Snoop Dogg to Meghan Markle: Get High With Me, You Fly-Ass Duchess

Posted on January 8, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Snoop Dogg and Meghan Markle might never enjoy Thanksgiving dinner together, but it looks as though Snoop desperately wants to join her in one of that holiday’s proudest traditions. We’re talking of course, about getting high on her nephew’s pot. Allow us to explain: As you may have heard, Meghan’s nephew, Tyler Dooley, lists his profession as “cannabis farmer.” This works out well for a number of reasons. For one thing, “Tyler Dooley” sounds like the name of a weed dealer played by Seth Rogen in a ’90s high school comedy. More importantly, Tyler is reportedly making a killing marketing his hilariously-named “Markle Sparkle” strain in states with legal weed. And he may soon land an endorsement from the Michael Jordan of stoners. According to Radar Online, Snoop D-O-double-G is very eager to sample Tyler’s wares. One insider tells the site that the rap legend “can’t wait to get stuck into a blunt filled with Meghan weed.” Either the phrase “stuck into a blunt” is some extremely white source’s hilarious attempt at sounding cool, or we’re just painfully out of touch. Both scenarios are equally plausible. Apparently, Snoop’s been a fan of the Duchess ever since he learned that she offered weed to her wedding guests when she married Trevor Engelson  in Jamaica in 2011. And on top of that, it seems dude is just a fan of the Windsor clan in general. “Snoop has always been mad on two things: weed and the royals. So Markle Sparkle combines two of his favorite things,” says the source. “He’s asked his local cannabis dispensary on Hollywood to order him some Markle Sparkle and wants to visit Tyler’s cannabis farm when he’s in Oregon for a smoke,” the insider adds. “He’s even willing to review the weed for Tyler’s website and promote it if it means he can get a free supply.” Of course, Meg has probably chilled on her partying since becoming a royal, but Snoop’s dream of smoking a Dutch with the Duchess continues to burn bright. “One of his biggest fantasies is to smoke up with Meghan herself and tells pals he’s delighted a ‘weed-loving’ gal has joined the ranks of the royals,” says the source. We’re sure that one will have to wait until after Meghan gives birth  this spring. But interestingly, it seems Meg’s not the only female member of the Royal Family to catch Snoop’s eye in recent months. The rapper recently revealed that he hopes to one day cook dinner for Queen Elizabeth II. “As this is The Queen we’re talking about, the only thing that will be going inside these brownies will be chocolate,” he joked at the time. “I don’t want to get banned from the UK again!” Don’t sell QE2 short, Snoop. She’s 92 and probably up for anything — including burning one down with you and Martha Stewart. View Slideshow: Meghan Markle vs. Kate Middleton Feud: Tearing William and Harry Apart?!

Meghan Markle & Kate Middleton on Christmas: See! We’re Totally BFFs!

Posted on December 25, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Kensington Palace is really hoping that a picture says a thousand words. And it's now hoping those words are all very positive. Following weeks and weeks of rumors that claimed a major rivalry exists between Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton , the Duchesses attended church together (with their husbands) in Sandringham on Christmas Day. Kate donned a festive red coat dress with a matching hat and shoes… while Meghan went with a deep navy dress and a Victoria Beckham coat with a matching fascinator. For once, however, attention wasnot on these women's fashion choices — but rather their facial expressions. Were they happy to be seen together? Did they make small talk? Were they friendly? Comfortable? Awkward? We've shared a number of photos below from the occasion and we'll leave it up to our readers to decide: Does these two totally hate each other or not? 1. Look at Us! BFFs!

