Chris Pratt and wife Katherine Schwarzenegger had a sweet date night at the premiere of The Electric State in Los Angeles.

The couple hit the black carpet on Monday, February 24, posing for pics outside The Egyptian Theatre Hollywood. Both wore spring-like ensembles. Pratt, 45, sported a dusty lavender suit and white dress shoes, while Schwarzenegger, 35, looked chic in a strapless black top and black pants with white floral embroidery. She accessorized with white heels and minimal jewelry.

Pratt stars alongside Millie Bobby Brown and Stanley Tucci in Netflix’s The Electric State, a sci-fi film set to premiere March 14. 

The event marked Pratt and Schwarzenegger’s first major outing since the birth of their son Ford in November. The pair, who tied the knot in June 2019 after one year of dating, also share daughter Lyla, 4, and daughter Eloise, 2. (Pratt is also the father of son Jack, 12, whom he shares with first wife Anna Faris. He and Faris, 48, were married from 2009 to 2018.)

Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger: A Timeline of Their Relationship

“I love the idea of having a lot of kids around and a big family,” Schwarzenegger, the daughter of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, told Us Weekly in 2022. “Whatever God has in his plan for us is what we’ll do.”

The self-help author added at the time that she often turns to Shriver, 69, for parenting advice. 

“I feel really lucky to be able to have obviously an amazing role model in my mom, and just being able to see how she balances it all,” she gushed. “Just learning from her, being able to bounce things off of her and, at the end of the day, just knowing that family time is the most important time.”

Both Schwartzenegger and Pratt routinely sing each other’s praises via social media.

“I simply can’t imagine how lost I’d be without you,” Pratt wrote of his wife in 2021. “You’re beautiful, tough as nails, reasonable, deeply thoughtful, extraordinarily smart, you’re a complete boss, eternally driven and you communicate like no other.”

He thanked her “for being so instrumental in my growth over the past few years. We fit so perfectly into each other’s lives that our Union is a daily reminder that God is looking out for us. Navigating the odd circumstances of our world is a task I cannot handle alone. And I’m so grateful I don’t have to.”

As for Schwarzenegger, she paid tribute to her Marvel star husband on his 43rd birthday, writing via Instagram: “I feel like the luckiest in the world to live life with you. You’re the most loving father, the most supportive partner and you have the biggest heart and we are so blessed to feel and witness your love. Happy happy handsome.”

Eric Mabius Pleads Not Guilty After Allegedly ‘Ripping’ Woman’s Hair Out

Eric Mabius has pleaded not guilty after being arrested for allegedly ripping a woman’s hair out.

Mabius, 53, submitted the plea through his attorney on Monday, February 24, in court in Nassau County, Florida. He also waived the right of appearance at pre-trial hearings in the case.

The actor, who’s best known for his leading role on ABC’s Ugly Betty, was arrested on Thursday, February 20, and booked into the Nassau County Jail and Detention Center, which released a mug shot in which Mabius is seen with a laceration next to his right eye. At the time, an arrest record explained that he was taken into custody for battery and resisting arrest without violence.

However, new details have emerged that give a fuller picture of the ordeal. According to a police report obtained by Us Weekly, Mabius was involved in a fight with two women, Jennifer Moreno and Amelia Bell, at a bar in Yulee, Florida, last Thursday. The altercation resulted in both Mabius and Moreno’s battery arrests. 

Celebrity Mugshots

After arriving on the scene, a police officer “observed a white male trying to help [Moreno] stand. They were both extremely intoxicated and kept trying to yell at everyone in the bar. I escorted them outside to try to separate everyone. [Moreno] just laid on the ground and refused to listen and or speak.” Meanwhile, Mabius “became more belligerent” and did not follow “simple commands to just sit on the bench.” At one point, he “tried to stand up and walk behind” the officer while he was investigating the incident. 

Bell told police that Moreno had been allegedly “disrespectful to everyone at the bar” and was repeatedly asked to leave. She claimed that Moreno “began to spit on several people and then looked at [Bell] as if she was going to spit on her.” Bell alleged that Moreno started to push her after she told her to exit the bar. Then Mabius got involved, Bell claimed, knocking both her and Moreno to the ground. 

Bell “said this only took a few seconds but while she was on the ground Eric got on top of her and was pulling her hair” and “ripping a handful of her hair from her scalp,” the report stated, citing Bell’s recollection.

A witness named Michael Webb told police that he had been spit on by Moreno and watched as Mabius “slung both girls to the ground.” Webb “grabbed Eric off” them while police were on the way to the bar.

The day of his arrest, Mabius was ordered by a court not to contact Bell or be within 500 feet of her home, vehicle or place of employment.

Mabius appeared on all four seasons of Ugly Betty as Daniel Meade, the editor-in-chief of Mode magazine. Mabius’ television credits also include Party of Five, The L Word and Popular

Most recently, Mabius appeared in a number of Hallmark Channel originals, including playing Oliver O’Toole in the Signed, Sealed & Delivered franchise. He also appeared in 2019’s It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas, 2022’s Haul Out the Holly and 2023’s Haul Out the Holly: Lit Up, all Hallmark original films.

 

 

 

 

The Voice’s Kelsea Ballerini Says Blake Shelton Was Wrong About Adam Levine

Kelsea Ballerini is learning not to trust everything that comes out of Blake Shelton’s mouth.

On the Monday, February 24, episode of The Voice, Ballerini, 31, took a break from the blind auditions to tell fellow coach Adam Levine how great it is to work alongside him.

“Blake really made me nervous,” she said. “He was like, ‘Adam’s tough. Sometimes he’s mean. He’s competitive. He’s ruthless.’ He was wrong. You’re lovely. You’re nice.”

While Levine, 45, appreciated the kind words, he had a couple of theories as to why Shelton, 48, would say such a thing.

Blake Shelton and Adam Levine's Friendship Through the Years

“I feel like Blake was hazing you when he did that,” the Maroon 5 frontman speculated. “He’s mean. He’s not a nice guy.”

Shelton and Levine helped launch The Voice in 2011 with Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green. They continued to work together on the first 16 seasons until Levine chose to briefly step away to pursue other projects. (Shelton also left the show after season 23.)

The duo often poked fun at each other and got competitive over whose team was better than the other. Deep down, however, the pair’s bromance was too evident to deny. (In May 2023, Levine chose to speak at Shelton’s Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony.)

