Jessica Simpson is back, but should she had stayed gone? What's going on with Selena Gomez? Was Morgan Wallen being intentionally rude to SNL? Should Brian Austin Green kept Machine Gun Kelly's rude DM to him private - or was it okay to publicly expose him? Ariana Grande wants us to believe her lies? And much more!

Speaker 1 (00:01):
From Los Angeles, the phpaint.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
One and only, Perez Hilton.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Everybody, Welcome to the PHPA Booker here, Perez there, what
is coming up?
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Oh my god, we have too much show, So just
take this as a guide and not a promise. If
we don't get to everything I mentioned here at the teas,
we will discuss it all to be discussed still on
the Patreon Thursday at patreon dot com slash Perez Hilton.
All Right, Morgan Wallin over the weekend upset a lot
of people with his SML appearance. I'll explain why and
(00:44):
talk more. Justin Bieber has got many folks worried even more,
so I'll tell you the latest there. Also, Megan Fox's
baby daddies are at war. The Hogan family Hulk Hogan's
daughter and ex wife are beefing with each other publicly,
Ariana Grod versus her fans, plus Jessica Simpson, Sidney Sweeney,
Chapel Rowan Will Smith, Jojo Siwa, and maybe even more.
(01:07):
But let's just skip any chit chat and get right
to Morgan Wallen over the weekend, the country singer and
songwriter with a past, in fact not so far distant past.
Just in December, he pled guilty to reckless endangerment for
that incident where he threw a chair many stories up
(01:29):
above this, you know establishment in Nashville, and the police
were just right nearby and unlucky for him, but luckily
nobody got injured. He was sentenced to seven days in
a DUI detention center. It's unclear if he's served that
time yet, but he had enough time over the weekend
to perform on Saturday Night Live. And I don't watch
(01:52):
SNL religiously, but I've read that what he did is
pretty much unheard of, Like I don't think it's ever
been before. So if you don't watch SNL, you know,
they have the opening monologue and that's the same every show,
and then they have the goodbyes where the host, the
special host and the musical guests and the cast all
just stand there and they wave goodbye and they chitchat
(02:15):
with each other. And it's not very long. It's like
less than a minute.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Yeah, like twenty seconds of standing there and everybody's hugging
each other. It's like this forced good box.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
So Morgan walland hugs the host, Mikey Madison, the actress
who just won the Oscar and he walks off stage
through the audience front of house, breaking the camera. Not
breaking the camera, it's an expression like, you know, going
past the camera, and people thought he was pissed. And
what definitely contributed to that theory was that after he
(02:48):
left SNL, he posted a picture of his private plane
and he captioned it, get me to God's Country, implying
in the minds of many that perhaps SNL, where he
was for you know, the time that he was in
New York, is a godless country, or or that he was,
you know, not happy with his experience on SNL. So oh,
(03:11):
I'm so sick of this. Take me to where I
belong in God's Country.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
I'm sorry, but as someone from God's country, and if
I had never been to New York before, and I
was around a bunch of strangers all week and I
just posted I'm coming home to my family, friends, whomever,
and you just posted something like that, big deal. I mean,
he'd leave early, he did his goodbyes, he did his hug,
he did everything. I mean, I find this to be
(03:35):
much to do about nothing. And I kind of feel
like maybe the guys never watched the end of SNL
before because, by the way, who could fucking make it
to the end of SNL. I mean, the show has
been so god awful for so many years. Yes, there's
bits that live online, but I don't know if everyone
knows that you're supposed to stand there through the whole thing.
(03:55):
I don't know. Maybe it's a little bit rude, but
I just think that this there's a lot to do
about nothing.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
That's what I was going to say. I don't know
if it's a lot to do about nothing. I think
people interpreted as ungrateful. They just booked him on SNL,
which is perhaps easily one of the most coveted things
in music.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
And he did a great job, and he did his part,
and he was present for the entire week, and no
one has one complaint to say about him, and jeez,
he just peels out. He doesn't know anybody there, and
he wants to get home to whomever. I just don't
find this to be even a story. And I just
can't believe how much traction this has gotten. I mean, look,
if there was some beef and we heard some shit
(04:36):
that you know he pulled or did, or somebody else did,
or some sort of conflict happened. Okay, but I've heard
of none of this. I just heard that he he
pieced out and maybe he did it in rehearsals too.
I mean, who knows. I mean the whole God's Country.
I mean, that's hell. I would say that, you know,
get me back to God's Country. I mean, that's not
a big it's just a Southern expression.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Well, his team has begun damage control or quote damage control.
If there is any damage.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
If I was his team, I'd do nothing. I'd say nothing.
I would just let it die because the story's gone
by tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
They chatted to Variety and said that he meant nothing
by it, that he had a good time on SNL,
that that's just how he entered and exited the stage
all week long when he was rehearsing, And they claim
that there's not much more to it than that.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Yeah, I see the press really bored this weekend, is
what I see.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Well, No, once again, it's got nothing to do with
the press.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Well, I've just seen the story so many times, is
what I'm saying, and I just kind of feel like
it's much to do about nothing.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Because it was big on social media. The press picked
it up because it was trending across socials.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Doesn't make the Internet right. The Internet is generally wrong.
So I don't know. I once again I think this
is dead by tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I definitely do think it's rude of him.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Yeah, I mean, if you want to say it's rude, fine,
But I don't think the guy meant to be rude,
or maybe he did. He's just like I'm done, I'm
out of here, you know, and just pieced out. You know.
They have typically have a party at their snow. I'm
shocked that he didn't stay for that or want to
stay for that, But you know, you got a plane
out there at Teeterborough and you're like ready to go.
(06:13):
Like it just sounds like he had a week, it
was work. He just wanted to get home.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
That's that. Also, the story that'll be bigger today even
than that, is justin Bieber a lot of action over
the weekend on his ig account, which is interesting. He's
officially an old man. If he was, like, you know,
in his twenties, I feel like he'd be much more
active on TikTok and using that platform. But it seems
(06:38):
like Instagram is his platform of choice. So kudos to Instagram.
For not being culturally irrelevant yet or at all, because
you know, TikTok might fucking go away. I don't know.
It's supposed to be going back into ban on the
fifth of April. Oh really, Yeah, nobody's really talking about it. Wow,
we'll see what happens there.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
I'm guessing nothing.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Yeah. Donald Trump just wants to save the day. Oh
my god, I saw total aside the new Oh god.
Donald Trump keeps talking about running for a or being
president yet again a third time. And there is some speculation, well,
how could you do that? Well, and actually I literally
just saw this right before recording. But maybe, you know,
(07:18):
maybe a listener knows. There is a working theory that
if JD. Vance were to run for president and Donald
Trump as vice president and JD. Van steps down, that
Donald Trump would then become president. Right? Is that true?
Barack Obama could also be president again then too.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Not really, because the constitution sets See this whole thing
is like, first of all, I would have all of
these people locked up for treason. The Constitution is the
thing you swore to protect. And the Constitution says that
you can serve two terms. And that's what it says.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
How could Trump do it, but not Barack Obama.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Because Barack Obama would have to have somebody to run
in his steed, and he'd have to do the same thing.
He'd have to have somebody run and win, and they
would have to do the same thing.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
You know, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
But he's not going to do that because I believe
he cares about the Constitution. The Constitution is very clear
about two terms for a president. Once again, this administration
sidestepping the rules, trying to find the back door and everything.
Treason is what I call this. The Constitution says very
clearly what they wanted and the reasoning for it. And
(08:26):
this is the reason, because you don't want a dictator whatever.
That's a long time from now. And look at the guy.
He's going to be what eighty three by the eighty four,
he will probably be dead by then. Let's be honest.
It's not an easy job. So we'll say once again,
another distraction is all that it.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Is justin Bieber, all about Instagram. And you know, I
had this thought, he's still allegedly very religious but loves marijuana.
And you know, I grew up Catholic, but all Christian faith.
