00:00Shannon Doherty reveals her breast cancer is back, a Bachelor contestant finds herself
00:04in the middle of a controversy, and late-night hosts weigh in on JLo and Shakira's Super
00:09Bowl halftime show.
00:10I'm Tiffany Taylor and right now I've got the top stories you need to know today from
00:14The Hollywood Reporter News.
00:15First, in some sad news, actress Shannon Doherty has revealed that her breast cancer has returned
00:20at stage four in a new interview with ABC News.
00:23It's going to come out in a matter of days or a week that I'm stage four, so my cancer
00:29came back.
00:30Though she's been living with the latest turn in her health battle privately for a year,
00:34Doherty ultimately spoke out to control the narrative of her experience with a terminal
00:38illness as it would have otherwise likely come out in her current legal battle.
00:41It's a bitter pill to swallow in a lot of ways.
00:44It's not fair, why me?
00:45Why me?
00:46There are days where I say, why me, and then I go, well, why not me?
00:49Who else?
00:50You know?
00:51Who else besides me deserves this?
00:52None of us do.
00:53When Doherty was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015, she was very transparent about
00:57her struggles.
00:58However, this time around, she silently dealt with her cancer while filming Fox's BH90210
01:03reboot, shortly after her friend and former co-star Luke Perry died at age 52, after suffering
01:09a major stroke.
01:10It was so weird for me to be diagnosed and then somebody who was, you know, seemingly healthy
01:20to go first.
01:21The actress went on to say that she only told a small circle of friends about her diagnosis
01:25during filming, with one of them being her co-star Brian Austin Green, whom she said she
01:29was able to lean on.
01:31Over on The Bachelor, the petty pilot Pete drama seems to be getting more and more dramatic
01:35with each episode.
01:37But in an interesting turn of events, Monday night's group date competition didn't pan out
01:41exactly as planned.
01:43T.H.R.'s Neha Joy in New York has all the details.
01:45During the episode, the ladies headed to Costa Rica and competed in a fashion photo shoot where
01:50the winner was offered the chance to appear on a future cover of Cosmopolitan magazine,
01:54along with Bachelor Peter Weber.
01:56As viewers saw, the lucky lady crowned the winner was Victoria Fuller. However, on Tuesday
02:00Cosmo's editor-in-chief, Jessica Pels, who appeared on the episode, announced that the
02:04magazine would not be running the digital cover as planned. In an editor's letter titled,
02:09Why We're Not Publishing the Cosmo Bachelor cover, Pels offered why they decided to pull
02:13the digital cover, explaining,
02:15It wasn't until a few weeks ago that I found out that the woman I'd chosen had, in her past,
02:19modeled in an ad campaign wearing White Lives Matter attire.
02:23It was reported that the campaign was for a Marlin Lives Matter organization that used
02:27White Lives Matter and Blue Lives Matter messaging. However, Pels added,
02:31In my view, the nature of the organization is neither here nor there. Both phrases and the
02:36belief systems they represent are rooted in racism and therefore problematic.
02:40THR has reached out to ABC for comment. And finally, even though the Kansas City Chiefs were the ones
02:46who won the Super Bowl, people seemed to be much more focused on Jennifer Lopez and Shakira's
02:51energetic halftime show, which featured JLo showing off the same moves she did in the film
02:56Hustlers and performing on a poll. Late night hosts used their Monday shows to weigh in.
03:00On CBS's The Late Show, Stephen Colbert said of the halftime show,
03:04First Shakira, whose hips again did not lie while under oath. Then JLo, who showed off an impressive
03:09pole dance.
03:10Yes, it's a tradition dating back to Super Bowl I when Bob Hope did the exact same choreography.
03:15It looks good.
03:17Over on Comedy Central's The Daily Show, Trevor Noah said,
03:20Some people were really pissed that JLo pulled out a stripper pole to do some moves.
03:24For all those parents, just tell your kids JLo is a fireman.
03:27Noah then acknowledged that Lopez spent months learning how to be a professional dancer for
03:32Hustlers, in which he played a stripper. He said,
03:35Meanwhile, Jimmy Fallon related the halftime show to the Iowa caucuses during a new
03:44smash segment on NBC's The Tonight Show.
03:46The winner will gain momentum while the losers slide down the poles.
03:49You know who else lay down a pole? JLo in the Super Bowl halftime show.
03:53And on ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live, the late night host briefly discussed the halftime show,
03:58explaining that most everyone seemed to like it, including former Florida Governor Jeb Bush.
04:03Best Super Bowl halftime show ever.
04:07Period. No exclamation point. Low energy. Low energy.
04:12And that's just Jebby from the block.
