Reunion: He also reunited with his The Whale co-star Hong Chau on the red carpet

Fraser is currently making the rounds on the awards circuit after The Whale made its theatrical debut last month following months of anticipation from fans and critics, alike.

It’s based on Samuel D. Hunter’s play of the same name, and the playwright also penned the film’s screenplay.

In addition to Fraser and Chau, the movie’s cast included impressive performances by Sadie Sink and Ty Simpkins. 

The feature is centered on a reclusive English professor (Fraser) who attempts to reestablish a relationship with his daughter (Sink).

Development on the movie was not officially announced until 2021, when its director and star signed on to work on the project.

Physical production on the feature took place in New York state that same year.

The Whale had its world premiere at the 79th Venice International Film Festival, which occurred last September, before it was released to the public last month. 

The movie was met with a mixed response from critics, although the performances of Fraser, Sink and Chau were praised by many.

The film was also a moderate success at the box office, as it has grossed nearly $14 million on a budget of $3 million, according to Box Office Mojo.

Fraser has since been nominated for numerous Best Actor awards for his work on The Whale, and he took home the distinction at the recently-held Critics Choice Movie Awards ceremony.

Earlier this week, it was announced that the much-celebrated performer had been put up for the Academy Award for Best Actor.

He is set to go up against Colin Farrell, Bill Nighy, Paul Mescal and Austin Butler for the distinction, which will be given out on March 12.

Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis are BACK on good terms after ugly custody battle as they hug it out

Olivia Wilde and her ex-fiancé Jason Sudeikis appeared on good terms when they were spotted together in Los Angeles this week, over two years after they ended their seven-year engagement in 2020.

Sudeikis, 47, and Wilde, 38, emerged from a meeting together and were seen chatting on the sidewalk, before gathering each other into an embrace and going their separate ways.

The pair have waged an ugly custody battle over their children Otis, eight, and Daisy, six, overlapping with Wilde’s relationship with Harry Styles, whom she directed in last year’s film Don’t Worry Darling.

Affection: Olivia Wilde and her ex-fiancé Jason Sudeikis appeared on good terms when they were spotted together in Los Angeles this week, over two years after they ended their seven-year engagement in 2020

History: The pair have waged an ugly custody battle over their children Otis, eight, and Daisy, six, overlapping with Wilde’s relationship with Harry Styles, whom she directed in the recent film Don’t Worry Darling

Styles, whose involvement with Don’t Worry Darling was at the center of dramatic rumors in the run-up to the film’s release, split from Wilde in November after a romance that spanned nearly two years.

Wilde and Sudeikis were glimpsed the following month having what appeared to be a tense conversation after they left a two-hour meeting together in Hollywood. 

However they appeared more at ease with one another during their sighting this week, chatting with one another and indulging in an affectionate hug. 

They expressed goodwill as they walked away from one another, with Sudeikis throwing a peace sign into the air and Wilde smiling cheerfully while strolling across the parking lot.

Backdrop: Styles, whose involvement with Don’t Worry Darling was at the center of dramatic rumors in the run-up to the film’s release, split from Wilde in November after a romance that spanned nearly two years

Changing times: Wilde and Sudeikis were glimpsed the following month having what appeared to be a tense conversation after they left a two-hour meeting together in Hollywood – a far cry from their latest sighting there (pictured)

However: They appeared more at ease with one another during their sighting this week, chatting with one another and indulging in an affectionate hug

Off they go: They expressed goodwill as they walked away from one another, with Sudeikis throwing a peace sign into the air and Wilde smiling cheerfully while strolling across the parking lot

The drama between them during their legal battle has seeped out into public view multiple times, including when she was infamously served with custody papers while onstage at CinemaCon last April.

Wilde called the incident ‘an attack on her workplace’, but said she was not surprised at it happening because there was a ‘reason’ she left her relationship with Sudeikis. 

In court documents obtained by DailyMail.com, she argued that the decision to serve her onstage in front of an audience was a bid to ‘threaten’ and ’embarrass’ her. 

Sudeikis filed suit against his ex in New York City Family Court in October 2021, and the dispute has largely revolved around where the children would live.

History: Wilde called the incident ‘an attack on her workplace’, but said she was not surprised at it happening because there was a ‘reason’ she left her relationship with Sudeikis

While he wanted them to live in Brooklyn, Wilde was hoping to have them stay in Los Angeles and possibly relocate to London, where her then-boyfriend Harry Styles was living.

In a legal filing signed August 5 last year, a judge ruled ‘New York was not the home state of the subject children’ and that rather ‘California was the children’s home state.’

‘Therefore, for the reasons stated on the record on July 15, 2022, respondent’s motion to dismiss the custody petitions filed on October 21, 2021 is granted,’ the filing, which was reviewed by Page Six, stated.

The court determined  that ‘New York does not have jurisdiction to hear the custody petitions’ because it is not Otis and Daisy’s home state.