I don't think any of them condone or promote or
(09:03):
approve of marijuana use.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Well, there was no marijuana back in those days. It's
a plant. Who knew that a plant was gonna get
you high? Or I don't think religion has much to
do with it.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Growing up Catholic, that was a bad thing.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
It's just was called a drug. Everything fell under the
drug umbrella and drugs are bad and that's the message.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Or not even drugs, like in my Catholic school, they're like, oh,
you should not be drinking a lot or or whatever. Anyways,
he even this one post on his ig story. It
was just like, I don't know what do you call
it when you're like, I think it was like pulverized
weed or something.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Is it like hash? I don't know anything about the weed.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Yeah, I'm not a weed person. I don't like it.
Like I could tell it was weed, but it was
like ground up weed, I feel like. Anyways, he clearly
was on a lot of that, it seems. And then
he went live and was like, I don't even know
how to describe. He was weird. It was very a
weird live. It was just tie seemed like he was high.
I don't want to say that.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Okay, Well you said that there was some weed involved,
so it sounded like he was high.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Well, you know, I'm being very careful here.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
He also shared a photo of his wife, and people
are reading into this because he chose a song from Shahdi.
But the song is called Jezebel. If you don't know, Jezebel,
according to the Dictionary, that is quote an immoral woman
who deceives people in order to get what she wants.
(10:30):
Oh my god. A different dictionary says that Jezebel is
an impudent, shameless, or morally unrestrained woman. Oh my god,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Is there a Jezebel reference in the Bible as well?
Speaker 2 (10:45):
I feel like think, oh, yes, that's how it came
to be.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I don't know. Once again, he's got a trolling.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Well his wife is in on it, or there's something
going on because Haley over the weekend and followed him
on Instagram. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
After a certain point, is it really just trolling or
is something going on?
Speaker 1 (11:05):
You're right, it could be one of the other.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
I would like to believe it's trolling. But if you're
doing this much trolling, Like, bro, how desperate?
Speaker 1 (11:13):
What else do they have to do? She has not
announced a talent in her body, and he refuses to
use the talent he has except for on Instagram at
this point, Seriously, I'm not even like trying to be funny.
What the fuck else do they have to do?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Well? You know what I've said on a recent episode,
or maybe I didn't say it, but I'm saying it
now so many ways. Justin Bieber is like the male
Britney spears.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Oh god, now he's not there yet. I mean what,
he's posting some weird stuff online. He's not out there
doing anything dangerous yet yet.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Yeah, I don't know about that.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Well, that's everything with Bieber. Hopefully it's just trolling. Equally dumb,
I guess is the word Machine Gun Kelly and Brian
Austin Green are beefing publicly. And also this is so
se list of him. I would say that this is
an accurate assessment. Okay, Usually, if you're an A lister,
(12:12):
A listers never announce a baby's birth the same fucking
day the baby was born. But that's exactly what Machine
Gun Kelly did. Megan Fox gave birth to their daughter,
and that same day he put it out on Instagram.
She's finally here, our little celestial seed. It's a little
(12:34):
se list, but that's okay.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Or you're a parent that's excited that you just had
a kid. I don't really think that's sealsty or any listy.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
For celebrities, yes, it is. An A lister will never
announce their child, especially when they're still in the freaking hospital.
Or maybe not in the hospital. Maybe she did a
home birth. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
But still I never really thought of it, and I
wouldn't like think it's low brow, just that they did that,
and I think it's exciting. And look, when you're a guy,
let's be honest, you got nothing to do in this.
You're just a passenger. The woman does all the goddamn work.
So if you're sitting out in a lobby and your
board and you're in a person that communicates on Instagram
twenty four to seven every thought that you have and
(13:14):
what you had from breakfast, I mean, this doesn't even
seem shocking or weird to me.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
It's weird to me. It's not an a it's not
an A list move.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
He's not an a lister. He's machine Gun Kelly exactly.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
And she's not an A lister either.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
No, she's not either. He's probably c she's b as
a couple, they're a bee.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Yeah, definitely, that's an accurate assessment. I would say. Well,
that same day out, just hours before, he shared the
baby birth announcement, Megan Fox's ex husband and the father
of her three children, she finally got a girl. You
know her other kids are all boys. With Brian Austin Green,
(13:53):
machine Gun and Kelly had messaged Brian Austin Green, and
Brian Austin Green took a screenshot and posted it on
his Instagram story the message that MGK sent him. He
slid him to his DMS and said, stop asking when
our child is going to be born you the Feds.
Then an emoji of a rat and a police officer.
(14:13):
Quit calling TMZ.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
These are adults, by the way.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Yeah, alleged adults. Quit calling TMZ and focus on that
apology you owe me for speaking on my name in public.
You chose the wrong one to fuck with, mister child actor.
Go back to serial commercials. So then Brian shared that
and added some laughing emojis and said I didn't know
(14:40):
child actor was something bad LEO careful, he may be
coming for you next. Yeah, children, I know. I mean
I kind of like it because I love the content.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
I agree with you. It's weird, like half of me
is like, why would you even respond to something so
stupid and petty? But then again, I'm like, if you
got a funny life, knock yourself out. He outdid him.
If I had to judge this beef, I'd say that
Brian Austin Green won that round.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
But both I would say are messy. I mean, if
he wanted to take the high road, he would not
have shared that.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
You know what, it doesn't hurt anybody. There's no kids
involved in this, there's no anything that really affects anyone.
It's more just fodder for us dipshit. So if you
want to do that, fine, Once again, what else do
a bunch of c listers have to do? It's their currency, right,
So doesn't shock me.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
So in terms of messiness, you'd say machine gun Kelly
is messier.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Though, Yeah, but it's close, right, I mean, even responding,
you've just dropped yourself into the mud puddle yourself. But
if you want to gauge who has more mud on them.
I guess I'd have to say machine gun Kelly, he started.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
It, Okay, I would agree with that, and this one.
I also think there's a clear messy one. Linda Hogan,
who people of a certain age remember, not just because
she used to be married to Hulk Hogan, but in
the early two thousands, Hul Cogan had a very successful
reality TV show that ran for a few seasons. I
think he was on VH one, right.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
I think so, yeah, Hogan knows best or something, Yes, exactly.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
Linda Hogan took to social media, and she's older than
Justin Bieber, so she posted it on her Facebook account.
I love it. If we were talking about somebody in
their twenties, it'd be TikTok. Bieber's in his thirties, so
he's using the Instagram, and Linda Hogan is probably like
sixty something, so she's all about Facebook. Linda Hogan took
(16:40):
to Facebook to post a teary eyed video crying over
the fact that her daughter Brooke is estranged from her
and that she recently gave birth and she's said that
she's not involved in the children's life, and she claims
that Brooke is estranged from both her and the father.
(17:00):
Linda is no saint. She I'm sure did a lot
of things in the past. In fact, that's exactly what
Brooke Hogan alleged. She did respond publicly to her mother,
saying she didn't want to do this, but that she
felt that she had to to set the record straight.
She claims that she has her own reasons for going
no contact with both her mother and her father, and
(17:22):
that at various points throughout her life she had been
verbally and mentally abused by her parents, and often it
turned physical. She claimed they'd be degrading her and using her,
asking her to lie all sorts of things. Because if
you remember, I think it was like ten years ago,
(17:44):
Hulk Cogan was caught on tape saying racist things and
then Brooke defended him publicly. Linda started dating somebody almost
her daughter's age, which maybe she didn't like that, Like,
there's like a whole bunch of messiness. So Brooke Hogan
shared her truth, and then Linda Hogan did not like
(18:04):
hearing that. She responded back to her daughter, calling her
a narcissist and a drunk I'm like, okay, great, mom,
I know now who the problem is. Clearly, even if
your daughter is a narcissist or a drunk or both,
you putting her on blast like that tells me enough
that I need to know about you and let me
figure things out.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
I think there isn't a threshold of intelligence for reality shows,
and when they throw everybody in these pools, generally people
are dumb that are fucking on them. It's like they're
still in their minds. They're still on TV and they're
still performing for people their audience on the Facebook or whatever.
