NY Mag’s Powerful Cosby Cover Makes Waves

bill-cosby-ny-mag-cover

-Of the 46 women who have come forward to accuse Bill Cosby, New York Magazine spoke to 35 of them about the culture that wouldn’t listen. The story is amazing; unfortunately the site was the target of a hack and the story was unavailable for hours today. It’s back up now though and well worth your time.

–Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton are cute Twittering, so I guess that means there’s no drama then, right?

–The Flash gag reel is super long but very funny. I expect the interwebs to be filled with Grant Gustin dancing gifs in 3..2..1..

-I keep forgetting that Keri Russell is dating her TV husband and then I see a photo of them together and get all giggly again.

-I know everyone is desperate for the Taylor Swift vs Katy Perry narrative to continue, but I’m pretty sure there’s no such thing as shark shade, guys.

-This perfectly captures my complicated feelings about Trainwreck (which I loved, but wanted to love even more).

-Also, don’t ask Amy Schumer about her ties to the Illuminati.

–Shia LaBeouf is quickly going from quirky weird to terrifying weird. How messed up do you have to be to not only get into that situation, but then allow yourself to be filmed in it?

–Jennifer Lopez turned 46 and totally rocked this outfit because the universe is unfair.

-In her Complex cover story, Khloe Kardashian explains why it’s totally cool that her 17-year-old sister is dating (and maybe engaged to) 25-year-old Tyga. “Kylie is not a normal 17-year-old,” seeming to not understand that’s one of the reasons everyone’s freaked by it.

-Also, Khloe took to Twitter to deny rumours that her sisters’ high school graduation party featured cocaine.

–Joshua Jackson is getting a new love interest in The Affair which means The Affair is getting new Joshua Jackson love scenes. Ergo, I guess I’m not quitting The Affair.

–Bobby Brown issued a statement on Bobby Kristina’s death: “Our loss is unimaginable.” Not surprisingly, her death is being investigated.

-Ruh roh. Conan O’Brien is being sued for allegedly stealing Twitter jokes.

–Tilda Swinton may play her Doctor Strange character as a man because there is no end to her awesome.

-In other superhero movie news, Stan Lee wants everyone to chill about Michael B. Jordan playing the Human Torch in Fantastic Four.

-I could give zero f**ks about another Spider-Man movie, but good on Freaks and Geeks alum John Francis Daley for landing the writing gig.

-God, this article about the 10 best episodes of Angel makes me want to watch it all again. Stop ruining my life, quality TV!

-I love Mongrel and think they do great work bringing awesome films to Canadian theatres, but the totally deserved getting called out for this.

-As annoying as Jesse Eisenberg can be IRL, I’m still down to watch him and Kristen Stewart in American Ultra. The trailers just keep getting better.

Blake Lively Fixes Motorcycles Now

Blake-Lively-O-Magaine
Blake Lively talks about her latest projects in the April 2015 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine.

-Sentences that Blake Lively says unironically now include: “I’ll knit or cook—or work on a motorcycle, a skill my husband is teaching me” and “One of my latest projects was painting nature-inspired throw pillows.”

-I feel like rumours that Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx are secretly hooking up surface every six months or so, but this is the first time it’s coming from a source as reputable as People.

-Comedy Central is wisely cutting a controversial Paul Walker joke when they air the Justin Bieber roast.

-Meanwhile, David Arquette was kicked out of Justin Bieber’s 21st birthday party (repeatedly!), which might be the saddest thing I’ve ever heard.

-Here’s Michael Fassbender as Steve Jobs. He looks like Michael Fassbender.

-“Straight James Franco” interviewed “Gay James Franco” for a magazine. Spoiler alert: they’re both weird.

-During SWSW, Jimmy Kimmel and Matthew McConaughey made some hilarious TV commercials for a local video store in Austin.

-Vanity Fair did a St. Patrick’s Day gallery of stars posing in their magazine throughout the years while wearing green, and I went through the whole damn thing like a click bait sucker. The biggest question I was left with: Whatever happened to Jennifer Aniston’s “on-line chat site”?!?

-Two X Factor New Zealand judges were fired after they bullied a contestant (it was really weird). Lorde then swept in to save the day by sending the contestant a box of cupcakes.

–Dominic Purcell is joining his Prison Break costar Wentworth Miller for the Arrow/The Flash spinoff  (though this article makes it sound like Robbie Amell has declined to be part of it). Here’s the thing: as much as I love both of the shows this thing is originating from, they can’t just keep making casting announcements without actually giving us the premise. Like, what the hell is this show going to be about?! ‘Cause it’s starting to feel like the CW just wants to cash in on a fandom that will follow them anywhere.

