If there’s one thing the latest Garage Beer short film makes clear, it’s this: when things go sideways, Kylie Kelce is the one who saves the day.

In The Last True Cold One — a 16-minute Western-style parody released on YouTube on April 23 — Kylie steps into the spotlight alongside her husband Jason Kelce for the first time on screen.

And while Jason may be the one on the quest, it’s Kylie who ultimately flips the story on its head.

The film, created to promote Garage Beer — co-owned by Jason and his brother, Travis Kelce — leans into humor, chaos and classic Western tropes. But at its core, it delivers a simple payoff: Kylie shows up, takes control and saves her husband from a beer-hoarding villain.

Kylie Kelce Appears With a Full Philly Accent in Short Film

The story begins with Jason out on the trail, resting by a campfire with his horse — notably named after his brother Travis. Things quickly go south when he realizes the horse has somehow drunk the last of his beer.

That sends him on a mission.

Jason Kelce‘s marriage to Kylie Kelce gave Travis Kelce “the best sister a guy could ask for.” Jason and Kylie tied the knot in 2018 and went on to welcome daughters Wyatt, Ellie, Bennett and Finn. The little ones are fond of their “Uncle Trav,” who gushed over his “beautiful” nieces during Kylie’s special episode […]

At a saloon, he learns that the town’s villain, Beau Allen, has banned cold beer altogether. Naturally, that leads to a barroom-style fight and a magical compass that promises to guide Jason to what he wants most.

But instead of leading him to beer, it leads him to Ms. Kylie.

Her introduction is immediate and memorable. She greets Jason by calling him a “d***head” in a thick Philadelphia accent — setting the tone for everything that follows.

Then she delivers the real twist: the villain hasn’t eliminated cold beer … he’s been hoarding it. Jason’s reaction says it all. He tips his hat, trying to cool himself off, and simply says, “What a woman.”

Kylie Kelce Saves the Day in ‘The Last True Cold One’

Later on in the film, Jason shoots Allen in a gunfight. As he starts to walk away, Allen pulls a tiny gun out of his shoe holster and goes to pull the trigger — but not before Ms. Kylie saves the day from a nearby window.

At a critical moment, she fires the shot that turns the tide, helping Jason defeat the villain and reclaim the cold beer supply. It’s the kind of classic Western rescue — just with a modern twist where the hero isn’t the one doing the saving.

The ending keeps the tone playful. Jason appears ready to kiss Ms. Kylie … then immediately shoves her aside to grab a Garage Beer instead. Priorities.

This Isn’t Garage Beer’s 1st Short Film

While Jason drives the plot, the film is Kylie’s breakout moment.

The Last True Cold One marks her acting debut, and it’s a noticeable shift from the brand’s previous installments — The Final Brewmite (August 2025) and Thermal Buzz (November 2025) — where she didn’t appear.

This time, she’s central to the story.

“With [Jason] Kelce we’ve always used these films as a way to do something bigger than a traditional ad,” Chief Creative Officer Corey Smale said in a press release. “But this is the first time we’re tying one directly to a new product.”

That product is Garage Beer’s latest addition: bottles.

News broke in November 2024 that Kylie was joining Jason and his brother, Travis Kelce, in the podcast […]

The brand, originally launched in 2018 by Braxton Brewing Company, was acquired and relaunched by entrepreneur Andy Sauer in 2023. It saw a major boost in visibility after Jason and Travis joined as investors in June 2024, per Forbes.

“Garage Beer in bottles is the natural next step for us,” Sauer said in the press release. “We’ve been looking forward to bringing these to market, and the timing couldn’t be better with summer right around the corner.”

The Western theme? That was just the fun way to get there.

Kylie Kelce Steals the Spotlight and Fans Can’t Get Enough

Travis, who appeared in earlier brand content, doesn’t show up in this installment. This one belongs to Kylie. And she makes the most of it.

“Ky coming in HOT with the Philly accent 😂 this was hilarious!” one fan wrote in the YouTube comments.

Thank You!

“The roller coaster of emotions this video took me on was fun. Jason, you are big screen ready. Kylie, going hard on the accent was brilliant. How dare you have is cheering for a ‘Cowboy,’” another fan wrote.

Between the sharp one-liners, the confidence and the clutch moment in the final showdown, she’s not just part of the story — she’s the reason it works.

Because in a film about chasing the last cold beer in town, it turns out the real hero isn’t the guy on the quest. It’s the one who finishes it.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are reportedly locked in a royal rumble, as sources say the two public figures are feuding over how to handle their son, Prince Archie, and his upcoming birthday.

