    Instagram

    The ‘Candy’ hitmaker is back on the set, reuniting with her TV co-stars and filming their hit television series ‘This Is Us’ only a month after delivering her first child.

    Mar 27, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Mandy Moore has returned to work on TV hit “This Is Us” just one month after becoming a first-time mother.

    The actress/singer gave birth to son August, nicknamed Gus, in late February (21), and on Thursday (25Mar21), she shared photos from her first day back on set as she prepared to reprise her role as family matriarch Rebecca Pearson.

    Sharing a selfie, in which she wore a face mask while having her hair styled, she wrote on her Instagram Story timeline, “Mom is BACK at work!!!”

    “Beck is back (sic),” she added beside a second shot, revealing her baby and her husband, Taylor Goldsmith, were supporting her on set.

    “So grateful to be able to ease back into this job I love so much (and to be able to bring my sweet hubby and baby to hang with me).”

    Mandy then posted a third selfie, dressed in her character’s costume of brown turtleneck and denim skirt, and corrected her own misspelling of her alter ego’s name, “And when I mean Beck, I clearly meant Bec (sic).”

    Little Gus is Mandy’s first child with musician Taylor. The couple wed in 2018.

    The actress previously credited her “This Is Us” role for “activating [her] maternal side.” At the beginning of the TV show, she knew very little about kids and had to learn how to change diapers and care for babies from crew members on the set.

    “I didn’t know how to change a diaper,” so she opened up in an interview with Conan O’Brien. “I had crew members showing me how to change a diaper.”

      'This Is Us' Is Set to 'Attack' Coronavirus in Season 5

      by

      NBC

      Through his Twitter post, series creator Dan Fogelman also responds to a fan’s question regarding when the NBC family drama will go back to production for the upcoming season.
      Aug 17, 2020
      AceShowbiz – “This Is Us” creator Dan Fogelman has answered one of the most frequently asked questions regarding the show’s storyline. Through his Twitter post on Sunday, August 16, Fogelman revealed whether or not the NBC drama would tackle COVID-19 in its present-day storylines.
      “Yes on Covid,” he wrote on the blue bird app, adding, “We’ve decided to attack things head on. Very proud of @ThisIsUsWriters.” “This Is Us” will join other TV shows, including “Grey’s Anatomy”, that incorporate COVID-19 into their forthcoming seasons. Coronavirus pandemic, however, didn’t seem to change the planned ending as Fogelman noted that it will have the “same planned ending. Same route to get there.”
      As to questions regarding when the show will go back to production, Fogelman responded, “Not sure yet on production start.” He’s also “not sure when new eps will air.”

      Series creator Dan Fogelman responded to a fan’s questions.
      Meanwhile, star Sterling K. Brown talked on Deadline’s “Contenders” about season 4 finale cliffhanger involving his character Randall Pearson and his brother Kevin (Justin Hartley). Despite having a sibling spat, the pair were seen having a special moment with their mother Rebecca (Mandy Moore) in a flashforward.
      “The relationship has been complicated from the beginning,” Sterling explained on Sunday. “They will continue like a yo-yo — will come apart and together, apart and together.”
      The Emmy-winning actor went on to say, “I think by the time we reach that point in the future, there are other things on their minds that they are able to focus on to put aside whatever differences they have. But for the next two or however many seasons we’re around, I think you’ll continue to see these brothers fray and then resolve, fray and resolve.”
      Phylicia Rashad, who plays Randall’s mother-in-law Carol Clarke, also discussed the mysterious depths of her character. “I wanted to bring credibility to Carol,” she said. “I wanted her to have a certain quality, or understatement, because she’s not a person who’s given to overt expressions and she’s very reserved. And yet she carries so much feeling, she carries so much emotion.”
      “It’s just that in her life, from early on, she has been reared and developed to hold that in as opposed to letting it out. So what happens inside a person when that happens? How do you live with that, and how do you channel that? And if it seeps out-and it would have to seep out-how does that feel? There’s just [so many] layers [to her],” the actress, who earns an Emmy nomination for the role, added.

