Rosie O'Donnell and More Stars Who’ve Used Mounjaro for Weight Loss

Rosie O’Donnell surprised fans in May 2025 by revealing a positive update on her weight loss journey — which she credited to using the medication Mounjaro.

The injectable drug (also known as tirzepatide) is similar to Ozempic and Wegovy in that it is used primarily to treat diabetes, but can also be effective in weight loss. According to WebMD, Mounjaro can be classified similarly to Wegovy or Ozempic because all three all contain GLP-1, which assists in weight loss. Side effects can include nausea and diarrhea.

In O’Donnell’s case, she said that she started using Mounjaro to treat her diabetes and her weight loss came as a bonus. Other celebrities have also opened up about losing weight while using Mounjaro — including Mob Wives star Renee Graziano, The View’s Whoopi Goldberg, and Amy Schumer.

Rosie O’Donnell

The former Rosie O’Donnell Show host proudly showed off her recent weight loss via Instagram in May 2025 and directly attributed her positive health news to using the weight loss medication.

In a message captioned with the hashtag “Mounjaro,” she wrote, “I cant believe this is me now.”

O’Donnell first announced to her TikTok followers in March 2025 that she was having success with the medication after her recent move from the U.S. to Ireland.

“I’ve lost more weight,” she announced. “I am on Mounjaro for my diabetes and one of the side effects is you lose weight. But it’s also because I had a chef for over two years in Los Angeles and I don’t have a chef now. It’s me cooking for [my child] Clay and me.”

She went on, “I’m one of those people who always had a weight issue and now that I’m a size large — instead of an XL or a XXL — I find it shocking. I really do. I find it completely shocking.”

During a May 2024 appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, the View moderator said Mounjaro helped her lose the weight of “almost two people.”

“I’m doing that wonderful little shot that works for folks who need some help and it’s been really good for me,” Goldberg reported to host Kelly Clarkson.

Goldberg reflected on the creeping effect that weight gain can have, saying, “You’re living your life and you’re doing what you need to do — and that’s the last thing you’re thinking about because you’ve got other stuff on your mind. When you realize it, you go, ‘Well, damn.’ And everyone says, ‘Well, I thought you knew.’”

Amy Schumer

The comedian shared with her Instagram followers in March 2024 that she was doing well on Mounjaro after having a less positive experience on Wegovy years earlier.

“Three years ago, I tried Wegovy. I was puking, I couldn’t handle it. I don’t know if they’ve changed the formula, whatever,” she said via Instagram. “But anyway, I went on this Telehealth meeting with [virtual clinic] Midi Health, and it was cheap. I wanted to try it myself ‘cause I wanted to recommend it to my friends who are nurses and teachers.”

Schumer explained that, in addition to her use of the weight loss medication, her clinicians put her on “estrogen and progesterone” because she was perimenopausal.

“My hair is fuller, my skin is better, I have more energy, I want to get down more, if you know what I mean. I’m talking about sex,” she joked. “So that’s been great and Mounjaro’s been great.”

She also noted, “And, look, it’s not covered by insurance unless you have diabetes or like severe obesity, which most of the internet thinks I have. But I’m having a really good experience with it and I wanted to keep it real with you about that.”

The “Woman Up” singer revealed on her “Workin’ On It” podcast in April 2025 that both she and husband Sabara started taking Mounjaro after welcoming son Riley in 2021. Trainor said that they went with Mounjaro over other weight-loss medications because they were told it “had less side effects”.

“I also gained some [sympathy] pregnancy weight,” Sabara explained. “We’ve been on this journey for a while and we learned how there are right ways to do it.”

Trainor insisted she felt “no shame” about using weight-loss injections, though she stressed that the couple simultaneously focused on portion control.

“I’ve learned so much about portions,” Trainor noted. “I’m like, ‘Remember how big your stomach is.’ I don’t want to bug [Sabara] and I always do. He’s like, ‘Are you fat-shaming me?’ I’m like, ‘No, babe, I’m looking out for you.’ Our eyes are hungrier than our stomachs. I blame where we live [because] the portion sizes are ridiculous.”

She added, “I learned all these little tricks that changed my life. I literally bought smaller plates ‘cause I’m like, ‘No, you can’t put too much rice on there.’ … I’m obsessed now with the science of when I work out and build muscle, you have to eat protein or else it’s not going to do anything.”

Scott Disick

In February 2025, Disick candidly discussed his weight loss, and his use of Mounjaro, during an episode of The Kardashians. Khloé Kardashian asked Disick directly to clear up rumors after fans questioned whether there was a weight loss drug in his fridge during one scene.

“It shows the Mounjaro? You’re lying!” he declared. “Oh, f*** me running. By the way, I am not embarrassed that I took it! Everyone that has a problem with Mounjaro can suck my d***. And by the way, they can see it now because for a minute, you couldn’t!”

Disick explained that it was “tough living that large,” with Kardashian soon coming to his defense over using a weight loss medication.

“You shouldn’t be [embarrassed]! When I was fat, I would have drank that s***,” she said. “I don’t get the shame in it. You don’t get it because you don’t have these problems but when I was thicker, I took laxatives. I would take anything that anyone was pushing.”

Renee Graziano

The former VH1 reality star credited her 52-pound weight loss, in part, to using Mounjaro after years of struggling with dieting. She mentioned that she’d also started using the “right supplements,” in addition to “doing all the work behind [her] insecurity.”

“I’ve battled self-criticism in the past! Ripped myself down to the ground!!” Graziano recalled in May 2025. “I truly was so sick and tired of my life and my inability to lose weight so I thought I’d eat until I felt better THAT NEVER HAPPENED, I felt like I was constantly falling short—of how I ‘should’ look, feel, and keep up with what society tells us is acceptable.”

She continued, “That’s why, when I see photos that show the real, visible change, my clear eyes and genuine smile, I have to share. I want everyone to know if I can do it, you can do it! It’s all possible!!”

Hailey Bieber Lovingly Supports Husband Justin’s Rare Live Appearance

Hailey Bieber shared her support for her husband Justin Bieber’s return to live music on Friday, May 23.

Hailey, 28, was in attendance when Justin, 28, made an unannounced appearance during Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s Grand National Tour concert at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. Justin joined SZA to perform their hit “Snooze” — and even planted a few kisses on her hand during the performance.

Hailey shared multiple videos from the concert via her Instagram Story, including three separate angles of Justin kissing SZA’s hand. She captioned the photo with an emoji of a face holding back tears and another emoji of a smiling face with hearts.

In another video of the performance, Hailey called Justin and SZA her “two favorite artists.” There have been multiple special guests during the Grand National Tour since it kicked off on April 19, including Lizzo joining SZA on stage the night before Justin’s cameo.

Friday’s appearance at SoFi Stadium marked the first time Justin has played live since a private concert at the Jio World Convention Centre in Mumbai, India in July 2024.

