OnlyFans influencer Bonnie Blue claims that she’s broken the world record for having sex with the most men in a time space of 12 hours.
Blue, who hails from England, allegedly slept with 1,057 people within a 12-hour period over the weekend, her publicist told The Sun in a story published on Monday, January 13.
The sex worker has since surfaced on Instagram expressing gratitude toward her clientele and ensuring that she is doing OK.
“I don’t need a wheelchair. I’m fine,” she promised. “Just feels like I’ve had a heavy day in the bedroom. Which is exactly what I’ve had.”
On Sunday, January 12, Blue also posted a clip via TikTok in which she showed off her glowing complexion, telling her followers, “This is what my face looks like after taking 1,000 men less than 12 hours ago.”
In another TikTok video, she triumphantly held up a sign that read “1,000” and recalled the experience as being a series of group sex sessions in the beginning.
“The room was absolutely full,” Blue recalled. “Then we did groups of five. Like, one after the other. … I wanted to give people more time, so then it went down to, like, one on ones. So, like, one person would watch when I was with somebody” and then “it would rotate in a circle like that.”
Blue also shared the news via her Instagram, where her followers urged her to take care of herself.
“I can’t even comprehend the mental and physical stamina required for this. Are you sure you’re not a robot? ” someone remarked, while another said, “Oh bonnie love. I just want to give you a cuddle. Hope you got out of it all you wanted, take time for yourself girl. .”
Blue isn’t the only OF user who has been participating in this latest trend. Influencer Lily Phillips completed her challenge to sleep with 100 men in 24 hours and set a new goal for January 2025 is to have sex with 1,000 guys in one day.
“My parents knew straight from the start what I was doing,” Phillips, 23, said in the YouTube documentaryI Slept With 100 Men in One Day via The Mirror. “I was very upfront about it. Obviously, at the start, they were a bit apprehensive because they wanted me to be safe and they wanted me to make good decisions and stuff like that. I just think I can’t hold myself back because I’m scared of what other people might think.”
At this point, Katie Holmes is basically the queen of the everyday tote bag look. We haven’t seen one she’s worn that we’ve disliked yet, whether it was her brown woven style or her Madewell bucket bag. Her latest everyday carry-all bag is no different — we were even able to find its $17 affordable twin!
The former Dawson’s Creek star was just spotted in New York City on January 10, 2024 in one of her typical, laid back luxury street style looks. She wore a black and white shearling coat from Kuzyk, comfy white leather sneakers from Autry, the Le Specs Total Eclipse sunglasses in brown and the East West Tote Bag from Aspinal of London.
Her look reminded Us that there’s truly nothing more versatile and useful than a classic black tote . . . because what else are we going to stuff our laptop, snacks and outfit change into? It’s simply a must-have! Her $610 is a little out of range, but what’s not is this lookalike version that we can get on Amazon for just $17!

Kelly Stafford and her four daughters are ready to cheer on Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford after their recent hospital visit.
“We made it on the bus,” Kelly, 35, wrote alongside a video of her family settling in their seats via her Instagram Story on Monday, January 13.
Kelly panned the camera over to her and Matthew’s kids, twins Sawyer and Chandler, 6, Hunter, 4, and Tyler, 2, as they waited to hit the road. The little ones excitedly cheered, “Go Rams!” and “Let’s Go Daddy!”
In addition to showing off her family gearing up for the sporting event, Kelly also shared a glimpse of a blue hat with a Los Angeles Fire Department patch attached via a giant gold safety pin.
Kelly and the girls traveled to Arizona earlier this week so they could see Matthew, 36, and the L.A. Rams face off against the Minnesota Vikings in the NFL Wild Card game on Monday. The game was originally scheduled to be played at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood but was relocated amid the ongoing Los Angeles wildfires. In addition to traveling to Arizona herself, Kelly also arranged several charter buses to transport Rams season ticket holders to the match.
Hours before the group took off to Arizona, Kelly shared that her daughters were in the emergency room with an undisclosed illness. The internet personality also did not disclose which of her children was feeling under the weather.
“Last night was long,” she wrote via her Instagram Story on Saturday, January 11. “Back in beds and sleeping, everyone except Hunter. Feels like she drank a Celsius. … Before that tho, they were all smiles getting to go with daddy on his work trip.”
The following day, Kelly shared a pic of her daughters while out to eat on their trip.
“Found our happy place in AZ,” Kelly wrote via her Instagram Stories on Sunday, January 12, along with a snap of two of her daughters looking less than pleased at a Waffle House restaurant. “I promise we are happy.”
Last week, Kelly revealed she and two of her daughters had come down with the flu.
“I can’t think straight,” Kelly said on the January 7 episode of her “Morning After” podcast. “I currently believe I have the flu. Two of my daughters have the flu. I wasn’t able to move yesterday at the game.”
Despite not feeling her best at the time, Kelly still cheered on Matthew to the best of her ability.
“I passed out on a little bench in the suite,” she confessed. “We had, like, all of our friends in town and I was a real downer. Body aches are serious.”
The Weeknd has postponed an upcoming concert, as well as the release of his latest album, Hurry Up Tomorrow, amid the ongoing wildfires that have devastated the greater Los Angeles Area.
“Out of respect and concern for the people of Los Angeles county, the Rose Bowl show has been cancelled and the album date has been postponed to [January 31, 2025],” the Canadian singer-songwriter, 34, wrote in a statement shared via Instagram on Monday, January 13.
The concert was originally scheduled for Saturday, January 25, at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena, California.
“This city has always been a profound source of inspiration for me, and my thoughts are with everyone impacted during this difficult time,” The Weeknd (real name Abel Makkonen Tesfaye) continued in his statement. “In light of this, I have also decided to push the release of my album to January 31.”
He concluded, “My focus remains on supporting the recovery of these communities and aiding its incredible people as they rebuild.”
Wildfires began raging through Los Angeles the morning of January 7 when high winds caused brush fires to spread quickly through the Pacific Palisades and surrounding neighborhoods. The fires have destroyed more than 12,000 structures, and placed over 150,000 people under mandatory evacuation orders. According to local authorities, the death toll has reached at least 25 people and is expected to increase as search and rescue efforts continue.
Several industry events in California have been postponed due to the wildfires, including the Critics Choice Awards, which was originally slated to take place on Sunday, January 12, but has since been pushed to Sunday, January 26.
Premieres for movies like Unstoppable (starring Jennifer Lopez), Wolf Man, The Pitt, The Last Showgirl and A Complete Unknown have also been canceled. The Academy, meanwhile, pushed its announcement of Oscar nominations back to Thursday, January 23, in light of the fires.
Shortly after the fires began, nonprofit organization Film LA shared a production alert on January 8 noting that “the L.A. County Fire Department has specifically instructed that all permits issued for filming in the communities of Altadena, La Crescenta, La Canada/Flintridge and Unincorporated Pasadena are withdrawn.”
“The past two days have brought unprecedented risk to life and property from multiple area wildfires, while also placing extreme demands on public safety personnel,” the alert continued. “With deepest appreciation for the efforts of local firefighters, police and paramedics at this difficult time, we advise the production community that personnel resources ordinarily available to support film production may not be available during the local State of Emergency.”
Former Playboy model and reality star Kendra Wilkinson is no stranger to the public eye.
The 39-year-old first turned heads in 2004, when she attended late Playboy publisher Hugh Hefner’s 78th birthday party. Shortly after the event, she was asked to move into the iconic Playboy mansion and started dating Hefner.
“Hef asked me to be one of his girlfriends, and live in the mansion and I was like, ‘Hell yeah, I’m here!’” the California native recalled on I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here! in 2014. “I was living in this small-ass apartment with this ugly-ass bitch. I was praying for anything to get me out of there. … I moved in and weeks went by and I didn’t know that sex was involved. I knew nothing about Playboy, I’d just graduated high school.”
Wilkinson’s relationship with Hefner — along with his simultaneous relationships with former Playboy models Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt — was documented in the hit E! Reality series The Girls Next Door. The reality series premiered in August 2005 and ran for five seasons. All three of their romantic relationships ended in 2008.
Since then, Wilkinson has appeared on several television shows, including Entourage, How I Met Your Mother and Scary Movie 4. She has also authored two books and starred in her own reality television show, Kendra on Top, which documented her relationship with former NFL wide receiver Hank Baskett. (The pair married in 2009 and welcomed two children before divorcing in 2018.)
In 2025, Wilkinson made headlines after fiercely defending her weight, telling naysayers she’s “not that girl I was before.”
“Yes, I’ve gained weight. Yes, I’m aging,” Wilkinson wrote via Instagram on January 12. “Yes, I’m not that girl I was before (playboy girl) but for once in a long time I feel good and mentally healthy.”
Read on for some of Wilkinson’s most memorable moments throughout the years, from Playboy playmate to devoted parent:
2004

