Ariana Grande anuncia su primer single en casi 3 años

Ariana Grande ha estado fuera de la escena musical por un buen tiempo, pero todo eso va a terminar a finales de esta semana, al menos eso dice la Princesa del Pop.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

La cantante anunció el domingo que lanzará un nuevo single en solitario -el primero en casi 3 años- el próximo viernes y ha vuelto a usar comas en los títulos de sus canciones. El tema se llama "Yes, And?"

Ari está publicando una tonelada de anuncios en sus historias de Insta, incluyendo un montón de enlaces para que los fans ordenen el single por anticipado. También parece estar usando su cuenta oficial de "Sweetener" para promocionarlo.

Por supuesto, su base leal está más que entusiasmada con la noticia, ya que muchos sienten que ella estuvo seriamente fuera del radar por demasiado tiempo desde que nos entregó el álbum "Positions" allá por el otoño de 2020. Después de eso, ella ha sido bastante discreta tanto en la música como en la vida pública.

Todo eso cambió el año pasado cuando se divorció de su ahora ex marido Dalton Gómez y comenzó a salir con su coprotagonista en "Wicked" Ethan Slater (el chico de "Bob Esponja"). El cambio en su vida amorosa causó muchos titulares al igual que su separación profesional del mega manager Scooter Braun.

Mientras que mucha gente siente que Ariana ha decaído últimamente, la verdad del asunto es que ella ha estado ocupada rodando este musical en el Reino Unido y obviamente haciéndole frente a muchas cosas en su círculo íntimo.

Sí, ella no ha sacado música original hace un tiempo, pero ha vuelto a los escenarios durante las vacaciones y fue un gran éxito.

Veremos qué tiene que decir sobre todo lo que ha pasado en su vida últimamente. Estamos impacientes.

Ariana Grande You've Been MIA, Love ... 'Yes, And?'

Ariana Grande has been out of the music scene for a good long while now -- but that's all coming to an end later this week ... so says the Princess of Pop herself.

The singer announced Sunday that she'd be dropping a brand new solo single -- her first in nearly 3 years -- this upcoming Friday ... and she's back to using commas in her song titles. The track is called 'Yes, And?' and AG teased with a blurry close-up shot of her mug.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Ari's posting a ton of promo in her IG Story too ... including lots of links for fans to pre-order the single. She also seems to be using her official "Sweetener" account to hype it up as well.

Of course, her loyal base is beyond excited about the news ... as many feel like she seriously fell off the radar for a bit too long since dropping her "Positions" album way back in the Fall 2020. After that, she's been a pretty MIA ... both in music and in public life.

That all changed last year when she divorced her now ex-husband Dalton Gomez and started dating her "Wicked" costar Ethan Slater (the 'SpongeBob' guy). The swap in her love life caused a lot of headlines ... as did her professional split from mega manager Scooter Braun.

While a lot of folks feel like Ariana fell off lately, the truth of the matter is ... she's been busy shooting this musical out in the UK, and obviously dealing with a lot in her inner circle.

Yes, she hasn't put out original music of her own in a bit -- but she has recently dipped her toe back into performing onstage in front of a crowd ... and for the holidays, it was a big hit.

Now, she's back ... we'll see what she has to say about all that's gone with her. Can't wait!

Halle Bailey Welcomes First Child With DDG ... Son's Name is Angelic!!!

2024 has only just begun – but Halle Bailey already has a lot to be thankful for with the birth of her first child, Halo!

The Grammy-nominated singer and her rapper boyfriend, DDG, posted photos on their Instagram pages Saturday night, showing their hands gently holding Halo's fingers with his name etched in a gold bracelet around his little wrist.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

In her caption, Halle wrote, "Even though we’re a few days into the new year, the greatest thing that 2023 could have done for me, was bring me my son.. welcome to the world my halo 🥰👼🏽 ✨the world is desperate to know you 😉🤣♥️."

DDG also commented under his IG pic, "my biggest blessing by far 👶🏽❤️ son son.. never been so in love 🥹 baby halo."

As you may recall, the couple became an item in March 2022 when DDG posted a message on Halle's IG account for her birthday. Since then, they've kept their private lives out of the spotlight ... that was until last night.

Congrats, you two!!!

Gypsy Rose Blanchard 'Harry Potter' Date Night on Broadway ... Years After Learning to Read From Books

A MAGICAL EVENING
BACKGRID

Gypsy Rose Blanchard decided to take in some high culture Saturday night, going to a Broadway show ... one with a special personal meaning.

The controversial ex-con hit the Big Apple with her husband Ryan Scott Anderson, and the two hustled to make curtain for "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child."

If you recall ... her mother, Dee Dee, yanked her out of school when she was very young, and she repeatedly read the 'Harry Potter' series to learn to read.

Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.