      'This Is Us' Child Star Lonnie Chavis Can't Stop Crying on Set as He's Triggered by 'Racist' Scene

      by

      WENN

      The 12-year-old actor recalls sobbing on set when he listened to a co-star acting out a racist character and recounts being accused of stealing tip money.
      Jun 18, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Young “This Is Us” star Lonnie Chavis struggled to hold back tears as he listened to a racist grandmother on the hit show, because it brought back awful memories from his real life.
      The 12 year old, who plays Randall Pearce in the TV drama, recalls the show’s director and writers trying to calm him down as he became emotional during the scene, admitting he had no way of explaining what was going on in his mind.
      “I started crying listening to an actor portray a racist grandmother toward my character,” he writes in a new essay for People magazine. “The director and writers told me that they didn’t need me to cry for the scene. However, it was hard for me not to cry as I witnessed what I had just learned was my reality. I wasn’t acting, I was crying for me.
      “Can you imagine having to explain to a room full of white people why I couldn’t hold back my real tears while experiencing the pain of racism…?”
      Lonnie also reveals he was racially profiled at a restaurant in San Diego, California, while visiting one of his young black co-stars.
      “Her black cousins and I were accused by a young white girl working the cash register of trying to steal the few tips in her tip cup,” he adds. “It was a huge ordeal that almost led to police being called on us while we were with our parents.”
      A white fan of the show came to the family’s rescue and explained Lonnie was “a professional actor on two television series currently airing” and added he “doubted I would need to steal her few dollars.”
      “My mother never played the ‘he’s an actor’ card,” Chavis explains. “She definitely knew and argued that we were being targeted merely because we were a group of young black children. Can you imagine someone thinking you are a thief just because of the colour of your skin? I can.”
      The young star also opens up about the drama that went down on his 10th birthday in 2018 when his father was detained by police for a traffic ticket.
      “After coming home late with my family from my birthday party, a Long Beach police officer twisted my dad’s arm behind his back and pulled him from our doorstep with the door opened…,” Lonnie recounts in the essay. “My mother ran to my room and told me with fear in her eyes to go into my little brother’s room and stay away from the windows. She put my new baby brother in my arms and told me that no matter what I hear from our front yard to not come to the door.”
      “I held my baby brother and cried as I could hear my mother yelling outside of our home. I thought my parents were for sure going to die going up against the police. By the grace of God, they are both still with me, and that racially motivated harassment against my father was dismissed. Can you imagine holding on to your three little brothers while thinking that you are all going to be orphans? I can.”
      The actor concludes the essay by writing, “Change has got to happen for unarmed Black citizens to not live in fear of being murdered. Can you imagine being me in 2020 and wondering what the future holds?”

      Mandy Moore Almost Gave Up Acting Before 'This Is Us'

      by

      WENN

      The ‘A Walk to Remember’ actress admits she lost her confidence and almost quit acting after struggling to land a role and getting repeatedly turned down.
      Mar 1, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Mandy Moore considered quitting acting before landing her career-making role in hit U.S. TV show “This Is Us”.
      The multi-talented star had been more well known for her singing than her acting in 2015, although had starred in relatively successful movies “A Walk to Remember” and “Because I Said So” by that time.
      However, when it came to her future in the business, Mandy wasn’t sure she had what it takes to make it – with the constant knock-backs taking their toll.
      “I had done four failed TV pilots,” she said in an interview with “CBS Sunday Morning”, airing this Sunday, March 1, 2020. “So, I was kind of at the point where I was like, ‘Maybe this acting thing is done for me.’ Like, ‘Maybe I need to hang it up and go back to Florida, go to school, go try my hand at something else.”
      Luckily, Mandy persevered, and achieved a whole new fanbase through her role as Rebecca Pearson in “This Is Us”.
      Elsewhere in the interview, she spoke about her marriage to Ryan Adams. The pair wed in 2009 and finalised their divorce in 2016, with the 35-year-old star admitting her troubled relationship contributed to her low self-worth.
      “I just felt like I was at a point in my life where I was the most comfortable making myself the least priority, and I made myself as small as possible in order to make someone else comfortable,” she explained.
