Sheryl Crow ‘Mad at a Lot of People’ Over Michael Jackson Abuse Allegations



Sheryl Crow is speaking out about the molestation allegations brought against late singer Michael Jackson in the documentary Leaving Neverland.

Crow performed with MJ during the years when James Safechuck who appeared in Leaving Neverland was also traveling with MJ.

“[Safechuck] was a great kid and the whole time he was with us — which was the better half of an 18-month tour — I always wondered: ‘What in the world are his parents doing?’, you know?” Crow said. When asked if she guessed what Jackson was doing to Safechuck, Crow said that she thought “there were a lot of exceptions made” because of Jackson’s status at the time. “He didn’t intentionally project it, but it was part of his aura — this almost being untouchable and almost alien-like [figure],” she said, “And yeah, I mean, I’m sad, and I’m mad at a lot of people. I feel like there was just a huge network of people that allowed all that to go on. It’s just tragic.”

Khalid says he plans to perform a concert to benefit El Paso victims





Kahlid said his mind and heart have been heavy since hearing about the mass shooting in his hometown and he wants to help the city heal.

"Hearing/seeing an act of terrorism happen so close to home, my family and my friends has been unbelievable and shocking," Khalid tweeted on Monday, two days after a gunman killed at least 21 people and injured dozens more at an El Paso Walmart.

The benefit concert will happen later this month.

Oscar Mayer joins the war on ice cream with its Ice Dog Sandwich



Despite 72% of voters voting “No” to this on the company’s Twitter poll, they’re still going to go forward with this nonsense.

Brands are at it again and the war on destroying ice cream as we know it continues. One day after French’s announced their limited edition “Mustard Ice Cream,” Oscar Mayer decided to double down with their very own “Ice Dog Sandwich.”

“Who eats just mustard @Frenchs? Condiments were made for Oscar Mayer hot dogs,” tweeted the American meat and cold cut brand. “Say hello to the Oscar Mayer Ice Dog Sandwich – hot dog flavored ice cream, made with our better hot dogs, sandwiched with spicy mustard.”

Oscar Mayer says its “Ice Dog Sandwich” will be available in New York City the week of August 12th for free through its Wienermobile. If you aren’t in NYC and don’t love yourself, you can also DM the company a message on Twitter and you might be able to try it through a limited giveaway.

Angelina Jolie Poses With Her Two Rescue Dogs

aj ontd 5.jpg

Angelina Jolie is starting the PR tour for Maleficent 2, and she wrote an essay for Elle magazine about maleficent women.

She also poses with her two rescue dogs, a pitbull mix and a rottweiler that her oldest sons chose as puppies.

An excerpt from her essay:

"Women could be accused of witchcraft for having an independent sex life, for speaking their mind on politics or religion, or for dressing differently. Had I lived in earlier times, I could have been burnt at the stake many times over for simply being myself. The accusation of witchcraft has been used to control and silence women in almost all societies and in every century."

Neil deGrasse Tyson Apologizes for Viral Tweet About Mass Shootings

Following the terrible mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton over the weekend, Neil deGrasse Tyson tweeted this:




Following the backlash, he has posted an apology on his Facebook.

Part of his "apology":

“My intent was to offer objectively true information that might help shape conversations and reactions to preventable ways we die. Where I miscalculated was that I genuinely believed the Tweet would be helpful to anyone trying to save lives in America. What I learned from the range of reactions is that for many people, some information –-my Tweet in particular — can be true but unhelpful, especially at a time when many people are either still in shock, or trying to heal – or both.

so, Andy Serkis is directing "Venom 2"

The sequel to Sony's second best superhero movie of 2018 has found a director in the Mo-Cap legend Andy Serkis.

This is Serkis' third directorial effort, after the 2017 drama Breathe and last year's non-Disney take on the Rudyard Kipling stories, Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle, which no one cared about.

He will be reunited with Woody Harrelson (Remember the stinger at the end of "Venom"? "There's gonna be.....Carnage"), they worked together in "War For The Planet of The Apes".

