These five desserts are probably delicious anytime, but here’s how you can adapt them for your Halloween party: Halloween Hostess Cupcakes Submitted by kind lifer Shana This vegan take on the classic Hostess cupcake can be customized for Halloween. Sprinkle the frosting with orange and chocolate sprinkles, or instead of squiggles, draw the word “boo.” Get creative and have your kids help you decorate the cupcakes. YUM! Spooky S’mores Photo Source: OhSheGlows.com Reserve some of the icing from your Halloween Hostess Cupcakes to decorate these homemade s’mores. You can draw ghosts and use grain-sweetened chocolate chips by Sunspire to make your ghosts’ eyes. You can also use the icing to draw a border or use it as a base for orange and chocolate sprinkles. Have a baking and s’mores decorating party, and create an assortment of patterns with your friends or your kids! Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups For anyone who used to love getting Reese’s peanut butter cups in their trick-or-treating bags, my chocolate peanut butter cups from The Kind Diet are a must-have Halloween treat. You can serve them on a party platter or put them in little baggies as a take-home party favor. Try wrapping your party favors in this biodegradable cellophane and tie with twine. Yummy Gingerbread Cookies Submitted by kind lifer Madeline. Gingerbread is traditionally a Christmas treat, but these cookies are packed with the flavors of fall, and they’re easy to cut into Halloween shapes. Just use pumpkin or ghost-shaped cookie cutters instead of Christmas trees and holiday bells, then decorate them with white icing, vegan chocolate chips, and orange and chocolate sprinkles. You can also make sandwich cookies out of these for an extra decadent treat. Hot Apple Cider I made this for Thanksgiving, but it’s great for Halloween too. My hot apple cider is delicious to sip on during the cool weather. Serve it in a punch bowl on a table decorated with seasonal veggies like corn and squash. Apples are part of the “dirty dozen” list of fruits and veggies that absorb pesticides easily, so be sure to make this recipe with organic apple juice. If you buy organic apples and juice them yourself, even better!

I was so excited for 2025. I never make insipid resolutions, mostly because I usually derail by mid-February. This time, though, I was resolute: meditate, eat healthy, exercise more, read more, do more, and shift into fifth gear in my career. As a stand-up comedian, I’ve always used humor to navigate life’s obstacle course—but nothing prepared me for the unforeseeable detour up ahead. The new year started with a boom-erang. I spent New Year’s Eve in the hospital with my husband, who had just undergone a knee replacement. Not exactly the kind of New Year I’m accustomed to. Normally, I work every New Year’s Eve, which gives me the illusion that I’m manifesting abundance for the upcoming year. So, this clinical rerouting was upsetting. But I wanted to be there for my husband, who was feeling very dismayed. Plus, he looked sexy in his gender-neutral hospital gown. Irene Bremis and her husband | Courtesy Unwilling to let anything upend my goals, on January 1st I woke up and started listening to motivational meditations on Reloop. I was on fire for over two weeks—record scratch—until January 17th, when life pissed on my parade and I couldn’t see through the smoke. For six months, I’d been experiencing frequent bowel movements with occasional blood. I convinced myself it was IBS and hemorrhoids—because the show must go on, sweeties! But eventually, the blood became consistent. I tried Cologuard twice. The first box was expired, the second was invalid for “insufficient specimen.” (No comment.) So, I gave up on Cologuard and walked over to CVS, where I picked up a Second Generation FIT kit for $8. I went home, locked myself in the bathroom, and after the appointed time, looked down to see it had tested positive for cancer. I assumed it was just detecting blood, but it lit a fire under my ass to make an emergency appointment for a colonoscopy. I was over 50 and had never had one before. I thought it was futile—colon cancer doesn’t run in my family—but old age does. Plus, I’ve always had a visceral fear of anesthesia, especially since menopause brain had me forgetting the make and model of my own car. I even got tested for early-onset dementia, just to be sure. On January 17th, I walked into the doctor’s office. The nurse assured me that 98 percent of the time, a FIT test leads to nothing. Eager to drink the Kool-Aid, I followed them to the gurney. I was mid-sentence, asking the nurse to use a very light dose of… and I was out. The next thing I remember was waking up alone, farting like I’d never farted before. It took a while for anyone to come into the room, but eventually, my husband did. Within one minute, the doctor pulled him out. They were gone for what felt like fifteen dog minutes. When they returned, my husband looked like someone had broken into our safe, and the doctor had the discomforting look of a funeral director. He gently said, “We found something. It’s a mass.” Five centimeters, he said, forming a circle with his fingers. He explained they’d send it to the lab for biopsy and they’d call me with the pathology report. Three days later, the phone rang. My husband answered. His constipated poker face told me everything—I had cancer. Irene Bremis and podcast co-host, Rachel Dratch | Courtesy Hearing “you have cancer” is surreal. The words echo loudly, but somehow you go deaf. My husband and I stayed in “sick bay,” sob-spooning. I speculated how much time I had left, pondered all the unchecked things on my to-do list, and kept thinking: I don’t have time for cancer. I’M BUSY. After a week of inertia, I picked myself up and googled colon cancer survivors without chemo. The book Chris Beats Cancer popped up. Chris had colon cancer, underwent surgery, but skipped chemotherapy against his doctor’s urgency. The more I read, the more I knew chemo wasn’t for me. Chemo terrified me more than cancer did. The gastroenterologist referred me to a surgeon. He explained the tumor was large and in a precarious spot. He recommended three months of chemo, followed by surgery. That was the beginning of a series of dehumanizing procedures that left me sympathizing with anyone who’s ever claimed alien abduction. Then, as if the universe wanted to mock me, my sister texted to say our mother was being rushed to the hospital with a bowel obstruction. My surgeon overheard and blurted, “That’s colon cancer.” Sure enough, it was. Same size tumor, same surgery. She underwent genetic testing that showed it wasn’t hereditary—just a cruel coincidence. I thought who’s holding the voodoo doll? Was this stigmatic or a cruel coincidence? Meanwhile, my surgeon said a stoma was unavoidable if he operated. A scat fanny pack? I wasn’t prepared. He pushed chemo. My mind was already fixed. I plunged into research. Books, medical journals, survivor blogs, YouTube testimonies. Knowledge wasn’t just power—it was life. I changed my diet: raw cruciferous veggies, sprouts, juicing, Ezekiel bread, legumes, brown rice, fasting. EVERYTHING organic. I gave up red wine when I needed it most. I started a regimen of dandelion root, turkey tail, reishi, amla, curcumin, omega-3s. I tracked biomarkers—CEA, hsCRP, ctDNA. I found community: a 96-year-old nutritionist, an astrophysicist with a breakthrough supplement, friends who became “cancer sponsors,” and my church, where I hijacked the prayer group. I meditated, cut stress, and kept podcasting with Rachel Dratch. I kept my diagnosis private, not out of shame but out of sheer self-preservation. Visiting the oncologist | Courtesy Irene Bremis Within a week of research, I was 95 percent sure I’d forgo chemo. My first oncologist only cemented that choice. She pushed FOLFOX, a regimen from the ’90s. She told me I’d need a port—a small device under the skin for infusions. I prefer my Port in a glass, vintage 2011. Risks included infection, sepsis, embolisms. She promptly scheduled installation. When I asked if I could wait, she said it was inadvisable. Then she casually mentioned she’d be on vacation for two weeks but I could “always try MyChart.” Paging Dr. Casper. On the long ride home, I felt I’d signed up for something my body opposed. At home, I re-read the pamphlet. A dealbreaker: I wouldn’t even be able to share a bathroom with my husband because chemo urine is a biohazard. I imagined him in a Silkwood shower. I called to cancel the port, and I ghosted her. Later I learned she wasn’t even a full oncologist—just an underling. My surgeon admitted she was “inexperienced” and recommended someone else. But hospital politics meant no one wanted to “poach” patients. What about me!? Mean Girls with cancer, so I went out of network. Chemo was frightful to me. I believed my body could cure cancer, and chemo would harm me. I’d already been misdiagnosed with Lyme for eight years. My faith in medicine was malignant. Lifestyle, eating, meditation—my body’s real medicine. I researched until I found my dream oncologist, Dr. Ocean. Brazen, formidable, willing to think outside the box. Booked for months. I put her on my vision board. One week later, her secretary called: a cancellation. I knew it was fate. She respected my decision, ordered MRIs, and gave me no pushback. By then, two months had passed, but I was feeling better. I told her my bowel movements were ten years younger. My biomarkers were excellent. She was intrigued. Three days later, the MRI results came. I told my husband, “The only thing that would shock me is if it didn’t shrink.” I said it was 2.8 cm. We opened the file. Sure enough: 2.8. I’m psychic! We toasted with kale juice. A bouquet of broccoli for Irene’s cancer healing journey | Courtesy A week later, I saw her again. She recommended we push for surgery. My Doubting Thomas surgeon, skeptical as ever, scoped me again and looked stunned. “It’s 2.8 cm. It did shrink.” He showed me before-and-after footage, then said, “You look good.” Thanks? I got the green light for surgery, absent a stoma. SUCCESS. A month later, the surgery was done. I’M CANCER FREE. I’m grateful—for friends who became foxhole bitches, for Alicia who uses her platform, for my surgeon admitting chemo’s days are numbered. Immunotherapy is the future, though Big Pharma will find ways to patent and monetize it. I even looked into holistic cancer resorts. $150k a year. Rancid. The only thing you need is will…I’m not pushing my methods on anyone—I’m just sharing my road trip. For me, cancer was a blessing too. It forced me inward. It was terrifying, yes, but also empowering. My friend Carmen summed it up: “2025—a year you won’t forget, not because of anything that went wrong, but everything you did right.” Feckless C., you ain’t got nothing on me, SWEETIE! And speaking of Sweetie—my comedy special (directed by Onur Tukel, presented by Rachel Dratch) is streaming on Amazon Prime. Hard to believe I had cancer while filming it. To all my C’s out there: you are not alone. Seek and be sought. This fight is ubiquitous. Thanks for listening—impossible not to take the scenic route when cramming a memoir into one essay.

