Cate Blanchett went through the entire awards-season rigamarole in 2022 and 2023 with Tr. I was really rooting for her at the 2023 Oscars, but she lost to Michelle Yeoh. I was happy with Yeoh?s win, although I think people will look back on Tr and wonder how the hell Cate lost to anyone that season. In any case, Cate has eight Oscar nominations and two wins. She has eight BAFTA noms and four wins. Twelve Golden Globe noms and four wins. You get the idea Cate has been to a lot of awards shows for many, many years, starting in the 1990s. She knows how to work an awards season, she knows how to walk a red carpet, and she knows that she?s really fking tired of all of it, especially the televised awards shows. So she has an idea: stop televising the shows??? It will never happen, but hear her out:
Cate Blanchett would prefer awards shows not to be aired on television. The two-time Oscar-winning actress made a recent appearance on the Las Culturistas With Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang podcast, where she suggested that the Oscars should ?go back to the day when it wasn?t televised.?
The conversation started when Blanchett noted that there are ?so few spaces that you can go now, where you are private,? without phones and the risk of someone recording you. ?That?s what I loved about the late ?80s [was] going to all of the dance parties in Sydney for Mardi Gras. People were just there. They were so present, you know, they were just together, collectively, having a great time. It was non-aggressive. No one was being recorded. No one cared what anyone did.?
Hosts Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang proceeded to note how privacy is even more difficult in the era of TikTok, especially with the viral trend of lip readers analyzing celebrity moments during televised awards shows and other events.
?But now it feels like that chasm between that kind of event, that ideal, is widening from the thing that?s very common now at, like, an awards show where you?ve got lip readers, you?re being photographed,? Yang said before a confused Blanchett interjected, ?Lip readers??
The co-hosts explained the trend, which sees TikTokers trying to guess what celebrities are saying to each other at awards shows. ?And it looks like it could be exactly what they?re saying, in a way that?s a little bit odd,? Rogers said. Yang added that the lip-reading trend makes Hollywood events feel more ?treacherous,? to which the Black Bag actress agreed.
?I mean, I say, I know it?s blasphemy, go back to the day when it wasn?t televised,? Blanchett suggested. ?Bring that back and just have a great party where people can just let go. I mean the industry is so scattered and at such a point?which I think potentially could be exciting or could really be depressing, but it?s at a pivot point, and so we need to gather together and celebrate what it is that we do, without it having to have any public-facing.?
She continued, ?I mean, the fashion is great, and all of that stuff. We?ll find out in the end who won or who didn?t win. But it would be so nice that that happened behind closed doors. [It would be] absolutely a very different evening.?
[From The Hollywood Reporter]
I?ve been watching awards shows for so long, I remember a time when actors were regularly drunk off their asses at the Golden Globes, to the point where they would give hilarious, off-the-cuff sh-thoused acceptance speeches. I remember Jack Nicholson winning a Globe, stumbling up to the microphone and telling a long-winded story about how alcohol-infused the Globes USED TO BE. While I don?t think Cate?s suggestion will be considered seriously, I would like to see a conversation about the need to shake up the awards-show format in general. There are too many ?shows? and Cate?s right, a couple of them could stand to be untelevised and ALL of them could be shorter.

| | Gwen Stefani 'doesn't care' if she alienates fans by going 'full MAGA' | | Added 1 hours ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Questions about Gwen Stefani?s politics have been percolating for a while, but in the past month, a lot of Gwen?s fans have now become convinced that she?s fully MAGA. Gwen has, in my opinion, always been more socially conservative and religious than her fans realize, and she also has a long history of problematic words and behavior around race. And yet? she used to be a huge Democrat and a huge Democratic donor and fundraiser. But things have changed these days, she?s reposting hyper-religious-wingnut content, she?s boosting Tucker Carlson interviews and she?s following right-wing nutjobs on social media. Well, now the Mail is running an exclusive about how Gwen has basically adopted Blake Shelton?s Republican politics and the music industry doesn?t know what to do with her anymore because her new music sucks and she?s turned off all of her loyal fans.
Gwen Stefani has become unrecognizable to her fans, friends and even her label which is now said to be considering dropping her after her alleged MAGA makeover. The No Doubt singer, 55, outraged her liberal fans last week when she publicly supported conservative political commentator Tucker Carlson, reposting one of his religious interviews. The move shocked her fans given her previous support for the Democratic party.
