Tori Spelling is leaving the door open for a potential podcast return.

Finally speaking up after she walked away from the “90210MG” podcast, which she has co-hosted with her longtime friend Jennie Garth since 2020. The actress announced via social media that she was stepping away from the podcast to focus on other things.

Tori Spelling’s exit came as a shock to fans who ultimately raised questions about whether there’s been a rift in the hosts’ friendship.

Spelling has finally opened up about her surprising exit from her and Garth’s podcast, which they began together over five years ago. Revealing her stance on the future, the actress noted that a return is not completely off the books for her.

She opened up to fans while appearing on an Instagram Live with one of her former “Beverly Hills, 90210” co-stars, Brian Austin Green, on Wednesday. The pair answered fans’ questions during the Live, including one from a fan asking whether she would return to the podcast.

Green, helping Spelling answer the question, shared that she needed time to “gather her thoughts” before chiming in that she should “never say never” about a return.

As reported by TMZ, the actress liked her co-star’s answer before adding a sprinkle of her own thoughts. She stated that she would like to “really reflect” and “assess” the matter so she can speak her truth “in a thoughtful way” rather than reactively.

Are The Former Podcast Hosts At Loggerheads?

While many headlines have suggested there seems to be a rift in the longtime besties’ friendship, neither of them has confirmed the speculation. A source, however, disclosed that the pair had been at odds in recent months before Spelling announced she was done with the show at the end of July.

Insiders also claim that the issue has run so deep that their friendship could be over forever. On the Instagram Live, the actress was vocal about her support for the podcast and Garth. She encouraged fans to keep watching the show even though she was no longer on it.

Spelling also expressed that she has “love” for Garth and the “90210MG” producer, Amy Sugarman, who had stepped in to fill her shows. The show must go on, and Sugarman, by temporarily taking Spelling’s co-hosting spot, ensures the podcast does not face an unexpected hiatus.

Jennie Garth Supports Her Longtime Friends’ Decision

An insider close to the pair alleged that “Jennie is not a friend to Tori. Tori introduced her to every connection she has, and then she bailed on Tori and told her she was bad for her brand because of all the negative press about her.” 

The Blast reported that the same source also claimed that Garth is a “rude person” who doesn’t take the time to check on her friend when she gets hospitalized.

Despite the rumors, Garth expressed that she was happy for Spelling and “excited for her to choose herself.” She clarified that although it was a sad turn of events since they started the show together, she holds no bitterness towards the actress for walking away.

Sugarman doubled down on Garth’s thought, stressing that Spelling made the decision and informed the team two weeks before they went public with the news. She added that everyone is rooting for the actress as she goes on to explore other opportunities.

The ‘Beverly Hills 90210’ Alum Puts Her Health First

Last year, while many fans were gearing up for the “90s After Dark Party” at Voltaire, initially scheduled for December 28, their excitement was cut short when the event was canceled. The Las Vegas party could not be held as scheduled after Spelling announced she had fallen ill.

She shared that she had been counting down the days leading up to the event to see her fans before her health took a turn for the worse. The decision not to push through with the show was admittedly hard for the actress.

Spelling stated that she had to “listen” to her body and “choose” her health, and thanked fans for “always showing me so much love and understanding.” The Blast reported that fans resonated with her decision, expressing their disappointment but applauding her stance on prioritizing her health.

Tori Spelling Previously Opened Up About Her Health Struggles

Nearly two months after the Las Vegas party incident, the actress finally detailed the health challenges she faced that led to the cancellation of the show. She disclosed that the sickness took a toll on her physical and mental well-being, as she could not work during that period.

Spelling revealed that the health challenge deeply affected her regular daily activities to the point that she needed help to walk to the bathroom to pee. She praised her five children and ex-husband, Dean McDermott, for being supportive during that period, as well as Garth for holding down the fort with their podcast.

