In yesterday’s post, I was incorrect when I wrote that Chris Rock “did stand-up in front of a mostly white audience, and the positive response for the special has mostly come from the conservative, right-wing media.” The actual audience in the Baltimore theater – where Chris Rock filmed his Netflix special – was mostly Black. The audience for the Netflix special was mostly white. The positive reactions for the special mostly came from white people. It’s also worth noting that Jada Pinkett Smith is from Baltimore, and that Chris never said Jada’s name in his routine, but he did call Jada AND Will Smith a “bitch” several times. Rock also did a big segment on how the Duchess of Sussex was wrong to go on Oprah and claim that the Windsors are racist because…in Rock’s words, everyone knows that the Windsors have always been racist. A lot of people were wildly offended by Rock’s doubling-down on attacking Black women, but according to Rock’s people, he’s very pleased with the reaction:

Chris Rock is basking in the wake of his live comedy show. Two days after the comedian, 58, skewered Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith during Chris Rock: Selective Outrage, an industry source tells PEOPLE that he “is riding high from the Netflix special.”

“He said what he needed to say and doesn’t give a s— about the reaction either way. He isn’t worried,” the insider adds. A year after the infamous incident at the 94th Academy Awards where Will, 54, struck Rock in the face onstage after the latter made a joke about Jada, 51, Rock addressed the assault in his live special on Saturday night, asserting he “is not a victim.”

Many of Rock’s fans and friends have come to his defense amid some online backlash over the jokes. The source tells PEOPLE that “people have been waiting for [Rock’s] reaction for a year,” adding, “For the most part, I think it was well received. People don’t expect sugarcoating from Chris Rock.”

[From People]

Personally, after we watched Will Smith publicly eat sh-t for months and really use that time to reflect and figure out why he did what he did, I kind of hoped that Rock would do something similar in a smaller way – like, perhaps acknowledge that he gets off on attacking Black women. Perhaps reflect on the ways he needs to change to make funnier, more socially relevant comedy. It could have been the moment when Will Smith slapped some sense into him. Instead, Rock seems bitter, nasty and hellbent on degrading Black people even more. Meanwhile, Will Smith is still trying to make amends:

Will Smith is still intent on repairing his relationship with Chris Rock, a source tells PEOPLE. A year after the infamous incident at the 94th Academy Awards where Smith struck Rock onstage, Rock addressed the assault in his live Netflix comedy special Chris Rock: Selective Outrage on Saturday, asserting he “is not a victim.”

A source tells PEOPLE that Smith, 54, has “felt terrible for so long” about smacking Rock at the Oscars. “He’s tried unsuccessfully to make amends in the best way he could with Chris,” adds the source. “But beyond that, family is important to him and [Smith] leaned on them” in the aftermath of the incident, the source says. “It all has helped him look inside and mature. He is better but still remorseful.”

“Will listened to those who tried to help him and feels that he has become a better person,” the source continues.

[From People]

I hope he has matured but I also hope he simply moves on. At this point, he doesn’t owe Chris Rock anything. Will doesn’t owe the Academy anything either – they lied about him, overreacted and treated the slap like it was the worst thing that ever happened, like they didn’t give Roman Polanski a f–king Oscar.

Will Smith slaps you in front of 16 million people, and after a year of hyping up your comedy special, all you can come up with is calling him a bitch over and over…

King Charles has not left the UK since becoming king. He has not traveled to any of the commonwealth nations, he did not travel to the funeral of King Constantine of Greece, and he has not visited any of the countries who will likely become republics under his watch. Last week, there was finally an announcement about Charles’s first overseas trip – he’ll be going to France and Germany at the end of this month. His mother believed in strengthening Commonwealth ties above strengthening ties to European/NATO allies. Charles apparently feels differently, or maybe Brexit really has f–ked up everything and Chaz is being sent to do some soft-diplomacy. Lucky France and Germany.

King Charles will become the first British monarch to address the French senate during next month’s state visit to France and Germany. He will also be the first British sovereign to address German politicians from the Bundestag, reflecting what is believed to be the wish of the host countries to mark the historic trip of the new head of state.

Charles and Camilla will travel to Paris and then continue onwards to Berlin during a six-day tour, which begins on March 26.

