Image
At the start of 2025, Laverne Cox announced she would not be returning as host of E!’s red carpet coverage after three years in role, and now she is opening up more about that decision.

Family Feud fans love host Steve Harvey for his wild antics on the popular game show. Every once in a while, however, even the beloved host takes things a little too far. This happened in a clip from the show that has been making the rounds, and viewers had a lot to say about it.

Family Feud: Fans Love Steve Harvey For His Crazy Antics

While Steve Harvey does not get as raw or inappropriate on the Family Feud set as he would filming one of his uncensored comedy specials, Harvey does regularly push the limit, especially as the show has been criticized for taking a more raunchy turn.

Through it all, Steve Harvey has to make sure that things are balanced, for the most part. However, there are clearly times when even the host gets a little carried away, or he takes things too far. Overall, though, that is...

Steve Harvey is facing intense scrutiny for misconstruing a contestant’s survey response.

During an episode of Celebrity Family Feud, former E! anchor Giuliana Rancic appeared with her family to face off against The Band Perry.

Giuliana’s teammates were her husband, Bill Rancic, and her mom, Anna DePandi.

During the game, Steve Harvey approached Anna, an Italian immigrant with a thick Italian accent, to ask her one of the survey questions.

“A woman might say, ‘I broke up with my boyfriend after I found out he had’ what?” was the question on the cue card.

Anna’s answer was, “Spent a lot of money,” but Steve either didn’t hear her correctly or tried to make a joke of her dialect, repeating a different answer for the judges.

“Cuz he ate spaghetti on a Monday,” the Celebrity Family Feud host said, facing the survey board.

Law Roach Says Zendaya’s 2015 Oscars Dreadlocks Led to “Global Conversation” and the Birth of The Crown Act

Law Roach is reflecting on sparking change when Zendaya wore dreadlocks to the 2015 Academy Awards.

The celebrity stylist, who has also been a longtime client and close friend of the actress since she was a teen, recently opened up at the Teen Vogue Summit about the style decision for her Oscars appearance when the Challengers star was 18 years old. At the time, Fashion Police co-host Giuliana Rancic drew criticism for saying Zendaya looked like “she smells like patchouli oil or weed” that night.

Though Roach didn’t say Rancic’s name during the panel discussion, he said these “really awful comments” made by “this TV personality” actually led to important conversations.

“Fashion has the ability to make political statements, and I think that we should use fashion to express ourselves and what we agree with and what we disagree with, what’s going on in politics, because it’s our...

Melissa Rivers Reflects on Her Relationship With Mom Joan Rivers: ‘The Chemistry Was So Easy’
Joan Rivers in The Apprentice (2004)
It’s been almost nine years since comedy legend Joan Rivers died following complications during a minor throat procedure. On that day, her daughter Melissa Rivers not only lost her mother but also lost a business partner. They publicly shared their personal lives on the reality series “Joan Knows Best,” on the red carpet every awards season and as critics and producers on “Fashion Police.” If that sounds like the formula for a complicated relationship, you’re right.

“Anyone who says that mother-daughter relationships aren’t complicated is lying,” Melissa told TheWrap. “They can be amazing and you can be close and you can have wonderful relationships with mothers and daughters, but no matter what, they’re complicated.”

Although we got to see them standing on opposite sides of every red carpet during awards season with mic in hand interviewing celebrities who were dressed to the nines and asking “Who are you wearing?...

Oscar Brings Back The Glamour With An In-Person Red Carpet – Photo Gallery
Image
Another virtual ceremony, another missing red carpet? Not for the Oscars. Just as the Academy somewhat controversially brought the nominees to the show in real life, rather than attempting the fully virtual shows we’ve seen for Emmy, Golden Globe and SAG awards, the Oscars kicked off in style Sunday with a real red carpet. Usually the pinnacle red carpet show of the year, the Oscars tried its best to bring some pre-pandemic level glamour to tonight’s awards at Los Angeles’ Union Station.

Oscar-winner Halle Berry and Promising Young Woman producer Margot Robbie debuted new hairstyles for the occasion. Berry teased her short bob by posting a photo of a pile of hair on Instagram earlier in the evening.

Nominees Carey Mulligan — Best Actress, Promising Young Woman — and Daniel Kaluuya — Best Supporting Actor, Judas and the Black Messiah — put their own twists on classic looks. Mulligan was elegant in...
