Jennifer Lopez is ready to tell all (she wants to, anyway) about her three-day Georgia wedding to Ben Affleck. The singer sent out a new On the JLo newsletter, featuring select photos of her and Affleck from the ceremony and details on all the festivities, from ceremony to reception to day-after brunch.

She wrote that Affleck used the line, “This is heaven. Right Here. We’re in it now,” during his wedding speech and that despite rain and some unexpected incidents during the celebration, Lopez believed their official wedding for family and friends would be perfect.

“The truth is, I never had one doubt,” she wrote. “All week I felt the calm and easy certainty that we were in God’s hands…”

The sky cleared just in time for the ceremony, “and, at long-last, I started my walk down the stairs that would become the aisle that would lead me toward the rest of my life. Ahhhhh…it was actually happening…” Lopez recalled.

“Ben and I talked about Marc Cohn’s ‘True Companion’ as the perfect wedding love song in this very house more than twenty years ago,” she continued. “Though Ben didn’t know, I asked Marc to surprise him by singing it at our wedding and he was lovely and generous to come. As I walked down the aisle, the first song he played wasn’t ‘True Companion’ however. It was his ‘The Things We’ve Handed Down’—a song about the wonderful mystery of children—something we could only guess at back then, but it was the perfect choice as our five children preceded me on the walk. The twenty years between those dreams of youth and the adult world of love and family we embraced that day, brought more to this marriage than either of us ever could have imagined. We weren’t only marrying one another; we were marrying these children into a new family. They were the only people we asked to stand up for us in our wedding party. To our great honor and joy, each one did.”

“As the eldest of our children finished her walk, Marc began ‘True Companion,’ a song we first listened to together what seemed both like yesterday and forever ago—and life came, strangely, beautifully, mysteriously, divinely full-circle,” Lopez reflected.

“Later Ben told me that the chords of the song and seeing Marc Cohn both shocked him and allowed him to feel the way both roads we had walked found their way, inevitably, inexorably, and perfectly together,” she continued. “And when he saw me appear at the top of the stairs that moment it both made absolute sense while seeming still impossibly hard to believe, like the best dream, where all you want is never to awaken. I would have had many of the same thoughts probably had I not been focusing so hard on not tripping over my dress, but when I got close enough to see his face, it made the same wonderful sense to me. Some old wounds were healed that day and the weight of the past finally lifted off our shoulders. Full-circle—and not at all the way we planned it. Better.”

Lopez teased that she would send decor details out in future emails (she designed it, and “the vibes were down-home, rustic country-chic”). Photos shared in her email showcased reception fireworks and different table setting styles, from all white and green for the wedding to different shades of pink for the rehearsal dinner.

Ariana Grande was recently promoting her new makeup line R.E.M. beauty, which is currently selling at Ulta Beauty and Selfridges. On August 26, she posted some photos and a short video of herself leaving the famous London department store wearing a fun vintage-style look from Prada.

She wore a black bandeau top that left her shoulders and abs bare, which she paired with an A-line skirt in a green checkered pattern that swept down to her ankles. The skirt is from Prada’s spring/summer 2022 collection. Co-creative directors Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons want the pieces to have a modern appeal while playing with the dressy cuts of more historical looks.

Under the hem, Grande wore a pair of black pumps to complete the entire ensemble’s hint of glamour. In the video, she is carrying one of the well-known yellow Selfridges bag and approaches an SUV with an ad for her makeup line printed on the door. In a carousel of pics on her timeline, she showed off the look, turning to flash her shoulder tattoo to the camera.

Grande had her brunette locks swept back into a ponytail with a side part and some long soft bangs along one side of her face. She kept her makeup very natural, with light eyeshadow and a nude lip.

The singer and actress has been working on the film adaptation of the musical Wicked and promoting her line, but that doesn’t mean a new album is off the table. While posting about her R.E.M. line in late July, a fan on TikTok warned the pop icon, “Pls remember you’re a singer.”

Grande responded, writing in a comment, “I have actually never felt more at home in my voice or like more of a singer.”

Though she’s clearly comfortable standing up for herself, Grande took a moment to thank the other fans who defended her, writing back, “Love u so much.”

