      Sebastian Stan: Having Black Captain America Is 'Incredibly Powerful Symbol'

      by

      Disney Plus

      The Winter Soldier depicter explains why his superhero series with Anthony Mackie, ‘The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’, is Marvel’s most relevant show yet.

      Mar 21, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Sebastian Stan believes “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” is Marvel’s “most relevant show yet.”

      The actor, 38, appears in the forthcoming Disney+ show as Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier and, speaking to GQ Hype, he admitted he had to “find his (character’s) voice” to get into the role.

      Sharing his concerns about having “longer scenes” and “a lot more dialogue” between himself and co-star Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson, Stan explained, “Well, in a way it’s the bit that worried me the most. Not as an actor, per se, but as a fan of the character.”

      “Winter Soldier and Falcon have worked together best when they’ve had little to say to one another. We’re good at quips. So, now, what are they going to say to one another?”

      “For this show, I had to find his voice, in all senses, and do it in a way that was timely to what is going on in 2021.”

      He continued, “Look, you can’t do a show that explores the title of Captain America without touching on some of the stuff we have seen on the news. In fact, I would argue this is Marvel’s most relevant show yet.”

      “A Black Captain America is an incredibly powerful symbol, for all those reasons we were discussing, but also he was the right man from a character standpoint (to) take the shield, regardless of race.”

      “Bucky wouldn’t be emotionally intelligent enough or mentally stable enough to be able to handle such huge shoes. His moral compass is somewhat questionable too.”

      Stan first appeared as Bucky in “Captain America: The First Avenger” in 2011 but appeared to die at the end of the film. However, in “Captain America: The Winter Soldier”, it was revealed Bucky had survived and he went on to appear in various instalments of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

      Mar 21, 2021

      In the drama, Eddie plays a widowed single father raising five kids with the help of a nanny, played by new mum Katharine McPhee.

      “Caryn Lucas, our showrunner, called and said, ‘Hey, we got this part. We think LeAnn would be perfect for it. Do you think she’d want to do it…?’ ” Eddie told Us Weekly.

      “So I asked her… and she’s like, ‘Oh, I’d love to.’ And that’s how it kind of came about – pretty organic.”

      On Friday, Rimes posted a shot of herself and Cibrian on the set and added the caption, “So proud and excited for my hubby @EddieCibrian and the whole CC cast and crew! Their brand new series #CountryComfort is out TODAY on @netflix. They had a ‘take your wife to work day’ while filming, so I got to go play on set.”

      by

      While some of Bachelor Nation eventually find their soulmate after appearing on the long-running ABC dating show, some others are not so lucky as their romance crumbles down in such a short time.

      Mar 21, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      People hope to find the love of their life by joining ABC’s long-running dating show “The Bachelor”. While some of Bachelor Nation eventually did find their soulmate after appearing on the show, some others were not so lucky when it comes to that.

      Despite drama and breaking others’ heart in the process, some couples ended their relationship in such a short time. A few of them only lasted for five months, while one couple even called it quits after dating for two days.

      Find out Bachelor Nation couples whose relationship crumbles down in a relatively short time.

      1. Clare Crawley and Dale Moss

      ABC/Craig Sjodin

      Clare Crawley and Dale Moss fell in love so fast and split just as fast. The pair made a history by getting engaged only two weeks into the filming of Clare’s “The Bachelorette” season. However, their relationship crumbled down rather quickly with the former football athlete announcing their breakup five months after he popped the question to Clare.

      Taking to his Instagram account, Dale wrote, “I wanted [to] share with you all that Clare and I have decided to go our separate ways. We appreciate the love and support we’ve received from so many people, but this is the healthiest decision for both of us at this time.” He added, “We strongly believe in leading with love and always remaining true to oneself – something our families have taught and instilled in us throughout our lives. We only hope the best things for one another.”

      2. Matt James and Rachael Kirkconnell

      ABC

      Matt James and Rachael Kirkconnell didn’t get engaged at the finale of Matt’s season of “The Bachelor”, but they declared their love for each other. Apparently, they didn’t have a chance to bring their romance to the next level due to Rachael’s scandal over her past racist behavior.

      Matt shockingly announced that she broke up with Rachael during “After the Final Rose” which was filmed and aired in March 2021, three months after they filmed the finale. “We’re not [together],” Matt said on “After the Final Rose”. “It’s heartbreaking. If you don’t understand that something like that is problematic in 2018, there’s a lot of me that you won’t understand. It’s as simple as that.”

