- Niecy Nash-Betts joked that she holds a “grudge” against her longtime friend Colman Domingo after he wore this head-turning ensemble to officiate her wedding
- Niecy married wife Jessica Betts in 2020
- Niecy and Colman costarred in Selma in 2014
Niecy Nash-Betts is still holding this grudge against longtime friend Colman Domingo.
Niecy, 55, wed her wife Jessica Betts in 2020, with Domingo, also 55, serving as the officiant. During the Tuesday, June 24, episode of Today With Jenna & Friends, the actress reflected on her wedding day – and the vibrant yellow ensemble Domingo wore to officiate.
“I married the greatest love of my life in my backyard with 24 people, and guess who my officiant was?” Betts asked Jenna Bush Hager. “None other than the Colman Domingo.”
A photo of the couple’s intimate summer backyard ceremony was then featured onscreen with the Sing Sing star standing behind them at the altar.
“There’s Colman!” she pointed out. “Now, I have a grudge against him, because I don’t know what he’s wearing. And I never forgave him for that. I’m like, it’s a wedding!”

Hager, 43, then requested that the Today team zoom in to the photo so that she could get a proper look at Domingo’s outfit, which was comprised of an abstract black and yellow suit, a checkered top, and white sneakers.

“He just looked like a beautiful bumblebee, but I said not for… you’re my officiant!” Betts said. “You don’t got black slacks laying around? It just made me so upset.”
Domingo is known for his daring fashion choices, and he recently served as a co-chair at the 2025 Met Gala, for which the theme was Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.
Before her marriage to wife Jessica, Niecy was previously married to Don Nash from 1994 to 2007 and Jay Tucker from 2011 to 2020. She revealed on Today that her now-wife is her “soulmate.”
“See the first two times I was married, I was married to men and now I’m married to a woman,” Betts explained. “And I don’t think it’s about the gender that makes it special. It’s just… I met my soulmate, you know what I mean? I met my soulmate. I wasn’t living a sexually repressed life where I’m like, ‘Oh my God, I really want to be married to a woman!’ No. I just met the most beautiful soul.”
Niecy then reflected on her role in the LGBTQ+ community. “I was adjacent. I was an ally, but now I’m a card-carrying member,” Betts said.

The Grotesquerie star then joked, “And here’s the problem with it: I didn’t get a package. I didn’t get a manual. I didn’t get a toaster, a gift. My friends — I have friends in the community! I thought there was gonna be a parade outside of my house. I got nothing, guys! Nothing! But now I’m in all the Pride parades.”
Nash and Domingo co-starred in the 2014 historical drama film Selma, which told the story of the 1965 Selma to Montgomery voting rights marches in Alabama that were led by Martin Luther King Jr. John Lewis, and more civil rights leaders.

Jennifer Lopez busts a move in lace-up jeans from 2001 ‘Ain’t It Funny’ music video

Jennifer Lopez is giving us nostalgia served hot!
The pop star, 56, slipped into the exact same jeans she wore in her 2001 “Ain’t It Funny” music video to re-create an “Off Campus” scene with actress Mika Abdalla.
For the cheeky clip — which Lopez posted on social media — she paired the ultra-low-slung lace-up denim with a white cropped turtleneck that made the most of her impressive abs.
“It’s a new Jeneration of party people…🎶,” she captioned the video, giving a nod to lyrics from her 2011 collaboration with Pitbull, “On the Floor.”
One observant X user commented on the singer’s “INSANE” pants and shared a snippet from the “Ain’t It Funny” video.
Lopez confirmed the fan’s suspicions by replying, “They’re the same ones from that video 😀.”
As for Abdalla, she went with her own throwback-inspired look by pairing a brown backless halter top with baggy jeans and a vintage belt.
The clip began with the 26-year-old standing outside Lopez’s dance studio while mouthing her “Off Campus” co-star Khobe Clarke’s line, “I don’t know her personally, but I’m pretty sure that’s J.Lo.”
Abdalla then made her way inside to find the Grammy nominee rehearsing with her crew.
Lopez turned around and mouthed back, “Oh, my God. Wait. This is me! Now!” which Abdalla’s character, Allie Hayes, squealed in a now-viral scene from Prime Video’s new romantic drama series — while wearing a replica of J.Lo’s iconic 2000 Grammys Versace jungle dress.
“Love this shooooww,” the songstress — who gave the plunging gown a second lap while closing Versace’s spring 2020 runway show in Milan — gushed alongside a clip of the aforementioned scene.
Meanwhile, Abdalla recently described just how much work went into creating the “unreal” garment, telling Betches UK that “five fittings” were involved.

