Ridley Scott’s Body of Lies follows CIA agent Roger Ferris in his grand but highly dangerous attempt to capture terrorist Al-Saleem. Think James Bond, but a bit less suave and a bit more gritty. Scott’s work is an adaptation of David Ignatius’s best-selling novel of the same title, wherein one CIA Agent attempts to pull his enemy out of hiding through an unending trail of deceit. The film features a heavily star-studded cast, including but not limited to: Leonardo DiCaprio, Russel Crowe, and, of course, the beloved Oscar Isaac.

After the modest success of Ridley Scott’s Black Hawk Down, Body of Lies seems to have inadvertently fallen into its shadow. Just short of twenty years later, it has earned a respectable smattering of applause from audiences, but the ever-disagreeable critics have found the film a bit lackluster. Despite the criticism, Body of Lies is certainly deserving of flowers, both for the expert acting chops and, of course, the wondrous directorial work from the unforgettable Ridley Scott.

The Wonderfully Bombastic world of ‘Body of Lies’

Because of the names attached to the film, it’s tempting to call it “satire”. There’s also a desire to say this is Ridley Scott’s take on America’s impact on the Middle East. In actuality, this film is simply a deeply entertaining, albeit slightly cartoonish, blockbuster made for surface-level action enjoyment. There’s little nuance, or really any call for active attention. Hence why, some critics found it so, so, and yet audiences reacted favorably.

Essentially, DiCaprio plays the pensive, brooding Roger Ferris, a CIA operative attempting to juggle a seemingly infinite well of lies and complete his highly dangerous mission all at once. After his primary adversary, Al Saleem (Alan Abutul), and his much larger terrorist group continually sidestep Ferris’s meek attempts at technological warfare and mini-bombardments, he decides he must opt for a rogue, boots-on-the-ground route. And thus, Ferris must now not only placate his superior, Ed Hoffman (Russel Crowe), but also draw out his enemy while secretly putzing around his territory. DiCaprio’s charming, slightly southern drawl as he pushes up against the buttoned-up disposition of Hoffman as he wages a war, thousands of miles away, offers a compelling B-plot of sorts in between the explosive action.

Ferris’s plot thickens further as he is forced to handle a puzzling relationship with the head of Jordanian intelligence, Hani, played by Mark Strong. Additionally, Ferris finds himself a local love interest, Aisha, portrayed by Golshitfeh Farahani, perhaps as Ridley Scott’s directorial attempt to humanize the innocents living on enemy lines. In summary, both the plot and Ferris’s plate are beyond full, and perhaps arguably overfilled with conflict, and even one misstep will cost Ferris his life.

‘Body of Lies’ is Ridley Scott’s most Underrated Thriller

Image via Warner Bros.

As of June 18, 2026, Body of Lies has a passable 62% on Rotten Tomatoes. The reasoning behind the low rating is likely twofold. First, when making a project with Ridley Scott, not to mention the highly decorated cast members, the standards are impossibly high. This is the creator of revolutionary films like Thelma and Louise, Alien, Gladiator, the list goes on literally infinitely. This inventive take on the war thriller drama genre fell flat in comparison, because how could it possibly not? Even the best filmmakers don’t always produce projects that remain a pillar of cultural reference. Additionally, it can be argued that despite the thrilling espionage and the coiling story of deception captured in Body of Lies, it does tread a bit close to blurry plot disorientation. However, with that being said, does this film certainly remain a thrilling journey of deeply entertaining close calls and turmoil? Yes, absolutely.

In summary, this forgotten combat picture deserves more recognition than has been offered. In just 128 minutes, both Scott and the cast alike portray an incredible story that still remains just as sickly entertaining nearly a decade and a half later. This film, while perhaps a bit larger-than-life at times, took a swing at attempting to capture the reality of war while still remaining exciting and light. Among the ending Rolodex of Ridley Scott projects, Body of Lies should surely be remembered.

