Late night sketch show "Saturday Night Live" has been one of television's most beloved sources of comedy since its launch in 1975. It's featured a rotating roster of talent during its incredible run and underwent a creative renaissance in the '80s that launched the careers of numerous major names. Join us as we run through some of the other biggest "Saturday Night Live" players from the '80s and see what they're up to now!

First up? Mike Myers began appearing on "Saturday Night Live" in 1989 and eventually became the first repertory player added to the show's cast in over two years. "He quickly became one of the show's biggest draws thanks to his talent for creating oddball characters with memorable catchphrases," wrote Entertainment Weekly. The funnyman became best known for playing Wayne Campbell in the popular "Wayne's World" sketches (pictured, left) as well as Dieter, the host of "Sprockets," and Linda Richman, hostess of "Coffee Talk." Following the two hit "Wayne's World" films, Mike left "SNL" in 1995 to focus on big screen opportunities.

Mike Myers took a two-year hiatus from performing after leaving "Saturday Night Live" before returning to the spotlight in 1997 as the lead actor and writer of the hit 1997 comedy "Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery." The spy spoof also launched two successful sequels. One of Mike's rare non-comedic roles came in the 1998 drama "54," in which he played the real-life owner of New York City's famous '70s nightclub Studio 54. In 2001, he provided the voice of the titular character in the animated film "Shrek" and went on to reprise the role in numerous sequels and specials. He also played the title role in the 2003 big screen adaptation of "The Cat In The Hat" and starred in and co-wrote 2008's "The Love Guru." He had a small role in 2009's "Inglourious Basterds" before taking a nearly decade-long hiatus from acting. 2018 provided a comeback with supporting parts in "Terminal" and "Bohemian Rhapsody." More recently, he appeared in the film "Amsterdam" and created and starred on the Canadian Netflix series "The Pentaverate" in 2022. Mike's also stirred up rumors of a possible "Austin Powers 4" movie, telling Sirius XM's "The Jess Cagle Show," "I can neither confirm nor deny the existence or non-existence of such a project, should it exist or not exist."

Martin Short joined "Saturday Night Live" during the 1984–85 season, helping revive the show with his numerous original characters. "Short's appearance on 'SNL' helped to revive the show's fanbase, which had flagged after the departure of Eddie Murphy, and in turn, would launch his successful career in films and television," Turner Classic Movies wrote. He incorporated many of the ideas from his time on the Canadian sketch-comedy series "Second City Television," including his Ed Grimley character, an excessively cowlicked, voluble, hyperactive man-child who's obsessed with banal popular culture, particularly "Wheel of Fortune."

Martin Short ended the '80s with his first HBO stand-up special and went into the '90s starring on three television shows called "The Martin Short Show" including a 1994 sitcom, a 1995 sketch-comedy show and a 1999 syndicated talk show. He was also busy with films, nabbing parts in "Three Amigos," "Innerspace," "The Big Picture," "Captain Ron," "Clifford," "Three Fugitives," "Father of the Bride," "Pure Luck," "Mars Attacks!" and "Jungle 2 Jungle." Martin started the 2000s by playing Jiminy Glick on Comedy Central's "Primetime Glick" from 2001 to 2003. He also guest starred on shows like "Arrested Development," "Muppets Tonight," "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit," "Weeds" and "Damages." Martin joined the cast of "How I Met Your Mother" in 2011 before starring on the short-lived sitcom "Mulaney" in 2014. Two years later, he hosted the NBC variety series "Maya & Marty" opposite Maya Rudolph. He currently stars on the hit Hulu series "Only Murders In The Building," which earned him Primetime Emmy and Golden Globe nominations.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus dropped out of Northwestern University during her junior year after getting cast on "Saturday Night Live" in 1982 at 21, making her the youngest female cast member in the history of the program at that time. She later said her casting was a "Cinderella-getting-to-go-to-the-ball kind of experience," but also admitted that at times it was often quite tense, stating that she "didn't know how to navigate the waters of show business in general and specifically doing a live sketch-comedy show." During her third and final season on the show, she met Larry David — who worked as a writer on "SNL" for one season and went on to create "Seinfeld," on which Julia starred — before she left in 1985.

_

Shortly after departing "Saturday Night Live," Julia Louis-Dreyfus nabbed parts in films such as "Hannah and Her Sisters," "Soul Man" and "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" before starring on the short-lived NBC sitcom "Day by Day" for two seasons. Her breakthrough role came in 1989 with the part of Elaine Benes on "Seinfeld" and lasted for nine years. She garnered critical acclaim for her performance and was a regular winner and nominee at television award shows throughout the '90s. Julia earned a Golden Globe Award, three Screen Actors Guild Awards and the 1996 Primetime Emmy Award for best supporting actress in a comedy series, an award she was nominated for on seven occasions from 1992 to 1998.

She also appeared in the films "Fathers' Day" and "Deconstructing Harry" before "Seinfeld" came to an end. The star then bucked the so-called "Seinfeld" curse: She went on to star on her own show, "The New Adventures of Old Christine," from 2006 to 2010 and won another Emmy. She then moved on to HBO's "Veep" in 2012 and won six consecutive best lead actress in a comedy series Emmys (setting a new record!) for her performance as Selina Meyer before it wrapped in 2019. In 2020, Julia headlined the dramedy "Downhill" opposite Will Ferrell and lent her voice to Pixar's "Onward." In 2021, the breast cancer survivor joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe when she appeared on the Disney+ series "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier" as well as in the movie "Black Widow." She reprised that role in "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" in 2022 and will step into those shoes once more for the 2024 film "Thunderbolts."

During Nora Dunn's "SNL" run from 1985 to 1990, she tickled viewers with her characters including one-half of the Sweeney Sisters lounge act, Wayne's mom Mrs. Campbell and talk show host Pat Stevens. She also did great impressions of Imelda Marcos, Liza Minnelli, Tyne Daly, Joan Baez, Martina Navratilova and more. She made waves when she boycotted the penultimate episode of her "SNL" run because she refused to appear alongside guest host Andrew Dice Clay, the notoriously misogynist comedian.

_

After leaving "Saturday Night Live" in 1990, Nora Dunn enjoyed recurring roles on "Sisters" in the early-to-mid '90s and on "The Nanny" at the end of the decade. She's also popped up on episodes of a wide variety of shows including "The X-Files," "Entourage," "Bones," "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" and many more as well as in movies like 1999's "Three Kings," 2001's "Zoolander," 2003's "Bruce Almighty," 2008's "Pineapple Express" and others. More recently, she had a recurring role on the ABC comedy "Home Economics" (pictured) from 2021 until 2022. Nora — who described working on "SNL" to Salon as "a traumatic experience. … It's kind of something you have to survive and you really have to learn" — and her first husband, playwright Ray Hutcherson, divorced in 1995. She was also briefly wed to set builder Sean McGarry at the end of that decade.

_

Phil Hartman joined "Saturday Night Live" in its 12th season in 1986 and stayed for eight years. He told the the Los Angeles Times, "I wanted to do ['SNL'] because I wanted to get the exposure that would give me box office credibility so I can write movies for myself." Phil became known for his impressions of Frank Sinatra, Ronald Reagan, Ed McMahon, Barbara Bush, Charlton Heston, Phil Donahue and Bill Clinton and performed as more than 70 different characters. He was nicknamed "Glue" by the show's cast and crew for his ability to hold the show together and help other cast members. Phil won a Primetime Emmy Award for for outstanding writing for a variety, music or comedy program for his work in 1989.

_

Phil Hartman left "Saturday Night Live" in the mid-'90s to launch his own variety series, "The Phil Show," which was scrapped before it ever made it to air. Instead, he landed a lead role on the acclaimed NBC sitcom "NewsRadio." He also had minor roles in the films "Houseguest," "Sgt. Bilko," "Jingle All the Way" and "Small Soldiers" and provided the voices for numerous characters on 52 episodes of the long-running animated series "The Simpsons."

In 1998, Phil was tragically shot and killed by wife Brynn Omdahl while he was asleep in bed before she later died by suicide, leaving their two young children without parents. In the weeks following his passing, the actor was celebrated in a wave of tributes and was posthumously inducted into the Canada and Hollywood Walks of Fame. Entertainment Weekly opined that he was "the last person you'd expect to read about in lurid headlines in your morning paper… a decidedly regular guy, beloved by everyone he worked with."

_

Eddie Murphy joined "Saturday Night Live" in 1980, marking the first time he garnered national attention for his work. He was credited for revitalizing the show by creating memorable characters like a grown-up version of the "Little Rascals" character Buckwheat, a streetwise children's show host named Mr. Robinson parodying Mr. Rogers, and a morose, cynical Gumby, whose trademark slogan became an "SNL" catchphrase: "I'm Gumby, dammit!" Once Eddie began racking up major theatrical hits, he felt he had outgrown the series and left in 1984.

_

While doing "Saturday Night Live," Eddie Murphy also worked as a stand-up comedian. He worked steadily in films after leaving the "SNL," starting with the "Beverly Hills Cop" series, which earned him a Golden Globe Award nomination. He also garnered nods for his work in 1996's "The Nutty Professor" and 2019's "Dolemite Is My Name." He also won numerous awards for his work in the 1998 comedy "Dr. Dolittle" and its 2001 sequel, cementing his status as one of Hollywood's biggest comedic movie stars. His filmography also includes "Coming to America," "Vampire in Brooklyn," "Bowfinger," "Daddy Day Camp" and "Meet Dave."

In 2007, Eddie won the Golden Globe for best supporting actor and received an Academy Award nomination for best supporting actor for his dramatic work in the movie-musical "Dreamgirls." He's also made an impression as a voice actor with roles in "Mulan," the sitcom "The PJs" and as Donkey in the "Shrek" series. In 2015, he was awarded the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor by the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. He won his first Primetime Emmy, for outstanding guest actor in a comedy series, for hosting "Saturday Night Live" in 2020. More recently, Eddie starred in 2021's "Coming 2 America" and in Netflix's "You People" in 2023.

Groundlings alum Jan Hooks was a cast member on "Saturday Night Live from 1986 to 1991 and came back to make cameos, often playing Hillary Clinton, until 1994. Some of her memorable characters included Candy Sweeney of "The Sweeney Sisters" alongside Nora Dunn as well as impressions of Tammy Faye Bakker, Kathie Lee Gifford, Kitty Dukakis and Diane Sawyer.

_

Jan Hooks left "Saturday Night Live" in the early '90s to take a starring role on the final two seasons of the hit sitcom "Designing Women," replacing Jean Smart. She also appeared in a recurring role on "3rd Rock From the Sun" — earning an Emmy nomination in 1998 — and did voice work on "The Simpsons" till the early 2000s and in 2010 played Jenna Maroney's mom, Verna, on "SNL" alum Tina Fey's hit NBC sitcom "30 Rock" (seen here). Jan was diagnosed with leukemia in 2009 and, after treatment, went into remission, but in 2014, she learned she had throat cancer. She died in 2014 at 57.

_

Dana Carvey became a household name when he joined "Saturday Night Live" in 1986, helping to reverse the show's declining popularity by making it must-see TV once again. The comedian came up with a slew of beloved original characters while doing the series, such as the Church Lady, the uptight, smug, and pious host of "Church Chat," and Garth Algar from the "Wayne's World" sketches (Garth was based on his brother). Throughout the election and presidency of George H. W. Bush, he was the designated impersonator of the president on "SNL." The "Wayne's World" sketch became so popular that it launched a hit theatrical film in 1992 as well as a sequel the following year. In 1993, Dana left "SNL" and won a Primetime Emmy for outstanding individual performance in a variety or music program.

_

After "Saturday Night Live," Dana Carvey continued making feature films like 1994's "Trapped in Paradise" and "Clean Slate," 2000's "Little Nicky" and 2002's "The Master of Disguise" and filmed his first HBO stand-up special. He continued doing stand-up but stepped away from movies after 2002 until 2011's "Jack and Jill." He instead decided to focus on his family, raising two children with wife Paula Zwagerman. Dana filmed a second stand-up special for HBO in 2008 followed by a Netflix special in 2016. He also lent his voice to the 2016 animated film "The Secret Life of Pets" as well as its 2019 sequel. In 2021, he reprised his role as Garth Algar in a series of "Wayne's World"-themed commercials for Uber Eats. And in 2022, he launched the podcast "Fly on the Wall" with fellow "SNL" alum David Spade. These days, Dana is executive producing "The Weird Place," an episodic sci-fi comedy podcast.

_

Billy Crystal was originally recruited for the first season of "Saturday Night Live," but after his initial set was cut down, his managers pulled him from the show. He then pursued a stand-up career that made him one of the country's leading comedians and landed a starring role on the sitcom "Soap." Billy guest-hosted "SNL" a few times and officially joined the show full time for the 10th season in 1984. Though he only stuck around for one season, he became known for his recurring sketches featuring Fernando, a smarmy talk show host whose catchphrase, "You look… mahvelous," became a media sensation.

_

Shortly after leaving "Saturday Night Live," Billy Crystal became a movie star thanks to roles in films like "Running Scared," "The Princess Bride," "When Harry Met Sally…" and "City Slickers," with the latter two earning him Golden Globe Award nominations. He then wrote, directed and starred in "Mr. Saturday Night" and "Forget Paris" before taking on parts in "Deconstructing Harry," "Analyze This," "America's Sweethearts" and sequel "Analyze That" plus "Parental Guidance." The funnyman, who famously hosted the Academy Awards nine times, also lent his voice to the blockbuster Pixar films "Monsters, Inc.," "Monsters University" and the Disney+ series "Monsters at Work." Billy also popped up on the FX series "The Comedians" and in the indie dramedy "Here Today." He returned to the stage in 2021, reprising the role of Buddy Young Jr. in "Mr. Saturday Night" in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. And in 2022, the actor took home the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Critics Choice Awards.

_

Jon Lovitz became a cast member on "Saturday Night Live" in 1985 and later explained in the book "Live From New York" that it was the most memorable time in his career, as he went from having no money to being offered a $500,000 film contract. His notable characters included Tommy Flanagan, The Pathological Liar, who used the line "Yeah! That's the ticket!" as a catchphrase, and Hanukkah Harry, a Jewish contemporary of Santa Claus who travels the globe with a cart flown by three donkeys to give bland gifts to Jewish boys and girls. Other recurring characters and impersonations included Annoying Man, Master Thespian, Tonto, Mephistopheles, Harvey Fierstein and Michael Dukakis. He was nominated for two Primetime Emmys for his work before eventually leaving the series in 1990.

_

Jon Lovitz followed "Saturday Night Live" with a supporting role in the hit 1992 film "A League of Their Own" and appeared on TV shows like "Las Vegas," "Friends" and "Just Shoot Me." He also took to the big screen in "Little Nicky" and "The Producers" and voiced Quasimodo in 2012's "Hotel Transylvania." In addition to his 30-year contribution to voicing various characters on "The Simpsons," Jon acted in 2016's "Killing Hasselhoff," "Arctic Adventure: On Frozen Pond" and "Mother's Day." From 2016 to 2017, he portrayed Old Ben on the TV series "Animals." He continues to pop up on television occasionally, like on an episode of "A.P. Bio" in 2020, and an episode of "The Masked Singer" in 2023.

_

"Saturday Night Live" cast Kevin Nealon in 1986 after he was recommended by his friend Dana Carvey and he became a full-time performer the following year. He stayed on the show for a then-record nine seasons, becoming known for characters like Mr. Subliminal, Frank Gannon, P.I.P.I., Bob Waltman and Franz of "Hans and Franz" alongside Dana. Kevin is also famous for anchoring "Weekend Update" for three seasons from 1991 to 1994. He left the show the following year.

_

After departing "Saturday Night Live," Kevin Nealon moved into films with 1996's "Happy Gilmore," 1998's "The Wedding Singer," 2000's "Little Nicky," 2003's "Daddy Day Care," 2008's "You Don't Mess with the Zohan," 2009's "Aliens in the Attic" and 2011's "Just Go with It." He also had recurring roles on the sitcoms "Still Standing" from 2003 to 2006 and "'Til Death" in 2010. From 2005 to 2012, he had a lead part on the acclaimed Showtime comedy series "Weeds." When the show wrapped, he was seen in films like "Blended" in 2014, "Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping" in 2016 and "Father of the Year" in 2018. He was also a supporting player on all four seasons of the Matt LeBlanc sitcom "Man with a Plan" from 2016 to 2020. In 2020, he lent his voice to the animated shows "Family Guy" and "Mike Tyson Mysteries," and in 2023, he appeared in the film "Late Bloomers." Outside of acting, Kevin published his first book in 2008, "Yes, You're Pregnant, But What About Me?," and his second, "I Exaggerate: My Brushes with Fame," in 2022.

It's been an uncharacteristically rainy year so far in the Los Angeles area, and some homes are now in trouble because of it.

On March 13, a landslide — caused by saturated ground — reduced an under-construction Sherman Oaks-area mansion to rubble and left two more homes in peril.

Several people have been evacuated from the area. "The whole thing collapse onto itself," Los Angeles Fire Department Captain Adam Van Gerpen told CBS of the destroyed home. Reports claimed an outdoor pool was drained to reduce weight on the hill.

Think your favorite star is one in a million? Well, we hate to break it to you, but that's probably not the case. Take these two, for example…

As we watched "One Day" and "The White Lotus," we couldn't help but think that actor Leo Woodall reminded us of someone… and now we've figured out who it is: a young Hayden Christensen!

Do you see the resemblance between Leo and the "Star Wars" franchise actor too?

In February 2024 — amid her recovery from a mysterious abdominal surgery — Britain's Princess Kate appointed a new private secretary, Lieutenant Colonel Tom White, who was once the late Queen Elizabeth II's equerry. When the internet found out, commenters couldn't help but notice how much he looks like Kate's friend Roger Federer, the tennis icon.

Do you see it too?

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and his brother, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, have both marveled at how much Travis resembles NBA player Jonas Valanciunas, who hails from Lithuania.

"I mean, you guys look just like each other," Jason said on a 2023 episode of their "New Heights" podcast as he and his fellow NFL star brother jokingly debated who could play them in a movie.

