      Dylan McDermott Teases New TV Show With Ryan Murphy

      The ‘American Horror Story’ actor plots a new television project with Ryan Murphy and is confident that their collaboration will be ‘the funniest show of all time.’
      May 30, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Dylan McDermott is planning yet another new show with TV mogul Ryan Murphy, in which he’ll play a former masseuse.
      The actor has teamed up with Murphy for “American Horror Story” and his new show “Hollywood”, and now reveals there’s a TV comedy in the works featuring himself and Leslie Jordan.
      McDermott offered a few clues about the comedy during a recent SAG Conversations interview and admitted he can’t wait for the coronavirus lockdown to end so he can get started on the untitled show.
      “I love Ryan, we’re good friends and I’m very lucky to have someone like Ryan in my corner,” Dylan said. “Ryan is creating a show for myself and Leslie Jordan, which I think will be the funniest show of all time.”
      “Leslie and I are great friends and he and I together is the odd couple. I think it’s a home run. I can’t wait to start that show. He’s the genius and will present it whatever it is. He did write something on his Instagram that I (my character) was a former masseuse. That’s all I know and it will be a comedy that’s for sure.”
      McDermott will always be grateful he spotted Murphy’s talent early on when the writer/director created TV drama “Nip/Tuck”.
      “I watched Nip/Tuck and I thought, ‘This guy is special. This guy is going places and I want to get on this train’,” the actor recalled. “I read the pilot for American Horror Story and I was like, ‘Whoa!’ I only felt that a couple of times in my life.”

      Tyra Banks on Controversial 'ANTM' Episodes: 'I Cringe Through the Eyes of Today'

      The ‘America’s Next Top Model’ host and judge reveals she struggled to watch the controversial episodes as she admits what they did on the show was wrong.
      May 30, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Tyra Banks struggles to watch old episodes of “America’s Next Top Model” after receiving backlash over a number of controversial moments.
      Historic clips from the show have been resurfacing online as fans have looked back at some of the more cringeworthy moments from the TV talent contest’s history.
      Viewers have taken to social media to vent their frustrations at particular moments, including the host telling Cycle 6 winner Dani Evans that she’d never be a successful model because of the gap in her teeth. Other contentious moments include Cycle 13’s “biracial themed” photo shoot, where contestants had their skin darkened.
      After previously accepting the criticism on social media, the star opened up on the controversy in a chat with Entertainment Tonight, insisting, “Yes, I apologised for it. Because we put it out and even me just watching it after, I was like, ‘Oh, this ain’t right.’ ”
      “We felt like our skin is beautiful, let’s paint the world our colour. And then when we saw it, we were like, ‘Oh no, this excuses other people to do this in a negative way,’ ” she explained. “We realised that, and I went on my talk show and did an entire segment on what we did. What we did was wrong, and we apologised for it.”
      Referring to the clip where she calls out Evans, Banks admitted that when she looks back at that episode, “I cringe.”
      “And I cringe through the eyes of today,” she added.
      Taking to Twitter to address the criticism, Tyra, who has been hosting the show since 2003 and serves as executive producer, previously wrote, “Been seeing the posts about the insensitivity of some past ANTM moments and I agree with you.”
      “Looking back, those were some really off choices,” she added. “Appreciate your honest feedback and am sending so much love and virtual hugs.”

      Ramy Youssef Recalls Being Ghosted by Lindsay Lohan About Appearance on Hulu Series

      by

      Instagram

      In an new interview, the Golden Globe winner reveals that the ‘Mean Girls’ actress has agreed to open up on her journey to Islam on ‘Ramy’, but did not show up on shooting day.
      May 29, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Lindsay Lohan was set to open up on her journey to Islam on Ramy Youssef’s hit Hulu series “Ramy” – but apparently stopped taking the star’s calls.
      The 29-year-old Golden Globe winner told Entertainment Weekly he wanted the “Mean Girls” actress to appear in a scene about Muslims that most people don’t realise practice the faith, alongside former pornographic actress Mia Khalifa.
      However when it came time for her to arrive on set, 33-year-old Lindsay, who has spoken openly in the past about her commitment to the faith, apparently never showed up.
      “We had an idea that it wasn’t just (Khalifa), but we were interested in this idea of people that you don’t really think are Muslim,” Youssef explained. “We actually cast Lindsay Lohan, because Lindsay had this whole thing about converting to Islam.
      “So we had cast Lindsay and I talked to her and she was down, and then, you know, like Lindsay does, we just kind of stopped hearing from her,” he laughed.
      The star added: “I was trying to get ahold of her and she was on the call sheet, and I guess she couldn’t make it. I don’t know, I never heard from her.
      “You can’t try and put Lindsay in a box, that’s what I know. Lindsay is going to be Lindsay,” he added.
      However, Youssef didn’t seem to hold any ill will towards Lohan, and said he’d be happy to have her make an appearance in the third season.
      “She is one of my favourite Muslims,” Ramy joked.

      Gal Gadot's Drama Series About Hedy Lamarr Gets Picked Up by Apple TV+

      by

      Instagram

      The eight-episode limited series project from ‘The Affair’ co-creator Sarah Treem and ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ producer Warren Littlefield was initially reserved for cable network Showtime.
      May 29, 2020
      AceShowbiz – “Wonder Woman” star Gal Gadot’s new drama about Hollywood star-turned-inventor Hedy Lamarr has been handed a straight-to-series run by bosses at Apple.
      The eight-episode limited series from “The Affair” co-creator Sarah Treem and “The Handmaid’s Tale” producer Warren Littlefield was earmarked to debut on U.S. cable network Showtime, but executives there never pulled the trigger on the project and so Apple executives have jumped in to pick up the show, which follows the “Samson and Delilah” star’s career over three decades.
      It’s a passion project for Gadot and her husband and producing partner Jaron Varsano, who brought Treem and Littlefield on board to help them develop the series.
      Lamarr’s children, Anthony Loder and Denise Deluca, will consult on the project.
      The beloved silver screen siren died in 2000, aged 85.

      Ice Cube Too Upset Over George Floyd's Death to Appear on 'Good Morning America'

      46-year-old Floyd died at the hands of Minnesota police after a white cop kneeled on his neck during an arrest and ignored his plea that he was struggling to breathe.
      May 29, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Rapper/actor Ice Cube cancelled a planned TV appearance on Thursday, May 28, because he was in “no mood” to chat following the death of an unarmed black man at the hands of Minnesota police.
      The “Friday” star is among a host of celebrities outraged about the death of George Floyd, who was caught on camera gasping for breath as a white cop kneeled on his neck during an arrest on Monday.
      Floyd, who repeatedly told the arresting officers he was struggling to breathe, lost consciousness at the scene and was pronounced dead at a nearby medical center.

      All four cops involved in the incident, which has sparked violent protests across the U.S., have been fired, and now activists are demanding authorities charge the men with Floyd’s murder.

      Ice Cube vented frustration over George Floyd’s death.
      Ice Cube vented about the latest act of police brutality against African-Americans on Twitter on Tuesday, writing, “How long will we go for Blue on Black Crime before we strike back???” and on Thursday, he revealed he was too angry to go through with his scheduled interview on U.S. breakfast show “Good Morning America” to promote his new film, “The High Note”.

      Ice Cube announced cancellation of his ‘GMA’ appearance.
      Explaining his absence to fans, he tweeted, “I apologize to everyone expecting to see me on Good Morning America today, but after the events in Minnesota with George Floyd, I’m in no mood to tell America, good morning.”
