Jamie-Lynn Sigler’s diet is not for the lactose intolerant. She spoke about her extreme milk cleanse with fellow former co-star of The Sopranos and onscreen sibling Robert Iler for the Not Today, Pal podcast. Sigler admitted there are going to be those questioning her methodology, considering many celebs have gone in the opposite direction when it comes to dairy in the past. “You’re going to think I’m crazy,” she said during the October 10 episode, which featured Mike Cannon. “It’s shocking because I too love food. I love sweets.” The 43-year-old revealed, “All I’ve been drinking for days is whole milk and that’s it.” Those who watched the show on YouTube saw Sigler holding the hydro flask and providing visual proof that she does indeed got milk. She took a drink and further went into the reasoning behind her Vitamin D-enriched fuel. “The idea behind it is parasites love dairy,...

On the latest episode of her MeSsy podcast, Sopranos star Jamie-Lynn Sigler opened up to listeners about her son’s recovery from a life-threatening autoimmune condition.

Sigler first revealed her son’s diagnosis on August 6 in an Instagram post in which she shared that what at first was suspected to be a “normal virus” had transitioned into “a nightmare.”

Her son, Beau, 11, was hospitalized for over a month as he suffered from a condition that causes inflammation in the brain and spinal cord, labeled acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (Adem).

Sigler said that since the near-death experience, her son’s “entire personality has changed,” and she described his new disposition as that of a “euphoric grateful high.”

She said, “We’ve been home for about a month since Beau’s gotten out of the hospital.

What really happened after the cut to black at the end of "The Sopranos"? It's a question that's plagued fans of the HBO mob drama for close to two decades now, but it sometimes seems like a question without an answer. The abrupt end to Tony Soprano's story, which came as he and his family sat down for a fairly normal-seeming dinner at Holston's, was for years presented by series creator David Chase as a sort of Schrodinger's Cat situation. Either Tony (James Gandolfini) is dead, or he's not, but we can't know since we weren't given that information. The end is what it is, and all we can do is make peace with it.

But the fact that so many "Sopranos" fans naturally took the cut to black to mean Tony could've been killed must mean something, right? This interpretation wasn't random, as there were details in the...

Seventeen years after it first aired on HBO, the series finale of "The Sopranos" still stuns. David Chase's polarizing but powerful decision to end one of the best TV shows of all time with a sudden, ambiguous cut to black remains bold and shocking, even as countless other small screen sagas have come and gone.

In the new HBO two-part documentary "Wise Guy: David Chase and the Sopranos," the series creator, writers, executive producers, and an occasional director gets surprisingly candid about both the show's inception and its ending. The rest of the cast and crew does too, with several involved in the finale recalling their initial disbelief at the show's withholding ending. "It was so sudden and strange," actor Michael Imperioli noted, while co-star Drea de Matteo said she called around to ask if her TV had gone out. According to star Lorraine Bracco, who played psychiatrist Dr.

New episodes of Yellowstone are right around the corner! Yellowstone season 5 part 2 premieres on Nov. 10, 2024. In fact, the new trailer for the series just dropped, too!

It’s been so long since the first half of Yellowstone season 5 ended on Jan. 1, 2023. Almost two years will have passed by the time all six episodes in season 5 part 2 air. And, unfortunately, you do have a fair bit of time until the show returns.

Luckily, we picked out seven shows like Yellowstone to watch while you wait for Yellowstone season 5 part 2! We didn’t include 1923 or 1883 for obvious reasons, but we highly recommend watching those, as well!

Eleven seasons and 250+ episodes is one hell of a run for a show, especially a sitcom. But that’s just where Married…with Children ended. So when you find out your show has been canceled after that long, you can probably proudly reflect on all that you’re leaving behind, knowing that future generations will continue to discover your work. But when you get the news from some randos, that might put a bit of a sting on it. That’s just what happened with Al Bundy himself, Ed O’Neill, discovering that Married…with Children wouldn’t be returning for a 12th season.

