Olivia Wilde ….naming herself WILDE after Oscar Wilde, because she’s pretentious like that…get a fucking grip….that’s ridiculous. She said it was a tribute to writers in her family, which is a load of shit, it’s because her name is COCKBURN… I can’t help but call her Olivia Cockburn, her actual birth name, which is probably the worst last name anyone can have, especially a hot chick with a dream of being famous…because it makes me laugh every time…. I definitely understand why she gave herself a stripper name, or what she calls a Nom de Plume, because anyone who’s stripper name is inspired by Oscar Wilde is obnoxious like that…. When named Cockburn, you are given no choice but to venture out there and name your damn self…plus growing up a COCKBURN must have been a traumatic experience…some Dr Ford level sexual assault every time she got introduced, or during roll call or wahtever…humilating… But then she realized she was rich, connected, her family socialites in Washington DC, and hot enough to make it as an actor…which I guess is what she did… So now all these years later, she can walk around, with her hard nipples for the paparazzi…with confidence that she’s managed to rebrand herself…and no one even bothers remember her as the COCK BURN she once was….

By now, you've surely heard the big Teen Mom OG news, right? And no, we're not talking about the additions of Cheyenne Floyd and Bristol Palin to the cast. We're talking, of course, about Catelynn Lowell's pregnancy! Yep, after having a miscarriage last year that was so traumatizing it caused her to contemplate suicide, Catelynn is pregnant with what she's been calling her “rainbow baby.” She and husband Tyler Baltierra seem very, very excited about adding another member to their family, and it's been pretty cute to see. So far, we know that the baby is due on March 6th , and although there's been no official gender reveals, reports claim that they're having another girl. And thanks to this adorable new Teen Mom OG sneak peek, we know that their daughter Nova is pumped about being a big sister! The clip starts off with Catelynn and Nova making cupcakes while Tyler sits at the table nearby. Cate tells Nova that some of their cupcakes are going to be pink and others are going to be blue, then asks her if she knows why they're making them that way. Nova honestly just seems psyched about cupcakes in general, so Catelynn asks her if she knows why they're having a party the next day. “Mommy has a baby in her belly,” she explains to her, “and tomorrow the party is because we're going to find out if it's a little girl or a little boy.” “Yeah!” Nova responds, soaking up the news. Cate asks her if she'd rather have a little brother or sister, and Nova doesn't hesitate to say she'd prefer a sister. Tyler, who's always been open about how much he wants a son, makes a face, then asks her “What if it's a boy?” Catelynn asks her if she'd be happy with a little brother too, and she says she would, because she's precious and perfect. They start talking to Nova about babies, and they tell her babies cry a lot. “Yeah, then you just say 'shh,'” Nova says, again, because she is too cute for this world. She then says that she's going to rock the baby and feed it bottles and be a big sister. “He's so cute!” she exclaims. “I love him!” The whole thing is really just painfully adorable, it really is. It's also nice to see a lighthearted moment with the family, after how heavy things got for them last season. Some people think that Catelynn and Tyler rushed into having another baby , that they should have waited longer after her trips to rehab. But one thing is for sure, and that is that Nova is going to be the best big sister. Check out the sweet moment in the video below:
Well, folks, it’s been about 24 hours since Bill Cosby was sentenced to prison and taken into custody. It’s a positive development for just about everyone in the world, with the exceptions of Cosby himself and maybe a handful of wacky sweater enthusiasts. Considering he appears to have raped scores of women over the course of several decades, Cosby’s 3-10 year sentence is appallingly light, but on the plus side, he’s 81, so there’s a good chance he’s tasted the sweet pudding pop of freedom for the last time. Anyway, millions are rightly celebrating Cosby’s incarceration today, and we salute his victims for their bravery in coming forward and their persistence in seeing that this monster was brought to justice. Another group that’s rightly jazzed (Get it? Because he likes jazz?) about the Cos being locked away are his fellow inmates. Despite what Orange Is the New Black might have led you to believe, minimum security prisons are actually rather boring places where amusingly topical monologues are few and far between. So the arrival of a celebrity inmate — particularly one as famous as Bill Cosby — is highly anticipated occasion. “Prisoners are excited that Cosby is there,” a source close to the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections tells Radar Online. “Even the toughest cellblocks showed respect for him.” And it seems they’ve even done the disgraced comic the honor of granting him a prison nickname. “They’re calling him the ‘OG’ — lingo for ‘original gangster,’” the insider claims. We’re hoping that nickname is delivered with a healthy dose of irony, as Cosby spent the past 50 years chiding black men for the way they dress by day and drugging and raping women by night. There’s nothing remotely gangster about either of those activities. Earlier today, we reported that Cosby is trying to beg his way out of prison by claiming that he’s in danger due to his celebrity status. Fortunately, prison authorities anticipated that argument, and they essentially shot it down with a statement issued moments ago: “We are taking all of the necessary precautions to ensure Mr. Cosby’s safety and general welfare in our institution,” Corrections Secretary John Wetzel said. “The long-term goal is for him to be placed in the general population to receive the programming required during his incarceration.” Sounds like you may want to get comfortable, Mr. Cosby. You’re gonna be in there longer than Theo got grounded when he took the car without permission. Zab-zippity! View Slideshow: Bill Cosby Sex Scandal: What Led to His Arrest

But… amazing surprise! They announced Catelynn's pregnancy two weeks and have been flying high ever since.

