"A world champion in 1986 and a bronze Olympic medalist in 1988, Dr. Debi Thomas was once one of the most successful and influential ice skaters in U.S. history, but today she's struggling financially."

After her golden years as an Olympic darling, Dr. Thomas went on to graduate from Stanford and become an orthopedic surgeon. But when she shifted from working in a hospital to private practice, her world fell apart.

"After only two years of private practice, while also going through a divorce, I managed to lose my entire nest egg," Dr. Thomas says in the video.

On Nov. 7, Dr. Thomas will be featured on OWN's Iyanla: Fix My Life, where spiritual coach Iyanla Vanzant confronts Dr. Thomas about her struggles."

"Her hard truths are that there is possibly some mental and emotional imbalances that have never been addressed," Vanzant tells ET.

Writer, director, producer, humanitarian, actress and all around flaw-free goddess Angelina Jolie-Pitt was honored last night with the WSJ Magazine’s 2015 Entertainment/Film Innovator award.

She and Brad attended the event wearing matching black colored outfits. (shallow note: I’m pretty sure Angelina wore that same dress back in 2008, at the Curious Case of Benjamin Button premier in LA. Bless her humble heart <3)

There's a very insightful article from the WSJ which covers her past work as director/actress, her humanitarian work and her personal decision regarding health and family, among other topics. Some excerpts:

About the process of writing the BTS script:
Jolie- Pitt wrote the script, her first, not long after her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, died in 2007. “I didn’t really know if I could make film and I didn’t think I could write film, so I wrote with a certain amount of freedom,” she says. “I gave myself the task that it would be about grief and how different people react to and process it.” In one scene, the local barkeep [...] talks to Pitt’s character, who is trying to restart a foundering writing career, about forcing himself to love his terminally ill wife enough to let her go. “That’s me speaking about my mother,” Jolie Pitt says. “I think maybe his character came from the purest place inside me.”

Brad on being directed by a woman:
For Pitt, By the Sea marked the first time he’d been directed by a woman, let alone his own wife, but he professes not to see the difference. The main thing, he says, is that the director has “the reins on the story and taste in the telling” so that the actors have “freedom to explore.” In his case, he adds, “My director has an elegant intuition for character. And anyway, I trust her with my life.”

Producer Graham King on Jolie’s professional approach:
Jolie Pitt’s attention to detail extends well beyond wardrobe. When she first approached him [King] about In the Land of Blood and Honey, she was “extraordinarily well prepared,” he says. “She turned up in my office with the location, photos, storyboards, casting information. The train was leaving the station. When she said, ‘I’d love for you to produce this movie,’ I was already hooked.” He also came to admire her “hands-on” approach. “Whether it’s interviews, photo shoots or directing films, she gets involved herself,” he says. “Angie does not send people into meetings. There’s no manager or agent, no PR. When I first met her I couldn’t believe how accessible she was.”

On how she sees the media's shallow reports about her:
No matter how many camps she visits, Jolie Pitt still gets plenty of reminders and questions about more trivial matters—everything from that vial of ex-husband Billy Bob Thornton’s blood around her neck (really just a smudge on a locket) to her weight (if the tabloids have it right, she’s so skinny she’s on her deathbed pretty much always). Asked if she’s sick of the dredging of old issues and made-up new ones, she says, simply, “I don’t mind. I mean, I think you just have to look at whether or not you can still be effective with what you want to do. And if anything gets in the way of that, then you have a problem. But I don’t.”

-John Leguizamo said he doesn't watch SNL anymore. "I find it hurtful and insulting and you’re celebrating somebody who has said some horrible things. I find it unacceptable. I will not watch," he said.

ONTD Original: 6 Black Actors Who Can Take The Oscar Next Year

November 5, 2015, 8:33 pm

≫ Next: New Real Housewives city coming soon.

≪ Previous: Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald Welcome Baby

Next years Oscars may not be that much different than this years with their nominees as potential nominees seem more scarce than last years potentials. However, this new award race is still very much up in the air as several categories at this point have no front runners and the race for Best Leading Actor, in particular, is very much wide open.

Here's a list of potential victors already on the academy's radar, and some long shots we'd like the academy to take a look at:

1. Will Smith (Concussion)

The hype is very much there for Will, and outside of ONTD there are people in the industry that are looking at this film and Will's performance. This film has the potential to have a great deal of buzz and controversy given the subject matter, and although there have been screenings, it's still up in the air how well this film was executed as no information from those screenings have leaked.

Given Will's star power, the importance of this subject, and the potential for box office success. This film definitely has Will standing out for a nomination if not victory, similar to that of Sandra Bullock for The Blind Side.

Trailer:

2. Samuel L Jackson (The Hateful 8)

The buzz, the hype and the overdue factor is definitely at play here for SLJ. The question here is whether he's going Lead or Supporting. Honestly I think he has an equal amount a shot of winning going either way. Now if this film bombs and his reviews aren't that great, I could easily see his campaign crashing (a la Fassbender)

Trailer:

3. Abraham Attah (Beast Of No Nation)

He is very much the lead of this film. He's in mostly every shot as it's his perspective, he also narrates the film. He has the buzz and the praise with people who'd very much like to see him nominated. Unfortunately for him, this is uncharted waters with streaming service Netflix... Plus he's very young which in of itself is rare. However, his performance is certainly memorable and important and should stand out on it's own. Hopefully Netflix improves their campaign skills and Attah get's at least a nomination.

Trailer:

4. Michael B Jordan (Creed)

The academy loves a box office smash and this has some potential to be one. The trailer was received well and there are some small rumblings about Stallone. Michael B Jordan has been on the academy's radar with Fruitvale Station, unfortunately it was released way too early in the year to sustain buzz. If Jordan's performance is received well, a November release with potential box office success could definitely get his name thrown in the nominee shortlist. Bonus It couldn't be any worse than Southpaw.

Trailer:

5. & 6. O'Shea Jackson, Jr. And Corey Hawkins (Straight Outta Compton)

Box Office Hit, great reviews and relevant to what's going on in the US. This should be Univeral's top priority as far as campaigning goes. They could probably try and split these two performers up with one in lead and one in supporting but let's not advocate for category fraud.