Now an insider has told the Daily Mail that Gwen appears to have gone MAGA and doesnt care if it alienates her fans. They alleged that the change in her political views could be attributed to her husband, country singer Blake Shelton, who previously praised Donald Trump.
After massively supporting Democrats for years ? she appears to have gone MAGA, the source explained. Some of this can be attributed to her marriage, as Blake is an infamous Republican. She shut out everyone for him. She doesn?t seem to care about her fans anymore and has shed her persona to become the unrecognizable opposite of what she once was. The Tucker Carson situation is not anything new, though. This is who she has become, the source continued. Gwen is not even trying to hide who she has become and this person is unrecognizable to her fans, friends and even her label.
She cannot sell albums anymore and with her new holier-than-thou campaign, it has really turned a lot of people off, said our source. After [teaming up with the Catholic] app, she released her last album Bouquet which was an absolute bomb. This has caused Interscope to consider dropping her which is a travesty considering she was once one of their top selling artists. But she has only herself to blame.
Gwens last album debuted at number 95 on the Billboard Hot 200 chart and sold only 13,000 copies in its first week. The Daily Mail has reached out to Gwen and Interscope for comment.
[From The Daily Mail]
For what it?s worth, I listened to a little bit of Gwen?s last album and it was a trainwreck, it?s like she?s completely lost her innate understanding of the pop-music zeitgeist. I guess her old producers don?t want to work with her anymore either. I think that was why the album bombed, not ?fans were turned off by her politics? the music was just bad. In the musical sense, Gwen had a good run she was incredibly relevant for over two decades. She even had some hit songs with Blake in recent years. But yeah, this is her semi-retirement vibe: bad music, MAGA politics, being Blake?s perfect Republican wife, I guess.

Someone remarked that the media outrage towards With Love, Meghan was partially because the show proves that the Duchess of Sussex still has so many friends and those friends are really loyal to her. There are no leaks or bad vibes among Meghan?s closest friends and they?re not selling her out for tabloid pennies. Instead, they?re happy to show up for her cooking show, alongside some new friends she?s made in Montecito and new friends she?s making because of WLM. You get the idea Meghan has a wide group of friends that she can count on. Well, I have no idea what inspired this, but the Mail is trying to make it into a thing: why isn?t Markus Anderson on WLM? Markus and Meghan became besties when she lived in Canada Markus is some kind of executive with the Soho House. What?s weird is that they?ve hung out publicly in recent years and the Mail knows that Markus and Meghan just attended a mutual friend?s baby shower a few months ago. Markus went to a hockey game with the Sussexes last year, I think? Markus was also in Montecito during ?coronation weekend? in 2023 they went hiking near Casa de Sussex and there was a big freakout. Well, here?s another freakout:
Whatever happened to Meghans best friend Markus Anderson? The tall, handsome Canadian was a third wheel in the early days of her romance with Prince Harry ? and he was front and center at their 2018 wedding. However, he was nowhere to be seen in the first series of her recent Netflix lifestyle show With Love, Meghan ? and I understand that he wont appear in the second series either.
Though that next instalment isnt due to air until the autumn, it was filmed at the same time as the first, in a rented $8 million home near to the Montecito mansion Meghan shares with her husband Prince Harry and their children Archie and Lilibet.
A friend of Anderson conceded that their bond may not be quite as tight as it once was. This is apparently is due to Andersons extremely busy professional life ? hes an executive at Soho House and travels almost constantly. The private members club now has 42 outposts around the globe. The last time he and Meghan were spotted together was at a baby shower for a mutual friend in December. And before that, he hadnt been pictured with her in years.
On top of Andersons busy schedule, his friend admitted there was another reason he has steered clear from Meghans new show, saying: He just really is not comfortable in the spotlight its not his thing.
Other prominent personalities who Meghan counts among her friends, but who havent appeared in her show, include Ellen DeGeneres and Oprah Winfrey ? though, its hardly like either of them are afraid of the spotlight. Another missing face has been feminist-trailblazer Gloria Steinem, with whom the Duchess of Sussex is close. Steinems absence is less surprising, for she has built a career around fighting for equality and getting women out of the kitchen ? not sprinkling edible flowers on biscuits. Perhaps a changing of the guard is afoot in Meghans inner circle.
