"Anyone who had any knowledge of this situation will be subpoenaed, regardless of their celebrity status,' as quoted in a report by SheKnows.
Taylor Swift's boyfriend,

, recently unfollowed Blake Lively's husband, Ryan Reynolds, which reignited feud rumours, despite some sources claiming that they had patched things up.
According to Page Six, Kjersti Flaa stated on her Flaawsome Talk podcast, "I think it's weird that you don't show up at one of your friends' 30th birthday party." "She did attend that event the day before, so it's not that you don't want to be seen in public."
In her podcast, Flaa conjectured, "I think maybe Gigi Hadid didn't want Lively to show up because both she and her boyfriend, Bradley Cooper, are probably waiting to be subpoenaed."

Dutch beach beasts find a final resting place in a new exhibition
Dutch artist Theo Jansen is interviewed in front of his 'strandbeesten' or Beach Beasts, wind-powered creatures made from yellow plastic tubes, displayed during an exhibit in Delft, Netherlands, Thursday, June 5, 2025. (AP Photo/Peter Dejong) The famous wind-powered beach beasts have scuttled along the Dutch North Sea coast, into a swanky Miami art show and even onto "The Simpsons." Now. they have a final resting place in a Dutch city most famous for "Girl with a Pearl Earring" painter Johannes Vermeer and blue-painted pottery. The "bones" of Theo Jansen's "strandbeesten" - beach animals in Dutch - have taken over a former cable factory in Delft, the small city in the western Netherlands that Jansen has called home for decades. "During the years, there has been a sort of evolutionary history, you could say. And you could see these animals as sort of natural historical objects," the 77-year old artist told The Associated Press before the installation's opening. The Strandbeesten Mortuary, as the exhibition is called, follows the various versions of the mobile sculptures since 1990 when Jansen created the first one from plastic pipes and tape. As the animals evolved, Jansen incorporated plastic bottles, wooden planks, cloth and cardboard. The life and death cycle of these famous animals - formed mostly out of PVC pipes - has left behind an impressive fossil record, which is on display at the exhibition. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo Marloes Koster, who organized the exhibition for Delft's Prinsenhof Museum, said that Jansen's ultimate goal is to create a beast that will live forever. "He's not there yet, so these are the ones that didn't make it," she added. The museum is undergoing major renovations, so Koster and her colleagues have been putting together arts and culture events at alternative venues around the city while the building is shut. Born near the North Sea, Jansen grew up captivated by the wind that often hits the Dutch coastline. He harnessed it to allow his animals to "walk" along the beach. Every year, he creates a new strandbeest and, at the end of the summer, declares the animal dead. "All summer I do experiments, and in the fall I'm a little bit wiser (about) how these animals should survive in the future," Jansen said. Many of the visitors to the opening of the exhibition had followed Jansen's work for years and were keen to understand how the strandbeesten had changed over time. "You see a kind of development in the way he does things. So they start out very simple, and then it gets increasingly complicated. So they evolve," said Cor Nonhof, a Delft local who had come to see the exhibition with his wife. Even at the opening, Jansen was already keen to return to the beach to work on the latest evolution of his strandbeesten. "I cannot do anything else," Jansen said. "And I am very happy with that.

Serena Williams drawn into debate over husband Alexis Ohanian's comments post Grand Slam 2025
After witnessing one of the most grueling matches in recent Grand Slam history—the semifinal showdown between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner—Alexis Ohanian, entrepreneur and husband of tennis legend Serena Williams, offered a candid opinion on social media. His statement, seemingly simple, stirred a flurry of fan reactions and rekindled a long-standing debate in tennis: the relevance of the five-set format in men's matches. While many stood by the endurance and drama of the Alcaraz–Sinner match, Ohanian raised a different point—about tension, pacing, and viewer engagement. 'I think we're playing a completely different sport': Why did Ohanian's comments spark debate in the tennis world In a post that went viral within hours, Alexis Ohanian wrote: 'I first got into tennis because of the women's game. I fell in love with how every point mattered. Then I watched my first 5 set men's match and was confused why this diluted the tension — these early sets felt more like warm-ups than high stakes.' 'I understand the history of 5 sets in men's Grand Slam tennis — but from an entertainment standpoint, I prefer the format where every point matters more.' The timing of the post—just after Alcaraz defeated Sinner in a five-hour French Open battle—drew significant attention from fans and sports media. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Cardiologists: Losing a Hanging Tummy Comes Down To This 1 Thing Health Wellness Journal Learn more Undo While many praised Ohanian for highlighting the compact intensity of the women's three-set matches, others argued that the very endurance and momentum shifts of five-set tennis are what make men's Grand Slam clashes legendary. The topic also touched deeper issues. According to Wikipedia and other sources, the men's five-set format has long been seen as a benchmark for stamina and psychological resilience. On the other hand, critics argue that the women's game often delivers greater drama in a shorter span. Serena Williams herself, one of the greatest in the sport, once commented in a 2013 interview: 'I think we're playing a completely different sport. ' Ohanian, known for championing equal pay and investing in women's sports, likely intended to elevate the unique strengths of the women's format—not downplay the men's. However, as many fans saw it, the timing of his comments—coinciding with one of the most thrilling men's matches in recent memory—sparked misunderstanding. Ohanian's words tapped into more than just format preferences; they reignited a conversation about how we experience tennis. For some, the lengthy tension of five-set matches builds storylines and epic comebacks. For others, the condensed format of the women's game offers faster emotional payoffs. The truth may lie somewhere in between. Rather than choose one over the other, perhaps it's time tennis embraces the idea that greatness comes in many forms—whether it's decided in three sets or five. What's certain is that the sport, like its fans, thrives on passion—and debates like this keep it evolving.
