Drew Barrymore is here to stay… at least for a couple more seasons.

While daytime TV will soon be mourning the loss of* The Kelly Clarkson Show* and Sherri Shepherd's *Sherri*, CBS is providing a positive update for all the Barrymore diehards. The actress' eponymous talk show has been renewed for two seasons, which will take *The Drew Barrymore Show** *through its eighth season in 2027-2028.

Amid a challenging time for both daytime and late-night talk shows, Barrymore's series has just enjoyed its most-watched season to date, averaging 1.6 million daily viewers.

Barrymore celebrated the renewal news in a statement provided to **. "What matters most to us is our viewers and the people that come here," she said. "This show began as a space for intimate conversation, and we're continuing to plant our flag as a truly multi-platform experience. We live in a world where people discover content in so many different ways, and from the very start in 2020, our mission was to break the mold rather than conform to the traditional daytime landscape."

Barrymore continued, "I hold myself accountable to staying savvy about how and where this show is seen — feeding every corner that counts, while daring to just be myself and figure out life with others. My curiosity about people is what fuels me. I'm so excited to continue as I see this endeavor as an opportunity and a gift."

Last month, Kelly Clarkson revealed that she'd decided to end *The Kelly Clarkson Show* after seven seasons. She will continue to host through the fall. The announcement came months after the death of her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock, the father of her children Remy and River Rose. Blackstock's death led Clarkson to postpone several of her Las Vegas residency dates in order to "be fully present" for their children.

The "Since U Been Gone" singer thanked her colleagues and fans of the series, explaining that her departure "was not an easy decision" and adding that it would give her time "to prioritize my kids, which feels necessary and right for this next chapter of our lives."

Hours later came the announcement that Shepherd's talk show had been canceled after four seasons. Shepherd spoke to audiences about the cancellation Feb. 9, after having briefly stepped away during a bout with COVID-19.

"I want to thank you for laughing and crying with us," Shepherd said. "Thank you for supporting my unhealthy obsession with Lenny Kravitz. But I've got to tell you, when I first started, this show was built on one thing, and what I wanted it built on was joy. The intention of this show, always, was my prayer for you to leave happier than when you came. And you know this, I talked about this. It has been my dream to have a talk show, and I'm so grateful I had the chance to do it for four seasons."

Like Clarkson, Shepherd will continue to host through the fall. As for other daytime programming, Jennifer Hudson's talk show has been renewed for a fifth season and no decision has been announced about *The Tamron Hall Show*, which debuted in 2019.

Jennifer Lopez is opening up about her divorce from Marc Anthony.

During the Friday, March 6 show at her Up All Night Las Vegas residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, the "On the Floor" singer told the audience "a little story" about the aftermath of her and Anthony's breakup.

"After my third divorce, that's when I really started getting good at it," Lopez joked at first, per a video shared on Instagram.

"It was actually a really tough time," she said. "I was really about to give up on it all. I mean, I was a single mom, with two 3-year-old twins." She and Anthony share twins Emme and Max.

Lopez, wearing a shimmery magenta gown with matching gloves and boa, said she called one of her mentors, the late self-help author Louise Hay, during this difficult period.

"She said to me, 'Jennifer, you're a dancer, right?'" Lopez said from the stage. "I said, 'Yes, I am.' And she said, 'When you're learning a dance and you get the steps wrong, what do you do?' I said, 'I just keep going until I get the steps right.' And she said, 'That's right Jennifer. Always keep dancing.'"

Lopez then addressed The Colosseum audience. "And I wish the same for each and every one of you — that no matter what life throws at you, that you dance, and you dance, and you dance, again, again and again."

"I love you so much!" she concluded.

Paul McCartney Stuns Beatles Fans After Revealing Yoko Ono's Claim About John Lennon's Sexuality

Paul McCartney has sparked outrage among Beatles fans after resurfacing a controversial claim once made by Yoko Ono about her husband John Lennon's sexuality.

The unexpected revelation quickly ignited heated reactions online, with many fans questioning why the topic was brought up decades after Lennon's tragic passing and accusing McCartney of speaking about a former bandmate who is no longer here to respond.