Travis agreed. "When I saw Jonas Valanciunas get drafted to the Raptors back in like 2008," he quipped, "I immediately realized we're Lithuanian."

If there's ever a biopic about Gene Wilder's life, we know who to cast!

"Shameless" alum Jeremy Allen White — who scored an Emmy nomination for his work on the Hulu and FX series "The Bear — is a dead ringer for the iconic actor-comedian, who counted among his biggest hits "Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory" and several Mel Brooks films including "The Producers," "Blazing Saddles" and "Young Frankenstein."

Gene, who became increasingly reclusive in his later years, died at 83 in 2016 — three years after he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.

In the summer of 2023, it emerged that Ariana Grande was dating Broadway star Ethan Slater — who scored a Tony nomination in 2018 for best actor in a musical for his performance as the title character in "SpongeBob SquarePants" — after they connected while shooting the film adaptation of "Wicked." Fans were shocked — and not just because the news came fresh on the heels of reports that the singer-actress had split from husband Dalton Gomez following two years of marriage…

Nope, fans were stunned by how much Ethan resembles a young Frankie Grande — Ariana's older brother. From the shape of their eyes to their noses and their matching thin-lipped grins, Frankie and Ethan sure had a lot in common early in their careers, before Frankie — a Broadway star in his own right (he appeared in the Broadway productions of "Rock of Ages" and "Mamma Mia!") who's nearly a decade older than Ethan — underwent a major transformation. (These days, he almost always wears heavy makeup in public.)

The Grammy winner has kept a low-profile in the wake of her headline-making romance with the Tony nominee, who was also still married to someone else when they reportedly took their relationship to the next level.

_

MLB pitcher Tyler Glasnow's teammates on the Tampa Bay Rays have been telling him how much he looks like "Peaky Blinders" star Cillian Murphy for years. "It's not like, a terrible thing. He seems like a good dude," Tyler told the MLB Network of always hearing it. Though their faces may share some striking similarities, that's where it ends: The 6-foot-8 baseball star is more than a foot taller than the "Oppenheimer" actor.

_

Since the beginning of Harry Styles's career, he's been told he could pass for a young Mick Jagger… though it remains to be seen whether the former One Direction singer-turned-solo artist can have that kind of longevity. It certainly seems he's off to a good start! The Rolling Stones frontman weighed in on the hype in 2022, telling the U.K.'s Sunday Times, "I like Harry — we have an easy relationship. I used to wear a lot more eye make-up than him. He doesn't have a voice like mine or move on stage like me; he just has a superficial resemblance to my younger self, which is fine — he can't help that."

_

If he gained about 60 pounds of muscle, former reality TV star Derick Dillard of "Counting On" fame would be a dead ringer for NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Now that you've seen it, you can't unsee it, right?

Mac Miller and Angus Cloud had more in common than the fact that they both died far too young. From the way they wore their hair to their reddish beards, their expansive tattoo collections and their senses of style, there were plenty of similarities between the two young men.

After Mac died of a drug overdose at 26 in 2018, fans clamored for Angus to portray him in a biopic. But the "Euphoria" actor wasn't interested in the role: "I don't think so," he replied when the Canadian outlet etalk asked him in early 2022 if he would ever consider portraying Mac on the big screen. "Taking on someone's whole life and becoming that person like, how much respect you have to give them to actually try to portray them, you know? Like, you have to learn, you know what I'm saying? … I don't think I would be prepared to take on someone's life and legacy and try to replay that, you know? That man is a legend and he's going to remain one. May he rest in peace, you feel me?"

Angus died at 25 in July 2023. His death is currently under investigation. (His mother indicated he may have suffered an overdose when she called 911 after she found him unconscious and without a pulse, though it could be months before a coroner announces his cause of death.)

_

In June 2023, multiple media outlets reported that filmmaker James Gunn had cast David Corenswet to star as Clark Kent in his upcoming superhero flick "Superman: Legacy." The "Guardians of the Galaxy" writer-director clearly didn't do much thinking outside the box considering the American actor is a dead ringer for the last star who brought the Man of Steel to the big screen: British heartthrob Henry Cavill. With their piercing blue eyes and chiseled jaws, the two stars could be brothers. Henry, by the way, is only a decade older than David, who made a name for himself on the Ryan Murphy-helmed shows "The Politician" and "Hollywood."

_

In June 2019, beloved gay pop icon Boy George opened up about a movie about his life that was in the works at MGM. As for who might play him? "There's been some really interesting suggestions," the Culture Club frontman told Australian radio station Nova's "Fitzy and Wippa" show. "One of the most interesting suggestions was ['Game of Thrones' actress] Sophie Turner. [People will say,] 'She can't play you she's a woman,' you know. But when I was 17, I would have loved to have been her." Sophie, meanwhile sees the resemblance too: "I'm SO down!" she tweeted.

_

Nicholas Hoult looks exactly like his "Kill Your Friends" co-star Ed Skrein, don't you think? Seriously, the resemblance between the "Renfield" and "Deadpool" actors is crazy!

_

"Set It Up" and "Something From Tiffany's" star Zoey Deutch — the daughter of actress Lea Thompson and director Howard Deutch — is the same age as "The White Lotus" actress Haley Lu Richardson. The talented stars are also good friends who often get confused for each other. In fact, Zoey auditioned to play Portia on "White Lotus" — a part that ultimately went to Haley. "My dear friend Haley got the role. But I'm still getting credit for it, which is great. I didn't get it, but I'm still in it in a way. People are tweeting me like, 'Who's who? They're the same person!'" Zoey told Buzzfeed of fans' comments on their resemblance to one another, adding, "So it's great. Best-case scenario."

_

It looks like Anne Hathaway has found a twin in human rights attorney Amal Clooney! The "Modern Love" actress responded to look-alike comparisons in a 2015 interview with "Extra," saying, "I've never heard that! Thank you. That's, like, so gonna be the best thing to happen to me today." Cute! "I hope that I become half the woman she is," the Oscar winner added of George Clooney's missus. "She's so accomplished and it's so thrilling to look at someone and be like, 'Wow. You really are making the world a better place.'" (Amal, by the way, is just four years older than Anne.)

_

"Ginny & Georgia" star Brianne Howey is a very pretty woman… who reminds us an awful lot of the star of "Pretty Woman," Julia Roberts. From their big brown eyes to their noses that come to a perfect point to their big, toothy grins, these two are practically twins!

_

Those piercing eyes! That sharp jawline! Those pillowy lips! Even with different hairstyles, actress Anya Taylor-Joy's partner, MORE* musician Malcolm McRae, is a dead ringer for her "Peaky Blinders" co-star Cillian Murphy.

_

It's pretty wild, but when we saw up-and-coming rapper Yung Gravy (real name: Matthew Raymond Hauri) perform his viral TikTok hit "Betty (Get Money)" on the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards pre-show, we couldn't help but think — if you take away the feathered hair, gold chain and leisure suit — he looks an awful lot like a handsome blonde "Top Gun: Maverick" hunk Glen Powell! Unexpected, yes, but do you see it too?

_

Bird Bakery founder Elizabeth Chambers — who many fans also know as Armie Hammer's soon-to-be-ex-wife — and "Selling Sunset" star Chrishell Stause are dead ringers for one another. From their arched eyebrows to their straight noses to their wide smiles full of perfect teeth, the beauties could be twins!

_

Football fans have noticed that "Home Alone" actor Macaulay Culkin and Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow are dead ringers for one another, from their light eyes that pop in their expressive faces to their smirks to the cowlicks in their blonde hair.

_

Seeing double? Comedian Will Ferrell and Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith played into speculation about their twin status during a 2014 interview on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" where they rocked the same outfit and proving just how much they look alike. (That's Will on the left and Chad on the right, for the record.) Keep reading to see them up close…

_

Comedy legend Will Ferrell and Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith are both kind of a big deal. Also a big deal? They could pass for twins.

_

Comedian Pete Davidson has always reminded us of someone, and we finally figured it out: He has a lot of facial features in common with a young Jon Cryer, from their mouths and noses to their ears and eyebrows. Sometimes when we see the "Saturday Night Live" star in action, all we can think about is Ducky from "Pretty in Pink"! Fun fact: Pete and the Emmy-winning "Two and a Half Men" actor co-starred in the 2020 Hulu film "Big Time Adolescence" together.

_

"Stranger Things" star Joseph Quinn, who plays Eddie Munson on the hit Netflix series, gives us a little young Robert Downey Jr. déjà vu — there's just something about the actors and their big brown eyes, parted lips, rounded noses and facial scruff.

_

These days, Monica Lewinsky — the former White House intern who became a pop culture figure after her affair with President Bill Clinton was exposed in the '90s — looks a lot like former Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue model-turned-entrepreneur Kathy Ireland who, despite being a decade older, shares the same honey-highlighted chocolate brown hair color, green-tinged eyes, nose shape and wide white smile.

_

Emmy-nominated "Homeland" and "Anatomy of a Scandal" star Rupert Friend and former "The Bachelorette" star Tyler Cameron, a contractor and male model, could be the same person. From their eyes and mouths to those jawlines, we feel like we're seeing double!

_

PBS fans have noticed that British actress Rose Williams, who's starred on the period dramas "Reign" and "Sanditon," bears an uncanny resemblance to another beautiful brown-eyed brunette thespian: former "Suits" star-turned-Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle.

_

Emmy-winning "Game of Thrones" actor Peter Dinklage is a dead ringer for a certain notorious celebrity gossip blogger — Perez Hilton (real name: Mario Lavandeira Jr.). From their eyes and noses to their smiles, hair and facial scruff, it's uncanny — do you see it?

_

"Cyrano" star Haley Bennett looks an awful lot like another very famous blonde — Jennifer Lawrence! From the eyes to the face shape to their tendency to rock their locks in a short bob, these two could play sisters one day.

_

We never saw it before, but now we can't unsee it! "Beverly Hills, 90210" alum-turned-reality TV star Tori Spelling stepped out for dinner in Los Angeles in September 2021 after undergoing a total makeover. At first glance — thanks to her long, bleached-blonde center-parted hair, lash-heavy eyes, contoured makeup and plump lips, we thought she was another star: Khloe Kardashian! Tori even weighed in on the comparison, telling TMZ she was "honored" to be likened to the reality TV Kardashian.

_

Hazel Moder — the daughter of actress Julia Roberts and cinematographer Danny Moder — might be the kid of a movie star but she looks like she could be the long-lost look-alike child of Emmy-winning "Saturday Night Live" producer Lindsay Shookus, who made headlines during the years she dated Ben Affleck. From their blonde hair and blue eyes to their straight smiles and chiseled noses, the resemblance is pretty uncanny despite the 25 years between them.

_

There might be a 29-year age gap between these two, but Italian-French model, singer and former first lady of France Carla Bruni Sarkozy and supermodel Bella Hadid could be mother and daughter! Both dark-haired beauties look so similar that upon meeting at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival, Carla shared a picture of the two on Instagram that she captioned, "Do I have a hidden daughter?" The beauties posed together again during a Dior dinner at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival (seen here).

_

Though you might not immediately think of Jaime Pressly while looking at Margot Robbie, when side by side, it's clear the actresses share some striking similarities beyond their blonde hair including their eyes, lips, noses and chiseled jawlines.

_

Has it been bugging you too? We fell in love with Midge's ex-husband, Joel Maisel, on the award-winning Amazon Prime Video series "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" and always thought he reminded us of someone… and we finally figured out who: Actor Michael Zegen is a dead-ringer for Bachelor Nation star Jason Tartick. From their big brown eyes and similar cowlicks and widow's peaks to their noses and chins, these two could be brothers.

_

Country music singer Maren Morris drew comparisons to reality TV star Khloe Kardashian after she hit the 2021 Grammys red carpet sporting the same beauty look — blonde hair with dark roots, full lips and dark eye makeup — that the Good American clothing brand founder has often worn.

_

Marvel and "Stars Wars" fans have long pointed out how much "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier" star Sebastian Stan looks like a young Mark Hamill — aka the iconic Luke Skywalker — and many have voiced support for the "Avengers" franchise actor to play the Jedi if a rumored Disney+ project focused on Luke's earlier years ever comes to fruition. We totally see it — both actors have the same light eyes, lip shape and, of course, the same sexy cleft chin.

_

Models Irina Shayk and Nicole Poturalski — who made headlines in August 2020 when it was revealed that she was, at the time, dating Brad Pitt — had fashion fans seeing double when they both hit the runway for Hugo Boss during Milan Women's Fashion Week on Sept. 25, 2020. From their killer cheekbones and jawlines to their dark hair, blue eyes and pillow lips, the Russian and German models could be twins!

_

With her incredible eyebrows, perfect cherry pout and short bangs, "Emily in Paris" star Lily Collins is a dead ringer for late screen legend Audrey Hepburn.

_

Someone call a doctor because we're totally seeing double! Javier Bardem and Jeffrey Dean Morgan have been causing confusion for years.

_

Jon Snow might know nothing, but we know that he has a look-alike in another HBO actor: Christopher Abbott. The "Girls" and "Catch-22" alum is a dead-ringer for "Game of Thrones" star Kit Harington with his dark, wavy hair, widow's peak, signature stubble, pillowy lips and brooding stare.

_

Bryce Dallas Howard and Jessica Chastain have more in common than copper locks. The classic beauties also share similar eyebrow shapes, striking green eyes and high cheekbones.

_

You've got to admit that Khloe Kardashian was once the spitting image of Joanie Laurer, the late wrestler better known as Chyna…

_

If only he had blue-green eyes and a scar on his eyebrow, "Prometheus" star Logan Marshall-Green would look exactly like Tom Hardy.

_

With her big brown eyes, dark locks and long bangs, British actress Daisy Edgar-Jones — who stars on Hulu's breakout 2020 hit "Normal People" — bears a striking resemblance to Oscar winner Anne Hathaway early in her career.

_

"The O.C." actress Rachel Bilson seems to have a mini-me — none other than fashion model Kaia Gerber! Aside from their wavy brown locks, the two celebs share similar face shapes, eyes and lips.

_

Jamie Dornan should be first in line for the lead role if there's ever a biopic about Sweden's Prince Carl Philip, Duke of Värmland.

_

Looks like "The Property Brothers" could add a triplet to the mix! Twins Jonathan and Drew Scott have always been told they have a celebrity look-alike, and it's none other than Harry Connick Jr.! Harry even had them stop by his show in December 2016 where the brothers posed for a fake family Christmas photo.

_

Though there are nearly 20 years between the two, fans have noticed an uncanny resemblance between "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Kyle Richards and country crooner Kacey Musgraves.

_

"Who's that new girl?" No, it's not Jess. It's actually Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel. (Duh!)

_

The resemblance between funnyman Will Arnett and actor Patrick Wilson is no joke.

_

A lot of people used to get Amy Adams and Isla Fisher confused on the regular before they became two of Hollywood's hottest stars. But we don't really see it, aside from their red hair?

_

From their eyes to their smiles to their face shapes, actresses Kathryn Hahn and Ana Gasteyer are spitting images of one another. "Every single day I probably get a compliment for her, and every single day she gets a compliment for me," Ana told People magazine in 2019. In the same interview, she said she once met music star Kenny G, who thought she was Kathryn! Ana, however, didn't have the heart to tell the musician the truth. "It's like correcting someone on your name, you just don't want to make them feel bad for being excited," she said.

_

Robby Hayes has popped up on several "The Bachelor" franchises from JoJo Fletcher's season of "The Bachelorette" to "Bachelor in Paradise," plus he more recently can be seen on MTV's "Siesta Key." But did you ever notice that he looks a lot like a certain comedic actor? The reality star shares features with Will Forte.

_

As everyone binged the second season of "You," many noticed that the actress Victoria Pedretti, who plays Love Quinn on the twisty show, shares some similarities with one of our other favorite small screen stars: Hilary Duff!

_

Lea Michele and Idina Menzel don't just share backgrounds on Broadway and killer singing skills. Many fans think they also share facial features. The "Frozen" actress even played the mother of Lea's "Glee" alter ego on the hit FOX show!

_

Hunky Brit Henry Cavill has a French doppelgänger just four years his junior! "Outlander" actor Stanley Weber is a dead ringer for the "Man of Steel" stunner, oui?

_

Though there's a 13-year age gap between them, Miranda Kerr's baby face looks very similar to actress-singer Dove Cameron's! The supermodel and the Disney star share a similar eye shape, nose and pout. Not shown: Their identicle dimples!

_

The brown coifs… the scruffy stubble… the handsome good looks… is there anything Richard Madden and Gus Kenworthy don't share?! The "Bodyguard" actor and the Olympic medal-winning freestyle skier could definitely pass as brothers!

_

Though you wouldn't immediately realize it, Tiffany Thiessen and Alexandra Daddario have a very similar look! The "Saved By the Bell" alum and the "Baywatch" beauty not only have very similar coloring but the same striking light eyes and a similar mouth.

_

Lucy Hale and Sarah Hyland are true doppelgängers. In fact, the two actresses look so much alike that Lucy herself said they could past for sisters. The "Pretty Little Liars" star posted this selfie on Instagram in 2018 with the caption, "Anyone tryin to cast some sisters?"

_

Who knew these two looked so similar? Haylie Duff and former reality TV star Danielle Jonas, who's married to music star Kevin Jonas, are another pair of celebrities who look like twins. Aside from their different hair colors, these stars look identical.

_

Ever watched Bravo's "Southern Charm" and wondered who Kathryn Dennis reminded you of? Well, we here at Wonderwall.com figured it out — a young Emma Stone! The fiery redheaded reality star shares many facial similarities with the A-list actress in addition to having the same hair color.

_

"Slow Hands" hitmaker Niall Horan and "Downton Abbey" actor Allen Leech could be brothers! In September 2019, the actor dropped by "The Late Late Show with James Corden" and talked about the comparison. "Listen, it's very flattering to me. I'm 38, he's 26," Allen told James. From their hair color to their face shapes to their eyes — these two Irishmen look incredibly similar.

_

Antoni Porowski and John Mayer looks like brothers! The "Queer Eye" star and the musician have the same brunette locks, chiseled chins and distinct noses. Antoni even poked fun at their resemblance on social media, re-posting side-by-side black-and-white photos on his Instagram Story, as captured by People magazine.

