Roomies, Pudige has officially entered the chat after viral videos showed DreamDoll turning UP onstage with Usher during a recent stop on the ‘R&B’ tour. After their flirty moments at Streamer University, Pudgie made it clear he doesn’t play about his girl — and chile, he brought that SAME energy when he reached out to Usher about the viral performance.

Pudgie Had A Few Words For Usher After DreamDoll’s SPICY Stage Moment

Fans were RIGHT when they said Pudgie wouldn’t be too happy about DreamDoll getting spicy onstage with Usher during the ‘R&B’ tour. Shortly after clips of the moment started going viral, the streamer shared a screenshot of a DM he sent to Usher, letting him he definitely wasn’t rocking with the vibes. Pudgie said he felt disappointed watching Usher get frisky with Dream and felt even more disappointed that Dream didn’t turn him down. He also said the steamy performance had him ready to delete Usher’s music from his phone.

“I’m disappointed that my girl didn’t turn you down like that other girl did, and you told me I was your favorite streamer so I know you seen her in my clips that’s weird man and you know I love ya music but now I gotta delete it out my phone,” Pudgie wrote.

He wasn’t playing about removing Usher from his music catalog either! Pudgie slid into The Shade Room Teens’ comment section with an update on his Usher purge, writing, “I Deleted all His Music Yall ‼️‼️‼️‼️”

The Internet Cracks UP While Others Say Pudgie Ain’t Wrong!

Once The Shade Room Teens shared Pudgie’s DM to Usher, the comment section was flooded with reactions. Plenty of folks said Pudgie had a point, while others joked that he should be glad it was Usher and not Chris Brown.

DreamDoll had all eyes on her when she popped out with Usher during the ‘R&B’ tour. The singer serenaded her onstage as she lounged on a cozy bed in an all-black outfit. Fans in the crowd cheered as she put on a whole show with the singer. At one point, things reached another level when Usher picked Dream up, but just as he laid her back on the bed, the lights cut off. Peep the viral video HERE.

Carmen Electra has the fondest memories of filming “Baywatch” except for one thing!

The media personality expressed her willingness to be a part of the television show as it enters a reboot, adding that there is a part of her original experience she is willing to rewrite.

Carmen Electra joined the cast of “Baywatch” in 1997 for season 8 as Lani McKenzie after she broke into the scene modeling for “Playboy” in 1996. Her time on the show cemented her as one of the defining sex symbols of the 1990s.

The actress revealed that she was excited to learn that her on-screen love interest on the hit show, David Chokachi, is already returning for the reboot as Cody Madison. Electra affirmed that she would be more than excited to make a cameo and reunite with him.

Beneath all that excitement, however, is a yearning to alter one important part of her experience the first time she appeared on the series. The star revealed that she does not want to repeat the draining schooling schedule she had to combine with filming the first time she joined “Baywatch.”

She described going through the experience the first time as a difficult experience, adding that she recently found herself outside her comfort zone when she competed on the celebrity show “Nation’s Dumbest.” She admitted she initially had reservations about participating because she never considered herself particularly attentive in school. 

Eventually, producers talked her into it, assuring her it would be entertaining and telling her to think of it as a job in the acting world, but when she started shooting, the pressure began getting to her. Electra remembered feeling anxious and even frozen when contestants were required to think fast, answer questions on time, or do something unusual. 

She recalled to Fox News about making one mistake that stuck with her, which was forgetting what BBL meant. Electra was stunned that she missed what was supposed to be an easy question specifically chosen with the expectation that she would know the answer.

The Actress Recalled Stunts That Pushed Her To The Limit On The Hit Show

Electra, during an interview with PEOPLE in 2024, recalled confidently telling producers during her audition that she could swim; however, she soon realized that performing stunts in the pool was not the same as dealing with the ocean.

The actress joined the show as part of its rookie class, having to deal with producers bent on having the actors perform most of their stunts, which required intense preparation involving running, swimming, diving, and jumping into the water as the cast trained to portray lifeguards convincingly.

During these intense physical demands, Electra found herself struggling to keep up the pace as her male co-stars sometimes moved faster than she did, which forced directors to reposition and make it appear the reality star was keeping up.

The terrain also affected Electra’s balance, leaving her feet hurting from the sweltering heat. She also had to deal with the intimidating water sequence that went against her swimming and gymnastic background as a classical ballet performer.

