Here are some photos of Kim Kardashian out and about yesterday. She attended the Daily Front Row’s 3rd Annual Fashion Los Angeles Awards, then she went out to eat at Mr. Chow afterwards. Doesn?t it look like she?s wearing a wedding dress? She might be. This dress is Givenchy, designed by Riccardo Tisci for his 2011 line. The Givenchy ?signature? is that it looks like mold is growing on the dress. So high-fashion!
Meanwhile, I guess we?re still writing headlines based off episodes of Keeping Up with the Kardashians. As we discussed last week, Kim?s current KUWTK storyline is that she really, really wants a third baby. Her pregnancy with Saint was difficult, as was her first pregnancy. Her doctors didn?t believe that she could carry a third pregnancy to term. Apparently, Kim had some kind of surgery to improve her chances of a third pregnancy, but it looks like it?s still not going to happen. So now Kim is considering surrogacy.
Kim Kardashian West is ready for more kids! On Sunday?s episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Kim reflects on her past and looks forward to expanding her family with Kanye West, but it won?t be easy.
?I?d just love nothing more than to expand my family and just know that I have this world at home that?s safe,? Kim revealed in the episode. ?And if for some reason I left this earth sooner than I really wanted to, then my kids would have a support system at home so that I know that they would be OK if I wasn?t here.?
Throughout episode, the 36-year-old reflected on the hardships that she has experienced after giving birth with North and Saint. Through it all, Kim knew that getting pregnant again would be high risk, but she still wanted to try and have a third child. During the episode, Kim underwent a procedure to help her become able of carrying another baby if she chooses to, but it doesn?t work.
?I?m not sure it?s worth it,? Kris Jenner tells the camera. ?I?d very much like Kim to have another baby. But I?m worried about Kim having another baby.?
?Having more kids is definitely going to be a struggle,? Kim explained. ?I?ve gone through so much with really bad deliveries that the doctors don?t feel like it?s safe for me to conceive again myself. This surgery is really the one last thing I can try. I want my kids to have siblings and I want to know that I did everything I could to make this happen.?
During a conversation with her sisters Kourtney and Khlo?, Kim revealed that she and Kanye were leaning toward surrogacy.
?After everything I went through, the surgery and it wasn?t successful and didn?t do anything,? she told her sisters. ?Kanye was really nervous about the surgery ? but I know he would want to have more kids. I feel like surrogacy is the only option for me. Kanye and I are going to look into other options and see what we are comfortable with,? Kim went on to say. ?I?m definitely leaning towards I want to try [surrogacy]. After talking to Kanye ? I always knew surrogacy was an option, now it?s my reality,? Kim said in her interview. ?Whatever is meant to be will be.?
[From People]
I?m sure many people believe that for Kim, surrogacy was always her first choice and she?s just going through the motions of ?oh I wish I could pregnant again.? I think that?s a little bit harsh? Like, she?s superficial and terrible and of course she hates being pregnant? but she also went through two tough pregnancies and I honestly believe that she would have gotten pregnant again if her doctors had given her the thumbs-up. So, yeah? surrogacy. I bet it will happen soon.

Kirsten Bell is still dutifully promoting The CHiPs movie her husband Dax Shepard made, even though it’s pretty much DOA. It could break even with international and DVD sales but it doesn’t look likely. Plus it just got skewered by critics and stands at 19% on Rotten Tomatoes, which also explains its bad box office – poor word of mouth. It seems like she’s everywhere lately though. I’m only going to cover a couple of her recent interviews because, like many other people, I’m a little burnt out on her and her husband. First off, here’s an interview she did with Bustle where she addressed, in a roundabout way, the criticism she gets in the media. She talked about herself in the third person. I’ve never done this and I can’t remember the last time I heard someone do it in person, but I guess referring to themselves in the third person is a thing for celebrities.
On not caring what people think of her
“You can see me however you want to see me. I try not to look too often to how I?m perceived. I think it messes with your head… my life motto is that I like being an actress, but I love being Kristen.”
On persuading her husband, Dax Shepard, to give her a role in CHiPs
“I was just a d*ck to him at home for awhile. No, I did threaten to do that. But we actually just had a long talk about it, and I said, ‘whatever you decide, I totally get it.’”
On working to ensure that their real-life chemistry didn’t affect the less-than-stellar relationship between their characters
“He made a very good point, which is why he?s a good director ? he said, ‘I don?t want anyone even subconsciously to be rooting for us, during this movie.”
[From Bustle]
I understand why famous people try not to focus on how they’re perceived or how they try to separate themselves from their public persona, which is sounds like Kristen is doing. Maybe that’s why she’s calling herself by her own name – that’s someone she keeps separate and private.
Kristen also has a new interview with Parents magazine which was posted on Facebook Live. She’s promoting her relationship with Tide detergent in this case. She talked about telling her children, she has daughters Lincoln, 4, and Delta, 2, with Dax, about race. I don’t know if I get what she’s saying here.
Bell referenced a chapter in the book Nurture Shock, titled, ?Why White Parents Don?t Talk About Race.?
?You think, ?Oh they?re going to see that I have a black friend, and they?ll know it?s OK.? That?s not the way humans work. We evolved and 200 years ago if we met in a field we would have killed each other if we were from different tribes because the ‘other’ is meant to protect you evolutionarily.”
?Kids will notice differences,? Bell explained. ?So we talk to them about it ? like, our best friend is Indian, and we?re always like, ?Look at this, isn?t this cool? The difference between Monica?s skin and Mommy?s skin? And they?re different colors. Did you know everybody is a different color? We had our first black president??
She added, ?You talk to them about it, so the idea of ?the other? is never left alone in their brain.? Bell believes that if parents don?t acknowledge other cultures or the differences between individual human beings, kids may draw their own conclusions based on fear.
?Differences are also important, cultures are important, and it?s important to acknowledge those because if you ignore them, your kids are seeing them, [and] they?re coming to their own conclusions. The topic needs to be open,? she said.
[From Huffington Post, some quotes added]
Her daughters are young so maybe this makes sense in this context but something about this isn’t rubbing me the right way. It’s like they’re pointing out to their kids that people are different and making a big deal about it. She’s so extra though it’s hard to know exactly what she means. Here’s a clue though. Dax once said Kristen had a “fetish” for Indian men as if being attracted to anyone but a white guy was a “fetish.”

