EVENING NIGHTCAP: Bridgerton Ball Becomes Fyre 2.0. Anna & Tori Are HISTori. Tough Shit, Julie.

 

► A Bridgerton-theme ball turned into Fyre Festival's cousin. It all started when event organizer Uncle & Me, LLC. advertised the event as an "opportunity for fans to step into the enchanting world of the Regency era". They promised an evening of sophistication, grace, and historical charm with all the trimmings. An immersive experience into the world of the Regency era!  BTW, the event was not affiliated with the Netflix or the actual show. Fans paid from $150 up to $1,000 per ticket for the "Duke & Duchess" package. When attendees arrived dressed in their best regalia, they discovered anything but sophistication and grace. Instead of an orchestra playing classical music, it had a lone violist playing in the corner with a stripper dancing on a pole for the evening's entertainment.  Dinner was served on the finest Dollar General plastic plates by a wait staff dressed in athletic jerseys. It consisted of under cooked chicken and other delectables from a prison menu.  Decorations were inspired by a Temu clearance sale.  Read More

Comment:  The person I feel the worst for is the stripper. She was called 3 hours and told to show up with no clue of what she was getting into.  As for the guests, I do feel bad for them. But at least they had chicken. And were indoors. They could have flamed broiled it over a candle. Just saying.

► Dancing With the Has-Beens (Govt Name: DWTS) had a double elimination last night. Convicted grifter and fake heiress Anna Delvey was sent home. Karma once again caught up with her since she couldn't fake her way to a win. Meanwhile, Tori Spelling, the ex-wife of our favorite opossum, was shown the exit as well. She failed to impress the judges and opossums in the audience or at home. At least she didn't trip over herself on her way out and then filed a lawsuit against the producers "Benihana style".  I don't watch this show, but I'm rooting for Eric Roberts. He's reached the DGAF stage in life and for that, I respect him.  Read More   

Comment:  Tori  really missed an opportunity to show the DWTS judges her 90201 dancing moves. She would have taken home the mirror ball. Better luck next time.

► Professional fraudster, tax evader, and ex-reality TV star, Julie Chrisley, was re-sentenced to 7 years in prison. Julie had requested less time. Well tough shit.  Back in 2022 a jury found her and her wax figure husband, Todd, guilty of conspiring to defraud community banks in more than $30 million in loans.  After the new sentence was handed down, their daughter, Savannah (who spoke at the Republican MAGA convention in July) said, "the prosecution and sentencing of her parents was politically motivated".  Um, no... it wasn't political motivated you MAGA rat. Your parents were guilty and a jury of their WASPY peers convicted them. Deal with it.  Read More

Comment: IMO, the 7 years she received was a gift; she should have received a longer sentence. The US justice system is extremely lenient when it comes to white collar crimes. There are people who got waaay longer prison sentences for minor crimes. In 1996, a man in New Orleans was sentenced to life without parole for stealing a $159 jacket.