_

One-time "The Bachelorette" star JoJo Fletcher found love on Season 12 of the show, and we found ourselves wondering which celebrity she reminded us of! The answer? Isla Fisher! Both beauties have almost the same eyes and smile!

_

Ashton Kutcher's wife, Mila Kunis, had to get a side-by-side comparison of her husband and equally hunky "Bachelor in Paradise" contestant Jared Haibon. "I'm trying to figure out why mila is making me take this picture @ashleyiaco who are you? And who is this guy?" Kutcher wrote on Twitter in 2015 when he shared the snapshot. But "BiP" contestant Ashley Iaconetti (who's now dating Jared) was the first to notice their similarly chiseled cheekbones and jaws. On the show, she said Jared looked like a mix between Ashton and Joe Jonas.

_

"Riverdale" fans set Twitter ablaze after realizing star Lili Reinhart bears an uncanny resemblance to the late Brittany Murphy. Though the ladies have different eye colors, their face shape, as well as their noses and mouths, are pretty much identical.

_

Actress-director Elizabeth Banks and "Modern Family" alum Julie Bowen share more than just their blonde updos — the celebrities share similar face shapes, eyes and smiles!

_

We're shocked Hollywood hasn't tapped Amanda Peet and Lake Bell to play sisters yet! The two actresses might have different eye colors, but their hair and facial features are super-similar.

_

Can you say sisters? Actresses Courteney Cox and Demi Moore look like twins in this picture. In 2019, Demi shared the 2016 pic on Instagram with the caption, "Who's who 👯‍♀️." From their dark, long locks to their thick-rimmed black specs, these two made us do a double take.

_

Both Elijah Wood and Daniel Radcliffe have starred in iconic franchises, but the actors have even more in common — they look like brothers! Seriously, take a look at their face shapes, eyes, ears, noses and mouths! It makes us wonder how we never noticed this before!

_

They're both funny guys, and the similarities don't end there! In April 2018, Zach Braff realized just how much he and pal Dax Shepard look alike and tweeted a photo of the duo after using the FaceSwap tool — which resulted in a nearly identical pic!

_

Hollywood took notice of this pair of look-alikes and cast them as mother and daughter on "Once Upon a Time," but it still blows our mind just how similar Ginnifer Goodwin and Jennifer Morrison look! They're almost like twins in an alternate universe — with the same name (spelled differently) and different hair colors!

_

Keira Knightley and Natalie Portman share more than just acting talent! While on "The Late Late Show with James Corden" in 2018, "Love Actually" actress Keira dished on her celebrity look-alikes. "Well, I've been chased through an airport as Natalie Portman," she said. "I mean, [I get] Natalie Portman a lot." From their eyes to their face shapes, the resemblance is uncanny.

_

These two have to be related! Sienna Miller's doppelgänger is fellow British celebrity Mollie King! Mollie, a member of music group The Saturdays, is six years younger than Sienna, but the two could easily pass for twins with their megawatt matching smiles.

_

Are we seeing double? Both of these hunks have starred on popular, binge-worthy shows, and though they weren't on the same network, they look like they came straight out of the same family! "Lost" star Josh Holloway and "Game of Thrones" star Nikolaj Coster-Waldau both are known to sport the same sexy stubble and have the same piercing light eyes.

_

"Girls" alum Allison Williams and "13 Going on 30" actress Christa B. Allen could certainly pass for sisters if not doppelgängers! The brunettes share similar face shapes, lips, noses and jawlines.

_

Alicia Silverstone has a celebrity doppelgänger in Hollywood — "Psych" actress Maggie Lawson! There's a four-year age difference between the actresses, but the blondes share very similar eyes, eyebrows and mouth shapes.

_

Eva Mendes shares a likeness with model Ashley Graham — can you see it?

_

Reality stars separated at birth! Cheryl Burke of "Dancing With the Stars" fame looks a lot like "The Real Housewives of Orange County" star Kelly Dodd! Both ladies have nearly identical smiles — and the same killer cheekbones!

_

We don't really see it, but "Harry Potter" actor Rupert Grint and singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran are constantly compared looks-wise. While on "The Late Late Show with James Corden" in 2017, Rupert admitted how he is often mistaken for his fellow redhead and Englishman. "If someone stops me, it could go either way — I could be Ed or I could be me," he said.

_

Another set of celeb lookalikes you've got to see to believe? Blake Lively and Kesha! The two definitely have something in common aside from their blonde locks! We think it's all in the eyes for these two!

_

We never realized how much Row Lowe and Ian Somerhalder looked alike! A younger Rob, pictured here in 2004, looks a whole lot like the "Vampire Diaries" alum — both share the piercing blue eyes that contrast with their dark hair and both have an amazingly impressive jawline!

_

The angular jaw… the facial hair… the dark, wavy hair… the similarities are endless. "The Disaster Artist" actor James Franco and "Insurgent" star Theo James could be brothers!

_

These two actors are close pals in real life, but we wonder if they've ever realized how similar they look! Liam Neeson has 10 years on buddy Ralph Fiennes, but their eyes are so similar that it's hard to tell.

_

They were once inseparable besties — even sharing a cover of Vogue in March 2015 — so it's not a huge surprise that Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss even started to look alike. Both tall blondes once rocked short platinum hair, which showed off their similar cheekbones, noses and mouths. There's no denying the two have a very similar look, even if they're mysteriously no longer BFFs.

BDAY LOVE

Congressman's abrupt exit from the House will likely to have negative impact on Lauren Boebert's electability

by Mark Gray Wonderwall Mar. 18, 2024March 18, 2024

By Mark Gray 5:00pm PDT, Mar 18, 2024

_

Colorado Republican Ken Buck surprised his colleagues when he announced he'd be leaving the House of Representatives on March 22.

The decision not only cuts into Republicans' already razor-thin majority in the House — it could also have a detrimental effect on Lauren Boebert's campaign to replace him. The controversial congresswoman is leaving Colorado's District 3, her very competitive current district, and trying to take over Ken's more Republican-friendly district, District 4. However, his departure means a special election will occur on June 25 — which Lauren can't be a part of unless she leaves her current seat, which would then trigger another special election in District 3. In Colorado's District 4, the incumbent — who will serve from June through December — has traditionally held a huge advantage. Lauren has said she will not leave her current congressional seat to take part in the special election, meaning she won't be the incumbent in November's general election.

"Ken Buck's announcement yesterday was a gift to the uniparty," she wrote on X on March 13. "The establishment concocted a swampy backroom deal to try to rig an election… Forcing an unnecessary Special Election on the same day as the Primary Election will confuse voters, result in a lameduck Congressman on day one, and leave the 4th District with no representation for more than three months. The 4th District deserves better."

"I will not further imperil the already very slim House Republican majority by resigning my current seat and will continue to deliver on my constituents' priorities while also working hard to earn the votes of the people of Colorado's 4th District who have made clear they are hungry for a real conservative," she added.

Keep reading to learn how Ken and other politically-minded folks are reacting to his impending departure and the impact it has on Lauren's campaign…

"It is the worst year of the nine years and three months that I've been in Congress and having talked to former members, it's the worst year in 40, 50 years to be in Congress. But I'm leaving because I think there's a job to do out there," Ken Buck told CNN of his decision to leave Congress next week. "This place has just devolved into this bickering and nonsense and not really doing the job for the American people."

While chatting with reporters on Wednesday, he said, "This place just keeps going downhill, and I don't need to spend my time here. We've taken impeachment and we've made it a social media issue as opposed to a constitutional concept. Mike Johnson's ability to talk me into staying here, is going to be as successful as his ability of talking to me into unconstitutional impeachments."

"Thank you @RepKenBuck for your unwavering support of my bills to end forced arbitration/NDAs for work sexual misconduct. I will miss u but get why u r resigning: 'We have to have better candidates up and down the ballot, not just President, but Senate, House, local offices.' Yep." —Gretchen Carlson

_

"Please sign the discharge petition for aid to Ukraine before you leave, @RepKenBuck" —"The View" co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin

_

"By resigning early, Ken Buck is giving an advantage to anyone but Lauren Boebert. She cannot run in the special election since she already occupies a seat, so another person will be elected to serve out the term, and it won't be Lauren. Smart" —Former Rep. Adam Kinzinger

"We had another member of Congress resign today. So now I'll be told, 'Chip, we only have a one-seat majority or two-seat majority.' I don't even know what it is anymore. Let me ask the question, does it matter? In 2018, we had the House, we had the Senate, we had the White House, and we had a bigger majority than we have today, and we utterly failed to secure the border. Totally dropped the ball. Didn't do it. Why? I remember why! They would say, 'Chip, we don't have 60 votes in the Senate.' Let me be very clear to the American people back home, there is always an excuse for why those who campaign to come to this town fail to deliver. Always." —Rep. Chip Roy

_

"Ken 'knuck' if you Buck is at it again! He's decided to throw the next week putting Boebert at a disadvantage and shrinking the fragile republican house majority, even more! This announcement just happened to take place on the same day that his judiciary chairman, Jim Jordan, who doesn't have a bar card, decided to disrespect former prosecutor Buck in committee. The one thing that no one is discussing that I think is a possibility is a no labels run from him. He said on CNN, people don't like either candidate and he wants better candidates… that's not really an explanation to leave early unless you've been courted by no labels." —Rep. Jasmine Crockett

_

Ken Buck's resignation is "kind of to screw Lauren Boebert," Steve Bannon said on his podcast.

_

"Throughout his time in Congress, @RepKenBuck has been independent-minded and consistent in his convictions. Wishing him the best as he soon embarks on a new chapter in his life of service." —Rep. Ted Lieu

_

"Republican lawmakers with a conscience and a commitment to our Constitutional Republic resign rather than join liars and seditious cowards" —Mia Farrow

_

"And she has the gall to say no one is interested in the race for #CO03 anymore now that's she's carpetbagged to #CO04. Let's show her it's not always about her." —District 3 Congressional candidate Adam Frisch

_

"I was surprised by Ken's announcement. I look forward to talking to him about that. I didn't know" —House Speaker Mike Johnson

_

"As of today, Speaker Mike Johnson is two bad colds away from having to reach across the aisle to get anything done, such as keep the government open and functioning. A vote on funding 70% of the federal government is just days away. As for [Ken] Buck, the representative from Colorado's eastern plains, is a rare Republican indeed. He didn't bend the knee to Donald Trump. What will the American electorate think about all this chaos? Come November, the current Republican House majority could become the minority real quick." —Dan Rather

_

Rep. Pat Fallon told NBC of Ken Bucks's exit, "[It's] very surprising. Very disturbing. Very alarming. Very concerning."

_

–"I am really going to miss my friend @RepKenBuck in Congress. We worked closely together on many issues including antitrust bills, including preserving local newspapers and breaking up monopolies, as well as banning members of Congress from trading stocks. He believed in preserving our democracy and respecting our elections – and said so, against his party. While there was plenty we disagreed on, it was a true pleasure to work with him and witness his integrity and leadership. Thank you, Ken!" —Rep. Pramila Jayapal

Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022, her eldest son became King Charles III — and his eldest son, Prince William, moved up the line of succession to take his place as the new Prince of Wales.

William's wife, the former Kate Middleton, also took on an elevated new moniker: Catherine, Princess of Wales — a title that had not been used since William's late mother, Princess Diana, was alive.

Check out the best photos of Kate from her first year as Britain's new Princess of Wales…

Princess Kate — wearing a Jenny Packham gown with Queen Mary's Lover's Knot Tiara — attended a State Banquet at Buckingham Palace in London on Nov. 22, 2022, at the start of the president's of South Africa's two-day visit. It was the first state visit hosted with King Charles III as monarch.

The most famous people with autism

by Wonderwall.com Editors Wonderwall Mar. 18, 2024March 18, 2024

By Wonderwall.com Editors 1:00pm PDT, Mar 18, 2024

_

According to the CDC, one in 36 children in America has some form of autism spectrum disorder, an umbrella term for a wide-ranging group of neurodevelopmental disorders including Asperger's syndrome. These can alter how people interact socially, communicate, learn and behave. But new research has shown the same differences in brain function often help people excel in creative fields. It should come as no surprise, then, that the entertainment world is full of folks who've been diagnosed with some form of autism.

Tallulah Willis — one of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore's three daughters — has autism and was diagnosed at 29, she revealed in a March 2024 social media post.

She shared a video of herself on Instagram as a young girl at a red carpet event with her movie star father. In the clip, Tallulah can be seen rubbing his head and playing with his ear as Bruce does an interview. "Tell me you're autistic without telling me you're autistic " she captioned the post.

A commenter asked if she was diagnosed as a kid. "Actually this is the first time I've ever publicly shared my diagnosis. Found out this summer and it's changed my life," Tallulah — who called herself "neurospicy" in another comment — replied.

Sir Anthony Hopkins, a two-time Oscar winner whose accolades also include four BAFTA Awards and two Emmys, told the CBC's Tom Power in 2020 that he sees his Asperger's syndrome as "a gift."

Asked about the impact his diagnosis has had on his acting, Anthony replied: "It doesn't affect me — I am obsessive. It's a great gift, actually. I was a bit slow as a school kid, and so I made up for it by working hard, and I became, you know, a successful actor."

He said his "obsessiveness about the details" leads him to "work and work and work on the script and I learn every single line," later adding, "… I'm an absent-minded professor. I forget things, and I get obsessed with stupid details."

The actor, producer and director first went public with his diagnosis in a 2017 interview with The Desert Sun.

While hosting "Saturday Night Live" in 2021, billionaire Tesla CEO Elon Musk said he was "the first person with Asperger's to host 'SNL' … or at least the first to admit it." Viewers on social media later noted Dan Aykroyd had shared that he was diagnosed with Asperger's in the '80s and hosted the show in 2003. But it was among Elon's first open discussions about his diagnosis, which he delved into in more detail in a 2022 TED Talk.

In the TED chat, the billionaire owner of social media platform X, formerly Twitter, recalled being bullied as a child for what seemed to be odd behavior.

"Social cues were not intuitive, so I was just very bookish," he explained. "Others could intuitively understand what was meant by something. I would take something very literally, as if the words that were spoken were exactly what they meant. But that turned out to be wrong." Elon added, "[People are] not simply saying exactly what they mean. There are all sorts of other things that are meant. It took me a while to figure that out."

Singer Susan Boyle, who rose to fame on "Britain's Got Talent" in 2009, revealed in 2013 that she'd been diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome one year earlier.

Having felt isolated as a child and aware she was somehow different than her peers, she told The Guardian her diagnosis came as "a relief."

Now, she sees how it's helped motivate her to succeed.

"Asperger's doesn't define me," said the star. "It's a condition that I have to live with and work through, but I feel more relaxed about myself. People will have a greater understanding of who I am and why I do the things I do."

_

Author, entrepreneur and former Playboy model Holly Madison opened up about her autism diagnosis on a December 2023 episode of the "Talking to Death" podcast.

"The doctor told me that I have high executive functioning, which means I can pretty much go about my life and do things 'normally,'" Holly said. "I think because I'm more quiet, I've only recently learned to make eye contact. I'm often in my own thoughts, things like that, so people take that as offensive. … I'm just not on the same social wavelength as other people but don't take it personally. So I like being able to explain that."

Holly added, "I also don't really have a gauge for when other people are gonna be done speaking so I tend to interrupt a lot, which p***** people off."

So what's Holly's message for others about living with autism?

"That everybody operates differently and [when] interacting with anybody," she said. "Just have a little bit of patience because you don't know what they're dealing with or what their level of social function is."

_

Daryl Hannah has said she sees her Asperger's syndrome as simply part of "the way I have always been," telling Australia's Women's Weekly in 2015 that she was diagnosed as a child.

"I was a little odd and incredibly introverted and withdrawn when I was young," the "Splash" star recalled. "My shyness was probably made worse because of my condition. I'd come home from school and cry myself to sleep. Right from an early age, I'd rock myself back and forth because it helped calm me down."

Even after her acting career took off in the '80s, Daryl continued to struggle with the public-facing aspects of her work.

"I'm fine one-on-one but in larger groups I lose my sense of self," she explained. "Big events are always uncomfortable for me and I don't know if I will ever grow out of it. I try to keep those feelings under control but it takes a lot of focus and concentration, and energy." Added the star, "These days I have little tricks that I do to help me cope. As long as I remember to do them, then I am OK."

_

"Ghostbusters" star Dan Aykroyd has credited his idea for the now-iconic '80s ghost-hunting flick with his Asperger's diagnosis.

"I also have Asperger's but I can manage it," he told DailyMail.com in 2013. "It wasn't diagnosed until the early '80s when my wife persuaded me to see a doctor. One of my symptoms included my obsession with ghosts and law enforcement — I carry around a police badge with me, for example. I became obsessed by Hans Holzer, the greatest ghost hunter ever. That's when the idea of my film 'Ghostbusters' was born."

In her 2019 Netflix special "Growing," Amy Schumer revealed that husband Chris Fischer, a chef, had recently been diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder. As Amy said on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" in April 2022, the diagnosis was like Chris had been given "a superpower."

"All of his behavior is kind of excused now. If someone's telling a long, boring story, he will straight up just walk away. He'll just wander away, and I'm just still stuck there," she joked on the show.

In the wake of his diagnosis, Amy has often encouraged fans to get tested if they suspect they could benefit from knowing.

"It's really given us so many helpful tools," she told Ellen. "I think it's a good thing for people to check it out and get tested so you don't spend your whole life feeling like you're bad or wrong…"

According to researchers at UCLA Health, "autism is highly inheritable." Amy believes son Gene could be like his dad.

"I think the statistics are pretty strong toward he will most likely have autism," the comic told Chelsea Handler in a 2022 appearance on the "Dear Chelsea" podcast. "Parents have different journeys with this. Having a child with severe autism is beyond my imagination difficult. But if Gene does wind up having ASD, I'm not looking for the signs in a way that are upsetting, I'm not hoping either way. … You just want your kids to be healthy and happy."

_

Comedian Hannah Gadsby wrote extensively about their autism spectrum disorder diagnosis in the New York Times bestseller "Ten Steps to Nannette: A Memoir Situation."

