DJ Akademiks Suggests NBA YoungBoy For 2027
The timeline has been heating up all week as fans geared up to tune into Bad Bunny’s halftime show. Between Chris Brown’s seemingly subtle reaction and ongoing chatter online, folks haven’t stopped debating who the Super Bowl should’ve booked or who should take the stage next year. Now, DJ Akademiks has sparked a fresh round of discourse after throwing his own nomination into the mix.

DJ Akademiks Weighs In On The Halftime Conversation
DJ Akademiks took to X to share his thoughts on this year’s halftime show, praising the energy while also throwing shade at last year’s performance.
“This halftime show was fun.. had ppl vibing and dancing on some positive togetherness sht… last year Kendrick did a PSA for PDFS the whole performance .. sht was awkward and tone deaf. N**a we ain’t tryna hear dat sht.. we tryna get lit and turnt! Bad Bunny clears sorry!”
He then shifted the conversation toward next year, officially throwing his own pick into the ring. “Next year I nominate NBA YOUNGBOY to perform. Roc Nation I have sent my official recommendation via email and courier mail. Thanks for yall consideration!!! YB 2027 SUPERBOWL!” Akademiks also showed love to Chris Brown as a potential headliner, calling him one of the best performers alive right now and saying organizers should book him while he’s still flipping across stages.
I agree next year let’s put on BRIS BREEZY! ngl ain’t nobody alive rn can perform like him rn. We gotta book him before he get too old to do triple backflips and Gabbie Douglas somersaults n shit. Chris put his heart into every performance. Usher was good. BREEZY da GOAT! pic.twitter.com/8YYUmF326l

Social Media Reacts
Folks gathered under The Shade Room Teens to debate DJ Akademiks’ tweet. Many said they don’t think it will ever happen. Others added it better not happen before Chris Brown or Lil Wayne. Meanwhile, YoungBoy’s fans are already ready to buy tickets, sharing why they believe he’d deliver the perfect halftime show.
Instagram user @_pooh_215_ wrote. “Bring the slime im ready that definitely be the best superbowl ever rs make America slimy again”
Instagram user @kngmilly added, “I’m buying that ticket 💯”
While Instagram user @getmakyo wrote, “First time Akademics has said sum I agree with”
Instagram user @whodontluv_bucks wrote, “I just went to a halftime show where I didn’t understand one word I don’t need that sh** again”
Instagram user @1mblivin_ wrote, “Them grey folks would not let that happen let’s be real”

Instagram user @clipjunkie11 wrote, “I don’t think people understand that for the past 4-5 years all the teams been playing yb after they win”
Instagram user @povpadro added, “Record breaking halftime show hands down !!!
While Instagram user @loveetea_ wrote, “Him over wayne? Please stfu”
Reginae Carter And Joseline Hernadez Enter The Chat
While the internet continues to debate who should’ve performed at the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show, Reginae Carter made it clear she’s over it. She took to her Instagram Story writing, “I’m so tired of y’all fighting about this Super Bowl show every year! Lolll.”
If y’all recall, last year’s debate centered around her father, Lil Wayne, after many fans felt he should’ve headlined, especially since the game took place in his hometown of New Orleans. Some even argued he should’ve been chosen over Kendrick Lamar.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the internet, Joseline Hernandez chimed in after a fan tweeted that Bad Bunny should’ve brought her out during the show. Joseline replied, “That s**t would have been jumping.”