After Ballerini made it clear that she thinks Sheton is a nice guy, Levine decided to have a little fun at his former coworker’s expense.

“He’s not a nice person. If he’s being nice to you, that means he’s lying,” Levine said. “The one bad part about shooting this season of The Voice is that I have to sit in this filthy chair.”

As Season 27 of The Voice continues, all four coaches — including John Legend and Michael Bublé — are working hard to build their teams during the blind auditions.

Although it’s Ballerini’s first season as an official coach, her costars have plenty of experience fighting to find the best voice.

'The Voice' Coaches Through the Years: Who Left and Why

Despite a five-year hiatus from the show, Levine came back and has already secured several impressive singers who earned a four-chair turn during auditions.

“I was definitely curious to see and feel what it was going to be like,” the “Sugar” singer told NBC before the season began. “It’s been a while since I’ve been on and I honestly thought maybe it was time. I just thought I’d come back and give it another chance.”

The Voice airs on NBC Mondays at 8 p.m. ET. Stream old episodes anytime on Peacock.

Danielle Fishel Says She Felt 'Ostracized' on 'Girl Meets World' Set

24 February 2025 at 18:57

Danielle Fishel may have many fond memories of her time on Boy Meets World, but returning for the show’s spinoff, Girl Meets World, was an entirely different — and “difficult” — experience.

After portraying the role of Topanga for seven seasons on the ABC ‘90s hit, Fishel, 43, returned for the Disney Channel revival from 2014 to 2017.

“It was a very, very difficult set,” the actress recalled in the Monday, February 23 episode of her “Pod Meets World” podcast, which she cohosts alongside her former Boy Meets World costars Rider Strong and Will Friedle.

“Let’s put it this way: The memories we have of the fun set of Boy Meets World were not the memories [from the] set of Girl Meets World,” she continued. “It just wasn’t. And I went into it hoping it was going to be. I went into it expecting it to be. And it wasn’t. It was a rather tumultuous place. It was a place I felt very ostracized. I felt very criticized. I felt a lot of different things being on that set.”

Danielle Fishel and Maitland Ward Have Heated Argument on Podcast

Fishel added: “That was not the set of Danielle being carefree and running around shaking hands and kissing babies.”

Girl Meets World offered a fresh, girl-centric update on the original series, centering on the life of 12-year-old Riley Matthews (Rowan Blanchard), the daughter of Topanga and lifetime love Cory (Ben Savage).

Fishel discussed her feelings about Girls Meets World during a heated argument with Maitland Ward — who portrayed Rachel on seasons 6 and 7 of BMW — and appeared as a guest on Monday’s “Pod Meets World.” Ward, 48, had previously accused Fishel of holding a grudge against her for years since the first series ended in 2000.

The tense exchange kicked off when Fishel asked Ward, “Do you hate us?” Ward replied, “No, I do not hate you. I think that you hate me because you wouldn’t speak to me on Girl Meets World and that was hurtful.”

Ward’s claim seemingly took Fishel by surprise.

“I wouldn’t speak to you? I did talk to you,” she recalled to Ward, who claimed that Fishel “didn’t like the fact” that she was “getting a lot of attention at that time.”

Fishel appeared to cast off Ward’s recollection as a misunderstanding, especially given how Fishel was feeling at the time.

She said that “absolutely, in every experience we have had on the show, where people have finally talked about things that have never been talked about in the 20 or 30 years since they’ve happened. Or 10 or 20 years since they’ve happened. When it then comes up, every single time there’s a reveal, which is like, ‘Oh, you know what? I made this a personal thing.’”

She told Ward, “I’m sorry that you thought it was about you.”

Ward also claimed during the episode there is  a “divide” between those involved in the two shows because Fishel, along with Strong and Friedle, “hate Ben [Savage] and you guys hate [series creator] Michael [Jacobs].”

The hosts denied hating either, with Friedle — who played Savage’s brother, Eric — saying his onscreen sibling was “one of the most important people I’ve ever met in my life, and I can’t stand the fact that he won’t speak to us. And that’s what it is: He won’t speak to us.” Friedle alleged “in the middle of a conversation with Ben, he just bailed on me.”

Boy Meets World's Danielle Fishel Denies Shading Former Costar Ben Savage

Fishel, meanwhile, defended stories she has previously said on the podcast that involve Jacobs as her boss, claiming they are not “negative’ but simply stories about her past experience.

“The same way you wrote your book about your experiences doesn’t mean that they’re negative. They’re just experiences,” Fishel told Ward. “So you don’t listen to the podcast regularly, but your overall opinion of it is that we are negative about Michael and Ben and the show.”

Strong, for his part, added, “If I’m talking about Michael yelling at me, that’s my experience. I was yelled at. I watched him do things. I can describe that, that’s the truth.”

Tori Spelling's Wildest Sex Confessions on Her 'MisSpelling' Podcast

24 February 2025 at 17:01

Tori Spelling doesn’t hold back the mic when she’s dishing on her sex life.

Since Spelling launched her “MisSpelling” podcast in April 2024, the actress has been candid with her sex confessions over the years.

“I could talk about sex all day,” Spelling said on an August 2024 episode where she chatted with family friend William Shatner about OnlyFans, orgasms, enemas and more. “So, I’m not mad.”

In addition to her nonchalant attitude when it comes to the birds and the bees, Spelling has also been candid about her previous partners — which includes ex-husband Dean McDermott and former Beverly Hills, 90210 costar Brian Austin Green.

Keep scrolling to see Spelling’s wildest sex confessions over the years:

Losing Her Virginity

Spelling opened up about the first time she had sex, which didn’t happen for her until after she turned 18. Spelling revealed that she shared the milestone moment with her ex-boyfriend Ryan Ozar.

“I didn’t lose my virginity until I was over 18, so it’s not like I haphazardly slept with someone,” Spelling reflected in April 2024. “I thought he was the one.”

During the episode, Spelling chatted with the late Shannen Doherty and shared the Charmed star’s unexpected connection to her virginity story.

“Do you remember the Betsy Johnson dress that you wore in our biggest cast photo? It was black, floral … We used to share clothes, everything,” Spelling asked her former Beverly Hills, 90210 costar.

Doherty then questioned if Spelling lost her virginity in her dress. Spelling clarified that Doherty actually borrowed her dress.

