Austin Butler can’t help falling in love with his character.

Although it’s been more than a year since Elvis finished wrapping, moviegoers are finally going to see the actor’s big-screen transformation into Elvis Presley when the film hits theaters on June 24.

Ahead of the big release, fans have been noticing Austin displaying an Elvis accent in interviews. When asked if he has noticed a change in his speaking voice, the 30-year-old agreed that there’s been a difference.

“I hear that a lot, but I didn’t do anything else for two years [apart from working on Elvis], that’s such a large chunk of life,” he told Elle Australia. “I’m not surprised that it clicks in.”

He continued, “Because I’m a shy person, and when I know that there’s bits of Elvis that I’d have to click into in order to go out on stage and be in front of a ton of people, being surrounded by his name everywhere, there’s triggers. You spend so much time obsessing about one thing, and it really is like muscular habits, your mouth can change.”

What’s not to love about this news?

Serena Williams is coming back to Wimbledon. The Championships announced on June 14 that the seven-time winner is receiving a wild card to play singles in what will be her 21st Wimbledon appearance.

The GOAT, 40, hinted at the big news in a post shared to Instagram, uploading a photo that showed her standing on a grass court, a key Wimbledon feature, in her Nike sneakers with her Wilson tennis racket bag nearby. In addition to tagging her team—including her trainer and hitting partner—Williams tagged Wimbledon’s official Instagram account. 

“SW and SW19,” she wrote in the cryptic caption, referencing her initials and the postal code for the All England Lawn Tennis & Croquet Club (where the tournament is held). “It’s a date. 2022 See you there. Let’s Go #renasarmy.” 

After seeing Williams’ post, Wimbledon responded with a message of its own: “It’s on, @serenawilliams.” And her husband Alexis Ohanian, with who she shares 4-year-old daughter Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr., celebrated with a series of clapping emojis underneath Williams’ post, writing “LFG.”

This news isn’t going down smooth like butter.

BTS‘s band members—who include RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook—announced they are taking a hiatus in a video posted to social media on June 14.

“We’re each going to take some time to have fun and experience lots of things,” Jungkook said. “We promise we will return someday, even more mature than we are now.” 

While the K-pop stars didn’t note how long the hiatus will last, they expressed their desire to explore solo projects. “I always thought that BTS was different from other groups, but the problem with K-pop and the whole idol system is that they don’t give you time to mature,” RM said per NME’s translation. “You have to keep producing music and keep doing something.”

Still, the decision wasn’t an easy one. “We can’t help but think of our fans no matter what, we want to be the kind of artists that are remembered by our fans. I think now we’re starting to think about what kind of artists we each want to be remembered by our fans,” Jimin added. “I think that’s why we’re going through a rough patch right now, we’re trying to find our identity and that’s an exhausting and long process.”

Dove Cameron continues to be proud of living her most authentic self.

Back in 2020, the “Boyfriend” singer identified herself as “super queer” during an Instagram live stream. Come June 2021, she came out again, more visibly, on the cover of Gay Times.

When looking back on her journey into the LGBTQ+ community, the 26-year-old says those candid discussions were nothing short of life changing.

“I honestly look back at that first initial foray into the conversation about my sexuality as my first time ever really being myself publicly,” she exclusively shared with E! News. “I think there’s this narrative where if you are a queer person and you speak about your identity, its though you’ve been sitting on a secret your whole life and it’s this big revelation. Where in my experience, it wasn’t a revelation. I always knew who I was. Ever since I can remember, I knew I was queer.”

The Teen Mom community has lost one of its own.

Lane Fernandez, who was featured on seasons two and three of MTV‘s Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant with his ex Malorie Beaver and her sister Rachel Beaver, died at the age of 28, his wife Kylee Rose Fernandez announced on Facebook June 13. “I’m so lost without you babe.. I love you to the moon and back and I know you’re watching out for us,” she wrote alongside photos of Lane and their newborn son Nolyn. “I will forever miss you. It’s always been you.”

In addition to Nolyn, who was born on May 22, Lane is also dad to daughter Emerson, 3, who he shares with his ex Malorie.

