Steve Harvey Roasted For ‘Simp Garbage’ Marriage Advice
Steve Harvey has found himself at the center of an online firestorm over his take on keeping a marriage happy. On social media, critics have wasted little time, questioning both his message and his credentials to deliver it in the first place.
Much of the pushback has centered on Harvey’s own relationship history, with some questioning why a man who has been divorced twice should be dishing out marital wisdom.
Steve Harvey’s latest marriage advice isn’t landing well with social media users. The “Family Feud” host sparked a heated debate on X after offering men one simple rule for married life.
“My only marriage advice for guys: you can be happy, or you can be right. You decide,” Harvey wrote.
Plenty of users rejected that philosophy outright. One critic told Harvey to “shut up with that simp garbage,” arguing that men could be both right and happy.
Another suggested the advice essentially amounted to keeping quiet for the sake of peace, while a female commenter called it “horrible advice.” She argued that spouses should be able to push back and have difficult conversations as equals.
Harvey Has Been Married To Marjorie For Nearly 20 Years
Harvey’s own marital history also became ammunition for his critics. “Not taking advice from a nigga that has been married 3x,” one fan pushed back on X.
The TV personality’s journey to lasting love had its share of setbacks before he settled down with his current wife, Marjorie.
Harvey first wed Marcia Harvey in 1981, years before becoming a household name. At the time, he was working as an insurance salesman while pursuing a career in comedy. His lengthy stretches on the road reportedly contributed to their eventual split in 1994.
Two years later, the comedian married Mary Shackelford. That relationship ended in 2005, and the fallout remained contentious for years afterward. His love life took a different turn with Marjorie, whom he had originally met at one of his comedy shows in Memphis. The pair eventually reconnected and married in 2007.
Not Everyone Is Against Steve Harvey’s Advice
Harvey wasn’t completely left out to dry, though, as some social media users saw wisdom in his point. One commenter argued that “being right is cheap,” suggesting a strong marriage depends more on protecting the relationship than winning an argument.
Another offered a more measured interpretation of Harvey’s advice, saying couples simply have to “pick your battles.” The user noted that sometimes standing firm is necessary, especially when the issue at hand is important.
Still, that support came with a caveat. The commenter argued that a partner who consistently chooses their own version of events over the truth may simply be the wrong person to build a life with.
Harvey Says Loyalty To ABC Sparked NBC Feud
Harvey has also been making headlines lately for more than just his relationship advice. The 69-year-old recently claimed that a dispute with a former NBC executive once cost him two television gigs within days of each other.
During an appearance on “Vault Empowers,” Harvey said the trouble began after NBC passed on “Celebrity Family Feud.” ABC ultimately picked up the show, and Harvey remained loyal to the network when NBC later wanted the successful series for itself.
According to Harvey, then-NBC higher-up Paul Telegdy did not take his refusal well. The comedian alleged that the executive subsequently set out to derail his television career.
How Steve Harvey Lost Two Shows Within Days
In May 2019, Harvey’s daytime talk show ended after seven seasons. Around the same time, Melissa McCarthy replaced him as host of “Little Big Shots.”
Harvey said he refused to beg to keep the job, insisting that no executive was responsible for his career. He later landed “Judge Steve Harvey” at ABC and claimed the courtroom series earned him more than his two previous shows combined.
Looking back on the fallout, Harvey suggested things ultimately worked out in his favor, saying, “I recovered from that real nicely.”

Jenni “JWoww” Farley is shutting down speculation that weight loss medication caused her noticeably slimmer appearance. The “Jersey Shore” star explained that her weight loss was not intentional and resulted from serious health complications that recently landed her in the hospital. Farley said she was unable to eat for six days while doctors treated her for appendicitis, a kidney infection, and a kidney abscess she described as being the size of a golf ball.
The speculation began after footage showed Farley attending the Macy’s x Rookie Kids: Runway on Broadway event in New York City on Thursday. The 41-year-old reality star was there to support her children, Meilani and Greyson, as they walked in the fashion show.
Some social media users focused on Farley’s appearance and accused her of using Ozempic or another injectable medication to lose weight. “Lay off the Ozempic lady smh,” one commenter wrote.
Another expressed concern, writing, “Oh jenni. What happened. I love you, but this is too extreme.”
Farley responded directly and explained that her health problems had caused her weight to fall to a level she could not control. “Apologies to everyone offended by my weight,” she wrote. “I have never been this thin since middle school.”
