Happy
Thanksgiving,
everyone!
Unfortunately
for
some,
their
highly
publicized
exploits
and
embarrassments
might
make
it
difficult
to
celebrate
this
year’s
annual
American
feast.

There
isn’t
a
calendar
year
that
goes
by
where
a
celebrity
or
politician
isn’t
involved
in
some
sort
of

scandal
but
2023
has
been
particularly
rife
with
foolishness
and
blog
fodder.
In
the
last
week
alone
we’ve
had
lawsuits,
sexual
abuse
allegations,
domestic
violence,
and
one
of
the
fastest
settled
lawsuits
we’ve
ever
seen.

We’ve
also
watched
famous
folks
become
completely
unhinged
with
some
very
ugly
behavior
over
the
conflict
between
Israel
and
Palestine.

Some
celebs
opted
for
side
pieces
over
side
dishes
and
cheating
is
a
great
way
to
get
called
out
over
a
holiday
dinner
with
the
family.
Y’all
seen

Soul
Food. 

Anyway,
flip
the
page
to
see
some
of
the
biggest
jive
turkeys
of
the
year
2023.

Diddy

Let’s
address
the
elephant
in
the
room
out
the
gate.

Diddy
was
outed
by
his
ex-girlfriend

Cassie
for
alleged
crimes
and
abuses
that
made
our
skin
crawl.
Sean
Combs
has
been
the
subject
of
ugly
rumors
for
years
but
the
accusations
levied
against
him
this
time
seemed
like
much
more
than
innuendo.
Cassie

knows this
man
and
her
civil
suit
against
him
rings
true
to
ears
of
those
who
have
long
suspected
that
Mr.
“Take
That”
aka
“Love”
was
a
wolf
in
Sean
John
clothing.

George
Santos

His
might
not
be
a
name
that
you
know
super
well
but
his
legacy
of
scandal
will
be
the
talk
of
Capitol
Hill
for
years
to
come.

Santos
is
on
the
precipice
of
being
expelled
from
Congress
after
it
was
reveled
that
he
spent
thousands
of
dollars
in
campaign
donations
on
expensive
hotels,
Airbnbs,
Ubers,
botox,
Sephora
makeup,
and
luxury
designer
purses.
Just
do
ya
Googles.
The
story
is
insane.

Jonah
Hill

This
might
be
one
that
flew
under
the
radar
for
some
folks
but
when
you
become
the
#1
trend
on
Twitter
(we’re
never
calling
it
“X”,
Elon
can
pound
sand)
your
actions
are
far
from
under
the
rug.
Much
like
Diddy,

Jonah’s
ex-girlfriend
Sarah
Brady
accused
the
actor
of
being
a
manipulative
misogynist
and
emotional
abuser.
Brady
posted
screenshots
of
texts
from
a
thin-skinned
Hill
demanding
that
she
remove
photos
of
herself
in
bathing
suits
and
“thongs”
in
addition
to
a
long
list
of
f-boy
control
tactics.

Lizzo

Sometimes,
the
people
who
are
trying
the
hardest
to
appear
righteous
and
upstanding
are
severely
overcompensating
for
their
trash
behavior.
Lizzo’s
music
is
like
audio
Disney
World
where
things
are
nice,
respectful,
inclusionary,
and
uplifting.

Let
her
former
dancers
tell
it,
Ms.
“Good
As
Hell”
is
really
hell
on
heels.
Multiple
former
employees
cited
instances
of
workplace
harassment,
sexual
shaming,
and
of
all
things,
fat
shaming.
People
are
no
longer
here
for
celebrity’s
crass
behavior
and…it’s
about
damn
time.

T.J.
Holmes
and
Amy
Robach

If
trash
cans
were
Transformers,

T.J.
and
Amy
would
be
Optimus
Prime
and
Bumblebee.
Holmes
and
Robach
were
both
canned
from
their
Good
Morning
America
hosting
gigs
after
photos
of
them
being
romantic
went
viral.
ABC
made
clear
that
dating
an
equally-yoked
co-worker
isn’t
against
company
policy,
the
fact
that
T.J.
was
cheating
on
his
oblivious
wife
created
a
huge
distraction
at
the
studio.
Moreover,
T.J.
was
already
being
internally
investigated
for
relationships
with
other
staffers
and
colleagues.

Amy
Schumer

Amy’s
are
having
a
very
bad
year.
Schumer
isn’t
exactly
the
greatest
joke
teller
of
this
generation,
in
fact,
some
argue
that
she
steals
more
jokes
than
she
tells.
However,

her
behavior
toward
actress
Asia
Jackson
is
no
laughing
matter.
Schumer
was
put
on
blast
by
Jackson
after
she
jumped
into
her
DMs
to
chide
the
young
Black
content
creator
for
her
views
on
the
Israel-Palestine
conflict.
The
comedian
could
have
just
minded
her
white
business
but
chose
to
troll
and
harass
instead.

Darius
Jackson

One
of
the
biggest
cornball
moves
of
the
year
was

Darius
Jackson’s
blasting
of
his
then-partner
and
baby
mama
Keke
Palmer.
Jackson
was
in
his
feelings
over
Usher’s
serenading
of
Palmer
during
a
Las
Vegas
show
and
took
to
Twitter
to
essentially
slut
shame
Keke
for
enjoying
her
night
out.
After
all,
she’s
a
mother
and
mother’s
don’t
deserve
joy…

Pardison
Fontaine

Megan
Thee
Stallion
and
the
New
York
rapper
appeared
to
be
in
sweet
Black
love
until
people
noticed
that
his
photos
had
been
scrubbed
from
Meg’s
Instagram
page.
It
became
clear
that
there
was
a
breakup
but
confirmation
came
in
the
form
of
bars
in
Meg’s
single
“Cobra”
where
she
blasted
her
ex
for
allegedly
cheating
on
her
in
her
own
bed.
In
response,
“Pardi”
released
a
retaliatory
single
of
his
own
called
“Thee
Person”
where
he
accuses
Megan
of
getting
lipo
surgery,
lying
on
him,
and
misleading
the
public.
Pardi
done.
You
ain’t
gotta
go
home
but
you
got
to
get
the
hell
out
of
here.

Jada
Pinkett

Nothing,
and
we
mean
nothing,
is
likely
to
topple
the

scandal
and
shenanigans
that
surrounded
the
rollout
and
subsequent
release
of
Jada’s
book

Worthy.
Not
only
did
Jada
reveal
that
she
and
Will
have
been
“separated”
since
2016,
she
also
revealed
that
Chris
Rock,
the
slapped,
tried
to
date
her
when
he
thought
a
divorce
from
Will
was
imminent.
Jada’s
candid
interview
will
keep
the
flame
of
gender
wars
lit
for
years
to
come.
Who
needs
Hollywood
writers
when
you
have
this
type
of
captivating
reality
content?