Chris Fitzgerald, the King’s deputy private secretary, said the visit was at the request of the British Government following invitations from the French and German presidents. Commenting on the trip, he added: “The visit will celebrate the UK’s relationship with France and Germany, marking our shared histories, culture and values. It is also a chance to look forwards and show the many ways our countries are working in partnership, whether that be to tackle climate change, respond to the conflict in Ukraine, seize trade and investment opportunities or share the best of our arts and culture.”

“As well as speaking to the strength of the United Kingdom’s bilateral relationships with France and Germany, Their Majesties’ visit will include engagements highlighting the importance of sustainability and community – key themes which have been embraced by citizens of all our countries. There will also be opportunities to reflect on the sacrifices and challenges of our shared past, out of which has come an enduring legacy of cooperation and reconciliation.”

[From The Telegraph]

I googled it and apparently Charles is fluent in French but not so much in German. QEII reportedly had some “schoolgirl French” language skills, but she apparently refused to speak German, lest she remind people of her extensive German ancestry. Prince Philip also spoke German quite well (and his sisters were married to Nazis). I would assume that Charles’s public addresses in France will probably be half in French, half in English? I really don’t know. I assume he’ll speak English while in Germany. Anyway, I’m curious to see the reception Charles and Camilla get on their first foreign trip as monarchs. The French people reportedly had great respect for QEII – will that carry over to Charles? Doubtful, although I do imagine that President Macron will lay out the red carpet for Charles.

A post shared by Natasha Lyonne (@nlyonne)

A week ago Monday, Natasha Lyonne quit smoking. A week ago, Tuesday, she regretted her decision. I feel ya, Natasha. This is, in fact, huge. Try to think of the last time you’ve seen a shot of Natasha Lyonne without a cigarette in her hands. Watching Poker Face, which I know is her homage to Columbo who always had a cigarette, I still wonder how they get away with so much smoking. And in Russian Doll the cigarettes were practically another character. But she’s decided to break the habit and she’s tweeting about how hard that is. Fortunately, her famous buddies have her back. Folks like former co-star Lily Tomlin are rooting for Natasha to stick it out.

Natasha Lyonne has some big names in her corner.

As the Golden Globe nominee, 43, documents her journey to quit smoking on social media, she’s been met with some words of encouragement from the likes of Melissa Etheridge and Lily Tomlin.

“Hey @nlyonne I see you are quitting smoking. As a 19-year cancer thriver, I want to give you all of the encouragement I can,” wrote Etheridge, 61, on Twitter. “Your show #PokerFace freaking rocks!! Just like #RussianDoll you are amazing! You got this!! It’s so cool!!”

Lyonne responded: “Woowowow!! Thank you!! So cool!!”

The Poker Face star previously shared a throwback selfie with a cigarette in her mouth, writing: “I miss smoking a lot already.”

She added on Twitter, “Not sold and my phone keeps making memory videos that include smoking like some dark temptress. I’m day 3 no smoking don’t @ me.”

“Chin up, darling,” replied Tomlin, 83, to which Lyonne wrote: “Wow! If getting encouragement from you is a perk of not smoking – I’ll take it!”

“Then we will continue our encouragement. The world needs your artistry and vision, so choose wisely for yourself,” Tomlin added. They previously starred together in 1998’s Krippendorf’s Tribe.

[From People]

OMG quitting smoking is so hard. I feel like I relived it with Jonah Hill and now I feel like I’m going through it with Natasha. I share her wish for someone would invent a healthy cigarette. I mean, I guess I’m happy I don’t have to inject fillers to combat @$$hole mouth after quitting 20 years ago, but dark temptress indeed.

However, dwelling on how much I’d love a cigarette (yes, even after all this time) is not going to help anyone, so let’s talk about Natasha’s cheerleading team. This is the right way to use social media (one of the right ways, there are many, of course.) I love Lily et al coming out for Natasha to get her over the hump. Sometimes just a little fist bump will get you through that moment. Of course, a fist bump from Lily Tomlin could get me through just about anything. I like that Natasha is documenting her quitting. It will matter to someone else also trying to quit. Like Jonah, admitting how hard it is will let others know they aren’t alone in their struggle. And maybe seeing people support her will help them break their habits as well.

