MARCH 23, 2026
Q VOICE: OMG! Progress! Aaron Rourke has become the first WWE singles champ who is out and proud!
What’s his professional name? (Checks notes.) Evil Gay. Okay. We’ll still take it!
GR8ERDAYS: RIP to the incandescent Valerie Perrine, 82.
PEOPLE: Horrific collision at LaGuardia Airport in NYC, in which an Air Canada plane and a firetruck collided. The audio reveals one air traffic controller gave the go-ahead for the truck to proceed, then urgently called for it to stop. It did not, and two pilots died with dozens of other injuries on the plane.
YOUTUBE: Chappell Roan has engendered a lot of contempt of late for her aggressive approach to, well, aggression, chastising autograph hounds and paparazzi. A recent incident in Brazil only fanned the flames — she was accused of siccing her goons on a little girl, and chatter about the story has led to her being banned from ever performing on the beach in Rio.
I feel like in this case, it’s much ado about nothing. Her rep says:
“Chappell was not aware of any interaction between this mother / daughter and a third party security office. She did not see them at breakfast in her hotel, as she said in her video. She did not direct her personal security or anyone on her team to interact with them. Chappell holds her own teams to the highest standards and has zero tolerance for any kind of aggressive behavior towards her or her fans.”
She also released an intimate video about the nonevent. P.S. The daughter in question is Jude Law’s daughter, which might be why this elevated to a “can I speak to your (tour) manager”-type of moment.
INSTAGRAM: The use of zooming is your friend.
TMZ: Leo Radvinsky, the 43-year-old billionaire owner of OnlyFans, has died of cancer.
JOE.MY.GOD.: I’m sorry, anyone against counting valid mail-in ballots of any kind if a fucking fascist. Like the majority of our Supreme Court.
YAHOO!: Did Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner get cold feet about appearing at a gay bar in NYC for a fundraiser?
FACEBOOK: Mary J. Blige admitted an idol of hers, upon meeting her, said she needed to dye her roots and learn not to sing flat. She won’t name names, but the idol has named her own name: Chaka-Chaka-Chaka-Chaka Khan. According to her, you don’t get up and 8 o’clock in the motherfuckin’ morning and sing, unless you were up all night doing crack. Just as an example, as a hypothetical.
