She's just as insufferable in real life as her character is on the show

So Noah Wyle from The Pitt.

He was on The Voice, they named Adam Levine & John Legend the sexiest men alive too for that reason.

Usually these tie in with a movie or TV release or Oscar campaign. Pedro Pascal has Behemoth coming out and he hasn't been named before. Ryan Gosling had the huge success of Project Hail Mary and he's never been picked before either.

Internationally: Tate McRae's "Housewife" debuts at No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts. The song starts as the biggest hit in the world with 55.9 million streams and 6,000 sold globally Oct. 16-22, according to Luminate. It totaled 34.9 million streams (down 1%) outside the U.S. The single, and its official video, arrived Oct. 15. Plus, McRae performed it Oct. 18 at the 2026 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. The Canadian pop singer-songwriter adds her second No. 1 on each list, and her first to debut there. "Greedy" led the Global 200 for two weeks and Global Excl. U.S. for five in 2023-24. "Housewife" heads up busy upper ranks on both charts, with Olivia Rodrigo and Chappell Roan's "Expectations" rocketing 145-2 on the Global 200 and reentering Global Excl. U.S. at No. 4 following the Oct. 15 release of its remix, and video, adding Roan. The song was originally released in June by Rodrigo-only on her album you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love. Up 339% to 45.2 million streams and 626% to 6,000 downloads sold worldwide, "Expectations" becomes Rodrigo's 15th and ninth top 10 on the respective charts. Roan pushes her totals to four and three top 10s. Also launching in the Global 200's top five, Zach Bryan's "Lies," featuring Lana Del Rey, begins at No. 5 with 27.7 million streams and 7,000 sold worldwide. Each act's second top 10 on the chart, it was released Oct. 16 on Bryan's new set, Young Manhood and Other Donatable Organs. Plus, A2O LITE achieves its first top 10 on both surveys as "Neon" vaults 107-3 on Global Excl. U.S. and debuts at No. 8 on the Global 200. The nine-member group's first single drew 25.9 million streams and sold 12,000 worldwide in the tracking week.

The media giving her unnecessary credit she doesn't deserve yet again? Yeah, that tracks.

Can't wait This was top tier:

The audacity of her of all people saying this

It was one of the first TV shows to have a regular trans character (albeit in a very 2000s way played by a cis actress, Rebecca Rominjn). It broke a lot of new ground, especially for the TV landscape 20 years ago.

That's huge! Such a deserving win for her Bodes well for the BRIT Awards next year!

Definitely more mature (pun intended) but still very her. The Mine version of Last Christmas for example is better than her OG cover and Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas sounds very right coming from her at this stage of her life

It may have been rejected from I Know Too Much but it definitely feels like a Halycon track sonically.

How did Ellie's Pray For Me stay unreleased? It's single worthy

For anyone who's curious, the rest of the Big 4 categories:

All You Want For Christmas Is Me is so good. Some funny lyrics but it all works. Love the use of sleigh bells. I'm guessing this is the single? And yes, it's 100% an original song and not a cover. I Want (A Few Small Things) is more traditional & standard. Fine if you play it from a Christmas playlist. I Guess It's Christmas is a good little midtempo ballad you'd love hear playing at night on the cold November & December streets with some hot cocoa.
