Sean “Diddy” Combs’ legal team held a press conference outside of court following the trial.
“I want to thank my client Sean Combs for trusting us. Myself and everybody here, this incredible dream team that he put together,” Teny Geragos said on Wednesday, July 2, outside the New York City courthouse. “Without him, we would not be able to do this. He is incredible, and I want to thank him.”
Geragos also expressed her gratitude to the jury for “putting such great care” into the case by showing up “early every single day.” She also thanked the judge and the staff at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, where Diddy, 55, has been held following his September 2024 arrest after having bail rejected four times by Judge Arun Subramanian.
“Despite the terrible conditions at the MDC, I want to thank the good people who work there who ensured that we had a sufficient amount of time to prepare for trial,” she continued. “It is extremely difficult to prepare for a federal case in the conditions at the MDC, and they did everything they could to make that happen.”
Geragos finished up her remarks by maintaining Diddy’s innocence, which they’ve done since taking his case.
“Sean Combs has not sexually assaulted anybody, I’ve been saying this for months,” she said. “We’ve said this with each lawsuit that came out, and today that was proven true.”
Nicole Westmoreland and Brian Steel echoed similar sentiments.
“I want to thank you all for being here and writing truthfully about a man wrongly tried for most of the crimes,” Steel said.
Westmoreland added that Diddy “battled for his freedom” and “for his innocence.”
The press conference ended with Marc Agnifilo, who has been one of Diddy’s main attorneys.
“Today’s a great victory,” Agnifilo said. “It’s a great victory for Sean Combs, it’s a great victory for the jury system.
He added, “We are not nearly done fighting. We are just getting started.”
Diddy was arrested in September 2024 and charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution. The disgraced music mogul denied all the allegations against him and pleaded not guilty to all charges.
“We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” Agnifilo said in a statement at the time. “He is an imperfect person, but he is not a criminal. To his credit Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges. Please reserve your judgment until you have all the facts. These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court.”
Diddy’s trial began in May and, after weeks of testimony, came to an end on Wednesday. After days of deliberation, the jury acquitted Diddy on racketeering and sex trafficking charges. However, the rapper was found guilty on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years total.
After the verdicts were read, Agnifilo asked the judge for Diddy’s immediate release so he could return to his Miami Beach home on Star Island. The judge later ruled that Diddy should remain in custody while awaiting sentencing, which will be decided on October 3.

School Spirits’ season 2 finale left the future of Milo Manheim’s character up in the air — and the actor is weighing in on what the show may look like moving forward.
“I think the first season was kind of like, what happened [to these ghosts]?” Manheim, 24, explained exclusively to Us Weekly while promoting his upcoming film Zombies 4. “Second season it was like, ‘OK, we know what happened, now let’s solve this thing,’ and I think season 3 we’ll just zoom out even more. We’re just going to be like, ‘What the hell is going on?’”
School Spirits premiered on Paramount+ in 2021 and follows high school student Maddie (Peyton List) as she investigates her own mysterious disappearance and alleged death from the afterlife. While on a mission for answers, she discovers a group of teen ghosts haunting the hallways. That includes Manheim’s Wally, an ’80s ghost jock slash golden retriever-type who quickly falls head over heels for Maddie.
While the season 1 finale revealed that Maddie’s human body had been taken over by another spirit, she ended season 2 back in the human realm. Wally, meanwhile, appeared to find the door to peace, although it wasn’t revealed if he walked through.
While speaking with Us, Manheim teased that season 3 will attempt to “crack the code of what’s happening in this world [of Split River]” while answering questions from the previous season.
The show’s executive producers, meanwhile, previously shared that Manheim’s future as Wally was intentionally ambiguous — leaving fans reeling over the potential loss of a fan favorite character.
“We live [for] cliffhangers and to also devastate people!” cocreator Nate Trinrud joked to Us exclusively earlier this year. He also hinted at what Wally’s next chapter might mean for the series: “There’s a lot of questions that come along with that. Like, what does it mean to really lose somebody? But also, do you ever lose anybody?”
Trinrud added that Wally’s next steps are a “big question mark” that will be broached in season 3, noting that other characters have been able to walk the line of multiple realms. “Anything could happen,” he teased.
Manheim is certainly no stranger to playing the undead, as all three of his most recent three characters met their untimely end in one way or another. Manheim faces death by plant as Seymour in the current off Broadway production of Little Shop of Horrors, haunts the halls of his old high school as Wally on School Spirits and plays another football-loving jock, Zed — who also happens to be a zombie — in Disney’s Zombies franchise.
“I don’t know what it is, maybe it’s just because I’m so full of life that I need to be killed,” Manheim joked to Us. “This was never my plan, first of all, but maybe I’ve really tapped into a niche here that Hollywood is short on. But yeah, School Spirits and Zombies I’m a football-playing dead person with a girlfriend whose name kind of sounds like Addison. Madison is her name on [School Spirits].”
Fans will have to wait to see Manheim back as Wally for season 3 of School Spirits, but he’ll be back as Zed in Zombies 4: Dawn on the Vampires later this month. The film will pick up after Zed and Addison’s (Meg Donnelly) first year of college. When the two lovebirds head out for the road trip of a lifetime, they discover the warring words of Sunnyside and Shadyside — and two brand new groups of monsters.
The first Zombies film premiered in 2018 and has since spawned one of the most successful movie franchises for Disney to date (move over, High School Musical!). Manheim and Donnelly have reprised their role for each installment, including lending their voices for the re-animated series. Seven years in, Manheim has learned a lot about playing a leading man.
“I am equally excited now than when I was on Zombies 1, but the excitement then was just like an unreal, I can’t believe I’m here, what is my life? And I think I’ve changed because I’ve really grounded myself and really realized just the impact that we have made with these movies and this franchise,” he told Us. “I guess I’ve taken the reins a little bit. Really tried to put creative input in there and guide this franchise [in] the direction that I believe is important. So I think just stepping up to the plate is how I’ve changed the most.”
Zombies 4: Dawn on the Vampires premieres on Disney Channel Thursday, July 10, at 8 p.m. ET and will be available to stream on Disney+ the following day.
Just because the Love Island USAcast is bound to have sex doesn’t mean they don’t find ways — like secret code words — to get around discussing it on screen.
The dating show originally premiered in the U.K. in 2002 before it expanded worldwide with various spinoffs, including Love Island USA on Peacock. The series follows a different group of singles every season who have to pair off in order to stay in the show’s luxury villa.
The contestants — referred to as Islanders — live in isolation in a villa and are under constant video surveillance. They must be coupled up to remain on the show and stand a chance at receiving the$100,000 prize.
While finding a connection that you want to explore more intimately isn’t out of the question, season 7 of Love Island USA seemed to set some sort of record with the amount of times Islanders were caught hooking up.
From Hannah Fields and Pepe Garcia to Huda Mustafa and Jeremiah Brown, the reality stars have found ways around having to address their sexual encounters for all of America to hear.
“We had a code name for intimacy,” Hannah exclusively told Us Weekly in June. “We would say, ‘How was your journey? What was this journey like?’ Huda [started it when she] said something like, ‘Oh, I had a journey. My journey went all the way.’”
Keep scrolling for a guide of how often the season 7 cast of Love Island USA actually stuck to that code word:

After covertly taking the next step in their relationship, Huda wasn’t good at playing coy the next morning.
“I wish I could tell you what I want to tell you,” Huda teased during a conversation with the girls, who immediately guessed that she had sex. “I won’t give details on when or how but all I will say is it did happen.”
Jeremiah, for his part, declined to “kiss and tell” while on “The Viall Files” podcast in June 2025 — despite viewers already knowing exactly what happened.

The couple’s intimate moment went viral even though they never acknowledged it on the show. After being dumped from the island, Hannah explained how her own “journey” with Pepe played out.
“We had not slept in, like, 24 hours. It had been three hours after we went to bed,” she told Us of the clip. “You kind of forget that you’re on camera. I literally always forgot that I was being recorded and it would dawn on me because I’d just see a camera and I’d be like, ‘Oh s*** I’m being recorded.’ I really didn’t think I remembered until the next day. I was like, ‘Just don’t talk about it. Nobody’s gonna know. Nobody’s gonna know what happened.’ I sit in the bathroom, like, ‘Do you think they caught that? … No.’ So when I watched the episode, I’m like, ‘Oh, I couldn’t have been less discreet.'”
If anyone went through a “journey,” it was Nic and Cierra. From 25 seconds to 30 seconds to 40 seconds, Nic wasn’t proud of how his work in the bedroom was captured on screen.
“I wasn’t expecting it that quickly. From weeks of held up tension, it started flowing,” he admitted to Ace. “It was one of the best 25 seconds of my life. It was so fast. I had to apologize because it was so fast. It was so good but so short.”
Nic later upped the final amount, telling Cierra, “Besides the fact that it was just 30 seconds long, the way that it happened was just natural and beautiful. Usually, I take a lot more time with somebody I like.”
After recoupling later in the season, Nic and Cierra continued to intimately explore their bond as they prepared to close off their connection.
“Did you hear me taking my journey?” Cierra asked Iris who was paired up with TJ Palma. “Well the journey was much longer this time than the first time.”
Cierra elaborated on her encounter with Nic, adding, “And we stopped for food on the way. Hotdogs and hamburgers were ordered. We both had a full course meal. Once we finished eating we ended at a waterfall. It was beautiful.”
Nic gave Ace and Taylor an update about the “best 40 seconds ever” but he admitted it “was still subpar” based on past experiences.
Shakira had the adorable support of her two sons as she embarked on her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour in California.
“Shakira recently spent a delightful few days at the renowned Del Coronado Hotel following the exhilarating kickoff of the California leg of her sold-out tour at Snapdragon Stadium,” a source exclusively tells Us Weekly.
Shakira, 48, kicked off her latest stadium tour in Brazil in February, bringing the shows to the United States last month. In between performances, she enjoyed downtime with sons Sasha, 12, and Milan, 10, at the local California hotel. (The Colombian pop star shares her kids with former partner Gerard Piqué, with whom she split in 2022.)
“Shakira is turning her tour into a family affair. She and her boys, Milan and Sasha, lived it up at the Del Coronado Hotel,” the insider adds to Us. “They hung out by the gorgeous pool, ordering burgers and fries and were very respectful.”
According to the source, Shakira was very attentive toward her two little ones during the getaway.
“Shakira was very sweet and you can tell she’s a great mom,” the source says. “She’s very loving and totally hands-on.”
In addition to bonding at the pool, Shakira also went to one of the Del Coronado Hotel’s restaurants.