She added, “Unfortunately, I was told I couldn’t eat for six days in the hospital as they debated taking out my appendix while I was also suffering from a kidney abscess the size of a golf ball… appendicitis, and a kidney infection sucks (and because I had this ongoing, I was losing weight over the summer).”
“But what sucks more is the fact that I can’t control how thin I am right now, and I did not do any ‘shots’ for this to happen, but I will ask when I gain all the [weight] back for you to then comment about how fat I got because women can’t win either way,” she added with a sarcastic note.
The Reality Star Had Been Feeling Unwell For Months
Farley previously detailed her hospitalization in an emotional Instagram update posted around her children’s first day of school. “Not the ‘first day of school’ picture I wanted to post… but then again, I guess we wouldn’t have one,” she wrote alongside a photograph taken from her hospital room.
The television personality shares Meilani and Greyson with her former husband, Roger Mathews. The former couple was married from 2015 until their divorce was finalized in 2019. “I’ve spent every day fighting to get healthy enough to get home to my family while dealing with a horrible kidney infection and appendicitis,” Farley continued.
Although the severity of her condition appeared to develop suddenly, Farley acknowledged that warning signs had been present for months. “I want to say it came out of nowhere, but the truth is, I haven’t felt like myself for months,” she admitted. “Weight loss, exhaustion, constantly feeling off… and then last Friday, my body finally said, ‘We aren’t making it like this anymore.’”
Appendicitis Can Require Urgent Hospital Treatment
Farley has not provided complete details about her treatment or disclosed whether doctors ultimately removed her appendix. However, appendicitis is an inflammation of the appendix that typically requires prompt medical attention. Treatment can include antibiotics and, in many cases, surgery to remove the appendix, according to the Mayo Clinic.
Earlier this year, she similarly pushed back after critics commented on her appearance in a swimsuit photograph and suggested that she looked ill. At the time, Farley explained that she had not been deliberately trying to lose weight and criticized the conflicting expectations placed on women’s bodies.
Jenni Farley Recently Married Zack Carpinello
Farley’s health ordeal came only months after she married Carpinello in a surprise ceremony on June 24. The couple invited approximately 50 guests to what appeared to be a screening for Farley’s movie “Nanny Cam.” Attendees later discovered that they were actually present for the couple’s “Beauty and the Beast”-inspired wedding. Farley and Carpinello held a second, intimate wedding celebration in Lake Como, Italy, in July.
Carpinello also supported Farley throughout her recent hospitalization, while her “Jersey Shore” castmates shared messages wishing her a speedy recovery.
Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi Recently Shared Her Own Health Update
Farley’s response comes shortly after her longtime friend and “Jersey Shore” co-star Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi announced that she currently has no evidence of cancer. Polizzi was diagnosed with stage 1 cervical cancer earlier this year and underwent a hysterectomy on July 31. “As of right now, I am cancer-free. They got everything out,” Polizzi told PEOPLE.
Polizzi described the experience as a lengthy and difficult journey that began after she stopped delaying her Pap smear. “I avoided getting my pap smear for a long time. And once I finally went to the doctors, I feel like it’s just been week after week of doing a procedure, then another procedure, and then a hysterectomy,” she said. “So it’s been a journey and a long road, but I’m happy that I’m on the other side of it and everything is going good.”
Both women are now recovering from significant health challenges while speaking publicly about the assumptions and scrutiny surrounding their bodies.
Howard Stern‘s expansion to HBO Max has gotten off to a rocky start, with viewers taking to social media to express their disappointment with the new version of his longtime radio show.
The streaming series reduces the shock jock’s weekly three-hour SiriusXM broadcast into a 90-minute television episode, but early reactions suggest the transition has not impressed everyone.
The criticism follows reports of behind-the-scenes difficulties as Howard Stern’s reduced team attempts to adapt the radio program for television.
Stern’s HBO Max series made its debut on September 17, giving viewers a condensed version of his SiriusXM program every Thursday.
Rather than producing completely separate material for television, the show takes footage from Stern’s Monday radio broadcast and reshapes it into a 90-minute episode.
However, some longtime viewers were unimpressed by what they saw. “It’s unwatchable!” a Reddit user wrote, according to Globe Magazine. Another questioned the choice of material for the premiere, writing, “And I can’t believe this is the show they kicked it off with.”
