love galore

i love you. i love us. if it ever comes to a fight then please know that i fully plan on jumping in. we could totally take them down in one swing. i am! i’m here for a bit before i leave to film the staircase, so please come love me down while we have the time. how was the trip, babe? i wanna hear all about it! don’t leave anything out. oh my gosh, we can totally cry together! i’m just so excited to celebrate with all my loved ones. the planning is going pretty smoothly, honestly. would you like to come help me pick out some flower arrangements later next week? we can do lunch while we’re at it too!

Ugh, you’re an angel. I love you way more. Of course we could! We’re badass ladies who don’t need no man. Oh, that's right! Congratulations on the new role, babe. You know I love seeing you on my screen and I love everything about true crime, so of course I’ll be tuning in every week. I can’t wait! Are you excited to work with Toni Collette? Please tell her I love her. She won’t have a clue who I am, but she just needs to know what a queen she is. It was good! I never thought I’d actually get the chance to go, so that was pretty special. We’ll just cry into each others arms, but don’t worry, I'll bring enough Kleenex for the both of us. I’d love to! Count me in. Do you guys have a set color scheme, or are you saving that as a surprise for the big day?

Demi: Ahhh, I adore you so much. Know that it absolutely goes both ways, though. You're just as amazing and deserve all the praise in the world, babes. ❤️

Demi: Very, very good choices. Listen, this whole album is like my baby. And if I picked a favorite or favorites, it'd be like picking a favorite child, so I CANNOT. 😂 HOWEVER... Lately, I've been loving Carefully and Easy. But it honestly changes everyday!

Demi: Oh, I would love to go to Jamaica! That's one place I've yet to go to and I keep kicking myself for not doing so. I just would love to immerse myself in the culture and the amazing food, and all the good things that come with it! You could say that again. I love going on vacations, but nothing compares to sleeping in your own bed. Nothing quite like it. The Maldives were so great to the both of us! I hope to go back super soon.

Laura: Oh my heart 🥺 I adore you!! You are such a shining star for so many people, and I couldn’t be more grateful to have you in my life.

Laura: I know, I know! It's impossible to choose when you've created such a beautiful work of art, my favorite song definitely changes every day because lately I've been obsessing over The Kind Of Lover I Am, also your Mad World cover!? Perfection. Your voice is just so therapeutic.

Crazy coincidence cause you’re my favorite tent mate! I am, I am. I’m shooting at the moment so I’m trying to be on my best healthy behavior so that I don’t die. You know, as one does in our weird ass industry. I loved camping, but I love you way more! I promise as soon as I wrap, I’ll be all yours. Are you gonna be around next week to maybe possibly show up to your favorite tent mate’s birthday party? Asking for a friend. 

Am I really? Wow, what a fucking honor. I shall wear this title with the utmost pride. Ooh what’re you working on? Are you allowed to say, or is it still under wraps? Ugh, my heart. I love you most! Don't fight me on this, because I will win — every single time. Of course I’ll be there! You know I wouldn’t miss it for the world. Halloween is my absolute favorite and I love that I have a totally valid excuse to get my spook on in the middle of summer, and the fact I get to celebrate the scream queen herself? Chef's kiss.

Same here. Patience is something I have to work on because I swear I wasn’t born with it. I am one of those people who will be told “wait 15 minutes” and I’ll be looking at the clock every two minutes because I’m just that kind of person. I understand why extended breaks happen but then that forces me to deal with reality instead of watching television. Me too! Watching them grow is crazy. So the second season of The Wilds will be based on the boys. People were so mean with the responses though. I’m almost positive that this season will have the girls from the first season trying to help the boys in the second season because they can’t just end the girls’ story like that. I’m heard of it, yes! But I haven’t gotten the chance to watch it yet. 

