Speaker 2 (00:22):
Oh my god? A lot of family drama today. Family

David Beckham and his son. Also Beyonce is listening to me.
We'll get to that. Plus Lady Gaga it could have
been real scary, major drama regarding her show in Brazil
(00:44):
over the weekend. Also Chapel Roane has upset people again
and Blake Lively has spoken. We'll get to that and
a lot more. But first, how are you all? Is well?
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Thank you all as well. I went to the Beach
Life Festival this weekend.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
What's that.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
It's a new festival. It's in Redondo Beach and it's
like the most mini mini Coachella. There's two stages, ones
literally on the sand, the other one's like turfed up
and the vibe is like way chill wait I.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Think I know about this was Susannah Hopps performing.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Susannah Hoffs was there, Yes, I love standing next to
her dressing room praying to God that she would come out,
but I didn't see her. Chrissy Hines was also there
from The Pretenders, Oh Cool.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
And Alana's Morrisset performed.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Alanis was last night and I didn't go last night.
But it's like a really laid back good time.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Let me tell you the promoter that can crack a
festival for old people, we'll be making bank. I want
a festival where I can sit.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Down like I don't know, well you could there, you
really could. I mean yeah, you could sit on the
on the turf or on in the sand if you
wanted to, like Lenny Kravitz played. But I would say
it's as close to a festival for old people as
you could get. Put it that way.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
I remember in the UK during the pandemic there were
festivals with like your own little pods. They need to
bring that back, and then they can. They know they
can bring out food to you, like order food and
they'll bring it like right to your little section and
everything like a right. I'm fantasizing. Actually, I spent May
the fourth at a new burlesque show here in Vegas,
(02:18):
the Empire Strips Back that it was fun, and then
I took my kids to a claw arcade that's like
the new trend has that started, and actually they probably
had that for a while in Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Well, they have a human claw at daved Busters. That's
what I went to see. So I think the claw
thing is like end Vogue at the moment.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Oh yeah, I've been to two claw arcades now in
like two weeks. So my kids love it, although I don't.
I mean, I love it, but it's like gambling, Like
it's gambling for kids. Like it worries me that I
might be conditioning my children to become gamblers.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Well it is Vegas. That's probably how they get them
on the tin, you know what I mean, get started early.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Anyways, let's get to this because there's too much show.
Prince Hair Surry, Prince Harry, Prince Harry. I'm trying to
understand all of this. I really am approaching it from
an open mind, but it just doesn't make too much
sense to me. First, on Friday, the initial loss was
a literal loss in court. Prince Harry for years now
(03:19):
had been fighting this decision from RAVAC, the organization who
determines who gets royal protection. They took it away from him. However,
the more I read about this, the more it's just dumb,
he could still have royal protection. He's just been fighting
for years because he thinks he's entitled to royal protection
(03:42):
twenty four to seven, you know, always whenever he's in
the UK. And these people told him, you can have
royal protection for select appearances or for situations where there
is a high risk level. You just have to let
us know ahead of time. But that was not good
enough for him. So he's been fighting and on Friday
(04:02):
he officially lost and it was an appeals court because
he had already lost previously, and now three judges said nope,
you're not entitled to this. And it makes sense to
me because I remember when the Queen was alive, her
daughter Princess Anne, who was like the hardest working royal.
She would carry out more royal engagements than any other royal,
(04:25):
and she didn't have round the clock royal protection, just
whenever she was on the clock, you know, just whenever
she was working.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
And then after the loss, Harry, this is an even
bigger loss, really like and just dumbfounding, he thought it
would be a good idea in California to give an
interview to the BBC A weepy mony interview where he
complains about, you know, he really believes that his father,
(04:53):
and maybe there's truth to this. He believes that if
his father wanted him to receive twenty four to seven
royal protection, that his father could have intervened, even though
the palace says that it's not up to the king,
it's up to this other organization who determines it, all right,
And he said he wants to reconcile with his father,
(05:15):
but he doesn't know how much longer his father has
to live, and he, you know, he's trying to make
things better, but his dad is not talking to him.
And bah bah, here's what I just don't get, Like,
I don't understand how that interview is making things better.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Well, and on top of it, it's like Megan Marple's
dad doing the same thing, you know what I mean,
going to the press and whining and they talk about
how much they hate that. Let's get you a mirror
because you're doing the same thing. And I still believe,
and I still contend that if he actually picked up
the phone directly and did this like a man, or
(05:52):
even said I'm coming there face to face and let's
hash this out.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Well, two things, One he has gone to the UK
and his father has refused to see him his last
three visits and two just because I do like to
be fair, he said, remember to People magazine that his
brother and father have not been responding to his text
and emails.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Right. Well, they've had enough. They've been burnt enough. They're
like when you've got a kid that's a junkie. They're
like media junkies, and they're thinking, at some point, we
have to cut these people off. And that's what they've done.
