Yes, one would hope for change and growth, and it is possible, but I see no reason to believe this man’s views have altered one iota. Has he published articles discussing any such evolution of views? Not that I’m aware of.

But isn’t the real problem the fact that we’ve become a society willing to crucify people over a few old tweets?

I think that’s why they are SO spaced out. It’s only a few shows every few months to give her maximum time to recuperate if need be. Gaga has cancelled on me twice due to medical reasons, but that won’t stop me from getting tickets to one of these shows.

Maybe just don’t put your shitty thoughts on blast? I think we all know that there are certain lines that cannot be crossed in a public setting and if you have to describe your “humour” as “edgy” than it probably isn’t funny/amusing and likely just poor taste and risky. The desire to be adored or cool shouldn’t out

b is there for the already, or burgeoning, famous.  the point is to get ahead of the apology and admittance.  people are going to find it anyway, better you break the story and be up front about it than have to play defense.

b is specifically designed to get ahead of the issue because, if you’re even remotely famous, people are going to dig into the wayback machine and find them anyway.

Yep. A lot of Labour and Tory new crops of candidates have incredibly damaging social media histories. One Labour MP resigned recently for homophobic tweets.

It’s easy:

Precisely why I said a Vegas residency seems like a perfect “career compromise” for her. Still, if you see the documentary, it’s clear she sometimes flat out can’t get off the couch for all the pain. I really hope she’s doing better, but that’s a tough disease.

having never been, i’m reluctant to comment on the city, but i can confirm that the las vegas airport is a dim, dingy mess, and the first thing i noticed after deplaning was slot machines all up and down the terminal

If I had the money, I would see both! This woman knows how to put on a damn show. She comes from the cabaret and night club scene with classical training.

Yeah, a bit of boob diversity (beyond their thoughtful mix of perfectly-spherical pale boobs and perfectly-spherical brown boobs, all with identical nipples) would be the least they could do – at that could actually make a meaningful difference to a lot of women, many of whom have never really seen a realistic range

But was the public aware of it?
You don’t get this do you, it’s because the public at large knows about it now that made Disney react this way.
You’re a nerd, you think a mother with a child that has disabilities gives a fuck about you and your little movie?
Those are the people who now know about this, and that is a

I think he did lose his job eventually (I hope??) but not as soon as he should have — a handful of us went into the principals office at the end of senior year and wrote statements against him (to give just one example, one day he went around and guessed what we would all be when we grew up and he guessed one of my

Bumbling Hugh Grant works when it’s only temporary- because he’s nervous because he likes the lead actress so much, so he bumbles. As an “all the time” thing it doesn’t work nearly as well. That’s why Notting Hill is one of his stronger ones where he affects that personality- he doesn’t bumble all the time, just when

i wish we’d stop playing coy about the ‘leaked script’. it was very clearly a joke script. there were references to things that had happened only a few days earlier.

There was a book from 50 years ago (my parents have a copy) called “The Pooh Perplex” in which the book is interpreted (satirically) in Freudian, Marxist, “New Criticism”, etc. ways. 

Same thing happened with Faith Hill when she announced she was going to make a straight-up pop album absent of country influences. She was immediately beaten into submission by the Nashville music industry and went straight back hat in hand with the ridiculous Mississippi Girl (written by Brooks & Dunn).

I think the guy version of this is more verbal — stammering, fumbling, basically Hugh Grant at his most obnoxious. And it’s also dumb.
