Donnie Wahlberg’s Boston Blue co-star teases role for his wife Jenny McCarthy on the show

Blue Bloods and Boston Blue have long had a presence in Jenny McCarthy‘s life, even if she’s never actually been on the show. Her husband Donnie Wahlberg has been starring as Danny Reagan for well over ten years now, first opposite Tom Selleck on Blue Bloods, which was cancelled in 2024. Now he has reprised the character for the spin-off Boston Blue, and his co-star Sonequa Martin-Green insists the former reality star has a role in it. © Getty ImagesDonnie has played Danny since 2010 Speaking with Us Weekly, Sonequa, who stars as Donnie’s police partner Lena Silver, first gave insight into her and her husband Kenric Green’s close bond with Donnie and Jenny. “I’m always texting with Jenny and Donnie’s always texting with Kenric.

‘Wednesday’ Season 3 Adds Lena Headey, Andrew McCarthy and James Lance

‘Wednesday’ Season 3 Adds Lena Headey, Andrew McCarthy and James Lance

The Addams Family is growing. On Thursday, Netflix revealed a trio of new guest stars for Wednesday season three, including another alum from the Game of Thrones universe. Lena Headey (Game of Thrones), Andrew McCarthy (St. Elmo’s Fire) and James Lance (Ted Lasso) have joined the madness — production on the smash-hit show’s third season is currently underway near Dublin. We do not yet have a sense of premiere timing — let alone a release date — for Wednesday season three. There’s also not much of a predictable pattern to guesstimate off of: Wednesday season one debuted over Thanksgiving week in 2022, which definitely paid off for Netflix. Season two was split into two parts with the first batch dropping in early August 2025 and the second in early September. It stands to reason that Netflix will go with another split season — a trick to keep churn rates down. Previously announced season three cast members include Eva Green (Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children), Winona Ryder (Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice), Chris Sarandon (Dog Day Afternoon), Noah …

Tina Fey, Jonah Hill, Melissa McCarthy Join Jack Black SNL Monologue

Jack Black is back on Saturday Night Live — and he has officially joined the Five-Timers club! The Super Mario Galaxy Movie star kicked off his hosting monologue by addressing that it was his fifth time hosting the sketch comedy series, before he was joined by a starry lineup of guests who, too, have hosted the show (at least) five times. “I am so thrilled to be back hosting SNL for the fifth time. It’s a huge honor to join the Five-Timers club,” he said. “I’m a five-timer!” Black was first joined by his Don’t Worry, He Won’t Get Far on Foot co-star Jonah Hill, who was sporting a Five-Timers robe. “It is so good to see you. What have you been up to, man?” Black said, to which Hill joked, “Well, I’ve actually been working on Superbad 2!” The two walked through a door to the Five-Timers lounge, which prompted Hill to tell Black, “Jack, we need your help. There’s something wrong with the Five-Timers Club. You see what I mean?” “Yes, you’re right, …

Jenny McCarthy reveals cause of gruesome mystery illness that led to eye growths and teeth decay

Stay ahead of the curve with our weekly guide to the latest trends, fashion, relationships and more Stay ahead of the curve with our weekly guide to the latest trends, fashion, relationships and more Stay ahead of the curve with our weekly guide to the latest trends, fashion, relationships and more Jenny McCarthy has revealed the mysterious illness that left her with “oozing” eye growths and tooth decay. The Masked Singer judge, 53, said she went through six months of “living hell” due to a medical mystery until she was diagnosed with mycotoxin poisoning — also known as toxic mold. “The last time I was here, I was literally on my way to the biological dentist because I had gone through six months of living hell,” McCarthy said on Tuesday’s episode of Maria Menounos’ Heal Squad podcast. “I had an infected root canal. What wound up happening was it didn’t get cleaned out all the way.” McCarthy said that she underwent several surgeries as she tried to figure out the source of her symptoms, which …

