Fame. Uh, 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 Ben's are here with fame as a bitch. This is your free show, your free show. I think it's gonna land December one, twenty twenty three. How about that? One two, one, two two three, beautiful date, beautiful show. Thank you, free birds. A bunch of you have come off your perch, A bunch of you have left the top branches of your trees
and flow into Patreon. I think fifty of you in the last few weeks. Happy about that, Naturally, I want more, and I'm sure more of you will come the more you hear. I just I was looking at a picture of Lenny Kravitz before and about two weeks ago, I mentioned a lot of people in the business that I've happened to know and become friends with, at least not just meet, but know them and talk to them.
And I was writing them down because I wanted to look at a list of all these fluential people, whether it's Nicholson or Evans or Mariah Carey or God, Prince, so many of them, but Lenny Kravitz was one of those guys that I had a relationship with because of my friendship with my best buddy Rocco, who owned the restaurant Boom in New York City back in the nineties. Lenny was always there. Prince would come at night and play play music
with the with the house band. It would show up on Sunday nights. It was great. But Lenny Kravitz back then, I never knew how short he was. When I first met him, he was like five to five and he smelled like a circus elephant back then. I have to be honest. With the dreadlocks and the leather with no undershirt on. God knows how long he wears, the leather pants and the leather shirts and the Swede shirts, I don't know, but it's petruly, it's old hair, it's bo
it's weed, it's all that. But it equals circus elephant. And I've forgotten that he was once with really with Nicole Kidman. I want to say they were almost engaged, but they were engaged. I can look it up and I'm too lazy. But Lenny Kravitz and Nicole kidmen, if you're the cold kidman, I mean her husband. Now, Keith Urban is too short for her. What is she doing with Lenny Kravitz? She must have put him on apple box. I mean they say Keith Urban's five foot ten.
I don't believe that at all, because Nicole towers up. She's only five, she's five eleve. Not only she's five eleven, he's five ten. She's got at least five inches on him. And don't tell me that's all heels. It's not. Because most women don't want to be that much taller or towering over their their husband. It looks odd. So if she looks that weird with the Urban, I can only imagine what she looked like with Lenny. But yeah, and on top of that, I mean the smell.
It just Nicole looks like such a refined, beautiful proper. I know there's a dirty, nasty side to her. You haven't see the movie called The paper Boy. Oh my God, listen to me, The paper Boy. Go find that and watch it. If you're a Nicole Kidmin fan, if you find her at all sexy, go look. All I'll tell you is she's with John Custack. He's locked up. He's in a chair. I think he's even handcuffed and in some capacity. This is so sexy. It doesn't sound like it, but it is. She basically gives him head
even though she's not near him. She's sitting across from him, but she's mimicking what it would feel like with her tongue and her mouth. And he's sitting there unable to touch himself because he's got cuffs on. And he finishes. Very powerful scene, very powerful scene, but yeah, heides and put Prince is another shorty. Prince is also the five to six and Under club.
I remember being with him many times. He wore big heels all the time, but still at all when he's just chilling out with his big purple robe sitting down for TEA little guy. Little guy, big crazy, powerful voice, but little guy. Matter of fact, when he made the video for the song kiss, my ex girlfriend Kara is in that video. She's the one dancing around him at the end, and she's the one eventually that
gives him that last kiss, the last word of the song. He's on an apple box for that song because she's like five to nine and she was towering over him. So next time you see the video. Remember Prince is standing on an apple box. But that show biz. Sometimes the old stars were an old actress might have been tall than a leading man and they dig
out a trench for her to walk in next him. Or if you were like Alan Land or one of those old time gangster actor types, you walked on apple boxes on certain shops so you could be bigger on camera for your leading lady and for audiences. So many tricks to the trade. What can I tell you? I saw a very sad picture today, Lynn Spears doing her shopping at the Dollar General store. Now this is weird because I've heard
claims that she sold Brittaney's clothes and some belongings to stay afloat financially. It's amazing to think she even has to stay afloat financially with all the money that family robbed from Brittany, millions upon millions of dollars. Even the little sister did her number on Brittany. But yeah, she was spotted wielding a shopping cart filled with items out of a discount store in Kentwood, Louisiana, her
