Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra Are New Parents

-Congrats to Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra, who’ve welcomed a baby girl via surrogate.

Adele posted a tearful video about cancelling her Vegas residency the day before she was set to start. “We’ve tried absolutely everything we that can to pull it together in time, and for it to be good enough for you, but we’ve been absolutely destroyed by delivery delays and COVID… half my team and half my crew are down with COVID they still are and it’s been impossible to finish the show.” It’s a heartbreaking video but god, I hope she figures out a way to make it up to the fans who’d already travelled to Vegas for this weekend’s show. She’s clearly there already so I wonder if she could host an event for any ticket holder who can prove they booked their hotel before she made the announcement or something?

-Another rough day in celebrity deaths. Singer Meat Loaf has died at aged 74, while comedian Louie Anderson has died at 68 following a battle with cancer.

The actress, who starred in Grande’s “Thank U Next” music video, shared, “You should know, it was sort of the beginning of a lot of cool things that happened for me. I was going through a dead zone, not much was going on. Then Ariana did this imitation on your show and you encouraged her. And then this ball got rolling.”

-Meanwhile, she’s returning to The White Lotus for season two, thank god.

-Supernatural fans, rejoice: a cast-heavy rewatch podcast series is coming.

Cynthia Nixon responded to Chris Noth’s removal from the finale of HBO Max’s And Just Like That following allegations of sexual assault. “I think we were very lucky that those changes were able to be made. And I think we are very proud of our show.”

-Speaking of And Just Like That, Sarita Choudhury (who plays Carrie’s real estate agent Seema) says she was “shocked” by the flak the show got.

Whoopi Goldberg is back in the trailer for Star Trek: Picard’s second season.

Bill Paxton’s family can seek punitive damages against Cedars-Sinai in a wrongful death suit. The late actor’s family claims the hospital and his doctor covered up their negligence by not performing an autopsy and they didn’t learn one hadn’t been done until after the actor had been cremated.

-Um, should I be watching Peacemaker? ‘Cause this clip of Adrian Chase/Vigilante is amazing (and not cause it stars the cute guy from Bridgerton and UnREAL).

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.

-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.

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.

-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.

-Disney+ claims The Falcon and The Winter Soldier premiere was its most watched ever and I guess we’re just supposed to take their word for it because that’s how streamers work.

-The trailer for Chuck Lorre‘s new CBS sitcom debuted this weekend, and the reaction was swift and negative. Oh, and the concept might have been stolen!

-The Academy Awards are hoping to have a Zoom-free ceremony. “We are going to great lengths to provide a safe and enjoyable evening for all of you in person, as well as for all the millions of film fans around the world, and we feel the virtual thing will diminish those efforts.”
