Here's Why Bachelorette Fans Are Mad at Clare Crawley on Behalf of Contestant Matt James


Clare Crawley’s season of The Bachelorette hasn’t even begun filming yet, but it’s already shaping up to be the most dramatic season ever. (But, like, really.)

Production is on hold indefinitely due to the coronavirus pandemic, but we’ve already got a bit of feud brewing between Crawley and contestant Matt James, who also just happens to be BFFs with Tyler Cameron. The whole thing’s a bit messy, confusing, and low-key ridiculous, so we’re here to break down what’s got Bachelor Nation so frustrated with next season’s lead.

This all started with a couple of tweets from Crawley on April 25. “If you are doing interviews and creating Cameo accounts before you are even on my season… you are in it for the wrong reasons… #dontwasteyourtime,” she wrote. “Respect the opportunity you’ve been given. Respect the rules. Respect me. @BacheloretteABC ❤️”

Fans strongly believe these tweets were about James even though she doesn’t mention him by name. Why? James told E! News that he is very much looking forward to meeting Crawley when the show can start filming. “There’s a very beautiful young lady in Sacramento right now who’s quarantining and who is patiently waiting for production on a show to pick back up and I’ve been waiting as well,” he said. “I’m hoping after everything settles down and everyone is safe that I’ll finally get to meet her. I’m looking forward to it.”

And yes, James is on Cameo—but fans were quick to point out he’s been using these opportunities to promote his charity. “Clare… Clare… in this house we stan Matt James. He is doing interviews to promote his charity, ABC Food Tours which is producing tablets and meals for kids in underprivileged areas. And he said he is looking forward to meeting you so where’s the problem,” one person tweeted.

After Crawley’s tweets, James posted a video message in his Instagram Stories about why he’s on Cameo, according to Us Weekly. “For those of you who may have missed the message earlier this week, myself and Alex Bachman, my former teammate and current New York Giants wide receiver, pledged all of our Cameo earnings to the Robin Hood Foundation to fight this fight,” James said.

Even host Chris Harrison weighed in on the drama.

Bachelor Nation appears to be firmly on Team Matt in this situation, and many pointed out that he might be more well known than she is at this point. “Lol I knew who Matt James was before I knew who Clare was,” one fan tweeted. “So it’s pretty funny she thinks he has a following bc of her.” Just as a reminder, Crawley did not actually name names.

Of course, there are some coming to the lead’s defense. “I think it is very clear that Matt is only coming on to try and become the Bachelor,” one fan replied to the backlash. “But to fault Clare for not wanting to risk people coming on for the wrong reasons after the last few seasons we have had seems WILD.”

Clare Crawley has yet to respond to the backlash—but we’re sure this will all be hashed out when the show finally airs…eventually.

Reese Witherspoon's Draper James Is Giving Free Dresses to Teachers


It should be a surprise to absolutely no one that Reese Witherspoon has jumped into action to do what she can to help during the coronavirus pandemic. She doesn’t just play women who get things done, she is a woman who gets things done.

There are so many people going above and beyond in their communities right now, including health care workers and first responders. But our nation’s school teachers have also had their worlds upended, and they’re working hard to adjust their lesson plans and stay connected to their students who are now going to class from their homes. Witherspoon and her lifestyle brand Draper James are saying thank you with free dresses by way of their “Draper James ❤️ Teachers” initiative. Draper James will also offer teachers 25% off online orders for Teacher Appreciation Day on May 5.

“These past few weeks have shown me so much about humanity. I’m an eternal optimist, so I always look for the bright side of things. And I have been so encouraged by the ways people are really showing up for each other. Particularly the teachers,” Witherspoon said in a press release. “During quarantine, teachers are broadcasting lessons from their own homes and figuring out new remote-learning technology and platforms on the fly, all while continuing to educate and connect with our kids. Advocating for the children of the world is no easy task, so I wanted to show teachers a little extra love right now.”

The brand seconded its founder’s sentiment on Instagram: “Dear Teachers: We want to say thank you. During quarantine, we see you working harder than ever to educate our children. To show our gratitude, Draper James would like to give teachers a free dress.”

We love this idea so much and Draper James’ adorable day dresses are perfect for teachers to wear to work—whether they’re back in the classroom or holding class via Zoom.

Listen To Billie Eilish's Spooky New James Bond Theme Song


Update (February 14): Billie Eilish released her new James Bond theme song, No Time To Die, on Thursday, February 13. In true Eilish fashion, it’s smoky and spooky, and a little mournful. Eilish is by far the youngest person to write or perform a Bond theme song—the new movie, starring Daniel Craig as Bond for the fifth and last time, will hit theaters in the US on April 10.

Until then, we’ll keep Billie on repeat.

[embedded content]

Billie Eilish has joined one of the most exclusive musical clubs in the world.

What do Louis Armstrong, Madonna, Adele, Paul McCartney, Shirley Bassey, Duran Duran, and Tina Turner have in common? They’ve all performed Bond songs: the iconic singles that traditionally open James Bond movies. And now Eilish, who recently turned 18, will add one to the catalog.

She’s by far the youngest person to write and sing a Bond theme, and definitely the only one who has the middle name Pirate. She and her brother and longtime collaborator, Finneas, wrote the theme song together for the 25th Bond movie, No Time to Die, which is due out April 8.

“It feels crazy to be a part of this in every way,” Eilish said in a statement, adding that the opportunity is “a huge honor.”

“James Bond is the coolest film franchise ever to exist,” she said. “I’m still in shock.”

