-Promoting tick, tick…BOOM!, Vanessa Hudgens appears in Glamour UK’s digital issue and talks about learning of her dad’s death shortly before doing Grease Live. “There was never a moment where I thought that I wouldn’t do it because my dad would want me to do it. He gave so much time and energy into me achieving my dreams and for me to have a career where I can do what I love. So I felt like I needed to do it, because that’s what he would’ve wanted [me] to do.”

Jack Harlow covers Variety’s Hitmaker issue and talks about trying to keep the music from getting lost in all the trappings of fame. “Once you become actually famous, it’s only half about the music. They’re just showing up to see you in the flesh, put you on their Snap, throw some panties at you, whether they know a single lyric or not.”

Alec Baldwin‘s interview airs tonight, and he’s going on record to say that his finger was never on the trigger. A lawyer for the assistant director who allegedly handed him the gun is backing him up.

Seth Rogen told a hilarious story about how and he and his wife got “stoned as hell” before going to Adele’s concert special, not realizing it would be televised. “I got an invitation – “Do you want to go to a small Adele concert?” is what I remember absorbing…And then me and my wife are like ‘Ok, maybe we can just slink into the background. We’re not equipped mentally to deal with doing this right now’…We’re in front row centre. I don’t know Adele. And if Adele, you’re watching this: Why did you do that? The whole time I’m watching this like, ‘There’s so many more famous people than me here who should be sitting where I’m sitting…Like, I was in front of Drake!'”

-Did Danny DeVito basically write Batman fanfiction? I’m into it.

Jamie Spears Finally Relents

-Finally some good news on the Britney Spears front. TMZ is reporting that Jamie Spears is not waiting for the next hearing at the end of September and instead has filed court docs to step down as his daughter’s conservator. He’s a whiny little jerkface about it, but still! In the filing, he slams Lynne Spears and adds, “There are, in fact, no actual grounds for suspending or removing Mr. Spears as the Conservator of the Estate … and it is highly debatable whether a change in conservator at this time would be in Ms. Spears’ best interests.”

-Meanwhile, police are monitoring death threats being made to the judge who’s overseeing Spears’ conservatorship case.

Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis broke down and bathed their children. Peer pressure works!

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck hit up celebrity hotspot Craig’s for dinner with her daughter after returning home from their European yacht trip. Every time I go to a fancy restaurants and see kids there I think “god, they must be so bored.” Though I guess getting papped would add some excitement/terror to the evening.

-This is in interesting look at how celebrities alerting the paparazzi to their whereabouts has changed during the pandemic, when the lack of red carpets is making some stars desperate for coverage.

-At this point, it takes a lot for shoe designers to really make a shoe stand out based on sheer ridiculousness, but Rebecca Hall’s just did it. “Toe condoms” sound about right.

Kristin Chenoweth did this 18-page musical number in one take on Schmigadoon!, a show that has really grown on me, even though I know nothing about the era of musical theatre it’s spoofing.

-Scotland Yard said they will cooperate with American authorities regarding Prince Andrew — while Charles is worried how the optics are going to overshadow the Queen‘s Platinum Jubilee. The priorities of this family remain eyebrow raising….
