    I think this is from the reporting that resulted in the book She Said, which came out yesterday. I think it says Paltrow was one of the first to call in and report Weinstein ONCE the #metoo movement started. Or that's the claim.

    Interesting.  The authors of the book were on MSNBC yesterday, Weinstein is a scary scary guy - he came to their offices on ten minutes notice and with a team of attorneys.

    Yikes.

    As far as Gwennie goes, I still find it questionable and the timing suspect.

     

    (I am not inclined to cut her any slack - for some illogical reason I can't stand her -- maybe its the uppity attitude she puts off :huh: )

    This article says she has been plotting but hasn't said how.  Has she made any accusations.

    I don't seem to recall that Paltrow has aligned herself in anyway with the #MeToo movement.

    Also her dad was a big time producer, I can't imagine that either he or her mother wouldn't have picked up on anything that was going on - if anything.

    I think Weinstein is a monumental POS - but I doubt seriously that Gwennie had anything to do with his downfall.

    Heather Locklear Pleads No Contest to 8 Misdemeanor Offenses, Ordered to Treatment Facility: Report

     

    Heather Locklear was arrested twice last year

    You know that old saying, "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink."

    I feel the same way about court ordered rehab -- its more likely than not doomed to failure if the person isn't ready for the help.  Yes, it will get you out of the ticket or whatever, but that's about all.

    The docs, first posted by the New York Post, say his executors are Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn ... each of whom will get $250k for carrying out Epstein's final wishes.

    Pretty small fee considering the size of the estate -- here in California, executors get a percentage based on the size of the estate.

    I am betting everything is held by a receiver until the lawsuits against his estate play out.

    Reader Blind: So I’ve got a few friends who are well placed professionally by virtue of our career choices and during a lunch outing whilst visiting my in laws in London it transpired that the nobility is abuzz with a rumour that our favourite naughty royal may have known the former alliterate actress and had a go himself prior to marriage.

     

    Clearly meant to be Prince Andrew and Meghan Markle :blink:

    I call bullshit and wish they would lay off the BIs - at this point they are just downright mean.

     

    If this were true, I can't imagine that it wouldn't come out prior to the marriage and the Queen giving her permission.

    Well, I think Kelly aged just fine - but not for Hollywood and sure as hell not for Tom Cruise. She's not skinny with long blond hair so you knew she was never going to make it into another film.....HOnestly, considering some of the interviews I've read for her, it's probably best for her mental health this way.....

    Exactly re aging for Hollywood.  I liked her as an actress -- she was really good in Witness with Harrison Ford.

    ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER 07/30 **#2**
    This former A- list mostly movie actress who had quite the run back in the day before coming out (which caused a huge run of people being quiet about their sexuality) was passed over for a chance at a big sequel because the lead actor wanted to be seen opposite someone young. Plus, they hated filming with each other during the original, so that was never going to happen.

    Not to be unkind -- but Kelly did not age well.

    Yeah, I remember reading that the sex scene was shot months later, because test audiences didn't think they had any chemistry! And it was shot in shadows because she'd changed her hair for a role and was wearing a wig (that, apparently, was not very good ;-)

    there was also a scene where she is an elevator where she is wearing a hat.

    from this week's popbitch:

     

    It was curious seeing Dan Wootton give Meghan Markle both barrels this week. You'd think he'd be a little more friendly, given that he's such good pals with Wills and Kate's press secretary...

    If I were into conspiracy theories, I would wonder where these BIs are coming from and why?

     

    eh, Katie?

    Just saw that Adrianne Palicki and Scott Grimes are divorcing after just 2 months. I didn't even know they were dating, much less married - and I watch Orville. (where I assume they met)

    (on a related note, that show was renewed - but then they just announced it'll be streaming only, so I guess I won't be watching. Grrrrrrrrrrr!)

    Completely off topic, but I remember a time when TV stars did not have the same cache as movie stars. 

