Cameo

    DIRECTOR Gareth Edwards says he gave himself a cameo in the “Star Wars” spinoff “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.” But, as with most things “Star Wars,” Edwards is staying mum on what exactly that entails.

    The reveal, he said, might have to wait for the DVD extras.

    Edwards is a self-proclaimed “Star Wars” super fan and has said that as a child he used to watch the first 10 minutes of the 1977 “Star Wars” every day before school. “Rogue One” is set right before the events of that original film and chronicles the saga of the rebels who steal the plans for the Death Star. Arriving in theaters Dec. 16, “Rogue One” is the first in a series of spinoffs set inside the universe of “Star Wars.”

    Baby

    ASHTON KUTCHER and his wife Mila Kunis announced the name of their newborn Friday. “Dimitri Portwood Kutcher was born at 1:21 a.m. on November 30, weighing 8 pounds and 15 ounces,” the post on Kutcher’s website read.

    The couple’s first child, daughter Wyatt Isabelle, was born in October 2014. Kutcher, 38, and Kunis, 33 were married in a low-key ceremony in July 2015.

    Birthday girl

    BRITNEY SPEARS (C) celebrated her 35th birthday with a high-energy performance of her greatest hits at 102.7 KIIS FM’s Jingle Ball 2016 Friday.

    Spears took the stage at Los Angeles’ Staples Center and wowed the audience with hits including “Womanizer,” “I’m a Slave 4 U,” “Toxic” and “(You Drive Me) Crazy.” Jingle Ball host Ryan Seacrest surprised Spears with a birthday cake and, with some help from Tinashe, led the audience in a “Happy Birthday” sing-along.

    Stage fall

    COUNTRY music artist Granger Smith was able to continue performing after falling from a stage in New Jersey, but was later hospitalized. A spokeswoman said in a statement Smith shared on Twitter that he fell while singing at the Starland Ballroom in Sayreville on Friday night.

    Smith was being treated for two broken ribs and a punctured and partially collapsed lung. Smith was standing on an audio monitor when it gave way and he fell into a metal barricade. He got back up and continued performing.
