“One Tree Hill” star says exec warned her the show was about 'fucking and sucking'

Bethany Joy Lenz claims she was given a shockingly blunt explanation of One Tree Hill, before signing on to spend nine seasons as Haley James Scott.

In her upcoming memoir Dinner for Vampires, the actress recalls having an awkward conversation with her manager, hours before her final chemistry read for the show. Lenz said it was the night before her screen test when she got a call from her manager, who had just spoken to an executive from the show.

"I have a direct quote that I’ve been asked to relay to you, to make sure you know exactly what you’re getting into before you sign this contract,” Lenz recalled her manager saying. She was then told exactly what the exec had said: “You tell her this show is about f---ing and sucking and if she’s gonna have a problem with that, she shouldn’t come in tomorrow.”

As Lenz recalls it, both her and her manager were speechless. But after a moment, she began giving the comment some serious thought.

At this point, Lenz — who was raised as an evangelical Christian — had previously turned down the opportunity to star in the Amanda Bynes sitcom, What I Like About You because she worried that playing a woman who lived with her boyfriend would “normalize ‘living in sin’ for young girls." (The role was instead filled by Jennie Garth.)

But despite the blunt warning about One Tree Hill, Lenz didn’t want to give up her pursuit of the show.

In her memoir, Lenz explains that she was attracted to the show because it “felt different from most bubble-gum TV with subliminal agendas.” She had no interest in limiting her career to stereotypical faith-based dramas that “lacked the complexity and nuance of real-life.”

She added, “Grit didn’t scare me, and the One Tree Hill pilot had grit.”

She was also comforted to know that she would fill the role of the “awkward girl next door” who she identified as the "most wholesome" member of the main cast.

"I didn’t feel too at risk of being objectified,” she wrote. “I believed in this show and its ability to send meaningful, uplifting messages to the audience.”

So she told her manager to pass her interest along: “Just tell him I understand what he’s saying. I’m not gonna try and stop them from writing about real teenagers. I believe in this show and I want to be a part of it.”

The next day, Lenz went to the chemistry read where she met Chad Michael Murray and landed the gig in the room.

Though she would stick with the show throughout its entire nine-season run, Lenz wrote that the “f---ing and sucking” comment would come back to haunt her whenever she made an effort to push back against creative decisions — including being asked to film a scene while wearing only a bra.

"When I stood my ground as a matter of religious modesty, my manger would get a call, 'She’s being difficult again. We told you what this show was about,’” Lenz wrote. “And, in fairness, they did. The ‘f---ing and sucking’ executive has been very clear about that. I guess I just looked at my character and figured that would be other people’s storylines.”

Whitney and Cissy were not biological mother and daughter?

Any truth to this rumor? Supposedly, actress Teresa Graves from the '70s series GET CHRISTIE LOVE! was Whitney's bio mom. John Houston had an affair with her, and after Teresa died tragically, Cissy took Whitney and raised her as her own. I never did think Whitney resembled Cissy in the slightest. Teresa would have been around 15 when she gave birth to Whitney, which could explain a backdoor adoption as John Houston was in his 40s at the time!

Need advice on Paris trip

I booked a trip to Paris for late November, and I decided to stay near CDG airport and commute to the city daily, rather than staying in Paris itself.

What's the easiest way to Paris from a hotel near CDG?

I was thinking of catching the hotel shuttle to the airport every day, and then maybe taking a train from the airport to the city.

Is there a train from the airport to the city, and is it easy to navigate? Also, how much does it cost and how early/late does it run?

What stop(s) would be a good starting point to just get off at, and then walk around to explore the city?

I know this is a weird way to vacation in Paris, but I don't like being far away from the airport, especially in a big city that is unfamiliar to me, plus the language barrier.

Also, my return trip is early in the morning, so it's just easier for me to be close to the airport.

Nico Tortorella no longer uses they/them pronouns: “I feel like a man more than I ever have”

There’s something that happened specifically in the pronoun conversation too. I use he/him pronouns at this point. You [his wife Bethany C. Meyers] use she/her pronouns. Not to say that we’re opposed to they/them pronouns. I just really don’t care about it in the same ways that I did back in the day. Call me whatever you want, just make sure you call me a type of thing. I don’t mind it [they/them pronouns]. I truly don’t care.

I feel like a man more than I ever have in my entire life right now you know and I f***ing stand by that. It’s such a great feeling. It’s not to say that I won’t feel more fluid in the future, right? I can still f***ing sass out from time to time, but I’m in my truth right now and it’s real.

But there’s something that happened in our infertility where we were just experiencing roadblock after roadblock after roadblock and the pronoun conversation was this unnecessary roadblock that we were continuing to just face head on and I just had to let it go. I just had to move on. There was too much coming at us at once and that was part of just the release. There’s so much release that needs to happen to create life.

Liam Payne's Official Cause of Death Confirmed by Authorities

More information about Liam Payne’s tragic death is coming to light.

After the former One Direction member died on Oct. 16 at the age of 31 due to a fatal fall from a balcony at the Casa Sur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina, his official cause of death has been confirmed.

According to a release shared by Argentine officials, the National Criminal and Correctional Prosecutor's Office No. 16 reported that the autopsy for Liam found his cause of death to be “polytraumism (multiple traumatic injuries), internal and external hemorrhage."

Coroners confirmed that the 25 injuries described in the report coincide with those expected from a fall at a height, while noting “the head injuries were sufficient to cause death, while the internal and external hemorrhages in the skull, thorax, abdomen and limbs contributed to the mechanism of death.”

The release confirms no evidence of defensive wounds were found to be present that would suggest “the intervention of third parties." A toxicology report is reportedly still pending, though the release confirms " series of substances were seized from the musician's room, which would prove a previous situation of alcohol and drugs consumption."

Prior to the autopsy findings, Buenos Aires emergency services chief Alberto Crescenti provided additional information about Liam’s fall, noting the singer’s injuries were so severe first responders were unable to treat them upon arriving at the scene.

“Our role was to head there quickly, give medical attention, and try to resuscitate him, but his injuries were incompatible with life,” he explained to the Argentine publication La Nación in Spanish. “Based on what the team saw, there was apparently a cranial fracture and extremely serious injuries that led to his immediate death.”

He continued, “The team could do absolutely nothing. There was no resuscitation because it was confirmed that he had died. The whole body had very serious injuries.”

I forgot the rule “Never Read Bret Stephens”

I was tempted today by what purported to be an analysis of Trump’s political resurrection.

What brought Trump back to power?

1) the “gatekeepers to cultural respectability” a diverse group of people who have said things Stephens finds objectionable), 2) Biden (for running again, and for not clarifying in a 2022 speech that not all MAGAs are threats to Democracy), and 3) Democrats (apparently entirely represented by the Colorado Secretary of State) for seeking to enforce the 14th Amendment and for arguing against the Republican description of the American economy as “darkness at noon.”

Apparently, these sins are what compel the GOP to be an anti-democratic cult.

This is what passes for insight?

Ex-Univ. Kentucky Student Is Sentenced to Prison for Racist Attack on Black Student

The former University of Kentucky student who was seen on viral video unleashing a tirade of racial slurs against a Black student who was working at a dormitory front desk has been sentenced to a year in prison, a Fayette County Circuit Court clerk confirms to PEOPLE.

On Thursday, Oct. 17, Fayette Circuit Court Judge Lucy Vanmeter sentenced Sophia Rosing, 23, to 12 months in prison for the Nov. 2022 incident, according to the court clerk.

In August, Rosing pleaded guilty to four counts of fourth-degree assault, one count of disorderly conduct and one count of alcohol intoxication, PEOPLE previously reported.

One of the counts of fourth-degree assault was for kicking a police officer and biting his hand, court records show.

Rosing was ordered to perform 100 hours of community service and pay a $25 fine.

On Nov. 6, 2022, in an incident that garnered national attention after it went viral, Rosing, a senior, was seen attacking Kyla Spring, a then-19-year-old freshman, who was working the overnight shift at the dormitory's front desk, the Courier-Journal, the Lexington Herald Leader and WLWT5 report.

Rosing was "very intoxicated," according to a police report cited by the Herald-Leader, and entered the campus residence hall without an ID, according to authorities, CBS News reported.

When Spring asked her if she was OK, Rosing began attacking her both verbally and physically, police said, WKYT reported.

Spring kept her composure as Rosing pushed her while yelling slurs at her, the video shows.

When Spring asked her to please stop, Rosing can be seen in the video replying, “No, thank you. You’re a n—. You’re a b—,” over and over again.

Arrested that night, Rosing pleaded not guilty.

She was subsequently expelled from the university and banned from campus by the university president.

After the incident, University of Kentucky President Eli Capilouto wrote in a letter to the university that Spring "acted with professionalism, restraint and discretion."

In an interview with CBS Mornings in 2022, Spring said she knew she had to remain calm, even while Rosing was verbally and physically attacking her.

"I wanted to make sure I acted appropriately so that I could keep my job because the script could have been flipped at any time if I had retaliated," Spring told CBS Mornings.

In a statement to PEOPLE, Rosing’s attorney, Fred Peters, called the sentence “extremely unfair and out of proportion” and “extremely harsh for a first offense where no one was hurt to the extent that they required any medical treatment whatsoever. Sophia was just completely out of her mind drunk.If there was a way we could appeal her sentence we would but unfortunately, I don't think there is any grounds at the present.”

At her sentencing, Rosing apologized in court saying she had never used the N-word before and would never use it again.

Rosing is being held in the Fayette County Detention Center.

The judge sentenced her to 12 months in prison for each of the four counts with the sentences running concurrently.

Donna Mills Is Going to Be a Grandma!

Actress Donna Mills, who turns 84 in a couple of months, announced that her 'baby' Chloe is going to make her a first-time grandma. (Most women who are 84 are usually sharing the news they will be a great-grandma, so this news is a bit 'different').

Donna Mills, best known for her role as Abby on the Dallas spinoff Knots Landing, recently shared a very exciting personal update: her only daughter, Chloe Mills, is expecting her first child. Mills seems over the moon to be a grandmother, especially since she adopted Chloe when she was 54 years old.

Chloe and her fiancé Travis Collings are expecting a baby boy. They shared the news in a joint Instagram post that read, “Baby Boy Collings coming in 2025”

Donna shared her own posts from the baby shower, full of blue balloons and teddy bears. She said, alongside the photos, “My baby girl is having a baby!! And we gave her the shower of her dreams. Can’t wait to meet the little guy. I know I’ll love him as much as I love her.” While Chloe will be a younger mom, Donna has previously opened up about becoming a mother in her 50s.

Gen Z vs. Gen X - Crybaby Whiners vs. Straight Talk - Trisha Peytas vs. Rainn Wilson

Trisha Paytas is an influencer who has been successful on multiple social media platforms, including YouTube and hosting her podcast, "Just Trish."

And, recently, she sat down with Rainn Wilson on his "Soul Boom" podcast to talk more deeply about her life and fame.

One moment from the podcast that has a lot of people talking is when Trisha opened up about a psychotic break she had in September of 2021. "I went on Twitter, it wasn't even YouTube, and I was screaming, sobbing, like I couldn't control myself — I couldn't breathe. Just like shouting at people to leave me alone," she shared.

Right away, Rainn interrupts her, saying, "Let me just pause you right there. What is it about you...and I'm trying to really understand this. 'I'm so activated, I'm so triggered, I'm so angry, I'm so overwhelmed, I'm about to just lose my shit, I'm gonna have a psychotic break. But I gotta log in and hit live stream and put it on the tripod — and make sure my light is on. Now I'm going to have the psychotic break.'

"What's the deal with that, though? What is that impulse? Is it 'cause you're getting that reward from doing it? The more you have nervous breakdowns online, then the money truck backs up?"

Trisha also shared that she has borderline personality disorder. "I have trouble regulating my emotions. I thought relationships were more intense than they were. I would have these fantasies, but also, like, I would disassociate at the same time. So there was delusion, disassociation, and a lot happening," she explained.

At another point in the interview, Rainn also tells Trisha, "Three years without a gigantic online breakdown...feel free to have one here, though!"

Over the past few days, people have started resharing clips from the podcast on TikTok, saying Rainn was condescending to Trish.

And others, like TikToker cootyqueen13 who has garnered over 600,000 views — and a response from Trisha — are sharing their thoughts: "Everything she [Trish] was saying and sharing, there were so many moments where he would pause her and mock her for posting it online."

Some users have even gone viral with their skits reenacting the interview, like @pogsyy whose video has over a million views.

In general, people are pointing out how celebrities experience fame in a totally different way than influencers.

And a lot of people feel celebrities lack authenticity.

There were more than a few moments that people say were out of touch and disingenuous.

However, despite the uncomfortable moments, Trisha was applauded for how she handled the interview overall.

Actors you wish had been more prolific

Watching lots of old movies lately and I can’t help but wonder what might have been with some of the actors I’ve watched whose careers seemed somewhat short lived.

Samantha Eggar was a beautiful, stylish British actress who peaked in the 60s. Her career seemed to trail off in the 70s. She had the kind of cut glass English accent and looks that could rival Joan Collins on Dynasty. She also guest starred on a lot of Aaron Spelling shows in the 70s and 80s that I wonder if she wasn’t a consideration for Alexis too.

James Fox is another actor whose career somewhat lagged in the 70s when he decided to become an evangelical Christian. I sometimes watch Michael York in the 70s and wonder if he didn’t run of with Fox’s career.

What are the must-see spots and things to do? What’s the gay scene like - if there is one? I’m one of those so-called coastal gays who’s never set foot in the Midwest, so I'm ready to explore! I’d also love some snappy day trip ideas, especially if they lead to the Great Lakes.

Lesbians are going extinct: truth or fiction?

Some lesbian commentators on YouTube have been saying lately that “lesbians are going extinct.“ In other words, lesbians are no longer identifying as lesbians, but rather as “queer“ or “nonbinary” or “trans.” Even Katie Herzog mentioned in one video that she knew a group of lesbians who lived together in the same house who all transitioned.

