Game of Thrones: All the Reasons That Episode Sucked

Posted on May 6, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Like Rhaegal after an intense battle with White Walkers, Game of Thrones is sort of limping to the finish line. Opinion was mixed on Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 3 , as fans seemed split on how the series brought the story of the Night King to a conclusion. But the takes are far less divided when it comes to  Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 4 … for a whole host of reasons, starting with how the show has apparently devolved in a romantic comedy minus the comedy. And ending with what many believe to be straight-up racism. We've documented many of these complaints below, while also filing some of our very own. Scroll down and see if you agree. 1. Let’s Start with Brienne Get a few drinks (and something else) inside of Brienne and she apparently crumbles from a mighty knight to a scorned high school girlfriend. 2. Did They Have to Screw? The Jaime and Brienne dynamic had been one of our favorites on the show. Just a showing of mutual respect between unlikely allies and top-notch swordsmen. Why did the writers feel a need to throw them into bed? And to then have Jaime suddenly decide to go save Cersei? And then to reduce Brienne of Tarth into a blubbering mess after she got her heart broken? All in the course of like 10 minutes of screen time. Just… WHY??? 3. Can Jon Go Back to Knowing Nothing? Remember how Ned Stark held the secret of Jon’s lineage for like 20 years and then took it to his grave? And then Jon felt a need to spill it immediately to his siblings out of some weird sense of obligation? Yes, this happened. 4. And Then Sansa Kept the Secret for Approximately 27 Seconds We don’t blame her, really. We blame Jon for not listening to Dany. It would be one thing if Jon felt a moral need to tell the world and, essentially, let the voters decide. But he was totally fine lying about his heritage to everyone and taking part in a massive cover-up… as long as he could tell two people. 5. Now We Need to Talk About Missandei RIP and everything. But we have a few questions… 6. How Would the Golden Army Even Know Who She Is? That’s it. That’s the first question. How would they even know Dany had some right-hand woman? View Slideshow

Johnny Depp: FIRED From Fantastic Beasts Amid Abuse Scandal?

Posted on April 16, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

When Johnny Depp and Amber Heard finalized their divorce back in 2017, they both signed non-disclosure agreements that prevented them from speaking about their brief marriage in interviews. But now, a series of increasingly ugly lawsuits have put their split back in the tabloid headlines, and the financially-troubled Depp stands to lose a lot more than just another chunk of his fading fortune. The latest suit has Depp suing Heard for $50 million , alleging that she violated their NDA by referencing abuse she allegedly suffered at his hands in an op-ed piece she recently wrote for the Washington Post. The suit has seen both parties hurl shocking accusations at the other. At one point, Depp claimed that Heard tried to cut off his finger during a fight and very nearly succeeded. Heard countered that Depp is an alcoholic “monster” who frequently subjected her to violent abuse during his jealous rages. With $50 million on the line, it may seem that Amber has far more to lose in this situation than Johnny. But even if he ends up victorious in the end, the court case and all its damaging revelation may prove even more costly to Depp. That’s because Warner Bros. executives are reportedly considering firing the actor from his role as Grindelwald in the Fantastic Beasts series as a direct result of his current lawsuit. “Executives at Warner Bros. are wondering how to deal with the backlash of the Depp matter on the Harry Potter franchise,” a source close to the situation tells Page Six. “High-level female execs at the studio are extremely worried about working with Depp and the message it sends to the public, especially after the recent sordid departure of CEO Kevin Tsujihara.” Tsujihara recently left Warner Bros. amid allegations of inappropriate conduct directed at female employees. “This is yet another blow to the morale of female employees at the studio,” the insider claims. “If Warner Bros. continues to stick by Depp, it would reveal a lot about the values the company holds.” Several conflicted employees reportedly place some of the blame on J.K. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series who came out in defense of the decision to cast Depp as Grindelwald. “Many at Warner Bros. wish that Rowling hadn’t come out so strongly behind Depp, because having made her opinion so public boxes them into a corner,” says the informant. It seems the decision on how to handle the Depp situation has not yet been reached, but insiders expect Warner to cut ties with the actor soon. And astonishingly, Rowling isn’t the only billionaire who’s been dragged into the battle between Depp and Heard. Page Six also reports that Heard’s former boyfriend Elon Musk has been subpoenaed by Johnny’s legal team. Expect this situation to get much worse before it gets better.

