So it looks like leftist, and horrible show host Stephen Colbert has canceled “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” for the week after suffering a health scare. Monday, Colbert, 59, posted on Instagram via his show’s official account, “Sorry to say that I have to cancel our shows this week. I’m sure you’re thinking, ‘Turkey overdose, Steve? Gravy boat capsize?’ Actually, I’m recovering from surgery for a ruptured appendix.”
A ruptured appendix can be a life-threatening condition that requires immediate surgery. Famously, that was the cause of death for master escape artist Harry Houdini at age 52. Colbert did not specify when he became aware of his condition, or when he went to the hospital. The comedian has been hosting “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” on CBS since 2015, succeeding “The Late Show With David Letterman.” His guests for this week were supposed to include Jennifer Garner and Baz Luhrmann on Tuesday, Patrick Stewart on Wednesday, and Barbra Streisand and Kelsey Grammer on Thursday.
“I’m grateful to my doctors for their care and to Evie and the kids for putting up with me,” he continued in his Insta note, referring to his wife, Evelyn “Evie” McGee Colbert, who he has been married to since 1993. The couple have three children: Madeleine, 28, Peter, 26, and John, 21. “Going forward, all emails to my appendix will be handled by my pancreas,” he finished his message with a joke. Fans commented on his Instagram post, “You just take care of yourself! Been there, done that. Be a sissy and get some rest,” and “Oh my goodness! That must’ve hurt! Well, we know it’s gonna leave a scar anyway! Get well and we will see you soon!”

The man was 99 so asking what killed him is sort of pointless right? Well the man is gone and he left a long, long history of TV work on the show "The Price is Right" (Television's longest-running game show) which is as of now still on air with host Drew Carey. Drew simply tweeted this...
The winner of numerous Emmy Awards, Bpb was almost as well known for his advocacy of animal rights as he was for his half a century as a daytime television fixture.
Bob Barker, whose warmth and wit as the host of “The Price Is Right” for nearly four decades beckoned legions of giddy Americans to a stage promising luxury vacations and brand new cars, died on Saturday at his home in the Hollywood Hills section of Los Angeles. He was 99. His death was announced by a spokesman, Roger Neal.
From Pee Wee's BIG Adventure to the TV SHOWS to BIG TOP PEE WEE The actor who played the lovable character over the decades in film, tv, and on the many other stages is now on "The Final Ride" as Paul Rubens has left the planet and passed away July 30th 2023 after a long 6 year fight with Cancer.
Who was Paul Ruben? Well he was an American actor, comedian, writer, producer, and children's entertainer. Best was known for his as the "Pee-wee Herman" character which is iconic, and became a pop culture phenomenon for a number of years. Paul Reubens was born 08/27/1952 in Peekskill, NY he would joined the Los Angeles troupe The Groundlings in the 1970s, and started his career as an improvisational comedian and stage actor. Pee Wee or Rubens played that role so much he was typecast in the part but it's of his own creation and I do think he loved the part. A Brilliant actor however he was also known for the drug drama movie with Johnny Depp named BLOW!
Rubens and Depp remained friends for years after the movie and at one point Rubens asked Johnny Depp to play Pee-Wee Herman in two movies. That ended up never happening of course and history never got that crazy even though given the friendship between Depp, and Tim Burton I could have seen Depp giving it a lot of thought.
After all the first movie that really made Pee Wee a big movie character was directed by Burton "Pee Wees BIG Adventure" so who knows. But it never got made so we will never know. But what we do know is that Rubens was a great actor who was very underrated. Here are some of the remarks by people who loved him from Twitter.
It cannot be overstated how huge a pop culture phenomenon Pee-wee Herman was in the 80s, PEE-WEE’S BIG ADVENTURE will forever be one of my formative comedy films, Paul Reubens we thank you for creating a truly iconic character, RIP legend pic.twitter.com/pyhhQ77P85

“Pee-Wee is one of the greatest inventions in the history of comedy. I just wanted to say that while we have you.”

