Britney Spears is once again at the center of public attention after revealing her desire to have another child.

The comment has reportedly sparked concern among some family members and friends, who believe the singer is serious and question whether now is the right time for such a major decision.

At the same time, reports suggest Britney Spears has been making progress in her recovery, strengthening her relationship with her sons and pushing back against renewed scrutiny over her recent behavior.

A recent social media post from Spears has sparked fresh discussion about her future after the singer revealed she would like to have another child.

The 44-year-old revealed her intentions on an Instagram post shared on Father’s Day, accompanying a video of herself dancing.

According to Star Magazine, sources revealed that Spears is “deadly serious” about the idea and is exploring different possibilities for expanding her family.

The singer reportedly “believes she can still get pregnant naturally, but if that doesn’t happen quickly, she’s willing to go down the surrogate or adoption route.”

Spears is already the mother of two sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James, both of whom she shares with ex-husband Kevin Federline. Reports further allege that she has been discussing what she would want in a future partner should she decide to pursue parenthood again.

The Singer’s Loved Ones Fear She’s ‘Still Deeply Troubled’ And Shouldn’t Be Thinking Of Having A Baby

The possibility of another child has reportedly sparked concern among some of Spears’ family members and friends, who believe she should prioritize her personal well-being before taking on additional responsibilities.

According to the publication, those close to the singer worry that to “add a baby into the mix when she’s clearly still deeply troubled is absolute madness.”

Concerns among those close to Spears intensified following a series of personal and legal challenges earlier this year.

The singer was arrested in California on suspicion of driving under the influence before later entering a rehabilitation program, where she remained for several weeks.

She subsequently resolved the legal matter by pleading guilty to a lesser charge and accepting probation along with an alcohol education program as part of the agreement.

Sources Say Britney Spears’ Inner Circle Is Determined To Block Baby Plans Even Through ‘Legal Route’

Sources claim that Spears’ recent legal troubles and public behavior have reinforced the concerns of some people in her inner circle.

Some of her family members and friends are now reportedly “determined to put a stop to her baby plans, even if that means going down the legal route again.”

At the same time, there have been signs of progress in Spears’ personal life. While her sons prepare for appearances at Paris Fashion Week, the singer has been keeping a relatively low profile in Los Angeles.

Recent reports have described her as “doing really well” following her rehabilitation stay, with continued counseling and a renewed focus on her future.

Britney Spears’ Sons Reportedly Played Key Role In Her Recovery Journey

Insiders have also credited Sean and Jayden with encouraging their mother to seek help when she needed it most.

According to reports, the brothers staged a heartfelt intervention, making it clear how important it was for her to address her struggles while reaffirming their love and support.

“It was like, ‘Mom, you have to go if you want us coming around,’” the insider said.

Sources say the conversation had a significant impact on Spears, who reportedly recognized that maintaining a strong relationship with her sons was a powerful motivation for making changes.

Those close to the family claim the experience ultimately strengthened their bond and left her feeling more optimistic about the future.

The source continued, “She wants a relationship with them, which would have been jeopardized if she didn’t go. So she made the right move, and they say she seems happy about it.”

Britney Spears’ Team Slams’ Erratic’ Dinner Claims As ‘Completely Blown Out Of Proportion’

Meanwhile, Spears’ representatives have recently pushed back against separate reports that portrayed her as behaving erratically during a dinner outing in Los Angeles.

The claims, which circulated after an incident at Blue Dog Tavern in Sherman Oaks, alleged that the singer was acting strangely and was seen carrying a knife.

Her representative dismissed the reports as “completely blown out of proportion,” stating that Spears was simply having dinner with her assistant and bodyguard and was never a danger to anyone.

According to the statement, “at no point did she put anyone in danger with a knife. She was cutting her hamburger in half. This constant attack on everything that she does, and this is exactly what happened 20 years ago when the media tried to depict Britney as a bad person. This is ridiculous, and it needs to stop now.”

Proud Democrat Bill Maher is revealing the reason he’d cross the political divide and vote for a Republican for president.

