Ruth E. Carter, the costume designer on the "Black Panther" films, from right here in Springfield, has made history to became the first Black woman to win two Oscars. She took home best costume design last night at the 95th Academy Awards for "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever," adding to her 2018 win for "Black Panther." It was a bittersweet win, as her mom, Mabel Carter, passed away in the last week. She said in her acceptance speech, "This is for my mother. She was 101. This film prepared me for this moment. Chadwick, please take care of mom."
Meghan Trainor released the music video for her song "Mother" this weekend, and it stars Kris Jenner. It makes sense, considering Kris is the mother to probably the most successful siblings in Hollywood - Kourtney, Kim, Khloe and Rob Kardashian, and Kendall and Kylie Jenner. Meghan, who is expecting her second child, also shows off her ultrasound in the video.
Shakira's breakup song just broke a ton of records. She performed "Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53" on "The Tonight Show" Friday night, talking to Jimmy Fallon about what motivated her to write the song (her ex, Gerard Piqué, allegedly cheating on her with a 23-year-old). Shakira now holds 14 Guinness World Records for the song, according to TMZ, which should hopefully soften the blow of a bad breakup.
Tom Schwartz, who is Tom Sandoval's business partner, has been quiet about the "Vanderpump Rules" cheating scandal involving Tom and Raquel Leviss.

Can you imagine Wednesday Addams currently being played by someone other than Jenna Ortega? Well, that almost happened! According to The Sunday Times, Jenny said, "I got the email, passed on it. The only reason I went back is that Tim [Burton, director and executive producer of Wednesday] is such a legend, and we just happened to get along very well. But even then I said, 'Ah, no — I think I'm OK,' a couple [more] times. I had done so much TV in my life, all I've ever wanted to do is film. I was scared that by signing on to another television show it could prevent me from doing other jobs I really wanted and cared about."
"Scream VI" opened at number one this past weekend with $43.5 million. It was the best opening ever for the "Scream" franchise. According to Page Six, "Scream" writer Kevin Williamson is hoping Neve Campbell will make a return to the film series. He said, "You know, the door is wide open and if she ever wants to come play with us again." Neve announced last year she wouldn't be returning for "Scream VI" after receiving an offer that she said "did not equate to the value I have brought to the franchise."
Even though a previous source had said that things "fizzled" out between Gigi Hadid and Leonardo DiCaprio, the two were seen together Friday night at a pre-Oscars party, People reports. An insider said, "Leo and Gigi were tucked away in a tented area trying to stay low key. There was no PDA, but they were together nearly the entire night and barely moved from their spot." Another source also added, "The two were in a group of over a dozen people in the VIP section who were hanging out."
David Blaine hurt himself during one of his shows this weekend in Vegas, TMZ reports. He jumped from 9-stories high into a foam pit and dislocated his shoulder. His crew tried to work on it, but then they ended up having to ask if there were any doctors in the crowd, which thankfully, there were. They took to working on him on stage and were able to pop the shoulder back in place, and the show continued on. Sometimes it takes more than magic – it takes an MD.