Justin’s rare live performance came days after Hailey marked her and Justin’s son Jack Blues turning nine months old on May 22. The couple welcomed their first child in August 2024.

Everything Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber Have Said About Each Other

A source exclusively told Us Weekly earlier in May that Hailey was standing by Justin despite recent controversies about his finances and run-ins with paparazzi. Justin also made headlines for publicly supporting Chris Brown following Brown’s recent arrest in the U.K.

“Hailey tries to be there for him as much as she can,” an insider told Us. “She is very patient and accommodating and helps him a lot. She is the most supportive wife, and he feels grateful to have her. They have been through a lot, but have been in a good place these last few months.”

A second source close to the Biebers said, “Hailey is a positive, good influence on Justin. She’s been a saving grace for him.”

Hailey opened up to Vogue earlier this month about her “very difficult” postpartum journey, which she insisted was exacerbated by intense speculation about her marriage.

Justin Bieber’s Most Honest Quotes About His Mental Health Struggles

 

“Being postpartum is the most sensitive time I’ve ever gone through in my life, and learning a new version of myself is very difficult,” she said. “And to be doing that all the while going on the internet every day and people being like, ‘They’re getting divorced and they’re this and they’re not happy’: It is such a mindf***. I cannot even begin to explain it. It’s a crazy life to live.”

Hailey credited Justin’s 15 years in the spotlight with helping her deal with the intense “scrutiny” that they both routinely face.

“I’ve learned so much from Justin, really,” she told Vogue. “He’s been doing this literally since he was a child and he has had to face the most scrutiny of any person that I know. He was like, ‘Baby, trust me, I’ve been here before many, many times. You’re not going to win. There is no winning.’”

The couple started dating in 2015, before getting engaged and later tying the knot at a New York City courthouse in 2018. The couple held a wedding reception for family and friends in South Carolina the following year.

Alexa Ray Joel Breaks Silence on Dad Billy Joel’s Health Diagnosis

Alexa Ray Joel offered heartwarming support for her dad Billy Joel following the announcement that he has been diagnosed with a brain disorder.

“We love you and we got you, Pop! I just wanted to thank you all for the beautiful outpouring of love and support amid the recent news of My Father’s health diagnosis,” Alexa Ray, 39, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, May 24. “My Dad is the strongest and most resilient man I’ve ever known… and he’s entirely committed to making a full recovery with ongoing physical-therapy treatments as he continues to regain his strength.”

Alexa Ray quoted her father’s classic 1993 song “Lullabye (Goodnight, My Angel)” while thanking his fans from all over the world for their supportive social media messages.

“The genuine care, empathy, and concern from everyone means so much to him… it means a lot to me, too,” she concluded. “‘Someday We’ll All Be Gone / But Lullabies Go On And On / They Never Die / That’s How You And I Will Be.’ The music continues… ”

Billy Joel Is Releasing His 1st New Song in Nearly 20 Years

The “Piano Man” singer, 76, announced via Instagram on Friday, May 23, that he was cancelling “all scheduled concerts” due to being diagnosed with normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH).

NPH is a “brain disorder in which excess cerebrospinal fluid accumulates in the brain’s ventricles, which are fluid-filled chambers,” according to the Alzheimer’s Association. “As brain ventricles enlarge with the excess CSF, they can disrupt and damage nearby brain tissue, leading to difficulty walking, problems with thinking and reasoning, and loss of bladder control.”

Billy’s team explained via Instagram that NPH has caused “problems with hearing, vision, and balance,” which impacted other recent live performances. His doctors have now recommended that Billy stop performing while he undergoes “specific physical therapy.” (Joel last performed at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut in February.)

“He is grateful for the support from fans during this time and looks forward to the day when he can once again take to the stage,” his representatives said.

Billy added in his own statement, “I’m sincerely sorry to disappoint our audience. Thank you for understanding.”

In total, Billy cancelled 17 concerts that were supposed to take place in both the U.S. and England throughout the rest of the year. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee previously postponed multiple summer stadium concerts in March. At the time, Billy’s team simply said he was dealing with a “medical condition” and that “health must come first,” but stressed that the musician was “expected to make a full recovery.”

“I look forward to getting back on stage and sharing the joy of live music with our amazing fans. Thank you for your understanding.,” the musician said in March.

Last summer, Billy ended his historic run of headlining Madison Square Garden in New York City with his 150th lifetime performance at the venue. He performed his final residency show at Madison Square Garden on July 25, 2024, where he was joined on stage by Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose.

“Everybody in the world knows when you play The Garden, it’s not just New York,” Billy said at the time. “To our audience, I want to thank them for coming to our shows for this long. It’s hard to end, even at 150 lifetime shows. I just want to thank everyone for the wonderful thing that’s happened here.”

Rosie O'Donnell Shows Off Weight Loss: ‘I Can’t Believe This is Me’

Rosie O’Donnell showed off her weight loss following her recent move to Ireland.

The former Rosie O’Donnell Show host, 63, shared a new photo via Instagram on Saturday, May 24, in which she credited the weight loss medication Mounjaro for her new look.

“I cant believe this is me now,” O’Donnell wrote, along with hashtagging the photo with “mounjaro,” “weightloss” and “bodydismorphia.”

Mounjaro is an injectable medication that is used to treat type 2 diabetes and has shown effectiveness in weight loss.

O’Donnell first shared with her social media followers in March that she was taking Mounjaro as part of her diabetes treatment.

 

“I’ve lost more weight. I am on Mounjaro for my diabetes and one of the side effects is you lose weight,” she said. “But it’s also because I had a chef for over two years in Los Angeles and I don’t have a chef now. It’s me cooking for Clay and me.”

She continued, “I’m one of those people who always had a weight issue and now that I’m a size large — instead of an XL or a XXL — I find it shocking. I really do. I find it completely shocking.”

Mob Wives star Renee Graziano recently revealed a 52-pound weight loss that she credited, in part, to using Mounjaro. She added that “right supplements” and “doing all the work behind [her] insecurity” were also responsible for her fitness journey.

Rosie O’Donnell: How I’ve Lost 10 Lbs Since Christmas

“I’ve battled self-criticism in the past! Ripped myself down to the ground!!” Graziano, 57, wrote via Instagram. “I truly was so sick and tired of my life and my inability to lose weight so I thought I’d eat until I felt better THAT NEVER HAPPENED, I felt like I was constantly falling short—of how I ‘should’ look, feel, and keep up with what society tells us is acceptable.”

Graziano went on, “That’s why, when I see photos that show the real, visible change, my clear eyes and genuine smile, I have to share. I want everyone to know if I can do it, you can do it! It’s all possible!!”

Amy Schumer has praised Mounjaro as well, revealing she adjusted more easily to the injectable medication than its competitor medication Wegovy. (According to WebMD, Mounjaro is classified similarly to other drugs such as Wegovy or Ozempic because they all contain GLP-1, which assists in weight loss. Mounjaro is designed to help diabetes patients with weight management, with common side effects including nausea and diarrhea.)

