White House Correspondents' Association dinner, Netflix Hacked & Blackmailed, Kelly Ripa NEW Co-Host, Val Kilmer Cancer, Harry Styles World Tour

The annual White House Correspondents’ Association dinner was held on Saturday without the attendance of the President for the first time in 36 years. Nevertheless, headlining comedian Hasan Minhaj persisted, and roasted President Donald Trump anyway. “I would say it is an honor to do this, but that would be an alternative fact. It is not. No one wanted to do this so of course it falls in the hands of an immigrant. That’s how it always goes down,” Minhaj cracked during his opening monologue. Noting Trump’s absence, the Muslim Daily Show correspondent added, “Historically, the president usually performs at the correspondents’ dinner, but I think I speak for all of us when I say he’s done far too much bombing this month.”

A hacker posted episodes from the upcoming season of Orange Is the New Black on Saturday, after Netflix failed to give in to the hacker’s demand for ransom. According to MarketWatch, the hacker (known as thedarkoverlord) wrote on Saturday, “It didn’t have to be this way, Netflix. You’re going to lose a lot more money in all of this than what our modest offer was.” On Friday, Netflix said it was aware of the situation and the Associated Press reported that the FBI was investigating. The hacker posted the completed ten (of 13 total) episodes on The Pirate’s Bay. Netflix had previously planned to release the new season on June 9.

Kelly Ripa has kept fans wondering who would become her new Live! cohost for almost a year, but now the wait is finally over. Ripa took to Twitter on Sunday to post a teaser video about the big reveal. In the video, she sips from a mug with a big question mark on it and says, “Tune in tomorrow. Trust me!” The video is captioned, “We’re going to need a bigger mug #TuneInToLive #BigAnnouncement #LiveKellyCohost.” Since former cohost Michael Strahan’s surprise departure in April 2016, Ripa has had numerous guest hosts, including Anderson Cooper, Andy Cohen, Jerry O’Connell, Rob Lowe, Seth Meyers, and husband Mark Consuelos.

Val Kilmer has finally confirmed rumors that he was battling cancer. According to Variety, Kilmer made the admission (sort of) in a recent Reddit AMA. When a fan asked the actor about Michael Douglas’s claims that Kilmer had terminal cancer last fall, he responded, “He was probably trying to help me cause press probably asked where I was these days, and I did have a healing of cancer. But my tongue is still swollen altho [sic] healing all the time. Because I don’t sound my normal self yet people think I may still be under the weather.” It remains unclear, however, what Kilmer meant by “healing of cancer.”

This not a drill! One Directioner-turned-solo artist Harry Styles announced on Friday that he’s embarking on a 2017 world tour kicking off on September 19 in the U.S. The trek will hit such major American and Canadian cities as San Francisco, L.A., Nashville, Chicago, New York, Boston, Toronto, and Philadelphia before hopping the pond on October 25 for a European leg that begins with a show in Paris. The tour is currently scheduled to run through December with a two-night stand in Tokyo. All tickets (excluding Japan) go on sale May 5. Billboard notes that the tour is bypassing stadiums and arenas, instead offering fans a more intimate environment in theaters worldwide. Styles premiered his debut solo single “Sign of the Times” earlier this month; his self-titled debut album drops May 12.
