General Hospital has Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) thinking that she’s going to get some info from Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) about her dead brother. But little does Britt know, Anna is setting a trap for her, and things are going to get really scary for Britt this week.

But there’s a hero in the wings waiting to save her. Today we’re going to talk about Britt Westbourne going missing this week and Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) worrying about her and he may figure out Anna Devane is to blame and save his girlfriend.

General Hospital: Anna Opens Up to Valentin — Britt Confides in Lucas

All right, so this week we saw Britt hanging out at the Metro Court bar with Lucas Jones (Van Hansis). They were having drinks and talking about guys. It was really chill. Meanwhile, Anna was with Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) at the gun range for target practice. And Anna told him even though Cesar Faison (Anders Hove) is dead, Anna just can’t shake him or his memory.

And she told Valentin that makes her vulnerable. Anna told Valentin there are people who want to follow in Faison’s footsteps. People like Cassius Faison (Ryan Paevey) people like Britt. But Valentin countered and said Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) was the one tormenting her, not the other two. And they know that Cullum’s dead and gone.

Anna’s Spiraling on GH

But Anna hates that Cassius was able to fool her. Anna’s angry that she believed Cassius was Nathan. Even though Valentin reminded Anna that Cassius fooled literally everybody, not just her. But Anna insisted she’s not supposed to be just anybody. She thinks she should have known Cassius was not Nathan. And because of ghost Peter August (Wes Ramsey) constantly yammering in Anna’s head, she thinks that Britt is a threat to her and that she won’t be safe until Britt is dead. But Valentin has no idea that Peter is living rent-free in Anna’s head, encouraging her to do these acts of violence she’s planning.

However, Valentin does know that something is wrong because he wanted to take Anna for a drink after the range, but she insisted on staying behind to continue practice shooting some more. And she told Valentin he couldn’t stick around. She said she didn’t need a babysitter. And then Anna made a calculated move. She called Britt and flat out lied and said she got some info from her WSB sources about Cassius and his death and what happened to his body. But Anna’s got no intention of actually looking into Cassius’ death and didn’t reach out to the WSB.

General Hospital: Anna Tricks Britt

But Anna knows that Britt and Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) are desperate for answers. They of course want to know more about what happened to Cassius, whom everybody thinks is dead. And as you know, the only people who know that Britt’s brother is alive is Z (John Oliver) and Cassius himself.

Then they set it up using Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) to make it look like Cassius was the villain. And Britt knows how much Liesl needs some closure about Cassius. So, Britt was real excited to get that call from Anna, and she told Britt she would get in touch with her later to tell her where to meet to get the info.

General Hospital: Anna’s Dark Behavior

And as Anna was talking to Britt, we saw Anna tracing the bullet holes in her paper target at the range. That’s a scary red flag. Also, if you remember, Anna recently convinced Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) to sell her some of his remote mountaintop acreage. And Anna lied and told Sonny that she wants to build a little retreat for herself to get away from it all because of her recent struggles.

He recommended therapy, but she was like, “nah.” And from the moment that Anna talked to Sonny about getting a remote piece of property, I immediately had a feeling Anna was going to use that spot as a place to torture and kill Britt. We even did a video about it right after those Sonny scenes because it’s quiet and secluded with nobody around. Perfect place to do crime.

Anna’s Sinister Plot on GH

And Anna has already picked out the perfect spot, it seems, to do some bad things to Britt because Peter told her to. We also know this week Anna lures Britt out there promising her the info about Cassius that Liesl wants. Britt asks Anna why they had to meet all the way out there. And she pulls a gun on Britt.

And it takes a really scary turn as Anna says, “So no one can hear you scream.” So this coming out of Anna’s mouth is going to terrify Britt. And it’s going to be even worse because I think Anna’s going to start talking to ghost Peter in front of Britt. That seems inevitable.

Britt Goes Missing on General Hospital

Once Anna snatches her, obviously it’s going to be noticed. Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst) will be calling and leaving messages asking why Britt missed work. Anna can use Britt’s phone though to send back a text saying she’s taken off or she’s out sick or she quit or whatever. I’m betting that Lucas would reach out as well. And of course, Anna can handle that with a text.