The negative reactions did not stop there. One commenter wondered, “HBO show-how long until they pull the plug?” as discussions about the quality of the new format continued online.
The reception is hardly the beginning Stern would have wanted for his latest venture. His HBO Max agreement was intended to introduce his SiriusXM work to a wider television audience, but its debut has instead brought a lot of questions and backlash about the quality of the show.
The criticism from viewers comes after reports that Stern’s remaining staff had already been struggling behind the scenes to prepare the program for HBO Max.
Sources described the situation surrounding production as “chaos” and a “total disaster.” Stern’s radio schedule has been reduced to one new live broadcast each Monday instead of two weekly shows.
That single program then provides the material that must be edited and repackaged for HBO Max several days later.
Making that transition has reportedly been difficult, especially after two rounds of layoffs which significantly reduced Stern’s team.
Howard Stern Brushed Off Concerns About His Show
Staff members who remained were immediately tasked with determining how to transform hours of SiriusXM material into a television-friendly episode.
Stern has acknowledged the negative coverage surrounding his show, although he did so sarcastically during the September 14 season premiere.
“I’ve never had a summer where I was treated so well in the press,” he joked, before adding, “I can’t tell you how many different people have called me a scumbag.”
However, he did not address the massive layoffs during that broadcast.
The Shock Jock’s HBO Max Flop Makes His ‘Don’t Screw Up’ Warning To Andy Cohen Ironic
The rocky reception to Stern’s HBO Max debut comes only weeks after he had some playful advice for Andy Cohen as he took control of Howard 101.
Cohen’s Radio moved to Stern’s longtime Channel 101 on SiriusXM at the beginning of September, while Stern retained Channel 100. During their announcement, Stern expressed confidence in Cohen’s ability to take over the channel.
“I feel Howard 101 is in very capable hands. Enjoy it, take good care of it,” Stern told Cohen, according to People Magazine. But he also jokingly warned him about what would happen if things went badly. “And if you blow it, I will be the first one to laugh at you. Don’t screw it up.”
The comment has taken on an ironic turn following the criticism surrounding Stern’s own new show. While he was teasing Cohen about potentially mishandling his former channel, Stern’s attempt to expand his show to HBO Max has now been regarded as a huge flop.
Howard Stern Won A Legal Battle Against His Former Employee
While Stern deals with criticism surrounding his revamped show, he has scored a victory in a separate legal dispute with his former executive assistant, Leslie Kuhn.
Kuhn sued Stern and his wife, Beth, in April, alleging that she experienced a hostile work environment while employed by Stern’s production company, One Twelve. She also challenged non-disclosure agreements from 2022 and 2025 and claimed the latter had been forged.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, a judge has now rejected the forgery allegation after evidence showed that an email from Kuhn’s account included the message, “Signed NDA attached,” along with her electronic signature. The judge described her forgery claim as “a bald assertion.”
The lawsuit stems from Kuhn’s employment, which began in 2022 before she eventually became Stern’s executive assistant. She was dismissed in February 2026 and later accused the Stern household of maintaining a hostile work environment.
Stern pushed back against the lawsuit, describing it in court filings as “a thinly veiled attempted shakedown.” The ruling gives him a legal win at a time when his professional changes are generating a very different kind of unwanted attention.

When the Emmys hit, it feels like all of the focus is on the hair, makeup and fashion choices. This year, Selena Gomez proved that it’s worth paying attention to nails, too. Her red carpet manicure was courtesy of the Essie Gel Couture Nail Polish in Frost Yourself, a $13 shade that gave her nails a dreamy, light-catching finish inspired by a sunset.
Celebrity manicurist Tom Bachik said that the shade was the perfect choice for Gomez’s metallic frost sunset manicure, which was inspired by her Louis Vuitton gown. “It was like frosted gold, so I wanted that same effect on the nail, a frosted metallic,” said Bachik. The shade may have gotten its moment on the red carpet à la Gomez, but it’s surprisingly wearable for everyday life. Frost Yourself has a luminous, multidimensional finish that catches the light without looking overly glittery, giving nails that glossy, dressed-up effect with minimal effort. Best part: it’ll work with just about anything in your closet.
Get the Essie Gel Couture Nail Polish for $13 at Amazon! Please note, prices are accurate as of the publishing date but are subject to change.
