Thursday Thrifties - Frugal, Economical, Sparing, Penny-wise Gossipy Bullet Points



LOL!  That'll be me now after purchasing the new wheels.  I'll be hitting up the wholesale club to catch free samples.  ;-)

A few very short, concise points of interest.  Not going to elaborate in huge time lines, masterposts or social media screenshots.  These are items just from the past week (or two) that have caught our eyes for one reason or another.  Let's get going.


Peter Sarsgaard in a shirt that looks like it could have been borrowed from Jake's closet back in the day, forget the tweet text, the shirt is what caught our eye:

Out late in the wee hours of the morning with a buddy.  "Uncooperative".  "Refusing to get out".   Vince's "wife" had to come pick him up.

"Vince Vaughn got engaged to a Canadian realtor named Kyla Weber in 2009, according to People.  It's unclear how long they had been dating at the time." - From the Daily Fail

"quietly wed in a low-key ceremony near the actor's Chicago home" 
"about 65 people attended a hush-hush ceremony at Lake Forest Academy just outside the Windy City" - The Globe and Mail

Lake Forest Academy ?????  Incidents like this one might not be so surprising after all.

Was Meghan Markle's skin tone altered/manipulated in this photo?  I'm thinking it was.

23 year old singer Troye Sivan is on the cover of Billboard's first Pride issue.  A couple of quotes from the interview, courtesy of Just Jared:


On being an embodiment of gay culture emerging into the mainstream:I do feel a little bit like a guinea pig sometimes. That the world or the press or whatever is sort of using me and a bunch of other young people right now as education points, [like] we’re teaching the world about all of these different things.”



On his upcoming song about having a relationship with an older man at the age of 17:I’m worried because I don’t want to ever come across that I’m condoning that or anything like it. But I felt, greater than all of those worries, a responsibility to tell that true story — of the curious gay kid who puts himself in some kind of shady situation to find a connection, like all of us crave.”
 
 
I can't imagine but Troye must be a huge inspiration to the young LGBTQ community in our world.

Reminiscing:

One has to ask why some celebrities love to reminisce and re-live emotionally painful, public moments in their lives.  

A headline from today:

"Billy Bob Thornton Reveals the 'Only Reason' He's Not Still Married to Angelina Jolie" - Just Jared

and from yesterday:

"Sophia Bush Didn't Want to Marry Chad Michael Murray, Reveals the Reason She Did" - Just Jared

and then today:

"Sophia Bush Tells Jimmy Fallon She's Looking for Husband on Subway" - Just Jared

Look at this glowing, stunning photo of Miles McMillan and his boyfriend (hubs???) Zachary Quinto from the Tony Awards earlier in the week:


 
They're radiant, aren't they?


*******

And a different kind of pose for a photo shoot.  From the "Mitam" photoshoot - Mr. Harry Styles:


I like this one!

And we hope Jake and Austin are enjoying their summer!  ;-)

Of course, the last comment is all in fun. I think the #SummerOfJake is consisting of some filming, but which movie it is remains to be seen. There’s no way he’s been off since early last fall with only one movie under his belt. Him and Austin need money coming in with that big brood, but for whatever reason, he doesn’t want it known. Which is fine - live privately. But don’t peddle fake pictures of being in NYC when you’re really not. Stop lying.

Anyway, speaking of waiting to see what something is all about. It’s obvious this week that professional beard Sophia Bush and her team are campaigning for something. Dredging up all of the Chad Michael Murray stuff, dragging his “wife” into the social media swarm - that’s not for nothing. But it’s impossible to tell right now what it’s all about.

Hope everyone is having a nice Friday. We are on the tail end of this work day and I’m pumped.

The Brady Bunch and the Gyllenichols clan fit perfectly together. And, that whole Sophia Bush hetero tour is curious. Looking for a husband on the subway? And, her stroll down memory lane regarding Chad Michael Murray smells of closeted desperation. Sounds to me like she's trying to remind people that she likes men, hence the "Hot Dudes" reference and her "confession" that she even thinks about them on the subway. Oh, and there's nothing suspicious about her 5-month marriage early in her career. You see she felt "obligated" to marry Chad so he would get to work on time. Oh, c'mon, people. It's so obvious she's using the #MeToo to provide an alternative narrative for her "dating" history. And, I hardly doubt that Bush is the kind of gal who uses the subway when she's in NY. If she did, she's probably looking at the Hot Dudettes instead.
