Episodes Of “30 Rock” Featuring Blackface Will Be Pulled From Streaming Services
Like Jimmy Fallon, Justin Trudeau, Robert Downey Jr, 30 Rock gave the world blackface. And the show, which ran from 2006 to 2013, featured blackface in four episodes. And Tina Fey has apologized and asked that the episodes be scrubbed from TV and streaming services. I wonder if Megyn Kelly has had another meltdown yet?
Hot Slut Of The Day!
THIS!
We never had one of these highly-technological artifacts in my house, because my mom was so technologically not advanced that her brain would shake in fear over having to change the channel to channel 3 when playing movies on our VHS player. But I had a friend who had one of these for his Atari (yes, I ran in ELITE circles) and watching him switch from TV to Game/Computer felt like being in THE FUTURE.
Leonardo DiCaprio Rented A Yacht For His Girlfriend Camila Morrone’s 23rd Birthday
Camila Morrone turned 23 on a yacht, which means she’s got two more years left in her before her 45-year-old boyfriend, Leonardo DiCaprio, realizes she’s aged out of his desired bracket and dumps her. Hopefully, Camila can convince him next year to celebrate her 23rd birthday again since 2020 is clearly a write-off. Then she’ll add a whole year to her DiCatchAHo shelf-life!
Rosario Dawson Is Moving To Newark To Live With Cory Booker
Rosario Dawson is living that Camelot dream… falling in love with a handsome Democratic politician and being whisked away to glamorous …Newark? Newark? OK, it ain’t the Kennedy compound in Cape Cod, but it’ll have to do.
Rosario and her boyfriend, New Jersey Senator Cory Booker, have been dating since the end of 2018. He’s been vocally gaga about Rosario, and she’s been spotted wearing a ring (but there’s zero engagement confirmation). They have been separated during the quarantine. 41-year-old Rosario chose to stay in California to take care of her dad who was recovering from cancer-related surgery. Many side-eyed the relationship as a PR stunt for Cory’s presidential campaign, but they’re really showing that their love is as real as Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello’s. Because Rosario has revealed that she’s taking the next big step in their relationship, and she’s moving across the country to live with 51-year-old Cory in Newark. Continue reading
Expect A Megyn Kelly Meltdown In 3…2…
Thanks to the Black Lives Matter movement, people have called for the banishment of statues of racists, HBO Max is including a special introduction about race with their showing of Gone with the Wind, Lady Antebellum changed their name to Lady A (or as we know them as, Lady Ay!LearnHowToFuckingGoogle), and now Quaker Oats is finally retiring Aunt Jemima for being a racist stereotype. “May we suggest that you just change her name to Aunt J?” said the re-branding experts known as Lady A(ntebellum).
Lady Antebellum “Privately” Chatted With Blues Singer Lady A About Taking Her Name
Last week Lady Antebellum, a country music group whose music I’ve never ever heard (I exclusively listen to Imagine Dragons [JK JK]) changed their name to Lady A after “many honest conversations” with their Black friends. Because now that everyone finally agrees racism is bad, using the word “antebellum”, which harkens back to the pre-Civil War South and slavery, is a no-go.
But, as we all know, the road to problematic is paved with good intentions. The band was immediately called out for using the same name as Anita White, a Black Seattle blues singer who’s been performing as “Lady A” for over two decades. The real Lady A was annoyed no one reached out to her or bothered to Google the name. A-greed! Now the band, in White Damage Control Level 2.0 (we saw Kristen Bell in this mode yesterday), has shared that they “privately” spoke to Lady A to discuss the name.
