Kathy Bates’ weight loss may have made her “exquisitely” happy during the 2024 Emmys.

The 76-year-old Oscar winner got candid about her seven-year weight loss journey in an interview with People, and opened up on her feelings after being able to do something she would have wished for years.

After stepping out for the 2024 awards show last month in a purple Armani gown, the American actress shared the ecstatic experience she had while shopping for a dress with her friend for the evening.

“We were in tears because everything I came out in just looked exquisite,” she told the outlet in October.

She further reflected on the comfort she felt while posing for cameras at the event. “The pictures on the red carpet were so different from any pictures I’d ever had taken on a red carpet,” she noted.

“I just felt so relaxed and ready,” shared Bates. “I knew I felt great, and I looked great.”

Bates also revealed how she managed to lose 80 pounds, and that was through diet and lifestyle changes, and then another 20 were dropped by using the drug Ozempic.

“There’s been a lot of talk that I just was able to do this because of Ozempic,” she said. “But I have to impress upon people out there that this was hard work for me, especially during the pandemic. It’s very hard to say you’ve had enough.”

Hollywood lost a gem from its film and television industry.

John Lasell, an actor mostly famous for playing different characters on television, like in Perry Mason (1957), The Twilight Zone (1959) and Dark Shadows (1966), died in Los Angeles at the age of 95.

A message from the obituary confirmed the news, which listed the death date as Oct. 4.

John Lasell’s last on-screen appearance was in 1985, where he starred in the Emmy-nominated miniseries A Death in California, alongside Cheryl Ladd and Sam Elliott. Throughout his career, Lasell made multiple guest appearances in iconic shows such as Perry Mason (appearing in three episodes) and The Twilight Zone.

His most prominent role came in the gothic soap opera Dark Shadows, where he played Dr. Peter Guthrie, a vampire hunter, across 25 episodes.

In addition to his work on Dark Shadows, Lasell made notable appearances on popular TV series like Dallas, Falcon Crest, Lassie, Mannix, The Streets of San Francisco, The Mod Squad, Mission: Impossible (in 1972), and Gunsmoke.

He also appeared in two episodes of Wagon Train and four episodes of the Emmy-winning series The Fugitive. Though primarily recognized for his television roles, Lasell’s film credits include playing Helen Keller’s father in the 1970 production Helen Keller and Her Teacher.

Andrew Garfield and Dr. Kate Tomas haven’t been together for “months” now.

The self-declared “philosopher” announced the split in the comment section of a recent Instagram post on Saturday, after a fan asked about their relationship status.

“Are you still dating Andrew Garfield?” the fan inquired. “If so, tell him I’m a fan of him, please. Thank you.”

“We broke up months ago,” Tomas, 42, revealed. “But I’m sure he will be happy to know that he is loved.”

The 41-year-old The Amazing Spider-Man and Tomas’ romance started back in March, when the ex-couple was seen on an intimate double date with songstress Phoebe Bridgers and comedian Bo Burnham in Malibu, Calif.

Pictures obtained by Page Six at the time captured the couple in a passionate engagement at Zinqué restaurant, where they were seen holding hands and hugging each other.

At the time, a source reported to the Us Weekly that the relationship between the Hacksaw Ridge actor and the spiritual mentor was still in its early stages, adding that Garflied “appreciates the fact that Kate is very different from other women he’s dated.”

“He thinks she has a great sense of humour and she’s easy to talk to,” the insider added. Garfield has dated actresses Emma Stone, Rita Ora and model Alyssa Miller in the past

Ethan Slater seems to always be there for Ariana Grande.

Grande‘s boyfriend, although subtly, showed support for the music star over her Saturday Night Live hosting gig in the Saturday, October 12 episode.

The 32-year-old Broadway star took to his Instagram Stories to re-share footage from SNL‘s official account from Grande’s period on Sunday, October 13.

The 31-year-old songstress portrayed a Renaissance-era character trying to get the attention of the Prince (Andrew Dismukes). Maya Rudolph and Andy Samberg, show’s alums, appeared in cameos, playing the part of the pop star’s parents.

Slater also liked SNL‘s post about Grande’s skit.

The popstar did her second gig with Saturday Night Live as a host in this weekend’s episode, which featured a name from the music world, Stevie Nicks.

Prior to her March 2016 debut as the show’s host, Grande had two previous musical guest appearances in September 2014 and March of this year.

Slater and Grande met each other for the first time during the filming of the forthcoming two-part Wicked film adaptation and word of their romance came out in July 2023, the same month Grande’s separation from Dalton Gomez was confirmed.