Source: Bruce Glikas / Getty Men Who Got Spousal Support It’s a cold world out there, especially when men are out here trying to get spousal support from their rich and famous ex-baes. We’re used to hearing about women who get spousal support, but when it comes to men wanting the same, they get clowned, dragged and called all sorts of ashy. Fair? Well, let’s take a look at some men who asked for it, and some who even got some of the spousal support they were looking for. Let’s see how that energy is the same or not…

Scheana Marie: Lindsay Lohan Sucks and Her Show Is Boring!

Posted on April 11, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

When Lindsay Lohan’s Beach Club premiered on MTV back in January, the show drew instant comparisons to Vanderpump Rules . This was no accident, of course, as the press releases that led up to the show’s debut encouraged media outlets to make these comparisons between the two series. Superficially, Beach Club and Rules do have a lot in common, as both concern the drunken misadventures of a crew of horny hospitality workers — but that’s where the similarities end. The main thing separating the two shows is the fact that Vanderpump is a strong contender for the best non-scripted series on TV, while Beach Club has been described by some of the nation’s most esteemed critics (us) as ” the kind of trainwreck it’s easy to look away from .” Beach Club ‘s ratings started out low and declined throughout the season, so it remains to be seen if the show will return for a second season. (Smart money says we’ve seen the last of Lindsay’s sand-and-syphilis crew.) But Lindsay remains a subject of public fascination, so the Vanderpump cast are still asked for their thoughts on her failed experiment during interviews. The latest to be hit with the LiLo line of questioning is Scheana Marie, who did not mince words when Page Six asked her about Beach Club at a recent club opening. “My friend Kailah [Casillas] was on it and I watched her episodes, but other than that, it’s boring,” Scheana told the outlet “with a distinct eye-roll.” “It’s never going to be Vanderpump Rules because it was cast — our show is so good because it’s organic; we’re real friends. We’ve all known each other for a decade plus.” Asked if the other VPR cast members share her opinion that Beach Club is just a lame knock-off, Scheana replied, “Everyone.” Hilariously, cast members on Lindsay’s show also roll their eyes at the comparison — because they think Beach Club is the vastly superior series. “They should be so lucky!” clubber Billy Estevez told Page Six. “They work at a little, cheap restaurant in West Hollywood,” Beach Club ‘s resident douche villain Brent Marks chimed in. “Well, I mean it’s kind of expensive though, but I mean we work in Mykonos on an exotic island.” Hilariously, this is not the first time that Lindsay has gotten caught up in Vanderpump -related drama. For years, Jax Taylor has been saying he slept with Lohan , a claim the former actress vehemently denies. Was launching a rip-off and firing Scheana’s friend all part of Lindsay’s revenge strategy? If so, it might go down in history as the most petty and needlessly-elaborate revenge in modern history. View Slideshow: 37 Classic Vanderpump Rules Moments in GIFs

Meghan Markle: Top Secret Birth Plan Finally Revealed?!

