We’re tracking the conservative culture clash with woke Hollywood hypocrites to keep you up to date on who’s winning and who we hate. 

 Here’s what happened today:

007

“No Time to Die” star Daniel Craig, who will complete his mission portraying James Bond for the fifth and final time with the release of the film, doesn’t believe that the mantle of 007 should be taken up by a woman when producers search for a replacement. 

After rumors arose that co-star Lashana Lynch’s character would inherit the title at the end of the film, she commented that the movie industry is giving the audience what they want and “with Bond, it could be a man or woman.” 

Craig was quick to shoot down the idea in a separate interview. “The answer to that is very simple,” the actor said. “There should simply be better parts for women and actors of colour. Why should a woman play James Bond when there should be a part just as good as James Bond, but for a woman?” 

He did note that women “should be offered roles of this calibre.” 

Cliff Diving

Tom Cruise startled English hikers when he landed a helicopter on a walking trail and proceeded to parachute off of a cliff while he was reportedly practicing a stunt. 

“I certainly wasn’t expecting to bump into Tom Cruise during my hike,” said one of the hikers. “But he was really friendly and offered to have his picture taken. He looked like he was having a great time but was also clearly involved in some serious work for the filming.”

“By the time he parachuted away there was a little crowd gathered but Tom didn’t show any sign of nerves. He obviously loves the thrill of being involved in his own stunts,” they continued.

 

Anti-Vaxx

Supermodel Doutzen Kroes announced she would not get vaccinated for COVID-19 on Instagram, and fellow model Gisele Bundchen supports her choice.

“I will not be forced to take the shot. I will not be forced to prove my health to participate in society. I will not accept exclusion of people based on their medical status,” Kroes wrote. On the platform. “Freedom of speech is a right worth fighting for but we can only solve this united in peace and love!” 

After Kroes’ post received plenty of negative attention, Bundchen, who is NFL quarterback Tom Brady’s wife, defended her in a reply.

“I can’t believe the hate being directed at her because she expressed her feelings,” wrote Bundchen. “It saddens me to see all the judgment and the lack of empathy in so many people’s hearts. Hate is not the answer.”

“I invite you to silence your mind and go deep within to find love in your heart so we can all unite in peace and create harmony in our lives and in our world,” she continued. “We need it more than ever.”

RIP 

“Sex and the City” star Willie Garson, who played Carrie Bradshaw’s gay BFF in the series died at the age of 57 on Tuesday. 

“Willie Garson was in life, as on screen, a devoted friend and a bright light for everyone in his universe,” an HBO spokesman commented. “He created one of the most beloved characters from the HBO pantheon and was a member of our family for nearly twenty-five years. We are deeply saddened to learn of his passing and extend our sincere condolences to his family and loved ones.”

Garson went on to play Neal Caffrey’s thieving sidekick Mozzie on USA’s “White Collar.” The show’s star Matt Boomer wrote a touching tribute on Instagram. 

“The last thing you did when we said goodbye was pull down your mask (I hate covid), smile, and wink at me,” Boomer posted. “I know that it wasn’t reflective of the pain you were going through, but it was indicative of everything you were and are to me: some one who lifted me up, who made me better, and who always, always made me smile.” 

Labelle co-founder Sarah Dash, who performed the 1974 hit “Lady Marmalade” with music group members Patti Labelle and Nona Hendryx, has died at the age of 76.

“Sarah Dash was an awesomely talented, beautiful and loving soul who blessed my life and the lives of so many others in more ways than I can say,” Labelle wrote on Monday. “Rest in power my dear sister.” 

No cause of death has been released for Garson or Dash at this time.  

 

Lawsuit

Rapper Jay-Z filed a lawsuit through his Team Roc “social justice” initiative against the Kansas City government for allegedly covering up misconduct by local police officers.

“It is an open secret that KCKPD has a history of misconduct. For decades, members of the KCKPD abused their positions of power and authority to solicit and coerce fabricated witness statements and testimony, plant evidence, procure sexual favors, withhold exculpatory evidence, and conceal their own misconduct and ignore the misconduct of others,” the filing states.

“These abuses were enabled by the KCKPD’s failure to adequately train and supervise its officers, particularly those in the Criminal Investigations Division. And, all the while, the blue veil of silence within the KCKPD has allowed these bad actors to avoid any accountability and has prevented the KCKPD’s horrific story of widespread corruption from being told,” the document accuses. 

 

Protest

More than 500 professional athletes, including U.S. women’s soccer star Megan Rapinoe, demanded the Supreme Court rule against a Mississippi law that would ban abortions after 15 weeks when the panel hears the case in December. 

“[We] believe that, like themselves, the next generation of women athletes must be guaranteed bodily integrity and decisional autonomy in order to fully and equally participate in sports,” the group of Olympic, professional, and college female athletes wrote.

They argued that without legal abortions female participation in sports would be “severely impaired” and that the procedure is a major factor in the “enormous success” of women’s sports.  

The amicus brief claims that if the “State compelled women athletes to carry pregnancies to term and give birth, it could derail women’s athletic careers, academic futures, and economic livelihoods at a large scale.”

Rapinoe commented that she was honored to “help champion not only our constitutional rights, but also those of future generations of athletes,” in a statement

“Physically, we push ourselves to the absolute limit, so to have forces within this country trying to deny us control over our own bodies is infuriating and un-American and will be met with fierce resistance,” she concluded. 

Fighting Commentary

UFC bantamweight fighter Sean O’Malley, who has a 14-1 record in his division, said the fight between Alana McLaughlin, the second openly male-to-female transgender MMA competitor, and female athlete Celine Provost was “not okay.” 

“I don’t think that’s okay,” O’Malley said of the former U.S. Army Special Forces defeating Provost with a rear naked choke in the second round. “I just don’t think that’s okay … In just competing in sports. I mean, especially mixed martial arts.”

“It’s like she had testosterone for, who knows, 20 to 30 years of her life and now, I’m a girl,” O’Malley continued. “You could tell that’s a dude. A jacked girl, I mean. Look at her arms.”
