The wild, hydrated life of skincare guru to the stars Ole Henriksen is being prepped for the big screen.
The 74-year-old is the subject of a new biopic project mounted by frequent Martin Scorsese collaborator Niels Juul through his No Fat Ego along with author-turned-screenwriter James Wyllie. The news was announced during the Cannes Film Festival on Wednesday morning at a press event aboard the Lady Jersey yacht docked on the Albert Edouard jetée in the city’s old port. Henriksen took a seat on a sofa on the yacht’s upper deck where he participated in a panel discussion about the vision for the project alongside his creative collaborators.
“It’s been two years in the making,” Juul told The Hollywood Reporter of the project which is in the early stages and does not have a director or talent attached but does have a finished screenplay from Wyllie reportedly titled The Glowing Man.

Tom Cruise has done more than just cement his position in Hollywood as one of the most praiseworthy action heroes of all time. He is famed for performing his death-defying stunts alone and for his spectacular acting. But, like pretty much every other celebrity out there, he has some regrets about some of the infamous stunts he pulled off earlier in his career.
While a majority of his career has been filled with commendation and acclaim to the brim, there have also been parts that have turned out to be severe career mistakes, as Cruise has himself admitted. One of these, ostensibly, was the one interview where he really didn’t hesitate to come off as arrogant: His infamous interview with Matt Lauer from almost two decades ago.

When Friends first made its way to the screens back in 1994, no one knew that it would become successful enough to spawn ten outstanding seasons released over the course of a decade. If anything, the masterpiece sitcom became such a massive hit that when it went off the air two decades ago, fans and viewers were left absolutely shattered and heartbroken.
This was only understandable: Spending all that time with the spectacular characters of Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Matthew Perry, Courteney Cox, Matt LeBlanc, and David Schwimmer had fans more than just emotionally attached to the show. But the cast was actually emotionally guarded at the beginning for a chilling reason, as admitted by Schwimmer.

Before the Oscar controversy and the headlines surrounding his personal life soured his public image, Will Smith had long established himself as one of Hollywood’s most versatile and bankable stars. From his early days as a rapper to becoming a household name on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Smith’s career has spanned decades and genres, with jaw-dropping range.
In 2001, he took on one of his most challenging roles in his entire career, and that was portraying boxing legend Muhammad Ali in Michael Mann’s critically acclaimed biopic Ali. The real Muhammad Ali himself was moved by Smith’s portrayal.
So, with all due respect to Sylvester Stallone and his iconic Rocky legacy, it might be time to pass the title. After all, if Muhammad Ali gave his nod of approval, Will Smith may just be the best boxer Hollywood has ever seen, on screen, at least.

An appeals court has temporarily blocked Sony from taking over distribution of syndicated game shows Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune from CBS.
California’s Second Appellate District on Thursday paused a Los Angeles judge’s order last week denying CBS’s bid for a preliminary injunction, allowing the network to continue distributing the shows. That ruling, which allowed Sony not to deliver episodes to CBS, is “stayed pending further order of this court,” a three-judge panel ruled.
Sony produces the two long-running shows, which are perennially among the most watched syndicated programs on broadcast TV. In February, Sony took over CBS’ role as a distributor after claiming that the network breached its contract by entering into unauthorized licensing agreements. CBS later filed for a restraining order seeking to keep the terms of the deal in place.

Sony will take over distribution of syndicated game shows Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune from CBS, a court has ruled.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Kevin Brazile, in a tentative ruling issued on Thursday, denied CBS’ bid for a court order that would’ve temporarily blocked Sony’s efforts from assuming distribution.
“Sony can begin distributing the Shows and need not deliver episodes to CBS,” the order stated.
In a statement, CBS Media Ventures said the ruling will be immediately appealed. It added, “This is only a preliminary ruling based on partial evidence, not the outcome of the full case. We’re confident once all the evidence is heard at trial, we will prevail on the merits. In today’s ruling, the court itself recognized the balance of harm tips in CBS’s favor, so we will ask the appellate court for a stay pending our appeal.”

The famous figure in the media world, Oprah Winfrey once faced a marked challenge that nearly destroyed her plans.

