Speaker 1: From Los Angeles, PHP.
Speaker 2: One and only Perez Hilton. Everybody, Welcome to the PHP
Speaker 2: and a happy New Year to you on Booker of
Speaker 2: course that would be Perez. A lot happening over the break.
Speaker 1: My brain is racing with so many thoughts. First, a disclaimer,
Speaker 1: the teas that I'm about to give you is just
Speaker 1: a goal. We may not get to it all because
Speaker 1: there's too much show today. However, if we don't get
Speaker 1: to something, we will talk about it on the Patreon
Speaker 1: on Thursday. We will definitely though, be talking about Blake
Speaker 1: Lively and Justin Beldoni, and then also going to try
Speaker 1: to get to Megan Markle and a lot of controversy
Speaker 1: around her some surprising Brad and Angelina news Alabama Barker.
Speaker 1: A lot of people are calling her a liar. I'll
Speaker 1: explain what's going on there, Justin bieber Ben and Jen,
Speaker 1: Wendy Williams, Beyonce, the Golden Globes and more. But first,
Speaker 1: we've been doing this show this year is our tenth year. Wow,
Speaker 1: it's our ten year anniversary starting this month, and I
Speaker 1: think one of the reasons people keep coming back to us,
Speaker 1: well a few our show is actually good and we're
Speaker 1: always on Well, I don't know about you, but I'm
Speaker 1: always honest. Sometimes I feel like you're putting on an act.
Speaker 1: What yes, no, Yes, there's no act here, and that's fine.
Speaker 1: But I'm always honest, so I have to I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna cry.
Speaker 2: There's a crying portion of this.
Speaker 1: I was crying just before I went live. Why it's
Speaker 1: just so exhausting. I got banned from TikTok again. But
Speaker 1: if any of you had been following me on there
Speaker 1: and enjoying my exclusive TikTok video or enjoying my live streams,
Speaker 1: I already set up a new account. If you want
Speaker 1: to follow me, It's Perez Hilton twenty seven. I'm looking forward.
Speaker 1: Perez Hilton twenty seven, give it a follow. It's just,
Speaker 1: you know, I like to be honest. As I just reiterated,
Speaker 1: I don't have few money in the bank. I'm like
Speaker 1: the majority of Americans and people worldwide that have to
Speaker 1: work for a living, and I was really able to
Speaker 1: monetize TikTok and it helps my family a lot, you know.
Speaker 1: So it's it's just it's just really sad. But maybe
Speaker 1: somebody that works at TikTok listens to our show and
Speaker 1: they'll say, you know what, Yes, whatever happened in twenty
Speaker 1: twenty happened, But for the past twenty plus times he's
Speaker 1: not broken any rules.
Speaker 2: Well, is TikTok going to be unplugged or is that
Speaker 2: not going to happen.
Speaker 1: I believe that they will lose their flimsy appeal to
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. They're making this, you know, First Amendment
Speaker 1: attempt at save us, but I don't think that's strong enough.
Speaker 1: They should have come out with another legal argument, or
Speaker 1: multiple legal arguments in addition to the First Amendment. But
Speaker 1: Donald Trump will say, you know what, I'm gonna give
Speaker 1: you twelve months to sell to an American company, and
Speaker 1: then it's totally in TikTok and Bite Dance's hands. They've
Speaker 1: said repeatedly they cannot and will not sell to an
Speaker 1: American company. But after they lose their final appeal, because
Speaker 1: there's no more appealing if they lose to the Supreme Court.
Speaker 1: After they lose in the Supreme Court, then I think
Speaker 1: I hope they'll change their mind. It just sucks because
Speaker 1: you can't monetize Instagram. You can monetize YouTube, and I'm
Speaker 1: trying to grow my YouTube follow that at Perez Hilton.
Speaker 2: We'll start a new one. And like you said, you
Speaker 2: don't need a lot of followers, you just need good content.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Perez Hilton, twenty seven, I love you all all right.
Speaker 1: In other sad news, like actually real sad news, just
Speaker 1: gonna mention them because I don't really want to talk
Speaker 1: about it in full, because there's nothing fun or sexy
Speaker 1: or even really worth talking about. Over the break, the
Speaker 1: husband of actress Aubrey Plaza died by suicide.
Speaker 2: I didn't know she was married. That's where I would start.
Speaker 2: I had no idea.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't know she was married either. They've been
Speaker 1: married a few years. His name was Jeff Baena, and
Speaker 1: you know, he was a creative working as a director
Speaker 1: and a writer and sending light to all of his
Speaker 1: loved ones.
Speaker 2: And her, she really is like this performance being twenty
Speaker 2: four to seven actor, you know what I mean. Like
Speaker 2: she goes on to a talk show, she holds character
Speaker 2: constantly and it's wild because you really don't get a
Speaker 2: glimpse inside of her real life, like what's really going on.
Speaker 2: She's a big basketball fan. Apparently she goes to basketball games.
Speaker 2: But outside of that, I didn't know a lot about her.
Speaker 1: I mean, I know she's half Latina, That's what I
Speaker 1: know about her. I think she was on Parks and
Speaker 1: Recreation that I never watched that show.
Speaker 2: So well, she was on that really great show, the
Speaker 2: Showtime one with Jennifer Coolidge.
Speaker 1: Oh White Lotus, Yes.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, she was phenomenal.
