George Floyd’s Family Wants Answers About GoFundMe Millions

Three of Floyd’s family members — Zsazsa, LaTonya, and Rodney Floyd — are asking for an accounting of millions of dollars raised on the platform, according to a letter obtained by TMZ. The letter was reportedly dated Tuesday, August 11, and it notes that approximately $19 million was donated to the GoFundMe.

Rodney, Zsazsa, and LaTonya are asking their brother, Philonise Floyd, for an account of the donations.

“We want to see the records,” the letter states. “Understand how decisions were made, and make sure the family’s questions are answered. We’re speaking up because transparency matters.”

Siblings Claim They Haven’t Received Their Fair Share

The siblings claimed that they’ve repeatedly asked for the GoFundMe records. Not only that, but they also said they requested documentation about how the funds were distributed. They say they haven’t received their fair share of the millions.

Subsequently, Philonise has 20 days from the date of receipt of the letter to provide documentation. However, the family’s attorney said that she hoped the request could be handled amicably.

Ben Crump Also Contacted Over Funds

According to PEOPLE, the GoFundMe is run by Adner Marcelin of Ben Crump Law. The donations were reportedly the most funds ever raised on the platform.

The family reportedly told TMZ that, in addition to contacting their brother, they’ve also contacted Crump. However, they said they haven’t heard back yet. A separate GoFundMe for Floyd’s daughter Gianna raised more than $2 million.

The longer Coyote vs. Acme runs, the more it proves Warner Bros. should have had more faith in it instead of accepting the tax write-off. As the latest Looney Tunes feature has opened in more regions, its box office numbers have kept rising, reaching another milestone. Perhaps shelving this movie was a mistake on Warner Bros.’ end.

Coyote vs. Acme is the latest animated/live-action hybrid feature, in which Wile E. Coyote sues the Acme Corporation over every failed product this Looney Tunes character has used in his attempts to catch the Road Runner. Since its release, Coyote vs. Acme has earned over $80 million worldwide, with its current domestic earnings totaling over $55 million. But it wasn’t the tax write-off or its reported budget that Coyote vs. Acme surpassed.

ScreenRant reported that as of September 20, 2026, Coyote vs. Acme continued to prove Warner Bros. wrong by outgrossing five films the studio released domestically. Coyote vs. Acme has surpassed The End of Oak Street, Practical Magic 2, Evil Dead Burn, Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, and They Will Kill You, while Supergirl, Mortal Kombat II, and Wuthering Heights remain above it. Warner Bros. Entertainment didn’t distribute Coyote vs. Acme. Ketchup Entertainment bought the distribution rights from Warner Bros. for $50 million following the backlash.

What To Watch If You Like ‘Coyote Vs. Acme’

As of writing, Coyote vs. ACME has yet to announce a streaming release date. In the meantime, there are other films worth watching, especially if you saw this feature in theaters. The first that come to mind are the Space Jam films: Space Jam and Space Jam: A New Legacy. Both were live-action/animated hybrids in which the Looney Tunes played basketball alongside notable basketball players: Michael Jordan in the first movie and LeBron James in the sequel. Both Space Jam movies were praised by audiences, earning 63% and 79% audience scores, respectively.

Another movie worth watching if you enjoyed Coyote vs. ACME is Who Framed Roger Rabbit, released in 1988 and starring Bob Hoskins, Christopher Lloyd, Charles Fleischer, Stubby Kaye, and Joanna Cassidy. This feature takes place in 1947 Los Angeles, where famous cartoon star Roger Rabbit seeks help from private detective Eddie Valiant (Hoskins) after he is accused of murdering businessman Marvin Acme (Kaye) and sets out to find the real killer. Who Framed Roger Rabbit was highly acclaimed, winning numerous awards and being selected for preservation in the U.S. National Film Registry for its “cultural, historical, or aesthetic significance.”

Coyote vs. ACME is now showing in theaters. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.

Michelle Williams is pursuing a new personal milestone years after finding global fame with Destiny’s Child. The singer has enrolled at Regent University to study psychology and says she is committed to earning her degree.

Her first shot at higher education took a different path, as Williams left a criminal justice program after two years to pursue opportunities in music.

Michelle Williams Vows To ‘Finish Strong’ After Returning To School

3

Michelle Williams is hitting the books again after putting college aside decades ago to pursue her music career.

The Destiny’s Child alum revealed that she is now a sophomore at Regent University, where she is studying psychology. Williams announced the news on Instagram alongside a photo of herself wearing a shirt bearing the Virginia-based Christian university’s name.