[From The Daily Mail]
I?m struggling to even figure out the point of this: ?yes, Meghan clearly has a lot of close friends, but why isn?t every single one of Meghan?s friends on her show??? Because? that?s weird and unreasonable to expect every friend-of-Meghan to rearrange their schedules to turn up on her show in the first two seasons? ?Why isn?t Gloria Steinem on the show?!?? Because she?s Gloria Steinem?? Is this all because they?re mad that they can?t say that Meghan is friendless and unsupported? Abigail Spencer, Mindy Kaling, Tracy Robbins (wife of Paramount?s CEO), Delfina Figueras, Kelly Zafjen, Victoria Jackson all showed up. And that?s why they?re mad.

David Beckham covers the latest issue of Men?s Health UK. While he has many businesses and sponsorships, it looks like this interview was mainly done for two reasons: he?s shilling his new nutrition/supplement line, IM8, and he?s also chatting about turning 50 years old in May. It?s a big deal Ol? Goldenballs is turning the big 5-0. He seems fine with it, probably because he?s in good shape and his body doesn?t hurt that much after decades of professional football. He?s got a strong marriage, healthy kids, and he?s the designated chore-monkey for the Windsors. Everything?s coming up roses! Some highlights from David?s interview:
He treats everyone respectfully: ?I definitely learned a lot about leadership from Sir Alex Ferguson. I think I?ve taken that into my business. I?m sometimes first in the office and the last out. The staff see how I work. In business, I think it?s always been about how you treat people. That?s why I?ve got a great team. I don?t like an atmosphere in an office, I don?t like an atmosphere in a team. I don?t like aggression. You always treat people with respect ? doesn?t matter who it is it, from the guy on the door to the lawyers or the accountant.?
His body feels good: ?Do you know what, my body?s actually feeling better than it has done for a long time. People ask where I feel it the most ? is it my knees or my ankles? My achilles was a bad injury towards the end of my playing career but it never troubles me now, despite rupturing it. It?s actually my back and left hip that give me the most grief. I?ve had it X-rayed, MRI?d ? it?s just wear and tear.?
Turning 50 this year: ?Doesn?t bother me one bit. People are asking me about it gently, like it should be a big issue. It?s not something that I?m worried about, as long as I?m fit and healthy and my family are healthy, that?s all I care about. I?m really happy. I?ve got the business and an amazing family. My kids are working hard and they?ve all got passions ? that?s what?s important to me.?
The back-end of his career did a lot of damage to his body: ?Unfortunately, I did have a lot of injections and I don?t think it?s a good thing. I think that?s probably why certain parts of my body were a real mess. My last game at Real Madrid at the Bernabeu, I had three cortisone injections in my ankle and my achilles purely to play I?ve had cortisone injections in my back, too. I actually broke my back. I was living in LA and cracked my spine. I had pain after a game, I went for a scan and they couldn?t find anything wrong with it. I was insisting there was something not right there ? I could feel it. So they injected me with dye and then it came up. It was a bad one. I broke my wrist in South Africa and I still get issues with it. I was told that it was a dissolvable screw. Turns out it wasn?t, so I?ve still got it.?
Why he created his premium nutrition brand, IM8: ?It?s the reason that I wanted to create IM8. I was fed up with going into the pharmacy or a health shop and there were so many supplements, so many tablets, so many powders. One person saying one thing is the best and others would disagree. IM8 works for me. Gut health, energy, focus ? all of it is improved.?
Life in the Cotswolds: ?Cooking is a real passion for me now. It?s something I?m so proud of.? On social media, he?s given fans tours of his home in the Cotswolds, complete with a chicken coop, a vegetable patch and beehives. ?When we harvest the honey and I?m sat there in my kitchen looking at it all, I get quite emotional. I turn to my kids looking for respect and they?re like, ?Yeah, whatever, Dad.? It?s so satisfying for me, though.?
He?ll have an empty nest in five years: ?We?re not quite there yet, but it?s actually painful. We?ve gone from having four in the house to one.? The self-confessed ?neat freak? even admits he?s already missing the boys? cluttered bedrooms. ?What I would give to have that back and be able to walk in, moaning to them about it! That said, my boys are pretty good. They?ll always ask me to the pub when they go with their mates.?
