Matt Rogers talks bringing zeitgeisty Las Culturistas Awards to TV for the 1st time
Enter the Las Culturistas Culture Awards, now in its fifth year — and coming to television for the first time Tuesday. Conceived by comedians and longtime friends Bowen Yang ('Saturday Night Live') and Matt Rogers ('I Love That For You') and an outgrowth of their 'Las Culturistas' podcast, this year's edition was taped in July and will air on Bravo.
'The thing that's cohesive about Bravo and our brand is the fact that we center fun and that kind of made it a really natural home for us,' Rogers said recently over Zoom.
These awards give flowers to a variety of genres. Categories this year include most iconic building or structure (Lumon headquarters from 'Severance' is nominated), best title for the next 'Bridget Jones' ('Bridget Jones to Terabithia' is a contender) and the Lindsay Lohan in 'Parent Trap' award for twins excellence (Michael B. Jordan gets a nod for 'Sinners').
Rogers' favorite? 'They're all my babies,' he said, but is most proud of best 'Batman' woman. One of the nominees: Robyn — yes, not Robin. 'It's the Riddler's assistant,' joked Rogers. 'Robyn scenes were cut from the movie.' The awards aren't even limited to work from the past year — the nonexistent Robyn's competitors include both Michelle Pfeiffer and Anne Hathaway's portrayal of Catwoman.
The awards are 'one of the most fun things we do every year,' Rogers said. The whole point is to remind people that Hollywood — and especially awards shows — are not that serious.
Rogers spoke with The Associated Press about the Las Culturistas Culture Awards, the podcast and keeping up with pop culture. This interview has been edited for clarity and brevity.
AP: Why did you and Bowen start the Las Culturistas Culture Awards?
ROGERS: I don't think there's anything funnier than people who take themselves too seriously. And being hosts of a pop culture podcast in which we talk about the entertainment industry quite frequently, we see it as an opportunity to empower everyone to drop their shoulders a little bit. Bowen was just nominated for his fifth (chance at an) Emmy. It still means something, even though we're in the process of satirizing it, which says everything you need to know about the place that this holds in our culture.
AP: Do you ever find it hard to keep up with everything that's popping in the zeitgeist?
ROGERS: Absolutely. We talk about this a lot on the show. The death of monoculture is a very real thing, so we are not all watching the same stuff. It would be impossible to cover everything that everyone wants us to cover. For example, I can't really do 'Love Island.' The episodes are just a little too long and, also, it's not my flavor of reality show. That doesn't mean that l don't think it's incredible for people that want to watch it. I am an Ariana Madix superfan and supporter. Having said that, if we're talking about something on 'Las Culturistas,' it is honest. I would never want to just cram for the podcast. If you hear us talking about it, it's something we're actually encountering.
AP: As you and Bowen each become busier with your individual careers, is there a scenario where you would end the podcast? (Yang did take a break in 2023 to focus on his mental health.)
ROGERS: The podcast is not hard to do. Maybe if it were, or if we felt like at a certain point it was too exposing, we would maybe take a break. But the fact is, we don't feel that way. If it was ever a thing of like, 'Hey, we need to wind it back,' that probably means we would book less guests and just talk to each other. The energy expense is when we're getting ready to host someone that we love or that we wanna make sure has a good time. It's an hour or whatever of me talking to my friend.
AP: Why do you think there are so many podcasts out there?
ROGERS: It's a celebration of someone's interests. I always say if you have an interest, you can find 15 podcasts about that thing no matter what it is. I think what makes people excited about this world is it's a place to talk and deep dive or be too granular and too niche about what you love.
AP: What was the original goal for 'Las Culturistas' when you started back in 2016? You've gone on to have Michelle Obama, Lady Gaga, Sarah Jessica Parker and Chappell Roan as guests.
ROGERS: The podcast started with me and Bowen sitting behind mics, very lo-fi at our friend's apartment. A mattress was in the window to keep the sound out. It was just a playdate for me and Bowen. It wasn't even weekly in the very beginning. It was very haphazard. The sentence, 'Oh, we owe them an episode,' was uttered a lot. Then suddenly it became this thing. And we realized it was really not only helping us, but it was something we enjoyed.

