Influencer Ulissias Marcelli and her boyfriend Vinícius Souza de Carvalho were reportedly shot to death ahead of a festival appearance in Brazil.
The alleged murders were announced by Brazil’s Festival Rock Gaya, as Marcelli and Carvalho were scheduled to appear at the festival prior to their deaths at ages 30 and 28, respectively. (Marcelli was expected to host Festival Rock Gaya festivities on Saturday, July 25.)

Rest in peace Ulyssias.”
Per People and local outlets, civil police in Bahia, Brazil, confirmed that a farm worker found Marcelli and Souza de Carvalho’s bodies on a rural roadside in Porto Seguro on July 17. Gunshot wounds were reportedly visible on the late couple’s bodies.

Local outlet G1 reported that police suspect that Marcelli and Souza de Carvalho may have been held captive by their alleged killers before their murders. Investigators are looking into whether the alleged murders may be connected to drug trafficking and the sale of narcotics in the area.
Marcelli is survived by a 13-year-old son, according to G1. Her Instagram bio indicated that Marcelli was from the Porto Seguro area.
Marcelli grew a loyal fanbase of more than 20,000 Instagram followers with her ornate and elaborate styling and cosplay videos. She became known for an aesthetic that embraced gothic and modern horror elements.
She was also reportedly famous for her eye-catching live stage performances where she often incorporated fire into her choreographed routines.
Following news of her death, fans flooded Marcelli’s Instagram comments section to pay tribute to her life and legacy.
“Unfortunately, I only got to know this goddess after her demise. May Hekate keep her spirit with great glory,” a newer fan wrote in the comments section of Marcelli’s pinned Instagram post.
Another fan added, “May spirituality welcome you and your companion 😢 and take care of your child and kitten 😢 who’s going to pay!!! If you calm down, follow the light, everything will be alright.”
“Shocked, I really enjoyed seeing her posts, she was beautiful. God comforts the hearts,” a third fan wrote.
“I’m in disbelief 😭 ! One of my biggest inspirations, one of the most beautiful people I’ve ever seen. Rest in peace,” an admirer added in the comments section of another recent post.

Johnny Depp’s R-Rated Gothic Cult Classic Gets New Release Ahead of Sydney Sweeney Remake
Don’t lose your head, but Tim Burton‘s most horrifying horror movie is galloping on to a new physical media release this fall. One of his most successful collaborations with Johnny Depp, the film is his most straightforward gothic horror tale; and now, it will be contained in a handsome SteelBook.
Sleepy Hollow is coming to a 4K SteelBook on September 22. Loosely adapted from Washington Irving‘s The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Sleepy Hollow was penned by Andrew Kevin Walker (Se7en), and featured Oscar-nominated art direction, cinematography, and costume design. Burton crafted the film as an homage to the classic horror movies of Hammer Films, and boasts an impressive cast of character actors in its supporting cast, including Miranda Richardson, Michael Gambon, Ian McDiarmid, Michael Gough, and Hammer’s own Dracula, Christopher Lee. The film was successful with critics and audiences, garnering a 71% Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes and earning $200 million USD at the box office. The SteelBook also includes a director’s commentary from Tim Burton, the making-of documentary Behind the Legend, and the retrospective featurette Reflections on Sleepy Hollow.
What Is ‘Sleepy Hollow’ About?
Depp stars as Ichabod Crane, a detective with a dark past who’s dispatched to the rural burg of Sleepy Hollow in 1799 to investigate a series of gruesome decapitations. The locals believe the killings are the work of the Headless Horseman, a local legend of a spectral mercenary who was decapitated in the Revolutionary War. Unlike in some tellings of the tale, this Horseman is all too real: he’s an undead Hessian with a mouthful of gnarly teeth, a detachable cranium, and the chilling visage of Christopher Walken. However, there’s an unseen hand controlling the Horseman, and Crane’s head is the next one on their list. Meanwhile, Crane has found romance with local spiritualist Katrina Van Tassel (Christina Ricci), whose family is deeply entangled with the Horseman. Crane is running out of time to solve the mystery, or heads are going to roll…
The Headless Horseman will ride again. Hollow, a new interpretation of the classic tale by Pet Sematary: Bloodlines‘ Lindsey Anderson Beer, is in the works at Sony Pictures; Sydney Sweeney is set to star as Katrina, a woman caught up in a supernatural love triangle.
Sleepy Hollow will be available in a 4K SteelBook on September 22. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.

