Dr. Dre, Snoop, Kendrick, Mary J. Blige & Eminem did a great Halftime Show, right?

The sound quality was somewhat poor and the staging was somewhat blah, but the Super Bowl Halftime Show this year was one of the best ones I’ve ever seen? It felt so organic, like all of the artists knew each other, liked each other and coordinated well with each other. That’s rarely the case, as the NFL tends to throw wildly different artists together for the Halftime Show as some kind of stunt. For this year’s show, we got Dr. Dre and Snoop, Eminem, 50 Cent, Mary J. Blige and Kendrick Lamar. Kendrick, Snoop and Dre are all from LA/Compton/Inglewood. 50 Cent and Eminem are close to Dre, who produced the show. And Mary… I think they just wanted Mary, and she killed it. She was one of the best parts, singing a medley of “Family Affair” and “No More Drama.” (The NFL is being tricky with the embed, so if you can’t see this video, go here to YouTube).

There was a lot of conversation on Twitter about how this was the most “Gen X” Halftime Show ever. I did have a moment where I was like… wow, Mary is singing stuff from a 2001 album. Eminem did “Lose Yourself,” the Oscar-winning song from the 2002 film 8 Mile. Snoop is 50 years old! So yeah… it was pretty Gen X! Kendrick kind of evened it out a bit – he’s a Millennial, but Gen Xers love him, so IDK.

You know who didn’t love this Halftime Show? Red states and Republicans! The amount of complaining because the Halftime show was full of “rappers” and (gasp) Black folks was really something. There were conservative commentators full-on weeping that Eminem was the only white artist (and Em was arguably the most openly liberal artist on the show). Not only that, the NFL tried to tell all of these Halftime artists that they could not make any reference to Colin Kaepernick or social justice or kneeling, and then EMINEM was the one who kneeled on stage.

That halftime show was so Black red states will have legislation to ban it by tomorrow morning.

18 Celebrities You Didn’t Know Were Convicted Felons

Who knew Christian Slater was a convicted felon? And what exactly did 50 Cent to to get himself in trouble with the law?

From felony drug charges, weapons charges, and even assault, here’s a surprising list of celebrities who are also convicted felons.

1. Christian Slater

It’s hard to believe, but Christian Slater got into a LOT of trouble back in the day, including drunk driving, trying to board a plan with a concealed weapon in his luggage, and assaulting a police officer.

2. Stephen Fry

Stephen Fry actually once spent three months in prison for credit card fraud. Who knew? He was only 17 at the time, but he made the bad decision of going on a spending spree with a family friend’s card. Whoops.

3. 50 Cent

50 Cent got into major trouble when he tried to sell drugs to an undercover police officer. That was one of two times he was charged with felony drug possession.

4. Yasmin Bleeth

It’s true. The Baywatch babe was charged with felony drug possession in 2001. She was put on probation and sentenced to 100 hours of community service.

5. Mark Wahlberg

Also known as “Marky Mark,” Mark Wahlberg was put in prison on charges of assault and attempted murder when he was younger. That all seems hard to believe now, doesn’t it?

6. Chris Brown

Okay, so maybe you did know about this one, but we still needed to include it. Chris Brown was convicted of felony assault, but managed to get a plea deal to keep himself out of prison.

Star: Jennifer Aniston thinks Chelsea Handler is a gauche name-dropper

In yesterday’s Chelsea Handler post – the one about Chelsea single white female-ing Jennifer Aniston’s hair (and life!) – some commenters suggested a hidden history between Jennifer and Chelsea, a conspiracy theory that I hadn’t heard. The theory: that Chelsea had hooked up with Justin Theroux in some way and that perhaps Chelsea and Jennifer’s relationship was ruined because of it, and maybe that’s why Jen and Justin are acting like they’re broken up too. Just to be clear: no one has any evidence that any of that happened. At all. It’s just an interesting theory. But Star Magazine has a different theory! According to unnamed “Aniston pals,” Jennifer has begun to realize that Chelsea Handler is a gauche starf—ker. *clutches pearls*

Onetime besties Jennifer Aniston and Chelsea Handler are on the outs, thanks to the E! talk show host’s “aggressive attempts” to upgrade her friendships!

“Jen called Chelsea a suck-up for begging for an invite to Sandra Bullock’s Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony and hanging all over her,” hisses an Aniston pal. “Chelsea doesn’t even know Sandra!”

Jen’s also rolling her eyes over Chelsea’s gauche behavior. “Chelsea name-drops everyone she hangs out with, whether it’s Charlize Theron, Reese Witherspoon, Katie Couric or 50 Cent,” says the insider, “Jen’s definitely pulled back from Chelsea.”

[From Star Magazine, print edition]

Here’s my question: Jennifer is just realizing this NOW? Chelsea has always been on the Uptradey Warpath (she’s like Pippa Middleton only… no, there’s no difference). Chelsea has always traded favors and favorable coverage for off-camera “friendships” and access. She’s always been gauche. It says more that being “gauche” about uptrading girlfriends is more of a dealbreaker for Aniston than, say, all of that awful crap Chelsea has said about Angelina Jolie and the Jolie-Pitt children.