Wilkinson, who was born and raised in San Diego, California, attended Hefner’s 78th birthday party as a full body paint model after the late Playboy founder came across a picture of Wilkinson.
“I was wearing nothing. I was wearing a couple of rhinestones – it was the craziest thing,” Wilkinson said during a previous interview with E!. “We had to glue these things one by one onto my body. That’s when I first met Hef. I guess I caught his eye — I’m sure the rhinestones, I mean, you couldn’t miss me. That’s the night that changed the rest of my life.”
Wilkinson went on to explain that Hefner asked her to be his girlfriend before the pair actually met in person.
“He asked me to be [his] girlfriend before meeting me,” she added. “A picture was sent to the Playboy Mansion for me to be hired as a body-painted girl to work at the party. For some reason, he gave me this feeling of comfort. I was just watching him and I was like, ‘He’s a good guy.’”
2005
Wilkinson and her polyamorous relationship with Hefner — which also included Madison and Marquardt — was documented in the hit reality television show The Girls Next Door. The E! series debuted in August 2005 and ran for five seasons, primarily following Madison, Marquardt and Wilkinson as they navigated the wild ups and downs of life at the Playboy Mansion.
“At the end of the day, it’s a very awkward situation ‘cause it’s not like we’re The Spice Girls,” Wilkinson said on Fox 5’s Good Day New York in 2015 and of her relationship with her fellow costars. “We dated an 80-year-old man at the same time. It’s very awkward.”
That same year, Wilkinson appeared in an episode of Entourage, titled “Aquamansion.” In the scene, Wilkinson played a playmate.
2008

By 2008, all three former Playboy models had ended their respective relationships with Hefner. During the final season of the reality show The Girls Next Door, new girlfriends Crystal Hefner (née Harris) and twins Kristina and Karissa Shannon had joined the show.
2009
Wilkinson makes a brief cameo on an episode of How I Met Your Mother, titled “Benefits.” In the scene, Wilkinson appears on the cover of a magazine held by Marshall (Jason Segel), who struggles to use the bathroom at work.
That same year, Wilkinson married former NFL player Hank Baskett. The pair tied the knot at the Playboy Mansion, with Hefner in attendance, and later welcomed their son, Hank Baskett IV.
“We’ve already decided to name our son Hank Baskett IV,” Wilkinson wrote on her now defunct blog months before welcoming her son to the world. “Hank’s dad and his grandfather were both named Hank, so it was very important to us to carry on the family tradition.
2010
Wilkinson debuted her memoir, Sliding Into Home, which revealed both the highs and lows of her journey from the Playboy mansion to stay-at-home mom.
2011

Wilkinson appeared as a guest contestant on Season 12 of Dancing With the Stars alongside professional dancing partner Louis Van Amstel. The model was ultimately eliminated in the seventh week of competition on May 3.
That same year, Wilkinson released her second book, Being Kendra: Cribs, Cocktails, and Getting My Sexy Back. The so-called “tell-all” memoir detailed her journey as a mom trying to sustain a long-distance relationship while fulfilling the demands of her television career.
2012
Wilkinson’s reality television show, Kendra on Top, debuted on We TV, which followed the lives of her at-the-time family of three. The show ran from 2012 to 2017.
2014
The pair welcomed their baby girl Alijay Mary in May.
“I’ve been dreaming about little Hank holding his little sister for so long,” Wilkinson told People shortly after giving birth. “Little Hank had a huge smile and he now knows he really is a big brother.”
Wilkinson and her ex husband later made headlines after rumors surfaced that he had been unfaithful while Wilkinson was eight months pregnant with their daughter.
“I messed up,” Baskett said a year later in an interview with People. “I put myself in a bad situation. And everything through me brought pain upon this family. I didn’t engage in anything … It was like a bank robbery. You never know when you’ll freeze. I don’t know if it was a couple of seconds or 15 seconds, because all I was saying was, ‘Get out, get out, get out.’”
2018

Wilkinson officially filed for divorce from the former NFL player, citing irreconcilable differences and listing the date of separation as January 1, 2018. The pair requested joint legal physical custody of their two children.
2019
Wilkinson and Baskett’s divorce was finalized.
“I went through a divorce, lost everything I knew, which was my TV show. I had a TV show every year until my divorce,” Wilkinson said during an August 22 appearance on the “On Display with Melissa Gorga” podcast. “Then my divorce happened and all of a sudden, now I’m left with no marriage, I’m left with no show, I had to move into a little house — I didn’t understand what was going on and all of a sudden I had to do some intense healing.”
2021
Wilkinson returned to reality television with a new show, Kendra Sells Hollywood.
“The start of my show and the start of filming was [also’ the start of my new … journey,” the star exclusively told Us Weekly on November 9 while promoting her show. “Everything just started all at once, including the decision to start dating. It just kinda happened.”
She continued, “I needed to do some healing. When those cameras turned on — and I was ready to start my new career — all my confidence just came back all at once. I don’t know what happened. It wasn’t ego. It was confidence.”
The show aired for two seasons.

