She’s back, she’s really, really back!

Can you believe it’s been ten years since Céline Dion took over Paris Fashion Week with an assist from Law Roach and gave us one of the most delightful weeks in gossip history? I am not exaggerating. Every day she’d come out of her hotel and step on our necks in viral head-to-toe high fashion – none more viral than the Titanic hoodie.View this post on InstagramA post shared by Vogue France (@voguefrance)
It was a more innocent time. Not that anyone could say that the wor

Dear Gossips,Last night at the Venice Film Festival opening night gala, George Clooney received the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement. As mentioned earlier this week, Venice is a special place for him, and he said emphatically during his speech that it’s his favourite festival – he spends a lot of time in Italy with his family, he was married there, and so many of his films have premiered there.So yesterday was a whole day of George in Venice and we could do three posts about what

The B.C. film industry is in another wait-and-see scenario after U.S. President Donald Trump called on Congress to create federal tax incentives to help bolster the United States’ film industry.Gemma Martini , board chair for Screen B.C. and the founder and CEO of Martini Studios in Langley , said the TV/film industry is a global business and every major production hub around the globe is “analyzing ways to remain competitive.” And the U.S. “is now doing the same.”

This week, the New Jersey Devils acquired Luke Evangelista from the Predators.
In return, the Preds received a conditional first-round pick and a second-round pick. Both picks are for the 2028 draft.
It's unclear whether the Devils acquired him to use him right away or to give themselves leverage in a potential trade with the Wild, but either way, he's a great addition. #QuinnHughes
In fact, this also served as a reminder that, yes, trades like this can indeed happen in September.
But does that

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. isn’t having a great season. The Blue Jays’ star seems to have lost all his power, which isn’t ideal.
The team hasn't lived up to expectations this season, and its star player's poor performance has certainly played a part in that.
That said, the Blue Jays are still in the playoff race. And after losing the first game of a crucial series against the Guardians, the team needed a win last night.
And Vladdy finally had a good one. He recorded three hits in fo

The Canadiens are urging patience in the market right now.
We know that Kent Hughes hasn't found the right deal to make a move so far this offseason. He doesn't want to overspend on the wrong player.
That's a good thing, obviously. But…
But one day, he'll still have to pay the price for the right guy. Eventually, he'll have to do what he hasn't been able to do for the past year: trade assets to acquire a top-6 player.
Hughes came close to doing so at the trade deadline with Matthew Knies,

The Connor Hellebuyck situation is far from resolved in Winnipeg.
After publicly requesting a trade, it remains to be seen whether the Jets will grant his request quickly and before the start of the season.In the meantime, speculation is running rampant, and Jeff Marek offered a rather interesting comment on the podcast “The Sheet.” Credit to HabsolumentFan for digging up the news.

The golf tournament and the rookie tournament are coming up, and hockey is finally in the air in Montreal. Barring a major turnaround, the Habs will head into training camp without a true top-6 center in the NHL.That will be the battle to watch during camp. Oliver Kapanen, Alex Newhook, Kirby Dach, and Jake Evans should all have the opportunity to prove themselves.
Ideally, the Canadiens would have had a better option, but Kent Hughes didn't make any major trades this summer, and Michael Hage is

It's early September, training camp starts at the end of the month, and two key players are still without contracts.
You know exactly who I'm talking about; do I need to say it again?
As for Arber Xhekaj, his agent, Brian Bartlett, declined to comment last week. Today, he opened up a bit more, but still refuses to reveal his hand. He says he's still in talks with the Canadiens, but nothing is set in stone yet. That's according to an article by Louis-André Larivière in La Page Sport

The NHL is doing well.
It may not be the league with the highest revenue, but…
The salary cap keeps rising, which is a good indicator of the NHL's financial health. In basketball, the Clippers just paid a hefty fine: five lost first-round picks and a $30 million penalty. Team executives and Kawhi Leonard also faced penalties.
Alan Walsh, who isn't one to mince words, even said it was either this consequence for the Los Angeles Clippers or the end of the salary cap era in the NBA. The leag

Yesterday afternoon, it was reported that the Los Angeles Angels had been sold. Arte Moreno, the team's controversial owner, will be stepping down in favor of Stan Kroenke.
We're talking about a guy with experience in the world of sports, whether with the Rams (NFL), the Avalanche (NHL), or the Nuggets (NBA). And above all, he's very wealthy.
In total, Kroenke spent $4 billion to acquire the Angels. And the future owner, apparently, has no intention of stopping there.
According to Barry Bloom (F

This morning, The Athletic published a ranking that's sure to get people talking.
The list ranked players in order of importance: MVP, franchise players, stars, and role players.
In fact, two Canadiens players are in the latter category: Ivan Demidov and Jakub Dobes.The @TheAthleticNHL released its NHL Player Tiers for 2026-27, and 7 #Habs players made the list.However, no Canadiens player made it into Tier 1 (MVP).
Who do you think has the best chance of reaching Tier 1 in the future? @TheAthle

Things are really hitting the fan in San Jose.
A loose translation of “the shit hits the fan,” by the way.
What? What's going on with the Sharks' lineup? Nothing!
A few days ago, a former teammate of Evander Kane's (2020–21) named Kurtis Gabriel kicked things off by openly stating that the guys in the locker room had had enough of Kane.
Evander Kane later mentioned on X that he would one day make up his mind and share “his truth,” and that when that day comes, he'll

Every two weeks there’s a fresh rumour about who will be the next Bond. But it’s not really all that fresh because every “new” story about the new Bond always recycles the same names that have been speculated about for months. One of those names is Jack Lowden who was seen this week out in London with our beloved Saoirse Ronan.Saoirse and Jack welcomed their first child about a year ago. We do not know exactly when the baby was born but they were seen with a pram during t

I’m not necessarily talking about Sydney Sweeney being back in Venice for the film festival, it’s Venice in general, for other reasons, including Scooter Braun. Because last year she was in Venice for the Bezos wedding and Scooter was there too and that is presumably when their relationship started. And now it’s looking like it’s pretty serious because she was with him and his kids the other day in LA doing the most LA thing – getting a smoothie.Today, though, she&r

There have been rumors surrounding Robert Thomas for quite some time.
We know the Blues have received quite a few calls about the center in recent months, which is to be expected given the club's position looking ahead to the coming years in the NHL.

