I really do find myself subscribing to Mariah Carey?s holiday ideology more and more as I get older. Like, as soon as Halloween is over, I?m ready for the Christmas season. I?m fine with a two-month-long ?holiday season,? which includes Thanksgiving for Americans. I used to be like ?why are they pumping Christmas music into every store on November 1st?? But now it?s lovely to me. I love this time of year, minus my least-favorite holiday, Halloween. Anyway, Mariah gave an exclusive interview to People Magazine to promote her new ad campaign with The Children?s Place (a kids? clothing retailer), featuring her two 12-year-olds, Monroe and Moroccan. Dem Babies are on the verge of their teenage years! Some highlights:
Monroe & Moroccan turn 13 next April: Dont rush all of our lives. Theyre still 12. According to Carey, getting to watch Moroccan and Monroe grow into young adults is actually really beautiful. Theyre good, nice kids. Theyre kind-hearted people, and I really enjoy being around them and watching them grow up into the people that theyre ultimately going to become.
The kids are involved with sports: She doesnt want to be that overbearing person that talks about all the stuff that they do?[but] Theyre into activities like physical sports and stuff like that, which I was hoping they would be, because when they were little, I had them doing that. Then, when it was COVID, they really couldnt go anywhere and do anything. So now theyre both really enjoying activities and sports and all of that.
Her holiday plans: I keep that part as secret as possible until we get everything set. Its just one of those things I do every year, where I make everybody wait to play Christmas music until Im ready to take it in and feel like, Okay, now its time for the holidays.' Carey also says that she, Moroccan and Monroe do the holiday season a little bit differently than most people, but notes, We have a great time. We have our traditions, like rolling in the snow, jumping in the hot tubs ? stuff that most people dont do, but its just that were all kind of daredevils. We also sit and play games, like Heads Up! or Taboo. For the past four years, I?ve been trying to make my traditional Christmas meals, like my dad?s recipe for linguini and clam sauce. I like to make sure Monroe and Rocky come in and cook with me.
She hopes her kids love Christmas too: All of us spending time together is more than enough as a gift for what I want for Christmas, and what I want for my kids for Christmas is to just enjoy themselves, be happy, enjoy being with family, and feel loved.?
[From People]
She sounds almost subdued about Christmas! But you know she has something amazing planned. I hope that her kids are good and well-adjusted. I?ve talked a lot of sh-t about Mariah over the years, but I do think she?s a good mom who is trying to provide her kids with the lives and experiences she dreamt of for herself. It also sounds like Nick Cannon barely has anything to do with his firstborn children, mostly because he keeps having babies with other women. Anyway, can?t wait for November 1st, the official start of the holiday season!

| TMZ: Britney Spears reveals, in her memoir, that Justin Timberlake cheated on her | Added 200 days ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Surprising absolutely no one, Britney Spears has revealed that Justin Timberlake cheated on her when they were together circa 2001-2002. Twenty years later, we?re finally getting that vindication and that truth. For years, Justin ?slut-shamed? Britney and left enough breadcrumbs to lead fans to believe that he dumped Britney for cheating on him. When really, he got Britney pregnant, convinced her to get an abortion, cheated on her and then wrote ?Cry Me A River? about Britney cheating on HIM.
Britney Spears took most of the blame for years after she and Justin Timberlake split due to speculation she cheated but shes accusing him of doing the same with another celebrity one of many revelations in her new memoir.
Britneys Woman in Me doesnt drop until next week, but the cheating claim is just another chapter when it comes to her relationship with the *NSYNC star. Remember, we were first to report Britney also says she and Justin got pregnant when they were 19, and she claims he pushed for the abortion she eventually had.
In the book, were told Britney doesnt name the person with whom Justin allegedly stepped out, saying the woman now has a family Brit doesnt want to embarrass which means fans will, inevitably, start trying to connect dots on their own.
Of course, Justin dropped his massive hit Cry Me a River in 2002 admitting he wrote it after a nasty argument with Spears with many believing she had cheated on him.
Britney never denied the claims, and released her song Everytime the following year a song her writing partner says was a direct response to Cry Me a River. Britneys lyrics in the song include, I may have made it rain. Please, forgive me. My weakness caused you pain. And this songs my sorry.
However, since we broke the story of the abortion, some fans have speculated Everytime is actually about the pregnancy and abortion especially because the music video features a woman giving birth at the end.
[From TMZ]
Blind item: who was the famous woman, in what I assume was 2002? What if it was Christina Aguilera? Or Jessica Simpson? (It probably wasn?t Jessica.) Maybe it was an actress. Man, post-9/11 gossip was apocalyptic. I?ll admit that I missed much of this stuff at the time because I was actually paying attention to the war in Afghanistan and George W. Bush, etc. Anyway, it was well known that JT cheated on all of his girlfriends. That man just loves infidelity. What he did to Britney was disgusting.

