  • The Bravos at BravoCon 2025: What You Might Not See on TV (Excl)

    [ad_1]

    Andy Cohen and most of Bravo’s household names celebrated Bravowood’s Biggest Night with the return of The Bravos award show during BravoCon 2025.

    Andy, 57, hosted the now-annual Bravos on Friday, November 14, live at Las Vegas’ Planet Hollywood, which will air on the TV network Sunday, November 16. While the event was packed with memorable moments, plenty of zingers and an overwhelming amount of emotion, there’s no guarantee that everything that was said will make it to air.

    Keep scrolling for the biggest moments to come out of The Bravos:

    No One Was Spared From Andy’s Opening Monologue

    Andy, to no one’s surprise, roasted the Bravo stars in his opening number, including Craig Conover.

    Seemingly introducing Craig, 36, Andy called him a hot jet-setter and host of a successful podcast.

    “Oh wait, those are all words to describe Paige [DeSorbo],” Andy added, referring to the Summer House alum who broke up with Craig late last year.

    While the joke sparked a loud chorus of “oooohs” from the audience, when the camera panned to the Southern Charm personality, he laughed at the joke.

    Squashing the Beef From the ATL

    Kandi Burruss earned the evening’s top prize, the Wivetime Achievement Award, which had only previously been given out to Vicki Gunvalson. During Kandi’s rousing acceptance speech, she thanked everyone she filmed with “for the good [and] the bad.”

    In a surprise turn of events, her former Real Housewives of Atlanta frenemies Phaedra Parks and Kim Zolciak were spotted clapping in the crowd. Kim, 47, even shed a tear over Kandi’s emotional RHOA tribute.

    The Grand Dame Has Arrived

    Karen Huger presented the first award of the night — marking her first BravoCon appearance since her release from prison — and received a standing ovation.

    Karen, 62, who skipped the Real Housewives of Potomac panel earlier on Friday, had been released from jail two months earlier. Karen was found guilty of a DUI and DWI in connection with a 2024 car accident.

    The ‘OG of the OC’ Is Officially Back

    During the ceremony, Andy confirmed that Vicki, 63, planned to return to The Real Housewives of Orange County, and she appeared especially emotional to receive her orange. Afterward, her costars Heather Dubrow, Shannon Beador, Gretchen Rossi, Gina Kirschenheiter, Emily Simpson and Jen Pedranti offered a series of hugs. Other Bravolebrities, including Kyle Richards, also shared their well wishes.

    A Slip of the Tongue

    Teresa Giudice accidentally stated, “And the Oscar goes to” while presenting the Best Quote category. Andy later joked about the mishap during a commercial break.

    Teresa, 53, ultimately presented the non-Oscar trophy to Adriana de Moura for her “Haitian Mortician” tirade during the Real Housewives of Miami reunion. (Adriana, 59, claimed that Julia Lemigova had an affair with a “Haitian mortician” at a local motel, who responded that she told her costar about her past in confidence.)

    Afterward, Julia, 53, yelled out, “You’re welcome,” from her place in the crowd.

    Fan-demonium 

    RHOA newcomer Angela Oakley proclaimed she loved her fans while presenting an award with The Valley’s Kristen Doute.

    “Oh, then you’d love Janet [Caperna] from The Valley,” Kristen, 42, said of her costar’s past love of watching her former show, Vanderpump Rules.

    All About Comfort

    When Mary Cosby and Angie Katsanevas won Best Fight Over Nothing for their comments about flatulence on The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City season 6, Mary, 53, was spotted without her shoes. She quickly had to put her footwear back on before taking the stage.

    Kim Zolciak Gives a Dating Update

    Elsewhere during the Bravos, Andy asked Kim whether she was dating amid her divorce from Kroy Biermann. (Kim and Kroy, 40, separated in 2023.)

    “Andy, you met him,” Kim replied, playing coy about her mystery man.

    A Round of Boos

    Gretchen Rossi received a handful of boos after Andy approached her and mentioned his monologue joke about Slade Smiley. (Gretchen, 47, and Slade, 52, have been engaged since 2013.)

    It wasn’t expressly clear whether the reaction was directed at Gretchen, Slade or both.

    Kyle and Amanda’s United Front

    After a source told Us Weekly that Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula were working through a rough patch in their marriage, they sat together at the Summer House cast table during the Bravos.

    When Kyle, 43, later presented a pet-themed award with Kyle Richards, he joked that the 56-year-old RHOBH star and his wife both have adopted pets. Amanda, 34, smiled at the reference.

    It’s So Chic

    Dorit Kemsley took home the prize for Item of the Year for the cigarette she infamously smoked in the car on RHOBH amid her separation from Paul “PK” Kemsley. Taking the stage in celebration, Dorit, 49, pulled out a cigarette and pretended to smoke it.

  • Americana Troubadour Todd Snider, Alt-Country Singer-Songwriter, Dies at 59

    [ad_1]

    NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Todd Snider, a singer whose thoughtfully freewheeling tunes and cosmic-stoner songwriting made him a beloved figure in American roots music, has died. He was 59.

    His record label said Saturday in a statement posted to his social media accounts that Snider died Friday.

    “Where do we find the words for the one who always had the right words, who knew how to distill everything down to its essence with words and song while delivering the most devastating, hilarious, and impactful turn of phrases?” the statement read. “Always creating rhyme and meter that immediately felt like an old friend or a favorite blanket. Someone who could almost always find the humor in this crazy ride on Planet Earth.”

    Snider’s family and friends had said in a Friday statement that he had been diagnosed with pneumonia at a hospital in Hendersonville, Tennessee, and that his situation had since grown more complicated and he was transferred elsewhere. The diagnosis came on the heels of the cancellation of a tour after Snider had been the victim of a violent assault in the Salt Lake City area, according to a Nov. 3 statement from his management team.

    But Salt Lake City police later arrested Snider himself when he at first refused to leave a hospital and later returned and threatened staffers, the Salt Lake Tribune reported.

    He modeled himself on — and at times met and was mentored by — artists like Kris Kristofferson, Guy Clark and John Prine. His songs were recorded by artists including Jerry Jeff Walker, Billy Joe Shaver and Tom Jones. And he co-wrote a song with Loretta Lynn that appeared on her 2016 album, “Full Circle.”

    “He relayed so much tenderness and sensitivity through his songs, and showed many of us how to look at the world through a different lens,” the Saturday statement from his label read. “He got up every morning and started writing, always working towards finding his place among the songwriting giants that sat on his record shelves, those same giants who let him into their lives and took him under their wings, who he studied relentlessly.”

    Snider would do his best-known and most acclaimed work for Prine’s independent label Oh Boy in the early 2000s. It included the albums “New Connection,” “Near Truths and Hotel Rooms” and “East Nashville Skyline,” a 2004 collection that’s considered by many to be his best.

    Those albums yielded his best known songs, “I Can’t Complain,” “Beer Run” and “Alright Guy.”

    Snider was born and raised in Oregon before settling and making his musical chops in San Marcos, Texas. He eventually made his way to Nashville, and was dubbed by some the unofficial “mayor of East Nashville,” assuming the title from a friend memorialized thusly in his “Train Song.” In 2021, Snider said a tornado that ripped through the neighborhood home to a vibrant arts scene severely damaged his house.

