<p>Talking about his case, Bell said, "... (The Case) moved very quickly for you, but for me, it's been a three-year, thorough investigation into every false claim that has been made."</p>

<p><br />
"It's not me telling you that the claims are false, but the state of Ohio has proven claims to be false. If these claims were remotely true, my situation would be very different. I would not be here at home with my wife and my son," he continued.</p>

<p><br />
As per the Hollywood Reporter, in July, Drake Bell was sentenced to two years of probation and 200 hours of community service on child endangerment charges for his alleged conduct with a young fan, whom he met online and then in person, which reportedly went on for years.</p>

<p><br />
In October of 2018, Cleveland authorities say, the victim--who was 19 at the time of Bell's sentencing--contacted the Toronto Police, who in turn, shared their findings pertaining to the case that prompted in further investigation.</p>

<p><br />
The victim stated that Bell began contacting her through an online chat platform when she was 12, and their communications escalated to exchanges that turned "blatantly sexual" by the time she was 15, according to The Hollywood Reporter.</p>

<p>The victim, who called Bell a 'pedophile' during his July hearing in Cleveland, said that the two had exchanged sexually charged photos and engaged in sexual conduct with her many times, including at a 2017 concert venue in Cleveland and also at a hotel.</p>

<p><br />
In his video, Bell stated that he is 'not perfect' and 'made mistakes' and called his behaviour 'reckless and irresponsible'. But, he disputed that he had maintained communication with the victim over a long period of time or had knowledge of who she was during their in-person encounters.</p>

<p><br />
Bell said, "I responded to a fan whose age I didn't know. When I became aware of their age, all conversation and communication stopped. This individual continued to come to shows and pay for meet-and-greets, and although I was unaware that this was the same person I was communicating with online, that's what I pled guilty to."</p>

<p><br />
Initially, Bell had pleaded not guilty to all the charges against him but eventually entered a plea deal with the prosecutors. He was convicted in June of felony attempted child endangerment, with a misdemeanour charge of disseminating matter harmful to juveniles.</p>

<p><br />
The attempted endangerment charge is related to the concert, where Cuyahoga County Prosecutor's Office spokesperson Tyler Sinclair stated Bell 'violated his duty of care' and put the victim in harm's way. The disseminating matter charge was about his 'inappropriate social media messages', as per Sinclair.</p>

<p><br />
"I want to make clear that there were no sexual images, nothing physical between me and this individual. I was not charged with anything physical. I was not charged with the disseminating of photographs or images or anything like that. This is strictly over text messages," Bell said in his video.</p>

<p><br />
"When I was presented with a plea deal because of the messages, I felt that it was the best way to get this over quickly and for everybody involved to be able to move on and for me to get back to doing what I love," he further added.</p>

<p><br />
Drake Bell concluded his video message by thanking fans for doing their own research and standing by him.</p>

Nickelodeon star Drake Bell opens up about his child endangerment conviction

<p>Hollywood megastar Jessica Chastain had to once give up on a role in 'American Hustle' that then went to Jennifer Lawrence.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
During a podcast interaction, Chastain--who has just won the Tribute Actor Award at the recently concluded Toronto International Film Festival 2021 (TIFF)--was eager to work with director David O. Russell on his 2014 outing 'American Hustle'.</p>

<p><br />
However, she had a packed schedule and the dates between projects were clashing with one another. So, <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-toronto-film-festival-jessica-chastain-benedict-cumberbatch-win-big-complete-winners-list-414108">Chastain</a> had to say no to the offer.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
"There’s so many parts where like, ‘Oh, so-and-so is going to do this.’ And then they fell out. Or I was going to do this and I fell out, so then this person jumps in. It happens all the time and we never talk about it because you don’t want the articles out there like, ‘Imagine this person doing it.' I’ll give you one. I love David O. Russell. Love, love, love, and I’ve always wanted to work with him. And I got offered 'American Hustle', the Jennifer Lawrence part," she shared, reportedly.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
Chastain the added that she had to back out despite her 'love love love' for David O. Russell. "I wanted to do it. It conflicted with Liv Ullmann and 'Miss Julie'. I had been attached to that for a long time and I worship Liv Ullmann. So I had to say like, ‘Sorry, there’s conflict.’ And it didn’t work out," she added.</p>

