A local news item out of Aberdeen, South Dakota has sparked outrage from a slew of famous authors, who are infuriated by a quote from a recent college graduate who does not care for the work of YA author Sarah Dessen.

On August 29, I sat on my couch watching the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards, waiting for something to happen. And then it did: a commercial for AT&T and Spotify aired multiple times, advertising some partnership I was too distracted to commit to memory. In the 30-second spot, a handsome boy band mouths the lyrics to a…

Stephen Miller is a racist. That President Trump’s ghoulish policy advisor—the architect behind the administration’s travel ban, child separation crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border, and refugee reduction efforts—aligns with white supremacists is not new information, nor is it particularly difficult to conclude,…

Imagine if Lebron James decided to leave whatever team he’s on this month to play for an entirely different league. That is essentially what is happening in women’s soccer—or as I like to call it, “soccer”—right now.

CONFIRMED: Harry and Meghan are skipping Christmas with the Queen. Surely no one will blow this hugely out of proportion!

Welcome to Jezebel Inquires, a very serious tabloid about very serious things, like how Jane Fonda made prison handcuffs the hot fall trend, and what exactly Tori Spelling stuck in that Target shopping cart.

Back when it was okay to enjoy things—like, this summer, when Disney announced that Halle Bailey of R&B twin duo Chloe x Halle would play Ariel in the live-action remake of The Little Mermaid—there were rumors that Harry Styles might star alongside her as Prince Eric. Selfishly, I was enthralled. Prince Eric and his…

Gird your loins my friends, because the day has finally arrived—the start of public impeachment hearings against Donald Trump. And while we’re unlikely to hear anything that we don’t already know deep in our hearts to be true, we will be subjected, over the next two weeks, to a parade of witnesses who are perfectly…

It’s that time of year: Mariah Carey’s on the radio, downtowns are lit up with hanging LED-and-garland sculptures that don’t quite look like the snowflakes they’re supposed to emulate but are nice to see anyway, and people are bickering about “Baby, It’s Cold Outside.”

Wednesday begins public impeachment hearings into the ongoing investigation of President Trump. But one day earlier, another Trump-related impeachment proceeding commenced: The University of Florida’s student government moved to impeach their student body president after he spent $50,000 to invite Donald Trump Jr and…

It’s halfway through November, a magical time of year—the time of year in which DJ and human q-tip Moby reminds everyone he hasn’t eaten cheese for several decades. On Tuesday, the self-described “musician, DJ, photographer, author, and animal rights activist” commemorated his 32nd vegan anniversary with some rather…

Welcome John Legend—musician, member of the prestigious EGOT club, Donald Trump nemesis, lesser half to Chrissy Teigen and Christmas-obsessive—to a new, exclusive group of hunks and Blake Shelton: he’s been crowned People Magazines’s Sexist Man Alive 2019. Legend takes the title from Idris Elba last year, which would…

I love a story about someone trying to squeeze a weird support animal onto a flight: peacocks, hamsters, squirrels, I want it all. But while many have their precious “support animals” turned away because they’re not allowed or incorrectly certified, one airport is bringing the support animals to you.

Jared Kushner is a man who has many ideas, along with the limp, damp demeanor of a wilting head of lettuce. Unfortunately for him, his ideas are often incredibly dumb and laughably ineffective. Take, for example, his latest great idea—livestreaming the building of Donald Trump’s wall on the U.S-Mexico border, in an…

It seems like every few months, someone suggests that Hillary Clinton might be interested in running for president again. Those rumors are always blessedly unsubstantiated, but now that Michael Bloomberg’s back to talking about running, anything seems possible, which makes it all the more worrisome that Clinton’s…

Hell hath no fury like a turkey in Thanksgiving season, and the wild turkeys of Toms River, New Jersey are seeking their revenge against residents preparing to celebrate both human and turkey slaughter. Indeed, the town now belongs to them.