The polish is part of Essie’s Gel Couture line, which is designed to deliver the look and shine of a gel manicure at home without having to use a UV lamp (or spend a fortune at the salon). Application-wise, the curved brush helps coat the nail evenly, making it easier to get close to the cuticle without flooding it. Apply two coats of color, letting each layer dry in between, then make like Gomez and top it with the Essie Gel Couture Top Coat for extra shine and staying power.
It’s no surprise we were obsessed with every detail of Nicole Kidman’s glam Met Gala look, including her nails. Her soft, sophisticated manicure had beauty lovers zooming in for a closer look. Lucky for Us, the star’s manicurist revealed on Instagram that the secret behind that flawless red carpet mani was Dazzle Dry 4-Step Nail […]
Even if you’re not skilled at at-home manicures, this shade makes things easy. That’s thanks to the shimmery finish that’s more forgiving than an opaque cream shade since subtle imperfections are less noticeable. Wear it alone for a soft, glowy manicure or layer it over another shade when you want to give your existing polish a more luminous finish.
One Amazon shopper said this shade is their “go-to when I don’t have too much time for precision.” Another reviewer called it “long-wearing” and noted that the “drying time is phenomenal.”
If Gomez’s sunset-inspired manicure convinced you to switch up your next nail look, there’s no need to book a salon appointment. Grab the Essie Gel Couture Nail Polish in Frost Yourself on Amazon today!

Brad Pitt has reportedly been enjoying the occasional drink again after a seven-year abstinence from alcohol, but one source isn’t worried, claiming the actor had an “Angelina” problem, not a drinking problem.
Pitt, 62, has openly acknowledged that he struggled with alcohol abuse while also dealing with the estrangement from his six kids with Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie as part of the fallout from the divorce.
The former couple, whose marriage officially ended in 2024, have both tried moving on, with Brad Pitt embracing a quieter life with his girlfriend Ines de Ramon and Angelina Jolie publicly speaking about reclaiming her life.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, a source close to Pitt made a remark concerning the actor’s drinking after almost a decade since his marriage to Jolie collapsed following a private plane incident in 2016.
According to the source, “Pitt never had a drink problem; he had an Angelina problem.”
The insider claims that the actor’s real issue was never with drinking too much and added that he had “worked hard on himself” and was “finally, in a really good place.”
Another long-time associate similarly explained that the actor may have gone through a period where he excessively consumed alcohol, but he has since addressed the issue.
“Did Pitt go through a period where he drank too much? Yes,” the associate said, adding that “He had some issues with alcohol and he addressed them. He worked through them.”
Pitt and Jolie began dating in 2005 and got married in 2014. Jolie filed for divorce two years later and made allegations concerning the actor’s behavior during the plane incident, while Pitt denied the allegations.
As reported by People Magazine, the FBI investigated the incident but closed the case without bringing any charges. The L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services also ended its investigation without finding any evidence of abuse.
Their divorce was finalized in 2024, officially ending a marriage that, according to one source, was “happy for a while, but when things went bad, they went very, very bad.”
The Actor Has Admitted He’s Drinking Again
Pitt has openly acknowledged that he struggled with alcohol following the end of his marriage to the woman he once reportedly said he trusted with his life.
The Hollywood A-lister reportedly had to join Alcoholics Anonymous to deal with his alcohol addiction and was able to abstain from consuming any amount of alcohol for seven years.
In an August 2026 Esquire interview, Pitt revealed that he had begun drinking again after his seven years of sobriety. “I was sober for seven years. And then I got back off the wagon,” Pitt told the outlet.
After a little laugh, he immediately clarified his newfound approach to the substance, saying, “In a more restrained manner. I got overconfident a couple times, went, Yep, nope, not good for me. Not in large quantities.”
When asked if he could have a glass of wine, Pitt explained, “I can have a few. But I can’t have a lot. I have to be professional about it.”
Brad Pitt Got Candid About His Struggles After Dealing With ‘Family Stuff’
Discussing what he called “Family stuff,” he explained that he came to a point where he understood how someone could contemplate suicide as an option.
“I understand suicide,” he said, adding that he gets it “in the sense that it’s just relief. It’s just looking for relief from the pain.”
Pitt struggled a lot following the separation, but his greatest pain was perhaps the estrangement from his kids.
A source told the Daily Mail that for the actor, it is the “worst thing that ever happened to him.”
Brad Pitt Has A Strained Relationship With All His Children
Pitt and Jolie welcomed six children together, namely, Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Knox and Vivienne.