Appearing on the MeSsy podcast with Jamie Lynn-Sigler and Married…with Children co-star Christina Applegate, Ed O’Neill recalled being back in his hometown of Youngstown, Ohio and finding out that he would no longer be stocking the shelves at a Chicago shoe store. “A car pulled...

Christina Applegate’s Married… With Children papa, Ed O'Neill, was this week’s guest on the MeSsy with Christina Applegate and Jamie-Lynn Sigler podcast. “I don’t even know how to explain this person,” Applegate said as she introduced her fictional father. “He raised me, so if you don’t like anything about me, it’s his fault.”

To be fair, she added, “If you do like anything about me, also his fault.”

Applegate almost didn’t get to play Kelly Bundy to O’Neill’s Al Bundy. At 15, the young actress read the pilot script and concluded, “This is toilet humor. And I don’t do toilet humor. It’s totally gross.”

Married… with Children hired two other kid actors — David Faustino wasn’t an original Bundy either — and shot the pilot. “It didn’t work,” Applegate remembered. “They came to me and said, ‘Please, please just watch the pilot that we did.

Dead to Me actress Christina Applegate likes to give her friends this warning before going out with them. She does have Ms (multiple sclerosis) and it can be draining on her body. Yet, she still enjoys going out and seeing those she loves. At the same time, she does let them know one thing in advance but what is it? Keep reading for more details.

Christina Applegate Gives Friends Warning Before Going Out

For years, Christina Applegate was known as ditzy party girl Kelly Bundy on Married…With Children. She was also in the smash hits Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead and Anchorman. Her career has spanned decades to Dead to Me but sadly, she was diagnosed with Ms in 2021. This came after she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2008 and dealt with a double mastectomy. She was just thirty-six at the time so then, to learn...

Jamie-Lynn Sigler is celebrating her son finally being released from the hospital.

Earlier this month, the 43-year-old The Sopranos actress took to Instagram to reveal that her 10-year-old son Beau, whom she shares with husband Cutter Dykstra, had been diagnosed with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (Adem).

Adem is a “rare kind of inflammation that affects the brain and spinal cord, usually in children. It damages the coating that protects nerve fibers, called myelin,” according to WebMD. While symptoms may be severe, they can be treated.”

On Friday (August 16), Jamie-Lynn shared a video celebrating Beau being released from the hospital after more than a month stay.

Christina Applegate doesn’t shy away from getting real about living with multiple sclerosis.

In fact, the A-list star even started a podcast with Jamie-Lynn Sigler, who has suffered from Ms since her Soprano days.

This week, Christina opened up about how Below Deck and other reality TV shows have helped her deal with her disease.

It’s no secret that Christina is a huge Below Deck fan.

She not only got a video from Captain Lee Rosbach during an interview one time but has become close friends with Below Deck Sailing Yacht fan favorite Daisy Kelliher.

During an appearance on James Corden’s SiriusXM show This Life of Mine the other day, Christina got even more in-depth about her love of Below Deck and reality TV.

Christina Applegate reveals Below Deck helps her cope with Ms

On the show, James asked Christina if music helped her during the difficult moments since her Ms diagnosis.

Judd Apatow has always preferred to be a behind-the-scenes comedic creative.

The mega-producer and director said during Kevin Hart’s talk show “Hart to Heart,” airing July 17 on Peacock, that he always uplifted his more well-established comedian pals while starting out in Hollywood.

“When you’re young, you don’t feel like you’re the successful person. You’re just trying to break in,” Apatow said. “You believe in your friends, like, ‘Oh my gosh, my friend is the funniest person ever.’ […] So when I started, I lived with [Adam] Sandler for a while. Rob Schneider lived across the street. David Spade lived down the street. I would drive over the hill to Jim Carrey’s house to help him with stuff: jokes, sketches, for ‘In Living Color.’ And I was one person that was like, ‘I’ll help you write your jokes.'”

