0:00James Maas See, honey. I know about lighting. I'm gay. Welcome back. I'm your host, James Mars.
0:09James Maas Today is Tuesday, November 3. I can't believe it's November 3. Ugh. Alright. Let's get into the skinny.
0:16James Maas Ariana Grande is back with her boyfriend, Ricky Alvarez. Okay. So they just quietly got back together a minute ago. They dated ten years ago. I love this so much for them because, you know, I mean, they know who each other are.
0:28James Maas They've grown for a really long amount of time. They had dinner in Austin, Texas, like, a little bit ago, a few months ago, and I guess that they rekindled their romance. And I think they look really cute together. I think they're both short, so that helps. But they look cute together.
0:41James Maas I like it. It's a little bit of flavor for her, and I wanna see that for her because she looked like she was a little washed out for a while. So, anyway, hopefully, he helps her. Like, I wanted to have a little bit of that urban back, like a little bit of it. You know?
0:51James Maas Just like, get a tan. Go outside. I like that for you, Ari. But what I love is this clip I'm about to play you. Okay?
0:57James Maas So they went out. They were there together with masks on trying to be an incognito, and they were out together at this... I think it was a marathon in New York. But, anyway, someone was coming up to random people and saying, can you write a note of love to someone else and just sign it your name and put it in this envelope? And then they take the envelope around and people pick out a note, and then it's something beautiful and they...
1:17James Maas Everyone feels good. Anyway, so they realized it was Ariana Grande. Then they cut to this other girl. She's pulling out the note, and, it says something gorgeous. I can't remember, but you'll be watching the clip.
1:27James Maas And, basically, it was signed Ari. She was, oh my god. You just got a note from Ariana Grande. It says, you did it from Ari and Ricky. No.
1:36James Maas No. No. No. I can't believe you've picked that one. That's from Ariana Grande.
1:39James Maas She wrote that this morning. Anyway, I love them together. More on that soon. I am so excited for you, Ari. I wanna see you in love for a really long amount of time and get married.
1:48James Maas Show us what a princess bride would look like. Sydney Sweeney is considering converting. Oh my god. Her and Scooter Braun. What do you think?
1:57James Maas I wanna know in the comment section. What do you think about Scooter Braun and Sydney Sweeney together? I think they're cute. I definitely used to want him. Like, you know, when you just sit around thinking...
2:06James Maas Well, maybe not everyone thinks this, but, like, I wonder if he's a little bit gay. Like, could I try and get him? The answer is probably no. But I love them together. I love that she's considering converting.
2:16James Maas I mean, she's super serious about it. He definitely got this hot number. Like, that is really... I mean, he's batting above his average with Sydney Sweeney. She's very hot.
2:26James Maas And I like it. I was married a little bit to a Jew, and I loved it. I I loved going to the temple. He was, like, not a good Jew, though. Like, he was, like, you know, the one that's a bit more relaxed, and I loved that.
2:36James Maas I really did love it. Very welcoming. Loves gays. All about it. Love them.
2:41James Maas Go Sydney Sweeney. Do it. Oh, she's like Charlotte from Sex and the City. Oh, that was so cute. Oh, remember how she would always bring it up like, I converted to Judaism for you.
2:50James Maas Take out the... You didn't take out the trash. I converted to... For Jude... Anyway, whatever.
2:55James Maas Mogging is the word of the year per Gen z and some dictionaries. I'm split on this one. So Mogging, had to look up. Okay. So, basically, it comes from the original word of alpha male of the group, amog, and then they shortened it because that's what they do.
3:10James Maas Actually, we do that in Australia too. Yeah. I mean, mogging, I mean, I don't really love it just because, like, I see that clavicular guy saying it all the time, and I'm like, ugh, what a waste of fucking space that dude is. Like, seriously. Ugh.
3:22James Maas Mog. Mogging. I like it. I wanna mog people. I rarely do, but I would like to.
