Alright, Hollywood’s most energetic action man-slash-aviator, Tom Cruise, is officially fangirling over Ana de Armas’ new movie Ballerina—and possibly Ana herself. (We’re not saying he’s in love, but we’re also not not saying that.)
In a recent interview with influencer Javier Ibarreche, Tom gushed about the John Wick spinoff like it was a couch and he was on Oprah.
“It just kicks a—. It’s right in that tone,” he said, which in Cruise-speak roughly translates to, “I would do a HALO jump just to watch it again.”
Now, let’s talk about the romantic elephant doing pirouettes in the room: these two have been spotted together more times than Tom’s been spotted running in movies (which is, frankly, a lot). Dinner dates? Check. Helicopter rides? Also check. Ana has apparently been borrowing his personal helicopter, which in Hollywood is either true love or just really expensive Uber.
They were even seen out right before Valentine’s Day, a.k.a. Cuffing Season: Celebrity Edition. Naturally, the internet is doing what it does best—jumping to conclusions, starting rumors, and shipping these two like it’s Amazon Prime Day.
Some people think they’re secretly dating. Others say they’re just working on a project. But honestly? When someone lets you borrow their chopper, that’s not just “networking.” That’s at least “soft launch on Instagram” levels of intimacy.
So is it a work thing? A love thing? A “Tom-likes-to-fly-people-around-in-helicopters-and-watch-action-movies-with-them” thing?
Only time, and probably TMZ, will tell. But one thing’s for sure—Tom Cruise is all in on Ballerina, and maybe just a little bit on Ana too.
Well, slap a cowboy hat on a Ouija board and call it a day — The Bondsman, Kevin Bacon’s yeehaw-meets-hellfire action-horror show, has officially been canceled after just one season on Prime Video. 😵💫
Announced on Friday (aka “No New Season Friday” for sad fans), Prime Video gave the ol’ thumbs down to a Season 2. That’s right — no more demon-chasing, soul-searching, or supernatural square-dancing for you.
If you missed the first season (aka the only season), here’s the spicy rundown: Kevin Bacon played a bounty hunter who dies (rude), gets resurrected by Satan himself (casual), and is sent back to Earth to hunt down escaped demons from Hell’s prison (yes, apparently Hell has a prison system — who knew?!). Along the way, he’s dealing with his estranged family, his spicy backstory of personal sins, and, most importantly… a burning desire to become a country music star. (Because why just fight demons when you can also drop a twangy debut album?)
Think Ghost Rider meets Walker, Texas Ranger meets a very confused CMA Awards show. And it was glorious.
The series featured not just Kevin “I’ve danced in barns and now I fight Satan” Bacon, but also Jennifer Nettles, Damon Herriman, Beth Grant, Maxwell Jenkins, and Jolene Purdy. It was eight episodes of chaos, cowboy boots, and demonic drama, all released on April 3.
So what happened? Maybe the Devil got too busy. Maybe the demons unionized. Maybe Prime just realized they couldn’t afford to keep paying Kevin Bacon in sacrificial goats and banjos. 🐐🎸
Whatever the case, The Bondsman now joins the heavenly (or hellish?) afterlife of one-season wonders — gone too soon, but definitely not forgotten by those of us who like our horror with a splash of honky-tonk.
Pour one out for Hub Halloran. And maybe crank some country music in his honor.👢🔥
RIP ‘The Bondsman’: Kevin Bacon’s Demon Rodeo Ends After One Wild Season
We’ve hit Day 5 of the Diddy Legal Drama Cinematic Universe, and the courtroom is officially more chaotic than your cousin’s group chat during family reunions. Yes, Sean “Diddy” Combs, aka the human remix button, is facing a mountain of spicy charges—including but not limited to sex trafficking, racketeering, and allegedly running his love life like it’s a canceled HBO series.
Cassie, his ex-girlfriend and current truth bomb detonator, is back on the stand. And let me tell you… the tea is still boiling.
Court: Now With 90% More Side-Eye
The day kicked off at 9am ET sharp, and Judge Arun Subramanian came in swinging like a substitute teacher who’s had enough. He told both sides to quit playing the blame game and PICK! UP! THE! PACE! Apparently, they’ve been taking longer than a TikTok skincare routine.
The Defense: “Let’s Play This Hiking Video!”
Prosecution: “ABSOLUTELY NOT.”
The defense tried showing a video of Diddy taking a nature stroll and giving strong “self-help podcast” energy. In the video, he says things like:
“Approach everything with grace, calmness, love, and God in my heart.”
Okay sir, but also… not the vibe when you’re on trial for felonies.
Prosecutors basically yelled “UNSUBSCRIBE!” and the judge was like, “Fine, Cassie can see it, but the jury will not.” Sorry, hikers.
Cassie: Not a Rag Doll, Actually Someone’s Child
In one of the most raw moments, Cassie read aloud a text she sent Diddy back in 2016 after a hotel incident:
“I am not a rag doll, I am someone’s child.”
And the courtroom got real quiet. Because WOW.
Confiscated Items List: iPhone, Car, Watch, Human Dignity
Cassie testified that when Diddy got mad, he took everything. Her phone? Gone. Her car? Bye. Her watch? Snatched like edges in a wind tunnel.
Basically, Diddy was out here playing Grand Theft Auto: Toxic Ex Edition.
The Sedona Trip and The Mysterious Tape
Things got even weirder when Cassie found out there might be a video of Diddy assaulting her in a hotel. She was in Sedona at the time, trying to come down from some illegal substances, which—let’s be real—is the most Sedona sentence ever.
Diddy texted her to stay close to a security guy like she was on a spy mission.
“This is crazy don’t let him out of your sight,” he wrote.
Cassie: “I don’t see why it’s that crazy.”
Honestly? Same.
Cassie Audio Tape: 100% Unhinged Rage
The jury then heard an absolutely feral audio recording of Cassie confronting a man about a possible sex tape. The energy? Straight-up Real Housewives reunion meets Law & Order.
“If you have it pull it up or I will kill you and he will kill you again.”
👀
Reminder: this woman has BEEN through it.
