‘I felt like I was at home’ THE DISTRICT When Phil Colbert moved into his home in January in Northwest D.C.’s Manor Park neighborhood, all he had was a few blankets and a Panasonic stereo.

His second-floor studio was mostly bare — a reminder that he hadn’t had a stable home in years.

He first experienced homelessness when he voluntarily followed his sister into the streets to protect her. Then, he said, he became involved with alcohol, drugs and a life of petty crime.

Soon, he found himself with an arrest record for misdemeanor drug crimes, and he ended up serving a 15-month jail sentence for a parole violation.

Colbert, 52, had almost forgotten what it felt like to have a home. But he recently got one, and the memories came flooding back. His home got a futon, a flatscreen TV, cookware and other items, courtesy of the Capitol Hill garage-turned-furnitureshop The Shed DC. “I’m just very grateful because it could have been worse,”

Furniture store designs a studio for a man who used to be homeless

The Shed DC helped Phil Colbert, above, decorate his apartment.

Colbert said as he looked around his apartment. “I could have been still out in the streets.”

Rebecca Margao, owner of the Shed D.C., galvanized community members to completely redesign Colbert’s apartment in the summer. She and five other volunteers transformed it from a blank canvas into a comfortable living space. She connected with Colbert by reaching out to Pathways to Housing, a nonprofit that combats homelessness.

Colbert, who grew up in

Volunteers asked Colbert about his personal style before transforming his space.

Southeast, said Pathways first helped him find an apartment 14 years ago, but he said mental illnesses kept him moving between apartments, shelters and the streets for about a decade.

When he finished serving time for his parole violation in July 2018, Colbert said he struggled to get back on his feet. Pathways helped him get his studio apartment in Manor Park.

Colbert told Margao that he wanted a big dining room table to host guests and a PlayStation 4 to play basketball and baseball games. He got the table but not the PlayStation.

A team of volunteers hung curtains and music-themed artwork — a painting of a boombox and another of a DJ controller.

The team wanted to show Colbert that they had accounted for his personal style, Margao said.

Colbert returned to the revamped space on his birthday.

“For the first time,” Colbert said, “I felt like I was at home.”

His younger brother came over that night, and Colbert cooked hamburgers. Then they ate together at the dining room table that Colbert had wished for, in a home that was his own.

Need for housing intensifies REGION Last year, the D.C. region came together to fix a 40-year-old problem by providing Metro with dedicated funding. Now, elected officials and business and nonprofit leaders are preparing a push to overcome another challenge: the critical shortage of affordable housing.

A new report released Wednesday says the region needs to add 374,000 housing units by 2030.

Officials say that’s about 30% more than expected at present.

The Urban Institute study also says a dramatic shift is needed in the kind of housing produced.

More than three-fourths of the new units need to be for low- and middle-income families, where shortages are greatest. Developers prefer to build upscale housing because it’s more profitable.

The report includes detailed recommendations to increase public subsidies, relax zoning and regulatory restrictions and strengthen tenant protections. It asks each county and municipality in the region to commit to a 10-year target for producing affordable housing units.

MARVIN JOSEPH (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Report calls for addition of 374,000 new units in the region by 2030

The Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments is set to vote next week on committing the region to adding 75,000 housing units by 2030.

The study was released a week before the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments (COG) is set to vote on a plan in which the region would commit to building an extra 75,000 housing units between 2020 and 2030 — a 31% increase over forecasts.

The COG’s aim is to form a broad-based movement to advocate for building more low- and middle-cost housing and to prevent the region from experiencing

Upgrades proposed The D.C. Housing Authority plans to conduct upgrades on 2,610 of the city’s 8,000 public housing units, according to a Curbed report. Four properties would get short-term repairs, while 10 others would get more comprehensive overhauls to address long-standing subpar conditions. The plan’s estimated cost is between $2.2 billion and $2.5 billion over 20 years. (EXPRESS)

acute shortages. A related goal is to stop or at least slow the displacement of low-income communities via gentrification.

The model is the regionwide coalition of politicians, business groups, unions and nonprofit organizations that united to win $500 million a year in new dedicated funding for Metro.

“We have to get ahead of the housing affordability challenges so we don’t find ourselves 10 or 15 years from now in a crisis,” partnership chief executive Jason Miller said. “We’re in a window right now where action can move the needle and avoid some of those outcomes that we’ve seen in other parts of the country.”

Since 2010, only 10% of the new housing units in the region have cost $1,299 a month or less, and thus were affordable for households with annual incomes of $54,300 or less, according to the Urban Institute.

The study says the region will have to raise that share to 38% by 2030 to produce the 141,000 new units needed in that price range.

The study found that 493,000 households in the region are at risk of displacement as rents and taxes rise. Of those, 220,000 households have annual incomes below $75,000.

Shattered glass from buildings raises concerns BETHESDA Montgomery County officials are trying to figure out why glass panels on mid- and high-rise buildings in downtown Bethesda are spontaneously shattering, raining glass onto sidewalks.

County building officials say they are investigating whether there are any connections between windows and large glass panels that have fallen over the past two years from three buildings, all built since 2014, near the Bethesda Metro station.

Two of the building owners say their engineering consultants have found the failed glass had manufacturing flaws.

On Aug. 22, a 12-year-old girl outside a grocery store at 8300 Wisconsin Ave. suffered minor injuries when pebble-sized glass fell from above. A glass canopy at the same building was discovered shattered Tuesday, near a school bus stop.

Reports of falling glass first surfaced in spring 2017 at an office building at 4500 East-West Highway, where three panels of the glass facade shattered and fell.

“We need to get more answers,” said Hadi Mansouri, acting chief of Montgomery’s Department of Permitting Services. “Why all of a sudden it’s happening is something we’re trying to figure out. ... It’s a life and safety issue.”

Mansouri said the county hasn’t determined who made the glass. KATHERINE SHAVER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

TEHRAN Iran will take a new and significant step away from the 2015 nuclear accord it struck with world powers ahead of a deadline Tehran set for Europe to reset the terms of the deal, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said Wednesday.

In comments carried by Iran’s state television, Rouhani said the moves will have an “extraordinary” impact on and considerably accelerate the country’s nuclear energy program. He also gave Europe another two months to reset the terms of the deal, which has been under threat since the United States abandoned the pact last year.

Iran had said it would reduce its commitments under the accord every 60 days until Europe renegotiates the agreement and offsets the effects of renewed U.S. sanctions, notably by compensating Iran for lost oil revenue.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said the country would take steps away from a 2015 nuclear accord.

