More On Dawn Richard’s Sexual Assault Lawsuit Against Diddy

As The Shade Room previously reported, in September 2024, Dawn Richard filed a lawsuit against Diddy, accusing him of sexual abuse. In the suit, Richard reportedly referenced her time on ‘Making The Band,’ Diddy promised to advance her career in exchange for his verbal abuse, unfair working conditions, and an occasion where he allegedly appeared without underwear around her.

Furthermore, Richard alleged that Diddy touched her butt and breasts on a number of occasions.

Per TMZ, at the time, Diddy’s legal team reacted to the allegations as an “attempt to rewrite history.”

“If Ms. Richard had such a negative experience with ‘Making the Band’ and Danity Kane, she would not have chosen to continue working directly with Mr. Combs for Dirty Money, nor would she have returned for the ‘Making the Band’ reboot in 2020 or agreed to be featured on ‘The Love Album’ last year,” his attorney reportedly stated.

As The Shade Room previously reported, Diddy is currently incarcerated at federal prison FCI Fort Dix on transportation to engage in prostitution charges. Records indicate he will be released in February 2028.

Sherlock Holmes has been portrayed in just about any way imaginable these days. It’s fair to say you’ve watched a Sherlock story and spotted something before he has, too. There’s been a whole host of Sherlocks over the years since the character first emerged. Serious Sherlocks, eccentric ones, extremely rude ones, young ones, extremely old ones, garden gnomes, you name it. Sherlock’s appeal is evergreen, and now, his story looks set to be retold in new-to-screen adventures in an animated series from Harry King Television and Shrek producer David Lipman.

The new animated series is currently operating under the working title Animated Sherlock, which will draw from Sercombe’s The Unexpurgated Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, which should allow this to put a spin on Sherlock that people haven’t ever seen before. “Taking the animation route allows us to reimagine Sherlock Holmes on a grander, more imaginative and risqué scale than before,” Sercombe told Variety. “Having David, Michael, and Tim steering the series with us combines their legacy in animation with the well-loved classic IP.”

What Will the New ‘Sherlock Holmes’ Series Focus On?

As the series will have room to breathe, it should give us the opportunity to spend more time with, and learn a lot more about, other characters, including Dr. Watson, Baker Street landlady Mrs. Hudson and the criminal mastermind Professor Moriarty. “Together we are creating our very own Sherlock Holmes universe that feels both timeless and completely fresh – rich in character, humor, and adventure,” Sercombe added in his written statement. “We are creating our very own Sherlock Holmes universe that feels both timeless and completely fresh — rich in character, humor, and adventure.”

For those who want some Sherlock Holmes in the meantime, Young Sherlock is streaming on Prime Video. Stay tuned to Collider for more.

Frank Grillo and Tyrese Gibson face off with an evil corporation in a bleak future in the new cyberpunk thriller Kill Code. In the world of the film, the human body is just hardware that can be programmed to do the bidding of the rich and powerful, but even in this dark dystopia, there are those who fight back. Collider is proud to exclusively present the trailer for Kill Code, which will be released digitally on June 24.

In the dystopian future of Kill Code, America has been ravaged by the Second Civil War, and crime is a deadly pandemic; the rainy, neon-lit streets are dangerous to all who walk them. Alpire Industries CEO and scientist Eion Prescott (a silver-tressed Harvey Keitel) has the cure: the ONYX Program. AI-powered watches will be strapped to known criminals, which will inject them with nanobots loaded with a deadly computer virus: the kill code. It will force them to battle other criminals to the death, with the battered survivors earning redemption…and their lives. But Alpire won’t be satisfied until they’ve eliminated free will entirely. One cyber-enhanced Alpire operative (newcomer Franzi Schissler) has discovered the truth, and she’s hooked up with a ragtag resistance movement that might just win humanity’s freedom back.

Who Are the Stars of ‘Kill Code’?