Meghan Markle and Queen Clash Over How to Handle Her Awful Dad

Posted on December 20, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

This week, Thomas Markle lamented that Meghan had ghosted him , and announced that only Queen Elizabeth II can mend his broken family. We now know that this disgusting betrayal of Meghan’s boundaries may have ruined his chances of reconciliation. See, Meghan had hoped to resolve tension with the Queen by getting back in touch with her father, but he just destroyed his chances. A new, in-depth profile by Vanity Fair tracks the breakdown of the Markle family. The most interesting revelation is that the Queen was so concerned about Thomas Markle’s paid photo ops and his interviews that she wanted to step in. “She was very concerned that it [the Markle situation] was spiraling out of control,” a royal insider reveals. “Which,” the source admits. “It was.” That is true. There is nothing about Meghan’s relatives on her father’s side that seems remotely under control. “Buckingham Palace wanted to be able to do something,” the insider adds. According to the source, the Queenw anted to take action “and be proactive and make the situation go away.” “It was a direction from the Queen,” the insider notes. “So her courtiers were under strict instructions to sort it out.” The royal family has dealt with scandals before. They take their responsibility as essentially very wealthy mascots very seriously. “But,” the source reveals. “Kensington Palace was not singing from the same hymn sheet,” That is a hilarious euphemism for disagreement. “And that was because the message was coming from Meghan,” the insider explains. Meghan, filled with embarrassment and shame that her family was being a royal terror, didn’t want to burden her in-laws. “She didn’t want to engage,” the source says. “And,” the insider continues, Meghan “thought that she could handle it on her own.” Apparently, this difference of opinion caused a little bit of tension between the two courts. Fittingly, it sounds like the sort of royal drama you’d get on a BBC production rather than on HBO. Meghan didn’t want the tension, however, so she was reportedly prepared to begin speaking with her father on a trial basis. She would have the strict condition that he not open his yap and resume blabbing to any media outlet that would listen. Unfortunately, just days before this report was released but very likely after Meghan had resolved to resume contact, Thomas was back on TV. Thomas Markle appeared on Good Morning Britain to talk incessantly about any topic that came up. Admittedly, it was nice of him to give Piers Morgan the rare opportunity to not be the worst person on the show. But this was a terrible thing to do to his daughter, whose alleged plan to resume contact with him blew up in her face. Thomas rambled on, claiming that Meghan and Harry believe whatever they read in tabloids about what he says. He openly wondered why Meghan hasnt’ contacted him. As anyone on the planet can tell him, it’s because he cannot be trusted to not blabber to the nearest camera. The monarchy is old and fairly unique. But family drama is as common as families. It takes different forms, but it exists. Some very toxic people have called out and insisted that Meghan should speak to Thomas simply because he’s her father. In fact, some morons have even claimed that Meghan’s silence is killing her dad . She doesn’t owe her dad the time of day. And after the way that he has disparaged her in the news and crossed her carefully laid boundaries, he’ll be lucky if she ever sends him a postcard.

Kim Kardashian: Meghan Markle and I Are Going to Be BEST Friends!

Posted on December 12, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

As pregnant Duchess Meghan Markle defies the monarchy , she may find that she needs new friends. It turns out that she won’t have to look far, because Kim Kardashian is reportedly angling to befriend her. Kim believes that the way to worm her way into Meghan’s life is by finding the perfect royal baby present. Heat magazine reports that Kim Kardashian has concocted a scheme to become besties with the Duchess of Sussex. “Meghan’s baby isn’t even born yet,” an insider points out. That’s true — Meghan Markle is due some time in April. “But,” the source says. “Kim is already brainstorming an OTT present.” In this context, OTT stands for over the top . “Which she hopes,” the insider elaborates. “Will seal her long-held ambition.” Apparently, the source says, it has been Kim’s fondest wish “to make Meg a friend.” “Money is no object,” Kim has reportedly said on the subject. Well, that’s more or less a given when it comes to Kim, who is wealthy even by her very rich family’s impressive standards. “The arrival of the royal baby will be a perfect time for her to remind Meghan and Harry that she and Kanye are thoughtful people,” the insider says. Well, Kim is very thoughtful. Kanye is … complicated. “And, the source notes. “She’s looking to stand out from all the other celebrities.” According to the insider, Kim wants to draw attention to herself “with something truly impressive.” No, she is not referring to her butt. Apparently, Kim is going above and beyond as she tries to choose the most perfect royal baby gift. “She’s been getting her people to research everything,” the source reports. The insider says that they are pouring over possibilities “from diamond baby jewelry to crystal nursery decor.” That sounds a little gaudy, but … we’ve all seen the royal aesthetic. It was conceived before taste was invented. “Kim is convinced she and Meghan will be best friends one day,” the source claims. Interesting! That said, Kim has zero expectations that Meghan Markle is just going to wake up one day and want to hang out with Kim nonstop. “It’s very much a long-term project,” the insider explains. “And,” the source continues. “She’s chipping away.” The insider says that Kim is looking for ways “to impress her when the opportunities arise.” So, basically, this is like any seduction, just with a much higher budget. We can understand Kim’s alleged process here. Most of us have been there, even if we weren’t conscious of it when we were doing it. It’s not uncommon for people to deliberately make friends with someone who is super popular — or to try to make friends. Kim just has unlimited resources at her disposal while she tries to strategize. But will her wealth and fame be enough to impress her way into Meghan’s inner circle? That is a very tall order, these days. Meghan probably knows how to spot fake friends and inauthentic “new friends” a mile away. She’d have to, given what her life is like these days. But is this report about Kim’s ever-growing ambitions true? We … do not know. While it is easy to imagine that anyone might want to befriend Duchess Meghan, this report is entirely unconfirmed. We’ll take it with a grain of salt. And if it’s true … well, maybe we’ll actually feel sorry for Jonathan Cheban for being replaced.

