Singer Michelle Williams Pokes Fun at Actress Michelle Williams Fan Mail Mix Up

Singer Michelle Williams is used to sharing her name — even poking fun at it sometimes.

The Broadway star, 45, posted via Instagram Story on Sunday, December 22, showing a case where someone confused her for the actress Michelle Williams.

The former Destiny’s Child member, currently starring in the musical adaptation of the 1992 film Death Becomes Her on Broadway, posted a photo of letters she got, alongside some photos — of the wrong Michelle Williams.

“Fan Mail😂🥴,” she captioned the picture, which showed a letter addressed to Ms. Williams, with two photos of The Greatest Showman actress, 44.

She then posted again on her Instagram story, “I found out that when she was on Broadway in Cabaret, she had also gotten mail with my pictures too! That makes me happy!😂❤

How Celebs With Similar Names Feel About Being Confused for Each Other

This isn’t the first time that the “Say Yes” singer commented on fans confusing her with the actress of the same name.

After the actress Williams got an Emmy in 2019 for her role as Gwen Verdon in Fosse/Verdon, singer Williams said she received multiple comments from confused fans.

“How come when y’all are tagging and congratulating a person, do y’all see that I’m black?” said the singer via an Instagram Live. “When you go to my profile, you search for the ‘Michelle Williams,’ I am black. OK? I ain’t mixed with nothing; I ain’t mixed with Persian, Russian, I am black.”

During her Emmy speech, the actress Williams spoke out about equal pay in the industry, which singer Williams said she received online criticism for.

“I am trying to figure out, ‘Why in the world am I getting cursed out in my comments for Michelle Williams’ speech?’ which I thought was her truth. I thought it was awesome,” she said. “I thought she was factual — I could be wrong. But yeah, I just told this woman a few minutes ago on my Instagram, I was like, ‘I’m so sorry that my namesake upset you, but can’t you see that I’m black?’”

The “Lose My Breath” singer made it clear that she did support The Fablemans actress’ speech.

“She was beautiful. She was brilliant. Honey, she played Gwen Verdon to a T. She was awesome,” she said. “Now get it right, and stop cussing me out.”

The Venom actress has also commented on their name mix ups before. In an interview with Huffpost published in 2018, the actress commented on the fact that Google’s search function would show her photo when someone searched “destiny’s child five members.”

“It gets me one step closer to Beyoncé, so I’m pretty good with it,” the actress said at the time. “Now I’ll have an ice breaker if I ever get to meet Beyoncé. I’ll talk to her about the old days of Destiny’s Child. So thank you because I’ll obviously be tongue-tied if and when that ever happens, and now I’ll know exactly what to say.”

Blake Lively’s brother-in-law Bart Johnson is coming to her defense after she sued It Ends With Us costar and director Justin Baldoni.

“Her complaints were filed during the filming. On record. Long before the public conflict. The cast unfollowed him for a reason,” Johnson, 54, alleged in the comments section of The New York TimesInstagram on Saturday, December 21. “Read this article before spiting [sic] ignorance.”

“His PR team was stellar. Gross and disgusting but highly effective,” Johnson continued. “Read the article, their text message exchanges and his PR campaign strategy to bury her by any means necessary. No one is with out [sic] faults. But the public got played.”

Johnson claimed that “of course mistakes were made” and pointed to Lively’s many responsibilities, including being a mom of four to her and husband Ryan Reynolds’ children.

Blake Lively’s Brother-in-Law Defends Her Amid ‘It Ends With Us’ Drama

“But just IMAGINE being a stay at home mom raising 4 kids, married to the busiest man in Hollywood and at the same time being a girl boss running multiple companies while writing, producing, running non profits and working 16+ hour days from home so you can be with your kids,” he wrote. “Launching 2 new businesses you been working on / developing for many years (launch scheduled by distributors, not you, btw) all while getting attacked by a VERY expensive PR smear campaign because you filed a sexual harassment claim for the very film you have to go out and promote with just the right tone or you get cooked!?”

Johnson noted that it looks like Lively, 37, is “doing a hell of a job to me and trying to do good things for the right reasons.”

“But yeah let’s post from our couch how much we hate her for making mistakes,” he continued. “That makes sense. I mean, she’s been rude in these interviews that magically played on repeat. I saw it. None of us have ever been wrong or mean. Never. We should discount decades of good for those few bad moments. Glad the microscope isn’t on me every day of my life.”

