Things took a chaotic turn near the White House Saturday evening when Nasire Best became the center of a security scare. Unfortunately, things ended in gunfire, lockdowns, and a stunned press corps watching it all unfold in real time. What started as unusual pacing outside one of the country’s most heavily guarded areas quickly escalated into rapid federal response.

Gunfire Erupts Outside White House Security Checkpoint

According to sources, 21-year-old Nasire Best was seen acting erratically along 17th Street NW before allegedly pulling a gun and firing toward a security checkpoint around 6:10 p.m. The exchange was brief but intense, with federal officers returning fire almost immediately. Authorities say gunfire struck and killed Best on the scene and injured at least one bystander during the exchange.

The Secret Service moved quickly to lock down the White House complex, ordering reporters and staff into secure areas as the situation developed. The FBI later confirmed it was assisting on the scene as investigators worked to piece together what led up to the incident. Witnesses in the press heard rapid gunfire and took shelter inside as security protocols activated.

Officials React As Investigation Into Best Continues

Officials and lawmakers later weighed in, with both sides of the aisle condemning political violence while praising law enforcement’s response. Early reports also noted Best had prior encounters with authorities and had been under a court order restricting access to White House areas. President Trump and others issued statements thanking federal agents for their quick action as investigators continue reviewing the circumstances surrounding the shooting. FBI Director Kash Patel took to X saying, “FBI is on the scene and supporting Secret Service responding to shots fired near White House grounds – we will update the public as we’re able“

Best’s Prior Encounters And Mental Health Under Review

Authorities are uncovering additional background details as investigators review Nasire Best’s past encounters with law enforcement. He previously claimed he was “Jesus Christ” and said he wanted to be arrested, according to reports.

Officials noted that he had been involuntarily committed earlier this year and had multiple prior incidents involving restricted White House perimeter access. Authorities are also questioning how he managed to return to the area despite a standing order to stay away. Investigators are reviewing whether his mental health history and prior violations contributed to Saturday’s escalation. Meanwhile, the motive remains unconfirmed.

Jada Wallace Continues To Melt Hearts With Adorable Photos Of Baby Arrow

Breezy and Jada’s latest pop out comes almost a month after they welcomed their baby boy Arrow. Jada revealed the news that they welcomed a son together back in April. Since his arrival, Jada has continued to share sweet flicks of Arrow on social media. Most recently, she dropped a photo of him snuggled up in a onesie on a cozy bed. Fans know CB is also a proud dad to three kids — his eldest daughter Royalty Brown whom he shares with Nia Guzman, he also shares a son named Aeko with Ammika Harris, and a daughter named Lovely with Diamond Brown.

Fans Have Been Clocking Breezy & Jada’s Status For A Minute

Prior to their Vegas pop out, Team Breezy fans already speculated that Jada Wallace and Chris Brown were more than friends. Things seemed to kick off after Jada dropped a mirror selfie back in June 2025. She flexed her outfit in the flick while Breezy chilled by the sink in the background. Fans thought that moment seemed to confirm that Jada was definitely his boo.

Then in January of this year, they stepped out together at Paris Fashion Week, adding even more fuel to the speculation that they together. Turns out, the assumptions weren’t too far off, since they are still vibing together after welcoming their son.

Meghan McCain has announced that her older brother Douglas “Doug” McCain has died. He was 66.

“I am deeply saddened to share the news of my brother Doug McCain’s sudden passing,” Meghan, 41, wrote via X on Sunday, May 24. “He was truly a wonderful, joyful man who supported me throughout my life. He brought humor, fun and great conversation to every room. I will cherish our memories together.”

The former The View cohost added, “Our prayers are with his wife Ashley and children Caroline and Shepp.”

No official cause of death has been publicly revealed at the time of publication.

Meghan shared the same statement on Instagram, alongside a photo of her late brother and her late father, former Senator John McCain, as well as two solo pictures of her sibling. (John, who ran for president in 2008 against Barack Obama, died in 2018 at the age of 81 after a battle with cancer.)

Doug was the eldest son of John’s first wife, Carol McCain, from a previous marriage. The late senator went on to adopt Doug and his brother, Andrew, after he married Carole in 1965. They later welcomed a third child, daughter Sidney, one year before John’s plane was shot down in Vietnam and he spent nearly six years away from his family as a prisoner of war.