Linda Hogan starts it and then the daughter responds, which
(18:47):
that's what she wants as a response, and then she
takes a shit on her response. It's it's like it's
a vicious cycle and circle that they keep continuing in
and it's just funny.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
To her credit, Brooke has led a pretty normal life
for the last decade or so.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
In fact, I think in one of her responses she
talked about how she had to get like a normal
job for a while there because she didn't have money.
Hulk Hogan, Now everything is coming to light. I feel
like we've not heard the end of all this drama
because for a few reasons, it's kind of like why
Octomom is getting a lot of attention now because she
(19:28):
had ghosted the world for a while. The Hogans had
also basically, well not really. We did talk about Hull
Hogan on the podcast recently and how he showed up
at one of the wrestling things. He got booed.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
He was part of Trump's you know, I'm surprised he's
not the Secretary of Defense or something at this point. No,
he's been in the mix. Yeah, so he's for certain audiences.
He's been back. He never really went away.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
But then as a family, you know, as a family,
they haven't really been talked about in a while.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Right, Maybe they're priming the pump for something, or maybe
they think, and I mean Linda thinks that by doing
this she can garner some interest. When I believe that
the daughter probably wants nothing to do with it. Oh yeah,
I believe that the daughter is probably going Why did
I even respond? Because I knew this was the response
I was going to get. Why did I lower myself
(20:16):
into this cesspool? That sucks? Because it really is their family.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Well, we've learned that Hulk Hogan his new wife, that
they've only been married a couple of years. She is
a hardcore second generation scientologist. Bad news. That's all I
will say. Bad news. So I feel like what we
will be hearing more from them? All right? Gal Gadot
(20:41):
and Rachel Zegler. I thought it was Gal Gadot, Oh right,
Gal Gadot, Jesus, Gal Gadot and Rachel Zegler. Variety ran
a very informative article about all the snow white drama
and the reasons for a lot of the behind the
scenessness of it all. Apparently Gal and Rachel did get
(21:04):
along while filming. It wasn't until afterwards that things got
really bad, especially recently, especially because Rachel, in the comments
of Instagram on one post, called Gal a glorified beauty
pageant queen. And even if she was a beauty pageant queen,
that's so dismissive and you don't say that about a
(21:25):
fellow actor. But I don't care about that. What I
care about was this. This was the most glaring thing,
according to Variety, last summer, after Gal and Rachel went
to this Disney event called D twenty three, which is
kind of like Comic Con.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
It's the big Disney event that they put on.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
She thanked everybody for watching the trailer of Snow White
because it got a lot of views online. And then
she said and as always free Palestine, And people were
at Disney were very upset that, not necessarily that she
talked about Palestine, but that she did it on Twitter
in a thread where it was about the movie. Like,
(22:05):
you know, keep your political opinion separate from the film
you're promoting, is what people thought. So the producer of
the movie, Mark Platt, flew from Los Angeles to New
York to talk to her and to also try to
get her to delete that, and she didn't. She did
not delete the as always remember free Palestine. Then what
(22:25):
made it to me even more interesting is that the
son of Mark Platt, Jonah Platt, an actor, a NEPO baby,
the brother of Ben Platt. He also took to Instagram
to write a lengthy response to somebody calling him out
for what his dad did. He's like, yes, this happened.
He left his family to go talk to this actress
who got paid millions of dollars and blah bla bla
(22:47):
blah blah. And I think we mentioned on the Patreon
I think that she's going to be starring in a musical,
right so that's that's what she's doing. At the end
of this year, she's going to be a vida on
the West End in London. I do think that how
she handled this all will unfortunately negatively impact her career,
especially now that we know this right that her bosses
(23:10):
told her take that down and she didn't. She didn't
play ball, she didn't play the game. However, when I
was fucking twenty years old, I would have done whatever
I was wanted to do.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
You could see yourself doing the same thing.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Yeah, And I would have not taken it down, right.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
You would have buried your feet in the sand and
would have said, you know what, I'm dug in here.
And that's what's happening.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Still, even in my forties, I don't like being told
what to do, That's true. Who knows even if I
would have taken it down, I would know now I
would have definitely taken it down. If the big ball
I'm not an idiot, right like that thing. I mean,
I'm not the brightest. But also if I was doing
a big Disney movie, yeah, and the producer and also
(23:54):
she's burned not just a bridge with Disney, but this
guy Mark Platt is not a producer that's exclusive to Disney.
He also produced Wicked for Universal. Like, so this guy
does it huge movies. He's a huge, powerful, prolific producer.
And she's burned that bridge too.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Look in Hollywood, when the cat gets out of the
bag and people know you're a pain in the ass,
your career and your work will stop unless you are
insanely talented. I mean, you have to be next level talented.
And there's let's be honest, there's a handful of those
in Hollywood. Everybody else is just lucky. Yeah, Okay, So
if a boss is like you know, if it's between
(24:35):
two people and you're essentially the same and one's a
pain in the ass and one isn't, they're gonna go
with the one that isn't a pain in the ass.
And that's just the facts. That's life, and that's any job.
So if you want to go ahead and you want
to tweet and you want to be dug in on
things like that, it'd be like in twenty years you'll
look back and go, remember when I was an actor,
because that's what will end up happening.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Well, you can still be happy doing theater. Hey, Look, I.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Think if this was pre booked, and if they if
they had a whiff of this, and if they had
any idea that this could have been coming, they probably
would not have hired her. They probably would have looked elsewhere.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
I disagree. I think the theater community is much more
forgiving than regular show biz, and the fact that she's
been in some big movies from West Side Story to
now Snow White, that will always give her cachet in
true theater.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
If she could put asses in seats, I don't know.
I still think at the end of the day, if
you're pain in the ass, that'll catch up with you
and people will stop hiring.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
We will see over the weekend. On Friday, Ariana Grande
released a new version of her last album with six
new songs on it. And I heard them and they're
all just fine. None of them are bad, but it
all feels like okay, six more album tracks, like not
a single. One of those songs felt really special to
(25:53):
me or like they could be a single. But I thought, Wow,
she's gonna capitalize off of the Wicked momentum and at
least give a push for one of the new songs
to be a single and be a hit. I thought
she would want to hit, But no, because none of
these songs are a hit in my opinion. But there's
one song in particular that people are talking a lot
about because it's about her boyfriend. And let me read
(26:15):
to you some lyrics quickly. The songs called Hampstead, she says,
singing in the song, I left my heart at a
pub in Hampstead, and I misplaced my mind in a
good way, threw away my reputation but saved us more heartache. Yes,
I know it seems fucked up, and you're right, but
quite frankly, you're still wrong about everything so far off
(26:38):
your seat's nowhere near the table. But I find something
sweet in your peculiar behavior, because I think to be
so dumb must be nice. What makes you think you're
even invited? The doors are closed, with the lights off inside,
and all the while there's no one home, you're still outside.
I wonder why? What's wrong with a little bit of poison?
(26:59):
Tell me I would I rather feel everything than nothing?
Every time? Fear me stranger, a little bit of sugar danger.
I'd rather be seen and alive than dying. By your
point of view, you think you've read the book, I'm
still writing. I can't imagine wanting so badly to be right.
Guess I'm forever on your mind. I wonder why. Here
are the facts, the undisputable facts. Arianna Grande started her
(27:25):
relationship with her boyfriend while they were filming Wicked Okay,
also at the beginning of production. He was still with
his wife at the time, and she had just given birth,
and she flew all the way from the US to
the UK to be with him and support him and
so that their son could be there too. They were
(27:47):
still married, and she believed they were happily married. Then
that when from happily married to not happily married quickly
after she had just given birth and gone to this
other country to support his dreams. And then Ariana started
dating him, and she was also married at the time.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Yeah, they'd been separated, yes.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
But not Ethan Slater and his wife. So you know,
she doesn't want to clarify what people got wrong. But
those are all facts, right, those are all facts. So
what exactly did we get wrong? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
The whole thing is shocking to me that they're still together.
