Hugh Jackman Damaged His Voice From ‘Growling and Yelling’ Too Much as Wolverine: ‘My Vocal Teacher Would Be Horrified’

Karen Bliss Nickelback’s induction into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame at Monday’s Juno Awards called for a local hero — and who better to introduce the honorees than Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid. “The LeBron of hockey,” as Junos host Simu Liu called the athlete, is currently regarded as the NHL’s best player. In Edmonton, not far from the tiny town of Hanna, Alberta (where a sign welcoming visitors reads, “Proud to be the home of Nickelback”), the rock band is equally respected. To wit: an introduction by Canadian actor Ryan Reynolds in an 11-minute video chronicling their start as a cover band to global rock act with sales of over 50 million albums. “They played a show here a number of years ago and I met them backstage and ended up having a really good time together,” McDavid — who is from Toronto and joined the Oilers in 2015 — tells Variety. “I think there’s always a mutual respect for athletes to musicians and musicians to athletes, and we definitely bonded over that.”

Ryan Reynolds just struck a billion-dollar deal, which is serious business for an ordinary business person. But Reynolds is no ordinary business person.

Could Ryan Reynolds be making a play to own an NHL team?

Brad Pitt.Have a seat, Ryan Reynolds.Shania Twain has her eye on a new hunk.On “That Don’t Impress Me Much” — one of a string of hits from Twain’s 1997 blockbuster “Come on Over” — the country-pop queen famously quipped, “OK, so you’re Brad Pitt? That don’t impress me much.”But when Twain performed the single at the People’s Choice Awards last December, she flipped the lyric from “Brad Pitt” to “Ryan Reynolds,” as cameras panned to the “Free Guy” actor in the audience.But now the 57-year-old singer has moved on to yet another member of the Sexiest Man Alive club.“It’s Channing Tatum,” she told the UK’s Radio Times about the “Magic Mike’s Last Dance” star.“I’m trying to think how I would sing that … ‘OK, so you’re Channing Tatum’ — yeah, that works.”But more than likely, Pitt — who is actually a two-time Sexiest Man Alive, claiming the title in 1995 and 2000 — isn’t taking Twain’s latest sub as a snub.When asked about the Reynolds swap in January, the “Babylon” actor told the Movie Dweeb site, “I think we can share the wealth there.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Hugh Jackman is officially in Wolverine mode. The actor shared a photo of his daily meal plan as his bulking phase goes into overdrive ahead of filming “Deadpool 3,” in which he will reprise the role of Wolverine opposite Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool. The film marks the first “Deadpool” movie and Jackman’s first time playing Wolverine in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. “Bulking. A day in the life,” Jackman wrote as a caption while sharing a photo of the six meals he will eat in a given day. “Thank you, Chef Mario, for helping me stay healthy and properly fed whilst… Becoming. Wolverine. Again.” Jackman’s meals include black bass (2,000 calories), Patagonia salmon (2,100 calories), two chicken burgers (around 1,000 calories each) and two grass-fed sirloins (1,100 calories each). That means Jackson is consuming over 8,000 calories a day now as he gets bulked up for Wolverine. To put that into perspective, Jonathan Majors ate 6,000 calories for four months in order to be play a bodybuilder in his buzzy Sundance movie “Magazine Dreams.” Jackson is eating far more.

K.J. Yossman Ryan Reynolds cast doubt on the long-hoped for “Free Guy” sequel during an appearance in the U.K. on Saturday evening. Headlining the four-day Just For Laughs comedy festival at the O2 Arena in London, Reynolds appeared in conversation with his “Deadpool 2” co-star Rob Delaney who asked whether he was planning a sequel to any of the films he has produced, which include “Free Guy.” “There is the potential to do a sequel to ‘Free Guy,’ which would be fun,” Reynolds replied. “I would love it. But also like, does everything fucking have to be a sequel? I don’t know. Sometimes it’s OK to just do a movie and have it kick ass and then everyone go home.”

Bryan Cranston is telling it like it is — and thank goodness for that.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Bryan Cranston said in an interview with CNN’s Chris Wallace that Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” slogan could be received as a “racist remark,” and he asked both Wallace and viewers at home if they’ve ever taken time to consider why that is the case. “The ‘Make America Great Again’ – my comment is: Do you accept that that could possibly be construed as a racist remark?” Cranston said. “And most people, a lot of people go, ‘How could that be racist? Make America Great Again?’ I said, ‘So just ask yourself from, from an African American experience, when was it ever great in America for the African American? When was it great?’”

Over the weekend, Chris Wallace asked Bryan Cranston on CNN about “a tussle” he got into recently about critical race theory on Bill Maher’s Club Random podcast. In the context of that conversation, Cranston told the host of Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace? on Sunday that Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” slogan can be seen as racist.

Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace?” and explained how Donald Trump’s catchphrase “Make America Great Again” can be perceived as a “racist remark.”Wallace brought up Cranston’s recent debate on “Real Time With Bill Maher” as a “tussle” — a term Cranston seemed to find inaccurate — and asked the “Breaking Bad” star for his thoughts on media’s influence in political discourse. Cranston responded with a deeper explanation of why he believes American education must take a harder look at the prejudices and racist systems that led to inequality in the US and connect them to the roots of inequality in today’s society. “I think that Germany has looked at their history in involvement in the wars — one and two — and embrace it and say, ‘This is where we went wrong.