One furious commenter wrote, "Paul McCartney is such a creep. Only a nasty, evil man would sell out his past band-mate who is not around to defend himself."

Paul McCartney first made the controversial claims in a 2015 interview with Vanity Fair, which has recently resurfaced

The Beatles' founder, co-lead vocalist, and rhythm guitarist John Lennon had three reportedly high-profile relationships during his lifetime.

He was married twice, first to Cynthia Powell from 1962 to 1968 and then to Yoko Ono from 1969 until his demise in 1980.

During a high-profile 18-month separation from Ono, Lennon reportedly lived and worked in Los Angeles and New York with his personal assistant, May Pang.

The two had a romantic relationship for 18 months before he eventually reconciled with Ono in early 1975.

During an interview with Vanity Fair, originally conducted in 2015 and republished last month on February 27 to coincide with the release of the documentary Man on the Run, Lennon's former bandmate Paul McCartney revealed doubts that the now 93-year-old Ono once had about her late husband's sexual orientation.

Image credits: Mirror Syndication International/Mirrorpix via Getty Images

He told the outlet about an incident from 1980, shortly after Lennon was fatally sh*t by an obsessed fan, Mark David Chapman, when Ono reportedly called him and said she believed her husband "might have been gay."

He recalled, "She rang me not long after John d**d and said, 'You know, I think John might have been gay.'"

John Lennon's second wife, Yoko Ono, reportedly voiced her doubts about her late husband's sexuality to McCartney following Lennon's passing

However, the 83-year-old musician expressed skepticism about Ono's claim, citing his long personal and professional history with Lennon.

McCartney added, "I went, 'I'm not sure.' I said, 'I don't think so. Certainly not when I knew him'… because we'd been in the '60s. We'd been around with loads and loads of girls. And I bumped into seeing him jacking … a lot of girl action."

Moreover, Paul claimed that despite often sharing beds while touring, there was "never a gesture, never an expression" that suggested Lennon was attracted to men.

"There was never anything… It was nothing. So I had no reason to believe this at all."

McCartney also suggested Ono's comment may have been a product of the intense emotional distress following Lennon's passing, noting that he himself said "crazy things" after losing his first wife, Linda McCartney, who passed away in 1998.

"When I lost Linda, I said some pretty crazy things. I look back on them now and go, That's grief. That's just what you do."

The Here Comes The Sun singer also addressed the long-running speculation surrounding a 1963 trip Lennon took to Spain with the Beatles' manager, Brian Epstein, who was openly gay, which had fueled rumors at the time.

But Paul dismissed the trip as a "power play" on Lennon's part, saying, "Brian would ask him as a homosexual thing – a good-looking boy who Brian fancied. They went down to Spain, had a fun time. No doubt John would play into the thing."

The claims were further fueled by long-standing rumors surrounding the relationship between John and the band's former gay manager

"I personally didn't think anything had happened. Certainly never heard about anything happening. But I saw it as, 'You want to deal with the Beatles? I'm the leader.'"

The comments did not sit well with fans of the music legend, many of whom harshly criticized both Yoko and Paul over what they perceived as the "questionable timing" of the claims.

One person said, "Right, when the man can't defend himself… Who cares John Lennon was awesome fabulous songwriter singer it's no one's business let John rest in peace."

Another added, "Even if he was ono shouldn't be sharing that," while a third user in agreement commented, "Sorry but even if John was gay, why should it make any difference to the man he was and still remembered as?"

One netizen bluntly wrote online, "That's just gossip. It's a shame that McCartney is spreading it. I'm sure there are rumors about him too regarding this or that."

Others questioned, "He's been d**d for 46 years, and suddenly this is a story? Unless they've uncovered some lost Beatles' recordings, I really don't care what he did in his off time."

"I wouldn't believe a word Yoko Ono says…"

However, some fans speculated that the Imagine singer might have been bisexual instead.

One user expressed, "He might have been bi… It was the 50's, 60's and 70's so people experimented se*xually…"

While Paul denied the speculation, netizens criticized him, with many questioning his "motive" and "timing" for bringing up the resurfaced claims

Image credits: Ethan Miller/Getty Images

Others echoed the sentiment, with one adding, "Very possible that he was bisexual…"

The bisexual speculation had also surfaced in a 2015 interview with The Daily Beast, where Ono stated that she and John believed everyone was naturally bisexual, but that Lennon was likely "too inhibited" to ever act on any desires he might have had for men.

