Tom Selleck was spotted on a solo outing to McDonald's the day before the actor celebrated his milestone 80th birthday.

The "Magnum P.I." star was photographed in his car while picking up fast food at a drive-thru in Thousand Oaks, California on Tuesday. 

On Wednesday night, Selleck was seen holding hands with his wife Jillie Mack after enjoying a birthday dinner with family and friends at the upscale Italian eatery Tuscany il Ristorante in Thousand Oaks.

The couple, who have been married since 1987, were joined by their daughter Hannah, 36, for the celebration. 

TOM SELLECK RISKS LOSING CALIFORNIA RANCH WITH CANCELATION OF 'BLUE BLOODS'

Selleck was casually clad in a dark red button-down shirt under a light brown blazer with a tan jacket, blue jeans and olive green sneakers. 

Jillie, 67, wore a black and beige striped maxi-dress with a light brown leather jacket, a black cross-body bag and black ankle boots.

Selleck carried a cigar box while Jillie held a gift bag as they strolled hand in hand down the street.

In a December interview with Parade, Selleck said that he had given little thought as to how he planned to celebrate turning 80.

"I’m trying not to count," he said. "I stopped celebrating birthdays a while back. I intend to keep working. I’ll probably have dinner with maybe my brother and my sister and Jillie, just go out to dinner, kind of be quiet and not make a big deal of it."

While speaking with Parade, Selleck said he was looking toward the future after his hit show "Blue Bloods" came to an end.

The Emmy Award winner played Commissioner Frank Reagan in the crime drama for 14 seasons from 2010 to 2024.

Selleck explained that he is not planning to retire anytime soon and expressed his hopes to make a return to the Western genre in a project led by "Yellowstone" creator Taylor Sheridan.

"A good Western’s always on my list," he said.  "I miss that; I want to sit on a horse again."

Selleck, who lives with Jillie on a 63-acre ranch in Ventura, California, previously starred in seven Westerns, including "The Sacketts," "Concrete Cowboys," "The Shadow Riders," "Quigley Down Under," "Last Stand at Saber River," "Crossfire Trail" and "Monte Walsh."

While Selleck quipped that offers for new acting roles aren't "pouring in," he added that "some people are thinking of me."

"I don’t know where my next job will take me," he said. "People ask, ‘What do you want to do next?’ I’m not sure. I don’t want to do Frank Reagan II."

Selleck later shared his thoughts on starring in a potential "Blue Bloods" spin-off, saying "I’m open to suggestions because I love Frank Reagan, but nobody’s really asked."

"I don’t see him retiring and going off somewhere," the actor added. "If he goes off to a small town, I’d rather do more ‘Jesse Stone’ movies."

Selleck played police chief Jesse Stone in nine TV movies from 2005 to 2015. The films were based on Robert B. Parker's "Jesse Stone" novel series.

During his interview with Parade, Selleck told the outlet that he wasn't aware of plans for another "Jesse Stone" movie but didn't rule out reprising the role in the future.

"It would be an interesting challenge because Jesse is older now," he said. "There’ve been quite a few years between shows. That doesn’t mean he isn’t a viable character. Everywhere I go, one of the things I get asked is, "When can I see another 'Jesse Stone'?"

At the time, Selleck admitted that coming to terms with the end of "Blue Bloods," which aired its final episode on Dec. 13, had been difficult. 

"The hardest part for me is we had the ‘Blue Bloods’ family and we had the actors’ family," he said. "They’re all my pals. I miss them. It’s going to take a lot of getting used to."

Justin Baldoni's team has launched a new website amid his ongoing legal battle with "It Ends With Us" co-star Blake Lively.

The website, thelawsuitinfo.com, which was published Saturday, featured a landing page with links to two PDF files, including a copy of a newly amended complaint that the 41-year-old actor filed against the 37-year-old actress and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, and another document with a 168-page "timeline of relevant events" that showcased new emails and texts related to the case. 

Both documents were filed Friday in New York federal court ahead of the case's first hearing, which is scheduled for Monday.

Lively has claimed she was sexually harassed on the set of "It Ends With Us" and filed a lawsuit against Baldoni, his Wayfarer studio and former PR representatives in December. The same day Lively filed her suit, Baldoni filed a $250 million suit against The New York Times for a December article about Lively's lawsuit and the alleged smear campaign Baldoni attempted to run against his co-star.

Weeks later, Baldoni then named Lively and Reynolds in a separate $400 million defamation lawsuit in which he accused the Hollywood power couple of attempting to hijack "It Ends With Us" and create their own narrative. 

Baldoni's amended complaint alleged Lively had been working with The New York Times weeks before the article was published in December. 

The documents stated that metadata embedded within The New York Times article indicated the outlet "had already begun building its defamatory Article no later than October 31, 2024." 

The lawsuit claimed that "careful observers reported that viewing the HTML source code for the Article revealed references to a 'message-embed-generator' that referred [to a] date of ‘2024-10-31.’"

According to the documents, The New York Times created a tool to display Lively's texts in the article Oct. 31, which Baldoni's legal team suggested was evidence the story was first generated on or before that date.

"It may seem unsurprising and even respectable that a news organization should work for weeks or months before publishing a purported investigative report," the documents say. 

"But the significance of the timing of these elements of the defamatory Article is that they strip away the legal shields that Lively, the Times, and the other Lively Parties were likely relying on to protect their malicious acts of defamation, such as the litigation privilege and the fair reporting privilege."

In a statement to Fox News Digital, Baldoni's lawyer, Bryan Freedman, addressed the amended complaint. 

"The decision to amend our lawsuit was a logical next step due to the overwhelming amount of new proof that has come to light," Freedman said.

"This fresh evidence corroborates what we knew all along, that due to a blind pursuit of power, Ms. Lively and her entire team colluded for months to destroy reputations through a complex web of lies, false accusations and the manipulation of illicitly received communications.

"The ongoing public interest in this case online has ironically shed light on the undeniable facts pertaining to The New York Times and how heavily Ms. Lively and her representatives were not only deeply involved in the attempted takedown and smear campaign of Mr. Baldoni, Wayfarer Studios and their teams but that they themselves initiated it."

In a statement to Fox News Digital, The New York Times Company's representative, Danielle Rhoades Ha, pushed back against claims made in the amended lawsuit.

"The Baldoni/Wayfarer legal filings are rife with inaccuracies about The New York Times, including, for example, the bogus claim that The Times had early access to Ms. Lively's state civil rights complaint," she said.

"Mr. Baldoni's lawyers base their erroneous claim on postings by amateur internet sleuths, who, not surprisingly, are wrong. The sleuths have noted that a version of the Lively state complaint published by The Times carries the date 'December 10' even though the complaint wasn't filed until more than a week later. The problem: that date is generated by Google software and is unrelated to the date when The Times received it and posted it."