When he was rescued and returned to the U.S, he entered the political world, which his son Andy recalled ultimately put a strain on his first marriage.

“As dad progressed, he was gone a lot, doing a lot of international travel, and it was putting a little stress on the marriage,” he said in the 2018 HBO documentary John McCain: For Whom the Bell Tolls.

It was at this time, in 1979, that he ultimately met his second wife, Cindy McCain — 18 years his junior — in Hawaii.

“Cindy was very young too, and you can’t help who you fall in love with,” Sidney said in the same HBO documentary. “I truly believe that my dad is very much in love with Cindy, and I think she is very much in love with him, and I think there is something very beautiful about that. At the time it was really awful.”

After John and Cindy wed, they welcomed four additional children to their blended family: Meghan, John “Jack” McCain, James McCain and Bridget McCain.

Memorial Day weekend is a showdown between the two sides of modern Hollywood. On one side, we have Disney’s big-budget Star Wars blockbuster The Mandalorian and Grogu, and on the other, the latest micro-budget horror from Blumhouse: Obsession. The two films can’t be any more different, and while Star Wars’ return to the big screen is expected to earn over $400 million at the box office, it’s Obsession that’s going to enter the history books. Not only because of its total box office, it’s going to end up over a $100 million, but it’s how it’s earned the money. It’s the first film since Shrek to earn more its second weekend than its first, without the benefit of Christmas or Thanksgiving weekends. That’s one for the history books. 

Obsession Defies Decades Of History

A second weekend drop of under 50 percent is considered a success in Hollywood. On average, movies tend to be frontloaded these days, and we’ll never again have a film like Titanic, which earned more on Valentine’s Day three months after release than it did on opening night. It was catastrophic that both Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania fell by 67 percent in their second weekends, but a franchise-saving success when Bumblebee dropped only 3 percent. Obsession has, percentage-wise, done better than all of those films, and thousands of others. 

Obsession is, as of the time of this writing, on pace for a second weekend performance of $19 million. 16 percent above its original haul of $17 million. With outstanding word of mouth, rave reviews, and countless social media reactions, sketch comedian Curry Barker’s (no relation to that other Barker) horror debut shows no signs of slowing down. If the third weekend breaks $19 million, Obsession will become one of the most successful films in modern history. 

The Next Big Name In Horror

With a total budget of under a million dollars, Obsession cost less than the catering budget for The Mandalorian and Grogu. The tight story, with a total runtime of barely over 100 minutes, has been able to capture the audience’s imagination in a way few horror films have before, already earning the film comparisons to The Ring, The Blair Witch Project, and Paranormal Activity. The One Wish Willow that allows Bear (Michael Johnston) to wish for his crush, Nikki (Inde Navarrette) to love him more than anyone is already being talked about as the subject of a second film, or an anthology, with multiple One Wish Willow’s going very, very badly for the wisher.

Low-budget horror has become a staple of cinema over the last few decades in particular, and Curry Barker is set to follow up his current hit next year with Anything but Ghosts starring Aaron Paul and Bryce Dallas Howard (with an estimated budget of $5 million) and in 2027, a new take on an old classic: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. It’ll be a tough bar to clear the success of Obsession, which might break even more records before its run comes to an end, but given the reaction to his small-scale Monkey’s Paw story, Barker is going to become one of the hottest directors in Hollywood. 

Comedian Eddie Griffin isn’t holding back when it comes to Drake. During the latest episode of his “NNN” show, the actor roasted the Canadian rapper over his most recent album, “ICEMAN,” and called him too “sensitive.” His critique of the “Degrassi” alum’s album comes after the latter took shots at several celebrities on the project, including NBA champion LeBron James.

Griffin, known for his sitcom “Malcolm & Eddie,” spoke about Drake’s May 15 album on the most recent episode of his YouTube show. As he was speaking about it, Griffin made it clear that he wasn’t a fan of the “One Dance” rapper, calling him too “sensitive.”

In the video, which now has over 114,000 views, Griffin told his listeners that he hadn’t planned on listening to Drake’s latest body of work, saying he “refuses to buy garbage.” During his rant, he also seemed to take issue with some of Drake’s songs, particularly one where he takes a clear shot at Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James.