“Chiiiiiiiiile, your girl is back in school!!” she wrote.

Williams admitted she initially hesitated to make her return to college public. The singer said she had not even told some family members and friends because she feared she might not complete her studies. However, the 47-year-old is determined to see this through. “I’m going to finish, and I’m going to finish strong,” Williams declared.

Williams Put Her First Degree On Hold For A Music Career

Williams also poked fun at her choice of major, joking that she is studying psychology “because y’all need help!” She praised her professors and advisers before asking fans to pray for her “endurance and focus.”

The singer’s latest academic pursuit comes nearly three decades after her first attempt at earning a degree.

She graduated from Rockford Auburn High School in Illinois in 1997 before enrolling at Illinois State University. At the time, she chose criminal justice as her major because she wasn’t sure singing could provide a viable career.

Williams ultimately spent two years at the university before music presented another path, as she left school and began working as a backing vocalist, including touring with R&B singer Monica.

Fans Applaud Michelle Williams’ Decision To Return To College

Williams’ announcement has drawn an outpouring of support, with many applauding her decision to pursue a degree despite already achieving fame and success. “It’s NEVER too Late,” one X user declared, while another wrote, “Wishing her nothing but success and longevity!!!!!”

Others were impressed that Williams wanted to continue her education at this stage of her career. “Impressive when you have fame & fortune and still choose to go to uni,” one person remarked.

Her psychology joke also proved popular. “We do need help, Michelle!!! Good for you and soon for us too,” a fan quipped, while another responded, “‘Y’all need help, she didn’t lie.”

“Omg imagine going to school, and Michelle Williams is in your class?!?” another user wrote, admitting they would probably end up singing the bridge of “Survivor” to her.

Williams Recently Performed ‘Say My Name’ And ‘Cater 2 U’ In The Bahamas

Williams has also been revisiting the music that helped make her famous during her own recent performances.

Earlier this month, the singer took over Jon Batiste’s Jazz Club at the Baha Mar resort in Nassau, Bahamas, for a two-night engagement dubbed “An Unforgettable Night with Michelle Williams.”

According to Complex, Williams performed on September 6 and 7, delivering a set spanning several chapters of her career. Destiny’s Child favorites “Cater 2 U” and “Say My Name” made the cut, alongside material from her solo catalog.

Michelle Williams Also Dipped Into Her Broadway And Gospel Catalog

Williams also tapped into her theater background with show tunes and brought gospel into the mix, including her track “Say Yes.”

The Broadway veteran had teased the limited run on Instagram before heading to the Bahamas, telling followers, “Bahamas, I’m coming your way. TWO NIGHTS ONLY.”

Police in Mississippi have arrested a second man in the death of a Black woman, Tasia Fortune, found hanging from a tree. They have also issued an arrest warrant for a third suspect.

Man Arrested In Connection To Tasia Fortune’s Death

Jackson police said late Tuesday (Sept. 22) that they arrested 25-year-old Earnest Lloyd Jr. in the death of 29-year-old Tasia Fortune. As said, her body was found hanging behind an abandoned home in the city on Aug. 3.

Like Fortune and the first man arrested, 51-year-old Jarques Ratliff, Lloyd is Black. Lloyd appeared at a brief hearing on Wednesday in Jackson, Mississippi. Meanwhile, Ratliff was arrested earlier this month on murder charges. He pleaded not guilty and remains jailed without bond.

Tasia’s Mom Reacts To Second Arrest In Daughter’s Passing

Fortune’s mother, Christy Spivey, who attended the recent hearing, said afterward that she was ecstatic to see arrests made in her daughter’s death. She said that neither she nor several of her daughter’s friends knew Lloyd. Additionally, she cautioned that everyone is innocent until proven guilty.

“My family is not the only family that this is affecting,” Christy Spivey said of the defendants’ families. “I feel for them as well. The only difference is that mine can never come back.” She added, “I’ll never truly have peace.”

A Kentucky native, Tasia Fortune had four children and had been living in Jackson for about a decade, relatives said. Spivey previously said her daughter struggled with homelessness in recent years, and that she wasn’t sure where her daughter was living at the time of her death. She said that before her death, her daughter had talked about starting a cleaning business and was trying to get her life in order.

Police Is Looking For A Third Suspect 

Mississippi police said in a statement that they issued an arrest warrant for a third suspect. However, they gave no details about that person’s identity or alleged link to Tasia Fortune’s death. They also said they expect to issue additional warrants.

After the arrest of Jarques Ratliff (the first suspect), Jackson’s police chief, RaShall Brackney, said Ratliff had an “association” with Fortune but didn’t elaborate.

