Britney Spears Son Jayden Seen Driving Her Mercedes
Britney Spears has reportedly been leaning on family support following her recent DUI arrest.
This week, her son Jayden Federline was spotted visiting her and driving her Mercedes convertible after leaving her Thousand Oaks home.
The sighting comes as the pop icon navigates renewed scrutiny and reconnects with loved ones during a difficult moment.
Britney Spears’s Son Jayden Visits Her After Arrest

Britney Spears’ younger son, Jayden Federline, appeared to be spending time with his mother after her recent legal troubles.
The Daily Mail reported that the 19-year-old was seen leaving Britney’s Thousand Oaks mansion on Thursday while driving her Mercedes convertible.
Jayden looked serious as he pulled away from the property, marking one of several recent visits.
Observers also noticed that Jayden had changed up his look. During his Christmas visit months earlier, he had sported a more rugged appearance, but this time he was clean-shaven with a shorter haircut.
The visit suggests the singer may be turning to family support following her shocking DUI arrest earlier this month.
Jayden had already been spotted driving the same convertible over the weekend, indicating he may have been staying with his mother for several days.
Spears Turns To Family For Support

The sighting comes during a difficult period for Britney Spears, who has reportedly been reconnecting with family members after her arrest.
According to TMZ, her mother, Lynne Spears, reached out shortly after learning what had happened.
Sources claimed Lynne called her daughter as soon as the news broke, by which point Britney had already been released from custody.
Police reportedly stated that the singer was allegedly “under the influence of drugs and alcohol” when she was pulled over.
Family insiders also told the outlet that Spears spoke with both of her sons after returning home.
Jayden and his older brother, Sean Federline, 20, moved to Hawaii with their father, Kevin Federline, in 2023.
While Jayden has now visited his mother, it remains unclear if Sean has been able to stop by.
Sean reportedly missed a Christmas reunion with Spears last year due to work commitments in Louisiana.
Concerns Grow About Britney Spears’ Well-Being

Although Britney received a small bit of good news when authorities decided her mugshot did not meet the criteria for public release, concerns about her health and safety remain.
According to TMZ, the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office made the decision not to release the photo.
Despite that development, insiders say the situation surrounding the singer is serious.
One source told the Daily Mail that the incident has created circumstances that are now “life or death.”
Those close to the singer are reportedly hoping family connections will help stabilize the situation.
Britney’s Relationship With Her Mother Has Been Complicated

The renewed contact between Britney Spears and her mother comes after years of public tension between the two.
Family insiders said Lynne Spears wanted to make it clear she supports her daughter and is willing to help in any way needed. According to the sources, their conversation after the arrest was described as “positive” and “hopeful.”
However, the relationship between mother and daughter has been complicated for years.
A source previously told Page Six in September that “Their relationship is very fragile.”
That same source also said, “[Lynne] reaches out to Britney for the most part,” adding that the two “talk and text every few weeks.”
At the time, the insider claimed there were no immediate plans for the pair to reunite in person.
Their relationship reached a particularly painful moment in 2021, when Britney spoke publicly about her family during the fight to end her conservatorship.
“I will never get those years back,” Britney said, before claiming that her mother had “secretly ruined my life.”
Despite those harsh words, reports now suggest their relationship has been slowly improving.
According to TMZ’s family sources, the two have actually been on good terms since they reunited in May 2023.
Although they reportedly have not seen each other face-to-face in more than two years, the sources say they continue to speak regularly on the phone.
Britney Spears Finds Comfort In Time With Her Sons

Over the years, Britney has shared a particularly close bond with her two sons.
Jayden’s visit this week is not the first time he has traveled to see his mother. In December, Spears excitedly revealed that he came to visit her for Christmas.
At the time, she celebrated the reunion in a series of enthusiastic Instagram posts.
A source told PEOPLE Magazine that “Britney had a fun time celebrating Christmas with Jayden,” adding that it had “been such a special holiday” for the singer.
Sean was unable to join that gathering due to work obligations. However, he was reportedly able to spend the holiday with family members, including his aunt Jamie Lynn Spears and grandmother Lynne.
Britney shares both Sean and Jayden with her former husband, Kevin Federline. The couple married in 2004 before divorcing in 2007.

