The U.S. is filled with landmarks that have infamous histories; 112 Ocean Avenue in Amityville, New York, the notorious house from The Amityville Horror; a secret U.S. Air Force military installation in southern Nevada, associated with rumors of clandestine experiments and secrets about alien life, aka Area 51. But maybe none has the infamy of the long-abandoned United States Penitentiary in the San Francisco Bay, known as “The Rock” — or in this case, Alcatraz.

Alcatraz was hell for those imprisoned there, where discipline was severe and, as one former prisoner recounted, “Men go slowly insane under the exquisite torture of restricted and undeviating routine.” Prisoners died within its walls and remain there, with many accounts of ghosts still haunting its rusty cells and catwalks, 60 years after the last prisoner was escorted out on its closing in 1963. But what if the last prisoners of The Rock weren’t escorted out at all, but simply disappeared? And, mysteriously, reappear in the present day? Such is the premise of Fox’s 2012 TV series Alcatraz.

256 Inmates and 46 Guards From “The Rock” Reappear Years Later in ‘Alcatraz’

“On March 21, 1963, Alcatraz officially closed. All the prisoners were transferred off the island. Only, that’s not what happened. Not at all.” So begins all 13 episodes of Alcatraz, narrated by Jurassic Park alum Sam Neill, who plays FBI agent Emerson Hauser. The J.J. Abrams-produced series is in the vein of shows like The 4400 and Manifest, but unlike those shows, Alcatraz has the draw of its captivating, mystifying namesake. The series begins with 256 inmates and 46 guards disappearing from Alcatraz on March 21, 1963. One of the first to arrive on the scene is young San Francisco police officer Hauser, who discovers they’re missing. To keep the situation undercover, the government states that the prison is being closed for safety reasons, and the inmates have been transferred to prisons across the country.

The disappearance of the prisoners and guards isn’t the only secret the government is keeping quiet about, either. They have also been anticipating their return, with Hauser now the head of a classified government unit set up years before, waiting. So, when the “63s” begin returning to the present day, one by one, not having aged or having any clue about where and when they’ve been over the years (and back to their criminal ways), Hauser’s team is ready. Once captured, the prisoners are brought back to a cellblock, deep in the woods, which is laid out like their former home on Alcatraz Island. Hauser’s team is aided by police detective Rebecca Madsen (Sarah Jones) — whose grandfather, one of the 63s, murders her partner — and by Dr. Diego Soto (Jorge Garcia), an expert on Alcatraz.

‘Alcatraz’ Is Strengthened by Its All-Star Cast

Alcatraz also doesn’t have the convoluted nature of Manifest or Abrams’ previous Lost, which works in its favor. It’s relatively simple — the prisoners reappear one by one, turning the series into a case-of-the-week procedural — with the mystery behind it the overarching narrative. Alcatraz also succeeds thanks to the strength of its cast. Jones is refreshing as Madsen, whose personal connection to the mystery drags her in, but not so pervasively that she becomes a one-note, brooding stereotype who can’t live life until she finds the truth.

She is, in a word, interesting. Garcia shines as a subject matter expert/comic book store owner, attacking the mystery with an almost gleeful exuberance and the series’s best humorous lines. The inmates, too, are strong, including the likes of Mahershala Ali (whose upcoming Jurassic World Rebirth gives him a one-degree separation from Neill) and Rami Malek.

But it’s Sam Neill who is Alcatraz‘s most prominent cast member, and he delivers as only an A-list talent like himself can. His Emerson Hauser is a man on a mission and a man of secrets; a man of great heroism and a man with a dark side behind the prison walls. Neill sells the gravitas of the series’ unbelievable premise, and he’s so good at bringing the enigmatic character to life without even saying a word, betraying his intimate knowledge of what’s happening to the audience alone.

Despite coming out of the gates strong, viewership quickly declined, and Fox pulled the plug after 13 episodes, making the proverbial “Sophie’s Choice” to keep Abrams’ Fringe alive. The series would join a long list of cancelled series whose cliffhanger endings never see a resolution, with Rebecca having been stabbed and presumably dead after flatlining in the hospital. But maybe, just maybe, fiction became fact, and Alcatraz simply disappeared, ready to return to the air as if nothing happened. We’re on to you, Fox.

