POPULARITY
Is love in the air, Richies? “The Naked Gun” reboot hits theaters on Friday, and its stars, Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson, are pounding the pavement to promote the movie. But all anyone can say about Pam and Liam's promo push, is that these two seem smitten as all get out. And now it looks like their on-screen chemistry is playing out off-screen too. After that, we'll fill you in on an even more surprising pairing - Katy Perry and Canada's former Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau. Are they really living out some "Teenage Dream" or is it all BS? Switching gears, we also have the blowback Pedro Pascal's getting for his “handsy” behavior while promoting “The Fantastic Four: First Steps.” And speaking of blowback, just what exactly is going on in Sydney Sweeney's “American Eagle” ad?

Capping off ETR's “Summer Blockbuster Month,” we've got a man who has some experience in that department - Leonardo DiCaprio. After gaining traction with his performance in 1996's “Romeo + Juliet,” Leo stars in one of the most blockbustery blockbusters off all time - “Titanic.” It makes him a bonafide movie star, solidifies his heart throb status, and turns him into the hottest young actor in town. And tabloids can't get enough of which supermodel is on the arm of Hollywood's perennial bachelor. Leo has managed to do the near impossible in Tinseltown. He's retained his A-list, movie star status for decades now, all while keeping his private life...well, private. Not bad for a kid who got his start on “Growing Pains.”You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

It's not that hard to kill a planet. All it takes is a little drilling, some mining, a generous helping of pollution and voila! Earth over. When you take stock of what's left, it starts to look like a crime scene: decapitated mountains, poisoned rivers, oil-soaked pelicans, maybe a sun-bleached cow skull in a dried-up lake bed. The only thing missing is yellow caution tape. On each episode of Lawless Planet, host Zach Goldbaum reveals the scams, murders and cover-ups on the frontline of the climate crisis, and the life and death choices people are making to either protect our world – or destroy it.Listen to Lawless Planet: Wondery.fm/LawlessPlanetSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Richies, this episode of “Rich and Weekly” is jam packed. First up, we have all the craziness going down at CBS. They just announced that they're canning Stephen Colbert and “The Late Show” after one more season. And now - every corner of the internet is weighing in on the real reason for the cancellation and how this affects the future of late night TV. After that, we have a very disturbing update from Denise Richards, having to do with her now-estranged husband, Aaron Phypers. And we wrap things up with a double dose of sad news - all the shocking details surrounding the deaths of Ozzy Osbourne and Malcolm-Jamal Warner.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
ETR's "Summer Blockbuster Month" is still going strong, Richies! And God knows Lindsay Lohan's life is the the stuff of a great blockbuster script. She starts off as a gifted child actor, and wows critics and audiences alike with her star-making performance in “The Parent Trap.” Then as a teenager, she morphs into a young startlet thanks to her roles in ""Freaky Friday"" and “Mean Girls.” But as Lindsay's star continues to rise, she becomes a victim of vicious tabloid culture. And things go so off the rails for Lindsay, she winds up in rehab, and even jail. But leave it to Lindsay to bounce back. You can see her in the much-anticipated sequel “Freakier Friday,” alongside her old co-star Jamie Lee Curtis. Lindsay's proving that she's back, better, and healthier than ever.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

JoJo Siwa keeps making headlines. Last time it was because of her showmance with her “Celebrity Big Brother UK” castmate, Chris Hughes. This time it's because of her version of the Kim Carnes classic, “Bette Davis Eyes.” As per usual, JoJo leans into the autotune big time, and she's getting roasted for it. Then we've got all the drama between former flames Zach Bryan and Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia. They had a messy breakup after Zach let Brianna (and the rest of the world) know they were over on Instagram! Looks like Zach's stirring up more sh*t over their relationship, and Chickenfry's clapping back - with receipts. And finally, we'll fill you in on everything we know about Pete Davidson's baby announcement. Looks like Petey-boy's BDE is about to stand for Big Dad Energy.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Liam Neeson has always considered himself lucky. He manages to survive and escape the violence that plagues Northern Ireland during The Troubles. And then - as luck would have it - his acting talents are his ticket outta there. And he his eyes on the big city - London. After establishing himself as one of Hollywood's hottest actors, he experiences the devastating loss of his wife, Natasha Richardson. Liam turns to work and alcohol - a lot of alcohol - as coping mechanisms. These days, Liam is back on top. And with his upcoming appearance in the “Naked Gun” reboot, we just had to include him in ETR's “Blockbuster Month!”You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

