Not much is known about JOHN KRASINSKI’s next movie “If” . . . but we do know it’ll be a mini “Office” reunion of sorts, because STEVE CARELL has joined the cast. This is the first time they’ll be working together since the series.  John’s, quote, “dream cast” will also include RYAN REYNOLDS, PHOEBE WALLER-BRIDGE, FIONA SHAW, and LOUIS GOSSETT JR. “If” is an original story from John about a child’s journey to rediscover their imagination.  It’s due out November 17th, 2023.

SHAILENE WOODLEY and AARON RODGERS might be one of those few couples who disagree politically, but still make it work.  A source says they, quote, “disagree on a lot of things,” but they decided early on in the relationship to just NOT argue about them. 

The Cowboys’ season has ended, but Micah Parsons keeps collecting awards. This time, the dynamic linebacker has been named Rookie of the Year/Defensive Rookie of the Year by the Professional Football Writers of America.

As we hate to admit it, the pandemic did force us to look at the world differently . . . and perhaps learn a few things along the way. That’s exactly what happened to MIRANDA LAMBERT.  She tells “Rolling Stone”, quote, “It taught a lot of us that have been on the grind for 20 years that like, ‘Oh, there’s life out there?  What do you mean, NOT working?’ “It’s been a lesson of forced balance.  Like, ‘Alright, my tour is canceled, so now I’m going to paint.’  Or, my husband’s going to make bread and I’ll sit and watch.  It brought things back to super simple and [I’ve] never had that in my adult life.” And she’s taking that attitude on the Bandwagon Tour with Little Big Town, which launches in April.  Omicron or not.  Quote, “There will be constant changes.  Because we’re in control of nothing.  For people who are planners like me, I have to really find my inner Zen.”

ELTON JOHN had to postpone some shows because he tested positive for COVID.

  KACEY MUSGRAVES arrived early for tonight’s tour stop in Philadelphia.  Very early.  On Monday, she showed up at a piano bar called Tavern on Camac . . . and treated the nice folks to a little bit of Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams”.