Wilkinson made headlines in September when she experienced a panic attack that sent her to the hospital, Us confirmed at the time. In November that same year, Wilkinson shared via Instagram that she had “finished treatment for my depression and anxiety.”
2025
Wilkinson had more than a few words to say to naysayers online who had disparaged the former Playboy model’s weight.
“For those of you hating on my new weight, 40 yr old face please know that I’m happy, healthy, and at a peace in life finally,” she wrote via Instagram in January. “Leave me alone and respect that I’m where I actually want to be finally all together.”
Retired actress Dalyce Curry has died in the ongoing Los Angeles wildfires. She was 95.
“About an hour ago the coroner confirmed her remains were indeed found at the property. #RIPMOMMADEE ,” Curry’s great-granddaughter, Dalyce Kelley, wrote via Facebook on Sunday, January 12. “We had a great run. She impacted my life in so many ways. This loss is devastating.”
Curry appeared in various films including The Ten Commandments, Lady Sings the Blues and most notably, The Blues Brothers. But to Curry’s family, she was best known as Momma D.
When the wildfires broke out in Los Angeles last week, Kelley — who served as Curry’s caretaker — shared via social media on January 8 that her great-grandmother’s home in Altadena was destroyed by the Eaton Fire. She explained that during that time they could not locate nor get in contact with Curry.
“My grandmothers house burned down has anyone seen MOMMA DEE,” Kelley wrote via Facebook at the time. “At the shelter searching a third time. Not here.”
Kelley had last seen her great-grandmother the day before, which was when the devastating fire in the Pacific Palisades first began. Kelley was later escorted by officials to what was left of Curry’s home.
“It was total devastation,” she said to local news outlet ABC 7. “Everything was gone except her blue Cadillac.”
Kelley also shared footage of the destruction via her Facebook page. While on the property, Kelley called out to see if Curry was somewhere in the rubble.
On January 7, an extreme wind storm caused by Santa Ana gusts sparked fast-burning brush fires along Sunset Boulevard and Palisades Drive. Many drivers abandoned their vehicles to seek safety, according to the Los Angeles Times. That same day, the Eaton Fire also began. The cause for both blazes are under investigation.
Currently, the Eaton Fire is 33 percent contained while the Pacific Palisades Fire is only 14 percent contained. According to CNN, 24 people have died as a result of the ongoing fires. California Governor Gavin Newsom said there are “likely to be a lot more” deaths, as people are still missing and search and rescue efforts remain underway.
Former Australian child actor Rory Sykesalso died in the ongoing Los Angeles wildfires. He was 32 years old.
“It is with great sadness that I have to announce the death of my beautiful son @Rorysykes to the Malibu fires yesterday. I’m totally heartbroken,” Rory’s mother, author Shelley Sykes, wrote via X on Thursday, January 9. “[He was a] British-born Australian living in America, a wonderful son, a gift born on mine and his grandma’s birthday 29 July 92.”
Whether you’re battling redness-prone skin, sun spots or discoloration, there’s likely one simple ingredients missing from your skincare lineup: a vitamin C serum.

“I have sensitive, 50-year-old skin, and I’m very happy with this product,” one five-star reviewer says. “I’ve used for a month with no irritation. There is a very minimal scent, a sort of orange-ish smell that fades almost immediately. It pumps just the right amount, has a nice blending texture.”
“I have ordered several different brands of vitamin C serum through Amazon, but I find this one to give me the best results in terms of even skin tone, brightness, and how supple it leaves my skin,” another shopper shares. “I’m prone to sensitive skin, and have had no issues with that.”

“[We’re] not even close,” Haack, 41, said on the Thursday, January 9, episode of Radio Andy’s Jeff Lewis Live. “We’re going to be going to trial I hear.”
The HGTV star alleged that Hall, 44, “doesn’t want to do mediation” and inferred he wasn’t moving the process along.
“It’s going to be fun,” she told host Jeff Lewis. “Can’t wait.”
Haack and Hall both filed for divorce in July 2024 after more than two years of marriage.
According to court documents obtained by Us Weekly, Haack — who hired divorce attorney Laura Wasser — requested that neither party receive spousal support and wanted Hall to pay her lawyer fees. Hall, meanwhile, was seeking spousal support from his ex and asked her to pay his attorney fees.
“[The court hasn’t] ordered me yet but he’s been asking me [for money],” Haack alleged in her latest interview. “I’ve already had to give a little something but then he bought a Bentley. I gave him money to live and he bought a Bentley but he also doesn’t have a job so.”
In response to Haack’s latest interview, Hall’s spokesperson told Us: “Hall is not available for comment, as he’s continuing to live his life in the present and celebrating his beautiful new girlfriend’s birthday. With that said, it’s sad Christina must resort to low blows about her ex Josh to promote her new show. She should focus on her new boyfriend and stop talking about Josh. As the great Mariah Carey once sang, ‘Why you so obsessed with me?’ We wish Christina the best.
Hall’s rep added, “Christina knows nothing about Josh’s life, and it’s sad she keeps speculating. Her accusations are baseless.”
Haack is now reportedly datingChristopher LaRocca, who is the CEO of Network Connex in Orange County, California. As for Hall, an insider previously told Ushe is datingStephanie Gabrys, a model based in Nashville.
During the interview, Lewis, 54, also tried to play a game where he asked his guest to name the ex who most applies to the question.
Haack was previously married to Tarek El Moussa from 2009 to 2018. They share Taylor, 14, and Brayden, 9. She also shares Hudson, 5, with ex-husband Ant Anstead.
When asked to share the best travel companion, Haack said “myself.” Anstead, 45, was named for best ex in a crisis while El Moussa, 43, was named best dressed.
“When Josh and I split up, I hadn’t really talked to Ant in years,” Haack shared in her Us Weekly cover story. “The whole time I was with Josh, I would worry [thinking about how] Hudson’s sports [games] are coming up, we’re going to have to be on the field together, how’s Josh going to handle it?”
After her romantic relationship with Hall came to an end, Haack said things took a turn.
“[After we broke up] I was dropping Hudson off at Ant’s house, and he gave me a big hug and was like, ‘I’m here for you and I’m so sorry you’re going through this,’” she recalled to Us. “He said, ‘I feel like Josh is the source of the problem [and why] I couldn’t communicate.’ Now we’re back on track.”
When making his TV debut on MTV’s 16 and Pregnant in 2009, the high school student and his then-girlfriend Maci Bookout were preparing to welcome a child named Bentley.
Cameras continued to roll as the pair became parents, broke up and learned how to coparent successfully.
Now that Bentley is officially a teenager — he turned 16 in 2024 — Edwards (who has been open about his addiction struggles) finds himself in a new chapter of his life. Since 2023, the reality star has been in a healthy relationship with Amanda Conner.
“I think we’ve both come a very long way,” he exclusively shared with Us Weekly in October 2024. “I just think we both want a lot better for each other.”

Edwards reportedly met Conner when he was participating in court-ordered rehab for his ongoing drug addiction. In April 2024, Bookout confirmed to Us that her ex was one year sober.
“He’s doing really well,” she gushed. “He’s doing the work.”
May 2024
Edwards’ ex approves! In an exclusive interview with Us, Bookout shared her seal of approval in regards to her ex’s new girlfriend. “We’re definitely friends. She’s really easy to be around,” she said. “You know when you meet people and you can just feel the energy? She’s just got really good energy.”

On October 9, Edwards and Conner exclusively confirmed to Us that they are expecting a baby girl in the spring of 2025. “I’m very excited,” Edwards shared. “I actually wanted a girl.”
Conner vowed she wouldn’t be a helicopter mom, but hoped her child wouldn’t go through everything she went through like challenging family dynamics. “I just want her to be very open to the world,” she explained, “but strong minded about certain things.”
November 2024

To celebrate the arrival of their baby girl, Edwards and Conner hosted a baby shower with their extended family. Social media posts showed Bookout was invited to the bash and stopped by with her husband Taylor McKinney.