“If this is where the Democratic party is going… this obsession with Israel, with the Jew-hating, with they don’t believe in capitalism, no prisons, if this is where they’re going, my vote is in play,” Maher, 70, told Vice President JD Vance on the Friday, June 26, episode of his HBO Max show Real Time with Bill Maher.

“It’s either going to be you or Rubio,” the comedian continued, referring to former senator Marco Rubio, who memorably — and somewhat viciously — ran against President Trump in the run-up to the 2016 presidential election but who now serves as secretary of state under Trump’s second administration.

Maher’s claims about the so-called direction of the Democratic party come after a slew of wins for politicians running as Democratic Socialists, including New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and newly-elected members of Congress Claire Valdez, Darializa Avila Chevalier, Aber Kawas and Brad Lander.

Jimmy Kimmel and Bill Maher have not been seeing eye-to-eye lately. During the Monday, February 9, episode of Maher’s “Club Random” podcast, the talk show host sat down with Kimmel’s longtime friend Adam Carolla. At one point during their conversation, Maher, 70, opened up about the ongoing tension between him and Kimmel. “Jimmy Kimmel, he’s […]

“Here’s my dealbreaker for your side,” Mayer continued to Vance, 41, before describing the reason why a Republican candidate would not — could not — secure his vote. “Under Trump, you guys have two outcomes that an election can be, either we win or they cheated. That s*** has to stop. And that means the person who has to stop it will be you, or Marco. Can you tell me you will do that?”

Trump has repeatedly claimed that he won the 2020 presidential election against former President Joe Biden despite losing the popular and electoral votes. The president and other high-level administration officials have claimed the election was “rigged” despite failing to provide a shred of evidence proving election fraud.

Instead of promising to stop lying about potential election outcomes, Vance doubled down on election fraud conspiracy theories, which have become popular among MAGA Republicans and conservatives. (According to one CNN poll, nearly 70 percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning voters believe the 2020 presidential election was “rigged” and Biden’s win was not legitimate.)

Vice President JD Vance is attempting to assure a consistently suspicious American public that President Donald Trump is not hiding anything when it comes to the highly-publicized Jeffrey Epstein files. “What I disagree with is the idea that the White House wasn’t committed to full transparency. We have to remember I was inside of the […]

“OK, Bill, so this is where I’m probably going to lose ya there,” Vance responded. “I don’t think we should not concede elections, but I don’t think that’s what’s going on … The biggest criticism I had of the 2020 election is that you had technology companies that were quite literally censoring negative information about the left and promoting negative information about the right.” (According to Media Matters, a progressive research center that monitors right-wing online content, engagement data from that time period shows that Facebook and other social media platforms promoted right-leaning content more than left-leaning content.)

“Well, you’re going to get a big pat on the back when you go back to the White House,” Maher retorted.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is facing the pervasive rumor that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are getting married at the iconic Madison Square Garden head on — well, sorta.

“You know, what I am here to say is that whoever is getting married in New York City, I think it’s hard to beat the City Clerk’s Office but many will try and soon there will be more news,” Mamdani, 34, told ABC News Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl in a preview clip of an upcoming interview for ABC’s This Week shared on Saturday, June 27.

“Is somebody getting married at Madison Square Garden on July 3rd?” Karl persisted. “Somebody famous?”

After Swift, 36, and Kelce, also 36, got engaged in August 2025, rumors have swirled regarding their impending nuptials — everything from who has received an invite to the wedding venue to the date and time.

Recently, new clues have emerged to support the claim that the pair plan to say “I do” at Madison Square Garden. The New York Times reported on Wednesday, June 24, that a permit was filed with New York City to close the streets around the venue from July 2 to midday July 4 for an event on July 3, according to three people who have knowledge of the matter.

“Are you hearing that?” Mamdani replied to Karl, refusing to answer the question at all. “I think they’re calling me now.”

A source exclusively told Us Weekly on Saturday that not even the wedding guests know exactly where the pair’s star-studded nuptials will take place.