General Hospital 2-Week Spoilers Feb 9-20: Portia Drops Shocking Baby News & BLQ Unleashes Her Fury
General Hospital 2-week spoilers for February 9 -20, 2026 reveal Portia Robinson‘s (Brook Kerr) baby bombshell and Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) raging about something.
General Hospital Spoilers: Valentin & Carly Plot and Gio Comforts Emma
On Monday, February 9th, we are going to see Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) telling Carly Corinthos Spencer (Laura Wright) that she always knows the right buttons to push. Of course, they’re talking about Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna). They’re concerned about a lot of stuff right now.
Emma Scorpio-Drake (Brayden Bruner) gets some comfort from Gio Palmieri (Giovanni Mazza) when she’s back from France. Emma tells Gio that she had to leave her grandmother Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) behind, and Emma is very upset. She says she lost the grandmother that she knew, and Gio is there for her. Poor Anna has just been gaslit out of her mind.
Plus, Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring) tells Ava Jerome (Maura West) she knows exactly what she’s selling, and it certainly is an art. Lucy and Ava are going to get into it over Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota), which is what Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) was hoping would happen, and it looks like that’s manifesting.
GH Spoilers: Port Charles Police Commissioner Shakeups and Faison’s Return
Laura Spencer (Genie Francis) tells Mac Scorpio (John J. York) and Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) that Anna is not going to be coming back as police commissioner. Dante gets an offer also on Monday, and it may be to make his interim role permanent so that he stays on as police commissioner.
Plus, Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) has reason to be alarmed, and Felicia Scorpio (Kristina Wagner) is going to tell Jason that Anna had a message for him – Cesar Faison (Anders Hove) is alive. This was part of the reason that she’s been on high alert. She and Jason had debated it, and then Anna disappeared for a while.
Something has Jack skeptical while something shocks Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy), and both of these may be about Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) and Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud). Tuesday, February 10th, we have Carly offering Valentin something, and it may be some additional help.
Maybe it’s to stay as long as he needs to since nobody has come looking for him and he’s getting comfortable in her attic. Plus, Danny Morgan (Asher Jared Antonyzyn) gets creative about something, and this may be helping Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke) sneak out again to go see Valentin.
General Hospital Spoilers: Lucy Vows Vengeance and Alexis Reveals Major News for Jason
Plus, Lucy is out for vengeance. I’m sure this is on Ava, who may embarrass Lucy in front of Sidwell. I don’t think Ava’s going to take it well that Lucy basically said she was a hooker. You know, that’s not a very nice comment she was making. Sidwell is about to have his hands full with these two.
Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) has some information for Jason. Alexis may be telling him that right now Scout Cain (Cosette Abinante) is staying with her and Danny can see his sister, which would be a huge step forward.
Plus, Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) helps a very upset Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) see things differently. He’s upset about Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos) and her novel and the way she was talking about the cowboy character. Hopefully, Tracy can convince Cody to calm down, talk to Molly about this, and reconcile with her.
Portia’s Paternity Test Results and Kirsten Storms Returns to GH as Maxie Jones
On Wednesday, February 11th, we’ve got Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) grilling Joss. We could see Trina asking where Josslyn was during the blizzard. I wonder if she’ll try to tell a partial truth and admit that she went out to Wyndemere to see Lucas Jones (Van Hansis), but then he wasn’t there.
Sonny’s giving somebody advice, and I wonder if Dante has told him he’s been offered the police commissioner job. He’s worried about what’s going on with Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson), which of course Sonny’s on top of. He’s going to try to frame somebody else for the shooting.
Plus, Lucas gets a shock. That could be from anybody—his boyfriend Marco Rios (Adrian Anchondo), Britt, or Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen). Somebody gets Charlotte thinking, and we’ll see if it’s Danny. Maybe it’s about Valentin. Hopefully, it’s not about Danny and Charlotte kissing again. They’re cousins, second cousins, but still. Ew. And Jason gives somebody a warning. Maybe that’s going to be Britt, Michael, or Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard).
General Hospital Spoilers: Portia Delivers Big News – DNA Results are In!
Thursday, February 12th, we’ve got Portia giving somebody some big news. I wonder if she’s going to go ahead and do the paternity test because she knows Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) isn’t going to stop badgering her until she does it. The question is, of course, who’s the daddy. With big news, that sounds kind of positive, so maybe it’s Dr. Isaiah Gannon (Sawandi Wilson).
Meanwhile, Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) and Curtis are discussing their future. I guess we’ll find out soon if a baby is going to be part of it, which is the last thing Portia wants because she does not want Jordan raising any child of hers. Gio gets some advice from Brook Lynn, and this may be about how to support Emma while she’s going through these issues with her grandma Anna.
Plus, Nathan West (Ryan Paevey) goes looking for Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins Bruening). I wonder if Nathan is going to tell her that they should move forward and shouldn’t ignore their feelings. We may see more kisses soon. That same day, of course, is when Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) wakes up, which means things are going to get really good from now until the end of sweeps on February 25th. This is Kirsten Storms‘ first episode back to General Hospital.