    Snider had an early fan in Jimmy Buffett, who signed the young artist to his record label, Margaritaville, which released his first two albums, 1994’s “Songs for the Daily Planet” and 1996’s “Step Right Up.”

  • Claire Danes and Matthew Rhys Merge Their Parallel Lives for ‘The Beast in Me’

    [ad_1]

    When prestige TV was first thought to be eclipsing movies, with quality scripts and meaty acting roles, two shows frequently bandied about were “Homeland” with Claire Danes and “The Americans” starring Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell.

    Danes acknowledges other parallels with Rhys.

    “I mean, you married an American lady, I married a British gentleman,” she said, referring to her marriage to Hugh Dancy and Rhys’ partner, Russell.

    “We’ve just been mirroring each other’s lives,” added Rhys, noting that they also had children around the same time.

    Danes and Rhys had never worked together, until now. They co-star in the new cat-and-mouse limited series, “The Beast in Me,” streaming on Netflix.

    Danes plays Aggie, a prickly Pulitzer prize-winning author who has a looming deadline for her second book and a major case of writers’ block. She’s also grieving the death of her young son and dissolution of her marriage soon after. When Rhys’ Nile, a real estate tycoon, moves in next door, his reputation precedes him because he was a suspect in his ex-wife’s disappearance. Nile’s aggressive dogs and loud security alarm unnerves Aggie. He and his new wife try to charm the neighbors but she’s a tough nut to crack and returns their gifted bottle of wine.

    “You’re not how I pictured you…at all,” Nile says to Aggie in an early encounter. “On the page you’re a lot more self-assured.” Somehow he entices Aggie to have lunch and the ice between them begins to thaw.

    “I think they’re both crazy smart and rarely encounter another person who thinks as quickly as they do. They’re kind of hyper-perceptive. And they kind of enjoy challenging each other,” said Danes.

    Although she doesn’t completely trust Nile, Aggie proposes she write a book about him to get his narrative out there.

    “He goes, ‘Hang on, I can undo this kind of, you know, a societal scar that I’ve been living with, and I can possibly clear my name,” said Rhys. “He foolishly thinks he could use Aggie in that sense.”

    “The Beast in Me” reunites Danes with some of the team who worked on “Homeland,” including showrunner Howard Gordon.

    When filming began, only three scripts had been written so no one really knew what was going to happen. “We were all discovering the evolution of the story in real time,” said Danes, who adds her history with the production team made her “trust them implicitly.” Even Rhys was OK with the unknown because it served his portrayal of Nile.

    “In a way it’s kind of liberating because then you’re only playing the present and what’s on the page in that moment,” he said. “Sometimes I think when you do know the outcome, I have a tendency sometimes to kind of play into that or to do something ridiculous that flags it. So there’s freedom in the fact that you don’t know.”

    What they knew for sure was to lean into their character’s unlikely chemistry.

    “The pyrotechnics were pretty much contained within these sparring sessions. There is a little murder in there, but that’s not where the tension really lies. They are hiding a lot from each other. They’re playing each other but they also are forging a genuine intimacy and connection that unnerves both of them.”

    “I mean there’s actually nothing I enjoy more than that,” she said.

  • Mormon Wives’ Jessi Ngatikaura Gives Marriage Update Amid Cheating Rumors

    [ad_1]

    The Secret Life of Mormon Wives‘ Jessi Ngatikaura recently opened up about her marriage to husband Jordan amid a cheating scandal. During the Season 2 finale of Mormon Wives, Marciano Brunette claimed that he and Ngatikaura had an affair at Vanderpump Villa. At present, Ngatikaura revealed that she and Jordan have reconciled and are improving their relationship as they are taking therapy sessions.

    Jessi Ngatikaura shares update on marriage with husband Jordan

    In a conversation with E! News, Ngatikaura revealed where her relationship with husband, Jordan, currently stands. She said, “We are back together. We’re trying to work on it. Relationships are not perfect. I think a situation like ours, it’s going to take time. It’s not going to something that’s just amazing overnight.”

    She further revealed that they’re working on their relationship and have started therapy. They are dedicated to sharing their journey with the audience, with the aim of helping those facing similar difficulties. “We’re in therapy. We have our ups and downs, but we’re just showcasing our story, hoping it can help others and that they can relate to it ’cause it’s real,” she added.

    Earlier, there were rumors that Ngatikaura had cheated on her husband Jordan with Brunette during a difficult phase in marriage. In an interview with PEOPLE, Ngatikaura confirmed these rumors, revealing that she did have an affair. She admitted that the couple “both made mistakes for sure.”

    She said, “Mine being the affair and his being the emotional abuse, but I think it takes two to tango. And having that toxic dynamic definitely got me into the mindset of where I was and why I did what I did.”

    Ngatikaura admitted that mistakes happened on both ends, but coming out clean about it publicly led them to take a positive step in their relationship. “I wish I never had, and I hope Jordan feels the same about how he treated me for a while. But yes, it took both of us to get there. I think having it come out publicly was a good wake-up call for us because it got us help,” she explained.

  • Golden Bachelor Runner-Up Confronts Mel After Finale Self-Elimination

    [ad_1]

    Golden Bachelor Mel Owens is providing some clarity — and closure – to runner-up Cindy Angelcyk Cullers after their shocking split.

    During the Wednesday, November 12, finale, Cindy, 60, left Mel, 66, during her Fantasy Suite date after realizing that Mel was unsure about getting married to either her or Peg Munson.

    “I don’t need to convince a man to love me,” she told host Jesse Palmer during After the Final Rose, noting that she was even willing to move from Texas to California to be with Mel.

    Moments later, Cindy came face to face with Mel.

    “Going back to the dock was interesting to watch. I had replayed in my mind a million time because I really thought it was you. I really thought it was you,” she told Mel. “I’m just disappointed that you got that far without helping me understand that you weren’t ready for a commitment. Not just me, but all those women that you brought along this journey when did you know that you weren’t ready for something.”

    Mel, meanwhile, asserted that he was “ready” to make a lasting commitment but simply needed more time.

    “What you wanted was a proposal. But there’s another person there. And you can’t just leapfrog over that person,” he said, referring to Peg. “You have to continue the journey like I told you before it’s going to take time. You know the saying, first comes love, then comes marriage, then baby carriage. That won’t happen but that’s the saying. We talked about the leap of faith, I don’t operate that way in my life.”

    He then told Jesse, “My feelings for [Cindy] were straightforward. I liked her or we wouldn’t have been in Antigua together.”


    Cindy.     Disney/John Fleenor

    At the end of the day, Cindy said the pair just weren’t “aligned” in what they wanted.

    “I’m a very wise woman. [I knew I was] not getting married. There was no wedding at the end of this week,” she continued. “There was a hope of commitment and to take this fairytale into a happily ever after. That’s what I was hoping for. I even told you I would be willing to leave my life in Austin, move to near you, not with you but near you, to pursue a life with you.”

    Through it all, Cindy hopes that Mel finds The One.

    “I want you to be happy, I pray for you every day. You’re a great guy,” she concluded, also revealing whether she is ready to find lasting love. “My heart is wide open. I learned so much about myself on this journey. I believe [my person] is out there.”