You and me both! Waiting is not my thing. Are you also the type of person who orders something online and then immediately looks out the window to see if it has arrived? That's how impatient I am. Ugh, right? TV is the perfect way to escape reality. Do you have a comfort show? Like a show you watch when you just want to be cozy and relax? Mine’s The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. I’ve lost count on how many times I’ve watched and rewatched that show. Still holds up today; so funny, and way more culturally important than it gets credit for. Oh, really? That’s terrible. Social media is such a cruel place sometimes. You have to watch it! A wild ride from start to finish. It's only six episodes too, so it's a quick and easy watch.

when have i ever broke a promise? i’m pretty good at keeping promises, especially with my great pal laura! i love laura to pieces… oh hey! you’re laura! also, stop being so quiet. when was the last time we talked to each other? we need to get together and do something. want me to take you out to dinner? i’m thinking, hmm… olive garden? i’ve been craving their salads, haha!

You love me? How cute. You know I love you too, and I’ll love you even more if you take me to Olive Garden. Unlimited breadsticks and salad is the one-way ticket to my heart. When are you free? I’ve been all over the place lately, but I’m finally back home for some long-awaited R&R, so my schedule is looking pretty clear.

That wouldn’t happen! It just wouldn’t. Nobody would be questioning the queen, because we wouldn’t let that happen. Are we going to be her biggest fans? It’s a classic story, right? It was a lot of fun, and I hope you enjoy it. That makes two of us though, because I really love seeing your face on my screen. I have heard a lot of good things about it, so I am excited to see it. I heard there is going to be another season with it? I thought I heard that somewhere. It’s going great, love. I have been still wrapping up on Supergirl, and we are almost coming to an end. My emotions are everywhere. How about you? Tell me everything.

That’s right! Rule #1: don’t mess with the BeyHive ‘cause you’ll regret it, if you live to see another day. Queen Bey is queen for a reason. What’s your favorite Beyoncé song, by the way? There is no wrong answer, but I still need to know. Oh, that’s so sweet of you to say! I really love and admire your work, so that means a lot coming from you. It was originally planned as a limited series, but it's become so popular that everyone is asking for another season, so... maybe? I think it’ll be more of an anthology series if Netflix picks it up for a second season, though. Aww! I still can’t believe Supergirl is coming to an end already, but at least it’ll go out on its own terms, with a proper series finale. Are you taking any items from the set to keep as a memento? I just got back from a little trip to see where my grandfather grew up in Ukraine, I never thought I’d actually get the chance to go, so that was pretty special.

laura: just a daily reminder that i love you SO MUCH 🥰

laura: and i miss you a bunch!!!

given how utterly chaotic our friendship is sometimes, i feel like it makes perfect sense for our reunion to be in the middle of nowhere. it just like fits, ya know? – but so happy to see you again, babe! feels like it’s truly been forever since we last spoke. how about when we get back to LA? not working anymore so my time is yours. how are you enjoying the trip so far, though? did you get a cute tent mate? 

Yess! Our friendship is pure chaos, but that’s why I love us so much. We’re the best duo ever and I'll fight anyone who disagrees. Are you back in LA? I just returned from a little trip to see where my grandfather grew up in Ukraine, and I’m ready to love you down. Let’s have a pre-wedding celebration! Gah. I'm sooo happy for you, Soph. Already stocking up on all the Kleenex because I know I’ll be a sobbing mess. Weddings always make me emotional, but especially so when it’s one of my nearest and dearest friends. How’s the wedding planning going, by the way? If you need anything at all, you know I’ll be more than happy to help.

You do! I honestly want to stay at the Rosebud and go shopping at Rose Apothecary. It was so sweet. Yes, it was a joy to watch them fall in love and have such a lovely story. I know! All the cast were just so perfect for their roles but those two really hit the nail on the head with just how well they worked. It really does. I am actually one of eight. I am the third oldest out of them. 

You and me both! That would be such a dream come true. Like, why is Rose Apothecary not a real store I can go to and spend wild amounts of money at? I need it. Absolutely! I know spin-offs are a little overdone at this point, but I’d watch a David and Patrick spin-off in a heartbeat. I’d love to see their life in Schitt’s Creek after the wedding, and I honestly just can’t get enough of those two together. One of eight? Oh wow! That’s amazing. Are you close with your siblings?

i could never forget about you. if there’s going to be a second season to hollywood, which would be fuckin’ awesome, we’re going to have to catch up sooner rather than later. imagine a second season, though — it’d be so crazy! i’d be told to do more sex scenes, i bet. i haven’t been up to much, though. just been hanging out, being your friendly neighborhood lazy man. i’ve also been secretly working on a few projects here and there as well. what have you been up to since the last time i talked to you?