Honestly, Elizabeth and Stella Henry (Vernee Watson) might believe that Britt just took off again and was flaking out on her job at General Hospital because she’s a repeat offender. However, I don’t think Jason will buy this for a minute. He knows Britt wouldn’t leave town without telling him and has no reason to leave at all. And there’s nothing that Anna can text from Britt’s phone that will convince Jason otherwise.

Anna’s Strategy on General Hospital

So, it looks like Anna may trap her and then leave Britt out there because we know Anna is heading back to Port Charles, possibly for alibi purposes. Based on official General Hospital spoilers after that, Jason and Anna cross paths. And I’m betting that Jason’s going to realize something is off with Anna, just like Valentin realized it, because Jason knows Anna pretty well by now.

Jason may figure out Anna’s lying to him and seems nervous, but Jason may not know why. Meanwhile, he’s worried about Britt. And if Jason reaches out to Liesl, because remember, they’re supposed to have that barbecue that she was going to have, that family dinner they were talking about. If she doesn’t know where Britt is, then Jason may get more worried.

Jason Gets Suspicious on GH

And if he and Liesl realize nobody’s heard from Britt, then Jason’s going to start asking around. He may go see Liz up at General Hospital, talk to Lucas, talk to Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros), and then Jason may circle back to Anna and say he wants to open a missing person’s case. And I expect she’ll tell Jason the PCPD can’t open a case because Britt has a history of going missing. She’s an adult. She sent text messages. You know, if Jason says the messages seem strange, Anna may argue it doesn’t matter. Those texts are proof that Britt’s not missing. Just another red flag.

And if Jason has suspicions but gets nowhere with Anna, but senses she’s being evasive, we could see Jason turning to Sonny to talk things over. I would suspect he would then tell Jason Anna seemed anxious when she visited and Sonny suggested therapy and she pushed back. And Sonny will likely mention to Jason that he sold some mountain acreage to Anna. I don’t think Sonny would mention it with the idea of, “Oh yeah, that’s probably where she took Britt.”

But Sonny may mention it as an aside about Anna’s mental health struggles and that she wanted to build a retreat there. Especially if Jason goes looking for Anna after that, finds out she’s not at the PCPD when she should be, she’s not at her place, Emma Scorpio Drake (Braedyn Bruner) doesn’t know where she is, and she’s not taking calls. So Jason’s smart enough to put two and two together and suspect that Anna might have done something to Britt.

Jason Gets Anna Help on General Hospital

And Jason may hope Anna isn’t responsible for Britt going missing, but wants to make sure. And I suspect he’ll go out to that remote property, and Jason plays hero, saves Britt, but then also needs to save Anna from herself. I’m sure Britt would want to press charges, and from there, Jason will try and talk Britt out of it.

There’s a lot of ways for this to go, and I’m sure Jason’s take when all this comes out is Anna needs help, especially when he finds out Peter is in her head. I’m guessing Jason may have to remind Britt of all the second chances she’s gotten and that there’s a reason she needs to show Anna some grace.

Jenni ‘JWoww’ Farley has revealed a terrifying health scare she recently faced.

The “Jersey Shore” star gave fans a glimpse into how things looked very different from what she imagined for the first day of the school year with her kids due to her medical issues. She disclosed that although the illness did not hit her with a shock wave, it was still a horrible experience.

Jenni ‘JWoww’ Farley has been open about her health battles in the past, including her struggles with substance use, boxing injuries, and TMJ dysfunction.

JWoww spilled the beans on a frightening health scare that landed her in the hospital. The reality TV star disclosed that she has spent the past week, which she described as “one of the hardest weeks of my life,” fighting to recover fully.

She detailed that her focus has been on trying to get healthy enough to be back home with her husband and kids after being hospitalized due to a “horrible kidney infection and appendicitis.”

The “Jersey Shore: Family Vacation” star admitted the illness didn’t come out of nowhere, as she had been experiencing certain symptoms in recent months. “Weight loss, exhaustion, constantly feeling off JWoww wrote, adding, “… and then last Friday, my body finally said, ‘We aren’t making it like this anymore.’” 

Fans sent prayers for a speedy recovery to the TV personality. “Sending nonstop prayers, love, and hugs your way,” a commenter wrote. “Hope you have a speedy recovery, Jenny,” another added.

