Meredith Wilson's seminal classic The Music Man at long last reopened on Broadway after two years of delays due to issues surrounding the pandemic, Scott Rudin—the original producer—and other problems.

And while The Music Man's long awaited opening wasn't particularly well-received, star Hugh Jackman has been praised for his performance. Jackman stars as as the eponymous music man himself Harold Hill—a conman who gets more than he bargains for when he stumbles upon River City, Iowa and their particularly headstrong and passionate librarian Marian.


He has also been ruthlessly teased by none other than Ryan Reynolds.




"I have the most amazing friends," wrote Jackman.

"Gorgeous flowers, champagne and heartfelt well wishes. I am blessed. And then, there’s him."

Alongside two portraits of Reynolds himself was a note stuck to one that simply said "Hugh, good luck with your little show. I'll be watching."




In reply, Reynolds simply retweeted Jackman without any further commentary.

But Reynolds and director Shawn Levy, who has helmed both Reynolds' Free Guy—which Jackman has a cameo in—and the upcoming The Adam Project were both in the audience for opening night.

Reynolds appeared to enjoy the show, posting to his Instagram story it was "actually perfect."




The Music Man is now running at the Winter Garden theater in midtown Manhattan, New York, New York.

Reynolds' The Adam Project will be released March 11, 2022.

Trans Flag Firing at Yosemite

A Transgender Pride flag raised over Yosemite’s El Capitan in May has now become the hill the National Park Service chose to die on—costing one ranger their job and igniting a national uproar about free speech, visibility, and hypocrisy on America’s public lands.

Dr. Shannon “SJ” Joslin, a ranger who is trans and uses they/them pronouns, was joined by activists including drag queen Pattie Gonia in what was described as “a celebration of trans belonging in nature, in community and everywhere.”

Cambridge Dictionary Just Added Over 6,000 New Words Including 'Skibidi'—And People Are Not OK

Every year, the Cambridge Dictionary rolls out new additions to its catalogue of accepted terms, and just as the English language is always changing, so is that catalogue.

But admittedly in recent years, the Cambridge Dictionary and Merriam-Webster have both had some validating and interesting additions, like updating their definitions of "woman" and "race," as well as adding "first husband" while Vice President Kamala Harris was in office.
