Did you ever wonder if Valentine's Day is really necessary or just a clever marketing ploy? Join us as Heather and I meander through the tangled webs of love, nostalgia, and the good old days. We kick off with fond memories of our teenage escapades, relishing arcade adventures and carefree youth. Fast forward to today, we share some laughs about a recent sports game where the green team emerged victorious and poke fun at the quirky superstitions we followed. Despite the excitement, we decide to skip the city's bustling celebration, as the idea of battling logistics, weather, and crowds becomes less tempting with age.
As the spirit of Valentine's Day looms, we shift gears to chat about the holiday's significance and whether love deserves a designated day. Reflecting on iconic celebrity couples from yesteryears, we reminisce about Brad Pitt's tousled hair and Gwyneth Paltrow's youthful reflections. Our banter takes a spirited turn, sharing opinions on classic films, like "12 Monkeys" and "Oceans 11," and exploring the highs and lows of celebrity relationships. From Johnny Depp's timeless allure to Madonna and Sean Penn's dramatic tales, we weave our own humorous anecdotes and insights into this glitzy narrative.
To wrap things up, we journey through the fascinating realm of Hollywood romances and pop culture. Revel in the nostalgia of "Spy Kids," the magnetic charm of Antonio Banderas and Harrison Ford, and the unforgettable escapades of celebrities like Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson. As we toast to self-love this Valentine's Day, we encourage treating yourself to something special and invite you to follow our podcast journey on social media for more stories, laughs, and surprises. Whether you're strolling down memory lane or keeping up with today's buzz, tune in and let us entertain you with another delightful episode of Like Whatever. #genx #90s #celebrity #love

There was a game on the sportsball game.
The sports ball game, Correct.
Correct, it was a red team anda green team, I heard, and the
green team dominated the redteam.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
How about that?
How about that?
How about it?
That was a great game.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
It was Like my husband said it was the easiest
game we watched all year.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
It really was.
It was a complete and totaldomination, left, right, center.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Yeah, yeah, I mean, I still didn't feel comfortable
the whole time, the whole time.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
No, you can't ever feel comfortable in that
situation.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
No, I was even carefully not jinxing like oh my
god, are we gonna win?
Like nope.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
None of those words came out of my mouth I think my
mom did jinx the um shut out.
Oh yeah, because she said lookslike we're gonna and I was like
do not finish that sentence.
And she said looks like we'regoing to.
And I was like do not finishthat sentence.
And she said looks like we'regoing to have a shot.
And I was like I told you notto say it.
What's wrong with you, lady?
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Well, now we know why that didn't happen.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Blame it on my mom everybody I don't know, she's
hard to keep quiet.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
So yeah, our city of Philadelphia will be celebrating
on Friday, the day this comesout.
We've kind of collectively Ithink everyone we know has all
kind of decided we're not goingto do it again.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
I can't.
It's too much of a day, it'stoo much.
It's cold, it's snowed here andI've been tromping through snow
all day and I just the merethought of it just is exhausting
.
Yeah, it's such a day.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
It is.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Like I said, if it was like 20 minutes away, sure
I'd be all about it.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Yeah, it's like when the Firefly Music Festival used
to be here in Dover, like it was10 minutes from my house.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Yeah, okay, yeah, I'll go for all four days
because I can go home and showerand go to bed and get up and
cook a real meal.
Yeah, I just sure.
No, thanks, I can't.
Though when we went, when wewent the last one, it was enough
for me yeah, it really was.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
I agree with that I I mean really, I don't think I
have any urge at all.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
I don't Like, I do, but I don't Like if I could just
teleport there and thenteleport out immediately.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Like, the fan in me thinks I should be more excited
and be considering going.
But the old lady in me is likemeh, you're good, it's a real
struggle.
You're good, trust us on thisone, you're good.
The old lady is a real struggle, yeah, and she's usually right,
she takes over nine out of tentimes.
She has a lot of wisdom.
She has a been there, done thatattitude.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Yes, and she says you remember the last time we
didn't have that much fun, thelast time?
No, we didn't.
So yeah, it's just too manypeople in one.
Yeah, yeah, a lot, it is a lot.
I did it the once.
I told my friend at work thatis a young man's game right
there.
And I am not a young mananymore.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Yeah, yeah, and it was just different last time.
Plus also for me, because mykids were teenagers.
My sister-in-law lived in SouthJersey at the time and now she
lives in Arizona.
So you know it was go up to herhouse the night before, spend
the night, get up in the morning, get the train, and that was
(04:16):
kind of like best case scenarioof how to do the day.
And you know she's not thereanymore and it just yeah.
My kids are grown, they're likeI don't, I don't.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
I don't want to be around a bunch of drunk people.
I don't want to be in a crowd.
I don't want to get pushedaround.
If I were to go, it would bedown at the stadium in out boom
buying, gone right out by 12 andI bet even that's not as simple
as you?
Oh, I know, it's not, I'm just.
I have no doubt that becauseyou're absolutely correct.
That would not as simple as youthink it is.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Oh, I know it's not.
I have no doubt that it.
You're absolutely correct.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
That would be the best way to do it, because I
heard yesterday, today oryesterday they announced that
the parking lots will not beopen at the stadium so yeah that
doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
No, it doesn't.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
I know why, because it was going to take too much
police presence in the parkinglot that they needed elsewhere.
So so I was like, well, fuck, Iknow why.
Because it was going to taketoo much police presence in the
parking lot that they neededelsewhere.
So so I was like, well, allright, well, that makes sense,
fuck that shit.
There goes that idea yeah, plus,I didn't get, I didn't take off
, and uh, I'm around the secondquarter, my, uh, my postmaster
(05:21):
text leave denied.
So I said, well, and mypostmaster text leave denied.
I said well, I guess I'm goingto call out Nice.
But yeah, what else did you dothis?
Speaker 1 (05:31):
week.
Well, today we had a snow day,because it snowed all night last
night.
Well, I should say the state ofDelaware employees had a snow
day not the post office.
No, not the post office, um.
So we started watching thediddy documentary on hbo and
(05:53):
discovery plus and I think theid channel run it.
Oh, he's a piece of shit.
Yeah, I mean it's awful.
It's really hard to watch, um,but in the same context it's.
It's a good thing because youcan see the trauma in these
people.
Like, these are not paid actors, these are people who have been
through something and the factthat they can now come out and
(06:13):
share their story and bevalidated and let the world know
what happened to them is prettypowerful.
Right, I mean, he was awful andit's another one of those cases
they tell you about hischildhood.
I mean he was awful and it'sanother one of those cases they
tell you about his childhood.
His dad was shot when he was 33because he was involved in I
(06:33):
almost want to say mafia typestuff.
I can't remember that part, butanyway.
So, raised by a single mom inHarlem, so she raised him to be
tough because she knew beingsoft there would he'd never make
it.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Right.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
But again, as I say, you know your upbringing.
It's a reason, not an excuse.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Not an excuse.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
So he didn't have to grow up to be an awful person,
but he was just so power hungryand just so like get to them
before they get to you.
That's basically his mom waslike don't come home telling me
you got hit.
Like you better have hit himback twice as hard.
If somebody takes somethingfrom you, you take more than
that from them, and that's whathe was taught growing up.
(07:17):
So it was a perfect storm ofand he was extremely talented.
I mean, you can't deny that,whether you like his music or
not, he built a billion dollarlifestyle.
He sure did so he knew somethinghe was doing, but he sure did
not treat people nice ever likeever I mean most of the time
(07:39):
when you're at that level.
You haven't treated people verynice anyway, yeah, and that
that sucks because it doesn'tneed to be that way.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Nice doesn't get paid .
It should, though I am proof inthe pudding that that is not
true.
Nice does not.
I shouldn't say that I'm notvery nice, but good-hearted, I
suppose.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Usually, yeah, doesn't win any races.
That is true For some reason.
Yeah, I'm going to.
Before we get into it, I'm justgoing to remind everyone, while
you're paying attention if youactually are paying attention
that you can like, share, rateand review.
You know, it's the little starsthere.
(08:27):
It it makes a difference.
It moves people up, movespeople down, whatever.
You should just check it out onyour app, especially if you use
apple.
It's very important on apple.
It is from what I've been toldby the.
Yeah, so do that right nowplease do it now, please.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
She said she wasn't nice.
I'm not, she actually is supernice I'm not she likes to play
like she's tough.
She's only mean to people whodeserve it everybody deserves
fair enough.
Uh, yeah, so this week, uh,this episode will drop on friday
(09:12):
, february 14th.
What is that day?
Um, the day of love, if I canjust start this with.
Um, first of all, saintvalentine's day is not a
hallmark holiday no, we foundyeah because it started in like
14-something, so Hallmark wasnot a thing then.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
As far as I know, it wasn't.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Maybe who knows?
But also I know a lot of peoplehate on Valentine's Day and
that's fine, you can have youropinion, I hate on.
Valentine's Day.
My opinion is what is so wrongwith celebrating a day of love?
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Because, it should be every day.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
You're the worst.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
I know, because I just think it's stupid.
For one day, you should just benice to your significant other
every day.
Every day should be Halloween.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Yes, that's absolutely true, but it extends
past your significant other,like your kids galentine's day
that's the dumbest fucking thingI've ever.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Galentine's day, like let's what?
Let's just make the holidayeven stupider all right, cranky
pants, let's move on.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
So, since this will be dropping on valentine's day,
I decided, uh, that we're gonnafuck around and find out about
Gen X celebrity couples, uh-oh,yeah.
So some of these I remembered,some I did not, yeah, it was
just.
There was a lot I was goingthrough like, wow, oh yeah, oh
(10:40):
yeah, okay.
So the first one we're going tostart with is Brad Pitt and
Gwyneth Paltrow.
Do you remember when they dated?
Speaker 2 (10:48):
I did.
Do you remember their matchinghaircuts?
I don't remember the matchinghaircut, though.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
I didn't.
But then I saw the picture andthen I remembered and yeah so,
anyone, any way, who can everforget the infamous matching
haircuts Me?
Who can ever forget theinfamous matching haircuts Me?
The painfully attractive pairfirst began dating while filming
Seven and quickly became thegolden couple of the 90s.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
What's in the box?
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Do you think Brad Pitt's handsome?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
No.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Okay, do you think Gwyneth Paltrow's pretty?
Speaker 2 (11:20):
No.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Oh, all right, I am the opposite on both of those.
Okay, agree to disagree.
Yeah, that right, I am theopposite on both of those.
Okay, agree to disagree.
Yeah, that's what we usually do.
So, though they were engagedand once sported identical looks
, their romance came to an endin 1997, with the Goop founder
later taking blame for itsdemise during an interview with
Howard Stern.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Oh, hold on, Let me just first say yeah, okay, so
back to Brad Pitt.
Okay, I'm not a fan of Brad.
I do like Seven mostly.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Are you on Angelina's side?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
No, okay, I don't care about either one of them.
Oh, okay, no, I'm not.
I dislike Angelina even morebecause of the whole Jennifer
Aniston thing.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Yes, exactly, I digress, right, I digress.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Right?
No, so I have mixed feelingsabout Brad Pitt.
I don't hate Brad Pitt as muchas I hate Tom Cruise, correct,
but I don't particularly carefor him.
But then I remember the moviesthat I like that he's in, and
there's one movie in particularthat I think is a phenomenal
(12:25):
performance by him and I feellike he should have gotten
probably more.
Maybe not an award for it, butlike.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
I have so many of his movies running through my head
and I'm not sure which oneyou're going to say it's with
Bruce Willis.
Is that seven?
No 12 Monkeys, monkeys okay, Iprobably saw that it's set in
philadelphia.
Yeah, I'm sure I saw it.
If I did, I saw it once it's.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
It wasn't a very popular movie but it is a really
really good movie.
Um, most I like bruce willis,so, yeah, me too, um, and I like
anything set in philadelphia,so, but it is he plays um
mentally ill and he does thisthing with his eye through the
whole movie.
(13:14):
That I just don't understand.
How he does it and it's it waslike a 90s movie, so, or early
2000s maybe.
So it's not cgi, it's, it'sdefinitely him, and just the way
he is like he's very like, Imean it's very brad pitt, but
it's, it's, it's a great, it's,it is a good movie.
So I I come and go with bradpitt, of course I love seven
(13:36):
like there's no better movie onearth than I took a world
religion class in college and itwas a super fun class.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
It was just on weekends, but he had us watch
seven years in tibet.
That was the first time I'dseen that.
That's also a very good movie.
I haven't seen that either thatwas a good one, um, and then my
all-time favorite is going tobe oceans 11 I do like oceans 11
I love.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
That's why I say I come and go with him Like I.