The detective show is one of the most entertaining TV genres. Whether it be a procedural with weekly mysteries or a series with one ongoing mystery per season, these shows draw viewers in with compelling storylines and shocking plot twists. Detective procedurals see one main character – either a detective, a police consultant, or a private investigator – using their unique skills or experience to solve crimes each week that nobody else could.

Meanwhile, other detective series with ongoing storylines will slowly entangle an overarching mystery over the course of each of their seasons. Great detective shows balance exciting mysteries with a focus on their characters, particularly their crime-solving protagonist and the complications of their job or unique skill. These are the detective shows that are 10/10, no notes.

‘High Potential’ (2024–Present)

Image via ABC

Based on the French-Belgian series HPI, High Potential follows Morgan Gillory (Kaitlin Olson), a woman with High Potential intellect. Morgan is a mother with three kids, and she works as a night cleaner for the LAPD. One night, while cleaning the Major Crimes division, Morgan notices an inconsistency in the murder board. Unable to let it go, she fixes the issue herself, which leads to Major Crimes bringing her on as a full-time consultant.

One of the best subgenres of the detective show is the type where a quirky consultant with a unique skill that helps them solve crimes in a way that the police can’t. High Potential takes this concept and runs with it in the best way. Each week, Morgan solves a murder or other major crime alongside her partner, Detective Adam Karadec (Daniel Sunjata). Every weekly murder mystery is compelling on its own, and ends in a shocking murder reveal. The series also has a major overarching mystery: 15 years before the start of the series, Morgan’s boyfriend and the father of her first child suddenly disappeared. Now, with the LAPD on her side, Morgan is determined to find out what happened to him.

‘A Man on the Inside’ (2024–Present)

Image via Netflix

A Man on the Inside is a hilarious and heartwarming dramedy series that follows Charles Nieuwendyk (Ted Danson), a widower and retired professor. Charles is only becoming more isolated with each passing day, and his daughter, Emily (Mary Elizabeth Ellis), is concerned about him. At the same time that Emily suggests that Charles get a job or a hobby, he stumbles upon a newspaper advertisement from Private Investigator Julie Kovalenko (Lilah Richcreek Estrada). Julie is looking for someone who can go undercover as a resident in a retirement community, and Charles turns out to be just the person for the job.

Charles has neither the experience nor the personality type to be a spy, but his outside perspective winds up benefiting him on the job. A Man on the Inside is a hilarious fish-out-of-water story, but it’s also really touching, as it sees Charles slowly finding a community for himself again for the first time since his wife’s death. Each season so far has a compelling central mystery that sees Charles going undercover to investigate, and they both build up to excellent reveals that keep viewers guessing until the very end.

‘Rizzoli & Isles’ (2010–2016)

Image via TNT

Rizzoli & Isles is a crime procedural that follows the partnership of Detective Jane Rizzoli (Angie Harmon) and her forensic pathologist best friend, Dr. Maura Isles (Sasha Alexander). For both Jane and Maura, their jobs are pretty much their whole lives. Jane isn’t interested in letting anyone else in, and Maura has a hard time connecting with people. The two of them get each other, though, and they work really well together. With the combination of Jane’s expert investigative skills and Maura’s knowledge of the clues that a dead body can reveal, they’re able to solve murders that nobody else can.

Rizzoli & Isles is one of the darker and grittier detective shows. It doesn’t shy away from showing the heavy realities of Jane and Maura’s jobs, and they regularly work on brutal and disturbing murder cases. Rizzoli & Isles is a deeply entertaining series that will keep viewers engaged with both weekly murder mysteries and a number of twisty overarching storylines. It’s also a darkly funny show with sharp writing and excellent banter between Jane and Maura.

‘Veronica Mars’ (2004–2019)

Image via UPN

Veronica Mars follows a teen detective named Veronica Mars (Kristen Bell). The series picks up after the once-popular Veronica has lost pretty much everything following the murder of her best friend, Lilly (Amanda Seyfried). Nobody knows for sure who did it, and after accusing the wrong person, Veronica’s sheriff father, Keith (Enrico Colantoni), has gotten them both ostracized from the rest of their small town.

