Ms. Rachel is opening up about the backlash she faced after publicly supporting Palestine.

The children’s educator, whose real name is Rachel Anne Accurso, has been an outspoken supporter of the war-torn region since 2023.

In a new interview, she revealed that she is still coming to terms with the criticism but has no plans to stop advocating for the causes she believes in.

In late 2023, after seeing videos of Palestinian children watching episodes of “Ms. Rachel,” Accurso was confronted with the reality of what those children were going through.

Since then, she has repeatedly spoken out against the war in Palestine, particularly the killing of children in the region. Her advocacy has drawn significant backlash.

However, reflecting on everything that has happened, the children’s educator recently revealed that she remains committed to speaking up.

“I wouldn’t change anything,” she revealed during a sit-down with Rolling Stone. “I’m going to stand with them no matter what…People on the ground in Gaza are risking their lives all the time to help kids. I can do it from Manhattan.”

Ms. Rachel Explains What Helped People Connect With Her Advocacy

Despite the backlash she has received, Accurso’s advocacy has resonated with many people concerned about the killings in Gaza.

But that wasn’t always the case. She explained that a shift in her approach helped people connect with her message.

“When I first started talking about Gaza, some people didn’t connect. I realized I had to humanize the kids. That was what needed to happen for people to get involved,” she revealed to the outlet.

She added, “There’s so much attacking in our world, and yelling at each other; it pains me when people don’t have that experience, and so they didn’t see [Palestinian children] that way. But I really believe in people’s ability to learn and change.”

Ms. Rachel Recalls Feeling Like ‘Everyone Hated Me’

Even with the progress she has made, Accurso knows many people still do not support her advocacy.

At one point over the last few years, she felt that the negative sentiment had grown even among some of her supporters. It left her wondering why so many people seemed to take issue with her efforts.

“I thought everyone hated me at one point. I remember calling friends and family members, Jewish and not Jewish, and just being like, ‘Why do people hate that I don’t want kids to be killed and starved?’” she recalled.

Ms. Rachel’s Husband Stands Behind Her: ‘She Genuinely Cares’

Through it all, Accurso has had the unwavering support of her husband, Aron, with whom she shares two children, Susannah and Thomas.

“I’m very proud of all the work that Rachel’s doing,” Aron chimed in during the interview. “She wants the best for all the children of the world. She genuinely cares. I know that, and she knows that. And everything else is noise.”

Ms. Rachel’s Advocacy Extends Beyond Palestine

Accurso’s advocacy extends beyond her support for Palestine. She has used her platform to speak out on several issues affecting children and families.

She previously challenged former New York Mayor Eric Adams over proposed cuts to early-childhood education in the city’s 2024 budget and has also criticized President Donald Trump’s ICE detention practices.

Her work has included fundraising efforts for children caught up in conflicts around the world, including those affected by displacement in Sudan and the war in Ukraine.

Beyond conflict-related issues, Accurso has consistently highlighted the effects of poverty and food insecurity on children as they grow.

Britney Spears recently made a remark in a since-deleted Instagram post about her estranged father, Jamie Spears, which has reportedly upset her family.

The comment was featured in a message about the lack of freedom she says she experienced during the nearly 14 years she was under a conservatorship, which officially ended on November 12, 2021.

Britney Spears’ unresolved issues with her father over her conservatorship have now come up again as sources claim the singer’s relatives are “appalled” by the perceived attack on Jamie when he’s sick.

5

Britney, 44, made the “needlessly cruel” comment while sharing a post celebrating the birthdays of her sons Jayden James Federline, 20, and Sean Preston Federline, 21, who were born September 12 and September 14, respectively.

According to reports, in the now-deleted post, Britney recalled her experience under the conservatorship, particularly the restrictions put on her movements because of it.

Britney wrote, “For 15 years I was never allowed to say my name in the land of the free and travel spontaneously,” adding that she was only able to travel for work for her parents.

The “Toxic” singer then made the remark that has reportedly riled up her family. She said, “I wonder why God took my father’s legs away?”

Her comment referenced her father, who had his right leg amputated in 2023 because of a bacterial infection that persisted despite multiple surgeries and weeks in the hospital.

Why The Family Is Upset With The Singer

5

A source shared with Star Magazine that members of the Spears family were unhappy about her publicly dragging her sick father.

“This is being seen as needlessly cruel by her poor family, not to mention Jamie, who is in very poor health as it is,” the source told the outlet.