“Three years ago, I tried Wegovy,” Schumer, 43, said in an Instagram video in March. “I was puking, I couldn’t handle it. I don’t know if they’ve changed the formula, whatever. But anyway, I went on this Telehealth meeting with [virtual care clinic] Midi Health, and it was cheap. I wanted to try it myself ‘cause I wanted to recommend it to my friends who are nurses and teachers.”

She added, “They put me on estrogen and progesterone because I realized I was in perimenopause and my symptoms from being perimenopause have disappeared. My hair is fuller, my skin is better, I have more energy, I want to get down more, if you know what I mean. I’m talking about sex. So that’s been great and Mounjaro’s been great.”

Meanwhile, O’Donnell moved from the U.S. to Ireland with her 12-year-old child, Clay, in January. The actress exclusively told Us Weekly in April that the pair were now settled in Dublin.

“There’s a great, great school there. And Clay has done very well. And they were really welcoming,” O’Donnell told Us. “And I love the little town, the little village. It’s in the heart of Dublin, but it’s still a village where you know the name of the grocer and you know the name of the cashiers. People are unbearably kind in a way that shocks me every single day.”

O’Donnell admitted to Us that she was surprised to see Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi leave the U.S. as well, to resettle in the English countryside.

“I’ve never really known Ellen to say anything political in her life, so I was surprised to read that she left because of President Trump. Like, that shocked me, actually,” O’Donnell told Us. “I’ve been a political person my whole life, not better or worse, it’s just a different way to be in the world. I was very clear about the reason why I was leaving, and I don’t think it came as a surprise to anyone. We’re not really in each other’s worlds, and it’s been kind of awkward but you know what? I wish her the best. I wish that she has peace and love in her life and that she is OK.”

O’Donnell’s fans will next see her in season three of Sex and the City sequel show And Just Like That…, which premieres on Max Thursday, May 29, and new episodes drop weekly.

Diddy’s Memorial Day Weekend Menu and Activities Revealed: Report

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ Memorial Day Weekend menu and activities schedule in jail have reportedly been revealed.

Diddy, 55, and the inmates of Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center will be able to dine on festive treats and play basketball during the holiday weekend, according to TMZ.

The website reports that the menu for this weekend includes a selection of fruit and cereal for breakfast, while inmates can choose between barbecued chicken, macaroni and cheese, mixed vegetables and a mysterious “holiday dessert” for lunch. At dinnertime, Diddy can indulge in chicken and rice — or tofu if he prefers— as well as pinto beans, canned corn and whole wheat bread.

When the MDC inmates aren’t busy dining, there is reportedly a set of activities they will be able to enjoy. The detention center allows inmates to play a selection of board games, dominoes or spades, or if they’d prefer to be a bit more physically active, they can take part in three-on-three basketball games.

Every Celebrity Mentioned During the Diddy Trial: Kanye West and More

Since his arrest in September 2024, Diddy has been held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. His four requests for bail were denied by Judge Arun Subramanian.

Diddy was arrested in September 2024 and charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution. He pleaded not guilty to all charges and has denied all of the allegations against him.

“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,” Diddy’s attorney Marc 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.”

The trial began in Manhattan federal court on May 12 and made headlines with explosive testimony from Diddy’s ex-girlfriend Cassie. During four days of intense testimony, Cassie (real name Casandra Ventura) alleged that she endured physical, emotional and sexual abuse during her on-off 11-year relationship with the embattled mogul.

The second week of the trial included other major bombshells, including Cassie’s ex-boyfriend Kid Cudi comparing Diddy’s behavior to “a Marvel supervillain” during an alleged confrontation between the two men at Soho House in Los Angeles. Cassie’s mother, Regina Ventura, testified on Tuesday, May 20, she took out a $20,000 home equity loan in order to satisfy an alleged blackmail demand from Diddy. (Diddy has denied all allegations of wrongdoing.)

Diddy 'Trying to Stay Positive' for 1st Christmas Behind Bars: Details

Because of the Memorial Day holiday, the trial will begin its third week on Tuesday, May 27, where Diddy’s former assistant, Capricorn Clark, is expected on the witness stand.

Away from the courtroom, Diddy’s twin daughters D’Lila and Jessie, 18, graduated from Sierra Canyon High School in California this past week. Videos from their social media show their brother Justin Dior Combs presenting his sisters with diamond necklaces in honor of their special day. (Diddy has seven children — he shared D’Lila and Jessie with late partner Kim Porter and Justin was born during his relationship with fashion designer Misa Hylton.)

Jesse Williams Argues He Doesn’t Need to Notify Ex of Their Child’s Med Care

Jesse Williams argued in new court documents that he doesn’t need to notify his ex-wife Aryn Drake-Lee about any medical care their two children may obtain.

The former Grey’s Anatomy star, 43, was awarded full custody of their children’s healthcare in March, though Drake-Lee, 43, has since challenged that California court ruling as a “serious infringement on her parental rights.”

Under the ruling, Williams is not obligated to notify Drake-Lee about their children’s upcoming medical visits, though he is required to inform his ex-wife once treatments, such as orthodontic visits, have taken place.

Us Weekly confirmed earlier this month that Williams accused Drake-Lee of violating the court’s restrictions by “threatening” their 11-year-old daughter Sadie’s orthodontist. The actor claims his ex promised to file a lawsuit if the doctor “touches the children.”

Hollywood's Messiest Custody Battles: Brangelina, Usher and Tameka and More

Us has obtained new court documents filed on Friday, May 23, in which Drake-Lee requests “the immediate disqualification” of Williams’ attorneys on the grounds of “egregious misconduct by counsel that amounts to fraud upon the court, the systemic use of hearsay in place of any admissible or substantiated evidence, and repeated, escalating violations of [Drake-Lee’s] constitutional rights to due process throughout these proceedings.”

Drake-Lee maintained that she was not given the proper chance to respond to Williams’ request for medical custody in court, thus denying her “a meaningful opportunity to be heard and to assert her parental and legal rights.”

Her attorneys are additionally seeking to overturn the court’s April ruling because they say Drake-Lee was not given “adequate notice or time” to address the request.

Williams responded to Drake-Lee’s latest court filings by reasserting that he was given “sole right to obtain orthodontic care for Sadie without notification to Aryn,” but that he would “provide notification” to his ex-wife after any orthodontic or medical care was completed.

“Aryn is seeking an order to disqualify Jesse’s counsel and vacate Court orders apparently based upon what she claims is hearsay evidence. There is no emergency, no irreparable harm, and no immediate danger to justify Aryn’s requests on an ex parte [one party] basis,” his legal team wrote in new court documents, also obtained by Us.

Williams’ lawyers additionally argued: “Aryn is apparently claiming among other things that the Court’s orders were based upon ‘hearsay’ and should therefore be vacated. It is unclear what hearsay evidence, if any, Aryn is referring to. Notwithstanding, there is no irreparable harm, immediate danger, or any other statutory basis to substantiate Aryn’s emergency requests. Aryn does not present any credible evidence to show that the children will suffer irreparable harm and immediate danger if Aryn’s ex parte [single party] requests are not granted.”

