Paul Rudd totally fangirled over Miley Cyrus shoutout during ‘SNL50: Homecoming Concert'
Paul Rudd could hardly contain his excitement after Miley Cyrus gave him a shoutout during a high-profile performance last month.
Cyrus performed her hit song 'Flowers' during the 'Homecoming Concert,' a special that celebrated the 50th anniversary of 'Saturday Night Live' and aired on Valentine's Day, which Rudd and his wife Julie attended as part of the live studio audience.
Mid-song, Cyrus spotted Rudd in the audience and shouted, 'I love you, Paul Rudd!'
The moment left a lasting impact on Rudd, who told WSJ. Magazine in an interview published Tuesday that the surprising shoutout inspired him to channel his inner-teenager.
'When she said that, I did turn into a 15-year-old,' Rudd said.
He went on to describe his inner teenage monologue in that moment, saying, 'There's no way! It's like, Oh, my God, she's sick…. I can't. OK, oh, my God. Miley Cyrus said my name!'
Rudd added that he spent 'a good 10 minutes afterward' excited about the moment.
He even got to talk to Cyrus about it the very next day during rehearsals for the 'SNL' anniversary special that aired later that weekend, where he told her, 'I love you too.'
Cyrus, he said, responded by saying, 'Thank you for being a good sport.'
The 'Homecoming Concert' and 'Anniversary Special' aired in February to commemorate 50 years of the long-running sketch show, currently in the midst of its 50th season.
In addition to Cyrus, Lady Gaga, Chris Martin, Bad Bunny, Post Malone, Jelly Roll, Jack White, Brittany Howard and others performed during the 'Homecoming Concert,' which was hosted by 'SNL' alum Jimmy Fallon and took place at Radio City Music Hall.

Ways to save on your wedding
SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) — June is the traditional month for weddings, but no matter when you've set the date, one thing is for sure: getting to the big day takes a lot of planning. And a lot of money. According to the average wedding costs $33,900. That's up from $28,000 pre-pandemic. If you're going to spend the money, you should get the most for it. Here are some affordable ways to keep your wedding costs manageable. The reception: Many couples are opting to have their ceremony on a weekday to keep wedding costs down. They're also staying away from romantic holidays like Valentine's Day, a time when vendors may increase prices. Wedding planners advise looking for a venue that offers package deals (venue, catering, etc.). And always try to negotiate a price. The decor: Do you really need that ice sculpture in the shape of a swan? If the answer is yes, by all means get one. But if you're on a tight budget, think about renting flowers or greenery. Framed pictures of the bride, groom and their family members are a nice touch too. The flowers: Consider renting flower arrangements and greenery for the church ceremony. Many churches have more than one wedding on the same day. You could contact the other brides and see if you can either keep their flowers for your wedding (and, of course, compensating them!) or you could offer your flowers (at a nice price) to the bride whose wedding is after yours. If that's not possible, think about using the flower arrangements from your ceremony at the reception too. (Be sure to ask someone to handle transporting them for you.) The guests: Again, do you really need your cousin's best friend's sister's babysitter at your wedding? Be judicious. Try this test: if you close your eyes to imagine your wedding and don't see the person's face you're trying to decide on, move them to a backup list. You can always add them back in if your budget allows. The menu: If you want a formal dinner, that's wonderful. If you can't afford it, there are many classy alternatives. Check out your favorite restaurant's catering menu. Many times their cost includes set up and clean up. (Of course, check with your venue first. Many have an existing list of caterers they will only work with.) And consider a buffet. Not only can it be more affordable, but it also ensures your guests will mingle and not just talk to the people at their table. The bar: Everyone wants to toast the bride and groom! But if a fully stocked bar and big cocktail selection aren't a priority for the happy couple, consider sticking to wine and beer only. For variety, you could offer one or two signature cocktails. The cake: Your wedding cake can be extravagant or it can be understated. Either way, your it can be a showpiece without breaking the bank. Many couples choose a smaller cake to cut for pictures and then serve sheet cake slices or cupcakes to the guests. One sure way to keep the cake cost down is to opt for buttercream frosting instead of fondant. It's your special day. You don't have to go broke to have the wedding of your dreams.