Meghan Markle: ANOTHER Royal Staffer Quits Amidst Growing Controversy

Posted on December 10, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Aside from its current residents, no one knows exactly what’s going on inside Kensington Palace. But we think it’s safe to say these are wild times behind the palace walls. For one thing, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry won’t be laying their heads at Kensington for much longer. The couple will be relocating to the awesomely named Frogmore Cottage , where they’ll presumably enjoy high tea with a dapper toad who’s always consulting his pocket watch. Whimsical fantasies aside, the possible reasons for Meghan and Harry’s move have fueled constant speculation. Many have concluded that the long-rumored Meghan vs. Kate Middleton feud has reached a fever pitch, and it was decided that the best solution is simply to separate the two combatants. It sounds like typical tabloid fodder, but the situation has become so dire that Kensington Palace actually released a statement about the supposed feud. And apparently, it’s not just Kate that Meg is locking horns with these days. Recent weeks have seen numerous reports of royal staffers quitting because of Meghan and her alleged diva-like demands. Again, it sounded like the sort of thing the British tabloid press loves to fabricate out of whole cloth, but now the evidence is piling up. Last week, Meghan’s assistant, Melissa Toubati, unexpectedly quit her job. Sources close to the situation say Toubati felt she had been “terrorized” by Meghan throughout her brief tenure. Now, another royal staffer is departing her post, and once again, Meghan is being blamed. The Daily Mail is reporting today that Meghan and Harry’s interim private secretary, Samantha “The Panther” Cohen, has declared that she will not seek permanent employment with the couple and will instead resign after Meghan gives birth. As her hilarious nickname indicates, Cohen is no shrinking violet. The Panther is a 50-year-old Australian who was selected due to her tireless work ethic and tough-as-nails attitude. “Sam will be a huge loss,” a source close to Meghan told the Mail . “Going forward, Meghan might need someone cut from a slightly different cloth to traditional courtiers, who is not a career civil servant or royal insider.” Yes, Cohen was chosen for her reputation as a badass, and even she wasn’t badass enough for Meg. So who what sort of assistant is the Duchess of Sussex looking for now? Well, it seems she has some very specific requirements in mind. “Meghan needs someone with reserves of energy and patience to help her define her future role,” the source says. Feel free to gank “I need someone with reserves of energy and patience to help me define my future role” for your Tinder profile. Of course, if you don’t have a royal title in front of your name, you might not be able to pull it off. View Slideshow: Meghan Markle vs. Kate Middleton Feud: Tearing William and Harry Apart?!

Meghan Markle: Is She REALLY Pregnant With Twins?!

