Jenna Ortega's Wikipedia article: "She began her career as a child and received recognition for her role as a younger version of Jane in The CW comedy-drama series Jane the Virgin." Me, who watched all of Jane the Virgin, and also watched Jenna Ortega mostly in horror films like X, and never ever made the connection: Wait, WHAT!?

Francisco San Martin, Actor from Days of Our Lives and Jane the Virgin, Dies at 39

The entertainment world mourns the loss of Francisco San Martin, known for his roles on Days of Our Lives, The Bold and the Beautiful, and Jane the Virgin. The 39-year-old actor was found dead at his Los Angeles home.

Born in Mallorca, Spain, and raised in Montana, Francisco brought charisma to every role, including Dario Hernandez in Days of Our Lives and telenovela star Fabian Regalo del Cielo in Jane the Virgin. His passing is a heartbreaking reminder of the importance of mental health awareness.

Let’s remember Francisco for his talent, his vibrant energy, and the joy he brought to so many through his performances.

i'll be real, the justin baldoni thing is still such a shock to me and not for the reasons you'd expect. i know people don't really know who he is outside of ISWU/this drama, but i knew him from yearssss ago from jane the virgin and remember looking at his socials and seeing him talking about undoing toxic masculinity and stuff and i literally always thought, wow, he's this extremely conventionally attractive man with a successful (?) career, and he's a settled-down family guy when frankly doesn't have to be, and he's really making the effort to undo his own internalized misogyny and be a healthy person who embraces his emotions. good on him, i really wish more men were like that (!!!!!).

so frankly i'm kind of still...gobsmacked, because unlike a lot of people, i had a pre-existing bias in favor of him, specifically for being the kind of person who would definitely not act this way. like, truly the last person i would suspect. it was easy to believe that he was the good guy and blake lively sucked because...i previously knew justin baldoni as someone who did not suck and appeared to be making efforts to not suck, but specifically to not suck as a man in a man's world. the whole "he cares about the deeper message about domestic violence of the movie" was not hard to believe if you knew his previous track record. it didn't feel like something manufactured as part of the plot to take down blake lively.

so, insanity. the implications are....astounding. it's giving "chris d'elia family guy image" except with d'elia, that online image was curated intentionally in response to being cancelled. justin baldoni had this image before all this. i can't really wrap my head around the whys of that. and the hows. truly wild.