They've cut them out.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Let me be the booker again. Okay, I'm sure that
they would argue just because Charles and William aren't speaking
out publicly doesn't mean they're not playing the game. They're
playing the game. They're just having the palace and insiders
speak to the media on their behalf without them speaking
on the record.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Which is what always has been done.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Correct. But they're like, I'm sure Harry is like, I
don't want to speak. I don't want to speak through
intermediaries anymore.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Harry knows the game, is all I'm saying, and Harry
could play the game correctly. Look, I just think that
they're they're at their wits in because every time that
they've tried, they've been burnt. They've been burnt by her,
and they've been burnt by his books and his words.
And at some point, like I said, you got to
cut the junkie off because they're going to bleed you dry.
And I think that's where they probably are. But once
(07:16):
again going back to the hey, let's go through the press.
You know it's not going to work with them. They
can see through it and it's just another part of
their reality show existence.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
What I also don't understand is why is he safe
in California but not safe in London?
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Right?
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Like in California, he lives in fucking Monticito. It's not
that difficult to find out his address. I can find
out Oprah's address.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
It's just paparazzi hounding him.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
No, what I'm getting at is, if it is somebody
that wants to harm him, that person could be based
out of the UK and come to the US and
harm him here. Why is he safe here and not there?
Because like here, he doesn't get secret service.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
We probably has his own private security here.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Would be my guess, that's gay he could have if
he's so worried that, you know, the protection that he
can hire independently in the UK. Isn't able to carry weapons,
just higher volume, hire fucking twenty bodyguards.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
If you're that paranoid, I don't think it's about any
of that. I don't even think it has to do
with the paranoia. I think it's entitlement. I think that
he just believes, because his mom was Princess Diana, that
he is entitled. Even though he walked away, even though
they said, if you walk away, you can't have this stuff.
He wants his cake and he wants to eat it too,
And it's like they're like, what do you want us
(08:38):
to do? We told you this is how it works,
and you used to listen to us, and they're continuing
to do it. And now their courts even say, hey,
these are the rules. This is the people's money. By
the way, this isn't your money. The protections, you know,
provided by the people. And by the way, how often
is he there, Perez? That's the other thing. What is
he doing there? And like they said, if you tell
(08:59):
us where you're gonna be, will give it the protection,
and they do. So what's he whining about?
Speaker 2 (09:03):
I think people think that he wants this recognition called
ipp internationally protected person, meaning that's a designation given to
like heads of state, and the King of England is
considered a head of state. You know, he's not Prime Minister,
but he is a head of state. So when he
comes to the US, King Charles, the US taxpayer has
(09:27):
to pay for his protection. And once you're recognized as
an IPP an internationally protected person, you get that protection
anywhere you go.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
So you get to bleed everybody system when you go
on vacation promoting your fucking cookie cream or whatever the
fuck bullshit she's selling. So you know what I'm saying, like,
it's just a grift. It's just another grift. That's all
I get it. I'm glad they said no.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Well, Megan Markel has also chimed in in a very
Megan Markel way. Well, but before I even get to that,
because this is even better, because I think her chiming
in with in response to the Palace's statement, So King Charles,
the Palace was asked about Harry's loss in court, and
they were also asked about his BBC interview and I
(10:12):
mentioned a few moments ago. They don't talk on the record,
they don't give statements, they gave a statement. The Palace
gave an official, on the record statement about the interview
and Harry's loss in court, and this is what they said.
All of these issues have been examined repeatedly and meticulously
(10:33):
by the courts, with the same conclusion reached on each occasion.
One sentence, one savage sentence that basically said, you petulant child.
You should have just taken your l the first time
you lost, but no, you kept going and you wasted
taxpayer money here in the UK fighting this. You wasted
(10:56):
your time, You made our lives more difficult by going
through with this for such a long time.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Yeah. And by the way, and this isn't them just
doing a statement because it's about gossip or Harry. This
is probably an official statement that they have to make
when some sort of hearing has happened. I'm sure it's
part of the process. It has to be done legally,
they have to issue some sort of statement about any
(11:22):
litigation that's going on within the Crown. So I'm guessing
they didn't do it on purpose, but the savageness of
it is pretty fucking awesome.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Well, Megan Markle, whom you mentioned, you know, her father
and the irony of that relationship and all the drama
there is not lost on many. She posted the day
after the interview and the day after the loss in
court a picture of her and her two children, a
black and white photo of the back of their heads. No, no, no, sorry,
(11:52):
it's not her and her kids. I had a brain fart.
