Secret Celebrity Gossip #108

[Doyouknowwhatimean]

You can see where Boris gets his rather casual approach with women from...

Boris Johnson's mother tells TOM BOWER his family's deepest secret

Marina Wheeler blamed Stanley for her marriage's collapse and refused to speak to him. Like British-born Boris Johnson's first wife, Allegra Mostyn-Owen, she said Boris's adultery mirrored father's.

The story of Boris Johnson's mum is a very sad untold one.
She was an inpatient at the famous Bethlam MH hospital for many years whilst her children were young. Suffering from post partum and paranoia but now given what we hear about the DV thing things sounded horrible.
Now we are hearing Boris out forward Stanley for a Knighthood.

The Bethlam hospital have an onsite art gallery from occupational therapy from their patients where a lot of her paintings are featured.
Weird the news never report on her, I know she died during lockdown but her story has been left untold.

I wouldn't say JK Rowling has been cancelled at all. She is still massively successful with other projects and on the whole has the public support. She also isn't hiding away, quite the opposite. It's just a very loud and angry minority that are trying to cancel her.

Another Potter actor, Evanna Lynch, has come out and supported her.

I may be generalising here but it seems like the younger generations are more wanting to cancel her and the older ones make their own minds up.
My 18 year old autistic brother has agonised for over a year about giving his HP books away, we’ve had long conversations about it but as autistic people can do he has really focused on it and it has bothered him. He has a couple of trans friends and is on Twitter and I think he is repeating their views instead of forming his own.
I dare say there are a lot of younger people like him just listening to the outrage

Criticising the government’s proposed policies or retweeting tweets that point out the similarity in the language being used by the Home Secretary to that of the 30s is not extreme. It’s a democratic right.

Mark Wahlberg is the one I’ll never understand not getting cancelled. It could be argued he was only a teenager at the time, but we’re not talking about telling a stupid joke or saying something racist on record which would be bad enough, but he actually assaulted black children and was charged with attempted murder of a Vietnamese man.

It would seem Jermaine Defoe’s ex wife has hand enough of being taunted by his current squeeze… she posted these on her Insta

I have no idea who this lot, but assume the male is a football player. But the taunting side piece needs to bear that old saying, if he does it with you, he will do it to you.

 

[Harlot O'Scara]

Ones that annoy me are Melanie Sykes, Kelly Brook and Kirstie Gallagher - all got handsy with their male parters but this conveniently gets glossed over cos some moronic men find them fit.

All are domestic abusers

People are quite quick to shrug off or even defend abuse by women.

Domestic abusers of any gender rarely get their proper comeuppance.

Sean Connery bragged about abusing women and everybody just shrugged it off.

Brad Pitt's attack on Angelina Jolie was well documented and nobody cares.

Emma Roberts got off scott free.

Chris Brown almost killed Rihanna and abused Karreuche Tran (and carried out a homophobic attack on Frank Ocean) but he's still headlining shows, winning awards and being defended and celebrated by the likes of Kelly Rowland.

Countless athletes have attacked their wives/girlfriends but they're back on the court/field/pitch ASAP because they make people money.

Reginald D Hunter gives me the ick. Saw him at Glee Club where he did a joke about raping his own daughter and even started undoing his pants as the audience booed him.

 

[LaBlonde]

Stephen Bear got 21 months inside ... good riddance to bad rubbish.

Taking the piss walking into court probably doesn't seem such a good idea now.

this is honestly the best news i’ve had all week gonna go and read his thread now!

Glastonbury Festival are finally renaming the John Peel stage.

John Peel is 'cancelled': Glastonbury RENAME stage dedicated to BBC DJ

Glastonbury organisers have revealed that the John Peel Stage has been renamed after almost 20 years - after the headliners for 2023 were announced.

Butting in with an Antoine De Caunes fact.

If you have the chance to see the John Paul Gaultier Fashion Freak Show (you should, it's amazing!), then you'll see Antoine pop up in a video segment, dressed as Queen Elizabeth II, supping tea and sneering at Gaultier's fashions. It's a great throwback to their Eurotrash days.

