Dina's Dirt for January 8, 2025

Jamie Foxx shared during a red carpet interview ahead of the Golden Globes how his nurse flat-out told him he had a very slim chance of making it when he was admitted with a medical emergency in 2023. She told him he was a "5 percenter" but said when she saw it was him, she rolled up her sleeves, ready to go. I hope she feels that way about her other patients.

"Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Jennifer Aydin is feeling some fallout after slamming and age shaming a Jersey Mike's worker who was making her order. She has been dropped from her "Wives on the Waves" Fans at Sea getaway. Jennifer was supposed to join Teresa Giudice and Dolores Cantania for the five-day trip, but organizers are saying their "priority is to create a drama-free, fun-filled experience for everyone" despite claiming the decision to drop Jennifer was neither "personal" or "an act of canceling anyone," according to Page Six.

Jimmy Kimmel asked Cher is asked if she's ever done "regular people" things like shopped at Costco. She said she thought she had been to Costco once, and Jimmy said if she had, she'd know it. He then begged Cher to let him take her to Costco sometime and she agreed. Taking someone to Costco for the first time is like getting to experience that look on a kid's face if you brought them to a candy store, or my husband if you brought him to Home Depot.

Nikki Glaser did such a great job hosting the Golden Globes that they offered her a deal to come back for the next three years. They appreciated that she did "not go so hard" at celebs, being funny while not overly insulting or embarrassing anyone. Nikki did say ahead of time she wasn't going to make jokes where "anyone's gonna be offended. I've made a point not to." That decision comes from her own negative experiences being roasted.
Once, Pete Davidson once joked Nikki did "not have an ass," and another time she also admitted to having a procedure done after, "Blake Griffin said I looked like Larry Bird, and the response from the crowd was so overwhelming – it killed so hard that I was like, I can't deny that."

Post Malone tipped a bartender $20,000 on Christmas Eve. The bartender was bummed that she was missing Christmas Eve with her 9-year-old daughter, and that's when Post Malone left her the big money. She was thrilled, saying, "This put me in a position to at least be able to get a way back and forth to work and pay up on rent and save a bit. I'm trying to save up to start a business, so I don't have to continue working two jobs and be able to spend more time with my daughter."

Kathy Bates was caught ripping up her speech after losing the award for Best Actress at the 2025 Golden Globes. When Anna Sawai's name was announced for "Shogun," Kathy clapped politely before looking into the camera with big eyes and ripping the paper in half. It appears it was meant jokingly, and during Anna's speech, Anna paid homage to Kathy, saying, "I have so much people to thank but I'm gonna keep it short, thank you to the voters for voting for me even though. I would vote for Kathy Bates any day."
