Carmen Electra Reacts to Nation’s Dumbest Elimination
Carmen Electra is sharing her honest reaction to her Wednesday, August 5, Nation’s Dumbest elimination.
“I mean, you know, listen, I was absent,” the former Baywatch star, 54, exclusively told Us on Tuesday, August 4 — just one day before she was eliminated from Fox’s new reality competition series.
According to the model, she was MIA for some of the classes testing contestants’ long-buried classroom knowledge, as well as some of the fast-paced physical challenges. Perhaps, those absences impacted her performance.
“It may have had to do with a little bit of a Scary Movie kind of situation,” she added. (Electra has a cameo in the upcoming movie after captivating audiences in the opening scene of the original Scary Movie, later returning for 2006’s Scary Movie 4.)
Electra was one of many celebs who signed on for the unique game show, for which the smartest celebrity graduates each episode. The goal is not to win a prize, but rather to avoid finishing last and take home “The Nation’s Dumbest” title.
“They’re really strict about you know being late,” she added, revealing it’s been “bittersweet” to call it a wrap because she was able to have fun filming alongside fellow contestants Steve-O, Hilaria Baldwin, Anthony Michael Hall, Chase Hudson, Ice-T, Elle King, Matt Leinart, Dr. Drew Pinsky, JoJo Siwa and Andrew Yang.

“I was sad right and relieved at the same time but I had a feeling that people were really gonna miss me,” she revealed to Us. “I’m a sore loser, so I’m gonna give you all of that stuff, and then when I win, I’m like, ‘Hey!’ I’m jumping around.”
Electra admitted that while she had fun during her short-lived stint on the series, she was initially hesitant to partake in the show.
“School? Was not into it,” she told Us. “I was into my dance classes because I went to performing art school. I was in ballet and that stuff. It was fun for me, so I did really good, you know, and obviously sex ed,” the star added. “I got an A-plus in that one, but other than that, like it was a struggle.”
Fortunately, she was able to tap into her competitive nature, revealing to Us, “I grew up in a competitive family. My mom was a third-degree black belt in Jiu-Jitsu.”
“My dad was a black belt,” she said, sharing more about her upbringing. “I grew up in, you know, doing dance competitions, kind of like Dance Moms.” Electra noted, “I started doing that when I was 5 years old, and by the time I was 8, I had over 100 trophies.”
Electra said her appearance on Nation’s Dumbest certainly came with another bonus, as fans were able to see her in a relatable new light and enjoy her sense of humor.
“That’s why when I did the very first Scary Movie, it really made sense for me because that’s how I’ve always made people laugh at me,” she told Us. “That movie showed people that I have a good sense of humor, that I don’t take myself serious.”

North West’s New Song Turns Dark After Tour Setback
At just 13, North West is taking a dramatically darker creative turn. The daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West has unveiled a horror-inspired visual for her latest single, “Aishite,” blending eerie imagery with lyrics centered on betrayal, isolation, and emotional pain.
Rather than relying on celebrity headlines, North leans into unsettling storytelling, delivering a music video that leaves viewers talking as much about its haunting message as its chilling visuals.
North West’s newest release on Instagram is far from a typical teenage pop song. Throughout “Aishite” which means “love me” in Japanese, the young artist repeatedly returned to themes of loneliness and emotional hurt while asking for acceptance.
The opening verse immediately set the tone as she rapped, “Ayy, ain’t nobody finna save me / Ayy, and it’s drivin’ me crazy (Crazy) / Why can’t I escape? ’Cause they chase me (They chase me) / Just love me, everyone betrays me.”
The emotional intensity continued as she added, “I’m seein’ blood daily (Daily)/ What? And it’s drivin’ me crazy (Crazy)/ Yeah, can’t escape ’cause they chase me.”
Rather than presenting a carefree anthem, North used the track to explore feelings of being pursued, misunderstood, and unable to trust those around her.
North’s Horror-Inspired Visual Brings The Song To Life

