Blind Item #15
"Aren't you like 50? Why are you here?"
Question asked in the desert this weekend to this former A- list singer in a manufactured group turned reality judge mainstay, who really had no answer and just walked away and shortly thereafter out of the party.

Mel B
ReplyDeleteAnd OUCH!
Delete+1
ReplyDeleteReality is a bitch.
ReplyDeletelol but really. It's a good question.
ReplyDeleteWhen you're old, you're supposed to bring the booze and drugs. Then the kids will think you're super-cool.
ReplyDelete@Cail Corishev- "When you're old, you're supposed to bring the booze and drugs. Then the kids will think you're super-cool."
ReplyDeleteFor about 10 seconds. Then they want you to GTFO you pathetic old POS.
+1 @ chase. Ain't that the truth!
DeleteReminds me of Gob in arrested development S4.
DeleteGetaway get away
Was she covered in lizard blood?
ReplyDeleteThat’s rude and hurtful. Mel b may be trying hard to get down with the kids but she’s a spice girl and respect is due, but not to posh, not keen on her.
ReplyDeleteThese millennials are a shady dumb bunch. When I was younger I liiiiived to hang out with the older crowd. They were extremely generous, they had the best drugs, more money than I had and access to clubs my underage ass couldn't get into without them.
ReplyDeleteHanging out with older people is the best way to potentially avoid repeating the mistakes you watch them make.
Delete@Geeljire
DeleteAin’t that the truth! The older crowd has the best stories. I was always grateful not to feature in them.
Millennials are a rude, self-absorbed bunch. I'd much rather hang out with someone older and wiser than their bratty asses.
ReplyDeleteAs a millennial, fuck hanging out with millennials. They're annoying, immature followers who can't hold their liquor and have terrible taste in music. I, on the other hand, listen to music other than EDM and drink/ do drugs like a goddamn lady. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a horrible snot that person is. Karma's a bitch, she needs to watch out. She (I am assuming it was a woman, maybe not) She sounds like a horrible, awful person to be around. I would have left the party too, who would want to have that kind of toxic energy around. Life is way too short.
ReplyDeleteSeriously the college age kids these days need a fucking slap i the face that they never received but they should have as children.
ReplyDeleteNo need to be rude. I particularly don't like Mel B, but there is just no need for that, why say anything at all? That's the problem, these assholes think everyone needs to hear their stupid opinion...... oh wait.... what am i doing here LOL
but seriously there was no need for that
Apparently she felt threatened ... by a fifty year old. Sad!
ReplyDeleteYou can keep your exclusive millennial social gatherings. I'm not down with the kombucha martinis or farm-to-table heroin that today's "yutes" are probably into anyway.
ReplyDeleteHahahaha! Farm to table heroin!!! I live in VT part time and this descriptive rings true!
DeleteAs if Coachella is a cool place for anyone of any age. Poor 18-35 year olds. They have no idea they're not cool.
ReplyDeleteWeird. I've seen Cage the Elephant and the Pixies, and there were people of all ages there.
ReplyDeleteThis falls into the "someone wish they said this but in reality chickened out and sent it in as a blind" category.
ReplyDeleteI can hear the millennial voice exactly: Aren't youuuu....? Liiiike....? Fifty.....?
ReplyDeleteHard pass.
On the Shania Twain blind, absolutely everyone in the comments were tearing her down for being 50 and enjoying herself and having a great time at Coachella, saying she was desperate for being there and how pathetic she is, now here is a blind of people being rude to Mel B at Coachella because of her age, and people are like go live life to the full! My head hurts from the hypocrisy ;)
ReplyDeleteThis is great commentary on the general attitude of CDAN on any day.
DeleteWhen I was younger I loved kicking it with older people.
ReplyDeleteAs others stated they had the booze, the drugs, usually liked good music, had apartments, cars and honestly life lived that we could learn from.
Stupid kids.
@Gauloise - i just thought it was fucking random of Shania to be hanging at Caoachella with Nicki MInaj and her crew, absolutely yes. Where has she been?
ReplyDeleteIf that's not fucking random, what is?? LOL!
Her mistake, she forgot to bring coke.
ReplyDelete@americanpanda It is def a random friendship, and laughing at that is understandable : ) but a lot of people were specifically saying she is too old to be there and calling her desperate and pathetic, not for being around Minaj, but strictly for her age.
ReplyDelete@americanpanda I probably shouldnt have said "absolutely everyone" but a lot of people :)
ReplyDeleteRude little fuckwit, whoever said it - they may have a point, but there's no need to be so cunty (depending on the context).