Shakira Shares Reaction To Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame Nomination
Over the years, Shakira has built a remarkable singing career, earning global recognition with chart-topping songs, record-breaking performances, and numerous awards. Now, the Colombian superstar has another milestone to celebrate after being nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, adding to her ever-growing list of achievements.
Shakira Says Being Nominated Feels ‘Surreal’

In February, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame announced the 17 nominees for the 2026 class. Some of the artists included in the list are Shakira, Phil Collins, Iron Maiden, Mariah Carey, Luther Vandross, and Jeff Buckley.
On March 12, AP News caught up with Shakira to talk about her ongoing Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour, her decades-long career, and her Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nomination.
The 49-year-old singer shared her elation, saying, “I feel really humbled and excited at the same time. It’s incredible to be nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and a little bit surreal as well.” She added that although she has “experimented” with different genres of music throughout the years, she started as a rock artist.
Shakira has released 12 studio albums since the start of her career in 1991, when she was just 15 years old. As she told the outlet, all her albums have rock songs. “That’s an intricate part of my artistic persona. And everything that I listen to is rock music,” she added.
The Singer Feels Like All Her Wishes Are Coming True

Shakira rose to fame in the late ’90s, but it wasn’t until the release of her first English-language album, “Laundry Service,” in 2001 that she achieved global recognition. Since then, she has released several chart-topping songs, including “Hips Don’t Lie,” Whenever, Wherever,” “Underneath Your Clothes,” and the 2010 FIFA World Cup anthem, “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa).”
After more than three decades in the music industry, Shakira said 2026 has been amazing so far. “I don’t know what’s going on. But this year, like, all my wishes are coming true, and I think this nomination is one of those things that you probably fantasize about sometime in your career but try not to get too fixated on it,” she said.
Shakira Is Proud To Represent The Latin Community
As of 2026, there are almost 400 key figures in the music industry who have been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame since its first induction class in 1986. According to reports, there are only a few inductees from the Latin community, including Carlos Santana, Richie Valens, and Linda Ronstadt.
If inducted, Shakira will make history as the first Colombian artist to join the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. “I feel very proud as a Latina… I think it might be the first time for a Latino woman, someone born and raised in Latin America,” she shared, adding that it’s an honor to be nominated, especially since she has been devoted to the rock genre since she was a teen.
The singer shared that she’s ecstatic for the Latin community. “I’m happy to feel that I’m representing a part of my community there,” she said.
Shakira’s Dream Performance

Shakira will be performing at the Pyramids of Giza on April 7, decades after she first performed in the same location in 2007. The singer will also be performing at a free concert on Copacabana Beach in May. As she said, visiting different cities around the globe has been exciting for her.
When asked about her dream location, Shakira mentioned Paris. “I’ve always thought it would be pretty crazy to sing at the Eiffel Tower or the Champs-Élysées in Paris. That would be like the ultimate concert as well.”
The singer shared that her accomplishments this year have energized her, adding that making and performing music has brought her “so much joy.”
Shakira Broke A Guinness World Record In January
Shakira holds several Guinness World Records, and in January, she added another one to her list. As previously reported by The Blast, the singer set the record for the highest-grossing tour by a Hispanic artist of all time, generating $421.6 million for the Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour.
Shakira was ecstatic about her achievement and thanked her fans, crediting them for their enthusiasm for her music. “I can only be grateful for the loyalty and passion of my fans, who give meaning to everything I do, and without them, none of this would be happening,” she said.

