Jared Freed
Hello and welcome to the J Train Podcast. This is J Train Jared Freed coming live from the West Village of Manhattan. That's right, Every Thursday. It's a pop culture Thursday. I just went to page six. I have so many articles, so many headlines in front of me. So many. The full. The tabs are. It is a full tab. Does that make sense? All the tabs are open. I can't fit another tab. There's actually the arrow that makes you scroll to the right to see the other tabs. Just a lot of headlines today. So one of first couple things. Two ads today. Two ads, great for the holiday season. If they can help you use the promos. I'm in Des Moines, Iowa this weekend. If you know anyone in Des Moines, I'm coming in there hot. I still have, you know, we tape the Specialized. I talked about if you're missing the Tuesday episode of the J Train podcast, it should be there now. We uploaded the wrong episode. We uploaded Monday twice, but we've fixed that. Tuesday was a really good episode, too. It was. I was, like, really happy with it. Um, a little bit of a bummer to get the messages in the morning. Hey, it's the same one. Listen, I talked a little bit about the special taping and how appreciative I was of everyone who came and how I'm going to, you know, I have this, like, I'm going to miss the material. I'm going to miss doing the show. But I'm coming into Des Moines and I last night I did some shows of the seller. We're figuring out some new stuff. So it'll be a combination until the special comes out. Wherever it comes out, My road material will be a combination of the old stuff that I taped in Tarrytown. The thing about the Tarrytown show is there was a through line and it connected. I'm probably going to disconnect those bits and just use them as quote, unquote, crutches as I do these new bits that I'm going to try and connect as one set. So this will be what's going on in Des Moines. This will be what's going on in Batavia. I'm coming there as well. The Saturday early show is already sold out, so I'm looking forward to a fun weekend in the Chicago burbs. And then I'm going to be in Portland, Oregon, after the new year. I had done the material in Portland, so there will be. It's definitely going to be a lot more new. I have this thing about my dad offering me His Ozempic that, like, I am so stuck on, but it's a little similar to the last material, but it is just so fucking stupid. So I'll be talking about that. Portland, Oregon, and then Arizona. And if you're listening now, I'm gonna be in Phoenix. And then if you're listening now, I am going to be in Montreal. Montreal. I'm gonna be in Montreal in February before I head out to New Zealand and Australia. So those are the dates. Jared free dot com. I also talked about Tuesday, kind of the plan with the touring schedule, that the plan is to get material ready for a theater run in the fall of 2025. So that is all the live date information. Would love for you to come assemble the group chat, bring a friend and come to live laugh and love. And we're here on Pop Culture Thursday. Otherwise. Okay, let's start it. Kim Kardashian dating someone new, following Odell Beckham Jr. Fling. Now, the more we do Pop Culture Thursday, the more I think, where is this story coming from? When I see a headline, and again, what I do is I read the headlines and then I click it and I don't read the article and then I read it with you in real time. That's the whole premise of Pop Culture Thursday. It's basically Page Six podcast. And if you have stories you want me to read, I am more than happy to do that. Kim Kardashian. Well, I. When I read the headline, I go, well, okay, who wants the story out more? Kim Kardashian or Odell Beckham Jr. I think it's Odell Beckham or it's a joint. You know, to me, I think Kim Kardashian is such a pro at being in the public eye that her and Odell hook up, they hang out, then they decide, eh, we're going to kind of. It's gotten in the news. We're going to separate. We're not going to do this anymore. Hey, we should put out a story so that we can both go and be seen flirting with other people without drama. To me, it's like a favor from her. Hey, Odell, let's put out a story. We're done. You. You go your way, I go my way so that you don't get crap on your socials if you're seen in a story with other women. And it frees me up, too. That's my, like, if I was to be an investigator, you know, that's my loser in a studio apartment in the West Village view of this. If I'M to give a view Kim Kardashian because they don't name who no one knew. There's no name. The only name. It's weird for Kim Kardashian be like, hey, I'm dating someone new and then include Odell Beckham Junior's name. Like I didn't even realize that they were dating at all. Kim Kardashian is dating someone new months after her fling. See fling with Odell Beckham Jr. Because to me page six the New York Post page six is a tool for celebrities and PR people. This is where they get their story put out without them having to write it in a caption of an Instagram post. Me and Odell have decided in a joint collaboration post like they're not going to do that. It's a fling. It's two people that hooked up and we're not the match. If you if you were to look at it without emotion. A source revealed to Us Weekly Wednesday that the mom of four has started dating someone new but is keeping it very under wraps. However, it seems like fans won't see her with anyone famous, as a Source teased that Kardashian, 44, previously said the next person she dates will be someone who isn't famous. This feels like Willy Wonka. Who has she chosen? Who got the golden ticket? And then they show a bunch of pictures of Kim Kardashian. She is so beautiful, I have to say. She is so hot. Maybe I could win. No, she is just. They show pictures of her that I'm like, man, that hits me right in the part of my brain that goes. That's my type. The Skims founder the Skims founders new romance comes eight months after her fling with Beckham Jr. Fizzled out. See Too little to be a collab post. Too much in the news for it to not be acknowledged. So this is actually the more I read this, the more I think this is Kim Kardashian getting ready to tell us who she's dating. 