[This story contains major spoilers from the season finale of Palm Royale.]
After a series of unsavory encounters with the black sheep of their exclusive social club in Palm Royale, Leslie Bibb’s character Dinah told Maxine two episodes ago, “I cannot tell if you are a country bumpkin or the most ruthless woman in Palm Beach.” If you ask Kristen Wiig — who portrays the eager newcomer into the wealthy Florida community — for her take, however, she’ll tell you, “I don’t think she’s either one of those things.”
Those words might not best characterize the former Chattanooga pageant queen who tries to impress a different set of judges in the Apple TV+ series (the unneighborly socialites she meets at the exclusive Palm Royale beach club when she moves to Palm Beach). But the duality of Maxine was an aspect of her character that Wiig worked hard to showcase.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Palm Royale Season 1 finale, “Maxine Throws a Party.”] Palm Royale‘s Beach Ball arrived in the Season 1 finale and delivered more than one explosive cliffhanger surrounding Maxine (Kristen Wiig), Norma (Carol Burnett), and their complicated societal entanglements. After spending most of the season preparing to throw the annual event, Maxine’s world was blown apart with the revelation that her husband Douglas (Josh Lucas) had cheated on her with manicurist Mitzi (Kaia Gerber), resulting in a pregnancy. The metaphorical bomb was dropped just seconds before Maxine took to the stage to deliver her performance of “Is That All There Is?” which soon turned into a monologue about her observations on life. At the same time, viewers learn that Norma, Douglas’s wealthy aunt, isn’t in fact a Dellacort, and seemingly murdered her former boarding school classmate, assuming her identity and inheritance. How do we know this? Robert (Ricky Martin...

Amidst a flurry of floral frocks adorning the red carpet, Kaia Gerber took a bold departure, opting for a sleek and sophisticated ensemble as she attended the 2024 Met Gala on Monday, May 6, in New York City.
Among the stars gracing the glitzy affair were A-list celebrities such as Zendaya, Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, Brie Larson, Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, and many more, each adding their unique flair to the night’s festivities.
Inspired by this year’s Costume Institute theme, “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,” Kaia made her mark on the Metropolitan Museum of Art steps with an elegant attire that some might argue deviated from the event’s “Garden of Time” dress code.
Sophisticated in an Elegant All-White Prada Gown

With everything going the way it is in the world right now, we’re laughing to keep less cheery emotions at bay. At least this bizarre, still-very-much-in-progress century has already produced a slew of spectacular, silly, snarky, and cynical comedies: ready to fire up whenever you need a serotonin burst or distraction thanks to the ever-growing cadre of streaming services.
The pandemic may be in the rearview for the U.S. federal government, but the specter of war, a tortured economy, and human rights issues across the globe have occupied the minds of many instead. So, in desperate need of some humor, we thought it was more important than ever to give our Greatest Comedies of the 21st Century list, originally published in 2017, yet another rethink. Since the list was originally published, we’ve expanded it to 90 entries, including titles released since then that deserved including and other titles we somehow overlooked the first time.

J.K. Simmons has joined the cast of Jason Reitman’s SNL 1975, and not only will the Oscar winner be playing Hollywood legend Milton Berle, but he’ll have the notable distinction of becoming the first actual SNL host to join the cast of the Sony movie.
Simmons hosted the Jan. 31, 2015 episode of Saturday Night Live, which featured D’Angelo as the musical guest. At the time, Simmons was riding high off an Oscar nomination for Whiplash, and he would go on to win the Academy Award following his SNL hosting stint.
Meanwhile, Berle hosted SNL on April 14, 1979, and Ornette Coleman was his musical guest. It’s unclear where Berle fits into Reitman’s movie at this moment in time.

Kristen Wiig, Allison Janney, Laura Dern and Ricky Martin are headed to 1960s Florida in Apple TV+’s newest drama series, “Palm Royale.”
Wiig stars in the new series as underdog Maxine Simmons, who is desperate to join the high society ranks of Palm Beach’s most exclusive club, the Palm Royale. While the housewives of the club begrudgingly entertain Maxine’s pleas to enter the group, Maxine quickly sees the facade of even the most polished woman fade.
Set in 1969, “Palm Royale” asks the same question that still baffles us today: “How much of yourself are you willing to sacrifice to get what someone else has?”

Striking a tonal balance between drama and comedy can be difficult. It’s even harder when the series must adhere to a specific place and time. Yet Palm Royale, which debuts on March 20th on Apple TV+, makes a strong play for the Mad Men demographic. Equal parts stylish, melodramatic, and witty, there’s a lot to like about Palm Royale. However, even with one of the greatest casts ever assembled for a television show on paper, one cannot help but feel disappointed. There are fun performances, but its premise and story feel antiquated in 2024.
Palm Royale Plot
Based on the novel Mr. & Mrs. American Pie by Juliet McDaniel, Palm Royale follows Maxine Simmons-Dellacort (Kristen Wiig) as she walks in two worlds. She reaches for high status at the Palm Royal Club, where the socialites of Palm Beach lounge. Among her idols are Dinah Donahue (Leslie Bibb), Evelyn Rollins (Allison Janney...

Enlightened was more than just the title of the HBO TV series Laura Dern starred in from 2011-2013. It’s also the state of being the actress and her future producing partner, Jayme Lemons, found themselves in after Dern served as an executive producer and Lemons a first-time producer on the comedy-drama.
“Once we had that experience on Enlightened, we both felt like we have all of these other passions, maybe it’s time we focus more on getting these projects done,” Dern tells The Hollywood Reporter in the conversation below.
Thus the creation of Jaywalker Pictures in 2017, Dern and Lemons’ production company whose projects span genres.

Like last year, Nick Taylor and Cláudio Alves are following and recapping RuPaul’s Drag Race season sixteen…
In design challenges, these two are unbeatable. They're dressmaking monsters!
CLÁUDIO: Another design challenge! What’s this, season 3?
Regardless of repetition, it’s time for this year’s batch of queens to refamiliarize themselves with the sewing machines, for Drag Race has devised a challenge to celebrate Neo-Goth style. But of course, it’s closer to a Tim Burton lovefest, complete with Wednesday references and whatnot. Indeed, as much as I appreciated Kaia Gerber’s presence on the panel, MTV should have found a way to nab Colleen Atwood as the episode’s Extra Special Guest Judge - now there’s someone who knows how to make magic happen with black fabrics and a spooky outline. But maybe I’m getting ahead of myself...

“RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 16 continued on March 1 with episode 9 on MTV. Airing concurrently with the main show is its tea-spilling, backstage-focused sister series “Untucked,” now in its 15th season. For this week’s challenge, the eight remaining queens faced their third design challenge in a task to create a “Neo-Goth” look that is both darkly twisted and fashionable. All of them received critiques from the judges and then made their way as a full group to the lounge with an unclear vision of how the winner and bottom two placements would unfold.
Plane Jane was a bit surprised that she got a “mixed bag” of critiques and wondered if maybe this is the week she should have used her Immunity Potion. Dawn told her that she made a “lovely and detailed” garment, but compared to the other more intricate designs by her, Q and Nymphia Wind, it didn’t measure up.
