Jodie Comer to Play Josephine in Ridley Scott’s Napoleon Bonaparte Film 'Kitbag'


- Sources close to Deadline says that Jodie Comer (27) "is Scott’s choice to play Napoleon Bonaparte’s beloved Josephine in Apple Studios’ upcoming epic Kitbag". Joaquin Phoenix (46) will play Napoleon Bonaparte.

- "Sources tell Deadline that even though Comer’s star had been on the rise following her Emmy-winning work on Killing Eve, Scott had no idea who she was when he set her as the female lead opposite Matt Damon, Adam Driver and Ben Affleck in The Last Duel. Insiders say Scott was blown away by her work during production of the film, which wrapped and the end of last year."

- Kitbag "is an original and personal look at Napoleon’s origins and his swift, ruthless climb to emperor, viewed through the prism of his addictive and often volatile relationship with his wife and one true love. While the intention of the film is to capture Napoleon’s famous battles, ambition and strategic mind, the love story he had with Josephine is just as important to the origins and the way the great military leader was."

It's WAR! Meghan and Harry Blame Buckingham Palace for a "Smear Campaign" Article

gettyimages-943178250-1614725045

The Times reported today that it was approached by royal palace aides who claim one of the duchess's former advisors filed a bullying complaint against her while she was at Kensington Palace.

Jason Knauf, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s communications secretary at the time, submitted a formal complaint about the claims in October 2018 in an apparent bid to protect his staff.

In his email, Mr Knauf said: “I am very concerned that the Duchess was able to bully two PAs out of the household in the past year. The treatment of X was totally unacceptable.”

The newspaper claims it has been told by a source that Prince Harry pleaded with his communications secretary not to send the complaint.

A spokesperson for the Sussexes denied the claim in the British newspaper, saying it was "based on misleading and harmful misinformation."

The couple's lawyers also said The Times was being used "by Buckingham Palace to peddle a wholly false narrative" before their interview with Oprah.

Olivia Rodrigo Has Her Very Own "I Don't Know Her" Moment

When Olivia Rodrigo released her single "drivers license" she had no idea it would spend 7 weeks at #1 on the Billboard Top 100 list.

In a recent interview with RADIO.com the High School Musical: The Musical Series star reveals that the song "affects everyone, regardless of age or gender."



Olivia talks about the meaning of her song, the letter that Taylor Swift sent her and reveals she has a crush on Saturday Night Live star Pete Davidson (uh oh!).

When asked if she would write a response song to Sabrina Carpenter's (the other girl from her song) "Skin", Olivia says "I actually don't know her at all."

"We met once or twice in passing but I've never had a conversation with her, so I don't think I could write a song, um that was meaningful or emotional about someone I don't know."

She then kindly adds "But I think artists should be able to write about whatever they want to write about."

The Biggest Burning Questions Ahead of Friday's WandaVision Finale

SPOILER ALERT: If you haven't seen Episode 8 "Previously On" of WandaVision please carry on scrolling!

After eight episodes, six distinct television eras, and apparently two rival Visions, Marvel Studios’ “WandaVision” first — and possibly only — season is coming to a close this Friday on Disney Plus.

We still have so many questions that this twist-strewn superhero TV show has yet to answer. With just one episode left — and so much to settle in the saga of how Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) grieved the loss of Vision (Paul Bettany) by creating a sitcom reality in the sleepy New Jersey city of Westview — let’s look at the biggest dangling plot strands audiences are eager to see resolved.

The way the show has gone so far, I'm confident enough will be explained and the ending will be incredible. I can't wait to see Wanda emerge into the Scarlet Witch fully!!

ONTD Original: The philandering men of Bollywood (Part 2)



Following up part 1, OP decided to make a Part 2 original to bring the international gossip and flavor to ONTD lol. But seriously, OP just did this for completionist reasons. PART 1 is overall much more interesting and juicier (well at least in OP's opinion). Anyways, there are many many posts that could be made because just like Hollywood, all these rich people can't keep it in their pants.

Part 2 here will cover 2 decently well known scandals and a couple that aren't as well known.

Will Smith says he’s never met a racist person who is also smart



Will Smith is speaking candidly about the racism he’s experienced.

“I’ve been called [N-word] to my face probably five or six times. And fortunately for my psyche, I’ve never been called [N-word] by a smart person, I had never looked into the eyes of a racist and saw anything that I perceived as intellect.”

Smith started seeing the ideas of systemic racism.

“But at the core of it, I noticed a difference between ignorance and evil. Now they’re twins, for sure, but ignorance can be educated and evil is a much more difficult problem. And fortunately, ignorance is more prevalent than blatant evil. So I’ve always been encouraged that the process of education and understanding could alleviate some of the more dangerous and difficult aspects of racism that have unfortunately been embedded in the very fibers of our country.”

What the decision by royal sources to approach media over Meghan Markle bullying claims means



Yesterday, The Times revealed that a complaint of bullying was filed against the Duchess of Sussex.

This is a serious allegation because there are victims at the heart of it.

There is a big difference between staff feeling the effects of a very demanding job with a very demanding boss, and members of staff who might be victims of a bullying boss.

Neither the Sussexes nor Buckingham Palace has denied that a bullying complaint about Meghan was made to the HR department at the Royal Household

Too Hot To Handle



If u were super horny and were surrounded by hot horny people, could you keep it in your pants for some money? That was the premise of To Hot To Handle. A bunch of hot dum-dums were trapped on an island and lost money every time they hooked up.

Notably, one of the fuckboys on the show lied about initiating a kiss with Francesca and blamed it on her, making the whole house hate her. The self-loathing girl even ended up getting back together with that asshole. Fuck everything.

also, one of the contestants looks like my sibling.

Binging with Babish: Chicken Kiev from Mad Men



Chicken Kiev, despite its geographically-specific name, is a dish of dubious origins. It’s no surprise, however, that it became an American darling in the mid-20th century: after all, it is deep-fried and stuffed with butter. Will this exercise in excess be worth the effort, not to mention the calories? Probably, yeah!

Maroon 5’s Adam Levine Is Sad That “There’s No Bands Anymore”




Adam Levine, lead singer of Maroon 5, is sad that there are no more bands. In a new interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music to promote Maroon 5’s new song “Beautiful Mistakes” featuring Megan Thee Stallion, Levine expressed his thoughts on the lack of bands in the current mainstream musical landscape.

“It’s funny, when the first Maroon 5 album came out there were still other bands,” said Levine. “I feel like there aren’t any bands anymore, you know? That’s the thing that makes me kind of sad, is that there were just bands. There’s no bands anymore, and I feel like they’re a dying breed. And so I kind of, in a weird way, as far as ... I mean, there still are plenty of bands, and maybe they’re not in the limelight quite as much, or in the pop limelight, but I wish there could be more of those around.”

Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard to Host New NBC Game Show



Because we all haven't suffered enough, Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard have inked a deal to host and compete in their own 10-episode game show for NBC.

In Family Game Fight, Bell and Shepard will each be "adopted" into a family of four and help their team win $100,000. Their families will also be competing. The show is based on their past antics on The Ellen DeGeneres Show because these two can't leave the general public out of their business and Ellen enjoys bullying all of us.

Kristen said in the press statement: "For one of our first dates, I invited Dax over for a game night at my house...he said he fell in love with me there because I was a very tiny person bossing everyone around. I fell in love with him too because he's a very large person who could boss everyone around, but chooses not to. I'm so excited to host 'Family Game Fight' and play all day with my best friend."

Dax said: "Kristen is my favorite human to work with. She's the most consistently funny, playful and joyful scene partner I've ever had. She's also incredibly fun to look at."
