You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from KFI AM six forty.
You can always hit me on Instagram at Later with Moul Kelly. And the
box office is not off to a great summer start. Of course, Memorial
Day weekend is almost upon us. That should be better, hopefully for box
office returns. But this past week was not a really good week. You
had If, which was released this week. I guess that was supposed to
be the biggest release of the week. It came in first, but I
don't know if it did a lot when you talk about it only did thirty
three million domestically, twenty four internationally, total haul of fifty seven million in
its first week. I know that they wanted and expected more than just fifty
seven million for that movie. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes came in
second with twenty five million. That's a pretty good second week. It is
now great a gross two hundred and thirty seven million worldwide after two weeks,
So I would say that's a hit. Not a huge hit, but a
hit in today's world. Number three Mark Ronner The Strangers Chapter one. Yeah,
that made a couple million more than was predicted last week but still not
a ton, not a ton, not a ton, but it overperformed expectations.
The Fall Guy comes in at number four with eight million. It's not
how would you describe it, It's one hundred and twenty seven million worldwide,
nothing to sneeze at, but I know they were hoping for more. Well,
I think words getting around that it's an awful movie. Well, too
bad. Yeah, and I like Ryan Gosling. I just don't know if
I see him as an action star. But see this was supposed to be
a comedic action star playing off of his supposed good looks and making fun.
I mean, suppose he's a good look okay, no, no, no,
no, okay, playing off of his good looks but making him a
hapless here, almost like Chris Hemsworth in you know some of his movies that
he's been in. Well, he doesn't have Hymnsworth to see, but he
thinks he does. Oh no, no, no, Why are you a
Ryan Gosling hater? I think you just hate all guys with named Ryan Ryan
Johnson. Well, we've established that Tuala likes dudes with biker mustaches. Today,
that means he likes you exactly, That's exactly right, that's because I
want you to keep the stash in the little soup cooler. Yeah, souper
cooler. Well, the little triangle into the little Yeah. Okay, well
we've just the point is we're talking about Tuala's taste. So Ryan Gosling is
not his cup of tea, clearly. The fall Guy came in at number
four. Number five is Challengers. I said, I don't have any desire
to see the movies, just not for me. It's not directed to me.
I guess it's still doing moderately. Well, it's done seventy eight million
worldwide. Let me see the budget on this. Yeah, that couldn't have
cost that much to make. Yeah, No, fifty five million, so
it's it's making money at this point. Yeah, I would have seen because
they didn't spend a lot on advertisements, that's for sure. We reviewed that
this past weekend on the legendary Saturday and Night s of the Nerd Around Table,
and it is definitely not a film we want to seek for us at
all. Okay, that's what I thought. Coming in at number six is
Back to Black. Anybody know what that was? An Amy Winehouse film?
Oh? Okay, I may check that out eventually Tarot at number seven.
Number eight Godzilla x Kong the New Empire is still hanging around. Well,
there's not a lot of competition, so yeah, it's easy for it to
stay in the top ten. It's grossed five hundred and sixty three million worldwide.
But this has to be repeat viewing. No one is going to see
it for the first time this past weekend, I guess. So it's been
out eight weeks. I mean that's a fair assumption at this point. Number
nine The Blue Angels, it was only in two hundred and twenty seven theaters
but a gross one point four million, and number ten still hanging around.
Civil War gross one one million, for a total of sixty seven million domestically
and one hundred and eleven million overall. I can't remember what the budget is,
but I know it's it's made its money back. So child watched the
TV at home this past week and I think it was the streaming weekend.
Yeah, Civil War Batchet was fifteen million, so it too is making money
as well. This weekend, the crew is supposed to go see Furiosa together.
Yes Friday. I don't know, Stephan, are you going? Yes,
he's going The hell you talking. I'm asking him. I don't know.
He has no choice. I'm going, okay, Marky, you going
yeah, I'm in. Okay, I'm in. I'm gonna start snoring,
but I'm in. No, you're going to take your old man nap during
the day next to in the ribs. Okay, start to hear you snore.
I did watch Fury Road again just to bring myself up to date on
the character. I still didn't like the movie. I thought visually it was
fantastic. The storyline just didn't. It just didn't do it for me.
It didn't make any sense. I'm sorry. Apart from the visual thing,
which is the entire movie, you're for it. No, I like the
visual the world that it built and created that the existed in. I didn't
buy Tom Hardy as mad Max. That's part of it. He wasn't really
the focus of it, and that disappointed me too. I'll tell you.