And while I rarely agree with Melissa Etheredge, I do here. Poker Face does, in fact, freaking rock.

In AppleTV’s The Me You Can’t See, Prince Harry highlighted the use of psychedelics in therapy. The idea and science behind using LSD, ayahuasca or other psychedelics is that those drugs can help break down psychological walls and help people have mental and emotional breakthroughs which unmedicated talk therapy might not be able to achieve. I believe it, especially if you’re taking those drugs within a therapeutic or spiritual setting – many people have spoken about how the drugs helped rewire their brain in a positive way, and helped them achieve some kind of breakthrough. Harry also wrote about his drug use in Spare, although the Netflix series kind of glossed over Harry’s recreational/therapeutic marijuana usage. Anyway, in his weekend talk with Dr. Gabor Mate, Harry got even more specific about drug use and the benefits of psychedelics.

The Duke of Sussex has said his use of some drugs “really” helped him mentally, as a trauma expert diagnosed him with attention deficit disorder (ADD). In his controversial memoir Spare, Harry admitted to regular drug-taking and describes how in 2015, while living in Nottingham Cottage in the grounds of Kensington Palace, he smoked marijuana.

On Saturday, he spoke to Dr Gabor Mate, author of The Myth Of Normal: Trauma, Illness & Healing In A Toxic Culture, in a live interview, with topics including his use of cocaine, marijuana and alcohol.

Harry said “(Cocaine) didn’t do anything for me, it was more a social thing and gave me a sense of belonging for sure, I think it probably also made me feel different to the way I was feeling, which was kind of the point. Marijuana is different, that actually really did help me.”

The duke also told of using psychedelics such as ayahuasca. He went on: “It was the cleaning of the windscreen, cleaning of the windshield, the removal of life’s filters just as much as on Instagram, these layers of filters. It removed it all for me and brought me a sense of relaxation, release, comfort, a lightness that I managed to hold on to for a period of time. I started doing it recreationally and then started to realise how good it was for me, I would say it is one of the fundamental parts of my life that changed me and helped me deal with the traumas and pains of the past.”

[From Yahoo]

To me, this reads as old news, considering Harry has been open about most of this since The Me You Can’t See and Spare. But of course, everything Harry does makes news, so following the talk with Dr. Mate, the British papers are launching into a 1980s-style anti-drug campaign centered on willfully misconstruing Harry’s words. They’re acting like Harry is going into elementary schools and passing out cocaine. He is not. He has always maintained that, specifically for psychedelics, he would like to see them used in controlled medical and therapeutic settings. As for marijuana… lol, after I read Spare, I was like “man, he must love it in California, with all of those pot dispensaries.”

Prince Andrew was sort of the first royal (in recent royal history) to make his permanent home in Windsor. He moved into Royal Lodge and based himself there in 2002-03, shortly after the Queen Mum died. He also kept an apartment in Buckingham Palace, obviously. Then in 2018, QEII “gave” Frogmore Cottage to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex after they turned down more “lavish” properties, likely including some palace apartments in London. They too wanted to have a family home with a yard and space for their kids. Basically, as soon as the Sussexes got Frogmore Cottage, Prince William and Kate were incandescent with jealousy. They demanded a place in Windsor too, and William had his eye on Frogmore Cottage the second he managed to exile the Sussexes. The eviction of the Sussexes from Frogmore has been a long time coming, and it’s been long plotted by William, Kate and Charles as well. Well, funny story – even though the Sussexes based themselves in Windsor long before Peg and Buttons, now the Waleses want to emphasize that they do NOT want the Sussexes as neighbors.

Prince William and Kate Middleton will be “on board” with King Charles’ decision to evict Harry and Meghan from Frogmore Cottage, a royal expert claimed. Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond, speaking exclusively to OK!, said the Prince and Princess of Wales would ‘absolutely support’ the eviction as they ‘probably do not want the Sussexes as neighbours’.

