Emilia Clarke
Emilia Clarke is opening up about her past near-fatal health struggles. In a new essay for
The New Yorker
,
titled
“A Battle For My Life,” Clarke reveals that she almost died while filming “Game of Thrones” after suffering two brain aneurysms that doctors warned her were potentially fatal. The first came after the first season in 2011, and the second in 2013 after the third season. But after multiple painful surgeries and long periods of recovery, she says she’s finally back at full strength.
Cardi B
Cardi B is once again making some big money moves. She just filed to trademark her popular catchphrase “Okurrr” to use on an upcoming line of products. Some of the merch you may expect to find the phrase slapped on includes paper goods (like cups and posters) as well as a clothing line featuring pants, shirts, and hoodies.
Michael Jackson
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame says it will NOT drop Michael Jackson from its prestigious ranks. He’s in the Hall of Fame twice, once for his work with The Jackson 5 and another for his solo work. As far as the Hall of Fame is concerned, he’s in there for his contributions to music. It’ll be interesting to see what happens next weekend, when Janet Jackson gets inducted and if she’ll mention him in her speech.
