Saturday Night Live may be on their summer hiatus, but that doesn’t mean that the show has stayed out of the headlines. It announced this week that popular cast members Taran Killam and Jay Pharoah would not be returning for the upcoming season. 

Killam took to Twitter and not surprisingly expressed a little humour referencing his departure.

Pharoah also took to social media, posting a picture of himself, Killam and cast mate Vanessa Bayer, referring to them as his “family”.

Tired of being subject of nasty, racist taunts on Twitter, Normani Kordei of Fifth Harmony decided to take a break from Twitter. She wrote the following to her fans…

 

Look out for Britney Spears to appear on The Late Late Show with James Corden’s ‘Carpool Karaoke’ on August 25th. The next day, her new album, ‘Glory’ will drop!

Dwayne “The Rock: Johnson channeled his WWE persona and laid the SMACKDOWN on his ‘Fast 8’ co-stars this week by calling out some of the male cast as for being “candy asses”. 

This is my final week of shooting #FastAndFurious8. There's no other franchise that gets my blood boiling more than this one. An incredible hard working crew. UNIVERSAL has been great partners as well. My female co-stars are always amazing and I love 'em. My male co-stars however are a different story. Some conduct themselves as stand up men and true professionals, while others don't. The ones that don't are too chicken shit to do anything about it anyway. Candy asses. When you watch this movie next April and it seems like I'm not acting in some of these scenes and my blood is legit boiling – you're right. Bottom line is it'll play great for the movie and fits this Hobbs character that's embedded in my DNA extremely well. The producer in me is happy about this part. Final week on FAST 8 and I'll finish strong. #IcemanCometh #F8 #ZeroToleranceForCandyAsses

Not surprisingly, many speculated on who exactly he was talking about. Well, it appears as though Vin Diesel may have been the target of The Rock’s criticism. Reports are that the two of butt heads. 

Vin Diesel took to Instagram to subtly address the rumoured drama on set by letting everyone know how happy he was. 

 

Like father like son! Drake’s dad Dennis Graham is releasing an R&B album led by the first single “Kinda Crazy”! Can’t wait for this, and will we see father and son collaborate? That would be EPIC!

 

Meet Stephen Rogata. For some reason he decided to climb the Trump Tower in New York City using only suction cups and of course it was live streamed and viewed by millions on social media.

He was eventually grabbed by the NYPD.

Prior to his little adventure, Rogata did record an awkward video that still leaves us with more questions than answers.
