Next season will be its last.

Video of the press conference Really hard to watch. He seems tormented. I suppose anyone with chronic pain would understand.

I mean, it’s a good thought, but Jamie is always a contender with Bruno Soares. And even if Murray was unpleasant on court, he’s still miles more tolerable than the disrespectful douchey other Andy.

He’d be great at that. I heard he did well covering Wimbledon for the BBC last summer. Someone on Twitter said that the Federer, Nadal, Djokovic, and Murray fanbases are all getting along for the first time, but it took one of them retiring to do it.

End of an era. I’m sad for him.

Kei and Naomi together in a Japanese commercial for Nissin! 😍😍😍

This is actually a very smart, considered, and mature response regarding that USO incident, which was obviously brought up in the above piece.

Really not a bad draw: Wow. That is ROUGH.

Lady Gaga has made a statement and plans to remove her duet with R. Kelly from streaming services.

Not shocked but SMDH.

RIP Green Book. First Viggo Mortensen’s N-word slip a few months back at a Q&A, and now today’s turn of events:

Andy Murray is practicing against Novak right now.

Update: with Kevin Hart putting the idea of resuming host duties to bed, the Academy is planning to go hostless, using an array of A-list stars to introduce segments and perform skits. Some execs are calling it “a potentially fatal prospect.”

There’s a paywall for this:

Sloane served for the match in the 2nd set, but Putintseva came back and won 6-0 in third.

Kim Delaney has joined the NYPD Blue revival:

No Lanthimos, Coogler, or Jenkins.

I don’t remember, but outside of select Slams and North American Masters, Sloane still DGAF. This made me laugh:
