EVERY WEEKDAY MORNING, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the best of the day’s celebrity dirt from the top to the very bottom.
Vogue Williams has been chatting about a new set of documentaries that she’s filming for RTÉ – and has opened up about the ~inspiration~ behind one of them.
Speaking to The Irish Mirror today, Vogue explained what the three features will be on:
There’s one on sugar daddies, another on having kids on your own and the third is going to be on anxiety and mental health.
She discovered the concept of ‘sugar daddies’ after she herself was contacted with an offer:
The sugar daddies one came about because I was offered €20,000 to go on a date and I soon realised that a lot of people do that.
Supposedly a lot of college students to it to pay their way which I didn’t know before doing research into it.
Vogue didn’t accept the offer, but it sparked an interest in the topic worth exploring for RTÉ:
I didn’t go on the date – I screengrabbed it on my phone and sent it to loads of my mates, but it’s not something I would do
There’s a whole other world there, it is something that people do and I find it fascinating. I can’t wait to dive into it and find out how it works.
Sounds like it could be an interesting watch. (Irish Mirror)
The story of Ben Affleck’s new relationship with SNL producer Lindsay Shookus is still rumbling on – with reports emerging that Jennifer Garner confronted Shookus about the affair.
Sources have told People Magazine - who seem to be all over this story – that Garner was in New York in 2015 and that’s when the alleged incident took place:
Garner was on a work trip to New York City when she approached Shookus about the fling. “Lindsay refused to back down or quit the affair,” says a source.
Garner sought out Shookus’s ex-husband Kevin Miller too, according to said source:
After appearing on an episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers, where Miller is now a supervising producer, Garner sought him out for a conversation.
The first source says she showed him text messages between Affleck and Shookus, adding, “she had proof.” (Miller and Shookus were already split at the time.)
More on this “exclusive” over on People now, with lots more to come no doubt.
Donald Trump’s son is dominating the US news right now, after Trump Jr admitted to meeting with a Russian lawyer during the 2016 presidential campaign for information on Hillary Clinton.
Eric Trump has been defending his brother on Twitter – and Chrissy Teigen has taken him to task through the medium of memes.
Eric has often, in a very mature and considered way, been compared to a vampire:
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
Following this tweet yesterday, Chrissy had a Vampire-themed comeback for him:
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
No reply yet from Eric.
