Here's the Scoop...

Here's a story from the "This is the first I'm hearing of this" File...

Olivia Wilde sent Jennifer Lawrence a care package after the Oscar winner vomited during her show this month.

The 33-year-old actress said on Tuesday's episode of Watch What Happens Live that she reached out to Lawrence after the X-Men: Apocalypse star threw up while seeing her in 1984 on Broadway.

"Listen, she didn't need to apologize," Wilde told host Andy Cohen. "I felt so bad and I sent her some matzah ball soup and some bagels and she feels much better. She had a stomach flu, the poor thing walked in sick."

"She's feeling better, thank the Lord, because she's the best," she added.

Page Six reported last week that Lawrence got sick while attending a performance of 1984 on July 17. A source explained the 26-year-old actress had "caught the stomach flu from her nephews."

"Midway through the show, Jennifer Lawrence bolted from her seat," another insider recounted. "Several people saw her getting sick in the lobby. The ushers were very helpful and courteous in helping her out."

Wilde plays Julia in 1984, which is based on the George Orwell novel of the same name. The Broadway adaptation made headlines following its debut in May after several audience members fainted due to intense content.

"Sending my love to those 4 people who fainted in the audience. Warning: this is not your grandma's Broadway. Hope all are ok," Wilde tweeted May 24.

Olivia Wilde and Jennifer Lawrence can send me soup whenever they would like... I'm just saying.

Be Well,
Steve

Nicholas Hoult may play young J.R.R Tolkien in new film
Nicholas Hoult may play a young version of famed author J.R.R. Tolkien in a new film.

The 27-year-old British actor is in early talks to portray the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings writer in the forthcoming movie Tolkien, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Finnish director Dome Karukoski (The Grump) is attached to direct the Fox Searchlight Pictures and Chernin Entertainment film. David Gleeson (Cowboys & Angels) and Stephen Beresford (Pride) will write the script.

Deadline reported Tolkien will explore the orphaned author's formative years of "friendship, love and artistic inspiration" among other outcasts at school. His cherished bonds are threatened by the outbreak of World War I.

Tolkien, who died at age 81 in 1973, also wrote The Silmarillion, Unfinished Tales and The History of Middle-earth, which were published posthumously. Director Peter Jackson adapted The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit for the big screen.

Hoult is known for portraying Beast in the X-Men films, and will star as Catcher in the Rye writer J.D. Salinger in the new movie Rebel in the Rye. He shared a first trailer for the film last week on Twitter.

"Such an honour to learn about and portray this man," the star said of Salinger. "Here's the first trailer for #RebelInTheRye."


Luke Bryan breaks no touching rule for 88-year-old terminally ill fan
Luke Bryan allowed 88-year-old terminally ill fan Francis Stanaway to touch his butt despite the country star having a no touching rule.

Stanaway met Bryan during a meet-and-greet that took place before a recent concert in Kanas City. The meeting was put together by Gift of a Day, a special program from her care center, Crossroads Hospice and Palliative Care.

A photo taken from the meet-and-greet shared by CMT on Twitter, features a smiling Stanaway touching Bryan's butt while the singer is seen putting his hand to his mouth in surprise.

"I like that way he keeps up with his music," Stanaway said while speaking with KSHB41 Action News. "I like all the songs."

Stanaway was able to touch Bryan's butt even though the 41-year-old, as explained during an interview on The Late Late Show, enacted a no touching rule after dealing with "quite a few wandering hands," during meet-and-greets.

Kristen Stewart, girlfriend Stella Maxwell crash wedding in Canada
Hollywood couple Kristen Stewart and Stella Maxwell crashed a wedding in Canada over the weekend.

The 27-year-old American actress and New Zealand model, also 27, joined brides Kirsten Sully and Kayleigh Jennings for drinks and dancing at their reception Saturday at Pizzeria Gusto in Winnipeg, according to CBC.