Jason Statham’s R-Rated Action Movie Is Officially One of Prime Video’s Biggest Hits
Jason Statham has to be the single most dependable action when it comes to action movies, and streaming, as a deadly double bill. Even when one of his films struggles to find an audience in cinemas, it rarely stays overlooked for long once it reaches viewers at home, and his latest thriller is proving that point to a tee.
After disappointing at the box office earlier this year, Shelter has officially become one of Prime Video’s biggest movies worldwide, which isn’t a massive surprise because people love binging Statham on streaming, whether it be punching prehistoric sharks, doing drugs off a bathroom floor to keep his heart racing for medicinal reasons, or punching a second prehistoric shark. That gives Shelter an unexpected second life following its underwhelming theatrical run, with audiences now discovering the 107-minute thriller months after its wintry release.
What’s ‘Shelter’ About?
Directed by Ric Roman Waugh, Shelter stars Statham as Michael Mason, a retired MI6 operative living alone on a remote island, basically because he really doesn’t want to be bothered or even receive mail. His carefully isolated existence is disrupted when he selflessly rescues a young girl named Jessie following an accident at sea, but that decision to leave the island exposes his location to his former superior, Stephen Manafort, who has been using a surveillance programme to track him. When armed operatives arrive to take both of them out, the former assassin is forced to return to the violent life he attempted to leave behind. And that’s why we love him. The cast also includes Bodhi Rae Breathnach (The Capture) as Jessie and Bill Nighy (Living) as Manafort.
Collider’s Nate Richard opined in his review of the movie that “Shelter will give Statham devotees exactly what they’re looking for,” although adding, “It isn’t particularly memorable, nor will it launch a franchise, but did it ever need to?”
Shelter earned approximately $53 million worldwide against a reported production budget of $50 million, which fell well below Statham’s recent hits. The Beekeeper earned more than $162 million worldwide, while A Working Manfinished with approximately $89 million.
Jason Statham’s Shelter is available to stream now on Prime Video worldwide. Make sure to stay tuned to Collider for the latest streaming updates.