Willow’s Dark Secret Exposed and Brook Lynn Confronts Harrison Chase on GH
Friday, February 13th, Brook Lynn is not holding back. She goes off on somebody, and I suspect it might be Chase. She may have reached her limit with his constant defense of Willow. And now that Willow’s been acquitted, it’s more than that. Chase is determined to prove that Michael shot Drew Cain Quartermaine (Cameron Mathison).
I wonder if Wiley Quartermaine Corinthos (Viron Weaver) might bust Chase to his wife and say that he saw him with his dad Michael’s keys. Britt is in for a shock from Nathan. I wonder if he’s going to admit his feelings for Lulu, which might make Britt’s head explode. We’ve also not really seen Nathan and Britt alone since he came back.
I wonder if we’re going to get some more hints that she has known about his location and what’s been going on with him for these past seven years. Felicia and Damian Spinelli (Bradford Anderson) make an important decision. I’m sure it’s about Maxie. Maybe it’s to go ahead and bring her back to Port Charles.
It could be to warn her that Nathan is suddenly back from the dead. Plus, Michael surprises Jacinda Bracken (Paige Herschell) with a Valentine’s Day date, and they are definitely going to keep heating up. Plus, Lucas opens up to Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst) on Friday, and it may be some concerns about Marco.
General Hospital February Sweeps: Maxie Learns Nathan West Is Alive
The week of February 16th through the 20th, we’re going to have Willow continue to drug a terrified Drew. He is right to be terrified. We do know from a recent interview with Katelyn MacMullen that Willow is going to get busted. Not right away, but we’ll see if it happens by the end of sweeps. The actress said when she’s caught out, it is going to be the worst moment of her life. Now the question is: is she busted for everything at once—shooting Drew, drugging Drew, and setting up Michael—or do things come out a little at a time?
Maxie has to adjust to coming back from this coma and finding out that Nathan is alive. Spinelli is obviously going to be there supporting her, but they do have to warn her because as soon as she sees James West (Gary James Fuller), he’s going to mention that he finally got to meet his dad. Nevertheless, Maxie’s family is thrilled, especially James and Georgie Spinelli (Lily Fisher). We should see more of the kids, and I’m personally really glad to have Kirsten Storms back.
Lulu & Nathan Struggle on General Hospital
Lulu and Nathan are going to struggle with their feelings now that Maxie is awake. But as long as she sticks with Spinelli reasonably, they can move forward. Maxie still might have some feelings about it. Michael proves that he’s all in with Jacinda but the PCPD is investigating him and things could get awkward.
Wiley may rat out Chase, Gio is there to support Emma, and Jason needs a vial of Britt’s meds ASAP for Brick (Stephen A. Smith) to reverse engineer them, but Cullum’s got them under wraps. We’ll see what kind of plan they have to get the medication.
Anna continues to struggle, and it may be a while before she’s back in Port Charles. Joss may be in danger from Cullum. Carly and Valentin’s friendship keeps growing, and Sonny is working overtime to protect Michael.

Farrah Abraham Dons Tiny Pink Bikini & Cowboy Boots for Poolside Shoot
Farrah Abraham
Yee-haw to Poolside Bikini Shoot!!!🔥
Published
Farrah Abraham got a very quick lesson in Civics 101 after we fact-checked her early jump into politics … so while she waits a couple more years to run for mayor of Austin, Texas, she’s back to breaking the internet, not the ballots!
The former “Teen Mom” star let these photos do the heavy lifting during a sizzling poolside shoot at L.A.’s Fenix Hotel Hollywood on Sunday … rocking a teeny-tiny pink bikini that put her surgically enhanced assets on full display.
Even though she was soaking up the California sun, Farrah didn’t forget her roots — stepping out in leopard-print cowboy boots, just in case anyone needed a reminder she’s a Texas girl at heart … political dreams and all.
As we told you, Farrah recently claimed she was running for mayor of Austin this year — before we had to gently — okay, bluntly — remind her the election isn’t until 2028.
No stress though — ’cause those boots weren’t made for campaigning just yet … they were made for strutting poolside in L.A.!

Detectives still have no persons of interest linked to Nancy’s disappearance … according to the Pima County Sheriff’s Department.
In a statement released Sunday, the department posted, “The Nancy Guthrie investigation is ongoing. Follow-up continues at multiple locations. No suspects, persons of interest, or vehicles have been identified.”

49ers’ Keion White Shot In San Francisco After Super Bowl, Non-Life Threatening Injury
Niners’ Keion White
Shot In San Fran After Super Bowl
Non Life Threatening Injury
Published
San Francisco 49ers DE Keion White was shot in the ankle Monday morning, just hours after the Super Bowl ended, with the 3-year NFL vet sustaining a non-life-threatening injury.
White, 27, is currently in a local hospital where he’s undergoing surgery.
The team confirmed the news in a statement to The Athletic, saying they will update his condition “when appropriate.”
The outlet went on to report that it happened during an event in San Fran, when an altercation occurred, which reportedly did not involve White, who was caught up in the gunfire.
”A preliminary investigation revealed a verbal altercation occurred between two groups inside a business,” a spokesperson for the SFPD said. “The victim was injured when shots were fired by an unknown suspect.”
It marks yet another NFL player to fall victim to gun violence in America. In November, Kris Boyd was shot outside a restaurant in New York City after a verbal argument.
In August 2024, White’s teammate, Ricky Pearsall, was shot and wounded after an attempted armed robbery in San Francisco.
White has yet to comment on the matter himself

