Cindy Williams Has Died At 75
This year’s Emmy’s In Memoriam just got longer (and the year is still young) because we have sadly lost another TV legend. Cindy Williams died on Wednesday after a short illness. Cindy’s children, Zak and Emily Hudson, delivered the news of sadness in this statement:
“The passing of our kind, hilarious mother, Cindy Williams, has brought us insurmountable sadness that could never truly be expressed. Knowing and loving her has been our joy and privilege. She was one of a kind, beautiful, generous and possessed a brilliant sense of humor and a glittering spirit that everyone loved.”
Cindy was 75.
Night Crumbs
Zachary Levi had an interesting time on social media this past weekend. First, he tweeted “hard agreed” to a tweet asking people if they agree or not that Pfizer is “a real danger to the world.” That got Zachary hit with accusations of being a JennyMcCarthy-ite (read: an anti-vaxxer), and he was dragged up and down Twitter for that. Second, people brought out shit from Zachary’s past, like how he praised noted chunky skidmark Jordan Peterson as a “deep thinker,” gave an interview to Pat Robertson’s Christian Broadcasting Network, and said he was turned down for roles for being “too Jewish” even though he’s not Jewish (he changed his last name from Pugh to his middle name Levi at the advice of his agent). Then, after all that, Zachary tweeted that his father had died a few days ago. So as Zachary Levi’s publicist tosses their phone into the toilet before flushing, Chris Pratt’s publicist is calmly lounging like, “What a nice change for me that a different alleged Christian conservative right-winger Marvel star is getting shit.” – The A.V.

Julia Roberts and Jennifer Aniston will star together in a comedy where they swap bodies, and that might make you think, “What a stretch!” But it kind of is. I mean, Julia Roberts can only really play Julia Roberts, and Jennifer Aniston can only really play Jennifer Aniston, and now they’ll have to play a different 50-something rich white woman. This IS a stretch for them! – Variety
Priscilla Presley Is Contesting An Amendment Made To A Trust For Lisa Marie Presley’s Kids Following A Big Life Insurance Payout
As we know, the last few years of Lisa Marie Presley‘s life were marked by tragedy and struggle. Right up to the bitter end and, apparently, beyond. Even though she had cause for celebration earlier this month following the success of Baz Luhman’s Elvis at the Golden Globes, that celebration was cut short two days later when she died unexpectedly following a cardiac event. Now, even in death, it seems the ghosts of her past are determined to fuck with her in the afterlife by pitting her mother, Priscilla Presley, and her daughter Riley Keough, against each other for control of a soon-be-be flush trust fund set up for her now 14-year-old twin daughters back in 2010, thanks to a pair of life insurance policies. TMZ reports that Priscilla is contesting a possible “fraudulent” 2016 amendment to the trust, which names Riley (as well as her brother Benjamin Keough who sadly died by suicide in 2020) as trustees, overriding the initial trustees, Priscilla and Barry Sigel. Barry was Lisa Marie’s former business manager, who she sued in 2018 for allegedly mismanaging her funds and causing her to be $16 million in debt.
Adam Levine And Behati Prinsloo Welcomed The Baby Adam Wanted To Name After His Alleged Side Piece
People reports that Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo recently welcomed their third baby. The couple also share daughters, Gio Grace, 4, and Dusty Rose, 6. Adam and Behati have yet to reveal their newborn’s name, but something tells me if it’s a boy, they’re probably not going to go with Adam’s initial choice, “Sumner.” In case you forgot, last September, Adam’s alleged ex-sidepiece, 23-year-old Sumner Stroh, claimed he messaged her asking if she was OK with him naming his unborn child “Sumner” if it was a boy. Adam denied he and Sumner had a physical affair, but admitted he “crossed the line” with the flirty DMs. Unfortunately for him, after Sidepiece-Sumner’s allegations, several other women came forward with their own “Adam Levine is a cheater” stories. Well, maybe Adam and Behati named the baby after one of them…
King Charles Wants Prince Harry And Meghan Markle At His Coronation, And All Five Of The Spice Girls May Reunite For It
After Prince Harry shit talked everybody and his father in Spare, I assumed him and Meghan Markle would be persona non grata at King Charles’ coronation in June. But, over the weekend, The Independent reported that, actually, Charles would be open to having his spare son and daughter-in-law at his crowning. Apparently, he’s concerned their absence would be “more distracting than their presence.” Prince William allegedly disagrees and is worried that Harry will “overshadow” the event. Um, fair enough, but do Harry and Meghan really have the ~*STAHHH POWER*~ to steal Charles’ thunder? It’s not like they’re the bloody… Spice Girls. Oh wow, what a perfect segue into our next coronation headline: the Spice Girls (including Posh!) might reunite to play Charles’ coronation concert in May!
Open Post: Hosted By Martha Stewart’s “Not Re-Imaged” Selfies
In this world, nothing is certain except death, taxes, and an 81-year-old Martha Stewart boastfully posting thirst traps. So it’s no surprise that Martha just dropped a fresh double batch of selfies from the salon chair on our asses. In her initial post, her face looked curiously smooth and youthful despite her caption specifying she didn’t use a filter and instead attributing her “skin looking good” to the lighting, a Dry January, and Pilates every other day. But besides a smattering of praise from blue-checked celebrities, the comment section was mostly people telling Martha to get real. So Martha then shared the other selfies she took (which looked much more believable) and doubled down on her amazing skin. She reiterated that it’s all due to a great diet, great exercise, great dermatologists, and NO filters or facelifts. Basically, Martha’s skin is just “a very good thing.”