‘First Day Of School’ Pictures Looked Different For The TV Star This Year

“Not the ‘first day of school’ picture I wanted to post… but then again, I guess we wouldn’t have one. [red heart emoji]” JWoww’s Instagram post began. She attached a lengthy caption to a photo in which she posed in a hospital gown with her two kids, Meilani and Greyson, and to a video showing her straightening her daughter’s hair in what appears to be a hospital bathroom.

She said it was a tradition to do Meilani’s hair on the first day of school, so despite her health issues, she had to make it work. The TV personality praised her husband, Zack Carpinello, for making sure the kids got to the hospital “extra early” so they could spend some quality time together.

“We didn’t get the normal first-day morning. We got hospital bracelets, a hospital room, backpacks, hair supplies, and a memory I don’t think any of us will ever forget,” JWoww penned. She explained that this year’s situation made her realize how many other children will be going to school having dealt with things “that may have changed their lives forever” over the summer.

JWoww advised her fans to remind their children to be kind to others because they never know what secret battles they are fighting.

More From The Blast

Fans Previously Raised Concerns About Jenni ‘JWoww’ Farley‘s Weight

JWoww’s hospitalization comes about three months after she addressed online criticism of her weight. At the time, fans reacted to a swimsuit photo she posted, highlighting that she looked underweight.

In response to the critics, the media personality made a video clarifying that she had been working out, but not to lose weight. She also revealed that she received a Google alert about an article claiming that she looked “deathly sick.”

“I don’t even know what to say,” she said in the video. “A girl can never win. You gain weight, you’re a fat piece of sh-t. You lose weight, you must be dying of some sort of horrendous disease.”

JWoww noted that her weight fluctuates due to factors like her age, routine, and gender. She also disclosed that she was briefly ill after a trip to Miami, which contributed to the weight loss. The TV star highlighted how the world is never satisfied, as there is always talk about whether she is gaining or losing weight.

The Mom Of Two Had Postpartum Mental Health Struggles

The “Snooki & JWoww” star previously revealed that she went through what she believes to be postpartum psychosis during her motherhood journey. She described the experience as deeply disorienting and difficult to put into words, adding that it inspired her psychological thriller “Nanny Cam.”

According to the Cleveland Clinic, Postpartum Psychosis is a rare, reversible but severe mental health condition that affects people after they give birth. Hallucinations, delusions, thoughts of self-harm, and disorganized thinking, among others, characterize it.

In an interview with Kylie Kelce, JWoww revealed that after having her daughter, she was filming “Snooki &JWoww” at a production house outfitted with cameras. After the show wrapped, she realized she had become so anxious that she began installing cameras in her real home, too. She disclosed that she became extremely paranoid during that time, and even though “Nanny Cam” had been dramatized, it could be someone’s real story.

Jenni ‘JWoww’ Farley Is Not The First ‘Jersey Shore’ Star To Have Kidney Issues

In 2013, “Jersey Shore” OG, Ronnie Ortiz-Margo, was hospitalized for kidney stones. His rep at the time confirmed that he was suffering from kidney stones after he wrote “Hospital” on X on April 28.

According to The Los Angeles Times, Ortiz-Margo was admitted to an Orlando, Florida-area hospital shortly after he expressed that “he started feeling uncomfortable.” The feeling began while he was promoting his new beverage, Smush Cocktails, at the Wine and Spirits Wholesalers of America convention.

His rep shared that the TV star was in a lot of pain and was expected to remain hospitalized for several days. He later told some followers on social media that he had both a kidney stone and an infection.  He described the experience as “uncomfortable” and the “worst feeling” he wouldn’t wish on anyone.

Science fiction and fantasy are two different genres that share more than a few things in common. For starters, there’s the often epic heft: some science fiction and fantasy novels craft a narrative that lasts for years, growing to be major inspirations for other works of art. Two key examples are J.R.R. Tolkien‘s Lord of the Rings trilogy, which remains a landmark in the fantasy genre for its epic worldbuilding, and Frank Herbert‘s Dune, which grew to inspire other sci-fi series like Star Wars. One television show took this approach to heart, as it was built to reflect the structure of a novel while also featuring plenty of world building and the epic sweep that drives Dune and Lord of the Rings.