“… the ice-melting man is said to have a song clowning LeBron James because he took a picture on the sidelines with Kendrick Lamar after taking a picture with Drake,” Griffin said. “He took a picture with your enemy? I didn’t know y’all were dating.”

Griffin didn’t stop there, though. He went even further, saying Drake “sounds like a b-tch to me.” He added, “It’s over. Just take your owl a** and travel in the dark quietly because owls, they move quietly.”

Drake Calls Out LeBron James In ‘1 Am In Albany’

According to a previous report from The Blast, Drake stirred up a bit of chaos on the night of May 14, 2026, when songs from his trio of albums were leaked online. In one song, “1 AM in Albany,” Drake makes it clear that he’s no longer in a good place with his former friend, James.

“I shouldn’t even be shocked to see you in that arena, because you always made your career off of switching teams up,” Drake raps over the beat. “Please stop asking what’s going on with 23 & me, I’m a real n****, and he’s not, it’s in my DNA.”

Drake’s lyrics about the Cleveland Cavaliers alum come over a year after James was spotted singing along to Kendrick Lamar‘s diss track about the “God’s Plan” rapper, “Not Like Us.”

Drake And James Had A Close Relationship With One Another

Prior to their falling out, Drake and James had a well-documented friendship. Not only did the “Hotline Bling” rapper have a portrait of James tattooed on his body, but he also revealed in 2011 that he used to text James before every game.

“I always let him know that it’s his night,” Drake said, according to The Blast. “Let’s get it, let’s go out there with a clear mind and forget all the other stuff going on and just stay focused on the task. That ring. Tonight, I told him it was his night. And it was his night tonight.”

In 2025, James opened up about his strained relationship with Drake in an interview with Speedy Morman, admitting that things between them had soured.

“Always wish him the best. Obviously, um, different places right now, currently. He’s doing his thing, I’m doing mine. But it’s always love, for sure,” the father of three said.

Drizzy Was Saddened By James’ Behavior

Prior to speaking about his issues with James on his album, Drake made it clear that he had issues with those who’d wronged him, releasing a statement during a 2024 speech showing love to his “real friends” who had stood by him.

Continuing, Drake said that he’s had to find the strength to move forward after being hurt by those close to him.

“They might try to move funny with you. They might stab you in the back. They might do a lot of things to you. You’ll come to that realization, wherever you’re at in life. You’ve probably been there and you’ll be there again. That’s how life is. Sometimes it’s you and you alone by yourself,” he said.

The Rapper Stars In A New Commercial With Another NBA Champion

Although Drake’s relationship with James has deteriorated, that hasn’t stopped other NBA icons from teaming up with the “Hold On, We’re Going Home” rapper.

Recently, Drake starred in a new Nike commercial alongside NBA champion Kevin Durant to promote his new sneaker, the KD19.

“Normalize glazing the bros @easymoneysniper 19th sneaker available on nike.com and SNKRs 6.17,” the two stars captioned the Instagram post.

If you’re in the market for a mind-bending psychological thriller, the last person you’re expecting to see is probably Michael Scott. Even still, Hulu’s original mini-series The Patient is the perfect example of Steve Carell’s surprisingly stellar dramatic acting capabilities. The series runs just ten episodes in total, and tells the gripping story of a therapist who is kidnapped and held captive by a crazed serial killer, intent on curbing his own twisted urges. It’s sort of Dexter meets the Melfi scenes in The Sopranos, and it’s the perfect show for a quick weekend binge.

I first became aware of The Patient back when it premiered in 2022, and binge-watched every episode in just two sittings with a friend. From the advertisements I’d seen for the show, I surmised that Steve Carell would be eschewing his usual screwball comedy routine, though I had no idea how strong his performance would ultimately be. I recall seeing other Steve Carell dramas like Foxcatcher in the past, and while I enjoyed seeing him play against type, I wasn’t especially blown away. In The Patient, Carell delivers with enough gravitas to command your attention for all ten episodes, rivaled only by Domhnall Gleeson‘s twisted Sam Fortner.

Early on in The Patient, we’re introduced to Carell’s Dr. Alan Strauss. He’s a therapist who has a tense relationship with his son, currently in the throes of depression after the recent loss of his wife. He’s also suffering a crisis of faith, which further alienates him from his highly devout and religious son. After taking on a new patient by the name of Sam, Alan is knocked unconscious, kidnapped, and chained to a radiator in a cramped basement. Upon waking up, Alan learns that Sam is a serial killer seeking psychiatric help.