“Nolyn, Emerson, and I love you so much and you were an amazing father, dog dad, and husband,” Kylee continued her Facebook message. “You’ll forever be my rock, and my best friend. I miss you more than anything baby.” 

Kylee did not share more details about Lane’s passing and the Tennessee native’s cause of death has not been made public at this time.

Charlie Sheen has some thoughts on his daughter’s OnlyFans profile.

After Sami Sheen promoted her OnlyFans account on Instagram on June 13, Charlie is sharing his disapproval on the 18-year-old’s choice to join the adult platform.

“I do not condone this,” Charlie told E! News in a statement, “but since I’m unable to prevent it, I urged her to keep it classy, creative and not sacrifice her integrity.”

The Two and a Half Men actor also alleged that Sami’s OnlyFans page was created while staying at his ex-wife Denise Richards‘ house.

“She is 18 years old now and living with her mother,” Charlie said. “This did not occur under my roof.”

In response, Denise told E! News that Sami’s choices are her own.

“Sami is 18, and this decision wasn’t based on whose house she lives in,” Denise said. “All I can do as a parent is guide her and trust her judgement, but she makes her own choices.”

Though Larsa Pippen may be on the outs with the Kardashians, she is keeping up with one of their exes. 

The Real Housewives of Miami star—who earlier this year got candid about the “demise” of her friendship with Kim Kardashian—addressed recent photos of herself hanging out with Kourtney Kardashian‘s ex Scott Disick. 

Larsa and Scott were photographed lounging in Miami together in April, as seen in photos obtained by The Daily Mail. (At the time, he was seeing Rebecca Donaldson, though sources recently told E! News that they’ve gone their separate ways.)

Now, Larsa is explaining her hangout with the Flip It Like Disick star, telling the Two T’s In A Pod podcast, “We’ve been friends forever. We always stay in touch. Our kids are really close.”

As for how their meetup came to be, she recalled, “He was in Miami, so he was texting me, like, ‘Hey, come over. Let’s go to dinner or let’s go to the pool.’ I had just finished filming and I was five minutes away from his hotel, and so I went over to say hi to him.” 

Morgan Stewart is happy with a family of four. 

While making her return to E!’s Nightly Pop on June 13 following maternity leave, Morgan revealed that she and husband Jordan McGraw won’t be making any more additions to their brood.

“No more babies,” Morgan said. “I want to say this here. Vasectomy has happened. We didn’t f–k around.”

Morgan, who welcomed baby boy Grey Oliver McGraw on February 17 a year after giving birth to baby girl Row Renggli McGraw, said she went to the appointment with Jordan, which led co-host Nina Parker to ask, “Was it painful?”

As co-host Hunter March sat in stunned silence, Morgan said, “It was 10 minutes. It was no big deal. Men are such f–king babies. I pushed out two humans in four minutes and he was like, ‘I have to shave what?’ And I was like, ‘Are you kidding?'”

Still, it didn’t prevent Hunter from sending well wishes, saying, “I just want to send my condolences to Jordan.”

Sophia Bush is married!

The One Tree Hill alum has married entrepreneur Grant Hughes in his home state of Oklahoma, nearly a year after the two got engaged, the Tulsa City County Clerk’s Office first told People.

The clerk tells E! News that a marriage license was issued to Bush, 39, and Hughes, 40, on June 8. It was returned to the court, but it was not completed, so the clerk issued a duplicate. They must return the revised license to the court by July 8 for the marriage to be officially legal.

A notice about their wedding was published in the city’s calendar of special events. It stated that 250 people were expected to attend the bash at the Philbrook Museum of Art on June 11.

While the guest list was not made public, earlier this week, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who is married to Bush’s former One Tree Hill co-star Hilarie Burton and in 2020 had the bride on as the couple’s guest on their show Friday Night in with the Morgans, was spotted in Tulsa with his former Supernatural co-star Jensen Ackles. The actors got tattoos at Colour Studios, as seen in photos posted on the shop’s Instagram page, and also rode scooters together.
