Cross-generational internet language, there should be a sociology course on it. Like how some boomers use ellipses like regular dots, giving their lyrics strangely menacing feelings… Steve Martin posted a picture of him, Martin Short and Meryl Streep on his IG. Only he blocked his face with the 🚫 emoji. What is there? The photo is from her visit Pictures from homeOpening on Broadway in 2023. Does Steve Martin indirectly confirm the rumor that Short and Streep are dating? Or could there be another explanation? Vulture examines.

Since their off-the-chain chemistry in Just murders in the building Season 3 (and the announcement of Streep’s split from Don Gummer) has people at the mercy of Short and Streep. And there were denials! But there was also hand-holding on the red carpet and dinner at Giorgio Baldi – a favorite restaurant of celebs like Rihanna and Bennifer and a place where you knew you’d get hit on. Maybe Steve is stoking this fire of speculation.

I know what you’re thinking: Why wouldn’t he cut himself out if that’s the case? From the fact that the clock at the top of this screenshot is still standing, we can conclude that cropping is not Steve Martin’s strong suit. By the way, kudos to its 100 percent battery. But if “can’t crop” really was the reason for this post, he probably wouldn’t cover his face with an emoji, which also bothers Streep’s forehead. Streep forehead innocent!

The fate of all comedians, amirite? But if Martin’s memoirs, Born standing, It can be assumed that he cast out most of these demons. And he used all the time he wasn’t spending hating himself to pursue other passions, like playing the banjo. And collecting art.

Evidence for this theory: no caption. What a little stinker! Especially when it comes to Martin Short, Steve Martin is a real eye-catcher. Their readings to one another are an important part of their two-man show, as are most late-night guest appearances. It seems entirely possible that Steve Martin made this vague post just to tax his buddy with another tabloid press cycle. If that’s the case, then it worked. We’re speculating here!
