Trust is our basic response to people and the things they tell us (Grice, 1975; Schwarz & Jalbert, 2020). If someone tells us something, we tend to believe they are doing their best to tell us the truth. If we walk into a store, we trust the prices listed are what we'll pay. We trust that the item inside the box is what's listed on the outside of the box.

Rogers says it was entirely Patterson's plan that her two children would not be present at the lunch. She made sure the children were away at McDonald's at the cinema by the time the lunch guests were arriving.

Mistress Isabelle Brooks stated in a recent interview that fans need to 'stop crucifying' her for her actions on RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 10, emphasizing her role in creating engaging television.

His tearful public appeals of "Tina come home, my arms are open" proved chillingly cynical as he spun an ever-widening tissue of lies to try to save himself.

"I was really hoping that the person from Joe's past who would get him once and for all would be the balcony sprite herself, Jenna Ortega."
