Jonathan Bailey is opening up about wearing a prosthetic member for his role in the Showtime limited series Fellow Travelers.
The 36-year-old actor talked about his Emmy-nominated role during an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers on Thursday (August 15) in New York City.
Jonathan talked about the intimate scenes he shared with co-star Matt Bomer and how they stayed modest on set.
“When we started, obviously, you wear a protective layer, obviously, to protect yourself and so it’s not awkward. But, for the nature of the show, you want to choose something that maybe reflects what’s actually going on,” Jonathan began.

A column covering conversations and events on the awards circuit.
If it seems like we have been in an Emmy cycle with no end, you wouldn’t be far from wrong. But we are just about at the finish line as ballots are now in the hands (or laptops) of some 20,000, give or take, eligible Television Academy voting members and not due back until Monday, August 26 by 10 p.m Pt. With the 76th annual Primetime Emmys — our historic second ceremony in the same calendar year — set for Sunday, September 15 exactly a month from now (with Eugene and Dan Levy as hosts as just officially announced today after Deadline’s scoop last week), it will bring to an end a collision of seasons for the 75th Emmys which, due to the strikes, were delayed four months to January 15 of this year — even though that year’s eligible shows ended on May 31, 2023.

Vice Presidential hopeful Tim Walz bragged to union workers this week that he got sued for banning “captive audience” meetings, and while Seth Meyers was delighted about that energy, he did offer a warning to Walz — don’t try to start a “bragging war” with Donald Trump about being sued.
During his “A Closer Look” segment on Thursday night, Meyers zeroed in on a “disgusting” moment from Trump’s conversation with Elon Musk on X earlier this week, in which the two men bonded over the idea of firing workers who go on strike (which is illegal).
That moment prompted Walz to angrily call Trump a scab during his event with union workers, noting that “that’s not name-calling, it’s an observation and fact.”
“It’s so awesome the Democrats finally have a candidate with dad-stuck-in-traffic energy,” Meyers joked. “Walz talks about Trump like he’s yelling through the...

Three years after his divorce, the internet’s ex-boyfriend is, somehow, still in the doghouse.
Before John Mulaney checked into rehab for drug addiction in late 2020, the lauded Saturday Night Live veteran and stand-up superstar’s public image was that of a squeaky-clean, high-energy and impeccably dressed showman who merged the pageantry and formality of old-school Tonight Show comics with a contemporary boyishness that stole the hearts of the Tumblr generation.
Unlike the fandoms of any one of his comedy colleagues, Mulaney’s massive following included a large contingency of terminally online Millennial-to-Gen-z women who had formed a parasocial relationship with his stand-up persona while missing many of the hints that Mulaney himself had dropped to indicate that the handsome, puckish performer’s personal life wasn’t nearly as cheery as his onstage demeanor.

In their opening monologues on Tuesday night, late night talk show hosts Stephen Colbert and Seth Meyers both took Donald Trump’s interview with tech mogul Elon Musk’s revamped Twitter, now known as X, to task with jabs about the technical difficulties suffered ahead of the talk and some slurred speech from the former president.
Trump sat with Musk for a wide-ranging two-hour chat on X’s Spaces. But at its outset, the chat was beset with technical difficulties, which Musk blamed on a Distributed Denial-of-Service attack.
“There appears to be a massive Ddos attack on X,” Musk posted. “Working on shutting it down. Worst case, we will proceed with a smaller number of live listeners and post the conversation later.”
After about a 40-minute delay, the two men began the interview on the very same platform where both reached new levels of fame and amassed hundreds of millions...

Though Elon Musk’s chatbot on X claimed that Donald Trump was missing his dentures during the pair’s livestream on Monday night, Seth Meyers has a different theory. The NBC host joked on Tuesday that it sounded more like the man was wearing fake vampire teeth.
For the record, Grok — said “AI” chatbot we mentioned — wasn’t actually making claims based on facts. The program uses trending topics to create news summaries for the social media platform’s premium subscribers. Because the word “slurring” started trending during Trump’s conversation with Musk, Grok used that to create a summary called “Trump’s Dentures In Discussion Amid Speech.”
During his monologue on Tuesday night, Seth Meyers joked that it sounded more like Trump was wearing fake teeth, but not dentures.