Whew! Not all mogul moves come with champagne and celebration… Sometimes, it’s about making tough calls, literally. Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, who once ruled the charts and the boardroom, just had to face one of the hardest moments any parent could imagine — and it had nothing to do with music, fashion, or Forbes lists. RELATED: Diddy’s Lawyers Push For Prison Transfer As President Trump Claims He Asked For A Presidential Pardon (UPDATES) Diddy Breaks Down During Call With Love According to TMZ, after being sentenced to 50 months in federal prison, Diddy got on the phone with the mother of his youngest child, Dana Tran. But, during the call, Dana put their 2-year-old daughter, Love, on the line. And, that’s when things reportedly turned heart-wrenching. The toddler asked her father the innocent but devastating question: when she could see him and where he was. At the time, Diddy was being held at MDC Brooklyn. We’re told he became emotional and choked up when Love said, “I miss you, Daddy.” Diddy allegedly replied, “I miss you and love you very much, Love.” He also gently told her, “Daddy’s away for a little while,” and promised he’d see her very soon. Combs Misses Another Birthday — Hopes For Pardon Love and Dana live in Los Angeles, but made the trip to NYC last week for the sentencing. While Dana attended the court hearing, Love apparently stayed at the hotel with a babysitter. The moment clearly hit hard — this upcoming Wednesday marks Love’s 3rd birthday. And, it’s yet another milestone her father won’t be there for. Sources say Diddy hasn’t seen his daughter outside of prison since August 2024, when the trio visited the Miami Children’s Museum. Now, Diddy’s future remains uncertain as he waits to find out where he’ll serve his time, but word is he’s requested a pardon from President Trump. Can Trump Save A Bad Boy? Here’s What Is Next For Diddy As reported, Diddy is pulling out all the stops and might be calling in a political favor from way back. Just days after being sentenced to 50 months in federal prison, Diddy is officially looking for his get out of jail free card — and yes, it involves none other than former President Donald Trump. During a sit-down in the Oval Office on Monday, Trump said that Diddy had reached out asking for a presidential pardon. “A lot of people have asked me for pardons,” Trump said. “I call him Puff Daddy; he has asked me for a pardon.” Now with Diddy facing over four years behind bars for transportation to engage in prostitution charges, legal experts say a pardon might be his best shot. Former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani told Fox News Digital: “This isn’t the end of the legal road for Diddy, though. He can and will appeal, and he has arguments that the judge improperly calculated the guidelines and considered acquitted conduct.” He added, “Expect a strong lobbying effort by Diddy’s team in the coming days and weeks. This story is far from over.” RELATED: Cassie’s Lawyer Releases Statement Following Diddy Being Sentenced To Four Years The post Heart On The Line?

The post Wayment! ‘RHOP’ Star Wendy Osefo & Her Husband Reportedly Booked On At Least 15 Fraud Charges Each (MUGSHOTS) appeared first on The Shade Room.

Roommates, law enforcement bagged the Doctor and Happy E this week! An exclusive report early Friday revealed that Wendy Osefo and her husband, Eddie Osefo, were booked into a Maryland jail on Thursday (October 9). The ‘Real Housewives of Potomac’ stars face multiple charges primarily centered on criminal fraud. What Charges Are Wendy & Eddie Osefo’s Facing? TMZ was the first to break the Osefos booking story. According to the outlet, Wendy faces 15 charges, including seven felonies. She’s accused of making false statements and/or giving misleading information, leading to fraud worth more than $300. US Weekly reports that a grand jury indicted her the same day she was booked. Additionally, Dr. Wendy Osefo allegedly lied to the police, picking up a one-count misdemeanor charge. Meanwhile, her husband Eddie Osefo faces 18 similar charges, including nine felonies, eight misdemeanors, and another misdemeanor, for lying to police. The couple was taken into custody in Westminster, Maryland, on Thursday, per the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office. An investigation reportedly found that Wendy and Eddie had “substantial debt.” Page Six reports that the Osefos were in the process of being released on Friday. They each reportedly have a $50,000 bond. What Did The ‘RHOP’ Couple Do? In April 2024, news surfaced about an alleged break-in at the Osefos’s home while they were on vacation in Jamaica. Reports claimed thieves stole luxury items such as jewelry and Birkin bags. Wendy Osefo eventually spoke out, saying she and her family felt “devastated and violated” but “blessed” that they weren’t home. More than a year later, officials accuse Osefos of staging the burglary and lying to collect insurance coins on top of refunds. Officials say the scheme began before the couple went on vacation. Local sheriff deputies already had suspicions when they pulled up to investigate the crime scene in the couple’s bedroom last April. At the time, they noted that the thieves’ entry point didn’t add up. A reportedly damaged window screen was lying on the home’s roof, but the bathroom window wasn’t locked. Also, there was no debris from the roof on the toilet, which thieves would’ve had to step on to get in and out the house. There was also a lack of evidence on the couple’s security footage. Documents related to this case state: “The Osefos had an ADT system and a ring camera. The Osefos activated the ADT alarm system upon leaving for vacation. During the time they were away, there was no motion detected inside the residence. There was activity, such as package deliveries, on the ring camera that was monitored remotely by the Osefos.” Their investigation reportedly revealed that the Osefos purchased and returned multiple items they later reported stolen. Although they received a full refund for the returned items, they still told police they were robbed of them. The value of those items was upwards of $20,000. For example, they claimed a Dior shirt valued at $1,450 was stolen. However, receipts proved the shirt was returned for a refund on January 14, 2023. Additionally, they reported a stolen Gucci leather belt, but cops discovered it was returned to the store two weeks after purchase in 2018 for a refund of $948.70. More Fraud Evidence Against The Couple Emails and social media were also dead giveaways of the scheme. TMZ reports that deputies clocked Wendy wearing a diamond anniversary ring she had reported stolen. How did they see it? She allegedly posted photos on Instagram on April 27, 2024, wearing the ring. Another piece of evidence? An email Eddie sent to Wendy Osefo on April 12, 2024. In it, he listed the items they later reported “stolen.” He also asked whether Wendy had any other high-value items they could add to the list. “I’m trying to get the total to exceed $423,000, which is our policy minimum,” Eddie wrote. US Weekly says cops executed a search and seizure warrant at Wendy and Eddie’s home at the time of their arrest. Deputies reportedly found at least 15 items that seem to be the same ones the couple claimed were lost to the burglary. RELATED: Real Housewife Of Potomac Wendy Osefo’s Home Was Robbed While She Was On A Family Vacation And that’s not all! Wendy and Eddie did push forward with insurance claims, as suggested in his email. He reported stolen items to two insurance companies. When asked if he had ever returned any items, he said no. Eddie also denied making more than one claim. Documents related to this fraud case say: “He was asked if he had other insurance but failed to disclose to Homesite and Jewelers that he was also making a claim with Travelers Insurance.” Also, Eddie and Wendy Osefo signed insurance statements claiming $2,500 in building damage and $450,000 in property loss. In Eddie’s first statement to Travelers on April 8, 2024, he claimed they both had their anniversary bands when the burglary happened. Two days later, though, he called back and added Wendy’s anniversary band to the claim. The company settled the claim for $25,380 and included the cost of the ring ($4,500) that Wendy still had in her possession. The couple claimed the same ring in another insurance filing with Jewelers Mutual Insurance. In signed letters from the Osefos, they listed 57 stolen items. The Osefos have not yet spoken out about their fraud charges. Candiace Dillard Bassett Reacts To Osefos’ Arrest Watch former ‘RHOP’ castmate Candiace Dillard Bassett share her initial response to the Osefos being booked on fraud charges. “I am floored, I am shocked, I’m said,” she said. Dillard questioned whether Wendy and Eddie are being “targeted” for their successful marijuana business. Despite Candiace’s comments below, the arrests are for way more money than $300. Again, police have also said the couple was in substantial debt last year. RELATED: Grande Dame Is Back!

The post Another Major L? Judge Dismisses Drake’s Defamation Lawsuit Against UMG Over ‘Not Like Us’ (UPDATE) appeared first on The Shade Room.

Drake is again walking away holding an L(oss) from a battle involving Kendrick Lamar. On Thursday (October 9), a judge dismissed the defamation lawsuit Drizzy filed against Universal Music Group (UMG) over the hit song, ‘Not Like Us.’ The federal official ruled that Kenny’s lyrics were opinion, per the Associated Press. While Drake hasn’t spoken out yet, others involved in making the track, including Mustard, seemingly have! RELATED: Yikes! Social Media Goes OFF After Kendrick Lamar Clowns Drake With THIS Skit At First Tour Stop (VIDEO) Judge Explains Why She Tossed Drake’s Lawsuit Against UMG As previously reported, Drake’s and Kendrick Lamar’s rap beef exploded in the spring of 2024. The superstars traded shots from the booth for several rounds. Then, in May, Lamar put a nail in Drizzy’s metaphorical coffin with ‘Not Like Us.’ The song became a cultural phenomenon and ate the charts up—same energy for the music video he released in July. Even celebrities once tight with Drake, such as LeBron James, picked sides. And, spoiler alert, it often wasn’t the Canadian rapper’s! ‘Not Like Us,’ which calls out Drake by name, attacks him as “a colonizer” of rap culture. It also makes serious allegations about his sex life, including “I hear you like ’em young” — a claim Drake has rejected. This week, Judge Jeannette A. Vargas acknowledged in her written opinion that ‘Not Like Us’ explicitly branded Drake as a pedophile. However, Vargas said a reasonable listener could not have concluded that the song revealed objective facts about Drake. “Although the accusation that Plaintiff is a pedophile is certainly a serious one, the broader context of a heated rap battle, with incendiary language and offensive accusations hurled by both participants, would not incline the reasonable listener to believe that ‘Not Like Us’ imparts verifiable facts about Plaintiff,” Judge Vargas wrote. An aerial photo depicting Drake’s mansion doubles as the song’s cover art. The photo, per the judge, had “an overlay of more than a dozen sex offender markers,” but Vargas said it was “obviously exaggerated and doctored.” “No reasonable person would view the Image and believe that, in fact, law enforcement had designated thirteen residents in Drake’s home as sex offenders,” Judge Vargas wrote. Judge Vargas also pointed out that Drizzy, too, took low blows in the rap beef. Before ‘Not Like Us,’ she said Drake mocked Kendrick Lamar’s height and shoe size. Additionally, he questioned Lamar’s success in the April 2024 track ‘Push Ups.’ Meanwhile, Kendrick Lamar insulted Drizzy’s fashion sense that same month in ‘Euphoria.’ Judge Vargas wrote that the insults escalated from there, becoming “vicious, personal.” Considering the medium the rappers used to insult each other, Judge Vargas concluded that the average listener knows better. She said listeners would not consider a diss track “a product of a thoughtful or disinterested investigation, conveying to the public fact-checked verifiable content.” Per AP, Vargas wrote that ‘Not Like Us’ was “replete with profanity, trash-talking, threats of violence, and figurative and hyperbolic language, all of which are indicia of opinion.” A reasonable listener, she added, “would conclude that Lamar is rapping hyperbolic vituperations.” Drake’s Team & UMG Reacts To Lawsuit Dismissal After the decision, Drake’s legal team issued a statement: “We intend to appeal today’s ruling, and we look forward to the Court of Appeals reviewing it.” For context, Drizzy filed the lawsuit in January. It does not name Kendrick Lamar. Instead, the paperwork alleges Universal Music Group (UMG) intentionally published and promoted ‘Not Like Us,’ despite knowing the lyrics contained false and defamatory allegations. The lawsuit claims the song messed up his reputation and decreased the value of his brand. Additionally, Drake alleged that the song encourages listeners to use vigilante justice against him. He even blamed ‘Not Like Us’ for attempted break-ins and the shooting of a security guard at his Toronto home. UMG immediately denied the allegations. Interestingly, Universal Music Group is the parent record label for both Drake and Kendrick Lamar. It released a statement following the lawsuit dismissal. “From the outset, this suit was an affront to all artists and their creative expression and never should have seen the light of day,” UMG said. “We’re pleased with the court’s dismissal and look forward to continuing our work successfully promoting Drake’s music and investing in his career.” Mustard Shares THIS Post After Dismissal It’s no debate that ‘Not Like Us’ was one of 2024’s biggest songs. Even Judge Vargas described it as having a “catchy beat and propulsive bassline.” Outside of court, Kendrick Lamar’s diss won record of the year and song of the year at the Grammys. It also helped make this year’s Super Bowl halftime show the most-watched ever, as fans speculated whether Lamar would actually perform it. He did, but with altered lyrics and the acknowledgment of the UMG lawsuit! Mustard, who produced the diss, joined Kenny on the Super Bowl stage. He’s stuck by the artist’s rivalry with Drake. After the dismissal news on Thursday, Mustard took to X with a post that has fans thinking it’s a response to the legal update! — Mustard (@mustard) October 9, 2025 Meanwhile, social media users on the same platform haven’t stopped cuttin’ up YET.

