Former NFL player and Bachelor reunion host Emmanuel Acho is weighing in on Taylor Frankie Paul’s controversial casting as the new Bachelorette.

ABC announced last week that it had canceled the new season, which was set to premiere on Sunday, March 22, after TMZ published video footage of Taylor, 31, appearing to throw a chair at ex Dakota Mortensen in the presence of her daughter, Indy, during a 2023 domestic dispute.

On Saturday, March 21, Acho, 35, shared a TikTok video showing off a binder of documents he was given to prepare for the Bachelor season 25 After the Final Rose reunion special, on which he replaced longtime host Chris Harrison, who exited Bachelor Nation that season.

Acho noted how much preparation went into the single episode, suggesting that producers should have been aware of Taylor’s past legal issues.

“This is my point. I hosted one episode, a 44-minute episode, and is how thorough of a job they did in prepping me and looking me up just for one episode,” the former NFL linebacker said, flicking through the binder.

He continued, “You’re talking about schedule, act breakdown, rundown, a whole freaking script just for one episode.”

“So if you’re doing all of this research, all of this preparation, for me to host one episode, imagine the amount of research, imagine the amount of preparation, you have to do to invest the entire season into this woman of Taylor Frankie Paul,” he argued.

Acho reiterated, “All of this, just for me to host a 44-minute episode. You’re not turning over the keys to the franchise to a woman you have not thoroughly, thoroughly, thoroughly vetted. That’s the only point I’m trying to make.”

Taylor’s legal issues following the 2023 incident were public knowledge at the time of her casting as the new Bachelorette. Her February 2023 arrest was documented on the first season of Hulu’s The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. At the time, she pleaded guilty to felony aggravated assault in exchange for dismissing other charges against her.

However, footage of the incident involving Dakota, 33, was published by TMZ on Thursday, March 19, after news broke earlier in the week of another alleged domestic dispute between the exes in February. The Draper Police Department in Utah confirmed to Us Weekly last week that there’s an open “domestic assault investigation” involving Taylor and Dakota and that “allegations have been made in both directions.”

ABC decided to shelve the new season of The Bachelorette later on Thursday.

“Taylor is very grateful for ABC’s support as she prioritizes her family’s safety and security,” a spokesperson for the influencer said in a statement at the time. “After years of silently suffering extensive mental and physical abuse as well as threats of retaliation, Taylor is finally gaining the strength to face her accuser and taking steps to ensure that she and her children are protected from any further harm.”

Taylor Frankie Paul had been honest about her on–off relationship with Dakota Mortensen while filming The Bachelorette. “There were several conversations had [about Taylor’s status with Dakota], and the writing was on the wall,” a source exclusively tells Us Weekly, referring to Taylor and her Bachelorette contestants. “Many feel like their time was wasted.” Taylor, […]

Taylor’s rep added, “There are too many women who are suffering in silence as they survive aggressive, jealous ex-partners who refuse to let them move on with their lives. Taylor has remained silent out of fear of further abuse, retaliation, and public shaming. She is currently exploring all of her options, seeking support and preparing to own and share her story.”

In his own statement to Us, Dakota said, “As anyone who has seen the video will understand, this is a deeply upsetting situation. I am, unfortunately, used to these baseless claims about me and our relationship, which I categorically deny. I am focusing on our son and his safety, and hope that Taylor will do the same.”

Bravo’s “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” is set to return for its 17th season on April 5. Among the cast is fan-favorite Cynthia Bailey, who is back as an official friend of the show. Now, ahead of the show’s premiere, the longtime “RHOA” star is giving an update on Kandi Burruss following her divorce and teasing season 17.

Cynthia Bailey Dishes About The Newbies on ‘RHOA’ Season 17

“Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Bailey recently attended the Truth Awards, held on March 21 in Beverly Hills. While on the carpet for the event, she discussed “RHOA” season 17. First, she was asked for her opinion on the new cast members added to the show, singer K. Michelle and restaurateur Pinky Cole.

According to her, “The newbies are great.” She continued, “You know, K and Pinky are two very different women, so they bring two very different things, and I really enjoyed filming with them.”

