Here’s your dose of showbiz news for the day…
Neil deGrasse Tyson has Titanic plot hole on his mind
Ever wondered what keeps scientist and StarTalk host Neil deGrasse Tyson up at night? Titanic plot holes, of course. We’ve all had many a sleepless night thinking about how Jack probably could’ve fit on that floating wooden door with Rose, meaning that he didn’t need to die… But whether or not he could fit, Neil thinks that’s besides the point.
He told the Huffington Post: “Whether or not he could’ve been successful, I would’ve tried more than once. You try once. ‘Oh, this is not gonna work. I will just freeze to death in the water.’ No, excuse me. No! The survival instinct is way stronger than that in everybody, especially in that character. He’s a survivor, right?”
Celebrities speak on out Harvey Weinstein
More celebrities have spoken out on the sexual harassment claims made against film producer Harvey Weinstein.
“The disgraceful news about Harvey Weinstein has appalled those of us whose work he championed, and those whose good and worthy causes he supported,” Meryl Streep said in a statement via her publicist, Leslee Dart, to the Huffington Post.
“The fact that these women are starting to speak out about the gross misconduct of one of our most important and well regarded film producers, is incredibly brave and has been deeply shocking to hear,” Kate Winslet told Variety.
However, Donna Karan came to Weinstein’s defence, telling the Daily Mail: “I also think, ‘How do we display ourselves? How do we present ourselves as women? What are we asking? Are we asking for it, by presenting all the sensuality and all the sexuality?'”
Is Kylie Jenner pregnant?
Rumours are flying left, right and centre that Kylie has a bun in the oven, and the lady in question isn’t exactly doing much to quash them. She posted a snap to Instagram today, wearing a very big shirt – the kind of shirt that could easily hide a bump. Many sources have confirmed the news, but nothing has come from Kylie yet. Fans are convinced she’s having a boy, after she mentioned choosing the colour blue on Snapchat. Obvs.
