Children of the 1980s understand how deeply weird it is that Donald Trump is now considered a politician. 40 years ago, Trump was a clownish pop culture figure more than anything. He was often described as a real estate mogul in the press, but he was more often parodied on sitcoms and in comic strips as the world's worst millionaire, a caricature of a pseudo-celebrity, and the central symbol of Ronald Reagan's aggressively wicked yuppie class. He was a whimsical punchline more than he was a respected businessman and his financial failures were just as notorious as his successes. I personally recall a joke from Mad Magazine that said Trump was working on a book about his personal success ... but that he was stuck on Chapter 11.

Trump served as the template for multiple villains in other media, including Gordon Gekko from "Wall Street," C. Montgomery Burns from "The Simpsons," King Koopa in "Super Mario Bros,...

Donald Trump, even after taking on the new role of President of the United States in 2016, still makes big Hollywood bucks.

The president’s financial disclosure report, released late Friday, broke down his various income streams for 2019. While the document displayed a majority of income coming in from his numerous properties including his Mar-a-Lago resort, it also showed substantial earnings from Hollywood work.

According to the report, the president received around $1.6 million, $1,627,255 to be exact; for production revenue from Trump Productions LLC which produced both NBC’s The Apprentice and Celebrity Apprentice. Also adding to his Hollywood revenue is his SAG-AFTRA pension, bringing him more than $86,500 in additional income for the 2019 financial year. The report however, lists the two guilds and their respective payments to Trump separately.

Hollywood guild pensions and royalties for shows he produced and starred in, however aren’t the only sources of Hollywood income for 45. Trump also received royalty money,...

The Little Rascals will go down in history as one of our all-time favorite childhood movies. The 1994 flick showed us the "seriousness" of young love as we watched Alfalfa (Bug Hall) attempt to woo Darla (Brittany Ashton Holmes) while his he-man-woman-hating friends did everything they could to sabotage their romance.  The other obstacle he faced was none other than Waldo Aloysius Johnston III. The snooty, musically-talented anti-hero was played by Blake McIver Ewing whose perfectly styled hair gave Alfalfa and his terrible cowlick quite the competition in winning over Darla's affection. But where is Waldo now? Ewing is 32 years old and living in Los Angeles, and...

It’s an unexpected Bravo crossover on this week’s all-new episode of Below Deck, and Et has your exclusive first look.

Chief stew Kate Chastain and chef Ben Robinson have a major blow up in the galley, and it’s so loud that the charter guests can hear it. And get this -- those guests just so happen to be Emerson Collins and Blake McIver from Bravo’s The People’s Couch!

Watch: Take a Tour of Below Deck’s Latest Yacht

The fight itself is pretty ridiculous and kind of confusing. Basically, Kate and Ben are at odds over meal times for what feels like the 100th time this season. Upstairs, Emerson and Blake sit together, sipping champagne as they listen in on the argument. Kate and Ben become so loud that Captain Lee Rosbach calls them out and asks them to keep it down.

“This is so embarrassing,” Kate confesses...

Ten years after the now-classic comedy hit theaters, Rachel McAdams, Amanda Seyfried, Lacey Chabert, Lindsay Lohan and Tina Fey posed for a celebratory Entertainment Weekly magazine photo shoot. And the fab five weren’t the only cast members of Mean Girls to hang in 2014 -- Amy Poehler and Daniel Franzese helped Lizzy Caplan celebrate her birthday and an Emmy nom at Los Angeles’ Chateau Marmont back in August.

Looking to get a little more creative for its 20th anniversary, the cast of The Little Rascals reunited in order to re-create the film's original poster, complete with hilarious facial expressions. It's #Rascals20th day! Hooray! pic.twitter.com/ZNINpgTIhp — Blake McIver (@BlakeMcIver) September 3, 2014 When The Little Rascals hit theaters in 1994, it was around the fourth incarnation of the popular family-friendly franchise (which first debuted in 1932) about a group of neighborhood kids and their various misadventures. The film didn't exactly light up the box office (it finished with around $52 million) and it didn't launch any sequels, but you definitely remember its colorful poster. The Little Rascals returned once again this year...

Little no longer! This week, the cast of the 1994 kids' movie The Little Rascals gave the world a lesson in how to revel in nostalgia. In addition to making a spot-on recreation of the film's original poster, the entire cast showed up and looked happy doing it.

It was one of the most beloved children’s movies of the 1990s and “Little Rascals” just turned an unbelievable 20 years old.

The team over at 22 Vision put together a reunion for the original cast to see where they’ve been and what they’ve been up to since their silver screen moment of glory.

From Ross Bagley (Buckwheat), to Zac Mabry (Porky), Brittany Ashton Holmes (Darla), Travis Tedford (Spanky), Kevin Jamal Woods (Stymie), Blake McIver Ewing (Waldo) and Bug Hall (Alfalfa), it sounds like the whole crew has gone on to do great things, including acting, screenwriting, music, family expansion, and pursuing higher education.

Blake McIver, known for playing Derek, Michelle’s friend on Full House as a child, is making name for himself again working on his own music and a Bravo TV series — ane even as a go-go dancer.

Since Full House, McIver went on to finish high school and college, where he ran into financial troubles. For McIver, go-go dancing seemed like a good solution. “What started as sort of a joke among my friends when we were out like at the clubs just joking about it, about a month later I was like, 'Well, I could actually do this,’” McIver told uInterview exclusively.

But it was the go-go dancing that gave McIver the resources to develop his own album, The Time Manipulator. “What I did is I took all of that money and banked it into the album and that’s why I was able to make the album. So...

Kevin Zegers has joined the cast of Gracepoint, Fox’s remake of Broadchurch. The Transamerica and Gossip Girl hottie will play the young reporter who dives into the murder at the core of the series. I hope that turns out to be a key role in the remake, U.S. remakes of UK shows work well well when they deal with the differences between the two cultures. While Broadchurch dealt with UK tabloids, I hope Gracepoint takes on TV reporters who get big audiences from sensational coverage of violent crime.
