Taylor Swift's new album, The Tortured Poets Department, features several collaborators that fans might expect — Jack Antonoff, Aaron Dessner, Florence Welch, Post Malone. But one is sure to surprise them: Emma Stone. In the liner notes for the singer's new track "Florida!!! (feat. Florence + The Machine)," one Emily Jean Stone — the two-time Oscar winner's real name — is credited with "oddities." It's the only credit like that on the album.
SKEWERING: Tabloid magnet Mia Farrow is now peddling her tell-all-about-Woody book, hoping to end her cash-flow woes. Bidding on the book, handled by superagent Lynn Nesbit, is hovering at $3 million as we go to press…. SUING: There’s much talk in L.A. about the second sexual-harassment suit launched against ex-Geffen Records boss Marko Babineau. Last year, Penny Muck, an assistant, sued Babineau; the case was recently settled out of court for a reported $500,000.
At this stage of his career — let’s call it the victory-lap stage — I would love nothing more than to see Denzel Washington carve out a great action-movie franchise like Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible films and Liam Neeson’s Taken/Nonstop/Commuter vengeance-fests.

Eric Church gave fans an unexpected surprise this week — and no, it wasn’t a peek behind his signature Ray Bans — he released an album, Beyonce-style. Members of his fan club, The Church Choir, received the 10-song set in their mailboxes, while the rest of us received via the singer’s new partnership with Apple Music/iTunes. Mr. Misunderstood, a follow-up to what was Church’s most bawdy, brazen, totally out there collection yet, The Outsiders (2014), is a Heartland Rock collection that works by the sheer audacity of its creator to do whatever he damn well pleases.
Well, here’s a good way to get us to tune in: Ethan Peck, grandson of Academy Award winner Gregory Peck, has been cast in the CW pilot The Selection — a Hunger Games-like drama based on a yet-to-be-released series by Kiera Cass.

Ethan Slater's estranged wife shared her first public comments in the wake of their separation and reports of his romance with Wicked costar Ariana Grande. Lilly Jay told Page Six that Grande is "the story, really," calling her "not a girl's girl." Jay added, "My family is just collateral damage. The story is her and Dalton." She said her focus at the time is being "a good mom" to her son with Slater, whom they welcomed last year.
Treat Williams, the prolific actor of stage and screen who led the WB drama Everwood, has died. He was 71. The actor's death was confirmed to EW by his agent of 15 years, Barry McPherson. Williams was involved in a motorcycle accident. "He was killed this afternoon," McPherson told PEOPLE. "He was making a left or a right [and] a car cut him off. I'm just devastated. He was the nicest guy.
Naughty Dog first came to fame in the late-'90s developing the immensely popular Crash Bandicoot trilogy on PlayStation and the Jax and Daxter series on PS2, but it was the 2007 release of Uncharted: Drake's Fortune that cemented the studio as a blockbuster hitmaker. It was a much-needed shot of adrenaline for the fledgling PS3, and the lush graphics and impressive motion-capture work showed off what the pricey console was capable of.