The latest news comes days after Prince Harry made headlines after pushing back on a reporter who seemed to suggest he was no longer a “working royal.” Amid that, the “Spare” author also sparked conversation after making critical comments about political leaders.

According to Sky News, Prince Harry and his wife, Markle, are in a reported showdown over their son’s upcoming birthday. Prince Archie, born May 6, 2019, will celebrate his seventh birthday in the coming days.

To celebrate the special occasion, a source said Markle is wanting to stick to tradition and release a formal photo of him. Prince Harry, meanwhile, is said to be completely against the suggestion, hoping to shield his children from the spotlight for as long as possible.

“This isn’t the first time this conflict has come up – and there are times it’s been Meghan holding Harry back from showing off pictures of their kids,” the source said. “But Meghan thinks it’s the perfect time to release a formal set of pictures of Archie for his birthday – especially now her Archie candle’s been released.”

Prince Harry Reportedly Worried His Children Could Lose Their Royal Titles

The couple’s reported disagreement comes days after Prince Archie’s cousin, Prince Louis, turned eight last week.

His parents, Prince William and Princess Catherine, shared a snap of the brown-haired royal smiling in front of a body of water.

“Happy birthday, Louis! 8 today,” the photo read.

According to the insider, Prince Harry has more on his mind than Prince Archie’s birthday celebrations. The 41-year-old is said to be worried “about Archie and Lilibet losing their titles” after Markle launched a signature candle line inspired by her offspring.

The source said “pushing the lines between being royalty and [monetizing] it” could cause issues with the monarchy.

Prince Harry Takes Firm Stance When Asked About His Status As A Royal Family Member

The latest report comes shortly after Prince Harry clapped back at a reporter who asked the British Army veteran whether he found it bothersome some people saw him as “not a working royal.”

“No. I will always be part of the royal family,” the Duke of Sussex said firmly, according to The Blast. “I am here working doing the things that I was born to do.”

Prince Harry, who, alongside his wife, took a step back from their royal duties in 2020, went on to say that being born into the Royal Family means he’d always find a way to serve others.

Harry Bumps Heads With President Donald J. Trump

Amid this, Prince Harry garnered a bit of criticism after making an unexpected appeared at the Kyiv Security forum, according to PEOPLE, where he appeared to call for President Donald J. Trump to interact in Russia’s ongoing attacks against Ukraine.

“The United States has a singular role in this story,” the prince said. “Not only because of its power, but because when Ukraine gave up nuclear weapons, America was part of the assurance that Ukraine’s sovereignty and borders would be respected.”

Prince Harry said that the attacks were a chance for “American leadership” to act. “A moment for America to show that it can honor its international treaty obligations, not out of charity, but out of its own enduring role in global security and strategic stability,” he said.

Trump, meanwhile, appeared unfazed by the Duke’s comments, dismissing them completely while speaking with the media. According to Trump, Prince Harry doesn’t speak for the UK. “That’s for sure,” he said.

The POTUS went on to say that in this current moment, he likely has more authority than the royal does himself. “I think I’m speaking for the U.K. more than Prince Harry. But I appreciate his advice,” he said.

Harry And Markle Face Backlash Over Beach Incident

Sarah Pidgeon’s time playing Carolyn Bessette Kennedy will forever be immortalized on our TV screens — and, apparently, in her purse. The actress admitted that she stole a few props from the set of Love Story, including one specific lip product from the makeup department.

During a recent Vogue Beauty Secrets video, Pigeon shared that she “took” the Rom&nd Juicy Lasting Tint, and it’s become a permanent staple in her purse. This tint was a key element to CBK’s effortless makeup look, leaving behind the faintest flush of just-kissed color with a natural-looking gloss.

Lucy Liu just confirmed something we’ve known for years: when it comes to red carpets, she knows how to command the spotlight. The actress did just that at the New York premiere of The Devil Wears Prada 2, walking the red carpet in a completely see-through Georges Hobeika dress. Her outfit choice was no doubt […]

Pidgeon uses this long-lasting tint exactly like her makeup artist did on set. She gently dabs a bit “in the middle” of her lips and lets it set before swiping on a lip gloss over top. The hybrid gloss-tint technically doesn’t require an additional gloss because it maintains a juicy finish for hours. That said, Pidgeon prefers a little extra oomph.

If you haven’t heard of Rom&nd before, you’re not alone. While the brand is incredibly popular in Korea, it’s remained under the radar in the States, except in professional makeup artist circles. Savvy Amazon shoppers have also fallen in love with the brand — and especially the Juicy Lasting Tint.

Over 4,000 customers have given this lippie their five-star seal of approval, with some saying it’s “perfect” and deserves “holy grail status.”

