Ruth Buzzi (RUTH BUZZI) was a comedic genius. Working alongside her on Laugh-In was the most fun I ever had working. I treasured her friendship and I am heartbroken to wake up to the news that she is gone. I love you, Ruthie. Godspeed, old friend. Sending condolences to... show more

Honoring the Memory of Steven Sotloff, of Blessed Memory Today, we remember Steven Sotloff, a courageous Jewish journalist whose life was tragically taken by ISIS a decade ago. His bravery and dedication to truth continue to inspire us. The greatest tribute we can offer is to ensure that terrorist groups like ISIS, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and their ilk are eradicated. Our mission is clear: to make this world safer for all—except those who seek to destroy it through terror. Who stands with us in this fight?

@Ruth_A_Buzzi You bet your sweet bippy that Ruth Buzzi was an awesome comedienne! To be hit with Gladys Ormphby‘s purse would have been a total honor! May she RIP and keep the laughs going in the next world while we treasure those hilarious memories back here. #RIP #RIPRuthBuzzi

Danielle was such a brilliant as an actress-comedian Her “Dee” was HILARIOUS Her comedic timing was absolutely perfect!! She should’ve won all the Emmys! I mean she would just walk on set and the audience would be ready to laugh. Few actors on sitcoms had that super power…

Melissa Hortman was only 55 years old. She had a lot more to do. It is so bitter and so sad that her life was taken - assassinated for fighting for what she believed in. It will now be up to us to carry on these fights. I will miss her leadership and her friendship as our state navigates these uncertain times. May the memory of Melissa and Mark be a blessing for all who knew and loved them.

🎥 Diljit Dosanjh (DILJIT DOSANJH) takes on his Instagram story to briefly talk about sia and the story of “Hass Hass” (translation below) “Listen to the story of Hass Hass too now. I met Sia for the first time that day. She is a really amazing artist. I heard her vocals and I was blown away. She had already made her verses and her composition. I added my parts to it further on Then as the conversation went ahead, she said that she wanted to sing in Punjabi herself. She was very interested in doing so and was quite adamant Then I thought I am not a writer, how do I write something for her to sing? Then I composed the last part of the song right there. I was really happy that I was able to write for such a big writer who has written for Beyonce as well. I had a lot of fun. It was like our energies were exchanging I sat in the studio for a long time to write the last part in punjabi. Thank you”

Everytime I post Ruthie, she only gets 47 shares😫 Ruthie is here because life got in the way. They lost their home, could no longer afford to pay the bills. The choice was brutal for all😭 Her family loves her so much💝 Ruthie had 3 kids, her whole life revolved around them. Her🐢 was a present from them & her greatest treasure💕 Ruthie goes through the motions but there is a disconnect, a loss of love that has her reeling. She is not aggressive, she doesn't growl, she just exists💔 Our track record is abysmal w/ #BlackDogs, #Animals from displaced humans. I know the odds are against Ruthie, against us. #NYCACC has her rated as an adult only home. Which is beyond heartbreaking. She is #adoptable. Someday, I hope to see a smile on her beautiful face🙏 #Adopt #Foster Otherwise; Dogs always pay the price😭

Back at the pizza shop for whatever reason we always only had teenagers apply so most of my workers were all high school kids. There was this one 16 year old girl who was working there who is as entitled as can be. Anytime she made a mistake and it was brought to her attention, she would call her dad and her dad would come up to the shop to defend her. On this day we were short a driver so I was helping out delivering pizzas while I had the employees tend to the store. The 16 year old girl was trying to joke around and be funny, she through a dough ball at someone and it got stuck in their hair. Almost like gum it was a pain to remove. So that person in turn through a tomato at her and it splattered all over her clothes. She immediately got red in the face and started to cry. She had already clocked out and left when I got back from a delivery. About 5 minutes later her dad shows up and berates me for letting that happen to his daughter. I check the cameras and saw what happened and I even showed it to him but he still feels it was wrong for a tomato to be thrown at her so told him she started it and the other girl with the dough in her hair had to get some of it cut off. I acknowledged that both parties were equally wrong for participating in it but I wasn’t going to fire the girl who threw the tomato as she was responding to doing being thrown in her hair. He wasn’t exactly reasonable in response to my actions so I ended up banning him from the store.

“When I started dating Fille, I told her I had HIV and also said that the last thing I wanted was to infect her. I called my mum and she spoke to a doctor. What helped was that I had been on ARV’s for three years. The doctor said that if I was on ARV’s consistently, Fille wouldn’t be infected. FILLE IS HIV NEGATIVE AS WELL AS ALL MY KIDS.”- Mc Kats.

Over the years, many of you have joined me in celebrating this truly special girl turned young woman, Maddie. I am heartbroken to share with you that Maddie has passed away at the age of 21. I’m sharing a glimpse into my friendship with Maddie because I want people to know how truly special she was. I met Maddie when Kevin and I were filming Kevin Can Wait. Make-A-Wish America reached out and told us that a young girl’s wish was to meet us. I was so touched. This beautiful little girl was a fan of King of Queens? And we of course said yes. Maddie and her family came to visit us on set, and what started as a meet-and-greet turned into a real, almost decade-long, lasting friendship. Maddie would text me almost every day. She sent me funny videos, shared stories about her life, and came out to LA with her family, where I attempted to get her to expand her palate (though she always circled back to her favorite, a Caesar salad). We shared many beautiful moments that have kept me positive in moments of difficulty and darkness, and she was about to come to LA again, where I planned on celebrating her for her birthday and her recent accomplishments. Maddie had Spinal Muscular Atrophy type two (SMA), but she never let it define her. She was excited to begin advocacy work and had recently told me she was officially going to start speaking publicly about her experiences, not even for herself, but to help others. She had big dreams, and I was so proud watching her grow into the leader I always knew she was. Maddie loved her family and friends fiercely. For her young age, she would prefer to be with friends and family, playing games and our favorite, Phase 10. She loved all things girly: nails, hair, makeup, the Timberwolves. And she hated snow (though she lived in Minnesota), and more importantly, she loved helping people. She wrote me love notes daily, and I only hope I had let her know how much joy she brought me. It is me who hopes that she knew how much I loved her. I received this text from her friend Emma, whom I knew from the many funny videos Maddie sent me of the two of them. I’ve included it below. After flying to Minnesota to say goodbye (although she had already passed while I was in the air), I wanted her to know what she meant to me. That she was thinking of me in this way and wanted me to have the things she mentioned, that she cared so much, is also truly touching and heartbreaking. Maddie had so much life ahead of her. Her disease didn’t stop her spirit or dim her light. She was hopeful, brilliant, and genuinely excited for her future. I will miss her texts, her videos, and hearing from her every day. They always made me smile. I will miss her humor and the light she brought into this world every single day. Maddie had just turned 21. Her little body just couldn’t contain the big, beautiful life she was living. She was a force, taken too soon. If you feel moved, it would mean the world to her to support the cause she believed in so passionately: finding a cure for spinal muscular atrophy. Link to support Cure SMA is in my bio.

The news of Dolly Parton’s passing is devastating. I had the extraordinary experience of working with her on The Orville, and it was a joy to discover that she really was exactly the person we all hoped she was. Her kindness, generosity, and authenticity were evident from moment one, and the benign yet assured command she maintained over her empire was obvious from the genuine love and trust you could see from everyone who worked for her. The world is a dimmer place today without her.