| Britney Spears drank daiquiris with her mom when she was in eighth grade | Added 200 days ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Real talk: before this week, I wasn?t really looking forward to Britney Spears? memoir, The Woman in Me. I was worried that it would be either a massively sanitized version of her life, or it would be a big ball of chaos. People Magazine has published extensive excerpts (along with an interview with Britney) and I have to say, I was wrong. Britney?s writing is clear and simple, and she tells some truly ghastly stories in her punchy, nonchalant Britney ?voice.? Here are some of the excerpts which caught my eye:
Day drinking with her mother in eighth grade: ?For fun, starting when I was in eighth grade, my mom and I would make the two-hour drive from Kentwood to Biloxi, Mississippi, and while we were there, we would drink daiquiris. We called our cocktails ?toddies.? I loved that I was able to drink with my mom every now and then. The way we drank was nothing like how my father did it. When he drank, he grew more depressed and shut down. We became happier, more alive and adventurous.
She?s glad she wasn?t cast in ?The Notebook?: ?[Crossroads] was pretty much the beginning and end of my acting career, and I was relieved. The Notebook casting came down to me and Rachel McAdams, and even though it would have been fun to reconnect with Ryan Gosling after our time on the Mickey Mouse Club, I?m glad I didn?t do it. If I had, instead of working on my album In the Zone I?d have been acting like a 1940s heiress day and night.
The early days of her conservatorship: ?I?d been eyeballed so much growing up. I?d been looked up and down, had people telling me what they thought of my body, since I was a teenager. Shaving my head and acting out were my ways of pushing back. But under the conservatorship I was made to understand that those days were now over. I had to grow my hair out and get back into shape. I had to go to bed early and take whatever medication they told me to take. If I thought getting criticized about my body in the press was bad, it hurt even more from my own father. He repeatedly told me I looked fat and that I was going to have to do something about it. I would do little bits of creative stuff here and there, but my heart wasn?t in it anymore. As far as my passion for singing and dancing, it was almost a joke at that point.
What her father did to her: ?Feeling like you?re never good enough is a soul-crushing state of being for a child. He?d drummed that message into me as a girl, and even after I?d accomplished so much, he was continuing to do that to me. I became a robot. But not just a robot ? a sort of child-robot. I had been so infantilized that I was losing pieces of what made me feel like myself. The conservatorship stripped me of my womanhood, made me into a child. I became more of an entity than a person onstage. I had always felt music in my bones and my blood; they stole that from me.
She thinks she would have figured out her life without the conservatorship: ?If they?d let me live my life, I know I would?ve followed my heart and come out of this the right way and worked it out. Thirteen years went by with me feeling like a shadow of myself. I think back now on my father and his associates having control over my body and my money for that long and it makes me feel sick. Think of how many male artists gambled all their money away; how many had substance abuse or mental health issues. No one tried to take away their control over their bodies and money. I didn?t deserve what my family did to me.
[From People]
She?s right to point out that plenty of male artists ?gambled all their money away; how many had substance abuse or mental health issues. No one tried to take away their control over their bodies and money.? I think about that whenever I cover Kanye West, because if we?re using Britney as ?the standard? for who should be in a conservatorship, surely Kanye meets that criteria. But it?s not even mentioned or discussed, mostly because he?s a man. Jamie Spears is such a deeply horrible man too, the way he treated Britney and emotionally abused her and financially abused her. It?s despicable. And Lynn Spears taking her 13-year-old daughter to get daiquiris? Dear god.