No tweet can capture the magic, generosity, artistry, and devout silliness of Paul Reubens. Everyone I know received countless nonsensical memes from Paul on their birthday, and I mean EVERYONE. His surreal comedy and unrelenting kindness were a gift to us all. Damn, this hurts.
Now it wasn't always fun and jokes... Rubens had dark times especially in 1991 following an incident at an adult theater where he was arrested for masturbating in an adult theater. Which in itself is a joke. What do people go to these places for if not to jerk off I guess? I've never been but I'm assuming this is the reason.
But he was humiliated, lost his show, and was reduced to no work for years until the stigma of the event faded from manys minds. He slowly was able to make a comeback and for a while was doing well but then hard times hit again in this time was due to alligations of CHILD PORN being found on his computer.
On Nov. 16, 2001, police searched Reubens' Hollywood Hills home and seized personal computers and boxes of material a Reubens spokesperson described at the time as "vintage erotica."
Acting on evidence taken from Reubens' house, police then searched the home of Jones, the actor best known for playing the principal in Ferris Bueller's Day Off, and carted off what police told CNN were "numerous items of evidence." Police told CNN that the probe had continued for months, until the arrests finally took place.
Jones, 56, was charged with enticing the same boy to pose for sexually explicit photos (a felony) and possessing child pornography (a misdemeanor), the district attorney's office told the Associated Press. Earlier reports had said Jones shot a video of the boy engaged in sex, but district attorney's office spokeswoman Sandi Gibbons told AP, "The charges do not involve any sex act being performed or any video or film being taken."
There's no allegations of any touching or any improper acts with a minor." Reubens' attorney, Blair Berk, issued a statement, saying, "Mr. Reubens has never at any time knowingly possessed any artwork from his extensive vintage and antique art collection even remotely related to anything improper."
He was arraigned on charges and released a statement on it. He was fined $100.00 also got 3 years probation and agreed to register as a sex offender. He said "I am glad the prosecutors finally dismissed the child pornography charge without me or the taxpayers having to pay for a costly circus-like trial,” - Reubens said in a statement" Things could have been worse as Reubens faced a possible fine of $2,500 and a year behind bars.
Jeffery Jones ended up pleading no contest to a charge of soliciting a minor. The accuser was 14 when the offense first occurred. At the same time, the misdemeanor charge of possession of child pornography was dropped. His attorney emphasized that there was no allegation of improper physical contact. He was sentenced to five years probation and ordered to register as a sex offender.
Jones paid a Fontana boy twice to pose nude for photographs he took at his Hollywood Hills home, according to court records. During the sessions that began in 2000, Jones persuaded the boy, identified in court records as Steven C., to pose naked with a cowboy hat, a stuffed animal, and as an Indian. (WOW Dude probably grew up playing Cowboys & Indians with his friends and it became a fetish! LOL)
With the parents of the victim watching, Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge David Horwitz on Tuesday also ordered the 56-year-old actor to undergo a year of counseling, two years of drug and alcohol counseling and barred him from possessing pornography. He would later have to serve three years of probation after pleading guilty to failing to update his sex offender registry info.
DOH! For a guy who always played a smart guy he sure was one big dummy! Besides being a sick pedophile. As for Paul Rubens... Look a lot of us who grew up in the 80's, and 90's loved Pee Wee Herman as kids but remember this man did this before Blues Clues, and before a lot of other kids shows.
He wasn't the first but he was the one who had the biggest name in childrens programing. He blew it all away one dark night in that theater, and had his demons over the years which would hurt his reputation, and I'm sure there was even more skeletons in his closet as most of Hollywood is full of weird, twisted and some of the sickest people.
