General Hospital two-week spoilers for March 16th through the 27th. We’ve got Ava Jerome (Maura West) warning somebody and Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) completely stunned.

General Hospital Spoilers Monday, March 16th: Jordan’s Pregnancy Decision

Monday, March 16th, we got Stella Henry (Vernee Watson) asking Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) if she is considering terminating the pregnancy. So, this sounds like a confirmation, right? And I wonder if this is because she’s high-risk, if she doesn’t want any more kids, if the dad may not be Curtis.

Or if she doesn’t want to compete with Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr), if it’s all of the above. And also, did you guys notice at the manicure, the mani-pedi place on Friday, when did Portia’s baby bump go from zero to a lap full? They just skipped, you know, the whole second trimester.

Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) and Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) make a promise to each other on Monday. And Jason’s telling Sonny he’s on his way out of town with Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) and he’s going to eliminate that bastard. I’m assuming that is Cullum.

Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) goes over to Alexis Davis’ (Nancy Lee Grahn) place to see Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos). He’s got a whole basket of goodies for her. And Cody is teasing her that he’s the doctor there to check on the patient. And Molly says Cody’s sweet. And she knows he’s trying to help, but he’s making things harder.

And he goes ahead and makes it even harder and takes Dante Falconeri’s (Dominic Zamprogna) advice and tells Molly how he feels. He’s falling for her. But of course, she’s really worried about telling Cody that she can’t have kids because of the endometriosis.

GH Spoilers: Laura’s Fed Up

Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) goes over to see Laura Spencer (Genie Francis), and this may be about Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota). He’s a problem for both of them. And Laura tells somebody, presumably Tracy, that she cares less and less by the day. So politics might have lost their luster now that Sidwell basically owns her.

And Tracy’s also griping that she fell off her horse. Maybe she’s griping to Cody. Is she going to blame somebody? I don’t know. Portia is big mad likely because Jordan is pregnant and Portia may call Jordan out on her hypocrisy especially if she’s like oh you know Curtis doesn’t know.

Since you know Jordan ran to Curtis and blabbed that Portia was pregnant when Jordan suspected and didn’t even know. that was over what like an egg salad sandwich or some kind of salmon. It was something at the tea party. She didn’t even know it was true and went to tell him.

Meanwhile, Curtis is reassuring Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) on Monday, and he may be letting Trina know they’re going to be family, even though he and Portia are divorcing. Curtis is moving on with Jordan. There’s a new baby on the way. Lots happening. Still family.

General Hospital Spoilers Tuesday, March 17th: Portia May Tell Curtis About Jordan’s Pregnancy

Tuesday, March 17th, Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) gets questioned by Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna). I don’t think he’s going to get very far with Cullum because Brennan is not his boss. Meanwhile, Carly Corinthos Spencer (Laura Wright) goes and warns Sonny. And this may be about Sidwell working with Cullum.

I’m curious to see if Jason happens to tell Sonny about Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart). I kind of don’t think he will. And I kind of don’t think Carly will either. Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) and Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst) have a chat about their future.

They’re out to dinner. Looks like it’s a date. She’s looking a little unsure. I think Ric’s going to want more than she wants to give. Plus, Elizabeth is getting closer to Dante lately. Also, Portia makes a choice about something on Tuesday.

And I wonder if she’s going to go spill to Curtis that Jordan is pregnant. I mean, you know, she spilled plenty of Portia’s secrets, so I think it’d be karma if it went that way. Also, this week, Jordan has a talk with Curtis there at her place, and she’s looking super stressed out.

GH Spoilers Wednesday, March 18th: Lulu and Nathan’s First Official Date

Wednesday, March 18th, Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins Bruening) and Nathan West (Ryan Paevey) are out on their official first date. Now that Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) and Dante know, well, you know, Lulu and Nathan can go public and give it a real shot. I think they’re going to get a lot of side eye around town.

Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) gets romantic with Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) and Jason has a hard conversation with somebody. I’m pretty sure it’s Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn) because Jason needs to tell him that he’s leaving town and he can’t really tell him why. I mean, Danny’s a teenager, not a little kid still. But I don’t think Jason should be leaving his kid.

Elizabeth is put on the spot by someone. Maybe Ric on this reunion thing. Maybe somebody else. Lucas Jones (Van Hansis) has cause for alarm and obviously Marco Rios (Adrian Anchondo) is trying to get Britt’s meds and there’s a lot of urgency to that. So, we’ll see how that goes.

Thursday, March 19th: Jason Jumps into Action on General Hospital

Then on Thursday, March 19th, Jason jumps into action. So, maybe it’s to protect Britt. You know, we’ll see if they run into danger on their way out of town. I think they’re going to make it out of town safely, but we’ll see. Also, Ava has a warning for Lucas.

That could be about Sidwell, but I don’t know. She seems to like him and is blind to his villain. Or maybe about his sister Carly. Lulu and Nathan are interrupted on their date. I mean, gosh, it could be Dante, Felicia Scorpio (Kristina Wagner), or Mac Scorpio (John J. York) or Damian Spinelli (Bradford Anderson).

Anybody’s going to be shocked to see Lulu and Nathan out on a date, you know, making star eyes at each other. Tracy gets into an argument with Alexis. And it may be about who’s going to keep an eye on Danny while Jason’s gone.

but he already asked Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) to do it. And Marco takes a big risk and it looks like he’s going to make a move to get into that safe at Wyndemere and get Britt’s medication because Lucas wants him to.

GH Spoilers Friday, March 20th: Michael Gets Defensive

Friday, March 20th, we’re going to wrap up the week with Michael getting defensive. So, this may be about taking some heat from the ladies because Jason has given him responsibility for Danny instead of Tracy or Alexis or anybody else. It could have something to do with Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) and the kids, though.

