Celebrity Interviews
Ben Affleck Slammed by Reporter as 'Rudest Celebrity' She's Encountered

Veteran ABC reporter Sarah Ferguson revealed that Ben Affleck was one of her "least favorite" celebrities to interview. Ferguson criticized Affleck's attitude as "rude" and "not interesting" during their 2023 interview promoting his film Air. She said only four questions made it to air due to his lackluster responses. Affleck's comments on the film’s focus on Michael Jordan's family, rather than just business figures, were particularly noted. Ferguson also expressed interest in interviewing Boris Johnson, Julian Assange, and Benjamin Netanyahu.

Inside Gail Federici’s Beauty Cabinet: The Products She Uses Religiously

Gail Federici, a pioneer in beauty, co-founded John Frieda in 1989 and later launched Color Wow in 2013. Known for tackling hair issues like frizz and flatness, Federici finds joy in solving longstanding beauty problems. Despite her shy beginnings, her confidence grew through experience and hard work, which she says is key to her success.

Her morning routine reflects her belief in self-care as a necessity. Waking around 7 a.m., she spends 30 minutes quietly in bed catching up on emails and news before starting her day. She values flexibility, often taking early meetings from home to avoid a hectic start.

For skincare, Federici relies on Augustinus Bader’s foaming cleanser, Rich Cream, and eye cream for hydration and a smooth finish. Her makeup essentials include Jouer Blush Bouquet, Jones Road mascara, and Charlotte Tilbury’s Pillow Talk lip pencil.

Entertainment
Deadpool & Wolverine Director: Taylor Swift Role 'Never Discussed

Despite fan speculation and rumors, Taylor Swift's cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine was never considered. Director Shawn Levy confirmed that Swift's involvement, whether as Dazzler or Lady Deadpool, was never discussed. Despite connections between Swift, Ryan Reynolds, and Levy, including a nod in the film's marketing, the rumors were unfounded. Levy admitted to Entertainment Weekly that the speculation was overwhelming but beyond his control. Swift herself praised Reynolds' work on the film in an Instagram statement, while humorously noting, "But that’s just Hugh for you!" instead of mentioning Reynolds directly.
