I see celebrities backing up causes, while not really doing the dirty work or getting hands on, a lot. Mark Wahlberg isn’t one of those people and it was so damn refreshing to not only see it but to talk to him about it. This week, I experienced a fusion of two initiatives Mark supports: F45 Training and the Wounded… View Post
As an entertainment reporter, I’m perpetually caught between two totally different worlds. By day, I’m mulling over an occasional Starbucks purchase and/or in my apartment tucked in the valley. Many nights, I’m offered glasses of Veuve Clicquot while brushing shoulders with A-listers at the Four Seasons. I’ll tell you this much: It’s never boring. But with that, I do have… View Post
A year-and-a-half ago, I brought the question: “What happened to masculinity?” to the red carpet. I talked about my concern around modern guys not stepping up to the plate, being overly emotional, and just being less assertive and more passive in general — thus making 99 percent of the straight female population lose their goddamn minds. And while I still… View Post
The violence in this country is so unbearable, that people often say they can’t even watch the news. But why is it that most of these violent crimes are committed by men and not women? There’s no denying men are inherently more violent than women, but it feels like it’s getting worse and something is shifting that’s made men more… View Post
Boring-ass interviews are a dime a dozen, especially these days. While no one actually likes them (and if they do, god help us all), lame interview questions are safe and in-the-box in this overly sensitive and PC world. Stepping outside the box is scary AF. I’ve put my life on the line, here, people. But I’ve had it for a… View Post
Hey, guys. Long time no chat. If any of you have noticed that I completely fell off the grid during the last few weeks/months, it’s because I have. I’ll talk more about my experience sometime soon, but, in short, I was hit with a massive wave of anxiety (what feels like) out of where. In this unexpected bout, I’ve been… View Post
The thong, guys. It’s back. As someone who wears a Target-bought Casio watch (the kind that was cool circa 1993) on the reg, guess you could say I don’t normally rolls with the trends. For whatever reason, though, I’m not mad at the Brazilian Bikini trend that’s taken over SoCal like it’s 1988. I never, ever thought I would rock… View Post
Here I am, at the most extravagant and exclusive Hollywood event of the year: the Vanity Fair Oscar Party. I coincidentally find myself sitting next to Lady Gaga who’s lighting a cigarette like we’re fellow bar patrons. That was just minutes before I nearly tripped on Heidi Klum’s dress after passing Michael B. Jordan eating an In N Out burger…. View Post
I will never not be fascinated by the shit show that was the Fyre Festival. Naturally, I immediately watched the Hulu and Netflix documentaries as soon as they came out, trying to wrap my head around how the hell so many layers of that mess could actually unfold like they did. What’s craziest to me is that it was purely… View Post
I spent New Year’s Eve in 2017 alone in my LA apartment, drinking champagne and streaming New Year’s Rockin’ Eve in pjs. It’s a wild life, I tell you. (Granted, I had to drive two hours the next day to cover a film festival for work, but that’s neither here nor there.) At that point, I was feeling pretty defeated… View Post