It's Harry and their kids. So she posted a photo
of Harry and their kids.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
I'm surprised you didn't hawk something in the middle of it.
And by the way, when given lemons, try my new
fucking shitty lemonade.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Speaking of family drama and British people, Happy birthday, David Beckham.
He just turned fifty years old and he had quite
the star studded celebration in London. Tom Cruise was there
with his rumored new girlfriend, Cuban communist actress Anna Diadamas.
(12:29):
Eva Longoria was there. Lots of people were there, but
noticeably absent was David's oldest his son Brooklyn Beckham. Then
the party continued with a more small, intimate celebration with
just you know, immediate family and closest friends in Paris.
You know, you only turned fifty once. He'd already celebrated
(12:51):
in the US also, and his son Brooklyn was not
at the Paris celebration either, confirmed when Victoria yesterday posted
some images from the celebrations and Brooklyn was nowhere to
be found. And then initially when I saw all this,
I thought, oh, this is just so petty, because if
you remember, this is all stemming from some drama where
(13:16):
Brooklyn Beckham's brother Romeo is dating his ex girlfriend, right, okay,
and that caused, you know, a rift between the brothers
because Brooklyn does not trust his ex Kim, this DJ
and influencer, and he's upset that mom and dad are
seemingly supportive of this. Right, But I don't know, I
(13:39):
questioned that are they supportive or are they just like
hands off, like our kids are in their early twenties
and they're gonna do what they're gonna do and we
can't tell them who to date or who.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Not today, right, I like the latter, I mean, because
like you said, they're twenty. You don't get involved with
people's relationships when they're in their twenties. I mean, come on,
that's a little much. So I tend to believe it's
the latter, and it's I'm sure it's been stated by dad, Hey,
put your big boy pants on. There's bigger things in
life to be worried about than this.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
However, my thinking on all of this changed after I
found out an explosive new piece of information. Brooklyn and
his wife he's married, had no plans to go to
either of David's fiftieth birthday celebrations because they knew that
Romeo and his new girlfriend his ex would be there.
(14:31):
So this is shocking. Brooklyn and his wife flew to
London early last week to spend time with David ahead
of the family celebrations that they wouldn't have to be
there with Brooklyn's brother and the ex girlfriend, and according
to TMZ, David refused to see them, said if you
(14:54):
want to see me, come to my birthday party. I
thought that was a good compromise from Brooklyn, like, I
don't want to be there because that woman makes me uncomfortable,
but I want to celebrate you on your birthday. I'm
flying all the way from the US to London to
be with you. And David didn't.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Make time for him, Like what, I don't buy it.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
What do you mean you don't buy it?
Speaker 1 (15:14):
I don't believe the dad said I'm not going to
see my son because of some drama. I don't care
what TMZ said. I don't buy it.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
Well, there are also rumors that Dave and Victoria don't
like Brooklyn's wife, so that probably might have something to
do with it as well.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
That's weak. Now you're saying the parents are childish on
top of yes, the kids being childish, and look, I
guess I could believe it when you're dealing with people
that were famous as children as the Beckhams were, Okay,
can I see them being stunted adult humans, entitled, rich, annoying? Sure,
I could totally see all of that. But I don't know.
He's fifty and like, at any point are you going
(15:53):
to say I'm not going to see my son. That
doesn't even make sense. I mean, you just pop into
your house whenever you want to. They're your parents. So
I don't buy this.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
That's what they're putting out there, Brooklyn and his wife.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
They're not telling us something. There's something more, And there's
some missing dots in this story.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
I told you the missing part. The Beckhams don't like
Brooklyn's wife, nor the father, nor the in laws.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
No, I think there's just even something more. There's something
still missing. Why don't they like her? What's the empathus
of all this? There's just something in the middle of
this that sticks.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
I don't know, I guess I'm I don't either, I'm
trust guessing I believed it. Well, I'll keep you updated
on all of that, all right, Blake Lively. Blake Lively
chose to give her only interview where she talked about
the It Ends with Us saga to fucking Seth Myers.
(16:47):
But that makes sense for a few reasons. One, he's
not a journalist. Okay, he's a comedian slash late night
talk show host, and nobody watches his show.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Well, no one watches any of those shows at this point.
