Jordon Hudson Seemingly Trolls Robert Kraft’s Prostitution Bust Amid SB LX
Former New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick’s girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, is seemingly trolling Patriots owner Robert Kraft ahead of Super Bowl LX.
According to pictures obtained by TMZ on Sunday, February 8, Hudson, 24, was seen wearing a T-shirt from Orchids of Asia Day Spa while appearing alongside her boyfriend, 73, on Saturday, February 7, in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
For the uninitiated, Orchids of Asia Day Spa is the Florida massage parlor associated with Kraft’s 2019 prostitution bust. In January of that year, Kraft was accused of paying for sex acts after a months-long investigation into the Jupiter, Florida, establishment. The NFL owner pleaded not guilty, though he issued a public apology for his actions.
“I am truly sorry,” Kraft said in a written statement at the time. “I know I have hurt and disappointed my family, my close friends, my co-workers, and our fans and many others who rightfully hold me to a higher standard.”
Getty Images (3) Travis and Jason Kelce turned their attention to another high-profile relationship making headlines in the football world. On the Wednesday, June 26, episode of their podcast, “New Heights” — recorded at the Passyunk Avenue Bar in London — the brothers played a game of Players As, in which they attempted to “list […]
He continued at the time, “Throughout my life, I have always tried to do the right thing. The last thing I would ever want to do is disrespect another human being. I have extraordinary respect for women.”
While Kraft — along with 24 additional defendants — was offered a pretrial deal as part of a deferred prosecution program often offered to first-time offenders, the charges against Kraft were dropped in September 2020 after the prosecution lost a court decision that ruled key video and audio surveillance of Kraft allegedly soliciting a woman at the spa inadmissible.
“Although there was probable cause to make an arrest, the evidence cannot prove all legally required elements of the crime alleged and is insufficient to support a criminal prosecution,” a court filing by the office of Palm Beach State Attorney Dave Aronberg read at the time, per NBC News.

“Without these videos, we cannot move forward with our prosecutions and thus we are ethically compelled to drop the case against all the defendants,” Aronberg reiterated during a news conference.
While Belichick and Kraft won six Super Bowl Championships together during Belichick’s tenure with the team, they have seemingly had a tumultuous relationship since the former coach’s 2023 retirement.
“As I told Robert multiple times through the years, I took a big risk by taking the New England Patriots head coaching job,” Belichick told ESPN in July 2025 after the Patriots owner claimed he was the one who took a “big risk” in hiring Belichick after losing record with the Cleveland Browns.
“I already had an opportunity to be the Head Coach of the New York Jets, but the ownership situation as unstable,” Belichick continued at the time. “I had been warned by multiple previous Patriots’ coaches, as well as other members of other NFL organizations and the media, that the New England job was going to come with many internal obstacles. I made it clear that we would have to change the way the team was managed to regain the previously attained success.”
NFL players rely on their linemen to protect them on the field. Off of it, it’s their wives and girlfriends who have stepped up to clap back when fans have gotten out of line. That includes some of the most famous WAGs in the league today. Kylie Kelce, wife of former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason […]
Hudson, who met Belichick in 2021 on a flight from Massachusetts to Florida, is known for standing behind and beside her boyfriend, who is 49 years her senior. After reports surfaced that Belichick would not be a first-ballot Hall of Fame inductee despite being arguably the best head coach in NFL history, Hudson clapped back via Instagram.
“Hey @profootballhof, what were the ‘unforeseen circumstances’?” the former college cheerleader captioned the post, along with a screenshot of an email notifying her of a canceled order from the Pro Football Hall of Fame online store.

