“It got me. I was extremely emotional. I was definitely crying,” admits award-winning actress Vanessa Hudgens while discussing her “The Masked Singer” win as Goldfish. “It ended meaning so much more to me than a normal win would because it had nothing to do with the celebrity of me or the idea of me. It had everything to do with what I on the inside bring to the table and my talents. It ended up definitely meaning the world.”
The actress says she worked closely with her producer while choosing songs throughout the season. “I didn’t go into this trying to hide who I was,” she reveals. “I was kind of being really cheeky about the musical choices. ‘Vampire’ was by Olivia Rodrigo, who plays Gabriella in the new ‘High School Musical.’ I thought that was hilarious, and just a great song.

When Bad Boys for Life came out in January 2020, it ended a 17-year wait for the third film in the franchise, which launched in 1995 with Bad Boys and continued in 2003 with Bad Boys II. It’s only taken a relatively brief four-plus years to get the latest entry in the series, Bad Boys: Ride or Die, to the screen—but it’s been a tumultuous stretch, to say the least.
“The hope is definitely that everything will be a little bit smoother from now on,” co-director Adil El Arbi, returning to the franchise with directing partner Bilall Fallah after taking over for Michael Bay on the third film, tells Den of Geek ahead of the movie’s arrival. “Because also in those last four years, five years, we have learned so much.

When it comes to versatility, few do it better than Jeff Daniels, who has had no problem switching between dramas and comedies throughout his illustrious career. However, for his 1993 comedy, Dumb and Dumber, which will be celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, Daniels recalled his agents being against him taking the gig in the Jim Carrey-led film.
While this proved to be the right decision, as the comedy cemented itself as a classic and made a fortune at the box office, the actor feared his career might end because of the toilet scene. But opposed to his fear, the scene was lauded by fans and critics, and it also reminded Clint Eastwood of his failed date.

Bad Boys apparently really are for life as it seems that this action-packed franchise isn’t ending anytime soon with Sony Pictures’ Bad Boys 4 set to reach theatres in just a couple months. This series, centered on detectives Mike Lowery and Marcus Burnett of the Miami Police Department, has already produced three blockbuster films that have grossed over $840 million as well as a spinoff television show, L.A.’s Finest, making it one of the most successful buddy-cop action-comedy series in history. The most recent film, Bad Boys for Life, was one of the last movies to hit theaters before the pandemic shut them all down and was able to be a critical and box office success – so why would the franchise stop now? Will Smith and Martin Lawrence (Lowery and Burnett) are back for the fourth film, and this is music to the ears of fans of the series since...

In a new interview with Closer Weekly, Alfonso Ribeiro said his iconic role in The Fresh Prince of Bel Air as Carlton Banks was a “sacrifice” for his acting career.
“Playing Carlton on ‘Fresh Prince’ became a sacrifice. I used to always say doing Carlton was the greatest and worst thing that ever happened to me,” Ribeiro said.
“It was one of the greatest roles that I ever was fortunate enough to play. But it was also the role that stopped me from acting again because people couldn’t see me as anything else. The sacrifice was not having an acting career anymore.”
Despite that downer of a sentiment, Ribeiro does have favorite memories from filming.
“It was about the cast and spending time with them. Before every show, we would go into Will Smith’s dressing room, and we’d play music and dance and just have a great...

A couple of years ago, it was announced that Warner Bros. and producer Akiva Goldsman‘s company Weed Road are working on a sequel to the 2007 Richard Matheson adaptation I Am Legend (watch it Here), which will see Will Smith reprising the role of Dr. Robert Neville, now joined in the cast by an unspecified character played by Michael B. Jordan. We haven’t heard much about I Am Legend 2 as time has gone by – but Entertainment Tonight caught up with Smith at a screening of the new Bad Boys sequel Bad Boys: Ride or Die, and he confirmed that it’s still in the works, adding that there are “really solid ideas” for this sequel.
Smith said that he and Jordan “had a couple weeks together about a month ago. I think it’s looking good. [We have some] really solid ideas… I think we’re going to make it on screen together.

Will Smith had one prediction for Eminem’s explosive growth in the Hip Hop world that came true. Smith listened to Eminem’s track, Just the Two of Us, from his Slim Shady EP and shared that the rapper would become the biggest thing in Hip Hop or the biggest flop. The crazy lyrics of the song somehow connected with the audience who hailed Eminem as a musical genius.

Martin Lawrence and Will Smith return for the fourth Bad Boys film, Bad Boys: Ride Or Die. Here’s the trailer for the film.
Nearly 30 years after the original film landed, Bad Boys: Ride Or Die is headed for cinemas in a few weeks’ time.
The previous film in the series. Bad Boys For Life was the highest-grossing film of 2020, although of course quite a lot of things happened in 2020 which meant that as statistics go, that one doesn’t mean all that much. It was the lowest-grossing number one film since the mid-90s.
The future of the film was up in the air ever since Will Smith severely damaged his public image following the slap incident at 2022’s Oscars ceremony. While the film did eventually find a path to production we imagine that the chances of a Chris Rock cameo are probably pretty low.
Here’s the synopsis:...

Bad Boys: Ride or Die is about to enter theaters and the only question in my mind is if Will Smith‘s Oscar 2022 controversy will end the long-running Bad Boys franchise.
It has been more than two years since Smith caused one of the biggest controversies in Hollywood. If you don’t remember let’s recap a bit, on the night of Oscar 2022 popular comedian Chris Rock came out to present an award and made a throwaway and truthfully harmless joke about Smith’s wife Jada Pinkett-Smith and that’s when Smith got up on the stage and slapped him. If that wasn’t bizarre enough, Smith went on to win the Best Actor award and the night went on like nothing had happened.
The whole internet was outraged by Smith’s action and he even attempted to apologize to the comedian and his fans but the damage had already been done.

Starring iconic Hollywood stars like Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, Men in Black has solidified its place as one of their most notable works. While Smith’s comedic prowess, honed through projects like The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and various comedy films, makes his role understandable, the same isn’t immediately evident for Jones.

Unlike his other notable roles, which usually don’t fall within the comedy or sci-fi genres, Jones’ portrayal of Agent K’s composed demeanor in even the most absurd scenarios undeniably induces smiles from audiences. And it could be credited to the filmmaker Barry Sonnenfeld’s approach to bringing out the comedic side of the Oscar-winning actor.

Sitting at a capacious round table filled with half-a-dozen entertainment reporters, Gary Oldman describes himself as a fan of television. “Some of the best stuff you see is on your television screen,” he said. “I love long-form.”
Frankly, this isn’t the first time a movie star who’s new to television has praised the medium printing his paychecks. But Oldman — in a winding, hourlong conversation pegged to “Slow Horses,” his first TV role as a series regular — really does seem to love the visual art of serialized narratives. During the December luncheon (hosted by Apple in New York’s Tribeca neighborhood), he brought up a dozen shows, often unprompted, and even quoted his favorite line from “Succession” off the cuff.
“God, [Brian] Cox had one of the greatest lines when he said, ‘What is that smell in here? It’s like a cheesemonger died and left his cock in the brie,...
Frankly, this isn’t the first time a movie star who’s new to television has praised the medium printing his paychecks.

The 79-year-old director added that one of the things that...