“Taylor and Travis told guests to be in NYC,” the insider explained. “No other location was provided.” All the guests know, according to the source, is that invitees need to be in New York City on Thursday, July 2, and Friday, July 3.

“They’re putting their guests on hold for a couple days,” the source added. “They are spending a lot of money — in the millions.”

Another source has confirmed to Us that the pair’s nuptials will, in fact, take place inside Madison Square Garden.

Other insiders have shared exclusive details regarding the pair’s wedding planning, noting that they initially wanted to say “I do” in Rhode Island but had to pivot due to safety concerns.

“Taylor and Travis really wanted their wedding in Rhode Island, and June 13 was the date, but security wouldn’t have worked because it could get out of hand with that kind of scale of an event,” an insider revealed on Saturday. “Ocean House [in Westerly] was planned at one point, and then plans changed to New York.”

The source added, “Rhode Island wasn’t great because the nature of the access and the perimeters were too difficult to secure. So the main issue with Rhode Island ended up being security.”

Harry Styles fans were concerned for the singer’s health after viral video footage appeared to show him choking on water and collapsing onstage in London.

The “Aperture” singer, 32, performed at Wembley Stadium in London on Friday, June 26, as part of his Together, Together Tour, but appeared to struggle towards the end of the set as he delighted fans with his signature water-spouting routine.

Viral footage captured a moment where Styles seemingly choked on some water while wrapping up show-closer “As It Was.” The former One Direction band member then fell to the ground and heaved multiple times while appearing to try to catch his breath.

Styles was on the ground for nearly 20 seconds — during which time he loosened his tie and patted his chest — before he pulled himself back up and ran around the stage to finish the performance. The TikTok footage showed the back of Styles’ blue shirt drenched with sweat as he finished the concert.

Us Weekly has reached out to Styles’ representative for comment on the incident.

Fans showed concern as the video quickly went viral, with many sending well-wishes for Styles in comments on the viral video.

“How come no one came and checked on him???” one viewer asked, while another pointed out, “Water went down the wrong pipe. He’s a performer and knew to lie down and cough for theatrics instead of awkwardly standing and coughing. He’s a pro. Love him. Glad he’s ok.”

“Oh that man was DYING in the heat,” a third theorized.

Despite the incident on Friday, Styles was scheduled to perform at Wembley Stadium once again on Saturday, June 27.

The outdoor show at Wembley Stadium came in the middle of a week where the ​Met Office, Britain’s national meteorological service, offered repeated extreme heat warnings. On Thursday, June 26, Met Office Chief Meteorologist Andy Page issued a “Red Warning” for London and much of the southeastern U.K., among other areas.

“This exceptional spell of hot and humid weather will maintain its grip on the UK for a little longer,” Page warned on Thursday. “Although the current red warning for areas in more central and western parts of England and Wales will expire later today, the heatwave will still be bringing high temperatures to these areas, albeit moving away from the peak heat of Wednesday and Thursday.”

Page went on, “We are expecting that some daytime maximum temperatures could exceed 36°C (96.8°F), perhaps rising to 37°C (98.6°F) in some locations.”

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce initially had their sights set on a marvelous coastal wedding, multiple sources exclusively tell Us Weekly.

“Taylor and Travis really wanted their wedding in Rhode Island, and June 13 was the date, but security wouldn’t have worked because it could get out of hand with that kind of scale of an event,” an insider says.

Though everything was initially being planned in Rhode Island — where Swift, 36, has a mansion in the lavish Watch Hill neighborhood of Westerly — the insider notes the pop star had booked multiple venues from coast to coast on different dates.

According to the source, “Ocean House [in Westerly] was planned at one point, and then plans changed to New York.”

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are keeping wedding day details under wraps  — even from their invited guests. “Taylor and Travis told guests to be in NYC. No other location was provided,” a source exclusively tells Us Weekly, noting that invitees only know to be in the Big Apple on Thursday, July 2 and Friday, […]

The insider tells Us that Swift’s security “had to assess all the venues to see what made sense.”

