Channing Tatum Opens Up About His Divorce From Jenna Dewan

Channing Tatum got candid about his relationship with Jenna Dewan in an interview with Vanity Fair published on Tuesday (January 17th). The Magic Mike star shared that he doesn't know if he's "ever going to get married again," following their divorce in 2019.

In terms of what went wrong, Tatum said, "We fought for it for a really long time, even though we both sort of knew that we had sort of grown apart." The former couple met on the set of the 2006 movie Step Up and were married in 2009.

"I think we told ourselves a story when we were young, and we just kept telling ourselves that story, no matter how blatantly life was telling us that we were so different," he said. "But when you're actually parents, you really understand differences between the two of you. Because it is screaming at you all day long. How you parent differently, how you look at the world, how you go through the world."

The Lost City actor added that at first their separation was "super scary and terrifying," but that "it was probably exactly what I needed." Tatum is now in a relationship with Zoe Kravitz, while Dewan is engaged to Steve Kazee.

Seven-inch skull fracture, hairline fracture, and teeth and ribs," she said. "My hair extensions, you know, made the hairline fracture go together. My doctor said, ‘What are these metal things?' And I said, ‘They're hair extensions.' And he said, ‘They saved your life.'" The Holidate actress added that she regrets not taking legal action against the network. "I didn't do it out of fear and anxiety, so don't ever let fear rule your life. I have long-standing injuries from that. I wished I had listened to my dad, who said, ‘You're gonna wanna do this.'

Prince Harry And Meghan Markle Respond To Jeremy Clarkson's Public Apology

British broadcaster Jeremy Clarkson issued a public apology on Monday (January 16th) for an offensive article he wrote about Meghan Markle in December. Clarkson’s article was published in The Sun and focused on his “hate” for Markle, which he said he felt on a “cellular level.”

On Monday (January 16th), Clarkson wrote that he felt “sick” and “horrible” for what he wrote at that time, which included: "At night, I'm unable to sleep as I lie there, grinding my teeth and dreaming of the day when she is made to parade naked through the streets of every town in Britain while the crowds chant, 'Shame!' and throw lumps of excrement at her."

Later in the day Monday (January 16th), the Duke and Duchess of Sussex released a statement in response to his apology. "While a new public apology has been issued today by Mr. Clarkson, what remains to be addressed is his long standing pattern of writing articles that spread hate rhetoric, dangerous conspiracy theories, and misogyny," the statement read.

Prince Harry also discussed Clarkson’s article during a recent interview with Tom Bradby on ITV. "When we're talking about accountability, you know, just recently, which I know you know about, um you know, the Jeremy Clarkson article," he said. "So not only did, what he said was horrific and is hurtful and cruel towards my wife, but it also encourages other people around the U.K. and around the world, men particularly, to go and think that it's acceptable to treat women that way."

Additionally, Variety reports that a press conference for Clarkson’s Amazon Prime Video series titled Clarkson’s Farm was called off on Monday (January 16th)—and that the streaming platform is parting ways with him.

Oh, so she can sing like that too? I'm already here. We got another one.'" The CHiPs actor added that Bell gave him permission to divulge this information.

"I wanna preface it by that—in the 15 years I've known Kristen, she's had nothing but benevolence for everyone," he said. "She monitored you, recognized how brilliant you were, lost some roles to you, and slowly processed the whole thing, and has nothing but wonderful feelings for you. But you're the only person who ever made her jealous that I witnessed."

The 2023 Critics Choice Awards

The 28th annual Critics Choice Awards aired on The CW Sunday night (January 15th), hosted by Chelsea Handler. As nominees such as Jamie Lee Curtis, Colin Farrell, and Brendan Gleeson all tested positive for COVID-19 leading up to the event, attendees were required to test negative for COVID-19 72 hours before the show.

In her opening monologue, Handler commented on the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. "I'm just happy to be here tonight, supporting the critics' right to choose," she said. "At least someone still has the choice, unless they're a female critic and then it just depends on what state they live in." She also took aim at Nick Cannon, Prince Harry, and James Corden. "The cast of The Bear is here. Awesome show," she said. "They showed us how grueling and absolutely miserable working in the restaurant industry can be. And they didn't even have to wait on James Corden."

The big winners for the evening were Better Call Saul, Abbott Elementary, and The Dropout for television, and Everything Everywhere All at Once for film. Everything Everywhere All at Once took home Best Picture, while Brendan Fraser took home Best Actor for his role in The Whale, tearing up during his acceptance speech.

The Best Supporting Actor and Actress categories for television were awarded in pairs, with Jennifer Coolidge and Giancarlo Esposito accepting the awards for drama, Niecy Nash-Betts and Paul Walter Hauser winning the limited series or made for TV movie awards, and Sheryl Lee Ralph and Henry Winkler taking home the comedy awards. Nash-Betts gave an emotional acceptance speech, during which she thanked her mother for working overtime so that she could take drama classes. Jennifer Coolidge encouraged fans to never give up: "I hope this gives you the inspiration. It's not over till it's over. It's not over till you're dead," she said.

Presenter Seth Rogen questioned the choice to give out two awards at a time—and then didn't hold back when it came to criticizing The CW. "I'm not saying the CW is bad. What I will say, it is the one network to receive zero Critics Choice nominations — you are saying it's bad," he said. "We're on your least favorite network. How did that happen? Nominate yourselves next time, you'd have won. No one will think it's weird, they'll think it's fine." Rogen added, "I might be the first Jew on the CW in history. Soak it in."

The night's presenters included Quinta Brunson, Cedric the Entertainer, Aubrey Plaza, Kerry Washington, Troy Kotsur, Sarah Hyland, Jeremy Allen White, Sharon Horgan, Miles Teller, Anna Taylor Joy, Henry Golding, and more.

Beginning her acceptance speech, Monae said that her pronouns are "she/her, they/them and free-ass m-----f----r." She commented on how her family has influenced her choice to play marginalized characters. "My mother was a janitor, my father was a trash man, and my grandmother was a sharecropper in Aberdeen, Mississippi," she said, adding, "And it's personal because I am non-binary, I am queer, and my identity influences my decisions and my work."

John Goodman presented his Big Lebowski costar Jeff Bridges with the Lifetime Achievement Award, calling him a "legend" and introducing a compilation of Bridges' numerous roles over the years—including his first major role in the 1971 film The Last Picture Show. During his acceptance speech, Bridges shared that it was his father Llyod Bridges' birthday, and that he was wearing his cufflinks to the event. "I wouldn't be up here without my dad," he said. Later, he shared that he had to look at his IMDB to remember his roles over the years. "Looking at those pictures I've got to admit I checked out IMDB to look at my stuff, to prepare for the night. I said wow. I've made a lot of movies!"

The couple was together for several years despite a 21-year-age gap.  The Little Women star told the magazine, “We weren’t in anyone’s faces. It was just that people didn’t like it.

And I think I was in a relationship that didn’t do any of that.”

They split in 2022 after living together during the Covid-19 pandemic, and she still referred to the garden and the kitchen they once shared together as “her garden” and “her kitchen.” The Black Widow actress added, “It’s all very new.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Pugh addressed the controversy surrounding the sheer pink Valentino dress she wore last July.  She said, “If I’m happy in it, then I’m gonna wear it.  Of course, I don’t want to offend people, but I think my point is: How can my nipples offend you that much??”