As shared by The Blast, Spelling said she battled the worst flu-like symptoms from an illness that started in her sinuses before spreading to her Eustachian tube (found in the inner part of the ear). She worked her path to recovery with multiple rounds of antibiotics and a nasal rinse with medications.

Will Tori Spelling maintain or change her stance?

Perez Hilton reflected on his well-being just five weeks before he was hospitalized after appearing to self-harm during a TikTok livestream.

In a June YouTube vlog, Hilton, 48, told his followers that he was preparing to move with his three children — Mario, 13, Mia, 11, and Mayte, 8 — from Las Vegas to his native Miami.

A week later, the celebrity blogger shared a short vlog titled, “I Fell Off The Wagon – In Every Sense! BUT,” in which he shared that he was getting back to the gym and reading the Bible after a stressful move.

“I fell off the wagon in every sense, but I’m back. I went to the gym this morning for the first time in weeks,” Hilton said in the June 28 video. “I also went to church today for the first time in weeks. I also read my bible today for the first time in weeks.”

Rockstar Games has officially announced Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look, giving fans their biggest preview of the highly anticipated open world crime epic ahead of its November launch.

The showcase will premiere on Thursday, August 27 at 3:00 p.m. ET exclusively on Netflix, before becoming available later that evening on Rockstar’s official YouTube channel and GTA VI website. It’s the first time Rockstar has partnered with Netflix for a major game reveal, making the presentation one of the company’s most unique marketing moves to date.

While Rockstar hasn’t revealed exactly how long the presentation will be, the company says the event will offer an “extended look” at Grand Theft Auto VI, fueling speculation that fans will finally get an in-depth gameplay demonstration rather than another cinematic trailer.

What Fans Can Expect

Although Rockstar is keeping the contents under wraps, the timing makes perfect sense.

With Grand Theft Auto VI scheduled to launch on November 19, 2026 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, the game is entering the final stretch of its marketing campaign. Industry analysts have long expected Rockstar to begin revealing gameplay systems, open world activities, and more details about protagonists Jason and Lucia as release day approaches.

Fans are hoping the presentation includes:

• A full gameplay walkthrough
• More details on Vice City and the state of Leonida
• New story footage featuring Jason and Lucia
• Information on weapons, vehicles, and customization
• A closer look at GTA Online’s future

Rockstar has confirmed none of these features, but they’re among the most requested reveals from the community.

GTA VI [rockstar games]

A Different Marketing Strategy

Rockstar has always taken an unconventional approach to marketing its biggest releases, but partnering with Netflix for early access is a surprising first.

Netflix subscribers will be able to watch the presentation six hours before it arrives on Rockstar’s own channels, highlighting the growing relationship between gaming and streaming platforms.

The announcement also comes after months of intense speculation surrounding a third trailer and gameplay reveal, with fans closely watching every Rockstar update for clues about when the marketing campaign would truly begin.

The Countdown Is On

After years of anticipation, leaks, delays, and record-breaking trailers, Rockstar appears ready to pull back the curtain on what many expect to be one of the biggest game launches in entertainment history.

With less than three months remaining until release, Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look could finally answer many of the questions fans have been asking since the game’s reveal.

Stephen Colbert is reportedly dealing with another setback involving CBS, this time through his daughter, Madeleine Carlisle. 

After spending years building a career within the network’s respected news division, Carlisle is said to be moving on from “60 Minutes.” 

Her reported exit comes as the flagship program continues to grapple with major internal changes, adding another departure to a period of upheaval that has already seen several prominent figures leave the newsroom.

According to Status, Stephen Colbert’s daughter has decided to leave CBS’s flagship news magazine, “60 Minutes,” after four years as an associate producer. 

Although her latest role began in 2022, her history with the program dates back even further. 

Carlisle first joined the broadcast as an intern in 2017 before expanding her journalism résumé with positions at “The Atlantic” and TIME Magazine. 

She later returned to “60 Minutes” in a production role, spending several years working behind the scenes at one of television’s most recognizable investigative news programs. 

