THE BOSS starring Melissa McCa0rthy debuts on-top with a close $24.4 million from 3,480 theatres for Universal Pictures. It gets an 18% on the Tomatometer and a C+ CinemaScore. Let’s be clear, McCarthy is the Box Office Queen despite what some might say and this year is only going to get better for her as blockbuster Ghostbusters hits theatres this summer!

After a two-week reign, BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE slips to second this weekend earning $23.3 million for Warner Bros. To date it is just shy of the $300 million mark over three weeks.

In its sixth week, Disney‘s ZOOTOPIA is in third this weekend with $14.2 million. It also nears that $300 million mark.

MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING 2 earns $6.8 million in its third week out, inching closer to $50 million for Universal Pictures.

HARDCORE HENRY debuts in fifth with $5.1 million from 3, 015 theatres for VVS Films and STX, getting a TIFF ’15 Midnight Madness Award this past September. It gets 51% on the Tomatometer and a C+ CinemaScore.

EYE IN THE SKY rounds out the Top Ten as it expands to 1,089 theatres with $2.6 million, in its fifth week out earning $10 million for eOne Films and Bleecker Street Films.

The 41st annual Sovereign Awards took place in Toronto tonight at Woodbine Racetrack, honouring champions in Canadian Horse Racing for the year 2015. This year’s theme was Hollywood, the Red Carpet complete with its own Hollywood sign, movie theme songs introducing winners and giant Oscar statues to greet guests.

Taking Horse of the Year honours this year was three-time honouree this evening Catch a Glimpse, who took the important Grade II Natalma Stakes last fall before going on winning the Grade I $1-million Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf at Keeneland. The Mark Casse trainee owned by Michael James Ambler, Gary Barber and Windways Farm, also nabbed Outstanding Turf Female and Two Year Old Filly. It is a rarity that a horse as young as she wins Horse of the Year honours, making her accomplishment that much more impressive. Mark Casse himself would go on to win Outstanding Trainer a jaw-dropping eighth time, his daughter Camille accepting for him.

Eurico Da Silva won his third Outstanding Jockey title, noticeably emotional when watching a tribute for his late fan Alexandrea Tersigni, to whom he dedicated his 2015 season.

Frank Stronach and his Adena Springs also were notable winners taking Outstanding Breeder – they are based in Aurora, Ontario. Stronach Stables’ Queen’s Plate champion Shaman Ghost was honoured Outstanding Three Year Old Male.

Bear Stables’ Academic proved her popularity through Ontario and Western Canada, besting the boys in the Canadian Derby in addition to the prestigious Woodbine Oaks last year en route to a victory in the Outstanding Three Year Old Filly voting.

The ill-fated Miss Mischief shipped in from the U.S. last season to a couple significant stake wins including the Grade II Bessarabian Stakes. She won both Outstanding Older Female and Female Sprinter.  The speedy filly had passed away over the winter after sustaining an injury.

Sam-Son Farm would go on to win Outstanding Owner, with Rick Balaz accepting. He acknowledged his children Mike and Lisa Balaz as being the future of the legacied stable, thanking the large team who help with operations.

Other major winners tonight included Interpol for Outstanding Turf Male, Are You Kidding Me for Outstanding Older Horse and Riker for Outstanding Two Year Old Male.

To say that British import Ricky Whittle‘s fanbase is ardent is an understatement. The Actor whom just parted ways with The CW‘s hit series The 100, quickly turned around and landed a starring role in upcoming Starz series American Gods. Whittle has not minced words in his opinion about a certain producer for cutting his story lines on that series and fans have been vocal, rallying in support of him.

American Gods centers on ex-convict Shadow (Whittle) who meets a mysterious man named Wednesday (Ian McShane) who seems to know more about him and his past than initially thought. Emily Browning and Sean Harris star also.

The Series begins production later this month in the City, running through the fall, with read-throughs beginning next week.

We spotted Whittle arriving with luggage in-tow, set for an extended stay. With a group of Fans waiting on him, he was beyond nice to stop and greet everybody individually. We know one of our readers Mel in Ottawa loves him dearly and we got him to do a quick shout-out!

See below:

The awesome #RickyWhittle and me. He’s in #Toronto to begin work on #AmericanGods!

12-year-old child actor Neel Sethi is a name to look out for. The New York-born emerging star makes his big screen debut in Jon Favreau‘s live action adaptation of Rudyard Kipling‘s The Jungle Book.

Sethi stars in the leading role of Mowgli, alongside a stacked cast including the voices of Ben Kingsley, Scarlett Johnansson, Christopher Walken, Bill Murray, Lupita Nyong’o and Idris Elba. The late Gary Shandling also appears as Ikki.

