Hollywood awards shows have been tiptoeing around their natural inclination to arrogant left-wing speechifying and caustic insults of the Trumps. That trend ended at the Critics Choice Awards on Friday night, as MRC’s Brent Baker revealed. “Comedian” Chelsea Handler compared Melania Trump to a prostitute.
Chelsea Handler – her friends piss on her. Literally.
When Donald Trump secured his second term as president, several wealthy liberals threatened to leave the country. Most were bluffing. Ellen DeGeneres wasn’t.
Once the queen of daytime television, Ellen packed her bags and moved to the English countryside with her wife Portia De Rossi. Seeking refuge from the political climate, the couple soon discovered that the grass isn’t always greener. Sometimes, it’s entirely scorched.
Their £15 million ($18 million) Cotswolds estate has sparked outrage among locals, with accusations that renovations are creating a flood risk and disturbing ancient Roman ruins. It’s an ironic twist — fleeing the hostility of America, only to face a different kind of hostility abroad.
In events that were foreseeable to anyone outside America’s cultural elite, the actress and popstar Selena Gomez is facing an online backlash to her now-deleted Instagram post decrying Donald Trump’s immigration policy. The offending video featured a sobbing Selena, who has Mexican heritage, wailing into her phone camera that ‘all my people are being attacked’ and that ‘I wish I could do something but I can’t’. It was a performance of such histrionic hamminess it’s little wonder Miss Gomez missed out on an Oscar nod for Emilia Perez.
Selena Gomez just tried pulling off what she could not deliver in her latest box office flop: a convincing performance. In a now-deleted Instagram video, the entertainer sobbed over deportations under the new Trump administration. “I wish I could do something,” she whimpered, tears streaming down her face.
The problem with these theatrics is their glaring inconsistency. Americans can respect principled celebrity activism, even when they disagree with it, but not when it only surfaces to serve hyper-partisan narratives.
I didn't have Selena Gomez on my bingo card getting canceled in January of 2025.

It was a challenging task but an esteemed panel of NewsBusters editors led by MRC President L.Brent Bozell and MRC’s Vice President for Research and Publications Brent Baker boiled down all the biased outbursts from lefty hack hosts, anchors, reporters and pundits in 2024 and on December 18 announced The Brian Stelter Award for Quote of the Year.
Americans — especially Republicans — do not want to hear political opinions from athletes and celebrities, an AP-NORC poll reveals.
The survey, a collaboration between the Associated Press and the University of Chicago’s nonpartisan National Opinion Research Center, was published Thursday.
One of the ways that leftist entertainers reinforce the cartoon of their intolerance of their audience is my going to European film festivals and seeking sympathy abroad over what a mountain of morons they have to live with in America. This was guaranteed to happen after all of their rantings and ravings about Donald Trump fell on deaf ears.
But who could possibly be the worst abuser of the public than Alec Baldwin, who shot a woman dead and is at the rock bottom of his appeal as a movie star? Shooter McBaldwin showed up at the Turin Film Festival in Italy to say at least half of America are “very uninformed about reality.”
Hollywood actor-director Rob Reiner has deleted his X / Twitter account in the wake of President-elect Donald Trump’s resounding victory. His exit marks the end of an era for Reiner who had spent years using the platform to spread false claims and wild accusations aimed at Trump and his supporters — including repeatedly smearing them as white nationalists.
He’s back.
Rob Reiner has posted his first message to X / Twitter following Kamala Harris’ loss to President-elect Donald Trump two weeks ago. In his brief message, he urged the left to build a “competitive information distribution system” to combat “disinformation” — a baffling suggestion since the left already controls the vast majority of the corporate news media and nearly all online search engines.

On Tuesday’s broadcast of ABC’s “The View,” co-host and ABC News Senior Legal Correspondent and Analyst Sunny Hostin issued a “legal note” after Attorney General nominee Matt Gaetz issued a statement to ABC News on allegations against him.
NEW: The View host Sunny Hostin fumes as she is forced to read a legal note just minutes after presenting the Matt Gaetz allegations as a “fact.”
Hostin: They discussed the fact that once [Gaetz] finds out that she’s 17, he stops having s*x with her.
Hostin 3 min later: Matt… pic.twitter.com/USvYjnWqKZ

Whoopi Goldberg threw support behind calls for sex strikes — in response to President-elect Donald Trump’s landslide victory in the 2024 election — during an unhinged rant on The View in which she lectured all men in America, telling them they’re not going to “get any” if they speak out of line.
New Yorkers aren’t letting Whoopi Goldberg’s sourpuss act spoil their favorite spot for sweet treats, after she put a local bakery on blast on national TV, alleging they refused to serve her because of her lefty political beliefs.
“I think it’s ridiculous. Why would she come all the way to Staten Island for her cupcake? To make an issue? They’ve been here forever,” Deborah Bernaz, 68, said of the comic’s claims against the beloved 145-year-old Holtermann’s Bakery on Staten Island.
Remember the gilded Hollywood elites who vowed they would flee the country if former President Donald Trump won the election and returned to the White House?
They included Bruce Springsteen, Cher, Samuel L. Jackson, Whoopi Goldberg, George Lopez, Miley Cyrus, John Legend and Chrissy Teigen, Amy Schumer, and Lena Dunham. Even Barbra Streisand vowed to move to Australia or Canada.
President-elect Donald Trump’s decisive victory over Kamala Harris on Tuesday has sent left-wing Hollywood celebrities into a dark psychological spiral, with some expressing apocalyptic visions of the country’s future and others condemning those who voted for Trump as immoral and sexist.
“It’s a war on women,” Grammy-winning pop star Billie Eilish warned.
List of people that will be leaving the country because of a Trump victory.

Way back in the ancient time of 2015, Matt Drudge found himself befuddled about why he was suddenly seeing actress Amy Schumer everywhere, when he didn’t find her particularly funny, insightful, or enjoyable. “Who is Amy Schumer? Where did she come from? Why is she being force-fed on population?” (The actress is Chuck Schumer’s cousin, and looking back I wonder if Drudge was implying that family connections were a driving force behind her then-burgeoning fame.)
