Silicon Valley Moves On From TJ Miller

silicon-valley-thr

-I’ve never been able to get into Silicon Valley because its lack of female characters (and the way they treat the few they have) put me off, but it’s interesting that THR’s new cover story is so openly critical of ex-cast member TJ Miller. “There had been stretches when, multiple show sources say, he looked to have things under control, and others when he’d show up seemingly under the influence, if he showed up at all…Table reads would start late as the cast and crew waited on the untamable actor, and when he did arrive he typically hadn’t cracked open the script. Schedules would regularly have to be rejiggered, and sources from the set recount tales of Miller falling asleep between takes.”

Frances McDormand’s Oscar speech is already working. Your internet boyfriend Michael B. Jordan  says he will incorporate an inclusion rider into all the projects his company produces.

Matthew Morrison hosted a Glee cast reunion and almost everyone show up (with one or two notable exceptions).

-The guy who allegedly groped Terry Crews won’t face charges. Is it just me, or is the Me Too movement kind of forgetting to support Crews as much as others?

-The Wrinkle In Time reviews are in, and they are decidedly mixed. From all the reviews I read, I think this tweet sums up the critical response: there’s something visceral about it that works on you or doesn’t.

-Whoa. Jessica Capshaw and Sarah Drew are being written out of Grey’s Anatomy. I don’t really watch that show much anymore, but I caught a recent episode and it seemed like Arizona had zero story and they’d really messed up April, so I guess that makes sense.

-The worrisome stories continue: Dean McDermott reportedly called 911 and asked them to check on Tori Spelling‘s well-being.

Gwyneth Paltrow scored Oprah as her first podcast guest.

-Jennifer Lawrence is feuding with a reality TV star, which sounds about right.

-Speaking of JLaw, I liked this article on her backlash.

Reese Witherspoon flirted with Adam Rippon hard on Colbert. “You smell really good. You’re more handsome in person than even on the ice.” And then he unbuttoned his shirt for her.

-Don’t try to ask Christina Hendricks about the Me Too movement. Her publicist won’t let her answer.

-Nick Offerman stars in the The House of Tomorrow trailer.

 

 

Nicki Minaj Doesn’t Want To Talk About Her Ass – Or Anything Else

Nicki Minaj GQ

-If you want to maintain a good opinion of Nicki Minaj, you might want to skip her new GQ profile. She falls asleep on the interviewer (four times!), dismisses questions about what “Anaconda” is trying to say about body image (“I knew that I wanted a gym theme. And that’s that.” ), and generally comes off as bored and inarticulate.

-The stars from Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants reunited again this weekend to support America Ferrera’s Broadway performance. The fact that those four still hang out is more incredible to me than a pair of magical jeans that fit them all.

Jada Pinkett Smith (the best thing about Gotham) landed her role because she arrived at her audition with a man on a leash.

-This video of Jamie Oliver and Taylor Swift having a “bake off” for charity is surprisingly adorable.

-I actually kind of think Taylor Swift’s advice to Selena Gomez about not being the smartest person in the room is a bit mean girl-y. Just me?

-Oh dear. Buffy star (and newlywed) Nicholas Brendon was arrested this weekend on suspicion of damaging property and resisting arrest in Idaho, where he was attending the Tree City Comic Con. He’s blaming a mix of prescription meds and alcohol. I hope his past problems haven’t resurfaced.

-Secret emails reveal that Kim Kardashian now demands $1 million per endorsement.

-James Franco looks pretty happy for someone who just tackled a paparazzo.

Seth Rogen fulfilled his lifelong dream (and mine) to sing “Poison” onstage with Bell Biv DeVoe.

-Glee star Matthew Morrison married model Renee Puente this weekend. This People story about it feels like a copy and paste from a press release. Did we really need to know who the event planner, photographer and videographer were?

-In other weekend wedding news, Candice Accola got hitched and most of her Vampire Diaries costars showed up to help her celebrate.

Tom Hanks has written a short story for the New Yorker because there’s absolutely nothing that man isn’t good at.