In July, Iran breached the pact’s limits on its stockpile of enriched uranium and exceeded a cap on enrichment levels, raising them from 3.67% to 4.5%. (Weapons-grade uranium is enriched to about a 90% concentration of uranium-235, a fissile isotope.)

It was unclea r Wed nes day exactly what steps Iran would take to violate the pact.

Loyalty to Trump properties ANALYSIS Accepting Vice President Pence’s explanation for why he chose to stay at a Trump Organization property in Ireland instead of a venue closer to his meetings in the country’s capital of Dublin requires some generosity on the part of the observer.

Ireland’s not a big country geographically, but it’s nonetheless the case that there aren’t many places farther from Dublin than the small town of Doonbeg.

After originally indicating that President Trump had suggested that his vice president stay at the Trump Organization golf course there — a stay that would have the happy coincidence of slipping some money into the president’s pocket — the vice president’s team later insisted that it was a function of logistics to accommodate meetings on both the country’s western (Doonbeg) and eastern (Dublin) coasts.

Perhaps this was indeed a logistical decision made after Hurricane Dorian upended Pence’s plans and not something related to Trump. But it’s hard to believe that Trump’s views weren’t a consideration, given how commonly Trump properties have been used by government agencies and political groups since he took office.

The Post learned last month of another example of a Trump ally selecting a Trump Organization

During a recent trip to Ireland, Vice President Pence opted to stay at a Trump property in Doonbeg instead of closer to his meetings in Dublin.

company to the tune of more than $30,000. While Pence’s staff told reporters that he was paying his family’s costs for staying at the Trump property in Ireland, The Post has documented a number of examples where Trump visits to

Trump Organization properties has resulted in spending from other government agencies at the same property during the visit.

Groups such as ProPublica have compiled existing data focused on the beginning of 2017 to determine where and when government agencies and political action committees have spent money at Trump properties.

On nearly 500 days of Trump’s 958-day-old presidency, political action committees or government agencies including the departments of Defense and State have spent money at Trump Organization properties.

The constant political spending is also important. Before Trump clinched the Republican Party’s nomination in May 2016, political groups not directly derived from Trump’s campaign had spent only about $2,300 at Trump properties in the 2016 spending cycle. By Election Day, that surged to $33,000. In the 2018 cycle, according to ProPublica data, the number jumped to $2.75 million.

By combining the documented visits of government agencies with Trump’s own visits to his company’s properties, the attention lavished on the Trump Organization is more obvious. On 682 of Trump’s 958 days in office, Trump, a government agency or official, or a political action committee has visited or spent money at a Trump property.

That’s more than seven out of every 10 days, or about five days out of every week. PHILIP BUMP (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Parliament balks at new elections LONDON Prime Minister Boris Johnson called Wednesday for a national election on Oct. 15, saying it was the only way out of Britain’s Brexit impasse after opposition lawmakers moved to block his plan to leave the European Union next month without a divorce deal.

But Parliament delivered Johnson his third defeat in two days, refusing to vote in sufficient numbers for a motion triggering a vote. Johnson indicated he would try again, saying an election was the only way forward, and accusing Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn of being afraid of the public’s judgment.

“The obvious conclusion, I’m afraid, is that he does not think he will win,” Johnson said.

After lawmakers in the House of Commons approved a bill designed to halt a no-deal Brexit, he said: “There is only one way forward for the country.”

Johnson insists Britain must leave the EU on Oct. 31, with or without a deal, and he accused the opposition of trying to “overturn the biggest democratic vote in our history,” referring to the

outcome of the 2016 referendum to leave the EU. But Johnson did not get the general election he craves — at least not yet. Opposition parties, deeply mistrustful of Johnson, said they would not back one until the anti-no deal bill becomes law. Johnson needs the support of two-thirds of the 650 lawmakers in the House of Commons to trigger an election.

“Let the bill pass and have Royal Assent and then we can have a general election,” said Corbyn.

Johnson signaled that he would try again to trigger a snap election, urging opposition lawmakers to reflect overnight and in the course of the next few days.

Sandra Cooke, who lives in Nassau, said her sister-in-law was trapped under her roof for 17 hours in the Abaco islands and wrapped herself in a shower curtain as she waited.

“The dog laid on top of her to keep her warm until the neighbors could come to help,” she said. “All of my family lives in Marsh Harbour, and everybody lost everything. Not one of them have a home to live anymore.” MARKO ÁLVAREZ, DÁNICA COTO AND

On Wednesday, it appears the White House attempted to retroactively correct a tweet that President Trump issued over the weekend in which he warned, erroneously, that Alabama would be impacted by Hurricane Dorian.

In a White House video released Wednesday, Trump displays a modified National Hurricane Center “Cone of Uncertainty” forecast, dated from 11 a.m. on Aug. 29, indicating Alabama would in fact be impacted. The graphic, above, appears to have been altered with a Sharpie to indicate a risk the storm would move into Alabama from Florida.

“We had actually our original chart was that it was going to be hit, hitting Florida directly,” Trump said in the video.

Asked about the altered chart at a White House event Wednesday, Trump said his briefings included a “95% chance probability” that Alabama would be hit. When asked if the chart had been drawn on, Trump said: “I don’t know, I don’t know.”

Trump’s tweet on Sunday came as Dorian was hitting the Bahamas as a Category 5 hurricane, and sparked enough public alarm that it prompted the National Weather Service in Birmingham, Ala., to bluntly tweet 20 minutes later: “Alabama will NOT see any impacts from #Dorian.” MATTHEW CAPPUCCI

An aerial view of damage caused by Dorian is seen Wednesday in Marsh Harbour on Great Abaco Island, Bahamas.

Tracking Dorian

RAMON ESPINOSA (AP)

FREEPORT, BAHAMAS The ground crunched under Greg Alem’s feet on Wednesday as he walked over the ruins of his home, laid waste by Hurricane Dorian. He touched a splintered beam of wood and pointed to the fallen trees, overcome by memories.

“We planted those trees ourselves. Everything has a memory, you know,” he said. “It’s so, so sad. ... In the Bible there is a person called Job, and I feel like Job right now. He’s lost everything, but his faith kept him strong.”

The devastation wrought by Dorian — and the terror it inflicted during its day-and-a-half mauling of the Bahamas — came into focus Wednesday as the passing of the storm revealed a muddy, debris-strewn landscape of smashed and floodedout homes on Abaco and Grand Bahama islands. Officially, the death toll from the strongest hurricane on record ever to hit the country stood at 20, but there was little doubt it would rise.

With a now-distant Dorian pushing its way up the southeastern U.S. coast, menacing Georgia and the Carolinas, many people living in the Bahamas were in shock as they came out of shelters and checked on their homes.

