Thugger’s Post After Lil Durk’s Verdict Has Fans Asking Questions

Young Thug’s near-fall isn’t the only thing that has the TL talking. Shortly after a jury found Lil Durk not guilty in his trial on Friday, September 11, Thug came through with a few messages on X. Fans immediately started side-eyeing Thug’s posts, with some wondering if he was hinting that he somehow played a role in Durk’s legal win. In one post, Thug wrote, “Thank me later.” In another message, he added, “Tell smurk to say something if I’m lying #Freesmurkio.” Then, Thugger brought up his lawyer Brian Steel, whom Durk also hired for his own trial, writing, “I didn’t have to pay lol Brian does whatever I say on face ask Smurk.”

Orville Peck is returning to the music scene in just a few days with his brand-new album, “Mule.” In a new interview, the country music singer, known for wearing a mask and hiding his face from the public, said his upcoming batch of songs will be more “vulnerable” than ever. Peck, 38, also said he hopes the music will impact two communities close to his heart.

Peck, an openly gay man, told PEOPLE that he’s seen many queer people turn to drugs or other substances to cope with hardships, and it was a topic he wanted to write about on his new album.

“I hope that having an album that talks about it with openness and humor, as only a queer person probably could, about their hurt, opens a bit more awareness… not just for people going through addiction, but also people who have friends who are partying too much,” he said.

According to Peck, those in the queer community have gotten used to hiding how they really feel, likening it to being in “survival” mode. That reality, Peck said, is exactly why it’s “more important” to stay connected to family and friends.

Orville Peck Wants To Inspire Two Communities With His New Album

Peck added that his new album isn’t just about feeling good; it’s about inspiring a “discerning courage” in the LGBTQ+ community and those in addiction recovery to feel better about sharing their feelings with each other.

“We have to become more attuned to noticing when someone is screaming out for help,” he said. “And we need to be better about feeling okay to reach out to the people we care about.”

For Peck, releasing this new album, which he challenged himself to be brutally honest on, is both “scary” and “freeing,” he said. However, to start a movement, one must lead by example.

“I always try to be vulnerable, but with Mule I tried to be as blatant as I could about what I was going through and not present that in metaphors or poetry,” he shared. “I usually leave it up for interpretation, but this time I wanted to call it what it is.”

Orville Peck Recalls Being A ‘Bad Addict’

This isn’t the first time Peck has spoken candidly about personal challenges. In 2023, the “PONY” singer postponed his tour and admitted to dealing with mental health struggles.

In a 2026 interview, Peck opened up even more about that moment and said it was caused by his addiction to alcohol, according to The Blast.

“I was a bad addict, a coping alcoholic,” he shared. “And I had this spiral moment, where I went back to my hotel and tried to take my life. It was a big turning point for me, with a lot of realizations to come. It was something that needed to happen.”

4

Peck isn’t the only celebrity in the queer community who has used their platform to spotlight serious concerns. “White Lotus” actor Lukas Gage previously spoke with The Blast about his book, “I Wrote This For Attention,” and said he wanted to inspire people with his own story.

“The message that I share throughout the book is that the little boy who was desperate for attention and love and validation became a man who was also a little bit desperate for love and validation and attention,” he said. “I try to share how that manifested. And I try to put a different spin on our innate human need for attention, our desire to be seen, and show how you can do that in a positive way instead of only being seen for negative attention.”

Gage Also Wanted To Shed More Light On A Helpful Resource

4

In addition to talking about mental health, Gage said he also wanted to highlight the importance of PrEP in the queer community.

PrEP, a once-daily pill, can reduce the risk of getting HIV from sex by about 99% when taken as prescribed, according to medical professionals.

“I think that the way that we become knowledgeable is to have an open conversation about these things and to not live in fear and uncertainty,” he told The Blast. “The way that we just bring awareness is that we step away from the taboo and from the stigma that we have wrapped around these topics.”

