Amanda Batula and West Wilson Pack on the PDA on Kiss Cam
Amanda Batula and West Wilson are putting their blossoming romance on full display.
The Summer House costars packed on the PDA at a baseball game in New York on Friday, April 17. Their display of affection was captured on the venue’s Kiss Cam and broadcast via the Yes Network.
In the footage, West, 31, could be seen leaning in to plant a kiss on Amanda, 34, as they sat among the crowd watching the Kansas City Royals take on the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium.
Last month, Amanda and West posted a joint statement via Instagram to address their relationship as whispers got louder that the pair had embarked on a romance following Amanda’s split from Kyle Cooke.
“We’ve seen the growing online speculation, so while this is still very new, we wanted to provide some clarity,” read the joint statement posted on March 31. “It was never our intention to purposely hide anything. Given the complicated relationship dynamics involved and the scrutiny that comes with being on a reality show, we needed a little space to process things privately before speaking on it.”
In the statement Amanda and West went on to share how their relationship had evolved from their initial friendship.

“We’ve shown up for each other as friends over the years, through all the highs and lows, and what’s developed recently was the last thing either of us expected,” they continued. “Our connection grew out of a genuine, longstanding friendship, which made it especially important for us to approach this with care.”
The pair faced backlash for their burgeoning relationship due to West previously dating Amanda’s best friend and Summer House costar, Ciara Miller, in 2023.
For her part, Ciara, 30, broke her silence on the controversy during an interview with Glamour published on Friday.
“It’s one thing to experience hurt behind closed doors,” Ciara told the outlet.. “To experience it so publicly is like another layer, and then to have to see what you thought was your life still play out in season 10. It’s a major mindf***.”
Ciara also claimed that she had “less than 24 hours” notice about the statement before it was posted.
“I read it with the rest of the world,” she said. “There’s something about the lack of being able to say each other’s names in the statement that I found very telling, but I don’t know.”

Prince Harry Reportedly Pivoting To Self-Help Books In Bold Move
Prince Harry is reportedly interested in how the mind works and has been paying attention to psychology to better understand the whole concept of healing.
Sources claim the Duke of Sussex might even write a book on how to grow from one’s past struggles, thereby opening up another money-making avenue amid he and Meghan Markle‘s alleged financial constraints.
During his Australia tour, Prince Harry talked about his struggles with grief, saying that after his mom, Princess Diana, died, he didn’t want to have anything to do with being a working royal.
Sources Claim Prince Harry Has Been Looking Into Psychology

Prince Harry has reportedly been doing the work to gain more knowledge on healing and how the mind works.
The father of two has always been open about mental health-related struggles, which reportedly led him to do things he isn’t proud of in the past.
Reports suggest he’s now studying it in-depth and is paying attention to psychology, which could open up another opportunity for him to write a book.
“Harry isn’t dabbling — he’s all in,” a source told Rob Shuter’s #ShutterScoop. “He’s studying how the mind works… and, of course, how his works.”
“Don’t be shocked if it’s self-help,” another source noted. “He thinks he’s cracked a few life lessons — and wants to share them.”
The Duke Is Transitioning Into A Self-Help Guru

Harry and Meghan have been in Australia as part of what some critics are calling a quasi-royal tour of the country.
The couple has visited the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne, as well as met with occupants of a women’s homeless shelter and other charitable acts.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex left their royal roles in 2020 and later opened up in a series of interviews and in Harry’s blockbuster memoir “Spare” that a toxic combination of British tabloid interference, online bullying, and complicated family dynamics led them to make the decision.
After weathering the storm, insiders say Harry is ready to create something that may help others and could be transitioning into a full-blown self-help guru.
“He’s turned his struggles into a brand; now he wants to turn it into a guide,” a source shared, while another noted that Harry “genuinely believes he’s onto something,” but it remains to be seen if others share his keen interest.
“He’s moving from telling his story to teaching lessons,” the source added. “Ready or not.”
Prince Harry Opened Up About His Struggles With Mental Health Issues

