Cynthia Nixon on Miranda's new ‘wonderful' And Just Like That romance
Cynthia Nixon, who portrays Miranda in And Just Like That, has shared her thoughts on her character's new love interest, Joy (Dolly Wells), in the third season.
Miranda, now a single queer woman in New York, grows closer to Joy, a BBC producer, following an accidental on-air profanity.
Nixon stated that Joy serves as an antidote to Miranda's tendency to catastrophise, similar to her ex-husband Steve Brady, but in a distinct manner.
The actor mentioned that Season 3 provided a 'breather' for Miranda's storyline after the intense experiences of coming out and heartbreak in the first two seasons.
The Independent 's review of Season 3 gave it three stars, noting the writing was 'clunky' but suggesting the series is beginning to find its rhythm for dedicated fans.

Post-Ozempic Lizzo leaves fans baffled with bizarre first pitch at Dodgers game
American singer and rapper Lizzo was on hand with an unusual first pitch before the Los Angeles Dodgers' game against the San Diego Padres on Thursday night. After being invited to take part in the traditional pregame ceremony at Dodger Stadium, Lizzo left fans baffled with her bizarre approach to pitching in LA. She first took her place on the mound as Dodgers star Mookie Betts waited in preparation to take the catch, only to run forward in her huge white high heels while pretending to throw the ball twice. The 37-year-old, who recently admitted to briefly using Ozempic to aid in her extreme weight loss transformation, then turned around and ran back to the mound, before finally producing a respectable pitch into Betts which bounced before finding his glove. A number of fans were left confused by her two fake throws, with one writing on X: 'The longest, [most] pointless and stupidest first pitch ever'. Another commented: 'So stupid. Stop trying to make it about you'. While a third simply asked: 'What the f**k Is this?' Lizzo just threw out a very interesting first pitch at Dodger Stadium 🤣 — Dodgers Nation (@DodgersNation) June 20, 2025 Others, however, saw the funny side of Lizzo's twist on pitching. 'Love it,' one fan commented. Another joked about the Dodgers: 'We need her to start'. 'Still better than 50 cent,' a third said while referencing the rapper's infamous first pitch at a 2014 New York Mets game, widely considered one of the worst of all time. Lizzo, who has confidently showed off her slimmer frame on social media of late, opened up about her Ozempic experiment during Thursday's episode of Trisha Paytas' Just Trish podcast. The Grammy winner explained that she started to take the GLP-1 medication at the beginning of her weight loss journey in 2023, but soon came to the conclusion that it wouldn't help her in the long term. 'I tried everything. Ozempic works because you eat less food, yeah? So if you eat right, it makes you feel full.' Lizzo then added, 'But if you can just do that on your own and get mind over matter, it's the same thing.'

Livvy Dunne leaves fans stunned with shocking sexual reference about herself and Madelyn Cline
Livvy Dunne sent social media into a spin on Friday after she appeared to make a steamy sexual reference about herself and actress Madelyn Cline. While the LSU icon regularly poses in her bikini, she is relatively clean-cut when it comes to her interactions with fans... until now, that is. The interaction began when an X user described the upcoming College World Series between LSU and Coastal Carolina as the 'Madelyn Cline vs Livvy Dunne Bowl', given the pair's previous education at the rival schools. The fairly innocent comment was then taken deep into left-field by Dunne, who surprisingly replied: 'Gooner World Series'. Fans were immediately left stunned by the apparent sexual reference posted by the gymnastics icon, with one writing: 'This can't be real.' Dunne's post quickly went viral and many asked whether the LSU icon had been hacked Another added, 'had to check three times that this wasn't a parody account,' while a third noted: 'She get hacked???' 'Gooner' appears to be a reference to a form of masturbation in which the person nears climax, before stopping. Therefore, it is perhaps surprising that Dunne made such a reference to her 186,000 followers on X. Cline, meanwhile, is an actress and model most famous for her role in the Netflix series Outer Banks. She is from South Carolina and attended Coastal Carolina University briefly, before dropping out and moving to LA to pursue her acting career. Others thought they had inadvertently clicked on a parody account after seeing the tweet Cline poses for photos at the premiere of the most recent season of Netflix hit Outer Banks Dunne is most famous for her time as a gymnast at LSU, where she met her current boyfriend, now Pittsburgh Pirates star Paul Skenes. She has become a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit star in recent years too, regularly posing for the magazine in various locations around the world, and even recently making her runway debut. It was at that Miami Beach appearance on May 31 that she stunned fans by performing the splits in her bikini.