Just I can't decide how I feelabout him.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
I think yeah, he and Clooney in that movie were just
perfect.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
And he did a lot in Katrina for Katrina.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Are you going to rethink your Brad Pitt stance?
No, okay good, you're too oldfor it to be changing your mind,
like, like that, I don't changemy mind.
Back to Gwyneth Paltrow.
She told Howard Stern in aninterview that she was a kid.
She was 22 when they met.
It's taking me until 40 to getmy head out of my ass.
(14:35):
You can't make that decisionwhen you're 22 years old.
You know, I think I was a kidand I wasn't ready and he was
too good for me, whatever, itjust didn't work out.
You don't have to be so dramatic.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
I know it's Hollywood .
They very rarely work out.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Okay, so next we have Justin Timberlake and Britney
Spears.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
This was a horrible idea just all the way around.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
The pictures just don't even look like a good
thing back then.
They didn't look happy.
So Justin Timberlake was abreakout star of the biggest boy
band in the world.
She was the most famous popstar in the world.
If pop music were prom, Britneyand Justin were its ultimate
king and queen From the infamousmatching denim outfits, which
(15:19):
is what I always picture when Ithink of the two of them to the
adorable nicknames Pinky andStinky, which I don't remember,
that.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
No.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
The young couple's four year relationship, which I
don't think I knew it was thatlong either.
No 1998 to 2002 and dramaticbreakup has helped define both
of their careers.
It's legacy immortalizedforever.
With cry me a river,timberlake's hit song about the
devastating split, the musicvideo featured a Brittany
(15:46):
lookalike and seeminglyconfirmed the cheating rumors.
I was kind of in denial.
Spring Spears would later say,seeing the video for the first
time during an interview withDiane Sawyer, who also asked if
the infidelity allegations weretrue.
I'm not technically saying he.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
You didn't finish that sentence.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
I didn't yep.
So, who knows, I'm going to saythat.
She said it without saying it,or you can just cut all that out
.
This one is hidden here,special for you I saw, I noticed
.
Johnny and Winona this one.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care, I don't
care, I don't care is it toolate for them?
Yeah, is it?
Speaker 1 (16:31):
yeah, it is, and it isn't because I know she's come
out with his whole trial withthat nut job um she did back him
, oh yeah, and she stood shesaid there was absolutely no way
, and that's true and so did hisex-wife.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
So I think I think it would not hurt my feelings if
they were to ever, but I thinkhe has gone, probably too far
into a hole well, she's not themost stable thing.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
She's not, and I think that's the problem I think
he's too far in toxic for eachother.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
I think that they are one of those couples that you
remember that will smith movieum that he was the uh superhero.
Oh, hitch or not hitch.
What the hell was the name ofthat movie?
Speaker 1 (17:25):
hutch no it wasn't hutch anyway, I know what you're
talking, yeah and him, and thatgirl could never be together
because, it was they, they wouldrestore.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I really think that that would be johnny and wanona.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
I think they just and hopefully they're best friends
to this day.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
I do believe they are and I I do think that they are
just the cutest.
I mean, they're, they are, theyare.
If you are goth, they are yourdream goth relationship yes,
that is true.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
So winona forever.
That was the tattoo depp gotduring his whirlwind romance
with rider 18, with the youngpair quickly becoming the it
couple after meeting at theGreat Balls of Fire premiere in
1989 and going on to star inEdward Scissorhands together,
Depp would later tell there'sbeen nothing in my 27 years.
(18:19):
That's comparable to thefeeling I have for Winona.
Their romance would play outuntil 1993 when they ended their
engagement and Depp infamouslychanged his tattoo to read why
no Forever.
Do you remember that?
I do.
Ryder later called her splitfrom Depp her first major
(18:40):
heartbreak telling Ellen in2009,.
I think it was really ironicbecause everybody else just
thought I had everything in theworld.
Heartbreak telling Ellen in2009,.
I think it was really ironicbecause, like everybody else,
just thought I had everything inthe world.
You know, I had no reason to bedepressed.
Everything was sort of at itspeak, but inside I was
completely lost.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
I mean for number one , she was so young, so young.
I mean yeah, and he's just sounstable.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
It's just not a no, but I think maybe one day in
goth heaven they rule over theentire land.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
And you'll be one of their minions.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Look, I will follow Johnny Depp to the ends of the
earth, always, have, always will.
I don't care.
I like a bad boy, apparently,and he is the baddest of all the
bad boys, and I don't even he.
I don't care how old he looks,or he is the most perfect human
(19:40):
being ever put on this planet.
You can fight me to the deathon that one.
I don't care, johnny Depp isthe most perfect, he's just
perfect.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Anyway, our next one is Robert.
Downey Jr and Sarah JessicaParker.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Only Tim Burton likes him more than me.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Before.
The Sex and the City starmarried Matthew Broderick in
1997 and the Avengers frontmanmarried wife and producer
partner Susan in 2005,.
The A-listers were in atumultuous seven-year
relationship from 1984 to 1991,which was defined by his
substance abuse issues.
(20:24):
I don't remember them beingtogether.
When I saw the picture Iremembered that.
But to say they had aseven-year relationship, like
definitely, although in 84, Iremembered that, but to say they
had a seven-year relationshiplike definitely, although in 84,
I was 11.
Yeah, so maybe it was a big dealbefore I was old enough to
realize.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
You know what's a good movie with her?
Girls just want to have fun.
Her and Helen Hunt Mm-hmm, Ilove.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Helen Hunt.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
I love Helen Hunt and I love that movie.
Mm-hmm, I love Helen Hunt.
I love Helen Hunt and I lovethat movie, because we should
seriously do an episode aboutthose dance shows from the 80s.
I almost got to go to onebecause they film them in
Philadelphia and there was oneright by my aunt's house very
cool Dance Party USA let's see.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
So I was so selfish, I like to drink.
I had a drug problem and thatdidn't jibe with sarah jessica,
because it is the furthest thingfrom what she is.
Robert downey jr, who got soberin 2002, later told parade.
She provided me a home andunderstanding.
She tried to help me.
She is a force of nature, so itwas very nice.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
But didn't her and Matthew Broderick kill somebody.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
No, that was him and Jennifer Gray.
Oh, jennifer, yep, they datedfor a little bit too.
I think that was one I didn'tput in here, but I did see it.
So it's not like I rememberthat off the top of my head, but
yes, I should have just leftthat and sounded smart.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
But anyway, I'm looking back not to put them in
here because, they murderedsomeone accidentally yeah, it
was a car accident.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
The two of them were in the front seat and there were
passengers in the back seat,and the passengers in the back
seat died and it was found to beMatthew Broderick's fault.
Yes, see, I didn't put it inhere, but it's a good thing I
read it.
Looking back on their romance,sarah Jessica Parker told people
that while she had to find thecourage to walk away, she also
(22:24):
doesn't regret any of it.
I don't resent the time spent.
It seems to me like RobertDowney Jr has always been a
pretty solid guy.
He just had an addiction issue,so it sounds like you know a
lot of people stuck by his sidebecause they must have known who
he was on the inside not justwho he was.
as an addict, I like RobertDowney Jr.
(22:45):
Yeah, I love him.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Yeah, I think he's great the pickup artist with
Molly Ringwald, mm-hmm.
Molly.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
All right.
So pop icon Madonna and Oscarwinner Sean Penn wed during a
top secret ceremony in Malibu,california, in 1985.
The couple earned the monikerthe Poison Pens because of their
volatile relationship, whichincluded allegations of abuse
that both parties have denied.
While they were together, thecouple made the box office flop
(23:19):
shanghai surprise in 1986 andmadonna dedicated her album from
that same year, true blue, toher.
Then hubby, I actually have ablue vinyl 45 oh wow of true
blue that I bought when it cameout I had her book in french.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Oh fancy, I don't know where it is now.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
It's probably worth a lot of money probably three
years later she filed fordivorce.
But in her 1991 film, madonna,truth or dare, when asked the
identity of her, the love of herlife, the singer responded my
whole sean, my whole heart, mywhole love.
Probably it was sean.
(24:05):
In 2000 madonna married guy rie, who happens to be my favorite
movie producer, and in 1996,penn married Robin Wright Jedi.
I always think of the PrincessBride when I see her.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
It's funny because when any of those polls it's
like who is the biggest villainin all of the movies, she is
always number one, with Jenny.
And I'm like you're damn right,she was horrible yep, but both
of those couples are nowdivorced oh really yes, so this
was one I didn't remember, butsince we had talked recently, I
know.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
When I saw that I was like hold up what tom cruise
met share at sean penn and andMadonna's wedding in 1985.
At the time the risky businessstar was 22 years old, 16 years
younger than the Moonstruckactress.
She has always liked them young.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
She does.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Sparks didn't really fly until the two reunited at
the White House event benefitingpeople with dyslexia, which
both Cruz and Cher battle with.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
So yeah, that was was that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
I can't even picture that in my head.
Like that doesn't make anysense, do you?
Speaker 2 (25:18):
think maybe scientology is the reason they
are not.
I can't imagine that sharewould, yeah, definitely vibe
with the scientology.
Hell, no nonsense, I don't knowShe'd be like fuck you.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
In 2013, Cher told Andy Cohen on Bravo's Watch what
Happens Live she was crazy forCruz for a little minute.
He is a little guy and shecalled him one of her top five
best lovers.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
It's not what I've heard about Tom Cruise.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
It's not what they say on the corner.
Not what they say.
She was actually with Cruisewhen she helped come up with the
barely there look she wore in1988 when she took home the
Academy Award for Best Actressin Moonstruck, and we all
remember that outfit With thefeathers right.
Yeah, the black bodysuit yeah,barely there.
(26:10):
This one I remembered.
Yes, like all of MichaelJackson's personal relationships
, his connection to BrookeShields wasn't conventional.
The two met at the 1981 Oscarsand though he seemed very into
her, it was more of a friendshipin Shields' eyes.
In 2009, she revealed toRolling Stone that the King of
(26:30):
Pop proposed to her on multipleoccasions.
I would say you have me for therest of your life.
You don't need to marry me.
I'm going to go on and do myown life and have my own
marriage and my own kids, andyou'll always have me, shields
said.
I think it made him relax.
He didn't want to lose thingsthat meant something to him.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
That really kind of gets in his head a little bit.
I have a lot of feelings aboutMichael Jackson.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
I do too, and I don't know how to feel about him at
the same time.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Yes, my feelings of Michael Jackson are probably not
very politically correct of me.
So I just think look, if youfucking sent your kid to spend
the weekend with michael jacksonafter all of those allegations,
you pimped your fucking kid.
(27:26):
Plain, andain and simple.
Yes, whether you believe it ornot.
And then you want to sue.
No, you pimped your, you soldyour child, you did.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Exactly.
But, I also feel like, see, Idon't know what happened.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
So I'm just basing this on my opinion.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
But he was robbed of his childhood and he was very
childlike as an adult with theamusement park at his house and
the zoo and all those things andI wonder if him having those
kids sleep in the bed was reallyjust a childlike sleepover type
thing for him.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
And you know, I'll never know.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
None of us will ever know.
We don't know.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
But the thing of it is is that maybe it was innocent
, maybe it wasn't, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
But simply, if you knew, that there were, if you
even thought there was a chance.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
If there were allegations and you simply
thought I'm going to let my kidsstay here?
You just wouldn't do it, unlessyour money is more important to
you.
Right, and I'm sorry, butthat's how I feel about it Right
.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
It would be like letting your 15-year-old
daughter go out with R Kelly.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
And then being surprised but at least we know,
yeah.
And then I want to turn aroundand sue them Right.
Well, you sold your kid.
Yeah, I want to turn around andsue him.
Well, you kind of you sold yourkid?
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Yeah, yeah, I agree with that.
I agree that the parents werein the wrong, but I also wonder
the extent of what his abuse.
Was he a pedophile or was hejust?
Yeah?
So I don't know if he's apedophile or if he was just
stuck in a state of being a10-year-old, or Perpetually?
Yeah.
(29:11):
So who knows?
But he had a tortured lifeanyway.
But again, reasons not excuses.
Yeah, so on to the next one.
Oh, I forgot to mention too.
Most of this information wasfound on E Online today, sorry.
According to page six, kimBasinger was so crazy for Prince
(29:31):
.
Did you remember this one?
Speaker 2 (29:33):
I do remember this, yes.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
I did not In 1989 that she relocated to his
hometown of Minneapolis to bewith him.
Rumor has it, the two made analbum titled Hollywood Affair
that was never released.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
I can imagine it wasn't released.