From there, she discussed her status on the show, saying, “I come back as an official friend of the show, and I am excited for season 17. I think everybody brought different things, and I think Pinky and K were definitely the right breath of fresh air we needed to just kind of mix it up a little bit.”

When asked specifically what fans can expect from here, Bailey responded, “Well, you know I choose peace, but old fifty Cynt had to pop out a time or two,” alluding to her alter ego featured on earlier seasons of “RHOA” as well as upcoming drama between her and someone on the current cast.

The ‘RHOA’ Legend Also Discussed Kandi Burruss & Her Divorce

Later in the short interview, Bailey was asked about Burruss, who recently finalized her divorce from Todd Tucker after filing in November 2025. Regarding her thoughts on the matter and how her former “RHOA” co-star was coping, she said, “You know what, honestly, I’ve been through two divorces.”

Bailey continued, “Divorce is not easy. Especially when you have young kids involved, so I’m just happy that they had a hell of a run and that they’re on the other side of it. That’s where they need to be.”

When asked if she had spoken to Burruss, she said she saw her in Broadway’s “& Juliet” and that they had dinner. Bailey continued, “She’s in great spirits. She’s doing the best you can do. Again, divorce is not easy.”

Fans Love Cynthia Bailey As A Friend Of The Show

Bailey has a long history with “The Real Housewives of Atlanta.” She joined the show as a full-time housewife for its third season. She then left the show after its 13th season in 2021 before returning as an official friend of the show for its 16th.

Because she’s such a fan-favorite, many are reacting to her updates about “RHOA” season 17. One person wrote on Instagram, “She is so pretty.” Another fan said, “I wasn’t a big fan of Cynthia as a full HW, but I do absolutely love her as a ‘friend of.’”

Someone else wrote, “Good. I love Cynthia. She was a great support last season.” Lastly, another “RHOA” fan referenced her alter ego, saying, “We love 50 Cynt, child.”

Cynthia Previously Teased Being Activated In ‘RHOA’ Season 17

Bailey interviewed with Ricky Cornish in November 2025, briefly discussing some of the drama fans can expect when “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” returns for season 17 and how she was more in the mix than she was last year.

She explained, “I think last season was my free ride. They’re like, ‘Oh, she’s just a friend. Don’t mind her.’ But this season, I’m kind of being pulled in. I didn’t really want to pick a side last season.” After that, she stated that she had to “lean toward one side” this time around.

Bailey continued, “That’s kind of tricky. I’ve been catching a few strays already. I realized that my butt is not off limits.” Later, she joked that she may need to be a full-time housewife again after having delivered so much for the upcoming season.

Bravo Released The Trailer In February

As mentioned, “RHOA” returns to Bravo on April 5 at 8/7c. Ahead of the season, the network unveiled the highly anticipated trailer, teasing what’s to come from the cast. In addition to Bailey, Michelle, and Cole, Porsha Williams, Drew Sidora, Phaedra Parks, Angela Oakley, Shamea Morton, and Kelli Ferrell will star.

According to Bravo, Andy Cohen teased the season on “Radio Andy.” He said, “It’s a real group, but when I tell you, I was cackling at the premiere. Now, I had seen it and we had a little, you know, I watch the cuts and we give notes and there was work to be done, but I was like, ‘Wow, this is super promising.’But boy, I’m five episodes into ‘Atlanta,‘ cuts, and it’s a delight.”

Concept albums are not a new phenomenon in the music industry. It has been around for decades, popularized by legendary musical acts like Pink Floyd, David Bowie, and Frank Sinatra. In the contemporary era, there are few artists — within and beyond the rock genre — who have dared to be brave enough to explore such ambitious terrain. Yes, while it remains one of the most interesting parts of music, it also proved to be one of the most ambitious; it demands cohesive and strong storytelling.

Of course, how a concept album is received will always depend on listeners. There were releases deemed to be overly ambitious, some had divisive opinions, while others received critical re-evaluation years later. And then some were greatly received upon their release, and are still celebrated to this day. We’ve already covered the 10 best classic rock concept albums of all time. Still, the three albums cited below deserve to be recognized as great concept albums for their successful execution, storytelling, and enduring power.