“Believe the hype on this one, friends. This Juicy Lasting Tint checks all the boxes for me,” one reviewer wrote. “Great color — looks exactly like the component indicates it will. Easy to apply — goes on like a dream. And, my personal favorite, it does not clump or dry out or any of the lippie no-nos of regretful purchases past. This one is so good, I’m already looking at getting another. And another. . . and another. . .”

If a celebrity steals a product from the makeup trailer, we know it must be good. That said, the reviews for the Rom&nd Juicy Lasting Tint solidified the fact that this is a must-have in everyone’s purses. Don’t be surprised if you end up going back to purchase multiple colors.

Demi Moore definitely stunned at the 2026 Oscars, walking the red carpet in an elaborate, feathered gown from Gucci.

Former Disney Channel star Daniel Benson is opening up about the difficult circumstances that led him to make a life-changing and controversial career move. Benson, best known for his role on “Wizards of Waverly Place,” shared that he was facing intense financial pressure before launching his OnlyFans account in 2022.

The 38-year-old said he had lost his marketing job during the COVID-19 pandemic, while also dealing with the fallout of being dropped by his agent after years of not booking acting work. At the same time, his dog, Lynn, was battling serious health issues, leaving Benson with mounting veterinary bills.

Speaking on Investigation Discovery’s “Hollywood Demons,” Benson detailed the heartbreaking choices he had to make to care for his pet. “He was barely able to walk, so the only relief was these expensive shots that he would get directly in his back hips,” he said, per PEOPLE.

“Every time I had to kind of make a choice, like what do I spend my money on? Do I keep putting these on credit cards and keep going into debt?” he recalled. “I would buy these Lean Cuisine meals because they were like $3 and I was spending so little money on food to just try to be able to afford these shots for Lynn, so that I didn’t have to watch him struggle to get out of bed.”

Why He Turned To Adult Content

Benson admitted that the financial strain ultimately pushed him to make a decision he never expected. “At the end of the day, I have to be able to provide so he does not have to suffer, and I was going to do whatever it takes to not have to make him suffer, and that’s why making the decision to do p-rn was so easy at a certain point,” he said. “It was like, ‘Okay, if this gives me the opportunity to provide that to him, who gives a sh-t what people think?’”

Since joining the platform, Benson says he has found significant financial success, even describing himself as ‘one of the most successful male OnlyFans creators.’ The content creator reportedly earned $1 million in his first year on the platform, which is owned by Leonid Radvinsky.

Daniel Benson Says Past Trauma Also Played A Role

Benson also shared that his decision was also influenced by a deeply personal experience involving leaked private photos. “There’s a part of me that felt so stupid,” he said. “[I] worked so hard to just erase this, but every time you take down one, it’s like five other sites pop up.”

He added, “I knew in the back of my mind that that was officially closing the door on any opportunity I had to work with Disney ever again.”

Feeling ‘Broken’ After ‘Wizards’ Revival, But Standing By His Choice

Benson said part of his decision also came from accepting that his Disney days were behind him. “I was like, ‘It’s been 14 years. They’re not bringing back ‘Wizards,’ you know?’ I let go of the hope that they’d ever bring it back.” However, when some of his former castmates reunited for “Wizards Beyond Waverly Place” in 2024, the actor admitted it hit him hard to be left out, revealing he felt “broken” by the omission.

In response to backlash from fans of “Wizards of Waverly Place” who criticized his career pivot, Benson said he briefly attempted to remove some of his adult content. But in the end, he chose to stand firm, restoring his posts and embracing his success without shame.

‘Wizards Beyond Waverly Place’ Final Season Adds Fan Favorites As ‘Hollywood Demons’ Spotlights Child Star Stories

In addition to Selena Gomez and David Henrie, the upcoming four-episode third and final season of “Wizards Beyond Waverly Place” will also include appearances from Jennifer Stone, Gregg Sulkin, Maria Canals-Barrera, Alkaio Thiele, Max Matenko, Taylor Cora, David DeLuise, Janice LeAnn Brown, and Mimi Gianopulos.

Meanwhile, “Child Stars Gone Wild” premiered on Monday, April 27, at 9:00 p.m. ET on ID. New episodes of “Hollywood Demons” air weekly and are available to stream on HBO Max.

Young and the Restless reveals that Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) blows up the abandoned garage where he trapped Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) and Noah Newman. But Matt waited to do it till Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) and Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) also showed up.

So, things look really dire by the end of Tuesday’s episode. But come on, we know the Newmans aren’t dead. However, I have a feeling Matt’s going to be pushing up daisies before May sweeps is over.

