SZA tells Nicki Minaj to 'bark at the wall' after she branded her a 'dead dog'
The beef between the music stars began after Nicki took aim at SZA's manager, Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE) president Terrence 'Punch' Henderson, with jibes such as 'Tiny D*** Executive".
Nicki then went on a rampage accusing SZA of bullying huge stars such as Beyonce, Rihanna and herself, re-posting alleged old tweets SZA made about them.
One read: "Beyonce lookin more and more like madonna every day! Coulda swore she was black at one point... #justsayin (sic)"
Referring to the resurfaced posts, Nicki wrote on X: "Me after I suck some good zik. Guarantee you wouldn't fight a man. We have every tweet of your incessant bullying, lying, and more.
"Your name was added to that s*** list s****y drawers.
"Same thing that make you laugh make you…s***."
Kill Bill star SZA had posted the following around the same time, but later claimed it was not aimed at Nicki, writing: "Mercury retrograde .. don't take the bait lol silly goose."
Nicki did think it was about her and proceeded to call SZA a "dead dog".
The Starships hitmaker also once again called for justice for Roc Nation CEO Desiree Perez' daughter, Demoree Hadley, who accused her mom of wrongfully having her admitted to a mental health facility.
She wrote: 'Go draw your freckles back on bookie #JusticeForDemoree #DepositionPerez Liar liar pants on fire. Sounding like a fkng dead dog.'
Nicki has been campaigning against Perez - who was pardoned by President Donald Trump in 2021, after being arrested for conspiracy to distribute narcotics - for some time now.
After being trolled by Nicki's fans - who are known as Barbz - SZA pointed out her successes and penned about her joint Grand National Tour with Kendrick Lamar: "I get bullied by millions online every day then step my a** out onna packed stadium tour where ppl show me REAL love . IN REAL LIFE . My parents are healthy and I'm the most successful I ever been . GET SOME F****** PERSPECTIVE n BARK AT THE WALL !!! (sic)"

Uma Thurman reveals the one reason she doesn't want to force her children to obey her
Uma Thurman does not want to force her children to obey her. The Kill Bill actress is a mother to three children: Maya, 26, and Levon, 23, from her marriage to Ethan Hawke, and Luna, 13, whose father is the financier Arpad 'Arki' Busson. Opening up about her busy life juggling her career and motherhood, Uma told The Sunday Times about her clear view on discipline when it comes to her kids: 'You don't want to make a girl be obedient. It's not in her best interests.'' She made the comments during a Zoom interview from her rural New York home. Uma also spoke warmly about the joys of her childrem's spirited independence, adding" 'It's kind of wonderful that they know the rules and don't always listen.' She added she reflects on her own youth when it comes to raising her family, adding: 'As a mother, the freedoms I was given as a teenage girl are mind-boggling. 'I mean, it's unimaginable. Those were different times.' Uma described her teenage years as marked by independence and self-reliance during her interview with The Sunday Times, By 15, she was earning money, navigating New York alone, and attending auditions with 'just a Filofax and a quarter in case I got lost and needed to call someone', she revealed. Her upbringing had encouraged autonomy – as her parents, Robert Thurman and Nena von Schlebrügge, were independent figures who allowed her to follow her path without restraint. She said: 'Both my parents did the same sort of thing when they were young. They were very independent. So I think there was a certain amount of being raised to be independent.' Uma shared her approach to parenting her own children, particularly when it comes to giving her eldest daughter, Maya, advice about her blossoming acting career. She said: 'Oh, she knows what she's doing. She went to Juilliard, thank God. She actually finished high school. 'And what I did learn (about mothering) is that nobody listens. So it's really about being there for them rather than telling them what to do.' She also spoke about allowing Maya freedom with her style, laughing her daughter has 'ransacked' her iconic 1990s wardrobe, including the very first Prada dress she wore to the Oscars. With her youngest now a teenager, Thurman described entering what she calls the 'sunset period' of motherhood. She added: 'I'm starting to think about what comes next, when I don't have to invest so much energy in shopping and driving and emailing teachers and all the things we do.'