Alcatraz is available to stream on Tubi in the U.S.

For decades, Alfre Woodard has built a career defined by powerhouse performances, critical acclaim, and a refusal to let Hollywood define her limits. But according to the Oscar-nominated actress, the road to success came with harsh realities, including one painful comment she heard while trying to break into the industry. In a candid new cover story, Alfre Woodard opened up about the racial bias she faced early in her career, revealing that one Black theater actress tried to warn her away from pursuing film altogether.

After graduating from Boston University in 1974 with an acting degree, Woodard told AARP The Magazine that she headed west to Los Angeles, determined to make it as a film actress. But the reception she encountered in Hollywood was far from welcoming. “‘Oh, honey,” she says a Black theater actress warned her. “There’s no such thing as a Black film actress.”

Rather than discouraging her, however, the comment only strengthened Woodard’s resolve. “In my mind, I just went, Well, that’s not my reality,” she recalled.

Woodard Says Hollywood Tried To Box Her In

The Emmy-winning actress revealed that rejection became a painful reality during those early years as she struggled to even land auditions. “I wouldn’t get an audition for nine or 10 months at a time,” Woodard admitted.

Even when roles became available, she said her representatives often dismissed opportunities before she ever had a chance. “When she’d hear about a role, ‘my agents would say, “Oh, Alfre, that’s not for you. It says attractive young Black woman,” she recalled.

At times, Woodard said she was also told she didn’t look like “the right kind of Black,” underscoring the narrow standards Black actresses often faced in Hollywood. Still, she refused to let those barriers define her future.

Instead, the actress focused on preparing herself for the opportunities she believed would eventually come. She explained that she stayed grounded in the belief that “when somebody wanted to invite me into a space with them, that was the kind of person I should be with.”

Faith also became an anchor during difficult moments. Woodard, who has practiced Christian Science since college, leaned into spirituality while navigating an industry that repeatedly shut doors in her face.

Tulsa Roots Helped Shape Alfre Woodard’s Confidence

Long before Hollywood questioned whether she belonged, Woodard said her family in Tulsa, Oklahoma, made sure she knew exactly who she was. Raised by father Marion “MH” Woodard and mother Constance, the actress grew up in a household where confidence and resilience were expected.

“From the time I can remember, my father would say, ‘Nobody, no man in this world, I don’t care who it is, is better than you are,’” Woodard said. “What I got from my family is a strong sense of self, a sense of value.”

Those lessons proved especially powerful growing up during segregation. Tulsa high schools were not desegregated until 1973, but Woodard said she never doubted her voice mattered.

How Tulsa Taught Alfre Woodard Resilience

She also learned early about injustice and perseverance. At just 5 years old, Woodard said her father required the family to watch the nightly news, exposing her to the Civil Rights Movement at a young age. By age 10, she was helping her parents register voters.

Woodard also recalled a pivotal classroom moment in middle school when teachers secretly educated students about the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, an event largely omitted from formal curriculum at the time.

“They told the story of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre,” she recalled, saying the experience helped shape her understanding of survival and strength. “From the passed-along stories of those Black Tulsans who survived the violence and endured. I learned what resilience looked like.”

Alfre Woodard Refused To Let Hollywood Decide Her Future

Despite the setbacks, Woodard’s persistence paid off. After a breakout stage performance in “For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/When the Rainbow Is Enuf,” acclaimed filmmaker Robert Altman cast her in her first film role in “Remember My Name” in 1978 and later again in “HealtH.”

Her breakout film role in “Cross Creek” earned her an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress in 1983, launching a decades-long career that would eventually include four Emmy wins, a Golden Globe, and more than 100 screen credits.

But even now, Woodard says success was never about trophies. “I’m a child of Southern Blackness, a grandchild and a great-grandchild,” she said. “You push and you work because you’re part of the continuum! The trophy is not the thing.”

Adult content creator Bonnie Blue is revealing the detail of her next stunt, which she admits is “disgusting.”

“My fans will be involved in my baby shower, which is happening in June,” Blue, 27, exclusively tells Us Weekly. “To celebrate a wholesome pregnancy, my baby shower will be so special it’ll turn into a golden shower.”

