7:01 pm
this is entertainment tonight tonight. "e.t." spent nearly four decades with florence henderson. tonight, almost unforgettable mom, remembering mrs. brady. >> we are the only show with three of her brady kids, of starting with marsha, maureen mccormick. >> here's the story of a tv icon who is part of all of our family. >> what was your immediate reaction when you heard the news? >> just total disbelief. just total disbelief. i had just been with her. i had just seen her. i think everyone was shocked. >> maureen fought back tears this morning remembering the of woman who played her tv mom. and became one of her best friends. florence was even texting her love as she competed on "dancing with the stars." >> she said, hi, sweet maureen. i got so many calls and messages saying how wonderful you were last night. and you were. thanks so much for dinner. >> and her actual very last television performance was for you. on "dancing with the stars." where she came out and said,
7:02 pm
marsha, marsha, marsha! what was that moment like? >> it was amazing. it was so great to be with her. >> i'm so proud of you. >> and then just one week ago she was in the audience for the show's finale. three days later on thanksgiving she passed away at cedars-sinai medical center. the cause of death was heart failure. no word yet on funeral plans. we showed maureen the last interview with florence. >> what were you feeling then? >> well, you know, i know what maureen's life has been like, and all she's been through. and i still feel like she's mine. and so i love her very much. >> i'm hers, she's mine. how lucky, how lucky i am. how lucky we all are. florence's heart was so good. you know?
7:03 pm
it's so funny, because, yeah, she played this mother that, you know, many people joke about, and say, oh, it's so sweet and everything. but you no what? she was that sweet. she really was. >> she was a lovely lady they sing about in the brady song. >> she was the loveliest of ladies. >> if you could say anything to florence right now, what would it be? >> thank you. thank you. of much love you forever. >> maureen certainly isn't the only brady kid feeling the loss. >> i think it's important to know that many people share this loss. she will be remembered, she'll be loved for a long time. >> barry williams who played greg also emotional and christopher knight who played peter broke down. >> regrets, you know. of just -- >> go ahead and take a second.
7:04 pm
>> someone i could have spent more time with. it's a huge shock to everyone. we all lost her. not just myself. we all had her as a representative of mom. and i had her kind of as my mom. both died on the same day. my mom died 12 years earlier on the same date. we lean on each other right now. it's very challenging, again, because it's still fresh and so unexpected. from the time that i met her, i had a great affinity for her. and then an attraction to her. she's played so many different roles in my life, as a mother, as a professional, as a mentor. and she was inspiring to me as well. >> barry has been open about the crush he had on his tv mom. florence was 36, barry 15. >> as a teenager growing up, i think she knew that i had a crush on her. and i think that was kind of
7:05 pm
amusing. and we went out to dinner one night to talk about music and that side of show business. so i used that as an excuse to pick her up in the car and take her out and try to steal a kiss. which i did. >> she's the kind of mom you want. she had a very important role in my life, and it's a good deal of who i am because of her. >> it will be quite awhile before it processes. >> for so many of us. we'll take you back to the brady reunion show with her tv husband, and you can't forget about alice. that's all about 15 minutes away. it was a wild and lucrative thanksgiving weekend for mariah carey. wait until you hear how much she was paid for this performance in hawaii where she was joined by her ex, nick cannon. and, oh, yes, that backup dancer. minimum rate?
7:06 pm
$1 million. and that's just for one or two songs. so you can imagine the full 85-concert was -- that also comes with mariah's bryan tanaka. all shirtless and doing a sexy backup dance. offstage, the 33-year-old was conveniently at the same hotel with mariah and her entourage. which also included ex nick cannon and the twins. so mimi has her supportive ex on one side, her dancer on the other. plus a little scandal in between. but what about billionaire james packer and that $50 million inconvenience fee she's charging him? >> why do you think you're charging an inconvenience fee? >> we deserve more than that. we deserve everything. >> a source close to mariah are
7:07 pm
saying negotiations are, quote, at a stand still. as for who gets the engagement ring? the source told us, quote, they're leaving that alone for now. >> we get to see in the first episode you in your gorgeous wedding dress. how emotional is that for you? >> look, you just have to focus on whatever you're focusing on and keep it moving. >> i would call that my monday motivation. keep it moving. >> while mariah spent thanksgiving weekend on stage, another superstar kanye west remained hospitalized. michelle? >> you know, a week ago today kim's husband was rushed to get medical help. there are alarming reports about his mental condition today. >> is kanye okay? >> yesterday a car that we're told was carrying kim kardashian was seen leaving ucla medical center. it's our first sighting since a source close to kanye said he was admitted for exhaustion. but another source claimed it was a, quote, mental breakdown.
7:08 pm
a source tells "e.t." kim spent thanksgiving with kanye at the hospital. and later joined her family at kylie jenner's home. of the source said kim had been by kanye's side 24/7. they claim kanye is suffering from paranoia, our source agreed, labeling it severe. quote, he was thinking that people were out to kill him. he was not speaking correctly. it was gibberish. on his most recent album, west raps about the anti-depressant lexapro used to treat anxiety. he was hospitalized just two days after going on a paranoid rant over many topics, including his friend, beyonce and jay-z. >> i've been sent here to give you my truth. even at the risk of my own life. jay-z, just call me. >> yesterday while out to lunch in malibu, beyonce and jay-z ignored the kanye question.
7:09 pm
>> have you spoken to kanye west? >> while our source tells us that it affected the whole family, but it seemed to have affected kanye the most. we've also been on royal watch this thanksgiving weekend, because meghan and prince harry are on the move. there are reports the new romance has led to a rift between harry and his brother, william. prince harry's official two-week tour of the caribbean continued today with a stop at grenada. and while he's on duty, meghan is enjoying some down time. on friday, the "suits" star was all smiles at dinner, posing for a pic with a "quantico" star. then yesterday the actress got into will holiday spirit by trimming a tree with close friends. prince william is shooting down reports he disapproved of a statement released by harry defending meghan from the media.
7:10 pm
a spokesperson for kensington palace said the duke supports the need to support those closest to him. of inside the "dancing" pro's wedding. the details on the bride's gown. secrets from the set of the new "hairspray" live. so many divas. so many tears. >> we cried a hundred times today. >> what dolly parton is telling "e.t." about her duee with goddaughter miley. and kevin's heavenly plane trip to paris with victoria secret models turned flight attendants. hey, what could go wrong?
7:11 pm
c'mohappy birthday! i survived a heart attack. i'm doing all i can to keep from having another one. and i'm taking brilinta. for people who've been hospitalized for a heart attack. i take brilinta with a baby aspirin. no more than one hundred milligrams as it affects how well it works. brilinta helps keep my platelets from sticking together and forming a clot.
7:12 pm
brilinta reduced the chance of another heart attack. or dying from one. it worked better than plavix. >>don't stop taking brilinta without talking to your doctor since stopping it too soon increases your risk of clots in your stent, heart attack, stroke, and even death. brilinta may cause bruising or bleeding more easily, or serious, sometimes fatal bleeding. don't take brilinta if you have bleeding, like stomach ulcers, a history of bleeding in the brain, or severe liver problems. tell your doctor about bleeding, new or unexpected shortness of breath, any planned surgery, and all medicines you take. >>talk to your doctor about brilinta. i'm doing all i can. that includes brilinta. if you can't afford your medication, astra zeneca may be able to help.
