Joe Rogan Slams Outrage Over Jimmy Kimmel’s Melania Trump Joke

In his latest podcast episode,Joe Roganlingered on the firestorm surroundingJimmy Kimmela little longer before offering his take. The controversy started with a remark Kimmel made about First LadyMelaniaTrumpduring his April 23 mock White House Correspondents’ Dinner segment. What followed was a pointed defense of the late-night host and a broader critique of how jokes are weaponized after real-world events unfold.

Joe Rogan steps in to defend Jimmy Kimmel amid Melania Trump joke backlash

Joe Roganhas thrown his weight behind Jimmy Kimmel, pushing back against the wave of backlash sparked by the talk show host’s controversial Melania Trump punchline.

During a White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner skit, Kimmel had joked that First Lady Melania Trump carried the glow of an expectant widow. The segment aired days before the shooting on Saturday. Rogan highlighted that the line drew no reaction at first.

“It came out on Thursday. No one cared Friday. No one cared on Saturday until Saturday night when the assassination attempt, and then all the sudden, everyone’s blaming Kimmel,” he highlighted on Friday on The Joe Rogan Experience.

Rogan further argued that Kimmel’s joke wasn’t one-dimensional, noting it was open to interpretation. “Could be [an old guy joke] or an assassination joke if you want to take it that way. But he is old,” he said.

Meanwhile, Melania Trump also took toX (formerly Twitter) on Monday morning to condemn the remark, calling it inappropriate and damaging. “His monologue about my family isn’t comedy — his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America,” she stated.

President Donald Trump joined the fray on Truth Social, urging Kimmel’s termination and condemning the joke as a “despicable” affront to his wife.

However, Kimmel has not issued an apology for the joke and addressed the backlash head-on during Monday’s episode ofJimmy Kimmel Live!

“You know how sometimes you wake up in the morning and the first lady puts out a statement demanding you be fired from your job? We’ve all been there, right?” the popular host said.

Part of what’s kept the brand in rotation for so long is its A-list following —Catherine Zeta Jones,Bethenny FrankelandCindy Crawfordare all fans (and not in a one-post, one-product kind of way, but as part of their actual routines). Known for itsPro-Collagen line, Elemis focuses on marine-powered formulas that hydrate, soften and help skin look naturally firmer over time. Below, pick up our three favorites while they're on rare sale.

Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm

ThePro-Collagen Cleansing Balmis easily one of the brand’s most talked-about products — and for good reason. The texture starts as a rich balm, melts into a silky oil as it's massaged in, and then transforms into a milky cleanser upon contact with water, making the whole process feel more like a mini facial than a basic face wash.One Amazon shoppersaid it "melts makeup off easily" and is "worth the hype."

Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream

In the morning, thePro-Collagen Marine Creamis a standout. The texture feels like a true in-between: light and breathable going on, but still rich enough to leave skin feeling properly moisturized. It’s formulated with marine-based ingredients like algae, which help support the look of firmness, along with humectants that pull in hydration to keep skin looking plump and smooth throughout the day.

Elemis Pro-Collagen Vitality Eye Cream

ThePro-Collagen Vitality Eye Creamis designed for that in-between moment when your undereyes need more than hydration, but you don’t want anything heavy or overly rich. The texture lands right in that sweet spot — creamy enough to feel nourishing, but lightweight enough to absorb quickly and sit well under makeup without creasing or slipping. It doesn’t pill or feel greasy, and it layers well with concealer (which, truthfully, is half the battle with eye creams). With consistent use, it helps smooth the look of fine lines and keeps the undereye area looking more even and hydrated, so everything you apply on top looks better too.

If you’ve been considering trying the brand, this is one of the better moments to do it — especially while these Pro-Collagen favorites are discounted on Amazon!

Britney Spears' Lawyer Says She's 'Accepted Responsibility for Her Conduct' Pleading Guilty to Reckless Driving in DUI Case

NEED TO KNOW

Her lawyer issued a statement after the arraignment

Britney Spears' lawyer is speaking out after she took a plea deal in her DUI case.

Spears' lawyer, Michael A. Goldstein, appeared on the 44-year-old pop star's behalf at a Ventura County courthouse on Monday, May 4 for her arraignment after she was arrested in March on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol.

Goldstein agreed on Spears' behalf to plead guilty to what's known as a "wet reckless." She was sentenced to 12 months probation and one day of jail, credited as time served, by Ventura County Commissioner Matthew Nemerson. She was fined $571.00 and must see a psychologist once a week and a psychiatrist twice a month. Her vehicle is authorized to be searched for drugs and alcohol.

