BIG news today – the W is reportedly coming to Toronto! Word is the NBA expansion will reach Canada very soon. I went to the exhibition game here last May and it was popping. The fans were amazing, the merch was selling out (I almost cried leaving without an orange hoodie), and it was a matter of time. Now everyone in the city is talking about the name. What are your suggestions? (CBC)
While the girls are winning, the boys are beefing. Boy Sh-t Friday! It’s Shaq vs Club Shay Shay – Shaquille O’Neal is taking exception to Shannon Sharpe positing that Shaq’s criticism of the NBA’s MVP selection has more to do with Shaq’s ego. Shaq’s telling Shannon that he isn’t in his league. Shannon’s now saying Shaq was, um, basically lazy. I’m not taking sides (like it matters what side I’m on anyway) but on the issue of the NBA MVP, Shae Gilgeous-Alexander was robbed! And not just because I’m Canadian! (Hollywood Unlocked)
Holy sh-t, the production speed of The Bear! I feel like they only started shooting season three (and maybe season four?) in February but now they’re already confirming that S3 will premiere at the end of June – that is a QUICK turnaround! Anyway, the teaser doesn’t tell us much that we wouldn’t know already expect: Chef is back and looking murderous. You brought this on yourself, Carmy. (IGN)
I feel like this is an annual thing – last year after the Met Gala I think we all remember that Law Roach had a lot to say about his career. It was the whole retirement thing. This year after the Met Gala Law is talking about his work process, his burn book, and the Queen of All Feelings, Celine Dion! Law reflects on what it meant to him to reunite with Celine for her return. We’re getting closer and closer to the release of her documentary and if there’s a press tour, I really hope he styles her.
