Olivia Munn Shares Emotional Behind-The-Scenes Video From Right Before Her Double Mastectomy
To honor World Breast Cancer Research Day, Munn shared a particularly emotional and vulnerable Instagram post that featured her and her husband, John Mulaney, sitting on her hospital bed before she went into surgery for her double mastectomy. The two held hands, spoke quietly to each other, and touched foreheads.
Munn wrote in the caption of the post:
"This was May 2023 right before I was wheeled in for my double mastectomy, the first of five surgeries I would have in a determined battle to beat breast cancer."
"Today is #WorldBreastCancerResearchDay. My breast cancer and my mother’s breast cancer are both very aggressive, fast-moving cancers. And because of funding for breast cancer research, we both had a path to survival."
"Endocrine therapy was discovered to be effective only 20 years ago. It’s a hormone therapy that works to keep hormones from reaching cancer cells, which is a treatment plan I’m currently on. Because of funding for breast cancer research, there are treatment plans that give me and so many others hope."
"Funding is still desperately needed to help find cures, perfect the treatments, and most importantly, determine which patients need them."

Some fans had gone through a similar experience and found her words validating.

Munn continues to advocate for breast cancer awareness, appropriate and regular testing, and increased cancer research.
Since her mother was also diagnosed with breast cancer, Munn has voiced the importance of getting tested early and often, and if what a doctor tells you does not match your experience in your own body, it's best to get a second opinion or to complete a Tyrer-Cuzick Risk Assessment online, which Munn keeps linked in her social media bio for easy access.
Salma Hayek Pays Tribute To Matthew Perry On His Birthday With Sweet 'Fools Rush In' Clip
One sweet tribute came from Frida's Salma Hayek, who starred opposite Perry in the 1997 romantic comedy Fools Rush In, where the pair faced a pregnancy after a one-night stand and discovered what it really meant to grow together and fall in love.
Two days after Perry's passing, Hayek posted on Instagram that she'd needed time to process the news and that she would always look back on their time together, and how they shared their dreams, with extreme fondness.
Perry would have turned 56 on August 19, and Hayek found herself remembering her late co-star.
In remember him, she shared an iconic photo from Fools Rush In, along with one of the most popular clips from the film.
Holding hands as the pair walked around to the back of the house to a family party, Perry's Alex was shocked by the number of people:
"This is a family dinner?"
Hayek's Isabel, unphased by the group, offered:
"I guess a lot of people couldn't make it."
Then Hayek wrote in the caption:
"Thinking of you today, Matthew."
"Pensando en ti hoy, Matthew."

Fellow Instagrammers were touched by the reminder of Fools Rush In.

In his memoir Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing, Perry wrote about Hayek, their time together making Fools Rush In, and their friendship.
While they didn't always agree about acting approaches, he recalled her with extreme fondness.
"Her long-winded ideas weren't always helpful. There's one scene in which I'm professing my love for her, and she suggested that we don't look at each other, rather, that we should look out at our future together."
"I finally said, 'Listen, Salma, I'm telling you I love you in this scene. You look wherever you want, but I'm going to be looking at you.'"
Whatever they settled on worked, and the scene proved to be a fan favorite.
Somehow, it's been almost two years since the awkward boyfriend in Fools Rush In and wise-cracking best friend in Friends passed away. May his memory live on through his work, his co-stars, and the people who loved him.
Sharon Stone Offers Hilariously Blunt Reaction To Planned Reboot Of 'Basic Instinct'
Basic Instinct basically blew up the country when it premiered in 1992 because of its nudity, sex scenes, and LGBTQ themes that were a level of explicit that was rarely seen outside adult film at the time.
Coming at a time of intense backlash against feminism, the film being centered on a devious, sexually voracious female criminal caused pearl-clutching that translated to huge box office and instantly made Stone a household name.
In short, the film was lightning in a bottle, which is likely why Stone's take on Amazon's attempt to replicate it came down to just three words.
- YouTube youtu.be
Asked about the reboot, Stone deadpanned:
"Good f*cking luck."
Stone's take was also in reference to the previous attempt at rehashing Basic Instinct, 2006's Basic Instinct 2, in which Stone reprised her role as Catherine Tramell.
Unlike the first film, the sequel bombed—hard. Stone told Melvin:
“If it goes the way the one that I was in went, I would just say I do not know why you’d do it!"
The forthcoming reboot is at least written by the original screenwriter, but fans on Reddit are just as skeptical as Stone is.
"Hollywood will literally do anything except make original content. And it should be of no shock to Hollywood why their revenue numbers consistently decline year after year." —u/copperblood
"I can only imagine what they discussed in that boardroom meeting. Who the hell thought this was a good idea and it would be successful? No one wants this and no one asked for it. Morons, just morons running these decisions." —u/m0rbius
"They’ll probably cast Sydney Sweeney and Timothy Chalomet" —u/schprunt
But while fans may not be enthused about the reboot, they are still very much here for Sharon Stone herself.
Those who remember Stone fondly will be happy to hear that she also spoke to Melvin about her long hiatus from acting coming to an end.
Stone, now 67, left the business for the most part years ago to care for herself after suffering a near-deadly stroke, and to raise her three children, Roan, Laird and Quinn.
But she is now set to join the season three cast of the HBO drama Euphoria, returning next year.
