Fans will likely never forget Bill Skarsgård’s full frontal moment as the decrepit Count Orlok in Nosferatu – but the creative team behind the scenes remain just as haunted.
Heavy prosthetics are nothing new to Skarsgård, 34, as he’s transformed into various levels of haunting creatures in films like It and The Crow. Adding a prosthetic penis onto his body for his role as Count Orlok in Nosferatu, however, was a new experience — one that created a memorable moment not only for Skarsgård’s character on screen but for costar Nicholas Hoult’s Thomas Hutter and the film’s creative team.
“With [Nick’s character] Thomas, they had a scene where Orlok was sucking his blood and the penis kept rubbing on his leg and he didn’t know how to react to him,” Traci Loader, Nosferatu’s lead makeup designer, told Us Weekly in an exclusive interview.
“I don’t think you’ll forget that moment,” the film’s hair department head, Suzanne Stokes-Munton, added, to which Loader replied, “No, that will live on forever!”
Audiences get their own view of the prosthetic appendage in the third act when Thomas attempts to flee Orlok’s castle after realizing he’s being fed on by the ancient vampire. As he finds his way to the cellar, he attempts to stake a sleeping Orlok but wakes him instead. As Thomas runs for his life, Orlok rises out of his sarcophagus, exposing himself free of clothing.
As for why the prosthetic penis was necessary to filming in the first place, head of prosthetic makeup effects designer David White — who created the prop — gave Us some insight into the scene.
“[Bill] knew it was coming, and as soon as I saw that shot in the frame, I thought, ‘Oh no, here come the questions about that.’ Because up until then nobody had said a word,” White said. “It was a creation above and beyond Bill’s own self … We had to find a way of making the whole body work for the shot where he rises from his sarcophagus. So, there was no way around it.”
Hoult himself has been candid about the awkward moment on set, telling Elle in a recent interview that after voicing that he could feel the prop pushing up against his leg, director Robert Eggers sent him a surprise gift.

“As a wrap gift, Rob got it framed, and he sent it to my house,” Hoult told the outlet, noting that he ultimately had to take the prosthetic to a frame shop after the present arrived damaged.
“When I went back to pick it up, I think [the shop owner] clocked, like, how weird it was that I was framing potentially this vampire penis,” Hoult explained. “And he was like, ‘Is this some kind of collector’s piece?’ and I was like, ‘Hm, you could say that.'”
While the faux genitalia may have caused some challenges for Hoult, wearing it was no problem for Skarsgård. White told Us the actor was the ultimate “professional.”
Skarsgård was also involved with the creative process, according to its team and had a say in helping craft Orlok’s mustache. The facial hair was initially supposed to be a lot longer and a different color than what the final product came out to be, thanks to Skarsgård’s input.
“There were a few different sizes of mustache to choose from,” White recalled. “I offered up a whole variety. At first it was a bit big, believe it or not, it was bigger than what it is now, and then it’s reduced and if you look closely, it’s actually thinned in the center area and that’s done on purpose so that you can see a little bit more of the teeth and everything beneath there.”
He continued: “I added a little bit of silver to the end, which I thought would be really lovely and give a little bit of extra character and suggest aging, but not sort of take him too far. And Bill was aware of those color changes. So he agreed and wanted that to be the case.”
White added that while on set, Skarsgård tended to remain in character and was “quiet and in the shadows as Orlok would be.” Seeing the actor in full garb, however, was much more comical behind the scenes than one would assume it would be.
“When he first went to set, he would be half dressed and then have joggers on the bottom,” Loader recalled with a laugh.

Kelly Stafford took an unfortunate trip to the hospital with her kids after traveling with her husband Matthew Stafford ahead of the Rams-Vikings playoff game.
“Last night was long,” Kelly, 35, wrote via Instagram Story on Saturday, January 11, alongside a photo of two of her young children asleep in a hospital bed. “Back in beds and sleeping, everyone except Hunter. Feels like she drank a Celsius.”
In another post, she shared a photo via Instagram Story of Matthew, 36, quarterback for the Los Angeles Rams, and their daughters. “Before that tho, they were all smiles getting to go with daddy on his work trip,” she wrote.
Last week, Kelly revealed she and two of her daughters had come down with a serious illness. “I can’t think straight,” Kelly said on the Tuesday, January 7, episode of her “Morning After” podcast. “I currently believe I have the flu. Two of my daughters have the flu.”
Kelly and Matthew share four daughters: twins Sawyer and Chandler, 7, Hunter, 6, and Tyler, 4. Kelly did not share why exactly the kids were taken to the hospital, or if they will be in attendance at the Rams vs. Vikings playoff game.

The family had traveled to watch Matthew practice ahead of the Rams’ playoff game against the Minnesota Vikings in Glendale, Arizona, scheduled for Monday, January 13. The Rams home playoff game was relocated from Los Angeles to Glendale due to the wildfires raging through southern California.
Kelly’s hospital trip came after she offered to rent charter buses for season ticket holders in Los Angeles to travel to Glendale for the game.
In a press conference held on Thursday, January 9, Matthew addressed the devastation caused by the wildfires and the impact the natural disaster has had on his community.
“It’s a tough thing to watch on the news, to be around, to see,” he told reporters. “Driving around seeing all that, it’s just really sad to see what’s going on. Obviously, a bunch of people [are] doing everything they possibly can to try and get things under control and get people back to normal as quickly as possible.”
Matthew continued, “Every time we suit up, we’re the Los Angeles Rams. We play for the people in this community. The people in this community support us. This week will be another example of that, obviously. Hopefully a great escape for people who have been going through a lot of tough times.”
The Rams-Vikings Wild Card playoff game will kick off from Glendale, Arizona’s State Farm Stadium on Monday, January 13 at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN.