Miley Cyrus Wears Nude Mesh Schiaparelli Gown to 'Something Beautiful' Premiere
On Friday, Miley Cyrus attended the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of her new visual album, Something Beautiful, wearing a SS25 haute couture Schiaparelli gown by Daniel Roseberry. The net dress was in woven nude fabric and hung with crystal water drops that made the star shimmer as she arrived. The wide weaving revealed her nude bodysuit underneath. The gown's skirt ended in a dramatic fringe and she wore a matching fringe stole over the ensemble, allowing it to drape down from her arms. She accessorized with Schiaparelli's Anatomy Jewelry Bag and wore a pair of nude pointed-toe heels. Her hair was parted to the side and in her ears were a pair of dangling crystal drop earrings. Cyrus wore a second Schiaparelli look to the after-party from the fashion house's RTW FW25/26 collection, a bustier dress embroidered with golden and silver mirrors in an organic pattern. She was seen walking hand-in-hand with her boyfriend, Maxx Morando, carrying a black clutch and wearing gold pointed-toe heels. In a recent interview on the Every Single Album podcast, Cyrus talked about her former relationship with Liam Hemsworth, who she met in 2009. While talking about her 'Younger Now' era, Cyrus brought up Hemsworth and how she embraced 'innocence' in her image at that time as a way to reconnect with him in her personal life. 'When me and Liam split up the first time with 'Bangerz' because I was this provocateur, like, highly sexualized,' she shared. 'For 'Younger Now', the reason I kind of played into this innocence was because I think it was a way to keep—a way to stay—by being younger now and a less sexualized woman publicly, and this was a way to keep a happy home.' Cyrus and Hemsworth were off-and-on from 2010 to 2012, then got married in 2018. They filed for divorce before reaching one year of marriage. Hemsworth went on to date model Gabriella Brooks, while Cyrus connected with Morando.

Miley Cyrus heckled at NYC Tribeca Film Festival by fans who thought premiere was a concert: ‘We paid $800'
They came in like a wrecking ball. Miley Cyrus, the Disney child star turned pop sensation, was heckled by fans at the world premiere of her 'Something Beautiful' long-form music video screening during the Tribeca Film Festival, footage of the awkward exchange showed. Fans who attended the special screening at The Beacon Theatre were seemingly under the impression that Cyrus would be performing during the event rather than promoting the upcoming film. 4 Miley Cyrus was heckled by fans during the world premiere of her 'Something Beautiful' visual album. Getty Images for Tribeca Festival 'We thought this was a concert, we paid $800,' one person shouted at her during the Q&A segment that took place on stage after the film. 'Are you actually going to sing?' another person questioned. The festival promoted Friday's event as a 'one-of-a-kind pop opera featuring thirteen original new songs from the Something Beautiful album' with 'an exclusive conversation' with the three-time Grammy winner after the 55-minute project aired. However, some fans who purchased their tickets on resale websites accused the third-party ticketing platforms of misleading them. A user on X posted a screenshot from a Google search of the event, which read 'Miley Cyrus Tickets & 2025 Endless Summer Vacation Tour Dates — though the 'Used To Be Young' singer is not on tour and the 'Endless Summer Vacation' record came out in 2023. 'This is the link I clicked on to buy. Says concert tour dates not movie dates,' the fan alleged on X. 4 Some fans thought the event was going to be a live concert. Dia Dipasupil Other fans who allegedly bought resale tickets were stunned that the expensive event wasn't a concert and even left early out of frustration, according to The Hollywood Reporter. 'No one would've spent this much money if we had known,' an attendee told the outlet. 'She doesn't tour, she doesn't play live often.' As of May 27, resale tickets for the Upper Balcony on Vivid Seats started at $510 and became more expensive closer to the stage. The Post reached out to Vivid Seats for comment. 4 Cyrus released her ninth studio album 'Something Beautiful' on May 30. Ouzounova / The 'Flowers' hitmaker eventually gave in to the hecklers' requests and sang her hit 'The Climb' in a cappella fashion. Tickets to see the 'Hannah Montana' alum's visual album and conversation at the 2,600-seat venue were initially sold on Ticketmaster and titled 'Miley Cyrus World Premiere of Something Beautiful.' It was one of the rare opportunities fans had to see the 'Flowers' singer in person. 'I can't. Not only 'can't…' because can't is your capability, but my desire,' Cyrus told British Vogue in June 2023. 'Do I want to live my life for anyone else's pleasure or fulfillment other than my own?' 4 Cyrus started dating boyfriend Maxx Morando in 2021 after they were set up on a blind date. GC Images Cyrus added that she felt disconnected from her fans while on stage. 'Like singing for hundreds of thousands of people isn't really the thing that I love,' Cyrus shared. 'There's no connection. There's no safety.' The 'Party in the USA' singer's last big tour was for 'Bangerz' in 2014. Cyrus performed in over 70 shows on the 'Bangerz' tour and followed that up with her '2015 Milky Milky Milk Tour,' which consisted of only eight shows. On top of feeling 'isolated' while on the road, the 'We Can't Stop' vocalist has a medical issue impacting her performance abilities Cyrus claimed she has Reinke's edema, a disorder she described as an 'abuse of the vocal cords.' 'It's extremely difficult to perform with because it's like running a marathon with ankle weights on,' the star revealed during an interview with Apple Music.
