Michael Strahan on becoming a grandfather 

Michael Strahan does love being a grandparent, but doesn’t want to be called “grandpa”.

The Good Morning America co-anchor, who became a first-time grandfather on September 22 when his eldest daughter Tanita Strahan gave birth to baby boy Onyx, explained why he does not want to use the customary name as he starts life in the new family role.

“It’s the most amazing feeling ‘cause I don’t feel old enough,” the 52-year-old told Jimmy Fallon during a conversation on The Tonight Show Sept. 23. “Everyone’s like, ‘What is he gonna call you?’ I don’t know. I almost want to do a survey.”

When the late-night anchor suggested he can be called “Papa,” but Strahan preferred “Gap-pa,” a reference to his famous gapped teeth.

Despite being indecisive of what he will prefer to be addressed, being a grandfather is something that makes him “happy”.

“I’m so happy for my daughter Tanita and Calenta [Mincey], her boyfriend,” the former NFL star expressed, calling baby Onyx a “great addition to the family.”

Michael, who shares Tanita, 32, and son Michael Strahan Jr., 31, with ex-wife Wanda Hutchins, as well as 19-year-old twins Isabella and Sophia Strahan with ex-wife Jean Muggli, announced the new born’s arrival on Fox NFL Sunday on September 22.

“It’s really special because I know you guys have gone through this,” he told his co-hosts, who are all grandfathers. “Now I’m just happy to be able to join you in that club.”

Courteney Cox and David Arquette were married from 1999 to 2013

Courteney Cox isn’t ready to let go of her ex-husband David Arquette’s Dewey Riley just yet.

In a recent interview with Variety, the Friends alum, 60, expressed her hope for David Arquette’s beloved Scream character to make a return, despite his tragic death in Scream 5 (2022).

“I understand the reasons they did it, but whoa! Talk about a missed character,” Cox said during a charity event in Malibu on Sept. 21.

She emphasised, “Dewey is so loved by Scream fans. They have to figure it out.”

Though Scream 7 is confirmed following the massive success of Scream VI earlier this year, Arquette downplayed any chances of Dewey’s return. When asked about reprising his role in a possible flashback, Arquette said on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, “I don’t think so… I haven’t gotten any calls or anything.”

Cox, who hasn’t yet officially signed on for Scream 7, did reveal that the script is constantly being updated, though she remains in the loop. She’s also thrilled that Scream creator Kevin Williamson will direct the upcoming film, saying, “You can’t get better than that choice…”

Whoopi Goldberg supports Taylor Swift after Travis Kelce’s fans slammed her

Whoopi Goldberg has recently spoken in favour of Taylor Swift after Travis Kelce’s fans blamed the singer for her boyfriend’s “sluggish start”.

Earlier, Travis reportedly appeared miserable on the sideline in a clip which went viral on September 22 as the songstress was not seen at the game for the first time.

Some football fans were quick to slam Taylor for “taking his mind off the game”.

Whoopi defended the singer and said on her The View show, “Grow up, y’all! Grow up! Stop putting this on her. Your team is fine, your team is doing well. Shut up!”

The Sister Act star continued, “It’s insane. Listen, this is a guy whose doing movies now, he’s doing television commercials, he’s doing all kinds of stuff.”

“He might have been a little busy, and maybe he’s not 12 anymore, okay? He’s still a viable player,’” stated the show’s host.

Whoopi believed that it was Donald Trump supporters who lashes out at the singer.

“I am blaming MAGA. I think it’s them because they’re mad, she is not supporting you-know-who. They’re putting all of this on her!” she noted.

Another co-host Sunny Hostin agreed with Whoopi and said, “I love your point, though. It’s probably the crazy MAGA people that are upset about this.”

Whoopi however pointed out, “Yeah, because why else would this suddenly be an issue?”

“And she’s also busy! Sorry y’all, she’s not thinking about him!” claimed the Ghost actress.

Savannah Chrisley on delayed motherhood 

Savannah Chrisley seems like wanting children at the perfect time in her life, and has frozen her eggs to wait for it.

“In the past few months, I spoke about how I was going to see a doctor about freezing my eggs. I went to that first appointment and, wow. What a journey that was,” the Chrisley Knows Best star began on the Tuesday, Sept. 24 episode of her podcast Unlocked with Savannah Chrisley.

The 27-year-old reflected on the experience of receiving an ultrasound and going through endometriosis.

“It’s also very tough as a woman. I am 27 years old, I always had this dream. If you’ve grown up in the South, you know. You have kids young, you get married young,” she explained. “It’s just a thing that has been.”

The reality star, who is right now looking after her minor siblings, Grayson, now 18, and Chloe, 11, also wants her parents Julie and Todd Chrisley, who are currently serving prison sentences for bank fraud and tax evasion, to be a part of the journey.

“Obviously with my parents’ situation, I want my parents to be a part of that journey. I also don’t want to feel rushed to have a kid because, let’s face it, it’s 2024,” Chrisley said of one of the reasons behind her wait on motherhood.

“And I know there are a lot of things that I want to accomplish in my life. And I don’t want to have to feel the pressures of, ‘I have to have a kid right now. There’s this ticking time bomb.’ That works for some people and that’s totally fine,” she later added. “But for me, there are some things I wanna do in Washington.”