Gomez and Morticia Addams’s demon spawn—sorry, daughter—is finally getting the spotlight she deserves. Wednesday Addams, the death-obsessed teen whose idea of a lazy summer Friday involves electrocuting her brother, is headed to Netflix later this year, with You actress Jenna Ortega in the lead role. Judging by the new teaser, Netflix is going all-in on the macabre delights of everyone’s favorite goth. That’s no surprise given that Tim Burton is attached to direct; based on his previous work, we have a good idea of the show’s grim-meets-kooky aesthetic.

Wednesday, billed by Netflix as “a sleuthing, supernaturally infused mystery,” will follow the Addams’s only daughter as she attends the boarding school Nevermore Academy, where she juggles her newfound psychic powers and a supernatural murder mystery connected to her own family. Ahead, everything we know about Wednesday’s solo treatment.

When will the show come out?

Although an official release date has yet to be announced, Netflix revealed the series will arrive in “fall 2022.” Given the theme, we suspect October.

Who’s in the cast?

Apart from Ortega in the lead role, Netflix has announced a number of other exciting cast additions:

• Catherine Zeta-Jones will appear throughout the series as Morticia, the Addams family matriarch and Wednesday’s mother.
• Victor Dorobantu will play Thing, the severed hand and servant seen in the teaser trailer.
• George Burcea will play Lurch, the towering family manservant.
• Isaac Ordonez will play Gomez and Morticia’s son, Pugsley.
• Luis Guzmán will guest star as Gomez, the Addams family patriarch and Wednesday’s father.
• Other actors with as-yet-unannounced roles include Gwendoline Christie, Jamie McShane, Emma Myers, Percy Hynes White, Moosa Mostafa, Thora Birch, Hunter Doohan, Riki Lindhome, Joy Sunday, Georgie Farmer, and Naomi Ogawa.
• Christina Ricci, who played Wednesday in the early ’90s films The Addams Family and Addams Family Values, will also appear in an undisclosed role.

Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams.

What is Wednesday based on?

Like the films, TV series, and theatrical adaptations before it, Wednesday is based partly on the New Yorker cartoons first introduced by Charles Addams in 1938, further popularized in the 1960s by the sitcom adaptation The Addams Family. Based on the latter’s success, the family’s misadventures quickly became a franchise: A cartoon series arrived in the 1970s, followed by The Addams Family live-action movie in 1991, for which a sequel, Addams Family Values, landed in 1993. Both live-action and animated versions of the family continued the legacy, and then a 2010 Broadway musical, The Addams Family Musical, arrived to lackluster critical reception. Finally, two animated films were released in 2019 and 2021. This large canon serves as the backbone of Wednesday.

Will there be more than one season?

No word yet from Netflix, but given the buzz around Wednesday’s launch, there’s a solid chance it’ll be a hit—and in that case, expect season 2 news forthcoming.

This post will be updated.

The beloved Netflix series that catapulted Maitreyi Ramakrishnan into teen stardom is nearing its end: According to Ramakrishnan herself, the cast finished filming the fourth and final season. On August 3, 2022, the actress tweeted, “we wrapped filming!! It’s all done! I feel so grateful and overwhelmed with emotions.” In a profile with ELLE, she shared that finishing the series that took her from a real Canadian high school to the fictional Sherman Oaks set was bittersweet. “It’s like your first dog,” she said. “It doesn’t mean I’ll love the other dogs less. But Never Have I Ever will always be the first one.”

The show, created by Mindy Kaling and Lang Fisher, follows Indian-American teenager Devi Vishwakumar (Ramakrishnan) throughout her high school years, meaning the final season is expected to take place as Devi prepares for graduation. With season 3 having just arrived on Netflix, here’s what we know about the fourth and final chapter.

When will season 4 come out?

Deadline reports that the final season is expected in 2023. Given that season 4 has already wrapped filming, the last hurrah could arrive as early as next spring.

Why will season 4 be the show’s last?

Erin Underhill, president of Universal Television, gave a simple explanation as to why the show wouldn’t stretch beyond a four-season arc: High school isn’t, in fact, forever. “Four seasons of Never Have I Ever is truly exciting and a little bittersweet because, as a loyal fan, I’d love Devi’s journey to go on forever,” she said in a statement. “But just like high school, all great things must come to an end…We can’t wait to experience all of the messiness, the LOLs and the tears that will surely unfold in Devi’s senior year.”

Kaling and Fisher added that Never Have I Ever will be far from their last series. (Kaling’s raunchy dramedy The Sex Lives of College Girls is already a hit over on HBO Max). Said the pair, “We can’t wait to reveal all the steamy romance and hilarious adventures we have in store for you. Thanks to all our fans for your support.”

