Ellen DeGeneres seems pretty affected by “all the hatred” the host received after being accused of creating a toxic work environment on her daily show and getting “cancelled”, which eventually sent her to “therapy”, as she in her last standup on Netflix.

“I was in therapy for a while trying to deal with all the hatred that was coming at me. It was not a common situation for a therapist to deal with,” DeGeneres said in the comedy special For Your Approval.

“At one point, my therapist said, ‘Ellen where do you get this idea that everyone hates you?’ And I said, ‘Well, New York Times, The Washington Post, Entertainment Weekly, Us Weekly, I think Elmo may have said something recently on an episode of Sesame Street.”

DeGeneres continued, “She said, ‘Well I think you just need to avoid looking at the news, just avoid media.’ I said, ‘I am. I’m not looking at anything.’ But I would always know when something was going on because I’d start getting texts from friends saying thinking of you or sending love.”

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…”

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.”

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.”
