In our house, Halloween isn’t just for humans, but finding a costume my cat will actually tolerate? That’s another story. This year, I’m turning to PetSmart’s Thrills & Chills Halloween shop, which has everything from playful full-body costumes to simpler accessories, with several picks priced at $20 or less.

The best part is that there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to dressing up your pet. Whether you have a pup who loves being the center of attention or a cat who would rather make a statement with a simple headpiece, these PetSmart picks make it easier to find a Halloween look that fits your pet’s personality — and, ideally, their comfort level, too.

Claressa Shields has a message about Remy Ma amid the rapper’s pending divorce from Papoose. Not only that, but the pro boxer reminded folks about the artist’s past in the process. The message comes just after Papoose dropped his diss track ‘Jezebel.’

Claressa Shields Tells Off Remy Ma

Claressa Shields apparently went on Instagram Live recently to address the ongoing drama with Remy Ma. Shields apparently began dating Papoose back in 2024, and the two women have been beefing since.

The pro boxer’s Instagram Live was captured in a video shared by Live Bitez. Shields reminded folks that Reminisce went to prison for six years for assault. Smith was convicted after shooting an acquaintance back in 2007 over three grand, per Billboard. The boxer’s message warned the rapper that her diss tracks could land her back in prison.

“I ain’t even mad. It’s just like, but leave me alone, though,” she said. “All that rap and sh*t, all that, you going to get somebody jumped and poked and stabbed, baby, you’d be right back in prison. Right back in that motherf*cker like. And I’m not even gonna have to put you there. I’m surprised nobody put in a complaint on her a*s already.”

Shields also told the ‘Wanna Go‘ artist to leave her be.

“When I really say, ‘Leave me alone,’ I really mean like, bro, LEAVE ME ALONE,” she added. “I am not the problem that you want, bro.”

Shields Addresses Papoose’s Diss Track

Papoose recently wrote a diss track about his soon-to-be-ex-wife called ‘Jezebel‘, and as the title suggests, he did not mince words. Not only did he note he held Smith down while she was in prison, Pap accused Remy of cheating on the track. In addition, the 48-year-old claimed to have written her raps.

Shields defended her man for writing the diss track in footage shared by Live Bitez.

“It’s a good-a*s song. It needed to be said.” she said. “How y’all mad? Somebody makes three diss tracks about me and my man, calling me all types of names, trolling me… Y’all mad at me. Go on. Leave us alone!”

Remy Ma’s Upcoming Diss Track ‘Why I Get Married’ Features Keke Wyatt

Remy Ma’s track, ‘Why I Get Married,’ hasn’t yet dropped, but it’s about to. It features singer KeKe Wyatt, and the track premieres on Friday, September 25.

Remy shared a visual on Instagram the same day her ex dropped ‘Jezebel.’ Judging from the track’s title, the family drama won’t be de-escalating anytime soon.

Furthermore, Reminisce announced on Instagram that she was throwing an “Exclusive Watch Party” for the visual in Newark, New Jersey.

Dancing With the Stars pro Sharna Burgess’ fiancé, Brian Austin Green, is the No. 1 cheerleader of her ballroom comeback.

“My guy, he’s an absolute legend,” Burgess, 41, exclusively told Us at the Tuesday, September 15, live premiere. “Brian, he runs me Epsom salt spas for when I get home. He is taking notes. He’s got food ready for me. He wakes up with me [at] my 5:30 a.m. [alarm] and makes me coffee, like he’s doing everything to hold it down at home and support.”

Burgess and Green, 53, have been together since 2020, pairing up on DWTS the next year. Burgess and the Beverly Hills, 90210 alum, who share 4-year-old son Zane, got engaged in 2023.

Burgess initially left DWTS in 2022 to spend more time with her and Green’s blended family. (In addition to Zane, Green is a father of four from previous relationships.)

Sharna Burgess and Brian Austin Green found happiness together following a PDA-filled Hawaiian vacation in December 2020 — but that was only the beginning of their love story. Burgess first hinted at the romance earlier that month when she exclusively told Us Weekly that she was seeing someone new “It’s been really awesome,” the pro […]

As she made her highly anticipated ballroom return on Tuesday to dance with celebrity partner Tyler Cameron, Green watched from the crowd.

“He was here tonight supporting. He comes when he can,” Burgess told Us. “He’ll bring Zane when he can. He’s, just, my rock, and I’m so grateful for him.”

Burgess and Cameron, 33, earned a 17 out of 30 for their tango to Lenny Kravitz’s “Are You Gonna Go My Way.”

“We were, like, pleasantly surprised to get those 6s,” Burgess added of the duo’s total score. “We know [the judges were] going to start low, give us somewhere to go. We felt like we had a great dance, great critiques from them, all fair, but getting that higher score was just amazing.”