When I first saw that movie, it reminded me of The Wolf of Wall
Street, which is I can't believe this is something made by a guy at
that age, because it's exhausting me just to watch it. And maybe that's
part of it. Mark, I think you hit a good point where it's
not Mad Max's story. It's not about Max. It's a part of well,
he's part of the story. He's dealing with his own demons. But
the central figure is obviously Furiosa and her character arc. There is no Max
character arc. No. I respect whatever George Miller does. He's the director
and he's he's the former doctor who made Mad Max way back in what nineteen
seventy nine. I trust him, but I would like to see more of
the actual Mad Max. But what do you do? Since you know mel
Gibson's kind of radioactive at this point, it didn't have to be mel Gibson.
I think you could have structured that story and also cast it in a
way which was more consistent. Because when you have Mad Max the big letters
than Fury Road, I'm thinking it's going to be about Mad Max. It
starts out about Mad Max, and then you realize, no, it's Furiosa's
story, Fury Road, Furiosa's road. Now, if they would have cast
a grizzled old mel Gibson could have worked. That could have been his his
comeback. But and that's the thing they told it. It's almost like they
rebooted the series without rebooting the series. It took place I guess sometime between
Beyond a Road Warrior and Beyond Thunderdome because they recreate the scene in which the
Interceptor is taken out at the at the beginning of the movie. So I
understood where in the timeline it was. But I think it would have worked
that they didn't try to tell that story. They told a completely new story
with an older Max. Even Mel Gibson, I would have been fine with
that. It's it's an apocalypse, it's dystopian. He doesn't have to be
a young Max anymore, like they did with Sylvester Stallone. And what was
the movie the most recent he did, Oh that stupid one where he was
a superhero. No, no, no, no, it's I guess it
was Rambo Rambo Part seven. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
John Rambo. Yeah that was Yeah, that was horrified. Yeah. It's
okay to have the star age near the end of their life and get to
tell the story from that vantage point. I would have been okay with that.
But and I like, I really do like Tom Hardy's an actor.
I just didn't like him as Mad Max. Now he really didn't nail it
and that's the guy who you look at all the things he's done and you
think he can do anything. How could he possibly have whifted on Mad Max.
I don't think it was his fault actually, because he was performing as
required, he did the script. He I think you put this on George
Miller for wanting to kind of shift away from the Max character, which everybody
wants to see right right, which means we're going to see what on Friday.
We're gonna go and see Furiosa. So no Max, no Max,
No, this is Furiosa. And from my understanding, he got a seven
minute standing applause at the cons which is which is a bunch of uptight you
know, draws in a bunch reviewers who were standing on their feet applauding it
how good it was story, action, and of course the gorgeous cinematography.
You will be engrossed. Bo okay, all right, as long as you're
buying the food too. The hell it's lated with mo Kelly. We have
to turn this co. We have to talk about Diddy's apology and everything wrong
with it, and I do mean everything. I am six forty life everywhere
in the I Heeartradio Apple, You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand
from KFI AM six forty. And we told you about Diddy before the rest
of the world told you about Diddy. We told you about his predilection for
violence, before the world told you about his issues, before the video came
out. We told you now that the video is out. I say it's
probably one of many. But because of that video, the conversation has changed
on some level. It forced Ditty to respond, and he responded with this
apology. Just in case you haven't heard it. I think I need to
play it to bring everyone up to date, so we're all at the same
starting point. It's so difficult to reflect on the darkest times in your life.
You gotta do that. I was grawed up. I mean, I
hit rock bottom, but I make no excuses. My behavior on that video
is inexcusable. I take full responsibility for my actions in that video. Disgusted.
I was disgusted then when I did it. I'm disgusted now and went
and I saw our professional help God to go into therapy and going to rehab.
Had to ask God for his mercy and grace. I'm so sorry,
but I'm committed to be a better mansit every day. I'm not asking for
forgiveness. I'm truly sorry. Okay, HEREM just general basic observation. Sai.
I'm gonna bring in to Alla sharp as well. He didn't apologize directly
to Cassie Ventura because when he says that video, there's only one video in
question, is Cassie Ventura. He says that he makes no excuses and he
takes full responsibility. That is a lie because every day up until this video
was released his apology video, he had denied Cassie's allegations, said that she
was out for money. So he is not in any way taking full responsibility.
You can't say you take full responsibility while also paying fifty thousand dollars for
that video to be buried. That's not taking full responsibility. And when he
used the apology video to talk about his dark journey, he went to some
dark places. He had gone to seek treatment, He went to rehab.