Keith soon opens his own private investigative firm, and Veronica helps him solve cases. Each episode shows her working on a different weekly case, while also slowly trying to get to the bottom of an overarching murder mystery for that season. In Season 1, Veronica investigates Lilly’s murder, particularly after discovering that the man who was imprisoned for killing her did not actually do it. Veronica Mars is an excellent detective series with dark storylines, fantastic writing, and a compelling and nuanced protagonist.

‘Castle’ (2009–2016)

Image via ABC

Castle is another fantastic procedural about the unlikely partnership between a serious detective and a consultant who thinks out of the box. Rick Castle (Nathan Fillion) is a wildly successful and famous author who writes murder mystery novels. This has naturally gone to his head quite a bit, and he enjoys it all a little too much. When a serial killer starts killing victims by reenacting murders from Castle’s books, the NYPD reaches out to him for help on the case.

What starts out as just one case turns into a regular arrangement, and Castle becomes a consultant for the NYPD. He partners up with Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic), and each episode, the two of them solve crimes together. Castle is a fun and often silly procedural that also has a number of suspenseful storylines and compelling weekly mysteries, and it makes for an excellent binge-watch.

‘Pushing Daisies’ (2007–2009)

Pushing Daisies is a detective show set in a cozy, fairytale-esque world. It follows Ned (Lee Pace), a piemaker with a secret: barring some very specific rules and conditions, Ned can wake the dead with a single touch. When he’s not running his pie shop, Ned helps private investigator Emerson Cod (Chi McBride) solve murders, by waking the victims and asking them who killed them. Each episode shows Ned and Emerson solving a different outlandish and over-the-top murder, and often, the victims’ reveals aren’t much help to them.

When Emerson’s latest case is an investigation into the murder of Ned’s estranged childhood sweetheart, Chuck (Anna Friel), he wakes her up to ask her who did it. Even though Chuck doesn’t know, Ned finds himself unable to touch her back to death, and the two reunite for the first time in almost two decades. Chuck sticks around and adjusts to life as an undead person, while she and Ned get to know each other again as adults. The only problem is, they can never touch, or she will go back to being dead forever.

‘Psych’ (2006–2014)

Image via USA Network

It’s hard to find a better detective show out there than Psych, even if its protagonist is far from a detective. The hilarious procedural follows Shawn Spencer (James Roday Rodriguez), a man who lacks drive and focus, but has a photographic memory – and phenomenal attention to detail that was honed for years by his detective father (Corbin Bernsen). Shawn solves crimes better than the police do, and will occasionally call them to give tips about who did it. When he flies a little too close to the sun, Shawn is accused of committing the crime he’s trying to solve, so he saves face by pretending to be a psychic.

What starts as an impulsive way to get himself out of trouble turns into a new job for Shawn. With the help of his best friend, Gus (Dulé Hill), Shawn opens a psychic agency that regularly consults on cases for the Santa Barbara Police Department. Each episode sees Shawn and Gus teaming up to solve a different case together, all while Shawn has to do the additional work to convince the people around him that he’s solved the case using his psychic powers.

BunnaB is one of the newest rap girlies making her mark in hip-hop. Last year, she took over the summer with viral tracks like ‘Lil Innit,’ ‘Bunna Summa,’ and ‘Mad Again,’ leaving fans eager to see what she had in store for 2026. The rapper ended up sparking a viral TikTok challenge with her latest release, ‘Best B**tch,’ earlier this year.

But while BunnaB kept a smile on her face, many supporters had no idea about the personal struggles she was facing behind the scenes. Recently, the rapper opened up about one of the toughest periods of her life while celebrating a major milestone with her family.

