    “You know I come here every day and I try to do the best that I can for you. I appreciate you watching, but even after all of these years, it’s still work and effort put in for the hour that I am out here with you,” she shared in the Monday episode of her daytime talk show. “I guess every day is not perfect, but I am not a perfectionist. I am not perfect, but I do appreciate you putting in effort to watch us.”
    Wendy continued, “I love entertaining you and it’s not easy. It is not easy. You’re a tough crowd.”

    The TV personality previously raised people’s eyebrows after she looked distraught last week. The host was seen losing focus mid-conversation in addition to pausing awkwardly several times which prompted her producer, Norman Baker, to try to keep the conversation on track. The episode also saw Wendy calling Adele “Ho-dele” before doing some random stuff such as unwrapping a hard candy only to put it back down and cutting off her own sentence to stand up and show off her outfit.
    DJ Boof, who used to work with Wendy on the show, also shared his thoughts on her behavior, alluding that many of her staff members had tried to get her some help but she wouldn’t listen to them. “Y’all have no idea what’s really going on and everyone there is afraid to speak up because they don’t wanna lose their jobs.. this is going to play out bad.. I feel sorry for the workers and victims. Have a blessed day,” DJ Boof told a fan on Instagram on Sunday.
    Back in March 2019, Wendy opened up about her struggle with drugs that made her decide to live in a sober house with a 24-hour coach. “You know I’ve had a struggle with cocaine in my past. I never went to a place to get the treatment. I don’t know how, except God was sitting on my shoulder and I just stopped,” she said at the time.
    She also took some moments off of the show due to Graves’ disease earlier this year. “Recently, Wendy has been dealing with symptoms from her Graves’ disease which is causing fatigue,” read the statement released on Monday, May 18. “In consultation with her doctor and as a precautionary measure, she will be taking some time off as she continues to receive treatment. We look forward to welcoming Wendy back soon and continuing the ‘[email protected]’ shows. More updates on a return date will follow.”
    That marked the second time for Wendy to take a hiatus from the show due to Graves’ disease. Back in 2018, she told her audience that she would be taking a 3-week hiatus to focus on her health after being diagnosed with Graves’ disease in addition to her hyperthyroidism.

    '90 Day Fiance' Star Ariela Refuses to Circumcise Son: 'I Don't Feel Good About It'

    Instagram

    Explaining why she doesn’t want to circumcise her son with Biniyam Shibre, the reality TV star says, ‘I don’t want him to hate me when he’s older because he thinks that I mutilated him or something.’

    Oct 27, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Ariela Weinberg had second thoughts in regards to her son’s circumcision. Although she and her partner Biniyam Shibre had previously agreed to circumcise their newborn Aviel Biniyam, the “90 Day Fiance” star in the end made the call to abort the procedure, reasoning that she did not “feel good about it.”
    The Sunday, October 25 episode of “90 Day Fiance: The Other Way” saw the TV personality putting a stop to her son’s circumcision much to the disappointment of her partner. In a confessional, she explained her move, “I don’t want him to hate me when he’s older because he thinks that I mutilated him or something. I don’t feel good about it.”
    “I don’t know, I knew he was always going to be circumcised, but I feel like I’m taking away a choice for him in his life,” the 28-year-old mother additionally shared her thought on her last-minute decision against the procedure. “This is his body. He should be able to decide what he wants to do with it.”
    Though so, Ariela acknowledged that her beau and her family might not be pleased with what she had done. “I know that there’s no way Biniyam would not let me do this and certain people in my family would not agree with that, so I feel a lot of pressure to do it as well,” she admitted.

    In the episode, Ariela’s partner Biniyam initially tried to convince the new mother that circumcision would be “good” for their baby boy. “It is good for him, for [the] baby now, if you cut him,” the Ethiopian native argued. “He doesn’t feel, like, too much.”
    Learning that Ariele stood firm with her decision, Biniyam relented and said, “Do whatever you want.” After she left the hospital with their baby, the 29-year-old expressed his irritation over his partner’s choice. In his confessional, he stated, “This is how it’s done, so I don’t know why she is stressed.”