Kylie Kelce offered some insight into her and husband Jason Kelce’s decision to stick with gender-neutral names for baby No. 4.
“Going on the 4th [child], it’s like a disaster [picking a name],” Kylie, 32, said during the Thursday, January 9, episode of her “Not Gonna Lie” podcast, while discussing potential names for her and Jason’s fourth child — another girl. “You’ve already used them all up, all bets are off.”
Kylie and Jason, 37 — who have been married since 2018 — announced in November 2024 that they were expecting their fourth daughter. The pair previously welcomed daughters Wyatt in 2019, Elliotte in 2021, and Bennett in 2023.
“We’re doing a little crossover action, I feel like we have to lean a little bit towards those sort of gender-neutral names for our fourth,” Kylie explained. “Because we have Wyatt, Elliotte, Bennett — so if we do a full commit to a girly name at this point, it would not sit well with the other three, I think? Eventually they’ll be like, ‘Why why did they get a cute girly name?’”
Kylie also gushed over her oldest daughter, Wyatt, who is excited to become a big sister for the third time.
“I will say that, my oldest [Wyatt], she’s 5 now — the way she’s getting excited for this next baby is very sweet to watch,” Kylie shared. “She’s very much in that phase of like, ‘I can get diapers, I can fill up my own water bottle, I can do these things independently,’ and so to see her get so excited about getting another baby and her having the opportunity to help is very exciting to watch.”
Kylie previously discussed potential names for the newest Kelce girl on her podcast, responding to queries from fans about whether or not she and Jason already had a name picked out.
“First of all, love the confidence, but even if I did have a name picked out, I’d probably keep that one in the family,” she said in a December 2024 episode. “What I will say: We don’t have a name picked out, so you’re not missing out on anything. And I have seen a number of the suggestions come through in the comments section so I appreciate that.”
As for Jason, the retired NFL star is more than happy to continue his reign as the ultimate girl dad, telling E! News last year, “I got it pretty easy, I’m not gonna lie.”
He continued, “There’s another girl, so the clothes are all going to be hand-me-downs or already bought. The crib is already situated. So, we’re pretty set. Kylie is definitely preparing more than I am because she’s actually growing a human being.”
One reporter is crediting actress Olivia Munn for saving her life.
Inside Edition’s Alison Hall shared an emotional post via Instagram on Wednesday, January 8, announcing that she has recently been diagnosed with breast cancer and is preparing to undergo a mastectomy.
“Let me tell you the story of how Olivia Munn and the show I work for, Inside Edition, played a role in saving my life,” Hall, 33, wrote in the post’s moving caption. “Last spring, after @oliviamunn shared her story about her breast cancer journey, the producers at @insideedition assigned me to the story and sent me to a breast cancer doctor here in NYC to undergo testing, on-camera. Inspired by Olivia, I took the Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Test.”
According to Hall, her risk was “revealed to be high,” so the “wonderful doctors” at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City “encouraged me to start a schedule of yearly mammograms and MRIs.”
“I was prepared to do this for a long time and had no idea just how quickly this story would change my life,” she continued. “In October, I had my first breast MRI and a week later just before I turned 33, I became one of millions of women to hear the words ‘you have breast cancer.’”
Hall explained that physicians also told her that her cancer is a “stage zero,” meaning it “has not spread.”
“I have an early form of malignancy called DCIS,” she added. According to Johns Hopkins, DCIS – or ductal carcinoma in situ — is a ‘non-invasive form of breast cancer that develops in the milk ducts of the breast.”
“As you can imagine, I have been on a rollercoaster ride of fear, anxiety, dread AND gratitude,” she continued in the Wednesday post. “My husband reminds me that this is ‘the best, bad news’ we could have gotten. For many reasons including my family history of breast cancer and my own history of breast abnormalities, I’ve decided to not only tackle the current cancer head-on but dramatically reduce my risk of future breast cancer. I’ve chosen to undergo a double mastectomy with reconstruction, next week.”
Munn, 44, revealed she was diagnosed with breast cancer in March 2024.
“Surprisingly, I’ve only cried twice,” Munn wrote in a lengthy Instagram post detailing her diagnosis and subsequent treatment, which also included a double mastectomy. “I guess I haven’t felt like there was time to cry. My focus narrowed and I tabled any emotions that I felt would interfere with my ability to stay clearheaded,” she wrote at the time.
In her Wednesday Instagram post, Hall said that she considers “this experience a gift,” adding that her diagnosis allows her to “do this for my future self, for my future children.”
“I have some of the best family, friends, dog, therapist, doctors and colleagues in the world who have shown up for me and provided more love than I could imagine,” she added. “I believe in the power of storytelling. Olivia Munn sharing her story saved lives. It certainly had a part in saving mine. I’m sharing my story with the same hope.”
“I think, today, the biggest financial mistake people make is that they spend more than they can make, and that’s it,” Rancic, 53, exclusively told Us while discussing his new “Dollar Bill” podcast. “I always go back to what my father told me. ‘It’s not how much money you make, it’s how much money you save.’ So, you have to be a disciplined saver, even if it’s $10, $20, $50 a week — whatever it is, get in that habit. Don’t ever not do it, and you’ll be shocked at what happens in 20 or 30 years from now.”
Rancic is best known as the original winner of The Apprentice. After his reality television success in 2004, Rancic went on to launch a string of successful businesses, including the RPM restaurant chain with his wife, Giuliana Rancic. Bill’s latest venture is his “Dollar Bill” podcast, which further delves into the world of finance.
In terms of his savings tips, he gave Us further clarification on how to keep assets safe and secure.
“The money you save is really going to be up to you and [you should] find a good financial advisor,” Bill told Us. “[It should be] someone who can give you guidance on how you should invest it, but it definitely should be going to work for you.”
Bill also explained why individuals should “never sell anything unless [they] have to.”
“It depends on what it is,” he noted. “If it’s a depreciating asset, you should sell it. If it’s something like real estate, investment property [or] something that God isn’t making any more of, you want to keep it and pass it down from generation to generation, if you can.”