<p><br />
"And it’s good that movie didn’t do well," she jokingly said.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
Jessica Chastain collaborated with Liv on her latest miniseries 'Scenes From a Marriage' so she feels everything worked out just fine.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
A recent piece on the Daily Telegraph by Lynette Rice--titled 'How To Save A Life: The Inside Story Of Grey’s Anatomy'--sheds ight on what had actually led to the star performer's exit.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
Speaking of her much talked-about exit, Heigl revealed that it was a culmination of factors--ranging from the network's alleged plan to offer salary hike to co-stars Ellen Pompeo, <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-fan-favourite-patrick-dempsey-was-terrorising-the-whole-set-reveals-greys-anatomy-exec-producer-413755">Patrick Dempsey</a>, Sandra Oh and Isaiah Washington and the 'ungrateful' bit pertaining to her backing out of an Emmy consideration and the subsequent win.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"In this town, women who don’t just snap and say, ‘Okay, yes sir, yes, ma’am’ start to get a reputation for being difficult. I’ve decided it’s not worth it to me to be pushed around so much," Heigl said, reportedly.</p>

<p><br />
As for the Emmy back-out, Heigl was accused of taking a shot at the creator and her writers. But, she her reasons were entirely different. Heigl explained, "I did not feel that I was given the material this season to warrant an Emmy nomination and in an effort to maintain the integrity of the academy organization, I withdrew my name from contention."</p>

<p>"I thought I was doing the right thing. And I wanted to be clear that I wasn’t snubbing the Emmys. The night I won was the highlight of my career. I just was afraid that if I said, ‘No comment,’ it was going to come off like I couldn’t be bothered [to enter the race].

Katherine Heigl, however, says the real reason she quit the show was because she had become a first-time mother. "I started a family, and it changed everything,” she said. “It changed my desire to work full-time. I went on family leave and just got to be a [mom], and it changed my whole perspective… that was really the turning point. So before I was due back, I spoke again to Shonda about wanting to leave.

"The ‘ungrateful’ thing bothers me the most. And that is my fault,” she said. “I allowed myself to be perceived that way. So much about living life, to me, is about humility and gratitude.

Amit Sadh aka Naman is seen perfectly balancing his life as a single father, a good son, and as a successful video editor until a cool breeze, Rasika enters the story. She is his new neighbor who moved in with her father and daughter. Naman is seen putting a lot of effort to just get Ek Jhalak(a glimpse) of Rasika. The final Jhalak is mesmerizing which leaves Naman speechless with a smile.

It’s an occasion where Sanjay comes to Manisha’s house to ask her hand in marriage and gets to know a lot more about her and her work. At first, it seems a bit spicy but soon all the flavors of the story start to mix up well to give a perfect thing to enjoy. A spark is felt between them and gives you good vibes throughout.</p>

<p>"I will say that this 'Cinderella' is one for the new millennium. It is taking the old fairy tale of Cinderella, which has its problematic moments in modern times, and sort of making it relevant for today. It's very empowering for women. It's about women being empowered, women being businesswomen, running their own lives, making their own choices and decisions, not based on whether they have a man or not. So I think that's awesome. It's very inclusive, it's very diverse and one of the big changes is with the fairy godmother aka the Fab G which is played by yours truly. It's a new interpretation of what a fairy god person can be. It's magical and magic has no gender. And I get to be that spirit, this time around," Billy reportedly said.&nbsp;</p>

When asked how did it feel to play the free-spirited Fab G, Billy said it was liberating for him on a personal level. "It's really exciting for me because on a personal level as an out queer black actor in this business, it hasn't always been a welcoming space to be who I am naturally. There's always a talk about authenticity and just simply being yourself and my response to that has always been that its easy to be who you are when what you are is what's popular. So, what do you do when who you are is not popular? When who you are is not wanted. So, to choose myself so many years ago, to choose that thing that seemingly was my liability, and was my liability for a long time, until it wasn't. And now it's not. 'Cinderella' is an example of the reward for living in one's truth," shared the actor.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Recently, 'Dune' director Denis Villeneuve reportedly said that the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) produces too many 'cut and paste' movies.</p>

