Olivia Cooke is dating her House of the Dragon co-star Ralph Davis!

The 31-year-old actress was spotted kissing Ralph while sitting in the stands at Wimbledon on Wednesday (July 9) in London, England.

Olivia stars in the HBO series House of the Dragon as Queen Alicent Hightower while Ralph appeared in six episodes of the second season as Ser Leon Estermont, who briefly served as a member of King Aegon II Targaryen’s Kingsguard.

The new couple was in the Ralph Lauren suite alongside a bunch of other celebrities.

Ralph is good friends with The White Lotus actress Aimee Lou Wood and they recently collaborated on writing the new comedy series Film Club for BBC. They are also co-starring in the upcoming show!

Most of the Game of Thrones cast members have said they aren’t watching House of the Dragon and only two have confirmed that they’ve tuned in.

Summer has officially begun on Prime Video with the premiere of We Were Liars, a series adaptation of E. Lockhart’s best-selling tale of romance, revenge and Ralph Lauren.

Just like its 2014 source material, We Were Liars tells the story of Cadence Sinclair (played by Gossip Girl‘s Emily Alyn Lind), a 17-year-old trust fund princess haunted by the fractured memories of a tragedy no one in her uber-wealthy family wants to discuss. Over the course of one fateful summer on Beechwood, the Sinclairs’ private island just off of Martha’s Vineyard, the horrifying truth about what happened to Cadence...

If Martha Stewart was still feuding with her documentarian R.J. Cutler, there was no sign of it at the FYC event celebrating their film Martha.

Instead, the two gently teased each other throughout the 30-minute Q&a, held last night at the Maybourne Hotel in Beverly Hills.

When the doc was first released last fall, Stewart didn't hold back, criticizing the film for its choice of camera angles, music choices, and omission of her grandchildren, among other issues.

But time and success has clearly healed all wounds, and at last night's FYC event, Stewart said she’s been pleased with the reception the documentary has gotten. "I want people to know who I am, and I think that this is a step in the right direction to get to know who Martha really is," she said. "I like that the name of the film is Martha, and I like the pictures.

The film, which earned Zellweger her first Oscar nomination, became regular viewing for the London-born actor and his family at Christmas time each year. But he never could have imagined at the time that he would one day be playing Zellweger’s love interest in Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, the fourth and final installment of the franchise based on Helen Fielding’s novels.

Joe Biden awarded his final Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor, to a group of 18 recipients including Denzel Washington, Hillary Clinton, Bono, Jane Goodall and Michael J. Fox.

The ceremony in the East Room was packed with family members and friends, including a number of members of the Kennedy family, as the president gave a posthumous medal to Robert F. Kennedy. “Anyone not a Kennedy stand up,” Biden quipped at one point, with Kathleen Kennedy accepting and a number of the late senator’s other children president. Not attending: Robert Kennedy Jr., President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee to serve as secretary of health and human services.

Another recipient, Hillary Clinton, got a standing ovation as she accepted her award, with former President Bill Clinton in the audience, sitting next to First Lady Jill Biden.

President Joe Biden is concluding his time in office by naming his last round of Presidential Medal of Freedom honorees, and they include two iconic Hollywood names. Entertainment Weekly reports that two-time Oscar-winning actor Denzel Washington and five-time Emmy-winner Michael J. Fox are among this year’s Medal of Freedom recipients. Nineteen people in total are included in this year’s honor.

The award is the nation’s highest civilian honor. It is presented to people who have made “exemplary contributions to the prosperity, values, or security of the United States, world peace, or other significant societal, public or private endeavors.”

The White House released a statement regarding the honorees that read: “President Biden believes great leaders keep the faith, give everyone a fair shot, and put decency above all else. These 19 Americans are great leaders because they are good people who have made extraordinary contributions to their country and the world.

President Joe Biden is set to award the Presidential Medal of Freedom to 19 individuals this Saturday in one of his final acts before leaving office. The prestigious award is the country’s highest civilian honor and is given to people who have made outstanding contributions to society in various fields such as public service, world peace, culture, and security.

Among those receiving the Medal of Freedom are well-known names from Hollywood, sports, business, and other fields.