“Rhode Island wasn’t great because the nature of the access and the perimeters were too difficult to secure,” the source explains. “So the main issue with Rhode Island ended up being security.”

“Everything was being planned in Rhode Island,” added a source. “And so many people wanted to come that plans had to change because it became bigger.”

Swift and Kelce, 36, are now rumored to be tying the knot at Madison Square Garden in New York City over the July 4 holiday weekend. While the exact location and date of the nuptials have not yet been confirmed, NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani appeared to hint at the wedding taking place in the city during a June 15 press conference earlier this month.

“I am fully confident in the work of the NYPD, as well as our state partners, in delivering that safe experience,” he told reporters. “We are the biggest city in the country. We are used to big events, and we are incredibly excited for the [World Cup]. We know it coincides with the Knicks’ [NBA] Finals run. We know it coincides with July 4, America 250, Taylor Swift’s wedding — all happening at the same time — and we are so excited to welcome the world here.”

Additionally, a permit was filed with NYC in June, the mayor’s spokesperson Dora Pekec confirmed to Us after The New York Times reported on a permit to close the streets surrounding MSG from July 2 to midday July 4 for an event on July 3.

City sources also confirmed to Us that the Street Activity Permit Office (SAPO), which issues the permits, is in touch with the NYPD regarding a possible influx of street and pedestrian traffic.

Though Swift and Kelce’s Rhode Island wedding plans fell through, the “I Knew It, I Knew You” singer’s Watch Hill mansion had an uptick in action last week when security was spotted swarming the area. A group of unidentified women were reportedly seen on the balcony wearing matching robes — three in black and one in white — sparking speculation about a bachelorette party.

A woman who appeared to be Swift’s childhood friend Abigail Anderson Berard was also seen on the property with her 2-year-old son.

Meanwhile, Travis celebrated what was perceived as his bachelor party in Los Angeles and San Diego. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end and his brother, Jason Kelce, as well as Travis’ teammate Patrick Mahomes and others, were spotted at a Chris Lake concert, a Dave Chappelle comedy show, a night out at the members-only Bird Street Club and more.

Swift and Kelce began dating in the summer of 2023 and got engaged in August 2025.

Katy Perry has announced that her set at the Werchter Boutique festival in Belgium has been cancelled — and she wasn’t the one to make the difficult decision.

“Sadly my set @WerchterBoutique tonight can’t happen due to a government mandated cancellation because of the incoming inclement weather and crowd safety concerns,” the singer, 41, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, June 27, announcing that the show, unfortunately, would not go on.

“I was backstage at the show in the middle of hair and makeup when this news was delivered, and they gave me no choice. I am just as unhappy as you are,” she continued. “Unfortunately this is beyond my control. But the safety of all 55,000 of you always comes first and foremost.”

Perry was set to perform in Werchter, Belgium, just hours before the show was cancelled. Other artists featured on the festival’s lineup include Pitbull, Mika, Pommelien Thijs, James Arthur, Roxy Dekker and Emmy d’Arc.

“I am sorry I can’t change the weather, and even sorrier that all of us can’t be together tonight,” Perry concluded on Saturday, alongside a photo of the singer smoking outside wearing a robe, headphones, comfy pajama pants and flip flops. “I was looking forward to benign back after 17 years, I was even gonna wear the same outfit from that 2009 show again. I love you all, and please get home safe.”

Perry also shared a statement from the festival itself, announcing that her set was cancelled and the festivities would end after Pitbull’s performance.

“Following consultation with the Rock Werchter Safety Committee, in which all authorities and the organization are represented, it has been decided that the Werchter Boutique will end at 9pm this evening,” the statement read in part. “This decision was taken in response to the weather forecast, which predicts severe thunderstorms from midnight onwards at the earliest. The governor of Flemish Brabant has also issued a be-alert in this regard.”

