Patton Oswalt and Dave Chappelle -

Patton Oswalt didn't know what he was getting himself into when he posted a photo of himself and Dave Chappelle, "a genius I started comedy with 34 years ago," after they performed their New Year's Eve sets. Oswalt praised his fellow comedian in the caption, though people criticized him in the comments for his association with Chappelle, who has come under heavy backlash particularly this year after being accused of transphobia in his special 'The Closer.'

Oswalt then shared a lengthy follow-up post on Instagram the next day, though he'd already deleted many comments from the previous post. “I (naively) deleted a lot of posts in the comment thread—critical ones from LGBTQ writers AND s—t posts by TERF/anti-trans orcs looking for clicks & giggles,” he wrote. “I wanted a ‘nice comment thread’ about the pic with my friend. Ugh.”

He explained that he and Chappelle had been friends since they were teens and called him the funniest comedian he's ever met, but after some praise Oswalt added, "But we also 100% disagree about transgender rights & representation." He continued, "For all the things he’s helped ME evolve on, I’ll always disagree with where he stands NOW on transgender issues. But I also don’t believe a seeker like him is done evolving, learning."

Oswalt said that he's previously cut friends off for having different views, but reflected that that might not have been conducive to positive change. "I’m an LGBTQ ally. I’m a loyal friend. There’s friction in those traits that I need to reconcile myself, and not let cause feels of betrayal in ANYONE else. And I’m sorry, truly sorry, that I didn’t consider the hurt this would cause. Or the DEPTH of that hurt."

Selena Gomez and Cara Delevingne -

The two multi-talented women are co-starring in the second season of the hit series 'Only Murders in the Building.' This has apparently brought them even closer. So close, in fact, that they got matching tattoos! Usually when best friends get a matching tattoo it's something subtle, like a little symbol on the ankle perhaps, but that wasn't the case for these ladies. They both got softly colored pink roses in a watercolor style that appears to drip paint. Gomez got hers in the form of a back tattoo, which starts at the top of her spine and runs down between her shoulder blades. Delevingne's is placed on her ribcage under her right arm. The beautiful tattoos serve as a surprising insight into the depth of their relationship.