Some of the biggest names include actors Denzel Washington and Michael J. Fox, as well as musician Bono. Fashion icons Anna Wintour and Ralph Lauren will also be honored, along with basketball legend Magic Johnson, who co-owns the Los Angeles Lakers. Chef José Andrés, known for his humanitarian work and culinary skills, is another recipient.

Other notable honorees include former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, famed conservationist Jane Goodall, and soccer star Lionel Messi.

Armie Hammer thinks audiences will be seeing more of him three years after sexual assault allegations and revelations of apparently cannibalistic fantasies derailed his acting career.

The “Social Network” and “Call Me by Your Name” actor opened up about his return to Hollywood on a Wednesday episode of the “Your Mom’s House” podcast with Christina Pazsitzy and Tom Segura. He shared that after leaving Hollywood, selling timeshares in the Cayman Islands and quietly returning to acting with director Travis Mills’ “Frontier Crucible,” he’s getting a position to be choosier with his projects.

“I’m turning jobs down. My dance card’s getting pretty full,” Hammer said. “That first job that I turned down after four years of this s–t, I mean, it was the best feeling I’ve ever had.”

The Western “Frontier Crucible” marked Hammer’s return to the big screen last year opposite William H. Macy.

Armie Hammer insists he is "turning jobs down" because he is so in demand again. Hammer was once one of Hollywood’s brightest shining stars, and he has rubbed elbows with some of the industry's biggest names, including Johnny Depp in The Lone Ranger, Henry Cavill in The Man from U.N.C.L.E., and Timothée Chalamet in Call Me by Your Name. However, troubling sexual assault allegations and accusatory (and arguably overblown) claims of a cannibalism fetish derailed the actor’s once astounding career.

Today, though, and almost four years to the day that the controversy began, Hammer appears to be on the comeback trail. And while he doesn't feel "balanced and healthy" quite yet, the actor is getting job offers again, according to what he said during his appearance on the Your Mother’s House podcast (per Ymh Studios):

"The worm is turning. It takes time.

Armie Hammer’s career resurgence may be coming sooner than many thought it would. In 2021, the “Social Network” star was accused of sexual assault by a number of women with whom he was engaging in extramarital affairs. A LAPD investigation was conducted at the time, but no official charges were filed and Hammer has consistently maintained that all of his relationships were consensual. Nonetheless, his representation at WME dropped him as a client and he has struggled to find acting work since, even at one point resorting to selling timeshares in the Cayman Islands.

However, after four years of laying low, Hammer is working on his big Hollywood comeback, having already shot a movie with William H. Macy and Thomas Jane called “Frontier Crucible.” He also recently revealed to Christina Pazsitzy and Tom Segura on the “Your Mom’s House” podcast that he might have more projects coming up.

Armie Hammer says his movie career is back on track, so much so he’s picky about roles he takes on these days.

“I’m turning down jobs. My dance card is getting pretty full,” the Call Me By Your Name actor said during an interview on the Your Mom’s House podcast on Wednesday. Hammer talked candidly about his Hollywood comeback after claims of cannibalism, sexual misconduct and rape derailed his career.

“By the way, that first job that I turned down after four years of this shit, it was the best feeling I’ve ever had,” he added about his big-screen acting return. Hammer starred in Frontier Crucible, an upcoming period western starring Thomas Jane and William H. Macy and from director Travis Mills and producer Dallas Sonnier.

And his return from Hollywood exile includes five unspecified movie gigs, Hammer said, including a shoot in Croatia starting this...

Armie Hammer says his career is picking up after three years in industry exile following sexual assault allegations.

Hammer, who returned to acting last year opposite William H. Macy in the Western feature “Frontier Crucible,” was accused of sexual assault in 2021 by a number of women with whom he’d engaged in extra-marital affairs. Following a lengthy LAPD investigation no charges were filed. Hammer always maintained the relationships were entirely consensual. Despite that, his acting work dried up and he was dropped by WME. At one point he resorted to selling timeshares in the Cayman Islands.

Now, the actor says, Hollywood is giving him a second chance. “The worm is turning, it takes time,” he told Christina Pazsitzy and Tom Segura on the most recent episode of their podcast “Your Mom’s House.” “It’s slow, but generally now the conversation when my name comes up with people in the industry is,...