New Netflix Crime Thriller With Big Western Energy Gets an Epic Season 2 Update
Likened to a blend of Yellowstone and True Detective, Netflix’s breakaway hit crime series Untamed made an impressive splash on the streamer in 2025, leading to a deserved second season renewal in late July. Debuting at #1 on Nielsen’s U.S. streaming chart, the series earned an eye-watering 2.1 billion minutes viewed in its first six days, with many praising Eric Bana’s lead performance as Special Agent Kyle Turner, who ended the finale by driving away from his home in Yosemite National Park, ready to embark on a new chapter in his life.
But where will this story go next? Untamed was an unquestionable hit, but many saw this story as a perfectly self-contained tale after the mysterious death of Lucy Cook (Ezra Franky) was solved. Considering the series was also initially planned as a miniseries, renewal news certainly brought smiles to faces but also raised some eyebrows. Thankfully, an exciting new production update has hinted at what fans can expect from Season 2, and it seems the show is going in a bit of a new direction.
As reported recently, Untamed Season 2 will officially take place in Hawaii, with Turner choosing this destination to tackle a new case. A brief logline reads, “The new installment follows Special Agent Kyle Turner (Bana) as he’s called to investigate a mysterious death in Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park, where local tensions and the volatile, living landscape become an unpredictable force.” Set to consist of six episodes, production is scheduled to begin this Spring. Series co-showrunners Mark L. Smith and Elle Smith are quoted as saying:
“We’re excited to explore the pristine landscapes and cultural identity of a very different national park, and find Turner in a new state of mind, outside the comfort of Yosemite.”
‘Untamed’ Was a Critical Darling
Although not all who watched it were blown away, the common consensus from critics was that Untamed is a triumph. On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the series earned a strong, “certified fresh” score of 83%, with audiences delivering a score of 71%. The critics’ consensus on the site reads, “Wrangled by Eric Bana’s steady star power, Untamed‘s solid murder mystery is elevated by the visually sumptuous backdrop of its Yosemite National Park milieu.” For those yet to dive into this thoroughly immersive drama, a synopsis for the first season reads:
“In the vast expanse of Yosemite National Park, a woman’s death draws a federal agent into lawless terrain, where nature obeys no rules but its own.”
Untamed is streaming on Netflix. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates on the second season.

Bold and the Beautiful 2-Week Spoilers Feb 9-20: Sheila Grows Suspicious While Will Reaches His Limit
Bold and the Beautiful 2-week spoilers for February 9 -20, 2026 suggest Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) is suspicious and Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) is disgusted.
Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Sheila Carter Suspicious
Monday, February 9th, we have Sheila trying to get romantic with Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan). It looks like she has a surprise for him, but I don’t see him getting intimate with Sheila because his heart now belongs to Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig). If Deacon is withholding intimacy when they’ve had such an active bedroom life, Sheila is going to get increasingly suspicious.
Kimberlin Brown did a recent interview and said that what happens when Sheila finds out about Deacon and Taylor is going to be really big. She says fans will not want to change the channel, and I am here for it. Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) orders Deacon to stay away from Taylor.
Although he doesn’t owe him anything, Deacon tries to explain to Ridge that he is deeply in love with Taylor and can’t stop seeing her. Ridge insists that it’s over between them and tells Deacon to stay away. After Deacon takes off, Taylor gets her two cents in with her ex.
She puts Ridge firmly in his place and tells him that after all the disappointment she’s experienced, this is real. They lift each other up, even though Ridge acts like Taylor is being ridiculous.
Taylor tells him she has been asking for and wanting this kind of commitment for years. Ridge is stunned because she now believes she has that with Deacon. She doesn’t care how Ridge feels about it and tells her ex that he doesn’t get to tell her who to love.
B&B Spoilers: Carter Walton’s Best Man and Daphne Rose’s Disco Bachelorette Party
Tuesday, February 10th, Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) asks Ridge if he will be the best man at his wedding. Ridge will likely say yes. This week, we will see Ridge and Carter hanging out and talking in the CEO office at Forrester. This seems to be in lieu of a bachelor party—just the two of them hanging out as best friends. They are also going to be talking in the Forrester Creations showroom, which is where we’re going to see the wedding.
Plus, Taylor and Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) are hosting a surprise disco bridal shower for Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire) at the Malibu house. We’re going to see two hunky guys doing disco dancing. Those two are from Dancing with the Stars, by the way. Daphne, Steffy, Taylor, and Donna Logan (Jennifer Gareis) are all going to be partying at Daphne’s bachelorette party.
They are all going to be dancing with these guys, who are looking very good. The ladies toast to Daphne and share some sweet moments. Steffy tells Daphne she’s going to make the most beautiful bride, and they prepare for the wedding over at Steffy’s place.
Will Discovers Ivy’s Blackmail and Dylan’s Secret Job on Bold and the Beautiful
On Wednesday, February 11th, Will is in complete shock when he finds out the actual reason Melissa Dylan (Sydney Bullock) moved out of the guest house at his beach house. It turns out Ivy Forrester (Ashleigh Brewer) told her to leave. Meanwhile, Deke Sharpe (Harrison Cone) gives Dylan a job at Il Giardino.
Dylan is working and winds up talking to Deke and Will out in the alley by the dumpster. And Dylan is upset when Will confronts her about lying about having a new job and leaving Los Angeles. Dylan was cornered, blackmailed, and trashed by Ivy, which forced her into lying. She’s going to have a breakdown, and I think she’s going to confess everything to Will.
B&B Spoilers: Carter and Daphne’s Runway Wedding at Forrester Creations
Meanwhile, Carter and Daphne’s wedding kicks off at Forrester Creations in the showroom. They are going to walk down the aisle on the runway on Thursday, February 12th. Daphne and Carter say their “I do’s” and are officially hitched. Zende Forrester Dominguez (Delon de Metz) will officiate the wedding, followed by a reception.
After that, it is time for the couple to start their family. Several couples will be there, including Steffy and Finn (Tanner Novlan), Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Ridge, and Donna and Eric Forrester (John McCook). I did not see Taylor in any wedding photos even though she was at the bachelorette party.
Also, Donna may be in a tough spot because Ridge may take some cheap shots at Logan and diss Katie Logan’s (Heather Tom) fashion house while they’re all together. Her lead designer, Eric, is sitting right there. He may have to bite his tongue to keep from spilling the beans that he is Katie’s lead designer if Ridge starts running his mouth again.

