Three things irrevocably changed the American population during the pandemic. One, over 1.1 million people died, leaving gaping holes in families and communities. Two, people?s lives were ripped apart by long covid and the longterm effects of covid infections, which we still don?t completely understand. We basically have a not-insignificant part of the population still dealing with health issues years after their covid infections. Three, we learned that millions of people living in America are absolute morons who hate and don?t understand science, vaccines and public health. Evangeline Lilly showed her ass during the pandemic and it?s never been the same for her since. In the early days of the pandemic, she arrogantly declared that quarantines are bullsh-t and ?freedom? is more important than any public health measure. Then she went to that bonkers anti-vaxx rally and came out in support of ?bodily sovereignty? against vaccine mandates. She did and said all of that while under contract with Marvel. Well, I guess her contract is up and she understands that she?s done irreversible harm to her career, because Evangeline is quitting the biz.
Evangeline Lilly announced on Instagram that she has stepped away from Hollywood for the foreseeable future and ?might return one day.? Lilly, best known for playing Kate Austen in ABC?s drama series ?Lost,? re-shared a video recorded in 2006 in which she expressed her desire to be a ?retired actress? by the next decade.
?Ten years from now, where would I like to be? I am terrified to admit this to the rest of the acting world but ideally 10 years from now I?d like to be a retired actress and have a family,? Lilly said in the video. ?I?d like to be writing and influencing people?s lives in humanitarian ways.?
In her caption to the video posted June 3, 2024, Lily writes: ?I am so filled with joy and contentment today as I live out my vision. Praise God, I feel so grateful for my blessings. Stepping away from what seems like the obvious choice (wealth and fame) can feel scary at times, but stepping into your dharma replaces the fear with fulfillment. I might return to Hollywood one day, but, for now, this is where I belong.?

Pre-pandemic, Evangeline was known as a granola-hippie type who eschewed the fame machine of Hollywood for the most part. Like, she never really capitalized on all of the buzz she got from Lost, and that genuinely was her choice back then. This current move is not completely her choice though Marvel was not happy that several of their stars were such idiots during the pandemic. Evangeline wasn?t a big enough star for her career to weather her own stupidity. Sidenote: I dont think she really had the talent for career longevity either, but whatever.

Last month, Demi Moore was one of the biggest names at the Cannes Film Festival. She was promoting The Substance (which got pretty good reviews) and partying at the festival. She was also one of the big-name attendees at the Cannes amfAR gala. Just after Cannes, Joe Jonas and his bros were in Monte Carlo for the Monaco Grand Prix. Meaning, Demi Moore and Joe Jonas were in the same general vicinity around the same time. Weirdly enough, there are photos of Demi and Joe having lunch together at the infamous Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc, and Page Six claims that something might be happening?
Demi Moore is continuing her ?Demi-sance? with a flirty new friendship with Joe Jonas, sources tell Page Six. The 61-year-old actress ? who stole the show at Cannes Film Festival with a series of attention-getting red-carpet looks ? met the 34-year-old singer while in the South of France last month, according to insiders.
?Demi and Joe have struck up a friendship. They have mutual friends and they bonded,? one well-placed source told us of the pair, who were seen having lunch together at the exclusive Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Antibes, France.
While one insider told us that things were already getting romantic, the well-placed source was quick to dispel any rumors of hanky-panky.
Moore ? whose new horror film, ?The Substance,? was all the buzz at Cannes ? hosted the amfAR gala during the festival, where Joe made a surprise appearance onstage alongside his brother Nick. While Nick, 31, was scheduled to perform at the event, it was the addition Joe for his band DNCE?s hit ?Cake by the Ocean? that got the crowd out of their seats. Moore was seen dancing with Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh during the song. Moore was later spotted dining with Joe, his brother Kevin and supermodel Heidi Klum. We?re told that Joe is also friends with Moore?s stylist Brad Goreski and her manager Jason Weinberg.
The new friendship comes on the heels of Joe?s break-up with model Stormi Bree, after five months of dating, as Page Six confirmed last month. ?He?s been busy working on his solo album,? a source told Page Six at the time.
Joe has been sharing photos from his vacation at the luxurious One&Only Portonovi resort in Montenegro in the Balkans, while Moore was last seen over the weekend in Vienna, Austria, at Cartier?s High Jewelry masquerade ball.

While Demi is beautiful and interesting and I totally believe she could still pull much younger men, I don?t think Joe Jonas would be into it. He seems to like much younger women. He?s a big age-gap guy. But I?m curious about how they struck up a friendship and what they even have to talk about. While I believe that Joe is probably single these days, his next girlfriend is going to be under the age of 25, you can put money on that.

| | Cheryl Burke issues warning about married people competing on DWTS | | Added 169 days ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Back in April, Dancing with the Stars? Cheryl Burke went on T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach?s podcast and confirmed that she?s had relationships with three of her celebrity contestant partners. She only named one, however, and that?s former NFL player Chad Ochocinco, with whom she competed in Season 10. I admit, DWTS fell off my radar ages ago, and I somehow missed that Season 32 aired last fall! Well now, Cheryl is spilling some more tea about the emotional toll that filming DWTS can take on the contestants and their dance partners. On her podcast, Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans, Cheryl talked about how ?intimate? and ?vulnerable? teams have to get while rehearsing and competing. Her advice? It?s not a competition for married people.
Cheryl Burke has participated in 26 out of the 32 seasons of Dancing With the Stars, so she?s definitely an expert when it comes to the show.
The 40-year-old pro dancer is explaining why she thinks all celeb contestants should be single if they decide to do the show and why it?s dangerous for married stars to compete. Cheryl herself has had three romantic relationships with her celeb partners and there have been plenty of couples formed on the show. Six of them are still together today!
So, why should all contestants be single?
?Be single if you do ?Dancing With the Stars.? That?s all I?m saying,? Cheryl said on the latest episode of her podcast, Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans.
?It?s an arranged marriage,? she said. ?And it is black and white. Either love each other or hate each other for real.?
?You?re not like, ?Oh yeah, he?s cute. Like, no, no, I either like you or I don?t because you?re constantly [together] eight hours a day, seven days a week,? she added. ?That?s insane. For three months? And you?re vulnerable?
Cheryl revealed that one married contestant once had a crush on their married pro partner, and while nothing happened between them, there was suspicion in the family.
?It?s so intimate, and you?re stuck with this person. Like, you better try and make it work at least,? she said. ?You get close in so many ways. These celebrities are so vulnerable because in order to succeed you have to strip it all down. And that alone? I bet you most of these married celebrities have never even done that with their wives.?

I get what Cheryl is saying, but I don?t know if she?s being tongue in cheek or actually thinks the show is ripe for infidelity or emotional affairs. Still, it?s something interesting to think about, the bond that dancing partners form while rehearsing and performing on a reality TV competition. On the other hand, people form strong bonds with coworkers all the time and that doesn?t necessarily translate into an affair. I?m sure Cheryl?s seen a lot of gossipy sh-t during her time on the show, though. And I?m sure a lot more has gone down behind-the-scenes than she?s saying publicly. Season 33 of DWTS airs in September. Although it?s not fully confirmed, here?s the rumored cast list.
