Nick Knowles apologises for budgie smugglers on I’m A Celebrity

OHMYGOSSIP — Nick Knowles has publicly apologised for wearing his red budgie smugglers on ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’
The 56-year-old television presenter – who is best known for his work on ‘DIY SOS’ and ‘Who Dares Wins’ – has said he’s sorry for walking around the jungle in a pair of revealing red pants, claiming that it was the only thing he had to wear.
He spoke to ‘This Morning’ today (07.12.18) and said: “Can I publicly apologise for the red budgie smugglers. It was literally all I had to wear!”
Nick became the sixth celebrity to leave the jungle this series, as he lost out on a place in this weekend’s final during Thursday’s (06.12.18) episode of the ITV reality competition.
Nick follows in the footsteps of TV legend Noel Edmonds, ‘Hollyoaks’ star Malique Thompson-Dwyer, ‘Coronation Street’ actress Sair Khan, actress Rita Simons, and ‘The Chase’ quiz brain Anne Hegerty, who have all been kicked out of camp since voting opened last week.
He admitted that he liked keeping himself busy in the jungle and says that he ran a laundry service for his camp mates by making a washing line from old sheets.
He said: “It was a sheet that I had ripped into strips – it turned out to make this really amazing rope. It had been raining for like two days straight and nobody had any clothes.
“I was stuck in camp with nothing to do. So I made a rope – and it worked, which amazed me more than anybody else! So I managed to get everyone’s clothes dry during the day. It was like I was running a laundry all day!”
Now, just five camp mates – Harry Redknapp, Fleur East, Emily Atack, James McVey, and John Barrowman – are left battling it out for a place in Sunday’s (09.12.18) final, where one celebrity will be crowned King or Queen of the jungle.

Eva Longoria praises L’Oreal for championing women

OHMYGOSSIP — Eva Longoria has praised L’Oreal for championing women and their “struggle” for power.
The 43-year-old star – who is an ambassador for L’Oreal Paris – has opened up about the difficulties, and said the huge brand is helping with its ‘You’re worth it’ slogan.
Speaking at the company’s annual Women of Worth Awards, Eva said: “We’re finding our voices and our power every day, and there’s a struggle to do that in every industry — not just Hollywood, in every industry — so to see a big company like L’Oréal doing the work and representing this slogan, which is, ‘You’re worth it,’ making sure women are finding their worth in life, is really important.”
Meanwhile, the proud mum gave birth to her first child – son Santiago – with her husband Jose ‘Pepe’ Baston in June, and she hasn’t felt any outside pressure to get her pre-baby body back.
She told Extra: “Well, I don’t really succumb to any pressures outside of myself, but I really gave my body time to heal and just embrace…
“I was breastfeeding and just enjoying postpartum and basking in his energy and this beautiful life I created, and so I was very forgiving to my body because it created a human!
“It’s just now I’m starting to get back to working out and dieting… but not even hardcore, just like, you know what? Let’s start… let’s start to do some movements, see what happens.”
The ‘Desperate Housewives’ star recently revealed she is on a “very serious” weight training programme and being more careful with her diet, but she’s happy she didn’t rush getting back into exercise and gave her body the time it needed to recover.
She said: “I still love yoga, but my workouts now are more weight training. Very serious weight training.
“I really gave my body time to adjust to postpartum and post-pregnancy. You know, it had a baby! It created a human life, so I really wasn’t too hard about getting back into shape.
“Now I’m working out a lot more and watching what I eat. I’m barely starting to get back into it.”

