Anna Kendrick’s In the Hot Seat

Anna Kendrick appeared on Hot Ones and got the giggles when things started going bad. “Justin Timberlake did warn me that he did the show and he was like ‘By the end of it, you feel drunk’ and I’m just beginning to get a little bit of that.”

Britney Spears is once again pleading for people to respect her privacy after concerned fans called police to her house to do a wellness check following the singer’s deactivation of her Instagram account. “I love and adore my fans but this time things went a little too far and my privacy was invaded. This felt like I was being gaslit and bullied once the incident made it to the news and being portrayed once again in a poor and unfair light by the media. During this time in my life, I truly hope the public and my fans who I care so much about can respect my privacy moving forward.”

Pamela Anderson covers Variety and talks about the time her first boyfriend kicked her out of a moving car (“He pushed me with his foot so hard, I had no choice but to open the door when the car was moving and rolled straight into a ditch…I landed a perfect gymnast dismount”), Tim Allen flashing her on the set of Home Improvement (“Tim is a comedian, it’s his job to cross the line. I’m sure he had no bad intentions. Times have changed, though. I doubt anyone would try that post #MeToo. It’s a new world”), and the time she walked in on Jack Nicholson having a threesome in a bathroom (“Mr. Nicholson had two beautiful women with him. They were all giggling and kissing up against the wall, sliding all over each other. I walked by to use the mirror, bending over the sink to fix my lip gloss. Trying not to look, but I couldn’t help myself and caught his eye in the reflection. I guess that got him to the finish line, because he made a funny noise, smiled and said, ‘Thanks, dear'”).

-The Recruit, starring Noah Centineo, has been renewed at Netflix — despite the fact that I’ve never heard anyone talk about watching it.

Chelsea Handler tells Variety, “Yeah, the whole town is on Ozempic…My sister was like ‘my doctor said there’s no way he would give that to me’ and I’m like ‘Well, come to Los Angeles. You can get it probably at the 7/11.”

-The Bear breakout star Ayo Edebiri has reportedly joined the cast of Marvel’s Thunderbolts. Get that MCU money, girl!

-Gossip Girl’s creator talked about reshaping last night’s episode into a series finale after he found out the show was cancelled. “I asked HBO Max if I actually could go back in [to the episode]. I had the idea to take some of the cliffhangers out, because there were a lot of cliffhangers. We got the editorial team back together. I went in and I lifted a bunch of stuff, I changed as much as I could. I couldn’t do as much as I wanted, because I couldn’t re-shoot anything, obviously.”

Pedro Pascal will be hosting SNL in Feb alongside musical guest Coldplay. I demand at least two daddy skits.

-Meanwhile, here’s Michael B Jordan’s promos for this week’s show.

Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni are attached to star in the film adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s best-selling novel, It Ends With Us. Man, I don’t get everyone’s obsession with that book. I keep seeing BookTok recommending it as the “best romance” — even though it’s about domestic abuse.

-Twitter’s “Menswear Guy,” is just as perplexed as you are as to why he’s suddenly dominating everyone’s “for you” page on Twitter.

-This is the Shotgun Wedding review I was looking for: “Maybe the last three years have made us all long for an island escape with the beloved actresses that have a long history of offering viewers the movie equivalent of comfort food. So, if you can put your cynicism aside, RSVP ‘yes’ to Shotgun Wedding.”

-Succession is back on March 26! Here’s the first full trailer. God, I missed these assholes.

-Speaking of exciting TV trailers, here’s our first teaser for the Party Down revival, with guest spots from Jennifer Garner, Quinta Brunson and more. So glad to have these pink bowtied freaks back in our lives!

-Here’s the first Shazam! Fury of the Gods trailer, costarring Adam Brody, Rachel Zegler, Lucy Liu and Helen Mirren.
