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.

Be happy for Jennifer Hudson. Yes, she earned her EGOT. You need to do what’s between “E and the T”

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

JHud deservingly won,, Sherri is a fake and paper mache version of “Wendy. And she even lost to the bald headed Jada got podcast.

Yup it’s all about who u know and who u do!!! Nothing about how u do!

She deserves it. She is a talented person.

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.

Well deserved Beyonce for your Grammy award who cares what the haters say

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.

Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun Written Out of The Young and the Restless

Published

By

It looks like the current run of Lucas Adams (Noah) and Tamara Braun (Sienna) on The Young and the Restless is coming to an end, after the Monday, August 3 edition of the CBS daytime drama revealed that Noah and Sienna are leaving Genoa City and heading back to Los Angeles.

In the storyline, Noah informed his mother, Sharon (Sharon Case) and half-sister Mariah (Camryn Grimes) that he and Sienna made the decision to move back to the West Coast to put distance between themselves and Matt Clark (Roger Howarth). Although Noah did not say it was a permanent move, he did assure his mom that once Matt is hopefully gone from Genoa City they could return.

However, as previewed already on the video teaser for this week’s episodes of Y&R (see below), it appears Noah left Genoa City’s The Shadow Room to be run by a returning Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian). So with that, coupled with today’s episode, it would appear the move could wind up being more permanent.

COMINGS AND GOINGS

Adams made his Y&R debut on November 4, 2025 as the successor to Rory Gibson who last played Noah on-screen in April of 2023. Earlier in 2025, Gibson took over the role of Michael Corinthos on Genera Hospital replacing Chad Duell, who stepped away from the part after 15 years.

Braun who played Adam’s mother on Days of Our Lives when she was Ava Vitali and he was Tripp Dalton, first appeared on Y&R back on October 14, 2025, where we soon learned she had become Noah’s lover as the new character, Sienna Bacall.  It should be noted, Adams was on contract with the number #1 soap, while Braun has been on recurring status.

With Josh Griffith now exited as head writer of The Young and the Restless, and the newly announced co-head writing team of Jamey Giddens and Dan O’Connor having taken his place and starting their new tenure this week, it will be interesting to see how the duo resets the show, and if a Noah and Sienna return is in the cards for the future or not.

So, what do you think about the seeming departures of Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun from The Young and the Restless? Weigh-in via the comment section. But first, check out our recent live chat with Tamara and Lucas on the Michael Fairman Channel.

Rosie O’Donnell Says She Will Return to ‘The View’ During its Season 30

Rosie O'Donnell

Rosie O’Donnell revealed that she plans to head back to a seat at the table of ABC’s morning talk show The View.

The announcement came during Monday’s episode of The Tangle Podcast where she shared she will participate in “in whatever way they want” her or “just as a guest” for its upcoming 30th season.

The View’s season 30 will kick-off this fall in September. O’Donnell explained, “They’re bringing back all the hosts, I think. And, you know, I’m pretty proud of that show, what it’s become and how it really speaks to the people and to politics.”

ROSIE ON HER PREVIOUS GO-ROUNDS ON THE VIEW

As fans of The View know, O’Donnell famously had two different one-year stints on the talk show in 2007 and again in 2014- 2015. She often feuded with then co-host Elizabeth Hasselbeck.

However, during her discussion with host, Kyle Ridley on The Tangle Podcast, O’Donnell also noted she often had tense moments with longtime moderator and anchor, Whoopi Goldberg.

O’Donnell also expressed, “Many, many people got the short end of the stick there. It was, you know, it was a factory where people were being churned in and out and their tenuous security, nobody got to be calm. It also was a show at the time that was run by a man. A show created by a woman, for women, about women, and the man was deciding what we should talk about. And that didn’t sit right with me, you know.”

Back in 2023, Brooke Shields had asked Rosie on her podcast, Now What? with Brooke Shields, about how she felt on her two stints at The View and all the controversy that surrounded it. Rosie at that time, stated, “I know this, it’s not the best use of my talent to get in a show where I have to argue and defend basic principles of humanity and kindness. It was not something I’d ever do again.”

You can check out the clip with Rosie and Kyle Ridley discussing her return to The View in some form for its upcoming 30th season below.

Then weigh-in: Would you be excited to see Rosie, even for a one-day or a week guest stint on the upcoming celebratory season of The View, or not so much? Let us know via the comment section.