In another comment, Johnson clarified what he meant by a “girl boss,” explaining the term “means a woman that is kicking a$$ as an entrepreneur and/or business owner in what has been previously dominated by men, and showing they are every bit as capable and qualified if not more so in that space. She’s my hero as is any woman charging it like this. You’re free to define it as you wish, but that’s on you.”

Robyn Lively Reacts to Sister Blake Lively’s Lawsuit Against Justin Baldoni

Johnson’s comments came one day after Lively filed a lawsuit against Baldoni. In the lawsuit, which was obtained by Us Weekly after it was reported by TMZ and The New York Times, Lively accused Baldoni of launching a “social manipulation” campaign against her to “destroy” her reputation. (Baldoni’s lawyer called the accusations “completely false” in a statement to Us.)

Johnson’s wife, Robyn Lively, supported her sister via social media on Saturday. “FINALLY justice for my sister @blakelively,” Robyn, 52, wrote via Instagram Story, sharing screenshots of a New York Times article about Blake’s lawsuit.

Johnson previously came to Blake’s defense after fans began speculating that there was tension between the It Ends With Us costars she was seen promoting the film with some of her costars — while Baldoni didn’t join for interviews or press opportunities.

In the comments section of Johnson’s August Instagram post, a user critiqued Blake for “promoting happiness in a domestic violence setting without any regard for any victims.”

“Ellen I’m really sorry you feel that way. I’m sure you have a huge heart and want the best. I can promise you the truth has not come out yet. Blake worked harder on this film than anything I’ve seen her do my entire life,” he wrote at the time. “Because it meant so much to her. The message is in the book. And in the movie. Not in short clips / interviews. She is the reason the message / this movie/ is getting out.”

Johnson also acknowledged that nobody is perfect. “Were mistakes made? Yes. I make mistakes in life,” he wrote. “But they aren’t under a microscope. Anyway, I respect your views. I got nothing but love for you. ❤.”

After the response, the user thanked Johnson for his “lovely comment.” Johnson replied, “Thanks for that kind response Ellen to that Ellen. Means a lot. ❤❤ The truth hasn’t come out yet. It’s going to.”

Rachel Recchia Shuts Down Blake Moynes Dating Rumors — Again

Rachel Recchia on Blake Moynes Dating Rumors
Rachel Recchia, Blake Moynes

Former Bachelorette Rachel Recchia is squashing romance rumors between her and Blake Moynes — again.

After “Almost Famous” cohost Trista Sutter said she will “always ship” the pair, Rachel, 28, admitted that people “always do.”

“He is like one of my best friends,” Rachel said on the Saturday, December 21, episode of the podcast. “We are so different. We have such different types.”

Rachel explained that Blake, 34, has a “wider range” of a type, while she prefers a “more feminine guy era.”

The Bachelorette’s Rachel Recchia Addresses Blake Moynes Dating Rumors

“Blake says I have to stop doing that. He’s like, ‘That’s why you can’t find a boyfriend,’” Rachel said. “[He’s like], ‘You need, like, a manly guy.’ I’m like, ‘I have not been looking for that so I’m trying to keep an open mind.’”

Rachel noted that she’s been dipping her toe back in the dating pool, but had no updates to share about her love life at the moment. “When I can, I will let you know,” she said. “I have been dating a little. There will be something to report, but not currently.”

In August, Rachel shut down speculation that she and Blake were more than friends after she was spotted supporting him at the 17th annual Oceana Seachange Summer Party with Nautica in Laguna Beach, California.

“We went to an event together. Everyone wants us to be a couple so bad,” she said on an episode of the “Almost Famous” podcast at the time. “I feel like we always address the rumor over and over again. We’re still not a couple. We’re friends.”

Rachel Recchia Looks for Love Again in New ‘Bachelor n Paradise’ Teaser

Despite cohost Ashley Iaconetti noting that the duo “look really cute together,” Rachel said they hadn’t locked lips once. “He’s my most solid guy friend. I go to him for everything,” she explained. “Who would I go to then if we had that weird kiss, and then things got awkward?”

After not finding The One on previous seasons of the franchise, Rachel and Blake were both contestants on season 9 of Bachelor in Paradise in 2023. The twosome decided to exit the show in week 4 when they didn’t find a romantic connection on the beaches of Mexico.