Trauma Therapy, But Make It Sci-Fi
Cassie spent 45 days at a trauma center called Willow House, where they apparently hook you up to a machine that regulates your brain waves so you can finish trauma like it’s a Netflix show you stopped halfway through. And no, it wasn’t for sex or love addiction. She clarified that multiple times.
The Freak Off Chronicles
Things took a wild detour into the “Freak Off” files. The defense showed Cassie a 2010 text where she allegedly suggested bringing in another woman instead of a man for their little… extracurriculars.
Cassie: “Yes, that’s what I’m suggesting.”
Let’s just say the courtroom needed popcorn and probably some holy water.
Burning Man 2018: Trauma, But Make It Bohemian
Cassie also dropped a major bomb that Diddy allegedly raped her in 2018 after a dinner in Malibu. They had broken up. She was dating someone else. But she agreed to dinner, and then things took a terrifying turn.
“He was acting strangely,” she said.
If that isn’t the understatement of the decade.
Final Thoughts From Judge “Let’s Wrap This” Subramanian:
The judge made it clear—AGAIN—that he wants this testimony wrapped up. My guy is so over it, he’s probably stress-eating court mints at this point.
Stay tuned, because this trial has more twists than a K-drama and zero chill.
James Van Der Beek — yes, THE Dawson from Dawson’s Creek, aka America’s original sad-boy heartthrob — is officially entering the Legally Blonde universe. And no, this isn’t a fever dream from 2001.
The 48-year-old nostalgia factory announced he’s joining Elle, the new Prime Video prequel series that gives us a peek into Elle Woods’ high school years. Think less Harvard Law and more hallway drama with sparkly folders and teen angst — but make it fashion.
Van Der Beek dropped the news on Instagram like it was a vintage Gucci bag at a thrift store:
“So, this is exciting… I’m going back to work for a bit,” he wrote, presumably after wrangling five kids and deciding filming a TV show might actually be less chaotic. “Super excited to join this awesome cast in such a fun project. Almost as excited as my wife and girls are that I’m doing this 😍.”
Translation: “My family has been living off Dawson reruns for too long. Daddy’s back, baby.”
In Elle, James will play Dean White — the town’s new mayoral candidate AND school superintendent. Because why have one power trip when you can have two? He’s basically the guy who cancels prom and raises your taxes. Can’t wait to love-hate him.
The show comes from Laura Kittrell, and it stars Lexi Minetree as teen Elle Woods, the future queen of courtroom couture. We’ll get to see all the formative moments that turned Elle into the blonde bombshell who took on Harvard in heels and taught a generation how to object with flair.
So yeah, James Van Der Beek is back in school — but this time, he’s not crying by a creek. He’s supervising a whole school district and maybe ruining Elle’s vibe. Or empowering it. Who knows? Either way, we’re watching.
Class is in session, and Professor Van Der Beek is ready to legally slay.
James Van Der Beek Is Going Blonde, Legally: Joins ‘Legally Blonde’ Prequel Like It’s 1999
From red carpets to report cards — she really did it all.
Storm Reid has officially joined the I-survived-college-and-only-cried-a-little club! 🙌 The 21-year-old Emmy-winning actress and professional scene-stealer strutted her stuff right outta the University of Southern California’s School of Dramatic Arts like it was a runway — cap, gown, and all.
In an Instagram post that basically screamed “Look Ma, I made it!”, Storm shared some glam grad pics and opened up about the academic rollercoaster that was her college experience.
“Everyone kept asking how I felt about graduating,” she wrote. “My answer? Pray for me.”
(Relatable. We’ve all been there — midterms, group projects, existential crises at 3AM…)
But apparently, your prayers did work, because homegirl crossed that finish line like it was the Met Gala carpet — divine, dazzling, and probably with Beyoncé playing in the background. 🎶
“There were so many times I didn’t think I’d make it. The finish line looked close, but felt so far,” she said.
(Honestly, the finish line always plays hide and seek when you’re knee-deep in finals and caffeine.)
And then she hit us with the ultimate mic drop:
“But with God? Anything is possible.” 🙌
(Preach, Pastor Reid! Someone pass the collection plate.)
Storm went on to say that choosing USC was the “best decision” of her life and that she’ll “forever FTFO.”
(For the uninitiated: FTFO = Fight. The. Fight. On. Aka, Trojan-speak for “I survived and I will flex forever.”)
She wrapped it all up by asking the most important question of the year:
“What do we call my success PLUS a degree??”
Answer: LEGENDARY. ICONIC. STORM-FREAKIN’-REID, PhD in Slaying.
So here’s to Storm — actress, scholar, prayer-request-turned-success-story. We raise our graduation caps (and iced lattes) to you. 🎉
Congrats, Storm! Now go out there and Euphoria-kick real life in the face — with your degree in one hand and your Emmy in the other. 💅💥
🚨 BREAKING: Katy Perry has momentarily pressed pause on belting out bops across America to pop into Paris for some good old-fashioned celebrity mischief with none other than Kim Kardashian and her glam squad.
Yes, while the rest of us were just trying to remember if we left the stove on, Katy freaking Perry was casually strutting through Paris with Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner (a.k.a. the CEO of everyone’s life), and Lauren Sánchez — who’s currently prepping to marry actual Amazon overlord Jeff Bezos. You know, just a typical Thursday night girl gang.
Turns out the whole glittery gang was in town for Lauren’s bachelorette bash. Because when you’re marrying the richest man on Earth, you obviously kick things off in Paris, right? Vegas is for peasants — Paris is for future space wives.
Speaking of space, this isn’t even Katy and Lauren’s first ride together — just weeks ago they literally left the planet on a Blue Origin flight. Some friends go for brunch. Others defy gravity. 💅✨
But don’t worry, Perry fans — your sparkly songstress hasn’t abandoned you. She’s due back in Las Vegas faster than you can say “Firework,” hitting the T-Mobile Arena on Saturday, May 17. She’ll be wrapping the U.S. leg of her Lifetimes tour on May 21 before packing her glitter cannon and heading Down Under for a full month of Aussie concerts.
