West Wilson is at the center of yet another controversy this week.

And once again, the Summer House star might once again be feeling a little overexposed.

Speaking with Sophie Cunningham on Wednesday’s episode of the “Show Me Something” podcast, West revealed that nude photos of his have leaked online.

But the worst part, according to West, is not the violation of his privacy but the fact that the pics are not especially flattering.

“They’re not even sexual; they look medical. I’m soft in all of them. I don’t even know if the other two are me,” he explained (via TMZ).

Yes, West might be having a hard time lately — but he wasn’t when the pics were snapped, if you know what we mean.

Wilson says he found out about the leaked photos when he got a text message about them “five seconds before I walked onstage” to film the Summer House Season 10 reunion last month.

As we previously reported, audio from that reunion later leaked online, so West is dealing with all kinds of security breaches these days!

As for that leak, West denies that he was in any way responsible.

And while Bravo says they’ve identified and punished the leaker, West claims he still doesn’t know who it was.

“I’m gonna ask eventually,” he told Sophie.

All of this comes on the heels of news that West is dating his Summer House co-star Amanda Batula.

Their announcement created quite a stir due to their past connections (until recently, Amanda was married to Kyle Cooke, while West dated Batula’s bestie, Ciara Miller).

So we guess it’s not surprising that West is so chill about his nudes being leaked. After all, he’s been showing off his junk to anyone who’s interested lately.

Hayden Panettiere has seen many ups and downs in her life, and through them all, she’s been admirably honest and open with her fans.

Now, Hayden has revealed that she has been holding one thing back — she’s bisexual.

The actress shared the news with fans while promoting her upcoming memoir.

“That’s something about me I was never able to share with the world because it was just never the right time,” she told Us Weekly in a new interview, adding:

“It was either I was too young, and I was being forced to be perfect at all times; I was not encouraged to just be myself.

“Then came the period where it felt like people coming out, especially women, saying that they were bisexual or liked girls, was a fad. I was afraid that if I was honest it was going to be like me jumping on the bandwagon. It was a very difficult topic to articulate properly.”

Hayden added that it is “sad I had to wait until I was 36 years old to share that part of me, but better late than never, right?”

“I have explored it, but because I hadn’t shared this with anybody, I didn’t really have the courage to throw myself fully emotionally into it. Because then if I did fall in love that wasn’t something that I wanted to ever have to hide,” she explained, adding:

“Now that I know that this book is coming out, and that I’ve chosen to share it with the world, I’m comfortable to confidently say that yes, I am bisexual. I said it! This is the first time I got to say it out loud.”

Hayden announced the book on her Instagram page back in January, writing:

“Some stories are only yours to tell… My new memoir This is Me: A Reckoning releases May 12th! Link to pre-order is in my bio. Here we go!!!”

During her years in the public eye, Hayden has battled addiction and been at the center of multiple tabloid dramas.

Her tumultuous relationship with Brian Hickerson attracted plenty of unwanted attention from the press.

When her brother, Jansen Panettiere, passed away in 2023 at the age of 28, Hayden once again found herself at the center of a media firestorm.

Needless to say, it’s clear why she might wish to control the narrative herself for a change.

This is Me: A Reckoning will be in stores on May 12.

On Tuesday, the world was shocked by news that Houston restaurateur Matthew Mitchell had murdered his wife, Thy Mitchell, and their two children before taking his own life.

And it now looks as though the couple had ties to some of the Food Network’s biggest stars, including Guy Fieri.

While police are still withholding many details, one of the victims’ family members confirmed the identities of the deceased.

“We are heartbroken to share that my sister, Thy, and her beloved children, Maya and Max, passed away last night,” Thy’s sister, Ly Mai, wrote on Facebook (via The New York Post).

“Our family is grieving deeply and asks for privacy during this incredibly difficult time. Funeral arrangements will be shared when they are available.”

Again, few details have been released by police, but investigators did issue a statement confirming that the scene was as Mai described it:

“Evidence on scene indicated the incident was a murder-suicide in which the male shot the three victims and then shot himself,” police said in a statement.

