  4. What I've learned - you can talk Pride, and Obergefell, and Pete Buttigieg all you want, Hollywood (let alone the US) is still a long long way from being gay friendly.

    ReplyDelete
  5. What I've learned, some people are still obsessed with their gayness when almost no one gives a damn. It is self loathing issue.

    ReplyDelete
  6. I’ve learned about kneepads and all the other celebrity friendly publications, that basically only report what their publicists want you to believe, not the actual truth.

  7. Well I bought Dr. Mary's Monkey ( or whatever it's called) based off a blind and reader's comments......still haven't read it yet

  8. OH UNKNOWN read, finish and then follow up with LEE AND ME

  9. I've been reading this blog since the early days 2006/2007 and what I've learned is that, I'm glad I'm not a celebrity/famous. I also would never let my child be in the entertainment business.

  11. That Hollywood is extremely f*cked up

    ReplyDelete

  13. @Brayson87 you're so cute!

    ReplyDelete
  14. YACHTING! Now whenever I see a celeb on a boat of any kind, I am immediately suspicious!

    ReplyDelete
  15. Being first is worth killing for.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Yachting / Yacht Girls - I had no idea that this even existed. Mind blown and glad I'm not in that world where it's even a career option.

    By the way what is kneepads?

    ReplyDelete
  17. @do tell:

    It's a grave concern of mine :)

    ReplyDelete
  18. Kneepads = People magazine, because they will do anything to get an exclusive with a celebrity.

    ReplyDelete
  19. @Do Tell - OK I get it now - just too innocent a mind :)

  20. I've learned that mentals and shut-ins believe anything they read online to be fact without any evidence even when posted anonymously.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Just recently I learned Miley tried to rehash the beef between Nicki and Cardi on her latest music release and no one paid attention. Brought a smile to my face.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I've also learned that even the plainest and most unremarkable of so-called celebrities have their fair share of unbalanced stans who will go to the mat for people they will never even meet.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I've learned that, while it's an attractive lot, there's an alarming amount of group think.. and the desire to feel included (within this popularity contest) outweighs having the courage to stand up for what is RIGHT.
    Basically, the (sad) world we live in. Just more attractive.

  24. There is a house in New Orleans...

    ReplyDelete
  25. yesss the house!!! @Jesse

    ReplyDelete
  26. Wait, the house is still there or was it burned down? Or is it like the house on the haunted hill, #nondestroyable?

    ReplyDelete
  27. The house in New Orleans, and I do not care whether it's true. It's a great story.
    And this was the first place I remember reading about Epstein way back in the day.

    ReplyDelete
  28. There is a neighborhood. I lived in it. My son had an apt. which had a perfect view of the particle acceleratore that shouldn't have existed at the time. My daughter did a coup;le of years at the children's hospital that was adjacent. Cancer is big business and the illustrious Dr. Ochsner was very much behind it, so to speak.

  29. +1 @VikingSong...But, I do think ENTY has some connections throughout the industry and definitely does their bidding at the expense of other entertainers that ENTY does not like/ his tipsters do not like for whatever personal reason. Meaning that I think ENTY can be pretty biased on certain people (coughEmiliaClarkecough). But...it is all about shits and giggles....and apparently.... anal sex on here.... :p

  30. That AJ Benza is a HUGE fan and if you read this AJ, I think you're my gossip soul mate...

    ReplyDelete
  31. @Boldblonde, No you're cute! :)

    ReplyDelete
  32. Not just about the yachting but all the ways to spot the carefully hidden ads that someone is up for sale (138 Water, certain stuff on TMZ)... there's something about visual cues at fashion shows but I can't remember if I got that one here or elsewhere. It's all sick and fascinating.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I've learned that famous people are pretty f'd up; pretty much every male attached to the industry is a pedophile and if they're not, they're gay, or they're gay pedophiles; conspiracy theories abound for everything; reality and Youtube "stars" have become the new celebrity; people still care wayyyy too much about who posts first.

    And I've finally learned to accept there's no going back to the format before, when Ent would write fun stories to read or bring up something that's happened in the news for discussion. Just blinds blinds blinds, some are from inside info but others seem to be made up from different articles across the internet. I prefer the inside info ones.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I've learned a lot of stuff fictional and non-fictional!

    1. I am glad I left Hollywood behind. The 18 hour days, 6 days a week were a grind.
    2. I think I figured who Hmmmm is.
    (Not disclosing. So don't ask!)
    PS: I'm good at keeping confidential information confidential. (C'Mon, I do that
    everyday.)
    3. I learned that if you have an endless Viagra hard on, dip your penis in ice water
    to relieve your erection. (Why I remember that, I have no idea!)
    (Maybe it's good to know in case of an emergency!)
    4. I'm NOT the Oldest Reader (as I have claimed); and I am NOT the baldest.
    (Probably, I'm the dumbest -- Since I have to read Tricia13's posts first to even
    get a clue as to who is who!
    5. Best wishes to all!

    =)

  35. Second this..gotta use the brain to parse through the fake and real blinds and even then they might be a little biased due to who enty doesn't like. AND a lot of people on here don't understand how autoimmune diseases work and it drives me insane.

  36. I've learned that Amber Heard likes cock in her ass

    ReplyDelete
  37. I've learned that I'm not the only one 'awake'. Makes me feel better to know I'm not alone...

    ReplyDelete
  38. Conspiracy theorists are alive and well. And there are lots of people with way too much time on their hands.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Have learned so much. YACHTING, Kneepads, MV, Hef's basement vault, old Hollywood dish, Himmmmm tales, that Dan Schneider is probs gonna fry in hell, so much. This site is my candy dish.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Recently the rum story.

    ReplyDelete
  41. How much of a douche Don Henley is, and what the song from the 80s was really about.

    ReplyDelete
  42. That I’m apparently a freak-mutant for never having cheated. And being crazy enough to think that not cheating is normal!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  44. Anonymous9:00 PM

    That I’m not alone in a lot of my daily struggles that I go through and it’s all right to open up and be honest.

    ReplyDelete
  45. That Arab men like to take dumps on yachters chests.

    ReplyDelete
  46. That there is no age limit on yachting...see marla maples etc

  47. I'll never get over reading what really happened to Jo-Beth Williams from Poltergeist, its destroyed any films with kids in it for me

    ReplyDelete
  48. The term "Dubai porta potties"...LOL.

    ReplyDelete
  49. @Sunshine Child - I think you mean what really happened to Heather O'Rourke in Poltergeist? Jo-Beth was an adult/played the mom. Heather was the little girl/child actress.

    ReplyDelete
  50. @Sophia S - I do! Sorry I had quickly googled the Poltergiest to write down the name because all I could remember was CarrieAnn - if thats even correct! Thank you :)
