Kevin Spacey pulled over for speeding hours after court appearance

Actor Kevin Spacey got pulled over for speeding at a Northern Virginia airport on Monday — hours after he was arraigned on felony sex crimes in Massachusetts, police said.

Spacey was driving on Reagan National Airport property soon before 5 p.m. when he was pulled over and given a verbal warning instead of a ticket, a spokesperson for the Metropolitan Washington Airport Authority said.

Spacey drove off “without further incident” after being stopped, the spokesperson said.

TMZ recorded video of Spacey, who was seated in the car with his lawyer, speaking with officers.

The former “House of Cards” star had just landed at the Washington, DC-area airport after his court hearing on felony charges for allegedly groping an 18-year-old busboy in Nantucket, Massachusetts, in 2016.

Spacey was charged last month with one count of felony indecent assault and battery and pleaded not guilty in paperwork prior to Monday’s hearing.

Louvre credits Beyoncé and Jay Z with record visitor total

The Louvre saw a record 10.2 million visitors walk through its doors in 2018 and says Beyoncé and Jay-Z are a big part of the reason why.

In a press release touting the number, a 25% increase from 2017, the museum credited the couple’s music video “Apes–t” with driving interest to one of the world’s premier collections of art.

“The recovery of tourism in France — especially in Paris — boosted visitor attendance in 2018, as did the flagship exhibition ‘Delacroix (1798–1863),’” museum director Jean-Luc Martinez said. “Elsewhere in the world, interest in the Louvre was bolstered by the Louvre Abu Dhabi (which recently celebrated its first anniversary), and by Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s “Apes–t” video, with its tribute to some of the museum’s greatest artworks.”

Released in June as the lead video for the couple’s collaborative album, “Everything is Love,” the sumptuous clip depicts the couple posing alongside some of the most renown pieces from the museum’s collection, including Leonardo da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa,” Rosso Fiorentino’s “Pietà” and the “Venus de Milo.”

Inspired by the video – and, one assumes, its enormous YouTube view count – the museum launched a 90-minute “Jay-Z and Beyoncé at the Louvre” tour in July.

Ellen DeGeneres called the Academy to get Kevin Hart reinstated as Oscars host

Ellen DeGeneres is facing widespread backlash on Twitter over her interview with Kevin Hart, in which she dismissed those who have criticized the comic for making homophobic comments as 'haters' and 'trolls.' 

Appearing on Friday's episode of the Ellen DeGeneres show, the veteran talk show host revealed that she has been lobbying the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to again extend an offer to Hart to host the 91st Oscars ceremony next month, as she confessed she 'really wants him to host'.

Two days after he was tapped for the high-profile gig, Hart backed out when some of his tweets deriding homosexuals from a decade ago resurfaced.

'There are so many haters out there,' DeGeneres said, referring to Hart's detractors. 'Don't pay attention to them. That's a small group of people being very, very loud. We're a huge group of people who love you and want to see you host the Oscars.'  

She later doubled down on her argument, saying that 'trolls' are going to win if Hart does not host the Academy Awards.

After the video of DeGeneres' interview with Hart went up online, Twitter exploded with messages accusing Ellen of turning her back on the LGBTQ community for the sake of her celebrity pal. 

'I can think of at least 50 openly gay up and coming comedians who deserve your awesome platform more than douche canoe Kevin and his blatant push for the Oscars gig,' actor Harry Cook tweeted.  AGREED

Meet Idris Elba’s daughter Isan, this year’s Golden Globe Ambassador

Mandatory Credit: Photo by Chelsea Lauren/REX/Shutterstock (10047339o) Isan Elba 76th Annual Golden Globe Awards, Luncheon, Los Angeles, USA - 03 Jan 2019

Isan Elba, the daughter of actor Idris Elba and makeup artist and businesswoman Kim Norgaard, will serve as the 2019 Golden Globe Ambassador at the Golden Globe Awards on Jan. 6. She appeared at a Golden Globes luncheon on Thursday, where HFPA president Meher Tatna announced that Isan Elba’s charity of choice would be the Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation, which raises awareness about mental health issues in the African-American community. Variety caught up with the 16-year-old, who turns 17 on Friday, at the luncheon to talk about stepping up to the ambassador role, her love for Gaga, and her father’s recent #MeToo comments.