Speaker 1: So sending positive vibes to all of them, and also
Speaker 1: in the gay community. Just yesterday it was announced that
Speaker 1: the very first winner of RuPaul's Drag Race, UK the Vivian,
Speaker 1: passed away and a lot of queer people are very
Speaker 1: sad today. So sending all of the Vivian's loved ones
Speaker 1: and fans light as well. All right, now, let's get
Speaker 1: to the real let's get to light, let's get to
Speaker 1: a distraction, let's get to positive stuff. I need our
Speaker 1: patreon folks to take to the message board on Patreon
Speaker 1: and fill the both of us in. Because I don't
Speaker 1: listen to these other shows. I don't really understand what happened.
Speaker 1: I can't even recap it or have a conversation because
Speaker 1: I'm not plugged it. I don't know. Apparently there was
Speaker 1: some drama with Jeff Lewis, the former Bravo personality turned
Speaker 1: radio host on Sirius XM, and Justin Martindale, who we
Speaker 1: talked about at one point on our podcast because he
Speaker 1: had drama with Heather McDonald.
Speaker 2: I replayed the Heather McDonald era just last week, so
Speaker 2: it seems very timely that we're talking about this, And
Speaker 2: as a matter of fact, on the message board, I
Speaker 2: saw all this back.
Speaker 1: And yeah, but I don't know what it is.
Speaker 2: Well, I thought it had to do with the episode
Speaker 2: that I just pushed.
Speaker 1: No, no, no no, it's just.
Speaker 2: Weird timing that I happened to throw that up with
Speaker 2: just a couple of days ago. But yeah, I understand
Speaker 2: their beefing. I couldn't care less podcasters bitching at one another.
Speaker 2: Good luck, have fun. You're getting mileage out of it.
Speaker 2: If we could take a shit on other shows and
Speaker 2: get some mileage out of it, I would love to
Speaker 2: do it. But I don't care enough to listen to
Speaker 2: their shitty shows to even have an opinion about what
Speaker 2: she does. I've been on her show. It's a funck,
Speaker 2: a total bore. I don't care about him. I barely
Speaker 2: know who he is. He has a serious show that
Speaker 2: no one listens to, So who gives a shit. So
Speaker 2: that's where I stand on all this, But at least
Speaker 2: I'm giving you two cents.
Speaker 1: I think it has something to do with Jeff Lewis
Speaker 1: talking smack about Justin Martindale. They had a falling out.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I do know that Jeff Lewis. I
Speaker 1: think he's a loose cannon, which makes for interesting listening
Speaker 1: or watching because you never know what he's gonna say.
Speaker 1: But he's like a real loose cannon, Like he will
Speaker 1: talk smack about his boyfriend that he's dating and his friends.
Speaker 2: Like.
Speaker 1: He won't even just talk smack about people he doesn't like.
Speaker 1: He'll talk smack about people that he likes, which is weird.
Speaker 1: You shouldn't be doing that about your friends and lovers.
Speaker 2: Well, maybe he's kind of interesting. Who knows. I've never
Speaker 2: heard of him, never heard the show, have no intentions
Speaker 2: of listening to the show.
Speaker 1: So on our Patreon message board, please film I'm curious
Speaker 1: phill us in And also, if you're not signed up
Speaker 1: to our Patreon, I would love it if you joined
Speaker 1: at patreon dot com slash Perez Hilton. All right, nice
Speaker 1: celebrities also had a pretty good Christmas Britney Spears and
Speaker 1: her son celebrated Christmas together. One of her two sons,
Speaker 1: Jade and James Sean Preston not so much yet ready
Speaker 1: to reconcile with his mom, at least publicly. Who knows
Speaker 1: what's happening behind the scenes. But I'll reiterate what I've
Speaker 1: said in the past. There might be ulterior motives, which
Speaker 1: a lot of Brittany fans believe. They're skeptical. They think, oh,
Speaker 1: child support payments have stopped, this kid is just using
Speaker 1: his mother for money. But I believe that Brittany needs
Speaker 1: her children. I think it will only be a good thing.
Speaker 1: And she's got the money to support him, so it's
Speaker 1: gonna help her. Then let it happen.
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know if it's going to help her.
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's the right play on it.
Speaker 1: I do think it'll help her.
Speaker 2: I just think it makes her feel better.
Speaker 1: I think it'll help her. I really, I really believe that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think there's anything going to change the
Speaker 2: trajectory of her state of mind. But whatever she seems happy,
Speaker 2: is what I'll say.
Speaker 1: If she had been engaging in substance abuse.
Speaker 2: Oh, in that regard.
Speaker 1: Yes, having her son or sons in her life might
Speaker 1: help her. That's what I meant.
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, I did see some video of the kid
Speaker 2: like opening a present or something, and she's got this
Speaker 2: weird voice.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw that one. And then he like he's like,
Speaker 1: oh shit, I gotta say thanks mom. Like there was
Speaker 1: like an awkward pause there. Oh thanks so much. Yeah.
Speaker 2: It was so weird and enjoyable at the same time.
Speaker 1: Oh goodness. And she also got some injury over the holiday.
Speaker 1: She's always getting injured and having some drama. It's just exhausting. Also,
Speaker 1: Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez got together for a little
Speaker 1: Christmas gift exchange, just the two of them, not their children,
Speaker 1: which I just still find so weird. I don't get it.
