Ah, the smell of the WW3 with the morning coffee. No, I don't  like it.

And all the people posting about Trump being a Russian agent and the Syrian air strike being a PR move for Trump with Russians being in on it, and everything is choreographed. Stop, I beg you. Ask any Russian what they think and I am pretty sure they will tell you that this is not how Russians operate.

You will sleepwalk into the WW3 all the way believing that this is all planned by Trump and Putin. It will be too late when you finally realize it is not a game, and there is no devious plan, but two nuclear powers on a brink of a confrontation. Are you willing to take the chance?

Anonymous asked: I just wanted to say that I love your site. I have been a regular reader (never comment, though!) of Celebitchy for two or three years now, and Kaiser's constant race-baiting is ridiculous. She looks for an argument in EVERY post and it's so negative. I've been trying to look for a celebrity gossip blog that is not so negative but it's hard...I agree with everything that you write about on Banned from Celebitchy, from the nasty commenters to the faux-feminism!

Thank you for the kind words. I am glad to hear this.

Somehow little by little CB descended from being fun and snarky to outright negativity. Being snarky is ok, as long as it is done in a lighthearted manner and is not  malicious, but the line is pretty thin and is easy to cross.

Anonymous asked: Although I was not banned from CB, I actually banned myself from posting ever again a couple of years ago. (In fact, a few of my own comments I disliked and asked CB to delete them for me.) This was for many of the reasons you stated, but the overall negativity of the site was getting me down, and no matter what I wrote, I felt I was only perpetuating the spin. No question for you really, I'm just glad to know I was not alone in my feelings for CB.

Agree with you there. CB is extremely negative now. It is really not a healthy place. But it was different  2-3 years ago when I started reading it. For one, there were 3-4 regular writers, not only Kaiser. Kaiser is the most negative one. And I almost always disagree with her, so that got me banned pretty quickly.))

I rarely bother going there, maybe once a week, just to keep this blog afloat. But when I was banned for the 2nd time I felt like I needed a place to speak up because what Kaiser does with manipulating the posts and censoring of any opposing opinions is not right.

Anonymous asked: You started a Tumblr to complain about Celebitchy?! That's negative. Why not start your own Celeb gossip board where anyone can speak freely on gossip. What is the point in putting down someone else site becuase YOU don't agree with their posts? You're giving Celebitchy more attention...

Thank you for asking. )) I started this blog so that I could post what I think since I am not allowed to do that on Celebitchy. They banned me for disagreeing with “the party line”.

I am not someone who you can just tell to shut up and I will comply. I stand behind the things I say. If I say something it usually means I believe it. To be shut down and not allowed to speak  and defend my point of view is offensive to me.

it is interesting that you think I am negative because one of my main disagreements with Celebitchy is that they are too negative. I am not negative enough for them, apparently. I don’t immediately jump on somebody for a slight misstep.  I prefer to give the benefit of a doubt. I don’t willfully misinterpret other people’s world or omit fact to construct a narrative for which to criticize them. 

As for why I don’t I start my own site. Well, for one thing I already have a full time job. And it pays much better than a job of a gossip writer. I am also very good at it what I do for a living and I enjoy it.

Anonymous asked: I too was recently banned from Celebitchy, while defending myself :) I became tired of women attacking other women, based on a woman's appearance. I asked the question why should women invest so much time in tearing down other women. It is one thing to question a woman's work ethic, but the woman looked lovely. I expressed the opinion that it is hypocrisy to tear down other women based on their looks and then criticize on the same day Bill O'Reilly for attacking a woman based on her looks.

This is a familiar story. I think I read one on Amal and one on Chris Pine (even though he is not a woman) recently and I see there is another one on Mara today. I noticed Kaiser only writes those about people she doesn’t like.

Why is it even a topic of conversation? It is bewildering to me.  Amal, for example, looked stunning. But people still have to find a fault with her. Her shoes were too sparkly for the dress, apparently.

Kate Middleton also can never dress right, according to CB. She looks fine to me most of the time. She looks definitely better than me every time. )) I noticed the commenters have this strange negative obsession with her nude shoes. You would think wearing nude shoes is a crime on the level of torturing pets.

The whole endless criticism of clothes is exhausting. Commenters on CB take it way too seriously. Why do they expect a celebrity have a perfectly put together outfit every time?  It takes days to plan an outfit, and then it is only worn once. It is such a waste. Just judge the people for their actions, the end of.

Talking about clothes can be fun, but when it turns negative and toxic, people need to step back and really think about - why is it so important to them what shoes a celebrity wears?

Anonymous asked: Just wanted to say that I "banned" myself from Celebitchy several weeks ago, because I was tired of Kaiser deleting my posts so often. I felt like it was a personal attack, because it happened too often. Each time it happened, I would go back to see who had written the article, knowing it would be "Kaiser." She has much in common with Trump, whom she often calls "Emperor Baby Fists," because she does, indeed, see herself as "Empress," i.e., "Kaiser."

Anonymous asked: Have any suggestions for an entertainment site that isn't so 'bitchy'? I just like to read a little (harmless) gossip about movie celebs sometimes, but it's all so invasive or cracky or stalkery everywhere. Celebitchy has nice photos sometimes but they are mean. Just curious if you know of someplace better.

Unfortunately I haven’t been able to find a non-bitchy celebrity gossip site with a good layout, as of yet. If anyone has recommendations, feel free to share.

Some people recommend D-listed, but I find their layout and comments sections to be badly organized.

A great comment by Lalu on the Chris Evans thread today. This is what I find to be toxic about so many posters on CB. Yes, you are progressive, and you are against Trump. That is fine. But why are you so negative and intolerant. The type of ideological purity required by people posting on CB is very reminiscent of communists - if you are not with us, you are against us.

This leads to infighting and destructions of  your own supporters over small insignificant differences. It makes your side weaker, not stronger.

And here we have master troll Kaiser fishing for clicks by purposely misinterpreting what Kristen Stewart said and then topping it off by blaming Stewart for an affair with Sanders, while Sanders is not even mentioned.

“ Do you see why I’m irritated? “I don’t view the whole Twilight blow-up as being generally traumatic.” Yeah, that’s because you weren’t Liberty Ross. Liberty had two small kids and she had uprooted her life in London to come to LA so Sanders could fulfill his dream of being a Hollywood director. And then he cheated on Liberty with a younger actress. It was traumatic for Liberty. “

I don’t know, but it seems unfair to blame a single woman for an affair before the husband. Sanders was the one who was married, he was the one who knew the truth of his marriage. Not to mention that at my workplace the whole thing would fall under the definition of the sexual harassment. And it wouldn’t be the employee who would’be blamed for it.

Kaiser only remembers about being a feminist when it suits her.

Oh, wow. The posters on Celebitchy today seem especially toxic/ angry. This is from Susan Sarandon post. Every other comment there is like this. In the big scheme of things, Susan Sarandon is a decent human being and is harmless. So much anger towards a person for  having a different political opinion is frankly scary.

Why is she still talking about that? Just shut up. She’s the reason I don’t watch Feud.

Condescending, smug, and passive-aggressive remarks towards Hillary.

I want to smack her.