Directed by Ty Akimoto, the music video matched the song’s unsettling mood with striking horror-inspired imagery.
Set largely inside an abandoned-looking school and an arcade, the visual followed North West as she wandered dimly lit hallways sporting neon blue pigtails.
One of the video’s biggest moments came when the camera slowly approached her before revealing a shocking transformation: her face appeared without eyes, a nose, or a mouth, creating an eerie jump scare.
She also sported a black grill, adding another distinctive visual element to the production. The rapid editing between the school and arcade sequences kept the unsettling atmosphere intact until the video ended with a flashing white title screen.
North West’s First Headlining Tour Ends Before It Begins
The recent music video release comes a few days after North’s highly anticipated first headlining tour came to an abrupt halt, with the young star canceling her 14-date Kimokawaii Tour alongside rapper Molly Santana just days before the opening show in Dallas.
The tour, announced in June following the pair’s performances at Rolling Loud Miami and Lyrical Lemonade’s Summer Smash, was scheduled to kick off in Dallas on August 5 before making stops in Houston, Chicago, Toronto, New York, and Los Angeles through August 27.
However, fans soon noticed the official tour website had been taken offline, while Ticketmaster marked multiple dates as canceled and venues began confirming the shows would no longer take place.
One San Francisco venue briefly continued listing its August 25 stop before uncertainty spread there as well.
Kim Kardashian Showed Her Support For North West’s Tour Before It Was Canceled

A few weeks before the plug was pulled on the 14-date run, Kardashian made sure North West’s tour received plenty of attention on social media.
As PEOPLE reported, the reality star enthusiastically promoted the Molly x North Kimokawaii Tour on Instagram by reposting the official tour poster to her Stories and asking fans, “Are you ready?”
The mom of four also shared photos of North and Santana together on her main Instagram feed, writing, “Kimokawii tour. Ticket link on my story @northwest @mollysantana.”
Kris Jenner also threw her support behind North’s first headlining tour by reposting the official Molly x North Kimokawaii Tour announcement to her Instagram Stories and directing her followers to the ticket link.
North West Breaks Silence With New Promise Following Tour Cancellation

Although the debut tour didn’t go as planned, North assured fans that they still had something to look forward to. In a now-deleted Instagram story post, the singer addressed fans, expressing disappointment.
“I was really excited to go on tour w Molly Santana sadly it isn’t happening anymore,” North revealed per The Blast, acknowledging how much she had been looking forward to the 14-date run.
Although she did not reveal why the shows were canceled, North promised supporters that she had “something special” planned for the future before signing off with, “See ya soon.”
Santana also broke her silence and made sure to acknowledge the fans who had already invested time and money into the planned performances.
The rapper apologized directly to ticket holders in an Instagram Story, writing, “To everyone who bought tickets to the tour, I sincerely apologize.”
Santana ended her message by promising to make it up to fans, writing, “I love y’all so much & promise I will make this one up to you.”

Warner Bros. Boss Backs James Gunn’s DCU After Supergirl Flop
Supergirl may have fallen well short of expectations at the box office, but Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav is making it clear that the studio remains confident in the future of James Gunn and Peter Safran’s DC Universe.
During Warner Bros. Discovery’s latest earnings call, Zaslav was asked about the state of DC following the disappointing theatrical performance of Supergirl. Rather than signaling a change in direction, the Warner Bros. Discovery boss pointed toward the unpredictable nature of the entertainment industry and the projects DC Studios already has in development.
“Media is by nature a business full of hits and misses,” Zaslav said.
The comments come after Supergirl, starring Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El, struggled to find a sizable audience in theaters. The film opened to approximately $37 million domestically and ultimately finished its theatrical run with around $125 million worldwide against a reported $170 million production budget.

Those numbers make Supergirl a significant financial disappointment for Warner Bros. and an early setback for Gunn and Safran’s rebooted DC Universe. However, Zaslav does not appear ready to judge the future of the franchise based on the performance of a single film.
“We have a robust pipeline,” Zaslav said while discussing what is coming from DC Studios.
One of the biggest projects in that pipeline is Man of Tomorrow, Gunn’s follow up to 2025’s Superman. Zaslav revealed that Gunn is currently focused on the upcoming film and said he has already seen material from the production.
“James is now focused on Man of Tomorrow,” Zaslav said, adding that he recently saw images from the film and that it “looks fantastic.”
Man of Tomorrow will bring David Corenswet back as Superman alongside Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor. Gunn has previously teased an unusual dynamic between the longtime enemies, revealing that Superman and Lex will be forced to work together, at least to some degree, against a larger threat.
The film is quickly becoming one of the most important projects in the early years of the new DCU. Gunn’s Superman successfully launched the theatrical side of the franchise in 2025, while Supergirl demonstrated just how difficult it can be to turn lesser established DC characters into major theatrical draws.
That doesn’t necessarily mean the DCU itself is in trouble. One unsuccessful movie rarely determines the fate of an entire cinematic universe, particularly this early in its lifespan. But Supergirl does put additional pressure on upcoming projects to prove that audiences are interested in exploring the wider DC roster beyond characters like Superman and Batman.
Superman Man of tomorrow [Warner bros.]
Warner Bros. also has more opportunities to build that audience. DC Studios has several projects moving forward across film and television, including Lanterns, Clayface and eventually The Batman Part II under the separate DC Elseworlds banner.
For now, Warner Bros. appears committed to staying the course.
Rather than reacting to Supergirl by immediately restructuring its DC plans, Zaslav’s comments suggest the studio understands that building a new cinematic universe will inevitably come with successes and failures. The real question will be whether Gunn and Safran can turn those individual projects into a franchise audiences consistently want to follow.
Man of Tomorrow could provide that answer sooner rather than later.
The film is currently scheduled to hit theaters on July 9, 2027.

