Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby seem to be very good friends.

Their clear rapport is obvious during very touchy interviews for The Fantastic Four: First Steps.

Is there a platonic version of PDA? Sure! And that seems to be what they’re displaying.

Some fans are confused, wondering if there’s something more. Others just envy Vanessa Kirby or Pedro Pascal. Or both.

‘Fantastic Four’ stars Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby are getting along very, very well

Just weeks ago, theater-goers could scarcely believe their eyes at the first truly good live-action Superman film, ever.

Now, reviews make it clear that the same is true of The Fantastic Four: First Steps.

We never thought that we’d see a good theatrical adaptation in our lifetimes.

One part of this success is the cast, including Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach.

As you can see from the tweet below, Pascal and Kirby are getting a lot of attention in interviews.

The two portray Reed Richards and Sue Storm in the film.

Though Mister Fantastic is a polarizing (at best) superhero among comics fans, the couple are one of the most enduring and iconic Marvel pairings of all time.

For these actors, their on-screen chemistry extends to unscripted interviews. There’s a lot of touching and it’s grabbing people’s attention.

Everyone wants to be one of them or the other (or their hypothetical ‘third’)

“Oh, to be Pedro Pascal and constantly have my neck caressed by Vanessa Kirby,” one denizen of the fallen corpse of what was once Twitter wrote alongside a supercut of Kirby reaching out and stroking Pascal.

Pascal is one of those people who seems to have intense and flirtatious chemistry with everyone.

He is kind, he is charming, and rumor has it that he is anatomically blessed.

To be clear, none of the touching is sexual. Pascal has embraced many co-stars of various genders while promoting all sorts of projects.

Meanwhile, some internet trolls — possibly people who hate Pascal for being a famously good person, but possibly people who’d be this way about any famous man — asked how he can “get away with” being so touch-feely.

Simply put, these are people who heard #MeToo horror stories about sexual predators using power, blackmail, and cultural pressure and thought “what, so we can’t touch women now?“

The point, always, is about consent. Many people would happily consent to hold hands with Pascal or have Kirby give them neck scritches.

That is not the same thing as a powerful agent groping someone at a gala. This is not actually a difficult topic to understand, and it is confusing that people pretend that it is.

Is this another cynical marketing ploy?

Just for the record, Vanessa Kirby is still in a relationship with Paul Rabil.

She is also, if the photos did not make it clear, pregnant.

The news broke in May. No, she’s not wearing a prosthetic baby bump to tease the birth of Franklin Richards.

Most of the time, these red carpet relationship rumors are intentional ways to promote a film.

In this case, though, it might just be Pedro Pascal’s limitless rizz at work.

Ever since Natalie Portman’s divorce from Benjamin Millepied, fans have been quick to link the A-list actress with pretty much every guy she’s been spotted with in public.

And now, Natalie is about to be subjected to the most intense scrutiny of her career, as she’s caught the attention of the internet’s most rabid fan base.

Yes, worlds are colliding as the Natalie shippers are now coming into contact with Swifties.

Natalie Portman-Austin Swift photo sparks romance rumors

Natalie was spotted in New York City this week, where she appeared to be enjoying the company of Taylor Swift’s brother, Austin Swift.

Naturally, fans are jumping to wild conclusions and assuming that Natalie and Taylor will be sister-in-law besties before the year is out.

But before you get too excited and start brainstorming cute couple names (Autalie? Naustin?), you should know that there’s no indication that the relationship between Austin and Natalie is anything more than a platonic friendship.

In fact, it looks like they both might have been in New York for professional reasons.

It seems that Natalie is in New York to star in a new Lena Dunham film titled Good Sex.

“After spending a decade in a failed relationship, pragmatic couples’ therapist Ally is turning 40 and reluctantly dipping her toe back into the New York dating scene,” reads an official Netflix synopsis for the movie.

“But she gets more than she bargained for when she meets two men- one in his twenties and one in his fifties- who show her there is no set formula for good sex.”

Now, Taylor is close friends with Lena — or at least she was at one point — so it’s widely assumed that Austin’s presence on or near the film’s set is not coincidental.

Is he making his acting debut? Scoring his first executive producer set? Just stopping by because he’s famous, and he’s allowed to do that?

Either way, it’s very likely that Austin and Natalie’s paths crossed for professional reasons, not romantic ones.

Still, the situation is sparking a lot of conversation.

And it seems that a surprising number of Swifties didn’t even know she had a brother!

Austin generally lives a low-key life

“Taylor has a brother? I must have been living under a rock,” one Reddit user remarked, according to Hello! magazine.

“Didn’t even know she had a brother until now,” another said.

“Same, I had to do a double take,” a third chimed in.

It’s not like Taylor keeps Austin a secret, but he generally seems to avoid the spotlight.