Joey King stepped into a role Evan Rachel Wood had played as a child, but the recasting came with a history that followed the new “Practical Magic 2” star to its Los Angeles premiere.

Wood had spoken publicly about her absence from the sequel. King has now revealed that she reached out to the actress, and they had a “lovely conversation.”

Joey King Revealed A ‘Lovely Conversation’ With Evan Rachel Wood

5

Months ago, Wood, who starred in the first installment, caused controversy with comments about not being asked to return for the sequel.

Now, King, who replaced her, has revealed that she reached out to Wood, seemingly to address the situation. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, King said they had a “lovely conversation.”

Although she did not reveal the exact details of the talk, King said she appreciated Wood’s kind words and the exchange.

Joey King Called Wood ‘Talented’

5

When Wood played the role in 1998, she was just 11, making her one of the younger members of the cast. She played Kylie Owens, the daughter of Sally Owens, who was played by Sandra Bullock.

While “Practical Magic” wasn’t a big hit with critics at the time, Wood’s role still resonated deeply with King, who sought to make that clear in an interview with the outlet.

“She is so talented and so beautiful, and she made this role so special when she was a young girl,” King said of Wood. “I feel so grateful to be able to play Kylie at this age.”

Wood Said King Was The Only One Who Reached Out

5

King’s claim about reaching out to Wood was confirmed by the veteran actress in a post on her Instagram Stories.

The confirmation also seemed to include a subtle dig at the other cast members Wood originally shared the set with.

“I really appreciated Joey King reaching out to me, because no one who worked on the original film did,” Wood wrote before calling King a “sweetheart.”

At the moment, none of the other stars have responded to King’s claims and seem to be more focused on promoting the film.

Director Susanne Bier Explained Why The Daughters Were Recast

5

Interestingly, Wood and original actress Alexandra Artrip were the only main cast members from the first installment who did not return for the sequel.

The change sparked controversy among fans, but director Susanne Bier quickly addressed it. She said King and Maisie Williams were chosen as replacements because they needed to fit a particular stage of their lives in “Practical Magic 2.”

According to her, the characters were “literally out of college,” a stage of life that did not match the original actresses’ ages.

Wood Initially Revealed That She Offered Her Services For The Sequel

5

Previously, Wood said she was interested in returning for the sequel, but the showrunners turned her down.

“I am getting asked about this a lot, so I’ll just clear it up now; I was not asked to come back and be in the Practical Magic sequel,” Wood wrote last year on Instagram. “I offered my services, even if it was one scene or one line. I was told they are recasting. I am sorry to disappoint the fans. It was not in my control or my choice. I would have happily rejoined my sisters.”

In July, however, she seemed to accept the showrunners’ decision not to bring her back.

“I read the book, and it seems like they’re not following the book,” she told Entertainment Tonight at the time.

“I think in the book it would have made sense to bring me back; I think in the way they’re redoing it and approaching it, it didn’t make sense,” she also noted.

The current Netflix charts are dominated by the long-awaited return of a global hit crime series. A follow-up to the hugely popular 2019 movie of the same name, The Gentlemen has retaken its crown as the most-watched show on Netflix, following its hugely successful debut season in 2024. However, the first season’s 12.2 million views recorded during its first few days on streaming were a bar far too high for Season 2, which has only earned 6.7 million views in the same period, marking a drop-off of 45% between seasons.

Nevertheless, Fuze‘s Theo James and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales alum Kaya Scodelario‘s return as Eddie Horniman and Susie Glass has stolen the streaming spotlight, currently outperforming all competitors on Netflix and knocking former favorites down the charts. One series to have been affected by The Gentlemen‘s arrival is Outer Banks, which returned for its fifth and final season on August 20, following the devastating events in Morocco.

