Jania Meshell Is Gearing Up For Her Baby Boy

Recently, Jania Meshell gave fans another peek at her growing baby bump on her Instagram Story and asked them to help her with baby name suggestions. Meshell specifically wanted boy names as she and Dejounte Murray are preparing to welcome their second child together. The couple already shares a daughter named Icelynn and Jania also has a son, Kacey Gaulden with NBA YoungBoy. Once Jania put the question on social media, fans wasted NO time sliding through with name suggestions for her little one.

Fans Had NBA YoungBoy On The Brain When Jania Asked For Baby Names

Once The Shade Room Teens shared Jania’s photo, the comment section filled up with even MORE baby name suggestions. Plenty of folks came through with creative ideas that combined Jania and Dejounte’s names, while other TeaMates couldn’t resist cracking jokes. Some even told her she should consider using NBA YoungBoy’s real name, Kentrell, for her unborn baby.

Instagram user @biploargeminiiiprt2 wrote, “NBA YoungBoy.” 

Instagram user @cyrrr4 wrote, “Kentrell Gaulden.” 

Then Instagram user @knock_out55 wrote, “Give him a junior it’s his first boy.”

Simon Cowell’s temporary replacement on “America’s Got Talent” is a familiar face who has already stepped in for the music mogul during a previous health crisis. “Saturday Night Live” star Kenan Thompson will serve as a guest judge for the September 1 Quarterfinals 3 episode while Cowell recovers from another back procedure.

The comedian previously occupied Cowell’s seat in 2020 after the longtime judge suffered a devastating electric-bike accident that left him with a broken back. The latest surgery has forced Cowell to step away from the NBC competition series for several weeks, but his representative has emphasized that the procedure is routine and not connected to a new major health scare.

According to TMZ, Thompson will join Howie Mandel, Sofía Vergara, and Mel B at the judges’ table for Tuesday night’s live episode. Deadline also confirmed Thompson’s upcoming appearance, which marks his return to the talent competition after six years.

Cowell’s chair remained empty during the August 25 episode, with host Terry Crews explaining that the British television personality needed an operation that could not be postponed.

Thompson’s arrival restores the show’s four-person panel as the Season 21 competition moves deeper into the live quarterfinals. However, it remains unclear whether the “Good Burger” actor will appear for more than one episode or if other celebrity guests will rotate into the seat while Cowell recovers.

The ‘SNL’ Star Previously Replaced Cowell In 2020

6

This is not the first time Thompson has been called upon to help “America’s Got Talent” navigate Cowell’s absence. In August 2020, Thompson appeared as a guest judge after Cowell fell from an electric bike at his Malibu home and broke his back. Kelly Clarkson also filled in during Cowell’s recovery, while some later episodes continued with only three judges.

Cowell later admitted that he understood the severity of the accident almost as soon as he hit the ground.

“I knew I’d broken my back the minute I landed. It was really, really kind of sudden and it hurt,” the former “American Idol” judge told Extra in February 2021. “It could have been a lot worse. When I saw the X-ray, I really nearly could have smashed my spine to pieces, so I literally wouldn’t have been able to walk.”

He addressed the accident on Instagram the following day. “Some good advice … If you buy an electric trail bike, read the manual before you ride it for the first time. I have broken part of my back,” he shared. “Thank you to everyone for your kind messages.”

Simon Cowell Reveals His Son’s ‘Sweetest’ Reaction To His Devastating Injury

Cowell later revealed that one of his biggest concerns was how he would explain his condition to his son, Eric.

“I said, ‘Lauren, I just don’t know how to explain it to Eric.’ She obviously said something to him because he came in … and I was lying in bed,” he explained. “He said, ‘Daddy, you’re like Iron Man,’ and I thought that was the sweetest thing and it meant a lot.”

The ‘AGT’ Judge Experienced Long-Term Nerve Damage

6

In April 2022, Cowell acknowledged that he had initially downplayed how serious the accident and its aftermath were.

“It was a lot worse than people thought. I had a lot of long-term nerve damage as well,” he told OK! magazine. His recovery proved to be a lengthy process. Cowell experienced considerable pain when he tried playing soccer with Eric, despite believing that his bones had healed.

Another accident followed in February 2022, when Cowell fell from an e-bike in London and broke his arm. Despite being injured in two separate crashes, the television personality has remained committed to riding. “I’m still gonna stay on my bike. I’m obsessed with these things,” he told “Today” in 2023.

