    Michelle Obama Teams Up With Netflix to Turn 'Becoming' Book Tour Into Documentary

    Instagram

    Directed by Nadia Hallgren, this documentary project follows the former First Lady as she toured 34 cities throughout the U.S. to promote her bestselling memoir in 2018.
    Apr 28, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Barack and Michelle Obama have unveiled their latest documentary project for Netflix, which highlights the former First Lady’s “Becoming” book tour.
    The film follows the 56-year-old as she toured 34 cities throughout the U.S. to promote her bestselling memoir in 2018, and it will be released as part of a deal Michelle and the former President signed with bosses at the streaming service under their company banner, High Ground Productions.
    “Those months I spent travelling – meeting and connecting with people in cities across the globe – drove home the idea that what we share in common is deep and real and can’t be messed with,” Michelle said in a statement. “In groups large and small, young and old, unique and united, we came together and shared stories, filling those spaces with our joys, worries, and dreams.”
    “We processed the past and imagined a better future. In talking about the idea of ‘becoming’, many of us dared to say our hopes out loud. I treasure the memories and that sense of connection now more than ever, as we struggle together to weather this pandemic, as we care for our loved ones, tend to our communities, and try to keep up with work and school while coping with huge amounts of loss, confusion, and uncertainty.”

    Directed by Nadia Hallgren, “Becoming (2020)” will debut on 6 May. The release follows the pair’s first film as producers, “American Factory”, which won the Best Documentary Feature Oscar earlier this year.

    NeNe Leakes on Walking Off 'RHOA' Virtual Reunion: I'm Staying True to Who I Am

    Instagram

    This arrives after NeNe allegedly decides to walk off the filming after the Bravo reality TV star’s former friend Yovanna Momplaisir spills the tea against her about the infamous ‘SnakeGate’.
    Apr 28, 2020
    AceShowbiz – NeNe Leakes has confirmed the rumors about her walking off during filming for “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” season 12 virtual reunion. The Bravo personality addressed the matter in a new YouTube video in which she calmly confirmed, “Yes I walked off. Yes I walked off.”
    Insisting that she “didn’t regret a thing,” NeNe continued saying, “I would do it again, and again, and again. Lots of things I do, I don’t always regret them because everything is a lesson to me. Also I’m the kind of person that act on how I feel and I’m true to who I am. I always want to be very true to who I am. I’ve never been thirsty.”
    According to reports, NeNe decided to walk off the filming after her former friend Yovanna Momplaisir spilled the tea against her about the infamous “SnakeGate” in which Yovanna was said to be having an audio recording of Cynthia Bailey allegedly badmouthing her co-star NeNe during an interview. However, during the taping, which took place on April 23, Yovanna confessed that she never actually had the file.
    Additionally, Yovanna said it was all a ploy NeNe made to create a storyline. She allegedly mentioned that she decided to go along with her friend’s plan because she thought it would help her become a full-time member instead of a friend.
    That led to an online beef between Yovanna and NeNe as they were trading insults on Instagram. “What I posted last night was responses to some things that NeNe was posting,” the Bravo star shared in an interview on Sunday, April 26. “She has since deleted the things that she posted on social media and it’s just funny that these are things that she did not come to the reunion with. In fact, my entire segment with her she chose to leave and not address anything. So, it’s just strange, because she should have she should have planned her case where she’s paid to.”
    “You guys are gonna have to watch the reunion. Everything is laid out there. Every single thing is laid out there,” she added about the “SnakeGate”. Yovanna also added that she wasn’t afraid of NeNe. “Absolutely not,” she said. “She met her match. She underestimated the wrong one.”

    Lindsay Lohan Proposes Zoom Discussion With Former 'Mean Girls' Co-Stars for Potential Sequel

