How many times does a police source ever get to tell the media that “We interrupted a gang bang”? This story seems straight out of Borat – but it’s real life: a homophobic politician got busted at a sex party with 25 other men. The escape attempt is right out of a movie. There’s a beautiful paragraph here that made me almost pass out. It’s the one involving lower body strength. Anyway, to add insult to injury, obviously this sex party that the man was attending was in violation of COVID rules. (Dlisted)
Jodie Comer covers the new issue of InStyle, inspiring Jessica at Fug to come up with a great suggestion while we continue to exist on Zoom. Right now, you can do whatever below the chest but the party happens above the shoulders because that’s all that people see. And so, at least for some people, myself included, there’s a lot more focus on face and hair. Why not start wearing fascinators for Zoom appearances LOLOLOLOLOL. (Go Fug Yourself)
Sarah and I disagree on one thing about The Crown: Gillian Anderson as Margaret Thatcher. I really enjoyed the performance, Sarah thinks it’s too much. But Thatcher really was… too much, in some hideous ways. I loved how Gillian goes for it in every f-cking scene. And it KILLS me that she was always cooking for her ministers. Like that was a thing she insisted upon. If Uber Eats was around in her time do you think she would order from there? Anyway, Gillian is soft-campaigning right now, I think, for Globes and SAGs for her performance and is talking about how she became the Iron Lady. (Cele|bitchy)
My favourite part of John Waters’ list of Top 10 films of the year is that Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of the Chicago 7 came in 10th place and a movie called Butt Boy is in first. (OMG Blog)
I think you’re going to want to do this quiz if you haven’t already: answer the questions and it’ll tell you which member of the royal family you are. I’m Princess Anne, which I’m very happy about, although I’m afraid of horse-riding. I think horses are amazing but I don’t know that I could be an accomplished rider, which confuses me. That said, I am prickly, and she is famously prickly. (Buzzfeed)