In one community, George Bolter stood in the sunshine and surveyed the ruins of what was once his home. He picked at the debris, trying to find something, anything, salvageable. A couple of walls were the only thing left.

A new study links all soda to early death

A man watches Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam’s TV announcement Wednesday to end the extradition bill.

Hong Kong’s Lam fully removes extradition bill Protesters say move by embattled leader is too little, too late HONG KONG After months of clashes and chaos, Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam announced an end Wednesday to the extradition bill that touched off the territory’s worst political crisis since its handover to China. The reply from protesters and even pro-government officials was swift and sharp: too little, too late.

The dueling messages — an olive branch from Lam and rebuff from opponents — suggest little hope for a breakthrough to ease the increasingly violent

confrontations playing out on Hong Kong’s streets.

The reason is that the protests have gone far beyond the nowdead bill to allow extradition to mainland China. The dissent has grown into a broad base that includes shopkeepers, civil servants, students and others fearing that Hong Kong’s freedoms and special status within China are in jeopardy.

And Lam’s move was widely seen as falling short on many fronts — including failing to address the concerns over the expanding use of force by police.

Meanwhile, representatives from Lam’s Cabinet say their hands are tied in doing much more. That will likely extend the

$170M

tumult ahead of Oct. 1 events to mark the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China.

Protesters have threatened huge demonstrations in Hong Kong to mark the day — which could be a major embarrassment to China’s state-run celebrations.

“We should all think deeply whether escalating violence and disturbances is the answer,” Lam said in the speech, before announcing steps she would take to kick-start a dialogue with the public, notably a full withdrawal of the extradition bill. That process will start once the legislature meets again in October, Lam added. SHIBANI MAHTANI AND TIMOTHY

Hold up, diet soda drinkers.

Regular consumption of soft drinks — both sugarsweetened and artificially sweetened — was found to be associated with a greater risk of all causes of death in a study published this week in JAMA Internal Medicine.

The study tracked 451,743 men and women from 10 countries in Europe. It found that consumption of two or more glasses of artificially sweetened soft drinks a day was positively associated with deaths from circulatory diseases.

For sugar-sweetened soft drinks, one or more glasses a day were associated with deaths from digestive diseases. (TWP)

Maria aid part of Pentagon funds diverted to wall NATIONAL SECURITY The Pentagon is defunding Hurricane Maria recovery projects at military installations in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands to pay for President Trump’s border wall, and is also taking money from construction projects across Europe designed to help allies deter Russia.

The details of the 127 military construction projects that stand to lose funding to pay $3.6 billion for fencing and barriers on the southern border with Mexico were made public Wednesday by the Department of Defense.

The list includes projects across 23 U.S. states, three U.S. territories and 20 countries. The decisions deal a particular blow to Puerto Rico, which stands to see more than $400 million worth of planned projects lose funding. Roughly $770 million of the funding will be taken from projects across allied European nations aimed at helping deter a possible attack from Russia.

Officially, the Pentagon is saying that the affected projects are “deferred,” but in order for them to go ahead in the future, Congress must again fund them. The information about the projects comes a day after Defense Secretary Mark Esper formally approved a decision to divert the $3.6 billion to pay for 175 miles of barrier.

The $3.6 billion will pay to replace existing barriers or fences and construct new fence systems. PAUL SONNE AND SEUNG MIN KIM (TWP)

Aníbal Sánchez had his worst outing of the season on Wednesday against the Mets.

NATS RELIEVER

Pitcher back 4 years after major injury

Nats run out of that magic METS 8, NATIONALS 4 The Nationals prepared to get blown out. They trailed the Mets by six in the seventh inning on Wednesday and, despite the previous night’s memorable comeback, conceded it could stay that way. Aaron Barrett got up in the bullpen. The right-handed reliever who endured years of surgery and rehab to mount a miraculous comeback rejoining the Nationals on Wednesday morning. He returned in a lowleverage inning.

But then, as Max Scherzer once said, “things were happening.” Gerardo Parra walked.

Andrew Stevenson, too. Asdrúbal Cabrera singled in a run, and Anthony Rendon doubled in two more to trim the deficit to three.

The crowd perked up, the team sat Barrett and roused Wander

Suero. This was a game again.

Then the magic bottle finally ran dry. Lefty specialist Luis Avilan struck out Juan Soto. The Mets’ best reliever, Seth Lugo, delivered two easy innings. Justin Wilson closed it out. The Nationals lost the game, 8-4, and dropped the series to finish their season slate against the Mets at 7-12.

The defeat sunk the Nationals seven games behind the National League East-leading Braves, who had the day off before the Nationals arrive today for a four-game set this weekend.

Except for that brief jolt in the seventh when, no way, they can’t be doing this again, the hot and slow afternoon in Nationals Park felt sluggish. It was just hours ago that the Nationals mobbed home plate to complete the greatest comeback in the ninth inning or

JOHN McDONNELL (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Hours after incredible comeback victory, Washington fails to recapture spark in finale

later in franchise history.

“Yesterday happened, it was a great feeling for us,” Martinez said before Wednesday’s game.

“But we got to focus on today.”

The Nationals had a chance to win the series, a significant fact considering that, if not for one swing, they would have entered the game 6-12 against the Mets this season. Nationals Park felt like it had momentum; in his first at-bat on Wednesday, Kurt Suzuki received a scattered standing

ovation. But the Nationals seemed intent on replicating Tuesday night’s dire circumstances.

Starter Aníbal Sánchez cruised through the first two innings but, as the afternoon wore on, struggled to stay down in the zone. He looked lost in what became his worst outing of the season, departing in the fifth having faced three batters without getting one out. He had fewer strikeouts (two) than home runs allowed (three).

SAM FORTIER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

A NIGHT TO REMEMBER

Best reactions to an epic comeback win

Aaron Barrett was on the Nationals’ 40-man roster this week for the first time in four years. Barrett, now 31, had Tommy John surgery on his right elbow in 2015. Close to a year later, while throwing a simulated game, his humerus snapped. Witnesses compared the sound of his arm breaking to a gun shot. Tuesday, with Austen Williams on the 60-day injured list, the Nats called up Barrett, who had a 2.75 ERA and 31 saves for Class AA Harrisburg this season. At times, he wondered whether he’d get through the grueling rehab process.

