Kourtney and Travis, Issa Rae, Donald Glover Shine on Emmys Red Carpet

Kourtney and Travis, Issa Rae, Donald Glover Shine on Emmys Red Carpet

The 2023 Emmys have finally arrived — in 2024 (confusing, we know) — as the original Sept. 18 date was postponed due to the prolonged Hollywood strikes. Befitting the fashionably late adage, the four-months-into-a-new-year delay made for maximum stylish entrances on the red carpet on Monday, Jan. 15. Hosted by Anthony Anderson, the event is marking its 75th anniversary, which likely means iconic shows, moments, and actors will be highlighted. This year, HBO’s Succession nabbed the most Emmy nominations with 27 for its final season, with Last of Us and The White Lotus picking up 24 and 23 nods, respectively. To kick things off, the stars from the best of television hit the red carpet at Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, California. Here’s a roundup of the glamorous looks at the 75th Emmys.

Danny Masterson Loses Rape Conviction Appeal, Vows to Take Fight to State Supreme Court

Danny Masterson’s bid to overturn his 2023 rape convictions and 30-year prison sentence was denied by a California appeals court on Tuesday, leading lawyers for the That ‘70s Show star to vow they’ll seek review in the state’s highest court.

In their 89-page ruling, obtained by Rolling Stone, a panel of three appellate justices rejected Masterson’s arguments that his trial judge improperly handled evidence, violated his right to a fair trial, and “exhibited hostility toward Scientology.” Masterson claimed the judge had demonstrated bias by “comparing Scientology to white supremacists, gangs, and Satanists,” according to his appeal filings.

‘The One About Matthew Perry’ Reveals Emotional Way His ‘Friends’ Cast Said Goodbye at His Funeral

It’s been three years since Matthew Perry was found dead in his Los Angeles home — a tragedy that struck both Hollywood stars and devoted fans of the hit NBC sitcom Friends.

Authorities later revealed that Perry, 54, drowned in his hot tub due to the “acute effects of ketamine” in his system. His death triggered a lengthy criminal investigation that saw Perry’s live-in assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa, his dealer Jasveen Sangha — often known by clients as the “Ketamine Queen” — and three others sentenced to multiple years in federal prison for providing Perry with the drugs. It was a devastating ending for an actor who had a life-long issue with substance abuse and was celebrated for his frank and honest revelations about his struggle.

Canadian Actor Eric Bauza, Voice of Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck, Has Died

Eric Bauza, the Canadian voice actor who brought Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and dozens of other animated characters to life, has died at 46. His family announced his sudden death on Sunday, October 25, in a statement shared on his Instagram account. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner listed hypertensive cardiovascular disease as the cause of death, according to Variety.

Born and raised in Scarborough, Toronto, Bauza built a career spanning more than 400 acting credits, becoming one of the principal voices behind Warner Bros.’ Looney Tunes franchise. He voiced Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Tweety, Marvin the Martian and other characters, following in the footsteps of legendary voice actor Mel Blanc. Bauza worked with Warner Bros. for more than 15 years.

Beyond Looney Tunes, Bauza voiced Fozzie Bear in Disney Junior’s Muppet Babies, Puss in Boots in the Netflix series The Adventures of Puss in Boots and characters in Avatar: The Last Airbender, Teen Titans Go! and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. His film credits included Space Jam: A New Legacy, The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie and The Super Mario Bros. Movie.

Bauza won three Children’s and Family Emmy Awards for his voice performances in Looney Tunes Cartoons, Bugs Bunny Builders and Teen Titans Go!, earning recognition for work that reached audiences across generations.

He also publicly campaigned for the release of Coyote vs. Acme after Warner Bros. initially shelved the film in 2023. The project eventually secured distribution through Ketchup Entertainment, with Bauza reprising his role as Daffy Duck.

At the time of his death, Bauza was preparing to voice Daffy in Bye Bye Bunny: A Looney Tunes Musical, according to Variety. He leaves behind a son, from his union with Canadian-American animation director and producer Jessica Borutski.

Elon Musk’s Grok Finally Delivers First Installment of ‘Historically Accurate’ ‘The Odyssey’

Three months after Elon Musk promised to make a “historically accurate” version of The Odyssey using AI, Grok shared the first installment of its response to Christopher Nolan’s cinematic epic.

When Nolan’s take on Homer’s epic poem arrived in June, Musk accused the director of being an “anti-White racist” over his casting of Lupita Nyong’o as Helen of Troy. “He wants the awards.” On Musk’s X and other right-leaning platforms, similar complaints were made about Elliot Page’s role as Sinon.

Nick Reiner is a step closer to accessing a portion of his $1.7 million trust fund to rehire prominent defense attorney Alan Jackson as he fights charges that he fatally stabbed his parents, Rob and Michele Reiner. At a court hearing Friday, his lawyer announced that the dispute over the funds would move to private settlement talks.

“We’re happy to report that at your honor’s direction, we met and conferred about mediation and settlement, and all parties have now scheduled a global mediation,” Nick’s trust lawyer, Anita P. Wu, told Judge Ruben Garcia in downtown Los Angeles. Wu said the mediation was set for Dec. 16 before retired Judge Mitchell L. Beckloff, who previously oversaw Michael Jackson’s estate. Any settlement would require Garcia’s approval.