Daleks returning for Doctor Who New Year’s Day special

By
Ohmygossip.com
-

OHMYGOSSIP — The Daleks will return to ‘Doctor Who’ for the New Year’s Day special.
The one-off episode of the popular science fiction show – which will follow the finale of the current series this weekend – will feature the return of the Time Lord’s most iconic rival.
As reported by the Mirror, Jodie Whittaker’s Doctor will face the evil cyborgs for the first time when they make a comeback after more than three years.
The merciless villains were last seen in 2015’s ‘The Witch’s Familiar’ when Peter Capaldi was still in the TARDIS.
It’s said the memorable foe will be getting a bit of a makeover for the upcoming special – which is airing on January 1 instead of its typical Christmas Day (25.12.18) slot – as they’ll lose their bronze look in favour of something new.
It comes after the new showrunner Chris Chibnall banned old monsters for his first series as he sought to put his own stamp on the show.
He previously said: “There are no old monsters. OK?”
He also teased it was only “this year” he was keeping them out, and he looks to have decided to start 2019 in a big way.
Daleks – which were created by Terry Nation – were first seen in 1963 when William Hartnell was playing the first Doctor.
The report comes after it was revealed Charlotte Ritchie, Nikesh Patel and Daniel Adegboyega will star in the New Year’s Day episode.
Details of their roles in the upcoming special are being largely kept under wraps, but the former ‘Call the Midwife’ star will play a character called Lin, Nikesh – who is best known for his role in ‘Indian Summers’ – is to portray Mitch, and ‘Save Me’ actor Daniel will play Aaron.
This year will be the first since 2005 that there has been no Christmas Day episode of the sci-fi saga so BBC bosses previously teased the New Year special will be “spectacular”.
The broadcaster said: “With 2018 marking a brand new era for ‘Doctor Who’, it is only right that 2019 kicks off in spectacular style…
“In this year’s festive episode the Tardis will travel through the time vortex from its traditional timeslot on Christmas Day and will land in style on New Year’s Day.”
The hour-long episode will see the Doctor – who is portrayed by Jodie Whittaker – and her companions Ryan (Tosin Cole), Graham (Bradley Walsh) and Yaz (Mandip Gill) arrive home and discover a new alien threat to Earth.

Holly Willoughby to brave the Cyclone on I’m A Celebrity

OHMYGOSSIP —
Holly Willoughby will brave the Cyclone on ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’.
The 37-year-old TV presenter will take part in a Bushtucker Trial as part of the climax of the series – which she is guest hosting alongside Declan Donnelly – despite previously insisting she wouldn’t do any trials on the Australian jungle-based show.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “It’s very unique as hosts don’t normally do trials.
“The only other time was when Ant and Dec did Cyclone for Text Santa one year.
“Holly was adamant that she would not be doing a trial either but since she has got out here things have gone so well and the ITV2 ‘Extra Camp’ team managed to persuade her to take part. It is one of her favourite trials so she couldn’t say no.
“It will be the perfect end to a brilliant stint hosting the show with Dec which has gone down better than anyone could have dreamed of.”
The blonde beauty will be taking on the Cyclone, where she will climb up a hill carrying a giant foam star to a certain point whilst being hit by high pressure water cannons, gale force winds and giant balls.
Holly will join ‘Extra Camp’ presenters Scarlett Moffatt, Joe Swash and Joel Dommett to do the Cyclone on Saturday, with the results screened later that night at 10pm.
She attempted to do a Bushtucker Trial on ‘This Morning’ last month, when she put her hands into boxes to identify what was inside, to which she screamed profusely.
Now, just five camp mates – Harry Redknapp, Fleur East, Emily Atack, James McVey, and John Barrowman – are left battling it out for a place in Sunday’s (09.12.18) final, where one celebrity will be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle.

