  • Auditioning for Trump?

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Featuring Famous People: Amanda Knox
Q: At what point did you realize that you were someone that people all over the world knew?
I first realized the scale of the case when I saw news vans surrounding my house, even before I was arrested.
Featuring Famous People: Bruce Vilanch
Q: Why do you think Jamie Lee Curtis won over Angela Bassett for supporting actress?
The new voting body fell in love with everything everywhere all over your face, and Angela kind of got lost in the rush. Both are great stories, but Jamie Lee's Hollywood connection may have swayed the Academy.

Dennis Rodman with Deanna Cheng

Dennis Rodman represents a unique straddling of sports and pop culture, taming expectations around masculinity and sexuality, and resonating with various communities as well as raising awareness.
