Raven-Symoné and her wife, Miranda Maday, had the opportunity to channel their inner models and DID. Miranda shared the video of them “maxxing” and “mogging” just a few days ago. Since then, fans have flooded the couple’s comment section with a lil’ bit of everything, from compliments to jokes.

Raven-Symoné & Her Wife Show Off Their Modeling Skills

As mentioned, Miranda Maday hit upload on the video with Raven on July 23. Sharing it on Instagram, Maday captioned the post, “We maxxing, we mogging…cool words Gen Z.” It’s unclear when the video was filmed. In it, Rae is rocking a blonde buzzcut hairstyle, but she’s been growing out her starter locs for the last few months. In the clip, Rae and Miranda are wearing ‘fits matching each other’s fly — Rae in a black-and-white suit and her wife in a white dress with black belt straps. The video shows them briefly changing their poses, including when Miranda gently removed Rae’s hand from resting on her neck.

What’s Raven-Symoné Been Up To? 

Recently, Raven-Symoné went viral after revealing that another ‘Cheetah Girls’ movie is under production. She will be returning to her role as Galleria, and so, while Adrienne Bailon-Houghton will be Chanel. Additionally, Sabrina Bryan will also make an appearance in ‘The Cheetah Girls: Next Gen’ film. For now, it doesn’t appear that Kiely Williams will be joining her old crew for the role of Aqua. Following news of the reboot film, Williams’ sister hopped online with harsh words for Raven-Symoné and Adrienne. Both women have not responded to the shade. Instead, they gave fans a taste of their vibe on set.

Jon Bon Jovi had a triumphant return to Madison Square Garden and surprised fans with a special guest.

According to videos shared via social media from the Sunday, July 26, concert in New York City, Bon Jovi, 64, was joined by Bruce Springsteen for two duets.

“Ladies and gentlemen, the one and only Bruce Springsteen,” Bon Jovi told the crowd as Springsteen, 76, walked on stage. “The king of the great state of New Jersey. Who says you can’t go home?”

Bon Jovi and Springsteen performed two songs together: the rock band’s song “Who Says You Can’t Go Home” as well as The Boss’ “The Promised Land.”

Jon Bon Jovi‘s return to the stage has been anything but smooth. The rock icon spent the past several years navigating a serious vocal cord injury, a career-threatening surgery and, most recently, a sinus infection that forced him to cut a Madison Square Garden concert short in July 2026. Through it all, the “Livin’ on […]

Not only are Springsteen and Bon Jovi both proud to call New Jersey their home state, but the pair have become close friends over the years. Bon Jovi has spoken highly of Springsteen’s music and cited his work in the E Street Band as his inspiration during the early days of his career.

This show was Bon Jovi’s final performance during his MSG residency. The concert also came three days after Bon Jovi had to abruptly end his Thursday, July 23, show after 90 minutes. After performing his hit “Livin’ on a Prayer,” Bon Jovi shared with the audience he was unable to continue.

“Don’t throw away your ticket stubs. I’m going to figure something out,” he told the crowd. “Just hang onto it. I’m going to figure out how to reschedule.”

Before exiting the stage, Bon Jovi added, “I’m gonna have to cool it for a night. I feel great. I’ll see you again soon. Bye-bye.”

Bon Jovi’s spokesperson told Us later on Thursday that the singer had been suffering from a sinus infection.

“The Bon Jovi concert at Madison Square Garden ended after 90 mins tonight,” the statement read. “Jon Bon Jovi spoke from stage and told fans he has been battling a sinus infection, which led to the show’s early ending. As part of the Bon Jovi residency at Madison Square Garden, Jon has said numerous times that it has been a joy to return to live shows for the band. Updated information will be available shortly.”

“The Boss” was almost forced into retirement. Bruce Springsteen returned to the stage earlier this month to perform at Phoenix, AZ’s Footprint Center after taking six months off to deal with his peptic ulcer disease. Springsteen, 74, told SiriusXM’s E Street Radio host Jim Rotolo that the comeback almost didn’t happen as the disease robbed […]

While Bon Jovi’s MSG residency has come to the end, the rock star has more performances up his sleeve. Next month, Bon Jovi’s Forever Tour will head to Edinburgh.

