LGBTQ+ Fans Celebrate After Alanis Morissette Comes Out As Pansexual: 'I Get Everything'
Nov 10, 2026
During a recent episode of Tig Notaro, Fortune Feimster, and Mae Martin's Handsome podcast, Canadian singer songwriter and actor Alanis Morissette came out as pansexual.
What is pansexual?
According to LGBTQ+ youth suicide prevention and mental health organization The Trevor Project, pansexuality is a "sexual, romantic, or emotional attraction to people regardless of their gender, sex, or gender identity." Some people view it as distinctly different from bisexuality, while others view it as just a more inclusive term for the same thing.
In the end, how a person chooses to define their sexuality is their choice.
As Sue Cardenas-Soto shared in their essay on The Trevor Project website:
"When I fall in love with someone, I don’t fall in love with their gender—I fall in love with the unique and wonderful person I see."
Morissette, who was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame this year, was a guest of the trio of comedians and actors for their November 3 podcast episode.
Near the end of the hour-long discussion, Feimster said to Morissette:
"I’m sorry for the men that hurt you, but I’m not sorry for the songs that came from it. Those are pretty amazing. Did it make you want to be a lesbian at any point?"
Morissette replied:
"I'm pansexual, so yeah. I get everything."
Seemingly shocked by the news, Notaro responded:
"Wait, you're not really pansexual, are you?"
Morissette confirmed she was pansexual, to which Martin said:
"Me too!"
Morissette had disclosed prior relationships with women in 2008 on The Howard Stern Show, then later spoke about that disclosure in an article for The Advocate, but had not specifically defined her sexuality at the time.
People were thrilled the award-winning musician was providing increased visibility for pansexuality.







Many people referenced Morissette's role as God in Kevin Smith's film Dogma.





When Notaro told Morissette:
"How did I not know this? You’re supposed to come into the 'Handsome' podcast leading with, 'I’m pansexual.'"
Morissette quipped:
"You know, I like to leave it for the epilogue. I like to confuse people on the way out. Is it confusing?"
Not confusing at all. Love is love.

Hillary Clinton Uses Trump Catchphrase To Troll Him After He Criticizes Her Home Decor
Nov 10, 2026
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had a quick response after President Donald Trump lashed out at her and claimed he "doesn't like" her home when a reporter informed him that she had criticized his taste in gold White House decor.
Trump has given significant attention to White House renovations and other pet projects around Washington, D.C., during his second term in office. Trump's White House renovations have already cost nearly $1 billion, according to one analysis.
Chief among these renovations is the White House ballroom. Last year, the president ordered the demolition of the entire East Wing to make way for a 90,000 square-foot ballroom that will dwarf the size of the White House itself, sparking alarm from historical preservationists and the public alike.
The Oval Office has also been significantly revamped since Trump took office in January 2025. It features, among other things, a fireplace adorned with gold cherubs and medallions, surrounded by portraits of American statesmen in ornate gold frames and shelves filled with gilded figurines, urns, and freshly installed Rococo mirrors.
As Americans grappled with rising living costs, Clinton argued over the summer that the White House had become “so tacky” under Trump. She said its appearance reflected what she viewed as his narcissism and desire for attention, pointing to the addition of gold accents throughout the Oval Office.
Clinton, in an interview with journalist Kara Swisher, said:
“It’s sad that it’s so tacky-ed up. It’s a reflection of, you know, his narcissistic personality and his need to feel important, including sticking gold embellishments all over the walls of the Oval Office.”
“This is a man who can’t concentrate. This is a man whose mind apparently goes to, ‘Where can I add more gold?’ instead of ‘How do I get out of Iran without looking like the loser that I am?’ ‘How do I begin to, you know, deal with AI, which is a serious threat to our security, our labor force and so much else?’”
“His mind is about, ‘What are these things that reflect my need to appear important?’ and so, that’s what he spends his time on."
A few days ago, these remarks were brought to Trump's attention and he lashed out, saying he doesn't like the way Clinton decorates her own home:
“She did? I don’t like her house either. I know her house very well.”
"Look, the Oval Office is a place of victory. It's a place of prestige. Like the White House, if you had looked, see that beautiful white wall? There's no gold in that."
"But I fixed all of the monuments. I fixed all of the borders. You have borders, and you have broken windows. ... This is representative of our nation."
You can hear what Trump said in the video below.
The relationship between Trump and the Clintons was not always adversarial. The former first couple attended his wedding celebrations in 2005, but years later their friendship gave way to a fierce political rivalry, particularly during the 2016 election campaign.
But still, that doesn't mean that Trump was ever actually in Clinton's home—and she was quick to mock him in a social media post that is written in a style similar to the one Trump uses in his Truth Social posts.
She replied with the following while sharing a screenshot of a story about Trump's remarks:
"He's never been in my house. He'll never be in my house. Thank you for your attention to the matter of my house."
You can see what she wrote in the video below.
Others criticized Trump in turn.
Trump is certainly the pettiest man to ever be president. It's no wonder he cost his party the midterms.