Jamie is said to have “given up” on the singer ever letting go of her resentment towards him and has accepted that there is no fixing their relationship.

The insider added that Britney lashing out at her father “this publicly with so much rage” remains difficult for him as well as other relatives.

Lynn Spears, the singer’s mother, and her siblings Jamie Lynn Spears and Bryan Spears were described as being “appalled” that she would so openly criticize her father while he is dealing with ill health.

For Britney, however, she believes, as per the source, that she has “every right to call him out after the hell he put her through.”

About Britney Spears’ Conservatorship Struggle

5

Britney’s comment and general feelings about her father come after the 13 years of conservatorship that restricted her movements and governed her personal and financial affairs.

The arrangement began in 2008 after a public breakdown and saw her father exercise some authority over Britney’s estate and personal affairs.

She has reportedly described her time spent under her father’s control as conservator of her estate as traumatic, while he insisted he only did what was best for his daughter.

According to The Blast, Jamie was removed as her conservator in September 2021, and the conservatorship itself was terminated by a judge two months later in November, ending a legal arrangement that prompted the #FreeBritney movement.

The Singer Wrote About Her Conservatorship Experience In Her Memoir

5

Britney candidly wrote about her experiences during her conservatorship in her 2023 memoir, “The Woman in Me.”

In the book, the singer detailed how she felt having her father and others exercise control over her life as they “robbed” her of her freedom.

“Thirteen years went by with me feeling like a shadow of myself. I think back now on my father and his associates having control over my body and my money for that long, and it makes me feel sick,” she wrote.

Her latest Instagram comment targeting her father appears to be fallout from 13 years of being in a situation that she says stripped her “of [her] womanhood.”

The Relationship Between Britney Spears And Her Father Remains Sour

5

Britney and her father continued to get further estranged through legal disputes over legal fees associated with the conservatorship battle.

People Magazine reported that the dispute was settled more than two years after the conservatorship was terminated, with Britney paying $2.12 million in full for Jamie’s legal bills.

While the conservatorship and subsequent legal dispute ended, their estrangement and Britney’s resentment did not.

She is reportedly still “scarred from the conservatorship” and blames her father for it “a thousand percent.”

According to the Star source, she believes Jamie took away years of her life, and “She is very angry, and she doesn’t care who knows it.”

Jason Sudeikis and Olivia Wilde went through a highly publicized split six years ago, and new reports have now revealed just how much the split inspired critical moments in the entertainment industry.

The couple’s bitter dissolution reportedly served as a central reference point for an upcoming television project created and written by George Kay.

Sudeikis and Wilde were engaged for seven years until they eventually called it quits in 2020 and embarked on a high-profile custody battle for their children.

Sky’s upcoming eight-part divorce drama “War,” created and written by Kay, centers on the devastating split between tech mogul Morgan Henderson, played by Dominic West, and his movie star wife Carla Duval, played by Sienna Miller. 

While Kay noted that the show remains an original story with fictional characters, he admitted to incorporating “little lifts off real life.” According to the Daily Mail, Miller acknowledged the real-world connection, saying, “It’s awful, and it’s based on a real-life event we’re all probably familiar with.”

The creative premise mirrors the breakup between Wilde and Sudeikis, who began dating in 2011, got engaged in 2013, and share two children, Otis and Daisy, before their split led to a protracted custody struggle.

“I think Carla probably thinks that (the divorce) will be a little bit messy, that she’ll get what she asks for. But at that moment, she decides that it’s too late,” Sienna said.

West added that while his character is initially stunned by the incident, it sets off an all-out confrontation, remarking that “what he does on the declares war.” 

Notably, Sky has already renewed “War” for a second season, which will shift into an anthology format focused on a major defamation trial. 

‘War’ Follows A High-Stakes Legal Drama Starring Sienna Miller And Dominic West

Besides the narrative ties to real-world celebrity breakups, the television series features an extensive ensemble cast alongside its lead stars, Miller and West. 

Created by “Lupin” and “Hijack” writer George Kay, the upcoming drama depicts the intense conflict between rival London law firms Cathcarts & Sons and Taylor & Byrne as they battle over the high-profile divorce of tech entrepreneur Morgan Henderson and film star Carla Duval. 

The series features Phoebe Fox and James McArdle as Taylor & Byrne partners Serena Byrne and Nicholas Taylor, alongside Nina Sosanya and Pip Torrens playing Cathcarts & Sons rivals Beatrice “Queen Bea” Ubosi and St John Smallwood, per Variety.

