I spent last week burning through The Great, Hulu’s new-ish series that has Elle Fanning playing a very fictionalized version of a young Catherine the Great. The first season is about Catherine (not yet the Great) preparing to overthrow her husband, the emperor, and take power, which is a pretty amazing conflict to center on.

Like much of his communication with followers and fans this week, West, 43, took to Twitter to announce the pop star's arrival. "DD & JB discussing the new spray foam wall prototypes on the YZY campus," West tweeted along with a photo of one of his team members and the "Sorry" singer. KIM KARDASHIAN BREAKS SILENCE ON KANYE WEST'S BIPOLAR DISORDER: 'HE IS BRILLIANT BUT COMPLICATED' The "campus" West is referring to appears to be one of his properties near Cody, Wyo. where West has big plans to build a facility for his sneaker brand.
