      Katie Thurston Ends Her 'Bachelorette' Season Filming 'Ahead of Schedule'

      by

      ABC

      A source spills about how season 17 goes, ‘Katie was in control and made sure the men she wanted were there and the men she wasn’t interested in, she sent packing.’

      Apr 29, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Katie Thurston is not wasting time. According to a new report, she wraps her “The Bachelorette” season, which she shares with fellow leading lady Michelle Young, ahead of the schedule as she takes her job handing out roses very seriously.

      Katie is said to be starting to film her journey of finding love in New Mexico in March and already wrapping on Saturday, April 24. A source spills about how season 17 goes to Us Weekly, “Katie was in control and made sure the men she wanted were there and the men she wasn’t interested in, she sent packing.” The insider also says that the filming of the upcoming season of the long-running ABC dating show “went great and it wrapped a week ahead of schedule.”

      Former “The Bachelorette” stars and new hosts Tayshia Adams and Kaitlyn Bristowe allegedly “can relate to Katie’s journey in a lot of different ways, which you’ll see play out.” The source continues, “It was nice to have them there to help out with whatever situation came up. Tayshia had fun and loved doing it. She and Katilyn made a great team.”

      “The Bachelorette” announces Katie and Michelle as the new Bachelorettes in the “After the Final Rose” special of Matt James’ season of “The Bachelor” back in March. “We’re the Bachelorettes,” Michelle and Katie announced together. “I was a little nervous, but once I found out that it was two different seasons, I was here for it. I’m excited that I get to have somebody to bond over with this and share notes as we go,” Michelle, a 27-year-old teacher from Edina, explained on “After the Final Rose” which was hosted by Emmanuel Acho on Monday, March 15.

      She added, “I really do think that this process works. When you can set down all these outside distractions and really dive in, I think you can learn a lot about somebody. I’m just excited. I’m ready to get started.” As for Katie, the 29-year-old bank manager from Renton chimed in, “I’m ready to find love, and not just the temporary kind… I’ve seen it work before, why can’t it work for me?”

      Tayshia and Kaitlyn would only host for season 17 and it remains to be seen if Chris Harrison will return to host the franchise. Crew members, meanwhile, wanted Chris to be back. “There were a lot of very last-minute changes,” a source shared earlier this month. “It’s a different vibe. Chris was the glue that holds it together. He’s like the father figure to everybody. He’s someone everybody knows and respects and truly loves.”

      Another insider said that “Tayshia and Kaitlyn have had to learn how to cohost and it’s taken time,” noting that it was made very clear that the women weren’t “replacing” Chris. “They’re lovely to work with and they get along with the crew. It’s just completely different with them co-hosting,” the source continued.

      Joseline Hernandez and Wendy Williams Involved in Heated Argument on Live TV

      by

      BET

      The ‘Joseline’s Cabarent’ star calls out Wendy for treating ‘young black Spanish girls’ who have been on her show differently and demands respect from the host for what she has accomplished for years.

      Apr 29, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Joseline Hernandez stopped by the new episode of Wendy Williams’ talk show and things went south during the interview. As soon as the “Puerto Rican Princess” appeared during the virtual interview, Wendy seemed to be offending her guest by saying that Joseline looked different and unrecognizable every time she sees her. The host, however, quickly added that it was in “a good way.”

      “Hopefully it’s a good way Wendy, because i must say this to you first,” Joseline, who was there to promote her Zeus network reality show, “Joseline’s Cabaret”, responded. She then demanded respect from Wendy, saying, “I hope you’re going to give me my flowers today. I hope you’re going to honor how much work I’ve put out there…I’m an accomplished woman and I just feel like every time I come to your show, you don’t give me those flowers now.”

      “You’re 35 years my senior. I should get those flowers now,” she went on saying, while Wendy looked confused by the sudden rant. “I should feel wanted by people like you. Not just me, all the other young girls,” Joseline continued, to which Wendy quickly interjected, “You wanted to feel wanted by me? I always say you’re very entertaining.”

      However, Joseline insisted, “But we feel like you’ll be trying us. We feel like you don’t be really rooting for us. You know, we feel like, especially with me, every time I come on your show you’ll always want to compare me to another broad. I don’t need to be compared. I’ve made my own brand. I’ve made my own brand for years.”

        See also…

      When Joseline claimed that she has “the number one show in the country,” Wendy quipped, “No, you have the number one show on Zeus and you got renewed for a third season which is to be commended.” Still, Joseline corrected, “The number one show in the country, Ms. Wendy!”

