Owen Wilson Reveals the 2 Unique Careers His Younger Son Wants to Explore
During a Monday, June 2, appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live,' Owen Wilson made some rare comments about parenthood The actor revealed that his younger son Finn is interested in being a DJ or opening a prank shop Wilson is dad to sons Ford, 14, and Finn, 11, and daughter Lyla, 6Owen Wilson's son has some interesting career goals. During a Monday, June 2, appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Wilson shared some rare insight into fatherhood. The 56-year-old actor is a dad to three kids: sons Ford, 14, and Finn, 11, and daughter Lyla, 6. In particular, he revealed two jobs that Finn has been considering for the future. "My youngest, first he wanted to be a DJ, and then he said he wanted to open a prank shop. He even had the name of the prank shop: Wilson's Wizzbangs. You know, he had the gun where you grab it and it could give you a little shock," Wilson shared. He continued, saying, "I think there's an age that kids go through where they're really... you know, they love the idea of doing a prank," he said, prompting host Jimmy Kimmel to declare that he "[hadn't] graduated from that stage." While on the show, Wilson also recalled attending a Los Angeles Football Club soccer game with his kids, where they met legendary soccer star Lionel Messi. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. "We were so excited," he raved. "I am out of body. First of all, when he was leaving the field, it was like a John Hughes movie. Like Pretty in Pink. He looks over, and I'm like, 'Is he looking at me?! Is he looking at us?'" He continued, recalling, "Then he starts coming over, and the next thing there he was. And signed Ford's shirt." Wilson made it very clear that he was a fan, adding, "It's the most excited I've ever been to see someone." The actor's day was made even better when he got a hug from the professional athlete. In fact, he even used the opportunity to brag a bit about having a better experience with Messi than his kids did. "We were talking about that because the kids on the way home were like, 'Did you see he signed my shirt?' and 'He gave me a high five.' I was like, 'Guys, did you not see he hugged me?!' You know, classic middle child." Wilson's big takeaway from hugging Messi was about his skin: "The first thing I felt when I hugged him is like... His skin is really soft." "He's not just a great soccer player; he has beautiful skin," he added. While he and his sons have attended a few soccer games together, the actor has largely kept them out of the spotlight. Wilson shares Ford with his ex-girlfriend Jade Duell, Finn with his once-trainer Caroline Lindqvist, and Lyla with Varunie Vongsvirates Read the original article on People

EXCLUSIVE: The Bryant Park free summer movie lineup is officially here
Those free movie nights at Bryant Park aren't just a beloved annual tradition for attendees, but for spectators, too. (Seriously, who doesn't love watching the weekly scramble of everyone trying to plop their picnic blanket in the ideal spot to watch Jaws for the 1,000th time? It's a movie in and of itself!) And we're gloriously getting yet another season of the summertime favorite when Paramount+ Movie Nights at Bryant Park returns with a bold lineup of celebrated films and crowd-pleasing favorites next month. Bryant Park's big screen will light up summer nights in Midtown beginning on June 9 with an 8pm showing of the 1980s Molly Ringwald classic, Pretty in Pink. And there are plenty more great flicks where that came from—the free series will run weekly on Monday nights through August 11, with everything from Francis Ford Coppola's Oscar-winning masterpiece The Godfather to Christopher Nolan's sci-fi weeper Interstellar all ready to be enjoyed under the stars in midtown Manhattan. 'Each summer, we see strangers become neighbors on the lawn,' said Dan Biederman, president of Bryant Park Corporation. 'Movie Nights remind us how powerful simple moments, like watching a great film outdoors, can be in bringing people together.' What's the full lineup for Bryant Park Movie Nights? Check out all of the top-notch titles you'll be able to watch for free this summer at Bryant Park: June 9: Pretty in Pink June 16: The Wood June 23: Kinky Boots June 30: Stand by Me July 7: Good Will Hunting July 14: Interstellar July 21: Ghost July 28: Pulp Fiction August 4: Blades of Glory August 11: The Godfather What time should I get to Bryant Park for movie nights? As mentioned, these summertime screenings are very popular, so Bryant Park recommends getting there at 6pm in order to snag a good spot. However, we suggest getting there even earlier, like 5pm, when the lawn opens for picnicking. Can I bring food to Bryant Park movie night? Yes, you're welcome to BYO food and drinks. But if you don't want to a haul a picnic basket through midtown, food items are curated by Hester Street Fair on the Fountain Terrace and available for purchase. You can also snag for-purchase beer, wine and summer spritzes from Stout NYC on the eastern end of the lawn beginning at 5pm. What else do I need to know?