That series is none other than Babylon 5. Created by J. Michael Straczynski, Babylon 5 takes place in the aftermath of a war between humanity and an alien race known as the Minbari. The Babylon 5 space station was launched to serve as a ground where different species can gather to resolve their issues. Over the course of 110 episodes, it also becomes the center of a new interstellar war and a gripping story that involves political intrigue, ancient evils, and a cast of characters who are forever changed by the series’ end. While Babylon 5 remains a cult classic, it also helped launch many of the trends that dominate television today.

‘Babylon 5’ Features a Story With a Truly Epic Scale

Image via PTEN

What sets Babylon 5 apart from other television series is the fact that it was built with a beginning, middle, and end in mind. J. Michael Stracyzynski developed the series to last for five seasons, with each season consisting as a “chapter” in the overall narrative. This meant that episodes in Season 1 could sow seeds that planted the fruit for future episodes, resulting in a story that grows richer with meaning upon revisiting it. A key example concerns Babylon 5‘s commander, Jeffrey Sinclair (Michael O’Hare), who learns that he is meant to be a hero to the Minbari. Season 3 eventually pays this off, having Sinclair travel back in time to fulfill his destiny.

This approach also meant that Straczynski could let his characters grow in ways that weren’t seen on television, and play with the narrative in unique ways. Sinclair’s successor, John Sheridan (Bruce Boxleitner), transforms from a diplomat to a revolutionary when he declares Babylon 5 as independent of the Earth’s government, and eventually a hero as he restores democracy to Earth following his battle against the malevolent aliens known as the Shadows. Another example concerns the Psi-Corps, a group of telepaths led by the mysterious Alfred Bester (Walter Koenig), as the Season 5 episode “The Corps is Mother, the Corps is Father” takes place entirely from their perspective. In a day and age where television shows are cut down in their prime or have smaller amounts of episodes to tell a story, Babylon 5 is a miracle of storytelling.

“Peak TV” Wouldn’t Exist Without ‘Babylon 5’

Babylon 5 faced an uphill battle throughout its run, having to deal with a competitor in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and a network shift at the tail end of Season 4. Despite this, it finished its run and set the stage for what’s known as “Peak TV”. Most people who’ve heard the term “Peak TV” know that it chronicles an era where genre shows like Game of Thrones and Lost drew in characters with rich, constantly shifting characters and a strong mythology. Peak TV was especially kind to the science fiction genre, as Battlestar Galactica and The Expanse followed very closely in Babylon 5‘s footsteps.

Over the years, J. Michael Straczynski has tried to build upon the world of Babylon 5, but very few of these efforts took off. A direct sequel series, Crusade, only lasted a single season. A potential movie never got off the ground. Things started to change in 2023, when Straczynski reunited with most of the Babylon 5 cast for the animated movie Babylon 5: The Road Home. A reboot of the series is also in the works, with Warner Bros. looking for interested buyers. If you want a sci-fi series that feels truly epic, then Babylon 5 should be on your radar.

“Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Kim Zolciak is facing a difficult challenge, as her son, Kroy Biermann Jr., has been indicted in Georgia on multiple criminal charges. The news of her son KJ’s legal woes comes days after he was arrested and accused of sexually assaulting one of his classmates. Since his arrest, Zolciak has advocated for her son and denied the claims. Before the indictment, KJ also wrote to the judge, asking for his release.

According to TMZ, Zolciak’s son has been indicted on seven criminal charges by a grand jury. Some of the charges include aggravated sodomy, aggravated sexual battery, three counts of aggravated sexual battery, and false imprisonment.

KJ was arrested last month, according to The Blast, for alleged aggravated sodomy and sexual battery after one of his high school classmates accused him of assaulting her at a Lifetime Fitness in April.

The legal documents state that KJ allegedly asked his classmate to go to a different part of the facility, and on the way there, he forced her mouth on his private area and “digitally penetrated her v-gina.”

‘RHOA’ Star Kim Zolciak Defends Her Son After His Arrest

Zolciak broke her silence after her son’s arrest, telling TMZ that she was disheartened by the “reckless” claims.