Steven Spielberg’s First Sci-Fi Movie in 8 Years Gets a Stunning New Look at the Super Bowl
Steven Spielberg has achieved legendary status as a director, with his influence in the world of filmmaking spanning more than 50 years. He began his career in 1975 with what many would argue is still his most famous film, Jaws, which returned to theaters last year to celebrate its 50th anniversary. He’s also responsible for some other influential sci-fi hits over the years, including E.T., and he’s even one of the masterminds behind Harrison Ford’s legendary Indiana Jones franchise. Spielberg may be almost 80 years old, but that doesn’t mean he’s ready to stop delivering great movies to the public.
It was announced back in 2024 that Spielberg was working on a new sci-fi movie, but details about the project were being held under wraps at that time. Throughout 2024 and 2025, Spielberg meticulously assembled the film’s cast, including Emily Blunt, Colman Domingo, Wyatt Russell, and others. It wasn’t until the second half of 2025 that Universal Pictures officially announced the film’s title, Disclosure Day, and confirmed it would be released in theaters on June 12. Plot specifics are still scarce at this time, but marketing for the film is finally picking up.
Universal Pictures officially released a new trailer for Disclosure Day during the Super Bowl, and it’s racking up thousands of views by the minute. It’s still difficult to predict exactly what Disclosure Day is about, but trailers and promotional material for the film show off a plot that leans into humans learning about alien life for the first time. There are still a few months remaining before disclosure day, but intrigue for Spielberg’s next film is as high as it’s ever been.
Who Wrote the Script for ‘Disclosure Day’?
David Koepp, Steven Spielberg’s longtime collaborative partner, wrote the script for his new sci-fi thriller, Disclosure Day. Koepp and Spielberg worked together on the first Jurassic Park movie back in the 90s, and Koepp even returned to the franchise last year to write the script for the latest franchise installment starring Scarlett Johansson and Mahershala Ali, Jurassic World: Rebirth. Spielberg was also credited as a producer on the film. Koepp also wrote the script for Pierce Brosnan’s latest spy thriller with Michael Fassbender, Black Bag, which was released in theaters at the start of 2025.
Check out the new trailer for Disclosure Day above, and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of the film.
TPUSA Super Bowl Halftime Show
Kid Rock Goes Toe to Toe W/Bad Bunny In Rival Concert
Published
Turning Point USA
While Bad Bunny took one of the world’s biggest stages Sunday, rocking the Super Bowl LX Halftime Show from Levi’s Stadium, Kid Rock tried to outshine BB with his own concert for Turning Point USA.
As expected … KR brought the crowd to their feet, starting out strong with his 1999 hit “Bawitdaba.”
The crowd went absolutely insane for his trademark high energy, but it looked like the backup track did most of the heavy lifting.
Kid wrapped up his set with an emotional altar call, encouraging fans to give their lives to Jesus.
The concert was dedicated to Turning Point’s late founder, Charlie Kirk.
As you know … the NFL’s decision to platform BB was very controversial with Trump supporters who seemed to take issue with the Puerto Rican rapper’s stance against ICE’s aggressive tactics.
Seeing an opportunity, TPUSA announced an event called “The All American Halftime Show,” which was promoted as an alternative to the NFL’s programing.
At the time, the right-wing advocacy organization shared a questionnaire asking followers what genres of music they’d like to see featured. Options included, “Classic Rock,” “Country,” “Americana,” and “Anything in English.”
TPUSA later checked all those boxes when they tapped Trump supporter Kid Rock to headline with others, including country singers Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice and Gabby Barrett, who were picked to join him.
With the SB being one of the biggest TV events every year and BB being the hottest artist on the planet right now, it was hard to imagine TPUSA could put up comparable ratings … and it doesn’t look like they did.
Viewership appeared to top out at under 6 million — a fraction of the 100 million viewers expected to have tuned in to the official SB Halftime Show.
But we’ll just have to wait until the numbers are in to tally the final score!
Katy Perry is sending a message to Bad Bunny ahead of his Super Bowl LX Halftime Show performance.
“you got this @sanbenito remind the world what the real American dream looks like #SuperBowlLX,” Perry, 41, wrote via X on Sunday, February 8, alongside a football and heart emoji.
Perry’s post comes hours before Bad Bunny, 31, is set to perform while the New England Patriots take on the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. Days before, Bad Bunny (real name Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio) teased that his performance will be all-inclusive — despite previously joking that English speakers had “four months” to learn Spanish.
“They don’t even have to learn Spanish,” he said during the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show Press Conference on Thursday, February 5. “It’s better they learn to dance. There’s no better dance than the one that comes from the heart. That’s the only thing that they need to worry about.”
After joking that English speakers had “four months” to learn Spanish for his Super Bowl 60 halftime show during his Saturday Night Live hosting gig, Bad Bunny insisted the performance is going to be an all-inclusive party. “They don’t even have to learn Spanish,” the rapper, 31, said Thursday, February 5, during theApple Music Super Bowl […]
He added, “I just want people to have fun.”
During the press conference, Bad Bunny — who is from Puerto Rico, an unincorporated territory of the United States — became emotional as he discussed his mom, Lysaurie Ocasio.
“She believed in me, and I’m not talking about my music career,” Bad Bunny said. “I’m just talking about everything. She believed in me as a person, as a human. She believed in my decisions, in my opinions, in my taste, in my choices.”
He continued, “She believed I could be a good person. I think that it was got me here, you know?”
After news broke in September 2025 that Bad Bunny would be taking the stage at the Super Bowl 60 Halftime Show headliner, the decision has received mixed reactions from public figures, fans, politicians and even NFL players.
Ricky Martin is sending support to Bad Bunny after the singer’s wins at the 2026 Grammys and discourse surrounding his Super Bowl LIX performance. “Benito, brother, seeing you win three Grammy Awards, one of them for album of the year with a production entirely in Spanish, touched me deeply,” Martin, 54, wrote to Bad Bunny, […]
A survey released by The Athletic on Monday, February 2, stated that 41.4 percent of NFL players said they didn’t “like” Bad Bunny being chosen as the performer.
“I don’t even know who Bad Bunny is,” an anonymous offensive NFC player said. “I always think it should be an American. I think they’re trying too hard with this international stuff.”
A separate player, however, sang a different tune. “I’ve heard his music obviously, but I don’t speak Spanish so I’m not a big fan,” an NFC defensive player said. “But I do think it’s cool to have him, because America is based on diversity. America was built on immigration. So I feel like having him just furthers that American dream. I like it. I like the choice.”
Days before Sunday’s performance, Bad Bunny took home the Album of the Year award at the 2026 Grammy Awards for his Debí Tirar Más Fotos album.
“There is nothing that exists that we can’t accomplish. Thank God, thank you to the Academy, and thank you to all the people who have believed in me throughout my career,” he said in Spanish. “To all the people who worked on this album. Thank you, Mami, for giving birth to me in Puerto Rico. I love you!”
Bad Bunny also shared a message in English, before continuing in Spanish. “I want to dedicate this award to all the people who had to leave their homeland, their country, to follow their dreams,” he said.
“For all the people who have lost a loved one and even then have had to continue moving forward and continue with so much strength, this award is for you all. Thank you for so much love. I love you,” he concluded. “To all the Latinos in the entire world, and all the artists who came before and deserved to be on this stage picking up this award, thank you very much.”
Broadcaster Kaylee Hartung is gearing up for her first-ever Super Bowl.
It was announced last month that Hartung would be making her sideline reporting debut during the 2026 Super Bowl at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, on Sunday, February 8, alongside Melissa Stark. The sportscaster is set to commentate on the game as the New England Patriots take on the Seattle Seahawks.
2026 marks the second Super Bowl in which NBC tapped two sideline reporters to assist with game coverage.
“It feels like such a cliche statement to say this is a dream come true. But it actually is,” Hartung told The New York Post ahead of the football game. “It’s wild that it’s the truth. It’s a dream that I’ve had for a while and it is surreal.”
Hartung admitted that saying she’s covering the Super Bowl is “a hard thing to say out loud” because it’s such a massive deal. She told the newspaper that she was “stocking up on sleep” ahead of her Super Bowl debut.
“I’m trying to enjoy being in the place that I pay rent right now, because those days feel few and far between,” Hartung said of her New York City apartment. “I moved into this apartment almost a year ago, right after the Super Bowl last year, and I still am missing pieces of furniture.”
Keep scrolling for everything to know about Hartung:

Following the 2026 Super Bowl, Hartung will head to Milan to cover the aerials and moguls freestyle skiing competition at the Winter Olympics.
“I’ve got to pack for a month on the road, two different climates and two different events,” she told The Post, noting that six suitcases and a duffle bag are what’s getting her through. “With the Olympics, it’s kind of easy. I’m working aerials and moguls events and I’ll be outside, so I’ll have to wear our NBC-issued Ralph Lauren Olympics gear.”
Hartung added, “I’ve got my puffer coat and all of my layers that are going to go underneath it — easy enough. That really does simplify everything with the weather. … For me, nothing matters more than functionality.”
One week after Savannah Guthrie’s mother, Nancy Guthrie, mysteriously went missing, law enforcement returned to one of her children’s homes to conduct a late-night search.
On Saturday, February 7, around 10:30 p.m., police were seen going in and out of Annie Guthrie and her husband Tomasso Cioni’s Arizona abode over the course of several hours, according to NewsNation’s Brian Entin. While it’s been reported an agent was spotted carrying a silver briefcase into the house, it is still unclear why investigators were conducting another search of the property or if they found any additional evidence related to Nancy’s potential whereabouts.
The home is one of the last places that Nancy, 84, was seen after having dinner with Annie and her husband on January 31. Her son-in-law allegedly drove her to her own house in Catalina Foothills just before 10 p.m. that night. The next day, she was reported missing after she failed to show up at church..
Her disappearance has since been treated as a crime investigation and a potential kidnapping. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos also exclusively told Us that it’s believed Nancy was taken while she was asleep.
“Something unusual at that house occurred that made us go, ‘Wow, something’s wrong here. Something doesn’t fit,’” he said on Monday, February 2. “We’re gonna pull all the stops and go at all angles. We really do hope it’s a search-and-rescue mission and we find her and she’s safe and sound. But it would be unjust if we didn’t look at what’s in front of us and go, ‘We need to act.’”
On Sunday, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department additionally confirmed the investigation into the 84-year-old’s shocking disappearance is ongoing with no major leads into who or why they may have taken her.
“Follow-up continues at multiple locations. No suspects, persons of interest, or vehicles have been identified,” a post shared to X read. “No scheduled press briefings. If any significant developments occur in the case, a press conference will be called.”
In the wake of Nancy’s disappearance, an alleged ransom note was sent to several media outlets. As Us previously reported, the person or people who supposedly took Nancy are allegedly demanding $6 million in bitcoin for her safe return, according to Tucson ABC affiliate KGUN9.
Investigators are analyzing a new clue as they continue their desperate search for Today cohost Savannah Guthrie’s mom, Nancy Guthrie. Surveillance footage from a Circle K in Arizona captured a “vehicle of interest,” according to NBC News, and has been turned over to authorities. As Us Weekly previously reported, Nancy, 84 was last seen on […]
On Saturday night, Nancy’s children —Savannah, Camron and Annie — pleaded with her alleged abductor or abductors to let her go in a heartbreaking video shared to Instagram.
“We received your message and we understand. We beg you now to return our mother to us so that we can celebrate with her,” Savannah said while holding her siblings’ hands. “This is the only way we will have peace. This is very valuable to us and we will pay.”
Their latest video message comes days after the Guthries publicly stated they were “ready to talk” with the alleged kidnappers and begged for proof their mother was okay.
“We live in a world where voices and images are easily manipulated,” Savannah said at the time. “We need to know without a doubt that she is alive and that you have her. We want to hear from you and we are ready to listen. Please, reach out to us.”

