Millie Bobby Brown almost quit acting before making it big.
On Friday night’s episode of The Tonight Show, the Stranger Things star said she  became “very disheartened” by the acting industry after she lost a role on Game of Thrones. Millie said she “really wanted” the part on the HBO series when she auditioned.
“I got a no for that and then that’s when I was like, ‘Oh, this is really difficult,'” she told Jimmy Fallon.
She nearly quit her acting career but decided to have her “last kind of go” at a “Netflix show called Montauk,” which later became Stranger Things.
Millie said, “I auditioned and two months later they got back to us and said, ‘Hey we’d love to Skype with you’ and I Skyped with them, and the rest is history.”
She’s currently starring in the Netflix film Enola Holmes.
The James Bond film No Time to Die has been delayed again.
Producers said on Friday that the 25th installment in the franchise will now open on April 2nd, 2021.
No Time to Die was originally set to debut in April 2020 but was postponed to November. It was one of the first movies to be delayed because of the pandemic.
A day after the announcement, Regal Cinemas said they are “considering” temporarily closing all of its theaters in the U.S. and the U.K. With No Time to Die moving to next year, that leaves very few big releases set to open in the remaining months of 2020.
Actor Rick Moranis was the victim of a vicious and random attack on a New York City street on Thursday and police are searching for a suspect.
The 67-year-old actor, who starred in movies like Ghostbusters, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, and Spaceballs, was walking in Manhattan’s Upper West Side when a man approached him and punched him in the head, knocking him to the ground. The attack was caught on surveillance video and it shows the assailant calmly walking away after throwing the punch.
Moranis went to the hospital complaining of injuries to his head, back and hip. Police are asking for the public’s help in identifying the attacker. (WABC-TV)

TODAY IS: World Teacher Day
Are you close friends with any of your exes? Actress/model Elizabeth Hurley revealed in a recent interview with People that while their 13-year relationship ended in 2000, she’s still close friends with Hugh Grant. She even talks to him regularly and explained in the interview, “I still go to him for advice on scripts, even though he’s very happily married with five children and I’m very happy in my own life. There’s still certain bits we crossover with very well.” And when it comes to advice about her professional work she said “he’s still my go-to person.” Hugh describes their relationship now as “like brother and sister.”
Women are calling for the word miscarriage to be banned … Last week, Chrissy Teigen and John Legend shared the tragic news about Baby Jack. Teigen, in her deepest agony, chose to share with the world her pain and grief after losing their son, and it started a dialogue not only normalizing the silent grief many women are mistakenly ashamed to share, but it called into question the word miscarriage and the stigma it creates — somehow blaming the mother for the loss. Women took to Twitter to share their stories and call for an end of the use of the word miscarriage — preferring pregnancy loss, instead. (Glamour)
What would you do for one day of no stress? A new survey found that one-third of respondents would spend over $500 if it meant they could have a day of zero stress. 3 in 5 of those surveyed said they feel “constantly on edge,” 20% said they feel “drained” most days, and 13% say they are in a constant state of exhaustion. (SWNS)
A new survey by Joybird Home Furnishings reveals that 60% of people would dump their partner if they did not like their pet. Other findings:

– 80% of people have thrown at least one birthday party for their pet
– 62% of people have created a social media account for their pet