<p><br />
The Canadian filmmaker, who is best known for 'Arrival' and 'Blade Runner 2049', was asked about the MCU and the future of blockbuster movies in Hollywood by a global news publication.</p>

<p>"Perhaps the problem is that we are in front of too many Marvel movies that are nothing more than a 'cut and paste' of others. Perhaps these types of movies have turned us into zombies a bit… But big and expensive movies of great value there are many today. I don't feel capable of being pessimistic at all," Villeneuve said.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
Villeneuve also talked about his own artistic process, saying, "Just think of the golden age of Hollywood to see that commercial films can make a different artistic proposal and, therefore, political. I have never felt like a loss or an impediment to have a generous budget to do what I wanted to do. Upside down."</p>

<p><br />
In the past, too, the director has criticised MCU's lack of creativity in films and called it a 'factory'. "If we're talking about Marvel, the thing is, all these films are made from the same mold... Some filmmakers can add a little color to it, but they're all cast in the same factory. It doesn't take anything away from the movies, but they are formatted," he had said.&nbsp;</p>

'Dune' director Denis Villeneuve says 'cut and paste' format in Marvel films have turned viewers into zombies

<p>Jessica Chastain spent years pursuing the opportunity to play Tammy Faye Messner, the indefatigable star of Christian broadcasting. Better known to an audience of millions as Tammy Faye Bakker, she and Jim Bakker, her husband at the time, presided over the popular PTL television ministry until they were brought down in the late 1980s by financial and sex scandals.</p>

<p>So when Chastain finally got that chance in “The Eyes of Tammy Faye,” a new biopic co-starring Andrew Garfield as Jim Bakker and directed by Michael Showalter, she was determined to look the part. As Chastain said of the woman behind her character: “She never really did anything halfway. She didn’t have an ounce of being cool or being aloof about her. So I just felt like I couldn’t dip my toe in or be cool and aloof in the performance. I had to jump in the most wild, extreme way. Because that’s how she lived every moment.”</p>

<p>Chastain had done her own research for the film, which Searchlight Pictures released Friday: She sought out magazine articles about Messner, who died in 2007, as well as old photographs and TV appearances. But making that transformation required a team of makeup, hair and wardrobe artists. Some of them had worked with Chastain before, and they knew what they would be expected to deliver. “It’s basically what she says she wants,” said hairstylist Stephanie Ingram, adding, “At that point you’ve just got to make it happen.”</p>

<p>Here, Chastain and several of the artists who worked on “The Eyes of Tammy Faye” talk about how they were able to fill the TV personality’s shoes (not to mention her wigs, sequins and acrylics).</p>

<p>Justin Raleigh, the film’s prosthetic makeup designer, and his team faced a twofold challenge. First, designing prosthetics (artificial skin appliances made of gel-filled silicone) that struck the right balance between character and performer: “Jessica wanted to be lost within the role and to really embody Tammy without completely obliterating Jessica as well,” Raleigh said. “We had a really careful dance of how much prosthetics we were going to use or not.” Second, creating consistent looks that would build up to Bakker in her most recognizable eras: “Working in reverse, once we established what we had to do for the 1980s and ’90s, the only way to make the rest of it work would be to add prosthetics to her younger look,” Raleigh said. “We had to keep that level of continuity, anatomically speaking, throughout the entire film.”</p>

<p>During the 1960s and ’70s, Chastain wore prosthetics on her cheeks, an appliance on her chin (to cover a dimple) and tape to pull up the tip of her nose.</p>

<p>In scenes set in the ’80s, she added a bodysuit, a full neck prosthetic and an appliance on her upper lip; for the ’90s she added eye bags. Throughout, Raleigh said, “The cheeks were the hallmark element that had to carry all the way through.”</p>

<p>For all the cosmetics that Messner wore — and as much as she was ridiculed for it — members of the makeup team said they wanted to avoid mockery. “It was just really making sure that nothing we did compromised the authenticity of who she was and that we never crossed a line into a caricature,” said makeup artist Linda Dowds, who has worked with Chastain on 15 movies, beginning with the 2013 horror film “Mama.”</p>

