CELEBITCHY – After spending years advocating violence against the media as well as his opponents, Donald Trump would like the country to “unify” in the face of literal bombs being sent to the offices of Barack Obama, Hillary and Bill Clinton, Joe Biden, CNN, and around eight of Trump’s other political enemies
VOX – Here’s an interview with Ralph Basham, director of the Secret Service from 2003 to 2006, on how exactly the federal officials tasked with catching the bomb maker(s) will go about doing that
DLISTED – Ice-T was arrested for cruising through a George Washington Bridge toll booth in his brand-new McLaren, and though that’s a tried-and-true DGAF move it looks like his alibi is actually legit. Meaning the whole thing was just an honest mistake…but he’s still Ice-T
JEZEBEL – A brand new “Serial-esque” podcast will explore the death of adult actress August Ames, who killed herself last December after being bullied on social media for an allegedly homophobic tweet
THE BLEMISH – For now, Camille Kostek is probably still best-known as Rob Gronkowski’s girlfriend. That’s likely to change in early 2019 with the release of the new Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue, for which Camille is the first official Rookie. (Though she’s posed for them before? Anyway she’s posing for them again and there are a bunch of bikini shots already, so go to town)
REALITY TEA – RHOBH star Brandi Glanville’s house was robbed in broad daylight…while Brandi and her two sons were at home. Apparently Brandi didn’t have the security system turned on. I would love to know more about exactly how large and spread-out this house-slash-estate is
LAINEY GOSSIP – Sandra Bullock is starring in a Netflix movie called Bird Box, which is coming out this December for your binging pleasure. Apparently the movie is more or less the exact same thing as A Quiet Place, except this time instead of not being able to talk the characters have to do everything blindfolded
THE ASHLEY’S REALITY ROUNDUP – The Jerry Springer Show wrapped up production earlier this year after 27 seasons, but Jerry himself isn’t going anywhere. He’s got a new daytime courtroom show called Judge Jerry in production; it’s expected to begin airing next autumn
THE BLAST – Someone stole “a bunch of expensive equipment” from the set of The Mandalorian, the super-secretive Star Wars TV series. Apparently the equipment included cameras and maybe a memory card and so now a bunch of footage and plot points might make their way online, which would be scary for executives if everyone weren’t suffering from Star Wars fatigue already
