Have you ever stopped to ask yourself why you believe that feeding people or entertaining people, both of which are labor, are not worthy of real compensation? Have you possibly subscribed to the theory that women are there to feed people, so it’s not labor but something they owe you? Maybe you have swallowed the idea…

I remember my first college economics class and this professor who proudly exclaimed if there was no minimum wage laws then people would be paid a lot more. I wonder if these people have ever acknowledged their naivety. Companies will always fight to pay as little as possible and seeing how much they fight against…

I’m sorry, did Gaga not pay Ryan Fischer a ton of money for recovering from getting shot? I know everybody loves her and worships her, but she was still his employer. As Ryan was shot while walking her dogs that the attackers were trying to dognap, she’s liable and ethically obligated to take care of him.

I think Sexy Crash and Racist Crash should be canon now.

I totally agree with you. Italy has a lot to answer for. As for the amount they gave her, that’s standard in Europe - they’re not litigious the way the US is and awards/damages are capped. Not that it’s a bad thing - the US is a ridiculously litigious society and I hope that shit doesn’t spread to the rest of the…

Unless I misunderstood the article, the film doesn’t mention her name and the filmmakers just said the story is directly inspired by Amanda Knox. There’s nothing illegal about that, or uncommon. I mean, Law and Order built a franchise on it. It would be different if they had made a movie that was about Amanda Knox,…

I’m sorry but anyone can tell a story that’s inspired by a true story. No one owns it. She doesn’t have to like it but the filmmakers didn’t have to consult with her either. Plus, she already wrote her book and made her money so anyone who wants to know what the real Amanda thinks, can just buy her book. 

Agreed.

As good as a lot of those films were, I would wager that most people haven’t seen them. Consider a year when a film like Titanic was nominated or any other film that just about everyone saw that becomes part of the public consciousness - that’s when the general public is interested. 

And a monorail.

People going on Letterman thinking he would play nice had a really bad team advising them. He pulled the same shit for decades—not excusing it, but he was a well-known bully as part of his shtick. Unless you had a client who was willing and intellectually able to go toe to toe with him—a la Cher or Madonna—you should…

That is tremendously cringe worthy.

So here is Paris in Vanity Fair, posing in the family home at 19. She seemed pretty aware of the celebrity life, liked being provocative (this photo was taken in 2000) and had been out and about in the celeb life almost her entire life, emotionally supported by her parents and family. Only to say that she had more…

Until this week, I thought the Conways were all in on a grift together to play all the sides — Kellyanne the Trump loyalist, George the never Trumper, Claudia the young liberal. I figured the fighting was just for show, and then once Trump left office they would parlay the internet celebrity into a reality show or a…

You probably thought that call was about you. 

I wouldn’t say I’m enjoying it, but don’t you find it mildly amusing?

What is: “please order this list of things that matter to Trump, starting with the least important.”

“Ex-girlfriend” and “New” are still bangers.

Unfortunately, when you take a coffee mug with you on your loving and wholesome relationship walk, you have to carry it with you the entire time—
