Before Kevin Gates Pushed The Fan Asking Him For A Picture, He Showed Love To BroRilla

Before Kevin Gates made headlines by pushing a fan who asked for a picture, he was showing love to GloRilla’s sister, Victoria Woods. As The Shade Room previously reported, in February, Woods shared a voice note she apparently received from Gates. The post, which was initially shared on Facebook, has now been deleted. However, in the audio, he told her, “Your video had just came across my desk. I just wanted to tell you something: I really appreciate you, bruh. Thank you. And I’m flattered. Like, that really mean a lot to me. S**t whenever you wanna meet me bruh… whenever.”

ClassPass has become one of the most-talked-about names in fitness as the $30 billion US health and fitness industry keeps expanding. Here is how the subscription works, what it costs and why users say it actually keeps them moving.

How Does ClassPass Work in 2026?

ClassPass is a subscription that gives members access to thousands of studios and classes in their city through a single app, using a credit system rather than unlimited access. Members buy a set number of credits each month and spend them on classes they book.

Popular boutique sessions can cost up to 9 credits, while general classes may run as low as 1 or 2. ClassPass launched in 2013 with a flat $45 monthly fee for five classes regardless of type or location, but pricing now varies by market. The company partners with more than 8,500 studios across 50-plus cities. As of January 2025, 94% of users were brand-new to the venues they booked through ClassPass, a sign the app is steering members toward studios they would not have found on their own. The broader fitness industry has grown 3 to 4% annually for the past decade, with boutique studios now driving more than 35% of revenue.

Why Does ClassPass Keep Members Coming Back?

Variety, not any single workout, is what keeps members committed, according to Jeff Bladt, senior vice president of pricing and marketplace at ClassPass parent company Playlist.

“All those fundamental problems that prevent people from forming a fitness habit, ClassPass solves,” Bladt told Forbes. He pointed to price, discovery and availability as the biggest friction points that stop people from sticking with a routine. The credit system also creates urgency. A member with 40 credits and a month to use them has to plan ahead, and the “use it or lose it” structure pushes members to catch up after a missed week rather than walk away. Bladt describes fitness as a “habit-forming frequency thing,” and the product is built around that behavior. Locking users into one studio or modality, he argues, may produce short-term commitment but long-term fatigue. The pattern Playlist sees is members starting with yoga, shifting to Pilates, trying strength training and dabbling in recovery services.

What Classes and Services Can You Book on ClassPass?

ClassPass members can book yoga, Pilates, spin and boxing alongside newer favorites like HIIT, Barre and dance cardio. The app also surfaces trending formats such as aerial yoga and extends beyond fitness into recovery services like massage and meditation, plus beauty appointments including nails and haircuts.

That breadth lines up with what research has flagged as the fastest-growing fitness activities of 2017, including event-style classes, equipment-based classes, HIIT, Barre, yoga and HIIT small group training. Writer Alina Tang said in a piece for Medium that she had tried more than 30 different studios since signing up, sampling yoga, spin, boxing, Pilates, Zumba and bootcamps. “It wasn’t until I started using ClassPass that I discovered the joy of exercise,” she wrote. “Not simply for results, but for pure pleasure.”

How Much Does ClassPass Cost?

ClassPass pricing varies by city and runs on credits rather than a flat unlimited rate. When the company launched in 2013, members paid $45 a month for five classes regardless of class type or location.

That model has been replaced by tiered credit packages, where members choose how many credits they want each month and spend them on the classes they book. The cost per class varies, with high-demand boutique sessions sitting at the top of the range and standard offerings priced significantly lower. Pricing also flexes by location since ClassPass operates in more than 50 cities and partners with over 8,500 studios, so the same package may unlock different numbers of classes in different markets. The monthly credit structure gives members a built-in target and a deadline to use what they paid for, which Playlist’s Jeff Bladt has described as central to how the product reinforces a fitness habit.

The Supreme Court has shot down Donald Trump’s bid to dismantle birthright citizenship. The proposal declared that children born to immigrants in the United States are not American citizens.

Supreme Court Rules Against Donald Trump’s Executive Order

On Tuesday, June 30, the Supreme Court ruled against Trump’s executive order challenging the 14th Amendment. It declared that children born to people in the country illegally are not U.S. citizens, according to PBS News. The 14th Amendment was created in part to establish formally enslaved people as citizens.

“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside,” reads the ruling. 

