Just hours after a premiere of Louis C.K.’s new film I Love You, Daddy was canceled on Nov.9, The New York Times published an article in which five women accused the comedian of sexual misconduct dating back to the late ’90s. Among them were Chicago comedy duo Julia Wolov and Dana Min Good man, who claimed that in 2002, LouisC.K., now 50, took off his clothes and masturbated while they hung out after a comedy festival in Aspen. Comedian Rebecca Corry said that when she was filming a TV pilot with Louis C.K. in 2005, he asked if he could go back to her dressing room and masturbate in front of her. The Emmy winner, who has often joked about masturbation in his stand up routine, confirmed in a Nov.…

She’s the Youngest Child of Andie MacDowell Qualley says her famous mom(right) goes easy on acting advice: “She really just gives me motherly advice.” (Her dad is rancher and former model Paul Qualley, and she has two older siblings.) “I’m really close with my family. I can lean on them.” She played Justin Theroux’s daughter in The Left overs “It felt like high-pressure acting school because I got to work with a different director every time,” she says of her first professional TV gig. “But I still have so much to learn.” She Started Off As a Dancer “I never thought about acting,” says Qualley, who apprenticed with the American Ballet Theatre before gaining fame dancing in Spike Jonze’s viral video Kenzo World. “But I took an acting class…

After nearly 20 years you’re back with Tameka “Tiny” Harris, La Tocha and Tamika Scott from your band Xscape. Why? It wasn’t planned. A network was going to do an unauthorized movie, and we were trying to get our story told the right way. But before I could move forward, I needed a public apology from Tamika [for a long standing beef]. We did it on the radio, and the deejay was like, “Xscape is back!” And then we had offers! How is the group dynamic now? It’s always drama, because four women have reunited after 18 years, and we all think differently when it comes to business. I feel like I’m always made to be the villain! It’s stressful. Has the reunion been received well? Oh my God, the…

Ewan McGregor & Mary Elizabeth Winstead Is it official? On Nov. 11 Ewan McGregor and his Fargo costar Mary Elizabeth Winstead, 32, stepped out in public for the first time (holding hands and both wearing leather jackets and jeans), less than a month after they were first spotted kissing at a London cafe. On Oct. 23 the Scottish actor, 46, announced he was separated from Eve Mavrakis, his wife of 22 years, with whom he has four children; Winstead split with her husband, writer Riley Stearns, in May. Chloë Grace Moretz & Brooklyn Beckham The actress, 20, and her boyfriend, 18, have been inseparable since rekindling a romance in August—and now they’re sporting matching gold bands with each other’s initials. “Luckiest person on earth,” Beckham captioned a photo of their…

Drama Club, which began in 2013, brings theater programs to teens and young adults who are in detention centers or incarcerated on Riker’s Island. I heard about it through my friend Josie Whittlesey, the executive director, and I got involved because I knew how transformative acting was in terms of giving my life direction. I started with fund-raising, and now I’m on the board. The kids we serve at Riker’s are between the ages of 16 and 21. A lot of the mare there because they’re awaiting trial or they can’t make bail. With Drama Club they can act out their frustrations and work together to develop intimate bonds in a very dangerous environment. They open up in ways they never thought they could. At one of the performances, one…

‘I FEEL LIKE PEOPLE KNOW WHAT I LOOK LIKE, AND THERE’S NO REASON NOT TO EMBRACE WHO I AM ANYMORE’—BLAKE SHELTON Blake Shelton really hates being the center of attention. So when it came to his being named 2017’s Sexiest Man Alive, his girlfriend of two years, Gwen Stefani, had to take charge. “She goes, ‘Listen to me,’” recalls the country-music star. “‘You’re going to regret this for the rest of your life if you don’t take this gift and just live in the moment.’” Rightly so. Having just released his album Texoma Shore and a Christmas duet with Stefani, the 6'5" Oklahoma-bred Shelton, 41, is embracing a new pace in life. But what he’s most looking forward to is sticking the title to his fellow judge on NBC’s The…

