Drew Barrymore and Valerie Bertinelli get candid about sex dreams: 'Not exclusive to men'

"Drew's News" is the segment for hot topics, after all.

Entertainment Weekly

On Tuesday's episode ofThe Drew Barrymore Show,the host brings up a recent TIME magazine report decoding the secret of sex dreams — which leads to a candid admission from Drew Crew memberValerie Bertinelli.

Barrymore, 51, opens up the conversation by admitting it's been "years" since she last had a sex dream. "This brain ain't working. I don't know what is going on," she confesses. "I feel like I used to have really sexy dreams and wake up really turned on. And it's just gone, it's not there."

"Even the men in your dreams are ghosting you," jokes cohost Ross Mathews.

Barrymore then asks Bertinelli about her own most recent subconscious fantasy. "Not too long ago," admits the 65-year-old actress. In fact, the dream was about someone she knew.

Yet that isn't even the most shocking admission from Bertinelli, who recently released the memoirGetting Naked: The Quiet Work of Becoming Perfectly Imperfect.

"But have you had a sex dream where you climaxed?" she asks. "That's the good one." Barrymore seems unfazed at first, agreeing, "I don't think it's exclusive to men, for sure."

However, things get a little, well, wet, when Mathews makes a crack just as Barrymore takes a sip from her yellow "Drew's News" mug.

"I love that Val can sit in front of so many people and just, 'climax,'" he quips — prompting Barrymore to spit water all over the desk.

As she cleans up the mess, Mathews can't help but joke, "Now, she's turned on."

Kristen Wiig's makeup artist explains comparing her to roasted chicken and muscle cars: 'She trusts me implicitly'

Kristen Wiigruled the roost at the 2026 Actor Awards — perhaps it was her "hot roasted honey glazed chicken" glam?

ThePalm Royalestar's makeup artist,Jo Baker, has gone viral for her hilarious mood boards that offer rare insight into her creative genius. Her inspiration for some of Wiig's biggest red carpet looks? Everything from muscle cars andburnt rubbertoapple cobbler.

At the Actor Awards, Wiig stunned in a black silk Christian Cowan column gown. Her glam, raved Baker, was giving "sun-kissed radiance… inspired by hot roasted honey glazed chicken," which she illustrated by collaging a headshot of Wiig with two golden-brown cooked birds.

"The chicken just came to mind because it literally feels, visually, the way I was thinking of those color tones and that palette," Baker tellsEntertainment Weekly.

"Kristen wiig's makeup artist will compare her to truly anything i'm crying," joked atweet(with 3.6 million views) that put the spotlight on Baker's Instagram page.

The online attention was a surprise to Baker — and completely unknown to Wiig.

"She has no idea, she's not on social media," Baker tells EW. "We have such a good relationship, she trusts me implicitly. And let's be honest, she's one of the funniest, coolest chicks in the business, so it makes sense that she wouldn't be opposed to me leaning into a little quirky humor in my posts. I don't know how much she has or hasn't seen. We don't really talk about it." (Representatives for Wiig didn't respond to EW's request for comment.)

As Baker explains it, she's inspired by things that overlap real life and beauty, whether that be sunsets, ice cream, architecture, animals, or even condoms "because they're the perfect sheer pale pink tone."

At the Academy Awards on March 15, Baker gave Wiig "dewy fresh sun-kissed skin," a look referenced by two classic 1970s cars: a metallic gold Plymouth Barracuda in pristine condition and, well, a junkyard Lincoln Continental.

Baker opted for a sweeter look at a Los Angeles screening ofPalm Royale: "charred chocolate + sugary glazed inspired glam," based ondelectable donutsincluding a black charcoal variation filled with chocolate custard.

Wiig is not the only client to get the mood board treatment.

Baker gaveThe InviteactressOlivia Wilde"dirty snow sludge" (smudged black eyeliner and greased lids) for the 2026 Sundance Film Festival.

Vanessa Kirby'sFantastic FourSydney premiere mood board included a photo of dehydrated beef with vegetablesspace foodeaten by the Apollo crew ("retro monochromatic mauvey tan tones). And for a "charred noir" Charlotte Gainsbourg photo shoot, the vibe was exemplified byburnt-out electrical sockets.

"My new clients always say, 'I can't wait to be collaged by Jo Baker,' which is such an honor," she tells EW. "It's so endearing."

As for going viral, "the greater the reach that I can share my creativity and art with is the ultimate joy," Baker continues. "I want people to look at beauty differently. It's why I createdBakeup Beauty... because I want to translate my collages into products, and that's what I've started to do." (The product she's most proud of:Tarantulash mascara, "a bold, no-nonsense gritty London girl lash.")

If Baker ever runs out of inspo for Wiig, there's always "Colonial woman on the wing churning butter."

Will there be a season 2 of

A second season of The Madison has already been filmed.

