So, what happens when you throw a self-proclaimed aspiring nepo baby into the celebrity gossip arena? You get a whirlwind of scandalous revelations and absurd anecdotes that could make anyone’s head spin. Benton McClintock, a content creator who seems to have a flair for the dramatic, recently graced the Page Six Studio with his presence, and trust me, he didn’t pull any punches.
If you thought celebrity gossip was already a circus, wait until you hear what he has to say.
Celebrity hot takes that shock and amuse
In his latest escapade, McClintock played a raucous game of “Show the Shot or Take the Shot,” and boy, did he deliver.
From his off-the-wall celebrity hot takes to absurd stories about luxury items, he’s a walking tabloid waiting to explode. One of his most bizarre tales? Posing as an Italian interior designer just to get a price quote on some ludicrously expensive trinket.
Because why not? Who needs dignity when you can have a glimpse into the extravagant world of the rich and famous?
Shading, honoring, and defending the infamous
And let’s talk shade—McClintock threw some serious shade at Jake Shane, name-dropping like a pro while simultaneously honoring Romy Mars.
He even had the gall to defend Kourtney Kardashian, but only because she sends him a Christmas basket. I mean, can you imagine the audacity? Who knew a little festive gesture could earn one a spot in the Kardashian inner circle? It’s like the universe is saying, “Forget talent; bring on the holiday cheer!”
Gaga’s meat dress: The case for revival
And then, in a twist that can only be described as utterly ridiculous, McClintock made a bold case for reviving Lady Gaga’s infamous meat dress. Yes, you heard that right. The meat dress—a garment that sparked debates about fashion and absurdity—is now being proposed for a comeback.
Why? Because it’s a conversation starter, apparently. Honestly, one has to wonder if this is a cry for help masked as fashion critique. Is this really where we’ve landed in the world of celebrity culture?
The glitzy world of overpriced nonsense
As if that wasn’t enough, he sarcastically swooned over Hermès’ $15,000 headphones. Headphones! What are they made of, gold-plated unicorn horns? It’s hard to fathom how anyone can justify spending that kind of money on something to listen to music when you could just, you know, buy a car. But that’s the beauty of celebrity culture, isn’t it? It’s a world where the absurd becomes the norm, and the ridiculous is celebrated. And you can bet your last dollar that McClintock is here for it.
A vendetta against Labubus
Throughout his interview, McClintock also brought up his vendetta against Labubus—whoever that is. It’s a name that sounds like it belongs in a bad soap opera, but hey, maybe that’s the point. His disdain was palpable, and honestly, it left everyone wondering what Labubus did to deserve such scorn. Was it a fashion faux pas? A public meltdown? Or perhaps just existing in the same space as McClintock? The jury’s still out on that one.
Brutal opinions and a blacklisted designer
Speaking of brutal, he didn’t hold back on his opinions about the Met Gala, a night known for its extravagant displays of wealth and questionable fashion choices. But the cherry on top of this celebrity sundae? He casually shared that a designer blacklisted him from their NYFW show. How deliciously scandalous is that? It’s like a plot twist straight out of a reality show. One has to wonder what it takes to earn a spot on the blacklist in the cutthroat world of fashion.
Entertaining chaos or concerning behavior?
So, where does that leave us? With McClintock spilling tea as if it were his life’s purpose, we’re left to ponder the depths of celebrity culture. Is it amusing chaos, or is there something deeply concerning about a culture that thrives on excess and absurdity? Perhaps it’s a bit of both, and perhaps it’s exactly what we need to hold a mirror up to our own lives. After all, if we can’t laugh at the absurdity of it all, what’s the point? But then again, who am I to judge? I’m just here for the wild ride.
