No matter what John Legend does, I will always love him because he wrote All of Me for his wife, Chrissy Teigen. And what woman would not dream of her husband doing the same?
Lin-Manuel Miranda also wrote a song for his wife, Vanessa, and we heard it in Hamilton.
Today, when the musical magician was on The Drew Barrymore Show to promote All In: A Comedy About Love, she wanted to know if he would ever write a romantic musical for his wife.
“Oh, they’re all for my wife, though. They all have been. I mean, the character in In The Heights is named Vanessa, for gd’s sake,” he told her. “But you know it’s fun. It’s really funny, actually, because there’s a song in Hamilton called That Would Be Enough. And there is no historical precedent for that song. It’s just Eliza saying, like I just needed to be here, like that’s all I need. And I wrote it in a hail of snot and tears. Like it was one of those songs I didn’t find it in a historical book. I just was like feeling it for my wife. And I wrote the song. And I played it for her; my wife is a lawyer, and she’s very even-keeled. So I play it just like and ‘That would be enough.’ And I serenade her, and she goes, ‘Good.’ Yeah. It’s kind of like you heartless monster. But that’s my little love song to her in the middle of that show.”
How sweet is that? And when you listen to the lyrics, you can hear that they are about him spending so much time writing his musicals. As long as he comes home to her, she is OK with him doing that. At least, he wrote that way for her.
The latest version of The Hollywood Squares was supposed to debut on CBS tonight. However, the network decided to postpone the premiere for a week due to the LA fires.
The game show stars award-winning actress and talk show host, Drew Barrymore as the center square and hosted by Nate Burleson (co-host of CBS MORNINGS and analyst for THE NFL TODAY) is a classic game show in which two contestants play tic-tac-toe to win money and prizes. The “board” for the game is a vertical stack of open-faced cubes, each occupied by a celebrity seated at a desk and facing the contestants. The celebrities are asked questions and the contestants judge the legitimacy of their answers to win the game. Award-winning actress and talk show host, Drew Barrymore, will take her place as the famed “center square” answering questions for the contestants.
Ariana Grande has seen a lot throughout her long career, and yet she can still be left speechless by a sweet gesture.
On Thursday, the Wicked actress will be on The Drew Barrymore Show, and the producers staged something special for her. They got their hands on the wand that Billie Burke used in The Wizard of Oz when she played Glinda.
Grande was so amazed that she actually got to hold it, she was left awe struck. Then she did a Cat Valentine and tried to walk off the set with it. She was so close, but there was no pink bubble to whisk her away, so she sat back on the couch.
Just when you think that the Sam & Cat star could not get any cuter, she does. And that is why she is so Popular.
Chad Michael Murray and Sarah Roemer have been married for ten years, so how does the merry gentleman like it in the bedroom: naughty or nice?
We got that answer on The Drew Barrymore Show. “Naughty,” he boasted. “With a lot of nice. A lot of nice because there’s love and there’s love. And that matters.”
And I bet it also matters if he does that body roll move he showed Drew in bed because that move is definitely naughty! His wife is a lucky woman!
Earlier this year, CBS announced that they are bringing back Hollywood Squares, with Drew Barrymore in the center square.
Today, the network revealed some of the celebrities that will be sitting around her in the trivia Tic-Tac-Toe game.
They are Tyra Banks, Julie Bowen, Yvette Nicole Brown, Whitney Cummings, Akbar Gbajabiamila, Tiffany Haddish, Oliver Hudson, Pete Holmes, Gabriel Iglesias, Jo Koy, Jay Leno, Justin Long, Kevin Nealon, RuPaul, Andrew Rannells, Kristen Schaal, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, Sheryl Underwood and Jimmy O. Yang.
I wish that CBS brought back some of the celebrities who were staples on the John Davidson and Tom Bergeron eras of the game show, like Charo, Henry Winkler, Barbara Eden, Shadoe Stevens, Rosie O’Donnell, Whoopi Goldberg, Ruta Lee, and my good friend Khrystyne Haje.
How much fun would it be to see them back in a square?
Hollywood Squares premieres on January 9th, and then it moves to its regular night on January 29th.