I can't imagine it's anythingworth hearing.
Well, I wouldn't hear anythingfrom Prince, but With Kim
Basinger.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
I don't imagine it wasn't released.
I can't imagine it's anythingworth hearing.
Well, I wouldn't hear anythingfrom Prince, but With Kim Basin
I don't know, yeah, you're right.
In 2015, Basinger discussed herrelationship with Prince with
the Daily Beast.
I really don't have boundaries,so I enjoyed that time of my
life.
She said it was a reallyspecial moment in time and I
have great memories memories andI don't put a lot of
restrictions on myself.
(30:12):
Let's just put it that way Ifthere's someone I connect with,
we'll go on these rides together.
I didn't really get like, wasshe saying, I dated black guys.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
No, I think it was probably more of an open
situation.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Yeah, I don't think Prince was ever monogamous, or
ever pretended to be monogamous.
Speaker 2 (30:30):
It was probably more of an open situation.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Yeah, I don't think Prince was ever monogamous or
ever pretended to be monogamous.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
I don't think Prince turned down sleeping with
anybody.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
I didn't At any point for any reason.
And nobody turned him down.
No, I don't, I know I wouldn'thave, but anyway I would have
made him leave his seals on,though, learning about Nicole's
kinks today.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
No kink shaming kids.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Speaking of Arsenio Hall, his birthday was today.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Yesterday or yesterday?
Speaker 1 (31:02):
Yeah, I think he turned like 78 or something
crazy.
Like something weird Don't saythat again.
Really weird.
So anyway, he met Paula Abdul,which I do remember this one, I
do remember that who was workingas a choreographer on the set
of the 1988 movie coming toamerica, classic.
The two dated from 1988 to 1989and he was not has nothing but
(31:25):
praise for his famous ex in 2009, the same year, rumors
circulated the two might berekindling their romance.
Hall told People the most funI've ever had in any phase of my
life was with a woman namedPaula.
All right, I didn't say thatexactly word for word, but you
got the gist.
(31:45):
I did the wine's kicking in.
Oh, by the way, I don't think Imentioned last week.
I survived dry Januaryuaryeither, and I'm pretty proud of
me.
She did pat on the back, I didit.
Good job, but yeah, now I'mback to boozing, so yeah that's
why I'm screwed up, she'slearning a word we were together
because we wanted to be.
Despite their apparentcompatibility, those crazy kids
(32:05):
couldn't make it work and theformer lakers girl cozied up
with Full House's John Stamosbefore marrying Estevez in 1992.
I remember her with Estevez.
I don't think I remember.
John Stamos.
Hall, meanwhile, has never beenmarried, though they were both
using drugs and alcohol at thesame time.
(32:25):
Drew Barrymore and CoreyFeldman met on the set of an
after-school special, ironicallytitled 15 and Getting Straight,
in 1989.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
So can we just go on a tangent about poor little
Corey Feldman?
He has completely gone off thedeep end.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Is he still alive?
Speaker 2 (32:43):
Yes, oh, I have I.
He has a band and he thinks hehas the greatest band.
Like it's, just it's.
I mean, it is hard to watch.
You're so secondhandembarrassed for Corey that
you're just like Corey, pleasejust sit, Stop it, Just stop.
I mean, first of all, he'sstill doing the Michael Jackson
(33:04):
dancing.
Wow, you are 50 some years old,Corey.
Let it go, yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:10):
It was cute when you were 10.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Yeah, it's not anymore no.
He still wears like a wholeleather.
I mean, he's got the pony.
You Google it sometime and youwill.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
I don't think I want to.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
It's awful.
It is awful.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
It is awful.
You know what's awful?
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Is they were filming a show called 15 and getting
straight and they picked the twobiggest child drug addicts.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
Yeah, in hollywood well, I mean they could play it.
They would play a convincingdrunken drug addict wouldn't
they?
That is true, but not the rolemodels that you're looking for
in that kind of anyway, thoseafter-school specials were dumb
anyway.
The young lovers even attendedthe 1988 Oscars together, but
they split up after nine monthsof dating In Feldman's 2013
memoir Choreography.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
Oh God, I mean say I'm telling you Corey move on,
bless his heart yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
He said the relationship ended because he
was heavily into drugs and shewas trying to stay sober.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
I mean that makes sense.
I think Corey might still be ondrugs.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
Drew had been an addict since she was like four.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
I know.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
That's insane.
Yeah, though Feldman is nolonger in the public eye,
although apparently he has aband he is in a band.
Barrymore has had a number ofhigh profile romances with
actors like Ed Norton, LukeWilson and Justin Long.
She has two daughters withex-husband Will Kopelman, Rocky
(34:39):
Star.
I loved this relationship.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
I wanted them to be together forever.
This one's a great, I think.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
Her and I share a birthday oh nice Rocky star
Sylvester Stallone becamesmitten with then 22 year old
Danish actress Bridget Nielsenshortly after she made her
feature film debut in Red Sonjain 1985.
According to People, it wasNielsen who made the first move,
sending Stallone a provocativephoto asking to meet him while
(35:12):
they were both staying at thesame hotel in New York City okay
, so can we just talk about alsohow much it would go into
making and sending a provocativephoto in the 80s it's not like
you had a phone that you couldjust shoot a selfie and then
somebody take the picture foryou and you would have, unless
she had, like somebody.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
did somebody take the picture for you, unless she had
, like somebody had to take thepicture?
Speaker 1 (35:34):
But then did she have to go get it developed?
Yes, or was it Polaroid?
Speaker 2 (35:38):
Oh, maybe it was Polaroid, but still, somebody's
got to take the Polaroid.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
They don't have a timer or anything?
No, they don't.
Speaker 2 (35:44):
And you're, I mean then.
Then you have to put it in anenvelope, lick the envelope, buy
a stamp, put the stamp on it,Either carry it down to your
mailbox.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Don't forget to write the address you got to find
Sylvester Stallone's address?
Speaker 2 (36:02):
Yes, then you have to put it in the mailbox or take
it to the post office, becauseif she'd only done one movie at
that time, she's not got anentourage of people that will do
.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
Do you suppose she sprayed perfume on that?
You know she did and you knowshe kissed the back of the
envelope with red lipstick.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
You know she did Of course she did.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
She was a stunningly beautiful woman.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
She was, but I hated her in Rocky I hated her.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
Well, you're supposed to hate her, I hated her.
They got married in December of1985, only 10 months after
Stiller's divorce from his firstwife was finalized.
The marriage only lasted 19months and tabloids swarmed the
story with rumors of cheatingand scheming.
Though things got ugly, nielsenreunited with her ex while
(36:49):
shooting 2018's Creed II,stepping back into her role as
Ludmilla Drago from Rocky IV.
But all was well between herand Stallone.
We buried the hatchet a longtime ago, nielsen told USA Today
when we were together.
We are two professionals and wekeep it that way.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
I mean, first of all, that was 127 years ago For real
.
Speaker 1 (37:16):
That would be like me being upset with a boyfriend I
had in high school.
Yeah, get over it.
Yeah, oh, I guess I did putthis one in there.
Oh, look at that.
Oh, look at me.
Okay, well, let's just rehashthis real quick.
Jennifer Grey and MatthewBrodrick may have played
siblings in the 80s classicFerris Bueller's Day Off, one of
my favorite movies of all time.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
I'm not going to say my opinion because I already get
hassled enough for my unpopularopinions.
Speaker 1 (37:44):
There was one summer I want to say it was between my
let's see when did that?
It doesn't say when it came out.
I want to say it was the year,the summer between my sophomore
year and my junior year.
I'd wake up every morning to along list of chores I had to get
done.
But before I would do thosebecause I always saved it till
the last minute and rushedaround the house to get it done.
(38:06):
I watched Ferris Bueller's.
Speaker 2 (38:07):
Day Off every single day that summer.
I just love that movie.
I do not.
I just love that movie.
I do not.
I know it looks like such a funday off.
It does not, it does.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
It does not.
You know what's a fun day offWatching the Price is Right, and
then the stories, yeah, yeah,except I, yeah, I just can't
watch the Price is Right nowbecause, well, that's not Bob,
it's not Bob.
And I just can't watchsurprises right now because it's
not Bob, and I just feel so badfor Drew and we just watched
the documentary again, adocumentary about his fiance
(38:39):
that got murdered or Amy,something was her name and he's
just not been the same since,and it's so sad it breaks my
heart.
so, on Ferris Bueller's Day Off,their feelings developed for
each other.
It was anything but familial,if you know what I'm saying.
The couple kept their romance asecret until a tragic event
(39:06):
thrust them into the spotlight.
I wonder what that was.
Vent thrust them into thespotlight.
I wonder what that was.
During a vacation in Ireland in1987, gray and Broderick were
involved in a head-on collisionthat left the passengers of the
other car dead.
I'm sorry it was the other car,not their car.
Dirty Dancing was released dayslater and Jennifer suffered
from serious survivor's guilt.
(39:27):
I became America's sweetheartwithin five days of the accident
.
She told San FranciscoChronicle in 2010.
The juxtaposition of that deepsorrow.
My husband told me I reallyshould practice the words.
He's like you sound so dumb,especially the names.
He's like it's so insulting.
(39:47):
I'm like.
I know the deep sorrow andsurvivor's guilt.
And then being celebrated asthe new big thing just didn't
jibe.
It didn't feel good to be thetoast of the town.
The accident was eventuallydeemed Broderick's fault and the
couple split in 1988.
So, yeah, that would have beenreally hard.
(40:08):
Five days prior, you killed twopeople in a car accident.
Yeah, and then that's out there.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
Yeah, because Dirty Dancing that was huge and that
movie is problematic now.
Speaker 1 (40:23):
Well, yeah, because she was a kid.
Speaker 2 (40:25):
A kid.
Patrick Swayze was like 40.
Not a kid.
The whole movie was problematic.
It was, it was, but Nobody putsbaby in a corner.
Speaker 1 (40:37):
That's right.
Miami Vice star Don Johnson andOscar nominated actress Melanie
Griffith were the RichardBurton and Elizabeth Taylor of
their time.
They sure were, if you're oldenough to know who those people
are I am.
I am too, but when the twofirst met she was just 14 and he
was 23.
Speaker 2 (40:56):
Problematic also.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
Yikes.
They moved in together beforeGriffith could drive and married
in 1976, just a few monthsafter her 18th birthday.
They divorced seven monthslater.
Speaker 2 (41:11):
Imagine that Weird.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
So he stole her entire teenage years when she
should have been out with funboys, and then got bored with
her seven months after hemarried her.
Speaker 2 (41:19):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (41:19):
Anyway, the couple remarried in 1989 and had one
daughter, dakota Johnson, who Ido not like.
I don't know why, but there'ssomething about that woman Of
Fifty Sh shades of gray fame.
In 2018, griffith told in styleit was sort of a natural karmic
thing for us to get backtogether and have dakota.
(41:40):
She was meant to come into theworld, if you think about it.
After divorcing johnson for asecond time in 1996, griffith
moved in with antonioas.
I love Antonio Banderas so much, and when my kids were little,
there was this movie, spy Kids,and he was the dad in it, and it
is such a good movie and I keeptrying to find it on TV so I
(42:00):
can watch it again.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
Okay, but did you see him in the Super Bowl ad?
Yes, he does not look good.
I was like whoa.
Well, he is very, very, veryold.
Okay, so is Harrison Ford.
Speaker 1 (42:14):
Oh, he's, very handsome.
Speaker 2 (42:15):
I mean, Harrison Ford is 80 times more handsome now
than he was when he was young.
Yes, that man has gotten betterlooking the older he has gotten
, and you know he's a helicopterpilot right, so he rescues
people all the time in Montanaor wherever.
Speaker 1 (42:33):
Can you?
Speaker 2 (42:33):
imagine being rescued by fucking Indiana Jones
rolling up on you.
Speaker 1 (42:38):
That would be amazing .
Speaker 2 (42:38):
I'm sure I've said that before, but I just we need
to go get lost there, whereverhe does, that I know.
Speaker 1 (42:43):
Before he dies, be like save me Harrison, save me
Indy.
So Griffith and AntonioBanderas were married for 18
years before filing for divorcein 2014.
I was very sad when they gotdivorced.
I liked them together.
I was never a huge MelanieGriffith fan, although she did
do some good stuff like Working.
Speaker 2 (43:04):
Girl.
Yeah, I wasn't a fan of hers.
Speaker 1 (43:07):
Yeah, she was, but just the two of them together,
like the bleach blonde bombshell, and the Latin lover.
