White Lotus

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s one proud papa -- not only is he hyping son Patrick’s full-frontal TV moments, but he’s also giving a nod to his past romantic choices ... even that blink-and-you-missed-it fling with Miley Cyrus.

The actor hit 'Watch What Happens Live' Monday night with Andy Cohen, and got grilled on the highs and lows of Patrick dating Miley from 2014 to 2015, and honestly ... he had nothing but kind words.

Arnie called Miley a wonderful, talented girl and even reminisced about the time she tagged along on a family ski trip and totally charmed everyone as the ultimate guest.

Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood are putting their feud rumors to rest ... addressing it all in a wide-ranging interview -- and making a social media gesture to convince fans.

The "White Lotus" costars sat down for an interview with Variety ... and, they say there are no issues between them, and the internet simply made a big to-do about innocuous social media activity.

For example, lots of fans thought Goggins was laughing at the depiction of ALW in a "Saturday Night Live" parody she found particularly hurtful when he posted about it on social media ... but, he says that's not the case.

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s all for his son Patrick following in his footsteps -- but he didn't expect him to be doing it quite so closely ... until he saw the rising star butt-naked and hangin' proud in "The White Lotus."

The father-son duo were chatting for Variety’s 'Actors on Actors' when Arnold brought up his full-frontal 'Terminator' days -- and Patrick quickly reminded him he'd followed suit. That's when Arnold blurted out that he couldn't believe his son whipped out his "weenie" on camera. Yep, his word, not ours!

Arnold said he was watching the HBO series when Patrick’s bare butt popped up on screen -- but it was the full-frontal reveal that really floored him, and had him thinking, "What is going on here? This is crazy."

"The White Lotus" mastermind Mike White might just outwit and outlast everyone on the milestone 50th season of "Survivor" -- at least according to former contestant Alec Merlino, who says Mike’s got the brains, and the game, to take it all!

Merlino -- who played alongside Mike in S37 before landing a role as hotel staffer Hutch on the HBO hit show -- says it actually took him a minute to clock just how sharp Mike’s gameplay was, 'cause his secret weapon first time around was all about letting everyone underestimate him.

Catch the clip -- Alec dives deeper into it, saying now that Mike’s a full-blown star, he’s got a new kind of edge.

Walton Goggins drew no attention to the ongoing rumors he's feuding with his "White Lotus" costar Aimee Lou Wood during his hosting duties on "Saturday Night Live" this weekend.

In his opening monologue, Goggins refrained from directly addressing the speculation saying ... "Most of you probably know me from ‘The White Lotus.’ No spoilers, but I die."

He went on to humorously reference his character's fate and unexpected rise to sex symbol status in the HBO series. "Some of my friends have even asked me, ‘What does it feel like to become a sex symbol at 53 years old?’ And you know what, if I’m being honest, it feels fantastic."

Sydney Sweeney continues to embrace her single status with a lively weekend in Las Vegas, attending the grand opening of a new club with Machine Gun Kelly and Patrick Schwarzenegger.

The blonde beauty shared moments on her Instagram from the opening of Palm Tree Beach Club at the MGM Grand Hotel, posting a photo with MGK and Schwarzenegger, and a video showing her letting her hair down, dancing and enjoying the party with high spirits.

Syd and MGK go a while back ... as far as 2021 when they starred together in the film, "Downfalls High," which MGK directed.

Walton Goggins isn't scheduled to host "Saturday Night Live" until next week ... but, he's getting some facetime with one of the show's stars -- who got a deep inhale of his bikini undies onstage.

The actor attended Cultured Magazine's The Cult 100 in New York City Thursday night, where he was honored as one of 100 stars who are "actively shaping and changing our culture in real time" ... and, Chloe Fineman of 'SNL' fame paid him humorous tribute onstage.

Of course, Fineman brought her comedic flair to the event ... wearing an elegant white dress -- and stripping off a yellow Speedo from underneath her dress while walking up to the stage.

Walton Goggins isn't doing much to dispel ongoing gossip about a feud with his 'White Lotus' costar Aimee Lou Wood ... he just shut down an interview when asked about the reality of the rumored rift.