[From Men?s Health]
Did you clock the fact that he was like ?my body feels good, I?m in great shape? and then he?s like ?oh yeah I broke my back and it still bothers me, as does my wrist and everything else.? Still, I bet that David thought his body would be much more banged up after his career and it?s shocking that his knees and ankles aren?t being held together with duct tape. Anyway, spare a thought for Harper, the baby of the family and the last one in the ?nest.? She?s their only girl too David is going to be completely devastated when she moves out. None of the Beckham boys are going to college, right? I wonder if Harper will end up going to university. If she does, I?m sure her dad will visit as much as possible and bring hand-cooked meals.

| | Deadline: Coyote vs. Acme, twice shelved by Warner Bros, is close to being sold | | Added 3 hours ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Well, well, well. It looks like we may be on track to make a left turn at Albuquerque, after all. Back in November 2023, Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav took a giant wrecking ball to Coyote vs. Acme, an animation-live action hybrid film that depicted the most inevitable of all lawsuits: the beleaguered Wile E. Coyote against the ubiquitous-yet-never-effective Acme Corporation. WBD spent an estimated $70 million making the movie, which was finished and testing well with audiences, until Zaslav decided he?d rather just get the tax write-off instead. People were pissed! To the point where Zaslav made a public show of saying he?d consider buyout offers from other studios? only for it to be later revealed in early 2024 that he was shelving the film again, and oh yeah, he?s never actually watched it. And now another sharp turn: a distributor called Ketchup Entertainment is apparently in negotiations to buy Coyote vs. Acme from WBD for about $50 million. What do I think of this plan? To quote the hungry coyote himself: ?Genius.?
Warner Bros? shelved movie Coyote vs. Acme finally might have found a new home with the studio deep in sale negotiations, we can reveal.
Gareth West?s distributor-financier Ketchup Entertainment is negotiating an all-rights acquisition in the $50 million range for the animated/live-action hybrid project. Ketchup last year rescued the same studio?s The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie.
The pact isn?t finalized and there?s still a chance it doesn?t make, but it?s heading in the right direction. Should it get over the live, the film would get a theatrical release in 2026.
The deal would mark a significant and record outlay for Ketchup, whose previous releases have included Michael Keaton starrer Goodrich, comic book reboot Hellboy: The Crooked Man, Ben Affleck thriller Hypnotic, and Michael Franco?s Jessica Chastain drama Memory.
Directed by David Green and written by May December scribe Samy Burch, as well as DC Studios co-boss James Gunn and Jeremy Slater, Coyote vs. Acme is based on the Looney Tunes characters and the New Yorker humor article ?Coyote v. Acme? by Ian Frazier.
Will Forte, John Cena and Lana Condor star in the movie, which follows Wile E. Coyote, who, after Acme products fail him one too many times in his dogged pursuit of the Roadrunner, decides to hire a billboard lawyer to sue the Acme Corporation. The case pits Wile E. and his lawyer (Forte) against the latter?s intimidating former boss (Cena), but a growing friendship between man and cartoon stokes their determination to win.
Despite test-screening well, the project became a high-profile casualty of the WB cost-cutting two years ago and it has been sitting on the shelf for more than a year. The studio reportedly screened the movie to a string of buyers in early 2024 with a price tag of around $70M, which is how much the film is said to have cost. Studio sources claim to us that they didn?t get any offers at the time.
[From Deadline]
Not gonna lie, getting this news mere days after I was bemoaning WBD removing ALL of the classic Looney Tunes episodes from streaming on Max, is well, whiplash, but also feels like a glimmer of hope. Nothing can ever replace the originals, and there is no justice until their streaming status is restored! But still, the fact that we may get Coyote vs. Acme at last does feel like a victory. And if Ketchup really does make the deal and release the film (which seems likely, especially since they?ve already rescued one Looney Tunes project from WBD), you know what we have to do, right folks? We have to turn out in droves to give it a good box office! Nothing would land like a bigger anvil on David Zaslav?s head than seeing this film actually make bank. And after all this time and hype, I am genuinely excited to see what they did with this story. Samy Burch being one of the screenwriters is intriguing. I enjoyed May December a lot. That being said, I would not think the same writer would pen that script and a Looney Tunes movie!

