Her house doesn’t even have walls! Think b4 you judge someone :(. On March 16, our nation’s preeminent chronicler of hypercapitalism, The Wall Street Journal, published an article estimating the net worth ofTaylor Swift’s various real-estate holdings to be worth at least $150 million. Swift has bought and sold a number of houses over the years via “a variety of trusts and limited liability companies,” and journalist Candace Taylor breaks these assets down, checking public records and estimating values of the homes that Swift currently owns.
Before we get into the top-five clips of the week, I want to highlight a weird mini trend this week in late-night television: shouting out your old improv theater. After Midnight held a Groundlings reunion with Stephanie Courtney, Jim Rash, and Nat Faxon. They had so much fun playing together and gave us all some wig tips. Paul Scheer told some stories of OG UCB on The Late Show.
Winningly goofy but blemished by behind-the-scenes tinkering, The Lost Kingdom is disappointing in the usual sequel way. The last thing a patient viewer will see before the houselights rise on Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is a giant robot tussling with monstrous tentacles — the vanity card of director James Wan’s production company, Atomic Monster. The snippet of animated kaiju mayhem is very much in the spirit of the movie it closes, a Saturday-morning cartoon of a blockbuster with a pronounced ’50s sci-fi influence, a real War of the Worlds quality.
Terence Wilson, better known as UB40 founding front man Astro, has died at 64, after a brief illness, according to Ali Campbell and Astro’s Twitter. “We are absolutely devastated and completely heartbroken to have to tell you that our beloved Astro has today passed away after a very short illness,” the statement read. “The world will never be the same without him.” Astro was one of the founding members of Birmingham’s UB40, whose American hits include “Red Red Wine” and “Can’t Help Falling in Love.
On the one hand, Nicole Byer should be a permanent late-night host. She’s fun, spontaneous, glamorous, and can have good banter with a brick wall. On the other, it would suck if Byer was stuck behind a late-night desk every night because she deserves to be freed up for more exciting projects. This internal debate will eat at you when watching Byer fill in on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

Before the two-and-a-half-hour “long” version of Lars von Trier’s Nymphomaniac: Volume I debuted yesterday at the Berlin Film Festival, we wondered what sort of material hadn’t made it into the Von Trier–approved shorter version, which screened at Sundance and has already opened in a handful of European countries. (A limited U.S. release will begin March 21.) Twenty-eight minutes of something had been cut. Obviously, some of it was going to be sexual, explicitly so.
You’ve seen Beyoncé’s “Formation” video, you’ve parsed through all the details; now, what to make of it? New York writer-at-large Rembert Browne, the Cut editors Allison Davis and Ashley Weatherford, and Vulture editor Dee Lockett unpack their thoughts on Beyoncé’s blackness, feminism, politics, and slayage.
Ashley: What a time to be black and alive! Just when I was thinking nothing could top Missy Elliott’s appearance at the Super Bowl last year, Beyoncé drops this gem, which she’ll hopefully perform during halftime.
