I Ain't One To Gossip But ...

Before we being snarking, a quick note ... we are away for the weekend at the beaches and will return Monday. Everyone stay safe, play nice, have fun ...

I’ll take Fired for $100 please.

Who is Jeopardy! executive producer Mike Richards?

Yup, Richards, the … briefly … favored replacement for revered host Alex Trebek has been kicked to the curb from the hosting and as the showrunner for both Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune after public outrage over resurfaced sexist comments he made on a podcast several years ago.

I’ll take Don’t Podcast Stupid Shiz for $200 please.

Oh, the woes of Erika Jayne from the Real Housewives Grifters of Beverly Hills. First, she was forced to downgrade from the manse to a wee $1.5 million Hollywood rental and gave up limos for a Range Rover after her soon-to-be ex-husband Tom Girardi was accused of embezzling millions from the families of the victims of a plane crash, as well as from his own law firm.

And it’s getting worse … now it’s Erika’s turn in the hot seat as she’s being sued for expenses paid by Tom’s firm which total $25 million. That’s the amount of money Tom’s firm put into the bank account of her LLC—which she said she didn’t know about because she never saw the books—and subsequently used to pay some of her own over-the-top bills.

Tom’s former law firm, Girardi Keese, had been auctioning off the couple’s personal belongings to help cover the debt, but now a trustee handling Girardi Keese’s bankruptcy case has found a way to hold Erika responsible for the money she owes. The trustee says Jayne knowingly allowed Girardi’s firm to pay for her expenses for 12 years; Jayne stands accused of having her company, EJ Global, of using Girardi’s firm to cover her American Express bill, pay assistants and have a glam squad … all totaling up to $25 million.

And they want those coins back. Gosh, maybe instead of rehashing her song XXpen$sive she should sing Bankrupt₵y.

If you recall, in 2018 Demi Lovato nearly died from a heroin overdose, so is it really surprising that they posted a video of themself smoking marijuana in their car that people were shocked?

No. It’s not. Lovato has recently been vocal about their decision to be “California sober” which they say means you can smoke pot and drink, but avoid the harder stuff. But that begs the question: Demi? Did you start your drug use with heroin, or did you work your way up to that near-death high after using pot and booze to get yourself there? And if that’s true, what makes you think you won’t do that again?

Stupid girl.

Kanye West, er, I mean Ye, is telling friends in the music business that he and Kim Kardastrophe are back together, though nobody believes it. Sure, the media whoring pair fueled reconciliation rumors after KK was spotte4d holding Ye’s hand while leaving his Donda listening party in Chicago last Thursday, after she joined him during a faux wedding ceremony while he performed a new track.

Apparently these new rumors Ye is spreading are an effort to make his new album open bigger than that of his rival Drake, who also has new music on the horizon.

Too bad Ye can’t let his music stand on its own.

For her part, Kimmy says she is still going through with the divorce, and was just trying to stay friendly with Ye and support his new music while parading around in a wedding gown and renewing her vows to her maniac ex during what was dubbed “performance art.”

Another way of saying “attention seeking.”

And that plan may backfire badly, because it looks like Ye’s new music may not sell better than Drake’s, especially given that a singing cartoon pig’s new album has gotten better reviews.

True y’all. Peppa Pig’s new album, Peppa’s Adventures: The Album, scored a 6.5 rating from music review site Pitchfork while Ye’s Donda scored 6.0. And Peppa was so happy that Peppa trolled Ye on Twitter:

“Peppa didn’t need to host listening parties in the Mercedes-Benz stadium to get that .5.”

The Tweet included a dropped microphone and pig snout emoji.

Ouch, bested by a cartoon pig.
