Everyone Is Laughing At JD Vance's Response To His Character In The New "South Park" Episode

Remember when the White House had a complete meltdown over South Park airing an episode about Donald Trump getting into bed with Satan and unveiling a micropenis? Well, the show aired its second episode of Season 27 last night, along with JD Vance's character debut. Related: JD is depicted as Trump's brown-nosing lackey who the president calls "stupid"... ...and literally kicks around. At one point, when Trump bursts into Satan's bedroom and immediately takes off his pants, JD appears with a bottle, asking, "Would you like me to apply the baby oil to Satan's asshole, boss?" Now, the real JD Vance has responded (and he's opting for a different approach in his public statement than the White House). Related: "Well, I've finally made it," the 41-year-old shared on X alongside an image from the episode. His post has been viewed by over 14.7 million a lot of them aren't buying his attempt to brush it off. Related: "This is JD pretending he's cool with it," one person wrote. Someone questioned why JD chose the image of him and Trump standing next to each other, instead of the one inside Satan's room. Another mocked him for "making it." A TON of people left comments saying something like, "we're not laughing with you. We're laughing AT YOU." Related: Or they suggested he may just not understand that the depiction is no laughing matter. Regardless, commenters insisted, "The likeness [of the character and JD] is exquisite." What are your thoughts on JD's response? Let us know in the comments. Also in In the News: Also in In the News: Also in In the News:

Eminem feared dying amid addiction troubles

Eminem feared he might die amid his struggles with addiction. The 52-year-old rapper became addicted to prescription pills amid his sudden rise to stardom in the early 2000s, and Eminem has confessed to fearing for his life at one point in time. He said in his new Stans documentary: "I got into this vicious cycle of, 'I'm depressed so I need more pills,' and then your tolerance gets so high that you end up overdosing. "I woke up in the hospital and I didn't know what happened. I woke up in the hospital with tubes in me and s*** and I couldn't get up, I wanted to move. "After the overdose, I came home like I needed something … like, I'm gonna die if I don't do anything." Eminem - whose real name is Marshall Mathers - actually missed the birth of his daughter due to his addiction struggles, and that proved to be a turning point in his life. The rap star - who is one of the best-selling artists of all time - shared: "I cried because it was like, 'Oh my god, I missed that.' I kept saying to myself, 'Do you want to f****** miss this again? Do you want to miss everything? If you can't do it for yourself, you f****** p****, at least do it for them.' I realised I'm never doing this again." Eminem's new documentary is directed by Steven Leckart, who jumped at the chance to work on the project. Speaking about the documentary, Steven told Us Weekly: "I grew up on hip hop in the '80s and '90s, and became a fan of Eminem's music in '99 and watched his rise on MTV. "So when the opportunity came to me to have the conversation with him and his team to try to come up with a documentary based on one of the most iconic songs ever written, I was like, 'Yeah, of course, that sounds wonderful.' So then it was just a question of coming up with the right approach."