Police haven’t suggested a possible motive for the killing or said whether they think race played a role. Still, the case has attracted widespread attention because the manner of death recalled lynchings in the Southern state.

A Detroit family expected to say a final goodbye to their loved one, Kimberly Kaye Moore, but a disturbing mix-up at a funeral home reportedly left them with more questions than answers. And now, Don Lemon is speaking out about the situation.

Family Says They Discovered A Devastating Mix-Up

According to the family, things took a heartbreaking turn when they arrived at the funeral home ahead of Moore’s scheduled viewing. Her daughter, Bianca Robinson, said she was preparing to add her mother’s nails and lashes when funeral home staff opened the body bag — only for her to realize the woman inside was not her mother.

Robinson recalled noticing that a distinguishing mark on the woman’s toe did not match her mother’s. She told local outlet WXYZ that when she questioned the staff, she was allegedly told Moore may have been cremated shortly after arriving at the funeral home because two women had arrived around the same time. The family says staff suggested an identification mix-up may have occurred after Moore’s toe tag allegedly became wet and fell off.

Family Says They Never Received Moore’s Remains

And that realization reportedly left the family facing a heartbreaking reality: the viewing and funeral they had planned could no longer happen as expected. The family said they intended to hold Moore’s viewing and funeral before cremating her, but after discovering the wrong body, they said they did not have Moore’s remains or ashes.

Don Lemon Speaks Out About Incident

In a video shared on social media, Don Lemon spoke out about the reported mix-up, expressing disbelief over how such a serious error could happen. “I mean, I’m sorry. How do you make a mistake like that? That’s just really unacceptable,” Lemon said, as he reacted to the family’s disturbing discovery.

Funeral Home Says It’s Heartbroken And Deeply Sorry”

The funeral home, identified as Hutchison Funeral Home, has since launched an internal review into the situation. Furthermore, Joseph Hutchison Jr., the funeral home’s vice president of operations, told WXYZ that the establishment was investigating the matter. And, in a statement shared to Click On Detroit, the establishment said it was “heartbroken and deeply sorry” for what Moore’s family experienced:

“We are aware of the family’s concerns and we will continue to communicate with them honestly and respectfully,” the statement from Hutchison Funeral Home revealed. “We have launched our own internal review to determine exactly what happened and we will deal with it accordingly. Out of respect for Ms. Moore and her family, we ask that their privacy be honored during this time. We will share more when we can.”

Ciara Miller is embracing every fiber of change on “DWTS.”

The television personality reflects on how rewarding her time on the dance show has been, and how it has also brought her face to face with a silent battle she has fought throughout her years on television.

Ciara Miller is dancing her way to victory so far on the latest season of “Dancing With The Stars” alongside her partner Brandon Armstrong, and they recently received an 18 out of 30 for their tango on the recent episode.

Reality TV Did Not Prepare Ciara Miller For The Different Feeling Of ‘DWTS’

The reality star explained that despite spending half a decade winning fans on “Summer House” and also landing a co-hosting role on “Aftersun,” dancing in front of an audience is a different ballgame. In her words:

“I underestimated the impact of everything. And stage fright is a real thing. Being anxious is a real thing.”

Miller then made another grand confession about a positive side of her that appeared in the competition. She explained that her experience on the show reinforced her confidence and helped her stay more focused on getting anything.

The 30-year-old continued that more than ever, she is relating to the concept of locking in and blocking out the noise if she wants to have a great time on that show.

Her dance partner, during their interview with US Magazine, emphasized that “DWTS” basically forces contestants to face their fears and address their limitations, for better or worse.

The Reality TV Star’s Soured Romantic Relationship Inspired Her Latest Ballroom Routine

Miller’s stage fright did not stop her from sending a loud, yet artistic shoutout to her ex-boyfriend West Wilson, who was in a controversial romantic situation with her former best friend, Amanda Batula.

On Tuesday, September 22, Miller and Armstrong chose to perform a Tango to “No Broke Boys” by Disco Lines & Tinashe. As Page Six noted, the duo chose the song to match the episode’s theme of dancing to songs that broke the internet.

The media personality told host Julianne Hough she chose the song because the title fit a time when a “broke boy” tried to ruin her life, but it didn’t work. The episode featuring Miller’s ex-boyfriend and ex-bestfriend eventually made the 10th season of “Summer House” a smash hit on television.

Batula and Wilson have since confirmed the secret relationship, saying it grew out of genuine friendship and that they had to be extra careful about how they addressed their connection.