Just when we thought Wendy Williams’ ex-husband, Kevin Hunter, was done popping up in her business like a rerun, he’s back. But the courts just hit him with a hard “try again, sir.” The former Mr. Wendy Williams got curved by a judge after trying to file a $250 million lawsuit on her behalf, claiming she was being exploited under her court-appointed guardianship. But the gag is Wendy says she had no clue about any of it. RELATED: Pop Out, Then! Wendy Williams Stuns With Recent Look At NYFW (VIDEO) Kevin Tried It & The Judge Shut It Down According to new legal docs snatched by TMZ, the judge denied Kevin’s motion to proceed as a so-called “friend” of Wendy’s. But, the judge left the door cracked for him to refile — this time, without dragging Wendy into it. And, she made it clear during a call-in to TMZ Live that she wants no parts. Wendy even admitted she doesn’t even know how much money she has in her accounts right now. For context, Wendy is under guardianship after Wells Fargo froze her accounts in 2022 due to “suspicious activity” — and Kevin swears it’s a setup, claiming she’s being exploited. Social Media Has Wendy’s Back Social media wasted zero time running to the TMZ comment section, and let’s just say — Kevin Hunter caught all the smoke. People were dragging him left and right, with some telling him to “go get a job” instead of dipping back into Wendy’s business. Others were baffled at the audacity, asking why he, of all people, thought he should be the one questioning her guardianship after everything he allegedly put her through. One Instagram user @raymond_agaba1 commented, “Bro, go grab a job 😂” And, Instagram user @barrylinjonsdottir added, “Maybe he could try to get a job. Heard it pays“ This Instagram user @iamkimfields shared, “Good for Wendy 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽” While Instagram user @londhino wrote, “Kevin is about to hit Offset up and ask for the formula. 😂” Instagram user @joanholmes136 added, “The nerve of this man.“ Finally, Instagram user @carmelkoc21_tea said, “He cheated got a woman pregnant and he thought they would give him guardianship???“ The Backstory Behind Wendy’s Guardianship Drama Wendy Williams and Kevin Hunter’s messy 21-year marriage officially ended in 2020. This latest lawsuit just felt like another chapter in their ongoing drama. Wendy called it a cash grab from the jump, and with the judge tossing the case, Kevin was left back at square one. However, as previously reported, court documents revealed that Wendy underwent a medical evaluation, including numerous medical and neuropsychological tests and brain scans. Though the paperwork didn’t specify, sources confirmed Wendy was once again diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and aphasia, the same devastating diagnosis she received in 2023. Because of this, her guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, requested that the court extend the guardianship through November 5, with medical experts concluding Wendy does not currently have the capacity to make her own decisions.

The post Gilmore Girls Reunion at the 2025 Emmys: Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel Step Back Into Stars Hollow first appeared on The Blonde Salad.

The 77th Primetime Emmy Awards, held last night at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles, delivered a moment of pure nostalgia for TV lovers: Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel, better known as Lorelai and Rory Gilmore, reunited on stage to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Gilmore Girls. The pair took the spotlight to present the award for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series, but it was the setting that made the moment unforgettable: a recreated Stars Hollow porch, instantly transporting the audience back to the cozy charm of one of television’s most beloved towns. Between affectionate banter and witty callbacks—Graham joking about how the show “took fall hostage,” while Bledel reflected on the series’ modest early budget—the reunion sparked waves of nostalgia inside the theatre and online. Almost immediately, fans began flooding social media with calls for a new chapter in Rory and Lorelai’s story, whether in the form of a special episode or a fresh season. After the 2016 revival A Year in the Life, this Emmy appearance proved one thing: the magic of Stars Hollow endures, and two and a half decades later, Gilmore Girls remains a cultural touchstone with a devoted following eager for more.

On October 9, 2025, Netflix will premiere a brand-new three-part docuseries that shines a raw and authentic light on Victoria Beckham’s extraordinary journey. Far from a glossy biography, this series explores her transformation from global pop icon to respected fashion leader with rare honesty and depth. Directed by Nadia Hallgren, the project unfolds in three episodes that retrace Victoria’s rise: from the unstoppable phenomenon of the Spice Girls in the ’90s to her evolution into a creative director at the helm of her own fashion and beauty empire. What makes the series truly magnetic is its unfiltered tone. Victoria opens up about the challenges of living with the weight of her past, the prejudices she faced, and the determination required to redefine herself. There are moments of vulnerability, confessions, even tears—proof that this is not a polished PR exercise but a genuine self-portrait. Unlike many celebrity documentaries, the focus here is not on family dynamics but firmly on her professional and creative arc. While her children appear in passing, some—like Brooklyn and Nicola—do not feature, emphasizing that this is Victoria’s personal and artistic story. With its global release on October 9, exclusively on Netflix, the docuseries promises to be a cultural moment: an intimate, thought-provoking portrait of a woman who has continuously reinvented herself while staying true to her vision.

The post Balenciaga returns to perfumery with a bold ten-fragrance collection first appeared on The Blonde Salad.

More than seventy years after the debut of its very first perfume, Balenciaga makes a remarkable comeback in the world of fragrance with a collection that is as ambitious as it is poetic. The house has unveiled ten new scents, each carrying its own identity and narrative, conceived as a dialogue between heritage and modern innovation. At the heart of this revival lies Le Dix, the fragrance that in 1947 marked the brand’s entry into perfumery, now reinterpreted for the present while preserving its original grace and timeless elegance. The journey that led to this relaunch was meticulous and deeply rooted in research. Archivists spent years tracking down an original bottle of Le Dix, which became the foundation for reconstructing not only the formula but also the aesthetic details of the packaging. The new design honors tradition with sculptural bottles, glass stoppers, and hand-finished ribbons, while embracing a sustainable vision with recyclable and refillable components, reflecting Balenciaga’s commitment to both artistry and responsibility. Beyond Le Dix, the collection expands into a rich and diverse olfactory palette with creations such as No Comment, Getaria, Muscara, Cristóbal, Incense Perfumum and Twenty Four Seven. Each fragrance explores contrasts of light and shadow, delicacy and intensity, minimalism and opulence. Together, they embody Balenciaga’s bold duality: refined yet provocative, classic yet avant-garde, couture yet contemporary. Positioned within the high luxury segment, the collection elevates fragrance to the level of collectible objects, with price points reflecting exclusivity and craftsmanship. Its arrival also coincides with a new creative chapter for the house, marked by the appointment of Pierpaolo Piccioli as creative director, a choice that promises to bring Balenciaga back to its couture essence while redefining its codes for the modern era. This collection is more than a series of perfumes—it is a manifesto of style and vision. By bridging the maison’s storied heritage with today’s avant-garde spirit, Balenciaga reaffirms the power of fragrance as a form of storytelling, couture artistry, and sensory transformation.

The night also belonged to Lady Gaga, who led the nominations and left with four Moon Persons, including the coveted Artist of the Year. Her high-octane performance reminded everyone why she remains one of pop’s most electrifying and inventive forces. Another name on everyone’s lips was Sabrina Carpenter, who continues her unstoppable rise.

Ricky Martin made history with the very first Latin Icon Award, celebrating decades of hits and his trailblazing role in bringing Latin music to the global stage. His medley performance had the entire arena on its feet, a reminder of his timeless impact. Elsewhere, Ariana Grande scored Video of the Year with “Brighter Days Ahead”, Rosé became the first K-pop soloist to win Song of the Year with Bruno Mars for “APT.”, and Alex Warren was crowned Best New Artist. Coldplay, Shakira, Doechii, Megan Moroney and more rounded out a winners’ list that spanned every corner of the music world.

There’s a reason why flowy maxi dresses make a strong comeback every summer — they’re breezy, romantic, and effortlessly stylish. And when Bella Hadid steps out wearing one, the boho-chic vibe instantly becomes the season’s must-have look. Spotted recently in a semi-sheer ivory maxi dress with delicate lace cutouts and a plunging neckline, Bella proves that a seemingly simple dress can become a statement piece — when styled just right. Sunglasses & Western boots: the cool girl combo The twist? Bella paired her dreamy dress with retro honey-tinted sunglasses and a bold pair of carved cowboy boots. The rugged contrast adds edge to the romantic base, blending bohemian elegance with western flair — the ultimate formula for summer style with personality. Why boho dresses are a summer essential (again) The boho trend is back in full swing for Summer 2025, thanks to its floaty silhouettes, lightweight textures, and intricate crochet or lace details that add movement and femininity. Perfect for daywear with flat sandals or espadrilles, and easily elevated for the evening with boots or statement heels. How to recreate the look Choose a light-colored maxi dress in cotton or linen with lace or asymmetric cuts. Play with accessories: tinted sunglasses, statement earrings, slouchy bags. On your feet? Cowboy boots, vintage sandals, or retro wedges. Contrast is everything. With a look like this, boho isn’t just a trend — it’s a way of embracing summer with freedom, softness, and undeniable style.

After years of rumors and speculation, The Devil Wears Prada 2 is finally happening. The sequel to the iconic 2006 film is officially in production and promises to bring back all the glamour, sharp satire, and fashion that made the original a pop culture phenomenon. Here’s everything we know so far — cast details, plot hints, behind-the-scenes scoops, and the first photos from the set in New York. When Does The Devil Wears Prada 2 Come Out? The highly anticipated sequel is set to hit theaters on May 1, 2026. Filming began in late June 2025 in New York City, with additional scenes planned in Italy. The movie is shaping up to be a major event for both fashion lovers and cinema fans. The Cast: Iconic Returns and Exciting New Faces The original cast is back and better than ever: Meryl Streep reprises her role as the legendary Miranda Priestly, still reigning over Runway with icy elegance. Anne Hathaway returns as Andy Sachs, now with a more polished yet recognizable style. Emily Blunt is once again Emily Charlton, this time in a powerful new role. Stanley Tucci steps back into the fabulous shoes of Nigel, Miranda’s loyal art director. The Plot: Miranda vs Emily, with Andy Caught in the Middle The sequel picks up in present-day New York, where Miranda Priestly is grappling with the decline of traditional publishing. Runway is in trouble, and to save the magazine, Miranda is forced to confront a new generation of industry power — led by Emily, now an executive in a global luxury empire. In the middle of it all is Andy, who appears to have returned to the fashion world. Her role is still under wraps, but early clues suggest she will play a key part in navigating the clash between past loyalties, present rivalries, and future reinvention. The storyline promises a sharp and stylish reflection on generational change, power dynamics, and the evolution of fashion media. First Set Photos: The Cast Reunites in NYC Leaked photos from the New York set have ignited excitement online. Meryl Streep was spotted in a signature look: a purple ensemble paired with a peach trench and oversized sunglasses — Miranda is officially back. Anne Hathaway stunned in modern, editorial-ready outfits, including a cerulean look that fans immediately recognized as a nod to the original film. Emily Blunt, with her red hair and sleek black-and-white suit, perfectly channels her character’s ambition and edge. Stanley Tucci was seen filming scenes with Miranda, bringing his signature charm and fashion savvy back to the screen. The wardrobe appears to be meticulously curated, mixing vintage references with current runway trends — all with that unmistakable Runway touch. Why The Devil Wears Prada 2 Is the Sequel We’ve Been Waiting For The original film defined an era and made style, wit, and ambition iconic. This sequel arrives at the perfect cultural moment, tapping into Y2K nostalgia while exploring the digital reinvention of fashion. With the original cast reunited and a modernized plot, The Devil Wears Prada 2 promises to deliver drama, elegance, and plenty of unforgettable one-liners.