9-20-23 A source revealed to People that Kardashian star and the Miami Dolphins wide receiver, 32, had been hanging out casually in group settings. However, they wanted to keep things low key for the sake of their respective kids. Beckham Jr shares son Zinn Zined. I hope I'm saying that right too. With model Lauren Wood, while Kardashian shares North 11, Saint 8, Chicago 6 and Psalm 4 with X. I didn't know they had four kids. That's. I didn't even realize. No one told me. Although. Although the Two never showed up, showed any PDA or were photographed or were ever photographed on dates. They attended the same parties throughout their fling. She even showed up at his birthday party. This is a fling that got out there. Maybe they wanted it or not. And now they have to put it to bed before they can both move on. That is the story because all of it's just updates. Most notably, the duo was seen at Michael Rubin's fanatic Super bowl party in Las Vegas. I this Michael Rubin guy, I've heard him on podcasts. He's got a whole tale to tell. I don't know how fanatics got every license, every single one. This guy, I just, it's hard for me to buy his. You know, this Michael Rubin guy, he tells us like rags to richest tale dropout, you know, couldn't read. I again, I'm going based on what I think. I know maybe I'm wrong. It's just so unbelievable to me that fanatics with. I mean, fanatics, what they do well is they have garbage products at high prices that people will pay. I've never worn something from fanatics and been like happy with the purchase. I've bought a bunch of things from them because you're kind of put into this. I don't know how this became a Michael Rubin complaint thing, but I don't know. I just, I take issue with that being the only option. There's so much good, like fan stuff that's out there and just the T shirts don't fit well. The. The hats look crummy. The jerseys are awful. The fanatics is also in charge of like the MLB baseball jerseys and then they redid them. If you go look at the before and after the mlb, the baseball jerseys of what they did to them, it's. They're awful. So, yeah, this story is just these two letting us know they are done. They want one of them. I think Kim is going to come out with a boyfriend sooner than later. Elton John says his health has never been better despite losing eyesight. The only reason I clicked on this, I generally steer away from like a story. I'm not. There's another story that I find sad and upsetting, but I just don't think that's a true headline. His health has never been better despite losing eyes. I would say that is part of your health. I wouldn't want to be blind here. Elton John said that his health has never been better despite losing sight in one eye and having complications with the other. What happened with his eyes? The. I'm still standing Singer appeared on Wednesday's episode of Good Morning America with his husband David Furnish, when he was asked about his past health challenges. Well, David and I have always, always have blood tests every six months in Los Angeles and our health has never been better, he explained. The eyesight thing, it's a, I guess for Elton John, good thing he's been known for kooky glasses. The kooky glasses, I guess. I don't know. Does that help? Does that hurt? People will? Well, I guess it helps because he can wear glasses anytime instead of like, hey, why are you wearing glasses in the house? Like, you wouldn't have to change up. I can understand how someone who's going blind would want to wear glasses to take attention away, to dress them up. The Grammy winner, 77, went on to explain that it's been four months since he's been able to see in his right eye. That is brutal. That sucks. While his left eye is now not the greatest, there's hope and encouragement that it will be okay, john clarified of his left eye. We're taking an initiative to try and get it better, but at the moment that's really what we're concentrating on. The Rocket man singer furthered that it's never fortunate for anything like this to happen. I can't see anything. I can't read anything. I can't watch anything. Oh y well that stinks. But he can still play the piano. The Rocket man singer first announced his eyesight struggles in a statement released in September. Over the summer, I've been dealing with severe eye infection that has unfortunately left me only limited vision of one eye, he wrote at the time. I'm healing, but it's extremely slow process and it will take some time before the site returns to the impacted eye. John later sparked further concern when he spoke with the guests at the Devil Wears Prada, the musical charity gala in London last week. You would think here's the thing, as a as some of you know, I've been had some issues and I've lost my sight. I haven't been able to see the performance, but I have enjoyed listening to it. John thanked Furnish for being his rock throughout the ordeal and helping him embrace the musical for which he created the original score. I've lost my eyesight, so it's hard for me to see, but I love to hear it, he continued. And boy, it sounded good tonight. Okay, thank you for coming. I this story, I, you know, now I'm going back to like, why have this story to me? This is a page six story this is Elton John. We're going to post about it. Is his health okay? He says he's doing okay. I am sitting here as you know me. I clicked it because I'm like, I didn't even know he had eyesight issues. If I'm Elton John, I'd, you know. If you had to do the, you know, the choice, what do you lose of the five hearing. What are the five senses? This makes me sound stupid. I the five sentence senses. It brings me to a Korean restaurant. What. What are the five senses? Someone's going, okay, seeing, hearing, touch, taste, smell, balance. We