Matthew Broderick is starring in Plaza Suite on Broadway with Sarah Jessica Parker. In order to get the word out about the play, which opened last week, the actor is doing press for it. Yesterday, he appeared on Live with Kelly and Ryan plus Late Night with Seth Meyers.
Then, when he was done with that part of his day, it was time for him to go to work. Before he could go on the stage, he had to do a COVID test. That is when the actor found out that he had tested positive for the virus after two tests, according to Broadway World.
This makes me wonder if the talk shows are doing enough to protect their hosts. For example, Meyers gave Broderick a quick hug when he came out, which could put the NBC host at risk. Something that would be bad because he has children that are too young to get vaccinated. However, I don’t know when Broderick taped that appearance, so Meyers could be in the clear.
When it comes to Live, I think you can kind of see that his eyes are watery. But I could be reading too much into it because I watched the interview after I knew he tested positive.
Live with Kelly and Ryan are getting ready to bring their show to Hollywood to host After the Oscars on Monday. In order to promote that, Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest are recreating moments from the Oscar-nominated movies.
Kelly Ripa pretended to be Tammy Faye Bakker from The Eyes of Tammy Faye, and she might have been better than Jessica Chastain.
Now, Seacrest is trying to be Jonathan Larson singing 30/90 in Tick Tick Boom. How did he do? The only acting I can foresee him doing after this porn. That is because he looks like he is having an orgasm and sounds like some of the Adult Entertainers I used to hear sing at Porn Star Karaoke.
Seriously, his performance was so bad; the Academy should give Andrew Garfield the Academy Award for Best Actor out of pity for what Seacrest just did. Well, that and Garfield deserves it for Tick Tick Boom and The Eyes of Tammy Faye.
What did you think of Seacrest’s performance? What type of award would you give him?
Ryan Seacrest has a lot of bad habits, like hosting every show he can. But, what does he consider to be his worst? The hosts of almost every show said, “We’ve all made mistakes… What’s been your worst habit? Mine was the abuse of tanning beds.”
I don’t know, from the photo above, I would have gone with frosting his tips. But, they are is habits, and that one does cause cancer. So, he might be right. Wow, that took a depressing turn.
Due to COVID-19, So You Think You Can Dance has sat out two seasons on Fox. Therefore, you have to wonder if the dancing competition will grace us with another season this summer.
Yesterday, when Nigel Lythgoe was on On-Air with Ryan Seacrest, the Idol host asked him that very question. Lythgoe told him, “I think it is going to come back this year. No one has really contacted me yet. But there are rumors it is going to come back.”
Lythgoe then explained that it is hard for SYTYCD to live in a COVID-19 bubble because they are switching out choreographers every week, and the contestants swap partners. So with that in mind, it is hard to keep everyone as safe as a show like Dancing with the Stars. And that show couldn’t even protect its people from getting it.
Therefore, Lythgoe is hoping the pandemic will be closer to the end with vaccines so that his show can come back.
