Harry Styles Is Interviewed by Paul McCartney

harry-styles-another-man

-On the plus side, they reportedly had an “ironclad prenup” so there won’t be any fighting over their $400 million fortune.

–Jared Leto lost that lawsuit against TMZ over that Taylor Swift video but plans to appeal, saying “this isn’t just a legal issue, it’s a moral one.” Sure thing, buddy.

–Lupita Nyong’o rapped to celebrate hitting 3 million Instagram followers. Between this and her recent gushing over Beyonce, I think I love her.

-The Will & Grace cast had a reunion this weekend that was intensely documented for social media. They’re clearly shooting something — is it a Clinton ad?

-Meanwhile, Kim Kardashian wants you to know that she is most definitely voting for Clinton.

-It’s kind of a big deal that actors can now get their ages removed from IMDb.

–Priyanka Chopra says Tom Hiddleston made her twirl on the Emmys stage. That bastard!

-Hmmm…it’s one thing for Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner to be hanging out together at family events, but what’s with the kid-free dinner dates? And breakfast dates.

-I don’t know why, but I love it when famous people crash wedding photos. Tom Hanks just did it in Central Park.

-There’s a new Tegan and Sara music video to kick off your week. Is that Reggie Watts?

-Speaking of Reggie, the cast of You’re The Worst is on the latest Comedy Bang Bang podcast.

-Congrats to Josh Brolin, who got married this weekend.

-I don’t watch Last Man On Earth, but I would have had I known there was a Mad Men reunion on the last ep.

-Everyone’s talking about how well The Magnificent Seven did this weekend, but is $35M a strong opening for a $90M action film starring Denzel Washington and Chris Pratt?  Tracking had predicted a $40M bow.

justin-timberlake-vanity-fair-italia

-I don’t get what’s happening with Justin Timberlake‘s face on the Vanity Fair Italia cover. Is it squished or something? Of course, he ended up rehashing the Britney Spears drama in the interview. He just can’t help himself, can he?

-In better cover images, I’m loving Kristen Stewart’s look on T.

-Us Weekly says Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth have canceled their Bora Bora honeymoon. Wait, did we even know they set a date?!

–Jared Leto acted like a crazy person on the set of Suicide Squad, reportedly whined about feeling “tricked” into being part of that film, criticized the movie without actually having seen it,  and yet has STILL managed to land a role in Blade Runner 2. On the plus side, Harrison Ford will squash him like a bug if he tries any of his method BS.

-I’m sure the words that accompany this Mike Colter interview are great. I just can’t seem to tear my eyes away from the photos long enough to read them.

-Shocking report: Amy Schumer‘s new book is under assault from a brigade of trolls.

-Meanwhile, Schumer freaked everyone out earlier today by tweeting “we aren’t making the show anymore” before clarifying that’s it’s not canceled, she’s just too busy touring right now to figure out when the next season will start filming.

-Also, here’s a great read about how disappointing the Schumer/Kurt Metzger situation has been and what it says about feminism and compromise.

-Frankly, I’m surprised it took this long for the dubious pregnancy rumours to surround Amal Clooney.

-The US Justice Department says it will end its use of private prisons. Orange Is The New Black, FTW! Who says TV can’t change the world?

-Comedy Bang Bang is ending its TV show. Frankly, it was so wonderfully weird I’m surprised it made it five whole seasons.

-I’m not sure how I feel about Jason Katims‘ insistence on a Parenthood revival. Great show but that finale was perfect; why mess with it?

-The screenwriter of 2016’s Ben-Hur says the movie doesn’t have gay subtext because he was only allow to adapt the book, not the 1959 movie. Can the original movie trademark subtext, though?

–Tom Arnold penned a passionate essay arguing for gun control after losing his nephew to suicide.

Kendall Jenner Nabs Sept Issue of Vogue

-I had a lot of guesses about who was going to land the cover of September Vogue. Kendall effing Jenner was not at the top of my list.

-Also serving up cover: Gina Rodriguez on Health.

-In a new interview, Amy Schumer talks about Twitter hate and maintaining her confidence. “Just spend shorter amounts of time thinking you’re the ugliest person in the world.”

–Hugh Jackman posted a photo of him looking really old, and news outlets didn’t get that he was wearing makeup for a movie.

-What the hell? Criminal Minds’ star Thomas Gibson was suspended after kicking a writer-producer. This is the second time he’s had a physical altercation with a producer on this set. Man, the Dharma & Greg folks have not aged well.

-More stories about how Vin Diesel isn’t exactly a gem continue to surface.

-This article about what it means to be a difficult actor versus a difficult actress is worth your time.

-Speaking of difficult actors, here’s an interesting read on how Jared Leto has ruined method acting. It’s “become more about ego and marketing than good performances.” (On the plus side, maybe actors will stop talking about their “craft” and “process” in interviews.)

–Leslie. Jones. Has. Landed. In. Rio.

-The producers of the all-female Oceans Eleven reboot are reportedly worried about a Ghostbusters-type backlash. Funny how this has been the summer of sequel flops and no one’s hand-wringing about those.

-The staff of a Toronto hospital staff sang ‘Courage’ in a tribute to Gord Downie. No, YOU’RE crying!

-Days after being fired from SNL, Taran Killam and Jay Pharoah have both landed new leading man gigs.

-This is a long but great read on TV’s current drama slump. “An increasing number of not-great dramas with a prestige-y sheen are piling onto a field that was already standing-room only.”

-The fact that Emmy season means Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys are now doing a bunch of joint interviews/photo shoots makes me giddy.

-The TCAs saved my favourite network for last. Lots of goodies from The CW dropped today, including that a character on one of the superhero shows will come out, Dolph Lundgren will star as Arrow’s villain during their last year of flashbacks, and The Flash and Supergirl are planning a musical crossover that may include Arrow and Legends cast members. Amell has already bowed out, but if we can get a song between Victor Garber, Jesse L Martin, John Barrowman and the Glee alums, I’ll be happy. Remember when Grant Gustin did “Smooth Criminal” and made us all forget that we were supposed to hate his character?

–Rachel Weisz is suffering an identity crisis in the Complete Unknown trailer.
