Transcript

Fame, he'd liked to be walked on a leash and play really dirty, kinky sex games. Is uh the guy put the cock in the peacock network. Okay, bitch, Hey, everybody aj Benzi here with fame is a bitch. This is your free show. Well, I'm taping it on Friday, December fifteenth. Hopefully the land late Friday. If not, you'll get it for the weekend. Wann't you guys to have something to chew on for the weekend while you're taking a break from your holiday shopping. How you bird's

doing? You know, I don't think I haven't told you guys. You know, Frank Sinatra and his pals used to use the word bird for a guy's prick. How's your bird? Hey, Charlie, how's your bird feeling? That was the code word for yeah. They used to make Sophila n say in English, how is your bird? Because Sophila Urn spoke very little English when she got to Hollywood, and Frank Sinatra and his friends convinced her that it's very common for people in America to ask men for women to ask,

then, how's your bird? They convinced that this was something that women did if they wanted to make sure a man was okay. So Sophie Laurin asked that a few times to some men who are knowledgeable about that sort of thing, And well, the joke didn't live on that long. But could you imagine if you had Sophi Laurn, a young Sophilurin coming up to you, asking you, how's your bird? How's your how's your bell and howell? How's your black and decker? Those are some great phrases too. Back

in the day, you guys even know what black and decker is? Do you guys know what bell and howell is? Probably not? Some of you are way too young. All right, You got like ten more days left for Christmas. Christmas Eve is the big holiday for US Italian so we're down to single digits now in terms of shopping. I've gotten basically shit done. Hopefully you're better off than I am, but I can't help it. There's too much stuff going on, and I've been glued to my laptop and to

my task camera recorder doing shows for you guys. Don't forget I'd do his show five times a week. You gotta go to patreon dot com slash fames a bitch where you would have heard some things that I predicted to come true that came true. I've been on a roll. What can I say, I've been on a roll. Now. I didn't go on a huge limb when I said that Cardib and Offset would be split within six months. I said that six months ago. That came true. But I say a lot

of things that come true. I knew Jonathan major As, who I'll talk about in a minute, the Marvel star was a prick before this whole thing happened with the girlfriend. Before he had this whole altercation with his girlfriend in the back of that not limousine but whatever he was being I think a truck. They were being driven in a sedan and there was an altercation, and

you know, she got pushed around a bit and injured. Then when to go drinking on her own self with some buddies at some night clubs in Manhattan. But I saw him the first time he saw me, was that this guy's no good. He's a bad guy. He thinks too highly of himself. Look at his face, I said, one hundred years ago, John Mayer's half gay, I said, half a fag. But probably can't say that anymore, although I just did, and I'm kind of onto that now

too. The rest of the world's joined me. But I'll get to that story in a second. One I want to talk about first is I said something on the show the other day that I guess I didn't know this now I do know a lot. I'm way ahead of most people, if not ninety nine percent of people when it comes to stories and rumors and what have you. But I was never a big fan of Jim Norton, the comic.

I shouldn't say that. I've always thought he was funny, but I didn't listen to the Opie and Anthony show when it was a big hit on New York's New York Radio. I was a Howard Stern guy, so I didn't listen to Opie and Anthony. I've since speak come friendly with Anthony Komia. I've done his podcast several times, and I spoken to Opie over the last few years. But I didn't listen to that show when it was hot.

I do enjoy going back to YouTube and watching segments of Jim Norton and the great comic Patrese O'Neil, and the two of those guys together on the same episode were just it was comedy gold. The other day I mentioned is Jim Norton just gonna march around with this wife who's a transgender, this blonde woman named Nicki, who really was a man, and frankly is still a man because he still kept his bird, kept his bell and howel if you will? I'm like, is everybody okay with this? Is this a gimmick?

And a lot of my patrons wrote back on the Facebook pages, and no, there's no gimmick. Jim Norton has always spoken about him dating transvestites and hookers and what have you, and they think it was because maybe it's because he thinks he's not hands enough to find some really knockout girl or beautiful girl, so he tends to go that direction. No, I don't buy that. I think maybe he likes it in the ass. Has anybody thought of that? I mean, that's not a stretch to me, A stretches.