Key Points

  • Most of the cast is expected to return, including Michelle Pfeiffer.

  • Kurt Russell has confirmed that season 2 will consist of six episodes.

Warning: This article contains spoilers forThe Madisonseason 1.

The Madisonhit hard, its story of sudden loss, grief, and hard-fought acceptance sending us scrambling for the tissues.

Over six episodes — released three at a time across two weeks —Taylor Sheridan's emotional drama follows the wealthy Clyburn clan as they leave New York City for rural Montana to identify the bodies of family patriarch Preston (Kurt Russell) and uncle Paul (Matthew Fox) after a deadly plane crash.

Season 1 wrapped on March 21 with a gut punch, but the family's story isn't over yet. Here's everything we know aboutThe Madisonseason 2 so far, including what stars Michelle Pfeiffer and Kurt Russell have to say about it.

Will there be a season 2 ofThe Madison?

As of this writing, Paramount+ hasn't officially announced a second season ofThe Madison— even though it's already been filmed.

Back in January,Russell toldEntertainment Weeklythat the show's filming schedule had to be tweaked since he was already committed to shooting season 2 of Apple TV'sMonarch: Legacy of Monstersat the same time.

"Michelle Pfeiffer and Taylor were able to get together with the people at Paramount+ and said, 'Well, let's do two seasons instead of just one,'" he recounted. "'And then before we start the second season next year, instead of doing that, we will start with Kurt's stuff. We really do want him to play the guy. And we'll get his first season out of the way first, and jam all that in there, and then go into the second season and do that.' And so we were able to do that."

Several cast members have also been open about having filmed a second season. Late last year, for example, Elle Chapman, who plays Stacy and Preston's youngest daughter Paige,posted on her Instagram Storythat filming for season 2 had wrapped.

Jane Wiseman, head of originals at Paramount+, told EW that sheenvisions a third seasonfor the show. "I mean, this is, again, a love story — and an evolution — and so I do feel like there's a lot more to tell," she said.

Representatives for Paramount+ did not immediately respond to EW's request for comment.

What happened at the end ofThe Madisonseason 1?

The season 1 finale ofThe Madisonends on an emotional note.

Throughout the season, the Clyburns are struggling to cope with the sudden death of family patriarch Preston, and after spending time in his beloved Madison River Valley in Montana, they return to New York to try to get back to their lives.

In the city, Stacy's friend Liliana (Rebecca Spence) sets up a memorial in Stacy's apartment, but Stacy isn't ready to face it. With a little encouragement from her therapist, Phil (Will Arnett), she reluctantly agrees to attend — and even invites him along.

Meanwhile, Paige (Chapman) loses her cool at work after overhearing her colleague make rude comments about her dad's fatal plane crash and carbon footprint. She punches her coworker, who threatens to press charges. But since the woman also lost her father, she decides to drop them. Still, Paige ends up with a minor violation and loses her job.

At the memorial, things get awkward. We finally meet Abby's (Beau Garrett) notorious ex-husband, Dallas (Tanc Sade), who clearly lives up to his reputation.

Stacy eventually slips away from the gathering, leaving her phone behind. Abby panics and calls the police to report that her mom is missing. By the next morning, Cade (Kevin Zegers) finds Stacy back in Montana, sleeping next to Preston's grave.

What isThe Madisonseason 2 about?

Details aboutThe Madisonseason 2 are still under wraps, but Wiseman told EW in March that the family is still very much reeling from Preston's death at the end of season 1.

She pointed out that it's been "less than a week" since the accident, and Russell added, "[Stacy's] still gonna run into people saying, 'Hey, how's Preston doing?' 'He's a great guy.' 'Remember the time we did that thing?' There won't even be time for her to say he's dead!"

In aMarch 2026 interview withThe Wrap, Pfeiffer teased that season 2 has "a surprising amount of laughs and comical relief."

She continued, "I think that in the first season it goes in between sorrow and grief and denial and trying to be stoic, and all of those confusing feelings when you've had a traumatic loss in your life. And so season 2, I think it's a little more raw and more in sinking in."

On the other hand, Russell revealed that season 2 will feel "more painful, because of the sweetness, that exists that you're now beginning to fully just accept."

Who's in the cast ofThe Madisonseason 2?

Pfeiffer, Russell, and Chapman have already finished filming forThe Madisonseason 2, though it's not yet clear which other cast members are also returning. Season 1 also starred Garrett, Sade, Zegers, Spence, Arnett, Patrick J. Adams, Amiah Miller, Alaina Pollack, Ben Schnetzer, and Danielle Vasinova.

One cast member who won't be back isMatthew Fox, who played Paul Clyburn, Preston's younger brother. He confirmed this toThe Hollywood Reporter, saying, "I'm at a point in my life where I'd rather pop in and do something interesting, but I don't want to dedicate six years of my life to something [again]."