Edwards confirmed he and Conner were engaged via Instagram on January 12 when the reality star shared a video of himself getting down on one knee to propose.
For the special moment, which was seemingly captured by MTV cameras, the reality star invited his eldest son, Bentley, to witness the romantic gesture. (Edwards also shares Jagger, 6, and Stella, 5, with ex-wife Mackenzie Standifer.)
Teen Mom: The Next Chapter returns on MTV Thursday, January 30, at 8 p.m. ET.
Glenn Close admitted she hasn’t looked for a romantic relationship in the 10 years since her last divorce.
During her interview on The Drew Barrymore Show, which aired Monday, January 13, the Drew Barrymore asked if Close, 77, had even dipped her toe back into the romance pool after her divorce. (Close and businessman David Evans Shaw split in 2015 after nine years of marriage.)
“No, I don’t know. I mean, I’m always up for anything, but I’m very happy right now,” the Back in Action star said.
Barrymore, 49, asked if the Oscar winner ever tried dating apps. “Are you crazy?” Close asked incredulously, adding, “No, I’m too shy to do that.”
The host admitted she “got so into” the apps. “I thought it was so much fun and the search is different,” Barrymore explained.
Glenn CloseThe Drew Barrymore Show/Ash Bean
Close, however, admitted that she isn’t looking for love. “I’m not searching,” she said. “Because I’m actually, I’m not a hugely, comfortably, social person, so I don’t leap to go to a party.”
Prior to marrying Shaw, Close was married to Cabot Wade from 1969 to 1971 and James Marlas from 1984 to 1987. She shares daughter Annie Starke Albu with ex John Starke.
Barrymore, who divorced Will Kopelman in 2016 after four years of marriage, is often open about her forays into the dating world with her talk show guests, and Close isn’t the only one who has said she’s happy flying solo. Taylor Tomlinson opened up to Barrymore about being single in an October 2024 episode.
“They always kind of tell you when you’re younger that once you’re happy and, like, feel fulfilled in your own life and you don’t feel like you need someone, they’re like ‘And that is when you meet the one!'” the After Midnight host, 31, said. “I actually think that feeling happy and fulfilled and content in your own life alone makes it even harder to date because you’re just like, ‘Well I could just go home to me. I could I could order what I want for dinner and I could just be quiet.'”

Meanwhile, Julia Fox told Barrymore that she has “sworn off men” during an August 2024 interview. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” Fox, 34, said in an August 2024 episode. “I’m happy. Everything’s fine. Why would I wanna throw anything in the mix that might mess up my Feng shui, so to speak?”
Barrymore said she herself was still single eight years after divorce, and Fox asked, “Aren’t you so happy though?”
“Yeah, I am,” Barrymore laughed.

