Richard Sharp Appointment “Should Not Stand,” Says Former BBC Director General
The BBC’s appointment of Chair Richard Sharp “should not stand” and the process was “fatally flawed,” according to former Director General John Birt . The embattled Sharp, who is awaiting the result of a government inquiry into his appointment, was described by Birt as “a person of obvious weight and consequence but an unsuitable candidate in one vital respect.” “I don’t think the appointment should stand,” Birt told the UK’s influential DCMS Committee (DCMSC) this afternoon. “This isn’t about political connections because governments of all kinds have appointed BBC Chairs who enjoy their confidence. But having known every BBC Chair for decades, governments have tended to have a good record for appointing people with an independent cast of mind, who will protect the BBC’s independence.” Deadline revealed last week that the BBC had raised concerns about the way the government was going about appointing its new Chairman before the controversial hire of Sharp, who has … [Read more...] about Richard Sharp Appointment “Should Not Stand,” Says Former BBC Director General

Antoine Dodson — Hide Ya Penises … I’m NO LONGER GAY
10:30 AM PT -- Dodson has posted a video on YouTube lashing out at TMZ because he thinks we implied he "worships Satan" ... which we did not. In fact, a YouTube commenter explains it best -- "Just to be clear, the article said that Hebrew Israelites 'believe' in Satan, meaning they believe that Satan exists. Most Jewish people do not believe Satan is a sentient being." Antoine Dodson -- the flamboyant home intruder thwarter -- says he's "no longer into homosexuality" ... so you can run and tell THAT, homeboy. Actually, Dodson posted a statement on Facebook explaining that he's decided to "renounce myself" -- because, "I want a wife and family, I want to multiply and raise and love my family that I create." He explains, "I could care less about the fame and fortune, I've giving all that up to know the true history of the bible. For I am the True Chosen Hebrew Israelite descendant of Judah." FYI -- the Hebrew Israelites (also known as the … [Read more...] about Antoine Dodson — Hide Ya Penises … I’m NO LONGER GAY

Jewish Orgs Reject Kanye West’s Jonah Hill IG Post, Won’t Erase Antisemitic Slurs
TMZ.com Kanye West watching an old Jonah Hill movie and saying it made him like Jewish people again does not erase his antisemitism ... not in the eyes of some prominent Jewish orgs. Watchdog group StopAntisemitism and the American Jewish Committee both tell us they need to see much more than a simple social media post from Kanye to believe he's sincere in his new feelings towards Jewish people ... and they're willing to meet with him to discuss further steps while calling on him to do way more to prove he's a changed man. Liora Rez , SA's Executive Director, tells TMZ, "Joking about a movie with Jonah Hill is not the apology that the Jewish people deserve from Kanye, particularly when his antisemitic tirades continue to have a dangerous trickle-down effect of hatred against Jews." InfoWars Remember ... it was only a few months ago when Kanye professed love for Hitler , and he also hung out with white nationalist Nick … [Read more...] about Jewish Orgs Reject Kanye West’s Jonah Hill IG Post, Won’t Erase Antisemitic Slurs
Brian Cox Backtracks on His Negative Remarks About Prince Harry and Meghan Markle
Getty Brian Cox has backtracked on negative comments he made about Meghan Markle and Prince Harry -- and he's blaming the media for taking his words out of context. The "Succession" star was interviewed by Radio Times and now says he had "enormous sympathy" for the royals after they announced they were leaving Britain's Monarchy in 2020. He previously showed little sympathy for the couple, saying Markle knew what she was getting into when she tied the knot with Harry and even fantasized about marrying Prince Charming. Getty In his Radio Times sit down, Cox said Markle got caught up in a fairytale that had an unhappy ending, referring to the Royal Family. He said the couple was the product of a dying institution (The Monarchy), which was difficult for Meghan to adapt to due to her American upbringing. Cox said Markle understandably viewed The Royal lifestyle as a fairytale, but it all went "horribly wrong” for Meghan and Harry in the … [Read more...] about Brian Cox Backtracks on His Negative Remarks About Prince Harry and Meghan Markle
Tom Sandoval Breaks Silence on Raquel, Ariana Cheating Scandal
BACKGRID Tom Sandoval has opened up publicly, at least kinda sorta, saying he couldn't handle the whole cheating thing better, but at the same time, he gives himself some wiggle room by talking about the clarity of hindsight. Tom was outside Pop Music Studios in the San Fernando Valley Monday night when a photog asked if he had regrets about cheating on Ariana with Raquel . He says he does, but also says, "Hindsight's always 20/20, man." As for why he's taking so much heat, given it's not the first-ever cheating scandal on "Vanderpump Rules," Tom passes it off this way ... "I just think it was really unexpected." He says he regrets cheating, but the fact is ... he's still with Raquel. We got photos of Tom and Raquel out after the explosive reunion show. They were chowing down at Musso and Frank in Hollywood and looked very much like a couple. TMZ broke the story of details from the yet-to-be-aired reunion show, in which things got … [Read more...] about Tom Sandoval Breaks Silence on Raquel, Ariana Cheating Scandal