Well, he just can't get pretty girls to like him, so instead he goes for hookers and transvestites. No, that's not a natural thing, guys do Yeah, you want to get a hooker, you want to go to a massage parlor. I get it. You want to drain your vein, you know, every few weeks, go ahead and do it. I know plenty of old men who do it. Young guys who can't get dates do it. Even I had a friend of mine who wasn't a bad looking

dude, wasn't a fat slob. He just I could tell he didn't like women, because whenever I had a date, I'd bring this girl to a restaurant that all my buddies are at. And he used to always like, if you sit down with me and my friends Vinnie and Johnny, Bully and Frankie and Rocco and Anthony and Mario, you get to know this is my crew, This is all I hang out with. These are the guys.

And if she could sit there with all that machismo and craziness and get along with their the way they speak, the way I humor is, then she can handle me. And I found that to be great. All the girls I brought to restaurants like that with my buddies there loved it. Not I didn't do this for hours on end. You know, her and I would have a nice dinner someplace and I'd said, let's go to Ago and we'd sit down. My friends would jump at the table, shoot the shit for

an hour, then her and I would leave. But if I knew they liked her, then she was gonna be around for a while. One of my buddies I will mention his name, successful producer, but didn't really like women. He loved beautiful women, but he couldn't get them, so to speak, so instead, at the end of the night, he'd go home and go I'm gonna call I'm gonna go on Craiglist. I'm gonna go call a girl and have her come by. And I can never understand that that's

just not anything I've ever done. Just go home and call an escort so you can get laid and then go to bed. That's what some guy. So I thought, if that's what Jim Norton is that kind of guy, Okay, then he's not kind of guy, No big deal. But if he's going for transgenders, then especially at tranny who still got his bird or his bell and howel, then clearly he likes to experiment in that fashion.

And you know what, I'm not gonna put him down for that. If he likes it that way, who am I to say anything bad about the guy. Everybody's different when it comes to this sex life. The one thing you don't want to do is look through someone's window into their bedroom because you'll see a lot of stuff you probably don't want to see. But if it makes those two people happy in that room, then more power to you.

I don't put anybody down for their sexual preferences. I'm not putting down Jim Norton, but I think when people make the jump of no, he just likes hookers and transvestites more, No, he doesn't. He likes it from behind. I mean, come on, what are we kidding speaking of from behind? Is this rumor that's been circulating around for a while. Something that I said a little while ago about me always feeling John Mayer was you know, Well, let's put it this way. I think John Mayer has seen

the world from both sides. Yes, he has a string of beauties he's dated over the years, from Jennifer Love You with the Jennifer Aniston to Jessica Simpson and on and on. I mean, his list and lineup of beautiful women is endless. You got a good looking that like that who can play at the guitar like him and sing like him. Any woman's gonna want to crawl to your bedroom door, it's just the way it goes. That's that's

a killer. I mean, Jimmy Hendricks had women, and he was a junkie slob who could play this shit out of a guitar and sing and you know, yeah, he had a lineup at his bedroom door out of his hotel room for his whole life. But this whole thing about John Mayer and Andy Cohen, the big Bravo producer and Bravo hosts, being a couple,

that's the new, not new. They've been friendly for a while, but their friendship has become so strong and they've been seeing going out together so many times that people are now saying it's obvious there a couple, and when are they going to come out, or what is John Mayer gonna come out? You know, I always found my argument that John is, you know, has one foot on each side of the line a good argument to make, especially when I found out years ago he was out with Jessica Simpson one night.