Posted on December 4, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Every royal pregnancy becomes a subject of global fascination, but the scrutiny and speculation surrounding Meghan Markle’s forthcoming bundle of joy might be unprecedented. Barring some sort of royal massacre worthy of George R.R. Martin, Meghan’s child will never inherit the throne, but the unborn guy or gal is already receiving more press attention than any monarch of the modern era. Of course, one of the more obsessed-over mysteries is the question of whether Meghan is having a boy or a girl . And for the past week, social media has been abuzz with reports that the Duchess of Sussex might be expecting a boy and a girl. Yes, the tabloid press is convinced that Meghan is having twins , and as far as we can tell the speculation began with a single report: “Meghan’s hinted numerous times that ‘double trouble’ lies ahead,” a source told Us Weekly , adding that Markle has been “spotted affectionately putting her hand on her stomach and saying she can’t wait to meet ‘them.'” In suspicious fashion, the “insider” abruptly shifts from the vague to the very specific  “Meghan has been busy decorating a safari-themed nursery” with two cribs in her apartment at Kensington Palace and that “Harry’s been helping, putting up shelves and ensuring everything is baby-friendly.” The Kensington Palace part should’ve been enough to tip the public off about the bogus nature of the report as Meghan and Harry are currently moving out of Kensington and relocating to Frogmore Cottage. But many appear to have been swayed by the Us piece. In fact, some folks are so convinced that they’re willing to put money on it. An Irish company with the hilarious name of Paddy Power had been accepting bets on the outcome of Meghan’s pregnancy, but they stopped due to the influx of wagers from gamblers who think she’s expecting twins. “An unprecedented amount of bets on Meghan and Harry to have twins has forced us to stop taking bets on the market altogether,” said a spokesperson for the company. “Since the day began, the stream of bets has led us to believe that perhaps the punters — or an insider source — knows something more than we do.” In the week since the twin rumors went public, several sites, including the eye-rollingly sanctimonious Gossip Cop have come forward to bravely refute the claim. The site claims that not only is Us lying about the twin thing, there’s also no truth behind reports that Kate Middleton is throwing a shower for Meghan and has “hired a caterer to make blue cupcakes,” thus indicating boys are on the way. We suppose that part makes sense, as Meghan and Kate are in the midst of a feud that’s making headlines globally. As for what exactly is going on in Meg’s uterus, we’re guessing only a select handful of people are privy to that information — and none of them work at Us Weekly or Gossip Cop.

Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle: Look! Here’s PROOF We Don’t Despise Each Other!

Posted on December 4, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Feud, schmeud. Rivalry, schmialry. Bad blood, schmad slood. We think you get the annoying point. But just to get a lot more specific and far less irritating: In the face of ongoing rumors that they totally hate each other and refuse to be in the same room together, Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle have changed their holiday plans. Instead of the former and Prince William spending Christman with the Middletons in Bucklebury, People Magazine has confirmed that they’ll join the rest of the Royal Family in Norfolk with the Queen at Sandringham.  This includes, of course, Markle and Prince Harry. Quick! Someone prepare the Royal Boxing Gloves! As you very likely have heard about by now, Middleton and Markle do not get along. Allegedly. According to one recent report, Markle actually made Kate cry this past spring when Middleton was expecting her third baby and her figure was therefore not in pristine condition… … and yet Markle pressured her and bullied her during a dress fitting for her wedding to Harry. Could this be why Markle and Harry are moving far away from Kensington Palace? Yes, many Internet users believe. Per People Magazine, William and Kate will stay at their nearby resident of Anmer Hall with kids Prince George, 5, Princess Charlotte, 3, and 7-month-old Prince Louis for the upcoming holiday. The specifics on where Harry and Meghan are staying haven’t been provided “at this stage,” an insider tells the publication . Needless to write, however, considering that Harry and Meghan only just got married in May, this will be the first Christmas the Princess and the Duchesses all spend together as husbands and wives. What could go wrong?!? Typically, William and Kate alternative between spending this time of year with his loved ones and with her loved ones. They had been scheduled to hit up the Middletons this year, with Kate’s mom, Carole, recently talking about preparing the house for her grandchildren in her first-ever interview. She said that she likes to have as many Christmas trees as possible in her house, including one for each of her grandchildren’s rooms “so that they can decorate it themselves.” How sweet. And now, sadly, how fruitless. We continue to write about the supposed tension between Markle and Middleton, but we do wish to reiterate that we cannot confirm its validity. However, it is worth noting that Kensington Palace took the VERY unusual step of commenting on a story in The Sun last week. After that British newspaper reported on an argument between Kate and Meghan shortly before the latter’s nuptials on May 19, Royal sources responded and said the claim simply doesn’t have merit. ” This never happened ,” the Palace has now said of the alleged fight. Sure. Whatever you say, Palace. What WILL happen now, though, is Meghan and Kate spending Christmas as a family and every single person on the planet studying their faces to see just how real or fake their smiles look.

