President Trump is publicly pushing U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro to reverse course on a dropped felony vandalism case tied to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, even as prosecutors say the damage was caused by a contractor, not the defendant. Trump took to Truth Social on Friday to share photos he said came from a freelance photographer and to urge Pirro to reconsider her decision to dismiss the indictment against former Olympian David Hearn, a 67-year-old canoeist who competed in the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney. Hearn had been charged with one count of felony destruction of property, a charge that carried a potential ten-year sentence, after U.S. Park Police alleged he grabbed and tugged at a loose section of the Reflecting Pool's…Open

Molly Ringwald ranked "The Secret Life of the American Teenager" as the worst project of her career on live television, blaming one unnamed "difficult" person for the experience. The 58-year-old actress appeared on Tuesday's episode of "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen," where the host asked her to rank her past projects on a scale of one to ten. Ringwald put the ABC Family drama at the very bottom, a one, and didn't hesitate about it. "The worst is one?" Ringwald asked, confirming the scale. "That was it. The worst." Five seasons and 96 episodes of work, and she gave it the lowest score possible. The show ran from 2008 to 2013, meaning Ringwald spent roughly five years on a set she now calls her least favorite. Ringwald praised…Open

The legendary soft rock duo Air Supply and co-headliners Little River Band saw their upcoming Fresno concert scrapped by organizers just 48 hours before the curtain was set to rise, and nobody has said why.

The author behind Game of Thrones broke a six-month silence on his personal blog to disclose a year of loss, sadness, and struggle with depression, even as his fictional empire keeps expanding. George R.R. Martin, 77, published what he called his first self-penned blog post since February, telling readers that assistants, his "minions", had been writing updates on his behalf for months. The post he wrote himself carried a different tone. It was personal, blunt, and heavy. Martin's admission lands at a moment when his professional life, by any external measure, looks enviable. House of the Dragon Season 3 has returned to strong ratings and good reviews. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Season 1 earned nine Emmy nominations, including…Open

James Haven, the 53-year-old actor and older brother of Angelina Jolie, publicly came out as gay during a livestream with his ex-wife, less than two years after their marriage was annulled over claims of "fraud."

USA TODAY reported that representatives for Jolie and their father, veteran actor Jon Voight, did not respond to requests for comment. Haven and Imbelli married in August 2024.