“The allegations being made against my son are nothing short of reckless and deeply troubling. He categorically denies ever being involved with this woman or engaging in the conduct she has alleged,” she said.

According to Zolciak, who has four other children with former NFL star Kroy Biermann, her son voluntarily took a lie detector test and “passed.” She also noted that police documents stated no male DNA was found on the alleged victim.

Zolciak said that KJ’s alleged victim has made “similar allegations involving two other people, which raises serious concerns that deserve to be carefully examined,” adding that the accusations can have “devastating consequences.”

Lawyer Representing Kim Zolciak’s Son Breaks Silence

Speaking with Us Weekly, Jason Sheffield, Zolciak’s son’s attorney, said that despite the family’s life in the public eye, they deserve some privacy.

“First and foremost, this is not the kind of information that should be for public dissemination. These are juveniles,” Sheffield said. “Secondly, my client is 100 percent innocent and tried to present evidence to the arresting officer, including a passed polygraph by a notable and respected sex offender polygrapher.”

Zolciak’s Son Wants Out Of Jail

Since being locked up, Zolciak’s son has made a new request to the court, asking to be released.

Sheffield wrote to the court on his client’s behalf and cited his “strong academic achievement” and participation in “extracurricular and community-based activities.”

“He is an accomplished football player who has received scholarship offers based upon his athletic ability,” he noted further.

Sheffield went on to say that KJ has five other siblings and is “surrounded by an established community of extended family, friends, coaches, teachers and others who remain actively involved in his life and continue to support him and his family during the pendency of these serious allegations.”

Zolciak Celebrated Son’s Birthday In May

Zolciak’s son was arrested three months after the reality star celebrated his birthday in late May 2026. The Bravo star shared a carousel of images on her Instagram and posted a heartfelt caption all about how her life has changed for the better with KJ in it.

“You taught me strength, compassion, patience, and what the mother-son bond truly means. You are my heart walking outside of my body, and every day you amaze me,” she wrote. “No matter how old you get, you will always be my baby, my greatest blessing, and one of my proudest accomplishments. I am grateful every day that I get to be your mom.”

On this episode of ‘Stepping Into The Shade Room,’ two-time Olympic gold medalist Claressa Shields is sitting down to discuss everything from severe childhood trauma, her relationship with Papoose, “mistress” allegations, training Chrisean Rock, her acting dreams, and more. As she chats with host Thembi, Shields gets candid about her life in and out of the ring.

Claressa Shields Opens Up About Overcoming Childhood Abuse

About 12 minutes into the conversation, Claressa Shields spoke about being sexually assaulted at the age of five. Per Shields, the act was committed by her mother’s boyfriend. And she and her mother never spoke about the incident until she was around 16 or 17 years old.

“I felt like she chose the relationship over me,” Shields told Thembi. “… We didn’t have a good relationship. It was always, like, me fighting her boyfriends and me having beef with them. I just didn’t like the men that used to be around.”

Shields explained that as she got older, she forgave her mother and felt free enough to share her story.

She Sets The Record Straight On “Mistress” Claims

Around the 30-minute mark, Shields discussed her romance with Papoose. She doubled down on stating that she has never been the rapper’s “mistress” or “sidechick.”

“It’s been lies that’s been told. But it has nothing to do with us,” she said. “… I was never no damn mistress. I was never no sidechick. Get the f**k out of here. That doesn’t make sense. When they realize what happened on the other side, that’s when you can understand…”

The cast of MobLand will all be returning for season 2 — but who will be part of season 3 after rumors of a cast member being fired?

The hit crime drama, which premiered in 2025, follows Harry (Tom Hardy) as a fixer working for the Harrigan crime family led by Conrad (Pierce Brosnan) and Maeve (Helen Mirren). Paddy Considine, Joanne Froggatt, Lara Pulver, Anson Boon and Mandeep Dhillon also star.

Concern about the show’s future arose after multiple reports released in 2026 claiming there was drama behind the scenes on set. (Mobland had already completed production for season 2 amid plans for a renewal).

According to Puck, Hardy was allegedly fired from the series after filming wrapped on season 2. A source told The Hollywood Reporter at the time that Hardy “refused to come out of his trailer for hours at a time.”