And this is during the time where the gossip columnists or gossip blogger Perez Hilton was the king of all gossip columnists or gossip bloggers, and basically all he was doing was being bitchy to women. I don't know how he became popular because he was this gay guy who was bitchy to pretty girls and all he was doing was drawing cocks near their mouth. It was so rude and sophomoric and stupid, and yet he got invited everywhere. I never can understand

that. But one night she's out, Jessica Simpsons out with John Mayer, and Perez Hilton shows up and John Mayer knew that. You know, that was kind of a thorn on her side because he didn't say so many great things about her. But that night, John Mayer begins to tell Perez Hilton how much he loves male porn, watching guys get it on, and in her book, Jessica Simpsons said she was thoroughly embarrassed by hearing him say this, But then he took it a step further and stuck his tongue down Perez

Hilton's throat. Why. I don't know to be outrageous. I've wanted to be outrageous, and I've been outrageous in my life, but it never meant I stuck my tongue down a man's throat. Even if that man was being critical of my girlfriend at the time, I'd rather have punch in the head than my tongue down his throat. That's not what straight men do. So does this shock me that he's with Andy Collen a lot? No? I

mean he's one hundred percent gay. No, there's stories that there's pictures of him in Andy Collins East Hampton, beautiful home of Andy Collens's mother, is steam drying one of John Mayer's dress shirts, and he's so happy. They're out together constantly. Listen. If my friend Kevin was still alive, I would have absolutely lived with Kevin as a roommate. And there was nothing between him and I sexually, of course not. But he was such a funny

guy and a knowledgeable guy. Loved loved movies, even could talk sports, loved to talk about models, knew all the gossip in town. Because my friend Kevin was around, he used to paler around with Andy Warhol when he was in tenth grade. He was being taken away by counts in Europe on weekend getaways. I mean, Kevin was dolled out by the Warhol gang. But as a result, he was a artistic I shouldn't say as a result. But he was always an artistic guy and kid, and a smart one

trust fund kid from Connecticut. Parents always had money. He always had money to live on and survive. But he got jobs at Vogue magazine and l magazine, and he did some movies. He acted in some movies. Kevin Dornan was a great guy and a tremendous photographer, because, like Andy Wahhall, his hero, he carried around a camera everywhere he went. He died a few years ago, and I wish I could see all the photos he took of me and us and my buddies. But one thing about Kevin,

he took photos. There was always a camera around his neck. This is way before our cell phones, and I never saw those pictures. I've seen a couple, But I would have lived Kevin in a second. We would have laughed all night and all day long. I love cooking, he loved cooking. It would have been great. So I'm not ready to say that John Mayer and Andy Cohen are knocking boots. I wouldn't be surprised if they've tried it, but I don't think that that's what Andy Cohen wants. I

think Andy Collen wants a straight up gay male right now. It's like fascinating to people to see that both of them together, But that's not what any Colin really wants. Any Colin, more than anything, has been a publicity hog for a long time. He loves his name in print, He loves his face and magazines. He loves what he's done with the franchise of Real Housewives. Who wouldn't what all the money he's made from being the guy who

lets women argue and get nasty with each other. I mean, it's a hell of a show to put together, to be around women who bitch on each other, but that's been his pathway to gold. So I don't think they're together together, but I think they could easily live together in harmony for a good amount of time before John meets a woman who blows him off his seat or Andy finds a man who I shouldn't say blows him off his seat. But you get what I mean. But that's the way. Look,

life is so weird now. Life is so different right now. I don't want to say since nine to eleven because we've had so many things since then, but nine to eleven began it began people thinking differently. It changed. It didn't just turn a page in American life and in the world's life. It changed a chapter. We moved into a new chapter in our lives. And then COVID happens, and we're in a completely different chapter. And you know, you guys know, I'm not a Biden guy, and I'm not

a progressive Democrat guy at all. But now with those guys sitting in power and Trump facing criminal charges and shit, we're in a completely different realm of our world. I don't know where we are. We just keep giving money to countries we can't control. Ukraine is getting hundreds and hundreds of millions on top of billions you've already sent. I Meanwhile, guys are walking in meetings with hand grenads, blowing up rooms. We've given money to Israel, We've

give money to Palestine. All we're doing is just getting rid of our money and our own calamity here in America. And that's another chapter into my life in our lives that we have to deal with. So I think somebody, I know I'm very fined up today, but I think some of these things we're seeing, like certain relationships come to a close or relationships being born. I think are because of how much has happened in the last twenty years.