The thing about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce is that they can be two things at once: a real relationship in its early days AND an incredibly convenient duel-marketing event at the highest level. There are layers to the cross-promotional aspect of Traylor, but I also believe that Travis and Taylor are genuinely happening and they?re into each other. Still, it?s amazing to watch Taylor?s PR go into overdrive this week, following a weekend full of Traylor photo-ops. Travis came to New York this past weekend, and they went to SNL, they partied with the SNL cast, and they went out to dinner on Sunday too. People?s ?sources? had all kinds of details about Traylor?s Saturday outing:
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were ?so happy? on their PDA-filled date night at the Saturday Night Live afterparty, a source tells PEOPLE. The pop superstar, 33, and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, enjoyed their time together at the afterparty at Catch Steak following the season 49 premiere of SNL on Saturday in New York City.
?Taylor and Travis were there all night and they were so smiley, they were so happy,? the source says. ?They were so talkative. They were really fun. They talked to every single person in the room that talked to them. They were super cool. Super nice, super happy,? the insider adds, noting that Swift and Kelce stayed at the party ?until after 4 a.m.?
The source also says the pair was definitely not shy with each other. At one point in the night, Kelce ?takes both her hands and puts them on his shoulder, so theyre face to face, and then he takes both his hands and grabs her waist. Theyre leaning in, theyre kissing each other,? the insider says. ?Theyre whispering. Theyre talking, going back and forth about what to order, like, ?Should we get a steak? Should we get espresso martinis?? And then they lean in and they?re kissing again. Theyre touching each other the whole time.?
Although Swift and Kelce ?mingled separately,? the pro athlete ?kept going over to her and checking in on her every little while, like, ?Are you good?? ? the source says. According to the source, Kelce was ?going over and touching her, putting his hand on her lower back or putting his hands on her waist and then they would do a little kiss and then they would go back to talking to whoever they were talking to. He kept checking in with her, but gave her space to talk to other people in the room, both male and female, and he talked to a ton of people in the room too, the insider adds.
?They were always connected throughout the night, the source notes of the pair. ?They were super comfortable with each other. They were very cuddly; they werent awkward. She was really comfortable with him, and he was a total gentleman.?
[From People]
Please, this came directly from Taylor and I LOVE IT. She?s telling us that she appreciates Travis?s whole deal, that she loves that he checks in with her while they?re at a party, that he was being demonstrative in public. This is Taylor?s love language someone she can be with publicly, someone she can talk about and get pap?d with. ?They were very cuddly; they werent awkward.? LOL. Meanwhile, People?s ?sources? also dished on how Travis thinks this is the real deal.
Dating the biggest superstar in the world may come with a unique set of challenges, but a source tells PEOPLE that Travis Kelce is ready for it as his romance with Taylor Swift continues.
Taylors unlike anyone Travis has dated before, the source shares as the 34-year-old NFL star hit the town with the Bejeweled singer, 33, in New York City over the weekend. It was very unexpected for his friends, but hes so into her and very, very happy. Some people thought he was just joking around about the bracelet and having a crush on her earlier this summer, but he was serious about it, referring to Kelces attempt to give Swift his phone number on a friendship bracelet when he attended her Eras tour at Arrowhead Stadium.
According to the insider, Swift and Kelce are having a great time getting to know one another and have introduced some of their friends to each other in recent weeks. The source adds, Everyones getting along and seeing how much fun they have together. They make a very cute couple.
[From People]
You know what I think? I think Taylor forgot what it?s like to date an American guy. She got so used to those British guys with all of their hangups and neuroses. To be fair, Travis seems like one of the better versions of an ?American guy.? He?s smart, he?s self-assured, he?s chatty and cool. God, I hope they can figure out a way to make it last.

| Julia Louis-Dreyfus on the Seinfeld reunion: I don't know what the hell Jerry's talking about | Added 201 days ago | Source: CeleBitchy |
|
|
|
|

