-Moonlight’s Mahershala Ali is already having a big weekend. He and his wife just welcomed a baby boy.

–Seth Rogen and Charlize Theron are going to costar in a romcom because that’s totally believable.

-Is it weird that there are a bunch of Girls reviews out already, even though the show doesn’t air until Sunday? I guess they didn’t want us to miss the episode (which is reportedly great) amid all the Oscars noise.

-I like this theory: the longer Adam Scott’s beard is, the less likable his character will be.

George and Amal Clooney Are Having Twins

-Sweet baby jesus! Those rumours about Amal Clooney having twins actually turned out to be true! I can barely wrap by head around this. If someone had told me five years ago that George Clooney (who has spoken eloquently and passionately about not wanted kids in the past) would now be married and facing double diaper duty, I would have laughed in their face — and then tried to sell them a bridge. Also in “I can’t believe this is happening” news: Julie Chen of the The Talk broke the story and says the twins are due in June! What is life?!

-In other baby news from pretty people, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Jason Statham are expecting.

–Scarlett Johansson is getting flak for her Marie Claire interview, in which she justifies her Ghost in the Shell casting by saying “I certainly would never presume to play another race of a person” but that “having a franchise with a female protagonist driving it is such a rare opportunity.” Hmmm. Not exactly intersectional feminism.

-Nice: Amy Poehler is developing a comedy for HBO.

-News that Fleabag creator and star Phoebe Waller-Bridge may be joining the Han Solo standalone film is making me stupidly happy.

-The cast of the Vampire Diaries are doing a really good job of pretending they like each other as filming wraps up.

-It sounds like Jenny Slate is having a hard time with her split from Chris Evans.

-Not gonna lie: Chris Evans fighting David Duke on Twitter is really doing it for me.

–Jake Gyllenhaal talking about the Tonys is kinda doing it for me too…

–Kelly Clarkson says a cancer scare “ruined” the first time she won at the Grammys.

-The Good Fight (The Good Wife’s spinoff that is web-only in the US) will be airing on W in Canada. Yay!

-I think the only teen show I’m watching these days is Sweet/Vicious, but I still really appreciated this article on how teen dramas are the perfect cure for prestige TV blues.

-It’s not in theatres until this summer and I’ve already sent a group text to my girlfriends warning them that we’re seeing Girl Trip opening night, based on this (very NSFW) trailer alone.

Beyonce Interviews Solange

solange-beyonce-interview

–Beyonce will no longer be interviewed (apparently), but she interviews her sister Solange in the new issue of Interview and it’s everything you could ever hope for. An actual question: “What are some misconceptions about being a strong woman?”

-Fences mended? Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were spotted at Jay Z and Beyoncé’s house.

–Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have released their first joint statement since she filed for divorce in September, saying “The parents are committed to act as a united front to effectuate recovery and reunification.” Huh?

–Johnny Depp is reportedly continuing to drag his feet on paying his divorce settlement.

-In Madonna‘s new Harper’s Bazaar cover story, she talks about the nightmare of the Trump presidency and reveals that she calls rosé “summer water” (hey, I did it first!).

-TMZ reported that Jamie Foxx was violently attacked at an LA restaurant and he responded by pretending he was … but he wasn’t? Cool story, bro.

–Tom Hiddleston has apologized for that really terrible acceptance speech.

-The Amal Clooney pregnancy rumours are picking up steam.

-This is a great read on Sterling K Brown’s incredible year.

-I really like this take on how The Crazy Ex-Girlfriend renewal offers a preview of where TV might be going. It’s the lowest-rated show ever to be renewed by a major broadcast network, but its deals with CBS and Netflix (as well as its critical acclaim) give it wiggle room.

-So, there’s an actual chance that Deadpool could get a Best Picture Oscar nom. For real.

–Matthew McConaughey and Bryce Dallas Howard star in the red band Gold trailer.
