Wu-Tang Clan is joining the Las Vegas residency bandwagon next year, setting up shop at the Theatre at the Virgin Hotel for two shows in February and another two in March. The Wu hasn’t revealed many details about the residency or even if all eight surviving members (and Cappadonna) will perform all four shows (Method Man actually sat out much of the NY State Of Mind Tour due to schedulig conflicts), but here’s what we do know.
When Is Wu-Tang Clan’s Las Vegas Residency?
The four confirmed shows will be on February 9 and 10 and March 22 and 23, with more shows expected to be announced in the future.
When Will Tickets Go On Sale?
Tickets for Wu-Tang Clan’s Las Vegas residency go on sale on Friday, December 15. Virgin Hotels’ upcoming events site has a slew of events with tickets ranging from $60 to $850.00 for Lainey Wilson’s upcoming homestand. That’d be a a reasonable expectation for the level of Wu-Tang tickets, and there’s sure to be a secondary market as well.
The residency is just the latest in the Wu’s efforts to increase their profile lately, which have included their Hulu show An American Saga and RZA’s symphony concerts celebrating the 30th anniversary of Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers).
Hollywood is simply mad about those revivals. If a movie or show was once popular and still has some cultural cachet, there’s a good chance it could come back in some form, even if it’s a shadow of its former self. So what of Pretty Woman, the third highest-grosser of 1990? Surely the world wouldn’t mind catching up with Vivan the sex worker and Edward the corporate shark. Alas, apparently one of them might have left this mortal (fictional) coil.
Julia Roberts says “Leave the World Behind” is both a disaster movie and a thriller, but also “a story about this family, this husband and wife, who are kind of opposites.”@GayleKing also quizzes her on iconic roles — and Roberts opens up about marriage to her “favorite human.” pic.twitter.com/laSQXvs4tm
Per Entertainment Weekly, Julia Roberts sat down for a pow-wow with CBS Mornings to talk about the lengthy apocalyptic thriller Leave the World Behind. The subject of her big breakthrough came up, with interviewer Gayle King asking her what she thinks her and Richard Gere’s characters would be up to today. Are they still a thing? Did they break up? Roberts had another idea about their fate.
“I think he passed away peacefully in his sleep from a heart attack, smiling,” Roberts replied. “And now she runs his business.”
Edward’s business, by the way, was buying up companies and breaking them up for monetary scrap iron, though at the end of the film it seemed like, thanks to Vivian, he’d had a Scrooge-ian change of heart. Maybe he got into charities instead, which would be a better business for Vivian to take over.
Though Roberts and Gere never made a Pretty Woman sequel, they did reunite at decade’s end for Runaway Bride, a more wholesome rom-com that was so different from its R-rated predecessor that it was rated PG. (Not even PG-13! The ‘90s were a turbulent decade.) Roberts had a more optimistic answer for what that couple was up to now.
“They stay together. He doesn’t die in this one,” she said. “They’re gonna stay together.”
Pretty Woman currently streams on AMC+, while Runaway Bride now lives on Netflix.
We are living in a strange time for streaming. On the one hand, there are so many options for you to pick from when it comes to entertainment! On the other hand, there are so many options for you to pick from when it comes to entertainment. It’s a tough conundrum, one sites like Max make even worse by periodically removing shows with no explanation, as they did this week with the acclaimed superhero drama, Watchmen.
According to Vulture, the move was not intended to offend and/or harm Watchmen fans, and it was just a glitch. The title wasn’t slated to leave the streamer this month, though HBO has been known to remove shows at any given moment with little-to-know warning or reasoning. It keeps viewers on their toes!
Watchmen returned to Max this morning, so you can Watch those Men at any given time. Even though there is only one season of the series, a second season was never officially ruled out, as long as Regina King is back on board.
Even though Watchmen returned to its home streamer safe and sound, it just confirms the daunting reality that any of your favorite shows could disappear at any moment, which means that the streamers are getting way too much power. It’s never too late to buy that DVD box set of Scrubs.
Way back in the spring of 2021, “Party Hard” rocker Andrew W.K. and 2 Broke Girls and Dollface star Kat Dennings let the world know that they were engaged. They seemingly didn’t feel any urgency to get their wedding over with, as the pair only just officially tied the knot on November 27.
They shared details and photos of the wedding in a new Vogue feature, which notes the wedding took place at their Los Angeles home. Dennings noted, “We realized that a small home wedding was too cozy to resist. Plus, all our stuff was there so we wouldn’t have to pack anything.”
She also said of the DIY ceremony prep, “I wanted our wedding to feel completely different from an ‘industry event’ in every way. I even handmade all of our wedding florals, aisle pieces, and our ceremony arch, which took three entire days. I wanted to be hands-on with the entire experience and feel like we had built our moment together from scratch.”
Dennings gave her summary of the ceremony itself, saying, “It was incredibly emotional for both of us, and the love surrounding us was very palpable. My dad had passed away a month and a half before, and I had a moment where I thought we should delay the wedding — but I realized it was even more of a reason to grasp any joyous feeling where I could. My wonderful mom walked me down the aisle, and I felt very present and filled with gratitude for Andrew and our loved ones during the ceremony. I felt truly lucky to be marrying such a kind and loving man. The ceremony itself was kind of a blur, but in the best way. We just looked into each other’s eyes and were so excited to finally be husband and wife.”
