The biggest show on television has officially lost its biggest star. Sunday night marked the return of “Yellowstone” Season 5, almost two years to the day since the premiere of the current season. And this time around, it came back without Kevin Costner.
Ever since rumors started to swirl about Costner potentially leaving “Yellowstone,” there has been media speculation about a rivalry between the A-lister and series creator Taylor Sheridan. The truth — as is often the case — is a bit more dull than anything going on at the Dutton ranch.
Here’s why Kevin Costner left Paramount Network’s beloved show.
Why did Kevin Costner leave “Yellowstone”?
It simply came down to career desires and scheduling technicalities for Costner. During a profile for GQ, Costner was effusive in his praise for the show, revealing that he re-negotiated his original three-season “Yellowstone” deal to stay on the series for as many as seven seasons.

Charlie Sheen isn't exactly quiet about his opinions, for better or for worse. So, what does he think of "The Big Bang Theory?" Not a whole lot!
In a 2013 interview with The Guardian, the troubled nepo baby went off on Chuck Lorre's hit sitcom while simultaneously bragging about his own successes; as he told interviewer Emma Brockes, he thinks that his sitcom "Two and a Half Men," which also had Lorre at the helm, kickstarted the success of "The Big Bang Theory."
"You gotta think about the shows that my show launched. I should have added in a clause that said anything that uses me as a lead-in, cut me in." (In the article, Brockes notes that "The Big Bang Theory" was supposed to run after Sheen's post-"Two and a Half Men" project "Anger Management.") From there, Sheen continued to crap...

The Masked Singer is coming back, but there might be something missing. From all reports, it sounds like the Wild Cards will not return for Season 12. These are the special surprise contestants that join the show in addition to the main masked singers.
Here is what we know about the possible changes to the new season.
Is The Wild Card Going Away On The Masked Singer?
From the sound of it, The Masked Singer Season 12 might not have Wild Cards. These were the new masked performers that the show would bring in partway through the season. They were used as surprise entries and often shook things up in big, surprising moments.

Chess Piece, “The Masked Singer”

Days of Our Lives star Arianne Zucker has opened up about Donald Trump‘s 2005 interview with Access Hollywood, where a hot mic picked up the former president talking with host Billy Bush and making his infamous “grab ’em by the p***y” comment. Zucker appeared alongside Trump and Bush in the Access Hollywood tape, which was leaked by The Washington Post in October 2016, one month before the presidential election. In the video, Trump and Bush are heard having a lewd conversation about women, including Zucker. Appearing on the latest episode of Rachel Uchitel’s Miss Understood podcast, Zucker said of Trump, “He made a comment, I guess, about my legs, and so did Billy Bush. Everybody has spoken poorly about somebody in their lifetime. I don’t care who you are; everybody has. It’s just people get caught on camera doing it.” She continued, “Unfortunately, that happens all the time.

Former Days of Our Lives star Arianne Zucker, who is suing Ken Corday and former director/executive producer Albert Alarr for sexual harassment, has a very different recollection of the now infamous Access Hollywood tapes involving Donald Trump and Billy Bush.
In a recent conversation with Rachel Uchitel on her Miss Understood podcast, Zucker said she wasn’t personally offended by Trump’s taped comments that included the now infamous “Grab ’em by the pussy” line. Trump’s 2005 comments were recorded with Bush before he arrived on the set of Dool to shoot a cameo with Zucker.

Donald Trump Used Racial Slur on ‘The Apprentice’ Set and Other Revelations From Producer’s Tell-All
Twenty years after The Apprentice debuted on NBC, putting the catchphrase “You’re fired” on the nation’s lips and starring Donald Trump, the expansive nondisclosure agreements signed by its producers are beginning to expire. This week, one of the show’s top producers during seasons one and two is sharing previously unheard details — just as Trump’s 2024 bid to retake the White House kicks into high gear.
Bill Pruitt’s first-person telling of the early days of The Apprentice, which Slate published on Thursday, details how Trump and the team behind the NBC reality competition series “set about an American fraud that would balloon beyond its creators’ wildest imaginations.” Pruitt’s account has details akin to what many believe would have been found in the mythical “Apprentice tapes” — show outtakes and cut footage that were sought after by prosecutors during his presidency and even spawned a TV show that...