“But I’m not a quitter, never have been, and I found it in myself to keep pushing forward,” Barrett said. “And I said it all along: When I make it back, it’s going to be a hell of a comeback story.” (TWP)

r e m Sum

Is Elliott actually worth that $90M? ANALYSIS Jerry Jones and the Cowboys blinked, awarding disgruntled running back Ezekiel Elliott a six-year, $90 million extension on Wednesday, bringing his total contract value to $103 million over eight years, with $50 million guaranteed. The contract extension makes Elliott the league’s top-paid running back, pushing Todd Gurley’s $14.375 million per year out of the No. 1 spot.

On the surface, paying Elliott, a two-time Pro Bowler who led the NFL in touches (381) and rushing yards (1,434) in 2018 (and in rushing yards in 2016), makes sense. But a deeper look suggests that this will be a waste of precious cap dollars.

The NFL has transformed into a passing league. In 2003, teams averaged 28.3 rushing attempts per game, but that figure has been on a steady decline ever since, with teams averaging 25.9 rushes per game in 2018, the lowest in pro football history.

Rushing is not nearly as important to winning games in the NFL as passing. According to data researcher Ed Feng,

Ezekiel Elliott is now the highestpaid running back in the NFL.

85% of playoff teams from 1998 through 2017 had a positive pass efficiency, while only 58% of playoff teams during that same period had a positive team rush efficiency.

But beyond the changing nature of the NFL, the 24-year-old Elliott’s own production when compared to similar star backs doesn’t justify his price tag.

Football Outsiders ranked Elliott as the ninth most-valuable back of 2018 per Defense-adjusted Yards Above Replacement and 18th per Defense-adjusted Value Over Average. That means eight rushers, including Gurley, Derrick Henry of the Titans and the Saints’ Alvin Kamara, had more total value than Elliott last season, and 17 produced more value per play.

SARAH KELLY | COLLEGE FOOTBALL ANALYSIS

Season getting weird already In introducing this column, I argued that college football is fun because of its penchant for

chaos, and Week 1 delivered.

Oregon vs. Auburn was exactly what it promised, but the real fun was in unexpected dumpster fires like Tennessee’s home loss to 25-point underdog Georgia State or Florida State’s blown 18-point lead at home against Boise State. Just tremendous work, everyone. Here’s what to keep an eye on going into Week 2 for maximum hilarity.

Auburn QB Bo Nix

Missouri QB Kelly Bryant

Texas A&M QB Kellen Mond

Hawaii WR Cedric Byrd II

Team on the rise

Team in decline

Big test ahead

Late-night football

Auburn’s breathtaking win over Oregon, behind a masterful pass from QB Bo Nix, bumped the Tigers from No. 16 to No. 10 in the AP poll and reminded the world that Auburn is a Designated Chaos Team. With a true freshman QB and five more ranked teams on the schedule, 2019 could become a vintage Chaos Year. Buckle up.

Will there be havoc Saturday vs. Tulane (7:30 p.m., ESPN2)?

Missouri was supposed to be a team on the rise this year. New quarterback Kelly Bryant, a transfer from Clemson, rolled into Laramie, Wyo., a 17 ½-point favorite. He put up 423 yards passing and two touchdowns against Wyoming and still left with an L. Saturday’s game against West Virginia (noon, ESPN2) will answer a lingering question: Can Mizzou have nice things?

I say this with love: Texas A&M ain’t that good. The No. 12 Aggies are 17½-point underdogs at No. 1 Clemson.

The Tigers, who return QB Trevor Lawrence — a Heisman front-runner — from last year’s national champion team, will likely expose A&M on Saturday (3:30 p.m., ABC). It won’t be pretty, but it’ll give the Aggies a better sense of what they’re working with.

The only thing better than watching Pac-12 football late into the night is watching Hawaii football even later into the night.

The Rainbow Warriors jumped from 3-9 in 2017 to 8-6 in 2018 with a run-and-shoot offense that’s fun to watch and opened this season with a 45-38 win vs.

Arizona. They host Oregon State at 11:59 p.m. Saturday as fivepoint favorites, a game that’s being streamed on Facebook.

Not only does he have to master 9,000 words in irregular rhyme, but he has to deliver them while mixing cocktails and serving the drinks to the audience.

“The Smuggler” is the latest site-specific show staged

by D.C. collective Solas Nua, which describes itself as “the only organization in the United States exclusively dedicated to contemporary Irish arts.”

Daugherty is artistic director for the group’s theatrical arm, and this new, one-person show

by Galway native Ronán Noone, which premiered in New York in January, fit Solas Nua’s mission.

It also satisfied a desire to present a show in Daugherty’s favorite bar, Allegory in the Eaton DC hotel. Finnegan is a bartender telling a barroom tale

of robbery, betrayal and human trafficking, so it made sense for Daugherty to perform the role while serving drinks from

behind a bar. (Last year, Solas Nua presented “The Frederick Douglass Project” on a floating pier on the Anacostia River.)

The 30 ticket holders crowding the bar at each show will be able to order cocktails (without talking, via coupons). People are “looking for an experience they can’t get somewhere else,” says Daugherty, 36.

In rehearsals, Daugherty has been coping with the challenges of working in a space not designed for theater and the script’s unusual, rhyming structure.

“The irregular rhyme feels more like a conversation, more like hip-hop, lyrical without being predictable,” he says. “It’s a character I haven’t seen onstage speaking in a language I haven’t heard before.” GEOFFREY HIMES (FOR THE WASHINGTON POST)

Jenn Tisdale FESTIVAL DIRECTOR

DOWNTOWNFREDERICK.ORG

Jenn Tisdale was destined for a life of crime — or, at least, a life of obsessing about it. As a kid growing up in Crofton, Md., she watched endless hours of Court TV and “America’s Most Wanted.” She’s also a direct descendant of Henry Deringer, designer of the pistol most famously used by John Wilkes Booth to assassinate President Lincoln. “Basically, I’m true-crime royalty,” she says. “I love being part of history but would obviously prefer a less violent involvement.” Tisdale, 39, met her destiny in 2018, when she scrawled “true crime festival” on a napkin during a meeting of event production company Brightest Young Things, where she worked in marketing. Now, she directs the group’s Death Becomes Us fest, which returns to D.C. in November.

On her dream day, the Brookland resident is hot on the trail of her favorite president and D.C.’s most famous murderer.

My dream day begins with me waking up with my dog, Lorraine Bates McFly. Her name is from my favorite movie, “Back to the Future.”

I’d take her on a walk in Rock Creek Cemetery, right by my house. There are obelisks all over the place — which begs the question, is the Washington Monument a giant grave?

Then I’d go to Turkey Thicket Recreation Center to work out.

People in D.C. don’t know that there are all these little rec centers with gyms that they can use for free, with ellipticals and weights and everything.

I’d go to The Coupe for brunch.