| | Kanye West invited Andrew Tate over when North West was visiting her dad | | Added 3 hours ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

As we discussed, Kanye West has been crashing out in spectacular fashion in recent weeks, and it?s picked up significantly over the past week. He?s got a new album ?? and some people think this is all some kind of fked up promotional work. I don?t. I think he?s in the middle of another manic episode AND he?s desperate for attention in general. In the past week, Kanye has: released a song featuring Sean Combs and North West (Kanye?s oldest child); used ableist slurs about Jay-Z and Beyonce?s children; worn swastika gear; accused the Kardashians of human trafficking; and said some truly crazy sh-t about other rappers and music industry people. Don?t forget this either: apparently, Kanye is also hanging out with Andrew and Tristan Tate, two rapists and human traffickers who were just allowed back into America by the Trump administration. Kim Kardashian has already shut down Kanye?s visitation with North because the Tate brothers were around Kanye.
Kanye Wests wild claim Kim Kardashian is pimping out their kids strikes people close to her as laughable especially considering hes been hanging with the controversial Tate brothers TMZ has learned.
Kim and Yes co-parenting relationship hit a new low Wednesday as he fired off a string of outrageous posts on X the most offensive to Kim being the one where he accuses her of sex trafficking, due to Norths involvement in an FKA Twigs song, and an accompanying TikTok.
However, sources familiar with the situation tell us the issue of trafficking already came up last week during an emergency hearing over North. Were told Kim abruptly pulled the plug while North was visiting her dad, because security guards informed her Andrew and Tristan Tate were going to be arriving at the location.
As we reported, Kim, Ye and their lawyers met with a mediator last Friday to discuss North rapping on Yes song LONELY ROADS STILL GO TO SUNSHINE which also features Diddy but were told the Tate Bros. incident also came up.
Andrew and Tristan were arrested in 2022 for allegedly creating a criminal organization in Romania, and Andrews been charged with rape in that country. Theyre also both facing sexual assault lawsuits in the U.S. and the UK. They have not been convicted of any crimes. Not shockingly, though, were told Kim does not want North or any of their children associating with the Tates or Diddy who, of course, is facing sex trafficking allegations in a federal indictment.
Another issue raised in the mediation was Yes penchant for wearing swastika t-shirts.
[From TMZ]
It?s like Nazi Mid Libs in here, good god. I didn?t even know that Kanye had any dealings with the Tate brothers, but it?s actually not that surprising. Kanye is pretty tapped into that whole network of right-wing lunatics, white supremacist podcasters, ?manosphere? misogynists, etc. Of course Kim Kardashian shut it down and I?m glad the security guards alerted her to what was going down. My only question is: what?s taking so long for Kim to get full custody of the kids? This feels like an emergency situation, especially with the entrance of the Tate brothers.

| | David Foster is so afraid of elevators that he?ll walk up 65 flights of stairs | | Added 3 hours ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

When last we checked in with David Foster, the Grammy-winning producer was caught on camera calling his 34-years-younger wife Katharine McPhee ?fat? when she first appeared as a contestant on American Idol (where he was a behind-the-scenes mentor). I wonder what he?d call Betty Boop?s figure, the voluptuous Fleischer Studios cartoon character from the 1930s. Foster has written the music for a new Broadway show based on the foxy vixen, Boop! The Musical, that?s playing now. So Foster is doing some press for Boop!, including a new interview with the Wall Street Journal. When WSJ asked about Foster?s exercise habits, Foster revealed that a good chunk of his fitness comes down to his taking the stairs everywhere ? he?s afraid of elevators! To the point where he?ll walk up 65 flights to a hotel pool. For the sake of the other swimmers, I hope Foster was able to shower post-climb and pre-dip. He shared even more about his elevator phobia:
David Foster is so afraid of elevators that he can only remember being in five of them as an adult.
The 75-year-old music producer, who is a 16-time Grammy winner, opened up about his fear of elevators after being asked about his workout routine.
?I try to go to the gym three times a week. Also, I literally never take an elevator. It?s claustrophobia. I?ve been in an elevator five times in my adult life. Three of those were for surgeries in the hospital. I was drugged so it was OK,? David told the Wall Street Journal.
