As Minka Kelly starts to promote her book, her boyfriend Dan Reynolds’s wife Aja Volkman has filed for divorce. The timing might seem a little too coincidental but Aja Volkman posted on her Instagram about the messiness of life and honestly, this does not seem gossipy to me. It seems real and complicated. This is not the first time Dan and Aja have split and last time, they almost signed the papers before reconciling and having another baby. For his part, Dan has wiped his social media (the smartest thing to do in a situation like this).

 
 

“Who Jackie” is a running punchline in comedy, a viral meme that existed before the Internet. This is a very inside baseball oral history on how it happened in the Roseanne writer’s room. No one does these stories like Vulture. 

 

In the US, the governor of Florida continues to fight Disney World over the company’s disavowal of the “Don’t Say Gay” law and um, has he ever met a Disney adult? They will cut you while wearing a pair of sequined Mickey gloves and a Goofy lanyard where they keep their yearly pass. They are a different breed and you do not want to f-ck with them. Don’t mess with the Mouse or crew. 

I haven’t really paid a lot of attention to the “Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey might be brothers” story but my conclusion, whether they are blood related or not, is that Matthew’s mom is one hot bitch. Celebrities often make biopics about their dads. Give me a biopic about Kay. 

 

A new season of Curb Your Enthusiasm has wrapped and this gives me an excuse to write about Cheryl Hines, who has issued a public statement of support for her husband Robert’s presidential run. Robert is a staunch anti-vaxxer and all-around idiot and while she has kept him off her social media, clearly things are not strained. Do you think Larry gives her a hard time about it? This would actually make a great storyline for the show.

 

Charlie Sheen is back in business with Chuck Lorre, which is a bit of a surprise considering that Charlie’s run on Two and a Half Men ended in lawsuits and insults. It was a weird time for Charlie – remember the whole tiger blood thing? Anyway, nothing will stop anyone in Hollywood from making a buck and the thing about Chuck Lorre is he is a successful TV producer and there is no disputing that. I have no idea what his sets are like but his shows are hits. This one will star Sebastian Maniscalco and is titled “How to Be a Bookie” – sports betting is super hot right now.