Hashing it out: While he wanted them to live in Brooklyn, Wilde was hoping to have them stay in Los Angeles and possibly relocate to London, where her then-boyfriend Harry Styles was living

Wilde filed a petition to ‘determine parental relationship in Superior Court of California, in LA’ in May, the filing noted. Her legal team moved to legally dismiss Sudekis’ custody case on May 18.

Experts alleged at the time that the custody battle was likely to proceed in California.

In Wilde’s motion to dismiss Sudeikis’ suit, the actress claimed she and he had initially agreed to send their kids back to school in Los Angeles for the upcoming school year because Sudeikis was due to wrap up the final season of Apple TV series Ted Lasso, which had required him to be in London.

‘Recently, however, Jason decided that he wanted to go to New York for the next year while he is not working, and wanted the children to be with him there during this time off,’ the actress said in the filing. ‘When I did not agree, since the children have not lived in New York for several years, Jason filed these papers.’ 

Jurisdiction: In a legal filing signed August 5 last year, a judge ruled ‘New York was not the home state of the subject children’ and that rather ‘California was the children’s home state’

Looking ahead: Experts alleged at the time that the custody battle was likely to proceed in California

Wilde, who began dating Styles in January 2021, argued that the children have spent most of the last four years in Los Angeles or London, attending schools in both cities.

Wilde was famously served the court documents on April 26 in the middle of a presentation for 4,100 film industry executives about her thriller Don’t Worry Darling when she was awkwardly handed a manila envelope by a court process server.

The bizarre moment sparked furious speculation among attendees and reporters at the annual gathering of cinema owners and Hollywood studios about the envelope’s contents.

Sudeikis has maintained that he did not know Wilde would be served the papers in such a public and humiliating way.

Kanye West is ‘suspect in battery investigation’ after he allegedly threw woman’s cellphone

Kanye West is ‘suspect in battery investigation’ after allegedly throwing woman’s cellphone during heated exchange en route to kids’ basketball game

  • The rapper and designer has reportedly been named a suspect in a battery investigation after he allegedly grabbed and threw a woman’s phone
  • The incident took place while he was on his way to daughter North and son Saint’s basketball game
  • It appeared that Ye suspected he was being followed by paparazzi — it has not yet been confirmed whether the person was a photographer or a fan
  • The disgraced star was accompanied by new ‘wife’ Bianca Censori

Kanye West has reportedly been named a suspect in a battery investigation after the rapper allegedly snatched a cellphone belonging to a woman and threw it.

According to a social media video, West, 45, was en route to his daughter North and son Saint’s basketball game in LA when the alleged incident occurred.

The rapper, who seemingly suspected he was being followed by paparazzi, is seen exiting his black Mercedes-Benz to allegedly confront the female in her vehicle.

His new ‘wife’ Bianca Censori was seen in the passenger’s seat of his car and did not follow the Grammy Award-winner. 

 

Report: Kanye West has reportedly been named a suspect in a battery investigation after the rapper allegedly snatched a cellphone belonging to a woman and threw it

The woman – who has not been identified as either a fan or photographer – filmed the hitmaker from the driver’s seat as he said: ‘You didn’t have to run up on me like that. 

‘If I say stop, stop with your cameras!’ Kanye continued, before the woman suggested she was within her rights to film him because he is a ‘celebrity.’

The response may have angered Kanye as he allegedly grabbed the woman’s cellphone from her hand before tossing it into the air.

It’s unclear as to what led to the confrontation.

TMZ reported that he accused the woman of ‘following him’ and has since been named a suspect in a battery investigation.

According to a social media video , West, 45, was en route to his daughter North and son Saint’s basketball game in LA when the alleged incident occurred

His new ‘wife’ Bianca Censori was seen in the passenger’s seat of his car and did not follow the Grammy Award-winner 

The outlet further alleged that Ventura County Sheriff’s Department deputies were called and responded to the incident ‘around 4:30 PM and were provided video evidence of the incident.’

West’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian was also present at Friday night’s game as she arrived with sister Khloe Kardashian’s ex Tristan Thompson.

Kanye’s alleged altercation was said to have taken place near the sports facility. 

West – who shares North, Saint, as well as daughter Chicago and son Psalm with Kim – shocked fans when it was reported earlier this month that he had married new ‘wife’ Bianca Censori.

His divorce from Kim – whom he was married to for nearly seven years – was finalized in December but the former couple were declared legally single this past March.

Page Six reported that it wasn’t the only time West asked to be left alone on Friday. 

The publication noted that after he returned to his vehicle, he then stopped in front of a group of paparazzi who had been recording the entire ordeal.

‘You want me to be running up on your kids’ games like that?’ the superstar asked a pap, who then replied, ‘There’s a hundred of us.’

Ye then pleaded, ‘Everybody needs to stop when I see my kids. If I need to see my kids, you can’t photograph me. It’s called human rights.’