I’m curious to hear from the lesbians of DL. Are there still a lot of young lesbians who are identify as lesbian?

If you don’t wash your asshole in the shower or clean out your mouth in the morning, it smells god awful. And any good quality man is going to be clean.

Said a source: "In Australia, it's like Grease just came out yesterday. "There's this whole country where he has been consistently famous for over 40 years, in part because of his close friendship with Olivia."

“John’s supporters are aging out of the business and dwindling in numbers. When he's in L.A., he barely gets recognized anymore."

Polls show an election that could be the 'closest since Bush v. Gore'

James Carville was on the Upper East Side of Manhattan recently when he kept being stopped by anxious New Yorkers begging the famed Cajun political sage for some kind of guidance about how the November election would turn out.

He had nothing for them.

“They firmly believed that I had some kind of secret knowledge,” said the veteran Democratic strategist. “It’s the hardest thing in the world to tell someone who thinks you’re omnipotent that you’re really not.”

The tough-to-swallow truth for anxious voters of all stripes is that no one can predict the future, especially in an election that right now feels like the closest in most Americans’ lifetimes, though the outcome could end up more definitive.

Just weeks before Election Day, the race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump is deadlocked, with polls showing razor-thin margins in key battlegrounds and nationally.

“The polls — public and private — are closer in this election than any I have ever seen,” said Dan Pfeiffer, a former aide to Barack Obama. “Everything is within the margin of error, so we are at a point where polls are incapable of giving you much information about which way the horse race is trending.”

NBC News’ latest poll shows the race split exactly 48%-48% — a “dead heat,” according to pollster Jeff Horwitt, a Democrat who conducted the survey with Republican pollster Bill McInturff.

And the story is the same in other polls and polling averages, with Quinnipiac University pollster Tim Malloy saying the race “can’t get much closer.”

After polling misses in recent elections, few analysts today are willing to stake a bet. And there is zero expert consensus about the outcome, let alone the kind of consensus view that defined the final days of the last four presidential campaigns — in large part because much of that conventional wisdom ended up proven wrong.

A whole industry has emerged to parse the data and filter it through complex probabilistic mathematical formulas. But in a country balanced on a pencil tip, able to fall any direction with a proverbial gust of wind, all the data in the world still has analysts searching for synonyms for “toss-up.”

“It’s now literally 50/50,” Nate Silver wrote on X Tuesday. Republican pollster Frank Luntz summed up the election with a single gif: A coin flip.

The dynamic has Republican strategist Matt Gorman looking back to the 2000 election, which essentially came down to 537 votes in Florida and an overtime legal fight that went all the way to the Supreme Court.

“It’s going to be the closest since Bush v. Gore,” said Gorman, noting the likelihood of similar post-election legal fights. “There’s just so much more likelihood and political incentive for either side to drag this out.”

“Hope you’re ready to be eating turkey in Erie County!” he joked about journalists and campaign operatives decamping to the northwestern Pennsylvania battleground to watch ballots be counted during Thanksgiving.

Prince Harry and Meghan eye "Golden Visa" with possible home purchase in Portugal

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are said to be laying down roots overseas.

The U.K.’s DailyMail reported that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex bought a vacation home in Portugal. The couple currently resides in the wealthy, coastal city of Montecito in California with their son Prince Archie, 5, and daughter Princess Lilibet, 3.

Several royal experts, who’ve heard whispers of the reported purchase, said that the location is an ideal choice for the pair.

"The number of people inside the royal family who are willing to proclaim their friendship for Harry and Meghan has dwindled to practically nothing," Christopher Andersen, author of "The King," claimed to Fox News Digital.

"No one wants to run afoul of the king and Prince William – it's that simple," Andersen claimed. "Somehow Prince Harry’s cousin Princess Eugenie, who has a home in Portugal, has been able to straddle the fence – to remain in the king's good graces but also not turn her back on the Sussexes. Obviously, Harry and Meghan are very grateful for the loyalty Eugenie has shown."

"Purchasing a villa in Portugal has more to do with being close to a royal family member who is still genuinely fond of them than it does with being geographically closer to Great Britain," he claimed.

According to the DailyMail, Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, own a home in CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club, a luxury development of 300 properties by the sea in Melides.

Jack, 38, works in marketing and sales for CostaTerra, the outlet shared. The couple and their two sons, August, 3, and Ernest, 16 months, split their time between Portugal and London.

"Eugenie has always been very close to both Harry and Meghan," said Andersen. "It comes as no surprise that the Sussexes would find the idea of owning beachfront property at the exclusive Portuguese resort appealing.

"It will be interesting to see if CostaTerra becomes the new Mustique, the Caribbean Island paradise that celebrities like Mick Jagger and David Bowie once flocked to after the late Princess Margaret took up residence there," he said. "That royal fairy dust is pretty heady stuff."

"Portugal is considered one of the safest places in Europe, which will resonate with Prince Harry’s paranoia that everyone is out to get them," said British broadcaster Helena Chard. "Many people are settling in Portugal due to tax breaks and quality of life. The stunning beaches will also appeal to Prince Harry’s surfing passion."

"Portugal is also a few steps closer to the U.K., which is a promising sign that they hope to work toward peace with the royal family," she pointed out.

Anyone here watching "Elsbeth"?

It's a spinoff of "The Good Fight," still one of the best series seen to date on a streaming channel, and itself a spinoff of "The Good Wife." The show just started its second season. Elsbeth is a "quirky" lawyer who's also a genius, played by the excellent Carrie Preston. It's always "Columbo"-style: they always start out showing the murder, and then Elsbeth solves it along with the NYPD. (She's working with a task force of sorts.) They usually have a recognizable actor playing the killer.

I'm mentioning it now because the season premiere is *right* up DL's alley: Nathan Lane is the main guest star, and the murder occurs due to what I can only describe as an etiquette-bitch meltdown, after a tall frau and her dudebro bf sit in front of him at a Broadway show, blocking his view & whining about needing to pee. Nathan has a *subscription*, goddammit! They pay dearly for their sins!

It's on Paramount+ if you have it, but also on CBS Thursday nights.

What actress did Leonardo Dicaprio film masturbating in front of a crowd at a party while he whispered in her ear in the 90s?

This is alleged in the book “Too real” by Dale Wheatley, the guy who made that embarrassingly terrible movie “Dons Plum” with Leo and Tobey in the 90s. L and T blocked the movie from being released as their careers were taking off and this guy has had an ax to grind ever since. He was part of Leo’s crew back the (this is pre pussy posse) and claims this “masturbation event” took place at his house (Dales) in his bedroom and the actress was one of the biggest TV actresses at the time and still a household name. Apparently actor Ethan Suplee of all people, filmed it or at least took some still photos according to court documents filed in relation to this movie not being released. He says Leo enjoyed humiliating her and was leading her on. He also insinuates that Leo/Toby were more than a little close in this book and also in past tweets.

Gay MAGA/travel influencer Garrett Bruno (@garrett.travels) was involved in a fatal car crash on 10/10 in West Hollywood. LA Sheriffs Dept is still investigating but have not filed charges. The WeHo times covered the accident but did not name Bruno, but he was outed in the comments section alongside allegations that Bruno was intoxicated and had killed the young woman seated in the passenger seat of the car he struck on Fountain ave (he was brought to the hospital in handcuffs). His IG went private after the accident but Bruno had undergone something of a public MAGA radicalization on IG in the last few weeks and had also shared aspirations of running for office in Florida and being financed by Keith Rabois, who he has fucked, and his husband Jacob Helberg. Any information on this pondscum and insight/pics re his MAGA coming out would be most appropriated.

A fresh new porn scandal involving North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson !

Stop us if you’ve heard this one before: an ardently antigay GOP politician is being accused of indulging in salacious behavior.

The latest antagonist for the tried-and-true tale is North Carolina Republican gubernatorial nominee Mark Robinson, who has an abhorrent history of insulting and demeaning LGBTQ+ people. The ultra-hateful man has called homosexuality an “abominable sin” and criticized the trans rights movement as “demonic.”

In addition, he’s labeled the queer community as a “Satanic cult of perversion” and said queer allies are “disciples of Satan.”

You get the picture. Mark Robinson is very, very passionate about hating gay people.

He’s also apparently very, very passionate about adult films… according to six former employees and regulars of local adult film stores.

The Assembly, a reputable digital magazine in North Carolina, recently published an expose on Robinson’s alleged history as a regular to adult film shops. A man named Louis Money, who worked in several of Greensboro’s “windowless, 24-hour video-pornography stores,” told the publication that Robinson was a frequent customer in the 1990s and early 2000s. He alleges the homophobic Lt. Gov. came in five nights a week, often watching the steamy videos in private booths.

Gee, Officer Krupke, where are you? Juvenile delinquents are out causing mayhem in NYC!

"Last year, there were 4,858 major crimes where a minor was accused or arrested, up from 3,543 in 2017 — a 37 percent increase."

"New York’s rise in youth crime reflects a national problem. While the overall number of violent crimes and homicides in America fell in 2023, arrests of juveniles for similar offenses increased substantially, according to the F.B.I.’s Uniform Crime Report, which collects statistics from around the country."

"“These are the future adults,” he said. “What are these kids going to be like when they’re 20 or 25 years old?”

"The police recently said a group of children, most from Venezuela and some as young as 11, were committing robberies at knife point in Central Park and Times Square."

"On Oct. 4, two boys, 12 and 13, were accused of assaulting David A. Paterson, a former New York governor, and his stepson as they walked through the Upper East Side."

"In that borough, 20 people under 18 had been charged this year with gun crimes through mid-October, with four charged in fatal shootings, according to the Bronx district attorney’s office. Thirty-four children had been shot so far this year, according to office numbers, four fatally."

'Lavish spending' at GLAAD: Swiss chalets, first-class flights, the Waldorf-Astoria and more

[quote]A light rain fell at the Zurich airport one Sunday morning in January 2023 as Sarah Kate Ellis made her way from a seat in Delta’s most exclusive cabin to a waiting Mercedes.

Poor Florida, Twas Good To Know You

But we're just not into you that much anymore.

[quote] In 2023, the Census reports, Florida’s net migration fell by half from the previous year. While in 2022 Florida netted almost 250,000 new Floridians from other states, the highest total since 2005, that number fell to just over 126,000 in 2023. More concerning, the number of people leaving the state (510,925) was the highest since the Great Recession in 2008. As of last year, more people are still moving to Florida than are leaving it, but that gap is quickly narrowing.

Diddy Tried 'More Than 10 Times' To Invite Princes Harry And William To His Parties

A former rep for Sean "Diddy" Combs confirmed earlier claims that Prince William and Prince Harry never accepted his numerous invites to his infamous parties.

The royal brothers reportedly refused to honor these invitations despite the rapper offering to pay all their logistic bills if they agreed to show up.

In an old interview, Sean "Diddy" Combs revealed that he chose to invite the brothers to his parties because they were "young bucks getting into trouble themselves."

After Diddy's arrest, claims about him inviting royal princes William and Harry to his parties emerged. While sources certified those claims to be true, they also noted that the princes never honored those invitations.

A former rep for the musician, Rob Shuter, has now confirmed that not only did Diddy try to invite William and Harry multiple times, the rapper was also "obsessed" with the royal brothers.

"Diddy was obsessed with Prince Harry and Prince William," Shutter told the BBC, while also revealing that Diddy tried "more than 10 times" to get the duo to attend his soirees.

He added about the rapper, "Diddy thinks of himself as a king, so it makes perfect sense that he would like to have two princes in his entourage. Harry and William never accepted the invites, they were never part of his world."

If Harry and William had accepted the invites, they would never have had to cater to their logistics, as Diddy had always offered to "cover their travel, lodging, and even pay for their security."

However, this mouth-watering offer couldn't get them to bite, and fortunately, the duo's decision has helped them avoid the drama currently surrounding the rapper.

According to journalist Christopher Andersen, the royal princes had "made plenty of headlines with their party animal antics," which seemed to have led Diddy to make "a point of inviting them to his parties."

Andersen told Fox News, "But those invitations were wisely turned down, and after William and Kate [Middleton] got engaged [in 2010], Diddy got the hint and stopped inviting them altogether."

Regarding Diddy's persistence with the invites, the rapper himself seemingly provided a reason during a 2011 appearance on "The Graham Norton Show."

During the episode, Diddy told Norton that he only tried to invite the brothers because he was drawn to their then-reputation as thrill-seekers.

The rapper said at the time, "Before, when they were young bucks growing up, and they were getting in a lot of trouble themselves, so, hey, I was like, 'Why don't you come hang out with me?'"

Diddy, however, noted that the pair were "off the list" of people he invites to his parties.

What’s going on with my mother?

I went to visit her recently, and she is absolutely obsessed with Trump. I don’t mean obsessed like the people DL are. It’s way deeper than that.

She would spend up to eight hours a day watching MSNBC, and when she wasn’t doing that, she was either taking some kind of online class where they were complaining about Trump or talking politics, or she was talking on the phone to a friend about Trump. And then we would go out to dinner and she would start complaining to me about Trump.

I’m thinking maybe this is a way for her to channel her frustration about something else. At one point, I even said to her “if you hate Trump so much why do you want to spend 12 hours a day hearing about him?” And she just got this look on her face like she didn’t know what to say. Visiting her was a painful experience. I dislike Trump as much as anyone else but I sure as hell don’t want to hear about him all day long.

You thought they would be major stars after watching them one role. You were wrong.

There are actors where the first time I saw them in roles of significance, I ran to IMDb to check their names. Some people are simply talented.

However.

There are many, many, more I thought would go on to get great roles but didn’t. Sure, many have enviable careers that 99% of actors would kill for. But I expected more. That they would have more buzz surrounding them. Maybe that they would be more be bigger stars, or work consistently with world class or be competing with A-Listers for the highest quality shows or movies. Certainly, that they would have good roles in stuff that I like.