Plus, Nathan gives Dante a warning and it may be about, you know, cop business or the Jane Doe baby case or even him and Lulu. You know, maybe he says the date went well. We’re going to, you know, keep seeing each other.

Alexis demands answers. And this could be about Jason leaving Danny and leaving town, or it could be about her really not wanting to take Scout Cain (Cosette Abinante) over to Drew Cain Quartermaine‘s (Cameron Mathison) place.

Britt is rattled. Also this week, sparks are flying again for Carly and Valentin. They’re in Carly’s kitchen, but I bet they’re going to make it back to the bedroom soon.

Week Two: March 23rd-27th General Hospital Spoilers

The week of March 23rd through the 27th, Jason’s offscreen, really soon. Steve Burton left on his sabbatical weeks ago and confirmed he is offscreen by the end of the month. Our source says he is abducted. Check back tomorrow for an exclusive leak on this.

Britt and Jason run into a problem and Valentin and Carly are getting closer and of course they’re going to continue plotting against Jack and now there’s other players in here with Cullum and Sidwell and all that.

And I do wonder if with all this intrigue Valentin and Carly may catch genuine feelings. I’m here for it. This is one of my favorite pairings of Carly’s if I’m being honest.

General Hospital: Lulu & Nathan Heat Up & Drew is Terrified

Michael looks out for Danny while Jason is gone and Marco may land in trouble. He took a huge risk betraying his father and Cullum to get the meds and he may be seen. You know, Pascal’s always creeping around. Lulu and Nathan are heating up on General Hospital.

I do hope they figure out what the deal is with him and those missing seven years before, you know, Lulu hits the sheets with him. Jordan is struggling with her secret and I do think she’s going to have to tell Curtis and after it’s out then Jordan is struggling with the fallout from that and what is next for her in this pregnancy.

Britt is absolutely terrified because things are going to go sideways and it’s not going to be a situation of Jason being able to protect her like they planned. Plus, Drew is desperate to escape Willow’s clutches. So, I wonder if he’s going to get through to somebody soon.

The good news is Kai Taylor (Jens Austin Astrup) actually still residually cares about the guy a little bit and he’s going to be around a lot. Sonny and DA Justine Turner (Nazneen Contractor) have a hard time resisting the pull towards each other.

And Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke) plays Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros). So, Valentin didn’t like it, but Charlotte wants to feed Nina some false info to throw Brennan off her dad’s trail.

QVC fashion designer Kim Gravel is reacting to a shopper who called into her show with an unforgettable testimonial.

“I loved it!” Gravel, 54, exclusively told Us Weekly on Monday, March 16, of the caller’s unconventional fashion confession. “That’s the fun of live TV. You never know what a caller is going to say. Moments like that are exactly why I love taking calls during shows. It reminds me that we’re all just women having a good time talking about clothes — and apparently tassels!”

Over the weekend, QVC shared a clip of a woman named Maryanne praising Gravel’s clothes.

“I wanted to tell you that I got that blouse with the tassels, and I used to wear the tassels on my pasties,” the caller said. “Do you know what pasties are? Well, I had tassels on my pasties.”

During the live — and unscripted — moment, QVC program host Mary DeAngelis quickly stepped out of the shot, likely to hide her full reaction.

As for Gravel, she kept the conversation going and praised the shopper for sharing her story.

“Maryanne, I just want to say this: You are my emotional support diva,” Gravel said. “You have just made my whole entire day. Mary’s walked off. She’s dead on the couch. Maryanne is my sister from another mister.”

DeAngelis, 50, added, “I’m having therapy with Maryanne right now.”

Gravel is one of QVC’s top fashion designers and was previously named the network’s vendor of the year. In addition to her fashion brand, Belle by Kim Gravel, she also has her Love Who You Are beauty line.

Her next project is a digital course titled Selling With Soul. Launching Tuesday, March 17, the eight-module digital course breaks down Gravel’s exact playbook behind generating over $1.4 billion in live sales.

Some QVC shoppers can’t help but make a connection with some of the network’s products — and hosts. Over the years, viewers have developed close bonds with longtime program hosts who have a gift of selling everything from fashion and beauty products to food and electronics.

“Selling With Soul is built on the belief that live selling is a conversation, not a performance,” Gravel shared in a statement to Us. “When you focus on genuine connection and create a space where people feel valued, the audience responds and the business grows in an authentic, sustainable way.”

As for live phone calls, Gravel previously told Us that she has no idea what to expect when the program hosts welcome in a shopper during a show.

“Not only do I [not] know what to expect, but QVC doesn’t,” she told Us in May 2025. “It is truly, authentically the customer calling in. And you never know what they’re gonna say. They never tell you in your ear, ‘She’s gonna ask you about this.’ All you see on the screen is their name and where they’re from. That’s it.”

Starfleet Academy recently ended its first season with “Rubincon,” an episode (spoilers, space cadets!) which completed Caleb’s long-running story arc. He is finally reunited with his mother, and his mom has even made peace with Chancellor Ake, the one who put her in prison. This makes for a mostly crowdpleasing season capper that might (just might) prove popular enough to win over the show’s biggest haters.

It’s a solid episode, but as the credits rolled, I found myself letting out a breath I didn’t realize I was holding. Based on how this first season ended, it looks like Starfleet Academy is going to finally stop copying the worst thing about Discovery, which has been arguably dragging the newest NuTrek show down from the beginning. Now that Caleb is no longer the focus, this new Star Trek show can stop focusing on a main character and focus on the entire ensemble cast.

The Michael Burnham Show

When Star Trek: Discovery first came out, it boldly went where no Star Trek show had gone before by focusing on a singular main character. Michael Burnham was the undisputed main character, and this controversial NuTrek show followed her fall and subsequent rise: she went from a brilliant Starfleet officer to a disgraced traitor to a decorated captain, all in the space of five seasons. While she ultimately proved to be a compelling character (a take admittedly as hot as the warp core), the endless focus on Burnham meant that we didn’t even learn the names of most of the bridge crew until Season 2.