As they prepare to wrap up their trip to Australia, Harry opened up about his past struggles dealing with grief, particularly after the death of his mom, Princess Diana, who died in August 1997 following a car crash in Paris.
During his keynote address at the InterEdge Psychosocial Safety Summit in Melbourne on Thursday, the father of two explained that his mom’s death caused him so much pain to the point that he detested being a working royal.
“After my mum died just before my 13th birthday – I was like: ‘I don’t want this job. I don’t want this role – wherever this is headed, I don’t like it,’” he said.
“It killed my mum, and I was very much against it, and I stuck my head in the sand for years and years,” Harry added.
“Eventually I realized – well, hang on, if there was somebody else in this position, how would they be making the most of this platform and this ability and the resources that come with it to make a difference in the world?” the prince asked.
The Duke Admits He Once Felt ‘Lost’ And ‘Betrayed’

Speaking to the audience at the event in Australia, Harry shared that there were times in his life when he felt “lost, betrayed, or completely powerless” as a result of the impact the loss of his mom had on him.
“In my experience, loss is disorienting at any age,” he told the crowd. “Grief does not disappear because we ignore it.”
Harry continued, “Experiencing that as a kid while in a goldfish bowl under constant surveillance, yes, that will have its challenges. And without purpose, it can break you.”

He went further to add that there were times in his life when the pressure he felt from within and without was so overwhelming, but he still had to show up “pretending everything was okay, so as not to let anyone down.”
“For many years I was numb to it, and perhaps that was easier then, but I also didn’t yet have the tools to deal with it,” he added.
He later shared that his time serving in the military in Afghanistan helped him build resilience, while becoming a parent helped focus his perspective, adding that one of his “biggest shifts” came when he realized “asking for help isn’t a weakness,” but a “form of strength.”

Why Danity Kane Is Slamming Two Of The Group’s Members
There seems to be trouble brewing amongst Danity Kane members. After the upcoming LA Block Party began promoting D. Woods and Aundrea Fimbres’ individual performances as part of a DK reunion, the group’s official Instagram account chimed in, slamming the event and calling the promotional materials “false advertisement.” The statement comes as a surprise to some, given that three of the ladies concluded the band’s “Comeback Tour” in December 2025.
The Official Danity Kane Instagram Account Slams LA Block Party

According to TMZ, the beef in the group began earlier this week when Woods and Fimbres shared a promotional flyer of the LA Block Party promoting “Danity Kane.”
The event will take place on June 20 at Pershing Square in Los Angeles and will feature other music legends, including Keyshia Cole, Mario, and Fabolous.
Despite the girl group’s name being blasted on the website and flyers in bold letters, the group’s official Instagram account made it clear that it is not what it appears to be.
“To clarify, a recent flyer promoting ‘Danity Kane’ performing on June 20th is not a full group performance,” the statement read. “Only two members independently booked this appearance. Dawn Richard, Aubrey O’Day, and Shannon Bex were neither informed, nor will be in attendance.”

Continuing, the group said that the promotion “constitutes false advertising and a misleading promotion,” causing confusion among fans.
“Presenting a two-member lineup under the full Danity Kane name without clear and accurate disclosure results in deception of fans and a clear misrepresentation of what is being offered,” it read. “We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.”
Danity Kane was formed on the third season of Diddy’s “Making the Band” and was signed to his label, Bad Boy Records.
Over the years, the group disbanded and reunited several times, with their most recent performance being in December 2025.
Drama Broke Out During The DK ‘Untold Tour’

While social media users flooded various forums with clips from the tour, which stopped in California, Connecticut, Michigan, New York, and other cities, the coverage was clouded by a bit of controversy.
According to The Blast, Richard was one of the two members not involved in the reunion tour; however, she said it wasn’t her choice.
“Even without being told about the reunion, I will always be a yes to Danity Kane,” she wrote online. “That chapter lives in me forever.”
The singer, who was also part of Diddy’s Dirty Money, opened up about allegedly being excluded from the tour, saying, “That’s a choice [they made], but I’m not going to go back and forth and be messy and call myself ‘the mother’ [of the group because I came up with the name]. I wish it could be all five of us.”
One Of The Group Members Got Sick During The Tour

