Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello’s Montreal Date Night

–Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello have taken their PDA tour to Montreal.

-Twitter is in chaos over this late-breaking Deadline report that Sony has ended its agreement with Marvel Studios, pulling Spider-Man out of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with Kevin Feige no longer being a part of the production of the sequels. The knee jerk reaction is that this is a really bad move on Sony’s part, who seem to believe that their success with Venom and Into the Spiderverse means they’re creatively strong enough to go it alone. But I can’t help but wonder if Disney leaked the news of the breakdown in talks to get fans all riled up and make the optics so bad they they force Sony to accept Disney’s bonkers demand for a 50/50 profit split. The next Tom Holland-led Spider-Man movie isn’t supposed to land until 2022. That’s a lot of time to weaponize fan outcry and negotiate using the press.

-Speaking of crazy movie news, Matrix 4 is officially a go with Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss and Lana Wachowski all signed on. What is happening today?!?

-A second person has come forward accusing Katy Perry of sexual harassment.

-This Variety cover story about how celebrities are  driving the podcast revolution is … odd. Nearly every good podcast I’ve listened to, from when I started ten years ago to today, comes from writers/journalists.

–Adam Brody shot down rumours of a reboot of The OC but honestly, I could see it happening based on where all those actors ended up career-wise.

–Brody Jenner is speaking up for his ex Kaitlynn Carter, saying there is “far too much negativity” being directed at her since photos of her and Miley Cyrus surfaced. Which is kind of a decent thing for him to do, so I’m very confused.

-Oh and Brody and Kaitlynn weren’t actually married. Neither were Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux. This article about all the celebrities who’ve had weddings without legally getting married is bananas.

-The most followed YouTuber, PewDiePie, just got married. The teen in your life really cares about this, trust.

-I don’t watch Neftlix’s Elite, but my entire TL was very excited about this new season 2 trailer.

-This is the time of year when TV DVD sets hit, which means this is when we get the most blooper reels. Here’s the latest from Arrow, Schitt’s Creek, and Riverdale.

-It’s crazy to me that a British dramedy that critics are comparing to Fleabag and that stars Sharon Horgan from Catastrophe and Tobias Menzies from Outlander is not only debuting this week to so little fanfare that I had never even heard about it before Sepinwall posted his review, but a bunch of TV critics whose job it is to know these things were also in the dark.

-Succession has been renewed for season 3. I love those rich assholes.

–Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver break down a Marriage Story in two new teasers for Noah Baumbach‘s upcoming drama, which tells the story of a divorce from two different perspectives.

Adam Brody & Ben McKenzie Have Big Baby News (Unrelated, Sadly)

-It’s a huge day for The OC alums. Adam Brody and Leighton Meester welcomed a baby girl (who they adorably named Arlo Day), while Ben McKenzie is reportedly expecting a baby with Gotham costar Morena Baccarin. The pregnancy bombshell dropped in the middle of her divorce case, so this should be interesting…

-Congrats to Usher and Grace Miguel, who tied the knot.

-Oof. This comparision of critical reactions to Ryan Adams‘ cover version of 1989 versus Taylor Swift’s original work is devastatingly sexist.

-Rumours of trouble in Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady’s marriage continue to swirl.

-I’m kind of loving Jimmy Kimmel‘s new method of making stars read mean tweets live, especially when it’s clear that they didn’t sneak a peek beforehand. Andrew Garfield’s reaction to being compared to a pedophile who lives in an RV is priceless.

–Jimmy Fallon got Keenan & Kel to reunite on his show for a “Good Burger” sketch and it was wonderful.

-This is great: the ladies of The Office recreated a photo they took five years ago. I really had to squint to figure out which one was the new one, which I guess means they’re all aging really well!

-I really liked the bits in this article talking about what a tough interview Shonda Rhimes is.

-Also, if you’re tweeting about Scandal’s premiere tonight and don’t like Olitz (because you’re a sane, rational person), you might want to avoid using the #Scandal hashtag. It’ll automatically add a ‘shippery emoji to your tweet.

–Pierce Brosnan doesn’t have high hopes for the next James Bond: “Anything is possible for sure, but I think he’ll be male and he’ll be white.”

–Robert Pattinson admits that Twihards “drove him crazy.” Gee, ya think?

-Even Ryan Reynolds can’t figure out how to build IKEA units.

–Kanye West sees himself as a 17-year-old adopted child of the fashion industry. Well, he’s got the “child” part right…

–Maggie Gyllenhaal just joined James Franco‘s HBO series about porn, which means we all have to watch it now. Sigh.

-My feelings for Terrence Howard prevent me from watching Empire, but damn this picture of its writers’ room makes me think they’re doing something right.