After that? It’s back to the States in July — presumably with more stories about space travel, Parisian parties, and which Kardashian makes the best travel buddy. (Spoiler: It’s probably Kris. She packs snacks.)
Stay tuned — Katy Perry’s intergalactic pop star saga continues. 🚀🎤🛍️
Katy Perry Takes a Pit Stop in Paris to Party with Kim K, Kris J, and Bezos’ Bride-to-BeKaty Perry Takes a Pit Stop in Paris to Party with Kim K, Kris J, and Bezos’ Bride-to-Be
Pamela Anderson showed up to the 2025 Met Gala looking like she just stepped out of an artsy European film and a feminist poetry slam, and honestly? We’re here for it.
Swapping her iconic bombshell beach waves for a blunt bob with microbangs (yes, microbangs—the brave choice of women who fear neither wind nor judgment), Pam channeled equal parts French New Wave and I-cut-it-myself-at-midnight-during-a-moon-ritual energy.
When asked about her fresh look, the Last Showgirl star spilled the tea to IconicHipster.com, saying:
“I wanted something strong, brave, and committed—kind of like me when I’m three glasses of rosé deep trying to convince people astrology is real.”
She went on to say the new ’do was meant to align with the night’s theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, adding:
“The world needs more feminine warrior energy. This was my small contribution. It wasn’t about looking ‘good’—that’s so last season. Besides, the real main character was the Tory Burch dress. I was just the very lucky coat hanger.”
Iconic humility.
Apparently, the chop wasn’t even a last-minute glam moment—it was leftover from a film project a while back. Pam explained she had snipped her locks to channel legendary actresses Bibi Andersson and Liv Ullmann, aka the queens of staring into the existential void while looking devastatingly stylish.
So, was Pamela serving couture or leading a stylish cult? Trick question—it’s both.
Pamela Anderson Debuts Badass Bob at Met Gala 2025: “I Wanted to Look Like I Could Start a Revolution… or at Least a Group Chat”
Let Aunt Jamie Lee Curtis drop a truth bomb that’s louder than your uncle’s snoring during Thanksgiving dinner.
The 66-year-old scream queen/sass queen recently spilled some seriously unfiltered tea on 60 Minutes. And no, this wasn’t your average “let me talk about my film” interview — it was more like “let me tell you how a cranky camera dude insulted my eyeballs in 1985 and sent me straight to a plastic surgeon.”
So, picture this: Jamie’s filming the movie Perfect (which ironically was not perfect at all), and some cinematographer — who we assume looked like a dehydrated raisin himself — had the audacity to say, “Yeah, I’m not shooting her today. Her eyes are baggy.”
HER. EYES. ARE. BAGGY. Sir??? She was 25. TWENTY. FIVE. That’s practically baby-faced!
Jamie said she was mortified — because obviously — and as soon as the movie wrapped, she yeeted herself into a plastic surgeon’s office faster than you can say “botox regret.”
She told 60 Minutes:
“That’s just not what you want to do when you’re 25 or 26. And I regretted it immediately.”
Jamie, girl, SAME. I regret half my online purchases the minute I hit “confirm.”
Anyway, turns out the surgery wasn’t just a regret — it was a whole domino effect of disaster. Not only did it not cure her “baggy eyes,” but it also ended with her developing a secret opiate addiction. Not the kind of souvenir anyone wants from a nose job.
“I became very enamored with the warm bath of an opiate,” Jamie admitted.
(Wow, what a poetic way to say, “Yup, I got hooked.”)
She clarified that she kept it very hush-hush: no dramatic meltdowns, no mugshots, no Hollywood scandals. Just a quiet, behind-the-scenes battle that she eventually conquered — like the badass legend she is.
But the best part? Jamie’s now out here telling women everywhere that they are perfect (no 1985 movie pun intended) just the way they are. No tweaks needed, no scalpels involved, no creepy cinematographers judging your face like it’s an avocado past its prime.
So moral of the story?
Don’t let some dusty film bro talk trash about your eyelids.
Don’t rush into surgery to impress anyone but yourself.
And never trust anyone who uses the word “baggy” as a diss.
We love you, Jamie. Wrinkles, regrets, realness, and all. 🖤
It’s time for a lil’ tea from Queen Lizzo herself, who just dropped some real talk with a side of soul-searching sass on the show Therapuss (yes, that’s the actual name, and no, it’s not a cat therapist… I checked).
In the interview, our flute-toting, body-positive icon opened up about surviving the social media guillotine more times than we’ve all rage-quit group chats.
“I’ve been canceled a lot. I shouldn’t say I’ve been canceled, because I’m still going,” Lizzo said, probably while surrounded by crystals and emotional support snacks. “But I’ve gotten backlash a lot. Literally every single time I use it as a growing and learning lesson.”
Translation: Y’all keep throwing tomatoes, and she keeps making salad. Growth salad.
Now, for those of you who were off the grid (or just wisely ignoring Twitter/X chaos), back in 2023, Lizzo faced some spicy lawsuits from former dancers and a stylist, accusing her of sexual harassment and creating a toxic work vibe. In 2024, she addressed it all with a firm “I did nothing wrong,” basically giving the energy of a calm HR email with Beyoncé-level confidence.
But let’s take a trip back to 2019 — the year when Lizzo’s anthem Good As Hell was EVERYWHERE, including a Weight Watchers ad after Oprah bought the company. Sounds iconic, right? Lizzo thought so too:
“Oprah wants to use your song,” they said. And I LOST IT. Like full-on ‘ugly crying in public’ lost it,” Lizzo recalled. “I was like, ‘Oh my God, Oprah knows who I am!’”
Because let’s be honest — if Oprah says your name out loud, that’s basically a knighting.
But then came the internet.
“I posted the commercial all proud, and everyone was like, ‘You’re JOKING, right? This promotes eating disorders!’ and I was like, ‘OH NOOOO.’ It broke my heart. It truly broke my heart,” she said, clutching the shards of her crushed optimism.
Basically, she got Oprah-level excited and ended up with Twitter-level roasted. Been there, Lizzo.
