Night Crumbs
In news that may make your lungs collapse from letting out the gasp of all gasps, it turns out that Andrea Riseborough’s surprise Best Actress Oscar nomination for a movie nobody has seen called To Leslie was the work of a strategic PR campaign. To Leslie’s director, Michael Morris, is married to actress Mary McCormack who worked with big PR firms to email her famous friends and ask them to push the movie and Andrea’s performance in social media posts and elsewhere. Many did just that. Oh, how I miss the olden days when actors thirsty for OSCUH did the hustling themselves. Like the iconic “consider” ads of pure sexy opulence that Melissa Leo took out in the trades to get an Oscar for her performance in 2010’s The Fighter. And she got that Oscar. Please take note from a real awards season PR master, Andrea. – Variety

The teaser trailer for the miniseries version of Daisy Jones & The Six, which is a fictionalized take on Fleetwood Mac’s story, is out.

A Sherriff’s Office report says that before Jeremy Renner’s accident, he was trying to save his nephew from getting run over by the PistenBully snow groomer that eventually ran over him. Yes, “snow groomer.” Those two words must have everybody throwing Chris Hansen-like side-eyes at Frosty – People
While looking like she just got up from a beach nap, Kaia Gerber covers Elle Magazine and talks about nepotism. Kaia admits to her privilege but doesn’t think nepotism is a big problem and denies that her mom Cindy Crawford pulled strings for her to make it in the industry. Sure, Jan Kaia – Celebitchy
