Many people took on new hobbies while staying home during the coronavirus pandemic. Len Goodman is one of those people, and the Dancing with the Stars judge spent his time growing a vegetable garden with his wife, Sue.
Today, he lettuce, I mean, let us and This Morning’s anchors, Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby, see what he has been planting. Not only were they impressed, so I was.
Something that started as out as what he thought would be a necessity, in case we ran out of veggies, turned into something that he and his wife, since 2012, enjoy doing during this tough time.
For those of us, who say you can be too old to try something new, he is 76 and look at what he is doing. Just like his vegetable garden, he is blooming.
I wonder what he is going to do when Dancing with the Stars starts up again. Will he leave his babies in Kent? Maybe he can transfer some of them to the States with him? He can have Bruno Tonioli talk to them. I am sure that the plants will flourish with his enthusiastic voice. Something that they are not used to with their dad’s calming one. Not that either are a bad thing.

Over the weekend, Megan Fox and Michael Bay were trending on Twitter because of past things that the actress said about the director when he hired her for two of his movies. In 2009, she talked to Jimmy Kimmel about Bay casting her as an extra in Bad Boys II when she was just 15 years old, and she was only wearing a bikini. He filmed her under a waterfall for her scene. People said he sexualized her.
That was not the only time, there was another interview when she reportedly told the interviewer that he made her wash his car as he filmed her to get a role in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.
When Fox found out about these stories resurfacing, she decided to release a statement clarifying what she meant:
I know that a discussion has erupted online surrounding some of my experiences in Hollywood and the subsequent mishandling of this information by the media and society in general.
While I greatly appreciate the outpouring of support, I do feel I need to clarify some of the details as they have been lost in the retelling of the events and cast a sinister shadow that doesn’t really, in my opinion, belong. At least not where it’s currently being projected…
I was around 15 or 16 years old when I was an extra in Bad Boys II. There are multiple interviews where I shared the anecdote of being chosen for the scene and the conversations that took place surrounding it. It’s important to note however that when I auditioned for Transformers I was 19 or 20.
I did ‘work’ (me pretending to know how to hold a wrench) on one of Michael’s Ferrari’s during one of the audition scenes. It was at the Platinum Dunes studio parking lot, there were several other crew members and employees present and I was at no point undressed or anything similar.
Please hear me when I thank you for your support. But these specific instances were inconsequential in a long and arduous journey along which I have endured some genuinely harrowing experiences in a ruthlessly misogynistic industry.
There are many names that deserve to be going viral in cancel culture right now, but they are safely stored in the fragmented recesses of my heart.
But when it comes to my direct experiences with Michael, and Steven for that matter, I was never assaulted or preyed upon in what I felt was a sexual manner.
I’m thankful to all of you who are brave enough to speak out and I’m grateful to all of you who are taking it upon yourselves to support, uplift, and bring comfort to those who have been harmed by a violent and toxic societal paradigm.
You know that she is serious about getting the truth out there because she has yet to release any statements about the demise of her marriage to Brian Austin Green.
Back when the coronavirus pandemic hit America hard, America’s Got Talent was filming new episodes. Just like everything else in Hollywood, it got shut down.
Since Simon Cowell is an innovator, he came up with an interesting way so that they can continue doing the show during COVID-19.
How are they going to do it? The first big difference, seen in Sofia Vergara’s photo, is that there is not going to be an audience. Instead of taping inside a studio, they are doing it outside on a lot. The judges, Cowell, Vergara, Howie Mandel, and Heidi Klum, are not sitting behind a desk, instead, they are sitting in directors’ chairs.
When it comes to the stage, it looks that they are replacing itwith a huge screen so that the acts don’t have to come to Hollywood until they do the live shows. If they do come to Los Angeles, that is.
I am impressed with what they did. I wonder if Dancing with the Stars and The Masked Singer will follow this format in the fall?
I am not sure when these episodes will air. However, tonight on NBC at 8p, you can see Eric Stonestreet fill in for Heidi Klum, who was out sick with something that was not the corona.

Back in 1989, DC Universe brought Batman to the big screen with Michael Keaton as the caped crusader. Now, thirty years later, the actor is in talks to reprise his role in The Flash movie.
It gets better. According to The Hollywood Reporter, if he signs on to do it, he will be like Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury in Marvel Universe. As in he would be a mentor to other superheroes in the films that call for it.
If Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice turns it down, then I wonder if they will go to Val Kilmer or George Clooney. Personally, I think they should go to the latter because he looks older. That and he killed the franchise once, let’s see him do it again. I am so over superhero movies.