2026’s Next Great Horror Slasher Turns the Last Thing You’d Expect Into a Killer
Summary
- Collider’s Perri Nemiroff chats with Jane Schoenbrun for Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma.
- Schoenbrun discusses the fight to get their third film greenlit, MUBI’s support, and sharing their vision with their cast and creatives.
- They also break down Camp Miasma‘s epic oner, the design for Little Death, and reveal which scene was left on the cutting room floor.
If there’s one thing that’s certain, it’s that horror creators are going to have fun with the genre, whether the project is widely welcomed or not. Particularly, writer and director Jane Schoenbrun, who burst onto the scene with 2021’s We’re All Going to the World’s Fair, before dazzling audiences at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival with their acclaimed follow-up, I Saw the TV Glow. Now, after yet another mystifying uphill battle, as they tell Collider’s Perri Nemiroff, for that coveted green light, we’re returning to Schoenbrun’s whimsical world with Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, starring Gillian Anderson (The X-Files) and Hannah Einbinder (Hacks).
Influenced by ‘80s movies like Friday the 13th and Sleepaway Camp, Schoenbrun’s latest puts an irreverent spin on a genre that often amasses cult followings. In the movie, Einbinder plays a young filmmaker, Kris, who’s been given the task of rebooting the Camp Miasma slasher franchise for a diminishing fandom after years of sloppy sequels. While researching for the project, Kris connects with the original film’s “final girl,” Billy (Anderson), a reclusive actress living on the campsite where the movies were filmed. Together, the two experience a sizzling connection of desire and delirium, leading to a blood-soaked awakening for Kris. Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma also stars Zach Cherry as Will, Dylan Baker as Jeffrey, Jasmin Savoy Brown as Mari, Patrick Fischler as Rudolph, and reunites Schoenbrun with TV Glow’s Jack Haven as Little Death.
Check out the full conversation with Schoenbrun in the video above, with a transcript provided below, where they discuss how MUBI stepped in to help make this ambitious story into an on-screen reality, and the creatives around them who helped elevate their vision. Plus, find out how they crafted the final design for Little Death, and which scene Schoenbrun was “bummed” didn’t make it into the final cut.
Jane Schoenbrun Says Queer Liberation Isn’t a Hot Selling Point in Hollywood
“It’s funny, it’s sexy. It’s a good time at the movies, but it’s not getting easier.”
PERRI NEMIROFF: I want to keep the train going from when we last spoke at Sundance for [I Saw the] TV Glow. We were talking about the experience of going from first narrative feature to second, and now I want to keep on going. When I asked you about that, you said something to the effect of, it was less about waiting for the green light and more about finding what you need to say as an artist, but then you also added, “figuring out how to be a spy with the gatekeepers who hold the power to get cool shit made.” Because you’re making even more cool shit now, can you tell me a little bit about the things that you have learned while spying on the gatekeepers to ensure that we could keep getting stories like this?
JANE SCHOENBRUN: Tricking people into letting me make my movies. You know, I wish I could say it gets easier, but this is a hard movie to convince people to make. I feel like it was really down to the wire a bit. I was like, “I wrote this script. I know this is the next one I want to make. I actually don’t know if I’m going to get to,” or “I’m going to get to, but it’s going to be like out in the woods with $100 again.” But thankfully, MUBI came along and really understood it and supported the film, and have been really great partners.
But I don’t know, maybe my new thinking about it is, like, it’s not up to me so much. The bind is that I know if I’m not being truthful, I know if I’m not following my own artistic progression towards the goal of being, not more commercial or more digestible or watered down as I grow as an artist, but more of myself, like, that’s the only goal. I’d rather not make something than diverge from that path.
With this movie, yeah, I was surprised that it was so hard because I do think it’s one of the more commercial things I’ve made. It’s fun. It’s funny, it’s sexy. It’s a good time at the movies, but it’s not getting easier. It’s getting harder for queer people to make honest stories about our lives, and especially if those stories aren’t, like, trauma porn. If they’re coming from a liberated perspective, which is not the perspective that Hollywood usually makes movies from — queer liberation — yeah, there are a lot of obstacles in your road to getting $10 million to do some crazy shit.
Jane Schoenbrun Says Collaboration Elevated Every Frame of ‘Camp Miasma’
“It’s just a constant pursuit of looking for joy and play.”
I know that this story was somewhat inspired by your personal experience. You worked on this script. I imagine it feels like your baby to a degree, but I love the fact that when you write something and then you share it with your cast and crew, it could become even more powerful in ways that you weren’t expecting. Can you tell me a few things that some of your cast and crew did with your writing that had that material far exceed your expectations in the finished film?
SCHOENBRUN: Oh, there’s just so, so, so, so much, and that’s what I’m looking for. When I write, I honestly just think of it as giving me and my collaborators lots of little potential gifts to trade in and get on various days on set, or in the sound design or in the edit. It’s like, if you’re not present and having fun, if you’re just kind of making something to spec, you’re going to feel that in the energy of the movie. And so it’s just a constant pursuit of looking for joy and play, and a lot of rigorous planning, obviously, as well.
A huge one was that opening credits scene with all of the memorabilia. I basically hosted a pop-up writers’ room with all of my closest collaborators. We just locked the door and didn’t let anyone knock for a morning, and we beated out that scene. We were brainstorming, like, fake taglines for each sequel and just coming up with the details that make that so fun to watch. That takes a village. There are just so many people who got to have their own joyful, creative process within this larger one.
Like my production designer, Brandon [Tonner-Connolly], and I. I think he learned on TV Glow that I love it when he surprises me with something really cute. A few of my faves that he brought, that were complete surprises, literally, until I arrived on set the day we shot, were the candy chandelier that you see at the end of the movie. Like, that’s his sense of humor, not mine. I was just like, “We’ve got to film that.” So much of those things.
Even my longtime assistant director, Willy [McGee], came over to me and was like, “I think I see something cool. What if you stood in front of the camera like this, in front of this glass, matte-painted backdrop, and then it creates this weird illusion?” And I was like, “Let’s do it,” because it was cool. I’ve learned to surround myself with people who can elevate the work, and who understand my voice enough to add their own to it.
Jane Schoenbrun Breaks Down Little Death’s Unique Design
They call it “unexplainable in a good way.”
You’re working with the best team here because all that stuff is exceptional in the film, and so is the design of Little Death. I love asking about how those types of things evolve from the beginning to the end of the process, so what would you say is the biggest difference between how you initially pictured that character looking when you first started writing and the finished design that we all see in the film?
SCHOENBRUN: I mean, it’s pretty close, to be honest with you. I guess one thing that came in through collaboration with Kendra [Terpenning], our costume designer, was the helmet. Once I knew that it was like that vent that we all see on the ceiling all the time, but don’t really think about, I could just see it perfectly, you know? It was just like, “Just take that vent and put it on top of somebody.” So when I saw it, I was like, “Yes. That is the thing that I saw in my brain.”
The outfit, the plastic wrap, that was not the original idea. We went back and forth a lot on, like, what would this guy wear? There are so many things that you’ve seen, and so many, like, not even slasher movies from the ‘80s, but the movies that we make now with slasher villains, kind of stock slasher villains. Like, I feel like Widow’s Bay had one, which I like that show, but everyone just kind of wears logger uniform. There were so many things that we thought of that were the obvious one, and then something about the plastic wrap just felt unexplainable in a good way.
Jane Schoenbrun Reveals They Were “Bummed” This ‘Camp Miasma’ Scene Got Cut
Plus, find out how that oner came together after “200 hours” of collaboration.
I’ll wrap with this question, because I’m a cliché film nerd and I absolutely love a good oner, and you have an epic one in your movie. Going into filming that, which particular part of it did you and the team think would be the most challenging to pull off, and ultimately, was it, or did something else catch you by surprise?
SCHOENBRUN: There were so many challenging parts of filming that. We spent probably, like, a combined 200 hours in inter-departmental prep meetings so costumes could talk to special effects, could talk to stunts, could talk to VFX, could talk to production design. It was just so much planning to pull that off. The second half of it, when Jack [Haven]’s got the Snorricam strapped to them — that’s like a 60-pound rig, and they are dancing with it — was probably the most challenging thing to pull off. It was one of these moments where it’s like fourth quarter, clock’s ticking down, we have clearly only one more in the tank, and it’s just perfect. That’s the best feeling in the world. We are jumping up and down and cheering when we get it, and it’s perfect. And a lot of that is Jack. Jack is the cinematographer, or at least the camera op for that scene, quite literally.
Another part that was unexpectedly hard: rolling a fake severed head. The one gag that we weren’t able to pull off that I’m really bummed about was we had the severed head on a stick, and we’re rolling it. The idea was the character’s got a mohawk, and that it would roll, and then it would kind of, like, Teflon — it would reach the mohawk, and then it would kind of go boing, boing, boing, and roll back, like it can’t quite forward the mohawk. But whoever was holding that stick and rolling it couldn’t quite get it. It’s like puppetry. I didn’t quite realize there would be literally puppetry. But so much shit like that. Also, we shot in May and June for a lot of that stuff, and you had six hours of true night at that time of year in Vancouver, and so it was really, from sundown at 10:00 p.m. to sun-up at 4:30 in the morning, it’s like all you can eat, go quick.

