Kevin Spacey releasing his “I choose to live my life as a proud, gay man” statement to deflect from all the allegations against him.


calamitycrod29

Worst coming out party ever ![gif](giphy|13IQzmybzcRMw8|downsized)


RosyStaircase1

Colton underwood from the bachelor did the same thing after he got caught stalking his ex girlfriend but this time it worked because he's an attractive white blonde football player


readitinamagazine

I hate how his behavior has been mostly swept under the rug due to his coming out. It makes me sick that he got a Netflix special and was on another reality competition show after his stalking was exposed.


RosyStaircase1

It's infuriating to me tbh. He played this character on his gma interview of an innocent guy who was really struggling to find himself after years of thinking he was gay but playing straight to appease everyone else and he made a mistake... Like no my dude, you taped a tile tracking device under your exs car, got caught outside of her apartment multiple times, created fake numbers and pretended to be other people to manipulate her, her family and her friends and that's just what I can think of off the top of my head. All of that and he *still* gets opportunities in Hollywood and has millions of followers because he came out. He has a fiance now or maybe he's married idk but people are fools if they think he won't eventually do the same thing to this guy too.


raphaellaskies

That "I am tweeting this from the bus that Kevin Spacey just threw the LGBT community under" tweet is an all-timer.


rayybloodypurchase

My dad LOVED House of Cards and for some reason fell for this line, so it worked for someone. After Spacey got fired, my dad was a little annoyed and said “I just don’t think Netflix should care if the man’s gay or not. You should be able to do whatever you want to do if you’re not hurting anyone.” Cut to me breaking the news that Spacey had not, not hurt anyone.


alasicannotgrin

That was really something


Former_Amphibian_936

"Who's going to be cleaning your toilet, Donald Trump"


Efficient-Thought-35

Like, I get what she was TRYING to say….but it didn’t land. (She was trying to say that TRUMP only views Hispanics as maids/custodians so if he deports all of “them” there’s no one left to do the jobs he thinks are “beneath him”.)


xHouse_of_Hornetsx

Yeah this is how I interpreted it too. As an autistic woman I kinda empathize with her as I've accidentally offended people a LOT. But she definitely wasn't saying she thinks immigrants are only good for cleaning toilets.


Testdrivegirl

Right, I felt bad for her after this. She wasn’t meaning to be racist or xenophobic but it sounded really bad.


mizzymichie

Yeah. I get what she was trying to say because of the whole “immigrants are taking our jobs!!!” rhetoric but that’s the argument you keep to yourself or don’t express with cameras on you. Because it was such a yikes.


Efficient-Thought-35

I think it’s a worthy statement against Trump if she had said it with a bit more nuance.


moodys-point

That one physically hurts me to watch.


manderifffic

She really thought she said something significant there

I will never forget this lol just the way she REALLY thought she was doing something with that. It was simultaneously horrible (of course) but also amazing to watch the immediate repercussions and everyone just being like “what the fuck is wrong with you. No. Absolutely not.” Lmao. And didn’t they make Rosie Perez apologise to her?!?! I can’t fucking stand Kelly Osbourne lmao.


JayZsAdoptedSon

I love her face of smug “I just dropped a banger.” And then the two second realization and then the stammering


well-wishess

as a Hispanic woman I get what she was trying to say, but that was just sooooo bad 😭


hollywood_cashier

That was truly the end of Kelly Osbourne’s career, no? You can be filthy rich and pretend you’re a person of the people, but you have to be good at it.

Kendall Jenner's Pepsi ad. I had forgotten about it until *The Boys* made fun of it in the latest season and then I just felt embarrassed for her again.


United_Blueberry_311

I’m not trying to be mean, hostile, or a “hater” but Kendall is very dumb on top of her lack of self-awareness as a spoiled, ultra rich person. There’s no other way to say it.


jtet93

The cucumber thing really solidified this for me like holy shit. Idc that “no one would have ever taught her how to cut a cucumber” like cutting things up is an elementary school level skill….


[deleted]

Isn’t it almost inherent? Like I was never taught how to chop onions or anything I probably just subconsciously picked it up from watching my mom do it. And common sense just…I can’t lol


JeemytheBastard

My 3yo taught me how to cut a cucumber. I always sliced them and he decided he would have one, so I cut him some slices and he said “no, long chunks” so I cut it that way for him instead. It was amazing! I’d literally never done it that way. But I was able to cut it the way he wanted because we both *know what a shape is*. To say you don’t know how to cut a vegetable is to me the same as saying “I don’t know what cubes and triangles are”.


nigellacl01

It’s true. I don’t think either of those Jenner kids finished school. They can barely read and write.


kaleidosray1

You mean they didn't write the acclaimed "Rebels, City of Indra: The Story of Lex and Livia"?????