"For a long time, I worried that I'd been misdiagnosed," Hannah recalls in the book. "It was difficult to believe that I wasn't entirely to blame for my life being such a painful struggle, because I was so used to assuming I was a bad person. It took me a long time to get brave enough to simply share my diagnosis."

Elsewhere in the memoir, Hannah writes: "Ever since I can remember, my thoughts have been plagued by a sense that I was a little out of whack, as if belonging was beyond me."

The author goes on to detail how autism affects the way thoughts get processed. "I have never managed to develop a reliable system to file and separate my thoughts into individual think pieces, and so I am utterly incapable of having one thought without at least another hundred coming along for the ride."

_

"I'm on the spectrum and I'm in recovery or whatever…," singer-songwriter Sia said on a May 2023 episode of "Rob Has a Podcast." She went on to emphasize the importance of sharing "our deepest, darkest, most shameful secrets" so we can finally "go out in the world" and operate "as humans."

Though she didn't elaborate on her diagnosis, Sia, who was 47 at the time of the interview, suggested she'd recently been diagnosed.

"For 45 years, I was like, 'I've got to go put my human suit on,' and only in the last two years have I become fully, fully myself," she said.

_

Climate activist Greta Thunberg has also spoken out about the positive aspects of living with Asperger's syndrome.

"When haters go after your looks and differences, it means they have nowhere left to go. And then you know you're winning!" the Swedish star wrote on Twitter in 2019. "I have Aspergers and that means I'm sometimes a bit different from the norm. And — given the right circumstances — being different is a superpower."

Greta has also said her differences contributed to the severe depression and eating disorder she developed at age 11.

Asked by The Guardian in 2019 why she was so unhappy as a child, Greta replied: "I couldn't wrap my head around the fact that people didn't seem to care about anything, that everyone just cared about themselves rather than everything that was happening with the world. And being an oversensitive child with autism, it was definitely something I thought about a lot, and it made me sad."

_

Courtney Love has said she was diagnosed with autism as a child after struggling with speech from an early age.

"My first visit to a psychiatrist was when I was, like, 3. Observational therapy. You name it, I've been there," she told Rolling Stone in 1994.

The Hole frontwoman also wrote about her diagnosis at age 9 in her autobiography, "Courtney Love: The Real Story."

_

"Community" creator Dan Harmon was researching his TV character Abed when he recognized some of Abed's Asperger's symptoms were more than a little familiar. "I started looking up these symptoms just to know what they are," he said on Kevin Pollack's podcast in 2011. "And the more I looked them up, the more familiar they started to seem."

Eventually, Dan went to see a doctor, he said, and learned that there's a whole spectrum of disorders related to autism. He has said he concluded he has Asperger's syndrome, though it's unclear if he was formally diagnosed by the doctor he met with.

_

The British model and TV personality Christine McGuinness was diagnosed with autism in 2021 at 33. By that time, she'd long struggled with issues ranging from an eating disorder to hypersensitivity to sound and smell to sexual assault.

"It's helped me understand myself a lot more. I'm trying to not be so hard on myself," she said of her diagnosis in the 2023 BBC documentary "Unmasking My Autism," which focuses on how and why autistic women and girls have historically been under-diagnosed.

"I experienced [sexual assault] and I didn't speak up, and I wonder if I never said it because I was autistic," she said in the documentary. "Was it me? Would a neurotypical woman have said something? Is it my fault? How did I find myself there? All of those questions."

Christine's three children have also been diagnosed with autism.

Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022, her eldest son became King Charles III — and his wife became Queen Camilla. Join us as we look back at some of the best photos from the first year of Charles's reign, starting with this shot…

Britain's most senior royals — Queen Camilla, King Charles III, Prince William and Princess Kate — put on a united front as they posed together ahead of the annual Diplomatic Reception in the 1844 Room at Buckingham Palace in London on Dec. 5, 2023.

Camilla dazzled in the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara while Kate sparkled in the Queen Mary's Lover's Knot Tiara and a pink sequined gown by Jenny Packham.

Unbothered?

King Charles III was all smiles when he visited the Heriot-Watt University Dubai Campus during the COP28 climate change summit on Nov. 30, 2023.

Charles' jolly appearance came one day after Piers Morgan claimed, TMZ reported, that the monarch — and Princess Kate — had been named in the Dutch translation of new book "Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy's Fight for Survival" as two "royal racists" who questioned how dark his grandchildren's skin tone might be when son Prince Harry started a family with Duchess Meghan, who's biracial. Piers further said he didn't believe either was racist.

The book's author, longtime royals reporter Omid Scobie, however, denied revealing the identity of the two people his sources said expressed skin color concerns amid claims of unconscious bias within the royal family. "I never submitted a book that had those names in it," Omid said on British breakfast show "This Morning."

On Oct. 18, 2023, Queen Camilla made her debut in the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara, an iconic headpiece that was originally gifted to Queen Mary as a wedding present in 1893. Queen Mary, in turn, gifted the piece to Queen Elizabeth II as a wedding present when she married Prince Philip in 1947. (Elizabeth reportedly referred to the crown as "Granny's tiara.")

Camilla also donned diamond drop-earrings, plus a diamond necklace and matching bracelet that her late mother-in-law received as 21st birthday presents from the then-prime minister of South Africa.

She chose the special pieces for a ceremonial dinner at Mansion House that she attended with King Charles III to mark their first official visit to the City of London following their coronation.

On Dec. 20, 2022, the Bank of England unveiled new banknotes featuring King Charles III that will begin to replace the country's paper currency that featured the face of his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II. According to the Bank of England, the new money will enter circulation by mid-2024 and currency featuring both sovereigns will be in circulation at the same time. "The new banknotes will only be printed to replace those that are worn and to meet any overall increase in demand for banknotes. Our approach is in line with guidance from the Royal Household, to minimise the environmental and financial impact of this change," the Bank explained. The four new designs — for £5, £10, £20 and £50 notes — feature a main portrait of Charles on the front and a smaller cameo inside a see-through security window. Other famous Brits on the U.K.'s money include former Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill, author Jane Austen, painter J.M.W. Turner and mathematician Alan Turing, People magazine reported. Though British and English monarchs' faces have appeared on coins for more than 1,000 years, Charles is only the second sovereign to appear on a Bank of England paper note; his mother, the first, made her paper money debut in 1960.

He also thanked his spouse and promised to continue the same financial arrangement his mother had with the government. "In all this, I am profoundly encouraged by the constant support of my beloved wife," Charles said.

He also spoke directly to his "darling Mama," saying, "Thank you. May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest." Charles also confirmed that his "darling wife" Camilla had become his Queen Consort, and announced that eldest son and heir Prince William now holds Charles's previous titles including Duke of Cornwall and Prince of Wales, making daughter-in-law Kate Middleton the new Princess of Wales — the first woman to hold the title since his first wife, the late Princess Diana. Despite their fractured relationship, Charles also mentioned his younger son and his wife, telling his subjects, "I want also to express my love for Harry and Meghan as they continue to build their lives overseas."

All of Queen Camilla's tiaras: Pictures

Queen Camilla stepped out in the late Queen Elizabeth II's Burmese Ruby Tiara for the first time in November 2023. The occasion was a state banquet at Buckingham Palace honoring South Korea's President Yoon Suk Yeol and first lady Kim Keon Hee. It was another in a series of memorable tiara moments for Camilla, who's worn a slew of gorgeous, glittering diadems since she married Prince Charles, now King Charles III, in 2005.

We're taking a look back at all the tiaras Queen Camilla's worn since she joined the British royal family, starting with this sparkler…

The Burmese Ruby tiara was commissioned by Queen Elizabeth II in the 1970s, but its royal origins date back much further.

Keep reading for a closer look, plus more details on the Burmese Ruby Tiara, then keep reading to see all the other tiaras Camilla's worn through the years…

Clad in a red velvet gown by Fiona Clare and the late Queen Elizabeth II's Burmese Ruby Tiara, Queen Camilla arrived at a state banquet for South Korea's President Yoon Suk Yeol and his wife Kim Keon Hee at Buckingham Palace in London in November 2023.

Queen Elizabeth II commissioned the Burmese Ruby Tiara in 1973. It was created by the House of Garrard and features rubies gifted from a Burmese prince to the late queen in honor of her 1947 marriage to Prince Philip.

According to The Court Jeweller, "The gift included precisely 96 rubies, all of which are now set in the tiara. The Burmese people believe that rubies help protect the wearer from the 96 diseases that can afflict the human body, and they definitely wanted to ensure that Elizabeth remained hale and hearty. The rubies and diamonds in the tiara were set in a series of rose motifs, and if you know your English history, you'll recognize a heraldic rose that combines white and red petals as the Tudor rose."

Queen Camilla joined King Charles III at Westminster Palace for the State Opening of Parliament in London in November 2023 — the first state opening of Parliament of Charles's reign.

Camilla marked the milestone by wearing the George IV State Diadem for the very first time. She also re-wore her Bruce Oldfield-designed coronation gown, perhaps as a nod to the king's long-held interest in protecting the environment.

Also known as the Diamond Diadem, the headpiece has been in the British royal family since 1820. Queen Elizabeth II wore the sparkler for the first time in 1952, donning it for the first State Opening of Parliament of her reign. She wore it again to her coronation in 1953.

Keep reading for a closer look, plus more details on the famous diadem's 1,333 diamonds…

According to the Royal Collection Trust, the Diamond Diadem features "a silver and gold-lined diadem with an openwork frame set transparent with diamonds; narrow band edged with pearls, surmounted by four crosses-pattée, the front cross set with a pale yellow brilliant, and four sprays representing the national emblems of England, Ireland and Scotland; roses, shamrocks and thistles."

Among its 1,333 diamonds is "a four-carat pale yellow brilliant in the centre of the front cross," per the trust.

Queen Camilla attended a dinner at Mansion House in London to recognize the work of the City of London civic institutions and Livery Companies, the city's ancient and modern trade guilds, in October 2023.

It was the first time she wore the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara.

Originally created as a wedding gift for the future Queen Mary in honor of her marriage to the future King George V in 1893, the tiara was purchased from Garrard & Co. by a "committee of young women, led by Lady Eva Greville, who raised money for its creation via subscription," according to The Court Jeweller, which notes the committee's moniker became the tiara's namesake.

"The tiara, which features festoon and fleur-de-lis designs, was made of diamonds set in silver and gold, and the original 1893 version was topped by fourteen pearls," according to the outlet.

The pieces, along with matching earrings, were given to Queen Elizabeth II in 1947 as wedding gifts from her father, King George VI. Along with a coordinating bracelet that was added in the 1960s, the collection is known as the King George VI Victorian Suite.

The Delhi Durbar Tiara appeared in the "Diamonds: A Jubilee Celebration" exhibition in London in June 2012.

Queen Mary had the tiara created in 1911 for a celebration marking the coronation of King George V and Queen Mary as Emperor and Empress of India. In 1946, she gave it to Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, who then left it to her daughter, Queen Elizabeth II. Elizabeth loaned it to Queen Camilla, then Duchess Camilla, in 2005 along with the Greville Tiara and the Teck Crescent Tiara.

According to The Crown Jeweller, "[Mary] had one of her other sparklers, the Boucheron Loop Tiara, dismantled so that the diamonds could be used by Garrard in 1911 to create this piece. Originally, the tiara was also topped by several pear-shaped gems from the Cambridge emerald cache."

As of 2023, Camilla had yet to don the Teck Crescent Tiara in public, the outlet noted.

Rockers who shot to fame in the 2000s: What they look like now

by Megan Riedlinger Wonderwall Mar. 17, 2024March 17, 2024

By Megan Riedlinger 3:12pm PDT, Mar 17, 2024

_

We've rounded up a list of our favorite rockers of the 2000s to find out what they're up to — and what they look like — these days.

Let's get started…

Creed's sophomore album, "Human Clay," debuted in 1999 and helped music fans enter a new century with hits like "Higher" and "With Arms Wide Open" — the latter of which won the band — fronted by Scott Stapp — a Grammy for best rock song. "Human Clay" became one of the most successful albums in U.S. history after selling 11.5 million copies domestically.

Scott Stapp stayed busy after Creed hit it big. He was also the singer in a band founded in 2011, Art of Anarchy, and put out three solo albums over the years.

In July 2023, Scott had a very exciting announcement for Creed fans: In 2024, the band will embark on the "Summer of '99" cruise where they'll perform alongside other rockers of the era like 3 Doors Down, Buckcherry, Tonic, Vertical Horizon and more.

In the mid-2010s, Scott made headlines after enduring a devastating breakdown as he struggled with drug abuse and bipolar disorder. Thankfully, he's recovered and is now healthy and sober. He's been married twice — first to Hillaree Burns, with whom he shares son Jagger. He then wed 2004's Miss New York USA Jaclyn Nesheiwat in 2006. They share a daughter and two sons.

You couldn't turn on the radio without hearing a Nickelback tune in the aughts. The Canadian band had the bestselling song of the decade with "How You Remind Me" and came in seventh on Billboard's albums of the decade chart. Ever wonder what lead singer Chad Kroeger is doing today? Let's find out…

Nickelback released their most recent album in 2022, "Get Rollin'," and were the subject of a documentary in 2023, "Hate to Love: Nickelback." Aside from continuing to work with his band, frontman Chad Kroeger has produced music for other artists like Default and Bo Bice and has ventured out to do some solo work. Most notably, he was featured on Santana's 2002 song "Why Don't You & I." He also lent his voice to the "Spider-Man" theme song, "Hero," that same year and collaborated with country crooner Travis Tritt in 2007. Chad's also carved out a successful career writing for other artists including Daughtry and Tim McGraw. He married fellow Canadian singer Avril Lavigne in 2013 after the two started working together on her fifth album. They split in 2015, and the singer has kept his private life quiet since then.

_

Fred Durst rose to fame with Limp Bizkit, the rock group that formed in 1994 and hit it big in 1999 with the release of their sophomore album, "Significant Other." In 2000 — the same year they were nominated for two Grammys — the success of tracks like "My Generation" and "Take a Look Around" (the theme song from "Mission: Impossible 2") off their third studio album took their careers to the next level.

_

After finding fame as a rap-rock music star, Fred Durst transitioned into acting and filmmaking. He's stepped both in front of and behind the camera for various projects including the 2006 movie "Population 436," acting alongside Jeremy Sisto, and 2007's "The Education of Charlie Banks," which he directed. He also wrote, directed and produced the 2019 John Travolta thriller "The Fanatic."

Fred went on to work with other artists in different musical genres, appearing on an Insane Clown Posse cover album and collaborating with Lil Wayne, Birdman and Kevin Rudolf on the track "Champions" in 2012. Fred reunited with Limp Bizkit in 2009 and in 2011 released the album "Gold Cobra." In 2021, they released their most recent album, "Still Sucks." Limp Bizkit has continued to tour too.

Fred, who's been divorced three times, is a father of two: He had daughter Adriana with his first wife in 1990 and son Dallas with an ex girlfriend in 2001. In 2022, he married for the fourth time, tying the knot with a woman named Arles.

_

The Killers wrote some great 2000s rock songs that have endured including "Mr. Brightside," "Somebody Told Me" and "Smile Like You Mean It" — all of which were featured on their 2004 album, "Hot Fuss." It sold 7 million copies worldwide and received five Grammy nominations, making lead singer Brandon Flowers and the rest of the crew major players in the music business. Let's see where Brandon is today…

_

The Killers' seventh and most recent album, "Pressure Machine," came out in 2021. In 2022, they released another single, "Boy," off an album expected to be released later in 2023. While continuing to make music with the band, frontman Brandon Flowers also made a name for himself outside of the group. He's released two solo albums in the last decade, "Flamingo" and "The Desired Effect," and has worked with artists like the late Avicii, New Order and Robbie Williams. The rocker has been married to Tana Mundkowsky since 2005. They live in Las Vegas with their three sons.

_

San Diego rock band blink-182 hit it big in the late '90s and saw their fame explode after they released 1999's "Enema of the State." The 2001 follow-up album "Take Off Your Pants and Jacket" helped solidify them as radio fixtures. Keep reading to see Travis Barker, Tom DeLonge and Mark Hoppus today…

_

Mark Hoppus never left blink-182, which in late 2022 announced that former singer-guitarist Tom DeLonge had joined the band, which then released their ninth studio album in October 2023, the same year they embarked on a world tour. While not performing with blink over the years, Mark produced music for band like New Found Glory and Motion City Soundtrack and dabbled in podcasting, a clothing line called Atticus and a shoe brand called Macbeth Footwear. He's been married to former MTV exec Skye Everly since 2000. The two share an adult son, Jack. In 2021, Mark revealed he was battling cancer — a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma — and later that year announced that he was cancer free. Find out about the other guys next…

_

Guitarist-vocalist Tom DeLonge had a rocky road with blink-182 after they found mainstream success. He quit in 2005 and started the band Angels and Airwaves, though he later reunited with blink in 2009 and put another album out in 2011, "Neighborhoods." He then left again in 2015 and was replaced with Alkaline Trio's Matt Skiba. He eventually returned to the group in 2022.

He co-founded Atticus Clothing and Macbeth Footwear with bandmate Mark Hoppus and started a company called Modlife, which was intended to help musicians monetize their portfolios; Kanye West, the White Stripes and Pearl Jam were among the bands that took advantage of its services. Perhaps the most fascinating part of Tom's life outside of blink is his website Strange Times, an endeavor devoted to discussing the existence of extraterrestrial life and paranormal activity. That helped inspire his 2013 children's book, "The Lonely Astronaut on Christmas Eve."

He launched To The Stars Inc., which produced a series for the History Channel called "Unidentified: Inside America's UFO Investigation" in 2019. That same year, Tom filed to divorce Jennifer Jenkins, whom he wed in 2001. They share daughter Ava and son Jonas. In 2021, he revealed he married his girlfriend of about two years, Rose-Marie Berryman.

_

Drummer Travis Barker played with blink-182 on and off over the years. His near-death experience in a 2008 plane crash sparked the group's 2009 reunion. Travis also produced music for other groups and even released a solo album, "Give the Drummer Some," in 2011 that featured Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Pharrell, Snoop Dogg and Kid Cudi, among other big names. Like his bandmates, he also started a clothing company, Famous Stars and Straps, and launched his own label, a division of Atlantic Records called LaSalle Records.