      Firing back at Joseline, Wendy said, “You feel undervalued? Well so do I, okay? Because you’re a part of pop culture, this is what I do. But if you possibly think that I leave here every day and don’t feel undervalued for something that I do, you know, as a woman, we’re not gonna even talk about race. Just as a woman, I still don’t make that dollar for dollar men make.”

      The answer wasn’t what Joseline expected though as she responded, “This is not about men. Woman to woman, we should uphold each other higher, not go against each other or compare women to other women. … I came from the streets, I came from the gutter, give me that respect, Ms. Wendy. We love you, but at the same time, you have to do better. You’re not in abusive relationship anymore. You don’t deal with that man anymore. You should be in a better place and when people come on your show, especially black culture, you should be nicer to us, the ladies, you should respect us, you should give us our flowers while we’re here and you should tell how proud you are of what we’ve done in the streets.”

      “Well, I’m not proud of all,” Wendy argued. “And what I’ve been through makes me even harder to young women, like you coud do better. … I don’t apologize for anything, this is what I do.” That only further enraged Joseline who later accused Wendy of treating “young black Spanish girls” differently. Refusing to cooperate, Joseline added, “I’m not going to let you play me anymore, Ms. Wendy.”

      Eventually, the interview went on with Wendy asking Joseline about her fiance Ballistic Beats, her kid, her relationship with ex Stevie J and his wife Faith Evans.

      Jenna Coleman to Play Real-Life Miss Moneypenny in WWII Series 'The War Rooms'

      by

      WENN

      The ‘Victoria’ actress has landed a lead role in a new World War II drama series, playing a woman who became James Bond author Ian Fleming’s inspiration for his fictional Miss Moneypenny.

      Apr 29, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Actress Jenna Coleman is heading underground to star in new World War II drama series “The War Rooms”.

      The show will focus on the life of Joan Bright, portrayed by the “Victoria” star, and her work in British Prime Minister Winston Churchill’s secret Whitehall bunker in London.

      She began the war as a secretary, and ended up organising the great Allied conferences, all while enjoying a romance with her friend and James Bond author Ian Fleming, who is said to have partly based the character of Miss Moneypenny on Bright.

      “The War Rooms”, inspired by Bright’s 1971 memoir, “The Inner Circle: A View of War at the Top”, was created by David Chidlow and is being produced by “The Father” ‘s David Parfitt, with Coleman also serving as an executive producer.

        See also…

      In a statement, she says, “Joan Bright was never going to live a conventional life – a young woman who lived her war days under the official secrets act, undercover and underground in the war rooms.”

      “This story is so compelling not only because of her unique and liberal mind, wryness of spirit and curiosity to live, but because of the opportunity to examine this endlessly fascinating period of time through an intimate and human lens. The closeness and proximity of days and nights lived within this small space, the carriers of the truth amidst the oblivion of propaganda above. The beauty and fragility of human connection when living through a time when no one knows what tomorrow will bring.”

      “I’m so excited to unearth these hidden lives and at a time where it feels so shockingly relevant right now.”

      Each season of “The War Rooms” is designed to cover 12 to 18 months of the Second World War.

      First-Look Pictures of 'House of the Dragon' Feature Emma D'Arcy and Matt Smith

      by

      HBO

      For the scene which is taken on the Holywell Bay Beach in Cornwall, Emma’s Rhaenyra Targaryen looks a lot like Emilia Clarke’s Daenerys Targaryen as she has her long platinum blonde locks styled into an impressive braid.

      Apr 28, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Some first-look pictures of HBO “House of the Dragon” have found their way out online. In the pictures that were obtained by Daily Mail, stars Matt Smith and Emma D’Arcy were seen transforming into Prince Daemon Targaryen and Rhaenyra Targaryen respectively after filming a scene by the beach.

      For the scene which was taken on the Holywell Bay Beach in Cornwall on Tuesday, April 27, Matt donned a black jacket and a pair of knee-high boots while sporting a long blonde wig. Joining him was Emma’s Rhaenyra. She looked a lot like Emilia Clarke’s Daenerys Targaryen in a long crimson gown featuring split at the front and long platinum blonde wig. She had her hair styled into an impressive braid and fixed atop her head.

      The pair were seen casually talking on the empty beach. At one point, they headed towards the water following the discussing.