Apatow continued, “Everyone wants to be a star,...

Yellowstone is a neo-western thriller drama series created by Taylor Sheridan and John Linson. The Paramount Network series follows the story of the Dutton family, who own the largest ranch in America as they deal with internal and external problems to protect their property and keep the family together.

Comedies may not get the prestige and glory of dramas when it comes to awards, but the filmmakers behind them would probably agree that they're infinitely harder to make. The hope is that what's being captured on set will make audiences laugh months, sometimes even years, after production is wrapped. In order to determine whether something is funny, you're relying on a much smaller crew of people, from those who wrote the script to the crew behind the camera. If they're laughing, you're probably doing something right. But comedy is extremely subjective, and you never really know if you've got a true crowd-pleaser until those first test screening reactions start rolling in. 

But in the case of Will Ferrell and Jon Favreau's modern classic holiday comedy "Elf," which follows an orphan human raised by elves at the North Pole as he tries to reconnect with his estranged biological father...

We all know that San Diego comes from the German for whale’s vagina, but did you know that a lot of the banter between Ron Burgundy and co-anchor Veronica Corningstone was off the cuff? As much as TV anchors need their scripts to deliver the news, Will Ferrell and Christina Applegate were encouraged to venture far off of theirs when making 2004’s Anchorman.

Ferrell and Applegate recently got together on the latter and Jamie-Lynn Sigler’s joint podcast, MeSsy (via EW), to reflect on their time filming Anchorman, particularly how director Adam McKay would make frantic calls from behind the camera. As Ferrell put it, “A lot of that stuff, Christina and I going back and forth insulting each other, some of that was scripted, but so much of that was like, ‘Just keep going!’ Adam just wouldn’t yell cut, so you just had to keep going. At...

In yet another example of life imitating art, Will Ferrell irritated James Caan nearly as much as Buddy bugged his biological father Walter Hobbs in the Christmas comedy Elf. In fact, between scenes, Caan would tell Ferrell that he didn’t understand why everyone found the Saturday Night Live star so hilarious.

“He would tease me,” Ferrell confessed on Christina Applegate and Jamie-Lynn Sigler’s MeSsy podcast. “In between setups, he would be like, ‘I don’t get you. You’re not funny.’ And I’m like, ‘I know. I’m not Robin Williams.’ And he was like, ‘People ask me: ‘Is he funny?’’ And I’m like, ‘No, he’s not funny.’”

In the film, Caan wasn’t simply putting on as the irritated dad. “He's not acting,” Ferrell claimed. “He's truly annoyed with me. ‘This guy, shut the fuck up. Jesus!’ I literally drove him crazy in that movie,...

James Caan wasn’t exactly acting when he seemed annoyed with Will Ferrell while filming Christmas classic Elf.

In an interview with Christina Applegate and Jamie-Lynn Sigler’s Messy podcast, Ferrell revealed that his late co-star Caan didn’t “get” his humor at first. Instead, Ferrell drove Caan “crazy,” just like his character.

“James Caan, may he rest in peace, we had such a good time working on that movie,” Ferrell said. “He would tease me. Christina, you know: I like to do bits, but I’m not like ‘on’ all the time. In between set ups, [Caan] would be like, ‘I don’t get you. You’re not funny.’ And I’m like, ‘I know. I’m not Robin Williams.’ And he was like, ‘People ask me: “Is he funny?” And I’m like, “No, he’s not funny.”‘ It was all with love, but at the same time….”

That...

Will Ferrell has revealed why he doesn’t go by his birth name.

At the end of the latest episode of Christina Applegate and Jamie Lynn Sigler’s podcast MeSsy, Ferrell participated in a game where his Anchorman co-star analyzed his personality according to his picks for his top five favorite movies. After noticing that Ferrell picked ensemble films like The Godfather and Shawshank Redemption, “where somebody would have your back,” Applegate noted that the actor may have felt that growing up, he didn’t have “a place of belonging in a group.”