Simon Cowell Is Expected To Return In A Few Weeks

6

Cowell’s representative has not disclosed the specific nature of his latest operation or announced an exact date for his return. “Obviously, medical matters are private, but it’s routine, and he will be back in a few weeks,” the representative told “Entertainment Weekly,” according to NBC.

That timeline means the longtime judge could potentially return before the September 22 and September 23 finale, although the show has not confirmed his schedule.

Six Flags Magic Mountain has reportedly shut down a roller coaster that has caused serious injuries and death to riders for years. The X2 has been closed since Sunday, July 12, as two women underwent brain surgery following ride on the roller coaster. Also, the closure comes years after a man died from riding the X2 back in 2022.

Six Flags Roller Coaster Finally Shuts Down

Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California, reportedly shut down the X2 on July 12, after two women required emergency brain surgery after riding the roller coaster, according to KTLA.

Pamela Guillen, 40, and 25-year-old Naomi Greer-Wilkinson rode the roller coaster within six days of each other and were injured, per KLTV. Additionally, both women experienced brain hemorrhages that required emergency brain surgery, and they both ended up in a coma.

Also, on Sunday, July 5, Guillen sustained a life-threatening brain injury after she hit her head on the headrest during the roller coaster ride. She reportedly lost consciousness after getting off the X2 and was rushed to the hospital. Surgeons immediately performed brain surgery. Ultimately, Guillen was unconscious for approximately two weeks. In addition, she also had to learn how to talk and walk again. 

As said, Naomi Greer-Wilkinson suffered a brain hemorrhage from riding the X2. She is still in a coma and requires a ventilator to breathe.

Coaster Linked To Multiple Injuries Over The Years

An exposé by CNN revealed that multiple injuries have been attributed to the roller coaster, and several hospitalizations also occurred. Furthermore, a man also died after riding the roller coaster back in 2022. Six Flags documents recorded at least 70 neck and head injury complaints between 2019 and 2022. Nonetheless, the ride was not permanently closed until this year.

22-Year-Old Man Died After Riding Roller Coaster In 2022

The family of Christopher Hawley sued Six Flags Magic Mountain for wrongful death following his death from riding the coaster.

The 22-year-old was a graduate of San Diego State University, and he rode the X2 on June 23, 2022, with his brother and cousin. The two were sitting behind Hawley when all of the sudden the roller coaster stopped in a violent and abrupt manner. Afterward, Hawley said his head hurt as he held onto the rail, and he had trouble walking. He was rushed to the hospital where a CT scan showed a catastrophic right subdural hematoma. Hawley died the next day. His brother and cousin said the ride also made them hit their heads repeatedly and jolted them “like rag dolls.”

“We want to make sure that ride isn’t going to kill somebody else,” said Hawley’s father. “They won’t explain to us what happened. They’ve essentially gone dark. The only way we’ve been able to contact them is through our attorney.”

A settlement was reportedly reached this year. Years before, in 2010, a 28-year-old woman, Hilda Farias, also reportedly died after riding the roller coaster. She had a preexisting brain abnormality. However, doctors believe it ruptured because of the ride’s intensity. A wrongful death lawsuit was also settled for an undisclosed amount.

In the case of Guillen and Greer-Wilkinson, the surgeons stated that the roller coaster caused the brain injuries.

“In our professional opinion, the severe brain injuries requiring emergent neurosurgical attention were the result of a traumatic rapid acceleration-deceleration event experienced while on the X2 ride,” they noted.

Tim Curry, the legendary British actor whose unforgettable performances in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, IT, Clue and countless other projects made him one of Hollywood’s most recognizable character actors, has died. He was 80.

Curry died Tuesday, August 25, at his home in Los Angeles, according to multiple reports. His death comes after years of health struggles following a major stroke in 2012.

Born Timothy James Curry in England in 1946, Curry began his professional career on the stage, joining the original London production of Hair in 1968. It was theater that would eventually lead him to the role that changed his career forever.

Curry originated the role of Dr. Frank-N-Furter in the 1973 London production of The Rocky Horror Show before bringing the character to the big screen in 1975’s The Rocky Horror Picture Show. While the film was not initially a major success, it eventually became one of cinema’s most enduring cult classics through its legendary midnight screenings and audience participation.

Curry’s fearless performance as Frank-N-Furter became a defining piece of pop culture and remained closely associated with the actor throughout his career.

But Curry’s work extended far beyond Rocky Horror.

Horror fans knew him as the terrifying Pennywise the Dancing Clown in the 1990 television adaptation of Stephen King’s IT. His performance helped turn Pennywise into a horror icon decades before the character returned to theaters.