34 Wildly Cringe-Worthy Celeb Moments
At the 2009 MTV VMAs, Lil Mama shocked everyone when she got up onstage and started dancing during Jay-Z and Alicia Keys' performance. Apparently, it was her grandma's birthday, so she was in a celebratory mood. "I'm from New York City. So when the song [kicked] up... I got excited, and I went up there," she later said, noting that she was sober. The video's hard to watch — Lil Mama kind of awkwardly walks up to the performers and dances a bit, then copies their ending pose. Oh, and this is after Beyoncé pulls her back, trying to stop her from going onstage. Speaking of the VMAs — when accepting MTV's Video Vanguard Award, Katy Perry made some people cringe after giving a speech about the "noise" female artists deal with, joking about her period and bringing up criticisms after she cut her hair short. This might've been fine, and haircuts kind of pale in comparison to rampant sexual assault and intimidation in the music industry. Let's not forget that Perry is actively still working with Dr. Luke, who fellow star Kesha accused of rape (the two reached a settlement last year). In fact, Dr. Luke worked with Perry on her new song "Women's World," which is supposed to be an empowering feminist anthem. Though, this, too, ended up being a cringe moment for Perry, with fans near-universally panning the song and accompanying video as surface-level feminism as seen through the male gaze. Perry later claimed it was "satire." Madonna has had a lottttt of cringe moments. In one recent example, at one of Madonna's concerts, she spoke about her mother's death. She then began singing — and stopped to chastise someone in the audience for not paying enough attention to her. Pointing him out, she said, "Look at him. See, he's wearing like barely nothing. Him! The guy with the T-shirt and chains that looks like he wants to get f**ked right now." She continued, "I just want to point out that while I was singing my heart out about the loss of my mother he was looking around at the crowd … not at me. I'm just pointing out that I f**king pay attention, so you need to pay attention young man! You're going to destroy your ego, right now." At another concert, Madonna reportedly chastised a fan for sitting during the show, saying, "What are you doing sitting down over there?" Walking forward and apparently realizing the person was in a wheelchair, Madonna said, "Oh, okay. Politically incorrect. Sorry about that. I'm glad you're here." According to a fan, "There's a part where during the show she asks everyone to stand up. It's not about who's sitting/standing during the entire show. Just 1 section she asks for participation. And this time she embarrassed herself." Celebs can be super weird about activism in general, and I have to bring up a few more examples. Like, um, the time AnnaLynne McCord wrote a poem to Vladimir Putin about how things would be different if she were his mother. It's an odd response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, to say the least. I genuinely will never forget David Guetta's tribute to George Floyd, and not for a good reason. While livestreaming a DJ set for COVID relief, Guetta said he'd "made a special record in honor of George Floyd," adding "shoutout to his family" before playing an EDM mashup of Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech and the Hamster Dance song. He then started dancing. I don't know what it is with white celebrities and George Floyd, but Guetta was not the only one to do something weird. did Heather Morris (y'know, from Glee) take to Instagram to share an interpretive dance piece she'd choreographed in Floyd's honor? Similarly, Lili Reinhart made some fans cringe when she posted a nude photo on Instagram with a caption about Breonna Taylor. "Now that my sideboob has gotten your attention, Breonna Taylor's murderers have not been arrested," she wrote. "Demand justice." She later apologized, writing, "I've always tried to use my platform for good. And speak up about things that are important to me. I also can admit when I make a mistake and I made a mistake with my caption. It was never my intent to insult anyone and I'm truly sorry to those that were offended." She continued in a second tweet, "I've tried very hard to be honest on my IGTV lives that I'm still learning and trying to be better. But I understand that my caption came off as tone deaf. I truly had good intentions and did not think it through that it could come off as insensitive." Another cringe-worthy example of a celeb trying to do good — and disastrously failing — was when Alyssa Milano tweeted, "I'm trans. I'm a person of color. I'm an immigrant. I'm a lesbian. I'm a gay man. I'm the disabled. I'm everything." Milano — who is none of the above, quickly started receiving backlash. "I'm glad this tweet invoked conversation. I'm so sorry it offended some. I see you and hear you," she wrote after backlash. Another example? When