      'Survivor: Winners at War' Finale Recap: The Winner Is…

      by

      CBS

      Kicking off the episode, 14 players on the ‘Survivor: Edge of Extinction’ compete with each other to get one chance to join Denise Stapley, Tony Vlachos, Sarah Lacina, Michele Fitzgerald and Ben Drieberge in the game.
      May 14, 2020
      AceShowbiz – “Survivor: Winners at War” aired its finale on Wednesday, May 13. At the end of the episode, one of the five remaining contestants, Denise Stapley, Tony Vlachos, Sarah Lacina, Michele Fitzgerald and Ben Driebergen, would be named the winner of the season and taking home coveted $2 million grandprize.
      Kicking off the episode, 14 players on the “Edge of Extinction” competed with each other to get one chance to join back the game. They had to do a challenge featuring different stages. Natalie Anderson led as she pocketed three advantages and eventually won following a showdown between her and Wendell Holland.
      As soon as she joined the five players, Natalie told them that everyone on the jury wanted to vote Tony to win. The claims got Sarah, Tony’s biggest ally, worried as she wanted to prove that she played a crucial part in the big moves that Tony made.
      Later at the immunity challenge, the players were asked to run through an intense obstacle course to collect three bags of puzzle pieces. They later had to complete the puzzle. Michele came out as the winner.
      Tony wanted to out Natalie but he hesitated as he thought that she might have an advantage in her pocket, which was true. Natalie, meanwhile, formed an alliance with Michelle who later hinted to Tony that Natalie would be voting for him in hopes he would play the idol. Tony didn’t want to waste his idol so he tried to convince Sarah and Ben to vote for Denise with him.
      At tribal council, Natalie played her hidden immunity idol. That led Tony and Ben to play theirs too. Natalie got four votes with Ben getting two, but because they played their hidden idols, the votes didn’t count. They had a re-vote and eventually Denise was eliminated.
      Before the next immunity challenge, Natalie obtained an idol. For the new challenge, the players had to swim, climb and balance to obtain a key. Tony came out as the winner.
      Tony asked Sarah to find out whether Natalie had a hidden idol. Natalie told Sarah that he did, and Tony heard that. With that, the plan was to vote on Michelle to flush Natalie’s idol out and get Michele out of the game. Ben, however, worried that Natalie would blindside them and play the idol for Michele. He then urged Sarah to write his name down to help her if she gets to the final three.
      At tribal council, Natalie played her idol for herself. Meanwhile, Ben was sent to the jury as Sarah did what Ben asked her to.
      The final immunity challenge required the players to drop balls down a chute and catch them before they hit the ground while one of their hands was tied behind their back. They would be out if they dropped the ball. Natalie earned the first spot in the final three after she won the challenge. Natalie would choose one player to join her in the Top 3 while the rest had to win a fire-making challenge to earn the last spot.
      After much consideration, Natalie picked Michele to join her in the final three which meant Tony and Sarah were going head-to-head in fire-making challenge which Tony eventually won.
      It was finally time for the 16 jury members to vote among Tony, Natalie and Michele. Tony got 11 votes while Natalie earned 5 votes. That meant Tony was crowned as the winner!

      Tyler Perry to Reopen Studios in July and Begin Production of His New Shows

      by

      WENN

      The ‘House of Payne’ creator will fly all of his crew and cast members on his private plane and provide coronavirus testing before they start the production.
      May 14, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Tyler Perry is plotting to get back to work with two new BET series.
      Amid the ongoing coronavirus lockdown, the 50-year-old producer has set start dates for the new U.S. shows, “Sistas” and “The Oval”, reported Deadline, with work on the seasons beginning one at a time at his Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta, Georgia, on July 8, 2020.
      Sistas will go first, according to the report, followed by “The Oval” on July 28. Both will film 22 episodes of their second seasons in two and a half weeks.
      The plan involves “testing and sequestering the shows’ cast and crew on the sprawling, 330-acre lot of Tyler Perry Studios,” the publication reported.
      According to Deadline, Perry is providing his private plane for all involved and, after they test negative for Covid-19 pre-boarding, they will be flown from Los Angeles and New York to Atlanta. Everyone, including Perry, who is directing all episodes, will remain on the lot for the entire duration of the shoot.
      The existing structures on the lot, which once housed a military base, will provide accommodation for everyone working on each of the shows “so there will be no need for portable housing as originally thought,” the report continues.
      “Upon arrival, everyone will be tested and quarantined in their rooms for four hours while they wait for the results. The cast and crew will be tested four times over the 2.5 weeks of the shoot, with Carlos Del Rio, professor at Emory Vaccine Center, serving as testing consultant.”
      Editors at Deadline also noted the dates are early compared with other U.S. TV studios, which are looking to resume filming between August and October.