Curry was equally memorable as Wadsworth in the 1985 cult comedy Clue and as the imposing Lord of Darkness in Ridley Scott’s Legend. His extensive film credits also included Annie, The Hunt for Red October, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, The Three Musketeers, Muppet Treasure Island, Charlie’s Angels and Scary Movie 2.

His career also included decades of stage and voice work. Curry earned three Tony Award nominations, including recognition for his performances in Amadeus, My Favorite Year and Monty Python’s Spamalot. He also became a prolific voice actor, lending his distinctive voice to numerous animated series, films and video games.

In 2012, Curry suffered a major stroke that significantly affected his mobility. Although the health setback limited his live-action work, he continued making appearances and taking on select projects. He later returned to the world of Rocky Horror as the Criminologist in Fox’s 2016 television adaptation.

Curry released his memoir, Vagabond, in 2025 and participated in celebrations surrounding the 50th anniversary of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, giving fans another opportunity to celebrate the performer behind one of cinema’s most enduring characters.

Across more than five decades, Curry built a career unlike almost anyone else’s. Whether audiences remember him as Frank-N-Furter, Pennywise, Wadsworth, Darkness or one of the countless characters brought to life by his unmistakable voice, his performances left an impact that stretched across film, television, theater and generations of fans.

Batman may not be immortal or not have superpowers, but the world around him is filled with some of the most powerful and dangerous characters in the DC Universe who force him to keep a vigilant eye on Gotham City. From villains who can manipulate minds and control nature, such as Poison Ivy and Scarecrow, to deranged and dangerous madmen like the Joker, Batman has faced opponents far beyond the limits of ordinary humans, each with their own fascinating backstory and motive for taking down The Dark Knight.

Gotham City has its fair share of reputable villains and anti-heroes who have demonstrated abilities that make them incredibly difficult to defeat. What makes characters such as Ra’s al Ghul and Bane especially interesting is that their power comes in many different forms — physical strength, advanced technology, supernatural abilities, intelligence, immortality, and sheer determination that make them among the most powerful Batman characters.

Poison Ivy

Pamela Lillian Isley, also known as Poison Ivy, is a doctor of botany turned ecoterrorist and an iconic DC villain who has the incredible ability to control plants and nature using an elemental force known as “Green,” making her one of Gotham’s most powerful adversaries. Unlike other Batman villains, Ivy isn’t after power or wealth, and selflessly fights to protect nature from human interference at any cost, which usually causes her to clash with Batman.

She can manipulate vegetation, create massive plant creatures, control people with pheromones, and rapidly regenerate, which is why she has a reputation for being an unpredictable and deadly force. Her powers are constantly evolving and can even affect entire environments without warning, making her much more than a typical Gotham villain who often gives Batman a run for his money. Combined with her superior intelligence, seductive charm, and unbreakable connection to the natural world, Poison Ivy can be an extremely dangerous and powerful opponent — even for the Caped Crusader.

6

Scarecrow

Image via DC Comics

Dr. Jonathan Crane is a brilliant psychologist at Arkham Asylum and a professor at Gotham University whose lifelong obsession with fear led him to develop an unethical hallucinogenic drug. This allows him to terrorize Gotham City as the self-proclaimed Master of Fear known as Scarecrow. Using his powerful fear toxin, Scarecrow can control the minds of his victims and cause terrifying hallucinations that force them to experience their deepest and darkest fears with no escape in sight.

In some versions, Scarecrow’s fear toxin can affect large groups of people and create widespread chaos, which can sometimes be more destructive than a physical weapon, making him one of the most dangerous Batman characters. Scarecrow’s intelligence, his advanced knowledge of psychology, and his ability to exploit his enemies’ weaknesses make him powerful. He might not be the most intimidating character physically, but his education and easy access to Arkham and its collection of insane patients undeniably make Scarecrow a dangerous villain. Even Batman, who has trained himself to overcome fear, can be pushed to his limits when facing Scarecrow and his uncertain degree of madness.

Mr. Freeze

Mr. Freeze was originally introduced in the comics as a mad scientist known as Mr. Zero, but was renamed Mr. Freeze in 1966. In 1992, the character was reinvented for Batman: The Animated Series as the tragic villain, Victor Fries, who turns to crime to find a cure for his terminally ill wife, Nora, who has been cryogenically frozen by him. Despite his heartbreaking backstory, Freeze is still one of Batman’s most enduring villains, whose advanced cryogenic technology and ability to manipulate the cold rightfully earn him a place on the list.