Brianna Keilar and Boris Sanchez break down laughing over Trump watch story

A CNN investigation into “Swiss-made” watches being sold by former President Donald Trump led to an unexpectedly stimulating discovery.

Being the Republican presidential nominee hasn’t stopped Trump from hawking all kinds of products, including sneakers, Bibles, cryptocurrency, silver coins, and other items. Of particular interest to CNN reporters Steve Contorno and Scott Glover were the watches Trump sells. As it turns out, the watches were not actually made in Switzerland, which has strict rules on what products can be deemed Swiss-made.

Trump’s timepieces sell for hundreds of dollars, but one sells for $100,000. The website where they can be purchased describes them as “Swiss-made.”

However, CNN’s probe of the origin of Trump’s watches led them to a company called BestWachesOnEarth LLC, which has an address in a small town in Wyoming called Sheridan.

“[A] CNN investigation into the manufacturing and distribution of the Trump-branded timepieces dead-ended at an innocuous-looking shopping center in a small city in remote northern Wyoming, not far from the border of Montana,” the report stated, adding:

There, sharing a parking lot with a hodgepodge of businesses including an H&R Block, a Wendy’s fast-food restaurant and a “vape and hemp smoke shop,” is a nondescript office space that serves as the mailing address for TheBestWatchesOnEarth LLC, the company behind the new line of Trump watches. The building houses a daycare, but there is no sign of the watches Trump says, “puts you in a very exclusive club.”

CNN said that dozens of other companies claim the address, including the aforementioned Trump sneakers. Another company linked to the address is BestHoneyOnEarth.

Contorno joined Thursday’s CNN News Central, where he shared these findings with Boris Sanchez and Brianna Keilar.

“And I should mention, Boris, about that honey company, which, I left out the best detail,” Contorno said. “They sell ‘male enhancement honey,’ which is exactly what it sounds like.”

Sanchez and Keilar burst out laughing.

Diddy Accused of Sexually Assaulting 16-Year-Old Boy

Two weeks after Houston lawyer Tony Buzbee said he would soon be representing at least 120 accusers against Sean “Diddy” Combs, the attorney filed his first six sexual assault complaints on Monday — including one from a man who claims he was a teen at the time of his encounter with the music mogul.

All six lawsuits, which were obtained by TheWrap, were filed in the Southern District of New York per the Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act, with the allegations stemming from between 1995 and 2021. Buzbee is representing four John Does and two Jane Does in these cases.

One of the four anonymous male victims claims he was 16 years old when he was sexually assaulted at one of Combs’ White Parties in the Hamptons in 1998.

According to the then-teenage victim, he was invited to the party at Combs’ mansion by a mutual friend, where he bumped into the rapper (an apparent picture of the pair from the event in question is included in the legal documents). “Combs took an interest in John Doe” and they engaged in pleasant conversation about the entertainment industry, per the lawsuit.

“When John Doe admitted his voice was not great, Combs assured him that did not matter. Combs made clear that the only thing that mattered was having the right look for the industry, and with it, Combs could transform Doe — or anybody — into a star.”

However, “Combs abruptly told John Doe that he needed to drop his pants. John Doe, caught completely off guard, confusingly asked Combs to repeat himself. Combs made himself clear. He instructed John Doe to drop his pants and expose his penis so that Combs could inspect it, explaining it was a rite of passage and the route to becoming a star, and also as a way to prove himself,” the suit alleges.

“Out of fear, anxiety and the imbalanced power dynamic between himself and Combs, John Doe then dropped his pants and exposed his penis as Combs previously instructed,” it continues. “Combs moved closer and grabbed John Doe’s penis and genitals with his hand. He firmly cupped and held onto John Doe’s genitals for an extended period of time.

During this time, Combs moved his hand in such a fashion to manipulate John Doe’s genitals, squeezing and feeling them … Combs abruptly then let go of John Doe’s genitals and told him that his people would be in touch. Combs continued with his party as if nothing had happened, but for John Doe, everything had changed.”

“We will let the allegations in the filed complaints speak for themselves and will work to see that justice is done,” Buzbee shared in a statement to Rolling Stone. “We expect to be filing many more cases over the next several weeks naming Mr. Combs and others as defendants as we continue to gather evidence and prepare the filings.”

Meanwhile, Diddy’s attorney Erica Wolff issued the following statement to TMZ following Buzbee’s initial press conference: “As Mr. Combs’ legal team has emphasized, he cannot address every meritless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus. That said, Mr. Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors.

Mr. Buzbee has not yet filed a single case in any jurisdiction. Mr. Combs looks forward to proving his innocence and vindicating himself in court if and when claims are filed and served, where the truth will be established based on evidence, not speculation.”

Restored 1884 Victorian townhouse in San Francisco’s Mission District listed for $2 million

Located at 1180 Guerrero St., the architectural gem retains its original grand facade, moldings, woodwork and decorative fireplaces. Over the past four decades, “a battalion of period craftspeople” has restored other elements to their original splendor, according to Joel Luebkeman of Compass, the listing agent.

“I’ve walked into hundreds of Victorian homes in my career,” Luebkeman said in an email to the Chronicle. “But when I first walked through the imposing front doors of 1180 Guerrero, I was awestruck by the feeling I had been transported back in time to a Gilded Age townhouse on 5th Avenue.”

Colton Underwood and Jordan C. Brown Expecting First Baby Together

Colton Underwood and Jordan C. Brown are going to be parents!

The former Bachelor star, 32, announced he is expecting his first baby via surrogate with his husband, political and philanthropic strategist Jordan C. Brown, 38, in an interview with Men's Health. The couple is set to welcome a baby boy in early October.

Underwood tells PEOPLE that he and Brown, who just celebrated their first wedding anniversary on May 13, can’t wait to be fathers.

“That was one of the things we bonded over early in our relationship. We both wanted to be dads,” says Underwood. “But it's been such an incredible experience for us to go through this together, and I cannot wait to watch Jordan become a dad.”

In February, Underwood opened up about his path to fatherhood to PEOPLE, sharing that he was chronicling his journey to become a parent on a new podcast, Daddyhood. At the time, Underwood shared that he and Brown had embryos made and frozen and were currently undergoing testing with their surrogate, whose identity they are keeping private.

“I think outside of the LGBTQ+ matters — the obvious discrimination and what's at stake for us — straight couples too, need to stop putting the blame on the women. I think that's one thing that I could at least say, from two men going through this, is I've had some fertility issues and struggles, and I don't think a lot of men openly talk about that," Underwood shared.

“I mean right away, my husband gets his results back for his sperm count and he had incredible, great numbers, and I got mine back and all my sperm was dead. And I think immediately I was just like, 'Oh, what does this mean? It means I'm sterile and can't have kids now.' And it was not a great feeling," he added.

The couple first began their in vitro fertilization (IVF) and surrogacy journey two years ago, right around the time they also started to plan their wedding.

Hereditary peerage in the House of Lords is about to be DEAD to me

[quote]British lawmakers voted Tuesday to approve in principle a bill to strip hereditary aristocrats of the right to sit and vote in the House of Lords after more than 700 years. The government says the decision will complete a long-stalled reform of Parliament’s upper chamber and remove an “outdated and indefensible” relic of the past. Britain is one of only two countries – the other is Lesotho – with a hereditary element to its parliament.

[quote]In 1999 the Labour government of Tony Blair evicted most of the more than 750 hereditary peers from the Lords, though to avoid an aristocrats’ rebellion, 92 were allowed to remain temporarily. A quarter-century on, 88 hereditaries are still there, an all-male group with an average age of almost 70. When one dies or retires, their fellow bluebloods hold elections to replace them.

Tasteful Friends Reality Edition

I know Tasteful Friends is about aspirations for most of us, but here's a house many DLers could live in, one that's at the lower end of the price scale for coastal Eastern Massachusetts locations.

Beverly, MA. Easy commute from the North Shore to Boston by train (40 minutes.) This is a home many gay men could actually live in assuming you can afford the price. The asking is actually low: my guess is that the final bids (due tomorrow at 2 pm) will be higher and that it'll sell in the $700,000-plus range.

Nothing's perfect: it's close to the neighbors in a kid-centric neighborhood but the playground's not next door. Beverly's a nice town, but not, say, nearby Marblehead or Manchester-by-the-Sea. But it's one house that's truly in move-in condition. There's nothing except the purple paint in the pantry I'd need to change right away. I saw it yesterday.

I recommend trying the Walmart Pumpkin Sandwich Cookies this Fall season. I discovered them through a youtuber several years ago and they are very good. I have purchased them every year since.

A light whipped cream cheese frosting with a very slight hint of cinnamon between two soft, cakey pumpkin cookies.

The flavors are well balanced, not overpowering and not too weak. I've taken then to the Office and to get togethers and everyone has really liked them.

81-year-old votes for 1st time, says it's 'never, ever' too late

[quote]ByYi-Jin Yu

[quote] An 81-year-old Georgia woman voted for the first time in Covington on Oct. 16, one day after early voting began in Newton County.

[quote]Betty Cartledge told "Good Morning America" she and her late husband had never voted before, but this year, things changed. She said her husband died in April 2023, and now that she was on her own, she had started noticing the high cost of living more and more, and felt motivated to vote for change.

[quote]As early voting starts in Georgia, judge rules to guard against rogue election officials When Cartledge's niece Wanda Moore suggested she help her register to vote, Cartledge said she jumped at the chance.

[quote]"I can't read and write," Cartledge explained. "I just thought, well, then I can't go in and do that. I ain't got nobody to help me. But now I have, I got somebody to help me, to read it, to make sure I'm doing the right thing."

[quote] Betty Cartledge, 81, voted for the first time on Oct. 16, 2024 at LifePointe Church of Nazaren...Show more Cartledge and Moore both voted at Covington Mills Precinct at LifePointe Church of Nazarene, and Cartledge said it went smoothly.

[quote]"We went in and she told the lady I couldn't read and write, and she told her what to do," Cartledge recalled. "And I went over there, and I done it on my own. I done my own voting. I had nobody tell me who to vote for or what. She just showed me, read everything to me, and then I voted."

[quote]"I thought it was amazing," Cartledge added. "I just feel so good doing something for America."

[quote]Nearly 9 million have cast ballots as early voting starts across the US [quote]Moore, 65, said she has been voting in every presidential election since 1976 but accompanying her aunt to vote for the first time turned out to be the most meaningful voting experience for her so far.

[quote]"It was very, very touching because I think that's something that she had wanted to do all of her life but never had the opportunity to," Moore told "GMA." "And once she got the opportunity to, she thought it was a great, great thing, and it was great watching her."

[quote]Both Cartledge and Moore said they encourage fellow Americans to vote, even if they are unable to read or write like Cartledge or have any disability.

[quote]"Talk to [friends and family] and see if they'll help you out and go out there and do it. Do it for America. Do it for your country," Cartledge said, adding that it's "never, ever" too late to vote.

[quote]"It's very important for people that don't have the ability to read and write to know that their vote counts too. It's not an impossible thing," Moore said. "It's a very easy process, and all they have to do is have someone that will go with them and read to them and let them check their own boxes."

[quote]Cartledge said she hopes to vote again in the future.

[quote]"If I'm here next year, four years from now, I will be back," she said.

Tasteful friends: a 1924 co-op 2-bedroom apartment in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania $450,000

Located in the Shadyside neighborhood of Pittsburgh, the 1913 apartment has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, entry hall, living room, dining room, sunroom/den, kitchen, pantry, and balcony of the top (4th) floor of the building. The principal rooms have original mahogany decorative woodwork and built-in features; other rooms have painted woodwork and there are original hardwood floors throughout. The kitchen is a recent renovation; the pantry retains original cabinetry. In the basement is a private storage room and laundry (not clear if it's one space or two.)

It's a handsome building with the entrance recessed in a forecourt formed by the roughly U-shaped building, with landscaping front and rear. There's a large rear yard, but the yard description is faithful to its basic use and appearance (for me the biggest disappointment of a ncie building.) The apartment itself is quite nice, a good plan and some nice detailing, the kitchen big enough and with a pantry a nice bonus. The bedrooms and bathrooms are fine, and the apartment appears light and bright with lots of windows are many rooms with dual aspects.

HOA monthly fees are $943, which includes all utilities and property taxes.

(Pittsburgh real estate listings almost always avoid any indication of square footage.)

I'm fascinated by him because he's independent, he lives in an RV, he's fairly handy, and he seems really nice.

He has a mouse infestation in his camper, he doesn't really know how to drive, he can't cook for shit, and he's so clumsy!

Ethan also thinks that wet wipes constitute "taking a bath," and he's constantly breaking things in his camper.

I think he also has a few OCD type of phobias, which he hasn't really explained fully.

Nevertheless, I think he's adorable. And at least he has a boyfriend to keep him company.

Reddit: Who is the rudest celeb you have ever met? What happened?

A great thread that had my reading for hours. Tommy Lee Jones and Jared Leto come up with unsurprising regularity. Some, like Shaq have severe swings in reactions, some calling him the greatest, most friendly and others hating him. Michael Jordan and Kobe are not favorites either. This is a one of the best posts I've ever read on Musk:

Elon Musk. He stayed at a mountain resort that I worked at in 2018 . He was luckily only there for 3 days but he was an utter terror the entire time he was there.

He refused to be checked in at the reception area and demanded a private check in at his cabin which is fine but we ask ahead of time so we can staff properly for the later arrivals.

He asked for the youngest female concierge on staff to be sent to the check in with nobody else for "security" reasons. I took the check in myself instead of sending the 19 year old and took the largest and oldest driver I could find for security reasons.

He wanted the personal cell phone numbers for all female concierge staff. I said that is against out policy and set him up with the resort app so he could contact whoever was on duty for a prompt answer.

He harassed every single female employee so nastily that by the time he had been there for 12 hours every department switched him to only male staff. He didn't tip any of the wait staff or guides for any activities. He booked a private horseback ride that a wrangler was brought in specially for the day and then refused to go because he didn't like the colors of any of the horses available , and he wanted to ride a really "butch and muscular" horse. He meant a draft horse, which we had for pulling wagons but none for riding.