After the split, as they started to get old enough, several of the children have chosen to remove their father’s name from their surnames, keeping only Jolie’s.
Shiloh legally dropped “Pitt” from her surname in 2024 after turning 18, with Maddox following suit in 2026. Zahara and Vivienne, like their siblings, have both officially filed to drop the actor’s name too.
A source described the situation to People Magazine, calling it a “tragedy” and saying there is “very little communication” between the actor and his children.
A separate source close to Pitt said that the rift between the father and his children was the result of “a prolonged campaign of alienation of children against their parent” and claimed that one parent had weaponized the children against the other.
According to the Daily Mail source, “Brad has fought and fought for them,” and though Jolie has allegedly used his children against him, “his door will always be open to them.”
Brad Pitt And Angeline Jolie Are Moving Forward Post Divorce
Pitt has been linked to his current girlfriend since 2022, and she recently accompanied him to the premiere of his movie “Heart of the Beast” in Franklin, Tennessee.
As per the Daily Mail, the premiere itself was different from the traditional Hollywood red carpet fanfare, as Pitt chose the FirstBank Amphitheater, which one source says is in the “middle of nowhere.”
Jolie Meanwhile has also started a new chapter; speaking to Variety, she said, “I think my fighting spirit is finally back.”
She continued, “I got kind of taken down a little bit, and it’s coming back in large part thanks to my children, who are now older, and encouraging it.”
Heidi Klum has revealed two unsettling clues about her next Halloween costume, suggesting her 2026 transformation could be one of her bloodiest yet. The supermodel has not disclosed the character or concept behind the look. However, she confirmed that it will involve plenty of blood and pair surprisingly well with red wine. The hints come after Klum transformed herself into an elaborate version of Medusa for her annual New York City Halloween party last year.
Klum offered a cryptic preview of her costume during an interview with PEOPLE. “It goes very well with red wine,” the 53-year-old model said of the upcoming look. “It’s very, very bloody.”
Klum did not explain whether the blood will be connected to a recognizable character, a horror movie, or an original creation.
The red wine clue also arrived as part of Klum’s partnership with Apothic Wine, which is promoting limited-edition Type “A” Blood Bags ahead of Halloween. That connection means the wine reference may be part of the campaign rather than a literal hint about the costume’s identity.
Still, the promise of a bloody transformation indicates that Klum is once again moving toward a dramatic full-body look instead of a traditional celebrity costume.
The Model Became Medusa For Halloween 2025
Klum transformed into Medusa for her 24th annual Halloween party in New York City in 2025. Her husband, Tom Kaulitz, joined the concept by appearing as a man who had been turned to stone by Medusa’s stare. Klum wore green scales, prosthetic fangs, colored contact lenses, and a snake-covered headpiece. A long, curved tail followed behind her as she made her way down the carpet.
Vogue reported that the transformation took six months and a team of more than 15 people. Special effects artist Mike Marino helped bring the character to life with mechanical snakes and hand-painted details.
Klum documented part of the lengthy process on Instagram, giving fans a closer look at the makeup, prosthetics, and contact lenses that made her nearly unrecognizable.
Heidi Klum’s Giant Worm Became An Internet Sensation
Although Klum has delivered several memorable Halloween transformations, her 2022 worm remains one of her most recognizable. The model arrived inside an enormous, textured worm costume that concealed almost her entire body. She spent part of the evening wriggling on the floor because the design left her with extremely limited movement.
Klum again worked with Marino and his company, Prosthetic Renaissance, on the elaborate costume. The design immediately went viral and generated countless memes across social media.
The final result was memorable, but Klum later admitted that wearing it was physically challenging. “I was so claustrophobic in that costume,” Klum told The Hollywood Reporter. “But Halloween is not about comfort.”
The costume restricted her arms and legs, leaving her largely dependent on her team throughout the evening.
The Supermodel Had To Stop Drinking Hours Before The Party
The worm costume also created a practical problem because Klum could not easily remove it once the transformation was complete. “I made sure not to drink anything hours before getting into costume as I knew that there was no way to get in and out of it,” she said at the time.
Despite the discomfort, Klum considered the reaction to the costume worth the effort. “For me, Halloween is all about transforming and being creative,” she said. “I am happy that people are appreciating the creativity and effort to create this as well as all the other costumes I did in the past. I couldn’t have done it without my team.”
Klum has since continued working with makeup artists, designers, and special effects professionals to make each year’s concept more technically ambitious.