“We went to Paradise together. We’ve been friends and have done trips for over a year,” Rachel explained of their friendship. “If it was meant to be, I think it would have happened.”

Prior to the romance rumors with Blake, Rachel ended her and Gabby Windey’s season 19 of The Bachelorette engaged to Tino Franco but the twosome split after it was revealed he kissed someone during a rough patch in their relationship. Blake, for his part, was engaged to Katie Thurston in 2021 but they broke up months later.

Years after her season of The Bachelorette with Gabby Windey, Rachel Recchia had a former flame slide into her DMs.

“I got a DM from one of these guys who rejected my rose,” Rachel, 28, said on the Saturday, December 21, episode of the “Almost Famous” podcast, noting that she received the message about a month ago. “He unsent the message, but I have a screenshot.”

While questioning why the contestant would send the DM, Rachel said, “If you’re going to send a message like that, which he’s also kind of apologizing in a way, say it with your full chest.”

“He starts off, ‘Yo. What’s up Rachel, so random, I know. I was literally just thinking about my time at the Bach house and all the regrets I have from not seeing things through. I definitely had to reach out because it’s something on my mind, and is something I’ve thought about for a couple years. What could’ve been and how fun things could have/be,’” she read. “‘So I’m just reaching out to see if you’d be down to chill and grab a drink or two and vibe out.’”

Rachel Recchia Reacts to Fan Recreating Her and Tino's Breakup

Rachel explained that she thinks the contestant is thinking about how he “totally lost the experience” of the show.

“I’m like, ‘You didn’t even give me a shot and so I will not be giving you a shot now,’” she said. “But you know what, we could have been something.”

Rachel explained that the former suitor, who follows her on Instagram, “chose to go home” during week 2 even though she “wanted him there.”

“I feel bad reading it, but you get me,” Rachel told cohost and former Bachelorette Trista Sutter. “That’s crazy.”

Rachel Speaks Out After Zach References Their Past — Again — on 'Bachelor'

While recalling her time as the lead with Gabby, 33, Rachel explained that the contestants split up between the two women.

“The boys, from what I gathered, didn’t know that once you didn’t get a rose from one, you didn’t get it from the other one,” Rachel said. “So, one guy said, ‘No,’ to my rose because he thought he could get Gabby’s, which, fair, and then it just tumbled.”

Rachel called this rose ceremony “the most humiliating night” of her life. “Your confidence is already like, ‘Do these guys like me?’ I’m so nervous, I’m doing this for the first time,” she said. “To have people be like, ‘I would rather go home than even date you,’ … it was horrible.”

From Rachel’s perspective, the men “really want to have power.” She added, “They’re so used to being the one to be the pursuer and it’s when it’s in our hands, I feel like it takes their masculinity away. When they feel like, ‘Oh, I’m not your front runner, I’m just going to leave because I don’t want you to reject me,’”

Rachel ultimately ended up accepting a proposal from Tino Franco on season 19 of the ABC series, but the pair called it quits when it was revealed he had kissed another woman during a rough patch in their relationship.

Kourtney Kardashian Jokes Khloe Was 'Star' of the Show in Throwback Video

Kourtney Kardashian Jokes Khloe Was Star of the Show in Throwback Video of Sisters Singing
Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian

The Kardashian sisters were always meant to be stars.

Kourtney Kardashian shared a cute throwback video via Instagram on Sunday, December 22, of her and her sisters, Khloe and Kim, dressed up and performing along to the song “I Think We’re Alone Now” by ‘80s singer Tiffany.

“I think we all know who the real star is here and it rhymes with snowy,” Kourtney, 45, wrote in the caption, referring to her younger sister, Khloe, 40.

While the sweet home video shows a young Kim, 44, and Kourtney shyly singing along on each side, the real star of the video is toddler Khloe, who is singing along center stage with sunglasses and attitude.

Breaking Down the Pettiest Scandals — and Feuds — of 2024

“IKONIK,” Khloe commented on her sister’s post. The trio wore gold metallic outfits with puffy sleeves in the throwback clip,, seemingly a choice made by their famous mother, Kris Jenner.

“I seriously should’ve been a Stylist,” commented Jenner, 69, on the video. “Look at these outfits some of my best work 🤩.”