<p>Dowds, who headed the makeup department on “The Eyes of Tammy Faye,” said there always had to be a “beauty element” in how the character used makeup: “She absolutely loved makeup, and she loved looking the way she did in makeup. She just got bolder with it.”</p>

<p>Pink was a prominent color in her youthful palette, but over time, her coloring got darker, and she tattooed her eyeliner, eyebrows and lip liner (re-created with marker on Chastain).</p>

<p>“We also had a lot more lashes to deal with — we went from one coat of mascara to four or five,” Dowds said. “She would say things in interviews like, ‘Who said you can’t put mascara on false lashes? Where do these rules come from? You don’t have to be dowdy to be Christian.’ ”</p>

<p>To build a wardrobe for the on-screen Tammy Faye, the film’s costume designer, Mitchell Travers, had to get into her character, too: “Honestly, I went shopping like Tammy did,” Travers said. “She had an expression where she would say that shopping was her favorite cardio. And she was a woman who loved the hunt.”</p>

<p>He scoured swap meets and estate sales, and shopped on Etsy and at T.J. Maxx, in search of clothes for a woman who wanted to look powerful even before she could afford to and who later had access to money, then lost it.<br />
“I could tell the story of what it was like to be comfortable with money and almost forget that things had prices,” Travers said. “And I could also tell the story of what it was like to have lost it all and the pressure to live up to that persona when you didn’t have the funds.”</p>

<p>At her 1980s zenith, the character’s apparel looked new, and everything about it was big: the shoulder pads, the clip-on earrings, the polka dots. And for Tammy Faye’s post-PTL life, Travers said, he tried to reuse earlier looks he’d already assembled, “so that you get the sense that it’s a woman holding onto something that used to be there, but it’s not coming as easily.”</p>

<p>Getting Chastain’s hair to look like Tammy Faye’s memorable tresses required no less than 11 wigs: brown ones for her youth; big blond ones for her heyday in the ’80s and red ones for her later years — even a removable wig with a built-in headband that Chastain could pull off to reveal the character’s short, spindly locks (in fact, another wig). And don’t assume that Ingram, head of the film’s hair department and another veteran of many Chastain projects, simply found these wigs on a store shelf.</p>

<p>“It’s funny because people say, ‘You take ’em out of the box; you put ’em on,’ ” Ingram said. “I’m like, mmm, no, you don’t.”</p>

<p>Some wigs were colored and fit to Chastain’s specifications, and others were made custom for her. A given day on set could also call for five to 10 more stylists to provide period hair for the rest of the cast. Near the end of the shoot, when Tammy Faye asks for a divorce from her husband, Ingram said, “I just fell apart. I guess my body just went, oh my God, you actually did it.”</p>

<p>Playing a role under many layers of wigs, clothing, makeup and silicone was a largely new process for Chastain. She said her closest previous experience was portraying the dowdy heroine in a Broadway production of “The Heiress,” on which she didn’t have the benefit of such a large artistic team: “I had a prosthetic nose, which I applied myself,” she said. “So I have the utmost respect for what they do. Because it was really hard.”</p>

<p>Turning herself into Tammy Faye each day could sometimes take as long as five to seven hours, even before any filming started, but Chastain said that lengthy preparation at least offered her the additional time to connect with her character. “When you sit in a chair for that long it can be draining,” Chastain said. “I was constantly watching videos of her, listening to her voice. I was using it as a runway. Sometimes when you’re playing a character, you get a 30-minute runway, and then you take off, and you’re shooting. My character had an extra-long runway.”</p>


Jessica Chastain spent years pursuing the opportunity to play Tammy Faye Messner, the indefatigable star of Christian broadcasting. Better known to an audience of millions as Tammy Faye Bakker, she and Jim Bakker, her husband at the time, presided over the popular PTL television ministry until they were brought down in the late 1980s by financial and sex scandals.