Gypsy took to TikTok minutes before the curtain went up to share her 'Harry Potter' love, and snaps of her seats, with her exploding social media audience.

The couple's fun night out sits in stark opposition to the harrowing details emerging in her new Lifetime docuseries.

Gypsy recently revealed she'd been violent toward her mother before she and her then-boyfriend Nicholas Godejohn plotted her murder.

The 32-year-old says, after her mother caught her trying to run away when she was 19, Dee Dee chained her to the bed and beat her severely.

She said Dee Dee also bought a gun and one day, while arguing, Gypsy grabbed it off the table and fired multiple shots at her mother.

It turned out to only be a BB gun, but Gypsy said she was shocked to find she'd pulled the trigger at all, having made the snap decision without thinking.

Dee Dee's medical records show she was treated for a pellet gun injury ... but she said a man robbed and shot her in a Walmart parking lot.

Of course, a few years later, Gypsy did plan and successfully stab her mother to death ... a crime for which she served seven years.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard disfruta de su cita en Broadway con Harry Potter

una tarde mágica

Gypsy Rose Blanchard decidió empaparse de alta cultura el sábado por la noche y asistió a un espectáculo de Broadway... uno con un significado personal especial.

La controvertida ex convicta llegó a la Gran Manzana con su marido Ryan Scott Anderson y los dos se apresuraron a hacer fila para "Harry Potter y el Niño Maldito".

Recordemos que su madre, Dee Dee, la sacó de la escuela cuando era muy pequeña y leyó repetidamente la serie de "Harry Potter" para aprender a leer.

Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.

Minutos antes de que se abriera el telón, Gypsy usó TikTok para compartir su amor por Harry Potter y las instantáneas de sus asientos con su creciente audiencia en las redes sociales.

La divertida noche de la pareja contrasta con los angustiosos detalles que aparecen en su nueva docuserie de Lifetime.

Gypsy reveló recientemente que había sido violenta con su madre antes de que ella y su entonces novio Nicholas Godejohn planearan su asesinato.

La joven de 32 años dice que, después de que su madre la sorprendiera tratando de huir cuando tenía 19 años, Dee Dee la encadenó a la cama y la golpeó severamente.

Dijo que Dee Dee también compró una pistola y un día, mientras discutían, Gypsy la cogió de la mesa y le disparó varias veces a su madre.

Resultó ser solo una pistola de aire comprimido, pero Gypsy dijo que se sorprendió al descubrir que había apretado el gatillo, después de haber tomado la decisión sin pensar.

Los registros médicos de Dee Dee muestran que fue tratada por una herida de escopeta de perdigones, pero ella dijo que un hombre le robó y le disparó en un estacionamiento de Walmart.

Por supuesto, unos años más tarde, Gypsy hizo un plan que resultó con su madre apuñalada hasta morir... un crimen por el que cumplió siete años.

'El diario de la princesa' Villa de San Francisco usada en el filme encuentra nuevo comprador

La escuela secundaria de Mia Thermopolis en "El diario de la princesa" ha encontrado un comprador después de casi 3 meses en el mercado... TMZ ha averiguado.

De acuerdo con los registros de bienes raíces, los propietarios del inmueble de 6,5 millones de dólares de estilo mediterráneo en San Francisco, que se duplicó como exterior de la escuela secundaria en la comedia protagonizada por Anne Hathaway en 2001, aceptaron una oferta por la casa el pasado viernes.

La propiedad de 4 cuartos, 4 baños y 12 habitaciones con 4.554 pies cuadrados de espacio, sin duda es apta para la realeza. Cuenta con una sala de medios de comunicación, ascensor, un gimnasio en el nivel inferior y un garaje para un carro con un armario de lavandería.

En el exterior, hay un jardín en la azotea con una cocina al aire libre y fogata con majestuosas vistas a la bahía de San Francisco, a la ciudad al norte y al este y al bosque al oeste.

Por supuesto, el mejor punto de venta de la propiedad es que aparece como la ficticia Grove High School en "El diario de la princesa", a donde asistió el personaje de Anne Mia antes de enterarse de que era princesa de Genovia.

Solo se utilizaron las tomas exteriores de la casa para la escuela. Las escenas al interior fueron filmadas en Alverno High School en Sierra Madre, cerca de Pasadena.

La casa era propiedad del ex director general de Just Desserts y su esposa y ha sido sometida a numerosas reformas en las últimas 2 décadas.

Steven Mavromihalis y John C. Fitzgerald de Compass celebraron el acuerdo.

'PRINCESS DIARIES' SAN FRANCISCO VILLA USED IN MOVIE FINDS BUYER

Mia Thermopolis' high school from "The Princess Diaries" has found a buyer ... after nearly 3 months on the market ... TMZ has learned.

