JONAH HILL: HIS MAKEOVER GAVE HIM AN EGO BOOST

Dane Cook posted this photo on Instagram with CAPTION THIS. It’s a still from 2007’s Superbad featuring accused “emotional abuser” Jonah Hill as a nerdy high school kid desperate for female company. Jonah was a totally different person back then- he was the chubby funny, guy with the curly hair who couldn’t get a girlfriend. For the past few years, Jonah has been giving himself a TOTAL makeover. He moved to the beach, learned to surf and started doing it every day. He lost weight, cultivated a tan, and his hair turned blonde! We’re thinking the thinner and better looking he got, the more powerful he felt. The surfer girl he dumped for his baby-mama posted texts Jonah sent -indicating he attempted to control her behavior. The new improved Jonah figured he could get away with that stuff!

Ego Jerry Lewis Sexual Assault Sexual Harassment

JERRY LEWIS SAID HIS BIGGEST FLAW WAS TEMPTATION

And so it begins…we were not at ALL surprised to learn that women in their 70’s and 80’s are now coming forward to accuse the late Jerry Lewis of sexual and other atrocities. It’s about time. He’s actually being compared to Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby. As a kid, we LOVED Jerry Lewis’s movies, but as a gossip columnist we had heard plenty of not-so-nice stories about this talented but egotistical and entitled monster who was the King of Paramount Pictures in the 60’s and could do no wrong. (Did you know he left NONE of his 50 million dollar fortune to his longtime ex-wife Patti and 6 sons?) The producers of Allen v Farrow interviewed several actresses with awful stories about Lewis and they shared the info with Vanity Fair. Hopefully now that the doors have opened – MORE women will have the courage to tell their stories about the REAL Jerry Lewis.

Ego Kanye West Multi-Billionaire Sneakers

SNEAKERS, NOT MUSIC, MADE KANYE WEST A MULTI-BILLIONAIRE

By far the most appalling news we’ve heard this week is the fact that Kanye West, the most self-congratulatory performer of all time, couldn’t get elected President, but is now the wealthiest black person in US history! (Yes, he is the third richest celebrity in the world – even surpassing Oprah! ) It’s appalling because Kanye’s already out-of-control ego will no doubt soar to new heights. His Yeezy deal with Adidas earned Kanye far more money than his music catalog, and his Gap deal added to that. He also owns a big chunk of Kim’s SKIMS company. Since they had an iron-clad prenup, she will NOT be walking off with half his fortune. Kanye is already fond of comparing himself to Picasso and describing himself as a genius. Actually, he was smart to move to Wyoming, which has low taxes and NO state tax – whatever he is building there will be closely watched by other envious rappers. Whether Kanye does significant things with his money remains to be seen…

Ego Kanye West

KANYE WEST WANTS YOU TO THINK HE VOTED

Kanye West revealed the depth of his incredible egomania when he had himself filmed voting in Wyoming. (Yes, Wyoming – that’s where he lives now) He wrote himself into the ballot – because he failed to get his name on the ballot in the state. But that’s ALL he did. Kanye did not even attempt to vote for ANY of the other candidates or issues on the ballot. Which just goes to show how little he really cares about contributing to Wyoming or his own country. It’s Kanye’s World and HE’S the only thing that matters.

Burt Reynolds Ego

NOT EVERYBODY IS MOURNING BURT REYNOLDS

Interesting to note that there are no exes or females weeping at the death of Burt Reynolds, despite the fact that he considered himself one of the hottest commodities ever to bless Hollywood. For years we covered the macho actor’s antics for Star Magazine and every year he became more unlikable. Literally every woman he either dated or married left the relationship despising him. Burt was the epitome of the egocentric and egotistical 1970’s man – women were good for one thing. Now reporters are cornering his exes for comments about his death and they have nothing nice to say – the best they can come up with is “We’ll miss his sense of humor…”
(It’s also odd that there are no photos of Burt with his adult son Quinton)