They kept the guest list small, as only about 15 people were in attendance, including close friends Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song. After the ceremony, the bride and groom and their guests hung out in their home for hours, which probably wasn’t as raging as the parties W.K. is used to but was certainly more meaningful.
True crime shouldn’t be appealing to watch. Not many true crime junkies (including yours truly) would deny as much, yet it’s impossible to fully sate viewers’ curiosity about the dangers that lurk both in the shadows and in plain sight. This year, the streaming services kept those triggering documentaries and dramatizations coming, and some of these offerings already landed on our Top 50 list. Yet if you are looking for the most addictive true stories to watch in the true crime realm this year, then look no further.
True crime devotees, the time has come for a deep dive into the 1993 Waco siege, which somehow lasted 51 whole days. Decades later, the story of David Koresh’s enigmatic cult-leaderdom still has revelations to yield, and this project promises to reveal unearthed footage that emerged from within the FBI Crisis Negotiation Unit, along with raw footage from news coverage that never materialized on TV. Director Tiller Russell (Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer) helms this story, so expect intensity.
Keira Knightley and Carrie Coon star pick up journalist roles in a film that sheds light on the inherent misogyny behind the violent crimes at the center of this notorious serial killer story. In the process, they also battle a few similarly-themed obstacles while attempting to bring this story to justice. Somehow as well, their dogged investigative dives not only found opposition from law enforcement but also their own profession, and this project delivers a scathing view of how this city’s 1960s victims were viewed by those in true power.
The Fear City gang got together to do a deep dive on John Gotti for the people who haven’t seen all those documentaries from decades past (or his family’s reality shows, for that matter). This docuseries takes glimpses from opposing sides of the legal system, but eventually (yup) one side won, and that would be the FBI. This one engrossed the Netflix audience for a few weeks, so it’s definitely worth a whirl even if you have already brushed up on this mafioso’s history.
Timing might have been everything with this series, given that a season released in conjunction with the real-life trial that ended with formerly prominent attorney and disgraced heir Alex Murdaugh convicted of murder. That trial recently ended, and a verdict came swiftly regarding the deaths of Alex’s son and wife; this series aims to take a hard look at the evidence, along with damage control from the defendant, who may have been financially motivated, at the very least. The series also takes a grim look at the legal system and those who know how to (again, allegedly) manipulate while painting their own sordid stories.
Emily Blunt portrays a down-on-her-luck single mom who launches a new career alongside Chris Evans’ pharmaceutical sales rep. Not a great idea, ultimately, given that she becomes involved in a racketeering scheme and begins to realize that this company’s rampant success is coming at a ghastly price for humanity. This is a dramatized version of the rise and fall of Insys Therapeutics, which peddled an opioid-based painkiller. That company no longer exists, and you will definitely find out why from this movie. It’s not quite as devastating of a Big Pharma takedown as The Fall Of The House Of Usher, but it comes close, albeit with a different tone.
This year, Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon picked up a somber theme against the Osage, but crimes against the Cheyenne and Crow reservations take center stage here. This project charts the longstanding epidemic of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women in Big Horn County, Montana. Through in-depth interviews of Native families and local law enforcement, Native journalists persist in seeking enough information to secure a rare arrest in these cases. What emerges is a powerful and stirring portrait of communities that hope to heal long-lasted wounds of grieving families, who have been attempting to seek the truth for decades on end.
The mere act of dating usually adds up to some type of fiasco. Adding the notion of “twin flames” into the mix can get even messier (seeMegan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly). Do you want to add a cult for an even messier trainwreck? No thank you. Yet that is precisely what happened when so-called “Twin Flames Universe” online community founders Shaleia and Jeff Divine — who are no vision of domestic harmony, as this docuseries reveals — began selling online courses to those looking for their other dysfunctional half. That community still somehow exists IRL, but ideally, this Netflix project will save a decent chunk of people from falling into the ultimate toxic pit coupled with an exploitative couple who actually kind-of hate each other! What a disaster, albeit one that people could not stop watching.
If you’ve seen the dramatized (and insurgent) limited series Unbelievable (2019), then you’ll already understand the heartbreaking theme of this series. A few episodes into this project, there will be no more obvious truth to the view than understanding why most sexual assault victims do not report their crimes, and even if they take that step, prosecution and testimony are a whole other nightmare. The Emmy-winning Rachel de Leon puts her investigative reporting skills to the ultimate test after discovering a disturbing pattern of authorities turning the tables on women who do report these crimes. It’s an infuriating watch and a true experience for countless victims.