I’d walk downtown to Ford’s Theatre and go to the basement museum and see the derringer that John Wilkes Booth used.

And I’d say, “Hey, y’all planning on giving that gun back to my family anytime soon?” They love that, when a crazy person screams, “This belongs to me!” in front of their precious artifacts. Since space and time are not limitations, I’d also see “Our American Cousin” when Lincoln was shot. I wouldn’t try to stop the assassination, though.

If there’s one thing we learned from “Back to the Future,” it’s that you don’t mess with history.

Her boarding house is now Wok and Roll, which makes me laugh so hard. So I’d go back to the present and have a little sushi, maybe do a little karaoke.

After sushi, I’d go up to Mount Pleasant to my friend’s movie theater/bar, Suns Cinema, which is generally where I go every weekend and generally where I leave my credit card every weekend. It’s truly an independent movie theater, and the bar’s really fun.

Reachable moment

The Reach campus, which opens to the public this weekend, features three sleek, multiuse pavilions.

The Kennedy Center’s ‘living theater’ makes its big debut with a 16-day bash

VENUES When Deborah Rutter became president of the Kennedy Center in 2014, she asked her new colleagues to prepare a creative brief explaining why the institute was expanding for the first time in its nearly 50-year history. In response, she was handed a piece of paper filled with numbers:

One room would be this size, another would be that size, another some other size.

“I thought, well, that’s great — now we know what the room sizes are,” recalls Rutter, who was tasked with overseeing the already-in-progress expansion when she joined the center after a decade as president of the

Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association. “But why are we building this space?”

So she told the architects that their designs were lovely, but that she couldn’t approve anything until the center figured out its goals — effectively hitting pause on the project. Then she gathered 40 colleagues, mostly

staffers who interacted with audiences by creating programs or educational activities, and asked: “What do we love about the center, what could we do better at the center, what do we need because we don’t have it now and what do we dream of in terms of what the future will be like?”

This weekend, the resulting vision comes to fruition: The Reach, a sprawling “living theater,” opens to Rutter the public on Saturday. The new venue includes three sleek, multiuse pavilions; underground classrooms and performance halls; an outdoor stage and video wall for concerts and film screenings; and a “green roof” with a gingko grove and grassy areas to relax. A pedestrian bridge over Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway connects visitors to the National Mall and other memorials, helping the somewhat secluded Kennedy Center “reach” the rest of the city.

To celebrate, the Kennedy Center is throwing a party: More than 1,000 artists will perform during a 16-day, jam-packed opening festival showcasing The Reach’s versatility. Big names like Thievery Corporation, De La Soul and Patton Oswalt are slated to perform, experts will teach DJing skills and beatboxing, and choreographer Debbie Allen will lead a National Dance Day celebration.

The festival, which kicks off Saturday, is an attention-grabbing introduction to a place Rutter hopes many will return to — even just to hang out. She describes The Reach as a home for “immersive, responsive artistic experiences,” a place that brings audiences and artists together.

Imagine watching a ballet troupe rehearse in a glass-walled studio, for example, or listening to the National Symphony Orchestra fine-tune a new piece. Or catching a performance in a 150-seat theater, rather than one of the Kennedy Center’s massive halls.

The new complex aims to deliver such intimate, behind-the-scenes experiences — as well as lectures, workshops, open-mic nights, parties and plenty of hands-on opportunities, like the arts camps scheduled to begin in 2020.

There are three studios at The Reach — J, F and K — that have floor-to-ceiling windows, so people passing by outside can observe rehearsals and

other events occurring inside.

On Oct. 7, The Reach’s first exhibition will open in Studio K, the largest of the three studios.

“Portraits of Courage,” a collection of 66 paintings by former President George W. Bush, will be on view through Nov. 15, the first time the paintings will be displayed in the area. In January, the space will transform into the Club at Studio K, a funky lounge open on weekend evenings. The programming will be different each night: Visitors might catch two jazz shows on Friday, and a comedy or spoken-word performance on Saturday.

“It’s transformative,” Andrew Lee, artistic director of DC Strings Workshop, says of the new complex. “There’s a lot of upheaval in the industry right now, and this says we matter, we’re valued and that the Kennedy Center wants to work with us and organizations like us.” DC Strings, a nonprofit that aims to bring classical music to underserved communities, will perform during the opening festival on Wednesday. Lee is particularly excited about the opportunity to host workshops and other educational activities at The Reach, especially for communities “that often don’t get invited to the Center.” “I think The Reach is going to do a lot, to help stand in the gap and provide more clarity and vision on what students can achieve [artistically] in the District,” he says.

Rutter sees The Reach as a place where community members can interact with one another — and with the creative process. She imagines passersby popping into the coffee bar or cafe (which will serve cocktails in the evening), spending a few hours reading or working on their laptops. “There aren’t many places in this city where you can reliably be at a cafe table, and at the table next to you, there are artists who just came out of one of the studios,” she says. “I want it to be a space that’s comfortable for everybody.

You don’t have to have a highpriced ticket or be dressed in a fancy outfit to come here. We want everyone to feel welcome.”

The Justice Forum lecture hall hosts workshops during the opening festival.

16 days of fun are within Reach The Reach Opening Festival is the D.C. event of late summer — an impressive smorgasbord of comedy, dance, theater, music and family activities. The Kennedy Center is distributing free timed-entry tickets for the celebration, which runs from Saturday to Sept. 22, but many popular time slots are already unavailable. Still, center president Deborah Rutter encourages those who don’t secure tickets to come anyway: Extra passes will be available day-of depending on the number of no-shows.

Having a ticket doesn’t guarantee entry to specific events, which are first-come, first-served. If you can’t get into a highdemand event, there’s still plenty to do. Pop into the Moonshot Studio for hands-on educational activities, for example, or take a turn playing the piano in River Pavilion, Rutter suggests. And mostly, she says, consider the festival an opportunity to try something new — like these four events. A.H. NSO Chamber Group Open Rehearsal

Trump … as seen on TV

DC Beer Week isn’t only about what’s on tap

Critic James Poniewozik examines how the man worked the medium

RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS)

Fun run

The festivities kick off on Sunday at 10 a.m. with a fun run from Right Proper’s Brookland facility (920 Girard St. NE) to Red Bear Brewing Company in Ivy City.

Runners get a beer at each location; same-day registration is available ($10-$25).

BOOKS James Poniewozik, television critic for The New York Times since 2015, describes his job as “kind of like a radiation cleanup guy at Chernobyl.”

“As somebody who follows TV and the media, I kind of have to put on the radiation suit and get to the source of the meltdown and absorb all of the stuff that it might be strictly healthier for people to limit their exposure to,” he says.