have more than five senses. I mean, this is. Okay, well, let's go with the originals. Hearing, touch, taste, smell is balance. Signal, collection, trans. I mean, I'm sorry, this is going too long. Eye, ear, skin, nose, mouth. Okay, so what would you rank them? Hearing, I guess sight is of the things I wouldn't want to lose my touch. But I don't even understand. I guess I can't put. My brain doesn't work in the way to go what that even means. Like, how do you lose touch? I guess if everything hurt me now I became ultra sensitive. That would be awful. That's not a life worth living. That's a bad life. So I think touch is the number one thing I don't want messed up to put words to it. Yeah, eyesight, I think hearing. If I'm. I'd like to keep my hearing. Taste. I can't lose taste. I don't even know if I'd lose weight. I'd still eat. But if you can't taste anything, people dealt with that in Covid. Okay, here's the ranking on most not want to lose, not want messed with. To messed with. I don't want. It's Number one is touch. Number two is that I don't want because just being in pain all the time would be awful. Number two is I don't want my taste messed with, but I'd rather hear and see than. Yeah, I'm getting confused. I'd rather hear and see than taste, but I do love food. But I would be okay. I could still make it through the day. I wouldn't need help. I don't think that's a big thing. So, you know, you don't want to lose independence. That's a big thing. So I want. So number one, that I wouldn't want messed with. Touch. Number two is hearing. Number three is no. Number two is eyesight. Number three is hearing. Number four is taste. And then number five is smell. Smell I think I'd be okay. It would suck. All of them suck. Okay, so now we get to another story that's a little bit on the subject of like it kind of depressed me but like I don't think that she's going to get the love. Brandy Glanville, who I just know as beautiful woman who was on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. That's all I know about her. Brandi Glanville says doctor believes facial disfigurement could be from parasite that jumps around her face. That is quite a headline. So there were two Brandy Glanville articles. The other one is Brandi Glanville lost five teeth while batting battling facial disfigurement. And I gotta say like she the reason this like I feel for Brandi Glanville because she's like a drawing of what you would draw of like the stereotypical good looking Beverly Hills woman. So I would assume and I'm. I think this is something society puts on you is that so much is put into your looks and then to have this like thing get into your face. What you might think is a facial disfigurement from parasites is like crazy. Brandy Glanville says she lost nearly half a dozen teeth while struggling with her facial disfigurement and underlying issues. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum, like I just have to think a lot of your worth would come from facial things when you are look the way Brandy Glanville looks. And to have that like, it's almost like a bad fairy tale, like a wish to a genie gone wrong. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum explained a new in a new interview with the US sun that her health battles began with stress induced angiodema. I don't think I'm saying that right. Which caused her face to swell up and affect her teeth. I've lost five teeth out of my head so my face has been looking really thin. Okay, that's a weird way to say that. I lost five teeth out of my head so my face has been looking really thin. It's a weird way to say it, but I understand what she's trying to say. Like that I look, my face looks thin because my head is missing five teeth. Glanville, 52, then gave a shout out to her friend and former co star Phaedra Parks for introducing her to a dentist, Dr. Anjali Rajpal, who wanted help to want it to help. It's the holiday. She's giving me the gift of a smile again. It and we're in the process. So I haven't. I have one new tooth in the back, which I'm so excited about. She raved. I'm looking at a picture of her. Amid her treatment, Glanville discovered infected teeth. I can eat again. I'm not chewing with the front teeth and I can smile again. But it's a work in progress. I mean, teeth is one of those things you don't want to lose to. These are, to me, underrated. The Traders alum, she was on Traders, the Real Housewives of Ultimate Girls, of Ultimate Girls alum admitted that she did not feel good when she could not smile with her missing teeth. Yeah, that's like a. That's one of those things that, like, you hear about, like, what are the things that, you know, hold you back? Teeth is a big thing when your face swells up and goes down and swells up and goes down, your teeth move. And I had a bridge that was very, very old and unbeknownst to me, there was an infected tooth underneath that. This, to me, I wouldn't wish this on anyone. This is one of those, I think underrated, horrible things that I feel bad for. I wonder if she gets as much because, like, again, tall, blonde, model esque woman, I don't think gets a lot of like, like empathy. In addition to her physical health, Glanville said the health conditions also affect her social life and mental health. Yeah, this is. I wasn't socializ anyways, but okay, but you really don't want to be. Want to because you don't want to have to explain everyone why you're missing a tooth. I mean, my dad was missing a tooth for my taping and I'm like, what the hell's going on? Where's your tooth? And he's like, I'm getting it replaced on Monday. I can't have life. I'm not going to go away. And it's like, yeah, you have to explain it. They show pictures of her. The former bravo Liberty explained that she's also trying to change her outlook on life. I mean, this is the thing. This is like you get to your 50s and you are a tall, blonde model squad woman. And then this kind of like comes out of nowhere. After spending $10,000 on lab work alone, she