Heidi Klum Has Built A History Of Elaborate Transformations
Klum’s Halloween archive includes transformations into E.T., a peacock, an alien, and Princess Fiona from “Shrek.”
Her 2023 peacock costume relied on a group of Cirque du Soleil performers to create the bird’s enormous feathers, turning the look into a coordinated performance rather than a traditional outfit.
In 2024, Klum and Kaulitz appeared as different versions of E.T. Their costumes featured oversized heads, glowing features, and motorized elements inspired by Steven Spielberg’s 1982 movie.
Her 2026 Costume Remains A Mystery
Klum has not yet confirmed whether Marino or her previous special effects team will help create her 2026 look. She also has not revealed how long the costume has been in development or whether Kaulitz will participate in a matching concept.
However, history suggests the transformation will require far more than fake blood and makeup. Klum has repeatedly used prosthetics, mechanical features, and full-body disguises to prevent fans from recognizing her until the reveal.
Nicki Minaj is addressing criticism the rapper has received over her steadfast support of President Donald Trump and his administration.
“I am honored to be able to have an opportunity to work with this administration and to work with President Trump. He has inspired many people, not just me. And he’s — he’s fun,” Minaj, real name Onika Tanya Maraj-Petty, said on Friday, September 18, while appearing on FOX News Channel’s The Ingraham Angle, hosted by Laura Ingraham.
“He’s not just smart, and, you know, he’s not just the president,” the rapper continued. “But he’s also someone that I can relate to, someone that, you know, every time I see him, or every time I see him speaking to other people, he’s just himself. He’s very — he’s very grounded. It’s easy to connect with him. It’s easy to feel like he heard you, he understands you. And I just — I just love him. And I’m not going to ever make excuses for that.”
When asked if she had anything to “say to the critics of you for working with the sitting U.S. President,” Minaj, 43, quickly responded, “Absolutely nothing.”
Vice President JD Vance is singing his praises for Nicki Minaj after her appearance at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest. “Nicki Minaj said something at Amfest that was really profound,” Vance, 41, wrote via X on Monday, December 22. “I’m paraphrasing, but she said, ‘Just because I want little Black girls to think they’re beautiful doesn’t […]
“I don’t know why I should,” she added.
Minaj has been a fierce advocate of Trump, 80, since he took office for a nonconsecutive second term 2024, telling TIME in a May 13 profile that she was disappointed by former president Barack Obama’s two-term presidency and had been frustrated that Black performers were often expected to vote for democratic candidates.
Nicki Minaj joins U.S. President Donald Trump Getty Images
“Many celebrities feel the way I do, but they don’t say it,” Minaj told the outlet at the time. “Sometimes you just need one brave person to get the brunt of the impact. I think I am the catalyst for that change.”
Thanks to her close personal relationship and friendship with the president — Minaj told TIME she is the president’s “No 1. fan” — Minaj is set to return to the world of reality TV as a judge for the president’s latest project, The Million Dollar Pitch Competition.
“This is a major, MAJOR KEY,” Minaj wrote via X on August 31, confirming her involvement in the reality series competition. “Sooooooooooo looking forward to this!!! Imagine being a part of the Trump Administration’s initiative to support small businesses. Let’s GO!!!!!!!!!!”
According to the United States Small Business Administration, The Million Dollar Pitch Competition will give away prizes from a $1 million cash pool to five entrepreneurs pitching their small business models to possible investors.
The five finalists “represent the best of American ingenuity, know-how and grit while representing the vital contributions of small businesses in local communities across America’s industrial base,” SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler said in a press release.
Us confirmed that Minaj will join entrepreneur Grant Cardone and U.S. Chief Design Officer Joe Gebbia to judge the final round of competition. Actor Dean Cain will also host the event, scheduled to take place on Friday, September 18, in Washington, D.C.
“And no, I will not be on stage lecturing anyone,” Minaj told Ingraham, 63, of how she plans to conduct herself when she finally goes back on tour — eventually. “I will be on stage trying to have fun and remind people how blessed we are to live in this country and to remind people how blessed we are to wake up healthy and — and in our right minds every day, and how much we take for granted.”
She continued, “I love performing because that’s like the only time when all of us are in this big place and we don’t have a care in the world, we’re making memories, and we’ll never forget those memories … And I don’t want any more questions about concerts. I’m in my businesswoman era.”