That's what blows my mind because typically when a relationship
is rooted in some sort of deception or lie or
half truth. It all outs for some reason. It just
typically does within the relationship and it falls apart. I'm
shocked at they're together, but you know, maybe they're just
two incredibly caved in human beings. I don't know. I
(28:42):
have no idea.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
And all of the facts that I shared that was
based on what Ethan Slater's ex wife said herself when
she wrote this article about being a therapist and having
her work be affected because her private life is now public.
And she didn't mention names, and she didn't really she
didn't spill too much tea, but she spilled enough enough
(29:04):
that I shared with you all the facts according to her,
So you know, it is what it is once again.
Pereza Damis, I'm like, you know, a week ahead of
everybody else on the Patreon I believe, or maybe it
was last Monday, but on a recent episode, we talked
about Jojo Siwa going on tour and how this time
around she was doing smaller venues because her last tour
(29:26):
three years ago, she was doing arenas. Now she's doing
House of Blues venues across the country or similar type
of layouts, you know, like a general admission area down
and then like seats above and et cetera, et cetera.
That was me five days ago. Now, over the weekend,
people were obsessing over the fact that Jojo was selling
(29:48):
a nine hundred dollars VIP ticket where fans could work
for her, although that was misconstrued. What it was described
at as was help her with the set. What she
meant by that, and she clarified, is help her decide
what songs are gonna be in the show. So help
her with the set list.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
Right, They're not out there cleaning the floors or anything.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Yeah, no, But honestly, like, people paid way more for
Taylor Swift tickets, and like, if you're a huge Jojo
Siwa fan, this is a cool opportunity. It's not a
money grab, she says. They're only doing four of these
per stop.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Well, people are making a big deal about the money,
and I don't understand that. If you're willing to pay
to do something that's different than anyone else, that's just
called commerce. I don't understand why people are so like, well,
Taylor Swift doesn't do that. Well, Taylor Swift is at
a different level and if she wanted to, she could.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
She could charge ten thousand. She could.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
She could say, Hey, we're gonna have the twenty thousand
dollars ring here in the front, and we're gonna have
a party before and I'm gonna party with you and
we're all gonna decide the set list together. You know,
I do it the same every night anyhow.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Well, Taylor does not do it the same every night.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
Yeah, she does bring in a new song every night,
two new songs every night. Ooh, two songs. I remember
tours used to be like every night, it'd be different,
wouldn't be all planned out. But when you got something
that big, I guess that's how you gotta do it.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
Tory Amos still does that, and that's one of the
reasons I love going to see Tory often multiple times
on a tour, because you could go two nights in
a row and it will be completely different show.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
Pearl Jam does the same. Eddie writes the set list
a few hours before the show and then post it online.
I think it would suck because I mean, you know,
you've got fifteen to twenty albums and you're like, I
can't fucking remember how this song goes. Got Stone Gossard
back there trying to figure out how he played it
in the first place. It's cool though as a fan.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Well, I'm not mad at Jojo good on her. Also,
you messaged me on Instagram this video, which is funny
because I had actually independently seen it already. You sent
me a video of Jessica Simpson performing earlier this month
at south By Southwest And what did you say?
Speaker 1 (31:54):
What a talent?
Speaker 2 (31:55):
I actually thought she sounded good, did you yes?
Speaker 1 (31:58):
The clip I was watching, I was like, h this
is something.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
I don't know. I'm always rooting for Jessica. I think
she is talented, and I thought she sounded good. All right.
In more music related news, Sean Kingston remember him? He
had a hit. I think it was like in two
thousand and seven or two thousand and eight, a long
time ago. Now, oh no, you beautiful girls.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
Great song.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
That was a good song. It went number one on
the Hot one hundred. It was a real and a
big hit song. Yeah, big song. He has just been
found guilty of wire fraud, four counts of wire fraud
and an additional count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud.
His mother was also found guilty. And here's the craziest part.
(32:48):
They are now facing up to a hundred years in prison.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
Each charge carries a maximum sentence of years in prison.
So they were found guilty of five charges. And I
should have mentioned this was in federal court. The Feds
don't fuck around. It's shocking to me that he's facing
this much time because he's only accused of stealing a
(33:15):
million dollars worth of goods. He would defraud people like
a jeweler and a car company. And yes, a million
dollars is a lot of money for all of us,
but it's not a lot of money if you're stealing it.
That was my point. And to possibly face decades in
prison for just a million dollars, that seems excessive. But
(33:38):
I think he's gonna do some real time if he's
literally guilty of five counts and it's a twenty year
maximum for each, like, I think the minimum he'll face
is at least ten years, five years. I don't fucking know.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
It's up to a judge and intent, and they always
publish the maximum. No one ever serves the maximum unless
it's like some heinous crime. He's not a criminal, right,
That's what I mean. He'll end up doing three years,
and he'll get probation or something and I'll have to
pay back the money.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
All right, Well, three years seems sensible, but not more
than five, I would say. I don't know, it just
seems crazy. All right, let's take some calls, OK, you.
Speaker 3 (34:15):
Want to hear from us. It's JENNI, first time Florida.
I'm a Patreon subscriber. I loved the last episode because
you guys were just like it felt so like intimate.
It felt like they're in the room. You guys are
just chilling. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
It was great.
Speaker 3 (34:31):
The energy was so good. I love the content. I
don't know, like you guys have relationship has been I
don't know, like on a good level. And it gives
me a little dopamine fix. And I love it and
I love you guys much, love much A creepy. If
you are thinking about being a Patreon supporter, stop thinking
(34:52):
about it and go do it.
Speaker 2 (34:53):
Oh, thank you, that's the best patreon dot com slash
perez He'll yes.
Speaker 1 (35:01):
If that's not a commercial for the show, I don't
know what is.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
We love it. Thank you. Hi. My name's Kara.
Speaker 3 (35:07):
I'm calling from Seattle.
Speaker 4 (35:09):
I was listening to press talk about all Cleena's new
songs and trying to connect the dots to how they
are or are not about Hailey and Justin, and I
thought one thing that's interesting that nobody is pointing out
is that in her song Luviy Love Me, which we
all know is about Justin, she said at the end
of the song, now everything is closed and done, this
(35:32):
chapter is over. And then at the end of her
new song, how does it feel to be forgotten? She says,
now everything is said and done, everything is forgotten at
the end, which seems extremely similar and not like it's
a coincidence.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
Well that just you know, reaffirms what I said. It's like,
I think she's moved on and just strategically did this
on purpose to get people talking and shout out to her.
Because it worked, she didn't, unfortunately get the number one album.
We talked about that on a recent episode Playboy CARTI
did get number one, however, the projections for Selena increased.
(36:13):
It was allegedly she was originally going to debut to
ninety six thousand, which was great, but she ended up
doing one hundred and twenty k her first week. Love
that seventy one thousand in pure sales, so like vinyl
or CDs or whatever. So for an artist that's been
(36:33):
around releasing music for close to twenty years, she's been
doing music for that long. You know, her first hit,
that song Naturally, I think that came out in two
thousand and nine, sixteen years ago. So kudos to her,
you know, to have a career in pop that's so ageist,
and that run is more successful than Katy Perry's. That's
(36:54):
pretty wild to think.
Speaker 1 (36:55):
Well, she's out there promoting it too. I mean, she's
doing a lot of press and interviews and talking about it.
It's weird when she does interviews though I've been watching her.
She doesn't really open her mouth anymore.