Representatives for Lively did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

When I think of the farmers I grew up around, I think of resilience and stewardship. These are people who rise before the sun, work tirelessly to feed not only their families but all of us and endure hardships most of us cannot imagine. Yet the headlines about America’s farming recession remind us of just how much they shoulder — and how little recognition they often receive. 

As an actor, recognition finds you whether you want it or not. While the work is meaningful, it can pale compared to the daily hours, grit and commitment farming families dedicate daily. There is no craft services table waiting for them — they are feeding everyone else.  

Farming is not just a job — it is a calling. Theirs is often an unnoticed sacrifice, from the long hours and rising costs to the unpredictable weather and policy challenges. A single bag of corn seed now costs $230, nearly double the price of a few years ago. Combine that with declining crop prices, and farmers must navigate a system stacked against them. Yet they persevere because their work feeds millions and sustains communities. 

KELSEY GRAMMER SAYS CONSERVATIVE MOVEMENT IS LOOKING ‘MORE ATTRACTIVE’ TO HOLLYWOOD

My great-grandfather, Gulbrand Nelson, left Norway to settle in Wisconsin before moving to South Dakota, where our family farm still stands today. That upbringing instilled in me the importance of values, tradition and faith — ideals I see fading as time passes. If we let them fade long enough, they will vanish. 

I’ve been blessed in my career with the ability to do things I believe in. At this stage in my life, it has become all the more important to work on projects that matter to me and the legacy I will leave to my children, grandchildren and those who have entrusted me with their viewing time over the years.  

My family's heritage inspired me to take on one such project called "Green and Gold," a film that reflects the spirit of farming families and their struggles today. The project embodies what I value most: resilience, stewardship, and legacy. It is a tribute to the farmers who quietly hold our country together. 

Growing up near farming communities, I saw firsthand what that perseverance looks like: long days in the fields, families working through mechanical failures or harsh weather, and a deep-rooted pride in their labor. Those experiences shaped my values and the stories I want to tell. 

When I was offered the opportunity to be part of "Green and Gold," I knew it was more than a role — it was a chance to honor the legacy of farming families. The film highlights their resilience and quiet strength, reminding us of their vital contributions to our country. 

Farmers are America's backbone. Their stewardship of the land reflects faith, responsibility and commitment to something greater than themselves. Yet, they are often left to face economic and policy challenges alone. This farming recession is not just a farming issue but a national one. Rural communities are struggling, and the ripple effects will touch us all. We must do more than recognize farmers in times of crisis. We must advocate for policies that support them, invest in rural infrastructure, and champion their contributions to our everyday lives.

Beyond the economic struggles, farming takes an emotional toll. In conversations with farmers, while preparing for "Green and Gold," I heard pride in their work and concern about the future. Who will carry on their legacy? Will their children want to inherit the struggles that come with it? These are not just questions — they are the realities shaping rural America today. 

We owe so much to our farmers. They feed us, clothe us and sustain our economy. Their work is woven into the fabric of our history, yet their voices are often absent from national conversations. By telling their stories — on screen and off — we can honor their contributions and address their challenges. 

Take a moment to reflect on the farmers behind the meals you eat and the clothes you wear. Support your local farmers’ markets, advocate for policies that uplift them, and express gratitude for their tireless work. 

I have walked down many red carpets in my career, surrounded by accolades and recognition. Yet, may these words, in even the smallest way, serve as an amber wave of gratitude to honor farming families across our great land. 

Thank you, farmers. 

Amy Schumer once hopped on board the Ozempic trend, but the side effects were so intense she had to stop. 

During a recent appearance on "The Howard Stern Show," the comedian, 43, opened up about her scary experience trying the medication for weight-loss purposes.

"I have this gene - GDF15 - which makes you extremely prone to nausea which is why I was so sick during my pregnancy. So, I tried Ozempic almost three years ago and I was like bedridden, I was vomiting and then you have no energy but other people take it and they're all good," she explained.

OPRAH WINFREY, SHARON OSBOURNE, ROSIE O'DONNELL ADMIT USING WEIGHT LOSS MEDICATION: 'DONE WITH SHAMING'

"I lost 30 pounds so quick," said Schumer, who is mom to 4-year-old son, Gene, whom she shares with husband, Chris Fischer. "I looked great and I couldn't lift my head off the pillow, so what's the point?"

Ozempic, which is a semaglutide injection, was originally approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes, but the medication has increasingly been prescribed off label for weight loss, along with several other similar medications. 

TIM MCGRAW, FAITH HILL'S DAUGHTER GRACIE BLASTS TROLL ACCUSING HER OF USING OZEMPIC TO LOSE WEIGHT

The actress has been open about her Ozempic-use before and once blasted celebrities for saying they lost weight by simply eating "smaller portions" and "lying" about using the injectable drug. 

"Like, shut the f--- up!" she said during an appearance on "Watch What Happens Live!" in 2023. "You are on Ozempic or one of those things or you got work done. Just stop."

"Like, a year ago, I tried it," she said. "It's like, you know, you try it.  And I was one of those people that felt so sick and couldn’t play with my son. I was so skinny, and he’s throwing a ball at me and [I couldn’t]."

"And you're like, ‘OK, this isn’t livable for me,'" she added. 

Schumer is not the only celebrity who has opened up about her experience using the drug. 

During a recent episode of his "This Life of Mine" podcast, James Corden explained why it "didn't really work" for him.

"I tried Ozempic, and it won’t be surprising to you when you look at me now, that it didn’t really work," Corden told guest Richard Osman. "I tried it for a bit, and then what I realized was I was like, ‘Oh no, nothing about my eating has anything to do with being hungry.’ All this does is make you feel not hungry. But I am very rarely eating [because of hunger]."

"You are looking at someone who’s eaten a king size, and when I say king size [Cadbury] Dairy Milk — one you give someone for Christmas — in a carwash," the comedian added. "None of that was like, ‘Oh, I’m so hungry’. It is not that, it’s something else."

Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni controversies prior to working on "It Ends With Us" have been called into question now, with the actors engaged in multimillion dollar lawsuits against each other. 

Lively filed a sexual harassment suit in December against Justin Baldoni, his Wayfarer studio and former PR reps. The same day Lively filed her suit, Baldoni filed a $250 million suit against the New York Times for a December article about the alleged smear campaign Baldoni attempted to run against his co-star.

Weeks later, Baldoni then named Lively and Reynolds in a separate $400 million defamation lawsuit in which he accused the Hollywood power couple of attempting to hijack "It Ends With Us" and create their own narrative.

