I appreciate you guys not repeating any antisemitic remarks!! Very necessary and respectful.
#1 The Pirates of the Caribbean and that crazy ass bitch from Atlantis
Shakira met her spouse on the set of a song she stole then ten years later someone stole her man ? 👀
Why is that James Corden thing even a scandal? He got his order messed up twice. Who would not be frustrated? If that was me I would walk out, tell the waiter what I think and never be back agian..
How do you cheat on Shakira?! Her hips don't lie.
Amber is an abuser
Finally someone that recognizes that Shakira is Colombian!
The Johnny Depp and Amber Heard defamation trial should have been called 'the defecation trial'.
No Todd & Julie Chrisley scandal?! Really?!
When you talk about Ezra Miller, why do you keep using the word “they“ instead of “he“?
Wow, I thought Ye would be number one. But speaking of him…although I generally couldn’t care less about the Kardashians, Khloé just can’t win in the dating world.
To be exact about Johnny Depp and Amber heard Johnny Depp was fined liable for what his lawyer said not what johnny said
Remember God loves you♥️.
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Please repent, change your life around and live for Him🙏🙏..
He is coming back soon🥳🎊……..
Amber is and always will be a liar
It's great to see bad people being held accountable (West, Heard, Smith eg) & good people proven to be good (Harry eg)
Ezra Miller being Flash in reel life and Reverse Flash in real life
I was like « how is anything higher than Kanye? » and then… I remembered 😂
also isn’t Shakira’s tax evasion bigger than her divorce?!?!?
my 1st thought was Josh duggard…
Chris pine has beautiful eyes.
i had a crush on him..
8:06 they who? Whom was he together with?
$500 bail? Ian't it pocket change for him?
Academy is biased, otherwise Will wouldn't be banned for 10 years and Rock would get punished too
Madison Beer (EVANESCENCE) & Her Boyfriend Chris pine.
Her Song is Take Me To Church Tommy Vex
Makes me laugh wen these celebs end up apologising for their behaviour. Y not do anything wrong to apologise for lol!
This is the hypocrisy in the industry. Ezra Miller was legit arrested, admitted to stuff and yet no repercussions with The Flash, while Johnny Depp was accused of something and his career essentially was killed.
Corden, Smith, Heard I will actively avoid. The rest never even care anyway.
Still surprised, Will smith slap isn't number 1
1) Is anyone even liking Corden? 2) people should be able to say what they think, we are adults 3) who leaves shakira? Stupid move . And he is … french no? 4)- 5) it was a great movie. 6) smith is dead to me after that. I cant see his movies anymore. 7)- 8)who? 9)the guy has obviously mental issues and he should get empathy and help 10)hate depp and alway hated him ever since he booted Griecko from 21 jump street. The guy is dirt.
And Nick Carter’s sexual harassment scandal
I wish you had waited to the end of the year so you could have included the Andrew Tate/Greta Thunberg-fight
9:11 – Is Kanye West ever going to act like a calm adult?
WTF in their right mind would cheat on Shakira?
Kayne West also said that Hitler was a great person. That's not a joke. 😱
Kanye should’ve been #1 cuz his scandals were the most unforgivable. 🤷🏼♀️
These people get married thinking it’s going to last forever. And some do last until one dies but monogamy is still unnatural. Religion really screws all that up.