    The episode kicked off after a cliff-hanger between Mel and Cindy, who wondered where their connection was going when he admitted he had hesitations about jumping into marriage again — and was undecided between the final two women.

    “I love spending time with you. I love being with you. You’re sharing, caring, smart, but it’s a difficult situation. I am torn between you and Peg,” Mel told Cindy, who admitted that she “wrestled with trying not to shut down” in the environment. “You’re a brave soul for sticking through it. It’s hard to find a partner, but it could happen here, right?”

    Ultimately, the pair didn’t spend their fantasy suite night together on the heels of his overnight date with Peg, which “exceeded” his expectations. Peg, for her part, shared a similar sentiment.

    Jesse Palmer has his eye on one of Golden Bachelor Mel Owens’ contestants to be the next leading lady of the franchise. “I personally love Debbie [Siebers], and I think her incredible story resonates with many,” Jesse, 47, told Entertainment Weekly on Wednesday, October 29. “I absolutely believe she should be in the running to […]

    “I feel like we understand each other better now,” she said in a confessional, after previously worrying whether Mel was “emotionally available” for a relationship. “All of my concerns definitely got answered last night.”

    Before the season came to a close, Mel exclusively told Us Weekly that he made a pros and cons list as he attempted to narrow down the group of women and find The One.

    “I usually don’t make those types of lists. I can do it in my head, but when you write stuff down, it’s meaningful,” Mel said in his Us cover story. “I wanted to write down my first impressions, the goods, the bads, the neutrals. It really didn’t sway me, but I could still look at it.”

    Season 2 Golden Bachelor Mel Owens is down to his final three. The 66-year-old former NFL player (turned lawyer turned reality TV personality) handed out three roses on the Wednesday, October 15, episode of the ABC series, giving Peg, Debbie and Cindy coveted hometown dates. “Your families, of course, are your biggest protectors and have […]

    “It was tough,” he continued, “and I’m just trying to figure out who is going to be the best fit for me, who I would enjoy. The hometowns are all great. But there’s that magnetism that pulls you in that direction no matter what, and it’s a little bit more toward one person than the other, so I went with my gut.”

    Mel noted that the show “can put on a production,” gushing over the picturesque backdrop in Antigua where he prepared to pop the question.

    “I’ve never been there,” he said of the location. “I’ve been to islands, but I’ve never been there. But whoever scouted it out and set it up and got things prepared, just the little details, it’s just so good.”

    In Mel’s perspective, the ending is “really emotional.”

    “And you’re a little nervous, but it’s so brilliant,” he said. “It’s so good, you won’t believe it. … You won’t believe how we get there, not mechanically, but how we get there emotionally. There’s some movement and twists and turns.”

    [ad_1]

    Elizabeth Olsen has addressed ongoing speculation about her future in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The actress offered a lighthearted response when asked if fans will have to wait an “eternity” for Scarlet Witch’s return. She hinted that her comeback may depend on fan demand, sparking speculation about her character’s fate in the MCU.

    Scarlet Witch’s Marvel return might need a fan petition, says Elizabeth Olsen

    Elizabeth Olsen has hinted that her return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe could depend on fan demand. In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, when asked if audiences would have to wait “an eternity” to see her reprise her role as Wanda Maximoff, the actress responded, “I mean, I don’t know. They might. Maybe they can petition.”

    Olsen also addressed whether she would consider returning if it meant reuniting with her Agatha: Coven of Chaos co-star Aubrey Plaza. “I would love to. That would be so fun,” she said. The actress also added, “I’d love to be reunited with so many people. I mean Aubrey and I, our characters have never met in that world. But it would be so nice to be reunited with all those people.” 

    Olsen also explained that one of the advantages of being involved in a franchise is the chance to return to a familiar cast and crew. She said, “Its so nice being a part of a franchise, because you get to return, you get to go back to a family.”

    The Marvel star has previously spoken about her attachment to the role. While promoting her film Eternity, she reflected on her Marvel journey, saying, “It is something that I love, and it’s something I always want to return to.” She added that there are still character arcs from the comics she hopes to bring to screen (via PEOPLE).

    Olsen’s Scarlet Witch, was last seen in 2022’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, where her fate appeared uncertain.

  • Teen Behind the Louvre Heist ‘Fedora Man’ Photo Embraces His Mystery Moment

    [ad_1]

    PARIS (AP) — When 15-year-old Pedro Elias Garzon Delvaux realized an Associated Press photo of him at the Louvre on the day of the crown jewels heist had drawn millions of views, his first instinct was not to rush online and unmask himself.

    Quite the opposite. A fan of Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot who lives with his parents and grandfather in Rambouillet, 30 kilometers (19 miles) from Paris, Pedro decided to play along with the world’s suspense.

    As theories swirled about the sharply dressed stranger in the “Fedora Man” shot — detective, insider, AI fake — he decided to stay silent and watch.

    “I didn’t want to say immediately it was me,” he said. “With this photo there is a mystery, so you have to make it last.”

    For his only in-person interview since that snap turned him into an international curiosity, he appeared for the AP cameras at his home much as he did that Sunday: in a fedora hat, Yves Saint Laurent waistcoat borrowed from his father, jacket chosen by his mother, neat tie, Tommy Hilfiger trousers and a restored, war-battered Russian watch.

    The fedora, angled just so, is his homage to French Resistance hero Jean Moulin.

    In person, he is a bright, amused teenager who wandered, by accident, into a global story.

    The image that made him famous was meant to document a crime scene. Three police officers lean on a silver car blocking a Louvre entrance, hours after thieves carried out a daylight raid on French crown jewels. To the right, a lone figure in a three-piece suit strides past — a flash of film noir in a modern-day manhunt.

    The internet did the rest. “Fedora Man,” as users dubbed him, was cast as an old-school detective, an inside man, a Netflix pitch — or not human at all. Many were convinced he was AI-generated.

    Pedro understood why. “In the photo, I’m dressed more in the 1940s, and we are in 2025,” he said. “There is a contrast.”

    Even some relatives and friends hesitated until they spotted his mother in the background. Only then were they sure: The internet’s favorite fake detective was a real boy.

    The real story was simple. Pedro, his mother and grandfather had come to visit the Louvre.

    “We wanted to go to the Louvre, but it was closed,” he said. “We didn’t know there was a heist.”

    They asked officers why the gates were shut. Seconds later, AP photographer Thibault Camus, documenting the security cordon, caught Pedro midstride.

    “When the picture was taken, I didn’t know,” Pedro said. “I was just passing through.”

    Four days later, an acquaintance messaged: Is that you?

    “She told me there were 5 million views,” he said. “I was a bit surprised.” Then his mother called to say he was in The New York Times. “It’s not every day,” he said. Cousins in Colombia, friends in Austria, family friends and classmates followed with screenshots and calls.

    “People said, ‘You’ve become a star,’” he said. “I was astonished that just with one photo you can become viral in a few days.”

    The look that jolted tens of millions is not a costume whipped up for a museum trip. Pedro began dressing this way less than a year ago, inspired by 20th-century history and black-and-white images of suited statesmen and fictional detectives.

    “I like to be chic,” he said. “I go to school like this.”

    In a sea of hoodies and sneakers, he shows up in a three-piece suit. And the hat? No, that’s its own ritual. The fedora is reserved for weekends, holidays and museum visits.