"The owner came up to me, and he said, 'Hey, is it OK if Kristen Stewart and her girlfriend Stella come and have a few drinks with you guys?' And I was like, 'Yeah, totally! Yeah, no problem. Um, who is that?'" Sully recalled.

"I told Kir, 'Hey, let's just treat them as random guests. Let's just treat them with kindness -- southern hospitality. Winnipeg hospitality,'" Jennings, who hails from Oklahoma, added.

Stewart was shooting a movie in Winnipeg and had met the Pizzeria Gusto owner at a previous event. She and Maxwell were "formally introduced" to Sully and Jennings before joining the reception.

"We got a chance to shake her hand and shake Stella's hand," Jennings shared. "I actually wasn't as star-struck as I thought I would be."

"They looked just like two normal girls," Sully said. "They look a little Hollywood, but if we didn't know who they were, I don't know if I would have known. We said, 'Hey, you know. Come on and meet your guests and, you know, don't segregate yourselves. Come and party.'"

Sully and Jennings' wedding DJ, Karli Colpitts, shared a photo on Instagram of the brides with Stewart.

"Dj'ed the MOST fun wedding for these incredible woman last night and had an unplanned guest show up to dance with us at the end of the night!" she wrote. "Apparently Kristen Stewart loves Beastie boys! #djkchedda #kirandkay."

Stewart and Maxwell were first linked in December following the actress' split from singer St. Vincent. The couple were spotted holding hands during an outing to Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park, Calif., the next month.


Kevin Hart, Eniko Parrish vacation together after cheating rumors
Kevin Hart and Eniko Parrish put on a united front this week following cheating rumors.

The 38-year-old actor and comedian and Parrish shared photos from their trip to Mexico with friends after Hart was spotted with a mystery woman in Miami Beach.

"Great times with great people .... #LiveLoveLaugh #Family #Blessed," Hart captioned a picture Tuesday with Parrish and their pals in front of a private jet.

Parrish, a model who is pregnant with the couple's first child, was all smiles Monday in a photo she shared of herself and Hart cooking s'mores. She and Hart also looked happy as they posed for a picture the day previous.

"There's a first time for everything, making s'mores together was one of them. Creating memories that'll last forever. #thelittlethings HARTS," the mom-to-be wrote.

Cheating reports surfaced last week after RadarOnline published photos of Hart in a car with an unknown woman July 3. The actor subsequently told Entertainment Tonight the allegations were "absolutely not true."

"Kevin and Eniko are on vacation now with some close friends. They both thought it was a good time to get away and relax," a source told E! News. "When everything went down last week Kevin explained to Eniko nothing happened and that he would never cheat on her."

"They are working it out and the main priority for the two is to stay strong and have a healthy baby," the insider added. "Breaking up is not in the cards."

Which actor won't be a series regular in Season 4 of 'The Flash'?

Tom Felton won't return as a series regular in The Flash Season 4.

The 29-year-old British actor won't reprise his role as Julian Albert on The CW series starring Grant Gustin, Candice Patton and Danielle Panabaker, TVLine confirmed Tuesday.

Entertainment Weekly reported Felton didn't attend San Diego Comic-Con, where the show's producers and cast debuted a Season 4 trailer Saturday. The actor's character was missing from the new footage.

Season 4 will instead feature Neil Sandilands as The Thinker, Kim Engelbrecht as The Mechanic and Danny Trejo as the Breacher. Executive producer Todd Helbing discussed the newcomers at the show's Comic-Con panel.

"This year, with three speedsters in a row that we did, we wanted to change it up," Helbing explained, according to Entertainment Weekly. "The way we're explaining it is the fastest man alive versus the fastest mind alive."

"A big thing this year is we're really trying to lighten the tone a little bit," he added. "Last year it got pretty dark and we want to get back to the jokes."

Felton starred as Julian, Barry's (Gustin) lab partner and Caitlin's (Panabaker) love interest, in Seasons 2 and 3 of The Flash. He is also known for playing Draco Malfoy in all eight of the Harry Potter movies.