The post Kate Middleton at Wimbledon: 14 years of impeccable style first appeared on The Blonde Salad.

During the trophy ceremony for Jannik Sinner’s historic Wimbledon victory – the first ever by an Italian man – a voice rang out from the stands: “I love you Kate!”. Smiling gracefully, the Princess of Wales clapped for the new champion, effortlessly radiating elegance and poise. Once again, she wasn’t just a spectator. She was part of the story – as she’s been for over a decade. Kate Middleton’s relationship with Wimbledon goes far beyond royal protocol. Since 2011, she’s turned every appearance into a fashion moment, blending tradition, symbolism and contemporary elegance with the precision of a master storyteller. Every look has been deliberate, every detail meaningful – from the brand choices to the subtle nods to her family, her role, and the moment in time. Her earliest appearances saw her favoring classic British labels like Alexander McQueen, Jenny Packham and Emilia Wickstead, with occasional Dolce & Gabbana and Ralph Lauren touches. Whether she was in a lemon yellow Roksanda or a structured white Self-Portrait dress, her Wimbledon looks always captured the perfect balance between royal formality and effortless chic. Who could forget the 2018 match when she attended alongside Meghan Markle? Two duchesses, two styles, one cultural flashpoint. Kate wore Dolce & Gabbana in vibrant yellow, while Meghan opted for a crisp white Ralph Lauren ensemble. It was fashion diplomacy, played out courtside. Over the years, bold colors like emerald green and royal blue became part of her Wimbledon signature. Her green Dolce & Gabbana dress remains one of the most talked-about royal looks of the decade. And as with Princess Diana, there’s a subtle thread of homage: both women understood the power of fashion as language, as symbolism, as memory. In 2024, following her cancer diagnosis, Kate returned to Wimbledon in a powerful deep violet Safiyaa gown. It wasn’t just a dress—it was a message. A message of hope, resilience, and grace under pressure. The standing ovation she received said it all. And in 2025, she sealed her status as the queen of Centre Court style: a pristine white Self-Portrait suit, paired with Gianvito Rossi heels, a sleek Anya Hindmarch tote and Cartier jewellery. Always with the Wimbledon pin proudly worn on her lapel, and the signature Cartier Ballon Bleu on her wrist – a gift from William that quietly tells its own love story. Kate Middleton isn’t just a royal attending Wimbledon. She’s a living thread in the fabric of the tournament. A timeless symbol of elegance, consistency, and grace – both on and off the court. And if yesterday someone shouted “I love you Kate!”, it’s because fashion, like tennis, has its champions. And Kate is undoubtedly one of them.

Mattel and Paramount honor an iconic teen film today with a nostalgic throwback. To mark Clueless’s 30th anniversary, officially licensed Cher Horowitz and Dionne Davenport Barbies have arrived — ready to win over retro lovers everywhere. Cher Horowitz Barbie dons the famous yellow plaid outfit: cropped blazer, pleated skirt, fuzzy sweater vest, knee-high socks, and platform heels. Completing the ensemble: a white fuzzy backpack, flip phone, and the classic learner’s permit in hand. Every accessory is faithful to the movie . Similarly, Dionne Davenport Barbie delivers her signature style — a black-and-white plaid suit, fuzzy red vest, and iconic patent leather hat. Knee-high socks, platform heels, and bold earrings add flawless authenticity. Each doll is priced at $60, with shipping expected by September 26. Preorders are open now. But that’s not all: the Clueless 30th collection also includes American Girl doll outfits, themed Uno cards, a Polly Pocket set featuring Tai’s house, and Little People collectibles of the main characters. This launch coincides with the release of The Fashion of Clueless, a new book by the film’s costume designer Mona May. The book dives into the fashion choices that shaped the movie’s cultural legacy. May expressed feeling “delighted and proud” that Clueless’s iconic looks still resonate strongly three decades later. For a fashion-savvy audience enamored with nostalgia and pop culture, these Barbies are more than dolls — they’re stylish keepsakes, memory triggers, and collector’s items that teleport us back to glam 1990s Beverly Hills, full of preppy plaid and unforgettable “As if!” moments.

                                          Are you looking to be cheered up? Honestly, who isn’t? We could all always use another reason to smile. Whether you’re feeling blue and want to be uplifted or you’re feeling great and just want to keep the good vibes rolling, these five Netflix shows are the perfect solution. From heartwarming comedies to good-natured reality TV and awe-inspiring documentaries, there’s something that will make you happy on our October 2025 list of joyful Netflix series. Check out the Watch With Us team’s top choices below. ‘Gilmore Girls’ (2000–2007) It’s a law of nature: as the leaves start to turn, we start to hear those distinctive “La, la, las” that mean it’s time for a Gilmore Girls rewatch. There’s something so soothing about returning to the world of Stars Hollow, Connecticut, where mother-daughter duo Lorelai (Lauren Graham) and Rory (Alexis Bledel) talk at a rapid pace about coffee and pop culture at Luke’s (Scott Patterson) Diner. Whether they’re navigating Lorelai’s prickly relationship with her parents, Richard and Emily (Edward Herrmann and Kelly Bishop), or Rory’s tortured love life (Team Logan forever!), the stakes are low, the quips are clever and early 2000s fashion is… let’s call it eye-catching. ‘A Man on the Inside’ (2024–Present) The Good Place creator Michael Schur joins forces with Ted Danson once again for this mystery sitcom about Charles, a retired engineer who takes a job assisting a private investigator when his daughter (Mary Elizabeth Ellis) encourages him to find something to do with his time. Instead of organizing paperwork, Charles ends up going undercover in a nursing home to recover a stolen necklace. Warm and witty, A Man on the Inside is full of twists, but it still feels calm and sweet. The show is returning for a second season on November 20, so October is the perfect time to get to know the charming cast of characters, which includes Stephanie Beatriz and will feature Danson’s wife, Mary Steenburgen, in season 2. 7 Best Comedy Shows on Prime Video Right Now (September 2025) ‘The Great British Baking Show’ (2010–Present) It’s referred to as The Great British Bake Off or The Great British Baking Show, depending on your region, but one thing is universally agreed upon — the supportive, nonjudgmental vibes and the culinary artistry on this show are an absolute delight to watch. Judges like Paul Hollywood, Mary Berry and Prue Leith lend their sweet expertise to these talented bakers, who assemble under a tent to create some truly mind-blowing confections. 13 Must-Watch Reality Shows on Netflix Right Now (September 2025) ‘Is It Cake?’ (2022–Present) Speaking of mind-blowing pastry creations, remember that weird internet trend when people were doing pranks with stuff that was actually made out of cake? Somehow, that became a TV show — and somehow, it’s really fun to watch. Saturday Night Live alum Mikey Day hosts this reality competition series, in which bakers are challenged to make everyday objects out of cake while guest judges determine which one is the real deal. Judges have included fellow SNL stars like Ego Nwodim, as well as comedy favorites like Joel McHale and fitness influencer Ally Love. And the cakes can be anything from bowling balls to hamburgers to high-end sneakers. So … is it cake?? Ozzy Osbourne's Final Years Documented in Trailer for 'Coming Home' Doc ‘Wild Babies’ (2022) It’s hard to imagine a sentence that sells a show better than “It’s a bunch of baby animals,” but we’ll do our best. In Wild Babies, we follow young creatures, including dolphins, orangutans, pangolins, and many more, which are beautifully personified by the filmmakers. Narrated by the always charming Helena Bonham Carter with a certain cheeky flair, the eight-part docuseries takes the struggles of these animals seriously. After all, growing up is hard for every species. When you consider the fact that we almost never worry about being devoured by predators, we humans actually have it pretty easy. Despite the many obstacles these adorable creatures face, it’s hard not to be delighted by these Wild Babies — in fact, we dare you to try.

                                          Jane Krakowski Needs Help Escaping Conservatorship on 'Brilliant Minds'

                                          Zachary Quinto has a big medical mystery on his hands in an upcoming episode of Brilliant Minds, which introduces Jane Krakowski‘s chilling character.

                                          Zachary Quinto has a big medical mystery on his hands in an upcoming episode of Brilliant Minds, which introduces Jane Krakowski‘s chilling character. In Us Weekly‘s first look at the episode, which airs on Monday October 13, Oliver Wolf (Quinto) visits a patient who needs his medical help. Krakowski’s character is seen largely not speaking while Oliver examines the bruises on her body. “We are here to assess you,” he says. “Can you tell us where you are? What happened? Can you look at my pen light and follow it with your eyes?” Arianna (Krakowski) isn’t able to follow the light, which is when Oliver noticed a subtle message his patient was able to leave with some paper cranes. They were arranged on the floor to spell the word “help,” which concerned the doctor. Us Investigates How the New Slate of Medical TV Shows Differ From Each Other According to the official character description, Krakowski plays “a high-powered businesswoman who fights her conservatorship despite her family’s growing concerns.” Brilliant Minds, which premiered in September 2024, is inspired by the Oliver Sacks books The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat and An Anthropologist on Mars. The show follows a neurologist and his team of interns as they tackle challenging neurology cases while dealing with their own relationships and mental health. Pief Weyman/NBC The NBC procedural has been met with critical success, and Quinto, 48, is also making history. Oliver is the first openly gay character to lead a network medical series. “I think the thing for me that is so significant about that is that it’s not significant at all. Actually, it’s not significant to the character,” Quinto said on The Drew Barrymore Show in December 2024. “It’s an aspect of who the character is and NBC was really open to and invested in this story, the value of this story in our contemporary culture and the conversations that are happening today in the society.” Quinto noted that the role meant “so much” to him because it is based on Sacks, who died in 2015. Best Medical TV Shows of All Time: ‘ER,’ ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ and More “He lived and worked primarily in the mid-20th century, and he was a gay man himself and was celibate for 35 years of his life. When I found that out, I was like, ‘If you’re not somehow called to the clergy or living a life that restricts that, why would you ever make a choice like that?'” the actor recalled. “Then the more I learned about him and the more I read about him and the more that I observed why someone would make that decision, it became clear to me that it was because he didn’t feel he could be authentically himself and be afforded the same opportunities in his field of medicine. He knew he was designed to change the field of medicine, which he did.” After reading about the inspiration for Brilliant Minds, Quinto believed the role would be “an honor” to take on. “The tragedy of his life was that he felt like if he brought that part of himself into his work, he would have been denied those opportunities,” he explained. “So for me to be in this situation now — a generation later — and to be an openly gay man who’s leading this show and who’s telling this story, it’s such an opportunity to honor the original man himself, Oliver Sacks.” He concluded: “And to say how grateful I am that I don’t have to cut that part of myself off in order to enjoy a life of fulfillment and success.” Brilliant Minds airs on NBC Mondays at 10 p.m. ET. New episodes stream the next day on Peacock.