Ciara Miller Reflected On An Emotional Breakthrough On ‘DWTS’ After Judge Carrie Ann Inaba’s Praise

The television personality and show judge Inaba shared a candid moment on television that left a lasting impression on her heart and forced her to embrace a bolder side of herself. In a pre-recorded message aired before the tango performance, Miller reflected on Inaba telling her she could recognize the pain she battled.

Miller found deep meaning in the acknowledgment, saying she finally felt seen after spending about seven years on television, with her personality often dismissed as too dramatic. She admitted that vulnerability isn’t a natural trait for her, making it even harder to come undone on “DWTS.”

Miller channeled her discovery into preparing to be braver for her new performance, and her work paid off as the audience blasted applause across the room at the end of her routine. Judge Inaba didn’t hold back with praise for Miller’s intensity and dedication.

The 30-Year-Old Cleared The Air On Her Facial Expression During ‘DWTS’ Debut

Miller and Armstrong made an emotional debut to Whitney Houston’s moving song “Exhale (Shoop Shoop)” that brought the ballroom to tears, including some judges. The duo landed a 15 out of 30 for their brilliant performance as they also bade farewell to some of their fellow contestants.

While the “Summer House” star and her partner soaked in the compliment, Miller’s demeanor caught fans’ attention and sparked conversation. Miller later told Entertainment Weekly that she fell short of words because she was soaking in the moment and mostly felt at peace about making it to the end of the performance.

The reality star continued on Threads that she dealt with severe anxiety throughout the night and worried about letting the viewers down. She reassured fans that her facial expressions meant no harm, as some fans said the look was more like fear than the disappointment speculated.

Ciara Miller Credited Emotional ‘DWTS’ Debut For Helping Her Close A Difficult Chapter

As noted by The Blast, Miller gave more context to her debut performance, which she dedicated to everyone in her life who helped her get through such a difficult time. She explained that appearing on that stage for the first time was more than landing the perfect score; it was also stepping into a new chapter.

Miller added that many of her struggles before the show happened privately, with her support system by her side, and that it was important to leave that painful chapter behind. Inaba’s comment made the night even more meaningful for Miller, as the judge saw the clear communication behind those moves.

Miller also described dance as an outlet that helps her address her emotions publicly without putting them into words, while embracing healing. For the rest of her ballroom journey, the reality TV star stressed that she is ready to loosen up and enjoy the competition.

Boxing Gloves To Baby Bottles? Here’s What Claressa Previously Said About Having Kids With Papoose

Claressa has never shied away from speaking on her future with Papoose. Back in December 2025, the boxing champ spilled all the tea about their baby plans during a chat with Fight Hype. At the time, Claressa said she hoped to have a baby this year, but she wanted to knock out a few fights first so she could fully focus on starting a family with Pap. In other instances, Shields has also made it clear that she doesn’t want to wait until her 40s or until she hangs up her gloves to become a mom. Instead, she wants to juggle motherhood AND her boxing career at the same time. Okayyy, future boss mom energy!

“I want to be able to run at the park with my kids and stuff like that. I don’t want to be too old. So, I think keeping my body in shape.. I don’t drink or smoke. I think that will also help me too, when I’m going through this whole body and life change,” Shields explained.

But when it comes to iconic sci-fi trilogies, the final entry in the Dune saga shouldn’t be the only title on your big-screen radar. There are few sci-fi trilogies as important and beloved as Back to the Future, with director Robert Zemeckis‘ and producer Steven Spielberg‘s timeless time-travel adventure taking audiences where they don’t need roads and defining the genre for generations. Michael J. Fox, fresh out of the TV series Family Ties, broke into Hollywood opposite Christopher Lloyd‘s enigmatic Doc Brown in the film’s three entries.

Dakota Johnson may not have walked the Milan Fashion Week runway, but she still became part of the spectacle.

The actress was spotted watching Machine Gun Kelly (MGK) make his runway debut at Vogue World: Milano. Her appearance came shortly after reports that the pair had gone on their first date in New York.

Dakota Johnson’s love life has drawn plenty of attention since her split from Chris Martin. She was later linked to Role Model before her reported connection with MGK emerged.

Dakota Johnson Watches MGK Take Over The Milan Runway

MGK, 36, walked at the Vogue World: Milano show on Tuesday, September 22. He stepped onto the runway wearing an orange Byblos jumpsuit during the Milan Fashion Week presentation. Johnson, also 36, watched from the front row.

She wore a black plunging midi dress with a sheer skirt as she took in the presentation. Johnson’s appearance reportedly came shortly after the pair’s first date at Taylor Swift’s New York apartment. A source previously said they “hit it off” and wanted privacy during their first outing.