The second Candy Montgomery series (see also Hulu’s Candy) proves that the ax-murdering adulterer is having a bit of a moment. As well, David E. Kelley seldom misses, somehow turning a gruesome crime story into a riveting piece of entertainment with disturbingly good performances by Elizabeth Olsen and Jesse Plemons as the two-timing spouses. They are both fantastic at being awful, but Krysten Ritter chews up all the Texas scenery as Candy’s confidante as sides line up for and against the character of the accused in the face of an undeniable truth: she killed Betty Gore (portrayed with every ounce of available anxiety by Lily Rabe). This story never pretends otherwise, and Tom Pelphrey’s character milks his courtroom performance in a bid to be the Slimiest TV Lawyer Of The Year. Overall, this is an immersive watch, and you might feel like you are right there in the (cringeworthy) church choir while a horrible soap opera unfolds. Many humans are looking for that missing puzzle piece in life, but two people clearly went down the wrong path while doing so.
Sydney Sweeney portrays Reality Winner, whose name once attracted as much attention as the prison sentence that she received. The Air Force vet and former NSA translator was a 25-year-old fitness instructor living an uneventful life when FBI agents descended upon her home. The FBI’s actual transcript fuels this film’s dialogue to show what transpired between agents and the accused, and Sweeney begins by toeing the line on whether Reality leaked information about 2016 election interference by Russia to the press. The Euphoria actress’ skills are showcased in a different way than you’ve seen before now, as a seemingly ordinary 20-something whose life will forever be transformed. It’s a fascinating, tension-filled watch as Sweeney painstakingly parcels out a career-defining performance, and the walls close in around a doomed whistleblower.
This is a lot to take in, but I believe in you: Tom Cruise, famous actor and cake gift giver, is reportedly dating the ex-wife of a Russian diamond dealer.
According to the Daily Mail, the Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning: Part One star was “spotted canoodling at a party in London’s Mayfair with socialite Elsina Khayrova, 36, the daughter of a prominent Russian MP and ex-wife of a diamond-trading oligarch.” They were canoodling? This is serious.
A source told the Daily Mail that Cruise and Khayrova were “inseparable, clearly a couple. He seemed to be besotted with her.”
The former model, who is a British citizen, was previously married to Russian tycoon Dmitry Tsetkov… Their very acrimonious divorce hit the headlines in the summer after Miss Khayrova was accused of hiding substantial assets from her ex-husband, including her [$1.2] million handbag collection. She was previously seen in court in 2022 when ordered to pay [$147,036) that she owed to the company who installed fountains in her Surrey home
Cruise hasn’t “officially” been with anyone since his marriage to Katie Holmes ended in 2012, although there were rumors that he was dating Mission: Impossible co-star Hayley Atwell; those proved to be unfounded. Any woman who wants to be with him has to compete with his one true love: driving motorcycles off cliffs for our enjoyment. Good luck to Khayrova (allegedly).
Last week, Timothée Chalamet dropped the bombshell news that his mom has declared Wonka to be her favorite movie starring her son. The actor has been racking up rave reviews for his performance as the famed chocolatier, but more importantly, his mom was just glad to see him in a less dour and cannibalistic role where he actually smiles.
“This is maybe her favorite thing I’ve ever been in,” Chalamet told PEOPLE: “I think she saw Bones and All and said, ‘You gotta be happier in your movies!’”
However, there’s been an important update. Chalamet has set the record straight that, actually, Wonka is not his mom’s favorite movie starring her son. According to the actor, she called him right away after seeing his quote in PEOPLE, and clearly, wanted the public record to show her true cinematic opinions. Timothée Chalamet’s mom loves accurate film journalism. We’re always saying this.
“I thought this was her favorite movie. She called me yesterday, she corrected me. She said Beautiful Boy was her favorite,” Chalamet told Good Morning America. “When she saw this, she did say, ‘It’s nice to see you smile.’”
You can see Timmy being a good boy and making sure everyone knows his mom’s actual favorite film of his below:

The iHeartRadio Jingle Ball festive concert series continues. At the beginning of the tour, each show received rave reviews. But when Nicki Minaj pulled out of her promoted Chicago appearance and a Taylor Swift impersonator popped out in Detroit, ticketholders for future stops grew nervous. But, so far, the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Philadelphia concert set for tonight (December 12) seems to be going well.
“Standing Next To You” singer Usher will serve as the featured headliner. Other performers set to hit the Wells Fargo Center stage include OneRepublic, 2024 Grammy Best New Artist nominee Jelly Roll, boy band Big Time Rush, “Pacer” rapper Doechii, K-pop girl group (G)I-DLE, and “Daylight” singer David Kushner. So, what time does everything kick off?
What Time Does iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Philadelphia Start?
According to iHeartRadio’s official website, tonight’s performances are set to begin at 7:30 p.m. ET. In preparation for the expected massive crowd, the Wells Fargo Center will open its doors as early as 6:30 p.m. ET. Limited tickets are still available for the show. Find more information here. There are only two remaining stops (Atlanta and Fort Lauderdale) for the 2023 iHeartRadio Jingle Ball series.
For those who’d rather watch the playback of the concerts in the comfort of their own homes, they can do so soon. A specialized television broadcast will air across ABC stations on Thursday, December 21, at 8 p.m. ET. The day after, the program will be available to enjoy on Hulu.