Also, during the tour, O’Day made headlines after she was forced to sit out of one of the reunion show dates after falling ill. The singer was hospitalized after experiencing symptoms of “vertigo, fever, dizziness, migraine, chills,” and “vomiting all night.”
According to O’Day, her health took a decline after Netflix released its “Reckoning” docuseries, which focused on Diddy’s alleged crimes.
“Watching everything from Netflix unfold publicly, seeing parts of a world I only knew from inside my own limited lens, was like living it again, but this time with context and truth outside of me,” she said. I didn’t think it would traumatize me the way it did, but watching the pieces line up from a distance outside of myself has felt like my nervous system was reliving everything with more clarity than I ever even asked for.”
Diddy’s Team Claps Back At The Docuseries

The documentary, which featured never-before-seen footage of Diddy and focused on his criminal charges of racketeering and sex trafficking, was slammed by the rapper’s legal team, who dismissed the series as a “shameful hit piece.”
“Several of these stories have already been addressed in court filings, and others were never raised in any legal forum because they’re simply not true. The project was built around a one-sided narrative led by a publicly admitted adversary, and it repeats allegations without context, evidence, or verification,” the statement read.

Lori Loughlin’s Hairstylist Slams Wig Rumors Amid Makeover
Celebrity hair stylist David Robert Naumann is setting the record straight when it comes to Lori Loughlin’s dramatic new look.
After the Full House alum, 61, debuted a much shorter hairstyle on Thursday, April 16, Naumann, who is Loughlin’s hairstylist, shot down speculation that the new look was due to a wig.
“Cute but it’s a wig,” commented one follower on Us Weekly’s Instagram page on Friday, April 17. In response, Naumann clarified, “It’s not a wig. I’d know ;)”
Over on his own Instagram account, Naumann emphasized further that the actress had genuinely cut her traditionally long locks.
“Chop chop for Lori yesterday,” he wrote as he shared Us Weekly’s article about Loughlin’s dramatic transformation.
Loughlin looked unrecognizable when she stepped out rocking the freshly cropped bob with caramel highlights and thick curtain bangs.
The actress was attending the Los Angeles County Museum of Art Opening Gala for the David Geffen Galleries alongside her daughter Olivia Jade Giannulli when she turned heads with her fresh appearance.
Loughlin’s new look comes after news broke in October 2025 that she and husband Mossimo Giannulli had separated after nearly 28 years of marriage.

At the time, Loughlin’s rep told Us Weekly in a statement, “They are living apart now.” Her rep also added, “There are no legal proceedings underway.”
In addition to Olivia Jade, 26, the former couple also share daughter Isabella Rose, 27.
The actress and the fashion designer eloped in November 1997, a few days prior to Thanksgiving. (Loughlin was also previously married to Michael Burns from 1989 to 1996.)
“He’s my guy, he’s my person,” Loughlin said of Mossimo in February 2018 after 20 years of marriage.
She told Entertainment Tonight at the time that the key to their relationship was “communicating, it’s listening, it’s picking and choosing your battles. It’s being flexible, it’s all of that.”
Meanwhile, Loughlin’s career is flourishing and the actress returned to When Calls the Heart for the season 13 finale last month. She will return full-time to the Hallmark Channel series next season.
Loughlin originally starred on the show for six seasons, before Hallmark cut ties with her as part of the fallout connected to her college admissions scandal.
The network announced in December 2025 that Loughlin will reprise her role as Abigail Stanton in the upcoming season 14. While no official date has yet been announced, season 14 is expected to premiere in early 2027.