Trump Blasted For Completely Out-Of-Touch Response To His Net Worth Going Up By Billions During His 2nd Term
Nov 10, 2026
President Donald Trump was widely criticized for his tone-deaf response after he was questioned by 60 Minutes correspondent Ross Douthat about the billions of dollars reportedly added to his net worth during his second term.
A recent Forbes report noted that Trump's “net worth went up by $3 billion” since he returned to office in January 2025. The publication's estimate says Trump’s net worth exploded from $3.9 billion in 2024 to $7 billion in 2026.
Democrats swept midterm elections races last week, regaining control of both chambers of Congress amid widespread concerns about the cost of living and the war in Iran, which has caused a surge in gas prices.
After questioning Trump about the election results—Trump bragged about the size of his rallies when he was asked to give his “political analysis” on the “big, some might say, historic defeat” of the GOP—the discussion turned to Trump's net worth.
When asked about the Forbes story saying his net worth had risen by $3 billion, Trump was immediately dismissive, responding:
“Well, so did everyone’s."
Douthat responded:
“My net worth did not go up by three billion dollars, for the record."
Trump said:
"Well, you should have had stock."
You can watch the exchange in the video below.
Trump was harshly rebuked for his remarks.
Trump's appearance on 60 Minutes came just weeks after he faced criticism for claiming to members of the press that "almost every price has come way down" following Joe Biden's presidency.
Trump said without citing any evidence that "with the exception of oil, which is lower than the Biden administration and we no longer have to worry about nuclear weapons with Iran because they're wiped out." He insisted that "401Ks are at their all-time high, the stock markets are at their all-time high, and our country is doing really well."
Many of the problems associated with Trump’s second administration were foreseeable, given his longstanding record of prioritizing his own interests and failing to consistently follow through for his supporters.
Last year, insisting prices are down despite rising inflation, Trump claimed that affordability "doesn't mean a thing to anybody." He went on to accuse Democrats of crafting a “fake narrative” and “con job” to trick the American people into not voting for Republicans.
Instead, Trump has given significant attention to White House renovations and other pet projects around Washington, D.C. Trump's White House renovations have already cost nearly $1 billion, according to one analysis.

Trump Does About-Face To Push New Election Conspiracy Theory—And Here We Go Again
Nov 10, 2026
After previously appearing to accept the midterm election results, President Donald Trump did an about-face and declared in a post on Truth Social that they weren't "honest."
Last week, Democrats swept midterm election races to win back both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate in a clear repudiation of the Trump administration. Trump had a noticeably muted reaction to the results but initially congratulated Democrats and pledged to work with them when new members of Congress are sworn in.
Now, however, he's gone back to his old script of election fraud conspiracies, writing the following message on his social media platform:
“Does anybody really believe that this ‘Election’ was honest. How could the Polls be so wrong???"
“Some early voting ‘dumps’ were so large that it was impossible to win, no matter how many people went to vote. It’s all about the machines, which are far more important than the voter!”
Trump published the message on the same day he announced that Stephen Miller, the architect of the widely unpopular immigration crackdown and other draconian human rights abuses, would be his next White House chief of staff, replacing Susie Wiles.
You can see what he wrote below.