No one gets a damn about that. It's not about you, but he
made it about him. That's why he doesn't get it. It's insincere,
it's a lie, and it's a study in crisis pr at best. And
I don't think anyone should be fooled by it. And if you're supporting Diddy
or defending Didty, I think there's something wrong with you. This video has
pissed me off since the moment I saw it, because it's clear that he
is not sorry. He is sorry that he got caught because, as you
said, he had been denying this the whole time. You say you were
disgusted, then in you're discussed now where you discussed it at the alleged payment
that you made to hide it, without addressing the actual actual offense that was
committed in this video. You've actually done nothing good. You've done no no
justice to Cassie. You've done nothing for anyone who may have had won to
believe this young lady who then in turn said, oh well, you know,
we don't know what really happened, and who believed she was out for
money. You dogged her out and then this video comes out. Now you're
sorry. You're not actually sorry because this video is just directed to you and
I. It's not directed to her. You don't have to do a video
to apologize to her. That's a phone call, that's a beas, that's
something to her to put out this video that's a public apology because you're trying
to what just save your brand, You're trying to keep money in your pocket.
This is the height of disrespect. This is why the Me too movement
movement within the music industry is going full bore ahead because of this. This
is that thing that says, aha, I told you this was going on.
You didn't believe us. Here it is, and there are other accusers
related to Diddy. Of course, he didn't make any acknowledgement of them either.
He was making an apology because of what was seen in the video,
allegedly without being specific as to what in the video or who was in the
video. I can't take him seriously because it denies all his actions up until
this point. If you were to say, hey, I had a conversation
with Cassie the other day because she deserved to have a personal apology, and
I might have looked at this just a little bit differently. But since he
paid, I'm just throwing a number out there. Let's say he paid fifteen
million dollars for Cassie to remain quiet, not get an apology, but further
slander her name. Says to me, you are far worse than anything depicted
in this apology video. You didn't hit rock bottom, you didn't seek out
any type of forgiveness, or you're not necessarily trying to be a better person.
You're the exact g dam person you worried yesterday. The only thing that's
different now is you realize that you can't deny the video anymore. Beyond that,
there is something to be said about people who now even still want to
deny the Well, there was people like this, it's Cgi, it's Ai,
people who say, ah, but what about there's still the but what
about? And still those who want to victim blame Cassie, And there's a
lot to be said about them. Oh, there's more to say. In
fact, we're going to carry this over to the next segment. There is
more to say about not only Diddy, but the environment which allowed Diddy to
thrive, and also the the excuse makers in the wake of this video,
which is only proving our point where you don't care about Cassie. You're not
trying to protect Cassie, You're trying to protect Ditty and that's all together sick.
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from KFI AM six forty.
Latam Latam Latam latafim six forty. It's The Later with Mo Kelly Live
Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. We're going to continue our conversation regarding Diddy his
recent apology earlier today. I'm gonna play it again so you can hear it
because we've been commenting around it. But just for reference sake, he doesn't
mention Cassie's name. He doesn't mention specifically what he did. He doesn't acknowledge
that there are other accusers who've come forward. He doesn't acknowledge that he denied
Cassie and said that she was making this up, that she was out for
money up until this point through his lawyers and publicists, he says that he
was sympathy chasing. I would say he was talking about how he's in a
dark place, how he went to rehab, he had to get help.
He said he was effed up. Yeah, except taking full responsibility. He
said he took full responsibility. But he does acknowledge that he paid to have
the video buried and so forth. But here is his apology again. It's
so difficult to reflect on the darkest times in your life. Sometimes you just
want to do that. I was far up still, I mean, I
had rock bottom doubt it that. I make no excuses. You're making them,
not behavior on that video. It's inexcusable. I take full responsibility for
my ashes in that video. The woy din't you try to bury disgusted?
I am too. I was disgusted then when I did it. I'm disgusting
now now that is a lie, a complete lie. When and I saw
that professional help. When last night I had to go into therapy, we're
going to rehab. Oh it's about you now had to asked God for his
mercy and grace because you're the victim, not Cassier any of the other accusers.
Grand pause for dramatic effects. I'm so sorry. No you're not.
You wouldn't even say her name. But I'm committed to be a better mansion
every day. Oh so you won't be the woman every single day forgiveness.
