Ready Player One Wins The Box Office By Bringing In One Of Easter Weekend's Biggest Openings EVER!

Posted: 01 Apr 2018 03:45 PM PDT

This weekend was a BIG one for Ready Player One, marking director Steven Spielberg's biggest opening in more than a decade!

The Warner Bros. movie took in a nationwide $41.2 million over the Easter holiday weekend in its first full weekend out in theaters -- making it the Easter holiday's BIGGEST opening EVER for a non-sequel!

Not only that, but when you include the four-day totals from the longer weekend with last Thursday, since Ready Player One launched a day early, you get a grand four-day total of $53.2 million -- already much better than expected for the Spielberg flick!

It isn't a moneymaker yet, of course -- the film's hefty production budget of $175 million before marketing will weigh it down for quite a while -- but it fared very well in theaters this weekend all things considered.

Overseas, Ready Player One did more than $128 million in total -- including about $61.7 million from China alone -- to open to a grand total global debut of $181.2 million through the first weekend in total. WOW!!!

That makes it Spielberg's biggest movie (and biggest domestic opening) since Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull took in an opening $100.1 million more than a decade ago.

This also gives Ready Player One the second-biggest opening of the year so far behind Black Panther -- not bad company in which to find oneself!!!

Falling in behind the popular new release this weekend were Tyler Perry's Acrimony, which took second place with just over $17 million at the box office.

Another new release disappointed quite a bit -- religious-themed God's Not Dead 3 finished in twelfth at the box office this week, which was WAY below expectations, taking in just $2.6 million from 1,693 theaters nationwide.

What about y'all, Perezcious readers!? What'd U go see in theaters this weekend?

Melissa McCarthy Worked Hard On MAJOR Weight Loss For A New Movie Role!

Posted: 01 Apr 2018 02:57 PM PDT

Surprise! Melissa McCarthy has lost a TON of weight!

The famous Bridesmaids actress is turning in a very new direction with her next career project, a film coming out in October called Can You Ever Forgive Me?, and part of the difference comes in what we'll all see on screen: a much thinner Melissa!

The talented actress is playing a down-and-out author who turns to crime to pay the bills in this movie (set to open on the 19th of October), and to make it happen for the part, McCarthy lost a whopping 75 pounds!!!

Of course, she downplays the whole thing.

In the past, she has said about her weight and general health and fitness (below):

"I'll be up, I'll be down, probably for the rest of my life. The thing is, if that is the most interesting thing about me, I need to go have a lavender farm in Minnesota and give this up. If I, off the top of my head, name 20 of the most amazing women in my life, it's all shapes, sizes, ages, colours, jobs. I can only go off my reality. What people pass off as 'normal', I just have to keep in my head that it's bullshit."

Well then!!

Ch-ch-check out the trailer to her new movie set to come out in six months (below):

Looks inneresting!!

And she looks SOOOO different, doesn't she?!

New Tell-All Book Reveals Meghan Markle Abruptly Ended Her First Marriage 'Out Of The Blue'

Posted: 01 Apr 2018 01:59 PM PDT

A new tell-all book is out detailing a LOT about the pre-royal family Meghan Markle, and the more the public finds out about her, the more controversy that seems to keep popping up in headlines all over the world!

Author Andrew Morton -- Princes Diana's biographer, coincidentally -- has been releasing excerpts from his book Meghan, A Hollywood Princess, and this weekend, The Sunday Times picked up a damning section that details the end of Markle's first marriage!

Related: Meghan Has Been Rocking Easter Sunday Style All Year Round!

As you may know, Meghan married Hollywood producer Trevor Engelson back in 2011, but when her career started to take off with Suits less than two years later, things change VERY quickly.

Morton writes in the excerpt that Meghan and Trevor thought "the sacrifice was going to be worth it" with their two busy schedules, but very quickly after tying the knot, things turned sour -- for Meghan.