Both Picard and Strange New Worlds proved to be a hard course correction, with these shows’ stories leaning extensively on a smaller ensemble cast. The same was true of Lower Decks, the gone-too-soon cartoon love letter to the Star Trek franchise. However, perhaps because it is a spinoff of Discovery, Starfleet Academy’s first season replicated the older show’s formula, albeit with a slight tweak.

Star Trek’s Latest Main Character

Caleb is, without a doubt, the main character of Starfleet Academy: the whole season revolves around his quest to find his jailbreak mother, and he has a shared history with both Captain Ake and Nus Braka, the show’s conniving supervillain. Caleb’s relationship with the bad guy gives him ongoing relevance to the plot, as does the fact that the ship’s captain acts as his surrogate mother. Fortunately, Starfleet Academy doesn’t focus on Caleb nearly as much as Discovery focused on Burnham, so there’s enough space to give the other cadets their share of the screen time.

Well, almost enough: one of the odder things about Starfleet Academy Season 1 is that Genesis is the only cadet who doesn’t get her own episode focusing primarily on her development. SAM, Darem, Tarima, and Jay-Den all get their own episodes, but the best the show can do for Genesis is to let her hum around an abandoned academy with Caleb. That episode (“Zo’Kheine”) mostly focuses on Darem and his people while Caleb stays home and tries to write a letter to a recovering Tamira. 

Here Comes (And Here Goes) Genesis

Genesis gets into a few shenanigans, but for her, this episode mostly sets up an arc that she’s not command material. The Season 1 finale “Rubincon” pays lip service to this arc by having Genesis briefly take command. But considering that all she does in the captain’s chair is say that she has to pee, it’s fair to say that this storyline never really pays off. 

Fortunately for Genesis and the other sadets, “Rubincon” also wraps up Caleb’s major storylines by having him reunite with his mother. She even makes her peace with the Federation, which means that Caleb can have his cake and eat it, too. He can stay enrolled at Starfleet Academy with his mother’s blessing and not be forced to choose between his biological family and his found family.

Trauma Boy, No More

It’s my hope that Starfleet Academy is done with focusing on a singular character. Again, Caleb is a very interesting character, and the show’s writers did a decent job of obsessing about him the way the Discovery writers obsessed about Michael. Nonetheless, the show already has more main characters than any show in Star Trek history, so making Caleb the de facto lead character meant even less of a focus on the ensemble cast.

Now, with any luck, Star Trek has evolved beyond the need to have a main character as surely as the Federation has evolved beyond the need for money. Of course, with my luck, the franchise will copy the Bridgerton formula and focus on a new main character each season. If that happens, maybe the writers can scratch the itch of their Caleb fascination by making him the 32nd-century equivalent of Lady Whistledown, who knows the tea (Earl Grey, hot) about everyone.

Young and the Restless two week spoilers for March 16th through the 27th. We’re going to talk about Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) getting kicked out and Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) smirking.

Young and the Restless Spoilers Monday, March 16th: Nikki Tells Traci That Victor Kidnapped Jack

Monday, March 16th, we’ve got Nikki over at the Abbott mansion telling Traci Abbott (Beth Maitland) that Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) kidnapped Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman). And Traci tells her that Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters), Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor), and Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) got a lead and they are searching for him.

Now, Nikki says Victor confessed that Jack’s being held on a yacht in Lake Michigan and that there is a woman with him. So, Nikki’s worried that Victor is dangerous and is going to do something he can’t take back. Nikki and Traci also wonder if Victor planned for this woman to seduce Jack. Although Traci doubts that Victor would hurt Jack.

Nikki has to disagree with her because she knows better. Over on Lake Michigan, Billy, Diane, and Kyle get to the yacht, but it’s too late. Bad things have happened. Jack and Patty were drugged. He was drugged non-consensually. Her I know she seems to be drugged, but she may have taken the drug willingly. You know, plausible deniability and all that because she is nuts. So, Jack keeps telling Patty to stop, but she doesn’t. And as far as I’m concerned, she sexually assaults him.

Young and Restless Spoilers: Jack Can’t Believe What he’s Done

After they do the deed, Patty tells Jack it was amazing, but he is absolutely sickened about it. And of course, that’s when Diane burst in and sees Jack in bed with Patty. And Kyle and Billy are there, too, seeing him in flagrante. Patty is taunting Diane, who freaks out, and Jack tries to explain.

Diane’s raging about him sleeping with a psycho. Kyle and Billy escort Patty out of the room, and then Diane slaps Jack in the face. Billy calls Traci to say they found Jack safe and sound. At that point, all they know is that he was assaulted by Victor.

But I’m sure they’re going to find out soon he was assaulted by Patty as well. Also, 4 Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) and Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) are joining forces to stop Matt Clark (Roger Howarth). They’re heading to Vegas. And Chelsea Lawson Newman (Melissa Claire Egan) tells Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) she’s afraid Adam being in Vegas could take him back to a dark place, but Sharon thinks Adam can handle it.

And they think Nick will take care of him. Boy, are they wrong on that front. Sharon mentions Nick is in pain and about the drugs he’s taking. And Sharon also tells Chelsea she doesn’t think Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes) is getting any better.

Young and Restless Spoilers: Adam Reassures Victor

Adam and Nick talk to Victor about their trip to Vegas chasing a lead on Matt and Adam reassures Victor he will be fine and he wants to help the family. So Nick is adamant that it has to be just him and Adam with no security detail going along. Victor agrees and Nick says they’re going to end Matt for good this time.

Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) is there and tells Nick and Adam she is heading to see Summer Newman (Allison Lanier), but Nick doesn’t like it and it should be up to him. That’s his daughter, you know, and if he says no, as he keeps telling Victoria no, it should be no. But of course, you know, she’s more of a mini Victor than either of his sons. So, she also tells her brothers that Victor kidnapped Jack. Meanwhile, Victor says no comment and he won’t discuss it. But Victoria says she agrees with her dad’s methods, which shocks both of her brothers. And Adam is worried and wants to know how far this is going to go. Nick tells Victor he thinks he’s just starting a war with the Abbotts for no reason. And he also tells Victoria to stop acting like their dad. Wiser words, right?

Adam goes to tell Chelsea goodbye as Nick goes to say goodbye to Sharon and he promises to get rid of Matt for good.

Victor Kicks Nikki Out of the House

So Nikki rolls up back in the house and she starts raging at Victor for lying to her. Then Nikki says, “By the way, Jack has been rescued. So you know, your little plan didn’t work.” So Victor’s kind of annoyed. He goes to verify it. Nikki tells him she thinks this serves Victor right. Nick hopes that Nikki’s not going to kill Victor while they’re gone, but she says she’s not going to go easy on him.

Victor comes back after confirming that Jack was indeed saved and he’s very annoyed. Nikki calls him hateful, says she’ll never forgive him, and Victor explodes and tells Nikki to get out, leave, throws her out of the house.

Tuesday, March 17th: Jack Becomes a Problem for Victor and Nikki’s Marriage

On Tuesday, March 17th, we’ve got Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) getting a warning from Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic). And it may be for Cane to keep his distance from Lily Winters (Christel Khalil). She’s back any day now.

And Jack becomes a problem for Victor and Nikki’s marriage. And I’m sure Jack is going to tell Nikki that Victor drugged him and that Patty raped him. I hope Jack calls the cops.

Back in Genoa City, Diane makes a big move. You know, we’ll see if she throws Jack out of the house or moves out herself. I’m also curious if she’s going to insist that Jack press charges on his rapist Patty and her enabler, Victor.

Wednesday, March 18th: Adam Goes Above and Beyond to Help Nick

On Wednesday, March 18th, Adam goes above and beyond to help Nick. So, we may get some scenes with Rizza, that lady that he knew. Since they’ve name dropped her so much, I’m guessing we’re going to see her. And, you know, we’ll see if him being back in Vegas and around people from his Spider card sharp days is going to have him turning dark again. But, honestly, I don’t think he’s the problem. I think it’s Nick turning dark that’s the problem. And if anything puts Adam at risk, you know, above and beyond Matt, it’s probably going to be his brother.

This week, Adam tells Nick that they will get Matt. And once they set it up and get him in their hands, then Adam says Nick can deal with Matt however he sees fit. I don’t think Adam cares if Nick gives the guy a dirt nap.

This week at Crimson Lights, Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun) is looking happy while talking to Noah Newman (Lucas Adams), but Sharon is with them and she’s not looking very happy at all.

Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) encourages Billy to go make amends with his mom, Jill Abbott (Jess Walton). And I am very curious to see what happens with Chancellor after this since Jack is loose.

Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) gets surprising news from Lauren Fenmore (Tracey Bregman). I wonder if she’s going to accept Phyllis’s job offer and join her over at Newman Enterprises.

Thursday and Friday: March Madness Preemptions

So on Thursday and Friday, March 19th and 20th, we have back-to-back preemptions for CBS Sports coverage of March Madness. Why it cannot be on ESPN, I don’t know, or over on Paramount Plus where they stream a lot of live sports, but no, it’s taking our soap off the air for two days.

Week Two: March 23rd-27th Spoilers

So, the week of March 23rd through the 27th, we’re back with fresh episodes. Adam and Nick’s plan for Matt intensifies, but with Nick struggling with drug addiction and still in pain, I worry that Matt is going to get the better of both of Victor’s sons. We know there’s a massive showdown coming with Matt soon.

Nikki and Victor’s marriage is hanging by a thread that seems to be on fire. Nikki obviously can’t get past Victor abducting Jack and the Patty situation and Victor throwing Nikki out is going to exacerbate things. So, I wonder if she’s going to go check in at the GCAC or turn around and demand that Victor leave because she built the house for him, so it’s her house, right?

Jack fights for Diane. I’m sure that Jack’s not going to give up on Diane without a fight.

Nick needs to score more fentanyl soon. Lily reconnects with her family when she’s back and she and Cane need to have some serious conversations.

Young and Restless Spoilers: Billy Makes a Decision

Billy makes a decision about Jill and Phyllis is going to regroup now that Jack is safe. So, will she still give Chancellor to Billy? I don’t think she’s going to give anything to Victor after what he did. Not that she ever wanted to give him anything.

Sharon and Chelsea remain worried about Nick and Adam. Noah and Sienna continue to get closer, but Matt may be back in Genoa City soon, which means Sienna’s going to be at risk.

Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) begins targeting Kyle. We’ll see how long it takes Claire Grace Newman (Hayley Erin) to notice that.

Sharon’s stress over Mariah grows as Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks) and Daniel Romalotti (Michael Graziadei) continue to heat up.

And Patty, by the way, is not done yet. So, will she be arrested for what she did to Jack? Will she tell Detective James Burrow (Matt Cohen) the role that Victor played in the kidnapping? So, her scenes aren’t over yet. I love Stacy Haiduk.

Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos posed up a storm as they attended an Oscars Party, but the 56-year-old public figure was caught shooing her husband away from her side so she could get some solo shots.

The couple is expected to grace the Met Gala later this year, after emerging as one of the event’s major sponsors.

Lauren Sanchez also recently weighed in on her headline-grabbing Venetian wedding to the billionaire, which was attended by several Hollywood bigwigs.