Update: Closing arguments in Donald Trump’s hush money trial ended tonight almost 11 hours after they began, with a prosecutor telling jurors that the former president’s “intent to defraud … could not be any clearer,” according to multiple news outlets.
Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Joshua Steinglass, wrapping just ahead of an 8 p.m. deadline set by Judge Juan Merchan, also ran into one last objection from the defense when he invoked a statement that Trump famously made a year before his inauguration as president: “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn’t lose voters.”
Merchan upheld the defense objection and Steinglass later moved on to thanking the jury for their time and attention. Six weeks after the first jury candidates walked into the lower Manhattan courtroom, they are expected to begin their deliberations on Wednesday after receiving Merchan’s instructions on the law.

When Nick asked Scott, “Who knew you could do what you do?” the actor replied, “Not even me until maybe tonight. I don’t have any legitimate training. I started singing on street corners in Orlando, Florida when I was going to high school. I auditioned for two straight years for Disney and couldn’t book a role.

Spoiler Alert: Details follow for Season 11, Episode 13 of “The Masked Singer,” “Finale: One Mask Takes It All,” which aired May 22 on Fox.
“The Masked Singer” winner Vanessa Hudgens admits she didn’t necessarily play the hiding game: At least among her friends and fans, they figured out it was her under the Goldfish costume rather quickly.
“Rita [Ora] guessed it was me straight from the jump,” Hudgens said. “But she’s also my friend. And we saw each other a few days before the first episode!”
Hudgens beat out Scott Porter, who had performed this season as Gumball, to win the “Masked Singer” trophy. Coincidentally, both Hudgens and Porter previously starred together in 2009’s “Bandslam.”
Despite their history, Hudgens said the production kept her completely in the dark as to who her competitors were. “I was so invested every step of the way,” she said. “I was trying really hard to...

Melissa and Joe have been happily married for almost two decades, but several other Bravo stars have been married much longer.
Karen Huger, Heather Dubrow, and Lisa Vanderpump are the first names that come to mind when discussing long-running marriages on Bravo.
However, if we’re talking about just Rhonj then yes Joe and Melissa take the crown for that.
Plus it’s the only title that Teresa Giudice can’t compete with her sister-in-law for, so that should count as a win in Melissa’s book.

Update: The lawyer for Karen McDougal and Stormy Daniels further outlined the hush money deals made to his clients, including his suspicion that Donald Trump was “the one” who ultimately funded the Daniels payoff.
Lawyer Keith Davidson said on Tuesday that he did not enjoy having to deal with Trump’s lawyer, Michael Cohen.
The tension went back to a hostile phone call in 2011 after a gossip site called TheDirty blogged about rumors of a sexual liaison between adult film star Daniels and Trump. “Before I could barely get my name out, I was met with a hostile barrage of insults and allegations,” Davidson testified in Trump’s hush-money trial in Manhattan.
Cohen was “just screaming,” Davidson said, and he accused Davidson’s clients, Daniels and her manager, Gina Rodriguez, of leaking the claim to TheDirty. “Finally, after he finished,” Davidson recalled, he assured Cohen that Daniels didn’t want the story publicized.

“Me wanting to be on the show was prompted from my family,” says Grammy-nominated R&b star Sisqo while discussing his time as Lizard on “The Masked Singer.” “They’re big fans of the show. And as it turns out, it seemed like once a season or every other season one of the judges would guess that whoever was masked was me. My family was like, ‘They keep guessing it’s you, when you just gonna go on there?'” Watch his exclusive video interview with Gold Derby senior editor Denton Davidson above.
As Lizard, Sisqo sang “Bring Me to Life” by Evanescense on “Shower Anthems Night.” After receiving the least amount of votes in the Group C final, he was forced to “take it off” and reveal himself. Panelists Robin Thicke and Rita Ora were right on the money, guessing Sisqo’s identity based on that unmistakable tone. Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg...

The Group C final took place on “The Masked Singer” Wednesday night, with Lizard going home in third place after belting out “Bring Me to Life” by Evanescence. Clock and Poodle Moth advanced to the “Shower Anthems Night” Battle Royal, where Clock prevailed but judges Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg, Ken Jeong and Rita Ora used the season’s one and only “Ding Dong Keep it On” bell to save Poodle Moth. While those two contestants advanced to the quarterfinals, Lizard was left to unmask, revealing Grammy-nominated singer Sisqo.
“My family loves the show,” he told host Nick Cannon during his unmasked interview. “Every time we saw a season everybody would always say, ‘Hey! That’s gotta be Sisqo!’ So when I got an opportunity to do it I seized it and it’s been really fun.” He added that during the smackdowns “the Lizard had to embody the spirit of the Dragon.