23 Iconic TV And Movie Prom Looks Ranked From "Burn It" To "Bury Me In It"
Just so you know, this ranking includes outfits from proms, homecomings, dances from outside the US, and all other types of formal high school soirées, because there are some iconic looks that deserve a spot on the list, even if they don't technically appear in a prom scene. And now, without any further ado, an entirely subjective ranking of 23 iconic onscreen prom looks from "mediocre" to "literally what dreams are made of." 23. Andie Walsh's DIY two-dresses-in-one mashup from Pretty in Pink. I want to like this dress so badly, because Andie made it herself, and that deserves a near-endless amount of kudos. But... ...I just don't! From the high lace neckline to the poof-forward sleeves to the polka dot pattern to the way it fits, nothing here is working for me. 22. Josie Geller's Renaissance gown from Never Been Kissed. I love a statement sleeve (and a statement dress), but the pink and green color scheme, along with the sheer amount of lace, is alarming to me. That being said, this dress is supposed to be a costume. While it's not my personal style, as a former drama kid I can only imagine how much fun it would be to wear it onstage and feel Shakespearean as hell. 21. Carrie Bradshaw's senior prom look from The Carrie Diaries. Oh, boy. Carrie, you grow into a fashion icon, but now is not your time. The random swirling pattern is what takes it from "quirky" to "bad" for me. It just looks like the carpet of your local bowling alley. If you're curious, these dresses are arranged from left to right in the order of how much I like them. 20. Rory Gilmore's vintage throwback dress from Gilmore Girls. First of all: Love the boots. Second of all: Eh. I just can't condone a navy prom dress. Maybe it's my long history of having to wear school uniforms, but I don't associate this color with joyful self-expression. 19. Erin Quinn's turquoise gown from Derry Girls. Here's the problem with this outfit: Erin is clearly uncomfortable in it, and that violates the First Commandment of Clothes. That's why it's such a relief when she changes out of this perfectly-nice-but-not-Erin dress and into... ...her Easter frock. I don't like how this dress looks, nor does Erin, but that's not really the point. She obviously feels way better in it than she did in her blue gown, and that makes it a good outfit. 18. Bella Swan's modest, "I almost died, so yeah I'm wearing leggings to the prom" outfit from Twilight. Summit Entertainment I know that Bella's been through a lot, and she's dealing with a healing broken leg, but this look is just unforgivably bland. Summit Entertainment The movie doesn't dwell on this outfit, because I think it knows it could've done better. The blue tiered dress underneath the cardigan (*shiver*) is fine, but it's more "guest at an acquaintance's wedding" than "teenage girl going out with the immortal love of her life." Summit Entertainment I'd like to get on the record that I'm not opposed to cardigans in general; I'm just opposed to them in this specific context. The last thing I want is to have Big Wool after me. 17. Sharpay's hot pink performance dress from High School Musical 3. I've never seen High School Musical 3, but as far as I can tell, the musical is about their prom? So even though this is a costume, I'm counting it. While I love the matching gloves, the rest of the dress isn't working for me. The tulle peaking out of the skirt seems like an afterthought, and since this is Sharpay, after all, I would expect more bedazzling than the few little stones on the bodice. 16. Buffy's lavender rhinestoned gown from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Mutant Enemy Productions I said lavender, but it may be mauve, which I think is basically lavender that's feeling a bit under the weather. When I first saw it, I definitely didn't love it, but it's fine. Completely acceptable. And then... Mutant Enemy Productions BAM! It's got a giant A bustle? I get the need for drama, but this actively makes the dress worse. Mutant Enemy Productions It looks off-centered and a bit haphazard, like the wardrobe department had to pin it up to make sure it didn't drag too much. The reveal of the bustle (I'm just going with it now) happens to coincide with one of the show's most heartwarming moments: Buffy receiving the "Class Protector" award. And to be honest, it's a touch distracting. Mutant Enemy Productions This dress receives extra points for being in one of the series' best scenes, and negative points for committing the crime of bustle in the first degree. 