Demi Lovato Shares The Inspiration Behind Her New Cookbook
Singer and actress Demi Lovato is delving into the world of cooking. Ahead of the release of her new cookbook, Lovato is revealing how her journey with an eating disorder inspired the creation of her project, sharing the struggles she faced to overcome the challenge.
Demi Lovato Had A Complicated Relationship With Food

Lovato is releasing her first cookbook, “One Plate at a Time: Recipes for Finding Freedom with Food,” and in a conversation with People, the singer revealed the inspiration behind the project.
Lovato has been open about her struggles with an eating disorder in the past, and her relationship with food was a “complicated journey.” As she recalled, it was tough to be around food in the early stages of her recovery. “I was so overwhelmed by food that stepping into a grocery store would make me break down into tears,” the singer shared.
Her therapists suggested cooking to help in her recovery process, but it was challenging to do at first. Several years later, however, Lovato tried cooking with friends, and she had fun making spaghetti squash salad. “I actually stepped foot into the kitchen and had so much joy come from it, and I was proud of what I made,” she added.
The Singer Battled Bulimia

Lovato sought treatment for her eating disorder at 18, but her struggles began as early as 8 years old, as she shared in 2011. “I was compulsively overeating when I was eight years old. So I guess, for the past 10 years I’ve had a really unhealthy relationship with food,” she explained then, per ABC News.
According to the Mayo Clinic, bulimia nervosa is an eating disorder where the patient binge-eats and then purges their intake afterward by drinking laxatives or throwing up. Many who have bulimia are body-conscious, often focusing on what they see as flaws in their appearance.
In an interview with American Way in 2016, the singer opened up about her bulimia, sharing that her mother and grandmother struggled with it as well. As a toddler, she said it was difficult growing up around a person who struggled with bulimia.
Lovato became even more insecure as she entered beauty pageants, where she was judged for her appearance. That was when she began binge-eating.
Demi Lovato’s Recovery

In 2018, Lovato shared a photo of herself in a swimsuit on Instagram and talked about being insecure about her legs. “I’m posting it because I look so happy and this year I’ve decided I’m letting go of my perfectionism and embracing freedom from self-criticism,” she wrote.
The singer then said that overcoming her eating disorder was extremely challenging, but she was working toward “solid recovery” despite some missteps.
In 2024, Lovato sat down with Penn Badgley on “Podcrushed,” where she opened up about her ongoing recovery from her eating disorder. The singer said she had a treatment team that helps her stay on track with her recovery.
“I’m trying to learn body acceptance rather than body positivity, because body positivity feels like, ‘I can’t even reach that yet.’,” she explained, adding that she also has a therapist and nutritionist who specialize in eating disorders.
The Singer Made The Cookbook Accessible For New Cooks

Lovato told People her goal for the cookbook, which is to make it accessible to a certain group of people. “I wanted to create a cookbook that was for people who may have had disordered eating in the past or are just intimidated to step foot into the kitchen for the first time,” the singer said.
As she noted, the cookbook starts with basic recipes, which will help provide a foundation for more complicated ones. Moreover, the recipes only require simple ingredients and do not involve complicated cooking techniques. The book consists of more than 80 recipes, some of which include spaghetti bolognese, pulled pork, salads, tacos, and a cheeseburger.
When Is The Cookbook’s Release Date?
Lovato has been teasing her cookbook since 2025, and she has even tackled some recipes and shared them on Instagram. There are recipes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, as well as soups, salads, and desserts.
In addition, the cookbook features some photos from Lovato’s home life, as well as hacks, tips, tricks, and personal stories from the singer. “One Plate at a Time: Recipes for Finding Freedom with Food” will be available starting March 17.

