-I really like Ariana Grande. The girl’s been through a lot and always seems unfailingly sweet with a good head on her shoulders. But she *just* got out of a two-year relationship. What’s the rush, girl?

-Vince Vaughn was arrested for DUI this weekend — and had the happiest mug shot ever.

David and Victoria Beckham  showed a united front at a fashion show on Sunday amidst all those wild rumors about divorces and pregnant schoolteachers.

Lady Gaga gave a brave, emotional speech about mental illness while presenting an award to her mother this weekend: “I can’t remain silent any longer. The passing of Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain has made me want to speak up about my mental illness. I have been experiencing suicidal ideation and cyclical obsessive suicidal thoughts for the past four years.”

Patton Oswalt shared Anthony Bourdain‘s brutally honest email about eating out in Paris and it’s wonderful. (I went to L’Avant Comptoire based on his Layover episode and adored it.)

-Praise be! Ocean’s 8 bumped Solo: A Star Wars Story from the top of the box office, and opened higher than any other Oceans movie.

Rachel Bloom very politely clapped back at Neil Patrick Harris while he was tweeting during the Tony Awards.

-The theatre department at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High performed “Seasons of Love” on the Tonys last night and no YOU’RE CRYING!

-This history of Can’t Hardly Wait gives a lot of credit to the costume designers, which I love.

-Speaking of things I love, these photos from EW’s Queer As Folk reunion make my heart sing.

Scarlett Johansson dines with Hitler in this first look at Taika Waititi’s Jojo Rabbit. “Nazi comedy” doesn’t exactly sound like my jam, but I will watch whatever this guy puts out forever.

-The next Carpool Karaoke features the cast of Tag. I kind of hate how much this made me laugh. Who knew Renner had this in him?

Jada Pinkett Smith continues to use her Facebook show for family therapy. In her latest episode, she told daughter Willow that she had given herself “multiple orgasms” by her age. Somehow, Willow did not run screaming from the room.

Sarah Jessica Parker just launched her own book imprint.

-I always forget that The Rock started out in the CFL.

-TBS renewed its quirky comedy People of Earth for a third season — and then changed their mind and cancelled it.

-I spent a lot of time yesterday being jealous of all the people I follow on Twitter who were attending the Felicity cast reunion at ATX. Amanda Foreman (who played Meghan) seemed to be the only one who remembered the weird time-travel plot of the last five episodes. Scott Foley didn’t even remember that his character died!

-In light of all the stuff that’s happening on Fear the Walking Dead (which I don’t watch, but the actor affected sounds devastated by it), this is a great thread on how women over 40 are still hugely underrepresented on TV, and even when they’re there, the usual TV “rules” don’t apply to them.

-This is an excellent (and scary) article on sexual misconduct at Toronto’s music venues.

-The fight spills outside the ring in the new Glow season 2 trailer.

Ryan Gosling and La La Land’s Damien Chazelle reteam for the First Man trailer.

TV Drama Actresses Cover THR

-The Hollywood Reporter’s actresses roundtable features Angela Bassett, Claire Foy, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Elisabeth Moss, Thandie Newton and Sandra Oh, and it’s well worth a read.  They talk about pay parity, sex scenes and deciding when to weigh in on decision making on sets.

-This is exactly what I wanted to hear about Ocean’s 8.

-Jesus, how is The Bachelorette still able to survive? A season 2 producer arranged for a masseuse to come to Meredith Phillips‘ room during production in L.A., and that masseuse drugged and assaulted Meredith, she says.

-Anyone else get the feeling that David Cross is… a lot? During his interview with Colbert, he got so offended that he walked off the set. I mean, I get that it was a bit but I find him exhausting.

Sarah Silverman was interviewed by GQ and was pretty damn forgiving about controversial comedians in her circle. She spoke about Al Franken (“I understand that I may have cognitive distortion, because I love him so much. But all I can say is, and he may not be excited about this, but he has no sexuality. I believe in my heart of heart of hearts he never copped a feel”), Louie CK (“He’s my brother, so it’s hard. I may not have a very clear perspective on it, but I’m trying to…I don’t have some definitive sound bite or nutshell of how I feel about it, even to myself. But I’m also okay with that”), Aziz  Ansari (“I was just like, ‘Gross, I don’t wanna know that about Aziz!’ Hopefully he’s dealing with things, looking inward, and will blossom from it”) and Roseanne (“I had the gall to get high one night and watch episodes one and two of Roseanne. And I thought it was lovely.”)