The trailer for Saturday Night, the movie about the pressure-packed 90 minutes leading up to the first-ever episode of SNL, dropped last week and John Mulaney is tingling with anticipation. “I’m very excited about this movie,” the comic told Seth Meyers last night.
To be clear, Mulaney has nothing to do with the film about his comedy alma mater — “Zero.” But watching those tense two minutes of trailer taught him a lot about his former employer. “Now, I worked for five years at Saturday Night Live,” Mulaney deadpanned, “but I had no idea the kind of pressure cooker that it was. Apparently, it’s high stakes.”
The movie’s preview had “a lot of really interesting moments. Like what we know now, you’re like, ‘Oh, if only they knew then,’ right?” Mulaney said to a cackling Meyer.
What other secrets could Mulaney learn about what it’s like to work at SNL?...

Seth Meyers is thoroughly enjoying Donald Trump and his allies’ response to being called “weird” by the Harris campaign, but the NBC host does wish he could get some credit for using that particular descriptor for years now.
Of course, Trump is mostly denying that anyone is specifically calling him weird, instead throwing his running mate Jd Vance under the bus and saying the word is mostly reserved for him. During an appearance on The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, Trump boasted, “Nobody’s ever called me weird. I’m a lot of things, but weird I’m not.”
But Meyers took genuine offense to that claim on Monday night, in his first “A Closer Look” segment since being on hiatus for the Olympics for three weeks.
“Nobody’s ever — I’ve made a whole career out of it!” he bellowed. “That was the original title of this show!

Seth Meyers addressed Tim Walz being named as Kamala Harris’ running mate on Monday night, following his show’s hiatus.
Late Night with Seth Meyers returned on Monday after a three-week break; The Late Show with Stephen Colbert had been off for two weeks.
During his “A Closer Look” segment on Monday, Meyers reviewed a whirlwind list of news events he missed, including Joe Biden dropping out of the 2024 presidential race and now-Democratic presidential nominee Harris naming Walz as her running mate.
Meyers also addressed the recent surge in attention toward Democratic criticism of the GOP, with Democrats calling Trump, Vance and other Republicans “weird.” The trend took off after a Morning Joe appearance from Walz prior to Harris choosing him and has quickly spread throughout the party. Understandably, many credit Walz with starting the phenomenon.

The first time Seth Meyers’ Late Night was nominated for an Emmy in the Outstanding Talk Series category he decided to go for a run in New York without his phone. Last year, the writers strike had shut down production of his NBC late-night show.
“What was wonderful about this year is it’s the first time — there’s only been three — but it was the first time our show got nominated when we were in the office, because we had a show that night,” Meyers said. “I will admit, I was not particularly bullish on our chances, and I found out the best possible way, which is I heard our staff cheer through my shut office door. And you know me, I don’t ever want to hear my staff nor do I ever want to open my door and engage with them.”

Spoiler Alert !!!Spoilers for The Boys Season 4
The latest season of The Boys had its share of bizarre moments that have become a staple of the show. The Amazon Prime Video series has been known to show a lot of gore and messed-up sequences, with each season upping the ante on how far the series can go with the strangeness.
However, the highlight of a rather underwhelming season was Antony Starr’s Homelander getting squirted with breast milk in one scene. The actor was reportedly so weirded out by the sequence at the end of the day that he began questioning his life choices.