Ivy’s Lies Lead to Electra Forrester’s Ultimatum for Will on Bold and the Beautiful
Friday, February 13th, Daphne and Carter are husband and wife. They’re honeymooning, hitting the sheets, and they want to start a family immediately. Ivy, meanwhile, tells Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace) what she supposedly saw going on between Will and Dylan. Ivy didn’t actually see what she thought she saw. So, she gives a heavily interpreted version of things.
We’ll see Will, Dylan, and Electra all at Will’s house as Ivy tells her skewed story. She tells Electra she didn’t want her to find out what Will and Dylan are doing. But says it’s time the truth came out. Electra takes this all in hook, line, and sinker. After Ivy tells her tale, Electra hits Will with an ultimatum. She may tell him to stay away from Dylan or their relationship is over.
Will is not going to appreciate their attitudes or their lack of charity. I expect him to be disgusted with the accusations against him. Electra knows Will slept with Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada) while he was drunk, so there is a history of dishonesty, but Will is going to be really bothered by the implication that he’s been unfaithful with Dylan.
Liam Spencer’s Struggles with Eric’s Secret and Sheila’s Growing Suspicion on B&B
The week of February 16th through the 20th, Carter and Daphne settle into married life. We’ll see if they get a honeymoon; they should definitely go to France to visit Daphne’s family. Will is going to reply to Electra’s ultimatum. Ivy and Electra both seem to think they are in charge of what goes on at Will’s house.
I’m interested to see if he turns to his mom, Katie, for advice, as she was supportive of him offering charity to Dylan. We’re also going to see Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) struggling to keep Eric’s secret from Hope Logan (Annika Noelle). Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) was very insistent that Liam can’t tell Hope or Brooke.
To get the most return on investment, they want to make a big splash in the press. The success of the launch hinges on keeping it a secret that Eric is the lead designer. However, I feel like Liam is going to crack and tell Hope. Taylor and Deacon aren’t going to be able to stay away from each other despite Steffy and Ridge clamping down with threats.
Sheila gets increasingly suspicious of Deacon’s actions and starts snooping because he keeps going missing to spend with Taylor for “therapy sessions.” Plus, Will may have harsh words for Ivy for stalking and overblowing things, especially after she blackmailed a homeless girl.
Ridge and Steffy continue to stress over Taylor and Deacon, while Brooke may have a difference of opinion. Eric and Katie remain hard at work at Logan, and Bill keeps plotting against Ridge. Finally, we may see RJ Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti) asking Dylan out soon. The drama’s picking up!