He was clad in all-black and his car was positioned in front of a gold-toned SUV

Jennifer Lopez reveals ‘scary’ near-death experience that occurred during Shotgun Wedding shoot

Jennifer Lopez is sharing about a scary situation that occurred while filming her new film Shotgun Wedding in the Dominican Republic.

While out promoting the rom-com with six of her co-stars, including onscreen love interest Josh Duhamel, Lopez admitted to having a near-death experience when she nearly went over a cliff.

It turns out Duhamel, who was in the scene with Lopez, came to her rescue by holding on to the leading lady for dear life as to save her from the fall.

Scary: Jennifer Lopez, 53, revealed she had a near-death experience during the shoot for her new film Shotgun Wedding, where co-star Josh Duhamel, 50, saved her from falling over a cliff

The terrifying story came up when the cast sat down for a game of ‘Who’s Who’ at BuzzFeed, during which they revealed which of them were most deserving of certain titles.

After several minutes, the group listed Lopez and Duhamel as ‘most likely to nail a stunt on the first take.’

‘Me and Josh got pretty good at it,’ the Bronx, New York native, 53, declared, for which her co-lead confessed, ‘l don’t think I’ve ever nailed anything on the first take.’

‘Really, I felt like we did pretty good,’ JLo shot back in the on-screen couples defense, adding, ‘Especially when we were handcuffed together and we had to do all that crazy stuff. Except for the one time when I almost went over the cliff,’ which peaked the interest of her cast mates who asked her to tell the complete story. 

During the promotion for the romantic action comedy, Lopez revealed how she nearly fell over a cliff during the scene ‘when my dress gets caught in the wheel’

Directing her story to her castmates, JLo revealed the freak accident happened ‘when my dress gets caught in the wheel’ during one pivotal scene.

‘I was going over! And I’m looking at Josh, and I’m like, “Josh, don’t let me go, please,” she added, as she demonstrated the scenario by sticking her hand out for Duhamel.

‘He’s like, “I got you. You go we go,” she recalled.

Luckily, they both made it through. ‘It was scary as f**k,’ Lopez admitted.

Another scary scenario: During another promotional interview by himself, Duhamel revealed he had a near-death incident of his own during a shoot break in the Dominican Republic

During another promotional interview by himself, Duhamel revealed he had a near-death incident of his own during a shoot break in the Dominican Republic.

‘I had some time off. There was this cove near where we were shooting and the waves were just like amazing, crashing up against the cliffs,’ the actor, 50, told Access Hollywood’s Zuri Hall. ‘I wanted to go get a video and a rogue wave comes in and almost takes me out over the cliff.’

Duhamel thinks the jagged rocks in the area where he was at the time held him ‘from going into the water’ and ultimately over the cliff.

‘I figured I was completely safe and all of a sudden bam,’ he explained, while using his hands to describe the impact on his face. 

Shotgun Wedding, which also stars Sônia Braga, Jennifer Coolidge, Lenny Kravitz, Cheech Marin and D’Arcy Carden, among others, premiered on Amazon Prime Video on January 27.

Shemar Moore speaks about being turned down by Alicia Keys after he asked her out on a date

Shemar Moore recalls being turned down by Alicia Keys after he asked her on a date during an appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show… days after becoming a first-time father

Shemar Moore recalled being turned down by Alicia Keys during Thursday’s episode of The Jennifer Hudson Show.

The 52-year-old actor reminisced with Hudson about his interaction with the 42-year-old singer during his tenure hosting Soul Train around the turn of this century.

The S.W.A.T. star’s appearance on the show took place just a day after he shared the first photo of his newborn daughter Frankie, who was born on Tuesday.

Struck out: Shemar Moore spoke about being turned down by Alicia Keys during Thursday’s episode of The Jennifer Hudson Show

Moore and Hudson began by speaking about his time as the host of Soul Train, which he headlined from 1999 until 2003, and he noted that he was introduced to many entertainers while working on the program, including Keys. 

He then told the show’s 41-year-old host that he had attempted to ask the singer out on a date, much to the surprise of both her and the audience.

Moore stated that their encounter took place ‘when she was first blowing up’ as a performer and that he was impressed by her piano-playing skills during the Soul Train Music Awards.

According to him, he and one of his friends attended one of Keys’ listening parties, during which he was encouraged to ask her on a date.

Big fan: The actor went on to give a bit of context to the conversation, as he stated that the encounter took place ‘when she was first blowing up’ as a performer and that he was impressed by her piano playing skills during the Soul Train Music Awards; she is seen in 2022

‘I go “Hey Alicia, check this out, you’re wonderful and the piano is amazing,”‘ he recalled. ‘”I don’t know what your man situation is like, but if you’re ever in LA, I’d love to take you for a drink.”‘

Moore added that Keys’ ‘aunt was right there, laughing and snickering at me.’