Three of the biggest late-night shows – The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and Late Night with Seth Meyers – have not been on air since Joe Biden stepped down as the Democratic nominee for President.
The trio went on their summer hiatus – Olympic-induced for Fallon and Meyers – the week before Kamala Harris started running against Donald Trump so expect some politics, and Olympics, next week.
It marked the second time in as many months that the trio missed the big news of the week, having previously been on after President Biden’s disastrous debate performance and Trump’s selection of Vice President.
Colbert will be welcomed back on Monday to the Ed Sullivan Theater by CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins, who has been covering this unprecedented time in American politics for the Wbd news network. Later in the week, on Wednesday August 14, he will also be...

The Big Bang Theory presented a star-studded ensemble. One such member was Laurie Metcalf, who played Sheldon Cooper’s mother Mary on the show. Her warmth and depth were something that added a unique value to Sheldon’s unconventional quirks. To make matters more interesting, her daughter Zoey Perry had taken on her Mary Cooper role in Big Bang’s spin-off series Young Sheldon.

Actors famously spend months, if not years in preparation for auditions, especially if it is for a well-known franchise. But there are others who audition just for the sake of it and the universe ends up dropping giant opportunities on their unsuspecting laps. One such example is of the brilliant action star, Antony Starr and his audition for The Boys.

While in an interview with Seth Meyers, the star revealed how his audition for the role of Homelander in the hit series The Boys was ‘out of spite’ and he was unaware of the source material. On being accepted by the production house, Starr decided to read through the comics and was horrified, the actor was unconvinced that such a graphic comic could be translated on television.

When it comes to sending chills down the spine & conjuring nightmares (that linger in broad daylight), could anyone surpass the eerie craftsmanship of Stephen King? Well, this is not a hard question! Grasping the reins of horror with the skill of a seasoned charioteer, this Maine-born maestro has been transforming our fears into a cacophony of terror since his debut, Carrie, set foot in the literary arena back in 1974.
King’s quill, dipped in the ink of the supernatural & the macabre, has sketched out thrilling geographies where cars like Christine (from his same-titled novel) develop deadly minds of their own, and hotels like The Overlook from The Shining become characters as complex as any human.

Google a list of the all-time best Saturday Night Live hosts, and you’ll find a surprising number of people who you’d never guess were funny in the first place.
I mean, before SNL, who knew athletes Charles Barkley and Peyton Manning were hilarious? Who watched Nsync videos and predicted that Justin Timberlake had “Dick in a Box” in him? Billie Eilish? Chance the Rapper? Anyone have news anchor Brian Williams on their funny bingo card?
As the show embarks on its landmark 50th season, here are five more suggestions for out-of-the-box SNL hosts who just might knock it out of the park…

Hawk has been quietly comedy-adjacent for years, appearing in College Humor sketches, skateboarding in a fat suit in a Jackass movie and lending his voice to The Simpsons.

“To honor this great President, tonight, I have officially retired my Joe Biden aviators. They will reside there on my shelf forever in a place of honor, next to Captain America’s shield. Those aviators did the hardest job of all. They made it seem like I had a Joe Biden impression,” he said.

Over the years, Mark Hamill has created quite a diverse acting portfolio for himself. Outside of his work in the Star Wars franchise, he has explored so many different genres and worked with some of the most talented actors Hollywood has to offer from all its corners. This has helped him understand the difference between a good and a bad director.

With all his knowledge in mind, it is quite surprising to know that he does not think that his co-star, Harrison Ford, would be a good director. Even though the actor has played iconic roles like Han Solo, Indiana Jones, and now the Red Hulk, he has never been behind the camera, and that might be for good reason.

NBC will be happy and relieved with its late-night Emmy haul with Late Night with Seth Meyers staving off the threat of John Mulaney, and Saturday Night Live almost doubling its nominations from last year.
Comedy Central, which tied its own record with seven nominations for The Daily Show, HBO, which increased the number of noms that Last Week Tonight with John Oliver received and CBS, which scored five for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, will also all be pleased.
John Mulaney Presents: Everybody’s In LA had been touted as a possible new entry into the main late-night talk category but couldn’t unseat Meyers, Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel or The Daily Show, which won last year and is now hosted, in part, by Jon Stewart. The Netflix show was only in the pictured editing category.