hometown. Lots being made about the finances for Lynn Spears these days. She's strongly denied that she's been selling Britney's clothes, but people close to that situation say she's definitely gotten rid of Brittany's hats, shoes. They're at a kent Wood consignment shop. They wouldn't just show up there without Lynn bringing them or selling them. But it's worth noting that she's at Dollar General. But she's also got a designor purse in the store's bright yellow shopping cart and then eventually
unloads all those goods into a white Mercedes. I don't know, but The Daily Mail had published an article from information from a family source saying that Lynn spent the last five years selling off Brittany's shit, wardrobe and appearances on TV, appearance of an award show, stuff like that. She's vehemently denying all
that. On social media, posted a picture with some of Brittany. I mean, she posted a picture with Brittany's hat and a shirt and something else that Brittany autographed that she's like, I would never sell my daughter's things. Take your fat straight, Daily Mail. Okay, that's not even an outfit. It's a hat and a shirt. You think Brittany's warn about I don't know. Sixty five hundred different things since we've seen her, since she had
the Mickey mouse hears on. That would be crushing. If the Mickey Mouse hears ended up at a consignment shop, that would be, well, you gotta buy that. If you see that, you grab it. You gotta grab it. I mean, anybody in Louisiana near Kentwood go to the consignment shops, get get a piece of Brittany that'll be worth something one day. Sucks to think that, but it will be whether she I don't know why she thinks that. We think the people will think that's beneath her because nothing
this family did to Britney is easy to understand. It's all the stuff in nightmares and now you're seeing it for your own eyes. You got Brittany alone in her mansion. I mean this help who live there as well, But she's in a mansion alone, twirling around on her foyer and skippy clothes outfits she probably wore in two thousand and seven, which is when the world changed
for her for the worse. And I think because of PTSD and whatever else she's got going on in her head, you know, I think she wears those clothes that she fells most she felt most comfortable in before the world became unbearable, you know. And when she's not twirling around the foyer, she's rolling on the beach and getting sand in her vagina or squeezing her tits together in better in the shower. Even though her sons don't want to see it
anymore, doesn't bother Britney. And by the way, the last video she hosted of her wearing a tiny bikini bottom I think it was, and like a bikini top that was very boxy. I don't I don't even know what you call this outfit. It was some sort of bikini top that was like rectangular. But in the video she sped the video up a little bit, so her movements that looked a little disjointed and kind of scary, to tell
you the truth. And then you add in the clicking of her heels when she's wearing and dancing on top of the stone floor, it was a little eerie. But then it got even worse when she flipped off her shoes and began dancing barefoot. And this hand motion she does, I don't know. This whole hand dancing is weird to me. Obviously, she's talented to know what to do with her hands. She's done it so many times. It's muscle memory. But it's like a little belly dancing, a little hip hop,
a little popping. I don't even know. But when she's dancing barefoot, you can hear in the silence, labored breathing, her labored breathing. To be honest, it's a little sexual and scary at the same time. Not that I find her sexy, but I know plenty of weirdos do. But this is a woman. I don't care how horny you are. Men, I don't care if she invited over for a quick fuck and talk to
you in a baby voice. If you have a head on your shoulders, you want to keep your life drama free, Okay, it's not worth it. You know. You gotta get there. You gotta assess the situation and her emotions. Then just walk away, you have to. I don't care how good she might be in bed or wild. I heard she is, by the way. By the way, I heard it, Donald Trump told me very wild in bed. Brittany is very wild in bed. But you can't have that in your life. Trust me, I'm doing you a big
favor. Don't find crazy somewhere else. Back in the day. I went on a date with a girl. I had a drink while I was waiting for her cab to arrive from Santa Monica. I'm in Hollywood. Then I had my second margarita while she and I waited for a table. She had one drink, one margarita. Okay, I don't know what she showed up having done before she met me. I don't. I barely knew the girl met her like three nights before that and set up a date. She had
one drink. We get to our table with dinner's fine. We finished dinner and we're walking outside to my car so I could take her to my apartment. And suddenly she's a little bit wobbly, and I'm like, oh, you're okay there, and she's giggling. You know. Oh, I think my heel hit a hole in the street. I'll be fine. There's no hole back there, I looked. So we get to my place. I