Four years ago, Bon Jovi underwent surgery to fix an atrophying vocal cord. While he recovered from the procedure, the Grammy winner was unsure if he would be able to perform live again.

“Although I’m well on the road to recovery and was able to take my time and do a song a day when I made the record, my need, want, desire is to be able to do two-and-a-half hours a night, four nights a week, for months on end,” he said in a March 2024 interview with Boston’s Mix 104.1 radio station. “And so I’m working towards that goal.”

Young and the Restless 2-Week Spoilers for July 27 – August 7, 2026 are going to see Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) getting a big win that he absolutely does not deserve, but he gets it anyway. And also, Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) is desperate to keep a really big lie going.

Also, in the two weeks of July 27th through August 7th, we’ve got Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes) coming back, Devon Hamilton Winters (Bryton James) spiraling, and Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) having a huge setback in his recovery from addiction. We got all that and tons more. Let’s get into it.

Young and the Restless: Nikki’s Blindness and Adam’s Secret Deal

On Monday, July 27th, Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) is frustrated. She gives up on the idea of putting on makeup and heads downstairs to tell Victor that she had a bad night. Nikki admits she broke her mirror because she’s so upset. And Victor is sure that Nikki’s sight will return, but she really doesn’t want to get her hopes up. And then she snaps when Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) asks how she is. Nikki’s tired of everybody asking her that same question. And when she tries to storm off, she stumbles and nearly falls, but Victor catches her. Nikki burst into tears, saying she hates this.

We’ve also got Chelsea Newman (Melissa Claire Egan) and Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) facing scrutiny from Victor when he doesn’t buy their story about how they got Newman Media back from Sally. And Victoria is there also skeptical of why Sally would just hand over the company for nothing. Adam claims they intimidated Sally and Chelsea backs up Adam’s story. When Victor and Victoria keep sniping at them, Adam finally loses it and says he’s been nothing but loyal.

And Chelsea insists that Victor should be thanking Adam instead of grilling him. But Victor is suspicious because Adam is so defensive and he rants that nothing is a win unless Victor makes it happen. And then Adam and Chelsea storm out and Victoria tells Victor that she agrees with him something’s going on and she’s going to find out what Adam and Chelsea are hiding. So she heads over to Billy’s place.

Y&R Spoilers: Sally Worries about Billy’s Reaction

Elsewhere, Sally and Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) are celebrating their deal with Adam. But Audra worries how Billy is going to react. She thinks Sally needs to tell Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) before he hears it elsewhere. Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) calls Billy about signing his Chancellor contract. He says he’ll send it to Cane soon. Meanwhile, Billy dodges a call from Jill Abbott (Jess Walton).

And then he takes a call from Sally, who tells Billy she made a really big deal and is going to tell him about it in person when she is home soon. Sally tells Audra she’s afraid Billy is going to be angry that she gave the gift that he gave her back to Adam, his greatest enemy.

And before Sally can get there, Victoria shows up to their place and she tells Billy that Sally just gave Newman Media back to Adam and Victoria asks how Billy feels about that. Did it shock him? And he’s quick on his feet. And Billy pretends to Victoria that he already knew about it. But Billy also says he doesn’t work at Spectra-Charles and doesn’t question Sally’s business decisions.

Victoria wants the details of Sally’s deal with Adam. But then Sally walks through the door and Billy says he and Victoria were just discussing Sally’s deal that she cut with Adam. And Sally tells Victoria she and Audra gave Newman Media back because they didn’t want to be at war with Victor. And then Sally lies to Victoria, says she didn’t get any payment for it.

Young and Restless: Romance and Dangerous Setbacks

Victoria leaves and Billy immediately lashes out that he had to hear it from Victoria. And Billy assumes that Adam and Chelsea forced Sally to give the company back. And Billy promises to get it back for her, but Sally says, “No, don’t do that.” Meanwhile, Chelsea and Adam discuss keeping their deal a secret from Victor because it’ll cause problems if he finds out. Adam is really hoping that Sally and Audra keep their promise to stay quiet, keep the lie going.