In a sit-down interview, Goggins was asked directly about the state of his real-life relationship with Wood following rumors of on-set strife during filming of "The White Lotus" ... and WG responded, "I'm not going to have that conversation."

In a Times of London newspaper interview published Thursday, the interviewer tried to broach the subject several times, but was denied by the actor, and the two publicists who were present.

Walton Goggins is hosting "Saturday Night Live" next month ... and, while some have perceived it as a slight at his "The White Lotus" costar Aimee Lou Wood, TMZ has learned that's just not the case.

Here's the deal ... speculation Goggins and his onscreen GF Wood are feuding after their time on 'White Lotus' has circulated for a few weeks now -- fueled by the two not following each other on IG and a comment Goggins dropped on the recent 'SNL' clip which made fun of, in part, Wood's teeth.

While some reports saw him taking the hosting gig as another shot at her, sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... conversations between Goggins and 'SNL' began long before his name was announced -- starting well before the jokes at Wood's expense.

Walton Goggins’ "White Lotus" character may have been a bit mysterious, but he’s not holding anything back here -- literally -- 'cause the actor went all in, stripping down to his Speedos!

It’d be a crime not to see these pics ... Walton's confidently flaunting his righteous gemstones in a skimpy yellow banana-hammock, striking poses on a yacht -- talk about a nautical shoot with a whole lot of naughty.

It was for Cultured magazine’s cover shoot, so you know there was some serious styling going on -- Walton rocked cowboy boots in one shot and a half-buttoned corduroy shirt in another!

"The White Lotus" star Aimee Lou Wood says she's "had apologies from 'SNL'" for a skit making fun of her teeth -- but we've learned the sketch comedy show has done no such thing, although the staff was very fond of her on set.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... "Saturday Night Live" did not reach out to Aimee with a formal apology.

We're told Aimee may have spoken to someone she knows on the show and they may have apologized, but no such apology came down from 'SNL' in any official or formal capacity.

"The White Lotus" star Aimee Lou Wood looks like she's still bothered by a 'SNL' skit making fun of her teeth ... because she was an emotional wreck in public.

Ya gotta see these photos and video of Aimee ... she was practically in tears Monday in London, the day after ripping the 'SNL' skit as "mean and unfunny."

Aimee's 'White Lotus' character is relentlessly mocked on the 'SNL' parody ... there are massive fake teeth and a bad British accent ... and it looks like she's still upset with her portrayal.

Aimee Lou Wood gets satire ... but, a recent joke about her on "Saturday Night Live" clearly stung -- 'cause she called the parody of her straight-up mean.

The actress weighed in on the long-running comedy show's parody of "The White Lotus," called "The White POTUS" ... a political skewering of the popular HBO show, the third season of which just aired.

ICYMI ... different political figures are depicted -- including Jon Hamm playing Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., shown to be dating a character based on Wood.

"Saturday Night Live" spoofed the "White Lotus" after an absolutely shocking season finale -- but with a Donald Trump "White Potus" twist as his unclear tariff rollout even has some of his supporters skeptical.

The pre-taped sketch on last night's 'SNL' starts off with Chloe Fineman portraying Melania Trump, but with a southern accent that mirrors Parker Posey's "White Lotus" character, Victoria Ratliff.

The sketch has Melania trying to get her husband's attention, who seems to be off in another world as she gets ready for dinner. James Austin Johnson's Trump takes the spot of Jason Isaacs’ Timothy Ratliff -- whose family is plagued with financial woes throughout  "White Lotus" Season 3.

11:20 AM PT -- Patrick Schwarzenegger shared his view from Lisa's killer set last night ... posting on his Instagram that his wild moved in the pit had a lot to do with the cocktail he drank.

BTW, we're gonna assume the cocktail didn't have any poisonous fruit in it. 👀

It's highly unlikely the next season of "The White Lotus" will take place at Coachella ... but we kinda got a glimpse of what they could look like Friday night at the music fest!

Patrick Schwarzenegger and his fiancé, Abby Champion, were spotted rocking out in the front row of his costar Lisa's set ... and it was clear he was having a blast.

PS and Lisa -- who, in addition to being an actress, is a member of the K-pop group Blackpink -- were in this season of HBO series ... which just had its shocking conclusion last weekend!