This week it emerged the King has asked Prince Harry, 38, and Meghan Markle, 41, to vacate Frogmore Cottage – the home they were gifted by the late Queen after they tied the knot in 2018. It was reported that the home will instead be offered to Prince Andrew, 63, after it was revealed the disgraced Duke of York is set to be moved from Royal Lodge in Windsor Park, where he has lived since 2003 alongside ex-wife Sarah Ferguson.

According to reports, the King wants the Duke and Duchess of Sussex out of Frogmore Cottage before his Coronation in May.

When asked about the reaction of Prince William, 40, and Princess Kate, 41, to the eviction, Ms Bond replied: “They will be absolutely supportive of Charles’ decision. They probably don’t want Harry and Meghan as their near neighbours. I think they’d probably have Andrew. They’ll be completely on board with this and support Charles.

[From OK! Magazine]

“We’d rather have a rapist human trafficker as a neighbor than a Black woman and her mixed-race children!” – William and Kate. Nevermind the fact that – once again – Peg and Buttons moved to Windsor after the Sussexes, and they did so because of their disturbed need to copy everything the Sussexes do. It’s Peak Will and Kate to arrive in Windsor, declare it theirs and announce that Harry and Meghan are evicted because they don’t want the Sussexes as neighbors.

While Jada Pinkett Smith isn’t everybody’s cup of tea, over the years, I’ve grown to admire her. She’s been on the right side of history many times, and so much of the angst and anger directed at her is because she married Mr. Popularity, Will Smith. On the Chris Rock issue, Jada is unequivocally the victim. She never did anything to Rock, and all he’s done is harass her and make her the butt of his jokes for decades. Rock has been obsessed with her for so long, and he felt empowered to stand on stage at the Oscars and make fun of her alopecia on a night where she was simply there to support her husband, who was nominated. Will Smith was the one who slapped Rock – all Jada did was stay in her seat and roll her eyes in disgust as Rock once again had her name in his mouth. Well, Jada’s friends are talking to People Mag in the wake of Rock’s horrid Netflix special, and I’m glad her side is saying all of this:

Jada Pinkett Smith is not involved in the ongoing tension between her husband Will Smith and comedian Chris Rock, a source close to the actress tells PEOPLE. A year after the infamous incident at the 94th Academy Awards where Smith struck Rock onstage, Rock addressed the assault in his live Netflix comedy special Chris Rock: Selective Outrage on Saturday, peppering it with scathing jokes about the Smiths and their marriage.

“Jada has had no part in all of this other than being heckled,” the source says. “Chris is obsessed with her and that’s been going on for almost 30 years. Look where he chose to film his Netflix special. Her hometown [of Baltimore]. Obsessed. Back in 2016 she helped start a movement with the Academy Awards by questioning why there are so few Black members, and Chris took it to this?” the source adds.

In 2016, Jada showed her support for Black actors as part of the “#OscarsSoWhite” movement. Will, 54, was shut out of the Best Actor race that year for his performance in Concussion. During his stand-up special, Rock quipped: “Years ago, his wife said I should quit the Oscars. I shouldn’t host ’cause her man didn’t get nominated for Concussion. And then he gives me a f–––ing concussion.”

The source counters: “She never asked Chris to not host the Oscars ever. She publicly said in a Facebook post at the time Chris would be a great Oscars host and is perfect for the job.”

In his special, Rock claimed that Jada deserved to be made fun of, saying that she was the one to start things and that he was simply reacting.

“I did some jokes about her. Who gives a f—? That’s how it is: She starts it, I finish it,” Rock said. “That’s what the f— happened. Nobody’s pickin’ on this bitch. She started this s—. Nobody was pickin’ on her.”

The source tells PEOPLE they “were shocked at how many times Chris used the word bitch in referring to Jada.”

Despite Rock’s targeting of Jada, she is looking ahead, the source adds.

“Right now Jada is focused on her book that will come out this year,” the source concluded.

[From People]

Yeah… I believe Jada’s side. She didn’t do anything to Chris Rock. I would argue that, from the way he’s obsessively sh-t talked her, she probably rejected him at one point, back in the 1990s. That’s the incel energy Rock has brought to Jada’s doorstep for decades – that of a man who got rejected and couldn’t handle it, so he had to smear the woman repeatedly. I believe Jada on the Oscar-hosting thing too – she wasn’t mad about Rock hosting the Oscars that year, her point was about Black actors and creators needing to be nominated. And she was right. Rock has created this whole delusion where Jada is constantly belittling him or starting sh-t with him, where all she’s ever done is exist and be married to Will and be an activist and an outspoken Black woman. (And yes, the Baltimore thing is f–king crazy.)

