He kept the reveal simple, posting the new style to X with the caption, “new hair.” The transformation quickly caught attention, setting the stage for his latest appearance change.

Brooke Hogan is setting the record straight regarding her absence from the recently released Netflix documentary about her father, late wrestling legend Hulk Hogan.

While Hulk Hogan’s son and ex-wife are prominently featured in the documentary, Brooke Hogan is not present, following her recent statements about her estrangement from her father prior to his death.

In an interview with Page Six, Brooke Hogan explained why she chose not to appear in the Netflix documentary chronicling the life and death of her father, wrestler Hulk Hogan.

“No matter how much people have either dogged my dad or loved my dad, if he calls and says, ‘Hey, there’s an opportunity for you to be on TV,’ everybody’s tune changes real quick,” she told the outlet. “All of a sudden they’re on Team Hogan. I didn’t want to be in the company of people that I’ve seen switch up.”

Her mother Linda Hogan, who she is estranged from, and her younger brother Nick Hogan, are both included in the documentary. The Hogan family’s life was previously documented on the VH1 reality series, “Hogan Knows Best.”

She Recently Shared Her Regret About Removing Herself From Her Father’s Will

Per TMZ, during an appearance on the “Hollywood Raw” podcast, to promote her current stint on the latest season of the HGTV hit competition series, “Rock the Block,” Brooke shared insight into her previous decision to remove herself from Hulk’s will back in 2023, two years before his July 2025 death.

“I regret that decision,” she revealed. “Not because of the money, I’ve never been about the money, but because now I don’t have a seat at the table.”

Brooke also shared that her decision was based on fearing for her safety due to the people her father had in his inner circle, which she previously stated was a reason for their estrangement.

“There were situations that had me so scared,” the mother of two said. “I really took myself off the will because I was actually scared for myself, my family, my safety. There’s not enough money in the world that would matter with what I felt I was facing.”

Hogan Spoke About Taking A Break From Her Father In The Years Before His Death

In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly on April 13, Brooke opened up about how Hulk’s inner circle led her to decide to distance herself from her father two years before his death.

“He said, ‘You go this way, I go that way,’” she told the outlet. “That hurt. I could see what was happening with him with the people around him. I could also see his potential and see how life could be. And he just wasn’t there. I was pregnant with my twins. I was newly married. I just had to take a break.”

Brooke continued, adding: “I don’t know if we would have ever reconnected, even if he were alive, because of the mindset he was in. He would have had to have a change of mindset and a change of company. I don’t know if he was there. I don’t know if he was willing to do that.”

The Former Reality Star Also Skipped Hulk Hogan’s Funeral

In a lengthy Instagram post, Brooke explained her decision not to attend her father’s funeral, noting that Hulk “hated the morbidity of funerals,” and she was sure he did not want one.

“My Dearest Daddy, You were my everything, and I will always be your girl,” her message read. “I am PROUD to be your daughter—for all the love, light, and goodness you brought into this world. Thank you for choosing me in this lifetime, and for loving me so deeply.”

“Our bond is eternal. That truth brings me comfort and hope, even in your absence. I love you more than all the stars in the sky, 4LifeAfterLife. Forever yours, Brooke,” she added.

She also shared that she appreciated the events and celebrations organized to honor him, but she chose to do so privately. 

Brooke Hogan Released Music About Her Late Father Earlier This Year

On March 31, Brooke released a new song called “Wanna Go Back,” which captures the loss of losing her father. 

A clip of the song’s mournful lyrics was posted on Instagram.

“I don’t wanna go back, ’cause you were my world, and I was your girl,” she sings. “Daddy, you lying there made a fool out of me…what you did to me.”

Disney’s unscripted and reality TV chief, Rob Mills, is sharing an update on whether Taylor Frankie Paul’s Bachelorette season will air on Disney-owned ABC — or perhaps elsewhere.

“Everything with that is one day at a time,” Mills said in a Wednesday, April 22, interview with Variety.

ABC shelved season 22 of The Bachelorette starring the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star back in March, just days before it was set to premiere. The decision came after TMZ published footage of a domestic violence incident involving Taylor, 31, and her ex-boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen, that took place in 2023. (Taylor pleaded guilty to felony aggravated assault over the incident in exchange for other charges against her being dropped.)

“The day all of that stuff happened, really our first sort of concern was really for Taylor and the family and everyone involved in that … it was really more on a human level,” Mills said in an interview with Deadline on Wednesday.

Related: Is ‘The Bachelorette’ Replacing Taylor Frankie Paul? ABC’s Plans Revealed

The future of one of ABC’s hit reality TV shows is up in the air after the network decided to cancel Taylor Frankie Paul’s season of The Bachelorette amid domestic violence allegations. A source exclusively tells Us Weekly that the network does not currently have plans to bring in another Bachelorette as a replacement for […]

At the time, Utah’s Draper and West Jordan police departments were also investigating Taylor in connection with two further alleged domestic violence disputes between her and Dakota, 33. Earlier this month, the Salt Lake City District Attorney’s Office declined to press charges against Taylor after reviewing evidence submitted by the respective police departments.