Speaker 1: If they were gonna talk divorce because they're still not divorce,
Speaker 1: they could have done that by email, by text, by zoom,
Speaker 1: not in person, and not giving each other Christmas gifts. Like,
Speaker 1: I don't get it. I guess I should be happy.
Speaker 1: You know, the split did seem very acrimonious, and they're
Speaker 1: in a peaceful place now. But you can be peaceful
Speaker 1: with somebody without meeting up with them and giving them
Speaker 1: a fucking Christmas gift.
Speaker 2: They don't have kids together. Yeah that's the thing. Yes,
Speaker 2: it's odd that they can't fully separate, but you know,
Speaker 2: this is a relationship that's spawned decades, so maybe it's
Speaker 2: a little confusing. I still go back to I think
Speaker 2: she put her foot down when it came to him
Speaker 2: drinking or abusing drugs or whatever it is, and said, hey,
Speaker 2: this is what it is. I still love you, but
Speaker 2: I cannot go on with you. And I think it's
Speaker 2: as simple as that. And there's still a lot of
Speaker 2: love there, yea, and whatever. Maybe they'll figure something out,
Speaker 2: maybe they won't. Our listeners on the message board, I
Speaker 2: guess Entertainment tonight did some retrospect of Ben and Jen
Speaker 2: and I'm all over it apparently so people were taking
Speaker 2: screenshots and cool to me, So I'll send a couple
Speaker 2: to you.
Speaker 1: Well, that was my theory as well. I think I
Speaker 1: shared it before you did, just saying.
Speaker 2: I think that was my original theory for years now.
Speaker 2: What's been going on with them? But whatever, we'll never know.
Speaker 1: Also on Christmas Day, Beyonce it took to Netflix to
Speaker 1: perform at the NFL game, one of the two that day,
Speaker 1: the one in Texas, and first of all, I thought
Speaker 1: she was sensational. I personally think this was the best
Speaker 1: I've ever seen Beyonce on television, even though as a
Speaker 1: fan I enjoyed her Coachella performance.
Speaker 2: That's where I was going to go. I think that
Speaker 2: was the best performance I've ever seen when it comes
Speaker 2: to a musical act. That was mesmerizing.
Speaker 1: Her top three performances are Coachella, the super Bowl, and
Speaker 1: now this. What I loved about this is that there
Speaker 1: were so many layers to it. I feel like technically
Speaker 1: she's never been better. Everything from the vocals that were
Speaker 1: flawless and live, not a single hiccup, to the choreography,
Speaker 1: the hairography, the costuming, everything was a hundred on one hundred.
Speaker 1: And I also loved that I learned afterwards there was
Speaker 1: so much historical context to what she did. She was
Speaker 1: paying homage to black cowboys and black history and even
Speaker 1: biblical history as well. It was so deep and rich
Speaker 1: with just so much. That's why I loved it the
Speaker 1: most of all she's done. And also there was the
Speaker 1: added element of her daughter and just everything. I just
Speaker 1: thought it was sensational and listen the Coachella and super
Speaker 1: Bowl were also sensational. But in my opinion is this
Speaker 1: is the best she's ever done, and she did it
Speaker 1: without including hits. It was just the entire new album.
Speaker 2: I really enjoyed the fact that there weren't a lot
Speaker 2: of bells and whistles. This wasn't a fully produced super Bowl.
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? There was tons of bells
Speaker 1: and whistles.
Speaker 2: There wasn't huge staging.
Speaker 1: There wasn't there was what are you talking about?
Speaker 2: But there wasn't. There really wasn't, you know, a car
Speaker 2: coming out. Most of it was on the field. If
Speaker 2: you compared what it cost to do a super Bowl
Speaker 2: halftime show, it was stripped down and I would say
Speaker 2: it was better than eighty percent of all of the
Speaker 2: super Bowl halftime shows. I thought it was phenomenal. I
Speaker 2: loved when post Malone came out. I loved the creativity
Speaker 2: of the Levi's vehicle truck whatever that was that rolled out.
Speaker 2: And I loved seeing her daughter and that warmth there,
Speaker 2: that connection there. I agree with you. I think it's
Speaker 2: one of the best TV performances that nobody saw coming
Speaker 2: super Bowl halftime show. Everybody's like, Oh, what's going to
Speaker 2: happen to the Super Bowl halftime show. This was a
Speaker 2: terrible game that was a blowout that no one was
Speaker 2: really watching in the first place. You hopefully saw it online,
Speaker 2: but I thought it was great as wells fantastic.
Speaker 1: I watched Beyonce online. Thankfully Netflix uploaded the entire thing
Speaker 1: onto YouTube. Did you watch it live?
Speaker 2: I did, I was watching the game.
Speaker 1: Was there any buffering issue? No.
Speaker 2: Netflix has done a pretty good job thus far with
Speaker 2: their football coverage, so it's the future. I'm really sick
Speaker 2: and tired of trying to figure out where every game is. Like,
Speaker 2: I think the Steelers play this weekend on Amazon. They stink,
Speaker 2: by the way, got to hate this team. I think
Speaker 2: the team to beat this year will be the Lions.
Speaker 2: But we shall see Lions Ravens. That's my prediction for
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: Wait, not the Chiefs.