Travis had a quick marriage to Melissa Kennedy in 2002 (it lasted nine months) before moving on with Miss USA 1995 Shanna Moakler, whom he married in 2004. They had two kids: son Landon and daughter Alabama. The couple famously starred on a reality show, MTV's "Meet the Barkers," that ran from 2005 to 2006. The same year their show ended, Travis filed for divorce, but the couple reunited in 2007 before ultimately finalizing their split in 2008. Travis and Shanna reunited again in 2009 for the final time before going their separate ways. Travis was briefly romantically linked to pop star Rita Ora, but he's made far more headlines since he started seeing reality star Kourtney Kardashian in late 2020. The two married in 2022 and in 2023 welcomed son Rocky Thirteen Barker.

_

Papa Roach's 2000 album "Infest" — which featured their hit song "Last Resort" — was the 20th highest selling album that year. It went three-times platinum and even earned the group a Grammy nod for best new artist. So where is lead singer Jacoby Shaddix today?

_

Papa Roach released the compilation album "20/20" in 2020 and their 11th studio album, "Ego Trip," in 2022. Aside from maintaining his role as lead singer, Jacoby Shaddix has diversified his career by hosting MTV's "Scarred" in 2007 and launching his own clothing line, Lovers Are Lunatics. He shares three sons — Makaile, Jagger and Brixton — with wife Kelly, whom he married in 1997. They live in Sacramento, California.

_

2003's "Transatlanticism" catapulted Death Cab for Cutie to mainstream success. The album, which was actually the group's fourth, was a commercial and critical success and its follow-up, 2005's "Plans," solidified their music-star status by going platinum and earning them a Grammy nomination for best alternative music album as well as a nod for best pop performance by a duo or group with vocals for "I Will Follow You Into the Dark." What's lead singer Ben Gibbard doing today?

_

Death Cab for Cutie continues to put out new music. Their latest, "Asphalt Meadows," came out in 2022 and is their 10th studio album. Singer Ben Gibbard released a solo album, "Former Lives," in 2012 and has dabbled in acting, enjoying a small role in 2009's "Brief Interviews with Hideous Men" alongside John Krasinski. He kept busy at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic by livestreaming concerts from his home. He was married to actress-singer Zooey Deschanel from 2009 to 2011. He married Rachel Demy, a photographer and tour manager, in 2016.

_

"All Killer No Filler" hit record store shelves in 2001. The debut album from Canadian pop-rock band Sum 41 included songs like "Fat Lip," "In Too Deep" and "Motivation" — all of which received major airplay as the album made its way to platinum-selling status in the States. Singer Deryck Whibley also made a name for himself in the '00s dating Paris Hilton in 2003. So where is the rocker now?

_

Sum 41 is wrapping it up!

The group announced their March 2024 double album "Heaven :x: Hell" will be their last. A tour that stretches through 2024 will also be their last, culminating in their final performance as a band in Toronto in January 2025.

Frontman Deryck Whibley has worked with other artists over the years — he played guitar and sang backing vocals on Tommy Lee's "Tommyland: The Ride" and Iggy Pop's "A Million in Prizes: The Anthology," both in 2005. In 2007, he produced "The Best Damn Thing" for then-wife Avril Lavigne and more recently co-wrote songs for 5 Seconds of Summer. Deryck and Avril split in 2009. He's been married to model Ariana Cooper — with whom he welcomed son Lydon Igby in 2020 and daughter Quentin Arlo in 2023 — since 2015.

_

"The Young and the Hopeless" came out in 2002, launching Good Charlotte's career. The band's singles "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous," "The Anthem" and "Girls & Boys" were all massive hits that helped the album go triple platinum. The band's vocalists, twins Benji Madden and Joel Madden, also gained more notoriety by dating famous faces. So what are the Madden twins up to now?

_

Benji Madden and Joel Madden still work side by side in Good Charlotte, which released another album, "Generation Rx," in 2018. They also formed the pop-rock group The Madden Brothers in 2011 and released the single "We Are Done" in 2014. The twins started their own music company, MDDN, and served as coaches on "The Voice Australia" and "The Voice Kids Australia." They even launched an apparel line, MADE Clothing (later called DCMA Collective), with brother Josh. Benji's also written for other artists like Hilary Duff and 5 Seconds of Summer. He made headlines for romancing stars like Australian singer-actress Sophie Monk and Paris Hilton in the late aughts. He's been married to Cameron Diaz, with whom he shares daughter Raddix, since 2015. As for Joel Madden…

_

Like his twin, Joel Madden has stayed busy with Good Charlotte and the Madden Brothers and also appeared on "The Voice Australia" and "The Voice Kids Australia." He dated actress-singer Hilary Duff from 2004 to 2006 and shortly after their split moved on with reality star-turned-designer Nicole Richie. The couple welcomed two children, daughter Harlow in 2008 and son Sparrow in 2009, and married in 2010.

House bill banning TikTok: Lawmakers and entertainers react

by Jennifer Odell Wonderwall Mar. 17, 2024March 17, 2024

By Jennifer Odell 3:08pm PDT, Mar 17, 2024

_

In a rare moment of bipartisanship, the House voted 352-65 on March 13 to pass a bill that would ban TikTok in the United States if the app's owner, ByteDance, doesn't sell its stake in the China-based company. The bill now heads to the Senate — bringing with it a mix of support, backlash and unanswered questions.

Lawmakers backing the bill, like its sponsor, Rep. Mike Gallagher (pictured), a Republican from Wisconsin, say TikTok's deep access to users' personal data — including browsing history, location and biometric identifiers — amounts to a national security risk, given that it's headquartered in Beijing, where laws essentially force China-based organizations to comply with any state demands in "intelligence gathering" situations. Another concern involves the potential for China's authoritarian regime to distribute propaganda or harmful content via the popular video app, which has about 170 million American users.

The vote comes after TikTok sent push alerts to users, urging them to call their representatives and demand Congress protect the app — a move Stephen Colbert joked about on "Late Night" this week: "Genius! What better way to dispel the idea that they are covertly influencing American politics … than by overtly influencing American politics?!" he said.

While ByteDance has maintained American users' data is safe, stored separately and would never be turned over to China's ruling Communist Party, it's unclear how the company would avoid complying with Beijing, where it's headquartered.

Some opponents of a TikTok ban or forced sale point to issues involving free speech and the rights of content creators whose businesses depend on the platform. Others say the bill would simply be ineffective in its mission of making social media safer. Still other detractors point to the fact ByteDance could sell TikTok but keep its valuable source code in China.

President Joe Biden has said he'll sign the bill if it lands on his desk. Former President Donald Trump, who previously tried to ban TikTok, now says he opposes a ban on the app. And on March 15, former Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said he's thinking of making a bid to buy TikTok.

Keep reading to see what everyone from Trump and Biden to Mnuchin and Colbert are saying about the TikTok bill as it heads to the Senate…

In a CNBC interview on March 15, former Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said, "I think the legislation should be passed and I think it should be sold."

He also expressed interest in buying TikTok.

"It's a great business and I'm going to put together a group to buy TikTok … It's worth a lot of money," even if it doesn't turn a profit, said Mnuchin, who served in former President Donald Trump's administration.

"This should be owned by U.S. businesses. There's no way that the Chinese would ever let a U.S. company own something like this in China," he added.

It's unclear what kind of price tag a TikTok sale might carry. ByteDance was valued at $230 billion in 2023, according to CNBC. But the platform would be worth less without its source code. Experts say that code would need to be scrubbed to avoid potential "backdoor" espionage threats from China's government, which likely has access to it, according to Axios.

_

TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew (pictured) has repeatedly pushed back against potential regulation of the platform in the U.S. He did so again after the House vote via a video on the app.

"We will not stop advocating for you, and we will continue to do all we can, including exercising our legal rights to protect this amazing platform we have built for you," he promised in the clip.

TikTok also issued a statement, noting the bill was fast-tracked to approval.

"This process was secret and the bill was jammed through for one reason: it's a ban," the statement read, per CNN. "We are hopeful that the Senate will consider the facts, listen to their constituents, and realize the impact on the economy, 7 million small businesses, and the 170 million Americans who use our service."

_

"Frankly, there are a lot of people on TikTok that love it. There are a lot of young kids on TikTok who will go crazy without it," Donald Trump said of the bill on a recent edition of CNBC's "Squawk Box."

"There's a lot of good and there's a lot of bad with TikTok. But the thing I don't like is that without TikTok you're going to make Facebook bigger, and I consider Facebook to be an enemy of the people, along with a lot of the media."

"When I look at it, I'm not looking to make Facebook double the size. I think Facebook has been very bad for our country, especially when it comes to elections," he added.

Asked about speculation his change of heart on TikTok was tied to his recent meeting with TikTok stakeholder and major GOP donor Jeff Yass, Trump said they didn't discuss the app.

"No, I didn't. I met with him very briefly," the former president said. "I made a speech and I said hello to him, and his wife was lovely. And actually, her primary thing was on education. She wants choice, as I do. And she mentioned to me more than anything. You know, we talked about education. It was a meeting that lasted for a few minutes. … I don't think I ever met him before [that]. But he never mentioned TikTok."

_

"If they pass it, I'll sign it," President Joe Biden told reporters when asked about the TikTok bill (formally the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act) on Friday, March 8, per CBS News.

_

"Banning one of the most popular social media apps in the world would have a huge impact on American life," Stephen Colbert joked on "The Late Show" the night before the House vote. "Without TikTok, where else would I learn about actual trends like cooking chicken in Nyquil? Or future trends like calling the ambulance after someone cooks chicken in Nyquil?"

Colbert went on to note TikTok "sent push notifications urging users to call their representatives" that resulted in a flood of calls to lawmakers whose offices were then told the constituent was calling "because TikTok told me to."

"Genius! What better way to dispel the idea that they are covertly influencing American politics … than by overtly influencing American politics?!" Colbert asked. "'Hello? Yes, Congress? I am outraged that you think my addiction to an app could make me a pawn of the Chinese government. … The Chinese government assures me that's not so,'" he joked.

"It's the dumbest f******* I've ever heard. It makes me so mad beyond f****** belief. We are starving. People are dying. People are in jail for marijuana f****** charges. We're in a war that we should not be in in the first place. And TikTok is our most pressing concern? I don't think so. It's also infuriating and a test to our political system that that bill got introduced what, five minutes ago? And it was passed this morning and now it's already going to the Senate whereas there are already all sorts of bills that take weeks, months, years and never get anything done to them goe to show is somebody wants something done it can be done. But we love to dilly dally and make s*** not happen. It's stupid. And it really goes to show that with this election year you really need to get out and vote…" –social media star James Charles

_

"So now, the bill goes to the Senate, which means the fate of every tweenaged TikToker is in the hands of a bunch of old white people with Hotmail accounts. This is a big deal. This is like iPhone 'Footloose,' and there's no Kevin Bacon to save us," Jimmy Kimmel said on "Jimmy Kimmel Live."

"I mean, Republicans voted against their own border bill because they were afraid it would make Joe Biden look good. They can't even get it together to stand up to Vladimir Putin. But, by God, they will stand up to Charli D'Amelio and then some."

_

"Well, if you guys are worried about the Chinese gathering data on Americans, wait till you find out who makes the phones," Seth Meyers joked on "Late Night."

_

"Well, apparently, both Democrats and Republicans are worried that China will steal the secrets of the tortilla slap," Jimmy Fallon said on "The Tonight Show."

_

"But, yes, obviously, there is a problem with a Chinese app spying on Americans and feeding us propaganda… You want American apps doing that," Michael Kosta said on "The Daily Show."

_

On "The View" one day after the House vote, Alyssa Farah Griffin touched on a key aspect of what makes TikTok so problematic — its algorithm.

"When 352 lawmakers, left and right, come together and say this is a bill that needs to be passed, Americans should listen," Griffin said. "TikTok has been described as digital fentanyl."

As the New York Times recently noted, TikTok's scroll-obsession-inducing algorithm was developed "under great secrecy" by ByteDance engineers. In the case of a forced sale to non-Chinese owners, ByteDance could technically keep the secret algorithm code it owns, and/or turn it over to China's government.

Added "The View" host, "There is a unique, ugly playing field of TikTok where people are hearing things that are dangerous and divisive and it's tearing us apart."

_

Rep. Mike Gallagher, the Wisconsin Republican who co-authored the bill, told colleagues on the House floor before the vote that it "forces TikTok to break up with the Chinese Communist Party," according to The New York Times.

"This is a common-sense measure to protect our national security," he added.

_

Illinois Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi, a Democrat and co-lead sponsor of the bill with Rep. Mike Gallagher, a Republican, celebrated its passage on X.

"Today, the House passed my bipartisan bill with @RepGallagher to force ByteDance's divestment from TikTok to end Chinese Communist Party control of the app. The CCP must not be able to use TikTok against Americans, and this bill would prevent that while keeping TikTok available," he wrote.

Earlier in the week, Krishnamoorthi and Gallagher sent an open letter to TikTok in response to its push notifications urging users to call their representatives. "Using your platform to deceive the American people about bipartisan U.S. legislation underscores the clear necessity of the bill currently under consideration," they warned. "Next week, TikTok could be spreading false information about a war. This fall, it could be about our elections."

The lawmakers both serve on the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party and the Energy and Commerce Committee.

_

"We have given TikTok a clear choice: Separate from your parent company ByteDance, which is beholden to the CCP [Chinese Community Party], and remain operational in the United States, or side with the CCP and face the consequences," said Washington Republican Rep. Cathy McMorris, who helped build support for the bill in her role as Energy and Commerce Committee Chair, per the Associated Press. "The choice is TikTok's."

_

House Speaker Mike Johnson shared a statement on X after the House vote: "Communist China is America's largest geopolitical foe and is using technology to actively undermine America's economy and security. Apps like TikTok allow the Chinese Communist Party to push harmful content to our youth and engage in malign activities, such as harvesting the location, purchasing habits, contacts, and sensitive data of Americans," he said.

"Today's bipartisan vote to pass The Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act demonstrates Congress' opposition to Communist China's attempts to spy on and manipulate Americans and signals our resolve to deter our enemies. I urge the Senate to pass this bill and send it to the President so he can sign the bill into law," he added.

_

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise said many of TikTok's young users don't understand how much of their data is put at risk by the app.

"This bill protects those families, those young people, and lets them still use the application that they enjoy," the Louisiana Republican told reporters, according to CNN. "So it's a win for families across America, and it's a long time coming."

_

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, a New York Democrat who voted for the bill, said in a press briefing after the vote that the he's not in favor of banning TikTok, noting that the bill doesn't do that.

"It's now appropriate for the Senate to evaluate the merits of the legislation. I don't support a ban on TikTok. The legislation did not ban TikTok. It's simply a divestiture of TikTok so that this social media platform can be owned by an American company that would protect the data and the privacy of the American consumer from the latent foreign interests, like the Chinese Communist Party," he said, according to CNN.

_

"I'm voting NO on the TikTok forced sale bill," Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wrote on X on March 13, before the House vote.

"This bill was incredibly rushed, from committee to vote in 4 days, with little explanation. There are serious antitrust and privacy questions here, and any national security concerns should be laid out to the public prior to a vote," she added.

_

"Reactionaries who want to ban TikTok claim the data can't be secured because the 'algorithm' is in China. Not true. The truth is the Algorithm runs in the U.S. in oracle cloud with their review of the code. (NOT in China.) Maybe we should examine the facts before committing violations of the 1st and 5th amendments," Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, a Republican, wrote on X after the House vote.

"They want to ban TikTok because it's 'owned by China' Not true. 60% of the company is owned by US and international investors. 20% is owned by the company founders. 20% is owned by company employees, including over 7,000 Americans. The CEO of TikTok is from Singapore, not China. So ask yourself why they keep repeating this lie to scare you?"

_

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a staunch supporter of Donald Trump and a former member of the far-right-leaning Freedom Caucus, told CNN Trump's about-face on TikTok didn't influence her decision to vote against the bill.

"He has his opinion on the bill and he can voice it. It doesn't mean that we're all robots," she said.

_

Senator Lindsey Graham said on "Meet the Press" on Sunday, March 10, that he wasn't sure how he'd vote should the bill pass in the House and come before the Senate. "I am definitely conflicted," he said.

The New York Times points out that in 2020, the Republican from South Carolina defended Donald Trump's executive action against TikTok, writing on social media that the president was "right to want to make sure that the Chinese Communist Party doesn't own TikTok and most importantly — all of your private data."

_

CNN reported Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has been "noncommittal" on the TikTok bill's future. "The Senate will review the legislation when it comes over from the House," the Democrat from New York said in a statement after the vote in the House.

_

In a March 12 speech on Capitol Hill, Texas Republican Rep. Chip Roy defended the bill.

"We are in a cold war with China. We should fight them here and ban the foreign ownership and control of American data and stop apologizing for the Chinese communists," he said, in part.

"When the Chinese Communist Party is actively targeting the American citizen — I'm tired of people hiding behind the flag to let China do it," Roy added. "We have legislation before us that is 12 pages long. The bill is not a ban. It forces foreign adversaries including Chinese Communists to divest. … We should stop… apologizing for the Chinese Communists."

"This censorship bill if far too broad. It will be abused in the future" –Elon Musk, sharing a post detailing the so-called "TikTok bill" on X

The Kelces say goodbye to majestic dog

It's a difficult time for newly retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce and wife Kylie Kelce.

On March 14, Kylie took to Instagram to announce the death of their older Irish wolfhound, Winnie, who was 7. (The Kelces' other Irish wolfhound, Baloo, turns 6 in April 2024.)

Keep reading for Kylie's heartbreaking tribute to the dog she calls her "first-born child" and to learn more about the majestic breed…

Kylie Kelce shared a heartbreaking Instagram post accompanied by wonderful photos of her dog, including an image of Winnie with the NFL star (seen here) and a pic of herself with Winnie when the dog served as a flower girl at the couple's 2018 wedding.

