"It was kind of nice that it was Day One," Lawrence said, "'cause then it wasn't hanging over our heads."

Seyfried said that plan was "actually brilliant," before adding, "If you know what the genitals look like, then you don't wonder."

Lawrence agreed: "Then I don't have to think about it."

‘Wicked’ composer says he won’t appear at Kennedy Center after name change

"Wicked" composer Stephen Schwartz says he will not appear at the Kennedy Center after its board voted to attach President Donald Trump's name to the venue — becoming the latest artist to push back against the president's takeover of Washington's most iconic performing arts center.

The Oscar and Grammy-award winning composer said in a statement, "The Kennedy Center was founded to be an apolitical home for artists of all nationalities and all ideologies. It is no longer apolitical, and appearing there has become an ideological statement. As long as that remains the case, I will not appear there."

The center's website had listed Schwartz as appearing in a gala with the Washington National Opera in May, and included a link to buy tickets to the performance, but it was removed from the website Friday afternoon.

In spite of the website listing the upcoming appearance by Schwartz, Richard Grenell, the president of the center's board, denied that he had ever been signed to appear.

"He was never signed and I've never had a single conversation on him since arriving," Grenell said in a post on X, calling reports of Schwartz's cancelation "totally bogus."

"He himself said last February he hadn't heard anything on it," Grenell said.

A spokesman for Schwartz said the composer and a person associated with the Washington National Opera had been in communication about his "possible participation" in a May gala, and they had last spoken in February 2025.

"Having not heard anything further after that point, he assumed—incorrectly, as it turns out—that the event was no longer moving forward," the spokesman, Michael Cole, said in an email to CNN. Cole added that Schwartz had only learned Thursday night that the event was still scheduled.

The Kennedy Center opened in 1971, designated by Congress as a living memorial to the assassinated President John F. Kennedy. Schwartz attended the center's opening.

But a stream of artists have canceled their appearances since Trump purged the center's existing board and installed a slate of loyalists to oversee the center last year. Since then, the center has cut staff and reevaluated its programming.

More artists canceledafter the new board voted last month to rename the center "The Donald J. Trump and The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts."

The New York City-based dance company Doug Varone and Dancers is among those who cancelled their upcoming performances. The company's director, Doug Varone, appearing on CNN's "Erin Burnett OutFront" on Friday said the decision to cancel was unanimous — despite the financial hit from lost revenue.

"Everyone in our organization from our board to our dancers to our staff all supported this decision," he said. "I can't imagine any artist wanting to step through those doors right now with his name on that building."

The decision by artists to bow out of scheduled appearances prompted threats of legal action from the Kennedy Center against some of the artists.

The move to add Trump's name to the center quickly raised legal concerns as to whether the board had the legal authority to rename the arts institution. But it's unclear whether anybody looking to challenge the renaming would have legal standing to do so,experts previously told CNN.

Trump-aligned MAGA Inc super PAC enters 2026 with $300 million stockpile

By Kanishka Singh

WASHINGTON, Jan 2 (Reuters) - A campaign funding group aligned with Republican U.S. President Donald ​Trump, Make America Great Again Inc, entered 2026 ‌with an almost $300 million stockpile ahead of this year's midterm elections, ‌a filing showed on Friday.

Between July 1 and December 22, MAGA Inc raised about $102 million, according to the filing with the Federal Election Commission. Nearly half of that ⁠amount came from ‌three sources:OpenAIco-founder Greg Brockman gave $25 million; Foris DAX Inc, operator of the ‍Crypto.com exchange, gave $20 million; and private equity investor Konstantin Sokolov contributed $11 million.

The super political action committee can use the stockpile for ​the November midterms, which will gauge the public's ‌perception of Trump's policies in his second term. Trump cannot constitutionally run for a third term as president.

Republicans hold narrow majorities in the House of Representatives and the Senate.

Major U.S. firms have sought to strengthen ties ⁠with Trump since he returned ​to office in January last year. ​Many prominent business leaders attended his inauguration, and some have been hosted by him at ‍the White ⁠House.

Many wealthy individuals and large U.S. tech, cryptocurrency, energy and defense corporations have donated to pay for ⁠the construction of a $300 million White House ballroom commissioned by Trump.

US Coast Guard searches for survivors of boat strikes as odds diminish days later

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Coast Guard said Friday it's still searching for people in the eastern Pacific Ocean who hadjumped off alleged drug-smuggling boatswhen the U.S. military attacked the vessels days earlier, diminishing the likelihood that anyone survived.

Search efforts began Tuesday afternoon after the military notified the Coast Guard that survivors were in the water about 400 miles (650 kilometers) southwest of the border between Mexico and Guatemala, the maritime service said in a statement.

The Coast Guard dispatched a plane from Sacramento to search an area covering more than 1,000 miles (1,600 kilometers), while issuing an urgent warning to ships nearby. The agency said it coordinated more than 65 hours of search efforts, working with other countries as well as civilian ships and boats in the area.

The weather during that time has included 9-foot seas and 40-knot winds. The U.S. has not said how many people jumped into the water, and, if they are not found, how far the death toll may rise from the Trump administration's monthslongcampaign of blowing up small boatsaccused of transporting drugs in the region.

The U.S. military said earlier this week that it attacked three boats traveling along known narco-trafficking routes and they "had transferred narcotics between the three vessels prior to the strikes." The military did not provide evidence to back up the claim.

U.S. Southern Command, which oversees the region, said three people were killed when the first boat was struck, while people in the other two boats jumped overboard and distanced themselves from the vessels before they were attacked.

The strikes occurred in a part of the eastern Pacific where the Navy doesn't have any ships operating. Southern Command said it immediately notified the U.S. Coast Guard to activate search and rescue efforts for the people who jumped overboard before the other boats were hit.

Calling in the Coast Guard is notable because the military drew heavy scrutiny after U.S. forceskilled the survivors of the first attack in early Septemberwith a follow-up strike to their disabled boat. Some Democratic lawmakers andlegal experts saidthe military committed a crime, while the Trump administration and some Republican lawmakers say the follow-up strike was legal.

There have been other survivors of the boat strikes, including one for whom the Mexican Navysuspended a searchin late October after four days.Two other survivors of a strikeon a submersible vessel in the Caribbean Sea that same month were sent to their home countries — Ecuador and Colombia. Authorities in Ecuador laterreleased the man, saying they had no evidence he committed a crime in the South American nation.

Under President Donald Trump's direction, the U.S. military has been attacking boats in the Caribbean Sea and eastern Pacific since early September. As of Friday, the number of known boat strikes is 35 and the number of people killed is at least 115, according to numbers announced by the Trump administration.

Trump hasjustified the boat strikesas a necessary escalation to stem the flow of drugs into the United States and asserted that the U.S. is engaged in an"armed conflict" with drug cartels.

Along with the strikes, the Trump administration has built up military forces in the region as part of an escalating pressure campaign on Venezuelan PresidentNicolás Maduro, who has been charged with narco-terrorism in the United States.

Who was Victoria Jones? What to know about Tommy Lee Jones' daughter

Victoria Jones, the daughter of Academy Award-winning actorTommy Lee Jones, was found dead in a San Francisco hotel in the early hours of New Year's Day.

Paramedics responding to a call for a medical emergency pronounced her dead in the hallway of the Fairmont Hotel just before 3 a.m. local time, according to the San Francisco Fire Department.