The statement continued, “The festival will end after Pitbull’s performance. Katy Perry’s concert will not go ahead. By bringing the festival to a close early, we can ensure that the exit of visitors will proceed in a safe and orderly manner, allowing everyone to return home calmly. The safety and health of everyone present is always our top priority.”

The cancellation comes days after Perry released her latest single “Watch It Burn” on Thursday, June 25, which serves as the sister song to her November 2025 track “Bandaids.”

The song explores the replacement of years of restraint, people-pleasing and silence with the truth, using anger as a vehicle for honesty.

“Said I was too hard to love … For years/ I tried to rise above/ Was only light and love/ But now I’m shut the f*** up,” Perry sings, later adding, “Don’t wanna cause a scene/ But give me the gasoline/ Tonight’s the night/ I light a match/ Throw it hard behind my back/ Gonna try to forgive and forget/ Light a cigarette/ And watch it burn.”

Chloe Bailey has revealed how she felt when her sister, Halle Bailey, received intense criticism over her role in the live-action adaptation of “The Little Mermaid.”

Halle starred as Ariel, but when the film was released, many people were divided over her casting. Much of the criticism came in the form of racist comments, as some objected to the character being portrayed by a Black actress.

The live-action adaptation of “The Little Mermaid” was one of the most anticipated films of 2023. However, its release was overshadowed by intense criticism from some viewers over Halle Bailey’s casting as Ariel.

For Chloe, the other half of the musical duo Chloe x Halle, watching the controversy play out was emotionally difficult.

“It broke my heart,” the singer said in a sit-down with Variety.

She added, “Seeing her put so much hard work and time into an iconic role, I just wanted people to see how incredible she was in it, because this was all happening before the movie even came out. But my sister is resilient, and I’m happy she proved all the naysayers wrong.”

Chloe Says Beyoncé Shaped Her From Childhood

Chloe and Halle first gained major attention in the entertainment industry after posting a cover of Beyoncé’s “Pretty Hurts” in 2013, which caught the superstar’s attention. Beyoncé later signed the sisters to her company, Parkwood Entertainment.

However, Chloe’s connection with the iconic singer began years earlier, when she met her on the set of “The Fighting Temptations,” an encounter that left a lasting impression.

“I have always been the biggest Beyoncé fan since I was a little girl. Meeting her when I was four, and how kind she was to me on the set, only sparked a greater love for her. She had such a pure spirit that my four-year-old self clung to,” she revealed.

More than a decade after being signed by Beyoncé, Chloe remains grateful for the singer’s mentorship.

Looking back over the years, she said she appreciates how much the music icon’s presence has shaped and impacted her life and career.

“Being able to study her performances and being a true BeyHive fan and then being able to be signed to her and actually have intellectual conversations with her about life, the industry, and music is something I’ve never taken for granted. I really appreciate her ear,” Chloe noted.

To this day, she still holds onto advice she received from Beyoncé, which focused on handling the noise of the internet.

“One of the first pieces of advice she gave us was the ’no scroll’ rule: don’t read the comments, don’t read what people are saying, and don’t even let it fill your head up,” the “Have Mercy” singer said.

Chloe Credits Bond With Halle For Industry Success

As for her and her sister’s success in the entertainment industry, Chloe believes their close bond played a major role.

“We had each other. We were never going through anything alone. We would act together, sing together, and were each other’s best friends,” she said.

According to the singer, having someone to lean on who fully understood what she was going through was a “saving grace,” one she remains grateful for, even as they now appear to be pursuing solo career paths.

“I’m grateful that we had each other growing up in this industry. You know how they say to never walk down the street by yourself and always have a friend with you? It was almost like that,” Chloe also noted.

Chloe Bailey Teases Future Music With Halle

Before that, their last joint project was in June 2020 on their sophomore studio album, “Ungodly Hour,” after which they took a hiatus from performing as a duo.

Speaking about the group, Chloe clarified that they have not split and still plan to release music together.

“The band never broke up! We just had different endeavors happening at different times,” Chloe said.

