Patti LuPone was on Watch What Happens Live yesterday and she was spilling the tea to Andy Cohen. The actress said that Barbra Streisand is 50 years too old to play Gypsy, the time she destroyed a dressing room when she got fired from a play in London, and what she thought of playing Madonna’s mother in Evita.
My favorite spilled tea is when she talked about how Glenn Close crashed her get together with Jon Hamm and Rannells. The three of them were having drinks in Manhattan when Close came over and sat next to the Mad Men star. After the Fatal Attraction star left, LuPone said to Hamm, “If you f*ck her, I will never speak to you again.” With that stern warning, he did not go home with her. Which is a good thing because who wants her rabbit soup.
Talking about vengeance, why is LuPone so hasty towards Close? My friend Michael gave me the deets. Close was starring as Norma Desmond in Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles, and she was a huge hit. So much so, they asked her to do the role on Broadway. There was only one problem, LuPone was already offered the role. Therefore, LuPone found out she was fired in the papers, and because of that, she is not a fan of Close.
I think the two should kiss, makeup, and star in a Broadway rendition of Whatever Happened to Baby Jane. I would pay a lot of money to see that pairing.
As we know, Andy Cohen tested positive for Coronavirus. Now that he beat it, he wants to give back. A lot of people, in his same boat, have opted to donate their plasma to help strangers. The Watch What Happens Live host wanted to do the same, but he says he was told he cannot.
The FDA does not allow men who slept with other men to donate blood. Even though they have relaxed the rules, you still have to be celibate for 3 months in order to donate plasma.
He says this is 🐂💩, and he is right. I donate platelets, and I am just at as much risk of getting HIV from a man as he is. However, the only thing that would disqualify me is if I paid for sex.
It is 2020, not 1985, we know so much more about HIV, so why are we living in the past? AIDS doesn’t care if you are gay or straight, so why are we still acting as it does.
We need to get into the present and remove that clause. People need blood and plasma, so why discriminate against a large part of the population?
Hopefully, Andy Cohen’s plea will be heard from the right people, and gay men will be able to donate again, and donate again ASAP.
Before Andy Cohen was the man in charge of the Real Housewives of New York, he was charging one of the ladies from Sex and the City for the shows she bought from him. The 36-year-old looks different with all pepper hair back in that 2004 episode.
Hours after Andy Cohen annoucned that he would be doing Watch What Happens Live from his apartment starting on Sunday, he posted on socal media it will not be happening.
After a few days of self-quarantine, and not feeling great, I have tested positive for Coronavirus. As much as I felt like I could push through whatever I was feeling to do #WWHL from home, we’re putting a pin in that for now so I can focus on getting better. I want to thank all the medical professionals who are working tirelessly for all of us, and urge everybody to stay home and take care of themselves.
I hope that all the housewives are sending him chicken soup and taking care of him. After all, he has been taking care of them for all of these years.
Do you remember when America’s Next Top Model was one of the biggest shows on The CW. Then it became the “it’s still on the air” show until it wasn’t. That is when VH-1 tried to save it, and they gave it 2 seasons.
Well, it has been two years since we got a new season, and Andy Cohen asked Tyra Banks on his show Watch What Happens Live if her competition show will be back. She told him that she does not know. However, she would like it to come back for its 25th cycle.
They should wait until 2028, which would be the show’s 25th anniversary. By then we will have forgotten about it even more than we remember it now.
