It looks like Pamela Anderson hasn't really been rocking with her ex-husband Tommy Lee.
The Baywatch alum shared that she's currently not on the best of terms with the Mötley Crue drummer, with...Zac Efron has enjoyed many adventures with his family over the years — and luckily he documented the special bonding moments.
Efron — who is an older brother to Dylan, Olivia and Henry — has recalled how his siblings and parents supported him throughout his career.
“My family’s my rock. I know that they’re not going anywhere. More and more I rely on my little brother to keep me grounded,” he shared during a 2013 interview. “I know my family’s always going to be there, and then there’s also some times when life changes, they can’t always be there for you in the way that you need, so I rely on my friends.”
Years later, Efron revealed the important life lessons that he learned from his family.
“My parents love me in very different ways. But they checked every box. My dad always taught me to be driven,” he told Elle in 2016. “I was always the shortest kid at school. Always the worst kid on the team. I’d come home after practice and my dad would build a basketball hoop. Then we’d go out and shoot 100 free throws. Pretty soon every time I got fouled I would make my free throws.”
While he loves his own family — and is a great older brother — Efron admitted he’s not quite ready to have children of his own.
“I have a healthy respect for parents, very grateful for them all,” he said during a May 2022 appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. “I love you so much, Mom.”

Stephen Baldwin wasn’t on Special Forces: The World’s Toughest Test for the right reasons — at least if you ask soldiers and stars Billy Billingham and Rudy Reyes.
“I think he’s a classic example of, ‘Oh, my God, this is real.’ He was not expecting that. He liked when he was doing something that looked James Bond–ish,” Billingham said in a joint interview with Reyes at Us Weekly’s NYC studio on Thursday, January 9.
“[Or] heroic,” Reyes added.
While Baldwin, 58, was the first to exit during the Wednesday, January 8, premiere, he did find brief success on the Fox show while completing the first task.
“Diving onto a helicopter, yeah, he did well on it. Great, well done. But when it comes to the rest of it, carrying the [military backpack] and running, being wet, he did not wanna know [anything about it],” Billingham told Us. “When he got uncomfortable, he was looking for excuses. We’ve heard a million excuses. We hear it all the time. He was looking for an easy way out where he didn’t have to embarrass himself by saying, ‘This is too hard.’ And the truth is, it was too hard. He’s 50-something years old, but I mean, I’m older than him.”
Stephen Baldwin Exits 'Special Forces' Early After Bizarre Doctor Showdown
Baldwin was part of the Wales production for less than 24 hours when he started to complain about a potential injury to the show doctor. When the doctor offered to examine him, however, Hailey Bieber’s dad had a bizarre breakdown about a future role that he could not get injured for.
“What’s awesome about this program, Special Forces, is it really is a window into military life,” Reyes told Us. “When you watch military movies, it’s combat, it’s badass, it’s heroic. Most of military life is disciplined or hurrying up as fast as possible to make a timeline. It’s cleaning, it’s taking orders and it’s going on long hikes and walks. It’s uncomfortable. It’s not glamorous. Our course is the same way. Of course, we do some really badass helicopter work, ocean work, things from heights and cliff assaults, things of that nature. And that’s the more exotic stuff. But the day-to-day is showing up where you’re supposed to show up, listening to what needs to get done and then executing it.”
Billingham added that some cast members, like Baldwin, are not “used to being called out.”

“I don’t think he likes being called out. At the end of the day, what we say is what we see,” he explained. “He’s getting shouted at for a reason. He’s getting pushed for a reason. And he didn’t like it. He’s used to stopping when he wants, doing what he wants. That didn’t happen. And that reality kicked in quickly with him. And not only was he fighting the elements and what we were pulling through, he’s finding his own mind of how he’s portraying himself and how he’s gonna work his way out of this. We see it a million times, you can tell straight away. And it’s generally the men that do it. Women just go [with the] mindset, ‘We’re getting on with this.’”
Billingham went on to note that Baldwin is a “smart guy” but didn’t want to admit he was in too deep.

“He must have done his research. Apparently he’s done quite a bit [of military training] before [for roles]. Must have spoken to people who’ve been on the show. So he knew what he was coming into, but the reality of thinking he knew and then turning up, that’s what caught him,” he said. “And he was like, ‘Oh, how do I work my way out of this?’”
Baldwin officially exited after a bizarre confrontation with the show doctor, in which he got visibly angry about not wanting to risk injury for an upcoming role.
“I think after that conversation with the doctor, the doctor had PTSD,” Billingham concluded with a laugh.
Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test airs on Fox Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET.