‘American Idiot’ (2004)

Artist: Green Day

Considered Green Day‘s most daring album yet, American Idiot will forever be remembered as the band’s greatest masterpiece. A politically-charged protest record, the band’s seventh studio album is inspired by America’s political climate at the time, particularly events like the Iraq War, 9/11, and George W. Bush‘s presidency. The album also marked a significant shift in Green Day’s sound, moving away from their early pop-punk style and embracing a more mature, ambitious approach.

American Idiot not only solidified Green Day’s place as one of the most influential rock acts of the 21st century but also redefined the punk rock genre for a new generation. It was a massive success, sold millions of copies worldwide, and won the Best Rock Album at the 47th Annual Grammy Awards. Additionally, American Idiot also topped the Billboard 200 in its first week and spawned a total of four Billboard Hot 100 singles. Its impact traversed beyond the music realm, as it even inspired a Broadway rock musical of the same name and further cemented its legacy in pop culture and in the world of theater.

‘The Black Parade’ (2006)

Artist: My Chemical Romance

By the time My Chemical Romance released their third studio album, they had already established themselves as 2000s rock’s major players with their earlier releases, like “Helena,” “I’m Not Okay (I Promise),” and “Thank You for the Venom.” But it wasn’t until 2006 that their magnum opus arrived in the form of The Black Parade. As one of the pioneers of the emo genre, My Chemical Romance released an album that’s not only unapologetically emo but one that hugely defined 2000s rock. And, judging solely by the album name, the album contains some of the darkest songs the band has ever written.

Who’s Your Perfect Classic Rock Band?

The Black Parade went on to become their biggest album yet and was considered by many critics to be their best album, specifically praised for its concept. Following the character named “The Patient,” the entire album explores themes of death, memory, and, ultimately, acceptance, as The Patient slowly deteriorates due to cancer. It is, of course, praised by its fan-favorite tracks “I Don’t Love You,” “Cancer,” “Mama,” “Teenagers,” and “Famous Last Words.” But it was the theatricality and storytelling of The Black Parade that elevated it to critical acclaim.

‘Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band’ (1967)

Artist: The Beatles

The Beatles had nothing to prove when Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band arrived in 1967. They are already deemed one of the biggest (if not the biggest) bands in music history, and cemented their reputation as a legendary musical act with their first seven albums. But the Fab Four proved they could reinvent themselves with the release of their eighth studio album, this time without the pressure of fame caused by Beatlemania. A concept album conceived as a theatrical performance, the record centers on a fictional band, designed to give them artistic liberation by adopting alter egos.

Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band was widely praised for its cohesive songwriting, innovative production, and unified artistic vision. It became a major cultural phenomenon and played a key role in elevating pop music’s artistic ambitions. It helped popularize the idea of the album as a curated, immersive listening experience rather than just a collection of singles.

LisaRaye McCoy has sparked mixed reactions following her recent wardrobe refresh.

LisaRaye McCoy Shows Off Her Recent Wardrobe Refresh

Last week, a joint post was shared via wardrobe stylist Nikko and McCoy’s Instagram accounts. Furthermore, the initial joint post showed McCoy talking about her style and what she loves most about it. In the caption, Nikko noted that he would be “styling looks using only pieces from her wardrobe to show her just how many directions her all-white style can go—with the right strategy behind it.”

In the second joint post, Nikko explained that he went into McCoy’s closet and restyled some pieces.

“Using only pieces she already owns, I styled 11 completely new looks—combinations she had never worn before. Because when you understand how to rework what you already have, your closet stops feeling limited and starts feeling limitless. This is what intentional styling looks like,” he captioned the footage.

Ultimately, the footage left one social media user in TSR’s comment section, writing, “God took his time with Lisa Raye! Forever fine! ”

In 2016, Jeff Nichols quietly united Michael Shannon, Adam Driver, and Joel Edgerton at the exact moment all three were sharpening the acting skills that would later define their careers. It wasn’t in a blockbuster, but in Midnight Special.A science fiction chase movie with the DNA of Steven Spielberg existing throughout, the film was not a box office success, telling its story with a whisper among the noisy blockbusters of that year. However, ten years on, the movie still holds up and deserves to have more people take its journey.