Well Richies - our national nightmare is over. For now. We finally have a verdict in the Diddy trial. And it's not quite the result the prosecution was hoping for. A lot of people think Diddy is getting off easy. But speaking of people who are not getting off easy - is it diva down with Kelly Clarkson? Rumors have been swirling about the well-being of the “Stronger” singer for months. And now there's speculation that “Miss Independent's” bad way could be affecting her Vegas residency. Wrapping up, we also have the latest on all the Denise Richards divorce drama. When the drama's alliterative, that's when you know it's good.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Richies, this month we'll be celebrating actors who you'll see in this summer's biggest movies. We're kicking off our ""Even the Rich: Summer Blockbuster Month"" with ""Jurassic World Rebirth"" star, Scarlett Johansson! With critical praise for much of her work - including 2003's “Lost in Translation” and “Girl with a Pearl Earring ” - she's been on a roll for decades. But her enormous success hasn't been without its share of pitfalls. Sure, the “Black Widow"" actor is one of Hollywood's most bankable stars, but she's also one of its most controversial. But - like it or not - Scarlett always sticks to her guns. And her beliefs. All while making her way to the top of the Hollywood food chain...on her own terms.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

Happy 4th of July, Richies! And welcome to "Rich and Weekly's 4th of July Celebrity BBQ,” where we'll be giving you the round-up on some of your favorite stars. Kelly Clarkson - someone whose BBQ we wouldn't mind crashing - has been making tons of headlines over whether she's set to step down from her Emmy-winning talk show. We'll be going over all speculation there. After that, we have all the “fireworks” from Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld's wedding. And it wouldn't be a proper 4th of July BBQ without some family drama. So we're bringing you the latest on Miley and the Cyrus crew. Wrapping up, we'll be going over JoJo Siwa's budding romance with former “Celebrity Big Brother UK” castmate, Chris Hughes.

Closing out another fabulous Pride Month, we're taking a look at someone who's always been a friend and ally to the LGBTQ+ community - Cyndi Lauper. Born in New York, in the early 50s, Cyndi feels out-of-step with her surroundings. Raised in a home with an abusive stepfather, she escapes and sets out on her own. But to do what? After failing in a series of unfulfilling odd jobs, Cyndi decides to follow her first love - music. After a shaky start with a couple of failed bands, Cyndi goes solo. Thanks to that one-of-a-kind voice of hers, and unique technicolor appearance (just in time for advent of MTV), Cyndi Lauper's singing career reaches the stratosphere. But life at the top of the record biz just isn't enough for her. She realizes there are way more important things to fight for - her integrity as an artist, and disenfranchised people everywhere. Turns out, these were the “true colors” of the girl who just wanted to have fun. In turn - she cemented her legacy forever.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

In Trump's tax bill, 60% of cuts go to the top 20% (income: $217K+). More than a third to top 5% ($460K+) Households earning less than $51K will see income drop next year. Top 0.1% will get an average boost of $390K. Time for one of my favorite episodes: my January 2010 conversation with Richard Wilkinson & Kate Pickett about their groundbreaking book, The Spirit Level. Based on 30 years of research, it makes clear that the more unequal a society is, the worse it is - in all sorts of dimension - for everybody – rich and poor alike. Worth a listen.
Are we about to say goodbye to yet another Hollywood couple? For weeks, we've heard rumors that Katy Perry and fiancé Orlando Bloom aren't living their “Teenage Dream” anymore. Now sources say that Orlando's excited to live la vida single. After that, we have the latest details on the shocking and tragic passing of TV chef, Anne Burrell, including what officials are saying about the pills they found in her home. And finally - wrapping things up with something much lighter - Anna Camp has found love with new girlfriend, Jade Whipkey.