                                          Ryan Reynolds Would've Had a 'Punching Vasectomy' if He Had All Boys

                                          Being a dad can be nuts — or it could cost you yours. Ryan Reynolds is a proud father of four, sharing three daughters and a son with wife Blake Lively.

                                          Being a dad can be nuts — or it could cost you yours. Ryan Reynolds is a proud father of four, sharing three daughters and a son with wife Blake Lively. The pair welcomed Olin, 2, the first boy in the family, in 2023, and he told Seth Meyers that having a son has made him, well, a little testy. “If I had like three boys at first, I would never — there’s no way,” Reynolds, 48, joked to the Late Night with Seth Meyers host during an appearance on the Thursday, October 9, episode. “I would give myself a punching vasectomy. Like, there’s no way I would allow that to happen.” Reynolds and Lively, 38, are also parents to daughters James, 10, Inez, 9, and Betty, 6. The actor explained how life changed once they brought Olin into the mix. Blake Lively Says Her 2-Year-Old Son Is ‘So Romantic’ “We live in a very, like, there’s nothing violent in our home,” the Deadpool & Wolverine star said. “There’s nothing creepy. [But Olin] came out with three things on his mind. It was violence, breasts and engines.” “I really don’t understand where this comes from,” he continued, adding that having three girls was “so easy,” whereas it appears a son has to “break everything.” Ryan Reynolds and Seth Meyers Photo by: Lloyd Bishop/NBC The experience, Reynolds said, made him feel for his own mom, who had four boys. “I’m, like, in direct competition with this young man,” he said of Olin. “No he’s — I’m the youngest of four boys, and boy do I feel for my mom. You know, like, I really do. My dad, meh. But my mom really.” How Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds Parent With 'Working Class' Youth in Mind Compare that to how Lively described Olin in a May appearance on Meyers’ show. “My little boy is so romantic,” she said. “When I walk in, he goes, ‘Mama, my love!’ Oh, he’s just a dream. I mean like, they’re chaos. It’s chaos at all times,” Lively said. “Like, he just announces that I’m the love of his life at all times, which is just the best feeling in the world,” she continued. “I get dressed every day, like a girl in middle school, and I’m like, ‘Oh my gosh, I hope he thinks … I hope he says something.’” Reynolds, meanwhile, reflected on his childhood and the chaos he and his brothers would inflict on each other. “Do you know how many times my brothers had me exit a room not through the door?” he asked. “I was a moving target that they would use. You know cops, what they would use when they’re breaking into the place with a battering ram, that was my head. I was the ram.” “I mean like when I was 8, I’m not making this up. I knew how to patch drywall,” he continued. “That right there says a lot. Like I knew how to — literally, a hole in the wall, I could repair that in less than six minutes before my dad got home perfectly. Like spackle, sand, and paint, we’re good.” Ryan Reynolds Gets Real About Him and Blake Lively Co-Sleeping With 4 Kids Reynolds and Lively have been together since 2011 after sparking romance rumors following their onscreen collaboration in Green Lantern. They tied the knot in 2012. Lively gushed about her husband during the 36th American Cinematheque Award ceremony in 2022, praising his “heart, his philanthropy, his humor, his integrity, his unmatched work ethic, his self-deprecating levity, his hard-earned depths, and his grace.”

                                          The Real Housewives of Potomac star Wendy Osefo and husband Eddie Osefo have been arrested for fraud, Us Weekly confirmed.

                                          The Real Housewives of Potomac star Wendy Osefo and husband Eddie Osefo have been arrested for fraud, Us Weekly confirmed. A grand jury indicted Wendy, 41, on insurance fraud, conspiracy insurance fraud and false statement to police officer on Thursday, October 9, according to court documents obtained by Us. Eddie, 41, and Wendy were booked in Westminster, Maryland, on Thursday, according to court records. The couple was released on Friday, October 10, after posting $50,000 bond each, a rep for the Carroll County Detention Center confirmed to Us. “Dr. Wendy Osefo and her husband, Edward Osefo, are back home safely with their family and in good spirits,” a rep for the couple told Us in a statement. “They are grateful for the outpouring of concern and support from friends, fans, and colleagues. The Osefos, alongside their legal team, look forward to their day in court. At this time, they respectfully ask for privacy as they focus on their family and the legal process ahead.” TMZ was the first to report the news. Wendy Osefo Addresses Rumors About 'Real Housewives of Potomac’ Season 10 The couple’s arrests came after the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call of a reported burglary at their home in April 2024, according to the docs. Wendy and Eddie claimed that they had gone on a trip to Jamaica and came back to find their bedroom and closets ransacked, as well as several designer handbags and jewelry stolen. Wendy Osefo and Eddie Osefo. JC Olivera/Variety via Getty Images “There was a screen with damage laying on the roof, and the window was not locked. To go in or out of that window, one has to step on the toilet. The toilet lid was down and had no debris on it. When Sheriff’s office personnel stepped onto the roof and back into the home, they tracked roof ‘grit’ back inside,” the docs read. The docs continue, “The Osefos had an ADT system and a ring camera. The Osefos activated the ADT alarm system upon leaving for vacation. During the time they were away, there was no motion detected inside the residence. There was activity, such as package deliveries, on the ring camera that was monitored remotely by the Osefos.” Eddie gave statements to two insurance companies regarding a list of stolen items. Wendy Osefo Carroll County Detention Center “He was asked whether any of the items on the list had been returned, which he denied. He was asked if he had other insurance but failed to disclose to Homesite and Jewelers that he was also making a claim with Travelers Insurance.” Eddie and Wendy both signed statements claiming $2,500 for the building and $450,000 in property. In his original claim submitted to Travelers on April 8, 2024, Eddie stated that he and his wife were wearing their anniversary bands when the loss occurred. However, Eddie called Travelers two days later and said he needed to update their claim because his wife’s gold diamond anniversary band was missing. Eddie Osefo Carroll County Detention Center That same day, Travelers Insurance settled the claim for $25,380, which included the replacement price of the band ($4,500). After their initial claim in April 2024, both Wendy and Eddie signed and submitted letters to Jewelers Mutual Insurance claiming that the burglary occurred and items were reported stolen. They provided the insurance company with an initial list of 57 stolen items, including Wendy’s gold diamond anniversary band that had been reported stolen in the Travelers claim. 'RHOP’ Star Karen Huger’s DUI Scandal, Jail Time: Everything to Know On April 22, 2024, Eddie was interviewed and did not make any mention of the jewelry claim or payout with Travelers. Deputies were suspicious of the circumstances surrounding the burglary, as well as records from stores where some of the allegedly stolen items were purchased and the couple’s social media and email accounts. An investigation determined that numerous items that the Osefos claimed were stolen had been purchased and then returned to the store, where a full refund was provided prior to the alleged burglary. These items were valued in excess of $20,000. A Dior shirt was listed as a stolen item valued at $1,450, but the shirt had returned on January 14, 2023, for a refund. A Gucci leather wallet was purchased in 2018 and returned two weeks later for a refund of $948.70. Additionally, while reviewing Wendy’s Instagram account, deputies observed photos of the reality star prior to the burglary wearing a diamond anniversary band on her left finger. This ring was reported stolen in the burglary. After the reported burglary, on April 27, 2024, Wendy was seen wearing the same ring on her left finger. Real Housewives’ Legal Troubles Through the Years Email records obtained by deputies showed that on April 12, 2024, Eddie emailed the list of reportedly stolen items to Wendy. The email asked if there were “additional high-value items we can add to this inventory listing (i.e., Chanel shoes, etc.)? I’m trying to get the total to exceed $423,000 which is our policy maximum.” At the time of their arrest, a search and seizure warrant was executed for Wendy and Eddie’s home. Deputies found at least 15 items that appear to be the same ones they claimed to be stolen during the alleged burglary. The investigation found that the Osefos were “burdened by substantial debt.” Wendy has been a cast member on RHOP since season 5 in 2020. Bravo Captures Karen Huger’s Release From Jail in ‘RHOP’ Sneak Peek “I know some of the ladies. We run in similar social circles, and I sit on some of the same nonprofit boards,” the political commentator told The Washington Post of her casting in August 2020. “Since that was the case, it was a very organic relationship, and I was approached to do the show.” Wendy’s arrest comes shortly after her RHOP costar Karen Huger was released from prison in September following her 2024 DUI arrest. Huger, 62, had initially been sentenced to two years in prison with one year suspended, meaning she would serve one year behind bars, but she was released after serving just over six months. Wendy reacted to Huger’s sentence in an exclusive interview with Us in February. “I was definitely shocked, but I’m just keeping her in my prayers because I’m sure it’s a very difficult time for her,” she told Us.

