This should have been a happy time for Alexa Pena and her husband, Carlos Pena. The couple were getting ready to welcome their fourth child and second daughter. However, they announced today that their baby girl did not survive.
There are never the right words to say when it comes to loss. After a beautiful and peaceful delivery our daughter “Indy” was born at rest. It has been a painful journey. But in the pain we have found peace. God continues to comfort and hold us in his arms. The prayers from the community around us have been so sustaining in this difficult season. This little girl has already changed our lives in so many ways. She was absolutely beautiful. And looked just like daddy. Dark hair and all. Grief has come to us in waves. Moments of feeling absolutely gutted… then moments of feeling blessed by just getting a moment with her.
We can’t understand why things like this happen and we may never get those answers.
Indy Rex PenaVega, you completely changed our world. You moved us to a new place. You gave us the community we have been longing for. We love you can’t wait to see how many other lives you change.
Vega revealed in a Vlog in mid-March that she was suffering from a placental abruption. She had the same complication with her third child, but it was much smaller then.
The PenaVegas have two sons, Ocean, 6, and Kingston, 4, and a daughter Rio, 2.
So, let’s start with the easy stuff first. ABC picked up The Rookie for season 7, and Disney Entertainment is still talking with Tamron Hall for a sixth season.
Now, let’s talk about what you want to talk about. Back in 1999, we got the new Soap Opera Passions. Since then, nothing. Just a lot of cancellations, like that one, Port Charles, Sunset Beach, All My Children, One Life to Live, As the World Turns, and Guiding Light.
However, today, CBS announced they picked up The Gates, which will debut in January. The Daytime Drama follows the lives of a wealthy Black family in a posh, gated community.
The Gates is a joint venture between CBS Studios and the NAACP.
It will be interesting to see who they cast. I am sure there are a lot of actors who will be clawing their way in to get an audition for the show. Who do you want to see star on the Soap?
Yesterday, CBS aired the highly anticipated Billy Joel: The 100th – Live at Madison Square Garden. However, the Masters ran late, and that caused the concert to start late. Therefore, the local news would also be starting later.
However, the local news started earlier than expected and cut the Piano Man off during his final song Piano Man.
Needless to say, the fans were pissed, as they should be.
So, today, CBS released this statement, “A network programming timing error ended last night’s Billy Joel special approximately two minutes early in the Eastern and Central Time Zones. We apologize to Mr. Joel, his fans, our affiliated stations, and our audience whose viewing experience was interrupted during the last song. Due to the overwhelming demand from his legion of fans, BILLY JOEL: THE 100TH – LIVE AT MADISON SQUARE GARDEN will be rebroadcast in its entirety on CBS on April 19th at 9:00PM ET/PT.”
I am surprised this happened again after the Heidi incident in 1968. That was when NBC cut off the NY Jets vs the Oakland Raiders and switched to the movie Heidi during the game. Fans missed the Raiders coming from behind in the final few minutes. And they went nuts. Can you blame them?
Since then, the networks have tried never to do that again. But yesterday, it happened, and CBS felt the Pressure to make it up to the fans.
So they will re-air it on Friday instead of repeats of Fire Country and Blue Bloods.
If you cannot wait until then, you can watch it on Paramount+.
Jared Leto might be part of the Spider-Man universe as Morbius. But it looks like he wants to play Peter Parker.
That is because the actor was seen scaling a building in Berlin without any assistance. Let’s see Tom Holland do that without any help. And the Oscar winner did it at 52, and Holland is almost half his age.
As to why he was doing it, the musician was doing it to promote the fact that his band 30 Seconds to Mars will be playing at the Uber Arena there on May 12th.
