Ava DuVernay, Reese Witherspoon, Geena Davis and Kerry Washington are among the Hollywood figures teaming up to mark the one-year anniversary of Time's Up with a celebrity auction to benefit the group's legal fund.

The Time's Up campaign kicked off at the Golden Globes in January. To date, the legal fund has raised more than $22 million.

NEW YORK (AP) — Tyler Hilton is an actor who is also a musician and he knows what you're probably thinking: Do we really need another actor who is also a musician?

"If it wasn't me and I heard someone's like, 'Oh you should check out this record, this guy's an actor,' I'd be like, 'Doesn't sound that cool,'" Hilton said. "I don't necessarily want to hear music from a guy who's an actor. Actors don't seem that interesting to me as a musician. And yet that's just the deal."

NEW YORK (AP) — Oprah Winfrey and Reese Witherspoon will be among the special guests when Michelle Obama goes on tour for her memoir "Becoming."

Others appearing with the former first lady will include Sarah Jessica Parker, Michele Norris and former White House aide Valerie Jarrett. The announcement was made by Live Nation and Crown Publishing on Tuesday.

NEW YORK (AP) — Jimmy Fallon remembers a summer a few years back when it seemed everybody was reading "Gone Girl" by Gillian Flynn.

"Everyone had that book. If we had people over, or went on vacation poolside, people had that book wrinkled and curled up. I read it with my wife and we read every chapter together and we'd be like, '(Gasps) This is great!' It was the world's smallest book club," he laughed.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Reese Witherspoon confirms there will be a "Legally Blonde 3."

The Latest on International Women's Day:

"Black Panther" star Danai Gurira says the hit movie is showing the world that women and men "can work shoulder to shoulder" and their abilities "are equally valued in a society."

Gurira spoke at an event marking International Women's Day on Thursday at U.N. headquarters in New York.

She says the movie has made "a massive splash" because such a representation of powerful women is rarely seen.

Go ahead, pick your favorite young, villain-vanquishing fantasy heroine. Meg Murry probably came first.

Katniss Everdeen? She arrived in 2001. Hermione Granger? That was 1997. Elphaba, the green girl from "Wicked"? 2003. But Meg, the reluctant, bespectacled heroine of Madeleine L'Engle's classic "A Wrinkle in Time," has been with us, and on the shelves of middle-schoolers, since 1962.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — "A Wrinkle in Time" director Ava DuVernay insists she didn't consciously assemble three of the entertainment industry's most successful and entrepreneurial women to play the celestial, all-knowing "Mrs." characters in Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon and Mindy Kaling.

"I guess I'm attracted to that kind of energy: Like-minded take over the world-ness," DuVernay said.