A Thrilling Story of Family, Mystery, and Survival

Shannon and Edgerton play Roy and Lucas, two men who have abducted a young boy named Alton (Jaeden Martell). It emerges that Roy is Alton’s father, and the two men are rescuing him from a religious cult in Texas, who are interested in the boy due to his supernatural powers. As the escape turns into a chase between them and government agencies, the two men and their precious cargo look to find the source and explanation of Alton’s power.

Whereas most movies weigh down the plot with exposition, Nichols’ film respects the audience’s intelligence, setting the scene with atmosphere rather than spectacle and rewarding patience with revelations at the right time. While most sci-fi films dazzle you with expensive special effects, here the characters are the main attractions. There’s a beating heart to the story that goes beyond the mystery, celebrating parental love and the power of following your conscience.

Three Blockbuster Villains as You Won’t Have Seen Them Before

Were it released today, the film’s main trio of Shannon, Driver, and Edgerton would have generated a lot of hype, but all three actors were early in their ascent. Just five years after his first film role in 2011’s J. Edgar, Driver was on the ascent, having been cast as the lead antagonist of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Coming around three months after that behemoth, those who had just discovered the actor had a chance to see him in something more intricate. As Paul Sevier, the NSA agent on their tail, he serves as a midpoint between the men on the run and the mysterious cult, playing the role of law enforcement with more sensitivity than is usually seen in this type of movie.

Shannon, too, takes the opportunity to deliver something a lot more tender than mainstream audiences might expect. At that time, his highest profile roles were as the villainous Zod in 2013’s Man of Steel, as well as the ruthless, repressed prohibition agent Nelson Van Alden in HBO series Boardwalk Empire. As Roy, however, there is a softness to his bravery. Clearly devoted to his son, he promises, “I’ll always worry about you, Alton. That’s the deal.” Amid the strangeness and danger of their situation, Shannon is the emotional anchor, showing a different side to his range.

For Edgerton, Lucas was a chance to showcase the steady, everyman appeal he would bring to later roles. Best known at that point at the brutish Tom Buchanan in Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby, Lucas is a loyal friend who risks himself for what’s right, with a quietly impressive performance that would be echoed in later work such as Loving, and the Oscar-nominated Train Dreams.

The Best Steven Spielberg Movie He Never Made

Nearly everyone who has seen the film has pointed to its similarity to the work of Steven Spielberg, particularly films such as Close Encounters of the Third Kind, and E.T. Movies that had fantastical elements but still retained a human core, that followed ordinary people through extraordinary circumstances.

It’s not just the broader themes that have the great man’s influence, however, as many subjects feel parallel to those early classics. Nichols, who acknowledged that those movies are “built into my DNA” while promoting the film, builds a science fiction chase movie where government paranoia is rife, and the paranormal element is not always entirely known or explained. The ending in particular, in which we see the world Alton belongs to, is revealed just enough to be satisfactory, but leaves as many questions as answers. One might say the same of the ending of Close Encounters, where the audience sees the aliens they have been hearing of, but their intentions are not entirely explained.

The film is also centered on a child’s experience, and the kind of wonder that made an entire generation fall in love with the movies. Jaeden Martell feels right at home in this sense, making Alton a rounded character while still preserving the innocence we all felt at his age.

A decade on, Midnight Special remains a wonder of science fiction filmmaking, and a rarity in Jeff Nichols’ filmography as he moved to different genres. The director would go on to work with Edgerton and Shannon in the historical drama Loving, released later that year, while embracing the legend of the biker movie, making Austin Butler a Marlon Brando-esque antihero in 2023’s The Bikeriders. However, fans of his work will still point to this gem as a highlight that deserves to be explored by new audiences.Midnight Special is available to rent or buy on VOD services.

Alan Ritchson is at the center of a shocking neighborhood dispute that has quickly spiraled into a police matter. 

The “Reacher” star is being accused of turning a heated exchange over motorcycle noise into a physical confrontation, with video of the incident now circulating online. 

As claims of punches, kicks, and injuries emerge, the situation has drawn growing attention, especially with witnesses nearby and law enforcement now actively looking into what happened.

Alan Ritchson Dispute With Neighbour Allegedly Started Over Motorcycle Noise

A TMZ report has revealed that Alan Ritchson was involved in a heated confrontation with a neighbor identified as Ronnie Taylor in a Nashville suburb.