Posted on April 10, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The weeks before the arrival of a new baby are always a stressful time for the expectant parents. And believe it or not, the whole thing is even more nerve-wracking for members of the royal family, who are forced to make their final preparations under the scrutiny of a watchful media and a few million well-wishers. It’s partially for that reason that the royal family has kept Meghan Markle’s exact due date and the location of her delivery under wraps. The last thing they need is a throng of adoring fans bum-rushing the car that’s rushing the duchess to the maternity ward. Of course, all that secrecy hasn’t stopped the British tabloid press from piecing together a whole lot of hearsay to form what they’re calling “Meghan’s birth plan.” Here’s what we actually know so far: Initially, Meghan was planning to give birth at Frimley Park Hospital in Surrey, near the couple’s new home at Frogmore Cottage. Though not nearly as famous as St. Mary’s Hospital in London where Kate Middleton welcomed all three of her children, Frimley Park has served as the site of a few royal births in the past. As Entertainment Tonight reports , Prince Harry’s aunt, Sophie, Countess of Wessex welcomed both of her children there. But it seems the small country hospital may have been nixed by Meghan’s doctors, who may be anticipating complications due to her age and the fact that it’s her first child. It’s for that same reason that they reportedly put the kibosh on Meghan’s very first plan, which was a home birth. But despite the fact that Meg will almost certainly be in a hospital on the big day, she’s reportedly planning for the delivery to be as “natural” as possible. “Her mother is very into anything that is holistic and natural, and having been brought up with yoga and mindfulness, it’s all very much part of Meghan’s birth plan,” a source explained to Vanity Fair. Frankly, we’re of the opinion that drugs are perfectly natural, and needless suffering is as unnatural as it gets, but what do we know? As for where the birth will take place, one insider says he would be “hugely surprised if Meghan didn’t give birth at the Lindo Wing” at St. Mary’s, as the facility is the only one known to have the “security and resources needed for a royal birth.”  Corroborating that claim is The Telegraph ‘s report that staff at the hospital has been instructed “not to take holiday in April.” Of course, the downside is that St. Mary’s is roughly 23 miles from Frogmore Cottage . But we’re sure the royals have access to some MI6 badass capable of chauffeuring Meg to London in an armored Jaguar in four minutes flat.

Nipsey Hussle Fans: Harassing Daughter of Chris Darden!

Posted on April 9, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

When the suspected killer of Nipsey Hussle pleaded not guilty to all charges, he didn’t do so alone. By his side was his attorney, Chris Darden, who gained fame and notoriety decades ago as a prosecutor during the O.J. Simpson trial. Now, misguided Nipsey fans are bombarden Darden’s daughter with hate on Instagram, and she is speaking out. “I’ve been receiving vile comments and messages,” Jenee Darden’s heartbreaking post begins. This has been happening “since news broke that my father, Chris Darden, is the defense attorney for the man accused of killing Nipsey Hussle.” “Like many of you,” Jenee writes. “I found out about my father’s involvement in the case while scrolling through social media.” “I was not prepared for this backlash,” she admits. Jenee adds that he vitriol directed at her “has triggered bad memories from the O.J. Simpson trial.” “My father is a grown man,” Jenee points out. “And has been a defense attorney for some time.” In case it was not obvious, she reminds anyone reading her message: “I have no say in the cases he takes on.” Jenee adds that she knows better than most “why it hurts so deeply when we lose talented, young Black men.” She is a black woman herself and a journalist with a real passion for matters of justice. She asks that Nipsey’s fans “channel that energy toward continuing Nipsey’s legacy in strengthening our communities and lifting up each other.” When Nipsey says that her comments have been flooded with hate, she’s not kidding. It took us mere seconds to find examples. “So your dad is representing the killer of Nipsey???” writes on commenter. “Wowwww.” “Your dad is scum,” declares another, who decided to make their opinion her business. “YOUR FATHER IS A COWARD AND A TRAITOR TO HIS OWN PEOPLE!” accuses another. That same hater writes: “ALWAYS HAS BEEN AND ALWAYS WILL BE! F–KING DISGUSTING!” Each of these particular comments was under an Instagram post about Jenee’s excitement about Avengers: Endgame . In reality, Jenee herself had already posted multiple times mourning Nipsey before she or anyone else knew who Eric Holder’s attorney was. “When our Black men are taken from us, the women left behind have to carry a different weight of grief,” Jenee acknowledged in one post. “I feel bad Lauren London is going through this,” she expressed. Jenee wrote: “As she grieves, she has to be strong for her children. I hope she has support.” In conclusion, she asked: “When we go learn to stop killing each other?” In another post, Jenee drew parallels between Nipsey and another talented artist of color who was taken from the world too soon. “Selena was murdered March 31, 1995,” she wrote. “Nipsey Hussle was murdered March 31 2019.” “They both died over some cruel and pathetic person’s brittle, insecure ego,” Jenee accused. Selena died when a fan who managed Selena’s boutiques was caught embezzling and murdered her. Nipsey was allegedly shot multiple times in the head and chest by an acquaintance, Eric Holder, following a personal dispute. So, first of all, we should point out that people are lashing out at Jenee because she’s within arm’s reach, so to speak. She’s not representing Eric Holder — her father is. She’s an unfair target. Additionally, even if Chris Darden were on Instagram to receive these vicious messages, it’s not really about him being an attorney. People are grieving the loss of Nipsey and they just want to express their anger at a deserving target. With Holder in prison, they’re directing their fury at the easiest target. It’s terrible, and it happens all of the time. Secondly, suggesting that Chris Darden doesn’t care about his fellow black people is both vile and absurd. The racial dynamic of the O.J. Simpson trial may have been the first time in history that a man got away with murder because he was black. Tragically, there have been countless cases of innocent men convicted because they were black, both before and since. Also, Eric Holder is a black man. Chris Darden is representing him. He’s doing his job as a defense attorney. That’s it. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2019: In Memoriam