Still, despite being “canceled” more often than my gym membership (shout out to January), Lizzo’s not going anywhere. She’s learning, evolving, and twerking through the trauma like the resilient glam goddess she is.
Moral of the story? You can’t cancel someone who already RSVP’d to their own healing party. Lizzo said growth, baby — and she meant it.
🚨 SOUND THE SMURF SIRENS 🚨 Rihanna is back and she’s bluer than ever — literally. Our favorite Bajan queen just dropped her newest track “Friend of Mine” and it’s straight outta Smurf Village. Yes, that Smurf Village. You know, where everyone’s tiny, adorable, and weirdly obsessed with wearing only white pants and hats.
This musical gem is part of the upcoming Smurfs movie soundtrack, because apparently Rihanna woke up one day and said, “You know what the world needs? A soulful bop for animated blue creatures.” And honestly? She was so right.
🎶 The Lyrics: Short, Sweet, and Smurf-Approved
Rihanna opens with the line,
“Ooh, I think the word here is ‘déjà-vu’”
which is fitting, because if you’ve ever heard one Rihanna chorus… well, you’ve basically heard this whole song. She repeats the phrase “feel like a friend of mine” so many times, it feels like she’s trying to hypnotize us into becoming honorary Smurfs. And guess what? IT’S WORKING.
This tune is so catchy, it’s like she took the chorus, put it in a blender with glitter and nostalgia, and served it on ice with a tiny blue umbrella. It’s giving pop lullaby meets Smurf fever dream, and we are so here for it.
🎤 Rihanna the Smurfette?
Yes, you heard that right. Rihanna is not just singing on the soundtrack — she IS Smurfette in the upcoming movie. So basically, the baddest woman on Earth is now a tiny, blue, animated icon with one dress and an attitude. Slay. Absolute Smurf slay.
The Smurfs movie hits theaters in July 2025, so mark your calendars and prep your mushroom homes. It’s about to get wild.
💿 Fans: “Rihanna music??? In this economy???”
Let’s be honest — getting new Rihanna music is like spotting a unicorn riding a rainbow into a pot of Fenty Beauty highlighter. Her last song, “Lift Me Up” (from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever), came out in 2022. And her last full album, ANTI, dropped all the way back in 2016, a.k.a. when TikTok was still musically.ly and avocado toast was controversial.
So, this song might be a single track from a Smurfs movie, but it’s basically Christmas for the Navy (Rihanna’s fanbase, not the military — calm down, sailors).
📺 Watch It, Sing It, Obsess Over It
There’s a full music video out now, and yes, you will be humming “feel like a friend of mine” while brushing your teeth, ordering coffee, and accidentally blurting it out during a Zoom meeting. The song is sticky in the best way — like glitter or the memory of your first crush.
Final Verdict: Rihanna could sing the phone book and we’d stream it. But instead, she gave us a Smurf-certified, serotonin-boosting bop that slaps harder than Papa Smurf’s magical staff. Add “Friend of Mine” to your playlist and prepare to feel blue in all the right ways 💙
Nicole Kidman strutted down the red carpet like a glamorous wellness witch recharging her moon crystals, officially confirming her return as the mysterious and mildly terrifying guru Masha Dmitrichenko for Season 2 of Nine Perfect Strangers. The big reveal happened on Thursday night (May 15) at the Beverly Estate in Beverly Hills, a venue so fancy even the champagne has a skincare routine.
Joining our ethereal queen were the newest batch of beautiful, emotionally fragile souls about to get psychologically exfoliated in the Alps: Henry Golding (who honestly could talk us into joining any cult), Murray Bartlett (who still hasn’t emotionally recovered from The White Lotus, but who has?), Annie Murphy (give this woman wine and chaos), Christine Baranski (because no show is complete without a high-functioning diva), Dolly de Leon, Maisie Richardson-Sellers, King Princess (yes, that’s a real person, not a medieval drag title), Aras Aydin, Lucas Englander, Mark Strong, and Lena Olin.
This new season is based (again) on the book by Liane Moriarty, the author responsible for making you side-eye every yoga retreat you’ve ever considered. Season 2 is premiering May 21 on Hulu—yes, finally, after FOUR WHOLE YEARS of waiting, which is basically 17 in streaming years.
The Plot (a.k.a. Hot People With Trauma, Part II):
Nine fresh strangers (cue dramatic music) are invited to a “transformational wellness retreat” in the Austrian Alps. What could possibly go wrong? Nicole—I mean Masha—is back with her whispery accent, questionable therapy methods, and the kind of wardrobe that says “I heal chakras and snatch souls.”
She pushes this unlucky bunch to their limits over the course of a week. There’s sweating, crying, probably goat yoga, and the ever-present chance that someone might microdose their way into enlightenment… or just scream into the mountains.
Will they make it out emotionally healed? Spiritually cleansed? Slightly confused and wearing linen? TBD.
But one thing’s for sure—Masha is ready to do whatever it takes to heal these strangers. And by “whatever it takes,” we mean anything short of an actual licensed therapy session.
Catch the madness, the glam, and the (very expensive) trauma bonding when Season 2 drops May 21 on Hulu. Prepare your crystals.
Live from the land of legal drama, champagne dreams, and texts that did not age well — welcome to Day 4 of the Sean “Diddy” Combs courtroom rollercoaster!
If you thought this trial couldn’t get any messier… honey, buckle up. We’re back in court, where the drama is thicker than a Real Housewives reunion and the receipts are older than your Facebook memories from 2009.
Previously on Keeping Up with the Court Case 🎬:
Day 1: Two witnesses spilled tea and one video hit the group chat of justice.
Day 2: Cassie took the stand and the courtroom air conditioning broke under pressure.
Day 3: Things got dark — allegations of rape and assault sent shockwaves through the courtroom (and Twitter).
And now we’re on Day 4, which opened like every good episode of Law & Order: Celebrity Unit — with more Cassie, more courtroom stares, and more texts that scream “We should’ve broken up via emoji.”
Enter Cassie: The Comeback Testimony 👠
Cassie returned to the stand for what is now her third day of answering questions and making everyone uncomfortable in the most polite way possible. It’s giving courtroom endurance queen.