Young and Restless 2-Week Spoilers Feb 9-20: Victor Claims Major Victory as Nick’s Life Crumbles
Young and the Restless 2-week spoilers for February 9 -20, 2026 hint Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) scores a huge win and Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) is suffering.
Young and the Restless Spoilers: Nikki Annoys Victor
Let’s jump right into it. Monday, February 9th: Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) wants Victor Newman to give her an update on Dominic Chancellor (Ethan Ray Clark), and she’s griping about Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) being kept away from Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) right now when he needs his sister.
Victor says that Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) wants proof that Lily and the twins are safe. And Nikki says she wants that, too. That really annoys Victor because he thinks Nikki doubts him. But Victor gets the photo and shows Nikki the picture, and then he forwards it to Cane.
Y&R Victoria Schemes to Take Down Phyllis and Help Victor
Meanwhile, Nick tells Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) and Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) that Detective Burrow (Matt Cohen) is working Dominic’s abduction case. Victoria doesn’t believe that Lily agreed to go along with Victor. Victoria Newman thinks she can prove Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) stole the AI. If she can get the proof to take to law enforcement, Victoria might be able to leverage Phyllis to flip on Cane to save herself. She thinks they need a backup plan.
Adam thinks that Victor offered Chancellor to Lily, but Victoria thinks he didn’t because that would ruin her parents’ marriage. Nick tends to agree with Victoria. But Adam tells them both Victor has been up late texting him, hasn’t been sleeping, and thinks that their dad would see giving up Chancellor as a small sacrifice if it saved the rest of the Newman Empire.
Victoria wants Nick to talk to Phyllis again and Nick admits to his siblings that he is still in a lot of pain. Victoria warns Nick to be careful with the medication. Then Victor texts them all saying come back to the ranch right now. He shows his three kids the photo and says Lily is safe and Cane is going to make a deal. Adam asks what Victor offered Lily, but Victor won’t answer. Another red flag; it might have been Chancellor.
Young and the Restless Spoilers: Claire’s Investigation in Los Angeles and the Newman Ranch Showdown
Meanwhile, Claire Grace Newman (Hayley Erin) goes with Holden Novak (Nathan Owens) to Los Angeles, but he quickly realizes that Claire came along primarily to dig up dirt on Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver). Holden tells Claire, “Look, you’re wasting your time.” Claire is also annoyed that Holden is doing something for Cane in Los Angeles. He said he’s looking into Lily’s possible kidnapping, but Claire is absolutely adamant that Victor wouldn’t do that.
Behind Holden’s back, Claire calls the art gallery that was owned by the guy that Holden accidentally killed. He gets the photo that Cane wanted and sends it over. It shows Lily and the kids with a sketchy guy and they are looking scared. Phyllis is gloating up at Newman Enterprises about stealing everything from Victor on Young and Restless.
But she and Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) are bickering about Cane giving Chancellor to Billy. Then Cane comes in and tells Billy he can’t sign the Chancellor contract yet. Phyllis and Billy keep sniping until Cane gets the photo of Lily and the twins from Holden. Billy takes off, but Phyllis stays and Cane tells her that Victor took Lily and the kids, but Phyllis says it is a bluff.
Victor wouldn’t hurt Neil Winters’ (Kristoff St John) family, but Cane doesn’t believe her. Phyllis keeps on saying he’s being played, but Cane leaves, runs over to the ranch, and tells Victor, “You won.” Cane wants proof that Victor has let the family go and then Cane will give Newman Enterprises back to Victor.
Y&R Spoilers: Phyllis & Billy Scheme for Chancellor as Mariah Flees Genoa City
Meanwhile, Phyllis runs over to Billy’s and says that Cane is caving in and giving everything back to Victor. So, Billy won’t get Chancellor unless he works with Phyllis and they act fast to grab it up, but they have to move now. Tuesday, February 10th: Victor Newman summons the whole family for a meeting. Some of this may be about Dominic. We’ll see. But I think most of it is going to be Victor saying his plan worked. He has defeated Cane. They’re going to be getting everything back.
Meanwhile, Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) is blaming herself for Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes) kidnapping Dominic. Obviously, Sharon thinks she didn’t check in on Mariah enough or visit her enough at the clinic in Boston. Elsewhere, and Billy are scheming against Cane because he has turned against them, caved into Victor’s bluff, and is signing assets back over. Billy wants Chancellor, and he and Phyllis may realize that it’s the only thing they can salvage when Cane starts giving Newman assets back.
Wednesday, February 11th: Abby Newman (Melissa Ordway) and Devon get a lead on Dominic and we’re going to see them working with Detective Burrow to take down Mariah and get Dom back. Speaking of those two, at a restaurant wearing matching trucker hats. We’ll see Dominic asking Mariah why she won’t tell him where they’re going.
She says that she’s taking Dominic to the best hideout in the world. Mariah says they are going to a whole different country. Something happens with Dominic where Mariah feels like she has to switch things up. So, we’ll see if she pivots and is still planning to take him out of the country or if she does something else.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Cane’s Medical Emergency and Nikki’s Desperate Plea to Jack
Thursday, February 12th: Victor uncovers shocking information about Cane. Victor’s in the bedroom of the Cane train as Adam walks in and is looking at Cane unconscious there. Adam asks Victor if he’s dead and he doesn’t answer straight away.
I wonder if Cane is so upset he got drunk and passed out. Maybe it’s alcohol poisoning. Billy and Phyllis get overheard by Victoria, and I’m sure it’s about Chancellor. Of course, Victoria is very insistent that Chancellor needs to come back to her mom.
Nikki goes to Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) and she’s quite distraught. Nikki may tell him about the fake abduction of Lily and the kids, but bottom line, Nikki’s frantic and telling Jack that she’s worried what Victor will do next. She is worried that if he goes too far, Nikki won’t be able to take it anymore and will have to walk away.
Jack’s comforting Nikki and hugging her right as Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) is walking in. She does not like what she sees, just like Victor didn’t like when he saw the same thing at his house.
Valentine’s Day Romance and a High-Stakes Private Jet Search on Y&R
Friday, February 13th: Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) goes all out for Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun). He’s not giving up. It looks like Noah may head to Los Angeles for Valentine’s Day. Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan) gets a romantic gesture from Adam for Heart’s Day. Billy is also going all out to woo and impress Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) and prove himself, but him conspiring with Phyllis to get Chancellor may be a deal breaker, even though he won’t be conspiring with Cane anymore.
The week of February 16th through the 20th, we are going to be seeing Burrow, Devon, and Abby on a private jet soon, and they are trying to chase down Mariah and Dominic. The good news is she’s driving and they’re on a plane, so maybe they can cut her off at the pass. Sally is very conflicted about Billy. And Sally loves him, but she feels like Billy is letting her down. Sally also, though, doesn’t want to walk away while Billy’s mom is sick and possibly dying, so she is really struggling.
Young and the Restless Spoilers: The Return of Patty Williams and Nick Newman’s Dangerous Spiral
Phyllis remains determined that she is going to get one over on Victor. Even though Cane may give back Newman Enterprises, Billy and Phyllis may decide that Chancellor is enough of a consolation prize for them. Diane loses patience with Jack and Nikki, and Noah’s heart is on the line.
He wants Sienna back, but I don’t think she’s going to back down on breaking up with him. She may tell Noah that he needs to leave Los Angeles and not come back, so he may return to Genoa City heartbroken. Claire makes progress in her search for dirt on Audra.
And it looks like Claire may indeed find out that the gallery owner was missing and presumed dead. I wonder if Sienna will help out with sharing more info. Nick is really struggling with his pain and by the end of Sweeps, he may be dabbling in illegal drugs. Sharon is worried about Mariah and racked with guilt. Look for Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) who is likely going to pop up with one last hurrah by the end of Sweeps.
Stacy Haiduk is back soon as Crazy Patty Williams. Paul Williams’ (Doug Davidson) sister, if you remember, was in Fairview Psychiatric with Sharon. She also has a history with Ian Ward (Ray Wise); she saved his life. Patty’s back in March. And Lily is also set to return in March.