Raised in a house that is nothing like the TV sitcom families she loves, Rosie O'Donnell has to grow up fast. She has to deal with an abusive father, and the heartbreak of losing her mom way too soon. But somehow, her grit, determination, and natural humor lands her on a comedy club stage when she's just a teen. After polishing her act on the road, Rosie gains national attention on the 80s TV talent show, “Star Search.” And she's off and running. After stealing scenes in “A League of Their Own,” “Sleepless in Seattle,” and “The Flintstones,” she revolutionizes daytime television with her own feel-good talk show and is dubbed “The Queen of Nice.” But never one afraid to speak her mind, Rosie goes on to voice her opinions on “The View,” which lands her in a very public battle with the current sitting President of the United States. Throughout her life, Rosie's always tried to stick up for what she feels is right, including LGBTQ+ rights.

The “Euphoria” actor made headlines back in April when he announced that he was diagnosed with ALS.

Continuing our celebration of Pride Month, today we've got another fabulous queer icon for you. Oscar-nominated actor Elliot Page has crammed a whole lot of life into his 38 years. After gaining traction in Canada as an accomplished child actor, Elliot makes the leap into the American mainstream with critically acclaimed performances in movies like “Hard Candy,” “Juno,” and “Inception.” But behind all that splashy Hollywood success, Elliot is hiding a big secret. One that could potentially derail his career. But eventually, he makes a huge, brave leap and comes out as a trans. Even though this bold announcement of his identity is not met with open arms everywhere - he does becomes a hero and advocate for the trans community.

Richies, we didn't see this coming. Blake Lively just scored a huge court win. She and her former “It Ends with Us” director/co-star Justin Baldoni have been in a bitter legal battle since January. But just this week, a judge dismissed Justin's multi-million dollar suit against Blake, husband Ryan Reynolds, and the New York Times. After we break down that legal decision, we're filling you in on the (maybe one-sided) feud between Broadway icons Audra McDonald and Patti LuPone…and how that beef maybe got some airtime on Sunday's Tony Awards.

Happy Pride Month, Richies! In honor of this month-long celebration of the LGBTQ+ community, we're highlighting three of Hollywood's most out and proud stars. First up, we've got the latest on Chappell Roan. She's no stranger to making headlines. And right now, lots of people are talking about the blunt question she asked fellow musician, Lorde! Up next, we've got Doechii. Recently, the “Anxiety” hit-maker made a name for herself as one of the brightest rising stars in the rap game. But now she's got a bad “rap” over her not-so-flattering Met Gala moment. And wrapping things up, we bring you New York theatre darling, Cole Escola. They're the Tony-nominated actor and writer of the Broadway smash, “Oh, Mary!” And on the heels of their double Tony noms, Cole gave a revealing interview to “CBS Sunday Morning.” As always, Richies, we hope you're all having a fabulous Pride Month, and are letting your freak flags fly!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Richies, for Pride Month we bring you a true hero to - and champion of - the queer community. A filmmaker who brings an oddball sensibility and counter-culture vibe to the mainstream. Director John Waters has been marching to the beat of his own drum since he was little boy, doing twisted puppet shows at birthday parties and drawing with black crayons. Born and raised in a Baltimore suburb, John knows early on that he's different. And he embraces it. His early films like “Pink Flamingos” are so deliberately gross and funny that they earn him the nickname “The Pope of Trash.” But behind the shock value is a real artist. He eases his way into the mainstream flicks like “Polyester” and then “Hairspray.” John Waters' lasting film legacy is to embrace and celebrate society's weirdos.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