“Umm, no, I’m going to say that you wore the dress I lost my virginity in,” Spelling said. “I told you. … I literally said, ‘There’s a blood stain in the back.'”

Brian Austin Green Fling

After losing her virginity to Ozar, Spelling revealed that she cheated on him with Green. When Green was a guest on Spelling’s podcast in November 2024, she reminded him about the time they hooked up at Disneyland.

“We had sex for the first time in Disneyland,” Spelling said, to which Green asked, “At Disneyland? Really? What?” Spelling clarified that it was inside his hotel room, to which he noted, “Oh, OK, so not Disneyland. Like, not on a ride or anything like that.”

Anal Sex and Lack of Orgasms

The actress got very candid about how much she enjoys anal sex and used an enema before the act.

“I actually enjoy it,” she said in August 2024, noting she’s unsure about the nerve endings in that part of the body. “If it goes in here, it’s touching something that feels good.”

While Spelling likes the feeling of anal sex, she confessed that she had not received an orgasm from it. In fact for Spelling, achieving an orgasm on its own was a “whole other challenge.”

Her 1st and Only Threesome

Spelling admitted that she had a threesome with a man and a woman while she was filming Beverly Hills, 90210 aboard the Queen Mary. She didn’t reveal who was involved in the act.

“I didn’t have any exploration wants with a female,” she said in February 2025. “So this was behind the scenes, behind closed doors of the Queen Mary, of all places. My goodness. This boy wanted it and I played along. I don’t think at any point he was like, ‘Oh, my god,’ because he would never have gone forward with it if I had spoken up and said, ‘I don’t want to do this.’ But yeah, I was like, ‘OK, you know, I feel safe with this human. I feel safe with this female human.’ And sure, I always say you gotta try anything once.”

Not Using Protection

Spelling made a candid confession about how she and McDermott never used a condom.

“We never throughout our relationship used protection … [our kids] came when they wanted to come,” she said in February 2025 of her seven children she and McDermott.

Lily Allen Recalls Spotting Her Own ‘Red Flag’ Behavior With 1st Boyfriend

24 February 2025 at 16:45
Lily Allen Recalls Identifying Her Own Red Flag Behavior With 1st Boyfriend

Lily Allen identified her own relationship “red flags,” revealing she didn’t have the healthiest dynamic with her first romantic partner.

“As soon as I got my first boyfriend, Lester, [there was a] complete transference of intimacy,” Allen, 39, said during the Monday, February 24, episode of her “Miss Me?” podcast. “Not only did I not want to touch or be cuddled or be kissed by anyone in my family, I couldn’t engage in it with them either. It was like, this person is where I’ve put that now.”

Looking back, Allen confessed, “It’s incredibly, like, red flag, codependent behavior that I just put all of my emotional dependency on that one person.”

Since her first relationship, Allen has had several public romances including her marriage to Sam Cooper. The pair tied the knot in June 2011 and welcomed their first child, daughter Ethel, that same year. Allen and Cooper welcomed their second daughter, Marnie, in 2013.

Lily Allen Never Slept With Anyone 'Not Drunk' Until Husband David Harbour

The “Hard Out Here” singer separated from Cooper, 47, in 2016, and they finalized their divorce two years later.

Allen eventually moved on romantically with actor David Harbour in 2019. She confirmed their engagement in May 2020 and the pair got married that September.

Earlier this year, split rumors surfaced about Allen and Harbour, 49. Neither of them has publicly spoken about the speculation, but Allen did give fans an update about her mental health during the February 13 episode of her and Miquita Oliver’s podcast.

“I just feel very grateful to have been given the time and the space that I needed. I went into a sort of treatment center for a few weeks, which was great,” Allen told her listeners at the time. “I did a lot of group therapy and some individual therapy, and I needed some time and space away from everything.”

She explained that during her multi-week stay, she worked on her “inner child,” confessing, “It’s a lifelong journey of healing.”

Allen, who previously struggled with drugs and alcohol, noted that she was in “emotional turmoil” before taking time to work on herself. “I’m not saying I’m 100 percent there and I’m not saying that I’m getting it 100 percent right or ever will, but I’m definitely in a stronger place,” she concluded.

Harbour, meanwhile, was spotted spending time with model Ellie Beers Fallon in Georgia, according to photos posted by Deux Moi in February.

The Stranger Things actor was then photographed at Saturday Night Live’s 50th anniversary special on February 16 without his wedding ring. (Harbour was also seen at the 2025 Critics Choice Awards in January without his wedding band.)

Andy Cohen Talks Kelly Bensimon's ‘RHONY’ Replacement List, ‘RHONJ’ Rumors

Andy Cohen took a minute to quiet a few rumors within the Real Housewives universe — starting with Kelly Bensimon’s viral Real Housewives of New York City casting idea.

“Well, she did send me a list,” Cohen, 56, revealed during the Monday, February 24, episode of SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live.

When asked who was on her list of who he could cast in a new season of the Bravo hit, Cohen got tongue-tied. “Well, I mean, a couple of them were …” he told cohost John Hill.

Hill chimed in, wondering, “Was she on that list?” Cohen confirmed, “Oh, yeah. She’s on the list. It was, I think, being kind of anchored by her.”

Andy Cohen Says 'RHONY' Reboot Is Here to Stay: 'Looking to the Future'

Cohen noted that he does like Bensimon — who starred on RHONY from 2009 to 2011 and later made appearances in 2014 and 2015— but wouldn’t divulge who she wanted to join her on the proposed upgraded show. (Bensimon, 56, also appeared on season 4 of The Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls’ Trip.)

“Funnily enough, she does email me more than you might expect,” Cohen told his listeners, admitting, “I can’t find this email babe, but she pitched [me a list].”

The Bravo producer added that one of the people on Bensimon’s dream casting lineup is “someone that I’ve known and someone you know who is not going to do it.”

“So, I got the email. That’s all I’ll say,” he confessed.

Cohen and the rest of the RHONY team have gotten some heat lately after season 15’s low ratings and controversial story lines. Bravo even put out a casting call for RHONY in January before the season reunion. (At the January reunion, the cast seemingly moved on from Brynn Whitfield’s claim that she told Ubah Hassan about her sexual assault and Hassan ignored it. Whitefield’s alleged stretching of the truth caused a rift among the whole group.)

In response, Bensimon told Page Six on Sunday, February 23, that she would happily return to the franchise and help bring it back to life.