Jesse Williams Feels a 'Duty' to Highlight 'All Things Black' and Positive

The former couple’s next custody hearing was originally set for May 29, but Williams’ lawyer has requested it be delayed until July 10 due to scheduling issues.

Williams and Drake-Lee were married from 2012 to 2017. After their split, the pair engaged in a lengthy divorce and custody battle that was finalized in October 2020.

The actor initially requested to alter their child custody agreement in September 2024 in favor of equal joint physical custody and more frequent visitation periods.

Billy Ray Cyrus and Elizabeth Hurley Turn Red Carpet Debut Into Family Affair

New couple Billy Ray Cyrus and Elizabeth Hurley have officially made their red carpet debut — and they weren’t alone.

The country singer, 63, and actress, 59, walked their first red carpet as a couple while attending the “Orizzonti | Rosso” Exhibition Opening Dinner at the Palazzo Barberini in Rome, Italy, on Saturday, May 24.

Cyrus wore his now-signature locks down and underneath a black hat, along with a matching black shirt, jacket and pants. Hurley stunned in a pink gown featuring a plunging neckline and dramatic cape.

The pair, who announced their relationship via a shared Instagram post on April 20, were joined by Hurley’s son, Damian, who wore a striking red suit with a dramatically unbuttoned black shirt underneath. (Hurley shared the 23-year-old male model and actor with her ex, Steve Bing, who died by suicide in 2020 at age 55.)

How Billy Ray Cyrus and Elizabeth Hurley Connected on an Emotional Level

On April 24, Cyrus was asked if his surprising relationship with the Austin Powers star was genuine.

“She’s a great human being,” he replied while appearing on Apple Music Country’s The Ty Bentli Show. “If all we were [was] the friends that we are… I would take that. She’s so impressively brilliant.”

A source exclusively told Us Weekly that since debuting their relationship, the pair “are enjoying life together,” adding that they “wanted to make it public” and “have nothing to hide.”

A second insider told Us that the pair had “been dating for about four months” prior to their announcement. (The pair first met on the set of the 2022 holiday film Christmas in Paradise.)

Elizabeth Hurley is Ready to Introduce Billy Ray Cyrus to Her Family

“Liz’s friends have known about it for a while,” another insider added. “It’s not a new thing. She had sworn them to secrecy, and they didn’t tell anyone outside her tight circle.”

A source close to Cyrus also revealed to Us that “they’ve been friends for years, but it turned romantic recently. Things are going well.”

Cyrus revealed how the pair reconnected after previously working together, saying that Hurley reached out to him in 2024 via text.

“Hey, it looks like life might be a little bit tough and just wanted you to know…you got a friend in your corner,” she wrote.

Cyrus is coming off a dramatic split from his ex Firerose. The pair finalized their divorce in August 2024 and have each accused the other of verbal and emotional abuse, which they both deny. Cyrus is also contending with allegedly strained relationships with some of his children, Brandi, Trace, Miley, Braison and Noah, whom he shares with ex-wife Tish Cyrus. (He is also dad to Christopher Cody, who he shares with ex-girlfriend Kristen Luckey.)

Elizabeth Hurley Gushes About ‘Surprising’ Romance With Billy Ray Cyrus

A source close to Cyrus told Us that the singer and actress have “both been through a lot in life and have bonded over life experiences,” adding that, “Liz is a very compassionate person, which Billy Ray adores.”

Damian has been supportive of his mother’s new relationship with the country singer, even going so far as to publicly comment on their PDA-filled Instagram posts.

Jussie Smollett Settles Civil Lawsuit, Donates $60K While Denying Any Wrong

Jussie Smollett is maintaining his innocence while settling his civil lawsuit stemming from his alleged 2019 attack hoax.

“Over six years ago, after it was reported I had been jumped, City Officials in Chicago set out to convince the public that I willfully set an assault against myself. This false narrative has left a stain on my character that will not soon disappear,” Smollett, 42, wrote in a statement shared via Instagram on Friday, May 23. “These officials wanted my money and wanted my confession for something I did not do. Today, it should be clear…They have received neither.”

He continued, “The decision to settle the civil lawsuit was not the most difficult one to make. After repeatedly refusing to pay the City, I was presented with an opportunity to make a charitable donation in exchange for the case being dismissed. Despite what happened there politically, Chicago was my home for over 5 years and the people became my family. Therefore, making a donation to benefit Chicago communities that are too often neglected by those in power will always be something I support.”

The Empire star went on to reveal that he had made a $50,000 donation to the Building Brighter Futures Center for the Arts, a foundation that supports underprivileged youth.

Jussie Smollett Reportedly Checks Into Rehab After Jail Release

“This organization was my choosing and I’m comforted that there will be at least one winner from this experience,” he continued in the statement. Smollett also shared that he donated an additional $10,000 to the Chicago Torture Justice Center “who provides resources to communities healing from the violence of the Chicago Police Department.”

The Chicago Torture Justice Center confirmed the actor’s donation in an Instagram post on Friday.

“This generous donation from Mr. Smollett is so meaningful and deeply impactful as we celebrate and honor the 10th anniversary of the historic Reparations Ordinance in Chicago,” the post read in part. “This 10th anniversary offers us a moment of reflection on what is possible when we stand together and imagine a better future for our communities. A world that values healing and repair, instead of punishment and incarceration.”

The post concluded, “Again, we are so grateful to Mr. Smollett and every donor who supports this necessary work.”

Smollett reported that he had been a victim of an alleged hate crime in January 2019, claiming that two men confronted him with racial and homophobic slurs before wrapping a rope around his neck and pouring bleach on him.

Police and city officials, however, claimed the actor was behind the hoax hate crime, going on to accuse him of submitting a false police report and claiming he knew his attackers, brothers Olabingo and Abimbola Osundairo, who alleged they were paid by Smollett to stage the attack. The city sued the actor for $130,000 related to the police investigation into the alleged attack. Smolett denied the claims and countersued.

Jussie Smollett's Conviction for 2019 Alleged Hoax Overturned in Appeal

Smollett was found guilty on five counts of felony disorderly conduct in December 2021 and sentenced to 150 days in jail and 30 months probation in March 2022. Two years later, in November 2024, the Illinois Supreme Court overturned the conviction, citing prosecutorial issues.

In his Saturday statement, Smollett maintained his innocence, writing that while he “was exonerated by the Illinois Supreme Court in a[n] unanimous decision and the civil case will now be dismissed, I’m aware that it will not change everyone’s mind about me or the attack I experienced.”

“However, despite arduous and expensive attempts to punish me, I am innocent in the eyes of God and our criminal justice system,” the statement continued. “What I have to do now is move forward. I will continue creating my art, fighting passionately for causes I hold dear and defending my integrity and family name with truth.”

