How dare she push for something that she was contractually entitled to, how dare she. I’m sure she probably was an asshole in other ways, but I’m on her side in not letting them slide on those ones.
What the fuck happened to VH1? I so miss Flavor of Love, Charm School, I Love Money...all their great trainwrecks. I like Love & Hip Hop but it doesn’t come close to the greatness that was classic VH1.
True story: My wedding dress was tea length and emerald green. I bought it at a local wedding dress shop from the bridesmaid section. I ended up going in for 2 fittings and both times the staff freaked out because they couldn’t find my dress. They could only find the bridesmaid’s dress. Then they’d hang their heads in…
Perhaps, but it still says something about the 20-somethings that are cool with dating teenagers. No matter how mature the teens in question may be, there is something super sketchy about an adult dating a 15-year-old. And I think that’s the issue—not that the kids can’t ever handle it, but that it is very unlikely…
I hesitate to be that commenter, but too late now: I really dislike the Jezebel vernacular that has the writers call any 40+ year old female celebrity Mom. I believe it is meant to be a respectful and affectionate expression, but it always strikes me as kind of belittling and dismissive. I worked with a great woman…
Well, Drew Barrymore isn’t a washed-up old maid, but I’m fairly certain she deeply regrets her teen drug abuse and child bride stuff, and rightly blames her mother for not providing any actual parenting.
I’m going to say something that is super unpopular, but I think things like this really matter. I had a good friend growing up who was a touring musician from mid-elementary school on (she was a prodigy, her dad was a moderately successful musician). She still went to regular school, but she had a professional life…
She has a career of having a very young juvenile face and figure (although devastatingly gorgeous) while simultaneously trying to be a total sexpot with sexy overly produced songs and outfits. Some of us find the combination to be awkward and cringe worthy. People her age probably find her to be charming and hot. And…
I love colored engagement rings, particularly emeralds. The green is gorgeous and usually looks so pretty against any color skin. No one I know who has a colored stone on their ring seems to run into any issues with it going with things. And worst case, if it really clashes, you can always temporarily take it off for…
It had actually no children in it and most of the people were fully clothed, it was basically incredibly tame erotica at best and had some youngish (not children) men in it in seductive poses..........basically a trumped up case by bully police.
Cool, I like how you just bring something up and say “Hey, maybe this, maybe that, maybe whatever, I dunno, but here’s an allegation I know almost nothing about but can’t be bothered to further investigate.”
The police found old surfer mags from the 60's where men had no shirts on the cover and the media reported it as child porn and ran away with the story.
Wasn’t child porn at all, but vintage nudest magazines with photos of families camping and playing sports in the nude.
The DA dropped the child pornography charges before they went to trial, and he was eventually charged with misdemeanor possession of obscene material, for which he plead guilty and was charged a $100 fine.
I watched this with my three year old over the weekend. She sat through the whole thing, which is a rarity for a non-animated movie. I loved Pee-Wee as a kid and it made me smile that we have a shared interest. I might have even showed her how to dance to Tequila!...
It was actually from when he opened the ‘91 MTV Music Awards:
Of course, many good times watching his stuff. I think it was a few years, but not too far out, after the 1991 incident when he had on a comedy special. His first comment was, “So, heard any good jokes lately?” in reference to the theater arrest. Glad he brushed it off and continued to make us laugh.
I’m subversive like that.
Brother, nice hat tip to the Hulkster.