The 52nd Academy of Country Music Awards were held in Las Vegas last night. Considering the absolutely insane lull in gossip for the past few weeks, I was really hoping that the ACMs would bring some old-fashioned country music drama. But from what I can see? there wasn?t much drama? Even the fashion was underwhelming, although I?m still going to stretch out these photos into two posts. You can see the list of ACM winners here.
One of the big red carpet moments was Nicole Kidman arriving with her husband Keith Urban. First, a word about Keith Urban: the couple who Botoxes together, stays together. And Urban?s lifts are next-level! As for Kidman?s style? she wore head-to-toe Alexander McQueen. I find this dress to be very fussy. It?s not like this would be better on someone else, or maybe better in a different color. It?s just a very odd design. She literally has a little fox on one boob and an owl on the other boob. It?s very? unusual. I love her earrings though.
Kelsea Ballerini wore a green Monique Lhuillier gown. I like that it?s something different, but I think the two-tone look makes this seem almost childish? It would have been a more mature look if it was all one color. I don?t know? she looks like someone?s 13-year-old little sister was roped into being a bridesmaid.
Here?s Luke Bryan and his wife. She?s very pretty, but she?s very, very orange.
Here?s Dierks Bentley and Cassidy Black. I?m not into him at all. Weirdly, I find Luke Bryan to be WAY hotter.

Here?s Part II of the fashion photos from the 52nd Academy of Country Music Awards, which were held in Las Vegas last night. You can see the list of ACM winners here. Miranda Lambert was a big nominee and a big winner at the ACMs. She walked the red carpet with her boyfriend Anderson East, and Miranda wore this Steven Khalil gown. Um? is it wrong to love this? I find Miranda?s style to be so hit-or-miss, but I think she hired a great stylist after her split from Blake Shelton, and that stylist has been doing great work. Like, this feels princess-y and bridal, and yet? I love it. It totally works. Miranda also made history last night: she?s the first-ever country music star to win Female Vocalist of the Year for eight consecutive years. This dress reflects that too: she?s literally a country music princess.
Real question: has Carrie Underwood ever been to an awards show and NOT worn some pageant-looking gown? Carrie wore this tulle-and-sparkles LaBourjoisie dress and? no, I?m not feeling this at all. Although give her some credit: she probably felt like ?When in Vegas,? because this absolutely looks like a showgirl?s outfit.
Faith Hill wore Michael Kors. It?s not as glitzy as I would have expected, but I still like it. She looks like she?s going to a business luncheon. The color is gorgeous.
Hillary Scott in Proenza Schouler. Oooh, girl, NO!!! The color is great but this design is a total fail. And to be completely fair: this would be a fail on someone like Karlie Kloss too. The ?ab window? feature on a dress needs to NOT be a thing.