Steve Carell Faces a Shocking Twist in Sneak Peek at HBO’s New ‘Shrinking’ Replacement [Exclusive]
After just one episode, Steve Carell’s Greg Russo is already well over his head in HBO’s Rooster. What started as a stopover in a quiet college town to talk about his titular beloved detective novel series, as well as a check-in with his daughter, quickly turned into an absolute mess of a time for the star author. In the show’s debut installment, audiences followed along with Greg as he tried to be a shoulder to cry on for his daughter Katie (Charly Clive) after she was left by her husband, Archie (Phil Dunster), for a grad student. But, things quickly took a turn for the criminal when, at the tail end of the episode, Katie tossed one of Archie’s prized literary collections into the fireplace and inadvertently (maybe!) burned down the house. Today, ahead of the second episode, which streams on HBO Max Sunday, March 15, Collider is excited to unveil a sneak peek of the fallout of last week’s dramatic ending.
Continuing to be a proud and supportive father, our sneak peek sees Greg standing in the living room of Katie’s home, where she’s allowing herself to feel her feelings on the couch with a Monster energy drink. The cops are waiting to talk to them, Greg explains to his adult child, who doesn’t seem to be the slightest bit alarmed that she could be charged with arson. Even with the implications surrounding her, Katie hardly raises an eyebrow, telling her dad that the case wouldn’t hold up in court before rolling off the couch and accompanying him to the police department.
The latest project to come from Scrubs, Shrinking, and Ted Lasso creator Bill Lawrence, Rooster has already marked itself as a standout hit for HBO. In addition to Carell, Dunster, and Clive, the primary ensemble includes the talents of Danielle Deadwyler (The Woman in the Yard), Lauren Tsai (Terrace House: Aloha State) and John C. McGinley (Scrubs), with additional supporting work done by Connie Britton (Friday Night Lights), Annie Mumolo (Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar), Scott MacArthur (The Mick) and Robby Hoffman (Hacks).
Eruption of Corruption: Flashing Back to The Shield — The Collider TV Quiz!
The Shield premiered on this date in 2002. Even if you never watched it, you might do better on this quiz than you think. The show changed television.
What Else Is Coming to HBO Max in 2026?
Already off to a terrific start with overnight favorites including Rooster, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, and DTF St. Louis, HBO Max has plenty to keep audiences entertained throughout the year. Just around the corner is the return of Lisa Kudrow’s cult-classic comedy, The Comeback, while further down the line, Euphoria Season 3 and The Gilded Age Season 4 will step into the spotlight.

Conan O’Brien Shares Rob Reiner Oscars Tribute Will Be ‘Very Powerful’
Conan O’Brien shared a glimpse into how late director Rob Reiner will be honored at this year’s Academy Awards, though he didn’t reveal any details. Each year, the Oscars pay tribute to those in the industry who have passed, celebrating their contributions to film and entertainment.
Conan O’Brien Did Not Disclose Details Of The Tribute

O’Brien, the host of the 2026 Academy Awards, is gearing up for the 2026 Oscars, which will take place on March 15. On March 11, Extra caught up with the comedian as he helped roll out the red carpet days ahead of the ceremony.
O’Brien was asked about the tribute to Reiner, to which he replied, “It would be hard to sum up in this environment… I think it would be inappropriate,” referring to the hectic scene with cameras, reporters, and people moving around. However, he did offer a bit of information, saying, “It’s gonna be a very powerful part of the show.”
The comedian and Reiner had been long-time friends, and O’Brien was one of the few people who last saw the director and his wife before their untimely deaths in December 2025.
Conan O’Brien’s Second Time Hosting The Oscars
This year’s Academy Awards will be O’Brien’s second time hosting. His hosting gig in last year’s ceremony garnered a high viewership, prompting his return to the Oscars stage.
The host started coming up with ideas a while ago and even started testing out jokes in comedy clubs. As he told Extra, he had “a lot of fun” hosting last year’s Oscars and wanted to do it again. “The movies this year have been insane. It was such a great year for movies that I’m excited to be even a small part of it,” he explained.
O’Brien teased that he and his team of writers have been working on “more ambitious” ideas for the show, and if it doesn’t land, he jokingly said he could just “skip town if I have to and lay low for a while.”
The Oscars In Memoriam Segment Will Be Longer

The Oscars started honoring deceased entertainment industry members at the Oscars in 1994, and as the producers shared, this year will have a longer segment.
Producer Katy Mullan told Variety that it has been “an incredibly tough year of losses,” and they are extending the segment to take the time in honoring each person. “So many titans have passed away, and there are so many people who care so deeply for a lot of the people we’ll be tributing and honoring,” she explained.
Apart from Reiner, others who have passed in the last year include Diane Keaton, Robert Duvall, Robert Redford, and Val Kilmer.
“It’s a chance for people to say goodbye. It’s a chance for them to see some of their favorite people one more time, and it’s a memory. We don’t take it lightly,” Mullan said.
Inside The Deaths Of Rob And Michele Reiner