Her response was, ‘Check this out, son. I respect your flirt game, but my man situation is handled.’

Moore was deflated, and he said he ‘walked away so uncool’ after the rejection before he immediately told his friend that he wanted to leave the party.

Dejected: He added that he ‘walked away so uncool’ after being turned down by the hitmaker and immediately told his friend that he wanted to leave the party.

Moore is currently in a relationship with Jesiree Dizon, with whom he shares his baby daughter Frankie.

He expressed his excitement about fatherhood during his appearance on Hudson’s program.

People later confirmed that the singer and Dizon, 39, had welcomed Frankie this past Tuesday.

A representative for the couple spoke to the media outlet and stated that the actor’s ‘family is very happy and healthy.’ 

Proud dad: The news about the actor’s plans to start a family were revealed to the public earlier this month, and he expressed his excitement about fatherhood during his appearance on Hudson’s program

The actor’s girlfriend also shares a daughter named Charli, aged five, with Stephen Bishop, and she has a son named Kaiden from a previous relationship.

Moore shared his excitement about fatherhood with a post that was shared to his Instagram account on Wednesday, where he was seen cradling his newborn daughter.

He also penned a message that partially read: ‘Already THE LOVE OF MY LIFE!! I’m a Girl Daddy!!!! HOLY S***!!! DREAMS COME TRUE!!’ 

The performer then predicted that ‘Frankie is gonna grow up to be a KILLA!!!’

Chrisean Rock buys a lavish wedding dress in Los Angeles and REVEALS she is tying the knot in DAYS

Chrisean Rock was spotted purchasing a lavish wedding dress at a Los Angeles bridal shop on Wednesday.

Now sources have told TMZ that the 22-year-old star will tie the knot on Friday.   Witnesses at the bridal shop told the outlet that the influencer told employees onlookers she ‘needed the perfect dress’ for her nuptials, although she did not disclose who the groom was. 

However, there is speculation she could be saying ‘I do’ to Blueface, whom she has been linked to since 2020. Rock announced last week that she was expecting her first child with the rapper, 26. 

Blueface, however, has adamantly denied that he is the father. 

Wedding bells: Chrisean Rock, 22, was spotted purchasing a wedding dress on Wednesday, with witnesses telling TMZ she planned to tie the knot on Friday; seen earlier this month in North Hollywood 

The TikTok star was seen entering the popular shop called Anita’s, which is located in LA’s fashion district in photos obtained by TMZ. 

According to the tabloid, sources explained that Chrisean didn’t take long to find the perfect wedding dress. 

After taking a gander around the store, the media personality, who currently boasts 2.6 million followers on Instagram, found a stunning gown placed on a mannequin. 

The star only tried the dress on once and put a down payment on the item for the upcoming ceremony that is just around the corner.  

The big purchase comes nearly one week after Chrisean announced on her Instagram stories that she was pregnant and was ‘deciding to keep’ the baby.   

Possible groom: Although the TikTok star did not disclose who the groom was, there is a possibility she is marrying boyfriend, Blueface, despite their rather tumultuous relationship and past domestic violence allegations; the two seen in June 2022 in Houston 

The Disrespectful rapper claimed on Twitter that he was not the father, and additionally, was no longer dating the star.

Blueface, whose real name is Johnathan Porter, penned, ‘To answer y’all questions yes me an rock are officially done it’s strictly business I tried it an clearly it wasn’t giving before she announces…she’s pregnant with somebody else’s child not mine (praying hands emoji).’ 

The music artist claimed Chrisean had been with 10 different men and that he won’t believe the baby is his until he sees the results of a DNA test. He is already father to five-year-old son, Javaughn, from a previous relationship.

Chrisean responded to that with, ‘Promise you. I don’t need a cent from u . Then wen we do a DNA test and it’s yours just know I’ll tell my children you died so u wouldn’t have a excuse to be in the child life. This my baby n dats dat.’

Blueface then went on to share video of his 26th birthday celebrations on Instagram stories even as Chrisean wrote, ‘Happy Birthday Baby Daddy’ on Twitter. 

Baby news: The wedding dress purchase comes nearly one week after Chrisean announced on her Instagram stories that she was pregnant and was, ‘deciding to keep it’

Denial: After the media personality revealed the baby news on Instagram, the rapper denied that the child was his 

In the clips shared onto her Instagram story, the media star could be seen wearing a hot pink track suit during a visit to the doctor. The influencer said, ‘I want either twins or triplets,’ and seems to be referring to past abortions when she said, ’cause that’s how many I killed.

‘I’m going to have a family, and we’re going to have the big baby shower… (sobs) so pray for me,’ she continued to explain to her fans.

Shortly before the pregnancy announcement, both Chrisean and Blueface, who star in their own reality show titled Crazy In Love, sat down for an interview with Revolt TV’s The Jason Lee Show earlier this month. 