This examination of the class system through a sepia-toned teen lens has proven hugely popular since it first aired in 2020. But for John B (Chase Stokes), Sarah (Madelyn Cline), Kiara (Madison Bailey), Pope (Jonathan Daviss), and Cleo (Carlacia Grant), the story has now come to an end, and did so in poignant fashion. Three weeks since it aired, Outer Banks is still clinging to its place in the global top ten, currently ranking as the ninth-most-watched series in the world. The fifth season premiere debuted with 9.4 million views in its first four days, which translated into 80.6 million hours watched.

What Else Is Currently Popular on Netflix?

With The Gentlemen topping the charts and Outer Banks placing ninth, you might be wondering what other shows are currently proving popular on Netflix worldwide. The true-crime docuseries Death of the Pastor’s Wife is currently the closest competitor to The Gentlemen in second place, with other shows drawing a big audience, including Beauty in Black, Lovesick, and Mousetrap. The title of most popular movie worldwide goes to The Whisper Man, the new critically panned crime thriller starring Robert De Niro, Adam Scott, and Michelle Monaghan.

Outer Banks is available to stream in full now. Stay tuned to Collider for all the latest streaming stories.

Taylor Swift’s latest date night look has Us crushing on chocolate brown all over again. Her chic textured bag style brought the right amount of fall to an otherwise glitzy outfit, but at $1,520 (and currently sold out) it’s not exactly an easy ‘add to cart.’ Thankfully, getting the look doesn’t require a pop star budget!

Swift was spotted out with Travis Kelce in New York City on September 6, 2026, wearing a cascading metallic halter gown with rose gold Aquazzura heels. She finished the look with the scale-embossed Stella McCartney bucket bag in a decadent chocolate brown shade — and we found a spot-on $34 Amazon lookalike that channels the luxe feel for less.

Get the Nicole & Doris Small Crocodile Bucket Bag for $36 at Amazon! Please note, prices are accurate as of the publishing date but are subject to change.

The Nicole & Doris Small Crocodile Bucket Bag has all the details that made Swift’s designer pick catch our eye in the first place. A glossy croc-embossed finish gives it an expensive-looking texture, while the petite bucket silhouette and curved top handle add a polished, lady-like touch. At first glance, we’d never guess it was an Amazon find.

While it’s small enough for date night, you don’t have to leave half your essentials at home. Three separate compartments give your phone, wallet, keys and lipstick their own spots, while the included crossbody strap lets you go hands-free when needed. The waterproof PU leather is another win for those unpredictable fall days when rain decides to crash the plans.

Swift paired her brown bag with plenty of sparkle, but we can already think of a dozen other ways to wear the shade this season. Try it with a cream sweater and dark-wash jeans for brunch, a burgundy knit dress for dinner or a suede jacket and boots for a full-on fall moment. The deep neutral adds a rich-looking finishing touch without making an outfit feel overly dressed up.

With chocolate brown shaping up to be one of fall’s chicest color trends, this is one accessory that won’t have trouble earning its keep. Carry it for date night, weekend plans or whenever your outfit could use a little extra polish — all while channeling Swift’s look for a fraction of the price.

Chad Powers Season 2 featured a surprise cameo from Johnny Depp, and actor Glen Powell has now revealed how it came together.

Powell plays the lead role of quarterback Russ Holliday in the comedy series. After falling from grace in high-level football, Holliday goes undercover in an attempt to get a second chance with a struggling college team and revive his career.

4

When fans sat down to watch the second-season finale of Chad Powers, few probably expected to see Johnny Depp appear.

During the scene, Russ hides out in an abandoned cinema while meeting with a friend who is secretly preparing to betray him. The projector initially shows nothing but a blank screen before footage of Depp from Edward Scissorhands suddenly appears.

Using Depp’s character in this way would have required clearance from the Pirates of the Caribbean star, which Powell confirmed was the case.

“I have to give a shout out to Johnny Depp for giving us the rights. Johnny had to give us the OK, so I sent him an email, and he did,” he said in an interview with Gold Derby.