ReplyDeleteNow who they said it to is a different matter, I know it's meant to be Mel B, but usually her response would be to headbutt the arsewipe back into the womb.
whoever said it likely wont make it to 50 which is the sad part
ReplyDeleteis there a reason why it is forbidden to say "coachella" and everyone has to say "in the desert"?
ReplyDeleteThis was probably said by some Instagram celebrity in a "VIP" area, because of course, it's about the music and the musicians who are that age, and not about the next selfie.
ReplyDeleteWell.....I'll be 50 in July.... guess I'll be going now
ReplyDelete@Todd
DeleteYes. Out to the nearest pasture with you. Apparently.
@Todd
DeleteI’ll be 50 next week, so I’ll go ahead and check into a nursing home. Let me know when you arrive-we can have a hot milk and cookies date and maybe a wheelchair race.
americanpanda AMEN!
ReplyDeletesounds like time for me to throw a party near the coach and invite any age as long as you're to cool for school. sorry, kewl. i'll invite the Mills, why not, they'll be the only ones i charge $100 at the door.
ReplyDeleteYes millenials are so rude and annoying. And the pixies are like 60. Personally, using a porta potty and sweating in the desert is not my cup of tea. Love going to concerts and have never experienced such rudeness ..even in Los Angeles.

ReplyDeleteMy God people, this 'millennial' thing again. Are we still ignoring Gen-Z exists? Nearly two decades into the millennium and we're still on this generation as the 'youth of today', c'mon. In reality, this generation is almost raising 'today's youth' themselves (adolescents). And actually, since Mel B was born in 1975 (hardly aged 50), she's maybe five years removed from the oldest 'millennials' herself (and she had a very much millennial following in her day). This term and and its related ones are like a joke that got out of hand - they have been around for a very long time, but only recently have become inescapable. (Fun fact: they were just meant to be marketing categories).
ReplyDeleteAdd what is the deal with this Coachella festival being 'unsuitable' for anyone old enough to have full brain development? It's just a rock music event is it not? Pretty sure we're LONG past the point where rock music is associated more strictly with youth like back in Woodstock (after all there is no rock n roll/youth rebellion culture to speak of any longer - seriously. That sh**'s over.).
ReplyDeleteYes @MontanaMarriott! I looked up to older people and thought they were cool when I was that age. I hear agism wih the millennials and it will just make growing older harder on their egos.
ReplyDeleteI hope the person who said that ages every bit as beautifully as Donatella Versace.
ReplyDeleteWhy can't people of all ages enjoy the music?
ReplyDeletethe 80s were awesome. us boomers used up all the fun in the world.
ReplyDeletethe world was our oyster, now it's their ashtray. enjoy!
I was at a boomer party this weekend, one couple had just returned from Scotland, was getting loaded on the single malt rotgut they brought back.
their 'photos' from the journey consisted of frames of their insipid faces obscuring the background historic landmarks.
ignorance is bliss, freedom is slavery, war is peace...
Gen-X were never nearly as cunty as Millennials.
ReplyDelete@kiki
DeleteBeing that cunty takes energy. We Xers are famously too apathetic to muster enough.
I'm not a fan of Mel B or her former group but whoever said this was just plain rude.
ReplyDeleteThis is Nicole Scherzinger
ReplyDeleteShit, that's just rude. If the older celeb (assuming it's Mel) was there enjoying herself, not hurting anyone then what's the problem?
ReplyDeleteThe problem is, they have no respect for those who paved the way for them. It's the ingrained sense of entitlement that irks me.
ReplyDeleteIt's like Lady Gaga refusing to concede Madonna had any infuence on her, or her current existence.
It is a cunty attitude, that's new. Gen-X never had that.
Give credit where credit is due, little bastards. Spice Girls always gave a shout out to women who influenced them and made the path easier.
well Millennials and Boomers can agree on one thing: No one is worse than fucking Generation X. From Erik Prince to Brett Ratner to Billy Corgan, let's give it up for all the irony-poisoned bros in their late 40s / 50s who turned America into a shitty myopia in their own disaffected image. Salut, or whatever?
ReplyDelete@rachelstargirlrox
ReplyDelete..."like a goddamn lady!!!"
LMFAO that's gold!! :)
So *tolerant and *accepting they are....
ReplyDeleteOf course it's also sort of true.
I would be showing that little shit what fifty was.