Several media outlets have now confirmed that the couple appeared on mukltiple Food Network programs, including Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives with host Fieri.

A chef who worked for the Mitchells also appeared on Beat Bobby Flay, where he emerged victorious in a competition with the celebrity chef.

The Mitchells were well-known in Houston for their highly regarded restaurant, Travelers Table, which served “globally curated cuisine” inspired by the Michells’ extensive travels.

According to his webstite, Matthew Mitchell earned a bachelor’s degree from Emory University and worked as a writer and journalist in London, Paris, and New York City.

Upon returning to Texas, he attended Rice University and worked as a CEO in the pharmaceutical industry before opening a restaurant with his wife.

Our thoughts go out to all of those affected by this horrific tragedy.

Monday was a big day for Blake Lively.

She settled her legal war with Justin Baldoni and, hours later, attended the Met Gala.

These have been an exhausting few years for her — and for her husband.

Has the smear campaign put a strain on their marriage? Here’s what Ryan Reynolds is hinting.

You can say a lot with just one selfie

Blake had been slated to go head-to-head against her former co-star on May 18.

Instead, exactly two weeks before facing off in court, they reached a settlement.

There was instant debate over who “won” the settlement. And, of course, over who “lost.”

Throughout this miserable PR mess, rumors have circulated to suggest that Blake’s marriage was suffering under pressure, that her husband didn’t want to support her or straight-up didn’t believe her.

We’d say that Ryan Reynolds seems to be making his feelings pretty clear.

On Tuesday, May 5, he took to his Instagram Story to share this selfie.

His face looks peaceful, happy, and content. Ryan Reynolds is historically someone who smiles a lot with his eyes.

Beside him is his wife. Blake is flashing a toothy grin in a makeup-free look, cradling her husband’s head with one arm.

They look beautiful. (Seriously, this post is also a flex, reminding the world that they’re absolute knockouts.)

For the record, the snugly still is accompanied by Millie Jackson’s “Here You Come Again.” The whole post radiates coziness.

What does it mean? And who ‘won’ the settlement?

We are not body language experts or microexpression experts. And, to be blunt, it’s reasonable to feel leery of anyone claiming to be either.

But, at a glance and under inspection, this post appears to signal that Ryan and Blake are happy.

Maybe they chose peace on purpose.

Perhaps settling the lawsuit was the best option left to them after the judge threw out most of her complaints — not on a basis of fact, but due to Blake being an “independent contractor” and thus not protected by Title VII protections.

Either way, they seem happy. They could be faking it for the camera, but to what end?

As for the “who won” question … there’s a lot that we don’t know.

The joint statement that she and Baldoni released was carefully phrased. It offered a shoutout to Blake, but not to him, while admitting no wrongdoing on anyone’s part.

Some would call this a win for Baldoni — even though millions of people had never heard of him before this, and this will define him in their minds forever.

(That and what Jenny Slate said about him.)

Others have opined that the real winner might be women in general. We’ve all seen how vile these trials can be, especially as they are litigated by opportunists and agitators on TikTok and beyond. Sometimes, broader justice means not having to relive that kind of horror.

Ryan Reynolds Hints at True Feelings After Blake Lively Settles Lawsuit was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip.

Psychologist-turned-self-help guru Jordan Peterson has made a career out of advising men on how to overcome setbacks.

And now, the famed media figure is grappling with some major difficulties of his own.

Back in 2019, Peterson’s wife was diagnosed with kidney cancer. He was so distraught by the news that he developed an addiction to Klonopin, a benzodiazepine drug.

Years after being hospitalized for withdrawal, Peterson has once again stepped away from the spotlight due to health issues related to his addiction.

And Tammy says it’s unclear if or when he will return to public life.

“Dr. Peterson is at home with family and helpful companions… he is not talking about going back to work yet,” Tammy Peterson told the New York Post this week, adding that he “feels as if he’s in another realm of pain.”

“His mornings are brutally painful and discouraging for him. Later, much later in the day, he sometimes feels some relief,” she continued, adding:

“The damage done from psych medications from over six years ago takes patience, time, and loving attention.”