According to real estate records ... the owners of the eye-watering $6.5 million sprawling Mediterranean-style abode in San Francisco ... which doubled as the exterior of the high school in the 2001 comedy starring Anne Hathaway ... accepted an offer on the home last Friday.

The 4-bed, 4-bath 12-room villa with 4,554 square feet of living space is undoubtedly fit for royalty ... boasting a media room, elevator, a lower-level gym, and a one-car garage with a laundry closet.

On the outside, there's a roof garden with an outdoor kitchen and firepit ... with majestic views over the San Fran Bay, city views to the north and east and forest views to the west.

Of course, the best selling point of the property is that it's featured as the fictional Grove High School in "The Princess Diaries" ... which Anne's character Mia attended before learning she was Princess of Genovia.

Only the exterior shots of the home were used as the school ... scenes inside the school were filmed at Alverno High School in Sierra Madre, near Pasadena.

The home was owned by the former CEO of Just Desserts and his wife ... undergoing plenty of renovations over the last 2 decades.

Steven Mavromihalis and John C. Fitzgerald of Compass held the listing.

'Caddyshack' & 'Tron' Star Cindy Morgan Dead at 69 ... Roommate Called Cops

update

3:49 PM PST -- The Palm Beach Sheriff's Office tells TMZ ... Cindy's roommate called cops to their Lake Worth Beach home on Dec. 30, 2023 -- saying she returned home from a holiday trip, knocked on Cindy's door in their residence ... but got no response.

The roommate told officers she smelled a strong odor emanating from inside and called 911, noting the last she'd seen CM alive was on Dec. 19. Cops went in and found Cindy dead in her room ... with no foul play suspected. An investigation is underway.

3:22 PM PST -- A county rep confirms to TMZ that Cindy died of "natural causes."

Cindy Morgan -- famous for her role in "Caddyshack" -- has died ... TMZ has learned.

The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office confirmed the actress' passing in the area, but no further details about when she died or under what circumstances were immediately available. We've also confirmed her body is currently at a local funeral home there in Florida.

Morgan will likely best be remembered for playing Lacey Underall in the famous 1980 comedy opposite Chevy Chase, Bill Murray and Rodney Dangerfield -- portraying the country club owner's hot niece who captures the attention of pretty much every male character.

She had quite a few scenes in there ... and was memorable as the key temptress in the flick. There's one notable scene she shared with Chevy, where she tried seducing him at a party.

While she was great in "Caddyshack," Cindy had actually starred in several other big films throughout her career ... specifically, in "Tron" -- where she played 2 big roles, Lora and Yori. In addition to this, she also starred in "Galaxis," "Silent Fury," "Up Yours" and other movies.

Her TV resume was even more impressive ... CM had roles on hit shows like "The Love Boat," "CHiPs," "Bring 'Em Back Alive," "The Fall Guy," "Falcon Crest," "Matlock," "Hunter," "The Highwayman," "Manusco, FBI," "The Larry Sanders Show," "Under Suspicion" and more.

Cindy's resume included 37 acting credits, and it looks like she'd been active as recently as 2022 with a voice role in an indie flick. We've tried reaching out to her team ... but haven't had any luck in tracking down someone who currently reps her.

She was 69.

RIP

Taraji P. Henson sobre nuevo filme Casi tuve que ir por mi cuenta al set ... Quejas sobre la película

Taraji P. Henson ahora está disparando contra su nueva película "El color púrpura", alegando que fue relegada a un trato de segunda clase durante la producción ... hasta que ella se defendió.

La actriz hizo una crítica mordaz sobre cómo, según ella, fue tratada (al principio) en el set de "El color púrpura", una película de Warner Bros, y cómo tuvo que exigir mejores condiciones de trabajo, incluyendo conseguir alguien que la llevara hasta el propio set.

En una nueva entrevista con el NYT, Taraji revela que tuvo que abogar no solo por sí misma, sino también por sus compañeros de reparto, diciendo: "Nos dieron carros de alquiler y yo estaba como, 'No puedo conducir hasta el set en Atlanta'. Esto es responsabilidad del seguro, es peligroso. Ahora le roban a la gente. ¿Qué aspecto tengo yo, yendo sola al trabajo en un carro de alquiler?".

La actriz añade: "Así que les dije: '¿Pueden llevarme a un chófer o alguien de seguridad? Me decían: 'Bueno, si lo hacemos por ti, tenemos que hacerlo por todos'. ¡Pues háganlo por todos! Son cosas así, cosas por las que no debería tener que luchar. Estaba en el plató de "Empire" luchando por remolques que no estuvieran infestados de bichos".

Taraji tenía más quejas que airear sobre la película, como por ejemplo, la afirmación de que el estudio, al parecer, no estaba interesado en llevar al elenco a una gira de prensa internacional, así como quejas porque tuvo que hacer una audición y romperse el culo por su papel en la película.

