All Hail Halle Berry, The Queen of Twitter

Halle Berry owned Twitter last night and the internet loved it.

-Broken Social Scene debuted a new song on the Colbert show and the entire gang was there! Emily Haines, Jimmy Shaw and Amy Millan all showed up.

-The EW reunion issue is the gift that keeps on giving. This new Love Actually reunion photo is wonderful.

James Corden as Belle from Beauty & the Beast is everything.

Meghan Markle‘s former classmates are coming out of the woodwork — but in a surprising twist, they have nice things to say!

-She’s also being honoured for her humanitarian work in the UK edition of Vanity Fair.

-Well, here’s a new one: the Hoverboard company filed a lawsuit against Jennifer Lopez for failing to promote their product.

-The Big Little Lies finale is this weekend and I am not ready!

-Is this the most awkward interview James Van Der Beek has ever done? It’s possible.

-You can tell The Leftovers is coming back because Justin Theroux has been talking a lot about marrying Jennifer Aniston.

-I really like Lainey‘s piece in Chatelaine wondering if not doing housework undermines her feminism. Word, girl.

Tom Cruise is looking super fit in the new trailer for The Mummy.

 

Evan Rachel Wood Channels Bowie for Elle

-I adore Evan Rachel Wood’s Elle Canada cover! She talks about her love of David Bowie, relocating to Nashville, and writing happy songs instead of sad ones.

-Is Victoria Beckham heading to Carpool Karaoke? But, but…she’ll have to sing.

Chris Evans responded to Jenny Slate‘s glowing comments about him in kind, saying that she is his “favorite human,” and “the best.”

Justin Theroux presented Jennifer Aniston with an empty piñata during her birthday celebration.

-I love this headline: “Fuck Chris Brown and Black-ish should know better”

Nancy Meyers almost getting into a car accident because she was distracted by a beautiful kitchen is the most on-brand thing I’ve ever read…

Cindy Crawford knows how to use George Clooney’s twins for branding. Smart.

Chris Pine shaved his head and it’s kind of breaking my heart? That’s not weird, right??

-People on the internet have a LOT of opinions about the news that Joss Whedon will direct a standalone Batgirl film. I mean, of course it would be better to have a female director, but it could be worse. And this is a huge get for DC. (I still think it’s weird that every other week they announce a huge new movie while announcing another one is delayed.)

Anthony Stewart Head says he tried very hard to attend the Buffy reunion, but his theatre schedule prevented it.

-Here’s our first Game of Thrones teaser for season 7.

-This humour piece on TV critics pressuring people to watch The Americans hits too close to home. (Seriously though, have you tried watching it yet?!)

Kirsten Dunst is at the top of her Instagram game.

-Girl Trip isn’t even out get and “booty hole” is part of my everyday lexicon.

Brad Pitt puts boots on the ground in this new trailer for War Machine.

Buffy Mania Overtakes The Internet — And I Love It!

-EW dropped a surprise Buffy reunion cover today — complete with an amazing photo shoot and a 44-minute video special — and my heart is so full! The only person missing is Anthony Stewart Head. (Nicholas Brendan is there too, but for some reason he isn’t in the group video chat. And he didn’t tag Alyson Hannigan in his FB post about it.) In any case, I’m really hoping my subscriber cover ends up being this one.

-I also really liked everyone’s take on Angel vs Spike. I love Spike as a character (especially in the spinoff) but attempted rapists are probably not meant to be part of the OTP.

Annette Bening ordered Warren Beatty home after the Best Picture fiasco at the Oscars. Smart woman.

-Costars/new couple Melissa Benoist and Chris Wood look like they’re having fun in Mexico. (I hate her high-cut bikini. And she has multiple versions of it!)

-The Mindy Project is only getting one more season, which is good. I’m looking forward to seeing what she does next.

-Studio head Sherry Lansing‘s new biography includes tidbits about Angelina Jolie‘s mandated drug testing during Tomb Raider’s filming, and Glenn Close’s protests at re-shooting Fatal Attractions’ ending after test audiences demanded her character die.

-Ouch! Charlize Theron is going for her fourth root canal thanks to stunts on Atomic Blonde.

George Clooney says he totally ready for parenthood: “I played a pediatrician on ER. So I know how to work on extra children…If there’s any accidents, I’m there. I’m the guy.”

-Meanwhile, Amal is probably not going to let him name their twins.

Emma Thompson says she almost quit a movie when a producer body-shamed her costar.

-I never watched Bones but I like this take on how it was an unconventional love story that upended the typical will-they/won’t-they schtick.

Kristen Bell and James Corden‘s aerial duet went hilariously wrong.

-Another writers’ strike might happen. I support the WGA but I really hope it doesn’t (the first strike was the kiss of death for a bunch of great new shows that could never recover, most famously Pushing Daisies).

Nicole Kidman says she’s haunted by those therapy scenes in Big Little Lies.  Same, girl.

Judy Greer loves watching montages of her kissing leading men like George Clooney, Ashton Kutcher and more. (Her “can I keep this?” is the cutest.)

-The People article about Jennifer Lawrence and Darren Aronofsky’s relationship is…odd.

-Netflix is sticking to its Santa Clarita Diet, which just got a second season.

-Like everyone else, Alec Baldwin fell in love with Tina Fey when he first met her and asked if she was single. “When I first met Tina Fey — beautiful and brunette, smart and funny, by turns smug and diffident and completely uninterested in me or anything I had to say — I had the same reaction that I’m sure many men and women have: I fell in love.”

-Oh yeah, I forgot Prison Break returns Tuesday after seven years for a limited nine-episode run. I wonder if there’s a 5-minute series recap on YouTube?

-This is an interesting look at the rise of surreal TV. I’m kind of over shows that are pretty mind-screws that don’t actually amount to much (cough, Legion, cough).

-The trailer for the updated IT looks very, very good and I will never watch this movie.

-Here’s the trailer for Luc Besson‘s sci-fi adaptation Valerian, starring Cara Delevingne, Dane DeHaan and a blink-and-you’ll-miss-her glimpse of Rihanna.
