Well, would you look at that: the cover of this week’s People is a flashy, splashy, gossipy look at the private misery Donald Trump Jr., is suffering in the wake of his father’s unlikely ascent to power.
It seems like everything Ariel Winter does receives a headline. And, based on those headlines, it seems like all she does is slam things.
On Tuesday morning it was brought to my attention that Lindsay Shookus may have created a Twitter account for the sole purpose of denying new reports that her current relationship with Ben Affleck had begun “as an affair.” The account had just one tweet, and was followed by just 20 people. Soon after becoming follower…
Beyoncé’s twins are here on this earth. We know that for certain. But that’s about all we know. For anyone who cares about these kind of things, it has been fascinating to watch gossip and entertainment sites struggle to report and confirm the very little information swirling around the newest members of the Carter…
In addition to Breitbart, Drudge Report, InfoWars and Fox & Friends, the president has an ally in David Pecker, the CEO of American Media, Inc., which owns the National Enquirer, the Star, the Globe, the Examiner, OK!, RadarOnline, and, as of a recent and controversial acquisition, Us Weekly, which has quickly joined…
We’re excited to announce that DirtCast, our new podcast dissecting the salacious and calculated world of celebrity gossip, is—like Anastasia Steele in Fifty Shades Darker—coming very soon.
In the back of meow-st tabloids you’ll find full-purr-ge ads for “collectibles” sold by companies like Franklin Mint and Bradford Exchange. These are collectibles in the sense that, yes, they (like literally anything) can technically be collected, but not in the sense that collecting them is a rewarding…
Welcome to Midweek Madness, where we find the strength to shuffle into the magazine store after taking a week off to digest last Tuesday’s events, look beyond the apocalyptic headlines at eye level and lift our heads up to the lighter fare—the stuff that’s both less important than it ever was, and an oddly reassuring…
In my roughly 18 months covering celebrity gossip for Jezebel, I have seen so many tabloid covers screaming about the rumored divorce of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt that news of their actual divorce hit me not like a ton of bricks, but like a gentle dusting of old, scraped off grout from in between a ton of bricks.
Britney Spears’ lawyers have reportedly sent a sternly worded legal notice cautioning In Touch not to to move forward with a story about Spears’ alleged “erratic” behavior at the MTV VMAs.
Welcome to Midweek Madness, where we go to the counter with our magazines, get asked if we need a bag, say no, and hear the cashier laugh in response. “I know you don’t need a bag,” he says. “You’re the guy who never needs a bag!”
Just weeks after Jennifer Aniston used the publication to condemn tabloid news, Renée Zellweger, Bridget Jones herself, published her own piece in the Huffington Post Friday in which she chastised the same media outlets for their comments about her face and ongoing mistreatment of celebrities—women, specifically.
Welcome to Midweek Madness, where we look at the covers of our favorite magazines, sigh, and pick them up anyway. This week, Star published photos of Lindsay Lohan and Egor Tarabasov fighting, Life & Style thinks Jennifer Lopez is pregnant again, and In Touch thinks Brad Pitt was “caught with Jen.”
Tabloids like Star, OK!, and In Touch have covered Jennifer Aniston’s countless pregnancies for years. Some were miracles, some were twins, and more than a few were surprises, but they all had one thing in common: they were fake. But after years of sitting silently as tabloids made up stories about her uterus—and just…
Welcome to Midweek Madness, where we decide to make this installment a little more interactive by using Kinja’s Q&A system to answer all of your most burning questions about this week’s hottest goss, which includes: Prince’s alleged suicide note, Gwen and Blake’s alleged wedding, Katie and Jamie’s alleged wedding, and …
Though The Bachelor has aired for 20 seasons, the show has never received an Emmy nomination for any of its iterations (The Bachelorette, Bachelor Pad) in any category. They’d like to change that; last week, it was reported that its production company, Warner Brothers, had rolled out a star-studded For Your…
Welcome to Midweek Madness, where we go to the magazine store and notice that the classy magazines are more interesting than the trashy ones, swap out In Touch and Life & Style for People and Us, walk to the counter, notice the man behind it can tell something’s off, and feel sort of thrilled about breaking a routine.
This afternoon, Kanye West kicked off New York Fashion Week with a presentation of his Yeezy Season 3 collection for Adidas, as well as a listening session for his forthcoming album, The Life of Pablo. Though the event was screened in theaters all over the world and streamed via Tidal, Jezebel was on hand at Madison…
The cover story of OK!’s December 28 issue, entitled “TYGA IN LOVE WITH UNDERAGE TEEN,” tells the story of a “14-year-old model” whom Tyga had allegedly been chatting with on Instagram. There are screenshots of their alleged conversations (easily faked, I thought), a blurry photo of the teen (probably just a blurred…
Welcome to Midweek Madness, where we go to our new magazine store, ask for the tabloids, get told they’re “not in yet,” take the train FOUR STOPS to the better, bigger, more reliable magazine store, buy the tabloids, take the train FOUR STOPS to get back to the office, read them while walking, and nearly get hit by a…
