‘AVENGERS: ENDGAME’ WINS BIG AT MTV MOVIE & TV AWARDS – (06/18/2019)
Marvel’s Avengers: Endgame won big at the 2019 MTV Movie & TV Awards, which aired last night.
Endgame took home Best Movie, winning over BlacKkKlansman, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before and Us.
Endgame director Anthony Russo accepted the award and presented video speeches from stars Chris Hemsworth (Thor) and Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man.) The duo thanked fans, late Marvel writer and creator Stan Lee, and Russo.
Endgame also won Best Hero for Downey and Best Villain for Josh Brolin, who portrayed the all-powerful Thanos.
HBO’s Game of Thrones took home the Golden Popcorn trophy for Best Show over Big Mouth, Riverdale, Schitt’s Creek and The Haunting of Hill House.
In the acting categories, Elisabeth Moss won Best Performance in a Show for The Handmaid’s Tale, and Lady Gaga took home the Best Performance in a Movie Trophy for A Star is Born.
Jada Pinkett Smith was honored with the Trailblazer Award, while Dwayne Johnson was presented with the Generation Award.
Host Zachary Levi started things off by poking fun at the night’s categories and some of the celebrities in attendance including Dwayne Johnson, Kumail Nanjiani and Dave Bautista.
The Shazam! star noted how most of the audience was a nerd at one point before showing off unflattering photos of Johnson, Nanjiani and Bautista. Johnson’s photo featured the actor sporting a fanny pack while Bautista looked skinny and half his now muscular size.
Levi then shared an uplifting message for viewers at home, telling them to start loving the person that they are.
Meanwhile, Johnny “Bananas” Devenanzio pulled a Kanye West at Saturday’s taping of the awards show when Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta won over The Challenge in the Reality Royalty category. However, viewers didn’t get to see it. Producers cut out Devenanzio’s speech from Monday’s airing, after the reality star took the mic to let audience members know that he and the rest of his The Challenge stars deserved the award.
“We finally won! After all these years, it’s about time MTV finally gives ‘The Challenge’ the recognition it deserves,” he told the crowd. “All the other shows that got nominated are essentially paying rent in the genre we created.” The reality star was reportedly removed from the stage eventually and the cast of Love & Hip Hop got a chance to accept the award.
Other highlights throughout the night included Bazzi performing “Paradise,” Lizzo’s first ever awards show performance with her hit song “Juice,” and presenters including Aubrey Plaza, Nick Kroll, Tiffany Haddish, Elisabeth Moss, and more.

Ariana Grande could be the next Catfish co-host, according to showrunner Nev Schulman.
In an interview with TMZ, Schulman said his dream is the have the 25-year-old singer co-host with him, especially because she’s such a huge fan of the show.
Schulman was told by his followers social media that Ariana had been watching an episode of Catfish recently, and shared clips on her Instagram Stories.
“I didn’t even know it had happened, but a couple of weeks ago I started getting a lot of mentions on Instagram,” he explained. “People were saying ‘Oh my God! Oh My God! Ariana Grande is watching Catfish!” “So I go to her Instagram page, and honestly it was kinda the coolest thing ever. The button says ‘Follow back,’” Schulman continued.
Nev said he later contacted Ariana and thanked her for watching the show, which then led to the pair discussing the singer making an appearance on the MTV reality show.
He did note that Ariana is extremely busy with her Sweetener Tour these days, but he seems hopeful it’s only a matter of time before she appears on future episodes of the reality series.
Max Joseph was the longtime co-host for the show, but decided to pursue a filmmaking career last year.