“Everybody says I should be back on Housewives,” Bensimon said. “And I’m happy to do it with — not to be mean, but, like, not this cast. I sent a whole list to Andy. I was like: Here’s the mothership.”

Andy Cohen Addresses Speculation There's Plans to Reboot 'RHONJ'

She didn’t name names but teased that her list included women who were all “very New York,” explaining, “My biggest criticism — and it’s been the same thing throughout since I was on — is that the ultimate character on the show is New York and we’re not seeing New York.”

RHONY’s cast and future isn’t the only franchise that has fans talking. The Real Housewives of New Jersey stars are currently in limbo as to whether or not they’ll be back for a season 15.

Cohen weighed in on the rumors that Teresa Giudice, Dolores Catania and Melissa Gorga were the only current Housewives coming back.

“Bravo has said nothing. No one has any information. There is no information,” Cohen said during Monday’s SiriusXM episode of Andy Cohen Live. “I cannot stress this enough. Y’all are not going to hear anything for a while.”

He also shut down the rumors about Giudice, 52, getting her own spinoff, saying only when fans read a story that says “Bravo has announced” or “Andy said on his radio [show]” will they be factual.

Cohen’s statements back up Us Weekly’s previous report that the RHONJ stars are awaiting a decision on casting.

Frustrated Andy Cohen Tells Disgruntled 'RHONJ' Fan We'll 'Reboot' the Show

“All of them have been in contact with production, but not with any news,” a source exclusively told Us earlier this month. “There’s still an open line of communication but no news on who is coming back or who is not coming back.”

Season 14 of the series starred Guidice, Gorga, 45, Catania, 54, Jennifer Aydin, Margaret Josephs, Rachel Fuda and Danielle Cabrael. Jackie Goldschneider and Jennifer Fessler also made appearances as “friends.”

The insider noted that although there’s no news about what’s next for RHONJ, “Production wants the show to come back.”

A spokesperson for Bravo told Us in a statement that “no decisions have been made around casting for RHONJ.”

OnlyFans influencer Lily Phillips is often candid about her profession as a sex worker — and she’s had a lot to say, especially after sleeping with 101 men in one day.

Phillips made headlines in December 2024 after she revealed she’d completed the sex challenge. The men who participated were all screened for STDs, and Phillips insisted they wear condoms when they had sex.

Since then, Phillips has been the subject of media and social media attention and scrutiny. Here’s a look at everything she’s said about her OnlyFans career:

Her Income Is ‘In the Millions’

A lot of people are curious about how much money Phillips brings in via OnlyFans. Though she hasn’t disclosed an exact figure, in January 2025 she told E! News her income is currently “in the millions.”

In the same interview, Phillips said she doesn’t see herself stopping sex work no matter how much money she makes. “There’s no goal. It’s not like, ‘Oh, if I hit this figure, I’ll stop doing this,’” she explained. “I’m doing it for the love of the game. I just really enjoy it.”

Sex work was also something she did “as a hobby” before turning to OnlyFans. “I want to be unique in the industry,” she said. “This is kind of my niche. I have no regrets because everything I’ve done has led up to this point in my life.”

Her Parents Know She’s on OnlyFans

In December 2024, Phillips said in the YouTube documentary I Slept With 100 Men in One Day that her parents are very aware of her job. “My parents knew straight from the start what I was doing,” she explained. “I was very up-front 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.”

But that doesn’t mean she fills them in on everything. “They don’t need to know the logistics,” she added. “I do feel a little bit embarrassed. … I guess because it’s not what my parents would have chosen for me to do. Doesn’t mean my parents are going to disown me or hate me or anything like that. I just don’t want them to think less of me.”

She Has Claimed to Be Pregnant

Months after her “100 Men” challenge went viral, Phillips claimed she is pregnant. She seemingly announced the news via Instagram on February 18, 2025, when she posted two photos: one of her cradling a baby bump and a second of a positive pregnancy test. “The secret is out💗💙,” Phillips captioned her post. “Baby Phillips 2025.”

Amid rumors that the pregnancy is not real, Phillips laughed off speculation that she is lying about the milestone. When asked by a TMZ reporter on February 21, 2025, whether the pregnancy is fake, she replied, “No.”

It seems not everyone approves of Phillips’ sex challenges. In January 2025, she revealed that Airbnb banned her from the platform after she used a home from the rental service as her location while sleeping with 101 men in a day.

“It was really scary because they could f—ing sue me, but fingers crossed,” she told the “Plug Talk” podcast. “If they sue me, I’ll just buy it off them and make it, like, a tourist attraction.”

Carolyn Reveals What She Plans to Tell Danielle at 'The Traitors' Reunion

24 February 2025 at 14:45

Carolyn Wiger already has an idea of what she’s going to say to Danielle Reyes when they meet again at The Traitors reunion.

“‘Good game, girl,’” the Survivor alum, 38, exclusively told Us Weekly on Monday, February 24, when asked what she wants to tell Danielle, 53, when they’re face-to-face following Carolyn’s recent banishment. “People are telling me this: ‘Carolyn, she’s getting so much hate.’ The game is done.”

While Carolyn acknowledged that she was “super emotional” after watching the recent Traitors episode back, she’s gradually coming to terms with Danielle’s move to get her out.

“I was pissed after watching that dang edited episode. I’m not going to lie, I was pissed,” she confessed. “But it’s been a few days now, and I’m just not in the same place. And I truly do feel so grateful for the experience.”

Carolyn explained that she’s not “just saying that to sound positive,” but instead she’s looking forward to the future.

“There’s nothing that at the reunion, if I get it out or say it to Danielle… it’s not going to change anything. It’s not,” she told Us. “And at the end of the day she got me, and I’m not going to beat myself up.”

Carolyn confessed that at first she was hard on herself for being “so emotional” when she would try to get her point across, and shared that she wishes that she could change up her communication style.

“Even how I’m perceived sometimes in my arguments and how, because I say things so emotionally,” she explained. ”So I was like, ‘I wish I could talk like that. I wish I could talk in a way where people are going to actually hear me.’ But truly, at the end of the day, I do believe there’s two people in that game who think [Danielle is] a traitor and I didn’t have a chance anyway.”