      Matt Smith and Emma D’Arcy snapped in first-look pic of ‘House of the Dragon’.

      The pictures arrived after it was speculated that the southern county would be the primary set for the prequel series of “Game of Thrones” as crews were spotted in different locations last week. It was also said that the production takes place in a medieval castle on St Michael’s Mount on Mount’s Bay in Cornwall that is said to be bearing a striking resemblance to the Croatia castle where Queen Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey) lives on the original HBO series.

      Matt Smith and Emma D’Arcy play Prince Daemon and Rhaenyra Targaryen respectively.

      The new pictures arrive after HBO confirmed production on the “Game of Thrones” prequel on Monday, April 26 as it unveiled a few photos from the table reading. One of the pictures saw its stars practicing social distancing during the session. “Fire will reign. The @HBO original series #HouseoftheDragon is officially in production. Coming soon to @HBOMax in 2022,” the official account of the series wrote in the caption.

      Based on George R.R. Martin’s “Fire & Blood”, “House of Dragon” is set 300 years before the events of “Game of Thrones” and will follow the House Targaryen. Paddy Considine leads the series as he plays King Viserys Targaryen. Olivia Cooke is cast as Alicent Hightower while Rhys Ifans plays Otto Hightower. Steve Toussaint joins the cast as The Sea Snake and Fabien Frankel portrays Ser Criston Cole, who is a member of King Viserys I Targaryen’s Kingsguard.

      Jimmy Fallon: Vaccinated Americans Are ‘Flashing Their Mouths Like It’s Mardi Gras’

      AceShowbiz –
      Rockers KISS are heading to TV as the subjects of a new docuseries.

      “Biography: KISStory” will revisit the “Rock & Roll All Nite” hitmakers through the years, and feature interviews with band co-founders Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons, as well as current members Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer, rock peers Dave Grohl and Tom Morello, and former manager Doc McGhee.

      Home movie footage, original recording sessions and behind-the-scenes tales will also be included in the four-hour, two part show, which will be directed by D.J. Viola for America’s A&E network, reports Deadline.

      It will be produced by Leslie Greif, who previously worked on the network’s reality show, “Gene Simmons Family Jewels”.

      In a statement, A&E executive Elaine Frontain Bryant writes, “Through the Biography lens we are able to give fans a backstage pass to a two-night event that honors the legacy of the rock icons behind KISS.”

      “Biography: KISStory” will launch on June 27.

      News of the TV documentary emerges just days after it was reported that director Joachim Ronning’s KISS movie biopic, titled “Shout It Out Loud”, is poised to head to streaming service Netflix. The project, which script is written by Ole Sanders based on an earlier draft done by William Blake Herron, has Simmons and Stanley serving as executive producers.

      The biopic will follow Simmons and Stanley from the time they were only two misfit kids from Queens to the formation of their legendary band as they recruited guitarist Ace Frehley and drummer Peter Criss. It is aspired to serve KISS what “Bohemian Rhapsody” did for Queen.

      Rachel Bilson Open to 'The O.C.' Reboot: It Would Be Awesome

      by

      WENN

      The Summer Roberts depicter would love to reprise her onscreen role and reunite with her TV co-stars for a possible reboot of her hit drama television series.

      Apr 28, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Rachel Bilson would love a reboot of her hit drama series “The O.C.”

      The actress starred as Summer Roberts in the hit show – which originally ran between 2003 and 2007 – and Rachel has expressed her interest in joining a reboot of the show.

      She shared, “I know we talked about definitely getting together personally, as a reunion … all of us getting together. I think we have spoken to some already, everyone’s on board for that.”

      “But a reboot would be awesome. I think that’s in the hands of (creators and executive producers) Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage. There’s still a ways to go, so maybe they’ll figure it out! That’d be fun.”

        See also…

      Despite the show’s success, Rachel doesn’t actually have many vivid memories of the series, but she’s been watching old episodes and feels as though she’s been “discovering” it for the first time.

      She told Entertainment Tonight, “I’ve learned that I actually have zero memory and don’t remember most of the things that happened on this show. So I’m kind of going through this with everyone else, re-watching it, discovering it.”

      “I wouldn’t even say rediscovering it, (I’m) discovering it for the first time!”

      If “The O.C.” is revived, it will join a number of classic television shows which have been rebooted in the past few years. They included “MacGyver”, “Fuller House”, “Charmed”, “The X-Files”, “Saved by the Bell”, “Punky Brewster”, and “Gossip Girl”.
