Diane Keaton was on Jimmy Kimmel Live yesterday and she used starring with Andy Garcia in Book Club as a way to kiss the ABC host. She told him how much she liked working with the Godfather actor again and then asked Kimmel if he wanted to see what they did in the film that comes out tomorrow.
Of course, he said yes. The two stood up looked at each other and then she grabbed his face with both hands. As she went in for the kiss, she realized her hat was too big for the moment. That did not stop her because she tilted her head to the side and went right in for a very passionate kiss. So passionate, he was left flustered and I think stiff like she said he was during their lip lock.
What was so cute about this, is that he could not stop looking at her, the same way a boy looks at a girl who just gave him first real kiss. Which is probably why he said to her it was a dream come true! How many other boys his age lusted after when they were teenagers? Now he knows what Andy Garcia and so many other actors have felt when they finally got the chance to smooch her on camera.
Somehow Kal Penn was able to fit himself into the overhead compartment on an airplane, and it had an appropriate number on there for him, 69. Knowing that he is a few inches taller than me and those spaces are really small, he can totally 69 himself in it. Wouldn’t that a be a great moment to include in the fourth Harold & Kumar movie? When are we going to get that?
Anyways, back to him. How did he get himself into that position? I need to know. Because then I have to wonder if it is cheaper to fly that way. How much do you want to bet if Spirit can charge to people to fly in the overhead compartments, they would do it. Maybe they already do and that is how he did it? So much to ponder.
Yesterday on Jeopardy, they had a category all about movie quotes. Alex Trebek did one from Elf and attempted to do his best Will Farrell. How did go? Listen for yourself. I promise you that it is not the Laurel or Yanny audio, that I posted yesterday from him.
Back to the host, it was gallant effort, I am sure it made Ferrell happy, and it definitely made us laugh because it was so bad. He can’t be perfect at everything.
During Saturday’s matinee of The Boys in the Band, Jim Parsons fell and fractured his foot. He was not able to do the next couple of performances and an understudy had to fill in. You know the saying, “The show must go on”? Well, it did!
His Big Bang Theory nemesis went the show yesterday and John Ross Bowie shared a photo of the injured actor. The Speechless star wrote, “This is my friend Jim. Jim has a fractured foot. That did not stop Jim from going on in a boot for this evening‘s performance of The Boys In The Band. His work ethic and professionalism Always astonish me, but tonight was something else.” Then he added, “His performance is funny, mean, tragic and human. Also, I have never heard him curse so much. Honorable mention – the rest of the cast, each of whom have shining moments under the direction of Joe Mantello.
Thanks for a great evening of theater, Jim.”
Bowie also shared a sign from the Broadway theater that said Parsons is not in pain. And neither are the audience members because Sheldon Cooper’s TV brother Jerry O’Connell also praised the show and that was before he did it with a broken tootsie. If you are in NYC, go see it before it closes on August 11th.
After a week of is Meghan Markle’s father going to attend her wedding on Saturday, she finally announced his decision through Kensington Palace.
She said, “Sadly, my father will not be attending our wedding. I have always cared for my father and hope he can be given the space he needs to focus on his health.” Adding, “I would like to thank everyone who has offered generous messages of support. Please know how much Harry and I look forward to sharing our special day with you on Saturday.”
About two weeks ago, Thomas Markle suffered a heart attack and yesterday he underwent surgery to repair the damage.
When it comes to who will walk her down the aisle, we do not know. I think, if she wants to get in really good with the family, she should her ask her future father-in-law, Prince Charles, do it. Imagine how much they will love that honor?
