Gilmore Girls’ Last Four Words

gilmore-girls-last-four-words

-I’m going to my BFF’s viewing party tomorrow which means I have to stay strong and not watch any of the Gilmore Girls until then, but my Twitter TL seemed not super impressed by the last four words. (Don’t click if, like me, you don’t want to know!)

-Meanwhile, Gilmore Girls star Lauren Graham talks about finally finding love in Hollywood with her Parenthood costar, Peter Krause. Aww.

-Everyone else might be celebrating Black Friday, but I’m celebrating CDAN’s annual blind item reveal day! I take that site with a giant grain of salt, but it’s fun.  The especially juicy reveals are here, here,  here, and here.

-Good news: Kayne West is apparently on the mend.

-These photos of Mariah Carey pretending to grocery shop are giving me life!

-Listen to Scarlett Johansson’s song ‘Set It All Free‘ from the Sing soundtrack.

-Despite reports of a split, Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom spent Thanksgiving together.

-The Walking Dead’s ratings keep hitting new lows. This is what happens when you treat your audience like shit.

–Selena Gomez broke her social media silence with a heartwarming note to her fans, calling her year the “hardest yet most rewarding one yet.”

–Joel Coen and Frances McDormand had a delightful Thanksgiving that involved squats. (This led me down a rabbit hole of their kid’s Instagram — and I stared at this photo for way longer than is probably socially acceptable.)

–Jon Hamm was maybe not the nicest drunk.

–Adele says she’s going to have another baby when her tour wraps. Yay?

–Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt‘s new Passengers trailer is just begging you to guess the twist.

–K-2SO steals the show in the latest Rogue One promo.

Jennifer Lawrence Talks Friendship with Emma Stone

–Jennifer Lawrence continues to expertly straddle the line between relatability and oversharing in her Vanity Fair cover story, revealing that she and Emma Stone texted each other every day for a year, and that her biggest irrational fears are the Zika virus and her privates turning into a “wet sponge.” Kay.

–Kanye West’s condition actually sounds way worse than first reported.

-I go away for a few days and Katy Perry & Orlando Bloom reportedly split? I should vacation more often.

-In THR’s actresses roundtable, Amy Adams rightfully wonders why producers are never asked about the pay gap the way actresses are.

-Meanwhile,  director Tom Ford Googled “best American actresses” before hiring Amy.

-The Gilmore Girls revival drops tomorrow! (I’m not watching until a viewing party on Saturday, which might be the greatest test of my self-control ever.) Here’s what critics are saying.

–Scott Patterson is teasing the last four words of the series. I don’t know why people care about that so much. (For what it’s worth, I’m guessing it’s the name of Amy Sherman-Palladino‘s production company: Dorothy Parker drank here.)

-Also, Lauren Graham just proved she can speak as fast as Lorelai.

-Meanwhile, everyone is expecting the GG revival to break the internet because it’s so much more popular now then when it first aired. This reminds me of the little punk in front of me at the Luke’s popup a couple of weeks ago who was telling his friend that his mom and sister used to watch the show “live! Like, back in the day, with commercials and everything!” I somehow managed to not throat-punch him. OG fans FTW!

-That Spanish fan who was punched by Justin Bieber is may take legal measures. Of course.

–Leah Remini opened up to Ellen about her battle with Scientology: ‘We’ve been victimized.’ She’s demanding the “church” pay her $1.5 million in damages.

–Jon Hamm is cool with the fact that we all know he has a big penis. Ya don’t say.

–Meghan Markle resurfaced on Twitter to thank her friends for being supportive (one can only assume she means during all the Prince Harry hysteria).

-So Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner really are a thing, huh?

-I’m with Lainey on this one. I see Anne Hathaway kissing Cate Blanchett‘s ass way more than I see her being rude, especially on that particular set…

-It really, really bugs me that Chrissy Metz‘s NBC contract for This is Us says that she has to lose weight.

