Nov. 6: Celebrity Dish

We are coming up on 10:30. That means it's time for Little Celebrity Dish. We're here with media personality and attorney, Jay Carter. Yes. Hi, everybody. I feel like it's been forever since I've seen you. I know. I know. You're a mommy now. So, it's been some time. So, yes, it's good to see you. Good to see you as well. Anything new you want to share with the people? Yes. So, as you guys know, I have the Entertainment Esquire. So, we are back in full season. Of course, they're... There's so much going on, but there's the weekly podcast. You can listen to me on the go. You can also catch my show on YouTube. And so we break down, yeah, your favorite celebrity legal story. Like some stories we're getting ready to get into right now. So that's a great segue. So, yeah, check me out, the Entertainment Esquire Weekly. Be sure to do that. It's a little messy in the entertainment world. We're going to start with one pretty serious story, though. Things are not looking so fun for funny man Russell Brand, who is waking up behind bars this morning after being denied bail. He was convicted of rape and sexual assault by a U.K. court yesterday. He was acquitted of two other rape charges and attempted indecent assault. He is being sentenced on Monday and could face between six to nine years in prison. Wow. Have you been following the story? Yes, yes. So disturbing. Yes, so what he was found guilty of covers four cases. Three of them... It included him just groping people, so it was just, like, touching. But the fourth one was really disturbing. It was an actual sexual assault that was claimed, an actual rape that was claimed. And even though he's in custody and now this case is over and he's waiting to be sentenced in a couple of days, they're now too new. Wow. Yeah. So it's like this is actually not even over for him and I actually looked it up. Obviously I'm not a lawyer in the UK or London but I looked it up. He could, his sentencing could be anywhere from a year to life in prison. Yeah. Like that's how serious, I'm sorry 10 years to life in prison. So that's basically the range that they could choose from so yeah and it's not over for him. There are two new fresh allegations on the heels of this so yeah he was actually found Four of the seven, three were dismissed, and out of the four, like I said, one actually included an actual rape. And one includes a minor, too, as well, those allegations. Yeah, so we will be following closely the additional allegations, but at this point, it looks like he's just done. I mean, at this point, he'll probably already be in jail when they... If they decide to proceed on these new charges that are on his heels. The judge prepped him. To my understanding, it's going to happen on Monday. And it's happening really fast. And she or he or she said, the judge, be prepared. to have the book thrown at you. But what this does say, if there's any positivity that can come out of this, if you are a victim of a sexual assault or of any kind, it's never too late to come forward. You definitely should tell your story. And we have a lot of laws now in this country. So before, there was actually a lot of statute of limitations. So that's why they wouldn't, right? They wouldn't come forward. They would do what you would see. You would see a lot of civil cases, you know, Cassie with Diddy. There were a lot of civil cases because at one point, you couldn't after certain period of time, but at least here in the United States, I can't speak for the UK, because the United States, most states now have refreshed laws on their books that says, you know what, even if it's been 20 years or something like that, if you still feel like you have enough evidence to support what happened to you, we'll listen, and they'll potentially bring it forward. All right, we'll keep you guys posted on this. Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rasheed Rice has officially filed for bankruptcy, facing more than $3 million in debt while still playing in the NFL. According to Court records first reported by TNZ. The 26-year-old filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy this week in Texas, listing over $3.4 million in liabilities against just... $670,000 in assets. A massive portion of that debt stems from civil lawsuits tied to his 2024 Dallas car crash. Records reveal Rice has less than $14,000 across his bank accounts today and even listed his $160,000 Super Bowl ring as collateral for his attorney. This is all despite earning a base salary of more than $1.5 million for the Chiefs this season. Wow. Yikes. Yeah, not a bankruptcy lawyer, but it's interesting that... Because at