I Ain't One To Gossip But ...

I kinda thought Kourtney Kardastrophe was the “normal” one in That Family, especially when she basically quit the show because she was fed up with the drama, real and imagined. But now we learn that, while traveling with new boyfriend Travis Barker, Kourtney went apeshit when he dropped his phone between their seats and demanded the plane wait for five minutes before taking off so she could find it.

Yes, Kourtney, by all means, let’s stop all incoming and outgoing plane traffic because your boyfriend lost his phone. Clearly, Kourtney is all Kardastrophe.

I imagine John McCain is looking down at his daughter Meghan—and, to be fair, don’t we all look down at Meghan—after her latest bit of histrionics.

Last season, The View cohosts did the show from their homes, but this season the show was back in the studio. And that’s why Meghan says she left the show; she didn’t want to leave her husband and baby in DC, where they live, to travel to NYC, so she packed her spoiled bratitude and quit.

But then she wrote a book and that story isn’t quite a highpoint for her so suddenly she now says she left because Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg were mean to her. In the book, Meghan explained that she decided to leave on her second day back from maternity leave when, during a disagreement with Joy Behar, Meghan said Joy had missed her, and Joy replied:

“No, I didn’t.”

And that’s when Meghan decided she just couldn’t stay, and then trotted out the right’s favorite buzzwords like “toxic” and “bullying.” And she also blames Whoopi, because one day in 2019—two years ago—Meghan says Whoopi told her to stop talking because, as usual McCain was shouting and trying to overtalk and out-talk everyone else and Whoopi was trying to get the show to a commercial and told Meghan to pipe it all the way down. Meghan responded, as adults do, by saying she wasn’t going to talk for the rest of the show.

She didn’t leave because she had a baby she left because she’s a self-entitled spoiled child. And Daddy doesn’t like that, hon.

Oh Madge, is there nothing you won’t do for publicity?

Madonna covers the latest issue of V Magazine in full Marilyn Monroe drag and tried to recapture the scene of Marilyn’s death from a  drug overdose in 1962. Marilyn was 36 at the time and Madge is 63 now and so she thinks there is something to those numbers to Madge. And then she has the balls to say she used photographer Steven Klein to capture the magic of Marilyn’s last photo shoot to pay “homage to the glamour and tragedy” of Marilyn.

Really? Recreating her death is an homage? The thirst of this bitch is real.

Madge, hon, you will never be Marilyn, so stop trying.

Will Smith has a new movie coming out that I won’t see because, well, Will Smith. And he also has a new memoir coming out that I won’t read because, well, Will Smith.

But in the book he claims that he went all Method Actor during the filming of Six Degrees of Separation and ended up falling in love with co-star Stockard Channing while married to his first wife Sheree Zampino.

Funny, though, that he only went Straight Method Actor because, though he says he fell in love with Channing while playing a gay character he refused to kiss Anthony Michael Hall in a scene that called for the two men to kiss.

Spare me your Method, Will, you’re just a homophobe, and an ass.

I did not know this and never had any idea, but actor Kal Penn has come out as gay and reveled that he is engaged to his partner Josh, whom he’s been in a relationship with for 11 years. The couple met when Penn took a break from acting to work in the White House under President Obama’s administration.

He wrote all about their love story—and their not-so-great first date—in his memoir, “You Can’t Be Serious,” saying Josh showed up to his apartment with an 18-pack of Coors Light and immediately changed the TV channel to watch Nascar:

“I thought, ‘This obviously is not going to work out.’ I have one day off from The White House and this dude is unironically watching cars go around and make left turns?”

A few months later Penn was watching Nascar every Sunday with Josh, and now they’re getting married. Congrats to the happy couple.

Score Another One For Our Side: _____'s Muslim Ban Raises Money For Syrian Refugees

Every once in a while something good come out of something hateful ....

Kal Penn, an actor best known for roles in Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle and TV’s Designated Survivor, as well as the former Associate Director of the White House Office of Public Engagement under President Barack Obama, recently received a particularly hate-filled Tweet after Hair Furor’s Muslim Ban went into effect.

Kal Penn thought of responding, then thought better of it, and instead Tweeted out that he had set up a crowdfunding site for Syrian refugees, hoping to raise a few thousand dollars:

“To the dude who said I don't belong in America, I started a fundraising page for Syrian Refugees in your name. Donating To Syrian Refugees In The Name Of The Dude Who Said I Don't Belong In America"

He reached his goal of a few thousand dollars in just twenty minutes and as of this morning he had raised over ... wait for it ... $850,000!

He said he was surprised but then perhaps he shouldn’t have been because he knows that most people ... most people ... understand that banning people from our country who have had considerably more serious “vetting” done to them than any single one of the people in Trump’s staff or cabinet posts, is un-American.

And as the cash poured in—with people making donations under names like “Chief Strategist Steve Bannon,” “#Saynotobigotry,” “Tiny Trump Hands,” “Paul Ryan’s Lost Testicles,” “Mike Pence,” and “Donald ClownfaceVonf---stick Trump” — Penn gave updates on Twitter as he also continued to raise the goal.

Stop over and give a little if you like because it just proves that, while _____ and his band of white nationalists thinks they’re on the right side, the truth is that they are not.

So score another one for the Resistance.
