Everyone Is Making The Same Joke About The 31-Year-Old Baby, And I'm Sorry But It's A Good One
An Ohio couple welcomed their baby boy, Thaddeus, last week! Little Thaddeus isn't your typical newborn, though. He's 31 years old. Thaddeus was born from an embryo that had been frozen for 31 years, making him the longest-frozen embryo to ever result in a successful birth. A tweet from Pop Crave gorgeously visualizing the momentous occasion is going viral: PopCrave/Igor Kovalchuk via Alamy/Twitter: @PopCrave The replies are somewhat killing me. These jokes write themselves. "That baby could've been playing tony hawks pro skater 2 and listening to killswitch engage but now it has to play fortnite and listen to carti," one person said. Another person pleaded: "If life begins at conception, let this baby DRIVE and VOTE." And this person said, as a matter of fact: "She should be at the club." But one joke is more popular than the rest. It's this: "The first kid to have the RIGHT to claim he was born in the wrong generation." Because this thing is so absurd, here are some of the funniest tweets about this 31-year-old baby: "Good luck explaining that gap on ur resume bitch." "The concept of starting life at 31." "No the oldest baby ever is still this one." "Avatar: The Last Millennial." "God I'd be so pissed to find out I could've been a chic 90s baby and now I'm just a quirky headline in humanity's apathetic end times." "Imagine being born 31 years old." "The Birth of the Final Millennial." "Poor kid missed out on all the good shit." "That baby is going to have a weird craving for some Fruitopia." "This poor kid could've been born during one of the best decades in history and instead he's born into the era of Cocomelon, TikTok, and AI slop." And lastly: "Baby freezer burnt as hell I'm sure."

Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson's loved ones aren't spilling on their relationship, but they are supportive
People in entertainmentFacebookTweetLink Follow 'Naked Gun' costars Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson are coy when asked if they are romantically involved, but we do know how some of their friends and family feel about their closeness. Bravo executive and talk show host Andy Cohen - who was a good friend of Neeson's late wife, actress Natasha Richardson - was among the first people to provide insight, saying during a recent episode of his SiriusXM show that he and others who were close to Richards were 'very much stanning whatever this is' between Neeson and Anderson. Others appear to also be showing support. Richardson died in a skiing accident in 2009. She was 45. Over the weekend her sister, actress Joely Richardson, commented with seven hearts from her verified Instagram account on a carousel of photos of Anderson and Neeson, which Anderson posted on her verified Instagram account. Anderson and Neeson appeared on Sunday's episode of 'Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen' and Cohen let it be known that he would not be asking about the nature of their relationship. But the host did reiterate that Neeson's friends are 'very much stanning this relationship' and referenced the actor's adult son, Daniel Neeson, who was in the studio audience. 'Right, Danny?,' Cohen said to the younger Neeson, who smiled and appeared to agree. Liam Neeson reached out and held Anderson's hand after Cohen made the comment. Speculation about their relationship swirled as the pair began promoting their new film, now in theaters, with onlookers noting their chemistry on and off screen. Neeson first fanned the flames when he told People magazine in an interview last year that he is 'madly in love with' Anderson, going on to compliment her work ethic.