Tom Hiddleston used his acceptance speech at the Golden Globes to talk about the impact his TV show had on aid workers in South Sudan, leading to some accusing him of trivializing the issue and having an inflated sense of importance. After backlash, Hiddleston apologized on Facebook, writing, "I just wanted to say…I completely agree that my speech at the Golden Globes last night was inelegantly expressed. In truth, I was very nervous, and my words came out wrong. Sincerely, my only intention was to salute the incredible bravery and courage of the men and women who work so tirelessly for UNICEF UK, Doctors Without Borders/ Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), and World Food Programme, and the children of South Sudan, who continue to find hope and joy in the most difficult conditions. I apologise that my nerves got the better of me." In another attempt at allyship, I guess, Mark Ruffalo once inexplicably tweeted that "I said a prayer the other day and when God answered me back she was a Black Woman." Look, I get it. Celebs are trying to say something important and profound. It always land. Like when Kelly Osbourne clearly thought she was making a powerful statement about the value of immigrants on The ended up suggesting immigrants are necessary because they clean toilets. After the controversy, Osbourne said she'd made a "poor choice of words" but said she would "not apologize for being racist as I am NOT." Later, she called the moment "the most cringe moment of my entire life" and "the worst thing I've ever done," clarifying she meant, "This whole country is built on immigrants, and if you stop people from coming into this country who do the jobs that make this country exist and thrive and flourish, who's going to do all the jobs that you don't want to do yourself?" I'm starting to think that celebs should sometimes quiet, y'know? Like, remember when Lena Dunham said that she wished she'd had an abortion? Speaking on her podcast about visiting a Planned Parenthood in Texas, she said she was asked to share her abortion story. "I sort of jumped. 'I haven't had an abortion.' ... I wanted to make it really clear to her that as much as I was going out and fighting for other women's options, I myself had never had an abortion. And I realized then that even I was carrying within myself stigma around this issue. ... It was an important moment for me then to realize that I had internalized some of what society was throwing at us. And I had to put it in the garbage." She continued, "Now I can say that I still haven't had an abortion, but I wish I had." After backlash, Dunham apologized, saying, "I truly hope a distasteful joke on my part won't diminish the amazing work of all the women who participated. ... I would never, ever intentionally trivialize the emotional and physical challenges of terminating a pregnancy.' I mean, celebrities aren't necessarily the most educated on current events, social issues, and history. Remember when a fan asked Bebe Rexha where she'd go if she could time travel, and Rexha replied, "I would go to Paris 1940s"? For context, Paris was under Nazi occupation in the 1940s. When people pointed this out, Rexha wrote, "Girl I failed history. I just googled it." Moving on from one of the most embarrassing social media fails to me, Mia Farrow once posted a happy birthday message to her daughter Quincy, accompanied by a photo. Innocent enough, right? Except she forgot to crop the photo and posted it with the search bar visible. To find the photo, she'd searched "Mia Farrow and her black children." In another online fail, back in 2014, Rita Ora tweeted that she'd release new music if she got 100,000 retweets. It only got 2,000 retweets, and Ora deleted the tweet. She then tweeted, "By the way my Twitter got hacked somebody is threatening to release new music I've worked really hard on. Nothing comes out until I'm ready." Jim Carrey's two-minute-long video declaring his love for Emma Stone is definitely one of the more bizarre things I've seen a celebrity do, and whether or not he was joking, it had everyone cringing. In the video, Carrey says, "If I were a lot younger, I would marry you, and we would have chubby little freckle-faced kids. We'd laugh all day long and go camping, play Yahtzee, tell ghost stories by the fire. And the sex..." He trailed off, clearly thinking about sex with Emma Stone. Emma took the video in stride, later saying of the video, "Right before that video came out, we were at the MTV Movie Awards. Jason Sudeikis hosted … There was like five of us, and we just went on this tangent of talking nice behind Jim Carrey's back. Jason was talking about how great [Carrey] was when he went to Saturday Night Live and how he was just like a comedic genius. Everyone was kind of weighing in, like 'He's the best. He's amazing.' And so when [the video] happened, we all kind of talked to each other like, 'Weird, that was the guy we were lauding