Grillo is an action veteran, with roles in both the MCU, as Hydra operative Brock Rumlow, alias Crossbones, and the new DCU, as government agent Rick Flag Sr.; he will appear as the latter in the upcoming Man of Tomorrow. He also currently appears alongside Sylvester Stallone in the Paramount+ crime drama Tulsa King. Rapper and actor Tyrese Gibson has starred in two separate high-octane action franchises, as a regular in both the live-action Transformers films and as Roman Pearce in the Fast and Furious movies. He recently starred in the action horror comedy Vampires of the Velvet Lounge. Oscar-nominated actor Harvey Keitel’s appearances in the films of Martin Scorsese, including Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, and The Irishman, have established him as one of his generation’s foremost “tough guy” actors. He recently appeared in the actioner Hellfire alongside Stephen Lang.

Kill Code is written and directed by Justin Price (I Heart Robots), who also stars in the film. Formerly titled Hard Matter, it is distributed by Quiver Releasing; it was filmed on location in Mississippi. Kill Code will be released digitally on June 24. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.

A new detail has emerged in the breakup of Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO, shedding light on when their marriage officially ended.

As moving trucks were spotted outside the couple’s Tennessee home, court documents revealed the date they reportedly separated.

The development comes months after the pair publicly celebrated one another, making the latest chapter in their relationship all the more surprising for fans who followed their journey.

The timeline surrounding Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO’s split is becoming clearer. According to reports, the country music star filed for divorce in Tennessee on May 18, citing irreconcilable differences.

Court documents reportedly list May 9 as the date the couple separated, meaning the marriage ended just nine days before the filing.

The singer, whose real name is Jason Bradley DeFord, is seeking to formally end his marriage to Alisa DeFord, better known as Bunnie XO, after nearly a decade together.

Sources told TMZ that the decision was mutual and remains a private matter for the family.

Jelly Roll is being represented by Nashville attorney Rose Palermo, who has handled several high-profile divorce cases over the years.

While neither party has publicly commented on the filing, the revelation of the separation date offers a clearer picture of how quickly events unfolded behind the scenes.

Movers Arrive At The Tennessee Property

The latest development came when a moving truck was seen outside the couple’s home near Nashville.

Photographs showed boxes being carried out of the property, fueling speculation about the next phase of the separation.

It remains unclear whether Jelly Roll or Bunnie XO is leaving the residence. Neither has addressed the moving activity publicly, but the images added another layer to a breakup that has attracted significant attention.

The sighting arrived shortly after news of the divorce filing surfaced. For many fans, it marked the first visible sign that major changes were taking place in the couple’s personal lives.

The pair had largely kept details of their relationship private despite their public profiles, making the moving trucks a notable moment in an otherwise closely guarded situation.

Jelly Roll And Bunnie XO’s Last Public Appearance

The last time the couple appeared together publicly was on February 24 during a stop on Bunnie XO’s book tour.

Jelly Roll surprised attendees by showing up and performing for the sold-out crowd.

At the time, there was little indication that the marriage was approaching its final chapter. The appearance reflected the supportive dynamic that had often defined their relationship in the public eye.

Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO married in 2016 and frequently spoke about overcoming challenges together.

Their relationship endured difficult periods, and both were open about the effort required to make the marriage work.

Earlier this year, Bunnie reflected on those struggles while speaking with PEOPLE. She explained, “When you are with somebody for a long time, you are going to have to love them at their lowest. And I truly believe that true love is not about so much as accepting things that you shouldn’t, but I do think that everybody deserves a second chance.”

She continued, “Loving somebody at their lowest is one of the most beautiful things you can do, especially if they bloom and they blossom like my husband has.”

Those remarks now carry added weight given the couple’s decision to part ways months later.

Emotional Grammy Tribute Takes On New Meaning

One of the most memorable moments in the couple’s recent history came during the 2026 Grammy Awards.

While accepting the award for Best Contemporary Country Album for “Beautifully Broken,” Jelly Roll delivered an emotional tribute to his wife.

