Celebrity Status – Ariana In 2024, Strombo Awarded OOC, And Countdown To NYE
For Friday, December 29th:
In addition to the movie version of Wicked, Ariana Grande has new music coming our way in 2024, and this week she shared a series of Instagram posts that offered a bunch of clues about the album. She has done a couple of collaborations with The Weeknd over the last few years, but hasn’t released a full album since 2020, so it’s something for her fans to look forward to.
Whoopi Goldberg and Billy Crystal fought back tears remembering Robin Williams at the Kennedy Center Honors, which aired last night. There were some tears from Billy too as Whoopi and others paid tribute to him and his career. The ceremony also honored Queen Latifah, Dionne Warwick, Barry Gibb and others.
Speaking of honours, George Stroumboulopoulos is one of 78 Canadians being awarded The Order of Canada. And to think, it all started on Much Music all those years ago!