In a statement to PEOPLE, Goldstein says, "Through her plea today, Britney has accepted responsibility for her conduct. She has taken significant steps to implement positive change which is clearly reflected in the Ventura County District Attorney’s decision to reduce the charge in this case and dismiss the DUI."

He continued, "Britney appreciates this discretion and is also grateful for the outpouring of support she has received."

Last week,Spears left a treatment facilityafter voluntarily entering following the arrest. She's since been photographed riding as a passenger in a car multiple times.

Spearswas officially charged with a misdemeanor, prosecutors in the Ventura County District Attorney's Office announced on Thursday, April 30.

PEOPLE previously reported Spears was likely to avoid jail time in her case if she were to plead guilty to a lesser charge through a standard protocol known as a "wet reckless," which lets a defendant plead guilty to reckless driving involving alcohol and/or drugs and undergo 12 months of probation while earning credit for any time spent in custody.

In that scenario, the defendant is required to complete a DUI class and also pay state-mandated fines and fees.

Spears was eligible for the deal due to her lack of a prior DUI history as well as the facts that there was no crash or injury in her arrest, and she had a low blood alcohol level.

Such resolutions are common, according to officers, especially when the defendant “demonstrates self-motivation to address underlying issues through rehabilitation or a drug and alcohol treatment program.”

Following Spears' arrest, a rep for the Grammy winner told PEOPLE she would take “the right steps and comply with the law.”

“Hopefully this can be the first step in long overdue change that needs to occur in Britney's life,” the rep said. “Hopefully, she can get the help and support she needs during this difficult time. Her boys are going to be spending time with her. Her loved ones are going to come up with an overdue needed plan to set her up for success for well being.”

At the time, a source told PEOPLE that Spears' sons —Sean Preston, 20, andJayden James, 19, shared with ex-husbandKevin Federline— were animportant factor in her choosingto seek help.

"Her sons were a big part of getting her to rehab. They've been clear with her. They just want her to be healthy," the source said.

Asecond sourceadded, "She understands the seriousness of her situation and felt [seeking treatment] was the best step moving forward."

How Ana Navarro is working around getting bleeped on 'The View'

NEW YORK –Ana Navarrois ready to tape her new podcast anytime, anywhere.

TheCNNcontributor andABC "The View"cohost, 54, launched"Bleep! with Ana Navarro"earlier this year. While on Easter break in Costa Rica on April 9,First Lady Melania Trumpissued a statement at the White House in which she deniedhaving any involvementwith convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Navarro, armed with mobile recording equipment, hopped into action. And while the timing of the Trump's press conference befuddled some, Navarro believes that there was clearly a plan in place.

"She obviously didn't write that stuff herself, right?" she tells USA TODAY. "It was full of legalese. So yes, I think she got advice. I think she got help. But because of that, I've now done a couple of breaking news episodes of the podcast from a portable thing I have."

When Ana Navarro stopped by USA TODAY's New York studio, she brought along a very special guest: her pet dog Cha-Cha.

Navarro, anoutspoken criticof the Trump administration, teamed up with iHeartMedia and Hyphenate Media Group for her new podcast. Hyphenate was launched by actressEva Longoriaand media executive Cris Abrego. Longoria also serves as an executive producer of Navarro's podcast.

"There are not that many Latino voices breaking down news," Navarro says about why she continues to lean in to these news cycles. "One of the things that most touches me is anytime I'm in the supermarket or I'm at the airport and some young Latina comes up to me and tells me how much it means for them to have somebody like me speaking up on behalf of our community.

"It's like a privilege and a duty."

'The View' inspired Ana Navarro's new podcast

The title of Navarro's podcast is a playful jab at her other her day job.

"The problem is that I get bleeped at'The View,'"she explains. "Sometimes I try to say things in Spanish. So now (ABC is) to the point where if I say 'queso,' they will bleep me out because they don't know what I'm saying and they're nervous."

She will not be censored on her own show.

Navarro's goal with the podcast is to both interview interesting subjects and break down news items without the typical restrictions of cable or broadcast TV, where a cohost or panelist may only get a fraction of a 7 minute segment to speak.

But she still enjoys her work on TV, despite the occasionally "bleep" and her commute between New York and Miami. Navarro believes authenticity is the key to any successful show and is one of the reason why "The View" has lasted on ABC for almost 29 years.

"It's women from different backgrounds, different generations, different races, ethnicities, different takes on life, giving their opinions," she explains. Cohosts on the view range from age 36 (former White House strategic communications directorAlyssa Farah Griffin) to 83 (actress-comedianJoy Behar).

Navarro also credits the team behind the cameras, whom she calls "an entire family." She says some have worked there since the show's launch with Barbara Walters in 1997. "They run like a fine tuned Swiss watch and they keep the shows going."