Nathan Lane said in an interview with Vanity Fair that he lost out on a role in 1996’s “Space Jam” and was told it was because he was just “too gay.” While Lane said he never knows “what goes on behind closed doors,” he “can’t help but think” that homophobia “played a part” in shaping the roles he could or couldn’t do. He cited “Space Jam” as an example.
“I was told [being gay did] impact a movie that I didn’t really care about: ‘Space Jam.’ I was up for the part that the guy from ‘Seinfeld’ wound up playing,” Lane said of being up for the role of Michael Jordan’s publicist and assistant Stan, ultimately played by Wayne Knight in the movie. “I was up for that part. Apparently the director saw me hosting the Tony Awards and thought that suggested I was too gay to play the part.

Nathan Lane remembers working with the late Gene Hackman on “The Birdcage” as “the thrill of a lifetime.” Sitting with Stephen Colbert on “The Late Show” Tuesday, the actor shared that one of the more memorable scenes between their characters in the 1996 Mike Nichols movie actually featured unscripted ad-libs that made it all the more memorable.
“I think I told him every morning that he was my favorite actor … He was like Spencer Tracy, you couldn’t catch him acting. He could do comedy or drama beautifully. And he was such a smart actor,” Lane told Colbert before recalling the scene where his character — who is in drag — and Hackman’s sing and dance to “I Could Have Danced All Night” from “My Fair Lady.”
“And then at the end, we’re leaving the scene, we’re going into dinner, and I ad-libbed, I said, ‘You know I played Eliza in high school?...

Was Will Smith and Eva Mendes’ on-screen Kiss in Hitch almost a disaster?(Photo Credit – YouTube)
During an interview on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Mendes spilled the hilarious backstory of their kissing scene. Nervous before filming, she calmed herself with a tuna fish sandwich, extra onions, and a side of Doritos—bad move. Smith, known for his charm and professionalism, was reportedly not fond of the scent. Mendes admitted, “I never asked you how it was?” to which Smith, ever the gentleman, replied, “It was wonderful.”
The moment became one of the film’s funniest behind-the-scenes stories. Mendes, realizing her mistake, popped some Altoids before the scene resumed. The minty fix worked, and their kiss went down in rom-com history. But for a moment, Hitch almost had an unintentional blooper reel addition.

So many things happened when Tom Cruise appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show in 2005.
The audience went wild before Cruise hit the stage, filling Harpo Studios in Chicago with deafening screams, applause and even some tears. When the world’s biggest movie star finally appeared on set to join Winfrey for an interview that altered pop culture forever, he delivered a passionately unhinged performance that found him professing his love for new girlfriend (and future wife) Katie Holmes. He knelt on the floor multiple times, pumped his fists, clenched Winfrey’s hands and ultimately leapt onto the sofa with both feet.
Even Winfrey was caught off guard by the display. “What has happened to you?” she excitedly asked an undeniably giddy Cruise, who, by that point in his career, had been the picture of movie star perfection. Later she admitted, “We’ve never seen you behave this way before.” No one had.

Oprah Winfrey spent her Valentine’s Day celebrating a different type of love — the kind between longtime friends and creative partners — as she saluted Colman Domingo for his acclaimed performance in “Sing Sing.”
“This is an invitation I could not pass up,” Winfrey said as she strutted onto the stage at the Arlington Theatre in Santa Barbara to present Domingo with the Montecito Award at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival on Friday night.
And Winfrey didn’t have to travel far. The broadcast legend is a longtime Montecito resident, so the festival practically takes place in her backyard. Plus, Winfrey is also a previous recipient of same prize, awarded in 2014 for her work in “The Butler,” which is where her friendship with Domingo began.

If you're only familiar with director Steven Soderbergh's take on Danny Ocean's (George Clooney) story in his "Ocean's" trilogy — which kicked off in 2001 — you might not know that the actual first movie centering around a guy named Ocean and a big Las Vegas heist actually came out in 1960. So which ones in this series are the best, and which are the worst?
I feel pretty comfortable saying that I'm going to ruffle some feathers with this ranking, and I'm fine with that. I love picking hyper-specific hills and then dying upon them; it's one of my absolute favorite hobbies. Still, with just five "Ocean's" movies to choose from — putting aside the rumored prequel with Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie as Danny's parents — it's a fairly close ranking, but there's still a definitive answer.