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom’s high-profile relationship, which started in January 2016, has included a dance-off, a nude paddleboarding session, a meeting with the pope and just about everything in between.
The singer and the actor dated from January 2016 to March 2017 before briefly calling it quits. They were officially back together by February 2018, and one year later, he proposed on Valentine’s Day.
While the duo had big plans for their nuptials, they were forced to postpone first in late 2019 because of a problem with the location and then again in early 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Amid their ever-changing wedding plans, Perry announced in March 2020 that she was expecting their first child — a baby girl. Their daughter, Daisy Dove, arrived in August 2020.
Scroll through for a timeline of the couple’s love story so far:
The couple were first linked after they attended back-to-back Golden Globes afterparties together. “Katy and Orlando had a total dance-off — it was the best part of the party,” a source told Us Weekly after CAA’s bash at Sunset Tower Hotel in West Hollywood. “Katy literally dropped to the floor and was waving her booty around, beckoning Orlando.”
Perry and Bloom saw a production of The Absolute Brightness of Leonard Pelkey in Culver City, California, and posed for a photo backstage with the show’s star James Lecesne.
After Us confirmed that the pair were hooking up, they tried to avoid being spotted together inside the amfAR Gala during the Cannes Film Festival in France. They even went so far as to sit at different — but adjacent — tables. Still, an eyewitness told Us that Perry and Bloom turned around and whispered to each other.
The “Roar” singer made her new romance official on Instagram when she shared a hilarious photo of herself and the Pirates of the Caribbean star sprawled on the steps of Cannes’ Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc. “we cannes’t,” she captioned the post.
Bloom made headlines for going nude while paddleboarding with Perry on vacation in Italy. “It was extremely surprising,” he later told Elle UK about being photographed in his birthday suit. “I wouldn’t have put myself in that position if I’d thought it would happen.”
The lovebirds turned heads on Halloween when the Grammy nominee dressed as Hillary Clinton and the actor stepped out as Donald Trump ahead of the 2016 presidential election.
Perry and Bloom debuted their matching, newly dyed blond hair. It didn’t last long, though. Just a few weeks later, the Lord of the Rings star returned to his natural brown color.
Us broke the news that the duo pressed pause on their romance. “Orlando and Katy are taking respectful, loving space at this time,” their reps said in an exclusive statement to Us. Two days later, Perry tweeted, “U can still b friends & love ur former partners!”
The American Idol judge ranked her famous exes’ performances in bed during her 72-hour YouTube livestream. From best to worst, she said John Mayer, Bloom and Diplo.
Perry and Bloom reunited and took a motorcycle ride to Ed Sheeran’s L.A. concert. A month later, she said on SiriusXM’s The Morning Mashup, “I think people are in and out of your life. It’s nice to keep people you love around you.”
Us exclusively revealed that the couple were officially back together. Perry later told Entertainment Tonight, “I have been spoken for … and I’m very happy!”
The “California Gurls” songstress swooned over a photo of her boyfriend’s abs on Instagram. “Oh hey! I was actually looking for a washboard to do me laundry on,” she commented.
Perry and Bloom met Pope Francis during the United to Cure conference at the Vatican in Italy. Earlier in the day, she called the actor her “darling” on Instagram.
A source told Us that “getting engaged is definitely a possibility in the future” for Perry and Bloom. “Obviously, they’re both very busy, but they prioritize communicating and working their schedules around each other,” the insider added. “They are very much in love, so an engagement wouldn’t be a surprise.” A second source noted that the couple are “also planning for a little one.” (Bloom already shares son Flynn with ex-wife Miranda Kerr, to whom he was married from 2010 to 2013.)
Bloom proposed to Perry on Valentine's Day, the "I Kissed a Girl" singer's mom, Mary Hudson, announced via Facebook. Perry confirmed the news by showing off her pink engagement ring via Instagram. "Full bloom," she captioned a selfie of the couple with red heart balloons in the background. The Pirates of the Caribbean actor shared the same picture on his Instagram page and wrote, "Lifetimes."
Perry revealed to Us exclusively that watching American Idol has become a family affair on the weekends. “Orlando, myself, my sister, my parents, my brother … it’s like cuddling up with the kids, and we usually watch Idol on Sunday night and have dinner,” she said.
The Carnival Row actor and his fiancée are always looking for ways to make their relationship as strong as possible. "You have to do the ground work together, create a feeling of trust and safety so that you can spend time apart and do everything that you need to do, and still feel tethered to that person," Bloom said at the Television Critics’ Association’s press tour.
The “Never Really Over” singer opened up about how helping her fiancé with his son, Flynn, has helped her finally grow up. “I guess this has definitely matured me. I guess this is adulting,” she said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. “I used to not wake up until 11 a.m. and now I’m in bed like a normal person at 10 p.m., just, like, falling asleep.”
The “Teenage Dream” singer brought Bloom and 60 friends to Egypt to ring in her 35th birthday and marvel at the Pyramids of Giza. “It’s like looking out over the entire cosmos — Egyptian magic got my heart open to a download of love for my Scorpio’s wonder women both celebrating their #birthday,” the Lord of the Rings star wrote on Instagram.
After a source told Us exclusively in October 2019 that the pair were hoping to tie the knot by the end of the year, a second insider revealed that Bloom and the Grammy nominee were forced to reschedule. “They changed the timing due to the location they want,” the source said at the time. “They’re going to have one local wedding party, and the other will be a destination wedding party.”
Perry explained to Vogue India that she and her partner “pull the poison” out of each other in order to thrive. “I’ve never had a partner who was willing to go on an emotional and spiritual journey like Orlando,” the Brit Award winner said. “It’s challenging, because you’re facing all the things you don’t like about yourself. It’s like a never-ending cleanse.”
In celebration of Bloom's 43rd birthday, Perry gushed via Instagram, "I am in constant awe and wonder of how such a loving/kind/compassionate/supportive/talented/deeply spiritual/did I mention incredibly good looking/James Bond of a human being can actually exist in the flesh! There’s a reason why all animals and children run straight into his arms... It’s his heart, so pure. I love you Orlando Jonathan Blanchard Copeland Bloom. Happiest 43rd year."
Perry announced in the music video for her song "Never Worn White" that she and Bloom are expecting their first child together. The pregnant star revealed her baby bump at the end of the visual and later confirmed on Instagram Live that she is due in the summer.
Perry admitted that her romance with Bloom is not perfect. “There’s a lot of friction between my partner and I,” she explained during an episode of On Air With Ryan Seacrest. “But that friction breeds something beautiful. It can breed a lot of light.”
Us exclusively reported that their relationship had “changed since she got pregnant.” According to a source, “Orlando and her are having some ups and downs right now. Katy is dealing with the nerves of being a first-time parent, and Orlando is stressing about having a baby in their lives at this time.”
Perry confessed that things were not always smooth as they quarantined together during the coronavirus pandemic. “He’s seen it all and, God bless him, he’s still here which is amazing and commendable because I have definitely tested him,” she told SiriusXM’s Hits 1 n chill. “[I’ve] been like, ‘Oh, yeah? Oh, yeah, you think you can handle me? Let’s see it.’”
The “Small Talk” singer reflected on her 2017 breakup from Bloom. “My career was on this trajectory when it was going up, up and up and then I had the smallest shift, not that huge from an outside perspective. But for me it was seismic,” she said on the Canadian radio show Q on CBC. “I had broken up with my boyfriend, who is now my baby-daddy-to-be, and then I was excited about flying high off the next record and the record didn’t get me high anymore. … The validation didn’t get me high, and so I just crashed.”
Perry opened up about the evolution of her romance. “We have been through f—king hell,” she told Apple Music’s Zane Lowe. “We have been down to the mat and come back up again so far. … Now it’s a relationship, but it’s work. Dating is different than real relationships. You’ve got to make a choice every day to be in this relationship and to work hard on yourself with someone that’s mirroring you so intensely. Like, he doesn’t let me rest. He’s not Katy Perry’s biggest fan. He’s here for Katheryn Hudson. He’s here for building.”
Bloom joked about how their life has changed as new parents amid the coronavirus pandemic as Perry celebrated her 36th birthday on October 25. "Happy Birthday my love," he captioned four pics on Instagram. "Oh the places we’ll go..." The post began with a photo of them in Egypt seeing the pyramids and ended with the pair reclining in bed together, with Perry smiling, sans makeup. He also shared a video to the birthday girl from Borat (Sacha Baron Cohen), calling it her "dream come true birthday message."
“Orlando has made Daisy his priority and slashed a lot of his work time to stay home for the holidays,” a source exclusively told Us in November 2020, noting the British actor is “super involved” with the couple’s daughter. “Orlando is so happy about being a new dad again. He has been doing the night feeds and helping out however he can.” The insider added that Perry and Bloom have grown “closer” since welcoming Daisy.
The Carnival Row star announced in November 2020 that the couple adopted a new puppy named Buddy after the loss of Bloom’s dog, Mighty, four months prior. “Nothing can replace Mighty man, but fostering this little guy has really filled my heart,” he wrote via Instagram at the time. “If you’ve never fostered or are considering, I’d highly recommend it — it leaves two beings better off & remember what they say never judge a book by its cover.”
The “Chained to the Rhythm” singer wore an ‘80s rock star wig alongside her love to ring in the new year. “Hello 2021,” Bloom captioned the dress-up snap via Instagram in January 2021.
“Happiest 44th to my love, brilliant father of my Dove & a shimmering mirror that sees and reflects to me what I can’t yet see,” the “E.T.” singer captioned a series of photos of the pair in celebration of Bloom’s birthday in January 2021. “Thank you for always going back down to the mat with me and never tapping out ... So glad my moon found its sun, love you whole world doe♥️.”
The duo snuggled up to each other while exploring Venice, Italy, in June 2021. “🍕dump and a kiss under the bridge for good luck 🍀,” Bloom captioned a series of photos from the Italian getaway, including one of the pair kissing under a bridge and riding a gondola. Perry also posted snaps from the couple’s romantic trip, highlighting a visit to a glass blowing warehouse, a ride on a boat with her puppy and the city’s famous canals.
The couple made their first onscreen appearance together in a short film called Transmissions From the Future. The video was produced to raise awareness about the For the People Act, which would expand voting rights across the United States and change campaign finance laws, among other things. In the movie, the pair played older citizens from the year 2055 warning people in the past to "save democracy while you can." Bloom also gave a shoutout to the duo's then-9-month-old daughter, saying, "Tell Daisy we love her."
Perry and Bloom packed on the PDA while soaking in the views at the Six Senses Kaplankaya resort in Turkey. “♥️ infinity & beyond♥️,” the musician captioned the vacation snaps.
When Bloom shared a handful of snaps from the couple's summer getaway in Italy, the "Never Really Over" songstress couldn't help but notice something was left out of the upload. "You forgot to tag me daddy," she commented.
"I love her," Kerr gushed of Perry in an August 2021 "Moments With Candace Parker" podcast episode, saying that she likes the singer "more" than Bloom. "He's, like, to me right now, a brother. And most of the time, an annoying brother. So she helps me deal with him. And I'm so grateful that she's there because it takes the pressure off me."
The pair couldn't keep their eyes off one another while attending Variety's Power of Women event.
During the event, the American Idol judge called up her beau to help her “undo my corset” ahead of her musical performance. Bloom, for his part, hustled onto the stage to loosen her shapewear as Perry noted, “Pull it all the way down. I have [a] girdle in here. All the way down!”
After the Lord of the Rings actor unzipped her ball gown, he gave her a quick kiss on her shoulder and returned to his seat.
The Elizabethtown actor shared a sweet tribute to his love for her 37th birthday. "We do life we do love and it’s fun," he wrote via Instagram alongside a photo of the duo enjoying dessert. "I’ll celebrate you today and everyday. I love you."
“Yesterday he was shooting something and he was in full armor. We talked about the costumes and the makeup,” the “Roar” singer told E! News on December 17. “Or I'll have a fitting going to something, he'll ask me for notes and I'll show him this. It's fun. We tell each other the truth. I’m like ‘Babe, don't wear that. You look like, something, don't.'"
“There’s a new act on the #vegas strip,” Bloom wrote via Instagram after his fiancée kicked off her Las Vegas residency. “@katyperry so proud of you. Let’s all go #play 🍄🚀 HNY❤️.”
The "When I'm Gone" singer celebrated Bloom's birthday with a sweet Instagram tribute. "Happiest 45th to the kindest, deepest, most soulful, sexy & strong man I know," she wrote. "Thank you for being a constant compass, an unwavering anchor and bringing joi [sic] de vivre into every room you walk in. You are the love and light of my life. I thank my lucky stars for you and our darling dd."
After being spotted wearing a gold band on her left ring finger, the singer denied that the couple already had a wedding ceremony.
"Well, no. It's a destination location," Perry said on Australia's Kyle and Jackie O Show in February 2022 about their nuptial plans. "We're still trying for it to work out. But every couple of months it's like, new variant! New variant! New variant!"
Perry gushed about the way her fiancé helps her find balance during an appearance on the "Dear Chelsea" podcast. "I always say when he walks into the room he has this joie de vivre to him and some people ask, 'What is this guy on?'" she explained. "He's just really got this happy, posi[tive] vibes and I'm a little bit more heady and prone to depression in some ways — and so it's good for me to be around him because he gets me out of my head a little bit."
The singer added that it was Bloom's kindness that drew her to him — and made her feel confident about starting a family with him. "I got to see what a great dad he was with his first child, Flynn, who is now 11. So that definitely, primally influenced me [to want kids] — something inside of me said, 'You, mid-30s. This man is nice. Must breed,'" she joked. "He is a kind man."
Bloom shared a selection of photos that showed off his shirtless workouts in Australia, and his love couldn't help but make a joke about getting a little too hot and bothered. "Babe where did you put the cortisone cream," Perry commented via Instagram. "I have a heat rash."
After being asked if she and Bloom were planning on having more children, Perry hinted another baby could be in the couple's future. “I’m a planner … so we’ll see,” the "Firework" singer told People.
“Every time I blow a candle out I always wish for you,” Perry wrote via Instagram alongside a snap of her holding onto Bloom and Daisy’s hands on her 38th birthday. “38 and grateful ♥️🎂.”
"Right now, Katy especially feels like she has her hands full. Wedding planning isn't her focus right now. It hasn't been No. 1 on their list,” a source exclusively told Us of the couple’s wedding plans. “Orlando and Katy both see it as a ceremony and aren't in a rush to get married. They have a much deeper and connected relationship than they did before.”
The twosome feel “more like a team” since welcoming Daisy. “They have different priorities than before,” the insider explained. “Having this big wedding isn't as important — they see themselves as practically already being married."
When it comes to expanding their family, the source told Us that Perry and Bloom haven’t ruled out a second child.
"They're not taking any steps to prevent kids, but they're not actively trying for another one,” the insider said, noting that the musician “doesn't want to walk down [the] aisle pregnant,” per the source. “They're not against having another baby, though. They're just simply focused on Daisy."
Despite their goofiness together, Bloom got candid about his and Perry’s relationship struggles in an interview with Flaunt Magazine.
Stating that they are in “two very different pools” in terms of their career success, the Carnival Row star explained, “Her pool is not a pool that I necessarily understand, and I think my pool is not a pool that she necessarily understands.”
He continued, “Sometimes things are really, really, really, challenging. I won’t lie. We definitely battle with our emotions and creativity, [but] I think we’re both aware of how blessed we are to have uniquely connected in the way that we did at the time that we did, and there’s definitely never a dull moment.”
Perry revealed during an American Idol event in New York City that she was “five weeks sober” after making a “pact” with her fiancé. She noted that she wouldn’t “cave” because she made a “promise” with Bloom to be alcohol free for three months.
Perry offered fans rare insight into how she and Bloom keep their romance running smoothly after so many years together. "Orlando and I’s initials are O.K.," the "Wide Awake" songstress, 38, wrote via Instagram alongside a photo of herself and her fiancé. "We continuously put in the work to make sure they aren’t 🚨K.O.🚨. Find yourself a partner that will go down to the mat with you and get back up every time. I love you my fighter @orlandobloom 🥊♥️."
Bloom replied in the comments section, writing: "I love you and our love ❤️ bombs💥wouldn’t have it any other way 😍."
For the couple's location, Perry tagged "The Hoffman Process," which is a week-long therapy retreat designed to help participants identify and overcome negative behaviors and thought patterns. Both she and Bloom have completed the treatment, and Perry has credited it with "profoundly" changing her life.
During an appearance on “Call Her Daddy,” Perry told host Alex Cooper why she and Bloom split in 2017.
“We weren’t really in it from day one,” the singer admitted. “He was, in a way, because he had just done a time of celibacy and he had set intentions. I was fresh out of a relationship and I was just like, ‘I can’t do this anymore. I need to swim in a different pond.’”
While Perry had “yet to do some real work” on herself, Bloom went to a weeklong retreat “to rewire all [his] bad habits.” When he returned, the duo were not on the same page.
“He went there, and then he came back and he wasn’t playing this cat-mouse game with me anymore,” Perry recalled. “And I was like, ‘Hm.’ I was so used to this push-pull. … I was playing games because it was a dopamine hit. It was what I knew.”
Perry later decided to go to the retreat herself, and found that she then “spoke the same language” as Bloom.
“It changed my life, it saved my life,” she said.
Elsewhere in the interview, Perry shared that nothing gets her going quite like Bloom doing household chores.
“If I come downstairs and the kitchen is clean, and you’ve done all the dishes and closed all the pantry doors, you better be ready to get your d–k sucked,” she quipped. “That is my love language! I don’t need a red Ferrari … I can buy a red Ferrari. Just do the f–king dishes! I will suck your d–k! It’s that easy!”
Perry was introduced by Bloom ahead of receiving the Video Vanguard Award at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards.
“You fell in love with her as Katy Perry. I fell in love with her as Kathryn Hudson. You know her as a global superstar who brings love, light and her unique sense of humor into every song she writes and every music video she creates,” Bloom said. “I know her as a mother and partner who brings that same love, joy and adventure to our family. In moments when we have most needed it, her music and the remarkable worlds she creates have brought a sense of joy and laughter, inspiring generations of people from all over the world.”
He continued: “She loves with her whole heart and it’s kind of irresistible. I see it reflected everywhere — in our home, in her love for her work and especially in her love for her fans. Congratulations on this honor, baby. I am so proud of you.”
Kelsea Ballerini is gearing up for her tour in the most fashionable way.
Ballerini, 31, teased the wardrobe from her upcoming Kelsea Ballerini Live on Tour via Instagram on Sunday, January 12. In the snap, she zoomed in on part of her costume, waiting to reveal the rest when she takes the stage for the first time on Tuesday, January 21, in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Her glamorous outfit featured a pastel pink feathered mini skirt that cascaded to the floor and trailed behind her. Ballerini grounded the look with knee-high blush leather boots and nude fishnet tights.
Based on Ballerini’s usual stage style — which consists of sparkly catsuits, micro shorts, shimmering gowns and more — fans can expect an extravagant lineup of looks for her tour.
She recently shimmered in a strapless ensemble while performing in London last month. For the show, she rocked a black sequin romper that hugged her curves. The ensemble was finished with super-short shorts that showed off her toned legs.