had a very little cottage in Hollywood. This was the place that very famous, pretty famous because a bunch of old movie stars lived there back in the day when it was developed. It was close to the Warner Brothers lot and a lot of these actors would take horses to the lot. No cars, take a horse. It was called normal It is called Normandy Towers. You
could look it up. Charlie Chaplin designed it and lived there. Rodolph Valentino, Thelma Ritter, Douglas Fairbanks Junior lived there, and of course, as fate would have it, Marilyn Monroe did as well. In fact, it was her first place in la And wouldn't you know it, that was my apartment in nineteen ninety seven, in ninety eight, early part of ninety eight, and I iced to love telling girls you want to come to my house and lie down and look up the same bedroom ceiling Malon Moroe. Did I
know it sounds corny, but it worked. But this place was so small, and I recall hearing the chick upstairs, this girl named Jennifer Tierney, who was the great niece of the crazy movie star Jean Tierney. Beautiful but crazy, and Jennifer looked a lot like her great aunt. She has a
scandal We did her on my show. She had a scandalous life. I think she got shock treatment actually, But at the time, this girl, Jennifer was working as a designer for Britney Spears tour, and I used to be able to hear her having sex with her small black boyfriend at the time. I could hear the girl tih my I left Elizabeth, who taught ice skating, was trying to get work as an actress. She's having sex with
various guys. I could even hear the stripper who lived across the courtyard from me, the girl the strip in New York doing whippets and having fun with her big biker boyfriend. It was very tough some nights to be alone and hear that kind of shit, so I just leave the house and have to find I couldn't take it. So this date of mind flash forward was so loud. I began to get worried what people might think was happening. Eventually, she goes to the bathroom to puke and she locks the door. Wouldn't
you know what she passes out. I couldn't get it a wake up to open the door. This was on for an hour. It's one o'clock in the morning now, and in four and a half hours I'm needed on this set of Pammanas's TV show VIP. And on top of that, I had to drive this nut back home. Eventually she wakes up and comes out and wants to sleep over. Now that's when you know crazy can't stay over. That's out. So I say no, I'm driving you home. I got an early start. You know, I'm not even gonna go to bed.
I gotta go to work soon. I get on the highway and mind you send the Monica thirty minutes thirty five minutes away. But this nut didn't know or couldn't remember where she lived, and I'm going to you fucking's this is not funny, and she's giggling, uncontrollably giggling. I just moved in like a week ago, I don't remember, and I'm getting I don't like this. I'm pissed off down because now I gotta be at work in three hours.
So it's obvious I'm not gonna sleep at all. So, after twenty minutes of the charade of showing the streets and neighborhoods that looked familiar, that looked familiar, no giggle, giggle, I go to a gas station. I give her five bucks to buy me a gatorade and get something for yourself. And while she's in there, I just peel out and go back to the highway and go home. Sorry, I can't. Don't hate me, but there was that was a nightmare and it would have ended up even worse
if I stayed. So that's why you gotta get away from crazy. But that's why I say stay away from Britney Spears. It's not worth all the drama. But getting back to her mother shopping at Dollar General. Can I say something years as if? I never do say something years ago? Even when I was married to my first wife in the eighties, he used to love to go to the ninety nine cents store on Long Island. Waiting to car, I said, I'm not going in there. People are gonna see
me. I'm not gonna be seen shopping at ninety nine cents. Oh, I thought, like, who the hell I thought I was? She goes this good stuff. I know I'm not. Then I got married a second time, and this one used to love to pursue peruse the ninety nine cent store in burd Bank, and I felt the same way, I'm not going in. One day I go in there just for the hell of it, and I see they got they have fruit and vegetables at this particular ninety nine
cent store, and I'm seeing beautiful strawberries. They usually run five bucks nine nine cents. I see carrots, celery, onions, garlic, great for my soups, all clost to the buck. Milk was a dollar, Turkey, cold cuts were a dollar, Eggs were a buck, and it was since then if I want to save money, why pay thirty forty bucks to the store when I can go to ninety nine cents and leave for seven dollars for the same shit. I love a good deal, and maybe Lynn Spears
does too, is what I'm trying to say. But let's face it, don't We also see this family eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for dinner. I mean, you know, the Spirits family has always had trailer in their park. I don't think that's gonna leave any of them soon. This next story gets me angry. Guys. There's a picture of Prince William and Kate Middleton, all acting very fine, acting in high spirits, doing their royal