BunnaB Surprises Her Mom With A Brand New Home

On Wednesday, BunnaB took to social media to share that she had surprised her mother with a new home. In a heartfelt video, the rapper is seen dancing alongside her mom as they celebrate the special moment with family.

Alongside the post, BunnaB reflected on the milestone, writing, “half a mill on you bby girl love you mommy! Thank you God for everything.” The rapper also shared additional photos and videos featuring her siblings, adding, “Dang y’all, I bought my mama a house today! The day I’ve been dreaming of. She raised all 10 of us by herself! Had to give you the world! #LongLiveMyDaddy.”

BunnaB Opens Up On Nearly Giving Up Music And What’s Next For Her Career

While celebrating a major milestone for her family, BunnaB also took a moment to open up about the challenges she has faced behind the scenes. The rapper revealed that this year has been one of the toughest of her life, saying she has struggled to balance music, family, and everything in between. Despite the challenges, BunnaB said she is coming back stronger than ever and is preparing to release new music, visuals, and more for her supporters. In her post, she wrote:

“Y’all don’t understand how blessed I am. I know a lot of y’all have been asking, ‘Where’s the summer song?’ Truth is, this year has been one of the toughest years of my life. I’ve been trying to balance music, family, and everything in between, and at one point became so overwhelmed that I almost gave up on what I love most.

During the month of May, my baby brother was battling craniopharyngioma and had to undergo brain surgery. Watching someone you love go through that changes your whole perspective on life.

My mom has always been there for everybody else’s children, always giving, always helping, and always showing up when people need her. All I ever wanted was to be able to give her the world in return.

Through it all, God has continued to bless us, and I’m beyond grateful. Thank y’all for being patient with me and supporting me through this season.

But trust me… I’m coming back stronger than ever. New music, new visuals, new shows—everything is on the wayyyyy!”

Young and the Restless hints of about some couple swaps and shakeups coming soon, including Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) considering a shocking new romance that could ignite a family feud. Plus, Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) may pursue a bizarre crush on a sketchy guy.

Plus, there’s a few dramatic reunions coming driven by tragedy and second chances. We’re going to get into what is coming for Kyle and Phyllis and Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic) and many others.

Young and the Restless: Kyle and Victoria’s Unexpected Romance

And now, let’s talk about romance and pairings and reunions on Y&R. Right off the bat, and I’m sure you already know this, headwriter Josh Griffith has a tendency to let promising romantic pairings just die on the vine. Like for instance, with Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) and Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) going nowhere. Same with Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) and Nate Hastings. And of course, on top of that, there’s the ick of Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) forcing herself on Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) again.

You know, with Victoria and Nate, they renewed their friendship. They sparked a little and then they fell off the radar as a pair. So, I do want to start with Victoria. She’s been enabling Victor Newman’s (Eric Braeden) awful antics and dealing with Nick’s addiction and now with Nikki Newman’s (Melody Thomas Scott) ongoing health issues.

Young and Restless: Victoria Needs Romance

So, also Victoria hasn’t had any romantic action pretty much since Cole Howard (J. Eddie Peck) died last year. She and Nate got closer when the two of them were sharing grief because his brother Damian Kane (Jermain Rivers) had been murdered and then Cole died of Legionnaire’s disease that in real life kills pretty much nobody.

So, Victoria is long overdue for romance and I suspect Y&R may intend to pair her with Kyle Abbott, which I’m totally down for. It definitely seems like Kyle and Victoria’s bickering could lead to romance, maybe the bedroom. Nate and Victoria haven’t sizzled in a long time. In fact, they fizzled and it was kind of a waste of time.

And since Young and the Restless keeps throwing Kyle together with Victoria, I suspect they could be chemistry testing them. And now that Jack is vowing revenge on Victor for bringing Patty to town and Diane Jenkins Abbott (Susan Walters) going missing, we’ve got the Abbott versus Newman feud heating up on both sides.