For glam, she parted her thick blonde hair down the middle and styled it in beachy waves. Ballerini added even more sparkle to her look with glittery eyeshadow, extra-long lashes and glossy nude lips.
While she sparkles on stage, Ballerini keeps it laid-back during rehearsals in cozy off-duty staples, including sweats, knit sets and more.
Back in October, she showed off a picture of her rocking a mustard yellow long-sleeve top and matching ribbed pants while rehearsing. Ballerini went fresh-faced for the run-through but got into character with a “Cowboys cry too” embroiled hat.
Ballerini’s Live on Tour will kick off in January and span multiple cities, including Charlotte, Boston and Los Angeles, before wrapping in Omaha, Nebraska in April.
Sean “Diddy” Combs has been accused of rape by another alleged victim in a new lawsuit.
In the complaint, which was filed in New York and obtained by Us Weekly, the woman claimed Diddy raped her in 2000 when she was a 16-year-old high school student. The plaintiff, who was identified as Jane Doe, said she was living in Manhattan with her parents and claimed to be working as a babysitter in an apartment building where Diddy’s partner also lived. (It is unclear who the romantic partner was.)
The accuser claimed she came across Diddy, now 55, and two other men who allegedly worked for him. Diddy repeatedly asked her whether she wanted a ride home, which she refused before ultimately getting in the car with him.
The woman alleged that she became concerned when she was not dropped off at her house, claiming that she was offered a drink to “calm her down.” The plaintiff alleged that the drink made her feel “groggy” and “unsteady.”
The accuser claimed she was taken to another location by Diddy and his two employees before he raped her. The woman was then taken to her home. (The other two employees are not named in the lawsuit.)
Diddy’s legal team denied the accusations in a statement to Us.

