Celine Dion‘s tears of triumph are the perfect bow atop her highly anticipated Paris residency!

As the iconic singer took the stage for her first full concert in six years, she appeared visibly overwhelmed with emotion, met with roaring cheers and loud applause.

Celine Dion has reportedly been preparing for this residency with a team of healthcare specialists, combining the treatments with physical training, therapy and dance routines.

A clip from the singer’s first show of the residency billed to run from September to October was shared on Variety’s X page, where she could not hold back her tears. Dion looked breathtaking in an extravagant black strapless number with an exaggerated peplum top and a straight skirt.

She paired the look with a chunky diamond necklace as she pulled her hair into a sleek bun to complement her perfectly made-up face. Dion let the waterworks have their way amid a performance, and despite her attempts to let the vocals out, the emotions overpowered her, prompting her to take more pauses while the orchestra played on.

The singer’s expression resonated deeply with her lifelong fans, who felt the moment with her and flooded the comments with soothing words, praising her hard work and resolve to sing again. 

“She deserves eternal applause,” this X subscriber declared. Another commenter stated that, with it being the singer’s “first headlining performance in six years,” her being emotional on stage was not far-fetched.

The ‘My Heart Will Go On’ Hitmaker Described Her Performance As A ‘Promise’ Kept

The tears and sonorous notes were not the only highlights of the night; Dion also gave a touching speech, as noted by Variety. The singer informed her eager audience that she had promised to keep the tears at bay, but seeing a packed venue and realizing how much she had missed them was tear-jerking.

She thanked everyone for coming out to Paris for her show, assuring first-timers in Paris that they had a high chance of falling in love with the city, just like she has. “Finally, it’s amazing we are all together. I made a promise to come back, to be back on stage. So here I am, singing for you and singing for me, singing live!” Dion continued.

The singer reiterated her gratitude to her fans for their support and patience over the years, noting that their love kept her going when everything went bleak. She urged her fans to take the positive energy that accompanied her comeback and extend it to the next person who may also be secretly going through a difficult time.

On her health struggles, the singer shared that she has come to terms with it after 17 years of dealing with the symptoms and has made it her reason for living.

Inside The Journey Behind Celine Dion’s Newly Found Strength

Since sharing in March that she would return to the stage later in the year, sources close to the singer told US Weekly that she began putting in consistent hard work to make her promise a reality.

Fully understanding the nature and symptoms of her Stiff Person Syndrome, the source shared that she began rebuilding her strength and mobility through rehabilitation.

As noted by The Blast, the only agenda on that list was that the singer make her comeback a heroic story of pushing through the emotional highs and lows. According to the insider, “She is physically so strong and has done so much hard work to get here. She trains almost every day on top of physical therapy.”

Dion’s process was described as a labor of love, fueled by sheer determination and the confidence to deliver the standard that has defined her brand for years.

With the help of knowledgeable doctors, the award-winning vocalist reportedly prepared for one of the biggest arcs of her career with the resilience it required.

As the singer gradually finds her spot on the stage for the long term once again, a creative stunt by a TV personality several studios away casts another light on a not-so-explored area of her career -ballroom dance performances.

As “DWTS” heads into its 35th season, judge Derek Hough spilled the tea on some of his ballroom fantasies, with Dion right at the center. As shared by The Blast, Hough had played around with an AI-generated video on Instagram that showed him and the singer posing together for an official cast photo. 

Hough joked in the caption that he would not hesitate to choose the musical icon as his perfect ballroom partner should the opportunity avail itself. He had previously named Dion as his dream guest for the show after an encounter with her, which reinforced his belief that her talent was dance-worthy.

The singer is, however, no stranger to the show, as she previously appeared as a guest performer on its 5th season to belt out her iconic single “My Heart Will Go On” while the dancers performed a routine to that rendition.

The philanthropist briefly took the microphone two years ago while she publicly dealt with the condition. Dion took to the stage in Paris to sing Edith Piaf’s “L’Hymne à l’Amour” during the opening ceremony.

The performance was reportedly free of charge for the singer, but it made history as fans trooped to the streets to catch a glimpse of her belting out the sonorous tunes. Dion had closed the opening ceremony with an emotional performance from the base of the Eiffel Tower.