The series premieres October 1 on HBO before streaming on HBO Max, with its U.K. debut following on October 2 across Sky and NOW.

Olivia Wilde Previously Opened Up About The Turning Point That Marked The End Of Her Longtime Romance

While the television adaptation dramatizes high-stakes relationship breakdowns, Wilde herself has previously opened up about the exact personal moment that signaled the end of her real-life romance with Sudeikis.

During an appearance on Alex Cooper’s “Call Her Daddy” podcast, Wilde reflected on how personal relationship dynamics inspire her filmmaking. She pointed to the specific moment in March 2020 following her birthday party when she realized her engagement to Sudeikis was over. 

They were driving home when she asked him if he had gotten her a birthday present, and he replied, “What would I get you, Olivia? I don’t know you,” as reported by The Blast.

The exchange made Wilde realize that she and her former partner were no longer on the same page.

The Actress Also Recalled The Traumatizing Onstage Incident

Adding to the emotional toll of the breakup, Wilde also experienced highly public legal disruptions as a result of the split.

According to The Blast, she spoke candidly about being served with custody documents on behalf of Sudeikis while presenting her movie “Don’t Worry Darling” at CinemaCon in 2022. 

She described the moment as incredibly traumatizing” and noted that she managed to maintain her composure on stage before breaking down in private.

Jason Sudeikis Opened Up About Dating As An Older Parent

Just as Wilde has struggled to pick up the pieces of her life following the devastating breakup, Sudeikis has also had his fair share of troubles. He recently shared his perspective on navigating single life after ending his long engagement to Wilde.

The Blast reported that the 50-year-old “Ted Lasso” star discussed the realities of stepping back into the social scene as a single father. 

When asked whether he was open to having more children in the future, Sudeikis confirmed he would be open to expanding his family if he fell in love again. However, he shared that his head was in a different place and jumping back into the dating pool seemed overwhelming.

Deputies discovered a man allegedly murdered his mother after they were called to a burglary in upstate New York.

Joseph A. Petrella was charged with second-degree murder in the death of Amy M. Hogan, according to a Tuesday, September 15, news release from the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office. He’s also charged with second-degree larceny and petit larceny.

Petrella, 39, is accused of cutting and fatally stabbing Hogan, 60, in her torso during a confrontation that occurred at a mobile home in Penfield sometime between Saturday, September 12, and Sunday, September 13, according to a criminal complaint obtained by WHEC-TV.

On Sunday, Hogan’s body was found inside of a bathtub, “wrapped in a plastic shower curtain,” the complaint states.

A Florida man was arrested after he allegedly dumped his missing mother’s body into a river, which was weighted down with chains and cinder blocks. Deputies with the Lee County Sheriff’s Office went to a home in North Fort Myer’s to take a missing person’s report from Joshua Cullen on May 25, according to Fox […]

Several frozen items were packed around her body, according to the filing, which noted there appeared to be an attempt to hide her body.

Deputies were ultimately led to Hogan’s body following a 911 call that came from Petrella’s neighbor, the sheriff’s office said.

The neighbor said a person had broken into their car and home, Monroe County Chief Deputy Michael Fowler said during a Tuesday news conference. They also reported some of their items went missing.

While investigating, deputies “were pointed to” Petrella, who they then questioned, according to Fowler.

During questioning, Petrella invited deputies into his home, where they continued to investigate.

While inside, one deputy noticed unusual signs and became increasingly concerned, Fowler said. Then, Hogan’s body was found.

Petrella was subsequently arrested.

Fowler credited deputies for being able “to identify that there was something much more significant going on here besides just a burglary.”

Petrella was arraigned and ordered to be held without bail at the Monroe County Jail on Tuesday, according to Fowler.

Information on whether he retained legal counsel wasn’t immediately available.

Lori Broccolo, a woman who described herself as Hogan’s lifelong friend, told WHEC-TV that the slain mother “was a best friend to everyone.”

“Finding out how horrible this was for her was hard because she was such a bright light, and I know everyone says that when someone dies, but she lit up a room,” Broccolo added.

Hogan, who was born in Rochester, is survived by her mother, two brothers, four of her children, including Petrella, and two grandchildren, according to her online obituary.

The obituary described Hogan as “a woman of many talents” who enjoyed painting, crocheting, pottery, gardening, cooking and more.

“She was a creative person in everything, and that creativity shone especially bright when she was creating for her family,” the page states. “Whether the creations were edible, decorative, or in making magic for every holiday and birthday, her touch was everywhere in her family and among her friends.”