I'm truly sorry. It's not a good actor, not a good actor at
all. Tulla. I look at this one way. I think of it
as a guy who worked in the business. I think of it as a
guy because we're at the exact same age. We're days apart in age,
and we worked contemporaries during the same time in the business. So I look
at it one way, but I don't look at it as a father of
a daughter. Oh trust and believe. When I saw the video, all
I could think about is is how would I react if that was my daughter
in that video? And I think it's things like that that upset me so
much. When I looked on social media and I saw all of the but
whatabouts and all of those who I thought I knew, people I thought I
knew trying to make excuses and trying to say, oh, you know,
you guys are being too hard on him. He's trying to be better,
he's apologizing, And to me, that's the type of lie that kept R.
Kelly and what he was doing to young women and even allegedly some young
men going for so long. It is what allowed the likes of a Harvey
Weinstein to perpetrate what he was doing for so long when women were coming forward,
when women were coming forward against Bill Cosby and no one was believing him.
Is because of that, and that is what bothers me the most.
This culture, this thing that happens with entertainment where you want to first blame
the victim and believe because you look up to because you were vere, because
you're a fan. It is almost impossible for you to see them who they
are and you don't know these people. But this is even after the video.
We're not having a conversation as the abstract where you have her account and
you have his account and you're not exactly who you want to believe because there's
no concrete evidence in front of you. And then you have the video and
the truth that he paid to bury the video. It's like, there's nothing
more to this. This is this is from today. The videos day and
a half old. Now this is from this morning. And I'm like,
oh, this is a problem. This is a real problem that people are
so willing to want to want to assign blame to a woman first. And
this is again why more people don't come out. If you're not going to
be believed, you're you're gonna have a finger point in You're gonna be destroyed,
and your credibility is gonna be destroyed. It it makes it harder for
those who do have the truth to come forward. And I get it.
There's been a whole pushback against me too movement where there are some who just
came out and they're saying, these women just want revenge. Okay, okay,
you're saying that these women who are saying that they were victimized want revenge.
And I just sometimes I have to look at that and say, I
don't care how much time has gone by. If something is egregious as what
many of these women have claimed happened to you, would you not live and
every day wanting your revenge? And when you get that opportunity to get it,
don't you want to carry it out to the fullest. But not only
that, Let's talk about the specifics of Cassie's allegations. Her allegations included that
Puffy frequently threatened her life. Puffy Diddy whatever you want to call him,
had blown up some other guy's car. There was a real threat, ongoing
threat. Obviously, there was a threat of violence within the relationship, but
over and above and beyond just the physical abuse of mortality, of putting her
life in mortal danger with Ditty. And I'm not going to get into some
of the other rumors and any window out there regarding other people who dated Diddy,
but I will say this, and we had talked about this when this
story at first had first broke broken, that the threat of violence was real.
We're not talking about Bill Cosby possibly ruined your career. We're talking about
someone who might have you killed. Big difference. So you may not come
forward then, but you may come forward seven eight years later when an opportunity
or a law presents itself to give you that chance. And here's something else
we told you this was coming. It's now here. I'm gonna tell you
where all this is going. There're gonna be more videos, They're gonna be
more women who are gonna come forward because of this, and they're gonna be
more denials. Why Because it was true with Bill Cosby, it was true
with R. Kelly, it wasn't ever just one person. It was true
with Harvey Weinstein, it was never just one person. And you And what
did I say then? And I'll say it now. All this, one
hundred percent of this has to be untrue for Dinny to be innocent, Well,
we already got a video, so that's not true. We know that
he's a serial abuser. And also what this does not talk about, but
it's in Cassie's lawsuit, the precipitating event which happened prior to what we saw
in the video. She was leaving the hotel room because he gave her a
black eye. I punched her in the face in the moments prior to that
video. She was trying to get out. She was already she had already
been beaten that day. And there's no talent. How many other beatings which
weren't on video, I don't know, ten twenty, I don't know how
many. We have to assume there are plenty, because if a man is
willing to do that in plain view of a camera in a public space in
a hotel, well, we know what he was doing. We can only
imagine what he was doing behind closed doors. You're listening to Later with Moe
Kelly on demand from KFI AM six forty before we get out of here.
I think most people have fond memories, not all, but most people have
fond memories of their mother. We had Mother's Day not too recently or relatively
recently, and I understand people can have complicated relationships with mothers and complicated memories.
But I tend to think we all can agree on one thing. Don't
take your mother to the strip club with you. She's probably not the best
road dog in that regard. I mean that Wiz Khalifa, who's a rapper.
You've recently sat down for an interview with Jennifer Hudson on her daytime television
show, and it seems that Wiz Khalifa is not of the same mind as
you, me and everyone else. I don't know if this is Oedipus complex,
but it's right next door. And Mother's say, just passed, So
you got you do anything special with your mom? My mom Mother's day every
day for my mom. Pech's a superstar. That's her name. Everybody know
her as Peach. If you meet her, you'll fall in love with her.