That was particularly true, he says, while he was writing his new book, “Audience of One: Donald Trump, Television, and the Fracturing of America.”

For his analysis of the connections between the evolution of American television and the cultural and political ascendancy of Trump, Poniewozik pored over 14 seasons of “The Apprentice” and dug through internet archives for Trump’s myriad TV interviews and other appearances.

So, is he OK? “We will have to see when the tests come back,” he laughs.

For Poniewozik, 51, the project was an extension of work he’d already been doing, at The Times and previously at Time magazine and Salon. Though much of his work involves parsing the merits of individual TV shows, the part of his job he finds most rewarding is explaining “why this stuff matters — why people care about it, how it overlaps with other stuff in people’s lives that they care about,” he says. “Here was sort of a rare opportunity to apply TV criticism directly to the real world.”

He says he was frustrated by news coverage of Trump’s candidacy and election that described him as a “real estate mogul” or a “longtime businessman.”

“He was treated as somebody to whom being a TV star was an

DC Beer Week is more than a celebration of the region’s craft beer scene — it’s also an excuse to infuse beer into all sorts of activities. Here are three from this year’s edition (Sunday to Sept. 15), where a cold one isn’t necessarily the main attraction.

interesting sidelight, ancillary to being a businessman or being a politician,” Poniewozik says.

Poniewozik “I think that’s totally backwards. It’s the main thing about him.”

The book meticulously documents the state of the television landscape in the ’80s and ’90s alongside Donald Trump’s stardom in the New York City real estate scene, which eventually transformed him into a universally recognized symbol of capitalistic success, even when his bank sheets said otherwise.

Poniewozik also draws parallels between Trump and the rise of the antihero drama on cable, the explosion of reality competition series at the turn of the century and the omnipresence of news channels vying for audiences’ attention.

From journalists like Tom

Brokaw to the rotating hosts of “ Fox & Friends,” the book argues, T r u mp to ok advantage of other people and companies’ willingness to look past the phony aspects of his personal brand. He wasn’t really a billionaire, but he played one effectively enough to remain one in the public imagination, the book posits.

Poniewozik, who will discuss “Audience of One” on Wednesday at Politics & Prose, doesn’t think individual people can necessarily be blamed for the results of perpetuating illusions of Trump’s grandeur, though.

“Looking back in retrospect, it’s not like I expect the Page Six columnist 40 years ago to have thought, ‘My God, what am I doing if I describe this kind of vain young businessman who’s

talking to me on the phone as a billionaire — am I enabling a political demagogue?’ ” he says.

Readers who feel anxious about the possibility of another Trump-like figure bending the media ecosystem to his will won’t feel entirely reassured by Poniewozik’s book — and that was intentional, he says. In preparing to write, he read some similar nonfiction books and strived to avoid the trap of what he calls a “bulls--- optimistic solution ending.”

“If you want a better politics, you have to accept that we live in a mediated society where people are moved by powerful stories and narratives,” he says. “The only answer is you have to be conscious of that and try to tell a better story.”

Rachel Monroe looks at the genre’s dark pull in ‘Savage Appetites’ BOOKS Rachel Monroe has always been drawn to the darkness of crime.

In her debut book, “Savage Appetites: Four True Stories of Women, Crime, and Obsession,” she writes about sinking into “crime funks,” poring over the accounts of the Manson murders in “Helter Skelter” and reading the Columbine killers’ journals.

Monroe says she didn’t understand why these types of stories had such a hold on her.

“I would stay up all night reading on Wikipedia, bingeing documentaries, reading message boards,” says Monroe, 36. “And that didn’t happen to me with celebrity stories or politics stories or other things that I like to read — they didn’t have that feeling of compulsion.”

Monroe, a contributing writer for The Atlantic who lives in Marfa, Texas, started working on her book as a way to explore her hunger for true crime. Then she realized that four women whose stories she had been following, some for years, shared that same interest.

“Savage Appetites” examines four main subjects: Frances Glessner L ee, who is known for her 1940s and ’50s “nutshell studies,” miniature dioramas of crime scenes that were used to teach forensics; Alisa Statman, who ingratiated herself with Sharon Tate’s surviving family in the years after the Manson murders; Lorri Davis, who married and helped free a man who was on death row for the 1993 murders of three boys in West Memphis, Ark.; and Lindsay Souvannarath, who is serving a life sentence in a Canadian prison for plotting a mass murder in 2015 with a boyfriend she met online.

As she tells these four women’s stories, Monroe weaves in her own brushes with true crime: the way the murder of a teenage girl in Monroe’s hometown of Richmond affected her, for example, and the paranoia she felt while attending Souvannarath’s sentencing in 2018.

Monroe, who will discuss “Savage Appetites” at Solid State Books on Monday, knows that true crime is entertaining, but treating

True crime and getting real

Rachel Monroe’s debut book focuses on women fascinated by true crime.

it purely as entertainment often leaves out part of the story. And the genre’s common narrative of a white, female victim ignores those who are actually the most at risk of being victimized.

“Sometimes it seems ridiculous to call true crime ‘true’ with all the distortions,” she says.

Still, Monroe doesn’t make a case for giving up true crime.

“Just like any genre, it fulfills these deep needs that we have — to learn about the full spectrum of human experience, and also to know about these really traumatic parts of life,” she says.

Instead, she recommends being a critical consumer, and asking tough questions: Is this retelling glorifying a killer?

Are some victims seen as more worthy of respect than others?

Are we feeding off their pain?

“There’s something risky in using these stories to zone out or numb ourselves in some way,” Monroe says. “Maybe that’s the answer — to not allow ourselves to go into that space of pure sensation, but to force us to remain conscious and aware of what we are consuming and why.”

The natural wonders of Bob Ross BOB ROSS INC. PHOTOS

24 paintings by the late, beloved artist get a rare, ‘Joy’-ful public showing

With his PBS series in the ‘80s and ‘90s, the late Bob Ross encouraged viewers to find the artists inside themselves.

EXHIBITS His soothing voice swaddled you like a cozy blanket.

“We don’t make mistakes, we make happy accidents,” Bob Ross calmly reassured viewers while crafting his signature landscape paintings on “The Joy of Painting,” his long-running PBS show.

Now, those “happy accidents”

that made the late artist a household name will get a rare showing in Purcellville, Va. “Happy Accidents: An Exhibit of Original Bob Ross Paintings,” opening Tuesday at the Franklin Park Arts Center, marks the largest display of the artist’s work on the East Coast. Twenty-four original paintings from Ross’ memorable show will be hung for the world to see at the center, located 50 miles from D.C. in Loudoun County.

