She once bragged during an interview that an ex-boyfriend was a pimp and that she “stole his bitch” and then she started exploiting the woman sexually and financially. The interviewers keep trying to make sound less horrifying than it is, but TH doubles down and goes on to explain she called the woman dogface. (Starts…

I worked at a Slack’s decades ago and salt, pepper, ketchup and hot sauce (or mayo) was an extremely common and occasionally disturbing (that mayo) way people ordered their cheesesteaks.

I remember McConaughey being on Live with Kelly and whoever. Her co-host that day was Christian Slater. McConaughey brought up his previously thinning hair and Slater, who has had a hair transplant, was like, “Transplant, right?” And McConaughey was like, “Regenix!”

Exactly. People who excel at sports are genetic outliers to begin with. While becoming an elite athlete certainly takes years tremendous discipline and training, all of them have some genetic advantage that will ultimately separate them from every other kid who works just as hard.

Indeed! Radiant and regal.

The earrings and ring that Amanda Gorman are wearing were gifts from Oprah. When Maya Angelou read at Clinton’s Inauguration, the coat she wore was a gift from Oprah. O wanted to do the same for Amanda. However, Amanda told her that she had already bought a coat in her favorite color. So, Oprah gave her the gold hoops…

You are a kind and generous person to give her that much credit.

Once this shitbird is gone, could folks in the media do me a favor and just stop talking about him?

Jam and preserves aren’t the same thing; not in ingredients and not in how they are cooked.  Fresh jam is highly perishable even with refrigeration. Hence, why the mold developed (a point of confusion in the Eater article).

You mean the public isn’t clamoring for a show involving Rachel Brosnahan being obsessed with a golden prosthetic arm?

Is there another popular show in recent history (or ever?) that has had this much tragedy (Corey Monteith, Naya Rivera) or fucked up news (that fucking pedophile and Lea Michele-as-a-racist-nightmare) associated with it?

Jeeeeeesus. What goddamn rock do these people live under? I’m younger than Handler and Chastain and I know who the fuck Farrakhan is and the vile shit he said over and over and over again. He’s a straight up anti-Semite who also loves Scientology (???) and damn near endorsed Trump in 2016 (!!!!).

HBO Max is just plain weird. Its UI feels ugly and sloppy and I don’t understand why both HBO Now and HBO Max exist. Also, they don’t seem to have a handle on their licensing deals. HBO, u ok?

My thoughts exactly. I can’t imagine how they thought this would be received vs. the reality of it. My best guess is that someone (but who???) thought this would play out well for Affleck by....I don’t know. Make him look like he’s in a relationship with someone and not just off the wagon with a drinking buddy hookup…

Side note: I am fascinated by these joint-PR-campaign fails. It’s like when Tom Hiddleston trusted in Taylor Swift’s PR game and it blew up in his face.

Totally possible. Or maybe I’m just cycincal. It’s true love and they’re making these hilariously bad decisions together.

Is she trolling the paparazzi when she’s the one who calls them everyday?

Don’t be skeptical. That’s the basic recipe/procedure for no-churn ice cream (heavy cream, condensed milk and flavoring of your choice). It works!

My question is - and it is a sincere one - what IS relevant regarding Reade’s allegations?

Disagree.  Ryan Seacrest is Merv Griffin 2.0