A lot of the time, award shows can be fun, exciting, star-studded events. And sometimes...they're like this year's American Music Awards. First off, tons of the A-list nominees didn't even bother showing up. And then, for a couple of stars who did show up, things got weird onstage. Shaboozey gave his co-presenter Megan Moroney some serious side-eye that people are still talking about. After we dissect the AMAs, we have an update on Miley Cyrus. In a very revealing interview with Apple Music's Zane Lowe, she opens up about new music, sobriety, and the medical condition that makes singing a serious challenge. And to cap it all off, we have the latest on what Hugh Jackman's ex is saying about his “betrayal.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Richies, just in time for ""Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning"" - the last installment of the MI franchise - we bring you one of the most bankable stars in the world, Tom Cruise. As a boy, he's bullied because of his height, and faces learning difficulties at school. But that was then and this is now. Thanks to roles in “Risky Business,” “Top Gun,” “A Few Good Men,” and the money-printing “Mission: Impossible” franchise, Tom has become not only an enormous action star, but one of Hollywood's most surefire leading men. And one of its most controversial. Who could forget the image of him jumping up and down on Oprah's couch after falling for Katie Holmes? Or when the “War of the Worlds” star and public face of Scientology stirs the pot on “Today,"" criticizing Brooke Shields for using medication to treat postpartum depression. (A major no-no according to Tom's church.) There's no questioning Tom's mega-star status - or his extremely polarizing views.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

Richies, this week's stories feature some familiar faces around here. First up, we'll fill you in on everything that's going on at Diddy's trial. Cassie Ventura - the first woman to break her silence on Diddy - has taken the stand against him. And she's revealed more horrifying details about his abuse during their relationship. After that, the Biebers are making headlines again. This time, about what Hailey's saying in Vogue about her life-threatening ordeal. We're also getting into the weird “shout out” Justin gave her after she became Vogue's latest cover girl. And because it just wouldn't be “Rich and Weekly” without some mention of Blake Lively… Six of her former employees spoke to The Daily Mail. And let's just say, they won't be giving her a World's Best Boss mug anytime soon.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Happy Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, Richies! In light of AAPI Month, we have a story about someone who has given “comeback” a whole new meaning. After fleeing North Vietnam as a child with his family, Ke Huy Quan turns to acting and is immediately cast in “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” and then “The Goonies.” He seems to be on a rocket to stardom. But then, in an industry that's unfair to non-white actors, the acting roles dry up and he can't find work. So he pivots and turns to stunt coordinating. But 30 years later, just when he thinks he'll never act again, he's cast in “Everything Everywhere All at Once” and everything changes. Again. He wins an Oscar. And 50-year-old Ke is a star all over again.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

In honor of Mother's Day, we're celebrating a mother-daughter duo unlike any other - Debbie Reynolds and Carrie Fisher. While these two “unsinkable” stars seemingly look - on the surface - like they couldn't have been more different, they were a lot more alike than they liked to admit. Debbie and Carrie both became movie stars at the tender age of 20. And individually, they also endured a lot - all in the unforgiving glare of the Hollywood spotlight. There were high profile divorces, cheating scandals, drug problems, and mental health issues. But they both handled it with unflinching honesty and unfailing humor.