Variety, meanwhile, reported that Hardy “was not fired,” with an insider close to production claiming that “the door is not closed for season 3 and things are being worked through creatively.”

Hardy’s rumored exit wasn’t the first time MobLand faced speculation about offscreen drama. In December 2025, the Daily Mail reported that Mirren wasn’t thrilled by Hardy’s lateness, which she addressed in a light-hearted manner.

“Things I love,” she wrote via Instagram at the time. “Tom Hardy for his brilliance on screen [and] his dedication off screen.”

Mirren went on to praise Hardy’s “good heart” and “especially the HardyHugs I get when onset with him which is not nearly enough in my opinion.”

Keep scrolling to see who will — and won’t — return in season 2:

She said the guy who did the repair took her car for a “joyride, for a night out.” Taina also said that buddy had “multiple” girls in her vehicle, but she definitely didn’t let the incident slide.

“…I went crazy. Like, I can’t even believe how unprofessional someone could be? And then leave evidence. They left evidence,” Taina Williams said.

Afterward, she took her fans on a tour of the inside of vehicle the repairman used. The evidence left behind included a red solo cup, ruined pink floor mats, makeup on her custom pink seats, hair strands and a McDonald’s receipt. Her caption on the video read, “My blood is boiling.” Williams said her car was completely spotless at drop-off and that even her kids don’t get in that particular car. She added that her car was given to a trusted person who handles their vehicles, and he passed it off to the person who took it on a joyride.

“That happened to my mom. She took her car to a new shop for a belt to be replaced. The guy let his 17 year old daughter drive it to the store. We got a call my mothers car was totaled. She won in court and he closed the shop,” @day_teisha added.

Nearly 30 years after the murder of Tupac Shakur, a Las Vegas jury has delivered a historic verdict in one of the most infamous unsolved cases in music history.

Duane “Keffe D” Davis has been found guilty of first degree murder with the use of a deadly weapon in connection with the 1996 drive by shooting that killed Shakur.

Davis, 63, is the first person ever convicted in connection with the rapper’s death.

The verdict came Monday following a weeks long trial and only a few hours of jury deliberations. Davis was accused of orchestrating the attack that ultimately resulted in Shakur’s death, despite prosecutors not alleging that Davis himself fired the fatal shots.

Prosecutors argued that Davis helped organize the shooting as retaliation following a confrontation at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas earlier that night.

Shakur and members of his entourage had been involved in a physical altercation with Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson, Davis’ nephew, after attending a Mike Tyson boxing match.

Later that evening, Shakur was riding in a BMW driven by Death Row Records co-founder Marion “Suge” Knight when a white Cadillac pulled alongside their vehicle near the Las Vegas Strip.

Someone inside the Cadillac opened fire.

Shakur was struck multiple times, while Knight was also wounded. Shakur died from his injuries six days later on September 13, 1996. He was just 25 years old.

The identity of the person who actually fired the shots has remained one of the biggest questions surrounding the case. Prosecutors did not need to prove Davis was the shooter, arguing instead that his alleged role in organizing and facilitating the attack made him criminally responsible for the murder.

A major part of the prosecution’s case came from Davis himself.

Over the years, Davis publicly discussed his presence inside the Cadillac and details surrounding the shooting in interviews and his 2019 memoir, Compton Street Legend. Prosecutors used those statements to argue that Davis had repeatedly admitted his involvement in the events leading to Shakur’s death.

Davis’ defense argued that those accounts were exaggerated or fabricated and pointed to the lack of physical and forensic evidence connecting him to the shooting.

The jury ultimately sided with prosecutors.

Tupac Shakur

The conviction represents a stunning conclusion to a case that remained officially unsolved for decades and generated countless theories, documentaries, books and investigations.

Shakur remains one of the most influential artists in hip hop history. Despite his death at only 25, his music and cultural influence have continued for generations, with songs including California Love, Changes, Dear Mama and Hail Maryremaining among the most recognizable tracks of his career.

Davis now faces the possibility of life in prison.

For Tupac Shakur’s family, friends and millions of fans around the world, the verdict marks the first criminal conviction in a case that has remained unanswered for nearly three decades.