While Ford survived, as she was wearing her seatbelt, she fractured her skull and has spent the last few months trying to recuperate. Over the weekend, the model, actress, and former video vixen gave fans an update on how she’s been doing . “I’m battling Depression,” she started out. “Crushing, malignant Depression. It was always there; it’s just been made a little worse because of the head trauma from the crash.” She also explained that she feels guilty because although she survived, she’s not always grateful. “There are days where simple tasks takes the effort of 40 men,” she said in the Instagram caption. “Mornings where I’m unhappy to wake and see the sun because it’s another day spent listlessly looking for solid meaning in life. The guilt I feel at having survived and not feeling constant gratitude is a heavy weight to bear. I’m trying to jump back into my life but it feels like there are two Me’s: Before and After the crash. And I barely know who Before Me is anymore.” She ended her note by urging her followers to check in on their “strongest friend” because “no one ever does.” Our hearts go out to Ford and we are keeping her health and peace of mind in our prayers.

Kristen Bell currently stars on The Good Place. And it may be the best show on network television. But the beloved actress is about to head back to a wonderful place, a place where she truly became a popular household name. That place is the city of Neptune, California. Following a few weeks of rumors that seemed too amazing to be true, Hulu has now confirmed that Veronica Mars really is returning to the air. The former UPN/The CW drama will air eight brand new episodes on this streaming service in 2019. Series creator Rob Thomas will write the first episode of the revival and serve as an executive producer; while Bell, of course, will reprise her title role in the series. At this point, we need to stop with the official background information and quickly add: EEEEK! YES! WE CAN’T BELIEVE THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING!!!!!! Veronica Mars ran for three seasons and was canceled way back in 2007. The series starred Bell as a high school student who suffered a major personal trauma and then worked alongside her father (or often in defiance of her father) as a private investigator, uncovering various crimes and secrets in her posh home town. The show had such a rabid fan base that a Veronica Mars movie was released in 2014. Along with this incredible revival news, we can confirm the following: – All past episodes of the original Veronica Mars will also be headed to Hulu. Fans can stream seasons 1-3 (as well as the 2014 fan-funded feature film) starting in summer 2019. – A synopsis for the return in general has been released! This is the Hulu logline for the right installments on tap: Spring breakers are getting murdered in Neptune, thereby decimating the seaside town’s lifeblood tourist industry. After Mars Investigations is hired by the parents of one of the victims to find their son’s killer, Veronica is drawn into an epic eight-episode mystery that pits the enclave’s wealthy elites, who would rather put an end to the month-long bacchanalia, against a working class that relies on the cash influx that comes with being the West Coast’s answer to Daytona Beach. It’s unclear right now who else from the original cast will be returning. But Bell is pretty stoked about everything, writing today on Instagram in response to the news: Attention all Marshmallows: BREAKING NEWS!!!!! We are OFFICIALLY back in business!!! A new #veronicamars series is coming back, on @hulu !!!! Veronica has always been a super hero without a Cape. And I think shes exactly what the world needs right now. Thank you to all my fellow marshmallows who stayed excited. Thank you to @hulu for the opportunity. I hope we’re still friends after I taser I you. Revivals and returns are all the TV rage these days, of course. CBS is somehow bringing back both Murphy Brown and Magnum P.I. this fall, while Roseanne was a giant hit for ABC last television season and Last Man Standing will return to the smalll screen later ths year. But whatever. Who cares about those? Veronica Mars will soon air new episodes! Who else is excited?!?