ED SHEERAN STARS IN ACTUAL HEINZ KETCHUP COMMERCIAL – BASED ON HIS IDEA – (06/18/2019)
Grammy winner Ed Sheeran has finally made his real dream come true by starring in a Heinz ketchup commercial.
It’s no secret that Ed Sheeran is a longtime fan of Heinz Ketchup. He’s professed his love for it on Twitter, in interviews, and he even has the Heinz Ketchup logo tattooed on his arm. In April, Sheeran decided to take his relationship with Heinz ketchup to the next level. He posted a photo with his beloved condiment of choice, said he had an idea for a commercial and tagged the Heinz social media team.
Now, the commercial has made its big debut.
On YouTube, Heinz says their “Ed Sheeran x Heinz” advertisement is actually based on one of Sheerhan’s own experiences.
The ad starts with the words, “Based on a real DM from Ed Sheeran.” In it, Sheerhan enters a “Super Posh Restaurant,” the type of place that has chandeliers, classical music and “way too many forks.” When he gets his “super fancy” meal, Sheerhan pulls out a bottle of Heinz Ketchup and pours it all over his plate as everyone else looks on aghast.
Heinz said one-third of its Instagram activity – including mentions and tags – is related to Sheeran and his love of the ketchup. The brand will be offering a special edition ketchup bottle – called “EdChup” – as part of the campaign.
In the comments section, it says, “Heinz Tomato Ketchup superfan Ed Sheeran, came to us with a great idea for a Heinz Advert based on his own experience. We were thrilled to make it happen. From one super fan to another. It has to be Ed Sheeran and Heinz.”

ARIANA GRANDE BREAKS DOWN DURING EMOTIONAL CONCERT IN MAC MILLER’S HOMETOWN – (06/14/2019)
Ariana Grande’s latest concert took an emotional turn.
Ariana paid special tribute to her late ex, Mac Miller, during her concert in his hometown of Pittsburgh Wednesday night. According to concertgoers, she played the rapper’s music over the speakers at PPG Paints Arena before she took the stage. She also reportedly had an empty seat reserved for him.
“At the Ariana Grande concert in pburgh and Mac’s album is playing throughout the stadium before the show <33,” one fan tweeted.
Another wrote, “Ariana really had a Mac Miller playlist for the music before the show and she had an empty seat reserved for him. she’s so strong.”
During her opening performance of “Raindrops (An Angel Cried),” which is thought to be about the end of her relationship with Mac, she broke down and was unable to finish the song. She choked up again when she tried to sing the line “Wish I could say thank you to Malcolm/’cause he was an angel” in “thank u, next” – Mac’s birth name was Malcolm McCormick. With the help of the crowd, she made it through the song.
Miller died in September at the age of 26 from an accidental drug overdose. He had fentanyl and cocaine in his system at the time of his death. The two had dated from 2016 to the spring of 2018.

MILEY CYRUS RELEASES ASHLEY O’S ‘BLACK MIRROR’ VIDEO: Ashley O, the purple-haired pop star portrayed by Miley Cyrus in the new Black Mirror episode “Rachel, Jack and Ashley Too” on Netflix, stars in the new video for “On a Roll,” the song and video snippets seen and heard throughout the episode. “On a Roll” is a reworking of Nine Inch Nails’ classic song “Head Like a Hole.” In the clip, Miley as Ashley sings on a lit-up set while wearing a white vinyl two-piece outfit, surrounded by a troupe of backup dancers. It appears to be a normal pop video until near the end, when the picture appears to split and crack, like the graphic that opens Black Mirror. In between those cracks, the picture switches to black and white, and there are flashes of Ashley O looking upset and giving the finger. There are also scenes of Ashley O’s manager and aunt, Catherine, played by Susan Pourfar.

JUSTIN BIEBER WASN’T SERIOUS ABOUT TOM CRUISE FIGHT – (06/13/2019)
Justin Bieber says he was “just playing” when he asked Tom Cruise to fight him over social media.
Bieber reached out to UFC boss Dana White on Twitter earlier this week to if she’d be willing to stage a bout between himself and the actor, but he now claims the tweet was just a “random” joke, and wasn’t serious.
When asked if he really intends to fight Cruise, 56, Justin said: “Nah, I was just playing. The story is I saw an interview with him, and it was just on my mind … I don’t know why I thought about it. It was just a random tweet. I do that stuff sometimes.”
And the 25-year-old singer says even if Tom did agree to the grapple, he’d probably lose because Tom is “big” and has added strength thanks to being a father.
Speaking to TMZ, he added: “But I’m pretty sure Tom would … I’m pretty sure he’d whoop my a** in a fight. I’d have to get in good shape, I’m really skinny right now. I think he’d probably be out of my weight class. Because he’s big, you know he’s got that dad strength.”
Dana didn’t reply to Bieber’s message, but UFC champion Conor McGregor was quick to offer to host the fight instead.
He tweeted: “If Tom Cruise is man enough to accept this challenge, McGregor Sports and Entertainment will host the bout. Does Cruise have the sprouts to fight, like he does in the movies? Stay tuned to find out!”
A day after his proposal, Justin shared a fan’s augmented clip of a fight scene from Cruise’s movie Far and Away. The fan’s edit depicted a tussle between Cruise’s Joseph and an opposing character, with Justin’s face superimposed onto the face of the actor’s opponent.
The edited clip showed how a fight between the two A-Listers would have likely gone down, resulting in Bieber being knocked out by Cruise. “Damn Tom, this didn’t go as planned,” Justin tweeted.

