Chris Pratt is sharing how his faith helps him deal with the criticism that comes from being in the spotlight. In a recent interview with Page Six, the Guardians of the Galaxy actor compared his experience to that of Jesus.
When the outlet asked if he's faced criticism for being open about his faith, Pratt said, "I sure do but that's nothing new, that's nothing new, you know?"
Quoting the Bible, the Parks and Recreation star continued, "If I was of this world, they would love me just like that but as it is, I've chosen out of this world. That's John 15:18 through 20."
Referring to Jesus, Pratt added, "That's the way it is, nothing new, 2,000 years ago they hated him, too."
Kaley Cuoco is impressed with Tom Pelphrey's fathering skills. Speaking about her boyfriend with People, the Flight Attendant actress said, "I cannot believe how natural he is, how much he loves it."
Cuoco and Pelphrey welcomed their first child together, baby Matilda, earlier this year. "I mean, when we were in the hospital, he did everything — every diaper, he's the swaddle king," she said. "All the nurses said, 'Oh my God, you're the best guy swaddler we've ever seen.'"
Cuoco added that the Ozark actor "just loves" Matilda. "She looks exactly like him. And he has a very distinct voice, so when he talks to her, she's like 360. Her head turns around, and she's like, 'I know that voice.' It's very sweet," the Big Bang Theory star said.
Nick Cannon is saying his piece when it comes to being a father to 11 children with six different women. The Wild ‘N Out star spoke with The Los Angeles Times in an interview published Sunday (May 7th) about being designated a "deadbeat dad."
"I've been villainized," he told the outlet. "I hear all the time: ‘You can't be present for all those children.' So therefore I get this ‘deadbeat dad' title."
Cannon added that what matters is how his kids feel when he's around. "It's not about what I do for you or what I say to you, it's about how you feel when I'm with you. If you feel loved when you see your dad, that's what's gonna resonate," he said.

The show's season six finale airs on May 19th. "SWAT is the most diverse show on CBS. CBS, when I got hired to be Hondo on SWAT, was getting a lot of flak for lack of diversity. If I post this, and I think I might, I will get in a lot of trouble with CBS because I'm calling them out. Because they've been wonderful to me for 26 out of my 29-year career," Moore said in a video posted to Instagram. "But to abruptly get told that you're canceled when you led us to believe last week — and the week before, and the week before that — that we would have some semblance of a season seven to at least say goodbye, if not continue. And to abruptly be told, ‘You're done.'"

During an interview on PBS' Firing Line With Margaret Hoover, the Oscar-winning actor said, "It's an art. No one should be telling me as an artist that I have to give in to the latest, most current idea of what morality is. What are we risking? Are we really risking hurting people's feelings? You can't legislate that," He added, "You have to let life be life. I'm sorry, I don't think there is a minority or majority in the country that has to be catered to like that."

The name of Khloé Kardashian and Tristan Thompson's son has finally been revealed.
The US Sun reports that the former couple named their baby boy Tatum Robert.
The insider told the outlet, "There was talk about whether it should be Tatum Robert or should it be Robert Tatum," a source told the outlet in an article published Thursday. Some in the family were leaning more towards Robert, because it honors her dad and her brother.

Mark Hamill paid a sweet tribute to his Star Wars co-star, Carrie Fisher, at her Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony Thursday (May 4th).
The actor read from a note he wrote about Fisher shortly after her death. In his speech, he said, "Carrie was one of a kind. She belonged to us all, whether we liked it or not. She was our princess, dammit! And the actress who played her blurred into one gorgeous, fearlessly independent, ferociously funny, take charge woman who took our collective breath away. Determined and tough, but with a vulnerability that made you root for her and want her to succeed and be happy. She played such a crucial role in my professional and personal life. Both would've been far emptier without her."
Hamill stuck around to help Fisher's daughter, Billie Lourd, unveil her mother's star.
The Scream Queens star poured glitter on the star itself and told the crowd, "My mom was glitter. She covered her world in it both literally and metaphorically. She left a mark of her sparkle on everyone she met."