(For the uninitiated, a “golden shower” is a slang term used to describe one person urinating on another person or persons for sexual pleasure or gratification.)

Blue continued, “My fans can cover me in their urine and have sex with me. Traditional baby shower games will be played throughout the day, piñatas and my holes will be getting smashed. My pregnancy has been a community effort and it’ll continue throughout my pregnancy. I don’t want to tear, so I plan on being stretched regularly.”

Former OnlyFans creator Bonnie Blue is giving fans details on her alleged pregnancy. In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly, Blue, 27, said she will be a mom before 2026 ends, revealing her due date is in November and that she has already found out the sex of her baby. “I’ll have a gender reveal […]

In addition to allegedly allowing her fans to pee on her during her baby shower, Blue says she still plans on “auctioning off the baby’s name” to the highest bidder.

Blue (real name Tia Billinger) claimed in February that she was pregnant after having unprotected sex with 400 men as part of her “breeding mission.”

The adult content creator previously admitted to her numerous TikTok followers that the upcoming stunt is considered “pretty disgusting,” even by her standards.

“Get ready with me. And I realized, I’m not setting women back, I’m just setting myself back,” she said in a May 12 video. “And if I’m saying it’s disgusting then… It’s taking something very wholesome, like a pregnancy, and mixing it with something which is very much out there, even for the industry I’m in.”

Courtesy of Bonnie Blue/Instagram OnlyFans creator Bonnie Blue clarified online speculation that she is expecting a baby. “I am not pregnant,” Blue, 25, said in a Thursday, February 20, YouTube video. “I’d say, about a week ago, [there were] rumors about me being pregnant and quite a lot of the media approached me and said, […]

Blue added that she’s been sick throughout her alleged pregnancy, at times needing to “double up” on her anti-nausea medication to get through the day. Still, she continued, her alleged morning sickness “doesn’t mean” she’s “not going to have fun” at her baby shower-turned-sex-stunt event.

“What’s going to be funny about the event, if you were looking up close — like, I’ve just got this particular image in my mind — up close it’s like, that’s quite cute, quite wholesome,” she explained. “Then you’ll pan out and be, like, what the actual f***.”

One year prior to her alleged pregnancy, Blue — who split from estranged husband Oliver “Ollie” Davidson in 2023 — exclusively told Us that she had struggled with fertility.

“I tried to get pregnant for years with my ex-partner and really, really struggled and I’d have to go down the IVF route,” she said at the time. “So I wish I could say I might get pregnant, however, I’m not in that position where I can fall pregnant naturally.”

Brad Pitt is reportedly distraught about the latest development involving his eldest son, Maddox Jolie-Pitt, who has now taken legal steps to drop the actor’s name.

Maddox recently filed documents requesting to go only by his mother Angelina Jolie‘s last name, a move reminiscent of one made by his younger sister, Shiloh Jolie, when she turned 18.

Despite the worsening estrangement from all six of his children, insiders claim Brad Pitt remains hopeful for reconciliation.

According to a new report, Maddox’s decision to officially drop Pitt’s name has completely shattered the actor, as he wished things were different between him and his six children, whom he shares with his ex-wife, Jolie.

“He feels most hurt out of everything that happened with Angie that his children don’t want a public association with his last name,” a source told Us Weekly. “It’s been very difficult.”

Before Jolie met Pitt, she had already adopted Maddox while in Cambodia, a country she had grown fond of due to her time filming the hit movie “Tomb Raider.”

Pitt later legally became Maddox’s father in 2006, a year after starting a relationship with Jolie. The duo went on to have five more kids, Pax, 22, Zahara, 21, Shiloh, 20, and twins, Knox and Vivienne, 17.

Now, according to legal documents, Maddox, 24, is requesting for a name change as he wants to be known as “Maddox Chivan Jolie,” instead of the usual “Jolie-Pitt.”

According to an insider who spoke to the publication, the Oscar winner is optimistic about reuniting with his children, despite the ongoing estrangement.

“[Brad] still does hope and keeps the door open to eventual reconciliation, hopefully with all of them, but it is their decision. He has no power, and he can’t force them,” the insider said.