He concluded by thanking his supporters over the years, saying that their “prayers and belief in me mean more than words can properly express.”

Meghan Markle Is Just Like Us: Duchess Flies Commercial on American Airlines

Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, has no problem flying commercial.

According to a woman by the name of @ninavidavlogs on TikTok, Meghan recently boarded an American Airlines flight she was working on and left the crew a handwritten letter thanking them for their attention and service.

The Duchess is “so beautiful in person,” Nina said in the video, shared on Thursday, May 22. “She was so sweet. She wrote us a little handwritten note back. So we wrote her note that said, ‘It’s a pleasure of serving you. We love you real bad.’”

“And she wrote this note back that says, ‘Dear AA Girlies, thank you for the love, hospitality, and handwritten note. You know me well,’” the woman continued.

She went on to add that the Duchess of Sussex ended her personalized note with the words: “Forever Meghan.”

The Meghan Markle Debate: Why She's So Polarizing — And Can She Ever Win?  

“You know, I can barely read this cursive, but look at this handwriting: it’s giving rich. It’s giving expensive. It’s giving princess,” she explained. “She also said she loved my nails and the captain on my last flight said they were intense. So, sir, it doesn’t matter what you think. The Queen says she likes them.”

In addition to flying among the common folk, Meghan, 43, has been promoting her “Confessions of a Female Founder” podcast. She was joined on the Tuesday, Mat 20, episode of her the podcast by her former stylist-turned-CEO of hair and beauty brand Kitsch, Cassandra Morales Thurswell. During the episode, the two reminisced about the former actress’ past career.

“I said, ‘Cassie, can you help make this stylish and give me a vibe?’ To which you said, ‘Yes,’” Meghan recalled of her time going to auditions for various roles. Thurswell remembered, “I had no idea what I was doing, but I really enjoyed our time together — it was so fun.”

“This is pre-Suits for me,” Meghan explained. “This is really early days when I was auditioning. And I just remember literally going through things, and you think, ‘OK, here are a couple staples that you need.’ This is important because it speaks to … you talk about not having a strategy, but always hustling. And being able to say, ‘OK, well, I don’t necessarily know how to do this, but I’m gonna figure out a way to be good at it.’”

Meghan Markle Stopped Watching 'Housewives' Because of 'Drama' in Her Life

One of Thurswell’s choices even helped Meghan out. “You called me and said, ‘I just found the best pair of black patent leather Louboutin wedge flats and they are $200,’” Meghan shared. “I remember going, ‘I cannot,’ and you were like, ‘I promise you, you are going to wear them.’ And of course, I wore those shoes until the red wore out. I wore those shoes on my final audition for Suits when I booked the part.”

Revisiting the Most Shocking ‘Love Is Blind’ Breakups After the Reunions

Not every Love Is Blind couple is built to last.

After finding love and getting married during season 3, Colleen Reed and Matt Bolton announced their breakup in May 2025 after four years together.

“We’ve been separated for some time now and have [done] our best to work through everything privately and with care,” Colleen and Matt wrote in a joint Instagram statement. “This was an incredibly difficult decision, not one we made lightly. It came with a lot of thought and it’s been an emotional process for both of us.”

Weeks earlier, Colleen exclusively told Us Weekly that she and Matt dealt with “so many challenges” in their marriage.

“You have your own everyday challenges that you go through in a relationship and a marriage,” Colleen told Us in April 2025. “With everything, it’s definitely a pressure cooker, so you just have to be strong with yourself and with your relationship.”

Colleen and Matt are not the only Love Is Blind couple whose relationship fell apart after leaving both the pod experiment and the reunion hand-in-hand. Keep scrolling for more:

Ashley and Tyler got married during season 7 after overcoming his secret confession that he fathered three children via sperm donation. She announced their separation in January 2025, filing for divorce the following May.
“He should have never went on the show,” Ashley claimed of her now-ex on the “What’s the Reality?” podcast in May 2025, alleging that Tyler “presented” himself as being ready to tie the knot when the opposite was seemingly true. “This was a mind[f***] for me, big time, trying to rationalize how he slipped through the cracks. He presented himself as that man during filming, to the point that everybody loved him. He’s very charismatic … [and] he seemed like he was ready for an honest marriage.”
Tyler, meanwhile, said in a social media statement that he respected “Ashley’s decision” to end their marriage.
“I respect Ashley’s decision to move forward in a way that prioritizes her peace and happiness,” he wrote. “Ashley is an incredible woman, and I have nothing but admiration and gratitude for the love and support she has given me. I ask for kindness and understanding as we both move forward separately, focusing on healing and growth.”

In their May 2025 statement, the ballet dancer and Matt reflected on the “emotional process” of breaking up.
“We met in the most unique and unexpected way, and we’ll always be grateful for the love and memories we’ve shared,” the statement read. “There’s not one thing we would change and we continue to have deep respect and care for one another. Thank you to everyone who has supported us. We kindly ask for compassion as we navigate this transition."

After appearing on season 2, Danielle filed for divorce in August 2022, just two months after the pair celebrated their first wedding anniversary. She later cited that they had personality “incompatibilities.” Months later, Nick told Us that they were no longer in touch.
“We’re still going through it,” Nick told Us in October 2022. “I’m doing OK. I’m not gonna lie and say, ‘Oh, it’s easy,’ or, ‘I’m doing great,’ but I’m doing OK. Losing a relationship that was so meaningful and with someone that you deeply love and care for is never gonna be easy.”
He added, “For my own mental health and healing, I had to create a boundary with her that I’m not engaging anymore. I’m choosing to leave the past behind me and focus on all the stuff I have going on. I don’t wanna live in the past. I don’t want to be in any kind of position where I’m having to defend myself.”
They reunited the next year for an episode of Nick’s “Eyes Wide Open” podcast, demonstrating that they can now be cordial.

Jarrette and Iyanna also broke up in August 2022 after appearing on season 2 of Love Is Blind.
“Divorce really is like a grief and as much as people laugh at how long we were married, I think my expectations made it real. My hope made it real, my effort made it real, my tears made it real,” Iyanna captioned a TikTok video in November 2022, sharing footage of herself in tears after finalizing their divorce. “So, I’m crying for the girl that I was at the beginning of this marriage, when I was so hopeful and had less baggage and I was optimistic and I was healed. I’m crying for that marriage that I thought could work.”
She further claimed that “s*** hit the wall” after the cameras cut.

While SK turned Raven down at the altar during season 3, they did get back together. After a few months of dating long distance while SK was in graduate school, they broke up when Raven claimed that her then-boyfriend had been unfaithful.
“There were definitely a lot of moments when I had a very unsettled feeling,” Raven told Us in February 2023. “I don’t know if necessarily they were red flags, but I was ignoring things that I shouldn’t have. I was like, ‘Hmm, something isn’t right here.’ And instead of using my voice and communicating with my partner, I just kind of was like, ‘Oh, I don’t wanna stir up any conflict.’ In the end, it really didn’t serve me. So now I know, like, I need to listen to myself.”
SK, meanwhile, denied that he cheated on Raven and stressed that he hooked up with another woman after he split from the fitness trainer.