His freeze gun can instantly immobilize enemies, create massive ice structures, and freeze objects in seconds, while his specialized suit also gives him enhanced strength and protection from freezing temperatures. Beyond his technology, Freeze is an ingenious scientist who uses his intelligence to develop increasingly powerful weapons and equipment that even surpass some of Batman’s own nifty gadgets and defenses. His determination to save his wife, Nora, also drives him to go to extraordinary lengths, making Freeze a formidable and powerful opponent who challenges Batman in more ways than one.

The Joker

The Joker made his grand debut in the first issue of Batman in April 1940 as a run-of-the-mill murderous maniac who was intended to be killed off, but instead he turned into not only one of the most legendary characters in the Batman Universe but also one of the most famous characters in pop culture. Over the years, there have been several origin stories about the Clown Prince of Crime, who has since become one of the best Batman movie villains of all time, but one common denominator about every version of the Joker is that he’s always a criminal (and comical) mastermind who never fails to pull off a wicked surprise.

Despite his disadvantage in physical strength, the Joker is still a reckless agent of chaos whose greatest weapons are his unpredictability, intelligence, and emotional nihilism. The Joker is a skilled manipulator who uses psychological warfare, deadly gadgets, and a twisted sense of humor to execute his elaborate schemes. He has managed to outsmart Batman on numerous occasions and almost always remains two steps ahead of the people pursuing him, proving that he can be a threat even without traditional superpowers. His willingness to do the unexpected, combined with his obsession with breaking Batman mentally and emotionally, makes the Joker one of The Dark Knight’s most powerful and thrilling enemies of all time.

Bane

Bane was born and raised in a brutal prison on the island of Santa Prisca known as Peña Duro, and was forced to serve a life sentence for his father’s political crimes. The young man eventually became a test subject for a super-drug known as Venom, which ended up giving him superhuman strength and superior intelligence, making him one of the most powerful characters in Batman’s world. His use of the Venom drug can dramatically increase his already immense strength, allowing him to overpower opponents with little to no effort. However, Bane’s greatest advantage is that he is more than just a powerhouse.

Bane is a skilled fighter, brilliant strategist, and master manipulator who Ra’s al Ghul once said had a mind as equal as the greatest he’s ever known. Like a predator stalking his prey, Bane studies Batman and his methods and weaknesses, which gives him the opportunity to create carefully planned attacks rather than simply relying on brute force. His combination of strength, intelligence, endurance, and combat skills makes Bane one of the few villains who is easily capable of defeating Batman both physically and mentally.

Bruce Wayne

This list wouldn’t be complete without including the Caped Crusader himself. Bruce Wayne, a.k.a. Batman, might not have superpowers or come from another planet, but his intelligence, sharp combat skills, innovative technology, and unwavering determination undoubtedly make him by far one of the most powerful characters in his universe. Born into the wealthy and prominent Wayne family, Bruce was an only child who, after witnessing the brutal murder of his parents, Martha and Thomas Wayne, dedicates his life to protecting the people of Gotham as both Bruce Wayne and The Dark Knight.

Bruce has trained his body and mind to peak human condition, becoming an expert in martial arts, detective work, strategy, and tactics that he expertly conceals with his playboy billionaire alter ego. His advanced gadgets, armor, vehicles, and specialized equipment allow him to fight enemies far stronger than himself. What makes Bruce especially dangerous is his ability to study his opponents and prepare for their weaknesses at the perfect opportune moment. Even when facing superhuman or supernatural enemies, Batman’s resilience, selflessness, and strategic thinking allow him to hold his own (and sometimes even more) over some of the most notorious supervillains in the DC Universe.

1

Ra’s al Ghul

Image via DC Comics

Ra’s al Ghul is an international criminal mastermind who is equipped with centuries of experience, exceptional intelligence, deadly combat skills, and the power of the Lazarus Pits, dubbing him the most dangerous and powerful character in the Batman universe. As the leader of the League of Assassins, Ra’s commands a vast network of highly trained fighters and has spent generations perfecting his strategies and martial arts abilities, but one of his greatest strengths is the Lazarus Pit, which is a mysterious substance capable of healing serious injuries and restoring his body to its once youthful self, allowing him to survive situations that would be fatal to an ordinary person.

He is also a master swordsman and hand-to-hand fighter who has fought Batman on numerous occasions, proving that age is only a number. However, what truly makes Ra’s dangerous is his intelligence and long-term planning. He often thinks several steps ahead of his enemies and uses elaborate plans to achieve his goals. Based on appearance alone, Ra’s al Ghul might not seem that intimidating to those who don’t know his reputation, but his worldly knowledge, extensive resources, immortality-like longevity, and psychological tact make him a formidable opponent as well as one of the few characters who can challenge Batman on almost every level.