Sandra Bullock Defends AI’s Role In Hollywood
Sandra Bullock isn’t buying into Hollywood’s panic over artificial intelligence. Fresh off her appearance at CinemaCon 2026, the Oscar winner struck a surprisingly pragmatic tone when asked about the industry’s growing unease about AI.
Bullock suggested that rather than resist the technology, creatives should learn how to work alongside it. The actress even admitted she’s been quietly experimenting with AI herself, using it behind the scenes to better understand what many see as the future of filmmaking.
Sandra Bullock Pleads Case For AI
Bullock is taking a notably measured view of artificial intelligence as Hollywood continues to debate its growing influence.
Speaking at the CNBC Changemakers Summit alongside Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group Co-Chair and CEO Pam Abdy, the actress was shown examples of user-generated AI content inspired by her upcoming film “Practical Magic 2.”
Bullock was then asked how she felt about people using AI to create content with her image. While she said she had not personally seen the material, she made clear that she understands the technology is already here and believes the industry needs to find a way to engage with it rather than reject it outright.
“We have to lean into it. We have to use it in a really constructive and creative way, make it our friend,” she said, per CNBC.
Sandra Bullock Calls For Caution In Its Use

While Bullock is open to embracing artificial intelligence, she’s also making it clear that the technology comes with serious risks.
The debate over AI in Hollywood has only intensified in recent months, with groups like SAG-AFTRA pushing for stronger protections for actors and creatives. According to Variety, the union publicly criticized ByteDance after videos generated using its Seedance 2.0 tool surfaced online back in February.
Among the clips were fabricated scenes featuring Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise in a rooftop fight, as well as Sean Astin appearing as Samwise Gamgee from “The Lord of the Rings.”
Still, despite her relatively open stance, Bullock stressed that unchecked use of AI could quickly spiral.
“We have to be incredibly cautious and aware of it because there are people who will use it for evil and not good,” she said.
Pam Abdy Shares Sandra Bullock’s AI Outlook

Abdy echoed Bullock’s stance, making it clear she also sees potential in AI despite the concerns surrounding it.
Weighing in on the rise of fan-made, AI-generated trailers, Abdy said the industry can’t afford to ignore the technology, stressing that it must be approached with both curiosity and scrutiny.
She explained that the real conversation now centers on how AI can be used to enhance filmmaking and deliver added value to storytellers, rather than replace them.
“It’s evolving every single day. It’s moving very rapidly,” Abdy said. “[As] Sandra said, I just think we as a community have to acknowledge it, understand it, learn about it, and move forward.”

Bullock may have looked like an overnight social media sensation, but her explosive debut was anything but spontaneous.
After racking up more than 4 million followers in under 24 hours, the Oscar winner revealed during her CNBC chat that she had already been lurking behind the scenes, using social platforms privately to understand how they work.
Bullock admitted she initially didn’t see social media as something that suited her, but said her kids ultimately pushed her to take a closer look and figure it out.
“So, I’d been on social media,” she explained. “But, quietly. Just to learn and shop… I was very reticent.”
Sandra Bullock Gets Real About Motherhood And Work Balance

Bullock also opened up about motherhood, making it clear that her children remain her top priority, even as she continues to take on major film roles.
The Oscar winner revealed that her decision to star in “Practical Magic 2” came down to timing, explaining that she only committed once she knew it wouldn’t interfere with her kids’ schedule.
“I made this film at this time because I knew my kids were out of school,” she said. “I’m not going to sacrifice my time with my kids.”
Bullock emphasized that being present for her son Louis and daughter Laila directly impacts her ability to perform at her best.
“They’d be happy if I was gone. I would not,” she continued. “And I do not do my best work if my children are struggling or if they need something and I can’t facilitate it.”

