Who, What, When, Where?!: Miscellaneous Celebrity News 2.0

Quote

Rebel Wilson has made her latest romance Instagram official with a post that doubles as a coming out for the comedic actor. “I thought I was searching for a Disney prince… but maybe what I really needed all this time was a Disney Princess,” she wrote alongside a photo of herself and her new boo, Ramona Agruma. She added a couple heart emoji, a rainbow, and the hashtag “#loveislove.”

This is the first time Wilson has explicitly confirmed her relationship with Agruma, founder of the sustainable loungewear brand Lemon Ve Limon, but she hasn’t exactly been hiding it either. In March, Wilson and Agruma appeared at the Vanity Fair Oscars party together. And in the past few months, Agruma has appeared frequently on Wilson’s Instagram, starting in January. Per Wilson’s posts, it appears that the duo celebrated Valentine’s Day together, Wilson’s birthday in March, and the success of her Netflix movie Senior Year in May. They even met Dionne Warwick together at an event in April.

As far as I can tell, the women he's sleeping with agree to the arrangement. It's really only Nick Cannon's business if he wants to spread his seed around with multiple women, as long as he has willing partners then I really don't care if that's what he wants to do.

I might not agree with it or see the logic, but I'm not Nick Cannon or the mothers to his kids, so I have no opinion on how he conducts himself. As long as he's not hurting anyone, then I don't care what he does.

What did he hope to accomplish by showing up?   It's just bizarre.

The term "Instagram Official" makes me want to slap somebody.  Primarily, the person that uses the term.  It just sounds so idiotic to me. 

If you commit to a relationship and DON'T post it on Instagram, is it not official?

What if you don't do Instagram? Is  your relationship considered less than in some way? I say that in jest but people take social media waaaaay too seriously.  The View earlier this week analyzed why Lori Harvey deleted all her pics with Michael B. Jordan off her Instagram. It was an actual hot topic.

Per some stuff I recently read, apparently her family was instrumental in getting the annulment against both his will and hers, so I can see how that may still be a sore point. But clearly Britney didn't run to him as soon as she was freed, so I imagine he lives in a weirdly delusional world where she is still somehow being prevented from seeing him. That clip of him running through the wedding was so embarrassing that I couldn't finish it.

If Mr. Cannon and his respective paramours' canoodling ONLY produced pet rocks or Gummi bears, I'd agree with you.

However  they've produced living, breathing HUMANS who now will have to deal with the fact that they were conceived for the express purpose of satiating their male DNA Donor's ego and possibly via their female DNA Donors' to attempt to fulfill celeb fantasies. IOW, they've been conceived solely due to their so-called parents' selfishness and, AFIAK, NOT because   Mr. Cannon and the  co-parents considered every single one of their own individual needs and desires to be secondary to wanting to nurture, caretake and guide helpless individual babies from birth through toddlerhood, childhood and adolescence all the way to adulthood!  Thus, there ARE folks getting hurt if not damaged by this!

I'm just going to leave this here. Nick Cannon talks to Men's Health about his unorthodox life and relationships with his kids, which he says is working out quite well. Make of that what you will.

Sure, it's not the conventional form of parenting or child-rearing...but I'm not Mr. Cannon or his lovers. I'm not his kids. I have no way of knowing if this truly is an ego trip and his kids will get hurt or if the arrangement is actually working far better than I could expect. I have not seen any reports that suggest he is failing at his duties or his obligations, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

A little more strangeness at Britney's wedding, even though he was supposed to be there, her brother was a no show

One odd family moment ... as we'd told you, Britney's brother, Bryan, was supposed to attend -- he and a date we're all dressed up shortly before the wedding -- but he ended up no-showing for the big night.

Both Justin & Haley had covid, then they both end up with strange medical problems (she had a stroke-like incident) which you don't normally see in people in their mid twenties. IMO, it's related.

I had to double check the headline about Jason Alexander crashing Britney's wedding to make sure it wasn't an Onion story. Her kids didn't attend either, which seems to be their choice but they haven't made a statement beyond wishing her well.

They've been really test the "in sickness" part of their wedding vows. I've never been the biggest fan of Bieber, but I do get the feeling that they're in this for real and not just a photo op like the Kardashian/Jenner wedding farces.

He really is disgusting in that video and he's lucky he didn't choke on that hotdog.

Jimmy was going for something funny.  But what ended up really happening is that he had to watch the rest of the game covered in beer.  I have to admit that I find that thought more amusing than his intended joke.

I think Kate Winslet has gotten quite a bit of grief for having three children with three different men.

I like the person who pointed out that if a woman sleeps around, she has one pregnancy.  When Nick sleeps around, the number of pregnancies can be astronomical.

I believe the hot dog dumped in beer is a continuation of something that happened on his show with Elisabeth Moss recently.  Before he asked Moss about it, he showed a candid video of a Yankee fan who did it at a game.  Moss said it wasn’t a big deal, so they both tried it.    He has a running theme on his show about odd food combinations.  The recent candid thing doesn’t bother me, maybe because I really like Fallon.  😝He doesn’t take himself too seriously and loves to laugh.  Here’s a link for the scene on his show.  It’s towards the end of the clip.

