Amy Schumer Talks Love and Sex Dreams

amy-schumer-marie-claire

-This Marie Claire cover is my favourite yet of Amy Schumer. In the interview, she talks about finding love (“I feel so bad for him. How exhausting it must be dating me”), dealing with her newfound fame (“I’m trying to figure out how to navigate all this”) and a recent sex dream she had about pal Jemima Kirke (“I almost told her about it. Then I thought maybe Lena would get jealous.”).

-No, Tom Hiddleston. No. You do not get to participate in the most publicity-baiting relationship/stunt for weeks and then get all flustered and perturbed when asked about it like that’s an unexpected question. ALL THE NOPES.

-Meanwhile, is Taylor Swift gunning for a couples Vogue cover? Someone send me an invite to the prayer circle!

-Also, Taylor Swift tops Forbes’ list of the highest paid celebrities — but  it was Kim Kardashian who made the mag’s cover.

Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk‘s camps insist they were not fighting at Wimbledon. Even though they ran into his ex Suki Waterhouse. And the whole world watched this video. But nope, nothing to see here, folks.

-I’m really glad Samira Wiley‘s most memorable moment from TO’s Pride parade wasn’t the crazy girl who kept yelling “SAMIRAAAAAA!” until she waved at me. I mean her. Waved at her. The girl. Who wasn’t me.

-This is so smart: Mr Robot briefly premiered three days early on Twitter, Youtube and Snapchat. Whoever was running their social media was having a blast with it, too.

Alanis Morissette named her new baby Onyx Solace. Mmkay.

Liv Tyler also welcomed a baby girl. She named her Lula Rose, which is adorable.

Snoop Dogg on Family Feud is surprisingly delightful!

-This story about Prince being a secret computer nerd made me stupidly happy.

-Of course Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx dined at Kasa Moto when they were here. Of course they did.

Lin-Manuel Miranda with short hair is making me feel …things.

Shonda Rhimes has no time for Italian TV’s “inexcusable” censorship of HTGAWM’s gay sex scene.

-Just in case you were worried, Kristen Stewart is still cool AF.

-She’s also gunning for a female Bond.

-Guys, the Ghostbusters movie is getting good reviews! Like really, really good reviews. Praise Baby Jebus! (And screw the haters.)

-Meanwhile, in his new Vulture profilePaul Feig says “I wanted for little girls to be able to see themselves up on the screen.” This adorable photo from the screening proves he nailed it.

-Speaking of the premiere, Leslie Jones slayed in a Pretty Woman-inspired red gown, but I also think this was the best-ever showings from Melissa McCartney and Kristen Wiig.

-Are Rihanna and Drake legit official now? They both paid tribute to a fan who passed away. And then there’s this.

-I’m actually surprised Blake Lively allowed her Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants costars to post this makeup-free pic.

-Oooh, this is such good news: Carrie Coon just signed on to be the lead in Fargo season 3.  She is basically the only reason I stuck with The Leftovers after its dismal first season, and I’m so glad I did. (Seriously, if you didn’t watch season 2, binge it ASAP.) Vulture just named her the Best TV Actress of 2106; watch the second clip embedded in that article if you want to understand why.

Simon Pegg wrote a thoughtful blog post on the decision to reveal Sulu as gay.

Gwyneth Paltrow is in Newfoundland? Please someone tell me there’s video of her being screeched in!

-THR’s full, uncensored Comedy Actress Roundtable with Ilana Glazer, Lily Tomlin, Niecy Nash, Gina Rodriguez, Allison Janney and Rachel Bloom is now online and ready for your eyeballs.

-Roadies episodes have been piling up on my DVR because even though the negative reviews aren’t making me want to watch it, I feel like I have to give Cameron Crowe joints a chance for nostalgia reasons, you know? But then I saw the Twitter/critic uproar over how a sexual assault was depicted on this week’s episode, and now I feel pretty good about deleting them all sight unseen.

-I read this entire review of Johnny Depp’s concert in my morning paper waiting for any mention of the assault allegations against him. Nada.

-Community’s Dan Harmon insists the movie part of #sixseasonsandamovie will happen.

Matt Damon multi-tasks in this new Jason Bourne clip.

Scarlett Johansson and Matthew McConaughey lend their voices to the Sing trailer.

Taylor Swift Is Dating Tom Hiddleston?!?

taylor-swift-tom-hiddleston-Holy crap, guys. The Sun has photos — and an amazing headline — of Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston making out on a beach!  (I have renewed Hiddleston-love after binging The Night Manager. He got the juice, ladies. We’re talking orange, apple, grape, cran.) Also, are those photos staged, or is her life just naturally this picturesque? I mean, the shot where he’s taking off his jacket to wrap around her shoulders because she looks cold? WHAT IS AIR?!?