One ‘Odyssey’ Actor Actually Turned Down Christopher Nolan and Still Got the Part
Two-time Academy Award-winning filmmaker Christopher Nolan is putting one of the world’s oldest epics, The Odyssey, on screen with a murderer’s row of talent. As is Nolan’s modus operandi, he accomplished this completely in IMAX 70mm, and it was all captured on location, across the globe, taking advantage of some of Earth’s most spectacular landscapes. For any actor, being offered an audition to take part in one of Nolan’s endeavors is a no-brainer, so who among the Greek poem’s ensemble refused the invite — and still made it onto the roster?
It goes without saying that The Odyssey is stacked with talent. Oscar-winners Matt Damon and Anne Hathaway lead the charge as Ithaca’s King Odysseus and Queen Penelope, with Spider-Man: Brand New Day star Tom Holland as their son and heir, Telemachus. For Odysseus’s 10-year voyage across the Mediterranean Sea, he meets a host of characters, friends and foes alike — some with very minor moments in Homer’s tale — and all are brought to life by an ensemble of stars. The movie features Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Jon Bernthal, Lupita Nyong’o, Elliot Page, John Leguizamo, Charlize Theron, Himesh Patel, Mia Goth, and many more.
With The Odyssey officially setting sail in theaters, Perri Nemiroff had the opportunity to sit down with one of those stars, Logan Marshall-Green, who plays Melanthius, for a new episode of Collider Forces, where they revisited some of his most memorable roles to date, and discussed how recently joining Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone universe, in CBS’s Marshals, continues to exceed his expectations. For this episode, however, all roads lead back to Ithaca, and Marshall-Green took us on his own odyssey, beginning with the harrowing reason behind his turning Nolan’s audition down.
Logan Marshall-Green Never Regrets Trusting His Instincts
“I got called cocky a couple of times.”
While chatting with Nemiroff about the start of his career, Marshall-Green admits, “I got called cocky a couple of times.” He’s referring to a specific few instances when he turned down roles early on — for personal reasons — and was met with pushback. He goes on to reveal that an executive once told him, “You’re the kind of actor who says no. It’s going to ruin your career… You won’t get far in your career by saying no.”
“She’s right. If you just say no, you won’t get anywhere. But if you say no, you are saying yes to your availability to other things. You can’t do everything, but you can follow your gut and your heart.”
It’s a valuable lesson he’s carried with him ever since. And clearly, he’s doing something right, because his career, despite the exec’s vaguely threatening piece of advice, eventually took him all the way to Favignana in southern Italy, where he stepped into Nolan’s The Odyssey to “be a part of the dream.”
Why Logan Marshall-Green Said No to Christopher Nolan
“Two months later, I definitely was kicking myself…”
Marshall-Green has nothing but admiration and kind words for Nolan, who he agrees is one of Hollywood’s leading filmmakers still championing the spectacle and craft of moviemaking. In fact, he tells Nemiroff, “You could have told me I was going to hold a spear in the back, and I would have been fine with it because I wanted to bear witness to the process.” But after his initial audition, which he explains was a self-tape over Christmas time in 2024, Marshall-Green had to refuse Nolan’s callback for an in-person audition with a heavy heart.
“I got a call saying that he wants you to come in for a callback, but L.A. was on fire, and I had some reps who were dealing with it directly, and I couldn’t bring myself to do it. I couldn’t bring myself to fly in. I mean, it was a dream come true callback, but I couldn’t… I couldn’t do it, and I said no to the callback and decided that just wasn’t for me — whatever that role was. I didn’t even know what it was. And two months later, I definitely was kicking myself and just having second thoughts about it for a few months.”
In January of 2025, devastating wildfires raged across Southern California, destroying homes and livelihoods. The fires were so destructive that the magnitude of their effects wouldn’t be fully realized until much later. For Marshall-Green, it was a difficult decision, but a clear one, whereas in L.A., business had to carry on as best it could. The actor even points out that the situation was eerily indicative of Hollywood’s grim situation post-COVID, post-AI, post-streaming, saying:
“Don’t get me wrong, Chris is probably the only person who can still have auditions while L.A. burns. It’s somewhat symbolic in many ways, because while the rest of the business is going that way, Chris is still at the forefront of filmmaking.”
How Logan Marshall-Green Received an Unexpected Second Chance
Turns out, following your gut pays off.
Marshall-Green admits it was a choice that haunted him for months, but eventually, he made peace with it. Then, a change of plans rewarded him with a twist of fate poetic enough for a Greek epic.
“I remember I was walking with my partner in Charleston, and I remember thinking, ‘I’m really happy.’ I remember stopping her. We were in downtown Charleston, and I just stopped her and said, ‘I’m really, really happy.’ And that’s it.
Then we got back, and that night, my team called and said, ‘Do you want to go to Italy in 48 hours to join The Odyssey?’ They let me know somebody had fallen out, and that Chris and Emma [Thomas] were hoping I would take up this role. And like I said, I was available. I’d been saying no to some stuff, thank God, and I said, ‘Yeah, I’ll be there.’ That was the audition process.”
Don’t miss Marshall-Green’s full conversation in the video at the top of the article, where he takes us behind the scenes for his on-set experience reuniting with past co-stars like Bill Irwin and Holland, and working with and fangirling over Leguizamo.

