For the best and worst dresses at the 2015 Oscars, click here.
-There is pretty much zero chance that these rumours about Prince Harry crushing on Emma Watson are true, but can you imagine if they were? Could the internet even handle it, or would every computer in the world just spontaneously explode the second the first photo of them together was published?
-You can read Norm Macdonald’s incredible behind-the-scenes tweets about #SNL40 all in one place here. The bit about Eddie Murphy refusing to kick Bill Cosby when he’s down is worth the read.
–Adam Scott has scored his first post-Parks TV gig.
-Weird, but awesome: Orphan Black’s season premiere will air on AMC, SundanceTV, IFC and BBC America. There’s no excuse not to watch it, people!
-As excited as I am to see The Duff, I just assumed it was going to be one of those movies I was going be mocked for liking. But it’s actually getting good reviews. Like, really good. The Globe & Mail even called it “the first great teen comedy since Mean Girls.” Wut?
-Also, here’s a great interview with Mae Whitman talking about how she relishes the chance to play misfits. God, I hope this turns her into a huge star.
-Author EL Jamesseems determined to guarantee that the Fifty Shades sequel will be terrible. It’s almost like we have a mole working to take it down from the inside!
–Kanye West was on The Breakfast Club and said a bunch of stupid things, including a quote about how Beyonce keeps photos of Kim Kardashian on her studio wall for inspiration (sure she does, muffin), some disses against Amber Rose, and gossip about Kylie Jenner dating Tyga. “I think they’re in love, man. You can’t tell nobody.”
–Jason Biggs is not returning for Season 3 of Orange Is The New Black. No big loss there.
–Jared Leto says he’s having a hard time gaining weight for the Suicide Squad. Don’t make me hate you, Jordan Catalano. You’re already skating on thin ice with the man bun.
-Here’s the new promo for Mad Men’s new season. Anyone else really feel that AMC dropped the ball big time by splitting up the final season into two seasons? It worked for Breaking Bad because the first 8 episodes ended on a cliff-hanger that no one stopped talking about during its hiatus, but there seems to be ZERO buzz for Mad Men’s final run. It gives me the sads.
–Mo’Nique is dead to Hollywood because of her Oscar insolence, according to Lee Daniels.
-I thought Lip Sync Battle sounded like the worst show ever, and then I saw this clip of Common vs John Legendand it changed everything!
-Here’s the trailer for HBO’s long-awaited Scientology doc. They gave it a Sunday night timeslot, which bodes really, really well.
-I’m still unsure about Far from the Madding Crowd because I had such a strong negative reaction to that book, but damn the new trailermakes it look so, so pretty.
–Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan posed in character for W magazine (which basically means she got really naked and he mostly wore jeans), and then Dakota showed Jimmy Fallonhow to be sexyon last night’s Tonight Show. I like her shoulder move!
-Meanwhile, Vulture really dug Dakota’s performance in Fifty Shades. Jamie‘s, not so much.
-I don’t watch House of Cards because I think it’s trash masquerading as prestige television (not that I don’t love me some trash, but ya gotta own it), but everyone is FREAKING OUT over the fact that season three suddenly appeared on Netflixweeks before it was supposed to. (At least their social media account handled the leakwell.)
-Our long national nightmare is over — Rihanna and Leonardo DiCaprio have reportedly stopped banging.
-The infamous conscious uncoupling may have happened a year before we thought it did — or at least that’s what Gwyneth Paltrow would have you believe.
–Johnny Depp reportedly decided not to sign a prenup before wedding Amber Heard. She will now have legal rights to half of his stupid hat collection.
-I liked this article on the power and pitfalls of ‘shipping TV characters. Yesterday I realized that a bunch of people on my Twitter timeline aren’t just ‘shipping TV characters but the actors who play them (who are married to other people in real life) and it freaked me the eff out.
-I like Agent Carter, but I really really like the lead actress Haley Atwell. She gives good interview, especially when asked about sexism.
-We have to wait until March 1 for a new episode of The Good Wife, but this teaser should hold you over.
-The trailer for Trainwreck, starring and written by Amy Schumer and directed by Judd Apatow, made me laugh out loud at least three times, so that’s a good sign. The cast is insane, but it’s Vanessa Bayer who steals the show in this clip. “Cause you’re on antibiotics or something?!”
