LINKS! Kanye and Trump summit, Taylor Swift’s politics, The Good Place grows…
JEZEBEL – Yesterday, Kanye West met with Donald Trump in the Oval Office. As you may have predicted, the Kanye and Trump summit was a masterpiece of baffling statements, including Kanye claiming he supported Trump in 2016 because the red hat made him feel like Superman
THE BLEMISH – At roughly the same time, Taylor Swift broke her long-standing silence on politics, encouraging her fellow Tennesseans to register to vote and endorsing two of the state’s mostly-Democratic candidates for office
VOX – The Good Place is somehow a quarter of the way through its third season already! It might be both unsustainably brilliant and completely lost, but to be honest I would be very happy with thirteen episodes of nothing more than D’Arcy Carden auditioning for the role of Janet
CELEBITCHY – In other First Family news, Melania Trump is trying to both have her cake and throw it on #MeToo
THE BLAST – And in somehow even more hopeless news, here’s the disgusting story of a scammer who got caught posing as a fake p0rn recruiter so he could trick women into having sex with him
LAINEY GOSSIP – Channing Tatum is reportedly dating Jessie J, who just won the Chinese X-Factor; the two of them were spotted on a date at a mini golf course and were reportedly very nice to the spotter. So, good for them
DLISTED – A day after reports that Ben Affleck had broken up with Shauna Sexton, his 22-year-old Playboy model girlfriend-slash-sex partner, Shauna countered by claiming that none of those reports are true and the two of them are still banging away
REALITY TEA – RHONJ star Melissa Gorga revealed she used to have a superfan / stalker who once stole Melissa’s phone so she could get Melissa’s house number off of it and start calling her in the middle of the night
THE ASHLEY’S REALITY ROUNDUP – Kristin Cavallari is trying to drum up interest in a crossover between her new show Very Cavallari and her old show The Hills, which probably has nothing to do with The Hills‘ recent Kristin-free reunion