Strike a pose, Richies! We've got all the good stuff from Monday night's Met Gala. A-listers like Diana Ross and Colman Domingo dropped jaws on the blue carpet. But the real showstopper was Rihanna's new accessory…a baby bump! After we give you all of the RiRi surprise pregnancy deets, we have a scary story out of Rio. After wowing a crowd of millions with a performance in Brazil, Lady Gaga found out that local authorities foiled a potential bomb threat just hours before she took the stage! And wrapping things up, we have disturbing allegations against music legend Smokey Robinson. Four women who say they worked for the “Tracks of My Tears” singer have filed a joint lawsuit, accusing him of sexual assault. And they say Smokey's wife added to their torment. Richies, as always, there's lots to get to. But we've got you covered.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Even in the face of unimaginable tragedy and grief, Martin Short has always kept his sense of humor. As a young man, he channels three devastating personal losses into becoming a performing dynamo. Instead of being defined by these tragedies, he's emboldened to go out and pursue his acting dreams in Toronto in the 70s. The Canadian city is a hotbed of future comedy icons like Eugene Levy, Catherine O'Hara, and Gilda Radner. And Martin fits right in. It starts with a production of “Godspell,” and Martin never looks back. It takes him to stardom on TV, stage, and the big screen. And now, with “Only Murders in the Building,” a bromance with Steve Martin, and a rumored romance with Meryl Streep, this triple-threat Emmy winner is as hot as ever. And living proof that with grit, determination, and a killer sense of humor, you can survive anything.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

It looks like reality TV is getting very real! After wrapping up her stint on “Celebrity Big Brother UK,” JoJo Siwa's making all kinds of headlines. JoJo - who's been openly gay for a while - had an “aha” moment in front of CBBUK cameras when she realized she now identifies as queer. Great for JoJo. Not so great for JoJo's partner Kath Ebb - who claims JoJo dumped them the night of the CBBUK wrap party! And now there's all kinds of speculation that things are getting hot and heavy between the “Karma” singer and fellow “Big Brother” castmate, Chris Hughes. Next up - what the hell happened during Bill Belichick's “CBS Sunday Morning” interview? We'll get you caught up on that plus what people are saying about his MUCH younger girlfriend? And finally, we've got the latest on Katy Perry. People have been coming down hard on her since her Blue Origin Uber trip to space. And now, for the first time, Katy's opening up about the backlash.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Almost 60 years after Judy Garland's tragic death, she still remains one of Hollywood's most fascinating (and heartbreaking) talents. As a girl, her powerful voice catches the attention of legendary movie producer, Louis B. Mayer, and she's on her way. Thanks to her iconic role in “The Wizard of Oz,” Judy cements herself as one of the world's biggest and brightest stars. But a steady cocktail of uppers and downers as a youngster - prescribed by doctors at MGM - will haunt the “Over the Rainbow” singer for the rest of her way-too-short life. But despite her untimely death, Judy's legacy lives on.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

Concern is growing about Justin Bieber's well-being. Over the weekend, the “Baby” singer looked like he was having the time of his life, ripping into a joint in a crowd at Coachella. But he was smoking up next to his 15-year-old brother, and his wife Hailey Bieber looked none-too-pleased. And if that's not enough Biebs drama for you, a source says an old friend of Justin's is worried about the church “cult” he's in. Then we've got a double dose of love stories. First off, we've got all the details on Kristen Stewart's LA wedding. And then the latest on Elizabeth Hurley's “achy breaky” romance with…Billy Ray Cyrus?!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Born in New Orleans, young Tyler Perry is forced to contend with all sorts of abuse. Some is at the hands of his explosive and alcoholic father, as well as neighbors and people he thought he could trust. Eventually, he escapes to Atlanta to pursue his dreams of writing and performing - while working countless menial jobs and living in his car along the way. But in 1998, when his lead actress doesn't show up to perform in his play, he rewrites the entire show overnight - with his character (Madea) now the lead. And just like that - everything changes. Tyler strikes gold - tapping into an audience that, up until then - had been ignored by Hollywood. Madea makes Tyler an instant star, and sets him on a course to become one of the most powerful and influential figures in entertainment.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