    At his no-uniform school, his style has already started to spread. “One of my friends came this week with a tie,” he said.

    He understands why people projected a whole sleuth character onto him: improbable heist, improbable detective. He loves Poirot — “very elegant” — and likes the idea that an unusual crime calls for someone who looks unusual. “When something unusual happens, you don’t imagine a normal detective,” he said. “You imagine someone different.”

    That instinct fits the world he comes from. His mother, Félicité Garzon Delvaux, grew up in an 18th-century museum-palace, daughter of a curator and an artist — and regularly takes her son to exhibits.

    “Art and museums are living spaces,” she said. “Life without art is not life.”

    For Pedro, art and imagery were part of everyday life. So when millions projected stories onto a single frame of him in a fedora beside armed police at the Louvre, he recognized the power of an image and let the myth breathe before stepping forward.

    He stayed silent for several days, then switched his Instagram from private to public.

    “People had to try to find who I am,” he said. “Then journalists came, and I told them my age. They were extremely surprised.”

    He is relaxed about whatever comes next. “I’m waiting for people to contact me for films,” he said, grinning. “That would be very funny.”

    In a story of theft and security lapses, “Fedora Man” is a gentler counterpoint — a teenager who believes art, style and a good mystery belong to ordinary life. One photo turned him into a symbol. Meeting him confirms he is, reassuringly, real.

    “I’m a star,” he says — less brag than experiment, as if he’s trying on the words the way he tries on a hat. “I’ll keep dressing like this. It’s my style.”

  • Jeremy Renner Accused by Filmmaker Yi Zhou of ‘Misconduct’ 

    [ad_1]

    Filmmaker Yi Zhou has come forward with allegations of misconduct against actor Jeremy Renner. She claimed that he shared inappropriate images and later threatened her after being confronted. Zhou, who worked with Renner on two upcoming projects, shared her accusations in a series of social media posts.

    Jeremy Renner faces ‘misconduct’ allegations from filmmaker Yi Zhou 

    The Hawkeye star has been accused of misconduct by Chinese filmmaker Yi Zhou, who recently collaborated with him on two projects, Chronicles of Disney and Stardust Future.

    Zhou shared her allegations in a series of social media posts on Instagram, claiming that Jeremy Renner sent her explicit photos. Moreover, he later threatened her after she confronted him about his behavior.

    In her statement, Zhou said that Renner initially contacted her directly in June and sent a “string of unwanted/unsolicited pornographic images of himself.” She alleged that when she addressed his behavior privately, he responded by threatening to “call immigration or ICE” on her.

    According to Zhou, this exchange left her feeling upset and intimidated. She wrote, “Such behavior is unacceptable and emblematic of the imbalance of power that continues to harm women in our industry.”

    The 37-year-old filmmaker also shared screenshots that she claimed were of her conversations with Renner. Additionally, she included messages from friends who expressed concern for her well-being.

    Previously, speaking with the Daily Mail, Yi Zhou alleged that Jeremy Renner became intoxicated and aggressive during a meeting about Chronicles of Disney at his home in Reno, Nevada, saying she locked herself in a bathroom out of fear.

    Zhou told the outlet that she and the Mayor of Kingstown actor developed a romantic relationship before working together. However, she alleged that he later denied the relationship publicly and refused to promote their films.

    “No woman, filmmaker, or creative should have to work under such emotional and psychological pressure while trying to protect her name and the integrity of her work,” Zhou added in her Instagram post.

    Meanwhile, Jeremy Renner has not yet responded publicly to the allegations.

    Pascal revealed it was his “first month” in New York City that he and Paulson crossed paths.

    “There are a couple of things that I probably shouldn’t say about all of us — we were 18-year-olds in New York City in 1993,” he recalled during a 2014 interview with Interview Magazine.

    Late 1990s

    Paulson “started working and never stopped,” which led to a brief period where they drifted apart.

    “You went to Los Angeles, and we didn’t reconnect until a few years later,” Pascal recalled in the same conversation. “I came to L.A. for a bit and then went back to New York. Even after going back to New York, we somehow went into chapter two of our friendship that — we attached to each other and haven’t been able to let go.”

    2000

    After Pascal moved back to New York City, Paulson helped financially support him — in some ways.

    “He’s talked about this publicly, but there were times when I would give him my per diem from a job I was working on so that he could have money to feed himself,” she told Esquire in April 2023.

  • Rachel Brosnahan Will Make Her Directorial Debut With Kate Spade Doc

    [ad_1]

    Rachel Brosnahan is adding director to her resume as she is going to helm a documentary about her late aunt, designer Kate Spade.

    Deadline reported on Thursday, November 6, that Brosnahan, 35, is going to make her feature directorial debut exploring the life and legacy of Spade. The project will be produced by Brosnahan’s production banner Scrap Paper Pictures, Fisher Stevens’ Highly Flammable and Connor Schell’s Words + Pictures.

    “Rachel is a remarkably talented storyteller and she has the most personal of connections to Kate Spade’s powerful story,” Words + Pictures’ founder Connor Schell said in a statement to the outlet. “We are thrilled to be working with her as she directs her first film.”

    Kate’s widow, Andy Spade, will also serve as an executive producer. (Kate and Andy tied the knot in 1994 and launched her brand Kate Spade New York together the previous year.)

    Rachel Brosnahan is paying tribute to her late aunt Kate Spade on the anniversary of her death. “Sometimes you run out of things to say except I miss you,” Brosnahan, 33, wrote via Instagram on Wednesday, June 5, alongside a sweet throwback photo of the Spade with her nieces and nephews. “6 years without Katy […]

    Additional details for the doc have yet to be released.

    Brosnahan was close to her aunt throughout her life. When Brosnahan took home the Golden Globe for her performance in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel in January 2018, Kate celebrated the news with her daughter, Frances Beatrix.

    “My daughter and I jumped up and down when she won,” Spade told Page Six at the time. “She deserves this recognition, as she’s put her heart and soul into the role. We are insanely proud.”

    In June 2018, Kate died by suicide at age 55. She was survived by Andy and Frances Beatrix.

    “We are all devastated by today’s tragedy,” the Spade family told The New York Times in a statement at the time. “We loved Kate dearly and will miss her terribly. We would ask that our privacy be respected as we grieve during this very difficult time.”

    Since Kate’s tragic passing, Brosnahan has honored her aunt on multiple occasions.

    “Can’t believe it’s been 5 years. I’ve been thinking about Katy a lot lately because 10 years ago, when I was making my Broadway debut, she let me crash in their extra bedroom while I figured out my living situation,” the actress wrote via Instagram in June 2023 alongside a throwback snap of her and Kate when she was a kid. “She included me in family dinners every night while we were in rehearsals and would keep extra food for me in the fridge for when I came home from tech and previews. She would always ask about the play and came with bells on (and the most fabulous outfit) to our opening night. She told me she sobbed through the bows because she was proud.”

    Brosnahan continued, “But I’m not alone in that experience. That was the magic of Katy. She loved so hard she was often moved to tears, and laughter that moved through her entire body and joy that radiated out her pores. She spread stardust over everyone she came into contact with. I was lucky to be in her orbit. It’s strange to be in New York without her. Its strange to be back on stage without her. But also, she’s still here.”