David revealed one incredible story about why he went in an elevator.
He said, ?The other two times were extraordinary circumstances. One was with Pavarotti and his 20th floor place in New York. I was working with him and Celine [Dion] on a duet and then the wine?s flowing, everybody?s drinking and I said, ?I?m leaving now,? and I started to go for the stairs. And he goes, ?No. Today you don?t, today you take the elevator.??
?He gets in this little elevator with a little seat in it. He sits down, he grabs me, he pulls me onto his lap, and he sings ?Ave Maria? in my f?ing ears so loud. I mean, Pavarotti?s singing to me all the way down. Anyway, to answer the question about exercise, I?ve taken millions of stairs in my life,? David said.
David also talked about walking up 65 flights of stairs so he could use the swimming pool at Singapore?s Marina Bay Sands.
?There?s this place in Singapore called the Marina Bay Sands. We were staying there while shooting Asia?s Got Talent [in 2015]. From time to time I wanted to go to the pool, so I would walk up the 65 flights to get to the pool,? he said.
[From Just Jared]
I may not be a big fan of the man, but that is a great story Foster tells about being serenaded by Pavarotti as a distraction/sedative for a 20-flight elevator ride. He should write a song about it! At age 75, I?m assuming Foster has already tried all the therapy he wishes to in terms of tackling this particular phobia, and they either didn?t work or he?s decided, ?Hey, it?s good for my heart.? 65 flights, though, is just crazy. My only frame of reference is when I was living on the 15th floor of a building in Manhattan during Hurricane Sandy in 2012. (Technically it was the 14th floor, because it was a superstitious building that had no floor 13. Seriously.) So Sandy cut our power and I had to haul my ass up those stairs, guided by the super with a flashlight, whereupon I packed a bag of essentials and immediately hot-footed it to my aunt uptown who still had electricity. Those 14 flights were plenty for me, thankyouverymuch, and that was when I was in better shape. And, not for nothing, isn?t Foster rich enough that he could?ve helicoptered his way up the building? I mean, what are those song royalties for anyway?!

Megan Stalter is an actress and comedian she?s on Hacks and she?s part of LA?s alt-comedy scene, I think. Stalter is also plus-sized, especially for Hollywood?s achingly-thin standards. I?m positive that Stalter, like so many plus-sized women in Hollywood, has probably felt the pressure to go on Ozempic or Wegovy for weight-loss. But she has not given in to the pressure, probably because she?s been paying attention to one of the side effects of those drugs.
Megan Stalter says there is one reason why she has no intention of trying Ozempic, the type 2 diabetes drug that many have also used for weight loss.
While appearing on the March 13 episode of Grindr Presents: Who?s The A? with Katya podcast, the Hacks star, 34, spoke about a host of topics with RuPauls Drag Race alum Katya Zamolodchikova, including sexuality and sex toys, as well as the side effects of the popular injectable.
In a round of the podcasts titular game, Katya, 42, asked Stalter what she thinks about people who lie about using Ozempic, which prompted the star to respond that she thinks people are fooling themselves if they think they can hide their use of the drug.
Lets just say the trips to the bathroom would say otherwise, okay? We know if youre on it because youre s- your pants, she said. How is that hotter than being fat? That is insane to me. That is crazy.
I would rather be 500 lbs. than s- all day. Thats so gross, the comedian added.
[From People]
This reminds me of that blind item about someone having ?Ozempic-induced diarrhea? at Gwyneth Paltrow?s Hamptons home. While Ozempic and the other diabetes/weight loss drugs have HUGE benefits (they even help calm an addict?s cravings, if not eliminate it completely), ?diarrhea? seems to be a pretty consistent side effect too, and Angelenos like Stalter have probably seen a lot of newly-thin people running to the bathroom constantly. For some people, that trade-off isn?t worth it.

| | Tracy Anderson made a very stupid swipe at the Duchess of Sussex | | Added 3 hours ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

It?s been a minute since we?ve talked about Tracy Anderson. I can?t even believe she?s still around and people are still paying attention to her? Anderson is a longtime personal trainer and sort of disordered-eating advocate/goblin. Tracy?s whole deal is very dated, but then again, I have not paid attention to her in years so maybe she has changed up her gimmicks. Tracy is still aligned with Gwyneth Paltrow and they have various business dealings with each other, enough that Tracy films ?recipe videos? for Gwyneth?s Goop brand. This week, Tracy filmed one of those ?recipe videos? and she made a not-so-veiled crack about the Duchess of Sussex.