Last week we talked about Jerry Seinfeld hinting at a Seinfeld reunion during a standup show. Jerry seemed to suggest that some kind of show is in the works that will somehow address the 1998 series finale, which fans and critics were disappointed with. Setting the divisive finale aside, I suggested that the only viable path for this project was making it about Elaine Benes, because Julia Louis-Dreyfus is the classiest, most talented one of the bunch. Oh, and she also hasn?t made an ass of herself like her former costars in the intervening years. Well, Julia was at the London Film Festival this week to promote an indie film Tuesday (that?s the name of the film, not the date of the premiere, and don?t worry it?s all kosher ? SAG-AFTRA gave the film a waiver) and of course she was asked about Jerry?s recent comments. She very succinctly responded: ?I don?t know what the hell he?s talking about.? Nor do any of us, Julia.
Speaking on his standup tour in the US on Saturday, Jerry Seinfeld told a Boston audience he ?has a little secret? about the show, whose 1998 finale was watched by 76 million viewers in the US when it first aired, but whose plot ? the four friends go on trial for wisecracking when a man is mugged in front of them ? proved divisive.
?Something is going to happen that has to do with that ending. It hasn?t happened yet,? Seinfeld said. ?Just what you are thinking about, [co-creator] Larry [David] and I have also been thinking about. So, you?ll see.?
His words triggered heated speculation all week about what form such a show might take. Stars Jason Alexander and Michael Richards are yet to offer comment, but speaking to the Guardian on Wednesday, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who played Elaine Benes on the programme, which ran between 1989 and 1998, professed ignorance about any such endeavour.
?Yeah, I just saw [that news] last night,? she said. ?And I don?t know what the hell he?s talking about.?
Of all the Seinfeld actors, Louis-Dreyfus is the one who appears to need such a return the least. As well as starring in subsequent hit TV shows such as Veep, the actor has won acclaim on the big screen, most notably for her roles in Nicole Holofcener?s cerebral and sensitive comedies Enough Said (2013) and You Hurt My Feelings (2023).
Her latest project further dramatically expands that range. Tuesday, a contemporary fairytale about grief, had its UK premiere at the Lonon film festival earlier this week, picking up considerable Oscar buzz for Louis-Dreyfus?s performance.
She plays a single mother in denial about the terminal illness of her teenage daughter, Tuesday played by Lola Petticrew. When the grim reaper arrives in the form of a massive, talking macaw, both women try to defer the inevitable by bargaining, battling ? and vaping with ? Death.
Critics praised Louis-Dreyfus as ?a revelation? ? particularly in sequences that see her unleashing a primordial energy unfamiliar to regular fans. ?She?s a performer whose radiant ferocity has never been in doubt,? wrote the Hollywood Reporter, ?but until now we haven?t [sic] seen all sides of the prism.?
[From The Guardian]
?Of all the Seinfeld actors, Louis-Dreyfus is the one who appears to need such a return the least.? This is such a quintessentially British, understated way of saying Julia has grown leaps and bounds past the rest of them. I stand by my earlier statement, if they don?t get Julia on board then it?s not worth watching. I?d rather see this new film next year, despite its grim premise, and experience the catharsis of Julia ?unleashing a primordial energy.? Billed as a fantasy-drama, Tuesday kind of sounds like Yorgos Lanthimos meets Ingmar Bergman based on early reviews. Is it likely to make me howl with laughter like Veep? No (my notorious history of laughing at horror films notwithstanding). Will I still tune in to see Julia play chess against a tall, talking, macaw-embodied Death? Definitely.

Before the snake fam even got the chance to process Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift?s surprise Saturday night outing, Traylor was out again on Sunday night. They hit up the Waverly Inn after Travis attended his brother?s game (the Eagles, Jason Kelce?s team, lost). Taylor?s outfit here isn?t my favorite thing ever, but it?s also got a ?90s vibe which I sort of appreciate.
There?s a lot of gossip reporting about Traylor?s two nights in New York. Reportedly, they were making out in the middle of the SNL afterparty for hours. They also looked ?in love? and like they weren?t even paying attention to anyone else (except Ice Spice).
Taylor and Travis looked very comfortable and happy together. They were kissing openly and weren?t shy with their PDA. When Taylor first arrived, she spent time with Ice Spice and Ice Spice?s friends, the source says.
Another source adds that the pair appeared to be the real deal, and that they didnt hold back when it came to being affectionate.
They were holding hands throughout the night, whispering into each others ear, and they even exchanged some kisses, says the source, who added it wasnt like they were making out, just sweet moments like hed kiss her on her head.
The source added that Kelce was also protective of Swift. At one point, he actually told her security guard that he could step aside, like hed take it from here, the source says.
[From ET]
I?ve already seen some videos where it looks like Travis is having a hard time negotiating Taylor?s security, especially when they?re getting in and out of cars. I think it?s great that he?s protective of her and he thinks he?s got it covered, but Taylor needs to sit down with him and tell him that he needs to let her security do their jobs and theres a reason why she has such a big security detail. Still, it?s also possible that Travis knows what makes a good photo, and he didn?t want Taylor?s security guys in the frame!
Meanwhile, The Eras Tour film shattered the box office this weekend, raking in $95-$97 million in North America. The Traylor outings also work as promotion!

