She’s already an EGOT, now an NAACP citation. What’s next, the Nobel Prize? This generation of performers get rewarded so easily for every little thing. Like that absurd number of Grammys for Beyonce — more than Barbra Streisand, Carly Simon, Bette Midler, and Joni Mitchell COMBINED. I guess when they allow the same song to qualify in rock, pop, R & B, rap, etc., the awards really pile up. I call it cheating.

I stopped looking at the awards’ ceremonies, it’s no way Jennifer should have won the award for best daytime host. It’s hands up and down Sherri

NAACP gives an AWARD, it’s not a citation. I respect your opinion but Streisand (whom I love), Carly S, Bette and Joni are from generations ago. Those beautiful queens are old enough to be Jennifer’s grandmother. So no comparison’s needed between generations. Those talented ladies all got their roses in their hey days. Think back on it, in those days, Grammy categories were male centered anyway like everything else. They opened the doors for Jennifer and Beyonce to rack up the numbers. I even saw Toni and Tamar Braxton giving praise and acknowledgement to the Carpenters for inspiring them.

I disagree with the decision. Though Jennifer Hudson is a superb vocalist, there is where her calling lies. She is not tailored to be a talk show host. Sherri Shepherd on the other hand is. She is spontaneous, funny, smooth, exudes life experiences and just simply genuine. Besides, she is a great actress as well unlike Jennifer Hudson.

I wasn’t planning on watching Jennifer’s show but I gave it a chance. Turns out she’s is quite likable on her show. Sometimes it’s obvious she’s a rookie but she’ll improve with time. Congrats on the win.

CM Punk Officially Set for Return to AEW On New Series ‘Collision’ Premiere

Finally, pro wrestling fans got the word from AEW president Tony Khan on tonight’s episode of  AEW Dynamite; that CM Punk is coming back to AEW, and will make his highly-anticipated reemergence on Khan’s new Saturday wrestling series, TNT’s AEW: Collision on June 17th.

As many had expected with the premiere of ‘Collision’ set for the United Center in Chicago, and Punk’s hometown, it was just a matter of time before Warner Brothers/Discovery and AEW made CM’s return official.

The two-time AEW world champion has not been seen, or talked about on-air since the All In pay-per-view back in September of 2022. That event featured an explosive post-show media scrum, where Punk went off on former friend, Colt Cabana, and wrestlers: Hangman Adam Page, and AEW Executive VP’s, Kenny Omega, Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson.  Later, a backstage brawl broke out, which saw several of the guys suspended and Punk off of TV and his future with the organization in limbo.

However, Punk was also off TV because he was tore his tricep during his last match with Jon Moxley. Since it required surgery and rehab, he was not cleared to wrestle since last fall.

Now the question becomes, when CM Punk returns, will be a full on heel? Given how he has not been the most ‘liked’ guy in the locker room, it might make the most sense to play in to it all.  Stay tuned.

So, excited to know the CM Punk is on his way back to the new AEW television show and maybe an arena and a ring near you? Comment below.

Y&R Alum Sasha Calle to Henry Cavill on Her ‘Supergirl’ : “Did I Make You Proud, Cuz? Did Superman Approve?”

In just a few weeks time on June 16th, The Flash will drop in theatres nationwide, and moviegoers will get to see former Y&R star Sasha Calle in her major film debut as Supergirl.

Calle played by Lola Rosales on the CBS daytime drama series from September of 2018 till June of 2021.  Now Sasha, who won the coveted role of Supergirl from the film’s director Andy Muschietti, will be mixing it up with other superheroes in the The Flash.

EW reports that in real life, Calle actually met Henry Cavill (formerly Superman) and got his reaction to her taking on the pivotal role. Back in December of 2022, Cavill revealed he was hanging up his cape, although various reports originally had him making a cameo in The Flash.

Sasha shared, “I met him (Cavill) actually after the movie was done, months later. I gave him a big hug. You know, it’s Henry Cavill, man! Our Man of Steel. He is kind and very proper, and it was a great experience.”

She went on to say, “I asked him, ‘Did I make you proud, cuz? Does Superman approve?'”  And he was like, ‘Absolutely. You did a phenomenal job.’ I think, to me, that meant the world, because it’s Henry Cavill, Man of Steel.”

The Flash stars Ezra Miller, along with Michael Keaton, Michael Shannon, Ben Affleck and nomre.