3:27James Maas And I know that he probably made up or maybe made that, looks maxing word, like, really popular. So I'm just not down with the streamers at the moment. They can't help themselves, and I don't know why anyone would wanna watch them twenty four seven. But mogging is the word of the year, so go and use it in a sentence today. Vivian officially drops Pitt, the fourth Jolie Pitt kid to do it.
3:51James Maas Vivian Pitt. She is no longer Vivian Pitt. Do not call her that. She will punch you in the face. I mean, that's four kids to get rid of their dad's name.
3:57James Maas Is he not hanging out with them? What's going on, Brad? I mean, he's a really hot guy. I feel like he's that kind of dad that, like, loves his kids but from afar. I mean, that's just me assuming.
4:06James Maas But, like, you know, I knew my dad loved me at that age too, but sometimes dads just don't really wanna hang with their kids like that. You know? So maybe she's, like, throwing on the extra love, and then the kids are just like, you know, kids these days, they're so into their feelings, which I love, but he's not, you know, giving them enough of what they need, and now they need to change their last name. So funny. I had a friend of mine that...
4:25James Maas Okay. Let's just say without saying his name, they owned all the oil in America. And his mom was married, so she inherited the name. So then he wanted to change his name legally and drop the dad's name because it was, like, a stepfamily of them, but it was a very famous name. Anyway, kids love changing their names.
4:41James Maas It's like changing blouses these days, I guess. Blouses? Jeez. I'm really showing my age. Who the fuck uses the word blouse?
4:49James Maas Anyway... Alright. Good luck to you, Angelina's kid, Vivian. What will her new name be? Vivian Jolie?
4:57James Maas Let's do some research on that. Paris Jackson demands 600,000,000 from Michael Jackson's estate. Okay. Paris, you should have your money. I was reading this this morning, morning, and I love her.
5:09James Maas She's been sober for a very long time now. She seems very well adjusted. I met her once, and she was absolutely awesome. Like, so fucking awesome. I thought, how did you turn out like this during all of that and having that dad and all the controversy?
5:21James Maas I watched a documentary the other day that I didn't love because I've always thought that he was innocent until this documentary, but I still can't believe it or have an opinion on it because I'm still on the fence and I haven't finished the doc. But Paris should have her money. Okay? Who cares? If she wants to spend it all in one go, like, let her fucking spend it.
5:39James Maas Oh my god. She's been through enough. Plus, it's her money. Like, fuck off. What?
5:43James Maas So they can just keep milking the tea? The executives just get to take all the money and, like, draw their salaries? Like, give it to her. Let her have it. It's not like it's gonna stop anyway.
5:51James Maas His, like, back catalog and... Or whether they still own that. His name and likeness is worth a mint anyway. It will continue to generate money for years. Give her her six month...
5:59James Maas 100,000,000. Bill Belichick snaps. He's a guy... An old guy that got with a young girl. She...
6:05James Maas He owns... No. No. He's the head coach for the Patriots, New England Patriots. Maybe he's not the coach.
6:09James Maas I think he just owns it. But, basically, he was asked a question about him splitting from Jordan Hudson. He quietly split, like, last year. So that makes me think, because she's like a young little huddy. It's, like, so random that they were together, but, like, very much tag the sponsor, which is a term for, like, you know, when people would be on yachts and stuff and everyone's like, fuck.
6:29James Maas There's an old dude in the background. Tag the sponsor. Why aren't you tagging the guy? Anyway, so, she needs to tag that sponsor, but she didn't when they broke up quietly. And that means I think that she got some sort of payment.
6:40James Maas And so it was definitely... I mean, why wouldn't you? You know? Like, shutting her up for him is not gonna be that expensive because he's worth hundreds of millions of dollars, if not a billion. I don't know.
6:49James Maas I don't know, Bill. Let us know. But, yeah, he snapped and was like, do you work for a tabloid now? And... Because they asked him a question about, like, when they split and about it, and I guess he was mad about it.
