Celebrity Status – Serena, Johnny, TIFF And Groot
For Wednesday, August 10th:
It seems a number of big name Hollywood stars are quietly removing their support for Johnny Depp after court documents were unsealed last month that included graphic texts between Depp and Marilyn Manson, a text from his assistant that appeared to back up some of Amber Heard’s claims and more. Robert Downey Jr., Elle Fanning, Bella Hadid, Orlando Bloom and more have unliked his Instagram. Meanwhile, Johnny has re-signed his contract with Dior as a face of its Sauvage fragrance.
Serena Williams used her Vogue cover story to announce she’s planning to retire from tennis after playing in this year’s U.S. Open. She plans to focus on Serena Ventures, her venture capital firm, and growing her family with Reddit co-founder husband Alexis Ohanian.
Fred Savage has been accused of sexual harassment and assault by six women. He was let go earlier this year from the Wonder Years re-boot. 20th Television confirmed inappropriate conduct at that time without revealing any further details.
Taika Waititi and Rita Ora are reportedly married. A source tells The Sun the pair wed in an intimate ceremony in London, and she’s changed her surname to Waititi-Ora.
The Toronto International Film Festival’s official announcement of its closing night pick, ‘Daliland,’ left Ezra Miller off the cast list, presumably to disassociate itself from the long list of issues he’s had this year.
The finale of So You Think You Can Dance is on tonight and ‘I Am Groot’ comes to Disney + today