The defense, clearly inspired by a Nicholas Sparks phase, opened with the kind of questions that make you roll your eyes so hard you see your childhood:
Diddy’s lawyer: “Did you know the real Sean?”
Cassie: “Yes.” (Translation: I dated the man for 11 years, sir, this isn’t a blind date.)
Defense: “The Sean… other people didn’t see.” Cue dramatic violin music.
Cassie: “Correct.” (Probably fighting the urge to roll her eyes harder than Judge Judy.)
The Exhibit A for Awkward: The Texts 📲
And then came the texts. Oh, the texts. We’re talking 2009 Blackberry messages that could’ve been written by a lovesick teenager watching The Notebook at 2 a.m.
Diddy (2009): “I love you so much it makes me cry.”
Also Diddy (2010): “Love my baby… I love you so much it consumes my life how did it happen.”
Cassie: “I wonder the same thing. Who was I before we decided to be together?”
Honestly, who among us hasn’t written something equally cringe during the honeymoon phase? (Raises hand, deletes iMessages.)
When Love Turns to Legalese 🧑⚖️💔
Cassie testified that she was head-over-heels in love with Diddy at the start. He was “charismatic,” “larger than life,” and had more red flags than a Six Flags amusement park.
“It was fast, fast-paced, scary,” she said.
“But the more time I spent with him, his real personality came out — sweet, attentive…”
…and also allegedly the ringleader of something called freak offs, which — no, that’s not a new Netflix show. That was his term for adult-themed… extracurriculars.
Cassie, about joining the freak offs:
“Yes, at the time, I wanted to make him happy.”
(Girl, we’ve all dated a man whose love language was chaos.)
Kids, Commitments & Chaos 👶💍
At the time, Diddy already had six kids (yes, six), but Cassie, in her love-struck emails, still dreamed of mini-me’s.
Because nothing says “romantic goals” like adding more children to a reality-TV-level relationship already spinning like a DJ set at 3 a.m.
So far, Day 4 has delivered romance flashbacks, a tragic Blackberry cameo, and a reminder that “I love you” texts can and will be used against you in a court of law.
Stay tuned for more courtroom confessions, awkward attorney questions, and the legal version of This Is Us — but make it messier.
🎶 “Love on the Brain”? Nah, Rihanna’s got errands on the brain.
Rihanna, who is apparently trying to out-baby the Duggar family, was seen in Los Angeles casually growing a whole human and shopping like it’s NBD. The 37-year-old pop icon, billionaire beauty mogul, and now professional voice-acting Smurf goddess stepped out on Tuesday (May 13) to run errands. We don’t know what she was buying, but we’re guessing it involved snacks, crystals, or maybe a tiny baby-sized Fenty onesie.
She rocked an oversized navy jersey (pregnancy chic, but also very “coach who forgot his whistle”) and some gray and pink sweatpants that screamed, “Yes, I’m comfy AND cooler than you.”
Oh, and in case you haven’t heard: Rih’s got baby #3 cooking in the Fenty oven! She and her equally genetically-blessed partner A$AP Rocky are adding another little superstar to their growing entourage. The current sibling lineup? RZA (3, already cooler than all of us), and Riot (21 months, probably has a skincare routine). Third kid’s name? TBD, but we’re putting money on “Rhythm” just to complete the R-trilogy.
But wait—this queen isn’t just growing a baby and buying snacks. She’s also saving the animated universe. That’s right, Rihanna is voicing Smurfette in the upcoming Smurfs movie, and the first trailer just dropped. And let us tell you—it’s giving blue, it’s giving fierce, it’s giving Smurf and slay.
Here’s the plot twist you didn’t know you needed:
Papa Smurf (voiced by John Goodman, aka everyone’s dream grandpa) gets snatched up by two evil wizards named Razamel and Gargamel (because obviously). Now it’s up to Smurfette (Rihanna!) to rally the Smurf squad and stomp into the real world for a magical rescue mission. Will she succeed? Will blue be the new black? Will there be glitter? Probably yes to all.
The cast is stacked like your fave brunch pancakes: James Corden, Nick Offerman, Daniel Levy, Sandra Oh, Octavia Spencer, Natasha Lyonne, Maya Erskine, Kurt Russell, and even Billie freaking Lourd. At this point, it’s basically Ocean’s 25: Smurf Heist Edition.
And as if Rihanna hadn’t done enough, she’s also dropping a brand new song for the film called “Friend of Mine” on Friday, May 16. It’s basically the anthem for cartoon loyalty, animated sass, and maybe baby-making (again?!).
Mark your calendars, grab your blue face paint, and get ready: Smurfs hits theaters on July 18, and we’re already planning to go full Smurf-core.
Rihanna out here doing it all—shopping, birthing, singing, smurfing. Honestly? Iconic.

Netflix’s sweetest, quirkiest, most feel-good dating show is officially coming back for Season Freakin’ 4! That’s right — Love on the Spectrum has been renewed, and it’s about to steal your heart all over again.
Season 3, which dropped on April 2, wasn’t just adorable — it was a certified global snack. The show strutted into Netflix’s Global Top 10 like it owned the place for two whole weeks, according to insiders. That’s two weeks of everyone binge-watching, crying, laughing, and screaming “WHY CAN’T ALL DATING SHOWS BE LIKE THIS?!”
Also, not to brag or anything (but we’re totally bragging), the show snatched TWO Emmys in 2024 — one for directing and another for casting, which, TBH, tracks because these people are casting real love, not drama llamas and influencers with six-pack abs and no personality.
And just when you thought this show couldn’t get more wholesome, one of the contestants wrote an original song, and it’s now in the running for an Emmy in 2025. Yes, that means Love on the Spectrum could add “chart-topper” to its list of achievements. Is there anything this show can’t do? (Other than disappoint us — that’s clearly off the table.)
If you’ve never watched, imagine a world where dating shows don’t make you want to throw your phone into the sea. Instead, you get real people, real feelings, and real moments that make you ugly cry in a beautiful way. The series follows autistic individuals as they bravely navigate the often wild and confusing world of romance, with awkward pauses, heartfelt conversations, and the kind of pure vibes that would make Cupid cry tears of joy.