for, like, 30 minutes.' Have you ever done that? Just all sat around a table saying nice things about one person? It was the greatest thing. You walk away, and you were just like, That felt so good, to talk about how wonderful someone is." Ben Affleck made headlines in 2021 after a woman named Nivine Jay posted a TikTok claiming she had matched with Affleck on Raya but unmatched him because she thought his profile was fake. She then alleged that Affleck had reached out to her on Instagram, sending her a video in which he said, "Nivine, why did you unmatch me? It's me!" This might all seem a little she posted the video Affleck sent. Most of us remember when Adam Levine got in hot water in 2022 after multiple women came forward with flirty messages he had sent them — even though he's married. "Holy f–k. Holy f–king f–k. That body of yours is absurd," he allegedly wrote in several messages. "F–kkkkkkkkk I'd do anything for it," he wrote in another. Fans reposted the comments, captioning them with their own scenarios like "Me when I see a Klondike Bar." But while we may remember the memes, I feel like one of the most cringe-worthy parts of this got overlooked: that Levine's wife, Behati Prinsloo, was pregnant at the time, and Levine apparently wanted to name their child after one of the women he was DMing, Sumner Stroh. Stroh (who claimed the two had an affair) shared an alleged DM from Levine reading, "Ok serious question. I'm having another baby and if it's [a] boy I really wanna name it Sumner. You ok with that? DEAD serious." Levine later released a statement admitting to using "poor judgment in speaking with anyone other than my wife in ANY kind of flirtatious manner." However, he denied having an affair. 'I did not have an affair, nevertheless, I crossed the line during a regrettable period of my life. In certain instances it became inappropriate.' I will personally never forget James Corden's infamous AMA (Reddit's "Ask Me Anything," where fans can, well, ask the celeb anything). Signing on to promote Carpool Karaoke, Corden was flooded with insults and questions regarding claims about his staff's pay, with the most well-known being a comment from someone claiming to have sat next to Corden at a restaurant and calling him "a massively entitled c*** who yelled and treated the waitstaff like shit." The other comments were so negative that he only answered three before signing off. Grimes certainly has her fair share of cringe moments, but I think the worst has got to be when she was photographed in this wild futuristic outfit reading The Community Manifesto after splitting from Elon Musk. She later claimed she'd done it to troll paparazzi and "yield the most onion-ish possible headline." certainly succeeded. The New York Post headline was "Grimes seen reading Karl Marx following split with world's richest man Elon Musk." Although, I think I may actually have found an even more cringe-worthy paparazzi shot: when Bradley Cooper was photographed with then-girlfriend Suki Waterhouse reading Lolita in a park. Cooper was 38 at the time, while Waterhouse was 21. There are about a million cringe-worthy Logan Paul moments to choose from — which means some of the smaller ones get overlooked. Like the time he promoted Lunchly (a similar product to Lunchables, co-created by Paul) while his wife was giving birth. "I turned the hospital room into a vibe," he captioned a Snapchat story of his fiancé. The post showed the room decorated with string lights and stocked with the kid's lunch product, zooming in on a pack. Because there's nothing that makes the birth of your child more special than self-promo. Later, he tweeted, "unfortunately i'm just now seeing what's happening with the conflict and will pause on tomorrow's announcement. i pray for everyone's safety 🙏🏾" In yet another embarrassing social media snafu, Charli D'Amelio spotted #HereForCharli trending on Twitter in 2021 and tweeted, "Oh my goodness, you are all so sweet to me. You have no idea how much your kind words warm my heart i am so lucky to have you all by my side!! I love you bebs." However, she quickly deleted the tweet when fans pointed out the hashtag was actually for Charli XCX, whose friend, the musician and producer, Sophie, died suddenly. Zac Efron was also feeling grateful at an inappropriate time. On Martin Luther King Jr. Day in 2016, Zac Efron tweeted out a photo of himself captioned: "I'm grateful for a couple things today: Martin Luther King Jr. & 10 million followers on IG." In response to backlash over seemingly equating MLK's contributions with milestones in Instagram followers, Efron deleted the tweet and wrote, "I have nothing but the greatest admiration & respect for MLK. My last post was insensitive & I apologize to anyone who I offended. So sorry." When Bow Wow flexed his luxurious travel plans on Instagram, it seemed like a pretty regular celeb post, complete with a photo of a private jet and the caption, "Travel