Standing onstage, he credited her with helping transform his life and supporting him through some of his darkest moments.

“I would have never changed my life without you. I’d have ended up dead or in jail. I’d have killed myself if it wasn’t for you and Jesus,” he said during his acceptance speech.

The heartfelt declaration drew praise at the time and became one of the ceremony’s most talked-about moments.

With news of the divorce now public, the speech has taken on a different significance for fans looking back on the couple’s journey.

Jelly Roll Continues Personal Challenges Amid Divorce

As his marriage comes to an end, Jelly Roll is also continuing a highly publicized battle with his health and fitness goals.

Over the last few years, the singer has undergone a remarkable weight-loss transformation. After once weighing more than 500 pounds, he slimmed down to 265 pounds by the time he appeared on the cover of Men’s Health last November.

Recently, however, he admitted that maintaining that progress had become difficult. In a YouTube video, he revealed that he stepped away from his strict routine during the holiday season and struggled to regain momentum after suffering an injury.

Reflecting on that period, Jelly Roll explained per the Daily Mail, “We hit the goal and it was right before the holidays, so I was like, ‘You know what man, I’ve been working hard for the last three years losing this weight, I’m going to enjoy the holidays.’”

He added, “I had a big Thanksgiving meal, I had a big birthday meal, I ate a big Christmas meal. Kinda got off the rails and I broke my collarbone… a few days before Christmas.”

As he navigates both personal and professional changes, the coming months are expected to mark a significant transition for the country star following the end of one of the most important relationships of his life.

Amanda Seyfried is opening up about the heavy backlash she received following her statements about the late Charlie Kirk.

The actress noted that she has had to hire extra security for her safety and that of her family, despite her repeated clarification of her statements. 

Kirk, the popular American political activist and entrepreneur, was assassinated in September 2025 by a rooftop sniper while speaking at a TPUSA event.

Following Kirk’s brutal murder, Seyfried responded to an Instagram post highlighting some of the late political activist’s most controversial statements. Her comment read, “He was hateful,” and it instantly resulted in a torrential rain of backlash from Kirk’s supporters. 

Speaking during a recent interview with GQ Magazine, the actress recalled the situation, noting that it was “crazy.” She revealed that the turn of events surprised her because she believes in voicing her opinion without sounding unkind. 

“A, I’m allowed to f-cking voice my feelings, and B, do it in a way that’s not unkind necessarily,” she said. Notably, the situation spiraled out of control so much that she started worrying about the safety of her family. 

Despite it all, Seyfried still stated that in the heat of the backlash, she still wanted her children to know that they can voice their opinion freely as long as they are “not harmful.” 

“And then all of a sudden I find myself with a f-cking bodyguard at the airport, and I’m like, ‘this is crazy,” she added.  

Amanda Seyfried Previously Cleared The Air On Her Statements

Following the backlash that stemmed from her initial comments about Kirk, Seyfried attempted to clear the air, insisting that while she said Kirk was hateful, she didn’t think his murder was justified.

She shared a post on Instagram urging her followers to “remember the nuance of humanity.” The Golden Globe award winner maintained that she can get angry about racism and misogyny and still “very much agree that Charlie Kirk’s murder was absolutely disturbing and deplorable,” per The Blast.

Seyfried concluded by reiterating that no one, including Kirk, deserved to experience such a gruesome death. She further added that at least everyone could agree that there were too many violent deaths and unnecessary shootings in the country.

Amanda Seyfried Insisted That Her Words Were Based On Reality

Months after clearing the air on her statements, Seyfried still found herself under scrutiny during an interview in December.

She insisted that she didn’t just call Kirk “hateful” out of the blue, but chose her words based on “actual reality.”

According to Seyfried, what she said was based on real quotes and footage from Kirk’s many interviews where he aired his famously controversial opinions, per The Blast.

The Actress Opened Up About The Positive Aspects Of Her OCD Diagnosis 

In addition to speaking about her controversial remarks, Seyfried also gave the public a peek into her life as someone living with OCD. 