On December 14, 2025, Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer, were found deceased in their Los Angeles home, riddled with stab wounds. Their son, Nick, was later arrested for the crime.
Less than 24 hours before the murders, the Reiners and Nick attended O’Brien’s holiday party. As previously reported by The Blast, Nick interacted with some celebrity guests and asked them strange questions.
Nick is currently being held without bail in a Los Angeles correctional facility. He was charged with two counts of first-degree murder and has pleaded not guilty. He is scheduled to go back in court on April 19.
Conan O’Brien Spoke Out About The Reiners

In a February interview with The New Yorker, O’Brien broke his silence on the deaths of his dear friends. The comedian said he and his wife were close to the Reiners, whom he described as “such lovely people.”
As for their passing, O’Brien had difficulty processing the bad news. “To have that experience of saying good night to somebody and having them leave and then find out the next day that they’re gone… I think I was in shock for quite a while afterward,” O’Brien said, adding that he had no words for what he felt.
In March, O’Brien also addressed the fact that his name was associated with Reiner and his wife’s deaths because they were last seen in public at his party. “Very simply, we had a party, we invited our really good friends, and then, the next day, this terrible thing happened,” he told The Hollywood Reporter.
The comedian said that whatever “difficulties” he experienced amid the reporting of his friends’ murders, it was nothing compared to the tragedy Reiner’s family is facing. “There’s only sadness that they’re gone,” he added.

20 Years Later, This Controversial Casting Choice Still Defines a Sci-Fi Masterpiece
With Peacock’s long-gestating Battlestar Galactica reboot no longer moving forward, it’s worth looking back at the version that actually worked. There are few better arguments for the merit of rebooting a television show than Ronald D. Moore’s acclaimed reimagining of the sci-fi franchise. While the original series of the same name from 1978 was certainly a fun, Star Wars-related space adventure, it retained little more than a cult following after being cancelled after its first season.
Compared with the original Battlestar Galactica, the rebooted series developed a far richer, more expansive universe that addressed modern themes, including the war on terror, political corruption, and fears of artificial intelligence. Best of all, the reboot series created new and dynamic characters that made it all the more compelling; there wasn’t another hero in Battlestar Galactica whose arc was more satisfying overall than Katee Sackhoff’s Lieutenant Kate Thrace.
Set in the distant future, Battlestar Galactica is centered on the crew of the titular spacecraft as it searches for a new home for mankind. The last established civilization of humanity, known as the Twelve Colonies, was destroyed in a critical attack by the Cylons, a malevolent group of man-made androids. While there is tension between the new President Laura Roslin (Mary McDonnell) and the military Commander William Adama (Edward James Olmos), the fleet is reliant on brave pilots like Thrace, who goes by the callsign “Starbuck.” The boldness of Sackhoff’s casting was very beneficial to Battlestar Galactica, ensuring its place among the greatest television dramas of all time.
Katee Sackhoff’s ‘Battlestar Galactica’ Casting Earned Backlash
Although Moore’s reboot drew some inspiration from the original 1978 series, the two shows were unique in their narrative complexity. While some characters were brought back and reinterpreted, they were only similar in name. The original Battlestar Galactica featured Dirk Benedict as Lieutenant Starbuck, a womanizing fighter pilot who could be compared to Harrison Ford’s Han Solo in the Star Wars franchise. Battlestar Galactica had already been hit with comparisons to George Lucas’ space opera; in order to differentiate the two, Moore decided that “making Starbuck a woman was a way of avoiding” what” he “felt would be ‘rogue pilot with a heart of gold’ cliché.’”
Many characters from the original Battlestar Galactica were radically changed from the original series; while the 1978 shows featured John Colicos as an entirely malevolent version of Gaius Baltar, James Callis turned the character into a somewhat sympathetic, far less competent anti-hero. However, Sackhoff’s casting was met with backlash from those who opposed the gender swapping of Starbuck. Benedict himself even chimed in, posting a tirade expressing his dismay that “Starbuck would go the way of most men in today’s society.” Unfortunately, Benedict’s opinion was shared by many of the show’s doubters; Sackhoff was booed during her first appearance promoting the show at the 2004 Comic Con in San Diego and even received some death threats prior to the show’s airing.
Although Moore was insistent that the gender swap was essential to distinguish the new series, Sackhoff wasn’t the first choice to play Starbuck. Moore revealed that the show’s producers were originally looking for an actress in her mid-30s who had a tough demeanor, as they wanted someone who had believable military experience. However, it was Sackhoff’s acting ability that ultimately won them over; Moore stated that Sackhoff “auditioned for the role along with many other actresses, and simply blew them all away,” admitting that they were “lucky” that she agreed to play the role.
Starbuck Became a Fan-Favorite Hero in ‘Battlestar Galactica’
Starbuck was quickly established as one of Battlestar Galactica’s most complex characters. Like many of the Galactica’s pilots, Starbuck is brave to a fault; she’s willing to put herself in danger for the sake of her crew and consistently goes on risky missions in an attempt to cheat death. While her hot-headed personality added energy to the series, there was a deeper reason for Starbuck’s erratic personality; she is still grieving the loss of Zak Adama (Tobias Mehler), her secret fiancé, as well as a pilot under her command whose death hangs over her. This speaks to Starbuck’s selflessness; although she isn’t as interested in the political machinations in the fleet, she is completely loyal to those who serve alongside her. Starbuck’s empathy becomes more powerful in later seasons that reveal her backstory as an abused child.
Starbuck’s relationship with the Adama family is among the show’s most profound dynamics; despite her involvement with Zak’s death, Kara begins to develop romantic feelings for his brother, Lee (Jamie Bamber). It’s a romance that’s doomed from the start, as both characters end up finding different romantic partners in the aftermath of the occupation by Cylon forces in the third season. However, their on-again, off-again affair indicated that the two couldn’t deny their feelings for each other; similarly, Bill Adama comes to view Starbuck as a daughter, giving her important guidance over the course of the series.
Katee Sackhoff’s Performance Succeeded Even When ‘Battlestar Galactica’ Didn’t
Despite the acclaim that the series received in its initial seasons, Battlestar Galactica declined in quality, significantly thwarting Starbuck’s story arc. Her romantic relationship with Samuel Anders (Michael Trucco) grew much more compelling, particularly upon the revelation that he was one of the “Final Five” Cylons hidden within the fleet. Unfortunately, Starbuck’s strange departure and miraculous recovery made for an uneven storyline that didn’t reflect her trajectory up until that point. Nonetheless, Sackhoff certainly committed to the material; her emotional performance almost made these strange plot twists tolerable.
While it could be said that Battlestar Galactica ended on a disappointing note, Sackhoff has since become an icon in multiple sci-fi franchises. After voicing the character Bo-Katan Kryze on Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Sackhoff was able to portray the live-action version in The Mandalorian’s second and third seasons. She also delivered a scene-stealing performance alongside Vin Diesel in the sci-fi sequel Riddick.
Battlestar Galactica is streaming on Prime Video in the U.S.

