But that doesn't mean he's at a loss for influences. The 35-year-old actor is just more of a diva devotee than a comedy acolyte. "It's a lot easier for me to answer that by saying Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, etc.," Rogers says. "It was really those types of personas that I was gravitating towards " even with my comedy." It was Carey, the queen of Christmas herself, who inspired Rogers to join the royal family of festiveness and cheekily anoint himself the prince of Christmas. That, at least, was the gag Rogers conceived of nearly a decade ago, when he saw an interviewer brazenly ask Carey about the joyful " and reliably annual " windfall that comes with owning the holiday season....

Nigerian, Korean, Chinese, Indian, Thai, European" I consume love stories like water, and at this point, I've earned my stripes as a romance connoisseur. I've seen every trope, every clich, every "will they/won't they, and every seasonal romance formula known to man. So when Omoni Oboli (actress, scriptwriter, director, producer, and YouTube royalty) dropped a new Christmas feel-good romance titled A Bride for the Season, my interest piqued immediately. This is, after all, the woman behind The First Lady, Wives on Strike, and the social-media-breaking Love in Every Word Parts 1 and 2, which collectively boast over 44 million views on YouTube. If anyone knows how to serve heart-fluttering romance to the Nigerian audience, it's Omoni. So I settled in, ready to judge, critique, smile, roll my eyes,…...

But as the cameras rolled, Wayans encountered difficulty pronouncing several names, including Swedish composer Ludwig G'ransson, nominated for his haunting score in Sinners, and Elle Fanning, recognized for her supporting role in Sentimental Value. Speaking with Variety hours after the broadcast, Wayans revealed a crucial detail that contextualizes his on-air challenges. The preparation time? A mere three minutes before going live. The actor joked that many nominees probably weren't even aware of their nominations yet, while acknowledging both his mistakes and the compressed timeline. The revelation raises questions about the production's approach to such a high-stakes moment in Hollywood's awards calendar.

1+ hour, 27+ min ago (1314+ words) Hollywood is still trying to court younger audiences but this year's crop of new comedies, from Adults to I Love LA, have yet to prove essentialThis year, despite not particularly liking the show nor wanting to, I have thought a lot about the opening scene to Adults. The FX half-hour comedy about a group of recent college graduates in New York begins, naturally, on the subway; what seems like an over-studied portrait of early adulthood intimacy " tangled limbs, in-group references, aggressively relaxed banter " quickly devolves into a standoff between a creepy subway masturbator and the group's instigator, Issa (Amita Rao), trying to out-masturbate him to make a wildly off point about feminism. "Is this the world you want?!?" she shouts at him, hand vigorously in pants.The moment is intentionally off-putting, perhaps too much so " I'm as ripe as anyone…...