                                          If you subscribe to Prime Video, chances are you’re a movie fan. The streamer caters to every genre and interest a cinephile could possibly have, with hundreds of high-quality movies currently available. Watch With Us has compiled a quick list of underrated Prime Video movies you should watch this weekend. The boxing drama Southpaw, the horror movie Cat People and the Bond flick Die Another Day all offer distinct pleasures that have gone underappreciated throughout the years. ‘Southpaw’ (2015) When you think of boxing movies, you probably think of any of the Rocky or Creed movies and maybe Raging Bull. But the subgenre has dozens of high-quality films, and a more recent one is Antoine Fuqua’s Southpaw. Jake Gyllenhaal stars as Billy Hope, a boxing champ with a loving wife, Maureen (Rachel McAdams) and daughter, Leila (Oona Laurence). After a tragic accident, Billy’s life spirals out of control, causing him to lose his family, wealth and nearly his life. 9 New Movies to Watch This Weekend on Netflix, Prime Video and More (Oct. 10-12) When a young boxer, Miguel (Miguel Gomez), challenges him to a fight, Billy sees it as an opportunity to regain his old life. But the path to redemption is paved with roadblocks, and he’ll need help training to be the expert fighter he used to be. Can Jake win the respect of his family again? Or will he die trying? Jake Gyllenhaal, Oona Laurence in Southpaw Scott Garfield / © Weinstein Company / courtesy Everett Collection If you’ve seen any boxing movie, you won’t be surprised by Southpaw’s narrative trajectory. But what makes the movie worth seeing is Gyllenhaal’s stripped-down, intense performance. Billy’s downfall is brutal to watch, and Gyllenhaal makes you feel every ounce of pain his character endures. That’s what makes Billy’s comeback so satisfying to watch – it feels authentic and earned. Southpaw is streaming on Prime Video. ‘Cat People’ (1982) Irena Gallier (Nastassja Kinski) arrives in New Orleans with a mission – to find her long-lost brother Paul (Malcolm McDowell), whom she hasn’t seen in years. Once she finds him, she notices something is off with him. He disappears for weeks at a time and then reappears without any explanation. Meanwhile, a wild black panther is stalking and killing the city’s residents in increasingly violent ways. Irena begins to believe Paul is the killer panther, but is she projecting her own fears onto a relative she barely knows? A loose remake of the 1942 film of the same name, Cat People is visceral, sexual and often extremely violent. It’s also very good, and it’s the rare horror movie that uses the genre to explore taboo eroticism in a non-exploitative manner. Kinski is at her youthful best as the naive Irena, and the film’s Giorgio Moroder-scored soundtrack really gets the blood pumping. One of the best songs of the ‘80s, David Bowie’s “Cat People (Putting Out Fire),” originated here, and it’s the perfect complement to a movie that seems perpetually in heat. Cat People is streaming on Prime Video. ‘Die Another Day’ (2022) James Bond has appeared in more than 30 movies, and most of them have been good. A few have been stinkers, and one frequently ranked at the bottom of the 007 film list is Die Another Day, which was Pierce Brosnan’s fourth and last appearance as the British super spy. It’s silly, frequently stupid and often incoherent. It’s also wickedly fun, with a breathless, “what the hell?” pace, a trio of memorable villains and Halle Berry wielding a gun in a bikini. Can you get any more James Bond than that? 28 Must-Watch Movies on Prime Video Right Now (September 2025) The movie’s overstuffed plot involves Bond pursuing Colonel Moon (Will Yun Lee), a North Korean dictator who is stashing away North African diamonds for mysterious purposes. His pursuit leads him to Jinx (Berry), an NSA agent who is investigating a gene therapy clinic that can alter a person’s appearance. What does one have to do with the other? That’s what Bond wants to find out, and he’ll travel to the ends of the world – namely, Iceland – to find out. Toby Stephens, Rosamund Pike, Madonna, Pierce Brosnan in Die Another Day MGM/courtesy Everett Collection Die Another Day doesn’t make any sense, but the movie never really bothers to be as realistic as, say, the Jason Bourne movies. This is a film that embraces silliness with open arms, like when Bond drives in an invisible car across an iceberg or a Music-era Madonna randomly showing up as a fencing instructor. It’s a welcome break from the grave seriousness of the later Daniel Craig movies and shows the sillier side of the iconic spy hero we all know and love. Die Another Day is streaming on Prime Video.

                                          Angelina Jolie Doesn't 'Regret' Having Double Mastectomy, Removing Ovaries

                                          • Celebrity News

                                          Angelina Jolie is looking back on her personal decision to undergo a double mastectomy and ovary removal. “I did choose to have that [surgery] because I lost my mother and my grandmother very young,” Jolie, 50, told Hello! in a Tuesday, October 7, profile, referring to her relatives’ respective cancer battles. “I have the BRCA […]

                                          Angelina Jolie is looking back on her personal decision to undergo a double mastectomy and ovary removal. “I did choose to have that [surgery] because I lost my mother and my grandmother very young,” Jolie, 50, told Hello! in a Tuesday, October 7, profile, referring to her relatives’ respective cancer battles. “I have the BRCA gene, so I chose to have a double mastectomy a decade ago.” The BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes help produce proteins to help repair an individual’s DNA, according to the NIH’s National Cancer Institute. Mutations of the genes are often linked to an increased risk of breast, ovarian and other types of cancer. “I’ve also had my ovaries removed, because that’s what took my mother. Those are my choices,” Jolie told Hello! on Tuesday. “I don’t say everybody should do it that way, but it’s important to have the choice. I don’t regret it.” Angelina Jolie Honors Her Late Mother With Call for Cancer Screenings Jolie’s mother, Marcheline Bertrand, died in 2007 at the age of 56 after battling both breast and ovarian cancer. Bertrand’s death subsequently inspired Jolie to undergo her preventive surgeries. “Once I knew that this was my reality. I decided to be proactive and to minimize the risk as much [as] I could,” Jolie wrote in a 2013 essay for The New York Times. “I made a decision to have a preventive double mastectomy. During that time I have been able to keep this private and to carry on with my work, but I am writing about it now because I hope that other women can benefit from my experience.” She continued, “I can tell my children that they don’t need to fear they will lose me to breast cancer. It is reassuring that they see nothing that makes them uncomfortable. They can see my small scars and that’s it. Everything else is just Mommy, the same as she always was.” Angelina Jolie Through the Years: From Movie Vixen to Mom of 6 In Tuesday’s interview, Jolie, who shares six children with ex-husband Brad Pitt, further likened her personal history of cancer to her role in the upcoming movie Couture. Jolie portrays a filmmaker named Maxine who was diagnosed with breast cancer. As she grapples with her health scare and treatment options, she also seduces her colleague (Louis Garrel). “I think there’s much to say about this, and it is uniting for not just women but for anybody who’s gone through something, or someone who feels vulnerable and alone,” Jolie told Hello! “There’s something very particular to women’s cancers, because it obviously affects us, and how we feel as women.” She added, “When I read the script, I had an idea of where the film was going to go — and I certainly didn’t think it would end the way this film ends. I didn’t think … that the desire would still be a part of the film, and I think that it’s really important to understand that and to continue to live and be desirous and feel as a woman, and for those who love those women, to remind them that maybe that’s something that you can do.”

                                          ‘Chicago Med’ Cast Reacts to Will and Natalie’s Season 11 Return: Watch

                                          • Entertainment

                                          Chicago Med’s Dr. Will Halstead and Dr. Natalie Manning no longer work at Gaffney Chicago Medical Center — but their return to the city and the show has the cast buzzing. “I am just so excited about Natalie and Will coming back,” S. Epatha Merkerson, who plays Sharon Goodwin on the NBC series, says in […]

                                          Chicago Med’s Dr. Will Halstead and Dr. Natalie Manning no longer work at Gaffney Chicago Medical Center — but their return to the city and the show has the cast buzzing. “I am just so excited about Natalie and Will coming back,” S. Epatha Merkerson, who plays Sharon Goodwin on the NBC series, says in Us Weekly’s exclusive first look at Nick Gehlfuss and Torrey DeVitto’s joint return to the Windy City during the upcoming Wednesday, October 14, episode. Oliver Platt, who plays Dr. Daniel Charles, adds, “Having Nick and Torrey back was just an absolute blast.” The clip then jumps to a scene from the upcoming episode in which a pregnant Natalie (DeVitto) arrives in Chicago after getting a call about her son, Owen (Frankie DeMaio), being shot while in town with Will (Gehlfuss) for a boys’ trip. Nick Gehlfuss and Torrey DeVitto on ‘Chicago Med.’ George Burns Jr/NBC “Daniel? What are you doing here?” Natalie says as she comes down an escalator to find her old coworker ready to get her. “I’m picking you up,” Dr. Charles replies before giving her a big hug. “I’m ecstatic to have some OGs back in the building,” Darren Barnet, who is a newer face on Med playing Dr. John Frost, says in the video. “They’re amazing as people, amazing as actors, amazing performers [and] human beings.” Chicago Med's Nick Gehlfuss Teases Will's 'Perfectly Tense’ Hannah Reunion Jessy Schram, who plays one of Will’s former flames Dr. Hannah Asher, tells the cameras she is over-the-moon about seeing her old castmates again. “Stepping into this new season, coming back to set just feels like home. Being with our crew, our cast and to have Nick and Torrey there it feels really surreal, and it just feels so natural,” Schram, 39, says. “I’ve definitely missed both of them and I know everybody else has.” Nick Gehlfuss and Darren Barnet on ‘Chicago Med.’ George Burns Jr/NBC Steven Weber, who plays Dr. Dean Archer, is in agreement about having the OG stars back at homebase. “It’s fantastic having Nick Gehlfuss back and, of course, Torrey DeVitto, both show favorites, fan favorites,” he gushes. Luke Mitchell, who portrays Dr. Mitch Ripley, notes that it’s “cool having them back” in the fold. “It just feels right. They’re really lovely people and super talented. Having them back feels like they never left,” the actor shares. Goodbye, Dr. Halstead! Nick Gehlfuss Exits ‘Chicago Med’ After 8 Seasons While the cast was excited to catch up with Gehlfuss and DeVitto following their respective exits in 2023 and 2021, their joint return to Chicago Med won’t be all sunshine and roses. Gehlfuss’ Will left the show during the season 8 finale in 2023 where he was reunited with Natalie and her son, Owen, in Seattle. (Natalie, meanwhile, left Chicago for a new adventure during the season 7 premiere in 2021.) During the Wednesday, October 8, episode, fans saw Will’s return to Chicago in an attempt to bond with Owen ahead of Natalie giving birth to the couple’s first baby. (Natalie is 20 weeks pregnant with her and Will’s first baby. Owen is from Natalie’s prior relationship.) Torrey DeVitto and Steven Weber on ‘Chicago Med.’ George Burns Jr/NBC Will found himself involved in a case at the hospital after seeing a boy get pushed out of a car in bad shape. Will initially butted heads with Dr. Frost over the boys’ treatment — the kid was a drug mule — but ultimately the kid gets treated. As the doctors perform surgery on the mule, they get held up at gunpoint by a woman wanting the cocaine. Dr. Caitlin Lenox (Sarah Ramos) then confronted the gunwoman and as the credits rolled she fled, but not before fans heard gunshots go off in the lobby. One Chicago Stars Who Left the Franchise: Where Are They Now? The cameras panned to Natalie getting a call that her son, Owen, had been shot, which sets up her return to Chicago on next week’s episode. In Us’ exclusive preview, Natalie does arrive in town to see her son and seemingly finds herself under doctors’ watch. In one clip, a tearful Natalie is in a hospital bed, wearing a gown as Will sits by her bedside and they nod their heads. Fans will have to wait until Wednesday to see if Natalie’s baby is OK and what happens to Owen. Chicago Med airs on NBC Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET.

                                          Former Vanderpump Rules stars Ariana Madix and Katie Maloney’s legal battle over their sandwich shop, Something About Her, is set to be dismissed months before they were scheduled for trial, Us Weekly can exclusively report. On October 2, Penny Davidi, who filed suit against the reality stars in 2024 for breach of contract, informed the court she was dismissing all claims. She noted the dismissal was conditional, and certain conditions are expected to be met by the parties. (The details of those conditions have not been made public.) Davidi’s decision to toss the case comes after the judge scheduled the trial to start on March 16, 2026. In her lawsuit, Davidi claimed she was hired in 2023 to work as a chef at Madix, 40, and Maloney’s restaurant in West Hollywood. In court documents, she claimed the duo did not follow the terms of their original agreement. She said she was promised a 10 percent cut of Something About Her, which opened that same year, in her role as COO/Director of Culinary. Ariana Madix, Katie Maloney Charles Sykes/Bravo via Getty Images Per the alleged agreement, the trio were to “jointly engage in the business of developing, creating, owning, operating, promoting … and otherwise profiting and benefiting from … a restaurant, fashion, merchandise, and lifestyle, brand, business, and property … to be known as Something About Her.” In her lawsuit, the chef said she spent a substantial amount of time and effort on Something About Her, including obtaining trademarks for the business. Davidi claimed she was to be paid $7,500 a month in salary that would increase up to $10,000 over time. She claimed Madix and Maloney, 38, broke the deal by refusing to pay her the proper cut. Ariana Madix and Katie Maloney Won't Have 'Pump Rules' Nods at Sandwich Shop The lawsuit asked the court to force Madix and Maloney to follow the terms of the original deal. In response, the Bravo stars denied all allegations of wrongdoing. They asked the court to dismiss the complaint completely. Katie Maloney and Ariana Madix Amy Sussman/Getty Images Madix joined Vanderpump Rules in season 2, and Maloney appeared during the show’s entire run. The journey to opening Something About Her was documented on the show, with fans lining up for the opening in May 2024. Madix took to social media to thank fans for watching her on Vanderpump Rules over the years. Vanderpump Rules' Ariana and Katie’s Best BFF Moments Through the Years “Thank you especially to the fans,” she wrote via Instagram at the time. “You’ve been the constant over the last decade, your love and support is what I’ll miss the most about it ending. You made this show what it is.” For her part, Madix has been incredibly busy despite not shooting Vanderpump Rules. She is the host of Peacock’s Love Island USA, which she joined in 2024. Inside Ariana, Stassi and More Bravo Stars’ Reunion at Something About Her In July, Madix confirmed she would be coming back for another season on social media. “I’m not leaving,” she said. “I’ll see you guys really soon.” Madix hosted seasons 6 and 7 of Love Island USA, along with the second season of Love Island Games.