Yeah, they just went goodtogether.
As for Johnson, he continued tohave scandalous relationships.
He was briefly engaged to JodiLynn O'Keefe, who played his
daughter on the TV show NashBridges in the mid-90s.
(43:31):
I wonder if she was also achild when he was dating her.
Then, in 1999, he marriednursery school teacher Kelly
Fleger.
She was 30 and he was 50 at thetime.
Speaker 2 (43:44):
I mean, that's fine.
Speaker 1 (43:45):
Yeah, a 30-year-old can make that decision.
Speaker 2 (43:47):
Yeah, so you know I have to watch Miami Vice like
probably once a week.
Speaker 1 (43:56):
That just sounds so insane.
Speaker 2 (43:57):
It is really insane, especially the episode where
they play in the air tonightReally insane, especially the
episode where they play In theAir tonight.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
I should know exactly which episode it is because and
I should know exactly whatPorsche they drive.
Oh, that's where the Porschelove comes from too.
Speaker 2 (44:17):
Or maybe it's a Ferrari, I don't know, but I do
know, no, I do know it is a 928.
No, no, no, no, that was inRisky Business.
The 928 was in Risky Businessand it was brown, look at you.
But yeah, so every time wespecifically have to watch that
(44:37):
episode and then I have to hearI'd say, look, watch this part,
this part, right here, I'm like,I know, for the 987th time I am
aware you're such a good wife.
I don't, I just I stare at theTV, like you know, cause when
you're a cook for 25 years ofreal life, you can tune servers
(44:59):
out and he is a server slashbartender so I can.
I can tune a server out with noproblem.
Speaker 1 (45:08):
I say that same thing about being a mother.
You learn to tune the kids out.
You don't want to be screamingat them when they're making
noise.
Speaker 2 (45:15):
They're having fun and playing, so you just tune
them out.
Tune them out.
Speaker 1 (45:18):
So yeah, I'm very, very good at that now.
A little too good sometimes.
Yeah, it may be difficult touncover a love story more 80s
than tommy lee and heatherlocklear?
Yeah, all right, tommy lee ismy guilty pleasure.
I think he is just the sexiestthing.
And have you ever watched um,what's the like movie?
(45:44):
But it's kind of documentary,but it's a movie of them on tour
.
Speaker 2 (45:51):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (45:51):
Shoot what's it called.
Speaker 2 (45:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (45:54):
All right, I'm going to keep talking.
Speaker 2 (45:56):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
And look it up, because it's really excellent
and it tells the backstories ofthe guys, um, and he really is a
good guy, like he grew up withreally cool parents, do you know
?
Speaker 2 (46:09):
who I found out was actually was a really good guy
that I just would never haveexpected.
What's his name from Kiss, eventhough he was on the Apprentice
, so I could live without that.
But he didn't drink, he didn'tdo drugs, nothing.
Speaker 1 (46:22):
Simmons, gene Simmons , have you ever seen?
Speaker 2 (46:23):
Simmons, gene Simmons , have you ever seen the picture
of him and his mom?
First, she's like two and ahalf feet tall and he's like 18
feet tall.
Speaker 1 (46:30):
Yes, so the movie's called the Dirt.
It came out in 2019.
It's a musical comedy and, yeah, it's obviously it's actors
playing the Motley Crue guys,but it really shows the rock
star lifestyle and it's a reallyfun movie to watch if you
(46:51):
haven't seen it.
Speaker 2 (47:01):
So, according to People, the Dynasty actress met
the Motley Crue drummerbackstage at an REO Speedwagon
concert.
That is the most 80s sentence Ibelieve there has ever been in
the history of sentences.
Speaker 1 (47:07):
I squeezed it all in there.
You sure did.
People Magazine Dynasty.
Speaker 2 (47:11):
That sentence had everything.
Speaker 1 (47:14):
Everything.
It's got everything.
Lee began bombarding Locklear'smanager with phone calls and
she eventually caved.
Three months later, after theirfirst date, lee proposed.
The two wed in 1986 in front ofa crowd of 500.
But lee's wild ways andinfidelity led to their divorce
in 1993.
So yes, but if you're marryinga rock star, you have to know,
(47:37):
that you have to know that'sgoing to happen, unless it's
alice cooper.
Speaker 2 (47:41):
Yeah, he's what one of a million.
I mean, he's probably like theexception.
Speaker 1 (47:48):
Yeah, and Tommy Lee was particularly infamous for
both his package and the amountof girls he was with.
Locklear married Bon Joviguitarist Richie Sambora in 1994
.
Speaker 2 (48:04):
Are they still together?
Speaker 1 (48:09):
I want to say no, because she's a mess now Is she
yeah, huh, yeah, I think so.
Speaker 2 (48:15):
You know, it's funny because when I read that to
Tommy Lee and Heather Locke LearI was like, oh yeah, but I
think I more remember her withRichie Sambora, for whatever
reason.
Speaker 1 (48:24):
But it doesn't say anything about them divorcing
either.
So I don't know.
But Lee married Baywatchbombshell Pamela Anderson in
1995, just four days aftermeeting her, and I did love
Tommy and Pamela together too.
That was my list of couplesthat really stuck out to me from
our time.
Is there anyone I have?
Speaker 2 (48:45):
one, okay, my favorite couple, okay, other
than, of course, johnny andWinona.
Speaker 1 (48:52):
Right yeah, my second favorite couple.
Speaker 2 (48:55):
Bruce will listen to me more.
Yeah, I can't believe I forgotthat one, because I mean, first
of all, they have probably themost grown-up relationship of
anybody ever.
Speaker 1 (49:09):
Yeah, the two of them is the gift that keeps on
giving.
Speaker 2 (49:13):
They really are Because when they got divorced,
they built houses next to eachother To raise the kids To raise
the kids and when she marriedAshton Kutcher he was over there
all the time, like they didstuff together all the time.
It seems to me they were themost emotionally mature.
I mean, obviously I don't knowwhat happened, I don't really
(49:35):
care why they broke up orwhatever.
People just do that, but I justthink it's just so emotionally
grown up.
Speaker 1 (49:44):
Yes, and I saw her on something I was watching
recently and she has a movie outwhich I've always really liked,
demi Moore.
She has been kind of well, shesaid.
When she was younger she wastold that she would be a popcorn
actress, which I don't knowwhat.
I'm assuming it's like aPop-Tart musician.
(50:07):
I'm going to say it's in thesame thing.
So she said it was part of herGolden Globe speech that she so.
Then she was like, okay, well,the awards just aren't meant for
me, then I'm just going to makethese movies.
I never saw GI Jane, but I loveGI Jane, I love GI Jane did you
ever see the movie Strip Tease?
yes, she was excellent in thatand I was working as a bartender
(50:30):
in a movie theater at the time,so I've seen that movie 50,000
times.
But she really was amazing inthat movie and in Ghost, of
course I think she was.
I just love Patrick Swayzeanyway.
But she's in this new moviecalled substance, um, and I
didn't really understand thepremise of it, but I did know
(50:53):
that she got nominated for anoscar.
Have you seen it?
I haven't, so I get.
It's a horror movie actually,which I didn't realize, and it
is funny that Demi Moore isgetting her first Oscar
nomination for a horror movie.
So she is a fitness instructor,everything's about her looks,
(51:14):
and she gets fired because she'sgetting too old and too old
looking.
So there is a substance that shecan inject and I guess it
splits her personality, likethere's a young, pretty version
of her and then like a monsterversion of her.
The way I had always seen it, Ithought she became like an
addict because she got older oraddicted to plastic surgery or
(51:35):
something.
But I don't think that's whatit is.
I think she's like yeah, so nowI'm really interested in seeing
it, but she was talking aboutbruce willis and it's just so
devastating what's happening tohim.
I know my heart cannot take it,I know.
But the circle of support thathe has around him is Because I
(51:55):
think he's moved back in withher, he has and his wife yes,
and they have been married for15, 20 years something.
And Demi was talking about,about.
She said I love our modernfamily.
Like there's no sort of any illwill or or anything.
She's like we all just loveeach other and we take care of
each other, and that's just whatwe do that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (52:16):
Like they're the most like, I just can't, especially
for being in hollywood you know,it's, they're, they're all you
always hear about how much, howfake.
You know this relationship wasset because of this and you know
these two people were pushedtogether because of this.
And you know and it's prettyobvious when, like the Justin
and Brittany that's obviouslydone for a reason Was
(52:40):
orchestrated and and a lot ofthem are.
Yes, you know, there are veryfew of course hanks and rita
wilson.
You know they're not, but youknow there's just you can.
You can always see it comingfrom like a mile and a half away
.
Speaker 1 (52:54):
You're like yeah, and it's actually kind of similar
to um, your favorite, johnny andyou know, they, they tried to
be together.
They weren't meant to betogether that way, yeah, but
they were definitely meant to bein each other's lives forever.
So they had to find theirdynamic.
Speaker 2 (53:10):
It's just crazy, you know it's so sad.
I love Bruce Willis so much andit's just, it's so unfair, it
really is, and you know, mm-hmm,that's, I guess, the nature of
the beast.
Speaker 1 (53:26):
And I guess I forgot one of the most popular music
videos of all time as well,would be Christie Brinkley and
Billy Joel.
Speaker 2 (53:37):
Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley.
Speaker 1 (53:39):
My God, when I was a child, Christie Brinkley walking
up in that garage in thatoutfit, with those heels and
that hat, I was in loveinstantly with her.
Speaker 2 (53:49):
So you all don't know my godmother and her husband,
but Nicole knows my godmotherand her husband.
And when.
So they're Italian inPhiladelphia and my dad used to
(54:09):
say that video was them.
Speaker 1 (54:13):
He's exactly right.
He is a million percent right.
Speaker 2 (54:16):
Because her husband?
He owned a junkyard inPhiladelphia, if that tells you
anything about who he is.
Junkyard in philadelphia ifthat tells you anything about
who he is.
And my aunt it's so funnybecause my aunt is my mom's best
friend right and she is superfancy like I have never, so
fancy.
I mean that woman matches likeeverything matches never a hair
(54:42):
out of place.
Speaker 1 (54:42):
never a hair out of place.
Never a hair out of placeMakeup done.
Speaker 2 (54:45):
Beautiful jewelry Like one color in her shirt will
match like the rhinestone in ashoe, and it's just impeccably
done.
My mom is not.
Is a hippie, my mom is.
So it's funny because nicole isfancy pants, I am not, my
(55:12):
sister is not fancy and one ofher friends is extremely fancy
pants.
So I don't know if that's justlike a genetic thing that we
just automatically gravitate topeople who are fancy, to fancy
people or what we're just like.
Don't look at me, look at myfancy friend here.
I don't know how that works,but yes, so that video.
Speaker 1 (55:35):
Yeah, is it's so true ?
Yeah, it's so true.
That's funny.
And then recently he played ashow at Madison Square Garden
and he sang that ChristyBrinkley was there.
Speaker 2 (55:45):
I saw that and he sang it to her.
Speaker 1 (55:47):
Oh, it was so sweet.
I saw that.
And again, like his wife wasthere, but there was no hard
feelings or anything weird aboutit.
Speaker 2 (55:54):
But yeah, I also wanted to do some because I got
a list here too Not a long list,so don't worry, we're not going
to be here forever Because Igot a list here too.
Speaker 1 (56:02):
Not a long list, so don't worry, we're not going to
be here forever One of them.
Speaker 2 (56:06):
Where did it go?
Damn it, I just missed it.
Oh, lenny Kravitz and LisaBonet.
Speaker 1 (56:12):
Oh yeah, that was one I did read but didn't put on
here.
Speaker 2 (56:15):
The only reason I say that is because of their
daughter.
Yeah, I mean yeah.
Speaker 1 (56:22):
She is she, yeah, she is.
She broke Channing Tatum'sheart yeah she's absolutely
gorgeous.
She is stunning.
Who was another one that?
Oh, remember when um Madonnadated Ned Beatty?
Yeah, after they made oh my God, oh, what was that Shit?
(56:43):
No, it wasn't shit.
No, oh, it was detective.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (56:50):
Dick Tracy yes, it was Dick Tracy, whew.
Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere.
I don't care for Richard Gereor Cindy Crawford.
Speaker 1 (56:59):
I like Cindy Crawford , richard Gere, meh.
Speaker 2 (57:04):
So they did that movie in Berlin Runaway Bride oh
, have you ever seen it?
Speaker 1 (57:10):
I don't think so.
It's not a great movie.
I don't like chick flicks.
Speaker 2 (57:13):
I don't either, but the only reason I ever watch it
is because it's Berlin and.