15. Liz's "I'm blissfully ignorant of my father's super-villainy" party dress from Spider-Man: Homecoming. Marvel / There's nothing wrong with it, but it's a little plain, and comes across as more "interview" than "party." Marvel / The length and overall shape of it are cute, though. I just wish there was a statement accessory. Maybe something that says, "My dad is an illegal arms dealer, and until that meddling Spider-Man showed up, he was doing pretty well for himself." Marvel And I can't with flats. I don't like how they look, and I don't like how the flat industry lies to us and tells us that they're more comfortable than heels. They're not! They're just uncomfortable in new and innovative ways! 14. Gabriella Montez's fluffy white dress from High School Musical 3. Disney Just like Sharpay's look above, this dress is a costume from the high school musical about prom that features prominently in the high school musical High School Musical 3. That makes sense, right? Disney I love the thin little feathers attached to this dress, and it has great movement while Gabriella dances. But there's nothing particularly special about it, either. It's the sort of dress you'd try on, like, and then forget about five dresses later. Disney The feathers attached to the shoes are a brilliant touch, though. 13. Mercedes' purple gown from Glee. 20th Century Fox This dress is definitely of an era (specifically, the late '00s), and while that era may have passed, it's still a statement gown that looks great on Mercedes. 20th Century Fox This is without a doubt a prom dress, as in, it's a dress that would be completely out of place in any scenario other than a high school prom. It's a look you only get one or two chances to pull off, and Mercedes recognized that and delivered. 20th Century Fox 12. Regina George's satin minidress from Mean Girls. Paramount Pictures Side note: I've never noticed before that Amy Poehler is also wearing a prom dress in this scene. It's a perfect character moment, and I have no notes. It's not quite the bombshell look you'd expect from a Queen Bee, but as Cady points out, Regina still looks this good after fracturing her spine, so credit where credit is due. Paramount And the flowers adorning Regina's brace move it from "cute but forgettable" to "movie costume Hall of Famer." Paramount 11. Kat Stratford's reluctant prom attendee dress from 10 Things I Hate About You. Buena Vista Pictures It's sophisticated and mature, like Kat herself, but just a little too drab for my tastes. Buena Vista Pictures The pearls and shawl age up this look considerably. (The pearls are significant because they belonged to Kat's mother, but aesthetically I'm not into their use here.) Also, that hair looks like it would be painful. I got an updo for one of my proms, and it wasn't anywhere near as elaborate as Kat's, but I still spent around 30 minutes afterward pulling out bobby pin after endless bobby pin. Buena Vista Pictures / Courtesy Everett Collection 10. Santana's mermaid gown from Glee. 20th Century Fox Again, this dress is from a period piece, and the period is "10 years ago." But while the ruching is a little extreme, the dress as a whole is dramatic and fun. 20th Century Fox The single shoulder strap of fake roses is pretty spectacular too. 20th Century Fox 9. Sandy's simple white dress from Grease. Paramount I like this dress because I feel like dresses like this don't really exist anymore, outside of the costume closets of regional theater companies that have recently done Grease. Paramount / Courtesy Everett Collection I'm not a big fan of the embellishments around the waist, since they come across as a little flower girl-y, but this dress has so much movement that it just seems fun to wear. Paramount / Courtesy Everett Collection Plus those white patent leather dance shoes are absolutely adorable and would make such a satisfying sound while you walked across the gym floor. 8. Toni Topaz's beaded ensemble from Riverdale. CW I remember trying on dresses like this! The heavily embellished top combined with a chic black skirt make for a glamorous combination. CW I'm biased, because I wore a black prom dress, but can I just say, I love a black prom dress! CW 7. Sam Montgomery's Cinderella costume from A Cinderella Story. Warner Bros. Pictures This gown is objectively a totally absurd thing to wear to a costume party. But it's sort of magical because of its absurdity. Warner Bros. Pictures The transition from lace to rhinestones on the bodice is a bit clumsy, though. Warner Bros. Pictures But the best part of this ensemble is definitely our Cinderella's early 2000s glass slipper: Her star-studded, ankle-holstered cellphone. Warner Bros. Pictures When Sam has to leave the party before midnight, it's this phone that her Prince Charming discovers. (Prince Charming is Chad Michael Murray dressed in a very convenient Prince Charming costume.) 