Things to do
- Rebel Wilson, LiveTalks LA: Actor and comedian Rebel Wilson’s upcoming memoir, Rebel Rising, is certainly causing a stir in the entertainment world this week. The brassy Australian doesn’t hold back in her new book, talking about everything from losing her virginity at 35 to stories from the Pitch Perfect set to some quite serious sexual harassment allegations star Sacha Baron Cohen. Wilson joins former People Magazine editor-in-chief Jess Cagle for a no-holds-barred chat that’s sure to make headlines Tuesday morning.
Check out our full list of things to do this week.