Speaker 2 (37:04):
I know. I noticed that too, the way she notices so's.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
It's like she'll be like, you know, we we've went
on the new album and I really something to do
with love and Benny.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
And you know she's been open about being bipolar, so
it might be medication for her mental health.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
Oh okay, yeah, I mean I've interviewed her before and
she's perfectly normal.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Was an I think it might be that.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
Hmm, all right, let's wrap this poppy up.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
Well, we will see some of you on Thursday. Have
a wonderful week. Appreciate you all.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
Take care guys.
From Los Angeles, the phpaint.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
One and only, Perez Hilton.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Everybody, Welcome to the PHPA Booker here, Perez there, what
is coming up?
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Oh my god, we have too much show, So just
take this as a guide and not a promise. If
we don't get to everything I mentioned here at the teas,
we will discuss it all to be discussed still on
the Patreon Thursday at patreon dot com slash Perez Hilton.
All Right, Morgan Wallin over the weekend upset a lot
of people with his SML appearance. I'll explain why and
(00:44):
talk more. Justin Bieber has got many folks worried even more,
so I'll tell you the latest there. Also, Megan Fox's
baby daddies are at war. The Hogan family Hulk Hogan's
daughter and ex wife are beefing with each other publicly,
Ariana Grod versus her fans, plus Jessica Simpson, Sidney Sweeney,
Chapel Rowan Will Smith, Jojo Siwa, and maybe even more.
(01:07):
But let's just skip any chit chat and get right
to Morgan Wallen over the weekend, the country singer and
songwriter with a past, in fact not so far distant past.
Just in December, he pled guilty to reckless endangerment for
that incident where he threw a chair many stories up
(01:29):
above this, you know establishment in Nashville, and the police
were just right nearby and unlucky for him, but luckily
nobody got injured. He was sentenced to seven days in
a DUI detention center. It's unclear if he's served that
time yet, but he had enough time over the weekend
to perform on Saturday Night Live. And I don't watch
(01:52):
SNL religiously, but I've read that what he did is
pretty much unheard of, Like I don't think it's ever
been before. So if you don't watch SNL, you know,
they have the opening monologue and that's the same every show,
and then they have the goodbyes where the host, the
special host and the musical guests and the cast all
just stand there and they wave goodbye and they chitchat
(02:15):
with each other. And it's not very long. It's like
less than a minute.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Yeah, like twenty seconds of standing there and everybody's hugging
each other. It's like this forced good box.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
So Morgan walland hugs the host, Mikey Madison, the actress
who just won the Oscar and he walks off stage
through the audience front of house, breaking the camera. Not
breaking the camera, it's an expression like, you know, going
past the camera, and people thought he was pissed. And
what definitely contributed to that theory was that after he
(02:48):
left SNL, he posted a picture of his private plane
and he captioned it, get me to God's Country, implying
in the minds of many that perhaps SNL, where he
was for you know, the time that he was in
New York, is a godless country, or or that he was,
you know, not happy with his experience on SNL. So oh,
(03:11):
I'm so sick of this. Take me to where I
belong in God's Country.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
I'm sorry, but as someone from God's country, and if
I had never been to New York before, and I
was around a bunch of strangers all week and I
just posted I'm coming home to my family, friends, whomever,
and you just posted something like that, big deal. I mean,
he'd leave early, he did his goodbyes, he did his hug,
he did everything. I mean, I find this to be
(03:35):
much to do about nothing. And I kind of feel
like maybe the guys never watched the end of SNL
before because, by the way, who could fucking make it
to the end of SNL. I mean, the show has
been so god awful for so many years. Yes, there's
bits that live online, but I don't know if everyone
knows that you're supposed to stand there through the whole thing.
(03:55):
I don't know. Maybe it's a little bit rude, but
I just think that this there's a lot to do
about nothing.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
That's what I was going to say. I don't know
if it's a lot to do about nothing. I think
people interpreted as ungrateful. They just booked him on SNL,
which is perhaps easily one of the most coveted things
in music.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
And he did a great job, and he did his part,
and he was present for the entire week, and no
one has one complaint to say about him, and jeez,
he just peels out. He doesn't know anybody there, and
he wants to get home to whomever. I just don't
find this to be even a story. And I just
can't believe how much traction this has gotten. I mean, look,
if there was some beef and we heard some shit
(04:36):
that you know he pulled or did, or somebody else did,
or some sort of conflict happened. Okay, but I've heard
of none of this. I just heard that he he
pieced out and maybe he did it in rehearsals too.
I mean, who knows. I mean the whole God's Country.
I mean, that's hell. I would say that, you know,
get me back to God's Country. I mean, that's not
a big it's just a Southern expression.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Well, his team has begun damage control or quote damage control.
If there is any damage.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
If I was his team, I'd do nothing. I'd say nothing.
I would just let it die because the story's gone
by tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
They chatted to Variety and said that he meant nothing
by it, that he had a good time on SNL,
that that's just how he entered and exited the stage
all week long when he was rehearsing, And they claim
that there's not much more to it than that.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Yeah, I see the press really bored this weekend, is
what I see.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Well, No, once again, it's got nothing to do with
the press.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Well, I've just seen the story so many times, is
what I'm saying, and I just kind of feel like
it's much to do about nothing.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Because it was big on social media. The press picked
it up because it was trending across socials.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Doesn't make the Internet right. The Internet is generally wrong.
So I don't know. I once again I think this
is dead by tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I definitely do think it's rude of him.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Yeah, I mean, if you want to say it's rude, fine,
But I don't think the guy meant to be rude,
or maybe he did. He's just like I'm done, I'm
out of here, you know, and just pieced out. You know.
They have typically have a party at their snow. I'm
shocked that he didn't stay for that or want to
stay for that, But you know, you got a plane
out there at Teeterborough and you're like ready to go.
(06:13):
Like it just sounds like he had a week, it
was work. He just wanted to get home.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
That's that. Also, the story that'll be bigger today even
than that, is justin Bieber a lot of action over
the weekend on his ig account, which is interesting. He's
officially an old man. If he was, like, you know,
in his twenties, I feel like he'd be much more
active on TikTok and using that platform. But it seems
(06:38):
like Instagram is his platform of choice. So kudos to Instagram.
For not being culturally irrelevant yet or at all, because
you know, TikTok might fucking go away. I don't know.
It's supposed to be going back into ban on the
fifth of April. Oh really, Yeah, nobody's really talking about it. Wow,
we'll see what happens there.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
I'm guessing nothing.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Yeah. Donald Trump just wants to save the day. Oh
my god, I saw total aside the new Oh god.
Donald Trump keeps talking about running for a or being
president yet again a third time. And there is some speculation, well,
how could you do that? Well, and actually I literally
just saw this right before recording. But maybe, you know,
(07:18):
maybe a listener knows. There is a working theory that
if JD. Vance were to run for president and Donald
Trump as vice president and JD. Van steps down, that
Donald Trump would then become president. Right? Is that true?
Barack Obama could also be president again then too.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Not really, because the constitution sets See this whole thing
is like, first of all, I would have all of
these people locked up for treason. The Constitution is the
thing you swore to protect. And the Constitution says that
you can serve two terms. And that's what it says.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
How could Trump do it, but not Barack Obama.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Because Barack Obama would have to have somebody to run
in his steed, and he'd have to do the same thing.
He'd have to have somebody run and win, and they
would have to do the same thing.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
You know, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
But he's not going to do that because I believe
he cares about the Constitution. The Constitution is very clear
about two terms for a president. Once again, this administration
sidestepping the rules, trying to find the back door and everything.
Treason is what I call this. The Constitution says very
clearly what they wanted and the reasoning for it. And
(08:26):
this is the reason, because you don't want a dictator whatever.
That's a long time from now. And look at the guy.
He's going to be what eighty three by the eighty four,
he will probably be dead by then. Let's be honest.
It's not an easy job. So we'll say once again,
another distraction is all that it.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Is justin Bieber, all about Instagram. And you know, I
had this thought, he's still allegedly very religious but loves marijuana.
And you know, I grew up Catholic, but all Christian faith.
