Pamela Anderson breaks silence on Meghan Markle's 'rip off' show
Pamela Anderson has finally spoken out on viral claims Meghan Markle 'ripped off' her cooking show with Netflix series , With Love, Meghan. Fans of the Baywatch bombshell, 58, were left incensed when the former working Royal, 44, debuted her latest TV venture - which bore eerie similarities to Pamela's Cooking With Love, which premiered earlier this year on Prime Video. The Baywatch star Anderson opened up on Sunday's Watch What Happens Live! - with host Andy Cohen asking her: 'On a scale from one to 10, how much of a rip-off did you feel like With Love, Meghan was of your show, Pamela's Cooking with Love?' Anderson, who was appearing alongside new love and co-star Liam Neeson responded: 'One. I didn't - I didn't really look, but I mean, I didn't invent cooking shows' adding that Markle 'is just doing her thing.' The drama erupted when Prince Harry 's wife gave People magazine some of her top domestic tips ahead of the release of With Love, Meghan, in March. These included how to 'elevate' a normal dinner – such as after ordering a takeaway, for example. Citing Chinese as a favorite delivery option, Markle told the US magazine: 'I like being able to do a hybrid, but even when I get a takeout I will try to plate it beautifully.' And discussing her new trademark As Ever – after she failed to secure copyright branding for her original name, American Riviera Orchard – she insisted: 'It's a learning curve. 'I appreciate everyone who gave me the grace to make mistakes and figure it out and also be forgiving with myself through that.' The two former TV stars live more than a thousand miles apart, yet both were smiling and giggling in brightly lit country kitchens, filming aspirational cooking with photogenic friends and famous celebrities. Both are seen carrying wicker baskets of fruit and vegetables picked from their gardens, dancing with joy, and gleefully high-fiving their celebrity guests. Both series are even the same length: eight episodes. When Meghan's first episode was shown, it prompted withering complaints that she had copied Pamela's winning formula. 'So similar it's freaky,' said one reviewer, while others branded Meghan's series 'inauthentic' and 'copycat'. More charitable observers might put this down to coincidence, as neither show seems to deviate from the wholesome template of many an aspirational cookery program. However, while Markle filmed her series last summer, with the first trailer making its debut in January, Anderson's was commissioned back in February 2023 by Canadian broadcaster Flavour Network. And its trailer has been available for all to see since last October. Last month it was claimed Markle and Prince Harry's hopes of a new Netflix deal are 'dead' after their two most recent shows flopped. Meghan's lifestyle show failed to break into Netflix 's top 300 programs for the first half of 2025 and was even thrashed by multiple seasons of Suits. A second season of With Love, Meghan, was announced by the Duchess herself as the first season came out in March this year as part of the couple's $100million deal with the streaming giant, which expires this year.

Sydney Sweeney trolled over 'bad fashion genes' as outfit is savagely mocked at Americana premiere
Fans mercilessly blasted Sydney Sweeney 's fashion sense as she has been embroiled in controversy over an American Eagle ad which has led to US President Donald Trump anointing her his anti-woke queen. The 27-year-old actress - who was publicly heckled over the matter - was dragged over her busty look as she a bustier gown with tulle skirt, which was custom made by bridal designer Danielle Frankel, at the Hollywood premiere of her film Americana on Sunday. However, she was skewered over her fashion choices especially when it came to a pale yellow $18 Bahay Kubo 'Bahay' Headband she rocked with the ensemble as she was dressed by stylist Molly Dickson. It was over Sweeney's controversial American Eagle campaign, which was accused of pushing Nazi-like eugenics as aspirational. 'Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality, and even eye color,' Sydney said in the commercial. 'My jeans are blue.' The newly-registered Republican has yet to publicly address the backlash to her controversial American Eagle campaign. The outfit was posted on celebrity fashion Instagram page Check The Tag and commenters were not kind about the look and her controversy. One referenced her American Eagle ad as they wrote: 'Who's responsible for her bad fashion genes?' 'Literally WHAT is the point of that headband?,' an Instagram user wrote as another remarked: 'The headband, the shape of the dress and length are not doing it for her. She needs to fire her stylist.' Hairstylist Glen Oropeza coiffed Sweeney's extension-filled brown waves and make-up artist Melissa Hernandez brought out her natural blue eyes with mascara and brushed-up brows at the gala. At the same event, the A-lister was heckled when walking into the screening. A woman called her names when she arrived at the event, according to a Monday report from TMZ. Last Friday, American Eagle CEO Jay Schottenstein issued a statement stressing that the spot 'is and always was about the jeans' and noted that 'great jeans look good on everyone.' The $3.3B denim brand's white supremacy accusations have definitely caused the stock price to dip over the past week. But a source