      Denise Richards Clears the Air Amid 'RHOBH' Exit Rumors

      by

      Bravo

      Denise is rumored to be exiting the reality TV show after she was absent during the cast trip to New York City back in January following a confrontation with other cast members.
      May 13, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Denise Richards is setting the records straight. “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star has been long rumored to be exiting the Bravo reality show following alleged beef with co-stars. However, Denise insisted that the rumors were far from truth.
      “We were pretty much wrapped actually in December and I was asked to go to two events that we had,” she said in an interview with Extra. “I did not make it to those. That was the extent of me stopping filming. I did not quit the show. The only people that said I quit are some of the people on the show, and they never asked if that was true or not.”
      Denise was rumored to be exiting the reality TV show after she was absent during the cast trip to New York City back in January. Her no-show arrived after the “Wild Things” star was confronted by other Housewives during a previous trip to Rome about her alleged affair with former cast member Brandi Glanville.
      A source, meanwhile, previously detailed the alleged confrontation. “They confronted her in Rome because she was also s**t talking the girls to Brandi,” the insider said, adding that Denise denied having an affair and talking poorly of her fellow Housewives.
      Fellow “RHOBH” star Kyle Richards also addressed Denise’s absence in several filmings. “[Denise] stopped, you know, basically showing up. She didn’t want to face anything or deal with anything, so she either would bring her husband or disappear,” Kyle said.
      “That was something I really took issue with because I’ve been on the show for 10 years. There have been so many things have come up that were really, really painful over these 10 years. When you think about the things that people went through on this show, like, I never knew it was an option not to show up!” she went on to say.

      'RHOA': NeNe Leakes Will Not Give Her #1 Seat to Kandi Burruss

      by

      Instagram

      NeNe also says that she has attempted to end the feud with the Xscape singer but that doesn’t work, prompting her to think that Kandi only wants ‘some smoke’ with her.
      May 13, 2020
      AceShowbiz – NeNe Leakes is feuding with “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” co-star Kandi Burruss after having a tense moment in part 1 of season 12 reunion. Now, NeNe addressed the matter in an interview with “The Breakfast Club” on Tuesday, May 12, claiming that Kandi “just wants to be number 1.”
      “What damage do I need to control? I didnt do anything, you guys watched the show, I sat there they said what they said I said what I said,” NeNe shared in the clip. “Kandi just wants to be number 1, you know she’s never been number one in anything that she’s done. So coming over here to my house she wants to be number one, this seat is not available yet. It’s available when I give it to her, she’s number two.”
      When asked how their feud began, NeNe claimed that “Kandi and I have never had an issue.” While she admitted that they “had our little issue years ago,” she added that they had decided to “let it go.”
      “So I did this YouTube show, I have a YouTube channel I’m sorry and I spoke on there about a situation that never involved her, I never called her names, imagine looking at a video and saying, ‘She’s talking about me,’ ” the 52-year-old said. “So basically that’s what she did, she looked at my video where was no names called and she said, ‘She’s talking about me’ and she just ran with it.”
      NeNe then said that she had made an attempt to end the feud with the Xscape singer. “Now I did with these girls say that you should do, if you and that person are cool, why can’t you call them up. So I said sure I’m going to call Kandi up. I sent Kandi some text messages, she started firing back at me in the text messsages. I said Kandi this is not about you, she continued to do it,” she explained.
      She added, “I texted her days later, texted her again and told her Kandi its not about you, she continued. So from that I knew she just wanted some smoke with me, she’s been boring for a while now, and so what better way to have somebody to call your name Kandi, is to put in line with Nene Leakes.”
      NeNe later was asked about who she was talking on her YouTube channel if it wasn’t Kandi, to which she replied, “Well if I wanted everybody to know then I would have said it right there on my channel, I’ve never been a person to hold back, I was speaking my mind about a situation, that just did not involve her. And I don’t feel like I needed to sit on camera and start calling people names, cause once you do that, it’s a whole bunch of drama right.”

      “So I didn’t call any names, I just said what I said. She just inserted herself as the person I was talking about, but see Kandi is no competition for me, if I was really going to talk about her, I would tell her, not only on camera, to her face,” she added.