I don't think any of them condone or promote or
(09:03):
approve of marijuana use.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Well, there was no marijuana back in those days. It's
a plant. Who knew that a plant was gonna get
you high? Or I don't think religion has much to
do with it.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Growing up Catholic, that was a bad thing.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
It's just was called a drug. Everything fell under the
drug umbrella and drugs are bad and that's the message.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Or not even drugs, like in my Catholic school, they're like, oh,
you should not be drinking a lot or or whatever. Anyways,
he even this one post on his ig story. It
was just like, I don't know what do you call
it when you're like, I think it was like pulverized
weed or something.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Is it like hash? I don't know anything about the weed.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Yeah, I'm not a weed person. I don't like it.
Like I could tell it was weed, but it was
like ground up weed, I feel like. Anyways, he clearly
was on a lot of that, it seems. And then
he went live and was like, I don't even know
how to describe. He was weird. It was very a
weird live. It was just tie seemed like he was high.
I don't want to say that.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Okay, Well you said that there was some weed involved,
so it sounded like he was high.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Well, you know, I'm being very careful here.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
He also shared a photo of his wife, and people
are reading into this because he chose a song from Shahdi.
But the song is called Jezebel. If you don't know, Jezebel,
according to the Dictionary, that is quote an immoral woman
who deceives people in order to get what she wants.
(10:30):
Oh my god. A different dictionary says that Jezebel is
an impudent, shameless, or morally unrestrained woman. Oh my god,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Is there a Jezebel reference in the Bible as well?
Speaker 2 (10:45):
I feel like think, oh, yes, that's how it came
to be.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I don't know. Once again, he's got a trolling.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Well his wife is in on it, or there's something
going on because Haley over the weekend and followed him
on Instagram. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
After a certain point, is it really just trolling or
is something going on?
Speaker 1 (11:05):
You're right, it could be one of the other.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
I would like to believe it's trolling. But if you're
doing this much trolling, Like, bro, how desperate?
Speaker 1 (11:13):
What else do they have to do? She has not
announced a talent in her body, and he refuses to
use the talent he has except for on Instagram at
this point, Seriously, I'm not even like trying to be funny.
What the fuck else do they have to do?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Well? You know what I've said on a recent episode,
or maybe I didn't say it, but I'm saying it
now so many ways. Justin Bieber is like the male
Britney spears.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Oh god, now he's not there yet. I mean what,
he's posting some weird stuff online. He's not out there
doing anything dangerous yet yet.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Yeah, I don't know about that.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Well, that's everything with Bieber. Hopefully it's just trolling. Equally dumb,
I guess is the word Machine Gun Kelly and Brian
Austin Green are beefing publicly. And also this is so
se list of him. I would say that this is
an accurate assessment. Okay, Usually, if you're an A lister,
(12:12):
A listers never announce a baby's birth the same fucking
day the baby was born. But that's exactly what Machine
Gun Kelly did. Megan Fox gave birth to their daughter,
and that same day he put it out on Instagram.
She's finally here, our little celestial seed. It's a little
(12:34):
se list, but that's okay.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Or you're a parent that's excited that you just had
a kid. I don't really think that's sealsty or any listy.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
For celebrities, yes, it is. An A lister will never
announce their child, especially when they're still in the freaking hospital.
Or maybe not in the hospital. Maybe she did a
home birth. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
But still I never really thought of it, and I
wouldn't like think it's low brow, just that they did that,
and I think it's exciting. And look, when you're a guy,
let's be honest, you got nothing to do in this.
You're just a passenger. The woman does all the goddamn work.
So if you're sitting out in a lobby and your
board and you're in a person that communicates on Instagram
twenty four to seven every thought that you have and
(13:14):
what you had from breakfast, I mean, this doesn't even
seem shocking or weird to me.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
It's weird to me. It's not an a it's not
an A list move.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
He's not an a lister. He's machine Gun Kelly exactly.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
And she's not an A lister either.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
No, she's not either. He's probably c she's b as
a couple, they're a bee.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Yeah, definitely, that's an accurate assessment. I would say. Well,
that same day out, just hours before, he shared the
baby birth announcement, Megan Fox's ex husband and the father
of her three children, she finally got a girl. You
know her other kids are all boys. With Brian Austin Green,
(13:53):
machine Gun and Kelly had messaged Brian Austin Green, and
Brian Austin Green took a screenshot and posted it on
his Instagram story the message that MGK sent him. He
slid him to his DMS and said, stop asking when
our child is going to be born you the Feds.
Then an emoji of a rat and a police officer.
(14:13):
Quit calling TMZ.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
These are adults, by the way.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Yeah, alleged adults. Quit calling TMZ and focus on that
apology you owe me for speaking on my name in public.
You chose the wrong one to fuck with, mister child actor.
Go back to serial commercials. So then Brian shared that
and added some laughing emojis and said I didn't know
(14:40):
child actor was something bad LEO careful, he may be
coming for you next. Yeah, children, I know. I mean
I kind of like it because I love the content.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
I agree with you. It's weird, like half of me
is like, why would you even respond to something so
stupid and petty? But then again, I'm like, if you
got a funny life, knock yourself out. He outdid him.
If I had to judge this beef, I'd say that
Brian Austin Green won that round.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
But both I would say are messy. I mean, if
he wanted to take the high road, he would not
have shared that.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
You know what, it doesn't hurt anybody. There's no kids
involved in this, there's no anything that really affects anyone.
It's more just fodder for us dipshit. So if you
want to do that, fine, Once again, what else do
a bunch of c listers have to do? It's their currency, right,
So doesn't shock me.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
So in terms of messiness, you'd say machine gun Kelly
is messier.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Though, Yeah, but it's close, right, I mean, even responding,
you've just dropped yourself into the mud puddle yourself. But
if you want to gauge who has more mud on them.
I guess I'd have to say machine gun Kelly, he started.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
It, Okay, I would agree with that, and this one.
I also think there's a clear messy one. Linda Hogan,
who people of a certain age remember, not just because
she used to be married to Hulk Hogan, but in
the early two thousands, Hul Cogan had a very successful
reality TV show that ran for a few seasons. I
think he was on VH one, right.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
I think so, yeah, Hogan knows best or something, Yes, exactly.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
Linda Hogan took to social media, and she's older than
Justin Bieber, so she posted it on her Facebook account.
I love it. If we were talking about somebody in
their twenties, it'd be TikTok. Bieber's in his thirties, so
he's using the Instagram, and Linda Hogan is probably like
sixty something, so she's all about Facebook. Linda Hogan took
(16:40):
to Facebook to post a teary eyed video crying over
the fact that her daughter Brooke is estranged from her
and that she recently gave birth and she's said that
she's not involved in the children's life, and she claims
that Brooke is estranged from both her and the father.
(17:00):
Linda is no saint. She I'm sure did a lot
of things in the past. In fact, that's exactly what
Brooke Hogan alleged. She did respond publicly to her mother,
saying she didn't want to do this, but that she
felt that she had to to set the record straight.
She claims that she has her own reasons for going
no contact with both her mother and her father, and
(17:22):
that at various points throughout her life she had been
verbally and mentally abused by her parents, and often it
turned physical. She claimed they'd be degrading her and using her,
asking her to lie all sorts of things. Because if
you remember, I think it was like ten years ago,
(17:44):
Hulk Cogan was caught on tape saying racist things and
then Brooke defended him publicly. Linda started dating somebody almost
her daughter's age, which maybe she didn't like that, Like,
there's like a whole bunch of messiness. So Brooke Hogan
shared her truth, and then Linda Hogan did not like
(18:04):
hearing that. She responded back to her daughter, calling her
a narcissist and a drunk I'm like, okay, great, mom,
I know now who the problem is. Clearly, even if
your daughter is a narcissist or a drunk or both,
you putting her on blast like that tells me enough
that I need to know about you and let me
figure things out.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
I think there isn't a threshold of intelligence for reality shows,
and when they throw everybody in these pools, generally people
are dumb that are fucking on them. It's like they're
still in their minds. They're still on TV and they're
still performing for people their audience on the Facebook or whatever.
