"Only in real life and not online...": Sarah Michelle Gellar addresses rumoured feud with Jessica Love Hewitt
Sarah Michelle Gellar just cleared up the misunderstandings of the fans about an 'alleged beef' with Jennifer Love Hewitt , after not taking any pictures with the actress at the 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' premiere. The speculations between Sarah Michelle Gellar and Jennifer Love Hewitt While the red carpets were rolled, and photos were being captured, Gellar supported her husband, Freddie Prinze Jr. , for the latest instalment of the thrilling franchise. While Freddie and Jenniefer reprised their roles from the 1997 original hit film, Sarah's character unfortunately couldn't survive the previous film. Fans were quick to assume that there was some unresolved resentment between the two actresses after there was not a single picture of them posing together at the event. Sarah Michelle Gellar addressed... The 48-year-old took to Instagram to address the situation and shared a comment under her latest post, 'For everyone asking - I never got to see @jenniferlovehewitt, who is fantastic in the movie.' 'I was inside with my kids when the big carpet happened. And unfortunately JLH didn't come to the after party,' she continued. Clearing the misunderstandings, the 'Cruel Intentions' star further wrote, 'If you have ever been to one of these it's crazy. I sadly didn't get pics with most of the cast," and continued to vouch for their amazing friendship, "But that doesn't change how amazing I think they all are. Unfortunately, some things happen only in real life and not online." The ongoing speculative feud Previously, Gellar had spoken about the speculative rift with Hewitt among the fans in December 2024. The audience questioned whether Jennifer demanded Sarah's character to be killed off in the horror film. As a response, Jennifer addressed in an episode of the I've Never Said This Before with Tommy DiDario podcast, according to The Hollywood Reporter. 'I was 18. They were not taking script notes from me. All of us were in that experience together, you know, figuring it all out and everything. And I root for her and Freddie,' she said, before adding, 'I think it's the cutest thing in the world that they've been married for 100 years and have kids. It's, like, adorable. So it's just been really funny to see all of this stuff.'

Joshua Jackson and Eric Mabius 'blushed' after reuniting years after their passionate gay sex scene in 'Cruel Intentions'
Joshua Jackson and Eric Mabius "blushed scarlet red" when they bumped into each other "years" after their steamy gay sex scene in Cruel Intentions. The 47-year-old actor's alter ego Blaine Tuttle got school footballer Greg McConnell (Eric) in bed and gave him a "b******" as part of a blackmailing scheme with Blaine's friend Sebastian Valmont (Ryan Phillippe) to convince Greg that Sebastian is a good guy and that Sebastian can win his bet with step-sister Kathryn Merteuil (Sarah Michelle Gellar) - to seduce Annette Hargrove (Reese Witherspoon) before the start of the school term. Years after the "stressful" scene in the 1999 romantic-thriller film, Eric and his ex-wife Ivy Sherman happened to walk past Joshua whilst he took out his trash, and after a brief chat, Ivy asked how the pair are connected - which turned them red-faced. In an interview with Men's Health magazine, Joshua said: "So then years pass - and I don't see Eric after a long time after we've had this experience together - and I'm taking out my trash one day, and he and his wife walk by, because they've just moved in down the street. 'She sees us see each other and have this moment of like, 'Hey, what's up?' And she's like, 'Oh, how do you guys know each other?' 'And the two of us, now well into our 30s, I think both blushed scarlet red. Like, how do you explain what that connection was?' Cruel Intentions' director Roger Kumble got Joshua to perform the sexual act on his first day on the job. Joshua recalled: "I wasn't on Cruel Intentions very much, but I do believe that my first day on this movie was giving a man head. 'And that can be stressful for a 19-year old heterosexual boy, to sit in a room, and give another man a b******.' Joshua got through it by committing himself to the acting job. He added: "My stress test on this was to commit myself to this job that I had taken on and really make sure that I was all in, so to speak."