This 2-Part Action Series Is the DC Comic Book Adaptation Fans Deserve To Know About
When the MCU was still in its infancy, before the DCEU came to fruition, and before DC comic book superhero shows were the norm, DC Entertainment and Warner Bros. Television produced one of the most underrated DC comic book shows of all time. We’re talking about Human Target, an excellent, yet sadly short-lived, series. Based on DC Comics’ Human Target, created by Len Wein and Carmine Infantino, the series starred Mark Valley as the show’s eponymous “Human Target,” aka Christopher Chance. Unfortunately, despite an incredible setup and an amazing first season, host network FOX and Warner Bros. Television cut the series short, forcing changes that upset the show’s dynamic and killed it. This explains how the most underrated DC comic book series never became the hit it should have been, and how it’s overdue for a streaming comeback.
‘Human Target’ Hit a Home Run in Its First Season
Human Target boasted an incredible ensemble in its first season, featuring Mark Valley as Chance, an undercover specialist and mercenary-for-hire. A now-reformed former assassin, Chance offers help to those in need, taking undercover assignments to become a veritable “Human Target,” placing himself in the line of fire for his clients. The incredible Chi McBride portrayed Chance’s stern partner, the ex-detective Laverne Winston. Plus, the series also featured Watchmen star Jackie Earle Haley as another former assassin and Chance’s friend, Guerrero. Along with some other recurring cast members, such as the memorable Lennie James as the brutal Baptiste, the cast’s dynamic was electric. Each week brought a new assignment and challenge for Chance.
Human Target came at an interesting time in the television landscape. Streaming was still in its infancy, but it came out post-Lost and post-24. Television was starting to get much bigger in scope and budget. However, it also debuted before the comic book superhero renaissance that started with shows like Arrow, The Flash, etc., on The CW, and later the Marvel Netflix shows. Human Target was based on a DC comic book, but it wasn’t a genuine “superhero” series. That said, the series did have a dynamic, pulpy comic-like style, incorporating inventive and creative action set pieces each week. In the pilot, Chance fights an assassin in a ventilation shaft. The second episode featured some unique action sequences aboard a commercial jetliner. All these factors helped elevate Human Target into one of the best television shows that, sadly, was criminally underrated and overlooked.
Season 2 Attempted To Fix What Wasn’t Broken
Unfortunately, Human Target’s second season was marred by various studio and network changes that worked to the show’s detriment. Matthew Miller became the new showrunner in Season 2, replacing series creator and executive producer Jonathan Steinberg. Basically, Miller saw fit to fix things that weren’t broken in an attempt to make the show funnier, sexier, and more like Miller’s previous hit series, Chuck. But Human Target wasn’t Chuck, nor did it portend to be Chuck at the outset.
The series brought on new cast members, Indira Varma and Janet Montgomery. Varma portrayed Ilsa Pucci, who served as a wealthy new benefactor for Christopher Chance and his team, while Montgomery portrayed Ames, a cunning thief and con artist who joins the team. Having a billionaire bankroll Chance’s operation took away from the first season’s more lower-tech aesthetic. It worked better when the group didn’t have unlimited funds and scrounged up what resources and favors they could. Varma and Montgomery are both talented, but their characters stuck out and didn’t come off as natural, organic additions to the cast. Also, Season 2 essentially abandoned all the storytelling and setup with The Old Man (Armand Assante), Chance’s adoptive father and former mentor, and Timothy Omundson as the nameless villain who appeared in the first season finale, and only briefly in Season 2.
The biggest offense entailed dropping Bear McCreary’s incredible orchestral score and music. Human Target featured a wonderful opening credit sequence and theme song that perfectly set the mood for Chance’s adventures. Miller dropped McCreary’s immaculate score in favor of cliché pop songs and needle drops. The opening credits also threw out McCreary’s music, replacing it with a sonic cacophony that sounded like an assault on the eardrums. Even Miller had enough integrity to eventually admit that replacing McCreary’s opening theme song was a mistake, telling Give Me My Remote in a 2011 interview, “In hindsight, if I could do it over again, I would not have changed the opening theme song. So there you have it: I made a mistake.”
The Legacy of ‘Human Target’
The fans who remember know Human Target was great and didn’t receive its fair shake, much like plenty of other great shows like Firefly and Terriers. It got two seasons, but it never became the huge hit that it should have due to studio interference and executive meddling, fixing things that didn’t need fixing and making changes that hurt the amazing framework that was set up in the first season, rather than allowing the changes to happen naturally.
Right now, Human Target is available for streaming, but through Roku’s Howdy streaming service. It really needs a proper streaming platform through Roku’s main channel, Netflix, HBO Max, Hulu, and/or Prime Video. That way, viewers can properly indulge in the show’s greatness and see how audiences were robbed of a television classic.