General Hospital suggests that the walls are closing in on Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) as her enemies continue to get evidence on her and the upper hand. And her downfall should be coming quickly.

General Hospital Fans Need Willow Brought to Justice

Fans have been really eager to see Willow finally pay consequences for all her crimes and awful deeds. We’re going to talk about who’s the one to finally take Willow down and make her pay for all the bad things she’s done. And of course, the big question is, will Willow go to Pentonville? Will she go to Shady Brook? Or will she run off?

Last week, we saw Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) getting the upper hand with Willow because he has those affidavits from Kai Taylor (Jens Austin Astrup) and Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) saying that Willow is the one who shot Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) twice in the back and tried to kill him.

Of course, they didn’t see Willow shoot him. But they heard her ringtone after the shooting and there’s phone records to corroborate. So now, Michael has forced Willow to move into the gate house on the Q grounds so he can keep her close and keep an eye on her.

Willow Scheming against Michael on GH

And Willow is now trying to get blackmail on Michael instead of just trying to find a more amicable way forward. But that’s what she does. Willow lashes out and escalates every time. And then this week we had Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) confronting Willow. Alexis told Willow that she knows she tried to kill Drew.

And Alexis agreed to stay quiet for now. But she said if Willow comes after Kai and Trina, then Alexis will destroy Willow and make sure she loses her kids and her seat in Congress. So, the threats are starting to pile up against Willow and she’s panicking and it does seem like her downfall is fast approaching.

General Hospital: Who Defeats Willow?

But of all the people with grudges against her and evidence against her, the question is which one in the end is going to take down Willow? So, I think the person who most wants to see Willow go down is Drew Cain. He’s going after Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) to try and get the evidence that he has against Drew because as long as Jack has that blackmail leverage, Drew can’t go after Willow and Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros).

Drew Comes after Willow on GH?

But that may change soon because this week, Drew convinced Ava Jerome (Maura West) to keep Brennan busy while he searches his hotel room for the incriminating evidence that could send Drew to prison. So, it looks like Ava might wind up drugging Jack to make that happen. We know that if Drew gets that evidence away from Jack, then Willow is in serious trouble.

Obviously, Drew wants payback on Willow, not only for trying to kill him. But for keeping him a prisoner in his own body for so many months. Drew suffered in silence while locked in. And he also had Sidwell threatening him. Plus, he missed out on all of that time with his daughter, Scout Cain (Kayden Brenna Tokarski).

So, if Drew is able to get this evidence away from Brennan, I think he’ll absolutely destroy Willow. I suspect that he would want to see her in Pentonville and that Drew might press criminal charges on Willow. But Drew is not exactly a sympathetic victim, and still he could probably get Willow sent to prison because of what she did.

Alexis Fed Up with Willow on General Hospital

Another person who’s poised to take her down is Alexis Davis. She just told Willow she wouldn’t turn her in for shooting Drew. Not yet. But if Willow does anything about Trina and Kai or goes after them, Alexis said she go straight to the PCPD and give them the evidence against Willow.

However, doing that might get Alexis’s law license revoked again, which Willow was quick to taunt her about. But I think Alexis is willing to risk it. Willow could face perjury charges. That’s small beans, though. But she could also face false imprisonment and assault charges for drugging Drew and keeping him locked in.

Alexis is threatening to take aim at her children and her seat in Congress. But unfortunately she gave Willow a heads up and with that she might do something crazy to Alexis that gets her in trouble with the law. Another person who might destroy Willow is Michael.

If he finds out Willow is pressuring Jack to get leverage against him, Michael may lose patience and he may just turn around and take those affidavits to the PCPD to get Willow exposed for shooting Drew.

Michael right now is being pretty reasonable given that he knows Willow tried to kill her husband. You would think that she’d be grateful that Michael didn’t already take that evidence to the PCPD. But Willow’s not. Instead, she wants to take Michael down.

So, you know, he may have enough of Willow and decide she’s too unhinged to be around their kids. I think Michael may wind up having her sent away to protect their children.

General Hospital: Tracy Despises Willow

There’s also Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot). She would love to take Willow down. Because Tracy hates her and the tensions at an all-time high now that Willow’s living on the estate again because of Michael. Bottom line, Willow’s hanging around Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) and Tracy is very protective of Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton)’s marriage.

So, I could see Tracy triggered by Willow’s close proximity to Chase if she won’t stay away. And if Tracy finds out what kind of evidence to use against Willow, I think Tracy would not hesitate to use it. I don’t think she’d blackmail Willow. I think Tracy would just turn her into the cops in a heartbeat.