And his not so loving wife Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun) may be the one to kill him. So, we’re going to talk about why and how Sienna might sacrifice herself to make sure Matt dies and his reign of terror is over.

The Newmans Will Survive on Young and the Restless

So, by the end of Tuesday’s episode, things look really dire for the Newmans after Matt makes the building go boom. But come on, we’ve seen Adam survive a bigger explosion. Remember when that cabin went up? You remember Chloe Mitchell (Elizabeth Hendrickson) chained him up, blew him sky high. He was fine a couple of years later.

So, I have no doubt all the Newmans survive. And that means Matt is not done with them. So Sienna may step up to save the Newmans because they saved her. You know, she had no idea that she was married to a monster. So, she may try and stop Matt once and for all. And Sienna may think it is her responsibility.

Sienna Tries to Bargain with Matt on Y&R

So, this week, after Matt leaves the abandoned garage, somehow Sienna caught up to Matt and she hops in his car. Then Sienna is trying to play let’s make a deal with her sociopathic husband and she offers Matt a trade. If he lets the Newmans go, Sienna will forgive him and get back together with him.

But Matt says Sienna gave up on them and she was cheating with Noah. All true. But Sienna isn’t going to stop pushing and she reminds Matt of how romantic they used to be, what a great team they were. And he tells Sienna, “Sounds good, but he doesn’t think she is over Noah.”

But then Sienna tells more lies and says Matt’s the person who really gets her and Sienna is pleading with him to just let Sharon and Noah and Adam and Nick go, but he doesn’t. And instead Matt pushes a button and he blows the garage sky-high. It’s a very nice May sweeps explosion. Reminds me of the Chuck Pratt days. Remember the catastrophes we used to have?

The Newmans Make It Back to Genoa City on Young and the Restless

So, things look pretty bleak, but we already know from the promo and spoilers they survive. Adam is back with Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan) at the Vegas hotel room this week. Adam is looking a little worse for wear, but I’m guessing they escaped out the back or side door before everything went boom. So, later this week, Adam confronts Nick about his drug use, and by Friday, Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) is pressuring Nick to confess about the addiction issues.

That same day on Friday, Young and the Restless spoilers have Sharon questioning Sienna’s loyalty. So, that sounds like all the Newmans make it back to Genoa City in one piece. And it also sounds like Sienna might be back in town as well. And with Sharon doubting Sienna, that sounds like she’s made some sort of devil’s bargain with Matt after he found out that he didn’t actually kill his Newman targets. But if Sienna cuts a deal with Matt, I don’t think it’s legit. I’m guessing it’s because Sienna has a trick up her sleeve and a plan to take down Matt.

I do suspect Sienna is going to sacrifice herself to save Noah. And that means she would probably be the one to take out Matt. And it seems increasingly likely also because Y&R seems to be setting the stage for a Noah and Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) reunion. So, if Sienna sacrifices her life to take Matt’s so that Noah won’t live in terror for the rest of his life, let’s talk about how she might do it.

How Sienna Might Take Out Matt on Young and the Restless

First of all, Sienna might take a page directly from Matt’s book. She may help him rig some explosives like he did at the garage, and Sienna may promise to lure the Newmans into Matt’s new trap to prove herself. But instead, Sienna may trigger the blast to blow up her and Matt.

Sienna may be able to convince Matt that she wants to try again, you know, because the Newmans won’t accept her, primarily because of him. Sienna may promise all sorts of stuff to lure Matt into trusting her long enough for her to explode him like he tried to explode Noah and his family.

Sienna Takes a Bullet on Y&R?

Another option is Matt might go gunning for the Newmans with actual guns. He may figure the best way to make sure Noah, Sharon, Nick, and Adam die is to look them in the eye and put bullets in them. But if Matt tries that, I could see Sienna jumping in front of Noah to protect him.

And Sienna takes a bullet instead and then wrestles Matt for the gun and shoots him dead. Maybe even shoots him a few times because the guy’s hard to kill. And Sienna will probably want to make sure that he’s really dead and then, you know, she dies, too.

Young and the Restless: Sienna & Matt Die Thelma & Louise Style

Another option, car crash that kills both Sienna and Matt. She’s in his car as of Tuesday’s episode. So Sienna could wind up back in Matt’s vehicle later. Sienna may agree to take off with Matt, but then grabs the wheel and runs him off the road. Kind of like when Matt ran Noah off the road in LA. Another page from his playbook. So, you know, Sienna could yank the wheel and drive them off a bridge or off a cliff Thelma and Louise style. You know, anything to stop Matt for good.