  • Love Is Blind’s Madison Thinks Joe and Kacie Were ‘Using Each Other’

    [ad_1]

    Love Is Blind season 9 star Madison Maidenberg has a theory about her ex-fiancé Joe Ferrucci briefly dating fellow contestant Kacie McIntosh.

    “I don’t know if we can call it dating, first of all,” Madison, 28, said on the Wednesday, November 5, episode of the “What’s the Reality?” podcast. “I think they were mutually using each other’s bodies. That’s what I think was going on.”

    Madison and Joe, 29, got engaged sight unseen during Love Is Blind season 9 but didn’t make it to the aisle. Joe ended their engagement after his wedding tux fitting, claiming that he suddenly realized Madison wasn’t The One.

    Within weeks, Joe started seeing Kacie, 34. (Kacie had been single after ending her Love Is Blind engagement to Patrick Suzuki hours after they met in person.)


    Related: Love Is Blind’s Joe Addresses Claims There Was ‘Overlap’ With Madison, Kacie

    The Love Is Blind season 9 reunion saw ex-fiancés Joe Ferrucci and Madison Maidenberg pointing fingers regarding their broken engagement. “At this point, I’ve accepted that I’m not going to get a full sentence from Joe as far as what actually happened,” Madison, 28, said during the Wednesday, October 29, special. “So, that’s OK.” Joe, […]

    “I knew that it started probably a month after our engagement ended,” Madison told podcast host and franchise alum AD Smith. “It’s alleged. I don’t know exactly the timeline. I can’t totally speak to it, but I do know the night of tux fittings, we had gone to [meet] a few of the couples — and a bunch of singles showed up.”

    While Madison told several of Joe’s friends that she picked her wedding dress and was “so excited” to tie the knot, she allegedly looked across the room to find Joe in conversation with Kacie.

    “As I’m standing there with a ring on my finger, I look over and Kacie has both hands on Joe’s chest, talking to him,” Madison claimed. “In Joe’s words, he said, ‘She was giving me googly eyes.’ … I don’t know if it started then or later.”

    Both Joe and Kacie denied Madison’s version of events, stressing that they only explored a romantic connection after her engagement had already been called off.

    Another month later, Kacie confided in Madison about the nature of her relationship with Joe at costar Mike Brockway’s pool party.

    “I was standing in a group. Kacie came to the party, she’s making rounds [and] saying hello,” Madison recalled on Wednesday. “She came up to a group of us girls and I was asking her, like, ‘How’s wedding season going?’ I already [knew] about the her and Joe thing, [so] I said, ‘How’s dating going?’ She was like, ‘Oh, you know, good.’”

    According to Madison, the hairstylist said that she was “meaning to talk to” her about the situation.

    Love Is Blind season 9 star Joe Ferrucci is speaking out following his shocking split from ex-fiancée Madison Maidenberg, filling in what you didn’t see on TV during an exclusive interview with Us Weekly. “My connection with Madison in the pods was great. There were a lot of butterflies. It was a very deep connection. […]

    “We go sit down, there is no recognition of the fact that [she was] talking to his ex-fiancée,” Madison said. “She immediately starts talking to me about how he treated her poorly, [and] she went so far to say, ‘Oh, we’re Eskimo sisters’ to me. I said to her, ‘I’m gonna say to your face what I’ve been saying. I don’t respect your choice. The way that you’ve gone about this has been classless and it does hurt me.’”

    Joe and Kacie both shut down Madison’s accusations during the season 9 reunion, which aired late last month.

    “[It was] a month and a half. I think it just kind of fizzled out. It just ultimately didn’t work out,” Joe said of his connection with Kacie. “That has nothing to do with [my engagement]. That was after, and that was never in my mind when I broke it off.”

    Madison and Kacie are both still single, while Joe has since moved on with Denver-based dating coach Averee Madison.

    Love Is Blind is streaming on Netflix.

  • The Golden Bachelor’s Theresa Nist Recalls Gerry Turner’s ‘Disturbing’ Joke

    [ad_1]

    In a recent interview, The Golden Bachelor’s Theresa Nist recalled a troubling joke her ex-husband, Gerry Turner, told her while they were together. Nist speculated that Turner’s joke masked the hatred he had for her, but expressed her belief that the latter wasn’t going to act on it. Turner and Nist got engaged in November 2023 but divorced several months later in April 2024.

    Theresa Nist claims Gerry Turner joked about chopping her up

    Theresa Nist recently appeared on the Dear Shandy podcast — hosted by Sharleen Joynt and Andy Levine — where she discussed her former marriage to Gerry Turner. During the interview, Nist brought up a disturbing incident where The Golden Bachelor star jokingly threatened to kill her.

    The 72-year-old revealed that she and Turner once took a walk around Pretty Lake and that the latter pointed a shed to her as they were concluding their walk. She alleged that the latter said he would hide her body there after killing and chopping her up. She recalled that Turner wasn’t laughing while telling her this. “Well, if this was his idea of a joke, that was pretty dark humor,” she remarked.

    “I just felt like there was animosity in that statement that was underlying,” she further stated. “Like, maybe if he could have gotten rid of me somehow.”

    Nist expressed her belief that Turner wouldn’t actually act on his joke, even though it was disturbing. “It’s not true, but it just spoke to an underlying feeling about me,” she added.

    Nist’s recollection of the incident comes two days after Turner told Fox News Digital that his marriage to the former was “a monumental mistake.” He added that he hurt Nist and his family and was also “imperfect” with many things during their marriage. “There was no one flash-bang moment where I realized the marriage was over,” he further stated. “It was a gradual march toward the end.”

    Moreover, it also comes one month after Turner told US Weekly that Nist “should be worried” about reading the former’s memoir Golden Years. Joynt brought this comment up on the podcast, saying it sounded threatening. Nist concurred, wondering why Turner would say something like that.

  • Former DWTS Host Brooke Burke Won’t Attend Show’s 20th Birthday Special

    [ad_1]

    Former Dancing With the Stars host Brooke Burke won’t be making a return to the ballroom for the show’s 20th birthday special after her 2014 exit.

    Burke, 54, explained why she won’t be attending the highly anticipated event during the Tuesday, November 4, episode of Jennie Garth’s “I Choose Me” podcast.

    “A redo is hard for me,” Burke told fellow former contestant Garth, 53. “I guess there’s some things that are worth a repeat in your life, but I feel like I wrung it out and I did everything I needed to do on that show.”

    Burke added that despite the “amazing relationships” she formed during her time on DWTS as both a competitor and as cohost, she ultimately feels her time on the series is behind her. “It was one of the most watched shows on television. It would be hard to go back there with the same level of excitement and appreciation,” she said.


    Related: Brooke Burke Recalls ‘Really Disappointing’ Exit as ‘DWTS’ Cohost

    Brooke Burke did not hold back while sharing her true feelings about her exit from cohosting Dancing With the Stars. When asked whether she “had enough” of her hosting gig, Burke, 52, replied on the Sunday, July 7, episode of the “Getting Grilled With Curtis Stone” podcast, “I probably had enough, but then when you […]

    Garth, for her part, joked that she also “got an email” about the special — which airs November 11 — that she “purposely did not read.”

    Burke and Garth were both paired with former pro Derek Hough — now a judge on the show — during their respective seasons. Garth landed in fourth place on season 5 in 2007, Hough’s first season, while Burke and Hough took home the mirrorball two seasons later. Burke later hosted the show with Tom Bergeron from seasons 10 through 17.

