JOELLE GARGUILO. JOHN LEGEND. >>> IT IS TIME TO G CAUGHT UP ON THE HOT HOLLYWOOD HEADLINES. >> E! NEWS CO-HOST JUSTIN SYLVESTER IS IN L.A. AND HE'S GOT THE SCOOP. JUSTIN, HEY! >> HI, JUSTIN. >> HOW ARE YOU? >> FIRST OF ALL, ONE OF Y'ALL COULD HAVE SEPTEMBER ME AN EMAIL THAT THE KIDS WERE IN STUDIO TODAY. YOU KNOW THIS MOUTH IS NOT KID-FRIENDLY. >> NO, WE RAN THEM AWAY. WE KNEW YOU WERE COMING, SO WE ASKED THEM TO LEAVE THE BUILDING. LET'S TALK ABOUT THIS DOCUMENTARY. EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT. IT'S ABOUT WENDY WILLIAMS AND THERE IS ACTUALLY A LOT OF -- IT'S SAD. IT'S HEARTBREAKING. YEAH. >> YEAH, IT'S HEARTBREAKING. YOU KNOW WHAT? I KNOW IT WAS A LOT TO WATCH. SO I AM GOING TO BREAK THIS DOWN FOR YOU GUYS IN BULLET POINTS. THIS DOCUMENTARY HAS SO MUCH. THE FIRST THING THAT WE LEARNED WAS THAT WENDY WAS STRUGGLING WITH A DRINKING ISSUE THAT EVERYBODY WAS TIP-TOEING AROUND. IT'S FAIR. WE ALL SOMEONE IN OUR FAMILY WE TIP-TOE AROUND FOR YEARS. I WASN'T UPSET ABOUT THAT. THE SECOND THING WE LEARNED IS SHE WAS PUT UNDER A COURT-APPOINTED GUARDIAN SHIP, WHICH SOUNDS SAFE, WHICH SOUNDS FAIR, BUT ACCORDING TO WENDY'S SISTER AND NIECE, THEY HAD A HARD TIME CONTACTING HER BECAUSE OF THIS. NOW, THE THING THAT PIQUED EVERYBODY'S INTEREST THIS WEEKEND, INCLUDING MYSELF, WAS WENDY WAS DIAGNOSED WITH APHASIA AND DEMENTIA. THAT'S THE SAME THING THAT BRUCE WILLIS WAS DIAGNOSED WITH EARLIER LAST YEAR. NOW, HERE IS MY ISSUE. WE DIDN'T FIND THIS OUT UNTIL EPISODE 4. NOW, IF I'M A NORMAL PERSON WATCHING ONE, TWO, AND THREE, I'M THINKING, WENDY IS OUT OF HER MIND. WENDY IS DRUNK. WENDY MUST BE ON PILLS. BUT HAD I KNOWN AS A VIEWER THAT WENDY WAS STRUGGLING WITH DEMENTIA, I FEEL LIKE PEOPLE WOULD HAVE WATCHED THIS DOCUMENTARY AND SHARED ABOUT IT ON SOCIAL IN A DIFFERENT LENS. AND YOU EVEN HAVE THE PRODUCERS WHO PRODUCED THIS DOCUMENTARY SAYING WE WOULD HAVE NEVER PRESSED RECORD HAD WE KNOWN ABOUT THE DIAGNOSIS. SO THIS IS KIND OF WILD AND CRAZY, BUT THERE IS ALWAYS A LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL. WENDY'S FAMILY SAID SHE HAS MADE A 180. SHE IS DOING BETTER. SHE IS IN A FACILITY. SHE IS GETTING BETTER EVERY DAY. SHE IS SOUNDING MORE LIKE HERSELF EVERY DAY. EVEN WENDY THANKED PEOPLE, YOU KNOW, ONLINE SAYING THANK YOU FOR THE WELL WISHES. >> YEAH, THE MAKERS OF THE DOC SAID THEY WOULDN'T HAVE PUSHED PLAY, BUT THEY KNEW LATER. >> YEAH. EPISODE 4 THEY DISCLOSE IT. ISN'T THAT -- DIDN'T THEY KNOW? >> YEAH. I THINK IT'S KIND OF SORT OF UP TO THE NETWORK HOW THEY EDIT IT, WHAT THEY PUT IN THE DOCUMENTARY. AND, OBVIOUSLY, THE NETWORK KNEW ABOUT THE DIAGNOSIS BECAUSE IT ENDED UP IN THE DOCUMENTARY. >> RIGHT. >> I JUST WISH THEY WOULD HAVE PUT IT IN EPISODE 1, BECAUSE IF MY MOTHER WAS WENDY WILLIAMS, IF MY SISTER WAS WENDY WILLIAMS, IF MY NIECE WAS WENDY WILLIAMS, I WOULD WANT PEOPLE TO LEARN FROM THIS AND TAKE IT THROUGH THAT LENS. >> YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT. OKAY. WELL, WE ARE WISHING HER ALL OF OUR LOVE. SO THERE IS AN ON-SCREEN DUO THAT EVERYBODY IS TALKING ABOUT. >> YOU GUYS, I THINK WE FOUND OUR NEW RICHARD GERE AND JULIA ROBERTS. SYDNEY SWEENEY AND GLEN POWELL JUST STARRED IN "ANYONE BUT YOU." NOW, THIS MIGHT NOT SEEM LIKE A BIG DEAL, BUT THEY MADE $200 MILLION AT THE BOX OFFICE, WHICH IS HUGE. GLEN POWELL SAID IN AN INTERVIEW HE AND SYDNEY ARE LOOKING FOR THEIR NEXT SCRIPT, AND HE THINKS HE MAY HAVE FOUND IT. SO WE'RE GOING TO SEE A LOT MORE OF THESE TWO ON SCREEN SOON. >> THIS THING REALLY DID CATCH FIRE LATER. IT DIDN'T CATCH FIRE RIGHT OUT OF THE GATE. BUT EVERYONE WENT TO SEE IT. >> WELL, LISTEN. IT MADE 6 MILLION OPENING NIGHT. NOW, $6 MILLION MAY SOUND LIKE A LOT OF MONEY, BUT IN HOLLYWOOD AFTER YOU PAY TAXES, PAY EVERYBODY, AFTER THE BABY MAMA GETS THE CUT, IT IS NO MONEY. PEOPLE HEARD THEY HAD CHEMISTRY, WANTED TO SEE IT. I SAW IT TWICE TO SEE IF THE RUMORS WERE TRUE IF THEY HOOKED UP. EVERYONE WENT TO SEE IT. 200 MILLION. THEY ARE BONA FIDE STARS. >> COOL. WELL, JUSTIN, THANK YOU FOR