Oh, here we go. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were out in New York last night they made surprise appearances on SNL (which Ill cover tomorrow) and then they went to the SNL afterparty at Catch Steak, where they held hands, etc. The Swifties are calling this Traylors hard launch. Like, its been a hard launch for weeks! But I appreciate that we now have photos of them together. He seemed very protective of her! Apparently, they plan to attend the Eagles game tonight (to see Traviss brother play).
Meanwhile, in the first weekend in October, Travis Kelce was in New York ahead of the Chiefs playing the Jets. He came to New York a few days ahead of the game, and he was seen going into Taylor Swift?s apartment building that Saturday night (the night before his game) and leaving the next morning. We can also sort of assume that when Taylor went to Kansas City to see her first Chiefs game, she spent some time with Travis in his surroundings, although we don?t know if she went to his house that weekend. I mean, maybe she stayed at a hotel? Who knows though. Well, Tay was back in Kansas City on Thursday and she went to the Chiefs game. She decided not to stay at a hotel, I guess. The Kansas City paparazzi claim that Taylor spent the night with Travis at his mansion.
Taylor Swift appears to have crashed at Travis Kelce?s home in Kansas City, Mo., Thursday night after cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs star in his game against the Denver Broncos earlier in the evening.
Photos obtained by the Daily Mail show the pop superstar?s security vehicle parked outside of the NFL star?s $1 million property early Friday morning.
According to the outlet, the white SUV is the same car that was spotted picking up Swift, 33, from the airport.
Reps did not immediately return Page Six?s request for comment.
Swift arrived in Kansas City early Thursday to make her way to Arrowhead Stadium for Thursday Night Football.
[From Page Six]
If you go to that Page Six link, you can see Travis?s $1 million Kansas City home, which is honestly lovely. It has great curb appeal and I bet the interior is really nice too. That home would probably be $8-10 million in LA. One of the photo agencies had photos of Taylor?s security in Travis?s neighborhood, which brings up something weird I guess he doesn?t live in a gated community? I mean, yes, it?s Kansas City, but it?s amazing that people really don?t bother him or come up to his house.
Anyway, it?s sort of like ?two 30-somethings spend the night together, news at seven.? I get that. But Taylor?s parasocial relationship with her fans means that I?m sure there are Swifty Puriteens crying about how Taylor would never have sex with a jock. To those Puriteens, let me say this: I bet it was really good too. That man looks like he knows how to lay some pipe. Taylor wouldn?t be hard-launching this thing if the pipe wasn?t good as hell.

| Sarah Ferguson wants to host an American talk show to support her ex-husband | Added 206 days ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Sarah Ferguson started a podcast months ago, before she was diagnosed with breast cancer. I have no idea if her pod is successful, but I would assume most people really just don?t care. Still, because Fergie is toeing the Firm?s line for the most part, she must be hyped as the next big thing in? American broadcasting?? The Mail is trying to start the rumor that Fergie might end up hosting an American talk show. Like? this isn?t a real thing. It seems the real story is that Fergie is back to scheming for a way to make money so she can ?support? her ex-husband.
The Duchess of York is hoping to land a lucrative chat show in America in a bid to help her ex-husband, Prince Andrew, pay his mounting bills. TV producer Amy Rosenblum told The Mail on Sunday that she met Sarah Ferguson at New Yorks Regency Hotel last month and discussed possible formats. Ms Rosenblum, one of the most respected figures in US television, who was a long-time producer of Americas top-rated breakfast programme, NBCs Today Show, said: Sarah told me, I want a show! I want a show! I did a pilot with her about 15 years ago. We were up against Ellen DeGeneres and ultimately they went with Ellen. But Sarah was really good when we did the pilot. We have been friends since then.
Ms Rosenblum declined to comment on specific pitches which may be in the pipeline. But an insider at ABC TV, part of giant Disney Studios, said: Fergie could reasonably expect to earn around 2million a year, but that figure would go up considerably should her show be a hit.
Shes always gone down well in America. Shes never been too proud to promote the heck out of anything, be it one of her books or WeightWatchers. Americans respect someone who hustles.
The ABC source said: Ellen has retired so there is a gap in the market.
Fergie is reportedly keen to help bankroll 2million worth of essential maintenance work at Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park.Andrew had faced losing his 30-room mansion until he paid 200,000 for urgent roof repairs this summer. A source told the Mail on Sunday: Its true Sarah wants to help Andrew stay in what she considers their family home. She lives at Royal Lodge when shes in the UK. Its very much their familys base. Andrew has lost so much. She will do everything she can to help him keep the house, even though it may prove untenable in the long term.
Friends say that the Prince has been left bereft by events and is a lost soul.
He rides his horses and goes for long walks but he is a lost soul and veers between bafflement and feeling bereft by the turn of events, said one woman who is in touch with members of his inner circle. He has always maintained his innocence and those close to him believe him absolutely. He is struggling. He was able to pay for the emergency roof repairs but that was very much an interim fix. The overall repair bill is considerably higher and you have to factor in the day-to-day running costs of a place like Royal Lodge.
Money, or the lack of it, has been a constant in Andrew and Sarahs relationship. She will do everything she can to support him now, just as she always has.
[From The Daily Mail]
The Mail also name-checked Kelly Clarkson and Drew Barrymore (but failed to mention Jennifer Hudson) as talk-show hostesses who are trying to fill the daytime market following Ellen?s exit. Again, Fergie isn?t getting a network talk show. Americans wish her well, but we?re not dying to see her on a talk show, and these days, her baggage (Andrew, Jeffrey Epstein) would weigh down the show. As I said, the real point of this story is ?poor broke Andrew.? ?He is a lost soul and veers between bafflement and feeling bereft by the turn of events?He has always maintained his innocence and those close to him believe him absolutely.? Bafflement? Does he not remember all of the teenage girls procured for him by Jeffrey Epstein? Did someone force him to settle out of court with Virginia Giuffre? Did someone force him to lie his ass off in a BBC interview? Good lord. The Yorks are a complete disaster, and I really hope that Eugenie and Beatrice are smarter about money and their associations.