They're all just online things that are passed around if
you go viral. They just fill slots on TV.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
True, but I still think people watch the morning shows
because they put that on while they're having breakfast. And yeah,
people watch the morning shows. They don't watch the late
night shows.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
I don't think, well, who's up that late anymore? Nobody?
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Yeah, yeah, So she could have done like Good Morning
America or The Today Show or CBS Mornings, but they
probably turned her down because they said, we're only going
to help you promote your movie if you talk about this,
and she probably said, well, sure, I'll give you a
prepared statement, and they're like, well, we're going to ask
you follow up questions and then she's probably just like,
(17:41):
I'm not comfortable with that. No, and Seth Myers is
probably comfortable with that. So that's how she landed on that.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Yeah, I'm sure she had to promote her thing as well.
You sign up for that. It's part of the doing
press for whatever you're doing is part of the contract.
So I'm sure she had to do it. Yeah, that's
my guess. But listen those morning shows. They would have lied.
They would have said, yeah, we won't ask anything, and
they would have brought her on and they would have
asked her. I don't even think they would have cared either.
(18:09):
They would have talked their way into it somehow.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
I don't think they would have lied.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Well, I don't know if lying maybe is the right word,
but I think they would have manipulated the situation. If
she was willing to be on, they would have taken
her just to say we have an exclusive with Blake
Lively tomorrow morning, because it would put eyeballs on a
TV set. That's all all right.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
Well, this is what she had to say. First, she
acknowledged that, you know, she's had a pretty intense year,
but then she was gushing about her kids. She's got
a ten year old, an eight year old, a five
year old, and a two year old and the two
year old. The two year old's actually, you know, an
integral player in the It ends with us at Saga
because if you remember all of the trailer Gate drama
(18:52):
where she was pumping and then breastfeeding and and then
people walked in on her, et cetera. So this is
what she said, It's no surprise I've had a pretty
intense year. They're just my lifeline, meaning her kids. No
matter what day I am having, I have to be
Disneyland for them. It's the best. It's chaos. And then
(19:13):
that opened the door to talking about all of the
situation with Justin Baldoni, and she says, what I can
say without going too into it, is that this year
has been full of the highest highs and lowest lows
of my life. And I see so many women around
afraid to speak, especially right now, afraid to share their
(19:38):
experiences and fear is by design, it's what keeps us silent.
But I also acknowledge that many people don't have the
opportunity to speak, So I do feel fortunate that I
have been able to. It's the women who have had
the ability to use their voice that's kept me strong
(19:58):
and help me in my belief and my fight for
the world to be safer for women and girls. It's
a pretty simple thing. Yeah, so she's doing this for
women and girls.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Thank god, ladies, you're safe.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
She is a champion of those less privileged than her.
She's so privileged that she can speak out about these things.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
I don't know. I just like what's shocking is clearly
that was something rehearsed, sure, and that's what they came
up with. That's what they thought would be good.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Well, they keep going back to this women. Well, you know,
it's not the first time, and I think that's what
they dug in on. I don't know what other card
she could actually play, right, I don't know how you
can manipulate this any other way. I think their narrative
is always going to be her as a woman against
some evil man that tried to make her do things
(20:53):
and that was the original narrative, and I think there's
still somewhat sticking to that, even though we've kind of
seen what actually has played out. I mean, there's just
too much proof out there to say otherwise.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
I mean, I really think it would have been a
better strategy at this point, honestly, more effective. She would
have just said, everything has been so public. This is
totally me, me spitballing right now. Right, Everything has been
so public, and I am excited for this to be
litigated in a court of law, and I am confident
(21:29):
that a jury will agree with the facts. Period.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
That's better. Yeah, yeah, it's much better. From the top
of your head, it was much better.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Yeah, I know. So that's the face, Like I can't
believe she said what she said, but yeah, there we go,
her first interview where she directly addressed it all and
she's doing it for the girls and the women out
there to keep you safely.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Well, look, we're two men, and I will acknowledge that.
And you know, maybe we see this differently than women do.
