Drizella Tremaine and the Terrible, Horrible, No-Good, Very Bad Week: A Story in Headlines, Tweets, and Other Online Things

TW: Allusions to anti-Magick/misogynistic behavior and bad workplace environments, the celebrity gossip train going off-rails, someone getting online canceled (ouch), implications of infidelity

US WEEKLY: OCT. 13 2023

Izzy Maine loses it Weigh in: should we #CancelIzzy??

A video of comedian Izzy Maine, 33, pouring scalding hot coffee on TikTok personality Esme Bennet (@its_esmayyyyyy), 20, has gone viral — with the hashtag #CancelIzzy trending as well.

The video, which seems to take place at a brunch gathering held at Bennet’s house in Los Angeles, showcases the comedian angrily storming up to Bennet and purposefully dumping a carton of coffee onto the influencer and nearby guests, including Maine’s husband of three years, comedian Grant Dayton, 35.

Dayton and Maine are both alumni of Saturday Night Live, who left the sketch comedy show to pursue their own projects. Before the Writer’s Guild of America and Screen Actors Guild strikes, the pair were working on a new comedy series for Netflix, with Maine showrunning and Dayton executive-producing and starring.

Many of Bennet’s fans are rallying on social media, calling for Netflix to cancel Maine’s show.

THE CUT: OCT. 16 2023

Izzy Maine’s catastrophic fall from graceIn the aftermath of the comedian’s explosive outburst, more women are coming forward with stories of Maine’s volatile behavior

Excerpt:

“One time during a writer’s meeting, she got so mad that she grabbed a tray of bagels and flung it onto the table,” says a writer’s assistant, who prefers to remain anonymous. “Gobs of cream cheese got everywhere. I had to leave the room crying, I was so scared. The smell of lox wouldn’t leave my hair for days.”

When asked about the bagel incident, a representative of Maine’s provided this statement:

“It’s true that Izzy often gets passionate in the writer’s room, because she wants the best from her team. This claim however completely misconstrues what happened, which was simply a clumsy dining accident that occurred when Izzy was vehemently gesturing.”

The representative went on to say that Maine paid for the entire team’s laundry and dry-cleaning.

THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER: OCT. 17 2023

Multiple Netflix projects scrapped; streamer cites creative differences

Excerpt:

Netflix officially pulled the plug on at least 12 different shows and movies in development, citing new directions and creative differences between the talent involved. This coincides with the end of the 148-day Writers Guild of America strike, and the ongoing Screen Actors Guild strike.

The canceled projects run a wide gamut from Love is Blind: Avalor, the long-rumored biopic of Ingary’s Madame Sulliman, and comedian Izzy Maine’s highly anticipated sitcom. Considering the other changes at Netflix, specifically the price plan and introduction of an ad-tier, it seems like the streamer is pivoting to a new direction.

JEZEBEL: OCT. 18 2023

Netflix was right to dump Izzy Maine Coffee and bagels aside…

Excerpt:

TikTok influencer coffee spill and bagel tray flinging aside, Izzy Maine was just never funny and it’s time we admit that.

I don’t mean to be the type of person who brags about not liking something cool, but I never got Izzy Maine’s whole schtick. Didn’t we leave behind that whole “not like other girls, rah-rah I like pizza and beer and hate motherhood” deal behind in 2013? None of her standup clips have ever made me laugh.

I’m not alone. Earlier this year, an audio clip from one of Maine’s standups went viral — but for reasons I’m sure Izzy Maine would hate. It’s a clip from one of her standups, where she brags about being the type of woman who doesn’t wear makeup. It became a meme, with plenty of empowered young women, proudly showing off their makeup routines and outright mocking Maine’s words.

PEOPLE MAGAZINE: OCT 19. 2023

Inside Izzy Maine and Grant Dayton’s Big Split!Sources say that Maine’s volatile behavior had the couple on rocks for months

Excerpt:

Comedy fans have been following #Mainton since their SNL days, especially the infamous Butternut Squash skit where the two shared some electric flirty banter that definitely bled from their IRL relationship. But it looks like there’s trouble in comedy paradise, considering Dayton was not only spotted moving out from the couple’s Brooklyn apartment but also unfollowed Maine on Instagram. Yeoch!

“Grant’s been very upset with Izzy’s behavior, even before the whole coffee incident,” says a source close to the couple. “He’s felt like she steamrolls over him in all their creative endeavors and he feels scared to voice his concerns about how she treats the people they work with.”

But a source close to Maine states otherwise.