I, if you live in this area orare familiar with Ocean City in
any way, shape or form.
There is a great 80s moviecalled Violets Are Blue.
Kevin Kline, sissy Spacek whydid I don't know if it was like
(57:35):
it was after she did Carrie.
So she was pretty famous and Ifeel like he should have been at
the time too.
It's a phenomenal movie.
Speaker 1 (57:44):
I remember that movie .
Speaker 2 (57:45):
I don't know if it's just because I know people in it
, because my aunt Extras.
My dad's brother and his wifeare in it and we were going to
be in it, but I don't rememberwhy we weren't.
But it's just if you know OceanCity Maryland and you loved
Ocean City Maryland at any pointit is.
They're on Assateague.
Speaker 1 (58:06):
It's a really fun.
Speaker 2 (58:09):
It's a fun movie to watch.
I made my husband watch it andhe was like I haven't.
I never knew about this movieat all and I was like the only.
I mean I know it because I knowpeople in it.
But the movie theater that Iused to go to as a kid was like
three blocks from my house and Ivery much remember they
premiered the movie there, likethat they had sissy was there
(58:31):
and, um, kevin klein and likeeverybody they had a red carpet

There was a game on the sportsball game.
The sports ball game, Correct.

green team dominated the redteam.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
How about that?
How about that?
How about it?
That was a great game.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
It was Like my husband said it was the easiest
game we watched all year.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
It really was.
It was a complete and totaldomination, left, right, center.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Yeah, yeah, I mean, I still didn't feel comfortable
the whole time, the whole time.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
No, you can't ever feel comfortable in that
situation.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
No, I was even carefully not jinxing like oh my
god, are we gonna win?
Like nope.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
None of those words came out of my mouth I think my
mom did jinx the um shut out.
Oh yeah, because she said lookslike we're gonna and I was like
do not finish that sentence.
And she said looks like we'regoing to.
And I was like do not finishthat sentence.
And she said looks like we'regoing to have a shot.
And I was like I told you notto say it.
What's wrong with you, lady?
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Well, now we know why that didn't happen.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Blame it on my mom everybody I don't know, she's
hard to keep quiet.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
So yeah, our city of Philadelphia will be celebrating
on Friday, the day this comesout.
We've kind of collectively Ithink everyone we know has all
kind of decided we're not goingto do it again.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
I can't.
It's too much of a day, it'stoo much.
It's cold, it's snowed here andI've been tromping through snow
all day and I just the merethought of it just is exhausting
.
Yeah, it's such a day.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
It is.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Like I said, if it was like 20 minutes away, sure
I'd be all about it.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Yeah, it's like when the Firefly Music Festival used
to be here in Dover, like it was10 minutes from my house.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Yeah, okay, yeah, I'll go for all four days
because I can go home and showerand go to bed and get up and
cook a real meal.
Yeah, I just sure.
No, thanks, I can't.
Though when we went, when wewent the last one, it was enough
for me yeah, it really was.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
I agree with that I I mean really, I don't think I
have any urge at all.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
I don't Like, I do, but I don't Like if I could just
teleport there and thenteleport out immediately.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Like, the fan in me thinks I should be more excited
and be considering going.
But the old lady in me is likemeh, you're good, it's a real
struggle.
You're good, trust us on thisone, you're good.
The old lady is a real struggle, yeah, and she's usually right,
she takes over nine out of tentimes.
She has a lot of wisdom.
She has a been there, done thatattitude.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Yes, and she says you remember the last time we
didn't have that much fun, thelast time?
No, we didn't.
So yeah, it's just too manypeople in one.
Yeah, yeah, a lot, it is a lot.
I did it the once.
I told my friend at work thatis a young man's game right
there.
And I am not a young mananymore.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Yeah, yeah, and it was just different last time.
Plus also for me, because mykids were teenagers.
My sister-in-law lived in SouthJersey at the time and now she
lives in Arizona.
So you know it was go up to herhouse the night before, spend
the night, get up in the morning, get the train, and that was
(04:16):
kind of like best case scenarioof how to do the day.
And you know she's not thereanymore and it just yeah.
My kids are grown, they're likeI don't, I don't.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
I don't want to be around a bunch of drunk people.
I don't want to be in a crowd.
I don't want to get pushedaround.
If I were to go, it would bedown at the stadium in out boom
buying, gone right out by 12 andI bet even that's not as simple
as you?
Oh, I know, it's not, I'm just.
I have no doubt that becauseyou're absolutely correct.
That would not as simple as youthink it is.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Oh, I know it's not.
I have no doubt that it.
You're absolutely correct.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
That would be the best way to do it, because I
heard yesterday, today oryesterday they announced that
the parking lots will not beopen at the stadium so yeah that
doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
No, it doesn't.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
I know why, because it was going to take too much
police presence in the parkinglot that they needed elsewhere.
So so I was like, well, fuck, Iknow why.
Because it was going to taketoo much police presence in the
parking lot that they neededelsewhere.
So so I was like, well, allright, well, that makes sense,
fuck that shit.
There goes that idea yeah, plus,I didn't get, I didn't take off
, and uh, I'm around the secondquarter, my, uh, my postmaster
(05:21):
text leave denied.
So I said, well, and mypostmaster text leave denied.
I said well, I guess I'm goingto call out Nice.
But yeah, what else did you dothis?
Speaker 1 (05:31):
week.
Well, today we had a snow day,because it snowed all night last
night.
Well, I should say the state ofDelaware employees had a snow
day not the post office.
No, not the post office, um.
So we started watching thediddy documentary on hbo and
(05:53):
discovery plus and I think theid channel run it.
Oh, he's a piece of shit.
Yeah, I mean it's awful.
It's really hard to watch, um,but in the same context it's.
It's a good thing because youcan see the trauma in these
people.
Like, these are not paid actors, these are people who have been
through something and the factthat they can now come out and
(06:13):
share their story and bevalidated and let the world know
what happened to them is prettypowerful.
Right, I mean, he was awful andit's another one of those cases
they tell you about hischildhood.
I mean he was awful and it'sanother one of those cases they
tell you about his childhood.
His dad was shot when he was 33because he was involved in I
(06:33):
almost want to say mafia typestuff.
I can't remember that part, butanyway.
So, raised by a single mom inHarlem, so she raised him to be
tough because she knew beingsoft there would he'd never make
it.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Right.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
But again, as I say, you know your upbringing.
It's a reason, not an excuse.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Not an excuse.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
So he didn't have to grow up to be an awful person,
but he was just so power hungryand just so like get to them
before they get to you.
That's basically his mom waslike don't come home telling me
you got hit.
Like you better have hit himback twice as hard.
If somebody takes somethingfrom you, you take more than
that from them, and that's whathe was taught growing up.
(07:17):
So it was a perfect storm ofand he was extremely talented.
I mean, you can't deny that,whether you like his music or
not, he built a billion dollarlifestyle.
He sure did so he knew somethinghe was doing, but he sure did
not treat people nice ever likeever I mean most of the time
(07:39):
when you're at that level.
You haven't treated people verynice anyway, yeah, and that
that sucks because it doesn'tneed to be that way.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Nice doesn't get paid .
It should, though I am proof inthe pudding that that is not
true.
Nice does not.
I shouldn't say that I'm notvery nice, but good-hearted, I
suppose.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Usually, yeah, doesn't win any races.
That is true For some reason.
Yeah, I'm going to.
Before we get into it, I'm justgoing to remind everyone, while
you're paying attention if youactually are paying attention
that you can like, share, rateand review.
You know, it's the little starsthere.
(08:27):
It it makes a difference.
It moves people up, movespeople down, whatever.
You should just check it out onyour app, especially if you use
apple.
It's very important on apple.
It is from what I've been toldby the.
Yeah, so do that right nowplease do it now, please.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
She said she wasn't nice.
I'm not, she actually is supernice I'm not she likes to play
like she's tough.
She's only mean to people whodeserve it everybody deserves
fair enough.
Uh, yeah, so this week, uh,this episode will drop on friday
(09:12):
, february 14th.
What is that day?
Um, the day of love, if I canjust start this with.
Um, first of all, saintvalentine's day is not a
hallmark holiday no, we foundyeah because it started in like
14-something, so Hallmark wasnot a thing then.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
As far as I know, it wasn't.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Maybe who knows?
But also I know a lot of peoplehate on Valentine's Day and
that's fine, you can have youropinion, I hate on.
Valentine's Day.
My opinion is what is so wrongwith celebrating a day of love?
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Because, it should be every day.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
You're the worst.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
I know, because I just think it's stupid.
For one day, you should just benice to your significant other
every day.
Every day should be Halloween.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Yes, that's absolutely true, but it extends
past your significant other,like your kids galentine's day
that's the dumbest fucking thingI've ever.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Galentine's day, like let's what?
Let's just make the holidayeven stupider all right, cranky
pants, let's move on.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
So, since this will be dropping on valentine's day,
I decided, uh, that we're gonnafuck around and find out about
Gen X celebrity couples, uh-oh,yeah.
So some of these I remembered,some I did not, yeah, it was
just.
There was a lot I was goingthrough like, wow, oh yeah, oh
(10:40):
yeah, okay.
So the first one we're going tostart with is Brad Pitt and
Gwyneth Paltrow.
Do you remember when they dated?
Speaker 2 (10:48):
I did.
Do you remember their matchinghaircuts?
I don't remember the matchinghaircut, though.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
I didn't.
But then I saw the picture andthen I remembered and yeah so,
anyone, any way, who can everforget the infamous matching
haircuts Me?
Who can ever forget theinfamous matching haircuts Me?
The painfully attractive pairfirst began dating while filming
Seven and quickly became thegolden couple of the 90s.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
What's in the box?
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Do you think Brad Pitt's handsome?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
No.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Okay, do you think Gwyneth Paltrow's pretty?
Speaker 2 (11:20):
No.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Oh, all right, I am the opposite on both of those.
Okay, agree to disagree.
Yeah, that right, I am theopposite on both of those.
Okay, agree to disagree.
Yeah, that's what we usually do.
So, though they were engagedand once sported identical looks
, their romance came to an endin 1997, with the Goop founder
later taking blame for itsdemise during an interview with
Howard Stern.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Oh, hold on, Let me just first say yeah, okay, so
back to Brad Pitt.
Okay, I'm not a fan of Brad.
I do like Seven mostly.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Are you on Angelina's side?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
No, okay, I don't care about either one of them.
Oh, okay, no, I'm not.
I dislike Angelina even morebecause of the whole Jennifer
Aniston thing.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Yes, exactly, I digress, right, I digress.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Right?
No, so I have mixed feelingsabout Brad Pitt.
I don't hate Brad Pitt as muchas I hate Tom Cruise, correct,
but I don't particularly carefor him.
But then I remember the moviesthat I like that he's in, and
there's one movie in particularthat I think is a phenomenal
(12:25):
performance by him and I feellike he should have gotten
probably more.
Maybe not an award for it, butlike.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
I have so many of his movies running through my head
and I'm not sure which oneyou're going to say it's with
Bruce Willis.
Is that seven?
No 12 Monkeys, monkeys okay, Iprobably saw that it's set in
philadelphia.
Yeah, I'm sure I saw it.
If I did, I saw it once it's.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
It wasn't a very popular movie but it is a really
really good movie.
Um, most I like bruce willis,so, yeah, me too, um, and I like
anything set in philadelphia,so, but it is he plays um
mentally ill and he does thisthing with his eye through the
whole movie.
(13:14):
That I just don't understand.
How he does it and it's it waslike a 90s movie, so, or early
2000s maybe.
So it's not cgi, it's, it'sdefinitely him, and just the way
he is like he's very like, Imean it's very brad pitt, but
it's, it's, it's a great, it's,it is a good movie.
So I I come and go with bradpitt, of course I love seven
(13:36):
like there's no better movie onearth than I took a world
religion class in college and itwas a super fun class.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
It was just on weekends, but he had us watch
seven years in tibet.
That was the first time I'dseen that.
That's also a very good movie.
I haven't seen that either thatwas a good one, um, and then my
all-time favorite is going tobe oceans 11 I do like oceans 11
I love.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
That's why I say I come and go with him Like I.
Just I can't decide how I feelabout him.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
I think yeah, he and Clooney in that movie were just
perfect.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
And he did a lot in Katrina for Katrina.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Are you going to rethink your Brad Pitt stance?
No, okay good, you're too oldfor it to be changing your mind,
like, like that, I don't changemy mind.
Back to Gwyneth Paltrow.
She told Howard Stern in aninterview that she was a kid.
She was 22 when they met.
