Marcia! Marcia! Marcia!

I love that Christine Taylor looks more like Marcia Brady in my mind than Maureen McCormick ever did -- kind of like when Cher guest-starred on "Will & Grace" and Jack corrected her on how Ms. Sarkisian is supposed to behave. Three cheers for hyperbole!

Tennis Dominates as Carlos Alcaraz and Aryna Sabalenka Win Laureus Awards

 

It was a big night for my one and only sport at the Laureus Awards, where Carlos Alcaraz and Aryna Sabalenka picked up the top honors in Madrid -- he as Sportsman of the Year, she as Sportswoman of the Year -- capping off dominant 2025 campaigns.

Alcaraz, who showed up with his wrist very much a topic of conversation, reflected on the highs (multiple majors) while keeping one eye on getting back in shape for Roland Garros, while Sabalenka called her whirlwind season “crazy,” full of lessons and big wins.

Elsewhere, the ceremony spread the love to the likes of Lando Norris (breakthrough), Rory McIlroy (comeback) and Paris Saint-Germain (team of the year), but tennis was definitely the star of the show.

Madonna Makes Another 'Comeback'

By now you've likely heard that Madonna took the stage at Coachella over the weekend to tease her sequel to "Confessions on a Dancefloor," which she debuted in the desert some 20 years ago. That era helped put my blog on the map, after Queerty and Towleroad linked to my post noting her resemblance to one Valerie Cherish ... and would you believe Madge up and did it again? 

After her surprise performance with Sabrina Carpenter, the Queen of Pop was seen getting into the groove with her boyfriend, Akeem Morris, while watching Anyma’s main stage set -- but you'd be forgiven for thinking she'd popped by the Viper Room to see Juna Millken's band rock the night away circa 2005.

I can almost hear her "Room & Bored" costar shout out from the stage: "Madonna Ciccone, looking hot!"
