There have been nothing but strange rumors and confusion surrounding Richar Simmons for a decade or more. Concerns his housekeeper was holding him hostage. That he was having a sex change. That he was dying. None turned out to be true.
But this weekend he caused a stir on Facebook when he posted a message about death and living life to the fullest earlier in the day.
“Sorry many of you have gotten upset about my message today. Even the press has gotten in touch with me. I am not dying,” he wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter)
“It was a message about saying how we should embrace every day that we have. Sorry for this confusion,” he added before signing off the post with, “Love, Richard.”
“We are just happy to hear from you,” one fan commented, while another added, “I understood your message. Thank you.”
I concur.

An all star cast of Hollywood's best and funniest are coming together with Dr Suess to make a new theatrical version of The Cat in the Hat!

If off the top of your head you don't know who Cory Gamble is, you're forgiven. He's the long-time boyfriend of Kris Jenner Kardashian and it looks like he's the Sussex's latest shot at getting into the world of branding.
So Harry was seen hitting the slopes of Aspen, America's swankiest ski resort in Colorado, in the company of business executive Corey Gamble, 43.
A source said that Harry had been hitting the slopes with Gamble, as well as Bumble dating app billionaire Whitney Wolfe, 34, and her husband Michael Herd, whom she met on a previous skiing trip.
All in an effort to get his wifes brand off the ground.
However, there has been no sign of Meghan on the pistes: she has been too busy relaunching herself as an online guru with cookery and lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard.
The Duchess is also not thought to share the Duke's love of downhill winter sports - but was pictured taking a trip with friends at the Powder Mountain resort near Salt Lake City, Utah at the end of February.

Eric Carmen was a singer songwriter from the 70's and 80's that wrote some really iconic songs. I KNOW you've heard "All By Myself". It's at the bottom of the page if you need a refresher.
Eric died at the age of 74, according to a posting from his wife Amy.
“It is with tremendous sadness that we share the heartbreaking news of the passing of Eric Carmen,” she wrote. “Our sweet, loving and talented Eric passed away in his sleep, over the weekend. It brought him great joy to know, that for decades, his music touched so many and will be his lasting legacy. Please respect the family’s privacy as we mourn our enormous loss. ‘Love Is All That Matters… Faithful and Forever.’”

Artists in continuing greater numbers are dropping out of the SXSW festival in Austin Texas. The reason? US Military is one of the festival's biggest event sponsors and that's fucked up.
At first it was just a singer songwriter who works under the name "Squirrel Flower" (real name Ella Williams) who dropped out stating the US's support of Israels attack on Palestine is something they couldn't rectify supporting and if the US militaries was a supporter of her show she would be a sell out.
“A music festival should not include war profiteers. I refuse to be complicit in this and withdraw my art and labor in protest,” Williams said in an Instagram post.
Since then several other bands and speakers have dropped out.
Probably none you know, but honestly, that makes a larger statement to me. They need this gig more than the big names that wont back out.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott responded to the protest in a social media post Tuesday, saying, “Bye. Don’t come back.”
“We are proud of the U.S. military in Texas. If you don’t like it, don’t come here,” Abbott said on X.
“We fully respect the decision these artists made to exercise their right to free speech,” one of the festival’s posts reads. SXSW organizers went on to defend their decision to accept the sponsors.
“The defense industry has historically been a proving ground for many of the systems we rely on today. These institutions are often leaders in emerging technologies, and we believe it’s better to understand how their approach will impact our lives. The Army’s sponsorship is part of our commitment to bring forward ideas that shape our world,”the string of SXSW posts reads.
SXSW drew more than 340,000 attendees last year, organizers have said, and generally hosts a sprawling lineup of conferences, panels, music showcases, film screenings and exhibitions. Its events this year have included panels with actress Selena Gomez; Meghan, Duchess of Sussex; and investor Mark Cuban.
The festival continues to “support human rights for all,” SXSW’s posts read.

You may have noticed that when Emma Stone took the stage to receive her best actress oscar there was a moment of confusion. Not just because Emma's dress had torn, but because Michelle, the presenter, gave the award to Jennifer Lawrence and not Emma. There's a reason for that.
Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Stone have been best friends for years and Michelle thought having her best friend hand her the award would be more special than if she had.
Emma took to instagram to explain:
"Congratulations Emma!! I confused you, but I wanted to share that glorious moment of handing over Oscar to you together with your best friend Jennifer!! She reminded me of my Bae Jamie Lee Curtis ??? always there for each other!! ???," Yeoh wrote in her post.
The gesture made for one of many magical moments that night and I just love those two together as besties.

Travis Kelce went from weaping (adorably) at his brother Jasons retirement conference to a jet to Singapore to see his baby Taylor play to thousands.
In video footage posted on X taken from the stands, the tight end smiled and swayed to “Look What You Made Me Do” alongside friends outside a suite.
Later in the concert, Kelce was seen dancing alongside the stage during "Karma," and smiled appreciatively when Swift sang the lyric she changed for him: "Karma is the guy on the Chiefs, coming straight home to me."
Kelce's friend Harry Clark also shared a Boomerang video of himself wearing an Eras Tour wristband on his Instagram Story and posted a video of Swift performing on stage with the caption, "GO TAY TAY."

By now everyone knows that Ellen Degeneres and wife Portia DeRossi love buying and selling homes. They take already beautiful properties and turn them into masterpieces that sell for millions. This time they've taken far less than asking.
The property sits on 8 acres of stunning tree filled land with a 6,500 square foot home known as Pompeiian Court and a beautiful pool. There aren't many photos of the property, but the ones we have are gorgeous.
Billionaire Robert Friedland got the place for $32m. A far cry from the $46m they were asking.
Sold: $32,000,000 6,500 sq ft, 8.8 acres, pool

Football news isn't the sort of thing we get into here, but when its the brother of the future Mr Taylor Swift, we report.
Travis was on hand for his brother Jasons speach and if you know these two brothers, there were a lot of tears. In fact Jason burst into tears before even beginning.
'I won't forget falling short to the Chiefs and the conflicting feeling of the heartbreak I had selfishly for myself and my teammates and, at the same time, the amount of pride I had in my brother. He climbed the mountain top once again.
Travis emotionally watched his brother's speech.
Kelce announced the decision with his brother Travis, wife Kylie and parents Ed and Donna in attendance at the Eagles' team facility. Footage showed Travis, who wore sunglasses throughout, crying as he watched on.

If you didn't know, there have been a bunch of rumors circling the internet about Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton.
Back in January Kate went in for an abdominal procedure that was to keep her out of action for two weeks and then on hard rest back at home. This would keep her off any official duties till Easter.
But the internet noticed that no one had seen her at all in months. Not going into the hospital or coming out. Then Prince William backed out of delivering a reading at the funeral of his godfather and people's speculations went wild about his possibly needing to be by her side. Or worse, a rocky marriage was falling apart and the two were living separately.
Well now the Palace is addressing those rumors. Something it almost never does.
A spokesperson for Princess Kate said, "We were very clear from the outset that the Princess of Wales was out until after Easter and Kensington Palace would only be providing updates when something was significant."
The spokesperson reiterated the princess is "doing well."
Of course, this isn't likely to ease anyone's mind as people are as trusting of the royal family as they are of the US government. Like not.
I guess only time will tell.
