Pete Davidson is losing his tattoos. I removed mine — it hurt
After rehab and some soul-searching, the Saturday Night Live comedian Pete Davidson is having hundreds of tattoos removed because they remind him of 'a sad person that was very unsure'.
'I don't think there's anything wrong with tattoos,' Davidson told Variety. 'But they should have meaning. Not just that I was high watching Game of Thrones.'
His tattoos were certainly pretty off-putting. He has one of SpongeBob SquarePants smoking a joint, a horrible alien face from the 1996 film Mars Attacks!, the Snapchat ghost in a birdcage, the word 'Shaolin' in gigantic letters across his belly button, and many others.
I also had a tattoo, aged 19, when I was also a bit sad — not as sad as Davidson — and geographically

'Snow White' becomes Disney's worst-performing live-action remake in nearly 10 years
Disney's "Snow White" reboot is leaving a legacy it certainly doesn't want, becoming the company's worst-performing wide-release live-action remake in almost 10 years. The 2025 remake of the original 1937 movie opened March 21 in the U.S. and Canada, and has struggled, earning barely $200 million worldwide. The film's page on calls the movie "officially a flop," and says its $205.5 million earnings are "miles behind its massive $410 million total cost," including marketing, production, and other items. The site calls the film's disappointing performance "a financial blow which few expected to be this severe, especially with the losses already estimated at over $115 million, per Collider." "Pete's Dragon," a 2016 Disney remake of the 1977 film, came away with $143.7 million, $61.8 million less than "Snow White." The "Snow White" remake was not without its controversies, which perhaps contributed to the film's poor reception. Over three years before the film's release, one A-list actor with dwarfism had Walt Disney Studios reframe how it portrayed the classic seven dwarfs characters. "Game of Thrones" star Peter Dinklage called out the studio for even considering taking a stab at portraying magical dwarfs in the modern era. Speaking on comedian Marc Maron's podcast in 2022, Dinklage stated, "You're progressive in one way, but then you're still making that f-----g backwards story about seven dwarfs living in a cave together. What the f--- are you doing, man?" Disney then addressed the complaint and said the company would take a "different approach" to the seven dwarfs. Rachel Zegler, the film's lead actress, faced backlash on social media for comments she made that were critical of the 1937 version of "Snow White." "I mean, you know, the original cartoon came out in 1937 and very evidently so," Zegler said during Disney's D23 Expo in 2022. "There's a big focus on her love story with a guy who literally stalks her. Weird! Weird. So we didn't do that this time." Due to the controversy over the dwarfs and Zegler's comments on the original movie, Disney announced in late 2023 it would delay the release for "Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs" by a full year. It was originally slated to be released in March 2024. Zegler was also vocal about her anti-Israel views. In an August 2024 X post talking about the official trailer for "Snow White," the actress wrote, "And always remember, free Palestine." She also lashed out at people who voted for President Donald Trump, saying in an Instagram post, "May Trump supporters and Trump voters and Trump himself never know peace," adding, "F--- Donald Trump." She later apologized, saying in part that "Hatred and anger have caused us to move further and further away from peace and understanding." Disney also scaled back the Hollywood premiere event for "Snow White." Variety reported "the studio won't be rolling out a robust red carpet like it usually does," and that the dozens of media outlets customarily present wouldn't be. Instead, coverage consisted of house crew members and photographers. Fox News Digital reached out to Disney for comment on "Snow White's" box office numbers, but did not immediately receive a response.

Pamela Anderson Steps Out in Showgirl-Worthy Style at the Met Gala 2025
Pamela Anderson has had quite a year. First, the 57-year-old star's career-defining turn as veteran Las Vegas dancer Shelly in Gia Coppola's The Last Showgirl got rave reviews and earned her a Golden Globe nomination; now, with the chaos of awards season behind her, Anderson is ready to celebrate the first Monday in May with her oldest son Brandon Thomas Lee by her side. Anderson hit the red carpet at the 2025 Met Gala with Lee, a producer and actor known for his roles in TV shows and movies including Cosmic Sin and Sierra Burgess is a Loser. (Anderson's younger son, Dylan Jagger Lee, is also a model and musician.) Anderson wore an ice-blue silk mesh Tory Burch gown embroidered with twisted silver sequins and a mix of scattered crystals, and in a nod to the night's Tailored for You dress code, the dress's silhouette was tailored from the inside out using traditional menswear techniques. Lee wore a custom tuxedo by Genuardi. Anderson and Lee's professional collaboration didn't begin and end with the Met Gala, of course; Lee was credited as an executive producer on The Last Showgirl , telling Variety in December 2024 of his involvement with the film: 'My personal mission was to give my mom the opportunities she gave me as a child. She would do anything for me. She showed up and was a very good mother.' Hopefully, we'll have many more projects (not to mention red-carpet looks) coming our way from Pamela Anderson & Sons in the future. Article originally published on Vogue US

Mike Myers defends bold political move he made on Saturday Night Live
Mike Myers isn't backing down from the political message he delivered during a recent Saturday Night Live appearance. The Toronto-born actor, who now lives mostly in the United States, explained in a new interview with The New York Times why he chose to make a statement supporting Canada . During a March episode of SNL, Myers appeared in a sketch spoofing Elon Musk. Though he hadn't planned to make a political remark, Myers said he became increasingly upset throughout the night after thinking about Musk's past comments calling Canada "not a real country" and former President Donald Trump 's suggestion that Canada could become America's "51st state." Read More Related Articles Cillian Murphy says this actress is 'Meryl Streep of her generation' Read More Related Articles People are only now realizing what the band name Thin Lizzy means after 56 years By the time the show ended, Myers unzipped his vest to reveal a shirt reading, "Canada Is Not for Sale," and mouthed "elbows up" - a phrase tied to Canadian hockey legend Gordie Howe's aggressive style on the ice. Mike Myers has maintained that Canada is not for sale. 'What happened came from my ankles and from my brain and from my heart, and it was not about me — it was about my country,' Myers told the Times. 'I wanted to send a message home to say that I'm with you, you know.' The "Austin Powers" star continued, 'What's happened has really hurt our feelings. We love America. We love you guys. We don't understand what this madness is.' Since his SNL appearance, Myers has taken his message even further. He recently starred in a political ad with newly elected Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. In the one-minute spot, Carney quizzes Myers about his loyalty, and the actor proudly wears a hockey jersey bearing the phrase 'Never 51.'

Talking about his parody of Musk, Myers made it clear that he disagrees with the tech billionaire's growing influence in politics. 'The involvement of billionaires in democratic government goes against how I feel as a Canadian," he said, adding that he believes in "good government." Myers also stressed the importance of using humor to push back against dangerous ideas. "Fascism doesn't like to be ridiculed; it likes to be feared," he said. "Satire is an important tool in the toolbox to say that this is not normal, that the cuts he's making are not normal."