At first, Alan attempts to talk his way out of the basement using his superior therapist intellect. He implores Sam to seek help through more traditional means by turning himself in, and highlights that keeping a middle-aged professional hostage will quickly become a logistical nightmare. Even still, Sam presses on, providing Alan with just enough amenities to keep him alive and focused on their unguided sessions. The only upside to Alan’s imprisonment is the food, since Sam is a very picky restaurant inspector with access to all the finest restaurants in town.

The premise may seem a little bare bones, but The Patient winds up delivering some truly gripping material over the course of a single season. The show explores themes of faith and resilience, the relationship between mental health and family, and draws some stark comparisons to the plight of those victimized during the Holocaust. The penultimate episode of the series is even titled “Auschwitz.” I even learned a few interesting things about the Jewish faith over the course of my binge, which brings some seriously unique color to the entire show.

If you’re hoping to see Steve Carell ham it up in an Office-style comedy, you’ll definitely turn this show off after the first episode. But, if you’re open to seeing the comedian grapple with his faith, his career, and his strained relationship with his family while intermittently threatened by a lunatic, this might be the best thing you’ll see all year. It’ll make you laugh, it’ll make you cry, and it will surely make you very hungry for a gourmet meal. The Patient is currently streaming on Hulu.

Although he’s still a popular name, the recent run of movies for Mark Wahlberg has been wince-inducing. 2024’s Arthur the King aside, Wahlberg has not had a performance rank more than 48% on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes in eight long years. From his team-up with director Mel Gibson in the action thriller Flight Risk and the disappointing Prime Video original heist thriller Play Dirty, to the action sequel, The Family Plan 2, and the disastrous recent soccer comedy Balls Up, it’s a tough time to be a Wahlberg fan.

It feels like a long time since Wahlberg earned either of his Academy Award nominations or any of his 9 Primetime Emmy nominations, but the former Marky Mark still boasts an impressive filmography. After making a name for himself in gritty, intense movies, Wahlberg’s career took a sharp comedic turn in 2010 when he teamed up with Hollywood’s resident funnyman Will Ferrell in the brilliant buddy cop satire The Other Guys, which earned plenty of praise upon arrival.

Also starring Dwayne Johnson and Samuel L. Jackson, albeit for less time than you might imagine, The Other Guys couldn’t return a strong box office haul during the second half of 2010. Against a bloated budget of $100 million, the movie only earned $170 million worldwide, split between a domestic haul of $119 million and a further $51 million from overseas markets. 16 years later, and perfect for those looking for a break from disappointing recent Wahlberg comedies, The Other Guys is officially joining a new streamer. Starting June 1, you can watch the hilarious buddy cop comedy on Starz in the U.S.

What Can You See Mark Wahlberg in Next?

After such a poor run of movies, Wahlberg will be hoping to break the trend with his next project, the historical crime thriller By Any Means. “A notorious mafia hitman and a young Black FBI agent team up to investigate the murders of civil rights leaders in Mississippi in 1966,” reads the logline for the film, which stars Wahlberg alongside Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Giancarlo Esposito, Nicole Beharie, David Strathairn, Josh Lucas, and Ethan Embry. As it stands, the Paramount project is scheduled for release in theaters on Labor Day (September 4, 2026).

The Other Guys will be streaming on Starz starting June 1, 2026. Stay tuned to Collider for more streaming stories.

Chile, Lizzo is once again setting the internet on fire, and this time it’s got folks talking, double-tapping, and scrolling back for a closer look. Whenever she steps into her unapologetic energy, you already know it’s going to be a moment—but this latest drop has the internet doing a whole lot of reacting as she leans all the way into confidence, curves, and not holding anything back.

Lizzo Turns Heads With Unapologetic Mirror Moment

In a post shared to her X account, Lizzo showed off what her mama gave her while speaking directly to the thick girlies. With her caption, “Not enough big girls w they whole stomach out fa meeee,” she made it clear she’s not here for the body rules—she’s here to rewrite them. She also shared two mirror selfies taken in front of what appears to be a vintage-style mirror with a vase of soft pink flowers sitting in front of it.