Seyfried’s formal OCD diagnosis came when she was 19. While it may have seemed like a debilitating condition at the time, it actually helped the actress make better choices when she was younger.

As reported by The Blast, Seyfried revealed that due to her condition, she purposely avoided drugs, staying out too late, or drinking too much. Instead, she would find herself making social plans and canceling them at the last minute, choosing instead to stay within her comfort zone.

Amanda Seyfried Gave An Inside Look Into The Making Of Her Recent Film

Even as young Seyfried avoided drugs to stay in her comfort zone, she eventually made a name for herself in the film industry, going on to appear in many critically acclaimed projects.

In one of her most recent films, “The Testament of Ann Lee,” the actress was further pushed out of her comfort zone. 

She revealed that the movie “needed to be graphic,” requiring her to be exposed in some scenes. Although some might have presumed she was completely naked, Seyfried noted that she wore a “prosthetic butthole” as an extra precaution, according to The Blast.

Seyfried also opened up about the mental challenge of taking on such a role, saying that it was daunting.

However, she explained her reason for agreeing to challenge herself, noting that her artistic growth is largely driven by fear. As such, doing something that scares her helps her improve her acting skills and become a more creative person overall.

If you spend as much time trolling around Hulu and Tubi as I do, you’re bound to come across a few hidden gems from time to time. This was certainly the case for me when I stumbled across Self Reliance on Hulu last week. The film is a fun, screwball comedy written, directed, and starring New Girl‘s Jake Johnson. Fresh off that viewing experience, my algorithm detected that I was on some kind of Jake Johnson kick, and alerted me to another starring vehicle for the comedian which released two years earlier.

The second film in my unexpected double feature, Ride The Eagle, touts Johnson’s writing and performance, as directed by Australian filmmaker Trent O’Donnell. While I enjoyed both movies tremendously, I was shocked at just how similar they were. In fact, I’m now on the hunt for a third thematically identical Jake Johnson film, just to see if I can round off a perfect trilogy.

An Unassuming Double Feature

Let’s start from the beginning. On its face, the plot of Self Reliance has little in common with the plot of Ride The Eagle. The former centers on Johnson’s Tommy Walcott as he joins a high-stakes reality game show which is live-streamed to the darkest corners of the internet. Essentially, he’s in a snuff film where he’s being hunted by celebrity lookalikes at all times. The catch is, they can only attack him when he’s completely alone, so Tommy makes an effort to be surrounded by friends and strangers at all times.

Ride The Eagle, on the other hand, sees Johnson portraying a burnout percussionist by the name of Leif Reinhold, who is informed right at the start that his estranged mother has passed away. Leif’s mother abandoned him when he was a child, and the two never reconciled, but she has agreed to leave him a cabin in her will, so long as he follows a set of carefully laid instructions. Feeling conflicted about his tenuous relationship to his mom, Leif packs up his adorable, scene-stealing dog, and moves into the cabin as he begins working his way down the eccentric checklist.

Thematic Overlap

Here’s where the similarities begin. Both films feature Jake Johnson working out his issues with his parents. Leif’s strained relationship with his mother leaves him searching for meaning, and wondering if he should be grieving differently. In Self Reliance, a major plot element is the fact that Tommy’s dad abandoned him in his youth. At one point, Tommy’s dad returns to give him some words of advice, which places major strain on Tommy’s relationship to his sister, since she believes he’s suffering from delusions of grandeur.

The next major through line is JJ’s romantic relationships with women. Ride The Eagle features an absolutely electric performance from The Good Place‘s D’arcy Carden, as Leif’s ex girlfriend Audrey. Lief calls Audrey after his mom’s checklist commands him to rekindle his feelings for the “one who got away,” sparking a level of on-the-phone chemistry that made me blush like I was in a three-way call. In Self Reliance, this character is effectively split into two women, as Tommy sparks up a whirlwind romance with Anna Kendrick’s Maddy. Elsewhere in the film, he confronts his ex girlfriend Theresa about their recent break up, in a scene that feels way too real to be entirely fictional.

