If you’re looking for a Jeffrey Dahmer-inspired costume for Halloween, one place you need not look is eBay. They’ve taken steps to remove any clothing that pays homage to Dahmer. An eBay spokesperson said the company has policies that prohibit listings that glorify hate, violence, and criminal activities. If there was any question about that, the policy is posted right there on their site and states, “There’s no space for items closely associated with or benefiting violent felons, their acts, or crime scenes within the past 100 years.”

“Terrifier 2” had a small release in the US earlier this month, but word of mouth has led to more screenings being announced across the country. We keep hearing that people are puking and passing out during the movie, but just like the marketing team for “Smile” planted people behind home plate at MLB games to sit there and smile creepy, some people believe producers of “Terrifier 2” hired people who pretended to get sick or faint to create more buzz. But the movie’s director wants us all to know that these stories are real. Damien Leone tweeted, “To everyone saying that reports of people fainting and puking during screenings of Terrifier 2 is a marketing ploy, I swear on the success of the film it is NOT. These reports are 100 percent legit. I wish we were smart enough to think of that! But then again we didn’t need to.” And in the responses, people were saying they had personally witnessed people passing out so they believe it’s real.

After spending 91 weeks on the chart, “Heat Waves” by Glass Animals is now Billboard’s longest charting Hot 100 song of all time! In its 59th week of release, “Heat Waves” finally reached No. 1 in March and stayed there for 5 weeks. At that time, “Heat Waves” broke the record for the steadiest climb to No. 1. Now all these months later, the song has broken the record for spending the longest time on the Hot 100. Since August 2021, “Blinding Lights” by The Weeknd held that honor with 90 weeks on the Hot 100. Glass Animals’ lead singer Dave Bayley told Billboard, “Wow, all I can say is wow. Many of you know when I wrote this song, I was writing about missing someone I loved very dearly. Never in my wildest dreams did I think that it would lead to so much love and connection across the globe.”

Britney Spears is back on Instagram, but it’s her Twitter account that had jaws dropping yesterday. Britney laid down on her side on the bed facing the camera, fully naked except for one hand covering her breast. She captioned it, “I have a premiere for a movie this week ‘THE LEGISLATIVE ACT OF MY (HOO-HA)!!!!’” Britney did have a lot of people calling her out for embarrassing her sons once again, but she also had her defenders. One posted in the comments, “The girls that get it, get it… the ones who don’t, don’t … to all the people in the comments and say they feel sorry for her kids do you say that about every other celebrities children that’s a woman that dresses sexy and models for whatever? Where’s that same energy?’ Another just questioned, “People wanna criticize her pictures for her being provocative after the end of her conservatorship, but why we not talking about all these pictures being the quality of a motorola razor?”

After the former nanny revealed what Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis called “false and scurrilous” claims about the demise of their relationship, all we wanted to know was, What the heck is in her special dressing that she made for Harry Styles in the kitchen she shared with Jason?? In a cheeky move, Olivia posted the recipe on her Instagram Stories last night. Actually, she posted a page from Nora Ephron’s 1983 novel Heartburn, which is based on Nora’s own divorce. On this particular page, the main character describes a night spent with her husband. Nora wrote, “I came home and started dinner. I made a bouillabaisse, and crème brulée, and in between there was a salad. I taught Mark to make the vinaigrette. Mix 2 tablespoons Grey Poupon mustard with 2 tablespoons good red wine vinegar. Then, whisking constantly with a fork, slowly add 6 tablespoons olive oil, until the vinaigrette is thick and creamy; this makes a very strong vinaigrette that’s perfect for salad greens like arugula and watercress and endive. We got into bed and Mark put his arms around me. ‘That was a lovely evening,” he said. He fell asleep.’” Maybe Olivia wasn’t just letting us in on the recipe for her special dressing….maybe she was letting us know that she had been doing all this stuff for Jason and he wasn’t appreciating her anymore so she went out and found a hot young pop star who would!