A lot of people who have to nine to eleven wanted to get married and have children. As weird as that might sound, it changed my outlook. I was single at nine to eleven and I thought what am I doing? And when Mamife and I got together and I got her pregnant six months into our relationship, I proposed to her on the spot and lasted twenty years. We have two beautiful kids. But if nine to eleven hadn't come, I

don't know. Maybe I would have lived with Kevin and had some fun for the next ten years as Selby before I was smartened up and tried to find a woman. But then I might have been too old. Who knows. But it's a different world. Look at everybody's angry and upset. Have you seen Kanye going off the else again? He doesn't stop Cardi being offset, the fights they're having. I predicted they were gonna end, like I said earlier in the show, And now you got her on video and on Twitter

or Instagram or I think Instagram she's on. Just give it to him because he's been cheating girlfriend. He's never not cheated on you. And by the way, she was cheating on him as well, but of course he's a bigger dog. But the way she speaks about him, the way Kanye speaks about him and his people, I know they've they've taken the N word and

made it endearing, but I'm sorry. You just cannot keep calling your husband the N word, and Kanye, you can't call your kids or your ex recording on his friends that word and expect things to go wildly wonderful after that. It's a horrible word, and so many black people toss it around like it's nothing. And to hear Cardi bgo banana is it's just I mean, she's lost her marbles if she ever thought Offset was at any point loyal to her. But I have it on good authority that he was having girls come

to his studio once Carti left, and he was having his fun. And I know that Carty had a guy as well, so you know, what's good for the geese is good for the gander. But I guess it got too close to home and Cardi pulled the plug, at least for now. But I think it's real. I don't think she'll be back with him. I think he embarrassed her too much. And that's where we stand right now. But I don't know, is it just me? Don't you see that people have had it? People have just had it, you know what I

mean? It's something even John Fetterman not to make this political, but John Fetterman from Pennsylvania has broken from the progressive left and doesn't want to hear anything more about the border. He sides with the right enough with the fucking border. Close it already. And that's not what these progressives on the left thought he'd be like. But now that he's come out of his whatever you want to call it, half a Cooma, whatever he was in, he's starting

to see the right way. So he's upset. Then the best story I heard all week Megan Kelly. I told you many months ago that she's going to become so much more vocal to close. So we get to election day and you saw her host a debate for News Nation a week or so ago, and I'm telling you she had the balls to step up and say Donald Trump has lost a few steps. I admire her for that, because, you know what, as much as I side with the guy, he has,

and it's natural for somebody that age, but he has. He also was much quicker and much more volatile and more vocal than most men that age. But he definitely is a bit different. But she had the balls to say it when no other journalist would say it. Then she went into the Taylor Swift territory and she has a lot of Look, it's one thing making fun of Trump, but you piss on Taylor Swift. Wow, your life's in jeopardy. But making Kelly's right, Taylor Swift is now the darling of

everybody in the world. She's a billionaire. She's done more for the economy that I don't even know what else to say. But she made a mistake, and I have to side with Megan Kelly. She attended a fundraiser Taylor Swift did that provided humanitarian relief to the people of Gaza. Now, remember, Taylor Swift was just named the Time magazine Person of the Year because her aerostour became the first tour to cross the billion dollar mark. That's not the

only reason why. But she had the nerve, I would say, or the stupidity to lend that star power to the stand up comic Raimi Yusef's which is called More Feelings Tour, and that made a pit stop at the Brooklyn Academy of Music last week last Friday, but the money from that event went

to benefit a non governmental agency called American Near East Refugee AID. Okay, Yusef was born in Queens, New York, and he's doing this tour, but it's too close to benefiting the people of Palestine, and that's not what you want to be. That's a third rail right now. I'm shocked by how many people in America, mainly Gage, mainly women, who think it's cool or somehow right to stand up for Palestine. We don't want innocent people