Speaker 2: No? Why Well? I believe the Ravens are going to
Speaker 2: murder the Steelers this weekend and they're going to get
Speaker 2: that monkey off their back. And I think they're going
Speaker 2: to roll right into the AFC Championship and I believe
Speaker 2: they're gonna be there for the Super Bowl. I don't
Speaker 2: know if they're gonna win. There's too much talent on
Speaker 2: that Lions team. I mean, they just they're so talented.
Speaker 2: Go Detroit. They've never won. This is the best season
Speaker 2: they've ever had thus far. So I hope they get
Speaker 2: in that city could use it.
Speaker 1: I still think the Chiefs are going to pull it through.
Speaker 1: It's the Taylor Swift effect.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. The Chiefs just it's wild. They're
Speaker 2: not that good and yet they you know, they have
Speaker 2: you know, they tied for the best record of the NFL.
Speaker 2: So who knows.
Speaker 1: We'll see from Christmas to New Year's. Jennifer Lopez again.
Speaker 1: After celebrating Christmas in Los Angeles, she went over to Aspen,
Speaker 1: where all the really rich people go, and she spent
Speaker 1: some time with Kevin Costner. Now it wasn't a one
Speaker 1: on one date. It wasn't just the two of them,
Speaker 1: like Mariah Carey and Anderson Park. They also were an Aspen,
Speaker 1: just the two of them going out to dinner. Although
Speaker 1: reports claim that Mariah and Anderson are just friends and
Speaker 1: collaborators and have been working on something together, So take
Speaker 1: that for what it is. It could be spinned, it
Speaker 1: could be the truth. But while Jalo and Kevin Costner
Speaker 1: might just be friends. I think she might be trying
Speaker 1: to woo him. I think she's ready to move on.
Speaker 2: No, Nah, it's not her speed. She's not a bounce
Speaker 2: around date different people kind of person.
Speaker 1: What are you talking about. You said she was in
Speaker 1: the past.
Speaker 2: He is old as fuck. I just don't see it.
Speaker 2: I don't even see it one percent. I believe it's
Speaker 2: two famous people that were in the room at the
Speaker 2: same time, and he's probably fascinated by her and she him,
Speaker 2: and I think it's that's the end of it. But
Speaker 2: the posting of all the pictures bikini pictures.
Speaker 1: Up, Yeah, that was designed to get Kevin Costner's attention,
Speaker 1: I think.
Speaker 2: I don't think so. I think it's designed to fill
Speaker 2: some hole that's inside of her that she constantly seeks
Speaker 2: out and feels the need to fill up with this
Speaker 2: attention she constantly needs online. You're fifty five years old,
Speaker 2: you got a bikinian on an aspect. It's just like
Speaker 2: it's the holidays.
Speaker 3: Put it away, just take a break, That's what I
Speaker 3: would say. You're in the freezing is cold place in
Speaker 3: the fucking world, and you're out there. I got a
Speaker 3: bikini on an ass but New Year, same old fucking
Speaker 3: bikini pictures, Like, come on, it's just played out.
Speaker 1: I love it obviously, Yeah, I don't get it. Speaking
Speaker 1: of New Year's, given everything that these girls went through
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four, I was happy to see this.
Speaker 1: Ditty's daughters were spotted vacationing in Saint Bart's where all
Speaker 1: the really rich people go as well, it's Aspen, or
Speaker 1: it's Saint Bart's or who knows where else, And hopefully
Speaker 1: you know their dad did a good job of hiding
Speaker 1: his money so that they can have access to it.
Speaker 2: Well, clearly they do because they're there, Yeah, where they're
Speaker 2: running up a credit card Belle.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I keep thinking about that one lawyer in Texas,
Speaker 1: Tony Busby, and the one hundred and twenty lawsuits like
Speaker 1: that could bankrupt him possibly, Like I don't know, we'll see. Obviously,
Speaker 1: Ditty's still going to be a big story in twenty
Speaker 1: twenty five. But before we get to the big story
Speaker 1: of the break Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, let's briefly
Speaker 1: talk Golden Globes. First, a quick fashion moment My best
Speaker 1: dressed for me, Zendaya Slade just gorgeous, I mean it
Speaker 1: helps that she's just gorgeous and so petite and just
Speaker 1: looks like a model, and everything, the hair, the makeup,
Speaker 1: the dress, the jewelry, flawless. I loved it. My second
Speaker 1: favorite was Emma Stone, who debuted a bold new look,
Speaker 1: a pixie haircut, very Mia Pharaoh in the sixties reminiscent.
Speaker 1: Did you see her? I did, Yeah, loved her. A
Speaker 1: couple of other interesting things. Timothy Chalomey went with Kylie Jenner.
Speaker 1: Saw that they're definitely together and this is just a
Speaker 1: room re y'all. I don't know if it's true. I
Speaker 1: wish it were true. I would love for this to
Speaker 1: be true. There's a rumor that Kylie Jenner is pregnant.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 2: I would love that they look happy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're definitely not breaking up anytime soon, So congrats
Speaker 1: to them. Also shout out to Nicky Glazer. I thought
Speaker 1: she was was like a home run A plus sensational,
Speaker 1: so impressed, and she worked so hard to nail it.
Speaker 1: I heard that she was doing so many shows and
Speaker 1: testing out her material to make sure that she nailed it.
