Kaelee Overfield Is Caught Red-Handed
Plus Selena's mess, Shia's religion, and Shay's haircut.
Hello! Exciting update — we have an official review of Kylie Jenner’s Khy fashion line from friend of the newsy, Rachel!
According to Rach, who purchased the grey sweatsuit, the items are very comfy and high quality, making them worth the price tag, but when Kylie says oversized she means oversized.
Great to hear our girl has learned some things since the infamous Kylie Swim travesty. Still confused as to how this went from an “affordable luxury” brand to another celeb athleisure company, though. Like, girl, we’re good, Scott Disick has us covered!!
Selena speaks out on viral gossip sesh. After rogue internet lip readers had the world convinced that Selena revealed to Taylor Swift that Kylie Jenner intercepted a photo op between her and Timothee Chalamet during the Golden Globes, Selena attempted to squash the rumors by explaining that she was merely telling Taylor about two of her friends that had hooked up.
Okay. Then why is Keleigh Sperry audibly heard saying “with Timothee???” How many Timmy’s can a girl truly know, you know?
The dramz caused Sel to take her 15th social media hiatus of 2024 (before promptly returning half a day later), so she could focus on things that matter, like her romance with Remy the rat.
Travis Barker’s ex is out for blood. In a new podcast episode, Travis’s ex Shanna Moakler accuses Trav and Kourtney of “parental alienation” ranting about how she can’t offer the same lavish gifts and exciting experiences to her kids as their mega-star stepmom.
She should relax, though, because Kourtney is one of the poorest KarJenners. With $65M, she wouldn’t even be invited to Connor’s Waystar Royco charity ball.
50 cent is giving up sex. He has a new project in the works that is apparently so demanding, he has to practice abstinence in order to maintain his focus.
That’s also what I claim when I refuse to leave my room for weeks because I’m watching vintage seasons of The Challenge on Paramount+ — my work is too important!
Meanwhile, Shia Labeouf joins the cloth. Shia, Shia, Shiaaaaaaa. The actor is hatching plans to become a Catholic deacon after getting confirmed on NYE.
Why are rich people always so bored?? Is it like when you use a cheat on The Sims because you want to redecorate your Sim home, but then afterwards you don’t really know how to move forward in the game because there’s no incentive for your Sim to work or learn skills? So you turn to Simtology in order to regain your sense of purpose? Did I just think of a brilliant Sims Universe expansion pack??!!
Shay Mitchell steals Kris Jenner’s haircut. What was the reason?! I hope this is a wig lol. Ya’ll know how I feel about the short hair curse. Praying that Florence Pugh gets extensions, btw.
Kaelee Overfield is Caught Red-Handed
Resharing my interview with Kales_0, TikTok’s Lesbian Perez Hilton, for Byline.com!
In college, I had a childhood friend who went to a prestigious women’s university, where if you weren’t gay when you walked in, you probably would’ve had a taste of cherry ChapStick by the time you graduated.
One holiday weekend, over margaritas at the only hometown bar that stayed open past 8, she conspiratorially showed me a photo of a posterboard — the kind we used to use to make presentations about Henry Kissinger — littered with names, circles and dotted lines in black Sharpie. To put it simply, it was a handy-dandy guide of who had fucked who on campus, with a comical amount of overlap.
As it turns out, this kind of intertwined lesbian society doesn’t flame out once you remove the scenic quad and sexually charged rugby team from the equation. It runs just as rampant in Hollywood. Enter Kaelee Overfield, known on TikTok to her half a million followers as Kales_0, who’s generously dedicated her off-time from her work as a public defender to educating masses about the complex (and at times incestuous) hookups of social media’s most active lesbians.
She calls this domain Leztopia, and in many ways, she’s become a starring character despite living thousands of miles away from LA, where things like the Fletcher concert that shook the nation take place. JoJo Siwa, one of her most notorious subjects, even name-drops her during a convoluted summary of the evening on an episode of The Viall Files, where the straights are bewildered and befuddled, to say the least.
In honor of Byline’s “Freaking Out” issue, we invited Kaelee — or as The New York Times dubbed her, Lesbian Perez Hilton — to share her celebrity hot takes, guilty pleasures, and unrivaled Swiftie standom.
What’s a frequent theme/subculture/quirk on your personal TikTok FYP that might surprise us?
Kaelee Overfield: For starters, I love Alix Earle. It might surprise people since she is living the world's straightest life, but I really enjoy her content. Next would be food videos, I steal most of my meal prep ideas from my TikTok FYP.
If you got to guest star or compete on any reality show, which would it be and why?
Kaelee Overfield: Listen, I LOVE reality TV. I’d love to guest star on The Kardashians…for obvious reasons. But having to pick between that and a game show would be hard — I love Survivor, and I think I could pull it off. Victoria Paris used to joke about going on Survivor — she should. She could so win it all.
Please go on Survivor, it’s getting dusty! Speaking of tired franchises, who should be cast as the first lesbian Bachelorette (on purpose this time)?
Kaelee Overfield: LOL. Hmm, that’s a good question…typically the bachelorette isn’t someone “famous.” So I’d honestly have to answer with my friend Cara. If any hot single mascs see this, hit her up.
This year’s Spotify Wrapped was basically telling us all that we were gay AF. What part of yours were you least likely to share on social?
Kaelee Overfield: I am super embarrassed to admit that “I’m Just Ken” was my 48th most listened-to song. Doesn’t seem that high, I know…but it was the first non-Taylor/Olivia-Rodrigo song on the list.
Okay, you brought up Taylor first, so let’s play a quick game. F, Marry, Kill: Red Era, Reputation Era, Folklore/Evermore Era.
Kaelee Overfield: That’s easy.
Bang: Reputation (Obvi, have you seen Rep Taylor?)
Marry: Folklore/Evermore (I’m a longtime fan, but this is her best stuff hands down)
Kill: Red (Sorryyyy)
What’s your number one guilty pleasure movie?
Kaelee Overfield: Crazy Stupid Love.
We’re almost at the end of 2023. What fad or fashion trend would you want to see resurrected in 2024?
Kaelee Overfield: I feel like we went from mom jeans to baggy pants this year, and I'm digging it. I hope we keep that up in 2024. Make clothes comfortable again!!!
You famously slayed the bar exam this year. Pick one of these lawyers as your co-counsel: Elle Woods, Kim Kardashian, Meghan Markle on Suits.
Kaelee Overfield: KIMMM. Kim could call me up and ask me to quit my job and move to LA today to help with her exoneration work. I love her for many reasons, but the work she does to get innocent men and women out of prison is incredible. She has amazing power to, for lack of better words, get shit done. I hope she keeps it up. The world needs awareness on this issue. I’m a public defender, and I understand some people need jail or prison, but not the majority of the people in there.
You’re stranded on a desert island with JoJo Siwa, Chrishell Stause, and Fletcher. Who would you trust to get you home, and who’d be the first to start talking to a volleyball?
Kaelee Overfield: My answer might have been different before JoJo did Special Forces….but she really got after it on that show. Seems like she’s got some real dedication, so I’d have to say JoJo is getting us home. Fletcher is still worried about Shannon. Chrishell is just there for a good time. And I am the one talking to the volleyball.
