Ever heard the saying, “Mess with the bull, and you’re bound to get the horns”? It’s not every day that you come across someone who can stand tall in the face of a towering figure like Donald Trump, but Gal Gadot is no ordinary person.

During an appearance on The Late Late Show With James Corden, Gadot made it crystal clear that Trump’s bravado didn’t intimidate her one bit. And why would it? This is the woman who not only conquered beauty pageants—winning Miss Israel in 2004 and competing in Miss Universe—but also carries the might of a Wonder Woman, forged through military training and the art of Krav Maga.

"Wicked," released with enough green and pink merchandising to choke a horse, has been one of the rare musical extravaganzas to cross over from an audience of theater enthusiasts into the mainstream. Based on the popular Broadway musical starring Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth (which in turn was based on a Gregory Maguire novel of the same name), "Wicked" tells the origin story of the Wicked Witch of the West from "The Wizard of Oz." Elphaba ends up becoming roommates with Glinda (Ariana Grande as the future good witch) while they're both studying magic at university. An unlikely friendship blossoms between the two total opposites -- until it's suddenly tested by the lure of the Wizard and his Emerald City. 

"Wicked" was a smash hit, earning over $700 million at the box office and 10 Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, Best Actress (Erivo), and Best Supporting Actress (Grande). It ultimately won...

Hollywood celebrities have often compared fame to a rollercoaster ride—one moment, you’re at the peak of stardom, and the next moment, you’ve become a punching bag among fans. So today, we have a list of 10 celebrities who will be able to relate to this sentiment. After all, they once ruled the industry only to lose it over time.

Neck-deep in controversies, the wrath of cancel culture overturned their career. And sadly, unlike Kanye West and J.K. Rowling, who have repeatedly weathered the storm of cancel culture, these stars weren’t so lucky. From legal troubles to toxic behavior and shocking allegations, these 10 stars faced a brutal downfall.

Seinfeld star and comedy legend Jason Alexander considers himself a “lucky man” for having been married to his dear wife Daena Title for so many decades, but luck has nothing to do with it — sometimes, you just need to splurge on the expensive wedding invitations.

Despite his acclaimed performance playing the living embodiment every selfish, shameless and immature impulse that the male mind can produce, the man who once was George Costanza has shown ample ability to self-reflect and self-correct, showing that Seinfeld’s “no hugging, no learning” rule didn’t extend to its actors. Any time an A-list celebrity like Alexander manages to stay married for more than a few months, they demonstrate an unusual level of emotional intelligence for a member of the actor class, and, naturally, questions about how they managed to pull off a happy marriage will come at them from perplexed press and hapless peers alike.

John Mulaney officially returned to late night this week. After debuting “Everybody’s in LA” during Netflix’s comedy festival last year, the comedian debuted the first installment of his new 12-episode show on Wednesday night.

The show even utilizes its guests in the same way, combining celebrities with industry experts for a free-wheeling conversation. Maybe it’s because of the fourth-wall-breaking clipboard in his hands, but “Everybody’s Live” does feel like a more self-assured version of its predecessor.

Here’s what Mulaney’s new show took from its predecessor and what it will likely continue to explore in the weeks to come.

The Lord of the Rings actor Sean Astin has fallen in and out of the industry’s radar ever since his debut as a child actor. He may be most famously known for playing the hobbit Samwise Gamgee in Peter Jackson’s live-action Lotr trilogy, but Astin’s career is far more enduring and remarkable than that.

Despite being a child star, Astin never faded out of the industry, instead building a career that was not only impressive but sustainable as well. From playing Mikey Walsh in The Goonies (1985) to the titular character in Rudy (1993), the charming actor has resurfaced once more after his Lotr era to star in two wildly popular projects for modern fans: Stranger Things and A Nonsense Christmas With Sabrina Carpenter.

While both played Elves, the two were not paired together in the film. Tyler’s Arwen was betrothed to Viggo Mortensen’s Aragorn while Legolas was part of the Fellowship of the Ring.

However, after years of speculation, Liv Tyler shut down the rumors of dating the Pirates of the Caribbean star, stating that she was engaged to her first husband at the time. Appearing in an interview, Tyler addressed the rumors and mentioned that she was off-market but did admit in passing that they flirted.

A fun new comedy movie is on its way as the new trailer for Sour Party—the award-winning film from creative duo Amanda and Michael Drexton—teases a fresh twist on the buddy comedy genre.

In a new trailer revealed by Flickering Myth, the irreverent buddy comedy dives into the chaotic lives of two broke 30-something women, determined to reclaim their dignity (and finances) as they navigate the pitfalls of Los Angeles. Audiences can look forward to surprising appearances from an iconic Goonies, Gremlins and Stand By Me alum and a comedic musician known for Pitch Perfect and his role as musical director of The Late Late Show with James Corden. Brimming with satirical wit and wild encounters, Sour Party delivers a sharply feminist twist on a traditionally male-dominated genre, setting the stage for one outrageous ride through friendship, family pressure, and ill-advised get-rich-quick schemes.