Speaker 1: I heard that she didn't even have a writer's room
Speaker 1: she had two writers rooms, two different writers rooms, so
Speaker 1: that they could each be bouncing ideas so that she
Speaker 1: could get the best material possible. I thought she was sensational.
Speaker 1: Did you like her?
Speaker 2: I would say she was a bee a bee because
Speaker 2: Ricky Gervais will always be the line.
Speaker 1: I thought she was on his level. Actually, I thought
Speaker 1: she was better because the Ricky ger.
Speaker 2: Let me explain it. Let me done that better than
Speaker 2: Ricky Gervase.
Speaker 1: Let me explain why. I think the Ricky Gervais model
Speaker 1: of really in a slightly mean way mocking the celebrity
Speaker 1: is kind of over and she was able to playfully
Speaker 1: have fun with them without being mean.
Speaker 2: Well, I do understand that, and I get that, and
Speaker 2: I would never want somebody to do somebody else's thing.
Speaker 2: But you asked me, if I have to compare what
Speaker 2: I liked more versus what I saw, I'm gonna say
Speaker 2: Ricky Gervais was the best ever to do it. He
Speaker 2: was absolutely no holds barred. He created a genre of
Speaker 2: roasting these people. It was beyond impressive to me. Knowing
Speaker 2: her comedy, I feel that she was doing something she
Speaker 2: doesn't usually do, and that is holding back where she
Speaker 2: had to work very hard to make nice jokes where
Speaker 2: she would typically just rip someone's head.
Speaker 1: Off, but they were still very funny. I thought she
Speaker 1: was hilarious.
Speaker 2: Hey, I'm still giving her a bee. Okay, I'm not
Speaker 2: saying she sucked. I thought she was just fine. I
Speaker 2: thought that was she even Tina Fey and what's her face.
Speaker 1: Left Amy Poehler.
Speaker 2: I thought she was she was completely acceptable. It's an
Speaker 2: award show. I could hardly care. As a matter of fact,
Speaker 2: I watched the intro where she came out and did
Speaker 2: her stand up, which felt a little long, to be
Speaker 2: honest with you, and I went right to watching the
Speaker 2: Lions Vikings game right after that, So I kind of
Speaker 2: popped in and out for an award every now and again.
Speaker 2: But I was making dinner in the midst of all
Speaker 2: of it. But it was absolutely fine. I think it's
Speaker 2: perfect for the people that are still the twelve people
Speaker 2: that are still watching award shows. I think she was
Speaker 2: absolutely perfect for that. If you're asking my opinion, Ricky
Speaker 2: Gervais is the king, that's all.
Speaker 1: All right. A couple of not going to talk too
Speaker 1: much more golden globes, but just a couple interesting moments.
Speaker 1: I believe This might be the end of Ariana Grande's
Speaker 1: awards season. She did not win the co star of
Speaker 1: Selena Gomez and Emilia Petez Zoe Saldana one and a
Speaker 1: lot of people might make the same argument for Selena
Speaker 1: Gomez that she won't get nominated for an Oscar. But
Speaker 1: unlike Ariana Grande, Selena has already picked up awards this
Speaker 1: awards season. She got an award at can Her performance
Speaker 1: has already been regarded as better, some might say, by
Speaker 1: you know, according to critics and their peers, than Ariana Grande's.
Speaker 1: And like I said, I didn't love Ariana and Wicked,
Speaker 1: so there's that. And I would say perhaps the best
Speaker 1: moment for me, although I have not seen this movie,
Speaker 1: was Demi Moore winning and her acceptance speech and having
Speaker 1: this moment, you know, forty plus years into her career.
Speaker 1: Congratulations to her. I did go see one of the
Speaker 1: buzzed about movies, The Last show Girl, with Pamela Anderson,
Speaker 1: and she got nominated also, and she was good. She
Speaker 1: here's the thing, she gave the best performance that she
Speaker 1: could give and I applaud that, and she was good.
Speaker 1: But I don't think, you know, if a different actress
Speaker 1: would have done it, might have done a better job.
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that Pamela Anderson was bad. And then
Speaker 1: when you stack her up against these other actresses, it's enjoyable.
Speaker 1: I give that last Showgirl movie a solid B minus.
Speaker 2: She was up against real movie stars too. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: mean even Angelina Jolie did not win that category. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so it's pretty wild.
Speaker 1: All right, Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, I would like
Speaker 1: to thank these two people for keeping me very busy
Speaker 1: over the holidays. I don't mind working. I need to work,
Speaker 1: and I'm grateful to work. So extra special things to
Speaker 1: Justin Baldoni for mentioning me in his lawsuit against the
Speaker 1: New York Times.
Speaker 2: That was unbelievable. Now I saw it without Perez. Maybe
Speaker 2: you had posted about it, but I didn't see a
Speaker 2: Perez posting. I saw it on my own, which was great.
Speaker 1: So I was mentioned in the lawsuit in a negative light.
Speaker 2: Which I know you love.