Electra also never quite mastered keeping water from going up her nose while swimming. Despite that lingering struggle, she remembers successfully pulling off demanding stunts as some of the most rewarding moments of her time on the series.

Carmen Electra Revealed What She Expects From Men After Two Divorces

The television personality, despite her decades of experience with love and heartbreak, has maintained a very old-fashioned approach to dating. As noted by The Blast, Electra, after being married twice, also opened up about finding romance later in life, adding that relationships do not always work out as planned.

The media personality shared her perspective that when it came to dating, she still believes men must go on the offensive. Instead of directly approaching someone she finds attractive, she likes to signal her interest through playful body language and subtle flirting.

The “Baywatch” alum explained that she might walk past someone with a little extra confidence, sway her hips, or use eye contact to get their attention. After that, however, she generally leaves it up to the man to take things further.

For Electra, whether he follows through can also reveal how interested he really is, noting that the man will find a way to initiate a conversation or to ensure that she has his number.

Electra was briefly married to former NBA star Dennis Rodman in 1998 before the marriage was annulled months later. In 2003, she wed musician Dave Navarro, but their marriage ended four years later.

The 54-Year-Old Recalled Having To Defend Herself From Gold Digging Rumors During Marriage To Dennis Rodman

Electra looked back on her brief union with the NBA legend and how she found herself living life on the fast lane with unhealthy drinking habits and constant partying. As noted by The Blast, Electra confessed that her decision to marry Rodman was not taken on her best days, as his lifestyle became too much for her to handle.

She added that her entry into his life was also another major source of tension because the people working with him always felt she entered his life to go after his fortune. Electra pushed against the thought, insisting that she already had a career and her own money before the marriage.

By then, Electra had landed major opportunities with MTV and “Baywatch” and was supporting herself while living in a Beverly Hills condo she paid for. The actress said maintaining that independence has always been important to her and remains a philosophy she believes women should embrace.

Rodman and the actress famously eloped in Las Vegas in 1998 after a highly publicized romance that continued in a turbulent manner for several months until they officially ended the union the next April.

Electra has since revealed that picking up a self-help book after she disliked what she saw in the mirror gave her the courage to finally leave the athlete behind and walk away from the marriage.

Carmen Electra’s Romantic Past Is As Starry As Her Hollywood Career

The actress’s dating history in the industry over the years ranged from the biggest names in music, sports, and Hollywood, beginning with singer Prince in the early 1990s.

The List shared that Prince and Electra met when she auditioned for a girl group he was assembling, and while she did not get in, Prince did play a role in shaping her solo career.

He famously gave her the name “Carmen Electra,” and when the professional relationship became romantic, the actress’ refusal to follow him to Minnesota led to the demise of their romance. Following her failed marriage to Rodman, Electra tied the knot with Jane’s Addiction guitarist Navarro in 2003, and MTV covered the preparation.

The former couple divorced in 2006, but unlike her complicated relationship with Rodman, she has maintained a friendship with Navarro, famously sharing that their bond remains strong and she will always love him.

Electra has also been linked to several famous personalities like Tommy Lee, Fred Durst, Vin Diesel, Mark McGrath, David Spade, Colin Farrell, Joan Jett, Simon Cowell, Max George and Ryan Lochte.

However, in recent times, Electra has largely kept her romantic life away from the spotlight, with few people having knowledge about her endeavors.

Looks like Carmen Electra has drawn out the perfect map for her to have the most fun if the “Baywatch” reboot comes calling!

Later this year, in December, director Denis Villeneuve will conclude what will likely go down as one of the greatest sci-fi trilogies in decades with Dune: Part Three. Based on the seminal novels by Frank Herbert, the trilogy is headlined by Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya, with a star-studded supporting cast. The first two installments — Dune and Dune: Part Two — have grossed a combined total of more than $1 billion at the worldwide box office, even though the first part’s theatrical performance was undercut by a day-and-date streaming release. The two movies have received a total of 15 Oscar nominations, with Dune winning in six categories. This doesn’t typically happen with genre films, and the last time that the industry witnessed something like this was over two decades ago, with arguably the greatest fantasy trilogy ever made.

