Leslie Odom, Jr. has revealed that he’s in isolation after his on-air appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

The 39-year-old Tony winner is taking precautions after he appeared on the talk show and after host Ellen revealed she had tested positive for coronavirus.

Now, Leslie is in quarantine away from his pregnant wife, Nicolette Robinson, and their daughter, Lucy.

“First and foremost, I hope Ellen is well, I haven’t spoken to her, obviously I hope she’s doing okay,” he told hosts on Today this morning (December 17).

He added that he and his family are “getting our tests every day for the next 10 days, and quarantining from each other” as he looks out for Nicolette, who is pregnant with their second child.

“The virus can affect pregnant ladies differently, so anywhere, we’re doing our best,” Leslie said. “I’ve got my mask in the house. You know, I’m double-masking in the house.”

Leslie and Nicolette revealed they were expecting a second baby last month.

Kate Hudson will be showing off her musical talents in the upcoming movie music, which was written and directed by Sia!

The first teaser trailer for the movie was just released and it also features dancer Maddie Ziegler, who plays the title character, and Tony Award winner Leslie Odom Jr.

Here is the film’s synopsis: Kate “plays Zu, a newly sober drug dealer and self-saboteur who finds herself the sole guardian of her half-sister, Music (Ziegler), a teenager with special needs. Barely able to take care of herself, let alone her sister, Zu struggles with this new responsibility, but soon learns that life’s obstacles are made easier with a little help from a friend, Ebo (Odom Jr.), a neighbor whose own family story makes him someone Zu can learn from and rely upon. The film explores the tenuous bonds that hold us together and imagines a world where those bonds can be strengthened in times of great challenge.”

Music featured 10 original songs that Sia wrote for the film. The movie will be released in early 2021 and Sia‘s album Music, which features songs from and inspired by the movie, is out on February 12, 2021.