Ella explica: "¿Qué más tengo que hacer para demostrar mi valía? Ahora que estoy cantando y bailando para ti, y me subí a la mesa 88 veces con mis rodillas nudosas y tuve que ponerme hielo en las rodillas entre toma y toma, ¿qué más tengo que hacer?".

Cansada de que me traten mal
Sirius XM

Todo esto sigue a varias semanas de Taraji y otras estrellas de la película discutiendo su bajo salario en Hollywood, y ha sido revelador, especialmente con nombres tan grandes unidos a esta película, incluyendo el de Oprah, que es productora y ha sido una parte clave de la promoción.

Taraji dice que Oprah tuvo que intervenir en su nombre un puñado de veces debido a sus quejas y, finalmente, todo se solucionó, pero parece haber sido una batalla cuesta arriba durante un tiempo. Una vez más, Taraji es una ganadora del Globo de Oro y actriz nominada al Oscar.

Si lo que ella ha estado diciendo es cierto, hablar de un comportamiento patas arriba hacia un A-lister. 🥴

Taraji P. Henson on 'TCP' I Almost Had to Drive Myself to Set ... Complains About Film

Taraji P. Henson is now taking shots at her own new film "The Color Purple," claiming she was relegated to second-class treatment while in production ... that is, until she fought back.

The actress gave a scathing critique over how she says she was dealt with as talent (at first) on the set of 'TCP' -- a WB film -- and how she had to demand better working conditions ... including getting a lift to and from the set itself.

In a new NYT interview, Taraji reveals she had to advocate not just for herself, but for her castmates as well ... saying, "They gave us rental cars, and I was like, 'I can’t drive myself to set in Atlanta.' This is insurance liability, it’s dangerous. Now they robbing people. What do I look like, taking myself to work by myself in a rental car?"

TPH adds, "So I was like, 'Can I get a driver or security to take me?' I’m not asking for the moon. They’re like, 'Well, if we do it for you, we got to do it for everybody.' Well, do it for everybody! It’s stuff like that, stuff I shouldn’t have to fight for. I was on the set of "Empire" fighting for trailers that wasn’t infested with bugs."

Taraji had more grievances to air about 'TCP' ... including the claim that the studio, apparently, wasn't interested in bringing the cast out internationally for a press run -- as well as complaints about the fact she had to audition and bust her ass for her role in the flick.

She explains ... "What else do I need to do to prove my worth? Now that I’m singing and dancing for you, and I climbed up on the table 88 times with my knobby knees and had to ice my knees in between takes, what else do I need to do?"

TIRED OF MISTREATMENT
Sirius XM

All this follows several weeks of Taraji and other stars of the film discussing their low pay in Hollywood ... and it's been eye-opening to watch -- especially with such big names attached to this film, including Oprah ... who's a producer and has been a key part of promotion.

Taraji says Oprah actually had to step in on her behalf a handful of times over these complaints of hers -- and eventually, everything got sorted out ... but it seems to have been an uphill battle for a while. Again, Taraji is a Golden Globe winner/Oscar-nominated actress.

If what she's been saying is true ... talk about topsy-turvy behavior toward an A-lister. 🥴

Tiffany Haddish Responds to Katt's Criticism Anew ... Rattles Off Career Resume

010624_tiffany_haddish-kal
been there, done that!
TikTok/ @cassidyjrdn

Tiffany Haddish is the latest star to respond to Katt Williams' shots at his contemporaries -- this after he tried to downplay her comedy career ... with her pulling out her resume.

The comic/actress was performing at the Dania Improv in Florida earlier this week, when she appeared to address Katt's fresh round of hate aimed at her, Kevin Hart and many, many others in the game ... and she clarified a claim he made about her to Shannon Sharpe.

Long story short ... Katt said that a recent doc made about the famous Comedy Store club in L.A. had suggested that several Black comedians -- including Tiff -- had performed there over the years, but KW insisted that simply wasn't true and that she'd never gotten onstage there.

Welp, Tiffany had something to say about that during her Thursday set ... when she rattled off a lot of shows and movies she'd been in, and how long she's been honing her craft.

Eventually, she tackles his allegation that she'd never open mic'd at the Comedy Store -- at least not while coming up, anyway -- and TH refuted that ... saying she had, but just on the "white nights." The flip side ... Tiff says she definitely performed on all the "Black nights."

Mind you, Tiffany had already fired away in the comment section of a clip of Katt's interview where she got mentioned ... and there too she suggested KW didn't have his facts straight.

It's also worth mentioning ... Katt's been feuding with Tiff (and her close friend, Kevin Hart) for years now -- and he infamously trash-talked her and her comedy chops on a radio show.

Looks like TH's standing on business, not to mention standing by her work ... 10 toes down.
