Beyoncé Has Removed Kelis’ “Milkshake” From Her Song “Energy” And Now Monica Lewinsky Wants To Be Removed From “Partition”
The drama with Beyoncé’s new album, Renaissance started with early leaks. Next, Kelis screamed “I HATE YOU SO MUCH RIGHT NOW!!!” for using her voice on a track without permission. Then, Beyoncé removed an ableist slur from another track. And THEN OG songwriter Diane Warren felt a million bee stings from the ‘Hive (led by The-Dream) when she questioned their queen’s creative process. And now, after removing Kelis’ Milkshake from the track Energy, Monica Lewinsky is wondering if Beyonce’ can work her magic once again to remove her name from 2013’s Partition.
Monica Lewinsky Showed Up To The “Impeachment: American Crime Story” Premiere
Last night Monica Lewinsky made an appearance at the Hollywood premiere of FX’s Impeachment: American Crime Story. 48-year-old Monica wore a multicolored cocktail dress, which is cute enough, but I found myself thinking, “She’d look nice in blue.” And I’m not trying to be snide, she really would!

The Full Trailer For “Impeachment: American Crime Story” Is Here
After teasing the first look at the series that will no doubt go on to sweep the Emmys and cause massive waves of mid-90s nostalgia for The Gap, FX has dropped the first trailer for Ryan Murphy’s Impeachment: American Crime Story. We get to see what everyone looks like in Impeachment-era styling, wigs, and prosthetics. Just like all Ryan Murphy projects, the results are achieved with varying degrees of success. Some look great (Beanie Feldstein’s turn as Monica Lewinsky) and others will make you wonder what is going on (Clive Owen’s best estimate of a Bill Clinton impression). But I have to hand it to Ryan for the perfect casting in that television above. Nothing brings me back to 1998 like the low-frequency buzz and aggressive static shock I’d get from sitting too close to the ol’ Sony Trinitron tube TV.
Monica Lewinsky Made An Intern Joke About That HBO Max Email Eff Up, And Some People Didn’t Like It
Last Thursday HBO Max subscribers received an empty email with the subject: “Integration Test Email”, and a single-sentence message that read, “This template is used by integration tests only.” Huh? Soon the HBO Max Help account tweeted out an apology, explaining that an intern had done a whoopsies. Obviously, Twitter had a chuckle, and soon “Dear Intern” was trending; people shared their own intern fuck ups from back in their day and gave advice to the poor HBO Max intern (and all current interns, really). It was kinda sweet.
But who’s the most famous former intern of all time? THEE Monica Lewinsky. She tweeted, “dear intern: it gets better. <3 ps. don’t wear a beret for awhile, k?” Rather than be amused by the tweet or press the ‘like’ button, or, I dunno, ignore it, a bunch of people accused Monica of dredging up the past, roping Hillary Clinton into the conversation, and making herself out to be the victim. Really, Twitter?
FX Has Announced The First Few Names Cast In “Impeachment: American Crime Story”
Sadly, John Goodman was robbed and is not playing Linda Tripp in Ryan Murphy’s take on the Monica Lewinsky/Bill Clinton scandal. Sarah Paulson is. And after much back and forth, the third season of American Crime Story is a go.
Stephen Colbert Gave Bill Clinton A Do-Over For His Disastrous “Today” About Monica Lewsinky And #MeToo
While there are plenty of modern-day assholes in power to take down a peg given the #MeToo/Time’s Up movement, we’re also going through our history books to be like, “Yeah, the dude was a creep.” Gird your loins, James Buchanan! We’re coming for your ass! I kid, but one name that keeps popping up is Bill Clinton, as nothing gave Donald Trump pleasure during the campaign trail than to hold a mirror up and say “I know you are, but what am I?” anytime the Clintons would say he was a real ass to women.
Bill was on Today yesterday and had a hissy fit when Craig Melvin questioned him about Monica Lewinsky. Last night, Bill went on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to promote the book he did with James Patterson, and Stephen tried to toss the former president a life raft and mulligan his answer. You’d think Bill would have assumed he’d be asked about his handling of the Monica Lewinsky situation and would have rehearsed something fresh, right? Ehhhh…he kinda improved the second time around. I guess? Continue reading