Y&R Twist: Kyle and Victoria’s Romeo & Juliet Story

So, if Young and the Restless pairs Kyle with Victoria, they would have a whole like Romeo and Juliet vibe, you know, some Westside Story type of action with Kyle and Victoria falling in love against all odds with both their families against the match. And honestly, if Kyle wants revenge on Victor, dating Victoria would be a good way to get it.

Plus, it would be extra soapy because Victoria was married to and shares kids with Kyle’s uncle, Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson). Plus, Kyle’s last big romance was with Victoria’s daughter, Claire Grace Newman (Hayley Erin). But since Josh Griffith likes the whole elder woman, younger man vibe right now, I could see Kyle and Victoria going for it.

Young and the Restless: Nate & Audra’s Second Chance

Next, let’s talk about Nate, who hasn’t been alone with Victoria in forever. So, I think that pair is dead. He’s at loose ends. And if you remember, Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) was prodding Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) to take a second look at getting with Nate since he is incredible. And Sally told Audra to go for it with him and forget about Noah Newman (Lucas Adams).

Plus, it looks like that Noah is going to stick with his older love Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun). Despite Audra turning up to sniff around Noah and flirt with him, it seems like Sienna and Noah are staying together, at least for now. So, I think Nate is a much more viable option for Audra. and she and Nate just had a very nice moment at Crimson Lights.

Also, it’s clear to me that Audra and Nate have hotter chemistry than her with Noah or him with Victoria. And a ton of fans really liked when Audra was with Nate. And of course, Audra did him wrong with the dirty deal that she cut with Victor.

Audra & Nate 2.0 on Y&R

But let’s be real, Nate is not always a good guy. He slept with Elena Dawson (Brytni Sarpy) when she was with Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) and he still forgave Nate. And Nate was with Elena when he started cheating on her with Victoria and she forgave him. So, Nate’s had second chances, third chances. That’s why I can see him giving Audra another chance. Plus, she was so good with Amy Lewis (Valarie Pettiford). And when Audra was with Nate, she was softer and less ruthless.

But of course, Victor tempted her to turn vicious and power hungry. But hopefully she learned her lesson. And if Nate gave Audra another chance, I think Sally would tell her, “Go for it.” I could see her telling Audra, “You better grab Nate with both hands. He’s a catch.” I think it could also be really cute with Sally and Billy doing double dates with Nate and Audra. I would be there for all of that, especially if Victoria is meant to wind up with Kyle. So, I think Audra and Nate version 2.0 would be a really good pairing. I would like to see him back with Audra and them in a loving, healthy relationship.

Plus, Nate knows firsthand that a romance with Victoria is going to bring irritating Newman interference, and I don’t think he wants to deal with Victor that way again. So, Audra, of course, would have to prove herself to Nate, but I think she could earn a second chance with him.

Young and the Restless: Victor & Nikki’s Reunion and Lily & Cane

And then another thing to talk about, we’ve got Victor and Nikki who have been split up for three months now. She asked Victor not too long ago about whether they could get back together. And he told Nikki, “Sure, we can get back together as soon as you cut Jack Abbott out of your life for good.” But Nikki is unwilling to get rid of her oldest friend. So, she and Victor are at an impasse. But Nikki’s in bad shape medically with those headaches intensifying and her vision deteriorating.

So, Victoria is pressuring her mom to go to the doctor. And when Nikki does, she gets a scary diagnosis, and that sends Victor running back to her side to see Nikki through this, and it’s going to trigger their reunion. Also, Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) and Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) have been kissing and warming up. I expect more canoodling, and that Lily and Cane are an officially reunited couple during July sweeps. I think Lily is going to wind up over at Cane’s place and in between his sheets with him very soon. and Devon and the other haters who don’t like Lily being with Cane are just going to have to deal with it.

Young and the Restless: Phyllis & Matt Clark’s Unexpected Connection

And now I want to talk about Phyllis Summers. So, if you remember, her last sort of romantic interest was Cane, but their pairing wasn’t even really romantic. It was all about revenge and him trying to get over Lily. And with Cane off the market, we’ve got Phyllis again at loose ends. But she has some kind of weird thing with Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) going on.