Ferrell confirmed there was “a lot of validity to that” and shared a story from his childhood. “You know what’s interesting about that [analysis]? This is like a minor thing—it’s not really even trauma. I remember being so embarrassed because my real name is John. John William Ferrell,” he said.

“The first day of school,...

Turns out, James Caan needed some convincing to find Will Ferrell’s “Elf” performance funny.

During Christina Applegate and Jamie-Lynn Sigler’s “Messy” podcast, Ferrell recalled how his late co-star Caan didn’t “get” his humor at first. Instead, Ferrell drove Caan “crazy” just like his character, who was Caan’s onscreen son, did. Legendary star Caan died in 2022.

“James Caan, may he rest in peace, we had such a good time working on that movie,” Ferrell said. “He would tease me. Christina, you know: I like to do bits but I’m not like ‘on’ all the time. In between set ups, [Caan] would be like, ‘I don’t get you. You’re not funny.’ And I’m like, ‘I know. I’m not Robin Williams.’ And he was like, ‘People ask me: “Is he funny?” And I’m like, “No, he’s not funny.”‘ It was all with love but at the same time…...

Though the name “Will Ferrell” carries immense prestige today, it conceals a dark secret that haunted Ferrell on every first day of school he ever attended.

Anyone familiar with Ferrell’s work would reasonably assume that it would be exceptionally hard to embarrass the Saturday Night Live legend. After all, we’ve seen Ferrell semi-to-fully-nude and screaming nonsensically in roughly $2.6 billion worth of various box-office successes, but we never once saw him blush. However, there is one way to humiliate the Anchorman and Elf star that’s stood the test of time since his very birth — call him by his real name.

Like many such stars, the moniker Ferrell sports for the posters and credits of his blockbuster comedies (sort of) isn’t the one that’s on his driver’s license, and the stage name of “Will Ferrell” wasn’t what teachers called him in elementary school.

On Christina Applegate...

Will Ferrell is dropping details on the original “Anchorman” ending that never set sail.

During co-star Christina Applegate’s “Messy” podcast, co-hosted by Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Ferrell reflected on the 20th anniversary of the beloved film.

“It was such a hard movie to get made in the first place and when it finally came around to when, ‘Oh wait, now Dreamworks wants to make it,’ it just felt like we were playing with the house’s money. So we were like, ‘Ok, gosh, they’re letting us make this crazy movie. Let’s just do all the comedy things we’ve wanted to try that other people have said, “No, you can’t do that in a comedy,”‘” Ferrell said. “We were just breaking the rules and having so much fun.”

Yet that fun went a little off the rails when it came to the planned third act. After poor test screenings,...

In the summer of 2021, Christina Applegate revealed that she had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Since then, she has been candid about her experience and raising awareness about the autoimmune disease, and on Tuesday, the actress shared some things she’d like to do “with the days I have left in life.”

In a post shared to X, Applegate wrote, “There are things I want to do with the days I have left in life,” adding, “I want to work with Shirley MacLaine And do shots with cher! And yes my days are so big.

Christina Applegate’s daughter joined the podcast the actress co-hosts this week to discuss her experiences as her famous mother began to experience and cope with the symptoms of multiple sclerosis, and the two shared details of the ups and downs of their home lives since her diagnosis.

Sadie Grace LeNoble, Applegate’s daughter with musician Martyn LeNoble, who, Applegate says, is the “reason I get up in the morning and my joy of my life,” was the “very special” guest on the June 25 episode of MeSsy, the podcast Applegate launched with her friend, Sopranos actress Jamie-Lynn Sigler, where the two openly and honestly discuss their lives coping with Ms.

Sadie, Applegate’s only child with husband Martyn LeNoble, revealed it was her idea to appear on the podcast. She spoke openly about the impact of her mother’s condition, which Applegate publicly disclosed in 2021.

