Sarah Jessica Parker Returns to Vogue

Sarah-Jessica-Parker-Vogue

-In anticipation of And Just Like That, Sarah Jessica Parker graces the new issue of Vogue. She talks about the reaction to photos from the SATC reboot (“There’s so much misogynist chatter in response to us that would never. Happen. About. A. Man. ‘Gray hair gray hair gray hair. Does she have gray hair?’ I’m sitting with Andy Cohen and he has a full head of gray hair, and he’s exquisite. Why is it okay for him?”) and talks about juggling career with family (“I don’t have any tips and tricks, except that I’m incredibly fortunate that I have childcare and a partner, because so many mothers who work two and three jobs do not”).

-Meanwhile, Kim Cattrall has joined the cast of Peacock’s Queer As Folk.

-DeuxMoi has been hinting at it for weeks, but now it seems like Victoria Pedretti really is dating her You co-star Dylan Arnold. Even though their characters’ age difference was a big plot point on the show, he’s actually a year older than her.

-Succession’s best couple is Tom and Greg, so I’m thrilled that EW did a whole feature on Nicholas Braun and Matthew Macfadyen. Those videos!

-In an interview with The Times, Kirsten Dunst spoke about filming The Power Of The Dog in New Zealand when the pandemic struck. “We would go to the grocery store and take off our clothes and wipe down afterwards. No one knew anything, it was terrifying, and at the time I smoked so I was like, ‘Oh my God, if I get this I am gonna die.’ ”

Prince Harry said he had warned Jack Dorsey before January 6th that Twitter was being used to plan a coup. “I warned him that his platform was allowing a coup to be staged. That email was sent the day before and then that happened and I haven’t heard from him since.”

-Meanwhile, Meghan Markle says she supports paid leave. “I think this is one of those issues that is not red or blue. We can all agree that people need support certainly when they’ve just had a child. Paid leave, from my standpoint, is just a humanitarian issue.”

Leonardo DiCaprio is in talks to play Jim Jones in a movie about the Peoples Temple. Ooh boy, this could go really wrong.

-Early reaction to House of Gucci is all over the place, though most critics seem impressed by Lady Gaga’s performance.

-I love that People included SNL’s Bowen Yang in their Sexiest Man Alive issue.

Aaron Rodgers reportedly didn’t expect all the blowback but is standing by his anti-v*x comments. “I don’t only talk to ‘yes’ people or people who allow me to live in an echo chamber of my own thoughts and beliefs.” Which is exactly what that community is but sure.

Carrie Underwood‘s husband Mike Fisher defended him, saying “I agree with him in that the science clearly shows the vaccinated spread covid at basically the same rate as the unvaccinated.” Which is not true.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is, as always, the voice of reason, saying Rodgers “does not have the right to endanger people around him.”

-Oh Demi Lovato, what are you doing?!

Jennifer Garner dressed her dog up like some of her most popular characters. Bless her.

Jamie Dornan sang at the Belfast premiere party this week. People that pretty shouldn’t also be so talented. It’s not fair.

-In news that will surprise no one, season two of Squid Game is already in the works.

Is Jennifer Garner Engaged?

Jennifer Garner hosted Judy Greer on Instagram Live to talk about sobriety and the whole convo was interesting (she calls her pal “J-Gers”), but all anyone can talk about is the sparkler on her ring finger.

Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson were spotted out together yet again, this time at a NYC private club. I have no idea what’s going on with these two, but if we know about this, it’s because she wants us to know about this.

-Meanwhile, this piece on Pete Davidson being a rare straight male muse is fascinating. “Davidson has carved out a niche for himself as a master of the fleeting engagement: the person you meet on an app, see for a few months, then part ways with as though you’d never met. His flings resemble the sorts of ephemeral attachments that many of his fans are likely most familiar with. More common than love, quite possibly a waste of time, with the potential to be much more destructive, but hard to avoid, if you don’t want to be alone.”

Cardi B and Kal Penn‘s twitter exchange about her officiating his wedding is hella cute.

-Speaking of unusual wedding officiants, Kristen Stewart joked about having Guy Fieri do hers — and seems thrilled that he said yes.

Stewart also talked about her engagement on The Tonight Show. “Knocked it out of the park. I scored.”

-Shortly after Jay-Z became the first person followed by Beyoncé on Instagram, he deleted his account. I get it — too much pressure!

Matthew Hutchins, the husband of late Rust cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, has retained California-based law firm that specializes in wrongful death litigation.

Dwayne Johnson is pledging to stop using real firearms on all projects produced by his company. “We’re going to switch over to rubber guns, and we’re going to take care of it in post… We won’t worry about what it costs.”

-Meanwhile, Johnson’s Netfllix movie with Ryan Reynolds and Gal Gadot is at 37% rotten.

Nicholas Braun talks to The Guardian on coming to terms with his life-changing role as Cousin Greg on Succession.

Shailene Woodley‘s name trended on Twitter yesterday when it was revealed her fiancé Aaron Rodgers isn’t vaccinated — because god forbid we hold grown ass men responsible for their own actions when we can blame it on their partners.

-In a new memoir, Natalie Wood’s sister Lana claims that Kirk Douglas sexually assaulted Natalie when she was a teenager.

-Twitter is dragging Chris Pratt for his post about his wife. You love to see it.

-This is a great look back at the Buffy musical episode, which aired 20 years ago(!) this week.

Mahershala Ali plays a dying man who considers getting cloned so his family won’t know he’s gone in the trailer for Apple+’s Swan Song, costarring Glenn Close, Naomie Harris, Awkwafina and Adam Beach.

-Here’s the trailer for Netflix’s A Castle for Christmas, starring Brooke Shields and Cary Elwes.

-The Hating Game is my fave romcom book, and the trailer for its adaptation has arrived! I wish Robbie Amell hadn’t had to drop out of this, because I’m not convinced of the chemistry based on the trailer, but I’m still going to watch the shit out of this.

-I’m still watching The Morning Show — not because it’s good, but because it’s a train wreck that I can’t look away from. This week’s development makes little sense, so for this show it makes perfect sense. I’m amazed they weren’t publicizing this plot development in the trailers. (Spoilers for the latest episode, obviously).

-The judge in Kelly Clarkson‘s divorce has ruled that the Montana Ranch is hers, not her ex’s.
