Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani Wed

-It’s finally happened: Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani got married on Saturday in a small ceremony at his ranch.

-The biggest news to hit before the weekend was Zendaya and Tom Holland photographed kissing in a car. Part of me thinks the is a PR move (the new Spider-Man trailer is expected to drop any day now). A bigger part of me is too squealy over these photos to care.

–Ronan Farrow and Jia Tolentino released their meticulously reported article on Britney Sprears’ conservatorship this weekend. Not a lot of huge shockers (beyond the fact that she called 911 the night before her testimony last month), but it’s a very good view into how some of those around her who initially acted with good intentions are horrified by how much it’s spiraled out of control.

-Also, Britney Spears is accusing the paparazzi of Photoshopping her to look heavier than she actually is for years.

–Pete Davidson and Bridgerton’s Phoebe Dynevor made their public debut as a couple at Wimbledon.

–Kate Middleton is at home quarantining after being exposed to someone with COVID-19.

–Bennifer took her kids to Universal Studios on Friday.

–Quentin Tarantino is now the proud new owner of another historic movie theatre in Los Angeles.

-HBO cancelled Lovecraft Country — but conveniently waited until after Emmy nomination voting was over.

-How did I not know that Zac Efron once dropped at condom on the red carpet at the Lorax premiere?

-I had no idea that Rainbow Rowell had a new book out this week until I got an upcoming delivery notice from my bookstore. I love this series so much!

-It was blind item reveal day yesterday on Crazy Days and Nights.

-Cannes is starting — and those attending have to spit a lot into small tubes.

-Blade star Stephen Dorff blasted the Marvel films and said he was “embarrassed” for Scarlett Johansson. “It looks like garbage to me. It looks like a bad video game. I’m embarrassed for those people. I’m embarrassed for Scarlett! I’m sure she got paid five, seven million bucks, but I’m embarrassed for her.” Oh yeah, she’s clearly the embarrassing one here…

-Meanwhile, here’s the latest Black Widow teaser.

Precious Lee and Hailey Bieber Cover Harper’s Bazaar

-The May Beauty issue of Harper’s Bazaar features Precious Lee (photographed by Renell Medrano) and Hailey Bieber (photographed by Amy Troost).

-In case you missed the Oscars last night (and judging by the ratings, many of you did), the biggest clips to watch are Daniel Kaluuya’s mom and sister reacting to the part of his speech where he said “Life’s incredible! My mom met my dad. They had sex. It’s amazing!”, Glenn Close knowing the moves to “Da Butt”, and Yuh-Jung Yoon starting her acceptance speech by addressing her presenter (and Minari producer) Brad Pitt with “Mr. Brad Pitt, finally. Nice to meet you. Where were you when we were filming in person?”

-The weirdest thing about the ceremony (besides it starting strong and then limping to the finish), was that they didn’t announce the Best Picture winner last like usual. Instead, that honour went to Best Actor — who turned out to be Anthony Hopkins, who didn’t show up. The theory is the producers assumed Chadwick Boseman would win posthumously and the show would end on an emotional high, but instead it came to an abrupt and anticlimactic finish that seemed to undercut Nomadland’s historic Best Picture win.

–Hopkins released a belated acceptance speech that tribute to Boseman. Apparently, Olivia Colman was meant to accept Hopkins’ award for Best Actor if he won — and everyone is blaming Joaquin Phoenix for instead saying “we accept the award on his behalf” and shutting it down.

–Another weird decision was to barely show any clips of the nominated films and performances. It felt like the wrong move, especially since most of these films have been barely seen by the general public. I’m sure if they had shown a clip when Sound of Metal won for Best Sound, for example, it would have intrigued people enough to seek it out.

-Fashion-wise, my pick for best dressed was Zendaya, with Regina King coming in a close second. 9-year-old Minari actor Alan Kim also got points for channeling David Rose.

–Aaron Sorkin attended the Oscars with 80s model Paulina Porizkova, sparking dating rumours.

-The Daily Mail has the first photos of Pete Davidson with Bridgerton star Phoebe Dynevor. Looks like they’re bonding over groceries and hideous style.

-Over 30 former employees at Scott Rudin‘s production company spoke to Vulture and described a workplace of relentless abuse, intimidation, and bullying.

-SNL announced that Elon Musk would be hosting on May 8, and the reaction was immediately negative. Even cast members Bowen Yang and Andrew Dismukes appeared to throw shade at the announcement.

-The finale for The Falcon and the Winter Solider was not great, huh?

-Ellen DeGeneres is mocking the NFT trend by trying to sell a selfie of her holding original artwork of a cat, which she’s calling “Woman With Stick Cat,” but you just know it’ll fetch buckets of money. At least she’s donating it to Chef José Andrés’ World Central Kitchen.

-Here’s the first trailer for Hulu’s Nine Perfect Strangers, adapted from the book by Big Little Lies author Liane Moriarty. It stars Nicole Kidman, Melissa McCarthy, Bobby Cannavale, Manny Jacinto, Regina Hall and Michael Shannon.

Is Pete Davidson Dating Bridgerton’s Phoebe Dynevor?

–Pete Davidson strikes again! According to DeuxMoi and the Daily Mail, he’s reportedly cozying up to Bridgerton lead actress Phoebe Dynevor.

-Meanwhile, a woman who claimed she was married to Davidson was arrested and charged with multiple crimes, including stalking and trespassing.

–Angelina Jolie and her kids are reportedly ready to testify and offer “proof and authority in support” of her spousal abuse allegations against Brad Pitt — but weirdly the major outlets aren’t touching it.

-A day after she was featured in a segment about anti-Asian violence on John Oliver‘s show, Meghan McCain did not appear on The View. She did, however, tweet an apology “for any past comments that aided that agenda.”

-In the New York Times, Whoopi Goldberg was asked about her thoughts on marriage, and said: “I don’t want somebody in my house.” Makes perfect sense.

-The Talk team was informed Friday night the hiatus will extend throughout this week as the investigation into Sharon Osbourne continues.

–Kylie Jenner, who boasts about being a billionaire despite what Forbes says, asked fans to help pay for her former makeup artist’s $60k life-saving surgery and it did NOT go well. She has since posted about it to “clear up the false narrative,” saying that she donated $5k even though he hasn’t worked for her in a few years. Yeah, that doesn’t make it sound better.

-Silicon Valley’s Thomas Middleditch is being accused of sexual misconduct, stemming from a Los Angeles Times report about the co-founders of a now-closed goth club in Hollywood.

-The CW series Batwoman recast Ruby Rose’s role in last night’s episode.

-I can’t imagine ever bringing myself to watch Zack Synder’s Justice League, but everyone seems to have lots of feelings about the hot dog scene.

–Orlando Bloom is getting dragged for his day-in-the-life interview.

-I really liked this feature on character actors — and longtime couple — Bill Camp and Elizabeth Marvel (who you would definitely recognize if you saw their faces) about the career renaissance for utility players in Hollywood. “We’re really fucking lucky. We got older as streaming platforms hit, and what they churn out is content. They need people to carry the water, and we are water carriers. No muss, no fuss.”

-The Ellen DeGeneres Show has lost 1 million viewers since rumours surfaced about its toxic workplace.

-Here’s the first trailer for Disney+’s Mighty Ducks sequel series, starring Emilio Estevez and Lauren Graham.
