Jennifer Aniston Will Be One Of The Final Guests On “The Ellen DeGeneres Show”
I remember a time when Ellen DeGeneres was America’s second-favorite dancing queen behind ABBA until it came to light that her real favorite type of dance is stomping over her staff’s feelings with mean words. Of course, she immediately began to shimmy her way through the allegations with apologies, but they all fell upon deaf ears and ultimately led to her long-running talk show The Ellen DeGeneres Show getting a complete re-tooling in the form of a goodbye! Although she’s still trying to convince us she’s the same lovable, rhythmless dancing fool she was of days passed we no longer buy that act anymore. So in an attempt to get people to watch her sinking ship one last time, Ellen announced one of her final guests will be her very first guest, Jennifer Aniston.
Prince Harry And Meghan Markle’s Animated Series “Pearl” Got Cancelled By Netflix
Not too long after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced they were quitting life as senior royals and leaving the UK for the land of opportunity (cue the American Tail theme), Harry and Meghan got a podcasting deal with Spotify, and Netflix threw a ton of money at them to make a variety of projects, including documentaries, feature films, scripted series, and shows for the kids. Well, one of the shows they had in production is not happening and Netflix cancelled it before it even debuted.
J.K. Rowling Responded To Vladimir Putin Comparing Her “Cancellation” To The West Trying To “Cancel” Russia
J.K. Rowling took some time out of her busy schedule, counting her money and inventing binarily gendered fantastic beasts, to respond to Russian President Vladimir Putin, who took time out of his busy schedule, committing war crimes and obsessively polishing his desk, to compare his country’s plight, being sanctioned by Western powers, with that of J.K.’s, being made fun of on Twitter.
Dakota Johnson Hates The Phrase “Cancel Culture,” Feels Sad That Some Of Her Co-Stars Might Not Act Again
Dakota Johnson had a serious, in-depth chat with The Hollywood Reporter because she’s in a serious movie, The Lost Daughter, which means she’s on that awards season promo train, and – choo choo! – she gets more real than that time she called out Ellen DeGeneres’ ass for bailing on her birthday party. Dakota opened up about growing up famous (her parents are Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson), and how she wanted to be an actress forever and only ever saw herself as an actress, so it’s probably a good thing she ended up being successful at it (god bless you, St. Nepotism!). But she also got on the topic of “cancel culture,” something that several of her former co-stars have experienced the wrath of. Well, guess what, she’s not a fan of cancel culture, and she’s bummed right out that some of those former co-stars might disappear from Hollywood forever.
Dave Chappelle Says He’ll Meet With Critics Of His Netflix Special “The Closer” If They Can Meet His Demands
Please, hold some space in your heart today, for a rich man is crying. Though he is in possession of an embarrassment of riches and fame beyond compare, Dave Chappelle is the victim of a cancellation most cruel. Gone are the heady days of universal adoration and praise his jokes once inspired throughout the land. In a video taken at a sold-out show in Nashville, Tennessee, this elder statesman of stage and screen has offered a message to “that community” (“the LBGTQ [sic] community”) that is trying to “cancel” him for transphobic remarks he made in his Netflix comedy special, The Closer, which prompted a protest by some Netflix employees. Dave says he’s willing to talk to them, but only if they meet his demands. And this hostage taker is all “Don’t move or Free Speech here takes one to the head!”
“The Activist” Is No Longer A Reality Competition Show, But A Documentary Special
CBS finally realized that their idea for a Shark Tank-style competition show for humanitarians was a shitty one. I’m shocked. If only there was a charity out there that could help me with the rehabilitation needed to recover from this news. But I’ll have to wait to see if any such charity is mentioned in the upcoming documentary The Activist: This Was A Terrible Idea For A Reality Show.
