“Ketamine Queen” Sentenced, Mario Movie SMASHES Records & Prada Sequel Returns | HWP 1017

This week on Hardly Working, we’ve got massive box office numbers, major celebrity headlines, and some wild Hollywood updates.

Let’s start with the biggest story in entertainment right now — the Super Mario Galaxy Movie is absolutely DOMINATING the box office.

• $372.5 million global opening
• $190.8 million in 5 days domestically
• Second biggest opening ever for Illumination

Critics? Mixed.
Fans? Obsessed.

Then we shift to a much heavier story.

Jasveen Sangha, known as the “Ketamine Queen,” has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for her role in the death of Matthew Perry.
Prosecutors revealed she supplied the fatal dose — and continued selling drugs even after his death. The court cited her lack of remorse as a key factor in the sentencing.

In movie news… Hollywood is still allergic to original ideas:

• A new Cinderella twist called Steps focuses on the stepsisters instead of Cinderella
• The Devil Wears Prada 2 is officially in the works, bringing back Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep

In celebrity news:

• Aubrey Plaza is expecting her first child after a very emotional year
• Taylor Frankie Paul has been granted limited supervised visitation with her son

Plus:

• A new behind-the-scenes look at the upcoming Harry Potter dropped on HBO Max

And of course… Unpopular Opinions:

• Culinary compatibility is one of the most important factors in a relationship
• Cupcakes and muffins need to lose the liner
• Motivation is unreliable — discipline matters more

Massive wins, heavy losses, and Hollywood doing what Hollywood does best — all in one episode.