The chick-flick genre simply wouldn’t be what it is today without Clueless. The totally buggin’ comedy classic paved the way for the best of the teen genre in the 2000s, with films like Mean Girls owing their existence and popularity, in part, to Clueless. A loose retelling of Jane Austen‘s 1815 novel Emma, the story of fashionista Cher Horowitz (Alicia Silverstone) and her romantic journey into the arms of her ex-step-brother, Josh Lucas (Paul Rudd), is the stuff of cinematic legend and remains today one of the best-loved films of its kind.
Last year, the 30th anniversary of the film was celebrated by millions of fans across the world, with a 4K UHD steelbook release proving popular and a special theatrical re-release earning just shy of $100,000. Back in 1995, the film’s original release was much more successful, with a $13.7 million production budget turned into a global haul of $58 million. The film opened in second place in the domestic ranks, falling less than $2 million short of the box office chart-topper Apollo 13.
The film is a favorite of many, including some of Hollywood’s biggest names. The iconic Nicole Kidman herself even named Clueless as one of her four favorite movies when interviewed by Letterboxd, with the film joining The Piano Teacher, The Piano, and A Woman Under the Influence in her list. But if it is one of your favorites, then you’ll have to hurry for your next re-watch, as Clueless is officially leaving the Netflix catalog on October 1, 2026.
‘Clueless’ Is Coming Back
It’s been a roller coaster for Clueless fans in recent months. Set 30 years after the original 1995 film, a sequel series to the chick-flick classic was in the works at Peacock before it was revealed that the streamer had dropped the project. Thankfully, Paramount swooped in to save the day, with it now revealed that the sequel series is eyeing a Los Angeles production starting next year. Silverstone will reprise her role as Cher Horowitz in the miniseries, now the mother of her own teenager. The script will be penned by Josh Schwartz (The O.C.), Stephanie Savage (Gossip Girl), and Jordan Weiss (Dollface).
Clueless is officially leaving the Netflix catalog on October 1, 2026. Stay tuned to Collider for more streaming stories.

Last month, Daejon Love became an internet sensation after being arrested for defrauding at least 26 women out of about $1.3 million. Love pulled off the scam for several years with the alleged help of 18-year-old Taylor Chan. Recently, the FBI announced that the number of victims, as they predicted, might have grown by at least 35 more alleged victims.

New Update On Daejon Love Cites New Victims
FBI Initially Identified 26 Victims In Fraud Case
When the Daejon Love news first broke in late August, the FBI had identified at least 26 alleged victim investors. These woman had handed over a collective $1.3 million to the 35-year-old posing as an NFL player over a series of years. Resurfaced social media videos showed Love practicing fitness drills while wearing 49ers gear, including a branded headband and helmet.
Together, Daejon Love and Taylor Chan presented Love as an experienced and profitable investor to women who, in large majority, believed they were in a romantic relationship with him. They created fake bank and investment accounts and exchanged investment related communications. Daejon then passed on screenshots of the fake comms and accounts to encourage victims to trust him with their money. In some cases, Love encouraged the women to take out personal loans, promising quick returns. As victims became suspicious with questions or ran out of coins to invest, Daejon Love would allegedly block them while keeping their money.
Ultimately, he and Taylor Chan were arrested on August 24 at an Idaho airport after Chan flew their to meet Daejon in a ploy to defraud more victims. This came several days after the FBI issued warrants on August 17. The criminal complaint cited conspiracy to commit wire fraud and wire fraud allegations against the men. Between July 15 and the day of their arrest, the Love had traveled to at least six states, still running the scam.
Social Media Weighs In As Love’s Scam Resurfaces
With the new update on Daejon Love, there are fresh takes on what he’s accused of doing. While some are cracking jokes about the plot thickening, others are shaking their heads at how deep the fake pro-athlete-and-investor scheme ran. And a few stood on that “they got what they were looking for” hill about the alleged victims.

“I don’t feel bad for them at all bc you can easily look up a football roster😂,” @ihearttexoticc added.
“Him and Dr. Bryant has shown me that I’m not lying to my full potential in life 😂,” @chi3f90 said.
“The fact he got all these women is crazy….google is FREE,” @_shelovesflowers wrote.
“I don’t feel sorry for the “victims” because if a man is a NFL player why would he need your money?🫣 like let’s think logically here,” @theprincessru commented.
“I would NEVER come forward… 😂 I would just take the L and keep it moving….,” @sequoianeff wrote.