But from people who I do like and admire as Conan Obrien and some who loved him, and knew him who knows what the truth about what was what with him. What I do know is that he's gone now and he will be missed by millions. So with that I close this by saying thanks for the laughs and memories Paul. Hope you're having a grand ol time in Pee Wee's afterlife adveture.
Hey this is horrible to have to post but Bob Odenkirk the star of “Better Call Saul” was rushed to the hospital on Tuesday after collapsing on the set of the AMC show! This just got reported by Variety that has confirmed Odenkirk is currently in production on the sixth and last season of the hit show “Better Call Saul,” that in case you don’t know is a spin-off of the wildly popular series “Breaking Bad.” Odenkirk collapsed on Tuesday at the show’s set in New Mexico and crew members immediately called an ambulance.
Odenkirk is still receiving medical care, though the cause of the collapse has not been disclosed. Odenkirk, a comedy writer turned actor, and a great one at that is now 58, and on the show he plays con-man lawyer Saul Goodman in “Better Call Saul” and “Breaking Bad.” “Better Call Saul” a prequel to “Breaking Bad” we see the character’s transformation from the criminally-inclined Jimmy McGill to powerful criminal defense lawyer Saul.
Odenkirk’s work on “Better Call Saul” has gained him four Golden Globe nominations for best actor in a television series drama, and four Emmy nominations for outstanding lead actor in a drama series. He’s quoted after acting as a Jon Wick type bad ass in the movie “NOBODY” which is awesome by the way that “I was at the wonderful 87eleven gym, surrounded by the top stunt actors in the world training, including people like Keanu Reeves and Jason Statham and Halle Berry,” Odenkirk said. “I’m a comedy writer, who is gradually suffering making my way into this discipline. I was just feeling embarrassed at how bad I was when these pros are 25 feet away.”
Representatives for AMC, Sony Pictures Television and High Bridge Productions did not immediately respond to Variety‘s request for comment. The 13-episode final season of “Better Call Saul” is expected to premiere in early 2022.
The king of talk tv the man himself Larry King has passed away folks, and as a 63-year broadcasting career that lasted not just 6 decades but which included 25 years as an interviewer on CNN’s Larry King Live. King was recently undergoing treatment for COVID-19 symptoms at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, where he passed away.
His cause of death has not been confirmed… But as you can picture they will probably say he died of the KungFlu. This would be possibly the biggest name to die from it if they do indeed say he passed from the virus.
While for sure the orange menace known the left as Donald Trump has broken many a celebrity over the past 2 decades. Frankly, a been a highlight of his first term. But I’m not sure he has crushed the hopes and dreams of anyone more than Alyssa Milano. As someone who first discovered girls thanks to Tony Danza taking a job as a maid, you almost hate to see it (see ALYSSA MILANO IS UPSET CONSERVATIVES ARE ‘WEAPONIZING’ CANCEL CULTURE BECAUSE ONLY SHE IS ALLOWED TO DO THAT and ALYSSA MILANO GOES ON ‘SEX STRIKE’ TO PROTEST ANTI-ABORTION LAWS). The — I guess she’s still technically an “actress” — was feeling particularly “woe is me” and had a complete meltdown vented over what’s been ailing her to her adoring fans.
And don’t even get me started with how fucked our priorities are in this country. We’ve got secret armed police in full-on tactical gear but we don’t have enough PPE for our frontline healthcare workers?! I mean what in the actual fuck is wrong with us?
Well, maybe that’s because Joe Rogan provides value and attracts guests from all walks of life, whom he engages with in conversations people want to hear. Meanwhile, Milano hasn’t provided value since Poison Ivy 2. Maybe it’s a political thing and she hates him because he lets people express different opinions. Or maybe it’s jealousy that Rogan is getting highAF and swimming in a vault full of Spotify money like he’s Scrooge McDuck while her Charmed residuals have dried up. Either way, envy isn’t a good look.
Neither is famous people from any walk of life complaining about how rough their lives are. Maybe she still has a few stans who are sympathizing with her. But the rest of us have real problems and don’t need to hear it.