Idris ELBA, 45 SEXIEST HEARTTHROB In the handsome Brit’s film The Mountain Between Us, he and Kate Winslet had to spend hours freezing in the snow to portray planecrash survivors in the Utah mountains. But in real life Elba’s heart was melting for his new girlfriend, Canadian model Sabrina Dhowre. “I’ve fallen in love while making a movie about falling in love,”he says. “It’s pretty special.” Zac EFRON, 30 SEXIEST THRILL-SEEKER He jumped off a cliff with Bear Grylls and swam with a tiger shark, so it’s not surprising that the Greatest Showman and The Disaster Artist actor, who turned 30 last month, sees more adventures in his future: “I want to seek out projects outside of my comfort zone,” he says. “I want to have fun and color outside…

David Muir, 44 World News Tonight, ABC Connecting with viewers (“I tweet back during commercial breaks”) is as important as getting out of the anchor’s chair, so Muir’s weekends are for farflung reporting—on refugees in Jordan, famine in Somaliland. “Curiosity is what drives me.” Anderson Cooper, 50 AC 360, CNN He didn’t know his on-air eye roll (“it was unconscious”) at Kellyanne Conway went viral. “I don’t Google myself,” he says. And he doesn’t recognize in his mirror the “silver fox” of lusty online headlines. “The albino salamander under a rock who hasn’t seen light— that’s how I view myself.” Charles Blow, 47 The New York Times The columnist doesn’t hold back on Trump (“lying... chieftain of spite”) or give trolls an opening. “I block all day,” says the divorced…

In The Star, you play the Virgin Mary: What was it like lending your voice to her? It was an honor and a blessing. She was just so badass. I really liked that. Did you get to meet Oprah, who also costars in the movie? I actually already met her—I went to her SuperSoul 100 last year, so I’ve been lucky to have been in the same space as Oprah. She’s a saint! What is the perfect day for you? Being with my boyfriend [Joe LoCicero], who is my best friend; boxing at some point; laughing with a sibling; exchanging a serendipitous moment with a stranger. You’re an awesome boxer. What inspires you to keep fit? It puts me in a space that now, no matter what weight I am,…

ALL THE NEWS & BUZZ FROM HOLLYWOOD TAYLOR SWIFT’S MILLIONS OF fans are used to combing through her lyrics, which attempt to set the record straight about the 27-year-old multi-millionaire’s heartbreaks, feuds and tricky relationship with fame. In August Swift returned with the single “Look What You Made Me Do” and declared her whole some old persona “dead.” The Nov. 10 release of her album Reputation (her first since 2014’s poppy 1989) makes it clear that Swift 2.0 is not so interested in the public’s opinion of her. “My reputation’s never been worse, so you must like me for me,” she declares on the song “Delicate.” Of course most have long understood that underneath her prom-queen smile, Swift has always been fiercely driven—and tough as nails. Still, her music retains…

Patton Oswalt wants the world to know that out of deep tragedy can come unexpected joy. Nineteen months after the actor’s wife, Michelle McNamara, died in her sleep at 46, he got remarried to actress Meredith Salenger. “It feels like an evolution,” says Oswalt, 48. “After the darkness, I went through all the ways I had to strengthen myself to try to recognize joy again. Meredith was a beacon that I had to reach for.” ‘WHEN I MET MEREDITH, MY REALITY SHIFTED INTO SOMETHING BRIGHTER’ —PATTON OSWALT The couple, who first met in May, got engaged in July and wed Nov. 4 in Los Angeles. Alice, Oswalt’s 8-year-old daughter with McNamara, served as flower girl and joined the newly weds for their first dance. “She was twirling around us like…

