Megyn Kelly compares Kamala Harris to Elle Woods

ZUMAPRESS.com / MEGA

Megyn Kelly compared Kamala Harris to the Legally Blonde character Elle Woods during her interview with Stephen Colbert. While the film — which stars Reese Witherspoon — has a cult following, Kelly wasn't exactly complimenting the politician.

"This is what I find interesting about her," Kelly said. "It's how empty she is. The only time she really gets animated is when she talks about race, abortion, or herself. Truly, I'm a connoisseur now of this woman's commentary, and those are the three things that really light her up, and the giggling about when she gets to herself. 'I call them my baby nieces, like, that's something special about me. I have this term of endearment about my two nieces. You see, I put the word baby in front of them … That's what I do. That's my thing.'"

"And then she gets equally animated when she gets to her stupid AirPod choice … It's ridiculous," Kelly said, as Harris defended her use of wired headphones with Stephen Colbert. "She comes alive on the subject of 'Me.' Reminds me of this gal from Legally Blonde."

Kelly later showed a video of Woods yelling, "Me!" while in the halls of Harvard.

Harris went on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to discuss her new book, 107 Days, and her decision not to run for governor of California. Harris' book documents her transition from supporting Joe Biden's presidential campaign to then replacing the president after he dropped out. The former senator also explored how she views government differently after losing the election to Donald Trump.

Aside from Harris, Kelly has been critical of Colbert's response to CBS firing him and pulling the plug on The Late Show franchise.

"Many of us have had very public cancelations and some were absolutely brutal," she said after the news dropped. "And we didn't invite all our friends to come cry on the set and say, 'Poor poor her. Poor poor him. American democracy will not be the same.' Some of us took it like professionals, then picked ourselves up, dusted ourselves off, and moved on with life. Is this how it's going to be for the next year? Watching this crybaby try to play the victim that his show got cancelled? Grow up. It's called television, you toddler."

Lionsgate and Suretone Pictures have unveiled the chilling first trailer for Do Not Enter, a thriller that plunges a group of urban explorers into a deadly hunt for hidden treasure inside a decaying, haunted hotel.

The film marks the feature debut of veteran music video director Marc Klasfeld and is penned by horror script writer Stephen Susco (The Grudge, Unfriended).

Produced by Suretone Entertainment's Jordan Schur, Do Not Enter promises a tense, genre-bending ride that fuses paranormal terror with gritty human conflict.

Set in an abandoned hotel rumored to house a long-lost gangster's fortune, the story follows a group of young thrill-seekers who stumble into danger from all sides, including a violent rival faction of explorers and a spectral force lurking in the shadows.

Klasfeld, whose visual style has defined videos for artists like Katy Perry and JAY-Z, called the film a deeply personal venture.

"I have waited decades to find the right feature film project to which I could truly dedicate myself," Klasfeld said in a statement. "The passion I have found to make Do Not Enter all it can be is extraordinary, and I honestly can't wait for the world to see what we have."

Combined with Klasfeld's dynamic visuals, the film is poised to attract horror fans and thrill-seekers alike.

Jordan Schur, the film's producer and founder of Suretone Pictures, has long worked at the intersection of music and film.

His previous credits include Lone Survivor and Warrior.

With Do Not Enter, Schur returns to the horror genre with a film that blends myth, greed and the supernatural.

The trailer teases unsettling images of decrepit hallways, flickering lights and frantic chases, hinting at the terror that lies within the hotel's crumbling walls.

The tone is grim and fast-paced, suggesting a modern horror experience that also pays homage to classic urban legend thrillers.

No release date has been announced, but Lionsgate is expected to distribute the film theatrically later this year.

Do Not Enter stars a young ensemble cast and introduces fresh faces in a perilous setting where not everyone will make it out alive.

As competition for the gangster's hidden treasure escalates, so too does the wrath of an entity that's been waiting far too long.

The trailer is now streaming on Lionsgate's official YouTube channel and across social platforms.

Do Not Enter's official trailer is now streaming on YouTube and Instagram.

Bill Maher lists his biggest grievances with Trump

YouTube/Real Time with Bill Maher

Bill Maher opened up about his biggest grievances with Donald Trump, as the comedian continues to dissect the president's second administration.

"Let's take stock of the first half of the first year of Trump's second term, and make some rational decisions about what to lose our s*** over," Maher said while discussing liberals' tendency to get distracted by the president's lesser offenses.

While Trump continues to make headlines, Maher noted that his antics are distracting from the "domestic army of masked troops" in ICE that are impacting urban communities.

"I'm not incensed. … I just don't have room," Maher said. "Right after he got elected in November, I said — here and everywhere else I could — he got the White House, but this time, he's not going to get my mind. There's only so many f*** to give."

"Steve Bannon famously said that the way you win is to flood the zone with s***. You want to help him with that? Great, you do you, but I'm not chasing every brain fart down the rabbit hole," he continued. "So therefore, here is my 1/8 of the term scorecard for what actually matters: Turning the Environmental Protection Agency into the pollution Protection Agency. Yes, that's going to matter. All the people who will lose health care and all the debt that will be run up from the Big, Beautiful Bill. Yes, that matters."

"Turning the Justice Department into the national revenge agency, firing all the inspector generals, maybe firing the head of the Federal Reserve, letting Doge destroy lives here and abroad in a way that didn't have to go down like that in order to slim the government down, which it didn't do anyway, creating a Domestic army of masked troops, rounding people up and sending them off to detention centers and foreign prisons? Yeah," Maher ranted.