“Grant’s always been insecure about Izzy’s success,” says the anonymous person. “She’s way more popular than him on social media, and I think that’s definitely undermined a lot of their collaboration.”

Regardless of the couple’s relationship, clearly Maine’s outburst towards TikTok personality Esme Bennet (@its_esmayyyyy), the social media backlash against her, and the subsequent cancellation of the couple’s upcoming Netflix show did NOT help any resentment building between them.

But there is a silver lining — for Dayton at least. Judging by how frequently he’s appeared in Bennet’s IG stories, it seems like they’ve gotten a lot closer since Maine’s violent outburst. Could a romance be brewing between them?

TW: Hangover

It was 1 pm, and Drizella Tremaine was still in bed.

She had at least 12 missed calls and a splitting headache. The curtains of her Williamsburg apartment were drawn tightly shut, but even so, a crack of light splintered through, shining right on Drizella’s eye. She winced, but used that opportunity to stretch out, her fingers clawing at her phone.

She fumbled, finally managing to unplug it, and scrolled through her unread text messages. Most were her agent. A few from some friends, who probably were figuring out if associating with her was going to damage their own blossoming careers. A couple from her mother. There was one from her sister, but Drizella didn’t even bother to read anything beyond Annie’s name.

There wasn’t a single message from Grant.

At this point, Drizella didn’t know what she expected. It wasn’t like an apology from her sleazeball of a husband about how he should not have fucked a buxom TikToker 15 years younger than him would make things better. Even if Drizella found it in her cold, bitter heart (his words, not hers) to forgive him, there were still the facts that 1) he had fucked a buxom TikToker 15 years younger than him, 2) she had spilled coffee all over that buxom TikToker, even if she had been aiming for Grant (her words, not his), and 3), because of fact 2, the entire internet was convinced she was some raging anti-Magick misogynist because said buxom TikToker just happened to be half-fairy.

If Drizella thought about it too much, she got angry. Very angry. And that only fed into all the rumors about her, which made her even angrier, and then she ended up doing stupid things. Like throwing Grant’s camera off the balcony and going out to the local dive bar and dancing on the tables and slamming back wayyy too many Fireball shots for someone over the age of 22, and then booking a one-way ticket to her dinky little hometown.

Wait — had she done that?

The memories of last night were coming back — in some sort of grainy montage set to a Katy Perry song.

Oh for fuck’s sake.

She looked at her email, and sure enough, there was a receipt for an airplane ticket to London, then a train ticket to Swynlake. There was also an email sent to her agent, one that was surprisingly coherent for an email written at approximately 3:34 am that she also could not remember sending.

Her phone buzzed, her agent’s name flashing on the screen. Violently. Drizella yelped, nearly dropping it, but managed to slide the accept call bar and press the phone to her ear and a hand to her forehead.

“Listen, Hannah —”

“Izzy, this is a fantastic idea.”

A beat.

“Wait, what?”

“The Swynlake thing? It’s genius.” If the late night timing of the message disturbed Hannah at all, she did not let it on. Then again, it was certainly not the first ill-timed email that Drizella had fired off to Hannah (she worked better past midnight, she always said).

“It is?”

Hannah ignored the doubt in Drizella’s voice.

“And your sister’s there too, right? Two birds, one stone. You go to this Magick-Friendly town — y'know, the place you grew up. The place that formed you. You kiss some cheeks with some fairies or vampires or whatever. You get involved with local politics, sign a few petitions, flick off a local lord…”

“I don’t think we have a local lord.”

“Duke? Earl? I don’t know, girl. Do something to show that you’re relatable and not afraid to stick it to the man. And also become aunt of the year to your sister’s little tykes.”

Drizella’s head was still pounding. The last thing she wanted to do right now was have Annie’s spawn squirm all over her. And probably puke on her shoes. How old were they again? Jaxson was… seven? And Harlynne was… four? And wait — there was another one now. What was his name again? Lenny?

“Izzy, this could solve all your problems.”

Drizella rubbed her forehead again. She closed her eyes. She needed coffee and aspirin, but those would be temporary fixes. She needed to put Grant’s stupid BMW in one of those junkyard smasher things, but that also wouldn’t really fix any of her problems. But… maybe Swynlake would.

She couldn’t get over the fucking irony of it all.

“I know,” she said, slipping into confidence. “I’m bloody brilliant, aren’t I? I’ll start coming up with a game plan the moment I get some coffee.”

“Excellent — we’re gonna get you out of this Izzy.”

“I know it.”
