The saying means, for example, you can’t support #TIMESUP and praise sexual predators at the same time. You can’t retain your credibility as an activist (i.e. – retain the cake) and, at the same time, praise a sexual predator (i.e. – eating the cake).

YASSSSSS, Dylan! Come through!
I’m glad she called out Justin and many other actors/actress who worked with Allen, like Winslet, Blanchett, Lively and so on. To see these people standing up against sexual harassment after working with him and praising him – Lively even said ‘he empowers women’ – sounds like a joke. Sorry but my feeling is that most of them – not all of them but most – joined Time’s Up because not being part of it would have made them look bad.
I’m gonna put this tweet on my living room wall.
WORD.
#NeverForget
Murder!
Really? He doesn’t know what that means? Obviously, you can’t HAVE your cake and eat it too. If you eat the cake, you no longer HAVE it. Dylan’s analogy was spot on.
Lol! Yup, he is a complete moron! And Dylan is awesome for never letting these assholes off the hook.
Yes. And does JT not have Google? Why ask Twitter?
For attention probably.
Everyone knows what it means. I think he was just pointing to how strange that phrase is. I don’t understand it either.
But he asked someone to “explain it” to him. So guessing he didn’t know or was pretending not to know what it means.
No. He knew exactly what it meant. He just didn’t think he did anything wrong to warrant people calling him out. So he was being a douche. And he was schooled hard by Dylan Farrow. And he’s conferring with his “handlers” as we speak on how to dig himself out. Just wait for the “non-apology” apology. Which everyone sees through.
The phrase is about saving and spending. Think in terms of money. It’s nice to think about having 1,000 in the bank. It’s also fun to buy something really cool for 1,000 bucks, but if you do that, you won’t have the 1,000 in the bank anymore.
That expression is about hedging about hard issues or decisions and wanting to have it both ways when one way will necessarily negate the other.
Do you hate child predators and rapists? Is it fun to denounce them generally at awards shows to demonstrate that you are socially aware? Then you can’t work with one the next day and praise his genius.
He’s a 30+ yrs old American. He KNOWS EXACTLY what the eff it meant. That was him tryna be clever by playing dumb, which only made him look MORE like a dummy AND an azzhole, removing any doubt by opening his mouth (another saying I’m sure he’s REALLY not familiar with) 😒
I didn’t know until a year or so ago. I actually thought it was some existential thought.
Now I know. Or I understand it to mean you can either admire the came. Enjoy seeing it. Or eat the cake and enjoy tasting it. You can’t have both. It’s 1 stance or another. I haven’t really applied it outside of cake gazing and eating.
I think the original saying was “you can’t eat your cake and have it too”. Somehow it got turned around and IMO became a lot more confusing!!
You’re absolute correct, emma33. It simply means you can’t have a certain thing both ways. So, since you’ve eaten the cake, you can’t still have (be in possession of) it. It’s one of those adages that, over time, got switched around. It’s a misquote, just as “curiosity killed the cat” is a misquote. The real quote is “Curiosity killed the cat. (But) satisfaction brought it back”.
when i was really little I didn’t understand the saying, so i went around telling people “you can’t have cake and ice cream! you have to pick one!” lol As an adult I say “you can’t have cake AND pie!” lol still cracks me up.
He totally walked into that one. What an idiot
I fainted and came back after reading her response. EPIC.
Oooooh burn!
Go Dylan!
Maybe JT needs Matt Damon to mansplain it to him.
Lol
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Dylan !!
Surprisingly, I really like Diane Krueger’s dress. I normally hate mixed print dresses but the two prints work together (love the tiger and bird) and it really fits her perfectly. Hair and makeup is perfect too!
I almost didn’t recognize him without his coke eyes, or whatever they are.
Dayum. Justin didn’t respond, so now he’s looking like the dunce that just took his seat in the corner.
RE: Drunk History. My favorite is the Harriet Tubman episode. Everything about it is genius, including the map!
Yes! That episode of drunk history is my favorite!
And re: JT
I’m still waiting for Laineygossip to write this up, can’t wait for the laughs.
She already did:

Unfortunately, not a dedicated post. I was waiting for a proper dragging, too.
No… lainey will drag him, she lives for this… eagerly waiting…
Drunk History is a gem. so funny, and interesting, too!
the Lin-Manuel one was GOLD.
The Harriet Tubman (Octavia Spencer), Al Capone (Joe lo Truglio), Lewis & Clarke (Tony Hale & Taram Killam), Mary Pleasant (Lisa Bonet), SOOOO many informative and actually FUNNY ones that I quote on a regular basis (*cough*syphilis!*cough*).
The best parts = when the comedians’ stutters, drunken babbles/tirades, & generally rude bodily functions make it into the renactments. 😆
Don’t forget Billy the Kid! “Boom, boom, boom” and the dead horse, LMAO!
Way to go, Dylan!