Never? Don’t make promises you can’t keep, Corenswet. A second season would be amazing! How do we make it happen? I’m not above begging, I’ll try the puppy dog eyes trick and all. Well, I mean... duh. You know that’s why everyone tuned into the first season, right? Your sex scenes with Broadway living legend Patti Lupone sold the show. That’s no fun! Why are you being lazy when you can be hanging out and having fun with me, hm? Things have been pretty quiet on my end, I’ve just been enjoying some time off while working on a few partnerships in between. Nothing too exciting.

With some of the remakes or reboots or spinoffs, they just feel like a cash grab and it’s really apparent. Do they not think the viewers don’t notice? I definitely think there’s a way to further most stories but still pay homage to the original or at least respect it. My Grandpa Tom is super important to me and Phoebe knows that. It was her idea to have things in Alberta so he could be there. It’ll be fall, September 12th, to be precise. We’re thinking of having some kind of celestial/star theme and it probably won’t be super over the top. We’re both pretty low key people but I know she’s already got a quite a Pintrest board going. I’m just going to look at my phone with about 20 some odd true crime podcasts on it and laugh. Yeah, I’m definitely into true crime and I’m proud to say I got Phoebe into it as well.

100% agreed, a lot of these remakes feel like cash grabs with no passion and I think a lot of them are driven by nostalgia — which I get, everyone loves a trip down memory lane, but it’s a little overdone at this point, right? Like, who asked for a Rugrats reboot? The original still holds up incredibly well. Aw, that’s so sweet! Grandparents are the best. Did you spend a lot of time with yours growing up? Oh, nice! Fall weddings are so beautiful and full of warm colors. Celestial/star theme? Oh my, that just sounds gorgeous! I’m obsessing already. Oooof, I hate how addictive Pinterest is. It’s like a rabbit hole, once you go down, you hardly find your way out. True crime is so interesting, isn’t it? It doesn’t help my paranoia, though.

Oh you have not heard that my son is taking lessons from Spider Man?  He thinks cause Peter Parker can read by laying on the back of the couch so can he.  He actually dressed up as Spider Man for Margot and Sebastian’s engagement party last month.  They are, they have been listening to the soundtrack since we watched the production on Disney+ when it was released last July.  I really am, I think it will be amazing especially after seeing who is cast in it and all.  I am also excited for West Side Story also.  I am excited for all of the musicals that are coming to all the streaming services.  

Believe me I do my best, I have only caught up on the show in the last few weeks watching it with my oldest daughter Mia cause we wanted to understand why they are bringing April back.  It all makes sense to me now cause of where Jackson was heading when he was taking off in his car a few episodes back.  You know I will.  What episode are you on?  Thank you, girl, I am so happy with the response it is getting the last few weeks and we are just getting started.  Let me just say I am loving Big Sky also, I would totally have loved to be apart of that show with the amazing cast.  

A Spider-Man fan, huh? Excellent taste. Call me bias but I think he’s pretty much the coolest superhero around. Who doesn't want to web sling around New York? Oh, I love that! Do they have a favorite song? I know it’s impossible to choose, but Wait for It is definitely my most-played song from the soundtrack. Leslie Odom Jr. is a force of nature and I want him to sing me lullabies every night while I fall asleep. Yes! West Side Story looks incredible and I’m excited to see Dear Evan Hansen on the big screen, too.

i’m so glad you put together an itinerary, because i had every intention of staying inside my tent the entire trip, but since you put in so much work i’m excited to see what you have planned for us. as long as i get to spend all my time with you then i’ll be happy. it’s been pretty good so far. i got dumped right before i got here, so that was fun, but hey on the bright side i get to have a tent all to myself now.

You know me! Always organized and ready to roll. I'm certainly no camping expert, but exploring the great outdoors and being one with nature is where I'm the most happy, especially with you by my side. Wait, what? What the fuck? What happened? You don’t have to talk about it but you know I’m here if you need to, right? Better yet, why don't we just pop open this bottle of rosé instead and get this party started? Take your mind off of it and just have fun, babe. You deserve it.