    Ariele and Biniyam welcomed Aviel in December 2019. While the baby is the TV personality’s first child, he is her boyfriend’s second child. Biniyam is also a father to a son named Simon, whom he shared with ex-wife Bria.

    Tom Holland 'Breaks' His 'Spider-Man 3' Script iPad

    Sony Pictures

    The Peter Parker depicter, who has arrived in Atlanta to film the ‘Spider-Man: Far From Home’ sequel, reveals the iPad he’s just received that contains the movie script, but promises that he won’t spoil it.

    Oct 27, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Tom Holland in real life can be as destructive as the villains in his Spider-Man movies are. The actor, who will soon begin filming “Spider-Man 3” in Atlanta, revealed an iPad that he’s just received and contains the script of the film, but he almost had no chance to learn his lines.
    On Monday, October 26, the 24-year-old actor took to Instagram Stories to share yet another update from the pre-production of the “Spider-Man: Far From Home” sequel. “So I just got home, I’m in Atlanta, and I’ve just been delivered a package,” he said in the video as he dressed casually in a plain white T-shirt and blue jeans.
    After walking across the room, he sat on a couch and showed his iPad. “That package is an iPad, and on that iPad is a script, and that script is ‘Spider-Man 3’. So I’m about to find out what I’m going to be doing for the next five months,” he teased his fans.
    While he in the past has had trouble keeping his mouth shut about his Marvel projects, he swore that he wouldn’t make the same mistake. “I’m not gonna tell you anything about it because I’ve learned my lesson,” so he claimed.
    “But, uhm… I’m so…,” Holland said, before he surprised himself as he appeared to do some damage to his “Spider-Man 3” iPad. “Oh s**t. I just broke this iPad,” he cussed out as he showed the device’s broken case. “Umm, okay, I’m going to read this now and I can’t wait. I’ll speak to you all soon,” he signed off.

    Holland landed in Atlanta on Sunday after completing the filming of Warner Bros. movie “Uncharted”. He shared on his Instagram Stories a video of himself arriving at the airport, saying, “We just landed in Atlanta. And uh…it’s time for ‘Spider-Man 3′. Let’s go!”

    His co-stars Zendaya Coleman and Jacob Batalon have also been spotted in the city to begin filming the upcoming Spider-Man movie.
    “Spider-Man 3” has Sam Raimi, who helmed the original “Spider-Man” trilogy starring Tobey Maguire, on board as director. Jamie Foxx let it slip that he will reprise his “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” role as Electro, while Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange is also reported to appear in the film.
    Meanwhile, regarding reports that Maguire and Andrew Garfield will return as the web-crawler in the upcoming Marvel movie, a rep for the studio told ET Canada earlier this month, “Those rumored castings are not confirmed.”
    The third installment of Marvel-Sony’s “Spider-Man” franchise is slated for December 17, 2021 release.

    Oct 27, 2020

Ahead of Villains Night on “Dancing with the Stars”, the pro-dancer suffered head injury following a fall during which she hit her head on the ballroom floor, but she is said to be “on the mend.”
    On how the accident happened, an exclusive video obtained by PEOPLE unraveled that Cheryl and AJ were practicing on the ballroom floor on Sunday, October 25. When the 36-year-old dancer was running backward, however, she lost her footing and fell on her back with her head hitting the floor. “It happened so fast, I just heard her head hit the floor,” her dancing partner recalled.
    In the wake of the accident, PEOPLE reported that a medic was called to the scene and Cherly got examined. She was then advised to take the rest of the day off. At the time, it was not clear whether she would be able to perform in the Monday, October 26 episode of the dancing competition show.
    Despite the unfortunate event, Cheryl confirmed via Instagram that she would still get on the dance floor. “Yesterday, I took a hard fall while rehearsing for #VillainsNight. Even though AJ kills me at the end of this Tango, this wasn’t part of the routine. It’s one of those things that can happen in a split second,” she kicked off her social media message.
