As is usually the case with television shows I love, the gospel of Floribama Shore was preached to me long before I ever considered actually watching it. For nearly a year, friends like Jezebel’s Clover Hope and Megan Reynolds tried to convince me that MTV’s reality series about early twenty-something Southerners who…
Last night on Bleep Bloop Bleep Let’s Laugh With Celebrities With Mr. Good Time Smiley Pants, Ariana Grande promoted her new album sweetener with a very sweet (or saccharine?) story about the moment she fell in love with her now-fiancé, SNL star Pete Davidson.
When my coworker Ashley Reese dropped this tweet into our work Slack, complete with an accompanying “smudge it” (a common cry for content we’d prefer to un-see), Senior Writer Kelly Faircloth responded, “Get her name out of your goddamn mouth.”
Here’s a story that made me want to ring Elon Musk’s doorbell, push my way past a dueling Grimes and Azealia Banks, and steal the keys to the secret rocket Musk keeps in his garage in the event that he suddenly needs to leave Earth. Johnny Depp has accused his ex-wife Amber Heard, the woman he allegedly used to…
Priyanka Chopra gave me, by which I mean she gave all of us, the first non-blurry (though still sort of low-res due to the fact that a front-facing camera was used) look at the engagement ring worn to symbolize her decision to marry the youngest Jonas Brother Nicholas (aka Nick), who reportedly shut down an entire…
In the year 2000, writer-director Nancy Meyers released her only bad film, What Women Want, which went on to become the second highest grossing romantic comedy of all time (without adjustments for inflation). It starred Mel Gibson as a misogynist advertising executive who gained the ability to read the minds of…
Per everyone’s favorite TMZ spin-off/rip-off/whatever-you-want-to-call-it The Blast, the big ol’ public mess surrounding Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s ongoing divorce is entirely Jolie’s fault, and Pitt’s fired up over it.
While reading Grub Street’s charming and educational “Oral History of Four Loko In New York,” published Monday, I will admit I felt a little wistful. Do you remember 2008? I do, just barely, and if I push my brain hard enough I can see little flashes of a happier time through the haze that has since descended over all…
I saw a headline about Aretha Franklin’s rapidly failing health last night but chose not to believe it because it was unsourced on my Twitter timeline. Why burden myself with a terrible rumor before bed, I thought. Unfortunately, Detroit’s Local 4 News has just confirmed her illness with family members.
You say they’ve got nothing in common, no common ground to start from, and Wasser walked away. You say T-M-Z came between them, Us Weekly came between them, still I know one thing they claim. And I said, “What about Chateau Miraval wine?” You said, “I think I remember that place, and as I recall, it was a fairly sound…
Kanye West was on Jimmy Kimmel Live Thursday night, and guess what: he talked about his support for Donald Trump! West talked about other things, too, like his new album, his wife, and the struggles he faced at the beginning of his career, but let’s be honest, Donald Trump’s disgusting orange shadow blocks out…
Over the past several days, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie (who split up nearly two years ago) have taken their ongoing divorce to the court of public opinion, as both TMZ and more traditional gossip publications like People and Us Weekly have been receiving/publishing statement after statement (and presumably leak…
I have never read Ann Patchett’s 2001 novel Bel Canto, and after seeing the trailer for its upcoming better-late-than-never film adaptation starring Julianne Moore and Ken Watanabe, I’ve decided that I never will.
Some good news! Or good-ish news? I guess it’s just news. Whatever the case, Jerry O’Connell had some very woke and thoughtful things to say about his upcoming Bravo talk show’s recent naming controversy. The series—which is essentially Watch What Happens When Watch What Happens Live Is Hetero—was originally titled …
People published some beautiful images of shitbag former morning show host Matt Lauer galavanting on Havens Beach in Sag Harbor. We do not have the rights to these images (nor the budget to purchase them, because honestly what a waste), but you can either view them here or see my rendering above. (Not to toot my own…
Nearly a year after revealing her struggle to save her 26-year-old daughter India from NXIVM, a “sex-slave cult” masquerading as a self-help group for women, Catherine Oxenberg has shared that her daughter is out of the group and “moving forward” with her life and will “share her story when she is ready.” According to …
Early Monday morning, Jezebel’s culture editor Clover Hope shared a link to Vogue’s big September issue cover story on Beyoncé Knowles with the Jezebel staff. The link was an understandable to the morning news flow, as it marked Beyoncé’s first real interview in years! Also she made headlines last week for assuming…
Former Baywatch star Pamela Anderson and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange have been romantically linked for some time now, which is funny because Assange has been living in London’s Ecuadorian Embassy since the country granted him political asylum back in 2012. Per a report by Glenn Greenwald, Assange may leave the…
Because our universe is chaotic and vengeful, this marks the second time in one calendar week that I am writing a blog about one Chloe Grace Moretz. In a recent interview with the Los Angeles Times, Moretz explained that her upcoming 1990s-era gay conversion therapy drama, based on the popular book The Miseducation of…
While watching the second season of Queer Eye I decided that Bobby Berk is my favorite one (after Jonathan, who is everyone’s favorite by default) mostly because A.) I have an obvious respect for grown men who go by Bobby as adults, and B.) I came to the realization that in addition to being Bobby, I am probably “a…