It’s been a while since anyone gossiped about Tyga, right? It feels like a blast from the past to talk about him at all, even though he never really went away and he’s only 33 years old. Tyga is best known as the ex of both Blac Chyna (they have son Cairo together) and Kylie Jenner. Back in the day, Tyga was Kylie’s first boyfriend, and they had a strained on-and-off relationship for years, then she dumped him and immediately started up with Travis Scott. Well, Tyga is in the news this week because it looks like he has a new girlfriend: Avril Lavigne, fresh from her broken engagement. She dumped Mod Sun several weeks ago (and didn’t tell him) and she’s already back in the dating pool.

Avril and Tyga have been at Paris Fashion Week in recent days, and last night, they were seen kissing at the Mugler x Hunter Schafer party. They also sat next to each other at a few runway shows, and they were seen looking quite cozy at the Mugler show. So… this is happening? As I said, Tyga is 33, and Avril is 38 (going on 18). Sometimes, these celebrity couplings have the feel of names pulled out of a hat. But… whatever, technically they’re both single. This reads as thirsty more than anything else – like, Avril wants some attention, and Tyga does too, maybe.

When you think about all the franchises and roles associated with Keanu Reeves, you’d think he’d be perfectly content with his filmography. Not only does he have The Matrix and the John Wick series under his belt, he’s also beloved for Bill & Ted, tackled Shakespeare (looking hella good doing so, I might add) and I will go to my grave singing his (and everyone else’s) praises for Parenthood. But during a recent Ask Me Anything on Reddit, Keanu revealed the one role that got away and it surprised me. When he was asked if he had any regrets about his career or roles he’d turned down, Keanu said no. But he added that he while he had no regrets, he did always want to play Wolverine, the stout Canadian X-Man brought to life by Hugh Jackman.

During a recent AMA on Reddit, Keanu Reeves opened up about any regrets in his career.

More specifically, the 58-year-old John Wick star was asked if he regretted turning down any of the roles in his past.

While he said no, he did reveal a dream role playing a classic comic book hero that he has not yet been able to book.

“I did always want to play Wolverine,” Keanu told a curious fan on Reddit.

[From Just Jared]

Aw, this breaks my heart a little. Because Keanu was seriously considered for Wolverine before Hugh was even suggested for the role. Several people were put forward as possible Wolverines. But only a few were favored by the studio heads. Among them were Russell Crow, Aaron Eckhart, Viggo Mortensen and Keanu. Keanu was fresh off The Matrix and quite hot. But it ultimately worked against him, because they worried comic book fans wouldn’t be able to see past him as Neo. The role went to Doughary Scott, who had to drop out, and the rest is history… or Hughstory *snerk* Now, I’m not saying I think Keanu should have been Wolverine, just that I feel bad he wanted the role that much and didn’t get it. And it is possible that had he gotten Logan, he would not have gotten John Wick. I love Keanu in John Wick so in my book, this worked out the way it should. Not to mention because it gave us the Hugh/Ryan Reynolds bromance as well. But I think in light of this, Ryan can find a role for his fellow Canadian in the next Deadpool alongside Wolverine. That would certainly be one pretty film.

It’s really hard to stomach the fact that this spring will bring us the end of two wildly popular TV series, Succession and Ted Lasso. The two shows are premiering their final seasons this month, with Succession’s ten-episode fourth season and Lasso’s twelve-episode third season. It’s just so sad because… well, there are so many stories left to tell within these worlds! I love the Ted Lasso universe, it’s so wholesome and nice. But Jason Sudeikis – the creator/star – tells Deadline that the third season is 100% the final season of Lasso, although he leaves room for a possible spinoff:

Jason Sudeikis is not ready to say his Apple TV hit Ted Lasso is ending after season 3, but he does suggest that the upcoming episodes seem to wrap up his Emmy-winning comedy quite nicely.