The series in question was filmed back-to-back and released one after the other between 2001 and 2003. Combined, the three movies generated nearly $3 billion at the worldwide box office and received near-universal acclaim. The third installment famously won in each of the 13 categories it was nominated for at the Oscars. The series starred Elijah Wood, Viggo Mortensen, Ian McKellen, and dozens of other actors in prominent roles.

‘The Lord of the Rings’ Franchise Is Returning to Live-Action

By now you’ve obviously guessed that we’re talking about Peter Jackson’s beloved The Lord of the Rings trilogy, which includes The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. All three movies were critically acclaimed, and are now sitting at “Certified Fresh” scores of 91%, 95%, and 94% on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes. Jackson returned to direct a trilogy of prequels based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit, but the new movies were generally viewed as inferior to the original trilogy. A new interquel, titled The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum, is currently in production with Andy Serkis at the helm.

The upcoming movie will be released in theaters next year, but the original trilogy is currently streaming in the United States on HBO Max, and surging on Disney+ globally in Canada, Belgium, Turkey, and more. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.

Prime Video subscribers have been treated to some of the finest streaming content so far in 2026. Legally Blonde fans finally got their prequel series with the debut of Elle; the ever-brilliant Sophie Turner turned in one of the most underrated performances of the year so far in Steal; The Summer I Turned Pretty fans received their latest must-watch small town romance in Every Year After; Guy Ritchie returned to TV with Young Sherlock; and Riz Ahmed delivered the best series on Prime Video this year so far with Bait.

But of all the shows so far released on Prime Video this year, none have proven more addictive than Off Campus. Based on a series of books by Elle Kennedy, and adapted for the screen by Louisa Levy, this steamy eight-episode series follows Ella Bright and Belmont Cameli as music major and hockey captain, Hannah and Garrett, as love begins to blossom in the fictional Briar University. The series was a big hit with critics and audiences, scoring 91% from the former and 88% from the latter on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes. Collider’s Therese Lacson agreed, describing the show in her review as “the perfect blend of sizzling romance and soapy drama.”

By reaching 36 million global viewers in its first 12 days of release, Off Campus became a surprise phenomenon and even ranked as Prime Video’s third most-watched series launch of all time, falling short of just The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power and Fallout. However, in the 18-34 age demographic, Off Campus is Prime Video’s biggest debut ever, even higher than The Summer I Turned Pretty​​​​​​. Almost three months since the finale premiered, Off Campus is still a major hit. At the time of writing, the series is the most-watched show on Prime Video in the world, outperforming the much newer hit Ride or Die.

Is ‘Off Campus’ Getting a Second Season?

No hit this big wouldn’t win a second season. Even before the first had aired, back in February, Off Campus ​​​​​​was greenlit for a second season. There will be a big shake-up for Season 2, as the romance between Allie Hayes (Mika Abdalla) and Dean Di Laurentis (Stephen Kalyn) takes center stage. Production is reportedly underway, although we still have no idea when Season 2 might debut.

Make sure to stay tuned to Collider for all the latest streaming stories.

Nevaeh Akira is reportedly about two weeks away from her due date for her son, Solar Porter. Rather than a calm last lap of her pregnancy, she recently took to the internet to weigh in on new, viral clips of her unborn child’s father, Blueface, and his on-and-off boo, Chrisean Rock. Despite repeatedly denying he is the father of Chrisean Jesus, Blue was on a livestream with the three-year-old son and his mother — all lying in bed together. The apparent family reunion comes amid Jaidyn Alexis calling Blueface a “disappointment” for allegedly not calling their daughter, Journey, on her fourth birthday just days ago.

Blueface Feeds Chrisean Rock’s Son As She Snoozes In Bed

Nevaeh Akira’s shade towards Chrisean Rock started with the viral clips of Blueface seemingly playing daddy to Chrisean Jesus. Before his death in Feb. 2025, Rock’s ex-boyfriend, Ronny Doe, alleged he was the biological dad of Rock’s son. It’s a claim Blueface has pushed several times, including this year. Chrisean has shut down that narrative, maintaining that Blueface is her son’s dad. Most recently, he even claimed she was the one who posted a photo on his profile claiming it was her son.