first I was like, what has he been spending his money on, right? And where's your financial advisor making that kind of money? But then when I looked at it, two of like the $3 million he owes is literally from a car accident lawsuit against him. So the bulk of it is actually because he was sued because of an accident. And so he owes whoever the victim's in that car accident, he owes them that money. And so, yeah, it's unfortunate that that's the bulk of his debt. A lot of times when you go into bankruptcy, it allows you to actually keep your assets and you can get on like a payment plan. So a lot of times people are like, oh, you're filing for bankruptcy. But actually, it's a way to protect what you have. And I'm sure his lawyer is using that strategy. And to your point, Makia, he really needs a financial advisor now. If he did not have one in the past, somebody is going to come knocking on that door to help him out, hopefully. Hopefully, yeah. Goodness. Well, Kris Jenner is celebrating another year of life with her mans. By her side, making it extra special. You know I'm extra. 45-year-old Corey Gamble is posting a special message to his sweetheart who turned 71 years old yesterday. He wrote, quote, Happiest birthday to the Holy Grail. Love you forever. Keep being great. You're the greatest mother. Lovey and honey to all your kids. And I am just blessed to have you in my life, little wife. Little, pardon me. This comes after months of speculation on their relationship status. Oh, that's great. That's sweet. Showing some love to Chris. Well, people are speculating. Are they actually married? Because, you know. But you know what? I mean, it wouldn't be that difficult. You have to have a marriage license to be at least legally married. So, you know, TMZ, get on your job. Go see if there's a certificate filed somewhere. It's been so long. I kind of lost track. When did they start? It's been at least eight to ten years. Yeah, at least a decade. Yeah, it's been almost a decade. So, yeah, it doesn't look like, I mean, if I was him, I wouldn't be going to women's And thank you. Yep. I mean, at a certain point, two people just come together, they're like, listen, I love you, you love me, let's just be a happy family. A little Barney reference there. There we go. I mean, and they don't want to, you know, bring in the legality, like, make things complicated. You can be spiritual. I mean, people get, do the ceremony, little ceremonies all the time, they just don't bring in the legal paperwork. So, yeah, you can do that, too. For sure. Well, they seem happy, nonetheless. That's the key. That's what matters. That's what matters, absolutely. All right, Corey. Okay, if she likes it, we love it. I got it. All right, well, Barbara Walters wasn't afraid to go wherever the story led, and apparently it once led her to New York City's Playboy Club. A recent archival piece shows the late journalist taking a shift on New Year's Eve in 1962. She described the costume as a too-tight satin bathing suit, and admitted it made her feel, quote, ridiculous. Potential bunnies would go through two weeks of bunny school to learn the ins and outs. Sponsors said that they made about $200 to $300 a week. Which was a lot of money back then. Yeah, I guess so. Yeah, $200, $300 a week. What is that now? You think with inflation? Maybe at least $800? It's probably worth $800. Add another zero to that. Yeah, yeah. But for her to put the whole cost of it and everything, she really took her journalist job seriously. Yeah, she was like, I want to really... Go through what they go through. I want to see, yeah, big ups. I mean, that's dedication. Yeah, that's some real investigative work there. If you could go undercover for something, what would it be? Well, it would have nothing to do with Playboy. Good boy, I take that. I'm trying to keep this job. Good for her. You are. I was like, I've got to keep my job. You know what's so funny? I was just talking about Never Been Kissed. It's one of my favorite all-time movies. Drew Barrymore and David Arquette. She's an undercover journalist who goes back to high school. high school to talk about what it's like today and ends up falling in love with it. Long story short, great movie. Check it out. She went undercover, though, and it wasn't for Playboy, but it was to be a 17-year-old. Oh, yeah, I remember that. It was a good movie. Random, but, you know, thank me later. Later. All right, guys. Okay, looks like we have run out of time. Jay Carter, always good to have you. Yes, yes. More for next time. Yes, check me out, Entertainment Esquire, everywhere you listen to podcasts, everywhere you watch YouTube, I'm there.