                                          Shailene Woodley, Olivia Rodrigo and more stars were American Girls long before they became Hollywood A-listers. The beloved toy brand — which was originally owned by Pleasant Company before Mattel bought the rights to the property in 1998 — was known for its range of history-inspired dolls that were set in various decades in the United States. Victorian preteen Samantha Parkington was the first character to get the movie treatment with The Carrie Diaries’ AnnaSophia Robb portraying the titular role in the 2004 holiday flick. Woodley, for her part, was the next starlet to lead an American Girl film the following year, playing Pioneer-era Felicity Merriman in Felicity: An American Girl Adventure. The American Girl movies — all direct-to-DVD productions or web series — each highlight a different doll’s story. Rodrigo, for her part, landed her first major acting role as “Girl of the Year” Grace Thomas in An American Girl: Grace Stirs Up Success. Black-ish alum Marsai Martin later brought doll Melody Ellison to life in her own American Girl movie, which was set against the civil rights movement in Alabama in the 1960s. “Before I shot the movie, I was not aware of some of the things that my grandparents had to go through just because of the color of their skin,” Martin, then 12, told CelebSecrets.com in October 2016, referring to the racial inequality of the era. “Hopefully this movie will give kids, parents and grandparents an opportunity to talk about the past, so we don’t repeat those mistakes in the future.” Scroll below to check in with the American Girl child stars — and see where they are now:

                                          NBA Legend Paul Pierce Breaks Silence on DUI Suspicion: 'I'm Old and Tired'

                                          Former NBA star Paul Pierce was arrested late Tuesday, October 7, on suspicion of misdemeanor DUI after police allegedly found him asleep behind the wheel on a Los Angeles freeway.

                                          Former NBA star Paul Pierce was arrested late Tuesday, October 7, on suspicion of misdemeanor DUI after police allegedly found him asleep behind the wheel on a Los Angeles freeway. According to the California Highway Patrol, officers responded around 10:40 p.m. to a multi-vehicle crash on northbound U.S. Highway 101 near Universal City. When lanes reopened, officers noticed a Range Rover stopped south of the collision scene. “When officers approached, they found the driver, later identified as Paul Pierce, asleep at the wheel,” the CHP said in a statement. “Officers noted signs of alcohol impairment and conducted a DUI investigation.” Authorities said Pierce appeared to show signs of alcohol impairment. He was detained and taken to a nearby CHP station, where he underwent a field sobriety test. Pierce was booked on suspicion of misdemeanor DUI and later released, pending review by the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office. Former NBA Star Gilbert Arenas Breaks Silence After Gambling Arrest The CHP said the former basketball star was “cooperative” with officers throughout the arrest process. On Friday, October 10, Pierce issued a statement via Threads, claiming the situation happened because he is “old and tired.” “Imagine being stuck in stand still traffic for 45 mins and falling asleep,” he wrote. “I’m old, I’m tired, and I fell asleep. I’m good y’all thanks for the love.” He posted a photo alongside the statement showing him stuck in traffic behind multiple cars. He did not address the alleged misdemeanor DUI charges. The Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office is expected to decide in the coming weeks whether to file formal DUI charges. Under California law, a first-time misdemeanor DUI conviction can result in fines, probation, mandatory education programs, and up to six months in jail. As of Thursday morning, no court date had been scheduled. Nicknamed “The Truth,” Pierce spent 19 seasons in the NBA, including 15 with the Boston Celtics, where he earned 10 All-Star selections and won the 2008 NBA Championship alongside Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen. That same year, he was named NBA Finals MVP after averaging 21.8 points per game in the series against the Los Angeles Lakers. Jay Cutler Sued By the Driver He Hit During 2024 DUI Pierce retired in 2017 after final stops with the Brooklyn Nets, Washington Wizards, and Los Angeles Clippers. He was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2021, cementing his status as one of the Celtics’ all-time greats. Following his playing career, Pierce transitioned into broadcasting as an analyst for ESPN’s NBA Countdown and The Jump. He was dismissed from the network in 2021 after streaming a profanity-filled Instagram Live video that showed him partying with friends. In recent years, he appeared periodically on Fox Sports and other basketball-focused digital platforms. Pierce’s arrest adds to a list of off-court controversies that have trailed him since his retirement. Earlier this year, he was sued by cryptocurrency investors who accused him of misleading endorsements related to EthereumMax, a token he promoted on social media in 2022. Pierce settled the charges with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for unlawfully promoting crypto assets on social media, agreeing to pay over $1.4 million in penalties. Despite those issues, Pierce has remained active within the basketball community, frequently attending Celtics events and mentoring younger players. The Hall of Famer has also hosted basketball clinics in Los Angeles and Boston.

                                          'Grey's' EP Teases How Ellen Pompeo, Scott Speedman Will Be on Season 22

                                          • Entertainment

                                          The season 22 premiere of Grey’s Anatomy hinted that Meredith Grey plans to stick around, but how much will the actress appear on screen? “We’ll have both of them as much as we can. I think it’s mainly about scheduling,” showrunner Meg Marinis told Deadline in an interview published after the Thursday, October 9, episode, […]

                                          The season 22 premiere of Grey’s Anatomy hinted that Meredith Grey plans to stick around, but how much will the actress appear on screen? “We’ll have both of them as much as we can. I think it’s mainly about scheduling,” showrunner Meg Marinis told Deadline in an interview published after the Thursday, October 9, episode, acknowledging that Scott Speedman recently booked the RJ Decker pilot. “It depends on where Scott’s show takes place and where he’s filming it. I think we’re lucky that it’s with the same studio, and so we’ll be able to collaborate more easily than with other places.” Ellen Pompeo has starred as Meredith Grey since the first season of the ABC medical drama premiered in 2005. Her character is now in a relationship with Speedman’s Nick Marsh, and they live in Boston with Meredith’s three children. Pompeo, 55, appeared solo in Thursday’s season premiere, working with resident Simone Griffith (Alexis Floyd) and the new class of interns (including Trevor Jackson and Jade Pettyjohn) in the aftermath of a devastating explosion. At the end of the episode, Meredith and mentor Richard Webber (James Pickens Jr.) surveyed the damage from the blast, hinting at potential plans to “rebuild” Grey Sloan Memorial. Which 'Grey's Anatomy' Stars Are — And Aren't — Returning for Season 22? “Meredith is not in every episode. We have her a lot in the beginning of the season, the character will be in Seattle for the beginning of the season,” Marinis told the outlet of Pompeo’s onscreen appearances. “But we will still pick up her research, that won’t go away, because that is a very important piece of her character in her life right now. So that will still come into play.” Pompeo had stepped back from her duties as a series regular in 2022 in order to tackle other projects without fully leaving the hallowed halls of GSM. Meredith has made frequent cameos in the seasons since and Pompeo, an executive producer on the show, also provides voiceover narration for each episode. Ellen Pompeo in the ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ season 22 premiere. Anne Marie Fox/Disney via Getty Images As Meredith moved from Seattle to Boston, she started a new research project with sister-in-law Amelia Shepherd (Caterina Scorsone) in an attempt to cure Alzheimer’s disease. In addition to her work, Meredith has also been in a happy relationship with trauma surgeon Nick. “We’re definitely still going to see [Nick] this season,” Marinis teased to the outlet on Thursday. “We see him pretty soon, early in the season.” According to Marinis, other former Grey’s stars will also make appearances in season 22 like Kelly McCreary, who played Maggie Pierce. McCreary, 44, left the show in 2023 and was briefly spotted in the trailer for next week’s episode. What Does Scott Speedman's New TV Role Mean for His 'Grey's Anatomy' Future? In the teaser footage, Maggie arrived from Chicago to help Meredith support Amelia after — spoiler alert! — colleague Monica Beltran (Natalie Morales) died in the explosion and Atticus Lincoln (Chris Carmack) suffered severe injuries. (Amelia and Link, who is married to Camilla Luddington’s Jo, share a son.) “Can you just give up on me?” Amelia asked her sisters, to which Meredith said, “That’s not what we do.” Marinis further told Deadline that Amelia and the rest of the GSM team will be grappling with Monica’s death for most of the upcoming season. Grey’s Anatomy airs on ABC Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET.

                                          No Doubt Announces Las Vegas Residency After Coachella 2024 Reunion

                                          • Entertainment

                                          No Doubt is reuniting once again — this time for a Las Vegas residency. Former bandmates Gwen Stefani, Tony Kanal, Tom Dumont and Adrian Young are set to headline a six-show No Doubt Live at Sphere residency in May 2026. The shows will be the group’s first extended run of performances in nearly 14 years. […]

                                          No Doubt is reuniting once again — this time for a Las Vegas residency. Former bandmates Gwen Stefani, Tony Kanal, Tom Dumont and Adrian Young are set to headline a six-show No Doubt Live at Sphere residency in May 2026. The shows will be the group’s first extended run of performances in nearly 14 years. “The opportunity to create a show at Sphere excites me in a new way,” Stefani, 56, said in a press release. “The venue is unique and modern and it opens up a whole new visual palette for us to be creative. Doing it with No Doubt feels like going back in time to relive our history, while also creating something new in a way we never could have imagined.” The rock band, fronted by Stefani, was formed in 1986. The group eventually went on hiatus in 2008 but reunited soon after. By 2013, the musicians disbanded for good. Bassist Kanal, 57, meanwhile, is equally excited to reunite with his bandmates on the Sphere stage. (The Sphere shows will take place on May 6, May 8, May 9, May 13, May 15 and May 16 of next year. Gwen Stefani ‘Literally’ Had to Explain What No Doubt Was to Her Son “I can’t wait to get on stage again,” Kanal said in a statement. “There is a beautiful energy that happens when we play together, an electricity I have felt through all of our years. To be able to leave it all on the table each night and take our fans on the insane journey that is Sphere is beyond our wildest dreams.” Stefani, Kanal and their fellow musicians last performed together during the Coachella Music and Arts Festival in April 2024. The band played several of their most iconic hits, even teaming up with special guest Olivia Rodrigo for a rendition of “Bathwater.” Gwen Stefani and Olivia Rodrigo perform at the Coachella Stage during the 2024 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival on April 13, 2024. John Shearer/Getty Images for No Doubt “The band and I wanted to do something cohesive and nostalgic that felt like something we’ve always done but [also] felt new,” Stefani exclusively told Us Weekly of picking her plaid outfit for the show. “I feel like wearing plaid has always been there and is signature for the band. I sent some references to the band, and we thought this would be a cool way to have something similar but with our individual styles at the same time.” Kanal, for his part, later exclusively told Us that it was electric taking the Coachella stage with his No Doubt crew. Tony Kanal: No Doubt's Coachella Reunion Felt 'Amazing' “It’s hard to put into words how incredible it was,” he said later that month. “It was just an amazing experience for all six of us. We haven’t played in almost nine years. We prepped really well for the show. We rehearsed a lot and put a lot of time into the production. So, we were ready to go.” He continued, “When you play a festival, you don’t know what the response is going to be. Festival crowds can be tricky, but it was everything we hoped for. It was pretty spectacular.” Kanal also thought it was “incredible” being back in the rehearsal studio with Stefani, Dumont, 57, and Young, 56. “I felt like going into this, I was 16 again — when the band started — and it just felt like that same type of energy that we were bringing to it,” Kanal concluded. Tickets to No Doubt’s residency go on sale Friday, October 17, at 10 a.m. PT after an artist presale earlier that week.