No one was surprised to see Trump up to his old tricks.
Trump has for years promoted election conspiracy theories; his lies about the 2020 election result—which former President Joe Biden won decisively–culminated in the insurrection of January 6, 2021, when a mob of his supporters attacked the U.S. Capitol on the false premise that the election was stolen.
While many polls anticipated a strong showing for Democrats, fueled by voter concerns over the Iran war and the cost of living, the party ultimately outperformed those projections.
As of Monday, Democrats were expected to hold a commanding advantage in Congress, with projected totals of 54 Senate seats and 253 House seats, compared with 44 and 160, respectively, for Republicans, as vote counting continued in a handful of races.

Viral Video Of Jack Black And Celine Dion Rocking Out At Metallica Concert In Las Vegas Has Fans Going Wild
Nov 09, 2026
Celine Dion and Jack Black rocking out together at a Metallica concert? Now that's a pairing nobody saw coming.
The two stars were spotted letting loose during Metallica's Life Burns Faster residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas last Saturday, and the footage quickly made its way across social media. While Black's love for heavy metal is hardly a secret, Dion's enthusiasm might surprise fans more familiar with her powerhouse ballads.
Watch the unexpected duo rock out to Metallica:

But Dion's appreciation for Metallica isn't entirely new. Earlier this year, the singer included the band's 1996 song "Until It Sleeps" on her personal playlist. Her son Eddy is a major fan, too.
Dion revealed just how much her son loves the heavy metal band:
“Eddy, one of my twins, his favorite band is Metallica."
The 58-year-old singer attended two Metallica concerts that week with her 16-year-old twin sons, Eddy and Nelson Angélil. After Saturday's show, the family headed backstage to meet band members James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett and Robert Trujillo.
The "My Heart Will Go On" superstar shared photos of the encounter on Instagram, including a group shot with the band:
“Thank you James, Lars, Kirk and Rob and everyone from the @Metallica organization for the warm welcome!”
The gallery captured some lighter moments, too, with Dion and Trujillo striking exaggerated poses for the camera.
See the backstage photos from Dion's Metallica experience:
Seeing Dion enjoying herself at Metallica is just one of several memorable moments in what has become a remarkable comeback year for the singer.
After years away from full-length concerts following her December 2022 stiff-person syndrome diagnosis, Dion returned to the stage in Paris on September 12. The rare neurological disorder, which causes muscle stiffness and painful spasms, had forced her to put touring on hold.
By October 17, Dion had completed 16 performances, grossing a reported $125.5 million and selling 539,000 tickets, according to Billboard.
But beyond the impressive numbers, it was the emotional reunion with fans that made her comeback especially meaningful.
Dion reflected on the promise she made to fans during her Paris return:
“I made a promise. I made a promise to come back, to be back on stage. So here I am, singing for you and singing for me, singing life! Thank you so very much for your support, your patience and if I may say so: I am everything I am because you loved me.”
The Grammy winner is scheduled for another 10 Paris performances in May 2027.
Meanwhile, a USA TODAY report highlighted promising early research into CAR-T cell therapy for stiff-person syndrome. Some study participants experienced substantial improvements, although researchers are still investigating whether the results can be sustained long-term. There is no indication Dion received the treatment.
Mayo Clinic neurologist Dr. Anastasia Zekeridou underscored how unusual such improvements can be:
“With existing treatments, we may be able to improve symptoms, but we very rarely see patients return to their previous level of function.”
Some celebrity sightings make perfect sense. Dion and Black rocking out to Metallica together? That's the kind of plot twist the internet lives for.
And the online reactions were a show of their own:
Black's love of rock music is well documented, but his connection to Metallica goes beyond simply attending their concerts. The actor has even crossed paths with the band's frontman, James Hetfield.
Check out Black's earlier viral TikTok moment with Hetfield:
Black's movie schedule is also filling up. He's expected to reprise his role as Professor Sheldon “Shelly” Oberon in Jumanji: Open World on December 25 before returning as Steve in A Minecraft Movie Squared, expected in 2027.
Saturday also marked Metallica's final Sphere performance of 2026. Next up are concerts at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut, on November 19 and November 21 before the band returns to Las Vegas in January 2027 for more residency shows through March.
And while Metallica has more shows ahead, it's Dion and Black's unexpected concert pairing that stole the spotlight, proving some of the best celebrity moments happen offstage, not on it.