Julia Haworth filmed Doctors Christmas scenes in summer holidays

OHMYGOSSIP — Julia Haworth shot her ‘Doctors’ Christmas scenes in the middle of the summer holidays.
The former ‘Coronation Street’ actress – who played Claire Peacock on the ITV soap from 2003 to 2011 – has joined the BBC One daytime soap as Laura, who is keen to have a baby with her husband, and she thought it was “bonkers” doing festive filming in the Birmingham heat.
She said: “This is the earliest I’ve filmed Christmas scenes.
“We had to have fake snow for Claire and Ashley’s Christmas Day wedding, which we shot in October, but at least it was cold then.
“It was the middle of the summer holidays filming Christmas at ‘Doctors’, which was bonkers.”
The 39-year-old actress – who has two kids – admits her “sensitive” ‘Doctors’ storyline has made her consider “what is important” in her life.
She told Inside Soap magazine: “Laura is a fascinating character, she really is.
“She and Russell are going through IVF, which is having a massive impact on their lives.
“It’s a very sensitive storyline, which midwife Ruhma becomes involved with – and it impacts her life as well as Laura’s.
“It’s one of those stories that makes you consider what’s important.”
Julia recently revealed she is training to be a teacher at Bolton College in between acting jobs.
She said: “As an actor still working professionally within the entertainment industry, the knowledge and skills I am teaching to the Performing Arts students here at Bolton College are 100 per cent up to date, accurate and relevant.
“This is imperative in a rapidly changing industry and in helping the learners with their future employability.”

Mary Berry wraps Christmas turkey in a sleeping bag

By

OHMYGOSSIP — Mary Berry wraps her Christmas turkey in a sleeping bag.
The former ‘Great British Bake Off’ judge has been cooking the festive bird for the past few years, despite her daughter Annabel hosting Christmas dinner for their family one-hour drive from the 83-year-old star’s house.
As a result, Mary has to take precautions to ensure the turkey keeps warm on her travels, so she uses one of the padded bags to make sure the meat remains in-tact on her Christmas Day jaunt.
She is quoted by The Sun’s Bizarre TV column as saying: “For the past couple of years, I’ve been to my children and I always take the turkey, which people think is odd. I went to my daughter Annabel’s last year.
“She cooks most of the things, but I cook the turkey.
“It’s an hour away, so I cook it in my own oven but then it’s done a couple of hours early so I wrap it in foil, cover it in a sleeping bag then stick it in the boot of the car.”
Mary may well have needed her sleeping bag for getting some shut-eye in earlier this year when she jetted off to Morocco and Italy to shoot her new show, ‘Mary Berry’s Quick Cooking’, which will see her exploring the delights of musical festival delicacies.
A source said at the time: “It’s Mary Berry as we’ve never seen her before and audiences are going to love every minute.
“She is a dream to work with and will pretty much say yes to all of the team’s wacky ideas. It’s refreshing to see such an established personality up for reinventing herself.”

Vick Hope to voice Shipwrecked reboot

OHMYGOSSIP — Vick Hope is “chuffed” to be voicing the new series of ‘Shipwrecked’.
The 29-year-old radio presenter can’t wait to lend her vocal talents to E4’s reboot of the reality TV series, which is returning to TV screens after a seven-year break.
The ‘Capital Breakfast Show’ host is quoted by The Sun’s Bizarre TV column as saying: “I’m chuffed to be voicing the all new series of ‘Shipwrecked’.
“There are some amazing characters, epic bombshells and lovely waves of nostalgia ahead.”
The show – which was initially narrated by Andrew Lincoln, and then former ‘Coronation Street’ actor Craig Kelly in later series – saw contestants aged between 18 and 24 cast away on a tropical island and left to build their own version of paradise.
‘Shipwrecked’ was one of the earliest reality TV series, launching the same year as the UK version of ‘Big Brother’ back in 2000.
It ran for three series until 2001, before returning in 2006 as ‘Shipwrecked: Battle Of The Islands’, which saw the contestants divided into two groups to compete for a cash prize of up to £100,000.
In total, the show ran for eight series with the last season running on E4 in 2012.
Past contestants include TV presenters Jeff Brazier and Sarah-Jane Crawford, as well as ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ winner Stephen Bear.
Inspired by the success of ITV’s ‘Love Island’, Channel 4 is now planning to bring ‘Shipwrecked’ back to screens in 2019.
A source previously said: “Lots of people have fond memories of watching ‘Shipwrecked’ in their youth and dreaming about joining the fun in paradise.
“Now Channel 4 have decided to give millennials the same experience, after ‘Love Island’ proved sun-kissed hunks and beauties frolicking in a tropical setting can result in huge ratings.”
Filming will take place on the South Pacific’s Cook Islands where campmates are split into two tribes to battle it out for a £50,000 prize.

