    They are positioning Pratt for a political career, look who he’s married to.
    I give it 10 years to clean him up and make him a household superhero name then they will run him for a higher office.
    We’re doomed

      God help us all.

      THIS!

      And they’re doing a thorough job at cleaning his bigotry, ties with the alt-right (three percenters), and animal abuse from the internet.

      There are people out there who legitimately don’t know how much of a piece of sh1t he is and that amazes me. Documented bigotry it’s being turned into hearsay, and that frightens me.

      As a bisexual trans man, I thank the Celebitchy comment section for always speaking against him when other places like twitter or reddit stan him. He’s human rubbish and he shouldn’t have a career at all. Full stop. He sounds like Ronald Reagan 2.0

        Soo – the celebitchy comment section is 9 outta 10 a pleasantly progressive space and I, someone who is bi as well, also appreciate the voices here. ive been lurking for…honestly probably since nearly this sites launch year, and i’ve always really enjoyed the writers and comment section here. such a rare thing now it seems.

        and back to the subject, chris pratt can get bent and then some 🙂

    Oh my gosh, I JUST bought the Social Justice Kittens calendar at a bookstore in Asheville, NC. I saw it and immediately knew I had to have it.

    That GoT article, ugh. I’m glad things are changing for filming intimate scenes, that sounds terrible.
    Hiring celebrities must have all but destroyed the voice acting industry. Plus Pratt is obnoxious.

    • Mabs A'Mabbin says:

      Direction for the main character (Bridgerton) was basically lie down. Spread legs. Scream. 😐

    Christine from Sister Wives has confirmed she left the family! So happy for her, hoping the rest leave Kody behind.

    • bettyrose says:

      I haven’t followed the show closely, but she was the one that always had a problem with him, right? But leaving Cody doesn’t mean leaving polygamy. Or undue the damage to the children she raised in polygamy. Unless – is she becoming an anti-polygamy activist? Love to see that happen!

    • BeanieBean says:

      Excellent! I didn’t keep up with those folks, but anytime a woman leaves that cult I’m happy for her. It’s tough to break away.

  5. Emma says:

    Game of Thrones continues to sound awful for the actors. What a mess.

  6. Mabs A'Mabbin says:

    As hard as it may have been for Gemma, she was amazing. And especially that brothel scene. She nailed it.

  7. A. Key says:

    And most of those intimate scenes were unnecessary in the first place. I felt terrible for the actors.

  8. FF says:

    Fascinating how no one’s calling for Pratt to be replaced on his Marvel franchise…
