Maybe I'm missing something? Seemed like whoopi was making it about her and how his situation effected her (whoopi) and that she (whoopi) didn't want to be burdened by the mental image of B in this state. Seemed like a selfish and shitty perspective, but maybe there's something I'm not getting Honestly, this subject is making me very emotional and I should probably step away. I'm sorry. That wasn't my intention. I didn't mean to offend.

I just can't verbalize what I'm feeling right now. I'm disgusted by her husband and the girlfriend. There's so many layers to how fucked up that situation is.

I agree there is a lot going on here that is fucked up, especially if the girlfriend is treating b poorly. That's unacceptable and totally fucked.

That looks really dark and loud for a one year old's party. The IG video. Just like the womb!

I agree with Whoopi I'm right here with you and Whoopi. What he is doing is not right. I don't care that he can "consent" for her- there's a certain amount of respect that should be given as someone declines. He's not giving it, and it comes across as him using the videos etc as attention seeking behavior.

I appreciated the comments on the podcast, Keep It! about the B. Smith situation. They felt B was being very exploited (using her social media, going on a media blitz to talk about all of this) with no proof that she actually said she wanted it all aired (we only have the Hs word on that). I can certainly sympathize that being a caregiver in this situation must be very hard, but moving the new girlfriend in is OTT imo.

The female married celebrity offspring of a celebrity who really has to use that last name more and more to get any kind of job got trapped in a corner. A reporter asked our offspring her thoughts on Chris Brown's history of violence towards women. The offspring expressed her condemnation. Then the reporter told her all of the times her husband publicly supported Chris Brown and the offspring said there were lots of positives about Chris Brown too.

He's not giving it, and it comes across as him using the videos etc as attention seeking behavior. To me, in sickness and in health means just that. Being a caregiver is hard, but I can’t even begin to imagine if my grandfather had decided he needed to date while my grandmother was sick. My aunt was only 62 when she passed away from Alzheimer’s. Heaven help the person who chastised any of them.

Adding this only because it gave me lots of nostalgia and I miss when these outfits were "in". I think I had one in almost every color, just not name brand 😂 2007 was second year of college though, so I wore them super often http://instagram.com/p/Btv_71jnOq-

When they're posting throw back photos, they're most likely healing from new surgery?

Whoopi shaming him for sharing video is the worst to me. It’s like she’s suggesting we sweep the whole thing under the rug. It’s shitty that people with Alzheimer’s’ condition deteriorates so quickly, but pretending it doesn’t happen isn’t going to bring any awareness to the importance and difficulty of their care or the need for better treatment. /insomnia thoughts Whoopi saying she didn't need to see B like that so he shouldn't have allowed B to be filmed was very WTF. It's not about what Whoopi wants to see. What a shitty perspective. I think Whoopi is coming from the perspective of an older black woman. Black people don't normally put all their shit out there like that.
B. Smith in her life never did an interview or anything where she was not up to her own par. It's like Martha Stewart being photographed bald headed and not with her full faculties. She may have ok'd it but I don't know this. The person I saw portrayed when she was at her best kept her personal life private and was very classy in all her depictions. So...he looks shady AF for putting this shit out there now and stepping into the spotlight.

I had read the girlfriend didn't live in the home full time and that B's step daughter was primary care giver for one part of the day and she did have someone else coming in to care for her.
I don't feel he needed to do interviews or pics. He could date, fine. There's enough money for them to get a room or for our ships to barely be passing.
I find all his social media shit just as disrespectful as the woman being in the home too.

That makes sense. There is a lot more to consider that I didn't really think about before I judged Whoopi's judging.

I read an article maybe a week ago about the B. Smith situation and what struck me as really fucked up was his motivation. Because his adult daughter, the one who cares for B. much of the time and who's described her as a mother figure, she doesn't seem to take issue with him having the girlfriend per se. But she seemed VERY uncomfortable with him making the situation public. It came across like he was flaunting it as a means to express that he doesn't care what anyone thinks - like one big FU to his detractors. There didn't seem to be any claims of trying to demystify dementia, or anything that could be spun as in any way altruistic or like it was anyone's decision except his own. That made me cringe even though the article painted the girlfriend and the whole living situation in as a respectful/positive light as possible. He still came across as willing to put his wife's business in the street just to prove he could. That's just selfish beyond belief and gross.

This former back in the day A- list mostly television actress who is arguably more famous now, despite not really acting at all any longer is begging for a defamation suit being filed against her which would bankrupt her just in legal fees. She always blames someone else other than herself. If what she says is true, then go to court and change things. She won't because she knows everything she did.

Have we talked about the Ellen Page/ Chris Pratt stuff here? I can’t remember. Basically she has been calling him out for the Hillsong anti LGBTQ stuff and he posted this on his Instastories about it today. 😔

Richard Gere (69) and his wife Alejandra Silva (35) have welcomed a baby boy together. Richard is already the proud father to Homer James Jigme, 18, who he shares with ex-wife Carey Lowell. Alejandra, meanwhile, also has a six-year-old son Albert with ex-husband Govind Friedland.

Many eyerolls to Chris Pratt about his church being accepting of his divorce. You're a movie star and you go to a church where the founder says "Instagram built our church."
Like they're going to scarlet letter him?
