As Rebel Wilson fights a Hollywood producer’s claims that she tried to damage her reputation, new legal documents have linked the legal battle to Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni’s now-settled It Ends With Us case. According to documents filed with the Superior Court of the State of California on Tuesday, August 25, and obtained by Us, Amanda Ghost has provided alleged correspondence sent by Wilson, 46, to the same PR company who Lively, 39, alleged orchestrated a smear campaign against her led by Baldoni, 42. In the documents, texts allegedly sent by Wilson to entertainment publicist Melissa Nathan, suggest that the Pitch Perfect star ordered Nathan to create anonymous websites that tarnished Ghost. (Ghost worked with Wilson on the star’s 2024 directorial debut The Deb, during which the pair experienced a falling out.) “Question – did you receive my text for the website?” Wilson allegedly wrote to Nathan, per the text exchange. “I never received an invoice.” Rebel Wilson Countersues ‘The Deb’ Producers Who Accused Her of Defamation Nathan’s alleged response read, “Morning, so sorry I was asleep. We have full text for the website we hadn’t heard from you – I know that it was a tough few days…

Jane Fonda and her 1A Committee formally defended actor and activist Mark Ruffalo Tuesday in a memo denouncing Paramount for labeling him “antisemitic” after he criticized the Ellison family, Oracle’s support of Israel and Paramount’s proposed $110 billion merger with Warner Bros. Discovery. The Oscar winner accused the studio of smearing the actor in an effort to deflect attention from legitimate concerns over the Ellisons’ business ties in the Middle East and more. “Mark Ruffalo has a First Amendment right to speak out about politics, powerful corporations and this dangerous merger — full stop,” Fonda said in a statement. “Calling his criticism antisemitic is a smear to delegitimize criticism of the merger and to distract from the question Paramount would rather not answer: Should one company be allowed to accumulate this much power over our movies, television and news?” Fonda added that the original Committee for the First Amendment was founded to stand against such tactics from “bully activists.” Fonda’s defense comes after Ruffalo attacked the Paramount-Warner Bros. merger in a Friday Instagram post, denouncing the business deal in part by drawing connections to the Ellison family’s ties to what he called Israel’s “genocide” in Gaza. “This is the company…

Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird announced plans Tuesday to take California’s Rob Bonta to the Supreme Court over the state’s Paramount lawsuit. Bird published an op-ed in Daily Wire sharing why she plans to bring California directly to the Supreme Court over filing a brief in the state. In the article, Bird argued that Paramount’s acquisition of Warner Bros. would help the economy rather than hurt it, stating that “twelve states have overridden that judgment for the entire country, and Iowans never got a vote.” “California is once again trying to be the country’s regulator. And once again California is defying common sense to raise costs around the country. That makes this a dispute between states, and the Constitution says those can only be heard in the U.S. Supreme Court,” Bird wrote. “Iowa cannot sue California in a district court, because Congress said so. Intervening in California’s chosen forum raises the same problem — at least until the Supreme Court tells us whether it agrees with Congress that it is the only court that can hear this case. Without that ruling, we would be walking into a case filed by California before a judge with no authority to decide a…

Adam Scott revealed that “Severance” Season 3 is currently in production on “The Today Show” with Craig Melvin Tuesday. “The Today Show” host asked the star of the Apple TV series what he could tell audiences about Season 3 since they have begun shooting. “I can tell you this. Shooting is officially underway for Season 3,” Scott said coyly. “And that’s it.” You can watch the moment yourself in the clip below. View this post on Instagram A post shared by TODAY (@todayshow) Melvin then pressed further and asked if fans would have to wait three years between seasons again. “Severance” Season 2 came out in 2025, three years after the first season, following delays from the SAG and WGA strikes. “We’re doing everything we can to try and make sure that doesn’t happen. You never know,” Scott said. “We want to make the best show possible, so whatever it takes.” “You were so disciplined in a non-message,” Melvin joked with the actor. “How far into the shooting are we?” Scott confirmed that they are a few weeks into production but added that they “just started.” When asked if the season would wrap production by Christmas, the actor answered generically,…

OutDaughtered stars Adam and Danielle Busby have opened up about homeschooling their 11-year-old quintuplets. “If you look at the statistics of homeschooled kids, they’re more adjusted to interactions,” Adam, 44, said on the Thursday, August 20, episode of the couple’s “More Than Reality” podcast. “Honestly, we know lots of homeschooled kids right now. The homeschooled kids are more adjusted to communicate with other adults … than, I think, the kids at school are. It’s the homeschooled kids that are actually looking me in the eyes and actually having a conversation with an adult.” Danielle, 42, also spoke about the academic benefits she’s seeing her having her all-girl quintuplets learning from their Friendswood, Texas, home. “This is where we’re at … academically, we have some struggles, on top of starting middle school where you’re faced with so much more,” the devout Christian explained. “Kids that age, they don’t see academics. They see, ‘What do I look like? Who’s my friend? What sport am I going to play? Do they like me? They don’t like my shoes. They made fun of me.’ All that stuff comes [to the] front when you’re in public school [and] before your academics. I’m trying to say,…

Jennifer Lawrence might be responsible for my next controversial shoe purchase. The actress stepped out in kitten heels earlier this spring, and while I wasn’t ready to join the backless-shoe bandwagon then, I’m actually considering the style. Suddenly, the polarizing look is exactly what my fall wardrobe is missing. Lawrence was spotted wearing pointed-toe kitten heels with a black midi dress and sparkly silver bag. It was cool, slightly unexpected and proof that the divisive shoes can make even the simplest staples feel more fashion-forward. I’m officially sold, so I found five Lawrence-inspired kitten heels to shop now. 5 Jennifer Lawrence-Inspired Black Mule Heels 1. My Favorite: If I’m copying Lawrence’s controversial shoe choice, I’m starting with these pointed-toe kitten heels. The tiny heel and backless silhouette look strikingly similar. At $53, they’re an easy way to test-drive the trend. 2. Luxe Look: Texture makes these pointed-toe mules look designer-like. The black croc finish is my pick for copying Lawrence, but they also come in white and burgundy croc for a bolder fall moment. 3. Super Sleek: I can already tell these $40 mules will become a regular in my shoe rotation. The pointed toe and low heel are polished without…

When “Gladiator II” was nearing its release, filmmaker Ridley Scott spoke to Empire about the need to “embrace AI” and technological advancements in the medium of film and digital effects. Now, ahead of the release of “The Dog Stars,” Scott is warning against the broader real-world implications of AI — and specifically the people who sell it. “My concern is that an AI can tap into every electrical system in every — think about the electrical system. It’s a system. It’s a vein. If they tap into the (circuiting) board, you can control the world,” Scott said in a new interview with Starmus Festival co-founders Garik Israelian and Queen’s Brian May. “For fun, you can switch off everything. Everything.” “Is it giving power to the AI, or is it giving power to the people who are creating the AI?” May asked. “You cannot trust that. You can’t trust that responsibility because they’re — I won’t name names, but you know who the f–k they are — they don’t give a s–t.” Scott sat down with the co-founders of the international festival dedicated to astronomy, art and sciences, where he was awarded the 2026 Stephen Hawking Medal for Science Communication. The trio spoke deeply…