Shawn Mendes hasn’t seen Camila Cabello in weeks, but she sure is on his mind — and in the grooves of his new Wonder album.
The Canadian cutie tells Sirius XM that he’s still very much into Camila, who served as a huge inspiration for his new music. Shawn says, “She’s doing amazing. I haven’t seen her actually in like a month and two weeks, not that I’m counting… She’s back really soon and I think it’s interesting ’cause when your girlfriend is an insanely talented, real musician who writes her own music, it’s scary to write an album around her.”
He adds that Camila was as encouraging as she was scary. “[She’d say] ‘Go, keep going, keep going.’ And she would do this thing like once a month, ‘Hey, just a reminder, this concept you’re on is incredible. It’s going to make people feel something really special. Don’t stop. Don’t stop. Don’t stop.’ And it was this force of energy that I think was really helpful.”
Wonder is set for release on December 4th.
British television executives performed a tricky operation this past week — by removing a carrot from the top off Ed Sheeran‘s head.
The veggie surgery was actually performed on a puppet version of Ed, which was to appear on a new season of Spitting Image. After seeing the lookalike Sheeran, execs thought the carrot would be offensive to Ed’s fellow gingers, so they took it out and replaced it with turnip leaves.
A source at ITV tells the Sun, “The puppeteers didn’t seem too happy about the changes.  But it’s a fine line when you’re making comedy. It’s one thing poking fun at the rich and powerful but it’s another insulting some viewers.”.
Spitting Image is available stateside on the BritBox streaming service.

This morning, the internet is abuzz with the major news that President Trump and first lady Melania have tested positive for COVID-19 after the President’s close advisor Hope Hicks tested positive earlier Thursday. She recently traveled with him to Ohio and Minnesota. Trump Tweeted; “Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19. We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER!”
As if October hasn’t been scary enough already, seems mother nature is bringing us her own Halloween gift…ABC says a Blue Moon is going to occur on Halloween. The last time a full moon was seen on Halloween was in 2001.
Before you take the next online delivery package you get inside your house, you might want to sanitize it first. TMZ says over 19,000 Amazon workers have contracted the coronavirus since the pandemic started. Amazon and Whole Foods employ 1.37 million people.
Christmas Creep … Have you noticed that “Christmas Creep” – when stores start introducing Christmas items – has started much earlier this year? We usually manage to get through Halloween before we are bombarded with all the sights and sounds of the season, but like everything else, that has all changed because of COVID. With the world of retail looking different than it has in prior years, both brick-and-mortar and online outlets are feeling the need to reach consumers sooner in case of supply chain issues or shipping delays. (WJAR-TV)
Speaking of the holidays … it appears we have officially jumped the pumpkin spice shark … or, turkey.

Crocs, those hideous rubber clogs I you used to wear with cargo shorts, have become hip again. And now it appears Justin Beiber is jumping into the game to create his own model of the shoes after several other rappers recently released their own.
On Thursday he hopped on Instagram to promote his Drew House fashion line and posted a photo with the teasing caption, “soon.” The photo shows a pair of yellow Crocs floating in a swimming pool.
Crocs would seem to go well with the other gear sold by Justin’s Drew House, which includes slippers, baggy T-shrts and sweats, socks, stickers and plush toys. (Billboard)
Harry Styles tells the BBC that he’s enjoying quarantining with his friends. “I’m lucky I’m with friends in our little safe self-isolation pod. It’s a very strange time but we’re just being careful, listening to music, playing games, doing some face masks — you know, the classic quarantine stuff.”
Rihanna tells Entertainment Tonight that she is keeping herself occupied during the pandemic. ”It could be cooking, it could be walking, it could be biking. It’s all of these little tiny things that you just do for fun that in the moment they just make you feel great. I don’t have a license, so I can’t really drive, but driving is also one of those things that is therapeutic.”