“No matter how many lawsuits are filed, it won’t change the fact that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted or sex trafficked anyone — man or woman, adult or minor,” the statement read. “We live in a world where anyone can file a lawsuit for any reason. Fortunately, a fair and impartial judicial process exists to find the truth, and Mr. Combs is confident he will prevail in court.”
The new lawsuit is one of many against Diddy since his ex Cassie accused him of sexual abuse in a bombshell lawsuit in November 2023. Diddy’s lawyer Ben Brafman denied the accusations on his behalf at the time, and Cassie and Diddy settled out of court one day after her court filing. Last year, a 2016 video that showed Diddy assaulting Cassie in a hotel resurfaced. Diddy publicly apologized for his actions.
In March 2024, several of Diddy’s residences — including homes in Miami and Los Angeles — were raided by Homeland Security in connection to a sex trafficking investigation. Six months later, Diddy was arrested on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. As he awaits a criminal trial in May, Diddy has denied the allegations and pleaded not guilty to the charges.
“Mr. Combs and his legal team have full confidence in the facts, their legal defenses, and the integrity of the judicial process,” read a statement to Us in October 2024. “In court, the truth will prevail: that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone — adult or minor, man or woman.”

Jim Morrison’s brother, Andy Morrison, gave a rare interview about the late Doors frontman in the new docuseries Before the End: Searching for Jim Morrison.
While theories have abounded in the years since the rocker was found dead in 1971, Andy gave a simple explanation for his brother’s death.
“His lifestyle [killed him]. Obviously, he drank too much,” Andy said in the series. “I think by that time he was overweight and, you know, if you’re not in good health and you drink too much and dabble in some drugs, it’s not that hard to do.”
Jim’s body was found on July 3, 1971, in the bathtub of a Paris apartment rented by his then-girlfriend, Pamela Courson. His official cause of death was listed as heart failure, but no autopsy was ever performed as it was not required by French law.
The new docuseries explores the conspiracy theory, long-held by some Doors fans, that Jim faked his own death in order to escape the pressure of leading a world-famous rock band.
At the very least, Jim left the United States for Paris in order to take a breather from the Doors after the band finished their album L.A. Woman.
“I think he actually wanted to get back into some serious writing. And maybe he’d outgrown the Doors thing, had been enough,” Andy said in Before the End. “Whether he was 100 percent done, I think not. I think he just needed a break.”
Several years ago, Doors guitarist Robby Krieger discounted theories that his former bandmate was still alive somewhere, in part because he doesn’t think Jim could have truly left music behind.
“When he went to Paris, supposedly to get away from everything, all he did was jump up onstage with these flipping house bands, get drunk and sing,” Krieger, 79, told People in 2021. “He couldn’t stop himself from doing that. That’s why I know he’s dead. Because if he was alive, he’d be up on stage somewhere.”
Krieger also didn’t like that Doors keyboardist Ray Manzarek occasionally fueled the flames by hinting that Jim might still be alive. (Manzarek died in 2013 at age 74.)
“I used to love talking to Ray, and he would always say: ‘I wouldn’t be surprised if Jim turned up.’ And I used to think: ‘Come on, man, you don’t really believe that, do you?’” Krieger told Classic Rock magazine in 2020. “That was pretty much bulls—. Yeah, he didn’t have to do that.”
Danielle Fishel has officially completed her treatment for breast cancer — but not without some painful side effects.
Fishel, 43, shared she was “officially” done with treatment during the Monday, January 13, episode of her “Pod Meets World” podcast. However, she is now dealing with the painful side effects that come after 20 rounds of radiation.
“I am officially done with radiation,” she told her cohosts and Boy Meets World costars Rider Strong and Will Friedle, before clarifying she was “officially done with what is considered active cancer treatment.” Fishel announced her diagnosis of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), a form of breast cancer, in August 2024.
“I did 15 rounds of whole breast radiation and then five rounds of targeted radiation, which just means they focus in on the very small area where my cancer was versus treating the entire breast,” she explained.
“It will help significantly lower my chances of recurrence, which is always good news, but, boy, I am feeling the effects … Physically, I have a very bad sunburn,” Fishel continued, before sarcastically adding, “I also have a rash on top of the sunburn, which is just great.”
Fishel, known for her portrayal of Topanga Lawrence on Boy Meets World, told her cohosts that radiation treatment was “relatively easy. You don’t really do anything. You just lay there.”
However, her recovery from radiation has proven to be a bit more difficult. She further described her post-treatment side effects, saying it “hurts to wear a bra, hurts to not wear a bra. It just hurts to sleep on my side, hurts to sleep, period. Hurts to be awake.”
On top of all of that, she said, “It’s very itchy, and, also, you can’t itch it, because if you even come close to touching it, you wanna cry.”
Despite the pain, Fishel is still trying to look on the bright side. “You know what? It’s not gonna last forever,” she said. “Physically, every day now, I’m supposed to be getting better. Fatigue-wise, I am really very stinking tired.”
Her doctors also told her she’d begin to feel better in “two to three months,” and to “work out and drink water.” Fishel joked of her doctor’s orders: “I’m sorry, you want me to be tired and take care of myself?” However, she confirmed that she “did start working out.”
“I worked out yesterday. I’m gonna work out again on Friday because he said all the working out and drinking water helps my body get rid of all the damage that the radiation did,” she continued.
Fishel further told her cohosts that she will begin Tamoxifen, a hormone therapy, once she starts to recover from the radiation. “They didn’t wanna overload me with negative side effects,” she stated.
“There is no evidence of disease, so the surgery was successful and got the cancer out of my body,” she told Today.com in October 2024 following the procedures. “But they call cancer a journey for a reason. It’s not just walk in and have even one procedure and then you’re done.”
It was after this surgery that Fishel began her radiation treatment, telling the outlet at the time she was being “constantly monitored,” which included mammograms every three to six months and the potential of annual MRIs.
“I was so lucky that I found my cancer so early because I went and had my annual mammogram on time,” she said at the time. “I was thinking, like, ‘Great. I caught it early. I can be done with this soon.’ But there really is no ‘done with it.’ And so that has been an emotional and mental process.”

In photos obtained by The Daily Mail on Monday, January 13, the couple were spotted out and about in San Fernando, California. Foster, 49, and Jackman, 56, were photographed in a car while in the drive-thru line at a local In and Out.
While they waited for their meal, Jackman and Foster seemingly couldn’t keep their hands off each other. The pair shared several kisses as they sat in the front seat of the vehicle. Jackman was on the driver’s side while Foster sat in the passenger’s seat.
Foster and Jackman were also photographed in a parking structure, where they also shared multiple smooches. Before Foster got into the car, Jackman came up to her and gave her a hug and a kiss on the lips. Foster returned the kiss by caressing the Deadpool and Wolverine star’s cheek.
After the passionate embrace, Foster got into the automobile. The pair’s outing took place prior to the Los Angeles wildfires, per the outlet.
Earlier this month, Jackman and Foster subtly confirmed their relationship. Jackman was spotted supporting Foster during the West Coast run of Once Upon a Mattress. A few days later, the twosome were seen holding hands while on a date in Los Angeles, per pics obtained by People. The outlet also reported that Foster and Jackman enjoyed dinner together in Santa Monica.
Us Weekly confirmed in November 2024 that Jackman and Foster were dating. Sources told Us at the time that a romance blossomed between the Broadway stars when they worked together on The Music Man the year prior.