In the years since Peterson began struggling with addiction and withdrawal, Tammy has become an outspoken critic of benzo medications, warning that they “should only be used in lifesaving cases.”

“There are many testimonials written by people who have suffered from psych medication damage… The medical industry will have to face this evidence and take steps to protect the public from harm,” she recently told the Post.

“I was in excruciating pain for two years, like pain on levels that I didn’t know was possible,” he said.

The Daily Mail reported that family friend Jonathan Pageau described Peterson as “overwhelmed with pain and discomfort” after only brief periods of conversation. 

Peterson has dealt with a wide array of health issues in recent years, and many have suggested that he would do well to stop counseling young men (and suggesting bizarre diets), when he appears to have so many difficulties in his own life.

“I think what’s happened to Peterson is awful and I wish him the best, but it really does show that maybe he should have been a little less judgmental of people who are dealt a bad hand in life and not hectored them quite so aggressively about personal responsibility,” journalist Nathan Robinson wrote on X (formerly Twitter) this week.

That’s certainly valid criticism, and the harsh tone of Peterson’s “advice” was a topic of frequent criticism even before he became ill.

But like so many others who might take issue with some of his views, we wish Dr. Peterson and his family well as they face these new challenges together.

Monday night’s charity ball may have been the most controversial Met Gala in many years.

Not everyone participated in the boycott, however.

Rihanna was spectacularly dressed in a gem-encrusted work of art. She was a work of art, as always.

But a pair of videos from the event appears to show serious tensions with A$AP Rocky. Are they okay?

Trouble in paradise?

A tweeted video showed A$AP speaking amicably with a couple of women at the Met Gala.

Rihanna was being interviewed at the time.

However, the beloved singer — just a few feet away from her man — appeared distracted.

Distracted and displeased.

Most believe that A$AP’s friendly chat with these other women had disturbed her.

oh so this is why they were arguing- pic.twitter.com/sb3R7DDUrZ

— welp. (@YSLONIKA) May 6, 2026

As you can see, RiRi’s smile brightened as she spoke to the reporter.

Perhaps the discussion was a welcome interruption of her unhappy thoughts.

It is also possible that she was simply putting on a smile out of politeness, instead of staring vacantly ahead.

However, something appeared to be on her mind.

We’d normally say that people are reading too much into one video. But there’s more.

There was more apparent conflict after the gala

The day after the Met Gala, TMZ reported that she and A$AP had been caught on camera after the Met Gala.

More and more celebrities are using Sprinter busses (like Real Housewives), in part to preserve their dresses and increase their comfort.

As you can see below, RiRi and her man appeared to be having an emotional discussion in theirs.

We are not privy to what they were discussing. It is always possible that people are misreading what’s going on.

But even before the video of the singer giving side-eye to her overly friendly man, people suspected that there were tensions at play.

Just for the record, we haven’t seen any other indications of tensions between the two.

In fact, a witness told TMZ that they seemed happy during most of the night.

Also, they have been dating since 2020 — if not earlier.

The couple also shares three young children.

Maybe there’s something more going on. Perhaps it really was just about A$AP being a little too friendly for his partner’s tastes. Or, you know, maybe this was nothing, and people only noticed because it’s Rihanna.

This sounds like it’s for the best.

Last summer, aspiring lawyer Kim Kardashian took the California Bar exam.

Months later, she and the rest of the world learned that she failed.

Kim is in no rush to retake it. In fact, she doesn’t plan to try again all year.

Better luck next time?

TMZ reports that, after last year’s failed attempt to pass the California Bar exam, Kim is taking a break.

Her next chance to take the grueling legal test that gatekeeps who is allowed to be a practicing attorney in the nation’s most populous state was February 2026.

However, she reportedly skipped that test-taking session.

The next chance — one of two opportunities that aspiring attorneys have each year to take the exam — will be this July.

According to the report, Kim plans to skip that, too.

Kim’s next potential bite at the apple will be in 2027.

She will actually be able to take her time deciding, as registration for the February 2027 exam will be in early January.

It’s unclear if Kim will actually take the exam at that point. We know from her own words that failing her first attempt at the Bar “broke” her confidence.