-Meanwhile, Stephen Amell pitched an idea to the CW of doing a Jason Reitman-esque live reading of Arrow/Supernatural fan fiction. I want this to happen so hard.

-Speaking of CW shows, I really dug the first episode of iZombie, which is premiering tonight to glowing reviews. It’s Veronica Mars meets Buffy meets Pushing Daisies, and once they get past the case-of-the-week stuff (which they’re already planning), I think it could go from being cute to being amazing.

–Shailene Woodley did the barefoot thing again, this time at the Insurgent premiere.

–Miles Teller, Wiz Khalifa, Jim Parsons and Jimmy Fallon played Catchphrase last night, and it was filled with awkward handshakes and terrible dancing.

–Ashley Judd says she’s pressing charges against Twitter trolls for their vulgar comments. I don’t blame her. I love Twitter, but it sucks at dealing with harassment.

–Kate Bosworth gets her horror on in the new trailer for Before I Wake. The scariest thing about this movie is clearly Thomas Jane‘s hair.

Kate Winslet Talks Boobs and Bums in InStyle

Kate-Winslet-InStyle

-In her InStyle cover story, Kate Winslet talks about being happy with her body post-baby: “I’ve got boobs and a bum and a man who loves me.”

–Chris Evans and Lily Collins are reportedly dating? Doesn’t she seem too young for him? Or am I just still bummed that the rumours of him dating Sandra Bullock didn’t pan out?

-Another day, another awesomely inspiring speech from Shonda Rhimes to kick you in your pants parts.

-Human tire fire Emile Hirsch appeared in court to address assault charges after allegedly attacking a woman at Sundance.

–Kate Hudson and Chris Martin are just friends though, right? Right??!

–Kanye West just shared a bunch of naked pictures of Kim Kardashian with the world, cause why not?

–Ryan Gosling still does not get where the “Hey Girl” thing came from.

–Justin Bieber was roasted this weekend. The special doesn’t air on Comedy Central until March 30, but the internets have helpfully compiled all the nastiest burns. (The Hannibal Buress ones are especially epic.) Don’t feel too bad for the Biebs, though; he asked for it.

-Meanwhile, his Men’s Health feature also backfired. Sure, he got to show off his baby abs on the cover, but the accompanying article is super scathing.

–Elton John is urging a Dolce & Gabbana boycott after the designers’ IVF comments — and he’s getting serious celeb support.

-I know it’s only March, but I’m pretty sure this is going to win headline of the year: “Why Would Anyone Want to Date Sean Penn?”

-Buffy’s Nicholas Brendon has been arrested for the third time in five months. Get it together, Zeppo.

-I haven’t caught up on The Jinx yet but judging by how my Twitter timeline exploded last night, it’s a must. It seems the HBO doc accomplished what Serial couldn’t: an arrest. (The LAPD insists the timing of the arrest, which happened the same weekend the finale aired, was merely a coincidence.) Meanwhile, The Jinx creators cancelled a bunch of scheduled interviews today and keep ducking questions about the timeline of the confession.

–Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp A Butterfly leaked a week early, and now his label can’t decide if they should pull it.

–Ansel Elgort says he would “love to produce a record for Missy Elliott.” So, that happened.

-Just because he was caught doing body shots off bikini babes on spring break, doesn’t mean Patrick Schwarzenegger cheated on Miley Cyrus, says Patrick Schwarzenegger.

-This weekend at a con, David Tennant adorably helped a young fan ask a girl out because he’s a perfect human being.

-It’s weird that Community starts again tomorrow and the interwebs is oddly quiet about it. Early reviews are mixed to positive.

-Uh oh. David Lynch says the third season of Twin Peaks may not happen after all due to contract “complications”.

-It’s time to rethink everything we thought we knew about Wilmer Valderrama. Demi Lovato says she “really wouldn’t be alive today without” him.

-Here’s a clip of Kristen Stewart and Juliette Binoche in Clouds of Sils Maria, a movie I saw at TIFF that I liked — ish.

–Kevin Bacon‘s ad about bacon and eggs is pretty wonderful. Your move, Jon Hamm.

-I’m glad that Amy Schumer‘s movie Trainwreck is getting such glowing reviews. Love her!

-Wait, Rita Wilson is a singer? She recruited Tom Hanks and Sara Bareilles to star in her new music video.

–Gillian Anderson is all smiles while promoting The Fall at BBC. I will never not love her.

-It looks like it’ll be another nasty divorce for Pamela Anderson. She’s taken out a restraining order against her estranged husband for alleged abuse.

-The CW released trailers for the remaining episodes of Arrow and The Flash and I want them in my eyeballs right this second.