met with several doctors, including an immunologist, an infectious disease doctor, and a rheumatologist, among others. The doctors eventually diagnosed her with a facial parasite that she may have contracted during a trip to Morocco. I've been on this meds, meds this whole year. She Said it's just frustrating for all of us. I. I gotta say, I don't know how many people are singing the I Feel bad for Brandy Glanville song. I don't know anything more about her life other than being a Bravo celebrity. But I will say, let's just say the J Train podcast. From us to you, Brandy. I don't know how much that means it's worth thinking about. Megan Fox dumped Machine Gun Kelly after she found text messages from other women in his phone. So this is, like, where. So yesterday I found out about this, that Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox are having a baby, and then she's pregnant and finds text message. She is. I mean, they just showed. They showed a picture where I'm, like, mesmerized. Gorgeous Megan Fox is done with. I mean, this is where it becomes unrelatable, I think, to normal people. If you're pregnant, you kind of like. You and your husband kind of, like, disappear together for nine months. Like, the. You know, maybe you come out once a month and you do your glass of wine while your husband gets drunk, and you are the designated driver in your small town. But, like, the idea of being pregnant and your husband is, like, texting other women. Like, where are you even meeting other women? Aren't you supposed to be bringing my pint of ice cream that I'm craving and the pickles again? This is like, where the stars are just like us. No, no, no, they're not. Megan Fox is done with Machine Gun Kelly after discovering he was talking to other women behind her back. Source exclusively tells Paige. I guess it's like my vision. Of what? Being with someone who I am. You know, we. She's pregnant and I'm the father. I don't know. I guess I'm not trying to sound like a good guy. I'm just saying it sounds like crazy. Like, who are you texting? But he's. He's also a musician. He's a rock star. So he is. You know, Chris Rock has. Has a line in one of his specials like, you're only as faithful as your options. So, like, I do understand that, like, Machine Gun Kelly has women approaching him in ways that, like, fuddy duddy, you know, we're pregnant, and we just, you know. You know, we live in Des Moines. Doesn't. I guess it's actually crazier for Des Moines dad to be texting with another woman while his wife is pregnant than Machine Gun Kelly. When they went away for Thanksgiving holiday, she became suspicious and decided to go through his phone and Insiders. Our insider says this is. I mean, this is clearly from Megyn Kelly or Megan Fox. I'm sorry, her side, I mean, which. No problem. The Transformers star, 38, found text messages involving other women inside. She was done with mgk, whose real name is Colson Baker. He does look like a Colson Baker. I mean, while pregnant is brutal. They show all these pictures of them together. That Jennifer's body actress always had trust issues with the rapper and singer songwriter, 34, because of past behavior. So that means he's cheating. In the past, they've also had their ups and downs over the. Anytime you see ups and downs, there's been issues over the past few years, but she was willing to look past that. All that. Our insider says Megan wanted to rebuild trust with her, with Colson, was excited to grow their family together. I mean, you would hope a baby. I guess when you have the baby, you go, I hope this like, again, the way I see. Again, the way I just explained. If I'm in a relationship with someone who's having my baby, I would hope that, like, this is something I'm concentrating on. We're doing the one night a week, you know, one night a month out with her glass of wine. You know, I, I would. You would hope that maybe this, you know, pushes Col into place. Megan is strong, independent woman, doesn't need a man in her life. Our insider explains. Yeah, this is straight from Megan. Reps for fox@MGK did not immediately respond to page six request. Yeah, okay. As we previously reported, the on again, off again couple, who are expecting their first child together, broke up over Thanksgiving while in Vail, Colorado. So she saw some texts. I mean, oh, the actress is already mother to her and her ex husband Brian Austin Green's children. Oh, she's already got kids. They show them in Disney World. They have three kids together now. She was having a fourth with him. Ah. It's funny. Like, we were talking about it. I think Jordana and I were talking about it yesterday. I was like, maybe, you know, she was like. She was like, machine gun dumped Megan. And I was like, well, why didn't she maybe dump him? And Jordana was like, you think a pregnant woman dumped her husband? And I'm like, well, I guess this is the only way it would happen is I found the text. We have sponsors. I told you two sponsors this week. Great gifts. Aura. I'm looking at my aura frame. I do.

So those are our ads today. Easy peasy. The Birkin body surgery package now comes with Carbone delivered to your hospital bed. This is one of those Chef Kiss beautiful page six headlines that keeps the business going. You got Birkin, which is the the bag that is expensive beyond belief. You have body surgery. People love a body surgery article. It's a package. Okay, so this is something the rich and famous do. They get a Birkin and a body surgery and now you're adding in Carbone which is like the can't get in New York City restaurant. And it's added to this package. It is just a fabulous page six headline. New York City's chicas doctor has added another gilded touch to their so called Birkin body package. The city's finest food delivered to your hospital bed. Now. Now I'm trying to figure out where this article comes from. To me, the doctor has a PR team and this is something the doctor created to drum up business. It's funny that something