That has got to be fun, no matter how many times you've done it.

 

[Kelly]

There is an interview out there with Kevin Smith's review of the ceremony
.....very sweet, but of course it is spiced with Kevin's language

She looks different there. What's she done with her hair when I thought she had bangs?

 

[Kelly]

She does, just extensions...

 

[Brierrose]

Could be extensions but I'm doubtful. Melissa's denied using extensions in the past, since many actresses do and don't deny it it's not some taboo thing. The extreme side part plus bobbypins, to keep the bangs pinned back under the hair brought to the side, and hairspray could create that look. My cousin has bangs and is able to do something very similar without extensions.

 

[Gee]

Stumbled upon this. For ASMR fans...

Melissa and Chris singing "Old-Fashioned Wedding" from Annie Get Your Gun at the Concert for America:



Still a crime they didn't let Chris sing in the "Duet" crossover. He's got a great voice.

Also that they had Mon-El be bad at Karaoke.

That sounds great. I think the whole musical crossover could've been a lot better. It didn't even really show off Melissa's range, and both Kara and Barry took far too long in the episode before they felt willing enough to sing.

I hope they do a much better one in future and put as much planning into it as they do for their other annual Crisis-type crossovers.

Melissa very bravely opened up today about her heartbreaking past experience with domestic violence, and she revealed the awful truth about that permanent eye injury she sustained in 2015. Trigger warning for violent details:



She is a superhero, and my heart goes out to her. Glad she seems to be in a good place and a happy marriage now. Blake Jenner can rot.

 

[vantheman77]

Now we know why they divorced.

 

[Zarex]

I foolishly felt bad for the A-hole after Melissa quickly moved on after their marriage ended. I should have known better than to judge a situation I knew absolutely nothing about.

 

[Thome216]

They really need to do another crossover with just their shows.

Sad about Melissa being that situation, but very happy that she got out of it and moved on to something better. Way to go Supergirl!

#IStandWithMelissa To think she was going through this s@$t during the lengthy audition process then the intense pressure during season one for the show to succeed. News outlets are being careful not to name him but it's pretty obvious from the timing of that eye injury and the fact she said that he's younger than her. She talked about wearing an eyepatch during a fitting for the Supergirl suit before season one started filming that would have been in 2015. It doesn't take much to figure out who the younger man she was married to at that time was. To think that a$$hole got to guest star on her show.

 

[flickchick85]

Him guest-starring as her love interest has an added ick-factor when you take into account her testimony about his controlling jealousy and not wanting her to have romantic scenes with other actors.

Man, good for Melissa for getting out of that mess and speaking out about it.. Guess she really is a hero.