Jason Statham Officially Returns in 2 Weeks With Blockbuster New Release
Jason Statham didn’t take long establishing himself in 2026, as his first movie of the year hit the big screen only a few weeks into the year. Shelter won over critics and fans with some of the highest review scores of any Statham-led actioner in his career, but that didn’t translate to box office success, largely due to the film’s $50 million budget. After grossing only $54 million at the box office, Shelter has gone on to become one of the biggest streaming hits of the year on both Starz and HBO Max. Statham fans have a lot to be excited about in 2027, when he returns to his role as Adam Clay in The Beekeeper 2. The film was originally supposed to be released in 2026 before being delayed to the third week of 2027.
Jason Statham will have a chance to redeem the box office failure of Shelter, though, when his next movie hits theaters later this month. Statham will star alongside Annabelle Wallis (Peaky Blinders) in Mutiny, the new action thriller opening in theaters worldwide on August 21. Statham plays Cole Reed in the film, an unassuming man who finds himself on the run and in the middle of an international conspiracy after his boss is murdered in front of him, leaving him as the prime suspect. J.P. Davis and Lindsay Michel wrote the script for Mutiny, and Jean-François Richet directed the film — Richet recently guided Gerard Butler to one of his best performances in the 2023 action thriller, Plane. Additional Mutiny stars include Adrian Lester, Ramon Tikaram, and Lee Charles.
Does Jason Statham Have Any Movies on Netflix?
Jason Statham’s only movie on Netflix right now is Furious 7, the Fast & Furious film where he plays the villain opposite Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson. Statham is expected to reprise his role as Deckard Shaw one final time in Fast Forever, which is opening in theaters next year. Over on Prime Video, Jason Statham has several movies available to stream right now. Two of his most recent films, A Working Man and The Beekeeper, are both streaming on Prime Video at the time of writing. Other older Statham-led actioners like Blitz, War, Safe, and Homefront are also streaming on Prime Video right now. Peacock subscribers can also check out Statham in Killer Elite and Hobbs & Shaw.
Stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of Mutiny, which opens in theaters on August 21.