In White Folks News: Justin Bieber Is Blamed For Environmental Destruction In Iceland

Posted on March 25, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Hindustan Times / Getty Well Damn One could probably blame Justin Bieber for a lot of things. Bizarre, yet entertaining antics ? Yes. Pop songs you can’t get out of your head? Maaaybe. But environmental destruction? Who would’ve thought. This is what one Iceland community is claiming after the Biebs shot his music video in the country. According to Page Six , Bieber filmed his 2015 video “I’ll Show You”  at the 2-million-year-old epic canyon Fjaðrárgljúfur. Now, ever since Bieber showcased the beautiful grounds, the area has been flooded with visitors, causing destruction of the canyon’s sheer walls, its narrow pathways and its vegetation. Things apparently got so bad the Icelandic Environmental Agency had to close it down. IEA official Daníel Freyr Jónsson said, “This canyon was somewhat unknown… The great increase in foot traffic began after Bieber came.” Oops. Guess it’s too late to say sorry. You can watch the frolicking video that eventually wreaked havoc on the lands below.

Who Hurt You? Daniel Caesar Issues A Moronic Mea Culpa For “The Way He Expressed” His Heada$$ Belief About Black People

Posted on March 25, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Jeff Kravitz / Getty Daniel Caesar Tries To Apologize For Comments About Black People Last week we deep-fried drunken and sunken Daniel Caesar for the self-loathing comments he made about how Black folks are “too mean” to white people like YesJulz (a caucasian culture vultress who didn’t even acknowledge his caping not a single time). This week, d!ckhead Daniel is back on Al Gore’s internet copping pleas and half-assedly “apologizing” for HOW he expressed his sunken beliefs, not for the content of what he believes. “I expressed my opinion in a very pretentious… I was talking down to you guys,” said Caesar. “I apologize for how I expressed my idea because that is where I went wrong. I believe in what I said. A real man can admit when he’s wrong. I can admit when I’m wrong.” He went on to say… “There was no one there to challenge my ideas. That’s also dangerous. That’s why it’s tyrannical. It was a very tyrannical rant because a tyrant doesn’t have people around checking him.” Daniel Caesar apologizes for comments he made during his IG live rant. pic.twitter.com/T8L11qq3G9 — Karen Civil (@KarenCivil) March 24, 2019 He can keep that “apology”. If he thinks that white people are “the winning team” and that in order to be more like them that Black folks need to adopt their “strategy”, then that’s just what it is. We don’t particularly care about HOW he expressed such a dumba$$ idea. GTFOHWTBS.
