HOLLYWOOD HEADLINES

Rumor has it that Little Women actress and the star of Midsommar Florence Pugh [pr: pew] is the front-runner to play Madonna in the movie biopic. Florence can sing. She’s English, so she won’t need to fake Madonna’s fake British accent, either.

Shawn Mendes album Wonder debuted on top of the Billboard 200 chart. Next week, Taylor Swift takes that slot. Hits Daily Double predicts Evermore will move one-third of a million copies in its first week. She appears tonight on Jimmy Kimmel Live to promote her ninth studio album. (Hits Daily Double)

Miley Cyrus reverted back to her “bad girl” phase to promote her rock album, Plastic Hearts. She celebrated on social media the 10th anniversary of smashing her Disney-based Hannah Montana reputation. A “friend” leaked to TMZ a video of Miley sucking on a bong and getting stoned. (E! News)

NBA Hall of Famer Shaquille O’Neal wrote a flirty comment on Megan Thee Stallion’s Instagram. He complimented her curves (quote) “Watching that booty.” Shaq’s 20-year-old son visited the same post as dad. Then left a hilarious reaction video on TikTok. Shareef O’Neal wrote “I feel you, pops” and became the human embodiment of the eyes emoji. (Hollywood Life)
