CAN MEG RYAN BRING BACK THE ROM-COM?

Meg Ryan is officially back! After an 8 year hiatus from Hollywood, Meg is returning to the big screen this November with David Duchovny in What Happens Later, which she also co-wrote and directed. We’ve been told that’s only the beginning of Meg’s return to filming. Behind closed doors she’s plotting to return to the Continue reading “CAN MEG RYAN BRING BACK THE ROM-COM?”

THE GREY BEARD ISN’T DOING RUSSELL CROWE ANY FAVORS

Another grey beard making the wearer – in this case, Russell Crowe- look WAY less attractive. Remember, back in 2000, Russell and Meg Ryan costarred in Proof of Life and fell hard for each other. He was a hot commodity in those days. Meg left her husband Dennis Quaid for him! Eventually the infatuation fizzled Continue reading “THE GREY BEARD ISN’T DOING RUSSELL CROWE ANY FAVORS”

MEG RYAN: WHO NEEDS ACTING WHEN YOU CAN FLIP?

MOVE OVER Tarek El Moussa (from HGTV) because Meg Ryan is offering some major competition when it comes to house flipping! She’s been flipping for quite awhile, but Meg’s recent flip is worth noting. During the pandemic in Feb 2020, the When Harry Met Sally star bought a home in Montecito for $5.05 million. She Continue reading “MEG RYAN: WHO NEEDS ACTING WHEN YOU CAN FLIP?”

MEG RYAN: TO FLIP OR NOT TO FLIP?

Meg Ryan wanted her last split with John Mellencamp in November to be absolutely final, so in February she left New York and bought a house in Montecito, California, not far from Prince Harry and Meghan. Like Cameron Diaz, Meg has pretty much dropped out of Hollywood and she’s concentrating on flipping properties like Diane Continue reading “MEG RYAN: TO FLIP OR NOT TO FLIP?”

GEOGRAPHY IS WHAT BROKE UP MEG RYAN AND JOHN MELLENCAMP

Meg Ryan looks like she’s making the best of being single in New York. She and John Mellencamp, 68, just split up for the second time after being engaged for a year. John has implied that Meg wants to get married, but for him, three marriages is enough. We think he gave her the engagement Continue reading “GEOGRAPHY IS WHAT BROKE UP MEG RYAN AND JOHN MELLENCAMP”

MEG RYAN HAS A SECRET

Meg Ryan may LOOK like she’s turned off by John Mellencamp’s chainsmoking in this photo, but apparently she is NOT. They’ve been together off and on for over seven years and since last November, officially engaged. In all the photos we’ve seen of them together, he is very often smoking. How does she tolerate all Continue reading “MEG RYAN HAS A SECRET”

JACK QUAID: ROMANTIC COMEDIES RUN IN THE FAMILY

Jack Quaid, 27, definitely inherited his mother Meg Ryan’s smile, and that won’t do him any harm in his film career. The NYU grad got his first break in The Hunger Games in 2012, and now he’s starring in a romantic comedy, Plus One, at the Tribeca Film Festival. (It got decent reviews and was Continue reading “JACK QUAID: ROMANTIC COMEDIES RUN IN THE FAMILY”

MEG RYAN AND BILLY CRYSTAL CLAIM TO BE FRIENDS

Love this photo of Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal at the 2019 TCM Classic Film Festival opening night gala in Hollywood. Can you believe it? It’s been THIRTY years since When Harry Met Sally was released! If you remember, this film posed the question: “Can men and women really be friends?” Our answer would be Continue reading “MEG RYAN AND BILLY CRYSTAL CLAIM TO BE FRIENDS”

MEG RYAN IS GOING BACK TO TV

We haven’t seen Meg Ryan onscreen for some time, and that’s because she is now aiming for a career in directing and producing. Meg has been pitching movie and series ideas to studios and one seems to be paying off. SNL’s Lorne Michaels loves her original idea for a series called The Obsolescents and he’s Continue reading “MEG RYAN IS GOING BACK TO TV”

JOHN AND MEG: WHO NEEDS MARRIAGE?

John Mellencamp, 66, and Meg Ryan, 56, braved a few sprinkles of rain as they strolled arm in arm in Soho today. After a number of bust-ups through the years (during one split John hooked up with Christie Brinkley) John and Meg have both made concessions. She puts up with his smoking and he spends Continue reading “JOHN AND MEG: WHO NEEDS MARRIAGE?”