SELENA GOMEZ DOESN’T HAVE INSTAGRAM ON HER PHONE – (06/13/2019)
Selena Gomez might have millions of Instagram followers, but she keeps the app off of her own phone.
Selena Gomez makes an appearance on Live! with Kelly and Ryan yesterday and opened up about her love-hate relationship with social media. “I used to a lot,” she shared about interacting with her fans more on Instagram and Twitter, “but I think it’s just become really unhealthy.” She continued:
[“I think, personally, for young people, including myself, to spend all of their time fixating on all these comments and letting this stuff in. It was affecting me. It would make me depressed. It would make me feel not good about myself and look at my body differently and all kinds of stuff.”]
Now, Selena doesn’t even have Instagram on her phone: “I have it on someone else’s phone, and when I feel like I want to share something with my fans or just mess around with it, I do it then.
Selena’s comments come after she said it was “impossible” to make social media a safe place while speaking at a press conference at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival.
She said at the time: “I think it’s pretty impossible to make it safe at this point. I’m grateful I have the platform. I don’t do a lot of pointless pictures. For me, I like to be intentional with it. It just scares me. I’ll see these young girls at meet and greets. They are devastated, dealing with bullying and not being able to have their own voice. It can be great in moments. I would be careful and allow yourself some time limits of when you should use it.” She previously took a hiatus from her social media platforms last year, after she entered a treatment facility to focus on her anxiety and depression.
While on Live!, Selena also said would “definitely” date Bill Murray if the movie veteran was 20 years younger. The two really hit it off while they were filming the new zombie movie The Dead Don’t Die, and Selena admits he would be her ideal man – if it wasn’t for their 42-year age difference. She gushed:
[“He’s so cool. I just feel like he’s one of the funniest people I’ve ever met. He’s so genuine and so kind. I had a blast. “If he were 20 years younger, I would definitely (date him)!”]
Selena previously joked about marrying Bill in a post on Instagram after attending the project’s premiere with her co-stars and director Jim Jarmusch at the Cannes Film Festival in France last month.
“I’m so honored to have been a part of this movie with Jim and the whole cast,” she captioned a photo of the group. “By the way Bill Murray and I are getting married.”
Her remark came shortly after a photo of Bill whispering in Selena’s ear on the red carpet went viral, while they were also spotted holding hands, leading some gossips to link the pair as a couple.
But Selena says the sweet nothings fans think he is whispering to her are simply odd comments:
[“He just says the dumbest things. He’ll just ask me about hot dogs and say something else like, ‘You look nice, Gomez,’ and then he’ll just kinda like, lean in again and be like, ‘Where are you from again?’“]

MEGHAN TRAINOR PAYS TRIBUTE TO ONE OF HER BIGGEST FANS AFTER SHE PASSED AWAY – (06/13/2019)
Meghan Trainor has shared the heartbreaking news of the passing of one of her most dedicated fans, a young woman named Jalisa.
The singer paid a touching tribute to Jalisa, who she hailed as “one of her best friends” as she thanked her for following her around the world and pledged to “never forget” her devoted supporter.
She shared an Instagram collage of several photos of herself and Jalisa over the years and wrote: “I am so devastated by the news of my sweet Jalisa’s passing. Since the very beginning of my career I always had a beautiful familiar face at every single show, all over the world, supporting me and making me smile.”
Meghan went on to say that Jalisa was more than a fan and that she helped build a community of friends everywhere she went – a community called Whalebox, because growing up, Trainor had a whale mailbox.
While it is unclear how Jalisa died, the 25-year-old singer ended her touching tribute by urging her fans to look out for one another and shared the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline number: 1-800-273-8255, for people who are struggling.
“We are stronger together. We need to support and look out for each other. Please know that whatever you’re feeling, you are not alone and there are people that can help,”
