One of the biggest breakout hit series of the Pandemic is Netflix‘s SEX/LIFE which was streamed 2021 in a whopping 67 million households. The Erotic Fantasy series centers on a woman named Billie (Sarah Shahi) who crosses paths once again with her ex-boyfriend Brad (Adam Demos), now a famous Music Producer. The only issue is that she now is married to Cooper (Mike Vogel), with two kids, leaving Billie feeling very conflicted as per past clashes with her present.

The Series while receiving mixed reviews critically, was a smash success among audiences and it is no surprise it was renewed a second season. Even more amazing, it was filmed in Toronto and once again will be returning to Toronto again as it begins production here in February!

We spotted heartthrob Demos back in town getting ready for pre-production. Upon arriving he was subject like many others to a random Covid-19 test but he was in amazing spirits and a class act stopping to take some socially-distanced snaps with fans and airport staff who recognized him right away!

SEX/LIFE films in the City through April and Demos‘ on-screen and real-life partner Shahi is due in town soon as well!

See some Snaps:

And of course here’s a blast from the past in New York with Shahi a few years back at TV Week!

…and of course Mike Vogel too, back at the Upfronts a few years ago!

Chinese New Year falls on February 1, 2022 this year and we are celebrating the Year of the Tiger! Those born in the Year of the Tiger are known for their courage, love of attention, competitive spirit and energy.

Some of my favourite stars are Tigers actually, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Lady Gaga, Stevie Wonder, Tom Cruise and Queen Elizabeth II! Tigers are most compatible with those born in the Year of the Dog, Dragon and Horse. I’m a Dragon so the Tiger is my friend, which is a relief because generally when your sign is compatible with that of the year we are celebrating, that brings good things.

As a rule of thumb when you are celebrating your own actual astrological year, it isn’t always optimal in terms of luck due to conflicting of signs. If you want to see your Chinese Horoscope for the year ahead, I’ve picked-out a couple here which are easy to understand.

Why I love this thoughtful Horoscope is that it gives you a bit of the history behind your sign. It gives you suggestions in compatibility for your partner and gives you things to take caution in.

This site breaks it down for you by LOVE, HEALTH, WEALTH and CAREER. There are also lucky numbers and colours for you to be mindful of.

In case you’re unsure what sign you fall under, here’s a quick guide to help you figure it out:

Mr. Will & beanie

It is the Year of Beanie! Apple TV+ have announced they will be streaming upcoming Feature THE BEANIE BUBBLE! This comes on the heels of recent HBO Max Doc BEANIE MANIA.

Synopsis:

The Beanie Bubble” is inspired by the story behind one of the biggest speculative crazes that blazed through American culture in the 90s. It pulls back the curtain on the absurdities and injustices of the American Dream — particularly the female relationship to it. It’s a celebration of the women who helped power Ty Warner’s success, whose strengths and good instincts shaped and amplified the phenomenon, but whose names are not on the Beanie Babies’ heart-shaped tags.

Kristin Gore (“Saturday Night Live,” “Futurama”) and Grammy Award-winner Damian Kulash (OK Go) will co-direct, with Emmy Award winner Zach Galifianakis (“Between Two Ferns,” “Baskets”), Emmy Award nominee Elizabeth Banks (“The Hunger Games,” “Love and Mercy”), Emmy and Critics Choice Award nominated, and Golden Globe-winner Sarah Snook (“Succession,” “Predestination”), and Geraldine Viswanathan (“Broken Hearts Gallery,” “Hala”) set to lead the star-studded cast.

More to come.