On Wednesday night in an Instagram post, Chrissy Teigen announced she had suffered a miscarriage.
After experiencing bleeding during the final month of her pregnancy, the 34-year-old checked into a Los Angeles hospital for blood transfusions. She and husband John Legend have two other children and had already picked the name Jack for the boy she was expecting.
Along with a heart-breaking black-and-white photo of herself crying sitting on a hospital bed, Chrissy wrote on Instagram, (quote) “We are shocked and in the kind of deep pain you only hear about, the kind of pain we’ve never felt before. We were never able to stop the bleeding and give our baby the fluids he needed, despite bags and bags of blood transfusions. It just wasn’t enough.”
She continued, “We never decide on our babies’ names until the last possible moment after they’re born, just before we leave the hospital. But we, for some reason, had started to call this little guy in my belly Jack,”
“So he will always be Jack to us. Jack worked so hard to be a part of our little family, and he will be, forever,” she added. “To our Jack – I’m so sorry that the first few moments of your life were met with so many complications, that we couldn’t give you the home you needed to survive. We will always love you.”
Paris Hilton recently revealed that she was abused at a boarding school. Now the heiress is trying to shut it down.
Paris appears in a video on her YouTube channel calling for the Provo Canyon School — which she attended in 1999 — to be closed. She says, “I was abused at Provo Canyon School,” and adds that she plans to “put all my effort into reforming the industry.”
The school is described as an “intensive, psychiatric youth residential treatment center.”
In her documentary This Is Paris, the heiress says her time at the school was “a living hell,” where she was forced to take prescription pills, placed in solitary confinement and beaten.
On their website, the Provo Canyon School points out it was sold after Paris attended and that they “therefore cannot comment on the operations or patient experience prior to that time.”
It’s a familiar story, but one that won’t seem to go away. Another royal has criticized Meghan Markle. This time it’s coming from 99-year-old Prince Philip, who is getting up in years, but isn’t old enough to keep his bad feelings to himself.
According to a royal expert, Philip is “very, very disappointed” by Meghan’s failure to “support the monarchy” and her husband.
Way back in 1952, Philip gave up his career in the navy when the Queen took the throne. According to royal expert Ingrid Seward, he’s “irritated” that Meghan hasn’t done the same. (Daily Mail)

Nicknames are great when they organically happen among people you know, but when you are introduced by your full name, for example, Jessica or James, and someone decides to start calling you Jess or Jim, it can get irritating. That’s exactly what happened to star quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes — only it was his mom who took offense for him!
Randi Mahomes was watching the game Monday night and announcer Louis Riddick kept calling him Pat. Mamma Randi got fed up with the shortening of her son’s name, she took to Twitter to announce, “If this announcer doesn’t stop calling my son Pat … ugh I may scream.” She wasn’t really serious because she added an LOL to the post, but it still got the attention of ESPN, and by the 4th quarter of the game, Louis Riddick had apologized to both Randi and Patrick stating, “Guilty, guilty, guilty. I apologize, Patrick.” (Newser)

Shawn Mendes is ready to deck your halls with something very special — a new album set to drop just before Christmas.
The Canadian superstar has set a December 4th release for Wonder, which he wrote and recorded during the pandemic lockdown. He wrote a note to fans saying, “It really feels like a piece of me has been written down on paper and recorded into song. I tried to be as real and as honest as I’ve ever been. It’s a world and a journey and a dream and an album I’ve been wanting to make for a really long time. Thank you for being by my side for so many years. I love you all so much.”Shawn shared a trailer teasing the album along with that note, and will drop the title track as a single on Friday.
Demi Lovato has turned the negative of her broken engagement into a positive for fans — by quickly writing and releasing a raw new song about the split.
Demi dropped the emotional ballad “Still Have Me” via social media on Wednesday, and the lyrics make it clear that she’s ready to move on. She sings, “It hurts to breathe / I don’t have much but at least I still have me / And that’s all I need.”
Estranged fiance Max Ehrlich has been using his social media to beg Demi to take him back, but hasn’t had much luck so far.
Christina Aguilera knows she’s beautiful… No matter what “they” say — and she’s opening up to her fans about her journey to self-love.
In a new interview, she says that she’s learned to overcome the anxiety she used to feel when people criticized her looks. X-Tina told Italy magazine L’Officiel [pr: Loh Fish-EE-ell], “I have often clashed with my anxieties and with being hyper-critical towards myself. [I’m] not always pretty, far from perfect, but pure. I’m not going on a diet, so get over it.”
And she offers some advice for those who might be having trouble accepting themselves in that same way, saying, “Swim in your lane. If you waste time looking over your shoulder to see what others are doing, you lose sight of it, is the best advice I’ve ever been given.”

