Author: Taylor Ferber Four years ago, countless A-listers donned black dresses and Time’s Up pins at the Golden Globes, gloating with pride like no pageant girl you’ve ever seen. 6.9 million people… View Post
Loved being on NPR’s Weekend Edition to share my experience with Chrissy Teigen and weigh in on cancel culture and celebs moving forward. Here’s a little snippet. What do you think? I’ll tell you this: When my USA Today op-ed on this was published (reflecting what I say here aka cancel culture is trash), people across the country from ALL… View Post
Political divide. PC culture. Boring pop culture shows. Sick of all the above? Welcome to my podcast/digital series Cancel Me, Baby! If we’re just meeting, here’s what the show’s all about: “A red carpet reporter turned pop culture provocateur takes years of interviewing celebrities and being at Hollywood’s biggest events to challenge norms and say what we’re all really thinking,… View Post
Hi, everyone! Officially CLEARING the poor little cobwebs on my site — but you’ve been following my podcast/IGTV series, right? Right? 😉 — to share with you my appearance on Fox News. In early September, Fox gave me a call to weigh in on the controversy surrounding the new Oscars diversity/inclusion requirements for Best Picture. About that… Though the clips… View Post

So what is it actually like having sex after giving birth? For women like me who want to be moms one day, we must know. I talked to Tone It Up‘s co-founder and fitness guru Katrina Scott about it when Tone It Up celebrated their collab and meal prep series with Shipt at a very fabulous Beverly Hills launch last… View Post

This scary shift in culture is especially impacting comedy, which was always a safe haven for going there and being provocative. I got Sabrina the Teenage Witch and comedian… View Post
Last month, comedian Shane Gillis was fired from Saturday Night Live before he even started due to unearthed footage of him saying a racial slur. Is this fair? Has “cancel culture” gotten out of hand, especially in the comedy area, which was always a safe space for pushing boundaries and free speech?