Clayface Cover Story Reveals New Details on DC’s Dark R-Rated Horror Film : Coastal House Media
The DC Universe continues to grow, and one familiar hero is officially joining the next chapter.
According to Variety, Xolo Maridueña is set to reprise his role as Jaime Reyes/Blue Beetle in James Gunn’s upcoming Superman: Man of Tomorrow, marking the character’s first appearance alongside David Corenswet’s Superman in the rebooted DC Universe.
Maridueña first debuted as Blue Beetle in the 2023 standalone film, and despite the DC Universe reboot, James Gunn previously confirmed that the character would remain part of the new continuity. His return in Man of Tomorrow officially delivers on that promise and gives fans another familiar face as the franchise continues to expand.
Superman [credit: Warner Bros.]
During an interview with Variety, DC Studios co-head Peter Safran praised Maridueña’s performance in the original Blue Beetle, explaining why the actor was always part of the studio’s long-term plans.
“What I was most impressed by is his ability with both the comedic and the emotional material. He has all the skills,“ Safran told Variety.
Safran went on to explain that Jaime Reyes is a unique superhero because the role requires balancing humor with genuine emotional weight as the character struggles to protect his family while adapting to his newfound powers.
“It’s just very evident that this is a star-making performance,”
Safran added.
While specific story details remain under wraps, Superman: Man of Tomorrow is expected to see Superman reluctantly team up with his longtime enemy Lex Luthor, played once again by Nicholas Hoult, to confront the looming threat of Brainiac. The sequel is scheduled to arrive in theaters on July 9, 2027, and filming has been underway since earlier this year.
Blue Beetle’s inclusion further reinforces DC Studios’ interconnected approach under James Gunn and Peter Safran. Rather than treating each hero as isolated, the new DC Universe is steadily bringing its growing roster together, with characters crossing between films and television as the shared universe continues to take shape.
For fans of Blue Beetle, the news confirms that Jaime Reyes’ journey is far from over. After years of uncertainty surrounding the future of the character following the 2023 film, Maridueña is officially back in action and ready to fight alongside Superman in one of DC’s biggest upcoming releases.

John Cusack R-Rated Crime Thriller Keeps The Mystery Hot To The End
By Robert Scucci
| Published

If you thought that Nicolas Cage was the only A-list actor who spent a considerable amount of time occupying direct-to-video territory in the 2010s, you’re gravely mistaken. John Cusack’s career followed a similar trajectory during this time, and the Say Anything actor found himself starring in a dozen films that would not be released theatrically, but rather get picked up as an afterthought at the Redbox outside of your local grocery store. 2014’s The Bag Man resides among these titles, and although Cusack is supported by Robert De Niro and Rebecca Da Costa, it’s one of those strange neo-noir crime thrillers that you probably missed out on.
The Bag

The Bag Man was originally released as The Carrier, and as the updated titles suggests, there is a mysterious black bag involved and we’re not sure what it contains. John Cusack portrays a killer-for-hire named Jack, who is tasked with securing and containing the bag until his employer, Dragna (Robert De Niro), can meet him at a seedy motel and retrieve it. Dragna makes it very clear that Jack is not to look inside the bag under any circumstances or he will be killed.
Jack checks into room 13, as instructed by Dragna, and awaits further instructions, but he’s not alone. He encounters an escort named Rivka (Rebecca Da Costa), and she immediately starts asking questions about the bag that he has hidden underneath his motel bed. Having already been ambushed by a number of Dragna’s men, one of which is now dead and sloppily stuffed into the back of Jack’s car, Jack remains tight-lipped and armed, as he has good reason to not trust anybody he encounters during his mission.

Taking place primarily inside of room 13, The Bag Man is a claustrophobic film that explores themes of paranoia and moral ambiguity in the kind of setting that will make your skin crawl. The motel lighting flashes in red and blue, which bears a striking resemblance to an approaching cop car (of which there are plenty), which only adds a sense of confusion to the narrative. When Jack does leave the room, he encounters the nosy wheelchair-bound motel owner, Ned (Crispin Glover), and two thugs named Lizard and Guano, who are all suspicious of his activities.
A Thriller That Deserves A Second Chance

At face-value, The Bag Man has all the mechanics of a solid neo-noir film, but its third-act reveal leaves a lot to be desired. But within the oppressively small world this film takes place, there’s a solid story that is absolutely worthy of your time if you enjoy the kind of low-budget crime film that doesn’t get a wide theatrical release.
Unfortunately, The Bag Man was not exactly what we would call a warmly received title despite the talent involved with the production. Critics and audiences alike were quick to brush this crime thriller under the rug, and their respective 11 percent and 23 percent critical and audience approval ratings on Rotten Tomatoes drive this point home.

