Brace yourself Bachelor Nation, Kat Izzo is making her way back to the beach. The outspoken Bachelor Nation alum will appear on Season 10 of Bachelor in Paradise. And, if history is any indication, drama won’t be far behind. After a spiral of a relationship in last season, which ended in a headline-grabbing engagement with John Henry and an even messier breakup, Kat has been anything but silent.

Her return comes amid major changes in the show, a fresh cast lineup, and a brand new location. And, she may say she’s here for love, she may also be here with something to prove, probably a score to settle.

When Risky Business dropped in 1983, it looked like just another raunchy teen comedy. Tom Cruise sliding across the floor in his tighty-whities became the stuff of pop culture legend. But behind the shades and seduction was a much smarter story.

The film wasn’t about teen lust, it was about the seductive pull of money, power, and the American dream. Cruise’s character goes from high schooler to hustler, learning that in the real world, it’s not about right or wrong, it’s about what you can get away with.

Unpacking the deeper message in Tom Cruise’s Risky Business!

At first glance, 1983’s Risky Business might look like just another raunchy teen comedy, with a rebellious high schooler, a wild week alone, and an iconic dance in underwear. But on closer viewing, especially as an adult, the film reveals itself as something much deeper, a sharp, stylish critique of capitalism.

Today, Tom Cruise can do whatever he wants in his movies, and no one can tell him he can’t have the ending he wants. But when he was new in the business, he had to yield and agree to studios and producers who wanted different narratives.

Cruise continues to be on top of his game even after decades of making movies in Hollywood. He certainly has that charm that attracts people of all ages. We may know him from his work on the Mission: Impossible franchise, but he rose to fame after starring in 1983’s Risky Business.

Tom Cruise reveals original ending of Risky Business

One of the biggest A-listers in Tinseltown, Tom Cruise, came from humble beginnings before rising to the top. His first minor role was in the 1981 romantic drama Endless Love, but it was his performance in 1983’s romantic comedy Risky Business that propelled him to stardom.

A little over a year ago, it was reported that Noah Baumbach has been tapped to helm his fourth project with Netflix after Marriage Story, White Noise and The Meyerowitz Stories. Plot details are still kept under wraps and it was only this past January that Netflix revealed the title of the film will be Jay Kelly. Baumbach directs the film from a screenplay written by him and the movie’s co-star, Emily Mortimer. Baumbach reunites with his Meyerowitz Stories star Adam Sandler and pairs him up with George Clooney. Netflix continues to dole out the details of the film little by little and today, we are treated to a single image of the film. Take a gander below.

The only description given for the plot reads, “It’s a heartbreaking comedy from Noah Baumbach starring George Clooney,...

As Lester Bangs said in Almost Famous, “The only true currency in this bankrupt world is what you share with someone else when you’re uncool.” And director Cameron Crowe is going to share the story of his “uncool” life with a memoir arriving later this year titled, aptly enough, The Uncool.

Simon & Schuster (via their Avid Reader Press imprint) will release Cameron Crowe’s memoir this fall, with an October 28th shelf date. As far as the era The Uncool will cover, fans and readers can expect it to lean heavily on Crowe’s time immersing himself in the music industry, where he found himself as a teen working for Rolling Stone and reporting on the likes of Bob Dylan, David Bowie, the Eagles, Led Zeppelin, and more.

As per the publisher, The Uncool “offers a front-row ticket to the 1970s, a golden era for music and art when rock was young.

Before she became everyone’s favorite goth forensic genius on NCIS, Pauley Perrette had already been in a short-lived but beloved legal drama that flew under the radar. A whole seven years before stepping into Abby Sciuto’s lab coat, she starred in a quirky two-season series that’s now got cult status among TV buffs.

Sadly, despite its charm and a loyal fanbase, the network pulled the plug way too soon. It’s one of those “canceled too early” heartbreakers and a hidden gem in Perrette’s pre-NCIS resume.

Before NCIS, Pauley Perrette starred in Murder One, a forgotten legal drama

Seven years before NCIS made her a household name, Pauley Perrette was already serving up standout performances — this time in a sharp, short-lived legal drama called Murder One. The show ran for two seasons on ABC, and Perrette joined the cast in Season 2, which aired in 1996. It didn’t last long,...