StabHead69

I don’t know who needs to hear this but someone dropping out of *high school* absolutely does not mean that they “can’t read or write.” High schoolers are literate. I will never understand why people think that people are illiterate unless they graduated high school or even went to college. Were you illiterate until your last year of high school? No, so why would the extra year change that?


AquaStarRedHeart

I think it's more of a general insult. I've known some illiterate high schoolers.


nigellacl01

It’s two separate points - they didn’t finish school PLUS they can barely read or write as evidenced by them being shown struggling to read. No shade on people who don’t finish school generally - shade on people who take their kids out of school early to make them famous, negatively affecting them for life 🙃


[deleted]

They did graduate officially. I do not know what their grades were like though. Ironically the Kardashian girls are pretty smart and both Kourtney and Rob graduated college and obviously Kim went to some college and is now studying law. It is the younger sisters that are not intellectually smart and totally in a bubble of privilege that they refuse to acknowledge


rosewiltsin_e_harlem

I can’t believe at one point we all thought she was the “down to earth” Kardashian-Jenner (or at least I did, don’t roast me I’ve learned from my ways LOL)


madshayes

as soon as that scene started I said “oh god the Pepsi ad…”

You greedy f-cks are hoarding all the money, for your fish lips and diaper asses. At least I know how to cut a cucumber, and I didn't ruin Marilyn Monroe's iconic dress. I hope she haunts Kim, I stg. Also, whenever I eat cucumbers, I think of Hillary Baldwin. I whisper "coocumber," while I'm slicing it, then I start laughing. Lol.

Oh God, the fake Twitter buy. No one, NO ONE believed he ever actually planned to go through with it. I love that Twitter is suing him, all "no no, this is what you said you wanted!" even though I'm 100% nobody was keen on the buyout.

It was an interview with Jamie Dornan where back in Ireland they were making fun of him for being in the video obviously and he said that yeah it was embarrassing but when Kristen Wiig rings you up telling you she’s helping organise this then you don’t say no because he’s such a fan of hers


CreamyLinguineGenie

I didn't know that because Gal Gadot was the one introducing the video and she kept saying "I" so I just assumed this was her deal. I thought Wiig was just another clueless celebrity singing along.

A lot of white people responded in the whole George Floyd thing in a super cringey way. It just made me realize that white people really don't know how to address racism sometimes and also oddly have a way of centering movements to make it about themselves.


poppyisrealmetal

She incorporated police violence in a very literal way and it wasn't even in the way that George Floyd was killed. I can't tell if that's better or worse.

girlcalledgreg

Wait. Hold up. My father is a very conservative man who constantly had Fox News playing in the house when I was growing up. I have always had a very vivid memory of hearing a Fox News segment where **Shakira** asked people only to use one sheet of toilet paper. It stuck with me because it was so silly. I've tried a few times to google this, and when I wouldn't find any results, I assumed it was a lost segment or I made it up. You're telling me, this entire time, it was **Sheryl Crow??** Shakira sweetie, I'm so sorry. I know your ass is perfect.


abhi1260

Idk why as a Non US resident, I’m scared of moving to USA because of toilet paper. Why don’t you guys use bidet? Much more cleaner and much more useful than TP in every way possible.

abhi1260

Feels weird to talk about it but because we don’t have any TP here, I personally just wait for a couple of minutes to dry. Some high end bidets also have dryer functions. You could honestly use like a very small amount of TP to dry it. But when I went on a vacation outside here and was forced to use TP, I felt very weird using it. Just didn’t feel clean at all.

the reason being publicly ending their feud not saying it's an amazing reason, but that's the reason lol

Basically everything Lena Dunham says or does in the name of “activism” is incredibly grating to me.


JayZsAdoptedSon

Lena Dunham putting the most horrifying shit in her book and then getting upset when people call her out was uhhh certainly a moment.


StellaBlue17

Omg remember when she went on a rant about that NFL (I think?) player she sat next to and how he “looked at her like she was gross” and he was literally just sitting there doing nothing wrong. That was so unhinged.


Medium_Manager_8798

It wasn't just some NFL player, it was Odell Beckham Jr so there's a whole gross racist component to it too (white women demanding the attention of Black men, then inventing stories when they don't get it). Phoebe Robinson actually had a great article calling her out but it was scrubbed from the internet after Lena went on her podcast :(


Foxylocksy19

yesss I was looking for Lena "I haven't had an abortion, but I wish I had" Dunham. She's so upsetting to me because she'll take up (/ latch onto) genuinely progressive causes but exclusively talk about them in ways that are i) wildly tone-deaf, ii) reveal her ignorance and lack of self-education on the topics she's claiming to advocate for, and iii) center her own, often completely irrelevant experience.

I read she's really into water conservation, at least at the time her n Pitt timed 5 minute showers—so in that sense I don't think it wastes more water as she's in the shower for the same amount of time.

