Zac Efron has had quite a trajectory, from high school heartthrob to notorious serial killer.


On May 3rd, Extremely Wicked, Shocking Evil and Vile will make its debut on Netflix with Efron himself in the role of Ted Bundy, who murdered more than 30 people.






The movie reportedly is "the best performance of [Zac Efron]'s career thus far" and has received mostly positive reviews.

However, some people are accusing Efron of glamorizing Bundy.







But Efron himself was not willing to accept this narrative that he was "glamorizing" Bundy.

"The goal was a very challenging one and I'm thrilled that it turned out the way that it did," he said, on Ellen. "I am not into portraying a serial killer or anybody of this nature or glamorizing them in any way...it does not glamorize the killing. This is an important thing for people to hear."

Optimistic, but true?










Friday night, you can terrify yourself by watching your childhood crush play one of the most evil serial killers in American history.

Don't say we didn't warn you.

MAGA MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell Dragged After Weeping To Judge That He Has No Money To Pay Fines

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell was mocked online after it emerged that he reportedly sobbed to a judge that he's "in ruins" and doesn't have the money to pay a court-ordered $50,000 fine to the voting software company Smartmatic, which he falsely claimed had rigged the 2020 election results in favor of former President Joe Biden.

Appearing via Zoom at a hearing in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., Lindell claimed Wednesday that he doesn’t even have “5 cents” to put toward the $56,396 he owes the company, telling the court he has “nothing” beyond two homes currently being liquidated and a truck. He has recently laid off hundreds of MyPillow employees due to what he described as severe financial distress.