Wearing a stunning custom sequined Dior gown with cascading fringe, she marked Dion’s second time performing at the Olympics opening ceremony. She gave an unforgettable rendition of her hit song “The Power Of The Dream” at the 1996 Games in Atlanta, USA.

One of the most acclaimed action movies of the year; in fact, one of the most acclaimed movies of the year, period, is about to get easier to access. Released theatrically in June, the martial arts extravaganza received near-unanimous praise from critics and audiences, and more than doubled its reported budget at the box office. It follows a man who goes on a quest to rescue his kidnapped daughter. Along the way, he is joined by an undercover operative. Together, they take down a trafficking ring in modern-day Bangkok. The movie itself hails from Hong Kong, was filmed in Bangkok, and was directed by Japanese filmmaker Kenji Tanigaki. It is headlined by Chinese actor Xie Miao and Indonesian martial arts stars Yayan Ruhian and Joe Taslim, who broke out with a role in The Raid. Taslim subsequently appeared in Fast & Furious 6, Mortal Kombat, and Star Trek Beyond.

The new movie was compared to the John Wick franchise upon release, thanks mainly to its intricately choreographed action sequences. It now holds a “Certified Fresh” 98% critics’ score and a “Verified Hot” 95% audience score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes — this is higher than any movie in the John Wick franchise. It’s also the highest-rated action movie of the year, according to Rotten Tomatoes, ahead of films such as the recently released Mayday, starring Ryan Reynolds and Kenneth Branagh, and The Rip, starring Ben Affleck and Matt Damon.

Here’s Where You Can Watch the Year’s Top-Rated Action Movie

We’re talking, of course, about The Furious. The film’s Rotten Tomatoes consensus reads, “The Furious detonates into a relentless, blood-soaked spectacle of breathtakingly inventive martial arts choreography, with director Kenji Tanigaki delivering a brutal, balletic action extravaganza.” Produced on a reported budget of $20 million, the movie grossed more than $40 million at the worldwide box office. While this isn’t as high as other Chinese blockbusters, it’s still enough to break even. Of this $40 million-plus haul, $6.5 million came from domestic theaters. The Furious will be added to the Starz library on September 26, having already enjoyed a solid run on the PVOD market. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.

Lil Durk and his mom, LaShawnda Woodard, have both faced more than their fair share of heartbreak. Now, she’s opening up about some of the pain she’s carried behind closed doors. In a deeply personal conversation, Woodard reflected on motherhood and grief. She also got candid about trauma and the difficult process of letting go of the blame she’s held onto for years.

Lil Durk’s Mom Says She Blames Herself

During a recent episode of ‘If You Knew Better with Amber Grimes,’ LaShawnda Woodard got candid about the emotional weight surrounding her family and the loss of her son, Dontay “DThang” Banks Jr., who was killed in 2021. While discussing the grief and responsibility she has carried as a mother, Woodard made the heartbreaking admission, “I blame myself for my son getting killed.” The conversation also touched on Woodard’s experiences surviving sexual assault as a teenager. She reflected on the depression and self-blame she carried afterward, and how those unresolved wounds impacted her journey through motherhood.

What Else Did Woodard Reveal?

Woodard also reflected on raising her children while navigating her own trauma. She opened up about how pain can shape a parent. She also reflected on how those experiences can influence the way they view their role in their children’s lives. Host Amber Grimes encouraged Woodard to extend herself some grace, while emphasizing the difference between accountability and blame. Grimes also challenged her to release some of the responsibility she has carried on her shoulders for so long. The emotional conversation ultimately centered on healing, forgiveness, grief, and learning to acknowledge the good alongside the painful moments.

New Video Shows Lil Durk Before Verdict

Just yesterday, Lil Durk’s legal saga took a major turn, and now, a video is giving fans a glimpse inside the courtroom just moments before the verdict was read. The footage, which surfaced shortly after news broke that the Chicago rapper had been acquitted of all counts in his murder-for-hire case, shows Durk seated in court wearing a brown suit and sporting a noticeably shorter haircut. His family was also present for the pivotal moment, including his wife and longtime partner, India Royale, as they awaited the jury’s decision.