They further noted that Pitt’s “biggest fear is to be permanently disconnected from the kids because he does want to find a way to make things right.”

“His biggest fear is that too much time is going by, and the more time without something happening, the harder it will be to reconcile,” the insider added.

The Actor’s Circle Claims He Was ‘Alienated’ From His Kids By Their Mother, Angelina Jolie

Shortly before Maddox’s bold move, sources close to Pitt accused Jolie of being the mastermind behind his estrangement from the children.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, an insider claimed that there was a “campaign of alienation [by Jolie] which has been successful.”

“The antagonism is huge,” the source noted. “He has been alienated from the kids completely. It is devastating to him.”

While Pitt’s four adult kids have the right to cut ties with him and can choose not to see him, the actor has court-mandated visits with the twins, Knox and Vivienne, as they are still considered minors.

However, according to the news outlet, Pitt still hardly ever gets to see them, with his busy work schedule recently adding to the challenges.

Brad Pitt Skipped Zahara’s Graduation And Never Reached Out

A recent major family event revealed how bad things had gotten between Pitt and his kids.

The actor was nowhere to be seen at his daughter, Zahara’s graduation from Spelman College, with a source telling TMZ that Pitt never “reached out” or tried to see if he could attend the ceremony.

They further claimed that “nothing prevented him from showing up for her. Or ever visiting her.”

It is worth noting that Zahara made a public move to distance herself from Pitt when she first entered college, opting to use only Jolie’s last name. However, unlike Shiloh and Maddox, she has yet to make this official.

Jolie and all three of her sons, Maddox, Pax, and Knox, were the siblings at the graduation to support Zahara.

Insider Claims Angelina Jolie Made It Difficult For The Actor To Reach Out

Amid the criticism over Pitt’s absence from Zahara’s graduation, a source blasted Jolie, accusing her of creating a situation that made it impossible for the actor to participate in his children’s milestones.

“You can’t have it both ways – to promote a complete estrangement and then criticize someone for not going to an event when you’ve made sure that they would not be welcome,” the source told the Daily Mail. “That’s not a situation which he created.”

They then described Jolie as “evil” and “manipulative” for allegedly driving a wedge between Pitt and the six children.

Besides Zahara’s graduation, Pitt has notably been absent from other major milestones, like his son Knox’s win at a Muay Thai competition on his 17th birthday in 2025.

Shiloh Jolie Dropped Brad Pitt’s Name Once She Turned 18

Maddox is only the second sibling to legally cut ties with Pitt, as the actor’s biological daughter, Shiloh, was the first to kick things off on her 18th birthday.

At the time, a source said Shiloh’s decision was tied to her parents’ custody battle during their bitter divorce, after she and her siblings were prevented from testifying despite Jolie’s request that they be allowed to testify.

“The name change goes back to the custody battle, and Shiloh’s belief that her rights as a victim were violated,” an insider told the Daily Mail. “Shiloh believed she had the right, as a victim of crime, to testify — and was prevented from doing so.”

Shiloh’s lawyer also hinted at this reason, telling People Magazine that the teenager “made an independent and significant decision following painful events.”

The move was said to have deeply “hurt” Pitt, but a source insisted that “he will be there for Shiloh and any of his kids whenever they need, no questions asked.”

Another reality TV star is considering a career in politics.

“I’d like to save lives for the next three to five years, with Archangel centers,” Jersey Shore’s Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino told local New Jersey news outlet News 12 on Thursday, May 28, while attending the VUE Magazine spring edition party in state’s Wall Township.

“I’d like to have an Archangels center in every 50 states [sic], and after that, you know, I will introduce everybody to Governor Situation,” the reality TV star added, seemingly announcing his plans to run for office sometime in the future.

When asked if he would enter the political arena as a Republican or a Democrat, Sorrentino, 43, played coy.

Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino has announced the launch of his own recovery and treatment centers, The Archangel Centers. “If you had told me 10 years ago that the U.S. government would send me to prison, strip me of my passport and voting rights, and hit me with millions in penalties, I would’ve thought it was […]

“I can’t announce it yet, but, uh, I think the, uh, residents of New Jersey would like no property tax,” he responded.

Sorrentino, who has struggled with addiction issues in the past, announced the launch of his own recovery and treatment centers in September 2024.