After Jackie called off her season 4 engagement to Marshall Glaze, she started seeing fellow contestant Josh. After a year of dating, they broke up due to unknown circumstances.
"I’m still sick about it. I love that man,” Jackie said during a September 2023 TikTok livestream. “I was like, ‘Damn, I had all these life plans with you and then you just don’t even care.’ And I’m like, ‘That’s crazy.’ … I tried doing everything I could and what’s crazy is looking back on these messages I look like a begging a** bitch and I never beg no one to be with me.”

After a pod love triangle with Sarah Ann and Laura Dadisman, Jeramey opted to propose to Laura sight unseen during season 6. Their engagement fizzled before their would-be wedding day after she claimed that Jeramey spent all night at Sarah Ann’s house. He denied the claims, but later did start dating Sarah Ann. They broke up a year later.
“This is in no way one person’s fault. It’s mutual in the aspect that we both contributed to the issues in our relationship,” she said in a September 2024 Instagram video. “We go about things so differently and it’s wild because I never really realized those things until after we were faced with so much adversity and all of the hate came in.”
She continued, "I had someone ask if it ended amicably, and no it wasn’t, if you want me to be blatantly honest. It was ugly [and] it ended really ugly. It’s important to note that Jeramey and I fought really hard for our relationship. We both wanted it to work.”

Revisit Katie Couric’s Family Tragedy Amid Sheinelle Jones’ Husband’s Death

Katie Couric understands the pain that Today cohost Sheinelle Jones is enduring following the death of her husband, Uche Ojeh.

“With profound sadness, we share this morning that Uche Ojeh, the husband of our dear friend and Today cohost Sheinelle Jones has passed away after a courageous battle with an aggressive form of brain cancer called glioblastoma,” Savannah Guthrie announced on the show on May 23. “There are no words for the pain that we feel for Sheinelle and their three young children. Uche was an incredible person. We all loved him.” (The couple shared son Kayin, 15, and twins Clara and Uche, 12.)

Couric, who cohosted Today from 1991 to 2006, also lost her first husband, Jay Monahan, to cancer in the late 1990s. (Couric and Mohahan married in 1989 and went on to welcome two daughters, Carrie and Ellie, before his death at the age of 42.)

“I did everything I could to keep Jay alive,” Couric wrote in her memoir Going There. “Looking back, I wish I had done a better job helping him die.”

In the aftermath of Jones’ loss and as Couric and more current and former Today hosts and anchors give their heartfelt well wishes and support, here’s a look back at Couric’s own family tragedy and how she found a way to turn her pain into power.

Her first husband Jay Monahan was diagnosed in 1997

Monahan was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer in April 1997. Couric opened up about the months that followed in an essay for Option B, an organization that provides practical support for people who have suffered a loss, in November 2018.

“Nearly twenty years later, when I think of that Thanksgiving, it makes me cry. My healthy, handsome, athletic husband—the college football and lacrosse player—had become thin and gaunt, but was still impeccably dressed, with a tweed sports coat beneath a quilted Barbour jacket and brown leather lace-up shoes,” Couric wrote at the time.

In an interview with People published in 2021, Couric looked back on her first husband’s bravery as he faced the outcome of his diagnosis head-on.

“I was so worried about letting go of hope, because I didn’t want Jay to spend whatever time he had left just waiting to die,” she said. “I think it takes extraordinary courage to be able to face death, and I think I was too scared, honestly.”

She used her husband’s passing to help others

Couric established the National Colorectal Cancer Research Alliance in 2000, two years after Monahan’s death. The organization has raised at least $800 million for cancer research since it was founded.

As a host on the Today show, Couric opted to air her own colonoscopy to shed light on the importance of the procedure — an act that resulted in a 20% increase in adults undergoing their own.

Couric said her daughters were surprised when she and second husband Molner got engaged in 2013. “I think they were a little [like] ‘Wow,’ because it’s been the three of us for so long,” Couric explained to Access Hollywood.

“They really think the world of John,” she also shared. “He loves them and so I think it’s all good and I think it’s going to be a while. And I’m focused on Carrie right now and her senior year of high school.”

Couric’s first grandchild was born March 2024 and named after Monahan.

“John Albert Dobrosky was born on his due date, Saturday, March 23rd at 8:23 am, just shy of seven pounds,” Couric captioned Instagram hospital pics of daughter Ellie, and her husband, Mark Dobrosky, holding their newborn. “He will be called Jay in honor of his maternal grandfather.”

In March 2025 she told Us Weekly, “When Ellie gets married or has a baby, or Carrie is going to get her PhD this fall, you know, I always think of how proud he would be of them. So, we think about him a lot.”

Baby Jay’s name was something that came as a surprise to Couric. “I was pulling for Katie. We didn’t know whether she was having a boy or a girl,” the TV personality joked. “I think [Ellie] was thinking of Jay, but it was a surprise. And his name is John Albert — Albert after Mark’s grandfather and Jay after Ellie’s dad. So, it’s a very meaningful and special name. And he’s super cute, obviously.”

Couric was diagnosed with breast cancer in September 2022, sending her on her own cancer journey and adding another layer to her ongoing cancer research and treatment advocacy.

“June 21, 2022, was the first day of summer, my 8th wedding anniversary, and the day I found out I had breast cancer,” she wrote in an essay for her Katie Couric Media website in September 2022.

A month later, Couric revealed she was feeling “just fine” following the news.

“I just feel super lucky that it was diagnosed when it was, that I went, even though I was late, that I went when I did,” she explained, crediting her radiologist with helping her figure out what to do right away. “I was pretty stunned, and I think those words — ‘it’s cancerous’ or ‘you have cancer’ — do stop you in their tracks, but she told me it was treatable. We needed to have a plan.”

Couric shared an update in 2023 and announced she was cancer-free. She told People, “I was very fortunate. My cancer was caught very, very early when it’s most treatable, and if I can just be an advertisement for people to get screened, to get their mammography done, to talk to their doctors, and if they have dense breasts, to get additional screening.”

Celebrities Are Obsessed With Jelly Flats — We Found 9 Styles Starting at $15

We know what you’re thinking: jelly flats? In 2025? But the truth is, they’re back — and weirdly enough, they look better than ever. Celebs have been slipping into them with everything from slouchy trousers to floaty sundresses, proving that these throwback shoes can actually feel fresh and even chic with the right styling.

The catch? Jelly flats aren’t exactly heatwave-friendly. Since they’re made from plastic (or at least plastic-adjacent), you’ve got a small-but-glorious window to wear them before temps hit “standing-on-the-surface-of-the-sun” levels. So now — when it’s warm but not yet gross out — is the sweet spot. They’re breathable(ish), playful and add a pop of personality to outfits that otherwise feel like rinse-and-repeat summer staples.

