Christine Quinn is a bit of a mystery to me. Star of Netflix’s Selling Sunset, it’s been some time since I encountered someone this committed to the bit. In my own interview with her last summer, for example, she really wanted me to know that her wedding cost a million dollars. Totally lost on how to respond, I…

In late March of last year, amid stay-at-home orders and school shutdowns, a Facebook group identifying itself as “a place for Hot Mess Mamas” posted a photo of four glasses of red wine at various levels of fullness. Slapped onto the image was bold text reading, “Today’s Homeschool Lesson ‘Fractions.’” There was a…

I am not in the habit of documenting the erosion of my mental state over the course of the pandemic, because if I were to do so in earnest, I would need to take my sickbed for a year and change. It’s not that I’m stupid—quite the opposite—but a year of inside time and limited social contact has made certain parts of…

Like a good portion of the Jezebel staff, I am currently hooked on Mare of Easttown, the latest prestige crime drama from HBO starring an Oscar-winning white woman. The show stars Kate Winslet as Mare (yes her name is Mare, no she’s not the mayor) an extremely rough-around-the-edges detective in small-town…

Cindy Melero, an executive assistant at the Healthcare Chaplaincy Network in New York, has spent the last few years helping others become certified chaplains working predominantly in hospitals and hospices. But she has been doling out her own kind of spiritual care for nearly three decades as a devout Christian,…

Don’t Be Tardy is a spin-off of the Real Housewives of Atlanta that has somehow been on for eight seasons, despite that not a single person I know has ever watched an episode of it. The show is named after the failed pop career of Kim Zolciak and her flop single “Don’t Be Tardy,” for which she allegedly stiffed…

Here is a fun fact that I never would have known without The Drew Barrymore Show’s service: Laura Prepon (pronounced “pree-pon”) has named her kitchen line after a common mispronunciation of her last name. As she explained to Barrymore: “It’s Prep-On Kitchen because I feel like if you prep your food in advance it’s a…

My mom, a 68-year-old retired pianist, spends at least a few months every year roaming the country in her beloved camper. Sometimes I lend her my dog, Bukka, for brief stints to keep her company on the road. This week, I caught up with her under the pretense of Mother’s Day to talk about her travels, how it feels to…

Of all of the corpses that make up the pantheon of dead conservative assholes, few did more to enshrine ugly political tactics, racism, and race-baiting in Republican politics than Lee Atwater. And we now have a revealing glimpse of the young Atwater in his own words, thanks to his daughter, a Democrat if it must be…

Listen: just because America’s allegedly worst boss Ellen DeGeneres is living at Monica from Friends’ abode does NOT mean that there is anything wrong with her marriage to Portia de Rossi!!!

I was heavily pregnant with my first child as the covid-19 pandemic gathered pace. I spent a lot of time doom-scrolling in those Spring months. I anxiously, and often angrily, tracked the bans on birth partners in New York City hospitals, and the separations of mothers presumed to have covid from their newborns. I…

Between the fact that Hollywood Foreign Press Association has zero Black members and the expulsion of the organization’s former long-term President over a racist email, it’s not surprising that the organization behind the Golden Globes has decided it’s time for some real changes. Of course, this timely decision was…

A lobbying group representing the U.S. wireless industry has reportedly been working to weaken proposed legislation that, if passed, would allow victims of domestic violence to remove themselves from family phone plans they share with their abuser. The law, which is called the Safe Connections Act, proposes letting…

On Thursday, the House Oversight and Reform Committee held a hearing examining the serious issue of maternal mortality, specifically focusing on the racial disparities in maternal outcomes. Not only does the U.S. have the highest rate of pregnancy-related deaths of any industrialized country, but that number has…

We’ve made a grievous error here at Jezebel Dot Com. Somehow, despite all our top minds on the pulse of culture, we forgot to mention it was Adele’s birthday on Wednesday. I humbly regret this unfortunate mistake.

On Thursday morning, Florida Governor and stunt queen Ron DeSantis appeared to sign a restrictive new voting rights bill live on Fox News morning show Fox and Friends. But Fox News is now claiming they were completely unprepared for the event, which aired exclusively on their network and was closed to all outside…
