Hilaria Baldwin exposes ‘inherently cruel' A-lister who spread ‘nasty and untrue' lies: ‘I hope I never meet her'

Yahoo10-05-2025
Don't mess with Hilaria Baldwin.
The entrepreneur, who is married to Alec Baldwin, called out a 'cruel' A-lister she accused of bad-mouthing her loved ones.
In her new book 'Manual Not Included,' she wrote about an unnamed 'famous person, someone [she's] never met, who said nasty and untrue things about [her] and [her] family,' according to People.
Hilaria, 41, subtly hinted at the celeb, saying the person mentioned her family in a 'show' and 'even tried to bait [her] and Alec via Instagram.'
'We didn't engage with her and I guess I am proud of that,' she added. 'It made me mad at the system, but here, in this book, is where I can talk about it.'
'I don't need to use her name and I don't want any problems with her, and I would like to be left out of any articles that mention her, because she has nothing to do with me. A total stranger.'
Hilaria claimed she 'became very sick with stress' when the person's show was released, especially after a comment left one of her seven kids in tears.
'It gutted me because I couldn't understand how someone could be so inherently cruel,' she continued.
'I don't need an apology,' the former yoga instructor added. 'No matter what, I hope I never meet her.'
It's unclear whom Hilaria was talking about, but comedian Amy Schumer, 43, mentioned the Baldwin clan in her June 2023 'Emergency Contact' Netflix special.
'I'm not trying to bully a sociopath — I have a point,' the comedian said about Hilaria faking her Spanish heritage.

'My point is that all evidence points to this woman, since she met her husband, has straight-up pretended to be from Spain.'
Schumer poked fun at 'Hilaria from España' actually being 'Hillary from Boston.'
The actress joked that Hilaria and Alec, 67, gave their 'von Trapp amount of children … Spanish names like Jamón and Croqueta and Flamenco' despite Hilaria being from Massachusetts.
Schumer also claimed that the couple 'don't give a f–k' about the 'Departed' star shooting and killing 'Rust' cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
That same month, Hilaria called out Schumer for being 'cruel to another person.'
Reps for the 'I Feel Pretty' star weren't immediately available to Page Six for comment.

Jamie Lee Curtis calls out film critic's 'harsh' review of 'Freakier Friday'

Jamie Lee Curtis is slamming a negative review of her new movie "Freakier Friday." After Time magazine posted an Instagram caption with its film critic Stephanie Zacharek's take on the beloved 2003 film's sequel (in theaters now), the Oscar winner slammed the reviewer's opinion. The Aug. 8 caption said Zacharek wrote that "no one, as far as we know, actually asked Disney for a sequel to 2003's buoyant, surprisingly unsyrupy generation-gap comedy 'Freaky Friday.'" In response, Curtis commented that the review "SEEMS a TAD HARSH. SOME people LOVE it. Me being one." Fashion designer Brandon Maxwell defended the film in the comments, writing "I really loved this movie ❤️" while online travel agency Expedia joked that Zacharek's review "sounds like someone needs a vacation 👀 May we suggest a digital detox to Nantucket spending your day taking in charming streets and peaceful beaches?" 'Parent Trap' reunion! Lindsay Lohan explains Elaine Hendrix's 'Freakier Friday' cameo The new film picks up over two decades after angsty high school student Anna Coleman (Lindsay Lohan) swapped bodies with her mom, psychologist Tess Coleman (Curtis). This time, Anna is mom to a teenage daughter of her own, Harper Coleman (Julia Butters). And Tess is now a podcast host and overbearing grandmother. Chad Michael Murray reprises his role as Jake, a motorcycle riding heartthrob. In her review, Zacharek also wrote that the sequel "is a movie that manages to humiliate everybody." "And it appears to exist largely for one reason: to grift off the fondness many adults have for the original, even though the sequel has none of that picture's breezy, observant charm," she added. In a recent interview with USA TODAY, the 66-year-old Curtis opened up about returning to her matriarchal character over 20 years later. "There was no possible way we could have done a sequel to 'Freaky Friday' until Lindsay (who is 39) was old enough chronologically to be the mother of a 15-year-old," Curtis said. "So this just needed a time to cook." Curtis realized Lohan had finally aged into the role during the release of "Halloween Ends" in 2022. "I counted on my fingers, and I was like, 'How old is she?'" Curtis said. "I think she was 35 at the time. I was like: 'Oh, wait a minute! She could've had a baby at 20!' " "I picked up the phone and called (Disney CEO) Bob Iger and said, 'I'm just letting you know I've been around the world and the only thing people want to know is when is there a "Freaky Friday" (sequel) and Lindsay is old enough to have a 15-year-old,'" Curtis revealed.

What kept Kelly Clarkson going during ex-husband Brandon Blackstock's ‘devastating' cancer fight

'Workhorse' Kelly Clarkson kept going during her ex Brandon Blackstock's private three-year cancer battle because she had no other choice. The Grammy winner, 43, not only had a syndicated daily talk show to deliver, but she was also gearing up to launch her Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace in July, just weeks before his shocking death. Blackstock passed away at age 48 on Thursday, August 7, after suffering from melanoma, a serious form of skin cancer. 14 Kelly Clarkson performing at the Citi Concert Series for the 'Today' Show in New York on May 6.

Instagram/@kellyclarkson Clarkson held his diagnosis tight to her chest, with sources revealing she told her talk show staff the news in confidence and asked for confidentiality out of respect for the family. Insiders reveal it was those staff members who kept Clarkson going through the hardest time of her life. 'A big part of it was making her schedule available for transporting the children to visit Brandon, and all of the emotions that came with this difficult time,' the insider told Us Weekly, referring to her mysterious 'Kelly Clarkson Show' 10-episode absence earlier this year. 14 Kelly Clarkson returned to her talk show after a 10-episode absence in March.