He also had insane demands. He wanted a 80 year old beautiful ponderosa pine cut down because he didn't like how the light hit it at sunset. He wanted shock collars put on the squirrels to stop them from being too loud. And he wanted us to trap a grizzly bear and bring it to his cabin for a few hours so he could take pictures and study it.

He was the rudest, stupidest and most arrogant POS I have ever encountered.

JANNE PUHAKKA GAY EX-HOCKEY PLAYER DEAD AT 29

Former hockey pro Janne Puhakka -- Finland's first openly gay player -- was found shot to death on Sunday ... and police believe his partner was behind the killing.

Puhakka was only 29.

According to a report out of Finland, Janne was found in his Henttaa Espoo home ... where he lived with his partner, 66-year-old veterinarian Rolf Nordmo.

Police said the death was a homicide and suspected Nordmo was the shooter. He was arrested at the scene without incident.

The murder is still under investigation.

Puhakka -- who started playing hockey when he was six -- launched his major league career in 2015 and played for the Blues, Espoo United, and Rapaces de Gap.

He was also on the national team roster and won the bronze in the Under 18 World Championship in 2013.

Puhakka opened up about his sexuality after hanging up his skates, revealing he had concealed being gay to avoid scrutiny in the sports world.

Puhakka was the first ice hockey player in the Finnish major leagues to come out as gay. In 2022, he wrote a memoir, "Ulos Kopista."

"We send our sincere condolences to his family, his relatives and all his former teammates," the Rapaces de Gap team said in a statement.

"Presenting in the team during the 2017/2018 season, Janne marked the staff and his teammates with his kindness and team spirit."

Nordmo has not been convicted of a crime.

What the hell is going on in the song “Band of Gold?”

This song has always confused the fuck out of me. Sure we can just say “she married a closeted gay man and that’s why he’s not loving her,” but … WHAT? In 1970? I’m sorry but homosexuality was still taboo in 1970 and pop songs were not being written about these sort of cover marriages.

Assuming this is true, what the fuck is actually going on in the song? They stayed in separate rooms on their honeymoon? She wants him to live her, as he “tried before?”

Maybe I’m just confused — it wouldn’t be the first time with this song! For years I heard her sing

[Quote] You took me from the shelter of my mother, I had never known

And I thought, what? She never knew her mother? That line is sung as a single lyric and is followed by a beat so it wasn’t until I read the lyrics that I saw the words “I had never known” were meant to be paired with the separate lyric “or loved any other”

Anyway, what’s going on in the song, and don’t say closeted marriage unless you want a slap.

I Am So Sick Of Ben Meiselas & His YouTube Channel Meidas Touch

I started out loving him and his YT videos. But it was become painfully obvious his main objective is to make as much money as humanly possible. I don't think he's even practicing law any longer. He posts far too many videos every day and every one of them paint imminent doom for Donald Trump at any second. He exaggerates everything. Trump makes a post on his social media network and capitalizes some words and Meiselas translates that into 'TRUMP IN A BLIND RAGE AND ON THE VERGE OF TOTAL COLLAPSE'. Yeah, we all know Trump is mentally ill, but he'll probably be around for quite a few more years, if we're unlucky.

I see what they're doing now. They're doing whatever they can to keep their viewers always coming back day after day to see if Trump's imminent collapse and doom has happened, only to find out it's just another day of same ol' same ol.

I'm already on an emotional roller coaster over what's gone wrong with this country and I have high hopes for Harris//Walz. But I'm rational enough to know that the worst that could happen might just happen. And it terrifies me to think of what the future will be like if Trump wins. Meiselas and his YT channel are not helping me at all. In fact I believe they're making it worse.

Obviously I need to unsubscribe from his and all the other anti-Trump YT channels and try to forget about it as much as possible and wait for the outcome. There are days when I think if Trump wins I will likely have a heart attack (I'm 71) and die, which may be for the best. I don't want to think of living in another Trump America.

Sorry for the rant. Just had to get it out and off my mind.

Trump Spews Profanity and Bizarre Insults at Catholic Charity Dinner

The Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner, a decades-old annual event in New York City, is typically an evening of lighthearted fare, with political and cultural leaders taking turns poking fun at one another and themselves.

But former President Donald Trump landed like a bomb onstage at the charity event on Thursday night, delivering a profanity-laden speech that saw him alternate between raging about the unfairness of his legal situation and taking hostile swipes at his enemies.

Trump lashed out at President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, and the transgender community over the course of roughly 30 minutes.

The white tie dinner, in which money is raised for Catholic charities, has customarily marked the last time both major party presidential candidates appear on the same stage before the election. Harris said last month that a conflicting campaign event would keep her from attending the event, something that Trump repeatedly seized on in his speech.

“But I must say, I was shocked when I heard that Kamala was skipping the Al Smith dinner,” he said. “I’d really hoped that she would come, because we can’t get enough of hearing her beautiful laugh. She laughs like crazy. We would recognize it anyplace in this room.”

He was frequently economical with his words, jabbing at Harris and Biden with a single insult. “We have someone in the White House who can barely talk, barely put together two coherent sentences, who seems to have mental faculties of a child, is a person that has no intelligence whatsoever—but enough about Kamala Harris,” Trump quipped.

The former president suggested he couldn’t wait to wash his hands of the vice president after Election Day. “When we hopefully win, dispose of her, I’ll like her a lot, but right now I can’t stand her,” he said.

Trump’s speech veered into transphobia as he speculated on Harris’ election chances. Addressing Schumer, he said, “He looks glum. But look on the bright side. Consider how woke your party has become, if she loses, you still have a chance to become the first woman president.”

The former president cracked another transphobic joke later in targeting Harris’ running mate. “I used to think the Democrats were crazy for saying men have periods, but then I met Tim Walz,” Trump said.

He and Schumer were photographed together by the Associated Press as the dinner ended, speaking while seated at a table. The New York Post reported that Schumer and Trump had been assigned seats close to each other, “with only Cardinal Dolan between them.”

Dolan was in the audience as Trump swore up a storm onstage.

“I don’t give a s--- if this is comedy or not,” he said.

But the most important person who figured into Trump’s speech was, of course, himself. “I’m supposed to tell a few self-deprecating jokes,” he told the audience. “So here it goes,” he said, pausing for effect. “Nope. I’ve got nothing. I’ve got nothing!”

Trump added, “I guess I just do not see the point in taking shots at myself when other people have been shooting at me for a long time.”

Aaron Rodgers has lost friends, allies, millions over his COVID-19 beliefs

Aaron Rodgers hasn't been able to share his opinions on "The Pat McAfee Show" for a few weeks when his weekly appearances ended for the season last month following the controversy with late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel.

That doesn't mean the New York Jets quarterback has gone silent. He's gone to another friend and podcast to dive into a bevy of topics: "The Joe Rogan Experience." His episode dropped on Spotify Wednesday.

For over two hours, the four-time NFL MVP, whose positions about current events and conspiracies have been in the open in recent years, and the popular-yet-controversial podcast host provided their takes on the world's problems.

One subject they touched on, not surprisingly, was COVID-19. And Rodgers, again, claimed he won't be quiet about the topic.

For over three years, Rodgers' views on COVID-19 and vaccines have been central to his message when he's not on the football field.

"I’m going to continue talking about this because it’s important to me," Rodgers told Rogan. "I don’t want the memories to be lost. I don’t want what I went through to get brushed over. And also I don’t give a (expletive)."

Rodgers said his opinions about the pandemic have cost him.

"Look at my situation, I lost friends, allies in the media, millions of dollars in sponsorship because I talked about what worked for me in my own beliefs and my own health reasons why I didn’t get vaccinated," Rodgers told Rogan.

What's Rodgers' connection to Rogan and how has he expressed his views about COVID-19 in recent years? Here's a recap and how it weaved into his lengthy chat with Rogan:

Rodgers, of course, first drew a firestorm of attention during the 2021 NFL season for his positions around COVID-19. It dates to when he insinuated he was vaccinated during a Green Bay Packers training camp press conference after he said he was "immunized."

However, his actual vaccination status didn't come to light until his positive diagnosis in November 2021 since there were different thresholds for unvaccinated players in returning to play.

He then went on McAfee's show a few days later and started to unload on the NFL for what he called its "draconian" health and safety protocols that year, "woke culture," revealed that he sent the league a 500-page report on why he should have been considered vaccinated due to his homeopathic treatments, and said there was a witch hunt for unvaccinated players.

In the years since, Rodgers has championed other athletes who have been against the vaccine and recently has been vocal about Dr. Anthony Fauci and Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end who has advocated for the Pfizer vaccine.

"You stand for something, you stand courageously for what you believe in or the opposite side of that is saying nothing or being a coward," Rodgers said to Rogan. "I wasn’t willing to do that. Say whatever you want about the way I went about doing it."

Rodgers first made public his friendship with Rogan on McAfee's show days after he tested positive for COVID-19 in 2021.

He said Rogan gave him medical recommendations on treatments, which included ivermectin, an anti-parasitic drug that has not been authorized or approved for use in preventing or treating COVID-19 by the FDA. Rodgers again vouched for the drug during his appearance on Rogan's show this week. Rogan has been a critic of COVID vaccines and two years ago 270 doctors called for Spotify to take action against Rogan over narratives his guests had shared about the vaccine.

Nevertheless, Rodgers praised the longform conversations that Rogan has on his podcast. Rogan's podcast is the most-listened to podcast on Spotify the last three years and he recently signed a new multimillion dollar deal. Besides hosting the podcast, Rogan is a longtime UFC commentator and stand-up comedian.

Turkish prosecutor seeks 500 years in jail for gang behind infant deaths

[quote]A comprehensive 494-page indictment against 47 suspects, including health workers, reveals that infants were transferred to selected hospitals in Istanbul instead of facilities that could provide appropriate care. Currently, 22 suspects have already been arrested.

[quote]The gang is believed to have exploited this scheme to secure higher payments from Turkey's social security system by opting for more expensive treatments. This alleged fraud has reportedly resulted in at least 12 infant deaths, primarily due to extended stays in neonatal intensive care units or infections. Members of the gang, which includes nurses and doctors, would subsequently share the profits generated from these fraudulent activities.

[quote]The prominent American journalist and historian Anne Applebaum urged continued support for Ukraine as she accepted a prestigious German prize on Sunday, arguing that pacifism in the face of aggression is often nothing more than appeasement. “If there is even a small chance that military defeat could help end this horrific cult of violence in Russia, just as military defeat once brought an end to the cult of violence in Germany, we should take it,” Applebaum said.

[quote]Applebaum made her appeal to an audience in Frankfurt, where she was awarded the Peace Prize of the German Book Trade. She was joined by her husband, Polish Foreign Minister Radek Sikorski, who like his wife is a strong voice on the international stage for supporting Ukraine as it defends itself against Russia's brutal invasion.

Malaria in Egypt is DEAD to me

[quote]“Malaria is as old as Egyptian civilization itself, but the disease that plagued pharaohs now belongs to its history," said WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. Egypt was the third country to be certified in the WHO's Eastern Mediterranean Region, following the United Arab Emirates and Morocco. Globally, 44 countries and one territory have reached this milestone.

[quote]Egyptian authorities launched their first efforts to stamp out the deadly mosquito-borne infectious disease nearly 100 years ago. Certification is granted when a country proves that the transmission chain is interrupted for at least the previous three consecutive years. Malaria kills at least 600,000 people every year, nearly all of them in Africa.

The 48-year-old former cyclist, who is one of Britain’s most successful and recognizable Olympians, shared his diagnosis with The Sunday Times newspaper, saying that he initially went to the hospital last September after feeling some pain in his shoulder.

A scan found a tumor there, before a second scan found primary cancer in his prostate which had spread to his bones. The scans found tumors in his shoulder, pelvis, hip, spine and rib.

“The Golden Girls” is getting a mystery novel series

“Murder by Cheesecake” is coming out early next year.

The first novel in the all-new Golden Girls Cozy Mystery Series!

When Dorothy’s obnoxious date is found dead in a hotel freezer, it not only ruins a gorgeous cheesecake but threatens the elaborate St. Olaf–themed wedding Rose is hosting.

Things are heating up, and not just because of Blanche’s hot flashes. Rose’s cousin is eloping to Miami, and Rose is playing host. If she can’t balance the groom’s family’s snobbery against the traditional St. Olaf wedding week guidelines, her hometown may never accept her cousin again!

Dorothy quickly realizes she needs a date with whom she can exchange wedding-related wisecracks. Turning to a newfangled VHS dating service, she believes she’s found the ideal conversationalist. Unfortunately, what looks good on TV can actually be a total jerk in real life. It seems she’ll just have to enjoy the company of Sophia, Blanche, and whomever Blanche has targeted for a hookup.

As the Girls all pitch in, Rose is thrilled that the tea-and-fish-themed kickoff event is perfect, not a herring out of place. That is until Dorothy’s date is found dead—face-planted in an otherwise scrumptious-looking cheesecake. With every guest a suspect (especially Dorothy) and a marriage on the line, the four besties must ID the real killer, get the should-be-happy couple down the aisle, and make sure nobody from St. Olaf gets lost in the wilds of Miami. It’s up to the Golden Girls to sleuth out a way for friendship and love to win the day!

The popularity of 'plant based meat alternatives' is waning

Just a few years ago, the popularity and sales growth of 'plant based alternative meat' was skyrocketing. Gen X, and Millennials couldn't wait to bite into meat alternatives, including substitutes for chicken and beef. But prices started off high and remain high (a $4.20 price gap between 'real meat' and 'plant based alternative meat') and sales have dropped. Research has found the meat alternatives have not caught on with Boomers and Zoomers.

In 2020, at the start of the pandemic, sales soared to $1.8 Billion in the USA. Over the past few years, sales have been dropping - the most current sales figures have the US down to $1.3 Billion in 'meat alternative' purchases.