"When I was in high school I had a folder on my desktop labeled 'Gods gift to earth.' It was images of Irish Wolfhounds that I had collected from Google. I had fallen in love with the breed when I was a young and never let my fascination with them fade," Kylie began her post.

"It all lead me to Winnie and holy s*** did she live up to the hype. She was everything I had hoped for in a wolfie and more," Kylie continued.

"I lost part of my soul today, but I know she is at peace. I love you, Winn. You will always be my first born child," she concluded her post.

Keep reading for another photo of Winnie, Jason's thoughts on the breed, Travis Kelce's reaction to news of Winnie's passing and more about the incredible dog breed…

In February 2024, a fan asked Jason Kelce on X, formerly Twitter, if he should get an Irish wolfhound.

Jason kept it real in his reply, writing, "They are wonderful animals, absolutely adore mine. Very loving and connected with their humans. Not for everyone though. If you travel a lot, have limited amount of space, keep food on the counter, and have nice furniture, they may not be for you."

When the poster responded to ask if dogs of the breed are like "overgrown lapdogs," Jason confirmed it, writing, "They very much are. Incredibly gentle, loyal, majestic lapdogs that hate being away from their owners."

Fitness influencer Kayle Nicole — Travis Kelce's former girlfriend of five years — also took to the comments of Kylie Kelce's post about losing her beloved Irish wolfhound Winnie, writing, "Winnie girl. What a sweet life she lived."

According to the American Kennel Club, male Irish wolfhounds grow to a minimum of 32 inches at the shoulder while females are usually 30 inches or taller.

Males weigh at least 120 pounds while females are at least 105 pounds. The AKC further states that "a male might stand nearly 3 feet at the shoulder and weigh up to 180 pounds."

The large dogs have a life expectancy of six to eight years.

This photo shows an Irish wolfhound competing in the Hound Group at the 147th Annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show Presented by Purina Pro Plan at Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York City on May 8, 2023.

_

According to the American Kennel Club, Irish wolfhounds are rated 5/5 for being "affectionate with family," 4/5 for being "good with other dogs" and 3/5 for being "good with young children."

The AKC further states that the breed is "characteristically patient with kids" though warns that even though owning one of the animals is a "unique, rewarding experience … acquiring a giant galloping hound is a commitment as big as the dog itself."

Irish wolfhounds are the traditional mascot of the Irish Guards in Britain.

Princess Kate is see here placing a sprig of shamrock on Turlough Mór, also known as Séamus — the Irish Guards 17th Regimental mascot Irish wolfhound — during the St. Patrick's Day Parade in Aldershot, Britain, on March 17, 2023.

Why does the dog have two names?

According to The Guards Magazine, "Whilst the hound has the kennel name Séamus, having grown enough to answer to it, regimental custom and tradition dictates that the Irish Guards Mascot is named after an ancient High King of Ireland.

"After much deliberation, the Regimental Council agreed that a 'parade name' would be a suitable compromise and the 17th Regimental Mascot is now officially named Turlough Mór after a King who ruled Connaught from 1106 to 1156 and who ruled as High King of Ireland from 1136 to 1156. This Irish king was descended from Brian Boru, the name of the Irish Guards' first Regimental Mascot, and is also an ancestor of Captain Eoin O'Conor who is currently a serving Irish Guards officer."

As reported by The Guards Magazine, "Irish wolfhounds are recognised as among the biggest dog breeds in the world, standing up to 32 inches tall. Unfortunately, the breed suffers from a heart condition known as dilated cardiomyopathy which can affect their lifespan with less than 10% of the breed making it to 10 years of age."

_

"The calm, dignified, and kindly Irish Wolfhound is the tallest of all AKC breeds," according to the American Kennel Club. "Once fearless big-game hunters capable of dispatching a wolf in single combat, Wolfhounds today are the most serene and agreeable of companions."

Thsio photo shows two Irish wolfhounds at the Crufts dog show at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham, England, on March 7, 2015.

_

According to the American Kennel Club, Irish wolfhounds — which come in white, gray, brindle, red, black and fawn — "are too serene to be fierce guard dogs, but just the sight of them is enough to deter intruders."

This photo show Irish wolfhound Domhnall — then a mascot of the Irish Guards — during the 1st Battalion Irish Guards St. Patrick's Day Parade at Cavalry Barracks in Hounslow, England, on March 17, 2019.

State of the Union: Trump, entertainers, politicians and more react to 'fiery' speech

by Mark Gray Wonderwall Mar. 17, 2024March 17, 2024

By Mark Gray 7:31am PDT, Mar 17, 2024

_

On March 7, President Joe Biden delivered his last State of Union address before the November election. During his speech, America's commander-in-chief spoke loudly and often needled his likely 2024 Republican opponent, Donald Trump, without ever saying his name, calling him only "my predecessor." Elsewhere, Biden touched on immigration, abortion, the economy and the conflict in the Middle East.

Following the speech, the POTUS took to social media. "I see a future where we defend democracy — not diminish it. I see a future where we restore the right to choose — not take it away. I see a future where the middle class finally has a fair shot and the wealthy pay their fair share," he penned. "Above all, I see a country for all Americans."

The SOTU speech was applauded by Democrats and reviled by Republicans. Click through to see how celebrities and politicians are publicly reacting to Biden's words...

"He was angry, mentally disturbed, and misrepresenting a lot of the facts concerning almost every subject he discussed. But he got through it.

"It's a proof of life speech." —Sen. Marco Rubio

"Joe Biden has more energy than a much younger man. He was on fire in his speech and the Republicans were clearly uncomfortable as the President outlined very popular policies. He used the power of facts and the truth. Bravo." —Barbra Streisand

_

"That was possibly the darkest, most un-American speech ever given by an American president. In fact, it wasn't a speech, it was a rant, entirely lacking in decency or generosity to his fellow Americans." —conservative commentary Tucker Carlson

_

"Did Joe Biden acknowledge the 10.4 million illegal aliens he's let into this country? No. Did he acknowledge the open borders he put in place deliberately? No. Did he acknowledge the thousands of migrants who died because of his open borders? Not a word." —Sen. Ted Cruz

_

"Tonight I attended President @JoeBiden's #SOTU speech where he confronted our country's gun violence epidemic head on. Too many Americans are dying every day, and I know he will never stray from our mission to protect communities from gun violence." —Former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords

"My predictions were correct: the President pointed fingers & tossed the blame to anyone but himself when it came to the border crisis. Both of our Borders are in shambles, causing record-high illegal immigration. Biden must immediately enact the policies outlined in @HouseGOP's H.R.2." —Rep. Claudia Tenney

_

"The speech was strong, and President Biden was strong. He was filled with strength and optimism for the future and for the middle class in America," said Sen. Chuck Schumer. "What the American people heard tonight was a leader who spoke directly to them, acknowledging their needs and sharing in their hopes for the future, reminding us why America is a beacon of hope to the rest of the world and the work that must be done to maintain that status.

31 of the all-time greatest cowboys

By Wonderwall.com Editors 1:00pm PDT, Mar 16, 2024

Join us as we take a look back at the greatest cowboys in pop culture…

Jeff Bridges has played a cowboy many times over the course of his illustrious career, but his work in 2009's "Crazy Heart" was his best. Is there anything better than a cowboy with a raspy voice singing about his troubles? Jeff won his first Oscar for his devastating portrayal of Otis "Bad" Blake in the film.

Kevin Costner played John Dutton, the patriarch of the Dutton family who's a widow and father of three put in charge of the family's Yellowstone Dutton Ranch, on the Paramount+ series "Yellowstone," which airs its final episode in 2024. Though he faced plenty of foes on his land, during season 5, viewers saw John delve into politics in an attempt to keep control of his ranch.

_

Is there a cowboy more famous than Clint Eastwood? From "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" and "Rawhide" to "Space Cowboys," there's no doubt Clint is the penultimate cowboy gunslinger extraordinaire.

_

Name a space cowboy more iconic than Han Solo… we'll wait! Harrison Ford famously portrayed the Millennium Falcon captain and smuggler-turned-Rebel Alliance freedom fighter in the "Star Wars" film franchise. More often than not, Han was accompanied by his right-hand man, Wookie warrior Chewbacca.

_

NFL quarterback Tony Romo played for the Dallas Cowboys for 14 seasons starting in 2003. He might not be a cowboy in the traditional sense, but as the leader of America's Team, he's got the rough and tough part down pat!

_

What's better than one super-hot cowboy? Two super-hot cowboys, of course! Add a tragic love story — between the repressed cowboys portrayed by Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger, who both scored Academy Award nominations for their efforts — and you've got one of the greatest cowboy tales of all time: 2005's "Brokeback Mountain."

_

Tim McGraw scored a No. 1 hit with his 2001 single "The Cowboy in Me." Clearly, there is a lot of cowboy in Tim, who in 2021 began starring on the "Yellowstone" prequel series "1883."

_

John Travolta might have been an "Urban Cowboy," but he was a cowboy nonetheless. We'd happily take him for a ride on the mechanical bull!

_

Fact: Chuck Norris karate-kicked the last person who called him a cowboy the length of a football field. Chuck Norris — who starred on the CBS series "Walker, Texas Ranger" from 1993 to 2001 — is not a cowboy. Chuck Norris is a cowman.

_

In 2021, Benedict Cumberbatch proved he can be a really terrifying cowboy! The English actor, who's starred in films like "Doctor Strange" and "The Imitation Game," took on a role unlike the rest when he portrayed Phil Burbank, a brutish cowboy and tyrannical ranch owner in Netflix's "The Power of the Dog." We weren't the only ones impressed with Benedict's performance — in 2022, his chilling portrayal earned him an Oscar nod for best actor. (The film earned a total of 12 Oscar nominations, including best picture and best director.)

_

While "The Big Trail" was a big flop, it did have one high point: It gave fresh-faced stud John Wayne his first starring role in Hollywood. John went on to become a bona fide movie star for another three decades and earned his place as a Western movie legend.

_

Sheriff Woody Pride has established himself as one of Pixar's most beloved characters. The floppy toy-string cowboy, a leader among the "Toy Story" playthings, has long been voiced by Hollywood legend Tom Hanks. Woody is always driven, helpful and determined to make the toy world better for everyone. What more could you want from a cowboy?

_

They're mostly in their 50s now, but back in 1988, there was nothing hotter than the youthful cast of "Young Guns" — Emilio Estevez, Charlie Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland, Dermot Mulroney, Lou Diamond Phillips and Casey Siemaszko as Billy the Kid and his gang of outlaws.

_

Nathan Fillion seriously charmed audiences as Malcolm "Mal" Reynolds, a cowboy and captain of the Serenity transport ship, on Joss Whedon's short-lived space Western series "Firefly." The show, which ran for just the 2002-2003 season, was followed by the film "Serenity."

_

Jamie Foxx starred as the titular slave-turned-bounty hunter in Quentin Tarantino's 2012 revisionist Western "Django Unchained." The movie was a hit with critics and at the box office, grossing more than $400 million and racking up awards — including an Oscar for best original screenplay.

_

Hugh Jackman as an Australian cowboy? Sign us up! The Oscar-nominated actor starred as a cattle drover who falls in love with a wealthy English woman played by Nicole Kidman in the Baz Luhrmann-directed 2008 epic "Australia."

_

One of the most highly regarded animated television series of all time is the Japanese anime "Cowboy Bebop," which ran from 1997 to 1998 and aired a total of 26 episodes. Set in 2071, the show follows Mars-born bounty hunter Spike Spiegel and his partners as they embark on life-threatening missions in space on their ship, the Bebop. "Cowboy Bebop" was adapted into a Netflix live-action series starring John Cho that aired for one season in 2021.

_

Will Smith's 1999 steampunk cowboy flick "Wild Wild West" might be one of the worst Westerns ever made — but we still love Will's Capt. James West. And, yes, we still know every word to the theme song.

_

The short-lived Western series "Deadwood" was so widely beloved, HBO revived it for a 2019 made-for-TV movie. Ian McShane starred as Al Swearengen, the proprietor of the Gem Saloon, while Timothy Olyphant portrayed Deadwood sheriff Seth Bullock.

_

Clearly no one does gun-slinging better than Timothy Olyphant! After starring as Sheriff Seth Bullock on HBO's "Deadwood," the Emmy-nominated actor portrayed U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens on "Justified." Just like the gunslingers of yore, Raylan had a shoot first, ask questions later attitude.

_

Paramount+'s "1923," is a "Yellowstone" prequel series that stars Harrison Ford as Jacob Dutton — the great-great-uncle of Kevin Costner's John Dutton from "Yellowstone" — and Helen Mirren as his wife, Clara. The season 1 premiere of "1923" delivered 7.4 million viewers, marking Paramount+'s biggest debut ever (almost three times what "Yellowstone" brought it when it first aired). The series follows a generation of Duttons during the time of western expansion, Prohibition and the Great Depression.

_

Kurt Rusell and Val Kilmer tackled legends Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday in the 1993 film "Tombstone." Their portrayal of the gunfight at the O.K. Corral is now one of the most iconic depictions of the Wild West ever.

_

"Cowboys & Aliens" might have been a major flop — and don't even get us started on the incomprehensible plot. But here's the thing: Daniel Craig is smoking hot, and watching James Bond play an outlaw was thrilling regardless of the context.

_

Back before we knew Jon Voight as the man who fathered Angelina Jolie, the actor earned a few major award nominations for his work as male prostitute Joe Buck in "Midnight Cowboy." Jon even took home the Golden Globe for most promising newcomer in 1970. He also took home the award for best fringed rodeo jacket.

_

Remember how we said Jeff Bridges has portrayed cowboys, like, a lot over the course of his career? Well, he also earned an Oscar nomination for his work as Deputy U.S. Marshal Rooster Cogburn in the Coen brothers' 2010 adaptation of "True Grit."

_

Oklahoma native Blake Shelton is as cowboy as they come. The country music star rocks a pair of cowboy boots and a cowboy hat like nobody's business — and he's the original "Asphalt Cowboy." Sorry, Jason Aldean!

_

Cleavon Little was absolutely hysterical as Sheriff Bart — a newly deputized former railroad worker — in the 1974 satirical Western "Blazing Saddles." The Mel Brooks comedy scored three Oscar nominations.

_

Armie Hammer's "Lone Ranger" alter ego is a Texas Ranger, and who's more cowboy than a Ranger? Armie's 10-gallon hat says it all!

_

Wanna be a cowboy, baby? There's no one better to teach you how than self-proclaimed white-trash rap-rocker Kid Rock!

_

Christian Bale starred as an impoverished rancher in the Oscar-nominated 2007 Western "3:10 to Yuma." His character is tasked with escorting a ruthless outlaw played by Russell Crowe to the titular 3:10 train to the Yuma Territorial Prison.

_

Matt Damon's all-American good looks made him a perfect cowboy in the 2000 flick "All the Pretty Horses." Unfortunately, despite the A-list actor's ability to channel a gorgeous cowboy, the film failed to make an impression with critics or at the box office.

NBC star's will revealed: Look back at how Hollywood paid tribute

by Wonderwall.com Editors Wonderwall Mar. 16, 2024March 16, 2024

_

New legal filings show "Friends" star Matthew Perry named his parents, his half-sister and an ex-girlfriend as beneficiaries of his estate in a 2009 will, TMZ reported on March 11, 2024. The actor's estate reportedly included more than $1 million worth of personal property when he died at 54 on Oct. 28, 2023.

The bulk of that was earmarked for the Alvy Singer Living Trust, which appears to be named after Woody Allen's character in the 1977 film "Annie Hall." The trust also contains whatever his executors have already contributed to it, People magazine reported.

Filed in March 2024, the court documents indicate Matthew named his business manager, Lisa Ferguson, and "Celebrity Liar" producer Robin Ruzan as the co-executors of the will, but Ruzan declined to accept the role. Beneficiaries include the star's father, John Perry, mother Suzanne Morrison, half-sister Caitlin Morrison and former partner Rachel Dunn, according to reports.

On Dec. 15, 2023, the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's Office released the toxicology report created in conjunction with Matthew Perry's autopsy. It indicated the actor died from "the acute effects of ketamine," which is a drug that's sometimes used to treat depression and is also used recreationally. It caused both cardiovascular overstimulation and respiratory depression. The report revealed Matthew had last undergone ketamine infusion therapy for depression and anxiety a week and a half before his death but that the ketamine found in his system when he died "could not be from that infusion therapy, since ketamine's half-life is 3 to 4 hours, or less," according to TMZ.

The findings further showed there was no evidence of alcohol, methamphetamine, cocaine, heroin, PCP or fentanyl in his system and that contributory factors in his death included drowning, coronary artery disease and the effects of buprenorphine, a drug used to wean addicts off opioids. The report also revealed that Matthew smoked two packs of cigarettes a day, had COPD/emphysema and diabetes, and that, according to interviews conducted by the medical examiner, he had been sober for 19 months.

In the wake of his tragic death, celebrity friends, politicians, famous fans and former co-stars — including Matthew's "Friends" castmates — took to social media to mourn the late comedy star…

Jennifer Aniston mourned "Friends" co-star Matthew Perry in an emotional Instagram post on Nov. 15 after taking time to process his death.

"Oh boy this one has cut deep… Having to say goodbye to our Matty has been an insane wave of emotions that I've never experienced before. We all experience loss at some point in our lives. Loss of life or loss of love. Being able to really SIT in this grief allows you to feel the moments of joy and gratitude for having loved someone that deep. And we loved him deeply. He was such a part of our DNA. We were always the 6 of us. This was a chosen family that forever changed the course of who we were and what our path was going to be," she began her post, which was accompanied by a black-and-white photo of her and Matthew on the "Friends" set, a screengrab of a text they exchanged and a heartbreaking clip from their show about saying goodbye.

"For Matty, he KNEW he loved to make people laugh. As he said himself, if he didn't hear the 'laugh' he thought he was going to die. His life literally depended on it. And boy did he succeed in doing just that," she continued.

"He made all of us laugh. And laugh hard. In the last couple weeks, I've been pouring over our texts to one another. Laughing and crying then laughing again. I'll keep them forever and ever. I found one text that he sent me out of nowhere one day. It says it all. (See the second slide…)," she added.