Another twisted option is Sienna might make a suicide pact with Matt. You know, if he’s figured out he’s going to be arrested and can’t escape it, Sienna might offer him a deal to end it together because Matt’s not going to want to spend life in prison. And I’m sure that Sienna doesn’t trust the system because they arrested and released Matt once already when he was doing terrible things.

So, Sienna may suggest they go the romantic and very twisted Bonnie and Clyde route and die together. Could be death by cop like the gangster couple or some other twisted method for Matt and Sienna to die together. You know, he might think it’s romantic and would be happy that Noah won’t wind up with her.

Young and the Restless: Karma Comes for Matt

Now, my personal favorite option is this one. Sienna may drug Matt with his own bad fentanyl. Talk about a karmic slap in the face. Sienna may plan to overdose him like Matt did to Nick. And Sienna may think she can overdose Matt, kill him, and then walk away unscathed.

But if Matt realizes what she’s done and that he’s overdosing, I could see him choking Sienna to death, killing her with his last bit of strength in his body. So, it would be a bizarre mutual murder. That would be really cool for May sweeps.

Sienna Would Go Out A Hero on Young and the Restless

And if she does sacrifice herself, of course, Noah will be devastated, but Sienna would go out a hero, having saved Noah and his whole family, and you know, getting rid of Matt forever so they could all have peace of mind. I do expect closure because they’ve been killing off villains from Sharon’s past like Cameron Kirsten (Linden Ashby) and Ian Ward (Ray Wise), whom the Newmans think is dead, but you know, we know is not.

And as I said before, it definitely looks like Y&R is setting things up for Noah and Audra to reunite. It doesn’t seem like Sienna is going to be sticking around forever anyway. There’s just too many problematic things with her relationship with Noah. But I suspect Sienna might go out a hero and take out Matt Clark and then Audra will be there to mend Noah’s broken heart. So, we’ll see what happens.

Bill Belichick’s relationship with Jordon Hudson is making headlines again after his appearance at her cheer competition over the weekend.

The couple’s romance has drawn controversy since Belichick became head coach of the University of North Carolina, with Hudson further fueling attention through her public antics.

Following Bill Belichick’s appearance at the event, Jordon Hudson took to Instagram to share a selfie of them with a sweet caption, which has since sparked trolling from critics of their relationship.

Over the weekend, Bill Belichick showed up once again to support his girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, at her cheer competition.

The coach, who had previously attended Hudson’s Cheer Extreme All Stars event in November 2025, watched as she competed in the International Open Coed Non-Tumbling division at the Cheerleading Worlds in Florida.

And it wasn’t for nothing, as her team, Code Black, came out on top at the event after intense competition from other contestants.

A happy Hudson, who could barely contain her excitement, then took to Instagram to share a rare image of her and her boyfriend.

In the picture, Belichick kept things casual in a black top and face cap, while she was still dressed in her cheer uniform.

“Roses [Up] for Bill the WAG,” Hudson captioned the selfie alongside a ring emoji, three roses, and the OK emoji.

She also added in the background an audio snippet of Taylor Swift’s “End Game.”

Critics Troll The Legendary Coach And His Girlfriend Over The Selfie

The comment section of the post was filled with netizens taking swipes at the couple over their age gap relationship, with some claiming that the images of Belichick were “humiliating.”

“If cringe had an image, it would be this. We will never see the Bill we all miss and love again,” one individual slammed Belichick.

“I’m so embarrassed for Bill. If he was competent enough to know what’s going on, he’d be humiliated,” a second user said about the veteran coach.

“The daddy issues with this one are beyond comprehension… All the therapy in the world can’t crack it,” a third netizen blasted Hudson.

“Bill went from the greatest coach of all time to spending his weekends watching people who miss high school doing geriatric cheerleading competitions,” read another swipe at Belichick.

“Genuinely so bizarre dating a grandpa,” one more person remarked.

Jordon Hudson Was Painted In A Positive Light By Her Former Teammates And Acquaintances

Since the public became fully aware of Belichick’s relationship with Hudson, many have branded her a gold digger and an opportunist who could ruin the coach’s legacy.

However, those claims have been countered by Hudson’s friends, who spoke with US Weekly last year.

Former teammate Emily Rodriguez described her as a supportive and thoughtful teammate, recalling how Hudson offered emotional support after her mother’s passing and helped others with practical needs like travel costs and accommodation.

She also noted Hudson’s determination, calling her focused and headstrong.

Another ex-teammate, Crista Paulauskas, acknowledged that Hudson’s high level of dedication could make her seem intimidating, but emphasized that she was always willing to help others.