In the world of social media, rumors often spread like wildfire with little to no basis. Recently, a claim has resurfaced which suggests that Sean “Diddy” Combs once referred to Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates as his hero. This claim has gained tremendous traction online, with some believing it to be true, especially in light of Diddy’s current legal situation.

Sean Combs was recently arrested and charged with serious federal charges, including s-x trafficking and racketeering. As the public rightfully scrutinizes Diddy’s alleged horrible actions and statements, it is also vital for the public to separate fact from fiction, particularly regarding the still unverified nature of the recent viral rumor linking him to Gates.

Friends went from strength to strength across its 10 seasons on NBC, creating a strong fan base that continues to grow today. The series followed the six titular friends -- Ross, Rachel, Monica, Chandler, Phoebe, and Joey -- through their daily lives in New York. But it wasn't just those characters who made the show memorable; other characters filled out their world, too.

Each of the main characters had distinctive traits and very different backstories, yet they remained close to each other. They experienced laughter, heartache, and life-changing moments together. As audiences watched them grow, each character arc developed, sending them on their own paths. There were also supporting characters with similar growth, so Friends ended with several people whose lives had changed for the better.

Most who worked with director Joel Schumacher walked away feeling like they’d made a friend. He was generous in spirit, open and honest about his own success and flaws and disappointments. He had a strong eye for budding talent, an audacious visual sense, a past history he’d tell anyone about, one that almost killed him before he moved from being a window dresser to a successful filmmaker. Even journalists who interviewed him came away with a ton of great quotes and a feeling they were better for the experience.

Oct. 27

“Olivia was my first client ever, so we’ve been together over a decade,” says Welch. “And now that she is a director, we have a different approach. … She’s super strong, she’s obviously beautiful, and so we went for more powerful looks.” Welch knew this sequined Ralph Lauren dress was for Wilde as soon as she saw it. “We love a shoulder, a sleeve. I was like, ‘That is an Olivia dress if I’ve ever seen it,’” she says of Wilde’s Governors Awards look. “We tend to not try on a lot of things; we’re really quite edited. Also because she’s a director, she’s busy. We just know the dress is right and we put it on, and that’s what happened.

Sun Valley Film Festival founder Teddy Grennan was driving through central Virginia near his home in Charlottesville when he stumbled upon a feature news segment on NPR in which a rancher was discussing the use of pesticides and GMOs in cattle.

Rolling Stone’s “In Conversation” discussion series, a partnership with Ralph Lauren, began its first installment in conversation with Mark Ronson on September 25th. Live and decked out in Polo Ralph Lauren attire, Ronson chronicled his journey through the music industry and answered questions from staff writer Patrick Doyle.

The two covered everything at the event in Polo Ralph Lauren’s New York City Prince Street store, from his work with Amy Winehouse to his latest single with Miley Cyrus, as well as his recent solo album, Late Night Feelings.

When Matt Ainiwaer visited the West Village building used as the establishing shot of Monica’s apartment on “Friends,” he got “like, very excited,” with the pop culture pilgrimage even bringing him to tears. At least four times a week, he goes to a Central Perk-themed café, modeled off of the sitcom’s fictitious coffeehouse, “just to sit on the couch, to sip on coffee, and to immerse myself… to, like, imagine I am one of the ‘Friends.’”

‘The character has never left me. If I’m stuck in traffic in La, I’ll do the Freddy voice and shout: “Get out of my way!”’

Before I played Freddy Krueger, I was in a lot of best-friend roles. I needed something more distinctive – and thought this little indie film called A Nightmare on Elm Street might be it. Wes Craven, the director, looked preppy, wearing Ralph Lauren and chinos, but looks were deceiving as he had a visionary mind. Remember: he discovered both Johnny Depp and Sharon Stone. He used to tell me that Freddy was the “bastard father of us all”. The character was supposed to signify the loss of innocence, as teenagers turn into adults and become corrupted.

Friends fans, rejoice! It's safe to say that Ralph Lauren will "be there for you" now that they've dropped an entire collection in honor of Rachel Green's iconic ensembles.