"Matty, I love you so much and I know you are now completely at peace and out of any pain. I talk to you every day… sometimes I can almost hear you saying 'could you BE any crazier?'" she wrote, concluding her post, "Rest little brother. You always made my day…"

On Nov. 14 — after taking a few weeks to mourn privately — Courteney Cox shared a loving public tribute to her on-screen husband alongside some hilarious videos on Instagram.

"I am so grateful for every moment I had with you Matty and I miss you every day," she began her post.

"When you work with someone as closely as I did with Matthew, there are thousands of moments I wish I could share. For now here's one of my favorites.

"To give a little backstory, Chandler and Monica were supposed to have a one night fling in London. But because of the audience's reaction, it became the beginning of their love story.

"In this scene, before we started rolling, he whispered a funny line for me to say.

He often did things like that. He was funny and he was kind," she concluded.

"Friends" co-star Matt LeBlanc shared a tribute to Matthew Perry more than two weeks after his death after taking time to mourn privately.

"Matthew, it is with a heavy heart I say goodbye. The times we had together are honestly among the favorite times of my life. It was an honor to share the stage with you and to call you my friend. I will always smile when I think of you and I'll never forget you. Never. Spread your wings and fly brother you're finally free. Much love. And I guess you're keeping the 20 bucks you owe me," he captioned a slideshow of photos on Instagram.

_

"Matty, Thank you for ten incredible years of laughter and creativity. I will never forget your impeccable comic timing and delivery. You could take a straight line of dialogue and bend it to your will, resulting in something so entirely original and unexpectedly funny it still astonishes," David Schwimmer began his post.

"And you had heart. Which you were generous with, and shared with us, so we could create a family out of six strangers," he continued before referencing the image that accompanied his post showing him and Matthew in "Miami Vice"-inspired outfits. "This photo is from one of my favorite moments with you. Now it makes me smile and grieve at the same time."

David concluded his post, "I imagine you up there, somewhere, in the same white suit, hands in your pockets, looking around — 'Could there BE any more clouds?'"

Lisa Kudrow shared a loving tribute to "Friends" co-star Matthew Perry on Nov. 15.

"Shot the pilot, Friends Like Us, got picked up then immediately, we were at the NBC Upfronts. Then… You suggested we play poker AND made it so much fun while we initially bonded. Thank you for that.," she began her Instagram post.

"Thank you for making me laugh so hard at something you said, that my muscles ached, and tears poured down my face EVERY DAY. Thank you for your open heart in a six way relationship that required compromise. And a lot of 'talking,'" she continued.

"Thank you for showing up at work when you weren't well and then, being completely brilliant. Thank you for the best 10 years a person gets to have. Thank you for trusting me. Thank you for all I learned about GRACE and LOVE through knowing you. Thank you for the time I got to have with you, Matthew."

Matthew Perry's "Friends" co-stars — Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer — released a statement to People magazine addressing his sudden death at 54 shortly after his passing, waiting a few weeks to say more…

"We are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew. We were more than just cast mates. We are a family. There is so much to say, but right now we're going to take a moment to grieve and process this unfathomable loss. In time we will say more, as and when we are able. For now, our thoughts and our love are with Matty's family, his friends, and everyone who loved him around the world," they said in their initial cast statement.

_

"I met Matthew Perry in 1993 at the Williamstown Theater Festival in Massachusetts. We were both there for most of the summer doing plays. He was so funny and so sweet and so much fun to be with. We drove out to swim in creeks, had beers in the local college bar, kissed in a field of long grass. It was a magical summer. He had shot the pilot of 'Friends' but it had not aired yet. He was nervous, hoping his big break was just around the corner. It was. We stayed friends for a while until we drifted apart, but I was always happy to see him when I did. I am super sad today, as so many of us are. I hope Matthew is at peace at long last. I really do." –Gwyneth Paltrow

_

"Matthew was the first friend I made in Los Angeles when I moved there. I was 21, he was 16," Hank Azaria — who called Matthew Perry "the funniest man ever" — said in a tribute video on Instagram. (He went on to detail how they made a failed pilot together.)

"Matthew and I became really good friends — and we were really more like brothers for a long time. We drank a lot together, we laughed a lot together, we were there for each other in the early days of our career," he continued.

"I really loved him. A lot of us who were close to him felt like we lost him to drugs and alcohol a long time ago because — as he documented in his autobiography — there was so much suffering," Hank said, adding, "I had to pick up and put down that biography like 11 times, it was so painful for me to read."

Continued Hank, "I'm a sober guy for 17 years, and I wanna say that, the night I went into AA, Matthew brought me in. The whole first year I was sober, we went to meetings together. He was so caring and giving and wise. And he totally helped me get sober. And I really wish he could've, you know, found the… found it in himself to stay with the sober life more consistently…"

"It's heartbreaking for those of us who loved him and knew him really well personally. We just missed him. We just missed him. It's one of the terrible things about this disease, is it just takes away the person you love," he added.

Hank concluded his lengthy video, "Professionally, as an actor, he was so brilliant. I just wish we — I and the world — could have gotten what the rest of his career would've been."

"Really struggling to find the words. You were so loved, Matthew. I loved you dearly. Thank you for the belly laughs. You brought joy to so many. We already miss you… sending all of my love to your family and friends" —Brooke Shields

"I met Matthew Perry when he was just a funny kid. Always smiling. I played hockey with his dad, John Bennett Perry, in charity hockey games for many years. Matt joined the team as a teenager. He will always be loved by all of us. Somewhere today, he's making the Universe laugh." —"Full House" star Dave Coulier

_

Ione Skye took to social media to share her last text exchange with Matthew Perry, her co-star in 1988's "A Night in the Life of Jimmy Reardon."

"Hi! I hope all is well. I was meditating (I meditate now) and 'In Your Eyes' started playing. And I instantly thought of how beautiful you are," Matthew texted her on Oct. 15 — a reference to a memorable song from her 1989 movie "Say Anything." She replied, "Awe. I love that. Xo," leading him to respond, "Hope you are healthy and happy."

Her reply? "Yes I am both. I think! Good to hear from you. I only have nice memories with you." Matthew responded, "Me too. That one afternoon, I was just sitting in my apartment, and there you were!"

The actress, who also shared a photo of herself with Matthew when they were both very young, captioned the text exchange, "My last exchange a week ago. I'm very, very sad. Loved this guy."

"What a loss.The world will miss you Mathew Perry. The joy you brought to so many in your too short lifetime will live on. I feel so very blessed by every creative moment we shared." –Maggie Wheeler, who played Janice — Chandler Bing's ex — on "Friends" alongside Matthew Perry

_

"We were a gang way back. We all grew up together going to the Formosa, North and constantly laughing. Matt, Roger, David, Roxana. We played dare and Matt had to say ridiculous things to girls at the bar. We just always had fun and supported each other. You would always find us all together in a booth speaking in our own made up language. And yes, Matt always had THAT sense of humor.

"Matt and I had a date and it was on Valentine's Day. He wanted to get a reservation at a restaurant in Malibu but couldn't so my dad got the reservation for him. We went and he talked about my dad's Irish persuasiveness the majority of the night.

"Our friendship spanned a long time. A lifetime really. I know many are hurting, especially our little gang. He will be missed by many and definitely by us. Yes. I could be more poetic or say things better but right now, shock and sadness prevail." –Shannen Doherty

Adele paused her residency show in Las Vegas to honor Matthew Perry, telling the audience, she'd "never met [Matthew] in my life," but said she'll remember his "Friends" character, Chandler Bing, "for the rest of my life." Of Chandler, she said, "He's probably the best comedic character of all time."

Adele added, "It is always so shocking, especially someone that made you laugh and who brought so much joy to your life that you don't know. This is what I find so strange, I never met him in my life. There is something, you feel so sad about it especially because you don't necessarily know what was going on."

Adele, who praised Matthew for being "so open with his struggles with addiction and sobriety, which I think is incredibly, incredibly brave," also dedicated her song "When We Were Young" to the late actor.

You made me laugh that painful kind of laugh. A cry laugh. You made me cry-laugh. My condolences to all who loved him." –Alyssa Milano, who shared her thoughts alongside a clip of Matthew on her show "Who's the Boss"

_

"RIP Matthew Perry, 54. The 'Friends' star was a great actor, but by his own admission, a very tormented guy. His recent autobiography about his addiction-ravaged life was one of the most powerful, honest and revealing I've ever read. Such sad news."–Piers Morgan

_

"This man brought so much joy and light to so many around the world. He was such a huge part of the Warner Bros. family and he will be greatly missed. Rest in peace, Matthew Perry" —Jennifer Hudson

"Matty Perry was a gem. I had the great, good fortune to act with and also direct him on 'Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip,'" Timothy Busfield told People magazine in a statement.

"He was a good, good man and a sweet, funny soul who will be missed, desperately. Not only by his millions of devoted fans, but by those co-workers and friends who he made crumble to the floor with his fast and searing wit.

"He told me that he once spent an entire evening entertaining a famous director. Taking him to one club after another, thinking to himself 'he really likes me, maybe he'll hire me.' It wasn't until the following morning, after a great night, that he discovered it wasn't the famous director at all. He was just some guy. He told that story on himself. That's what kind of man he was.

"Happy Trails, brother. I'll miss you."

Baseball legend suffers heart attack: The best pictures of the four-time World Series champion

by Wonderwall.com Editors Wonderwall Mar. 16, 2024March 16, 2024

By Wonderwall.com Editors 11:00am PDT, Mar 16, 2024

_

New York Mets and Yankees great Darryl Strawberry suffered a heart attack on March 11 — one day before the baseball star's 62nd birthday, a rep for the Mets confirmed to ESPN on March 12. Darryl also shared the news himself on Instagram, posting a photo of himself in a hospital bed.

"Praising God for His amazing grace and loving mercy in saving my life this evening from a heart attack," he captioned the shot with wife Tracy Boulware and one of his kids, daughter Alice Lucas. "I am so happy and honored to report that all is well. So thankful for the medical team and staff at St. Joseph West in Lake St. Louis for responding so quickly and bringing me through a stent-procedure that has brought my heart to total restoration!!! Your prayers are so absolutely appreciated as I continue to recover, in Jesus Name!"

As of Tuesday, the former athlete was still "resting comfortably" under the care of his doctors, ESPN reported.

Darryl's legendary baseball career began in New York City with the Mets in 1983, the same year he was honored as the National League's Rookie of the Year. The right fielder and star hitter soon surpassed his rookie status, though, helping to lead the Mets to his first World Series win alongside pitcher Dwight Gooden in 1986. Darryl ultimately notched seven All-Star seasons and one World Series championship during his Mets tenure, as well as a reputation as one of the sport's most powerful hitters and fastest runners.

After brief stints with the Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Francisco Giants, Darryl returned to New York City in 1995 as a Yankee, helping the team win two World Series championships before his final game in 1999. By the end of his 17 MLB seasons, however, Darryl's battle with substance abuse issues had started to affect his performance and led to three suspensions.

The Mets are set to retire Darryl's number, 18, on April 14.

See a famed abducted teen then and now — 21 years after her rescue

On June 5, 2002, 14-year-old Elizabeth Smart was abducted from her Salt Lake City, Utah, home and this photo (and others like it) were shown all over the world. For the next nine months, no one heard a thing and all hope seemed to be lost. However, a "miracle" happened on March 12, 2003: Elizabeth was spotted on the side of a Salt Lake-area road with her two abductors, Brian David Mitchell and Wanda Barzee. She was quickly taken to safety.

On the 21st anniversary of her rescue, Elizabeth, now 36 and a mother of three, recalled her feelings about being saved in a thoughtful Instagram post.

"I believe in miracles. I believe in happy endings. I believe in dreams coming true. Today is the 21st anniversary of being rescued," she penned. "My life is far from perfect but I'm so happy and grateful for the life I have today."

She added, "When I was kidnapped I thought I'd never finish school, go to college, fall in love, get married, or have a family. I thought every dream I had for myself was stolen. For me today is a celebration of all the happy moments of my life, and a reminder to never give up. I know each of us has a story and we all have our dark days in life but I hope whoever reads this finds themselves believing in miracles, dreams coming true, and hope for a better future."

Oprah Winfrey explains why she resigned from WW board: Stars who've used medication to drop lbs

by Megan Riedlinger Wonderwall Mar. 16, 2024March 16, 2024

These days, it seems a class of drugs with ingredients intended to treat diabetes is how Hollywood stars and other notable names are losing weight. Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Zepbound are all the rage… but which of your favorite stars have fessed up to using medication to drop some weight? Join Wonderwall.com as we round them up…

For five decades, Oprah Winfrey's weight occupied "space in my brain," she told People magazine in a December 2023 cover story, leaving her "yo-yoing and feeling like why can't I just conquer this thing, believing willpower was my failing."

After a 2021 knee surgery inspired new fitness goals, she achieved them. "I could eventually hike three to five miles every day and a 10-mile straight-up hike on weekends," she shared. "I felt stronger, more fit and more alive than I'd felt in years." She also revamped her diet (again): "I eat my last meal at 4 o'clock, drink a gallon of water a day and use the WeightWatchers principles of counting points. I had an awareness of [weight-loss] medications, but felt I had to prove I had the willpower to do it. I now no longer feel that way."

In July 2023, she changed her mind during a panel conversation with weight loss experts and clinicians. "I had the biggest aha along with many people in that audience. I realized I'd been blaming myself all these years for being overweight, and I have a predisposition that no amount of willpower is going to control," the Oscar nominee said, adding, "Obesity is a disease. It's not about willpower — it's about the brain."

Oprah then "released my own shame about it," talked to her doctor and got a weight loss medication prescription. "I now use it as I feel I need it, as a tool to manage not yo-yoing," she said, though she declined to name the drug. "The fact that there's a medically approved prescription for managing weight and staying healthier, in my lifetime, feels like relief, like redemption, like a gift, and not something to hide behind and once again be ridiculed for. I'm absolutely done with the shaming from other people and particularly myself."

But her weight loss isn't just down to the medication. "It's everything," she told People. "I know everybody thought I was on it [already], but I worked so damn hard. I know that if I'm not also working out and vigilant about all the other things, it doesn't work for me."

Keep reading to find out why in February 2024, Oprah left the board of WeightWatchers after nearly 10 years…

On a March 2024 episode of "Jimmy Kimmel Live," Oprah Winfrey explained why she left the board of WeightWatchers the previous month not long after disclosing that she'd used medication to help her lose weight, sharing that it was because she was making a TV special about prescription weight loss medications.

"I decided that because this special was really important to me and I wanted to be able to talk about whatever I wanted to talk about, and WeightWatchers is now in the business of being a weight health company that also administers drug medications for weight," she said, "I did not want to have the appearance of any conflict of interest. So I resigned from the board and donated all of my shares to the National Museum of African American History and Culture. So nobody can say, 'Oh, she's doing that special, she's making money, promoting…"

Ozempic quickly caught the attention of the cast of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey." Star Jennifer Fessler fessed up to using a form of the medication featuring semaglutide when she appeared on "Watch What Happens Live" in March 2023, sharing, "I did lose a lot of weight. I took peptides, and I don't know if you've heard of medications associated with [peptides] that help people lose weight." Host Andy Cohen pressed her further, asking specifically if she took Ozempic, to which she responded, "You said it, I didn't. But … whatever works, here I am."

In December 2023, she revealed that she was still using the drug despite seeking treatment at a hospital for a severe side effect. On a December 2023 episode of her podcast, "Two Jersey Js," Jennifer shared, "I have been on, and I'm not going to call it Ozempic — that's been the umbrella name. But I've been on semaglutide for over a year now, and I've lost maybe 22 pounds." She described herself as "a raging hypochondriac," but "when it comes to things having to do with my physical appearance, somehow that goes out the window," she added. "For instance, I'm not afraid at all of going into surgery for anything cosmetic."

At one point a few months earlier, she admitted, "I had to go to the hospital for an impacted bowel… and I'm still not nervous about [using semaglutide," she said. "I was drinking no water, eating no vegetables. 'Cause something that happens, a new experience for me, is being able to eat what I want even when it's not the most healthy choices and still lose weight," she continued. "So maybe for the first time in my life, I'm losing weight on pizza and bagels and ice cream. Having said that, I noticed there was constipation, I didn't do anything about it. I wasn't taking Miralax, that you take every morning, or any kind of stool softener. I hadn't gone in a week, then it was a week and a half."

She said even though she was aware of possible side effects, she's "to blame for ignoring them and allowing them to escalate to the point where I became impacted."

In May 2023, Sharon Osbourne opened up about her weight loss journey and the negative repercussions she faced. Though she didn't name Ozempic specifically, she shared on an episode of her U.K. show "The Talk" that she took an injectable weight loss drug for months. "The first couple of months, I just felt nauseous. Every day I felt nauseous, my stomach was upset," Sharon explained, "but I took it. I took it for four months and I lost 30 pounds, but like everything, there's always no quick recipe."

A few months later in September 2023, Sharon (seen here in August 2023) sparked concern about her weight when she appeared on talk TV's "Piers Morgan Uncensored" looking skinnier than ever. "I didn't want to go this thin," she admitted. (See the images that had everyone talking here.)

She also made headlines when she revealed on an episode of her family's "The Osbournes" podcast that every week, she goes "at least three days without eating."

The comments came a few weeks after she told E! News, "In my life, the heaviest I was 230 pounds and I'm now under a hundred. And I want to maintain at about 105 because I'm too skinny. But I'm trying to have a healthy balance." Sharon also said no one should be ashamed of using a drug to help with weight loss. "It's not a dirty little secret when you've taken something to help you lose weight, which is perfectly fine. We don't have to bulls***."

Elon Musk admitted to using a drug with the same active ingredient as Ozempic — semaglutide — in an October 2022 tweet. When asked about the "secret" to his "ripped" physique, the X, SpaceX and tesla mogul gave two answers — "fasting" and "Wegovy."

Disgraced politician George Santos — the Republican member of the U.S. House of Representatives from New York who in 2023 was indicted by a federal grand jury on multiple counts of everything from wire fraud, money laundering and making false statements to theft of public funds, falsifying records, aggravated identity theft and more before his peers kicked him out of Congress — confirmed he's been using Ozempic since 2022.