Season 3 brought us new faces, returning fan faves, and moments so cute they should honestly be illegal. Season 4 is expected to bring more of that magic, though Netflix is still playing it cool and hasn’t spilled any details on casting or the premiere date yet. Typical. Like, come on, Netflix — give us a morsel. A teaser. A blurry screenshot. SOMETHING.
Until then, rewatch old seasons, practice your flirting skills (respectfully, of course), and get ready — because love is in the air, and this time, it’s got a Season 4 soundtrack. 🎶❤️
‘Love on the Spectrum’ Is Back for Season 4 — Because Love Isn’t Canceled, Baby!
Kendall Jenner and Hailey Bieber just blessed the streets of West Hollywood with their high-cheekbone energy and effortlessly cool fits.
The iconic bestie duo was spotted giggling like they just got roasted in a group chat as they strutted out of Sushi Park, the elite raw fish palace where celebs go to eat tuna and pretend they’re low-key.
Kendall, 29, rocked the classic “I just threw this on but I still look like a Vogue cover” look with a crisp white tee and jeans. Meanwhile, Hailey, 28, said “leather weather is forever” in a sleek black jacket layered over a white shirt and black pants—like a fashionable Oreo with model legs.
Earlier this week, Kendall was living her best courtside life in NYC, cheering on the Knicks with sister Kylie and Kylie’s maybe-boyfriend-maybe-Elf-Prince, Timothée Chalamet. Honestly, the trio looked like the most confusing but beautiful RPG character lineup ever.
Oh, and in case you were too busy screaming at your phone, Hailey just casually broke the internet by posting rare pics of baby Jack Blues, her 8-month-old son, for her first Mother’s Day. (Yes, we’re still recovering from the cuteness. No, we’re not okay.)
Celebs eat sushi, wear white tees like it’s a red carpet, and casually remind us that we are mere mortals. Godspeed. 🍣💅

Ryan Phillippe and his genetically blessed offspring Deacon just rolled up to the premiere of their new Prime Video show, Motorheads, and it was basically Fast & the Father-ous.
The stylish duo posed like they were auditioning for a GQ Father’s Day issue outside the Ted Mann Theater in L.A. on Tuesday night (May 13), where they gave cameras everything from brooding smolders to “I taught him that” smiles. Honestly, Deacon’s jawline alone deserved its own red carpet.
The rest of the Motorheads cast also showed up in full Hollywood formation. We’re talking Nathalie Kelley, Michael Cimino (not the Oscar-winning director, don’t get confused), Melissa Collazo, Nicolas Cantu, Uriah Shelton, Drake Rodger (great name, might steal it), Johnna Dias-Watson, Josh Macqueen, Mia Healey, and Matt Lanter—who is probably still recovering from the last time he played a hot dad or a time traveler.
As for the plot? Buckle up. Ryan (yes, he’s 50 but still looks like he moisturizes with unicorn tears) plays Logan, a former NASCAR mechanic with a tragic backstory—his brother Christian disappeared 17 years ago. Cue dramatic music and flashback fog. That’s where Deacon comes in, playing young Christian in the flashback scenes. It’s a real “dad plays the older version of a guy while his actual son plays the younger version of the same guy” situation. Nepo baby magic, but make it emotional.
Catch Motorheads on Prime Video starting May 20—because nothing says quality family time like high-octane trauma and a mysterious vanishing act.

The Little Mermaid isn’t just flipping her fins these days — she’s flipping the custody arrangement too. 🧜🏽♀️💼
Halle Bailey, aka Ariel 2.0 and queen of vocal cords, just went full mama bear on the legal system and secured temporary sole physical and legal custody of her 16-month-old baby boy, Halo — who is, by the way, already cooler than most of us at 16 months old. 🍼✨
Why? Oh honey, grab a snack. According to some very official court tea that spilled on May 14, Ms. Bailey told the judge that her ex, rapper-slash-YouTuber DDG (real name: Daryl Dwayne Granberry Jr., because apparently names can be longer than careers), allegedly got violent with her multiple times. Yikes. 🚨
So Halle said, “Nope, we’re not doing this,” and hit the court on May 13 like it was the Met Gala of legal filings. She asked for full custody and a restraining order — no RSVP required.
The judge was like, “Say less,” and granted her temporary full custody of baby Halo until a court date with DDG on June 4. So until then, it’s Mama Halle’s House, and DDG isn’t even allowed to hover within 100 yards. Not her house. Not her car. Not even the same Starbucks. ☕🚫
Also? DDG isn’t allowed to see or visit Halo at all until the court gives the next word. Translation: no playdates, no FaceTime, not even a “wyd” text.
According to the documents, Halle didn’t give DDG a heads-up about the filing because, well, she was afraid he’d either get violent again or go poof with the baby before the law could say “Hold up.”
So now, until early June, it’s Halle, Halo, and peace. ✌️
DDG, meanwhile, is on a legally-enforced time-out.
Halle Bailey Gets Solo Parent Mode Activated After Allegedly Dealing with DDG Drama
Emily in Paris just got a fabulous, tea-sipping plot twist: Minnie freakin’ Driver is joining the chaos in Season 5! That’s right—Oscar-nominated, scene-stealing, “Wait, she was in that too?” legend Minnie Driver is packing her designer bags and heading straight to the land of couture and confusing love triangles.
And guess what? She’s not just playing some random café owner who hands Emily another pain au chocolat while dramatically rolling her eyes. Nope! Minnie will be playing Princess Jane (YES, princess), a pal of Sylvie (our favorite Parisian ice queen with a heart of sarcasm) who married into royalty. Because, naturally, in Emily in Paris land, everyone either owns a fashion house, runs a vineyard, or is casually part of a monarchy.
The big reveal dropped on May 14, and it was juicier than a fresh croissant straight out of the oven. Variety spilled the tea first, and then Minnie herself took to Instagram like a proud Parisian pigeon, writing, “I am BEYOND thrilled to be joining this sensational cast and show.” And frankly, we are BEYOND thrilled to watch her waltz into the Emilyverse in a tiara and probably throw some elite-level shade over champagne.