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift arrived at their latest New York City date night holding hands, but it was their noticeably different exit that sent social media into overdrive. Video shared on Reddit showed the Kansas City Chiefs star walking Swift toward one vehicle, then letting go of her hand and heading to another car without looking back.

The brief interaction prompted questions about why the newlyweds left separately and why their goodbye appeared so casual. However, the footage does not reveal where either person was headed or what may have happened outside the camera’s view.

The footage was shared in a Reddit thread titled, “Travis walking Taylor to her own car while he then walks away to his own car.” In the clip, Swift and Kelce are seen walking hand in hand as security personnel and photographers surround them.

Kelce then appeared to guide his wife toward a waiting vehicle before letting go of her hand and walking in the opposite direction. Swift continued toward the car while Kelce approached another vehicle nearby. The couple did not appear to hug or kiss goodbye during the portion of the interaction captured on video.

It remains possible that they had already said goodbye privately, planned to meet again later, or had separate commitments. There has been no confirmation explaining why they used different vehicles.

Nevertheless, the few seconds of footage proved more than enough to ignite a debate among viewers.

Reddit Users Questioned The Couple’s Casual Goodbye

5

Several Reddit users focused less on the separate cars and more on how quickly Kelce appeared to walk away. “The way that he walks away without turning back to see that she got into the car safely tells me everything I need to know,” one person wrote.

Another commenter reacted, “He didn’t even wait until she was in the car! Sheesh.” A third simply asked, “No goodbye kiss?”

Others found humor in the apparently businesslike interaction. “They have the energy of coworkers who don’t really like each other but have to do a lot of presentations together,” one user joked.

Another added, “That’s what I look like when I am checking out at the end of a long workday.”

Their Separate Cars May Have Had A Practical Explanation

5

Some Reddit users suggested that Kelce may have needed to travel back to Kansas City while Swift remained in New York. However, neither the couple nor their representatives confirmed that explanation.

Kelce is preparing to begin the NFL season with the Chiefs. Kansas City will host the Denver Broncos at Arrowhead Stadium on Monday, September 14. That upcoming game could explain why Kelce had different travel plans, although it has not been confirmed that the vehicle seen in the video was taking him to an airport.

Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Held Hands Earlier That Evening

The exit followed what otherwise appeared to be an affectionate night out for Swift and Kelce. The couple visited Ambassadors Clubhouse, an upscale Indian restaurant in Manhattan’s NoMad neighborhood, on September 6.

According to Page Six, they arrived together, and Kelce placed his hand on Swift’s back as they entered. They reportedly ate in the main dining room with two unidentified men before leaving hand in hand. PEOPLE reported that the appearance marked one of the couple’s first public outings since they married at Madison Square Garden on July 3.

The Newlyweds Have Kept Much Of Their Marriage Private

5

Swift and Kelce have shared few details about their married life since their star-studded wedding. No official photographs of the bride and groom have been publicly released, despite intense interest in Swift’s wedding dress and the elaborate celebration.

Kelce discussed the nuptials during the season premiere of his “New Heights” podcast, describing the ceremony as unforgettable. “It was a fun off-season, man. The wedding was the best night of my life, and I appreciate everyone who came out and celebrated and had fun with us,” he said.

He also explained that guests were asked to surrender their phones, which helped prevent photographs and videos from circulating without the couple’s permission. “With no phones comes, you know, people not having to be on guard,” Kelce said. “It makes everyone be in the moment and be present.”

For now, the reason behind their separate exit remains unknown.

Every year around Halloween, I watch Practical Magic and think the same thing: Man, I really want that skirt! All the outfits from the original film are incredible (the cardigans alone are essentially supporting characters), but the white floral skirt style worn by Sandra Bullock’s Sally Owens leaves me inspired to shop. This year, I’m adding the perfectly ‘90s piece to my fall wardrobe by shopping a lookalike worthy of the big screen.

If you’re ready to get your witchy vibes on, or just want a chic piece that pairs perfectly with a solid black top (like Sally showed Us!), you’ll want to do the same. Check out these Practical Magic-inspired skirts I found ahead. P.S., they’re also perfect for wearing to watch the movie’s sequel, Practical Magic 2, which is in theaters now!