Just yesterday my kid and I were trying to decide if we were desperate enough to see Boss Baby (we weren’t, but a lot of other people were). He saw the trailer and asked if that was Alec Baldwin, whom he knows from SNL. I said it was and then remembered that Alec, who now is the lead voice in a kid’s movie, once chewed his 12 year-old daughter out in a voicemail message. I showed my kid the Dora the Explorer remix of Alec’s message and he thought it was hilarious. My point is that if you told me Alec hasn’t had a drink for over 30 years I wouldn’t believe you. He’s allegedly been sober since 1985 though. Alec told his story to George Stephanopoulos of ABC News:
What if you hadn?t stopped drinking in February, 1985?
I think that I was one of the people who was lucky that it stuck. Therefore therif I didn?t get it then I would have gotten it eventually. I know that at that time and what I described, overdosing on drugs, which I kept private for years, I think that I would have gotten it eventually but I?m glad I got it when I did.
Not many people get sober when they?re young. I got sober when I was about to turn 27. Those two years that I lived in that white hot period as a daily drug abuser, as a daily drinker to my misery, that was a tough time. There was really a lot of pain in there.
[From ABC News]
Good for him for getting sober and sticking with it if that’s what he did. I’m still questioning whether he was sober that entire time, but I guess sober people can be rageaholics too, people in the throes of their addictions don’t have a monopoly on anger. Alec seems to be sharing this story now because he has a new memoir out this week, called Nevertheless. It sounds like he’s co-opting the women’s movement motto “Nevertheless, she persisted” doesn’t it? He has another interview with CBS News where he explains how he got into drugs when he first moved to LA in the 80s. He said “that’s the way it was back then, everyone was drinking and drugging.” It’s still that way, it just depends on the people you spend time with on a daily basis.
Also, Alec talked about his encounters with the paparazzi, he’s has several run-ins with them, and he said they were after “a picture of my wife and her fit little body running down the street.” He claimed that one photographer tripped and fell on top of a baby in a stroller in front of his building and that “if I decide to take the law into my own hands in some of those cases that’s just want I’ve got to do. I don’t really worry about it that much.” He’s assaulted paparazzi several times and he never hesitates to put people on blast and tell his side of the story. If a photographer fell on a baby in front of his building, don’t you think he would have told the press at the time?

As many are aware by now, we are in full Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez relationship rollout. A J.Lo rollout always has an accelerated timeline so she?s right on track. The News Leak happened last month, followed by photographic evidence and then a romantic, childless getaway. Friday saw A-Rod?s confirmation of the relationship while appearing on The View so we only have J.Lo’s confirmation and then ring speculation to go!
Rodriguez publicly confirmed their relationship onThe ViewFriday, and the former Yankees playercouldn?t hold back his praise for the pop superstar.
?It?s obvious. We?ve been having a great time,? he said when asked directly about whether or not he and Lopez are officially an item. ?We?re having a great time. She?s an amazing, amazing girl. One of the smartest human beings I?ve ever met and also an incredible mother.?
Rodriguez added that theShades of Blueactress is also down-to-earth, despite her megastar status, something that he very much appreciates. ?She just likes simple things,? he said. ?I mean, she?s a very, very simple person. Loves family. Is a great sister. Is a great daughter.?
As far as facts most people don’t know about Lopez,Rodriguez shared that she ran track in high school and is actually very athletic, before divulging her guilty-pleasure snacks.
“She would kill me if I said too much,” he said, before spilling that she indulges on “chocolate chip ice cream and chocolate chip cookies.”
[From US Magazine and USA Today]
You can watch the clip here. When I read these quotes, I was ready to pull out my feminist soapbox and trounce this guy. But if you watch it, the nonsense is on The View?s panel, not A0Rod. For instance, as I mentioned in the Mayim Bialik post, I?m not crazy about people publicly referring to women as ?girls.? (I am not crazy about it in private but I understand that could fall under ?friend-speak? preferences.) But Sara Haines introduces the subject of J.Lo by saying, ?Supposedly ? you have a new lady boo?? So A-Rod’s answer wasn’t bad. And his checklist of her ?accomplishments? being to whom she is

| | Susan Sarandon loves how people are 'energized & awake' in Trump's America | | Added 7 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