day. NYC press run for Growing Up Hip Hop. Lets gooo." However, he was embarrassingly exposed when a Twitter user posted a photo of Bow Wow flying commercial, writing, "So this guy lil Bow Wow is on my flight to NY but on Instagram he posted a picture of a private jet captioned 'traveling to NY today.'" And am I the only one who thought Alec Baldwin's posting a photo of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins as a "tribute" — a year after he held the gun that killed her — was super cringe-worthy? It was captioned "one year ago..." as if it was some kind of nostalgic TBT. It feels especially weird considering he was later charged with involuntary manslaughter for the killing (the case was later dismissed). One more social media example – when Kardashian hanger-on Foodgod, aka Jonathan Cheban, posted a story on Instagram asking, "Should I go live later?" and the answer was "no." How come no one but me seems to remember when CeeLo Green attempted a disastrous rebrand back in late 2016? He even released a song — "Fuck Me, I'm Famous" — as his alter ego "Gnarly Davidson." He then attended the 2017 Grammys as Gnarly, dressed in all-gold. He later claimed he wasn't at the Grammys, telling TMZ, "That's somebody else altogether, man," really committing to the bit. After releasing a second song about wanting to be with Beyoncé, Green apparently abandoned the Gnarly Davidson persona. Ariana Grande has a ton of tattoos, and it was no surprise when she got one as an homage to her song "7 Rings." She posted the tattoo — written in Japanese characters — online, and fans quickly pointed out her tattoo actually translated to a charcoal grill. Which is especially awkward considering Ari is vegan. In response to online mockery, she tweeted, 'Indeed, I left out 'つの指' which should have gone in between. It hurt like fuck n still looks tight. I wouldn't have lasted one more symbol lmao. But this spot also peels a ton and won't last so if I miss it enough I'll suffer thru the whole thing next time.' In another tweet, she wrote, 'Pls leave me and my tambourine grill alone. thank u.' She later had the tattoo "fixed," though it still didn't correctly translate to "7 Rings." And finally, this one's more straight-up embarrassing than cringe (and I truly feel for Fergie here), but I feel like too many of us have forgotten the moment Fergie peed her pants onstage in 2005. Fans snapped a photo, and it quickly circulated online. She later explained, "We were late for stage, driving down the freeway, it's Friday traffic ... get to the stage, we have to start right [into] the show. I'm running on and we jump and do 'Let's Get It Started', and I get crazy and I jump and I run across the stage and my adrenaline was going and gosh, I wish it didn't happen. It was so embarrassing!" What embarrassing or cringe-worthy celeb moment can you not forget? Let us know in the comments!

Happy Gilmore appeals to both MAGA and woke fans — and that's his genius
There's a danger in trying to pull too much hidden meaning from an Adam Sandler movie. For years, the comedian-turned-actor has starred in films that provide a few belly laughs ‒ at least for those of us with a certain sense of humor ‒ but not a lot of in-depth social commentary on the human condition. With Sandler, dating to his time as a "Saturday Night Live" cast member during the early 1990s, what you see is mostly what you get. With his style of comedy, you either love it or you don't. Except for the original "Happy Gilmore" and "The Wedding Singer," I find most of his movies unwatchable. Yet there was something about the original "Happy" movie, featuring a failed hockey player who turns into an irreverent golfing sensation, that inspired a cult following and compelled Hollywood to greenlight a sequel almost 30 years after the first movie's debut. After much more thought than a healthy person probably should give to such matters, I believe I've discovered why Happy Gilmore makes his fans happy: He's a character who appeals to both the woke- and the MAGA-oriented in our tribal society. If you remember any tidbits of the first movie, the MAGA side of Happy Gilmore's personality was easy to see, two decades before Donald Trump's first successful run for the presidency. As a hockey fan, Happy was a man's man. He had a short temper and a tendency for settling problems with his fists. He hated effeminate intellectual types, like the tax collector who was preparing to sell his grandmother's home at auction. If Trump says what a lot of people are thinking, Happy did what a lot of people would like to do ‒ either by taking a whack at those who annoyed him or tossing them through glass doors. Opinion: Jon Stewart warned comedians get 'sent away first.' Now it's happening. In the first movie, after discovering his talent for hitting long drives, Happy joined a professional golfing circuit, modeled after the real-life PGA Tour, then made a mockery of the sport's