Robbie Coltrane, who played the giant Hagrid in the “Harry Potter” movies, died Friday. He was 72. There’s no word on the cause of death, but he had reportedly been ill for the past few years. Before “Harry Potter” made him a household name, he played Valentin Zukovsky in the James Bond movies “GoldenEye” and “The World Is Not Enough”. “Potter” star Daniel Radcliffe issued a statement saying, quote, “Robbie was one of the funniest people I’ve met and used to keep us laughing constantly as kids on the set . . . I feel incredibly lucky that I got to meet and work with him and very sad that he’s passed. He was an incredible actor and a lovely man.” Emma Watson said, quote, “Robbie was like the most fun uncle I’ve ever had, but most of all, he was deeply caring and compassionate towards me as a child and an adult . . . Robbie, if I ever get to be so kind as you were to me on a film set, I promise I’ll do it in your name and memory.” Rupert Grint added, quote, “I’ll never forget the smell of cigars and beard glue, a wonderful combination . . . A giant hearted man who was still looking out for us even decades later.” And J.K. Rowling said Robbie was, quote, “an incredible talent, a complete one off, and I was beyond fortunate to know him, work with him and laugh my head off with him.”
Harrison Ford might finally be joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The word is that he’s been tapped to play General Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross in some upcoming films. Ross has been played by William Hurt up to now, but he died this past March. This is still unofficial, but several sources claim Ford will play Ross in “Captain America: New World Order”, and then “Thunderbolts”, where he oversees an anti-hero team sort of like the “Suicide Squad”. In the comics, Thunderbolt Ross becomes a character called Red Hulk . . . but there’s no word if that’s happening in the MCU.

Chevy Chase is on the latest episode of Bill Maher’s “Club Random” podcast. And he revealed that John Belushi once stole his cocaine when they were on “Saturday Night Live” together. He said, quote, “I had a little jar of cocaine with a little spoon that hung from it. I had it on the piano of the stage. So I’m just playing the piano, the crowd isn’t in yet, and it’s just sitting. After I played just a little bit, it’s gone. I had no idea how. “Obviously I was looking at my hands at the moment that John swooped in and took it. So I immediately said, ‘Belushi, did you take my coke?’ ‘No, what are you talking about?'” A month later, Chevy went to John’s apartment, and saw his vial, empty and washed, sitting on a bookshelf.
Time for another celebrity to bag on Bill Murray. This time, it’s Seth Green on a recent podcast. He says when he was a kid, he was going to be on an “SNL” skit and at some point he got into it with Bill Murray. (He later said that Eddie Murphy came to console him, because he left the room crying.)
“Days of Our Lives” moved from NBC to the Peacock streaming service last month . . . and dove straight into the GUTTER. Last Thursday’s episode featured the first THREE-WAY in the history of daytime TV. If it matters to you, the characters involved were Allie Horton, Chanel Dupree, and the very lucky Alex Kiriakis. Well, you might want to check on Grandma, because chances are she is NOT okay. A lot of longtime viewers who somehow know how to navigate social media have been complaining. Here are some of their comments:
- “DAYS of our Lives is disgusting now!! I have watched for over 40 years. I didn’t know it could get any more disgusting but now they have young people having threesomes! No wonder our country [is] spiraling out of control.”
- “Today’s episode was disgusting. Days has gone too far with the Allie, Chanel, Alex storyline. This is obscene. I’m done!”
- “Well today’s show with the threesome was the last straw. I’ve been trying to stay with the show because I have watched it since I was a kid and I’m 59, so a long time. But I’m done. This is just too much and I don’t support their views anymore. It’s so sad but the move to Peacock is going to be the end of the show for the long timers. Makes me mad they took it away from us. Bye Days.”
- “I’m really shocked and highly disappointed in Days bringing on a threesome. It’s an all-time low for me for Days to be so desperate to do this. Where do you draw the line, writers?”
Ice Cube says some heavy hitters are trying to take out his BIG3 league. Former NBA player, podcaster, and BIG3 coach Stephen Jackson tweeted a video encouraging fans to support the league that features former NBA greats. Cube retweeted the post and added some salt to the recipe. He wrote, “Appreciate you @DaTrillStak5. We definitely need everybody’s support. The @nba and @espn are doing everything in their powers to ignore or destroy @thebig3.” Cube didn’t cite any examples, but it’s not the first time he accused the NBA of not being BIG3-friendly. In a 2020 interview, Cube said, “The NBA hasn’t been the nicest to the BIG3. Of course, publicly, they say all the right words. But we know privately, there’s things done behind the scenes [with] sponsors, broadcasters, blah blah blah… It did tarnish my fandom a bit.”

Last week TMZ said that Brandy – the R&B singer – was hospitalized after a possible seizure at her home in Los Angeles. Sources said EMTs were sent to Brandy’s house around noon last Tuesday. On Wednesday, Brandy posted an update on her condition on social media. She wrote, “To my beloved fam, friends, and starz thank you for sending love and light my way.

Some Blink-182 fans got their first taste of Ticketmaster’s new “dynamic pricing” model while trying to score tickets to the upcoming reunion tour. And not surprisingly, they don’t like it. Mark Hoppus actually issued a statement trying to mitigate the damage. He said, quote, “Yes I understand that the ticketing can be frustrating. I bought tickets for two of our shows myself just to see what the experience was like. I had tickets yoinked from my cart and the whole thing crash out. Dynamic pricing. I’m not in charge of it. It’s meant to discourage scalpers. We’re trying to bring you the best possible show for the best price. This is a tour celebrating new music and the band getting back together. Thank you for your enthusiasm and I hope to see all of you at the shows.”
After hosting “Saturday Night Live” and being her own musical guest, Megan Thee Stallion is taking a break. Before the show on Saturday, she went live and said, quote, “Hotties I’m really sorry but after SNL I really gotta take a break I’m so tired, physically and emotionally.” This may have something to do with it: On Thursday night, while she was in New York rehearsing for “SNL”, Megan’s house in L.A. was ROBBED. Two men broke a glass door and stole between $300,000 and $400,000 worth of jewelry, cash, and electronics. Cops have surveillance video, but they haven’t arrested anyone yet. Megan Tweeted, quote, “Material things can be replaced but I’m glad everyone is safe.”

A website called Crossword Solver has determined what actor has dropped the most F-bombs in his . . . or her . . . career. And believe it or not, it’s NOT Samuel L. Jackson.
It’s Joe Pesci, who’s said the F-word 272 times in his various movies. But check this out: 241 of those were from a single movie: “Casino”. Al Pacino is second, with 197 . . . followed by Jason Mewes of Jay & Silent Bob fame and Jonah Hill with 183 apiece . . . Leonardo DiCaprio with 144 . . . and Seth Rogen with 140. As for Mr. Jackson, he only made it to 20th place on the list with a meager 85, if you can believe that. They didn’t just stop at the F-bomb. They also determined the actors who said the S-word and Hell the most. Denzel Washington is king of the S-word, with 84. Most of them were in “Training Day”, not surprisingly. He’s followed by Jason Mewes and Seth Rogen with 80 each . . . Shia LaBeouf with 79 . . . and Ben Affleck and Sam Jackson with 58 each.
Hell isn’t as popular as the other two, but Al Pacino has used it 49 times, which is the record. Leo is second with 39 . . . followed by Dennis Quaid with 38 . . . Keanu Reeves with 36 . . . and Robert Duvall with 33. One last quick note: Julia Roberts is out there fighting for a woman’s right to CURSE. She didn’t make the F-bomb list, but she’s got 40 S-words and 23 Hells. No other woman made any of the lists: (read full article at Crossword-Solver)
