TV Drama Actresses Cover THR

thr_drama_actress_roundtable

-The Hollywood Reporter’s actresses roundtable features Angela Bassett, Claire Foy, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Elisabeth Moss, Thandie Newton and Sandra Oh, and it’s well worth a read.  They talk about pay parity, sex scenes and deciding when to weigh in on decision making on sets.

-This is exactly what I wanted to hear about Ocean’s 8.

-Jesus, how is The Bachelorette still able to survive? A season 2 producer arranged for a masseuse to come to Meredith Phillips‘ room during production in L.A., and that masseuse drugged and assaulted Meredith, she says.

-Anyone else get the feeling that David Cross is… a lot? During his interview with Colbert, he got so offended that he walked off the set. I mean, I get that it was a bit but I find him exhausting.

Sarah Silverman was interviewed by GQ and was pretty damn forgiving about controversial comedians in her circle. She spoke about Al Franken (“I understand that I may have cognitive distortion, because I love him so much. But all I can say is, and he may not be excited about this, but he has no sexuality. I believe in my heart of heart of hearts he never copped a feel”), Louie CK (“He’s my brother, so it’s hard. I may not have a very clear perspective on it, but I’m trying to…I don’t have some definitive sound bite or nutshell of how I feel about it, even to myself. But I’m also okay with that”), Aziz  Ansari (“I was just like, ‘Gross, I don’t wanna know that about Aziz!’ Hopefully he’s dealing with things, looking inward, and will blossom from it”) and Roseanne (“I had the gall to get high one night and watch episodes one and two of Roseanne. And I thought it was lovely.”)

-Seeing as her own sister accused Louis CK of masturbating in front of her 20 times, I’m surprised she’s this understanding.

-You know what, I really like Ariana Grande. Like, a lot.

-Interesting look at what TV critics are picking as their fave new pilots in the upcoming season.

-This story continues to be NUTS: Smallville actress Allison Mack was arrested this morning. She and Keith Raniere, of the NXIVM cult, were charged with “sex trafficking, sex trafficking conspiracy and forced labor conspiracy.”

-This Busy Phillips profile is a wonderful read. She talks about gaining fame through her Instagram Stories, her friendship with Michelle Williams, and the flack she got for posting on the anniversary of Heath Ledger’s death. “I’ve never even really spoken about it, because I never would want to have it be misconstrued in that way, but it was the ten-year anniversary, and…It’s just been a long ten years, you know?”

Jimmy Fallon got choked up while paying tribute to Tina Fey: “Today, I have two daughters and my hope for them is that they grow up to be leaders like you, and that they’ll be as fearless and confident in their strengths as you are.”

-This is tragic: Avicii, the EDM producer and DJ, is dead at 28.

Janelle Monáe’s Dirty Computer is dropping with a 50-minute-long sci-fi film, which will debut on MTV and BET on April 26. As someone who has listened to “Pynk” 9,293 time this week, I approve.

-I never really thought I’d see Elisabeth Moss twerking on Ellen but here we are.

-I haven’t watched Scandal in years but I tuned in for last night’s finale. Are fans pissed? I’d be pissed.

-Ruh roh. Scarlett Johansson is singing again.

-I’m not sure I’m in invested in any TV show like I’m invested in the #ScaringScoty clips on Will Smith’s Instagram.

-Speaking of celebs who speak Instagram well, Jennifer Garner explaining her Oscar meme is perfect.

-Between Adam Rippon saying he “was sleeping on Shawn Mendes” and Katy Perry saying “wig” on American Idol, it’s been a really good wig for stan Twitter terminology.

-I still think it’s weird that an orthodontist was writing Tumblr posts shaming his 17-year-old patient, but good on Michael B Jordan for trying to make her feel better.

Usher and his wife, Grace Miguel, are splitting up after two years of marriage and almost 10 years together.

-I keep hearing that the first 5 episodes of Jessica Jones that were made available to critics are not as good as last year, and it bums me out.  I’m still going to binge an unhealthy amount of episodes this weekend.

-Wait, in Red Sparrow Charlotte Rampling‘s character gives blowjob  lessons? What even is this movie?!?

-This interview with someone who was at the Wrinkle in Time screening that was interrupted by Jimmy Kimmel and a bunch of stars during the Oscars is a hoot. “I kind of like get up next to [Lin-Manuel Miranda] and I’m like, can I be here? And he’s like, ‘Yeah, totally you can be here, have some Sour Patch kids?’ and I’m like, your taste in candy is immaculate, my friend.”

-This is an interesting piece on how Jane the Virgin is not a guilty pleasure. I listened to Gina Rodriguez‘s episode of the WTF podcast a few weeks ago (which was delightful!) but I was shocked to hear her describe it like that.

-Holy moly, the Lost in Space trailer is gorg.

-Here’s the first teaser for Christopher Robin.