The source explained to US Magazine that Johnson contacted Swift about using her apartment. Swift was reportedly away and has allowed close friends to use her place when she is not there. Their reported connection comes after both recently experienced changes in their respective romantic lives.

Johnson had been linked to Role Model after splitting from Chris Martin. MGK, meanwhile, had remained single following his complicated relationship with Megan Fox.

MGK Is Reportedly ‘Really Into’ Johnson

The Milan appearance followed a New York outing that initially left people wondering what was happening between Johnson and MGK. The pair had reportedly spent time together at Swift’s Tribeca apartment before heading out for dinner.

The Blast reported that a source described MGK as “really into” Johnson. The insider said he thought she was cool, was attracted to her, and believed there was definite chemistry between them.

The source also said the two were getting to know each other. MGK reportedly enjoyed that Johnson was funny, did not take herself too seriously, and made the evening feel comfortable.

However, the connection was not presented as a serious relationship yet. The insider said MGK was not putting a label on anything and wanted to spend more time with Johnson.

Their evening was reportedly not a major romantic production. They had dinner, talked, and spent time together without trying to make their connection public.

Privacy was reportedly important to both stars during the outing. Their social circles had already overlapped before this latest connection. Both stars attended Swift and Travis Kelce’s July wedding, where they reportedly crossed paths before spending more time together later.

Dakota Johnson Has A Romantic History With Musicians

The actress has previously been romantically linked to several musicians. She spent nearly eight years with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin. The pair dated on and off from 2017 until their final split in June 2025 and were reportedly engaged for years.

Johnson was later linked to Role Model, whose real name is Tucker Pillsbury. Their relationship reportedly began after they were spotted together in December 2025, before PEOPLE reported in August that they had quietly ended things.

The Blast revealed that one insider described musicians as Johnson’s apparent type, claiming she loves rock stars and is drawn to the rock-and-roll lifestyle. Another source compared her supposed attraction to musicians with Penny Lane from “Almost Famous.”

MGK also had a years-long relationship with Megan Fox, including an engagement, breakups, reconciliations, and eventually the birth of their daughter. The former couple welcomed Saga Blade in March 2025.

They had already ended their romantic relationship before their daughter’s arrival and later shifted their attention toward co-parenting. MGK is also a father to daughter Casie from his previous relationship with Emma Cannon.

The Duo Have Different Personalities

Johnson and MGK may have chemistry, but insiders described them as an unexpected pairing. Both are 36, which reportedly appeals to Johnson after dating men in different age groups. One insider said she loves that MGK is “in his 30s like she is.” MGK also reportedly appreciates Johnson’s Hollywood background.

She is the daughter of Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson, and granddaughter of Tippi Hedren. One source said MGK is “a little starstruck” because Johnson’s family is so famous. Their personalities are another noticeable difference. One source described MGK as “more eccentric and loud,” while Johnson is “more reserved and down to earth.” 

Another insider suggested they might “tame each other a little bit,” though it remains unclear whether that could last long-term. Another question is what they want from a relationship.

Johnson has said, “I really do,” when asked whether she wants children, while a source claimed MGK “isn’t looking for anything serious.” The pair also have demanding careers, with Johnson promoting “Verity” and MGK focused on his recording career.

MGK’s Last Runway Appearance Also Featured Another Leading Lady

MGK has previously made Milan Fashion Week part of his public image. His earlier appearance at a Dolce & Gabbana menswear show became memorable because of both his fashion choices and his relationship with Megan Fox.

The South China Morning Post reported that MGK headlined Dolce & Gabbana’s autumn/winter 2022-23 menswear show in Milan. The event took place during a reduced fashion calendar because the Omicron variant was spreading across Italy.

MGK reportedly made at least three wardrobe changes during that show. He also handed his jacket to Fox in the front row before performing at the end of the presentation.

The runway itself leaned heavily into the musician’s flamboyant style. Dolce & Gabbana showcased bold puffer coats, eco-furs, sequins, exaggerated shoulders, men’s skirts, and rock-inspired looks.

The rapper’s appearance also included statement-making pieces that matched his reputation for unconventional dressing. The collection featured bubblegum-pink puffer coats and trousers alongside graffiti prints. Another standout was a tall blue knit cap, compared to Marge Simpson.

The show also moved beyond traditional menswear. Tweed midi skirts, black kilts, shimmering minidresses and long tunics appeared alongside leggings and leather details. The overall collection carried a rock-and-roll attitude.