Jenner and her daughters still seem to see eye-to-eye on fashion, so much so that she and Khloe accidentally wore matching outfits to a recent holiday party.

Each wore the same outfit of boots, with a tailored mini dress from Kylie Jenner’s brand Khy. The big difference is that Jenner wore the outfit in white, while her daughter sported the same look in all black.

Khloe posted a video of their mother-daughter twinning via her Instagram on Friday, December 20. In the post, the two played out a scene from their previous reality TV show Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

“It’s just not cool that you copy me,” lip synced Khloe over the sound from the original clip, where Kourtney accuses Jenner of wearing something too similar. “I go to lengths to try to get things that not everybody has.”

“OK, well, you can’t return those,” Kris mimed in return.

Khloe made it clear in the caption that the twin-cident was unintentional. “We didn’t plan this…We just showed up at the same holiday party like this 💚🎄♥ in our @khy.”

Kris Jenner Teams Up With Daughter Kylie in Winter-Chic New Khy Ad

Kourtney seemed to find the outfit mishap funny as well, commenting “never cool to copy,” on her sister’s post.

This isn’t Jenner’s first time supporting Kylie’s foray into the fashion world. For her daughter’s newest collection, Khy X Entire studios, which officially launched on December 12, Kris lent her modeling skills as the face of the new collection.

“ME BY KYLIE FOR KHY!!!” the momager posted in a caption via Instagram on December 9. “So happy to be a part of @khy new collection in collaboration with @entire_studios, and shot by @kyliejenner!”

Blake Lively Interviewer Denies Being Part of Alleged Smear Campaign

22 December 2024 at 15:16
Journalist Clarifies She Wasnt Part of Blake Lively Smear Campaign
Kjersti Flaa and Journalist Clarifies She Wasnt Part of

Kjersti Flaa, the journalist who previously said an interview with Blake Lively made her want to “quit” her job, has denied being part of an alleged smear campaign against the actress.

“OK, so I have to say something because now I see that things are starting to snowball and people start thinking that I had anything to do with the smear campaign against Blake Lively, that was orchestrated allegedly by Justin Baldoni and his team,” Flaa said via Instagram on Saturday, December 21, adding that she had read through the lawsuit and the alleged “dirty work” going on behind-the-scenes. “I just wanted to say I had nothing to do with it.”

Flaa said she was “shocked” and “appalled” by the text messages between Baldoni’s PR team that were included in the lawsuit filed by Lively, 37, on Friday, December 20.

“I would never take part in anything like that,” she said. “That’s such an insult to me.”

Journalist Calls Timing of Resharing Blake Lively Interview a 'Coincidence'

Flaa said she doesn’t want “to be a part of this,” noting that she shared a video from a previous interview with Lively and “that’s it.”

“Just wanted to put it out there,” Flaa captioned her Instagram post. “I have nothing to do with Justin Baldoni and his smear campaign against Blake Lively that was reported on by The New York Times today. There are conspiracy theories out there accusing me of being paid by his PR team to help with their smear campaign. None of this is true.”

News broke on Saturday that Lively sued It Ends With Us costar and director Baldoni, 40, for sexual harassment. In the lawsuit, which was obtained by Us Weekly after it was reported by TMZ and The New York Times, Lively accused Baldoni of launching a “social manipulation” campaign against her to “destroy” her reputation.

Flaa released a lengthier statement via YouTube on Saturday, explaining that she “would never accept money to jeopardize my integrity as a journalist.”

Reporter Reveals Why Blake Lively’s 2016 ‘Little Bump’ Joke Was ‘A Bullet’

“I see how people are trying to make a connection here that I have been working with Justin Baldoni’s PR company because it’s just too much of a coincidence that my video was posted at that time,” she said, explaining that she “had a bad experience with Blake Lively” and decided to post the video after watching It Ends With Us.

In August, Flaa released a clip of Lively and Parker Posey from the 2016 Café Society press tour titled: “The Blake Lively interview that made me want to quit my job.” In the clip, tensions grew between Flaa and Lively after the journalist congratulated the actress on her “little bump” and inquired about period costumes in the film.

“When my video came out, it added fuel to the fire against Blake Lively,” Flaa said, claiming that she had “no idea what was going on” on the set of It Ends With Us.