      3. Becca Kufrin and Arie Luyendyk Jr.

      ABC/Paul Hebert

      Arie Luyendyk Jr. was probably the least favorite Bachelor in the franchise history. During his season 22 of the show, Arie proposed to Becca Kufrin in the finale while eliminating his runner-up Lauren Burnham.

      However, less than two months later he admitted to Becca in front of camera that he had just realized that his heart was for Lauren. Arie and Lauren eventually got married in January 2019. They share a daughter together and are currently expecting their second child.

      4. Hannah Ann Sluss and Peter Weber

      ABC

      Peter Weber and Hannah Ann Sluss got engaged in November 2019 after meeting in season 24 of “The Bachelor”. However, the pair’s romance didn’t last long as the pilot confessed by the end of January 2020 that he still had lingering feelings for another lady in his season, Madison Prewett.

      “I never intended to give my heart to two people. I never intended that,” Peter told Hannah Ann. “And the pain that come with that. I’ve just been battling it. And I haven’t hid anything from you. I’ve told you everything. Even when I don’t deserve it, you never left me. You’ve always stood by me. You’ve always given me that love.”

      5. Hannah Brown and Jed Wyatt

      ABC

      At the end of her “The Bachelorette” season, Hannah Brown was a happily engaged woman after Jed Wyatt proposed to her. However, it all came to a crashing halt once she found out that Jed left a girlfriend when he joined the show.

      “It was heartbreaking,” Hannah admitted in an interview with PEOPLE. She added, “The foundation of what I believe love is is based on honesty and truth. If he loved me, wanted the best for me, why did he not give that to me? He always said he never wanted to hurt me, but he hurt me worse than anybody else did.” She was only engaged to Jed for five weeks before she decided to call it quits.

      6. Aaron Buerge and Helene Eksterowicz

      ABC/Craig Sjodin

      Aaron Buerge and Helena Eksterowicz once were a happy engaged couple. The pair had such a rough relationship as they broke off their engagement not only once but twice and they were all short-length. According to Helene, she first broke off their engagement two months after Aaron popped the question to her during the filming in September 2002, noting that she caught him ogling another woman.

      However, they managed to get back together and Aaron even proposed to her again when they watched the finale on TV together. The happy ending didn’t last long because Aaron had the most shocking way to end their romance five weeks after the episode aired. He took her to a Starbucks near her New Jersey home to tell her he was no longer “invested” in their relationship. “It felt like a bomb dropped. I said, ‘I feel very deceived by you. You’ve told me every single day that you love me, and now this is it?’ ” Helene recalled. Meanwhile, Aaron insisted that “it was just the best decision” for both of them.

      7. Jason Mesnick and Melissa Rycroft

      ABC/Matt Klitscher

      Jason Mesnick is another The Bachelor who appeared to not be able to figure his own feelings ahead of the finale of his season. He proposed to Melissa Rycroft in season 13 finale only to tell her one month later that he still had feelings for runner up Molly Malaney during “After the Final Rose”.

      “To say that we went into that After the Final Rose in an absolutely perfect place is a lie. [But] had we completely severed ties and broken up? No!” Melissa shared of the split. “You could have at least warned a chick before he walked out here. We talked minutes before I went out on that stage, and he never said anything.”

      8. Jesse Palmer and Jessica Bowlin

      ABC/Craig Sjodin

      Jesse Palmer and Jessica Bowlin didn’t manage to save their relationship. In the finale of Jesse’s “The Bachelor” season, he famously gave his intended, Jessica Bowlin, an airline ticket to New York. However, just one month after the episode aired, the couple revealed that they decided to go separate ways.
      “Jessica and I shared an incredible romantic journey on the show that began with a friendship that remains strong today. We simply realized that, individually, our next steps take us in different directions,” the New York Giants backup quarterback said in a statement. As for Jessica, she said of the split, “With too much distance and too little time these were not ideal circumstances in which to start a relationship. Jesse is a great guy and has a wonderful family. Who knows what the future holds?”

      9. Bob Guiney and Estella Gardinier

      ABC

      Bob Guiney presented Estella Gardinier the final rose at the finale of his “The Bachelor” season back in November 2003. However, the pair’s romance came to an end in a rather nasty way as Bob broke up with her over the phone just one month after the sweet moment.