In light of the development, Mills reiterated to Deadline that, “Now, we’re sort of taking it a day at a time.”

“I think her season is a wonderful season by Bachelor standards. If it gets seen, I’m sure people will absolutely enjoy it,” he added.

The Bachelorette is produced for ABC by Warner Horizon Unscripted Television, a division of Warner Bros. Television Studios. After ABC pulled the plug on the latest season, there was some speculation that Warner Bros. could attempt to license the episodes elsewhere.

According to Deadline, Mills denied any conversations with Warner Bros. about that prospect.

“I think if there’s something that absolutely says very clearly, one way or the other, that points in that direction, you’ll know,” he said. “But right now, there’s really just nothing to say other than it is a great season, and I hope that, at some point, Bachelor Nation gets to see it.”

While the status of The Bachelorette season 22 remains up in the air, Hulu confirmed on Tuesday, April 22, that The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 5 is set to resume production. Filming previously paused following an alleged incident between Taylor and Dakota that took place in February.

“The producers and cast have welcomed Taylor to return to this year’s filming,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly on Wednesday. “It is still unclear whether she will come back this year, but she is expected to be back in the future.”

Dakota, meanwhile, “will not be involved” in the show going forward, a source added.

“Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Morocco” has been in limbo since 2023 after Caroline Manzo accused Brandi Glanville of sexually assaulting her during production. Andy Cohen has said the show might air, but it’s currently being held up by an ongoing lawsuit. Now, “Real Housewives of Orange County” alum Kelly Dodd is defending Glanville against the allegations.

Dodd recently hosted an Instagram Live session. During it, a fan mentioned Manzo, who appeared on “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” for the first five seasons. Upon seeing Manzo’s name, the “RHOC” alum said, “Ew, Caroline Manzo, ew.”

After that, she mentioned “RHUGT: Morocco” and Manzo’s lawsuit. According to her, “By the way, they all told me that Caroline Manzo, the people that were there, told me that Caroline Manzo was trying to get it on like Donykong with [Brandi].”

After that, she wondered about the status of the lawsuit against NBCUniversal regarding the alleged incident.

Kelly Says She Wants To See ‘RHUGT: Morocco’

Dodd continued discussing the situation, saying that she “can’t stand that Brandi Glanville, she bugs, but Gretchen and Vicki swear that Brandi did nothing wrong. They both said that she did nothing, nothing wrong. And I want to watch that one. I want to see exactly what went down.”

After that, she said, “I just think that was a money grab. I think,” seemingly referring to Manzo’s lawsuit.

Regarding the yet-to-be-released “RHUGT: Morocco,” Manzo filmed the season in January 2023, alongside Phaedra Parks, Camille Grammer, Alex McCord, Eva Marcille, Vicki Gunvalson, and Glanville. In typical situations, the season would have aired months after filming rather than being shelved.

‘Housewives’ Fans Think The ‘Orange County’ Alum Is Right

Following Dodd’s comments going viral, “Housewives” fans weighed in, with many noting that, while not perfect, the “RHOC” alum isn’t known for lying.

One person wrote, “Kelly is many things, but she’s never been a liar. I think she’s right here.” Another X user stated, “Justice for Brandi Glanville.” After that, someone else called out Manzo, writing, “If you rewatch ‘RHONJ,’ you can really see how diabolical Caroline is, especially knowing what she did to Dina and Lexi.”

However, someone else defended Manzo. They said, “So two people who were not involved in the complaint say Brandi did nothing wrong? Was Kelly there? I guess ‘believe the victim’ is only a thing sometimes. How about we just listen to the two people involved, and then you believe who you want to.”

Lastly, a different ‘Housewives” fan stated, “No one’s been ‘vindicated’. This woman is repeating secondhand information she heard from former cast members of a show she still isn’t over being off of. That’s all.”

Glanville has been open about how much the toll Manzo’s claims against her have had on her personal and professional life. Notably, she hasn’t appeared on a reality television show since the alleged incident. Recently, in October 2024, she took to social media to not only suggest that Manzo is a lesbian, but to vent her overall frustrations.

Glanville posted to X, “Happy Sunday funday! It’s been almost 2 yrs now since a lying,short red haired closeted old lesbian ruined my life. Girl, lean into [the rainbow] that’s a beautiful space. When you come out ur family will be able to finally speak their own obvious truths.”

It’s worth noting that multiple cast members have defended Glanville. As mentioned, “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Parks was also on the cast. She spoke to US Weekly in November 2023 about the alleged incident.

