“Eventually, though, I felt that I needed to work with other people as well. I wanted to grow up, something I felt (rightly or wrongly) I couldn’t do while working with John. Sometimes I wonder if that was what he found so unforgivable. We were like the Darling children when they made the decision to leave Neverland. And John was Peter Pan, warning us that if we left we could never come back. And, true to his word, not only were we unable to return, but he went one step further. He did away with Neverland itself.” Molly Ringwald on why she chose to stop working with John Hughes and how it affected him.

Simon Cowell v. LeAnn Rimes — Is Society Sexist?
When the news first broke that Simon Cowell knocked up his good friend’s wife, I thought, “There has to be some reasonable explanation.” Then pictures surfaced of Cowell kissing Lauren Silverman, while her husband was presumably close by. To top it off, Cowell took these couples trips with his then fiance, Mezhgan Hussainy. And despite all this damning evidence, I was still convinced of Simon Cowell’s innocence. Then I was hit by a thunderbolt. I suddenly realized that LeAnn Rimes was not afforded this same naive insanity or the benefit of any doubt. She too had an affair with a married parent, and the public trashed her with tramp status and cast flames upon her for eternity. Sure she handled it horribly, but so has Cowell. Just days after Lauren Silverman’s divorce with Andrew Silverman became final, he’s been seen publicly parading his love, holding hands with Silverman and openly kissing her in French restaurants. So what’s the difference here, and why is Cowell getting the get-out-of-jail-free card that LeAnn can’t kill someone for? Well . . . it starts with a P and ends with and S, and it rhymes with Venus. You do the math.
Kanye West Talks Love to Kris Jenner — WATCH NOW
Softer interviews always generate more information from the subject. Sure you can ask hard-hitting questions, but an interviewer is more likely to get telling answers when the subject is relaxed. For Kanye West, that held very true during his sit-down with Kris Jenner. His typical hot-headed persona took a back-seat while he described his relationship with Kim Kadashian, whom he clearly loves. Watch it below.
Ben Affleck is Batman — My Wings Just Broke
Just when I thought it was safe to go back in the water, Ben Affleck bit a chunk out of his re-branded career. In case you missed it, he’ll star alongside Henry Cavill as the new Batman, in a Batman v. Superman showdown. The internet became instantly aghast at the revelation, with many referencing his Daredevil flop as evidence that he’s far from an action hero. If you’re asking for inside knowledge behind this decision, you need not look far. Affleck has a long-standing relationship with Warner Bros., who chose him for the role.
When I heard the news, I was both shocked and saddened. For someone who spent what seems like an eternity rebuilding his image after a series of horrible career (see Gigli, Daredevil, and Paycheck, and Jersey Girl) and personal life choices (see JLO), it astounds me that he’d accept this offer. He doesn’t need the money, and it resurrects a memory he worked hard to erase after incredible success as a director (see Town and Argo). It’s not only terrible timing, it feels as if he’s sold-out once again. Did his itch for leading-man status overwhelm his clarity? Did he get the wrong advice? Sure Christian Bale did it, and Christian Bale is a respected actor. But Christian Bale came from a relatively unknown place when he began that role, and he hadn’t had a series of flops in that genre. I wish Ben Affleck the very best. He’ll need it.

Andy Cohen v. Jillian Michaels — Feud Mystery Solved
Andy Cohen recently declared the Jillian Michaels as his “worst guest ever,” and feigned dumbfounded ignorance about the source of her after-interview rage. After combing through the show, the mystery’s been solved. Watch the clip below to see Andy replay an extremely embarrassing 2005 moment in which Kathy Griffin unnecessarily roasts the Biggest Loser host who was actually excited to appear on ‘My Life on the D List.’ Given that Cohen and Kathy are clearly friends, she obviously did not take kindly to reliving the moment. Watch below.
Kenneth Branagh in MacBeth! — WHAT?!!!
Kenneth Branagh belongs on stage, and he certainly belongs on stage when he’s acting in one of Shakespeare’s plays. The extremely talented thespian (see Hamlet) will star on Broadway alongside Alex Kingston in a production of MacBeth. Branagh has had numerous stints behind the camera (see Thor), but his true craft is that of acting. Now if only I could transport myself back to high school to use his portrayal as a cheat sheet once again (see Hamlet).
Lindsay Lohan to Oprah: “I’m an addict.”
The public might point and laugh at failure, but they also clap for a good comeback story, and if Lindsay Lohan turns this train wreck around, she’ll be welcomed alongside Robert Downey Jr. Sure she’s had a lot of second chances, but so do most addicts, because it takes time to curb the chaos. Her Oprah interview seems to be the first time she’s ever taken full responsibility for her wrongdoings and surrendered to her addiction. Watch her admit to her alcoholism below.