Linda Hogan starts it and then the daughter responds, which
(18:47):
that's what she wants as a response, and then she
takes a shit on her response. It's it's like it's
a vicious cycle and circle that they keep continuing in
and it's just funny.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
To her credit, Brooke has led a pretty normal life
for the last decade or so.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
In fact, I think in one of her responses she
talked about how she had to get like a normal
job for a while there because she didn't have money.
Hulk Hogan, Now everything is coming to light. I feel
like we've not heard the end of all this drama
because for a few reasons, it's kind of like why
Octomom is getting a lot of attention now because she
(19:28):
had ghosted the world for a while. The Hogans had
also basically, well not really. We did talk about Hull
Hogan on the podcast recently and how he showed up
at one of the wrestling things. He got booed.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
He was part of Trump's you know, I'm surprised he's
not the Secretary of Defense or something at this point. No,
he's been in the mix. Yeah, so he's for certain audiences.
He's been back. He never really went away.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
But then as a family, you know, as a family,
they haven't really been talked about in a while.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Right, Maybe they're priming the pump for something, or maybe
they think, and I mean Linda thinks that by doing
this she can garner some interest. When I believe that
the daughter probably wants nothing to do with it. Oh yeah,
I believe that the daughter is probably going Why did
I even respond? Because I knew this was the response
I was going to get. Why did I lower myself
(20:16):
into this cesspool? That sucks? Because it really is their family.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Well, we've learned that Hulk Hogan his new wife, that
they've only been married a couple of years. She is
a hardcore second generation scientologist. Bad news. That's all I
will say. Bad news. So I feel like what we
will be hearing more from them? All right? Gal Gadot
(20:41):
and Rachel Zegler. I thought it was Gal Gadot, Oh right,
Gal Gadot, Jesus, Gal Gadot and Rachel Zegler. Variety ran
a very informative article about all the snow white drama
and the reasons for a lot of the behind the
scenessness of it all. Apparently Gal and Rachel did get
(21:04):
along while filming. It wasn't until afterwards that things got
really bad, especially recently, especially because Rachel, in the comments
of Instagram on one post, called Gal a glorified beauty
pageant queen. And even if she was a beauty pageant queen,
that's so dismissive and you don't say that about a
(21:25):
fellow actor. But I don't care about that. What I
care about was this. This was the most glaring thing,
according to Variety, last summer, after Gal and Rachel went
to this Disney event called D twenty three, which is
kind of like Comic Con.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
It's the big Disney event that they put on.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
She thanked everybody for watching the trailer of Snow White
because it got a lot of views online. And then
she said and as always free Palestine, And people were
at Disney were very upset that, not necessarily that she
talked about Palestine, but that she did it on Twitter
in a thread where it was about the movie. Like,
(22:05):
you know, keep your political opinion separate from the film
you're promoting, is what people thought. So the producer of
the movie, Mark Platt, flew from Los Angeles to New
York to talk to her and to also try to
get her to delete that, and she didn't. She did
not delete the as always remember free Palestine. Then what
(22:25):
made it to me even more interesting is that the
son of Mark Platt, Jonah Platt, an actor, a NEPO baby,
the brother of Ben Platt. He also took to Instagram
to write a lengthy response to somebody calling him out
for what his dad did. He's like, yes, this happened.
He left his family to go talk to this actress
who got paid millions of dollars and blah bla bla
(22:47):
blah blah. And I think we mentioned on the Patreon
I think that she's going to be starring in a musical,
right so that's that's what she's doing. At the end
of this year, she's going to be a vida on
the West End in London. I do think that how
she handled this all will unfortunately negatively impact her career,
especially now that we know this right that her bosses
(23:10):
told her take that down and she didn't. She didn't
play ball, she didn't play the game. However, when I
was fucking twenty years old, I would have done whatever
I was wanted to do.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
You could see yourself doing the same thing.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Yeah, And I would have not taken it down, right.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
You would have buried your feet in the sand and
would have said, you know what, I'm dug in here.
And that's what's happening.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Still, even in my forties, I don't like being told
what to do, That's true. Who knows even if I
would have taken it down, I would know now I
would have definitely taken it down. If the big ball
I'm not an idiot, right like that thing. I mean,
I'm not the brightest. But also if I was doing
a big Disney movie, yeah, and the producer and also
(23:54):
she's burned not just a bridge with Disney, but this
guy Mark Platt is not a producer that's exclusive to Disney.
He also produced Wicked for Universal. Like, so this guy
does it huge movies. He's a huge, powerful, prolific producer.
And she's burned that bridge too.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Look in Hollywood, when the cat gets out of the
bag and people know you're a pain in the ass,
your career and your work will stop unless you are
insanely talented. I mean, you have to be next level talented.
And there's let's be honest, there's a handful of those
in Hollywood. Everybody else is just lucky. Yeah, Okay, So
if a boss is like you know, if it's between
(24:35):
two people and you're essentially the same and one's a
pain in the ass and one isn't, they're gonna go
with the one that isn't a pain in the ass.
And that's just the facts. That's life, and that's any job.
So if you want to go ahead and you want
to tweet and you want to be dug in on
things like that, it'd be like in twenty years you'll
look back and go, remember when I was an actor,
because that's what will end up happening.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Well, you can still be happy doing theater. Hey, Look, I.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Think if this was pre booked, and if they if
they had a whiff of this, and if they had
any idea that this could have been coming, they probably
would not have hired her. They probably would have looked elsewhere.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
I disagree. I think the theater community is much more
forgiving than regular show biz, and the fact that she's
been in some big movies from West Side Story to
now Snow White, that will always give her cachet in
true theater.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
If she could put asses in seats, I don't know.
I still think at the end of the day, if
you're pain in the ass, that'll catch up with you
and people will stop hiring.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
We will see over the weekend. On Friday, Ariana Grande
released a new version of her last album with six
new songs on it. And I heard them and they're
all just fine. None of them are bad, but it
all feels like okay, six more album tracks, like not
a single. One of those songs felt really special to
(25:53):
me or like they could be a single. But I thought, Wow,
she's gonna capitalize off of the Wicked momentum and at
least give a push for one of the new songs
to be a single and be a hit. I thought
she would want to hit, But no, because none of
these songs are a hit in my opinion. But there's
one song in particular that people are talking a lot
about because it's about her boyfriend. And let me read
(26:15):
to you some lyrics quickly. The songs called Hampstead, she says,
singing in the song, I left my heart at a
pub in Hampstead, and I misplaced my mind in a
good way, threw away my reputation but saved us more heartache. Yes,
I know it seems fucked up, and you're right, but
quite frankly, you're still wrong about everything so far off
(26:38):
your seat's nowhere near the table. But I find something
sweet in your peculiar behavior, because I think to be
so dumb must be nice. What makes you think you're
even invited? The doors are closed, with the lights off inside,
and all the while there's no one home, you're still outside.
I wonder why? What's wrong with a little bit of poison?
(26:59):
Tell me I would I rather feel everything than nothing?
Every time? Fear me stranger, a little bit of sugar danger.
I'd rather be seen and alive than dying. By your
point of view, you think you've read the book, I'm
still writing. I can't imagine wanting so badly to be right.
Guess I'm forever on your mind. I wonder why. Here
are the facts, the undisputable facts. Arianna Grande started her
(27:25):
relationship with her boyfriend while they were filming Wicked Okay,
also at the beginning of production. He was still with
his wife at the time, and she had just given birth,
and she flew all the way from the US to
the UK to be with him and support him and
so that their son could be there too. They were
(27:47):
still married, and she believed they were happily married. Then
that when from happily married to not happily married quickly
after she had just given birth and gone to this
other country to support his dreams. And then Ariana started
dating him, and she was also married at the time.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Yeah, they'd been separated, yes.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
But not Ethan Slater and his wife. So you know,
she doesn't want to clarify what people got wrong. But
those are all facts, right, those are all facts. So
what exactly did we get wrong? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
The whole thing is shocking to me that they're still together.