stuffy traditions and mannerisms. Parts of the story are very familiar. "Caddyshack" was another golfing movie that poked fun at the snobbery of the country club set and the decadent lives its members led. Happy and his followers in the first movie seem to identify strongly with the Make America Great Again crowd of modern-day politics, too. Happy's supporters at golf tournaments were bikers and other free-spirited individuals who delighted in following their Everyman hero's lead and defying rules and conventions aimed at ruining the common person's fun. Happy was Trump before Trump burst onto the political scene. That's not all, though: The Happy of the original movie was a pretty woke guy, too. Consider the people in his inner circle: There's his mentor, a Black former golfer. His caddy is a homeless person he meets at his first pro event. His main love interest is the smart and capable tour communications director, who is dismissed by chauvinistic men in her life. His role model is his elderly grandmother. Opinion: Ozzy didn't corrupt America's youth. He exposed the hypocrisy of their elders. Happy seems to see the value in people regardless of their gender, social status, color or age. While he is short-tempered and prone to violence, he also is quick to show forgiveness and compassion toward the less fortunate. That was the hidden genius of the first movie. Happy had traits that were relatable to people at both ends of our society's fragmented political spectrum. Die-hard conservatives and raging liberals alike could cherry-pick some of Happy's traits and claim him as their own. So how did this character development translate in "Happy Gilmore 2"? The new Happy, 30 years older and maybe somewhat wiser, hasn't mellowed all that much. He's still quick to use his fists to settle problems, or even toss those who bother him into a nearby lobster tank. He also has four sons who have grown into regular working Joes, all doing manual labor jobs and sharing their dad's pugilistic tendencies. "Money is for snobs," one of them declares early in the movie. Happy has a new live-in house guest − former pro golfer John Daly, an unabashed Trump supporter in real life, who plays himself in the movie. (Don't worry; there are plenty of other cameos from athletes, sportscasters and other celebrities to keep the surprises coming throughout the movie.) Opinion: I'm a PBS Kid at heart. Trump's cuts threaten what made me who I am today. Happy 2.0 still has qualities that should also endear him to liberals. His new caddy is played by Bad Bunny, a Hispanic singer who endorsed Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris in the 2024 election. His allies in the movie include the son of his Black golfing mentor from the first movie and a transgender woman. Happy spends a large portion of the movie trying to get his daughter into ballet school − in Paris, of all places − and he ends up defending some of the stodgy traditions he mocked in the first movie. In short, whether you're a liberal or a conservative, it's not hard to find parts of Happy's personality that fit your worldview. Whether that was by accident or design, it may explain why Hollywood thought movie fans would be willing to walk the course with Happy Gilmore again after all these years.

Bill Maher slams woke mob over Sydney Sweeney jeans ad controversy
HBO 'Real Time' host Bill Maher ripped into the woke mob for branding actress Sydney Sweeney a Nazi — all because she joked about having 'great jeans' in a new American Eagle ad. 'In other uncomfortable racial news, sad news, we found out this week that Sydney Sweeney is a Nazi,' the late night funny quipped Friday night. 'No she's not, but you've seen the ad … This a very important ad that we're seeing now, there she is dressed like Jay Leno in all blue denim.' HBO 'Real Time' host Bill Maher slammed the woke mob Friday for claiming actress Sydney Sweeney is a Nazi — because she boasted about having 'great jeans' in an American Eagle ad. AP 'And she talks about the fact that she has blue eyes and then says she has great jeans, you know, because she's wearing jeans!' goofed Maher, referring to the ad's pun of the word 'genes' made by the blonde-haired, blue-eyed 27-year-old Euphoria star. 'But according to the woke people this means she's a white supremacist.' Actress Sydney Sweeney shows off her 'great' jeans in American Eagle ad. American Eagle Then Maher landed a savage blow. 'It also doesn't help that her bra size is 36KKK and that the name she gave her tits is the 'Proud Boys,'' he said. 'I also like it's pretty funny that all the online social justice girls are like 'it's racist, there is no such thing as good genes. Right, and then you go on Tinder and swipe left on every bald guy.' American Eagle's stock rose more than 10% immediately after Sweeney's campaign launched July 23. The White Lotus actress has yet to respond to the backlash caused by the new 'Great Jeans' campaign.