The TikTok personality opened up about her relationship with the rapper, and expressed, ‘He feels like home to me,’ adding that, ‘God will send people throughout my life; he has just been my destination.’ 

However, the two have had past altercations, including last month in December when they both jumped onto social media to seemingly show the aftermath of a fight. The rapper could be seen with two black eyes, which he had allegedly gotten from Chrisean. 

Excited: The influencer said ‘I want either twins or triplets,’ and seems to be referring to past abortions when she say ’cause that’s how many I killed’ 

Tumultuous relationship: The TikTok personality opened up about her relationship with the rapper, and expressed that, ‘He feels like home to me,’ on Revolt TV’s The Jason Lee Show earlier this month; the couple seen in June 2022 in Beverly Hills 

Volatile past: Last month in December, the two stars jumped onto social media to seemingly show the aftermath of a fight with the rapper showing two black eyes, which he had allegedly gotten from Chrisean

According to TMZ, Chrisean was also seen getting into a ‘brawl’ with two women as she tried to get to Blueface after crashing his 26th birthday party on Saturday, shortly after her pregnancy announcement. 

The incident reportedly occurred just one block away from the rapper’s house, and ended with the two stars returning to their separate vehicles. 

‘For me, I know when I do fight [Blueface], I be immature for real. It be on some immature s**t,’ the TikTok star admitted during the interview, later adding, ‘Me? I will drink, go Live, go crazy, and slap him real quick here and there. Other than that, we on to something.’ 

Blueface also commented on Chrisean and stated that, ‘She is just the best worst thing that could happen to you.’ 

Two months earlier in November, the Holy Moly rapper was arrested on attempted murder charges for shooting at a truck driver along the Las Vegas strip. The musical artist expressed, ‘I only play defense,’ on the topic. His court date is reportedly scheduled for later this month in January. 

Chrisean defended Blueface, explaining that he, ‘is not a bad person. He’s not an abuser. We’re just here learning, figuring things out. We met each other how we met each other, but that’s it.’

Bumping along! Teigen – who’s been married to Legend since 2013 – documented her latest pregnancy on social media with plenty of bump updates

Chrissy announced she was expecting on Instagram back in August, posting photos of her blossoming baby bump.

The happy news came nearly two years after she and John lost their son Jack 20 weeks into her pregnancy. She later revealed that her late son’s passing was the result of a life-saving abortion, not a miscarriage as she originally stated.

She explained that she made the ‘difficult decision’ to terminate the pregnancy after coming to terms with the fact that she nor Jack would likely survive. 

‘Let’s just call it what it was: It was an abortion. An abortion to save my life for a baby that had absolutely no chance. And to be honest, I never, ever put that together until, actually, a few months ago,’ confessed Chrissy, according to THR.

Pamela Anderson claims Sylvester Stallone offered ‘condo and Porsche’ to be his ‘number one girl’

Pamela Anderson sensationally claims Sylvester Stallone offered her a ‘condo and a Porsche to be his number one girl ‘ in searing scenes from her documentary, Pamela, a Love Story.

The Baywatch star, 55, whose tell-all documentary will drop on Netflix on January 31, says she spurned the Rocky icon, 76, as she was looking for real love – but Stallone has branded the claims ‘false and fabricated.’

The New York Post reports Pamela says in the film: ‘He offered me a condo and a Porsche to be his No. 1 girl.

Oh my! Pamela Anderson sensationally claims Sylvester Stallone offered her a ‘condo and a Porsche to be his number one girl ‘ in searing scenes from her documentary, Pamela, a Love Story (pictured 2007)

‘And I was like, “Does that mean there’s No. 2? Uh-uh.”‘.

She claims Stallone retorted: ‘That’s the best offer you’re gonna get, honey. You’re in Hollywood now.’

She added: ‘I wanted to be in love. I didn’t want anything less than that.’

It is not clear when the alleged incident took place – she shot to fame on Baywatch in 1992 and she and Stallone happily posed up together at an event in 2007.

Spurned: She claims Stallone retorted: ‘That’s the best offer you’re gonna get, honey. You’re in Hollywood now’ – but the actor has denied her claims (pictured 2007)

Stallone’s representative told the publication: ‘The statement from Pamela Anderson attributed to my client is false and fabricated. Mr. Stallone confirms that he never made any portion of that statement.’

Anderson has also been opening up about her current contact with ex Tommy Lee, 60, in a candid chat on Howard Stern’s SiriusXM show on Wednesday. The pair were married from 1995-1998.

She said: ‘Just a text here and there, nothing too crazy, he’s married and happy and she’s good to him and I want to support that.’

She added: ‘I hate to be annoying and go through that again and I’m sure she’s annoyed, but respect their relationship and I’m glad he’s happy and has someone in his life.

‘They see each other all the time. This movie is like a love letter to their parents, they know they came from real love and they get to see the real story 

‘The sex tape took its toll on the relationship, it took its toll on my career and people are still capitalizing off that.’