‘Euphoria’ kills off Jacob Elordi’s Nate Jacobs

He’s not feeling euphoric.
Warning: Spoilers ahead! Do not proceed unless you’ve watched “Euphoria’s” seventh episode of Season 3.
“Euphoria” catapulted Jacob Elordi, Sydney Sweeney and Zendaya into their current status as A-listers, and now, one has been axed from the show.
Season 3 killed Elordi’s controversial character, Nate Jacobs.
He was buried alive in a coffin, with a pipe leading to the surface so that he could breathe. A rattlesnake slithered down the pipe and bit him.
He had been placed there by Naz (Jack Topalian), the gangster he owes about a million dollars to.
Naz’s plan was to leave Nate down there (with a pipe to breathe) for 72 hours while his wife, Cassie (Sweeney) could get the money together.
Unfortunately for Nate, before 72 hours was up, a snake got him. Naz also didn’t make it out alive, as he was fatally shot by Season 3’s other gangster, Alamo (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje). Cassie and Maddy (Alexa Demie) scrambled to get the money together as Nate got dug up, but they got a nasty surprise, as they were met with his dead body.
In the “inside the episode” segment at the end, Elordi said in his post-mortem interview, “It was a cool way to go, Nate is somebody who’s made so many mistakes and so many dark choices.”
First premiering in 2019, the Sam Levinson-created drama initially followed its characters in high school. Elordi, Zendaya and Sweeney were lesser known at the time.
“Euphoria changed my life,” Elordi, 28, told Variety in 2023.
“Saltburn” was the Australian star’s big-screen breakout that same year. Per Vogue Australia, his “Wuthering Heights” co-star Margot Robbie (who produced “Saltburn”) suggested him for the role at the time after watching him in “Euphoria.”
The “Frankenstein” star told GQ UK in 2023 that before landing on the HBO show, “I wasn’t booking jobs. I think I had – I don’t know, $400 or $800 left in my bank account – and ‘Euphoria’ was my last audition before I went home for a little while to make some money and recuperate.”
In the first two seasons, Nate was the show’s villain. He was a high school jock with anger issues – he manipulated, threatened and blackmailed everyone around him, choked his then-girlfriend, Maddy (Alexa Demi), and struck up a relationship with her best friend, Cassie (Sweeney).
Nate’s issues stemmed from finding his father Cal’s (Eric Dane) sex tapes at a young age.
In Season 3, which is set five years after high school, Nate had a dramatically different personality.
His rage issues inexplicably seemed vanished, his demeanor was softer and nicer and he appeared to genuinely love Cassie (instead of using her, like he was in Season 2).
Instead of being menacing, he did a goofy dance at his wedding. After he didn’t get his way in front of a board of bureucrats, rather than blackmail or threaten them, he just pathetically cried and begged.
Outraged fans criticized “Euphoria” for Nate’s inexplicable personality change and slammed it for giving the character a “lobotomy.”
Season 3 saw Nate take over his dad’s construction business, but he ran into issues when he had to stop his build because of an endangered flower – the white fritillary.
The show also revealed that he conned people into giving him money for his construction projects, including the gangster Naz.
In the third episode of Season 3, when Nate didn’t pay Naz the half a million dollars he owed him, Naz interrupted Nate and Cassie’s wedding and had him brutally beaten on his wedding night. It all culminated in Naz cutting off Nate’s toe. However, Nate later got it sewn back on.
Topalian exclusively told Page Six that Elordi did most of his own stunts during the scene where Naz’s henchmen threw Nate around.
“That’s [Elordi] really doing the struggling and the fighting and the falling and all of that,” he told us.
He called Elordi “committed,” “giving,” and “prepared,” but “between scenes, he’s back to being Jacob.”
“Obviously, he gets back into character really quickly,” he went on. “But once [the director calls ‘cut’] even though he’s been beaten and abused, he’s still having a lot of fun. He’s still cracking jokes and doing things like that.”
Elordi told Entertainment Weekly in November that his acting process was different in Season 3. He noted that he likes to “obsess over” his work, and take the time to prepare by going through “every element and construct it and put it together.”
The booked and busy actor – who was in “Frankenstein” and “Wuthering Heights” back to back – noted that he had “no time” to prepare for Season 3.
“And I didn’t have scripts in any kind of full sense. I sort of just had creative conversations with Sam, so I had no choice.”
The “Priscilla” actor also noted that he “loves” Nate, even though most fans hate him.
“I act to understand a different experience, to express an experience that’s different to my own,” said Elordi. “Playing him taught me a lot about empathy and patience, which is strange with a character like that.”
Elordi also told the outlet that Nate’s dark deeds didn’t bother him.
“It’s a real treat to be a part of that show, and to play the quote-unquote bad guy,” he said. “It’s always more fun. You don’t wanna play some morally superior, world-saving loser.”

Robert De Niro had no idea ‘Taxi Driver’ would become a classic

You talkin’ to him?
Robert De Niro had no idea his 1976 film “Taxi Driver” would be lauded as a classic.
“You never can think that you’re doing something that’s going to have an impact,” the actor, 82, exclusively explained to Page Six in a recent interview alongside his fellow Tribeca Festival co-founder Jane Rosenthal to promote next month’s event.
The Oscar winner “just never look[s] at it that way,” he adding, noting that success is “out of your control.”
The neo-noir drama, directed by Martin Scorsese, stars De Niro as an unhinged taxi driver named Travis Bickle, whose mental state deteriorates over the course of the movie.
De Niro acted in the iconic role alongside Jodie Foster, Cybill Shepherd, Harvey Keitel, Peter Boyle, and Albert Brooks.
The project generated controversy at the time for graphic violence and 12-year-old Foster’s casting as a child sex worker — and, later, for inspiring John Hinckley Jr.’s attempted assassination of President Ronald Reagan.
Nevertheless, it is considered one of the greatest movies ever made and, in 1994, was designated as “culturally, historically or aesthetically” significant by the U.S. Library of Congress when selected for preservation in the National Film Registry.
The movie, which turned 50 this year, is being screened at the June film festival — and De Niro and Scorsese, 83, will reunite for a conversation about the project.
Their sitdown is just one of many special talks and screenings taking place at this year’s 25th Tribeca Festival.
Not only are interviews with Madonna, Sean Penn and Josh Safdie also scheduled, but there will be special anniversary screenings of “Cable Guy” and “Bridget Jones’s Diary.”
“There are so many great things to see,” Rosenthal told us. “There’s so much music, everybody from Earth, Wind and Fire and Madonna to Noga Erez and Sarah Bareilles and Peter Frampton.
“There’s just a lot to see,” the 69-year-old continued, stressing that the festival is “a welcome festival for all New Yorkers [with] tickets available” now.
The annual event, which runs from June 3 through June 14, was established in 2002 to spur the revitalization of Lower Manhattan following the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center.
