An Enraged Joel Kim Booster Goes Off on a 'Pathetic' 'Real Housewives' Star

Many of you may only recognize the name Shannon Beador from the occasional mention of her here in Emma’s Real Housewives coverage. Everyone should know Joel Kim Booster, who wrote and starred in Fire Island, and stars in Maya Rudolph’s Loot. He’s everywhere these days, even hosting a Peacock dating show featuring Real Housewives stars. After the wrap party this week, however, he went off on Beador in now-deleted social media posts: “Just because you’re a pathetic drunk on a reality television show best known for a string of failed relationships and a DUI does not make you a star and does not give you license to treat the people you work with like they are subhuman. Period.” He has since apologized, but he said what he said. (Deadline)

I don’t watch any of the True Mormon Wives or True Housewives of Salt Lake or whatever those shows are called. I leave it to Dustin and Emma, and also, I spent enough years as a partial Mormon in my early tweens; I don’t need to watch a show about it to know how toxic and exhausting it can be. Annnnnnyway, evidently, there’s been some movement on soda since I was a teen and it’s a big thing for the LDS ladies now. These Dirty Sodas sound revoltingly sweet to me, but it’s not my teeth, so, have at ‘em, ladies! - (PS)

Oooh, pretty bridal gowns in gothic cathedrals (OK, none of you correct me on whether or not that cathedral is gothic or Byzantine, Romanesque, Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo, Neoclassical, etc. I don’t care!) (In fact, don’t even tell me that it’s probably not “technically a cathedral.” I don’t care about that either.) (LOOK AT THE PRETTY DRESSES!) - (GFY)

This is a hell of an ad directed toward young men who may be considering voting for Trump. “An eye-popping new strategy targets them at … a vulnerable moment.” - (Slate)

President Obama got on the campaign trail and stumped for Harris/Walz. He has some moments where he really rips on Trump. It’s delightful. - (Celebitchy)

Not skipping a beat, the Harris/Walz campaign had a response ad up and out on Threads in under two hours, and it’s pretty damn good! - (Threads)

Did old Donnie squeak out a fart during that Detroit ramble? Jimmy Kimmel certainly thinks so. - (Latenighter)