The percentage of households purchasing plant-based meats at the market is declining. Though Millennials and Gen Xers (with higher incomes) make frequent purchases, the meat alternative trend has not been a hit with the up and coming 'Zoomers' who find the grocery store items 'too expensive'.

A boy followed me into the restroom one morning. I thought nothing of it. He cornered me and then he pulled out a knife and stuck it at my chest. He said.” I want that jacket and I want it now. I said, get that fucking knife away from me before I turn it around and put it in your eyeball. He was stunned. He said who the fuck are you? Said who the fuck are you right back at him. Then I shoved him back. Hard. He flew about 6 feet and landed on his ass with the knife still in his hand. He got up, called me a fucking bitch and ran out of the bathroom. I just stood there in the mirror, wondering what was happening looking back I don’t blame him. He was desperate and he just wanted my coat. And mine was the coolest jacket in the school.

1,200 Walgreen's Stores will soon be DEAD TO ME !

Walgreens Boots Alliance (WBA) announced more store closures Tuesday, as the retail pharmacy giant continues to face pressure from the growth of online prescription delivery platforms and ongoing retail constraints.

Walgreens will close 500 stores next year, toward the end of the year, and reach a total of 1,200 store closings in the next three years, according to company executives on a fourth quarter earnings call today.

The number had not been previously announced, but Walgreens indicated up to 2,000 store closures coming during an earnings call in June. Walgreens stock jumped more than 12% in trading Tuesday on the news — signaling the move was no surprise, and even welcome, to investors.

The company announced fiscal fourth quarter earnings in line with expectations, with a loss per share of $3.48 compared to $0.21 in the same quarter in 2024. Revenues, meanwhile, increased 6% year over year to $37.5 billion.

Matthew Perry’s Executor pays off actor’s debts, ready to pay out millions to family

Matthew Perry's longtime manager, who was appointed as executor of his estate, revealed she has settled all debts and his estate is ready to be closed, In Touch can exclusively report.

In Touch has obtained the final accounting report submitted in Matthew's probate case. Lisa Ferguson, Matthew's longtime business manager who was appointed executor of his estate, revealed the actor left behind assets totaling $1,596,914.47.

Lisa said there have been no creditor's claims filed and no unpaid creditor's claims. "The estate is solvent," the executor said.

Lisa said she did receive written demands for payments. She said all debts were handled without the need of the court's intervention.

The report noted, "An extension for filing the federal estate tax return has been timely filed and Petitioner has made sufficient payments for the estate taxes estimated to be due. Petitioner will pay any additional estate taxes determined to be due, in her capacity as Trustee of the Alvy Singer Living Trust dated June 2, 1999, as amended."

Lisa said all personal taxes, income taxes and all other taxes owed were paid. She said she has not sold any of Matthew's assets. The beneficiaries of Matthew's estate are his father, John Perry, his mother, Suzanne Morrison, his ex-girlfriend Rachel Dunn, half-sister Emily Morrison, half-sister Caitlin Morrison, half-sister Madeline Morrison, half-sister Maria Perry and William Morrison

Lisa asked the court to sign off on the final report and close the probate case. She also asked to be paid $28,000 for her services.

As In Touch previously reported, Matthew was found unresponsive in the hot tub at his L.A. mansion after an apparent drowning on October 28, 2023. He was 54 years old at the time of his death.

Back in March, Matthew's team filed documents over his estate. The filing revealed that the actor created a will in 2009. He also created The Alvy Singer Living Trust, where he placed the majority of his assets.

Matthew asked that the trust be run by Lisa and Robin Ruzan, who happens to be actor Mike Myers' ex-wife.

Matthew's personal property, that was not already placed in the trust, was listed as $1 million. The rest of his property, including his home, are likely already in the trust.

‘Exhausted’ Trump Can’t Make It Through Interview in His Home

Donald Trump didn’t even have to leave his building for an interview that streamed live on his friend and loyal supporter Dan Bongino’s video podcast Friday morning. But he still had trouble making it to the end of what may have been intended to be a longer sit-down.

After vamping for more than 30 minutes in Trump Tower as he waited for the ex-president to show up, Bongino began by boasting to the president about the “super, extra MAGA” crowd that tunes into his show. “We’re like the darkest MAGA of all,” Bongino said in an attempt to out-do Elon Musk.

At one point in the low-energy interview, Trump offered up insights such as how “amazed” he was that “king of woke” Harvey Weinstein got “schlonged.” But it was his final moment with Bongino that caught the eye of Kamala Harris’ social media team.

“Trump abruptly ends his live interview after it is reported that he is canceling interviews because he is ‘exhausted,’” @KamalaHQ tweeted, referring to a new report from Politico that the Republican candidate is “exhausted and refusing interviews” with less than 3 weeks to go until Election Day.

After about half an hour, as Bongino tried to ask another question, Trump said, “Hey, Dan, off the record, I gotta get going,” seeming not to realize the interview was airing live.

Bongino apologized to both Trump and his viewers for the abrupt end to the interview and let his guest go, but not before making him sign a baseball that he said he planned to auction off for charity.

“Pretty good, just like the old days,” Trump said from his chair as Bongino stood up and admired the signature.

Then, shortly after this article was published, Bongino sent the Daily Beast what he described as “receipts” showing Trump did not end the interview early (along with the charming note, “Does your mother tell her friends she has no living children out of embarrassment for having spawned such an embarrassing piece of s—t?”)

But in the screenshot of an email in which Trump’s team confirmed the interview, it clearly shows it was meant to be an hour long. Instead of staying for the full time he agreed to be live with Bongino and pushing back his next event, Trump ended the sit-down after a little more than 30 minutes had elapsed.

"According to authorities," reads the poster shared by Black and Missing, "Zelig was last seen driving in the Congaree National Park area, where his vehicle was found."

His family members initially believed he may have been in a car crash due to an alert from his phone.

“Around 9:50 Thursday morning, he left just normally as he would,” Williams’ aunt Christine McLaughlin Barber told local South Carolina TV station WACH. “About 10 minutes later, we received an SOS ping from his phone from one of his friends in New York, indicating a crash.”

However, they have since ruled out a car accident, according to the outlet.

While authorities search for the actor, his Broadway colleagues—including Hugh Jackman, who worked with Williams on the 2019 concert tour “The Man. The Music. The Show"—are urging anyone with information to contact the Richland County Sheriff's Office.

“Zelig we love you and are praying for your safe return,” Jackman wrote on his Instagram Story Oct. 10, per Us Weekly. “Please pass this message on!!!”

As for his family, they're also asking local residents to report any possible info on his whereabouts.

"Words can't express what our family is going through right now," Barber wrote on Facebook Oct. 10. "Please continue to share his photos and videos. The more we share the more people can get the word out to other states/countries."

She added, "Please continue to pray pray pray for Zelig to come home safe. WE LOVE YOU ZELIG."

In addition to playing Jackson 5 member Marlon Jackson in the Michael Jackson musical, Williams was also cast in Hamilton in 2015 as an ensemble performer.

Earlier this month, he celebrated a more personal milestone by ringing in his 28th birthday.

"28 only feels like a new thing because 27 I gave my full yes to Christ," Williams shared on Instagram Sept. 11. "This yes is a daily yes. Yes, I’ll follow you. Yes, I’ll stop following my old ways. Yes, I’ll praise you. Yes, I’ll change this and that. Yes, I’ll listen. Yes, I’ll let go. I only say yes because of His goodness and love for me. He is unmatched. Thank you, Jesus for being good to me this year and keeping me in all my ways."

SS United States Must VACATE

The SS United States, a 1,000-foot vessel that still holds the transatlantic speed record it broke in 1952, must leave its South Philadelphia berth of more than a decade by Sept. 12, said a federal judge Friday.

The decision by U.S. District Judge Anita B. Brody put an end to a years-old rent dispute that culminated in a two-day January bench trial between the SS United States Conservancy, a steward of the ship, and its Pier 82 landlord, Penn Warehousing.

Tensions came to a boil in August 2021, when Penn Warehousing doubled its daily dockage fee for what was once known as the “Queen of the Seas” to $1,700, an increase the conservancy refused to accept, continuing to pay its previous rate, set in 2011. Penn Warehousing terminated the lease in March 2022 with a written notice, then took the conservancy to court, with the conservancy filing a counterclaim.

During the trial, attorneys for both sides tried to bend the vagueness of the original berthing agreement in their favor. Brody, who’d encouraged the parties to settle instead of leaving it up to her, ultimately gave each side a partial victory in her decision.

She took note of two key omissions in the original berthing agreement. There were no provisions for any change in the “lay up dockage fee” or provisions on how either party could end the relationship save for the vessel’s departure. Penn Warehousing’s demand for increased dockage fees with a 14-days notice “finds no support in the Berthing Agreement or contract law,” she wrote, and the conservancy’s failure to pay the new rate did not amount to a breach of the 2011 agreement or entitle its landlord to damages.

Still, Brody wrote that under Pennsylvania contract law, the berthing agreement is terminable at will with reasonable notice, which Penn Warehousing had issued in March 2022.

Susan Gibbs, conservancy president and granddaughter of the ship’s designer, said in a statement that the conservancy “was vindicated in not being compelled to pay a large sum of back rent.” Yet she lamented the ticking clock the conservancy is now under.

“The judge’s decision gives us a very limited window to find a new home for the SS United States and raise the resources necessary to move the ship and keep her safe,” she wrote.

The decision gives the conservancy about 90 days to find a new home. In addition to finding a location, Gibbs said the conservancy would need funds for insurance, tugs, surveys, and dock preparations for a move.

Penn Warehousing takes no joy in the victory, attorney Craig Mills said in an emailed statement.

“The best hope of everyone involved was that the Conservancy could successfully repurpose the ship,” he said. “But after decades of decay and delay, it is time to acknowledge the unavoidable and return Pier 82 to productive commercial service.”

One Direction pays tribute to Liam Payne: 'We will miss him terribly'

Former One Direction stars paid tribute to fellow member Liam Payne, who died Oct. 16 after falling from his third story hotel room in Argentina, according to state police. He was 31.

Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan, and Harry Styles shared a joint statement on the official One Direction Instagram account on Thursday.

"We're completely devastated by the news of Liam's passing," they said. "In time, and when everyone is able to, there will be more to say. But for now, we will take some time to grieve and process the loss of our brother, who we loved dearly."

Liam Payne died of multiple traumas, internal and external bleeding: Preliminary autopsy report

"The memories we shared with him will be treasured forever," they continued. "For now, our thoughts are with his family, his friends, and the fans who loved him alongside us. We will miss him terribly."

"We love you Liam," they said at the end of their statement before co-signing it from all four of them.

Separately, Tomlinson also shared a moving post about Payne on Instagram with a photo and said he "lost a brother."

"Liam was somebody I looked up to everyday, such a positive, funny, and kind soul," he said. "I first met Liam when he was 16 and I was 18, I was instantly amazed by his voice but more importantly as time went on I got a chance to see the kind brother I'd longed all my life for."

Tomlinson went on to share how Payne was an "incredible songwriter" and in his opinion, "the most vital part of One Direction."

He ended his message with a message to Payne directly and told him that he is "beyond lucky to have had you in my life" and that he's "struggling with the idea of saying goodbye."

"I'm so grateful that we got even closer since the band, speaking on the phone for hours , reminiscing about all the thousands of amazing memories we had together is a luxury I thought I'd have with you for life," he said.

Tomlinson also vowed to be there for Payne's son, Bear.

"I want you to know that if Bear ever needs me I will be the Uncle he needs in his life and tell him stories of how amazing his dad was," he said.

In his own post, Malik also shared a message to Payne with a photo of the both of them, telling him what he meant to him.

"Liam, I have found myself talking out loud to you, hoping you can hear me, I can't help but think selfishly that there was so many more conversations for us to have in our lives," he began. "I never got to thank you for supporting me through some of the most difficult times in my life. When I was missing home as a 17 yr old kid you would always be there with a positive outlook and reassuring smile and let me know you were my friend and that I was loved."

The "ROOM UNDER THE STARS" artist added that while they would disagree at times, he "always secretly respected" him. He added that when it came to music, Payne was "most qualified in every sense."

He ended his message by saying, "I lost a brother when you left us and can't explain to you what l'd give to just give you a hug one last time and say goodbye to you properly and tell you that I loved and respected you dearly."

"I hope that wherever you are right now you are good and are at peace and you know how loved you are," Malik added.

An Instagram post from Styles followed with a message remembering Payne's character and the time they spent together in the band.

"I am truly devastated by Liam's passing," the "As It Was" singer began. "His greatest joy was making other people happy, and it was an honour to be alongside him as he did it."

"Liam lived wide open, with his heart on his sleeve, he had an energy for life that was infectious," he continued. "He was warm, supportive, and incredibly loving. The years we spent together will forever remain among the most cherished years of my life."

At the end of his message, he said his "heart breaks for Karen, Geoff, Nicola and Ruth, his son Bear, and all those around the world who knew and loved him, as I did."

"I will miss him always, my lovely friend," Styles said.

L.A.'s quake mystery: 2024 brings the most seismic activity in decades. Why now?

It's not your imagination: The ground beneath Southern California has been particularly unsteady as of late, with the region experiencing more moderate-sized earthquakes this year than it has in decades.

What precisely is fueling the sequence of shakers is not entirely clear, and officials warn that prior seismic activity does not necessarily mean more powerful temblors are imminent. But the series of modest shakers have many wondering what is going on.

"Earthquakes pop off around the state, and it's a little bit like popcorn that they hit — sometimes they bunch up for reasons that we don't understand," said Susan Hough, seismologist for the U.S. Geological Survey.

By the count of seismologist Lucy Jones, a Caltech research associate, Southern California has felt 15 independent seismic sequences this year, with at least one magnitude 4 or higher earthquake. That's the highest annual total in the last 65 years, surpassing the 13 seen in 1988.

