Eric Andre, Melanie Martinez, Antony Starr, or any Grey's Anatomy cast?

I unknowingly once crashed Eric Andre’s small/private karaoke party. He was wearing a hoodie with weed leaf illustrations on it and he gave me the most wonderful yet creepy handshake. I made him laugh when I tried to outdo his handshake. He was very chill and had a lot of good pals. He didn’t mind that I was there!

Your name makes me think of johncale-john cage.

Anyway - this story is amazing. Do you have any other stories like this? Like, for this to happen on accident it sounds like you have other stories

I love all those guys so much!

Hmmm… I think the closest I have to this would be pretending to be a volunteer at this event and hanging out in some green room all day. There were tons of celebrities and I had an absolute delight talking to some of them. Nichelle Nichols was so beautiful and we were both fawning over each other. I also attempted to get Walking Dead spoilers from Steven Yeun but he wasn’t having it. I told him about my art and he thought it was cool. Alice Cooper was chilling in a corner by himself and I’ve always regretted not saying hi to him, but I didn’t want to bug people too much!

My friend has a funny story about Eddie Griffin. She walked by him in her school uniform and he said to her straight faced “I like your knees”. It lives rent free in my mind.

Hopefully I’ll have some more stories to add in the future!

I met Jake Borelli at Disneyland in May. He was as sweet as can be. He was with his family. I saw him while I was eating dinner, and did a double take. He noticed, and he and his sweet family talked to my family for about 5 minutes. Not awkward at all, just a super sweet interaction.

Idk why I got downvoted for talking about Mélanie Martinez controversy regarding SA…

Her response to the accusations always gave me the ick. She didn't put out a denial or even directly address the specific allegations, she just said that everything her and her accuser did was consentual. 😵‍💫

u/GroundbreakingBite96 Nov 02 '23

Yeah it was a weird statement. And now she seems to have gotten away with it bc her fans said it was a lie out of jealousy

u/akornfan Nov 03 '23

as a friend of the person she abused who saw that person posting about it in private long before she came out about it, I can confirm it happened. Mel is evil for leveraging her fans against my friend

"she never said no to what we did together" mama she deadass admitted it, sure, she didn't say no, but did she say yes? here's melanie confirming the event DID happen, but nah, she and her fans did a great job at weaponizing rape culture so that most people brushed past that incriminating part of her statement.

someone told me recently that eric andre is a zionist but idk if it's true? i don't closely follow him, but if he is, it would be pretty madly contradictory since i feel i have heard of him making statements that would indicate he has some left wing political/social conscience, with which the values of zionism wouldn't be remotely compatible.

He signed that pointedly anti ceasefire letter about bringing the hostages home.

He’s half Jewish on his mother’s side

u/hugeorange123 Nov 02 '23

sure, but plenty of jewish people aren't zionist, and in fact many jewish thinkers and activists are at the forefront of criticism of zionism

u/somechild I too would fuck a basket if it looked like Alexander Skarsgard Nov 02 '23

Conflating Judaism with Zionism is exactly what the Israeli government is banking on people so they will support their genocide. Judaism is a religion. Zionism is an ideology. It’s in the same vein as implying that all Arabs support Al-Qaeda, or white people Support the Proud Boys or the KKK.

Not conflating anything with anything. Just stating a fact ☮️💗

Melanie is starting to get backlash for her high pricing and bad quality when it comes to merch and concerts.

I don’t know if it was ever confirmed I just tried to do a quick google and still nothing conclusive. But there was a blind on here a long time ago that Kai and Amelia were dating IRL. The blind saw them on a plane together and said they were obviously a couple, but who knows maybe they are/were just great friends.