 

[L3moning]

Bill Cosby was cancelled.

Rightly.

 

[FenellaTheWitch]

'Heavy handed overreaction' ? he’s a sports presenter not a politician. We don’t want to hear his views.

The BBC have tiptoed around him too long and haven’t even sacked him.

comparing the government to a regime that killed mass millions is utterly wrong. Still it was only the Jews Eh!

And you don't have to hear his views if you don't want to ... he didn't say it in the middle of MOTD he said it on his personal social media account. If it wasn't for the furore I'd have never have known what he posted.

The BBC and Government really need to get acquainted with the Barbra Streisand effect ...

What is the Streisand effect? The Streisand effect is a name for the phenomenon in which attempts to hide, censor, or prevent access to something have the opposite result—the unintended consequence of drawing far more attention to that thing.

 

[Tiggerhappy]

Absolutely but she’s not free from the consequences of doing so. When your views alienate people then you’re gonna start finding yourself in limited company and with less opportunities. She’s still getting work though so I don’t think she’s in any danger of being left in poverty anytime soon.

What should be the consequences of believing women have vaginas?
---
I don't condone her antisemitism whatsoever, but gender critical views aren't the same thing.

 

[Jelly Bean]

He looks like a twat basically

He seems to have one acting face these days. Sort of shocked surprise. You know the one I mean

ETA

 

[HaloGirl]

We discussed a lot in the last thread. Greggs still haunts us. Some of us remember Atlantic 252. Sinitta and Sinatra are twins and how you have your bacon roll! Carry on!

 

[Cupid_Stunt]

Pig ugly inside and outside. Gopping when fat and gopping now slim.

I don’t know what gopping means but presumably it’s a relevant negative word for him

The way he laid into Nicola from Girls Aloud’s looks was nasty as well as she was only about 16/17 at the time. Like he can call out somebody’s looks

 

[FenellaTheWitch]

I felt quite emotional, that will never happen again. A lot of it was unrehearsed. He asked Judi to do some Shakespeare and she was thrown. She did a sonnet. Maureen Lipman and Harriet Walter wrote poems, seriously clever ones. Sheila Hancock came out of hospital yesterday, with pneumonia. She was a bit croaky but her usual irreverent self. Great blow dry! Patricia Routledge was frail on her feet but not in responses. Floella sang with no accompaniment. She had such confidence.

I can't think of Floella Benjamin without thinking of Play School.

 

[Allflightscancelled]

I also have v weak dog walking adjacent tea, similar to the Sheila Hancock tea a few pages back. A couple of years ago we were sitting on our local beach (Dorset) next to a chap who had a very friendly lurcher who kept coming over for a chat. ‘Sorry’ he says. ‘We like dogs’ we say. Therein follows a desultory dog-related chat, then he leaves.

‘Was that Keith Allen’ says me to Mr Allflights.
‘Yes’ says Mr Allflights. ‘Nice dog’.

 

[Miss Begotten]

I can’t stand Linekar but I’m with him here. What he said is irrelevant it’s the heavy handed overreaction which confirms to me my long held view that the Beeb are right wing scum. When people are losing jobs for a comment against the government the UK is turning into 1984.

Yup.
Particularly when you compare the treatment of Lineker to Fiona Bruce, who last night on Question Time utterly minimised the wife beating shitbag Stanley Johnson breaking his wife’s nose. But then Bruce has form for being a Tory mouthpiece.
Nice to see Ian Wright and Alan Shearer backing Lineker.

 

[Jelly Bean]

Reginald D Hunter gives me the ick. Saw him at Glee Club where he did a joke about raping his own daughter and even started undoing his pants as the audience booed him.

Eeuww that reminds me of a horrible routine Phil Jupitus did about imagining his 16 year old daughter 'spreadeagled' on her bed while her boyfriend 'did her'.
