Philadelphia Mayor Declares Nov. 25 Creed Day...
Philadelphia Mayor Michael A. Nutter has proclaimed Nov. 25 Creed Day in honor of the release of the next installment in the Rocky Balboa boxing saga.

Nutter this week announced the news on the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum where he stood alongside the movie's stars Sylvester Stallone, Michael B. Jordan and Tessa Thompson, as well as writer/director Ryan Coogler and producer Irwin Winkler.

From Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures, Warner Bros. Pictures and New Line Cinema, the movie reunites Coogler with his Fruitvale Station star Jordan. Creed is to open in theaters Nov. 25.

"Adonis Johnson never knew his famous father, world heavyweight champion Apollo Creed, who died before he was born," a synopsis said. "Still, there's no denying that boxing is in his blood, so Adonis heads to Philadelphia, the site of Apollo Creed's legendary match with a tough upstart named Rocky Balboa."

Jordan plays Adonis, while Stallone reprises his iconic role of Rocky.

Robert De Niro Slams Tech Mogul Stewart Butterfield Onstage...
Robert De Niro lashed out against tech mogul Stewart Butterfield onstage, taking offense at his comments regarding celebrities.

Page Six reported the spat took place during the Wall Street Journal's Magazine Innovator Awards in New York City on Wednesday. Butterfield, who co-founded Flickr and office messaging application Slack, took the stage before De Niro to accept an award for Technology Innovator. It was then during his acceptance speech that he rubbed De Niro the wrong way.

"We are a long way from San Francisco," joked Butterfield as he scanned the room of "supermodels and movie stars." Butterfield joked he was receiving the "nerd award" and pointed at De Niro, mentioning, "I watched Godfather II on the plane... when you killed Don Fanucci, I liked that."

De Niro apparently did not find the humor in the entrepreneur's speech and proceeded to speak his mind as he presented an award to Angelina Jolie.

"Whoever the last speaker was... I thought you were a bit condescending to us actors... celebrities," De Niro said. "I'm gonna go on record with you just to say that. And I don't give a [expletive] who you are."

Butterfield has taken the bashing in stride, posting on Twitter alongside a photo of De Niro: "I just literally got trash-talked by Robert De Niro. 'I don't know who the [expletive] you are.'" #lifegoals."


Burt Reynolds Says Sally Field Is The Love Of His Life...
Burt Reynolds and Sally Field were Hollywood's "it" couple for years, starring in several movies together while dating, including The End, Hopper Smokey and the Bandit and its sequel.

Decades later, Reynolds believes the two still could have made magic happen.

Upon the release of his new book, But Enough About Me: A Memoir out Nov. 17, the legendary actor sat down with Vanity Fair at his Florida home and revealed the regrets from his past that have haunted him for years.

Though he experienced some financial woes, according to Entertainment Tonight, Reynolds believes the one thing that costs him the most is "women."

Reynolds says Sally Field is the "love of my life," even though the two haven't been together for over thirty years.

Reynolds and Fields, 69, dated in the 1970s and broke up in the early 1980s.

"I miss her terribly," he said. "Even now, it's hard on me. I don't know why I was so stupid. Men are like that, you know. You find the perfect person, and then you do everything you can to screw it up."

In regards to his finances Reynolds says what upsets him the most is when people make assumptions about his financial stability. He recalls the bankruptcy rumors that spread after his 2014 Las Vegas auction.

"That's one of the rare things that does piss me off," he said during the interview. "I'm not bankrupt, by any means. I'm not even worried about it."

The 79-year-old star admitted his role in some of the financial trouble he experienced in the 1990s saying he "trusted the wrong people with my money."

But when asked by what his biggest regret is, he says, "I would have spent more money and had a lot more fun."