6. Blair Waldorf's gold-embroidered peacock gown from Gossip Girl. CW This dress is as rich kid ridiculous as you'd expect, and then some. But that doesn't mean it's not beautiful. CW I could see someone wearing this to a bird-themed Met Gala and not making waves, exactly, but getting a respectful "they understood the assignment" from Twitter. And extremely expensive prep schools always have the best prom queen tiaras. CW 5. Emma and Alyssa's sparkly/retro looks in The Prom. Netflix / Courtesy Everett Collection What I like about these outfits is that they take the traditionally masculine (suits, sneakers, a boutonniere)... Netflix ...and the traditionally feminine (pink, glitter, a corsage)... Netflix / Courtesy Everett Collection ...and then individualize and subvert those traditions to create looks that are equal parts unique, queer, and fun as hell. They're not my personal style, but they're undeniably their characters'. Netflix Out of the two, Alyssa's glittery party dress is probably my favorite, though you can't deny the fact that Emma would become an instant school legend for that powder blue tux. These outfits also don't take themselves too seriously, which is a common onscreen prom pitfall. Netflix / Courtesy Everett Collection It's a dance, not a State Dinner. 4. Tina's second prom dress from Season 5 of Glee. 20th Century Fox So Tina walks into prom wearing this... 20th Century Fox ...but then she gets doused in red goo, Carrie -style, so she changes into this. 20th Century Fox Stop Carrie -ing your classmates, everyone! I love this dress. I love its length, its color, its commitment to its shininess. The only thing I'm not totally on board with is the pieces of unadorned fabric crisscrossing the bodice, but I'm willing to forgive that, because this is adorable. 20th Century Fox 3. Carrie's sweet pre-telekinetic rampage look from Carrie. Red Bank Films / Courtesy Everett Collection Is this dress seconds away from being drenched in pig's blood? Yes. But does that mean we can't appreciate it, prior to it being drenched in pig's blood? No! Here's Carrie's (nearly identical) dress from the 2013 remake. Sony Pictures / Courtesy Everett Collection The shape of the dress (and Carrie's hair) are pretty damn close to the 1976 version, though the choice of fabric modernizes the look slightly. It looks like velour to me, but that's just a guess. It ends badly for everyone, but I appreciate this look's simplicity. It's pretty, you can dance in it, and it looks great with a crown: What's not to like? (That '70s prom tux. That's what.) Red Bank Films / Courtesy Everett Collection That being said, I've never loved the whole shawl thing. You can't make me carry around a long, unattached piece of fabric and not expect me to a) trip over it and b) wave it around like I'm one of those Olympic ribbon dancers. 2. Bianca Stratford's hot pink tutu look from 10 Things I Hate About You. Buena Vista Pictures / Courtesy Everett Collection Employee at the Prom Dress Store: How much tulle are you looking for? Bianca: Yes. Folks, it's time for some separates. The crop top + big skirt was a huge prom trend when I was in high school, though I never saw it executed with a floor length tutu, unfortunately. Buena Vista Pictures From the pink rhinestone necklace to the tiny useless bag to the shiny satin top: Bianca committed, and she looks great. The thin silver headband doesn't quite match with the rest of the look (not that that's inherently a problem; it's just, the rest of this look matches). Buena Vista Pictures OK, fine, I'll admit it: I mostly included this image to remind you that Bianca's wearing this outfit when she breaks the nose of her (and Kat's) shitty ex-boyfriend. She's defending her honor, her sister's, and a young Joseph Gordon-Levitt's, all at once. It's perfect. And now, the moment you've all been waiting for, the culmination of it all, the crème de la crème of the prom genre, my number-one pick for the best onscreen prom dress... MTV / 1. Cheryl Blossom's bombshell gown from Riverdale. CW This dress delivers both in its overall impression and in its details. I love the back, and the bow at the waist is an unexpected (but welcome) nod to an earlier era of prom dresses. CW The drama of this look is exquisite, and not only because she's modeling it in her creepy family mansion. This is the dress you wear for tearful declarations of love, for accepting your Oscar, for getting interviewed before you enter the Hunger Games. Prom is built up, rightly or wrongly, as a big moment in a young person's life, and this dress — nay, this gown — is made for a Big Moment and is itself one. CW It may be more at home on the red carpet than in a high school gym, but it's too gorgeous to not take the top spot.

