Anna Kendrick and Bill Hader Are Dating

-Over the weekend, I sent my friend DeuxMoi’s item about how Anna Kendrick and Bill Hader are rumoured to be dating, because them as a couple just makes so much sense to me. People has now confirmed it, with sources saying they’ve been “quietly” dating for more than a year and “she’s really happy.” The costarred in the 2019 Disney+ Christmas movie Noelle.

–Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes are fueling reconciliation rumors after she publicly supported his new music.

-Buffy star Charisma Carpenter has responded to recent remarks made by Joss Whedon, calling him “a former tyrannical narcissistic boss who is still unable to be accountable and just apologize.”

–Tom Holland is reportedly in the running to be the 2022 Oscar host. I don’t hate this. He’s got the biggest movie of the year, and we know from his Rihanna lip sync that he’s game for anything.

–Sia says she was suicidal and entered rehab following the outrage over her feature directorial debut, Music. Kathy Griffin defended her, saying “the attacks she received were because of kind of sexism, ageism and misogyny”, though autistic people who got caught in the crossfire aren’t buying it.

-I don’t have a lot of interest in a series based on Fatal Attraction — or at least I didn’t until Joshua Jackson and Lizzy Caplan were cast as the leads.

–Pamela Anderson and her fourth husband are splitting after one year of marriage.

–Robert Pattinson‘s The Batman is 2 hours and 47 minutes long – without credits. What are we doing here, guys?

–Hilarie Burton and Bethany Joy Lenz are joining their One Tree Hill costar Sophia Bush in an upcoming episode of her new CBS show, Good Sam. I love that these three are still so tight but also, what great marketing. If my TL is any indication, OTH love still runs deep.

-The White Lotus is heading to Sicily for its second season.

-Season two of Upload (starring the good Amell) debuts on March 11. I really liked the first one.

-Crews on film and TV shows are worried about how lax covid protocols have gotten.

-The reviews of The Gilded Age are good, but with Carrie Coon and Christine Baranski starring, I’m going to watch it either way.

Priyanka Chopra vanity fair

–Priyanka Chopra covers Vanity Fair and talks about the social media frenzy that followed after she dropped Nick Jonas‘ name from her Instagram handle. “It’s a very vulnerable feeling, actually, that if I post a picture, everything that’s behind me in that picture is going to be zoomed in on, and people are going to speculate.”

-In a new Harper’s Bazaar profile, artist Anna Marie Tendler reflected on her “surreal and shocking” divorce from comedian John Mulaney.

–Britney Spears has responded to her sister Jamie Lynn’s recent ABC News interview in multiple Instagram posts. Britney’s first post mentioned that she had a fever of 104 but her security team wouldn’t leave the premises to get her medicine (or, presumably, a covid test?!), while her latest post said that her sister had “stooped to a whole new level of LOW” and denied Jamie Lynn’s story that she once grabbed a knife and locked them in a room.

–Pete Davidson won’t be hosting the Oscars, mostly because he’s too tied to NBC and the show airs on ABC.

–Anne Hathaway‘s new look is giving people Devil Wears Prada vibes.

-Everyone leaving Lady Gaga hanging out to dry in this clip from an actress roundtable is amazing.

–Geena Davis says she was once denied a role because the leading man said she was too old, even though he was older than her.

-Here’s Prada’s new menwear campaign with Tom Holland.

-This is an excellent debate on the quality of Station Eleven. Personally, I think it’s the best show I’ve seen in ages, but it took me a while to figure out that I liked the odd numbered episodes so much more, and that was because the even numbered ones tended to focus on the travelling symphony. I still haven’t watched the finale yet cause I adored episode 9 so much, I kind of want to savor it.

-Speaking of buzzy shows, I like this piece about how Yellowjackets is great because you can either get really deep into theorizing or just ignore the theories completely. (I need to catch up on episodes, but I also think the comparison to Annihilation is spot on.)

-Aw man, Netflix is raising its prices again in the US and Canada.

-Orange Is the New Black’s Danielle Brooks showed off her wedding pics. That dress is stunning.

-Here’s the trailer for Netflix’s limited series Inventing Anna, which is Shonda Rhimes‘ latest and is getting lots of buzz.

Katherine Heigl Is Done Being Shunned

-This is an interesting interview with Katherine Heigl, in which she talks about how her “difficult” label crushed her career. On one hand, she made some valid points about Knocked Up at the time and the world owes her an apology about the backlash (same with Megan Fox re: her comments about Michael Bay). On the other hand, rumours about her and her mother’s behaviour on set were legendary.  In any case, her 27 Dresses costar James Marsden has her back, saying in the article: “She has very strong convictions and strong opinions on certain things, and she doesn’t back down from letting you know if she feels like she’s been wronged in any way. I’ve always seen that as just strength of character.”

–Machine Gun Kelly is performing on SNL this weekend and Megan Fox joined him on his way to rehearsals — where she was spotted wearing what looks like an engagement ring.

-Whoever is doing Mariah Carey‘s social strategy continues to crush it.

–T.I. and Tiny are denying the rumours that surfaced on social media this week, alleging the couple drugged and assaulted women. They released a statement: “Mr. and Mrs. Harris want to be on record and more importantly want the public to know they emphatically deny in the strongest way possible the egregiously appalling allegations being made against them by Sabrina Peterson. The Harrises have had difficulty with this woman for well over a decade. They are taking this matter very seriously.”

–Amy Schumer still doesn’t really understand how she ended up in the drama involving Hilaria Baldwin.

-The two stars of Pen15 are both pregnant, which should make for an interesting new season.

–Anne Hathaway has joined Jared Leto in a new Apple TV+ series about the spectacular rise and fall of WeWork. Let’s hope he doesn’t welcome her to the cast by sending her a dead rat.

-In today’s Actors on Actors interview, Amanda Seyfried tells Vanessa Kirby: “I wish I could redo ‘Les Miz’ completely, because the whole live singing aspect just — I still have nightmares about it”.

-This is a great tribute to Cicely Tyson, who passed away yesterday. Lenny Kravitz, who was her godson, also posted a lovely tribute.

-Vanity Fair has gotten wind of Jessica Mulroney’s interview the National Post from last week. Unlike most Canadians, they seem unaware of the columnist and her, um, reputation.

-This oral history of the Super Bowl episode of Friends is packed with juicy tidbits! Brooke Shields‘ then-boyfriend Andre Agassi yelled at her after her dinner scene with Matt Leblanc (“I see him come down, pull Brooke aside and eviscerate her because he’s crazy-jealous. She’s reduced to tears! I broke the show for awhile, and the girls took Brooke aside and loved her, took care of her and got her back on that stage. She did great because of the support of those three. He was a jackass”). Matthew Perry flirted over fax with Julia Roberts. (“She was giving him these questionnaires like, “Why should I go out with you?” And everyone in the writers room helped him explain to her why.”) Chris Isaak couldn’t really act (“Such a swell guy. But his scenes with Phoebe? It was like working with a salmon”). Jean-Claude Van Damme showed up hours late and was too aggressive in his kissing scenes (“Having completely blown up our shooting day, we had to scramble. Then he’s unprepared and arrogant!”)

–Tim Robbins has filed for divorce from Gratiela Brancusi — whom no one knew he was married to.

-The Armie Hammer stories continue to be messed up.