For Burgess, it was especially “unreal” to be back on the dance floor in itself.

“It … feels, in many ways, like I never left. Stepping back out onto this floor just feels comfortable and like home,” she gushed. “But at the same time, coming back to do this with Tyler, the show is insanely magical right now. There’s just so much around it, and being a part of it in this form is such a gift. I’m so grateful.”

There’s something about the low-fi crackle of an old VHS tape that just screams “horror movie.” Just look at The Ring, or the entire V/H/S anthology series. That’s what Sophie Lowe discovers in the new Australian shocker Posthumous, which is set to debut at Fantastic Fest this week. In advance of its world premiere, Collider is proud to exclusively present the first clip from the film.

The film stars Lowe (After the Dark) as Zoe; she’s just turned thirty, and she’s trying to get her life back together, moving back in with her widowed father. As is her annual tradition, every year she watches a different videotape left behind by her late mother, who died in childbirth, to be watched on her birthday. This time, however, things get spooky, and Zoe starts looking into the truth behind her mother’s life and death. She may not like the answers she’s about to find.

As seen in the clip, the tape Zoe watches is not the heartfelt message she’s hoping for. Instead, as she places it in the VCR, it cuts to what appears to be some sort of arcane ritual being performed by participants in robes and hoods before it cuts to her mother, eerily sitting on their couch and singing “Happy Birthday.” Even creepier, even though we see only a few seconds of footage, over half an hour has elapsed…and the real birthday tape is still tucked into a cardboard box. What’s really going on here? You’ll have to find out when Posthumous has its world premiere at Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas on September 19.

Who Are the Creatives Behind ‘Posthumous’?

Posthumous is directed by Josh Tanner; it is his first feature. He co-wrote the script with Jade van der Lei (We Bury the Dead); both also produced the film. In addition to Lowe, the film also stars David Roberts (The Matrix Reloaded), George Pullar (Evil Dead Burn), Doris Younane (Apple Cider Vinegar), Mia Morrissey (Deadloch), Remy Hii (Spider-Man: Far From Home), and Christopher James Baker (True Detective). The film is a production of Imposter Syndrome, and was filmed on location in Queensland, Australia.

Posthumous will have its world premiere at Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas on September 19. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.

Horror continues to have a banger of a year, and now, as we gear up to head into the spooky season, fans of the genre are excited to see what new terrifying twists and turns await in the fall months. One new horror movie coming our way is Littermates, by Scott Tinkham and Michael Woloson. The film puts two survivors in an impossible situation, and Collider is thrilled to bring you an exclusive first look at the trailer ahead of its Fantastic Fest debut. The film introduces us to Liam (Joey Bader) and Mel (Kaylee McGregor), two survivors who find themselves in the cottage of Chester (Oliver Woolf) in the English countryside. He takes care of them, teaching them to communicate, and as they test Chester and his rules, they begin to understand what actually happened to them.

Littermates is described as follows: “As sirens, smoke, and distant threats press closer, Liam and Mel go about their days relearning the simplest tasks inside Chester’s carefully controlled world, while earning “nifties” for good behavior that can be traded for small comforts like karaoke, hot tub time, dance parties, and favorite meals. However, unlike Liam, Mel is far less willing to accept the boundaries of the cottage, growing increasingly drawn to the woods, the locked gate, and the larger world Chester insists is too dangerous to enter. When Mel’s curiosity pushes past Chester’s rules, the fragile order of the cottage is tested, exposing the fear, loyalty, and unanswered questions holding their makeshift family together.”

The new trailer for the film features Bader and McGregor continually looking at each other, saying repeatedly, “I’m sorry this happened to you,” with a flash of scenes from the film. A tennis court, both of the two survivors fighting for their lives, lots of shots of the wilderness, and more. Will Mel and Liam make it out? How did they get to Chester’s to begin with? All of that is left up to our imagination in the trailer for Littermates, and it does keep you on edge!

2026 Is a Great Year for Original Horror

The film was executive produced by Haley Nicole Johnson, who is one of the reasons why we have the new film Obsession. Much like Littermates, the film had its United States premiere at Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas, last year. With Johnson producing both, could this be setting up Littermates to be the next big thing in horror? We don’t know yet, but the trailer does have enough to have us intrigued by what Tinkham and Woloson have in store for us.

You can see what happens to Liam and Mel in Littermates, in theaters on November 6. More information on each entry can be found on the official Fantastic Fest film guide.

Guillermo Rodriguez may have been “Mr. Big Stuff” in his Dancing With the Stars debut, but he didn’t have the judges’ scores to match.