Chelsea is certain they’ve got Victor and Victoria fooled, but Adam is a little smarter. He’s not so sure. He doesn’t like that Newman Media is still under the Newman umbrella and instead Adam tells Chelsea he’s over all the drama. Adam just wants to work with Chelsea apart from the Newman family stuff and he just wants to spend time with her and Connor.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Billy Furious & Lily & Cane Heat Up

Then, on Tuesday, July 28th, Nikki feels the walls closing in on her as she continues to struggle and adjust to being blind, at least in the short run. And on Wednesday, July 29th, we’ve got Billy showing up to interrogate Adam. Even though Sally told Billy to leave it alone, of course, he won’t. I’m sure he doesn’t believe Sally that Adam didn’t do her dirty.

And I bet Billy thinks Chelsea and Adam bullied pregnant Sally, and that’s going to have Billy on fire and ready to rumble with Adam. Nikki’s condition takes a surprising turn. It would be incredible if she gets her vision back already, but maybe she’ll start to see light and shadow, which would be a good sign that things are coming back.

Sparks are flying for Cane and Lily Winters (Christel Khalil). She invites Cane over to her penthouse pad. He’s smiling and reminding Lily that she made him CEO of Chancellor and now invited him over to her house. So, Cane thinks she’s starting to like him. And I can absolutely see Lily and Cane getting intimate very soon.

Y&R Spoilers: Matt’s a Free Man

Thursday, July 30th, Matt Clark (Roger Howorth) and Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) make a toast to their future. Also, she’s able to get Matt’s ankle monitor off of him, and Phyllis says, “We did it. Got it off. You’re free as a bird.” So, we’ll see if Matt winds up in Phyllis’s bed after this happens as part of their big celebration. Even with a monitor off, I doubt that Matt is going anywhere.

And Lily sets clear boundaries with Cane. If they do end up in bed together, Lily might make it perfectly clear that having Cane over to her place doesn’t mean they’re officially reunited. I’m sure he’ll take whatever Lily offers him, though, even if it’s scraps.

Daniel Romalotti (Michael Graziadei) gets Abby Newman (Melissa Ordway) to open up to him. Daniel tells Abby she looks like she could use a friend and asks if she’ll settle for him. And I’m sure this is about Devon’s anger issues, which is actually something Daniel will have a perspective on because he’s had some of those in the past himself.

Young and Restless: Mariah’s Return and Nick’s Relapse

Then on Friday, July 31st, we have got Victor and Nikki, all smiles, and we have Victor and Nikki committing to starting fresh as a married couple. So, it looks like she’s basically back to enabling Victor despite all the horrible things he’s done to her bestie, Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman).

Matt tries to make up for what he did to Sienna. I’m interested to see how that’s even possible, especially since Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) doesn’t want him near Sienna. And Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) tells Noah that his dad Nick had a setback.

Could be that he caved and called his old dealer and got some pills. Mariah is back in Genoa City at the end of this week and Sharon’s going to be thrilled to see her daughter, but I am certain that Devon is going to be amped up since Mariah is responsible for his anger issues.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Mariah Helps Devon

Then the week of August 3rd through the 7th, we have got good news for Nikki because Jack’s not going to hold it against Nikki that she reunited with Victor because Jack already was encouraging Nikki to get back with Victor, especially given her new health concerns.

And with Mariah back, I expect Abby is going to appeal to Mariah, tell her what Devon’s been going through, because she’s honestly somebody who could really help him work through these issues. And I’m sure Mariah is going to feel responsible for what Devon’s going through. I’m also wondering if we’ll see Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks) and Aria back in Genoa City as well.

Y&R Spoilers: Nick Heads to Rehab

And we may see Nick desperately needing a trip to rehab soon, especially since he is increasingly worked up about Matt and Phyllis and getting texts from his dealer and then has a setback the prior week. Lily and Cane are in uncharted territory. They might just be casual, but it’s great progress. They’re sizzling.