that's this high end is drumming up business in the same way KFC ads, you know has says hey let's make a commercial where we talk about the macaroni bucket that we're selling in 2022. Page Six reported that Dr. Ryan Neinstein has a program so has a program so named because the wait listed service is almost as hard to as the coveted Hermes or Hermes purses of the same name. So he's basically saying my surgeries are as hard to get as a Birkin bag in which patients get chauffeured to his office. And Berg, he has an office in Bergdorf Goodman. This guy is a genius. This is again, you don't just do your surgery. You do, you go, I need a way that makes my surgery worth more than the other surgeries. Hey, we can all do a tummy tuck. To me, I'm sure you know, it's like every one of us, these doctors got an A at Harvard. At a Harvard. Okay, well how do I make my A cost more than the next Harvard educated doctor's A. Well, it goes from one way or another. You either get a reputation, this is the guy everyone goes to. This is who you gotta go to. You got word of mouth. Or you go this direction. In which patients get chauffeured to his office in Bergdorf Goodman for their nips and tucks before being transported across the street to the Plaza or the Pierre to recover. 24 hour nurses, fresh flowers and lymphatic drainage massages. So the package is you're getting the surgery at Bergdorf. We put you in a beautiful car and we send you to the Plaza or the Pierre and we got this like instead of a hospital room, instead of you're going to get treated the fanciest version, you're going to get the most comfortable version of a, of a surgery. Now we hear that his latest perk, perky perk is that his staff will pull strings to get dinner from Carbone or other favorite eateries brought to recuperating reach. The recuperating reach. This is great. And now they have a picture of the doctor the and it's the so called Birkin body package. All of this is wonderful. Want matzo ball soup from second Avenue deli or a spicy rigatoni vodka from Carbon. The hotel has a hostess for just has a. Has a hostess just for Neinstein. Neinstein patients to make sure that NYC comes to them as they recover from surgery. This is, this is a fabulous job. This is the doctor understanding marketing. This is hiring a PR person who gets what his audience wants. And honestly, if you can afford this, this is what you want. I want to wake up from my tummy tuck in the plaza and eat Carbon. I want to be the adult version of Kevin McAllister in Home Alone too. We're told most patients want liposuction or so called mommy makeovers. But close to 30% of the patients are men. Many as couples who come together, especially during the holiday season, leaving them enough time to recover for the summer. This is. This is like, you know, it is so interesting to hear people complain about the price of eggs and then this also be a story. We live in a weird world. Drew Barrymore admits people have warned her to back off with touching us during interviews. So this is a thing. So Drew Barrymore has a show and it's a daytime talk show and she does get touchy feely with the guests. And it's like, it's a little bizarre. And I do understand, like to some that is like the likable nature. She's just like someone I know or me. I'm touchy like that. To some it's like, why are you touching someone you've just met? Drew Barrymore admitted she's been warned to keep her hands to herself. If I went on this show, I would just be in her lap. I would just go all out. I heard you like to touch people. Well, I'm in your lap now. Drew Barrymore admitted she's been warned to keep her hands to herself during interviews on her. I don't know the meaning of this word. Eponymous. Eponymous. Eponymous talk show. Let's look. Am I an idiot? Yeah, I am. Giving their name to something. Eponymous hero of the novel. Oh, so they're eponymous. That can't be how you say it. It's not like hippopotamus. It's that the name. The talk show is named after her. The Charlie's Angels actress, 49, made the admission while chatting with Cynthia Rivo, 37, about the Wicked stars touchy feely ways with co star Ariana Grande on Tuesday's episode of the Drew Barrymore Show. Is this. Is that. Is it true that she's as touchy? Is it true that she is as touchy? Barrymore asked Erivo about the pop star before discussing her own habits. This all makes sense because the Erivo and Ariana Grande interviews where they're on top of each other are actually weird. I watch those and I go, I have no connection to them being as like sing songy with the reporters. There was that whole thing where it's like people are making space for the song and they. And they look at them and they look at the reporter. They're like, oh. And it just seems to me it's fake. I just don't. I don't buy it. I wouldn't be comfortable in a conversation with people doing the sing songy and then grabbing each other's fingers while like massaging each other. I'm so touchy. Barrymore confessed. People have to warn me. They're like, back off a little bit. I'm like, why? Because maybe someone doesn't want to be touched. Barrymore has made headlines for being too affectionate with her talk show guests, including Martha Stewart and Oprah Winfrey. During Tuesday's episode, Erivo explained that she is now used to Grande's constant physical touch. Oh, so this is, to me, this is Erivo being like, hey, I'm not the weird one. Can I just, like, let the record clear? I mean, to say this in an interview is a little. Is her separating herself from Ariana Grande. It makes me like Eriva more. It's not, like, connected. I'm like, what's wrong? What's happening? Where are you? Erivo admitted we walk hand in hand very often. Like, if we're not walking hand in hand, we'll find each other somewhere. Erivo believes that people are often afraid of physical connection or we don't want to touch someone we don't know. What do you mean afraid? Don't make this, like, everyone else's problem. Some people like it, some people