Lizzo rocked a magenta bikini with a matching necklace and bracelet, mini hoop earrings, and a blue satin (or silk) scarf as her dark hair peeks out just slightly. The whole look ties together effortlessly as she serves full confidence and her unmistakable “that girl” energy.

Comment Section Erupts Over Lizzo’s Bold Post

Folks immediately ran to The Shade Room’s Instagram comment section once the post started circulating, and the reactions were all over the place. Some users were hyping Lizzo up, saying she looked good and praising her confidence, while others pushed back by reminding people that “normal” bodies of all shapes deserve celebration too. Then, of course, there were the messy takes, with a few commenters snapping back at the criticism and saying things like “y’all mommas are built like fridges, so not too much on Lizzo.”

One Instagram user @attractifff commented “I think she looks good idk“

This Instagram user @mahogany________ said, “I like her confidence ❤️ definitely when surgery bodies are being promoted as the normal. Lizzo Keep doing you boo“

And, Instagram user @missmariethegoddess wrote, “Not yall mad she loves being a bbw and expresses it every chance she get ! YAAAAAAAAS LIZZO 😍😍!”

Lizzo Stays Outside Stunting On Everybody

Lizzo isn’t new to having the internet gasping for air with how hard she serves, and once again she locks folks in on her glow-up energy. The ‘Truth Hurts’ songstress had the timeline buzzing back in January after stepping out with what many are calling a major transformation moment, leaving fans double-tapping and giving her props for looking practically unrecognizable in the best way. She shut the red carpet down in a pink mini dress that hugged every curve just right, paired with strappy sandals that sealed the entire serve, and honestly… the slay was undeniable.

I don’t think any actor has ever gotten a bigger career bump from a television finale than Bryan Cranston. Once Breaking Bad wrapped in 2013, Cranston began popping up all over the place in movies, TV shows, television ads, and Broadway plays. While many of his post-Heisenberg roles are excellent, my favorite underrated Cranston performance has to be the leading role in 2016’s The Infiltrator. The movie made a small splash at the box office and ultimately failed to make back its budget, but it stands up really well on a rewatch now that it’s streaming on Hulu.

As a massive Breaking Bad fan, I distinctly recall catching The Infiltrator in theaters and gasping as I discovered the premise. The film is a biographical crime drama based on the true story of the men who went undercover to take down infamous drug kingpin Pablo Escobar. Cranston leads the cast as United States Customs Service Special Agent Robert Mazur, based on the real-life Mazur’s recollection of events. Diane Kruger, John Leguizamo, Yul Vazquez, and The Office‘s Amy Ryan round out the cast.

In case it doesn’t immediately leap out to you, I found this movie hilarious for the mere fact that Cranston was flipping the script on his Breaking Bad persona. On the hit AMC TV show, he portrayed a timid, mild-mannered suburbanite who led a double life as a violent drug lord. In The Infiltrator, Cranston is a rough-around-the-edges badass who weasels his way into Escobar’s crew in order to bust him and take down the entire operation. For fans of the show, this is like Walter White and Hank Schrader merging into a single mustachioed individual.

Even if you’ve never seen Breaking Bad, there’s plenty to enjoy about The Infiltrator. The story is quite gripping, the performances are top-notch, and the cinematography leaves your head spinning. I distinctly recall walking out of the theater back in 2016 thinking it was going to be a hit, so you can imagine my surprise when nobody was talking about it at the water cooler the following week. The Infiltrator currently touts a middling 72 percent critic score on Rotten Tomatoes as well, so I might just have very niche taste.

If I had to guess why The Infiltrator underperformed, I’d say it’s probably because it tells a similar story to the Netflix series Narcos, if a bit more condensed. Narcos is also about taking down Escobar, though the series focuses more on the life of the kingpin and his ultimate demise, giving viewers a much fuller picture of events. The movie, by contrast, concludes when Escobar is caught and arraigned in the late 1980s, as that’s when Robert Mazur’s work concluded. History buffs will note that Escobar ultimately managed to escape from prison during the early 1990s, and live the rest of his life on the run.

If you were one of the lucky few who caught this film in theaters ten years ago, why not give it another spin today? Alternatively, this might be the perfect time for a first-time viewer to sit down and catch The Infiltrator on Hulu.