-Meanwhile, judging by Calvin Harris‘ recent Twitter activity, he knew this was coming. That makes me like it even more.

-I am much less giddy about Ashley Olsen‘s rumoured new beau.

-Genetically blessed Blake Lively complains that she has “meaty eyelids.” That sounds super tragic. Let’s all light a candle.

-I despise bump watch. Despise  it. It’s gross and invasive and seems to always focus on the same handful of female celebs — like Jennifer Aniston, who sparked speculation with these pap pics from the Bahamas earlier this week. The only thing that made me wonder if there was something to the story was the bulky outfit she wore in NYC upon her return. But her rep quickly shot down the pregnancy rumours — and she reinforced the denial by being photographed in a tank top today.  (Is it weird that I’m glad? I texted my BFF when the InTouch cover came out and we were lamenting over the fact that she’s one of the few famous role models left for women who don’t need kids to be happy. Cameron Diaz can’t be our last hope!)

-Bless Prince William for appearing on the cover of gay magazine Attitude. Couldn’t have come at a better time.

Johnny Depp’s lawyer has asked the judge to prevent Amber Heard’s witnesses from testifying at Friday’s hearing. That’s swell.

-Vulture posted another awesome deep-dive feature on the state of TV. For this one, they spoke to 137 actors, writers, producers and execs about TV comedy. (Spoiler alert: they’re all in love with Catastrophe.)

Justin Bieber asked his fans to “petition” to shut down gossip site Hollywood Life — possibly because of their articles about Selena Gomez dating. Aw, muffin.

-Is Rachel McAdams dating a hot screenwriter?

-Did ABC really consider cutting The Real O’Neals’s episode order after Noah Galvin‘s incendiary interview? But that was, like, the first time most of us had even heard of that show.

-I can’t wait to watch the full video of THR’s comedy actress roundtable, which features Gina Rodriguez, Allison Janney, Rachel Bloom, Niecy Nash, Lily Tomlin and Ilana Glazer. Janney already wins it with this story: “I went to a bar one night and a bartender said, ‘I don’t mean to insult you, but you look just like Allison Janney.’ And I said, ‘Now tell me why would that be an insult, I’m curious.’ He said, ‘Well, you’re just a lot prettier than she is.’ And I said, ‘Well, I am her, and my drinks will be free for the rest of the evening.'”

-This article suggests Marvel could fix all its problems by re-watching Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog. Funny, that’s my life philosophy, too.

-The American Gods casting news continues to excite. Orlando Jones just joined the show.

Tom Cruise and Cobie Smulders battle baddies in the first trailer for the new Jack Reacher movie.

Wait, Is Taylor Swift in the New X-Men Movie?

Sophie Turner has reignited rumors that Taylor Swift plays Dazzler in X-Men: Apocalypse.

Sara Ramirez tweeted cryptic gossip about maybe leaving Grey’s Anatomy and the internet was not happy. I’m surprised people still care that much about this show.

-10 Cloverfield Lane’s Dan Trachtenberg is going to direct an episode of Black Mirror, so that should be terrifyingly good.

-Say what you will about Ryan Reynolds and how he allegedly acts on sets, but this is beyond sweet.

-The Punisher is getting his own Netflix show, starring Jon Bernthal. I haven’t gotten past the first episode of Daredevil S2, but he was ok, I guess?

-This is wonderful: Allison Janney took over a White House press briefing in character as C. J. Cregg from The West Wing.

Margaret Atwood‘s The Handmaid’s Tale is getting the series treatment on Hulu — starring Elisabeth Moss no less. Perfect casting! (I wish it  wasn’t written and run by a dude, but small victories.)

-I love Kelly Ripa with her gloves off! She brought up Michael Strahan’s divorce on live TV and it was all kinds of cringe-worthy.

-More reports are coming in about how tense things have been between Ripa and Strahan for a while.

-Here’s our first look at Emma Stone as Bille Jean King.

-The Obamas are fake feuding with Prince Harry and the Queen on Twitter and it’s adorable.

-I adore this Vulture article in praise of “middlebrow” TV. As much as I love prestige shows like The Americans, Fargo and People vs OJ Simpson, there’s a reason I still have a bunch of episodes from each of those piling up on my DVR: sometimes they feel like homework. When I get home from a long day at work, 9 times out of 10 I’m hitting up my CW faves first.

-Speaking of my CW faves, I’d totally be down with a Crazy Ex-Girlfriend crossover with The Flash.

-Ohhhh…an oral history of the “Hide and Seek” scene from The OC. Yes, please.

Jenna Fischer and James Gunn have totally figured out this whole conscious uncoupling thing.

Kirk Cameron‘s marriage advice is just as terrible as you’d expect.

Shia LaBeouf left a voicemail apologizing to the guy who got beat up for looking like him.

-Watch Barack and Michelle go on a first date in this adorable trailer for Southside.