Burt Reynolds Ego Elevator Shoes

BURT REYNOLDS AT 82: EGO STILL INTACT

Our earliest memory of Burt Reynolds was the uproar made over his Cosmo centerfold. Back in the 70’s, a hairy naked man smoking a cigar with a smirk on his face while reclining on a fur rug, was apparently appealing. That and five years spent as Top Boxoffice Draw fueled Reynolds’ ego. He even imagined that he resembled a young Marlon Brando. Burt claims that careless, tabloid documented marriages and bad investments led to bankruptcy and a less glamorous life. But Reynolds still has that vanity – he uses a cane, but still wears Tom Cruise style elevator shoes, a carefully styled toupee, and his face is tight and relatively wrinkle free.

Caught in the Act Ego Liar, Liar! Ryan Lochte

RYAN LOCHTE – WHICH IS WORSE: THE LYING, OR THE LAME APOLOGY?

Could we possibly dislike the grill-wearing Ryan Lochte any MORE? Just wait and see. His swim teammates would probably love to lynch him for stealing all their glory when they returned triumphantly to the USA. We bet those guys involved in the “incident” think he’s a creep for leaving town FAST after delivering his tawdry story – HE LEFT THEM HOLDING THE BAG! He’s 32 years old and still peeing in public and drunkenly vandalizing public restrooms? And LYING to his mother? Certainly Brazilians are disgusted with his smug attempt to make himself look brave and their country look dangerous. We are SO grateful for those security cameras that told us the truth! His lawyer obviously prepared that carefully worded shifty “apology” that totally skirted the issue and admitted nothing. Thank you Ralph Lauren for removing his photos from your ads! We’ve seen more than enough of him.

Ego Kanye West Muhammad Ali

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN KANYE WEST AND MUHAMMED ALI

It slowly dawned on us that Kanye West is desperately hoping to be compared to Muhammed Ali. Ali WAS the most recognizable person in the world during his prime years as a renowned athlete and he was thrilled by that fact. Kanye is doing everything he can to become THAT famous himself. Kanye imitates Ali with his egotistical rants about how he is an artistic GENIUS. Ali did declare himself “pretty” and brag about his fighting ability but he did it with a sly sense of humor and fun. His tirades were aimed at improving race relations, so needed at the time. He was usually fun and likeable, but serious when it was appropriate. Kanye is all about HIMSELF – his scowling rants grab attention, but not likeability. Ali was a playful generous guy who lived by his religion. You couldn’t NOT like Muhammed Ali, but Kanye West is NOT easy to like…

Ego Entitlement Kanye West Manners Security

TIME FOR SOMEONE TO CALL OUT KANYE WEST FOR WHAT HE IS

Seems like every day we hear more reasons NOT to like Kanye West. We think Anna Wintour should have ejected him from the Met Ball for wearing torn jeans to the strictly black tie event. In NOT doing so, she reinforced his belief that he is SPECIAL and rules don’t apply to him. We have long heard that he tells his wife Kim what to do and she obeys. Now his former bodyguard has dropped a few nuggets of information about his ex-boss. The guard was fired after speaking directly to Kim. The guard told The Sun that Kanye is incredibly condescending and totally self-absorbed. He doesn’t speak to or acknowledge his security staff. When they watch him at dinner in a restaurant, he NEVER offers them so much as a glass of water. Other celebs often have guards eat at the next table. People around Kanye indulge him and walk around on eggshells, hoping not to set him off. His handlers apologize for him. The security guy cannot imagine why Kim stays married to him. It seems that manners and respect are not a part of Kanye’s life.

Car Culture Ego Scott Disick

SCOTT DISICK IS TRYING TO IMPRESS YOU

Of all the Kardashian klan, Scott Disick seems to be the biggest show-off. He loves to flash impossibly expensive cars wherever the paparazzi are in Beverly Hills. Yesterday he was seen for the second time in a Bugatti Veyron – these cars START at 1.7 million and with all the personal extras usually end up costing more than 2 million. What’s funny is that the car is ON LOAN from a Calabasas luxury car dealer. We wonder how Scott gets along with his brother-in-law Kanye – they both want to be the center of attention at all times.
