No Eminem isn’t really on Grindr – or Tinder for that matter
Eminem is not using dating apps, alas (Pictures: Rex/Tinder)
Well that joke backfired.

Well that joke backfired.
Eminem made a funny about being on dating apps, in particular one used by gay and bisexual men to meet other men, and has now been forced to explain that no he isn’t after fans took him seriously.
It’s not funny if you have to explain the punch line, Em.
In the interview with Vulture, Eminem originally said of his dating habits: ‘Well, yeah. Yeah Tinder. And Grindr. I also used to go to strip clubs. What can I say?
‘Going to strip clubs is how I was meeting some chicks. It was an interesting time for me.’
Well come now, it was clear the 45-year-old was having a laugh, but still, his people responded to the shock reaction by clarifying to The Muse: ‘I’m confirming that he was joking about using both Tinder and Grindr.’

In the same interview he dropped his Grindr joke, Eminem also responded to criticisms he has used his lyrics to be misogynistic and homophobic.
‘The first time I got a taste of being called anti-gay was on My Name Is when I said, ‘My English teacher wanted to have sex in junior high / The only problem was my English teacher was a guy,’” he explained.
‘All I was saying was I don’t swing that way. So when I started getting flack for it, I thought, “Alright, you people think I’m homophobic? Watch this.”
‘I was trying to push the buttons of people who were calling me something that I wasn’t. The honest-to-God truth is that none of that matters to me: I have no issue with someone’s sexuality, religion, race, none of that.

‘Anyone who’s followed my music knows I’m against bullies — that’s why I hate that fucking bully Trump — and I hate the idea that a kid who’s gay might get shit for it.’
Meanwhile, the rapper is reported to be headlining next year’s Coachella following the success of his comeback album Revival.
Beyonce is also said to be on the bill, which hints at a possible duet from the two next April.

007 film must treat Bond girls properly, says Waller-Bridge

Fast cars, martinis and Bond girls are core parts of the formula for 007 films, but one of those elements is set for a change in the latest adventure.
Fleabag creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who is working on the script for the 25th Bond film, is on a mission to make sure the movie will "treat women properly" – even if the spy does not.
Ahead of the release of the as-yet-untitled film, Waller-Bridge told Deadline: "There's been a lot of talk about whether or not (the Bond franchise) is relevant now because of who he is and the way he treats women.
"I think that's b*******. I think he's absolutely relevant now. It has just got to grow.
"It has just got to evolve, and the important thing is that the film treats the women properly.

"He doesn't have to. He needs to be true to this character."


Waller-Bridge says she intends to ensure the female characters, including those played by Lashana Lynch, Lea Seydoux and Ana de Armas, feel "like real people ".

She added: "I just want to make sure that when they get those pages through, that Lashana, Lea and Ana open them and go, 'I can't wait to do that'.

Sir Elton hits out at Russia for ‘cruel’ Rocketman censorship

Sir Elton John has criticised Russian censors for cutting gay sex scenes from the hit musical biopic Rocketman.
The critically acclaimed film charts the British singer's rise to fame, and its scenes of kissing and sex between men, as well as drug use, contributed to it earning a 15 certificate in the UK.
But in a bid to play down the sexuality of Sir Elton, played by actor Taron Egerton, for a conservative Russian audience, an estimated five minutes of footage was reportedly removed ahead of its debut in Moscow.
The Moscow Times quoted a Russian film critic who had seen the film at its world premiere in Cannes on 16 May as saying "all scenes with kissing, sex and oral sex between men have been cut", as well as a photo displayed during the end credits featuring Sir Elton and his husband David Furnish.
Sir Elton, 72, a prominent gay rights campaigner, released a joint statement with the makers of the film to accuse censors of being "cruelly unaccepting of the love between two people".

"We reject in the strongest possible terms the decision to pander to local laws and censor Rocketman for the Russian market, a move we were unaware of until today," they said.
"That the local distributor has edited out certain scenes, denying the audience the opportunity to see the film as it was intended, is a sad reflection of the divided world we still live in and how it can still be so cruelly unaccepting of the love between two people.
