I was going to make this morning’s top story about Demi Moore allegedly hooking up with Nick Jonas after the two were set up by her daughter Rumer Willis (a rumor I don’t necessarily believe but enjoy considering), but this Page Six story about Matt Lauer forgetting his place in this world is just too infuriating to pass up.
It seems that Lauer is not only still watching the TV show that dumped him after he was accused of sexual misconduct by several women, but offering his creative input to the show’s producers while he is in exile. NBC Leak Haus (aka Page Six) reports Lauer “recently sent a producer an email saying that he felt they had used the wrong music to kick off a segment.”
There are three things about Lauer’s decision to email an NBC producer that surprise me:
1) Today has never—in my time as a viewer—used the right music to kick off a segment. Their incongruous, semi-deranged music choices (presumably a byproduct of NBC-Universal synergy) are a hallmark of the show.
2) Lauer should have known that no Today staffer with an ounce of good sense would be seeking professional advice from the show’s most universally despised (with good reason, I must add) former employee.
3) Lauer has been a famous New Yorker for decades, and should know that an email of that nature is precisely the kind of thing that ends up on a well-trafficked Page Six story.

Mira Sorvino has responded, in her own special way, to her father Paul Sorvino’s desire to harm Harvey Weinstein for what he allegedly did to ruin her career. After journalist Yashar Ali tweeted Sorvino’s 1996 Oscar speech, during which she claims Paul taught her everything she knows, Mira added:
Aw.