Roomies React To Trump’s Loss

Instagram user @itsgemaaaduhhh_ replied, “Lmfao he’s going to stroke out ! Please keep making him mad.”

President Trump Recently Made Headlines By Way Of Barack Obama

Obama went on to say that during his two presidencies, he didn’t have time to be bothered by his predecessors, and he dragged Trump for filth in the process.

“Look, first of all, when I was president, the last thing I had time to do
was worry about what somebody said or what my predecessor did,” he added. “They’re gone, I’ve got work to do… Look, kind of worrying about that is a strange thing to me. It shows me somebody who’s not focused on the American people and the job they’re supposed to do.”

Sci-fi is often a hard sell at the box office. The only genre that’s harder is fantasy, and steampunk fantasy adventure never seems to work. That didn’t stop New Line Cinema from adapting The Golden Compass by Sir Philip Pullman into a big-budget blockbuster adventure stacked with an A-list cast and a marketing campaign to match. It was, as you can imagine, a financial disaster despite earning over $350 million. The movie also pulled off the rare feat of pushing away both fans of the source material and critics of the books at the same time. 

Buckle Up, The Golden Compass Gets Complex

The Golden Compass takes place on an Earth where everyone’s soul exists outside of their body as a Daemon. Taking the form of animals, Daemons have to be in close proximity to the person. This world is also under the control of the Magisterium, an authoritative church that actively suppresses any and all dissent. Lyra (Dakota Blue Richards) is bequeathed a magical device called the alethiometer, or symbol-reader, or the titular Golden Compass, that can detect the truth. Needless to say, the Magisterium wants it. 

There’s also the problem of the Dust, strange cosmic particle that links to different worlds, and by its very existence, proves the Magisterium is wrong about everything. Lyra’s adventure staying one step ahead of the Magisterium while trying to learn the truth of the world around her includes a never-ending parade of characters, including Ian McKellen voicing Iorek, the armored bear all over the marketing, Ian McShane as King Ragnar of the Panserbjorne (the ice bears), Daniel Craig as Lyra’s uncle, Nicole Kidman as the evil Marisa Coultier, and a pair of castings that are so on the noise its parody: Sam Elliot as a Texan cowboy aeronaut and Eva Green as a witch. 

There’s a lot that The Golden Compass crams into an hour and 53 minutes, and it still managed to butcher the original novel. 

Angered Both Fans And Critics Of The Novels

Sir Philip Pullman’s trilogy, His Dark Materials, carries a heavy anti-religious message that was dramatically toned down for the film. That angered long-time fans of his fantasy world, and still didn’t appease the Catholic Church, which publicly went after the film months before it was released, not because of the watered-down film, but because it would encourage reading of the original novels. 

The Golden Compass was supposed to be the start of a trilogy adapting all of the novels, but after it crashed and burned in the U.S., plans changed. Chris Weitz, the director of Twilight: New Moon and a co-writer of Rogue One, did his best with everything handed to him and internationally, the film was a hit, earning over $300 million. The issue is that the $70 million stateside destroyed New Line Cinema’s investment. Due to the complex web of Hollywood negotiation rights, the studio didn’t get a cent of the international box office haul. 

Fantasy Is Always A Tough Sell

Blockbuster fantasy has since been confined to streaming with the rise and fall and rise of Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon. The same turned out to be true for His Dark Materials, a BBC adaptation of the novels that managed to get out all three series and remained significantly closer to the novels than the Hollywood film.. Sir Philip Pullman recently concluded a companion trilogy to His Dark Materials, The Book of Dust, that runs both before, and after Lyra’s journey. 

The Golden Compass is available to stream for free on Tubi, Plex, and Sling TV.

General Hospital indicates that WSB director Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) about to see his time run out, and my guess is that it’s far more likely he will be killed than arrested. Our leaker says he is doomed to die. And if he goes out, as we expect, the big question is who takes that monster out.

We’re going to talk about who in Port Charles would love to kill evil double agent Cullum and end his reign of terror once and for all.

General Hospital: Cullum’s Crimes Unravel

So, already this week on General Hospital, we saw Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) telling Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) that director Cullum is the one who stabbed Marco Rios (Adrian Anchondo) to death. And then we saw Cullum telling Cassius Faison (Ryan Paevey) that he had better hustle over to that house and kill Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota). Make sure he doesn’t leave the place. And he said to do it before the PCPD sends in the cops to arrest Sidwell.

