JONAH HILL: HIS MAKEOVER GAVE HIM AN EGO BOOST

Dane Cook posted this photo on Instagram with CAPTION THIS. It’s a still from 2007’s Superbad featuring accused “emotional abuser” Jonah Hill as a nerdy high school kid desperate for female company. Jonah was a totally different person back then- he was the chubby funny, guy with the curly hair who couldn’t get a girlfriend. For the past few years, Jonah has been giving himself a TOTAL makeover. He moved to the beach, learned to surf and started doing it every day. He lost weight, cultivated a tan, and his hair turned blonde! We’re thinking the thinner and better looking he got, the more powerful he felt. The surfer girl he dumped for his baby-mama posted texts Jonah sent -indicating he attempted to control her behavior. The new improved Jonah figured he could get away with that stuff!

WE DIDN’T WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT BILL MURRAY

Looks like most of us chose to ignore the hints about the dark side of Bill Murray – after all, we loved him on SNL– not to mention Ghostbusters and Groundhog Day (above.) His two wives tried to tell us about his bad behavior and we didn’t pay attention. He cheated on his first wife (they had 2 kids) and married his mistress Jennifer. Four more kids later Jennifer claimed he was abusive, addicted to weed and alcohol, and told her she was “lucky he didn’t kill her.“ She got a restraining order and a divorce. Recently Lucy Liu said he made “inexcusable” comments on the Charlie’s Angels set (DYING to know what they were) and Richard Dreyfuss called him a “drunken bully.” We feel bad that the movie Being Mortal, that Aziz Ansari wrote and was directing, has been closed down because of Bill’s “inappropriate behavior.” This film is a big deal for Aziz – it’s his first. Hopefully, this situation can be fixed.

MARGARET QUALLEY CREDITS FKA TWIGS FOR HER COURAGE

In December we advised Once Upon a Time in Hollywood star Margaret Qualley, 26, to reconsider her romance with Shia LaBeouf after his ex-girlfriend FKA Twigs filed a lawsuit accusing him of sexual battery, assault, and verbal abuse. We can imagine Shia attempting to rationalize the situation to Margaret, assuring her that Twigs was just a disgruntled ex. But not long after that, Sia stepped up with HER allegations against Shia and others followed. Margaret finally managed to split from Shia in January (No doubt to the great relief of her mother Andie MacDowell) Margaret had not spoken about her Shia relationship until she posted on Instagram a photo of Twigs on the cover of Elle magazine, and simply captioned it: “Thank you.” ( We’re guessing she started noticing negative things about Shia’s behavior, and got out before anything bad happened… life lesson learned.

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

We take all forms of sexual abuse seriously, but this new face of the #MeToo movement might regret coming forward with her tale. Why? She only told half of the story and the half she left out unfortunately makes her look maniacal. During her relationship with her alleged abuser she was violent and aggressive herself and she doesn’t know IT’S ALL ON TAPE! Her then-lover had secret cameras all around his home and SHE is captured physically and verbally attacking HIM. Embarrassing. We’re betting this case will never make it to court.

GUESS WHO…..

INSTAGRAM ZAPPED MARILYN MANSON’S CAREER IN ONE WEEK

We’re betting that even Evan Rachel Wood is shocked by the power of Instagram. It was only last Monday that she posted her accusations of abuse against Marilyn Manson and his life has changed forever in a matter of days. As we write, Evan has not given any interviews- it was her Instagram claims that alerted other women who came forward with THEIR Manson stories. Dita Von Teese and Rose McGowan elegantly announced on Instagram that they were not abused in their relationships with Manson, but they fully supported Wood and others. Interviews with Manson talking about violence against women popped up. Marilyn Manson immediately lost his record label, his agent, and upcoming TV appearances. He was literally canceled in a single week. He is already claiming that his shocking and gruesome stage persona is responsible for these “horrible distortions of reality,” but he’s got an uphill battle. Do not underestimate the power of Instagram. (Personally, we were sad to hear these things about Manson – we always liked him)
