Here's the Scoop...

So apparently an actress bit Beyoncé! Did you know about about this?! And now the identity of the biter has been revealed!

Tiffany Haddish confirms that Sanaa Lathan was the actress who bit Beyoncé in the face.

The 38-year-old actress discussed the Love and Basketball star in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter published Wednesday after claiming in the spring that an actress bit Beyoncé at a party in December.

"I'm super good friends with her stepmom and her dad, and they were mad at me," Haddish said of Lathan's family. "They were like, 'Why would you do this to the family? You know, black actresses, you guys have to stick together, it's so hard for you guys to get work as it is, why would you try to ruin her career?'"

"But I didn't try to ruin her career. I never said her name! I was just trying to say how Beyoncé kept me from goin' to jail that night," she added. "I coulda just shut my whole career down."

The hashtag #WhoBitBeyonce became a trending topic in March after Haddish told GQ an actress bit the "Formation" singer at a party. She said in the interview that Beyoncé told her the person was "on drugs."

"There was this actress there, that's just, like, doing the mostest," Haddish said without naming the person. "She bit Beyoncé in the face."

Haddish is known for the film Girls Trip, and will star in the new movie Night School with Kevin Hart.

Be Well,

Netflix extends 'Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown' after fan plea
Netflix responded to Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown fans who were saddened to see that the popular travel show was going to be removed from the streaming service on June 16.

"Some fans have noticed that Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown was scheduled to come off Netflix US on June 16. As of today, we've extended our agreement that will keep Parts Unknown on the service for months to come," Netflix tweeted on Tuesday.

Chef and TV personality Bourdain was found dead by suicide on Friday. The 61-year-old was working abroad on an episode for Season 11 of Parts Unknown when a friend, fellow chef Eric Ripert, found him unresponsive in his hotel room.

"It is with extraordinary sadness we can confirm the death of our friend and colleague, Anthony Bourdain," CNN said in a statement. "His love of great adventure, new friends, fine food and drink and the remarkable stories of the world made him a unique storyteller. His talents never ceased to amaze us and we will miss him very much. Our thoughts and prayers are with his daughter and family at this incredibly difficult time."


Julianna Margulies: 'I owe my career to George Clooney'
Three-time Emmy winner Julianna Margulies says she owes her career to George Clooney.

The 52-year-old actress credited Clooney, her former ER co-star, with saving her career during her appearance on Tuesday's episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers.

"Honestly, I owe my career to George Clooney," she told host Seth Meyers. "Let me explain. I seriously owe my career to George Clooney because my character died in the pilot of ER."

Margulies, who played Carol Hathaway on the NBC series, said Clooney intervened before she took another job after her character's death.

"I was about to sign on to a not-very-good sitcom because I came back to New York. I needed a job," the star recalled. "He called me out of the blue, kind of put his neck out on the line for me and said, 'I overheard that your character tested well. And if I were you I wouldn't take another job because I think they're going to bring you back to life.'"

Margulies played Carol in Seasons 1 through 6 of ER, and won an Emmy in 1995 for her performance. She went on to star in the CBS series The Good Wife, and now plays Kitty on the AMC drama Dietland.

Margulies honored Clooney at the AFI Life Achievement Award gala Thursday in Los Angeles. She recalled filming ER with the actor, who played Doug Ross on the show.

"The most fun we used to have was when we would get to go to Chicago to shoot exteriors," the actress told E! News on the red carpet.

"After shooting a cold, cold night, we'd all go back -- Chris Chulack, our director, me, George, the camera crew -- and we would just sit in the hotel lobby and drink and eat and have fun," she said. "He would tell stories and we'd howl with laughter."

Which actor called out fans for harassing fellow 'Star Wars' cast members?

John Boyega is asking Star Wars fans to stop harassing the franchise's actors.

The 26-year-old actor spoke out Tuesday on Twitter following reports his Star Wars: The Last Jedi co-star Kelly Marie Tran wiped her Instagram account due to negativity online.

"To the majority of Star Wars fans thank you for supporting and putting yourselves in our shoes," Boyega wrote. "You understand that there is a process so much appreciated!"

"If you don't like Star Wars or the characters understand that there are decisions makers and harassing the actors/actresses will do nothing," he added. "You're not entitled to politeness when your approach is rude. Even if you paid for a ticket!"

Tran, who portrayed Rose Tico in The Last Jedi, deleted all of her Instagram posts earlier this month. The Guardian reported the 29-year-old actress was subject to sexist and racist abuse before her exit from social media.

Mark Hamill, who portrays Luke Skywalker in the Stars Wars films, showed his support for Tran last week. The 66-year-old actor posted a photo on Twitter of himself with Tran.

"What's not to love? #GetALifeNerds," he wrote.

Boyega plays Finn in Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Star Wars: The Last Jedi. The actor himself was subject to racist abuse after being cast in the franchise.

"I just don't get it," he told the New York Times in December 2015. "You guys got every single alien in this movie imaginable to man ... Yet what you want to do is fixate on another human being's color."
