BLACKPINK's Lisa wants to return to The White Lotus
BLACKPINK's Lisa would "love" to return to 'The White Lotus'.
The 28-year-old star made her acting debut earlier this year in the hit HBO series, and Lisa has now admitted that she would relish the opportunity to reprise the role of Mook.
Asked if she's spoken to Mike White, the show's creator, about reprising the role, Lisa told Variety: "People want to see more of a Mook. I would love to if I had the chance, but I don't want to pressure anyone."
Lisa's also speculated about Mook's future, after season three of 'The White Lotus'.
Asked where she thinks Mook is today, the chart-topping singer joked: "She recently went to Coachella!
"I don't think she's going to stay on the island. I think she is somehow going to make it to Bangkok."
Lisa shot to international stardom as a member of BLACKPINK, the chart-topping K-pop group. And the singer feels proud of what she's managed to achieve with BLACKPINK.
She previously told ELLE: "When I'm onstage [with BLACKPINK], I share my energy with my members. If she gives 100, I'll give 120. We can feel each other. And I love that energy."
Lisa has focused on her solo material in recent times, but she also remains committed to the girl group.
She explained: "Of course we're continuing, for sure.
"We're so proud of BLACKPINK, and I love BLACKPINK. It is not just because of our fans, it's for ourselves. There was no doubt. This is our life."
Lisa's experience as a solo artist has helped her to become more decisive in recent years.
Lisa - who released her debut album, 'Lalisa', back in 2021 - shared: "I think what I've learned from last time is me, myself, saying what I like and what I don't like.
"I think that's the most important. Because if I say, 'Ah, it's okay,' [people] don't know - like, am I really okay with it? So I have to be able to say 'yes' or 'no.' Not in between."
Despite this, Lisa admits she's still not good at "expressing [her] feelings".
She explained: "To be honest, I'm not the type who's really good at expressing my feelings.
"Lately, I feel more confident of what I think, and say it out loud."

Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood finally address 'ridiculous' reports of White Lotus feud
Walton Goggins has confirmed there is "no feud" with Aimee Lou Wood after 'The White Lotus'. The 53-year-old actor and his co-star - who played Rick Hatchett and Chelsea on the hit HBO show - have faced claims of a rift between them after he unfollowed her on Instagram once season three of Mike White's anthology drama was finished. In a joint interview for Variety's Actor on Actor series, he said: 'There is no feud. I adore, I love this woman madly, and she is so important to me. 'This is Goldie Hawn. This is Meg Ryan. She can do anything, and she will. You watch what the next 20 years of her experience will be. "I'll be on an island, I think Greece. But she's special. There is no feud. She is love and I know that I am that to her. We care about each other very deeply.' Walton insisted the speculation over him unfollowing her on social media was "such a comment on where we're at culturally". He argued: "Why is everyone obsessing over Instagram? That is irrelevant. We don't give a s**** about Instagram. 'Why not have conversations about the story and Rick and Chelsea and enjoy it?' Meanwhile, 'Sex Education' star Aimee, 31, explained why she decided to stay silent on the rumours despite initially wanting to correct everyone. She said: "Eventually I just started to sit back and watch these people making something out of absolutely nothing.' Walton took the opportunity in their interview to "follow" her right there and then, as he found his phone and opened up Instagram. He added: "It's all so ridiculous. It's just a part of me just saying goodbye to this character so that now Aimee and I will be friends for f****** ever.' As they hugged, she told him: 'I completely understand.' Meanwhile, Walton recalled having an emotional goodbye with 'Justified' castmate Tim Olyphant before not talking to him "for almost two years", which is what he's done "with every single thing" he's worked on. There was also the added heartbreak of him returning to Bangkok, Thailand for the first time since he escaped to the city after his wife took her own life in 2004. He explained: "My catharsis in this experience was different than other people's, because of my history in this place. "I knew what we had gone through, and I knew how close that we had gotten, and I needed to begin to process saying goodbye to Rick and Chelsea. 'And I knew that that was going to take a while for me, so I let her know, this is what I've gotta do. And she was extremely supportive about that.' He "needed to just back away from everyone", noting it wasn't a case of solely ignoring Aimee. He said: "I haven't spoken to anyone. I couldn't handle it. Judge me or don't. I don't give a f*** what you think. "This is my process. Rick means everything to me, and Chelsea means everything to me. And so that's what I needed to do for me to process all of this.'