Not unlike season 2 of True Detective, The Bag Man isn’t as terrible as the reviews make it out to be, and you can place partial blame on expectations versus execution. John Cusack spent decades portraying extremely likable characters in various romantic comedies, and Robert De Niro’s range runs the gamut from serious mobsters in films like Goodfellas to the quirky but nightmarish father in-law in the Meet the Parents franchise. If you go into watching The Bag Man expecting performances that are reflective of Cusack’s and De Niro’s past work, you’re probably going to be disappointed.
But still, The Bag Man is an interesting, dark and gritty exploration of a job gone wrong under questionable circumstances. If you want to find out what’s in the bag and the suspense is killing you, you can rent the title on-demand through YouTube, Apple TV+, Amazon Prime Video, and Fandago as of this writing.

George Takei’s Health Journey Changes Iconic ‘Star Trek’ Message
George Takei has spent decades telling fans to “live long and prosper,” but aging and caring for his late mother have transformed what those famous words mean to him.
Now 89 and using a wheelchair himself, the “Star Trek” legend believes the Vulcan greeting should acknowledge more than longevity or success. His experiences have taught him that growing older also requires gratitude, acceptance, and an appreciation for life’s blessings.

Takei discussed his evolving perspective in an exclusive interview with AARP’s Movies for Grownups ahead of the July 23 premiere of “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds” Season 4 on Paramount+.
The actor’s outlook was shaped in part by caring for his mother as her health declined. Takei recalled pushing her wheelchair around the block and playing a memory game recommended by her doctor. At first, she remembered each item they passed during their walks. Over time, however, her memory began to fade. “Now I use a wheelchair,” Takei said. “That’s the cycle of life. She showed me how to live that portion of our lives.”
Takei did not disclose a specific diagnosis or explain why he currently uses a wheelchair. Instead, he focused on what his mother taught him about accepting the later stages of life. That experience also changed his understanding of the phrase that has followed the “Star Trek” cast for nearly six decades.
“‘Live long and prosper’ should include gratitude,” Takei said. “Gratitude for the blessings we have.”
The Vulcan Greeting Carries A New Message

“Live long and prosper” remains one of the most recognizable expressions associated with “Star Trek,” often accompanied by the famous split-fingered Vulcan salute. Leonard Nimoy introduced the gesture while playing Spock in the original series. He drew inspiration from a blessing he witnessed while attending an Orthodox Jewish synagogue as a child.
The salute first appeared during the episode “Amok Time,” when Nimoy believed the Vulcans needed a distinctive greeting. What began as a creative decision rooted in the actor’s heritage eventually became a universal symbol of peace, hope, and goodwill.
Takei’s interpretation now adds to that legacy. His comments suggest that a long life should not only be measured by its duration or accomplishments but also by a person’s ability to recognize what the years have given them.
It is a message that feels especially personal as Takei considers his mother’s declining health, his own mobility changes, and the six decades he has spent connected to the franchise.
George Takei Reveals Why Playing Sulu Was So Important

Takei’s reflections arrived as “Star Trek” prepared to celebrate the 60th anniversary of its 1966 television debut. Before becoming known around the world as helmsman Hikaru Sulu, Takei faced an entertainment industry that offered few meaningful roles to Asian actors.
“It was the first time that I was being asked to portray a character that was fully developed,” Takei said. “It was a human being, not a cartoon or a stereotype. This was an identifiable, sharp, intelligent member of a Starfleet team. I desperately wanted to be a part of that show.”
‘Star Trek’ Continues To Reach New Generations

