Does anyone give less of a fuck than an old British Dame? At this point in her career, Miriam Margolyes has nothing left to prove, so she doesn’t have to kowtow to anyone, let alone adult Harry Potter fans, whom she professes to “worry” about. “They should be over that by now,” she says in an interview with New…

In the words of an oft-shared Taylor Swift meme, “I’m so sick of running as fast as I can / wondering if I’d get there quicker if I was a man.” While the lyrics are often used to call out instances of sexism in the entertainment industry (rightfully or not), they’re perhaps even more apt for the sad situation of Anatom…

If anyone needs more proof ABC is betting heavily on Abbott Elementary after its massive viewership numbers and awards, well, here you have it. The network is giving its funniest ongoing sitcom the coveted post-Oscars slot for its next episode. Season three’s seventh episode didn’t air at its usual Wednesday night…

All celebrities likely have questions they get tired of answering. For Kelly Rowland, you might think hers would be about Destiny’s Child or Beyoncé. But no, the inquiry that haunts Rowland the most is about the song “Dilemma,” or more specifically, the music video. The Nelly track to which she contributed an iconic…

In what can only be described as a gambit to forward the Irish agenda, former James Bond Pierce Brosnan has nominated one of his countrymen to follow in his footsteps. “Cillian would do a magnificent job as James Bond on His Majesty’s Secret Service,” he said of Oppenheimer star Cillian Murphy (via the BBC). Both…

Ariana Grande’s seventh studio album, Eternal Sunshine, is officially out in the world, and like the film it takes its name from, it sees the transcendent pop star wading through the depths of her own personal history to answer one essential question, asked in the record’s opening track: “How can I tell if I’m in the…

April 14, 1865, is inarguably one of the most fateful dates in U.S. history. That’s the day President Abraham Lincoln attended a performance of Our American Cousin with his wife, Mary. Midway through the show, John Wilkes Booth fatally shot the President, hopped on stage, yelled the infamous line “Sic semper…

Here we are at the end of another awards season, with some clear frontrunners and others that are too close to call. As we get ready for the 96th Academy Awards on Sunday we think it’s safe to say it’s going to be a big night for Christopher Nolan and Oppenheimer. But with such a strong field of contenders it’s…

We’ll sound off in the space above, and invite you to respond down in the comments, telling us what you’re playing this weekend, and what…

Akira Toriyama has died. As the creator of the long-running Dragon Ball franchise—to say nothing of his work in film, television, video games, and in other manga titles—Toriyama could comfortably be described as one of the most influential comics creators of all time. With an instantly recognizable style, a notably…

There’s been much talk, in recent years, about the fate of the humble romantic comedy, and which avatars of human affability—mixed with just enough caustic comedy, sexual tension, and straight-up farce—could genuinely resurrect the form.

It was all over the moment the first person decided to open up their own wallet and accept the fact that they could no longer mooch off of someone else’s Netflix account. And by “it” we mean society in general. It’s been all downhill since July of last year, when Netflix gleefully announced that very few people had…

First, it was Nicki Minaj and Megan Thee Stallion, who got into it after Megan called out Minaj’s registered sex offender husband in her song, “Hiss,” prompting a whole, hastily-penned diss track in response from her…
