While well-known for her music and graciously lending her private jets to her friends in an effort to contribute to carbon emissions, Taylor Swift is also attempting to add Academy Award-winning director to her resume. “But, Vanessa,” you may be saying, “Taylor didn’t direct the epic feature Dear Evan Hansen, how can she be eligible?” How quickly we forget TayTay’s 15-minute saga All Too Well: The Short Film! Apparently, her film about “an effervescent, curious young woman who ends up completely out of her depth” could be in the running for an Oscar. Jake Gyllenhaal better have his social media on lockdown when Taylor wins that award!

Filmmaker Michael Mann says that in the 90s, he really wanted to do a James Dean biopic starring Leonardo DiCaprio who was around 19 at the time. Michael said that Leo did a screen test and it was amazing, but in some angles, Leo looked like he was starring in a Muppet Babies-like version of James Dean’s life story. Basically, Leo looked too young in the face. Michael eventually got tired of waiting for Leo to age and scrapped the project. So Leo went from staring into the mirror while saying “please age faster, please age faster” to staring at his girlfriend’s face while saying, “please age slower, please age slower” – Entertainment Weekly

Here’s rumor #796,999 that Rihanna is delivering new music soon. But I’ll believe it when I press play on her supposed new song, and even then I’ll think, “Are we sure this isn’t really just an audio commercial for a new Fenty product?” – Lainey Gossip

Alec Baldwin may have forgotten he shot and killed someone ten months ago, but the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s department has not. As they attempt to wrap up their investigation into the on-set shooting death of Rust cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, Alec, who was holding the gun when he/it fired a bullet that killed Halyna and injured the film’s director Joel Souza, is still on top of their most wanted list. The only most wanted list Alec is likely to find himself on outside of wife Hilaria Baldwin’s list of dream baby daddies which alarmingly is just Alec’s name a bunch of times into infinity. Deadline reports that “the police investigation into what happened remains ongoing but is a bit closer to completion,” and one of the last pieces of evidence needed before handing the case off to the Santa Fe District Attorney for possible charges, is Alec’s phone records which he very reluctantly handed over to the Suffix County, New York police in January.

In a recent interview with Allure, 18-year-old Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown shares that, when she was ten years old, a powerful casting director left her in tears when he told her she was “too mature” to make it in the entertainment industry. Um… huh? Did this guy mean that Millie was too serious? Or do Hollywood bigwigs want their child actors to be extra-naive so they can take advantage of them? But, also, don’t those same guys (for example, Drake) love the line, “You’re so mature for your age”? Pick a lane, creeps!

Despite its ongoing association with John Waters, The Provincetown Film Society remains a respectable institution if that tells you anything about the sorry state of filth in this country today. In just a few short decades, John’s gone from being an untouchable (that is unless you wanted to catch the new strain of leprosy they were calling Fecal Asscillus Divinobacterium ) to hosting fancy dinner parties for wealthy individuals who wouldn’t recognize a greasy, shit-smeared dildo if it slapped them in the face.
