May we all enter this weekend with the energy of 85-year-old Martha Stewart. The Leo octogenarian, who just celebrated her birthday, is a nonchalant queen. When People asked if she thinks about her age, she said, “I really and truly don’t.” She didn’t want any birthday parties, but people are throwing them for her anyway. She’s never had plastic surgery. She goes horseback riding. She’s taking sexy pool selfies.

“I have good genes. My mom looked great at 95,” she said. “We eat well. We don’t drink very much. We don’t smoke. We eat healthy food. We exercise daily.” Oh, to be so unbothered.

Other celebrities currently thriving include musician Role Model and Dakota Johnson, who recently confirmed their relationship after she made a cameo in one of his songs. Perhaps this means that Dakota will land a prime Sally placement on Role Model’s next tour.

Also having a good week is Kit Connor, who will take home a big fat Marvel paycheck thanks to his casting in the upcoming X-Men movie. Connor will take over the role of Cyclops, joining Sadie Sink as Jean Grey and Samara Weaving as Emma Frost. With SO MANY X-Men to cast, we’ll likely see a whole rollout of under 30 A-listers landing the coveted mutant roles in the weeks to come. I know Zendaya is already in the MCU, but would it be so bad if we also cast her as Storm?

And speaking of Zendaya…

Update On My Close Personal Friends — Tom Holland is finally wearing a wedding ring

While Zendaya has been flashing her wedding band around since March, Tom Holland only just started wearing his post-Spider-Man: Brand New Day press tour. The pair were spotted in London yesterday, with Tom publicly rocking a gold ring for the first time. This came just days after Tomdaya hosted a secret wedding reception at a fancy hotel in the English countryside. Opting out of the now-customary Madison Square Garden 1,000-person wedding, Tom Holland and Zendaya threw their party at the Beaverbrook Hotel in Surrey, but we don’t know many details aside from the date and location. I’m totally fine with celebrities having private weddings, but I must insist that we get at least one photo of their dresses. It’s honestly cruel to keep us in the dark.

The Couch Report — Next Gen NYC takes BravoCon

If you haven’t been watching the second season of Next Gen NYC, now is your time to catch up. Bravo’s youngest cast is halfway through a season that has largely focused on a love triangle between a former Real Housewives of Atlanta star’s daughter, the heir to the Zaxby’s fortune, and a volunteer firefighter/motorcycle driver/actor. Still, there’s also been plenty of petty drama swirling around disastrous fashion lines, bowling alley IP, and, of course, a musk-scented all-purpose cleaner. Things are heating up again as the entire cast descended upon Las Vegas in Thursday’s episode for last year’s BravoCon. What happens in Vegas will most decidedly not stay in Vegas in the case of Next Gen NYC, and I CANNOT wait to see the fallout.

Be So For Real — Do we need a third season of Big Little Lies?

Did we need a second season of Big Little Lies? No. After a perfect first season of the show based on Liane Moriarty’s hit novel, the cast reunited for a far clunkier sophomore year. Now, HBO is reportedly eyeing 2028 for another return of the Monterey Bay-based mom thriller. If you don’t remember how Season 2 ended (I just had to look it up), Zoe Kravitz is about to confess to murdering Alexander Skarsgard in Season 1 by pushing him down that flight of stairs. So what is the plot of Season 3? Is a new murder committed? Will Meryl Streep and her veneers return to town? What wig will Nicole Kidman wear? So many questions. While I’m not particularly excited by the prospect of Season 3 and certainly don’t think it will be good, I will watch it nonetheless, so I guess HBO knows what they’re doing.

You can’t tell me that Al Pacino crawling around on that desk wearing a wig wouldn’t be funny.