Despite Blueface’s consistent resistance to claiming CJ, he appeared cozy, feeding the three-year-old in bed during a livestream. More than 9,700 viewers were tuned in as Blue spoon-fed the toddler, who giggled, squealed and pulled away at times. Meanwhile, Chrisean Rock appeared to be in a deep sleep. Other clips show Chrisean Jesus seemingly laughing at cartoons on the TV while Blue used his phone next to him. Swipe below to see the mentioned footage. 

Nevaeh Akira Seemingly Slams Chrisean Rock Over Livestream

As the livestream footage of Blueface and both Chriseans picked up steam, his pregnant girlfriend hopped on a stream of her own. Speaking from inside their shared home, Nevaeh Akira appeared shocked when she received a phone call, allegedly about Blue’s whereabouts.

— Akademiks TV (@AkademiksTV) August 9, 2026

Later, during that same stream, she was seen speaking to a friend about the situation. Without naming Chrisean Rock, she expressed confusion about someone blasting Blueface as evil, but wanting to be in his face. Akira also popped off about being with her firstborn son, Superior, 24/7.

“I’m with mines 24/7, ain’t never put mines to the side. And if a n*gga ain’t claiming mine, I ain’t gliding with him, sliding with him, kissing him, touching him, f**king him none of that. You heard me? None of that,” Nevaeh Akira said.

Then, she responded to a live comment that said Blueface appears “genuinely happy” with Chrisean Rock. “He ain’t genuinely happy with a motherf**ker that he’s [pushing gesture] the whole f**king time to stay out the f**k camera view,” she said. Akira also questioned why she’s in the loop and his home. She added: “Let dirty and dirty have theyselves at this point ’cause it’s giving that.” In another clip, Akira appeared to call Chrisean Rock a hypocrite. 

“These h*es be hypocrites. B*tch he so evil, why the f**k you in his face? It don’t make sense to me,” she said, before telling her friend, “NoI’m talking ’bout a h*e that’s calling this n*gga evil 24/7 but stay in his face so homey. I’m tired of these b*tches.”

After her friend says that “b*tches are begging for their family back,” Akira agrees and laughs. Later, she acknowledges that her “baby daddy/man” might be treating her “like sh*t” but that’s it’s okay. “N*gga might wake up and treat me right one day,” she said. Adding:

“He just getting his rocks off while I’m pregnant. Cause b*tch imma be back, 2.0 bad b*tch. Hello, and a b*tch got potential, a b*tch just sitting down. Real quiet on the creek h*e. F*ck y’all.”

Another viral clip shows Nevaeh Akira pushing a box out of a room, but it’s unclear if it means she plans to move out.

Okay, so “perfect” is a big word to throw around for a whole list, and it does not mean that these movies have zero flaws if you go looking for them. They are here because, let’s be honest, watch any one of these and try to think of a single change that would actually make it better. You can’t, not really. Every choice, every weird creature design, every slow scene, is doing exactly what it’s supposed to be doing.

A few of these can easily show up on other lists and rightfully so they’re talked about a lot more. Some movies are genuinely great enough to earn a spot no matter what angle you’re ranking them from. So here they are, worst to best, ten fantasy movies that don’t really have a weak spot to poke at.

10

‘The Princess Bride’ (1987)

This movie is just endlessly quotable, and I think that’s actually the best sign a script is doing its job right. Westley (Cary Elwes) and Buttercup (Robin Wright) are the actual love story, but everyone remembers Inigo Montoya (Mandy Patinkin) and his whole “you killed my father, prepare to die” thing way more, because Rob Reiner and William Goldman clearly cared just as much about the side characters as the leads.

It flopped in theaters when it came out, which is wild to think about now, and only became the beloved thing it is once people started renting it on VHS and passing it around. It’s a swordfight movie, a comedy, and a genuine romance all at once, and none of those parts ever get in each other’s way.

9

‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ (2006)

Image via Warner Bros. Pictures

Guillermo del Toro built the Pale Man, one of the creepiest creatures in movie history, entirely as a practical suit worn by Doug Jones, no CGI doing its magic. That’s kind of the whole deal with this movie where every fantasy creature looks like it’s actually standing in the room with Ofelia, because it usually was.

It won three Oscars, for cinematography, makeup, and art direction, and all of those awards were well-deserved. The fantasy stuff and the real-world horror of fascist Spain sit right next to each other the entire runtime, and del Toro never once lets one half feel like it’s just decorating the other.