In fact, Bill believes that financial health is “just as important” as a person’s physical health, going on to add that he believes the two are actually linked.
“When you’re financially stressed, it causes stress on your body and if you look at a number one cause for divorce, it’s money,” he told Us. “Money, in many cases, is very troublesome for people and it causes them a lot of pain and suffering. So, you have to have good financial health in order to have a healthy life, a healthy marriage [or] a healthy family.”
“One is [to] embrace a term called ‘practical execution,’ which essentially means stop talking, start doing — actions speak louder than words,” Bill said. “Secondly, you have to be agile. You have to adapt, adjust, react, and if you’re not agile, you become extinct. And thirdly, it’s about risk. It’s about understanding risk, respecting risk, and converting risk into success.”

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Camille Grammer is recalling the 2018 Woolsey Fire that destroyed her house as the Pacific Palisades fire continues to rage through the greater Los Angeles area.
Grammar, 56, spoke to People on Saturday, January 11, about the 2018 fire that burned more than 96,000 acres and destroyed 1,643 structures, including the reality star’s Malibu home — one of many homes destroyed at the time due to a lack of water access. A similar situation is currently developing as, according to the LA Times, fire hydrants across the Pacific Palisades are running dry.
“That’s what happened to my house, and during the Woolsey fire, when the firefighters got to the house, it went to the hydrant and there wasn’t enough water pressure. So then they couldn’t save the house,” Grammer told People, recalling her conversation with the fire chief at the time. “He said, ‘I’m sorry. There’s nothing we can do. We just don’t have water pressure.’ And they were very frustrated, and apologized, and they did the best they could.”
Grammer further shared that, when fire fighters discovered that there wouldn’t be enough water to extinguish the flames, the first responders began pulling her belongings out of the home in an effort to save as much as possible.
“I didn’t ask for that,” she said. “They just did it themselves, which was really nice, because there’s just, there was just no water pressure to save the house.”
She continued, “I haven’t really been able to sleep well, I keep thinking of my friends that have lost homes. My heart is broken over the loss of communities and lives. It’s awful. But again, you never know if the winds kick up again and what direction they turn. It’s, you know, a wait-and-see game.”
Janisse Quiñones, chief executive and chief engineer of the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, told the LA Times that all water storage tanks in the Pacific Palisades had dried up due to “tremendous demand” in the area.
“We pushed the system to the extreme,” he told the outlet on Wednesday, January 8. “Four times the normal demand was seen for 15 hours straight, which lowered our water pressure.”
As for Grammer, the RHOBH alum further praised the city’s “amazing” firefighters as they continued to fight the blazes. “They put their lives on the line all the time to save people and communities and homes, and they’re trying their best under these awful conditions,” she told People on Saturday.
“It’s really important in times like these, when the neighbors come together and communities come together to help each other out,” she added.
Since she has experience losing everything to a fire, Grammer also shared some crucial advice to people who are now going through the same thing.
“For me, because I’ve gone through it, life is more important than your home,” she said. “If you’re safe, it’s your life, it’s your health, it’s being safe and sound with your family and your loved ones. Because you can replace material objects, you can rebuild a home or find a new place to live, but a life — you can’t replace a life.”
“If you’ve lost your home in the Los Angeles fires and you need to find a place to rent until your home is rebuilt, all Oppenheim Group agents will represent you for free or credit you back any commission we receive in the transaction,” the Selling Sunset star, 47, wrote in a Thursday, January 9, Instagram post. “Please reach out to us at [email protected].”
Jason co-owns his agency with twin brother Brett Oppenheim, further explaining his new pro bono mission in an uploaded video.
“I woke up this morning to a lot of friends and clients reaching out because they lost their homes over the last couple of days and they need help with places to live now,” Jason said. “Their families are displaced and as real estate agents, we obviously have an obligation to help them find a place — even when it’s going to be difficult with thousands of people [are] looking for places and [there are] not nearly as many houses available.”
“This is our time to be able to give back,” the Netflix personality stated. “Everyone stay safe, thanks.”
Several of Jason’s employees reiterated their willingness to help in the comments section, including Alexandra Jarvis, Davina Potratz, Mary Fitzgerald Bonnet, Polly Brindle and Chrishell Stause.
“We are ready to help down in OC! ,” Selling the OC’s Brindle, 38, replied, while Fitzgerald Bonnet, 44, sent a flurry of heart emojis.
A string of wildfires broke out in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood and the surrounding Los Angeles area on Tuesday, January 7, causing mass devastation. As of publication, 11 people have died as the fires have burned more than 37,000 acres of land. In addition, more than 12,000 structures have reportedly been destroyed and tens of thousands of residents have been forced to flee their homes under mandatory or voluntary evacuation orders.
As the wildfires continue to tear across the L.A. area, many of the victims are starting to figure out their next steps. Jason, for his part, lamented the subsequent real estate struggles he faced on Friday, January 10.
“I’ve been searching on the MLS [directory] trying to help displaced families from the fires find rental properties,” he said in an Instagram Story video. “I’m noticing dozens of examples of people trying to do things like this, where they’re unable to get $9,500 or even $9,000 and then yesterday increase the rent over 30 percent to $12,000.”
While Jason noted he “is all for free market capitalism,” he claimed that at this time it is “blatantly taking advantage” of the natural disaster. Stause, 43, concurred with her boss, whom she previously dated in 2021.
“This is disgusting,” Stause wrote via her Instagram Stories. “Other realtors that have a moral compass, let’s please report to the board.”
The first round of the NFL postseason kicks off this weekend with Wild Card Playoffs in both the AFC and the NFC conferences — but the reigning Super Bowl champs will not be playing a game.
The Kansas City Chiefs clinched the No. 1 seed in the AFC following their 2024 Christmas victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers.
“I thought it was a full-team performance. Defense stepped up, offense stepped up [and] everyone had their imprint on the game,” quarterback Patrick Mahomes told reporters after the game. “I told my pregnant wife [Brittany Mahomes] I was going to get the No. 1 seed, so we can have the baby.”
The No. 1 seed pick does not have to play in a Wild Card game. (Meaning in the NFC, the Detroit Lions also have a bye week.) The other top seven teams in the conference will take the field, while the Chiefs and the Lions get what is best described as a hard-earned day off. For Patrick, it is also when his wife is due to give birth to their third baby.
The Chiefs will play the winner of one of the Wild Card games later this month in a divisional playoff round. The divisional winners eventually face off in an attempt to advance to the conference championship, which, of course, determines the NFC and AFC teams that will play in the 2025 Super Bowl.
Super Bowl LIX will be held in New Orleans on Sunday, February 9, and the Chiefs are hoping to make history and win a third consecutive Lombardi trophy.