She hates disappointing people, truly. The thing that kept her going was knowing how many people depend on her, like her crews and employees,' they disclosed. Clarkson, who postponed the remaining August shows of her Las Vegas residency this week, is set to return to work next month. While her residency isn't scheduled to pick back up until November, sources said 'The Kelly Clarkson Show' is still scheduled to return for Season 7 in September. 14 Kelly Clarkson performing during the 'Kelly Clarkson: Studio Sessions' on July 11, 2025, at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace.

Instagram/@kellyclarkson Despite all the people that depend on her, the singer-songwriter's main priority is her children. Clarkson married Blackstock in 2013, and he managed her career. They shared two kids: daughter River, 11, son Remington 'Remy,' 9. The first-ever 'American Idol' winner filed for divorce in 2020, and it was finalized in 2022. 14 Brandon Blackstock and Kelly Clarkson at the 25th annual Critics' Choice Awards in Santa Monica, Calif., on Jan. 12, 2020.

'She has family and friends, but at the end of the day, it's all on her,' the source explained. 'Thankfully, the Blackstocks have come really close together in this time, so they would be happy to be there for the kids.' Blackstock is survived by his three siblings and four children. Before marrying Clarkson, he welcomed daughter Savannah, 23, and son Seth, 18, with his first wife, Melissa Ashworth. 14 Brandon Blackstock died on August 7 after a three-year battle with cancer. Instagram/@kellyclarkson Just one month before his death, Savannah revealed she was expecting her second baby. Blackstock also leaves behind his famous talent manager father, Narvel Blackstock, who previously managed Clarkson and his ex-wife Reba McEntire's careers.

'When she found out that he was sick, she remained protective of him for their sake,' a source told People after Blackstock's death. 'Kelly has always tried to keep things classy. It became clear earlier this year that Brandon was not doing well. She's been devastated for the kids,' they added. Blackstock's family announced his passing in a statement obtained by The Post. 'It is with great sadness that we share the news that Brandon Blackstock has passed away. Brandon bravely battled cancer for more than three years,' his loved ones shared on Thursday. 'He passed away peacefully and was surrounded by family. We thank you for your thoughts and prayers and ask everyone to respect the family's privacy during this very difficult time,' they added.

Howard Stern staffers prepping for show's demise, withholding best material as future uncertain

The writing has 'been on the wall for well over a year now' that SiriusXM wouldn't be renewing Howard Stern's colossal contract — and his employees have been taking advantage, 'coasting' on the clock and trolling for new gigs, two current show staffers told The Post. This week, reports surfaced that the 'Howard Stern Show's' '19-year run at SiriusXM was nearing its end, with his $500 million contract expiring at the end of the year and an audience that's apparently dwindled from 20 million a day to 125,000. Some of the show's writers have been their best jokes for themselves, to use after the show's eventual demise, one worker said. Advertisement Staffers said they're certain the show's ending this winter, whether by Howard's choice or SiriusXM's. GC Images 'Most of us have been coasting at work the last year,' because 'we know he's retiring, whether by choice or because he's forced out,' admitted one of the longtime staffers who dished to The Post this week. Stern's employees have been putting out feelers for other showbiz gigs, the two said. Advertisement 'It's been hard, because the industry [in New York City] is so incestuous, so you don't know who's talking to who,' the first employee said. 'I'm just hanging in there until this is all sorted out, and then I will take some time to unwind after all this,' the staffer continued. 'I'm a fan and it's been a big part of my life for so long, but it hasn't been fun for a while.' Before taking his annual summer break, Stern, 71, hinted in staff meetings his retirement is nigh. The staffers said they've only heard rumors regarding Stern's future at SiriusXM — nothing definitive from management or the self-proclaimed 'King of All Media' himself. The looming end of the once mighty radio personality comes after a sharp change in Stern's politics. Advertisement The radio host used to maintain a friendship with President Trump, but came out against him when he ran against Hillary Clinton in 2015. Once a strong supporter of Republicans like former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Governor George Pataki, Stern has been accused of going woke and was an infamously ardent backer of President Biden and Kamala Harris. Stern's audience has gotten smaller since his 'woke' turn in the late 2010s. GC Images 'I don't know if its wokeness that alienated some of his audience, or if he just got tamer with age, but whatever it is, its apparent no one wants to hear it anymore,' the second staffer offered. Advertisement The political U-turn was done to appease the Hollywood elite, the employee said. 'I think he's content to be out in there in the Hamptons with his celebrity friends,' the first staffer offered. 'He likes being liked by famous people. That seems more important [to him] than his legacy.' Some ribbed Stern, calling him 'Hollywood Howie' after he started hanging around with the likes of Jimmy Kimmel, Jennifer Aniston, Jerry Seinfeld, and John Stamos during the late 2000s and early to mid 2010s. But since COVID Stern's become 'a hermit,' the second staffer said. 'Everyone knows he hasn't been the same since COVID. He does the show from his [Southampton] basement. And it's been sad to see how irrelevant he's become,' the employee added. Stern has also suffered immense loss in recent years, with the deaths of his father, Ben, in 2022, his best friend and stylist, Ralph Cirella, in 2023, and then his agent, Don Buchwald, in 2024. Fans have complained for years about the show's dwindling quality, and Stern's kids-gloves approach with certain guests he once would've skewered. Advertisement 'His passion hasn't been there, and that can be infectious,' the first staffer said. 'When your boss doesn't even seem like he wants to be there, its like, why should I bust my ass?' Stern and SiriusXM did not return requests for comment.