"In January 2022, I weighed myself in at 350 pounds and I said, 'No. This has to change.' In December 2022, I weighed myself in before the New Year rang in and I was 251 pounds, so that's 99 pounds in a year," he said on an October 2023 episode of the podcast "Meghan McCain Has Entered the Chat," as reported by Page Six.

"I was pre-diabetic. It totally helped. I think the FDA should really consider looking into it and seeing it as an option for weight loss. Obesity is the number one cause of death in this country," he continued.

He further shared that he'll always be on the drug because of his pre-diabetes status: "It's fantastic," he said, adding, "I love it."

These days, it seems a drug intended to treat diabetes is Hollywood's latest weight loss secret. Ozempic is all the rage… but which of your favorite stars have fessed up to using it drop weight? Wonderwall.com is rounding them up…

Amy Schumer shared her experience with Ozempic during a June 2023 appearance on "Watch What Happens Live" and explained that being a mom while on the drug was difficult. Though she lost weight, she also noted that the medication made her feel "so sick" that she was unable to play with her son. "I was so skinny and he's throwing a ball at me and [I couldn't]." This ultimately made her decide Ozempic was not for her.

_

Slimmed-down comedian Tracy Morgan revealed on the Aug. 14, 2023, episode of the "Today" show that his "weight got lost" thanks to an Ozempic prescription and he "ain't letting it go." The "30 Rock" alum shared when he gets his weekly shot — "I take Ozempic every Thursday," he said — and revealed the semaglutide drug "cuts my appetite in half. Now I only eat half a bag of Doritos." He also works out. "I get up at 7 every morning, and I'm in the gym at 10," he said. "Then I go back to sleep. And that's my life."

_

"The Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Dolores Catania has not been shy about discussing her Ozempic use. On an April 2023 episode of Page Six's "Virtual Reali-Tea" podcast, the Bravo star explained how she started on the drug, saying that she took it for medical reasons. "I'm going through menopause, I have a thyroid issue, I have inflammation and weight is hard to take off. And I work out, and I don't eat crazy, and I was gaining weight, and it's a lot of different layers… Let's just let everybody know," she said. She spoke about it again later that month on an episode of "Watch What Happens Live," explaining, "I wasn't going to come to [the] reunion looking bigger than anyone else, so I got on the bandwagon."

_

In June 2023, Emily Simpson from "The Real Housewives of Orange County" opened up about her time on Ozempic. On the "Jeff Lewis Live" show, Emily revealed she was on the buzzy drug in December 2022. While it "worked amazing" and served as a "kick start" for a healthier lifestyle, she said, she ultimately stopped after losing about five pounds. "I didn't like the way it made me feel lethargic and it made me just not have a lot of energy, which was hard with three little kids," Emily shared. After getting off Ozempic, she underwent liposuction and a breast reduction in January 2023 and continued her journey toward a healthier lifestyle with an exercise regime she documented on Instagram.

_

Chelsea Handler was taking version of Ozempic — and she didn't even know it! The comedian told a story on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast in January 2023 revealing that she only learned she was taking the popular weight loss drug when a friend who was also using it figured it out. Chelsea had been injecting a medication she got from her anti-aging doctor and was feeling nauseous — and her friend realized it was a side effect of semaglutide, the active ingredient in the buzzy name-brand drug. "I'm not on it anymore. I'm an irresponsible drug user, but I'm not gonna take a diabetic drug. I tried it, and I'm not gonna do that. That's not for me. That's not right for me," Chelsea explained.

_

Golnesa Gharachedaghi, aka GG from Bravo's "Shahs of Sunset," took to Instagram to get real about Ozempic with her followers. The former reality star posted a video in March 2023 in which she explained, "I am on the weight-loss shots, honey, OK. I'm just not going to lie about it because I always keep it real about what is fake." She showed followers how she does the injection and also revealed she went from 137 to 126 pounds in four weeks.

_

Margaret Josephs opened up to People magazine in April 2023 about her peptide and hormone replacement protocol, calling it "life-changing." The "Real Housewives of New Jersey" star raved about losing 22 pounds, explaining, "the peptides are giving me a new pep." Those peptides are similar to semaglutide, the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy, though she didn't specify which brand she was taking.

_

Tim McGraw and Faith Hill's eldest daughter, Gracie McGraw, has been open about her experience with Ozempic. She first revealed she was taking the drug in an Instagram post in March 2022, explaining that she tried it after being diagnosed with PCOS. "During my appointment with my endocrinologist I realized that may had been a factor in my issues with weight, so we decided to try a medicine to regulate my body more normally and create the tools to continue to keep my body and myself healthy as I get older… The medicine I'm taking has given me a body I haven't had in years (maybe ever?) in a good way though," she wrote. She followed up in May 2023 when she posted photos of herself in a bikini and a follower called out her use of the drug. In response, Gracie shared that she was no longer taking it, writing, "I did use Ozempic last year, yes. I am now on a low dose of Mounjaro for my PCOS as well as working out. No need to accuse when I have been open about it." Mounjaro is another anti-diabetic medication; its active ingredient is tirzepatide, which works similarly to the semaglutide found in Ozempic and Wegovy.

_

Influencer Remi Bader is among the famous faces who've copped to using Ozempic. She's also raised alarms. The social media star was put on the drug due to being pre-diabetic and insulin-resistant but once she stopped taking it, she had a big problem. Remi explained on the "Not Skinny But Not Fat" podcast in January 2023 that after going off the drug, she gained back double the amount of weight she had lost.

_

Former "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" daughter Lauren Manzo was candid about her Ozempic experience in May 2023 on an episode of Page Six's "Virtual Reali-Tea" podcast. The former reality star shared her history of battling her weight, explaining that she was considered "morbidly obese" and had lap band surgery that resulted in the need for an emergency removal. "You guys have seen me struggle with this since I'm 20 years old, and it's been really hard for me, and I've lost a lot of weight from being on that whole Ozempic thing," Lauren explained on the podcast. She also shared that she took Mounjaro, another anti-diabetic drug similar to Ozempic, and found great success. "This is the one thing, even above weight loss surgery that has helped me a lot and cured me and mentally made me so much better. I'm really grateful for it," she said.

The best reactions to report that Aaron Rodgers could be Independent candidate's VP pick

by Mark Gray Wonderwall Mar. 16, 2024March 15, 2024

By Mark Gray 4:00am PDT, Mar 16, 2024

_

Is he running a fake, or is this a real thing?

On March 12, The New York Times reported that Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is considering Aaron Rodgers as his running mate… the same Aaron Rodgers who is currently the quarterback of the New York Jets and, like RFK Jr., openly questions the effectiveness of vaccines. Former professional wrestler Jesse "The Body" Ventura is also being considered. Both men are said to be open to the idea of joining RFK Jr.'s ticket.

After the news made headlines, many in the entertainment and sports broadcasting world couldn't contain their feelings. Click through to see how some of the biggest names are reacting to the possibility of Vice President Rodgers…

"So, if I am to understand this correctly, the #Jets have devoted their entire franchise to the cause of making it work around Aaron Rodgers, and he just might be running for vice president. This is going to be the greatest 30 for 30 of all time," ESPN's Mike Greenberg wrote on X.

He added, "By the way — a 40 year old Aaron Rodgers coming off an Achilles tear campaigning for the vice presidency six days a week would still be the best quarterback the #Jets have had in decades."

"Jesse Ventura [was] elected Minnesota governor when I was a senior in high school and all my idiot 18-year-old friends were like, 'Yeah, Jesse 'The Body'! This is funny! Let's vote for him!'

by Marisa Laudadio Wonderwall Mar. 16, 2024March 15, 2024

The Academy of Motion PIcture Arts and Sciences handed out awards for acting, directing, producing, costumes, music, writing and more at the 96th Annual Academy Awards in Hollywood on March 10, 2024. We, meanwhile, are judging which stars won (and lost) on the red carpet with their Oscars fashion.

Let's get started with the best and worst dressed of the night…

Sure, many fashion critics might love the pink Giambattista Valli haute couture gown that Ariana Grande wore to the 2024 Oscars — where she walked her first red carpet in four years — but we can't stop thinking she looks like a stick of cotton candy. Sorry, Ari! (But we did like it a little more from the back — see that next…)

Then keep reading for more fashion hits and misses from the 2024 Oscars…

_

We liked the way Ariana Grande's Giambattista Valli haute couture gown looked from behind much more than we liked it from the front.

MORE: Stars who've been pregnant at the Oscars

_

Wow! Carey Mulligan gets our vote for the absolute best dressed star at the 96th Annual Academy Awards in this incredible gown remade from the Balenciaga archives.

Keep reading to see her enormous diamond earrings…

_

Carey Mulligan accessorized her jaw-dropping 1951 Balenciaga gown with stunning diamond earrings by Fred Leighton.

_

Billie Eilish — who became the youngest ever two-time Oscar winner on March 10 when she (and brother Finneas) took home the best original song prize for "What Was I Made For?" from "Barbie" — looked great in a Chanel suit plus Mary Janes and socks… but we were really hoping she would have upped the glam factor for such a big event. It was giving more Oscars luncheon than Academy Awards night, right?

Keep reading to see the part of her look that we liked the most…

_

Billie Eilish's tiny Chanel bag in a houndstooth print was the best part of her look.

_

Emily Blunt looked like she was wearing a glass of champagne in this effervescent Schiaparelli couture gown paired with Tiffany & Co. jewels at the 96th Annual Academy Awards.

Keep reading for a closer look at the incredible details…

_

Here's a closer look at the beading on the waist of the Schiaparelli couture dress that Emily Blunt wore to the 96th Annual Academy Awards.

Keep reading to see her look from behind…

_

Emily Blunt's Schiaparelli couture gown featured the perfect little train.

Keep reading to see her best accessory…

_

"Oppenheimer" star Emily Blunt's best accessory of the night might just have been her husband, John Krasinski, who matched his cream-colored tuxedo to her sequined dress.

_

Emma Stone — who took home her second Oscar on March 10 — was also a fashion winner in a simple yet strong statement peplum gown by Louis Vuitton in a mint shade.

Keep reading for a closer look at her necklace…

_

Emma Stone accessorized her Louis Vuitton gown with jewelry by the brand including a stunning diamond and yellow gemstone necklace and diamond earrings.

_

Maybe Cynthia Erivo's green leather Louis Vuitton dress was meant to chanel her character in the upcoming movie musical "Wicked," but to us, it felt more inspired by a dinosaur.

Keep reading for the back view…

_

Cynthia Erivo's leather Louis Vuitton dress gave off Godzilla vibes from behind.

Keep reading to see the one part of her look that we loved…

_

Cynthia Erivo's emerald, diamond and pearl earrings were wicked in the best way.

_

Two of the "Barbie" boys delivered killer looks on the Oscars red carpet despite both deciding to skip ties — we definitely thought the subtle sparkle on Ryan Gosling's tuxedo jacket was Kenough to place him among the best dressed men at the 2024 Academy Awards.

Keep reading to see another great look on another male star from "Barbie"…

_

Lookin' good, Simu Liu! No shirt, no tie, no problem — the brooch was a nice touch too.

_

"Barbie" star America Ferrera delivered our favorite look among the cast's female contingent: a pretty pink Versace chainmail dress that took more than 400 hours to make.

Keep reading for a closer look at her beautiful necklace…

_

America Ferrera wore Pomellato's Ode to Milan Castello Necklace — featuring rubellites and diamonds — to the 96th Annual Academy Awards.

_

"Barbie" star Issa Rae's 2024 Oscars dress appeared, at first glance, to be a basic black gown with some sparkle on top… but a closer look revealed that her Ami Paris dress was in fact crafted from dark green velvet that was embroidered with sequins on the bodice and across its wide belt. That subtle color shift made her look a win in our eyes.

_

Gabrielle Union shimmered in a unique silhouette: a strapless silver minidress worn atop a matching column skirt from Carolina Herrera, all accessorized with a diamond and aquamarine necklace by Tiffany & Co. "I am feeling myself," Gabrielle told E! preshow host Laverne Cox. We were feeling her look too!

_

Margot Robbie missed out on an Oscar nod for her performance in "Barbie" — and sadly, we think the ultra-structured black Versace dress she wore on the 2024 Academy Awards red carpet delivered another miss.

Keep reading to see it from a more flattering angle…

_

Margot Robbie's black sequined Versace dress had an almost entirely different silhouette when seen from the side.

_

Lupita Nyong'o stunned in a pale blue Armani Prive gown that was originally made for her in 2020 — proving her style is truly timeless.

_

Andrea Riseborough's plaid Loewe dress was fun and quirky — just not for Oscars night.

_

A winning pink look? Zendaya in this Armani Prive gown covered in sparkling black palm trees against a sunset-inspired background.

_

Florence Pugh was a vision in a silky silver Del Core gown accessorized with Bulgari jewels at the 96th Annual Academy Awards.

_

Also stunning in silky silver at the 2024 Oscars? Charlize Theron and her Grecian goddess-inspired Dior look.

Keep reading for a closer look at her decadent diamond necklaces and earrings…

_

Charlize Theron wore multiple pieces of Boucheron jewelry including the Quatre Radiant Edition pendant earrings, choker and necklace.

_

Anya Taylor-Joy also delivered a memorable silver Dior moment at the 96th Annual Academy Awards in this dress inspired by the iconic fashion house's famed "Junon" gown from the Fall/Winter 1949 collection.

_

We love The Rock, but we did not love Dwayne Johnson's silky silver suit — or all those wrinkles.

_

Hailee Steinfeld's Elie Saab gown looked a little too much like Princess Jasmine cosplay for our taste this Oscars night.

_

We loved "Killers of the Flower Moon" star and best actress nominee Lily Gladstone's look at the 2024 Oscars — and we loved the thought that went into it even more: Her midnight-blue gown was a collaboration between Gucci and Indigenous designer Joe Big Mountain of Ironhouse Quillwork, who turned porcupine quills into a stunning border on the bodice.

Keep reading for a closer look…

_

Check out the porcupine quills trimming Lily Gladstone's 2024 Oscars gown.

_

Julianne Hough's Alexandre Vauthier couture jumpsuit was just a little too voluminous, landing her on the miss list.

_

Kirsten Dunst's ivory gown by Gucci might have been super simple, but it was also ultra elegant.

_

Diane Warren is an incredible songwriter, but her flame-trimmed suit didn't earn any fire emojis from us.

_

Molly Sims' pink chiffon Georges Chakra Couture gown was pretty enough, but the ultra-low-cut bodice was more of a distraction than a winning detail.

_

We don't mind that Bradley Cooper skipped a tie (after all, we loved Ryan Gosling and Simu Liu's looks), but there's just something off about his 2024 Oscars ensemble between the double-breasted jacket, the cut of the trousers and those shoes. Next!

_

Mary Steenburgen has never looked better! The black Tom Ford column gown she wore to the 2024 Oscars was wildly elevated with a buckle detail on the bodice and a thigh-high slit.

_

Michelle Yeoh's Balenciaga gown would have been a winner if it wasn't two-toned.

_

Oscar winner Rita Moreno might be 92, but she's still a sucker for great fashion. The "West Side Story" icon arrived at the 2024 Academy Awards in this playful ruffled black Badgley Mischka gown she accessorized with long black gloves.

_

Da'Vine Joy Randolph's icy blue Oscars gown featuring voluminous sleeves and a long chiffon train was a winner — just like her: The star took home the best supporting actress Academy Award for her work in "The Holdovers" on March 10, 2024.

_

Jennifer Lawrence's polka dot Dior Haute Couture gown with a matching shawl was pretty, but ultimately, it felt a little too less-than-luxe for an event like the Academy Awards.

_

A polka dot dress we liked a lot more? Leslie Bibb's 2024 Oscars gown had that extra bit of oomph.

_

We adore Regina King but her orange Atelier Versace gown felt like something from red carpets of seasons past.

_

Come on, Kate McKinnon! You were Weird Barbie — a basic black suit doesn't do you justice!

_

Singer Becky G, who performed "The Fire Inside" from "Flamin' Hot" during the 2024 Oscars, delivered a fashion hit in this black-and-flesh-tone bustier dress by Vera Wang paired with full-length gloves.

_

Jodie Foster's custom midnight blue Loewe dress missed the mark — it was just too understated.

_

Filmmaker Ava DuVernay's pale blue Louis Vuitton dress was a big winner on the 2024 Oscars red carpet — we loved those buckled straps!

_

This sparkling wine-colored dress on Grace Gummer — who's married to "Barbie" music guru Mark Ronson and is the daughter of Meryl Streep — was a style winner on the 2024 Oscars red carpet.

_

Ncuti Gatwa — one of the Kens in "Barbie" who's also in "Masters of the Air" and is the newest Doctor on the beloved series "Doctor Who" — looked sharp on the 2024 Osars red carpet.

_

Brittany Snow stunned in a bright yellow Monet gown that she accessorized with Pomellato jewelry at the 2024 Oscars.

_

Screen Actors Guild President Fran Drescher was giving off "The Nanny" vibes in her big hair and custom Ami Paris dress, which she paired with a cropped tuxedo jacket. And we mean that in the best way.

_

Ryan Michelle Bathe looked beautiful but blended in too much in this beige gown. With husband Sterling K. Brown nominated for an Oscar at the 2024 ceremony, it was her night to shine too!

_

This haute couture velvet column gown by Tamara Ralph might have been basic black, but its unique structured neckline made it more interesting than most black dresses at the 2024 Oscars, landing Eva Logoria in the fashion winners column.

_

Never have we ever seen a more '80s-prom twist on a dress at the 2024 Oscars, Maitreyi Ramakrishnan — and we're not sure we like it.

_

Maternity style never looked so good! Vanessa Hudgens looked beautiful in Vera Wang haute couture as she announced her first pregnancy wearing a black stretch Italian cupro long-sleeve turtleneck evening gown with a floor-length hand draped sash accent at the waist.

_

Is it wrong to love a look more once you find out it's vintage? Laverne Cox impressed in this black-and-gold Benitier Plisse dress from Thierry Mugler's Autumn/Winter 1986 collection and accessorized with Mugler earrings from the designer's Autumn/Winter 1987 collection.
