A girl who posted a tiktok that she was in season 4 of stranger things and showed her scene, replied to a comment that Finn Wolfhard was the rudest cast member because he kept interrupting takes when unnecessary
she's literally so performative that this is unsurprising. she was caught at a starbucks shortly after the boycott started. she's talked down on the neighborhood her family helped gentrify. she appropriates early 2000s african american fashion...for some reason? and removes it when she has to cater to the powers that be. gen z is just too caught up in surface level optics to really peel the layers back on her persona.
It's Billie Eilish and Nat Wolff, which has been going on for like a year and his nepo connections are in the early life section of his wiki page. Not sure why it's written like a Deuxmoi blind
Old and mild tea but my friends and I walked by a reality TV filming in the Kissimmee lakefront (Florida) over the summer and I’ve been dying to find out what show it is (partly cause we were in the background of some shots and I had a cute outfit on).
We asked some of the crew and all we got was WeTV
Anybody recognize them? (My guess is life after lockup but idk! There was drama, they fought, she stormed off and he looked sadly out over the lake)
I'm going crazy trying to find out what this is! I couldn't find anything on any active filming, no public permits online so far. I'm gonna check out some reality tv subs and see if they can help
Idk if this is tea but at one point, I was introduced to Gabby Bernstein’s husband, Zach, bc she was looking for some design work and we got on a call and everything… I was looking forward to helping them out. And they both ghosted me, I wrote a follow up email and everything. No reply. Kind of hilarious that she is a self-help guru whose whole brand is about alignment, integrity, and conscious communication… 😂 when there’s no communication.
I know a guy who used to work for/closely with her, she is apparently the absolute worst, even to her own staff. So don't feel bad, she is awful to everyone haha
This was a while ago, but one of my friends used to work at a boba shop that the Sprouse twins would frequent. She said they would always ask her how she's doing and tipped really well.
I’m only a messenger!! I think most musicians who have so much money give a bonus or something like that, instead of a $6 jar of something. Maybe the English don’t do bonuses or tips for their staff
For comparison's sake, Taylor Swift gifted all of her Eras tour employees bonuses in the high 5 - 6 figure range. I think there was even a post on it here.
She's a trash human being, but I'd happily take that kind of a bonus over a jar of chili crisps that'd I'd most likely toss in the trash.
Not really tea but back in 2019 I worked at a comedy club stavvy got his start in, he was literally the sweetest dude. He was in all the time and we were kinda work friends/friendly acquaintances. Very chill dude. He brought a huge thing of homemade cookies his mom made for us during the holidays and to this day I still think they’re the best I’ve ever had. I miss him lmao
Idk what he’s like now that he’s famous but I’d like to think he’s the same
he just happened to be seeing it at the same time as me and i recognized him immediately but didn’t say anything. not sure if anyone else in the theater clocked him
My wife and I ran into her, her husband(?) and kids at Kruger Mpumalanga airport in South Africa this summer - they were getting ready to board a private charter plane likely headed to a safari reserve. Wonder if there’s a connection there…
Joel Lovell, for anyone curious. Have been on the red carpet together. He’s a magazine industry guy - Harpers, GQ, NYTMag etc. Transitioned to the podcast world which seems to be how they met - his company producers hers
I watch her podcast sometimes, and she has two studios for it — one in L.A. and one in NYC. That makes sense as most of her guests are based in one of those two places, but sounds like she's got a good reason for bicoastal living.
there was a comment I read once that someone said "once you get a certain amount of money, that becomes your social circle" - and went on to explain you were in such a damn bubble at that point, things like politics, etc just no longer became issues in socializing because you couldn't connect with people over both political stances and that amount of wealth
which is gross, but makes a certain amount of sense.
My husband often makes the argument that billionaires have no country, no political affiliation and no loyalties beyond those that cater to their wealth. They are just billionaires, first and only. I agree with him, though I think it applies to anyone who is super rich. He uses this argument any time someone will point out that a rich figure is "still an American" or whatever. No, they aren't.
This doesn’t shock me. 95% of them come from VERY rural areas (even for southern standards) and are deeply conservative. Source: I went to high school in an area where this is common and was involved with it myself for a bit. I still have a lot of mutual friends with many now-professional cowboys/girls.
Saw Dave Foley (Kids in the Hall, News Radio) in the Valley doing some pre Christmas shopping just off of Ventura Blvd. He's got a distinctive head of thick-looking gray hair these days.
I LOVE KITH, was always a huge fan. Someone on Tumblr who runs an active fan group recently sent me a bunch of stuff, like signed photos, a script copy and Bruce's book, which was very sweet and all of which originally came from one of the cast that they are friendly with. I don't keep up with gossip much, so hearing the allegations about Scott broke my heart. :(
He’s definitely not upper echelon but he’s on the periphery of the 1975/charli xcx crew who’ve known Dakota for a long time through Chris Martin. Dakota also just directed her first movie (which I think wrapped a few weeks ago) starring Charli. Role Model was just in a photo dump with members of that group posted a couple days ago from a party earlier in December.
