Austin Butler explains how an 'edible' led to his awkward dance moves at Bad Bunnys concert
Los Angeles [US], August 14 (ANI): US actor Austin Butler says he didn't plan for his dance moves to go viral after he attended 'Caught Stealing' co-star Bad Bunny's concert in Puerto Rico earlier this month. According to PEOPLE, Butler, in a recent episode of 'The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon,' revealed what exactly happened that night. The 33-year-old actor explained that he was at the concert with 'Caught Stealing' director Darren Aronofsky. Butler thought they were just going to be part of the audience, but instead, they ended up on a secondary stage during a part of the show. To make things more interesting, Butler said he was given an edible right before the concert. "I thought it was a good idea, but it was not," he said with a laugh. Butler, who says he doesn't like being the centre of attention, found himself torn. "So, suddenly I'm on stage with Bad Bunny, and the edible is working," said Butler. "It was wild. So it's like my brain is in two movies. One is like, 'Benito and I had lunch earlier in the day, I'm just like, so proud of him,'" he added. "I'm watching him, going like, 'Oh my God, look how much you mean to everyone here.' I'm like, falling in love with Puerto Rican culture and the dancing, and everybody is so sexy and amazing," he continued. "And then the other part of me is like, 'Don't dance, because you'll take attention away from him. This is his moment.'" As per PEOPLE, Butler, in the viral clip, can be seen swaying his hips with his arms crossed. He explained that every time he uncrossed his arms, he felt like he was drawing too much attention. The actor added that he wanted to "hide," however, the music was "so good" that it led him to do some more dancing. "I ended up just like swaying my hips while crossing my arms," said Butler. "For whatever reason, every time I uncrossed my arms, I felt like I was drawing attention to myself. So I was like, 'This is okay,'" he later added while describing his dance moves. His upcoming project, 'Caught Stealing' is set to release in theatres on August 29. (ANI)

Kendra Hilty of ‘I fell in love with my psychiatrist' TikTok saga breaks silence on ‘nonstop bullying', threats
Kendra Hilty took TikTok by storm when she started sharing her 'I fell in love with my psychiatrist' series, where she talked about developing feelings for her doctor, claiming that the medical professional manipulated her. Initially, her posts struck a chord with people, who expressed sympathy. However, the reactions shifted when she introduced her new therapist - a ChatGPT model called 'Henry'. In a recent interview, she opened up about facing hate and receiving "violent" threats due to her content. Kendra Hilty's videos on TikTok, which are part of the series 'I fell in love with my psychiatrist,' have taken social media by storm. (TikTok/@kendrahilty) 'I knew that people were going to say it happened to them, too,' Hilty told People in an interview. 'I didn't know that people were immediately going to start also being negative,' she added. Hilty claimed that the thing that came soon after her being viral was 'nonstop bullying'. She alleged that she received comments where people told her to 'kill herself" or said the world was better off 'without her.' She continued that this has also affected her personal life, as there are people around her who are 'pulling away because they feel afraid' that they, too, will get tangled up in these online threats. It's not all negative: Hilty said that despite receiving severe backlash and criticism, some thanked her for sharing her story. 'To everyone from the outside looking in, it just seems like I am talking into an echo chamber,' said Hilty, adding, 'But the reality is that people are telling me that they appreciate me and that they believe me and that they are grateful for my courageousness of sharing my story.' 'There are people that I haven't heard from in years who are reaching out and asking to support me,' she continued. 'It's made it worth it to be the laughing stock of the internet.' What's next for Kendra Hilty? Though her series on TikTok is ongoing, she has decided to cash in on her newfound fame and joined TikTok's Creator Fund. On being asked how she would feel if her content was turned into a TV show or film, she said, 'If a producer came to me and said, 'I want to invite you to help us make a movie or a television series about this,' I'd say yes, as long as it was something that valued and recognized me.' About the 'I fell in love with my psychiatrist' series: Using this title, Hilty started sharing videos where she claimed that she went to the psychiatrist to seek treatment for ADHD. Eventually, she developed feelings for the person and shared about it openly. The TikTok user alleged that the psychiatrist failed to maintain appropriate professional boundaries. In one of her unhinged and highly controversial videos, the 36-year-old said she had stopped going to the psychiatrist and selected ChatGPT as her therapist, which sparked concerns among some social media users.