Lauren Sanchez Shoos Jeff Bezos Away To Pose Solo

Lauren Sanchez and her husband, Jeff Bezos, were quite the couple to beat as they attended the Vanity Fair Oscar Party looking dapper in black ensembles.

The Amazon founder attended the event, which was held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, wearing a black suit with a white button-up shirt and black bow tie. On her part, Sanchez wore a strapless black gown that had glittery embellishments from the hip and thigh-high slits.

She threw on a pair of tights, chunky heels, and adorned herself with diamond accessories. She packed her black hair into a sculpted updo, leaving a few strands loose to frame her face.

As they walked the red carpet, the couple posed for photos while holding hands lovingly. However, Sanchez was then caught on camera gesturing to Bezos to go out of the frame so that she could pose alone, which he obliged.

Fans Troll The Couple’s Awkward Red Carpet Moment

Meanwhile, many fans took to social media to not only point out Sanchez’s cheeky gesture to her husband, but also what many say is Bezos’ “different” look.

One person wrote, “Poor Jeff,” while a second commented, “She’s such a f-cking diva.”

“[She] pushed him out of the way,” a third person wrote on X, while another noted, “Money can’t buy class.”

One harsh critic slammed the couple, stating, “These 2 are the worst of humanity! Shouldn’t even be there, useless, talentless, and gross!”

Amid the criticism, several praised Sanchez for her influence on Bezos.

“Okay, but they actually look so good together,” an X user wrote, while another added, “I’m sorry, but they ate this look up.”

“When you show up to the Oscars like you just bought the red carpet… and probably could,” someone else said, seemingly referencing Sanchez and Bezos’ wealth.

One fan suggested Sanchez’s fashion influence is robbing off on the Blue Origin boss, saying, “That woman is probably the best thing that could happen to him. He looks so much better than those photos of him with the lazy eye during the launch of Amazon.”

Jeff Bezos’ Facial Appearance Was Also Scrutinized

Online, some individuals couldn’t help but speculate whether Bezos had gone under the knife since his marriage to Sanchez.

“He kinda looks different though,” a fan wrote, with someone else commenting, “It sounds weird to say, but I think his face looks thicker? It was always so thin before.”

“Is his face getting weird and puffy like hers?” someone else asked about the billionaire.

Lauren Sanchez Speaks On Her Upcoming Met Gala Gig

Sanchez and Bezos are fast becoming Hollywood’s must-have party guests, as they’re expected to also attend the Met Gala on May 4 after footing much of the bill for the event.

This year’s dress code is “fashion is art,” which will serve as an anchor for guests against the event’s overall theme of “costume art.”

The children’s book author recently weighed in on her and her husband’s upcoming Met Gala appearance, where they’ll serve as honorary chairs, per the Daily Mail.

“It has been such a fun and meaningful experience, and when Anna [Wintour] called me and said, ‘Do you want to co-chair and also be the sponsors of the Met?’ I was so honored,” she said. “And then she told me the theme, fashion is art. And these designers are true artists.”

However, it hasn’t come without some sort of controversy, with Anna Wintour having to address the criticism in a November interview with CNN.

Wintour explained that Sanchez is a “great lover of costume and obviously of fashion,” and that she believes she would be a “wonderful asset to the museum and the event.”

“We’re very grateful for her incredible generosity,” Wintour continued. “So we’re thrilled she’s part of the night.”

The Philanthropist Reveals The Reason She Was ‘Bawling’ At Her Wedding To Jeff Bezos

Away from fashion, Sanchez recently looked back at her Venetian wedding to Bezos and spoke about the reason she started “bawling” happy tears.

The couple walked down the aisle in June last year, and their wedding was graced by Hollywood’s big names, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Sydney Sweeney, Kim Kardashian, and a host of others.

Speaking with Extra as part of promotional efforts for her new book, “The Fly Who Flew Under the Sea,” Sanchez spoke about her destination wedding and the things their respective kids did that left her emotional.

“We did tear up the dance floor. We had so much fun,” she said. “It was really incredible being there with, you know, all of our kids, our family, our best friends, and we danced all night. It was really, really fun.”

“All of our kids gave speeches, mine and Jeff’s, and they were all so meaningful,” she shared. “My daughter gave a speech during the ceremony, this was before we said our vows, and [I] started bawling. Like, I could not- I’m like, ‘Oh, my gosh’ right before the pictures.”

She added, “And so all of our kids gave these speeches, and they were all extremely emotional and loving, and I think they made the wedding what it was.”

Bold and the Beautiful two-week spoilers for March 16th through the 27th reveal Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) being humiliated, Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) exploding, and some critical preemptions that you need to know about to be ready for your week.

Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers Monday, March 16th: Ridge Gets Humiliated by Bill at the Press Conference

On Monday, March 16th, we have Ridge getting humiliated by Bill Spencer (Don Diamont). And this is going to be epic. So, we’re going to pick right back up on Monday where we left off on Friday at the press conference.

And we have got Katie Logan (Heather Tom) and Bill facing off with Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Ridge and Eric Forrester (John McCook) at the Logan press conference as all the influencers and the journalists looking on wide-eyed.

They’re recording with their phones, so you know, there’s live streams happening. Eric is asked if he really left Forrester. And sounds like he may be sidestepping the question because he tells the press that his heart belongs to Forrester and always will.

Then Brooke says Eric is back at Forrester where he belongs and he’s happy to be there at the company that he founded and he is no longer associated with Katie and her so-called fashion house. Those are fighting words between the sisters.

VIP Dottie (Morgan Fairchild) asks about the designs and Bill says they were done exclusively for Logan and are the cornerstone of its first collection and that Eric did do them and asked for some clarity. Bill says it means what he’s been saying over and over. Eric Forrester did these designs for Logan’s debut and says we’re just getting started.