killed, but we want everybody in Hamas destroyed. But Megan Kelly went after Taylor Swift like nobody's ever done it, and she needs it. She said that Taylor ows Israelis and Jewish Americans an apology and that they should boycott her events until she issues some sort of apology because attending that fundraiser was wrong. She's got to be held to account for what a lot of people would think

is an absurd decision. You know, I get it. I got a girlfriend who loves Taylor Swift, and she's had me sit down and listen to her music, and I admit she's a fantastic songwriter. I like a lot of her songs. I don't walk around singing her songs. Ever, I've never hummed a Taylor Swift tune, but the songs I've been told to listen to I've liked. But again, I can't call myself a fan, but I do understand why teenage girls or women in general would like a lot of

her music. But you know, pop stars who stand up and do events like this have to understand the ramifications of this. They have no political wisdom. And Megan Kelly basically told her to shut up and sing. Okay, we all know that she's got this big romance with the Kansas City Chiefs Travis Kelcey. Some people call it bullshit. I don't call it bullshit, but

it is overly publicized. But there she is in attendance, and this is a very highly political fundraiser and it presents a very highly biased view of the Israel and Palestine war. And I think that's a major mistake she made. You know, it's not considered fun for anybody who's Israeli or anybody who sides with Israel. To see Taylor Swift do anything about the people on that side

of the world, she ought to keep her mouth shut. This is me talking now because listen, Taylor Swift has a lot of fans who are gay and female. She knows this. Does she know what Hamas does to women who are from Western culture, or what they do to transgenders, or what they do to gays and lesbians. She must know, and if she knew, she'd never go. But she's not the only idiot who lent her name. Selena Gomez, who now goes to the opening of a fucking envelope.

She was there, Anya Taylor, Joy, Zoe Kravitz, Cara Delvine, who was a junkie and a half a few months ago. Now she's shown up everywhere, all cleaned up, Taylor Swift. People have to understand this. You moms and dads at home who buy the albums. What's the album called nineteen eighty seven? Is that the big one they hear she was born? I think that's the one. You parents have to understand this. Taylor Swift supports the March for a Lives movement and gun control reform. She's a

vocal critic of white supremacy, which I haven't seen. I see a lot of black on black crime and black on white crime, I don't really see white supremacy. She was there for the George Floyd protest. In other words, she liked that junkie and really thought that shouldn't have happened to him. What happened, even though he was chewing and eating his fentanyl and had methnfetamine

in his body and was going to die of a heart attack. Anyhow, She donated to Black Lives Matter, which is a big sham from the word go, which I said it was. And she called for the removal of monuments Confederate monuments in Tennessee, and she advocated for June teenth to become a national holiday. And worst of all, in my book, she endorsed Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. And she openly criticizes Donald Trump. You want to

criticize Trump, there's a lot you can say bad about him. I get it, But you can't tell me this country's in better shape than it was four or five, six, seven years ago. Bullshit. You want to say she's an incredible songwriter, I agree. She's a good singer, yes, a good performer absolutely, but not very smart about politics or economics or anything outside of this world. She lives in the Hollywood world of illusionary fandom,

if you will. She's great about singing about love and heartbreak and teenage rivalries and all that shit. That's her element. But stay away from political fundraisers of any type, especially those that have to do with the people in the Gaza strip. You cannot have your name attached to anything that's anywhere near Palestine and worse Hummas. Okay, that's it. Taelst's gonna get knocked around for this, and she should. She's lived a charmed life so far.

But she needs to get knocked around for this, making Kelly's right. So in this case, I support her anger. I even support Cardib's anger. I have a lot more to say on Jonathan Major's and his girlfriend, of the whole legal situation. I have inside information about that. I will talk more about what I know about cardib an offset and look, I'm breaking I'm breaking stories left and right. So I know it's Christmas. You guys are preoccupied.