(Only about forty-to-seventhy percent of people pass the Bar on their first try. It is normal to attempt it multiple times.)

It took Kim four tries before she passed the “baby Bar” exam. This could follow the same pattern.

It’s okay to give up sometimes!

At the risk of sounding just … incredibly mean … we have to point out that Kim could always drop this ambition.

She is a successful businesswoman. For better or for worse, she’s also one of the most influential people on the planet.

Kim has also dipped her toes into acting, though admittedly All’s Fair was pretty widely panned despite a spectacular cast.

Oh, and she was also born into a rich family. One could argue that she was a success from birth.

We get that she likes to throw her resources behind good causes, that she wants to walk in the footsteps of her late father, and that (some dread) she may have political aspirations. But she doesn’t have to be an attorney, right?

Kim may also have sabotaged her own attempt to prepare for the Bar Exam by just being embarrassingly gullible.

Last year, we learned that she has been using Chat GPT for legal advice. This is a notoriously bad idea, and has seen buffoons who try it in court reprimanded by judges for turning in slop instead of real filings.

Now, Kim wasn’t using slop nonsense in court. She was using it to study, which just points to an apparent lack of understanding of what LLMs are.

This is a woman who voluntarily drives a Cybertruck sometimes (gross!) and believes that the moon landing was fake, so … would you want her representing you in court?

Paying your legal bills, absolutely. Representing you? Like we said … maybe she doesn’t need to retake the Bar exam.

We have sad news to report from the world of television today.

Ted Turner — the philanthropist and media mogul best known for founding CNN — has passed away at the age of 87.

News of Turner’s passing comes courtesy of the outlet he created in 1980, bringing the first 24-hour news network to the world.

Born in Cincinnati in 1938, Turner had massive ambitions from a very young age.

After being expelled from Brown University, he took over the family advertising business following his father’s suicide in 1963.

Shortly thereafter, Turner launched the Atlanta-based “superstation” TBS, and his television catreer was off and running.

In 1980, Turner launched CNN amid widespread skepticism. Critics mocked it as the “Chicken Noodle Network,” convinced it would collapse under its own ambition.

Instead, it became one of the most influential media platforms on the planet, covering everything from wars to elections to natural disasters in real time.

Through Turner Broadcasting System, Turner helped bring TBS and TNT into millions of homes, reshaping cable television into the media landscape we know today.

Turner also had a soft spot for classic films, which led to the creation of Turner Classic Movies, which remains a haven for cinephiles that still stands as one of his most beloved contributions.

His personal life drew just as much attention as his boardroom decisions, including his high-profile marriage to actress Jane Fonda, which brought together two powerful, outspoken personalities under one very public spotlight.

Turner also became one of the largest private landowners in the United States and dedicated significant resources to conservation.

His work in environmental philanthropy — particularly through initiatives tied to the United Nations — showed a man thinking not just about media cycles, but about the future of the planet itself.

Turner made history when he donated $1 billion to the organization, at the time the largest charitable donation in history.

During his wide-ranging and wildly accomplished career, Turner also became owner of the Atlanta Braves, the Atlanta Hawks, and the World Championship Wrestling league.

His passion for the environment led him to co-create the beloved cartoon series Captain Planet and the Planeteers with the goal of educating children on the importance of conservation.

It’s impossible to overstate Turner’s impact on the world or the enormity of his loss.

He is survived by his five children. Our thoughts go out to his loved ones.

A little over a month ago, Savannah Guthrie returned to The Today Show.

She had been away from NBC’s flagship morning show for a little over two months, grappling with her mother’s disappearance.

There was a lot of anticipation about her return to the desk.

But a jarring new report says that NBC felt so disappointed by the episode that some wish that she’d remained off the air for a little while longer.

Her absence was never supposed to be about ratings

According to a report from RadarOnline, both viewers and even some colleagues haven’t welcomed back Savannah as warmly as one might have assumed.

She returned to The Today Show on Monday, April 6.

On-screen, everyone seemed glad to have her back — even as they felt respectfully heartbroken over her family’s loss.

Reportedly, her comeback did not draw morbidly curious crowds that some of NBC’s bigwigs had expected.