Back To Back, Or Over Time?

Finally, there’s the revolving cast of characters that fill out the world of each movie. Jake Johnson has a fun-loving, adorable sidekick in both films, who goes missing for a portion of the runtime only to reappear again later with little explanation. Both films feature Jake Johnson calling out to an uncaring onlooker about keeping his loved ones safe from harm, concluding with a threat of violence if his warning goes unheeded. And of course, both films conclude with JJ going after the girl, having unearthed a level of spontaneity and passion that was previously buried by trauma or listlessness.

I’m not making the argument that Jake Johnson is a one-trick pony here, but I do think it’s odd that these two films have so much in common. Personally, I’d give a slight edge to Ride The Eagle, if only for the knock-out performances of JK Simmons and Susan Sarandon. Despite their obvious similarities, I’d still wholeheartedly recommend both films, but maybe they should be viewed a few weeks apart, so they don’t blend together in your brain.

If you’re interested in checking this Jake Johnson double feature out for yourself, you can find Self Reliance on Hulu, and Ride The Eagle on Tubi. These are a great watch for anyone suffering New Girl withdrawals, or anyone who loves a concise, comedic character study set in a bizarre, offbeat world.

Speculation surrounding Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding has intensified after an unexpected comment from New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

While details about the couple’s plans have remained closely guarded for months, a brief remark during a public event sent fans and media outlets scrambling for answers.

The moment has also renewed interest in reports of secret preparations already underway behind the scenes.

The latest twist arrived during a press conference held ahead of New York City’s planned ticker-tape parade celebrating the New York Knicks’ NBA championship victory.

While discussing how the city was preparing for a packed calendar of major events, Mamdani appeared to casually reference the wedding that has become one of pop culture’s most talked-about mysteries.

“We are the biggest city in the country, we are used to big events and we are incredibly excited for this one [the World Cup],” Mamdani said per the Daily Mail.

He then added, “We know it coincides with the Knicks finals run. We know it coincides with July 4th, America 250, Taylor Swift’s wedding, all happening at the same time and we are so excited to welcome the world here.”

The comment immediately grabbed attention because neither Swift nor Kelce has publicly confirmed details about their wedding plans.

When reporters later asked whether he had received an invitation, Mamdani responded, “No,” before offering his well wishes and joking that he hoped the couple would have a “lovely wedding.”

He also joked that he would spend the occasion listening to Swift’s song “Only the Young” from Gracie Mansion.

Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Wedding Rumors Gain Momentum

For months, reports about the couple’s wedding have pointed to several possible locations, with rumors frequently changing as preparations reportedly moved forward.

However, Mamdani’s remarks have added fresh fuel to speculation that Madison Square Garden could ultimately host the ceremony.

Although there has been no official confirmation from Swift or Kelce, fans quickly interpreted the mayor’s comments as a sign that the long-running rumors may be closer to reality than many previously believed.

The possibility of the wedding taking place at one of the world’s most famous venues would certainly match the scale of an event expected to attract enormous public attention.

Since announcing their engagement last summer, the couple has remained largely private about the planning process, making every new detail a major talking point among fans.

Secret Stage Project Raises New Questions

Adding another layer of intrigue, recent reports suggest a large-scale production project connected to the wedding may already be underway.

According to TMZ, Swift has commissioned a custom stage that is currently being constructed at Rock Lititz in Pennsylvania.

The facility is well known in the entertainment industry as a rehearsal complex and stage production center for major touring artists.

The report claims that a “massive stage” is being assembled in a restricted area described as being “under lock and key with security guards patrolling the area.”

The facility also shares a connection to Swift’s touring history. Rock Lititz previously produced the towering video structures featured during her 2018 Reputation Stadium Tour.

While the exact purpose of the stage has not been publicly confirmed, the report has fueled further speculation about the scale of the upcoming celebration.