TAYLOR SWIFT, BLAKE LIVELY FRIENDSHIP STRONG DESPITE CLAIM JUSTIN BALDONI LAWSUIT TEARING THEM APART: INSIDER

Baldoni, 41, apologized to Lively in a six-minute message seemingly sent after the pair met to discuss a now-infamous rooftop scene from the movie in which he claimed in legal documents that he felt pressured by Lively's husband, Ryan Reynolds, and her best friend, Taylor Swift, to use Lively's rewritten scene for the film.

Lively rose to fame in the 2000s thanks in part to "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" and her starring role on "Gossip Girl," where she portrayed Upper East Side "it girl" Serena Van Der Woodsen.

The show, which premiered in 2007 and ran for five years on The CW network, featured an all-star cast of up-and-coming actors, including, Penn Badgley, Chace Crawford, Leighton Meester and Ed Westwick.

On camera, Lively and Meester were sworn frenemies, and off-camera appeared to be no different for the actors, too. Lively and Meester reportedly "avoid each other like the plague" on set, which left their castmates to "choose sides," according to a New York Magazine piece published in 2008.

Executive producer Joshua Safran admitted that Lively and Meester were business as usual on set without unnecessary pleasantries.

"Blake and Leighton were not friends," Safran told Vanity Fair during the "Gossip Girl" 10-year anniversary. "They were friendly, but they were not friends like Serena and Blair. Yet the second they’d be on set together, it’s as if they were."

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds said "I do" on Sept. 9, 2012, in South Carolina at Boone Hall Plantation. The location in Mount Pleasant had nine slave cabins and was referred to as "slave street."

JUSTIN BALDONI CLAIMS UNEDITED ‘IT ENDS WITH US’ FOOTAGE REFUTES BLAKE LIVELY'S SEXUAL HARASSMENT ACCUSATIONS

Nearly eight years after their wedding, the couple shared regret for hosting the nuptials on a plantation.

"We're ashamed that in the past we've allowed ourselves to be uninformed about how deeply rooted systemic racism is," they wrote on Instagram at the time, accompanied by a $20,000 donation to the NAACP. 

"It's something we'll always be deeply and unreservedly sorry for," Reynolds told "Fast Company" in 2020. "It's impossible to reconcile. What we saw at the time was a wedding venue on Pinterest. What we saw after was a place built upon devastating tragedy."

Fans criticized Lively for seemingly using the "It Ends With Us" press tour to market her own personal endeavors. 

While the film includes challenging subjects of domestic violence and emotional abuse, Lively launched her own haircare line, Blake Brown Beauty, on Aug. 4, the week "It Ends With Us" was set to premiere theatrically.

Additionally, another business opportunity was blooming for Lively, and she released her Betty Blooms floral arrangements collection one day before the movie was released in US theaters.

Justin Baldoni previously admitted he was introduced to pornography at a young age and formed an "unhealthy relationship" with adult content.

"I was introduced to porn when I was 10 years old. Long before I ever, you know, could have an erection or even knew how I felt about anything," he told Sarah Grynberg on her "A Life of Greatness" podcast. "We’ve sexualized this thing, so of course it becomes fascinating and interesting, and you’re like, ‘Oh my God, boobs.’ And then, you know, hormones start raging."

Baldoni admitted he found comfort in porn when he was alone "or when I felt abandoned, or when I felt hurt or something like that, because it was a dopamine rush. I didn’t know that then. At an early age, I trained my brain to deal with pain with the dopamine hit."

While alcohol or drugs were never of interest to him, porn was something he could use in an "unhealthy" way.

"And I found myself, over the course of my life, going back to looking at images and videos of naked women when I was feeling necessarily bad about myself," he said. "And I knew that it was an issue for me when I would tell myself that I don’t want to do that."

Baldoni's "It Ends With Us" lawyer, Bryan Freedman, previously represented Travis Flores, who accused Baldoni of stealing his movie idea for Baldoni's directorial debut, "Five Feet Apart," which starred Cole Sprouse and Haley Lu Richardson.

Flores accused Baldoni of reading his script, which was inspired by his own struggles living with cystic fibrosis and centered around two teens with the genetic disease. Soon after, Flores allegedly discovered that Baldoni was working on a similar story through his Wayfarer production banner.

Baldoni never publicly spoke out about Flores' accusations. Freedman filed to dismiss the case in 2022, and the case was settled soon after, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The children's book author died in 2024.

A documentary about bridging the political divide in one of the most hotly contested battleground counties in the United States debuted at the Sundance Film Festival this week, leading some to conclude that the historically liberal festival is moving toward the center. 

"One of the things that is fascinating about ‘Bucks County, USA’ being chosen as an official selection at Sundance is it appears, in the era of Trump being re-elected, the well-known left-leaning Sundance Film Festival is moving to the middle," Paul Martino said. "There is a new openness to dialogue," 

Martino, the founder of Bullpen Capital, told Fox News Digital about the documentary series "Bucks County, USA" being screened at Sundance, a Utah festival known for screening films promoting liberal causes and being a place for anti-Trump demonstrations.

KELSEY GRAMMER SAYS CONSERVATIVE MOVEMENT IS LOOKING ‘MORE ATTRACTIVE’ TO HOLLYWOOD

Martino, who is featured in the film, told Fox News Digital that the five-part docuseries is "all about the political divisions that happen in the United States focused on where I live, Bucks County, USA."

"It is about all of the post-COVID policies and all of the things that happened at the school board level once a lot of the parents' rights movement started, and the film dives into a lot of detail about the political division that happened, and it focuses, ironically, on the friendship of my daughter and her best friend, who is what I would describe as my political rival's daughter," Martino explained. 

Martino, a conservative, told Fox News Digital walking around Sundance was a "fascinating" experience and that he encountered many people who seemed to be open to the movie's message of listening to the other side.

"Obviously, it is a rather left-leaning crowd in general. But even the people behind Sundance, the people who pick the films this year, said that they felt this film, ‘Bucks County, USA,’ was very important because it was in a Trump re-elected era," Martino said. 

"Understanding and speaking to the other side and understanding who the other side is is important.

MEL GIBSON DOESN’T ‘BLAME’ CELEBRITIES FLEEING HOLLYWOOD BUT VOWS TO ‘FIX’ AS TRUMP’S SPECIAL AMBASSADOR

"One of the amazing stories told by one of the filmmakers at Sundance was there's a guy sitting next to me in a MAGA hat who I would have never talked to on the plane had I not made this movie and realized he had a lot to say to me. And the fact that this film affected even the filmmakers, I think, is a really interesting and important lesson for the rest of the country."

While many people at Sundance were receptive to the film, Martino told Fox News Digital he did encounter some opposition from people at a question-and-answer session after the screening. 