The most recent — a magnitude 4 — struck before dawn Sunday near Ontario International Airport. Just in Ontario, one of the most populous cities in San Bernardino County, there have been five earthquakes of magnitude 3 or higher over the past month.

The Malibu area has been another hot spot. There was a magnitude 4.6 earthquake on Feb. 9, strong enough to toss items off a counter; and a magnitude 4.7 on Sept. 12 — startling enough that the city's mayor and his wife dove under their kitchen table.

Eastside L.A. was rattled by a magnitude 4.4 earthquake centered in El Sereno on Aug. 12 and a magnitude 3.4 on June 2.

A magnitude 5.2 earthquake, the strongest to strike the region in three years, shook Southern California on Aug. 6, with an epicenter northwest of the Grapevine. Another widely felt quake, magnitude 4.9, struck on July 29 about 13 miles northeast of Barstow.

The series of seismic disturbances has shaken the nerves of some Southern Californians — serving as an unpleasant reminder of the omnipresent threat of the Big One.

But experts caution that the latest quakes don't provide any additional clarity on the potential timing of such a cataclysm.

"Seismologists have spent decades trying to read the tea leaves to look for patterns. The seismic network was installed in Southern California 100 years ago because scientists thought that small earthquakes would show patterns before the big earthquakes happened. And that just didn't work out," Hough said.

One thing has been clear: "Nobody has found patterns that are statistically meaningful before big earthquakes happen," she said.

Ugh, Mice

I was yelling at my husband for buying cheap small garbage bags because every time I opened the kitchen sink cabinet,the bag wasn’t properly in the frame. At bottom of my shopping list Friday I see “mousetrap?” written.

“Why mousetrap”?

“Well,I think I see little teethmarks on the bottom of the garbage bag under the sink.”

Open the cabinet, pull out freestanding metal shelves and everything stored in them (cleanser, Brillo, cascade) and I see a big white paper towel in the corner. I pull the pepper towel and behind it I see piles of mouse poo and the very large hole around the sink pipes. Smart little bastards, they pulled the paper towel out of the garbage and hid their entry/exit space. And their poo.

I have 3 cats. I thought mice were supposed to be terrified of the smell of cats. And believe me, overnight those cats make smells in their litter boxes. I hate to kill things. I’ve been leaving the kitchen cabinet door ajar for the cats, but I think my barricade of metal shelves will prevent cats from getting near the mice. I put paper towels down to catch poo and I’m still finding some. They’re not afraid

New NRA Chief, Doug Hamlin, exposed for brutal torture and murder of pet cat

'According to a Monday report from The Guardian, the National Rifle Association’s recently crowned CEO, Doug Hamlin, once pleaded no contest to having brutally tortured a cat to death alongside several of his fraternity brothers at the University of Michigan. In 1980, Hamlin and four of his Alpha Delta Phi fraternity brothers were sentenced to 200 hours of community service and a monetary fine after brutally murdering the organization’s pet cat, BK. At the time, Hamlin served as Alpha Delta Phi’s chapter president. According to contemporaneous news reports obtained by The Guardian, in December 1979 the group of men — allegedly upset with BK for not using his litter box — cut off BK’s paws before stringing him up and setting him on fire, ultimately killing him. A passerby who heard BK’s screams as he was being tortured notified police. Hamlin and his fraternity brothers were ultimately expelled from Alpha Delta Phi, but not from the university, and their records were expunged after completing their sentences.'

Former "Bachelorette" contestant Josh Seiter says he has received a lot of vitriol as he transitions

Josh Seiter, a former contestant on "The Bachelorette," has allegedly faced "vitriolic" backlash from the "far left" after coming out as transgender earlier this summer.

"Ironically, I’ve found that the far left and the LGBTQ community have been some of the most vitriolic and mean towards me throughout all of this," Seiter told "The Daily Mail."

"I haven’t been met with acceptance, tolerance and open arms like the left loves to preach about," the former "Bachelorette" contestant added.

"I have struggled with my gender identity—& resulting feelings of guilt and shame-for as long as I can remember. I spent the last three decades taking great pains to keep this side of me private," the Chicagoan shared on Instagram on May 20.

"I ask for your thoughts and prayers-and patience-as I transition. I know it will take time for everyone, including myself, to adjust. I simply ask that you accept me now, just as you did before," he continued.

The Chicago-Kent College of Law grad has drawn skepticism for choices like electing to keep facial hair while transitioning to a desire to use women’s restrooms. The creator also took heat by wanting to date with values rooted in traditionalism.

"Dates can be so cheap. The last couple of dates that I’ve gone on, I’ve expected the guy to pay because I feel like the man should pay for the first date, and they just don’t want to," Seiter said in a video posted on Instagram last month.

Sitting there after the bill came, Seiter claimed to tell a dinner-mate "the guy should pay first," to which the date replied, "in that case, you should pay." Seiter added a desire to be treated "like a woman."

Users flocked to the comments with criticism of his post.

BARGAIN BIN ALERT: "Melania" flops bigly in first week book sales

The just released memoir by former First Lady Melania Trump proves to be a 'disaster', according to tracking from Circana Book Scan. In it's debut week, the wife of Presidential candidate Donald Trump sold a paltry 85,000 copies of the hardcover book titled 'Melania'. In comparison, former First Lady Michelle Obama sold 1.4 million in the first week with her memoir, 'Becoming', in November 2018. By November 2019, it had sold 11.5 million copies.

Over at Amazon, “Melania” is a dud on Amazon’s Kindle e-books at number 161. Amazon lists a large print paperback at 6,856. No audio book is available.

Donald Trump boasted at the Al Smith dinner that Melania Trump’s book, “Melania,” is number 1 on the NY Times best seller list.

But that will be for one week only.

“Melania” has not made it to number 1 on USA Today, Amazon, or at Barnes & Noble. It’s been outsold by Bob Woodward’s “War” and by Elvis Presley’s daughter, Lisa Marie Presley’s posthumous memoir.

At Barnes and Noble, “Melania” is number 40.

The Times list is ten days old when it appears. Initial sales and back orders propelled “Melania” to number 1. But the momentum wasn’t there.

Giorgia Meloni’s iron fist: Prison for blocking a road and chemical castration for rapists

[quote]Meloni’s security decree has been met with unusually strong opposition from the country’s judiciary. Fabrizio Vanorio, a public prosecutor from Naples, warned: “It provides for technically fascist rules. If approved, it would return Italy to an authoritarian criminal law similar to that of the Mussolini years or, to give a more modern example, yo that of Orbán’s Hungary.”

Barbra Streisand to release another 'Duets' album this winter

Duets with Adele, Arianna Grande and Miley Cyrus have also been talked about the past few months, yet nothing has been confirmed.

This will be her third duet album in eleven years. The first two - released in 2014 and 2016 - gave her back-to-back #1 albums, solidifying her place as the only artist to have a #1 album in the US for six consecutive decades. If this third duet album hit the top, she will be the only artist to have a #1 album in 7 decades.

Jan Hooks Has Been Dead To Us Ten Years

April 23, 1957 - October 9, 2014

A shame we’ll never know more about her. She was a talented comic actor. Even Pauline Kael said so. But Jan was also a basket case. Kevin Nealon said she seemed a little lost even before her mother’s death in 1986. The death of her father, followed closely by the murder of Phil Hartman, seemed to send her into a spiral and 9/11 sealed the deal.

She spent the last years of her life living in a holler near Bearsville, NY. She had leukemia, went into remission and about 5 years later, was diagnosed with chemo-resistant neck cancer. She opted to forgo treatment and died in her brother’s care.

Jan shunned computers, showbiz, family, friends and her own health. She said if she were married she’d be in prison…kids, death row. Jan dated Nealon for a couple years, but he broke up with her after the first SNL season. She then lived with an artist for a few years. Who knows what happened with that. And her relationship with Phil Hartman has been the subject of rumors for decades, which were exacerbated by Brynn Hartman threatening Jan in letters never sent.

I think we only saw the edge of her talent. She just wanted live with her demons, not Hollywood or sobriety. In the end, that’s exactly what happened

Michelle Obama has security concerns about hitting the campaign trail

WASHINGTON — Barack Obama has begun stumping for Vice President Kamala Harris. Bill Clinton is holding a series of campaign events for her in battleground states.

Yet the Democratic superstar many members of the party would like to see helping Harris has been absent from the campaign trail so far.

With just 20 days until the election, Michelle Obama has worked behind the scenes to boost turnout in key swing states, but she has yet to schedule an official appearance for Harris since the Democratic National Convention. Two people familiar with the matter said she has expressed fresh concerns about security following two assassination attempts against former President Donald Trump.

Both Harris and Trump are receiving an unprecedented level of security after the former president faced two apparent attempts on his life this summer. Measures like more Secret Service agents and bulletproof glass are now commonplace on the campaign trail.

“After the two assassination attempts against former President Trump, the staffs of all the former presidents and first ladies recognized the new reality and so does the Secret Service,” a person familiar with the matter said, calling them “a wake-up call to everyone” to redouble their efforts on security “in light of the new reality.”

Her low profile stands out after her rousing speech in August at the Democratic National Convention, when she implored members of her party not to get complacent about the November election and repeatedly urged voters to instead “do something!”

Michelle Obama is expected to add Harris campaign events to her schedule as Election Day nears, five people familiar with the planning said, though nothing has been finalized at this point. She is expected to play a role in the “closing arguments” for the Democratic campaign, three of those people said.

By the time polls close on Nov. 5, another one of the sources said, “she will have made her voice heard.”

Michelle Obama’s office and the Harris campaign both declined to comment.

“While we are not able to comment on the specifics of our protective operations, safeguarding former President and Mrs. Obama is a top priority for the Secret Service,” USSS spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said in a statement.

Several Democratic strategists have been eager to see an all-hands-on-deck effort from the biggest names in the party.

Another former first lady — Hillary Clinton — is scheduled to start campaigning for Harris in the closing two weeks, after holding several fundraisers for Harris since she took over the top of the ticket. Michelle Obama has not done any fundraisers for Harris during that period.

Michelle Obama has the unique appeal of being the most popular Democratic surrogate, in part because she has never run for elected office. In a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll, she was the only one to receive majority favorability among registered voters.

For the most part, Obama has focused her political efforts in 2024 on “When We All Vote,” the voter registration and engagement initiative she launched in 2018, which will seek to mobilize 5 million voters this cycle, according to the group.

She views her role as a high-profile surrogate quite differently than her husband does, according to two people familiar with the dynamic.

“People sometimes forget: she’s not a politician,” one of the people said.

Obama has been open about her disdain for partisan politics, despite some in both parties speculating about her running for office in the future. Earlier this year, her office flatly stated that she does not intend to seek the presidency and reiterated her reluctance to re-enter the political fray in such a manner.

There is a sense among some party insiders that deploying Michelle Obama might be most effective at the very end, according to the person familiar with the dynamic.

“You have to pick the moment when you can move the needle the most,” this person said, “and that hasn’t happened yet.”

Much of the surrogacy talk appears to be camouflage for criticizing gay male parenting.

I was reading about the ban on surrogacy in Italy on X. I realized that most of the responses were kind of anti-gay. Even though straight people participate in surrogacy as well. While reading X, it felt like gays were seen as infant monsters that children must be guarded from. People were saying that gay people were renting wombs to create fake families. One woman retorts that homosexuals want the dividends of heterosexual without putting in the work.

Andrew Garfield says Mel Gibson ‘Deserves to Make Films’ because ‘None of Us Are Infallible’

Andrew Garfield recently told People magazine that Mel Gibson “deserves to make films” and has “done a lot of beautiful healing with himself.” Gibson’s career in Hollywood nosedived after his infamous DUI arrest in 2006, which included the “Braveheart” Oscar winner making comments disparaging Jewish people. Gibson directed Garfield in the 2016 war drama “Hacksaw Ridge,” for which Garfield was Oscar nominated for best actor. The filmmaker landed a best director nom.

“I learned a lot, actually. I learned that people can heal. I learned that people can change, that people can get help. I learned that everyone deserves respect,” Garfield answered when People asked what he learned from making “Hacksaw Ridge” with Gibson. “And that people deserve second chances, third chances, fourth chances. That none of us are infallible.”

“He’s done a lot of beautiful healing with himself,” Garfield added. “And thank God. Because he’s an amazing filmmaker, and I think he deserves to make films. He deserves to tell stories, because he has a very, very big, compassionate heart. He’s the kind of director that would come from behind the monitors, just with his eyes wet. He knew when it was right and he knew when it wasn’t right. And I just really trusted him. And he’s a visceral storyteller so he can feel… He’s like he can’t help but feel everything. He’s a real empathetic guy.”

Gibson only recently returned to the director’s chair for the first time since “Hacksaw Ridge” with the upcoming thriller “Flight Risk,” starring Mark Wahlberg. The movie opens in theaters in 2025. While he continued to act in the years after his 2006 arrest, it was rarely in major Hollywood tentpoles or studio films.

Following his arrest in 2006, Gibson issued a lengthy apology for his comments about Jewish people and said “there is no excuse, nor should there be any tolerance, for anyone who thinks or expresses any kind of antisemitic remark.”

“I want to apologize specifically to everyone in the Jewish community for the vitriolic and harmful words that I said to a law enforcement officer the night I was arrested on a DUI charge,” he added at the time. I am a public person, and when I say something, either articulated and thought out, or blurted out in a moment of insanity, my words carry weight in the public arena. As a result, I must assume personal responsibility for my words and apologize directly to those who have been hurt and offended by those words.”

Zayn Malik announces first-ever solo tour nearly a decade after One Direction split

Zayn is preparing to embark on his first-ever solo tour nearly a decade after he officially split from One Direction in 2015.

The former boy band star, 31, announced on Wednesday (September 18) that he would be bringing his 11-date Stairway to the Sky tour to the US and UK beginning this fall.

“Appreciate your patience, love, and support,” the “Pillowtalk” singer wrote on Instagram. “Can’t wait to enjoy great music together. This time I really mean soon see you in 35 days.”

