O'Shea Jackson Jr

As far as the rest of this summer movie season is concerned, Ingrid Goes West is my most anticipated film (sorry, Spidey). Aubrey Plaza continues her totally unreal tour of pop culture insanity (see also: Legion) in the latest trailer for the Sundance favorite — a social media parable in which Plaza plays a self-destructive, Instagram-obsessed young woman who seeks validation through likes, which she confuses for legit human love…you know, like all of us.

The monster-verse is slowly getting invaded by NWA — at least, by the actors who played them. Both Jason Mitchell (Eazy E) and Corey Hawkins (Dr. Dre) had supporting roles in Kong: Skull Island, and today, not wanting to miss out on the fun, O’Shea Jackson Jr. is in talks to join the Godzilla sequel Godzilla: King of Monsters.

I have a young daughter, and I love sharing pictures and videos of her antics on social media. Occasionally people who follow me online will tell me in person how much they love my baby or how happy I seem with her. And I am. But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows; I just don’t share the moments where she wakes the whole house up at 4AM or has diaper rash so bad that she screams for 10 minutes straight. The line bteween reality and fiction online can get very blurry — and sometimes the persona we create there is much more appealing than the real thing.