“To win one is extremely difficult, to win two back-to-back like the Chiefs have done — as we know in the history of the sport — nearly impossible,” retired quarterback Tom Brady said during a September 2024 Fox Sports broadcast. “To win three in a row? There is a reason why no one has done it. To put three of those together … with drafting last, a very hard schedule, all the turnover in free agency, guys continuing to be motivated, it is a big challenge.”
Brady, 47, added, “Fortunately, they have a tremendous coach in Andy Reid [who] doesn’t ever look backward. He is not going to say, ‘Hey, because we were great last year, we’re going to be great again this year.’ He holds those guys accountable. But to win it all again is a momentous task.”
During the last regular season game and head of the divisional round, Reid made the decision to sit out a number of top starters including Patrick, 29, Travis Kelce, Chris Jones and more. Backup quarterback Carson Wentz started the January 5 away game against the Denver Broncos that ultimately ended in a 38-0 Chiefs’ loss, eliminating the Cincinnati Bengals and the Miami Dolphins from the playoffs.
Not every NFL athlete is signing a multimillion-dollar contract to play pro football, leaving their families to supplement their income elsewhere.
“I’ll just set the record straight: We have multiple sources of income that we’ve built over the past seven years,” Allison Kuch, who is married to free agentIsaac Rochell, said on a November 2023 episode of her “Sunday Sports Club” podcast. “Also, if you’re in the NFL for seven years and you need to immediately get a job the second you’re cut, something’s not adding up.”
Kuch and Rochell, who welcomed daughter Scottie in December 2023, don’t just rely on his NFL salary — especially while he remains unsigned. They also have her podcast, his Husband PSA merchandise and various other social media deals and endorsements that contribute to their family’s income.
Jason Kelce, meanwhile, played all 14 seasons of his NFL career with the Philadelphia Eagles before retiring in March 2024. He also is an ESPN broadcaster and cohosts a “New Heights” podcast with brother Travis Kelce. While the podcast was recently sold to Wondery for millions, Jason and wife Kylie Kelce still keep their home life relatively humble. (They share three daughters, and as of November 2024, are expecting baby No. 4.)
“We make sure that anything that we’re doing that they feel supported by their family and friends and then also not really putting them in any places of privilege,” Kylie exclusively told Us Weekly in June 2024. “[We’re] trying our best to make sure that when they grow up and they turn 16, they will be driving a [used vehicle]. We can’t let them have a hand-me-down car at this point. You’re not getting dad’s [Tesla] CyberTruck as your hand-me-down. You will be driving a basic model, hopefully, having to roll the windows down with a crank.”

Salary Talk

Despite players like Patrick Mahomes, Dak Prescott and Aaron Rodgers raking in the big bucks, not all NFL contracts are created equal. Retired athlete Chad Hansen’s wife, Bryce Watts Hansen, shut down the claims that “all NFL players are millionaires” in a series of December 2024 TikTok videos.
In fact, Bryce said that the couple lives in a 700-square-foot apartment with the same beat-up couch they’ve kept since he signed his rookie contract with the New York Jets.
“He was on eight different NFL teams, which means eight different contracts are being signed and broken,” she explained in a video. “When you’re on a team, it is good money — no matter [if you’re on a] practice squad or active roster, it is all good money.”
She added, “But since contracts aren’t guaranteed … [once you are cut] you get nothing, especially if you sign at the beginning of the offseason and then you’re cut during the offseason. You’re not seeing any of that money because you haven’t played again and again, you haven’t gone to practice.”
According to Bryce, they also spent most of his paychecks on the costs associated with moving between teams, and in addition to doctor appointments and other necessary expenses.
“The costs really do start adding up, so you have to [decide], ‘We’re not gonna buy new furniture, we’d rather spend it on something for his body or a recovery tool,’” Bryce added. “It ended up helping us and helping him.”
Dealing With Insurance
Courtesy of Allison Kuch/Instagram
Like any employer, the NFL offers insurance to active players in the league.
“They don’t even get lifetime insurance,” Kuch said in a July 2024 TikTok video. “Some players who only play one game, I get it, but Tom Brady? He’s only insured for another four years.”
Kuch is on Rochell’s plan, which “restarts” any time he signs with a new team.
“Last year, because my husband was employed by the Las Vegas Raiders, he got insurance for the full employment year,” she said. “Since that employment year is up, we get insurance for another five years. Every year my husband continues to play, it restarts another five years.”
So, even though Rochell was cut from the Raiders weeks before Kuch gave birth, her delivery bill was still covered by their insurance provider.
According to Bryce, the athletes don’t get to keep their jerseys without paying for them. She revealed in another December 2024 TikTok that Chad only purchased helmets for two of the eight teams he played for during his career.
“I think the jerseys can be up to $600 or something like that, so when [athletes] swap after the game, you have to pay for it,” she said. “He wished he bought a helmet for a few more, but when you’re cut the last thing you want to do is buy a helmet that’s a couple hundred dollars.”
Providing Game Day Tickets
While many NFL wives and their kids are staples at the football games, it’s not always easy to secure tickets.
“NFL tickets are not free, even if your husband or boyfriend is on the team,” Bryce said in a third December 2024 TikTok video. “They get a set amount and they have to get them transferred from another player if they don’t get enough for family members — but they also pay tax.”
According to Bryce, the tickets are scattered around the stadium in different sections next to other fans.
“You don’t get some ‘primo’ front-row seat,” she explained. “Also, when you see people in the box? Even the big players? They pay for them. They paid for those boxes, they don’t get them for free.”
Travis Kelce, for his part, spent upwards of $3 million for a box at the 2024 Super Bowl for girlfriend Taylor Swift, both of their families and a slew of famous friends. The big game was played at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium, which also has a “Field Club” right on the sidelines complete with tables and bottle service.
“It’s a crazy amount of money to get one of those booths in the Field Club,” Kylie Cole, who is married to Raiders punter AJ Cole, said on Kuch’s podcast in October 2024, confirming the seats sell for approximately $30,000 per table.
Over in Los Angeles, Kelly Stafford has needed to pay for a suite to accommodate her and Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford’s four daughters.
“There’s this section in the suite where the food is and you can sit and have a cocktail or something to eat, and my kids are sitting there coloring,” Kelly said on her “Morning After” podcast in October 2024. “I’m going, ‘Hey, there’s a reason I bring you to these games. To be honest, this is a wasted ticket. You could do this at home, watch on TV and color.’”
Kelly added, “As much as I really want them to be there because I know their dad wants them there, I’m also like, am I wasting money bringing you to these games?”
All Sorts of Fines