don't. There's a little bit of consent in the, you know, in this that's not being talked about. Like, you know, I remember when I started doing comedy and then people started getting know each other. A lot of the comics would like, you know, like, they'd like. If I saw a male comic at an open mic, I'd say hi and then move on with my life. And then you'd see a lot of male comics, like, hug the female comics. And you'd be like, why? We're all at work. Why do we have to hug? Why are you hugging her and not him? Like, I just never understood it. I'm big hand up to the sky and a wave guy. I'll let someone come to me with a hug, I guess. You know, like, I'm again, I'm nowhere. I'm not, like, against a hug. I'm not for a hug. I'm just like, I want to hug the people that I hug that we both believe we should be hugging. I don't like this. Oh, people are afraid of physical. Yeah, we're afraid of strangers touching us. Yeah, I would say. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I think we assume that physical connection can only be. Only be romantic. No, no, no. I don't think we do. I just think it's for people that are both consenting to a hug. Look at. They show Drew Barrymore, like, draped on Paris Hilton. They show her doing. See, look it. There's a picture of her with Oprah where they're doing. They're saying hello to each other and they have both hands interlocked with one another. That is Oprah being like, you stay over there and let's keep it to us. Just interlocking hands. That's her pushing her away. Revo then defended Grande, 31, for her prevailing, her prevalent pawing, saying that's what works for their relationship. Very kind of arriva, because it sounds like her being like, that's not how I do things. That's how she does things. I'm willing to go along with it. Jamie Foxx jokingly declares he's done dating white women after stroke. Six year romance with Katie Holmes. I'm cured. So Jamie Foxx has a Netflix special that is out right now. And it's all a response to, like, this kind of. You did hear that Jamie Foxx was going through health issues. Now, if he had a stroke, I can understand. Let me just say Jamie Foxx is one of the most talented people alive. This guy, actor, singer, comedian, he does it all. So him doing a Netflix special, in any other world, I guess I would be annoyed by this because, like, this guy, like, you never heard of Jamie Foxx doing the road. You never heard of working on this material. I do think he's a genius. I do think he's unbelievable. I mean, this guy, I think he won an Oscar, like, and there's like a famous roast where he, like, basically made fun of a guy to the point where he ended the guy's career like, this guy. What? And so it's. So this is an ad for his Netflix special. This is. He has a Netflix special. He got money from Netflix. They hired a PR person. PR person went to Page Six. It is a clickable headline. They said, yes. What had happened was he dated too many white women. Jamie Foxx jokingly declared that he's done. It's funny that in the special that would be funny written in here. It's like, wait, what? You know, it sounds a little, you know. Jamie Foxx jokingly declared that he is done dating white women and that he. I mean, this is also a joke premise that has. You've seen people do. This isn't the first person to ever go on stage and go, I'm done dating the white woman, you know, or black eye to say that that is something that's been done, that he's been cured from. Doing so while breaking out into song at the end of his new Netflix special. What had happened was. Okay, so sisters, I'm here to tell you I've been cured. He said while sitting at a piano. Yeah, this is, this is a talented dude. This is. I. The idea that he does a standup special that ends it with getting on the piano and doing a song where he's talking about, this is good for Jamie. I've been cured of everything. No more white girls. I'm serious. No more white girls. No more white girls. No more. No more white girls. I mean, this is a quote. I'm reading a quote. And they show him behind a piano at his Netflix special. Listen, there's not a lot of comedians who can do this. The Django unchanged star whose relationship with Katie Holmes came to an end in 2019, then went on to sing that he is back on the black side of town. No more potato salad and raisins, he continued. No more white girls. No more spray tans. No more big titties, no ass. No more white girls. I gotta let them know. I mean, I'm reading this. This is quote, Fox 56 then referenced black History Month by saying that since there will be no more white women in his romantic life, it will be February all year round. And then they show him getting a standing ovation while he has sunglasses on again. You know when someone has a special and it gets a big play and you're like. And a lot of it's due to fame. Comedians, us trolls, us losers who go on stage and do sets at the clubs, get annoyed. I am in no way annoyed by this. The Grammy winner. He won a Grammy and I mean the Grammy winner. Then jokingly clarified, no more white girls in public, which resulted in a round of applause and laughter from the audience. Good for Jamie, this guy. Before Fox made the declaration, he poked fun at his fans for spreading rumors online that he had been cloned. He added that rumors stopped once he was spotted with a white woman. Although Fox didn't mention any names, he was most recently linked to Elise Huckstep, who was first spotted with the Blame it singer in May 2022. Well, now I'm going to watch a special. This, this worked. This page 6 article worked on me. You got, you got, you got a view. And listen, if you're listening right now, it might have worked on you. So there's been. This is Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie offered jaw dropping amount to appear on screen together again. Okay, so Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, if you're new to pop culture Thursday. It is pretty evident that they are arguing through the