James Van Der Beek Urged Fans Not to Ignore This Colorectal Cancer Symptom
James Van Der Beek urged fans not to ignore one specific colorectal cancer symptom before his death on Wednesday, February 11, at age 48.
In a resurfaced interview from November 2024, Van Der Beek revealed to People that there was one indicator for his eventual stage III colorectal cancer he didn’t think much of when it first happened.
“It was just a change in bowel habits,” he said while speaking about his diagnosis publicly for the first time. “I thought, I probably need to change my diet a little bit. Maybe I need to stop [drinking] coffee. Maybe I need to not put cream in the coffee.” (Colorectal cancer begins in the longest part of the large intestine, called the colon, which contributes to bowel habits.)
The Dawson’s Creek actor noted, “Then I finally took that out of the diet, and it didn’t improve, and I thought, all right, I better go get this checked out.”
James Van Der Beek was diagnosed with colorectal cancer in November 2024 — but what does the condition entail? “Colorectal cancer is a cancer that arises in your colon or your rectum,” gastroenterologist Roshini Raj exclusively told Us Weekly in November 2024. “So part of your large intestine.” In February 2026, Van Der Beek died […]
When Van Der Beek did have a routine colonoscopy in August 2023 he recalled feeling “really, really good as I was coming out of anesthesia that I had finally done it and looked into it.”
But that happy feeling soon wore off when he heard his diagnosis. “And as I was coming out of the haze, the gastroenterologist said — in his most pleasant bedside manner — it is cancer,” Van Der Beek remembered.
The Varsity Blues star pointed out that he was “very healthy” and in “amazing cardiovascular shape” when he discovered the cancer. Once he knew what he was facing, Van Der Beek changed his already healthy diet — something he thought more people should implement as a precautionary measure.

“I think the country is waking up to connecting with our food and recognizing just how much it’s processed and how far away it’s gotten from the way nature intended,” he explained. “I would encourage everyone to do the same because this is not a fun process.”
Van Der Beek warned at the time, “There are a lot of assumptions, I think, that we’ve all grown up with about what’s healthy and what’s not. And I think it would all do us some good to throw out those assumptions.”
When it came to his routine, Van Der Beek said he was avoiding processed food, gluten and dairy, and only eating organic vegetables from his garden. He told the outlet he was exercising regularly and prioritizing his mental health.
James Van Der Beek was candid about his colorectal cancer battle before his death in 2026. “Each year, approximately 2 billion people around the world receive this diagnosis. And I’m one of them,” the Dawson’s Creek alum shared in an Instagram post at the time, noting that he was “in a good place and feeling […]
Van Der Beek also urged people in December 2025 to get screened for colon cancer right at 45, noting he didn’t get looked at until 46. (The age that doctors suggest adults get a colonoscopy and screenings went from 50 to 45 in 2018.)
“If anybody takes anything away from this interview, it would be, get tested, talk to your doctor,” Van Der Beek said during his last interview on the Today show.
According to Dr. Peter Stanich, a gastroenterologist with The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center — Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute and Wexner Medical Center, there has been an uptick in this type of cancer in younger, otherwise healthy adults.
“We know colorectal cancer has been increasing in young people, and it is not exactly clear why,” Stanich, who was not involved in Van der Beek’s care, told Women’s World on Thursday, February 12.
James Van Der Beek shared an uplifting message about his cancer diagnosis just two months before he died at age 48 on Wednesday, February 11. “As soon as I heard the news [about my colorectal cancer diagnosis], I went into shock,” Van Der Beek admitted to Today’s Craig Melvin on December 19, 2025, in what […]
The doctor explained, “Part of this is likely due to increasing obesity and changes in diets over time, but many people are still investigating the cause of this,” calling the increase in younger patients a “worrisome trend.”
Stanich noted that like Van Der Beek’s case, changes in bowel movements or abdominal pain should be discussed with a doctor.
“Many colorectal cancers do not cause symptoms, which is why it is so important to have the recommended screening test at the recommended age [45],” he added.
Van Der Beek, for his part, battled his cancer for more than two years before he died on Wednesday.

“Our beloved James David Van Der Beek passed peacefully this morning. He met his final days with courage, faith, and grace,” his family wrote via an Instagram statement. “There is much to share regarding his wishes, love for humanity, and the sacredness of time. Those days will come. For now we ask for peaceful privacy as we grieve our loving husband, father, son, brother, and friend.”
Fans and celebrities alike have since rallied around James’ wife, Kimberly Van Der Beek, and their six children, starting a GoFundMe page to help with remaining medical expenses and other costs following his death.
James’ fans and costars have also honored his legacy with tributes to the late actor. James’ former Dancing With the Stars partner Emma Slater wrote via social media, “I’m so devastated. He is and will always be family to me. Love you so much James. The man that you are, you can be proud of. So grateful that I got to be there to say goodbye to you.”