How do you feel with three days to the event? 
I have no nerves. Literally, I have no nerves. Everybody’s like, “What?” I just got my dress yesterday, wasn’t nervous, wasn’t freaking out about not having a dress. I’m just really chill. I think on the day of, all of that’s going to catch up with me. Hopefully not, though.

Is there someone you’re dying to meet?
Lady Gaga. I’ve been a Gaga fan since I was a little girl. So 12-year-old me is going to scream.

What would you say to her?
She’s an inspiration. I would be like, “Gaga, I don’t want to waste your time, but thank you so much for being an inspiration for me and being yourself.” Because she’s ahead of her time. People are now embracing their weirdness that people are talking about and now it’s coming out of everybody and it’s more in the norm to do that and she did that, and I think that’s so amazing.

Was there a film or show that moved you in 2018?
“Pose.” I love anything by Ryan Murphy and it’s about the transgender community and I thought it was so interesting because you have the balls, but it’s not all about glamour. It’s about what they went through and the hate that was put toward them. It’s so upsetting and sad that that had to happen. I think it’s a great representation. It teaches you lessons, and I think that’s what our society needs at this point. Just something that progresses, not just a little sitcom.

What did you think about the comments your dad made about #MeToo? (In a recent interview with the Sunday Times, Idris Elba said the #MeToo movement is “only difficult if you’re a man with something to hide.”)
I mean, yes. That was it. That was it. I loved what he said, because that is so true. You shouldn’t be worried about it unless you have something to hide. I’m really into using your influence to talk about stuff, and I guess my dad has a lot of influence. And being a male that says that — a lot of guys look up to him, or people see him in the public eye and he said that, it was like a statement. It was one quick short statement, but it has influence and I think it was really really cool that he’s said that.

What made you want to pick mental health as your philanthropic effort?
My mom suffers from mental illness and being able to have this platform, and talk about something that I care about and that hits home, was really like, “Yes, I have to do this.” It’s something I care about and like I said, using your influence to talk about something you care about or an issue that needs to be fixed, I thought it was the perfect opportunity. And after this, I will still continue to advocate for mental health. And in the African-American community and among teenagers, because I’m both, and it’s such taboo in both communities.

Taylor Swift’s app, The Swift Life, to shut down in February

Taylor Swift is following in the footsteps of the Kardashian-Jenner sisters and shutting down her app.

The app, named The Swift Life, announced the news on its Twitter account that as of Feb. 1, it won’t be available for download. It was launched last year in partnership with Swift’s “Reputation” album release.

“Over a year ago, we launched The Swift Life alongside Taylor’s critically acclaimed, 6th studio album, ‘Reputation,'” the statement read. “It provided a creative and inclusive place for Taylor and her fans to connect with each other while expressing themselves in a uniquely interactive community.”

The statement continued, “As the ‘Reputation’ era comes to an end, our time on The Swift Life will be ending too.”

Current users will be able to utilize the virtual currency they have until Feb. 1, but in-app purchases already have been disabled.

“We would like to thank all the dedicated fans who downloaded The Swift Life, engaged with this amazing community and created gorgeous pieces of content for others to enjoy,” the statement concluded.

The Kardashian-Jenner sisters announced in December that they’d also be shutting down their paid apps in 2019.

“We’ve had an incredible experience connecting with all of you through our apps these past few years but have made the difficult decision to no longer continue updating in 2019,” read the statement. “We truly hope you’ve enjoyed this journey as much as we have, and we look forward to what’s ahead.”

Olivia Newton-John responds to rumors of her impending death

Olivia Newton-John has spoken out after claims she was on her deathbed.

After reports began circulating that the singer’s condition had taken a turn for the worse, with claims that her body was “shutting down” and that she only had “weeks” to live, Newton-John reassured her fans that she was doing just fine.

In a video posted to her social media account on Wednesday, the 70-year-old Grease actress — who announced in 2017 she’d been diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer that has spread to her back — borrowed the words of Mark Twain and explained that the recent claims were merely “greatly exaggerated” rumors.

“Happy New Year, everyone!” a bright and cheery Newton-John happily exclaimed in the clip. “I just want to say the rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated, to quote a very famous quote, and I’m doing great and I want to wish all of you the happiest, healthiest 2019 that’s possible.”

“Thank you all for the wonderful love and support for me and for my Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness Centre in Melbourne, Australia,” she added.