Brennan Does the Honors on GH

One last person to consider is Brennan. Because he’s going to lose it when he finds out that Willow recorded him admitting that he used WSB resources to get rid of that footage of her. And if you remember, she was on Drew Street the night she tried to kill her hubby. That’s the surveillance footage that he used his WSB resources to get rid of.

And I expect Brennan is going to go after Willow hard. We also know Brennan is dying this fall. So, it might even be Willow that ends up killing him, whether it’s intentional or accidental. Nina might be involved with that, too. Bottom line is too many people know Willow is a bad seed and she’s lashing out and taking risks that are increasingly larger. Alexis wasn’t off the mark when she called Willow a monster.

But I also think there’s something deeply wrong with Willow, like psychologically. Because she grew up without her dad most of her life. She was raised in a cult. Her mom, Harmony Miller (Inga Cadranel), handed her to Shiloh Archer (Coby Ryan McLaughlin) to rape from the time she was a teenager.

General Hospital: Willow Breaks Down?

So, I suspect when the ugly truth comes out that Willow will lose her grip on reality, between Shiloh controlling her, Harmony betraying her, and Drew gaslighting her, I think Willow is finally going to snap and have a complete and total nervous breakdown like something we’ve never seen with her before.

So, for all those reasons, because of her messed up history, I kind of don’t think she’ll do time in Pentonville. Although a lot of fans would like to see her behind bars, I tend to think whoever outs her, Drew or Tracy, you know, or maybe Willow gets herself caught red-handed doing another bad thing. I do suspect she may wind up in Shady Brook instead of prison.

And I mention this because we had a recent leak from our inside source who says Katelyn McMullen wants to take a break, a nice long one like Steve Burton and Finola Hughes did. So, General Hospital might send Willow away temporarily so that they can accommodate Katelyn McMullen’s request.

In the end though, I suspect Willow Tate will pay some consequences. But I don’t think it’s going to be life in prison like so many fans think that she deserves. There’s also some talk about Katelyn McMullen’s contract renewal and whether Willow’s absence is factored into that.

Because she’s up for renewal in October. So, they’re probably already negotiating. And I’ve also heard that if Katelyn doesn’t renew, Frank Valentini is open to recasting the role. So, Willow is here to stay either way.

Dolly Parton’s tireless work ethic apparently left little time for sleep, according to one of the country legend’s former co-stars. Danica McKellar revealed that Parton told her she typically slept only three to five hours each night before waking up, doing her own hair and makeup, and getting straight to work.

The surprising glimpse into Parton’s private routine emerged days after her death at age 80 and helps explain how she managed to balance a seven-decade entertainment career, business empire, and extensive philanthropic work.

Speaking with Fox News Digital, McKellar recalled what Parton told her about the demanding schedule she maintained behind the scenes. “She told me she only slept three to five hours a night. She was always dreaming stuff up and just busy. She’d sleep on her big travel bus, if she was traveling and doing things, and wake up early in the morning… She did her own hair and makeup, her own wig and her own makeup. And she’d get to work,” McKellar said.

Parton’s routine reflected the energy she brought to nearly every aspect of her career. Even while traveling, she was reportedly able to rest aboard her tour bus before preparing herself for the next day.

Despite becoming one of the most recognizable figures in country music, Parton reportedly continued handling her own elaborate look rather than relying entirely on a glam team. Her famous wigs, makeup, and rhinestone-covered wardrobe became inseparable from her public identity, but McKellar’s story suggests Parton remained personally involved in creating that image.

Danica McKellar Says The Singer Had An Incredible Work Ethic

McKellar’s connection to Parton began through the country star’s Imagination Library. The literacy program selected McKellar’s children’s book, “Goodnight, Numbers,” for inclusion in its collection. McKellar later narrated the documentary “The Library That Dolly Built.”

Their professional relationship continued when McKellar pitched the idea for the 2019 Hallmark movie “Christmas at Dollywood,” in which she starred alongside Parton. That experience allowed the former “Wonder Years” actress to observe Parton’s approach to work firsthand.

McKellar described the “9 to 5” singer as “everything that you hope she could possibly be and much more.”

“She’s incredible, great work ethic. She wanted to rehearse a lot and I was like, ‘I would love to rehearse with you.’ I’d love to just be in her presence. She was incredible. She walked on the set and made everyone feel comfortable because people were so nervous to meet Dolly Parton,” she recalled.