She shared with the publication, "John and I had a big talk about it, saying, basically, all of us must be bisexual. And we were sort of in a situation of thinking that we're not [bisexual] because of society. So we are hiding the other side of ourselves, which is less acceptable."

As for the musical partnership between Lennon and McCartney, it is widely considered one of the most successful and influential in music history.

The documentary Man on the Run focuses on Paul's life and career between the breakup of the Beatles in 1970 and Lennon's demise in 1980.

The film concludes in the early 1980s, exploring how Lennon's demise devastated McCartney and ultimately contributed to the end of the band Wings, which he had formed with his wife Linda.

"Who cares, his music was incredible and is what defines him," wrote one fan of the English music legend

A wave of strikes on Iran hit the capital and northern areas overnight into Wednesday, while Tehran launched what it called its "most intense" operation of the war, targeting Israel and Gulf nations.

Throughout the region, a humanitarian crisis is mounting – with the UN warning of toxic black rain, mass displacement and disrupted supply chains for life-saving goods. And the death toll continues to rise.

Here's what you on day 12.

What's happening in the region?

Israeli strikes: Israel launched a wave of strikes in the Iranian capital overnight into Wednesday, with the Iranian Red Crescent saying a residential area in Tehran had been targeted. Beyond the capital, CNN staff in northern Iran also reported major nighttime air raids. Israel also said it struck targets in Beirut in Lebanon. Videos showed parts of a high-rise building engulfed in flames. Further south in Lebanon, a paramedic was killed after an Israeli strike hit a Red Cross ambulance.

Iran ramps up: Iran's military said it launched its "most intense and heaviest operation" since the start of the war overnight into Wednesday, according to state media. The attack targeted locations in Israel and US assets in the region, state media reported.

Regional attacks: Gulf states have been intercepting new waves of Iranian drones and missiles early Wednesday local time. A suspected Iranian drone also hit a US diplomatic facility in Iraq Tuesday, near the Baghdad airport, two sources told CNN. A cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz caught fire after being hit by an unknown projectile, while another vessel was damaged earlier Wednesday by a suspected projectile off the coast of the United Arab Emirates.

Toxic black rain: The World Health Organization is warning that black rain - contaminated rainfall - resulting from pollution could pose health risks after strikes in Iran. After fuel depots were hit last week, including in Tehran, thick plumes of black smoke billowed into the air, mixing with precipitation in the air to create toxic rain.

Growing death toll: Iran has accused the US and Israel of deliberately targeting civilians, with strikes killing more than 1,300 since the conflict started, according to Iran's UN ambassador. In Lebanon, Israel's strikes have killed more than 10 children every day so far, according to the UN's children's agency. Dozens more have been killed elsewhere around the region, including by Iranian strikes. Seven US service members have been killed and 140 troops wounded, the Pentagon said Tuesday.

What are the other headlines?

Mines in the Strait: The US military said it destroyed Iranian naval ships — including 16 minelayers — near the Strait of Hormuz. Sources earlier told CNN that Tehran has begun laying mines in the waterway, the world's most important energy chokepoint, through which about one-fifth of all crude oil travels.

US terms: The White House laid out demands for what an "unconditional surrender" by Iran could look like, saying it will be personally determined by President Donald Trump. This includes dismantling Iran's ballistic missile arsenal that "protects" their nuclear ambitions, it said – adding that Trump does "not rule options out" in the war, including deploying US ground troops.

School strike: The Pentagon will release its report into a strike on an Iranian girls' school that killed at least 168 children, the White House said Tuesday. The US military was likely responsible, according to CNN and expert analysis of evidence. And footage has emerged that appears to show a US missile targeting the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps naval base adjacent to the school.

Iranian women's soccer team: Seven members of the Iranian football team were granted humanitarian visas in Australia after seeking asylum, though one member changed her mind afterward and said she wanted to return home. The rest of the team left Sydney late Tuesday.