    Paramount Pictures

    The actress portraying Cady Heron in the hit 2004 film makes the suggestion in response to Rachel McAdams’ recent comments that she would be open to playing Regina George once again.
    Apr 27, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Lindsay Lohan is planning a Zoom call with her former “Mean Girls” co-stars in the hope of discussing a potential sequel.
    The star recently made her long-awaited musical comeback with new single “Back to Me”, and she’s since told Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper she’d love a big screen return too – especially if it means reprising her iconic 2004 movie role as Cady Heron.
    “Of course, I would say yes,” the 33-year-old said. “To come back with a movie like that would be my dream, to be honest, because I haven’t done one in so long. That would be my ultimate.”
    Referencing recent comments by “Mean Girls” co-star Rachel McAdams, who said she’d be open to playing Regina George again, Lindsay insisted she could convince the others to return as well.
    “I think if I talked to Amanda (Seyfried) and I talked to Lacey (Chabert) and we kind of all could have a chat together… maybe we should do a Zoom call,” she said, referring to the popular video conferencing app.
    Meanwhile, another “Mean Girls” movie is already in the works – Tina Fey, who starred as teacher Ms. Norbury in the original film, is taking the franchise back to the big screen for a new project based on the Broadway musical version.
    While casting and release details remain under wraps, the news comes ahead of the “Mean Girls” musical’s move to London’s West End in the spring of 2021, three years after it opened on Broadway.

    Robert Pattinson Not Relaxing Amid COVID-19 Lockdown to Ensure He Stays Fit for 'The Batman'

    Warner Bros.

    The actor best known for his portrayal as Edward Cullen in ‘Twilight’ is said to have difficulties in maintaining his figure since coronavirus put the production of his upcoming movie on indefinite hiatus.
    Apr 27, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Robert Pattinson is taking his role in “The Batman” very seriously. While the production of the upcoming superhero movie has been put on indefinite hiatus due to the coronavirus pandemic, the actor best known for his portrayal as Edward Cullen in the “Twilight” film series is still reportedly working hard to maintain his fit body.
    Though following the self-isolation guidelines with girlfriend Suki Waterhouse in London, the 33-year-old star did not put his guard down when it came to his physique. In fact, a source told HollywoodLife, “Things are going well, they’re good spending all their time together [but] Rob’s not totally relaxing with her because he has to stay in top form for Batman.”
    The insider further spilled that the Cedric Diggory of “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire” has been “training for several hours a day.” The inside source added, “He’s still working with coaches, he’s actually quite busy with work even though Batman has stopped filming. He’s still working with his trainer nearly every day, just on-line.”
    Insisting that the situation was “not easy” for the ex-boyfriend of Kristen Stewart, the so-called source claimed it was “taking a huge amount of discipline for Rob to stay shoot ready.” The source went on to note, “The hardest part is there’s no timeline, no one knows when they’ll be able to shoot again.”
    “Rob is so ready to get back on ‘The Batman’ set because he has gotten in the best shape of his life for it, but it has been difficult,” the insider explained, sharing that the quarantine workout was “really something he has had to get used to, eating differently and remaining fit for the role and the suit. It is very demanding but this role can be a game-changer for Rob.”
    The insider additionally pointed out that this is a chance for him to prove to doubtful DC fans that he is the right one for the lead role. “Sure, he is well accomplished in acting and has done a lot to prove himself but he is now in rarefied air,” the insider said.
    “Not everyone can be Batman, it is a very big test that he is taking beyond seriously because he wants to prove that he is worth it and really wants the fans to enjoy his take,” the source continued. “So being in the best shape of his life is a struggle, but well worth it in the long run.”

    ABC/Scott Patrick Green

    After stunning performances from Grace Leer and Just Sam, Johnny West concludes the new episode of the ABC singing competition with a perfect rendition of ‘What a Wonderful World’.
    Apr 27, 2020
    AceShowbiz – The show must go on. Coronovirus didn’t make the Top 20 of “American Idol” lose their fighting spirit to be the winner as in the Sunday, April 26 episode they were seen performing from their homes.
    Performing first was Kimmy Gabriela, who sang “Leave My Lonely” by Ariana Grande in her backyard. That was such an amazing performance that earned her praises from the judges. “You took it to the next level and you killed it,” Lionel Richie raved.
    Up next was Jovin Webb who impressed the judges with a rendition of “With a Little Help From My Friends” by Joe Cocker. Judge Katy Perry was so in love with the performance, telling him that he “separated himself” from the rest of the competition with his performance. Following it up was Franklin Boone, who opted to sing “Everybody Wants to Rule the World”.
    Meanwhile, Olivia Ximines opted to offer a powerful version of “Bad Guy” by Billie Eilish. The judges noticed that Olivia showed a pleasant growth from before. As for Louis Knight, she sang “If the World Was Ending” from her bedroom. The judges loved his artistry, though Katy noted that he sounded “a bit nasally.”
    The next performer was Maykayla Phillips. She chose to belt out “Greedy” by Ariana Grande. The judges were satisfied with the performance, but Katy asked her to pick a song that “tugs at the heartstrings” more if she was voted to the top 10. Singing “Run to You” by Whitney Houston was Aliana Jester. It was not an easy song but she nailed it.
    Faith Becnel then sang a powerful rendition of “River” and earned praises from the judges. Later, it was Nick Merico’s turn to perform “Hey There Delilah” and judge Luke Bryan said that he wished Nick would dig down “just a little more.”
    Lauren Spencer-Smith then sang a rendition of “Mamma Knows Best” before Cyniah Elise performed “Warrior” by Demi Lovato. Francisco Martin, meanwhile, picked Katy’s song “Teenage Dream” and got an approval from her.
    Also performing that night was Sophia James (Wackerman), DeWayne Crocker Jr., Dillon James and Arthur Gunn. Julia Gargano belted out Christina Perri’s “Human”, prompting the judges to rave about her performance. After stunning performances from Grace Leer and Just Sam, Johnny West concluded the night with a perfect rendition of “What a Wonderful World”.
    Only ten will move to the next round. The results will be revealed in the May 3 episode.