Even knowing what he did to Sharon back in the day, Phyllis was worried about what Victor would do to Matt when he got a hold of him. She was actually trying to protect him. And in a way, Phyllis and Matt are a perfect match for each other because nobody else in Genoa City would be willing to date either of them at this point.

Young and the Restless: Phyllis & Matt May Pair Up

But, you know, in all seriousness, Matt and Phyllis do have a vibe. And since Young and the Restless seems to be redeeming Matt despite his icky past, and they’re going to keep Roger Howarth around, which is great because I like him as an actor, you know, despite Matt’s horrible past. So, yeah, be on the lookout for more scenes with Phyllis and Matt, and maybe some sparks flying between them. I wouldn’t hate it. But I just don’t like the idea of them redeeming a rapist, but they’re obviously going to do that anyway.

I also expect to see Holden Novak (Nathan Owens) and Claire getting more serious and Jack fighting against Patty who might drug him into bed again. But in the end, I do anticipate Jack and Diane are happily reunited despite this awful plot. But either way, I’m expecting some hot new pairings, some dramatic reunions, and some couple shakeups that maybe we weren’t even expecting on Young and the Restless. 

Whew! Jelly Roll had the crowd locked in during a recent show as he finally stepped forward to clear the air on everything fans have been speculating about within his personal life. In a rare moment on stage, he addressed the noise head-on, giving fans clarity on where things really stand between him and Bunnie XO. Though, it left some wondering whether he was confirming or shutting down the divorce rumors circulating online.

Jelly Roll Addresses Viral Photo With Daughter

In a TikTok post shared on June 5, Jelly Roll included a photo of himself alongside his 18-year-old daughter Bailee, both flashing their middle fingers in a carefree moment. The overlay text read, “Can’t believe my life right now I feel on top of the world,” pulling directly from his feature on Latto’s track ‘Mama.’ But the comments quickly spiraled, with users assuming the post targeted his personal life and recent split from Bunnie XO—despite no mention of her in the video. However, on June 17, Jelly Roll shut the speculation down directly in the comments, making it clear the timing was misunderstood.

“This wasn’t posted today it’s just going viral today, it is not a response to anything. All this post meant was I love my daughter and I’m honored to be on Latto’s song. Love y’all,” he wrote, putting the rumors to rest and reminding fans that sometimes a post is just a post.

For years, Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO appeared to be one of country music’s most resilient couples, weathering personal struggles, career changes, and intense public attention together. Their love story survived challenges that might have broken many relationships.

Now, as their marriage comes to an end, new details are emerging about the difficult road that led to their separation and the heartbreak left behind.

News of Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO’s divorce came as a shock to many fans who had watched their relationship evolve over nearly a decade.

While reports suggest the split was mutual, one insider believes the most painful aspect of the breakup is everything Bunnie endured while standing by her husband’s side.

“The sad part is that Bunnie stood by him through everything,” a source told Page Six. “She was there before the fame, before all the awards, before his sold out shows. She stayed through some incredibly difficult periods, including challenges that would have ended a lot of marriages.”

Despite the heartbreak, the source stressed that there is still a deep connection between the former couple. According to the insider, Jelly Roll and Bunnie ultimately reached a difficult realization about their future.

“Jelly Roll and Bunnie eventually had to be honest with themselves that they weren’t building the same future anymore,” the source explained.

Even with the marriage ending, those close to them reportedly believe there remains a “tremendous amount of love” between the two.

Jelly Roll And Bunnie XO Faced Growing Differences

While no single issue appears to have ended the marriage, people close to the couple believe their lives gradually began moving in different directions.

One source previously told Page Six that friends and associates noticed changes in the dynamic between them over time. According to the insider, some observers “felt there was growing tension as Jelly embraced a more faith-centered lifestyle while Bunnie continued building the outspoken and provocative brand that had always been authentic to her.”

