      Matthew Perry gave fans a sneak peek at his preparations for the highly-anticipated “Friends” reunion by sharing a photo of himself in the makeup chair onset – before deleting the image.

      The actor, who famously portrayed Chandler Bing on the hit sitcom, revealed filming was about to get underway on the TV special on Saturday, April 10 as he posted a behind-the-scenes shot on Instagram.

      The picture featured Perry sitting in front of a mirror with his mouth open, as a makeup artist appeared to be in the middle of applying powder to his face. “Seconds before eating a makeup brush, not to mention reuniting with my Friends,” he captioned the snap.

      More than 27,000 fans were quick to “like” the post, before Perry removed the photo from his account without any explanation.

      The unscripted special, during which Perry, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer, and Matt LeBlanc will revisit their characters and plots from the show, is being filmed at the Warner Bros. Studio lot in Burbank, California.

      They had originally planned the on-camera get-together to take place last year (2020), but filming on the HBO Max project was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

      In June 2020, Aniston and Kudrow talked about the special project over video chat for Variety’s “Actors on Actors” issue. At some point of their conversation, Kudrow mentioned, “We don’t know everything about it, we need to say. I think we’re meant to be surprised by some things as well.”

      In response, Aniston added, “We know it’s not scripted, that we know.” Her statement led to Kudrow saying, “Yeah, no. I will not be Phoebe.” The Rachel Green depicter then added, “I will not be Rachel, although I kind of am. Well, we’re all sort of little fragments of them. Not really. But yeah.”

      On the competition show to premiere sometime in 2021, a group of men will compete to be top stripper for a cash prize and the opportunity to perform with ‘Magic Mike Live’ cast in Las Vegas.

      Apr 12, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Channing Tatum is revisiting his stripper roots to launch a competition series in search of the real “Magic Mike”.

      The actor, who worked as an exotic dancer to make ends meet during his youth, turned his experiences into the 2012 movie “Magic Mike”, and followed it up with the 2015 sequel, “Magic Mike XXL”.

      He’s since expanded the franchise to include a steamy male revue in Las Vegas and London, and is currently having the original film adapted for a Broadway musical.

      Now Tatum has reteamed with director Steven Soderbergh to develop a reality show aimed at transforming a group of men into top strippers, with the best contestant crowned the Real Magic Mike. They will also score a cash prize and have the opportunity to perform with the cast of “Magic Mike Live” in Sin City.

      “The Real Magic Mike” has already been optioned by U.S. streaming service bosses at HBO Max, with plans to premiere the series later this year (2021).

      In a press release about the show, HBO Max’s head of original content Sarah Aubrey said, “From box office hits to sold-out live shows, ‘Magic Mike’ has proven to be a pop culture juggernaut that continues to delight people across the globe.”

      She continued, “We’re excited to work with Channing, Steven and the team behind ‘Magic Mike Live’ to continue this successful franchise that celebrates self-confidence and sexiness both inside and out.”

      Warner Bros. Unscripted Television president Mike Darnell chimed in, ” ‘Magic Mike’ is one of Warner Bros.’ most iconic franchises. We couldn’t be more excited to be working with Channing, Steven and HBO Max on an all-new vision of this amazing and legendary brand. We’re looking forward to giving fans a front row seat as we search the country for undiscovered talent.”

      WENN/Ivan Nikolov

      Towards the end of her virtual interview for ‘Today’ show, the ‘Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again’ actress talks about life amid the coronavirus pandemic when she gets joined by her 7-month-old son.

      Apr 12, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Amanda Seyfried has treated fans to a sweet surprise during her latest virtual interview. The “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again” actress sat down for a conversation with “Today” host Willie Geist when her baby boy, whom she gave birth in secret amid the coronavirus pandemic, suddenly made an appearance.

      The 35-year-old was joined by her young son towards the end of her Sunday, April 11 chat. She was not the only one excited over her little man’s present. The show’s host was also cooing over the infant. “Oh my God, what a cute guy. Come on,” he gushed after the actress’ baby boy popped in wearing a colorful baby romper.

      Before her baby boy’s surprise appearance, Amanda talked about how difficult it was for her to cope with being in the spotlight. The “You Should Have Left” actress told Willie that she still suffered from panic attacks due to her fame. “That’s what a panic attack is, really,” she pointed out.

