Casey Affleck

Jennifer Aniston’s Office Party

ew-jennifer-aniston

-I have a lot of thoughts about EW’s new cover photo, mostly on how I can’t believe TJ Miller nabbed the centre spot instead of Jennifer Aniston, and how embarrassed I am for Courtney B Vance…

–Kanye West is reportedly “very happy” to be out of the hospital more than a week after checking in for extreme exhaustion.

–Johnny Depp will finally pay Amber Heard’s divorce settlement. How nice of him.

-This is a really, really good piece about how we need to talk about Casey Affleck. I really want to see Manchester By The Sea, but the sexual assault allegations against him give me pause. It’s the reason I refused to see Birth of a Nation. But Nate Parker got dragged by the media, while no one’s really mentioning Affleck‘s court settlement.

–Andrew Garfield says that if he were stranding on a desert island, he’d want ex-girlfriend Emma Stone with him.

–Mariah Carey packed on the PDA with backup dancer Bryan Tanaka in Hawaii. Is this because she’s trying to get us to watch her new docuseries? ‘Cause it’s totally working!

-Lifetime is doing a Britney Spears/Justin Timberlake biopic, and the actors they cast look terrible. Which means I’m going to watch the crap out of it.

–Amy Sherman-Palladino says in the Gilmore Girls revival, Rory made all those transatlantic flights on points. That’s…not a thing.

-If Katy Perry is preggo (and I doubt she is), this is a weird ass way to announce it.

-Jurassic World 2 director Colin Trevorrow is making sure everyone knows that he’ll be putting Bryce Dallas Howard in practical footwear this time around.

–Chris Pratt is cropping Jennifer Lawrence out of all his photos, which is all kinds of hilarious.

-CW’s crossover week continues. The ratings from Arrow’s excellent 100th episode doubled from last week and beat Supergirl’s crossover.

-The full Hamilton mixtape has dropped!

–James Corden threw food at Jessica Alba and Kate Mara to see if they’d flinch. Spoiler alert: they did.

–Tom Cruise tries to convince us mummies are real in the first footage from The Mummy.

Dwayne Johnson Is the Sexiest Man Alive

-Lainey was right: Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has officially been named People’s Sexiest Man Alive. Meh. As long as it’s not Justin Timberlake, I’m happy. And it’s their first non-white dude in 20 years!

-I feel like we all needed this vintage celebrity gossip nugget from Carrie Fisher, who just revealed that she had an “intense” affair with Harrison Ford during Star Wars. “It was Han and Leia during the week, and Carrie and Harrison during the weekend.”

-I don’t know why I enjoyed this clip of Snoop Dogg and Busy Philipps making ornaments so much, but that’s just where I’m at with life right now, I guess.

-Jesus. Celebrities are so freaked out about Trump that this HTGAWM guy felt the need to clarify that he just PLAYS gay on TV.  Blech.

-Wait, Casey Affleck is dating the new girl on Supergirl? I like her!

-It only took 24 hours for the Beauty and the Beast trailer to beat Star Wars and become the most watched trailer ever. I approve.

–Andy Cohen‘s story about Taylor Swift and Katy Perry is giving me life.

-The Office’s Angela Kinsey got married –– and her new hubby is a hottie.

-Are we really supposed to believe that Billy Bob Thorton still talks to Angelina Jolie?! Really?

-Wow. Chris Evans really is Captain America.

-I’m going to go ahead and NOT read this story about what would happen to your body if you actually ate like a Gilmore Girl.

-Finally, someone asked Sandra Oh about her phone call scene in the Princess Diaries.

-Critics are really, really liking the new Fantastic Beasts movie. Whew!

-Meanwhile, Eddie Redmayne starred in an emotional pro-Hufflepuff PSA.

-There’s a new Los Campesinos song, which exactly the kind of shouty pop we need right now.

-Just when I was starting to feel like all my superhero TV shows were sucking, CW puts out a trailer for its big, four-night crossover. Ugh, fine!

-The first trailer for Ghost in the Shell weirdly seems to leans in to its whitewashing controversy by having the first image be of a robotic geisha.

What’s Next For Brangelina’s Custody Agreement?

–Brangelina‘s temporary custody agreement ends tomorrow, and sources tell People negotiations remain “strained.” Meanwhile, Angelina and the kids were reportedly interviewed by the FBI on Tuesday.

–Emma Stone kicked her Oscar campaign into high gear by bringing Jennifer Lawrence as her date to a La La Land screening.  Frankly, I think she and Ryan Gosling will have it in the bag if they just recreate this scene on every red carpet for the next couple of months.

-Proving that everyone really does know everyone else in Hollywood, Tobey Maguire was photographed partying with Justin Bieber’s ex Sofia Richie just before his split announcement.

-Meanwhile, Justin Bieber would like fans to express their excitement at his concerts with polite head nods. If you’re *really* feeling it, you can tap your toes. But only if you must.

–Rihanna‘s employee’s  created a pinata of her head for Boss Appreciation Day because they clearly don’t value their personal safety.

-I’m weirdly proud that Robbie Amell and Italia Ricci are big enough stars to get a full spread in Us Weekly devoted to their wedding. I hope they made lots of bank from it. (Too bad the photo of her chowing down on a Big Mac at the reception only made the print edition.)

-Is anyone else noticing that all the superhero shows are bottoming out in the ratings this season? Are we superhero’d out?

-I have questions about Rory in the new Gilmore Girls posters. Mainly, why didn’t they give her a sweater? And why doesn’t she hold objects like a normal human being?

–Ellen Degeneres has laughed off those rumours that she and Portia are getting a divorce in her new People cover story.

–Sarah Jessica Parker says rumours of a feud with Kim Cattrall “confound” and “upset” her.

–Scarlett Johansson is opening a gourmet popcorn shop in Paris. Um, ok.

–Colin Firth joining Emily Blunt in the Mary Poppins reboot sounds kinda perfect.

–Lindsay Lohan wants to help Syrian refugees…by giving them energy drinks. Aw sweetie, Red Bull won’t *actually* give them wings.

–Michael Moore dropped a surprise movie about Trump last night.

–Laura Benanti returned to the Late Show last night with her pitch-perfect Melania impression.

-Meanwhile, Amy Schumer wrote an open letter to Tampa after a bunch of Trump supporters walked out of her show.

-I’m so curious to see if Casey Affleck‘s sexual assault accusations are going to derail his Oscar chances like Nate Parker‘s did. The Magic 8 Ball seems to indicate “not at this time.”

-Meanwhile, Birth of a Nation could lose $10M for Fox.

-The first teaser for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is here and it’s pretty damn great. Baby Groot!
