Miley Cyrus’s Damage Control Fail

–Rihanna‘s $150 “visual autobiography” has been released. Yay?

-Speaking of celebs with unexpected books, Jenna Dewan talks about the end of her marriage to Channing Tatum in hers: “First and foremost I had to accept the realization this isn’t working and had moved into hurting.”

-The noose keeps tightening around Prince Andrew’s neck but he doesn’t seem to care. How privileged to you have to feel to just be able to shrug this stuff off like your teflon?

–Lizzo brought Macaulay Culkin on stage during her L.A. concert last night and it was quite adorable.

–Scarlett Johansson says isn’t going to let Michael Che anywhere near Colin Jost’s bachelor party, which seems like good planning.

–Keira Knightley revealed that she gave birth to a baby girl six weeks ago that she named Delilah.

–Ken Loach is the latest old school filmmaker to crap on Marvel movies. (At least his comments seem to be more about the current movie marketplace and what opportunities filmmakers are getting shut out of as blockbusters become the status quo, which is more understandable than the crotchety “it’s not good” refrain.)

-It’s hilarious that during the CW crossover filming, someone always seems to fall asleep during a scene. Previously it was Melissa Benoist, this year it’s Stephen Amell.

-Speaking of the CW, I’m pleasantly surprised that Batwoman is doing well in the ratings. I don’t think it’s for me, but good on female-fronted superhero shows.

-Killing Eve’s Jodie Comer covers Variety’s Emmy issue, and still can’t seem to believe she won.

–Woody Harrelson shows Billie Eilish around in the new SNL promo.

-This interview with Renee Zellweger is very good, mostly because she’s so optimistic about life and love. “People are cynical and they’ll say this kind of thing doesn’t work and I totally disagree. Look at Kyra Sedgwick and Kevin Bacon, for cryin’ out loud!”

-In her ongoing trademark battle with a wedding planner, Beyoncé called Blue Ivy a “cultural icon.” I mean, she’s not wrong.

–Jonah Hill reportedly wants double what Robert Pattinson is getting for the Batman movie, and also wants to choose whether he plays the Riddler or Penguin. That’s…not how this works.

-This Fiona Apple interview happened when she reached out because the writer (via a Hotmail account!) because the writer was one of the few who noticed that Variety had dubbed an interview with Hustlers director Lorene Scafaria. What follows is a fun, freewheeling conversation about the state of the music industry (“The whole music scene, which — not bullshit anymore. It’s the bull who ate that shit and then shit it out again, and then ate that shit and then shit it out again, and then ate that shit and then shit it out again, and then ate that shit and then shit it out again, and now it’s that bullshit”), what her life looks like these days (“I live here in my house with my friend Zelda and her dog, and we just hang out. We play with dogs and work on our stuff and go out for walks. I have a very simple life”), and a story about meeting JLo in 1996 before she was famous (“JLo’s album hadn’t come out yet, and nobody had started talking about her ass yet — and I swear I saw her and ran to get my sister JUST to show her how beautiful that ass was — and the moment I pointed her out to my sister, JLo turned to speak to someone and her butt was just above table-level, and her butt knocked over someone’s glass of champagne and she didn’t even notice. It was glorious.”).

–Laura Dern, Sam Neill and Jeff Goldblum (aka my BFF) are all reprising their roles for Jurassic Park 3.

–Baby Archie is a cutie!

–Harrison Ford is warning us to address the climate crisis before it’s too late. “Stop, for God’s sake, the denigration of science. Stop giving power to people who don’t believe in science, or worse than that, pretend they don’t believe in science for their own self-interest.”

-I have not yet seen Brad Pitt‘s Ad Astra but man, so many people I follow on Twitter HATED it.

Miley Cyrus Liam Hemsworth Vanity Fair

-In her new Vanity Fair cover story, Miley Cyrus talks about her marriage to Liam Hemsworth (“I think the reason we got married isn’t old-fashioned — I actually think it’s kind of New Age. We’re redefining, to be f**king frank, what it looks like for someone that’s a queer person like myself to be in a hetero relationship”), reveals that she felt “anger, relief, sadness” when they lost their mansion to the Malibu wildfires last year, and says her new music will have more of a “hip-hop-leaning” vibe.

-It’s happening! R. Kelly has been charged in Chicago’s Cook County with 10 counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse involving four people, at least three of them minors.

–Jussie Smollett is being removed from the final episodes of Empire left to shoot after his arrest. Empire’s executive producers released a statement saying they “care about him deeply” but will keep him out of the show while the legal process plays out.  Meanwhile, police said that Smollett was unhappy with his salary, and that was why he did it but according to sources close to the show, Smollett never expressed dissatisfaction with his $100,000 per episode salary.

-Today’s anonymous Oscar ballot piece has a tangent about banging Buzz Aldrin so there’s that.

-I very much enjoyed this oral history of Hugh Jackman’s opening number at 2009’s Oscars. I forgot how wonderful it was, and I had no idea that Dan Harmon and Ben Schwartz were behind it.

–Ariana Grande made nice with Piers Morgan and people are not into it.

-I find it so odd that Netflix plays the “we might cancel this” every year with One Day At A Time. I don’t watch it, but it regularly lands on critics’ best of the year lists and people love it. Why is it the only show they treat like this publicly?

Fleabag’s new season is already airing in the UK and critics are calling the first episode an actual masterpiece. I need it in my eyeballs!

-I really feel like I need to start watching The Magicians after the reaction from last night’s episode, which apparently turned a slash couple into canon? I feel like it’s one of those shows no one reviews (maybe because it’s genre and no one take that very seriously?), but every critic I follow tweets about how much they love it. This pop culture-referencing scene has already sold me on it.

-Speaking of shows I don’t watch but everyone I follow seems to love, the future of Wynonna Earp is in jeopardy as production seeks funding for season 4.