8

‘The Green Knight’ (2021)

David Lowery made a movie where almost nothing gets explained outright, and it works precisely because he never flinches from that choice. Dev Patel is at his best here yet again as he plays Gawain with real nervous energy, like a guy who knows he’s not ready for what he agreed to, and the whole thing is shot so beautifully you’d watch it with the sound off and still feel something.

Most movies this ambiguous end up frustrating people. This one earns the ambiguity, because every unanswered question feels intentional instead of lazy. That’s a hard needle to thread, and it’s a big part of why this belongs on a perfect list instead of just a good one.

7

‘The Wizard of Oz’ (1939)

Image via Warner Bros.

The Wizard of Oz is literally everyone’s childhood at this point. The moment Dorothy opens that door and the movie switches from black-and-white Kansas into full color Oz still gets me, and that was an insanely bold technical choice for 1939. Judy Garland carries the whole thing on “Over the Rainbow” alone, honestly.

They actually changed the slippers from silver, like in the book, to ruby red just because red popped better on the new Technicolor film. That’s such a small, practical decision, and it ended up becoming one of the most iconic images in movie history. Almost ninety years later, the effects still hold up in a way a lot of far more expensive fantasy movies don’t.

6

‘Princess Mononoke’ (1997)

Image via Studio Ghibli

Hayao Miyazaki’s team hand-drew something like 144,000 individual frames for this movie, without any shortcuts, and you can feel that effort in every single shot of the forest. San and Ashitaka don’t get a clean, easy love story either, which some people complain about, but that’s exactly why the movie earns its ending instead of just handing you one.

Nobody in this movie is fully good or fully evil, not even the woman literally destroying the forest, and Miyazaki trusts the audience enough to sit with that discomfort; he beautifully painted characters in the grey areas for them to be more realistic.

5

‘Spirited Away’ (2001)

Image via Studio Ghibli

This was the first anime to ever win the Oscar for Best Animated Feature, and it also broke Japan’s all-time box office record for years afterward, which tells you it wasn’t just critics who loved it. Chihiro’s world is packed with stuff like No-Face and the bathhouse spirits, and none of it feels like filler, every creature actually means something by the end.

Miyazaki apparently came up with the idea partly to make something for his friends’ daughters. There were kids who were bored of typical princess stories, and you can feel that specific care in how seriously the movie takes a ten-year-old’s fear and boredom and courage. It is one of the best children movies to exist.

4

‘The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring’ (2001)

Image via New Line Cinema

Peter Jackson shot this whole trilogy back to back in New Zealand with actual mountains and actual forests standing in for Middle-earth, and that groundedness is honestly why the fantasy stuff lands as hard as it does. The locations were real and that made it 100x better. The crew arranged a WETA Workshop built with real armor and real weapons the actors could actually move in, instead of a bunch of CGI.

This first one especially still gets me every time the Fellowship breaks apart at the end, Boromir’s death, Frodo and Sam heading off alone. It’s a long movie and it never once feels like it’s just killing time waiting to get somewhere. The trilogy is the best one to exist and every movie in its feather is just better than the other one.

3

‘The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers’ (2002)

Image via New Line Cinema

Gollum is the reason this one belongs on a perfect list, honestly. Andy Serkis did full motion-capture performance work for a character that’s mostly just eyes and a voice, and he still made Gollum feel more human, more genuinely torn apart inside, than most fully CGI characters manage today.

Helm’s Deep took months to film and it shows, since it’s still one of the best battle sequences ever put on screen. There was no shaky-cam nonsense hiding bad choreography, and everything was just so beautifully flowing that it genuinely felt like a wholesome cinematic experience. This is the middle chapter of a trilogy, technically the hardest one to make work on its own, and it still holds together completely.

2

‘The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King’ (2003)

Image via New Line Cinema

This movie won eleven Oscars, every single category it was nominated for, which basically never happens, and it earned every one of them. The Battle of Pelennor Fields alone probably took more actual planning than most entire movies get, which is why for most people this one is the best movie in the trilogy.

What really gets me about this one is how much time it spends on the ending after the ending, Frodo coming home and not being able to feel okay again, the Grey Haven, etc. Most trilogies would’ve just cut to credits after the ring gets destroyed. This one trusts you to sit with what the war actually cost everyone first and probably that’s why it still lingers on the minds of viewers.