While working on the revival of the classic musical, both Jackman and Foster were married to other people. Jackman and longtime love Debora-Lee Furness tied the knot in 1996 but called it quits in September 2023 after 27 years of marriage.
“We have been blessed to share almost three decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage,” Jackman and Furness said in a joint statement at the time. “Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth. Our family has been and always will be our highest priority.”
The exes share two adult children. Foster, for her part, filed for divorce from Tim Griffin in October 2024. She and Griffin share daughter Emily, whom they welcomed via adoption.
According to a source, Foster and Jackman’s relationship was “the reason Hugh and Deb got divorced.”
“A lot of people on Broadway knew, and we kept it quiet because both of them are so nice and great people,” the insider claimed to Us in November 2024. “Everyone respected their privacy. But there was an affair and overlap.”

Chiefs Kingdom will welcome back its most famous member for this weekend’s playoff showdown against the Houston Texans.
Travis Kelce confirmed that girlfriend Taylor Swift, 35, will be in attendance when the Chiefs host the Texans at Arrowhead Stadium in the NFL Divisional round on Saturday, January 18.
“You know it, baby,” Kelce, 35, said Monday, January 13 on ESPN’s The Pat McAfee Show. “You know it’s playoff football, man.”
Swift was present for all four of the Chiefs’ playoff victories last season, including their Super Bowl win over the San Francisco 49ers at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
“I just want to let you know what live bettors do,” McAfee, 37, told Kelce. “They see her walk into that stadium, [they] immediately open the phone like, ‘Yep, Chiefs are about to win.’ That is just literally the feel.”
The pop star attended seven Chiefs home games during the 2024-2025 season, with Kansas City winning every one. She last appeared at the team’s December 21 victory over the Texans, who the Chiefs will face after Houston defeated the Los Angeles Chargers in the NFL Wild Card round on Sunday, January 12.
Kelce sat out the Chiefs’ regular season finale on January 5 against the Denver Broncos after Kansas City clinched the No. 1 seed in the AFC, and he told McAfee he’s itching to get back to action — while using a Swift lyric in the process.

“I’m feeling fired up,” Kelce said. “I’m feeling 22 all over again, baby. Let’s go.”
McAfee then sang some of the lyrics to Swift’s song “22,” from her 2012 album Red, while waving his arms back-and-forth.
Kelce smiled and said, “I was hoping you caught the reference, baby.”

McAfee complimented Kelce on being a “gentleman,” a stark contrast to all the “f—boys” Swift has dated in the past. When asked if Swifties can expect any love songs about Kelce in the near future, the superstar tight end remained coy.
“There might be a few, I don’t know,” Kelce said. “There might be a few.”
When McAfee asked if he had “heard any,” Kelce laughed and said, “You know I can’t say any of that.”
“I’ll never chime in, but I’m here to support it,” Kelce added. “I’m here to see where it can go, you know what I mean?”
McAfee, a former punter for the NFL’s Indianapolis Colts, also marveled at seeing the Eras Tour at Indianapolis’ Lucas Oil Stadium in November 2024. Kelce, who attended the third and final Indianapolis show, was in full agreement.
“I thought the European crowds were crazy, but I’ll tell you what man. Lucas Oil, I got to go to the last night up there in Indy, and they were lit,” Kelce recalled fondly. “They were going nuts. I’ve seen that thing rocking when the Colts are playing, they might have had that thing rocking even more.”

Taylor’s brother, Griffin Goldsmith, revealed that Duff and Koma, both 37, have taken in Moore, 40, and Taylor, 39, — as well as their three children: Gus, 3, Oscar, 2, and Lou, 3 months. (Duff and Koma, for their part, share children Banks, 6, Mae, 3, and Townes, 20 months. Duff is also mom to son Luca, 12, whom she shares with ex Mike Comrie.)
“Our dear friends @matthewkoma and @hilaryduff thought it wise to set up a gofundme for us to help with everything moving forward,” Griffin, 34, wrote via Instagram on Sunday, January 13. “Not to mention they are currently housing my brother’s family. They’ve taken care of my entire family from the moment this began. I will never be able to thank them adequately. This is the kindest act any human could do for another. They are the most beautiful, selfless people we’ve ever known.”
Tens of thousands of people were forced to evacuate due to the Los Angeles wildfires, which began after a windstorm sparked brush fires on January 7. Moore shared on January 9 that her home with Taylor had been destroyed in the fire. While the “main part” of their residence is still standing, it is “not livable.” She also noted at the time that Griffin and Kit lost their home, as well.
While reflecting on the wildfires in his Monday post, Griffin shared a carousel of photos via Instagram on January 12 of the destruction.
“It’s Impossible to express how much we’re feeling right now,” Griffin wrote. “We’ve lost everything. 8 years of memories made in our house. 20 years of gear. My wife @quintessentiallykit was applying the finishing touches to the nursery for our baby boy who’s due in a few weeks. She had, throughout the years, poured her heart and soul into making the property a literal piece of paradise. Anyone who had the chance the visit can attest.”
Griffin continued, “We often would say to each other ‘I want to live together in this house for the rest of our lives’. We had convinced our whole family and closest friends to join us in Altadena. Our parents were around the corner. They lost their house as well.”
Griffin, who’s married to Kit Goldsmith, noted that Taylor and Moore are “just down the street” while the couple’s other loved ones live blocks away.
“All of these houses are gone. The thing we mourn the most is the loss of the community,” he wrote. “Unfortunately, we aren’t the only people reckoning with this. We’ve all had to watch our home, the city we love so much, transform overnight into an infernal hellscape. And it’s by no means over….”
Griffin called the situation “so overwhelming” before noting that it’s “equally overwhelming” to see the love and generosity they have received. Griffin extended his gratitude to everyone who donated to their fund.
“I’ve never been so moved in my life. We are completely blown away. I can’t talk or think about it without crying,” he wrote. “Like I said there aren’t words to describe how I feel. I’m doing my best. You all have completely changed what the picture of our future in Los Angeles looks like.”
Griffin continued his emotional post in the comments section, noting that he and his wife have confidence they “will be OK” as they begin parenthood.
“This baby will be born into a fractured Los Angeles. But because of you all he will be met with warmth and love and comfort,” he wrote. “I’m so buoyed by everyone’s generosity. It allows me to believe that we can build back the neighborhood so that it is stronger and more beautiful than before.”
He continued, “There are so many people that need help and I know based on our own experience that so many are motivated to help. We are too. I love you all. I’m sorry I haven’t been able to respond to texts. There have been too many.”

Griffin pledged to continue to help those affected by the wildfires “in whatever way we can,” noting that his and Taylor’s band Dawes “will be involved in raising money for the community when the dust has settled.”
In his slideshow of images, Griffin shared a picture of a CD burned on the ground. That last photo of the burned record was taken by Wylie,” he wrote. “It was one of the few things he found in the ashes of his own home.”
Since the fires began, Moore has been asking her followers to consider donating to Griffin and Kit’s GoFundMe to support the family. After receiving backlash for sharing the fundraiser, Moore hit back.
“[For] people questioning whether we’re helping out our own family or attributing some arbitrary amount of money Google says someone has is NOT helpful or empathetic,” Moore wrote via Instagram on January 9. “Of course we are. Our buddy Matt started this GoFundMe and I’m sharing because people have asked how they can help them.”
Moore reminded her followers that “no one is forcing you to do anything,” adding, “We just lost most of our life in a fire too. Kindly F OFF.”
