Elizabeth Gillies and Victoria Justice had an absolutely victorious reunion that had Ariana Grande feeling emotional.
Elizabeth and Victoria—who costarred with Ariana on Nickelodeon's Victorious…
The boy who played Harry Potter is ever grateful for the role that knocked down all the doors for him, but he’s also been busy scrubbing any child-star residue from his acting image, starting with his raw, nudity-requiring Broadway debut in Equus in 2007. He followed that up with the more chipper How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying in 2011. For years he has alternated between theater (The Cripple of Inishmaan, Rosencrantz and Gildenstern Are Dead) and film (The Woman in Black, Victor Frankenstein), leaning heavily into the dramatic and/or the absurd.
To be sure, if there’s some dark humor to be found, Radcliffe is into it, whether on TV playing a morphine-addicted physician in A Young Doctor’s Notebook or a low-level angel trying to prevent God from ending the world in Miracle Workers—or playing a flatulent corpse in 2016’s Swiss Army Man. Since then, he played the villain opposite Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum in their 2022 rom-com The Lost City and portrayed musician “Weird Al” Yankovic in Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, a biographical parody film.
Sober since 2010, Radcliffe has also been open about drinking to excess back when the Harry Potter franchise was nearing its finish and, already more famous than he ever dreamed, he was anxious about his next step in life.
“In my case, the quickest way to forget about the fact that you’re being watched is to get very drunk,” he said on Off Camera With Sam Jones in 2019.
“And then as you get very drunk, you become aware that, ‘Oh, people are watching more now because now I’m getting very drunk, so I should probably drink more to ignore that more.'”
Radcliffe has been in a relationship with actress Erin Darke since meeting her on the set of 2013’s Kill Your Darlings, in which he played “Howl” poet Alan Ginsberg.
For years, LC’s BFF signaled she preferred to be excluded from this narrative. When an exec gauged her interest in returning to The Hills, “I was like, ‘F–k no!'” she recalled on a 2018 episode of her Lady Lovin’ podcast. “I don’t want any association with any of those people. The dissociation from all those people is what I’m hungry for.”
Which, to be fair, sometimes that happens when you change careers. Now based in NYC, The International Culinary Center grad and The Lo-Down author founded Love Wellness, a line of personal care products for women, in 2016.
Aside from Lauren, she told E! News in 2024, “I’m not in constant touch with a ton of people from the show, but it’s been 20 years. I don’t know a lot of people that are still on a day-to-day basis with people that they went to high school with. But I’m very friendly with everybody and, if I saw them, I’d run up to them and give them a big hug.”
Because she’s got a lot of love to give.
“I have grown into the life that I always dreamed for myself,” she told E!. “I’ve achieved a lot. So, for me, it’s just about maintaining my status quo: Happy, healthy, family and great spirits, and spend a lot of time with people that I care about.”
57-year-old woman becomes the admiration of many as she dresses up in school uniform to attend her secondary school’s 40th reunion.
The photos were shared online by her daughter, @maintishe on the social networking site, X.
It was gathered that the woman, who is a mother of 4, had attended the Methodist High School Arigbajo, Ogun.
In the photos she shared, her mom was seen beautifully dressed in her former secondary school’s uniform.
@maintishe, sharing the photos, wrote …
“my mummy looks so pretty at her secondary school’s 40th reunion 🥺😍

@spunkTsar said: “Stay away from older women. “The older women”
@whalesmyke said: “She’s beautiful. I’m an old student of Methodist High School Arigbajo too. Great MHS ✊🏽.”

2. But wait, Lance wasn’t the first fifth member of ‘N Sync!
That role was originally played by Jason Galasso, who had known Fatone from choir in their high school days and was dabbling in the singing-group arts when he got a page (1990s, FTW) out of nowhere from his old acquaintance. Coincidentally, he also knew Chasez because, as Galasso explained on The Digital Get Down podcast in 2019, he “used to kind of hang out with The Mickey Mouse Club” stars like Chase Hampton and Keri Russell.
After they “locked in perfectly” on a rendition of Boyz II Men‘s “End of the Road,” that was it, he was in the as-yet unnamed group. “I remember I’m like, ‘Dang, Justin’s young!'” he recalled. “But then I heard him sing, I’m like ‘Oh, it doesn’t matter how old he is, he can sing his butt off.”