    “I never say no, never closed doors professionally, but I mean, it was eight seasons, and I did everything I needed to do in the ballroom,” Burke continued, adding that she “had so much fun” on DWTS even though it was “one of the hardest things I’ve ever done in my entire life.”

    This isn’t the first time Burke has addressed her exit from DWTS. She opened up about being let go from the show during a 2024 episode of Getting Grilled With Curtis Stone, revealing that while she was “ready to do other things” at the time, it was “disappointing” to find out she wasn’t being asked back.

    “But I think it’s shocking when there’s a change in our business, just to humanize it, to be honest, to be vulnerable,” she added. “I think it was really disappointing. I wasn’t expecting it.”

    As for why she was “let go,” Burke said there were a “number of reasons on both sides.”

    Burke detailed how she found out she wouldn’t be returning for season 18 on her Modern Mom blog shortly after the news broke in 2014.

    “The only shocking thing about it, for me, was the way in which it all went down,” she wrote, claiming she found out “just weeks” before the premiere. “I would have appreciated a heads-up and the courtesy of communication, but we are not always privileged to get that in the workplace.”

    She also shared how difficult it was to tell her kids, who didn’t understand the difference between being let go and being fired. (Burke shares kids Neriah, 24, Sierra, 22, Heaven, 18, and Shaya, 16, with exes Garth Fisher and David Charet.)

    “My son shouted, ‘You got fired, Mommy?!’” she remembered son Shaya asking her. “I tried to explain the difference between being fired and being let go. Then he yelled, ‘You quit!’ I laughed at the fine line in it all. Then I did my very best to describe to my children the reality of change and the need to maneuver through it with grace.”

    Burke is not the only DWTS cohost to be asked to exit the ballroom over the years. Audiences were shocked when original emcee Bergeron announced in July 2020 that he and then-cohost Erin Andrews would not be returning for season 29.

    “Just informed @DancingABC will be continuing without me,” Bergeron wrote via X at the time. “It’s been an incredible 15-year run and the most unexpected gift of my career. I’m grateful for that and for the lifelong friendships made. That said, now what am I supposed to do with all of these glitter masks?”

    He later appeared on an October 2023 episode of Cheryl Burke’s “Sex, Lies and Spray Tans” podcast to discuss his exit, claiming his desire to keep politics out of the ballroom was partially to blame. (Bergeron was previously vocal about Sean Spicer’s casting on season 28.)

    “I’m sure they’ll give you a different reason [as for why I was fired],” he added, noting that he would “never” return as host. “It’s not the same show. It’s not the same world. There’s no point. What would I prove? … Let the show either exist with the fresh blood that it has now or die a natural death.”

    Dancing With the Stars’ 20th Birthday Special airs on ABC and Disney+ Tuesday, November 11, at 8 p.m. ET. It will be available to stream next day on Hulu.

  • Golden Bachelor’s Gerry Turner Compares Theresa Nist Wedding to ‘Funeral’

    [ad_1]

    Former Golden Bachelor Gerry Turner does not have the fondest memories from his wedding to Theresa Nist.

    “It was butterflies and an anticipated funeral rather than a wedding,” Gerry, 74, said on the Monday, November 3, episode of the Tamron Hall Show, recalling how he was feeling the night before marrying Theresa, 72. “There were a lot of mixed feelings. And I had just come off of, really, a high-velocity, artificial environment and I’m right at the end and I’m wondering whether I’m doing the right thing.”

    Despite having cold feet, Gerry ultimately went through with the wedding and said “I do” to Theresa in 2024. The pair announced their plans to divorce months later, with Gerry releasing his side of the story in his memoir, Golden Years: What I’ve Learned from Love, Loss, and Reality TV, out on Tuesday, November 4.

    When asked how much he thought about Theresa while reliving their journey together in his book, Gerry replied, “A lot.”

    “I mean, early in the book and for most of the book, I’m very complimentary of Theresa and all the women and the relationship that I was building with her and so forth,” Gerry shared on Monday. “But, here again, the rest of the story is that when she said on the show that she was ready to quit her job, and then afterwards, that she wanted to continue working, there was a point where I knew deep down inside there was not going to be a compromise that worked.”

    Tamron Hall, meanwhile, pushed back on Gerry’s idea that he was “complimentary” of Theresa, noting that the former lead believed his ex-wife “created a narrative that she was a victim.”

    “I don’t think that’s a compliment. But that’s your point of view, which is fair,” Tamron said, while Gerry added, “I mean it’s my truth. It’s what I believe.”

    Tamron clarified that she was not criticizing Gerry for his comments, but rather pointing out that “it takes a lot to say, ‘This is my truth and I’m standing on it.’”

    When The Golden Bachelor premiered in 2023, Gerry Turner seemed like the wonderfully earnest antidote to the franchise’s usual chaos — a Midwestern widower with a tender heart and just the right amount of dad (even grandpa!) energy. As the inaugural lead of the show’s later-in-life spinoff, By the time he proposed to Theresa Nist […]

    One day later, Theresa fired back at Gerry’s claims in his book — including that he felt “trapped” the night before marrying her. Theresa alleged that the pair never had a conversation about where he stood, and she would have been “relieved” if he shared his nerves with her.

    “I have to say that I always said I like to live my life without regrets, but boy I made some mistakes here. I regret getting married so quickly. That shouldn’t have happened,” Theresa shared on the Tuesday episode of the “Dear Shandy” podcast.

    While relaying a message to Gerry, Theresa shared elsewhere in the podcast that he did her “no favors” by continuing on with their nuptials. She added, “You should have called off the wedding.”

    Gerry, meanwhile, has moved on with Lana Sutton — announcing the pair’s engagement in October. Theresa, for her part, is still hopeful about finding love later in life.

    “I really do want to get married. I do want love in my life. That’s what I wanted,” she said on Tuesday. “That was the whole point of this.”

  • Bruce Springsteen Performs at New York Public Library Gala

    [ad_1]

    Bruce Springsteen was among six honorees Monday night at the library’s annual “Library Lions” gala, which pays tribute to “outstanding achievements” in arts, culture, letters and scholarship. Others receiving medals were producer-writer Shonda Rhimes and authors James Patterson, Daniel Kehlmann and Louise Erdrich and author-musician James McBride, with whom Springsteen exchanged hugs and greetings shortly before guests were seated for dinner.

    Held in the grand auspices of the main research room of the 5th Avenue branch in Manhattan, the ceremony was brief, and without acceptance speeches. But NYPL President Anthony Marx promised a “special treat” was upcoming, and a few minutes later reintroduced Springsteen, his jacket now off and a guitar in hand.

    “I’ve played fireman’s fairs. I’ve played bowling alleys. I’ve played pizza parlors,” Springsteen related to the hundreds of attendees in his raspy drawl. “I’ve played hockey rinks. I’ve played weddings. I’ve played Bar Mitzvahs. I’ve played insane asylums. I’ve played football stadiums.”

    “But I have never played a (expletive) library.”

    After laughter and applause, Springsteen settled into a slow, soulful performance of “Thunder Road,” scatting the closing passage once filled by the saxophone of Clarence Clemons. To a standing ovation and familiar calls of “Bruuuuce,” he wished everyone good night and added a well-placed message, “Read a book!”

