Dolly Parton and Lily Tomlin have a friendship that goes way back — all the way back to the set of the 1980 comedy 9 to 5. The movie, which featured Parton and Tomlin, along with co-star Jane Fonda, became a cult classic, with fans responding well to the obvious camaraderie between the women. Over the decades since the release of 9 to 5, Parton and Tomlin have been open about their affinity for each other, with fans remaining hopeful that they might eventually reunite for another project. Those fans very nearly got their chance in the early 2000s, when Disney planned on reuniting Parton and Tomlin, along with an all-star voice cast, for an animated film that never debuted.

The Vampire Diaries was serious drama about love and vampires. It ran for eight seasons and launched two spinoffs on The CW. But, the cast and crew kept things light on the set. Vampire Diaries bloopers abounded so it was hard to take the melodrama too seriously.

Since stepping down from his role as a working royal, Prince Harry has given interviews in which he talked about not being able to meet and speak with certain members of his family. That led many people to believe that the only way the prince could reach his family was to speak out publicly. But someone who has known Harry all his life and worked in the royal household for decades isn’t buying what the Duke of Sussex is selling.
Queen Elizabeth II’s former footman and Princess Diana’s former butler says while Harry may be able to “pull the wool over the public’s eyes,” he can’t do that to those who know how things work in the palace.