When Joshua Rush found out he’d be playing the Disney Channel’s first gay main character, the 15-year old says he felt an over whelming sense of pride. “It was so exciting and so powerful to realize that Disney approved this,” Rush says of his role on the network’s teen series Andi Mack. In season 2 of the coming-of-age show, Rush’s character, Cyrus, realizes he is gay and comes out to his friends, starting with Buffy (Sofia Wylie). “It makes me feel like I’m making a difference,” says the Houston native. “I was the first person that one of my good friends came out to, and I think that if I’d had someone like Buffy on TV, I would’ve been a better friend in that situation.” For the Disney Channel the…

There’s no denying Wendy Williams loves drama. So when the 53-year-old, dressed in a glittery tunic as the Statue of Liberty, collapsed during the Halloween episode of her talk show, viewers assumed it was a stunt. It wasn’t. Williams, who has never missed a day of work in more than nine seasons, had fainted from dehydration. “I’m glad it happened on air. You know me, let me get a rating out of it!” she says. Fans of The Wendy Williams Show, which aired its 1,500th episode on Nov. 13, can trust Williams will always keep it real—“though sometimes my honesty burns bridges,” she admits. As for dealing with scrutiny over her body or her marriage, Williams uses her show as a platform to set the record straight. “People talk,” she…

It wasn’t until I started seeing other doctors and athletic trainers that I began to realize that their methods were far different from Larry’s. When I lay on my stomach to have my hamstrings worked on, towels were draped over my hips and buttocks for privacy and to ensure that there was no inappropriate skin-toskin contact. They never, ever crossed any lines in where they massaged. And there was never a moment when their methods made me uncomfortable. It was different with Larry. I would lie on the table, my hands involuntarily balling them selves into fists as his ungloved hands worked their way under my clothing. “Treatment sessions” with him always made me feel tense and uncomfortable.... The first time I met [Larry], I was fifteen and in a…

She’s been a star for almost 40 years, a three-time Oscar nominee and a perennial beauty icon. But Michelle Pfeiffer is still intimidated by her heroines. The first time she saw costar Judi Dench on the set of Murder on the Orient Express, “I sort of said, ‘Hi,’ and then I just started to cry,” Pfeiffer says. “I’m just so in awe of her talent and grace. It’s sort of like who you want to be when you grow up.” At 59, Pfeiffer is a legend in the making. After keeping a low profile while raising a family with husband David E. Kelley, she is in demand, starring as Ruth Madoff with Robert De Niro in HBO’s Wizard of Lies, Jennifer Lawrence’s tormentor in mother! and a my sterious widow…

Drew & Jonathan SCOTT The 39-year-old identical twins and stars of HGTV’s Property Brothers don’t have everything in common. “I am hands down the more romantic brother,” says Jonathan, who has been dating Jacinta Kuznetsov since 2015. “I gotta up my game,” jokes Drew, who’s planning his spring wedding to fiancée Linda Phan. “But I’m definitely stronger, more sporty and better-looking!” Gustaf, Bill & Alexander SKARSGARD Scary Swedes!

Whether her face is expertly bronzed and highlighted or completely makeup-free, Kim Kardashian West always turns heads. And now that the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star has lent her beauty expertise to a line of KKW Beauty contour kits—which at launch sold out in less than three hours—and most recently a KKW Fragrance collection (bottom left), it’s the perfect time to find out what’s on her vanity and get her thoughts on being labeled a beauty icon: “I don’t feel overwhelmed by it.