13 Floral Maxis That Look Like Sandra Bullock’s Practical Magic Skirt

1. My Favorite: Although it’s more pink than white, this $25 midi skirt flawlessly nails those ‘90s witch vibes. The silhouette is sleek, rather than flowy, and the floral print isn’t too bold, making the piece even more versatile. I’m feeling the brown color, too!

2. Runner-Up: What I really love about Sally’s floral skirt is that it’s so throw-on-and-go; she pairs it with a black tank and (at times) a coordinating sweater and boom, her outfit’s done. The same formula can be achieved with this flowy boho find . . . although it’ll look great with cozy knits and boots, too.

3. Petite-Friendly: As someone who is 5’0”, finding a maxi skirt that doesn’t drag along the floor can be tough. Thankfully, Abercrombie’s high-rise option comes in petite sizing, so shorties can nail the look without tripping over extra material.

4. Luxe Look: The best fashion finds are ones you can dress up one day, then wear casually the next. Quince’s silky slip skirt checks all those boxes, and then some. The straight silhouette looks elegant and sophisticated, while the stretchy elastic waist keeps things comfy.

5. On Sale: I actually can’t believe this Madewell skirt is on sale! The larger floral print is so similar to Sally’s look, and at under $60, it might just be the best fashion purchase you make all fall.

6. Beige Alternative: If white feels too summery for you, that’s fine — you can still channel your favorite witch with this seasonal beige floral skirt. The smocked waist means it’ll still fit (and flatter!) on days when jeans feel too tight.

7. Up to 5X: Not only is this A-line floral design size-inclusive, but it’s also on sale for $13. Psst, it also has what shoppers describe as “proper pockets.” I’m sold!

8. Pops of Color: Sally’s skirt stayed in neutral territory, but if you’re tired of your wardrobe looking like a mix of black, white and gray, liven up your rotation with this Petal & Pup pick. The blue, red and green flowers feel fresh and lively, and will seamlessly transition from summer to fall.

8. Boho Vibes: If you’re going to find a ‘90s-inspired floral maxi skirt anywhere, it’ll be Free People. The brand’s pink-printed option feels like something Nicole Kidman‘s character Gillian might borrow from her sister, and that’s exactly why I love it.

9. Paisley Pick: Florals are always in style, but if you’re hoping to freshen up your outfits with trendy pieces, go with a paisley maxi skirt instead. The ‘90s-approved print is back in a big way, so you can embrace Bullock’s movie wardrobe while remaining on-trend for 2026.

10. Short and Sweet: If long skirts aren’t quite your style, Reformation has the perfect alternative. Its Brandy Skirt comes in a seasonal green floral print that pretty much screams ‘fall.’ It begs to be worn with everything from simple long-sleeved T-shirts to oversized crewneck sweaters.

11. ‘90s Essential: There’s something about this Princess Polly skirt that reminds me of Rachel Green from Friends, which is perfect, since Jennifer Aniston is besties with Bullock IRL. Add it to your cart now to channel two iconic characters at once.

Kroy Biermann Jr.’s bond hearing on Friday, September 11, resulted in a shocking claim from Fulton County Deputy District Attorney Caitlin McGillicuddy about videos involving sexual abuse. As previously reported, the 15-year-old was arrested on August 17 in Alpharetta, Georgia, on multiple sexual assault charges. Also known as KJ Biermann Jr., he is the son of ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ star Kim Zolciak and former NFL player Kroy Biermann.

Recap Of Kroy Biermann Jr.’s 2026 Case

KJ was arrested in August for allegedly sexually assaulting a 15-year-old female classmate back in April. He was 14 at the time. The assault reportedly occurred in the changing room of the Life Time Fitness Center, according to KCRG. A police officer was dispatched to North Fulton Hospital on April 24 for a sexual assault report.  The report said that the assault allegedly happened on April 23. Kim Zolciak later told TMZ that Biermann denies the allegations, which she said are “reckless.”