Kate Hudson, the Oscar-nominated actress who is currently in Emmy contention for her portrayal of a semi-fictional version of Los Angeles Lakers owner Jeanie Buss in the Netflix comedy series Running Point, has been tapped for the TV Performance of the Year Award (Actress) at the inaugural Newport Beach TV Fest, the fest announced Thursday.

The award will be presented to Hudson immediately following a live recording of The Hollywood Reporter’s Awards Chatter podcast — moderated by yours truly and featuring a career-retrospective conversation — which will kick off at 7pm on Thursday, June 5, at Newport Beach’s Lido Theater.

“We are honored to recognize Kate Hudson for her outstanding performance as team president Isla Gordon in Running Point,” Newport Beach TV Fest CEO and executive director Gregg Schwenk said in a statement. “Kate brings her infectious energy and comedic brilliance to this role. She has captivated audiences for decades, and...

Coming off of the high of the record-breaking summer blockbuster Deadpool & Wolverine, Hugh Jackman has some exciting and unconventional plans for the future. With the incredible box-office performance of his latest Wolverine appearance, people might assume Jackman would ride out the success in other action comedy movies, but the X-Men actor is instead returning to his musical roots. Jackman has shown off his considerable musical talents in movie musicals The Greatest Showman and Les Misérables, and now the triple threat is joining Kate Hudson (who just released an album) in a new musical from the director of Hustle & Flow.

Focus Features has set Song Sung Blue for a wide release on December 25, 2025. The film, written and directed by Craig Brewer, stars Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson and tells the inspiring true story of two down-on-their-luck performers who form a joyous Neil Diamond tribute band, proving it's never too late...

Twenty years ago, the comedy world was stunned by the death of beloved performer Mitch Hedberg, who was still on the rise not long after having released what would become his best-selling album.

Known for his absurdist, one-liner-style delivery, Hedberg was revered by fans and fellow comics alike. He made 10 appearances on The Late Show With David Letterman and has three stand-up albums, including Mitch All Together, released in December 2003 and certified gold in 2021. Hedberg, who had been dubbed “the next [Jerry] Seinfeld” by Time magazine, was found dead from a drug overdose at age 37 on March 30, 2005.

But his unique perspective has continued to bring joy to fans new and old, and Emmy-nominated filmmaker Jeff Siegel (Billy Joel: The 100th) is currently working to celebrate Hedberg’s legacy with a feature documentary. The movie, which does not yet have an announced title or release date, has wrapped principal photography and will include archival footage,...

Zooey Deschanel, acclaimed for her performances in comedy films like “The Good Girl” (2002), “The New Guy” (2002), “Elf” (2003), “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” (2005), “Failure to Launch” (2006), “Yes Man” (2008), and “500 Days of Summer” (2009), stands at a height of 5 feet 4 ½ inches, or approximately 163.8 cm.

She first gained significant attention in the film industry as Anita in Cameron Crowe’s 2000 movie “Almost Famous.”

Above Average? Exploring Zooey Deschanel’s Height and Shoe Size

To put this in perspective, the average height of an American woman is about 5 feet 4 inches (about 162.6 cm), which means Zooey Deschanel’s height is just slightly above the national average.

Life is like a beautiful melody of moments, where one moment you’re basking in its glory, feeling on top of the world, and the next, grappling with the unforeseen twist that turns it upside down. It’s this unpredictability that makes it exhilarating and petrifying at the same time. Such has been the case with Katie Thurston, The Bachelorette alum who appeared on the 17th season of the show.

Recently, Thurston took the internet by surprise, announcing to the world and her loyal fans that she has Stage IV breast cancer. A shocker indeed! Despite starting treatment for the ailment and being optimistic as well, some fans wonder about her post-cancer battle plans.

This week marks the 20th anniversary of The Office, the groundbreaking NBC sitcom that redefined workplace comedy and launched the careers of several cast members. Since the show’s debut on March 24, 2005, many of its stars have gone on to successful careers in television and film, earning critical acclaim and industry recognition — but the ensemble surprisingly did not have the greatest success when it came to Emmy Awards.