Many athletes have also needed to allocate part of their salaries to paying off league debts.
“You can get fined for a lot of different things in the NFL,” Saints star Juwan Johnson’s wife, Chanen Johnson, said in an October 2024 TikTok video. “The fines come from either the NFL itself or from your team specifically, like if you’re late to a practice or you’re late to a meeting … or do something in a game that’s bad.”
According to Channel, Juwan has only been fined for “failing a weight test” for $2,000 throughout his five-year NFL career.
The year before, Rochell revealed on his TikTok that in his rookie year with the Los Angeles Chargers he was fined $30,000 for a tackle mid-game.
“Everyone in the NFL knows if you have a FedEx package in your locker, you’re getting fined,” Rochell quipped. “You’re paying somebody. I opened it up, and sure enough, it’s $30,000. Keep in mind, at that point I was making $500 a week during training camp, so this was far more than I even made in training camp.”
“For wives, for sure, [there’s a hierarchy]. It has varied team to team, but if you think of any group of 53 girls in a room, you’re not gonna get along with every single one of them,” Kuch said on “The Viall Files” podcast in August 2024. “You’re gonna gravitate toward different girls, whatever. There have been teams that [Isaac] has played for, where girls won’t give you the time of day unless your husband has a certain contract size or if he’s a veteran.”
Rochell, for his part, stated that the same hierarchy exists in the locker room too, but “it’s not as bad.”
“I think guys are chill,” he said. “But there’s such a difference in how much people make that it’s hard not to have that [be a thing]. Your teammate could be making 30 times what you make. If you got a guy who’s making $4 million a game and then me — remember [I made] $7,000 every two weeks — he doesn’t care about me. There’s no way. If he’s really worried about winning, he’s not worried about Isaac on [the] practice squad [in] his rookie year.”
While celebrities and citizens alike rally around the communities most impacted by the ongoing Los Angeles fires, one creator behind a popular Timothée Chalamet fan account has words to say to the people celebrating the devastation.
“To those of you who have sent me private messages laughing at me, wishing I had died in the fire too, or that you’re drinking champagne at my misery, or that it’s my ‘karma,’ just know that I know what you are and you do not matter to me,” the Club Chalamet account posted via X on Saturday, January 11, which is ran by a person who goes by the name Simone.
“I read some of these messages, deleted and blocked them, and it doesn’t hurt me because, again, I know what you are,” the post continued. “You are heartless and evil, and you’re the type of people who would loot the ashes of the homes to find scraps.”
On Thursday, January 9, Simone confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that she lost her home in the L.A. fires. “I lost my home in Altadena, but I am safe with friends,” the content creator told the publication.
To date, the fires have killed at least 11 people and burned more than 37,000 acres of land, according to Cal Fire. The fires have also destroyed more than 12,000 structures and displaced tens of thousands of Los Angeles area residents.

In the same social media post shared on Saturday, Simone thanked followers who have expressed their heartfelt condolences and concern for her safety.
“I want to take a moment to thank each and everyone of you who have reached out to me directly expressing support, empathy, and love for me in the fallout of the #EatonFire that destroyed my home on Tuesday night,” she wrote. “I have been in a fog of confusion, I have been scared about what to do next, and I have been exhausted from not sleeping well, all between shedding tears.”
The social media influencer went on to say that she is getting “a bit stronger” with “each passing day,” adding that she is “confident I will move on from this stronger, thanks to friends.”
“I do want to address the elephant in the room which is the heavy troll activity that seems to enjoy seeing me lose everything,” she continued. “These type of people don’t matter to me, they never have, and never will. It says so much about their character to take joy in learning that someone’s home burned down, not realizing that I wasn’t even the homeowner and that I risked my life rescuing 5 animals where most people would have left them to die, especially when you have the Altadena sheriff’s department yelling at you through a bullhorn to evacuate.”
Numerous Hollywood stars — from Paris Hilton and Whitney Cummings to Jennifer Grey and Emily Procter — have reportedly lost their homes to the historic blaze.
“I am so grateful to have survived, but it is my home,” Procter, who starred on The West Wing, told CNN’s Jake Tapper in an emotional interview. “It is my neighborhood. It’s my community. What we mourn is our lives.”
Simone explained in the same X post that she is “temporarily living with my boss, along with my landlady’s dog and cats.” She shared that in the immediate future she’ll move in with a friend “until I can get back on my feet and get a new place.”
“Meanwhile, I’ll be resuming my support of Timothée Chalamet in his historic quest for his Oscar for his inspirational performance as Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown,” she added. “Lastly, my heart goes out to those of you or your loved ones who also lost their home or had to be evacuated, and I hope time heals your sorrows.”