So every day it's her day. What's the best fun y'all ever had
hanging out? Man, Me and my mom do everything together. We go
to strip club together. We went to Mexico, Mama, Yeah we went
to together. Yeah, we do everything like. That's not relationship. I
don't I don't love the y'all's relationship. There's something wrong with that. I
have never in my life thought of strip club and mother in the same sentence,
much less at the same time, same location. You would think strip
club inspires certain chemical reactions inside of you, and mother kills all those chemical
reactions inside of you. I don't want to think of table dance and mom
in the same headspace ever, Norman Bates, Please don't. I don't know.
It's like usually I would say, if it works for you, it
works for you. No, there's something wrong with that. I'm being judgmental
now, okay, eh, ooh ooh bold stand to take your You're against
going to strip clubs with your mom? Yes, I'm I wonder if she,
if a mom, would nag you if she didn't feel like you were
tipping properly. Well, that's not how you make it, Rain. I
want to know. I want to know how you even broach that subject.
Honey, where are you going tonight? Me and the fellas want to go
to the strip club? Oh? Can I come? Sure? Why not?
No? Did you wash your hands when you came back from the champagne
room? So every day it's her day. What's the best fun y'all ever
had? Hanging out? Man? Me and my mom do everything together.
We go to strip club together. We went to Mexico. Wait it,
strip club in Mexico are not comparable? Okay, Like they're running Outlas,
We went to the strip club, We went to the grocery store, then
we went to Disneyland. Then we went to Mexico. You should have stopped
at strip club. There's really nothing to say after strip club. Man,
Me and my mom do everything together. We go to strip club together,
We went to Mexico. No, that's not something you cheer. That's not
said. You don't say, go mom on that. You say, what's
wrong with you? Son? The follow up question is isn't it uncomfortable to
have your mother at a strip club with you? That's not a bonding experience.
I thought the follow up question should be have you tried going to Amsterdam
with your mom? That doesn't seem as weird if you're going there just for
the drugs. Now, if you're trying to go to the red light district,
that might be kind of weird. It is a package deal, I'm
afraid. Oh it is okay. Well, I've never been. I've only
heard of course. Of course, of course, nobody's putting me on a
polygraph here. No, if that's your story, I'll buy it. I've
done some stuff in my day, of course, and I will claim all
the stuff that I've done I'm not claiming that I've never done that. The
prosecution rest. Speaking of resting, have you noticed how quiet Tawala and Stefan
are, I'll say crickets. It's almost like they don't want to attention to
themselves because they don't want to have to answer that question. The man,
me and my mom do everything together. We go to strip Cloud together.
Stephan has not set a p not a word. Twala, not a word.
Man, Me and my mom do everything together. We go to strip
Cloud together. No, I will say this. Some say no, I
will say this. Today is my mother's birthday. Happy birthday, Mom,
thank you for being an art and supporter of the lad with Kelly. We
will not be going to the strip off, I promise being my mom will
not be going to make it rain. But love you, mama, Thank
you for bringing me into this world. Yeah no, no, no,
no, them saying your mother absolutely as far as celebrating her birthday, Yeah
no, no, I'm saying no to the strip clap. Yeah, that's
that's That's never been something I've been like, Hey, mom, want to
go to Peanuts with me? Oh? Well, have you noticed this stuff?
Still said a word. He's shaking I'm just saying that, like an
obvious separation of lives right there. It shouldn't be. Not for wes Kalif
apparently not. I've never heard that in my life and then go on national
television and brag about it. Brag, not mention it, but brag about
it. Man, me and my mom do everything together. We go to
strip club together. He started there. He need to like build up to
us. Man, we go to the park together, we go grocery shop
together, we'll go to the museum every once in a while, we'll end
up at the strip club. No, no, no, he started with
the strip club, like that's the top of the list, that's most important.
That's what he probably did on Mother's Day. Man, me and my
mom do everything together. We go to strip club together. We went to
Mexico and went to the strip club in Mexico. Honestly, what mom doesn't
love a nice lap dance? Come on, I actually have a friend who
took her daughter to the strip club with her. Like when she goes to
the strip club, she takes her daughter. Soon as her daughter turned twenty
one, she started taking her to the strip club with her. Look,
this is something wrong with you. Folks, they's something wrong with that is
weird. Something wrong with you, that's weird. K if I AM six