Fans can't get over how much Ava Phillippe's boyfriend looks like her father
Ava Phillippe will never live down the comparisons — and neither will her boyfriend. The 25-year-old daughter of actors Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe has made plenty of headlines through the years due to her striking resemblance to her iconic mother and father. But now fans are bringing her boyfriend, Dakota Brubaker, into the mix. Ava Phillippe and Brubaker, a musician who goes by the stage name Vindigo, went Instagram official in December after previously teasing their relationship several months prior. On June 10, Ava Phillippe posted a TikTok video of her and Brubaker lip syncing to Ke$ha's hit song, 'Your Love Is My Drug.' And it didn't take long for the 16-second clip to go viral. 'Close enough. Welcome back Reese & Ryan!' one fan wrote in the comment section. Fans were quick to point out how much Ava Phillippe looked like a '50-50 match' of her parents, but others were more focused on how much Brubaker resembled her father. 'Thought it was her dad for a split second,' one fan wrote, while another commented, 'Reese and Ryan is that you?' On June 11, Ava Phillippe returned to TikTok with a hilarious reaction to the comparisons. In the video, Ava Phillippe is standing in the kitchen when her boyfriend slides into frame wearing a black turtleneck and reading glasses — recreating her parents' look when they co-starred in 'Cruel Intentions.' 'You guys… whaaaaattt,' she wrote in the caption, while mouthing 'No, no, no, no,' in the video. The video was also set to The Verve's 'Bitter Sweet Symphony,' which was the song that played at the end of her parents' iconic movie, released in 1999. 'This song choice is DIABOLICAL,' one fan wrote in the comments, while another added, 'Not the turtle neck too.' Ryan Phillippe and Witherspoon met in 1997 at the latter's 21st birthday party, according to People. They quickly became one of Hollywood's biggest 'it' couples after announcing their engagement in 1998 and co-starred in 'Cruel Intentions' the following year, which officially put them on the map. The couple married in June 1999 and welcomed their first child (a daughter named Ava) in September of that year — six months after the premiere of 'Cruel Intentions.' 'I mean… technically you were IN Cruel Intentions…' one fan commented under Ava Phillippe's recent TikTok. Ryan Phillippe and Witherspoon welcomed a second child, a son named Deacon, in October 2003 before separating in 2006 and finalizing their divorce in 2008. Witherspoon has since welcomed a second son, Tennessee James, with her other ex-husband Jim Toth, whom she announced her divorce from in 2023. Meanwhile, Ryan Phillippe shares a second daughter, Kai, with his ex-girlfriend Alexis Knapp.

Selma Blair reveals the MS symptoms doctors dismissed since she was a kid: ‘It took me 30 years to get an MRI'
The world learned about Selma Blair's multiple sclerosis diagnosis nearly seven years ago — but the autoimmune disease has been tormenting her for most of her life. The 'Cruel Intentions' actress, now 52, can trace early symptoms back to her childhood, but claims doctors brushed off the red flags for decades. 'It took me 30 years to get an MRI,' Blair said last week during a panel at the second annual Women's Health Lab, hosted in partnership with Northwell Health's Katz Institute for Women's Health. Advertisement 3 Selma Blair was diagnosed with MS on August 2018. Getty Images for Glamour At the age of 7, Blair lost control of her bladder and use of her right eye and left leg — yet, after ruling out cancer, doctors and family branded her an attention seeker. What they missed: Juvenile MS, a debilitating disease that affects the central nervous system by disrupting the flow of information within the brain and between the brain and body. 'If you're a boy with those symptoms, you get an MRI. If you're a girl, you're called 'crazy',' Blair told British Vogue in 2023. Advertisement As a child, the 'Hellboy' actress would wake up laughing uncontrollably in the middle of the night. Decades later, those laughs gave way to sudden, uncontrollable spells of sobbing. 'I just thought I was a hugely emotional person,' Blair said. In reality, MS had damaged her frontal lobe — like a brain injury. Advertisement It would be another 40 years until she received the diagnosis. 3 Selma Blair with her service doc Scout at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party in 2025 Getty Images '[I was] thrilled,' Blair told People earlier this month. Advertisement 'I felt like people thought it had to be some tragic thing, but I was like, 'No, you don't understand,'' she said. 'I was feeling tragic inside before.' Blair, who shares 13-year-old son Arthur with ex Jason Bleick, said she often wondered what was 'wrong' with her before the diagnosis. 'I just did not understand how I was so different from people, but yet totally kind of fine-ish,' she told the outlet. 'I finally just felt seen.' Nearly 1 million Americans have been diagnosed with MS, according to the National MS Society. The disease can affect anyone, including children. You may be at higher risk if you're female, between 20 and 40, and of Northern European descent, per the Cleveland Clinic. 3 'If you're a boy with those symptoms, you get an MRI. If you're a girl, you're called 'crazy',' Blair said. Getty Images Doctors don't know exactly what causes MS, but research suggests that factors like smoking, childhood obesity, low vitamin D levels and genetics could be possible triggers. Advertisement Exposure to toxins like secondhand smoke and pesticides — as well as viruses such as Epstein-Barr or mono — may also increase the risk. Early warning signs of the MS include blurred vision, muscle weakness and numbness. As the disease progresses, symptoms can range from fatigue and dizziness to trouble with balance, bladder control, mood swings, muscle stiffness, and cognitive issues like memory and concentration problems. Many patients experiencing periods of remission where signs of the disease fade. While there is no cure, treatments can help manage symptoms and reduce flare-ups. Advertisement Last year, Blair revealed she suffered a major relapse after a stem cell transplant — but she's now in remission thanks to a new provider. Her doctor — the first woman she's ever been treated by — took a holistic approach, including factoring in the actresses early menopause. 'It really did change my life completely,' Blair said at the Women's Health Lab panel. 'We found a way to manage my MS and I am doing really, really well right now.'
