Celebrity Status – The Voice Champ, Cate Plays Martha, And Syd For Short(s)

For Wednesday, April 15th:

Sydney Sweeney is partnering with American Eagle for a new ad campaign, “Syd for Short” with a little wink at last year’s campaign controversy, this time exchanging her “great” jeans for sun-lit shorts. Sweeney also highlights the brand’s partnership with the Crisis Text Hotline, which will receive 100% of the profits for two of AE’s pieces.

Last night on The Voice, contestant Alexia Jayy was named the winner of The Voice: Battle of Champions, aka season 29. The 31-year-old from Mobile, Ala., was a member of coach Adam Levine’s team and impressed everyone with her take on Adele’s One and Only and Patti LaBelle’s “Lady Marmalade”

Dwayne Johnson and the Jumanji cast reunited at CinemaCon this week and revealed the title for the fourth film… Jumanji: Open World. “It’s the biggest of the franchise so far,” Johnson teased. He also paid emotional tribute to Robin Williams, saying none of it would have been possible without him.

Highlights from CinemaCon on day 2, Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya surprised fans with Dune: Part Three’s opening scene, Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman shared the first footage from the Practical Magic sequel , and J.J. Abrams unveiled his mysterious new movie ‘The Great Beyond’ with Glen Powell, Samuel L. Jackson and Jenna Ortega.

Cate Blanchett is rumored to play Martha Stewart in a biopic about the lifestyle maven — and that’s apparently a ‘Good Thing’. Martha seems to approve, making the casting announcement at a New York film screening yesterday… and yes, the title will be Good Thing, a reference to Martha’s famous catch phrase.