Lizzy Pandiscio echoed this, saying Hudson was consistently kind despite her competitiveness.

Meanwhile, salon owner Dougie Freeman praised Hudson’s strong work ethic, artistic talent, and gentle nature, adding that her presence and beauty were an asset to his business.

Bill Belichick’s Girlfriend Doesn’t Plan To Stop Being Herself

In the second quarter of last year, Belichick and Hudson’s relationship came under intense scrutiny following a disastrous interview on CBS to promote the coach’s book.

Reports at the time criticized Hudson for inserting herself into the interview and trying to control the narrative, despite the questions being directed at Belichick.

While Belichick later clarified that his girlfriend only stepped in because the organizers had steered the questions off course, Hudson chose to respond defiantly, an approach she has continued to display despite the negative spotlight on them.

“I will not be cyber-bullied into submission. I will continue to stand for love, authenticity, and permissibility of nonconformity,” the cheerleader wrote on Instagram, per US Weekly.

She added at the time, “They can burn me at the stake, but they cannot burn out my light!”

Did The Cheerleader Cost Bill Belichick A 2026 Hall Of Fame Nod?

Early this year, the football world was left in shock after Belichick was omitted from the 2026 Pro Football Hall of Fame class due to his legendary status as a coach.

The decision to snub the former Patriots coach left many scratching their heads on the why, and also led to rumors that his personal life may have come into play for voters.

At the time, sources told journalist Rob Shuter’s #ShuterScoop that Belichick and Hudson’s age-gap romance and the viral moments they have had since the cheerleader interrupted his CBS interview turned off voters.

“This wasn’t whispered — it was discussed,” an insider said of the couple. “People kept asking, ‘Do we really want this to be part of his legacy right now?’ The word ‘creepy’ came up more than once.”

Another source noted, “The timing killed him,” adding that “if this had surfaced years after his induction, no one would care. But voters vote on legacy, not just stats.”

Ellen DeGeneres is reportedly turning to hypnotherapy as she navigates a new phase in her career and personal life with Portia de Rossi.

While some insiders question the approach, the famous comedian is said to view it as a way to restore balance for her.

The update comes as Ellen DeGeneres prepares a return to the “Finding Nemo” franchise and continues adjusting to life after stepping away from her long-running talk show.

Ellen DeGeneres Embraces Hypnotherapy As She Navigates New Career Phase

According to a source, the former talk show host and her wife have embraced hypnosis as a wellness tool they both trust.

DeGeneres has experimented with it in the past, famously undergoing a session on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” back in 2006 in an effort to quit smoking, and it appears she’s continued to see value in it.

Still, some observers are skeptical about the effectiveness of such treatments, especially given their cost.

“People can’t help but wonder if [Ellen] and Portia are being taken for a ride with this stuff,” one source told a news outlet. “It’s not like you can hypnotize yourself. You have to hire a specialist to come to your home and do this to you, and that isn’t cheap.”

The Comedian Seeks Hypnotherapy As She Feels ‘Pretty Beat Up In Life’ Amid Career Setbacks

Financially, DeGeneres and her wife are more than equipped to maintain the practice of hypnotherapy, with estimates placing their combined wealth in the hundreds of millions.

Beyond hypnotherapy, they’re also known for investing heavily in home renovation projects, another passion that comes with a hefty price tag.

According to one insider, DeGeneres has been feeling down and sees hypnosis as a way to regain balance and energy.

“Truth is, she’s feeling pretty beat up in life right now and needs a boost, which she believes hypnosis is providing,” an insider told the National Enquirer. “But in this situation, her open-mindedness about dubious techniques like hypnosis could blow up in her face.”

“She’s vulnerable right now, and that creates an opportunity for people to take advantage of her and Portia, unfortunately!” the source added.

Ellen DeGeneres Set For Return To Finding Nemo Universe As Dory Reboot Gains Attention

Despite these concerns, DeGeneres remains active professionally. She is set to reprise her beloved role as Dory in a new short film from Pixar set in the world of “Finding Nemo.”

While plot details and release plans are still under wraps, the project is already generating interest.

DeGeneres first brought the forgetful blue tang to life in “Finding Nemo,” which won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.

She later reprised the role in “Finding Dory,” a massive box office success that earned over $1 billion globally.

Beyond the films, she has continued voicing Dory across various Disney projects, including theme park attractions and short-form content.

DeGeneres’s latest project marks her first acting role since the 2021 mini-series “Pixar Popcorn,” where she once again voiced Dory. That same year, she also made an appearance as herself in Kevin Hart’s “True Story.”

