Jessica Simpson is clearly not afraid to poke a little fun at herself.
The singer—who famously confused tuna and chicken while chowing down on a bowl of Chicken of the Sea in 2003—weighed in on the mix-up that took place at Whole Foods last week over the similarly-colored proteins.
The farm that supplied the grocery with their buffalo chicken salad recalled 440 pounds of the stuff after employees discovered that it actually contained tuna—a known allergen, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
While customers who purchased the mislabeled chicken may be upset with Whole Foods, Simpson is...

Despite director David Leitch’s ties to Keanu Reeves, Atomic Blonde is no Lady John Wick. Cold War locales may radiate similar neon hues (Wick’s Russian bath house), but this espionage thrill-kicker is more about consequence then henchman disposal. Revenge is merely an underlying motivation, as government parties fight to keep a power struggle concrete while the Berlin wall crumbles down. Would a Wick/Blonde crossover be powerful enough to level cities? Undeniably. Let’s first appreciate what we have, though – Charlize Theron giving everyone in Atomic Blonde the fucking business.
Berlin, 1989. A German city loaded with secret government operatives, as East/West tensions reach their breaking point. Britain, France, America – everyone has agents in Germany, but a rumored list could out every name if it were to be exposed. This is why MI6 Agent Lorraine Broughton (Charlize Theron) is sent to Germany, with a mission of retrieval. Her...

5ive's numbers have dwindled over the last few years, but not anymore. Self-proclaimed superfan Jack Whitehall and retired cricketer Freddie Flintoff have joined their ranks.
The pair will take to the stage for a special performance with the boyband on tonight's (May 29) episode of A League Of Their Own.
When the boys start discussing what is on their bucket lists, Whitehall admits that he's always wanted the chance to perform with the '90s boyband, prompting a special visit from remaining members Sean Conlon, Ritchie Neville, and Scott Robinson.
5ive were the subject of a particularly inventive April Fool's Day joke this year, when it was reported that they were joining forces with Blue to form supergroup Flue.
The boyband quickly dashed fans' hopes by confirming it was just a prank, but they didn't seem against the idea of performing with Blue in the future.

Kimberly Wyatt has been eliminated from The Jump.
The former Pussycat Doll exited the show after losing out to Steve Redgrave in the live jump.
Wyatt jumped from the K24, the medium slope, but her distance of 14.5m was deemed a foul after she fell shortly after landing.
Her disqualification left ex-Olympian Redgrave, who jumped last and did not compete in the evening's main event due to a hand injury, with the task of only having to land a qualifying jump to progress.
His solid landing after travelling 9m was enough to take him through to the semi-final, joining Anthea Turner (13m) and Ritchie Neville (11.5m).
Six celebrities took part in the speed skating event in tonight's (January 31) programme.

Anthea Turner and Ritchie Neville have been eliminated from 'The Jump'. The pair narrowly missed out on a spot in the final of the celebrity winter sports competition on Sunday night (02.02.14), after losing out to Donal McIntyre in the ski jump challenge, following their poor scores in the slalom, which along with speed-skiing, was one of the key events. Upon exiting the contest, Ritchie told show host Davina McCall: ''I've had an amazing time. I said I'm going to come here and give it 100%, and that's exactly what I did.'' The event saw winners Joe McElderry, Sir Steve Redgrave and Marcus...

Nicky got on the phone with reporters this morning to discuss what his "gripe" with the show is, who he thinks is going to win and those outfits, so read on to find out what he had to say...
Were you expecting to get further in the competition? Were you disappointed?
"When you're in a group of 12 people and having been in training you can establish who is a good skier or not a good skier, I certainly put myself in the top half in terms of my skiing ability. So no, I wasn't expecting to be out then... It's unfortunate.

Have you already been on Dancing On Ice? Is Splash! not returning your calls? If that's the case, worry not, welcome to The Jump. Channel 4's latest abysmal attempt to fill a Big Brother-shaped hole in their schedules.
While Emma Willis was fronting one of the best-ever series of Celebrity Big Brother over on Channel 5, poor old Davina McCall was freezing her bits off in the Austrian mountains. Celebrities on The Jump, you are live on Channel 4, please do not swear of break your f**king leg.

ITV2's Big Reunion has been the best TV show of 2013 so far. Full stop. Every 'serious' drama, oh-so-dull crime procedural and glossy Us import has paled in comparison to the explosive fall-outs and grisly secrets of the British pop industry of the '90s.
The stars of the show have been '90s bad boys of pop 5ive. A group who imploded so dramatically that they now only have four members. But we don't talk about that.

911 have predicted that Jason 'J' Brown will regret snubbing The Big Reunion.
The 'Bodyshakin' boyband have made a comeback on the ITV2 show, along with Brown's former band 5ive, B*Witched, Atomic Kitten, Honeyz, Liberty X and Blue.
Brown decided not to join up with his former bandmates Sean Conlon, Ritchie Neville, Abz Love and Scott Robinson on the show.
"I tell you what, he might regret it," 911's Lee Brennan told Heat. "He's obviously got his personal reasons for doing it, but maybe after he's seen this show."
Spike Dawbarn revealed that Brown was never a fan of being part of 5ive, and even turned down the chance to join 911 in the mid-1990s.
He said: "Jay never wanted to do it the first time. My cousin used to go out with him, so we know each other and I was asking her about it and she said, 'I've spoke to him.

For this perfect slice of ITV2 fare, instead of going to all the trouble of contriving a new band from a bunch of nobodies, somebody had the bright idea of taking a load of yester-somebodies, putting them in a room together and seeing what happened. The excuse was a one-off concert and a last shot at fame for these once bright 20-somethings, now emerged blinking from their pop bubble with varying degrees of dignity, humour and cynicism. The result was Celebrity Big Brother meets Where Are They Now? meets a particularly confrontational antagonistic episode of Mr and Mrs.

The 1990s and early-2000s boyband have reunited for the upcoming ITV2 special The Big Reunion, to be broadcast later this month. Created by Simon Cowell, the group scored several number one hits in the UK, but they have revealed that things were not always rosy behind the scenes. "On stage we were the best ever, off stage we were a train wreck," Scott Robinson said. "Life in 5ive was mental. It was five years of very hard work. You see the inside of a hotel room, an airport, a radio studio, it's hard." Abs said: "I know there were times when one of them would be p***ed off with another one [in the band]. There'd be fights going off."