The source added, “Whether that’s fair or not, it became increasingly difficult to reconcile those two worlds.”

As Jelly Roll’s popularity continued to soar, balancing personal values, public expectations, and separate career paths reportedly became increasingly challenging.

Past Struggles Continued To Cast A Shadow

The former couple had already faced significant obstacles long before the divorce filing.

In 2018, they briefly separated after Jelly Roll admitted to a months-long affair. Although they eventually reconciled and rebuilt their marriage, insiders suggest some lingering issues never fully disappeared.

Reflecting on the pressures they faced, a source explained, “When you add in the pressure of fame, constant public scrutiny and then the unresolved issues from the earlier years of their marriage, including trust issues they worked hard to overcome, it created a situation where they kept finding themselves having the same conversations over and over.”

Those recurring difficulties reportedly became harder to ignore as both continued navigating increasingly demanding careers.

The divorce filing became public this week after legal documents revealed that the singer, whose real name is Jason Bradley DeFord, filed on May 18 in Williamson County, Tennessee. Court records cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split.

Jelly Roll Divorce News Sparks Public Attention

The timing of the divorce revelation quickly fueled speculation online.

Just hours before the filing became public knowledge, Bunnie XO shared a glamorous photo of herself wearing pink satin lingerie. Alongside the image, she posted a message that many followers later interpreted as symbolic.

“She’s getting her sparkle back,” Bunnie wrote.

The following day, reports emerged that a moving truck had been spotted outside the couple’s Tennessee home. It remains unclear whose belongings were being moved.

Their relationship began in 2015 after meeting at one of Jelly Roll’s concerts. The pair secretly married in Las Vegas in August 2016, the same night he proposed. They later renewed their vows in 2023.

Throughout their marriage, Bunnie also embraced a parental role in the lives of Jelly Roll’s children, daughter Bailee Ann and son Noah Buddy.

Family Responds To The Split

As public interest intensified, Jelly Roll’s daughter Bailee Ann addressed the attention surrounding the family.

Rather than discussing the divorce itself, the 18-year-old used TikTok to express frustration over how closely people were following the situation.

“I am disgusted at how invested everyone is in a very clearly private family matter,” she wrote.

Bailee then urged followers to focus on their own lives rather than her family’s personal struggles, adding, “Worry about your house – not mine.”

Although many hoped she would provide additional details, she made it clear that she was not ready to speak publicly about the breakup.

“I’m not speaking on it – yet,” she added.

For now, both Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO appear to be moving forward separately after nearly ten years together.

Tom Hanks created an unexpected viral moment during the ceremonial opening of the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago when a brief exchange with a television reporter quickly turned into one of the event’s most talked-about moments.

The Oscar-winning actor’s playful but pointed remark sparked laughter, criticism, and a flood of online reactions, putting the spotlight on a media network’s struggles and Hanks’ trademark wit.

The unexpected exchange unfolded shortly after Tom Hanks arrived at the opening ceremony on Thursday.

MS NOW Senior National and Political Correspondent Jacob Soboroff was livestreaming from the event when he approached the actor in hopes of securing a quick interview.

“Great to see you,” Soboroff said while trying to get Hanks’ attention.

Initially occupied, Hanks eventually turned toward the reporter after some persistence. Rather than answering questions immediately, he opened with a remark that caught everyone off guard.

“What can I do for the 800 people watching MS NOW?” Hanks joked.

The comment appeared to reference the network’s declining television audience and immediately changed the tone of the interaction.

Soboroff responded with a smile and reminded the actor, “Oh, come on. We’re live on MS NOW.”

Tom Hanks And The Reporter Trade Playful Barbs

The exchange didn’t end there. After Soboroff pushed back, Hanks fired off another quip.

“All right – add a zero to it,” he replied in a deadpan manner.

The reporter quickly countered by saying, “I would say millions now that you’re on our air.”