-Also last night’s Empire premiere got a 16M viewers and a 6.5 rating in the A18-49 demo. That’s INSANE these days. It certainly dominated my Twitter TL all night. (My favourite part of this ratings article is the last line: “At 10 p.m., Nashville (5 million, 1.3) existed.”)

-Guys, I would totally eat at Gwyneth Paltrow’s food truck. I can’t be alone in this, right?!

–Jeff Daniels explains the stakes in this new clip from The Martian.

 

Leighton Meester and Adam Brody Got Secret Married!

-Congrats to Leighton Meester and Adam Brody: they tied the knot in a secret wedding. (I love that she had her bachelorette party at the drag bar chain Hamburger Mary’s.) Blair Waldorf and Seth Cohen 4 eva!

-It’s still way too early to make a verdict about Jimmy Fallon as the new host of The Tonight Show (not that that’s stopping anyone), but he started out really strong last night with a dance number with Will Smith and a parade of celebrities handing him $100 bills (do you think Tina Fey and Lindsay Lohan talked about their Mean Girls days in the green room or just pretended they didn’t see each other?). The ratings were good, too.

–Justin Timberlake appears on Fallon later this week. Is he going to drop some big news?

-To compete with Fallon’s first show, David Letterman had the cast of How I Met Your Mother read last night’s Top 10 list.

-Speaking of HIMYM, lots of hipsters feel betrayed by Greta Gerwig‘s decision to star in the sequel. But just think of all the artisanal hemp seed marmalade she can make with that CBS money!

–Gwyneth Paltrow‘s rep denied a Whisper post about her having an affair with entertainment lawyer Kevin Yorn — and then asked what Whisper was. Classic.

–Rihanna looks amazing in the latest issue of Vogue. Too bad her cover story barely talks about her at all.

-Way to go, Twihards. You’ve gone and scared poor Robert Pattinson away.

-Post-rehab Selena Gomez instagramed a photo of her drinking what looks like an alcoholic beverage, which I guess is ok after you’ve made your reps insist the treatment had nothing to do with substance abuse issues.

-Meanwhile, Selena‘s reportedly been spotted hanging out with Niall Horan from One Direction.

-Congrats to Josh Gad, who just welcomed his second daughter, and Jason Biggs, who has a new son.

–Kristen Bell, who’s auctioning off a date to the Veronica Mars premiere, rages against the “f*cking crazy” paparazzi in a new interview.

-Speaking of Veronica Mars, Chris Lowell is sharing lots of artsy behind-the-scenes pics from the film shoot on his Instagram account.

-Pretty much everyone who’s anyone has remixed Beyonce’s “Drunk in Love.”

-The couple that shills together, stays together? Ryan Reynolds joins wife Blake Lively as a L’Oreal spokesperson.

–Marc Anthony says he and Jennifer Lopez‘s boyfriend are BFFs who braid each other’s hair and discuss their secret hopes and dreams.

-89-year-old Elaine Stritch showed up on the Today Show this morning and dropped an f-bomb on live TV. As if that wasn’t boss enough, she then followed it up with this tweet.

-It’s Kate Winslet vs. Shailene Woodley in this new clip from Divergent.

–Matthew McConaughey is talking about the “McConaissance” on the cover of this week’s Variety.

-Meanwhile, is McConaughey this year’s Julia Roberts?

-Does any celebrity get Twitter better than Orlando Jones? I don’t think so.

–Kanye West and Kim Kardashian’s full engagement extravaganza aired on her reality show, in case you needed more video evidence of humanity’s downfall.

-It’s adorbs that everyone seems to believe that story about how Taylor Swift supposedly saved herself for Jake Gyllenhaal.

–Victoria Beckham played coy when asked if she had her breast implants removed.

–Rebel Wilson and Ellen Degeneres showed off their terrible rap skills on Ellen’s show.

-Sundance has been on a roll lately when it comes to showcasing really amazing shows (Top of the Lake, The Returned, Rectify), so I’m intrigued by their new drama Red Road. You can watch the first 12 minutes here.

-Check out The National’s new video for “I Need My Girl,” and listen to Beck‘s new album stream here.

-Wait, so Cara Delevingne and Michelle Rodriguez are officially a couple now?

-There were so many beards at the BAFTA awards, you guys.

-A Bachelor contestant from Ottawa sounds surprisingly awesome — which is probably why she dropped out of the competition.

-Shameless, which has quietly been kicking ass this season, just got renewed by Showtime.

-Everyone’s in a tizzy about the 15-second teaser trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy. I’m still not sold on this talking racoon thing, but hello’s Chris Pratt’s abs! He’ll be premiering the full trailer tonight on Kimmel (and is soliciting suggestions for secret signals).