For her part, Ramakrishnan thanked audiences and promised to give the series finale her “all.” In a note posted to her social media, the lead actress said, “I am so proud of us all and everything this show has accomplished….Let’s do this one more time, yeah?”

Who will be in the cast?

Expect the usual players in season 4. Ramakrishnan, Jaren Lewison, Darren Barnet, Poorna Jagannathan, Ben Norris and other favorites are all confirmed to help stick the landing, with Lewison teasing to ELLE that the final season is “perfect.” “I think the way the writers approached this fourth season has been with such care and with such tenacious and meticulous planning that I think we all feel comforted by the fact that it was a perfect sendoff,” he said. “This fourth season is perfect.”

However, not everyone is set to return: Anirudh Pisharody, who played Devi’s new boyfriend, Des, in season 3, told People his character will not appear in the final chapter.

Who will win, Team Ben or Team Paxton?

The question of who will walk away with Devi’s heart has remained one of Never Have I Ever’s most pertinent since the beginning of season 1, with Barnet’s Paxton Hall-Yoshida and Lewison’s Ben Gross gathering vocal supporters in each of their corners. While Ramakrishnan remains staunchly “Team Devi”—and a new love interest in season 3 adds some extra drama to the mix—Fisher confirmed to ELLE that season 4 ends with a winner. “There is a choice. [Devi] makes a choice…The winner wins,” she says “The only problem with it is—now I’m learning, as we’re making season 4—I’m like, ‘One team is going to be real mad at me.’”

Katie Holmes and her new boyfriend Bobby Wooten III appeared on the red carpet together on Thursday, May 26. They were attending The Moth’s 25th Anniversary gala, The Silver Ball, held at Spring Studios in New York City. The 43-year-old Dawson’s Creek star stepped out with the 33-year-old Grammy nominee, getting affectionate in front of the cameras.

Holmes was wearing a long-sleeved orange gown with black patent leather heels, and carried a small black clutch with a gold frame. Her hair was loosely pulled back and she accessorized with dangling diamond drop earrings. Wooten wore a blue suit over a button-down black shirt, and a pair of black boots with a few silver rings on his hand.

Now that things are “red carpet official,” here’s everything we know about Bobby Wooten III, Katie Holmes’ new boyfriend.

Who is Bobby Wooten III?

Wooten grew up in Chicago, a midwesterner like Holmes, who is native to Toledo. The musician and composer is playing bass in Moulin Rouge! The Musical on Broadway at the moment, but he seems to have projects and performances popping up everywhere. At this year’s Coachella, Wooten performed with Carly Rae Jepsen, he was nominated for a Grammy Award, and is also an adjunct instructor at NYU Tisch School of the Arts.

A source told People that Wooten is “an amazing guy, very kind, super talented and just an all-around cool guy. He’s a highly accomplished bassist and musician, and is as chill and brilliant and funny as they come.”

Wooten was invited to The Moth’s Silver Ball because he worked with singer-songwriter David Byrne on the Broadway recording of American Utopia. Byrne was the evening’s honoree, and Wooten presented him with the award.

Wooten told Us Weekly, “I’m happy to have (Katie) here as my date.”

How did Bobby Wooten and Katie Holmes meet?

A source close to Holmes told E! News in early May that they were introduced through friends, adding that their relationship is “working well.”

“Katie is excited about seeing someone and is very happy,” they said. “She enjoys having someone in her life and he is very kind and good to her.”

Rumors of their relationship started in April, when they were seen kissing outside the subway while on their way to the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, where they kissed before heading inside, Us Weekly reports. It had been about a year since Holmes was romantically connected to anyone after breaking it off with chef Emilio Vitolo Jr., who she dated for a few months.

Holmes has said in the past that her priority is raising her daughter, 16-year-old Suri Cruise, who she shares with her ex-husband, Tom Cruise.

“My child is the most important person to me, and her upbringing is paramount to my work right now,” Holmes told Town & Country in 2017. “It’s very important that I’m present and she has a stable, innocent childhood. I feel so blessed to do what I do, but there’s nothing in the world better than watching your child succeed.”

When were Katie Holmes and Bobby Wooten last seen together?