Anya Taylor-Joy’s Peach Takes Center Stage in Explosive New ‘Super Mario Galaxy Movie’ Trailer
Animation has emerged in recent years as one of the leading drivers of box office success. Just last year, Zootopia 2 outperformed many live-action blockbusters on its way to grossing over $1.7 billion at the global box office. This comes after other animated hits like Ne Zha 2 had no problem smashing box office records, while major Marvel movies like Thunderbolts* failed to turn a profit. It’s clear that a new age in Hollywood is upon us, and with a plethora of animated hits coming down the line, the genre is only going to get more flush as time goes on.
One of the biggest box office hits to come out in the last few years was The Super Mario Bros. Movie, which stars Chris Pratt as Mario and Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach. On the backs of other stars, like Jack Black as Bowser, The Super Mario Bros. Movie grossed over $1.3 billion at the global box office, making it one of the most profitable movies ever. It was a no-brainer for Nintendo to greenlight a sequel, which is now scheduled to be released on April 1. Promotion for the film is now in full swing.
Nintendo released a new look at The Super Mario Galaxy Movie for the Super Bowl, with the film now less than two months away from its global premiere. It’s currently slated to be released on April 1, almost exactly three years removed from the debut of the original film. The new Mario movie will take the duo of plumber brothers on a wild new adventure, with Brie Larson and Benny Safdie joining the cast as Rosalina and Bowser Jr, not to mention the absolutely adorable Yoshi.
Chris Pratt Has a New Apple Movie Coming Soon
Earlier this week, Apple TV officially announced its next film with Chris Pratt, Way of the Warrior Kid, which co-stars Linda Cardellini. The film follows a Navy SEAL who returns home to stay with his sister, only to realize that her son/his nephew is being bullied. He takes it upon himself to teach him to stand up for himself. The film will be released on Apple TV on November 20 this year and will be directed by McG, with a script by Will Staples.
Check out the new trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie above and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of the film.

