Each time Netflix announces the cancellation of one of their Marvel series—Daredevil, Luke Cage, etc.—I shrug, say “Hm, interesting,” and return to marathoning Cheers. Today, I receive my comeuppance: Netflix is axing Jessica Jones.
I am that rare person who did not care for A Star Is Born, and yet I refuse to remove “Shallow” from my running playlist. Curious! Less curious, and more, uh, very good, is Kelly Clarkson’s cover of said song, which she performed at her concert in Green Bay, Wisconsin on Friday, per Vulture.
Hell No: Avril Lavigne ft. Nicki Minaj, “Dumb Blonde” - In addition to simply being “Hollaback Girl” rewritten for a 2019 audience (women’s empowerment, where feminism is defined by how many times you can call yourself a babe, a boss and a capitalist shill), “Dumb Blonde” is a dumb rallying cry for...blondes? Send it…
In just nine days, we’ll be basking in yet another Oscars ceremony, this one with no host, fewer awards, and probably an exponential increase in disaster. To help you prepare for the schadenfreude, we’ve enlisted our beloved former Jezebel Managing Editor, Madeleine Davies, to walk you through the plot of every Best…
On this week’s episode of Dr. Pimple Popper, we met Ken and Kim. She’s a popaholic, he has a body full of clogged pores to pop. That’s at least part of why their relationship works. This episode aired on Valentine’s Day. There are no coincidences.
On Wednesday afternoon, the New York Times published a report detailing multiple allegations of 44-year-old singer-songwriter Ryan Adams exhibiting “a pattern of manipulative behavior in which Adams dangled career opportunities while simultaneously pursuing female artists for sex.” Seven women went on the record,…
Near the end of Episode 4 of the current season of The Bachelor, contestant Caelynn Miller-Keyes sat down with 26-year-0ld vocal virgin Colton Underwood, for a one-on-one dinner date. The format was familiar: a tight shot of two straight, conventionally attractive 20-somethings sitting hip-to-hip, occasionally…
Lorena begins with the search for a dick. It’s a severed dick from the body of John Wayne Bobbitt, whose wife Lorena Bobbitt cut it off in the night with a kitchen knife. Interviewed police officers who were on the scene tiptoe around the fact that they were searching for what they call, in stumbling tones, “an…
In just ten days, we’ll be basking in yet another Oscars ceremony, this one with no host, fewer awards, and probably an exponential increase in disaster. To help you prepare for the schadenfreude (revisit last year’s explanations for clarity on this concept), we’ve enlisted our beloved former Jezebel Managing Editor,…
Drag Race alum Aja may be best known for their unbridled opinions, excellent ensembles, and the ability to dip from great heights, but performing in drag for Aja was just a stepping stone towards their larger goal of becoming a rapper.
This show never made more (which is to say less) sense than when a man dressed as a peacock sang the Weeknd’s ode to cocaine, “I Can’t Feel My Face.” Or when La Toya Jackson discussed once owning two snakes, Adam and Eve. Or when guest host J. B. Smoove’s imagery of Paula Abdul getting whiplash onstage had the…
The 2019 Oscars is shaping up to be a truly spectacular train wreck. In addition to the fact that there’s no official host, it was reported that former major category winners would not be presenting to the new winners in favor of “bigger talent,” a move that was quickly fixed after actors like Allison Janney spoke out…
It takes a lot to render me speechless, but the official trailer for Ma, a psychological horror thriller starring Octavia Spencer, managed to fucking do it.
After a particularly lackluster 2018 VMAs, so sleep-inducing that the big opening number was the former Vine-turned-pop star Shawn Mendes, New Yorker critic Doreen St. Felix commented that “the first true post-millennial V.M.A.s, was so bereft of shock, sex, and offense that it seemed barely to register.”
In eight seasons, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has successfully strung together four decades of cultural history into a Lovecraftian Birkin bag. Continuing the metaphor, here’s what’s in the purse so far: Erin Brockovich, O.J. Simson, the Hilton family, Kelsey Grammer, Baywatch, Charlie Sheen, Days of Our Lives,…
The hottest trend in rom-coms is sustaining a life-changing head injury.
The four-woman K-Pop group BLACKPINK has seen a monstrous rise since their debut in 2016, with the video for their song “DDU-DU DDU-DU” becoming the fastest K-Pop music video to reach 500 million views on YouTube. Perhaps one of the most recognizable K-Pop groups worldwide, BLACKPINK made their U.S. TV debut on Monday…
On Monday night, two Jezebel staffers with varying degrees of encyclopedic knowledge about the modern Bachelor universe watched the sixth episode of Colton Underwood’s season of The Bachelor. The wine was poured, and the virgin jokes flowed. This is their story.
Natalie Walker is sick of Hollywood clichés.
There’s no denying it any longer; it’s fully award season now. Sunday night, fans of the entertainment biz had to make a decision: watch the Grammys, in which most star-studded musician types have been pissed off to the point of refusing to attend, or watch the British Academy Film Awards (BAFTAs) held in at the Royal…