The McCarthy Revivalists – The Atlantic

The McCarthy Revivalists – The Atlantic

For decades, Senator Joseph R. McCarthy’s name has been used as shorthand for the opposite of the aspirational ideal of civilized American politics. In the way that Kleenex has become interchangeable with tissue, McCarthyism, for many, is an eponym for the unjust, reprehensible use of political power. Indicating that anything resembled the tactics and smears of the late senator from Wisconsin has been enough to suggest that such behavior was out of bounds, with no rightful place in our modern politics. But now comes a small, influential group of hard-line right-wingers who believe that, in the words of one popular meme in such circles, McCarthy was right. McCarthyite revivalism has flitted around the edges of American conservatism since the senator fell from grace during his conspiratorial anti-Communist campaign in the 1950s. In 1954, the conservative patron saint William F. Buckley Jr. and his friend and fellow conservative thinker L. Brent Bozell Jr. defended the senator in their book, McCarthy and His Enemies, as a sometimes-misguided figure unfairly maligned for his justified quest to root out …

Is Paul McCarthy the Most Dangerous Artist in LA?

Is Paul McCarthy the Most Dangerous Artist in LA?

When I arrived at Paul McCarthy’s East LA studio surrounded by warehouses and chop shops, a freight train on the nearby Union Pacific tracks rumbled by with Amazon-branded intermodal containers stacked on flatcars, destined for cargo vessels at the Port of Long Beach. Freight trains, I thought, make good background noise for an artist who dredges up the dark pangs of the American id. Plus, McCarthy once made a sculpture of a train, of sorts. In a press release for a show at the late Robert Mnuchin’s L&M Arts, it was described thusly: “Train, Mechanical (2003–2010) is a fully automated tour-de-force that features a George Bush/pirate hybrid mounting a pig from behind, while another pig humps the same pig’s skull, finding aural penetration.” Inside the studio, McCarthy was hunched over an editing bay, tinkering with footage, in an office space above the enormous facility that houses his sculptures and the film sets—the same sets that have served as backdrops for his violent, strange, disturbing, hilarious films. He offered to give me a tour with his …

Melissa McCarthy is unrecognizable in Super Bowl ad – see her incredible transformation

Melissa McCarthy transformed for her latest role in the upcoming Super Bowl ad for E.l.f. Cosmetics, with the star donning a dramatic wig and a shimmering gold gown for the telenovela-inspired project. The 55-year-old looked incredible in the outfit, which was made of a metallic material and featured long sleeves and a thin belt that cinched in her waist. She accessorized with an eye-catching gold necklace, gold bangles and dangling gold earrings, and wore the voluminous brunette wig with cascading curls and a side part. The clip sees Melissa racing to learn Spanish for the Super Bowl Halftime Show, ahead of Puerto Rican mega-star Bad Bunny’s performance on February 9. In the ad, she crashes her car, wakes up in the hospital, and begins to learn Spanish with the help of her doctor, played by Nicholas Gonzalez (The Good Doctor, La Brea), and the latest e.l.f. product. With enough applications of the product, Melissa becomes fluent in the language, causing a jealous outburst from a nurse, played by telenovela icon Itatí Cantoral (Humble Maria, Hasta …

McCarthy: You’ll ‘have a short shutdown,’ but ‘no one would really feel that’

Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R) said there will be a “short shutdown” after a major funding package failed to advance in the Senate on Thursday.  Democratic senators blocked the funding package, demanding that funds included for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) be stripped. Democrats say they cannot support funding for DHS amid the… Source link

Jenny McCarthy issues scathing four-word response when asked if she’d return to The View

Get the latest entertainment news, reviews and star-studded interviews with our Independent Culture email Get the latest entertainment news with our free Culture newsletter Get the latest entertainment news with our free Culture newsletter Don’t expect Jenny McCarthy to return to The View anytime soon. McCarthy, 53, joined the daytime talk show in 2013 following a cast shake-up that included the departures of Joy Behar (who later returned) and Elisabeth Hasselbeck. However, her tenure was short-lived as she departed the following year. Asked if she’d ever consider a return on Tuesday’s episode of The Katie Miller Podcast, McCarthy said that while she’s been asked back for reunion specials, she has no intention to retake her place at the roundtable. “Over my dead body,” she quipped. Opening up more about her time on the show, McCarthy recalled being brought in alongside co-hosts Barbara Walters, Whoopi Goldberg, and Sherri Shepherd because the show was “too polarizing” at the time. She said she thought her job was to discuss reality TV and other “fluffy” topics, avoiding political chat. …
