Are there celebs you are just rooting for, for whatever reason?

Nor should you, because, again, you are American.

Gwyneth Paltrow. I know she spreads medical misinformation but I can't help but find her a little charming all these years later.

Amber Heard - There was credible evidence that she was a battered wife but some people were a little too attached to the dude who played a pirate in their favorite Disney movie 20 years ago.


+1 on Markle! I can't imagine how hard it must be to shake off all the racist hatred from the tabloid piranhas and those who read them. That has to stick to you and weigh you down. I know those attacking her are pure trash but even trash people have power to make you feel bad.

It's evident that a lot of her haters are just racist. And I never say that. Believe me, I'm a huge hater, and an equal opportunity one at that! I don't hate people because I'm racist or jealous. I hate them because they suck. But I genuinely think the people who hate her might be a little bit racist. Not all of them. But a significant portion.

Also very weird to me how it's split down party lines. She's really hated by conservatives. Donald Trump. Donald Trump Jr. Heritage Foundation. Megyn Kelly. Like, you're really effing weird if you tout American values but your biggest complaint about a former C-list actress is that she "disrespected royals." Royals aren't an American value.

Though, I guess in fairness to the heritage foundation, the lawsuit isn't about Meghan Markle. It's about Prince Harry's immigration process and that's only because they want to catch ICE and DHS with egg on their face. But you can't convince me those guys are Meghan Markle stans.

And of course the Republicans eat it up. Every time that lawsuit gets a little bit of press, the haters are like, "YES, deport Meghan Markle!" when that's not even what the suit is about.

Kevin Spacey. Dude was completely canceled by Hollywood and has spent millions of dollars defending himself in court and has been convicted of nothing. He is being forced to sell his house to pay off his bills.

Halsey. Stricken by cancer at the height of her career.

Lindsay Lohan. She's a survivor and I'm so proud of her ability to recognize that she literally needed to move to a dry country to kick alcoholism.

I hold out hope that Kanye will get effective treatment.


I'm in Dubai now. Expats here drink waaaaay more than they do in other countries we've lived in Europe or Asia. I know so many people who get completely plastered every weekend (or sooner).

I'm not a heavy drinker, but we're having a dinner this weekend, so I just picked up a couple bottles of wine tonight from a liquor store, which was full of people. Dubai is definitely not a "dry country." Quite the opposite, in fact.

And, yes, many of the locals drink too. Lindsay might or might not have struggled with alcoholism, but you know nothing about Dubai if you really think it is a "dry country", or even a place where people drink less than the US or Europe.

Dude is a predator. He was convincing playing sick creeps because he was one. NOT pulling for him, at all.

Christina Applegate and Michael J Fox - I know their diseases are degenerative but hope springs eternal that they find a cure in their lifetime.

Princess Kate - I always liked her she embraced her role and clearly loves being a mom and I hope she has a complete and full recovery.

Barron Trump - he is just starting out into adulthood and he deserves to be judged on his own merits and for the person he is

Melania Trump - rooting that she is really the brains behind the operations similar to the wife Claire in House of Cards


No to Johnny Depp or Melania Trump. He’s an abuser with an outsized ego. She’s a complicit eurotrash pseudo-model. Remember that jacket “I really don’t care.” The worst.

Lauren Sanchez, not being ironic or trolling

Celine Dion. She’s really struggling with her health and wants to be there for her boys.

Kate Middleton. Same deal. I truly feel for her .

All the money in the world means nothing when it comes to the most valuable/important thing which is good health

I feel for Hillary Clinton as well as Chelsea. Class acts .

BTS, they built themselves from almost nothing starting ant a young age in a tough environment, and get a lot of hate in the US. They seem like they’ve grown up into fine people and I admire them.

Jennifer Anniston. Brangelina did her wrong, and karma continues to kick them in the ass.

John Mulaney. Chelsea Handler. I have a soft spot for comedians. They admit their flaws and laugh at them.

Another person who roots for Ayo. She was great in the one movie I've seen her in, but she's just so darn cute I love seeing photos of her.

DP and he has never been convicted. I doubt the claims and think they were made during a time when everyone was on the cancel bus.