“We’ve both been strengthening who we are as individuals, so when the music comes back as a duo it’ll be even better. We’ve strengthened the two halves of the heart,” she added.

It’s common knowledge that Netflix will pull the plug on shows the moment the almighty algorithm says they’ll make more money by cutting ties now. The most recent victim of this sudden cancellation habit was The Boroughs, a sci-fi mystery series about residents of a retirement community. 10 years ago, Netflix cancelled Between, another sci-fi mystery series about the residents of Pretty Lake after everyone over the age of 22 was killed by a virus. I never knew Between existed until my mother was talking about it, looked up if Netflix canceled it early, found out it ends on a cliffhanger, and immediately became annoyed with the world’s largest streaming service. 

Between Was Cut Short By Netflix

My mom thinks when Netflix cancels a show, whether it’s The Boroughs, Between, 1899, Santa Clarita Diet, or even Mindhunter, the streamer should have a notice on the show’s landing page that it’s incomplete. Let the audience know that the show ends on a cliffhanger and never gets to the proverbial fireworks factory. It should be a scarlet letter of shame for the streamer when they pull the plug before a show finds an audience. 

That said, Between was never going to be a hit on the level of Stranger Things or You, two shows that the streamer allowed to reach an ending. Between follows the kids of Pretty Lake after a virus kills everyone over 22 and they are trapped in a quarantine zone. It’s Under the Dome if it was a Canadian CW show, and the only highlight is Jeanette McCurdy as pregnant teen Wiley. It’s not a great show, but there’s also been a lot worse in the ensuing decade, and I can’t help but think it was a few years too early. 

Between was able to air two seasons of six episodes each, and while it technically was never canceled, it was dropped after the Season 2 finale in 2016 without anything as simple as a press release. If nothing else, it was a small hit in Canada, pulling in over 3 million viewers on average during its run on Canadian TV. There’s shows airing now on broadcast television that would kill to reach 3 million viewers, heck, that’s more than the average CW show pulled in and those aired forever. 

Netflix Saves Some And Cancels Others

Ironically, Netflix found a gold mine when it saved shows from the networks instead of cancelling them. Another sci-fi mystery series, Manifest, was saved from NBC after it topped the Netflix streaming charts. Deservedly so, as the show about a plane that vanishes for five and a half years, but no one on flight noticed the team pass, is one of the best sci-fi shows of the decade. Lucifer was canceled by Fox after three seasons, until Netflix saved it and let it run for three more. 

Some shows take awhile to find an audience. The Office, Parks and Recreation, Breaking Bad, Manifest, all of them stumbled when they first aired before either ironing out the kinks for the two former, and hitting streaming for the two latter. Between may have never been a huge hit, but in the age of TikTok, a teen-focused sci-fi survival series has the potential to catch on. Netflix’s lack of patience means we’ll never know, and let’s be honest, we’d all love to know before starting a series if it has a proper ending or not. Netflix, my mom is right, get on that. 

If thinning hair has you relying on strategic parting, volumizing sprays and a little wishful thinking, there’s a quick fix beauty shoppers have been swearing by for years. The cult-favorite Toppik Hair Building Fibers instantly create the appearance of fuller, thicker hair by concealing sparse areas and bald patches in seconds.

Made from natural keratin protein, the same protein found in your hair, Toppik Hair Building Fibers are designed to blend seamlessly with existing strands for natural-looking coverage. Here’s how it works: the tiny fibers carry a static charge that helps them cling to individual hairs, creating the illusion of density and volume wherever hair appears thin. Unlike powders or root touch-up sprays that can sometimes look flat or obvious, these fibers mimic the look of real hair, making them a favorite among those dealing with thinning at the crown, temples, hairline or part.

Get the Toppik Hair Building Fibers for $25 at Amazon! Please note, prices are accurate as of the publishing date but are subject to change.

To use, start with clean, dry, styled hair, then gently shake the fibers over any areas where the scalp is visible. As the fibers attach to your strands, you’ll notice sparse spots begin to look fuller almost instantly.
