CELEBITCHY – Donald Trump is now claiming “Obama never used the Oval”? What is that even supposed to mean? The surface-level meaning is that Obama literally never worked in the Oval Office, which is untrue. And the deeper implication — that Obama never put the trappings of the presidency to work for him — is also inaccurate
DLISTED – Kirstie Alley decided that the middle of the Winter Olympics was the right time to go on Twitter and trash curling. Am I the only one who finds curling weirdly awesome? Every four years I tune in like a madman during the Olympics (though as soon as the Olympics are done I forget all about it until the next one)
THE BLEMISH – And speaking of the Olympics, it really does seem like a bad idea to use your hands to try and trip a speed skater as she whizzes by your falling body on her razor shoes
JEZEBEL – Marco Rubio went on CNN last night to take the NRA’s side in a gun control town hall meeting featuring parents of some of the students killed in the Parkland school shooting. It did not go well for him
UPROXX – I was already a little interested in the Han Solo spinoff movie after finding out it’s partially influenced by The Big Lebowski, but this Solo trailer re-cut to “Sabotage” by the Beastie Boys has me giddier than it probably should
VOX – The short version of the keto diet is it’s great if you want to treat epilepsy or trick yourself into believing ice cream is great for breakfast
REALITY TEA – RHONJ’s Teresa Giudice is going on Hollywood Medium next season work through her grief over her dead mother and ignore her legal issues for a full hour
THE ASHLEY’S REALITY ROUNDUP – If you’re a cast member for a show on Bravo, and you get an STD from another one of the network’s reality TV stars, your contract forbids you from suing the network. Cue the Vanderpump Rules cast facepalm
LAINEY GOSSIP – Tiffany Haddish, who is already everywhere right now, is about to get even more everywhere-er: She just signed a deal with Netflix to star in an animated show created by one of the people responsible for BoJack Horseman
VERY SMART BROTHAS – Drake’s video for “God’s Plan” — you know, the one where he gives away the video’s $1 million budget to various people around Miami — is ultimately a good deed version of what Red Fang did with “Wires,” and good on him for making it