-We finally know what would have happened with Angela and Jordan if My So-Called Life wasn’t cancelled. Said the creator, “I pictured a situation where Angela and Jordan are an item, Delia and Brian are an item, and Angela and Brian are constantly looking to each other for advice and help with their respective dysfunctional relationships.”  Oh, and Patty and Graham would split, obvs.

-I can’t believe Butterball let Stephen Colbert man their turkey hotline, but the results were hilarious. Part 1 and part 2.

-The first full trailer for the CW’s huge four-show crossover is pretty damn epic.

-HBO debuted the Girls final season teaser.

–Lin-Manuel Miranda got SLOSHED for his Hamilton retelling on Drunk History.

–Rashida Jones recalled that time she was attacked by Michael Jackson’s chimpanzee.

-Here’s Adam Driver, Andrew Garfield and Liam Neeson in the trailer for Martin Scorsese’s Silence.

Gilmore Girls Reviews: The Critics Weigh In

gilmore-girls-ew

-The Gilmore Girls EW cover was revealed (what’s with Luke‘s hair?) on the same day that the review embargo was lifted. The general consensus about the revival: it’s messy but occasionally wonderful. TV Line says it’s “exactly like you remember, exactly what you need” (though they’ve basically turned into a fansite), EW gives it a B+, THR’s Daniel Fienberg (who’s always a tough sell) says it is “flawed, but a must for fans,” Alan Sepinwall calls it “kind of a mess, but one we’re glad exists,” Vulture says you may find yourself “more easily spotting some of the flaws that co-exist alongside its charms,” and Variety’s Mo Ryan (who’s opinion I most often agree with) says it’s “sometimes too overstuffed” but it remains “TV comfort food.” Good enough for me! Also, everyone seems to subtly imply that Alexis Bledel remains the weakest link which…yeah.

-Meanwhile, last night Jimmy Fallon revealed that he’s deep in the Gilmore Girls fandom — and he’s #TeamJess. Obviously.

–Lin-Manuel Miranda revealed he’s making a secret Disney film!

-God, I love when Michael Shannon is on a press tour. While promoting Nocturnal Animals, he admitted that he fell asleep during Batman V Superman, and then went OFF when asked about the election.

-In 1966, a 40-year-old Tony Bennett met a pregnant superfan backstage. Decades later, he married the baby.  HE MARRIED THE BABY, GUYS!

-Um, Nick Jonas is making me feel things. Naughty things. I’m so confused.

–Prince‘s estate is suing Jay Z’s Roc Nation for illegally streaming Prince’s music on Tidal .

-You can listen to an excerpt from Anna Kendrick‘s audiobook here.

–Ryan Gosling is just as confused by his Hey, Girl internet fame as you are: “I’ve never said that…Do you remember when Fabio got hit in the face with a pigeon on the roller coaster and it broke his nose? Sometimes I feel like I’m the pigeon and the internet is Fabio’s face.”

–Ricky Martin is adorably awkward and nervous when talking about his marriage proposal.

-Guess I can just go ahead and delete all those episodes of No Tomorrow and Frequency from my DVR. CW (who doesn’t cancel anything!) has basically cancelled them. Also, they’re holding iZombie until spring. *pout*

–Madonna is doing carpool karaoke!!

–Mandy Moore says that when she met Justin Timberlake, he told her “You have big feet for a girl!” Charming.

–Taylor Swift topped Forbes highest-earning celeb under 30 list with $170 million, while the Kardashian/Jenners have six spots with $122 million.

-Everyone’s already calling the Best Supporting Actress Oscar race for Viola Davis. It still bugs me that she’s able to submit for supporting…

–Miles Teller tries to convince us that he’s grown up. Uh huh.

-Did you guys catch David Blaine’s special last night? The Margot Robbie trick was the weirdest, but my fave reaction was David Beckham‘s, when he was telling an off-screen Victoria about the frog trick. (Love that he calls her “Tor.”)
