Daily Mail reported Brown left the courthouse in a dark hood and black mask after the postponement, with the underlying charge still tied to a May 2025 shooting outside a boxing event in Florida. The delay was not a collapse of the deal on the merits. The judge said she had been in the…Open

A new Tom Brady biography brands the long-running story of his split from a pregnant Bridget Moynahan as “fiction”, and still shows a timeline that barely works in his favor. Page Six reports that biographer Lars Anderson takes direct aim at the old gossip script in his book “Brady: An American Story and the Price of Greatness,” which hit shelves as the coverage landed. Anderson told Us Weekly that after “the math,” the timeline “barely works in Tom’s favor.” He still called the widespread narrative “fiction.” That matters because the public version of this breakup has followed Brady for years. The book does not erase the mess. It tries to pin down the order of events. December 2006, then a Paris phone call Brady and…Open

Fans of Leonardo DiCaprio’s film keep treating a humble Humboldt County grocery like a tourist landmark, hunting a pay phone that was only a movie prop and never stayed in the store. Roughly a year after One Battle After Another hit screens, visitors still stream into Murphy’s Market in Cutten, California, looking for the telephone from a chaotic Leonardo DiCaprio scene. NY Post reporting on the fan traffic makes one point plain: the phone is gone because it was never the store’s to begin with. Employees now spend part of their shifts explaining Hollywood basics to people who shopped there for milk long before the cameras arrived. The Paul Thomas Anderson film cast DiCaprio as Bob Ferguson, a washed-up revolutionary racing to find…Open

According to employees at Murphy's Market, what activities are fans performing at the store besides searching for the prop phone?
Fans have been known to pose with a PRIMO water refill machine, storm the aisles to copy DiCaprio's panicked sprint, crowd the checkout for specific sunglasses seen on screen, film the storefront in the parking lot, and visit the public restroom because it contains the same seat used in the movie.

Why are fans visiting Murphy’s Market to look for a pay phone that is no longer there?
