JULIA ROBERTS SPEAKS ON FAMOUS ARMPIT HAIR LOOK: Julia Roberts had one of the most talked-about red carpet moments in the past 20 years when she showed up for the premiere of Notting Hill in 1999 sporting full-on armpit hair. She appeared on Busy Philipps‘ Busy Tonight Sunday and claimed that, contrary to the host’s (and everyone else’s) assumption, it wasn’t a political statement. “I just hadn’t really calculated my sleeve length and the waving and how those two things would go together and reveal personal things about me,” explained Roberts. “So it wasn’t so much a statement, as it’s just part of the statement I make as a human on the planet, for myself.” (Vulture)
PETE DAVIDSON FACES BACKLASH OVER EYEPATCH ON SNL: Saturday Night Live comedian Pete Davidson is getting serious blowback over an eye patch he wore in a skit about a Republican war vet running for congress. “You may be surprised to learn he’s a congressional candidate from Texas and not a hitman in a porno movie,” Davidson said, alluding to his eye patch during a “Weekend Updates” segment. “I’m sorry – I know he lost his eye in war or whatever,” he chuckled. Crewnshaw, a retired Navy SEAL who lost his eye during Afghanistan tweeted: “Good rule in life: I try hard not to offend; I try harder not to be offended. That being said, I hope @nbcsnl recognizes that vets don’t deserve to see their wounds used as punchlines for bad jokes.” Do you think Davidson went too far, or was it fair game for a comedy show?

ANDREW LINCOLN TO REMAIN IN WALKING DEAD UNIVERSE: Rick Grimes’ story isn’t over yet, despite the airing of his “final” episode in the iconic AMC show Sunday night. The network has announced that Lincoln will star in multiple movies that will continue the story of his Walking Dead character; the first will begin production next year and explains where he went after taking off in a helicopter at the end of Sunday’s episode. “It’s not the beginning of the end, it’s the end of the beginning,” said Lincoln himself in a statement. “And I like the idea that we get to tell a bigger story, maybe with a sort of wider vista. And I’ve always been interested in what’s going on out there, you know, whether or not there is contact with the wider world. I want to know the meta of it all. And I suppose to be able to kind of touch upon that in a contained story for me is a very exciting proposition… Maybe it’s the start of a bigger story.” (E!)
KHLOE KARDASHIAN SPEAKS ON RELIVING TRISTAN THOMPSON CHEATING SCANDAL: This week’s episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians hit a little too close to home for Khloe. Sunday’s show documented the moment she found out that boyfriend Tristan Thompson was cheating on her, just days before she was due to give birth to their baby girl, True. She wrote on Instagram: “Tonight’s episode is an uncomfortable and super emotional one for me, but when we signed up for this show over a decade ago, we signed up for a reality show, which meant showing you guys inside our lives, the good, the bad and the ugly. To relive these moments all over again is incredibly difficult emotionally but I also hope that with every trail [sic], tribulation and curve ball life throws at us, that we ALL get to learn from our journeys.” Can you imagine reliving your worst moments on national TV?
