Suspicious white powder-filled letter sent to Meghan Markle, Prince Harry
Meghan Markle's getting a taste of the dark side of life in the royal family. London's Metropolitan Police counter-terrorism were called in to examine a piece of mail addressed to Meghan and her fiance, Prince Harry, at Kensington Palace that contained a suspicious white powder. The London Evening Standard reports the letter, which was received on Feb. 12 and sent to St. James' Palace to be sorted before it was intercepted, also contained "a racist message." A subsequent security scare proved unnecessary, as the powder turned out to be "harmless," according to the Standard. Police are reportedly still investigating the possibility that the letter was connected to a white powder-filled package that was sent on Feb. 13 to the office of Home Secretary Amber Rudd in Parliament.

Oprah Winfrey met Leonardo DiCaprio, had no idea who he was
Even Oprah Winfrey suffers the occasional bout of face blindness. As she recently recalled on "Ellen," Oprah ran into an actor she couldn't quite place at Ellen DeGeneres' A-lister-stuffed 60th birthday bash earlier this month. "This guy comes back, I know it's somebody, I know it's somebody … Who is it? Is it Justin Timberlake? I don't think it's Justin Timberlake," Oprah said on the show, recounting her confusion (via Vulture). Soon, another guest started chatting up the unidentifiable star, dressed in his usual baseball cap attire. "The Weeknd says to him, 'Hey man, I really loved the film you did,'" Oprah continued. "He says, 'No, that wasn't a good film for me, it wasn't my favorite film.'" Cue Oprah's a-ha moment: The "Wrinkle in Time" star thought to ask the vaguely recognizable guy which of his movies he thought was the best. "The Aviator," he said, still standing beside The Weeknd. And that, ladies in gentlemen, is what happens when Leonardo DiCaprio shows up to a party without a model on his arm.

Now, Natalie's opening up about what happened when she and Millie finally met in person at the Golden Globes in January. "She came up to me and was like, 'People keep telling me I look like the kid version of you!" Natalie recalls in a video tweeted out by MTV this week. "I was so flattered because she's absolutely adorable and so talented. I'm like, 'That is very nice, but I think you're your own magical person,'" Natalie said. "I see that there's something there, but I also find her much more magical than I see myself," the actress added. "She's really wonderful." The feeling is apparently mutual.

Kathy Griffin denied restraining order against neighbor
A judge has dismissed Kathy Griffin's request for a restraining order against her neighbor, Jeffrey Mezger. According to TMZ, the comic was hoping to get the court to protect her and her boyfriend, Randy Bick, from the neighbor, whom she sees as a threat and who is reportedly on tape telling Randy to "go f—" himself. Recorded by Kathy's security camera, the tape ultimately didn't help Kathy and Randy's cause. In addition to denying them a restraining order against Jeffrey, the judge ruled Kathy may no longer use one of her security cameras to record audio — only video. The recording change comes after Jeffrey got a temporary restraining order against Kathy to keep her from recording him.
Chevy Chase says he was kicked to the ground after being cut off by motorist
A driver Chevy Chase nearly had a fender bender with ended up with citation for second degree harassment with physical contact earlier this month after what Chvy said was an attempt to talk to the New York motorist about his "reckless driving" ended with the actor getting kicked to the ground. According to TMZ, Chevy told police a black pickup truck cut him off while he was driving on the Tappan Zee Bridge on Feb. 9 when a black pickup cut him off. He reportedly thought the truck had hit his car and wanted to speak to the driver, so he flashed his high beams at the truck and followed it. After the other driver pulled over, Chevy discovered neither car was damaged. He still went over to talk to the four people in the truck, though. When someone in the truck flipped him off, Chevy reportedly responded by saying, "If I were a lot younger I'd bust your nose." That's when one of the people reportedly got out and kicked Chevy in the shoulder, knocking him down. Although the driver claimed Chevy was the first to get physical — and that the person accused of kicking the actor was "blocking Chevy's fist with his foot," the police issued the citation for the person who allegedly kicked Chevy.

In the wake of Donald Trump's controversial suggestion that "adept teachers with military or special training experience" should be armed in schools to deter mass shootings, Mark Ruffalo is speaking out about the specific gun many believe have made such massacres increasingly common. "Since we have made AR15s easier to buy we have seen more mass shootings. More guns, more easily had = more mass murders," Mark tweeted this week. "Australia outlawed this type of gun, never happened again. Less guns = less mass murder. It's simple. Putting more guns in schools will = more shootings."