Since wrapping “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” in 2022, DeGeneres has been open about stepping away from the spotlight, particularly after controversy surrounding allegations of a toxic workplace. She addressed the situation directly in her 2024 Netflix special, “Ellen DeGeneres: For Your Approval.”

In the set, she used humor to reflect on her time away from Hollywood, joking about taking up gardening and raising chickens before quipping that she had essentially been “kicked out of show business.” She also poked fun at the backlash she received, referencing headlines that questioned her public “be kind” persona.

“The Be Kind Girl wasn’t kind.’ That was the headline,” she said, per E! News. “Here’s the problem: I’m a comedian who got a talk show, and I ended the show every day by saying, ‘Be kind to one another.’ Had I ended my show by saying, ‘Go f-ck yourselves,’ people would have been pleasantly surprised to find out I’m kind.”

Ellen DeGeneres Hints At Final On-Screen Chapter, Splits Time Between U.K. And U.S. After Political Move

Before releasing her 2024 comedy special, “Ellen DeGeneres: For Your Approval,” DeGeneres suggested it could be her final on-screen appearance.

During a July 2024 show in California, she told fans they likely wouldn’t see her again after the special. That same year, she relocated to the U.K. with her wife, Portia de Rossi.

In July 2025, DeGeneres revealed that their move was influenced by Donald Trump’s election to a second term, recalling how they decided to stay in the U.K. after hearing the news.

“We got here the day before the election and woke up to lots of texts from our friends with crying emojis, and I was like, ‘He got in.’ And we’re like, ‘We’re staying here,’” she said.

Her return to the “Finding Nemo” universe comes months after she briefly came back to the U.S. In February, it was reported that she and de Rossi purchased a new home in California following their earlier move abroad.

However, according to People Magazine, sources say the couple doesn’t plan to fully resettle, instead dividing their time between the U.K. and Montecito.

Blake Lively’s beverage brand Betty Buzz is said to have quietly shut down in 2025, without a public announcement from the actress. The company is known for its premium sparkling mixers made with real juice and no artificial additives.

According to reports, Betty Buzz reportedly closed due to profitability issues, not her ongoing feud with Justin Baldoni.

Newly surfaced reports claim Lively’s Betty Buzz had already run into serious trouble before its quiet shutdown in 2025.

The brand, a sister line to Betty Booze, initially showed strong momentum and even appeared poised to dominate the premium mixer space. Court documents shared in a Reddit thread alleged that the company had sold more than five million bottles in its first year. It also landed high-profile partnerships with British Airways and restaurant chain Yard House.

However, those same filings reveal internal concerns began surfacing much earlier. During a 2024 meeting, management reportedly questioned the brand’s long-term profitability and sustainability, even floating the possibility of shutting it down altogether.

By 2025, that scenario had become reality. The documents make clear the decision was driven by business fundamentals, not any claims of “online manipulation” tied to outside controversies.

Blake Lively Still Backs Betty Buzz Despite Shutdown

Despite reports that Betty Buzz has been shut down, Lively has not publicly distanced herself from the brand.

The actress launched the non-alcoholic mixer line in 2021, marketing it as a low-calorie option made with clean ingredients. She remained closely tied to its promotion over the years, plugging it in ad campaigns and interviews. It was the same case during the press run for “It Ends with Us,” the film she starred in alongside Baldoni, amid their ongoing legal dispute.

Even now, there are still visible signs of that association. Lively’s Instagram bio continues to feature Betty Buzz alongside her other ventures, Betty Booze and Blake Brown Beauty. The brand’s social media page also remains active, although links to purchase the drinks appear to no longer work, suggesting operations have indeed come to a halt.

Fans Question Betty Buzz Name After Shutdown News

The reported shutdown of Lively’s Betty Buzz has set off a wave of reactions online, particularly after court documents began circulating on Reddit.

Some critics argued Lively should update her Instagram bio instead of continuing to list the now-defunct company among her ventures. Others said they were surprised by the brand’s collapse, pointing to its name as a potential misstep.

“Why would you name a non-alcoholic drink/mixer ‘Betty Buzz?’ So you will piss off people who buy it thinking it has booze, and people looking for something without booze won’t even buy it,” one user wrote.

Pricing also became a recurring complaint, with several commenters claiming the mixers were too expensive to sustain repeat purchases.

Blake Lively Claims $300M Loss In Baldoni Feud

Despite court reports linking the shutdown of the company to profitability issues, Lively has seemed to present a front that the failure of the business was due to her feud with Baldoni. She claimed in court documents that the alleged smear campaign by her co-star cost her nearly $300 million in lost profits and opportunities, per Page Six.