Getting kids into the habit of properly brushing their teeth can be tough, but the Willo AutoFlo+ Fully Automated Kids Toothbrush Starter Kit is one solution you might not have tried yet. Created by a team of oral health experts, it’s the world’s first children’s toothbrush that uses fully automatic brushing, doing the hard work for your little ones without the extra stress. This futuristic system was specifically made to help kids — but wouldn’t blame you if you felt tempted to snag one for yourself, too.
“For many families, toothbrushing is an all-too-familiar daily struggle,” Willo explains. “Parents find themselves locked in a routine that requires constant reminders, supervision and time spent ensuring their children maintain good oral hygiene.”
This high-tech toothbrush, which looks similar to a mouth guard surrounding the teeth, is meant to make the process a bit easier. With 34,000 optimally positioned bristles and an OptiClean brush head that gently cleans around each tooth, the kit is clinically proven to remove “seven times more plaque in the hard-to-reach areas than a manual toothbrush.” Just one push of an easy-to-use button and the AutoFlo+ automatically dispenses the perfect amount of toothpaste. There’s also a continuous suction to remove any liquid accumulated during the process and the toothbrush head comes in three different sizes, ensuring it will fit your little one’s mouth.
Parents who have purchased this toothbrush continue to wonder how they ever lived without it.
“I know the price is high, but so are other electric toothbrush brands,” one five-star reviewer wrote. “We spent my son’s whole life fighting to brush teeth. He has no issue with using this. No gag reflex and no sensory issue, it’s been well worth it for our family.”
“As a mom of an autistic boy, this is a lifesaver,” another noted. “I recently switched to Willo, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. It’s truly a game-changer in oral hygiene! First, it ensures even coverage across all my kid’s teeth and gums. I love how effective it is at cleaning.”
Parents of more than one child say that while morning and nighttime routines used to be “a total hassle,” the Willo set changed that.
“I’d constantly be nagging them to brush, and even then, I had to double-check if they were actually brushing or just fooling around in the bathroom,” one person admitted. “It took up so much time! But ever since we got the Willo toothbrush, everything’s changed. The kids actually love brushing now, and I don’t have to hover or worry if they’re doing it right. My youngest even insists on brushing multiple times a day! This toothbrush is a game-changer for any parent!”
If your kiddos hate brushing their teeth, add the Willo AutoFlo+ Fully Automated Kids Toothbrush to cart now. The switch allows them to have fun while practicing good oral hygiene, and you can breathe a sigh of relief knowing they’re getting a deep clean.

