Listen to “Showbiz – Feb 25, 2022” on Spreaker.

 

On your TVs this weekend…The season finale of “Love is Blind 2” is out on Netflix and we finally get to see if sweaty Nick says “I do” or “I don’t” to Danielle and whether Shake can finally get past looking at Deepti as his aunt and if Mallory can finally talk herself into being in love with Sal and — I can’t believe I’m saying this — but I’m actually rooting for Natalie and Shayne when I thought they were the worst match out of all of them! Also on Netflix, Tyler Perry pulled that wig out of retirement and he’s back “A Madea Homecoming.” Saturday on Amazon Prime, you can check out “The Weeknd and the Dawn FM Experience.” The Weeknd says this immersive music special is “the next phase of Dawn FM — a purgatory otherworld where live performance, theater, and performance art collide for a night out at the club.” Also on Saturday, John Mulaney hosts “SNL” with LCD Soundsystem as his musical guest. And on Sunday, it’s the 20th season premiere of “American Idol” on ABC and the second season finale of “Euphoria” on HBO.

Thieves have stolen over $200K worth of props from the set of “The Crown” near Doncaster, England. Over 350 items were taken, including gemstones, silverware, and antiques. One of the stolen items was a replica of a rare Fabergé egg that belonged to Queen Elizabeth II’s grandfather, George V. Other stolen items included gold and silver candelabras, the face from a William IV grandfather clock, St. Louis gild crystal glassware and more. Police are still searching for the thieves. The fifth season of “The Crown” will debut later this year. The 10-episodes will cover the years 1990-1997 with new cast members taking over the roles of the Royals.

Somebody needs to check on Todrick Hall. He is NOT happy about coming in second on “Celebrity Big Brother.” MMA star Miesha Tate won in an almost-unanimous vote. Third-place finisher Cynthia Bailey cast the lone vote for Todrick. He was so mad about losing that he refused to do any post-show interviews. And the hashtag #TodrickExposedParty started trending. Miesha won $250K for coming in first. Todrick got $50K. This season’s fan favorite went to Carson Kressley, who got a check for $25K.

Now that she is free from the constraints of her conservatorship, a lot of positive things are happening in Britney Spears’ life. She just signed a $15M book deal, which is expected to be a tell-all about her 13-year conservatorship. She’s reportedly in negotiations to do an interview with Oprah. And Britney also went on Instagram to say that she’s ready to move! She shared a sunset view from the window of her bedroom, saying, “I’ve lived in this house for 7 years and I’m in the process of buying a new home… it’s time for change!!!!” Britney said, “I’ve been pretty modest about the home I live in now!!!! I know you guys have seen me dance in my living room…. but honestly I have 3 living rooms!!!! Maybe one day I’ll give you guys a tour but until then here’s the pink sky!!!” Britney bought this house in Thousand Oaks back in 2015 for $7.4M.

Pete Davidson posted one behind-the-scenes video from the set of his new movie and then deleted his Instagram account about 20 minutes later. Kanye is taking credit for that, posting a screenshot of Pete’s empty IG page and captioning it, “Ran Skete off the gram. Tell your mother I changed your name for life.” But a source told Page Six, “Kanye didn’t drive Pete off social media.” The source said, “Pete deleted his IG because immediately after his first post he started receiving a flood of messages, both positive and negative, reminding him why he didn’t want social media to begin with.” While Pete continues to film his movie, his girlfriend Kim Kardashian flew to Italy for Milan Fashion Week. And Kanye is hanging out in Miami with Kim’s doppelgänger, Chaney Jones — an IG model who also has a mental health practice in Atlanta.
