I generally like my gossip fresh, but the only fresh gossip Richard Dreyfuss can hock up is about how … nearly twenty years ago … Bill Murray was a drunken, belligerent bully who once threw an ashtray at his face on the set of What About Bob?
Dreyfuss says:
“I didn’t talk about it for years. … Bill just got drunk at dinner. He was an Irish drunken bully, is what he was. … He came back from dinner [one night] and I said, ‘Read this [script tweak], I think it’s really funny.’ And he put his face next to me, nose-to-nose. And he screamed at the top of his lungs, ‘Everyone hates you! You are tolerated!’ There was no time to react, because he leaned back and he took a modern glass-blown ashtray. He threw it at my face from [only a couple feet away]. And it weighed about three quarters of a pound. And he missed me. He tried to hit me. I got up and left.”
Murray must also be a terrible shot if he was a couple of feet away and missed Dreyfuss’s melon completely with a large glass object. But still, it must be true, because one of Dreyfuss’s children, Ben, took to Twitter to confirm the story, claiming himself, his sister and his mom were all there:
“This story about Bill Murray is 100% true and I was on that set and so was [my mom and my sister]. And there’s actually worse shit that Bill Murray did during that movie to other people that my dad didn’t even mention because he probably felt it wasn’t his place.”
Until twenty years later.
Take a seat Dreyfuss family, this won’t make any of you relevant.

Wendy Williams has had a hot mess of a life lately, between rumors of a husband cheating, only to be confirmed as fact when the husband’s sidepiece delivered his baby; and then there was Wendy falling off the wagon into some kind of substance abuse issue; and then there was the ex-con younger sidepiece Wendy picked up; and now this …
Wendy’s son, Kevin Hunter Jr., has just pleaded not guilty to assaulting his father, Kevin Hunter.
Kevin Jr. appeared in a New Jersey court for an arraignment stemming from his May 21 arrest for ALLEGEDLY fighting with his father outside of a Krauszer’s Food Store in West Orange; apparently the first flew after Junior called his Daddy a “bitch.”
Lovely family, no?

Kim Kardastrophe has done it again. Something stupid, ignorant, self-serving and egotistical, I mean.
It seems Mrs. Yeezy created—well, she had someone create it for her and then she took the credit—a new “solutionware” line of undergarments. Not so bad, but then ...she named the line Kimono.
Yes. She did. And now she’s trying to defend herself against accusations of cultural appropriation and outright disrespect by claiming she did it for the Kulture.
Yes. She did. And in a statement—written by someone else no doubt, because she’s a Kardastrophe—Mrs. Yeezy said:
“I made the decision to name my company Kimono, not to disassociate the word from its Japanese roots but as a nod to the beauty and detail that goes into a garment.”
Right. Then she added:
“My solutionwear brand is built with inclusivity and diversity at its core and I’m incredibly proud of what’s to come … which is why I can appropriate the word.”
Okay, that last line was me. And to be fair, Mrs. Yeezy isn’t trying to stop people from calling kimonos ‘kimonos,’ and she’s not going to send a cease and desist letters to Japan. She just wants to make her followers who have a collective IQ of 4, think Kimono is a play on Kim and that she’s so savvy and smart.
Yes. She did. But then a group called Tokyo Fashion got involved and said:
“Kim [Kardastrophe] filed for a bunch of trademarks on the word "kimono" (even for actual kimono), which, if granted, would allow her to ban Japanese companies from using the word "kimono" in America.”
Yes. She did. And then the Mayor of Kyoto, Daisaku Kadokawa, told Mrs. Yeezy to, well, eff off, in the kindest way:
“I am writing this letter to convey our thoughts on Kimono and ask you to re-consider your decision of using the name Kimono in your trademark. Kimono is a traditional ethnic dress fostered in our rich nature and history with our predecessors’ tireless endeavours and studies, and it is a culture that has been cherished and passed down with care in our living. Also, it is a fruit of craftsmanship and truly symbolizes sense of beauty, spirits and values of Japanese.”
He goes on, but apparently it was enough to send Mrs. Yeezy back to the branding board because she’s changing the name.
I might suggest … ‘Kim? Oh. No.’ Might I suggest that the “solution” is for you to go away?

And now, in crazy … Rihanna posted a photo of herself on Instagram wearing H2T [that’s Tyra Banks speak—hence the crazy—for ‘head-to-toe’] Fenty schmata—which is Rihanna’s clothing line.
Now, Tyra didn’t comment on the clothes, or RiRi’s style or fashion sense or business acumen. Nope, Tyra commented that she thought it was a picture of her because she thinks she and RiRi could be twins.
Crazy. On her best day … never.

More crazy? Okurrrrrrrrrrr.
And I can say that now, out loud and proud because Cardi B had filed for a trademark on ‘Okurrrrr’—she says it’s her catchphrase—and her application was dee-nied by U.S. Patent and Trademark officials who explained that Cardi’s ALLEGED slogan falls under the category of “widely-used commonplace expressions,” and did not fit the bill to deserve a trademark.
Who knew Nicki Minaj worked for the Patent office?
Okurrrrrrrr?

Years ago Grace Jones played May Day in A View To A Kill and so executives on the newest Bond film, AKA Bond 25, thought it’s be cool to have her back again.
But, sadly, or not, the only was you’re gonna see Jones in Bond again is to watch A View To A Kill again, because she is not coming back after all. Well, she was back, and filming, but then she allegedly walked off set because she thought her role was too small.
Um, honey? Love you. Love everything about you. Thinking of being you for Halloween, but … Bond films are about Bond. It’s not called Grace Jones.
Okurrrrrrrrr?
Thanks to the Patent office for letting me say that without having to slip any coins to Cardi B.

I loathe Bill Murray, he of the cold eyes and smarmy smirk! Okurrrrrr? Am I using that right? I've also known drunks who couldn't hit the broadside of a barn with a shovel even while standing next to it, Okurrrrr? Boy, that's a stupid word :)
ReplyDeleteI certainly hope Tyra Banks was joking. If not, I have a very cute twelve year old ophthalmologist who can help her with her vision.
I was never a fan of Bill Murray but how racist is Dreyfuss, I grew up in an Irish Canadian area and knew hundreds of people that never touched a drop you whining ignorant p...k!
ReplyDeletedreyfuss - a has-been trying to return to glory? siddown, gurl.
ReplyDeletethe kraptrashian/jenner klan needs to be steamrolled over and ground to dust! ALL OF THEM!
and the rest of the trash can be bagged up and dumped!
KKK (aka Cheesy Yeezy) looks more akin to a Barbie doll than a real person. Personally I would much rather wear a kimono than any clothes designed by Cheesy Yeezy.
ReplyDeleteCrazy bunch of coconuts!
ReplyDeleteIn other words, Grace got a job, after all of these years, and then walked off the job...
ReplyDeleteAnd the Kimono thing? Someone else had to come up that, the Kardashians are too stupid to be think up anything so absurd.
Dreyfuss, who has a rep for being a nasty prick on the set and treating his female costars like shit is... complaining.
I was on the set of Ghostbusters II doing the electronic press kit to publicize the film for the studio. My camera person was shooting Murray getting ready to go in front of the camera. That's why they go it "behind-the-scenes." The next thing I know we are being asked to leave the set by the publicist because Bill was angry that he was being videoed. He then turned around and bought ice cream bars for the whole set. In short, he is an abuser. I wonder if he bought Dreyfuss flowers the next morning. I know he didn't buy my crew anything.