Throughout the past few decades, there have been plenty of television shows that have been impacted by behind-the-scenes chaos. Whether rumors swirled because of misconduct allegations, like Kevin Spacey in House of Cards, or co-stars feuding, like in Glee, there’s always the potential that a show’s offscreen drama can lead to its downfall. Sometimes it works to simply fire the offending actor, like Chevy Chase in Community, but that doesn’t always address the deeper issues lurking within a troubling environment on set. Unfortunately, one crime drama currently airing on CBS is following a path that could spell cancellation in the future.

‘Matlock’ Has Been Having Behind-the-Scenes Issues

Matlock, set to premiere its third season next year, is by far one of the best shows on network television. The legal drama showcases an extraordinary, Emmy-nominated performance from Kathy Bates, not to mention a fantastic supporting cast of Skye P. Marshall, Jason Ritter, and Beau Bridges. With an impressive 93% Rotten Tomatoes score, Matlock has been a designated hit for the network. But the show’s problems began when David Del Rio, who played young lawyer Billy Martinez, was fired in October 2025 after an alleged incident of sexual assault. CBS conducted an internal investigation, and Del Rio was terminated. The actor subsequently filed a lawsuit against CBS this March, claiming he was falsely accused and had suffered “substantial professional and reputational harm.” The arbitration proceedings with the studio are still ongoing, but Del Rio was written out of Matlock in Season 2.

These events would have been controversial enough for the drama, but another lawsuit was filed in June, in which showrunner and creator, Jennie Snyder Urman, was accused by former Matlock story editor and writer, John Lowe, of creating a hostile work environment and making both racist and sexually inappropriate comments on set. CBS and executive producers Nicki Renna and Jeffrey Lieber were also named in the lawsuit. Just last week, CBS filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, disputing Lowe’s version of events. Their filing lists several reasons that Lowe’s complaints are unfounded and is likely to set up a significant upcoming legal battle between CBS and Lowe.

Behind-the-Scenes Chaos Is Already Impacting ‘Matlock’s Storytelling

Matlock‘s legal issues are a lot for any show’s cast and crew to handle while still producing high-quality episodes. Del Rio’s firing has already led to an awkward exit for his character. In the Season 2 mid-season premiere, Billy was out sick, and then his job with Jacobson Moore was eliminated because of staff layoffs. This information was relayed in throwaway lines without any emotion or ceremony. This is likely the best the writers could come up with given the circumstances, and it was probably smart not to give too much airtime to Billy’s exit in order not to highlight the actor’s firing. However, it did feel like an unnatural narrative and was a departure from the show’s usually well-thought-out storylines.

We’ve also recently learned that Season 3 of Matlock will only consist of 13 episodes, which is a far cry from Season 1’s 19 and Season 2’s 16. This reduction is disappointing for fans who have only fallen more in love with Bates’ role as the titular character. The show has been a great vehicle for a truly remarkable actress, and has become adept at twisty storylines that dive into a ton of different fascinating issues. However, at this point, the series is risking becoming better known for its behind-the-scenes problems, and this could spell an early and disappointing cancellation for the series. Perhaps CBS will win the lawsuits, but there’s still a stain on Matlock that will live with the show forever.

Seasons 1 and 2 of Matlock are available to stream on Paramount+ in the U.S. Season 3 is set to premiere in January 2027.

Superheroes remain one of the most appealing characters in the movie industry, as evidenced by the box office success of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. A Marvel Studios production, the studio is well-versed in such successful ventures, and a similar feat was the goal when the decision was made to see James Gunn and Peter Safran take the helm ofDC Studios. Gunn and Safran put together a plan, and Chapter One: Gods and Monsters was envisioned with Superman (starring David Corenswet), which premiered in July 2025, kicking things off. Since then, Supergirl (starring Milly Alcock), which premiered in June 2026, albeit to a rather disappointing showing at the box office, as well as Creature Commandos in 2024 and Peacemaker Season 2 in 2025, have all premiered.

Overall, the revamp has been a success with Superman‘s solid start, a standout point of reference, but there is more that can be done with the characters available. And so the baton falls on Lanterns, the newest live-action series from DC Studios, to further help establish the new regime. Since the show debuted on August 16, it has rapidly established itself as a hit for HBO. The Aaron Pierre and Kyle Chandler-led sci-fi crime drama has seen its audience share seemingly grow week-on-week amid the spread of positive word of mouth. With twists already dropping midway through the first season, there is much to enjoy for veterans and those who are newcomers to the Green Lantern mythos as well. So, why does the future of Lanterns Season 2 remain uncertain?

