Ah, nawww, has Travis become one of them? So not punk.
Awww Elton. He will be missed.
Ok but didn’t Kourtney and Travis use an embryo and IVF? They already knew the gender didn’t they? Was this more for family/friends/fans? Most people are saying they are glad it’s a boy so one less girl this family can exploit. I mean I’ve seen Rob’s daughter Dream more than I’ve seen Rob in the last 5 years ! That tells you something.
Resorting to IVF doesn’t mean you know the embryo’s sex, unless you specifically ask for gender selection and be transferred a male rather than a female embryo -or the other way round.
Correct, you usually ask for the strongest viable embryo to be implanted and can choose to not know the sex.
I watched Asteroid City this weekend. It is weird. Go into it knowing it will be all over the place. We really enjoyed it.
No one does scenery, etc like Wes Anderson.
We did IVF and didn’t know the gender until ultrasounds well into pregnancy. You can do gender selection, but you don’t have to. I think I also read that they stopped IVF but IDK.
I don’t get people hating on gender reveals. It doesn’t mean you don’t support trans kids, you can have a gender reveal and also accept and embrace same child if that gender changes later
I think it’s more that those gender reveals just seem like . . . a lot. Everything these days seems like it’s made for insta. I’m all for parties but those gender reveals don’t look the least bit fun to me and always create huge messes. Everything around having a baby has become such a commercial opportunity and this is one more production to add to the line-up.
No one cares what the gender of anyone’s baby is. It is a huge production for what? So so dumb.
Personally speaking, I just hate the ones that result in forest fires and/or massive property damage.
I think it’s sweet when people do gender reveals for their trans kids as an adult. I think the most important thing is acceptance as our children grow and become who they’re meant to be.
Boo to the cancel of Magnum PI and American Auto. AAuto had some really progressive story lines and a great cast.
American Auto got cancelled? That show was really good ! Every single episode was hilarious.
I’m so bummed about American Auto. I was lukewarm on it at first but stuck with it, and then they really hit their stride in the past season. To see it get canceled just as I’d started to really love it is… disappointing.
I hadn’t even heard of American Auto, so I just watched a couple of trailers on YouTube. Hilarious! Too bad it’s cancelled now. Maybe they’ll be picked up elsewhere.
I’m sorry to hear about Elton, but are we NOT going to talk about Rick Astley? Covering AC/DC Highway to Hell while playing drums and guitar at the festival? Just how AWESOME is he??!!! Great singing voice, sense of humor, tons of talent, and incredibly nice and humble. I used to make fun of his 80s songs, but damn this man can ROCK! Where was all AC/DC talent during the 80s?!
YES to the Rick love! I had read somewhere that he was very musically talented…now I’m a believer!
Agree 100% to the Rick Astley love!
He is terrific, that big wonderful voice + he was having a great time on stage!
I saw Elton, and he mentioned George Michael and did a song for him.
Paul McCartney was in there off stage watching Elton onstage.
McCartney, The Beatles, Lennon, Harrison, Elton, Astley, George Michael, Freddie, AC/DC, Duran Duran, Def L, Ozzy, The Stones, Clapton, Winwood, Joe Cocker, Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, Gilmour, Billy Idol, endless great music. Sad so many are gone.
Will this really be Eltons last show?
Soooo jealous of you right now. I love all those artists and have always wanted to go to Glastonbury. I can only watch snippets of video online in between work and meetings 😞. I really hope Elton doesn’t give up performing at the festival but totally get it. Performing live and touring can be grueling.
And Elton’s got kids. Don’t know how old they are, but I imagine the life of a touring rock star has got to be tough on the family.
I wish I felt that K&T new baby was not just a storyline for the show & PMK.
Those Kardashians will never go away, too bad.
It had to be a storyline. There is no way that they didn’t already know she was pregnant. I saw a pic of her in a bikini and it was very obvious. This would have been cute if it had actually been genuine but nothing with that family is genuine.
Of course he knew she is pregnant. The pregnancy announcement was for the fans and a cute throwback to Blink 182’s All the Small things video.
I get that this particular gender reveal is OTT, but having a baby these days is expensive AF. The number of parties that an average parent can handle in order to have the basics so that they have cash in case the health insurance covers a completely unknown % of the cost of giving birth/complications. The USA makes having children a difficult and completely terrifying venture. To have a planned pregnancy, gender reveal and baby shower is a show of optimism that frankly few can muster.
I am happy for them both. They sure wanted a baby and now they will have one. Congrats.
Maybe I need to give it another listen, but I thought the Nicki Minaj & Ice Spice Barbie song was completely joyless. Which was shocking, considering how much fun the original song is.
I just can’t with anything NM due to the predatory men she supports and includes in her life. And to officially attach her to Barbie is a big no from me.
Bummed about Magnum, PI. NBC could have chosen a better night for it.