At the same time, however, the bass singer was also in a three-man group called Unreal, “so I’m still trying to decide, you know, what I want to do, what direction I want to go in as far as which group I want to go with,” Galasso, who’s in the mortgage loan business these days, recalled. “Because I remember, the first time Lou Pearlman brought over some music, he was thinking about the type of music that we would be doing, and I come from an R&B, hip-hop background. That’s my love, my heart, my soul.”
So when Pearlman came over with “this European-style techno, I was just like, ‘Hmm, okay.'” So, he went ahead and traveled with the other guys in Unreal to Atlanta to cut a demo, which he thought turned out great.
Meanwhile, ‘N Sync was starting to fashion a look and they were talking about putting a showcase together for Disney’s Pleasure Island. They even took a field trip to Shaquille O’Neal‘s house to check out his home studio in Orlando, but they had not yet recorded any music. And, more consequentially for Galasso, they hadn’t yet signed any contracts.
Pretty soon, both groups were trying to get him to sign. Galasso said he took the dueling contracts to a lawyer and, while the deal with the trio was pretty standard issue, Pearlman had himself written into the ‘N Sync contract as a sixth member, and that contract was “thick as a phone book.” He felt that the other members of ‘N Sync were more gung-ho than he was about the deal—which was true, because they all proceeded to sign it, whether they truly understood what it entailed or not.
So Galasso ultimately went with the group that wasn’t ‘N Sync.
We’re never letting go of this moment.
Kate Winslet had the support of her Titanic leading man Leonardo DiCaprio at the screening for her upcoming film Lee in Los Angeles Nov. 19. The pair—who starred as Rose DeWitt and Jack Dawson—were all smiles as they shared a sweet embrace and posed for pictures.
For the occasion, the 49-year-old actress—who plays photojournalist Lee Miller, who photographed WWII for Vogue—looked chic in an all-black ensemble. For his part, Leonardo, 50, looked dapper in a relaxed blue suit, which he layered over a black shirt.
Aside from the 1997 Oscar-winning film, Kate and Leo starred alongside each other in 2008’s Revolutionary Road. The duo also reunited in 2017 at the 4th Annual Saint-Tropez Gala. And had another very emotional reunion in 2021.
“I couldn’t stop crying,” she recalled to The Guardian in 2021. “I’ve known him for half my life!”
Dion shared that she had been diagnosed with a “very rare” progressive neurological disorder called stiff-person syndrome, surely the first time that most people had ever heard of it.
“As you know, I’ve always been an open book,” she said in an Instagram video. “I wasn’t ready to say anything before, but I’m ready now. I’ve been dealing with problems with my health for a long time, and it’s been really difficult for me to face these challenges and to talk about everything that I’ve been going through.”
She suffered muscle spasms that affected “every aspect” of her daily life, Dion explained, making it difficult to walk sometimes and, saddest of all, it was going to be impossible for her to go back on tour as she’d been planning.
“I’m working hard with my sports medicine therapist every day to build back my strength and my ability to perform again,” Dion said. “But I have to admit, it’s been a struggle.”
According to the National Institutes of Health, symptoms include stiff muscles in the torso, arms, and legs, and greater sensitivity to noise, touch, and emotional distress, all of which can trigger muscle spasms.
Mariska Hargitay Mistaken for Real Cop by Lost Child While Filming Law & Order: SVU
Detective Amanda Rollins is back in action—and with a whole new title.
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit alum Kelli Giddish, who left the NBC drama in 2022, makes her return in a sneak peek at the show’s Oct. 17 episode.
In the clip, Giddish—who is now working as a sergeant for the NYPD Intelligence Bureau—has a heartwarming reunion with former partner Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay).
“Sergeant!” Benson exclaims before giving Rollins a giant hug, adding, “Your first city-wide briefing in the intelligence division, huh?”
After being introduced to Rollins’ new partner, played by John Clarence Stewart, Benson asks her longtime friend how she’s liking her new gig in Intelligence.
“Don’t take this the wrong way,” Rollins says, “but I love it. It’s like getting to eavesdrop on the whole world. And I want to thank you for putting in a word for me and for steering me in the right direction. I missed my family with all these long hours and, before this, I missed who I was even more.”