I think the majority of them are walking in step
with what we're saying mostly, but I got to think
there are other women on the other side of this
that can maybe see her point of view. So I
(22:14):
just want to acknowledge that we're two dudes. That's all
I want to say.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Yeah, yeah, well I would love to hear from I
really want to hear from Blake Lively. Defenders and supporters
call us eight hundred seven two one one one eight
five and let us know your thoughts. On the Patreon
show on Thursday, we talked about Travis Kelcey on following
Ryan Reynolds, right, and you mentioned before it happened that
(22:39):
Ryan Reynolds was going to show up at the Greenway
Green Day Walk. I was getting green and walk.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
That happens to be all the time I was.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
You mentioned before it happened, the Way Walk of Day Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You mentioned that Ryan Reynolds was going to show up
at the Green Day Walk of Fame ceremony where they
were getting their start, and you explained that you know,
they have this like bromance situation and that Ryan is
a big fan. And yeah, we talked about that on
the Patreon and about the unfollowing Patreon dot com slash
(23:10):
Perez Hilton if you want an extra episode.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
And that's a good goddamn episode, too, good reason to
subscribe last week's show.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
It's pretty good, not expensive, and you support us.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Stollar a damn week. I mean, just get the damn show.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
And we you know, are answering comments every day on
the message board there. Anyways, at the ceremony, Ryan Reynolds
was going out and you know, shaking hands and taking
pictures and signing autographs. And this woman who used to
work at TMZ and is now just a social media creator.
Her name is Melanie, Melanie Miller, I believe is her name.
(23:46):
Let me give her a correct shout out. Yes, Melanie Miller.
Shout out to her for doing the lord's work. I
am surprised that this has not happened sooner. For the
first time, one of them, Blake or Ryan, was actually
confronted with something related to all of the drama. So
Melanie asks Ryan what happened with Travis kelcey? Are you
(24:09):
guys good? Are you guys friends? How come he unfollowed you?
And he was stunned because he said nothing.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
He wasn't prepared.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
I was about to say that, Fuck yeah, I was
about to say that because Ryan Reynolds wants this ought
to believe he's the funniest guy. Spoiler alert, he fucking
has writers. I'm sure that script his funny shtick eighty
percent of the time, and maybe twenty percent of the
time it's like just him being naturally funny. But like
anything that he does, it's funny. It comes from a
(24:39):
team of funny people that tell him the funny shit
to say. But if he was a naturally funny person,
he could have responded in a funny way to that
woman asking those questions, or he could have responded many
different ways. He could have said, you know what, like,
I love Travis, I'm a big fan of Travis. Thank
you for asking period.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Right even that's a better response, right, Well, nothing is yeah,
nothing says a.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Lot, exactly. Nothing says a lot.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Nothing says a lot more than talking sometimes, and that's
an example of it. I am so happy I didn't go.
Thank god we had the Patreon because my radio sidekick
was standing right next to Ryan Reynolds, which means I
would have been next to Ryan Reynolds. He's like taking
selfies with them. He even commented on one of my
radio partners like posts, oh really yeah, because he said
(25:30):
to Ryan, he goes, I'm a striker, I do a
show booker and striker, and he goes, oh, I know
who you are. I know who you are. I live
in New York, but I know who you guys are.
And I was like, oh god, I thank god, I'm fining.
It was the first time that I was thankful that
I wasn't in a room because I probably would have
just slithered away. And I was going through my you know,
my mental rollingdecks of what shitty things have I said?
(25:52):
And I'm like thinking everything, Thank God I didn't go
thank god for the Patreon.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Well should I do it?
Speaker 1 (26:03):
What I mean?
Speaker 2 (26:05):
I don't want to be mean to our listeners, but
I did the funniest thing. I'll say spoiler alert. Spoiler
alert if you haven't watched the new Blake Lively movie
and you're planning to watch it, then maybe like fast
forward for the next minute and a half. I found
out a huge plot twist from the new movie at
like literally the day that the film came out, and
(26:26):
I thought, you know'd be really funny if I fucking
spoil it on social media and don't even say spoiler alert.
So I did. I said, I know, I was like
breaking news. Blake Lively has sex with herself in The
New another simple favorite movie, a whole stupid twin sest
(26:47):
plot line, and I didn't say spoiler alerts. I'm like, Oh,
the only people that are going to be mad about
this were people that were planning to watch it.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
I hate to tell you, but you saying that now
I want to watch it. No, yeah, sex with herself,
let's go.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
Oh god, I didn't watch it. I just saw that.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
I told you. I saw a clip of the of
a big scene of her with Danna Kendrick. I was
saying this with the Patriot, and it looks good. Say
whatever you want about her. I think she's a fucking
good actor. I thought she was really great in what
I saw.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
So I can't com for what it's worth, I can't
comment because I've never seen her act in anything.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Watch The Town. She plays like a junkie, but it's
a minor role. It's not a big role. But I
liked her in it.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
Well, no, I won't, but I'll take your word for
that movie.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
By the way, if you guys haven't seen The Town,
it's a really really good movie. If you like heists,
you know, it's like that movie Heat sort of.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
AnyWho. Meanwhile, in Rio de Janeiro, Lady Gaga played the
biggest show of her career, breaking a record set by
Madonna last year for the largest audience for a female musician.