“Shakira was super friendly, talking to guests and even posed for a couple selfies with fans,” the eyewitness tells Us. “She was gracious and adorable.”
The Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour is Shakira’s seventh global tour, which she’s playing to sold-out crowds.
“I’ve worked for over a year, polishing every single detail of the show, so this is really an amazing reward,” Shakira told the BBC last month ahead of her Miami concert. “To put together a show of this size, and to make it happen every night, it doesn’t matter if you’re sad or if you had a bad day or if you’re sick or you’re coughing. You just have to do your best and miraculously make it happen.”
She continued, “The adrenaline actually doesn’t let me feel the exhaustion, or how demanding it can be. It carries you through.”
Sasha and Milan even have sweet stage cameos, singing with their mom via prerecorded footage that is shown on large screens in the stadium.
“My heart melts every time I see them on that screen and I hear their little voices,” Shakira gushed to the outlet. “They’re just everything to me. They’re my engine and the reason why I’m alive. So having them every night on stage, it’s just such a precious moment.”
According to Shakira, her kids also want her to put on a perfect show every time.
“When I have a show, they’re kind of stressed out because they want everything to come out perfect for me,” she said to the BBC. “They’re always worried, like, ‘Mom, how did it go? Did you fall? Are you OK?’ I try to show them that there’s no perfect show. It’s OK to make a mistake.”
Lily Allen got real about her experiences with abortions — but couldn’t pinpoint how many she’s had.
“I’d get pregnant all the time, all the time,” Allen, 40, said during the Tuesday, July 1, episode of her “Miss Me?” podcast.
The “Somewhere Only We Know” singer then mused, “Abortions, I’ve had a few, but then again, I can’t remember exactly how many. I think maybe like, I want to say five, four or five.”
Allen’s “Miss Me?” podcast cohost, Miquita Oliver, noted that she’d had “about five, too.” Oliver, 41, felt some relief after she and Allen were able to be so open.
“Lily, I’m so happy I can say that and you can say it and no one came to shoot us down, no judgment,” Oliver added. “We’ve had about the same amount of abortions.”
Allen, who shares Ethel, 12, and Marnie, 11, with her ex-husband, Sam Cooper, proceeded to share one of her past experiences with listeners.
“I remember once getting pregnant and the man paying for my abortion, and me thinking it was so romantic,” Allen said with a laugh, noting her opinions have since changed.
“I don’t think it’s generous or romantic,” she confirmed. “How much is it, like, 500 quid? Kids are a lot more expensive.”
Allen recalled the aforementioned guy not “texting her after” she got the abortion despite paying for it. “Fair [to be honest], I was a f***ing crazy bitch, still am,” she quipped.
Allen revealed that she’s since gotten better at using contraceptives. “I have an IUD now. I think I’m on my third, maybe fourth,” she shared. “I just remember before that was a complete disaster area.”

Allen didn’t give any context as to when she had any of her abortions, but she became a mom for the first time in November 2011 with the birth of daughter Ethel. Her and Cooper’s second daughter, Marnie, was born in January 2013.
Allen and Cooper, 47, were married from 2011 to 2018. The singer moved on with David Harbour, whom she wed in 2020.
Allen sparked split speculation in December 2024 when the Daily Mail reported that she was on the dating app Raya. In February, Harbour, 50, was spotted at the Critics Choice Awards and the Saturday Night Live 50th anniversary special without his wedding ring on, fueling breakup rumors.
Allen hinted at the split that same month during an episode of her podcast, revealing she’d recently been in a treatment program for an unknown reason.
“I just feel very grateful to have been given the time and the space that I needed,” she said in February. “I went into a sort of treatment center for a few weeks, which was great. I did a lot of group therapy and some individual therapy, and I needed some time and space away from everything.”
In April, Harbour was asked about the rumors surrounding his relationship with Allen while speaking with GQ Hype.
“I’m protective of the people and the reality of my life. There’s no use in that form of engaging [with rumors] because it’s all based on hysterical hyperbole,” the Stranger Things actor responded.
Harbour concluded that he didn’t want to encourage a “salacious s***show of humiliation.”