What Chad Powers Is About

In “Chad Powers,” Powell plays the lead role of Holliday, whose shot at a national title and professional career went down the drain because of his ego. Nearly a decade later, he tries to get a second chance by trying out for a struggling college team.

He uses prosthetics to disguise himself and goes undercover at the walk-on tryouts, eventually making the team as Chad Powers. However, he now has to tell more lies to hide his identity, which makes many people suspicious of him.

At the same time, he tries to make up for his past mistakes and use his second chance to better himself and his new team.

The Series Was Inspired By Real-Life Events

4

One of the many questions that came up after the series debuted in September 2025 was whether it was based on something real.

Powell addressed the question during a Good Morning America interview that same month, revealing that the series was linked to former professional football player Eli Manning, who once went undercover to try out as a walk-on quarterback for Penn State.

“We took that concept and that inspiration and have doubled down on the prosthetics, updated it, improved it, new model, new Chad, and we’re making a hell of a show here,” Powell said during the sit-down about the show.

Glen Powell Credited Eli And Peyton Manning For Their Involvement In Chad Powers

4

At the time, Powell also confirmed that Manning and his brother, Peyton, were deeply involved in the behind-the-scenes work on the series.

“One of the coolest things about the Manning boys is that they are extremely involved,” Powell shared.

Their involvement helped make the football scenes feel fully legit, and Manning’s input as a football player was especially helpful.

“What makes this show different is we wanted this thing to be funny and heartfelt but to have the football be legit,” Powell added. “You know what a real quarterback looks like and when it doesn’t, so the fact that I have these guys as my coach, it’s a nice little lifesaver.”

Powell Revealed The Stakes Were Higher For His Character In Season 2

4

Speaking about the new season ahead of its September 3 debut, Powell told ABC News that the stakes were even higher.

“That’s the fun and dance of this season is that there’s a give and take,” Powell shared at the time. “There’s kind of a pressure-release valve when you are sharing a secret with somebody—you’re not in on it alone.”

Indeed, that proved to be the case, as the finale hooked fans so much that many began asking when the third season would debut.

Friday, September 11, brought plenty of emotions for Lil Durk as he learned his fate in his murder-for-hire trial. A Los Angeles jury found the rapper not guilty on all charges, while his wife, India Royale, and his mother sat in the courtroom for the major moment. Shortly after the jury announced its decision, India dropped a heartfelt message on social media as fans also dropped reactions to Durk’s not-guilty verdict.

India Royale Speaks Out Following Lil Durk’s Emotional Day In Court

Lil Durk might not be a free man just yet, but that isn’t stopping India Royale from holding him down. She made it clear she’s standing ten toes behind her husband when she dropped a message late Friday night following his not-guilty verdict in the murder-for-hire trial. India reposted a throwback photo from an Instagram fan page to her Story that showed Durk giving their daughter Willow Banks a kiss on the cheek. She added the message, “Thank You God,” along with a praying hands emoji.

Durk Scored A Legal Win But Will Remain Behind Bars

As The Shade Room previously reported, India and Durk’s mother both showed up to support him as the jury delivered its highly anticipated verdict. According to reports, the Chicago rapper broke down in tears after the jury found him not guilty on all charges. Durk’s mom also got emotional, and India reportedly wrapped her arms around her as the jury announced its decision. But Durk isn’t fully off the hook just yet. Per Complex, the 33-year-old will remain behind bars as he awaits the outcome of his pending RICO trial, which kicks off on October 5.

Durk’s Eldest Son Angelo Banks Shares Message After His Verdict

India Royale wasn’t the only loved one showing Durk some love after his verdict. His eldest son, Angelo Banks, also hit his Instagram Story with a message for his dad, sharing a sweet throwback photo of himself and his siblings posted up with Durk. Angelo wrote, “I love you dad. I always believed in you.” 