His Dawson’s Creek costar Katie Holmes, wrote a handwritten letter to James that she shared via Instagram on Thursday.
“James, thank you. To share space with your imagination is sacred — breathing the same air in the land of make-believe and trusting that each other’s hearts are safe in their expression,” Holmes, 47, wrote in part. “These are some of the memories, along with laughter, conversations about life, James Taylor songs — adventures of a unique youth …”
She continued to describe James’ life as one of, “Bravery. Compassion. Selflessness. Strength. An appreciation for life and the action taken to live life with the integrity that life is art — creating a beautiful marriage, six loving children — the journey of a hero.”

Kylie Kelce is going to have a mom-bod soon; at least, that’s what she has on the books.
Jason Kelce‘s wife revealed her plans for her body, which she has mapped out for when she is done having kids. Just like other celebrities, she is looking to feel her best and more confident in her skin despite the changes that accompanied four pregnancies and breastfeeding journeys.
Kylie Kelce has been very open with her motherhood journey, addressing several matters surrounding parenting, pregnancy, and particularly public breastfeeding. Her candid lifestyle does not go unrecognized by the media, as she recently faced backlash for her children’s names.

Kylie Kelce Wants New Boobs
Kylie, the wife of the popular retired NFL star Jason Kelce, has laid her cards out on the table, revealing her post-baby plans. She shared that getting a boob job is on her list, but only after she has washed her hands of childbearing.
The word came during a conversation with her college friends, Amber and Gab, on the Galentine’s Day episode of her “Not Gonna Lie” podcast.
The trio reacted to a video of a woman showing her friends the results of her surgery, then Kylie dropped that sha had plans for them to go under the knife as well. The podcaster went further, saying:
“To be clear, there is a rough plan that eventually I will put my boobs back where they belong because, four kids. That’s all I have to say about that!”

The friend clique continued discussing their future boob job reveal, and TMZ notes that Kylie said she’s going to wait until her new breasts “settle,” while the reveal would be via Tiktok.
There is no definite timeline for when the mom of four would have the cosmetic procedure, because while she wants five kids, her husband thinks they might be four and done.

The Podcaster Previously Addressed Public Breastfeeding
Kylie previously spoke out on her podcast about her experience with nursing in public and how people make the natural act seem awkward. Citing an interaction with her father and father-in-law, both named Ed, she noted that they often tend to act differently when she is breastfeeding the baby.
She stated that once she starts feeding her fourth daughter, Finnley, they both tend to leave the room. “Finn a little fussy? Does she need to eat? All of a sudden, they disappear. It’s like a flash,” she said.
Kylie added that many people do not know how to act when a woman is breastfeeding around them and advised that they should just act normally.

The Blast reported that she explained there is no need to leave the vicinity, stare at the nursing mum’s boobs, or make awkward comments. Such moves, even when made in the bid to lighten the atmosphere, make things weird instead.

The Mother-Of-Four Says Covering Up While Nursing Is A Choice
Still addressing the subject, the retired NFL star’s wife shared that she had mastered the act of nursing discreetly. She patted herself on the back for not ever having a “nip slip” while breastfeeding in the presence of others, but this has not stopped people from getting uneasy.
“On more than one occasion, someone will come in, and I will be breastfeeding, completely covered, and someone will be like, ‘Oh, I’m sorry,’” she said.
“And I’m like, ‘I don’t know what we’re apologizing about. You actually haven’t seen my boobs,’” the podcaster added that another thing that has helped keep her nursy discreet in public is the size of her boobs.
Kylie described herself as a proud member of the “Itty Bitty Titty Committee,” adding that people can’t really see her breasts over the baby’s head. Furthermore, she stressed that covering up while breastfeeding is her choice and not an unspoken rule for every woman or nursing mother.

Kylie Kelce Faced Online Heat For Her Kids’ Names
The Blast covered that critics raised their voices over the media personality’s decision to give her daughters gender neutral names. The names of her four daughters are Wyatt, Elliotte, Bennett, and Finnley. The couple received backlash from the beginning with Wyatt, but Kylie strongly claims they do not take it to heart.
“When we were having our first daughter, people told me don’t tell people what you’re going to name your kid because then you get reactions,” she recalled. “And I’m like, ‘I don’t think you understand, I really don’t care at that point.’ If I’ve chosen, we’re going with it.”
She added that they faced the biggest reactions from the public with her name, joking that gender neutral names might actually benefit the girls in the professional world.
The podcaster also shared that deciding on a name for their youngest daughter was influenced by the choices for the other three, as they had to keep the trend.

