Cheers? Tonight’s Jersey Shore: Family Vacation featured the aftermath of Deena, JWOWW, and Snooki’s infamous wedding speech for Angelina, which ended with a bevy of boos from the Staten Island crowd and a “that was so f*cked up” from the bride. “I know that my husband that I just married is extremely hurt that these girls are saying this about his wife,” Angelina said. “It’s the wrong f*cking place; it’s the wrong time. You don’t do this at somebody’s wedding.” Here’s what else went down: Angelina gets pissed… The bride initially laughed off the “jokes,” but then it hit her. Though Chris encouraged Ang to not let it ruin her night, she wasn’t having it, dubbing the bridesmaids...
The third night was “the charm” for Double Shot at Love, bringing Season 2’s very first hookup. On tonight’s episode, Brandon hit a “home run” (his explanation) with Marissa after he pivoted from saying he wanted something casual (while partying at Drai’s earlier in the day) to saying he would consider marrying her (when the group was at Chateau several hours later). “Wait, what?” is how Marissa reacted — just like us. Meanwhile, B-Lashes worried her East Coast, Beast Coast Crew member was “playing with fire.” Regardless, after getting cozy-ish in the club, Marissa tried not to resit and cave in to Brandon — but soon, they were in bed and, according to Mealissa, “Yeah.” The next morning, Hugh Hefner B...
Catelynn and Tyler have always wanted a son — remember when he exclaimed, “Son of a gun!” when he saw pink confetti at Nova’s gender reveal? Or when Cate stated, “I don’t want another girl” at Vaeda’s? During tonight’s Teen Mom OG finale, Catelynn and Ty continued their ongoing discussion about having “another one” but they both wanted to explore the possibility of ensuring a little boy. “I want to see a gender selection doctor,” Cate told Tyler and his mom Kim. “I thought about making an appointment just to find out more. What is it?” The 16 and Pregnant lovebirds got details from the reproductive endocrinologist: The process takes about 10 weeks, including three weeks of birth control and then, after menstruati...
Mackenzie and her family commemorated Angie’s first birthday (she would have been 51) without their beloved matriarch during this week’s Teen Mom OG finale. And the mother of three made sure to honor her parent with “a very special day” to help everyone “heal” and celebrate the things Angie loved most. “We probably just have to get together and run,” Mackenzie told her sister Whitney. “That’s so important because that gave us extra time with her.” Mackenzie ultimately planned for the family to be together, and she opted to run for 51 minutes. All while “thinking about her life and thankful for the mom God gave me.” Later, Mackenzie met up with her loved ones for dinner, including her dad Brad and sister Whitney. ...
Since the moment its first season released on Netflix in 2017, the Selena Gomez-produced drama 13 Reasons Why has propelled a spectrum of difficult, yet passionate conversations. Exploring such painful topics as bullying, suicide, sexual assault that affect many teens today, it has sparked powerful responses across lines: appreciation from young fans for its raw takes, as well as genuine, fearful ire from parents. And now, it has all come to a close. Its fourth and final season hit Netflix earlier this month. The closest to fantastical horror that the series has delivered to date, the season follows a group of high school students covering up the murder of a football player, all while preparing for their freshman year of college. No longer guided by the Jay Asher novel on which it’s premis...
“What is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?” Not everyone knows the answer to that cult-favorite query, least of all news anchors. Fox News proved as much to be true when they fell for a similarly popular Monty Python and the Holy Grail joke while covering Seattle’s Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone, going so far as to mistakenly cite a quote from the film as fact. Now, John Cleese is mocking them for it, reports UPROXX. It all began when Martha MacCallum, the host of Fox News’ segment The Story, was reporting on the CHAZ zone in Seattle, claiming that there were leadership problems within the group. As proof of such, MacCallum pointed to a screenshot of a Reddit post entitled “I didn’t vote for Raz”. (“Raz” refers to Raz Simone, the rapper and alleged unofficial leader of CHAZ.) “I ...
Introducing the “three sausages!” During this week’s Double Shot at Love with DJ Pauly D and Vinny premiere, Derynn was told by the Jersey Shore guys to “bring some friends” to Las Vegas. So the Cat Lady brought a few pals from Hoboken. “They like to party; they like to have fun. I’m excited for you guys to meet them,” Derynn told Maria, B-Lashes, Marissa and Suzi at the airport. The catch: The pals weren’t ladies. To quote Suzi, “Oh my God, Derynn’s friends are boys. Yaas!” So who are the “cugines”? There’s Brandon (an emcee/DJ), “Pool Party Papi” Antonio and car connoisseur Nicky. And who made the best first impression? “None of them!” Derynn joked with MTV News. “I bro...
The Sopranos has been off the air for over a decade. Yet ever since Steve Perry’s pipes cut off by that now-iconic fade to black, fans have wondered, “What the hell happened to Tony Soprano?” Now, exactly 13 years to the day, we have our answer. In a recent roundtable discussion promoting his new book, The Sopranos Sessions, creator David Chase slipped up and confirmed the fate of his legendary character, putting an end to the exhausting debate that has left fans twisting and turning forever. But first, some context: If you recall, the series finale, “Made In America”, culminates at the real-life New Jersey diner Holsten’s, where the entire Sopranos family gathers around for a basket of onion rings. It’s a charming portrait that suggests an alternative, almost Rockwellian existence for the...
In more signs that the times, they are a-changin’, streaming services have recently been purging themselves of movies and shows that depict racist or otherwise problematic characters. The latest such shift comes from Netflix, which has yanked British comedy show The Mighty Boosh because of a blackface character named The Spirit of Jazz. Portrayed by Noel Fielding (co-presenter on The Great British Bakeoff), The Spirit of Jazz appeared in a handful of episodes during The Mighty Boosh’s three-series run from 2004 to 2007. Described as the ghost of Howlin’ Jimmy Jefferson, the character saw Fielding painting his face black with white skeleton-like highlights, speaking in a New Orleans accent, and wearing a dreadlocked wig under a tall, white top hat. It’s far from the only problemat...
For the first time in its 25-season, 18-year run, ABC has cast a Black Bachelor. Matt James, a 28-year-old real estate broker, entrepreneur, and community organization founder, will search for love on the forthcoming season of The Bachelor, according to The Hollywood Reporter. James was previously set to be a contestant on Clare Crawley’s upcoming season of The Bachelorette before production was shutdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He is also known as the friend and roommate of former Bachelorette contestant Tyler Cameron. “We know we have a responsibility to make sure the love stories we’re seeing onscreen are representative of the world we live in and we are proudly in service to our audience,” ABC Entertainment president Karey Burke said in a statement announcing James’ casting. “This...
Nickelodeon broke the Internet on Saturday by confirming that SpongeBob Squarepants is a member of the LGBTQ+ community. “Celebrating #Pride with the LGBTQ+ community and their allies this month and every month,” Nickelodeon tweeted on Saturday. The caption was accompanied by photos of the Avatar character Korra, who identifies as Queer, and actor Michael D. Cohen, who is Transgender (via Out). Though Nickelodeon did not outright confirm SpongeBob’s sexuality, the implication is pretty clear. It’s worth noting, as Out points out, that SpongeBob creator Stephen Hillenburg previously said the characters on his show are asexual. As asexual people are considered part of the LGBTQ+ community, that may explain why SpongeBob was included in Nickelodeon’s Pride tweet. Or, he’s gay. Who c...
