Darren Criss, on playing Versace killer Andrew Cunanan on American Crime Story:
“People tend to forget that people’s lives are much greater than the worst things they’ve ever done … He was a famously likable guy early in his life … I’ve met so many people that have met him throughout his life that really were quite fond of him and he was famously affable … And that’s when you go, ‘okay, we’re playing a person who has gone down this destructive path and how does something so promising become something so horrible?”
He was a sociopath, so he was able to con people into thinking he was this nice guy, but his entire life was a lie and it all caught up to him.

Gus Kenworthy, openly gay Olympic skier, agreeing with openly gay figure skater Adam Rippon that homophobic Vice President Mike Pence shouldn’t be leading the Olympic delegation to the Winter Games:
“I actually found out about it from Adam Rippon’s quote about it. I feel the same way as him. I think it’s not the person I would have expected, and I think it sends mixed messages because this is the first time we’re seeing out U.S. Olympic athletes competing in the Winter Olympics, and then we have someone leading the delegation that doesn’t support that, and doesn’t support the LGBT community, and has spoken against it. I think it doesn’t send the right message. It’s unfortunate, but it is what it is.”
It’s disgusting, and I think every athlete should avoid Pence at all costs to send a message that we are not that, not any more.

Kellyanne Conway, _____’s Minister of Propaganda, on Russian interference in the U.S. election:
"Let me tell you something. Everybody who said Donald Trump couldn't win. Everybody who said the election was all wrapped up. Every screaming headline, every wrong poll, every anchor, every pundit who said, ‘This is over, it's a joke, he can't win, he can't govern,’ tried to interfere in the election. And it didn't work."
So, it was the media who interfered, Kelly? Or was it the fact that the racists and bigots and so-not-Christian evangelicals came out of the woodwork to vote for hate?
Yeah, it’s that.

Samantha Bee, on _____’s Racist In Chief, Stephen Miller:
“Who is this enterprising slime mold on the Wonder Bread of democracy? Where did he come from? Is he just 10,000 spiders who really made a commitment? What happened to him? Did a janitor once accidentally buff his forehead?”
He’s a racist. That’s all.

Bernie Marcus, Home Depot co-founder, on Democrats being elitist:
“These are things that the Pelosi and Schumer group don’t have a clue about. It’s why they lost the election, it’s as simple as that. Clinton never knew about the real people out there. That’s why they lost the election, and that’s why they’re going to lose the next election for the same reason. You’ve got to use your brains! Democrats, use your stupid brains. You don’t have any brains!”
Says the man who supported _____. 2018 is coming, tool, and you’ll be eating your words. Oh, and …
PS Boycott Home Depot to show Bernie he’s a dick.

Sarah Huckleberry Sanders, fashion and makeup challenged White House Press Secretary, on Nancy Pelosi:
“I think Nancy Pelosi looks like that all the time. I think she should smile a lot more often. I think the country would be better for it. She seems to kind of embody the bitterness that belongs in the Democrat Party right now.”
Wow. A woman should just smile so people will like her?
I think Sarah Huckleberry should try lying less often and see what happens.
Oh, and run a lawn mower through those eyebrows every now and again.

Matt Gaetz, GOP Congressman, who brought a white nationalist to the SOTU this week and is now trying to walk it back:
“I met Chuck [Johnson] just briefly before allowing him to snag a ticket that was at our office, but some of the claims against Mr. Johnson are not accurate. He’s not a holocaust denier, he’s not a white supremacist, those are unfortunate characterizations of him but I did not know he was as perhaps infamous and controversial as he was when he came by and got a free ticket. He is not guilty of the things that some people have charged him of as it relates to those claims. Look, he’s a controversial figure, there were plenty of controversial folks at the State of the Union, I don’t just cavort with people who hold my views, I think there are people on the right and on the left who you spend time with, learn more about, understand their viewpoint.”
Let’s make this completely queer:
Gaetz’s guest at the SOTU, Chuck Johnson, has a crowdfunding site that raises money to defend Nazi leader Andrew Anglin and other far-right extremists.
Chuck Johnson was banned from Twitter in 2015 after soliciting donations to “take out” Black Lives Matter activist DeRay McKesson.
That’s who Gaetz brought to SOTU and is now trying to back away from.

Sarah Jessica Parker, on Kim Cattrall’s claim they were never friends:
“I found it very upsetting because that’s not the way I recall our experience. It’s sad, but I always think that what ties us together was this singular experience. It was a professional experience but it became personal because it was years and years of our lives, so I hope that that eclipses anything that’s been recently spoken. That many years spent doing something so special that people had a connection with it is such a privilege.”
Honey, you were co-workers. That doesn’t make you friends.
Take a seat and look at your shoe collection for a minute.