Zach Bryan is coming to his friends’ defense after claiming they’ve been attacked online following his split from Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia.
“All of you f—in weird couch warriors attacking and belittling my friends on the internet because you’re assuming I have a girlfriend are weird as hell and should be studied for science,” Bryan, 28, wrote via a lengthy Instagram Story rant on Thursday, January 9. “Everyone wonders why I quit touring and don’t want to be attached to music anymore, meanwhile you’re calling my friends ugly and harassing them?”
Bryan added that he wasn’t searching for “sympathy” but wanted to condemn the “low and messed up” actions of going after his pals.
“Apparently I’ve [had] four different girlfriends in like two weeks, meanwhile my friends and me are just laughing and hanging out like we always have,” he wrote before clarifying his current relationship status. “I don’t have a girlfriend and don’t plan on having a girlfriend, however I do have normal friends that I love very much and would go to the ends of the earth for.”
Zach Bryan and Brianna Chickenfry’s Breakup: What Went Wrong?
Bryan continued his rant by encouraging others to “go give your attention and time to the literal city burning down,” seemingly referring to the ongoing Los Angeles fires.
“Stop being so sad and fickle and childish through screens. Last thing I’ll ever say on this. Insane I even have to,” he wrote. “You do not know me. You never will know me. Stop acting like you do.”
The singer added that instead of attacking people in his inner circle, his critics should speak about him instead because he can handle it.
“I am allowed to have love, laughter and good people in my life. No matter how bad of a person you think I am, go ahead and come for me. I can take all the hatred because I’m not a child,” he wrote in a subsequent Instagram Story. “But do not come for my friends who do nothing but love and care for me. Everyone wants you to have fun and make great music but you guys are making it really hard to do that with my friends getting insulted and death threats everyday.”
Bryan shared that he’s “worked really hard” for his success, but the constant chatter from social media makes him want to remain out of the spotlight.
“Whether you think I deserve it or not. Whether you think I suck or not. Stop being such sad and fat fingered internet sleuths to my friends,” he wrote. “We’re all humans and I’m so tired of people thinking social media is a way to have a moral high ground on people THEY’VE never met? Guess people aren’t humans any more since they can hide behind screens? Weird a–holes man ok I’m done.”
Bryan, in fact, was not done. He shared one more note stating that he didn’t want others to give him tips on how to “handle something or things they’ve never coped with” themselves.
“I lost my mother, I’ve been in war zones and I’ve battled this whole fame thing for five years. Respectfully, I don’t need your unsolicited advice, I am a grown man. I promise I can get through some little bullies on the internet,” he wrote. “I am so terrifyingly unphased by the fake s— people say about me online but coming for people I love and care for is my line and final straw.”
Brianna Chickenfry Says ‘Don’t Date Famous People’ in Pre-Recorded Podcast
Bryan ended his rant by stating he was “hopping off” of social media “for a bit.”
Bryan made headlines late last year following his dramatic breakup from LaPaglia, 25. In October 2024, Bryan shared that he and the Barstool Sports personality called it quits after dating for more than a year. LaPaglia claimed that she was “blindsided” by the musician’s public announcement.
LaPaglia took a break from social media following the breakup, and Bryan has been laying low. One month after the split, LaPaglia returned to her “BFFs” podcast, where she gave insight into her dynamic with Bryan and claimed she was “emotionally abused” by the musician. (Us Weekly reached out to Bryan’s team at the time and received no response.)
As the number of prominent female reporters continues to grow across the NFL, Prime Video’s Kaylee Hartung gushed about the supportive community they have created with one another.
“It’s so cool,” Hartung, 39, exclusively told Us Weekly ahead of Prime Video’s first-ever playoff game broadcast between the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday, January 11. “It’s the most special group of women I’ve ever gotten to consider myself part of. I feel so lucky.”
Hartung is joined on the sidelines for Prime Video’s NFL coverage by Taylor Rooks, with Charissa Thompson anchoring the network’s coverage during pregame, postgame and halftime.
“It’s so genuine among us,” Hartung explained. “Charissa, Taylor and I all have very different skill sets. We have very different personalities. I think we’re able to work together and support each other in a way that is so special. There’s no competition. We are each other’s biggest cheerleaders.”
ESPN's Holly Rowe Happily Learned More About Taylor Swift Via NFL Coverage
Across the networks, other female reporters in places of prominence include Fox Sports’ Erin Andrews and Pam Oliver and CBS’ Tracy Wolfson and Kay Adams, who anchored Netflix’s inaugural Christmas Day coverage.
“We all just really get along and like each other,” Hartung told Us. “Charissa and I were friends before we were ever on Thursday Night Football together. I had never met Taylor before the first time everyone got together. But it was instant for all of us.”
Hartung, who also works as a contributor on NBC’s Today show, counts Sunday Night Football sideline reporter Melissa Stark as another encouraging colleague. When the duo worked together during the NFL Divisional Round playoff game between the Detroit Lions and Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Detroit’s Ford Field in January 2024, Hartung had a full circle moment of gratitude.
“We were sitting in the shuttle [on the way to the stadium] and I teared up in the cheesiest, silliest, most completely raw, emotional way,” Hartung recalled. “15-year-old me never could have imagined this. Melissa has been so supportive of me and I just appreciate that I can call her a friend. We’ll compare notes if I’ve got a team before her or if she’s got one before me.”
Why Kelly Stafford and Her 4 Girls Might Be 'Moving' Out Before Playoffs
Hartung also shouted out NBC’s Maria Taylor and ESPN’s Laura Rutledge, with whom she helped launch the SEC Network in 2014.
“I feel so lucky that our friendships have all endured,” she said. “I hope that we set an example for women younger than us. It’s such a competitive environment and there are only so many opportunities. But there is enough to go around.”
Hartung added, “At the end of the day, one of the things we all have in common is that we are all nice, welcoming, good people who are excited for each other’s successes and excited to cheer each other on.”
Hartung will be on the sideline for Prime Video’s first-ever playoff game between the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers, which streams live on Saturday, January 11, at 7:30 pm ET.
From the critically acclaimed The Last Showgirl to Bridget Jones: About a Boy, 2025 is transforming January from an infamous movie dead zone into a time for appointment viewing.
Historically, the start of each year isn’t the most exciting time for new releases. Studios tend to save their smaller budget films — ones that, say, might not make it to awards season — for the colder months, when the holidays are over, people are tired and staying in sounds much more appealing than shivering in a dark theater.
This year, however, things have seemingly shifted. January 2025 is starting off strong with the release of the already critically acclaimed The Last Showgirl, a film that is being lauded as star Pamela Anderson’s comeback and the greatest role of her career. The story follows Anderson as Shelley, a glamorous showgirl who must plan for her future when her show abruptly closes after a 30-year run.
“I can relate to it on so many different levels. As a mother, as a person in this industry,” Anderson told Deadline in September 2024. “Most of my career has been about the external, and not the soul of what really happens behind the superficial qualities that people even hire you for, or know you for. And you’re always just like, there’s so much more to me than what people see and I don’t know if you’re ever gonna get the chance to show that, so that was really why I was so excited about this movie… I feel like a new baby in this industry in this film and I feel like it’s just the beginning.”
25 Pop Culture Events to Look Forward to in 2025
February, meanwhile, features the return of Bridget Jones with the highly-anticipated About a Boy just in time for Valentine’s Day.