Parks, who is also an attorney, said, “Absolutely nothing [happened]. So, let’s roll the tapes! I was there, and honey, I was sober. Sober, sober. I really don’t drink, so I saw it all.”

Regarding what happened between the two, Parks recalled, “It was a Harlequin romance. Love was winning.”

Brandi Says She’s Been Pushed To The Limit

Glanville appeared on Tori Spelling‘s “MisSPELLING” podcast in April 2025, detailing the struggles she’s faced since being accused of sexual assault by Manzo. Additionally, she’s been impacted by several health issues, including facial disfigurement.

She said, “In the midst of all of this, I’m not working. All my jobs are canceled because of the Caroline work. The narrative when we got back from Morocco was I was fired for being inappropriate with Caroline Manzo. And I wasn’t… It’s ruined my life.”

The “Housewives” alum continued, “I got sick six months later. But those six months, I was in a fetal position on my couch, like, contemplating suicide, being called horrible things. It’s so crazy that the press has so much power.”

Chile! What started as a compliment for a HAWT stranger has turned into a clap back session between Chris Brown and a video creator. After Breezy went viral for sliding into a woman’s comment section, a man accused the artist of “thirsting” over her. Additionally, he claimed that women are praising the compliment despite Chris’ violent history and “bullsh*t” music. After peeping the creator’s comments, Brown didn’t let his insults slide and threw a few jabs of his own!

What Did The Video Creator Say About Chris Brown?

Two words: Karrueche Tran. That’s who social media users were nonstop mentioning after Chris Brown slid into the comment section of a Blasian baddie named Destiny. Comment sections flooded with debates and thoughts about the resemblance between the beauty influencer and Tran and Breezy’s preference in women. All this was sparked by several fire emojis Chris left on Destiny’s pixie cut review video. Even Bow Wow weighed in, joking that Breezy “must be stopped.”

Well, one video creator on Instagram (@doliestv) didn’t find Chris Brown’s comment or the reactions to it funny. Instead, on April 22, he described Breezy complimenting Destiny as the artist “thirsting over random woman that looks like Karrueche.” In a video, @doliestv called Chris Brown lame, criticized his music and blasted the singer’s female fans.

“…I keep telling y’all that these women weak as hell…We see the history that he got under his belt and women still don’t care. That’s why I keep saying bro, do not try to be a good dude out here. Everything that women say they hate they actually love. That’s why I’ll never understand why dudes is taking their girlfriends to Chris Brown concerts. All he gon try to do is take your girl and she gon end up leaving you. And dude don’t care if your girl in a relationship, he get a thrill out of doing it,” the man said in his video. “That’s how you know dude a terrible a** n***a. Y’all supporting dude bullsh*t a** music and he don’t even care for y’all. Ion care what nobody says, dude ain’t good at all.”

For context, it appears the male creator is referencing Chris Brown’s 2009 domestic violence case involving Rihanna. These days, Rihanna is dating A$AP Rocky and co-parenting their three children together. Her relationship with Brown is unclear.

Additionally, in 2017, Karrueche Tran filed a restraining order against the singer. A judge granted a five-year order after Tran testified about threats of violence, harassing messages and stalker-like behavior. Last year, cameras captured Tran and Breezy seemingly interacting at Coachella. She’s now dating Deion Sanders, while Breezy prepares to release a new album next month and launch a joint tour with Usher.

Chris Brown Slams Video Creator In Comment Section

After Breezy peeped the harsh feedback, he popped off in @doliestv’s comment section. He critiqued the creator’s nose, writing, “GET THAT YAM OFF YA FACE N*GGA” with laughing emojis. Chris also seemingly posted a reference photo showing a different man holding a yam to his nose during a livestream. The creator responded to Breezy with allegations of drug use. He wrote, “@chrisbrownofficial go do that [snowflake, nose emojis] like you been doin boy. Dats why you not gone ever perform at the Super Bowl lil dude keep dreaming you gone forever be cancelled.” 

In another reply, Chris Brown added a bunch of laughing emojis and said: “You sound hurt my boy. I’m lame but you thought this was real news to make a post about another n***a. Better be lucky I ain’t tryna crack ya mom.” 

Meanwhile, in his IG Stories, @doliestv tagged Chris Brown in a multi-video clap back. He called the singer a b*tch, a “known colorist” who puts “snow up [his] nose. Additionally, he said Brown has no talent and is a wannabe Michael Jackson. “I would beat the f**k out of you,” he claimed, adding that Breezy and his music fell off and he has to use Usher to go on tour.

Also, in a separate video, the video creator responded to Chris’ “yam” comment by comparing his nose to Ari Fletcher’s. The correlation remains unclear.

Woman Breezy Complimented Clears The Air

Meanwhile, early Thursday, Destiny hopped on Instagram Stories to greet the new faces on her page! Her surge in followers likely came following Chris Brown’s compliment on her pixie cut video.