George & Amal Clooney: Future Godparents to Meghan Markle’s Baby?!

Posted on December 3, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

As you’ve likely heard by now, Meghan Markle is pregnant with her first child. Meghan, of course, is in the unique position of having climbed the ladder from basic cable D-lister to international icon in record time, so the eyes of the world are squarely on her growing baby bump. Meghan has reached that level of fame at which people place bets on things like whether or not she’ll have twins and what the baby (or babies) will be named. One mystery that’s attracted a lot of attention in recent weeks is the question of who Meghan and Harry will choose as the baby’s godparents. Naturally, there’s been lots of speculation and a fair bit of wagering, with most concluding that the godparents will be celebrities. Meghan hob-nobs with the global elite these days, so it’s widely assumed that she and Harry will choose some sort of public figures as the godparents. And one couple has become the odds-on favorites to receive the honor. Sources close to Duke and Duchess of Sussex say that while they haven’t made the selection official yet, Harry and Meghan have decided to ask George and Amal Clooney to do the honors. “Amal and Meghan have been close for years, and Harry and George have become buddies because of that,” one insider tells the Daily Mail. “They’re much closer than the headlines let on.” While the offer hasn’t been extended yet, sources say George and Amal have heard the rumors and are looking forward to speaking with Harry and Meghan.  Apparently, George has even “told a couple of people he has a strong hunch.”  The Clooneys are parents of twins, and news that they’ll serve as godparents has bolstered rumors that Meghan is expecting twins as well. In fact, that’s now considered such a strong possibility that the Irish bookmakers who have hosted the majority of the wagering on Meghan’s pregnancy have stopped accepting bets that she’ll have twins. “An unprecedented amount of bets on Meghan and Harry to have twins has forced us to stop taking bets on the market altogether,” a spokesperson for Paddy Power told Us Weekly in a statement. “Since the day began, the stream of bets has led us to believe that perhaps the punters — or an insider source — knows something more than we do.” So if you can find a bookie who will let you bet that Meghan will have twins and the Clooneys will be the godparents, jump on that! Why should Meghan and Harry be the only ones expecting joyous news? View Slideshow: Meghan Markle vs. Kate Middleton Feud: Tearing William and Harry Apart?!

Kensington Palace Actually Addresses Alleged Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle Feud