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

Bond Hearing Reveals Past Sexual Assault Incident With Underage Relative (UPDATE)

During the bond hearing on Friday, DA McGillicuddy revealed that investigators allegedly found videos on KJ’s cell phone of him penetrating a relative, according to Page Six. Furthermore, McGillicuddy said the family member in the videos was reportedly under 12. The incident with Biermann’s underage relative reportedly was reported to authorities back in 2023, according to 11 Alive News. Furthermore, the outlet noted that the teenager has been under court supervision since October 2025 because of the incident.

“This would now mark the second time he has been charged with an offense of a sexual nature of a very serious kind which involves female victims,” said McGillicuddy.

The DA also noted that multiple videos on KJ’s phone also allegedly showed him using “predatory, derogatory” language during the sexual encounters with a minor, per Page Six.

Remy Ma and Papoose have been making headlines amid their ongoing divorce proceedings, and now, Angela Yee is adding another layer to the conversation. While the former couple’s relationship has continued to play out in the public eye, details surrounding what reportedly went down in court Friday are giving folks even more to talk about.

Angela Yee Details Remy Ma & Papoose Divorce Drama

On Friday, ‘Way Up With Angela Yee’ shared a caption that read, “After a day of social media back-and-forth, there’s a new development in the Remy Ma and Papoose divorce case. Angela Yee and Doug Phenom discuss what happened.” In the accompanying clip, Angela Yee revealed that she recently interviewed Papoose’s current partner, Claressa Shields, for her podcast ‘Lip Service.’ Yee explained that a back-and-forth between Shields and Remy Ma reportedly took place not too long afterward. Yee also shared that there was apparently a virtual court date on Friday.

Judge Denies Reportedly Denies Motion In Case

Yee went on to explain that Remy Ma filed a motion seeking to have Papoose’s divorce complaint dismissed. According to Yee, the judge denied the motion, meaning the divorce proceedings remain ongoing. She further stated that there has been no final resolution in the matter at this time and that the divorce case is still active.

Yee then questioned why someone would file a motion asking for a divorce to be dismissed. She said she did some research and found that there are several reasons someone could potentially seek to have a divorce filing dismissed, depending on the circumstances of the case. For now, it appears the legal proceedings between Remy Ma and Papoose are continuing, with no final resolution announced.

Remy Ma Says, “You Wasn’t Even There Tho”

And Remy Ma apparently caught wind of the conversation — and she wasn’t letting it slide! The rapper pulled up in the comments of ‘Way Up With Angela Yee’s’ Instagram post and seemingly addressed the discussion, writing, “Say their names or keep it on the playground.” But she didn’t stop there. In a follow-up comment, Remy shared a popular GIF featuring Kandi Burruss repeatedly saying, “THE LIES,” seemingly making it clear how she felt about what was being discussed.

The Internet Has Thoughts

Folks wasted no time running to ‘Way Up With Angela Yee’s’ Instagram comment section and running up the reactions after Remy Ma chimed in. Some called on Angela to “get the story straight” before reporting on the situation. But others speculated that Remy may be trying to dismiss the divorce proceedings so she doesn’t have to give Papoose “half.”

One Instagram user @bigmama_757 said, “She’s knows what she’s doing by saying it like this. She filed to dismiss HIS filing because he asked for half!”

Meanwhile, Instagram user @lotsacoco added, “Claressa said it was virtual. If it doesn’t come out of Remy or Papoose’s mouth, I don’t believe it.”

While Instagram user @ndotdink claimed, “She probably wants to dismiss his and use her filing. Since he’s asking for half.”

This Instagram user @attorneysymoneredwine wrote, “why don’t y’all hire attorneys so you can be accurate?”

Likewise, Instagram user @ambria_pittman shared, “Y’all be sounding crazy get the story straight then report on it 😔”

Lastly, Instagram user @msscorpio41 said, “I Truly believe Pap is telling Claressa all kinds of Lies and she believes every last one of them!!!!🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️”

Meanwhile, Papoose has mostly stayed out of the mix while Claressa and Remy previously traded words online. But chile, Pap eventually came through with some thoughts of his own about his estranged wife. The rapper dropped his track ‘Jezebel,’ where he seemingly addresses their viral split. On the track, Pap accuses Remy of cheating and claims he’s still been holding her down despite how she feels about his relationship with Claressa.