Madison LeCroy has offered words of support for her Southern Charm costar Craig Conover in light of his recent breakup with Paige DeSorbo.
“I don’t need to give him any advice.I just told him, ‘You’re going to be a great husband [and] you’re going to be a great dad one day. You have so much to look forward to, like, just be lucky you didn’t already have those things and then go through a breakup,’” LeCroy, 34, said during a Thursday, January 9, Amazon Live broadcast. (LeCroy shares 10-year-old son, Hudson, with a past partner and is now married to Brett Randle.)
She added, “I’m here to hype him up when he’s down — and I’ll do that for anyone really. But, they’re still good and I think everything’s going to be fine. I think you guys are taking it a lot harder than they are. I don’t know.”
DeSorbo, 32, announced late last month that she and Conover, 35, called it quits after three years of dating.
Craig Conover 'Had Plans to Propose' Before Paige DeSorbo Breakup
“Craig and I have decided to no longer be together,” DeSorbo said on a December 2024 episode of her “Giggly Squad” podcast. “I love him, I think he loves me. I think we will remain friends. No one did anything. It wasn’t a bad thing.”
She continued, “I think we both were just being really mature and saying what we want and what we didn’t want, and I think that’s extremely powerful to be able to voice how you’re feeling in real-time and what you want for your future.”
Weeks later, Conover claimed that the breakup was “very unexpected.”
“I guess I gotta start living again, whatever that looks like. Whatever my new normal looks like — I have to start,” he said in a Tuesday, January 7, Instagram Story video. “‘Gratitude will get you through this, with time comes clarity’ – all of the advice, I’m trying to listen to. “But, yeah. [It happened] right before the holidays. I was very shocked. And it’s OK.”
Craig Conover Hinted at Marrying Paige DeSorbo 2 Months Before Breakup
Conover was also aware that “it takes two people to be in a relationship.”
“You can’t control other people, you can only control how you react to it,” he continued. “Remember to be kind to Paige and me and yourselves and all of that good stuff. … [It’s] a 3-year relationship, it’s your best friend who you talk to all day every day, and then they’re just gone. So, you know, one day I’ll be able to talk more on it.”
Conover and the Summer House star met while filming Winter House season 1 in 2021, making their public debut as a couple at Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula’s wedding that September. While appearing on each other’s shows, they navigated a long-distance relationship as Conover is based in Charleston and DeSorbo lives in Manhattan.
sza usmagazine isn’t afraid to have fun with her hair.
SZA, 35, took to Instagram on Wednesday, January 8, to show off her new bubblegum highlights. The singer, who previously sported dark brown coils, rocked hot pink money pieces that were cut to her chin, thanks to hairstylist Devante Turnbull. The rest of her coils were dyed a cherry cola shade.

If there’s one thing that we adore, it’s seeing our favorite celebs rocking their favorite pieces. While we don’t have insight into Katie Holmes‘ favorite handbag, we suspect the Manu Atelier Le Cambo 35 Tote Bag is high on her list. She’s been spotted at least five times rocking the $748 tote bag while strolling through New York City. That’s more than enough proof, right?
Katie Holmes Wears This Comfy Sneaker Style for Routine Coffee Runs — The Look for $23
We don’t know if it’s the Our Town star’s impact, but the luxurious accessory is sold out. If you’re looking for a style that delivers the same versatility, you’re in luck. We found a near spot-on lookalike on Amazon and it’s a fraction of the cost.

