To make things even sweeter, they're both headed to Tokyo to compete in their respective events this summer!

The cast of Zola stepped out in full force for the LA screening of the highly anticipated film on Tuesday. Director Janicza Bravo, Riley Keough, Colman Domingo, Dave Franco, and Nelcie Souffrant all hit the red carpet together, and they were even joined by the real-life Zola herself , A'Ziah King. Also in attendance were Jodie Turner-Smith, Isis King, Arlo Parks, and several other stars. Noticeably absent, though, was Taylour Paige, as she's currently in Bulgaria . However, she did take a moment to celebrate the film's release on Twitter. "I love you everyone! 11:37AM in Bulgaria with happy tender tears that our movie Zola is officially live!!!" she tweeted. "Whoever is to receive it, enjoy it, absorb it, love it might it find you. So appreciative of it all. Life is crazy."

Bill Cosby will be released from prison after the Pennsylvania State Supreme Court overturned his sexual assault conviction on June 30. This comes three years after the disgraced comedian was found guilty of aggravated indecent assault against Andrea Constand, and sentenced to three to 10 years at a state prison just outside Philadelphia. The court came to its decision after Cosby's defense challenged the conviction on two fronts . First, they opposed the trial judge's decision to allow five other accusers to testify their respective accounts when the jury was deadlocked. The defense also alleged the prosecution had previously promised Cosby they would not charge him after doubting the "likelihood of a successful prosecution." This agreement made it so that Cosby incriminated himself in a subsequent civil lawsuit. That testimony would go on to be presented during the criminal trial. "It would be antithetical to, and corrosive of, the integrity and functionali...

When NXIVM was exposed as a cult dealing in sex trafficking in 2017 by The New York Times , its top members and their shady dealings were also exposed - including Smallville actress Allison Mack. In HBO's documentary, The Vow , viewers saw how leader Keith Raniere convinced people to join and Mack's influence in drawing women in. What was perceived years ago as an organization for empowerment and finding control in your life quickly devolved into something much, much darker. Mack was originally recruited to NXIVM by her Smallville costar, Kristin Kreuk, in 2006, according to The Hollywood Reporter . Kreuk brought Mack to an NXIVM meeting in Vancouver, and the leaders of the group - who knew she was coming - swooped in to hook her. And while Kreuk - as well as other actors who joined NXIVM - didn't stay with the group for long, Mack found herself moving up the ranks to become Raniere's go-to for recruiting new members. According to several accounts from other actor...

Remember Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide ? Y'know, that Nickelodeon sitcom you may have watched after school back in the mid-2000s before begrudgingly starting your homework? Well, a few of the cast members just reunited on TikTok, and seeing them all grown up outside of James K. Polk Middle School is making me want to start filling out my AARP application. Devon Werkheiser, who plays the lead role of Ned Bigby on the show, recently teamed up with Lindsey Shaw (Jennifer "Moze" Mosely) and Daniel Curtis Lee (Simon "Cookie" Nelson-Cook) to crank out some highly nostalgic TikTok content together. Instead of sharing their tips for making it through middle school in one piece like they used to back in the day, they doled out some life advice for adults who grew up watching them on screen - well, sort of. In a series of videos, Werkheiser called up both Shaw and Lee to see if they had any pointers to contribute to a modern-day survival guide of sorts,...

From left: Ada Jaurez, Edith Johnson, and Téa Campbell Meet Me at the Altar 's band name came serendipitously over a text. Drummer Ada Jaurez and guitarist Téa Campbell were swapping messages in 2015 when they stumbled across the moniker that would label them as Gen Z's next great punk group. An occurrence like this feels perfectly suited for this trio - Juarez, Campbell, and lead vocalist, Edith Johnson - who all connected virtually before Zoom call meetings were the norm. They organized a band in different states and wrote songs miles apart, with a shared vision to bring a 2008 sound back to the foreground. Flash forward six years, and Meet Me a the Altar finally live under the same roof. They're able to collaborate in the same room instead of over texts, which is ideal considering the group is releasing their debut EP, Model Citizen , on August 13. They're the proud recipients of Halsey's Black Creators Fund . They're also prepping to tour with All Time Lo...