Congratulations, I guess, to The Bear, which just set a record for most Emmy nominations by a comedy series with a gut-busting 23 nods. Only one problem, as has been pointed out by every entertainment outlet on the Internet — anxiety-inducing, scream-filled, angst-ridden The Bear isn’t a comedy! Recognize its excellence elsewhere and give some deserved kudos to actual comedies that deserved a shot, like…
Girls5eva. A worthy successor to fizzy sitcoms like 30 Rock and The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, the never-nominated Girls5eva deserves some credit for actually making us laugh. Variety applauded its revival, both for its “joke-dense satire of cultural misogyny” and its “resonant tale of later-in-life reinvention.”
Gen V. The Boys spin-off is currently rocking a 97 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, “a sharp, snarky commentary on the billion-dollar business of hero worship,” says the L.A. Times’ Lorraine Ali. “And yes, it’s just as irreverent and crass as its fearless predecessor.

Check out the full nominees list below.
Announced this morning from the El Capitan theatre in Hollywood, the nominations also included shout-outs for Netflix’s addictive but controversial limited series Baby Reindeer, along with well-deserved noms for the fourth season of True Detective featuring Jodie Foster.

There was a lot of buzz that John Mulaney was expected to gatecrash the late-night Emmy race but it was not to be.
The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Daily Show, Late Night with Seth Meyers and Jimmy Kimmel Live! will fight it out in the Outstanding Talk Series category.
These four competed last year alongside The Problem with Jon Stewart, although the host of the latter is now one of the hosts of The Daily Show after his Apple series was canceled.
John Mulaney Presents: Everybody’s In LA did not make the cut.
This comes after the category nabbed four nomination spots in June, a surprise to many in the late-night world after 14 shows were submitted. Last year, there were five nominations.
Hot Ones, the online chicken talk show hosted by Sean Evans, was one of the other outside bets for a nomination. The show, which was created by Chris Schonberger,...

Jon Stewart returned to “The Daily Show” desk Tuesday night and spoke about the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pa., on Saturday.
“We dodged a catastrophe, but it was still a tragedy,” Stewart said. He then paid tribute to firefighter Corey Comperatore, who died from the shooting.
“He had given his life in service to his community and he died literally shielding his family,” Stewart said of Comperatore. “He’s a reminder that in those moments of crisis, there are helpers, and we can all make a choice to try and be one of those people.”
Earlier in his opening, Stewart joked about how “the internet is a great source of information” when “shit hits the fan” in the U.S.
“For instance, within minutes, I found out that this is staged, and then I found out that it was actually an inside job,...

Late-night hosts Seth Meyers and Stephen Colbert opened their shows Monday night with somber monologues following the attempted assassination Saturday of Donald Trump, while Jimmy Fallon avoided the topic.
Meyers began his monologue saying he would get to the jokes shortly, but first wanted to reflect “for a bit on the horrifying scenes we witnessed in Pennsylvania on Saturday and on this fraught moment in American history. I want to echo what so many have already said, political violence must be rejected in all its forms. It is both morally wrong and a poison to democracy. We must all condemn it and repudiate it and do everything in our power to stop it.”
Meyers went on to call out Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance, Trump’s VP pick, for “choosing to make things worse” at a very difficult time.

After acknowledging the attempted assassination on former president Donald Trump, Late Night host Seth Meyers condemned members of the GOP Monday — including Trump’s running mate, Ohio senator J.D. Vance — for how they continued to stoke fears in response to an horrific attack on U.S. democracy.
“Often after a tragedy like this, there are calls to forego politics,” Meyers began. “But to me, politics — the nonviolent exchange of ideas, and the peaceful resolution of disputes — feels more important than ever. An inclusive politics of compassion, empathy and community… is what we must recommit to now.” Which is why the...