David Beckham stole wife’s beauty products

By
Ohmygossip.com

OHMYGOSSIP — David Beckham used to “steal” his wife Victoria’s beauty products.
The 43-year-old retired footballer – who has sons Brooklyn, 19, Romeo, 16, and Cruz, 13, and seven-year-old daughter Harper with the former Spice Girls singer – has always been aware he needed to look after his skin because he spent so much time outside but didn’t have the knowledge to select the right lotions and creams, so simply took to using the same items as his fashion designer spouse.
He said: “My approach to grooming was always to steal my wife’s products. That was kind of it, really. I’d always been aware of how I wanted my hair to look, stuff like that, but I was also in a career where I was always outside–whether I was living in Manchester, living in Madrid, LA…all these different places with different weather.
“I had to take care of my skin because of that, but the way I looked after it was to steal my wife’s stuff, because I know she has the best. ”
But David – who has created his own grooming line with L’Oreal, House 99 – takes a lot more care these days and thinks it’s a “more acceptable” topic for guys to discuss now.
He added in an interview with Into the Gloss: “I never used to use face wash, apart from using my wife’s products. I never used to make the time to do that. Now I have a face wash, I have a mask, a scrub.
“And it’s so much more acceptable – guys find it much more natural to talk about their products that they use, and what they do to look after their skin and their hair, and the way they want to look. I’m very excited about that.”
David taught his two older sons how to shave and is looking forward to doing the same when the time comes for Cruz.
He said: “The first time my son Romeo shaved, I shaved him -he literally had a fluff on his face, but he was quite excited about his dad shaving him. Brooklyn, the same. I’m sure I’ll have to do the same to Cruz.”
When it comes to his own facial fuzz, the star has never been clean shaven since his eldest son was young because it terrified the tot.
He said: “As far as I can remember, I’ve always had some kind of stubble. I’ve worked out that I look better with some stubble than without.
“I think the last time I razor shaved was about 15 years ago – my son Brooklyn was four years old, and I razor shaved when we were in the south of France on holiday.
“I came out the bathroom, and he literally burst into tears because I shaved my moustache and my goatee. So since then, I don’t think I’ve shaved.”

Amber Heard: Hollywood isn’t progressive

By
Ohmygossip.com
-

OHMYGOSSIP — Amber Heard doesn’t think Hollywood is progressive.
The ‘Aquaman’ actress doesn’t understand why the movie industry is “held up” as a model of forward-thinking when it takes a long time to make any changes and is “deeply risk-averse”.
She said: “Hollywood is the slowest to change. It’s ironically held up as some bastion of progressive ideals, and yet the reality is the exact opposite.
“It’s deeply risk-averse and reliant on maintaining the status quo.”
In between stints promoting ‘Aquaman’, Amber spent a lot of time working on the border helping to get aid to Mexican immigrants.
She told the Hollywood Reporter: “I was working behind the scenes with some of the people giving humanitarian aid to the caravan and went to Mexico City when [the migrants] first started to arrive.
“I got in contact with the heads of certain nonprofits. I prefer not to say which ones out of concern for their safety, as this has become extremely volatile and political.”
The 32-year-old actress also found the time to fly to Jordan to work with Syrian American Medical Society, and though she values both her career and her humanitarian efforts, she admitted it can be hard never being among familiar faces.
She said: “When you travel and spend so much time on the road and in such a nonconsistent, go-go-go way, one country this day, shooting a movie or in a refugee camp and you’re doing all these things and going everywhere, you can find yourself sometimes at the end of a month realising that, while you’re never actually alone, you’ve just gone a month without being around a single person who knows you.”
Amber was previously married to Johnny Depp and when they divorced amid accusations he had been abusive, she donated her entire $7 million settlement to the ACLU and Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.
However, though she feels she did what was “right”, she doesn’t want to talk about her ex-husband.
She said: “I’m not going to talk about Johnny. I’m more interested in talking about the work I’m doing and the things I feel proud of. I stood up for myself, for what was right.”

