Was Scandal a documentary?
The worst part of election season in America is that you cannot escape it, no matter how hard you try. Somehow, throughout the madness (and this has been the longest month in politics), a little story has been creeping up that took me by surprise: a rumor about….Barack Obama and Jennifer Aniston.
I honestly cannot believe I am going to write the next few words, but there is a rumor swirling that Barack Obama and Michelle Obama have been separated and that he’s having an affair with Jennifer Aniston. Last week, the rumor took over Twitter, and after digging deep to see where this was coming from, I found that the rumor had been around since 2014. Election season is so bad that people are circulating a random rumor to feel alive again.
My question is, out of all the celebs in Hollywood, how did they come up with Barack having an affair with Jennifer Aniston? I know she’s a Democrat and has campaigned for various candidates, but that’s who they picked?!? I can’t even find a pic of them together, and Barack is a celeb whore; he has a pic with EVERYBODY.
There is no way Barack is leaving Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama for an actress on an Apple+ show. It’s just not realistic.
Britney Spears’s Biopic
Britney Spears is making a comeback, but not the comeback we expected. After her best-selling memoir ‘The Woman In Me’ broke records, it looks like Britney’s story is coming to the big screen. First Madonna, and now Britney, the Queen and Princess are going to dominate the film industry soon.
Universal Pictures landed the rights to her memoir. Jon M. Chu is expected to direct the film, and Marc Platt is set to produce it. Marc Platt is theater extraordinaire, Ben Platt’s father and I just know Ben is begging his dad to have him in the film regardless of the fact he’s way too old to be portraying any character in Britney’s life other than her father. If Ben, who is 30 years old but has the face of a 45-year-old divorced dad, can play a teenager in the film adaptation of Dear Evan Hansen, there’s no stopping him in this scenario.
Many are predicting Ben will get the role of Britney’s deadbeat dad/ex-husband/King of Wiggas, Kevin Federline, but I can’t imagine Ben in a fedora and baggy pants. Ben is gunning for Wade Robson, the frost tipped choreographer who broke up Britney and Justin’s teeny bop relationshp and help write the NSYNC hit, “Gone” about the breakup.
This movie is either going to be the greatest film ever or a high-end lifetime film, and I’m already seated for either version. I need it injected into my veins.
One whacking during Leo season for J.Lo
I can feel the tides are turning from everyone hating on J.Lo and now trying to give her a redemption arc, but not me. I will continue to be in hater mode until further notice. Though the clip below is not a direct hit on Jennifer Lopez, I can’t help but think she was at the top of Janet Jackson’s mind when she mentioned how many artists had to cancel their tours while hers was successful.
Do you want to feel old?
This is Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams’ daughter, Matilda, now.
I remember seeing her as a little toddler with Heath around NYC. Now she’s grown. WHERE HAS TIME GONE?
It feels like only a few years ago, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes announced the birth of Suri Cruise Noelle and shared it with the world on the cover of Vanity Fair.
But so much has happened since then, and it’s crazy to even think that Suri is now on her way to college. What’s even crazier is that Tom is still attached to Sc*entology, so he can’t have a relationship with his daughter, Suri, at all. So, instead of attending her graduation, he’s going to Twisters' premiere and will be at the Olympics closing ceremony (boo 🍅 🍅🍅) while Suri prepares for college.
Either way, it looks like Suri is thriving despite not having the guy who wants to jump out of planes.
Kids grow up so fast.
U.S.A. U.S.A.
It’s the time of year when I become insanely proud to be an American—the Summer Olympics are here. I feel like it’s been a century since the last Olympics because I definitely skipped Toyko, so now I have to be extra invested in this year’s games. I'm rooting for everyone on Team USA and Jamaica.
One thing I love about the Olympics, outside of the games, is the theatrics of the opening and closing ceremonies. They’re so grand, they’re camp, and I love how the host city shares its culture through song and dance. Paris gave us a memorable Opening Ceremony—up there with London and Beijing.
Here are my quick thoughts on the Olympics Opening Ceremony
Lady Gaga is Italian why is she here? That being said, the performance was very cute.
The dancers were on strike before the Opening Ceremony, but judging by their performance, the Can-Can dancers may have needed those extra days for rehearsal.
Ralph Lauren is part of the fabric of American fashion, but we must eventually move away from the country club elite uniforms.
The heavy metal and Marie Antoinette = The French know how to entertain
Threesomes are having a huge year, and I’m props to the French who reminded us they invented ménage á trois
The Minions are French?
Spent two hours watching this ceremony just for them to never reveal who is behind the faceless ninja?
Celine Dion, you are a national treasure, and we are so lucky to have you around and to be able to perform for us again.
xo,