It's taking me until 40 to getmy head out of my ass.
(14:35):
You can't make that decisionwhen you're 22 years old.
You know, I think I was a kidand I wasn't ready and he was
too good for me, whatever, itjust didn't work out.
You don't have to be so dramatic.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
I know it's Hollywood .
They very rarely work out.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Okay, so next we have Justin Timberlake and Britney
Spears.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
This was a horrible idea just all the way around.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
The pictures just don't even look like a good
thing back then.
They didn't look happy.
So Justin Timberlake was abreakout star of the biggest boy
band in the world.
She was the most famous popstar in the world.
If pop music were prom, Britneyand Justin were its ultimate
king and queen From the infamousmatching denim outfits, which
(15:19):
is what I always picture when Ithink of the two of them to the
adorable nicknames Pinky andStinky, which I don't remember,
that.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
No.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
The young couple's four year relationship, which I
don't think I knew it was thatlong either.
No 1998 to 2002 and dramaticbreakup has helped define both
of their careers.
It's legacy immortalizedforever.
With cry me a river,timberlake's hit song about the
devastating split, the musicvideo featured a Brittany
(15:46):
lookalike and seeminglyconfirmed the cheating rumors.
I was kind of in denial.
Spring Spears would later say,seeing the video for the first
time during an interview withDiane Sawyer, who also asked if
the infidelity allegations weretrue.
I'm not technically saying he.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
You didn't finish that sentence.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
I didn't yep.
So, who knows, I'm going to saythat.
She said it without saying it,or you can just cut all that out
.
This one is hidden here,special for you I saw, I noticed
.
Johnny and Winona this one.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care, I don't
care, I don't care is it toolate for them?
Yeah, is it?
Speaker 1 (16:31):
yeah, it is, and it isn't because I know she's come
out with his whole trial withthat nut job um she did back him
, oh yeah, and she stood shesaid there was absolutely no way
, and that's true and so did hisex-wife.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
So I think I think it would not hurt my feelings if
they were to ever, but I thinkhe has gone, probably too far
into a hole well, she's not themost stable thing.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
She's not, and I think that's the problem I think
he's too far in toxic for eachother.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
I think that they are one of those couples that you
remember that will smith movieum that he was the uh superhero.
Oh, hitch or not hitch.
What the hell was the name ofthat movie?
Speaker 1 (17:25):
hutch no it wasn't hutch anyway, I know what you're
talking, yeah and him, and thatgirl could never be together
because, it was they, they wouldrestore.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I really think that that would be johnny and wanona.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
I think they just and hopefully they're best friends
to this day.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
I do believe they are and I I do think that they are
just the cutest.
I mean, they're, they are, theyare.
If you are goth, they are yourdream goth relationship yes,
that is true.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
So winona forever.
That was the tattoo depp gotduring his whirlwind romance
with rider 18, with the youngpair quickly becoming the it
couple after meeting at theGreat Balls of Fire premiere in
1989 and going on to star inEdward Scissorhands together,
Depp would later tell there'sbeen nothing in my 27 years.
(18:19):
That's comparable to thefeeling I have for Winona.
Their romance would play outuntil 1993 when they ended their
engagement and Depp infamouslychanged his tattoo to read why
no Forever.
Do you remember that?
I do.
Ryder later called her splitfrom Depp her first major
(18:40):
heartbreak telling Ellen in2009,.
I think it was really ironicbecause everybody else just
thought I had everything in theworld.
Heartbreak telling Ellen in2009,.
I think it was really ironicbecause, like everybody else,
just thought I had everything inthe world.
You know, I had no reason to bedepressed.
Everything was sort of at itspeak, but inside I was
completely lost.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
I mean for number one , she was so young, so young.
I mean yeah, and he's just sounstable.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
It's just not a no, but I think maybe one day in
goth heaven they rule over theentire land.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
And you'll be one of their minions.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Look, I will follow Johnny Depp to the ends of the
earth, always, have, always will.
I don't care.
I like a bad boy, apparently,and he is the baddest of all the
bad boys, and I don't even he.
I don't care how old he looks,or he is the most perfect human
(19:40):
being ever put on this planet.
You can fight me to the deathon that one.
I don't care, johnny Depp isthe most perfect, he's just
perfect.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Anyway, our next one is Robert.
Downey Jr and Sarah JessicaParker.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Only Tim Burton likes him more than me.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Before.
The Sex and the City starmarried Matthew Broderick in
1997 and the Avengers frontmanmarried wife and producer
partner Susan in 2005,.
The A-listers were in atumultuous seven-year
relationship from 1984 to 1991,which was defined by his
substance abuse issues.
(20:24):
I don't remember them beingtogether.
When I saw the picture Iremembered that.
But to say they had aseven-year relationship, like
definitely, although in 84, Iremembered that, but to say they
had a seven-year relationshiplike definitely, although in 84,
I was 11.
Yeah, so maybe it was a big dealbefore I was old enough to
realize.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
You know what's a good movie with her?
Girls just want to have fun.
Her and Helen Hunt Mm-hmm, Ilove.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Helen Hunt.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
I love Helen Hunt and I love that movie.
Mm-hmm, I love Helen Hunt.
I love Helen Hunt and I lovethat movie, because we should
seriously do an episode aboutthose dance shows from the 80s.
I almost got to go to onebecause they film them in
Philadelphia and there was oneright by my aunt's house very
cool Dance Party USA let's see.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
So I was so selfish, I like to drink.
I had a drug problem and thatdidn't jibe with sarah jessica,
because it is the furthest thingfrom what she is.
Robert downey jr, who got soberin 2002, later told parade.
She provided me a home andunderstanding.
She tried to help me.
She is a force of nature, so itwas very nice.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
But didn't her and Matthew Broderick kill somebody.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
No, that was him and Jennifer Gray.
Oh, jennifer, yep, they datedfor a little bit too.
I think that was one I didn'tput in here, but I did see it.
So it's not like I rememberthat off the top of my head, but
yes, I should have just leftthat and sounded smart.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
But anyway, I'm looking back not to put them in
here because, they murderedsomeone accidentally yeah, it
was a car accident.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
The two of them were in the front seat and there were
passengers in the back seat,and the passengers in the back
seat died and it was found to beMatthew Broderick's fault.
Yes, see, I didn't put it inhere, but it's a good thing I
read it.
Looking back on their romance,sarah Jessica Parker told people
that while she had to find thecourage to walk away, she also
(22:24):
doesn't regret any of it.
I don't resent the time spent.
It seems to me like RobertDowney Jr has always been a
pretty solid guy.
He just had an addiction issue,so it sounds like you know a
lot of people stuck by his sidebecause they must have known who
he was on the inside not justwho he was.
as an addict, I like RobertDowney Jr.
(22:45):
Yeah, I love him.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Yeah, I think he's great the pickup artist with
Molly Ringwald, mm-hmm.
Molly.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
All right.
So pop icon Madonna and Oscarwinner Sean Penn wed during a
top secret ceremony in Malibu,california, in 1985.
The couple earned the monikerthe Poison Pens because of their
volatile relationship, whichincluded allegations of abuse
that both parties have denied.
While they were together, thecouple made the box office flop
(23:19):
shanghai surprise in 1986 andmadonna dedicated her album from
that same year, true blue, toher.
Then hubby, I actually have ablue vinyl 45 oh wow of true
blue that I bought when it cameout I had her book in french.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Oh fancy, I don't know where it is now.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
It's probably worth a lot of money probably three
years later she filed fordivorce.
But in her 1991 film, madonna,truth or dare, when asked the
identity of her, the love of herlife, the singer responded my
whole sean, my whole heart, mywhole love.
Probably it was sean.
(24:05):
In 2000 madonna married guy rie, who happens to be my favorite
movie producer, and in 1996,penn married Robin Wright Jedi.
I always think of the PrincessBride when I see her.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
It's funny because when any of those polls it's
like who is the biggest villainin all of the movies, she is
always number one, with Jenny.
And I'm like you're damn right,she was horrible yep, but both
of those couples are nowdivorced oh really yes, so this
was one I didn't remember, butsince we had talked recently, I
know.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
When I saw that I was like hold up what tom cruise
met share at sean penn and andMadonna's wedding in 1985.
At the time the risky businessstar was 22 years old, 16 years
younger than the Moonstruckactress.
She has always liked them young.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
She does.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Sparks didn't really fly until the two reunited at
the White House event benefitingpeople with dyslexia, which
both Cruz and Cher battle with.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
So yeah, that was was that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
I can't even picture that in my head.
Like that doesn't make anysense, do you?
Speaker 2 (25:18):
think maybe scientology is the reason they
are not.
I can't imagine that sharewould, yeah, definitely vibe
with the scientology.
Hell, no nonsense, I don't knowShe'd be like fuck you.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
In 2013, Cher told Andy Cohen on Bravo's Watch what
Happens Live she was crazy forCruz for a little minute.
He is a little guy and shecalled him one of her top five
best lovers.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
It's not what I've heard about Tom Cruise.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
It's not what they say on the corner.
Not what they say.
She was actually with Cruisewhen she helped come up with the
barely there look she wore in1988 when she took home the
Academy Award for Best Actressin Moonstruck, and we all
remember that outfit With thefeathers right.
Yeah, the black bodysuit yeah,barely there.
(26:10):
This one I remembered.
Yes, like all of MichaelJackson's personal relationships
, his connection to BrookeShields wasn't conventional.
The two met at the 1981 Oscarsand though he seemed very into
her, it was more of a friendshipin Shields' eyes.
In 2009, she revealed toRolling Stone that the King of
(26:30):
Pop proposed to her on multipleoccasions.
I would say you have me for therest of your life.
You don't need to marry me.
I'm going to go on and do myown life and have my own
marriage and my own kids, andyou'll always have me, shields
said.
I think it made him relax.
He didn't want to lose thingsthat meant something to him.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
That really kind of gets in his head a little bit.
I have a lot of feelings aboutMichael Jackson.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
I do too, and I don't know how to feel about him at
the same time.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Yes, my feelings of Michael Jackson are probably not
very politically correct of me.
So I just think look, if youfucking sent your kid to spend
the weekend with michael jacksonafter all of those allegations,
you pimped your fucking kid.
(27:26):
Plain, andain and simple.
Yes, whether you believe it ornot.
And then you want to sue.
No, you pimped your, you soldyour child, you did.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Exactly.
But, I also feel like, see, Idon't know what happened.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
So I'm just basing this on my opinion.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
But he was robbed of his childhood and he was very
childlike as an adult with theamusement park at his house and
the zoo and all those things andI wonder if him having those
kids sleep in the bed was reallyjust a childlike sleepover type
thing for him.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
And you know, I'll never know.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
None of us will ever know.
We don't know.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
But the thing of it is is that maybe it was innocent
, maybe it wasn't, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
But simply, if you knew, that there were, if you
even thought there was a chance.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
If there were allegations and you simply
thought I'm going to let my kidsstay here?
You just wouldn't do it, unlessyour money is more important to
you.
Right, and I'm sorry, butthat's how I feel about it Right
.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
It would be like letting your 15-year-old
daughter go out with R Kelly.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
And then being surprised but at least we know,
yeah.
And then I want to turn aroundand sue them Right.
Well, you sold your kid.
Yeah, I want to turn around andsue him.
Well, you kind of you sold yourkid?
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Yeah, yeah, I agree with that.
I agree that the parents werein the wrong, but I also wonder
the extent of what his abuse.
Was he a pedophile or was hejust?
Yeah?
So I don't know if he's apedophile or if he was just
stuck in a state of being a10-year-old, or Perpetually?
Yeah.
(29:11):
So who knows?
But he had a tortured lifeanyway.
But again, reasons not excuses.
Yeah, so on to the next one.
Oh, I forgot to mention too.
Most of this information wasfound on E Online today, sorry.
According to page six, kimBasinger was so crazy for Prince
(29:31):
.
Did you remember this one?
Speaker 2 (29:33):
I do remember this, yes.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
I did not In 1989 that she relocated to his
hometown of Minneapolis to bewith him.
Rumor has it, the two made analbum titled Hollywood Affair
that was never released.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
I can imagine it wasn't released.
I can't imagine it's anythingworth hearing.
Well, I wouldn't hear anythingfrom Prince, but With Kim
Basinger.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
I don't imagine it wasn't released.
I can't imagine it's anythingworth hearing.
Well, I wouldn't hear anythingfrom Prince, but With Kim Basin
I don't know, yeah, you're right.
In 2015, Basinger discussed herrelationship with Prince with
the Daily Beast.
I really don't have boundaries,so I enjoyed that time of my
life.