Posted on December 2, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

For the record, we do not know if the rumored rivalry between Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle is real. But we do now know this: The Royal Family thinks the potential repercussions from this supposed beef is real enough that it has issued a rare public comment. Amid mounting celebrity gossip reports of tense/awkward moments between brothers the famous Duchesses, Kensington Palace has gone on record with a rebuttal. It felt a need to do so after The Sun quoted a source who claimed that Kate and Meghan had an “explosive row” (British speak for “argument”) prior to Markle exchanging vows with PRrince Harry in May. According to the newspaper, Middleton told Markle not to berate members of her team, saying: “That’s unacceptable, they’re my staff and I speak to them.” However, “this never happened,” The Sun writes, per a Kensington Palace spokesman, who adds: “It’s a tricky situation but it was a one-off and they are determined to maintain a positive relationship even though they are obviously very different in their approach.” There’s no name attached to this Kensington Palace spokesman, it should be noted. But if we are to believe that the Royal Family really did respond to the article about this fight, that’s a pretty huge step. Through the years, there has been endless chatter and gossip about disagreements… or affairs… or many other types of scandals between members of this very well-known clan. Yet you almost never see these reports actually acknowledged. Of late, though, the chatter has grown nearly incessant. It hasn’t helped that Markle and Harry are moving far away from Middleton and Prince William in order to raise their child. It also hasn’t helped that anonymous insider keep claiming Markle has made staffers quit . Heck, Radar Online only just penned an article that alleged Meghan’s personal assistant, Melissa Toubati, didn’t just resign after six months… … but she was reduced to tears by the Duchess of Sussex! “Her job was highly ­pressurized and in the end it became too much. She put up with quite a lot. Meghan put a lot of demands on her and it ended up with her in tears,” this website reports. In general, many folks are now coming out and saying that Markle can be quite the diva. They are also saying that Middleton is annoyed that Markle has stolen some of her spotlight. Kate and Meghan have rarely been seen together in public since the May wedding. Last week, The Sun claimed that Middleton herself broke down during a dress fitting for this wedding due to the pressure placed on her by Markle. Royal aides have neither denied nor confirmed the incident. Markle, of course, is expecting her first baby in the spring. She is due in early May. Asked during a public outing about the impending little boy or girl, Middleton did at least sound pretty excited . “It’s such a special time to have little kiddies,” she said. “And a cousin for George and Charlotte, as well, and Louis. It’ll be really special.” Click down below for more on this alleged rivalry: View Slideshow: Meghan Markle vs. Kate Middleton Feud: Tearing William and Harry Apart?!

Meghan Markle: Is She Pissing Off the Brits By Celebrating Thanksgiving?

Posted on November 21, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

About 400 years ago, a group of pasty Brits boarded a rickety vessel and set sail for the New World with the goal of establishing a colony where everyone wouldn’t just simultaneously drop dead the instant the temperature dropped below 40. Unlike more recent immigrant caravans, of course, the Pilgrims earned a permanent place in the collective memory of Americans. We probably don’t need to tell you the rest of the story: The Pilgrims had a nosh with the Wampanoags and now, Americans get a four-day weekend, at least a quarter of which is to be spent stepping on the necks of octogenarians in hope of grabbing a slightly marked-down physical copy of Red Dead Redemption II so that the nephew you don’t even like will have something to open on Christmas morning. To call the tradition beautiful would be like saying the Grand Canyon is a pretty big hole, or Brett Kavanaugh enjoys the occasional brewski. More than Mount Rushmore, CTE, and civilian-owned military-grade assault weapons combined, Thanksgiving weekend is America. So it’s nice to see Meghan Markle reppin’ the Stars and Stripes and proudly flippin’ the bald eagle to her in-laws by celebrating Turkey Day right in the heart of King George country. Now, to be fair, Meg probably won’t be posting up in a recliner and gnawing on a drumstick while the Bears take on the Lions. While that sort of behavior is customary on this side of the pond, Meghan is a duchess now, and finishing off a twelver of Natty Ice during the late game would probably be considered a ” breach of royal protocol ” or something. And so, she marked the occasion in more suitable fashion by stopping by West London’s Hubb Community Kitchen to applaud the workers for their efforts and whip up a batch of her signature stuffing (which the Brits call “chuzzlewit” … we assume). Furthering her reputation as the least-lameass member of the royal family, Pregnant Meg genuinely seemed to enjoy her visit to the soup kitchen and didn’t once raise a kerchief to her mouth in response to any odors that may have been emanating from the poors. Of course, this isn’t Meghan’s first Thanksgiving in the UK, but it is her first with a royal title.  As such, there was some scuttlebutt regarding whether she would mark the occasion at all, and whether the famously vitriolic British tabloid press would give her any flak if she did. So far, no shade has been thrown, but you can bet Meghan’s evil half-sister Samantha can’t wait to talk her signature brand of semi-literate trash. Man, America really got stuck with the dud Markle, didn’t we? Hey, Brits, how about we tear up this pesky Declaration of Independence, and you guys give us Meghan back in exchange for Sam? Deal? It’s probably best if you recolonize us anyway. We’re not doing so great with this “democracy” business. View Slideshow: Meghan Markle Baby Bump Watch: Is She Showing Yet?