Angelo has been holding his dad down throughout the trial. Back in June, he showed Durk some love with a special Father’s Day post. Fans have also seen a lil’ peek at Angela’s bond with India after she and her daughter Willow pulled up to support him at his eighth-grade graduation in May. Durk shares Angelo with Nicole Covone. Nicole and Durk also share a daughter named Bella Banks. Durk has a total of seven biological children, including Angelo, Bella, and Willow, whom he shares with India. He also has another daughter, Skylar, and three other sons: Romeo, Zayden, and Du’Mier Banks.

NeNe Leakes is getting real about where she stands with her former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” co-stars. In a new interview, the veteran reality star said that while she wouldn’t consider herself to be best friends with any of the “RHOA” ladies today, she’s not in a bad place with them either. In fact, Leakes, who joined the cast of “The Real Housewives” in 2008, said she recently connected with a few of them, including her frenemy, Kim Zolciak.

Leakes appeared on the “Big Tigger Morning Show” recently and discussed her life, career, and, of course, her run on “The Real Housewives of Atlanta.”

When the conversation shifted to Leakes’ relationships with some of the women, the Atlanta OG clarified that she’s not best friends with them, but they’re cordial.

“I’m cool with Kim,” Leakes said. “When you say the word friend … that’s just a real serious word to me. Friend, no. Associates? Yes.”

Leakes and Zolciak both starred in the first several seasons of “RHOA,” and throughout the years, the two bumped heads over rumors and autotuned music tracks. Despite that, Leakes said she connected with Zolciak after learning that her son was arrested.

“I just hit her up wanting to know how she’s doing, congratulated her on Brielle, and made sure she was okay with what her son is dealing with. I know that’s a tough time, and I know she’s not okay.”

Leakes explained that she frequently connects with women from the show. However, they aren’t in constant contact. “If I need to call any of them on the show, they all will answer,” she said. “I don’t have no beef to the level where they won’t answer my call.”

In addition to Zolciak, Leakes said she recently connected with a few other “RHOA” cast members, including her longtime pal, Cynthia Bailey. “I’m not fighting with anybody,” she said. “I call Kenya; she’s answering. Marlo; she’s answering. Cynthia, I spoke to her just two days ago; we don’t have a beef. But we’re just not close like people think that we are, but we don’t have a beef.”

NeNe Leakes Shoots Down ‘RHOA’ Return In Passionate Statement

According to a previous report from The Blast, Leakes also spoke about the possibility of her ever returning to the series and said that she doesn’t think it’s likely.

“I think Andy has come out and said publicly that – I don’t think that he actually said the exact words, but I think what everybody took from it is NeNe won’t be back. So, NeNe won’t be back,” she said. “NeNe won’t be back. I don’t feel anything. NeNe won’t be back.”

Still, Leakes said that she’d be open to returning to the show in a much smaller capacity. “I would go and play with them, but as far as me actually holding a peach and all over here sitting on the couch, no. I can’t do that. That’ll drive me crazy,” she added.

Leakes Was Featured On ‘Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip’

Leakes’ comments come a week after her appearance on Bravo’s “Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip.” In episode 4, the mother of two returned to the franchise during a drag show hosted in Atlanta. The following episode, Leakes clashed with “RHOA” OG Lisa Wu during the Alter Ego event.

Speaking to a producer on set, Leakes revealed how she felt being back in front of the cameras. “My stomach was kind of hurting a little bit, kind of, you know, like, nervous hurt,” she said. “I don’t know how they are, you know. I just hope they’re nice to me”

The Women Were Happy To See Leakes

Throughout the two episodes, the principal cast of “RHUGT” shared how excited they were to see Leakes back with the women.

“I’m so happy Nene’s here. And, I don’t know, I feel like we have, like, this sisterhood, like no competition or anything like that. We always, like, respected each other,” Teresa Giudice said in her confessional.

