-Could The Last Jedi press tour be any more charming? Here’s the cast taking the “Which Star Wars Character From The New Trilogy Are You?” Buzzfeed quiz. Buzzfeed also had Oscar Isaac and John Boyega read thirst tweets about themselves. And my favourite: Gwendoline Christie and Boyega sticking their hands in a creepy box. “Is it a crab?! Is it a CRAB?!”
-While we’re all buying canned goods and prepping our makeshift bunkers for the end of times, Taylor Swift is reflecting on how awesome 2017 was. You do you, girl.
–Jamie Foxx celebrated his 50th birthday with Katie Holmes by his side. (I love how in this video you can clearly see her say “Don’t worry about me. It’s your birthday. I’m good!” and yet he continues to fret over her.)
–Nine more women have accused Russell Simmons of sexual misconduct.
–Harvey Weinstein responded to Salma Hayek‘s sexual harassment claims, releasing a statement to say “All of the sexual allegations as portrayed by Salma are not accurate.”
-Filmmaker Morgan Spurlock got ahead of the story by admitting to sexual misconduct in an open letter. The Super Size Me director revealed that he was once accused of rape and had settled a sexual harassment claim made by a female employee. Spurlock also admitted to being “unfaithful to every wife and girlfriend I have ever had.”
-I’m glad that Mark Ruffalo and Don Cheadle are inviting other kids besides Keaton to the Infinity Wars premiere.
-Why did I read the latest creepy Dear David thread right before bed last night?! (Here’s the entire saga if you never want to sleep again. I’m still holding out hope that this is an incredibly effective, incredibly slow-moving viral promotion for an upcoming horror flick.)
-On the flip side, this is, without a doubt, the best Twitter thread to ever exist.
-My favourite holiday tradition is watching Olivia Colman and David Tennant playing chilli jam roulette while in their Broadchurch costumes. (It’s also a stark reminder that I don’t know much about scone etiquette. Her anger at the idea of putting jam on before cream baffles me.)
-Could the Murdoch sale spell doom for the Fox network as we know it? Scripted shows suddenly make a lot less sense than reality shows, live events and sports.
-The Ocean 8 poster is everything.
-I really couldn’t get through this whole Madonna interview. She’s beautiful. She’s always been beautiful. What is she doing?
-This roundup of the juiciest celebrity blind items of the year is quality content!
-Vera Farmiga challenges Liam Neeson in The Commuter trailer.