Celebrity fitness trainer Tracy Anderson has seemingly made a thinly veiled crack at Meghan Markle over her decision to film her newly released Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, in a rented Montecito, CA, home instead of at her own $14.65 million mansion.
Anderson, 50, made the apparent crack while filming a recipe video for her close friend Gwyneth Paltrows wellness brand, Goop, beginning her video by stating: Hi, Im Tracy Anderson. Welcome to my actual kitchen.
The introduction was deemed by many to have been a dig at Markle, 43, who filmed her own series of cooking videos in the kitchen of a property that was used by Netflix as the set of the former Suits stars lifestyle series, despite the fact that the show was billed as an at home experience with the Duchess of Sussex.
Markles series was largely taped inside an $8 million dwelling that appears to have been leased to serve as a filming location, with many of the episodes focusing on her endeavors in the kitchen, where she is often joined by a celebrity friend. There are many parallels to be drawn between Markles series and the clip posted by Anderson, in which the fitness expert puts together a green goddess crunch salad.
[From Realtor.com]
I was genuinely surprised that Realtor.com had some tea, and I wanted to use them as a source as opposed to the Daily Mail screaming about Tracy?s ?BRUTAL SWIPE!? Anyway, I?ve never understood why people have latched onto ?Meghan films at a rented home? as some kind of criticism/gotcha/example-of-inauthenticity. It?s always made perfect sense to me Meghan doesn?t want a film crew in her home, especially when her kids are small. It?s insanely stressful to film this kind of show inside your own home, and plenty of chefs do the same, the film somewhere else or create a set which looks like a personal kitchen. Besides, if you watch WLM closely, you can see that some scenes are filmed outdoors at Meghan?s home. In any case, Tracy has always been an ahole. You can go through our archives or subscribe to our mailing list for the top 8 stories, there?s more than a decade of assy lore about Tracy.

We recently passed the one-year anniversary of the Mother?s Day frankenphoto fiasco. To recap, the Princess of Wales went missing for months, then on Mother?s Day weekend in the UK which was Oscar weekend Kensington Palace released a ?new photo taken by Prince William? of Kate and their three children. Within minutes/hours of the photo?s release, people began analyzing the amateurish Photoshop, with many theorizing that the photo (released officially by KP, remember) was hacked together using several photos. By the time of the Oscar red carpet, Reuters, the AP, AFP and Getty had all issued ?kill orders? on the image. We later learned that a few of those agencies had even contacted KP and asked for the original image before issuing the kill order, but KP refused to play ball. Early Monday morning, ?Kate? took responsibility for the hacked-together image and ?she? apologized for causing confusion.
As many pointed out, this wasn?t just some minor controversy what was supposed to be a health update about the future queen consort turned out to have been a faked and manipulated image. As I wrote at the time, ?There are enormous ?political consequences,? and now, with this f?k up, Kensington Palace has zero credibility if and when some bigger sh-t hits the fan.? Instead of acknowledging that, KP and Buckingham Palace put a different plan into action, where it was all ?woe is me, people were so mean to Kate while she had cancer!? We were just supposed to forget that William and his advisors all tossed a cancer-stricken Kate under the bus and made her take the fall for the frankenphoto, remember? Anyway, I bring up this sordid history because this week?s People Magazine cover story includes some revisionist history:
Kate Middleton and Prince William were hurt by the fallout around the photo they released for Mothers Day last year after the Princess of Wales admitted to editing the picture.
There was a real sense then that they felt bruised by it, royal author Robert Hardman tells PEOPLE in this weeks exclusive cover story. It was treated like some great fraud.
After undergoing planned abdominal surgery on Jan. 16, 2024, Princess Kate, 43, largely retreated from public view, fueling online rumors. When she shared a Mother?s Day photo of herself with her children Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6, taken by William, on March 10, the image quickly became the center of controversy.
Online sleuths spotted irregularities, leading major picture agencies to pull it from circulation. The following day, Kate admitted to editing the picture, but by then, a firestorm of conspiracy theories had taken hold.