Jessica Chastain spent years pursuing the opportunity to play Tammy Faye Messner, the indefatigable star of Christian broadcasting. Better known to an audience of millions as Tammy Faye Bakker, she and Jim Bakker, her husband at the time, presided over the popular PTL television ministry until they were brought down in the late 1980s by financial and sex scandals. So when Chastain finally got that chance in “The Eyes of Tammy Faye,” a new biopic co-starring Andrew Garfield as Jim Bakker and directed by Michael Showalter, she was determined to look the part. As Chastain said of the woman behind her character: “She never really did anything halfway. She didn’t have an ounce of being cool or being aloof about her. So I just felt like I couldn’t dip my toe in or be cool and aloof in the performance. I had to jump in the most wild, extreme way. Because that’s how she lived every moment.” Chastain had done her own research for the film, which Searchlight Pictures released Friday: She sought out magazine articles about Messner, who died in 2007, as well as old photographs and TV appearances. But making that transformation required a team of makeup, hair and wardrobe artists. Some of them had worked with Chastain before, and they knew what they would be expected to deliver. “It’s basically what she says she wants,” said hairstylist Stephanie Ingram, adding, “At that point you’ve just got to make it happen.” Here, Chastain and several of the artists who worked on “The Eyes of Tammy Faye” talk about how they were able to fill the TV personality’s shoes (not to mention her wigs, sequins and acrylics). Justin Raleigh, the film’s prosthetic makeup designer, and his team faced a twofold challenge.

<p><br />
"You have to know what the truth is behind everything. There's so many narratives that float around about me, about him, about us together," she shared. "There's one big fat narrative that goes around that's like, 'Justin is not nice to her and he mistreats her.' It's so far from the truth. It's the complete and utter opposite."&nbsp;</p>

<p>Hailey went on to say that her husband is extremely respectful towards her. "I really am lucky to say I'm with someone who is extremely respectful of me, who makes me feel special every single day. So when I see the opposite of that, I'm just like, 'Huh?' And everybody around who knows us personally would say the same thing," she said.</p>

<p><br />
"If the lie is, 'They're miserable in their relationship.' Well, the truth is that we've literally never been more obsessed with each other and we have so much fun together," she added.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
Hailey also said that Justin helps her stay calm during tough situations. "I think Justin does a very good job of reminding me because I have my low days where I'm like, 'This is too much and all the things people are saying, I can't take it today,'" she said. "Again, he'll come in and be like, 'Well, the truth is this, the truth is that you're good and you're secure and you're loved and all of your friends love you and your family loves you and I love you'," added the model.</p>

As for being called Justin Bieber's wife, Hailey has no qualms about carrying that title.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
"When you marry someone that is really well known, you also accept that a lot of the time people are going to be like, 'Oh yeah, that's blah, blah blah's wife.' It doesn't bother me," she said. "It bothers me when people try to take it and flip it and be like, 'People wouldn't know who you were if you weren't his wife.' Because I disagree, I'm sorry, but I disagree... When we split up and we didn't talk for a very long time, I feel like I worked very hard to continue establishing who Hailey was and I still work to establish that... At the end of the day, it doesn't bother me when somebody's like, 'Oh, you're Justin's wife.' I'm like, 'Yeah, I'm Justin's wife!' Because where is the lie?" concluded Hailey Bieber.&nbsp;</p>

Priyanka Chopra Jonas sends Nick Jonas birthday surprise during a Jonas Brothers concert

<p>In a recent interview, Lady Gaga’s dog walker Ryan Fischer talked about that fateful night when he was attacked and shot while&nbsp;walking Lady Gaga's dogs.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
Ryan Fischer, who had been walking the singer-actor's French bulldogs for six years before the tragic attack took place this February, spoke with CBS Mornings host Gayle King on his recovery, the incident itself and Lady Gaga's involvement through this journey.</p>

<p><br />
"The car basically came in, at an angle. There was no doubt in my head that they were stopping for me. I was scared. I was in pain. I had a feeling when they came up, pulled the gun on me, that I was going to end up being shot. In my mind, I was like, ‘There’s no way I’m not going to fight for these dogs," Fischer recollected.</p>

<p>The scene at the hospital, which he remembers seeing and understanding what was going on around him, looked bleak. "When they put the chest tube in, all of a sudden all this blood just spurted out on the doctor next to me. Everyone’s faces just dropped. I heard my blood pressure drop. I looked at the machine. The people in the E.R. who I’d seen that night told me that they didn’t think I was going to survive that night," he shared.</p>