B&B Spoilers: Ridge Put on Blast & Eric on the Spot

And then Eric is asked by one of the influencers if it’s awkward being back at Forrester after what Ridge did to him. And I think this may blindside them because they got to the press conference after Bill told everybody there that Ridge had forced Eric into retirement. So he just threw their dirty laundry right out there in front of everybody.

Dottie’s assistant, Joseph (Jim J. Bullock), is whispering to her that it’s a little too close for comfort. You know, I’m sure they’re thrilled to be there front row for this. And Ridge tells Eric, “Come on, let’s get out of here.” And pulls his dad away. But the press and the influencers follow them out, calling Eric’s name as Brooke gives Katie a disgusted death glare.

I don’t think Brooke speaking on behalf of Eric like he has no voice of his own and talking about his feelings instead of letting him talk about his own feelings is going to be very helpful in this situation because the press is going to be like well why can’t he just talk for himself? That’d be my question. Obviously he’s a grown-up and you know doesn’t need Brooke talking for him.

Bold and Beautiful Spoilers: Will & RJ Face Off

Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) and RJ Forrester‘s (Joshua Hoffman) animosity intensifies on Monday and this week he’s telling Will that he’s a low life just like his dad. But Will tells RJ he’s not going to let him bully him out of Forrester Creations.

We’re going to have a lot of bullying going on this week by the way. Some of it from RJ, some of it from Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace). A lot more from Ivy Forrester (Ashleigh Brewer).

B&B Spoilers Tuesday, March 17th: Bill Presses Will to Leave Forrester Creations

So on Tuesday, March 17th, we’ve got Will over at the Spencer offices angry at his parents, upset at Bill and Katie. It looks like the Forresters are trying to turn Will against his parents and have told the kid that Bill and Katie stole Eric’s designs. So, at Spencer Publications, in front of Katie, we have Bill telling Will, “You can’t steal something that you own.”

After Bill explains it, is Will going to realize that he was being manipulated by somebody into trying to turn them against his parents? I’m sure they think that’s fair game because they think that Bill and Katie, you know, tricked Eric into something when he insisted that he be their designer.

I mean, like it or not, that is actually what he said. He insisted she didn’t ask. We also have Bill pressing Will to leave Forrester Creations after, you know, them trash talking him and he wants his son to come over to Spencer and be part of the legacy they’re building over there.

Bold and Beautiful Spoilers: Deke Reassures Dylan

Meanwhile, Deke Sharpe (Harrison Cone) is there for Dylan (Sydney Bullock) when she’s worried about a big event and Electra comes at Dylan and they have it out there face to face. So, this week at Forrester, Dylan’s actually trying to make things right, bury the hatchet with Electra and Dylan tells Electra she doesn’t want to start on a bad foot and Electra claps back at her that Dylan’s bad foot has been in action for quite some time. It’s terrible dialogue.

Anyway, Steffy challenges Ivy and Electra. I don’t think she wants their nonsense personal stuff messing with the Forrester workday or her new hire Dylan. So Ivy and Electra both try and undermine Dylan, but Steffy isn’t having it and it looks like they’re ganging up on her in the Forrester Creations showroom. Meanwhile, RJ pitches a men’s clothing line to Ridge. That’s interesting.

Wednesday, March 18th: Dylan Overhears Ivy and Dylan’s Conversation on B&B

Wednesday, March 18th, we’ve got Ivy continuing to meddle in Electra’s life. So, any guess what stunt Ivy pulls now? Something aggro. Dylan overhears Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire) and Ivy talking and she’s completely shocked. So, it seems like Dylan is going to find out that Ivy was manipulating things.

And she may even hear, depending on how much Dylan reiterates that Ivy stole a letter that Electra wrote for Will. So, the question is, will Dylan expose the truth? Will she go tell Will, or will she sit on it? I think she definitely wants to keep Will. So, my guess is, at least for now, Dylan keeps things to herself. Daphne tells Ivy that Electra and Will love each other.

And Ivy is very dismissive and says kids date things happen. So, this is what Dylan is overhearing and an angry Electra confronts Dylan about her actions with Will. I expect Electra to say that she kissed her man, but they were broken up. And I’m curious if Dylan’s going to tell Electra she knows that she kissed RJ so she’s being a hypocrite.

Thursday and Friday: March Madness Preemptions

Thursday and Friday, these are the preemptions. Despite there being multiple ESPN channels to choose from, we are going to lose two episodes of Bold and the Beautiful for NCAA College March Madness basketball coverage. And I say boo to that.

Week Two: March 23rd-27th Spoilers

The week of March 23rd through the 27th, we’re going to pick back up with our storylines and new episodes. And we’ll see if Will pushes back on Bill about staying at Forrester because he really hates RJ and I don’t think Will wants him to win. If he leaves, then RJ may feel like he won. And I don’t think Will’s going to do that.

Meanwhile, Electra gets closer to RJ with Ivy pushing her. And I do think Electra is going to turn to RJ to rant about Dylan working there. You know, she might have RJ joining the bullying crew. And I think Steffy is going to have to take some action to get these people in line. Also, Dylan has probably decided to sit on the info that could reconcile Will and Electra.

You know, she’s probably going to debate it a little bit. I bet Dylan’s going to hide it now because of her huge crush on Will and maybe she thinks, “Oh, well, they’re done.” Hopefully, she’ll talk it through with Deke, but he also is not particularly fond of Electra at this point and may tell her, “You know what? You should just go for it.”

Bold and Beautiful Spoilers: Daphne Exposes Ivy

Daphne should be going to Steffy soon with some info. With Electra and Ivy getting increasingly aggressive with Dylan, we could see Steffy venting to Daphne about it and then she decides, “Okay, this is the time I need to tell Steffy what Ivy has been doing to exacerbate this situation.”