Houston, we have a girl power problem. More specifically, a rich celebrity girl problem. On Monday, Katy Perry and Gayle King blasted off into outer space on the latest Blue Origin rocket. And ever since they reentered the earth's atmosphere, celebrities are firing on all cylinders. Olivia Munn, Olivia Wilde, and Emily Ratajkowski have all openly criticized the launch, accusing everyone onboard for girlbossing a little too close to the sun. Up next, we have the latest on “The White Lotus” star, Aimee Lou Wood. She made headlines last week over a rumored feud with co-star Walton Goggins. Now, she's clapping back at “Saturday Night Live's” spoof of her physical appearance. And it's been a minute since our last “It Ends with Us” update. So we're catching you up on the two “It Ends with Us” players who are speaking up in defense of Justin Baldoni and trash talking Blake Lively!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Whoopi Goldberg has had a life. And then some. Long before she became a Hollywood icon (and the first Black woman to achieve EGOT status), she struggles with substance abuse, trouble at school, and teenage pregnancy. And then she becomes a mom at just 17. But her unique comedy voice captures the attention of legendary writer/director Mike Nichols who sees something special in her. He brings her to Broadway, where she becomes the toast of the town, and the trajectory of her life is completely altered. What follows next for Whoopi is a career that breaks boundaries and records, and even gets her blacklisted in Hollywood.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

At 2:30AM on Thanksgiving night 2009, Tiger Woods, one of the most famous athletes in the world, drove his car into a tree outside his neighbor's house. This bizarre accident set off a chain of events that exposed Tiger's secret affairs to the world and wound up wrecking more than his Escalade: It wrecked his marriage, and almost totaled his career.

Richies, Russell Brand's landed himself in hot water. We know, shocking right? Right on “brand” for the “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” star, he's facing a variety of new charges - including sexual assault - from four women in the UK. And then there are the charges against Russell from a woman on this side of the pond. We'll give you all the details. Then we have all the juicy pulls from Meghan Markle's new podcast. Including the life threatening postpartum diagnosis the “Confessions of a Female Founder” host endured. And finally, we have the latest on those feud rumors between “The White Lotus” stars, Aimee Lou Wood and Walton Goggins. Not too long ago, they were singing each others' praises. But now online sleuths are convinced that their on-screen drama has moved off-screen.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Christina Applegate has always had a dark sense of humor. And she leans on it big time to deal with a series of enormous obstacles and challenges. As a child star-turned-household name (thanks to 11 seasons on “Married...with Children”) Christina avoids the pitfalls of other kid actors and becomes one of Hollywood's leading ladies of comedy. She's riding high on the heels of an Emmy-winning turn on “Friends,” and a successful string of movies (“Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy,” “Vacation”). But when she begins to develop serious and mysterious symptoms on the set of her Netflix show, “Dead to Me,” Christina's health takes a devastating turn. And her dark sense of humor is put to the test like never before.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

Richies, there's a lot to get into this week. If you watched “Saturday Night Live” over the weekend, you know all about musical guest Morgan Wallen's awkward goodbye. He bolted off stage while the cameras were still rolling. And now, “SNL” vet Kenan Thompson is sharing how he feels about Morgan's controversial departure. After that, we'll get into all the rumors swirling around Sydney Sweeney and her newly called-off engagement. (And how her “Anyone but You” co-star, Glen Powell, might factor in!) And wrapping up today's episode, we have a fitting tribute to a star we lost way too soon - Val Kilmer.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
As a kid in Australia, Margot Robbie knows she wants to be a movie star, but doesn't think it's possible. But after wowing audiences with her star turn (and convincing Brooklyn accent) in Martin Scorsese's “The Wolf of Wall Street,” the Aussie is well on her way. And she flips her own script by developing material for herself, like 2017's “I, Tonya,” which scores her an Oscar nomination. And Margot doesn't stop there. She decides to tackle a project that's so iffy it's already been passed over by some of Hollywood's biggest leading ladies. She develops, produces and stars in “Barbie.” It's a smash and cultural phenomenon that cements Margot's place at the top of the Hollywood food chain.