Jerry Springer: Fights, Camera, Action reveals some insightful details about the show that overtook The Oprah Winfrey Show in the late 1990s and 2000s, including some comments by the Queen of All Media herself. While both The Jerry Springer Show and The Oprah Winfrey Show were popular talk shows that were characterized as tabloid talk shows, the two couldn't be more different. The Oprah Winfrey Show began airing in 1986, and within a relatively short time, the show swept the nation and became the most-viewed talk show of that era.
Jerry Springer's show began airing in late 1991, and like many other contemporary talk shows, it tried to carve out some space in the talk show landscape, but never expected to come close to competing with Oprah Winfrey, which regularly pulled in tens of millions of viewers per episode.

Dr. Oz is known for his popular talk show as well as his foray into politics. He was trained as a surgeon but first came into the public spotlight by appearing on The Oprah Winfrey Show, where he promoted living a healthy lifestyle. After landing his own TV show, The Dr. Oz Show, which ran from 2009 through 2022, Dr. Mehmet Oz had more airtime to fill than simple guest spots, so the topics he covered expanded.
Frequently, Dr. Oz would tackle controversial subjects and even offer questionable advice or promote products or practices that didn’t hold up to scrutiny. This resulted in criticism, including a paper published in the American Medical Association's Journal of Ethics in 2017 which labeled Dr. Oz as "a dangerous rogue unfit for the office of America’s doctor."

Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey have been friends for nearly two decades, but his latest film, Netflix’s “The Six Triple Eight,” marks the first time Perry directed the cultural icon.
The film reveals the untold story of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, the only troop of Black women and women of color to serve in Europe during World War II. The 855 women of the “Six Triple Eight,” as they were known, contributed to the war effort in a critical way — by sorting through a three-year backlog of mail (17 million pieces of it) and dramatically improving morale. Kerry Washington stars as the troop’s commander Major Charity Adams, while Winfrey portrays famed activist, educator and civil rights leader Mary McLeod Bethune, who was influential in the Roosevelt Administration and advocated for Black women in the armed forces.

Dr. Mehmet Oz, Donald Trump‘s pick to run the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (Cms), has yet to be confirmed to the Cabinet position by a Senate he failed to join after a costly 2022 campaign. But his activity on social media over the Thanksgiving holiday suggests that he may continue to serve as pitchman for dubious miracle cures even when he’s in government.

President-elect Donald Trump, continuing his pattern of appointing TV figures to top positions in his next administration, said that he has nominated Dr. Mehmet Oz to serve as administrator of Centers for Medicare and Medicaid services.
“He is an eminent physician, heart surgeon, inventor, and world-class communicator, who has been at the forefront of healthy living for decades,” Trump said in a statement.
He said that Oz would work closely with Robert Kennedy Jr., whom Trump nominated to lead the Department of Health and Human Services.
Trump said Oz “will also cut waste and fraud within our Country’s most expensive Government Agency, which is a third of our Nation’s Healthcare spend, and a quarter of our entire National Budget.”
Trump’s comment quickly raised concerns that cuts to Medicare and Medicaid may be considered in his administration.

In one of his final messages to America as voters elect their next president, Donald Trump has taken aim at Oprah Winfrey and Fox News.
Moments after casting his vote in Palm Beach, Fl, Trump appeared to voice his displeasure at Fox News carrying clips of Winfrey at a Kamala Harris campaign rally in Philadelphia.
“Oprah’s become a major divider in our country, and I think, frankly, she should be ashamed of herself,” he told reporters. “And you know who else should be ashamed? Fox, because I’ve seen Oprah on Fox about 50 times making the same statement, and I think it’s a disgrace. Everyone thinks Fox is so pro-Trump. They’re not pro-Trump at all. They’ve put Oprah on all morning long.”

Two decades ago, there were no bigger names in music than Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston.
Their individual and unique powerhouse vocals flooded the airwaves and captivated and entire generation that still loves them to this day.
On Sunday, fans tuned in for the American Music Awards 50th Anniversary Special. The night kicked off with Mariah Carey performing hits from one of her greatest albums, The Emancipation of Mimi.
Later on, Jennifer Hudson took the stage to honor 22-time Ama winner Whitney Houston with a moving performance tribute.