"I would say one of the only disappointments of the experience was I felt that some people in the crowd, you know, it's an honor to be in the Q&A at the end of the series and, look, we had everybody up there. We had people who really don't like each other, who disagree vehemently, and I think it was lost on the audience that all of us were standing there," Martino said. 

"The fact that we all agreed to be part of this, the fact that we were all there and I got asked a question or two that were directed in my direction that I felt were a little bit inflammatory and I kind of chuckled to myself thinking, 'Did you just watch the movie? And did you just see the fact that we're all here? Maybe you missed a little something there.'"

Blake Lively’s brother-in-law this week "sincerely apologized" if he has said something that's "unkind" as the "It Ends With Us" actress continues her legal back and forth with former co-star Justin Baldoni. 

"Anytime I’ve said anything unkind about someone I’ve regretted it," Bart Johnson, a "Landman" actor, who is married to Robyn Lively, Blake’s older half-sister, wrote on X on Tuesday. "Fortunately that’s almost never and definitely not when I’m at my best."

He continued, "Regardless if it’s true or not, if it’s my opinion, even if I’m trying to speak truth or stand up for someone, it’s never good. Even in times where it might ‘feel’ justified and doing the right thing, it makes no difference. There’s a better way."

Johnson added that making cheap remarks is "below the standard I have for myself and I regret it. I do sincerely apologize to anyone I’ve hurt or let down by saying something that sounds mean. I’ll do better."

BLAKE LIVELY ACCUSES JUSTIN BALDONI'S LAWYER OF ATTEMPTING TO ‘TORPEDO’ ACTRESS' CAREER ‘FOR GOOD’

He said that any of his followers would be "hard pressed" to find more than one time when he’s criticized someone on social media. 

"You can easily find a million times I’ve uplifted, support, encourage and uplifted my family, friends, followers & strangers," he wrote. "That’s what I’m committed to and where I find my happiness. We all have flaws and I’m definitely a work in progress and doing my best to grow and be better. Sending ALL my love to ALL of you." 

Johnson didn’t give any specifics in the lengthy post, but it comes a month after he appeared to call Baldoni a "fraud" in a since-deleted post, according to USA Today.

"He’s a fraud. He puts on the 'costume' of a hero, man bun and all. Used all of the trendy catchphrases & buzz words for his podcasts. None of it’s genuine," Johnson reportedly wrote on X in late December. "It’s all theater. And everyone fell for it. For years." 

Baldoni hosts the "Man Enough" podcast, which "explores what it means to be a man today and how rigid gender roles have affected all people," according to the website. "The show creates a safe environment for a range of perspectives to meet and stay at the table, exploring how the messages of masculinity show up in relationships, body image, privilege, fatherhood, sex, success, mental health and so much more. Instead of polarizing and demonizing men and masculinity, it invites all humans to participate and thrive in the world."

As a mother of three, Jennifer Love Hewitt is looking back at her teenage stardom in Hollywood with a fresh perspective. 

The 45-year-old told Mayim Bialik on "Mayim Bialik’s Breakdown" podcast Tuesday that after she made "I Know What You Did Last Summer" in 1997, everyone became obsessed with her breasts. 

"When ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’ came out, everybody said, ‘Oh, I know what your breasts did last summer,’ and that was like the joke," she said. "And, again, everybody would laugh, so I would laugh. It was supposed to be funny, I guess, right? Like it didn’t register with me that this is a grown man talking to me about my breasts on national television."

Hewitt added that she doesn’t blame interviewers for asking her questions about her breasts or making jokes.

"It was a culture that was fully accepted. They were allowed to believe that that was appropriate, and I answered the questions, laughed right along with them."

She said she didn’t take in the sexualization part of it at the time, "but in hindsight, it was really strange, I think, to become a sex symbol sort of like before I I even knew what that was. Like I didn’t know what being sexy meant." 

She said when she was in her 30s, she began to reevaluate her teen years in Hollywood. 

"There were grown men talking to me at 16 about my breasts openly on a talk show, and people were laughing about it. It was a culture that was fully accepted, but when you sit, and you look at where we are now versus then, it is really mind-blowing," she said.

She said fans would walk up to her and say, "I took your magazine with me on a trip last week," and she’d feel she had to laugh with them about it, referring to her Maxim cover. "But I didn’t know what that meant, you know. It’s kind of gross."

"So, I think later it sort of hit me more, the kind of things that I probably went through somewhere. But, at the time, it felt very innocent and exciting and fun," she reflected. 

She said her mother kept her grounded at the height of her fame and protected her from the party scene in Hollywood.

"I think at the time it went so fast that I was like, ‘Woah, OK, I guess this means I get to stick around for a minute and do more jobs and, like, OK, this is fine.’ I remember thinking it was really cool that, like, girls looked up to me, and I took that really seriously," she told Bialik. 

"That was the part that I, like, took away from it all at the time. And I felt a real responsibility to carry that, carrying myself in a way that felt like I was earning the right to be somebody’s, like, role model."

"And it became this thing," she said. "I was so mad that I had done my first movie and I had worked so hard trying to be, like, good in a horror movie, and I really wanted people to walk away from the movie going, ‘That’s a really good actress.’ 

"And, instead, every headline, and I’m not even joking, for 10 or 12 years after that, before they ever mentioned anything about talent or if I had played a part of changed myself for a part or – it was always about my breasts, always first.

"That felt … it was just like, ‘Come on, I’m working so hard. I’m growing. I’m trying so hard, like crying from my heart week after week for you, and the only thing that you see is a movie poster with boobs on it. That was heartbreaking for me."

Tom Green has never been a fan of the glitz and glam of Hollywood. 

In a new interview with The New York Times, the comedian and actor, 53, opened up about his decision to move back home to his native country of Canada and explained why he enjoys the simpler things in life. 

"I’m not really a Hollywood guy," Green, who left Los Angeles in 2021, said. "I started to feel like I wasn’t being true to my authentic self."

"People are probably going to be surprised that I’m not, like, completely crazy," Green said. "There’s a sort of a wholesome heartwarming thing to this — that I have a close relationship with my family, that I love animals, that I enjoy doing a lot of things that a great many people in the world enjoy doing, like getting out into the woods." 

While Green, who lives on a farm, enjoys the quiet life, he's staying busy with an upcoming U.S. tour that combines stand-up comedy and music from his new country album, "Home to the Country."

Green isn't the only star to ditch Hollywood lately. 

Daniel Stern, best known for playing one of the Wet Bandits, Marv, in the classic 1990 holiday film "Home Alone," spends most of his time raising cattle and creating sculptures on his farm in Ventura, California.

"Hello, as you will come to discover, I live on a farm, and we grow tangerines here," Stern said in a TikTok video that has since gained a lot of attention. 

"I juice them up and then freeze them and give them away to my friends."