Apple TV’s 4-Part Masterpiece Officially Returns to Critical Acclaim
When everyone’s favorite heartwarming sports series, Ted Lasso, finished its third season in 2023, it felt like the narrative had come to a neat end. Ted’s (Jason Sudeikis) time as coach at AFC Richmond came to an end as he made the tough decision to return to Kansas to spend more time with his son, and fans made peace with this bittersweet finale. However, Apple TV realized that, as the show continued to maintain its place in the streaming charts, there was more success to be found from their flagship show.
This past Wednesday, the fourth season debuted after three years away, acting as a soft reboot for the show. Back in Kansas, Ted has settled into life as a part-time grocery store employee and full-time loving, Fortnite-playing father. But the past is about to literally catch up to him, as Keeley Jones (Juno Temple), Leslie Higgins (Jeremy Swift), and Emmy winner Hannah Waddingham‘s Rebecca Welton touch down in America in the hope of enticing Ted back to Richmond to coach the new women’s team.
Simply seeing these friendly faces back on our screens is enough to please most, with the promised additions of the likes of Tanya Reynolds (Sex Education), Faye Marsay (Andor), and Abbie Hern (My Lady Jane) an undeniable bonus. Audiences have been posting their positive responses to social media, but how have critics reacted to the fourth season? At the time of writing, Ted Lasso Season 4 boasts a strong 89% score on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, marking an 8% increase on Season 3 but falling just short of the opening season’s 92%.
What Have Critics Said About ‘Ted Lasso’ Season 4?
Ted is back coaching Apple TV’s best series to success, with Collider’s Tania Hussain praising the show for being able to “move forward without losing what made it special” in her review. ScreenRant’s Kara Hedash agreed, saying, “Season 4 might be focused on a new team, but it carries the same Ted Lasso charm viewers have grown to love.” For CBR, Katie Doll awarded a 9/10 score, saying, “As a whole, Ted Lasso is back to being the wholesome, feel-good comedy it started as, only this time with a women-led storyline that should resonate with many viewers.”
Ted Lasso Season 4 airs weekly on Apple TV. Make sure to stay tuned to Collider for more streaming stories.

