Meghan Markle talked about how she felt reduced to being a bimbo in her role as a briefcase girl on "Deal or No Deal," but now she's being called a hypocrite for her comments for taking on an even more demeaning role after that one. Daily Mail got a hold of an old clip from an episode of "90210," which she filmed after she left "Deal or No Deal," and it shows Meghan in a car with a boy. Let's just say you don't see her until her head pops up from the boy's lap. People had thoughts, including, "No one forced you. No one reduced you. You willingly took those jobs," and "What was going through her mind when she read for that role? Was that going to be her breakout starring role?" RadarOnline.com reports that, according to a biography about the royal couple called "Finding Freedom," Meghan took the roles on 'Deal or No Deal' and '90210' because "struggling actresses can't be picky."

Then he added, "Can you imagine now, if we just blasted her on Twitter? Would that be fair? This is my point. It's insane."

Madonna caused a bit of drama on social media this weekend, particularly angering Cardi B. To mark the 30th anniversary of her coffee table book "S.E.X.", Madonna argued how it set the stage for other artists to be free to express their sexuality. She wrote, "I spent the next few years being interviewed by narrow minded people who tried to shame me for empowering myself as a woman. Now Cardi B can sing about her WAP, Kim Kardashian can grace the cover of any magazine with her naked a**, and Miley Cyrus can come in like a wrecking ball. You're welcome b****es...🤡" Cardi B's response? "I literally payed this woman homage so many times cause I grew up listening to her…she can make her point without putting clown emojis and getting slick out the mouth. These icons really become disappointments once u make it in the industry that's why I keep to myself." But just as quickly as the posts went up, Cardi took them down and wrote, "I talked to Madonna …It was beautiful 🥲….Have a great day and drive safely yallll😘," with Madonna replying, "I love you. @iamcardib!! ♥️Always have and always will."