Speaking to Deadline recently, Casey Bloys, the boss of HBO, said fans need to note the difference between “development” and those which are “greenlit shows.” Bloys praised “our track record in DC,” going on to name-drop “Watchmen to Peacemaker to Penguin and now Lanterns,” while highlighting that the shows are “pretty good.” Pressed on whether any other show was in active development, Bloys added that The People v Gorilla Grodd, the upcoming Superman TV spin-off, following The Daily Planet‘s Jimmy Olsen is the only TV series in active development at DC Studios. “No, not right now, obviously you’ve got [The People v] Gorilla Grodd, which I’m very happy about, [they’re] doing something different, and I think it’s a really fun idea. They just started shooting,” Bloys said.

For Lanterns fans, Bloys’ latest comments could be the warning sign no one wants. While the HBO boss was quick to praise DC’s recent television track record, when discussing the studio’s active developments, there was a notable omission: a confirmed second season of Lanterns. That does seem strange, especially given how well the series has been received, but with Bloys’ distinction between discussion and greenlighted projects, things do begin to make sense. DC Studio’s original Chapter One: Gods and Monsters plans have already undergone some alterations, so a successful debut, then, is clearly not an automatic ticket to another season. There is, however, at least one encouraging detail as Chris Mundy has reportedly put together a writers’ room for DC Studios to begin exploring ideas for Lanterns Season 2. That suggests that a renewal could be just around the corner and with Pierre’s Stewart already set to play a role in Man of Tomorrow, Gunn’s Superman sequel, there is much to look forward to.

New episodes of Lanterns premiere Sundays on HBO and HBO Max.

Blake Shelton and wife Gwen Stefani have The Voice to thank for their happy relationship — but not all of their coworkers were convinced it would work at first.

“There were rumors that you two were getting together,” host Carson Daly recalled during The Voice: 30th Season Celebration on Thursday, September 17, while sitting down with OG coaches Shelton, 50, Adam Levine and CeeLo Green, as well as Stefani, 56, who joined the show during season 7.

Daly, 53, remembered “coming out of Adam’s dressing room” and thinking “there’s something happening with Blake and Gwen” — but he wasn’t convinced it was real.

“We were both like, ‘There’s no way. There’s no way this is possible,’” the Today cohost admitted.

Levine, however, remembered the start of Shelton and Stefani’s love story a little differently.

“I was so pumped on it. I was like, ‘This is going down, dude. This is going down,’” he said with a smile.

Daly confessed, “I tried everything in my power to not let this thing happen,” but Levine, 47, was all in from the jump.

“I was like, ‘I know what’s going on,’” Levine remembered, which took Stefani by surprise.

“You knew?” she asked. The Maroon 5 frontman simply replied, “Of course I did.”

Shelton, for his part, backed Daly’s recollection from when the romance started, confirming that his longtime friend “did try to get us to pump the brakes.”

“You both went through a crazy divorce publicly. Then we went to Gwen’s house once,” Daly explained of his reservations. (Shelton was married to Miranda Lambert from 2011 to 2015. Stefani also filed for divorce from Gavin Rossdale in 2015 after 14 years of marriage. Shelton and Stefani started dating three months after her split.)

Daly turned to Shelton and added, “I’ve known you for a long time and I love you. I was like, ‘You guys gotta stop this. This will never work.’ Then cut to years later, you called me in New York and said, ‘Would you marry me?’”

Nearly five years after Us confirmed their relationship, Stefani and Shelton announced their engagement in October 2020. The musicians got married in July 2021 with Daly serving as the officiant.

The wedding was Shelton’s third. He was first married to Kaynette Williams from 2003 to 2006 before moving on with Lambert, 42.

Stefani, for her part, had the support of her three sons — Kingston, 20, Zuma, 18, and Apollo, 12, whom she shares with ex-husband Rossdale, 60 — when she said “I do” to Shelton.

Thank You!

One year after getting hitched, Stefani returned to The Voice as a coach alongside her husband, who was the longest-running coach in the show’s history. Stefani most recently served as a coach during season 26 in 2024.

Shelton, meanwhile, exited the series ahead of season 24 having been a coach from 2011 to 2023. He made an appearance during the season 25 finale in 2024 and again during the season 27 finale last year.

The Voice: 30th Season Celebration is now streaming on Peacock.