Happier times: Anderson has also been opening up about her current contact with ex Tommy Lee, 60, in a candid chat on Howard Stern’s SiriusXM show on Wednesday (pictured 1995)

The star also slated acclaimed Hulu series Pam & Tommy, which starred Lily James and Sebastian Stan.

She said: ‘I remember seeing this advert for Pam & Tommy and was like, what? No-one called me, I’m still alive, no-one asked me, it’s nothing to do with me.

‘I felt kinda run over by that one. I don’t think they portrayed Tommy or I very accurately. I haven’t seen it but I’ve heard from people that it’s a very shallow representation of us. I wish they would’ve called.

‘I don’t think I would have wanted to be involved, especially with that subject matter, why? Why bring it all up again. 

The blonde bombshell’s forthcoming documentary follows her rise to fame, relationships and the sex scandal ‘in her own words,’ according to a Netflix synopsis. 

According to Entertainment Tonight, Pamela explained in the film that she had ‘nightmares,’ when her sons Brandon, 26, and Dylan, 25, had informed her that a series was being made based on her and ex-husband, Tommy Lee’s, ‘stolen tape.’ 

The star further admitted, ‘I have no desire to watch it. I never watched the tape, I’m never going to watch this.’ 

The ‘home videos’ had been stolen from a safe located in Pamela and Tommy’s garage during their marriage, and put together to create the infamous ‘sex tape,’ that caused a media frenzy. 

True love: She said: ‘Just a text here and there, nothing too crazy, he’s married and happy and she’s good to him and I want to support that (the former couple seen in 1997)

‘What they did is they found all the nudity they could from different Hi8 tapes, and they spliced it together,’ the actress stated in the documentary.   

The show followed their tumultuous relationship, along with the ‘stolen tapes.’ 

After the final episode aired in March 2022, the series received critical acclaim, along with garnering a total of ten Primetime Emmy nominations and four Golden Globe nominations. 

However, in the Netflix documentary, Pamela reveals that she wasn’t a fan that the series was made, and her two sons, whom she shares with Tommy, also supported their mother. 

‘Why bring something up from 20 years ago that you know f***ed someone up?’ Dylan, her youngest, could be seen asking in the film. ‘The worst part of her life and making a semi-comedy out of it didn’t make sense.’ 

Pamela continued to voice her opinion, expressing that her ‘permission’ should have been asked to create the show, adding that, ‘nobody really knows what we were going through at the time.’ 

When further recalling the past incident, she stated, ‘I blocked that out of my life. I had to in order to survive, really. It was a survival mechanism. And now that it’s all coming up again, I feel sick.’

Pamela added in the documentary excerpt, ‘This feels like when the tape was stolen. Basically, you’re just a thing owned by the world, like you belong to the world.’ 

The former model previously announced the news of the forthcoming documentary by uploading a picture on Instagram of a handwritten note with the Netflix logo at the very top, along with a lipstick kiss mark at the bottom.

The Baywatch actress wrote, ‘My life/ A thousand imperfections/ A million misperceptions/ Wicked, wild and lost/ Nothing to live up to /I can only surprise you /Not a victim, but a survivor /And alive to tell the real story,’ followed by her signature. 

In an excerpt shared by People earlier last week from her memoir, Love, Pamela, the star opened up about her marriage to Tommy, and the effect of the ‘stolen tapes.’ 

The blonde bombshell and Motley Crue drummer had initially tied the knot in 1995, even though the two had only known each other for a total of four days. ‘We just wanted to have babies and be together forever,’ she had written.

She said: ‘I felt kinda run over by that one. I don’t think they portrayed Tommy or I very accurately. I haven’t seen it but I’ve heard from people that it’s a very shallow representation of us. I wish they would’ve called’

‘My relationship with Tommy may have been the only time I was ever truly in love,’ Pamela added. 

When talking about the sex tape scandal, she emotionally penned, ‘It ruined lives, starting with our relationship,’ adding that it was, ‘unforgivable that people, still to this day, think they can profit from such a terrible experience, let alone a crime.’ 

Towards the end of their marriage, Tommy had been arrested due to ‘spousal abuse’ and served six months in a Los Angeles County Jail in 1998. She recalled the incident that had made her call the police, explaining that the drummer had ‘twisted her arm’ while she was holding their son Dylan.

‘Tommy ripped Brandon off me and threw me and Dylan into a wall,’ she penned in the memoir, adding that, ‘Our hell began.’

Later that same year, their divorce was finalized, which Pamela wrote, ‘was the hardest, lowest, most difficult point of my life. I was crushed. I still couldn’t believe that the person I loved the most was capable of what had happened that night.’

The star added that, ‘We were both devastated, but I had to protect my babies,’ and despite their past, they still, ‘check in, every once in a while,’ with each other.