Jennifer Garner is taking credit for Ben Affleck going full-frontal in Gone Girl. But what if you blinked and missed it? What then? Don’t fail me now, Tumblr!!

Ansel Elgort went to Amsterdam and visited the bench from The Fault in our Stars, which is kind of sweet. I guess I’ll forgive him for making dumb comments about how his social media outreach is stronger than any publication’s.

-As you gaze upon the hotness of Lenny Kravitz‘s photo spread in Uptown Magazine, remind yourself that he’s now 50.

-I finally caught up on the Serial podcast and now I’m obsessed. Finding this subReddit where people have made insanely detailed timelines and evidence lists isn’t helping.

-It looks like Mulaney‘s Fox sitcom might be the first casualty of the new TV season. I love his standup (and he wrote the Stefon bits for SNL), but his show is really, really bad.

Jessie Ware says Momofuku’s pork buns have shaped her life. I feel her.

Ryan Reynolds was honoured at Canada’s Walk of Fame, but Blake Lively didn’t accompany him. Perhaps if she had, she would have talked him out of that terrible tux.

Blake, meanwhile, was spotted shopping in New York in an outfit that doesn’t make sense for any temperature.

-Here’s the trailer for The Comeback. I’m going to have to catch up on this show, aren’t I?

-Between Summer Roberts having Anakin Skywalker’s baby and Seth Cohen marrying Blair Waldorf, it feels like this is the year The OC kids became actual adults. Your move, Mischa Barton.

-We all got really excited this morning by rumours that Jessica Chastain had been offered the lead role in True Detective Season 2, but then her camp denied it. Sad face.

-Eww eww eww! Lea Michele revealed that she and Matthew Morrison dated before they landed their roles in Glee.

Angelina Jolie says rich and famous moms “shouldn’t complain” and that they “have much more support than most”. Shots fired, GOOP!

Ciara and fiance Future welcomed their first child together on Monday and called him Future, which is in no way confusing or weird.

James McAvoy says X-Men costar Jennifer Lawrence is a “demon” who “can drink,” just in case you weren’t already convinced of her awesomeness.

-Tragic news: Brody Jenner will not be attending step-sister Kim Kardashian‘s wedding because his girlfriend wasn’t invited. Somehow, humanity will have to find the will to go on.

-Meanwhile, Lana del Rey will reportedly sing “Young and Beautiful” at Kimye‘s wedding.

-Also, Kim reportedly wants “Marie Antoinette-like” wedding dresses. Um, who’s going to break the news to her about how that ended up?

Selena Gomez says she’s “taking her power back” by posting this bikini pic. Okayyyyy…..

-This is what happens when Charlie Day speaks at your commencement.

-Wow, this might be the happiest and healthiest Renee Zellweger has looked in a while.

-The stars of Pretty Little Liars did a really porn-y GQ spread that made me immediately close my browser, clear my cache and disinfect my computer monitor.

Jason Biggs really, really has to stop trying to be funny on Twitter. It never works.

-The Hollywood Reporter’s “drama queens” cover is so very, very white. I thought maybe it was because they were only featuring actresses who had a shot at a Lead Actress in a Drama series Emmy, but then what the hell is Jessica Pare doing there?! And where’s Kerry Washington? All the sighs.

-This charity video offers our first peek at Star Wars Episode VII’s set.

-We learned today that the upcoming sequel to Man Of Steel will be called Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice, which has led to a whole lot of courtroom jokes.

-Did Ryan Reynolds choose to skip the afterparty for his poorly received Cannes movie and sulk instead?

-Former DWTS contestant Andy Dick was escorted from the ballroom during last night’s finale.

Charlize Theron and Josh Hartnett played an epic game of charades with Jimmy Fallon last night.

Adam Scott and his wife discuss their recreations of classic TV theme songs — including their failed plan to remake the original 90210’s.

-I’m glad to see HBO’s The Normal Heart is getting great reviews. Apparently, Matt Bomer steals the show.

-Speaking of HBO, Bill Hader is developing a new show for them.

-It’s weird to watch Colin Firth be all James Bond-y, but he kicks ass in the first trailer for Matthew Vaughn’s Kingsmen: The Secret Service.