<p><br />
Although he is not sure whether the attackers knew these expensive dogs belonged to <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/lifestyle/news-lady-gaga-and-her-8-inch-boots-just-made-the-traffic-come-to-a-staggering-halt-see-pics-403441">Lady Gaga</a> or not, Fischer says he would be surprised if they did. "The one thing I’ve noticed in L.A. while walking the dogs is people say out of the cars, ‘How much are those dogs worth?’ How much are they? Can I buy them?’ That part was always surprising–the viewing of a dog as a commodity."</p>

<p><br />
However, &nbsp;the two French bulldogs--that had gone missing following the attack--were returned to the musician after she offered a reward money of $500,000 for them.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
After Fischer’s attack, Lady Gaga posted a heartfelt note for him, writing, "I continue to love you Ryan Fischer, you risked your life to fight for our family. You’re forever a hero."</p>

<p>Talking about Lady Gaga's support towards him, Fischer said that the singer-actor has been supportive towards him. "She’s been a friend for me. After I was attacked, my family was flown out and I had trauma therapists flown to me. I stayed at her house for months while friends comforted me and security was around me," he said about the 'Shallow' singer.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
When asked as to why did Fischer set up a <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-lady-gagas-dog-walker-shot-while-tending-to-her-pets-seeks-support-online-406476">GoFundMe page</a> instead of seeking financial help from Gaga, Fischer said, "LG’s very supportive of my journey right now. I think it’s hard for people to understand why someone would go about healing this way. I grew up Catholic in the Jesuit faith and there’s something about giving up your resources, giving up belongings, and to contribute back to society. So, I know that doesn’t make sense to a lot of people, but she totally gets it."</p>

<p><br />
Ryan Fischer, however, is embracing life well. He shared, “I feel good about my life. I’m in a good space mentally as I’ve done the work to embrace this part of myself."</p>

<p><br />
In April, multiple arrests were made in connection to the &nbsp;the robbery and the police confirmed that detectives did not believe the suspects targeted the victim because the dogs were Lady Gaga’s, but due to the market value of the expensive breed.</p>

"We lost her just before COVID, just before we started shooting, after a long battle with pancreatic cancer. So, for me, I was able to continue her song on the ocean and the wave of Jonathan's songs.

<p><br />
In 'The Activist', these three celebrities will be joining a team of six activists each who will be assigned various issues like health, education and environment. There will be challenges for them to take on and the groups will be fighting each other for maximum online engagement.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Reports confirm, there will be musical performances too and the participants may get an opportunity to attend the G-20 Summit in Rome, Italy, where they will be given a chance to secure funding for their respective causes.</p>

The show came has been <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-priyanka-chopra-jonas-usher-to-host-an-activism-competition-series-netizens-are-fuming-412266">vehemently criticized</a> for the competition aspect of it, among others.</p>

<p><br />
Now, in a lengthy Instagram post, Julianne &nbsp;has addressed the controversy revolving around the show. "After the press release announcing The Activist, I heard you say that the show was performative, promoted pseudo-activism over real activism, felt tone-deaf, like Black Mirror, The Hunger Games, and that the hosts weren’t qualified to assess activism because we are celebrities and not activists," she wrote.</p>

<p>"I heard you say that there was hypocrisy in the show because at the root of activism is a fight against capitalism and the trauma that it causes so many people and that the show itself felt like a shiny capitalistic endeavor," she added.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
She further added, "And because of all this, there is a feeling of insult, dehumanization, insensitivity and hurt that is being rightfully felt. I do not claim to be an activist and wholeheartedly agree that the judging aspect of the show missed the mark and furthermore, that I am not qualified to act as a judge."</p>

<p><br />
In the post, Julianne also addressed the controversy stirred by her allegedly poor choice of Halloween costume in 2013, when she had darkened her skin to resemble 'Orange Is The New Black' character Crazy Eyes.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
“On top of all this, many people are just becoming aware that I wore blackface in 2013, which only further added insult to injury. Wearing blackface was a poor choice based on my own white privilege and white body bias that hurt people and is something that I regret doing to this day,” she shared.</p>

