Netflix acquires Adam McKay’s new comedy

Netflix and Adam McKay hit lightning in a bottle when they came together to put out "Don't Look Up" starring Leo Dicaprio and Jennifer Lawrence.

So why not try again? McKay's newest film is called Average Height, Average Build.  The film stars Robert Pattinson, Amy Adams, Robert Downey Jr., Forest Whitaker and Danielle Deadwyler. 

Pattinson will play a serial killer who enlists a lobbyist (Adams) to change laws that will allow him to get away with murder more easily. Downey Jr’s role is a retired cop who won’t give up on the murders, and the killer tries to prevent him from dogging his trail now that he’s hung up his gun.

However, according to sources close to the project, more cast members are expected to be added in the coming months as the script calls for additional characters to be filled in.

Freddie Mercury’s belonging going to auction

Queen front man Freddie Mercury died at the age of 45 back in 1991. At that time he left all his possessions with his dear friend Mary Austin.

Austin, who has kept Freddies items just as he left them in his home in the upscale Kensington neighborhood of London, said she had reached the "difficult decision" that it was time to sell it all, Sotheby's said.

There will be a LOT of high ticket items for Freddie personal memorabilia as well as his extensive art and designer treasures.

"I like to be surrounded by splendid things. I want to lead a Victorian life, surrounded by exquisite clutter." - Freddie Mercury.

The auction is at Christies in September 2023. Here are a few items coming to the block.

The crown and accompanying cloak that Mercury wore while singing "God Save the Queen" during his final tour with Queen. ESTIMATE $75,000 - $100,000.

Roz returning to Fraiser on Paramount+

Last month we learned that Paramount+ was rebooting the much beloved 'Fraiser' starring Kelsey Grammer. But with none of the original cast returning with him, it seemed destined to fail. That just got a little less likely.

Peri Gilpin who played the sassy producer Roz on the Fraiser Crane radio show has signed to join her old boss in the retooled 'Fraiser'.

Filming officially began in Los Angeles in February, with James Burrows directing the first two episodes. 

The show follows Dr Fraiser Crane as he embarks on the next chapter of his life. In the upcoming revival, Frasier returns to Boston, Massachusetts, with new challenges to face, new relationships to forge and an old dream or two to finally fulfill. Among the new cast members are Jack Cutmore-Scott, who plays Frasier's son, Freddy.

Halsey splits from baby daddy, wants full custody of child

Halsey and her boyfriend of at least 2 years have split. The singer, 28 and 40 year old Alev Aydin announced their relationship in January of 2021, while also announcing they were pregnant with their first child.

Neither Halsey nor Aydin addressed the split, but a source close to the singer said the pair are on good terms.

Court documents show that Halsey has requested full custody, but friends close to the couple say they are coparenting with no problem.

No one even knows the sons name, so we're not expecting to get many more details than what we already have. Maybe Halsey with write about it in a song.

Morgan Wallen sued for canceling concert

On Monday night a packed house at the Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in Oxford, Miss got some real bad news. Their concert was canceled because the singer lost his voice.

Country singer Morgan Wallen was set to come on stage in just minutes when the news was delivered via a loud voice and a message on a screen. And fans were FURIOUS. Like so so mad.

One such fan named Brandi Burcham filed a class action lawsuit “on behalf of herself and all other similarly situated” patrons who attended the show.

I 100% support this suit. Brandi's concern is that even though they are refunding fans for the ticket, they won't be refunded for all the other expenses incurred. Like those who drove in from out of town, baby sitters, parking costs, etc.

“Even if ticket prices are refunded, no offer has been made to reimburse concertgoers for other out-of-pocket expenses they incurred in connection with the concert cancellation, including transportation, lodging, food, merchandise sales, transaction fees and other such expenses,” the plaintiff added.

The “Last Night” crooner, 29, called off the fifth date of his One Night at a Time World Tour after opening acts Hardy, Ernest and Nate Smith had already performed, disappointing approximately 60,000 attendees, many of whom took to social media to air their grievances.

Harry Belafonte dies at 96

He was known as the King of Calypso. The sounds of his Caribean homeland of Jamaica were infused in every song. Now Harry Belafonte has died at the age of 96.

He died Tuesday of congestive heart failure at his New York home, his wife Pamela by his side, said publicist Ken Sunshine.

Born in Harlem on March 1, 1927, Belafonte's early years were spent living between there and Jamaica, where he briefly lived with one of his grandmothers.

He was a consummate activist and close personal friend of Martin Luther King jr. In Spike Lee’s 2018 film “BlacKkKlansman,” he was fittingly cast as an elder statesman schooling young activists about the country’s past.

Belafonte had been a major artist since the 1950s. He won a Tony Award in 1954 for his starring role in John Murray Anderson’s “Almanac” and five years later became the first Black performer to win an Emmy for the TV special “Tonight with Harry Belafonte.”

Here's one of his classic songs, Day-O, which regained popularity when it was used in 1988's Beetlejuice.

Don Lemon fired at CNN

It's a news man free for all out here! This morning we saw Tucker Carlson get fired from Fox and now Don Lemon is being canned at CNN.

Lemon Tweeted his feelings on the matter today and he does not seem happy.

"I was informed this morning by my agent I have been terminated by CNN. I am stunned," Lemon wrote.

Lemon continued: "After 17 years at CNN I would have thought that someone in management would have had the decency to tell me directly. At no time was I ever given any indication that I would not be able to continue to do the work I have loved at the network. It is clear that there are some larger issues at play."

Lemon ended his statement with a thank you to his colleagues.

"With that said, I want to thank my colleagues and the many teams I have worked with for an incredible run," he wrote. "They are the most talented journalists in the business, and I wish them all the best."

CNN chairman Chris Licht confirmed Lemon's departure Monday in a statement obtained by The New York Times, which says: "CNN and Don have parted ways. Don will forever be a part of the CNN family, and we thank him for his contributions over the past 17 years. We wish him well and will be cheering him on in his future endeavors."

Licht continued: "CNN This Morning has been on the air for nearly six months, and we are committed to its success."