Jennifer Hudson’s custody battle to go to trial

By
Ohmygossip.com
-

OHMYGOSSIP — Jennifer Hudson and David Otunga’s custody battle is heading to court.
The ‘Voice’ coach has been locked in a bitter dispute with her former fiance over the care of their nine-year-old son David Jr. and now they will face one another in court for a five-day trial starting on the March 11 in order to resolve the questions of who should have a greater share of custody of the youngster and who should pay support.
According to The Blast, things are so bitter between the former couple, they have even been fighting over the choice of school bus stops.
Last year, Jennifer filed for an emergency order of protection after accusing the WWE commentator of pushing her while holding David, and though it was granted by the court, the 37-year-old singer later dropped the petition altogether.
Both David – who denied pushing his former partner – and the ‘Dreamgirls’ star have filed a number of motions against each other, accusing one another of playing legal games.
At one point, Jennifer said she was worried David would kidnap their son, while he accused her of trying to defame him.
He argued she had made creative negative press about him her priority, rather than protecting their only child.
In court documents, David claimed Jennifer issued an exclusive statement to People about their split, saying her actions were “solely taken in the best interest of their son”, at the same time he was being served with an emergency order of protection.
He alleged the statement damaged his reputation and at the time it was released, he was being forcibly removed from their home in front of their son, and Jennifer wasn’t even there.
A court order is in place prohibiting the former couple from disseminating photos or making comments about their son, but the wrestling star previously claimed the ‘Spotlight’ singer had violated the order by giving an interview to an entertainment news show, which showed various photos of David Jr., and mentioned him by name throughout.

Matthew McConaughey’s mom still has movie dream

By
Ohmygossip.com
-

OHMYGOSSIP — Matthew McConaughey’s 86-year-old mother is desperate to be a film star.
The 49-year-old actor’s mom Kay visited him on the set of his latest movie ‘White Boy Rick’ and though she says she likes to see him at work, he believes she has ulterior motives and is still trying to get spotted to get her own big break – and has a bizarre dream project that would see her play her son’s older lover.
He said: “She says it’s because she wants to see me, but I always say, ‘If I was an accountant in Chicago would you want to see me as often!’ She just wants to get into the movies and she is persistent.
“She is 86 and her pitch is always to re-make ‘The Graduate’, with her as the Anne Bancroft character and me as Dustin Hoffman’s character. She thinks it would work and is no big deal. There’s Freudian stuff in there!”
Matthew – who has children Levi, 10, Vida, eight, and five-year-old Livingston with wife Camila Alves – plays the father of an undercover police informant in ‘White Boy Rick’ and described the film as his “sad country song”.
He told talk show host Graham Norton: “This role is my sad country song. The character has bad luck on top of bad luck.”
The Oscar-winning star also admitted he isn’t entirely sure of the “truth” surrounding the story that he turned down the part of Jack Dawson in ‘Titanic’ before Leonardo DiCaprio was cast because he insisted he was never offered the role.
Asked about the casting story, he said: “I don’t know the real truth. I heard that James Cameron told people I had the part but that I turned it down. I did read with Kate [Winslet] but I was never offered the part. If I was, I’d like to talk to my agent about it!”
The full interview with Matthew will air on ‘The Graham Norton Show’ on BBC One on Friday (07.12.18).