Before the authorities burst into the house, Sidwell told Ezra Boyle (Daniel Cosgrove) that he wanted him to publicly out Cullum as a double agent. Now, he might kill Ezra for that, but I don’t think the other guy cares. But then the cops burst in and Sidwell outed Cassius, who had no choice then but to turn his gun on Detective Joe Fitzpatrick (Jonathan Bennett). And at this point, Cassius is going to have to just get Sidwell out of there. And if Cassius is smart, and I think he is, you know, he’d kill Sidwell and take off, but he’s not that smart. So, we’ll see.

General Hospital: Cassius Exposed

At this point, it looks like Cassius may need to abandon Cullum, Sidwell, and Port Charles and just get the heck out of there because Joe isn’t going to sit on that secret. Ezra might, but the Joe won’t. Even worse, this week, Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) completes the Cold Fusion prototype, and that was what Cullum was waiting on.

General Hospital summer spoilers say the WSB baddie wants to take it and run because Cullum’s got plans to do dastardly things with it. So, things are crashing down for Sidwell, Cullum, and Cassius right now. And with how evil Cullum is, I’m pretty sure that he’s more likely to be killed than he is to be prosecuted through the criminal justice system. And it’s long overdue.

General Hospital: Who Will Kill Cullum?

So, let’s talk about who gets to do the honors and take him out because there is a whole list of people queuing up to kill that WSB creep. Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) is top of that list. Now, you would think Jason Morgan (Steve Burton), but I suspect Cullum might be dead before Jason is back to Port Charles because he’s supposed to be back on screen, but in Indonesia first, which is where the WSB has him. And honestly, I really hope it’s Anna that does it. She deserves to be the one to kill Cullum after everything he did to her.

The gaslighting to make her believe Cesar Faison (Anders Hove) was alive, using Cassius to help convince her, and then of course causing those hallucinations. Plus, Cullum orchestrated Anna’s captivity in France. It was all very diabolical. Of course, all to buy time for Finola Hughes’ long vacation. But Cullum masterminded her downfall and now Anna is on her way back. And I hope she’s the one who takes him out.

General Hospital: Cassius Reaching His Breaking Point

Cassius is next on the list because Cullum just threatened Cassius’ mom, Liesl, and he also threatened Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy). So, at this point, Cassius wants to stop Cullum. And if Cassius finds out Cullum tricked him into sending poison medication to his sister Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud), I think he’d put a bullet in Cullum right then.

Cassius might figure it out since Joe just told him they tested Britt’s syringe from her room and it was just saline. So, Cassius may not figure out that the new meds are poison, but that something is off and Cullum has been messing with Britt and of course kidnapped his mom, Liesl. And now with Sidwell forcing Cassius’ hand and exposing him to the detective, it seems likely that Cullum may come after Cassius also. He’s another loose end that Cullum wants to tie off. That’s what the WSB director seems to be doing when he’s promising Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) a quick death at Turning Woods this week.

General Hospital: Sonny Can’t Wait to End Sidwell & Cullum

Sonny is another person high on the list of who wants to kill Cullum. In fact, he wants to take out both villains, Cullum and Sidwell. And I could see Sonny and Ethan Lovett (Nathan Dean Parsons) giving Sidwell and Cullum a ride out to the Pine Barons and putting them six feet under. Since Justine Turner (Nazneen Contractor) just told Sonny that she would prosecute him if he kills Sidwell, it’s best if there’s no bodies found. That way she can’t follow through. And Sonny’s pretty good at that.

Plus, he knows Cullum killed Marco, which is a crime that Sidwell tried to pin on Sonny. And of course, there’s a Sidwell versus Sonny big boss battle confirmed in General Hospital summer spoilers that come soon, but I don’t know if Cullum’s involved. However, Sonny may take care of his Sidwell problem very soon. And then Sonny could focus on Cullum who has now kidnapped his ex-stepdaughter Josslyn. And with Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) facing off with Cullum this week, Sonny would definitely whack him for harming Carly if Cullum isn’t killed in that confrontation.

General Hospital: Sidwell Desperate to Avenge Marco

Sidwell is another contender in the who-may-kill-Cullum list, his former partner in crime. And at this point, if Lucas Jones (Van Hansis) runs into Sidwell again, he has no reason to keep the secret. I suspect Lucas would tell Sidwell that Cullum stabbed Marco to death. And if Sidwell found that out, he would lose his whole entire mind and go after Cullum immediately and brutally. It’s ironic since Sidwell’s grief has him distracted. And that’s why Cullum wants Cassius to kill him when it is Cullum who caused the grief by killing Marco that’s distracting him. Kind of full circle nonsense.