-Seeing as her own sister accused Louis CK of masturbating in front of her 20 times, I’m surprised she’s this understanding.

-You know what, I really like Ariana Grande. Like, a lot.

-Interesting look at what TV critics are picking as their fave new pilots in the upcoming season.

Damon Lindelof wrote an emotional letter to fans about his vision for The Watchmen.

Jake Gyllenhaal and Carey Mulligan‘s marriage falls apart in Paul Dano‘s directorial debut, Wildfire. This is a really, really well done trailer.

Ocean’s 8 Cast Takes Over the Met

-The Ocean’s 8 press tour kicked off today (at the Met, which is perfect) and I am here for all the fabulous pantsuits.  Early estimates for its June 8th opening are strong.

Ariana Grande is reportedly dating Saturday Night Live’s Pete Davidson. I’m surprised that they’re both 24 (I thought she was way younger, and he was way older). I dig it, though. “It’s very casual” sources tell People.

-At the royal wedding, George Clooney reportedly hopped behind the bar and served tequila. He knows he doesn’t have to shill for Casamigos anymore, right?

-Meanwhile, Prince Charles‘ speech reportedly made everyone cry, while Prince William made fun of Harry‘s imminent bald patch and said “My brother is clearly in love. Being in love is like a little boy wetting himself. You don’t know you are doing it, everyone else knows and you get a warm feeling.”

-Meghan and Harry made their first public appearance as a married couple today, and the stockings really bummed me out. I was really hoping that she would somehow find a way to get around that rule…

-Talk about an upgrade: Avril Lavigne is dating a billionaire.

Vito Schnabel continues to punch above his weight when it comes to relationships. He previously dated Heidi Klum, Demi Moore, Elle Macpherson, and Liv Tyler, and now he’s reportedly with Amber Heard.

-Heard’s most recent ex, Elon Musk, is dating Grimes, who took to Twitter to defend him against rumours that he prevented his Tesla workers from unionizing.

Hugh Grant, 57, is walking down the aisle for the first time, and his fiancee is a surprisingly respectable 39! They have three kids.

-The new Arrested Development season is getting way better reviews than the last one and reportedly “feels like the show you remember.” Thank god.

-This TV season continues to be wild. Lucifer is still cancelled (so far) but Fox announced they will air two “bonus” episodes this month. Meanwhile, it looks like Amazon may swoop in to save the recently canceled The Expanse. But even rumours of a Will Ferrell role, a new showrunner and a switch to multicam couldn’t save Fox’s comedy LA to Vegas.

-Also wild: UnREAL will likely end with season four, which will air FIRST on Hulu rather than Lifetime.

-More wildin’: Barack and Michelle Obama have entered into a multi-year agreement to produce films and series for Netflix.

Kelly Clarkson opened the Billboard Music Awards by saying she was sick of moments of silence and demanding a moment of action.

R. Kelly is being accused of sexual battery, false imprisonment, and transmitting a sexual disease in a new lawsuit.

This video is very old but I’ve never seen it before and it made me kind of fall in love with Robert Downey Jr.

-I really liked Spider Man: Homecoming so I’m very here for the news that Jake Gyllenhaal will play the villainous Mysterio in the sequel.

-I saw Deadpool 2 this weekend. It was good but I am already in superhero movie fatigue and it’s only May. Judging by it’s lower than expected box office results, I’m not the only one.

-This newly released old image from Rolling Stone’s Chris Evans photo shoot saved my weekend.

Asia Argento spoke at the Cannes closing ceremony: “In 1997, I was raped by Harvey Weinstein here at Cannes. I was 21 years old. This festival was his hunting ground.” She says after her fiery speech, Spike Lee was the “the only person who came up to me, congratulated and spoke kind words to me.”

Johnny Depp plays a cop investigating Biggie Smalls’ murder in the City of Lies trailer. I am negative interested in this.