So if you’re even thinking about snagging a pair, the time is officially now. Ahead, chic styles from $15.

9 Stylish Jelly Flats Starting At $15

1. Playground Princess: With a closed-toe lattice design that keeps your toes protected but still lets your feet breathe, this stye is like the adult version of your childhood faves. At just $20, they’re a low-stakes way to dip back into the jelly trend without overthinking it.

2. Time Traveler: This grown-up Mary Jane takes the nostalgia up a notch with a chic square toe, subtle buckle and cork footbed for actual all-day comfort. It’s like your childhood school shoes, but make it stylish.

3. Sock Trick: These ankle-hugging jelly flats are the closest thing to wearing socks. The slip-on style and round toe make them easy, breezy, and kinda artsy.

4. Cage Match: This isn’t your average dad sandal. The caged toe and buckle strap add structure, while the PVC keeps things light and water-friendly. Think: fisherman chic, but make it 2025.

5. ’90s Dean: A preppy loafer meets a ‘90s jelly revival in this geometric cutout flat that somehow feels both nostalgic and totally modern. It’s quirky, cool and definitely not what your boss would expect on Casual Friday.

15 Jelly Sandals That Prove the Summer Style Isn't Going Anywhere

6. Beach Bum Slip-On: These breathable mesh jelly mules are perfect for beach days, grocery runs or just not wanting to deal with straps. Bonus: the padded footbed makes them feel more like house shoes than summer sandals.

7. The Sparkle Stealth: They’ve got a slight heel for that polished lift, but the real charm is how sparkly these shoes look without veering into gaudy territory.

8. PVC Picasso: Like wearable sculpture, these lightweight flats feature a lacy PVC upper that’s actually fruit-scented (yes, really). They’re water-resistant and shockingly comfy, thanks to that cushy sole.

9. Cherry Pop: Bright cherry red with a bold T-strap, these bold flats are not for the faint of heart — but if you want your jelly sandals to do the talking, they’ve got plenty to say.

Danica Patrick Alleges Ex Aaron Rodgers Was 'Emotionally Abusive'

Danica Patrick claims that the end of her relationship with NFL star Aaron Rodgers “wore [her] down to nothing.”

“It was sudden [and] it felt like it was my life,” Patrick, 43, said on the Wednesday, May 21, episode of “The Sage Steele Show” podcast, going on to describe her break up with the former Green Bay Packers athlete as the most painful thing she had ever experienced.

“You know, when you live with somebody and it’s, like, your whole life,” she continued. “It’s your dentist appointment, it’s your hairdo, it’s your clothes, it’s your mailing address. It’s, like, everything.”

The retired NASCAR driver went on to allege that the “nature of the relationship was emotionally abusive,” which she claimed “wore [her] down to nothing.”

Let's Revisit 'The Bachelorette' Scene Aaron Rodgers Is Still So Mad About

Someone that people could never imagine that I would lack any confidence or belief in the simple things about who I am,” she claimed. “Yeah, everything was down to bits.”

Patrick and Rodgers dated from 2018 to 2020. Patrick’s rep confirmed to Us that they were “no longer together” after she unfollowed the NFL star on social media.

Rodgers has never publicly discussed the end of their two-year relationship at length, nor responded to Patrick’s abuse allegations. Us Weekly has reached out for comment.

“He leaves a trail of blood. I don’t think I’m saying too much earth-shattering stuff after there’s been enough out there,” Patrick quipped on Wednesday’s episode. “[The breakup] gave me the greatest gift, which was myself. I was, like, ‘Wow.’ It gave me the greatest gift of how much I needed to show up for myself and take care of myself.”

During her podcast interview, Patrick further admitted that she had ignored signs of the alleged abuse at the time.

Shailene Woodley: My Life Was 'S--tty' After Calling Off Aaron Engagement

“I would say, ‘I’m built for hard things. I can handle hard things,’ and so, I just saw it as a hard thing,” Patrick said. “My nature is to try harder and to do more, and I was like, ‘What if I don’t do it for the right person? What if I just get a stick up my a** about this and get too proud?’”

According to Patrick, she “wished [she] would have tried” to leave the situation earlier.

“I don’t have shame and I don’t have regret because I know that everything leads to the next thing,” she added. “It’s all part of the path of learning the lessons and becoming who you are again. It’s not that you’re not going to go through hard times again, but learn how to get through them quicker [and] learn how to get through them more peacefully.”

Patrick later moved on with Carter Comstock before they split in 2022 after nearly one year together.

“I’m like, ‘Is my judgment the best?’ I don’t know,” Patrick exclusively joked to Us Weekly in May 2022, referring to the split. “I think that you just have to follow your heart and trust your intuition.”

ESPN Anchor Thinks Taylor Swift Will Be at More Games Than Aaron Rodgers

She continued, “I think that’s something that increasingly over time, I’m doing a better job of. So just trust that intuition, look for … like right, if there are red flags at the beginning, like trust that [and] don’t just brush it off. I think those are the things that I’m beginning to realize are really critical. … I have no doubt that it’ll come along and [at the] perfect timing.”

Rodgers, for his part, was briefly engaged to actress Shailene Woodley after he and Patrick went their separate ways. Their on-off relationship ended for good in 2022, before he found love again with a currently unidentified partner.

“I’m in a different phase of my life,” Rodgers said on the Pat McAfee Show last month. “I’m 41 years old. I’m in a serious relationship. I have off-the-field stuff going on that requires my attention. I have personal commitments not knowing what my future was going to look like after last year that are important to me.”

Rodgers is an NFL free agent who has not yet formally signed with a new team ahead of the 2025-2026 season.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Spotted on Low-Key Date in Florida

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce reemerged from their hiatus from the spotlight for a low-key date in Florida!!! — three exclamation points obviously required.

Swift and Kelce, both 35, were spotted having dinner at Harry’s restaurant in West Palm Beach on Friday, May 23, according to photos obtained by TMZ. The pop star wore an off-the-shoulder floral sundress with a black handbag, while Kelce opted for a leaf-printed button-down, khaki pants and a black baseball cap.

According to the outlet, Swift and Kelce were seen holding hands as they entered the establishment but reportedly kept the PDA to a minimum.

Kelce, a tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, recently relocated to the Sunshine State — temporarily — to start training for the upcoming 2025-2026 NFL season. He’s been renting a $20 million abode in Boca Raton, which is approximately 25 miles from downtown West Palm.

Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce Spotted on Outing After Months in Privacy

Swift, for her part, has been flying under the radar since ending her history-making Eras Tour and cheering on Kelce in the 2025 Super Bowl in February. (The Chiefs ultimately lost to the Philadelphia Eagles.)

“Taylor and Travis are doing great, and they’re still very much together and in love,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly in a cover story last month. “They’re just taking a break from the public eye.”

In addition to enjoying their well-earned downtime, Swift and Kelce stepped out for a handful of vacations in the likes of New York, Montana and Utah.