Speaker 1: No, Yeah, the thing is a lot of Maybe perhaps
Speaker 1: most people, normal people might not love it. I fucking
Speaker 1: loved it. I know you do. I loved it. I
Speaker 1: made a video about it. I was smiling. It was
Speaker 1: I found out about it on January the first, I'm like,
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a great year. It was the
Speaker 1: best way to wake up on the new Year. So
Speaker 1: I believe I've said it on the podcast before. I
Speaker 1: know I've said this multiple times. I've said that my
Speaker 1: lawyer and Justin Baldoni's lawyer is the same person. If
Speaker 1: I haven't said it on the podcast, I have said
Speaker 1: it in videos. I've said it repeated.
Speaker 2: I've never said that before. I don't believe here. I
Speaker 2: don't think I've heard this.
Speaker 1: So I've said it multiple times. I just haven't said
Speaker 1: it every single fucking time I made a video, you know,
Speaker 1: because I've been making a lot of content about these two,
Speaker 1: and because my lawyer has not given me any information.
Speaker 1: He hasn't leaked me jack shit, he hasn't influenced me
Speaker 1: in any way. In fact, if you've been following my
Speaker 1: coverage and my thoughts on everything Justin Baldoni and Blake
Speaker 1: Lively and you listen to me on this show, so
Speaker 1: here is what has happened. I don't like to use
Speaker 1: the words team Blake or team Justin for myself. I
Speaker 1: know that a lot of people out there do, and
Speaker 1: you know, sometimes I'll use that terminology when doing Instagram polls.
Speaker 1: But when the news first started to come out during
Speaker 1: the promotion of the movie, I was sympathetic towards Justin
Speaker 1: Baldoni based on what I was hearing, and then I
Speaker 1: was going back and forth, but I was starting to
Speaker 1: get more sympathetic to Blake Lively, especially you know, oh.
Speaker 2: The cast, that's where we had left it on this show.
Speaker 2: If we're putting a pin in it?
Speaker 1: Did we not talk about her complaint?
Speaker 2: Yes, we got to the complaint and then you shifted
Speaker 2: gears and I'm just catching everybody else up. You were complete.
Speaker 2: I believe her, yes exactly. I was like, no, I
Speaker 2: still don't.
Speaker 1: Yes, there we go so fast forward to her complaint,
Speaker 1: and I was fully on board with team Blake. Okay,
Speaker 1: I have the same fucking lawyer as Justin Baldoni. But
Speaker 1: I was like, uh, I believe I've read this thing
Speaker 1: in full. I believe her.
Speaker 2: Perez believes everything that said. He really does. He It's
Speaker 2: just proof right there. You can lie to Perez and
Speaker 2: he'll take your lie and spread it like wildfire. And
Speaker 2: not only will he spread it, he will take it
Speaker 2: at word. He'll take it at face value. Now here
Speaker 2: comes the receipt truck. I'll let you take it from there.
Speaker 1: She It seemed like, Okay, here's my thing. Listen.
Speaker 2: Seemed like listen because you're gullible. No, you're gullible. You
Speaker 2: don't poke holes in anything.
Speaker 1: No, No, I did poke holes.
Speaker 2: You did not. We all listen to this.
Speaker 1: This is what I believe. I even said this in
Speaker 1: the podcast as well.
Speaker 2: I said, well, you did say both things can be true,
Speaker 2: and hold space for that. You did say that, and
Speaker 2: I'll give you credit for that.
Speaker 1: Also, I believe I said on the podcast everything that
Speaker 1: she alleged in her complaint, and then during the break
Speaker 1: it became more than a complaint. She actually filed a
Speaker 1: lawsuit against Justin Baldoni in New York. I said, these
Speaker 1: things that she is alleging, and the receipts that she included,
Speaker 1: which we've then learned were edited and not with full context. Okay,
Speaker 1: we'll get back to that. But I said everything that
Speaker 1: she's included in here, all of the allegations that she's made.
Speaker 1: There were cast and crew that witnessed these things that
Speaker 1: will be testifying in a court room.
Speaker 2: And I immediately poked poles on that and said, look,
Speaker 2: she's the A lister. What did you think was going
Speaker 2: to happen?
Speaker 1: But, like I said, I'm not gonna lie under oath.
Speaker 1: The cast and crew are going to tell the truth
Speaker 1: at a trial.
Speaker 2: Right, Okay, depending on what's asked of them. Did this happen? Yes?
Speaker 2: Now could that be without context construed another way? Yes?
Speaker 2: The bottom line is both of these pukes should be
Speaker 2: thrown in jail for wasting everyone's time. Oh no, I
Speaker 2: love what I'll say to this, both of them, because
Speaker 2: wasting the court's time with this frivolous nonsense is pathetic.
Speaker 2: At this point, that is exactly where we all should
Speaker 2: land on this. She's completely full of shit, She's lost
Speaker 2: all credibility. I don't know what he is. A B
Speaker 2: list director, that god, his movie robbed from him by
Speaker 2: a actor and her husband. Those are the things that
Speaker 2: I think that happen. And I find them both to
Speaker 2: be culpable in both ways at times.
Speaker 1: How do you find him to be culpable?
Speaker 2: I don't know if everything he said and did was appropriate.
Speaker 2: I don't know if there's a handbook. I don't know
Speaker 2: the regulations of how you're supposed to present things to actors,
Speaker 2: or when you're conversing about should this guy be into
Speaker 2: porn or whatever his it's impossible to know or tell.
Speaker 2: But the thing is, at the end of the day,
Speaker 2: you made a bad movie. It's what I said from
Speaker 2: the beginning. Walk away from the third and just move on.
