Jordyn’s Buzz – July 19th, 2024

Get in the Olympics spirit this weekend by watching the new Simone Biles series on Netflix called Simone Biles Rising!

The Netflix description is as follows: Follow gymnast Simone Biles as she balances her personal life, mental health journey and training ahead of a highly anticipated return to the Olympics.

There are currently two episodes on Netflix with more to come in the fall! This should be a fun watch before the Paris Olympics which start ONE WEEK FROM TODAY! If you’re looking to watch, you can catch the Opening Ceremony live on NBC and stream live on Peacock and NBCOlympics.com beginning on July 26 at 12 p.m. ET/9 a.m. PT.

One of this year’s most highly anticipated movies hits theaters today! Whether you were a fan of the original movie or not, I’m sure you’ve seen all the press surrounding the new Twisters film starring Glen Powell and Daisy Edgar Jones!

Twisters is a “stand-alone sequel” to the 1996 movie Twister, meaning that the film takes place in the same universe as the original, but you do not need to see that movie to understand or enjoy this new one.

Glen Powell has been doing interview after interview for this movie and I LOVED something I saw him say this week. Powell shared that his parents have made cameos in all of his movies, including Twisters. Check out the photo below from the movie. His parents are sitting behind he and Daisy in the shot.

Glen Powell’s parents appear behind him and Daisy Edgar-Jones in <em>Twisters</em>.

In terms of TV, a really fascinating article about The Vampire Diaries came out this week. 

I’m a HUGE TVD fan and have been for several years – I’ve been able to meet the cast and I’ve made some of my closest friends in the world from this show – and even I didn’t know some of these fun facts. Check out the article here!