The court filings estimate direct reputational damage between $36.5 million and $40.5 million, with an additional $24.3 million linked to public statements made during the feud. Meanwhile, projected lost income ranges from $34.3 million to $87.8 million due to missed film and TV roles.

Lively also specified that her businesses, including Betty Booze and Blake Brown, reportedly lost between $39.6 million and $143.5 million.

Blake Lively, Justin Baldoni Set For May Court Battle

Lively and Baldoni are set to face off in court in May as their legal dispute continues to escalate.

The feud dates back to December 2024, when Lively first filed a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department against the film director. She later followed up with a lawsuit, bringing 13 claims, including defamation and harassment.

Earlier this year, a court-ordered settlement meeting failed to produce an agreement. However, a judge dismissed ten of Lively’s 13 claims in April, leaving only breach of contract, retaliation, and aiding and abetting retaliation to proceed.

With the trial now set for May, both Lively and Baldoni are expected to testify as the high-profile row plays out in court.

Movies are rarely filmed in chronological order, and television shows, especially during their first season, aren’t produced in the order they end up airing. Babylon 5 was carefully plotted from the very beginning by creator J. Michael Straczynski, but the fourth episode, “Infection,” was the first to be filmed.

Knowing that this was the first time Michael O’Hare was playing Jeffrey Sinclair adds more weight and meaning to his answer to a critical question. It’s the same question NASA administrators and space entrepreneurs like Elon Musk are currently grappling with. Is it worth the effort for humanity to remain in space when we have problems of our own back home? 

Babylon 5 Addressed The Hard Questions About Humanity

Sinclair’s sit-down with the Interstellar News Network (ISN) reporter Mary Cramer comes at the end of the episode. Without missing a beat, Sinclair responds to the reporter’s question with a quote that helped to sum up the importance of Babylon 5, the station, and the series: 

“No. We have to stay here. And there’s a simple reason why. Ask ten different scientists about the environment, population control, genetics, and you’ll get ten different answers, but there’s one thing every scientist on the planet agrees on. Whether it happens in a hundred years or a thousand years or a million years, eventually our Sun will grow cold and go out. When that happens, it won’t just take us. It’ll take Marilyn Monroe, and Lao-Tzu, and Einstein, and Morobuto, and Buddy Holly, and Aristophanes, and – all of this – all of this – was for nothing. Unless we go to the stars. “

It’s a powerful statement. Humanity’s destiny among the stars is a common sentiment in science fiction, but it’s rarely stated so plainly and openly that yes, one day Earth will cease to be. Prior to making the statement, Sinclair was confronted by Chief of Security Garibaldi (Jerry Doyle) over yet another incident where the station commander put his life directly in danger. According to the concerned Chief, shutting down a biological weapon was the third time, this year alone, that Sinclair put himself in harm’s way on purpose. 

Instead of talking about how Sinclair is a commander who belongs on the front lines, or that’s what heroes are supposed to do, Garibaldi cuts right to the heart of the issue. Sinclair is still reeling from what he did during the war with the Minbari, and Garibaldi, who knows his old comrade, grills him about soldiers coming back from the war without a purpose, without anything to live for. All of a sudden, with that one observation, Sinclair’s actions from previous episodes are seen in a new light. From confronting the crime boss to find a Centauri dancer, to earlier in “Infected,” when he’s battling a bio-organic weapon in the pursuit of racial purity, was he putting himself in danger because he wanted to die in service to his position? 

What Sets Babylon 5 Apart From Other Sci-Fi Series

As the very first Babylon 5 episode to be filmed, Michael O’Hare had to dig deep into what makes Sinclair tick from the beginning, before he filmed those other action scenes, even before he solved the assassination attempt on Ambassador Kosh. It was unintentional. “Infection” came first because it was the simplest of the initial season to film, but it helped ground the cast and give everyone a chance to dig into their characters. Even Ivanova (Claudia Christian) gets a great moment when she stops the reporter from pursuing Sinclair for an interview with the warning, “You’re too young to experience that much pain.” 

The main plot of “Infection,” about an alien artifact that turns out to be a bio-weapon designed to kill all impure Ikarrans, is standard “case of the week” fare bolstered by the inclusion of David McCallum (Ducky from NCIS and thousands of other roles) as a former teacher to the station’s Medical Officer, Dr. Franklin (Richard Briggs). It’s not a bad episode, but it’s Sinclair coming out of his shell to express his honest opinion, thanks to the support of Garibaldi, that is the true highlight of the episode. It’s also an early look at how Babylon 5 would go on to set itself apart from other sci-fi of the 90s by not side-stepping the hard questions and respecting the viewer’s intelligence.
