DOES the queen of England even rule over the USA Network?


When the season finale of its show Suits — Meghan Markle’s last episode on the show after seven years before leaving to marry Prince Harry — came and went with no fanfare on Wednesday, TV insiders noted the NBC-Universal-owned network kept all too quiet about the big occasion.

Ms Markle’s upcoming nuptials to the prince would have been a PR bonanza for the show, especially because her character, Rachel Zane, got married in the episode.


Yet no clear pictures of Markle in her TV wedding gown were blasted to the press and no interviews with the cast about working with her.

The move sparked TV industry speculation that Buckingham Palace may have intervened with a request for NBC discretion, to ensure the royal family’s newest member would not bring a Hollywood hangover into her new life as Duchess of Sussex.


Another NBC insider speculated they deliberately downplayed Meghan’s TV wedding in the hopes of landing interviews with her and Prince Harry once she’s a royal bride.


The insider said, “NBC execs likely decided not to embarrass Meghan with a Suits media blitz right before the royal wedding, hoping it will pay off with future access to her and Harry.”


The Palace declined to comment, while a Suits rep sniffed, “there is no truth to this.”


NBC has some royal connection.

In 2014 Page Six reported that the network was considering offering Pippa Middleton a gig as a correspondent on the Today show after she sat for an interview with Matt Lauer.


Meanwhile, Lauer also interviewed Prince William and Prince Harry the same year about their military service.

Gossip Cop can set the record straight. The superstar undoubtedly remains one of music’s top touring acts. But OK! has been peddling a months-long storyline about the singer’s latest concert series supposedly struggling. In May, the magazine spread a false story about Swift using boyfriend Joe Alwyn to boost ticket sales . As Gossip Cop explained, however, her romance was in no way tied to the success of her tour, and she had no need to resort to such a publicity stunt. Months before the launch, Billboard reported that Swift’s tour was already on track to become “one of the

Fair warning, both the not-so-subtle imagery and Ariana herself push the boundaries of what some consider appropriate for a music video. She’s radiating what some might call Big Vagina Energy. Take a look: Pete Davidson is a lucky man . Ariana Grande’s “God Is A Woman” music video takes viewers on an artistic tour of the sacred feminine. We mentioned that some of her imagery was not especially subtle and potentially crossed some lines. What we meant by that is

Not as good as the year before but still good. He is young, he is full of football skills, very stable, very good in small spaces, endurance-wise fantastic, quick, good finishes, good runs in the box. “So that’s a package that’s really inter