claimed to TMZ last Wednesday that 'independent polling shows the vast majority of folks — around 70 percent — find the commercial appealing.' The Pittsburgh-based fashion retailer pledged to donate 100 percent of the proceeds from 'The Sydney Jean' (featuring a butterfly patch representing domestic violence awareness) to mental health support non-profit, Crisis Text Line. In Americana, Sydney plays an aspiring country singer and South Dakota waitress called Penny Jo Poplin in Lionsgate's modern-day western, which hits US theaters August 15 and UK theaters August 22. That's technically two years after Americana's world premiere at South by Southwest and three years after production wrapped. The long-delayed crime thriller — formerly known as National Anthem — also stars Halsey, Paul Walter Hauser, and Eric Dane. The $3.3B denim brand's white supremacy accusations have definitely caused the stock price to dip over the past week The 30-year-old blue-haired pop star — who plays Mandy Starr — bared her tattooed sleeves in a white corseted turtleneck top, bedazzled blue jeans, and white lacy pumps selected by stylist Lyn Alyson. Halsey (born Ashley Frangipane) and Sweeney were joined on the black carpet by their castmate Simon Rex — who plays Roy Lee Dean — and director Tony Tost. The Spokane-born, LA-raised bombshell will next portray the real-life German settler Margret Wittmer in Ron Howard's $50M-budget survival thriller Eden — hitting US theaters August 22 — alongside Jude Law, Ana de Armas, and Daniel Brühl. Sydney recently reprised her breakout role as Cassie Howard in the eight-episode third season of HBO hit show Euphoria, which is produced by and starring Zendaya as Ruby 'Rue' Bennett. Sam Levinson's drug-fueled drama will welcome newcomers Sharon Stone, Rosalía, Marshawn Lynch and Kadeem Hardison in season three. In January, Sweeney was hard at work executive producing and starring in Paul Feig's big-screen adaptation of Freida McFadden's 2022 novel The Housemaid, which Lionsgate plans to release in time for Christmas. On November 25, the Fifty–Fifty Films co-founder wrapped her role as professional boxer Christy Martin in David Michôd's untitled biopic, which she called 'one of the most emotional, transformative experiences of my life.' In Americana, Sydney plays an aspiring country singer and South Dakota waitress called Penny Jo Poplin in Lionsgate's modern-day western, which hits US theaters August 15 and UK theaters August 22 Sydney will soon begin producing and starring in her Euphoria castmate Colman Domingo's feature directorial debut Scandalous! about the love affair between Kim Novak and Sammy Davis Jr. (David Jonsson). Sweeney is very much in demand with several projects in the works including the Reddit-based thriller I Pretended to Be a Missing Girl for Warner Bros, Jon M. Chu's sci-fi flick Split Fiction for Amazon MGM Studios. She's producing Michael Bay's video game adaptation OutRun for Universal. Aside from her movie career, the Echo Valley actress — who boasts 26.1 million social media followers — is every bit the influencer with lucrative paid partnerships for brands like Samsung Mobile USA, Dr. Squatch, LANEIGE US, Bai, and HEYDUDE.

Rosie O'Donnell: Common Knowledge review – sentimental sermon with a self-mocking edge
A month ago, Donald Trump branded comedian Rosie O'Donnell a 'threat to humanity' and threatened to revoke her US citizenship. Judging by this fringe hour, he'd be welcome to it. Common Knowledge is a hymn of praise to O'Donnell's new home, Ireland, where she and her child Clay moved at the time of Trump's inauguration. Clay, who is non-binary, is the other focus of the show, and of their mum's rapturous affections, in a set that's more a love letter to these two presences in the 63-year-old's life than it is let-it-rip comedy. The show is bookended by reflections on O'Donnell's mother, whose death when our host was 10 years old is recounted in a solemn opening. Now a parent to five adopted children, motherhood is clearly a major concern of the comedian, and here we get the whole story, with a slide show, of how Clay arrived in her life. Autistic, prodigiously intelligent, fearlessly truth-telling, this is a child who dismays and instructs their mother in equal measure. That cycle supplies the show's rhythm: we get the funny story about Clay's behaviour, then the earnest lesson O'Donnell has derived from it. That, combined with a sonorous and sentimental quality to the storytelling, can make Common Knowledge more sermon than standup. At points, it's a rallying call for autism awareness. Elsewhere, it plays like a heartfelt thank you to Ireland (which she keeps referring to as 'here') for saving the New Yorker from depression and the disintegrating US, with O'Donnell starry-eyed at how safe, cheap and progressive her perfect new homeland seems to be. But the earnestness is regularly punctured with self-mocking comedy, as with the tale of Rosie and her then teenage son's joint visit to her therapist; or the story of her mistaking the friendliness of her new Irish pharmacist for flirtation, with humiliating consequences. There's no standup cut and thrust to this: O'Donnell cleaves tightly to her script and stately delivery. But the tale she's telling means a lot to her and she tells it authoritatively, and with enough irony, self-reflection and (Trump, take note) humanity – to make it engaging for the rest of us.
