Rita Wilson told Tom Hanks after her breast cancer diagnosis in 2015 that if she were to die, she wanted him to be “sad for a very long time.”

The actress recalled the couple’s heartfelt conversation about her health battle while speaking with Demi Moore at the Sound of a Woman: Rita Wilson in Conversation event in New York City on Tuesday.

“I said to Tom, I’m like, ‘Okay, if, if something happens and I go first, I just have two requests. And one is that you should be sad for a very, very long time,’” Wilson, 69, explained, per People.

Her second request for Hanks, 69, was to “throw me a party.”

“I want it to be a celebration of life,” Wilson remembered telling Hanks. “I want it to be about people telling stories and joy and, remembering me in that way.”

“And I think people, a lot of people want that, you know?” she added. “I think there’s room for that.”

Wilson, who has been married to Hanks since 1988, underwent a double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery after doctors found “invasive” cancer.

The “Sleepless in Seattle” star told Moore that her 2019 song “Throw Me a Party” was inspired by her and Hank’s conversation after her diagnosis.

“The song … it came out of this, this story I’ve told before, but if you haven’t heard it, it was, when you get the diagnosis and you’re like, ‘I don’t know, I don’t know what’s gonna happen, but I hope I’m still here, you know, in a few years,’” Wilson told the crowd.

After reflecting on her cancer battle, Wilson happily told the crowd, “I’m here. Yay!”

In March 2025, Wilson marked a decade since she was cancer-free with a heartfelt Instagram post.

“10 years. And I am so deeply grateful,” Wilson told her followers.

She continued, “The gratitude is overwhelming. Didn’t always feel this way. And you know that, anybody who’s going through [it, or] who’s survived knows that it’s an up and down, like, hamster wheel. But then you get to this point.”

Wilson said that while she doesn’t “talk about it much,” she posted about her cancer-free anniversary because “it’s important to celebrate good news.”

“I am thinking of anybody out there who might be going through some difficulties,” she added. “You’re in my thoughts and prayers.”

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s love story includes an NDA.

Ahead of the couple’s upcoming nuptials, TMZ reported on Saturday that guests who received a wedding invite are required to sign a ironclad non-disclosure agreement before receiving any details about the big day.

Insiders added that when a guest confirms their attendance, they are then sent the NDA link.

Anyone attending is prohibited from sharing details about the wedding and will be penalized if violations occur. Those consequences, however, were not disclosed to TMZ.

Page Six reached out to a rep for Swift for comment.

Karlie Kloss, Zoë Kravitz, Ed Sheeran, Suki Waterhouse, the Haim sisters, Gigi Hadid and Selena Gomez are among A-listers who have reportedly received invites.

Page Six recently confirmed that Miles Teller and his wife, Keleigh Sperry, were left off the list after a falling out.

Multiple sources told Page Six earlier this month that Swift and Kelce, both 36, are set to tie the knot at New York City’s Madison Square Garden.

“Everyone’s been sworn to secrecy,” said one source.

Page Six previously exclusively reported that the Grammy winner and football player’s special day will take place in New York over July 3 weekend.

A source explained that “privacy was of number one importance to them both.”

The insider added that the potential plan could have guests arriving to the venue on blacked-out buses.

Another source stated: “If you have billions you can transform the space into a wedding venue.”

The venue currently has no events scheduled from June 29 through July 6.

In the weeks leading up to their wedding, Swift and Kelce have been spotted out on the town together on multiple occasions.

They dined at several NYC hotspots last month, including Or’esh and Via Carota.

That same month, Kelce and Swift were also spotted at a Knicks game in New York.

On Thursday, the Kansas City Chiefs tight-end joined the “Lover” singer at her Songwriters Hall of Fame induction.

The couple, got engaged in August 2025, with Kelce popping the question to the pop star in the garden of his Leawood, Kansas, home after two years of dating.

Katy Perry sparkles in silver for World Cup 2026 opening ceremony performance

Katy Perry kicked off the 2026 World Cup with a bang.

She brought the energy at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles for the tournament’s opening ceremony Friday night, wearing a silver Stella McCartney FW26 Ready-to-Wear dress.

