Jacob Elordi has blasted viewers’ “prudish” reaction to the Saltburn bathtub scene.

The scene sees Oliver Quick (Barry Keoghan) drink bathwater after he secretly watched Felix Catton (Elordi) touch himself in the tub.

This scene got people talking and left quite a many flabbergasted.

Appearing on Entertainment Weekly‘s Awardist podcast, Elordi said: “I actually think it shows me just how, I guess, prudish we are.”

“When I watch that, I just think there’s far more extreme things in cinema that I’ve seen, far more graphic,” the 28-year-old compared.

The star – who has witnessed “more alarming” moments in films – cannot understand why viewers do not have the same reaction when it comes to scenes packed with distressing violence.

Elordi added: “There’s more alarming things in the top 10 streamed remakes of crime documentaries on every streaming platform.”

“I think that’s much more alarming, the kind of horrible joy that we all get from watching children be mutilated. That’s what was interesting to me,” the Euphoria star said.

“I was like, ‘Here’s a piece of fiction with something just a little taboo,’ and that makes people’s skin crawl. It’s an interesting parallel,” he further mentioned.

Saltburn – which is about Oxford student Oliver becoming obsessed with his rich-and-aristocratic classmate Felix – was directed by Emerald Fennell.

Speaking about the bathtub scene in 2023, Fennell told Entertainment Weekly: “The bathtub was the first thing, the first image, that came to me.”

“It was a boy saying, ‘I wasn’t in love with him,’ and that same boy licking the bottom of a bathtub. So that was the very centre of the film for me, this kind of unreliable narrator, somebody who was clearly in the grips of extreme desire and who hasn’t yet come to terms with it or who has had to find another way of coming to terms with it or explain it,” she concluded.

Gene Simmons has a sweet tooth!

The KISS rocker opened up about his obsession with “cookies, chocolates, cake” but h has had to limit its consumption after decades of eating whatever he loved.

“When I’m on tour, it doesn’t matter,” he told Men’s Health Magazine.

“I’d eat cheesecake every day because I’m wearing 40 lb. of armour, 7-inch platform heels… You don’t have to do anything. Within two hours you will be exhausted. The amount of calories burned on stage, it’s like a heavy workout. So, I could eat anything,” the rock star said.

Gene also revealed he could take or leave even the fanciest savoury foods, but struggled to resist sweets of all kinds.

“I don’t really care if it’s pasta or shmasta, or foie gras and anything with a French name…I really don’t care,” he said.

The Forever rocker added, “I love cake. Cookies, chocolates, cake. It’s about as much fun as I can have with my pants on.”

However, Gene admitted, an ageing metabolism meant he could no longer eat sweets as often or as extravagantly as he used to.

“I’ve got to watch it. You know, my girlish figure and everything,” he said quirkily.

“And the older I get… I’m 76 now. The problem is your metabolism, it slows down like a tick-tock of an old clock. So, at 76, I can’t have as much as I like,” the Detroit Rock City hitmaker mentioned.

It seems the wider family network, including seniors like Queen Camilla and Kate Middleton actively played a part in making sure Andrew Mountbatten Windsor’s titles were removed.

Everything has been revealed by a well placed insider that is close to

According to their findings the two main players that had a hand in pushing this across the finish line was Queen Camilla and Kate Middleton.

The news has also been revealed by none other than a well placed palace source and they claim, “I would think the Queen had a hand in that.

Because to make anything move like this they added, “there would have been a push from Camilla and Catherine, and there was pressure from William, who would not want to inherit the headache.”

The insider even chimed in themselves and offered their own reaction to the news a hole when adding, “it was a family decision. It was quite strong, and I was quite proud when I heard it.”

In regards to the statement that announced the stripping of Andrew Mountbatten Windsor’s title, it came via the King as an official communication and reads, “His Majesty has today initiated a formal process to remove the Style, Titles and Honours of Prince Andrew.”

“Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. His lease on Royal Lodge has, to date, provided him with legal protection to continue in residence. Formal notice has now been served to surrender the lease and he will move to alternative private accommodation.”

“These censures are deemed necessary, notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him. Their Majesties wish to make clear that their thoughts and utmost sympathies have been, and will remain with, the victims and survivors of any and all forms of abuse.”