      “Your body just goes into fight or flight. The endorphin rush and the dump that happens after the panic attack is so extraordinary,” she went on saying. “You just feel so relieved and your body is just kind of recovered in a way. It’s so bizarre because it’s physiological, but it starts in your head.”

      The actress, who received an Oscar nomination for her role in “Mank”, added that she wished people saw her as a normal being. “I do not have someone waking me up with breakfast in bed, and I’m not chauffeured around,” she explained.

      Amanda also shared that she has been living on a working farm in the Catskills of Upstate New York with her family. She made the “very conscious” decision because she wanted to have a life away from Hollywood. “I’ve always wanted to live on a farm. I just need to feel grounded somewhere that I can trust will always be there,” she said.

      Amanda welcomed her baby boy with her husband, “John Wick: Chapter 2” actor Thomas Sadoski, in September 2020. The married couple introduced their son for the first time on September 28, 2020 via Thomas’ Instagram post. The two are also parents to 4-year-old daughter Nina.

      Andy Cohen Hints at 'Housewives'-Styled Reunion Show for 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians'

      by

      WENN/E!

      The ‘Real Housewives’ producer claims ‘nothing is off limits’ as he is going to host a reunion special with the Kardashian/Jenner family when their reality TV series ends.

      Apr 12, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Andy Cohen has insisted “nothing is off limits” for the upcoming “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” reunion show.

      The 52-year-old television star is set to host a reunion special with the Kardashian/Jenner clan once the 20th and final season of their E! reality series has finished airing later this year.

      And Andy has now spilled more details on the upcoming show, which he says will “look like a real reunion show” and will see the famous family – including Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian West, Khloe Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Rob Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, and Kylie Jenner – discuss the highs and lows of all 20 seasons.

      He told SiriusXM, “We’re going to cover all 20 seasons of ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’, in a kind of ‘Housewives’-style reunion show. Nothing’s off-limits with this crew. I don’t know if I can even say when we’re filming it, but we’re filming it.”

        See also…

      “It will look like a real reunion show that you know and love, and this is something that I’ve wanted to do for a long time, and then when they announced that it was their final season, I was like, ‘We’ve got to do this. We have to do this the right way, you know?’ ”

      The final season of “KUWTK” premiered on March 18 after the family confirmed the programme would be ending back in September.

      Kim Kardashian previously hinted they wouldn’t be long gone after the “KUWTK” concluded. “Our new show on @hulu will be coming after the final season,” the mother of four told her followers.

      'Younger' Spin-Off Envisioned as Female Version of 'Entourage'

      by

      TVLand

      TV writer Darren Star is hoping to turn the spin-off of the Hilary Duff-fronted television series into a ‘female Entourage’ with the lead star returning alongside a whole new cast.

      Apr 11, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Prolific TV writer Darren Star has high hopes for his planned “Younger” spin-off focusing on Hilary Duff’s character, describing it as a female version of “Entourage”.

      The hit drama is set to end with its upcoming seventh season, but Star has been busy developing a follow-up series, which would follow Duff’s editor-turned-publisher, Kelsey Peters, from New York to Los Angeles as she pursues “another dream.”

      The idea has yet to be given the green light by TV bosses, but the “Sex and the City” and “Beverly Hills, 90210” creator is enthusiastic about the potential of the spin-off.

      “We’re talking about it. It’s a big question mark whether it’s going to happen,” Star told Variety. “It could be great, but we never know if these things are going to happen until they’re going to happen.”

        See also…

      Despite the uncertainty of the project, Star envisions Duff returning as Kelsey, surrounded by a whole new cast of characters.

      “It would be a totally new universe,” he shared. “The best way to describe it is that it would be a bit of a female Entourage with Kelsey as the lead. Still, the caveat is if it’s going to happen.”

      The final season of “Younger” debuts on U.S. streaming service Paramount+ on 15 April (21).

      Series regular Debi Mazar paid tribute to Hilary Duff following the cancelation in February this year, “Last night I filmed my final scene with [Duff] after 7 seasons on [Younger]. I adore this woman & I’m so proud of her. Not only is she a FIERCE broad, an amazing mother, but also a generous, seasoned actress with a wicked sense of humor. Hilary was brave enough to finish out this season in NYC (she’s a Los Angeles gal) during a pandemic, and VERY pregnant!!! Congratulations on your wrap!”

      'RuPaul's Drag Race' Star Announces New Podcast Inspired by 'America's Next Top Model'

      by

      Instagram

      Shea Coulee has a new podcast called ‘Wanna Be on Top?’ where she’ll talk about the Tyra Banks-hosted television show after binge-watching the old episodes.

