Olivia Wilde says the narrative that Gen Z didn’t want to go to movie theaters was conjured “for profit” and has proven to be “obviously bullshit”:
“They are the ones driving the box office right now. They are driving this enthusiasm for authorship in filmmaking. They love ‘Backrooms’ and ‘Obsession.’ They’re here for it. They want people to take risks in movies because they appreciate that risk. The audience has never been the problem, and I think now we’re seeing studios recognize that.”

Coco Gauff was asked about the state of America 1 year into the 2nd Trump Administration
“I hope forward that we can have a lot more peace in our country and more kindness in the way we speak to each other about different topics & things like that. Obviously I’ve been pretty vocal about how I felt. At this point, I feel a bit fatigued talking about it just because of the fact that it is hard being a black woman in this country and having to experience things, even online, and seeing marginalized communities being affected.. and knowing that I can only donate and speak out. I try my best to do that. But I hope that as time continues that we can reach a state that we’re not currently in, and we keep moving forward.”

Iga Swiatek was asked about Aryna Sabalenka and Nick Kyrgios’ Battle of the Sexes match
“Iga, did you see the Kyrgios and Sabalenka match and if you had any thoughts on it?”
Iga: “No, I haven't watched, because I don't watch stuff like that.
I think for sure it attracted, like, a lot of attention. It was an entertainment, but I wouldn't say that had anything to do with, like, social change or any important topics.
I think the name was just the same as the one from the Billie Jean King match in '73. That's it. There were no more similarities because I feel like women's tennis stands on its own right now. We have so many great athletes and great stories to present, we don't necessarily need to, like, compare to men's tennis. It's a totally different story.
I think, honestly, yeah, there doesn't need to be any competition. I think actually events like this one, United Cup, brings tennis all together, and WTA fans and ATP fans can watch this event with so much excitement.
Seeing also singles players that usually don't have space to play mixed doubles together, playing these kind of matches, I think this is actually what makes our sport much more interesting and better.
So yeah, I haven't watched the match. I only know about how it looked like. But I think, yeah, it was for sure nice entertainment and an XO match between these two.”