What Do You Think Roomies?
“Survivor” fans have been reveling in the long-awaited return of the live finale for the upcoming 50th season of the CBS reality show. However, that excitement may be short-lived.
Jeff Probst has revealed that the live finale is likely a one-season event, with no plans to continue beyond the milestone season. The veteran host discussed the complicated dynamics of picking a cast for Season 50. He also admitted that production has yet to map out what the franchise will look like after the landmark season concludes.
And whatever that future holds, Probst made it clear that it will most likely not include the return of live finales.

The Live Finale Returns In The Upcoming ‘Survivor’ Season 50
Probst announced the return of the live finale for Season 50 of “Survivor” during a special promo that aired at the 83rdGolden Globe Awards in January 2026.
“That’s right! You voted; the finale is back! See you in Los Angeles,” Probst said in the ad, as reported by EntertainmentNow.
The last time “Survivor” held a traditional live finale was at the conclusion of Season 39. Season 40 featured a cast of Sole Survivors only and was initially expected to culminate with a live reunion.
However, those plans were scrapped following the outbreak of COVID-19, with the finale held remotely instead.
Pre-taped on-location reunions have defined the franchise in the seasons since.

Jeff Probst Laments The Cost Of Filming A Live Finale
The reason Probst has made it clear that the return of the live finale for Season 50 only is purely a financial decision, not a creative one.
Speaking at SCAD TVfest last week, Probst explained that CBS would be footing the bill for the show to the tune of millions of dollars.
“You also have to sometimes put your producer hat on and say, ‘This show costs millions,’” Probst said. “This one [immediately after the voting in Fiji] costs nothing.”
Because of that cost imbalance, he suggested that hosting a live finale again after Season 50 would be difficult to justify.
“Issue for me is it’ll be really fun to do, but it’s millions of dollars, and if it’s not 50, I’m not sure we’ll do it again in 51,” Probst said.

Fans Refuse To Believe CBS Cannot Afford A Live Finale
The news that there wouldn’t be a live reunion from Season 51 onwards has not been received very well by fans on social media.
One user on X questioned how CBS would be unable to afford live finale episodes in modern day, having done so for years.
“Survivor’ is 1/3 shorter now than when they did live finales,” the fan wrote. “’Survivor’ is now making 30 minutes more in ad revenue every week. But we can’t afford a live finale????”

Jeff Probst Admits The Future Of ‘Survivor’ Is Uncertain Beyond Season 50
While Probst has all but confirmed that live reunions are unlikely to continue beyond “Survivor’s” 50th season, he also admitted that the franchise’s future after that remains largely undefined.
In an interview with PEOPLE Magazine, Probst was asked about his plans for the long-running CBS competition series after the landmark installment, his response was candid.
“I can’t even… even you asking me that, oh my God! I have no idea for 51.”
Probst insisted that his focus remains on delivering a memorable Season 50 but admitted that the looming pressure is part of what keeps the job exciting.
“I just want to get through 50 with this incredible group of people,” Probst said. “But yes, it will be breathing down our neck. That is the fun that comes with the job… the pressure.”

