I’ll repeat it here: Why are we still hounding Barsanti when Matt Schimkowitz is way way waaaaaaaaay hackier??? Also why are we even still here?

None taken, being in my 20's you could see how stupid the end of this show was. Just like older generation than me watched Superfriends and could see it was shit and I couldn’t.

it's pronounced "Throat-warbler Mangrove"! 

Chapman was without doubt the highlight of the night, just an incredible performance.

Your write-up on Miley is missing one crucial fact... her performance, from every “exaggerated move” to her outfit to performing like “a rockstar by way of Vegas”, was clearly a Tina Turner tribute.

I think the issue is here, that it would be very difficult for Justin to appear contrite regarding the relationship and also still perform some of his biggest hits. It would be really hard to offer some heartfelt apology (or grovel and beg, which is what this readership would prefer) then transition into “cry me a…

Whoops! Just said the same thing, didn’t see your comment.

Almost like a woman with a book to sell and a guy with an album to promote are rehashing twenty-year-old gossip in order to get press attention. “Hey, remember when either of us were culturally relevant? Let’s go after those millennial nostalgia dollars and talk about that again.”

I’ve been a Jezebel reader for many many years. I don’t remember a time when they didn’t cover petty celebrity feuds

Ewww. What has Jezebel turned into? This sounds like the National Enquirer level bullshit, created for morons. Gross. Do better Jezebel, this 7th grade bully bullshit is getting old.

With all due respect, you sound completely unhinged. They were young, they were in a relationship neither were ready for and both of them cheated. After doing a song referencing her cheating - you know, like so many female artists do - he moved on, the way most of us d.

Well, healthcare isn’t a ‘job benefit’ where I live (Australia), you just get public healthcare ED (ER)/admission/ICU/surgery through the public system for no charge whether you’re employed, unemployed or even never worked in your life. So, to paraphrase David Tennant fThe Day of the Doctor, “Maybe a little bit…

There are plenty of legitimate reasons an actor may turn down roles. I’m guessing that her particular reason would be that she has pre-K twins, and some of the shoots had time/travel requirements that would have taken her away from her kids too much. So she’s actually engaged in quite a bit of labor, just not the kind…

America’s healthcare system is garbage.

That access to basic health care in the USA is dependent on whether or not you’re working is stupid. Dystopic might be stretching it, stupid certainly isn’t.

Stockholm is calling. They want their syndrome back.

What, exactly, is Taylor Swift supposed to say to her?

Maybe the real problem here is with you and your framing. Let’s try it another way:

This is where women are in 2024: They get to make their own choices, including the choice to apologize to someone with whom they shared a relationship that was unhealthy and…

Maybe because she’s an unreliable narrator, and her ghost writer spun things to make her look better? Maybe because there’s no way he can respond to the allegations without looking like an even bigger asshole?

Everything you say is a good point. She might have apologized too because now that all the secrets are out it is cathartic, and she doesn’t want JT’s career to suffer now for things that happened 20 years ago. On the scale of reasons someone’s livelihood should be destroyed being a dumb kid in a teenage relationship…

Maybe she realized that publicly not liking her ex made her an unwitting field commander to an army of internet loons. Dialing back is a reasonable choice in an unreasonable world.