“You cheated with a fake Papoose
I never spoke to the public even though it was true
Just kept raisin’ my daughter like a father should do
She cried callin’ your phone; we couldn’t get through
I finally got tired; year number two
Now you make up a lie and said I cheated on you?
How bizarre is this? I always treated you marvelous,” Pap raps.

Kim Zolciak isn’t the only one facing lingering debt after her son Kroy “KJ” Biermann Jr.’s escalating legal troubles.

Court documents obtained exclusively by Us reveal that Zolciak’s estranged husband, Kroy Biermann, was ordered to pay more than $64,000 in connection with his gambling debt following a November 2021 trip to the Bahamas. He defaulted, so now the company is coming to collect in his home state of Georgia.

Sky Warrior, which handles the credit lines at the Baha Mar Casino in the Bahamas, filed a request to transfer the case from New Jersey to the Peach State in December 2025, and a Fulton County judge signed off on March 17.

“The foreign judgment awards [Sky Warrior] the sum of $52,500, plus prejudgment interest, together with $11,927.35 in attorneys’ fees and costs,” the ruling read from earlier this year.

Additional court documents show that Biermann, 40, was served the post-judgment order at his Georgia home on August 28 — just days after KJ’s arrest on August 17.

Us reached out to Biermann’s attorney for comment.

The former NFL player turned Bravolebrity was sued in 2023 over the $100,000 line of credit he obtained from Sky Warrior to use at Baha Mar Casino. The company claimed he spent $52,500 in chip markers to gamble and failed to pay it back before leaving, despite claiming he had money in his SunTrust bank account for repayment.

“Despite multiple demands, Biermann has failed and refused to pay the Outstanding Amount,” the original lawsuit stated. “Biermann’s refusal to pay… constitutes a breach of the Credit Agreement.”

Biermann and Zolciak’s money woes date back years before their final divorce filing in February 2025. (Their divorce case is still ongoing.)

The exes and their family were even forced out of their Alpharetta home by U.S. marshals in April 2025.

As Us previously reported, Zolciak, 48, is also facing six-figure debt following two separate ongoing lawsuits, in which she’s accused of not paying a credit card bill and failing to repay a $131,000 business loan.

Biermann and Zolciak are also dealing with legal trouble involving their son, which only got worse when new allegations of his alleged behavior were brought to light at his bond hearing on Friday, September 11.

Kim Zolciak is facing $150K in money woes as she fights for her son Kroy “KJ” Biermann Jr.’s freedom, Us can exclusively reveal. The Real Housewives of Atlanta alum’s six-figure debt is coming to light in two separate ongoing lawsuits weeks after Zolciak’s son, whom she shares with estranged husband Kroy Biermann, was arrested in […]

Prosecutors accused KJ, 15, of having sex with an underage relative. They claimed investigators allegedly uncovered footage on his phone that showed him and an unidentified family member under the age of 12 engaging in sexual activity, according to Page Six.

The outlet also reported that investigators discovered “multiple encounters” where KJ allegedly used “predatory [and] derogatory” language toward the underage family member. The incident had not been publicly reported, with prosecutors now planning to press charges.

KJ’s attorney, Jason Sheffield, denied the allegations against his client after the hearing, telling TMZ: “The characterizations made in court regarding the prior juvenile matter involving KJ Biermann grossly misrepresent both the facts and the ultimate resolution of that case.”

Sheffield added, “The matter arose from inappropriate, crude behavior involving two middle-schoolers.”

As Us previously reported, KJ was arrested in August for aggravated sexual assault and aggravated sodomy after an alleged incident with a female student in a local gym sauna. At the time, Sheffield denied any wrongdoing on his client’s behalf.

The teen was then indicted on September 3 for aggravated child molestation, aggravated sexual battery, aggravated sodomy, false imprisonment and three counts of sexual battery against a child under the age of 16.

Zolciak fiercely defended her son after his arrest.

Additionally, an examination was conducted, and no DNA belonging to my son was found.”

Zolciak added, “We remain confident that the facts and evidence will establish the truth, and we ask that people allow the proper process to take its course rather than spreading unproven allegations.”