How many episodes are inThe Madisonseason 2?

Russell told EW thatThe Madisonseason 2 will follow the first season's format and consist of six episodes.

"I was very happy about that, because I really like whatThe Madisonis. It's a smart show," he said, adding that Sheridan is a "really good writer."

When doesThe Madisonseason 2 come out?`

Judge appoints new US attorney for New Jersey after Habba, other officials were disqualified

Judge appoints new US attorney for New Jersey after Habba, other officials were disqualified

A veteran federal prosecutor was appointed Monday as U.S. attorney for New Jersey, ending a dispute between the judiciary and President Donald Trump over control of the office that included the disqualifications of the administration's previous picks for the position.

Attorney New Jersey

A U.S. District Court judge issued a one-sentence order naming Robert Frazer as the top federal prosecutor in the state — the result of an agreement between federal judges and the U.S. Department of Justice.

"The Department of Justice thanks the district court for working with the Department to appoint Robert Frazer to serve as US Attorney so that once again criminal prosecutions can resume without needless challenge or delay on behalf of the people of New Jersey," the department said in a statement.

Earlier this month, U.S. District Judge Matthew Branndisqualified three Justice Department officialswho were sharing authority over the office, saying they were appointed in an illegal power grab by the Trump administration. They replaced Trump's first choice for U.S. attorney, his former personal attorney Alina Habba, whom Brannbarred from the job last yearbecause she had stayed too long without Senate confirmation.

The three officials — Philip Lamparello, Jordan Fox and Ari Fontecchio — had been appointed to replace Habba indefinitely, in an unusual move by Attorney General Pam Bondi.

In a court hearing last week, another federal judge in New Jersey ordered the three to answer his questions under oath and threw another government official out of the proceeding in frustration over the Justice Department's chaotic oversight of federal prosecutions in the state.

Habba, who is now a senior adviser at the Justice Department, congratulated Frazer in a social media post Monday, saying "New Jersey deserves a great chief federal law enforcement official who is in line with President Trump's agenda of making this country safe and NJ great!"

Frazer, who had been serving as senior trial counsel in the New Jersey U.S. attorney's office, did not immediately return an email message Monday.

The judiciary and Trump's administration have been odds over the process for selecting U.S. attorneys, who ordinarily must undergo Senate confirmation to stay in their positions.

Judges have ruled, in separate cases, that people installed as the top federal prosecutors for Nevada, Los Angeles and northern New York were all serving unlawfully.

Lindsey Halligan,who pursued indictmentsagainst apair of Trump's adversaries, left her position as acting U.S. attorney in Virginia after ajudge concludedin November that her appointment was unlawful. The judge also ruled thatindictments she broughtagainst New York Attorney General Letitia James and former FBI Director James Comey must be dismissed.

In some instances, judges have exercised their power under the law to appoint U.S. attorneys to oversee prosecutor offices until one of the president's picks is confirmed by the Senate. The Justice Department has responded by immediately firing those judicial appointees.

Associated Press writer Alanna Durkin Richer in Washington, D.C., contributed to this report.

'I'll kill him': Convicted man back in custody after threatening Trump, then demanding pardon

An Oregon man is back in police custody after threatening to "kill the president" in a slew of text messages to his probation officer.

Fox News

Diedrich Holgate, 47, was convicted and sentenced last July after making threats on social media and placing several direct calls to the U.S. Secret Service Washington Field Office, threatening to kill then-presidential candidate Donald Trump and then-PresidentJoe Biden.

In a June 2024 call to the Secret Service, Holgate said, "I have the right to kill the president."

"I will kill everyone," Holgate said, according to the federal indictment. "The president is going to die. I don't care if it is Trump or Biden. I will hang everyone for treason."

Two months later, Holgate called the field office again, threatening to "hang his a** for treason" and saying that no one was safe from him, including the First Lady and Supreme Court justices.

Holgate was released from custody on January 21 and was ordered to live in a halfway house.

Just weeks after being released from prison, Holgate's probation officer filed a petition to revoke his probation for several violations, including continueddeath threats toward the president.

"Holgate has made multiple threatening statements via text message to his probation officer," the petition alleged. "Probable cause has been established that aviolation of supervised releasehas been committed."

Holgate sent his probation officer several text messages that included "Trump's gonna fkn pardon me or I'll kill him!!!!"

"You're with me or You're a traitor & infidel that's taken the Mark of the beast. & Hell? That won't last forever. Second death. You'll be erased," Holgate wrote in another message to his probation officer.

Amagistrate judge ruledin a preliminary hearing that there was probable cause to believe Holgate violated the conditions of his release. In addition to making threats, Holgate failed to report to a meeting with his probation officer and left the halfway house. He also violated house rules by smoking a vape.