Kylie Kelce Tried To Prank Her Husband With Viral Trend
Kylie made an attempt to pull a prank on Jason using a Tiktok trend where wives ragebait their husbands with questions. She disclosed how the prank did not work on Jason, as instead of getting angry at the question, he answered sweetly and sincerely.
Kylie called Jason and asked, “Do you ever wish you were more athletic?” to which he replied, “Oh, gosh, not really,” he said. “I feel like I’m pretty athletic.”
She continued telling her husband that she had been thinking about the question for a while. Later on during her podcast, she disclosed that she appreciated that the retired NFL star did not immediately get defensive responding to her question, as she had seen other couples do online.
The mom of four joked that Jason is very confident and that sometimes gets her mad because she has to think of other ways to get to him. “And I mean that in a loving way,” Kylie added as a subtle disclaimer.
Donna Kelce
Won’t Pressure Travis Amid Retirement Buzz
… It’s Up To Him!!!
Published
TMZSports.com
Travis Kelce’s NFL future is hanging in the balance … and Mama Kelce says the final call belongs to him!
Donna Kelce tells TMZ Sports she’s giving her superstar son total freedom as he weighs his options of returning to the Kansas City Chiefs, signing elsewhere in free agency or calling it a legendary career.
“You know, I just want him to do what he feels comfortable doing,” Donna told us this week outside LAX. “He’s gotta talk to people in his life to decide what he wants to do.”
“So I’m not sure. We’ll see what happens!!!”
Retirement chatter has followed the All-Pro tight end throughout the offseason … with Kelce himself admitting he’s thinking about how much longer his body — and mind — want to handle the grind of NFL life.
Still, he’s also made it clear his love for football hasn’t disappeared … saying last month on his “New Heights” podcast, “If my body can heal up, rest up and I can feel confident that I can go out there and give it another 18, 20-21 week run, I think I would do it in a heartbeat.”
Kelce built a Hall of Fame résumé (he’s a first ballot lock) over 13 seasons, helping lead the Chiefs to three championships … but faces a crossroad as he balances the physical toll of the game with a booming life off the field alongside fiancée Taylor Swift.
Inside the Kelce family, there’s no pressure campaign pushing him toward one choice or the other. Donna made it clear her role is simple: support whatever decision Trav makes.
Whatever he decides, Kelce’s place in NFL history is already cemented — the only question is whether he’s ready to close the book or add another chapter.
If you’ve ever watched Landman and thought, “Why do Ainsley and Cooper hate each other this much?” — congrats, you’re officially aligned with the cast. Turns out, Michelle Randolph and Jacob Lofland are just as confused as the audience about their characters’ constant sibling warfare. And yes, they’ve gone straight to the source for answers. Speaking on Today on February 10, Randolph admitted she gets asked about the animosity all the time — and she doesn’t have a concrete explanation.
“And we don’t know [why they hate each other]. We’ve both called Taylor Sheridan and been like, ‘Can you give us something to work off of?’ It’s really hard to hate each other, cause he’s one of my great friends.”
On screen, Ainsley and Cooper Norris are constantly at each other’s throats. Their arguments feel personal, angry, and at times explosive. Off screen? Total opposite vibe. Ahead of Season 2, Lofland echoed Randolph’s comments about their dynamic, saying:
“As soon as we met, we got along. We’re best friends. We love each other.”
Which honestly makes their on-screen tension even more impressive. For now, Randolph says her working theory is that the siblings function as narrative opposites. “They are mirrors for one another,” she explained. “They each stand for everything the other person opposes. So it’s fun. I don’t have that dynamic in my real life, so I get all my anger out at Cooper.” That “mirror” idea actually tracks with Sheridan’s writing style — characters who embody opposing philosophies and force each other (and the audience) to react.
Taylor Sheridan Is a ‘Provocateur’
Randolph, who previously worked with Sheridan on 1923, has made it clear she trusts his vision — even when she doesn’t fully understand it. “Honestly, Taylor Sheridan takes chances on actors, and he’s one of the few people I feel like in the industry who really does that and has given us this opportunity, and I just am eternally grateful for him,” she said in 2025. “He made my dreams come true. I tell him that every time I see him,” she admitted, before joking about his reaction. “He’s like, ‘Michelle, stop. I get it.’ I’m like, ‘Thank you.’ But he really did give us something.”
Meanwhile, Ali Larter, who plays Angela Norris, has described Sheridan as a “provocateur” in how he builds his worlds. “He loves to write characters that make people respond, that initiate a reaction, a feeling,” she said. “And I think that what’s incredible about our show, and a lot of the shows that Taylor makes, is that they’re all wildly original and authentic to themselves.” She added, “It’s incredible how Taylor made oil fascinating. This is why he’s such a genius — you would never know on paper that this show would be so riveting or so many people would love it.”