    Springsteen has a history of surprise performances. At the New York Film Festival in late September, he turned up after a screening of the biopic “Deliver Me from Nowhere,” starring Jeremy Allen White as Springsteen, and sang “Land of Hopes and Dreams.”

  • Hot Tub Time Machine Star Gives Hopeful Update on 3rd Movie

    [ad_1]

    After nearly a decade of silence, Hot Tub Time Machine’s Craig Robinson has given an update on Part 3. The iconic comedy franchise, which began with the 2010 cult favorite about four friends who accidentally travel back to 1986 through a magical hot tub, could be preparing for a long-awaited comeback.

    Craig Robinson says Hot Tub Time Machine 3 is ‘ready to go’

    It’s been over 10 years since Hot Tub Time Machine 2 hit theaters, but according to franchise star Craig Robinson, the third movie might be closer than fans think. While promoting his upcoming Netflix film In Your Dreams, Robinson shared a hopeful update on the long-delayed sequel.

    “It’s so ready to go, but that’s one of those things that have to, you know, Divine Order has to take place, or something,” Robinson told CBR. The actor revealed that while the cast remains busy, something beyond scheduling seems to be holding the project back. “Hot Tub Time Machine 2 just kind of happened, you know, called a meeting, and then next thing we were on our way.”

    The first Hot Tub Time Machine became a modest hit in 2010, earning around $65 million on a $36 million budget and later building a cult following through home video sales. The success prompted a quick turnaround for the sequel, released in 2015. However, Hot Tub Time Machine 2 fell short both critically and commercially, making reportedly only $12.3 million domestically, which was less than the first film’s opening weekend.

    That box office failure likely explains the long pause before any talk of a third film. Still, the creative team behind the franchise hasn’t given up hope. Back in 2022, Robinson told CinemaBlend that writer Josh Heald had “an idea for part three that is (does ‘mind blown’ movement) so I would like to see that happen.” In 2024, Heald told Syfy that the potential third installment would be “a bigger movie” exploring the concept of the multiverse.

    While there’s no official confirmation on Hot Tub Time Machine 3, until then, fans can catch Craig Robinson in Netflix’s animated adventure In Your Dreams, where he voices Baloney Tony. It releases on the streaming platform on November 14.

  • Diane Ladd, 3-Time Oscar Nominee, Dies at 89

    [ad_1]

    OJAI, Calif. (AP) — Diane Ladd, the three-time Academy Award nominee whose roles ranged from the brash waitress in “Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore” to the protective mother in “Wild at Heart,” has died at 89.

    Ladd’s death was announced Monday by daughter Laura Dern, who issued a statement saying her mother and occasional co-star had died at her home in Ojai, California, with Dern at her side. Dern, who called Ladd her “amazing hero” and “profound gift of a mother,′ did not immediately cite a cause of death.

    “She was the greatest daughter, mother, grandmother, actress, artist and empathetic spirit that only dreams could have seemingly created,” Dern wrote. “We were blessed to have her. She is flying with her angels now.”

    A gifted comic and dramatic performer, Ladd had a long career in television and on stage before breaking through as a film performer in Martin Scorsese’s 1974 release “Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore.” She earned an Oscar nomination for supporting actor for her turn as the acerbic, straight-talking Flo, and went on to appears in dozens of movies over the following decades. Her many credits included “Chinatown,” “Primary Colors” and two other movies for which she received best supporting nods, “Wild at Heart” and “Rambling Rose.”

  • Stephen Colbert Feels ‘A Sense of Relief’ About Late Show Ending

    [ad_1]

    Stephen Colbert is opening up about his next chapter after CBS canceled his late night show.

    In a new interview with GQ, which was conducted shortly before The Late Show With Stephen Colbert won big at the 2025 Emmy Awards, Colbert, 61, said he “accepted” the network’s decision to pull the plug on his show.

    “Listen, every show’s got to end at some time,” Colbert told GQ. “And I’ve been on a bunch of shows that have ended sometimes by our lights and sometimes by the decision of other people. And that’s just the nature of show business. You can’t worry about that. You got to be a big boy about that. But I think we’re the first number one show to ever get canceled.”

    When the interviewer noted how long Colbert has “been attaching [his] mouth to the exhaust pipe of news,” the comedian quipped, “That sounds vaguely suicidal.”

    Colbert continued, “‘You’ve been running your car in the closed garage of media for 20 years, are you getting a little woozy?’ Yeah, I’m getting a little woozy. Listen, it’s possible that George Cheeks [at the time, co-CEO of Paramount and the president and CEO of CBS] saved my life. I’ll get a little oxygen back into my brain.”

    Jokes aside, Colbert made it clear he loved the gig. “I love what we do and I love the grind,” he said. “You can only do one of these shows, do the jokes every night, year after year for 20 years, if you give a damn at all about what you’re talking about. And I do. But there is a sense of relief that I might not have to put on the snorkel and get into the sewer every day.”

    News broke in July that The Late Show With Stephen Colbert is ending in May 2026. “It’s not just the end of our show, but it’s the end of The Late Show on CBS. I’m not being replaced,” Colbert said in a clip from a live taping. “This is all just going away. I do want to say that the folks at CBS have been great partners … And I’m grateful to the audience, you, who have joined us every night, in here, out there, and all around the world.”

    CBS noted in a statement at the time that the decision was purely “financial” and wasn’t “related in any way to the show’s performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount,” adding, “We are proud that Stephen called CBS home.”

    While speaking to GQ, Colbert insisted that he’s had a “great relationship” with the network since his version of The Late Show began in 2015.

    “It’s one of the reasons why this was so surprising and so shocking that there was no preamble to this,” he continued. “We do budgets and everything like that. We’ve done cuts and stuff like that. So that’s why it was surprising to me, as I said, but I meant what I said [on air] the next night after I found out, because I couldn’t sit on it. They’ve been great partners. They really have. They’ve been very supportive.”

    Being a celebrity guest on a talk show isn’t always smooth sailing— remember Dakota Johnson’s infamous on-air clapback to Ellen DeGeneres over a birthday party invite? Celebrity interviews are a risky — but crucial — element of any talk show, since an exclusive chat with an A-lister can draw huge ratings or generate endless social […]

    Colbert reiterated that he’s maintaining a “professional” perspective despite what the public might think about what happened behind the scenes. (Days before the cancellation news, Colbert called out Paramount, CBS’ parent company, for reaching a $16 million settlement with President Donald Trump.)

    “But my side of the street is clean and I have no interest in picking up a broom or adding to refuse on the other side of the street. Not my problem,” he explained. “So people can have their theories. I have my feelings about not doing the show anymore, but you’d have to show me why that’s a fruitful relationship for me to have with my network for the next nine months, for me to engage in that speculation.”

    Despite feeling relieved about disengaging from the headlines, Colbert said he’ll “miss the ability to go out there and make jokes” about what’s in the news. “I will miss every aspect of my job other than wearing makeup,” he teased.

    As for what’s next, Colbert doesn’t think he’ll leave show business behind for good — but he won’t be lost without late night.