    I wonder what cache (if any) streaming stars have?  :huh:

    I was surprised no one was talking about age being an issue with Halle Berry being cast.  I mean, isn't Little Mermaid suppose to be a teenager?  Then I thought well maybe this isn't a remake but what happens after she and the prince get divorced.  :D  Only figured out I had the wrong actress when I finally saw a photo of Halle Bailey with the headline.  This is what happens when I only read the headline and skip over stories that don't interest me much ;)

    I don't know this Halle Berry from Adam, but from what I can see, the hoopla over her casting seems to be over the fact that she is black while cartoon Ariel is white.

    I think its a ridiculous argument --  We are talking make believe -- the character could be polka dot for all it matters.

    Having said that, it is interesting and I wonder if the that people are objecting to this are the same people who object to a white actor cast to play ethnic.

    She was up above so I think branchop included her (I read the post to include Doris Day & Tim Conway as the #1 and #2...)

    my bad.  I only saw the Time Conway one.

    Speaking of Tim, the youtube outtakes of the Carol Burnett show are hysterical.  What a funny funny man.

  14. Does anybody but me find it hysterical that people are all bent because people who knew of the cheating are not mad at the cheating but mad because it leaked in violation of "family rules?"  Nice set of priorities that got going on.

    I know that I said Kate had gotten matronly, but "starchy?"  Even I have a hard time with that one.  

    Another thought on the cheating:  Like father like son? Seems to be a royal characteristic.

    If I were baldy and starchy, what would I do?  Move on.

    The latest word is that Lori is pleading not guilty. If she gets away with what she is guilty of, she is done where Hollywood is concerned. She won't even be able to get work in the commercial doing field.

    God bless you and her kids always!!!

    Holly

    She won't get work now -- and an indictment does not mean guilt.  That's why people are allowed to plead non-guilty  (remember our country operates on a presumption of innocence) and go trial and be judged by people who have actually seen the evidence.  There are plenty of cases where people were indicted and found not guilty.

    FYI -- this is very early in the game and there is a lot of this story that has yet to be played out.  Do I think she is guilty based on what I have seen?  Yes, but then on the other hand, I have not seen her defense.

    Also, as a matter of indicting people on conspiracy, etc. those kids should be indicted.  They knew and participated and are just as guilty of fraud.

    What I would like to know is where the daughter of that Felicity lady stands on the matter. One of Lori's kids wants nothing more to do with her parents and the other is standing with them which I guess I can understand. Lori and her husband have most definitely shown how far they are willing to go for their kids and so their oldest has decided to show the appreciation for it.

    God bless you and the kids always!!!

    Holly

    I find the "outrage" of Lori's daughter(s) to be hypocritical if not down right comical -- These kids knew what was going on - they knew whether or not they had the credentials and/or GPA to get into a Ivy League school. 

    If you are going to bless the kids, bless the parents as well -- They are going to need it.

    Well, he ran a consulting service to get kids into college. THEY found him - it's a HUGE and lucrative market ? I'm sure there were parents he helped legally along the way. But for certain parents, additional $$$ services were offered.....

    Wow, I must be sheltered.  It never would have occurred to me to check consulting for "how to get into college by cheating" services.  :D :rolleyes: I could have saved my daughter so much heartache in getting into law school the old fashioned way -- she earned it and is in hock to her eyeballs.  (Like mother, like daughter) :D

    I kinda believe that Lori and her husband are in denial. They're being cocky by refusing a deal. 

    They were beyond cocky in doing what they did in the first place.

    I have to wonder about the guy who designed this scheme and took the money getting his own deal.  How did he even know how to contact these parents?

    As much as the parents are to blame for taking the money, I wonder about the message the parents sent to their kids:  Gee honey, the only way you will get into Harvard is if I pay a shitload of money to a grifter to cheat your way in."  I am not sure whether or not that is a boatload of baggage to carry around or a matter of self-entitlement that comes with being a child of parents with more money then they know what to do with.

    Having said all of that, there is something to be said for finding that their biggest mistake was not funding a building or scholarship to get their kid into school.  Not that I don't think it sends the same message, but (unfortunately) it is legal.