That's what blows my mind because typically when a relationship
is rooted in some sort of deception or lie or
half truth. It all outs for some reason. It just
typically does within the relationship and it falls apart. I'm
shocked at they're together, but you know, maybe they're just
two incredibly caved in human beings. I don't know. I
(28:42):
have no idea.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
And all of the facts that I shared that was
based on what Ethan Slater's ex wife said herself when
she wrote this article about being a therapist and having
her work be affected because her private life is now public.
And she didn't mention names, and she didn't really she
didn't spill too much tea, but she spilled enough enough
(29:04):
that I shared with you all the facts according to her,
So you know, it is what it is once again.
Pereza Damis, I'm like, you know, a week ahead of
everybody else on the Patreon I believe, or maybe it
was last Monday, but on a recent episode, we talked
about Jojo Siwa going on tour and how this time
around she was doing smaller venues because her last tour
(29:26):
three years ago, she was doing arenas. Now she's doing
House of Blues venues across the country or similar type
of layouts, you know, like a general admission area down
and then like seats above and et cetera, et cetera.
That was me five days ago. Now, over the weekend,
people were obsessing over the fact that Jojo was selling
(29:48):
a nine hundred dollars VIP ticket where fans could work
for her, although that was misconstrued. What it was described
at as was help her with the set. What she
meant by that, and she clarified, is help her decide
what songs are gonna be in the show. So help
her with the set list.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
Right, They're not out there cleaning the floors or anything.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Yeah, no, But honestly, like, people paid way more for
Taylor Swift tickets, and like, if you're a huge Jojo
Siwa fan, this is a cool opportunity. It's not a
money grab, she says. They're only doing four of these
per stop.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Well, people are making a big deal about the money,
and I don't understand that. If you're willing to pay
to do something that's different than anyone else, that's just
called commerce. I don't understand why people are so like, well,
Taylor Swift doesn't do that. Well, Taylor Swift is at
a different level and if she wanted to, she could.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
She could charge ten thousand. She could.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
She could say, Hey, we're gonna have the twenty thousand
dollars ring here in the front, and we're gonna have
a party before and I'm gonna party with you and
we're all gonna decide the set list together. You know,
I do it the same every night anyhow.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Well, Taylor does not do it the same every night.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
Yeah, she does bring in a new song every night,
two new songs every night. Ooh, two songs. I remember
tours used to be like every night, it'd be different,
wouldn't be all planned out. But when you got something
that big, I guess that's how you gotta do it.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
Tory Amos still does that, and that's one of the
reasons I love going to see Tory often multiple times
on a tour, because you could go two nights in
a row and it will be completely different show.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
Pearl Jam does the same. Eddie writes the set list
a few hours before the show and then post it online.
I think it would suck because I mean, you know,
you've got fifteen to twenty albums and you're like, I
can't fucking remember how this song goes. Got Stone Gossard
back there trying to figure out how he played it
in the first place. It's cool though as a fan.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Well, I'm not mad at Jojo good on her. Also,
you messaged me on Instagram this video, which is funny
because I had actually independently seen it already. You sent
me a video of Jessica Simpson performing earlier this month
at south By Southwest And what did you say?
Speaker 1 (31:54):
What a talent?
Speaker 2 (31:55):
I actually thought she sounded good, did you yes?
Speaker 1 (31:58):
The clip I was watching, I was like, h this
is something.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
I don't know. I'm always rooting for Jessica. I think
she is talented, and I thought she sounded good. All right.
In more music related news, Sean Kingston remember him? He
had a hit. I think it was like in two
thousand and seven or two thousand and eight, a long
time ago. Now, oh no, you beautiful girls.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
Great song.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
That was a good song. It went number one on
the Hot one hundred. It was a real and a
big hit song. Yeah, big song. He has just been
found guilty of wire fraud, four counts of wire fraud
and an additional count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud.
His mother was also found guilty. And here's the craziest part.
(32:48):
They are now facing up to a hundred years in prison.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
Each charge carries a maximum sentence of years in prison.
So they were found guilty of five charges. And I
should have mentioned this was in federal court. The Feds
don't fuck around. It's shocking to me that he's facing
this much time because he's only accused of stealing a
(33:15):
million dollars worth of goods. He would defraud people like
a jeweler and a car company. And yes, a million
dollars is a lot of money for all of us,
but it's not a lot of money if you're stealing it.
That was my point. And to possibly face decades in
prison for just a million dollars, that seems excessive. But
(33:38):
I think he's gonna do some real time if he's
literally guilty of five counts and it's a twenty year
maximum for each, like, I think the minimum he'll face
is at least ten years, five years. I don't fucking know.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
It's up to a judge and intent, and they always
publish the maximum. No one ever serves the maximum unless
it's like some heinous crime. He's not a criminal, right,
That's what I mean. He'll end up doing three years,
and he'll get probation or something and I'll have to
pay back the money.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
All right, Well, three years seems sensible, but not more
than five, I would say. I don't know, it just
seems crazy. All right, let's take some calls, OK, you.
Speaker 3 (34:15):
Want to hear from us. It's JENNI, first time Florida.
I'm a Patreon subscriber. I loved the last episode because
you guys were just like it felt so like intimate.
It felt like they're in the room. You guys are
just chilling. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
It was great.
Speaker 3 (34:31):
The energy was so good. I love the content. I
don't know, like you guys have relationship has been I
don't know, like on a good level. And it gives
me a little dopamine fix. And I love it and
I love you guys much, love much A creepy. If
you are thinking about being a Patreon supporter, stop thinking
(34:52):
about it and go do it.
Speaker 2 (34:53):
Oh, thank you, that's the best patreon dot com slash
perez He'll yes.
Speaker 1 (35:01):
If that's not a commercial for the show, I don't
know what is.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
We love it. Thank you. Hi. My name's Kara.
Speaker 3 (35:07):
I'm calling from Seattle.
Speaker 4 (35:09):
I was listening to press talk about all Cleena's new
songs and trying to connect the dots to how they
are or are not about Hailey and Justin, and I
thought one thing that's interesting that nobody is pointing out
is that in her song Luviy Love Me, which we
all know is about Justin, she said at the end
of the song, now everything is closed and done, this
(35:32):
chapter is over. And then at the end of her
new song, how does it feel to be forgotten? She says,
now everything is said and done, everything is forgotten at
the end, which seems extremely similar and not like it's
a coincidence.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
Well that just you know, reaffirms what I said. It's like,
I think she's moved on and just strategically did this
on purpose to get people talking and shout out to her.
Because it worked, she didn't, unfortunately get the number one album.
We talked about that on a recent episode Playboy CARTI
did get number one, however, the projections for Selena increased.
(36:13):
It was allegedly she was originally going to debut to
ninety six thousand, which was great, but she ended up
doing one hundred and twenty k her first week. Love
that seventy one thousand in pure sales, so like vinyl
or CDs or whatever. So for an artist that's been
(36:33):
around releasing music for close to twenty years, she's been
doing music for that long. You know, her first hit,
that song Naturally, I think that came out in two
thousand and nine, sixteen years ago. So kudos to her,
you know, to have a career in pop that's so ageist,
and that run is more successful than Katy Perry's. That's
(36:54):
pretty wild to think.
Speaker 1 (36:55):
Well, she's out there promoting it too. I mean, she's
doing a lot of press and interviews and talking about it.
It's weird when she does interviews though I've been watching her.
She doesn't really open her mouth anymore.
Speaker 2 (37:04):
I know. I noticed that too, the way she notices so's.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
It's like she'll be like, you know, we we've went
on the new album and I really something to do
with love and Benny.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
And you know she's been open about being bipolar, so
it might be medication for her mental health.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
Oh okay, yeah, I mean I've interviewed her before and
she's perfectly normal.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
