It's April 3rd. Welcome in. This is Entertainment and Celebrity News today, where the headlines shine, powered by AI. Brian Cox, the succession star pushing 80, just dropped the bomb in a time's interview, ripping into method acting as American nonsense and dodging. Rolls to skip folks like Johnny Depp, who he calls Overblown and Overrated. He passed on playing Kira Knightley's dad in Pirates because of Depp, then slammed Margot Robbie for even touching weathering heights as Kathy Plus. Edward Norton as a pain, and Quentin Tarantino as fake flashy, tying it to his own directing gig in Glenrothin, where he honors actors over director. Ego, Cox doubled down on his beef with method actors like Jeremy Strong, inspired by Daniel De Lewis, saying kids act naturally without motivation talk. And he ignored De Lewis's chat invite, since it's not personal, just hates the extra bollocks. At nearly 80, with his wife warning him to chill, Cox is over being careful, vowing to speak his mind raw, echoing a wave of celeb confessions.

From Jason Kelsey's skipping foot washes to Kim Kardashian, musing on eating poop for youth, these unfiltered spills remind us stars are dropping guards, owning weird habits and regrets, keeping Hollywood's truth game real as ever.