“I mean, there’s always Cameo, right?” Sudeikis tells Deadline how he could return as Ted one day, via the website that lets you request personalized videos from your favorite actors. “This is the end of this story that we wanted to tell, that we were hoping to tell, that we loved to tell. The fact that folks will want more and are curious beyond more than what they don’t even know yet—that being Season 3—it’s flattering. Maybe by May 31, once all 12 episodes of the season [have been released], they’re like, ‘Man, you know what, we get it, we’re fine. We don’t need anymore, we got it.’ But until that time comes, I will appreciate the curiosity beyond what we’ve come up with so far.”

There have been talks as to whether the comedy could be spun off into a new iteration. (We vote for The World According to Keeley Jones). Sudeikis, who developed Ted Lasso with Bill Lawrence, Brendan Hunt, and Joe Kelly, seems open to the idea.

“Yeah, I think that we’ve set the table for all sorts of folks…to get to watch the further telling of these stories,” he said. “Again, I can’t help but take the question as flattery for what all of us that were working on the show has tried to do. It’s really kind of folks to even consider that because you never know what’s gonna happen when you make things. The fact that people want more, even if it’s a different avenue is lovely.”

[From Deadline]

Considering the popularity of Roy Kent and Keeley Jones, I do think they would be the natural spinoff characters. Brett Goldstein – who plays Roy Kent – is a writer on Lasso too, so it would feel like the next step for Goldstein to just shift the story more towards “what does Roy Kent do after Ted Lasso goes back to America?” I mean, I’m assuming that’s how the story ends? And Goldstein has also spoken at length about how much he loves Roy Kent and wants to play him forever.

The full-length trailer for the third season was released last week. Lots of Nate!

Spoilers for You season two
Jenna Ortega is basically a Gen Z (scream) queen. Her role as Wednesday Adams in Netflix’s Wednesday is probably her biggest to date and she’s kind of everywhere. But before she was Wednesday and in Scream, she was in You season two. Jenna’s character Ellie definitely has a grudge against Penn Badgley’s Joe. And though season four is all about Joe’s misdeeds (murders) coming back to haunt him, Jenna won’t be returning, much to her dismay and ours. Her filming schedule for Wednesday wouldn’t allow for an appearance.

Wednesday star Jenna Ortega has spoken on missing out on You season 4, admitting she was “devastated”.

The actress has portrayed Ellie Alves on the hit psychological drama, and showrunner Sera Gamble did recently reveal that they tried to get her back for the recent fourth season – though filming unfortunately clashed with her Wednesday schedule.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight about missing out on the new episodes, Ortega said: “I was devastated. Easily one of my favourite sets that I’ve ever, ever been on.

“I was so devastated. I miss Ellie, and I’ve been wanting to go back to Ellie for a long time, but I was in Romania shooting Wednesday,” she continued.

“I couldn’t travel back and forth with the pandemic and everything like that, and when you’re committed to a show there’s just no way that it could’ve worked out.”

Ortega added: “But that one, that bummed me out. I tried.”

Gamble previously told IndieWire of You season 4: “We wanted to bring Ellie back and we heard: ‘Oh, Jenna is doing some show’.”

She went on to tease a possible return in the future, however, adding: “It’s been just such a pleasure to see Jenna this year. We have ideas for Ellie if her schedule allows her to visit us again.”

[From Digital Spy]

What Jenna says about her character and the set is nice. Jenna is only 20 now so she was probably around 15-16 when they filmed season two. From what I’ve read about the co-creators and Penn Badgley, who is also a producer, they seem like conscientious people so I’m not surprised it was a good set for a kid despite the show’s subject matter. And she wasn’t the star so her schedule was probably much more comfortable than her schedule on Wednesday, which involved 12- to 14-hour days and then lessons after. Also, Ellie was a pretty great character. Even though Joe felt he had to save her, she actually chafed against his interference instead of being pitifully grateful like Paco. And as Ellie said, Joe did, in fact, ruin her life. And he seemed to feel more guilt about that than multiple actual murders, so she would be a great character to have reappear and get revenge. Hopefully they can get Jenna for season five, which will likely be the last. The second half of the fourth season drops on Thursday, so I know what I’m doing this weekend.