Zayn teased the tour during a recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon – his first TV appearance in eight years since he performed his 2016 song “Alienated” on the NBC late-night show.

The tour will be in support of his long-awaited fourth studio album, Room Under the Stairs, which he released earlier this year.

He previously described the record as an opportunity “for the listener to get more insight on me personally as a human being – my ambitions, my fears.”

Zayn will kick off his tour in the US on October 23 in San Francisco, California, before hitting Las Vegas, Nevada (October 25); Los Angeles, California (October 27); Washington DC (October 30); and New York City, New York (November 2).

Zayn first rose to fame as a solo contestant on The X Factor in 2010. Following his elimination, he was brought back and partnered with Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson to form One Direction.

The five-piece act went on to become a global sensation, releasing a string of Top 10 albums and embarking on several world tours.

In 2015, amid their world tour in Asia, Zayn announced his shock departure.

“My life with One Direction has been more than I could ever have imagined. But, after five years, I feel like it is now the right time for me to leave the band,” he said in a statement at the time, explaining: “I am leaving because I want to be a normal 22-year-old who is able to relax and have some private time out of the spotlight.”

The rest of the band went on permanent hiatus soon after in 2016.

Cheryl Cole calls out ‘Abhorrent’ reports and ‘Media Exploitation’ of Liam Payne's death

Cheryl Cole, who shared a son with Liam Payne, has issued a statement on the death of the superstar.

In a paragraph posted to Instagram, Cole pleaded with the media to stop with “abhorrent reports” and “media exploitation” of his death for the sake of their son Bear.

“As I try to navigate this earth shattering event, and work through my own grief at this indescribably painful time, I’d like to kindly remind everyone that we have lost a human being,” she said. “Liam was not only a pop star and celebrity, he was a son, a brother, an uncle, a dear friend and a father to our 7 year old son. A son that now has to face the reality of never seeing his father again.”

She continued, “What is troubling my spirit the most is that one day Bear will have access to the abhorrent reports and media exploitation we have seen in the past two days. It is breaking my heart further that I cannot protect him from that in his future. I am begging you to consider what use some of these reports are serving, other than to cause further harm to everyone left behind picking up the pieces. Before you leave comments or make videos, ask yourself if you would like your own child or family to read them.”

Cole closed her statement, asking the public to please give “Liam the little dignity he has left in the wake of his death to rest in some peace at last.” Payne died on Oct. 16 after a fall from a hotel rooftop in Buenos Aires. He was 31.

News emerged that Payne had died from “multiple trauma” and “internal and external hemorrhage” after falling three floors from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina according to the city’s National Criminal and Correctional Prosecutor’s Office. It was unclear whether the fall was an accident, with authorities continuing to investigate the circumstances.

The couple first met when Payne auditioned for the U.K. edition of “The X Factor” as a 14 year old in 2008. Cole, who was 10 years his senior, was on the judging panel alongside Simon Cowell, Dannii Minogue and Louis Walsh.

The two began dating in 2016 and went on to have a son together, named Bear, in 2017. They ended their relationship the following year and Payne went on to have a long-term relationship with model Maya Henry. Payne was originally in Buenos Aires with his current girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, but she left the vacation a few days earlier.

In an interview with The Sunday Times a few months after their split, Cole revealed Payne had wanted to be a father from the age of 16. “He wanted to settle down and have a family and not do the solo thing. Then [I] encouraged him to do that. And then it didn’t work out.”

Strictly Come Dancing 2024 (Series 22)

Strictly has just celebrated its 20th anniversary and the after much speculation it has been widely reported that Giovanni has SENSATIONALLY QUIT.

There's speculation about legal action from Amanda Abbington who felt bullied after pulling out and creating a DANCE DISASTER and Ranvir Singh and Laura Whitmore also had unhappy experiences on the show with Giovanni. There were also stories about his behaviour towards Faye Tozer and Michelle Visage.

There's a fine line between demanding excellence and just being an abusive twat and Giovanni has apparently crossed the line.

I wonder if Rose Ayling Ellis was different because she was always paired with a chaperone to translate?

Anyway if Giovanni does quit will the gurning ginger guy replace him or will they get a new pro in?

Celebrity wise it's Olympic year so expect a few Olympians. Tom Daley is a long standing target (just imagine Dustin's waxy face as he rubs crotches with Gorka) and the producers would be desperate for Laura Kenny although she's happy just being at home with her kids now. Maybe non lesbian lioness Steph Houghton who is retiring this summer?

Sara and Keren from Bananarama must have turned it down countless times as they'd not be up for all that work but Siobhan might be up for it. And Susan Ann Sulley from The Human League would do a great paso.

Guy Fieri Fans Stunned by His Major Transformation Amid Weight Loss Journey

He might be known for traveling the country in search of deep-fried delicacies, but Guy Fieri is all about fitness these days—and fans are impressed.

In a video shared to Instagram on Thursday, Oct. 17, Fieri, 56, announced the arrival of signed bottles of his Flavortown BBQ sauce to Walmart, showing off his trim frame in the process.

"Attention Walmart shoppers, if you're in aisle 17 of Walmart right now, there's a bunch of signed bottles of Flavortown sauce," Fieri said in the clip, casually dressed in shorts, a T-shirt, and flip-flops. "Honey barbecue? The bomb."

Followers couldn't get over the celeb chef's toned physique.

"Damn guy. Hitting the gym?" asked one fan.

"Looking slim and trim !!! 🔥🔥🔥 Spending time in the gym! Awesome !!!🖤🖤🖤," raved a second person.

"Bro! Looking great! 🤜🏼🥪," another Instagram user declared.

"Somebody’s been getting after it looking great!" agreed a fourth commenter.

Fieri has reportedly lost 30 pounds since 2020. He opened up about the process in a May 2024 interview with Men's Health, revealing that he hikes with a weighted backpack every morning and incorporated HIIT workouts with a trainer into his routine twice per week. He also extolled the benefits of spending time in the sauna followed by a cold plunge.

"The thing about cold plunges is that you gotta get through the first 30 seconds," he said. "When I started, I hated waiting on the timer to go off. But now I breathe and get into the right mind space. The energy it gives you…it gets me fired up. I do it every day."

AT&T Air Internet

No, this is not a advert for this service. Just thought I'd pass on a great experience for anyone else interested in a better internet service if what you have is less than stellar.

Just switched over to this new service that provides a high speed internet connection from their cell towers. I am very impressed. I'm at a summer house way out in the middle of nowhere and have been rather unhappy with the providers. Luckily I'm less than a mile from a huge AT&T cell tower and I'm getting 200 mbps and over using their wireless router (that is free by the way. One local cable company wanted to charge me $300.00 to come out and install their equipment. It's $60/mo and is working like a charm, with the exception of the 9 days I had no electricity during hurricane Helene. The main thing I like is that you're less likely to have outages you have with providers that use cables on poles. You just put the receiver in a window pointed toward the nearest tower and let it sync up and you're off and running.

Jennifer Lopez ‘Seeing Red’ Over Ben Affleck’s Post-Divorce Makeover and Glow Up

Ben Affleck’s hair and beard makeover is just the tip of the iceberg as he’s decided to overhaul his life from top to bottom now that he’s single again – and it’s got his ex Jennifer Lopez fuming that he never cared enough to take care of himself like this while they were married, a source exclusively tells In Touch.

Famous all over the internet for his frumpy look – usually sporting a sweater and five o’clock shadow with a cigarette to boot – the source says that now “Ben is suddenly going out of his way to pamper himself and look his absolute best.

“He’s now dying his hair, getting manicures and pedicures, getting waxed from head to toe. He’s even getting hair plugs and seeing the dermatologist for skin treatments to turn back the clock.”

“Even his diet is cleaner. He’s cut out a ton of the junk.”

The Gone Girl star, 52, debuted his new look while out and about with his kid, Fin, in Santa Monica on Thursday, October 3. He sported a smart-looking pressed button down shirt in blue plus black dress pants and shoes, along with a well-matched silver watch.

Even his hair and beard had been trimmed and the subtle gray streaks seemed to have disappeared.

“As you can imagine J. Lo is seeing red,” the insider continues, “because these are all the things she wanted him to do when they were together and he totally refused.”

It’s clear now that Ben is ready to pick himself back up and move on post divorce, according to the source.

“It feels like a total slap in the face because it’s sending this message that she wasn’t worth making these changes for, but now that he’s single and looking to impress new women he’s willing to step it up and stop being such a slob.”

“Everyone is telling her he’s just a middle-aged fool who didn’t deserve her, but she’s seething and feeling pretty let down too.”

“Alien: Romulus” is fucking AWESOME

Wow. It was nice to see a good Alien film again! It’s the best one since Aliens! Much better than Alien 3, Resurrection, Prometheus and Covenant. Covenant makes me sad because I really wanted that one to be good but it was meh.

Romulus lives up to the acclaim and is actually a good time and feels a bit like a throwback to the OG film. The tone of this one is horror like the original, unlike its sequels.

I will say that the second half moves slower than the first half despite that being the half with all the deaths etc. it could have easily shaved off 20 minutes or so, but still, a terrific film. Go see it!!! All the young actors do a terrific job but Cailee Spaeny is magnificent as the lead character, Rain Carradine. Cailee and David Jonnson give breakout star performances, with Jonnson being the heart of the film.

The story is simple, like the original, but magnificent the same. This film has some of the best cinematography I’ve seen so far this year. It’s a must see in theaters.

Killer LAPD cop Stephanie Lazarus might get out of prison

A former Los Angeles police detective for years hid the truth about how she killed her ex's new wife. Now, she could go free.

The family of Sherri Rasmussen is outraged that a California board recommended that her killer is eligible for parole.

A former Los Angeles police detective was convicted of murdering her ex-boyfriend’s wife in 2012, more than two decades after Sherri Rasmussen was killed in her Southern California condo.

But last month parole officials concluded that Stephanie Lazarus, the former detective who was sentenced to 27 years to life in prison, is eligible for parole. And Rasmussen’s relatives are outraged that the woman who hid the truth about the murder and continued to work as a law enforcement officer for more than 20 years could go free.

Lazarus, now 63 and incarcerated southeast of Los Angeles, pleaded not guilty during her trial and had not publicly admitted to her role in the 1986 killing until a parole suitability hearing on Nov. 16, according to two relatives who attended the hearing.

Connie Rasmussen, Sherri Rasmussen’s older sister, said in her family's first interview about the decision that while Lazarus acknowledged killing Sherri during the hearing, she did not apologize to relatives and appeared to downplay the seriousness of the crime, saying that she hadn’t intended to kill Sherri when she went to the Van Nuys condo on Feb. 24, 1986.

Will & Harper Is A Delight

Watched Will & Harper, a road trip documentary on Netflix about Will Ferrell and his former SNL writing partner who announced his transition via email a few years ago. It is so affirming, insightful, and full of affirming human kindness and the power of friendship. Lots of SNL icons being supportive, with a rollercoaster ride of funny and scary moments, shockingly positive affirmations from unlikely Red Staters , and the usual cruelty you'd expect from MAGAts as the pair road trip from New York to LA.

Will Ferrell really shines in this as a great friend and kind human, and Harper Lewis really emerges as a great ambassador for live and let live late in life transitioners.

Highly recommended.

Scared for fate the of western democracy

I was just reading about Russia's interference in Canadian politics - using disinformation to spread right wing lies. They were using both Jordan Peterson and Tucker Carlson as proxies. Putin has used disinformation for years to destabilize democracy in the west. Both Brexit and the first (hopefully last) Trump administration would not have happened without Putin's disinformation campaign.

Now the same gruesome campaign is being waged against Harris/Walz. It is INSANE to me that so many on the right and far left support Putin. We are in great danger of losing our democracy and some people don't even seem to care. In fact almost 50% of the public and large swaths of young people won't even vote.

Chris Pratt: Actors with a bad attitude on set "ruin everything for everyone"

Chris Pratt doesn't have time for "bad attitudes" when making movies.

The Electric State star, 45, revealed on Thursday, Oct. 17 during a New York Comic Con panel for his upcoming Netflix sci-fi film that when an actor has a "bad attitude" while filming, it "ruins everything for everyone."

While commending his "incredible" costar, Millie Bobby Brown, for her attitude on and off set during the panel, which also featured Electric State directors Joe and Anthony Russo, Pratt shared an aside about what happens when colleagues aren't as incredible to work with.

"Look, these guys can attest to this, because they're the same way, like, there's no room for s---ty attitudes there," Pratt said. "You can't have a bad… you can't have a bad attitude in movie making, it ruins everything for everyone, and then you don't last long."

"It sucks when people have a crappy attitude. So when you show up on set, there's no reason why you should... Like, 'Oh, are you having a hard time living your dream? Is that tough for you today?' Like, come on and pull your head out," he continued. "Have fun."

As Pratt revealed, he and Brown, 20, did indeed have fun on the set of their latest film. Set to premiere on Netflix on March 14, 2025, the Electric State also stars Ke Huy Quan, Jason Alexander, Giancarlo Esposito and Stanley Tucci, as well as the voices of Woody Harrelson, Anthony Mackie, Brian Cox, Jenny Slate, Hank Azaria, Colman Domingo and Alan Tudyk.

"And she's just incredible," Pratt said of Brown. "She was surrounded by all these animals. She's like, they would yell cut and she'd go to her home and she's finding a home for, like some pygmy goat to be adopted and organizing a U-Haul full of pit bull puppies to be taken to Indiana. Like she has such a huge heart, such a love for animals."

"And so we had a great time. We became fast friends, and you can't get rid of me," he joked. "Sorry."

Former NFL Star Carl Nassib: ‘There are kids … who’d rather be dead than gay’

In 2021, Nassib – then playing for the Las Vegas Raiders – became the first active NFL player in league history to publicly identify as gay.

Nassib said he agonized over the decision for 15 years, adding that he was a private person and wasn’t seeking any publicity.