The Blues have always refused to trade him. But despite that, doubts remained, since the new GM has the freedom to be tempted and seriously consider a trade.
But now…

Yesterday afternoon, it was reported that Arte Moreno had decided to sell the Los Angeles Angels. The owner, who wasn't exactly a fan favorite, will be handing the reins over to Stan Kroenke.
Kroenke already owns, among other teams, the Colorado Avalanche (NHL), the Los Angeles Rams (NFL), and the Denver Nuggets (NBA).
When Kroenke becomes the team's owner, he will surpass Steve Cohen as the wealthiest owner in MLB. And, of course, all of this is sparking a wave of hope among Angels fans, who ha

on August 29, the Quebec native could have pursued his American dream by joining the practice squad of an NFL team. Instead, he chose to return to Montreal and join the Alouettes.
This decision speaks as much to his ambition as it does to his loyalty to the Montreal organization. Rather than settling for a limited role in the NFL, Jones prefers to have the opportunity to make a

Leah Remini is filming The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and I’m tempering my expectations because this kind of casting doesn’t always work. I didn’t think Denise Richards was a fit for the show, but Lisa Rinna was.
Real Housewives is its own genre, so if someone can’t conform to that type of “reality” and tries to pull celebrity rank over the cast, it messes with the chemistry.View this post on InstagramA post shared by Leah Remini (@leahremini)

Since the start of the summer, the CH has been unable to sign a top-6 forward. We suspect this is the club's number-one priority, but no acquisition has been made so far.
A ton of names have been floating around (and others, like Kirill Marchenko, continue to be the subject of speculation), but the trade never materialized.
And in the eyes of many, the window for such a trade has pretty much closed for this offseason. We know that big-name players, generally speaking, tend to change teams early

A few years out from finding herself at the centre of arguably the most sensational scandal to ever unfold in the reality TV landscape, Ariana Madix sat down with Vanity Fair to peel the curtain back on what life has been like lately. And between being in a Broadway production and having billboards of her face scattered throughout Los Angeles, to now landing an Emmy nomination, it’s safe to say that life hasn’t been too bad.In conversation with Anna Peele, a culture writer and editor

We've been talking about this for a long time, but it's becoming more and more of a reality.
According to information from Stéphane Turcot (and as confirmed by Jérémy Filosa), a baseball team is set to return to the Montreal area in 2029.
We've known for a while that the Frontier League has its sights set on the Montreal market for the future. And that makes sense.
But now, it's becoming more and more concrete.Interesting news about the return of baseball to Montreal via @St

Since the start of the offseason, there has been speculation about whether Kirill Marchenko will be traded.
It's clear that the more time passes, the more it works against the Blue Jackets. After all, if Kent Hughes didn't want to trade Michael Hage in June, why would he say yes now?
I'm using the Habs as an example, but you get my point.
That said, the more time passes, the more the Blue Jackets are losing leverage. Because time is currently working against his current team, not against the oth

As MC has mentioned several times recently, Miley Cyrus, now just Miley, is preparing for the release of her next album on September 18. We’ve known about the new music for a couple of weeks now, and she’s with a new label after her last album, Something Beautiful, did not deliver a massive hit – although to be fair, “Flowers” was so enormous for her that I’m not sure anything in that time would have met those expectations.Still, the anticipation is high for w

Several players—mostly Americans—asked, directly or indirectly, to be traded over the summer.
Connor Hellebuyck, Zach Werenski, Kirill Marchenko, Shane Wright, Brady Tkachuk, and Dylan Larkin, to name just a few.
Tkachuk was traded, Werenski backed down, and the others are still waiting to see if their requests will lead to a positive outcome.
Will Dylan Larkin be traded, given that he's still a member of the Red Wings with two weeks to go before training camp opens? For now, Larkin

After a rough patch in which concerns about his health surfaced, Paul Skenes's most recent start had been reassuring, as he pitched six scoreless innings against the San Diego Padres on August 25.
But last night (Tuesday), doubts quickly resurfaced as the Pittsburgh Pirates starter struggled early in the game against the San Francisco Giants, allowing five runs in four and two-thirds innings.
The Giants attacked Skenes in the first two innings, forcing him to throw a total of 49 pitches. The pit

It's September. Patrik Laine still hasn't signed a contract.
At this point, with training camps fast approaching, it's becoming increasingly likely that the former Canadiens player will sign a tryout contract with an NHL team for training camp.
That would make sense, at least.
We know that many teams have had internal discussions about the possibility of Laine joining their organization moving forward.
Since Laine can sign a contract based on performance bonuses, he becomes a bit more attractive

The Montreal Alouettes could soon add a new weapon to an offense that already features several players capable of wreaking havoc.
Quebec native Rohan
Jones, recently released by the Los Angeles Rams, showed up for the team's practice on Wednesday morning, and all signs point to him continuing his career in Montreal.
The 24-year-old confirmed that discussions with the Alouettes were well underway and that his contract signing should be finalized in the coming days.
Jones still had a few options,