Nikki’s vision may begin to return soon, and Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) could make progress in his plot to destroy Victor by using Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) if the DA will work with him. I also suspect we’re going to see Matt and Phyllis getting a lot closer soon, and I doubt that Matt’s going to leave Genoa City.

Ariana Grande is taking legal action after years of allegedly battling the spread of her unreleased music online.

The singer has reportedly filed a lawsuit against individuals accused of hacking into her private files and distributing songs without permission, marking her strongest response yet to the long-running leak controversy.

The legal action follows years of frustration after Ariana Grande’s unreleased songs repeatedly surfaced online through alleged hacks and leaks, allowing unfinished material to spread across the internet without her approval.

5

Ariana Grande has filed a lawsuit against several unidentified individuals, accusing them of hacking into the digital accounts of photographers and producers she worked with to steal unreleased songs, private photos, videos, and audio recordings.

It was reported that the singer claims cyberattacks have repeatedly targeted her throughout her career. The suit identifies up to 100 John Does, including alleged hackers and anyone involved in distributing, selling, or buying the material.

The content was sold for large amounts of money on the dark web, says Grande, who states that it caused “substantial and irreparable harm.” The singer is seeking relief from the court to end the alleged theft and distribution, and send a warning to all those involved in leaking stolen material.

Grande believes that artists deserve the final say on the timing and nature of their work’s release, and believes that releasing something that an artist has not yet released is an infringement of their creative and privacy rights, per TMZ.

Hackers Turned Unreleased Song Into Viral Hit

5

The leak incident wasn’t the first time the singer has faced a leak scandal. In an interview on the “Zach Sang Show” in 2024, Grande admitted that a handful of tracks from her sessions with producer Max Martin have leaked onto the internet without her consent, including the unreleased song “Fantasize.

The song was reported to have been written for an unnamed TV project and not one of her albums. The pop star did not hide her frustration, joking that those responsible would eventually face the consequences. “I’ll see you in jail, literally,” she said, before describing the people behind the leaks as “thieves, pirates, crooks.”

She also admitted she would “pay you more to put it away” after the unfinished song spread across social media. Despite the setback, Grande said some of those early ideas were eventually reworked into new material, although in very different forms.

Ariana Grande Turned Her Frustration Into New Music

5

Rather than letting the leaks define the project, Grande said the unexpected reaction from fans influenced her creative process. Although “Fantasize” was never intended for release, she acknowledged that listeners embraced it, prompting her to reshape some of its ideas for her “Eternal Sunshine” album.

The singer explained that the versions fans eventually heard were far removed from the leaked recordings, adding that some tracks had even been stolen again before they were officially released.

She also criticized AI-generated songs using her voice, asking, “What are we doing? Why? I hate it.” The experience highlighted the challenges artists face in protecting unfinished work while continuing to create.

Past Copyright Battle Put Another Hit Under Scrutiny

5

Long before the latest lawsuit over alleged hackers, Grande faced a separate legal challenge involving one of her biggest hits. In 2020, hip-hop artist Josh Stone, who performs as DOT, sued the singer over “7 Rings,” alleging that its chorus copied elements of his 2017 song “You Need It, I Got It” without authorization.

Stone claimed the songs shared striking similarities in their lyrics, rhythm, and note placement, arguing that musicology experts found the hooks nearly identical. He also alleged that he had previously pitched the track to producer Tommy Brown before it was later repurposed into “7 Rings.”

According to PEOPLE, the lawsuit sought monetary damages and the destruction of copies of the song held by the defendants. Although the allegations centered on a very different dispute, the case highlighted how questions over ownership and creative rights have followed some of the singer’s biggest releases.

