Aaron Sorkin says he should be dead

Back in November of 2022, acclaimed writer and director Aaron Sorkin suffered a devastating stroke due to high blood pressure.

Speaking with the New York Times recently Sorkin recalled what his doctor said to him when he woke up in the hospital. "You're supposed to be dead."

Aaron said he never worried about the effects his lifestyle was having on him. "I thought I was one of those people who could eat whatever he wanted, smoke as much as he wanted, and it's not going to affect me. Boy, was I wrong."

Sorkin added later, “There was a minute when I was concerned that I was never going to be able to write again, and I was concerned in the short-term that I wasn’t going to be able to continue writing ‘Camelot.’”

Aaron says his choice to go public with the stroke was to help others. “if it’ll get one person to stop smoking, then it’ll be helpful.” Sorkin said for a long period of time he was smoking two packs of cigarettes a day.

Ashlee Simpson does clothing collab with daughter

Ashlee seen here with husband Evan Ross

Ashlee Simpson, the less famous sister of Jessica Simpson, has always had a flare for style and now she gets to exercise those talents with daughter, Jagger.

This is all thanks to a collab she did with Smash + Tess clothing brand.

The idea was that she loves to coordinate clothes with her daughter, but wanted options outside of the usual Lilly Pulitzer waspy lines.

The mother-of-three - who also worked for Marc Jacobs recently - posed with her mini-me daughter Jagger Snow, aged seven, whom she shares with her actor husband Evan Ross. She also has sons Ziggy Blu, two, also with Evan as well as Bronx, 14, whose dad is Pete Wentz.

'What I love about Smash + Tess is that it's founded by women, for women,' Ashlee said when talking to Daily Mail.

'They recognize the many hats that women wear everyday and strive to simplify their lives by providing ease and comfort to their wardrobe.'

Harry and Emily mackin on each other in Tokyo

Celebs love to get it on in parking garages. They just can't wait to get inside to paw and lick one another.

Such was the case this weekend in Tokyo with Harry Styles and Emily Ratajkowski.

Harry is in Japan for his "Love on Tour" concert and Emily seems to have just come along to keep him company. Harry just recently ended his relationship with Olivia Wilde and Emily is in the process of getting a divorce.

The two huddle dancing together in a garage out of the rain when they just couldn't resist each other and began a full on investigation on one anothers insides. lol.

Brie Larson Confirms Breakup

Brie Larson has seemingly confirmed she's once again a bachelorette.

The Marvel actress was dating the director Elijah Allan-Blitz since the summer of 2019, but indicated in an interview this week she was alone.

While speaking with Harper's Bazaar for the publication's April issue Brie said "I don't have a next job. I don't have a home. I don't have a partner. I don't have a plan. I'm just completely open."

That's pretty hard to missunderstand.

The two worked together in 2020 on 'The Messy Truth VR Experience' which earned an Emmy win in the outstanding original interactive program category.

Brie's pretty private about her personal life, so we suspect that will be the last we hear about the break up.

The L Word: Gen Q, canceled after season 3

Showtime made this announcement last night. The reboot of the super popular 'The L Word', has been canceled on the cable channel. But there still may be a new future for L Word.

Deadline has reported that Showtime is currently developing The L Word: New York (working title), a full reboot of the series, with a whole new continuity (and with series co-creator Ilene Chaiken reportedly still somehow involved). 

Sex in the City style? Who knows.

Deadline also noted that Generation Q is just the latest Showtime show not to get renewed since Viacom announced it was folding the network into its Paramount+ branding.

Lots of streamers have been accused of canceling shows without giving them a chance. Something streamers were once known for being patient with and why actors flocked to the services to work.

We'll be interested to see what comes of this big news.

Afroman’s lawsuit against police is poetic

Here's the deal. Singer Afroman wasn't home in late August, 2022, when Cincinnati law enforcement conducted a raid on his home. But there were cameras there. They were everywhere. And they caught every step of the raid.

Fast forward a few months and Afroman releases two videos called "Lemon Pound Cake" and "Will You Help Me Repair My Door." In these music videos you can see the footage of the police going through everything he owns while Afroman sings "Is there a 1,000lbs of weed in my suit pockets".

In the footage it's clear cops are taking advantage of their time in the home and Afroman alleges police stole from him as well. And the raid never led to any arrests.

Police are now suing Afroman for using their likeness in a video. Afroman is countering.

Anna Castellini, an attorney for Afroman (real name Joseph Foreman) said in a statement shared on his Instagram that they "are planning to counter-sue for the unlawful raid, money being stolen, and for the undeniable damage this had on my client's family, career and property."

I am here for all of this. Get em.

Gene Simmons of KISS is selling his Vegas manse

Gene Simmons is officially retired from concerts and touring, but he's still looking for that place he'll settle down in. According to Dirt.com, Gene said
he loved the house, and all the tax benefits Nevada offers but his family did not care for the excessive desert heat (or the “strippers down the street”) and that’s why he decided to sell.

His house is almost obnoxiously modern., About what one would expect out of Vegas. A massive 10,000+ square feet and bar featuring a giant salt water fish tank.

Tekashi 6ix9ine’s attack caught on video

The moment the two men entered the LA Fitness where they came to find Tekashi, the entire thing was caught on tape.

Yesterday we learned that two men entered the sauna where 69 was schvitzing and dragged him out and kicked his ass, but good.

The entire beat down is hard to watch but the men were heard yelling that they were going to be the famous ones now.

And I also hear that his body guard is now challenging the men to a 10k fight.

Tekashi, of course, went turn coat on LA gang members and made lots of enemies so these men could be anyone.

Dick Van Dyke recovering from car crash

Dick Van Dyke is 97 years old. So you can imagine where my thoughts went when I saw his name on the AP wire.

The Mary Poppins actor was involved in a single-vehicle crash in Malibu on March 15, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said.

Dyke apparently lost control of his 2018 Lexus LS 500 and crashed into a gate.

He reportedly suffered minor injuries including “bleeding from the nose and mouth” and possibly a concussion.

The crash is currently under investigation by traffic investigators within the Sheriff’s Department, which is standard protocol. Drugs and alcohol were not a factor.

Bad Bunny’s ex-girlfriend files lawsuit for $40M

Bad Bunny is one of the biggest performers out right now and on top of it he's linked to dating Kendal Jenner. So what could go wrong?

Carliz De La Cruz Hernández who dated Bad Bunny and provides the breathy “Bad Bunny, baby” used in two of BB's songs, says the voice over is being used without her permission. She's seeking $40m.

Carliz claimed in a lawsuit filed this month in a Puerto Rico court that she did not give permission to use the voice. Nor was she compensated.

The lawsuit states that De La Cruz’s “distinguishable voice” also has been used without her consent for songs, records, promotions, worldwide concerts, television, radio and social and musical platforms.

“Since then, thousands of people have commented directly on Carliz’s social media networks, as well as every time she goes to a public place, about the ‘Bad Bunny, baby.’ This has caused, and currently causes, that De La Cruz feels worried, anguished, intimidated, overwhelmed and anxious,” the lawsuit states.

Also sued is Noah Kamil Assad Byrne, manager for Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Martínez Ocasio.

This could be a big pay day for her if this is all accurate.