During the premiere episode, Carolyn, Danielle and Bob the Drag Queen were selected by Alan Cumming as the traitors for season 3. The trio were later joined by Boston Rob Mariano in the turret. Now, Danielle is the sole traitor left and she’s selected to recruit her Big Brother bestie, Britney Haynes, to join her. Before Carolyn’s banishment, Danielle wanted to bring Britney in as a traitor. However, Carolyn was not on board with that decision — so the duo opted to murder Sam Asghari instead.

After disagreeing with the decision to seduce a faithful, Danielle helped plant seeds against Carolyn to get her out — which ultimately worked. The pair went at it during the roundtable which ended up with Danielle comparing Carolyn to Forrest Gump. While Danielle claimed the remark was a compliment, Carolyn doesn’t see it that way.

“I certainly didn’t take it as a compliment. It hurt,” she told Us. “Then I say to myself, ‘But Carolyn, you’re putting yourself out there the way that you do. Does it mean that I deserve to be called that?’ But at the end of the day, it helps my game.”

Carolyn shared that criticism of her strategy is fair game, but that she wants the personal remarks to be left behind.

“When people make fun of our gameplay, or [say] ‘that was a stupid move,’ or ‘that was a go ahead‘ and call me a dumb player or … I didn’t make the best move or say that I should have done this or that. That’s to me, go ahead,” she told Us. “But when it comes to the personal stuff … I’m not going to lie with playing Survivor the first time — and that’s where I don’t search my name anymore — because it’s like I’ve seen enough comments where people think that I’m on drugs or that my face had a stroke or that I am crazy, or they diagnosed me with something because of my personality.”

New episodes of The Traitors are released Thursdays on Peacock.

UFC Icon Chuck Liddell Engaged to Girlfriend After Hockey-Themed Proposal

24 February 2025 at 14:45

UFC legend Chuck Liddell is engaged to his girlfriend, Heidi Rae, after a well-orchestrated proposal on the ice at Anaheim’s Honda Center. 

Liddell, 55, pulled off the epic surprise on Wednesday, February 19, at the home of the NHL’s Anaheim Ducks — but first, he had to get her to the arena. 

The former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion, who has been dating Rae since 2021, said the couple had been asked to participate in a photo shoot by their beloved Ducks. 

“I truly thought we were there to do a shoot and everything was completely normal,” Rae exclusively told Us Weekly. “I’ve been to countless of these with him throughout the years.”

Once the couple made it on the ice – in custom Ducks jerseys, of course – the arena Jumbotron, which had been lowered to the ground, read “Heidi, will you marry me?” Liddell then dropped to one knee and pulled out a ring with Ducks’ mascot, Wild Wing, watching on intently. 

“Surprised is an understatement,” Rae said. “I just cried because I was so overcome with emotions. We’ve both wanted this for so long and it’s been a long road. Having your happily ever finally come was surreal. Getting to spend your life with your best friend and the person you trust most in the world is an indescribable happiness.”

Liddell said logistical hangups meant he had to “cancel and change” the proposal a couple of times, but he was confident about the plan when the big day finally arrived. 

“I wasn’t really worried about her finding out,” Liddell told Us. “We had done pretty well. She didn’t ask a lot of questions. She’s done this with me in the past. It was probably a little different, but I don’t think she thought that much about it.”

When it came to the ring, the UFC Hall of Famer sought the advice of two very important people in his soon-to-be fiancée’s life.

“I had help from her daughters,” Liddell said. “I know when to ask for help. She had a very particular style.”

Rae’s daughters – Ashtyn, 25, and Halle, 21 – picked out a pear-shaped canary yellow diamond surrounded with pavé diamonds on a diamond pavé eternity band.

“It was just so beautiful,” Rae said of the ring. “It was quite enormous.”

As for their eventual wedding, Liddell and Rae are actually third in line in their blended family when it comes to making their way to the altar.

“We have two kids that are engaged currently,” Liddell explained. Rae said two of the couple’s daughters got engaged in December 2024.

Liddell added, “We’ve got to plan it around them. But we’re not pushing it out too far. We’ll figure it out.”

After adding her own wedding to the couple’s busy calendar, Rae gushed about the guy she plans to spend the rest of her life with. 

“There is no one I could love more,” she said “He is the best, most trustworthy man.”

Why Jana Kramer Ultimately Regrets Reason for Getting Breast Augmentation

24 February 2025 at 14:20
Jana Kramer Regrets Her Boob Job

Jana Kramer isn’t thrilled with the reasons why she decided to undergo breast augmentation in 2021.

“My biggest regret with my boobs is that I don’t know if I solely did it for me,” Kramer, 41, shared on her “Whine Down” podcast on Monday, February 24. “I think that’s what I could say would be my biggest piece of advice. It has to be one hundred percent for you.”

The One Tree Hill actress went on to reveal that a big part of the reason why she even considered getting a boob job was due to her ex husband Mike Caussin. (The twosome divorced in 2021 after six years of marriage.)

“I was in a marriage that a husband was cheating all the time and I would see the women that he was cheating with and I’m like, ‘I look nothing like them,’” she explained. “I thought about it for a while, like, maybe if I had bigger boobs, he wouldn’t cheat or he’d find me sexier or something like that.”

Jana Kramer Had 'No Desire' to Breast-Feed: It Was 'Important to' My Husband

Although she didn’t like the fact that her decision had to do with her ex, Kramer now feels like she “got to a place” where she does feel like she did the breast augmentation just for her after choosing a doctor from home that she felt comfortable with.

“I loved it,” Kramer gushed about her end results. “I had a lot of fun with them post divorce because Mike never actually got to feel them … which was glorious.”

Even though she does like how she looks with the implants, Kramer did admit she’d like to take them out eventually and just lift them again.

“I think I kind of just want it to be more natural and not have an implant in there,” she explained. “So when that time comes for me to take them out and redo them again, I don’t think I’d put them back in.”

In March 2021, Kramer previously discussed how her feelings on having plastic surgery shifted after she welcomed her two kids Jolie, 9, and Jace, 6, with Caussin, 37, and after his infidelity.

Jana Kramer Claims Ex-Husband Mike Caussin Threw Wet Laundry at Her: Book

“With everything that happened in my marriage I thought I would be loved more, sexier, or quite frankly he would choose me. But the better part of me knew, that was a distraction,” Kramer wrote via Instagram at the time. “It still bothered me though. And after having babies, I had a new set of insecurities with my body. Things didn’t go back to normal, and I carry a lot of embarrassment when I’m undressed. I don’t want to feel that way anymore. That was the ‘click’ that showed I should follow through.”

