General Hospital was must watch after school tv for every gen X female (and lots of the males) I knew. And the kind heart at the center of that amazing soap was Jackie Zehmans character Bobbie Spencer.
Bobbie Spencer owned and ran a brownstone apartment building that started my love affair with city living.
Zeman had been with the show for more than 45 years. Her family told ABC News she died after a short battle with cancer. She was 70.
Details about her death were not released, but Executive Producer Frank Valentini took to Twitter Wednesday night and issued the following statement:
"On behalf of our General Hospital family, I am heartbroken to announce the passing of our beloved Jackie Zeman," he wrote. "Just like her character, the legendary Bobbie Spencer, she was a bright light and true professional that brought so much positive energy with her to work."

After almost 40 years of reporting on music and world news, the iconic MTV News is shutting down.
Paramount announced on Tuesday that it's shuttering the long running show due to financial woes.
The show started in 1987 with Kurt Loder hosted "The Week in Rock". During the ’90s, MTV News also provided an alternative to traditional cable news that appealed to gen Xers.
Chris McCarthy, head of Paramount Media Networks, MTV and Showtime, said that despite the media giant’s “success” in streaming, the company continues to “feel pressure from broader economic headwinds like many of our peers.”
“As a result, we have made the very hard but necessary decision to reduce our domestic team by approximately 25%,” he continued. “Through the elimination of some units and by streamlining others, we will be able to reduce costs and create a more effective approach to our business as we move forward.”
RIP MTV News.

Chrissy Teigen is no stranger to conflict and accusations. The beauty was accused a year or so ago of being a pretty vicious bully to people on twitter.
This time people were coming at her accusing her of hiring a surrogate to carry her 4 month old daughter Esti. Teigen made short work of that claim.
The ex model posted on instagram her proof.
"Extremely realistic 'moon bump,'" Teigen, 37, sarcastically wrote over an intimate shot taken on Jan. 13 after her cesarean section.
"Obsessed with this comment," the cookbook author added about one specific troll, who posted that Teigen was "born male" and "used something called a moonbump" during her pregnancy, before bizarrely claiming that they were also a "huge fan of Chrissy by the way."
Try to dispute that.

My toxic trait is I want a sequel made for all of my favorite movies, but I don't even go see them when they're made. Because I'm pretty sure they'll suck.
Beetlejuice will be different. Jenna Ortega as the daughter of Winona Ryder is a hot take and I'm 100% there for it.
Warner Bros. has officially set a release date for Beetlejuice 2, a long-awaited sequel to the delightfully weird 1988 Tim Burton film starring Michael Keaton as a zany "bio-exorcist." The new movie will arrive in theaters Sept. 6, 2024, the studio announced Tuesday.
The original Beetlejuice starred Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis as recently deceased newlyweds whose spirits remain stuck in their country residence. When the insufferable Deetzes (Catherine O'Hara, Jeffrey Jones) and their morose teenage daughter (Ryder) move into the house, the ghostly couple summons Beetlejuice to help scare them away.

Some people don't care if their children even get to know them, lol. Robert De Niro seems to be one of them.
The legendary actor was asked by the Canadian press how he handles being a dad of six and he had a little surprise for them.
'I just had a baby,' he said.
The 79-year-old Oscar-winning actor did not reveal the identity of his baby's mother, but he was last linked to martial arts instructor Tiffany Chen. They were photographed holding hands in July 2022 and in March of this year she appeared pregnant when leaving Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, California.
Robert has six kids with various women. They are Drena De Niro, Raphael De Niro, Julian Henry De Niro, Elliot De Niro, Aaron Kendrick De Niro, Helen Grace De Niro

Back in the 80's there was few people as hot as Michael J Fox. He had a hit show (Family Ties) and hit movies like Back to the Future and Teen Wolf. But the star is pressed to remember dating Susanna Hoffs, lead singer of the band The Bangles.
Fox was talking to the Sunday Times to promote a documentary of his on Apple TV. The film revolves around his battle with Parkinson’s disease, which affects muscle movements as well as memory.
“When I look at that period in the [documentary] it just seems crazy,” Fox said. “Look at all the girls I dated. Some of them I can’t even remember.”
“I mean, I dated Susanna Hoffs from the Bangles, and I can’t even remember it,” he continued. “But that’s just an example. Stuff like that happened all the time.”
Fox, of course, married his former “Family Ties” co-star Tracy Pollan in 1988.
Lovers aren't the only memories he's lost.
“I sat next to Princess Diana during the world premiere of ‘Back to the Future’ and I had to pee. And that’s all I remember,” said Fox.
“I had just been told a whole list of things that I could and couldn’t do, like not speaking unless spoken to, and not standing unless she stands. And so I was thinking, ‘What kind of math do I have to do to go to the bathroom?'”

While on Logan Pauls podcast, Impaulsive, Kevin Hart gave an update on the health of his good friend Jamie Foxx.
Foxx, if you recall, suffered a "medical issue" in April on the set of a movie and was in this hospital for 2 weeks.
"The dope thing is that he's getting better in his situation, and everybody's prayers, everybody's love, energy, all that stuff is seen and felt," Hart said.
"In this case, you just want the guy to get out of the situation and get back home," Hart said.
Details around Foxx's hospitalization have been scarce and out of respect for Foxx's privacy, Hart wouldn't get specific. He admitted that he doesn't know "the exact details" but to his knowledge, "there's a lot of progression and a world of better."
"I've heard things," Hart said. "I'm very fortunate to have the relationship with Jamie, that I can check on things," adding, "They're being tight [with information] for reasons — just about where he is — because Jamie's always been a private person."

It should come as no surprise to many that Drew Barrymore has a big heart and stands with people demanding respect. That's why it makes sense that she's standing with the Writers Guild during their strike.
Barrymore announced she will be stepping down as the host of the MTV Movie & TV Awards that is scheduled to air on Sunday.
“I have listened to the writers, and in order to truly respect them, I will pivot from hosting the MTV Movie & TV Awards live in solidarity with the strike,” Barrymore said on Thursday in a statement shared with CNN.
“Everything we celebrate and honor about movies and television is born out of their creation. And until a solution is reached, I am choosing to wait but I’ll be watching from home and hope you will join me,” her statement continued.
Barrymore added that she “can’t wait to be a part of this next year, when I can truly celebrate everything that MTV has created, which is a show that allows fans to choose who the awards go to and is truly inclusive.”
A strike began on Tuesday after the WGA and the major Hollywood studios represented by the Alliance of Motion Picture Television Producers failed to reach an agreement on terms of a new contract Monday night.