He went on to share a tip liberals, saying, "Life is complicated, and Democrats need to be less emotional and more focused."

"Get a life, stop making [Trump] your whole personality," Maher said of Democrats. "So, please, when I'm out there, no more, 'Bill, did you just see what he did today?' If you don't even have to say who 'he' is, you already lost, because 'he' is already living too rent-free in your head."

'Family Guy' boss heaps praise on 'South Park'

FOX

Seth McFarlane has joked about other adult cartoons over the years, but the Family Guy creator heaped praise on South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone in an interview that was released after they fearlessly mocked Donald Trump on the season 27 premiere.

"I would never trade our animation team for anything on Family Guy, but their production cycle of, what is it, like, two weeks? It's kind of amazing," McFarlane said on The Ringer's "The Town" podcast.

South Park is known for its fast turnaround and cultural commentary. Parker and Stone typically write and produce new episodes in just six day.

"It's pretty incredible. … Any show that lasts that long is pretty astounding," McFarlane said. "Our shows take about 10 months to a year to produce each episode, so we have to really kind of guess what the world is going to look like, which obviously gets harder and harder."

In the past, Parker and McFarlane have publicly slighted each other.

"I just want to say for the record right now, we've seen Family Guy. … We do hate it," Parker previously said, according to TheWrap. McFarlane later told Rolling Stone that he didn't know where the "venom" came from.

"It'd be interesting to know where it comes from because I don't know them," McFarlane once told Howard Stern.

While the animosity between the television creators seems to have cooled, the creators of South Park are now facing "venom" from the White House, which publicly criticized the show shortly after the new season debuted.

"The Left's hypocrisy truly has no end – for years they have come after South Park for what they labeled as 'offense' content, but suddenly they are praising the show," White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers said in a statement. "Just like the creators of South Park, the Left has no authentic or original content, which is why their popularity continues to hit record lows."

"This show hasn't been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention," the statement continued. "President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country's history – and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump's hot streak."

SJP says goodbye to Carrie Bradshaw with a poem 

Sarah Jessica Parker bid an emotional farewell to Carrie Bradshaw.

Following showrunner Michael Patrick King's announcement that the S** and the City spinoff series And Just Like That… is coming to an end, the actress took to Instagram to share a heartfelt poem about playing the iconic character since 1998.

"She has made the hardest, worst and best decisions. Traveled near and far for the new, the vintage, friends and love. Changed homes, time zones, boyfriends, her mind, her shoes, her hair, but never her love and devotion to New York City," Parker wrote of her alter-ego while captioning a slew of images from both the original show and the reboot.

"Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte, there will never be better friends," the 60-year-old remarked of the characters portrayed by Cynthia Nixon, Kim Cattrall and Kristin Davis. "What great fortune for Carrie to come to know and love Seema (Sarita Choudhury) and LTW (Nicole Ari Parker), most divine new connections."

"Carrie Bradshaw has dominated my professional heartbeat for 27 years. I think I have loved her most of all. I know others have loved her just as I have. Been frustrated, condemned and rooted for her. The symphony of all those emotions has been the greatest soundtrack and most consequential companion. Therefore, the most sentimental and profound gratitude and lifetime of debt. To you all," she continued.

"MPK and I together recognized, as we have in the past, this chapter complete. AJLT was all joy, adventure, the greatest kind of hard work alongside the most extraordinary talent of 380 that includes all the brilliant actors who joined us. I am better for every single day I spent with you. It will be forever before I forget. The whole thing. Thank you all," Parker concluded the emotional update.

In a message to fans shared on Instagram, King dropped the bomb that the franchise will be concluding after the current season of And Just Like That…, which debuted in 2021.

"And just like that… the ongoing storytelling of the S** and the City universe is coming to an end," the executive producer wrote. "While I was writing the last episode of And Just Like That… Season 3, it became clear to me that this might be a wonderful place to stop. Along with Sarah Jessica Parker, Casey Bloys and Sarah Aubrey, we decided to end the popular series this year with a two-part finale and extended the original series order from ten episodes to 12. It's with great gratitude we thank all the viewers who have let these characters into their homes and their hearts over these many years."

The last two episodes will launch on HBO Max at 9 p.m. ET/ 6 p.m. PT on August 7 and August 14.

Megyn Kelly hires major player from first Trump admin

Megyn Kelly has tapped Donald Trump's former White House communications director Hope Hicks to serve as the Chief Operating Officer at her independent media company, Devil May Care Media.

"Hope Hicks is exactly the kind of woman I want running my company with me — strong, smart, strategic and the embodiment of class and poise," Kelly told the New York Post.

"She's at the top of a growing media conglomerate and there's no limit to where she can take it; my best-in-the-business staff and I are thrilled to have her on board," she added.

After Kelly left her television career, she found success with her podcast "The Megyn Kelly Show," but the commentator is now expanding her business to include a roster of talent. While Kelly hosts "The Megyn Kelly Show" and "AM Update with Megyn Kelly," her media empire will continue to grow.

Before Kelly hired her, Hicks had been running her own media consulting firm after leaving the first Trump administration. She served as the press secretary for the president's 2016 presidential campaign and was a communications director for Trump from 2017 to 2018.

"I am incredibly humbled and thrilled to be joining Megyn and her team in continuing to build what is undoubtedly a flourishing business," she said.
