The recent surge in search interest for “Sharon Tate” can be attributed to Jennifer Lawrence’s comments regarding her lost role in a Quentin Tarantino movie, where she was reportedly told she was “not pretty enough” for the part of Tate. This revelation, made public through multiple news outlets, has rekindled interest in the iconic figure whose tragic story has been a topic of fascination in popular culture.
The explicit mention of Sharon Tate in the context of a well-known actress such as Jennifer Lawrence has drawn significant attention. This connection has likely prompted fans and the general public to seek more information about Tate herself, her life, and her legacy, as they navigate the implications of Lawrence’s remarks.
As news articles detail Lawrence’s experience and how it relates to Tate, they serve as a catalyst for increased searches. The juxtaposition of modern beauty standards with Tate’s historical significance engages audiences, leading them to further explore the life and impact of the actress who became a symbol of tragedy in Hollywood.

Internet Reacts
T
Dave Gorman and Mel Giedroyc have already appeared.
B
That’s what would make them getting on again so surprising
G
Precisely.
C
You’ve got 2 people on your list who have been on TM already. Fix your list. You have 1 minute. Your time starts now.
B
They didn’t say fastest wins!! It’s a two prong task!!!!
C
After the list is fixed, Alex hands you another task: Without consulting any references, write the names of the 100 contestants to appear in the first 20 regular series. Most contestants whose first and last names are correctly spelled wins. You have 5 minutes. Your time starts now.
L
A three part task incoming?!
G
Not sure how they slipped through the net. Fixed!
O
You were right to put 💀 next to Gervais and Corden. Both very thin-skinned and couldn’t handle not being centre of attention the whole time.
O
honestly? I feel similarly about Vic Reeves re disliking not being the centre of attention. every time I’ve seen him on a panel show he interrupts and shouts over other people and it feels very ungracious. I’m too young to be familiar enough with his work to have a more concrete opinion of him but his appearances on other shows haven’t made me that eager to seek him out – which is a shame because I love Bob.
W
Jim Moir has retired the Vic Reeves persona as well as just generally retired.
H
Taskmaster is very supportive of trans people, so Gervais (and Wehn) would absolutely shock me. Anyone else on this list anti-trans?
G
Ayoade (in as much as he has publicly supported Graham Linehan).
S
He has? All I can see is that Ayoade essentially said Linehan’s book was well written: >Graham Linehan has long been one of my favourite writers – and this book shows that his brilliance in prose is the equal to his brilliance as a screenwriter. It unfolds with the urgency of a Sam Fuller film: that of a man who has been through something that few have experienced but has managed to return, undaunted, to tell us the tale. I can’t find anything that suggests Ayoade supports the views of Linehan – which, honestly, strike me as obsessive at this stage – but i’m prepared to be shown I’m wrong.
K
Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are both in JKR’s new Harry Potter thing, and Pegg also voiced something in the game about the definitely-not-Jews goblins. Devastating, because the Cornetto trilogy is great, and Hot Fuzz specifically took over my brain.
C
You understand that not cancelling someone for their beliefs doesn’t mean you agree with those beliefs right? No need to be devastated unless they come out and stand with JK or some such nonsense.
D
If the person openly states that any interaction with the work is seen as endorsement of their views, deciding to work with them should be seen as endorsement too
S
Sorry, but I don’t see how Pegg/Frost starring in the remake means they are anti-trans. Nor the children cast. Nor the producers or directors. Nor the majority of the many millions who will watch it. Rowling may not be a great person, but I’ll read HP to/with my children, watch the movies, and also teach them to be kind.
C
Same feeling about Jimmy Carr
C
Dave Gorman was in series 3 Kathy Burke has said she doesn’t want to do it because she enjoys the show too much as a fan
C
David Mitchell has also said he doesn’t want to do it
S
I think you’re a bit fast and loose with the word legend.
G
I had it as “Golden oldies” originally but didn’t want to give anyone their pension book prematurely.
M
Alisdair Beckett-King feels like one that’s inevitably going to happen.
C
I would love him to be on there
C
He’s top of my list.
P
Peter Serafinowicz.
D
To be quite honest, I don’t think that’s any of your business.
G
Abdicate
B
Could we have a husband and wife team and throw Sarah Alexander into the mix
P
They split up I believe.
D
He implied he’s up for it on House of Games
I
Ed Byrne!!?!! C’mon. He’s got to be on the list.
M
Was an interview a couple of years back where he said he’s very interested but realises he’s a long way down the list.
G
I saw his show last year and he basically said they’ll never run out of options for the middle-aged white man category
F
I mean he’s not wrong, but at the same time I think he’s someone a lot of people would want to see on there. So his time might come sooner than he thinks.
I
David Mitchell has said in multiple interviews that he definitely isn’t going to do it, and he’s still on the list. Richard Ayoade too for different reasons.
I
I really want Louis Theroux to be on a full series as a Richard Osman-type choice.
F
I’d love him on a full series but I think NYT is more realistic.
P
Holly Walsh, Tony Hawks, Josie Lawrence, Kevin Eldon, Paul Putner, Paul Kaye, Kevin Bridges, Finlay Christie
O
I was skimming and read Tony Hawk (the American skateboarder) and now I really want Tony Hawk to be on Taskmaster. The way he shows up in the most random side quests, not to mention his newly-discovered connection to Dropout, it’s not completely out of the realm of possibility
K
I would love Holly Walsh on the show.
B
Josie Lawrence world be amazing. Her performances on whose line are legendary
W
I cannot fathom why people think Jimmy Carr would ever go from hosting everything under the sun to being a guest on Taskmaster, it ain’t happening.
H
He’s one of the people who would make me stop watching it, so good
I
He’s said he wouldn’t do it bc they don’t pay enough.
W
True, but the two are connected.
I
Very true. He’s all about the hustle
P
i.e. the greed
H
Evade the most taxes before the deadline to file, your time starts now.