Kramer told her fans that she’s “doing what’s right for her” and encouraged them to “celebrate” her decision.

“I’m at a place where I feel empowered to do what I want. I’m being honest about what it means,” she shared. “If you need a push to give yourself that same grace, here it is. … Do what’s right for you, and I’ll celebrate with you, too.”

Jesse Plemons Doesn't 'Regret' Gaining Weight for 2015 Role

Jesse Plemons is opening up about gaining weight for his role in 2015’s Black Mass — and why, he probably wouldn’t do it again.

Speaking with The Independent in an interview published on Saturday, February 22, Plemons, 36, spoke about putting on weight for role as former mobster Kevin Weeks in Black Mass, saying it “did mess [him] up a bit” afterward.

“I never imagined getting to play a part like that,” he told the outlet, explaining that gaining weight “was a decision I made at that age, given that opportunity for that director — and I was playing a real person. I don’t regret it.” He continued, “But it was very easy to put the weight on, and much more difficult taking it off.”

Plemons added, “I don’t know if it’s something I would do again — because it did mess me up a bit.” He also shared that his choice to gain weight for the role wound up having a prolonged effect on his acting career.

“I felt like that decision I made sort of dictated the types of parts I was being asked to play, and then started to seep into my own identity,” he said. “Which wasn’t necessarily who I was before that.”

Plemons has also lost weight for his acting roles. He revealed that his role in Civil War in 2024 encouraged him to make certain lifestyle changes, including intermittent fasting, which contributed to him losing weight, saying his casting in the film “snapped me out of it.”

“As well as having young kids,” Plemons said. “And I just got a handle on it again. Having lost the weight, aside from feeling better, it does feel like I’ve opened another door to potential parts I can play.” (Plemons shares sons Ennis, 6, and James, 3, with wife Kirsten Dunst.)

Plemons has previously opened up about losing weight, telling Entertainment Tonight in June last year that he shed 50 pounds “over the course of a year and a half or so.”

He added, “I have much more energy [now] and, like I’ve said, I’ve got young kids, so I got to keep up with them.”

Celebrities Who’ve Lost or Gained Weight for Movie and TV Roles

Plemons had a brief cameo in Civil War as an ultranationalist militant. Last year, he told The Los Angeles Times that part of his decision to lose weight was both due to “getting older” but also for an upcoming film role.

He told the outlet in June 2024, “I hate even getting specific because then it turns into a whole thing, but there was a part that I did that in my mind I could not imagine him as the size that I was.”

Plemons also clapped back at assumptions that he was using Ozempic, a type 2 diabetes medication that has become popular for its efficacy in weight loss, to help him lose weight.

“It’s really unfortunate that I decided to get healthy when everyone decided to take Ozempic,” he said. “It doesn’t matter, everyone’s going to think I took Ozempic anyways.”

Alexe Godin Was ‘Nervous’ To Go On ‘The Bachelor’ With a Sleeve of Tattoos

The Bachelor‘s Alexe Godin opened up about every single one of her tattoos.

Alexe quickly made her way into Bachelor Nation’s hearts while starring on Grant Ellis’ season 29, and took to TikTok on Sunday, February 23, to explain the stories behind her tattoos.

“I was super nervous to go on The Bachelor because they had never had a full-sleeve tattoo girl before on the show,” she said, noting she wanted to look like Miley Cyrus with a sleeve. “I was worried people would judge me and then I thought, ‘Who cares? This is me.’”

She added, “I wish I could say they all have super deep meanings, but to be honest, they all were very impulsive, spur-of-the-moment decisions.”

Why Alexe Godin Disappeared From ‘The Bachelor’ Group Date

Alexe first showed an underboob tattoo, which she got when she was just 19 years old. She explained that it was written in Greek, because she believed she was a quarter Greek, but is only one-sixteenth. “I had no way of translating it from someone who speaks Greek, so I went on Google Translate.”

She continued, “It’s supposed to say something corny like, ‘Live by the sun, love by the moon,’” however, it actually reads, “Live on the sun, love for the moon.”

Moving onto her arm, Alexe has a butterfly on her shoulder, representing “evolving and becoming a better person.” Next, she showed off an eye tattoo, which she later covered with a large mermaid because the artwork wasn’t her style. “That was the first time I was like, ‘Oh my gosh. What did I just put on my arm?! That is there forever. Now, I have to commit to a full sleeve.”

Elsewhere on her arm, she has “Honey” written, a drawing of a woman with flowers that also represents “evolving,” and a bumble bee, which is one of her obsessions — even though she wanted it to be much smaller.

Alexe also flaunted a bull skull drawing, which she thought “looked cool” on her bicep.

While she was getting the bull, Alexe thought her arm looked like it was missing something, so the artist suggested she get another at the same appointment.

Alexe also has a matching cloud tattoo on her forearm beside a snake, which she gushed is her “favorite.”

The Bachelor Nation star recommended that fans think about a tattoo idea for a “full year” before getting one, so they don’t regret it.

Kyle Cooke and Craig Conover’s Loverboy Drama Explained

Kyle Cooke Breaks Down Craig Conover and Loverboy Investment Drama Timeline

Kyle Cooke and Craig Conover have been friends for years — but that hasn’t stopped them from feuding over Loverboy and loyalty.

Cooke launched his alcohol brand, Loverboy, in 2018, with his now-wife, Amanda Batula, and friend Carl Radke by his side. Five years later, the canned cocktails landscape had grown even bigger and pal Conover jumped on the bandwagon.

When Conover announced in April 2024 that he was an investor in Spritz Society, Cooke claimed there was “no bad blood” between them. However, Cooke confessed during a May 2024 appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen that it “rubbed me the wrong way” how Conover told him he was working with a competitor.

“First and foremost, all my friends that I’ve filmed with know that I’ve raised money,” Cooke later claimed during a June 2024 episode of the “Trading Secrets” podcast. “The only person that ever expressed interest was Carl.”

Cooke, who has known Conover since 2018, alleged, “Craig never expressed interest. He never once asked to invest in Loverboy.”