Season 5 picks up right where Season 4 left off—aka in a tangled web of romance, Instagram filters, and suspiciously affordable Paris apartments. Filming is kicking off in Rome (because of course), and then the cast will return to Paris where someone will inevitably fall in love over an espresso. Again.
Oh, and in a plot twist nobody was emotionally prepared for, one of the regular cast members is saying “au revoir” and not returning this season. But don’t worry, with Minnie stepping in as a royal, there’ll be more than enough drama, designer coats, and scenes of people arguing about relationships next to the Seine to go around.
Stay tuned, mes amis. The drama’s about to get a royal upgrade. 👸🍷🗼
Miami, hold onto your margaritas—Donatella Versace just unleashed some haute couture fury, and it’s as spicy as a jalapeño in stilettos.
Apparently, there’s a brand-new hotel about to open in Miami called the Donatella Boutique Hotel & Restaurant (because originality is out of fashion, clearly), and Queen Donatella herself is not having it. Like, at all. Zero. Zilch. No thank you, next.
On May 10, the 70-year-old fashion icon—and woman who can probably kill with a single side-eye—took to Instagram to say, “Absolutely NOT, darling,” to this new establishment that dared slap her name on the front like a discounted designer bag.
> “Let me be clear,” she typed, with the fury of a thousand runway models who missed their espresso shots. “The hotel and restaurant named ‘Donatella,’ located near the property where my brother’s life was taken, has and will never have anything to do with me or my family.”
And just in case anyone missed the point (or had the audacity to think this was a collab), she doubled down:
“To try to capitalize on our tragedy and my name for profit is disgraceful.”
Translation: Get my name out yo’ mouth, and off your tacky signage.
Now, for the tea. The hotel is apparently being opened by Nakash and Vida & Estilo Hospitality group (we know, sounds like the name of a mid-season “Shark Tank” pitch). It’s scheduled to open on May 21, but now it’s opening with a fresh layer of scandal.
Quick Versace history break: The Nakash fam bought the OG Versace mansion back in 2013 for a cool $41.5 million (casual). Gianni Versace, the legend himself, bought the mansion in 1992, and heartbreakingly, it’s also where he was killed in 1997. The Versace family sold it three years later, and the new owners turned it into the very glam-sounding Villa Casa Casuarina (which yes, has a restaurant called Gianni’s, because subtlety is dead).
Fast forward to 2025, and now the same group is out here trying to open a so-called “sister property” called Donatella, per Ocean Drive magazine. But let’s be real, it’s giving awkward cousin energy more than glamorous sibling vibes.
Oh, and if this all wasn’t dramatic enough, Donatella also recently stepped down as Creative Director of Versace after 30 years, probably to relax with a spritz and not have to deal with random hotels hijacking her name.
Moral of the story: If you’re going to name your hotel after a living fashion deity, maybe send a polite email first? Or at least bribe her with a custom marble bathtub and a lifetime supply of gold-threaded towels?
Paris just got way shinier, and no, it wasn’t because of the Eiffel Tower—it was Kim Kardashian, casually showing up to testify in court looking like she robbed herself.
Yep, Kim K stepped into a Parisian courtroom on Tuesday morning (May 13) to face her 2016 nightmare—aka the terrifying incident where she was tied up, gagged, and robbed at gunpoint of over \$10 million in jewelry. But fast forward to 2025, and our girl walked back into Paris like a sparkly phoenix rising from the ashes of crime, ready to give her testimony and serve lewks.
And in true Kardashian fashion, Kim didn’t just show up—she shone. According to jewelry whisperer and diamond detective Laura Taylor (a Lorel Diamonds expert with eyes sharper than the Rock’s jawline), Kim was wearing about $8 million worth of jewelry in court. Let that sink in. She testified about being robbed of her jewels… while wearing more jewels. Iconic or ironic? We’ll let the philosophers handle that one.
Let’s break it down like a TikTok skincare routine:
💎 A $1.5 MILLION diamond necklace by Samer Halimeh New York (aka enough to buy a small island or like, three eggs in L.A.).
💍 A diamond ring that probably has its own zip code.
👂 An $8,100 18-karat white gold ear cuff from Briony Raymond, because why have plain ears when your earlobes can scream wealth?
And the next day? Kim and Kris were seen strutting out of their Paris hotel like nothing happened, possibly off to brunch, possibly off to secure the crown for most glamorous courtroom comeback ever.
Moral of the story: you can tie up Kim Kardashian, but you cannot tie down her sparkle. 💅✨
Kim Kardashian Showed Up to Court Dripping in More Ice Than a Polar Bear’s BathtubKim Kardashian Showed Up to Court Dripping in More Ice Than a Polar Bear’s Bathtub
Welp, here we are again in the cursed timeline where resurfaced celebrity photos make headlines—not for the outfits, but for the alleged injuries hidden under them. Cassie, the “Me & U” singer you probably slow-danced to in high school, is back in the spotlight, and not because she dropped a new track. Nope. It’s because she’s spilling more tea (read: scalding lava) during Sean “Diddy” Combs’ absolutely bananas sex trafficking trial.
So, picture this: it’s March 7, 2016. Cassie walks the red carpet at the Hollywood premiere of The Perfect Match. She’s smiling, serving looks, and probably thinking, “Wow, I hope nobody can tell I just covered a black eye, a fat lip, and bruises on my legs with half a Sephora store.”
According to her testimony on Day 3 of the trial (which, let’s be honest, is already more dramatic than any episode of Law & Order), the red carpet moment came just TWO days after a hotel attack allegedly at the hands of Diddy—caught on camera, no less. Yes, this footage apparently exists and was leaked in 2024 like some sort of horrifying “throwback Thursday from hell.”
Cassie, now 38 and done with the BS, told the court that she thought Diddy was “sick” for thinking it was even remotely okay to allegedly hurt her and then expect her to show up looking like Hollywood’s Next Top Cover Girl. Sis had to swap outfits last minute just to hide the bruises on her legs. Like, red carpet-ready but make it “trauma couture.”