Source: Charley Gallay / Getty This week’s episode of Insecure probably left anyone in the dating scene traumatized and triggered (spoilers below). Surprisingly, it most likely wasn’t because of the return of Lawrence ( Jay Ellis ). In episode five, Issa Rae ‘s character ran into him at the store on her Coachella trip and in episode six, they see each other again at Tiffany’s ( Amanda Seales ) baby shower. Their conversation seemed to go smoothly and Issa made it clear by the end of the episode that she was ready to move on. Only problem is, her new potential bae went missing in action! That’s right. Earlier in the episode, her new starry-eyed boo thang, Nathan (played by Kendrick Sampson), was making it seem like he had feelings for Issa when they were snuggled up in her bed. But when Issa texted him about a Lyft investigation pertaining to the night they met, Nathan didn’t respond for a day in a half. So in millennial dating years that’s like…a week! There could only be two explanations for this. Either Nathan’s on the run from the law… Or he completely ghosted Issa. For anyone who’s been left stranded and alone by a potential bae, I’d imagine you had some traumatic flashbacks when watching episode six. To help you get through this moment, we’ve decided to list the seven stages of being ghosted in hopes that you can heal, be mad, then get right back in the dating game. Hit the next pages to find out what words people utter during these emotional stages!
Source: Starz / Starz It’s the Power season five finale and tonight’s episode is definitely one for the WTF Books! We pick back up with Angela, her lawyer, and the feds. As we know the feds are hemming Angie up on RICO charges because they think she colluded with James on a variety of crimes. Angie’s lawyer is trying to get immunity but the feds turn that down. The best they can do is disbarment and witness protection. She wants 24 hours to think things through and in that time she’s trying to figure out how to get out of this, of course. via GIPHY Terry Silver pops up again and tries to get a second chance with Tasha. He apologizes for accusing her of lying about Ghost and explains that Ghost threatened to expose their relationship. Tasha eventually decides to keep him close because guess what? He’s actually working with the feds. Basically, he’s trying to protect Tasha and wants to get her to flip on James. Tasha ain’t no fool and while she probably won’t flip on James, she still needs Silver in her corner so she does what she can to keep him in pocket. Tasha, Ghost, Tommy, and Angela all meet up at the latter three’s former high school and Angie breaks down the RICO charges. They all check her for a wire first because you know how feds try to get everyone to flip. Plus, no one trusts each other at this point. They move forward after discovering that she is wire free and explains that the feds are trying to pin Mike Sandoval’s murder among other things on them. The only kinda sorta good news is that if the feds would have all arrested them a long time ago if they had any proof. Moving forward, their plan as a group is to respectively scare anyone in their lives who the feds would try to get to flip. Angela also mentions that she has a plan. Next, we find Dre at home getting it on with his babymama while his daughter is asleep in the next room. They almost get assassinated by Jimenez goons, but Dre and his baby mama don’t play those games. They are freakishly stealthy and manage to take out the assassins first! via GIPHY Relax, the baby is okay. So, baby Dre and her mom go to grandma’s house while Dre heads straight to Angela because he needs that immunity deal and some protection. Angela says she will help him if he implicates Alicia Jimenez in a couple of murders. We all know which murders those are. via GIPHY Later on, Dre makes the silly decision to explain what’s going on with him to one of his goons — the one who was a double agent for Kanan. He also says that he’s not going to say what Angela wants. Instead, plans to turn over Tommy and Ghost. The fact that he’s going to snitch obviously doesn’t sit right so that same double crossing goon tells Tommy what Dre plans to do and then reveals that Kanan stopped Dre executing the hit that Ghost ordered on Jason, which obviously makes Tommy not trust Ghost even more because he didn’t know about plans for killing Jason (who is his connect) in the first place. The goon also mentions that he wants do business with Tommy because he got people and no drugs while Tommy got drugs and no people to move the weight. Plus, Dre is now a common enemy so Tommy is down with making a new plan to clip Dre. Hold that thought. Terry heads to Tasha’s house again and urges her to file for divorce now because indictments are coming down in a few days. If she initiates the divorce now , the feds will offer her immunity to testify against him. Tasha plays dumb, of course. This is a long line of people being encouraged to flip. Saxe tries to get Keisha to get Tommy to flip on Ghost (Keisha plays dumb though). They want Ghost to flip on Tommy. The feds press Councilman Tate too! It’s like when Oprah gave out cars, but with potential immunity deals instead. via GIPHY Proctor tries to get James to flip on Angela. He also mentions to James that Saxe was spotted talking to Terry Silver. Silver can link all of them to Sandoval through Angie. James refuses to burn Angela, and if you think about it, that’s the least he can do for her. Then Proctor tries to get James to tell the feds that Teresi told Tommy that Sandoval was in jail and that Tommy was the one who told Teresi to mirk