White Lotus star bombarded with cash from fans
Patrick Schwarzenegger was bombarded with money from fans while they watched him on 'White Lotus'. The 31-year-old actor made the revelation during an interview with People, where he sat down with his former co-star on the show, Aimee Lou Wood. They were promoting their new partnership with Venmo, ahead of the launch of the brand's debit card and expanded checkout features. He said: "I don't know if this ever happened to you, Aimee – I sent it in our group text from White Lotus – but I have people that sent me money on Venmo during episodes of 'White Lotus'. "It was really strange." In the show, Schwarzenegger plays the eldest son in an extremely rich family about to face ruin, over fraud allegations. He added: "I sent it all back, don't worry. But I did. I got a lot of people that sent me money." Wood, 31, said her own memories of filming involved a rather expensive coconut habit while on location in Thailand. "It was chronic," she said, adding: "I could not stop with the coconuts. I just absolutely loved them! I was so hydrated. I think I was overly hydrated, actually." The pair spent seven months filming the hit HBO series last summer, and said their new work with Venmo came at the perfect time – days after they had been discussing the possibility of collaborating again. "The whole experience was just really fun and put us in a fun situation to get to dance with each other", Schwarzenegger said. Wood agreed, and reflected on the intense bond formed during the extended production, admitting to feeling "separation anxiety" after filming wrapped. She said: "Seven months all of us together, in the same place, and then I went back to England and it was so lonely." The two stars have remained close, spending significant time together in recent weeks, working on the same shoots.

And Just Like That ... Sex and the City's Carrie Bradshaw gets her groove back
"She's messy. It can be messy. But it's real." So says Cynthia Nixon - not just of Miranda Hobbes, the character she's embodied for almost three decades, but of her show, HBO's Sex and the City revival And Just Like That..., which has come into its own in Season 3. Less preoccupied with pleasing everyone, the show is more interested in telling the truth. In this case, truth looks like complexity. Women in their 50s with evolving identities. Not frozen in time, but changing, reckoning, reliving. Queerness that's joyful but not polished. Grief without melodrama. A pirate shirt with a bleach hole that somehow becomes a talisman of power. Nixon and co-stars Sarah Jessica Parker and Kristin Davis say their show has evolved into something deeper, more raw and more reflective of who they are now. Season 3 marks the return of Carrie Bradshaw's iconic internal monologue that once defined Sex and the City. The series has always followed Carrie's rhythm, but now it brings back something deeper: her voice. Literally. "We've always loved the voiceover," Parker said. "It's a rhythm - it's part of the DNA." The voiceovers return as Carrie rediscovers her direction - offering viewers a renewed sense of intimacy and connection. That growth is echoed in her rekindled relationship with Aidan and her acceptance to step back for him to focus on his troubled son. The character who in 1998 first stopped a cab in Manolo Blahniks - and once floated through Manhattan chasing shoes and column deadlines - is now grounded in reinvention, the wounds of loss and cautious hope. The word is: grown up. "She doesn't burst into tears or stomp out of the room anymore," Parker said. "She asks smart, patient questions. That's not effort - that's just her nature now. People seem surprised that she is mature. But that's just basic developmental stuff - hopefully, simply by living, we get better at things. It's not surprising. It's just real." If Carrie is the compass, Miranda is the seismic shift. Her arc - which now includes a late-in-life queer awakening - may be the show's most radical contribution to TV. For Nixon, who publicly came out while still playing straight in the original Sex and the City, that evolution is deeply personal. "There's never a 'too late' moment. Miranda comes to queerness at 55," Nixon said. "That doesn't mean everything that came before was wrong. It just means this is her now. And it's messy. It can be messy. But it's real." On TV, where characters linger in our lives for years, intimacy and empathy develops: "Television puts someone in your living room, week after week. They're imperfect, they make you laugh, and eventually you say, 'I know that person. They're my friend'. "That's more powerful than one mythic, perfect film. That's where the change happens. There was a time when gay people on screen had to be saints or martyrs. Now, we can be characters like Miranda - who've had rich, fulfilling heterosexual lives and now stumble upon queerness, and not in a tidy way. There's collateral damage. That's important." Season 3 narrows its scope, pulling focus back to the emotional cores of Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte. What remains is a cleaner, more character-driven story. "I think one of the great things about our show is we show women in their 50s whose lives are very dramatic and dynamic," Nixon said. "You get to this age and there's a lot going on - if you choose to keep moving forward." Kristin Davis, who plays Charlotte, noted that those life shifts come fast and often overlap: "She really starts to unravel. But the joy is her friends are there". Fashion, as ever, is present - but now it feels more personal than aspirational. Parker described insisting on wearing a ripped vintage Vivienne Westwood shirt with a bleach hole: "It had to be in an important scene. It meant something". Even the show's iconic heels, still clacking through New York's brownstone-lined streets, feel louder this season. And yes, Carrie is writing again - not her usual musings, but a "historical romance" that lets the show wink at its own pretensions. Taxis become carriages. Voiceovers drift into period drama. Her beloved blouse - vintage, shredded, almost costume - fits the mood perfectly: century-leaping fashion for a century-leaping Carrie. "You're better today than you were 10 years ago," Parker said.