Takei has watched “Star Trek” grow far beyond the original three-season series that introduced audiences to Hikaru Sulu. The franchise now includes films, animated projects, streaming shows, books, podcasts, and conventions. Its next chapter arrives when “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds” returns for its fourth season on Thursday, July 23, on Paramount+.
Takei believes that continued expansion reflects the loyalty of viewers who discovered the original series and later shared it with younger generations. “’Star Trek’ is a family show,” he said. “Our most steady audience members are grandpas and grandmas.”
He describes the franchise’s many spinoffs as “children and grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren. So it appeals to all the generations of our audience group,” he said. “’Star Trek’ itself is living long and prospering.”
After nearly six decades, Takei is doing the same. However, his experiences with caregiving, aging, and changing mobility have taught him that living long and prospering means more than simply accumulating years. For him, it also means recognizing the people, opportunities, and blessings that made those years meaningful.

Dark Netflix Sci-Fi Thriller Turns Marvel’s Best Hero Into A Villain
By Britta DeVore
| Published

2020 was a busy year for Chris Hemsworth. Not only was he working alongside filmmaker and actor Taika Waititi on Thor: Love and Thunder, but he was also squeezing in days to film the 2022 Netflix thriller, Spiderhead, with director Joseph Kosinski.
Hemsworth’s roles in each film couldn’t have been more different than one another. In Love and Thunder, he reprised his role as the sarcastic and chatty God of Thunder, whereas in Spiderhead, he played a sinister scientist conducting experiments on prisoners.

On paper, Spiderhead was a pretty big grab for the streamer. Not only does it star Chris Hemsworth, but it also featured leading performances from Miles Teller and Jurnee Smollett (Lovecraft Country). It also marked a reunion between Teller and its helmer, Joseph Kosinski, as the pair welcomed another blockbuster success in the summer of 2022 when Top Gun: Maverick soared into theaters, resurrecting the box office following its COVID slump.
Dark Experiments

Based on George Saunders’s short story, “Escape from Spiderhead,” which was first published in The New Yorker, the film centers around prisoners at a top-secret penitentiary located on an island in the middle of nowhere.
While it may seem like a gorgeous place to fill out your sentence, the horrors and crimes against humanity that carried on inside the walls are truly the stuff of nightmares. Chris Hemsworth’s doctor, Steve Abnesti, carried out experiments on the inmates, using mind-altering drugs to put them into traumatic situations – all in the name of healing.

Turning to one of the most beautiful places in the world to act as the filming location for Spiderhead, the production team picked up their cameras and started filming in Queensland, Australia. You can see these recognizable spots all over the country, from the Gold Coast to Darlington and even Whitsundays – a spot known for drawing in tourists from all over the world.
This also helped Chris Hemsworth pull off a leading role in two projects at the same time as Thor: Love and Thunder was set up in Sydney, Australia, allowing him to travel from one set to the other much easier than if they were in separate countries.
Spiderhead Failed To Impress Critics

Despite what, by all appearances, should have been a critical success, Spiderhead met mixed reviews upon its arrival on Netflix in June 2022. By all means, the movie tried to nab the attention of Chris Hemsworth, Miles Teller, and Joseph Kosinski’s already-set audience, but it didn’t quite manage to hold its head above water. While it was a bummer for everyone involved, the summer wouldn’t be a complete washout as Hemsworth found success with Love and Thunder, and Teller and Kosinski broke records with Top Gun: Maverick.
For fans of either of the film’s leading men or its director, giving Spiderhead a shot on Netflix is still worth the time – especially if you’re a fan of mind-bending sci-fi films that keep you on your toes. It’s also exciting to see Chris Hemsworth in a villainous role as we’ve become so accustomed to seeing him joining the rest of the Avengers in Marvel films and playing the good guy in other flicks like the Extraction franchise and Men in Black: International. You can find Spiderhead now streaming on the platform alongside Netflix’s vast collection of sci-fi fare.