Over two point five million people were at the Copacaba
(28:00):
at a beach. Last year. It was one point six
million for Madonna. There are rumors that it might be
Beyonce next year. And it's actually I'm shocked that more
cities don't do this. There were reports that all of
the tourism and everybody going to Rio for this was
generating one hundred million dollars for the city.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
So any city could flip the dime just to get
their tourism exactly. I see what you're saying.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
It's like the city paid for the concert. The city
paid Gaga. So like even if they paid her like
an exorbitant amount of money, even if they paid her
thirty million dollars and they spent ten million dollars on security,
you know, it's still bringing in tens of millions of dollars.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Tens of millions of dollars, it's worth it. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Wow, Like I'm surprised more people don't do it, but
it could have been a very awful situation because according
to local police there in Rio, they arrested several people
that were planning to bomb the show.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Jeez.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Thankfully they caught them before the show and everything went off,
you know, without incident, and there was a top. There
was five thousand police officers working it, and there were
you know, not just metal detectors, there were metal detectors.
They were also using like facial recognition system, so they
(29:20):
took security very well. And she released this statement afterwards
that really resonated with me. I won't read the whole thing,
but just this one part I think is worth sharing.
She said, I wish I could share this feeling with
the whole world. I know I can't, but I can
say this. If you lose your way, you can find
(29:41):
your way back. If you believe in yourself and work hard,
you can give yourself dignity by rehearsing your passion and
your craft, pushing yourself to new heights. You can lift
yourself up, even if it takes some time. And isn't
that fascinating Because when she began this new era from
her latest album Mayhem, that first single Disease didn't do
(30:05):
well at all, Right, And what's interesting is like Abracadabra,
Abrica dabra is like a rare song that's a huge hit,
even if the Billboard Hot one hundred hasn't deemed it
a huge hit.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Well, let's go on the right way again. And it's
top ten at Pops, so it's still building.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Oh okay, because it never cracked the top ten on
the Hot one hundred. You know what it is.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
It's I think it's just we always talk about like
agism and sexism, and I think a lot of that
when it came out plays a role in it. That oh,
it's Gaga, She's kind of done this before. This feels
like a retread, and everybody's going, you know, it's not
that great, And then the fans showed up and said no, no, no,
(30:49):
it is great, and everybody kept pouring on, piling on,
making the rest of the world pay attention where you
take a second look or listen to things like aberca dabra.
Admit when I heard Abracadabra, and I know why I
didn't like it. I've said a million times I hate
visuals being introduced to me with a song because I
can't get it out of my head. And she had
(31:11):
that what was it super Bowl or wherever she debuted
the the Grammys?
Speaker 2 (31:15):
The MasterCard commercial?
Speaker 1 (31:16):
Is that what it was? Yeah? And I didn't like
the video. It was too like plastic and robotic and
I just didn't feel it. And it kind of gets
in my mind. But the record's great, you know, and
it's steam rolling now. It's almost like Kendrick Lamar with
the super Bowl. That song got ten times bigger. They're
not like us after the super Bowl. And sometimes things
(31:36):
like that happen and it's cool and it's organic. But
I like what she's saying because to me, if you
like really dive into what you read, it says she
was down. Yeah, somewhere like that. She was really something
happened that. I don't know what that was or is
or looked like. And to what you said about her
rehearsing and by the way, they had the rehearsal video
(31:57):
of her doing the full show before the forty thousand
people watching that, I don't know what it was that
had her down.
Speaker 2 (32:05):
I think it was everything. Yeah, I think it was
like she's she's very competitive, like all those the top
people are competitive, maybe feeling jealous of Taylor's swift and
seeing Taylor being so big.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
Yeah, but she was in A Star is Born, a
hit movie and had a number one record from it,
and still I don't known did a complete pivot, right,
Like she's out there with Tony Bennett, who does that
in the middle of their white hot career, says, you
know what, fuck this all, I'm gonna go do standards,
you know what I mean? Like that to me in
retrospect is even more amazing that she's went back to
this gear and it's working so big, and the production
(32:40):
of this show is just like, yeah, I can't get
what you said about Beyonce out of my head, Like, yeah,
her tour is kind of phoned in when you look
at how Gaga really up the game with this tour.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
Well, speaking of Beyonce, this was a I appreciate that
she took the note and thick stick quickly, but I
would also have been very disappointed if I went to
the very first night of her tour and then this
second night it was substantially different and better. On night
two of her new Cowboy Carter tour, Beyonce included a
(33:15):
seven minute long hits medley where she did single Ladies
Love on top irreplaceable and if I were a.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
Boy, you need those songs.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
Yes, and she gave it to the people.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Well, the rumor is the story, and I don't know
how true it is, but they're saying there are four
different sets that she's doing, so it isn't going to
be the same show, but it is a rotation of four.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
I don't know if I believe it, but that's just
kind of what I've heard from my people.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Has the third night happened yet?