Ridge vows revenge on Bill for outing to the world the awful thing that he did to his dad, Eric. And Brooke and Katie are at war and that’s going to escalate. They both feel they are 100% in the right. Fans are very torn.

Eric is distraught and he feels responsible for this mess. I hope Ridge owns it and tells Eric that it’s not his fault, it’s his own fault because I think that’s accurate and Donna Logan (Jennifer Gareis) of course remains caught in the middle.

The Oscars may celebrate standout films, but the red carpet is always a trend-setting style spectacle.

Former Fashion Police star Melissa Rivers brought her signature expertise while sounding off about the sartorial hits and misses exclusively to Us Weekly hours after the A-listers gathered at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on Sunday, March 15.

Melissa — daughter of the late Joan Rivers — gave a gold star to Rose Byrne, who dazzled in an “absolutely breathtaking” Dior number by Jonathan Anderson. The strapless gown featured flowers embroidered along the bodice and hem as well as an elegant train.

Bryne, 46, opted for a bold red lip and accessorized with a “beautiful” Taffin choker necklace by James de Givenchy, which Melissa loved because it didn’t “overpower the dress.”

She also gave high praise to Teyana Taylor, who stole the show in a black-and-white crystal-embroidered Chanel gown with a sheer panel that exposed her washboard abs, while it was covered in dramatic feathers from the hips down.

“She actually looks like she’s having fun on the carpets and saving the best for last,” Melissa, 58, told Us, noting that Taylor, 35, likely wanted to wrap up awards season with something unforgettable.

Speaking about Byrne and Taylor at the 98th Academy Awards, Melissa admitted, “You can’t even say which is better, it’s 1A and 1B. You know, we’re gonna have to put them alphabetically, cause that’s how tight it is.”

Melissa also credited Gwyneth Paltrow with delivering a “movie star” moment when she hit the scene in a strapless ivory silk Giorgio Armani Privé gown that had a super-high slit with a sheer sparkling fabric underneath.

“Minimal, chic, and then sideways … holy cow,” Melissa told Us, adding, “It was amazing.”

Melissa pointed out that it was a “big night for Chanel” as Jessie Buckley served up her own iconic look in what the brand described as a “a light pink bustier chiffon dress with a red satin leather stole.”

As for the fashion looks that missed the mark, Melissa told Us she didn’t issue any citations but did have “disappointments” — and from “two women who I, nine times out of 10, love.”

“These hit me a little bit hard,” she admitted, revealing the first was Elle Fanning who wore custom Givenchy by Sarah Burton. “She’s done the same look basically all through award season, and I felt like she looked washed out,” Melissa said.

The New York Times best-selling author noted that Fanning, 27, is such a “fashionista,” but this time, “You disappointed me, because I expect so much from you.”

Melissa said the other was Kirsten Dunst, who donned a structural tiered dress.

The style expert told Us, “She was wearing Celine, which is currently one of my favorite designers, and I felt like the dress just didn’t work.”

“I think it was the proportions,” Melissa said. “I don’t know, it just fell flat.”

Beloved and affable actor Jerry O’Connell appeared on Bill Maher’s Club Random podcast this weekend, where he revealed he was physically assaulted by his wife and two 17-year-old daughters after making a negative comment about Kamala Harris. It happened on the night of Donald Trump’s victory over Harris, while watching election returns with his family.

As O’Connell tells it, he’s a lifelong liberal who voted for Kamala Harris. However, when the returns started coming in, and it became clear Trump would win, he said of Kamala Harris: “There was no planning. This is what they get. There should have been a primary.”

According to Jerry, at this moment, his two 17-year-old daughters and his wife, actress and model Rebecca Romijn, assaulted him. He says, “My wife and daughters, without saying anything, became physical with me. They were filled with rage.”

He went on to paint a picture of a world where he lives in daily terror of saying the wrong thing, suggesting that this wasn’t an isolated incident. Jerry explained, “So if I am being careful with you in how I say things, I live with not one, not two, but three people who, if I made any kind of joke, they’d become very angry with me, you know?”

The interview went on, but Jerry kept making sad references to what seems like a difficult home life. Though he doesn’t use drugs himself, he admitted that his wife has to vape before she’ll be intimate with him. He explained, “The only time my wife finds me appealing, is intimate with me… the only time my wife, what’s the word, touches me, is if my wife takes a hit off that pen.”

Jerry O’Connell is a bona fide geek icon. He starred in the cult-hit kid superhero show My Secret Identity in the late 80s, led the beloved multiverse-hopping series Sliders in the 1990s, and, in recent years, starred as the voice of Commander Ransom on the best of the modern Star Trek shows, Lower Decks.

He has millions of fans who want nothing but the best for him, and if his story is true, it sounds like his life may be in turmoil. No one should suffer abuse of any kind, from their family or anyone else, for the things they say.

The boom of the Peak TV era has left viewers with more options than ever before when it comes to small-screen viewing. With so much to choose from — and so many different platforms to peruse — it’s becoming increasingly difficult for networks to break out with a bona fide hit. Streamers tend to have the flashier, higher-budget shows that can entice viewers with bold premises and expansive genre worlds. Many of the biggest television hits of the past several years — Stranger Things, The Last of Us, Andor — have been sci-fi epics belonging to established properties. However, the recent success of NBC‘s new comedy The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins proves classic network sitcoms still have staying power.

‘The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins’ Premiere Scored Huge Viewership Numbers

The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins is NBC’s highest-profile new show of the current TV season, backed by a number of big-name creatives. It stars Tracy Morgan as the titular character, a disgraced former NFL star who seeks redemption and a place in the Hall of Fame. To achieve that, he hires Oscar-winning filmmaker Arthur Tobin (Daniel Radcliffe) to make a documentary about his life, though it soon becomes apparent that the two men have very different visions for the project.