Of course, it’ll be that much harder to maintain his privacy if he starts dating Natalie!

Brock Davies is coming clear about his dirty past.

In her new memoir, My Good Side, Scheana Shay writes that her husband didn’t just cheat on her about four years ago — he cheated on her while she was pregnant with the couple’s daughter!

YIKES, huh?

“As I sat there, feeling completely sick to my stomach, he admitted that — at the time — he was scared about being a father again, specifically about whether he even deserved to be, and he chose to deal with it by sleeping with someone else,” Shay says to readers in the book.

Now, on the latest episode of his wife’s podcast, Davies has come out and confirmed this exact telling.

“I just didn’t know how to handle [becoming a dad again]. I didn’t know how to handle that at all. Inherently, I always deflected to the worst version of myself,” Davies explained on ai. “I was scared of being a parent again. I believed what I read. I believed I was a bad dad.”

Shay suggested that Davies was “self-sabotaging” amid his estrangement from his older kids, Winter and Eli, whom he shares with his ex-wife.

“That in itself was just an example of me just deflecting and being that version of myself, right?” Davies responded.

“It wasn’t until years later that I actually thought about that. It’s not okay to even have that as a response because that was just me — again — blaming other reasons outside of facing it up to myself. So I apologize for even saying that.”

Despite this infidelity, Lala Kent recently came out and defended Davies as a human being.

Shay — who previously told Us Weekly she would have left her husband if there was no child involved or she had learned what had happened right around when it happened, as opposed to years later — has clearly arrived at some kind of peaceful place with him, as well. The two remain together.

Davies, for his part on the podcast, said how being married to a public figure allowed him to be “held accountable” for his mistakes.

“If anything, it’s probably made me a better version of myself because it’s really forced me to hold myself to that standard of being a better person,” he continued on Friday, adding that without the accountability “I would probably be doing the same stupid things, blaming other people for the same reasons why I’m in that situation every day.”

Davies also said it was merely a “sexual affair” that lasted three weeks.

“I apologize to you, my love,” he told Shay on air.

“And for everybody else out there, you gotta back off, to be honest. I feel like there’s a lot of opinions that get thrown around and all we need to do is look in a mirror, okay? I’m a hypocrite. People are hypocrites sometimes.

“I will fight for my wife until the end of the day. So if anyone has a problem with this affair, they shouldn’t be coming and attacking her. They should be coming to me.”

Elsewhere in her memoir, Shay lists all the famous men she’s slept with. It’s an impressive list!

It’s been a big week for Travis Kelce.

First, he reported to Kansas City Chiefs training camp for what will likely be the last time. (Travis will turn 36 this season, which is certainly not old — but it’s old in NFL tight end years.)

Shortly thereafter, he made a highly memorable cameo in Netflix’s highly anticipated Happy Gilmore sequel.

But all of that pales in comparison to the news that Taylor has been spotted wearing a sizable ring in a new photo of the couple!

Yes, as we reported earlier today, Travis shared some intimate photos of himself and Taylor on his Instagram page.

In one of the pics, we can see Travis’ iPhone, which has a black-and-white photo of the happy couple as its wallpaper. And yes, in said photo, Taylor is wearing a ring on what appears to be her left hand.

But before you get too excited, we should note that she also appears to be wearing two other rings on the same hand.

And it looks as though all three of them are Travis’ Super Bowl rings.

The pic in question is the third item in the carousel above. As you zoom in, you might go through the same roller coaster of emotions that every other Swiftie experienced.

Now, it’s entirely possible that Travis and Taylor are engaged. But if that’s the case, they’re keeping it under wraps for now.

“Had some adventures this offseason, kept it [100 emoji],” Travis captioned the photo above.

He wasn’t lying. In fact, one of his off-season adventures involved stripping down and getting slathered in honey by Bad Bunny — for a movie, of course.

Travis makes an impression with semi-nude ‘Happy Gilmore 2’ cameo

Yes, if you’re one of the few remaining Swifties who has yet to check out Travis’ work in the new Adam Sandler comedy, you should know that Tay would like you to fix that ASAP.

The queen of pop doesn’t post to social media very often, but today she sent a clear message to her 280 Instagram followers.

“Happy Gilmore 2 had me cackling and cheering the whole movie. An absolute must watch,” Taylor wrote in a Story post, along with the film’s poster. “13/10, go watch it on @netflix as soon as humanly possible.”

She added a honey pot emoji in case there were any doubts as to her favorite scene.

For the most part Happy 2 is almost exactly what you’d expect. But it does some points for originality, as we doubt anyone expected to see Travis devoured by a bear while slathered in honey.

It might not have been the off-season surprise Swifties were hoping for, but it’ll have to do for now!
