Meghan McCain is expecting… Rosario Dawson will join “The Mandalorian”… Lizzo has the worst case of strep throat… Ellen DeGeneres accused of being ‘mean’… and Taylor Swift was telling the truth all along

“The View” co-host Meghan McCain has announced that she’s expecting a baby. She and the other ladies on the show are dong the show remotely from their homes to protect themselves from getting the Coronavirus. Meghan’s good news comes about 8 months after she revealed she suffered a miscarriage. She is married to conservative writer Ben Domenech.

If all goes well, “The Mandalorian” will return for its second season on Disney+ this fall. “Variety” just announced that Rosario Dawson will play Anakin Skywalker’s Jedi palawan apprentice, Ahsoka Tano. Up to this point, that character has only been featured in the animated TV series “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” and “Star Wars: Rebels.”

The other day, Lizzo posted a picture of herself wearing a face mask. She was immediately attacked for wasting a face mask when there’s a worldwide shortage for medical professionals and those infected with coronavirus. Lizzo deleted the mask picture, but then posted a picture of the inside of her throat. She said she had the worst case of strep throat in her life, adding, “It’s nobody’s business but I’d prefer y’all not criticize me for wearing a face mask and doing what I was supposed to do to protect the people in my home. Please check yourself before you become an internet bully because you’re bored. Get your facts straight. The world needs less trolls and more compassion.” Then, she deleted the picture of her throat.

A comedian named Kevin T. Porter says Ellen DeGeneres is “notoriously one of the meanest people alive.” In fact, he tweeted that he would donate $2 to the LA food bank for every mean story people tweet about their own interactions with Ellen. From people claiming to have worked with her, one tweeted, “She has a ‘sensitive nose’ so everyone must chew gum from a bowl outside her office before talking to her and if she thinks you smell that day you have to go home and shower.” Another posted, “… her rider was 50 items long and one was specific vegan cauliflower puffs that are rarely sold so i had to drive to 15 different grocery stores to find it and she didn’t even touch them.” Another person tweeted that Ellen had a personal assistant fired after leading her to set the “long way.” So far, Kevin has donated $600 to the LA food bank.

So it turns out Taylor Swift was telling the truth all along. We don’t know who to credit/blame for leaking the ENTIRE 2016 phone call between Taylor and Kanye West, but it’s reignited the whole scandal over the lyrics to his song “Famous.” When Kim Kardashian posted a clip from that phone call on her Snap chat, we heard Taylor laugh about a lyric Kanye wanted to include that said Taylor owed him sex for making her even more famous after he interrupted her VMA acceptance speech. What Kim left out was the part where Taylor thought it was going to be way worse, like he was going to call her the “B” word. And guess what Kanye went and did…..It wasn’t the line about her owing him sex. It was when he rapped “I made that B famous” that she sent her over the edge. In response to the renewed outrage of Taylor being dissed, Kim liked a tweet that read, “The video showed nothing new. We all knew that. I’m so confused right now.” And then Taylor liked a post on Tumblr that read, “Taylor told the truth moodboard.” She also like another post that read, “How I sleep at night knowing we were right all this time and now we have the receipts to prove it.” And she liked one more, “WHO WAS TELLING THE TRUTH THE ENTIRE TIME???”