Justin Baldoni's support system is standing strong amid his ongoing legal battle with Blake Lively. 

Baldoni, who celebrated his 41st birthday Friday, received an outpouring of love on social media from two of his biggest fans — his wife, Emily, and mom, Sharon. 

"Happy Birthday Justin ~ remembering a wonderful moment after the final ending of ‘Jane The Virgin’- a moment where joy and love permeated the set, where friendships and family were born and kindness and integrity permeated the hearts of all the actors and crew, where sadness only entered because it was the final scene of a wonderful journey~ and the beginning of the rest of our lives," Sharon Baldoni wrote alongside a carousel of photos.

Happy Birthday my beautiful boy! May God continue to bless you in truth."

On Friday, Baldoni's wife also shared her first Instagram post during the ongoing legal battle, writing, "Happy birthday my love. Celebrating the man, husband, and father that you are. I’d choose you again and again."

The statements come one month after Lively detailed allegations of sexual harassment, retaliation, intentional affliction of emotional distress, negligence and more against Baldoni and film producer Jamey Heath in a complaint first filed with the California Civil Rights department and later in federal court.

Baldoni filed a $400 million lawsuit against Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, accusing them of civil extortion and defamation. 

In the suit, Baldoni claimed Lively "refused to meet with the intimacy coordinator" to go over intimate scenes.

This put Baldoni in "the awkward position of meeting alone with the intimacy coordinator and later relaying sex scene suggestions and plans to Lively in the intimacy coordinator’s absence," his suit states. 

"These meetings often took place, at Lively’s insistence, in the couple’s home, and often while Lively’s husband was present. Lively’s method of work was unconventional and uncomfortable for Baldoni. To suggest Baldoni was the one who created this scenario is knowingly false.

"As a result, many sex scenes were not written with simultaneous collaboration and input from both Lively and the intimacy coordinator, as Baldoni had long intended." 

Shortly after filing his suit, Baldoni's team released unedited footage from the set of "It Ends With Us" that it claims refutes Lively's previous accusations of sexual harassment.

The video, shared by Baldoni's attorney, Bryan Freedman, and obtained by Fox News Digital, allegedly addresses the actress's claims about a slow dance scene.

After the release, Blake Lively's legal team demanded a gag order be issued against Baldoni's lawyer. 

Lively's team slammed Freedman for making multiple statements to the media that could taint a jury should the actress's sexual harassment complaints against Baldoni make it to a courtroom.

"As Ms. Lively’s counsel have attempted, repeatedly, to caution Mr. Freedman, federal litigation must be conducted in court and according to the relevant rules of professional conduct," a letter, obtained by Fox News Digital, stated. 

"His conduct threatens to, and will, materially prejudice both the Lively Case and the Wayfarer (Studios) Case by tainting the jury pool, because his statements are deliberately aimed at undermining the ‘character, credibility, [and] reputation’ of numerous relevant parties."

On Jan. 23, Baldoni's lawyers filed a response, calling Lively's gag order attempt an "intimidation tactic" and "tactical gamesmanship."

"Having publicly made ruinous allegations that the Wayfarer Parties can prove are false, the Lively Parties now invoke attorney disciplinary rules as an intimidation tactic," Baldoni's legal team wrote.

"The Lively Parties’ desire to force the Wayfarer Parties to defend themselves privately against allegations made publicly is not a proper basis for a gag order. It is tactical gamesmanship, and it is outrageous."

The filing says after a "bombshell" New York Times article included Lively's allegations of sexual harassment against Baldoni, releasing the unedited "This Ends With Us" footage has been vital to protecting Baldoni.

"Wheel of Fortune" star Vanna White was left puzzled after social media users called her son Nikko Santo Pietro a "thirst trap."

Last month, White, 67, shared an Instagram video in which she and Santo Pietro were seen in the kitchen as they cooked a chicken dish. After fans used the slang phrase to describe the 30-year-old real estate agent, White appeared to be unfamiliar with the meaning of the term during Thursday's episode of the long-running game show.

"I recently posted a video of me and my son, Nikko, cooking and it got a lot of response," the TV personality told her co-host Ryan Seacrest as the audience cheered.

"I don’t get it," White said with a shrug.

"The kids are calling Nikko a thirst trap," Seacrest, 50, explained. 

The "American Idol" host informed her that fans noticed Santo Pietro was wearing a snug-fitting white T-shirt in the clip.

"Apparently, that was a very tight — he went to the Baby Gap to buy that shirt," Seacrest joked. "It was very tight and they found him strikingly good-looking and no one knows what you cooked."

"What did you guys actually make?" he asked White.

"We cooked Uncle Roy's Chicken," White replied.

"Well, thank you Uncle Roy and thank you, Nikko, for that tight shirt," Seacrest quipped.

White went on to tease that she would be posting another video on Thursday.

"Oh boy!" Seacrest said. 

"What's it going to be?" White said coyly to which Seacrest replied, "We'll find out soon."

The "Vanna Speaks" author later shared another video of herself cooking with Santo Pietro, which was met with a similarly enthusiastic response from her followers.

After White uploaded the first cooking video in December, fans quickly took the comments section to rave over her "handsome" son and inquire about his relationship status.

"Vanna where have you been hiding Nikko ? He’s GORGEOUS," one person wrote.

"Obviously, I had an outpour[ing] from her fans just really being kind and saying all kinds of interesting stuff in the comments," he said.

Santo Pietro, who works at The Agency, the real estate company owned by Mauricio Umansky, ex-husband of "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Kyle Richards, added, "I’ve always loved being in front of the camera, and I work really hard on my social media. That’s a big part of what I do, so it feels natural and good."

However, Santo Pietro was adamant that the praise wasn't going to his head.

"People see me as this heartthrob, and they’re thirsty for me and all this stuff. I love it all, but at the same time, it’s really good to remember the meaningful things in life and just kind of dial it back, doing a lot of charity work, working hard every day," he told the outlet.

"That’s what it is to me," Santo Pietro continued. "Making an impact."

White added, "He’s such a good kid!"

She continued, "I always taught both of my children, you have to work hard to get things, it’s not just given to you. And he’s doing it."

In addition to Santo Pietro, White shares daughter, Gigi, with her ex-husband, restaurant owner George Santo Pietro. 

While some fans had expressed their hopes of finding love with Santo Pietro or setting him up with their daughters, he confirmed he was already in a relationship.

"I have an amazing girlfriend," he told ET. "She’s an absolute sweetheart. She’s a singer-songwriter. We’ve been together for a year. She wrote a song about me. It’s really sweet that she did that.

He added that his girlfriend, Easae, who wrote the song about him titled "Karaoke," "obviously detected the heartthrob thing before America did."

White confirmed that she approved of Easae, saying, "She’s so sweet, she really is, down-to-earth, loving, giving."