OHMYGOSSIP — EastEnders’ Kat Moon will see her world “shattered into pieces” when she discovers husband Alfie Moon is the father of her cousin Hayley Slater’s baby.
The no-nonsense Walford resident – played by Jessie Wallace – will be left furious over the festive period when she finds out on Christmas Day that happy-go-lucky Alfie (Shane Richie) has fathered a child with Hayley (Katie Jarvis), and there will be unexpected consequences as a result.
The truth about Alfie and Hayley is set to be revealed in “catastrophic style”, which will put paid to his plans to give Kat a “perfect Christmas”.
He finally returned to Albert Square last week and was shocked to discover that Hayley had kept their baby, after he had previously handed her money to get an abortion.
As well as this, ‘EastEnders’ are set to revisit Kat’s horrific abuse past, with Eric Richard set to return as former cabbie Maurice later this month.
The former ‘The Bill’ actor made his debut on the soap last week when Maurice told Kat that her late father Charlie Slater (Derek Martin) may have known about the sexual abuse she suffered from her evil Uncle Harry.
The news came as a huge shock to Kat, and resulted in her losing concentration and running over an elderly guy on her moped on the way home.
Kat will later clap eyes on the OAP she ran over in Walford, and in a moment of panic she reveals all to Alfie, who sets about trying to help her.
In an attempt to put things right he invites Maurice over to the Slater household, but Kat is left shocked when she finds the former taxi driver in her home.

Asan N’Jie wants Adam Thomas back on Emmerdale

By
Ohmygossip.com
-

OHMYGOSSIP — Asan N’Jie has called for Adam Thomas to return to ‘Emmerdale’.
The Dales newcomer – who plays Ellis Grant on the ITV soap – is keen to work alongside the actor on the show after a number of his co-stars told him he is “so alike” to the 30-year-old actor in real-life.
He told Inside Soap magazine: “I would love to work with Adam Thomas, who played Adam Barton.
“I know that sounds random, but so many people have said that me and Adam are so alike in real life – it’s one of those where I want him to just slot back in so that we can have lots of scenes together.”
Asan is not the only current Dales star who would like Adam to reprise his role as his namesake on the show.
Natalie J. Robb – who plays his on-screen mum Moira Dingle – recently admitted she would love to see the character return to the soap to “put a spanner in the works”, following the arrival of Matty Barton (Ash Palmisciano), who was previously known as Moira’s daughter Hannah Barton (Grace Cassidy).
The former ‘Dream Team’ actress is still friends with Adam following his ‘Emmerdale’ exit, but admitted his return to the soap doesn’t look likely anytime soon after he and wife Caroline Thomas welcomed a daughter, Elsie-Rose, into the world in May.
She added: “What would the show be without spanners? I love Adam to bits, but we’re always in touch, we always make sure he’s OK, but he’s just had another little girl so I think his priorities are somewhere else at the moment.”
Adam recently revealed he was inspired to quit ‘Emmerdale’ following a chat with his ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ co-star Larry Lamb.
He said: “I remember him giving me some advice, saying, ‘You should just get out there, and try other things and take the jump.’
“And the first meeting I had with my boss when I get back to work was, ‘Listen, I’m done now. I’ve made up my mind.’
“And if I hadn’t done it then, then I wouldn’t have done it.”

Crazy Rich Asians sequels set to film back-to-back

By
Helena-Reet Ennet
-

OHMYGOSSIP — Two ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ sequels are set to film back-to-back.
The widely acclaimed drama movie – which was released earlier this year – proved to be a global success, earning more than $230 million at the box office, but plans to reunite the cast to shoot a sequel have, perhaps, proven to be more difficult than expected.
Some of the original movie’s cast – which includes the likes of Constance Wu, Henry Golding, Gemma Chan, Sonoya Mizuno, Awkwafina and Michelle Yeoh – have recently emerged as some of the most in-demand stars in Hollywood.
As a result, the two sequels – which will be based on author Kevin Kwan’s follow-up novels ‘China Rich Girlfriend’ and ‘Rich People Problems’ – will be filmed back-to-back, according to producers Nina Jacobson and Brad Simpson.
The first of the sequels is unlikely to go into production until 2020, according to Deadline, which reports that Adele Lim and Peter Chiarelli are currently working on a script.
News of the sequels comes shortly after Henry Golding revealed he doesn’t want to be labelled as the “Asian leading man”.
However, the sought-after star said that if it helps to “inspire” others, he’s happy to take the title.
He explained: “I don’t want to be defined as the Asian leading man. I want to be the leading man. Henry Golding.
“If it means helping inspire other Asians to be leading men, hell yeah, I’ll take it. You don’t know how proud I am to have that associated with my name.
“Sadly, we’re so underrepresented that we have to start with these labels to be proud of it, to normalise it. So s**t, I’ll be the next Asian leading man.”