press. It is pretty evident that they are not. They are not doing well as person to person because so now any Brad Pitt and Angela. And this is under. To me, it's all a little bit of a they. They're trying to be as class. This is like old school Hollywood arguing. We bring it to Page Six. They have suffered through the most high profile and bitter Hollywood divorce of the last 50 years, which is incredibly still going on. See, Brad Pitt, 60, and Angelina Jolie, 49, are now being offered a blank check if they can somehow put their love of acting over their differences and start a movie together. According to one overly optimistic producer, Danny Rosner, whose previous cinematic high points include spoof 2001, a space travesty with Leslie Nielsen, an action movie, the ultimate weapon with Hulk Hogan. Okay, who is this guy? Claims he is serious about his offer and has raised around 60 million from his backers, which he hopes would be enough to entice enemies Brad and Angelina to bury the hatchet. So again, I don't know how this podcast turned into my theories on why these stories are here, but immediately, this is me. This is the. This is this person, Danny Rosner. He doesn't have the number for either of them. He does have the number for Page Six and he wants to let them know that they could make a gabillion dollars if they make a movie together. And they both don't want to do this. But this is him be. This is him taking a shot to me. This is him shooting a flare to let them know if you need money, both of you, from this huge divorce you're going through. There's a check to be written. There's a bunch of people who pay you a ton of money because again, the movie industry right now is in trouble. The only thing that sells is big names. This is the biggest. They've been fighting in the. In the press. The more fighting, the better for this check that they could be given. That's exactly what's going on to me. We'll end with this story. The other ones, I mean, there's a Lindsay Lohan poses for makeup, free selfie with dermatologist trust and confidence. Everyone's talking about how great Lindsay Lohan looks to me. This is her paying her. This is an ad for her dermatologist, which deserves it. She does look amazing. The dermatologist is hot. Dr. Redmilla Lukian. She's cute. The dermatologist. She has great skin, too. They shared A selfie. I mean, this is an ad for her business. I wasn't going to do this one. Following much speculation about the about how the our little secret actress achieved her youthful, radiant appearance, her cosmetic dermatologist, Dr. Rodmila Luke Lukian shared a selfie of the two with Lou with Lohan bare faced after a treatment. Trust and confidence are the foundation of our relationship. The Dubai based anti aging specialist Captioned with the Post this woman, the Dubai based anti aging specialist, is about to be the richest dermatologist in the history of dermatologists. Because I don't know who wouldn't go to her after seeing Lindsay because there was this assumption that Lindsay Lohan had, you know, had aged and didn't look, you know, was kind of off. And now she comes back looking amazing. And they go, who are you going to? What are you doing? And a lot of this is witchcraft to me. Skin stuff, a lot of it's just not drinking alcohol and staying, you know, like, to me, like, I get asked about my skin. What's your skincare routine? I have none. I don't put makeup on. That's my skincare routine. I think the idea that women are wondering what someone's routine is when I don't put makeup, I don't put things on my face. I don't touch my face. You put your fingers on your face every day you put things on your face. That makes skin, you know, acne. To me, that's. How could the answer be anything else but this woman's about to, like, be the richest person alive. Because everyone wants to know the answer other than the real answer, which is don't wear makeup and stop drinking alcohol, which is not what people want to hear. Okay, well, there's two stories I want to do. The Kathy Hilton one, she. I guess she locks away her nudes or something. Here's two stories I want to do because I want to sit here. I got to defend my buddy Tyler Cameron, who I have a. Whether he knows it or not, I think he's a great guy. Tyler Cameron reacts to backlash over posting awkward text fight with girlfriend Tate Madden. I paid the price. Now, I saw when Tyler posted this, it was something along the lines of he went out for ice cream and didn't include her. Tyler Cameron reflected on catching a lot of heat for publicly posting screenshots of his text fight with girlfriend Tate Madden on Instagram. I got crushed for that. The Bachelorette alum 31 and exclusively told Page Six at the Celsius Paddle Classic at Wayne Boish's Miami Paddle Club during Art Basel on Friday, Cameron admitted that he thought it was funny to share the awkward exchange with his 2.2 million Instagram followers, only to find that Madden was not pleased at all. I thought this was funny. It's something I would do. So I paid the price for it. Learned my lesson. He said some jokes should be kept inside. Yeah, this is a mistake that even I remember, you know, when I was in a relationship, it's a mistake I would make. As Page Six reported last month, Cameron shared a screen grab of a text conversation which Madden scolded him for getting ice cream without her. Now you're mad again? He asked her in a text change, to which she replied, I just don't understand why anything fun you do you don't want to do with me. We'll go to Riverside, have a fun night. So she was mad that he didn't get ice cream with her. He fired reacted by firing back, we're getting ice cream. Are you kidding me? This is a fun moment. The reality star then wrote over the post, don't go on a sweet treat run without your girlfriend. Lesson learned. I think that's fun. I think that shows to me that shows you're being public about to me. And then I saw the backlash. Fans immediately called Cameron out for airing their