Speaker 1 (33:45):
I don't believe. So Wednesday and Friday are the shows
this week, and I'm going to try to go Friday.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
That's so weird that the days are so space to part.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Is there there's nothing going on?
Speaker 2 (33:55):
Maybe she's still working on it then there, I guess.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
I don't know, that's possible.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
Interesting. Actually I saw that theory too. Apparently if you
look at some tour graphic, there's different pictures in the stars.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
Oh, and it might be related to like a like
there's a correlation with that night with the stars and
the pictures and the show you're gonna get and the
fans will figure it out.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
I'd hate to be on Night one set list because
that didn't have the fucking.
Speaker 1 (34:22):
Hits, you know, right, well, you can read the room
and make adjustments, especially when you have four different things
to choose from, if you say, hey, one's work and
let's do that. Because she's probably not doing multiple nights
in all these cities, is she. Yeah? I don't know.
I think yeah, you think I didn't know some of
these cities that they were big enough. But she's probably
just doing big cities, right. She's probably not going to
(34:42):
Denver or whatever. She's probably just New York, Los Angeles, Chicago.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
Yeah. Speaking of musicians, Kanye West has finally admitted I
mean he did in that one song, the awful song
about his cousin were whatever. Anyways, Kanye and his wife
beyond Una are suing his former dentist for allegedly getting
him hooked on nitrous gas. I mean, good, I guess,
(35:10):
but he's still like saying crazy shit. It's like you
can't blame it on the nitrous you know. It's like
I wish him, like, even though I don't like Kanye,
everybody deserves sobriety, So I wish him well.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
You wish him well. I wish he would just go away.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
Also, Chapel Roan has been announced as a judge on
the upcoming season of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars, and
people are so pissed at her. Not a lot of people,
some because of what she wore on the episode. She
looks like a dressed up sex doll, like a blow
up doll. And like this one comment is just hilarious.
(35:46):
It says, dressing up as a literal sex object is
such a disgusting and misogynistic move. But what do we
expect from a male centered woman?
Speaker 1 (35:57):
I don't even get that.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
I don't either. But this is like just days after
people were shitting on her for an interview where she
talked about she auditioned for the voice and that the
producer didn't even look up from their phone. People just
have a boner for hating on her, and I don't know,
I love her. Speaking of boners, it looks like Kylie
Jenner got a boob job. Did anybody else notice that? Really,
(36:21):
her boobs look huge. I don't think those are natural.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (36:24):
Well, I mean, what's natural about any of them?
Speaker 2 (36:26):
Yeah? But they look great. They look great?
Speaker 1 (36:28):
Is this breaking news?
Speaker 2 (36:30):
They look great? Also? Donald Trump posted tomb I don't
even want to talk about it too long because he's exhausting.
But he posted this one stupid meme of him as
the pope and that have set a lot of people sure.
Then he posted another meme. This one is more interesting.
He posted another meme on May the fourth where he
is holding a red lightsaber. Right, that's the dark side side,
(36:54):
the bad people hold the red lights.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
That's what he wants to do. They don't get it.
They look they're just trolling at this point, trying to
make talking points. Muddy the waters, that's what they're doing.
Speaker 2 (37:04):
Also that one. Jordan Hudson and Bill Belichick's story keeps
on everyday new headlines and it seems like his kids
hate her and there's a lot of drama there. So
I'll keep up any major updates there. Also, Happy Birthday
Gigi had died. She just went public with Bradley Cooper
(37:25):
for the first time.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
IG Official.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
Yeah yeah, we had talked about her birthday party on
the Patreon and Taylor Swift going there and Blake Lively
not being invited. But she shared pictures from the birthday
party and in one of the photos you see Bradley
Cooper kissing her.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
By the way, speaking of photos, how cute are the
Ed sheeran old phone photo drops like look at it,
Taylor Swift, she's such a young girl, at him, everybody,
at them, Harry Styles, Mac Miller. It was so cool,
like seeing those old pictures. I thought that was a
cute thing to drop.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
Well, we're gonna talk about that right now, very briefly.
I don't really care for the song though, which one
Ed Sharon's the new Phone?