Uma Thurman opens up about intense physical preparation she underwent for Kill Bill movies
Uma Thurman has opened up about the intense physical preparation she underwent for the Kill Bill movies. The 55-year-old actress, renowned for her iconic role as The Bride in Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill Vol 1 and Vol 2, discussed her martial arts training during an interview about her new project, The Old Guard 2. Revealing her return to action films this year came without time for full training, Uma told The Sunday Times: 'Fortunately I had put in hundreds of hours learning how to hold a sword (for Kill Bill 1 and 2),' she said. In her new action film, a sequel to the 2020 Netflix action hit, Uma plays Discord, a 5,000-year-old immortal warrior who engages in an epic sword fight opposite Charlize Theron's character, Andromache, near a secret nuclear facility. Uma added about her Kill Bill muscle memory coming in handy during the shoot: 'You may not be limber and strong. 'But if your brain has learnt how to memorise sequences of movements, you can get back in that zone.' For Kill Bill, Uma trained for eight hours a day across three months in preparation for the role. That experience, she said, proved invaluable when returning to the genre. Her character in The Old Guard 2 marks her first sword-wielding performance since Quentin Tarantino's films, and it has been more than two decades since she last performed choreographed combat on screen. Uma's new film is directed by Victoria Mahoney and follows a group of age-old warriors with supernatural powers who fight to protect humanity. The original, directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood, was praised for its blend of grounded drama and stylised violence. Speaking about the appeal of The Old Guard, Uma said: 'I thought that first movie was really unusual, a superb female-led action film that had depth, drama and really beautiful, naturalistic acting.' She also credited her co-star and producer Charlize Theron, 48, as a major draw for signing on. Uma added: 'Charlize is a miraculous performer, a very powerful individual and as charismatic in person as on screen. 'And I liked the idea of playing a supporting role to another actress who I thought had done really significant work in the drama/action field.' Charlize, who also produced both instalments of The Old Guard, told The Sunday Times as part of its feature on Uma: 'I have always admired Uma from afar. From Dangerous Liaisons to Kill Bill, her work is a masterclass in finding the micro in characters. 'In moments I got so lost watching her in scenes we had together that I had to remind myself I was in the scene with her. She's that captivating.'

Michael Madsen feared to have been worth as little as $400,000 at time of death
Michael Madsen may have been worth as little as $400,000 at the time of his death. The actor's finances are in the spotlight after a string of celebrity net worth sites updated their estimates of how much cash he had put away in the wake of his death aged 67 at his Malibu home on 3 July. Despite earning recognition for his roles in Quentin Tarantino films and more than 300 acting credits, Michael's net worth is said to be nowhere near what fans thought, with the sites estimating it was anywhere between $400,000 and $4 million. Legal website Trust Counsel have backed up the low estimates of his final worth by publishing an article headlined: 'Michael Madsen's Financials at Death Prove that Fame Doesn't Always Equal Wealth'. It reported: 'When someone as famous and lauded in the industry as Madsen passes, it's easy to believe that they pass with some sort of mass lump sum of wealth, that will now pass onto their loved ones. 'Unfortunately, that isn't always the case, and it isn't here: Madsen actually struggled to build financial stability not just throughout his lifetime, but even in his final days, and looking into his checkered financial past is a huge lesson on what it really means to leave a legacy.' Michael's life was blighted by financial troubles, which began as early as 2009 when he filed for bankruptcy, citing debts including $1 million and $25,000. This was just two years after he sold a Malibu home, reportedly netting nearly $8 million. Following this, Michael repeatedly appeared on California's list of top tax delinquents, owing $640,000 to the IRS before settling the debt. Legal issues and housing instability marked his later years. In 2022, Michael was arrested for trespassing on a property from which he had been evicted but remained due to a COVID-era eviction moratorium. In his final days, a source told The Sun Michael was 'scared of losing the house again' and was attempting to sell old cars and take on multiple projects to recover financially. He had been involved in 18 unreleased projects, seeking steady work and income. Michael's personal life was also turbulent. The suicide of his son Hudson in 2022 triggered legal battles and false domestic violence accusations. He spent time in rehab, which contributed to his ongoing financial instability. According to a death certificate published by TMZ, the Kill Bill and Reservoir Dogs star died of cardiac arrest caused by cardiomyopathy, coronary artery disease, and chronic alcoholism. The certificate also noted thromboembolic disease.