Leading man Steve Carell starred as Michael Scott, the endearingly incompetent regional manager of the Scranton branch of paper company Dunder Mifflin. He received six Emmy nominations for Best Comedy Actor during his time on The Office and four Best Comedy Series nominations as part of the show’s creative team, which included creator Greg Daniels, who developed the series from the original U.K. version created by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant. Carell then returned to the Emmys in 2020 when he...

Bachelor Nation fans were shocked when ABC paused The Bachelorette. The dating show will not return in 2025 or 2026. Since then, various theories have swirled about the network’s decision. Ashley Iaconetti and Ben Higgins explained what happened to the show.

Was The Bachelorette Cancelled?

Fans fear the show might not come back. Iaconetti and Higgins addressed the franchise’s “rough patch” on their Almost Famous podcast’s Friday, March 14 episode. The Bachelor Nation alumni spilled the tea on the behind-the-scenes drama. They learned that production had already filmed 75 percent of The Bachelorette Season 22. This season would include romantic scenes set in Greece and Portugal.

But that’s when ABC pulled the plug on the spinoff series. The network wanted to save money and film in the United States, like The Golden Bachelor and The Golden Bachelorette. But Higgins doesn’t believe The Bachelorette was paused to save money. ABC canceled...

The "Star Wars" prequels were once maligned but, thanks in no small part to the popularity of shows like "The Clone Wars," this era of the beloved franchise has been claimed by a younger generation of fans. Anakin Skywalker is now a marquee character and Hayden Christensen is welcomed by much of the fandom with open arms. That wasn't always the case, but as evidenced by his return in "Obi-Wan Kenobi" and "Ahsoka," it certainly is today. However, in another timeline, a radically different actor could have taken on this pivotal role.

Nick Swardson -- yes, the very same Nick Swardson who plays Terry on "Reno 911!" and has worked on several collaborations with Adam Sandler -- was among the names who auditioned for the role of Anakin Skywalker in "Star Wars: Episode II -- Attack of the Clones." Yes,...

A rare, 40-year-old Tom Petty documentary from Almost Famous writer-director Cameron Crowe is available to stream for the first time. Tom Petty: Heartbreakers Beach Party originally aired on MTV in 1983 and was not seen for decades after. The film was restored for a one-weekend theatrical release in October, and it’s now available to stream on Paramount+ as of March 11.

The cult 1980s music documentary from Cameron Crowe received a full restoration last year, the first time it’s been available for a global audience.

Cameron Crowe’s cult music documentary “Tom Petty: Heartbreakers Beach Party” was the stuff of legend for nearly 40 years, airing only once on MTV in 1983 and deemed too experimental for further viewings. But last year, the original 16 mm tapes were rediscovered, and what was once folklore to fans, musicians, and the collective entertainment industry is now getting the eyes it deserves. The newly restored “Tom Petty: Heartbreakers Beach Party” will be available this Tuesday, March 11, marking the first time the film will be largely available to a global audience. Watch the highly anticipated film, which comes with 20 minutes of bonus material, exclusively on Paramount+!

Spoiler Warning: This story discusses plot details from the Netflix series “Running Point,” which is now streaming.

Kate Hudson has always been a sports fan, and growing up between California and Colorado meant cheering for the Denver Broncos, the Los Angeles Kings and, of course, the L.A. Lakers. As a teenager, Hudson would go to Kings games with her parents, who introduced her to Jeanie Buss, the then 30-something executive who managed the Forum, where the hockey team played.

“Kate would just, like, shadow me,” Buss recalls. “I’d take her around the building give her a tour, explain what the Forum Club was, and how we operated the tickets and the box office.”

Hudson, sitting next to her, jumps in eagerly: “I was also a little naughty, so I would like to sneak into places. Jeanie kept me… she was like ‘You stay here.’”

As they start to...