    'RHOA': Yovanna Momplaisir Is 'Absolutely Not' Afraid of NeNe Leakes Amid Beef

    Instagram

    The former friends have been exchanging insults on social media for the past few days, and now Yovanna has explained what goes wrong between her and her co-star.
    Apr 27, 2020
    AceShowbiz – NeNe Leakes and Yovanna Momplaisir’s friendship took a bad turn during filming for “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” season 12 virtual reunion. The former friends had been exchanging insults on social media for the past few days, and now Yovanna has explained what went wrong between her and her co-star.
    “What I posted last night was responses to some things that NeNe was posting,” the Bravo star said to HollywoodLife.com on Sunday, April 26, referring to her and NeNe’s online spat over who’s to blame for the infamous Snakegate scandal.
    For those who need a refresher, Snakegate scandal was when it was said there was an audio of Cynthia Bailey allegedly badmouthing her co-star NeNe during an interview. Yovanna was previously accused to be the one having the audio proof, prompting everyone to call her the “snake.”
    Back to the new interview, Yovanna continued saying, “She has since deleted the things that she posted on social media and it’s just funny that these are things that she did not come to the reunion with. In fact, my entire segment with her she chose to leave and not address anything. So, it’s just strange, because she should have she should have planned her case where she’s paid to.”
    “You guys are gonna have to watch the reunion. Everything is laid out there. Every single thing is laid out there,” she added about the Snakegate.
    When asked why NeNe attacked her online, Yovanna said, “Because she’s mad that she’s about to be exposed.” She went on to say, “I think that it’s, it’s just her way to, like I said, manipulate people’s minds before the truth actually comes out. This is just what you call desperation. So it’s just funny that these receipts that she keeps posting, they’re doctored up and they’re all one sided.”
    “She went Casper the Ghost at the reunion,” Yovanna said of NeNe. “Shes tried time and time again to prevent me from speaking my truth, so what you guys are seeing play out on social media is merely an attempt to manipulate people’s minds before the actual reunion airs, so this is her trying to do damage control because she knows it’s going to come out in the next few weeks.”
    Yovanna also added that she wasn’t afraid of NeNe. “Absolutely not,” she said. “She met her match. She underestimated the wrong one.”
    This arrived after it was said that Yovanna claimed that NeNe made her lie about the recording because she never had one. During the reunion, Yovanna allegedly mentioned that she decided to go along with her friend’s plan because she thought it would help her become a full-time member instead of a friend.
    Following the tapping, NeNe took to her Instagram account to share a screenshot of Yovanna’s text to her. The text saw Yovanna telling NeNe that they shouldn’t expose all of it in the reunion, which was contradicting with what Yovanna allegedly did during the taping.
    Clapping back to NeNe’s shade, Yovanna wrote on her account, “Judge @bravoandy had all the RECEIPTS at the reunion. You were a NO SHOW!! CASE DISMISSED!!” In a separate post, she also set the record straight that she “didn’t know Kenya Moore in April 2019” and question why were NeNe’s receipts “only one sided?”

    “RHOA” season 12 reunion will air on May 10 at 9 P.M. on Bravo.
