| Legendary Icon Cicely Tyson Dies at 96: "Her Power and Grace Will Be With Us Forever" - POPSUGAR Posted: 28 Jan 2021 05:46 PM PST  The world suffered a great loss when Cicely Tyson died on Thursday. The Emmy- and Tony-winning actress's manager, Larry Thompson, announced her death in a statement to Variety that read: "I have managed Miss Tyson's career for over 40 years, and each year was a privilege and blessing. Cicely thought of her new memoir as a Christmas tree decorated with all the ornaments of her personal and professional life. Today she placed the last ornament, a Star, on top of the tree." She was 96. Cicely made her film debut with her role in 1957's Twelve Angry Men, and she starred in numerous TV shows and movies, including Sounder, The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman, Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All, The Help, and How to Get Away with Murder. She also appeared in several Broadway plays, such as The Trip to Bountiful and The Gin Game. In 2018, she made history by becoming the first Black woman to win an honorary Oscar, and two years later, she was honored with the Peabody Career Achievement Award for her decades-long career. Throughout her career, Cicely solidified herself as a pioneer for Black actresses by refusing to take on roles that were demeaning to Black women and addressing important social issues like gender and race. "I used my career as my platform in an effort to address these issues, and every now and then when I receive an achievement award I realize that I did make the right choices," she previously told People. "The sacrifices that I made as a result were worth it." From Yara Shahidi to Zendaya to Shonda Rhimes, see how stars are remembering the legendary icon ahead.  |

| Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson Are ‘Excited’ to Move Into Their New Malibu Home - Us Weekly Posted: 29 Jan 2021 03:08 PM PST Pack it up! Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson are ready to start the next chapter of their lives in their joint Malibu pad. The Coldplay singer, 43, and the High Note actress, 31, bought their new home "together," a source exclusively tells Us Weekly. "They are really thrilled and happy with their purchase." The couple, who have been dating for more than three years, are "very excited to move in," the insider adds.  Us confirmed on Thursday, January 28, that the pair dropped millions on a California home in the Malibu neighborhood of Los Angeles just over three years after Us confirmed their romance in December 2017. A source previously told Us that the new estate will be the couple's "primary residence" and marks their first official place together. The home features six bedrooms and nine bathrooms and sits on 5,338 square feet. It is a "modern Cape Cod-style" house that the pair settled on after looking at properties for "many months," the source explained. The insider noted that they got it at a "huge discount," adding that the new digs are worth $12.5 million. Martin and Johnson's moving news came one month after the lovebirds sparked engagement speculation when the Fifty Shades of Grey star was spotted wearing a massive emerald ring on her left hand in December 2020. The couple were first linked three years prior after taking a trip to Israel and showing PDA. The romance began after Martin's divorce from ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow was finalized in July 2016. The British musician and the Goop founder, 48, who share daughter Apple, 16, and son Moses, 14, announced their "conscious uncoupling" in March 2014 after 11 years of marriage. Paltrow has since moved on with Brad Falchuk, whom she married in September 2018.  The foursome have a "very friendly" relationship, a source exclusively told Us in October 2020, saying, "They genuinely enjoy being together and there's a lot of love for one another on all sides." A year prior, Johnson spoke about her private romance with the "Yellow" crooner, telling Tatler in September 2018 that she is "very happy." The pair also have the approval of their families, including Johnson's mother, Melanie Griffith. "I adore [Chris]," Griffith, 63, exclusively told Us in May 2018. "She is very private about her life and I respect that." Listen to Us Weekly's Hot Hollywood as each week the editors of Us break down the hottest entertainment news stories! |