The First 5 Minutes Of One Piece Season 2 Is Peak Aura Farming
By Jonathan Klotz
| Published

If there’s one thing anime has always been able to do better than any other medium, it’s making new characters look like the most dangerous, most powerful, and above all, the coolest, part of the story. Aura farming is what it’s referred to when someone is intentionally trying to look like the coolest person in the room, but anime fans have known about it for years as simply “new character introduction.”
One Piece Season 2: Into the Grand Line keeps the anime trend alive with the introduction of Miss All Sunday and her effortless takedown of a group of Marines while oozing confidence. If you needed a visual as to what aura farming is, this is it.
One Piece Live Action Nails The Anime Character Intro Trope

Miss All Sunday is played by Lera Abova, in only her second series role after Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin, which in any other anime adaptation would be cause for alarm among fans. Someone with that little experience attempting to bring a fan-favorite character to life could be a disaster, and yet, Oda, creator of One Piece, selected the entire cast. He knew what he was doing. The character, powered by the Flower-Flower Devil Fruit, has the ability to spawn duplicates of her limbs on any other surface. Within 20 seconds, the live-action series lets her show what happens when this nightmarish power is unleashed.
Fittingly considering Abova’s background, Miss All Sunday treats the Marine-filled corridor as a fashion runway. Bright pink flower petals are a gorgeous harbinger of arms sprouting out of soldiers and forcing them to stab and shoot themselves, which again, is truly horrifying to think about. The thing is that One Piece makes it look so damn cool.
One Piece Gets The Little Things Right