For Kate and her family, the experience was overwhelming.
It was like being on a roller coaster for them? undergoing chemotherapy and trying to protect your children. It was like being in the middle of a tornado and not knowing when it was going to calm down, says Ailsa Anderson, former press secretary to the late Queen Elizabeth.
Unbeknownst to the public at the time, Princess Kate had been undergoing treatment for cancer. She bravely shared her diagnosis on March 22, 2024, in an emotional video filmed at Windsor.
[From People]
?It was like being in the middle of a tornado and not knowing when it was going to calm down? again, this was not something done TO them they CHOSE to release a hacked-together photo and pass it off as an official portrait and a health update on a missing princess. William also chose to toss his wife under the bus regarding the photo. ?It was treated like some great fraud? it was a huge fraud? Jesus. As many said at the time, imagine the Sussexes released some hacked-together image as an official portrait. The reaction from these people would have been much different. And that comparison doesn?t even completely work again, William and Kate are the future king and queen, as they?re so fond of saying. They should be held to a different standard of truthfulness and authenticity.

Graydon Carter is currently promoting his new memoir, When the Going Was Good. It?s largely about his time as Vanity Fair?s editor-in-chief and what the media/magazine business was like in the glory days of the 1990s and pre-crash ?00s. I skimmed through his interview with the Times of London, where he spoke a lot about his dealings with Donald Trump over the years and he remarked, ?I don?t recognise this man. If it comes out in 15 years that this Trump was a Manchurian candidate, I wouldn?t be surprised. The Trump I knew was someone who just wanted to be liked.? He also bad-mouthed Anna Wintour and VF?s new EIC Radhika Jones. He said that Jones has made VF ?less fun, less interesting and don?t even get me started on the dull covers.? Which? fair enough. I also think Jones is too cerebral for a VF editor.
The reason I skimmed that Times interview was because I wanted to see if a British outlet got Carter to talk about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. They did not. The last time Carter was out and about and giving interviews, it was 2023 and he spent a good chunk of time criticizing the Sussexes and predicting that their marriage will last for ?years not decades.? His site, Air Mail, has also spent a lot of time hitting Meghan in particular. Well, Carter also chatted with Maureen Dowd at the NY Times, and they played a game called ?confirm or deny.? Dowd got him on the record about whether he thinks Harry and Meghan are, in Bill Simmons? words, ?fking grifters.?
Confirm or Deny: Annie Leibovitz took your passport photo.
Graydon Carter: She took my passport photo.
CoD: The two funniest non-comedians you?ve ever met are George Clooney and Anderson Cooper.
In both cases, they were so funny that I had to tell them to stop because I thought my trachea would break.
CoD: Anna Wintour should retire.
Absolutely not. I think she can go on for decades.
CoD: Putin once called you to get on the cover of Vanity Fair.
Deny.
CoD: The Kushners are the new Kennedys.
Deny. Well, the new Bobby Kennedy juniors, if that?s the arm of the family you?re referring to.
CoD: Taylor Swift has a lifetime ban from the Waverly Inn.
No, we adore Taylor Swift.
CoD: Harry and Meghan are grifters.
Bill Simmons could say that. I never would. I?m not sure grifter is the right word. More ?chancers,? which is an English expression for somebody who is on the make.
CoD: The Democrats need a celebrity candidate in 2028.
Confirm. Well, they need a candidate, and whether it?s a celebrity or not, they?ve got a strong bench. It?ll take six months, and they?ll get things sorted out, and then there?ll be a force.
[From The NY Times]
Americans don?t use ?chancer? as any kind of descriptor, so I actually looked it up. Per dictionary.com, chancer is ?an unscrupulous or dishonest opportunist who is prepared to try any dubious scheme for making money or furthering his or her own ends.? Like? Harry and Meghan got a Netflix contract? Meghan is investing in small, female-owned businesses? She?s doing a line of crepe mixes? Harry is working for a mental-health coaching business? What the fk is so unscrupulous about any of this? The Sussexes really have the old guard royalist media on their heels, huh? In some ways, this is what Graydon Carter is describing in his memoir he and the other tastemaker media types have seen their relevance dip to the point where they can?t control what people think of the Sussexes (or anyone), and it?s driving them crazy.