Charlie Sheen's co-star makes astonishing claim about President Trump as he calls them both 'addicts'
Jon Cryer is standing by his 2016 claim that Charlie Sheen, 59, would be a better president than septuagenarian Donald Trump, 78. Cryer said that if he had to choose between his Two and a Half Men co-star and the current occupant of the White House, he'd choose Sheen to have control over the nuclear codes. The Pretty in Pink actor, 60, made the comment when Trump was running for president the first time. 'I have been pointing out, and I have been screaming to the rooftops, that Donald Trump is the Charlie Sheen of politics. 'I have to tell you, I love Charlie Sheen, I loved working with him when he was sober, but he was, he's full of s***. He has been full of s***, he has serious addiction. His addiction is obviously serious, drugs, but Trump is just addicted to feeling important. But now, he's explained his comment during an appearance on The MeidasTouch Podcast. Sheen would say 'whatever came to the top of his head' and 'people loved it,' Cryer said in 2016. 'And they loved it even more when he said horrible things.' 'To be clear, as many issues as Charlie faces, I do think he'd be a better president' than Trump, Cryer said on the MeidasTouch podcast Wednesday. 'What I was pointing out was that, at the time when I made that comment, Charlie was still just going off and saying whatever stupid tiger blood comment he was making,' Cryer explained. 'Trump has always been comfortable saying whatever stupid thing he said because most people sort of wrote him off as harmless and didn't hold him responsible for those things.' And it was Trump's harmlessness at the time that prompted the comparison Cryer made between Sheen and Trump. However, nine years later, he has a new spin on it. The current president's 'allure to the people who like him is that he just says whatever stupid thing he's thinking. They say, "Well, that's him being authentic." 'But he's always been like that old guy at the end of the bar who thinks he knows how the world works, but he's really kind of a loser.' Cyer continued: 'He'd still be a better president than Trump,' the actor said, slightly amending his earlier comments. 'I don't know that it's fair to completely lump the two of them together,' he added during Wednesday's podcast. In January, Cryer managed to shock Bill Maher with his liberal rhetoric about the so-called 'disgusting' reason Kamala Harris lost to Donald Trump. The Two and a Half Man actor joined Maher's Club Random podcast where he claimed Trump won the election because Republicans 'hate Black women and trans people.' The HBO host - who recently unloaded on liberals and Democrats in a high-profile interview -initially gave his prognosis on why Democrats lost. 'I warned everybody about Trump, and then I warned them that I warned them about what would get him reelected, which was stupid wokeness, which is what got him reelected,' Maher said. Cryer interjected, suggesting it was a lot of things and that 'wokeness' was only 'maybe part of it.' After Maher responded by suggesting there was polling to prove his point. Cryer argued the election result was due to inflation, which he said 'Americans hate.' The comic acknowledged that inflation 'certainly was part of it' when Cryer unleashed on him. 'They hate inflation. They hate riots and they hate Black women. And they hate trans people,' Cryer said. Maher, aghast, said: 'God, Jon, we're not going to-' when Cryer interrupted him, saying that Republicans 'spent hundreds of millions of dollars' advertising against those issues. Cryer persisted, saying those hundreds of millions of dollars went to 'demonizing trans people and that's disgusting.' Maher had enough, saying: 'Yeah. We shouldn't talk politics.' The actor was in agreement there, saying: 'Okay, we shouldn't. I mean, great. I don't, we don't have to.' Maher then suggested he would like to 'deprogram' both people on the right and far left, suggesting a new showed called 'Deprogramming Duckie' in reference to Cryer's character in Pretty in Pink.
