At Monday night’s Met Gala red carpet, Vogue contributing editor André Leon Talley completed his new annual task of interviewing—or, more accurately, shouting compliments at—attending celebrities.
Master of None is coming back, but it’s going to be awhile.
Aziz Ansari is pretty much having the greatest week ever. First, his hit Netflix show Master of None won Best Comedy at the Critics’ Choice Television Awards. Secondly, Ansari got to experience a longtime fantasy of his—the chance to dine at Tyrese Gibson’s personal, in-home, Benihana-style restaurant. This is a very…
Long long loooooooong before Kim Kardashian “broke the internet” with that Paper cover featuring her pouring champagne into her butt, Gwyneth Paltrow broke the internet by pouring verbal champagne into our collective butts. At least, that’s the way our Lady of Goopelupe tells it.
The second episode of Aziz Ansari’s Netflix vehicle, Master of None, revolves around Ansari’s character Dev and his Chinese friend Brian spending time with their immigrant parents to better understand the experiences and difficulties they faced moving to America. That plotline alone makes me happy to have Ansari’s…
Given the heavy relationship content in his last standup special and the success of Modern Romance, it would seem that Aziz Ansari is positioning himself as a romantic sage of sorts. But the trailer for his upcoming Netflix series, Master of None, depicts him as just another awkward fool (named Dev) who’s clumsily…
In today’s Tweet Beat, Taylor Swift is really going to miss her cats, Aziz Ansari has a flashback and Joe and Jill Biden are the cutest.
In order to physically get with a person, it helps to meet in person, OK? This is not rocket sex science, it is a fact. So if you have met someone you like, do this one simple trick: Try texting them and asking them to hang out with you at a specific place on a specific day at a specific time. Come on guys, you got…
A good bulk of Aziz Ansari's latest Netflix special, Aziz Ansari: Live at Madison Square Garden, revolves around his newfound feminism and men's cluelessness about women's issues.
While we were all busy trying to decide which joke about George Clooney was the most gratuitous of the Golden Globes, comedian and actor Aziz Ansari was spending his Sunday evening devoted to more worthy causes. Specifically, he was calling out Fox News pond scum Rupert Murdoch for his legacy of racist bullshit and…
This video of Grover and Aziz Ansari is just ridiculous. Totally, totally ridiculous.
Aziz, to Letterman Monday night: "My girlfriend has influence on me. She's a big feminist. That made me think about those kinds of issues. I'm a feminist as well. Any feminists out here: clap if you're a feminist?"
New audio recording reveals that Stephen Collins, the actor best known for playing the father/pastor on the WB show 7th Heaven, has molested several underage girls.
I have mixed feelings about Parks & Recreation (mostly good, but I just got stuck halfway through Season 6 and can't bring myself to watch it), but my favorite part is probably any instance of Aziz Ansari's Tom Haverford pitching one of his ridiculous ideas, or just sharing one of those classic Haverfordisms. They…
OH, HELLO, REASON WORDS WERE INVENTED. It's just my favorite story of all of life. As you may or may not know, Aziz Ansari famously tells a story in which he sat near 50 Cent in a restaurant and the rapper didn't know what a grapefruit was. After a long, long silence, the rapper has finally SPOKEN OUT TO CLEAR HIS…
One nitpick: isn't saying 'Aziz Ansari sari' like saying 'ATM machine'? Whatever, just watch this.
How is Aziz Ansari not all of our husbands? I feel like he'd be into that. Right? I mean, he likes to eat out a lot. I don't know what I'm saying, but think about it. (Don't.)