6:59James Maas He wants to focus on... Is it football? Yeah. I think. So he wants to focus on football.
7:05James Maas I mean, I think he doesn't want to be reminded that he dated, like, a 24 year old or however she was. No. 25 year old when he's 74. Julius Stiles. She got voted off Dancing With The Stars.
7:16James Maas She should've won. She should've won just because of, like, the amount of, like, gut... No. Emotional wrenching. Like, she used the Heath Ledger thing, and she was, like, ragged on by Andy Cohen and then came back from that.
7:29James Maas And there was, like, so much banter in the press, and she is a literal movie star, I think. She's a great actress. She was almost too good for the show, but she kicked ass and everyone loves her again. I'm surprised that she won't get some, like, new interest in her being on, like, a TV series or a movie after this for sure. She still looks the same, though, too.
7:48James Maas Oh, fuck. Okay. So her co... No. I was gonna say co host.
7:52James Maas Her dancing partner, Ezra Miller. Miller, I didn't realize that he was gay. Oh my god. I actually followed him the other day when I found that out. Ezra.
8:02James Maas Sookie Waterhouse calls Bradley Cooper romance a disaster. Shut up, Sookie. This was ages ago. Sorry, Silky, but I guess it was a slow news day. But, well, you might have been dating him when he was gay.
8:15James Maas Because remember there was that big rumor that he was gay for ages? And he still might be. I mean, Tom Cruise is still in the closet. How many years is that? Like, fifty years?
8:22James Maas Allegedly. Alright. So whatever. He's a disaster. Probably because he wouldn't put out.
8:27James Maas K. So Nicholas Cade, do you remember him from every movie that Gen Z hasn't seen yet? And he basically was saying he's a little bit homeless because he has to live in hotels now instead of his $10,500,000 mansion. Shut up. I mean, I'm sure this was taken out of con...
8:44James Maas Well, not out of context, but, like, you know, he's like, oh, I feel a little bit homeless, and then it becomes, like, everyone hating him. So I'm not gonna hate you today, Nicolas Cage. I remember there was this movie that he was in, and I don't know. It just really turned me on back in the day. Go look it up.
8:57James Maas I'm giving you nothing. Justin Timberlake, doc, will revisit Britney Britney and and the the Super Super Bowl Bowl scandal. Scandal. Shit. I wonder who's doing this documentary, though, because, you know, he's had a rough trip recently.
9:09James Maas You know, it was the whole Britney thing and, like, how he didn't support her enough. Janet thing, he didn't support her enough. There is a reoccurring theme here, but I think that most people in the music or entertainment industry are a little selfish, and they don't want that shit getting on them. Stepping over the dead body. Thank you very much.
9:25James Maas I'll keep my career. Let me keep going. I think that's what it was. Yeah. It kinda sucks, but, also, if it wasn't planned, at the time, I thought that it was planned and it went too far.
9:35James Maas Like, what... How does that happen? Like, you know, it was at the perfect moment. They just finished the dance move, and then her nipple comes out. I felt like it was a publicity stunt at the time, but I guess...
9:44James Maas I mean, I guess it wasn't, and this has, been something that's followed him around for years. I feel bad that it was all on Janet, though. Like, if that was, like, the plan and then to just, like, totally leave her hanging, that's fucked. But then also if it was an accident, then get over it. He accidentally had a nipple come out and, like, don't yell at him.
10:00James Maas Yell at the network, yell at the people complaining, yell at the, whatever the, you know, industry board is that, you know, make sure there's no nipples on TV. I say let's put more nipples on TV. The nipples, we all have them. You've got boobs too, in the words of that lovely lady from New Zealand. Oh, I love her.
10:18James Maas Alright, guys. That's it from me today. I'm gonna see you tomorrow, so make sure you're subscribed and you're following on Instagram and all the good stuff because wanna see you there. I wanna talk to you. Comment.
10:30James Maas I am here every morning, and I love you. Alright. Have a good one.
Keep listening