On August 6, Holmes and Wooten were out in New York City again walking hand-in-hand through Washington Square Park. Holmes was wearing a tan jumpsuit with a halter neckline and a cinched waist over a pair of black sneakers. She left a her long brunette hair down and wore a pair of gold hoop earrings. Wooten wore a grey t-shirt with khakis and black leather shoes, and carried a canvas tote bag over one shoulder. This was two months after their debut on the red carpet at the Moth’s Silver Ball where Wooten presented singer-songwriter David Byrne with an award.

It’s almost as if Leslie Grace was destined to end up in Gotham.

The In the Heights star and Latin pop singer didn’t grow up reading DC comics or watching superhero shows, but she and her childhood best friend nicknamed themselves after the caped crusader and his sidekick. “We always got into trouble as kids, so we started calling each other Batman and Robin,” she previously told ELLE.com. So when she learned she was cast as Batgirl (amid a tight race for the coveted role), her BFF knew it felt like fate. “[She] was like ‘All this time, we’ve been manifesting this,’” Grace said.

A standalone Batgirl film has been in the works with Warner Bros. and DC since 2017, and Grace’s casting was announced in 2021. However, a year later, the film has been scrapped just months away from release. Here’s what we know.

Why did Batgirl get scrapped?

Batgirl was expected to arrive sometime in 2022 on HBO Max, but on Aug. 2, reports broke, initially from The New York Post, that Warner Bros. wouldn’t be releasing the film at all, theatrically or online.

Per The Hollywood Reporter, “The unusual move comes after a change in leadership at Warners, with newly installed Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav prioritizing on cost-cutting measures and refocusing Warners on theatrical films rather than creating projects straight for streaming, as had been a priority for former WarnerMedia CEO Jason Kilar.”

The film—with a reported budget of $80 million and actual costs nearing $90 million due to COVID protocols—had already finished shooting, THR reports. Sources told the outlet that costly projects made only for streaming don’t align with the company’s new strategy.

The Wrap reported earlier that, according to insiders, the studio heads decided Batgirl simply didn’t work, even with reshoots and an increased budget. The new management is “committed to making DC titles big theatrical event films, and ‘Batgirl’ isn’t that,” per The Wrap. However, the studio reportedly loves Grace and the film’s directors, and want to work with them in the future.

And according to Variety, “Studio insiders insist the decision was not driven by the quality of the film or the commitment of the filmmakers, but by the desire for the studio’s slate of DC features to be at a blockbuster scale. ‘Batgirl’ was budgeted to screen in homes on HBO Max, and not for a major global release in theaters.” (For reference, the Robert Pattinson-starring Batman, which released primarily in theaters, cost $185 million.)

Still, as the outlet points out, it’s surprising to see the studio drop Batgirl entirely rather than try to make up for some of the costs with a smaller release.

What is Batgirl about?

The film was meant to follow Barbara Gordon, daughter of Gotham’s police commissioner (and famous Batman ally) James Gordon, taking the alias of Batgirl. Grace also teased a bit of Barbara’s story to ELLE.com:

“I can’t say much about what she is going to do, but Batgirl becomes her own hero. [Her origin story] is crazy dark, like a lot of other superheroes, but I like that she becomes Batgirl because she wants to make a difference in the world. She feels like people underestimate her as Barbara Gordon, and I relate to that.”

The actress also hinted at some of the stunt work she’d be doing in the role, speaking to Variety: “There’s crazy fire. There’s crazy stunts, crazy drops. She’s a biker chick, so you’re going to see her do a bunch of badassery.”

This marks the third onscreen iteration of the caped superheroine, per The Hollywood Reporter. She debuted on TV in 1961 as Betty Kane (played by Yvonne Craig) then appeared again in the 1997 Batman & Robin film (starring Alicia Silverstone as Barbara Wilson).

Who’s in the cast?

Michael Keaton was set to make his grand return as Batman. J. K. Simmons, who played Commissioner James Gordon in Justice League, was going to reprise his role too.

Mummy star Brendan Fraser had joined as the pyromaniac supervillain Firefly, Deadline reported in October. And Jacob Scipio, breakout star of Bad Boys for Life, was also onboard as mobster Anthony “Tony” Bressi.

Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah (Bad Boys For Life) were directing, Christina Hodson (Birds of Prey) wrote the script, and Kristin Burr (Cruella) was producing. Joss Whedon had initially signed on to write and direct the film before dropping out in 2018.

Leslie Grace has shared a sneak peek at her Batgirl costume.