For decades, the gold standard for live-action adaptations of powers that are super cool in print has been Nightcrawler (Alan Cumming) in the opening scene of X-2. The German mutant’s teleportation is on full display as he easily rips through the Secret Service and is only stopped from assassinating the President thanks to a lucky shot. The only part of his powers that can’t come across in that opening scene is the smell of brimstone.
The first season of One Piece is the greatest live-action anime adaptation of all time, and Season 2 is picking right up where it left off. Miss All Sunday’s introduction may seem like a small moment in the grand scheme of the series, but this is the type of sequence that makes the series feel like a live-action version of the anime and not another Dragonball Evolution. Getting the little things right, from Luffy’s infectious smile to the bizarre outfits of everyday citizens, and even the aura farming character introductions, has to be done to win over the fans of the original.

One Piece Season 2: Into the Grand Line has only been out for a few days now, and if you’re binging, you know there’s a lot more of Miss All Sunday to come, and anime/manga fans, well, they know the treat ahead in Season 3. If the series can nail Miss All Sunday’s introduction and powers like this, then how awesome will the Warlords of the Seven Seas be? Will the series even get to Blackbeard?
One Piece Season 2, streaming on Netflix, has raised the bar for anime fans, and all it took to prove it was one 60-second walk down a hallway.

Jelly Roll officially joined the Grand Ole Opry family this week and was inducted by his close friend and fellow Opry member Lainey Wilson. Craig Morgan, Leanne Morgan and ERNEST also helped Jelly Roll celebrate. In a full circle moment, Sheriff Daron Hall and Davidson County Juvenile Correctional Professional Yolanda Hockett were in attendance and were thanked from the stage by Jelly for their belief and guidance since he encountered both in his time serving at the juvenile center, as well as members from the Judge Dinkins Educational Center, who Jelly currently works with to support and empower undeserved youth. Jelly Roll was wearing a cross that belonged to Johnny Cash that was given to him by Cash’s son John Carter Cash.

Southern Hospitality’s Grace Lilly Arrested on Drug Charge
Southern Hospitality star Grace Lilly was arrested on a drug possession charge on Tuesday, March 10.
Online court records viewed by Us Weekly show that Lilly, 27, was booked in Charleston County, South Carolina, and charged with possession of a controlled substance. According to the South Carolina Judicial Branch, the charge is a misdemeanor offense in the state.
Lilly was bailed out on a personal recognizance bond set at $10,575.
The reality television star is due in court on May 1 for an initial appearance in connection with her arrest. A second appearance is set for August 21.
Us Weekly has reached out to Lilly and Bravo for comment.
Lilly’s latest run-in with the law comes after she was arrested for harassment in December 2025.
Us confirmed that Lilly was booked in Charleston on December 29 in connection with an arrest warrant for a second-degree harassment charge. She was pulled over at a gas station the previous day after allegedly changing lanes illegally.
Police said that Lilly had “happy pills” in her possession at the time of her arrest.
“Inside the purse, a small container with ‘Happy Pills’ imprinted on the top was located, which contained 12 circular white pills with a ‘P’ imprint on one side, and half of an oblong blue pill with no identifiable imprints,” said a police report. “When asked about the pills found inside the purse, the offender stated that the blue pill was Xanax and the white pills were birth control. The offender stated she had a prescription for the Xanax but did not have any proof of that information available at the time.”
According to the report, Lilly said she didn’t know the brand of the birth control. The pills were seized and sent for testing, with the incident being labeled on the police report as a “drugs/narcotics violation.”
Lilly has been a cast member on Southern Hospitality since it premiered in 2022. The show is a spinoff of longstanding Bravo hit Southern Charm and follows the staff of Leva Bonaparte’s Republic nightclub in Charleston. The show’s fourth season premiered March 4 and is currently airing on Bravo.
“We see them all around,” Lilly said of the Southern Charm cast in an exclusive interview with Us in December 2022. “They’ve all been really nice. I mean, the only person that’s been a little dismissive is Austen [Kroll], but whatever.”