If somebody offered me the choice between a new car and the chance to kick JT in the balls, I’d keep my 8-year-old Kia and plant my foot squarely into JT’s crotch.
I’m sure there’d be a line!
He is such a f*cking moron. I cannot stand him. Go Dylan.
I know he worked with him, but what has Timberlake said as a praise to Woody Allen? Does anyone know?
See press junket of latest weak-tea, redundant Woody film that was recently released
Lol it’s almost impossible to find when you google “Justin Timberlake praises Woody Allen” only Dylan Farrow articles come up. I was just curious if he’d said something truly loving or just the generic “I’m so honored to have worked in this film” blah blah.
Knob. He thought he was being oh so clever, smart alecky… and he got schooled. Hard.
He’s someone who totally believes their own press. So he thinks he’s above it all. Hope this is the beginning of everyone being over JT. Like his buddy Fallon, these guys have been coasting on their success from the 90s. And they have overstayed their welcome.
Times are changing, boys. Get on board or get run over.
Savage!!!
BURN. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy.
Oh snap! He actually had the saying wrong, duh: You can’t have your cake and eat it too. Of course Dylan educated him, but if he knew the phrase correctly, it explains itself. If you eat the cake, asshat, the cake is history.
Wow that was even better than what I was expecting. Way to go Dylan!
Apparently Dylan and Ronan have been harassing publicists and agencies to get their clients to denounce Woody. It is getting ridiculous. Alec Baldwin tweeted about it. Bullying actors into saying “i won’t work with him again” is hardly the way to go.
Sorry but I need a more credible source than Baldwin to believe that
I hate Dylan Farrow and other professional victims like her. Woody was deemed innocent in a court of law.
professional victim?
Please!
And he was not deemed innocent (for the 500thousandth time!!!)
SHE was deemed too fragile to be put through a re-telling and trial. The prosecutor actually issued a very unusually sternly worded statement about how they probably had enough to prosecute (couldn’t say it unqualifiedly or they would have HAD to prosecute him); but didn’t want to put the child through more trauma. She’s old enough and healed enough to fight now and she’s a professional victim? You’ve clearly never known or dealt with victims of childhood sexual abuse.
Oh wait…you’re trolling.
Well, shame on you for that too….
Putting any sexual assault victim/survivor on the stand is a last resort. It opens them up to being blamed. To doubt their memories or reinforced their own feelings of shame or even guilt that comes from blaming the victim shaming. The damage is massive.
I was 19 when my rape was brought to trial. Even then it had to be a bench trial because I was too fragile. It had to be a closed trial because I feared people. And I didn’t even testify. I did read a victims statement to get my account on the record. And that was me! Much older. The assaulter was not an authority figure like Dylan’s was. And it was still horrifying.
So I hope people start understanding because a victim doesn’t speak out right away it’s for survival instincts. It’s a pain you can’t face. This troll is absolutely mindless.
And professional victim… That’s Trump.
@FLORC
You were so brave and strong to go through that trial. Sorry you had that happen to you.
Yes, exactly. Just like O.J. Simpson and George Zimmerman and countless others who’ve escaped justice.
Lol if you weren’t tried in a court of law, you WERE NOT deemed innocent by said court.
Courts don’t deem anyone innocent. They deem them not guilty. It’s an important distinction.
Random through on Timberlake, but I have a feeling he’ll have a ‘surprise’ country star duet with him at the Super Bowl gig. It’ll show the NFL and fans that it’s ok, he’s white again.
Word. Of course.
Nope. It’ll be Janet herself and he’ll position himself as the redeemed white savior. He gets the press and the $ pre and post superbowl – she gets 5-8 min of being his ‘woke’ accessory piece to a set list of his choosing.
He’ll think this (too little too late) effort will win back a portion of the ppl he pissed off during nipplegate and further entitle him to even more gratuitous ego strokes.
I hope she 4 member/5th Harmonys his ass in the first 30 sec. Only way this performance would be watchable.
It doesn’t matter. I’m not even sure he will (after being explained to him with cards, puppets, drawings, etc.) ever understand he got his sorry ass owned.
Timbershit never sees anything beyond his own reflection and what his “yes people” say.
Perfect response
This citizenship case blows my mind. I have dual citizenship in part because of my mother. I was nationalized at 14, but this helped. My grandmother (yaya) was born in the USA. She moved to Greece. Had my mother. And my mother was given citizenship in the USA from this connection. I was allowed in the USA from Greece because I was her daughter and she had citizenship.
This in full detail is a horrific mess of who was where, when, and what happened. This case of the women and their son. So much simpler. And yet it’s denied. Wtf?
Meanwhile I was told I had the option of applying for citizenship to Switzerland because my father was born there and retained citizenship.
Maybe a slice of humble pie instead of cake, JT? Just a thought.
Shakira lives in Spain, had her children in Spain, and makes use of the country’s resources. Why shouldn’t she pay tax? Especially since she spent a lot of time there according to the dates mentioned.
Right on, Dylan!
