Cynthia Erivo ‘Annoyed’ by Rude Question About How She Wipes

Neil MockfordCynthia Erivo told Armchair Expert’s Dax Shepard she was “annoyed” that he’d been so “bold” as to ask her how she wipes in the bathroom with her nails so long. During Erivo’s recent appearance on the podcast, Shepard asked the Wicked star the self-described “inappropriate” question, which prompted her pushback, even though she ultimately answered. “No one’s afraid to ask it. Everybody asks that question,” she replied, before explaining “nobody uses just their fingers to wipe their backside. You use tissue” and “you wipe.” Shepard was unwilling to drop it, however, asking follow-up questions about how she positions the toilet paper on her fingers. When she answered that she simply uses the “pads of her fingers,” Shepard replied, “Then you’re just feeling the little tickle of the nails on the crack of your butt sometimes?” When Erivo then told the host she was “annoyed” by the implication that she might not “smell great,” Shepard assured her, “No one thinks that.”Read it at New York PostRead more at The Daily Beast.

An Italian village is hoping to attract Americans upset over Donald Trump’s re-election by offering houses for one euro (94 U.S. cents), CNN reported Tuesday.

The town of Ollolai, located in the mountains of Sardinia, first started the scheme in 2018, but only 10 homes have been bought so far. Ollolai’s mayor, Francesco Columbu, told CNN the town created a website advertising the houses specifically to lure Americans. “Are you worn out by global politics? Looking to embrace a more balanced lifestyle while securing new opportunities?” the website reads.

Columbu said, “of course, we can’t specifically mention the name of one U.S. president who just got elected, but we all know that he’s the one from whom many Americans want to get away from now and leave the country.

” He said the town hall has recently received 38,000 requests for information on the houses, mainly from the United States. The town offers three different packages for possible expats: free temporary accommodation for digital nomads, the one euro homes, and ready-to-live homes for $105,000. Columbu said that while they can’t exclude any specific nationalities, they are hoping Americans in particular will revitalize the town, which currently has just over a thousand residents.

MSNBC’s Morning Joe turned off comments on their social media platforms and stopped posting clips of the show, following backlash from hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski’s announcement that they met with Donald Tru.
