Major Leaguers vote each year to honor their own for achievements on and off the field. MLBPA’s 2025 Player of the Year is Seattle Mariners star Cal Raleigh, with Kyle Schwarber, Tarik Skubal, and Paul Skenes also taking top honors. Skenes joins “CBS Mornings” to celebrate the win.

Jamie Lee Curtis mentioned that her reaction to Charlie Kirk’s death was “mistranslated.”

The 66-year-old actress became emotional as she appeared on the WTF with Marc Maron podcast after the US conservative activist’s murder last month but has denied that she was supporting Kirk’s controversial views.

Jamie told Variety: “An excerpt of it mistranslated what I was saying as I wished him well – like I was talking about him in a very positive way, which I wasn’t; I was simply talking about his faith in God. And so, it was a mistranslation, which is a pun, but not.”

She continued, “In the binary world today, you cannot hold two ideas at the same time: I cannot be Jewish and totally believe in Israel’s right to exist and at the same time reject the destruction of Gaza.

“You can’t say that, because you get vilified for having a mind that says, ‘I can hold both those thoughts. I can be contradictory in that way,'” the Freaky Friday star mentioned.

Jamie also proudly said that she is happy to be outspoken and doesn’t intend to be “careful” when expressing her views.

She said: “I don’t have to be careful.”

“If I was careful, I wouldn’t have told you any of what I just told you. I would have just said, ‘Hi, welcome. I baked you banana bread. Here’s my dog. Here’s my house, blah, blah, blah. What do you want to know?’ I can’t not be who I am in the moment I am,” Jamie Lee Curtis concluded.

Ben Stiller has just come forward with his personal take on what having famous parents is like, as well as the term ‘nepo baby’ that follows many star kids around their whole life.

The conversation itself happened on The Howard Stern Show and showed the star being candid.

What is also pertinent to mention is that Stiller just released a documentary on his famous parents just recently too, its titled Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost.

In that chat he started off by hailing that term, rather than putting it down because to Stiller the moniker is more like a “selling point” than anything else.

“I think it’s kind of like that Brat Pack thing, right?” he also noted. “New York Magazine, they coined a phrase, and then it just became a thing.”

“But it’s always been what it is, in humanity and life. It’s like, you buy a violin, a Stradivarius or whatever, it’s been in the family for hundreds of years. That’s a selling point.”

However, he did make sure to point out that there are “other arguments to be made about access and all those things,” even though he also saw the less glamorous, sometimes bad sides of that limelight too, growing up.

“For me, I think growing up around it, we’re talking about all these things that I saw with my parents, you actually, as a kid, see the dark underside of it. The stress, the effects it has on relationships. You see that up close as a kid, and then you still wanna go into it,” he admitted during that chat too.

During that chat he also recalled how his mom’s influence effected his very first acting job too, which was an off-Broadway production called House of Blue Leaves.

He explained he didn’t make it on his own and “couldn’t get in because the casting director didn’t want to see me” but the final call back came as “a favor” from is mom.

But regardless, before concluding he made it a point to add, “if you have the passion, you do it. You go for it.”
