kim-kanye-harpers-bazaar

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian’s new Harper’s Bazaar interview has to be seen to be believed. Read it, savour it, tattoo quotes from it on your limbs. (But not his comment about Kim’s nude selfies: “to not show it would be like Adele not singing.” That’s mine.)

-Super private Mila Kunis is revealing details about her super private marriage, including that she bought their wedding bands for $90 on Etsy.

-Supergirl’s first photo of Tyler Hoechlin as Superman is so…weird. CW, the whole point of hiring the actors you do is so you don’t have to Photoshop them within an inch of their life.

Blake Shelton is denying reports that he endorsed Donald Trump in his Billboard interview. Sure except, you know, we can all read.

Adam Pally‘s comments in this article on Netflix refusing to release ratings is so on point. It’s harder for creators to negotiate when there’s no measures of success. There’s also persistent rumours that Netflix pays writers sub-union wages.

-This profile of Howard Stern is actually a pretty fascinating reconsideration of his entire career.

Cara Delevingne might be engaged to St Vincent!

-I agree with this review that it’s time for Mr. Robot to cut down on the super-sized episodes, mostly because Showcase in Canada keeps cutting off my recordings.

-Meanwhile, Jimmy Kimmel hacked into Mr Robot — mostly to ask Elliot to help him sync his contacts.

-This Instagram vid is going to make you fall in love with Gwen Stefani a little bit.

-When I first heard about the Beaches remake for Lifetime I was all aw hells no, but then I found out that Idina Menzel is taking over the Bette Midler role. Carry on, then.

Justin Bieber’s strange relationship with exotic animals continues.

-As much as I love the Gilmore Girls, this article on how to make the show great raises a lot of valid points.

Bradley Cooper‘s DNC appearance irked some conservatives because of his portrayal of Navy SEAL in American Sniper. It’s almost like actors and their characters are not the same person!

Jared Leto‘s battle with TMZ about that Taylor Swift video continues.

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard have finally agreed to a court date after accusing each other of stalling.

-Oof. The new Bourne movie isn’t exactly getting glowing reviews. How can Bourne be a bore?

Ansel Elgort continues to release EDM music under a pseudonym. I can’t, guys. Not even for mocking purposes. My soul isn’t strong enough.

-No more drama: Mary J. Blige filed for divorce from husband Kendu Isaacs after 12 years of marriage.

-Sweet: Black Mirror is dropping on Netflix on Oct 21. Even sweeter: Rashida Jones and Mike Schur wrote one of the episodes.

Ben Affleck and Anna Kendrick get in over their heads in the new trailer for The Accountant. Anyone else not really buying Affleck as a socially awkward math geek.

[Note: I’m out of town for a few days so no new updates until Aug 3]

-A man slapped Justin Timberlake in the face at a celebrity golf tourney. We’ve all been there, sir.

-This interview with the drunken cast of The Vampire Diaries is a mess. I love it.

-This is a fascinating look inside the troubled production of Baz Luhrmann‘s The Get Down, Netflix’s most expensive series to date ($120 million!!!).  Lexi Alexander tweeted about this story with the frog sipping tea, so now my curiosity is peaked!

Mila Kunis tried to explain the plot of Jupiter Ascending and failed miserably.

-Guys, what happened to UnREAL? Like, really. Last night’s episode was even messier than last week’s. On the plus side, I’m happy for the Extra Hot Great podcast because they now have another “she’s a reporter willing to sleep around to get the scoop!” trope to skewer.

-This is really, really interesting stuff: a writer/producer of The 100 (and a bunch of other shows) has released a bunch of his TV pitches, scripts and outlines for download to help young writers see how they are done.

Demi Lovato’s DNC performance was hella awkward, according to these GIFs.

-Speaking of the DNC, it resulted in an emergency edition of Shade Court on Jezebel!

-Replacing family photos at your mom’s house with ones of Steve Buscemi might be the best idea ever.

-I really liked this article on how Taylor Swift needs protection from online trolls — but so do the rest of us.

-Today’s TIFF announcement has me stoked for this year’s fest, especially Catfight, La La Land, Manchester By the Sea, and Snowden. I’m really surprised Girl on a Train and Ang Lee’s Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk weren’t included, though.

-Meanwhile, The Girl On The Train got a steamy new trailer.

Anna Gunn goes ballistic on a mansplainer in a new clip from Equity Film.

-Despite all the trailers that dropped this week because of SDCC, the Trainspotting one is the only one that made me squeal.

-The Office Christmas Party trailer stars Jennifer Aniston, Jason Bateman and oh, a little someone by the name of KATE MCKINNON!

Elle Responds to FKA Twigs Cover Backlash

fka-twigs-elle-magazine-cover

-Frankly, when I first saw this cover I was trying to figure out why they put FKA Twigs in that messy outfit instead of looking at the headlines surrounding her, but yeah, that Becky with the Good Hair joke is not great. Elle even published an article on their site from Melissa Harris-Perry about why it alarmed her.

-In an Instagram post, Lady Gaga says she and Taylor Kinney are soulmates who are just taking a break, and asked her fans to “please root us on.”

Idris Elba dancing and singing in funny voices is making my insides goopy.

-I was interviewed by the Toronto Star and I praised Kim Kardashian. In print. Publicly. I don’t even know who I am anymore…

Mila Kunis says she and Ashton Kutcher tried to just be f*** buddies but, like their crappy rom-coms suggest, that never works. “If we just paid attention to these movies [No Strings Attached and Friends with Benefits], we should know that s—t like this does not work out in real life.”

-Did the Beyhive figure out some sort of advanced compression algorithm for superlong GIFs? Is there anything that fandom can’t do?!

-I just spent way too much time in this comment thread, reading about people’s celebrity encounters. The one about Tom Cruise serving kids cupcakes is great, as is the one with Topher Grace asking a girl if they once banged.

Amandla Stenberg just joined the adaptation of Everything Everything — a book I loved. I really like this casting news!

-Speaking of great casting news, Hamilton’s Daveed Diggs just landed a role on Blackish.

Miranda Kerr is engaged to Snapchat founder Evan Spiegel. Which she announced using Snapchat’s new bitmoji. Synergy, y’all!

-Twitter finally banned that conservative blogger who led the online abuse of Leslie Jones.

-Screw this article about how what happened to Jones is a symptom of fan entitlement. It was racism and sexism, full stop.

-This is unexpected. D&D is making a comeback (with celebrities at least). Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson, Drew Barrymore, Stephen Colbert, Mike Myers, Jon Favreau, and Aubrey Plaza all say they play it.

-Unreal’s producers are defending this week’s twist. I’m not buying it. This season is definitely wobbly — possibly because of behind-the-scenes drama.

-This is an interesting article from Vulture on how women’s pictures found a new home on TV, but it feels like they’re turning a blind eye to soaps.

Kirsten Dunst is going to direct an adaptation of The Bell Jar, starring Dakota Fanning? Yes, please!

-Interesting: The Cut takes us inside Raya, the secret dating app for famous people.

-The only thing Democrats and Republicans agree on? The CW is a damn fine network.

Ben Foster and Chris Pine are bank robbers in the Hell or High Water trailer.
