CNN —While Marvel fans are excited for the super-heroic teamup between Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman in this summer’s “Deadpool & Wolverine,” there is another character – of the four-legged variety – set to make her debut in the movie as well. “Her real name is Peggy, and she won the award for Britain’s Ugliest Dog,” Reynolds told Empire Magazine in an article published on Tuesday. “It was one of those things where you just keep listening to the movie, and Dogpool became a staple.”According to BBC, Peggy won the unique title of Britain’s ugliest dog in January of 2023. Equipped with her very own “Dogpool” Instagram page, Peggy also appeared in a still from the new movie on Reynolds’ own Instagram in December of last year. “It’s love at first sight,” he told Empire of the bond between his character Deadpool and the pup.

CNN —In her 2024 Netflix special “Have It All,” stand-up comedian Taylor Tomlinson has a bit about coming out as bisexual. It can sour otherwise happy events, such as Pride Month in June or Bi Visibility Day in September. I attended my first Pride events, ranging from campus events in 2014 to local parades in 2019, as the straight person I was pretending to be. I continued second-guessing myself, so much so that I could hardly enjoy Pride events. It’s the piece I was missing at my early Pride events, when I was too busy quantifying my behavior and assuming I came up short.

Rebecca Ferguson said she once asked for an "absolute idiot" costar to be replaced with a tennis ball after they screamed abuse at her, reducing her to tears on set. The actor did not name the individual but did confirm it was not her "Mission Impossible" costar Tom Cruise. The next day on set, Ferguson decided to challenge her costar and put an end to his unacceptable behavior. I'm going to work toward a tennis ball. Using a tennis ball attached to a stick as a focal point for the actors to look at is common in movies when CGI is involved.

CNN —Rebecca Ferguson may use “the Voice” while playing her powerful “Dune” character, but she also knows how powerful her own voice can be in real life. While Ferguson ruled out two former costars in the podcast interview – namely, Hugh Jackman and Tom Cruise – speculation has run rampant as to whom she might have been talking about. One of her previous scene partners surfaced on social media to praise the actress for her bravery – Dwayne Johnson, who wrote on X, “Hate seeing this but love seeing her stand up to bulls–t. “I remember being so scared and I looked at this person and I said, ‘You can F off. “I’m not scared of the consequences of saying what I think,” Ferguson said.

☆ How America’s once great department stores became a dying breed
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-27 | by ( Chris Isidore | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +12 min

But department stores, focused on America’s middle class, are fading. The victims of shifting consumer tastes were not the department stores that anchored the local mall, it was the small, locally owned stores along downtown shopping districts that were closing their doors. And possibly even more than the big box competitors, department stores have suffered from consumers shifting to buying items online rather than in person. The steady closing of the department stores that once served as “anchors” of malls across suburban America has been another nail in the coffin of many malls, hurting the department stores that remained in hollowed-out malls with a fraction of their earlier traffic. Saunders said one of the primary problem for Macy’s is that its holding company, formerly known as Federated Department Stores, spent much of its resources on buying other department store brands, such May’s Department Stores, and Filene’s, rather than investing in the stores its held.

CNN —In a surprise to absolutely nobody, Taylor Swift was back in Kansas City on Sunday to support Travis Kelce at his football game. Wearing a red Kansas City Chiefs t-shirt and a black cheerleader-inspired miniskirt, Swift appeared on CBS’s broadcast at Arrowhead Stadium watching the team play the Los Angeles Chargers. She was seen embracing Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, after Kelce made a big play on the field. Sunday marked the fourth time the singer has attended one of Kelce’s football games in person since she first appeared on the Chiefs’ home turf in September. Despite the G-rated PDA and the four football games Swift has now attended in person to support the two-time Super Bowl champ, they have yet to publicly comment on their relationship status.