So, how did Ross’ paintings

weekendpass end up in a small Virginia town, anyway? Turns out, they’ve been in the area for a while now — Bob Ross Inc., the company that houses his artwork and distributes his products, is based nearby in Fairfax County. The corporation’s president, Joan Kowalski, and Franklin Park Arts Center’s managing director, Elizabeth Bracey, are members of Loudoun County’s Art Advisory Committee. After learning that the Smithsonian National Museum of American History had acquired some of Ross’ works in March, Bracey asked Kowalski if she could exhibit some of Ross’ paintings at her center.

“I realized that they had never done an exhibit like this before, so this is something really tremendous,” Bracey says. “Joan was saying to me that it’s fitting to have this exhibit in a small gallery. It just fits Bob Ross.”

Despite Ross’ irrefutable influence on pop culture and his sizable cult following, both of which are still going strong 24 years

Ross preferred to paint landscapes — like “Sunset Aglow” — over people.

after his death, his creations have seldom been displayed in public. So, naturally, when free timed tickets for the exhibition went live last month, the demand was intense. Weekend passes were claimed within a couple of

weeks, and spots at the one-day painting workshops — led by a certified Bob Ross instructor — filled up in about six hours.

“When he did his classes and his TV show, he was more about helping other people realize their

SNA R K Y PU PPY

Alaska, and he was very inspired by the landscape there.”

Once the timed tickets to the exhibition are gone, that’s it — Bracey says the arts center has no intention of expanding its schedule. (There are waitlists for times that are currently at capacity.) Each timed entry will be generally limited to around 60 people to ensure that everyone gets to view Ross’ serene paintings in peace — which is most likely what the calm, cool and collected artist would have wanted.

“It’s amazing to me the emotional connection that people have with him and with the show,” Bracey says. “We’re talking about people in their 70s and 80s all the way down to teenagers and college students. I have learned even more about him through this experience myself.”

artistic potential,” Bracey says of Ross. “He didn’t really ever see himself as a famous artist, like an Andy Warhol or Monet.

So having an exhibit of his work was never something that he had wanted to do as a priority or something that he had planned.”

The arts center’s exhibition features paintings from the 1993 seasons of “The Joy of Painting.”

For each episode of his show, which originally ran from 1983 to 1994, Ross would paint his featured piece three times: The first version was done prior to the taping for Ross to use as a reference while on camera; the second was the painting Ross worked on during the taping; and the third was painted and photographed in various stages of completion for Ross’ series of instructional books. In each case, the best of the three was chosen for display.

“He loved painting nature as opposed to people,” Bracey notes about Ross’ artwork. “He was in the armed services, and was stationed or had training in

Sat. FESTIVALS

Calle Latina block party

The grand opening of La Cosecha, the long-awaited Latin American market and food hall near Union Market, comes with a free daylong block party. Genre-surfing Los Angeles band Ozomatli is the headliner but not the only attraction. The fun includes facepainting and dance classes for kids, cooking demos by La Cosecha’s chefs, pop-up shops and bars, more music and, of course, a lot of food. La Cosecha, 1280 Fourth BLUSHING WHALE FILMS

St. NE; Sat., 11 a.m.-7 p.m., free.

SUNDAY

DC State Fair Gateway DC, 2700 Martin Luther King Jr. Ave. SE; Sun., 11 a.m.-7 p.m., free.

The District hasn’t let the lack of statehood prevent it from putting on a charming state fair that celebrates the rich culture found here. D.C.’s version has grown into a big operation for its 10th year; you’ll find local vendors and food trucks alongside a pet parade and music at the event’s new location, Gateway DC, in Southeast on Sunday. There are also some new fair competitions, including one for best hot sauce, but the most fun ones are the classic live contests, with people competing in hula-hooping, limbo, sloppy Joe eating and watermelon seed spitting.

SATURDAY & SUNDAY

Gelato Festival

Jenny Lewis

City Market at O, 800 P St. NW; Sat. & Sun., 11 a.m.-7 p.m., $25 ($10 for kids 3-12, free for kids 2 and under).

St. SW; Thu., 8 p.m., $40-$70.

After making its D.C. debut last year, the international Gelato Festival returns for another celebration of the Italian dessert. The main event includes a gelato competition where you sample (and vote for) such unconventional flavors as bourbon bacon cannoli, pistachio baklava and sweet potato casserole. You can also learn how to make the stuff, play games and compete in gelato-eating contests.

MUSIC

Jenny Lewis cut her teeth in the influential indie rock group Rilo Kiley, but the singer-songwriter has now been on her own for longer than she was in that band, and her solo stuff has never sounded better. “On the Line,” Lewis’ fourth album, bursts with wonderfully lush-sounding songs about times that seem to slip away due to decisions in and out of your control. The Watson Twins, who assisted with her 2006 album “Rabbit Fur Coat,” open this concert. The Anthem, 901 Wharf

FESTIVALS

Rosslyn Jazz Fest

Houston-based The Suffers bring their “Gulf Coast soul” sound to this annual Arlington jazz fest. The day’s lineup also includes D.C. go-go musicians JoGo Project and two New Orleans acts — funk band Cha Wa and cellist Leyla McCalla — along with food trucks and a pop-up beer and wine garden. Gateway Park, 1300 Lee Highway, Arlington; Sat., 1-7 p.m., free.

Sun. FESTIVALS

Takoma Park Folk Festival

Folk music isn’t just confined to Americana. What makes the genre unique is its diversity, which the Takoma Park Folk Festival spotlights every year. Sunday’s event features over 60 musicians performing across six stages, plus food vendors, community tables, games and a craft market.

Acts include Gypsy swing band Orchester Praževica, klezmer music duo Klezcentricity and pianist Cynthia Marie.

Takoma Park Middle School, 7611 Piney Branch Road, Takoma Park, Md.; Sun., 10:30 a.m.-6:30 p.m., free.

The band is known for mixing up setlists, but given that O.A.R. hasn’t released a live album since 2012, fans can likely expect an emphasis on more recent material.

‘Testaments’ twists her ‘Tale’

BOOK REVIEW Almost 35 years after “The Handmaid’s Tale” shocked the world, Margaret Atwood has finally given birth to “The Testaments.”

This isn’t just the most anticipated novel of the year; it’s one of the most anticipated sequels of the modern age — like Harper Lee’s “Go Set a Watchman” flying in on Harry Potter’s broom.

A confluence of political and cultural forces has made “The Testaments,” out Tuesday, as vital as a baby in Gilead. First, the election of President Trump cattle-prodded “The Handmaid’s Tale” back up the best-seller list.

