'Both of them have had hardship, and they're both beautiful human beings,' Curtis continued of the stars as she got choked up. 'If they actually have found an intimate love with each other, we should all go to bed tonight feeling better.'
Curtis also called Anderson, 58, 'a beautiful person' and noted that the 'Baywatch' alum 'was fantastic' in their 2024 film 'The Last Showgirl.'

'And he also suffered an unimaginable loss so young, and has had a really hard go of it,' Curtis added of Neeson, 73, who became a widower in 2009 after his wife Natasha Richardson died in a ski accident.
'So if, in fact, these people have hard launched, then wish them the best and leave them alone,' Curtis concluded.
Neeson and Anderson struck up chemistry while filming 'The Naked Gun' reboot.

'It's a budding romance in the early stages,' a source told People last week. 'It's sincere, and it's clear they're smitten with each other.'
While Neeson and Anderson haven't outright confirmed they're dating, they have gushed over each other during the film's press tour.

'I think I have a friend forever in Liam. And we definitely have a connection that is very sincere, very loving, and he's a good guy,' Anderson told Entertainment Weekly earlier this month.
Neeson told People in October that he was 'madly in love' with Anderson.
'I can't compliment her enough, I'll be honest with you,' the 'Taken' actor said. 'No huge ego. She just comes in to do the work. She's funny and so easy to work with.'

Anderson planted a kiss on Neeson's cheek at the London premiere of 'The Naked Gun' last month, and then they pretended to make out during an appearance on 'Today' later in July.

Anderson, for her part, has had five marriages with four different men, including Mötley Crüe rocker Tommy Lee, who is the father of her sons Brandon Thomas Lee, 29, and Dylan Jagger Lee, 27.

Pat McAfee goes off on ‘bum ass suits at ESPN' while praising $1.6 billion WWE deal
Not everyone with the WWE has glowing things to say about ESPN. Former wrestling commentator and current ESPN host Pat McAfee called out some of the mid-level 'suits' as bums after the announcement on Wednesday that WWE and the network are teaming up on a deal to broadcast the promotion's premium live events. 'Congrats to the @WWE and @espn on getting a historic PLE deal done,' McAfee said in a post on X. 4 Pat McAfee figures to see his role only grow in the coming months with this latest move bringing WWE to ESPN. Icon Sportswire via Getty Images 4 John Cena defended his WWE Worlds title against Cody Rhodes at Met Life Stadium on August 3, 2025. George Napolitano / 'Great to see 2 powerhouses of sports and entertainment come together. I assume all the mid-level, powerless, bum ass suits at ESPN will attempt to muddy this somehow (out of context leaks/ignorant anonymous opinions/etc.) but, in the end.. this agreement will outlive the dinosaurs currently guarding desks in Bristol and this deal will be great for ESPN. Cheers to the future.' The deal, which will run for five years and is worth $1.6 billion, will allow ESPN to broadcast WWE events such as WrestleMania, SummerSlam and the Royal Rumble as part of its new direct-to-consumer service that launches later this month. 4 Triple-H and the WWE will be on ESPN programming.

Williamson was the company's executive editor and head of event and studio production. McAfee went hard after Williamson, who left ESPN in January, on multiple occasions, even saying 'I don't got a motherf–king boss' last February. ESPN and McAfee have been business partners since September 2023, when the former NFL punter inked a five-year $85 million deal.

John Cena Got A Hair Transplant
John Cena is the latest celebrity to get candid about his cosmetic surgery procedures. In an Aug. 6 interview with People, the WWE champion opened up about his life-changing hair transplant and facing the pressures of aging in the spotlight. Last July, John announced that he's retiring from the ring in 2025, and explained that "age plays a factor." The 17-time WWE World champion wants to make room for young, new wrestlers. "I'm not as strong or as fast as I used to be. I made a promise when I started gaining some notoriety that when I'm a step slower, I will go, because there will be kids just as hungry as I was who have earned a shot to see if they can make it," he said. As his retirement from wrestling approaches, he's focusing on his health and 4-year marriage to Shay Shariatzadeh. "My health and my dedication to my partner are the tip of my spear in life right now, so I think every time I go out [in the ring], I just want to make sure I'm able to give my all, but it's time to step away," John continued. The Peacemaker actor said his "farewell" tour will serve as a closure for his fans, who he described as "the reason for my optimism, my perserveance, my passion." "They don't let you get away with phoning it in, because they'll eat you alive," he added, before opening up about a topic that he's addressed recently after bullying from fans: his hair loss, and whether or not he got a hair transplant. "As I was trying to hide my hair loss, the audience was bringing it to light," John said. "I saw their signs that said 'The bald John Cena,'" he said. "They pushed me into going to see what my options were. I now have a routine: red-light therapy, minoxidil, vitamins, shampoo, conditioner — and I also got a hair transplant last November." "I hate the fact that if there wasn't so much shame around it, I'd have gotten it done 10 years ago. I thought I was alone, but seven or eight out of 10 [men] suffer from thinning or baldness." The bullying doesn't work on John in the same way at this point in his career. He's actually "fired up" about the topic of his hair. "If somebody's going to sweat me for that, I don't think there's any shame in that," he said. "It completely changed the course of my life." "They don't do anything except move your hair, one by one, from one area to another," he added. The wrestling superstar has established himself as an actor with recurring roles in action movies like the Fast and Furious franchise, Heads of State (2025), or comedies like 2023's Vacation Friends 2 and Barbie. And John said his hair has given him more range to continue his acting. "A different hairstyle can identify a part that can get me more work, do the thing I love to do."