Claims: In another excerpt shared by Variety, Pamela made claims that actor Tim Allen flashed his genitals to her more than 30 years ago; the actor seen in December 2022 in West Hollywood

In another excerpt shared by Variety, Pamela made claims that actor Tim Allen flashed his genitals to her more than 30 years ago. 

‘I would never do such a thing,’ Allen, 69, told the outlet earlier Sunday, saying that the incident Anderson described ‘never happened.’

The actress claimed that the incident occurred on the set of Home Improvement in 1991 when she was 23-years-old and he was 37. ‘On the first day of filming, I walked out of my dressing room, and Tim was in the hallway in his robe,’ said Anderson, who played the role of Lisa on the ABC sitcom, which starred Allen as Tim Taylor.

She continued, ‘He opened his robe and flashed me quickly – completely naked underneath.’

Anderson, who had previously posed for Playboy magazine, continued to describe the circumstances of the encounter: ‘He said it was only fair, because he had seen me naked. Now we’re even. I laughed uncomfortably.’ 

Striking down: ‘I would never do such a thing,’ Allen, 69, told the outlet earlier Sunday, saying that the incident Anderson described ‘never happened’; Tim and Pamela seen in set of Home Improvement in 1992

Tom Cruise lands in London via helicopter – just before Top Gun sequel nabbed SIX Oscar nominations

Tom Cruise lands in London via helicopter – just before Top Gun sequel nabbed SIX Oscar nominations including coveted Best Picture nod

Tom Cruise was spotted in London just before it was announced his epic action film Top Gun: Maverick had received six Oscar nominations, including the coveted Best Picture nod.

The actor, 60, who plays an expert pilot in the Top Gun films, was spotted landing his helicopter in the metropolis late last night on Tuesday. 

While Top Gun: Maverick failed to receive any acting nominations, it did receive the nominations for best adapted screenplay, visual effects, best sound, best original song, and best film editing.

The sky’s the limit! Tom Cruise was spotted in London just before it was announced his epic action film Top Gun: Maverick had received six Oscar nominations, including the coveted Best Picture nod

Tom was spotted arriving into London bundled up in a black jacket, jeans, and boots. He rocked a head full of shaggy black hair which was noticeably longer than the cut he sported in the Top Gun sequel.

The actor, who is also a licensed pilot, was seen mid-air as he landed his chopper with a co-pilot by his side.

Once he successfully landed the chopper, he emerged from the vehicle and spoke with several men standing on the tarmac.

Afterwards, he was photographed emerging from the terminal with a smile on his face.

Danger Zone! Cruise was spotted landing the helicopter with a co-pilot by his side 

Cruise grinned and waved as he made his way outside with a backpack slung over a single shoulder.

That smile likely widened once Cruise learned of the six Oscar nominations his wildly successful Top Gun sequel had received.

The movie starring Cruise is nominated for Best Picture along with Elvis, Avatar: The Way of Water, All Quiet on the Western Front and The Fabelmans at the 95th Academy Awards, which will be hosted on March 12 by Jimmy Kimmel.

While Cruise missed out on a nomination for Best Actor, the nomination for Best Picture could bring him his first Academy Award. 

Walk this way: He strode out of the terminal wearing rugged black boots

Top Gun: Maverick was one of the highest grossing films of the last few years and was released 36 years after audiences first saw Cruise play Navy aviator Pete Mitchell.

Now, decades after the events of the original, Pete has been tasked with preparing Top Gun graduates for a high-risk mission. The team includes Lt. Bradley ‘Rooster’ Bradshaw (Miles Teller), the son of Pete’s late best friend Goose.

The film raked in $1.489bn at the box office last summer and was nominated for numerous Critics Choice Awards, picking up the gong for Best Cinematography.

Taking care of business: Cruise spoke with several men on the tarmac after landing the chopper 

The action-packed flick is also Cruise’s most successful time of all time.

The film was originally supposed to be released in June 2020, though Paramount decided to hold off on the release until more fans are able to return, a move that clearly paid off.

‘I’m gratified we made this decision to hang on. This movie is going to have a huge run. It’s going to draw people to theaters who haven’t been in a long time,’ predicted Paramount’s domestic distribution chief Chris Aronson in a statement.

Alec Baldwin is slammed for caption with ‘sexually suggestive innuendo’ about son and wife

Alec Baldwin has been criticised over a bizarre Instagram post – his first since it emerged he will be charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter.

Just days after prosecutors revealed plans to hold him responsible for the accidental killing of Halyna Hutchins in October 2021, the actor, 64, left followers perplexed over his latest Instagram caption.

Under a sweet photo of his son holding his mother’s shoulders as they sat on their living room floor, the Golden Globe winner sent trolls into a frenzy as he suggested his little boy was pulling ‘the old let me give you a back rub ploy’ on mom Hilaria Baldwin.

The public post came just hours after Boston-born Hilaria was ridiculed for slipping into an ‘offensive’ Spanish accent while asking photographers to leave her kids alone in wake of Alec’s charge.