Taylor Swift No Longer Trusts Blake Lively And Ryan Reynolds

Swift’s upcoming wedding to her longtime beau, Travis Kelce, is undoubtedly one of the most highly anticipated celebrity events, with rumors about its potential details swirling ever since the pop star reportedly got engaged.
Among the many points of speculation is who will make the guest list when the ceremony eventually takes place. While actress Blake Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, once seemed guaranteed an invitation, that may no longer be the case.
Reports now suggest the duo have been cut from the list, as Swift’s relationship with Lively has soured amid the ongoing legal drama involving the actress and her “It Ends With Us” co-star, Justin Baldoni.

“They are not invited. Period,” one insider said of Lively and Reynolds, according to journalist Rob Shuter’s #ShutterScoop. “Taylor wants a drama-free day, and she no longer trusts Blake or Ryan.”

The Singer ‘Felt Violated’ By Unsealed Private Messages Between Her And Blake Lively

Amid the ongoing legal saga between Lively and Baldoni, Swift has largely remained silent, despite allegations from Baldoni and his lawyers that she was one of the individuals his co-star used to pressure him into accepting Lively’s rewrite of their movie.
At the time, Swift, through her lawyers, denied having any involvement in the film and ultimately avoided being compelled to sit for a deposition after the judge denied Baldoni’s last-minute attempt to subpoena her.
The recent release of text messages between Lively and Swift has seemingly called the pop star’s earlier claims into question.
However, it appears that Swift is more concerned about the exposure of her private communications than the allegations themselves.

“Taylor felt exposed and violated,” said an insider. “That crossed a line for her.” As for Swift’s relationship with Lively, there is seemingly no hope of it being rebuilt, at least for now.
“There’s been an emotional gap for a long time,” a source notes. “Rebuilding trust doesn’t feel possible right now.”