But would Mr. Fallon have wasted a perfectly good hot dog and beer if the camera hadn't zoomed on him? 

I'm also wondering if he might have asked the broadcasters in advance to pan on him. 

BTW, at times like this I wish there were an 'eyeroll' icon in these parts!

First of all, to my knowledge no doctor has actually made that diagnosis one way or the other. So I'm not drawing either conclusion.

Second of all, neither event would be surprising. Unfortunate for the Biebers, but not surprising. We're still learning a lot about COVID-19, and with literally billions infected and/or vaccinated, there will be a few outliers in how they react to the condition. All this does is just point to why anecdotes are poor scientific evidence- because they don't say anything meaningful about the prevalence of the incident reported.

Jimmy Fallon's the same guy who, as a New Yorker, played a picture-perfect Red Sox fan. That had to take some guts, at least and shows his great impression abilities.

I got a great "superfan" vibe from that video so I enjoyed it quite a bit. Yeah, he's now got a beer-soaked shirt but...I'm sure by that point he's too drunk to realize it or care. Plus, he's Jimmy Fallon...I'm sure he can afford a few new ones.

If it means anything for the people who didn't like this stunt, at least take note of this- Fallon's beloved Rangers still lost the game, 3-1 to the Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 5 of their playoff series, meaning they'll have to go back to Tampa for Game 6 where if they lose, they're eliminated. Not easy. Have I also mentioned the Lightning are the two time defending Stanley Cup champs?

I anticipate a few more beer-soaked shirts by the time this is over.

Kate Hudson has 3 kids with 3 different fathers, and she was I think, only married to the first one, Chris Robinson. 

Who really cares if people are married or not?  The very devout are all for it, until it becomes inconvenient, then they divorce just as fast as the heathens.  And the word "Wedlock" is so true, for such an antiquated notion as marriage.  Most people these days just want an excuse for a huge party, and get tired of the actual marriage pretty quickly.

I'm not a Rebel Wilson fan and agree with everyone who was rolling their eyes at the term "Instagram official," but apparently Wilson announced it when she did and the way she did because an Australian newspaper was getting ready to out her. A columnist for the newspaper then had the audacity to be offended that she responded to their asking her for comment on the relationship by getting ahead of the story rather than just be outed by them. I don't blame her for trying to get ahead of the story and control the narrative on her terms (and scoop the assholes who then wanted to act like they were doing her a favor).

I've heard the same regarding the British press. 

Funny you should mention Kate Hudson. I remember back in the day Britney Spears complained why did she get backlash for sexy photoshoots when Kate was barely older than her and no one said anything about that either. With that, imo not that it was her job to parent America, but her fan base was small kids, Kate's never was. 

Having a few kids with a few different people isn't my ideal, but stuff happens. Not using protection and trying to get a many women pregnant as possible is a whole other story.

The earliest incident of this horrible trend I retain in my memory is when The Enquirer was going to out Danny Pintauro, who was a public figure for having appeared as a kid/teen on Who's the Boss? years before, and his TV mom Judith Light advised him the best way to salvage this despicable act was to go ahead and give an interview so his own words would be the focus of the story; turning the tables resulted in a surprisingly positive article, although of course he should never have been put in that position to begin with.  (She's as fantastic an activist as she is an actor, thus it has stuck in my mind, especially because, with all the child actor horror stories, Alyssa Milano and Danny Pintauro both still adore and credit their TV parents.)

Now there are even better ways to get ahead of the story, rather than having to talk to the odious publication.  I don't know anything about Wilson, but good for her getting one over on this cretin who's now whining that instead of answering the publication's inappropriate questions she posted her story on her own and "scooped" them.

Teen idols have a way of hanging around in our culture.  Some because folks relate to them from their own youth, and others because people love to see them fail.  Case in point - Britney Spears, and even stranger (to me), Bobby Brown.  I mean I can't count how many shows pop up on the TV schedule about Bobby friggin' Brown.

Perhaps but in the case of Justin Bieber, as someone noted above, Justin is still "hanging around" because his music is still very popular. I understand that may be surprising to some who maybe aren't fans, (personally, I've only liked maybe a handful of Justin Bieber's songs) but the reality is his music still sells very well and so he's still very much profitable in the industry.

I think he made a case for himself as a credible adult musician with "Love Yourself." Since then he's had a lot of flops but he knows how to manipulate numbers and collaborate with other artists (DJ Khaled, Ed Sheeran, etc.) to keep himself relevant. And then every so often he stumbles on a song like "Peaches" that is a genuine hit.

Those of us who aren't Mr. Bieber's fans who want him and Mrs. Bieber to have good health but otherwise would like the fanbase to consider that he comes across  to others as an annoying (and possibly toxic) person. Perhaps if enough of the current fanbase draws that conclusion then he'll fade away to have a physically  healthy life away from the spotlight.