      Apr 11, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      “Rupaul’s Drag Race” stand out Shea Coulee is fulfilling a lifelong dream by lifting up the stars of “America’s Next Top Model” in a new podcast.

      The popular drag queen contest’s “All-Stars 5” champion is set to take centre stage for the new audio series, titled “Wanna Be on Top?”, for which she’ll reteam with former show stars Willam and Alaska, who are taking on executive producer roles.

      Shea, real name Jaren Kyei Merrell, will share her expertise on the show she calls “my herstory” twice a week for the new podcast.

      “I wanted to do a podcast for a really long time,” she tells Entertainment Weekly.

      “I tossed around a lot of different ideas until I found myself binge-watching old seasons of America’s Next Top Model for probably the 20th time and then talked about it over and over with all of my friends who’ve probably heard me go on about it many times before.”

      “(I realised) this is what I should talk about forever! It’s my herstory (sic).”

        See also…

      In “Wanna Be on Top?”, the bubbly star, who previously walked the runway for Savage X Fenty, will examine the impact of the Tyra Banks-hosted model competition on pop and drag culture, and she’ll also welcome special guests to share their own love for the reality TV staple.

      And she’s most thrilled about helping to elevate some of the “America’s Next Top Model” contestants because, when the programme began, its participants weren’t taken too seriously.

      “The show went out there with the intent to launch the careers of top models, but at the time, reality television influencers weren’t a thing,” she shares, “so the fashion industry didn’t take these girls seriously. It was the fashion Olympics. It’s sad to think that those girls didn’t get the opportunities…”

      “I feel for them because they went through such a challenging experience, and the industry that they hoped would accept them rejected them…”

      “That’s why I want to celebrate them and give them a voice, and also allow people to see what amazing, beautiful people they are… I looked at those girls the way Drag Race fans look at us now.”

      “Wanna Be On Top?” debuts on 12 April wherever you get your podcasts.

      Topher Grace: Nerdiness Got Me 'That '70s Show' Role

      by

      WENN

      The ‘Spider-Man 3’ actor believes he landed his lifetime role on the classic television comedy show, despite his lack of acting experience, because he was a ‘real, actual nerd.’

      Apr 11, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Topher Grace is convinced he was only cast in TV comedy “That ’70s Show” because he’s a “real, actual nerd” as he had no idea about acting when he first auditioned.

      The star was still a teenager trying to figure out his future career path when a friend suggested he try out for the new sitcom – but Topher had already decided acting was “never” going to be part of his plan.

      “It was something I wasn’t even interested in,” he laughed on America’s “Live with Kelly and Ryan”. “I had interned at Casting (department) at ABC (Television) and all it taught me was that I should probably never go in to acting.”

      “It looked like everyone was getting rejected all the time so it was never something I thought about doing.”

      Then, when he was a student at the University of Southern California, Grace got a call from a friend who had put his name forward as a possible future star of the new TV comedy.

        See also…

      “I’d really never auditioned, and they (casting directors) said, ‘Why don’t you come to this audition?’ They said, ‘Bring a headshot and a resume,’ and I had no idea what a headshot even was.”

      So he asked the crewmember to explain, “They said, ‘It’s a picture that goes with your resume so we understand who you are.’ ”

      “My… resume said Dunkin’ Donuts (restaurant) and Suncoast Video that I worked at (sic). My headshot was me at Six Flags Magic Mountain (theme park) with a bunch of my friends.”

      Of course he got the job as Eric Forman on “That ’70s Show”, which also made stars of castmates Laura Prepon, Mila Kunis, Ashton Kutcher, Wilmer Valderrama, and troubled actor Danny Masterson, and ran on America’s Fox Network from 1998 to 2006.

      And the dad-of-two knows why he was tipped for the life-changing role, despite being a total amateur at the time.

      “They were looking for a real actual nerd, not like, someone who was playing a nerd,” he smiled. “And they got one.”

      Prior to landing the part, Cumberbatch starred in “The Mauritanian”, which has landed five nominations at the upcoming 74th BAFTAs. During a March appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon”, he said of the film’s achievement, “We’re over the moon. It feels fantastic.”

      The “1917” actor will next be seen reprising his Doctor Strange character in two upcoming Marvel movies, “Spider-Man: No Way Home” and “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness”.
