Local Boy John Krasinski Reveals the Role He Lost to Another MA Guy

John Krasinski was hanging out with Ellen on her show yesterday and he shared a pretty big secret with her and seeing that he's a Massachusetts guy, I thought I'd share it with everyone. John was asked about his experience auditioning for a pretty big role which ended up going to one of his good friends, a guy also from Massachusetts.

John stars in the Amazon Prime series Jack Ryan which is in its second season. It's one of the favorite newer shows of my husband and I. It has tons of action and it's so weird watching John play a character other than Jim from The Office.

Monday, Backstreet Boys announced the new North American leg of their DNA World Tour and according to Backstreet's Howie Dorough, even if you saw them last year, this new leg will have a "different vibe." They'll be at the Xfinity Center in September and tickets for the show go on sale this Friday at 12 noon at LiveNation.com.

Janet Jackson announced on Monday morning to expect her new album Black Diamond and world tour kicking off later this year. That night, she dropped by The Tonight Show and hyped her upcoming work while reminiscing about her breakthrough album, Control. I always wondered if there was a significance behind her giant hoop and key earing that she wore. I loved it. The album Control was back during my (early, lol) teens in 1986 and featured what has become one of Janet's signature songs, "Nasty." The single was written in response to rude guys catcalling, which she and a friend were subjected while living in a Minneapolis hotel.
