Melissa Joan Hart is more than just a one note actress, shes one of those superior Christians who teach their kids that non Christians arent to be trusted. She said, in a recent podcast interview, that she had to move her son from a Christian preschool to a regular preschool and that she had to have a talk with him about whether nonbelievers were good people. I hate when people say crap like this.
Years ago, when her son was transitioning from a Christian preschool to a traditional school, Hart was nervous. At his old school, she knew everyone. She told her then 6-year-old son:
We don?t know if these people are good people. We don?t know if they believe in Jesusand he really took the Jesus part to heart.
On the bus, her son made friends with a neighbor who was Jewish.
Later, her son wanted to know, If you?re Jewish, how do you get to heaven?
Hart got a call from the friends mother after the boys started discussing religion. Hart said she and the mom had chats about these questions of faith that were congenial until their boys reached sixth grade.
The conversations got a little more heated. And some problems came out of that, she said, but did not elaborate.
Hart said, overall, the two boys had good conversations. As a parent, however, she stepped in and said sometimes its best not to push certain things.
Hart stressed the importance of respecting each others beliefs and listening to each other, she said.
Hard told Faris, the podcast host, that upon reflection it was a difficult time.
I was like, Do I regret telling my son that we don?t know if people believe in Jesus so we don?t know their character? Was that a wrong thing to say? Did I just set my son on a wrong path or was that a right thing to say and I should defend that?

Since when was believing in Jesus a prerequisite for being a good person? Shes practically calling everyone else heathens. Kids dont even consider religion unless their parents drill it into them, they just want to hang out and play. This is totally antisemitic. I want to know what problems came out of this. My guess is that her kid told the other kid they were going to hell.
Instead of apologizing, Hart wrote a comment claiming that we didnt really understand, that she never said Christians were superior, and that she was just having a conversation with her son. This explanation really clarifies her previous remarks in that shes not apologizing or taking the antisemitic complaints seriously.
This is not an apology this is doubling down. When people say I dont judge, they f-ing judge. I hope she loses her next role as a goofball in a sh-tty Hallmark holiday movie for this. She can keep working on faith-based films or maybe she can get a job on CBN or Fox.

| | Kate Beckinsale & Pete Davidson got flirty at a Globes after-party, they 'left together' | | Added 5 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Pete Davidson turned up for some of the Golden Globes parties on Sunday. He went to the InStyle party and posed with Machine Gun Kelly, although I don?t know if they actually went together to the event as bros. After that, it seems like Pete went to the Netflix party, which is where he ran into Kate Beckinsale. And? like, sparks flew? The weirdest sh-t goes down at some of these parties, I swear to God.
Pete Davidson and Kate Beckinsale were spotted leaving the Netflix Golden Globes party together.
?They were flirting and sipping Mot champagne,? a spy told ?Page Six TV.? ?They were outside on the patio and left together.?
?Saturday Night Live? star Davidson, 25, and fiance Ariana Grande ended their engagement in October after four months. TMZ reported in December that he was spotted on a date at Carbone with a ?mystery woman.? Beckinsale, 45, divorced Hollywood producer Len Wiseman in 2016, and has most recently been linked to British comedian Jack Whitehall. She shares 19-year-old daughter Lily with ex Michael Sheen. Reps didn?t immediately get back to us.

I have no idea about Pete?s ?type,? but I do know that Kate Beckinsale has been going through a serious younger-man phase for a few years. Remember when she started dating that 21-year-old douche-bro? It felt like she picked him at the mall or something. I mean, Kate is gorgeous and she has an incredible body, and if she wants to bang 20-somethings, so be it and that?s her business. But she has TERRIBLE taste in 20-somethings. Rando college bros and Pete Davidson? Nah. If I was a 45-year-old cougar with a bangin? body, I?d be trying to lure Timothee Chalamet into my web of seduction.