Bizarre: Alec Baldwin has come under fire for his first Instagram post since he was charged with involuntary manslaughter for the accidental killing of Halyna Hutchins 

Odd: Just days after prosecutors revealed plans to hold him responsible for the fatal on-set shooting of Rust’s cinematographer in October 2021, the actor, 64, left followers perplexed over his latest Instagram caption

‘Imagine being indicted for involuntary manslaughter and the first post you make after the announcement includes a picture of your attention-seeking wife, posed with your young son, and captioned with a sexually suggestive innuendo,’ one critic asked in the comment section.  

Another wrote: ‘Does anyone else think this is creepy af with the caption? Pic is sweet. Caption makes it weird.’ 

A third commenter wrote: ‘Dude you need consult your team before you post man this does not help your case.’ 

One of Baldwin’s fans explained to the 30 Rock star that the ‘back rub ploy is a joke between grownups not mother/son.’ 

Others pleaded with the father-of-eight to stop being ‘problematic’ and to stop posting at all.

Yikes: Another wrote: ‘Does anyone else think this is creepy af with the caption? Pic is sweet. Caption makes it weird’

No more: Others pleaded with the father-of-eight to stop being ‘problematic’ and to stop posting at all

Still, others found the caption innocuous, and implied her son was just buttering up his mom for ‘ice cream after 9pm’

‘Sexualizing children is always so weird but your own child? Yikes,’ another user remarked.

Still, others found the caption innocuous, and implied her son was just buttering up his mom for ‘ice cream after 9pm.’ 

Last week, sources claimed Alec is ‘trying to stay strong’ for his kids after being charged with involuntary manslaughter over the death of Halyna Hutchins.

Fighting to clear his name: As for his legal woes, Alec has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing over Hutchins’ passing and insisted that Assistant Director Dave Halls said he was being handed a ‘cold’ gun – meaning it was unloaded and safe (seen in 2019)

The cinematographer was killed when a prop gun went off during rehearsals on the set of the upcoming Western movie in October 2021 and now the 64-year-old actor – who is married to Hilaria Baldwin and has Carmen Gabriela, nine, Rafael Thomas, seven, Leonardo Ángel Charles, six, Romeo Alejandro David, four, Eduardo Pao Lucas, two, and daughters Ilaria Catalina Irena, three months with her – but is said to be ‘focused’ on his children and ‘leaning’ on his wife as they come to terms with the charges.

An insider told People: ‘They were prepared for all outcomes, but nothing can quite prepare you for this. They are really leaning on each other and trying to keep their focus on the kids. Hilaria has been Alec’s rock throughout all of this, and to see him so distraught is heartbreaking for her. She is doing whatever she can to support him and they’re doing their best to stay strong for the kids.’

The film’s head armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, faces the same charge, and both face a maximum of five years in prison if found guilty.

Santa Fe’s District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwies said the charges will be filed by the end of the month.

She added in a statement: ‘Actor and producer Alec Baldwin and armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed will each be charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter.

‘After a thorough review of the evidence… I have determined that there is sufficient evidence.

‘On my watch, no one is above the law, and everyone deserves justice.’

Assistant Director Dave Halls has agreed a plea deal on the charge of negligent use of a deadly weapon. He will receive six months probation and a suspended prison sentence.

Alec has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and said Dave said it was a ‘cold’ gun – meaning it was unloaded and safe – when he handed him the weapon.

Hannah was not present when the incident occurred, but the actor previously suggested she bare some responsibility as it was her job to prepare and check the props.

The ’30 Rock’ star previously insisted he did not pull the trigger when Halyna was shot, but the FBI tested the weapon and later issued a report which concluded it would not have fired if someone hadn’t pulled the trigger.

Halyna’s death was previously ruled an accident but her family filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Alec and others involved in the production.

The lawsuit was settled last October, and it was agreed filming would resume on ‘Rust’, with the cinematographer’s widower, Matthew Hutchins, on board as an executive producer.

Matthew previously said he has ‘no interest’ in apportioning blame for his wife’s tragic death and wants to pay tribute to Halyna’s ‘final work’.

In a statement, he said: ‘We have reached a settlement, subject to court approval, for our wrongful death case against the producers of ‘Rust’, including Alec Baldwin and Rust Movie Productions, LLC. As part of that settlement, our case will be dismissed.

‘The filming of Rust, which I will now executive produce, will resume with all the original principal players on board in January 2023.

‘I have no interest in engaging in recriminations or attribution of blame (to the producers or Mr. Baldwin).

‘All of us believe Halyna’s death was a terrible accident. I am grateful that the producers and the entertainment community have come together to pay tribute to Halyna’s final work.’

Alec also sued four crew members – Hannah, Dave, Sarah Zachry and Seth Kenney – claiming they failed to safeguard the film set.
