Thursday, August 7

Good afternoon Wypierdalaj,

Below are the latest entertainment news stories.

This is a developing story. Please check back for updates.

Savannah Guthrie asked her on TODAY on Aug. 7 what she could divulge about the series after it was reported in April that the film was becoming a show on Peacock.

“Not much,” she said before laughing. “I’m really excited about it. I think we’re going to try really hard. The goal is to make it honor what everyone loves about ‘Clueless’ and Cher.”

This story first appeared on TODAY.com. More from TODAY:

You’ve heard of “The Office,” but now it’s time for “The Paper.”

The spinoff of the iconic NBC show is coming to Peacock in September, and now we have the first trailer of the new mockumentary sitcom.

The two-minute clip shared Thursday showed actors Domhnall Gleeson, Sabrina Impacciatore and the returning Oscar Nuñez, among others.

Paul Walter Hauser is ready to report for duty in the reboot of “The Naked Gun,” with a badge in one hand and nachos in the other.

Speaking with NBC Sports’ Adriana Ferrari, Hauser shared his excitement about joining the latest take on the beloved slapstick franchise. “I was really excited that the movie was getting made at all,” he said. “And then when I found out it was Akiva Schaffer, I was like, Dude, the ‘Hot Rod,’ ‘The Lonely Island,’ like the guy ‘Popstar.’ He’s just amazing. So, yeah, I just put a lot of faith and trust into the project and was happy to be a part of it.”

The project also gave Hauser the chance to share the screen with some legendary names. “Our movie has a couple of great wrestlers in it,” he said, before later adding that the comedic tone of the film fits his sensibilities. While he didn’t name-drop his co-stars directly in this exchange, he is part of the ensemble alongside Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson, two icons who help anchor the film’s hilariously offbeat world.

Nestled on a narrow, one-way street in New Haven among Yale University buildings, a pizza joint and an ice cream shop, Toad’s Place looks like a typical haunt for college kids.

But inside the modest, two-story building is a veritable museum of paintings and signed photos depicting the head-turning array of artists who’ve played the nightclub over the years:

The Rolling Stones. Bob Dylan. Billy Joel. Bruce Springsteen. U2. The Ramones and Johnny Cash. Rap stars Kendrick Lamar, Drake, Kanye West, Cardi B, Run-D.M.C., Snoop Dogg and Public Enemy. Blues legends B.B. King, Bo Diddley, Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon and John Lee Hooker. And jazz greats Count Basie, Dizzy Gillespie and Herbie Hancock.

Kelly Clarkson shared that she is postponing the remainder of her “Studio Session” concerts in Las Vegas for August as her family faces a difficult chapter.

In an Instagram post shared Wednesday, Aug. 6, the singer said that she was postponing the August shows so that she could support her children as their father and Clarkson’s ex-husband Brandon Blackstock has been unwell.

“While I normally keep my personal life private, this past year, my children’s father has been ill and at this moment, I need to be fully present for them,” she wrote on Instagram.