Jennifer Aniston ready for 2019

By

OHMYGOSSIP — Jennifer Aniston can’t wait for the year to end.
The ‘Dumplin” actress – who announced in February she and her husband Justin Theroux had separated at the end of 2017 – admitted she and her friends haven’t particularly enjoyed 2018 so she’s looking forward to embracing “new beginnings”.
She told USA Today newspaper: “First off, I cannot believe it’s already December. That’s outrageous. I’m excited for ‘Dumplin” to come out.
“And I’m excited for 2018 to move on. It was the year of the dog. I don’t know if there’s one person you can come into contact with who wasn’t like, ‘This year can go [f**k] itself.’ Know what I mean?
“A lot of people passing and a lot of endings that can only create room for new growth and new beginnings. That’s what I’m excited about.”
And the 49-year-old star described the recent California wildfires – which destroyed thousands of homes – and the current volatile political climate as “biblical” but she’s expecting change to come.
She said: “It’s biblical. We’re literally living in biblical times. But I feel like something has got to give.”
But on a positive tone, Jennifer is pleased her old sitcom ‘Friends’ is as popular as ever, following Netflix’s recent announcement they are bowing to public demand and will continue screening old episodes throughout 2019.
She said: “Apparently ‘Friends’ was going to be taken off Netflix. Then it wasn’t. Was there really a frenzy about it? Or a ‘Friend’-sy?”
Asked if she got involved with keeping it on the streaming service, she replied: “I didn’t. It must’ve been the support and love of those ever-faithful ‘Friends’ fans. ‘Friends’ isn’t dead. It’s alive and well.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Kendrick Lamar heads the list of nominees for the upcoming Grammy Awards.
The 31-year-old rap star – who is already a 12-time Grammy Award winner – has received eight nominations ahead of the annual bash at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on February 10.
Kendrick – whose work on the ‘Black Panther’ soundtrack has been rewarded with multiple nominations – is in contention for some of the most coveted gongs at the ceremony, including Song Of The Year, Record Of The Year and Album Of The Year.
Following Kendrick, fellow rap star Drake has the second-most number of nominations for the upcoming Grammys.
The Canadian star – whose latest studio album, ‘Scorpion’, was released earlier this year – has earned seven nominations in total, while Cardi B, Lady Gaga, Childish Gambino, Maren Morris, H.E.R., and producer Sounwave all notched five.
But Drake, Kendrick and folk singer Brandi Carlile are the only three artists in this year’s list to have received nominations in the prestigious Song, Record and Album Of The Year categories.
Carlile, 37, has been recognised for her song ‘The Joke’, as well as her album ‘By The Way, I Forgive You’.
The other nominees for the sought-after Album Of The Year crown include Cardi, H.E.R., Post Malone, Kacey Musgraves and Janelle Monae, meaning that five of the eight nominees in the category are female.
Elsewhere, Chloe x Halle, Luke Combs, Greta Van Fleet, H.E.R., Dua Lipa, Margo Price, Bebe Rexha and Jorja Smith are all in the running to win the Best New Artist award.
Meanwhile, Childish Gambino – who has previously spoken about retiring his rap moniker – is also up for the Record Of The Year gong for his much-discussed track ‘This Is America’.