General Hospital: Carly Faces Off with Cullum

Carly is next on the list. She will do anything to protect her kids and she knows Josslyn’s being held by Cullum at Wyndemere and Joss honestly could be killed at any moment. So, Carly’s determined to get Joss out of there and she’s facing off with Cullum this week.

Plus, he’s a danger to Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart). And he’s also targeting Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke), the daughter of the man who has stolen Carly’s heart. So, if she gets a chance, yeah, for so many reasons, Carly might save Joss. And to do it, if she needs to crack Cullum with a fireplace poker in the head or grab up one of Sidwell’s stupid sculptures he’s got lying around and give him a craniotomy, I think that would be great.

General Hospital: Joss Gets the Job Done?

Joss is another possibility. You know, she’s turned into a pretty formidable WSB agent, and we know she’s got no problem killing bad guys, and she knows exactly how bad Cullum is and doesn’t want him to get his hands on the Cold Fusion prototype that Liesl completes this week.

So, Joss wouldn’t hesitate to kill him. And General Hospital summer spoilers say that a timely arrival gives Joss the chance to stop Cullum and that there is a bloody battle on Spoon Island. So, that timely arrival might be Carly and Joss might get out of there to try and save her mom. I mean, heck, Cassius might set Josslyn free, hoping she’ll kill Cullum for him while Cassius creeps out of town.

General Hospital: Don’t Mess with Obrecht

Liesl is last, but certainly not least. She’s pretty ticked that Cullum kidnapped her. And she’s also mad that he’s forcing Cassius, the son she never knew she had, to do dirty work designed by Faison, the man she used to love that Liesl now despises. If Cullum attacks Josslyn or Cassius, I could see it happening. You know, Liesl might sneak up and bash Cullum in the head with something to save her son or grab a gun that Chase dropped.

You know, I think she would do it to protect Josslyn or Cassius. Both have been there for her. And we know that Liesl Obrecht is nobody to mess with. And in the end, I think pretty much everybody wants Cullum dead. Whoever does it should get a medal from Mayor Laura Spencer (Genie Francis).

Netflix has officially revealed that its upcoming reality competition series, Wonka’s The Golden Ticket, will premiere on September 23, and one of its biggest surprises is already generating plenty of discussion. The streamer has recreated the iconic voice of Gene Wilder using artificial intelligence, allowing the legendary actor’s portrayal of Willy Wonka to guide contestants throughout the series.

According to Netflix, the AI-generated voice was created in partnership with ElevenLabs and, importantly, with the full approval of Gene Wilder’s estate. The series is inspired by both the beloved 1971 film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory and Roald Dahl’s classic novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Contestants who earn a coveted Golden Ticket will compete in a series of physical, mental, and moral challenges inside a recreation of Wonka’s magical factory.

Karen B. Wilder, speaking on behalf of the Gene Wilder estate, shared her support for the project:

“More than five decades after Gene brought Willy Wonka to life, people of all ages and backgrounds around the world continue to find joy, laughter and inspiration in his performance. Gene had a remarkable ability to bring humor, wonder and heart into people’s lives, and that connection has endured for generations. We are delighted that Wonka’s The Golden Ticket celebrates the warmth and imagination that he brought to the role, introducing that magic to a new generation while honoring the fans who have cherished it for decades.”

The series will also feature Rusty Goffe, who portrayed one of the original Oompa Loompas in the 1971 film, adding another nostalgic connection to the beloved classic. While the use of AI to recreate performances remains a controversial topic across Hollywood, Netflix’s collaboration with Wilder’s estate is likely to be a major talking point leading up to the show’s premiere.

Kelly Price isn’t having it after fans reportedly called her out for watching Brian McKnight perform during the Season of Love Part 2: R&B Edition concert on Saturday, June 27. Both singers were on hand to perform at the event in Nassau, Bahamas, and folks did not appreciate seeing Price give McKnight his flowers amid his unfortunate family drama.

Kelly Price Claps Back After Being Roasted By Fans Over Brian McKnight

Price shared footage of herself watching McKnight’s performance with her fans on Instagram, but things quickly took a turn when folks called foul. McKnight faced criticism for failing to support his son, Niko McKnight, as he was dying from cancer last year. 