Ariana Grande Has Navigated Music Disputes Before

5

Long before the current hacking lawsuit, Grande had already faced legal challenges tied to her music. The Hollywood Reporter shared that in 2013, UK-based Minder Music sued the singer and several music companies, alleging that “The Way” borrowed a recognizable phrase from The Jimmy Castor Bunch’s 1972 hit “Troglodyte” without authorization, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The publisher claimed that the line was sufficiently original to be protected by copyright and wanted damages as well as legal costs and an injunction. As one of the first cases to involve Grande’s catalog in a copyright dispute, the case is part of a pattern of copyright claims that have emerged over her career.

A decade later, the situation has changed, and the singer is now going to court to defend her own songs, which are still unpublished, instead of a released hit.

With the newest case coming to light, can Ariana Grande put an end to the alleged hackers?

Tuskegee University has a new dress code that bans bonnets and durags, and the move has sparked an online debate. The dress code is part of a new policy banning sleepwear at the college outside of dorms.

HBCU Bans Sleepwear Including Durags and Bonnets

Tuskegee President Dr. Mark A. Brown noted the new dress code in a memo to new students’ parents, per HBCU Game Day.

The memo noted that students aren’t allowed to wear revealing clothing in official university settings, including classrooms, dining spaces, Convocation, or the cafeteria. Additionally, the university banned students from wearing sleepwear outside of the residence halls.

“Dress standards at Tuskegee University require that students are dressed in good taste at all times,” reads the Tuskegee Student Handbook. “Students are not permitted to wear sleepwear outside of the residence halls. Men are not permitted to wear headwear that includes ‘do rags’, stocking caps, bandanas, baseball caps, and/or any other head paraphernalia inside the buildings. Women are not permitted to wear baseball caps inside buildings. Men are required to wear their pants on their waists (no sagging pants) in academic facilities. Any style of dress that distracts or takes away from the teaching/learning process in the classroom will not be permitted. Students are expected to dress in a neat manner and make the appropriate selections for the time, occasion and place.”

Dress Code Sparks Online Debate

After news of the new dress code made the rounds on social media, people weighed in on Instagram, Threads, and TikTok. An online debate quickly ensued in one comment section, as some folks praised the ban while others reacted less enthusiastically.

Instagram user @shaarapickless wrote, “I’m sorry, I didn’t realize school was a fashion show. I came to learn…. //:.”

@cl_e_o_ added, “😮Slippers ain never did nothin to nobody!!”

On Threads, @zakiyakyles wrote, “Kudos to Tuskegee!!!”

TikTok user @for_real_imreallyunique shared a video where she noted that many students may not take the ban too well. She said that while she understood the need for a dress code, college costs money, and students won’t like the bonnet-and-durag portion of the ban.

“College is not free…. It ain’t free at all, and there’s gonna be a lot of students telling you ‘f*ck outta here’.”

After someone noted in the comments that enforcing the dress code may be a challenge, she joked, “I get in certain circumstances to enforce dress code no you shouldn’t be dressing like a lady of the night but do rags and bonnets is what sending a rage….I guess.”

@for_real_imreallyunique

#tuskegeeuniversity just be a college where a uniform is required but yall won’t do that because enrollment will go down.. pick your battles especially since the students are paying to be there #hbcu #dresscode #tedtalk #fypシ゚viral @Tuskegee University

RELATED: Mo’Nique Speaks On Representing Yourself With Pride After Seeing Women Wear Bonnets & Head Scarves In The Airport 

Olivia Rodrigo appears to have firmly moved on from Louis Partridge after sharing her most affectionate public outing yet with reported new boyfriend Julian Croonenberghs.

The 23-year-old singer was photographed cuddling the private-equity professional during a relaxed park date in New York City, weeks after repeated sightings first sparked speculation that she had found love outside the entertainment industry.

The latest photographs reportedly show Rodrigo and Croonenberghs enjoying a laid-back date in a Brooklyn park on Sunday, July 26.

The “Drivers License” singer rested in his arms, smiled as they spoke and kissed his hand during the outing. Croonenberghs was also seen kissing her hand before pulling her close.

According to E! News, Rodrigo kept a relatively low profile in sunglasses and a baseball cap, pairing a cropped vest with denim shorts.

