Seth Rogen is getting dumped on for mocking someone whose car was broken into. A YouTuber was bashing LA, calling it a "crime riddled 3rd world s***hole of a city," after someone broke into his car and stole his 7-year-old daughter's birthday party decorations. Seth wrote, "Dude, I've lived here for over 20 years. You're nuts haha. It's lovely here. Don't leave anything valuable in it. It's called living in a big city." The guy wrote back saying he felt violated and wanted to know if he's allowed to be mad. Seth responded, "You can be mad but I guess I don't personally view my car as an extension of myself and I've never really felt violated any of the 15 or so times my car was broken into. Once a guy accidentally left a cool knife in my car so if it keeps happening you might get a little treat." Twitter didn't appreciate Seth's sarcasm, according to TMZ, with many accusing him of acting "privileged."

Jussie Smollett is headed to court today for allegedly faking a racist and homophobic back in January 2019. As we told you, he was originally charged with filing a fake police report when investigators discovered that he allegedly paid two brothers to stage the crime against him because he wasn't happy with his "Empire" salary. Those charges were dropped in exchange for paying a fine and performing community service, but with outrage over a celebrity potentially getting special treatment, a judge then assigned a special prosecutor to the case, who charged Jussie with six new counts of disorderly conduct. If Jussie is convicted, he could face up to three years in prison.
However, legal experts have said that it's more likely that he'll be placed on probation and perhaps ordered to perform more community service, according to USA Today.