“Stranger Things” star Caleb McLaughlin calls finale fan theory 'dumb' and weighs in on Eleven's fate

“Guys, it’s over. It’s been 10 years. We were full-on kids and now we’re full-on adults, and we don’t need any more of us.”
John F. Kennedy Jr. and wife Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy had a high-profile romance right up until their tragic deaths.
When the couple began dating in 1994, the world was fascinated by their relationship. Considered to be one of the most eligible bachelors at the time, Kennedy Jr. decided to settle down with Bessette-Kennedy. As he was expected to follow in the footsteps of his father, President John F. Kennedy, many thought Besette-Kennedy would become the next Jackie Kennedy.
Many members of the Kennedys’ inner circle knew Bessette-Kennedy was “The One” for Kennedy Jr. right away. The Real Housewives of New York City alum Carole Radziwill, who was previously married to Kennedy Jr.’s late cousin, Anthony, recalled in a 2016 A&E special that Kennedy Jr. and Bessette-Kennedy shared a special connection.
“I met some of John’s previous girlfriends, but I knew the minute he introduced us to Carolyn that she was it,” Radziwill said. “He was really besotted with her … There was this instant chemistry.”
Kennedy Jr. and Bessette-Kennedy tied the knot in 1996. Rumors that they were having their ups and downs dogged the twosome, and they were photographed arguing in public on occasion.
Tragedy struck in 1999. Kennedy Jr. and Bessette-Kennedy were killed in a plane crash near Martha’s Vineyard. Years after their death, reports surfaced that Kennedy Jr. and Bessette-Kennedy were working on their issues in therapy and hopeful to start a family of their own.
“Toward the end of their lives, they had managed to reach this kind of rapprochement,” The Day John Died author Christopher Andersen exclusively told Us Weekly in July 2024. “Whatever friction was there was being dealt with.”
Kennedy Jr. and Bessette-Kennedy’s romance was revisited in FX’s 2026 limited series Love Story. Keep scrolling to relive their relationship timeline:
1992
Kennedy Jr. met Bessette-Kennedy while she was working in sales at the Calvin Klein store in Manhattan.

The couple walked down the aisle in an intimate ceremony at a small church on Cumberland Island in Georgia.
1998
Bessette-Kennedy and Kennedy Jr. attended their pals Betsy Reisinger and Kenan Siegel‘s Miami wedding in March 1998. In the 2024 book Once Upon a Time: The Captivating Life of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy by Elizabeth Belle, Reisinger recalled the duo looking infatuated with one another at her nuptials.
“Carolyn and John were deeply in love and in love with life,” she reflected. “That is how I remember them.”
1999
Kennedy Jr. and Bessette-Kennedy tragically lost their lives on July 16, 1999. Kennedy Jr. was piloting a plane that crashed off the coast of Martha’s Vineyard. Kennedy was 38 while his wife was 33. In the crash, Bessette-Kennedy’s sister Lauren also perished.
Victoria Woods had a few things to say after she noticed Gloss Up began selling disparaging, NSFW T-shirts of her.