Kyle Richards shared a similar statement, telling producers she has fond memories of her time with Leakes, since she was the first cast member from another franchise she became friends with. “We just always had each other’s back. I’ve missed her,” Richards said.

It’s been 28 years since we last saw the Owens sisters, and that’s 28 years too long.

But America’s long witch sister drought is now over, as Practical Magic 2, the long-awaited sequel to the cult film from 1998, is back in theaters.

Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock reprise their roles as Gilly and Sally Owens, two siblings with a talent for casting spells — and getting into all sorts of trouble.

Since the high-profile sequel is sparking an interest in the original, Watch With Us has thrown together a handy guide to where you can stream Practical Magic, Practical Magic 2 and whether the first film is worth watching after all these years.

Where Is ‘Practical Magic’ Streaming?

Practical Magic is available to stream on HBO. It’s also technically available on Hulu and Prime Video, but only with an HBO Max bundle. You can also rent or purchase Practical Magic on digital platforms, like YouTube and Prime Video.

What Is ‘Practical Magic’ About?

Sally and Gilly are two sisters blessed and cursed with being generational witches. After losing her husband to a curse that kills any man who falls in love with an Owens woman, Sally refrains from using magic, while the more free-spirited Gilly uses it recklessly. When she gets involved with dangerous criminal Jimmy (Goran Visnjic), Gilly asks her sister to help her get rid of him. Things get complicated when a private investigator, Gary (Aidan Quinn), comes looking for Jimmy and bonds with Sally, who can’t fight her growing romantic interest despite her fear of the curse.

Who Stars in ‘Practical Magic’?

Sandra Bullock as Sally Owens
Nicole Kidman as Gillian “Gilly” Owens
Stockard Channing as Frances Owens, Sally and Gillian’s aunt
Dianne Wiest as Bridget “Jet” Owens, Sally and Gillian’s aunt
Goran Visnjic as James “Jimmy” Angelov, Gillian’s lover
Chloe Webb as Carla, Sally’s good friend
Aidan Quinn as Investigator Gary Hallet
Evan Rachel Wood as Kylie Owens, Sally’s elder daughter
Alexandra Artrip as Antonia Owens, Sally’s younger daughter
Margo Martindale as Linda Bennett, another friend of Sally’s
Lucinda Jenney as Sara, one of the town women
Camilla Belle as young Sally Owens
Lora Anne Criswell as young Gillian Owens
Courtney Dettrich as Young Sara
Mary Gross as Debbie
Mark Feuerstein as Michael Greene, Sally’s husband
Caprice Benedetti as Maria Owens
Martha Gehman as Patty
Peter Shaw as Jack, Sally and Gillian’s father
Caralyn Kozlowski as Regina Owens, Sally and Gillian’s mother

Most of the principal cast returned for the sequel except for the actors who played Sally’s children, who were replaced by Joey King (as Kylie) and Maisie Williams (as Antonia). The original Kylie, Evan Rachel Wood, didn’t like that at all and has been public about her disappointment in not being asked to appear in the sequel.

Is ‘Practical Magic’ Still Worth Watching?

To quote a popular Jemima Kirke meme, “What the hell, sure.” The original isn’t a masterpiece; it carries a very low 30 percent Rotten Tomatoes critical rating, and it’s filled with female empowerment clichés and witchcraft stereotypes that make you want to groan. But Bullock and Kidman have a great good sister/bad sister chemistry that makes them fun to watch, and the film is stolen by Stockard Channing and Dianne Wiest as Sally and Gilly’s Steve Nicks-looking aunts. The film’s soundtrack is the perfect snapshot of late-90s music, with Faith Hill’s monster hit “This Kiss” prominently featured.

When Will ‘Practical Magic 2’ Be Available to Stream?

Practical Magic’s spellbinding tale of the Owens sisters’ quest to break their family curse isn’t just a film for the Halloween season — although it’s a must-watch during the fall.
