The Gossip Table Spreads Lies About Anne Hathaway Cancer Event “Demands”

The ghastly VH1 train wreck called “The Gossip Table” messed up yet again on Thursday, somehow making some already horrendous In Touch reporting about Anne Hathaway even worse.

The hooting, howling and poorly informed panelists, who spent more time on their Halloween costumes than checking facts, first regurgitated the false tabloid report about the actress allegedly making “diva” demands at the recent Pink Party cancer research benefit in Santa Monica.

Hathaway supposedly had “her team” tell organizers that no one was to approach her, take photographs, or even discuss the cause with her, say the panelists.

This is 100 percent false.

But the “Gossip Table” crew takes the In Touch story and runs with it, because gullibility is among their most obvious qualities.

One of the confused participants, a self-described “reporter” who works for an outlet that spreads tasteless inaccuracies, took great offense to Hathaway’s alleged requests.

“It really does leave a bad taste in my mouth, and it makes me not even want to interview her next time,” says the “reporter” who was not at the event and has no clue what happened.

Well, Gossip Cop actually took the time to look into the story, instead of believing what In Touch (of all places) says.

First, a rep for Hathaway tells Gossip Cop, “Anne never ever would make those demands and its so unfair to do this to her when the event itself was so lovely and she was so happy to be apart of it.”

Even more tellingly, an official with the event was bewildered by the ridiculous In Touch and “Gossip Table” allegations.

“I can tell you that Anne was absolutely lovely, genuine and kind to everyone who attended The Pink Party,” the organizer tells Gossip Cop, adding that Hathaway “gave one of the most heartfelt speeches” in the event’s history and calling her “an absolute delight.”

“These accusations are false and cruel and it’s truly a shame when both Anne and the event were so wonderful,” we’re told.

Maybe once their Halloween fun ends, “The Gossip Table” crew can wear dunce caps for the next episode.

Robert Pattinson Fifty Shades Rumor Reheated by Clueless Gossip Table Crew

Truth rating: 0

“The Gossip Table” has no real Robert Pattinson sources, so on Tuesday the show’s rumor mongers retreated to their tried-and-true method of saying a bunch of stuff without saying anything at all.

“We broke the news yesterday that Charlie Hunnam has dropped out of Fifty Shades of Grey,” declared one of the panelists, mispronouncing the actor’s name and oblivious to the fact that the “news” was two days old.

At that point, the group delved into the question of who might replace Hunnam as Christian Grey — and Pattinson was named first.

“Sources are telling ‘The Gossip Table’ that Rob might slip into that spot,” said a second different seat-filler, who works for an outlet that makes up Pattinson stories.

But “sources” also tell this same blogger, “Maybe Rob doesn’t want to be connected with another big blockbuster franchise trilogy, and that he’s been trying to kind of get away from Twilight.”

Wow, that’s the exact opposite!

Then the original panelist leaps in to say that his “sources” suggest that the franchise nature of Fifty Shades is “exactly the reason that Rob would like to do this… if any movie is going to take away that mantra of being a teen vampire, it’s something maybe as big as this.”

Translation:  THE SHOW’S PANELISTS HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA, SO THEY’RE JUST GOING TO SAY ANYTHING.

Again, it’s “The Gossip Table” way!

(Apparently, so is butchering the names of famous people — a panelist mispronounces “Ian Somerhalder” later in the segment.)

So what’s actually going on?

We’re told Pattinson is NOT doing Fifty Shades of Grey.

Obviously, the re-casting news is going to be big, and a lot of actors have been floated for the role.

Gossip Cop will have updates when there’s actual news to report — rather than going on television and blindly speculating.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Do NOT Want Spinoff, Despite Gossip Table Report

Truth rating: 0

“The Gossip Table” continues to misinform viewers about the Kardashian family.

On Monday, the professional speculators interpreted Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s recent public appearances as evidence that they could be “angling for their own spinoff” from “Keeping Up with the Kardashians.”

Apparently, because the couple has been photographed at events, it means they’re going for a new show.

Oh, and for additional support, “The Gossip Table” mentions that Kardashian wants a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and notes West’s high-profile interview with Jimmy Kimmel.

“People want to see what this couple is all about,” explains a panelist for “The Gossip Table.”

Wow, what a scoop!

Except the fact that people are curious about Kardashian and West has nothing to do with the couple actually planning a spinoff reality show.

A source close to the situation tells Gossip Cop there’s NO truth to the spinoff rumor.