Nikko’s viral attention is also potentially sparking a few more television appearances.

"I would love that," White said when asked if fans could expect to see Santo Pietro on "Wheel of Fortune." She noted that her former co-host Pat Sajak’s daughter, Maggie Sajak, has appeared the show many times, including filling in for White while she took over Sajak’s role as host in 2020 when he underwent surgery. Maggie has also worked as the show’s social media correspondent since 2021.  

"I don’t know how well I’d play the game, but I’d love to participate at some level," Nikko added.

Fox News Digital's Elizabeth Stanton contributed to this report.

The actor who played Mark Zuckerberg in a movie more than a decade ago wondered why tech elites, including the Facebook founder are being so political instead of doing better things with their lives.

Actor Jesse Eisenberg, who portrayed the Meta CEO in the 2010 film, "The Social Network", suggested to HBO "Real Time" host Bill Maher that the prominent tech billionaires who have been supportive of President Donald Trump’s second term are not helping humanity in their new relationship with the world leader.

"I look at it from a very specific perspective, which is, if you’re so rich and powerful, why are you not just spending your days doing good things for the world?" Eisenberg said.

BILL MAHER TRASHES KAREN BASS, CALI OFFICIALS FOR RESPONSE TO FIRES: ‘FIDDLING IN GHANA WHILE THE CITY BURNED’

During his 2024 presidential campaign, Trump made friendly relationships with multiple tech titans, among them Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg and later, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos.

Following Trump’s victory – which Musk campaigned for – Bezos and Zuckerberg expressed willingness to cooperate and even support the president’s second term agenda. Bezos declared that he was "very hopeful" about the second term and pledged money to Trump’s inaugural fund. 

During a recent New York Times summit, Bezos said Trump "seems to have a lot of energy around reducing regulation."

"My point of view is, if I can help him do that, I’m going to help him. Because we do have too much regulation in this country," he added.

MAHER CHALLENGES LIBERALS TO HAVE ‘INTELLECTUAL HONESTY’ AND CALL OUT LOCAL LEADERS OVER CALIFORNIA FIRES

Zuckerberg, after donating nearly half a billion to The Democratic Party's get-out-the-vote efforts in 2020 and participating in what conservatives called censorship on social media for years, admitted he was inspired by Trump’s resilience throughout the campaign. 

After Trump’s win, Zuckerberg made huge waves in the tech world by announcing the end of his sites’ fact-checking infrastructure. "We’re going to get rid of fact checkers" and replace them with community notes, already used on X," he said in a video from early January. 

All three – along with other major tech moguls, attended Trump’s Inauguration ceremony on Monday, a move that seemed to perplex Eisenberg, who also depicted supervillain Lex Luthor as an evil tech bro in 2016’s "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice."

"So it’s hard for me to understand the specifics of what they’re doing," the actor said. He pointed to his wife’s activism, noting her work is a contrast to that of the tech elites.

"You know, I married a woman who’s like this amazing activist. All she thinks about all day is, ‘How can I help the people who are most in need?' So when I watch these incredibly powerful people, I just think, ‘Why are you not spending your day helping people?'" he said, adding, "Why are you getting mired into this weird stuff — stuff I don’t really understand — and taking privacy concerns away, hurting people who are already hurting, marginalized people?"

Again, he said, "I’m just thinking, ‘Why are they not spending every day helping people?'"

Lili Reinhart is opening up about her mental health struggles. 

In a new interview with Self Magazine, the 28-year-old actress, who starred as Betty Cooper on "Riverdale" from 2017 to 2023, was candid about the pressures Hollywood can bring and her battle with body dysmorphia.

"I really don’t like looking at season six imagery or pictures, because I know that 99 percent of my thoughts were about my body," said Reinhart, who landed her breakthrough role at 19. "I was a thousand percent just disassociated through that entire day or scene because my entire inner dialogue is just … ‘Your body’s changing.’"

LILI REINHART OPENS UP ABOUT DEPRESSION, BODY DYSMORPHIA STRUGGLES: ‘IT'S SOMETHING THAT NEVER GOES AWAY'

"It was really hard to keep up, but I did," she added of keeping up with the hustle and bustle of show business. "I didn’t have a choice, and I’ve always just showed up and done my job."

Reinhart has been an avid advocate for mental health awareness throughout the years, and she recently spoke more toward her own experience at the White House in 2024. 

"That’s the ironic thing that people don’t see," she told Self. "I’m literally in Washington, D.C., at the White House giving a speech on mental health. And then that same night, I am sobbing, in so much discomfort, and feel so defeated."

In 2019, Reinhart admitted that while her depression is a constant battle, she's learned healthy coping mechanisms throughout the years. 

"Depression has affected me in so many ways. It's something that never goes away," she told Glamour UK at the time. "I have spells of time where I feel completely unmotivated, I don't want to do anything, and I question myself. I don't know how to handle stress very well. I find that talking about it and sharing my experience with other people, and reminding myself that I’m not alone has been incredibly therapeutic."

"Seeing the therapist allowed me to be understood. The goal for me has been to always leave therapy feeling a couple of inches taller. Feeling like I've alleviated myself of a problem by learning how to solve it," the "Hustlers" star added. 

"Not everything has a straight answer – it's not just going to take one session – but I start to think, 'I've grown, I've done this, I've figured this out, now I can go off into the world and try to put what I’ve learned into action.' That's how I look at therapy. I am not crazy, and I am not problematic. I am just a human who's feeling something in a different way than some other people would," added Reinhart.

In 2023, Reinhart shared her concerns over Hollywood's obsession with body image and how it has impacted her. 

"I wish there were more average-sized arms represented in mainstream media for women," the actress wrote on X, (formally Twitter). "My body dysmorphia has been going crazy because I feel like my arms need to be half the size they are currently? We've glamorized these skinny arms that, for most of us, can only be achieved if you're a literal adolescent."  

"I truly wonder how anyone survives or gets through this life without having severe BD. Maybe it's a cruel amplified version in combination with my OCD, but damn. The amount of time I've wasted thinking about my arms in the last few months is insane," she added. 

These days, Reinhart said she's content with where she is in her mental health journey. 

"I feel strong and happy about the mental health advocacy that I’ve done, and I feel happy that I’m about to bring physical health into that conversation, because I know that getting help for women over the next four years is going to be exponentially more difficult," she told Self. "Listen to your body, and don’t take no for an answer. Don’t let a doctor tell you that nothing’s wrong when you know that there is."

Pamela Anderson opened up about her early days as a Playboy model to Martha Stewart.

During an interview for Elle's January 2025 digital issue, Stewart spoke to Anderson about her recent film, "The Last Showgirl," and her Oscar snub. 

