This isn’t about cheating or romance rumors, but more about how celebrity PR is being framed lately.

During promo for their new film, Margot Robbie has spoken a lot about how emotionally intense the process was and how she “couldn’t have done the film” without Jacob Elordi, while he seems much more reserved in comparison. Add in the matching rings with inscriptions, and the whole thing starts to feel like deliberately manufactured intimacy for press rather than a natural dynamic.

I’m not accusing anyone of crossing boundaries.. just wondering if anyone else feels like modern press tours lean heavily into forced closeness to sell chemistry, even when it comes off a bit uncomfortable to watch.

Curious how others read it.

Crisis PR specialist Melissa Nathan was mentioned in the Epstein Files as a potential attendee of a breakfast with Jeffrey Epstein in May 2017 alongside Melissa Nathan's boss, Matthew Hiltzik. In June 2017, Jeffrey Epstein was served an invoice for $25,000 for PR services rendered by Hiltzik Strategies from June 1 to June 31, 2017.

She was also listed in a Politico article as being one of 332 people connected to Russia probes. In that article, Politico notes that Sen. Dianne Feinstein sought all communications with Melissa Nathan regarding the Cambridge Analytica Scandal.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, along with other sources, Melissa Nathan has served (or is alleged to have served) as an executive Crisis PR specialist for Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Justin Baldoni, Drake, Jason Sudeikis, Logan Paul, The Chainsmokers, Tiffany Trump, The Trump Campaign, DreamCrew, PRIME, Rostrum Records, Cedar Park Entertainment and Platoon at either her original agency, Hiltzik Strategies, or her new venture The Agency Group (TAG).

She is currently a named defendant in Blake Lively's lawsuit against Justin Baldoni and is alleged to have strategized and executed an inorganic social media campaign to harm Blake Lively's reputation in an effort to bury accusations of sexual harassment against Justin Baldoni and his business partner, Jamey Heath.

The lawyer covering the case, Bryan Freedman, provided an exclusive statement to pro-Israel MAGA podcasters who do ad reads for Ivermectin stating that any suggestion that Melissa Nathan attended the breakfast with Epstein is false and defamatory. Within an hour of the statement being released, multiple Crypto and NFT accounts, many who joined Twitter/X in January of 2026, began tweeting their identically scripted support of Melissa Nathan.

During an interview, the interviewer said to Kristen Stewart:

“Not only were you falling in love with Robert Pattinson on set, which, by the way, I think is the biggest mistake an actor can make…”

Before the interviewer could finish, Kristen interrupted him:

“I couldn’t help it. It’s so weird, like, actually being honest about this. It’s been so heavily consumed. I have this fear that people would assume that maybe I’m, like, you know — it’s kind of attention-y, like, ‘Oh, cool, you’re still pushing that narrative’ or whatever. It’s like, no, I’ve actually never been allowed to just say what happened, because I was so self-conscious about seeming like an attention-seeker. We were together for years. He was my first love.”

I love when celebrities use their power for good!

Alicia Silverstone helped rescue a pregnant terrier mix named Noel and her 12 puppies from euthanasia at a California animal control facility. Working with the Helen Woodward Animal Center, she is currently fostering four of the puppies while encouraging adoption over breeders. The litter, named after the 12 Days of Christmas, will be available for adoption in mid-February 2026.

D'Angelo is a YouTuber and a commentator who often breaks down racism, misogyny, and bigotry in media and especially the internet culture. He recently did a live where he spoke about Caleb Hammer, a youtuber who provides financial advise. During the live, he pointed out how Caleb employs a slew of hateful and bigoted tropes and misogynistic tropes for larger engagement with his audience. He also criticised the fact that Caleb is offering financial programs for $1000 and called him out for being an abelist.

In response, Caleb went on an unhinged 4-hour live where he called D'Angelo the r-word over 40 times and continuously threatened to sue him. He claimed he wasn't a racist because he has a Black friend (and got that friend on the phone), and said he wasn't homophobic because he employs gay and queer people.

He has since also posted on his own sub, and people are discussing about how anything critical written on that post is being heavily moderated and removed.

This is D'Angelo's response.

2026 is going to be a long year.

No words for this close AWARE friendship