      “He’s not the person I thought he was,” Estella said. I don’t see any reason to ever have a conversation with him. The path that I’m taking is different from Bob’s. He’s a big-time star now! He’s big-time, so my life doesn’t compare to that.”

      10. Madison Prewett and Peter Weber

      ABC/John Fleenor

      Peter Weber broke Hannah Ann’s heart just to be with Madison. They did get together after the whole drama but their romance came to a halt just two days after their “After the Final Rose” interview. It appeared that Peter’s mom had something to do with the split as she’s against Madison.

      “Madi and I have mutually decided to not pursue our relationship any further,” Peter announced. “Believe me this was not easy for either of us to be OK with, but after a lot of honest conversations, we have agreed that this is what makes most sense for the two of us. The love and respect I have for Madi will continue to endure.”

      Carole Baskin Blames 'Mob Mentality' for Abuse She Receives After 'Tiger King'

      by

      Facebook

      The former ‘Dancing with the Stars’ contestant claims she was the victim of a ‘mob mentality’ following Netflix’s docuseries which aired during Covid-19 lockdown.

      Mar 21, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Carole Baskin believes she was the victim of a “mob mentality” off the back of her appearance on Netflix’s “Tiger King” docuseries.

      The 59-year-old animal rights activist shot to fame on the show last year (20) but quickly became the target of abuse, which Carole believes is a consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic and the “uprising of mob mentality.”

      She told Netflix.co.uk, “In the past year, I’ve seen this mob mentality take over in every aspect, everywhere we’re seeing this really huge uprising of mob mentality.”

        See also…

      “I don’t know what’s causing that other than the fact that we’re all sharing in the same pandemic and we’re all afraid. I believe it’s causing people to do and say certain things, and to join into certain groups or cliques. I feel that actually had a big part of why I got so much hate from people that don’t know anything about me.”

      Carole’s arch-nemesis, zoo owner Joe Exotic, who also featured in “Tiger King” – has been jailed for attempting to hire a hitman to murder her, but Carole received abuse over an episode of the show which looked at the mysterious disappearance of her second husband, Don Lewis.

      She said, “If people had been paying attention, they would have noticed that the sheriff’s office said I’ve never even been a person of interest in the disappearance of my husband. Yet not the takeaway that people came away with after watching the show.”

      “In Tiger King, all of those bad guys and people who were abusing animals kept saying ‘Everything that happens is Carol Baskin’s fault.’ ”

      Vivica A. Fox and Lance Bass Blame Unlikeable Pro Dance Partners for Their 'DWTS' Eliminations

      by

      WENN

      The ‘Empire’ alum and the NSYNC member claim the ‘Dancing with the Stars’ judges gave them low scores because they couldn’t stand their respective dance partners.

      Mar 20, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Actress Vivica A. Fox insists she was kicked off U.S. TV talent contest “Dancing With the Stars” because the judges couldn’t stand her professional dance partner.

      The “Empire” star teamed up with Nick Kosovich on the show in 2006 and she’s still sore she only made it to the fourth week of the season, claiming low scores from the judges had nothing to do with her performance.

      Talking candidly on cable TV show “Overserved” with Lisa Vanderpump, the “Kill Bill” star said, “I made it to week four and I was a sore loser,” before adding, “Nick was one of the main reasons we got kicked off… You’ve got to play the game. My partner made too many requests.”

      Vivica, a former dancer on iconic American TV show “Soul Train”, insists she trained “six hours a day” and should have progressed further in the competition.

        See also…

      And she’s not the only former contestant making the shocking claims – former NSYNC star Lance Bass, who guested alongside Vivica on Vanderpump’s programme, insisted he too was punished for having an unpopular partner.

      “We were in the same boat,” he added. “My partner was new. She was the bad girl of ballroom and the judges just hated her. And we felt it.”

      Lance and his ballroom dancing pro, Lacey Schwimmer, made it to the show’s seventh season finale in 2008 before they were sent home, and he reveals one of the show’s then judges made a tipsy confession.

      “We make it to (the show’s) finale,” Lance recalls, “and then we go have drinks at one of the judge’s houses and they had a little too much to drink, and one of those judges was like, ‘You know we can’t stand your partner.’ I’m like, ‘Well then, why am I working my a** off this week?’ ”

      “Dancing with the Stars” bosses have yet to comment on the claims.