dirty laundry. Go fuck yourself. Let me just defend Tyler Cameron right now. That is such bullshit. The fans who are reacting to Tyler, listen, I'm not telling his girlfriend to be not mad or not with him. This isn't about them. This isn't about her being upset. I can understand your boyfriend went out for ice cream. He didn't include you. You're mad. Okay, I think that's that is there is nothing wrong with that. I there's no shame and I'm not going to tell her how to feel. He then posts I, you know, you this is a fun. He, he don't go on a sweet treat run without your girlfriend. Lesson learned. And he posts that. And then she gets even madder at him for putting that out there because she's actually bad. I think she's right. That's okay. That is a couple having an argument. Let me just say him posting don't go on a sweet treat round without your girlfriend. Lesson learned on social media is a show of affection and love for his girlfriend and you can't tell me anything otherwise. It's not like he went and buried it and didn't say it out loud and hid his girlfriend and hid their problems and went back and Thought about it for anyone, the fan saying, airing their dirty laundry. When he is a. He's one of the most. You know, he's a model man with 2.2 million Instagram followers. For them to even say that he is, like, somehow a bad boy. This is, to me, couples quarrels. He is sitting at the negotiation table with a girlfriend, openly and outwardly. Some might say, well, that's a low bar. No, I don't think it is. I think it's actually sweet. I think it's. Listen, their fight is their fight to me. For anyone to respond to this quarrel that this couple's having with, whoa, what a manipulative. What a jerk. I saw some of the passion people had for calling him out on this, and I was like, these are the most miserable single people or their husbands are miserable. Because I couldn't have thought less of anyone who was angry at him. When asked Friday how he made it up to her, Cameron told us, lots of ways. Lots of ice cream trips. Yeah, this guy's the man. This guy's great. He's good to her. The Going Home With Tyler Cameron host admitted that he isn't going. He isn't one to hold back on sharing his personal life online. I like to have fun. I like to put out there. I don't care, he said. Team Tyler. However, the heartthrob did admit that having all eyes on his dating life isn't always easy, of course, especially when he and Madden hadn't publicly confirmed their relationship. Who needs them to confirm? Tate told me it was hard when the whole world doesn't know that we're at what we are, but we know what we are, he said. Then we came out as a couple, so now it's like we feel much better about it. Okay, now we're figuring out what the issue was. They're a couple, but they're not saying it. They haven't done an official post about it. These are the fights that every couple has, whether you have two followers or 2.2 million. I just. My passion comes for the passion that was against Tyler Cameron, because I was like, you guys are fucking miserable. Anyone who looks at this fight and doesn't see that it's a guy who likes his girlfriend and is including her in his life, I can understand how she feels. The girlfriend. I understand we're not out there. I'm not sure I am mad that you left me out of the ice cream trip. But the response to his response was insanity. The couple dated privately for more than a year before confirming they were an item in October. So they're an item team. Tyler, great guy. That's right. We're a Brit, we're a Glanville podcast and a Tyler Cameron. Here's someone that I just generally, anytime I see her name I'm like, it just seems like she's stinks. Instagram scammer Caroline. I mean she's literally in the, in the, in the title. Instagram scammer Caroline Callaway seemingly claims she slept with suspected assassin Luigi Mangione. So this guy is the one that is allegedly murdered. The CEO of the healthcare company. And then controversial online personality Caroline Calloway seems to be stirring the pot yet again, appearing to claim she once slept with the suspected United Healthcare CEO assassin Luigi Mangione. On her Instagram stories. The accuser scammer. The accused scammer, an unreliable narrator posted screenshots of a text conversation that says, oh my God guys, I literally fucked the United Healthcare CEO assassin. And are you literally kidding me? The text is highlighted in blue suggesting Calloway herself sent the message. Yeah, she created this. If you need me, I'll be lying face down on the floor. I just don't understand what the draw of her is. I don't get it. She's a self proclaimed scammer. This is like in this world of like I'm awful but I don't give a shit. Known for her chaotic rise to social media fame, Calloway first gained attention with posts about her time at Cambridge University. She later raised accusations of failing to deliver on a book deal and selling tickets to mostly non existent workshops. Yeah, her workshops were like how to make it on social media or something. I think at one point she even hawked a dubious homemade beauty elixir called snake oil. Like I don't like this. I'm aware that I'm an asshole, but I'm selling you the asshole. I don't it just nothing about what comes out of her in the news makes me like a fan or into it and I don't know and it's not. She joined OnlyFans in 2020 and finally released a book titled Scammer like making Money. Like to me it's gotta be exhausting to be her to find new ways to be selling this. I'm a scammer. So you're in on the joke or the bit? I don't know. I. It is, I don't understand. And again that's her bit, that's her move, that's her business to me, I don't understand who buys that. That's one of those things. And again, as my dad has always said, you know how much it's worth? Whatever. Someone will pay for it. I can't believe people will pay for it. That's, I guess, my ending. Thought on this pop culture. Thursday, every Thursday, back next week, boom.