The house is about to get a lot less Full as Hallmark Channel star Lori Loughlin may finally be facing 50 years in prison as it’s being now reported on by “Deadline News” that a trial date has been set for the actress (and husband Mossimo Giannulli) for her alleged participation in last year’s college bribery scandal.
Loughlin will stand trial starting on October 5, where she’ll be asked to answer for charges of doing a bunch of stuff for her idiot kids. Loughlin and Giannulli are accused of paying $500,000 to get their daughters into USC as crew recruits even though neither was a rower. Authorities say the money was funneled through a sham charity operated by college admissions consultant Rick Singer, who has pleaded guilty to orchestrating the scheme.
Specifically, Loughlin stands accused of making contributions to the University Of Southern California with the express intent of getting her daughter admitted, ostensibly as a member of the school’s crew team—despite the fact that she’s reportedly never even touched a crewing ball. Rather than taking the route favored by fellow accusee Felicity Huffman—i.e., pleading guilty, getting her 14 days of Nice Jail out of the way, and then going home to be Felicity Huffman some more—Houghlin and Giannulli have pleaded not-guilty, arguing that they had no idea that the $500,000 they gave to scheme organizer William Rick Singer was intended to be used as a bribe.
The pair are pushing this “Not evil, just profoundly stupid” narrative even further by accusing federal prosecutors of withholding evidence that purportedly shows that no, they really were that astoundingly stupid.
This renewed pushback comes shortly after Hot Pocket heiress (and now they have the hot pocket hot pocket… Taste more like a hot pocket then most hot pockets.) In what they’re calling and I kid you not! “Operation Varsity Blues,” Michelle Janavs was handed a 5-month prison sentence on similar charges. Loughlin and Giannulli face a maximum of 50 years in prison if convicted, presumably because the legal justice system really hates the show full house! LOL They probably think that with Fuller House now gone, and the focus on Aunt Becky and those annoying twins not a factor anymore them going to prison will make sure no more annoying spin offs happen with Aunt Becky, and Uncle Jesse!
A judge promised that the trial will likely be over by Thanksgiving… Or as long as it takes to make sure the shows write her off! Ok so maybe that part isn’t true but hey sure makes you think if she was in prison how full will her cell be? Can they spin that off? “Full Cell” Perhaps?
Attorneys for actress Lori Loughlin and fashion designer husband Mossimo Giannulli said newly released evidence exonerates their clients. Now we all need to just wait, and see what happens next. While I take shots, and make fun 50 years for what she did seems well a bit much. The most she should get is maybe a year tops, and reduced time from that to maybe 6 months behind bars, and 2 years probation, and maybe some community hours or something but 50 years. I mean god it’s like she was the head of the mafia.
The new information provided to the defense includes notes written by Singer detailing his discussions with FBI investigators about recorded phone calls he had with parents, Berkowitz wrote. Singer said in his notes that the FBI told him to lie by saying that he told the parents who participated in the scheme that their payments were bribes, instead of legitimate donations to the schools, the attorney said.
“They continue to ask me to tell a fib and not restate what I told my clients as to where there money was going to the program not the coach and that it was a donation and they want it to be a payment,” Singer wrote, according to the filing.
Berkowitz called the information not only “exculpatory, but exonerating for the defendants the government has charged with bribery.”
The couple is among 15 prominent parents still fighting accusations that they rigged the college admissions system by paying people to pretend their kids were star athletes for sports they didn’t play or cheat on their children’s entrance exams.
All jokes aside she’s not a risk to society, and she’s not gonna become someone worthy of keeping behind bars. Does nobody any good anyway.
Isn’t that the truth! But it’s hilarious to see how much they hate him now, and why? He’s not changed, and neither has what he said in 2011 to what he’s saying now. This video shows the clear hypocrisy in the View which should be renamed to the “SPEW” cause all they do is spew garbage.
