  1. Laura says:

    Okay Will, I laughed. Fair enough.

  2. BothSidesNow says:

    Oh my!! What will JLo do now that everyone knows that she incessantly uses filters on her IG posts. It angers me due to her heavily filtered pictures to sell her $$$$$ skincare line…… JLo still looks incredible for her age but it’s disheartening.

    • Coco says:

      JLO has been getting Botox and a little cosmetic surgery here and there for years. So people shouldn’t be too surprised by the filters.

  3. AppleCart says:

    He’s taking his cue from Alec Baldwin as long as you’re funny all is forgiven if you’re violent!

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    • Lorna says:

      No one died.

      • harpervalleypta says:

        And Will Smith came nowhere near killing anyone. A slap is not a gunshot.

        Because of that, Will already knows he’s going to be the main butt of the joke for this year’s Oscars. Jimmy Kimmel is going to roast him alive.(I’m interested to see what jokes are going to be made about him during the best actor presentation.)

      • AppleCart says:

        No, no one died when he attacked the paps and a parking spot. Please don’t connect this to Rust. That has nothing to do with his past behavior.

    • MrsBanjo says:

      @applecart
      Stop. They’re not remotely the same and it’s disgusting that you’re equating the two.

      • AppleCart says:

        Who said anything about the Rust shooting? And killing anyone. Over stepping much?? I am talking about him attacking the paps and blows over a parking spot. And then going on SNL being glib about it. Then getting another franchise in a movie.

        Sorry I wasn’t explicit about it. I didn’t think the jump to conclusions would be that outrageous 🙁

    • Emily_C says:

      What utter nonsense. They are completely different.

      • AppleCart says:

        How is it different for him to attack a guy over a parking spot going on SNL and all is forgiven again and again? This has nothing to do with Rust. That is not remotely the same.

    • KitKeller says:

      I think they’re referring to Alec Baldwin hitting paparazzi, etc- not the shooting. He has a history of violent behaviour that people have forgiven for years.

      • AppleCart says:

        Yes, I didn’t realize people would jump to conclusions with Rust. That has nothing to do with Will slapping a man on stage. How many times did Alec attack a man then go on SNL and talk shows crack a joke and all is forgiven?

        And as far as I know, no one is cracking jokes about Rust. Come on people really?

    • Sue E Generis says:

      Relax

  4. Blithe says:

    I do think that TikTok is pretty perfect.

  5. BothSidesNow says:

    How and why did LD chooses these ensembles for red carpet events?? Her mother is still stunning and chic and yet LD is clueless….

  6. Amy Bee says:

    White people decided that not the public.

  7. HeyKay says:

    JMO, but “the slap” has changed the way I see WS.
    His glory days are over as far as movies, well that is just me I think. But Wild West ended my fandom.
    His kids are complete nepo kids.

    He’ll be fine tho, he’s rich.

    • Lala11_7 says:

      The slap changed the way I feel about Will Smith too…always liked him…now I think he’s COOL AF❣️

      • Emily_C says:

        Ditto! I wasn’t sure how to feel, and I still wish I knew what Jada thinks about it, because I think that’s the most important thing. But while I was shaken for a bit, seeing the arguments against him and having some time to really think about it calmly? Will is awesome.

      • Mimi says:

        And his nepo kids are some of the talented ones. Willow’s new rock album is giving me life.

    • Van Rijn says:

      Have we ever learned why Laura Dern is Kaiser’s nemesis? I want to know!

      • Driver8 says:

        LD is Kaiser’s BEC. I love Laura Dern, but I respect Kaiser’s opinion. Liv Tyler is that for me. I have no reason to feel that way. She seems like a nice person, but I can’t help it, shrug.

      • Isa says:

        I haven’t heard Willow’s new album but her songs Meet Me at Our Spot and Wait a Minute! are so good.

      • Lucky Charm says:

        @ Driver8, what is BEC? I tried looking that up but no luck.

      • Normades says:

        Bitch Eating Crackers: Annoying AF

      • Becks1 says:

        It cracks me up because I’m that way with emma stone and jessica chastain. I don’t know what it is about those two, but they get on my last nerve and I can’t stand them (Stone more so than Chastain.)

        I think its funny how we can react to celebrities that we have never met in person.

    • Grace says:

      Same, 100% agree, HeyKay.

  8. Well Wisher says:

    Thanks for this post.
    It is a 10/10.
    Brevity is the soul of wit.
    This translates into what the reader brings to it.
    I am proud of Will. He’ll be fine, he understand his priorities.

    He has love, I wish him peace.

  9. Danbury says:

    those Asterix and Oblelix movies are THE WORST

  10. Murphy says:

    Embarassingly low pay is why Brittany Griner was in Russia in the first place!!

  11. SomeChick says:

    ok, so, off topic… but… I can’t believe Harry Styles doing a shoey in Australia wasn’t covered! was it and I missed it? because that is some funny ish.

  12. Isabella says:

    Will Sharpe and Audrey were my favorite characters in White Lotus. Jon Peters would be good in any role, but those two had chemistry. And it was great to see an Asian guy play sexy.

    • Normades says:

      Sharpe nailed Ethan’s angst and it made sense to make him a cute Asian guy. Otherwise it would of been two all white couples and it wouldn’t have been the same dynamic. Cameron had all the white male privilege.

      Now the real news to me is that the actress who played Daphné auditioned to play Rachel in season 1. She would have been excellent.

  13. Meghan says:

    I’m not even a Will Smith fan and I really enjoyed that TikTok. (He will always be the Fresh Prince and MIB to be so its hard for me to lose myself in any of his other roles. ETA- I’d love to watch Richard but i keep getting it confused with Richard III))

    I’m also curious how that plan would even work? Wtf would a pen think about me? And my car probably thinks “thanks for giving me gas and regular oil changes.”

    Also, I’d smack someone too if they were cracking low-ball jokes at the expense of my loved one. Like maybe it would have been funny if Jada had randomly decided to cut off her hair right before the Oscar’s and everyone was like “wow what a change” but then she AND Will would have been laughing along with the joke(s). I’m not here to advocate for slapping/hitting someone anytime they say something you don’t like, but this was more than that.

    And that’s my super important 2 cents a whole year later.

    • Emme says:

      @Meghan….I’ll tell you what my pen would say to and about me! It’d say “Why the ****did you buy me and that beautiful writing paper and matching envelopes, claiming you were turning over a new leaf and going to start writing actual letters so friends would get something other in the post than bills and crap? Why, just why?? Get off that damned iPad, stop sending everything electronically, and USE ME!”

      • Meghan says:

        Mine might say “Ma’am, you do know it is allowed to use a color other than blue, right?! Black is acceptable!” 🤣