“Free him!!! Women be to “pick me”😅 cuz Not a single clip , pic or text Ive seen about this man would EVER convince me to send him my coins. 😂,”@flawednfabulous added.

What Do You Think Roomies?
Miley Cyrus is reflecting on the overwhelming combination of grief, fear, and post-pandemic pressure that led to an anxiety attack in front of a massive concert crowd. The Grammy winner said the frightening moment unfolded during a 2022 performance in Mexico after she lost her close friend Taylor Hawkins and survived a terrifying in-flight emergency. Looking back, Cyrus believes the experience was not caused by one incident. Instead, it followed a buildup of traumatic events that changed her relationship with performing.
Cyrus discussed the incident during an interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music ahead of the release of her album “Bass Persuades.” The “Flowers” singer recalled having an “actual anxiety attack on stage” while performing for a huge audience in Mexico.
Rather than attempting to conceal what she was experiencing, Cyrus told the crowd directly. “I was saying to the crowd, ‘I’m having an anxiety attack.’ And they were like, ‘Hell yeah, we’re having anxiety attacks.’”
Cyrus went from spending the COVID-19 pandemic with only a small number of people to standing in front of an audience reportedly numbering about 250,000. That contributed to the emotional and sensory overload she experienced during the performance.
The Singer Described A ‘Cocktail Of Chaos’
In hindsight, Cyrus does not believe the panic attack can be separated from everything she had endured in the months leading up to it. “I guess it wasn’t so much anxiety, as I realize now in hindsight; it was just a buildup of the cocktail of chaos, you could say. Living through a global pandemic like everyone else,” the star said.
The singer’s return to large-scale performances followed an extended period when concerts, tours, and other public events were disrupted by the pandemic. At the same time, she was processing the sudden death of Hawkins, the longtime Foo Fighters drummer who had become one of her close friends.
Cyrus explained that the fear and grief she experienced became connected to performing, making it more difficult for her to feel comfortable onstage.
Miley Cyrus And Taylor Hawkins Became Close During The Pandemic
Cyrus and Hawkins reportedly lived near one another during the pandemic and developed a friendship. Their bond grew stronger through similar musical instincts, with Cyrus telling Lowe they had been “in alignment” creatively.
Hawkins was scheduled to perform with the Foo Fighters at the Asunciónico music festival in Paraguay in March 2022. Cyrus was also part of the festival lineup. However, severe weather prevented Cyrus from arriving. Lightning struck her plane while it was traveling to Paraguay, forcing an emergency landing.
Cyrus later confirmed that her crew, band, friends, and family were safe. The storm and severe flooding ultimately disrupted the festival.
Taylor Hawkins Was The First Person She Called After Plane Emergency
Cyrus described the flight incident as “super terrifying” and said Hawkins was the first person she called afterward. The musician attempted to reassure her while discussing the show they expected to perform. “He’s like, ‘Man, I’m here. It’s raining, but like the show’s going to be sick.’ And the next day he was gone,” she said.
Hawkins died at age 50 on March 25, 2022, while the Foo Fighters were touring South America. He was found unresponsive in a hotel room in Bogotá, Colombia, shortly before the band was scheduled to perform at the Festival Estéreo Picnic.
Cyrus’ flight emergency meant she did not have the opportunity to reunite with Hawkins before his death, adding another painful dimension to her grief.
Taylor Hawkins’ Official Cause Of Death Was Not Disclosed
A preliminary toxicology report released by Colombian authorities found multiple substances in Hawkins’ system, including opioids, marijuana, tricyclic antidepressants, and benzodiazepines. However, an official cause of death was not publicly disclosed. Reports at the time stated that emergency services responded after Hawkins experienced chest pain, but he could not be revived.
The Foo Fighters announced his death in a statement and subsequently canceled their remaining tour dates. Cyrus was among the numerous musicians who honored Hawkins after his death. She later participated in the Los Angeles tribute concert organized by Foo Fighters in September 2022.
Miley Cyrus Is Reconsidering Her Relationship With Performing
Cyrus’ panic attack became part of a larger shift in how she approaches her career and live performances. The singer has spoken about prioritizing her physical and mental health instead of committing to the demands of a traditional world tour.
Cyrus is now returning to the stage on her own terms as she promotes “Bass Persuades,” which was released on September 18. She is also scheduled to perform two shows at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles in October.