Speaker 1 (38:05):
Yeah, yeah, I don't know. It'll probably work its way
in my head eventually.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
It's fine. I don't I mean, it's not like one
of his great ballads, but it's very B minus.
Speaker 1 (38:13):
I would say it's not even ballads for him that
I like. It's like Barcelona. It's everything from Divide, that
whole Record's Galway Girl, all those like singer songwriter folk
kind of things. That's my favorite Ed Sharon. I don't
like pop Ed Sharon.
Speaker 2 (38:27):
Also, Kelly Clarkson released a new song called where have
You Been? And this is a bit of an Adele song,
but like an Adele B side. This was like a
C minus C maybe from me, Oh, I haven't heard it.
Some film news, Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves are reuniting
for a new movie thirty one years after Speed. We
(38:50):
don't know anything about it other than it's being described
as a romantic thriller. I'm down for that. Also, Jeremy
Renner says that Marvel offered him to return for Hawkeye
season two and only wanted to pay him half of
what they paid him the first season.
Speaker 1 (39:07):
That means season one wasn't that good, is what it
means to me.
Speaker 2 (39:10):
I thought that too. It's like, all right, I'll take
the paycheck. I don't know. Also, he reveals in this
new memoir that after that snow plow accident two years ago,
he says he died, that he died and then came
back to life miraculously, but that he died on that
street wild Okay, And finally the Diddy trial begins with
(39:33):
jury selection. So I'll keep you guys updated on Thursday
if there are any developments from there. But today, obviously
there's no developments.
Speaker 1 (39:42):
There's nothing happening today. It's just a bunch of yeses
and nos.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
Yeah, that's that.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
Just take some calls.
Speaker 3 (39:47):
Hey, I'm calling from Shawnay, Oklahoma. My name's Taylor Kin,
and my husband was asking me about video that he
saw about Justin Bieber whatever, and I asked on the
message board pay Patreon, and you guys answered, and whenever
I shared, my husband because I got you guys on
Patreon for my birthday, my birthday present or whatever, and
(40:08):
my husband's like, he answers you because I like talk
about you guys now all the time. Because I started
listening after seeing PRIs on Facebook with all the Blake
Lively stuff.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
But anyway, it's.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
Just a short promo for the Patreon. I guess. I
love how you guys message back and all that.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
Fie. Oh my god, I love that. A new listener
just within the last twelve months. Yay.
Speaker 1 (40:29):
Well, it sounds like she's like following your Facebook stuff too,
so she's like kind of really new to everything. So
that's that's pretty awesome to.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
Hear I post everywhere you know you do so omni present. Yeah,
it's important.
Speaker 4 (40:41):
Hi, this is not a least from Santa Monica. I
just subscribed to Patreon. I'm loving it. My question is
Taylor Swift is the godmother to Blake Lively's daughter, and
I'm wondering what you think will happen with that if
they are no longer friends. I'm just wondering because I'm
both the children. They have a very close relationship. You know,
(41:01):
Blake's daughter was seated on Taylor's song Gorgeous like the
little kid voice. I don't know if it's wondering love
you guys, bye.
Speaker 2 (41:09):
Well, I think the same thing will happen. That happened
with Taylor Swift and Jamie Presley. They used to be
friends and then they had a falling out and now
they're not friends anymore. So the same thing's happening with
Blake Lively.
Speaker 1 (41:22):
It is weird when you name somebody a godparent, that's
usually indicative of like you're like the best friends in
the world and inseparable.
Speaker 2 (41:28):
That's why Cubans don't do that, Like if we have
you know, my godfather was my uncle and my godmother
is my cousin who's like fifteen years older than me,
so she's more like an aunt than a cousin, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
Yeah, I don't have godparents. I don't think I'll ask
my mom, but I don't think I do. If I do,
I don't know who they are.
Speaker 2 (41:48):
Yeah, I might get my kids baptized in the future.
We'll see you.
Speaker 1 (41:52):
Love guilt, get that fucking Catholic guilt in there.
Speaker 2 (41:54):
Come. Well, I'm just doing it. I would just do it.
If I want to get my kids into like the
good Catholic school for high school, I would just do
it for that reason. You know, it helps, It helps
to get them in.
Speaker 1 (42:08):
Yeah, I'm sure. Yeah, thank you guys for listening. We
do have the Patreon Show on Thursday, and yeah, there's
a lot of Diddy stuff coming up, so maybe we'll
have something there.
Speaker 2 (42:16):
Patreon dot com slash Perez Hilton. Have a wonderful week, everybody,