Spencer Pratt is asking his TikTok followers to help him raise money after losing his home to the catastrophic wildfires raging through the greater Los Angeles area.
In a video shared via TikTok on Friday, January 10, Pratt, 41, asked his followers to watch and like a previous video shared to his account, which featured the song “What It Feels Like” by Aly & AJ.
“I’ll get up to $1,100 from TikTok if it’s one of the top 10 most liked TikToks with that song, so more likely $200 it says, but it can go up to $1,100,” he explained in the video. “So, if you’re bored, please go like that last video. It’s a great song actually and Aly & AJ wear Pratt Daddy Crystals — my friend Amber goes to all their shows and gives them all crystals so it’s kind of an authentic promo since they wear my crystals. I also want to get that $1,100.”
In a subsequent video, Pratt also asked his followers to add wife Heidi Montagon Spotify and other streaming platforms.
However, Pratt’s request for assistance via social media received some backlash.
“Some demonic monster just wrote on my IG and tagged me, ‘Of course Spencer’s gonna milk his burned down house for every dollar it’s worth.’ Duh. Duh. That’s right. Let me figure out every dollar I can get,” Pratt said in a video addressing the backlash, shared via TikTok on Friday.
“How do you people not have brains? Are you just the stupidest living creatures?” he continued. “Of course I’m trying to get money to pay for my life with my family because our house and all of our possessions burned down. And if I can do it on social media, which I’ve been making the only money I’ve made for years now continuously, showing my journey of our house burning down and all of our possessions, do you not think I’m going to keep milking it for every dollar?”
Pratt concluded, “I’d rather have my house and no social media, let me tell you that much. I’d rather have everything in my house and delete all these stupid apps. I would much rather that. So, yes, I will continue ‘milking’ our misery on social media.”
He also advised fans on how not to help him and Montag, 38, which included watching The Hills, on which both Pratt and Montag starred in the 2000s.
“Pretty much I’d rather you watch anything in the world but The Hills. Do not give that show a single dollar, or that narrator a single brain cell listening to her voice,” he said in a video shared via TikTok, referring to Lauren Conrad. “No, there’s no residuals. So, pretty much, I’d rather have you watch paint dry, tag me in [you] staring at a wall — that would help my life more. Do not waste your energy watching The Hills thinking that helps our lives.”
Pratt and Montag have been married since 2008. The Hills alums lost their house to the Pacific Palisades wildfires, which first broke out on Tuesday, January 7. By the time their house burned down, the couple had already evacuated with their three children: sons Gunner, 6, and Ryker, 13 months.
In a video shared by Montag via TikTok on Thursday, January 9, the couple revealed the few items that remained of their house after the fire, all contained to a single plastic bag.
“The Hummingbird pot — with some nectar cooked into it,” Pratt says in the video, along with “one [rubber] snake from the backyard, one crystal from the backyard, [another] crystal from the backyard, Ryker’s shovel from the backyard and broken pieces.”
When the couple packed their home to evacuate, they were obviously not able to take all of their belongings. In another social media video, Montag explained that “the craziest thing about packing for a fire [is] your brain just freaks out.”
She added, “It’s so overwhelming packing up a house. I mean, I only have two pairs of jeans, two shirts. I got so much more clothes for the kids. I’m like, ‘Why didn’t I grab more?’ Thankfully, I grabbed anything and that’s such a blessing and the main thing is that we’re safe.”
Despite their hardship, Pratt did provide fans with an uplifting update, thanking them for their support after wife Heidi Montag’s album, “Superficial,” jumped the iTunes Store charts following his social media requests help.
“God. Bless. All of you. Number 15 in the iTunes Store. This is a freakin’ miracle,” Pratt said via an Instagram post on Saturday, January 11. “If we get this to number one it’s official — Heidi is a pop superstar legend. She’s going in the history books. She’s already in my history books, obviously.”
Pratt went on to say that Montag’s album climbing the iTunes Store charts is “maybe the best thing I could have ever dreamed about… besides still having my house and all of my possessions.”
“But don’t worry, we’re on our way to being rich and famous and I won’t forget about you when I’m rich and famous,” he continued. “I’ll be the most grateful rich celebrity you have ever supported in your lies. Love you all, thank you so much.”

Full House star Dave Coulier has shared a candid update regarding his ongoing cancer treatment.
“The side effects have side effects,” Coulier, 65, said in the latest episode of his “Full House Rewind” podcast published on Friday, January 10. “And then you take a drug to counteract that and this and that. So it’s this constant cocktail where your body is in fight or flight mode and you’re just trying to adjust to, ‘Okay, how am I adjusting to steroids? How am I adjusting to the chemo cocktail?’”
Coulier went on to say that his body is in “a constant fight.”
“It’s a little bit of an internal battle,” he continued.
In November 2024, the actor revealed he had been diagnosed with Stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma. In an interview with People, Coulier explained that he had first received his diagnosis in October the same year after experiencing an upper respiratory infection that resulted in severe swelling of his lymph nodes.
As a result, Coulier underwent PET and CT scans as well as a biopsy.
“Three days later, my doctors called me back and they said, ‘We wish we had better news for you, but you have non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and it’s called B cell and it’s very aggressive,” Coulier told the outlet at the time. “I went from, ‘I got a little bit of a head cold’ to, ‘I have cancer’ and it was pretty overwhelming. This has been a really fast roller coaster ride of a journey.”
Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is a form of cancer that fights the body’s lymphatic system and affects “white blood cells called lymphocytes [that] grow abnormally and can form growths (tumors) throughout the body,” according to the Mayo Clinic.
After publicly revealing his diagnosis, Coulier explained that he and his wife Melissa Bring relied on the advice of friends working in the medical field to create “a very specific plan for how they were going to treat” his aggressive form of cancer.
“That was really a conscious decision of, I’m going to meet this head-one, and I want people to know it’s my life,” Coulier explained in a November 2024 episode of his podcast following his diagnosis reveal. “I’m not going to try and hide anything. I would rather talk about it and open the discussion and inspire people.”
In the Friday episode of his podcast, Coulier revealed that since sharing his diagnosis he has “heard from so many people who have been affected by cancer in their lives.”
“The words of encouragement have, I think, really helped people,” he shared. “So that, to me, is worth the journey of all of this. Just being able to alert people that it’s okay to get a colonoscopy or early screenings or a mammogram, it’s really worth it.”