“When she got diagnosed, it kind of just felt like… not like everything was over, but it was hard seeing my mom lose a lot of the abilities she used to have in my childhood,...

Christina Applegate is getting candid about her battle with multiple sclerosis, addressing recent comments she made about “not enjoying life” since her diagnosis with the autoimmune disease.

The 52-year-old actress said on the latest episode of her podcast, MeSsy, that she was recorded earlier this year expressing “some dark stuff” about her mindset.

“I don’t enjoy living. I don’t enjoy things anymore,” Applegate told her co-host Jamie-Lynn Sigler on a June 4 episode. “If someone can come over and lay in bed with me and talk, that’s enjoyable. But if someone’s like, ‘Let’s go for a walk’ or ‘get coffee,’ I don’t enjoy that process.”

Applegate was diagnosed with M.S. in August 2021 and has been open about her difficulties coping with the disease’s unpredictable symptoms, which can include fatigue, vision problems, impaired coordination and cognitive issues.

After Christina Applegate candidly discussed her struggles with depression caused by her multiple sclerosis diagnosis and stated “I don’t enjoy living,” the actress is addressing the concern that arose from it.

In an episode of her MeSsy podcast released earlier this month, Applegate told co-host Jamie-Lynn Sigler that, at the moment, she was “in a depression.” “A real, fuck-it-all depression — like, a real depression, where it’s kind of scaring me too a little bit because it feels really fatalistic, it feels really ‘end of,’” she continued. “I don’t mean that, but I’m trapped in this darkness right now that I haven’t felt in probably 20-something years. I don’t enjoy living. I don’t enjoy it. I don’t enjoy things anymore.”

But in a new podcast episode released Tuesday, the actress clarified her comments. At the start of the episode, Applegate told Sigler, “Ask me how I am,...

Christina Applegate’s comment earlier this month that she doesn’t enjoy living anymore following her Ms diagnosis caused concern among many for the Dead to Me star.

In the June 4 episode of her MeSsy podcast with fellow Ms survivor Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Applegate candidly told listeners, “A real, fuck-it-all depression — like, a real depression, where it’s kind of scaring me too a little bit because it feels really fatalistic, it feels really ‘end of,’” Applegate said on MeSsy. “I don’t mean that, but I’m trapped in this darkness right now that I haven’t felt in probably 20-something years.”

She continued, “I don’t enjoy living. I don’t enjoy it. I don’t enjoy things anymore.”

The Married with Children alum addressed the comments in her latest episode of MeSsy.

“I was talking about some dark stuff that I was thinking and feeling,” she said. “I...

The Sopranos alum Jamie-Lynn Sigler has revealed an amazing secret she found out about her on-screen dad, James Gandolfini, after he died in 2013 from a heart attack. Appearing on the latest episode of Justin Long‘s Life Is Short podcast, Sigler opened up about her career and her battle with multiple sclerosis. During the discussion, she said Gandolfini was the one person on The Sopranos set she told about her diagnosis. “He pulled me aside one day, and he said, ‘Jamie, what is going on?’” she explained, per People. “I just fell in a puddle in his arms. And I was just like, ‘I’m so scared, but I have Ms, and I don’t know how to tell anybody.’ And he’s like, ‘Your secret’s safe with me.’” Sigler played Meadow Soprano in the hit HBO series, the daughter of Gandolfini’s mob boss Tony Soprano.

Robert Iler, aka Tony Soprano’s son A.J., said it best Thursday night at Tribeca Festival’s 25th anniversary The Sopranos get-together: “Now my friends are going to shitty high school reunions and I’m going to cool stuff like this.”

Tribeca tonight premiered the Alex Gibney-directed HBO documentary Wise Guy: David Chase and the Sopranos, to a packed Beacon Theatre on the upper west side of Manhattan. What Star Wars means to a Star Wars fan, this documentary is a love letter and an ultimate prized watch for Sopranos fans.