No Time To Die disappointed some fans when it was announced that, despite rumors, for the 25th time, 007 would be played by a male actor (Daniel Craig, in his fifth go-round as the vodka-swilling MI6 agent). But there will be feminist influences on this film that go beyond the surface-level girl-power of hot women holding guns: Phoebe Waller-Bridge, the Fleabag genius, is one of four credited cowriters.

This You Season 2 Fan Theory Suggests Love Killed Her First Husband, James


This post contains spoilers for You season 2. Consider yourself warned.

Netflix‘s You is one of those shows where so much happens over the course of a season that you might actually forget key details by the time it’s over. Throughout the duration of You season 2, viewers spend time getting to know Joe/Will’s (Penn Badgley) new obsession, Love Quinn (Victoria Pedretti), a nice Los Angeles (rich) girl who seems surprisingly down-to-Earth.

As the episodes progress, we learn that Love is a young widow. Via flashbacks, we see conversations between her and her late husband, James. By the end of the season, we also realize that Love is fully capable of murder: In a shocking twist toward the end, viewers learn that she killed her au pair back in the day and also slits Candace’s throat in an attempt to protect Joe.

Now, a popular fan theory suggests she killed James, as well. Remember, the show only tells us that he was “sick,” but we don’t get any details about what he had. Was it cancer? Something else? Love says the doctors couldn’t figure out what was wrong. Maybe it was…poison.

“What if Love poisoned her husband… you notice how she’s making treats daily…. they couldn’t figure out why her husband died, but maybe she poisoned him over time…. #YouNetflix,” one fan tweeted. Another wrote, “Started You season 2 on Netflix and I’m finishing up on episode 1… Love poisoned her husband didn’t she? She said ‘he got sick and they couldn’t figure out what was wrong’ so I’m guessing she killed him? ? Here start my theories! I question everything ?.”

Much like the theory that Joe is not the father of Love’s baby, this one pretty much tracks. Can the third season just happen already so we can find out?

James Scully Is Aware His You Character's Name Is Ridiculous


On the flip side: What is the biggest romantic fail you’ve experienced?

I went on this first date once, and the guy was really cool. He was so handsome and very articulate. We went to this really nice dinner, and then afterwards he was like, “We’re going to go to this acrobatic cabaret show in this club downtown.” He wanted to take these weed brownies before we went, and I was like, “I’m a happening young man in New York City! I can hang!” So we ate the brownies, and then it was just a disaster. It was so bad. I was violently high. He was very pushy. We got to the club and then the show didn’t start for, like, seven hours. I was like, “I can’t, we have to go. I can’t do this.”

So how did you get out of it? How did you make your exit?

I was so stoned that I kept trying to wander away from him. Like, when he was in line outside and then in the club. And he kept being like “Stop walking away.” He got real pushy real quick. I ended up going home with him because I don’t know why. I don’t know why. I guess because I was that stoned. And nothing happened. He tried so hard for, like, an hour, and I just rolled over and faced the wall and was like, “Let me pretend to be asleep.”

What’s the most inappropriate thing a fan or a stranger or someone who knows you from your work has said to you?

Nothing terrible, really. I mean you get the occasional requests for pictures of your feet, to which I’m just like, “Very flattered by your interest, not going to happen.” I guess it’s become a thing, especially for the younger generation, that they just—especially fans of a show like You—but they’ll say things like, “kill me” or “choke me” or “run me over.” Part of me thinks it’s hysterical, and then another part of me is like, “Do you need somebody to talk to? Can I refer you to a service or maybe get your parents involved?”

You season 2 is now streaming on Netflix.

This interview has been edited and condensed for clarity.

Kate Middleton's Brother James Is Engaged to Longtime Girlfriend Alizee Thevenet


Prepare yourselves for another royal wedding—well royal-adjacent, that is.

Kate Middleton’s younger brother, James Middleton, confirmed Sunday on Instagram that he and longtime girlfriend Alizee Thevenet were engaged. Rumors began circulating after The Daily Mail published reports that Thevenet had been spotted with a sparker on that finger. Middleton seemed to nod to the rumors in his social media post, captioning a sweet selfie of pair, “She said OUI. Our secret is out but we couldn’t be happier to share the news,” alongside champagne emojis and their couple hashtag “#jalizee.”

The selfie—in which Thevenet rests her hand on Middleton’s chest—perfectly shows of the bride-to-be’s new (and quite large) sapphire ring. While details of the jewelry have yet to be revealed, it is very reminiscent of the diamond and sapphire ring Prince William gave to Kate Middleton in 2010—which once belonged to Princess Diana.

While the 32-year-old didn’t reveal exactly how he proposed, he did share some hints on Instagram Stories. Middleton posted a clip of the duo swimming underwater, captioning it, “I asked @alizeethevenet a question the other day…” He followed it up with a photo montage from throughout the years, teasing her response with the caption, “And she said…”

Middleton and Thevenet have reportedly been dating since last year. They’ve kept their relationship largely private, but Thevenet was spotted on vacation in St. Barts with James, Pippa Middleton and her husband, James Matthews. She also accompanied Middleton to Lady Gabriella Windsor’s wedding this past May, and she has appeared on James’s Instagram sporadically.

Neither the Duchess of Cambridge nor Pippa have yet to publicly congratulate their brother and new sister-in-law-to-be on their engagement, but we wouldn’t be surprised if their wedding drew a large number of royals, including Meghan, Harry and Archie.