“I think, [for] this cha-cha, we worked on so much,” Rodriguez’s pro partner, Witney Carson, exclusively told Us after the Tuesday, September 15, live premiere. “We really worked on the timing and not rushing it. I think that you know there were bits where we were a little bit off, but he got right back on it and he listened to what I said.”

She continued, “He followed my lead and he performed and he had fun, so honestly, that’s all I can ask for. I’m so proud. The judge’s scores were lame.”

Carson, 32, and Rodriguez, 55, performed a high-energy cha-cha to Jean Knight’s “Mr. Big Stuff” on Tuesday, earning a total score of 10 out of 30 from the judges. (Carrie Ann Inaba gave the Jimmy Kimmel Live! star a 4, while both Derek Hough and Bruno Tonioli each scored the routine a 3.)

While many celebrities tend to shed pounds competing on Dancing With the Stars, season 35 contestant Guillermo Rodriguez said the exact opposite has happened to him. “It’s going good, Jimmy,” Rodriguez, 55, told Jimmy Kimmel of his DWTS rehearsals during the Tuesday, September 8, episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! “It’s a lot of work. My […]

“I was not happy with the score because I think I did good and everything,” Rodriguez told Us of the final tally, joking that Hough, 41, was “dead to us” before realizing that he will return to judge the pair’s Week 2 routine next week. “Oh, never mind. … We love you. We love you. You’re great, man. You’re so sexy.”

While Rodriguez admittedly wasn’t pleased by his leaderboard placement, he was still proud of his performance.

“I’m not too happy with the score, but listen, I listened to Witney. I felt like I’m at home,” he stressed. “I gotta listen to my wife, I gotta listen to my partner. She said, ‘Look at me. Smile. Don’t rush it. Have fun. Enjoy.’”

He continued, “I say Dancing With the Stars is hard, but I passed the first week, so I don’t have nothing else to lose, nothing to prove. I’m here to stay. I’m here to work hard and do my best.”

Despite the low scores, the fans — including one celebrity VIP — have rallied around Rodriguez.

Hannah Einbinder unleashed a blistering message for Ed Sheeran as backlash surrounding Macklemore’s removal from the singer’s Loop Tour continued to intensify. The “Hacks” star shared a post describing Sheeran as a “regular dude” despite his estimated $400 million net worth, but she added a far less flattering message of her own.

Einbinder shared her fiery message alongside an earlier post about Sheeran insisting that he remains an ordinary person despite his enormous financial success.

“Ed Sheeran, I say this as a ginger. I hope you get a REALLY bad sunburn, the kind on the back of your entire body where it hurts to lie down or walk or sit,” Einbinder wrote.

Her remarks came amid a growing dispute over Macklemore being removed from the remaining dates of Sheeran’s tour after making pro-Palestinian comments onstage.

Macklemore Was Removed After Saying ‘Free Palestine’

6

Macklemore had been scheduled to open eight of Sheeran’s final 10 stadium shows in the United States. During performances at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium on September 4 and 5, the rapper used his set to express support for Palestinians.

“A big part of the reason why I wanted to do this tour in the first place is so I could stand up in stadiums like this and say two words that are very near and dear to my heart: ‘Free Palestine,’” Macklemore told the audience.

The rapper also performed “Hind’s Hall,” his protest song supporting Palestinians, while images showing destruction in Gaza appeared on screens inside the stadium.

His performance prompted criticism from some Jewish and pro-Israel groups. The Israeli American Council subsequently circulated a petition urging Sheeran and tour organizers to remove Macklemore from the remaining shows.

Macklemore later claimed that venue owners objected to his message and threatened to prevent Sheeran’s concerts from taking place if he remained on the lineup.

Ed Sheeran Says The Decision Was Not His

6

Sheeran responded to the growing criticism by insisting that he did not personally decide to remove Macklemore. “Macklemore coming off tour was the promoter’s decision, it was not mine,” the singer wrote in a statement shared on Instagram.

Sheeran explained that Macklemore’s contract was with the tour’s promoter rather than with him directly. Messina Touring Group confirmed that venues scheduled to host upcoming shows had warned that they would not allow the concerts to proceed with Macklemore still attached.

“As the concert promoter for Ed Sheeran’s U.S. Loop Tour, we have been notified by venues on the upcoming U.S. tour dates that they will not allow a concert to take place with Macklemore on the lineup, which would result in the cancellation of the tour and impact hundreds of thousands of fans,” the company said.

The promoter added that Macklemore would no longer appear “after discussions with stakeholders.”

Sheeran said he spoke with venues, promoters and activists in an effort to resolve the dispute, but the final decision remained beyond his control. “I have spent this week trying to build bridges, to find a solution and unfortunately, was unable to do so,” he explained, per PEOPLE.

