Ben Shapiro Gripes About Middle-Aged Celebs Acting Like 17-Year-Olds
HuffPost
In his rant against Taylor Swift, Jennifer Lopez and Theo Von, the podcast host also admitted he's been a "grumpy old man" since he was a teen.
Ben Shapiro found yet another thing to gripe about on Wednesday, and this time it was *checks notes* middle-aged celebrities.
In a bizarre, ageist rant that seemed like the audio equivalent of Grandpa Simpson shaking his fist at a cloud, the conservative podcaster accused celebrities of a certain age like Taylor Swift, Jennifer Lopez and comedian Theo Von of “masquerading as 17-year-olds.”
It started because Shapiro had a problem with J.Lo kissing both a man and a woman during a recent concert.
Although Shapiro admitted Lopez is an “amazing looking 55-year-old person,” he claimed the smooches were proof of “this thing that’s happening in our culture where a bunch of people are masquerading as 17-year-olds who are actually middle-aged.”
The 41-year-old Shapiro later admitted that he has been a “grumpy old man” since he was a teenager and apparently thought that gave him the gravitas to call out other people in or near his age bracket.
