–Zooey Deschanel is being sued by her ex-manager over New Girl commissions.

-This article about the Star Wars promo tour made me super glad that I’m out of the junket game.

-If I ever play Heads Up with a celebrity, I want it to be with Tina Fey. Actually, if I ever do anything with a celebrity, I want it to be with Tina Fey.

-Vulture posted a complete history of Tina Fey and Amy Poehler’s friendship, and it redefines squad goals.

-Meanwhile, Tina scouts for Afghanistan news stories in the trailer for the dramedy Whiskey Tango Foxtrot.

John Krasinski and Jimmy Kimmel Ramp Up Their Holiday Hijinks

–John Krasinski and Jimmy Kimmel‘s annual holiday prank war reached a new level this week.

–Drake’s “Hotline Bling” just got reimagined by Bryan Cranston, Amy Schumer, Kristen Wiig, Seth Rogen, and more. (Rooney Mara is having NONE OF IT because she’s allergic to fun.)

-Meanwhile, Tom Ford‘s Drake-inspired lipstick sold out instantly because of course it did.

–Brad Pitt is dressed like a tourist at this Cambodian flea market. He’s such a dad now.

–Kaley Cuoco is dating Arrow star Paul Blackthorne? I swear, she picks potential dates from a random celebrity name generator. I mean, I love him (I’m pretty sure 75% of the reason I started watching Arrow is because of the way he calls Laurel “Lawwwralll”), but he’s way too old for her. Plus, I was hoping there was something going on between him and Charlotte Ross, because they’re always posting super flirty set pics.

–Jimmy Fallon, The Roots and the Star Wars cast sang the theme song last night and it was lovely. Meanwhile, the new movie is killing it with critics.

–Jamie Foxx and Katie Holmes: still doin’ it.

–Michael B. Jordan has secretly been writing a comic called North that will hit next year because he’s awesome at everything.

-Congrats to The Rock and his girlfriend, who just welcomed a baby girl.

–Leighton Meester and Dana Williams covered ‘Blue Christmas’ and it’s lovely.

-Speaking of Gossip Girl alums, Kelly Rutherford has officially lost custody of her two children. She’ll only be allowed to visit them in Europe, which is nuts. I have not understood any step of this case.

-It’s my favourite Twitter day, when everyone tweets out the most memorable TV lines of the past year!

-Speaking of TV, I really liked this NYT article on how streaming has changed the game. While broadcast shows rely on cliffhangers and structure, streaming shows rely on The Suck (and are completely unable to course-correct).

–Anthony Hopkins and Al Pacino team up in the Misconduct trailer.

-A ton of celebs showed up at the Star Wars premiere, but Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s homemade Yoda costume is all anyone’s talking about.

-Also, the new Star Wars movie supposedly passes the Bechdel test. Woot!

–Joshua Jackson’s father is not worried about those rumours of Diane Kruger cheating on Josh with Norman Reedus. But I am, Papa Jackson. I AM.

–Christina Aguilera was reportedly so drunk at Seth MacFarlane‘s holiday party that she almost fell into the Christmas tree. (We call that ‘doing the Kiefer’ around these parts).

-Billy on the Street is having an intensely epic season. Sarah Jessica Parker appears on the latest episode, where he loudly and emphatically defends Sex on the City 2.

-I just discovered that YouTube reaction videos are a thing and they confuse me. People record themselves watching movie trailers and TV shows and I just don’t get it. That being said, there’s something great about watching Kevin Smith sob hysterically over The Flash finale.

-I love when Stephen Colbert told Jennifer Lawrence “you are one of the most relatable people out there” and she instantly responded “he says on television.” Refreshingly self-aware.

-Well, this is terrible: Downton Abbey star Michelle Dockery’s fiancé has died of cancer at 34.

–Beyoncé is wearing a Christmas tree and somehow still makes it work because she is a precious magical unicorn.

–Kylie Jenner just made her Vogue debut? Does Anna know about this?!