Last Game I Played I play a lot of cards. The trouble with card games is that I can never remember the name of them and then I can never remember the rules, so somebody has to explain them to me. Again. For the 93rd time. Last Guilty Pleasure Oh God, I mean they come thick and fast. I’ve been trying to cut out sugar, but there’s a little bakery around the corner where I live in Paris. I had some friends for lunch today, so I thought I’d buy a packet of these little sable biscuits. I said, “Do you have smaller sizes of the bags?” And she said, “Yes, but they last for a long time.” And I said, “I know, that’s the problem!” Last Time I Cried…

Congrats, Blake! It’s been a stressful year for America. And so when it came time for our annual ritual of silliness—crowning 2017’s Sexiest Man Alive—we looked for a guy who would have some fun with it and show us a really good time. Blake Shelton is the perfect man for the job. Our favorite good ol’ boy never takes himself too seriously, and his considerable charm has helped turn The Voice into one of TV’s biggest hits. Watching him fall in love with Gwen Stefani has only made us like him more. And frankly, we really wanted to see Sexiest Man Alive 2013 Adam Levine’s face when he heard the news. (It’s just like the rivalry between Brad Pitt and George Clooney—or maybe Bette Davis and Joan Crawford. Let’s see…

In Roman J. Israel, Esq., you play a brilliant, eccentric lawyer on the autism spectrum. What research did you do to prepare for the role? I started doing a lot of research about A sperger’s syndrome. I kept asking myself, “Why is he like this? Why is he alone?” He’s an unusual guy; I like him. I feel for him. What inspired his do? Ha! I felt like he was stuck somewhere in ’77. I looked at my own pictures, and I Googled “black men in 1977.” How long did it take to grow out? Six, seven months. If you go back and look at photos from Oscar time [last year], I kept trying to pack the hair down to hide it. I should’ve kept it! What do your kids…

Just last year Jordin Sparks swore off love. After a couple of high-profile relationships ended in heartbreak, the 27-year-old singer and actress— whose powerful pipes earned her the crown on the sixth season of American Idol 10 years ago—“surrendered that part of my life,” she says from her cozy Los Angeles home. “I’d gone through a crazy time, so I was just like, ‘I’m good. I’m going to stay single.’” But after a year of soul searching, Sparks met Dana Isaiah in April and fell instantly for the 25-year-old model from Dallas. Only three months later the pair secretly exchanged vows during a spur-of-the-moment ceremony in Hawaii; six weeks later they found out they were expecting a baby. The initial shock has worn off, and Sparks is now fully embracing…

PROFESSION ACTOR BORN SEOUL LIVES LOS ANGELES Humble Beginnings Born in South Korea in 1972, Cho lived simply with his family before emigrating to the U.S. in 1978. “It was a time in Korea when there were very few modern conveniences,” he says. “We didn’t have a bathroom inside or a refrigerator. When you wanted chicken, you pointed at an animal that was clucking.” Still, he says, “it was a happy childhood.” Falling Into Film “I stumbled into acting as a student at U.C. Berkeley but had no idea where it would go,” says Cho, who notes he was very aware that there were few people in Hollywood who looked like him. His father, aminister, suggested an alternative career: new scaster. “He was saying, ‘You get to be on-camera, and…

‘Gossip is news running ahead of itself in a red satin dress’ —LIZ SMITH Legendary gossip columnist Liz Smith, whose syndicated column appeared in nearly 70 newspapers at the peak of her fame, died at her home in New York City on Sunday Nov. 12, at age 94. Read by millions, her “Liz Smith” column chronicled the lives of the famous and fabulous, many of whom Smith openly adored.

She made no apologies for her work in the tabloid trenches, once quipping, “Gossip is news running ahead of itself in a red satin dress.” But rather than…

Milo VENTIMIGLIA, 40 The veteran actor enjoys a good throw back. “I feel like I’m living my childhood again but as an adult,” Ventimiglia says of playing the Pearson family patriarch. “Men in the ’80s had a different view of manhood. Jack is not emotional by design. I’m private, but things definitely grab at my heart.” As for the onscreen physical transformations over decades? “1989 Jack is my favorite,” Ventimiglia says. “Just a mustache and no hair extensions!” Sterling K. BROWN, 41 He may have been a varsity football player, student-council president and theater star, but the actor says that he was once “deathly afraid” of speaking to women. “I would get tongue-tied and flush with sweat,” Brown admits. “I had zero game.” Now happily married to actress Ryan Michelle…