Taylor Swift Felt Her Privacy Was ‘Impacted’ By The Leaked Text Messages

According to a source who spoke to People Magazine, the release of the text messages has left Swift feeling very “uncomfortable” as she believes her privacy was impacted.
“Taylor feels like her privacy was impacted,” the insider noted. “Anyone would be uncomfortable if their private texts were suddenly made public.”
Another source noted that the singer never anticipated the drama or being dragged into any controversy, as all she wanted to do was support her friend.
“She was just being a friend to Blake,” the source said. “It’s turned into something bigger than she ever expected. She never thought private messages would become public.”
So now, according to the insider, Swift is “just trying to stay away from the drama.”
The Singer Reportedly Changed Her Phone Number To Set Boundaries

Following the leaked messages, Swift reportedly changed her number, and the alleged reason was shared by a source.
“Taylor needed to set boundaries and protect her peace,” one insider told Rob Shuter’s #ShuterScoop about the decision. “She’s very private and doesn’t take kindly to people overstepping.”
While the move did raise questions at the time, a different insider claimed that it wasn’t “petty or dramatic” but was about Swift “reclaiming control over her life.”
One more source pointed out that only a few close people have access to the pop star’s new contact.
“This was a full reset,” said the source. “She’s in charge of who can reach her and when — and that’s how she keeps her sanity in Hollywood.”

Other A-Listers Have Been Dragged Into Blake Lively’s Suit

Beyond Swift, several other Hollywood stars have been dragged into the legal saga between Lively and Baldoni.
High-profile names such as Ben Affleck, his ex-wife Jennifer Lopez, and his close friend Matt Damon have been mentioned, a development that is said to have left them, along with other named A-listers, frustrated.
“The feeling is frustration,” an insider close to Affleck and Damon told Us Weekly. “There’s a sense of, ‘Why am I being dragged into this?’ It’s created unnecessary stress and irritation, and people feel like it’s become a black hole.”
Meanwhile, other celebrities acquainted with Lively and Baldoni are said to be worried that they, too, may be mentioned.
“Even those who have nothing to do with it are worried about getting mentioned or dragged into public speculation.”

Ricky Martin’s Youthful Face At The Super Bowl Sparks Chatter

The singer’s facial transformation especially caused so much chatter that experts have now weighed in on how he may have achieved a look that seemingly defies his age.

Ricky Martin Reportedly Didn’t Have Any Major Face Surgeries
Ricky Martin turned heads during his surprise Super Bowl halftime appearance, with many fans and commentators remarking that he looked surprisingly youthful for his age.
Although the singer has yet to admit whether he recently had any procedure done on his face.
Dr Sean McNally, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Portland, Oregon, believes that Martin did have some work done, but it’s not likely something major.
Speaking with the Daily Mail, the medical expert ruled out surgeries that involve a lift to a part of the face, as well as blepharoplasty. The latter is a surgery that involves the doctor cutting into the creases of the eyelids to trim loose skin and muscle and remove excess fat.

“To me it doesn’t appear that he’s had a major plastic surgery like facelift, neck lift, browlift, or blepharoplasty,” McNally shared with the outlet about the Puerto Rican singer.

The Singer Likely Used Fillers And Other Non-Invasive Procedures

Regarding the facial work Martin may have had done, McNally suggested that the singer might have used fillers or fat grafting to achieve better midface shape and volume.
Both procedures are known to be minimally invasive and are commonly used to add volume, alter facial contours, and fill in wrinkled areas.
The expert also noted that the Livin’ La Vida Loca artist displayed significantly improved “skin tone and texture.”
He added that this enhancement may also be the result of filler, particularly in the midface or jawline.
McNally went on to note that a strong skincare regimen likely played a role as well, along with the possible use of laser treatments to help prevent hyperpigmentation.

“The most likely culprits would be a skin care regimen that utilizes hydroquinone and lighter resurfacing lasers like Moxi or erbium as they’re more appropriate for difficult and reactive skin types,” he continued.

Ricky Martin Showed Support For Bad Bunny Ahead Of The Super Bowl Halftime Show

Days before stepping onto the Super Bowl stage with Bad Bunny, Martin heaped praises on the multiple Grammy Award winner for hitting a milestone at such a prestigious music event.
“Benito, brother, seeing you win three Grammy Awards, one of them for album of the year with a production entirely in Spanish, touched me deeply,” the singer remarked in Spanish.
He added, “Not only as an artist, but as a Puerto Rican who has walked stages around the world carrying his language, his accent, and his story. I know what it means to succeed without letting go of where you come from. I know how heavy it is, what it costs, and what is sacrificed when you decide not to change because others ask you to.”