The father and son were estranged when Niko died in May of 2025 at the age of 32. The ‘One Last Cry’ artist has long been canceled by many fans for his part in the family drama, and Price caught strays after she watched his performance on Saturday. LiveBitz captured the Instagram Story and shared the video on June 28.

“I just wanna say don’t come in here talkin’ garbage,” said Price. “This is my concert tonight, too…. I don’t get to be in the audience at concerts.”

Price added that she was merely supporting other artists, and she wasn’t here for the negative comments.

Things Quickly Went Left As Fans Dragged Price, Again

As TSR previously reported, Price faced her own issues with fans last year after she went off on a rant about Black women being her worst critics. Fans were quick to critique the 53-year-old singer again after she shared the video, and they did not mince words in their replies.

User @shadowofobsidian wrote, “Kelly, log off. We don’t need you either.”

@ivery2139 replied, “Y’all know she got issues too!!!🤷🏾‍♀️.”

@derwinking wondered, “well, why does she feel the strong urge to justify it?”

Other responses were a bit more…spicy.

User @peewee_450 wrote, “I gotta a shoe for you and him stfu.”

@feb4thfab echoed the sentiment. “Stfu Kelly 😂😂😂 Yo ass weird too…”

@heischarles joked, “She should be happy to get a comment!”

Brian McKnight’s Ex-Wife & Eldest Son Paid Tribute To Niko McKnight

More recently, Brian McKnight’s ex-wife, Julie, and eldest son, Brian McKnight Jr., paid tribute to Niko McKnight. As The Shade Room previously reported, May 30 marked the one-year anniversary of Niko’s passing. This, after he passed from cancer.

Furthermore, Julie and Brian Jr. both took to social media with heartfelt posts. This, while Brian McKnight continued to appear silent.

Netflix brought together some of Hollywood’s biggest names for the 2021 action comedy, Red Notice. Despite a tepid critical reception, the movie dominated the streaming platform’s viewership when it came out. The movie has gained a reputation as a light, fun, mindless action comedy popular enough that multiple sequels have entered development. 

Two Thieves, An FBI Agent, And A Huge Budget

Red Notice centers around a series of heists and cons as various characters try to acquire an ancient set of bejeweled eggs that belonged to Cleopatra. The movie’s three central characters are the world-famous thief, Nolan Booth, his rival Sarah Black, and an FBI profiler named John Hartley.

The three engage in a series of temporary alliances, double-crosses, and deceptions with each other as they each try to acquire the eggs. 

The cast is what makes Red Notice noteworthy, with its three leads each being played by an A-list actor. Nolan Booth is played by Ryan Reynolds, Sarah Black by Gal Gadot, and John Hartley by Dwayne Johnson. Seeing these mega-stars acting together is the movie’s main draw. 

Released in 2021, Red Notice was originally planned as a Universal movie but was acquired by Netflix, receiving a limited theatrical release. It dominated the streaming platform, becoming the most-watched debut weekend in Netflix history.

It was the 5th most-watched movie on Netflix in 2021, making it a huge hit for the company as an exclusive film. Due to the unusual way the movie came to Netflix, it has a much higher budget than most Netflix-exclusive movies. Costing $200 million, Red Notice was the most expensive Netflix movie at the time, though it was later unseated by The Gray Man in 2022. This budget is reflected in the cast and explosive action sequences. 

Critics Didn’t Like It

In addition to its huge budget the production of Red Notice is noteworthy because it was produced during the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic created major problems for the movie, which was filmed in both Atlanta, Georgia and Rome.

Production was halted completely for some time and the portion filmed in Italy was significantly delayed. 

Despite its popularity on Netflix, Red Notice was a huge flop among critics. The film has a 36 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, with the writing being the most heavily criticized element, particularly the movie’s unbelievable plot. Despite overall poor reviews, the performances, action sequences, and comedy were fairly well received and often praised even in negative reviews. 

Red Notice’s success has prompted the greenlighting of two sequels, being made back-to-back. These sequels are currently in the writing stage, with one script finished and the other still being written. It’s been claimed that these sequels will add more stars to make the franchise a growing ensemble venture. 

Due to its time of release and the fact that it was a Netflix original movie, Red Notice became one of the standout movies of the pandemic. While some of its success is likely a result of those circumstances, the chemistry and skill of its all-star cast may have made it a hit under any circumstances.

Red Notice is a fun, star-studded, action comedy mega-hit, that is still available on Netflix.