    “I know who I am without this,” he told the outlet. “I didn’t do any of this until I was 41. I got the Colbert Report when I was 41. I was really old to get one of these jobs. And then by the time I got this gig, which I never planned on because I’m not a standup, I’m not from the background that usually gets one of these gigs. And I was 51 when I took it. That’s really old for somebody — it’s not really old, but you know what I mean. It’s late to take it. So that is only to say, I was married with all my children before I was Stephen Colbert, that anybody would know. And my identity is associated with that. And the family I grew up with and my faith.”

  • Mini BTS reunion at Runseokjin encore: Jimin, V and Jin face criticism over… | Bollywood Life

    [ad_1]

    BTS member Jin ended his RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR with a sold-out encore at Incheon’s Munhak Stadium on November 1, 2025, featuring a surprise reunion with bandmates Jimin and Taehyung, but nobody expected that the three of them would be criticised.

    BTS member Jin closed his two-day encore concerts of #Runseokjin tour amid a lot of laughter, tears and high emotions on November 1. After Jungkook and J-Hope on Day 1 (October 31), Jin gave another surprise to fans on Day 2 of his RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR_ENCORE concerts at Munhak Stadium in Incheon. This time, he arrived with V, aka Kim Taehyung and Jimin’s performance as the audience cheered. It was indeed a mini-BTS reunion for ARMYs who couldn’t get enough of the frolic and fun of the idols over the weekend. But what started as a sentimental moment between BTS members quickly turned into one of the group’s most criticised performances to date.

    Taehyung’s emotional encore

    While Jin’s song list left the fans wanting more, it was his performance on The Truth Untold with a piano and his strong vocals that impressed everyone. Taehyung performed his solo track Love Me Again live for the first time in nearly two years after completing his military service. He got emotional backstage about his return to performing.

    Jimin’s surprise

    As a gift for fans, Jin caught Jimin off guard in the audience and called him on stage to perform. “There was a handsome friend of mine holding the pole for me. Jimin, do you wanna sing a song?” Jin said as the camera zoomed in on Jimin’s expression on the big screen.
    For fans, “Jimin’s voice feels like Spring Days, soft, healing, and warm, like the first blossoms after a long winter,” as posted by an X user.

    Mini BTS reunion

    The trio collaborated on BTS hits, including Idol, My Universe, and Spring Day, showcasing their bond. But the most heartwarming moment was when V was in tears, as Jin stated, “He missed you (fans), so he was crying backstage.”

    Spring Day is being called a disaster performance

    Jin, Jimin, and V’s impromptu Spring Day stage during Jin’s encore concert in Seoul has now gone viral among Korean netizens after facing extreme criticism from international netizens. They have branded the performance as a disaster. Numerous Korean netizens and other online users harshly criticised the trio’s live singing abilities, with some calling it a live singing disaster and saying they sounded like they were yelling. V also faced specific criticism for his solo performance of Love Me Again at the same event, with some listeners alleging he relied heavily on a loud backing track and had issues with vocal control. Many fans defended the performance, emphasising it was a spontaneous, heartfelt moment and not a formal, polished stage.

    Netizens’ reaction to Spring Day live by Jin, Jimin and V

    Many netizens left very harsh comments and posts about the performance. One netizen posted on X, “The cola dude walking away to avoid singing and his member calling him over just for him to sing like a toad is so”

    Another person posted, “Giving credit where its due, JK, Jhope and Jin sounded good together. Spring Day was absolutely the wrong choice for this trio.”

    BTS fans came to defend them. One of them posted on X, “Jimin wasnt ready bec he didnt have his own mic, in-ears, & didnt rehearse with Jin or V, but he did NOT MESS up! Like his facecard & body-goals,his angelic, stable live vocals definitely delivered! mind you, it wasnt the 1st time he’s praised bec of his angelic voice”

    Another fan posted, “Mind you there is no backtrack at this concert so these are Taehyung’s live vocals. He is such a powerhouse of a vocalist”

    One fan posted, “I got goosebumps and chills. Did you guys see how he sang spring day without any music. So magnificent This guy can do a whole concert without music, without auto tune, without in-ears and what not. Only him and his beautiful voice”

    While the performance sparked debate online, many fans continue to celebrate the emotional reunion of Jin, Jimin, and V. Their heartfelt chemistry and genuine connection on stage reflected the spirit that made BTS a global phenomenon, reminding everyone that sometimes, sincerity shines brighter than perfection.

  • Josh Allen’s Touchdown Celebrated With Hailee Steinfeld’s ‘Love Myself’

    [ad_1]

    Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen had the support of wife Hailee Steinfeld after scoring a touchdown against the Kansas City Chiefs.

    After Allen’s play in the Sunday, November 2, game, the NFL celebrated by playing Steinfeld’s “Love Myself” in the background.

    “Whoever decided to play a Hailee Steinfeld during a Josh Allen TD replay commercial break sequence should get a raise,” one user wrote via X, alongside the clip. “Go Bills and FUKC.”

    Months before the NFL season began, Allen, 29, tied the knot with Steinfeld, 28, in California. For the May ceremony, Steinfeld rocked a custom white strapless Tamara Ralph gown, with opera gloves and a long white veil.

    Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen kept their romance quiet to start in May 2023 before announcing their engagement less than two years later. Allen was linked to Steinfeld just weeks after eagle-eyed fans noticed in April 2023 that his longtime girlfriend Brittany Williams unfollowed him on social media. Williams proceeded to wipe her Instagram clean of […]

    “Josh says we have to talk about my dress now because I ‘stunned’ him when I got to the altar,” Steinfeld wrote in her “Beau Society” newsletter in June. “It’s easily the most perfect gown I’ve ever put on my body. Tamara Ralph designed it custom for me. Her tailoring is exquisite. We were on the tightest timeline. Six weeks before the wedding, my mom and I flew to Paris straight from the Sinners premiere in London for the fitting. I really had to lean into the whole ‘trust the process’ thing and thank God for Rob, Mariel, Tamara and her team for pulling it all together in time.”

    The couple, who have been romantically linked since 2023, opted to have their nuptials be a phone-free occasion.

    “We had the amazing [wedding photographer] Jose Villa and his team with us from Thursday through Sunday to capture all the love. We had a no-phone wedding — we wanted everyone to come and be present,” Steinfeld wrote. “Looking back, it was one of the best decisions we made. But that meant Jose had his work cut out for him, capturing all the magic for us.”

    Elsewhere in the newsletter, Steinfeld gushed that the day was “perfect — the whole entire thing.” She added, “It’s been a whole 13 days of being married, and we’ll be staying on this high forever!”

    When Allen was asked in June about the recent events in his life, the NFL player noted that all of his achievements have “been big” before pointing to his milestone moment with Steinfeld.

    “None other than marrying my best friend,” he said during a press conference in a video obtained by TMZ. “She makes everything easier. I don’t really focus on the other stuff, that was the most important decision I’ll make in my life, and I made the right one.”

    Steinfeld, meanwhile, has been cheering Allen on throughout his career. In a 2024 issue of her newsletter, the Pitch Perfect actress gushed about watching him play.

    “Football season is back, which means a few things,” Steinfeld wrote at the time. “I get to watch my favorite person continue to make NFL history every week (go off 17) [and] we’re just a few weeks away from drastic temperature drops … where you’ll find me drinking hot chocolate bundled in vintage Bills gear.”