The Jungle Book centers on a feral boy raised by wolves in central India. After his life is threatened with humans being banished from the jungle, he goes on an adventurous journey of self-discovery.

A dapper Sethi was out and about this morning doing press in the City and stopped for photos and autographs, well-cared for by his team (including his proud parents) who travelled in a Mercedes Sprinter! This is just a taste of what’s ahead for this bright young talent!

Asian Luxury Skin Care giant SK-II comes out of nowhere and gives us the feels with this new Short Film as part of their #ChangeDestiny campaign. The Film tackles the subject of being single as a woman past the age of 27 in China in the face of parental and societal pressures to marry. It culminates in an experience at a Shanghai Marriage Market, where parents try to find partners for their unwed children. The women interviewed agree to attend with their parents, but not for the reason you might think. Anyone can relate.

See the Short:

Remember to turn on the subtitles! If you were touched by this – and we’re sure you will be – share the Film with the hashtag #CHANGEDESTINY.

Several of Hollywood’s A-List are embracing SK-II including Jessica Chastain who uses their products. Cate Blanchett also took part in the #ChangeDestiny campaign:

No rest for the former Wicked cast! International superstar Adam Lambert finally has a gap in his busy schedule amidst his The Original High Tour to proceed his long-awaited work on FOX‘s Rocky Horror Picture Show. He stars as Eddie in the production, which wraps later this month in Toronto!

Although these pictures don’t do it any justice, a silver-maned Lambert was nice off v. little rest last night, stopping to chat with Fans and sign autographs. He declined the Selfie but we’ve met him on prior visits for the MuchMusic Video Awards and his Trespassing disc and he was v. nice!

On going without rest Lambert said, “Thank God I don’t have to sing!”, referring the vocals for his part having been recorded in advance for Rocky Horror.

After achieving extraordinary success in their native Denmark, Soul-Pop Quartet LUKAS GRAHAM already are making huge waves in North America. Unless you completely avoid the radio, it has been impossible to avoid their superb introspective ballad 7 Years which not only has dominated airwaves, but their stateside self-titled debut from which it is released, quickly rose to the top of the iTunes Chart upon release this past weekend!

Fronted by charismatic and talented lead vocalist Lukas Graham Forchhammer, the band played an intimate show in Montreal this weekend before treating Toronto fans to a show at the Velvet Underground. They have a quick Press Day scheduled with some radio and TV appearances in the City.

We caught up with the Band as they were strolling the City’s West End and they were so nice to stop for Photos on their way to soundcheck. It is said that their bass guitar got left behind in Montreal but fortunately they found themselves a replacement in time!

Check out and fall in love with 7 Years from Lukas Graham‘s stellar debut album:

Few names have risen as fast in the past year as Model/Actress Ruby Rose. The Australian beauty despite having been in Toronto multiple times already for series Dark Matter and also during TIFF ’15 when she came to DJ and party with BFF Ellen Page, is back for something much more high-profile.  Cast in upcoming installment of the XXX franchise The Return of Xander Cage, Rose continues work on the Blockbuster as femme fatale, Adele, seeing Co-star Vin Diesel back in action and in his element! The Flick by D.J. Caruso just wrapped its Dominican Republic component and will at some point move to the Philippines.

Rose, pardon the pun, has risen to popularity with her role on Netflix‘s ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK as Stella Carlin.  The Series has been renewed another three seasons based on its Award-winning success!

We caught-up with Rose earlier after a celebratory weekend in Los Angeles accepting the GLAAD Stephen Kolzak Award (from Taylor Swift of all people!) for outstanding contributions to the LGBT community and she is just as amazing as we thought she’d be.  Believe me, we had to work for this. We admit, we have a huge crush!

Los Angeles-based Singer-Songwriter Andy Grammer made a huge splash with one of the biggest hits of Summer 2016, Honey I’m Good. The ode to faithfulness and temptation was unavoidable and since then his sophomore disc Magazines or Novels has spawned hit new single Good to Be Alive!

Grammer‘s growing popularity called for two shows this weekend at Fallsview Casino in Niagara Falls, playing two 80-minute sets Friday and Saturday, his sunny brand of Pop bringing the crowd to their feet.

Post-show, we had dinner beside Grammer at the Casino’s diner The Famous and despite Fans coming up to him throughout the night, he was accomodating and kind.

Grammer is Tampa-bound for a show at Busch Gardens next.

Check out Grammer‘s Lyric Video for Good to Be Alive!