1

‘The Dark Crystal’ (1982)

Every single character in this movie is a puppet, hand-built and operated by Jim Henson’s team, and there’s not a frame of CGI anywhere near it because it came out in 1982, before that was even an option. Brian Froud designed the Skeksis and the Mystics, and they’re still genuinely unsettling to look at, way darker than anything you’d expect from the Muppets guy.

It’s a kids’ movie that never once talks down to kids, dark tone and all. Jen and Kira’s whole quest has real stakes and danger, and the fact that it still is talked about as one of the most fully realized fantasy worlds ever built, entirely by hand, is why it takes the top spot here.

Toni shared two new photos that appear to capture her wedding day, posing solo in a gorgeous embroidered white wedding gown with her veil pulled back. The singer kept the glam elegant with French-tip nails, sparkling stud earrings, a flawless face beat, and her hair styled in a sleek middle-part updo. And of course, that HUGE diamond ring was front and center, giving all the “I’m a wife” energy as she celebrated the milestone.

Toni Is Giving “Two Years Of Bliss”

Alongside the never-before-seen snaps, Toni captioned the post, “Celebrating two years of bliss. Happy Anniversary 🤍” as she reflected on the couple’s second year of marriage. The intimate photos offer fans another glimpse at the singer’s special day, with Toni keeping the focus on herself and her bridal moment as she commemorates the anniversary.

Toni & Birdman’s Romance Has Been A Whole Journey

Toni Braxton and Bryan “Birdman” Williams’ love story has had folks doing double takes for years. During an exclusive chat with the ‘Today Show,’ Toni opened up about their relationship, revealing that the two had been friends for more than 25 years before their friendship eventually turned into a “love connection.” The couple reportedly tied the knot in August 2024, and Toni recently reflected on their anniversary getaway, sharing that they slipped away to a private spot they use when they want to unplug from the world.

The pair’s relationship had been surrounded by marriage rumors before Toni eventually confirmed Birdman was her husband. On August 8, 2025, she shared a photo of a white floral bouquet alongside her massive diamond ring, captioning it simply, “Happy Anniversary.” The post came after TMZ reported that the couple privately married in 2024 and that Toni had filed for divorce just two days later, but despite the eyebrow-raising report, the couple made it to their first anniversary — and Toni is now celebrating year two.

It’s Zendaya‘s world, and we’re all just living in it. The hugely talented Hollywood star has already reprised the role of Rue in one of the biggest streaming hits of the year so far, Euphoria, before featuring in the two most high-profile films of this summer. Alongside Jon Bernthal and Tom Holland, Zendaya has starred in both Christopher Nolan‘s ambitious adaptation of Homer‘s historical epic The Odyssey and Spider-Man: Brand New Day.

The former broke several box office records, including earning Nolan’s biggest opening weekend, as it sailed towards the billion-dollar mark at the box office. The latter, however, blew The Odyssey out of the water by not only earning the biggest opening weekend in domestic box office history but also becoming the second-fastest film to $1 billion worldwide. It is frankly remarkable then that the best Zendaya performance of 2026 so far doesn’t come in any of these projects.

Zendaya’s best performance so far came opposite her The Odyssey castmate Robert Pattinson in The Drama, the clever, twisting tale of a couple on the verge of getting married whose relationship is turned upside down when one reveals a dark secret. Excruciatingly brilliant from start to finish, The Drama is one of the true gems of 2026, and matched its critical success with over $100 million at the global box office. Four months after it debuted in theaters, The Drama is a streaming hit again, officially ranking as one of the ten most-streamed movies on Prime Video in the world.

Zendaya Still Has Another Major Movie to Come This Year

Just when 2026 couldn’t get any better for Zendaya, she is set to feature as part of the year’s biggest sci-fi movie. Released on the same day as Avengers: Doomsday, Zendaya will reprise her role as Chani in Dune: Part Three, the final installment in Denis Villeneuve‘s acclaimed adaptation of Frank Herbert‘s Dune novels. Zendaya is one of many fan-favorite faces in this epic third chapter, including Timothée Chalamet as Paul Atreides, Javier Bardem as Stilgar, Rebecca Ferguson as Lady Jessica, Anya Taylor-Joy as Alia Atreides, Florence Pugh as Princess Irulan, and Jason Momoa as Hayt.