Christina Haack has a new man in her life amid her divorce, Us Weekly can confirm.
Haack, 41, recently started dating Christopher LaRocca, who is the CEO of Network Connex in Orange County, California.
According to the Daily Mail, Haack and LaRocca were spotted on a joint trip to Italy in October 2024 via since-deleted Instagram photos posted by Ferrari of Newport Beach. The outlet also obtained footage of the pair together at influencer Amy Sexton’s holiday party in Laguna Beach last month.
Neither Haack nor LaRocca have publicly addressed their reported romance.
The HGTV star was last married to Josh Hall for two years before they both filed for divorce in July 2024. (It was Haack’s third marriage as she was previously married to Tarek El Moussa and Ant Anstead, respectively.)
In the most recentUs Weekly cover story, Haack exclusively revealed whether she would ever tie the knot again and for a fourth time.
“I’ll always love love,” she gushed to Us. “I probably will [get married again] eventually. But, not anytime soon.”
According to Haack, she would need to “be engaged for a minimum of, like, five years” before she would consider walking down the aisle once more.
Elsewhere in her joint cover story with Tarek and his wife, Heather Rae El Moussa, Haack detailed her mindset amid the divorce.
“I’ve been very busy, which is probably a blessing,” she told Us. “It’s really been a big growth period.”
Haack costars with Tarek, 43, and Heather, 37, on HGTV’s The Flip Off, where she competes against the El Moussas in rival renovation projects. Hall, 44, was slated to be a part of Haack’s team but was later cut from the program amid their divorce. (TheFlip Off premieres on Wednesday, January 29.)
“This isn’t Josh’s show. No one’s going to miss that he’s not in it,” Haack told Us. “Josh is not a TV host, he’s not a house flipper, he’s not a designer. He was just my husband in it. With Tarek, we built everything together, and I still have respect for him. I have no respect for Josh.”
Hall has also allegedly moved on, with a source exclusively telling Us that is dating Nashville-based model Stephanie Gabrys.
“Josh met someone wonderful in Nashville, and they have been happily dating for some time,” a source told Us. “Josh wasn’t trying to date, but he met someone, and it was a perfect match.”
Per the insider, Hall hasn’t “made a show” of his new romance but it’s not “a secret.”
“Josh is just low-key,” the source added. “He is very happy with his life and looking forward to 2025 and what’s on the horizon. This is the happiest he’s been in some time.”
Stephen “tWitch” Boss’ 2022 funeral reportedly sparked family tensions over the use of nondisclosure agreements.
Two years after Boss died by suicide at the age of 40, several of his relatives and friends claimed that widowAllison Holker allegedly forced them to sign NDA documents in order to attend the service.
“We all had to sign some weird NDA to attend his funeral — even his own mother who you’ve treated like garbage this entire time,” So You Think You Can Dance alum Courtney Platt, who competed alongside Boss on season 4 before they both returned as All-Stars in season 7 alongside Holker, alleged via Instagram earlier this week. “Let’s just remember you wouldn’t have even had a husband if it wasn’t for her.”
Holker’s daughter Weslie, 16, responded to Platt’s claims, asserting that there was more to the story and explaining why the NDAs were requested in the first place.
“Y’all love to argue about the NDAs,” Weslie said in a Friday, January 10, Instagram video. “But in one day, we had an open casket viewing for Stephen. We had a funeral, and then we had a week, and my mom asked for NDAs to be signed when we were seeing Stephen’s body because God forbid somebody that went to that took a photo of Stephen and put it on the internet or shared it with somebody else. That’s the type of thing that NDAs are for. It’s not so you can never talk about Stephen.”
Weslie further praised Holker, 36, for deciding to ask family members and friends to sign NDAs prior to the service.
“NDAs are so important, and if you guys don’t agree, that’s cool,” she added. “I’m grateful for my mom making sure that everybody signed NDAs, and she put up that rule.”

