We break down Jenny Slate’s deposition (and the actual footage that backs it up), unpack Blake and Ryan’s behind-the-scenes power plays with Hollywood royalty, and read the absolutely unhinged emails sent to Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. Plus: Sony executives vent privately about Blake, Ryan Reynolds sends the most try-hard text imaginable to Colleen Hoover, and we revisit the Brooklyn Beckham wedding chaos with fresh context.