“If you had told me 10 years ago that the U.S. government would send me to prison, strip me of my passport and voting rights, and hit me with millions in penalties, I would have thought it was game over,” the reality TV star wrote via Instagram at the time. “But here I am — living proof that the comeback is always greater than the setback.”

(Sorrentino spent eight months in federal prison for tax evasion after failing to pay $8.9 million in taxes. He was released in 2019.)

He continued, “Against all odds, I turned my life around. Today, I’m happily married with three amazing kids, a published author, nine years sober, and about to launch my own treatment centers: @thearchangelcenters. What once seemed impossible is now my reality.”

Sorrentino, who married wife Lauren Sorrentino in November 2018, previously opened up to Us Weekly about his substance abuse struggles.

“I had an obsessive personality and everything I did was zero or a hundred,” he told Us in November 2023. “Once you get into that life of excess, whether it’s drugs, women, money, success, a lot of people don’t make it out.”

If Sorrentino should enter into politics, he will join a growing list of reality TV stars who have decided to run for office, including current President Donald Trump, Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy and The Hills alum Spencer Pratt, who is currently running for mayor of Los Angeles.

“Not a reality star,” Lisa Rinna said of Pratt’s mayoral campaign, before evoking Trump and his presidency. “I love him [Pratt], but we’ve already done that. We’re not going to do that again.

While many have denounced Pratt’s campaign citing his reality TV background and lack of experience, others have thrown their weight behind the TV personality.

“I’m actually excited,” Audrina Patridge exclusively told Us on May 1 of her former castmate’s political ambitions. “He impressed me.

Will Whitney Leavitt star in her own reality show after leaving “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives“? That’s what it looks like. The Hulu TV personality recently shared a post on her Instagram stories featuring her with her husband, Conner Leavitt, and appeared to confirm that her new production company was preparing a show focused solely on her and her family in New York City.

Whitney posted a TikTok of her and her husband, Conner, dancing to a viral sound. Over top of the clip, the “SLOMW” reality star wrote, “Y’all keep asking for a Levitt reality show… careful what you wish for.” She also added several emojis—a smirking face, a pair of lurking eyeballs, and a video camera. Whitney captioned the clip: “Levitt Media House Productions has been busy,” followed by the same emojis as above.

According to a previous report from The Blast, Whitney announced that she was starting a production company. Right after that announcement, the mother of three said that the company was already “working on something big!!!!!”

Whitney Leavitt Announced Her Exit From ‘The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives’ In An Epic Way

Whitney rose to fame as part of the group MomTok and garnered even more attention as an original cast member of “SLOMW.” After five seasons, though, Whitney said it was time to say goodbye to the part of her life.

During her final performance as Roxie Hart in the Broadway musical “Chicago,” Whitney announced her exit. “Oh, what is that?” her character, Hart, said in the viral clip. “Whitney Leavitt announces she’s leaving ‘The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.’”

Her exit didn’t come as much of a surprise, considering the fact that she teased her departure in March 2026. “Well, I’m figuring it out in real time,” she said at the time, according to The Blast. “We’re figuring it out together, but it feels like that’s the trajectory of where it’s going.”

Whitney Leavitt Isn’t Sad About Leaving ‘The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives’ In Her Rearview Mirror

While she’s turning the page on an important part of her story, Whitney said she feels confident about her decision to say goodbye.

“It’s been about four years of my life,” she said. “Every time I left, it wasn’t with gratitude. But this time it is. It just feels like a chapter that’s closing in my life. My cup is full, and it just feels like it’s time. So I’m excited.”

She opened up about her departure from the popular series with an Instagram post, saying, “We have been through so much together, even more than what you’ve seen. We’ve had really big highs, really big lows and no matter what happens with our relationships like that is something that will always be a part of our life, will always be a part of my life and I wouldn’t change a thing.”

Speaking with Kelly Clarkson on her show, Leavitt shared a similar message, telling the singer-songwriter that she feels “content.”

“I feel like this is a chapter that’s closing in my life and honestly, I believe that’s how it was always meant to be. I’m so grateful for ‘The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.’ It’s got me where I am today. It’s given me the opportunities that you all have seen but I’m ready. I’m ready for the next chapter and I cannot wait to share with you guys what’s next,” she explained.

