Last July, there was big news, at least for the podcast world. Bobby Althoff signed off. In 2023, the then 25-year-old started The Really Good Podcast. At the time, she had a large following (approximately 1.2 million) on TikTok, which she had built by posting parenting and pregnancy-related content, but she had not stepped into the world of podcasting. So it was hard to believe that just a few months later, she would be interviewing Drake. This was a major acquisition for the fledgling host, making her a source of fascination across the internet and spurring the explosive success of…

Shia LaBeouf, once considered “Hollywood’s last bad boy,” had no problem locking up women. In fact, the actor previously called himself a “serial monogamist.” But it appears the 39-year-old is in trouble when it comes to love and the law, as he was recently arrested and charged with two counts of simple assault in New Orleans, nearly a year after sources said he and Mia Goth had quietly broken up. The incident in the Big Easy is not the first time the actor has been accused of abuse, as several of his exes, including ex-boyfriends FKA Twigs and Goss, have…

Netflix on Tuesday threatened ByteDance with “immediate litigation,” joining three other studios accusing the company of enabling copyright infringement through its Seedance 2.0 AI service. Netflix has sent a cease-and-desist letter to the Chinese company demanding that it remove intellectual property from its training dataset and put guardrails in place to prevent further infringement. “Sedance acts as a high-velocity piracy engine, producing a flood of unauthorized derivative works that utilize Netflix’s iconic characters, worlds, and scripted stories,” litigation director Mindy LeMoyne wrote. “Netflix will not sit idly by as ByteDance treats our valuable IP as free public domain clip art.”…

As you say. . . Hilaria Earth! Hilaria Baldwin, who once blamed an “organized mob” for questioning her evolving accent, showed she could make fun of the controversy at Gurus Magazine’s Valentine’s-themed lunch, according to a spy.

The company did not indicate any intention to raise the price of a hostile takeover, but said it was ready to begin M&A negotiations within the seven-day negotiation period opened by WBD. “While the actions of the[Warner Bros.