The death of Kobe Bryant compelled California to create a law against first responders photographing the deceased at a crime scene.
This month, Kobe’s widow Vanessa Bryant sued the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. The lawsuit alleges “no fewer than eight sheriff’s deputies were at the scene snapping cell-phone photos of the dead children, parents, and coaches.” Two Los Angeles firefighters were also accused of showing dead Kobe pictures to drinking buddies.
Governor Gavin Newsom signed “The Kobe Bryant Act of 2020,” which makes such actions punishable by a $1,000 fine. Only authorized people for “official law enforcement purpose” may snap pictures at the scene of a crime. (People)
Hugh Jackman has been hounded by rumors about his sexuality for years. Now, his wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, has addressed the speculation.
Deborra-Lee, who’s been married to Hugh for 24 years, adds, “It’s just wrong. It’s like someone saying to Elton John, ‘He’s straight.’ I’m sure he’d be [mad].”
She also talks about people saying she’s “lucky” to be married to the star. Deborra-Lee says, “People don’t realize, it’s actually rude to say that. ‘Lucky’ because he’s a stud-muffin, you know, but that’s showbiz and Hollywood and the brand of Hugh Jackman.”
Marie Osmond was fired from The Talk after co-hosts Sharon Osbourne and Sheryl Underwood threatened to quit unless she was gone, Page Six reports.
When Marie exited the show earlier this month, she claimed it was because she wanted to spend more time with family and to “pursue other projects.”
But an insider tells Page Six, “Marie did not leave of her own accord, although she was encouraged to spin her departure that way.” The source alleges that Sharon and Sheryl tried to force Marie to quit, but when she refused, they went to CBS execs with an ultimatum. Meanwhile, co-host Carrie Ann Inaba “pleaded with execs for Marie to stay but she wasn’t successful changing their minds.”
A different CBS insider insisted there was no meeting with execs and that Sharon and Sheryl never issued an ultimatum.

In Covid-19 news, according to a recent Stanford University study, the chances of achieving herd immunity to stabilize the spread of coronavirus is slim — considering less than 10 percent of Americans were found, in July, to have antibodies that fight against it. So, at this point, a vaccine is likely going to be the only solution.
An unsurprising new study has found that people have been drinking a lot more – and a lot more frequently — since the start of COVID-19. According to a survey by the RAND Corp., heavy drinking among women — four or more drinks within a couple of hours — has increased by a whopping 41%. And, overall, adults over the age of 30 have increased the frequency of their drinking by 14% compared to the same time last year. (CBS Local Los Angeles)

In July, Wesley Barnes stayed at the Sea View Resort on Koh Chang Island and left a one-star review on Trip Advisor, noting, among other things, an “unfriendly staff” and “extremely rude and impolite” restaurant manager. He’s now facing two years in prison because the resort owner filed a defamation complaint against him — accusing him of causing “damage to the reputation of the hotel” and claiming Barnes had left similar reviews on a number of platforms. Wesley has been released on bail. (Insider)

Kelly Clarkson‘s impending divorce just took another ugly turn — because her father-in-law says she owes him over a million bucks in unpaid management fees.
Narvel Blackstock, whose son Brandon married Kel back in 2013, has managed her career for over a decade. In the suit, filed this week, his firm says she’s fallen behind on payments for her work on her talk show and The Voice. The suit states that Clarkson has paid the firm $1.9 million this year, but owes another $1.4 million.
According to Variety, the two sides never had a written deal in place, just a verbal agreement for Kelly to pay 15 percent of her earnings, which she’d done since 2003.
Mariah Carey remains bitter about how she was treated by her producer and first husband Tommy Mottola.
While calling the music mogul “controlling and jealous” in the just-published The Meaning of Mariah Carey, Mimi dubs the suburban New York home they shared as “Sing Sing” (after the nearby penitentiary). She says the place was “fully staffed with armed guards,” whose job wasn’t to protect but monitor her.
In particular, she recalls a 1996 incident where, after a recording session in her home studio with producer rapper DaBrat, they drove off to a nearby Burger King. Mimi claims that Mottola went “berserk” and called out an armed search party.
Carey and Mottola separated a year later. In his 2013 memoir, he admitted being “obsessive” but alleges she described their marriage in “harsh” and “untrue” terms. She does acknowledge that he made her a star. (BBC)

