Let’s pay attention to Kate Hudson’s feet here because she’s wearing socks with sandals, which used to be a “dad” faux pas but I’ve noticed is now kind of hip? It’s confusing but I like it.
I don’t know if this is entirely accurate as the numbers are constantly in flux, but Alec Baldwin and Nick Cannon each have seven children, I think? (Please don’t hold me to this math.) That’s a lot of homemade cards.
If the “I’m not the stepdad I’m the Dad who stepped up” t-shirt that Twitter loves were a celebrity, it would be a tie between Blake Shelton and Russell Wilson (who is a stepdad to Ciara’s son Future). Both Ciara and Gwen have spoken extensively about how much these men have loved and embraced their children and both of them are in pretty traditionally masculine fields (country music and football). Showing their kids love publicly is something that brings out a lot of feelings in people and like all gossip (or entertainment), the reaction says more about society than it does about the celebrity.
Jessica Simpson posting a selfie for Father’s Day… that’s camp.
Sofia Vergara is still filming Griselda, a biopic about cocaine godmother Griselda Blanco. Her life story is fascinating and it’s been tackled before (badly, by Catherine Zeta-Jones) and there was a production in the works with JLo (not sure if landed anywhere), along with other production announcements that never seem to pan out. This woman was Scarface, she was a gangster, she was ruthless, she was complicated – all the markers of an epic story. If the right team is in place….will this finally be it?
Hailey Bieber hosted a party for Rhode skincare and makeup artist and influencer Iris Beilin came away with nothing. Because Hailey was giving nothing. Hailey has definitely spoken about having anxiety in the past and that could have something to do with it, but at a work event for a brand, there has to be someone who is the face who can sell it. If that’s not Hailey’s lane or within her capabilities, the brand should not be hosting parties or they need someone else who can speak on the products for her. On the flip side, I once attended a media event with a very famous stylist who literally hid in the corner and said she needed space from her own party. She was probably overwhelmed and exhausted, but she was at work, as were the rest of the people there. So when one person can’t do their job it has a domino effect.