duties the other day. This is in the midst of people being named, two people being named, two family members being named in a book who allegedly questioned Prince Archie's skin color while making was pregnant, and you got William and Kate smiling for photos. Crown Princess Victoria's there, Prince Daniel of Sweden is there. They're all at Windsor Castle in England doing their royal family bullshit. But earlier this week the identity of two royals who had quote unquote concerns concerns
about Archie's skin tone was accidentally. I don't think it's an accident. It really gave this book a lot of press. Accidentally revealed in copies in Dutch of this royal reporter Ohmid Scobie and this new Bookie has about the state of
the monarchy after Queen Elizabeth's death back in twenty twenty two. And in the final US and UK editions of this book called Endgame Inside the Royal Family and Monarchy Fight for Survival, Scoby doesn't name the family members who made the comments prior to the little Prince being born, and there are news outlets that have obtained the Dutch version. Initially, they redacted the two names in their coverage of this mistake, but then Piers Morgan, who I love, said you
know what, fuck it, I'm gonna say the names. He goes Frankly, if Dutch people wandering into a bookshop can pick it up and see the names, then you, the British people who actually pay for the British royal family, you're entitled to know. Two. And he went ahead and made the announcement, but he also said he doubts he doesn't believe that the Princess Kate and King Charles made the racist comments. That's what the book alleges.
Nationally, the Palace is not gonna say anything about these allegations. But Scoby the author is blaming a translation Eraror in Holland where his biography was removed from stores. What is the big fucking deal Megan Markle's biracial? We all know that. Okay. First there was the big claim that a senior member of the royal family had expressed concerns about her sun skinned color. And then she went on the Oprah Winfrey interview and made this announcement. They asked, how
dark your baby's gonna be? That's what Oprah said. She was clutching her pearls and had the other hand up her ass. She couldn't believe it potentially and what that would mean or look like? Yeah, it's a simple question. Family's asked all the time. And then, of course, you know Megan, that conversation never going to share. But at a time it was awkward. Harry said, I was a bit shocked. Okay, go shit in your big old church hat. Bolt. Yes, look, Megan Markle
is extremely jealous of Kate. Okay, and this just makes Megan look even worse than she always looks. Not the future Queen of England, Catherine, She's fine. You know. I wonder how much money Harry and Megan paid their PR team to sabotage Kate. I don't think she did this, and if she did, I don't find it a big deal. I can see the Queen and Charles saying it because they're of an older generation. I don't think Kate would say that. But the level of Markle's obsession with Kate,
it's dangerous and it's concerning. We all know that Markle helped with this tabloid of a book, and to me, it shows that she basically hates women. If you can think about the history she's had of bullying young women at Kensington Palace, this is more evidence that she's like a misogynist. If you will, and I think it's time that five or six released the dossier they
have honor. Maybe it could be accidentally leaked, perhaps because I'm hearing the first step is to remove Harry and Megan from the royal website and remove Harry as Counselor of State. That's what I hear is being discussed. But honestly, you know this claim was made by a very thirsty Megan Mark, again, very jealous of Kate's popularity. The world loves Kate. I'm not buying it just because it's in a book. That doesn't make it so. I
don't believe for a second that Kate's racist at all. Look come on, I raised a mixed son. I kind of know what it's like for people that. I mean, he was twelve when I got there. But you know, it is something you might wonder. I'm wonder what the baby looks like. It's natural you even say that when both parents are white and both parents are black, will be more's father or as mother, And especially if there's a mixed race angle to it, what's the big deal? I wonder
what the baby's skinner look like. It's so it's such a non story. It's a normal question. I don't think anybody asked that question with bad intentions. Again, it's just Megan trying to be petty and play victim. Even Harry was taken aback with the he he took that story back saying that the media said said it, Megan didn't say it. No, Megan, Megan said it on Oprah. Sorry. She she craves drama, she lives for it, and she just create it for notoriety. But this time I think
she's crossed the line, and Harry with her by staying silent. It drives me crazy. You have some balls, bro Sit it down before she goes on national TV. Sit it down before these things blow up. Have a talk with your wife. Man. Because Megan worked with Omen Scobi on the first book and in court had to admit what they said was false. So this goes beyond the law. It's slanderous and if you want to ask me, I think, my guest, the courts are going to be very busy,