That's right! According to the excerpt, the looming end of the marriage was "totally out of the blue" for poor Trevor, who never saw it coming, per the book and Morton's sources.

The author continues, describing Trevor's changed emotions and Meghan's quick separation (below):

"Trevor went from cherishing Meghan to, as one friend observed, 'feeling like he was a piece of something stuck to the bottom of her shoe.'"

Yikes!!! Not a great look for Markle...

5 Things You Probably Never Knew About Easter!

Easter may be one of the most important holidays on the Christian calendar, but you don't have to be obsessed with Jesus to appreciate it!

Because even before that whole biblical resurrection thing, the holiday was practiced by many ancient cultures as a celebration of Spring and renewal.

For those who aren't the least bit spiritual, it's cool -- this day can be used to worship a deity we all know and love: chocolate!

Celebrate the holiday with these 5 fast Easter facts (above)!

Taylor Swift Gives Surprise Performance Where It All Started At Nashville's Bluebird Cafe — Highlights HERE!

Posted: 01 Apr 2018 10:43 AM PDT

This is so cool!

Taylor Swift has been keeping a relatively low profile as of late while preparing for her stadium tour, but on Saturday night, she decided to have a little fun -- and play a very intimate venue that has HUGE significance for her career!

Photos: All Of Tay's Exes & The Songs She Wrote About Them!

The world-famous Delicate singer joined country songwriter Craig Wiseman for a performance at the Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, Tennessee -- the very place Swift was first discovered by record exec Scott Borchetta of Big Machine Label Group so many years ago!

The superstar kept it nice and tight for a small group of fans as the cafe celebrated its 35th anniversary, and Swift was there to take in the party, telling everyone (below):

"I wanted to say a big thank you to the Bluebird Cafe. I think any songwriter in town would echo my sentiments and say that this is kind of the only place where this exists — this particular place where you get to come and hear the writer's take on the songs they've put out into the world."

Amen!!

Ch-ch-check out some of the highlights (below)!!!

Awww! So fun!

Always nice to get back to where it all started -- so many memories!

Surprise! Kate Middleton Makes Easter Sunday Service Appearance Just Days Before Due Date — Look At That Precious Baby Bump!

Posted: 01 Apr 2018 09:21 AM PDT

So classy -- and so cute!

Kate Middleton is very much pregnant, and weeks (or maybe days!!) away from her due date to bring her third child into the world, but that didn't stop her from making a surprise public appearance on Sunday morning at an Easter Service in St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle!

Related: William And Kate Are REALLY Prepared For Baby No. 3!

The Duchess of Cambridge, who is due later this month, stood proudly alongside Prince William for the Easter Service, as you can see (above)!

The happy couple arrived there for the service to join much of the royal family, including William's grandmother Queen Elizabeth II, although 96-year-old Prince Philip was absent, at least from public view.

Kate sported a black Catherine Walker coat for the event, and looked stunning and sophisticated with the help of some sparkling Balenciaga earrings, a pair of nude pumps, and a black Lock & Co Betty Boop hat.

You can see the full outfit — and Prince William's full navy suit — below:

So gorgeous!

Days from her due date, and Kate still has it all together in the classiest, simplest ways.

Goals!!!

Happy SeXXXy Easter! Celebs Who've Dressed Up As Playboy Bunnies!

Posted: 01 Apr 2018 08:30 AM PDT

We can't believe it's already the first Easter without Hugh Hefner.

We mean, the late media mogul essentially made the seXXXy rabbit a staple in pop culture. Still, it appears that Mr. Hefner's legacy is destined to live on. Not only have countless A-listers dressed up as the iconic Playboy bunny in the past, but they still do to this day.

Case in point, Kim Zolciak-Biermann donned a sultry bunny look for '17 Halloween -- with husband Kroy Biermann dressed as Hugh himself. Awwwww.

In honor of Easter, here are the other celebs who've worn Playboy bunny costumes. ENJOY!!