She said it was a reallyspecial moment in time and I
have great memories memories andI don't put a lot of
restrictions on myself.
(30:12):
Let's just put it that way Ifthere's someone I connect with,
we'll go on these rides together.
I didn't really get like, wasshe saying, I dated black guys.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
No, I think it was probably more of an open
situation.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Yeah, I don't think Prince was ever monogamous, or
ever pretended to be monogamous.
Speaker 2 (30:30):
It was probably more of an open situation.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Yeah, I don't think Prince was ever monogamous or
ever pretended to be monogamous.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
I don't think Prince turned down sleeping with
anybody.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
I didn't At any point for any reason.
And nobody turned him down.
No, I don't, I know I wouldn'thave, but anyway I would have
made him leave his seals on,though, learning about Nicole's
kinks today.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
No kink shaming kids.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Speaking of Arsenio Hall, his birthday was today.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Yesterday or yesterday?
Speaker 1 (31:02):
Yeah, I think he turned like 78 or something
crazy.
Like something weird Don't saythat again.
Really weird.
So anyway, he met Paula Abdul,which I do remember this one, I
do remember that who was workingas a choreographer on the set
of the 1988 movie coming toamerica, classic.
The two dated from 1988 to 1989and he was not has nothing but
(31:25):
praise for his famous ex in 2009, the same year, rumors
circulated the two might berekindling their romance.
Hall told People the most funI've ever had in any phase of my
life was with a woman namedPaula.
All right, I didn't say thatexactly word for word, but you
got the gist.
(31:45):
I did the wine's kicking in.
Oh, by the way, I don't think Imentioned last week.
I survived dry Januaryuaryeither, and I'm pretty proud of
me.
She did pat on the back, I didit.
Good job, but yeah, now I'mback to boozing, so yeah that's
why I'm screwed up, she'slearning a word we were together
because we wanted to be.
Despite their apparentcompatibility, those crazy kids
(32:05):
couldn't make it work and theformer lakers girl cozied up
with Full House's John Stamosbefore marrying Estevez in 1992.
I remember her with Estevez.
I don't think I remember.
John Stamos.
Hall, meanwhile, has never beenmarried, though they were both
using drugs and alcohol at thesame time.
(32:25):
Drew Barrymore and CoreyFeldman met on the set of an
after-school special, ironicallytitled 15 and Getting Straight,
in 1989.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
So can we just go on a tangent about poor little
Corey Feldman?
He has completely gone off thedeep end.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Is he still alive?
Speaker 2 (32:43):
Yes, oh, I have I.
He has a band and he thinks hehas the greatest band.
Like it's, just it's.
I mean, it is hard to watch.
You're so secondhandembarrassed for Corey that
you're just like Corey, pleasejust sit, Stop it, Just stop.
I mean, first of all, he'sstill doing the Michael Jackson
(33:04):
dancing.
Wow, you are 50 some years old,Corey.
Let it go, yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:10):
It was cute when you were 10.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Yeah, it's not anymore no.
He still wears like a wholeleather.
I mean, he's got the pony.
You Google it sometime and youwill.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
I don't think I want to.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
It's awful.
It is awful.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
It is awful.
You know what's awful?
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Is they were filming a show called 15 and getting
straight and they picked the twobiggest child drug addicts.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
Yeah, in hollywood well, I mean they could play it.
They would play a convincingdrunken drug addict wouldn't
they?
That is true, but not the rolemodels that you're looking for
in that kind of anyway, thoseafter-school specials were dumb
anyway.
The young lovers even attendedthe 1988 Oscars together, but
they split up after nine monthsof dating In Feldman's 2013
memoir Choreography.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
Oh God, I mean say I'm telling you Corey move on,
bless his heart yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
He said the relationship ended because he
was heavily into drugs and shewas trying to stay sober.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
I mean that makes sense.
I think Corey might still be ondrugs.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
Drew had been an addict since she was like four.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
I know.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
That's insane.
Yeah, though Feldman is nolonger in the public eye,
although apparently he has aband he is in a band.
Barrymore has had a number ofhigh profile romances with
actors like Ed Norton, LukeWilson and Justin Long.
She has two daughters withex-husband Will Kopelman, Rocky
(34:39):
Star.
I loved this relationship.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
I wanted them to be together forever.
This one's a great, I think.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
Her and I share a birthday oh nice Rocky star
Sylvester Stallone becamesmitten with then 22 year old
Danish actress Bridget Nielsenshortly after she made her
feature film debut in Red Sonjain 1985.
According to People, it wasNielsen who made the first move,
sending Stallone a provocativephoto asking to meet him while
(35:12):
they were both staying at thesame hotel in New York City okay
, so can we just talk about alsohow much it would go into
making and sending a provocativephoto in the 80s it's not like
you had a phone that you couldjust shoot a selfie and then
somebody take the picture foryou and you would have, unless
she had, like somebody.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
did somebody take the picture for you, unless she had
, like somebody had to take thepicture?
Speaker 1 (35:34):
But then did she have to go get it developed?
Yes, or was it Polaroid?
Speaker 2 (35:38):
Oh, maybe it was Polaroid, but still, somebody's
got to take the Polaroid.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
They don't have a timer or anything?
No, they don't.
Speaker 2 (35:44):
And you're, I mean then.
Then you have to put it in anenvelope, lick the envelope, buy
a stamp, put the stamp on it,Either carry it down to your
mailbox.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Don't forget to write the address you got to find
Sylvester Stallone's address?
Speaker 2 (36:02):
Yes, then you have to put it in the mailbox or take
it to the post office, becauseif she'd only done one movie at
that time, she's not got anentourage of people that will do
.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
Do you suppose she sprayed perfume on that?
You know she did and you knowshe kissed the back of the
envelope with red lipstick.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
You know she did Of course she did.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
She was a stunningly beautiful woman.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
She was, but I hated her in Rocky I hated her.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
Well, you're supposed to hate her, I hated her.
They got married in December of1985, only 10 months after
Stiller's divorce from his firstwife was finalized.
The marriage only lasted 19months and tabloids swarmed the
story with rumors of cheatingand scheming.
Though things got ugly, nielsenreunited with her ex while
(36:49):
shooting 2018's Creed II,stepping back into her role as
Ludmilla Drago from Rocky IV.
But all was well between herand Stallone.
We buried the hatchet a longtime ago, nielsen told USA Today
when we were together.
We are two professionals and wekeep it that way.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
I mean, first of all, that was 127 years ago For real
.
Speaker 1 (37:16):
That would be like me being upset with a boyfriend I
had in high school.
Yeah, get over it.
Yeah, oh, I guess I did putthis one in there.
Oh, look at that.
Oh, look at me.
Okay, well, let's just rehashthis real quick.
Jennifer Grey and MatthewBrodrick may have played
siblings in the 80s classicFerris Bueller's Day Off, one of
my favorite movies of all time.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
I'm not going to say my opinion because I already get
hassled enough for my unpopularopinions.
Speaker 1 (37:44):
There was one summer I want to say it was between my
let's see when did that?
It doesn't say when it came out.
I want to say it was the year,the summer between my sophomore
year and my junior year.
I'd wake up every morning to along list of chores I had to get
done.
But before I would do thosebecause I always saved it till
the last minute and rushedaround the house to get it done.
(38:06):
I watched Ferris Bueller's.
Speaker 2 (38:07):
Day Off every single day that summer.
I just love that movie.
I do not.
I just love that movie.
I do not.
I know it looks like such a funday off.
It does not, it does.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
It does not.
You know what's a fun day offWatching the Price is Right, and
then the stories, yeah, yeah,except I, yeah, I just can't
watch the Price is Right nowbecause, well, that's not Bob,
it's not Bob.
And I just can't watchsurprises right now because it's
not Bob, and I just feel so badfor Drew and we just watched
the documentary again, adocumentary about his fiance
(38:39):
that got murdered or Amy,something was her name and he's
just not been the same since,and it's so sad it breaks my
heart.
so, on Ferris Bueller's Day Off,their feelings developed for
each other.
It was anything but familial,if you know what I'm saying.
The couple kept their romance asecret until a tragic event
(39:06):
thrust them into the spotlight.
I wonder what that was.
Vent thrust them into thespotlight.
I wonder what that was.
During a vacation in Ireland in1987, gray and Broderick were
involved in a head-on collisionthat left the passengers of the
other car dead.
I'm sorry it was the other car,not their car.
Dirty Dancing was released dayslater and Jennifer suffered
from serious survivor's guilt.
(39:27):
I became America's sweetheartwithin five days of the accident
.
She told San FranciscoChronicle in 2010.
The juxtaposition of that deepsorrow.
My husband told me I reallyshould practice the words.
He's like you sound so dumb,especially the names.
He's like it's so insulting.
(39:47):
I'm like.
I know the deep sorrow andsurvivor's guilt.
And then being celebrated asthe new big thing just didn't
jibe.
It didn't feel good to be thetoast of the town.
The accident was eventuallydeemed Broderick's fault and the
couple split in 1988.
So, yeah, that would have beenreally hard.
(40:08):
Five days prior, you killed twopeople in a car accident.
Yeah, and then that's out there.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
Yeah, because Dirty Dancing that was huge and that
movie is problematic now.
Speaker 1 (40:23):
Well, yeah, because she was a kid.
Speaker 2 (40:25):
A kid.
Patrick Swayze was like 40.
Not a kid.
The whole movie was problematic.
It was, it was, but Nobody putsbaby in a corner.
Speaker 1 (40:37):
That's right.
Miami Vice star Don Johnson andOscar nominated actress Melanie
Griffith were the RichardBurton and Elizabeth Taylor of
their time.
They sure were, if you're oldenough to know who those people
are I am.
I am too, but when the twofirst met she was just 14 and he
was 23.
Speaker 2 (40:56):
Problematic also.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
Yikes.
They moved in together beforeGriffith could drive and married
in 1976, just a few monthsafter her 18th birthday.
They divorced seven monthslater.
Speaker 2 (41:11):
Imagine that Weird.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
So he stole her entire teenage years when she
should have been out with funboys, and then got bored with
her seven months after hemarried her.
Speaker 2 (41:19):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (41:19):
Anyway, the couple remarried in 1989 and had one
daughter, dakota Johnson, who Ido not like.
I don't know why, but there'ssomething about that woman Of
Fifty Sh shades of gray fame.
In 2018, griffith told in styleit was sort of a natural karmic
thing for us to get backtogether and have dakota.
(41:40):
She was meant to come into theworld, if you think about it.
After divorcing johnson for asecond time in 1996, griffith
moved in with antonioas.
I love Antonio Banderas so much, and when my kids were little,
there was this movie, spy Kids,and he was the dad in it, and it
is such a good movie and I keeptrying to find it on TV so I
(42:00):
can watch it again.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
Okay, but did you see him in the Super Bowl ad?
Yes, he does not look good.
I was like whoa.
Well, he is very, very, veryold.
Okay, so is Harrison Ford.
Speaker 1 (42:14):
Oh, he's, very handsome.
Speaker 2 (42:15):
I mean, Harrison Ford is 80 times more handsome now
than he was when he was young.
Yes, that man has gotten betterlooking the older he has gotten
, and you know he's a helicopterpilot right, so he rescues
people all the time in Montanaor wherever.
Speaker 1 (42:33):
Can you?
Speaker 2 (42:33):
imagine being rescued by fucking Indiana Jones
rolling up on you.
Speaker 1 (42:38):
That would be amazing .
Speaker 2 (42:38):
I'm sure I've said that before, but I just we need
to go get lost there, whereverhe does, that I know.
Speaker 1 (42:43):
Before he dies, be like save me Harrison, save me
Indy.
So Griffith and AntonioBanderas were married for 18
years before filing for divorcein 2014.
I was very sad when they gotdivorced.
I liked them together.
I was never a huge MelanieGriffith fan, although she did
do some good stuff like Working.
Speaker 2 (43:04):
Girl.
Yeah, I wasn't a fan of hers.
Speaker 1 (43:07):
Yeah, she was, but just the two of them together,
like the bleach blonde bombshell, and the Latin lover.
Yeah, they just went goodtogether.
As for Johnson, he continued tohave scandalous relationships.
He was briefly engaged to JodiLynn O'Keefe, who played his
daughter on the TV show NashBridges in the mid-90s.
(43:31):
I wonder if she was also achild when he was dating her.
Then, in 1999, he marriednursery school teacher Kelly
Fleger.
She was 30 and he was 50 at thetime.
Speaker 2 (43:44):
I mean, that's fine.
Speaker 1 (43:45):
Yeah, a 30-year-old can make that decision.