Sandoval. That version of events leaves Ghost, Proctor and Angela, and makes Silver look like a liar. James isn’t sure he can trust Proctor either and he dang sure doesn’t want to give up Tommy. Proctor once again tries to convince him to let Angela go and it’s just not happening. via GIPHY Maria Suarez, the woman who was blindfolded next to her boyfriend that time James killed him, resurfaces. She’s still traumatized by Ghost’s voice and wanted to pursue testifying but the feds couldn’t use her because voice recognition isn’t enough. Anyway, she’s at a groundbreaking ceremony for the Queens Child Project, where Councilman Tate announces his gubernatorial run and then James gives a speech. James/Ghost’s voice obviously it freaks her out again and leads to another PTSD meltdown. Hold that thought. Speaking of freak outs, James confronts Tasha about not telling him that Terry was back in town and that he’s working with the feds. He demands that stay away from him and of course, Tasha says she will. But we all know… via GIPHY Now we’re with Tommy and Keisha. Keisha does not rock with Tasha anymore for asking her to lie to the feds again, but when Tommy asks her to do it she’s all with it. via GIPHY That’s great for her because Tommy almost slaughtered her. He was literally holding on to a gun (out of her eyeshot), ready to shoot if she didn’t agree to ride with them. Anyway, Keisha doesn’t think flipping on Ghost is a bad idea since Ghost is so selfish and the feds believe Ghost killed Teresi anyway. Later on, Saxe shows up so Tommy tells Keisha to hide. Basically, Saxe tries to get him to flip again on Angela and Ghost before they flip on him and reiterates the story about Ghost killing Teresi. Tommy plays hardball but Saxe plays a recording of Teresi trying to snitch on Ghost instead of Tommy. Tommy falls apart after Saxe leaves and Keisha comforts him. She also figures out the obvious, which is that he killed his father. Tommy confirms her suspicions and reveals that he’s broken because he didn’t believe his dad. Keisha adds that this is another reason they need to get away from Ghost and Tasha. Then Tommy gets that crazy look in his eyes, you know the look, and dashes out. via GIPHY Terry finds Tasha again. He follows her to a parking lot (remember that detail) and we know what he’s trying to do. This time she reveals she knows he’s trying to get her to turn. Silver says working with the feds is the only way he’ll have the credibility enough to save her and that she really should save herself and flip on Ghost because she owes him nothing. Very true, but we all know that Tasha isn’t going to send the father of her children to jail. She asks Terry to find someone else to burn. Proctor, perhaps? Hold that thought though. Tommy works with Angela to set up the Dre ambush. We all know that Dre knows how to get out of these situations alive. So what happens is, Dre goes to a remote location thinking he’s going to meet with Angela and then the shooters pop out. A shootout ensues, and Dre manages to dive out of a window after getting shot in the leg (Tommy had to make it seem like he was actually trying to shoot Dre in front of Dre’s double agent goon buddy), and ends up snatched into an armored truck by Angela’s boy toy. Remember the mysterious US Marshall that shut down the first Jimenez arrest attempt? Him! So, he forces Dre to sign Angela’s agreement, which could potentially make all of this go away. Now we’re at an office hearing where Saxe and Mak find out that the Marshalls have Dre as the witness. Angela’s lawyer and Silver’s lawyers are there, but for some reason, Silver isn’t there. He was supposed to show up. It’s not like him to not show up to things like this. via GIPHY He’ll also still need to appear in court. But anyway, Mak is tired of the goose chase and decides to pack up and leave because he got the job in DC that Angie recommended him for. Saxe tries to convince him to stay. And plans to keep this going balls to the wall, but Mak is out. Everyone’s suspicions are on high so we don’t know what to expect when Tasha shows up to Angela’s apartment. Things take a turn when Angela tells her that convincing Terry not to show up to court was a good plan but then Tasha mentions that Terry showing up was part of the plan and that she thinks that Angie and Ghost kept Terry from appearing because Angela was the only one who knew that Silver was back and therefore she gave Ghost that information. We know how Angie does with the loose lips. Anyway, then Tommy comes in with the burner and asks if she told Ghost about Teresi snitching. Angie is getting nervous because she knows what’s up, but she admits that she did. However, she told Ghost to tell him but we all know that Ghost went straight to Vinny (the Italian boss). Tommy mentions his convo with Saxe. Angie starts copping pleas, because she’s not trying to die, and tells them she can prove she’s not colluding against them. Basically, if they get the photos she took of Teresi’s “secret” meetings with the feds then they’ll see Saxe’s desk in them. The photos would trace back to her, then Tommy because Saxe wouldn’t have any reason to believe that James would go to the Italians with that info. Tasha tells Tommy to stand down and Angie keeps her life. Angie, who is a smart cookie, then mentions that didn’t have Ghost kill Silver and if he did that, then that would have been on his own time. Tasha believes that killing Silver is a very Ghost thing to do. They all do. Tommy visits Vinny and finds out that Ghost did actually give him the photos. Tommy realizes that Ghost played him again. First, Tommy thinks