This week, Megan Thee Stallion covered Women's Health magazine and, as is the case for any sit-down with the rapper, the accompanying story was rife with notable quotables. Stallion spilled about the importance of implementing a fitness routine into her lifestyle ("If I want to be a stallion and not a pony, I got to get up and put in the work."); maintaining strength and softness ("I am very much a flower, but my flower has thorns."); and what inspired her forthcoming album ("I was inspired to...
Celebrity news is a bit slow this morning (where is everyone??? We need you back on the balcony of Sushi Park!!), meaning it’s the perfect time to rewind and contemplate a little vintage celeb drama. This week Mandy Moore was a guest on Valerie Lipovetsky’s Not Alone podcast, talking about motherhood, social media, and her career—you know, the stuff podcasts are about these days. Towards the end of the episode, Valerie brought up what Mandy is most famous for. No, not her pop music career, not...

Photo: YouTube/Truth Social/YouTube The GOP is increasingly discussing the prospect of Donald Trump enforcing a 19th-century law to ban abortion nationwide if he wins a second term, and some Republicans seem desperate to swat away those concerns by telling us not to believe our lying eyes. Throughout the last few months, activists and lawmakers have avoided citing the Comstock Act by name (instead using its statute number), have...
Every year, over half a million people gather in Sturgis, South Dakota for a ten-day motorcycle rally—the largest in the United States. There, among the masses of confederate flag-wielding white men, is an Indigenous motorcycle group of women and femmes called the Medicine Wheel Riders, who've been traveling the 1,200 miles from Phoenix, Arizona to Sturgis every year since 2018. Their purpose? To bring national awareness to the countless missing and murdered Indigenous women who disappear or are...
In November 2022, Tish and Billy Ray Cyrus announced their divorce, and the family has been ensconced in drama pretty much ever since. This week, Noah Cyrus—Miley’s younger sister—is continuing to stir the damn pot. Over the weekend, social media users noticed Noah “liked” an Instagram post from Miley’s ex, Liam Hemsworth, in which Hemsworth takes a revealing gym selfie, not-so-creatively captioned “#Legday.” There’s simply no way Noah thought no one would notice, so I’m willing to theorize...
Protesters outside the U.S. Supreme Court on March 26. Photo: Shutterstock On Monday, the Florida state Supreme Court issued a wildly bittersweet ruling, allowing the state’s six-week abortion ban to take effect—effectively decimating abortion access across the South—but also allowing Floridians to vote on a ballot measure to enshrine a right to abortion this November. And as you’ll recall, a handful of other states have been trying to get their own abortion rights measures on the ballot this...

Photo: Shutterstock Jezebel is the country's pre-eminent hater of the Comstock Act, a 19th-century anti-obscenity law that a second Trump administration could weaponize to ban all abortions nationwide. And now a huge newspaper and a U.S. Senator have joined us—and one bold House member—in saying that Comstock needs to be repealed. News outlets have covered the conservative scheme to get Donald Trump...
Remember last week, when Lizzo posted what appeared to be her resignation from music on Instagram? Now, she's clarifying that writing "I didn't sign up for this shitI quit" didn't actually mean she was quitting music. She's just quitting thenegative vibes? I guess? In case you missed it, the Emmy and Grammy winner vented to her followers on Friday that she was "getting tired of putting up with being dragged by everyone in my life and on the internet." The missive appeared to be in response to...
