RuPaul Andre Charles gets star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame
Entertainer and author RuPaul Andre Charles was honored Friday with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Charles' husband Georges LeBar and Grace & Frankie actress Jane Fonda were on hand for the occasion, which Charles described as "absolutely the most important moment in my professional career."

"I am overcome with so much emotion right now," the iconic drag performer told attendees at the event, adding that when he was a little boy, his family would travel from their San Diego home and bring him to Los Angeles "so I could look at all the stars' and I could dream that, one day, I could be one of the stars on Hollywood Boulevard. In fact, it was a dream that I wasn't sure how I would achieve it, but I had so much support from my family and from my faith in a benevolent universe and that is what has brought me here today. I love all of you and I wish for each and every person within the sound of my voice that your dreams can come true as mine have."

Charles, 57, is the host of the reality competition series RuPaul's Drag Race, which will kick off its 10th season on March 22. It has already been renewed for Season 11.

Charles' acting credits include Crooklyn, The Brady Bunch Movie, To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar, But I'm a Cheerleader, Hurricane Bianca, Broad City and Girlboss.


Melissa Joan Hart in talks for 'Clarissa Explains It All' revival
Nickelodeon has met with Melissa Joan Hart about reprising her role of Clarissa Darling in a revival of her sitcom Clarissa Explains It All.

The Hollywood Reporter said the network has also been in touch with series creator Mitchell Kriegman about writing and executive producing the project.

The series, in which teen Clarissa talked directly to the camera about what was going on in her life, initially ran for five seasons 1991-94.

Hart, 41, would play a mom on the new version of the show.

A darker, more suspenseful re-make of Hart's sitcom Sabrina the Teenage Witch is currently in the works at Netflix, but Hart is not involved.

Ben Affleck shows back tattoo during outing in Hawaii
Ben Affleck showed his much-discussed back tattoo during a recent outing in Hawaii.

The 45-year-old actor displayed his large phoenix tattoo on the beach Thursday after previously claiming the ink was "fake for a movie."

Affleck was spotted shirtless as he worked on his new film Triple Frontier, according to Entertainment Tonight. The colorful tattoo covers the majority of the star's back.

E! News reported Affleck was training with Triple Frontier co-stars Charlie Hunnam, Garret Hedlund and Oscar Isaac. Fans took to social media after seeing what seems like confirmation the tattoo is real.

"I knew it! That stupid back tattoo is real on Ben Affleck. What the hell was he thinking!!!" one person tweeted.

"I've been following the Ben Affleck back tattoo drama more closely than the Mueller investigation," another added.

The Batman actor had said the tattoo was fake in an interview with Extra in March 2016. He spoke out after his ex-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez called the tattoo "awful" on an episode of Watch What Happens Live.

"I would tell him, 'What are you doing?'" the singer and actress said. "It has too many colors. His tattoos always have too many colors. They shouldn't be so colorful. They should be cooler, I don't know."

Triple Frontier will premiere on Netflix, but has yet to announce a release date.

Which 'Home Alne' star offered to fight WWE star Rusev?

Macaulay Culkin offered to fight WWE star Rusev in a Twitter exchange Thursday.

The 37-year-old actor responded after Rusev challenged a celebrity to take him on at Wrestlemania 34.

"BREAKING NEWS: I am officially accepting @RusevBUL challenge to wrestle him at this year's Wrestlemania. You heard it here first, folks. Come at me, bro!" Culkin tweeted.

Rusev, who issued the challenge in a tweet Wednesday, said he wasn't willing to fight Culkin, who played Kevin McAllister in Home Alone and the title character in Richie Rich as a child.

"I cannot Hit Little Kevin McAllister or Richie Rich!" the 32-year-old wrestler, born Miroslav Barnyashev, wrote.

"It's cool. I'd be doing all the hitting anyway. #youjustgotculked," Culkin responded.

Other stars responded to Rusev's challenge, including Dwayne Johnson, who offered his Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle co-star Kevin Hart as an opponent. Pitch Perfect actor Skylar Astin also said he was game to take on Rusev.

"I challenge @RusevBUL to a match at Wrestlemania. But I'm assembling my faction first! And if you think I'm outmatched, wait until you hear who I have in mind for my stable," he tweeted.

"Ha! @WWEDramaKing can outsing you! @LanaWWE can outdance you and i .... well i can MACHKA.... Happy #RusevDay," Rusev responded.

Wrestlemania 34 will take place April 8 at Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, La.