The Drama is one of the most-watched movies on Prime Video in the world. Make sure to stay tuned to Collider for all the latest streaming stories.

Roommates, it looks like Latto is staying unbothered after Charleston White hopped in his bag AGAIN! Charleston recently dropped a video claiming he controls the algorithm now after Big Mama chose to drag him online for speaking on her relationship with 21 Savage.

Charleston White Hops Back In His Bag & Latto Keeps Serving Face

Recently, videos surfaced of Latto riding around in a whip while serving face. Big Mama rocked a fresh, soft-glam look with her blonde hair pulled back. She kept the accessories simple with gold jewelry and completed the look with an all-black fit featuring a vest and wide-leg pants. In the caption, Latto told fans she was “on the way to church” while lip-syncing along to Tamia’s ‘So Into You.’ Big Mama’s video comes shortly after Charleston White spun the block on his previous comments about her relationship with 21 Savage. White doubled own on his stance, claiming he controls the algorithm because, according to him, “everybody listens” when he speaks.

Charleston White wasn’t done after riling up Latto with his comments about her relationship 21 Savage. He continued to argue that folks give Latto a pass for being with 21, who is allegedly a married man, while Claressa Shields continues to get dragged for being with Papoose, who reportedly remains married to Remy Ma. Charleston also doubled down on his colorism argument, saying he believes the reaction would look completely different if Claressa were a light-skinned woman. He said folks would be real quiet on the creek and Claressa wouldn’t catch nearly as much shade.

In a new video, Charleston doubled down on his previous statements and claimed he controls the algorithm because he got Latto to respond after he accused her of playing house with a married man. He said he hit “checkmate” because his ultimate goal involved getting Claressa into the algorithm and getting people to talk about colorism. Charleston called his approach “provoking thought and evoking emotions” before continuing to cut UP. he added that when it comes to doing exactly that “nobody could ever beat him” because he considers himself the master of it.”

Joe, 40, underwent surgery last week after doctors found a tumor in his brain.

“They got it all!” Joe wrote via Instagram on Thursday, August 6, alongside a slew of post-op selfies from the hospital.

Serena, 28, had stayed by her husband’s side throughout his hospitalization.

“The best update: they were able to remove the entire tumor,” she gushed via her Instagram Stories later on Thursday. “Joe is recovering really well. We’re feeling so grateful.”

Joe, who met Serena on season 7 of Bachelor in Paradise, revealed his diagnosis last month.

“So a little medical update. I didn’t share my Prenuvo [full body scan] results because they ended up finding a lesion in my brain,” Joe said in a July video shared via Instagram. “Then, I had to go get a brain MRI and there was a blueberry size lesion in my brain that looks to be a glioma, which is a tumor. I now need to get brain surgery next week to get it removed and get it tested.”

The former grocery store owner continued, “And then we’re going to go from there. So it’s been a wild couple weeks. I definitely wasn’t expecting this. I think it’s one of those things where you’re like, ‘Oh, something like this will never happen to me.’ And here I am.”

Joe further noted that the tumor was in the “really early stages” and physicians were hopeful about removing the entirety of it.

Joe Amabile is recovering after undergoing brain surgery. “They got it all!” Joe, 40, jubilantly wrote via Instagram on Thursday, August, 6, alongside several post-op photos. In one snap, the Bachelor in Paradise alum flashed a peace sign to the camera. Amabile’s wife, Serena Pitt, held his hand in a follow-up image shared to her […]

“This past month has been a lot of ups and downs to say the least. After multiple scans and MRIs I have what looks to be an early stage brain tumor,” Joe captioned his upload at the time. “In two weeks I’ll be undergoing a craniotomy to have it removed — yeah brain surgery — @memorialsloankettering. I’m doing my best to stay positive during this time and am lucky to have a lot of support from family and friends.”

Days later, Joe addressed his decision to have brain surgery on an episode of the couple’s “Not Married to This” podcast.

“It was, we’ll never know what this is by just monitoring it. We will only know by taking it out or or biopsying it,” Joe acknowledged. “And from my understanding, they only do biopsies in the brain if removing it is very dangerous. But where mine is located, it seems like it’s a less dangerous scale to remove it. I mean, the surgery is very dangerous. [A] craniotomy … is scary. It’s a serious surgery.”