                                          3 Underrated HBO Max Movies I Can’t Wait to Watch This Weekend (Oct. 10-12)

                                          • Entertainment

                                          It’s impossible not to watch a horror movie in October, and HBO Max doesn’t make it easy.

                                          It’s impossible not to watch a horror movie in October, and HBO Max doesn’t make it easy. The streamer has a great lineup of scary films this month, led by the debut of the indie hit, Bring Her Back. But it’s not all about blood and gore on HBO Max. In addition to Bring Her Back, Watch With Us has selected two other underrated movies for you to watch this weekend: the erotic drama Babygirl with Nicole Kidman and the camp classic Showgirls. These three movies are wildly different, but each delivers a satisfying experience you won’t soon forget. ‘Bring Her Back’ (2025) After their father dies, Andy (Billy Barratt) and his stepsister Laura (Sora Wong) are sent to live with the eccentric Laura (Sally Hawkins), who also fosters a mute boy named Oliver (Jonah Wren Phillips). Andy doesn’t trust Laura, who seems too good to be true. His suspicions are raised when Oliver seems to warn him to leave his new home right away. But can Andy trust Oliver, who seems to have a good reason to want Laura all for himself? Or is Laura truly a wicked foster mother up to no good? 9 New Movies to Watch This Weekend on Netflix, Prime Video and More (Oct. 10-12) Directed by Danny and Michael Philippou, Bring Her Back is a moody horror movie with just the right balance of realism and fantasy. The acting, particularly by Hawkins, is terrific, and there’s a genuine sense of menace that hooks you in from the beginning. Bring Her Back takes some unexpected turns in its third act, but the climax is surprisingly moving in a macabre kind of way. Bring Her Back is streaming on HBO Max. ‘Babygirl’ (2024) Nicole Kidman stars as Romy Mathis, a powerful CEO who has a solid marriage and two devoted teenage daughters. But Romy has one problem she can’t seem to fix — her sex life stinks! The solution appears when Sam (Harris Dickinson), a young intern at her company, begins to seduce her. They soon engage in a dominant/submissive relationship, which seems to please them both. But how long can it last without anyone from work — or Romy’s family — noticing? Babygirl is a thought-provoking drama that gives Kidman one of her best roles ever. As Romy, she explores all aspects of a complex personality — a woman who wants to be in control in most areas of her life, and wants to relinquish that control in the bedroom. What’s so illuminating about Babygirl is that it doesn’t shame any of its characters for how they feel about themselves or each other. It’s a liberating movie about a truly liberated woman, and it makes no apologies about the difficult subject matter it portrays so well on screen. Babygirl is streaming on HBO Max. ‘Showgirls’ (1995) You’ve probably heard that Taylor Swift just released her new album, The Life of a Showgirl, which dominated Spotify playlists and movie theaters worldwide last weekend. So what better way to celebrate than by watching a movie that made the word “showgirl” well-known in every household in 1995? The NC-17-rated Showgirls may not have obvious similarities to Taylor’s PG-13 album, but it’s not as different as you might think. Saved by the Bell alum Elizabeth Berkley stars as Nomi Malone, who wants to achieve her American dream — to become a Las Vegas showgirl. To do that, however, she’ll have to work her way from sleazy strip clubs, which she does with the help of good friend Molly (Gina Ravera). Nomi finally snags a part in a showgirl revue, but she instantly locks horns with the show’s lead star, Cristal (Gina Gershon). Nomi wants to be the best, and the only one in her way is Cristal. Like Taylor Swift's 'The Life of a Showgirl'? Then Watch These 3 Movies Now Campy and fun as hell, Showgirls has a notorious reputation for being dirty and bad. It’s neither; while there’s plenty of flesh on display, it’s not really titillating or erotic. Nomi’s naked ambition is what’s most revealing, and what drives the surprisingly tight narrative. Yes, the screenplay contains some groan-inducing one-liners, but the overall experience of watching Showgirls is truly unique. Showgirls is streaming on HBO Max.

                                          How Travis Barker Became the Hero of Yellowcard’s 11th Album ‘Better Days’

                                          • Entertainment

                                          Yellowcard took “a lot of steps” before finding their way to Travis Barker’s studio for their 11th studio album, Better Days. “It’s really special,”band member Sean Mackin told Us Weekly exclusively ahead of the album’s Friday, October 10 release. “There are so many people that believed in us and asked us to trust them. It […]

                                          Yellowcard took “a lot of steps” before finding their way to Travis Barker’s studio for their 11th studio album, Better Days. “It’s really special,”band member Sean Mackin told Us Weekly exclusively ahead of the album’s Friday, October 10 release. “There are so many people that believed in us and asked us to trust them. It led to these Better Days songs, and probably the best chapter of Yellowcard.” The record is a major step for the Florida-based band, who released (what was supposed to be) their final album back in 2016. The four-piece group — comprised with Mackin along with William Ryan Key, Josh Portman and Ryan Mendez — surprised fans with a reunion in 2022 ahead of Ocean Avenue’s 20th anniversary. Mackin, 46, told Us it was a “wonderful” step to get Yellowcard back together again before recording Better Days. “We were so lucky to find Travis Barker, because it was totally just the Rock Gods leading us that way. It was totally organic,” Key, 45, told Us, sharing that one of their cowriters mentioned to Barker, 49, that Yellowcard was writing some new music. Barker was quick to express interest in working with the band. Joe Brady “He just had a way of dissolving, diffusing, clearing the room of that sense of pressure, sense of tension, of uncertainty,” Key continued. “You just get in there and jam. It’s been a long time since we’ve made a record like that, where we sit down and write a whole song, we don’t demo it, we don’t live with it, we don’t overthink it. We just sit in there [with] whatever the energy is that day, whatever the vibe is that steers the direction of the music we’re making.” Key said it was “awesome” being in a creative space like that because it alleviated any sense of pressure for a comeback. “We were so relaxed and we just enjoyed it so much,” Key continued. “It’s been a long time since we’ve made a record in that way. You can hear it. I think it just sounds like the most core source material Yellowcard is to people, and we just found it again — with a little help from our friends.” Fall Music Preview 2025: 18 Picks From Taylor Swift to Doja Cat and More Barker also facilitated both collaborations on the record — “Love Letters Lost” featuring Matt Skiba from Alkaline Trio and “You Broke Me Too” featuring Avril Lavigne. When Key noted that “You Broke Me Too” sounded like “an early 2000s Avril Lavigne monster ballad,” Barker said they should get her on the song. “[He] sends a text to me that says, ‘Merry Christmas,’ and it’s a board-bounce of the song with Avril singing on it,” Key recalled. Mackin added, “You just don’t think that that concept or that moment would come to life, and you look at each other in disbelief.” Gilbert Flores/Variety via Getty Images Both Mackin and Key are huge Alkaline Trio fans, so getting Skiba on Better Days was also a huge win. Barker FaceTimed Key with Skiba earlier this year and “Love Letters Lost” was born. “He was just so gracious and so kind in the way he was talking about the song, and how excited he was to be a part of it,” Key said of Skiba. “It was a really unbelievable thing to process, listening to our music with Matt Skiba singing and Travis Parker playing drums. It’s a lot to get your head around.” Mackin added, “Big full circle, dreams do come true kind of a thing.” Better Days is out now.

                                          1st Look and Release Date Revealed for Upcoming Melania Trump Doc

                                          Melania Trump‘s Amazon MGM Studios documentary is on its way to theaters. Amazon MGM Studios revealed that the film, simply titled Melania, will be released exclusively in theaters in the U.S. and select territories overseas on January 30, 2026. It’s unknown when the film will hit Prime Video, where it is set to exclusively stream. Produced with the first lady’s participation, Melania will later be accompanied by a three-part docuseries, which will follow Trump, 55, on her travels between Trump Tower in New York City, Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach and the White House in Washington, D.C. (President Donald Trump officially returned to office in January after winning the 2024 election.) Variety reported on Thursday, October 9, that Amazon allegedly paid $40 million for the rights to the doc. Donald and Melania Trump's Relationship Timeline: Mar-a-Lago Wedding, More “Melania offers unprecedented access to the 20 days leading up to the 2025 Presidential Inauguration — through the eyes of the First Lady-elect herself,” an official logline for the documentary reads. “Step inside Melania Trump’s world as she orchestrates inauguration plans, navigates the complexities of the White House transition, and reenters public life with her family.” The synopsis continues: “With exclusive footage capturing critical meetings, private conversations, and never-before-seen environments, Melania showcases Mrs. Trump’s return to one of the world’s most powerful roles.” Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images Amazon MGM Studios also released a still from the doc, which showed Melania looking out of the window while in an SUV. Her husband’s participation in the doc is unclear, but Melania has stood by his side through many controversies in recent years, from his 2016 presidential campaign and victory to further investigations into his conduct after he left the White House in 2021. Melania has previously opened up about how the couple don’t always see eye to eye. “I don’t always agree [with] what he thinks, and I tell him that. I give him my honest opinion and honest advice,” she said in 2018 while talking to reporters in Egypt during a solo trip to Africa. Donald Trump's Family Guide: His Kids, Grandkids, Wives and More At the time, Melania emphasized that she had her “own voice and my own opinions and it’s very important for me that I express what I feel.” Melania is the first film from director Brett Ratner since he was accused of sexual misconduct and harassment in 2017. Ratner has largely remained out of the spotlight since multiple individuals — including Olivia Munn and Elliot Page — came forward with allegations of sexual assault and harassment, which they claimed occured eight years earlier. Ratner “categorically” denied the accusations. Ratner’s attorney Martin Singer addressed the specific allegations in a statement at the time, alleging, “No woman has ever made a claim against him for sexual misconduct or sexual harassment. Furthermore, no woman has ever requested or received any financial settlement from my client.”
