Happy Presidents’ Day!

There’s only one former President on this list who has been ordered to pay the State of New York over $450 million for committing fraud in addition to $88 million for defaming a woman he raped.

Kelly Rowland pulled some real diva shit on The Today Show last week. She was set to fill-in for Jenna Bush Hager during the Hoda & Jenna segment on Friday, but reportedly left 10 minutes before filming because she didn’t like her dressing room. They were able to pull Rita Ora in at the last second to replace Rowland — which, good on you, Rita Ora — but Ms. Rowland, ma’am. I hope your P.R. people sit you down and give you a stern talking to, because you are not a big enough star to be pulling this kind of move.

The People’s Choice Awards happened this weekend. And it’s no big surprise that it was a huge night for Barbie. What might surprise you is the winner of Drama Movie Star of the Year.

The BAFTAs also happened.

George Santos is suing Jimmy Kimmel for tricking him into filming a Cameo, LOL. Good luck with that, Georgie.

The Kid Mero gave his side of why he and Desus Nice split up, but Desus Nice, he disagrees.

Lionel Richie was as surprised as anyone to learn that this is Katy Perry’s last season on American Idol.

Pedro Pascal is a psychopath:

Pedro Pascal shares his “pyscho” way of learning lines.

“You just use the first letter of each word and put them in these sort of columns & then it’s this tedious way of making yourself learn the line.”

Linda Hamilton joined season five of Stranger Things, and says that because she is in the show, she won’t be able to watch it.

I don’t know what the answer is, but it sure feels like it’s unethical to allow children to work in the business. And don’t get me started on the reality show side of things.

This is a spoiler for last week’s Ghosts premiere: but the show’s creators explain why that ghost was “sucked off.”

The Real Housewives of Atlanta‘s Porsha Williams’ husband sounds … problematic.

Bo Duke — who is from New York — is out there running his mouth again, suggesting that Beyoncé WHO IS FROM HOUSTON, TEXAS, shouldn’t be making country music. I think we all know what he really is getting at, white?

Apple TV+’s Foundation has resolved its budget issues and will begin production next month. (Or so they say.)

This is interesting: The (or at least one of the) reason Superman & Lois was canceled at The CW was not because The CW was removing all their superhero shows (although they were), but because Warner Bros. Discovery is planning a 2025 Superman movie, and they didn’t want a different, competing Superman out in the marketplace.

No one was more surprised by Olivia Jerome’s death on General Hospital than Olivia Jerome herself. (Of course, we haven’t seen a body so …)