NBC clearly saw the potential of The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins, which was co-created by 30 Rock‘s Sam Means and Robert Carlock. The first episode received an early broadcast premiere, dropping on January 18 after the NFL playoff game between the Los Angeles Rams and Chicago Bears. Per Variety, this earned an initial audience of 5.8 million viewers, but the total number has grown substantially since then. When delayed viewing from Peacock and other platforms is factored in, in the 50 days since its premiere, The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins‘ first episode has reached nearly 13 million viewers. Additionally, Episode 2 is Peacock’s most-watched comedy episode of the 2025-26 season to date. The specific viewership number was not disclosed.

Since then, a few more episodes have aired, though it isn’t yet clear how well they have performed. It’s likely that The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins‘ audience will dip a bit in subsequent weeks; it’s extremely rare that a show keeps going up, as oftentimes viewers can fall behind with week-to-week releases. However, this definitely puts the series in a great position for the rest of its freshman run and shows that network TV still has a lot to offer. Big-budget sci-fi isn’t the only thing that can break out these days.

With Big Stars and a Classic Format, ‘The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins’ Has the Ingredients for a Hit

Network TV has developed a reputation for being more generic and less ambitious than streaming projects, which also have the added benefit of attracting A-list talent. The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins challenges this idea, albeit in a way that still firmly marks it as a broadcast title. Its biggest strength is the odd-couple pairing of Morgan and Radcliffe, two stars with vastly different comedic styles and personalities. Morgan remains a legendary comedy actor thanks to his work on 30 Rock and Saturday Night Live, and Radcliffe continues to endear and impress audiences with his diverse post-Harry Potter roles. Their involvement alone gives The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins a big boost.

Beyond that, creatives Carlock and Means, as well as executive producer Tina Fey, have proven track records with sitcoms that serve as strong endorsements for audiences. The mockumentary format has produced enduring, fan-favorite hits like The Office, Parks and Recreation, and Modern Family, and The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins has given the well-trodden set-up a bit of a twist by having the crew be just as central to the plot as the subjects. It’s a throwback to the beloved sitcoms of the 2000s and 2010s with a fresh, updated spin, and it’s thus far been a big win for NBC and network TV as a whole.

Above all else, The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins‘ success is proof that what viewers want these days is unique, uncomplicated storytelling. It’s reliable entertainment, the kind that audiences can tune into week after week for classic laughs. Whereas the big-budget streaming offerings can be just as rewarding, they also often require more viewer investment and have varied release cycles. Network television can stick to a specific formula while offering original ideas, and in the case of The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins, its combined elements have made a recipe that audiences are happily devouring.

New episodes of The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins premiere on NBC on Mondays.

Stars graced the red carpet in stunning gowns and tailored suits at the 98th Academy Awards, but it was a standout accessory worn by many celebrities that stole the night.

Swadesh, the company behind some of the gorgeous one-of-a-kind couture pieces seen on high-profile attendees at last night’s event, brings “luxury craft from Indian designers under one roof to support their efforts in getting global visibility,” according to the company.

Celebrities such as esteemed stylist and “image architect” Law Roach, actress and singer Minnie Driver, actor Kyle MacLachlan, model Alessandra Ambrosio, designer and entrepreneur Tan France, Emmy-nominated TV host Justin Sylvester, singer Brandi Carlile, Pritika Swarup, founder of Prakti, a beauty and wellness brand, and journalist Zanna Roberts Rassi, were spotted throughout the night donning jewels and accessories from the company.

Founded by Indian businesswoman and philanthropist, Nita Ambani, Swadesh, “was created to sustain and promote India’s traditional arts, handlooms and crafts, while placing artisans at the center of the story,” a press release said. “Today, the initiative works closely with over 12,000 artisans across more than 500 craft traditions, helping ensure that these skills continue to thrive for generations to come. Each creation reflects authenticity, ethical sourcing, and the remarkable skill of the hands that make it.”

Rachel McAdams took the stage at the 2026 Oscars to honor former The Family Stone costar Diane Keaton after her death. “For over 50 years, luminous on screen and indelible in life, believe me when I say there isn’t an actress of my generation who is not inspired by and enthralled with her absolute singularity,” […]

Ambani’s daughter Isha, 34, who was in attendance at the Oscars, has helped to position the company as an emblem of Indian craftsmanship.

For Hollywood’s biggest night, Swadesh partnered with Indian designers to create custom pieces. “These featured exquisite, handcrafted fabrics created by highly skilled artisans in India, complemented by fine jewelry from its collections that spotlight India’s living traditions of metalwork and gemstone craftsmanship.”

Roach, 47, wore a dazzling brooch by Swadesh, on top of a 1997 Alexander McQueen suit. The brooch’s design “draws inspiration from the bold symmetry of the Art Deco era, echoing the architectural language of the iconic Eros Building in Mumbai, India—home to the Swadesh flagship store,” the company said.

Driver, 56, donned Swadesh’s Celestial Tiers multi-row solitaire necklace at the 31st Vanity Fair Oscars After Party. “Crafted in polished white gold, the piece features an elegant arrangement of pear, emerald and round brilliant-cut diamonds, set in descending rows that taper into a refined fringe-like drape along the neckline,” the company said.

Carlile, 44, who attended the awards show with her wife Catherine Shepherd, wore Swadesh’s Petal Prism Brooch, “inspired by the organic geometry of a sunflower.”

Former Us Weekly cover star, MacLachlan, 67, wore a stunning brooch with a 10.95-carat cushion-cut tourmaline encircled by a halo of diamonds.