Colbert’s Daughter Exits As ‘60 Minutes’ Continues To Navigate Major Upheaval

Stephen Colbert’s daughter’s reported departure arrives as “60 Minutes” continues to weather significant internal disruption. 

Status described the situation as an ongoing “brain drain,” with multiple producers reportedly leaving the program in the wake of a sweeping newsroom shake-up. 

The turmoil followed the May dismissal of several high-profile journalists and producers during a day staff members reportedly nicknamed “Black Thursday.” 

Among those who exited were correspondents Sharyn Alfonsi and Cecilia Vega, along with executive producer Tanya Simon and executive editor Draggan Mihailovich. 

The changes came after Paramount Skydance CEO and Chairman David Ellison appointed The Free Press founder Bari Weiss as editor-in-chief of CBS News in October 2025. 

Weiss assumed the role despite having no previous broadcast news experience, a decision that continues to fuel conversation.

Stephen Colbert Shared Why The End Of ‘The Late Show’ May Have Been A Blessing

Carlisle’s exit comes months after the network pulled the plug on her father’s top-rated “Late Show,” ending Colbert’s 11-season run after CBS called the cancellation a “purely financial decision.”

Ahead of the final broadcast in May, the comedian reflected on his own farewell to “The Late Show” and why, in hindsight, the cancellation may have been an unexpected blessing. 

Speaking to PEOPLE, Colbert admitted he never expected his run to end when it did. However, he shared that CBS may have “saved my life,” explaining that hosting the nightly program “takes a lot of bone marrow.” 

He compared his uncertainty about the future to being “a college senior” preparing to graduate, saying he now had the time and energy to pursue long-delayed creative projects, including co-writing a new “Lord of the Rings” film with his son Peter, while remaining open to the next chapter.

Stephen Colbert also opened up about what he planned to do after the end of the show. The 62-year-old told PEOPLE that his first days away from CBS would be centered on family milestones rather than another career move. 

The television personality said he would spend the day after the final episode traveling to Washington, D.C., with his eight siblings and their spouses for his brother Tommy’s wedding. 

Colbert joked that the family celebration would involve singing and getting “drunk,” adding that he loved the fact that the spotlight would no longer be on him. 

“The next day focus is not on me, focus is on my brother. So much better,” he said. 

Stephen Colbert Returns To TV After CBS Farewell With Unexpected New Gig

Contrary to his words, Colbert wasted little time stepping back into the host’s chair. As The Blast reported, just one day after the CBS finale aired, the host made a surprise return to late-night television with a familiar yet unexpected appearance on the Michigan public access show “Only in Monroe.”

The appearance carried special significance because Colbert had previously visited the same program in 2015 as part of a playful “dry run” before taking over “The Late Show.”

During the episode, Colbert leaned into the shift between hosting one of late night’s biggest shows and returning to a local community program. 

He delivered a Michigan-focused monologue, covered local stories, and reunited with regular “Only in Monroe” hosts Michelle Baumann and Kaye Lani Rae Rafko Wilson.  

Jack White joined him as the show’s musical director, while other celebrity appearances helped turn the unexpected comeback into an event that felt both nostalgic and deliberately low-key.

Perez Hilton’s podcast cohost, Chris Booker, has broken his silence after the blogger’s troubling livestream and subsequent hospitalization.

“I am so profoundly sad for Perez and his family and what they’re all going through. It’s truly unimaginable,” Booker, 55, wrote via Instagram on Wednesday, August 5. “I have only spoken briefly with the family. I read the statement that his team released and want to honor their wishes at this impossible time.”

He went on, “Even the family is struggling to get updates due to the confidential security measures in place at the hospital because of how many people are trying to get information.”

The two have collaborated on a podcast “The Perez Hilton Podcast with Chris Booker” since 2015, with the show revolving around the pair breaking down trending entertainment and breaking news.

