Hollywood Minute: Keith Richards honored by Connecticut government

CNN- Legendary rocker and longtime Connecticut resident Keith Richards was honored this week by Governor Ned Lamont, receiving the inaugural Connecticut Governor’s Award for Excellence for his contributions to the state’s cultural and civic life. The Rolling Stones guitarist also received the “Key to the State”, a moment that gave fans a sense of true “Satisfaction.” In accepting the honor, Richards, known for both his musical legacy and wry humor, expressed his appreciation for his home state. “I’d like to say thank you to you all, and thank you to the state of Connecticut,” said Richards.

Meanwhile, in the world of film, writer-director Paul W.S. Anderson introduced a surprising co-star in his new fantasy adventure “In the Lost Lands”—a two-headed snake that actor Dave Bautista found particularly delightful. “I’m sorry, I’m dancing around this question because I don’t want to give anything away, but we really wanted to overstate my relationship and my bond with this snake,” Bautista explained. “It was very important to Paul. And I just loved it, because I loved that Boyce’s best friend in the world would be a two-headed snake.”