<p><br />
"However, the regret that I live with pales in comparison to the lived experiences of so many. My commitment has been to reflect and act differently. Not perfectly, but hopefully with a more developed understanding that racism and white supremacy is harmful to ALL people. I’ve definitely not addressed all the different, valuable feedback about what the show missed and my missteps. I want you to know that I am still listening, because this is a messy and uncomfortable conversation, and I’m committed to being here for all of it," she explained.</p>

<p><br />
The celebrity host also for the show went on to explain why she accepted the offer in the first place. "In doing so, I felt it would help educate, mobilize, and inspire people around the world to get involved in activism because many worthy causes need attention, funding, and most importantly, the power to effect real change."</p>

<p><br />
Julianne wants this to be a learning experience and respond authentically. "I’m going to continue to listen, unlearn, learn and take the time to be fully present with everything that you have all shared because I don’t want to just react. I want to digest, understand and respond in a way that is authentic and aligned with the woman I am becoming.</p>

<p><br />
I also understand that there is no response that I could share that would make everyone happy, however, I want you to know that this is a conversation and I’m still listening," she concluded.</p>

Priyanka Chopra’s co-host Julianne Hough reacts to The Activist furore, says it missed the mark

<p>Georgina Reilly and Wilson Bethel have been roped in for director Marian Yeager’s upcoming film, ‘Match Me If You Can’.</p>

<p>The romantic comedy written by Betsy Morris centers on Kip Parsons (Reilly), a female computer nerd who declares war on online dating services when she’s rejected by one as “unmatchable,” becoming a reluctant spokeswoman for all the frustrated singles out there.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Riley Detamore (Bethel), the programmer and mastermind behind the dating service, wants to know why Kip is trashing his company, so he sets up a chance run-in. This produces an awkward chain of mishaps, ending with no answers and leaving them both feeling an undeniable spark.</p>

Georgina Reilly and Wilson Bethel have been roped in for director Marian Yeager’s upcoming film, ‘Match Me If You Can’. The romantic comedy written by Betsy Morris centers on Kip Parsons (Reilly), a female computer nerd who declares war on online dating services when she’s rejected by one as “unmatchable,” becoming a reluctant spokeswoman for all the frustrated singles out there. Riley Detamore (Bethel), the programmer and mastermind behind the dating service, wants to know why Kip is trashing his company, so he sets up a chance run-in. This produces an awkward chain of mishaps, ending with no answers and leaving them both feeling an undeniable spark. The film is produced by Yeager with Monica Lund. The project is scheduled to start filming in late October.

Venice Film Festival: John Arcilla wins Best Actor for 'On The Job: The Missing 8'

<p>Hollywood star Pierce Brosnan recently played the role of King Rowan in Amazon Prime Video's modern retelling of 'Cinderella'.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
In an interview with a global news website, the former James Bond talked about how he loved the freshness of his character (a legend in its own right) and appreciated director Kay Cannon's 'empowering' version of the classic tale.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"As I said, the story of <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-cinderella-review-camila-cabello--co-all-for-emancipation-of-women-410503">Cinderella is a very ancient story</a>, but in the hands of Kay and the company, they really have created something which is empowering and beautiful and exhilarating for young women, young people, and anyone. It’s seamlessly embroidered with the songs that are familiar, by great stars and great singers. You don’t quite catch it, and then you go, “Oh, my God, that was Madonna. That was Queen.” It’s a compliment that the narrative flowed into the songs so effortlessly," Brosnan reportedly said.</p>

<p>Talking about his character in 'Black Adam', Brosnan said, "It’s exhilarating. I had the most magnificent time and with Jaume Collet-Serra, who’s the director of Black Adam and the most recent film with Dwayne Johnson, Jungle Cruise. I’ve always joked with my boys about playing Dumbledore because I grew a beard. I’ve been growing beards and facial hair and it’s gray. I’m going gray and you have to let them know you’re coming, so to speak. You’ll hopefully grow into your years, as an older actor, and find work for yourself, as the wizard or the sorcerer or the king.