you know, with determining what to do. I mean, the book itself, it's gonna end up in a fire pit. Like most books I see, Jaded Pinkin's book is already fifty percent off at Target plus I heard a lot of people who bought the book, as well as Harry's book Spare, which sold really well, have been leaving those books behind in hotels, at airports, actually by the garbage up their curbside. That's what people are
doing. I read an article about that not too long ago, that that's what people are doing with Spare and Jaded Pinkins's book, and I don't know. Look, I would never treat a book like that. I know what it takes to write a book, so I have a little more respect for that people have written them. But I typically keep all the books I've ever read. I have at least five in the books in storage. I mean, the boxes are so heavy, forget about it. The ones I didn't
like so much, I could never throw away. I know how much sweat goes into that. I'd bring them to a bookstore and donate them. But a lot of society feels differently about books by celebrities these days. We've had it with the narcissism. It's why I kind of lean away from finishing my third book, which is about all my LA stories, all my celebrity driven and wild stories. Private conversation with Robert Evans the Vestist Alone, Tupac Prince,
you name it, Mickey Rock, all those stories. But I'm concerned about whether people are really still reading books, are just scrolling on their phones, you know what I mean. I'm actually reading a book now. I keep free books in my suitcase. I keep the Big Alcoholics Anonymous Book and The Shitter, and I'm getting through that. But that's like homework for me. The other night, though, the Wi Fi was out at the hotel and the Spectrum cable TV was on the fritz. Here on the premises,
nothing to do, I had to crack open a book. And I'm reading this book called The Last Thing He Told Me by Laura Davids. I like it a lot, and I'd forgotten how much I just love to sit home and read a book. I don't know. I know I'm gonna write mine. I just got to get the right mood. I mean, plenty of chapters have done. I just got to get really into it and just go.
But and again, with respect to Harry and Megan and Kate, the American writer Napoleon Hill once said, every adversity, every heartache, always carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit. So to me, the benefit here is that Harry and me again end up looking like jealous, ungrateful, coll dependent shit. It's and Catherine just gets on with things in life. She's posted her picture, she's smiling, she's doing her royal duties.
She's busy. See, Harry and Meghan aren't busy, right, and nobody cares about what they have to say, Not that anyone ever did, but now it's abundantly clear just how pathetic they truly are. Again, I want to say, I've seen about fifty of you guys, you free birds, have flown over to my Patreon show. I'm very happy about that. Those who still haven't gone there, go to patreon dot com. Slash fame
is a bitch. That's patreon dot com slash fames a bitch. Next week we'll be shocked with stories about Disney having to change course and stay away from movies with messages and just remember how to fucking entertain us again. God bless you not that now that head honcho Bob Iger saw what a huge flop the Marvels ended up being, he's admitted that the mouse House has to change course.
That's good news, and I'll have inside stuff. No one else does, and inside information on how Matt Lower is living these days for a journalism colleague of mine and Buddy so to speak, his friends of Matt and sat down him. And there's some information I got about Matt to talk to you
about. If a comeback is maybe a foot I hope there is. The guy didn't kill anybody christ I'll also be talking about Bradley Cooper having to gently let Gigi Hadid off the hook as he gets closer to making his first Oscar run, well a first run, but it looks like he's got a good shot at finally winning the Oscar. He should have won an Oscar before this. But this movie about him playing the Maestro Lennon Bernstein, that's gonna get a lot of attention. It already is, but he stars it and he
directs it. And listen, frankly speaking, you can't have a big nose jee genius like Lennon Bernstein link up with a pro Palestinian, low rent model like Jiji. Can we imagine how many sick Ohs will glue themselves to the floor at the Dolbe theaterre on Oscar night. And let me just say this
about those idiots who glue themselves to things. Let's just toss some common sense into the filure here, okay, into this bonfire of bullshit that has all these assholes carrying flags for Palestine, or even the idiots who are protesting inside Chick fil A or you name it, wherever else there is protesting going on or it's happening. All these shit stars are gluing themselves to things. How about we just let them stay there, don't rescue them, let them be,
don't save them, don't arrest them. Just let them sit there and have to rip off the skins of their ass or his skins on their hands in orderly get free and go slink back home to live renfree in mommy and Daddy's basement. Hey, but AJ, when you're in Chicago, you're living it's just his basement. So there's all right. Let me tell you something.