The floor-length dress featured an exaggerated waistline and was constructed with what appears to be long strands of tinsel — perhaps a nod to Tinseltown, the home of this year’s competition.

The pop star performed her song “Wonder,” off her 2024 album “143.”

Perry wasn’t alone for the performance — as she chose to share the worldwide stage with a special guest.

The day before she took to the stage, Perry shared a TikTok video introducing the world to Tius, a 10-year-old boy from Norway.

“That little voice you’re listening to right now is Tius,” she wrote alongside the clip as a young voice can be heard singing.

“Tius recorded his part on ‘Wonder’ when he was 5 years old in 2021. I heard his vocal in 2023 and was inspired to write the verses for ‘Wonder’ and added it to my sixth album,” she explained. “Tius is 10 now and flew all the way to LA from Norway to sing this song with me on Friday at the World Cup ✨⚽.”

Perry opened the star-studded number, which also included Tyla, Anitta and more.

The US intro is one of three opening ceremonies by the host countries, with Shakira headlining in Mexico City on Thursday and Alanis Morrisette, Michael Bublé and more in Canada Friday afternoon.

While performing on behalf of the United States, Perry also has connections up north after going public with her relationship with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in December.

Since then, her “Teenage Dream”-era wardrobe has become decidedly more subdued, especially for public political events — but she brought back her pop star ways for her on-stage performance Friday night.

The couple made their red carpet debut earlier this week, when Trudeau accompanied her to the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of her new concert movie.

The pair, who have been together for nearly a year, weren’t shy and showed tons of PDA for the cameras, hugging during the viewing of “Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour – Live From Paris.”

We’ll see what team the California native roots for throughout the tournament.

David Faustino gives update on Christina Applegate’s ‘very hard’ MS battle

wp content%2Fuploads%2Fsites%2F3%2F2026%2F06%2Fapplegate 75

David Faustino, who played Christina Applegate’s brother in “Married… With Children,” revealed the actress still has her signature humor as she battles multiple sclerosis.

“It’s been very hard for her, but she does keep her humor,” Faustino said in a new interview with US Weekly, calling Applegate’s MS diagnosis “a real blow.”

Faustino, 52, said Applegate, 54, has had a “dry, sarcastic sense of humor since the moment I met her,” and despite her serious health battle that left her recently hospitalized, “nothing has changed.”

The “Dead to Me” star is still “extremely sarcastic” and “extremely dry,” Faustino confirmed.

“She gets through this with some humor, and that’s kind of her way that she moves through it,” the voice actor explained, noting he’s been “a support” to Applegate since she announced her diagnosis in June 2021.

Faustino also confirmed he’s in regular contact with the Emmy Award winner.

“I do a lot of visits with her. A lot of texting, a lot of checking in,” he said. “A lot of funny just crap that we talk about. And that’s all I can do, right? Give her my love.”

He added, “We do have deep convos when we sit. But we also keep the laughter [going] as well.”

Applegate and Faustino played siblings Kelly and Bud Bundy, respectively, in “Married… With Children.”

The sitcom, which aired on Fox from 1987 to 1997, also starred Ed O’Neill and Katey Sagal as their parents, Al and Peggy Bundy.

Applegate gave an update on her health in April after she was hospitalized in Los Angeles.

“Thank you for the outpouring of love and well wishes. Health issues are a constant for me, but I’m a strong chick and I’m getting stronger and better every day,” she wrote on Instagram.

“I’m taking a moment to focus on my health, but I’ll be back with more to say soon enough,” the “You With the Sad Eyes” author added.

Applegate’s rep wouldn’t confirm if the actress was hospitalized due to her autoimmune disease.

“I have no comment on whether she is in the hospital or what her medical treatments are,” the rep told Page Six in a statement on April 16. “She’s had a long history of complicated medical conditions that she has been refreshingly open about, as evidenced in her memoir and on her podcast.”

In February, Applegate revealed she’s been confined to her bed due to ongoing pain, but she still tries to take her 15-year-old daughter, Sadie, to school.

“I want to take her; it’s my favorite thing to do. It’s the only time we have together by ourselves,” the “Friends” star explained.

“I tell myself, ‘Just get her there safely and get home so you can get back into bed.’ And that’s what I do,’” she added.