Parton’s commitment to rehearsing also showed that she did not rely solely on her decades of experience. According to McKellar, the veteran performer continued preparing carefully for her work.

Dolly Parton Instantly Charmed The Entire Set

Parton’s arrival on the “Christmas at Dollywood” set understandably made some of the cast and crew nervous. However, McKellar said the music icon immediately relaxed the room with a simple holiday greeting. “And she just walked on this set and said, ‘Merry Christmas, everybody.’ Like to the whole room and everyone just was charmed, like that was it,” she said.

Although she was an internationally famous singer, songwriter, actress, and entrepreneur, McKellar said Parton knew how to make the people around her feel comfortable. The actress believes that ability should remain an important part of Parton’s legacy.

“Because she knew how to make everybody feel good about themselves,” McKellar said. “That’s what she taught me the most. And what I think is her message for the world, treat each other kindly. You have a choice. You have so much power, more power than you realize.”

The Country Legend Reportedly Worked Until Her Final Day

Parton died on August 25, 2026, following what her team described as a brief battle with cancer. She died at Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center in Nashville while surrounded by loved ones. The singer’s longtime manager reportedly said she worked “up until the day she died,” suggesting that her drive did not fade even as she faced serious health problems.

Parton had also taken steps to map out how her legacy would continue following her death. Her extraordinary productivity stretched far beyond her music. In addition to recording enduring hits such as “Jolene,” “9 to 5” and “I Will Always Love You,” Parton built Dollywood, appeared in movies and devoted substantial time to children’s literacy through the Imagination Library.

Stella Parton Says Her Sister Was ‘Always Thinking Of Others’

Parton’s younger sister, Stella Parton, also offered an intimate look at the woman behind the public image in an emotional Instagram tribute. “My sister was one of the most generous, thoughtful and kind people I’ve ever known,” Stella wrote. “What the world saw is exactly who she was.”

Stella claimed that her sister was willing to help others even if doctors could no longer save her. “She told me recently that if there was no hope for her, she would still allow her medical team to try experimental drugs in the hope of helping others in the future,” she wrote.

According to Stella, that willingness reflected a pattern that continued throughout Parton’s life. “My sister was always thinking of others,” she wrote. “And if you want to honor her legacy, show more kindness, lift others up, and give more of your time and resources, as she continued to do to the very end.”

The Bold and the Beautiful has Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) determined that he and Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) must keep their steamy night together a secret, but we know it’s not going to stay hidden forever.

And eventually the truth is going to come out and Steffy and Carter’s spouses are going to be absolutely crushed. We’re going to discuss the possible fallout from Steffy and Carter’s secret being exposed because it is supposed to come to a head by the end of this week. But whether that means fully exposed or not remains to be seen.

Bold and the Beautiful: Carter & Steffy’s Secret Safe…for Now

And now let’s talk about the consequences coming for them. So, we saw that Carter convinced Steffy to not tell Finn Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) even though Steffy said she couldn’t hide this from her husband. But Carter made it clear he would lose Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire) forever. Whereas Steffy’s hubby may not dump her over their one night drunken whoopsie.

But I suspect that Steffy may crack and she may tell Finn anyway despite telling Carter she would keep it zipped. So, by the end of this week, we have Finn apologizing to Steffy, just going on and on about how sorry he is he didn’t tell her that Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) was in Monaco, and we’ve got Finn just sucking up. And all these apologies are making Steffy feel guilty.

Finn Grovels to Steffy on B&B

So, this week, Finn tells Steffy he was going to tell her at lunch that day in Monaco that Sheila got on the plane. But then they saw her on the beach before he could. Obviously, timing matters. So, Steffy might feel like she can’t sit on the Carter secret because she laid into Finn for keeping a secret.

And once it comes out, things are going to spiral. Let’s talk about what’s next. So first, I think Steffy might tell Finn despite her agreeing to keep quiet despite what she told Carter. Finn will likely forgive Steffy. Maybe. I think he likely will, but he may blame Carter. So, Finn might march right over to Forrester Creations and just punch Carter right in the face.

I’m assuming that Finn may not blame Steffy because he lets her get away with everything. Finn might even blame himself, which would be awful. If Steffy tells him she was so hurt by the Sheila secret that she got drunk, Finn may decide that Carter took advantage and he may go just punch him.

Bold and Beautiful: Finn Hits Carter Where it Hurts

So, second, if Finn finds out, yeah, he might hit Carter. Or Finn may go directly to Daphne and tell her that their spouses slept together. Even if Steffy begs him not to tell Daphne or to confront Carter, even if Finn doesn’t tell Daphne, if Finn confronts Carter, then Daphne may find out that way.