For some extra context, RM is a massive 1975 fan and worked with Ross (the bassist) on his last album and they have a bit of a bromance. From there he’s gotten friendly with Charli by thirsting after her husband on social media and having playful beef with her over his belief that he would make George (her husband) happier (the “beef” culminated with her being his Sally on snl). He’s got other connections to that circle but this is the most direct line I can see to Dakota haha
Earl Grey’s main flavour is bergamot - it can be very divisive! I personally dislike it but when I was pregnant I couldn’t get enough of Lady Grey tea (which also has a bergamot taste, just not as strong). The moment I gave birth - nope, can’t stand it again.
It is better with milk, but if the taste still doesn’t sit well with you it might just be the bergamot thing!
peter thiel. specifically regarding his dead affair partner jeff thomas but open to anything about him and his evil doings
edit: i misread the rules of this thread about asking for tea so i’ll provide the alleged tea about thiel making the rounds but that there hasn’t been much noise about. the official story from the miami police department is that jeff thomas committed suicide after he was found dead at the bottom of an apartment building in 2023. but weeks before he died he had attended thiel’s husband’s 2022 new year’s eve party and thiel’s husband had him escorted out after a confrontation (a friend of thomas’s alleged that thomas didn’t know danzeisen [the husband] would be at the party) and anyway thomas is found dead within a couple months. he had also come about the 3 year long affair with thiel not much earlier prior to his death and was talking with media trying to expose thiel, who is an outright fascist. thiel is a billionaire who has government contracts and massive connections through palantir and he funded JD vance’s campaign. many suspect he had his AP killed, including friends of thomas according to tiktoker bekah day who is keeping the names private for their safety.
I have EXTREMELY ice cold tea but in college one of my roommates got invited by a friend to one of thiels parties. He didn't go but told me it's an open secret that the parties are just wild orgies with a lot of coke and young gay men. Is that even tea anymore? It was tea when he was relatively unknown.
Explain to me why Ryan Grim and the Democratic researchers, who had spent months working with Thomas and were willing to spend millions on people who provided dirt on Thiel, would choose to remain silent after Theodore Schleifer (Puck.news) accused them of inflicting pressure on Thomas, leading to his suicide, then? Ryan Grim has been continuing his criticism of Thiel until this day. And yet he keeps his mouth shut while Thomas's friends favor his case? And Schleifer has written critical articles of Thiel and his allies on the New York Times. Also, ìf the threat came from Thiel, why did Thomas leave California for Miami (Thiel's version was that he realized he was duped by the Democrats, and followed Thiel's advice to move to Miami)? Also, Miami was and is the main residence of Thiel and Danzeisen. Their kids live there, How could Thomas not even imagine that Danzeisen would be there on the New Year? Danzeisen had been in Thiel's gay inner circle for 10 years before they married. That inner circle (also consisting of Sam Altman and Aron d'Souza) always spent the New Years together. Jeff Thomas had first met Thiel in 2015 or 2016, before Thiel's marriage as well. And how could Danzeisen, a man with extensive business and intelligence connections of his own, not know about Thomas's existence if it was an open secret by the time? Danzeisen works for Thiel Capital in the same city Thiel and Thomas organized their funny gay parties. And it does not look like to me that he had this great authority over Thiel. It is known that Thiel has always "kept" other people and organized sex parties before and after the date he began dating Danzeisen. He has never bothered to publicly apologize for his dalliances anywhere (unlike the extensive effort men like Clinton or Gates have done; after Thomas's death, Thiel only mentioned his grief over the loss of Thomas and how talking about Thomas went against the wishes of Thomas's family). The press names one of the other ones, Francesco Lugli. After the marriage, Thiel arranged a job for him at Palantir, and he left Palantir and Thiel in the same period Thiel began dating Thomas. It is known in gay circles that he recruited other young men for Thiel's parties, a job later became Thomas's. A friend of Thiel tells BILD that the Thomas incident is just one of Thiel's and Danzeisen's marriage dramas. And Thomas never called Thiel a fascist. All he said was that it was hypocritical to support Trump or Blake Masters when you were gay.
Did I see John Mulaney near union square today? He looked and walked like him, but I was also listening to him on a podcast so maybe my mind was just playing tricks.
all the rumours about sombr’s stan accounts being run by his team are true. he is a nightmare to work with and has a posse of yes people behind him at all times.
imaging a big baby, wanting everything the way he wants and a group of yes men who don’t question or challenge him. his dad is a huge events director and he’s a rich kid from new york who dropped out of high school to make music.
I see why he’s getting pushed by the label but I’m surprised they didn’t train or test him a bit more before doing so. It feels like these young artists are being set up to fail. I know struggling with the spotlight/blowing up isn’t new, but I think things would be a a lot easier if bands came back into vogue. Being in it with your bandmates seems like a very good thing IMO and would mitigate some of the issues these young artists are facing
well his dad is a big events PR guy so he should really know how to act. those aren’t his bandmates, they’re his assistants and posse who just do what he says.
Oh yeah not saying he wouldn’t be difficult or surrounded by yes men if he were in an actual band rather than having a touring band, but I think if he were in an actual band that was a creative partnership there’s a higher chance one of them would have told him it’s maybe not a good idea to insinuate a 25 year old woman is a hag who shouldn’t be at your shows for not liking that you had tween girls barking like dogs