Scroll down for a complete timeline of Cooke and Conover’s drama surrounding Loverboy — and see where they stand now:

The Initial Announcement

“I’m so excited to announce that I am now an investor in @spritz! I first found out about Spritz last summer when me and Paige [DeSorbo] were on our way to @taylorswift at Metlife and the party bus was stocked with these delicious wine spritzers,” Conover wrote in a lengthy Instagram post in April 2024. “One sip was all it took for me to realize they were onto something and I needed to learn more about the brand — I loved the concept of a refreshing wine based drink & how they brought everyone together.”

He gushed, “I’m so excited to be in the Spritz Society family and for y’all to see the amazing projects we’ve got in the works.”

“Obviously I’ve always had respect for Austen [Kroll] and Kyle and all of them but being in the liquor business or wine liquor business now, I’m like, ‘Oh my gosh. This is a new territory,’” Conover told Page Six in May 2024, referring to Kroll’s Trop Hop beer and Cooke’s Loverboy alcohol brand.

Conover noted that he has “always respected Kyle’s hustle,” but he also “didn’t understand it at times” until he got involved in the industry. “I understand why he’s had to work so hard, because the grind in the alcohol business is extreme,” he added.

Conover alleged that prior to the Spritz Society investment, he “offered to buy into” Kroll’s beer company but Kroll declined his offer. Conover also claimed he “would have loved to invest” in Loverboy, but “that wasn’t an option.”

Kyle Goes on ‘Watch What Happens Live’

Cooke initially told Andy Cohen on a May 2024 episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen that there was “no bad blood” between him and Conover over Spritz Society. “I think this is being blown out of proportion,” he explained. “I don’t really think there was an investment, and it seems like all the press is referencing me.”

Cooke later said, “Look, I wish him the best, but the way he handled it, and we don’t have time to get into it, really rubbed me the wrong way, and I’m just trying to take the high road.” He alleged Conover “has a reputation of lying and he lied to me.”

The Investor Issue

After Spritz Society founder Ben Soffer’s wife, Claudia Oshry, claimed during a May 2024 episode of “The Toast” podcast that Cooke denied Conover the ability to invest in Loverboy — and alleged that Loverboy has no investors — Cooke addressed the drama.

“I don’t know what got lost in translation. Loverboy has investors, we’ve had investors since 2019,” Cooke said on Jason Tartick’s “Trading Secrets” podcast in June 2024. “I value them immensely. I’ve had lots of them texting me saying, ‘What in the heck is going on?’ I could not have done it without them.”

Cooke claimed that Conover was well aware that he was looking for investors and fundraising opportunities when they were in Vermont for Winter House in March 2022.

“I am not a sole owner. I wanna make that very clear,” Cooke said on the podcast. “We were actually fundraising — I was very vocal about this with my close friends, Craig included, during Winter House [season 2]. I was busy raising a round of financing. It’s like, this is not a secret.”

Does Kyle Cooke Force His ‘Summer House’ Castmates to Drink Loverboy?

Kyle’s Spritz Society Conversation

Nearly two years after Cooke was fundraising in early 2022, he crossed paths with Soffer, Spritz Society’s founder, in New York City. “He had DMed me when we were both at an industry conference in January. And per the timeline his wife laid out, he was already in talks with Craig,” Cooke explained in June 2024 as to how he first connected with Soffer, noting the pair agreed to go to dinner the following month.

“This dinner ended up taking place about two weeks before Craig and I got drinks. We’re talking like receipts and timelines these days [so] dinner was February 7th,” Cooke confirmed. “I really enjoyed the conversation.”

The Summer House star recalled Soffer eventually saying, “‘Hey, maybe we could collab and like throw a party, kind of cross pollinate our audiences.’” While Cooke was entertaining the idea, he learned that Soffer was with Conover the following day and Soffer “never mentioned” it.

“I didn’t know at this time that him and Craig were talking about a collab,” Cooke said, noting, “He knows Craig and I are friends. … I just wish he was a little more transparent with his intentions.”

Cooke confessed that found it “extremely odd” that Soffer didn’t tell him or Conover that he’d been spending time with the other person all while working on an investment deal with Conover.

How Craig Told Kyle About His Spritz Society Situation

Shortly after Cooke met with Soffer in NYC, Conover reached out to go to get drinks in the Big Apple. “It all kind of unfolded in early February, Craig and I got drinks,” Cooke said during the June 2024 podcast episode. “I thought it was just to catch up.”

Cooke claimed that “10 minutes before” their friend Tom Schwartz showed up at the bar, Conover “sprung” his Spritz Society deal on him.

“It sounded very much like the offer on the table was [that] he was being given equity and then boom, he actually left [the bar] early and that was it,” Cooke recalled. “The next day I texted him like, ‘Hey man, I’ve been giving a lot of thought to what you said about this opportunity you have, and please, like, hold off from signing anything. I’d love to put an offer on the table to kind of counter it.’”

Cooke alleged that after some “back and forth” Conover told him it was “too late” for Cooke to counter with a Loverboy offer.

“I just figured he’d at least give me an opportunity to [be] like, ‘Hear me out,’” Cooke continued. “To be honest, I kind of feared that this would impact our friendship because this has been my blood sweat and tears for the last five years.”

Cooke admitted he is “sensitive” about his company, revealing that while he doesn’t need Conover involved in Loverboy he was surprised by the move to go with Spritz Society.

“I just didn’t think one of my good friends would go hop in bed with a competitor,” he said. “You know, that’s it. That was the extent of our conversation.”

Cooke revealed that after his chat with Conover in February 2024, he chose to keep it to himself and not bring up the news publicly. However, that changed when Cohen asked him about their Loverboy quarrel on WWHL in May 2024.

“You’re in the hot seat. … I’ll be honest, like, he caught me off guard, Andy Cohen,” Cooke recalled during the June 2024 podcast, referring to the talk show appearance. “I was ready to talk about Summer House, and I hadn’t thought about this in a while. And I let my emotions get the best of me.”

The reality star continued, “Up until then, I had very consciously decided not to comment via the various press requests about Craig’s involvement in this competitor. I was very much focused on keeping this a private matter.”

Cooke said that it was not his intention to bring it up when he did. He noted that he is not only friends with Conover but he’s close with the Southern Charm star’s then-girlfriend, DeSorbo, as well. (Conover and DeSorbo split in November 2024 after three years of dating.)

“The last thing I’m trying to do is make it awkward for any of us,” Cooke shared, adding that he wishes he “wasn’t so reactionary” on WWHL. (Cooke claimed at the time that Conover “has a reputation of lying and he lied to me.”)

