Self-indulgence

JARED LETO AND ANNE HATHAWAY: TOO MUCH TOO SOON?

Jared Leto is looking more normal and handsome than he’s looked for a LONG time, so he must be filming a movie. In fact, he and Anne Hathaway are starring in a limited series for Apple called WeCrashed and it’s a VERY interesting story. It’s the true story of the rise of the wildly successful startup WeWork (the workspace rental company) that was once valued at almost fifty billion dollars, and of course the disastrous and spectacular fall of the doomed enterprise due mostly to the young founder and his co-founder wife. The couple were described as greedy narcissists and party monsters whose crazy self-indulgence was fueled by their rapid business success. Sounds like a pretty juicy story to us…

IS THE MET GALA SPIRALING OUT OF CONTROL?

Are we crazy or is the Met Gala turning into a vulgar display of self-indulgence? Each costume seems to be bigger, longer, more elaborate and MORE EXPENSIVE ! How LONG can a train be? How many exquisite feathers can be hand sewn onto a gown? If you attempt to calculate the cost of most decadent gowns, the result is financially STAGGERING. Besides being difficult to manage up the stairway entrance to the Met, how awkward must these get-ups be while trying to socialize at the party? Ezra Miller had a clever idea – he held an amazing mask of his own face, but even HE had a mile long train. Model Cara Delevingne, above, had fun without screaming for attention – she painted stripes on her legs to match her dress. How did this fun fashion event turn into a “look at me- I spent more money than you did!” contest?

NOBODY WANTS TO SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT MARIAH CAREY – EVEN IF SHE HAS IT COMING!

Surprise! Mariah Carey has traded her usual exaggerated cleavage at the neckline for TOE cleavage in this photo! In fact her toes seem crammed into those pointy toe heels and they’re probably screaming for mercy. This week it was hesitatingly revealed that Mariah was impossible to work with on two movie cameos she did. Both ended up being cut because she was so late and impossibly demanding. The exasperated stars of the movies leaked a little info and hinted at much more but held back. For SOME reason, Mariah seldom gets called out for her self-indulgences, and it’s NOT because she’s so well respected, if you catch our drift…

NEW YORKERS ARE DISGUSTED WITH WILL SMITH’S OSTENTATION

Residents and shopkeepers in the Soho neighborhood of New York are complaining bitterly about “Men in Black III” star Will Smith’s GIGANTIC personal trailers blocking their streets. Production vehicles are always a nuisance on location shoots, but Smith has TWO 53 foot two story trailers with 22 wheels, that house 1,150 sq feet of unbelievably luxurious living space each, just for himself. (One contains a full size gym.) According to the New York Post, Smith is also renting a five bedroom apartment in the neighborhood for $25,000 a month. Shops are completely blocked by the massive trailers and residents are upset by the noise and gas fumes. Neighbors think Smith should think beyond his superstar needs and consider the impact on others. There was a time when Will would have been embarrassed by such self-indulgence.