The Solo Whitney Reality Show Is Getting Mixed Reviews

Some of Whitney and Conner’s fans have reacted to the news of a possible Leavitt family reality show with glee.

One user posted, “Honestly, this potential New York series seems way more fun. ‘SLOMW’ really dropped the ball when they stopped filming she had so much going on since moving there that people wanted to see.”

Another said, “Yayy, I love this couple! From someone who doesn’t have social media, thanks for posting OP!”

“I will be seated,” said another. “I want to know more about her relationship with Mormonism now.”

However, some of the Redditors shared differing opinions.

Some Aren’t Here For The Levitts Getting Their Own Show

“I’m not saying this in a hating way, genuinely curious if they would have enough content for a show that would be interesting of just her since the slomw is based on like 6 peoples lives and how they interact aka much more content, interesting dynamics, and drama which is largely why people watch,” someone posted.

“A reality show if just them two = boringgggg. A reality show where she is on there with other cast members. Like a slomv nyc spinoff.. sure why not. She can’t hold a show though. She is performative and too animated which screams fake for cameras. If she can’t be vulnerable and REAL, then it won’t go anywhere after 1 season,” said another.

Looks like viewers will just have to wait and see.

Authorities have suspended the search for a man feared to be Alaskan Bush People star Matt Brown.

“Search efforts to locate the male reported deceased in the Okanogan River continued through Friday 5/29/2026,” Sheriff Jodie Barcus said in an updated press release shared via the Office of the Okanogan County Sheriff’s official Facebook account on Saturday, May 30. “Deputies and Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife agent[s] used boats, personal watercraft, sonar and divers to search an expanding area near the last location the male was seen.”

The press release continued, “A canine from Spokane, trained in detection of human remains, was deployed and implements were used to drag the river bottom. The male has not been located; no signs of the male have been located.”

According to authorities, the weather became progressively worse, impeding search efforts to the point they had to be called off until further notice.

TMZ first reported that the Okanogan County Sheriff’s Office received a call on Wednesday, May 27, to report a man sitting in the shallow waters of the Okanogan River in Washington state. The anonymous caller looked away and when they turned back because of a sound, the man was allegedly lying face down in the river and being swept away by the current.

On Saturday, authorities reiterated that “the identity of the male is not confirmed” and it will not be publicly released until next of kin is notified.

“The family is not sure what to believe right now. They are not sure where Matt is but they are hoping that he is OK and that the information is wrong,” a source close to the family told Us Weekly on Friday, May 29. “They are all in contact and speaking to police and waiting to hear. They have had their issues [with Matt] and Gabe has been the person most in contact with him.”

What Started As Friends Hanging Out Ended Tragically

According to the Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office, prosecutors charge 20-year-old Denajah Bailey with third-degree murder, involuntary manslaughter, possessing an instrument of crime, and recklessly endangering another person in connection with the death of 21-year-old Xavier Jeffers.

Authorities allege that on May 20, Bailey, Jeffers, and Amaury Sahad sat inside Bailey’s bedroom in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, and handled a firearm that investigators say Sahad illegally obtained. Prosecutors claim that after Bailey got possession of the weapon, she pointed it at Jeffers while the two were sitting on her bed and pulled the trigger, striking him in the head.

Authorities Say A Witness Was Watching Through FaceTime

Investigators also revealed that a fourth individual was reportedly witnessing parts of the evening through a FaceTime call with Jeffers. According to court documents, the caller allegedly saw the group passing the firearm around and pretending to shoot one another before hearing a gunshot. Reports state that moments later, the phone fell to the floor, and someone could allegedly be heard asking, “What did you do?” Authorities say a 911 call was then placed reporting an accidental shooting.

Investigators Confirm The Gun As Stolen

When officers arrived at the residence, they reportedly found Jeffers suffering from a gunshot wound to the head. Investigators recovered a loaded Glock 43X handgun from the bedroom and later determined the firearm had been reported stolen months earlier in Philadelphia. Authorities also allege that Bailey told investigators she had pulled the trigger on the weapon multiple times earlier in the evening, including once while pointing it at herself, without the gun firing.