According to Weslie, her mom was ultimately “lenient” with the NDA request that allegedly allowed Boss’ loved ones to attend the funeral.
“She understands at the end of the day, like, this is family,” Weslie said. “So y’all want to disrespect her [while] she’s still nice, she’s still kind, she’s still forgiving, but you have to know, like, even when Stephen was alive people that attended our events, they would have to sign NDAs. But now, just because it’s my mom handing the paper, it’s different.”
She added, “That whole day was supposed to be beautiful, and instead, it was less than that. We were gonna say our goodbyes, and instead, people were yelling at each other and bashing my mom and, like, that’s a day that’s taken away from her. She can’t remember it as being the day that we all wanted to be because his family was making it otherwise.”
Boss is survived by his parents, siblings, Holker and their children. In addition to Weslie, the two dancers shared Maddox, 8, and Zaia, 5. (Weslie is Holker’s daughter from a previous relationship, claiming on Friday that Boss never legally adopted her despite “literally raising” her since she was a toddler.)
Holker recently wrote her This Far memoir about her life and marriage to Boss, which prompted online criticism that she publicly disclosed Boss’ addiction struggles and excerpted his personal diary entries. Members of Boss’ family and other friends condemned Holker for allegedly trying to profit off his death, but she denied the claims and explained that she only wanted to further shine a spotlight on the prevalence and danger of substance abuse and mental health issues.
Weslie also denounced the accusations that her mom is “money hungry” or seeking “more fame.”
“That’s not how my mom is. Trust me when I say my mom is good — she doesn’t need [money],” Weslie stated. “It’s just disappointing. … My mom’s made her efforts [with his family]. She’s tried for as long as she could, but this is the kind of turning point where it’s like, this stops like, it’s beyond, just like, trying to maintain a relationship now it’s like y’all burn bridges and literally it’s OK.”
Candice Miller is reportedly finding a way to move forward with her life six months after her husband Brandon Miller’s untimely death.
The former mommy blogger is said to be attending parties, various events and dinners after resettling in Miami Beach, Florida, according to a Page Sixreport published on Saturday, January 11. Two friends claiming to be close to Candice, 42, told the outlet that she has been seen attending workout classes and does not reportedly give the appearance that anything is wrong or awry, according to the same report.
Candice’s husband, Brandon, unexpectedly died in July 2024. His death was later ruled a suicide. Candice and Brandon got married in 2009 and later welcomed two daughters.
“Candice is devastated by the loss of her soul mate, and her two young daughters’ lives are forever impacted by the loss of their beloved daddy,” a spokesperson for the family said in a statement to the New York Times shortly after Brandon’s death.
Candice and Brandon were best known for showcasing their seemingly extravagant lifestyle online via the mother of two’s now-defunct “Mama & Tata” blog and Instagram account. In the former posts, Candice would highlight the family’s various trips on multi-million dollar yachts, private jets, and more.
But in the wake of Brandon’s death, court papers obtained by The New York Times in December 2024 revealed that the late real estate mogul was $33.6 million in debt at the time of his passing. According to Candice, her husband died without a will, leaving her in massive debt and, according to the social media star, only $8,000 in her bank account.
As Us Weekly previously reported, Candice “initially deactivated her social media following” following Brandon’s death, and in court papers obtained by The New York Times, claimed she owed $20 million in unsecured loans from various banks.
That same year, Candice was also sued for $195,000 in unpaid rent on the couple’s Manhattan condo. Documents obtained by Us at the time claimed that the influencer had failed to pay, while lawyers for Candice argued she was not responsible for the payments because her name was not on the apartment’s lease.
Earlier this year, Candice reportedly started auctioning off her husband’s belongings, according to a Page Six report published on January 3. According to the outlet, multiple items were listed on the website Auction Ninja, which featured “an exclusive curated online auction” sale at the Mecox Bay Water Mill Estate.
“The auction features a carefully selected collection of fine art, furniture, decor, and bespoke pieces that were part of the home’s decor, providing an exclusive chance to own a piece of this stunning, meticulously crafted living space,” an online description of the auction items reads. “For collectors and design enthusiasts, this is an unmissable opportunity to acquire rare, beautifully curated items with the unique touch of a celebrated designer.”
According to the Saturday report from Page Six, Candice is not shopping regularly but instead living a relatively quiet life when compared to her former, luxurious online persona. She was reportedly out on Halloween with her children, and while her life has exponentially changed she has also reportedly not changed — just living a low-key, quiet life.
The report also describes Miami as the perfect place for Candice to start over, in part because it is filled with people who will accept the former social media influencer.

Blake Lively’s upcomingA Simple Favor 2 hasn’t been canceled amid her ongoing legal battle, according to the film’s director.
Paul Feig responded to online rumors on Friday, January 10, that film studio Amazon decided to shelve the project indefinitely as a result of Lively’s lawsuit against her It Ends With Us costar Justin Baldoni.
“This is total BS. Sorry. The movie is finished and coming out soon,” Feig, 62, wrote via X. “Don’t believe anything you read on social media these days.”
In a follow-up post, Feig praised Lively and costar Anna Kendrick for their work on the project.
“The movie is awesome, and Blake and Anna turn in amazing performances,” he gushed. “I can’t wait for you all to see it. Stay tuned for more details. Simple Favor 2 is coming soon!”
Feig directed Lively, 37, and Kendrick, 39, in 2018’s A Simple Favor about a single mommy vlogger named Stephanie who investigates the mysterious disappearance of her friend Emily. Kendrick portrays Stephanie opposite Lively’s Emily.
Nearly six years later in 2024, Lively and Kendrick reunited to film the upcoming sequel. That same year, Lively also worked with Baldoni, 40, on the adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s It Ends With Us. (Baldoni also served as the film’s director, while Lively was an executive producer.)
Lively sued Baldoni in December 2024 for alleged sexual harassment, claiming the Jane the Virgin alum fostered a “hostile work environment” on the set of the summer blockbuster. She also claimed that Baldoni attempted to launch an alleged “social manipulation” campaign to destroy her career and reputation. Baldoni has vehemently denied the accusations and subsequently filed a $250 million lawsuit against the New York Times for their report outlining Lively’s claims.
“In this vicious smear campaign fully orchestrated by Blake Lively and her team, the New York Times cowered to the wants and whims of two powerful ‘untouchable’ Hollywood elites, disregarding journalistic practices and ethics once befitting of the revered publication by using doctored and manipulated texts and intentionally omitting texts which dispute their chosen PR narrative,” Baldoni’s lawyer Bryan Freedman said in a statement last month. “In doing so, they pre-determined the outcome of their story and aided and abetted their own devastating PR smear campaign designed to revitalize Lively’s self-induced floundering public image and counter the organic groundswell of criticism amongst the online public. The irony is rich.”
“This lawsuit is based on the obviously false premise that Ms. Lively’s administrative complaint against Wayfarer and others was a ruse based on a choice not to file a lawsuit against Baldoni, Wayfarer, and that litigation was never her ultimate goal,” the actress told Us Weekly in a statement.