Also shown in court? A photo of Cassie and Diddy at the event, both smiling like it’s just another glamorous night in Tinseltown—because trauma and Hollywood go together like peanut butter and… gaslighting?
Cassie is still testifying, and honestly, we’re all bracing for more plot twists than a Shonda Rhimes finale.
Stay tuned—because this case is messier than a toddler in a ball pit full of glitter and lies.
Cassie’s 2016 Red Carpet Throwback Is Going Viral… for All the Wrong, Horrifying Reasons
Kim Kardashian said “court by day, couture by night” as she strutted straight from the witness stand to a bougie dinner in Paris — and yes, the outfit change was crucial.
The 44-year-old reality TV empress/Skims mogul/professional glamazon hit up Le Voltaire restaurant on Tuesday night (May 13) with her equally iconic momager Kris Jenner, who probably booked the reservation before the trial even started. Priorities, people.
Kim rolled up looking like a caramel dream, wrapped in a tan fur coat (faux, we hope — Paris is judgy) and a chocolate-brown dress so sleek it probably came with its own NDA. Honestly, she looked like a dessert the French would serve with gold flakes and a $500 bill.
But let’s rewind to earlier that day — because Kim wasn’t just there for the escargot and ambiance. She had serious business to handle. She took the stand in court to testify against the crew of robbers who, back in 2016, broke into her hotel room, tied her up, gagged her, and stole over \$10 million in jewelry. Basically, it was a real-life Ocean’s Eleven, but terrifying and with less George Clooney.
During her testimony, Kim explained how her security game has leveled up since the incident. We’re talking Fort Knox meets Secret Service. She also spilled on how she handles her bling now — spoiler alert: it’s not just lying around in her purse anymore. We’re guessing most of it lives in a vault guarded by dragons or Kanye’s old security team.
Despite the traumatic topic, Kim powered through like the icon she is — and then immediately transformed into Parisian glam Barbie by dinner time. Justice served and fashion delivered? Only Kim Kardashian could.
Bon appétit, queen.
Kim Kardashian Goes Full French Fancy for Dinner in Paris After Courtroom Drama Fit for NetflixKim Kardashian Goes Full French Fancy for Dinner in Paris After Courtroom Drama Fit for Netflix
Noah Centineo just stepped out in West Hollywood looking like he wandered out of a wilderness survival reality show and somehow still pulled it off.
The 29-year-old To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before heartthrob was spotted Tuesday night (May 13) outside Sushi Park, having an aggressively chill laugh with a friend. Was it about the state of his beard? The price of sashimi? The fact that we still call it “WeHo”? Unclear. But one thing’s certain: the man is thriving in his “I definitely own a skateboard but don’t use it” era.
Noah rocked a bold combo of black tank top, green sweatpants, and a white baseball hat—all of which screamed, “I may or may not be on my way to audition for a reboot of Cast Away.” The scruff? Strong. The hair? Flowing. The vibe? “Hot yoga instructor who gives great life advice but disappears to Costa Rica twice a year without warning.”
Now onto the tea that actually matters: rumor has it Noah’s been spending time with none other than Zoe Kravitz—you know, the effortlessly cool actress who could wear a burlap sack and still look like she’s on the cover of Vogue. This comes after her split from Channing Tatum, which sent shockwaves through the universe (or at least Twitter).
Recently, Noah and Zoe were seen gallivanting around New York City with other famous people, probably discussing art, astrology, and how to dodge paparazzi in Soho.
So what’s next for Noah Centineo? A beard oil sponsorship? A surprise EP drop? A rom-com called To All the Sushi I’ve Eaten Before? Only time will tell.
Stay tuned, stay scruffy.
Noah Centineo Debuts “Mountain Man Chic” on Sushi Run in WeHo
The trailer for Oh. What. Fun. just dropped, and honestly? It looks like someone spiked the eggnog with freedom.
Starring the eternally flawless Michelle Pfeiffer (yes, THE Michelle Pfeiffer, who ages like fine wine and better than your favorite skincare serum), this holiday flick is giving Hallmark movie energy—but with an attitude, a budget, and actual Oscar nominees.
Let’s talk cast first, because Prime Video clearly raided the cool kids’ table:
We’ve got Felicity Jones (the queen of whisper-acting), Dominic Sessa (fresh off the “I’m about to be famous” train), Chloë Grace Moretz (our forever Hit-Girl), Devery Jacobs, Jason Schwartzman (he probably owns twelve typewriters), Rafaella Karnaby, Drake Shehan (yes, that’s a name and not a DJ), and Denis “I-Yell-a-Lot” Leary.
The plot? Oh, baby, it sleighs.
Michelle plays Claire Clauster (yes, they really named her that—CLAUSTER. As in CLAUSTROPHOBIC. Someone give this screenwriter a candy cane and a raise). Claire is the kind of mom who ices cookies with the precision of a NASA engineer and gift-wraps like she’s competing in the Hunger Games of Christmas. She’s basically Santa with a blowout.
BUT—plot twist! Her grown-up kids and husband get too busy with their own drama to notice… they forgot their MOTHER. Yes. The woman who literally invented Christmas in their household.
So what does Claire do? She pulls a full Eat, Pray, Slay and peaces out for a Christmas adventure of her own—one with zero casseroles, zero passive-aggressive family dinners, and maximum peppermint lattes. While her family runs around trying to find her (and probably crying into their unsalted mashed potatoes), Claire discovers what the holidays really mean: doing whatever the hell you want.
And because Santa heard us asking for more icons per frame, the supporting cast also includes Eva Longoria, Danielle Brooks, Joan Chen, Maude Apatow, and Havana Rose Liu. It’s like the Avengers of holiday movies—but with more tinsel and unresolved family tension.
🎬 Oh. What. Fun. hits Prime Video on December 3, which gives you exactly three weeks to prep your matching pajamas and avoid your own family’s dysfunction by watching someone else’s.
Merry chaos, everyone. Michelle Pfeiffer said “Ho ho no,” and honestly? Mood.