Then Hulu’s adaptation starring Elisabeth Moss inspired millions more to care about the plight of the fertile few. Red-cloaked Handmaids have since swarmed capitols across the country.

Fans of Atwood’s dystopian classic will remember that Offred, the narrator of “The Handmaid’s Tale,” concluded her secret testimony by acknowledging, “Whether this is my end or a new beginning I have no way of knowing.”

Now we know.

“The Testaments” opens in Gilead about 15 years after “The Handmaid’s Tale,” but it’s an entirely different novel in form and tone. Inevitably, the details are less shocking — at least in part because the horrors of Gilead’s

Margaret Atwood’s “The Testaments” features three different narrators.

male-centered theocracy are already so well known.

Atwood responds to the challenge of that familiarity by giving us the narrator we least expect: Aunt Lydia. It’s a brilliant strategic move that turns the world of Gilead inside out. In “The Handmaid’s Tale,” Aunt Lydia is the orthodox teacher whose platitudes and instructions cycle through Offred’s mind. But in “The Testaments,” Aunt Lydia speaks directly to us in all her conflicted complexity. She has become the supreme matriarch

Blessed be Hulu’s fruit MGM and Hulu will develop a screen version of “The Testaments.” Hulu, home to “The Handmaid’s Tale” series, and MGM are in discussions with showrunner Bruce Miller about how the sequel can become “an important extension” to his Emmywinning drama, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Hulu’s series, which has been renewed for Season 4, has already expanded beyond the book’s source material. (EXPRESS)

of this masculine cult. As a living legend, the very model of moral perfection and feminine wisdom, she enjoys a special position of extraordinary power — and she knows just

how precarious that is.

“Only dead people are allowed to have statues,” she begins, “but I have been given one while still alive. Already I am petrified.”

That little pun is typical of Aunt Lydia’s wry wit, which endows “The Testaments” with far more humor than “The Handmaid’s Tale” or its grim TV adaptation. This Aunt Lydia is publicly devout but privately defiant.

But Aunt Lydia is not the only narrator of “The Testaments.”

Interlaced among her journal entries are the testimonies of two young women: one raised in Gilead, the other in Canada. Their mysterious identities fuel much of the story’s suspense — and electrify the novel with an extra dose of melodrama. Together, this trio of voices allows Atwood to include broader details about how other countries respond to the Republic of Gilead.

“The Handmaid’s Tale” famously ends with the line, “Any questions?” This new story is full of revealing backstories, but readers hoping for a complementary classic of dystopian literature may be disappointed. “The Testaments” is not nearly the devastating satire of political and theological misogyny that “The Handmaid’s Tale” is. Atwood is far more focused on creating a brisk thriller here.

But that’s not a fair complaint.

Although the story of Gilead has long been called to the service of this or that contemporary cause, it remains entirely Atwood’s possession. RON CHARLES (THE WASHINGTON POST)

‘Wu-Tang’ tells a sprawling American story STREAMING RZA could have created a Wu-Tang Clan biopic like the NWA-based “Straight Outta Compton” film, but felt the ninemember rap group needed more room to tell their story.

So, the Wu-Tang mastermind and producer went to Hulu to make the drama series “Wu-Tang: An American Saga,” which premiered Wednesday.

“The Wu-Tang story is vast and you really couldn’t contain it in a two- or three-hour movie,” says RZA, above, who created the series with screenwriter Alex Tse. Wu-Tang went from being a group of local rappers in Staten Island, N.Y., to one of the most prominent hip-hop troupes after releasing the critically acclaimed 1993 debut “Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers).” The series stars Shameik Moore as Raekwon, Ashton Sanders as RZA and rappers Dave East and TJ Atoms as Method Man and O.D.B, respectively.

RZA says the template for the 10-episode series was inspired by the books he co-wrote, “The Wu-Tang Manual” and “Tao of Wu.” Tse notes that Wu-Tang built a global brand that’s still relevant.

“It’s one of the most unusual and unlikely American success stories, ever,” Tse says. “It couldn’t really happen anywhere else. I don’t think nine dudes from the U.K. could come together and call themselves Wu-Tang. That’s the only stuff that happens in America.”

FEUDS

Cardi makes kids’ dreams come true

Brad gives AA a free commercial

AP AND GETTY IMAGES

RECOVERY

Brad Pitt quit drinking after Angelina Jolie filed for divorce in 2016, the star told The New York Times in a profile published Wednesday. “I had taken things as far as I could take it, so I removed my drinking privileges,” the 55-year-old actor said.

Pitt spent a year and a half in Alcoholics Anonymous, and found the men in his group to be “open and honest in a way I have never heard,” he said.

Cardi B is feuding with a group of 10-year-old rappers over an Instagram diss track, Page Six reported. The children — quadruplets from Westchester County, N.Y., who call themselves Zn8tion — posted a diss track last month, with lyrics like: “They could fix your teeth but they couldn’t fix your face” and “I don’t know what’s faker, your life or your butt.” Cardi hit back with an Instagram Story rant on Monday about “little f---ing white boys.” “Go drink your motherf---ing milk,” the 26-year-old said. One of the brothers, who goes

by Hollywood, told Page Six that Cardi’s response “made us feel like we’d done our job.” (EXPRESS)

HOME INVASIONS

Man misunderstands the meaning of ‘polite’ Police say a man who broke into Taylor Swift’s beachfront mansion in Rhode Island on Friday took his shoes off because he wanted to be polite. When police found Richard Joseph McEwan, 26, in Swift’s home, he wasn’t wearing shoes. McEwan told police he was always taught to take his shoes off when entering someone’s home, to be polite. (AP)

Chrissy finally reveals her deepest, darkest fear

Jonah to marry woman no one has heard of

Chrissy Teigen tweeted Monday that she got a new couch, but is in “permanent fear” of messing it up. “It looks a lot like the old unscary couch, but the fabric is more unforgiving,” Teigen tweeted.

“It doesn’t even like the sheer impact of a butt.” Her husband, John Legend, tweeted back that she could “join the grandmas” by covering it in plastic. (EXPRESS)

Jonah is happy there are no photos of his fiancee on Getty Images.

Jonah Hill and his girlfriend, Gianna Santos, are engaged, Page Six reported Tuesday.

Hill, 35, has been linked to Santos since last summer.

Santos, 30, is a content manager at beauty startup company Violet Grey. The two were spotted out in New York City together on Monday. Variety also reported this week that the 35-year-old actor recently bought a $6.77 million home in Santa Monica, Calif. (EXPRESS)
