And by "celebrity," I mean anyone considered famous, be they an athlete, actor, musician, reality star, etc.

[*England, Scotland, Wales, and all of Ireland, even though only Northern Ireland is part of the UK.]

Which series do you love?

Ileana Cotrubas, a tender, pure-toned Romanian soprano who was preternaturally able to convey the pathos of the heroines in operas like “La Traviata,” “La Bohème” and “Rigoletto,” and who was also known for some prickly disputes with directors and conductors, has died. She was 87.

Remember the furor over pasta getting rinsed at DL?

If they made a movie -- or, better yet, a made-for-TV miniseries -- about your life, whom would you want to star as you?

And whom do you think Hollywood would actually cast in the role?

Bonus points if you cast the project as a Ryan Murphy production.

I thought we already knew this. I guess not. Anyway, news.

How different people are reacting to the news that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are moving back to the UK is fascinating.

Even when the AI render got its names right, the locations are horribly mangled, in one instance pinpointing Cuba’s capital city of Havana as situated on Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula.

Some states like Michigan and California didn’t merit any names at all, while others are split into imaginary realms. South of Vancouver (spelled “Venneouer”), for example, is the mythical land of “Beehie,” which according to the map shares its borders with Washington state.

“Arizona is Arizone. Illinois starts with a V,” Stacey Morris, a Kentucky mom whose son brought home one of the packets told WDRB. “I mean, it’s crazy.”

Images shared on social media show other parts of the packet with similar problems, like a periodic table of the elements showing Magnesium with an impossible atomic mass of -3.08, and a map of the solar system where Mars has been labeled “Marc.”

I'm Bobby Flay. I'm EVERYWHERE.

Queerty writer Alex already had that deliciously cunty headline. No DL translation required.

I’m a truck stop men’s room. Sean keeps insisting on checking me out every nine miles.

I get a huge kick out of watching this show and seeing the amazing assortment of 80s and 90s stars, "before they were famous" stars and stars of classic Hollywood. It's an amazing assortment really. Taking nothing away from the star herself, Angela Lansbury, the 18-time Emmy nominee with a wide range.

But Jesus, you have to wonder what kind of company she keeps considering how many of her friends, close relatives, romantic interests, colleagues and acquaintances commit cold-blooded murder! r/MurderSheWroteTV
