#LeonardoDiCaprio

o They were all at the LACMA Art+Film Gala over the weekend and you can see Sanchez standing between DiCaprio and Bezos, gazing up at the movie star and smiling.
o People are tweeting things like, “Find yourself someone who looks at you the way Jeff Bezos’ girlfriend looks at Leonardo DiCaprio,” and “I guess we won’t be seeing any of Leo’s movies on prime.”
o Jeff Bezos caught wind of the video trending and yesterday he posted a photo of himself posing on a sign that read, “Danger! Steep Cliff Fatal Drop” and he captioned it “Leo, come over here, I want to show you something…”
#EdSheeran
o His new album = is currently the #1 album in the country.
o But he already has a new album ready to go!
o He recently said in an interview that, despite the rumors and his trends on using math symbols, it will not be called “Minus.”
o As for when it comes out? He said, “…it depends how well ‘Equals’ goes to be honest. ‘Cause if Equals bombs then you know the next one will come quite quickly.”
o = was originally going to be the finale record but with the timing of things opening up in England, he felt that the single “Bad Habits” needed to be released in the summer so he switched them around.
#Wicked
o It was recently announced that Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo are set to star as Glinda and Elphaba in the film adaptation of “Wicked.”

o He has appeared in some film adaptations of hit Broadway musicals like “Cats” and “Into the Woods” and that is likely the reason why fans say they have had enough.
o “Wicked” fans have started a petition to keep him out of the movie, writing, “James Corden in no way shape or form should be in or near the production of Wicked the movie.”
o As of last night, the petition had over 50,000 signatures.