Hilary Duff Brings Daughters on Stage at MSG for Pizza Party
Hilary Duff had three very special guests on stage with her during her second Lucky Me Tour stop at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
On Thursday, August 6, Duff, 38, brought out her daughters, Banks, 7, Mae, 5, and Townes, 2, for an NYC-style pizza party.
Duff’s daughters — whom she shares with husband Matthew Koma — brought out a pie from Joe’s Pizza during the star’s concert, joining their mom for a slice. As the girls bounded onto the stage, little Townes was seen leaping into her mother’s arms.
The Lizzie McGuire alum introduced all three of the girls to her sold-out audience at MSG, affectionately calling Mae “Mae-Mae” and Townes “Townsey Bear.” (Duff also has a son, Luca, 14, with ex-husband Mike Comrie.)
Just a day before Thursday’s concert, Duff revealed that she had been in the emergency room with Mae before her first show at the Garden on Wednesday, August 5.
“My kids are here tonight,” Duff said during Wednesday’s show, per a clip shared by People. “I can’t believe I get to show them this. We were in the ER this morning getting some stitches for my 5-year-old.”
Duff said that Mae was doing “fine” after her trip to the hospital and assured fans that “it’s all good.”
“But it’s very ‘our family-coded’ that I would be playing my first show at MSG and also be in the emergency room getting my kid stitched up,” she quipped, before telling her daughter, “Mae Mae, you’re very brave.”
The night before she brought out her daughters, Duff surprised fans on Wednesday by bringing out her ex Joel Madden’s band, Good Charlotte, for a rendition of their hit song “The Anthem.”
Duff and Madden, 47, dated from 2004 to 2006 and remain on friendly terms. Duff is also close friends with Madden’s wife, Nicole Richie.
“I have a good relationship with their whole family. We actually hang out all the time,” she said during a 2023 interview on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen. “I was just in [Nicole’s] driveway, honking for her to come drink wine with us the other day. … Now, we get them to hike together all the time. And you know what? It’s lovely.”
Madden, for his part, told People in 2007, “Every girl I’ve ever dated I have respect for, and I always try to leave them [on] good terms. I don’t see the necessity to be friends with anyone you’ve dated, but definitely out of respect of the time, you have to be kind of respectful, and that’s what I try to do.”

The singer also showed off her golden-tipped manicure and a large ring on her finger while adding the text “Mrs. Haynes” with a black heart emoji over the image. Although Ashanti didn’t explain what inspired the post, the caption led fans to believe she was proudly showing off her married life and letting it be known that she’s happily taken.
The Internet Is Still Trying To Decode This
Fans wasted no time flooding TSR’s Instagram comment section, with many questioning why Ashanti shared the post and wondering if there was a hidden message behind it. In contrast, others were simply amazed that our girl’s face card is still undefeated.
One Instagram user @divalicious_ng said, “Who Nelly Cheating with?😂😂cuz why?”

Finally, Instagram user @onlyinhim said, “Let us know Mrs. Haynes 💍🎉♥️. I love it 🥰 . Keep being awesome and gorgeous 💕💍♾️”
Ashanti & Nelly said Couple Goals Only
The last time Ashanti and Nelly had the internet talking, the couple stepped out for a major celebration surrounded by some of music’s biggest names. The pair made headlines when they attended Taylor Swift’s wedding, serving coordinated looks and showing love for the newlyweds.
Nelly pulled up looking smooth in a cream tuxedo paired with a white T-shirt and chain, while Ashanti gave full goddess energy in a stunning cream beaded gown with a matching choker. After the celebration, the two shared love for the couple, with Nelly calling the event “incredible” and Ashanti saying there was “so much love in the building.”

Isabel Roloff Claps Back at Audrey’s Farm Saving Comments
Little People, Big World alum Isabel Roloff is addressing her sister-in-law Audrey Roloff’s social media post about salvaging the family farm.
Isabel, 30, took to TikTok on Wednesday, August 5, to answer a fan’s question on the matter after seeing Audrey’s recent post. “How do you feel about your sister-in-law saying they’re still trying to ‘save’ Roloff Farms?” the social media user asked.
Isabel candidly replied in her caption, “Honestly? It feels incredibly disappointing.”
She continued, “They have never talked to us about it. We don’t have the money to ‘save’ it but we are here, every day, showing up, working it. We tend to the plants and animals and the land of this place.”
Isabel, who tied the knot with Jacob Roloff in 2019, explained that her family has tried to “figure out a way to authentically save it” for four years now. “At the end of the day? You just need money,” she added.
“I just get a bad taste in my mouth that they talk about it like they would be the ones to come in and save the day when we’re here, wishing we could find a way to make it work. They never asked if we wanted to work together,” she vented.