While diving into her career, Anderson and Stewart took a trip down memory lane to when they were first introduced to fame.

"Back to the movie. I can’t stop thinking about that man in the audition scene. … It’s happened to all of us. Those auditions that are just so ridiculous and so heartless. You get the real feeling of that there," Stewart said, referencing Anderson's latest film.

Pamela replied, "I like that she doesn’t take no for an answer. She almost walks away but then turns back and says, ‘What didn’t you like about it?’ As much as she wore her heart on her sleeve in reassessing her life choices, she fought back."

"I had an experience like that when I was very young, going on go-sees as a model. They asked all the girls to bring bikinis, and after my interview with about 15 guys sitting around a table, they said, ‘Go get into your bikini," Stewart said.

"And I said, ‘Does the part require a bikini?’ And the guy said, ‘No, but we have you here, so we might as well look at you.’ And I just walked out of the room. I was maybe 17 [years old] at the time, but I just wouldn’t put up with that crap.

PAMELA ANDERSON REVEALS SHE HAS NEVER SEEN STOLEN SEX TAPE WITH EX TOMMY LEE: 'IT WAS VERY HURTFUL'

"That’s the way I’ve been all along, I just wouldn’t put up with it," Stewart said. "When you see that other girls put up with it because they need the money or they need the job, it’s a difficult situation. I think that might be getting better after all these years."

Anderson sympathized with Stewart and explained that her mother was a big reason she decided to pose for Playboy in October 1989.

"It’s hard to navigate a business that is based on physical beauty and also naïveté. You’re in this business, and you want to please people. And you have a gut feeling that maybe it’s not the right thing to do, and you can get yourself in these dangerous situations," Anderson said. 

"I was such a shy young girl, if you can believe it — I wanted to do anything to stop being shy. When the Playboy cover [opportunity] came up, my mom said, ‘Do it.’ I didn’t know what it was going to lead to, but then it led to this wild and crazy life," Anderson concluded.

In 2018, Anderson discussed her mother's influence on her Playboy career.

"It was the woman’s choice to be in the magazine. It was my choice to be in the magazine, I wasn’t made to do anything I was uncomfortable with. My first reaction was no, and I talked to mother. And she said, ‘Why not? Get out of this small town, go to Los Angeles. How exciting,'" Anderson told the Associated Press at the time.

"I’d never been on a plane before, I’d never gotten out of my little town and I was scared to death by it. I overcame a lot of my painful shyness. That’s for sure."

Now that her Playboy days are behind her, Anderson is living a peaceful life in Ladysmith in British Columbia. The "Baywatch" star decided to get back into acting as well as gardening and moving her parents onto her property.

"The Last Showgirl," which debuted in 2024, gave Anderson Golden Globe and SAG nominations but not an Oscar nod.

"Congratulations on the Golden Globe nomination. I don’t think you got an Oscar," Stewart told Anderson.

Pamela replied, "No, no nomination for the Oscar, but I couldn’t even imagine that. I did get a SAG nomination, which is really exciting and … all of this is just unexpected and exciting. I always say the win is in the work. I got to do something I really love, and I needed to do that for my soul."

Justin Baldoni's legal team is not letting Blake Lively's gag order request go quietly.

Earlier this week, the actress demanded a gag order be enforced against Baldoni's lawyer, Bryan Freedman, after Freedman released unedited footage from the "It Ends With Us" set. 

In a court filing Tuesday, Lively's team slammed Freedman for making multiple statements to the media that could taint a jury should the actress's sexual harassment complaints against Baldoni make it to a courtroom.

On Jan. 23, Baldoni's lawyers filed a response, calling Lively's gag order attempt an "intimidation tactic" and "tactical gamesmanship."

JUSTIN BALDONI CLAIMS UNEDITED ‘IT ENDS WITH US’ FOOTAGE REFUTES BLAKE LIVELY'S SEXUAL HARASSMENT ACCUSATIONS 

"Having publicly made ruinous allegations that the Wayfarer Parties can prove are false, the Lively Parties now invoke attorney disciplinary rules as an intimidation tactic," Baldoni's legal team wrote.

"The Lively Parties’ desire to force the Wayfarer Parties to defend themselves privately against allegations made publicly is not a proper basis for a gag order. It is tactical gamesmanship, and it is outrageous."

The filing states that, after a "bombshell" New York Times article included Lively's allegations of sexual harassment against Baldoni, releasing the unedited "This Ends With Us" footage has been vital to protecting their client.

They called the backlash from the article "utterly calamitous," adding that Baldoni and his team have been "exiled from polite society" because of it. The letter also said Baldoni has suffered damages "totaling hundreds of millions of dollars due to Ms. Lively’s scorched-earth media campaign."

Representatives for Lively did not respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

The unedited "This Ends With Us" video, shared by Baldoni's attorney and obtained by Fox News Digital, allegedly addresses the actress's claims about a slow-dance scene.

Lively claimed Baldoni "leaned forward and slowly dragged his lips from her ear and down her neck as he said, ‘It smells so good,'" while filming a slow dance montage scene, according to her Dec. 20 sexual harassment lawsuit obtained by Fox News Digital. 

"When Ms. Lively later objected to this behavior, Mr. Baldoni’s response was, ‘I’m not even attracted to you.’"

LIKE WHAT YOU’RE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS

However, Baldoni insisted the comment was made in regard to Lively's own admission about her spray tan. Throughout the video, nearly 10 minutes of raw footage, Baldoni is directing the scene while Lively engages him in conversation because she states that it's "more romantic" than just staring at each other. 

While Baldoni snuggled into Lively's neck, the actor jokingly asked, "Am I getting beard on you today?" She laughed and said, "I'm probably getting spray tan on you."

Baldoni then stated, "It smells good," to which Lively responded, "Well, it's not that. It's my body makeup."

The videos "captured on May 23, 2023, clearly refute Ms. Lively's characterization of his behavior," a statement shared at the beginning of the clip stated. "The scene in question was designed to show the two characters falling in love and longing to be close to one another. Both actors are clearly behaving well within the scope of the scene and with mutual respect and professionalism. These are all three takes filmed of the sequence."

Lively's legal team claimed the unedited video is "damning evidence" and "corroborates" her allegations of sexual harassment.

"Justin Baldoni and his lawyer may hope that this latest stunt will get ahead of the damaging evidence against him, but the video itself is damning. Every frame of the released footage corroborates, to the letter, what Ms. Lively described in Paragraph 48 of her complaint," Lively's legal team said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital. 

"The video shows Mr. Baldoni repeatedly leaning in toward Ms. Lively, attempting to kiss her, kissing her forehead, rubbing his face and mouth against her neck, flicking her lip with his thumb, caressing her, telling her how good she smells, and talking with her out of character.

