Before Elizabeth Gillies was starring in Little Shop of Horrors on Off-Broadway, she starred in 13 on Broadway. Even at just 15 years old, she was a powerhouse in that 2008 performance.
Yesterday, Ariana Grande hosted Saturday Night Live eight years after the first time she did it. And she was not alone off camera. The actress had a high school friend there to support her, and together, they were Victorious.
Who was it? Jade, I mean, Elizabeth Gillies! Even though Jade was a little tough on Cat, in real life, Gillies is always there for her friend. And I am here for it.
Personally, I wish that it had been Jade and Cat, not Sam and Cat, as the spinoff we got. They were my favorites on Victorious, and imagine the duets they could have sung together.
When it comes to Ariana hosting, the show sucked, but she nailed the shit they gave her to do, especially castrated Antonio. Grande and Gillies are both underrated for their acting.
On August 8th, Elizabeth Gilles and Michael Corcoran finally said I do, three months after their original wedding date.
The Dynasty actress and her producer boyfriend were slated to get married on April 25th in Atlanta, but then the coronavirus pandemic happened. They decided to postpone their nuptials and reschedule them for a year later.
Gilles told Vogue, “Then, as time went on, we decided a big wedding was no longer something that made sense for us. The virus really put things into perspective. That being said, we did want to get married as long as it could be done in a safe and intimate setting with a group that we trusted.”
In July, the couple decided that they wanted to get married a month later. With just weeks to plan, she found the perfect place in her home state of New Jersey. The betrothed couple bought an RV, packed up their dogs, and headed north. They spent two weeks in her childhood home until their big day arrived.
When it was time for her to walk down the aisle, her father was by her side. When they got to the end of the runway, he jumped in front of his daughter so that he could officiate the ceremony.
It was a beautiful, intimate affair between ten loved ones and their dogs. You didn’t think they brought their babies up there and didn’t have them be part of their big day.
It was a much smaller wedding then they planned on, but it is one they will never forget.
Congrats to the two! Fallon Carrington would be jealous.
Elaine Hendrix is going to make her Dynasty debut this Friday at 9p, and today The CW gave us our first look at the third Alexis on the nighttime soap. The actress looks just like her TV daughter Elizabeth Gillies. Which is interesting because Gillies played her stepdaughter on Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll. Gotta love soap operas, you go can go from playing a stepmom on one show to the actual mom on the next one.
Then again, Dynasty has been its own soap when the camera is not rolling. Hendrix is the third actress to play Alexis in as many seasons. Nicollette Sheridan originated the role, but quit to take care of her ailing mom. Gillies was the next one to take on the part, and now Hendrix got the job.
How long will she stay with the show? Only time will tell. What I want to know is, will she have a British accent like Joan Collins and Sheridan? I have a feeling we are not going to find out until 2020.
If you are not watching Dynasty, then you are missing out on the wildest scripted show on television. Each week, it gets crazier and crazier, and that is why it is the must-watch live show of the week for me. Make it yours too!
