This week’s new entertainment releases include a Sturgill Simpson's concept album called “The Ballad of Dood & Juanita” and TikTok star Addison Rae making her acting debut in a gender-flipped remake of the 1999 Freddie Prinze Jr and Rachael Leigh Cook teen comedy “She’s All That.”.

And a lot of people still dont know me as a stand-up, even though thats how I got my start, and that how Issa would see me performing or hosting different things. I love interacting with my audience, says the comic, who will be headlining her own night at the White Oak Music Hall on January 16. People grow up, and think different things, and people are able to finally have difficult situations. This is a little too real and I dont know if I can address it on the show, because I dont know if I can address it in my real life! [I have] my own show that Im developing, Orji says, a different show about the African experience and that first generation immigrant experience.