Maybe it was that Nancy was (and is) still missing. Maybe it’s just that we live in chaotic times. But Savannah’s return almost felt like business as usual to some.

“The show really thought this was going to be a massive moment,” an alleged source told RadarOnline.

“Everybody at NBC thought there were going to be hundreds of people, if not thousands of people, in the plaza,” the insider continued.

“They’d hired extra security,” the source claimed. “They thought that this was going to be like a pop concert, like Justin Bieber in the plaza.”

While a “decent” number of fans showed up in person, it wasn’t a stampede.

And the six percent boost in viewership from the previous week meant that the numbers “were not up like the show thought it would be.”

We of course cannot verify the report from the alleged insider

As you can see, people were overjoyed to see Savannah return.

She was also tearful, not only during her interview with Hoda Kotb, but at times during her return.

After all, she didn’t step away from the show to go on vacation. Her mother disappeared on February 1 following a violent kidnapping.

It is not unreasonable to assume that Nancy Guthrie died very early into her disappearance, but we don’t know for sure.

In fact, that uncertainty makes all of this so painful. Savannah and the rest of her family do not yet have closure. Many fear that this will never change.

Even now, there are some sick and twisted individuals spinning conspiracy theories about Nancy’s disappearance. Some even blame Savannah.

We get it — it’s not exciting for a low-level criminal to kidnap a news anchor’s mom, botch the job, and go to ground while incompetent federal authorities go to party it up at the Olympics for some reason.

But evil is so often banal. The truth does not have to be exciting — and it seldom is.

We don’t believe that Savannah or her comeback were responsible for the ratings only being slightly higher.

The Today Show mostly exists to be background noise and “company,” especially for older folks. These would be the individuals most invested in the Guthrie case.

Some shows have a finite audience — especially in the age of streaming.

Savannah Guthrie’s ‘TODAY’ Return Reportedly Disappointed NBC was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip.

Back in March, Joseph Duggar was arrested amid allegations that he molested a 9-year-old girl during a trip to Florida in 2020.

Joseph is out on bond after posting $600,000 bail and pleading not guilty.

And as he prepares for trial, Joseph is demanding the right to speak to investigators whose information led to his arrest.

According to The Ashley’s Reality Roundup, Joe’s legal team has filed court documents requesting that the judge allow them to question individuals from the Department of Children and Families, Child Protection Team, and any other law enforcement agency involved in the investigation.

Joe reportedly filed a “Motion to Compel” on May 1, which asks the court to compel disclosure of information obtained in the investigation up to this point.

As we previously reported, Joe was arrested after his accuser told her parents about what had happened.

Police then conducted a “forensic interview” with the alleged victim, who is now 14.

Joseph’s legal team now wants to interview anyone who works for DCF, law enforcement, or any of the government agencies connected to Joe’s case.

In his latest filing, Joseph alleges that these witnesses “conducted an investigation of the child who is the alleged victim in this case.”

He now believes he is “entitled” to receive their testimonies, as well as “records and evidence in the possession of the witnesses for a fair determination of [Joe’s] guilt or innocence at trial.”

The accuser’s identity has not been made public, but Us Weekly reports that she has ties to the family of Joseph’s wife, Kendra Caldwell.

A post shared by Page Six (@pagesix)

“[Kendra’s parents] Christina and Paul Caldwell are not hiding the fact that Joseph’s victim is [close to the Caldwell family],” a source tells the outlet.

“Christina has told other members of their church, but she is not sure she wants to talk about it so publicly. That is what she’s struggling with, but she is not hiding it.”

The insider added that the alleged molestation took place while Joseph was on vacation with his in-laws in Panama City Beach.

“When [the alleged sexual assault] happened, Joseph was on vacation with Kendra and her family,” they stated.

“No other Duggar [family members] were there … As years passed, [the alleged victim] understood more and got the courage to tell her family. Just like the police report says, when she told her family, they acted on it.”

The Caldwells have issued a statement supporting the accuser. Insiders say they are no longer on speaking terms with Joseph and Kendra.

Joseph has yet to speak publicly on the charges against him.

We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.