Ghost gave Vinny the pics so he would kill Teresi but Vinny drops the truth bomb. Ghost wanted Tommy to do it. Now Tommy is standing there looking like… via GIPHY Tommy then says one of the truest things we’ve ever heard on this show, “We’re both monsters.” Vinny replies,, “At least it’s over.” But it’s not over yet as per Tommy, who says he has one more thing to do. It’s also not over yet for Angela either because her lawyer informs her that Maria Suarez is back in the ring as a witness. Then Ange’s lawyer confirms that she was right about Terry Silver. He’s missing. via GIPHY Meanwhile, Proctor has more tea for Ghost. He tells him that they have a witness against him and “ She is willing to testify.” Proctor emphasizes that it’s a woman, thinking it’s Angela but it’s actually Suarez. Basically, Proctor is preaching from the Book of Save Yourself again! Finally, Ghost and Angie meet up again at their old high school to talk. He asks her if she’s the witness and she denies it. Angie then asks if he killed Terry Silver and Ghost gets this weird look on his face and we can all assume he’s guilty. Angela is disgusted and says they’re done but then Ghost says he didn’t kill Terry. Angie says she wants to believe him and they get all tender and lovey-dovey. via GIPHY But, we cut back to when Terry and Tasha were in the parking lot. Ghost followed Terry after that conversation and…yeah. He lied. He dropped Terry Silver like a bad habit. Narcissistic psychopath much? In Ghost’s mind, he had to lie to keep Angie and because we all know that Ghost killing Silver was really more out of jealousy than it was survival. However, he can’t tell Angie that because then it means admitting that part of him still loves Tasha. via GIPHY Their tender moment gets interrupted when Angela catches Tommy pointing a gun at Ghost. She moves him out of the way and gets shot in the chest. via GIPHY Ghost lets out an animalistic, anguished scream and Angela slumps into Ghost’s arms gasping for air before things go black. So, is she dead or isn’t she? What does this mean for Tommy and Ghost’s new unrepairable relationship? So sad. Terry definitely shouldn’t have died. The other twisted thing is, while Angela definitely wasn’t innocent or even likable at times, her biggest mistake was messing with Ghost. She has been protecting everyone, including Tommy, the entire time. All this was to cover her own arse, of course, but still… We’ll have to wait a year before we find out what’s next. Wompington.

Ariana Grande has broken her silence in response to her former boyfriend Mac Miller’s shocking death Friday at the age of 26. One day after Miller was found dead inside his home of a suspected overdose, the singer has acknowledged her ex’s passing. Grande and Miller dated for about two years, breaking up in May, just a couple of months before Miller would pass away. According to sources at the time, the rapper’s substance abuse problem was a sigificant reason that Grande was forced to finally end the romance, which had become highly toxic and unhealthy for her. Because lots of people on the Internet are awful, some trolls attacked Grande on Instagram Friday evening because they: Actually blamed Ariana for Miller’s overdose . Wondered why she had not yet commented on his passing. Like we said, lots of people on the Internet are awful. On Saturday afternoon, however, Grande did share the above photo of Miller on her official social media page. She did not include a caption along with it. Within an hour of going live, though, the black, white and simple but profound tribute has garnered over 3.6 million Likes. That says more than any words could. About a week after Miller and Grande split, the former was arrested for drunk driving after he got into a very serious car accident. Grande responded by telling Mac to “Pls take care of yourself,” and she then clapped back hard at anyone who blamed her then as well for Miller’s personal issues. “I am not a babysitter or a mother and no woman should feel that they need to be,” she tweeted this spring, adding: “I have cared for him and tried to support his sobriety & prayed for his balance for years.” “Of course I didn’t share about how hard or scary it was while it was happening but it was.” Miller was also in Manchester last year when a terrorist killed 22 people at one of Grande’s concerts . These two had been through a lot prior to Mac’s death. The day Grande and Miller broke up , Ariana wrote the following on Instagram: Hi! This is one of my best friends in the whole world and favorite people on the planet malcolm mccormick. I respect and adore him endlessly and am grateful to have him in my life in any form, at all times regardless of how our relationship changes or what the universe holds for each of us! Ariana continued: Unconditional love is not selfish. It is wanting the best for that person even if at the moment, it’s not you. I can’t wait to know and support you forever and i’m so proud of you!! Elsewhere, another of Miller’s ex-girlfriends, Nomi Leasure, has spoken out on his death… and his life. “So grateful we had our final moment. Our clarity, clearing of the air. You changed my life. I, yours. The residual effects of your passion ripple on. You are not gone. Not in the least.” View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2018: In Memoriam Leasure and Miller started dating in high school and broke up not long before he moved on wth Grande. If you or someone you know is struggling with substance abuse, contact the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) National Helpline at 1-800-662-HELP. May Mac Miller rest in peace.