Not every movie needs to be Citizen Kane. Sometimes audiences need something light and fluffy so they can forget their worries and just come out of the theater with a smile. That's the statement Kate Hudson has made in defense of her romantic comedy run, which may have generated solid box office but was met with less than favorable reactions from critics. In defending her rom-com run, Hudson wants to remind critics that they weren't trying to win awards.

During a chat with Entertainment Weekly, Hudson spoke about the negative reviews some of her romantic comedies endured despite them being more warmly received by moviegoers. Films such as How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (42 percent on Rotten Tomatoes) and the trifecta of Fools Gold, Bride Wars and Something Borrowed (15 percent on Rotten Tomatoes) became a staple of Hudson's career...despite the displeasure some critics had watching them.

Kate Hudson was embarrassed when she didn’t recognize two key songs from her best-known movies on Thursday in the latest edition of Kelly Clarkson’s name-that-song game “Throw Me a Line.”

The actress and singer, who next stars in the Netflix series “Running Point,” was late to identify “You’re So Vain,” which she sang in the the 2003 romcom “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days,” and Elton John’s “Tiny Dancer,” which was pivotal to Cameron Crowe’s 2000 rock ‘n’ roll dramedy “Almost Famous.”

“Oh my god!” Hudson exclaimed when she realized she’s missed “Tiny Dancer.”

“That’s like the most famous scene in the movie and you f–ked it up!” Clarkson gloated, pointing in her face.

Kate Hudson has had a robust career, but “Running Point” marks a first for the actress. Believe it or not, this is her first leading TV role.

Now streaming on Netflix, the series focuses on Isla Gordon (Hudson), as she’s unexpectedly given control of her family’s basketball team, the Waves. Though a fictional team and story, “Running Point” is loosely based on Lakers president Jeanie Buss.

Here are all the major players you’ll need to know in the series.

Netflix Isla Gordon (Kate Hudson)

Isla Gordon is the sole daughter of the Gordon family, and is taken fully by surprise when her oldest brother hands her the reins to the team. She’s played by Kate Hudson, known for films like “Almost Famous,” “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days,” and many, many more.

Michael Angarano is headed to “Sacramento.” After a solid career as a child actor (the young version of the “Almost Famous” star), morphing into plenty of good indie roles and flexing his chops in comedy, young Angarano is all grown up and despite the boyish good looks is actually 37-years-old now.

Make some way for Netflix! The streaming service is dribbling down the court and shooting nothing but straight buckets with its latest original comedy series. Kate Hudson might be best known for her romantic comedies on the big screen, but the Oscar-nominated movie star is tackling her first leading role in a comedy series with Netflix's new sitcom Running Point.

She's not the only big name attached to the series. There are plenty more familiar faces in the main and supporting cast, but behind the scene, there's an even bigger name. None other than The Office and The Mindy Project (not to mention Never Have I Ever and The Sex Lives of College Girls) mastermind Mindy Kaling co-created the series, which she also writes and executive produces.

Rachel Recchia spilled secrets on The Bachelorette. She teased the real reason for ABC’s decision to halt production. The network could be exploring Hulu’s hit reality series, Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.

Spilling The Tea

Recchia didn’t hold back on the Almost Famous podcast with Ashley Iaconetti. She shared that ABC already had a lead in mind for The Bachelorette and that their decision “made sense.” But Recchia wouldn’t reveal who it was since she’s under contract with the franchise. However, the producers decided to pull the show from the 2025 lineup. At first, it was assumed that the decision was due to increased competition from other dating shows.

But it looks like the network wants to explore the success of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. The original series explores the swinging scandal that haunted a Mormon mom group on TikTok. The docuseries broke records when it debuted on Hulu.

Zach Shallcross and Kaity Biggar are doing well since they were on The Bachelor and fell in love. These two have things looking up for them and are now admitting that they even canceled their big wedding plans. So what is going to happen for them now?

Zach Shallcross And Kaity Bigger Share Update

Zach Shallcross and Kaity Bigger just recently shared that they canceled a big wedding. They have decided instead of spending the money on a wedding they would rather spend it on more important things. Here is how they explained it all:

“We pondered on it for a week and we’re like, ‘[It] does not feel good to just go so into this venue when we’ve already established what our priorities are,’ which is buying a house and not a down payment for one day. So we backed out of the contract. Not saying we’re done with wedding planning.

