It's almost time to say goodbye to 2019.  There's just a few short weeks left in this wild and unpredictable year, but before we can turn the page on this particular chapter of our lives and get ourselves ready for all that 2020 has in store, we thought we'd take one last good look back at the year through the pop culture moments that helped to define it. From the break ups we didn't see coming to the records that were broken, the music we kept on repeat to the memes we had to retweet, 2019 was anything but dull. Whether we were scratching our heads over that first Cats trailer or squealing at the sight of Baby Yoda, learning Aunt Becky was wanted by the Feds or loving that Taylor Swift and...

With more than 150 acting credits under his belt, Jack Black has a hard time keeping track of his roles.

In a video interview shared by Variety on Monday, the actor, 50, hilariously forgot about his role in the 2006 romantic comedy, The Holiday. When asked about his favorite movie to watch over the holidays, Black completely glanced over his own film in favor of another Christmas classic.

“My favorite holiday film — it’s got to be Elf,” he says in the clip. “Jon Favreau and Will Ferrell just knock it out of the park.”

“You could have said your own movie,” the interviewer says,

The Bella Twins certainly made Liv Morgan's first-ever vacation a memorable one. On Tuesday's season nine finale of Total Divas, the 25-year-old wrestler revealed that their girls' trip to Maui was her first time going on a vacation. Morgan revealed this tidbit while enjoying a sunset with Brie Bella, Nikki Bella, Carmella and Nattie Neidhart.

Beyoncé's father Mathew Knowles is opening up about the "poor decision" he made in the early aughts that allegedly affected his daughter and Kelly Rowland during their Destiny's Child days. During a sit-down video interview with Vlad TV, to promote his latest book, the 67-year-old talent manager and businessman claimed that Beyoncé and Kelly were victims of sexual harassment by two members of the group Jagged Edge.

Britney Spears will do whatever it takes to be there for her children.  Three months after the pop star and ex Kevin Federline reached a new custody agreement, a source tells E! News that Spears plans to make it her "mission" to get more time with her sons. As it stands, Spears has 30 percent, unsupervised custodial rights of 13-year-old Jayden and 14-year-old Sean, while Federline has majority custody. Prior to September's change in their co-parenting agreement, the former couple had committed to 50-50 custody. Explains our insider, "Britney would love to have more custody of the boys. She hates that Kevin has them more and she feels like it's a...

This Crisis is really causing some problems, huh?  Tonight's ep of the giant CW crossover ramped things up as half the crew searched for a way to bring back Oliver and the other half worked to slow the rapidly moving wave of anti-matter that was threatening to destroy every single thing ever.  This brought in John Wesley Shipp as the Flash from Earth-90, and Cress Williams as Black Lightning from Black Lightning, whose family and universe had apparently been destroyed. This was the moment from the episode that really gave us pause, because we just don't feel like it's likely anyone from Black Lightning would let these other shows destroy their universe. That means there's hope that...

And then there were five. For the first time tonight, all six of the remaining Masked Singer contestants performed all in one group and even shared the stage together before unmasking yet another singer.  That singer ended up being the Tree, the jazzy funny lady who turned out to be none other than Ana Gasteyer, singer of her own jazz Christmas album, an alum of A Christmas Story Live, who's also known for the the classic Schweddy Balls sketch on Saturday Night Live. She was also a customer of the Soup Nazi on Seinfeld, and played Elphaba in Wicked, which were both parts of the clues.  In fact, she starred alongside Ken Jeong in A Christmas Story, so he was suitably mad at himself...

Andy Dick has been sentenced to jail — but is already a free man.

The comedian, who has been embroiled in a sexual battery case, was recently sentenced to 14 days behind bars for two charges — one for sexual battery and one for simple battery, TMZ reports.

The sentencing came after Dick, 53, failed to serve his court-mandated community service, according to the outlet.

However, inmate records from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department obtained by People indicate that once the comedian reported to the Van Nuys Jail on Dec. 6, Dick was released just one day later on Dec. 7.

Briana DeJesus and her ex John Rodriguez are still struggling to come up with an explanation for their breakup.  On last week's episode of Teen Mom, Briana explained she broke up with John because she woke up one day and realized she'd "stopped loving him." Briana continued, "It sucks because I kicked him to the curb but he didn't fight to be with me either. I wanted him to fight for me but he didn't." At the time, this seemed super straightforward, but in part two of the three part reunion, it's clear there's so much more to the story. During their talk with Dr. Drew Pinsky and Nessa, both John and Briana admitted they just stopped trying...

The truth may hurt, but this cover sure doesn't. Charlie Puth is giving Lizzo's song "Truth Hurts" a Broadway twist that is not to be missed. He was put up to the challenge while participating in a challenge with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon.  To get things started, the former Saturday Night Live star gave the "Cha Cha Slide" a '90s R&b spin, which was surprisingly smooth. But Charlie took it to another level when the random music generator landed on the song "Truth Hurts," with the Broadway genre. Without hesitation, Puth started playing the catchy beat on his keyboard before slowly singing the lyrics. Then, just as...

It’s been 13 years since the Christmas film favorite “The Holiday” hit theatres — and that’s enough time for Jack Black to forget he starred in it!

Every story has two sides. Caitlyn Jenner has been busy being a contestant on the U.K. reality television show I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here. Sadly, the star was eliminated this past weekend, and according to multiple outlets, her family wasn't there to welcome her home with open arms. However, Kim Kardashian and Caitlyn's son Brandon Jenner are calling Bs on those reports.  "Honestly, nobody reached out to set it up," Brandon told a fan on Instagram.

Fox News is facing yet another lawsuit. On Tuesday, Fox News host Britt McHenry filed a lawsuit against the network and its corporate parents, accusing them of "refusing to investigate some of her claims, shunning her, shutting her out of company events and refusing to allow her on Fox News Channel shows," according to documents obtained by E!

Is Tinsley Mortimer leaving Real Housewives of New York City? Not so fast... The reality star has sparked rumors of a possible departure from the Bravo series after getting engaged to beau Scott Kluth, who is based in Chicago.

Shortly before the proposal, a source told E! News that Tinsley has "been in Chicago with Scott" and, now that they're engaged, the couple is likely to make the move there permanent. But, that doesn't mean that Tinsley is done with Housewives. A source tells E! News that while Tinsley has not filmed in...

Cardi B had the right to remain silent...  Which is why she let her fashion do all the talking during a recent court appearance. The "Press" rapper certainly made a dramatic entrance at the Queens Criminal Court on Tuesday afternoon when she showed up wearing a larger-than-life coat by Adrienne Landau that featured an explosion of feathers, a colossal train and towering hood. And while her stylish piece was certainly a conversation starter, the 27-year-old star kept the rest of her ensemble simple, classic and chic. She paired her outerwear with a tailored white button-down, black pants, a matching tie and pumps. Her glam was also on-point for her court...