The Singer Defends His Decision To Remain Apolitical

6

Sheeran also pushed back against accusations that his reluctance to discuss the Israel-Palestine conflict meant he did not care about the situation. “I am appalled by the conflict between Israel and Palestine,” he wrote. “The suffering and pain caused on both sides is a human tragedy.”

The singer explained that he does not use his professional platform to discuss politics because his concerts attract people from different backgrounds, including young children. “I am not complicit. I have my personal views on this devastating conflict. Just because I choose not to speak publicly, it doesn’t mean I don’t have them, and it doesn’t mean I don’t care,” Sheeran said.

Sheeran emphasized that he respected Macklemore’s willingness to speak publicly even though their approaches differed, and described his concerts as spaces for “unity, joy, escapism, love, and a place for everyone to feel welcome.”

Other Artists Walk Away From The Loop Tour

6

The controversy grew after multiple performers announced they would no longer participate in the remaining tour dates. Finneas, Lukas Graham, Aaron Rowe and Irish band Beoga withdrew from the tour in solidarity with Macklemore and Palestinians.

Sheeran said he would not cancel the shows because doing so would affect fans, crew members and musicians who rely on the tour for work. “I would never let down the fans who had made plans, nor would I abandon the touring crew and the other support acts and musicians who rely on me for work and to make a living,” he stated.

The ‘Hacks’ Star Has Been Vocal About Palestine

6

Einbinder has repeatedly expressed support for Palestinians while also discussing her Jewish identity. After winning Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for “Hacks” at the 2025 Emmy Awards, she ended her acceptance speech with a pro-Palestinian statement. She later explained that she felt an obligation to distinguish Jewish identity from the policies and military actions of the Israeli government.

Einbinder returned to the Emmys in 2026 as a nominee for the fifth and final season of “Hacks,” which concluded its run earlier this year. She did not win the supporting actress category this time.

Whitney Leavitt just staged an unexpected MomTok reunion!

Former and current Secret Lives of Mormon Wives cast members came together on Tuesday, September 15, to cheer on Whitney’s husband, Conner Leavitt, at the season 35 premiere of Dancing With the Stars.

Whitney shared a video via TikTok in support of Conner, which featured fellow MomTok members Mayci Neeley and Mikayla Matthews — and former costar Demi Engemann.

“Mommy needed some back up 😛👀,” Whitney, 33, wrote over the video as she tried to rally viewer votes for Conner, 32, during Tuesday’s DWTS season premiere.

For some The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives couples, going on a reality TV show made their marriage stronger — while others crumbled under the pressure. When Hulu debuted The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives in September 2024, viewers were introduced to Jen Affleck and husband Zac Affleck, Demi Engemann and husband Bret Engemann, Whitney […]

She captioned the post, “MOMTOK RIDES AT DAWN!!”

Despite Whitney bringing MomTok stars past and present together to support her husband, Conner was the first contestant eliminated from DWTS season 35 alongside professional partner Adele Zaikman.

Demi, 31, left Mormon Wives during production on season 4, which aired in March, amid scrutiny over what happened between her and Marciano Brunette when they filmed Vanderpump Villa in 2024.

Demi previously accused Marciano of “unwanted touch” during production of the show in Italy. Marciano, 33, later filed a lawsuit against Demi, accusing her of damaging his reputation by claiming he was a “sexual predator.”

“The truth is straightforward. Engemann and Marciano met while filming in Italy. They flirted. They spoke privately. They shared a consensual kiss. They separated,” Marciano’s lawsuit, filed in December 2025, read. “After filming, Engemann stayed in contact with Marciano for months through calls, FaceTime, texts, invitations, and even location sharing. That behavior confirms a continued relationship, not a person reacting to sexual assault.”

Marciano and Demi settled the lawsuit out of court in August.

“Demi Engemann, [Mormon Wives producers] Jeff Jenkins Productions LLC, and Marciano Brunette have reached an agreement out of court resolving all claims among them,” a spokesperson for Demi told Us at the time. “The parties will have no further comment on the matter.”

Demi appeared on the first three seasons of Mormon Wives, costarring alongside Whitney, Mayci, Mikayla, Taylor Frankie Paul, Layla Taylor, Jen Affleck and Miranda McWhorter, who joined the cast in season 2.

Whitney announced her departure from the show earlier this year, concluding her stint with the show’s recently aired fifth season.

Earlier this week, Mikayla, 26, confirmed her exit midway through production on season 6, citing Taylor’s involvement in the new season despite recent personal and legal issues.

“I’ve said from the beginning of this that I’m not comfortable being a part of something that continues to platform behavior I don’t agree especially given my own experience growing up in a home with multiple forms of abuse,” Mikayla said via Instagram. “There’s no amount of money worth going against my morals or changing the stance I’ve had since I first saw and heard the things that made me feel this strongly.”