Earlier this month, we published an extensive profile of Eric Carmen that delved into the brilliant music and complicated private life of the pop visionary, who died in March 2024.

“There’s no cult like celebrity” goes the tagline for “Opus,” Mark Anthony Green’s new thriller. Looking like a cross of “Don’t Blink Twice,” “The Menu,” and “Almost Famous,” the film from A24, out in theaters March 14, is about a reclusive rock star named Moretti (John Malkovich) who’s suddenly releasing a new album after almost 30 years. Watch the trailer for “Opus” below.

As part of his album release, Moretti invites select press, including Ayo Edebiri, Juliette Lewis, and Murray Hamilton to his remote compound where he lives like a prince.

Get ready to rock and roll as Almost Famous, the critically acclaimed musical drama, has hit Paramount+ for the New Year. The movie, which is undoubtedly one of the best musical films of all time, tells the semi-autobiographical story of Cameron Crowe and his teenage years as a journalist. Released in 2000, Almost Famous follows the story of 15-year-old William Miller, portrayed by Patrick Fugit, who lands the opportunity of a lifetime writing for Rolling Stone magazine. Set in the 1970s, it's a perfect representation of the era’s rock culture as it takes viewers on William’s adventures on the road with the fictional band Stillwater.

Brad Pitt’s career is like an open invitation to a star-studded dinner party where every seat is filled with iconic roles, juicy scripts, and unforgettable performances. One minute, he’s the charming, smooth-talking con artist in Ocean’s Eleven, the next, he’s the tortured soul with an existential crisis in Fight Club, and in Troy, he’s not just conquering the Colosseum, but stealing hearts like a true Hollywood gladiator.

He has dipped his toes into every genre, from heart-pounding thrillers to intimate dramas, and made each role feel like a tailor-made suit.

Even the brightest stars, it seems, need to take a pause now and then, casting a reflective gaze upon the roads they didn’t take. In fact, Pitt’s career is also laced with “What If?” moments—those iconic roles he could’ve had but walked away from.

Though the Christmas season has come and gone, it’s never a bad time to revisit one of CBS’s most memorable holiday productions. And what makes it even more special?

"My Name Is Earl" is one of those sitcoms that remains beloved to a select group of fans but never really caught on in the zeitgeist in a way like "The Office" or "30 Rock" did. It had a great, heartwarming premise of the titular Earl (Jason Lee) wanting to make amends to all the people he's wronged in his troublemaking life. Earl typically hung around an eclectic group of characters to help (or hinder) him along his journey, and there was the potential for the show to make some big waves had it been allowed to continue.

Sadly, "My Name Is Earl" was canceled after four seasons due to negotiation issues between the network and the studio. It was an anticlimactic development, especially seeing as season 4 ended on a cliffhanger with the revelation that Darnell (Eddie Steeples) wasn't the father to Earl Jr.

Timothée Chalamet hasn’t even turned 30, but that isn’t stopping the American Cinematheque from embarking on a week-long retrospective of the Oscar-nominated actor’s red-hot career.

“He’s an extraordinary talent,” says Imani Davis, film programmer at the American Cinematheque in Los Angeles. “I can’t think of many other times where we’ve highlighted the work of someone so young, but he’s already done a lot of amazing work and really established himself.”

Davis says that tickets for the three screenings that Chalamet will appear at in person sold out nine minutes after they went on sale, a record for the organization. “The demand has been incredible,” she reports.

And it’s not just Chalamet who will be popping up at post-screening Q&a’s. Andrew Garfield will moderate a conversation with Chalamet and Luca Guadagnino on Jan. 9 tied to a double feature of the actor and director’s two collaborations,...

In a throwback, director Cameron Crowe revealed that Pitt was initially tapped to play the lead guitarist of the fictional rock band Stillwater. Instead, Billy Crudup ultimately brought the role to life, but the casting process was much more star-studded than you might think.

The two had an undeniable connection after an extraordinary meeting during Say Anything, and when Crowe started working on Almost Famous, Pitt was his first choice.