Saturday Night Live kicks off its 46th season this weekend with a live audience — but if you want to go you’ll have to jump through a few hoops.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, “Tickets to the show’s dress rehearsal and live show come with a long-list of health stipulations.” This includes an on-site COVID test and temperature checks.
Despite the requirements, the October 3rd premiere is sold out and the ratings on TV are likely to be huge, considering the “SNL At Home” episodes that aired back in March and April were a smash with viewers.
Congratulations to Meghan McCain. On Monday night, The View co-host delivered a baby girl. Her name is Liberty Sage McCain Domenech.
Meghan’s rep said both are “happy and healthy.” She announced on her Instagram Story “It’s a girl.”
Liberty arrived one week early. Meghan joked at Instagram only 10 days ago, (quote) “Two and a half weeks until my due date. Trying to keep myself looking as stylish as humanly possible while feeling like Shamu.” (People)
If you’ve got some extra cash lying around, Pierce Brosnan is selling his Malibu compound for a whopping $100 million. The oceanfront residence sits on an acre with two homes that combine for five bedrooms and 14 bathrooms, according to the L.A. Times.
Chrissy Teigen is in the hospital.
She’s suffered some bleeding issues during her third pregnancy, but assures fans she’ll be OK. She says, “In the simplest of terms, my placenta is really, really weak”
She adds that she’s about halfway to term and that aside from the bleeding, she actually feels “really good.” (USA Today)

The Best of Bond…James Bond is set to drop on November 20th, five days before No Time to Die hits theaters. The two-CD set includes Billie Eilish‘s theme to the new flick as well as Adele’s Oscar-winning Skyfall theme and Sam Smith‘s Spectre tune “Writing’s on the Wall,” which also earned an Academy Award.

Someone Lewis Capaldi loved is officially out of his life.
The sad song specialist has reportedly split from girlfriend Catherine Halliday after seven months — which insiders blame on the U.K.’s strict COVID lockdown, which kept them apart for most of that time.
One of his pals tells Britain’s Sun, “Lewis has no hard feelings towards Catherine and they’re still amicable, but they decided it was best to call it a day. He’s at the beginning of his career, with a lot of opportunity at his ­fingertips, so it’s not the right time to settle down. He wishes Catherine all the best and has fond memories of their dates together.”
Lewis isn’t taking the split all that hard, it seems. Britain’s Sun magazine says he’s already swiping left and right on the high-end dating app Raya.

The singer said the little one’s “cute,” but he wouldn’t reveal the name. “That’s a good question, but there’s no way. He would kill me!”
Football legend Joe Montana and his wife were busy this weekend as they battled a woman who broke into their home and tried to kidnap their young grandchild.
TMZ reports that the intruder snatched the nine-year-old from a playpen. The football legend and his wife Jennifer confronted the woman, and tried asking the woman to give them back the child. Eventually, a “scuffle ensued” and Jennifer was able to pry the baby from the woman’s arms. The woman fled, but police officers who were nearby were able to grab the woman.
On Sunday, Joe tweeted, “Thank you to everyone who has reached out. Scary situation, but thankful that everybody is doing well. We appreciate respect for our privacy at this time.”
Dax Shepard reveals that he recently fell off the wagon after 16 years of sobriety.
On a new episode of his podcast Armchair Expert, the actor admitted he became addicted to painkillers and that for the last eight weeks he had been “on them all day,” after initially taking them for injuries.
Dax, who’s married to Kristen Bell, said he first began to use painkillers after getting into a motorcycle accident in 2012. Eight years later, he got into another accident, and he began buying painkillers to self-medicate.
This month, he said, he revealed his relapse to his wife and handed over his pills.
Dax said he’s been drug-free since September 21st. The couple are often visitors to the Southwest Michigan area where they reportedly have a home.