Speaker 2: She has done nothing but doug a giant, fucking crater
Speaker 2: size hole of hate for herself. You go online and
Speaker 2: you any if there's a posting about it, you just
Speaker 2: read the comments. They're all killing her. I would say
Speaker 2: ninety nine percent of the comments are killing her. This
Speaker 2: was a bad move by her.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So if you're justin Baldoni, though, and your reputation
Speaker 1: has been tarnished so severely.
Speaker 2: I think the guy wasn't going to do anything.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's the one that filed the complaint.
Speaker 2: I think he was trying to take my advice. I
Speaker 2: think he was trying to say, Hey, this didn't work enough,
Speaker 2: I need to have a career. Let's just move on.
Speaker 2: And she just fucking itching at it and itching at
Speaker 2: it and trying to prove I was right. I was right.
Speaker 1: It's just like, without.
Speaker 2: Context, you can make anything seem like you want to
Speaker 2: make it, and that's exactly what I think she tried
Speaker 2: to do and failed miserably, And that's the bottom line.
Speaker 2: But she pushed him, and I do get your point,
Speaker 2: like what's he supposed to do? Because at some point
Speaker 2: he's like, all right, you want to do this, here's
Speaker 2: the fucking receipts.
Speaker 1: You're wrong, here's some good tea. These are just my theories.
Speaker 1: I don't know if these are facts. Okay. As I've
Speaker 1: said on the podcast many times, I sadly am too
Speaker 1: familiar with the legal system in the United States. I've
Speaker 1: bitterly paid my lawyer, Brian Friedman, way too much money.
Speaker 1: I am. I know how things work.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: If this were a normal situation with two normal people
Speaker 1: that had a disagreement on a film set, ninety five
Speaker 1: percent of the time it would be settled out of court.
Speaker 1: But I believe that Ryan Reynolds, who is easily worth
Speaker 1: if I had to guess, to make five hundred million
Speaker 1: dollars if not.
Speaker 2: Moment I got a billion that boost mobile thing or whatever,
Speaker 2: that cricket or whatever the fuck he sold, he got
Speaker 2: like a.
Speaker 1: Billion dollars, plus his liquor company and all of his.
Speaker 2: Acting, the football team that he owns.
Speaker 1: I was being safe and conservative. Okay, billions, Okay, fine, okay, great,
Speaker 1: let's say them. He's a billionaire. I believe that he's
Speaker 1: bankrolling his wife's legal bills, which are expensive. And in
Speaker 1: her lawsuit, she didn't just sue him. She sued him
Speaker 1: Justin Baldoni. She sued the crisis pr expert, his publicist.
Speaker 1: She also sued his production company. And you may not
Speaker 1: know this, the co founder of Wayfarer, Justin Baldoni's production
Speaker 1: company is this guy named Steve Sarawitz, who is a billionaire.
Speaker 1: And I believe that Steve Sarawitz is paying all of
Speaker 1: Justin Baldoni's legal bills. So I think this might actually
Speaker 1: go to trial, or multiple.
Speaker 2: Trials, because there's so much money involved.
Speaker 1: Because they have unlimited resources, because there's no incentive to
Speaker 1: settle out of court.
Speaker 2: Right, Well, I get that because look, she's dug in
Speaker 2: and believes, she believes everything she says is it is
Speaker 2: probably her reality. She's a whack job, she's an actor.
Speaker 2: They're all fucking whack jobs. And I believe she's so
Speaker 2: dug in she wants to prove this to everyone. It's
Speaker 2: gonna be hard with the receipts that we've now seen, yes,
Speaker 2: and that supposedly are still out there. Like I said,
Speaker 2: you made a bad fucking movie. Just walk away from
Speaker 2: people would forget about it. I'd already forgotten about this.
Speaker 2: At the end of the day. You just remember the names.
Speaker 2: You don't remember why you like them or dislike them.
Speaker 2: But she should have just moved on. Now she's got
Speaker 2: the stink on her forever.
Speaker 1: Let's go over quickly some of the highlights and allegations
Speaker 1: and rewind for a second. I was mentioned in the
Speaker 1: lawsuit in a negative way. Justin Baldoni during the release
Speaker 1: of the movie, I'll be real quick. I'll be real quick,
Speaker 1: and then we'll get to everything else on the Patreon Okay,
Speaker 1: Justin Baldoni during the release of It ends with Us,
Speaker 1: he was clearly monitoring everything traditional media and social media
Speaker 1: as well, and he saw an article that I posted.
Speaker 1: He texted my article to Melissa Nathan the crisis peace.
Speaker 1: You are expert, and she responded back saying he's a loser,
Speaker 1: he's a troll. Nobody pays attention to him, he doesn't
Speaker 1: make any headlines. And then boom on January first, I'm
Speaker 1: making a lot of headlines. I'm on News Nation talking
Speaker 1: about this, and I've still got it. This is our
Speaker 1: tenth year of the podcast and my twenty first year
Speaker 1: as Perez Hilton, So twenty one years later, I've still
Speaker 1: fucking got it.
Speaker 2: Well, anybody that says that you're not relevant or you're
Speaker 2: a troll that has so many adjectives for you, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna go ahead and jump in and call boshity. Okay.