Speaker 2 (43:47):
Yeah, so you know I have to watch Miami Vice like
probably once a week.
Speaker 1 (43:56):
That just sounds so insane.
Speaker 2 (43:57):
It is really insane, especially the episode where
they play in the air tonightReally insane, especially the
episode where they play In theAir tonight.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
I should know exactly which episode it is because and
I should know exactly whatPorsche they drive.
Oh, that's where the Porschelove comes from too.
Speaker 2 (44:17):
Or maybe it's a Ferrari, I don't know, but I do
know, no, I do know it is a 928.
No, no, no, no, that was inRisky Business.
The 928 was in Risky Businessand it was brown, look at you.
But yeah, so every time wespecifically have to watch that
(44:37):
episode and then I have to hearI'd say, look, watch this part,
this part, right here, I'm like,I know, for the 987th time I am
aware you're such a good wife.
I don't, I just I stare at theTV, like you know, cause when
you're a cook for 25 years ofreal life, you can tune servers
(44:59):
out and he is a server slashbartender so I can.
I can tune a server out with noproblem.
Speaker 1 (45:08):
I say that same thing about being a mother.
You learn to tune the kids out.
You don't want to be screamingat them when they're making
noise.
Speaker 2 (45:15):
They're having fun and playing, so you just tune
them out.
Tune them out.
Speaker 1 (45:18):
So yeah, I'm very, very good at that now.
A little too good sometimes.
Yeah, it may be difficult touncover a love story more 80s
than tommy lee and heatherlocklear?
Yeah, all right, tommy lee ismy guilty pleasure.
I think he is just the sexiestthing.
And have you ever watched um,what's the like movie?
(45:44):
But it's kind of documentary,but it's a movie of them on tour
.
Speaker 2 (45:51):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (45:51):
Shoot what's it called.
Speaker 2 (45:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (45:54):
All right, I'm going to keep talking.
Speaker 2 (45:56):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
And look it up, because it's really excellent
and it tells the backstories ofthe guys, um, and he really is a
good guy, like he grew up withreally cool parents, do you know
?
Speaker 2 (46:09):
who I found out was actually was a really good guy
that I just would never haveexpected.
What's his name from Kiss, eventhough he was on the Apprentice
, so I could live without that.
But he didn't drink, he didn'tdo drugs, nothing.
Speaker 1 (46:22):
Simmons, gene Simmons , have you ever seen?
Speaker 2 (46:23):
Simmons, gene Simmons , have you ever seen the picture
of him and his mom?
First, she's like two and ahalf feet tall and he's like 18
feet tall.
Speaker 1 (46:30):
Yes, so the movie's called the Dirt.
It came out in 2019.
It's a musical comedy and, yeah, it's obviously it's actors
playing the Motley Crue guys,but it really shows the rock
star lifestyle and it's a reallyfun movie to watch if you
(46:51):
haven't seen it.
Speaker 2 (47:01):
So, according to People, the Dynasty actress met
the Motley Crue drummerbackstage at an REO Speedwagon
concert.
That is the most 80s sentence Ibelieve there has ever been in
the history of sentences.
Speaker 1 (47:07):
I squeezed it all in there.
You sure did.
People Magazine Dynasty.
Speaker 2 (47:11):
That sentence had everything.
Speaker 1 (47:14):
Everything.
It's got everything.
Lee began bombarding Locklear'smanager with phone calls and
she eventually caved.
Three months later, after theirfirst date, lee proposed.
The two wed in 1986 in front ofa crowd of 500.
But lee's wild ways andinfidelity led to their divorce
in 1993.
So yes, but if you're marryinga rock star, you have to know,
(47:37):
that you have to know that'sgoing to happen, unless it's
alice cooper.
Speaker 2 (47:41):
Yeah, he's what one of a million.
I mean, he's probably like theexception.
Speaker 1 (47:48):
Yeah, and Tommy Lee was particularly infamous for
both his package and the amountof girls he was with.
Locklear married Bon Joviguitarist Richie Sambora in 1994
.
Speaker 2 (48:04):
Are they still together?
Speaker 1 (48:09):
I want to say no, because she's a mess now Is she
yeah, huh, yeah, I think so.
Speaker 2 (48:15):
You know, it's funny because when I read that to
Tommy Lee and Heather Locke LearI was like, oh yeah, but I
think I more remember her withRichie Sambora, for whatever
reason.
Speaker 1 (48:24):
But it doesn't say anything about them divorcing
either.
So I don't know.
But Lee married Baywatchbombshell Pamela Anderson in
1995, just four days aftermeeting her, and I did love
Tommy and Pamela together too.
That was my list of couplesthat really stuck out to me from
our time.
Is there anyone I have?
Speaker 2 (48:45):
one, okay, my favorite couple, okay, other
than, of course, johnny andWinona.
Speaker 1 (48:52):
Right yeah, my second favorite couple.
Speaker 2 (48:55):
Bruce will listen to me more.
Yeah, I can't believe I forgotthat one, because I mean, first
of all, they have probably themost grown-up relationship of
anybody ever.
Speaker 1 (49:09):
Yeah, the two of them is the gift that keeps on
giving.
Speaker 2 (49:13):
They really are Because when they got divorced,
they built houses next to eachother To raise the kids To raise
the kids and when she marriedAshton Kutcher he was over there
all the time, like they didstuff together all the time.
It seems to me they were themost emotionally mature.
I mean, obviously I don't knowwhat happened, I don't really
(49:35):
care why they broke up orwhatever.
People just do that, but I justthink it's just so emotionally
grown up.
Speaker 1 (49:44):
Yes, and I saw her on something I was watching
recently and she has a movie outwhich I've always really liked,
demi Moore.
She has been kind of well, shesaid.
When she was younger she wastold that she would be a popcorn
actress, which I don't knowwhat.
I'm assuming it's like aPop-Tart musician.
(50:07):
I'm going to say it's in thesame thing.
So she said it was part of herGolden Globe speech that she so.
Then she was like, okay, well,the awards just aren't meant for
me, then I'm just going to makethese movies.
I never saw GI Jane, but I loveGI Jane, I love GI Jane did you
ever see the movie Strip Tease?
yes, she was excellent in thatand I was working as a bartender
(50:30):
in a movie theater at the time,so I've seen that movie 50,000
times.
But she really was amazing inthat movie and in Ghost, of
course I think she was.
I just love Patrick Swayzeanyway.
But she's in this new moviecalled substance, um, and I
didn't really understand thepremise of it, but I did know
(50:53):
that she got nominated for anoscar.
Have you seen it?
I haven't, so I get.
It's a horror movie actually,which I didn't realize, and it
is funny that Demi Moore isgetting her first Oscar
nomination for a horror movie.
So she is a fitness instructor,everything's about her looks,
(51:14):
and she gets fired because she'sgetting too old and too old
looking.
So there is a substance that shecan inject and I guess it
splits her personality, likethere's a young, pretty version
of her and then like a monsterversion of her.
The way I had always seen it, Ithought she became like an
addict because she got older oraddicted to plastic surgery or
(51:35):
something.
But I don't think that's whatit is.
I think she's like yeah, so nowI'm really interested in seeing
it, but she was talking aboutbruce willis and it's just so
devastating what's happening tohim.
I know my heart cannot take it,I know.
But the circle of support thathe has around him is Because I
(51:55):
think he's moved back in withher, he has and his wife yes,
and they have been married for15, 20 years something.
And Demi was talking about,about.
She said I love our modernfamily.
Like there's no sort of any illwill or or anything.
She's like we all just loveeach other and we take care of
each other, and that's just whatwe do that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (52:16):
Like they're the most like, I just can't, especially
for being in hollywood you know,it's, they're, they're all you
always hear about how much, howfake.
You know this relationship wasset because of this and you know
these two people were pushedtogether because of this.
And you know and it's prettyobvious when, like the Justin
and Brittany that's obviouslydone for a reason Was
(52:40):
orchestrated and and a lot ofthem are.
Yes, you know, there are veryfew of course hanks and rita
wilson.
You know they're not, but youknow there's just you can.
You can always see it comingfrom like a mile and a half away
.
Speaker 1 (52:54):
You're like yeah, and it's actually kind of similar
to um, your favorite, johnny andyou know, they, they tried to
be together.
They weren't meant to betogether that way, yeah, but
they were definitely meant to bein each other's lives forever.
So they had to find theirdynamic.
Speaker 2 (53:10):
It's just crazy, you know it's so sad.
I love Bruce Willis so much andit's just, it's so unfair, it
really is, and you know, mm-hmm,that's, I guess, the nature of
the beast.
Speaker 1 (53:26):
And I guess I forgot one of the most popular music
videos of all time as well,would be Christie Brinkley and
Billy Joel.
Speaker 2 (53:37):
Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley.
Speaker 1 (53:39):
My God, when I was a child, Christie Brinkley walking
up in that garage in thatoutfit, with those heels and
that hat, I was in loveinstantly with her.
Speaker 2 (53:49):
So you all don't know my godmother and her husband,
but Nicole knows my godmotherand her husband.
And when.
So they're Italian inPhiladelphia and my dad used to
(54:09):
say that video was them.
Speaker 1 (54:13):
He's exactly right.
He is a million percent right.
Speaker 2 (54:16):
Because her husband?
He owned a junkyard inPhiladelphia, if that tells you
anything about who he is.
Junkyard in philadelphia ifthat tells you anything about
who he is.
And my aunt it's so funnybecause my aunt is my mom's best
friend right and she is superfancy like I have never, so
fancy.
I mean that woman matches likeeverything matches never a hair
(54:42):
out of place.
Speaker 1 (54:42):
never a hair out of place.
Never a hair out of placeMakeup done.
Speaker 2 (54:45):
Beautiful jewelry Like one color in her shirt will
match like the rhinestone in ashoe, and it's just impeccably
done.
My mom is not.
Is a hippie, my mom is.
So it's funny because nicole isfancy pants, I am not, my
(55:12):
sister is not fancy and one ofher friends is extremely fancy
pants.
So I don't know if that's justlike a genetic thing that we
just automatically gravitate topeople who are fancy, to fancy
people or what we're just like.
Don't look at me, look at myfancy friend here.
I don't know how that works,but yes, so that video.
Speaker 1 (55:35):
Yeah, is it's so true ?
Yeah, it's so true.
That's funny.
And then recently he played ashow at Madison Square Garden
and he sang that ChristyBrinkley was there.
Speaker 2 (55:45):
I saw that and he sang it to her.
Speaker 1 (55:47):
Oh, it was so sweet.
I saw that.
And again, like his wife wasthere, but there was no hard
feelings or anything weird aboutit.
Speaker 2 (55:54):
But yeah, I also wanted to do some because I got
a list here too Not a long list,so don't worry, we're not going
to be here forever Because Igot a list here too.
Speaker 1 (56:02):
Not a long list, so don't worry, we're not going to
be here forever One of them.
Speaker 2 (56:06):
Where did it go?
Damn it, I just missed it.
Oh, lenny Kravitz and LisaBonet.
Speaker 1 (56:12):
Oh yeah, that was one I did read but didn't put on
here.
Speaker 2 (56:15):
The only reason I say that is because of their
daughter.
Yeah, I mean yeah.
Speaker 1 (56:22):
She is she, yeah, she is.
She broke Channing Tatum'sheart yeah she's absolutely
gorgeous.
She is stunning.
Who was another one that?
Oh, remember when um Madonnadated Ned Beatty?
Yeah, after they made oh my God, oh, what was that Shit?
(56:43):
No, it wasn't shit.
No, oh, it was detective.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (56:50):
Dick Tracy yes, it was Dick Tracy, whew.
Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere.
I don't care for Richard Gereor Cindy Crawford.
Speaker 1 (56:59):
I like Cindy Crawford , richard Gere, meh.
Speaker 2 (57:04):
So they did that movie in Berlin Runaway Bride oh
, have you ever seen it?
Speaker 1 (57:10):
I don't think so.
It's not a great movie.
I don't like chick flicks.
Speaker 2 (57:13):
I don't either, but the only reason I ever watch it
is because it's Berlin and.
I, if you live in this area orare familiar with Ocean City in
any way, shape or form.

So she was pretty famous and Ifeel like he should have been at
the time too.
It's a phenomenal movie.
Speaker 1 (57:44):
I remember that movie .
Speaker 2 (57:45):
I don't know if it's just because I know people in it
, because my aunt Extras.
My dad's brother and his wifeare in it and we were going to
be in it, but I don't rememberwhy we weren't.
But it's just if you know OceanCity Maryland and you loved
