Netflix has unveiled the first trailer for Madea's Destination Wedding, the 13th installment in the comedic Madea franchise, created by and starring Tyler Perry, which is slated to premiere on July 11.
Marking the second Madea film made through a creative partnership with Netflix, on the heels of A Madea Homecoming in 2022, Madea's Destination Wedding sees Madea (Perry) and her family travel to the Bahamas for her grandniece Tiffany's (Diamond White) impromptu wedding to a rapper she recently met on a yacht. The sudden engagement, with the wedding set to occur in just two weeks, raises suspicions among Tiffany's parents, Brian (also portrayed by Perry) and his ex-wife Debrah (Taja V. Simpson). As the family gathers for the celebration, tensions and comedic chaos ensue, leading to a memorable tropical adventure.

Meghan Markle's New Project Is So Unexpected…and So Her
Meghan Markle has been busy this year—like, seriously booked and thriving. Between launching her lifestyle brand As Ever, kicking off her new podcast Confessions of a Female Founder and seeing her hit Netflix series With Love, Meghan already renewed for season two, the Duchess of Sussex is clearly in her boss era. And according to new reports, she's not slowing down anytime soon. The latest buzz? Meghan might be setting her sights on the hospitality industry—think boutique hotels, chic restaurants and cozy luxury stays. According to The Mirror, the former Suits star has been expanding the trademark for her rebranded lifestyle firm, As Ever, with filings that now include 'hospitality services,' 'temporary lodging' and the 'provision of food and drink.' It's only a matter of time before we find out if it's true, but honestly, it wouldn't be a shock. Meghan's whole vibe—with As Ever and her Netflix show—is rooted in entertaining, lifestyle and creating beautiful spaces. A move into the hospitality world feels like a natural next step. In fact, the idea of building something for future generations seems to be top of mind for her. On a recent episode of Confessions of a Female Founder, Meghan chatted with Tina Knowles (yes, Beyoncé's mom) about the possibility of launching a business one day with her daughter, Princess Lilibet. She asked Tina for her best advice on working with family. 'There are difficulties sometimes… you have disagreements,' Knowles said. 'But I'm the one that always caves. I've been like that since I was young. If my kids are mad at me, I can't take it, so I'll apologize.' Whether Meghan's next venture is a podcast empire, a boutique hotel or a cozy café somewhere in Montecito, one thing's for sure: the world is watching… and some of us (AKA me) are cheering her on.

British Netflix series Adolescence to be shown in French schools, says minister of education
Following UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer welcoming plans to air Netflix's hit show Adolescence in secondary schools, France is following suit, with French Minister of Education Élisabeth Borne stating yesterday that the mini-series will be screened from secondary school level upwards. In an interview for LCI news channel, Borne explained that the producer of the series 'gave us the rights' and that the Ministry of Education was therefore going to 'offer five educational sequences for young people based on this series'.These extracts from Adolescence, which have already been shown in British schools to stimulate debate and try to 'prevent young boys from being dragged into a whirlpool of hatred and misogyny,' are 'very representative of the violence that can exist among young people', according to Borne. The aim is to help raise awareness of the problem of 'overexposure to screens and the trivialisation of violence on these social networks,' as well as the spread of masculinist theories and misogyny, argues Borne. The four-part series follows how a father deals with the fallout of his 13-year-old son being suspected of stabbing one of his classmates to death. Beyond the spot-on acting, the show has felt like a cultural wake-up call, as it has prompted a wider discussion about toxic masculinity and the devastating influence of the so-called 'manosphere' on young minds who are faced with websites and online forums promoting misogyny and ultra-conservative models of masculinity that flirt with far-right ideologies. When it was confirmed that Netflix would be making the series available to all UK secondary schools, former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson wrote a column for the Daily Mail saying that he didn't see the good in the initiative, calling the show 'tosh'. He wrote: 'In making this announcement with full prime ministerial authority amid the ancient solemnity of the cabinet room, Keir Starmer has perfectly encapsulated the fundamental flatulence of the government, and its emetic finger-wagging mixture of humbug and wokery.' Johnson went on to say that he believes the move to show the series in school time demonstrates the government's 'cruel indifference to the real educational needs of children today,' adding: 'In case you haven't watched Adolescence I can save you the bother. It's tosh - well-acted tosh.' Predictably, Johnson also introduced race to his argument, saying that 'unlike the teenage couple in this drama, the victims and perpetrators are disproportionately young black males.' The show's co-creator Jack Thorne has already spoken out on this theory, saying, 'It's absurd to say that (knife crime) is only committed by black boys. It's not true and history shows a lot of cases of kids from all races committing these crimes.' Thorne also stated that the goal of the show was not about 'making a point about race' but to make a point 'about masculinity.' 'We're trying to get inside a problem,' he added. 'We're not saying this is one thing or another, we're saying that this is about boys.' The decision to show the series in French schools comes after Laëtitia Curetti, who has a 13-year-old son, wrote to Borne and launched an online petition to have the series shown in secondary schools across France. Curetti stated she believes the series could be an 'excellent educational tool' to raise awareness of the dangers of social networking, sexism, bullying and violence in schools. The discussion surrounding knife crime has increased since the success of the series in France. It has been further amplified after a 16-year-old stabbed a high school student to death and injured three other fellow students at the lycée Notre-Dame de Toutes Aides in Nantes on 24 April. "My thoughts go out first to the teenager who lost her life, to the three students who were injured, and I want to express all my support and solidarity to these victims, their families and their loved ones," declared Borne at the school, before paying tribute to the "establishment staff who intervened and neutralized the attacker." French Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau spoke of "a tragedy that rocks us." He said he was "appalled" and "shocked" by "the violence that has been unleashed," before adding that the tragic incident was "not a mere news item but a societal issue."

Tony Awards draw best audience in 6 years for CBS
NEW YORK (AP) — The Tony Awards on Sunday lured 4.85 million viewers to CBS, its largest broadcast audience in six years, according to Nielsen's data. CBS said Monday the telecast — hosted by 'Wicked' star Cynthia Erivo — scored a 38% increase over last year's 3.53 million viewers. That's the largest audience for the Tonys since 2019, when the telecast that year nabbed 5.4 million viewers and ' Hadestown ' was crowned best new musical. The latest version also had to compete with the second game of the NBA Finals, between the Thunder and Pacers, CBS also said the awards show drew its largest ever streaming audience on Paramount+ but did not disclose streaming viewership numbers, only saying it was up 208% from last year. 'Maybe Happy Ending,' a rom-com about androids that crackles with humanity won best new musical on a night when Kara Young made history as the first Black person to win two Tonys consecutively for 'Purpose,' which also won best new play. Interest in the Tonys may also have been fueled by the competition in the best lead actress in a musical category, with Audra McDonald gunning for her record-setting seventh Tony and Nicole Scherzinger of 'Sunset Blvd.' hoping to be crowned a legitimate Broadway diva after a career in the pop group Pussycat Dolls and as a TV talent show judge. Other Hollywood names included in the telecast included George Clooney making his Broadway debut and 'Succession' star Sarah Snook being named best leading actress in a play for 'The Picture of Dorian Gray,' a one-woman show.
