Simone Ashley’s Preps for the Spotlight

Simone Ashley wears pink on Glamour

-I cannot wait until the new season of Bridgerton turns Simone Ashley into a huge star. She is on the new cover of Glamour and seems delightful.

Grimes spoke to Vanity Fair about internet criticism, her new album, and the secret arrival of her second child with Elon Musk, who was born in December via surrogate and named “Exa Dark Sideræl Musk.” She referred to Musk as her “boyfriend” but said “we’re very fluid.”

-Speaking of secret babies, Michael Cera just revealed he has a six month old.

-Yesterday I didn’t link to the outrage about Prince William‘s supposed comments about Ukraine because I read a few news stories about it and couldn’t find that exact quote anywhere reputable. Here’s what he actually said.

-As someone who once again just spent hundreds of dollars to get rid of her grays, I can fathom how Chris Pine is aging this gracefully (and grayly) without a care in the world. He explained his current look: “I guess it’s like, equal parts laziness and equal parts something I may do in the future here. If there’s any excuse not to shave and have makeup put on, I, you know …It’s mostly laziness.”

Selma Blair has been granted a restraining order after her ex allegedly attacked her.

-I love that Stewart Reynolds got to interview Ryan Reynolds (and I love that Ryan knew who he was).

-This is the third promo interview I’ve seen for The Adam Project where Jennifer Garner and Mark Ruffalo were forced to eat Razzles.

-This is wild: TikTok made an obscure b-side from 90s band Pavement trend, so they shot a new music video for it — starring an actress best known for Yellowjackets, which is set in the 90s.

-Vanity Fair got a bunch of celebs to play Never Have I Ever.

-The new Flash movie has been delayed yet again — this time from November 4, 2022 to June 23, 2023. Aquaman, the Lost Kingdom and Wonka are also getting pushed back.

-Here’s the trailer for the final season of Better Call Saul, a show I always feel guilty about not watching considering how much I adored Breaking Bad.

Kourtney Kardashian Set Boundaries

Kourtney-Kardashian-bustle

-For Bustle’s March cover story, Kourtney Kardashian talks about Travis Barker, starting Poosh, setting boundaries for things like “rest” with her driven family, and finally being happy. “I see the growth that comes from those unhappy places which make it all worth it. I’m like, ‘If we didn’t go through these roller coasters, you wouldn’t get to the good part.'”

-I know I say this every week, but Kanye West‘s behavior continues to be scary and no one seems to be doing anything about it. Today he released an alarming video for his song “Eazy,” featuring a claymation version of Pete Davidson being kidnapped, tied up, and buried alive. Claymation is hard — dozens if not hundreds of people would have worked on this video. And no one stopped to say “Um, are we maybe crossing a line here?”

-A TikToker explained those bizarre designer giveaways the Kardashians are always doing on their Instagram, which seem totally off-brand. They’re reportedly making $1.8 million on the latest one, which is very on-brand.

-I feel like 87% of The Batman’s marketing is relying on Robert Pattinson and Zoe Kravitz’s chemistry, and I don’t hate it.

Robert Pattinson admits to spending time anonymously responding to comments on online message boards. “It’s extremely helpful to have these fan theories. I used to look at a lot of the forum stuff and it actually really did inform my character a lot. Still look at it nowadays… I generally lurk. Sometimes I get pushed a little far and I have to respond.”

Paul Dano says his Riddler would play Wordle: “That actually was very important to my backstory … puzzles were the only place that he would be given any form of positive feedback … They were the only thing that ever said to him in his whole life, you win.”

-Bridgerton’s Charithra Chandran deactivated her Twitter account because Kanthony fans were being terrible to her. Not only should actors not have to deal with hate for their characters, but this doesn’t even make sense because her character in the book is great! The supposed “love triangle” doesn’t ever really materialize.

-The Shanna Moakler saga continues to grow complicated. A week after her ex-boyfriend Matthew Rondeau was arrested for felony domestic violence after an altercation at her house, she says she took a pregnancy test and it’s positive.

Skylar Astin already has a post-Playlist gig lined up; he is headed to Grey’s Anatomy.

-This is a cute video with Sarah Jessica Parker looking back at her fashion evolution.

Robert Pattinson Gets Raves for The Batman

-The embargo for The Batman lifted today and the reviews are mostly positive (though “overlong” and “oppressively dark” come up repeatedly). But critics seem unanimous in their praise for Robert Pattinson.

-The film is targeting a heroic $100 million-plus box office debut.

Benedict Cumberbatch received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame today, and J.J. Abrams was one of the people to pay tribute at the ceremony. “Beyond being one of our finest actors, he’s thoroughly decent… He’s annoying. Why? Because he’s also great looking, has a brilliant mind. He’s from esteemed lineage, or some shit.”

-Andrew Garfield and girlfriend Alyssa Miller made their red carpet debut at the SAG Awards.

-Last night, Squid Game took home three SAG awards, leading all series and becoming the first non-English language series to take home acting prizes. On the film side, CODA did well.

-I really liked Squid Game star HoYeon Jung‘s SAG Awards dress and traditional hair ribbon.

Michael Keaton, who won for Dopesick, gave the night’s best speech — rolling onto the stage after running in from the bathroom, voicing his support for Ukraine, and paying tribute to his nephew, who he lost to drugs.

Brad Pitt‘s company Plan B has reportedly come aboard to produce Beetlejuice 2 with original stars Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder reprising their roles.

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky attended the Gucci fashion show in Milan — and looked amazing.

Javon Walton, who plays Ash on Euphoria, talked to Esquire about last night’s season finale.

-I know people are upset by the fact that the finale didn’t answer any questions that the season had set up, but I was more disappointed by how chaotic these last few episodes ended up being. They threw the kitchen sink at us, despite the finale’s most affecting scenes being the quiet ones (Elliot singing Rue a song, Lexi and Rue reconnecting, etc.)  This review nails it: “Euphoria perhaps has always needed a little bit of restraint, and the finale proved how exhausting it can feel when it refuses to hold back at all when it probably should.”

Timothy Hutton is suing Leverage for dropping him from the revival.

-Ukrainian-born former ‘Dancing With the Stars’ pro Maksim Chmerkovskiy was arrested and released in his home country during the ongoing Russian invasion, and is now making plans to leave Kyiv.

Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively are matching donations up to $1M for Ukrainian refugees.