She could walk into one of the offices at Forrester and overhear Finn ranting at Carter for sleeping with Steffy. And as we know on B&B, everyone overhears everything at Forrester Creations. And if Daphne walks in on it or she overhears it, obviously she would be crushed and furious.

Another possibility is Finn may surprise all of us and he may go off on Steffy if she admits she slept with Carter. There’s a chance Finn could actually walk out on Steffy. I mean, honestly, Finn blowing up is what he should do after all the times that Steffy has made demands on him and he caved.

Finn Leaves Steffy on B&B?

Finn does everything Steffy wants. He’s extremely good to her. He always puts her and the kids first. And then Steffy was so harsh to him over Sheila following him to Monaco, even though Finn did everything he could to get Sheila to turn around and go back to LA.

After how good Finn has been to her, you know, Steffy cheated on him and he’s never been unfaithful to her. So, it would actually be kind of amazing if Finn packed a bag and left Steffy because this is not the first time she cheated. Steffy slept with Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) when they were together and now she cheated with Carter. So honestly, Finn should walk out.

Bold and the Beautiful: Finn Stays Quiet for Steffy

We may also see an outcome where Steffy comes clean to Finn, but convinces him to keep quiet and not confront Carter and not tell Daphne. And honestly, Finn may do that, but then if Steffy turns up pregnant, then it could all explode a few weeks down the road, even if she keeps a lid on it for now.

Or it may blow up a little bit but not fully. You know, Finn might get angry at Steffy. Maybe even threaten to leave her. But then somehow Finn’s able to move past it and forgive Steffy and things seem fine and then all of a sudden, boom, pregnancy bombshell.

That would make everything explode ten times worse than just a cheating scandal. And if that happens and Steffy turns up pregnant, she’s going to need her third paternity test. One for every pregnancy to find out if her baby daddy is Finn or Carter on Bold and the Beautiful.

Finn & Steffy’s Future at Risk on B&B

So, this week, Finn tells Steffy that nothing in the future will come between them, but if in the future she turns up pregnant, I think that would come between her and Finn. One final option is that it could all blow up. Every possible negative consequence could come exploding out. We could see Finn walk out on Steffy, leave their home. We could see Daphne walk out on Carter over the cheating. Or we could see both their marriages ruined.

And then bam, we also find out that Steffy is pregnant and you know, maybe by Carter. And then in a fit of guilt over doing her best friend Daphne so dirty, we could see Steffy go to Daphne and offer to let her adopt the baby if it’s Carter’s kid. That would be interesting. Steffy might give Daphne the gift of motherhood to basically try and redeem herself for sleeping with Carter.

That could get Daphne to forgive Carter and give their marriage another chance because now they’d have a child that is at least biologically half Carter. So it would be similar to Steffy donating an egg to Carter and Daphne except for the pesky fact that she slept with Carter and got that egg fertilized directly. But then to make things even soapier, if Steffy’s pregnant and can’t part with the baby, things could get even crazier.

Bold and Beautiful: Steffy Can’t Give Up Her Baby

We know that Steffy’s an extremely devoted mother to Kelly and Hayes. She loves her children more than anything. So, she might struggle to give up the child, even if it’s not Finn’s baby. Like, remember when Steffy adopted Beth (not knowing that was Hope Logan’s (Annika Noelle) kid), and then they all found out, and then Steffy had to give up the baby?

That was super hard on her. And that child wasn’t biologically hers at all. So, even if there’s a baby that comes from this one night stand and keeping the baby could destroy her marriage, Steffy still might want the kid. So, she might consider letting Carter and Daphne adopt the baby and then has second thoughts.

It’d be even worse if she let them adopt and then she had second thoughts. And if we see a situation where Steffy can’t stay out of the kid’s life, that would be ongoing drama that would give us things to talk about for years to come. And to be fair, Daphne ended her marriage to Carter and handed back her ring.

Bold and the Beautiful: Finn Makes Excuses for Steffy

So, she’s got to blame herself to some extent. I mean, Daphne might actually be angrier with Steffy than Carter. Meanwhile, over at the cliff house, Finn might rationalize it that Steffy called it quits and gave him back her rings and then slept with Carter when she thought their marriage was over.

So likewise, Finn might blame Carter more than he does Steffy. So the low drama option is the cheating secret stays hidden and Carter doesn’t have to face an angry Daphne or an angry Finn and Steffy doesn’t turn up pregnant. But that would be really dull and not soapy at all. I’m expecting that Steffy will be expecting soon, so wait and see.