Speaker 2: I think you still get under a lot of people's skin,
Speaker 2: and I think that's a good thing, and I'd continue
Speaker 2: to lean into it if I was you. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So a few of the things that were really eye
Speaker 1: opening in Justin Baldoni's complain against The New York Times.
Speaker 1: He's suing them for two hundred and fifty million dollars
Speaker 1: because they got all of the information from Blake Lively
Speaker 1: team and they didn't fact check any of her allegations.
Speaker 2: Really, according to him.
Speaker 1: In his lawsuit, you know, they just ran with her
Speaker 1: account of things and even include and this is what's wild, right,
Speaker 1: The New York Times says, we had thousands of pages
Speaker 1: of documents from texts and emails to more information. Well,
Speaker 1: why didn't you dump that all? Or why didn't you
Speaker 1: at least what you included in your article? Why didn't
Speaker 1: you include the unedited versions on the web. I understand
Speaker 1: that in print you have less space, but online you
Speaker 1: could include an entire textics change with additional in critical information.
Speaker 1: For example, there were multiple instances where Justin Baldoni included
Speaker 1: the full receipts, where his publicists and the crisis pr
Speaker 1: expert repeatedly said, we did not plant this, I didn't
Speaker 1: do this. This all happened organically. That was their private communications, okay.
Speaker 1: And he also told people that he worked with. There
Speaker 1: was one conversation with editors, a conversation with the publicist
Speaker 1: and crisis expert. We've got to take the high road.
Speaker 1: I don't want to be nasty to her, et cetera,
Speaker 1: et cetera. You know, and her whole allegation was it
Speaker 1: was retaliation. It was an orchestrated smear campaign against me.
Speaker 1: And it seems after reading his lawsuit and the unedited
Speaker 1: and the more information, that that did not happen. So
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I know a lot of you wanted us
Speaker 1: to talk Megan Markle. We will get to Megan Marco
Speaker 1: on the Patreon. This is the year that you will
Speaker 1: sign up for the Patreon We need you to patreon
Speaker 1: dot com slash Perez Hilton. We will talk Megan Markle.
Speaker 1: We will talk Alabama Barker, we will talk Wendy Williams.
Speaker 1: We will talk Justin and Haley. We will get to Brandelina,
Speaker 1: Lily Allen, and a lot more.
Speaker 4: So.
Speaker 1: Our Patreon show this week will be juicy. I appreciate
Speaker 1: everybody that listens, truly, truly. If you get I know
Speaker 1: that money's tight and I'm being very sincere. If you
Speaker 1: don't join, I truly appreciate you, especially if you've been
Speaker 1: writing with us for so long. Thank you. It's our
Speaker 1: tenth year. We're still doing this. I'm still having fun.
Speaker 1: I still tolerate my co host like a family member.
Speaker 1: He's like a family member to me. So let's take
Speaker 1: some calls.
Speaker 4: One call, Hi, guys, it's Casey from Indiena. You guys
Speaker 4: talk about the Taylor Swifts birthday party, splash rap party,
Speaker 4: whatever it was, and I was surprised you guys didn't
Speaker 4: talk about how people are speculating that Brittany ma Holmes
Speaker 4: on her Instagram it really looks like she or whoever
Speaker 4: her team or whoever photoshop Taylor's hands and people are
Speaker 4: speculating that there's an engagement ring on her finger and
Speaker 4: they like try to cover it up. I was curious
Speaker 4: about your thoughts on that, and also like, obviously, I
Speaker 4: feel like we are heading down the road of a
Speaker 4: Taylor Swift Travis Kelsey engagement. Do you think it's going
Speaker 4: to be? I don't know. I'm just so curious how
Speaker 4: it all plays out. I always felt like with Joe,
Speaker 4: if they were to have been gotten serious that to
Speaker 4: get married. I thought for a long time, maybe they
Speaker 4: secretly got married and then tell anybody. And I think that,
Speaker 4: obviously that would be the opposite.
Speaker 1: Here, as I've said repeatedly, or maybe I didn't because
Speaker 1: I don't remember what the fuck I say. I believe
Speaker 1: we're not going to get a Taylor Swift and Travis
Speaker 1: Kelsey engagement. I believe they've already been engaged, and we're
Speaker 1: going to get a wedding. It's going to be a
Speaker 1: surprise wedding, and they're going to invite all of their
Speaker 1: friends to a birthday party or a Fourth of July party,
Speaker 1: and it'll actually be their wedding. Oh, that's what's going
Speaker 1: to happen. I think, yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I kind of feel that getting married is a big
Speaker 2: deal and you wouldn't want it to be so surprised.
Speaker 2: I think they've put a lot of time into.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they will, and it'll be a surprise to everybody
Speaker 1: except for the wedding planner.
Speaker 2: Who don't want to get the press involved in everything else.
Speaker 2: So I do understand that because that would be quite
Speaker 2: the the pain in the ass. But as with the
Speaker 2: photoshopping of there, if she had a ring on somewhere,
Speaker 2: trust me, there'd be a photo of it. Yeah, there
Speaker 2: really would be. At that party. If she had a
Speaker 2: ring on, there'd be a photo of it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: All right. Eight hundred and seven two one five is
Speaker 2: our number. We get back together on Thursday for another
Speaker 2: Patreon show. Happy New Year to everybody
Speaker 1: Happy New Year, everyone,