According to the neighbor, the issue began a day earlier when the actor was riding his green Kawasaki motorcycle through the area in a way that he claims was disruptive. 

Taylor alleged that the bike was being driven at high speed, with loud revving that disturbed the otherwise quiet surroundings.

The situation quickly became heated, with both men allegedly exchanging gestures during that first encounter. While that moment did not turn physical, it appears to have set the stage for what happened next.

Taylor claims the following day brought a repeat of the same behavior, this time with two children present on motorbikes nearby. 

Frustrated, he confronted the actor directly, saying, “Can you f**king stop this please,” a moment he says immediately escalated tensions.

Ritchson Accused Of Punching And Kicking During Physical Confrontation

After that confrontation, Taylor alleges that Alan Ritchson became physical. He claims the actor struck him in the face and kicked him during the altercation. 

According to his account, the situation intensified after Ritchson fell from his motorcycle, got back up, and continued engaging.

Taylor further alleged that he was hit in the back of the head during the scuffle and was struck multiple times after ending up on the ground. 

He stated that he was hit “at least 4 times,” leaving him with visible injuries, including bruising and swelling.

The neighbor maintains that several people in the area witnessed parts of the confrontation. Despite the claims of injury, he said he did not go to the hospital afterward.

Authorities have confirmed that an investigation involving the duo is currently underway, though no arrests have been made so far.

The Alan Ritchson Altercation Video Goes Viral On Instagram 

TMZ shared the video of the altercation on their Instagram page, and it sparked a ton of reaction from fans. 

Some users were convinced the encounter wasn’t real, but a scene for a new series.

“Must be a new series being filmed lol,” one person wrote while another commented, “This gotta be a scene.” A third fan with similar sentiments also shared, “Naaah this is from set Reacher season 4.”

Some fans also slammed Ritchson for his actions, noting that he should have conducted himself better in front of the kids. 

“Violence in front of children is child abuse. No one ever mentions the kids, who will be the most affected by seeing adults behaving inappropriately,” one person wrote.

Another shared, “Irrespective of what, acts of violence in front of your children is a no no no. Call your cops immediately.”

Fans Bash TMZ For Portraying Ritchson As Bad

Many users also took Alan Ritchson’s side. They slammed TMZ for cutting the clip short and posting a clickbait without context. 

One user wrote, “Alan is a good dude, the neighbor must have deserved it, we didn’t see the whole thing and I think that was on purpose.”

Another commented, “Of course you guys don’t have the part that shows what caused it and automatically assume it’s all his fault. Not surprised by a clickbait channel.”

A third fan shared, “Yeah what happened before that don’t jump into conclusions before you have the full TRUE FACTS and not manipulative media coverage.”

A fourth person also noted, “Something happened that’s not being shown because I’ll be damned if my bikes on the floor. A kickstand takes 1 second to pop out.”

Alan Ritchson’s Career Continues Amid Off-Screen Controversy

While Ritchson faces scrutiny over the alleged incident, his professional career remains on a strong trajectory.

The actor rose to widespread recognition through “Reacher,” the hit Prime Video series based on Lee Child’s novels. 

The show became a major success, reaching the top spot on Nielsen’s streaming rankings and among the platform’s most-watched and most-binged originals in both the U.S. and globally. Its popularity led to a quick renewal and expanded opportunities for the actor.

Ritchson also recently starred in the Netflix movie “War Machine,” in which he plays Army Sergeant “81,” a RASP trainee caught in a brutal survival fight when aliens invade during a mock combat exercise.

Tisha Campbell Goes To Hollywood For New Smile

Campbell shared the video about her teeth on March 20, in collaboration with Dr. Ben Reyhani, whose office performed the procedure. His aesthetic and anti-aging dentistry practice is based in West Hollywood, California. Reyhani appears in the video, saying Tisha is “very happy” with her top teeth, but didn’t feel the same about the bottom. She then explained that the gaps in the bottom row have “always bothered” her, and it was getting worse. So, she chose Reyhani to give her veneers. In the video, Tisha Campbell had already done the necessary x-rays and impressions, and it was the day to get her veneers in. Her first reaction in the mirror was “Aww, it’s so good.”

Dwyane Wade’s recent trip to Japan delivered more than just scenic views and cultural moments, but also included a split-second scare that could have ended very differently. 