Although the outfit and setting were understated, the couple’s affectionate behaviour made their relationship considerably more difficult to dismiss as a friendship.

The date represents the clearest public display between them since reports of the romance emerged earlier in July.

Neither Rodrigo nor Croonenberghs has personally announced that they are together, and her representatives have not publicly commented on the photographs. The PDA nevertheless appears to confirm weeks of speculation surrounding the pair.

Olivia Rodrigo’s Reported Romance Had Been Building Quietly

Rodrigo and Croonenberghs did not emerge as a reported couple overnight. They were first linked in June after being spotted together at a wine bar in Brooklyn.

Further sightings followed around the borough, allowing fans to identify Rodrigo’s previously unnamed companion as Croonenberghs. Their relationship appeared to be more established when they were subsequently photographed at an airport after reportedly travelling from Iceland to New York.

The overseas sighting gave the speculation more weight, but the pair remained physically reserved in the available photographs. Their latest park date therefore marks a visible change, offering the first widely published images of them openly cuddling and exchanging affectionate gestures.

The emerging timeline suggests that the two had been spending time together privately for several weeks before their romance became a public talking point.

However, while Rodrigo is one of the world’s most recognisable young singers, the man attracting her attention has built his career far away from Hollywood.

Who Is Olivia Rodrigo’s New Man?

i just got the tea on olivia rodrigo’s mystery man she’s dating 👀 his name is julian croonenberghs. he’s a brown university grad, private equity associate in nyc, previously worked in investment banking, and was also a field hockey player for the usa team *thread* pic.twitter.com/5ph8XjZHN0

— luna 🌞 (@lunarayijph) July 14, 2026

Croonenberghs works in private equity as a member of Hg’s Mercury team in New York. According to his official company biography, he joined the investment firm in 2024 after working in Goldman Sachs’ Financial Institutions Investment Banking division.

He graduated from Brown University with a Bachelor of Science degree in applied mathematics and computer science. His professional background makes him a departure from the actors, producers, musicians and entertainment executives previously linked to Rodrigo.

Croonenberghs also has a notable sporting history. Published reports identify him as a former member of the United States men’s national field hockey team, representing the country between 2018 and 2020. He also played the sport during his time at Brown.

Although some reports have referred to him broadly as a banker or Wall Street figure, “private-equity professional” is the most accurate description of his current occupation. Unlike Rodrigo, he has no established career in entertainment and maintained a low public profile before their reported relationship became news.

The Singer Recently Revealed Her New Outlook On Love

Rodrigo’s apparent new relationship comes months after she discussed how her approach to romance had changed following earlier heartbreak.

During an April interview with Cosmopolitan, conducted by her longtime friend and former “Bizaardvark” co-star Madison Hu, Rodrigo said patience was one of the most important lessons she had learned about love.

“Things happen the way that they’re supposed to happen,” she said, adding that romance should not feel “white-knuckle.”

The Grammy winner also suggested that dating no longer occupied the centre of her emotional life. She described romantic love as a “cherry on top” while emphasising the importance of friendships and the community she had built around herself.

Her comments were made before Croonenberghs was publicly identified as her reported partner, but they now offer relevant context for a romance that appears to have developed without a formal announcement or highly choreographed debut.

Rodrigo’s New Chapter Follows Louis Partridge Split

Olivia Rodrigo’s romance with Croonenberghs is her first widely reported relationship since her split from English actor Louis Partridge.

The former couple began dating in late 2023 and were seen together repeatedly during their nearly two-year romance. They made a prominent public appearance at the 2024 Venice Film Festival before reportedly ending their relationship in December 2025.

Advertisement

Their breakup became closely linked to Rodrigo’s third album, “You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love,” released in June 2026. The project has widely been interpreted as tracing the arc of their relationship, from early infatuation and plans for a future together to disappointment and acceptance after the split.

Reports indicate that Rodrigo initially conceived portions of the project while she was still with Partridge before revising its emotional direction following their breakup. However, she has not confirmed that every lyric or song concerns him.

