Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn in The Suicide SquadScreenshot: YouTube The Suicide Squad’s big bad is Starro. We think. Whatever it is, it’s part of something called “Project Starfish,” and as John Cena’s Peacemaker points out, starfish is also a slang term for “butthole.” With that one line, Cena makes a pretty decent case for his upcoming HBO Max spinoff. Jai Courtney introduces the newest trailer for the James Gunn-directed sorta-kinda-sequel to the other Suicide Squad movie (which was sorta-kinda bad), in which he reprises his role as Captain Boomerang alongside Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn, Joel Kinnaman’s Rick Flag, and Viola Davis’ Amanda Waller. Gunn packed the rest of the ensemble with a new crew of unlikely heroes, including Idris Elba’s Bloodsport, who gets a bit more screen...

Damon Dash is taking the L -- at least for now -- in his attempt to auction off Jay-Z's "Reasonable Doubt" album as an NFT ... but he's not likely to give up just yet. A source close to the case tells us the court ruled in favor of Roc-A-Fella Tuesday by ruling Damon's prohibited from selling the NFT of Jay's debut studio album, and any planned auctions to do so must be halted. Of course, the ruling is only temporary, but we're told the federal judge said Jay and Roc-A-Fella's arguments were "deemed credible and correct." That being said, more filings are almost certain to come in the future from Dash's side. ...

O.J. Simpson. But she says that filming the sixth season of American Horror Story, titled Roanoke, left her “underwhelmed.” “I just don’t care abou...

Ms. Spears’s first tour under the conservatorship, The Circus Starring Britney Spears, was designed to be a dry one, with cast and crew forbidden from drinking alcohol — or even energy drinks — around Ms. Spears, according to three people who worked on it. During this period, a former nanny and housekeeper for Ms. Spears claimed Mr. Spears engaged in “verbal abuse, tirades, inappropriate behavior and alcoholic relapses,” according to a legal letter sent in 2010 that threatened a lawsuit. In 2014, Mr. Ingham told the court that Ms. Spears believed her father was drinking, according to a transcript of the closed hearing. Lawyers representing the conservatorship responded that Mr. Spears had voluntarily submitted to regularly scheduled alcohol tests and never failed. Mr. Spears’s lawyer said...

"Jeopardy!" viewers are upset with the show after it included a medical clue that many argue is incorrect and even offensive.  The clue had to do with a condition known as Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), a manageable condition that many in the U.S. and around the world suffer from. However, because so many people are familiar with POTS, many were quick to notice something didn't hold water on Monday's episode.  Guest host Savannah Guthrie read a clue from the Plain-Named Maladies category that read: "Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome is also known as Grinch Syndrome because this organ is too small." The correct answer to the prompt, according to "Jeopardy!," was "What is the heart."  ALEX TREBEK EARNS POSTHUMOUS DAYTIME EMMY NOMINATION FOR LAST SEASON HOSTIN...