'Hamilton' producer reflects on 10-year anniversary
Ten years later, history still has its eyes on 'Hamilton.' The beloved musical, created by original star Lin-Manuel Miranda, celebrates a decade on Broadway this week. Producer Jeffrey Seller is reflecting on the show's lasting influence on audiences and the theater world since its groundbreaking premiere. 9 Seller produced Lin-Manuel Miranda's hit musical 'Hamilton.' Getty Images 'I'm feeling so rewarded by 'Hamilton's' impact on people over [the past] 10 years,' Seller, 60, exclusively told The Post. 'The ways in which it has brought so many people joy, … inspiration and illumination. How much it has entertained, but also how much it has educated.' 'Hamilton' officially opened at the Richard Rodgers Theatre on Aug. 6, 2015, following previews that began on July 13. Since then, Seller said it has reached 'well over a quarter of a million Title I high school' students. '[It] not only entertains them, but teaches them American history,' Seller said. 'Not only teaches them American history, but gives them a sense of place — 'Oh, I belong here too. I'm part of the story.'' 9 More than 4.6 million people have seen 'Hamilton' on Broadway. NY Post Brian Zak 9 The original Broadway cast of 'Hamilton' included Miranda, Leslie Odom Jr. and Anthony Ramos. Getty Images According to Broadway World, more than 4.6 million people have seen 'Hamilton' on Broadway — not including those the musical has reached through its filmed version on Disney+, which earned 'Hamilton' an Emmy for outstanding variety special (pre-recorded) in 2021. In June 2020, Forbes reported that the production had surpassed $1 billion in global revenue, making it one of the few to reach the milestone. The achievement helped land Miranda, 45, on the list of the world's highest-paid celebrities, with estimated earnings of $45.5 million that year. 'Hamilton' also dominated the 2016 Tony Awards, winning 11 out of its record-setting 16 nominations, including best musical and best original score. 9 Seller described 'Hamilton' as a 'strike of lightning.' Kevin Mazur The original Broadway cast included Miranda, who also wrote the show's book and score, as Alexander Hamilton; Leslie Odom Jr. as Aaron Burr; and Anthony Ramos as John Laurens and Philip Hamilton. This fall, Odom, 43, is set to reprise his role for the first time since departing the production in 2016. According to ticket-selling platforms like Broadway Direct and TodayTix, Odom's entire run — from Sept. 9 to Nov. 26 — is completely sold out. Before tickets were snagged, prices ranged from $205 to $624, not including fees. Miranda, for his part, is also known for creating and starring in 2008's 'In the Heights,' another Broadway hit produced by Seller that also earned Tonys for best musical and best original score. 9 'Hamilton' began as a concept album about the life of Treasure Secretary Alexander Hamilton. AP 9 'Hamilton' premiered off-Broadway at The Public Theater on Feb. 17, 2015. Getty Images Reflecting on 'Hamilton's' early days, Seller said it felt like 'if 'In the Heights' was this warm embrace, 'Hamilton' was this strike of lighting.'' 'It was absolutely Lin, but it was also another leap forward for him creatively,' Seller explained. 'I remember I was just so blown away by the first three songs: 'Alexander Hamilton,' 'My Shot' and, maybe, Washington's first song ('Right Hand Man').' 'I just said, 'What do you want to do?'' he continued. 'At first, he wanted to make an album. I said, 'So we'll help you make an album… I'm here to serve.'' 9 'Hamilton' won best musical and best original score at the 2016 Tony Awards. Bloomberg via Getty Images 9 'Hamilton' canceled its 2026 run at the Kennedy Center. In fact, in 2009, Miranda introduced 'Hamilton' as a concept album during an appearance at the White House for an evening of poetry, music and the spoken word under the Obama administration. 'I'm thrilled the White House called me tonight because I'm actually working on a hip-hop album,' he said at the time. 'It's a concept album about the life of someone I think embodies hip-hop, Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton.' Miranda then performed an early version of what would become 'Hamilton's' opening number, aptly titled 'Alexander Hamilton.' 9 Lin-Manuel Miranda's final performance as Alexander Hamilton in 2016. Getty Images Before transferring to Broadway, the off-Broadway production of 'Hamilton' premiered at The Public Theater on Feb. 17, 2015. Despite its success over the past 10 years, Seller said he thinks it's still too early to know what the show's legacy will be. ''Legacy' is a hard word because we don't know,' he explained. 'I think we're still too close to see what its legacy is.' In addition to 'Hamilton,' Seller's other producing credits include 'Rent,' 'Avenue Q,' the 2009 revival of 'West Side Story' and, most recently, the 2023 revival of 'Sweeney Todd.' He chronicled his journey from growing up in Detroit to becoming an award-winning producer in his book, 'Theater Kid: A Broadway Memoir,' published on May 6. Meanwhile, 'Hamilton' continues its reach beyond Broadway with multiple North American tours, as well as productions in London's West End, Australia, the UK and Ireland.