Cooke stands by what he said to Cohen about Conover but confessed he “could have handled it better.” He added: “Sometimes I’m right, but it’s my delivery and it’s my tone and my temper [that] make me dead wrong.”

A Hopeful Future

“I’m pretty bummed with how everything went down,” Cooke told Tartick in June 2024, explaining that the “only choice” now is to “hopefully” not let the career decision “interfere with our friendship.”

Cooked continued: “In all seriousness, I hope to have a chance to talk with Craig. I wanna squash the beef. Like, what’s done is done. I tell ’em straight up like, ‘I’m sorry for being reactionary and Watch What Happens.’”

He concluded, “The irony here is it’s really not about two startups competing against one another. It’s trying to stay relevant in an industry that is really good at keeping the startups small.”

His Instagram Comment

Following Cooke’s appearance on Tartick’s podcast, he doubled down on claims that Conover “never” expressed interest in investing with an Instagram comment.

“The more I think about it, the more I think Craig was intentionally or unintentionally trying to justify things and misled Claudia and Ben as to what we discussed,” Cooke wrote in a comment left on Tartick’s June 2024 Instagram post. “Craig NEVER asked me to invest and never offered to reconsider anything.”

Craig’s Rep Weighs In

“Craig is deeply disappointed and saddened by Kyle’s abrupt accusations,” a rep for Conover told Page Six in June 2024 after Cooke’s appearance on the “Trading Secrets” podcast. “The truth only hurts one person in this instance, and it’s not Craig. Therefore, he will not comment further on this matter nor be drawn into an unprofessional arena.”

The statement continued: “Craig has learned to blame himself and not others for everything that happens in his life, including the success of his products and companies. He looks forward to continuing to share his life with everyone and thanks all his friends and supporters, whom he views as family.”

The Cameras Were Rolling

Conover exclusively told Us Weekly in September 2024 that his feud with Cooke was captured by the Summer House cameras. “Unfortunately for you, we did film it,” he teased, confirming season 9 highlights their issues. “That has to carry the tag of you have to wait and watch that.”

Despite their tension during summer 2024, Conover explained they had moved forward. “I love Kyle and we have a really fun history and relationship and he’s one of my favorite people on the network,” he revealed. “I’m glad I was able to go out there and you’ll get to see how that all went.”

The Fences Are Mended

“Andy [Cohen] caught me off guard,” Cooke exclusively told Us at Us Weekly + Pluto TV Reality Stars of the Year Party in October 2024, reflecting on his and Conover’s drama.

Cooke explained, “Ultimately, I cherish friendship above everything else and I think that’s why I was hurt. But [Craig and I are] good. We’re good.”

Kim Kardashian is the latest star to pay tribute to the late celebrity hairstylist Jesus Guerrero.

After news of the 34-year-old’s untimely death broke on Saturday, February 22, his passing was confirmed later that day by Guerrero’s sister Gris Guerrero, who set up a GoFundMe page. His cause of death was not stated.

Kardashian, 44, wrote a lengthy message from the heart in his honor, which she shared via her Instagram Story on Monday, February 24. “Our glam fam means the world to us. We work together, vacation and celebrate our lives together!” she wrote in a caption beneath a group photo of the Kardashian-Jenner clan alongside Guerrero and other members of their beauty team, which appeared to have been captured behind the scenes on the set of a promotional shoot for season one of The Kardashians, before the spinoff series aired on Hulu in April 2022.

Kardashian continued: “Our great respect for the art of hair and [makeup] has led us to us meeting some of the kindest souls and make some of our bestest friends. So when one of our glam family members passes away all of our souls are crushed.”

Kylie Jenner and J. Lo’s Celebrity Hair Stylist Jesus Guerrero Dies

Kardashian was undoubtedly speaking for her younger siblings, including Kendall and Kylie Jenner. According to photos shared by the stylist, the latter worked with Guerrero the most frequently and recently, as seen in snaps of Kylie before the 2025 Golden Globes in January.

Kardashian confirmed this in Monday’s statement: “My heart breaks for Kylie and everyone who loved Jesus the way we all did. I’m praying for his family, his loved ones and the whole beauty community who feels this deep loss of one of the most talented and kindest to ever do it!”

She concluded her caption with: “Rest in peace @jesushair” followed by the white dove emoji.

Guerrero’s Instagram reveals not only how long he worked with the Kardashian-Jenner family but also how many memorable beauty moments he created — from Kylie, 27, and her spiked updo at the 2024 CFDA Awards to Kim’s first Skims campaign in 2019 when she modeled waist-length extensions and nude bodysuits in photos that launched her shapewear empire.

Nation also worked with Serena Williams, Demi Moore and Catherine O’Hara. The stylist, whose real name was Graham Cheek, shared a 6-month-old son named Romeo with Tonya Brewer. He died just days after celebrating his first Super Bowl ad, a spot for Michelob Ultra, on February 9.

Nation was represented by The Wall Group, which confirmed his death to industry outlet Behind the Chair.

“Graham was a one-of-a-kind soul who impacted every single person he met,” the agency shared in a statement. “We are honored to have been part of his journey and to have helped him share his artistry with the world. Our hearts are broken and we will miss him dearly.”

“Graham was one of the kindest, most gentle souls in this business! His talent was unmistakable, his ego was illegible and his time with us unforgettable,” Behind the Chair founder and creative director Mary Rector told People.

Nation’s death prompted reactions from many of his celebrity clients. “I can not stop thinking about and missing @grahamnation,” Sara’s sister actress Erin Foster wrote via her Instagram Story on February 19. “He left behind a 6 month old baby. We shared diapers and sleep training tips. “I can’t stop thinking about his partner Tonya and what she must be going through, losing her partner and now raising their son alone.”

Hair stylist Divinity Ray shared her tribute under Nation’s final Instagram post, showing off his work with Marissa Bode.

“10 years of knowing you, from cutting hair in our hometown to witnessing you take LA by storm,” she wrote. “You were never too busy to be thoughtful. You were never too big to smile at everyone. You were the most incomprehensible artist. Enough talent to have the biggest ego but instead so humble and sweet. I always described you as an angel on earth. I just never thought you would leave this soon. Rest in Power, brother 💔 the world lost one of its brightest lights.”
