Amber Rose: She's just a 'nerd' in the bedroom who terrifies men

Also in Tattle: "Suicide Squad," Angelina Jolie and Kim Kardashian West.

MEN ARE terrified of Philadelphia's Amber Rose.

This is according to Amber Rose.

Amber, who has a Friday late-night talk show on VH1, aptly called The Amber Rose Show, is kind of like Dr. Drew meets Dr. Ruth in her willingness to talk about sex and relationships.

Friday night, Amber's guest was Kandi Burruss (The Real Housewives of Atlanta), and Amber, of course, talked about men.

"Men are so scared of me," she told Kandi. "I'll literally go out on a date and a guy's like this, shaking. They're f---ing scared of me, Kandi, I don't know! They're terrified of me.

"You know what guys say to me? 'What can I do for you that you can't do for yourself?' " she continued. "And I'm like, 'If you go to the store and get a dollar-fifty card and write something nice in it, I would appreciate that.' But you know what I think, too? I think that they're so focused on concentrating."

Then the women talked about self-pleasure.

Kandi is for it.

So's Amber. She said she does it all the time - at least once a day. "That's why my skin looks so flawless," she said.

Take that, dermatologists.

From there the conversation moved to sex toys and how some larger devices can make men feel inadequate.

Kandi wanted none of that moping from her men: "We're not trying to replace you," she said. "We're just trying to spice things up and enhance the relationship."

"I feel like I'm just such a nerd in the bedroom," Rose acknowledged soon after. "People really think that I have orgies all day, and I do like these crazy sex acts. I'm really just a normal girl."

'Squad' kills box office

Suicide Squad shrugged off scathing reviews to open with an estimated $135.1 million in North American ticket sales, scoring one of the year's biggest box-office debuts.

It also set a record for an August opening, besting Marvel's 2014 hit Guardians of the Galaxy.

Not everything was roses for Suicide Squad, though. After fans flocked to theaters on Thursday night and Friday, audiences dropped steeply on Saturday. That could forecast further sharp declines in coming weeks for the $175 million film, which also came with a massive marketing budget.

That was the trajectory for Batman v Superman, which bowed with $166 million in March but didn't make that much in its entire remaining run. Suicide Squad, the last tentpole of the summer, won't have much competition in the coming weeks, but it will need better word of mouth than Batman v Superman to keep luring audiences.

Warner Bros., with years of DC films in the works, has a lot riding on its Squad. Next up is Patty Jenkins' Wonder Woman in June.

The top five for the weekend box office was otherwise filled with holdovers. Jason Bourne grossed $22.7 million in its second weekend. Bad Moms also continued solid business with $14.2 million in its second week. They were followed by The Secret Life of Pets ($11.6 million) and Star Trek Beyond ($10.2 million).

* Popsugar.com reports that Angelina Jolie will join the London School of Economics next year as a visiting professor. She'll teach a year-long master's course on the impact of war on women.

Kim Kardashian West is many things. But don't call her a feminist.

"I don't think that I am," she said Friday at the BlogHer conference of bloggers. "I don't like labels. I just think I do what makes me happy and I want women to be confident and I'm so supportive of women."

But you're not a feminist?

"I love to support other women, but I'm not the free-the-nipple type girl ... Just, like, no hate. That's my thing," she said.

We've seen a lot of Kim selfies and she definitely seems like a free-the-nipple type girl.