At that point, Hanks appeared ready to move on from the joke.

“All right. All right,” he said before answering questions about the event itself.

The moment lasted only seconds, but it was enough to capture the internet’s attention. Clips of the interaction quickly spread across social media platform X, generating hundreds of thousands of views within hours.

For many viewers, the brief exchange became more memorable than the event where it occurred.

Online Reactions Split Over The Viral Moment

As the clip circulated online, reactions came from every direction.

Some viewers found the actor’s comments hilarious and praised his sense of humor. Others felt the joke crossed a line and criticized the actor for taking a swipe at the network during a live broadcast.

One social media user wrote, “Asking Tom Hanks for a comment these days is like a box of chocolates….you never know what you’re gonna get.”

Not everyone was amused. “Pretty arrogant, Tom. Not a great look,” another commenter posted.

A third critic added, “Hanks was always a whiny, immature and twisted liberal.”

Supporters were equally vocal. “Tom immediately with a banger,” one fan wrote.

Another user commented, “He goofy with those jokes,” while someone else praised the interaction altogether, saying, “The entire interview was awesome.”

The Network Behind The Joke

The joke landed against the backdrop of real challenges facing traditional cable television.

Like many linear television networks, MS NOW has experienced audience declines over the years despite recent efforts to strengthen its position.

According to the Daily Mail, the network currently averages roughly 900,000 viewers, down from averages that exceeded 1.1 million viewers in 2016.

As changing viewing habits and cord-cutting continue reshaping the industry, the network has undergone major changes. It was renamed from MSNBC in November as part of a broader corporate restructuring effort following its separation from Comcast.

Today, the channel operates under Versant, a media company focused primarily on domestic cable properties. Other networks under its portfolio include CNBC, Golf Channel, E!, Syfy, and Oxygen.

Against that backdrop, Hanks’ quip resonated with many viewers already familiar with the changing television landscape.

The actor will return as Woody in “Toy Story 5,” which arrives in theaters on June 19.

Speaking with PEOPLE in New York last month, Hanks expressed enthusiasm about returning to one of Pixar’s most beloved franchises.

“Oh my Lord, all I can say is the saga continues,” he said.

The original “Toy Story” debuted in 1995 and became a global phenomenon, launching one of animation’s most successful franchises. More than three decades later, Hanks remains amazed that the journey is continuing.

“I have seen it. I don’t know how they do it, but it is a vibrant and proper chapter in the Toy Story canon,” he said. “None of us can believe that we’re still a part of it.”

The new film will see Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Jessie, and the rest of the gang facing a modern challenge as technology competes for children’s attention.

Director Andrew Stanton previously explained the central conflict by saying, “In Toy Story 5 the toys’ jobs get exponentially harder when our toy crew goes head to head with what kids are obsessed with today: electronics.”

The New York Knicks’ Parade & French Montana Gives Back

According to abc7NY, the Knicks’ celebration parade commenced in New York City on Thursday, June 18.  At this time, it’s estimated that more than 1 million people attended, and things concluded with a “Key to the City” ceremony on City Hall Plaza.

In addition to the Knicks having a grand celebration, a taxi cab owner may also be celebrating. According to CBS News, French Montana exclusively shared that he presented Noureddine Bitat with a $75,000 check after New Yorkers swarmed his taxi and smashed his windshield following the Knicks’ championship win.

“I just saw a man trying to feed his family,” French, who reportedly raised the money with YouTuber Zachery Dereniowski and the New York Taxi Workers Alliance, told the outlet.

Per French, Bitat reportedly told him that he no longer wants to drive a taxi. Therefore, the money will go towards assisting him with his living expenses “until he figures out what he wants to do.”

“I asked him, ‘Does he even watch the Knicks?’ He said, ‘I don’t even know what the Knicks is.’ He just happened to be working around the place, and you know, things unfortunately happened to him. He doesn’t deserve it. So we all came together to help,” French stated.