Are you on the hunt for an everyday bag? This luxurious-looking style fits the bill. Like Holmes’ bag, this work tote is made of butter-soft fabric and features a handle with a belted strap across. This wear-resistant bag is big enough to store an iPad, cellphone, wallet and other items.
It has convenient pocket organizers to help you keep track of all of your belongings. Plus, it comes in a brown shade that’s a few shades darker than Pantone’s 2025 color of the year mocha mousse.
Like Holmes, you’ll have so much fun styling this bag. You can pair it with jeans and sneakers on a casual day. If you’re heading into the office, you can dress it up with a sophisticated sweater, trousers and heels. You can even grab it when you’re heading to and from the gym.
“This purse is awesome, not too heavy,” one five-star reviewer wrote before raving that it’s a “good quality for the price and the color chocolate is beautiful.” Another customer raved that the tote is a “beautiful purse.” According to the shopper, it looks, “Exactly the same as [it does] in the picture.” The shopper also shared, “It was worth it.”
Oh, the places you can go with a versatile handbag. This tote bag looks just like a style Katie Holmes wore on multiple occasions. Whether you’re dressing up or rocking a casual fit, you can’t go wrong with this chic bag.

While season 3 of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test began with 16 contestants, only some have what it takes to make it to the end of the competition.
In the reality show, which features celebrities trying their hand at tasks the real United States Special Forces must complete to become part of the military, contestants move forward by passing a series of tests — or they turn in their armband to signal their voluntary departure from the series.
While attempting assignments in Wales, England, Stephen Baldwin became the first season 3 contestant to exit the competition. The dad of Hailey Bieber successfully jumped from a speeding boat to a speeding helicopter and climbed into the helicopter — but claimed he got injured in the process.
“I smashed my meniscus on the helicopter today and my back is in knots and I can’t turn my head past there,” Baldwin said while talking with the on-duty doctor.
After Baldwin explained that he “cannot get injured” ahead of a gig he had lined up after the show, the Special Forces operatives dismissed him from the series. “No. 5, you failed this course and you failed yourself. Go,” the staff said.
Scroll down to see where the stars of season 3 stand:
Baldwin withdrew from the competition out of fear of getting injured after claiming to have “smashed” his meniscus on the helicopter.
After Fedotowsky injured her hand, the doctor recommended she get an X-ray — leading her to withdraw from the competition in the second episode.
Richards took off her armband after claiming she hurt her back and wanted to sit out of a punishing Navy SEAL exercise known as surf immersion in the second episode.

Candy Spelling’s Malibu mansion was burned to the ground amid the ongoing wildfires sweeping the city.
“I’m in shock and processing this massive loss for our family,” Spelling, 79, told TMZ on Thursday, January 9. “I am beyond grateful for the memories. It was truly a wonderful gift to have.”
Candy further noted to the outlet that her late husband, Aaron Spelling, equally loved the $23 million house. (Candy and the famed TV producer, who died in 2006 at the age of 83, shared daughter Tori Spelling and son Randy Spelling.)
“I’m devastated. I have so many memories in this house,” Million Dollar Listing: Los Angeles star Josh Flagg, who is a friend of Candy’s, later told TMZ on Thursday. “The house is gone but the memories are not. This is a total shame. This entire fire is a shame. This did not need to happen.”

Neither Tori, 51, nor Randy, 46, have publicly addressed the loss of their family home but have both been outspoken about lending support to others in need during the wildfires.
“The fires in Los Angeles have been devastating,” Randy wrote via Instagram Story on Wednesday, January 8. “Lives lost, so many have lost their homes. I’m praying the fires can be put out soon and people can begin to heal from this.”
He added, “It’s going to be a long process. To all my L.A. friends and family, I love you all.”
Randy also shared various links of resources for individuals affected by the natural disaster. Tori, meanwhile, uploaded a GoFundMe link after her “dear friend” Peter Ferreiro’s house was torched.

“My dear friend @peterferriero lost everything,” Tori wrote via her Stories. “Pls help if you can.”
Ferriero, who hosts a Beverly Hills: 90210 recap podcast, had lost his home in the blaze.
“Please help us. Our home is destroyed. We have lost pretty much everything inside of it,” Ferriero wrote on Wednesday, sharing a GoFundMe link. “I don’t do this kind of thing. But literally we need all the help we can get right now. If I ever did a thing for you please remember it now.”
Former child star David Lascher replied, “I’m so sorry” and “Call me.”
Wildfires broke out in the Pacific Palisades on Tuesday, January 7, rapidly devastating thousands of buildings. Many celebrities who live in the area have already lost their homes and personal effects. Others, meanwhile, evacuated out of the city limits to safety.