At this point, can I just say outright that Susan Sarandon’s politics are a flaming pile of garbage and just leave it at that? Or will someone say, ?You need to provide receipts?? Fine, here are the receipts: over the past year, she has said some profoundly ignorant things about Hillary Clinton, Jill Stein and Donald Trump. She?s a purity-test progressive and Bernie-or-Buster who honestly believed that Trump was a more palatable candidate than Hillary Clinton. When she was rightfully criticized after the election, she spewed a bunch of bulls–t about how at least people are ?awake? now.
So, Sarandon appeared on Friday night?s episode of Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Colbert is no longer doing celebrity fluff and stupid skits. He?s leaning into politics in a big way, and his ratings have gone up as a consequence. So when Sarandon sat down, he started in on her about her politics.
I like the fact that Colbert didn?t even give her a chance at the beginning to talk about Feud, he just went IN on politics straight away. He asked her, ?You said, ?Some people feel that Trump might bring about the revolution immediately.? A) How?s that going? What?s your assessment of how ?the revolution? is going?? This is what she said:
?Well, I?m so happy that you asked ? not really, but OK, we?ll get into it. Well, have you seen this many town hall meetings of people from all parties storming and knocking on the doors of their representatives and complaining and screaming and yelling?? Sarandon asked. Colbert replied, ?Not since 2010.?
Sarandon wasn?t having it. ?No. Not since the ?70s, I think. This is really out of control. Now there are town hall meetings everywhere. I saw one in California where they were screaming about ICE coming in and taking people. I mean, people are really awake now because ?the cracks let the light in,? as Leonard Cohen would say. You need that ?crack?…Like, Goldman Sachs has been in our politics since forever and now we?re noticing because this guy is such a bozo, he?s doing everything so badly, that he?s not slick like everybody else. All the fracking that?s been going on? Now everybody?s awake, they?re energized? They?re calling their senators; they?re donating to all of these groups. You?re funnier, don?t you think? It?s doing great things for comedy.?
[From NY Magazine]
She goes on to say that, basically, everything is going to plan and the next step – I guess? – is ?identifying real progressives? who will promise to get us healthcare, etc, and I’m sure that in Sarandon’s delusional little 5-year-old mind, what we really need now are more progressive purity tests. Here?s what I don?t get though, Susan: did we really NEED Emperor Bigly Fists in office to do all of this? I get her point about Bigly being such a shock to the system and how he?s spurred all of this activism, etc. But I still don?t understand how our current reality is somehow preferable to the alternate reality wherein Democrats, progressives and moderates all came together to vote Hillary Clinton into office and then set about dragging her to the left during her presidency. That somehow being ?awake? now suddenly justifies the enormous sh-tshow that is our country under Emperor Bigly.
And I absolutely loathe this concept that people only became f–king AWAKE right now. Millions of people were plenty awake before Bigly. Those are the people who voted for Hillary Clinton because we took this sh-t seriously. We were already awake and we decided that a moderate Dem would always be a better ally than Bigly.

| | Tina Fey to white women: Turn off HGTV & pay attention to politics | | Added 7 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |
|

|

The headlines on this story are sort of unfair overall. Huffington Post went with ?Tina Fey Drags White Women Who Regret Voting for Trump.? But Tina Fey wasn?t exactly dragging anyone, I don?t think. Fey took part in a big benefit event for the ACLU in New York on Friday. As part of the benefit, Fey did a discussion with two ACLU people and that?s where she ?dragged? white ladies. Except that she was basically telling white women to check out MSNBC instead of HGTV. Like, the subtext of this is ?acknowledge your privilege, white ladies who voted for Trump.? But it that ?dragging??
White women love Tina Fey, but Tina Fey isn?t too happy with white women, especially the ones who voted for Donald Trump. During ?Stand for Rights: A Benefit for the ACLU? on Friday night, Fey sat down with New York Civil Liberties Union executive director Donna Lieberman and ACLU deputy legal director Louise Melling for a conversation about the battle for women?s rights and the responsibility each of us have to fight for protections that might not directly impact our lives.
After the election, exit polls revealed that a majority of white women ? 53 percent, to be exact ? supported Trump in the election, compared to the 43 percent who voted for Hillary Clinton.
?A lot of this election was turned by white, college-educated women who now would maybe like to forget about this election and go back to watching HGTV,? Fey said. ?I would want to urge them to like, ?You can?t look away? because it doesn?t affect you this minute, but it?s going to affect you eventually. Again, open two windows. Do watch HGTV. [Don?t] turn our attention away from what is happening.?
After questioning Lieberman and Melling about the current state of reproductive rights, Fey expanded her plea to all white women, including herself, to exercise compassion and empathy in Trump?s America.
?I personally will make my own pledge as a college-educated white woman to not look away,? she said, ?to not pretend that things are happening now won?t eventually affect me if we don?t put a stop to it.?
[From HuffPo]
I don?t want to write some huge diatribe against Tina Fey and how she represents Peak White Feminism, mostly because I don?t believe that. I think Tina has said some bad sh-t and I think she has a history of practicing respectability politics on women in general, i.e., if you?re not a sexually repressed, college-educated, heterosexual and married white woman, then you?re not as important as the women who do ?play by the rules.? But I also think that she?s trying to be a more productive ally – as evidenced by this ACLU benefit and discussion – and that she has the power to speak to a lot of those white women who did vote for Trump.
Of course, if you were being ungenerous towards Fey and those white women who voted for Trump, you could argue that they were fine with voting for Bigly and/or staying silent on important issues as long as it didn?t affect them personally. Now that the sh-t is hitting the proverbial fan and the political realities are affecting them, then suddenly we?re all in this together and we need to stop watching HGTV and pay attention because somewhere in this country a white lady is being oppressed!
