Project Hail Mary is still dominating the box office for a second weekend—looks like people can’t get enough of astronauts saving the world… or maybe they just like Ryan Gosling in a spacesuit.
Sad news from Lake Placid—James Tolkan has passed away. You know him as Vice Principal Strickland from Back to the Future and Commander “Stinger” in *Top Gun.” The guy served in the Navy, had a long theater career, and was married to Parmelee Welles for 54 years. That’s a heck of a legacy.
Tiger Woods… yep, he’s in trouble again after a DUI crash. And girlfriend Vanessa Trump is apparently giving him a major ultimatum: get your life together, or it’s over. Sounds like Tiger’s not just dodging cones on the golf course anymore.
Meanwhile, Britney Spears seems to be thriving. She posted a sunny yacht clip with her sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James, set to LL Cool J’s “Doin’ It.” Word is, she’s been sober and just enjoying life. Mom vibes = strong.
Alan Ritchson is out there clearing the air after a fight with his neighbor. No charges, but the neighbor got over 100 death threats… proving once again, some Hollywood fans are way too into their stars.
Joe Exotic tried to overturn his murder-for-hire conviction from 2019. No dice. Now his only hope is a presidential pardon… so fingers crossed for him, or maybe just not.
Travis Kelce is swapping the end zone for the runway—or at least part of it. He’s now Tommy Hilfiger’s global brand ambassador and creative collaborator, putting his own spin on classic styles. Football meets fashion… who saw that coming?
On the muscle front, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s son Joseph Baena just won his first bodybuilding competition. Arnold was there cheering him on. The kid’s got guns, and clearly, dad’s approval.
Royal family alert: Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie are leaning on Kate Middleton as tensions rise over possible title changes, while Prince Harry is reportedly freaking out over Meghan Markle’s alleged “raunchy” acting comeback. Yep, still a full-on soap opera.
Howie Mandel apologized to Kelly Ripa for a little awkward “for your age” moment on live TV. He said she was right… and yes, he does look great at 70. Classic Howie: funny but humble.
And finally, Tomb Raider production is paused for two weeks after Sophie Turner got injured. Crew still getting paid, which honestly… makes the rest of us feel a little underpaid for just showing up.