On January 14, Grace shared a shot of herself in the Batgirl costume, standing against a Gotham building backdrop. The suit has a blue cast to it, a gold utility belt, what looks like a weapon strapped to her thigh, and a short cape lined with yellow. Grace’s hair flows free in the wind behind her.

She captioned the image, “‘I use their expectations against them. That will be their weakness. Not mine. Let them all underestimate me…And when their guard is down, and their pride is rising, let me kick their butts.’ – Batgirl, Year One.”

Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson’s relationship has been heating up quickly, a source told Us Weekly. The couple began dating in the fall of 2021, shortly after connecting on the set of Saturday Night Live after Kardashian served as the show’s host.

“They both have busy schedules at the moment, but are still making time to be together,” the insider explained. “They’re very much enjoying spending time together.”

Davidson has been filming in Australia, so Kardashian traveled earlier this month to visit him on set.

“It’s quite romantic,” the source added.

Speculation on their relationship is more intense because Davidson recently said in an interview with Kevin Hart on Peacock’s Hart to Heart that he has been seriously considering having children.

“[I’m] definitely a family guy. My favorite thing ever, which I have yet to achieve, I wanna have a kid. That’s like my dream,” Davidson said. “It’s like, super corny, [but] it would be so fun. Dress up the little dude. It’s just like, I’m so excited for that chapter… That’s kind of what I’m just preparing for now, is just trying to be as good as a dude, develop and get better so when that happens it’s just easier.”

He also said he definitely wants to get married someday, but he’s been hesitant to say all of this until now.

“Since my dad died, I was like, ‘Oh, I can’t wait to have a kid.’ And like, I don’t like saying corny s–t — the reasoning was like, ‘I don’t want a kid to ever feel like how I feel right now,’” Davidson explained. “It wasn’t his fault [that] he passed away. But just to be there so that someone doesn’t have to feel like that. I’m very excited to do that for someone and watch them have what I didn’t.”

Apparently, Kardashian has considered children with Davidson as well and might be open to it.

“Pete would make a great dad,” the insider said. “He’s goofy and fun to be around. He wants to be a big role model for his kid/kids — something he missed out on sadly after his father passed away when he was younger. He has a really good heart and comes from a good place. He can’t wait to be a dad.”

Kardashian has four children with her ex, Kanye West: North, 9, Saint, 6, Chicago, 4, and Psalm, 3. Davidson has met them and they apparently get along great.

“Kim loves how great Pete is with the kids. He’s a big kid himself and makes them laugh,” another insider said earlier this year. “Kim and Pete are very in sync right now, they’re very in step with each other and the relationship is easy. They’re getting closer and closer and are a really great pair.”

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker signaled that he’s recovering well following his hospitalization earlier this month when the two were photographed making out in Malibu over the weekend.

This is one of the first times Kardashian and Barker have been spotted out and about and being affectionate since Barker was released from the hospital following treatment for pancreatitis.

The couple released statements after Barker was discharged. Barker wrote, “I went in for an endoscopy Monday feeling great. But After dinner, I developed excruciating pain and have been hospitalized ever since. During the endoscopy, I had a very small polyp removed right in a very sensitive area, usually handled by specialists, which unfortunately damaged a critical pancreatic drainage tube. This resulted in severe life threatening pancreatitis. I am so very very grateful that with intensive treatment I am currently much better.”

Kardashian wrote, “Oh what a scary and emotional week it has been. Our health is everything and sometimes we take for granted how quickly it can change. Travis and I went in for a routine endoscopy together and he ended up with severe, life-threatening pancreatitis. I am so grateful to God for healing my husband, for all of your prayers for him and for us, for the overwhelming outpouring of love and support. I am so touched and appreciative.”

Kardashian and Barker got married legally in in mid-May. They had a bigger wedding in Italy later that month.

A source detailed to Entertainment Tonight last week how Barker’s health scare changed their dynamic. “Kourtney has dropped everything to make sure that Travis is quickly on the mend,” the source said. “Being newlyweds, they weren’t anticipating this, but after what Travis went through and what they went through together, it made them even stronger and more connected. Kourtney refused to leave his side until she knew he was going to be okay and put a halt on everything, like filming and work commitments.”

“She was only concerned with Travis’s well-being,” the source continued. “Travis and Kourtney have been together even more than they were before, including coming to visit him at the studio, since it gave her such a scare. Kourtney is now more appreciative of their time together more than ever.”