Blake Lively Claims Justin Baldoni Texted About Ruining Her Reputation

Flaa noted that she “never defended” Baldoni. “I don’t know him,” she said. “I never met him. Actually, I didn’t know he existed until It Ends With Us. So I have no sympathy towards any of these people that are involved.”

While pointing out specific text messages between Baldoni’s PR team in Lively’s lawsuit, Flaa calls the exchange “kind of disgusting.”

“The thing is, I don’t want anything to do with it,” she said. “I know nothing about Justin Baldoni. I know nothing about his PR team. And I definitely would never work with a PR team under any circumstances to put hate out there on the internet against someone, or to smear someone. I would never ever do that.”

Christmas Movies That Aren't Technically Christmas Movies

22 December 2024 at 14:15

Move over, Home Alone! There’s no shortage of films to watch over the Christmas season, but there are more movies to add to the queue beyond It’s a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th Street or A Christmas Story.

Die Hard is the quintessential film that wasn’t considered a Christmas classic at first. However, some fans count the 1988 thriller among their favorite holiday flicks.

In the film, New York City cop John McClane (Bruce Willis) reunites with his estranged wife (Bonnie Bedelia) in Los Angeles at her office’s Christmas Eve party. John must rescue the employees after a gang of terrorists take them hostage.

Die Hard director John McTiernan might not have intended for the action film to become a Christmas classic. Author Larry Taylor detailed McTiernan’s initial intentions for the movie in his book John McTiernan: Rise and Fall of An Action Movie Icon.

“He didn’t consciously make it a Christmas movie, but he made sure to weave certain elements of it into the tapestry of the film,” Taylor explained. “It would keep the holiday season right behind the action, and it would help alleviate some of the stress of the intense action.”

Michael Jackson’s son Prince Jackson got candid about the legacy of his dad in a rare interview.

“I come from a very rich family history, and those are some big shoes to fill,” Prince, 27, told Associated Press on Thursday, December 19. “I don’t know if I ever could. But I wear it with … it’s like a badge of honor.”

Prince noted that he and his siblings — sister Paris Jackson, 26, and brother Bigi Jackson, 22 — have held onto a piece of their late father in various ways.

“My siblings and I, we each kind of got a piece of him in different ways,” Prince said. “For me, it’s that philanthropic kind of giving back, and that’s where I’m really passionate about. I just hope the work that we do makes him proud.”

Inside Michael Jackson's Kids' Lives 15 Years After His Death

Prince honored his father through cofounding the nonprofit Heal Los Angeles in 2016 while a student at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles. Ahead of the holidays, Prince hosted an event at a Mattel toy store on Tuesday allowing kids to load up on toys to take home.

“It warms my heart when we see the kids smile at the end of the day,” he said. “So, it’s really fun.”

Michael welcomed Prince and Paris with ex-wife Debbie Rowe, whom he was married to from 1996 to 1999. Son Bibi arrived via surrogate in 2002.

While reflecting on Michael’s legacy following the 15th anniversary of his death, a source exclusively told Us Weekly that the “King of Pop” would be proud of where his kids are today. (Michael died at the age of 50 in 2009.)

“Molly doesn’t care about Prince’s fame or who his family is,” a third insider said in April, noting that Schirmang gets along well with Paris and Bigi. “They want the same things out of life and are taking each day as it comes.”

While balancing his relationship with Schirmang, Prince also has a close bond with his younger siblings.

“They are each other’s best friends and all stick together,” the second source said. “Michael would be so happy.”

One Chicago Casts' Dating Histories: Who the Stars Have Dated in Real Life

22 December 2024 at 14:05

The casts of Chicago Med, Chicago Fire and Chicago P.D. continually bring the heat on screen — and some of the stars have equally as fiery romances off camera.

Chicago P.D.’s Jesse Lee Soffer and Sophia Bush, for example, dated from 2014 to 2016. Their red-hot relationship seemed to mirror their TV characters’ Jay Halstead and Erin Lindsay’s romance. Following their split — and Bush’s exit from the series — Soffer briefly dated Chicago Med’s Torrey DeVitto.

Chicago Fire’s Taylor Kinney, meanwhile, made headlines in 2015 when he got engaged to Lady Gaga. The relationship eventually fizzled out, but fans’ desire to learn about their favorite One Chicago star’s love lives remains alive and well.