“Travis wants to take [a breather] from the public eye,” a second source told Us in April. “He was working too much last year, and he didn’t play as well as he wanted. He wants to have a good season and not have the focus be on his relationship with Taylor.”

How Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Are Spending 'Precious' Hiatus: Sources

Kelce has been dating the Grammy winner since summer 2023, shortly after he called her out on his “New Heights” podcast for not wanting to meet when he went to her Eras Tour concert in Kansas City. After hearing Kelce’s podcast pleas, Swift reached out, and the rest of their love story is history.

“We actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I’m grateful for, because we got to get to know each other,” she told TIME in a December 2023 profile, addressing her first appearance at his game the previous September. “By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple. I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date.”

Swift kept stepping out at many of Kelce’s games, including back-to-back Super Bowls, all of which often stole attention and elicited criticism from football fans. No matter what, Swift has shaken off the haters.

“I don’t know how they know what suite I’m in,” she added to TIME. “I don’t know if I’m being shown 17 times or once. “I’m just there to support Travis. I have no awareness of if I’m being shown too much and pissing off a few dads, Brads, and Chads.”

Kelce is equally proud of Swift, attending many of her Eras concerts and even organizing a post-tour party in December 2024.

Man v. Food's Adam Richman Ready to 'Rebuild' After Mysterious 2nd Surgery

Beloved food show host Adam Richman is giving fans an update following a mysterious second operation.

“I’m home, and grateful to have made it through,” the Man v. Food host wrote in an update to an original Instagram post shared on Friday, May 23. “Feeling quite rough, but that’s to be expected. Looking to use this summer to rebuild mentally and physically and come out with some new bangers for you this fall.”

He added, “Also Jalen Brunson should NOT have tried that long range three,” referring to the New York Knicks’ guard and his recent playoff performance

On Friday, Richman, 51, shared a vague post asking fans for their prayers and well-wishes ahead of a mysterious second surgery.

Celebrity Health Scares Through the Years

“Hello beautiful people. Don’t want to scare anyone like last time, so just want to be ultra clear-Today is surgery number two,” he wrote. “And because nobody knows the future, I just wanted to once again tell all those who have been so kind and supportive of me & the shows I make and have made, I am forever grateful & love you all so much.”

The original post continued, “If I’m granted the opportunity to come out of this, I promise I’ll continue to work my tail off to give you my all. Blessed to live the life I have & yes, blessed to live long enough to see my beloved @spursofficial lift a European Trophy. If ya have a second, lift your boy up in your prayers. See ya on the other side.”

One month earlier, the former host sparked concern over his health after sharing a cryptic Instagram post in which he said he never claimed to be perfect.

“Thank you all for the support you have given & the chance to live out my dreams to uplift so many others through the shows that I make, and to tell their stories,” he wrote on April 10. “I’m not perfect, never claimed to be. I’ve always tried my best and tried to lead with love. I’m rooting for all of you, & appreciate every last one of you.”

Later, Richman gave fans an update in which he explained the post and apologized for causing so much online worry.

“I wasn’t going to say anything because it’s kind of a personal nature,” he said at the time. “So I have to have a couple of surgeries. Thankfully it’s just to fix some injuries I’ve had. It’s nothing, God forbid, related to a much more serious medical condition. But they’re serious surgeries to fix these injuries.”

Summer House’s Jesse Solomon Opens Up About Testicular Cancer Journey

Richman went on to explain that his father had undergone what he referred to as a “routine surgery” when he was 52 and “never came out,” which left the television host afraid of hospitals and surgeries.

“These injuries are maybe a little bit of a result of me feeling my own age,” he added. “I’m scared. I’m super scared out of my mind, and a bit sad. I know nowadays, everyone’s trying to be a sigma — no one wants to admit any kind of fear, but I’m scared.”

Ahead of his unspecified procedures, Richman said he “prayed” and, as a result, felt “a lot of gratitude and a bit of humility” which ultimately inspired him to share the original, concerning post.

“I was trying to communicate because the bottom line is that I work at the pleasure of the people that enjoy my shows,” he explained. “That enjoy me as a host —or whatever that is.”

Khloe Kardashian Introduces Her Kids to ‘Cheetah Girls’ Starring Rob’s Ex

Khloé Kardashian is ready to usher in a whole new generation of “Cheetah sisters.”

“Girl sleepover and it’s about that time @adriennebailon,” Kardashian, 40, wrote via her Instagram Stories on Friday, May 24, sharing a photo of her TV cued up to watch 2003’s The Cheetah Girls on Disney+.

While it’s not known who scored invites to the intimate sleepover, Kardashian shares daughter True, 7, and son Tatum, 2, with ex Tristan Thompson. She also frequently babysits her 8-year-old niece Dream Kardashian, the daughter of exes Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna.

The now-classic Disney Channel Original Movie, based on Deborah Gregory’s book series of the same name, starred Raven-Symoné, Sabrina Bryan, Kiely Williams and Bailon-Houghton, now 41, as a teenage girl band. The musical’s success spawned two televised sequels in 2006 and 2008, respectively. (Bryan, 40, Williams, 38, and Bailon also went on multiple live concert tours and recorded several CDs as their onscreen personas.)

Adrienne Bailon Is 'Waiting' for Playdate With Kourtney Kardashian's Son

During the Cheetah Girls’ heyday, Bailon-Houghton dated Rob, now 38, from 2007 to 2009. Bailon-Houghton and her family even made cameos on his family’s Keeping Up With the Kardashians docuseries at the time.

“It really is the shortest relationship I’ve ever had,” Bailon-Houghton, who is now married to producer Israel Houghton, exclusively recalled to Us Weekly in December 2018 of her previous romance. “I was like, ‘Guys, but I’ve accomplished other things.’”

She added, “I think that even got misinterpreted as me saying at some point I wish I had never done the show. I don’t think it was that at all. … I just was annoyed that people tried to say that was the only thing I had accomplished. So, that was a sucky spot in my career.”

Bailon-Houghton rose to fame as a member of girl group 3LW before The Cheetah Girls came her way. She’s since starred in additional film projects, launched a jewelry line and cohosted The Real talk show.

While Bailon-Houghton has moved on from Rob and their one-time romance, she still keeps up with his famous siblings.

Rob Kardashian Calls Khloe ‘My Darling Buttercup' in Gushing B-Day Tribute

“I love those girls and I think that they’re amazing,” Bailon-Houghton told Us in January 2024. “They’re girls’ girls. They’re always there to lift you up and be like, ‘You’ve got this. You look amazing,’ give a compliment, and it’s awesome.”

At the time, the actress told Us that she was “waiting” to introduce her 2-year-old son, Ever, to Kourtney Kardashian’s youngest, Rocky. (Kourtney, 46, and husband Travis Barker welcomed their son in November 2023. They each have three older kids from previous relationships.)

“We’re definitely going to make it happen,” Bailon-Houghton quipped.