Mac Miller’s mother has shared a beautiful tribute to her late son. Days after the rapper was shockingly found dead at the age of 26 , due to a suspected drug overdose, Karen Meyers has shared a very simple, albeit very telling and special, picture of her child. You can see it here: In the picture uploaded to Instagram, Meyers and her son (whose real name was Malcolm McCormick) are smiling together at a Pittsburgh Pirates baseball game. It’s unclear when the snapshot was taken. But it’s evident why this one was used by Karen to pay tribute to the late rapper. As you can see, Miller is leaning his head against his mom’s and making a funny face; she captioned the photo with a broken heart emoji. And she did so not long after Ariana Grande posted a similar tribute to her long-time boyfriend, a couple months after the stars split and about 48 hours after Miller was found dead. This is the photo Grande shared on social media: She did not pen a caption with it. Miller battled substance abuse issues for years prior to his passing. He was frequently open his addiction, just as Grande was open about the fact that Miller’s problems played a significant role in a relationship that eventually became too “toxic” for her to remain a part of. In the wake of Miller’s overdose, a handful of terrible Internet users dared to blame Grande for Miller’s fatal actions . They also wondered why Ariana did not immediately wrote anything online in response to the tragedy. As if it’s any of their business and as if we should ever judge anyone about how they mourn a loved one. On Friday evening, Miller’s family released a statement about the 26-year old’s death. It reads: “Malcolm McCormick, known and adored by fans as Mac Miller, has tragically passed away at the age of 26. He was a bright light in this world for his family, friends and fans. Thank you for your prayers. “Please respect our privacy. There are no further details as to the cause of his death at this time.” An endless array of musicians have since shared their own thoughts about Miller’s passing, but we’re going to note John Mayer’s message below. The artist only just posted it to Instagram late Saturday night and it stands out for its lengthy and personal nature. This is what Mayer wrote about Miller: This was going to be Mac Miller’s year. He made a quantum leap in his music. That’s incredibly hard to do, to evolve and get better and more focused while your career is already underway. You don’t get there without a lot of work, and Mac had put the work in. I didn’t expect to play on his album the day he played some songs for me at his house, but when I heard “Small Worlds,” I gave it a short, chirpy little “yup,” which is the highest praise I can give a track. It means we don’t need to say another word, it’s going down. I grabbed the nearest guitar in the room and within a couple of hours we had finished a tune that made me so incredibly happy to have a part in, not to mention we established a nice little friendship. He was so funny I just kind of stopped typing “LOL” back in our texts. Mac was, to me, on permanent LOL status. I gave him whatever guidance I thought I had the right to, having been through the press ringer in the past and wanting him to understand that none of that noise could ever really take a bite out of the music he was about to put out. The last time I saw him, he was playing Hotel Cafe’ in Los Angeles for a crowd of 100 people. He was nervous, and honest about it with the audience. I thought that was so endearing, especially seeing as he would go on to play one of the best sets I’d seen in a very long time. His band was unreal. You gotta know that if you weren’t familiar with Mac Miller, you were about to be, whether you would have seen him at a festival, or a friend was going to catch a show and tell everyone they knew about it (like I did.) Mac put in the work. He made his best album and formed the band that was weeks away from becoming a breakout live sensation. Believe me when I say that. I send my love and support to everyone who knew him better, because what relative little I did, I just adored. May Mac Miller rest in peace. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2018: In Memoriam