The Book Behind Apple TV’s Biggest New Hit Is on Sale Right Now
All eyes were on the 78th annual Primetime Emmy Award nominations earlier this month, and the usual surprises and snubs didn’t disappoint.

Fox taking his first nomination since 2016, and Jason Bateman earning a surprise Best Actor nod for Black Rabbit.

Speaking about the renewal, called playing the titular Margo, “one of the greatest joys of my life.” She added, “Having the opportunity to bring more of Margo’s troubles, creativity, fearless spirit, and authenticity to audiences with a second season makes me incredibly happy and excited. I can promise everyone they’re in for a wild, messy, and beautiful ride.” The series also features Michelle Pfeiffer (Taylor Sheridan‘s The Madison), Nick Offerman, Oscar-winner Marcia Gay Harden, Greg Kinnear, Michael Angarano, Rico Nasty, and Lindsey Normington.
The Perfect Way to Celebrate ‘Margo’s Got Money Troubles’ Emmy Success is Here
Want to find the best way to celebrate this Fanning victory? You’re in luck, as Thorpe’s novel, on which the show is based, is currently available on Amazon for a limited time at a reduced price. Usually available for $24.99, you can get the paperback version for just $17.99 right now. Hardcover copies remain at $34.30 with a Kindle edition available for $11.99. This brilliantly feel-good tale was adapted for Apple TV with finesse by David E. Kelley, although much of the credit for the near-perfection of the series must go to Thorpe’s novel.
Margo’s Got Money Troubles is streaming on Apple TV. Make sure to stay tuned to Collider for all the latest stories.

Jelly Roll’s Daughter, Bailee Ann DeFord, Says Internet Will “Crumble” The Day She Speaks On Her Dad & Bunnie XO’s Divorce
According to Page Six, Bailee Ann DeFord took to TikTok live on Sunday, July 19. During her stream, she reportedly defended her dad against apparent comments before referring to his divorce.
“Don’t y’all ever come for my father’s name like that again. I’m so done. Get the f**k out of my DMs, out of my comments, my life with that s**t. I don’t care. I don’t want to talk about it,” she reportedly said.
From there, DeFord reportedly said that neither her dad nor Bunnie XO cheated. However, she added, “Y’all have no f**king idea what happened, and wait ’till y’all find out. Just **king wait. Because I promise y’all, the view of what y’all have of not only the situation, but their relationship and the internet in totality is about to f**king crumble the day that I open my mouth.”
“It’s not a difference in f**king opinions. Nobody else lived in it, so don’t f**king even. I’m for real, so done. Good? Everybody good? We’re on the same page? Cool,” she reportedly concluded, per PEOPLE.

The filing was revealed in June, and around that time, Bailee Ann DeFord spoke out, chastising the public for being so invested in her and her stepmom.
“Oh & one more thing, I am disgusted at how invested everyone is in a very clearly private family matter. It’s fkn crazy. Go on somewhere, y’all. Worry bout your house- not mine. I’m not speaking on it – yet,” she wrote via her Instagram Story at the time.
Later that month, Jelly Roll broke his silence on the matter, per The Shade Room. He said that there was no infidelity involved in the downfall of his marriage. Additionally, he noted that despite their divorce, he and Bunnie XO are still best friends.
“We will always be best friends,” he reportedly said.
Another Revelation Is Shared Amid Jelly Roll & Bunnie XO’s Divorce
According to PEOPLE, Bunnie XO and Jelly Roll’s divorce was finalized in early July.
“There was never any desire to drag the process out. They both wanted to handle the divorce with respect for one another. He’s a very generous person by nature and wanted to make sure the divorce was handled fairly and respectfully,” a source reportedly told the outlet.
Per the outlet, the pair will split “items including their homes, cars, an aircraft, and their intellectual properties.” Additionally, Jelly Roll will reportedly make a one-time lump sum payment to Bunnie.
Moreover, despite their split, the pair is still planning to welcome a baby together via IVF, per Page Six. Per an exclusive report from the outlet, the former couple has been given “warnings” regarding welcoming a child together.