While enjoying time abroad with Gabrielle Union, the former NBA legend found himself in a potentially dangerous situation that was quickly avoided thanks to his wife’s sharp instincts. 

What followed was a mix of laughter, reflection, and emotional encounters that added deeper meaning to their journey.

Dwyane Wade Nearly Suffers Accident Before Gabrielle Union Steps In

During their vacation, Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union explored Japan, visiting Osaka and immersing themselves in the local culture, moments Wade often shares through his personal video content on his Wynetwork on Instagram.

However, one outing nearly turned dangerous. While riding on a boat, Wade became distracted as they approached a low bridge. 

Unaware of how close he was, he nearly collided with it, putting himself at risk of serious injury.

Thankfully, his wife reacted instantly by alerting him. Her quick awareness prevented what could have been a painful accident, shifting the moment from alarming to amusing once the danger passed.

Afterward, she joked about her role in saving the situation, telling him, “I saved your life!”

Social Media Reacts To The Scary Incident

Fans couldn’t hold back their words as they trooped to the comments section shortly after the video was posted. 

Many asked Dwyane Wade to be thankful, adding that Gabrielle Union was brought into his life for a reason.

“Higher powers acted right there. That was a special moment for real, for that to be captured on camera is craziness,” one person wrote.

Another commented, “That’s your soul mate bro! God put her here for this very moment! And of course so many more moments but that’s divine intervention.”

A third fan added, “He didn’t look or anything. He just listened to his wife and put his head down…thank you Gabby!!”

Other offended fans criticized Wade for being overly immersed in his phone. One person wrote, “Yal worse than these damn kids. Put the damn phone down and give it a break. You’ll live longer I guarantee it.”

Another stated, “Let’s also think about this that if he wasn’t on his phone, he’d have seen that…phone and internet will destroy a lot of lives in the future than save it.”

Dwyane Wade’s Japan Trip Takes Emotional Turn After Fan Encounter

Beyond the near-miss, Wade experienced a powerful interaction that added a deeper layer to the trip. 

While documenting their journey for his series “On The Fly,” Wade was filming Union when a local man approached him using a translation app. The message he shared carried unexpected weight.

“Excuse me. I had surgery… for stage three cancer two years ago. And your experience gave me courage,” the man said in the Instagram clip.

The moment stopped both Wade and Union in their tracks. As the fan expressed gratitude, he added, “Many, many thank you,” before continuing on, leaving the couple visibly emotional.

Wade struggled to find the right words, initially reacting with, “Oh, wow. That’s really… oh, wow. It’s not just… ” before turning to his crew and saying, “It’s bigger than basketball, brother.”

He then made sure to respond with encouragement, telling the man, “Glad you’re okay. Yes. Glad you’re here with us, and you survived and you look good.”

Wade Opens Up About His Own Cancer Battle And Surgery

The exchange carried even more meaning, given Dwyane Wade’s own health journey. 

In early 2025, the former Miami Heat star publicly revealed that he had undergone surgery after doctors discovered a tumor on his kidney during a medical checkup.

The diagnosis came after he sought answers for ongoing symptoms, including stomach discomfort and changes in urination. 

Reflecting on that moment, he recalled questioning per PEOPLE, “Why is my piss coming out slow, why is my stream ain’t powerful? Why is it a little weak?”

Further testing revealed a concerning mass, leading doctors to recommend surgery. Ultimately, nearly 40% of his kidney was removed, and the tumor was confirmed to be cancerous.

The experience forced Wade to confront vulnerability in a way he hadn’t before. “The moment I was by myself, I was struggling, dog,” he admitted, describing one of the most difficult periods of his life.

As Wade reflected on his journey, the health scare reinforced the realization that his influence extended far beyond the court.

He described how the experience reshaped his perspective, especially when it came to family. 

“What I saw in the midst of me going through my illness, I saw my family that may not always talk, may not always agree. I saw everybody show up for me and be there for me and in that process,” he said.

Despite the difficulty, the moment revealed something deeper. “In my weakness I found strength in my family,” Wade added. 

Wade, who shares children with multiple partners and is also a guardian to his nephew, emphasized how those relationships became central during his recovery.