To be clear, I don?t actually believe that Gwyneth Paltrow should be canceled. Any cancellation if it should happen won?t come from me. That?s partly because I halfway enjoy how obliviously awful she is, and it?s fun to cover her sometimes. It?s not a ?cancel Gwyneth y/n? issue. It?s more like: please recognize that she?s terrible. Please recognize that she?s getting rich off of bad science, elitism and expensive feelings. Please recognize that whatever Gwyneth is, she?s not fking harmless. Gwyneth has a newish interview in the Financial Times, and she is just as dangerous clueless and obliviously elitist as ever. Some highlights:
How she started Goop: ?It?s bizarre to think back on. I had such a different life then,? says Paltrow of the ?life crisis? that precipitated Goop. ?I was completely burned out. I had done 40 films in a decade, and even though there were aspects of it that were incredible, it was also pretty lonely. I was on the road alone a lot. And I had had my daughter and I thought, I don?t want to do that any more. And then I started to realise I was very interested in the digital space. I certainly had no idea what I was getting myself into. I was trying to figure out WordPress alone in my kitchen. It was ridiculous.?
She?s still telling that asinine story about bitching out a yoga-studio employee: ?I started writing about this kind of stuff when it was ahead of the curve, and we are still ahead of the curve. Even when I started to do yoga, pre-internet, I remember there being very cynical articles about how yoga was culty and weird and for freaks. It?s been great watching the sea-change. I had this funny experience the other day where I went to a yoga studio in LA and the beautiful 22-year-old girl behind the counter was like, ?Have you ever done yoga before?? And I was like: ?Bitch, you have this job because I?ve done yoga before.???
On her detractors who say ?wellness? is only for privileged, rich white women: ?But this is bullsh-t. This idea that wellness is aspirational, and for rich people, it?s absolutely not true at all. At the crux of it, the true tenets of wellness ? meditation, eating whole foods, drinking a lot of water, sleeping well, thinking good thoughts, trying to be optimistic ? are all free.?
Why people are really mad at her: ?I think the reason why people get pissed off with me is because I?m like, ?No, I actually work my ass off in all areas of my life.? Some people are really inspired by that and some people are annoyed by it.?
Going into to meet with investors for Goop: ?Oh, it?s hilarious. And so brutal. Firstly, every investor will take the meeting. And then, for about the first 90 seconds, I am Gwyneth Paltrow and maybe they want a selfie for their wife and maybe they tell me about how much they loved The Royal Tenenbaums. And then you sit down to do the presentation it?s like: ?Oh sh-t, this is what it?s like to be an entrepreneur.? It?s such a great lesson, because when you?re a famous person?.?.?.?people are always treating you with kid gloves and removing obstacles for you. Investor meetings were a huge wake-up call, in the best way. It was when I realised I?d been treated like a fake person for 20 years.?
On all of the lawsuits & fake science: ?As you grow, you realise you have a lot of responsibility and accountability. We?re getting very buttoned-up about all that stuff now. I think the scariest thing for me is not knowing what I don?t know. I have made huge mistakes because I didn?t know those particular mistakes were even conceivably possible to make.?
[From Financial Times]
First of all, do you enjoy how she glosses over the lawsuits and consumer-advocacy watchdog reports about all of her expensive fake science? It?s only NOW that Goop is starting to get ?buttoned up? about, you know, making sure that they don?t say or suggest that stickers can cure cancer. It?s ?scary? for Gwyneth because of ?not knowing what I don?t know.? *twirls blonde hair* You mean I can?t charge $599 for jade eggs and claim that they cure Crohn?s?? I DIDN?T KNOW THAT. See if that stands up in court.
But really, this is the most offensive part: ?This idea that wellness is aspirational, and for rich people, it?s absolutely not true at all. At the crux of it, the true tenets of wellness ? meditation, eating whole foods, drinking a lot of water, sleeping well, thinking good thoughts, trying to be optimistic ? are all free.? WHOLE FOODS ARE NOT FREE. Flint still doesn?t have clean water. Being able to ?sleep well? if you?re a working parent is not free. Having the time and access to focus on meditation and mental health is not free. Does she honestly think food and water are free and accessible to all people? This is the same woman who tried to ?live on food stamps? for a month, only to blow all her SNAP money on limes and then quit after a few days and go to lunch at a fancy restaurant.
Last thing: someone needs to tell her to stop telling that story about how she invented yoga and bitched out a young woman. That story isnt the charming little tale she thinks it is.
