Kanye West Gets Into Twitter Battle with Wiz Khalifa

https://twitter.com/kanyewest/status/692449710452379648

-Kanye West’s obsession with Amber Rose saw him Twitter spiraling hard this afternoon. He deleted most of them, but on the plus side, Buzzfeed has ALREADY made a quiz out of his crazy tweets.

-So how many times have we all listened to the new Rihanna & Drake song today? 10? 20?

–Beyonce touched her stomach so now she’s obviously pregnant because that’s how things work.

-Decidedly not pregnant: Olivia Wilde.

-You can now watch Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire‘s infamous banned film for free online. By all accounts, it’s the closest we’ll ever get to a peek inside their p*ssy posse, so get on it!

-The Hollywood Reporter is going hard on the diversity issue with this cover story and by publishing essays from studio execs. As depressing as the essays are, they’re are really bringing to light the entrenched opinions of old school Hollywood.

-Also, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s guest essay is well worth a read.

-In the midst of all the diversity conversations, Joseph Fiennes was just cast as Michael Jackson.  Fiennes then somehow made it all worse by defending the decision by saying, “He was probably closer to my color.” NOPE.

–Oprah made $13.8 Million yesterday by tweeting about her love of bread. And how was YOUR day?

–Jillian Bell has the best worst story about meeting her celebrity crush, Justin Timberlake.

-For TV geeks, this interview with the head of Netflix is pretty spectacular.

-Ugh. The Angry Birds trailer is actually a thing now.

John Krasinski and Emily Blunt Expecting Second Child

-Congrats to John Krasinski and Emily Blunt, who are expecting their second genetically perfect child. I’m using this as an excuse to post that photo of him in Men’s Health because why not?!

-Perhaps that’s why John felt the need to clarify that he and Jenna Fischer weren’t “genuinely in love” on The Office.

-I’m not even sure if I can get angry at Kristen Stewart for her “gender equality is boring” comments, because they’re so scattered. I could barely follow the thread.

-Well, at least Kanye West is still modest.

-I love how The X Files’s second episode falling nearly 50% in the ratings still qualifies it as a hit. At least last night’s felt like it got its groove back.

-Jane the Virgin’s  is dating Ben Schwartz. This is some inside-my-head dream relationship casting!

–B.o.B. just started a rap war with Neil DeGrasse Tyson over his flat Earth tweets and I’ve never been happier to be alive.

-I missed this yesterday, but Shonda Rhimes’ speech about why doesn’t think it’s “trailblazing” to make diverse TV is pretty boss.

-Speaking of diversity, Variety’s new cover is stunning.

-Welp. Enjoy this short season of Agent Carter; it’ll prob be our last.

-I guess I always kind of assumed Mariah Carey‘s dogs had a better life than I do, but it’s still depressing to see it in writing.

-Can we all just collectively agree to NOT watch Woody Allen‘s new Amazon show with Miley Cyrus? Like, for humanity?

–Chris Brown won’t be charged for that alleged Las Vegas assault. Of course not.

-Is Britney Spears teasing a new album, or is she just showing off? Either is acceptable, frankly.

–Cersei Lannister reading insults from The Bachelor will make you long for a crossover ep.

-Every time I see a new Pride and Prejudice and Zombies trailer, I get SO EXCITED. The book made me belly laugh.

Gwyneth Paltrow Dines with Arnold Schwarzenegger

–Gwyneth Paltrow somehow ended up having dinner with Arnold Schwarzenegger. No one seems more surprised than her.

–John Krasinski and Anna Kendrick play an expectant couple in their new movie and I want it in my eyeballs right now!

-Also, John talking about his love of Emily Blunt will make you dissolve into a puddle and evaporate.

–Michelle Williams is clearly the Sundance MVP this year. Between Manchester By The Sea (which everyone is RAVING about) and Certain Women, she’s a lock for award show chatter next season.

–Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom still might be a thing.

–Jon Hamm‘s name is misspelled on his Golden Globe. Not great, Bob!

–Julie Delpy is clarifying her recent diversity statement that created so much controversy. Just stop talking, white actors.

–Matthew Perry says he can’t remember three years of Friends because he was so “out of it.” (People of my generation call that “Tracy Gold-ing it”).

-Meanwhile, here’s the first photo from the (not really) Friends reunion, allowing us yet another opportunity to play ‘what the hell is Aniston wearing?!?’

–Robert Downey Jr. just revealed that the Avengers gang has a group text going and I so want these to leak!

-Speaking of the Avengers, Mark Ruffalo lost his wallet and tweeted an adorable pic of the family who returned it.

–Mariah Carey‘s engagement ring is beyond massive.

–Chelsea Handler says her worst interview was Justin Bieber. Shocker.

-What do you do when a giant snowstorm cancels your fan convention? If you’re Stephen Amell and John Barrowman, you go to the hotel where most of your fans are stuck at and sing showtunes for them.

-Ok, so the first X Files episode was pretty bad (um, did they just throw out the entire series mythology? Really glad I did that rewatch, guys), but the ratings were solid. Tonight’s episode will be the real test — mostly because I don’t think they’ve done a good job of letting people know there’s a new one on tonight.

-I love this article on Dana Scully’s evolving fashion — and not just because it’s titled ‘Sisterhood of the Traveling Pantsuit.’

-It’s the dawning of the latest Batman v Superman trailer, which finally features Wonder Woman. Still not sold on this.