| Mark Wahlberg feels pressure 'whether it's putting on weight, losing weight, whatever' | Added 207 days ago | Source: CeleBitchy |
|

|

Yahoo has a body image series pun-tastically named It Figures, where they talk to different celebrities and experts about body confidence and self-esteem. Their latest conversation was with Mark Wahlberg. I actually think this makes sense, cause Wahlberg?s fitness regimen is arguably the biggest asset he brings to his projects. During his talk, Wahlberg touched on his productive hours between waking up (insanely) early and getting his kids up for school, and also the pressure he feels to get in the precise shape required for a role. The struggle is real, nevertheless he persists:
Mark Wahlberg works hard ? just look at his alarm clock for proof. The actor, who previously woke up at 2:30 a.m. and more recently has added an hour of snoozing to arise at around 3:30 a.m., says this routine allows him to prioritize fitness and then leave the rest of the day to deal with the ?too many other things? he has going on.
The actor acknowledges that his early rising time isn?t for everyone but doesn?t understand people?s reactions to his personal choice.
?When I kind of talked about my schedule at that point in time, it got a little blown out of proportion and people didn?t know how to interpret it. ? People thought I was taking an hour and a half long shower,? he says, referring to the daily schedule he shared on Instagram in 2018. ?But it?s just getting up early, having my prayer time, meditation, doing my workout, and then reading and doing all the things that I need to do before I even get the kids up for school. It just worked for me.?
Bedtime is a priority for Wahlberg too. ?I want to get to bed as early as possible to get my eight hours of sleep.?
His routine aligns with ample research suggesting that the early morning might actually be the best time to exercise for various reasons. Wahlberg?s fitness goals, however, tend to be driven by his work.
?I always feel an immense amount of pressure when somebody takes a risk on me and says, ?OK, I want to have you starring in this film. And you know, you?re supposed to show up like this,?? he explains. ?Whether it?s putting on weight, losing weight, whatever it is, I have to deliver. I have to be prepared, I have to bring something to the table and I take that very, very seriously.?
[From Yahoo! Life]
?I always feel an immense amount of pressure when somebody takes a financial risk on my $30 million salary!? Yeah, the least he could do is get the physique right. Remember last year when we were laughing at the ?look at the weight I gained!? Oscar campaign he did for Father Stu? Well the joke?s on us, cause he did get a Best Actor in a Motion Picture, Drama nomination? at the Satellite Awards (and lost to Brendan Frasier). So there. Call me unforgiving, but all I ever think of when I see Mark Wahlberg is the $1.5 million he swindled out of a few week?s worth of reshoots for his supporting role in All The Money In The World (on top of being paid ten times the amount the actual star of the film made). And that?s really not fair of me, because it ignores the blithely callous statements he made about the Trump presidency.