Isabel spoke out hours after Audrey, 35, who married Jeremy Roloff in 2014, shared life updates via Instagram. “We went blackberry picking at Roloff Farms,” Audrey captioned a pic of herself holding her daughter Mirabella, 2. “A couple months ago we had the opportunity to revisit purchasing the farm but we ultimately decided not to.”
Audrey continued, “However, every time we go there, we can’t help but wonder if there is a way to still buy it through some creative means. Not necessarily live on it, but to use it for business, ministry, and/or a place for goodness and beauty to multiply. I still just have this hunch that a God might make a way.”
In June, family patriarch Matt Roloff relisted 16 acres of the 109-acre property for $2.6 million. He originally listed the land, in Helvetia, Oregon, for $4 million in 2022. That same year, Matt, 64, offered the house as a short-term vacation rental. He then took it off the market and relisted it in August 2025 for $2.8 million.
Jeremy lived on the farm with his twin Zach, brother Jacob, 29, and sister Molly, 32, as well as his dad and mom Amy Roloff. When Amy, 63, and Matt separated in 2015, she sold her half of the property to Matt.
Jeremy and Audrey previously opened up about potentially purchasing the farm in March.
“Things my February content didn’t tell you about my February,” she wrote in an Instagram recap. “Jer’s dad told the kids he was going to list Roloff Farms for sale again. It has been on and off the market over the last six years since we tried to buy it in 2020.”

The eyes of the world are currently on the theater. Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which debuted last weekend, has followed in the footsteps of another Tom Holland movie, Christopher Nolan‘s epic adaptation of Homer‘s The Odyssey, in smashing box office records. Brand New Day has earned the biggest opening weekend in domestic cinema history, edging past the $357 million earned by Avengers: Endgame to take top spot.

1
‘My Life With the Walter Boys’ (2023–Present)
Rotten Tomatoes: 56% | IMDb: 6.8/10
Of the many shows returning to streaming this weekend, the most enticing on Netflix is the perfect YA replacement for the recent Paramount+ smash Dutton Ranch. My Life With the Walter Boys, often likened to Prime Video’s The Summer I Turned Pretty, follows Jackie (Nikki Rodriguez) as she finds herself stuck in a tricky love triangle with brothers Cole (Noah LaLonde) and Alex Walter (Ashby Gentry).
The first season of My Life With the Walter Boys was one of Netflix’s best sleeper hits of 2023, with Season 2 propelled to new heights thanks to better exposure. With the series going from strength to strength, this third season is set to be the most unmissable yet, as more indulgent drama unfolds in rural Colorado. The series has already been renewed for a fourth installment.
2
‘Alley Cats’ (2026)
Fans of adult animation are in for a treat this weekend, as British comedic favorite Ricky Gervais finally returns with his latest Netflix project. Alley Cats, produced by Blink Industries, follows an irreverent group of feral cats as they deal with the trials and tribulations of their difficult lives, causing mayhem and fighting back in a human world.
Gervais has never been one to hide from his own musings on modern society, and this isn’t expected to be any different. The likes of Diane Morgan, Tom Basden, Andrew Brooke, and Kerry Godliman all lend their voices alongside Gervais in the series, which is already expected to be one of the late-summer gems in the Netflix library. For some thought-provoking humor this weekend, don’t miss Alley Cats.
3
‘You’ (2018–2025)
Rotten Tomatoes: 89% | IMDb: 7.6/10
If you’re looking for an already established Netflix smash hit this weekend, then look no further than one of the biggest shows of 2025: You. Based on Caroline Kepnes’ novel series, the series follows charismatic serial killer Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) as he inserts himself seamlessly into the lives of women who capture his intense attention.
Utterly gripping and easily binge-watched, this thrilling dark romance has long been heralded as a favorite of many Netflix subscribers, and now that it has come to an end after seven years, it’s ready and waiting to be discovered in its entirety by those few yet to fall under its spell. It might not be perfect, but You is so addictive that you’ll find yourself forgiving glaring plot holes in the name of must-watch drama.
