Miley Cyrus tells Variety that she started teasing the ‘Hannah Montana’ anniversary special before it existed: “I learned this terrible habit — but I actually think it was good advice — from Dolly [Parton]. She told me that if you want something to happen, promote it before it exists. Then no one can say no. So I just started promoting a ‘Hannah Montana’ 20th-anniversary special that literally did not exist.”

"#Sinners ultimately fell short of best picture, and the Academy now enters its 99th year without a Black winner in the best director category. But the film’s place in Oscars history remains secure," writes @ByClaytonDavis. "The closing images of the night — Michael B.

Chappell Roan is leaving the Wasserman agency following revelations about founder and CEO Casey Wasserman’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein: "As of today, I am no longer represented by Wasserman, the talent agency led by Casey Wasserman.
