Glen Powell has revealed that he “puked in the bushes” after his first viewing of Hidden Figures because he thought he’d “ruined” the film.The US actor played real-life astronaut and former US senator John Glenn in Theodore Melfi’s Oscar-nominated film about the three African-American mathematicians – played by Octavia Spencer, Taraji P Henson and Janelle Monáe – who were pivotal in his historic launch into space back in 1962.Speaking on a recent episode of Therapuss with Jake Shane, the actor admitted that he had seen Top Gun: Maverick, in which he played pilot Hangman, four times.When host Shane reacted with surprise that the star was able to watch his performances back, Powell responded that “it does get in your own head”, adding: “People forget that when you’re watching a rough cut of a movie, it’s probably like watching the footage of yourself that you’re having to edit. So you sit there and you’re like, ‘I hate myself.’”The Anyone But You star then recalled his experience seeing the first cut of the 2016 film.

Janelle Monáe has revealed that she felt “othered” early on in her career because she didn’t know how to make her music “translate”.The Kansas singer, actor and rapper is set to headline the first-ever I Made Rock ‘N’ Roll Festival, which will take place this Saturday (May 18) at the American Legion Mall in Indianapolis, Indiana. To promote the event, Monáe spoke with The Hollywood Reporter about her career and her musical fluidity.She said when she released the 2007 ‘Metropolis: The Chase Suite’ EP – the first instalment in her “science fiction odyssey” – she had a “smaller” audience that “got her,” but kept wondering how her music would “translate to everybody”.“I did go through a moment during that time where I felt super othered and like I had to cut off certain parts of me because people won’t understand it,” she said.
“I think that that’s been proven wrong. I think that there [are] a lot of people that get the frequency.”Monáe continued: “Music is just about a feeling and people gravitate towards the feeling.
You can say, ‘I’m going to do a jazz album’ or ‘I’m going to do this or that,’ but if the feeling’s not there, I don’t think people will talk about it. If you can capture a feeling and an honesty and a frequency that people want to make their soundtrack, then you’ve got a hit, you’ve got something special.”She added: “Once I knew that people understood the feeling that I was trying to get across, the breaking away from expectations, creatively and musically, and the community that I was trying to make and the journey that I was on, that gave me the confidence that I needed.
And it wasn’t about everybody. It was about the right people.”Alan Bacon co-founded GANGGANG – the Indianapolis-based creative advocacy