Booker advised fans that any updates on Hilton’s condition will be posted via the blogger’s website. He also addressed the future of their podcast.

“It’s all TBD at the moment as our collective focus is on his health. I certainly hope to continue [the podcast and Patreon] with my friend when the time is appropriate,” he stressed. “I will give updates there when the time is right. We’ve done these shows for over a decade now and the support from our listeners has been resounding.”

Booker concluded, “[Perez] is very loved. I can only hope he feels it. Heal up friend.”

On Tuesday, August 4, Miami-Dade police received multiple welfare calls after Hilton, 48, went live via TikTok, streaming disturbing acts of self-harm in what authorities have described as a “possible suicide” attempt.

“The Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office received multiple calls regarding an individual who was live-streaming acts of self-harm on social media,” a department spokesperson told Us. “Deputies quickly located the individual’s residence, where they spoke with family members on scene, and confirmed he was alone inside.”

Their statement continued, “In many incidents involving a person experiencing a mental health crisis or actively harming themselves, deputies prioritize deescalation by creating time, distance and opportunities for communication. At this time, deputies have tactfully disengaged while continuing to monitor the situation.”

Jax Taylor is coming out swinging after ex Brittany Cartwright spilled details on their relationship during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.

“The amount of blatant lies in this interview is unbelievable,” Jax, 47, commented on an Instagram post shared by WWHL from Brittany’s interview on the Wednesday, August 5, episode of the Bravo talk show.

In the interview, Brittany, 37, alleged that her estranged husband recently missed parenting time with their son, Cruz, 5, because he was in Canada with the couple’s former publicist Lori Krebs, who Jax is now dating.

“I have NEVER missed my scheduled parenting time with Cruz. It’s public record that I have him every Wednesday and on weekends, and I was back in LA yesterday (Tuesday),” Jax wrote.

Brittany Cartwright isn’t mincing words when it comes to reflecting on ex-husband Jax Taylor’s romance with her former publicist Lori Krebs. “I’m shaking,” Cartwright, 37, told People in a video interview published on Wednesday, August 5. “I mean, this person was not only my publicist, she was like a sister to me for 10 years.

“Today, you refused to let me have my scheduled time with him because you’re angry over personal matters, and that’s why we have an emergency court hearing tomorrow since you continue to weaponize my son against me,” Jax claimed. “The truth will come out about everything when I finally have the opportunity to speak… and I have the receipts to back up everything I’m saying.”

Us has reached out to Brittany’s management for comment.

On Wednesday’s WWHL, Brittany shared how she found out that her ex is dating their former publicist. (Brittany filed for divorce from the Vanderpump Rules alum in August 2024.)

“[Lori] sent me a text message, morning of [the release of photos of her and Jax vacationing in Mexico], two hours before the TMZ photos came out and let me know that things had changed and that she knows I will feel betrayed,” Brittany said. “[Lori said] she loves me and [Brittany and Jax’s son, Cruz] and she’s never told Jax anything.

“I’m shaking,” Brittany said in an interview with People published on Wednesday. “I mean, this person was not only my publicist, she was like a sister to me for 10 years. It’s just complete, complete betrayal.”

However, a source told Us on Wednesday, “Lori understands why Brittany feels betrayed. But the narrative that they were still ‘like family’ when this all happened isn’t accurate. Brittany and Lori haven’t been close in a very long time. Their relationship had changed significantly. They saw each other only a couple of times in the past year, never spoke outside of work, and Lori’s role had been reduced primarily to coordinating media interviews. She had already been trying to transition away from representing Brittany because she increasingly felt caught in the middle of an extremely difficult situation.”

“Throughout Jax’s addiction and recovery, Lori supported both of them in different ways. As Jax made progress and focused on rebuilding his life, the professional and personal dynamics shifted,” the source added. “None of that changes the fact that Lori understands Brittany’s hurt, but the picture being painted of their relationship at the time isn’t an accurate one.”