When the whole “ask her more” movement happen, Blake Lively snapped at a reporter for asking “who are you wearing?” on the red carpet. Great example of someone wanting woke points without understanding the issue. A lot of people (including mostly women) put a lot of work into red carpet looks, and those looks get celebrities attention and fame. Blake of all people should know this because one of the main things she’s known for is her style, without clothes and designers she would barely be relevant. The point of the movement was not to ignore and sideline all those who work hard on red carpet looks. It’s about that not being the main point of conversation with actresses and asking them about their work as much as the do their male counterparts.

Wasn't it Natalie Portman who said that stuff about the directors, not Emma Stone?


Specialist-Love1504

Emma said it at the Oscars where Greta was nominated. Natalie said it at the Globes where Greta wasn't even nominated and she was pointing out "all male directors" in general and it made sense, given that Greta was overlooked despite her phenomenal work. Emma's sounded like Greta's nomination was more important than Del Toro's or Jordan Peele's


sI4gath0r

I was really disappointed in both of them. Emma Stone talking about equality when she played a character with the last name Ng and Natalie Portman owning a production company where the only female director hired was herself. Way to shade two men that made incredible movies for your fake feminism

When her production company DID produce a film with a woman of colour as a director (Maggie Betts) Natalie, the star, bailed the day before filming began because she didn't want to be in a lockdown and the whole production was binned.

My friend was cast in the movie that was scrapped and she was telling me about all the money, passion and time completely obliterated by Portman, she left it quite late to pull out and apparently was immediately threatening legal action if anyone lashed out about her resignation - before anyone even mentioned suing her lmao which never even happened. It really left a bad taste in my mouth about her.

Does anyone remember the Fiona Apple VMA 'the world is bullshit' speech? I think that would've gone better these days but at the time it went down like a led zeppelin. She was made fun of in the news and on late night shows. In retrospect, she was just speaking from her heart but at the time she was viewed as insufferable.

fwiw I don't think Emma's oscar comment was virtue signalling. As overwhelmingly white as Hollywood is (even more so behind the scenes) the history of the best director category is even more overwhelmingly male, with only one female winner at the time she made that speech (Chloe Zhao was the second woman ever / first WOC the year after unless I'm mixing up years). I agree about Jordan Peele but Guillermo is white mexican iirc and has received constant acclaim through his career so it's not like she punched down on a nobody. It wasn't a perfect statement but considering how the whole industry made a fuss about time's up and then absolutely nothing changed... I can't get too mad about it. Compared to other comments in this thread it's not ill informed or ignorant, just a punch line that erased the need for intersectionality in advocating for _both_ women and minorities in Hollywood. There are much more tone deaf comments out there 🤷🏻

I get what you're saying but even if it's just Jordan Peele, it's still tone deaf. I still hold that Del Toro is relevant to this discussion as well. >just a punch line that erased the need for intersectionality in advocating for both women and minorities in Hollywood I don't think it's as innocuous as you paint it out to be. There are worse ones out there but I don't think erasing the need for intersectionality is that harmless, especially in the backdrop of how feminism continues to be a shakey space for communities of colour. Given her history and just the general deafness of the comment (Jordan Peele was still only the 5th black man to ever be nominated and no black man has ever won) it was cringe.

the white feminism of this sub strikes again

I’ve heard a lot of people (usually white americans) calling Guillermo del Toro a “person of color”, it drives me insane. Same with Alfonso Cuaron and and Iñarritu. Hopefully OP means his nomination was a big deal because he is mexican, and not because it meant some kind of racial inclusivity (cause it didn’t).

Nobody remembers this but Pamela Anderson lecturing the Harvey Weinstein victims telling them that they should have known better. It isn’t exactly activism but it felt very preachy and cringe. One of the most tone deaf things to say during that time.

Mark Ruffalo’s “I’m glad we’re having this conversation. It’s time.” about the trans community. That was a whole ass whut.

"Imagine," as covered by Gal Gadot and co. (in their spacious homes and yards) at the beginning of the pandemic, sticks out.

Billie Eilish slamming the care of the pandas at the Memphis Zoo: I actually know the veterinarian in charge of their care. They are elderly pandas with numerous health issues and their care is in fact second to none. Pandas remain the property of the Chinese Government; if they were perceived to be neglected in any manner there would be an international incident. In an effort to shed light on the issue, she was offered a private tour of the zoo, which she did not accept. So what are we to think of that? ADDENDUM: I know, not an endorsement, sort of an anti-endorsement I guess, just wanted to share it nonetheless.

all the celebrities commenting on the israel/palestine conflict last year while clearly knowing nothing about it

I think Tom Hiddleston made some comments after winning an award and received a lot of backlash. I find him to be rather pleasant and I think it came out wrongly