Months later, he became the first active NFL player identifying as gay to feature in a regular season game, starring in the Raiders’ thrilling 33-27 win over the Baltimore Ravens.

When he announced, Nassib pointed towards The Trevor Project – a suicide prevention and crisis intervention organization for LGBTQ+ youth – and how it had helped him.

On Friday, Nassib will continue that partnership, as he announces the second round pick of the Cleveland Browns – the team with whom Nassib began his NFL career in 2016 – at the 2024 NFL Draft.

As the team’s guest picker, Nassib will be joined on stage in Detroit by The Trevor Project’s founder and interim CEO, Peggy Rajski.

He’s dating one of the world’s most famous popstars, he’s walked the runways for globally-revered designers, and he’s about to share the screen with Cate Blanchett – is Louis Partridge the new leading light of British cinema?

With his upcoming role in dynastic biopic House of Guinness, which chronicles the tragedies and triumphs of the family of Anglo-Irish billionaires, British actor Louis Partridge will need to get to grips with some of modern history’s most illustrious power couples. Think Lady Brigid Guinness marrying Prince Frederick of Prussia (they fell in love while she nursed wounds he sustained in a not-so regal tractor accident), or the relationship between the most swinging of sixties socialites, Tara Browne and the model Suki Poitier.

And while 21-year-old Louis has already proven himself to be quite the actor – holding his own alongside screen icons like Hugh Grant and Julie Walters in Paddington 2, or Bryan Cranston in Argyle – he may be able to draw from lived experience when he takes on the loves and losses of the Guinness family.

Film production in LA may be in a terminal decline

The remainder of the Fox lot will probably be sold to developers soon, the Paramount lot not far behind. I expect Comcast to buy Warner Bros and consolidate production with Universal (U can turn more of their lot into rides and attractions.)

Los Angeles will only support a small production community who are kept afloat by gigantic tax breaks. All jobs will be union jobs and impossible for outsiders to break into. People who want to get started in production- including actors- will go to Atlanta or Albuquerque instead of Hollywood.

Kathy Bates RETIRING after Matlock

After five decades in Hollywood, Oscar- and Emmy-winning actress Kathy Bates says she is ready to yell cut. The esteemed performer will put away her scripts following CBS‘ reboot of Matlock, premiering Sept. 22 and later dropping on Paramount+.

“This is my last dance,” she told the New York Times simply in a new interview published Sunday.

In fact, Bates revealed that she was ready to retire earlier, after a film shoot had soured for her (she did not specify the production) late last year. However, in January 2024, her agents sent her the script for the procedural, the premise of which — a reimagining on the classic legal TV drama, featuring a septuagenarian righting wrongs — intrigued the actress as a person who has faced injustice earlier in her career, she said.

“Everything I’ve prayed for, worked for, clawed my way up for, I am suddenly able to be asked to use all of it,” she said of the series. “And it’s exhausting.”

Bates is most known for her Academy Award-winning role as Annie Wilkes in 1990’s Misery, about a violent hermit who kidnaps a famous novelist. Later on, she had arcs on television shows like Six Feet Under, The Office, Two and a Half Men and American Horror Story: Coven. She won Emmys for Outstanding Guest Actress and Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Miniseries or Movie for the latter two projects. She also starred in Netflix’s two-season-long 2017 sitcom Disjointed, which follows a medical dispensary’s owner. Her latest turns were in Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret and Netflix’s A Family Affair, opposite Nicole Kidman.

With an 18-episode order, Matlock is anything but restful. The remake of the late ’80s original (which starred Andy Griffith) follows a brilliant attorney’s return to a prestigious law firm after having achieved success in her younger years. It will also feature Jason Ritter, Skye P. Marshall and Beau Bridges. It hails from showrunner Jennie Snyder Urman.

“It becomes my life,” Bates said of the all-consuming nature of acting. “Sometimes I get jealous of having this talent. Because I can’t hold it back, and I just want my life.”

‘Gladiator II’ New Trailer: Russell Crowe Returns in an Unexpected Way

Russell Crowe may not be in “Gladiator II,” but his late character Maximus has been revealed at last to be the father of Paul Mescal’s lead Lucius.

The latest trailer for Ridley Scott’s highly-anticipated epic sequel has confirmed that Crowe’s Maximus fathered Lucius with Lucilla (Connie Nielsen), as long suspected. Lucius is the nephew of Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix) who was killed by Russell Crowe’s Maximus; the character is also the grandson of Marcus Aurelius (Richard Harris). Maximus died in “Gladiator.”

Spencer Treat Clark played Lucius in the 2000 feature.

“Gladiator II” is set 20 years after the events of the first film. Joseph Quinn, Pedro Pascal, and Denzel Washington co-star.

The official synopsis reads: “From legendary director Ridley Scott, ‘Gladiator II’ continues the epic saga of power, intrigue, and vengeance set in Ancient Rome. Years after witnessing the death of the revered hero Maximus at the hands of his uncle, Lucius (Mescal) is forced to enter the Colosseum after his home is conquered by the tyrannical Emperors who now lead Rome with an iron fist. With rage in his heart and the future of the Empire at stake, Lucius must look to his past to find strength and honor to return the glory of Rome to its people.”

Scott’s “Napoleon” screenwriter David Scarpa penned the script. Scott’s original “Gladiator” collaborators, costume designer Janty Yates and production designer Arthur Max, are returning to the franchise. Scott Free President Michael Pruss, plus Doug Wick and Lucy Fisher via Red Wagon Entertainment, are producing.

The film is executive produced by Walter Parkes, Laurie MacDonald, Raymond Kirk, and Aidan Elliott.

“Gladiator II” star Mescal told Entertainment Weekly that he was shocked to learn that Lucius was the son of Maximus.

“Oh, absolutely. I was like, ‘Holy shit,'” Mescal said. “It’s an affronting thing to see it written on the page, and [to have] that responsibility fall on your shoulders is interesting. The screenplay does a lot of that work for you in terms of the rubbing the dirt between the hands, the kind of DNA, and the genetics that Lucius inherits.

So I kind of tried to park that to one side because ultimately, where Lucius is coming from at the start of the film, he has a very different journey than Maximus does. And I was hoping that whatever DNA and even just the physical gestures was going to be one part of, and a kind of small part of, the performance. But then what I tried to do is figure out exactly who Lucius was and where those differences lay between Lucius and Maximus.””

Mescal previously told Esquire that he was “stressed” about the sequel since it’s the “biggest” film he’s ever starred in. He added that director Scott “pays homage” to the first “Gladiator,” clearly with the Crowe reference.

“I can’t tell you how stressed I am talking about that film in particular, because it’s definitely the biggest one I’ve done,” Mescal said. “I feel really excited, but, like, it’s difficult to get away from the legacy of the film a bit. I think it’s really well written and it pays homage to the first one, but it’s very much something that I think I can step into and make comfortably my own.”

“Gladiator 2” premieres November 22 in theaters.

The Villa Vie Odyssey's cursed non-stop round the world voyage.

This got a couple of mentions in the cruising (on ships) thread but I thought it deserves its own.

Villa Vie residences have bought a cruise ship they named the Odyssey and are selling rich people the chance to sail round the world for life (so they claim).

Passengers can buy a cabin on board or rent one for individual time segments (the ship's destinations on its three-year global circuit are posted in advance).

'Ownership' starts at US $119,999 for the inside villa or rent for $1750/month. The Balcony suite will set you back $349,999.

Sound good? Well, ownership is only guaranteed for 15 years or the entire operational life of the ship. The Odyssey used to be the Braemar from Fred Olson and is now 31 years old. Apparently the average life of a cruise ship is 30 years. Hmmm. Thankfully there is an option to sell your cabin back to the company or upgrade to another ship (there are apparently plans to buy in the future).

The adventure of a lifetime has so far not being going smoothly. The Odyssey was meant to set sail from the UK in May, but many technical and maintenance issues required it to spend four months being refitted in Belfast before passing sea trials. Many of the passengers had sold their house and were forced to kick their heels in Northern Ireland or travel somewhere else on their own for a few months. The company apparently spent $500,000 on putting guests up in hotels over the summer, until they were forced to send a letter in September asking passengers to pay for themselves. Even when they left port in October, it was only to anchor offshore until more 'paperwork' was done (to avoid a legal deadline for refunds?).

On reddit, a former officer on the ship when it was the Braemar stated 'When Fred Olsen has finished with a ship there's nothing more to get out of it. Unfortunately this is a flop where people are fooled to believe that this will be paradise. I know that vessel like my own pocket after having worked there. I took it through the fifteen years class and there were already challenges with this vessel'. It's been claimed that the company bought the ship without paperwork detailing maintenance history.

Mysterious white blobs washing up on Canadian beaches stump experts

Beaches across Canada's far northeast Newfoundland and Labrador province have increasingly been littered with mysterious white blobs. Their appearance has so far befuddled scientists, and led Canadian officials in the region to launch an investigation.

Beachgoers first noticed the unusual blobs on the shores of Newfoundland and Labrador in September. People quickly started sharing photos of the gelatinous clumps on a Facebook group with more than 40,000 members that is dedicated to exploring the region's coastal areas.

"Anyone know what these blobs are. They are like touton dough and all over the beach," wrote Philip Grace on the Beachcombers Facebook group, comparing the finds to a regional dish. "These were in sizes ranging from dinner plate size right down to a toonie [Canadian 2-dollar coin]."

Some people speculated online that the mystery blobs could be the result of ships dumping substances into the ocean. Others suggested they could be whale sperm, whale vomit or even ambergris, a byproduct of sperm whales that's valued for its use in perfumes and other products.

But the experts weren't to be dragged into the speculation.

Environment and Climate Change Canada, the government agency responsible for investigating the mystery, simply referred to the blobs as "a mystery substance" when asked by CBS News on Tuesday.

Newfoundland resident David McGrath told The Guardian newspaper that he'd seen hundreds of the items scattered across his local beaches.

"They looked just like a pancake before you flip it over, when it has those dimpled little bubbles. I poked a couple with a stick and they were spongy and firm inside," he told the newspaper. "I've lived here for 67 years, and I've never seen anything like this. Never."

"They sent the Coast Guard over and I asked them how bad it was. They told me they had 28 miles of coastline littered with this stuff and had no idea what it was," McGrath said. "Is it toxic? It is safe for people to touch?"

Samantha Bayard, a spokesperson for Environment and Climate Change Canada, told CBS News the agency was first informed about the "mystery substance" on beaches on Sept. 7. Environmental emergency officers visited sites at least three times to assess the situation and collect samples.

"To date, ECCC has conducted several aerial, underwater and manual surveys of the beaches and shorelines in the area to determine the extent of the substance, what it is and its potential source," she said. "At this time, neither the substance nor its source has been identified."

Bayard said a preliminary laboratory analysis by the agency suggested the material "could be plant-based," but stressed that additional analysis was required "before a final determination can be made on the substance and its potential impacts."

Stan Tobin, a local environmentalist, told CBS News' partner network BBC News that he'd found "hundreds and hundreds of blobs — big blobs, little blobs."

"Somebody or somebodies know where this came from and how it got there, and knows damn well it's not supposed to be here," Tobin told the BBC.

An update on my rescue dog Oscar

You might remember my rescue dog, Oscar. When I picked him up from a Whole Foods parking lot, he was covered in matted fur and fleas. Six weeks on, he is doing pretty well. I took him in for a urinalysis and bloodwork because he slurps a great amount of water and pees on the carpet. Incredibly, it all came back fine. He's also lost two pounds on his balanced, gourmet diet. He gets a daily helping of rice, broth, and pumpkin along with a dry dog food. The only thing is that compared to my original rescue dog Tiger, Oscar is very stupid.

VP Harris to hecklers: "You belong at the smaller (Trump) rally down the street"

Vice President Harris taunted hecklers demonstrating Thursday at one of her campaign rallies in Wisconsin, quipping that they should instead be attending a “smaller” rally “down the street.”

Harris was interrupted during remarks in La Crosse, Wis., as she spoke about the fight over abortion rights in the upcoming election.

The hecklers began shouting as she blasted former President Trump for appointing three Supreme Court justices who helped vote to overturn Roe v. Wade.

“Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally,” Harris said, drawing roars from the crowd of supporters. “No, I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street.”

Harris’s campaign later shared a clip of the moment on social media, adding multiple fire emoji.

The vice president was holding three separate campaign events in Wisconsin on Thursday as part of her weeklong blitz of “blue wall” states of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

In addition to La Crosse, the Democratic nominee also visited Milwaukee and had an event scheduled for later Thursday in Green Bay.

Hurricane Milton Survivor Lt. Dan’s Internet Fame Torpedoed After Dropping N-Word

Internet admiration left just as easily as it came for Hurricane Milton survivor-turned viral sensation Lt. Dan after he dropped the N-word during a livestream.

Real name Joseph Malinowski, the 54-year-old Tampa, Florida, resident became an overnight celebrity after he had to have his 20-foot boat pulled back to shore by a kind citizen.

When Malinowski, a disabled veteran with one leg, said that he planned to ride out the storm in his boat with his worldly possessions a star was born, and social media users worried about his health and safety as the superstorm made landfall Oct. 10.

Fourteen deaths were recorded in the aftermath of the storm. However, Malinowski survived seemingly unscathed after taking shelter nearby. But in a video he posted Friday giving fans an update on his condition, things went awry.

Talking to the Kick social media platform, Malinowski claimed that he may have been tricked out of receiving money donated to him because of another TikTok user.

“If you want to get back into my good graces, you have to take time,” he said, adding, “’Cause once I cut you off, you’re done [N-word]. I’m sorry.”

Reactions to the clip ranged from disgust to disbelief.

“Lt dan only just got signed to kick and already dropped the N-word on stream🤣,” wrote one social media commentator.

Another added, “This generation of mine and Gen Z elevates the worst people, constantly. It’s deplorable. This loser Lt Dan just said the N word streaming. He’s a snake w/ other snakes in the grass. Hope he is ignored into oblivion.”