Love is in the air, Richies! Or at least it is for Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco. On Jay Shetty's “On Purpose” podcast - where they plugged their new album “I Said I Love You First” - they pulled the curtain back on their relationship like never before. We've got all the details! Then, pivoting from two people in love to a guy who hasn't had much luck in the love department - we've got Ben Affleck. Ben's opening up to GQ about how he's doing in the aftermath of his divorce from Jennifer Lopez. And speaking of the male half of Bennifer 2.0, we've got an update on Ben's ex-flame, Gwyneth Paltrow. She's making headlines for "shading" Nikki Glaser over trying to get with Ben back when they were on Raya. Not only that, but the Goop founder's also making headlines over her rumored beef with Meghan Markle.

Salma Hayek has always believed in her destiny. After becoming a telenovela superstar in her native Mexico, she ditches fame and fortune in her own country, and leaves it behind her for the mere chance of making it in Hollywood. Once she lands in LA, however, it's clear to her that success in the US will be a challenging, uphill battle. She starts small, and has to navigate the tricky waters of profiling and stereotyping - not to mention a potentially career-derailing experience with Harvey Weinstein. But she endures. And wins. Regardless of what is thrown at this Oscar-nominated actor, one thing is clear - she won't let anything stand between her and her destiny.

Tina Fey sure does wear the (Bossy)pants. As she navigates the treacherous, male dominated waters of the comedy world, Tina quickly ascends up the ranks at the legendary (and notoriously cutthroat) comedy institution, “Saturday Night Live.” But that's not enough for this self-proclaimed former theater nerd and Sarah Palin lookalike. After reaching a pinnacle that most performers can only dream of, and making history at SNL, she leaves. And follows up her success there with a string of successful TV shows (“30 Rock,” “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt”) and movies (“Baby Mama,” “Mean Girls”) that establish her as one of Hollywood's true comedy forces.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

Most people can't weather the storm that is the music industry. But Stevie Nicks isn't most people. She breaks onto the scene with musical and romantic partner, Lindsey Buckingham. They make beautiful music in and out of the recording studio, and make a life-altering move in 1974 when they join British rock group, Fleetwood Mac. Stevie's on top of the world as she swaps out tiny gigs in coffee houses for massive concerts in sold-out stadiums. But then, there are legendary clashes within the band - which include her and Lindsay. After a messy breakup - and a string of diss tracks they fire off at each other - Stevie goes solo. And the “Edge of Seventeen” hitmaker proves that thunder really does only happen when it's raining. And what rains down on her is the devastating loss of her best friend, and a decades-long battle with drugs, which almost kills her. But this ""Queen of Rock 'n Roll"" is still standing, and living her “dreams.”You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

It's Women's History Month, Richies! In honor of that, we have the queen herself, Angela Bassett. She's been setting fire to the silver screen ever since she portrayed Tina Turner in “What's Love Got to Do with It.” But her life - both in front of and behind the camera - has been chock-full of obstacles, disappointments, struggles, and surprises. (Like finding out her boyfriend's a cheater on national television.) But none of it slows Angela down. With a slew of great film roles - not to mention an Oscar and an Emmy - she's always proving that Angela Bassett really did do “the thing!”You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

Born in Mexico City and raised in Kenya, Lupita Nyong'o has had what you could call an unconventional life. After experiencing serious political unrest in Nairobi at a very young age, Lupita packs her bags and heads to the Big Apple to pursue her dreams of becoming an actor. Sure, she's got the skills to make it. But a lot of the time and talent is just not enough. And what Lupita struggles with in Hollywood goes far beyond the trials of most actors-for-hire trying to score their next gig. Lupita wages a far more intense and deeply personal battle - how to maintain her own identity in an industry that wants to put her in a box.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

As we continue to honor impactful artists during Black History Month, we turn to a legitimate legend - Sidney Poitier. Very few people have bucked as many odds as he did. After almost dying at birth, and growing up in near-poverty, Sidney immigrates to the US from from the Bahamas as a boy. Once there, he deals with racism, death threats, homelessness, and an industry that wants nothing to do with him. But he forges ahead, refusing to quit, and makes history with an Oscar win that opens the door - not only for Black people in Hollywood - but all over the world.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.