Gloss Up Begins Selling Disparaging, NSFW T-Shirts Of Victoria Woods
Days before Gloss began selling the T-shirts, she took to a livestream to address those who wanted her to react to previous footage of Woods calling her a “snake.”
“What do y’all want me to clear up? I don’t have s** to say — that b***h is slow. I don’t care,” Gloss stated in footage captured by 9MagTV.
Then, on Wednesday, February 11, Woods took to a livestream where she not only blasted Boosie, Charlamagne Tha God, and ‘The Breakfast Club,’ but she also blasted Gloss.
“We gon’ keep it 100 — I was constantly bringing up her name. But when they ask questions, I’m gonna bring up a name,” Woods said before alleging that her relationship with GloRilla became distant “because of Gloss.”
From there, Woods said that Gloss shouldn’t be talking about her fighting a man because she allegedly got beaten up “by females.”
“That was a whole ass man boy I got into it with. You got beat by females multiple times. You went on ‘Baddies’ for what? You needed the money? I’m finna email the CEO of Zeus right now, and I feel like he should give y’all a free subscription,” Woods continued.
From there, Woods took to Facebook, writing, “i remember when rambo first baby momma Derica Renee served Gloss Up Russell like a waitress worse then the baddies “
Then, she added, “H*e better go make some shirts i would’ve booked you for mines but you stay running off got exposed plenty of times fa it gone take someone deposit and go spend it where the damn shirt at “
And followed up with another post about Gloss:
At that point, Woods continued to taunt Gloss, asking if she could put her caricature on a shirt.
At that point, Gloss replied with her own NSFW Facebook post.
At that point, Gloss had the shirts produced and up on her website.
Victoria Woods Goes OFF
At that point, Gloss alerted her fans that the T-shirts were up on her website and available for purchase.
In reaction, Woods posted, “someone send me a pic of her getting the mario coins knocked out 
“ Then she followed up by posting an edited photo of Gloss.
But Woods didn’t stop there. She shared another disparaging post about Gloss.
At that point, Woods eased off Gloss. But Gloss shared a last NSFW post, with a final shot at Woods.
Before Their Beef, GloRilla’s Sister Was Goin’ OFF On Boosie & Charlamagne Tha God
Before their exchange, Victoria Woods was also sharing words for Charlamagne Tha God. As The Shade Room previously reported, while on ‘The Breakfast Club,’ Charlamagne agreed with the sentiment that Woods should stop airing out her family business and get her own job and money.
In reaction, Woods took to Facebook to share a message with a few spicy words about Charlamagne.
“and for the breakfast club you a n***a with a name like Charlemagne tf we gone change the last name to Goddess sassy ass,” she wrote.
Additionally, on Wednesday, Woods continued sharing strong words about Boosie, per The Shade Room.
This, amid making it clear that she’s been racking up her coins and “network.”

Former Bravo star Taylor Armstrong is facing the consequences of her recent remarks. Earlier this week, Armstrong—a “Real Housewives” veteran—ignited a controversy after issuing critical comments about Bad Bunny‘s Super Bowl Halftime performance.
After facing pushback, Armstrong apologized for her statements, admitting she didn’t connect with the Latino artist’s “creative” direction. Her apology, however, is falling on deaf ears, as many netizens slammed the 54-year-old, labeling her “racist” and calling for others to have her canceled.

For those who might’ve missed it, Armstrong posted an image to her Instagram Stories following Bad Bunny’s record-breaking Super Bowl Halftime performance in early February 2026. The snap showed her edited over a character from “Gladiator.”
“Were you entertained?? I am embarrassed for the @NFL and Apple for the Super Bowl half time show totally in Spanish with a Cuban flag,” she captioned the post.
Commenters on Reddit reacted strongly to the post, calling the reality star “uneducated.”

Armstrong Responds To Bad Bunny Backlash, Admits She Didn’t ‘Connect’ With The Show
After sparking significant backlash, Armstrong issued a follow-up post, apologizing to anyone she might have offended.
“I want to address my earlier Instagram post about the Super Bowl halftime show. My post did not fully reflect my heart or my respect for the artist and culture as a whole,” she wrote. “The Super Bowl is such a huge American tradition, and while I personally didn’t connect with the creative direction of this year’s halftime show, that doesn’t take away from the fact that Bad Bunny IS an American and that the Spanish language is a prominent aspect of American culture. Evidently, my lack of awareness of the Latin culture led me to mistaken [sic] the flag as Cuban.”

Armstrong added that she plans to “learn from this in the future” so she can be well-informed about different cultures and backgrounds. “That diversity is something I truly respect,” she said.

Fans Are Not Moved By ‘Racist’ Armstrong’s Apology
Bad Bunny’s performance, which showcased some of his biggest hits such as “Tití Me Preguntó,” secured its place as the most-watched Super Bowl Halftime Show of all time. The nearly 15-minute show was a spectacle of flashing lights, groovy choreography, and inspirational messaging.
In a previous interview, Bad Bunny described his performance as a celebration of culture. “It’s for those who came before me and ran countless yards so I could come in and score a touchdown… this is for my people, my culture, and our history. Ve y dile a tu abuela, que seremos el HALFTIME SHOW DEL SUPER BOWL,” he said.
As for Armstrong, the mother of one stated that she never intended to offend “anyone’s culture or language,” adding that she should’ve “taken more time to reflect.”

Armstrong’s plea for forgiveness, though, wasn’t well received by social media users, who called the TV personality “privileged.”
“Why apologize if that’s how you really felt? You don’t unlearn 60yrs of being racist in 3 days,” another wrote.
“How are you learning and growing about respecting cultures at 50 plus?” a third asked.
