Lucy Hale Sizzles on Her Cosmo Cover
Lucy Hale sizzles on the September cover of Cosmopolitan and she’s spilling all from her audition for Fifty Shades of Grey to Hollywood’s obsession with beauty.
But Cosmo being Cosmo, the headlines surrounding the Hale’s edgy picture were all about sex and orgasms, which Hale immediately apologized for on her IG writing,”Sorry for the captions dad.”

Seems like Lucy knows exactly what Papa Hale would say. She posted a picture of her dads text to his baby girl, which read, “Saw your pic on Cosmo. You look wonderful. Not too crazy about the articles beside your photo. Love u.”
The PLL star spoke out about her audition for the erotic 50 shades movie, explaining it was a bit awkward (as you would probably imagine). Thank god she didn’t get the part or her dad would really be uncomfortable!
“It’s exactly what you thought it would be. A big monologue but very, very sexual…there were some things that I was so embarrassed to be reading out loud,”she said about reciting her lines during the audition.
The professional actress didn’t have a problem with it though explaining it was just one of those things you had to dive in and pursue.
“It’s one of those things where you have to commit wholeheartedly,” Hale explained, “or you’re going to make a fool of yourself.”
And while she looks flawless on the cover (and on every episode of PLL) the star explained she does have a problem with Hollywood’s obsession with perfection.
“[Pretty Little Liars] is about how we look too. That’s terrifying sometimes because you’re breaking out or you feel gross and you still have to be in front of the camera. We’ll post pictures on Instagram and people will be like, ‘Y’all are so flawless.’ Little do they know it’s fake hair, fake eyelashes, and a good filter. Little girls see that and think they have to be like that.”
Don’t worry Lucy, we think you’d be pretty without makeup anyways.

La Brea has officially been canceled by NBC.
The series is gearing up for a third and final season, which will also see fewer episodes.
The news was announced on November 20, and while it’s not what fans wanted to hear, NBC is at least giving fans closure.
The final six episodes will premiere on January 9, 2024. It will be a lead-in to the season’s final two episodes of the hit fall drama Found.
The first and second seasons consisted of 10 and 14 episodes, respectively. The WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes then forced NBC to release the actors from their contracts.
With six episodes to tie up loose ends, let’s hope that the storyline will be wrapped up in a sufficient way that answers any and all questions and leaves fans feeling satisfied.
Zyra Gorecki, who plays Izzy, shared the news on her Instagram, writing, “I’m truly so proud of the work everyone put into #LaBrea Season 3. It was an absolute joy to be a part of. Thank you guys for all of your support these past three years.”

The cast also includes Natalie Zea, Eoin Macken, Jon Seda, Nicholas Gonzalez, Chiké Okonkwo, Jack Martin, Veronica St. Clair, Rohan Mirchandaney, Lily Santiago, Josh McKenzie, Tonantzin Carmelo and Michelle Vergara Moore.
La Brea was NBC’s latest sci-fi series that transported audiences and some Los Angeles residents to 10K B.C. via a mysterious sinkhole. At the center of it is the Harris family, who are eventually reunited when it’s revealed that the patriarch Gavin (Macken) has deep connections to the prehistoric timeline.
As you await the third season, here’s a little season 2 finale refresher!
As Goosebumps wrapped up its first season on Disney+ on Nov. 17, things ended on quite a shocking cliffhanger, leading fans to question if a second season was in the works.
And it seems like season 1 is just the start as there are definitely plans to continue on with the series featuring the same cast, which includes Isa Briones, Ana Yi Puig, Zack Morris, Will Price, and Miles McKenna.
With the first chapter closed, a second chapter will explore the aftermath of Briones’ massive decision (you can read our review right here), but first, Disney+ needs to renew the season officially.
As of writing, Goosebumps has not been renewed for season 2, however, everything was created with the intention of there being additional episodes.
And naturally, since the series takes inspiration from the popular R.L. Stine novels, there’s the question of which books will be adapted next to explore the aftermath of Kanduu’s devious plan.
Disney released the first season ahead of Halloween, dropping the first five episodes all at once on October 13 before adopting a weekly release format, which kept up the intrigue.
Through the course of 10 episodes, fans created a special bond with the give teens trying to save their town of Port Lawrence from a tragedy that connected to their parent’s past and included their new high school teacher, Mr. Nathan Bratt played by Justin Long.
Once Disney renews the series and announces a premiere date (which can happen as the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes are over), we’ll update this post accordingly!