Jeff Probst Believes It Was ‘Impossible’ To Have A ‘Perfect Cast’ For Season 50
Despite expressing his excitement about the lineup that production assembled for Season 50, Probst acknowledged that creating a universally agreed-upon cast was never a realistic goal.
“I don’t think so,” he said when asked about the possibility in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. “It’s always going to be subjective. And for this cast, a lot of people weighed in.”
Even so, Probst insisted that he was very happy with the choices they made for the all-returnee season.
When Disney+ launched back in 2019, there wasn’t all that much streaming on the platform aside from Marvel movies, Star Wars films, and National Geographic programming. However, Disney knew it couldn’t enter the streaming game without a compelling original series to kick things off, so it hung its hat on The Mandalorian, a new Star Wars story following a rogue bounty hunter who finds himself on a journey with a young Force user who is the same species as Yoda. The show was a smash hit, earning two more seasons and not-so-quietly blossoming into one of Disney’s biggest properties.
The Mandalorian most recently aired a season in 2023, and after the conclusion of the third season, it was unclear how and if things were going to continue. Din Djarin, the titular Mandalorian, had shown up in other projects such as The Book of Boba Fett, and other characters from Ahsoka and even the original trilogy had helped the story find a larger scope. It wasn’t until January 2024 that Star Wars officially announced that the next chapter of The Mandalorian would not come in a fourth season, but instead in a big-screen movie titled The Mandalorian and Grogu. It will be the first theatrical Star Wars movie since 2019’s The Rise of Skywalker.
The Mandalorian and Grogu is currently scheduled for release on May 22, and marketing for the film is in full swing. Disney even released a surprising new trailer for the film at the Super Bowl. It’s not so much a trailer as it is an adorable look at Mando and Grogu riding on a sled led by Tauntauns. Even better, the ad is narrated by none other than Yellowstone and Landman star Sam Elliot. Whether Elliott appears in the movie remains to be seen. The months between now and release will certainly be full of TV spots and featurettes full of new footage, though.
What Is ‘The Mandalorian and Grogu’ About?
Plot specifics about The Mandalorian and Grogu are being kept under wraps. All that’s been confirmed about the film’s plot so far is that it will be a brand new Star Wars adventure featuring Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and Grogu. Jon Favreau wrote and directed The Mandalorian and Grogu with help from new Lucasfilm President Dave Filoni on the script, and the film has recruited other massive stars such as Jeremy Allen White (The Bear) and Sigourney Weaver (Avatar: Fire and Ash) to star. It will be set after the events of The Mandalorian Season 3.
Watch the new trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu above and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of the film.

Brad Pitt Returns as Cliff Booth in Surprise ‘Once Upon a Time in Hollywood’ Sequel Trailer
Viewers got a surprise first look at The Adventures of Cliff Booth during Super Bowl LIX. The sequel to 2019’s smash hit Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, as the title would imply, will follow Brad Pitt‘s Cliff Booth, stuntman, handyman, and alleged wife-murderer in a new escapade in mid-century Los Angeles. The film is set to be released some time later this year.
In the new trailer, Cliff is decoupled from his onetime partner Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio), but has a new partner in crime in the form of Elizabeth Debicki. What exactly they’re getting up to is unspecified, but Rick is pretty sure it’s a “good story.” In fact, it’s too good a story for all the kids and sensitive types watching the biggest football game of the year, so Netflix has made sure it’s been sanitized for our protection, censoring all the substance use, cursing, and copious nudity with faux film scratches, possibly as a partial homage to Pitt’s rogue projectionist Tyler Durden in Fight Club…which was also helmed by The Adventures of Cliff Booth‘s David Fincher. However, despite the censorship, we still get some excellent 1970s action scored to a cover of the classic Peter Gunn theme.
What Do We Know About ‘The Adventures of Cliff Booth’?
Unlike its predecessor, which was written and directed by Quentin Tarantino,
The Adventures of Cliff Booth will be released in select theaters and on Netflix later this year. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.