Filled not just with old audition tapes and the backstory of Chase’s inspiration (it’s all about Momma), Wise Guy gives the warts and all: How HBO CEO Chris Albrecht held an intervention for James Gandolfini with the cast in the exec’s NYC apartment (who would skip work and battle his own demons); the actor tells the suit “Fire me!

Actress Christina Applegate has opened up about the profound impact her multiple sclerosis (Ms) diagnosis has had on her mental health.

Applegate, 52, best known for her role in the hit sitcom Married…with Children, first shared her diagnosis with the public in 2021 and has now provided a heartbreaking update on her continued struggle with the degenerative disease.

Speaking on her MeSsy podcast, Applegate expressed the depths of her current depression, a condition she hasn’t experienced in over two decades. “I’m in a depression right now, which I don’t think I’ve felt for years…Like a real, f—- it all depression where it’s kind of scaring me, too, a little bit because it feels really fatalistic. I’m trapped in, like, this darkness right now that I haven’t felt [in], like, I don’t even know how long, probably 20-something years.”

Tribeca Festival co-founder Jane Rosenthal doesn’t follow a North Star as she and her team sift through tens of thousands of submissions each year. But as they whittle down those applicants to the 100 or so films comprising the final lineup, themes tend to emerge.

“It’s not like we set out to say, ‘This is what we want to do.’ As an activist film festival, we always look for [political] films,” says Rosenthal, who created Tribeca Festival with Robert De Niro in the wake of 9/11. “This year, there’s a mental health narrative. I don’t know if that’s a post-covid thing.”

Tribeca, now in its 23rd year, will take place from June 5-16 and highlight films led by Kristen Stewart, Lily Gladstone and Jenna Ortega. “Diane von Furstenberg: Woman in Charge,” a look at the fashion icon and entrepreneur, will open the festival, with anticipated documentaries about Prince,...

Christina Applegate Opens Up About Eating Disorder. (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Christina Applegate, who was recently diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, opened up about her past struggles with eating disorders for the first time on the latest episode of her MeSsy podcast with Jamie-Lynn Sigler. Applegate told Sigler she developed an eating disorder when she was eight and struggled with it until her thirties.

The Dead To Me Star recalled she was derided for her weight when she was eight when a friend called her “fat.” The actress shared she had started to feel her issues with weight crop back up after she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2020, noting, “When you lived with anorexia as long as I did in my early life. It always plagues me, body dysmorphia and all of those things.”

Christina Applegate revealed she does not look in mirrors after she gained 45 pounds due to the illness.

On the latest episode of their podcast MeSsy, Christina Applegate and Jamie-Lynn Sigler reflected on their previous struggles with eating disorders.

Applegate recalled that her mother put her in Weight Watchers when she was 15. “She was always competitive,” said the actress about her mom, who had body image issues of her own. “If I got down to 110 [pounds]… she’d be like, ‘Oh! I’m so mad! How’d you do it? How’d you get down to 110?’ And the reason why was because I had an eating disorder.”

The Dead to Me alum said she would eat five almonds in a day and if she had six, she would cry and would refuse to leave her house. “That stuck with me for years and years and years,” she said.

Looking back at playing Kelly Bundy on Married…With Children, Applegate noted that it was her idea to wear the revealing...

Jamie-Lynn Sigler says she was told not to disclose her multiple sclerosis diagnosis on The Sopranos by the set physician.

While appearing on Sophia Bush’s podcast Work in Progress, the actress shared that she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at 20-years-old, a year after receiving a Lyme disease diagnosis.

Shortly after being told she had Ms, she had her cast physical and told the physician about her latest health update. “He’s like, ‘Uh yeah, I don’t think you should tell anybody about that and I’m not going to put this down [on your medical records],'” Sigler recalled.

“I just followed his advice because I also wasn’t that symptomatic at the time so it wasn’t something that I thought about, or that I had to think about all the time,” she explained. Sigler then confirmed she initially “told no one, absolutely no one” on the set about her Ms diagnosis.
