Zack Sharf Olivia Wilde’s “Don’t Worry Darling” press tour was chaotic, to say the least. In a new interview with Elle magazine, Wilde expressed disappointment in how the media took all of the behind-the-scenes drama surrounding the film and “minimized [it] into bite-size TikTok points,” adding, “This film is trying to ask big questions, but [it’s] ‘Let’s just focus on this sideshow over here.’” Rumors circulated for months that Wilde and her “Don’t Worry Darling” lead Florence Pugh feuded on set. Social media users spent much of the film’s press tour hunting for confirmation wherever they could find it, be it Pugh’s lack of social media promotion for the movie or the duo keeping their distance during the film’s Venice Film Festival world premiere. Then drama erupted around Shia LaBeouf’s exit from the film, with LaBeouf leaking a video of Wilde trying to get him back despite clear reservations from Pugh over working with him. And don’t forget about the video of Harry Styles allegedly spitting on Chris Pine (both of their reps denied such an act took place).

Rachel Maddow is having a hard time wrapping her head around the concept of election deniers who are running in political races this year. On Monday night, the MSNBC host sincerely questioned how those people who deny the 2020 election results expect to be, well, fairly elected.Appearing on “The Tonight Show” and sitting with host Jimmy Fallon, Maddow noted that in new findings from The Washington Post, “a numerical majority of the Republican candidates don’t believe in the last election results.” In fact, many are campaigning on the lie that the election was “stolen” thanks to voter fraud (which has been disproven multiple times since the election ended).“So that’s hard, ’cause if you don’t believe elections are the way we decide who’s in power, how exactly would you like us to choose you?” Maddow said.