Late-night was a somber affair on Monday night (July 15) as hosts Stephen Colbert, Seth Meyers, and Anthony Anderson (filling in for Jimmy Kimmel) addressed the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump on Saturday (July 13). All three hosts denounced the shooting and called for the end of “hatred and vitriol in our politics.” Elsewhere, The Daily Show decided to skip its Monday show, canceling its original plans to cover the Republican National Convention from Milwaukee, and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon chose to avoid the topic altogether. Read more below to see each late-night host’s reaction to the attempted assassination.

Stephen Colbert’s The Late Show is airing live this week in conjunction with the Republican National Convention, but the CBS host opened Monday’s episode with a prerecorded message condemning last weekend’s assassination attempt against Donald Trump.
“The United States came close to a great tragedy on Saturday when at a political rally down in Pennsylvania, a 20-year-old gunman shot and nearly killed a former president and the man who today became the 2024 Republican nominee,” Colbert said. “My immediate reaction when I saw this on Saturday was horror at what was unfolding, relief that Donald Trump had lived and, frankly, grief for my beautiful country — and then fresh horror, as we learned that attendees had also been shot, one of whom died at the rally.”
Colbert offered this context as reason for starting his show, scheduled to be live this week, in a prerecorded segment from his desk,...

Seth Meyers opened Monday’s Late Night monologue without jokes, calling the assassination attempt against Trump “poison to our democracy.”
“Political violence must be rejected in all its forms — it is both morally wrong and a poison to democracy,” Meyers said in a somber monologue. “We must all condemn it and repudiate it and do everything in our power to stop it.”
Meyers said his prep for Monday’s show felt reminiscent of the day his Late Night team crafted their response to the Jan. 6 insurrection in 2021. “I said then that multiracial, pluralistic democracy is fragile and precious,” he said. “It requires our vigilance, stewardship and protection. That’s as true now as it was then, and in light of the horrific events at a Trump rally on Saturday, it’s clear that we must recommit ourselves to that endeavor as fully and as steadfastly as we can.”

Seth Meyers has words for Donald Trump’s new right-hand man.
After condemning the “horrifying” assassination attempt made against Trump on Saturday and elaborating that “political violence must be condemned in all its forms,” the “Late Night” host also took a moment to condemn how certain right-wing political voices have responded to attack.
He first called for “an inclusive politics of compassion, empathy and community” and encouraged viewers to have conversations about “the real work of democracy,” saying, “That’s what we need.”
“What we don’t need are the opportunistic purveyors of paranoia, suspicion and fear who have already rushed to fill the void with incendiary conspiracy theories and lies,” he continued, before cutting to coverage of the assassination attempt on various news programs.

Whoopi Goldberg admitted she broke Disney’s cardinal rule. This is shocking since she works for ABC, part of Disney Entertainment, a division of The Walt Disney Company. Whoopi has a long-running relationship with Disney.
In 1994, she voiced Shenzi in the Disney animated film The Lion King. She returned to the character in the 2004 midquel The Lion King1 1/2. Whoopi also voiced Miss Mittens in Snow Buddies and Stretch in the Disney/Pixar film Toy Story 3.
She recently shared one of the cardinal rules she broke in an interview with Seth Meyers. Keep on reading to learn more.

Originally a comic book series, ‘The Boys’ has transcended its origins through Amazon Prime’s streaming adaptation, which includes significant changes and additions, propelling the series to global acclaim. While Homelander remains a formidable villain in the series, actor Antony Starr has distinguished himself quite differently.
Starr’s portrayal has garnered immense praise from fans, drawing comparisons to Heath Ledger’s iconic Joker. In various interviews, the actor has actively discouraged fans from supporting Homelander, emphasizing the character’s undeniable villainy.
Recently, Starr disclosed a significant vulnerability he experienced on the set of The Boys, one that was also symbolically portrayed on-screen, adding an intriguing layer to his character. This weakness stems from a childhood crush, and we’ll reveal who it is in the following paragraphs.
Starr himself confirmed this revelation during an interview on Late Night with Seth Meyers, where he delved into his role and various aspects of the show’s production.