Croonenberghs’ arrival therefore coincides with a significant transition in both Rodrigo’s personal life and her music.

Justin Baldoni’s Wayfarer Studios has been ordered to pay The New York Times’ legal fees after its lawsuit against the publication was dismissed.

According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Wayfarer Studios LLC has been ordered to pay $171,616 to the news outlet.

Us has reached out to Baldoni’s team for comment.

In December 2024, The New York Times initially reported on Blake Lively’s complaint against Baldoni, her It Ends With Us costar and director.

Lively, 38, accused Baldoni of sexual harassment, creating a hostile work environment and orchestrating an alleged smear campaign against her.

Baldoni, 42, denied all allegations and subsequently filed a $400 million lawsuit against Lively and a $250 million lawsuit against The New York Times.

Baldoni and his associates alleged that The New York Times “cherry-picked” information to mislead readers about his dispute with Lively in its December 2024 article titled “We Can Bury Anyone: Inside a Hollywood Smear Machine.”

In June 2025, however, Judge Lewis J. Liman dismissed Baldoni’s lawsuit against The New York Times and Lively.

“We are grateful to the court for seeing the lawsuit for what it was: a meritless attempt to stifle honest reporting,” a spokesperson for The New York Times said in a statement to Us at the time. “Our journalists went out and covered carefully and fairly a story of public importance, and the court recognized that the law is designed to protect just that sort of journalism.”

The statement continued: “We will continue to stand up in court for our journalism and for our journalists when their work comes under attack.”

In May, Baldoni and Lively reached a settlement in their own It Ends With Us legal battle, just weeks before they were set to go to trial. A source told Us at the time that money was not exchanged between Lively and Baldoni.

“The end product — the movie It Ends With Us — is a source of pride to all of us who worked to bring it to life. Raising awareness, and making a meaningful impact in the lives of domestic violence survivors — and all survivors — is a goal that we stand behind,” Lively and Baldoni said in a statement to Us via their attorneys on May 4. “We acknowledge the process presented challenges and recognize concerns raised by Ms. Lively deserved to be heard.”

Blake Lively’s team has reacted after a U.S. District Court judge ruled to throw out 10 of 13 claims against her It Ends With Us director and costar Justin Baldoni amid their ongoing legal battle. “This case has always been and will remain focused on the devasting retaliation and the extraordinary steps the defendants took […]

The statement continued, “We remain firmly committed to workplaces free of improprieties and unproductive environments. It is our sincere hope that this brings closure and allows all involved to move forward constructively and in peace, including a respectful environment online.”

Settlement aside, the It Ends With Us drama doesn’t appear to be officially over. In June, Lively requested that Baldoni pay approximately $8 million in legal fees.

Baldoni’s lawyers, however, slammed the request, claiming via court documents, “Lively fails to meet her burden to present credible evidence showing that the fees and costs she seeks to recover are reasonable and, accordingly, her fee motion should be denied in its entirety.”

New details have been released about former child star Blake Garrett’s death.

Garrett, 33, was found unresponsive next to his bed in a sober living house on February 8 and pronounced dead at the scene, according to documents from the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Tulsa, Oklahoma, obtained by Us on Monday, July 27.

Drug paraphernalia, including rolled dollar bills, a lighter and foil with burnt residue, were present at the scene, per the docs, which noted that his body was received on February 9 for an autopsy examination. Identifying marks included a “1992” tattoo on his neck and a tattoo honoring his mom on his foot.

Autopsy findings showed his alcohol testing came back negative. Us previously exclusively reported Garrett’s cause of death as acute fentanyl toxicity. His death was ruled an accident.

Garrett began his acting career as a child in local productions, including Aladdin and His Magical Lamp and Peanuts: A Charlie Brown Tribute. He began touring at age 10 for the arena show Barney’s Colorful World International Tour.

Garrett made his video debut at age 11 in 2004’s Barney’s Colorful World, Live! He later starred in his first and only feature film, How to Eat Fried Worms, playing Plug, a friend of classroom bully Joe (Adam Hicks), in 2006.