Lindsay Lohan reportedly getting close with the crown prince of Saudi Arabia



Lindsay Lohan and Mohammad bin Salman, the powerful crown prince of Saudi Arabia, have reportedly formed an unlikely friendship.

Pals of the actress say "they’ve seen text exchanges between the pair" and are boasting about what they claim is a new friendship. Page Six is also claiming that the billionaire "been flying her around in his jets and showering her with presents".

Lohan's rep says the pair only met once at a Formula One Grand Prix race, but sources within her circle say they definitely know each other.

MbS has faced accusations of reportedly calling for the murder of Washington Post journalist Khashoggi last October, while others describe him as a modernizing force in Saudi Arabia pushing for women’s rights.

"Pitch" Revival Officially Dead




  • Executive producers including Dan Fogelman were told by 20th TV execs to begin assembling cast- including stars Kylie Bunbury and Mark-Paul Gosselaar- and a writer's room for a season two of the sports drama series in late April. This was after Disney's Fox acquisition and after Fogelman renewed his overall deal with 20th TV.

  • 20th TV dangled the revival- a passion project of Fogelman- in order to get Fogelman to resign, then told him the revival was a no-go a week later, as the Pitch team began to plot out the second season. Sources stress no deals were made and no contracts were signed.

  • While sources say that all involved remain hopeful that there will be some sort of proper closure for the show, reps for 20th TV declined comment.

Tyrese is still mad, posts and deletes Instagram comments about Hobbs and Shaw box office

https://instagram.com/p/B0yaADkB5JP


Context: Back in 2017, it was announced there would be a Fast and Furious spinoff featuring Dwayne Johnson's character Hobbs. As a result, the 9th Fast and Furious film would be pushed back. Well, Tyrese was pissed. He accused Johnson of trying to break up the "Fast Family" and messing with his paycheck. Tyrese posted rants on Instagram and made an ass of himself. For the most part, Dwayne ignored it.

Most people have forgotten about the "feud" but not Tyrese. He posted and deleted a picture of an article criticizing Hobbs and Shaw's box office. Part of what he said:

"I have to show my respects for one thing. He tried...Folks called me a hater. And attacked me for speaking out.

Breaking up the family clearly doesn’t have the value that one would assume it does. You know what maybe just maybe The Rock and the crew will come dance with us again for #Fast10. We can all hug it out and get back to giving the true fans who have supported this franchise for 20 years WHAT they want. Not hating, I’m just pointing out the facts.”

August's Most Anticipated New Books



The Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware



Release date: August 6

About: From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of In a Dark, Dark Wood, The Woman in Cabin 10, The Lying Game, and The Death of Mrs. Westaway comes Ruth Ware’s highly anticipated fifth novel.

When she stumbles across the ad, she’s looking for something else completely. But it seems like too good an opportunity to miss—a live-in nannying post, with a staggeringly generous salary. And when Rowan Caine arrives at Heatherbrae House, she is smitten—by the luxurious “smart” home fitted out with all modern conveniences, by the beautiful Scottish Highlands, and by this picture-perfect family.

What she doesn’t know is that she’s stepping into a nightmare—one that will end with a child dead and herself in prison awaiting trial for murder.

Writing to her lawyer from prison, she struggles to explain the unravelling events that led to her incarceration. It wasn’t just the constant surveillance from the cameras installed around the house, or the malfunctioning technology that woke the household with booming music, or turned the lights off at the worst possible time. It wasn’t just the girls, who turned out to be a far cry from the immaculately behaved model children she met at her interview. It wasn’t even the way she was left alone for weeks at a time, with no adults around apart from the enigmatic handyman, Jack Grant.

It was everything.

She knows she’s made mistakes. She admits that she lied to obtain the post, and that her behavior toward the children wasn’t always ideal. She’s not innocent, by any means. But, she maintains, she’s not guilty—at least not of murder. Which means someone else is.

Full of spellbinding menace and told in Ruth Ware’s signature suspenseful style, The Turn of the Key is an unputdownable thriller from the Agatha Christie of our time.