For centuries and across many cultures, humans looked up at the stars and planets for guidance. The contemporary stargazer is no different, really — only now, there's a lot more information to wade through in their search for astrological knowledge. Since podcasting is a modern medium grounded in other ancient practices like oral storytelling, it can be a great guide into these vast, ever-expanding practices of divine planetary exploration. Whether you're into astrology, magic, divination, tarot, or another form of cosmic spirituality, there is undoubtedly a show that's right for you. With the advent of technology, there's never been more access to these previously esoteric practices. That can be both a blessing and a curse for many reasons, like a higher potential to appropriate other people's culture . That's why we're here to help point you in the right direction to the podcast that unlocks what the stars and planets have in store for you. 1. The Lumi...

Kyle Massey, who previously starred on Disney Channel's That's So Raven and Cory in the House , has reportedly been charged with one count of immoral communication with a minor . According to court documents obtained by People , the felony charge was filed on June 14 in Washington state. The court documents also reveal that Kyle didn't show up for his his arraignment scheduled on Monday in King's County. The charges comes after Massey was sued in early 2019 for allegedly sending explicit photos, texts, and videos to a 13-year-old girl. The case was eventually dismissed, but People reports that the recent felony charge stems from the same allegations from the 2019 lawsuit. In the lawsuit, the girl alleged that she met Kyle when she was 4 years old and stayed in touch because she wanted to pursue a career in entertainment. She alleged that they kept in contact and Kyle developed a close relationship with her family. They reportedly reconnected in November 2018, when ...

The singer, whose real name is Abel Tesfaye, is set to star in and cowrite a new cult drama series for HBO titled The Idol .

If the end credits of Loki episode four are to be believed, it looks like things may have gotten a lot more complicated for the God of Mischief. Shortly after discovering that the Time-Keepers are nothing more than "mindless androids," Loki is pruned just as he's about to bare his soul to Sylvie after their time on Lamentis-1. It isn't until the credits roll that we find out if that's the last we'll be seeing of that particular Loki. It's understandable that Loki thinks he's in "Hel," the underworld in Norse mythology. His wonderings are quickly interrupted by four other Loki variants: Kid Loki (Jack Veal), Classic Loki (Richard E. Grant), Boastful Loki (DeObia Oparei), and Alligator Loki. If he wants to live, he's told to come with them. So what does this mean for our Loki and the future of the show? If this post-apocalyptic New York City wasteland is where all variants go after they've been pruned, maybe the newly pruned Mobius ...

During cross-country red-eye flights, while her passengers slept, T.J. Newman looked out at her passengers and wondered: when hundreds of lives depend on one pilot's actions, what happens when he faces an impossible decision that puts them all at risk? From that chilling question, the former flight attendant wrote Falling (out July 6), a heart-pounding debut novel that might be this summer's most-talked-about thriller. When the plot kicks off, Bill, a career pilot for Coastal Airways, has just reached cruising altitude. As his plane jets from Los Angeles to New York City, he receives an email from his wife, Carrie - strange, because they'd been in a nasty argument when Bill left for his flight. He opens the email to see a photo of Carrie and their young son, bound and blindfolded in their living room, with a bomb strapped to Carrie's chest. Soon, the next message comes through: his family has been kidnapped. To keep them alive, Bill has to crash his plane and kill ev...

Christina Aguilera is voicing her support for Britney Spears. During a court hearing on June 23, Britney requested for her years-long conservatorship be terminated, detailing the "abusive" arrangement that is stopping her from living a full life, including getting married or having kids. On Monday, Christina reacted to the court hearing in a series of emotional tweets, reiterating that Britney deserves all the love and support in the world. "These past few days I've been thinking about Britney and everything she is going through," she wrote alongside a throwback photo of her and Britney from their Mickey Mouse Club days. "It is unacceptable that any woman, or human, wanting to be in control of their own destiny might not be allowed to live life as they wish. To be silenced, ignored, bullied or denied support by those 'close' to you is the most depleting, devastating and demeaning thing imaginable. The harmful mental and emotional damage this can tak...