"Every moment of this was improvised by Mr. Baldoni with no discussion or consent in advance and no intimacy coordinator present. Mr. Baldoni was not only Ms. Lively’s co-star, but the director, the head of studio and Ms. Lively’s boss.

"The video shows Ms. Lively leaning away and repeatedly asking for the characters to just talk. Any woman who has been inappropriately touched in the workplace will recognize Ms. Lively’s discomfort. They will recognize her attempts at levity to try to deflect the unwanted touching. No woman should have to take defensive measures to avoid being touched by their employer without their consent."

Last week, Baldoni filed a $400 million lawsuit against Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds.

American boxer Devin Haney took aim at Sylvester Stallone over the actor's recent commentary on the current state of boxing.

Stallone, a three-time Academy Award nominee, received critical acclaim for his portrayal of Philadelphia boxer Rocky Balboa in the film franchise. 

A video recently surfaced on social media showing Stallone holding the gloves he wore in the mid-1970s during the filming of the original sports drama movie. At one point during the video, Stallone suggested the gloves were identical to what professional boxers used in the '70s.

"They don't even allow these today because they're so dangerous. But that's what they used when I did the film. They're barely six ounces, they're Reyes and they're literally lethal. I still have them because it's a time when people were tougher. I'm sorry, they were. Life is just getting a little easier and easier and easier. ... I cherish hard work, even though I hate it."

BOXING STAR TYSON FURY ANNOUNCES RETIREMENT FOLLOWING LOSSES TO OLEKSANDR USYK

Haney disagreed with Stallone's assertion and shared his rebuttal via X, formerly Twitter.

"Dude don't know a left hook from a fish hook, and got the nerve to speak on times being easier in boxing like he wasn't just an actor... Buddy them Rocky movies wasn't real," Haney wrote.

April's upset defeat to Ryan Garcia marked Haney's most recent appearance in a professional bout.

Haney, known as "The Dream," eventually pursued legal recourse against Garcia after learning Garcia failed multiple drug tests ahead of the bout.

Officials overturned Garcia's victory and ruled the fight a no-contest.

Josh Brolin joked about quitting acting as he criticized the Academy for snubbing "Dune: Part Two" director Denis Villeneuve.

Brolin, who has starred in both "Dune" and "Dune: Part Two," had previously threatened to quit acting if Villeneuve's work in the sequel were not recognized.

"Just want to say congratulations on the ‘Dune’ best picture nomination, to Greig Fraser on cinematography, for best visual effects, for Patrice [Vermett] on production design and for sound," Brolin said in a video shared to his Instagram story. "Apparently, I am going to quit acting because Denis Villeneuve didn’t get nominated."

"This is just how this thing works," he added. "It makes no sense to me. That’s OK. [Editor] Joe Walker and Denis, you deserve it. It’s an amazing film. It was even better than the first one. The people who have gotten accolades surely deserve it. Happy to be a part of it. Congrats everyone."

OSCAR NOMINATIONS: DEMI MOORE, SELENA GOMEZ, NICOLE KIDMAN LEAD BIGGEST SNUBS AND SURPRISES

Brolin praised the "Dune" sequel as a "better movie" than the first, as he threatened to quit the industry in November.

"If he doesn’t get nominated this year, I’ll quit acting," Brolin told Variety. "It was a better movie than the first one. When I watched it, it felt like my brain was broken open. It’s masterful, and Denis is one of our master filmmakers. If the Academy Awards have any meaning whatsoever, they’ll recognize him."

Villeneuve wasn't the only industry star who was snubbed. Actresses such as Selena Gomez, Nicole Kidman, Angelina Jolie and more were noticeably passed over for their parts in their individual films.

While French director Jacques Audiard's "Emilia Pérez" received a total of 13 nominations, Selena Gomez, who plays Jessi Del Monte, the wife of a cartel leader who undergoes gender-affirming surgery, did not snag a single nomination. 

Angelina Jolie, who portrays opera legend Maria Callas in the film, underwent months of Italian lessons and rigorous vocal training to perform some of Callas’s biggest hits, according to W magazine. However, she didn't win a nomination for best actress.

Meanwhile, Demi Moore earned her first ever Oscar nomination for "The Substance." She's up for best actress alongside Cynthia Erivo for "Wicked," Mikey Madison for "Anora," Karla Sofia Gascon for "Emilia Perez" and Fernanda Torres for "I'm Still Here."

"Being nominated for an Oscar is an incredible honor and these last few months have been beyond my wildest dreams," Moore said in a statement.

Actor and comedian Michael Rapaport slammed TikTok as a "dirty" and "biased" platform as the video app went dark for U.S. users over the weekend.

Rapaport's video was posted before the app shut off due to its ties to the Chinese Communist government via parent company ByteDance. Congress passed a law last year that forced TikTok to be sold to an American company or be banned in the U.S. with a deadline of Jan. 19.

"You did it yourself, TikTok, TikTok-ers," Rapaport said as he launched into his rant. "You can say what you want about Elon Musk. You can say what you want about Zuckerberg. At least we have a face. At least we have people to complain to. We can tweet at them. We can DM them. We could put our face on wax and scream and yell at them."

MICHAEL RAPAPORT GOES BALLISTIC ON GAVIN NEWSOM OVER LA FIRES: ‘TRUMP-PROOFING CALIFORNIA? TRY FIRE-PROOFING’

"We don't know who the f--- has been running this platform," he added. "This platform is dirty. This platform is biased. It's d--- near soft p--- on here. I've seen some crazy s--- on TikTok. You did it to yourself."

However, TikTok service was reinstated for U.S. users on Sunday after going dark for roughly 12 hours. 

Before TikTok quit working, a message shared on the app stated that President Trump had indicated he would work with the Chinese-owned company for a "solution" to the national security issue. In his rant, Rapaport pointed out that it's unclear who exactly is the face behind the video app.

"Say what you want about Facebook, Instagram, X, WhatsApp, Snapchat," Rapaport continued. "At least we know who's running the joint. We don't know what the f--- and who the f--- is doing what at TikTok and the vile antisemitic, anti-Jewish, anti-Israel soft p--- … bye, bye TikTok."

The "True Romance" star recently went viral after posting a rant about California Gov. Gavin Newsom's handling of the Los Angeles fires.

"You’re talking about Trump this, Trump that. He’s not even president," the 54-year-old said in a video he posted to Instagram on Jan. 14 about the Southern California fires, which destroyed thousands of homes and businesses.

"Get the f--- out of here!" he said of Newsom. "'We’ll do better next time. We need to learn from our mistakes,'" he mocked.

"You’re not running for sixth-grade class president," he added. "Them days are over." 

"What a good old boy you turned out to be, you little bulls--- artist," Rapaport said.
