Diddy's lawyer slammed by judge for calling prosecutors a ‘six-pack of white women'
The judge overseeing Sean 'Diddy' Combs' sex trafficking trial ripped a member of his family's legal team Tuesday — after the lawyer griped on his podcast about the all-women team of prosecutors in the case.
'This is ridiculous,' Judge Arun Subramanian said during a behind-closed-doors dressing down of Mark Geragos, who represents Combs' mother and has been seen huddling with the embattled hip-mogul's lawyers, a court transcript shows.
Geragos drew the judge's ire for calling the all women prosecution team 'a six-pack of white women' on a recent episode of a podcast he hosts with TMZ founder Harvey Levin.

'I think referring to the prosecution in this case as a six-pack of white women is outrageous,' Subramanian told Geragos, according to the transcript obtained by The Post.
'This would not be tolerated in any court from any lawyer anywhere across the nation,' the jurist added to the veteran attorney.

Geragos has repped several celebrity clients over the years, including Michael Jackson and Hunter Biden.
He's not listed as a lawyer on Combs' case but revealed Tuesday that he's working for Combs' mother, Janice, in an undisclosed matter. He's been spotted observing the first two days of jury selection in a section of the Manhattan federal courtroom reserved for Combs' friends and family.
Geragos' daughter, Teny Geragos, is a member of Combs' defense team at the firm Agnifilo Intrater LLP.
The judge's lambasting of Mark Geragos Tuesday morning ended on a lighter note, with the jurist noting that he would be listening to future episodes of the podcast to make sure the attorney did not make similar further comments.

'I'm going to be watching and I'm going to be listening. All right? You have one more listener for your podcast,' the judge said.
'As long as you subscribe, I'm all for it,' Geragos replied.

Tense scene at Weinstein trial as alleged perv appears to have medical episode after accuser's defiant gesture
Harvey Weinstein's Manhattan sex crimes retrial took a dramatic turn Tuesday when the accused serial perv apparently suffered a medical episode — sparking a frenzy of court officers to tend to him. The bizarre moment came after a former actress who accused Weinstein, 73, of raping her defiantly stared down the disgraced Hollywood producer after leaving the witness stand and pointed a finger at her eye, demanding that he look at her. The startling 'look at me' gesture by Jessica Mann, 38, prompted Weinstein's high-powered defense attorney Arthur Aidala to argue for a mistrial to Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Curtis Farber. As Aidala contended that the trial should be tossed, Weinstein bizarrely made gurgling sounds — and two court officers quickly surrounded him. The wheelchair-bound Weinstein took a sip of water, bringing the brief episode to an end. Asked later if Weinstein had a medical episode, Aidala told The Post that the Miramax founder's already-poor health has been getting worse. 'The short answer is yes, but it was alleviated,' the attorney said. 'He's not doing well. The last two weeks there has been a marked difference in his physical appearance and his stamina. I don't know if its the cancer kicking in, but he's definitely suffering.' Mann's daring gesture came after she wrenchingly detailed to jurors, between sobs, an alleged rape by Weinstein at a Beverly Hills hotel. But the convicted sex pest could only shake his head in response, before he descended into gurgling. 'That's absolutely inappropriate behavior by her,' Aidala wailed to the judge. Prosecutors argued Mann's reaction didn't even come close to grounds for a mistrial — and Farber agreed, denying Aidala's bid. Mann later returned to the stand and continued to recount the alleged California hotel rape, which took place around the beginning of 2014, recounting for jurors how she had taken an hours-long shower afterward. 'I'm going to bury this so deep and I'm going to forget about this and move on with my life,' she said she told herself. Mann testified that she decided to 'keep going' to pursue her Hollywood dreams – and continued to have contact with the powerful Weinstein, which led to a consensual sexual relationship. She recounted that she faked orgasms to end uncomfortable sexual encounters with Weinstein. 'I'm not saying I performed her performance but I made noises,' she said, comparing her fake orgasms to that of Meg Ryan's character in an infamous scene from the 1989 romantic comedy 'When Harry Met Sally.' 'It was definitely not the best I ever had,' she added when Aidala asked if it was a lie. Mann's first day of testimony Monday saw her tearfully detail another alleged rape by Weinstein in a Midtown hotel. She testified that after the attack, she found an erection-inducing drug needle apparently used by Weinstein in a hotel room's garbage can with a puzzling label. 'I found on Google that it basically meant 'dead penis,' and you inject it and it can only be used a certain amount of times back to back over a certain time,' she told jurors. Weinstein is only charged in the Midtown alleged rape. He has pleaded not guilty to charges in his sex crimes retrial. Weinstein in 2022 was found guilty of one count of rape and two counts of sexual assault at a Los Angeles trial. He has appealed the conviction.

Taylor Swift's Safety in Question After Chilling Encounter With Stalker
Taylor Swift's Safety in Question After Chilling Encounter With Stalker originally appeared on Athlon Sports. While pop star Taylor Swift has had plenty to celebrate over the last week after announcing she bought back the master recordings of her first six studio albums, she's also had some difficulties too. Swift, who's dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, has spent the bulk of the last four months out of the public eye with her NFL star love interest traveling overseas and taking several offseason vacations together. But it wasn't that long ago that the couple was dealing with a worrying security threat after Kelce's $6 million Leawood, Kansas, home was broken into last year. The incident reportedly left the couple on 'high alert' given Swift's prior history with security issues when she had to cancel several shows during her 'Eras Tour' last year in Austria after it was discovered she was the alleged target of a planned terrorist attack. And now, according to a report from TMZ, Swift has more security issues to worry about after she had multiple chilling run-ins with a stalker recently that prompted her to file a restraining order on Friday. According to documents obtained by TMZ, Swift claims ex-convict Brian Jason Wagner, who's reportedly been harassing her for years, showed up at her house uninvited in May requesting to see her. Wagner has also allegedly changed the address on his driver's license to her home in Los Angeles, and he's even falsely claimed Swift is the mother of his child. Swift asked the court to order Wagner to stay at least 100 yards away from her, her residence, her workplace, and her car. 'Taylor claims Wagner used concerning and threatening language in the communications and tried to divert mail from her residence,' TMZ reported. 'Taylor says Wagner previously showed up to her home at least 3 times in July 2024 ... including one alleged visit where he was allegedly carrying a glass bottle 'that could have been used as a weapon.'' The news prompted several of Swift's fans to hit social media to express their concern over her safety. "I am glad she has Travis to protect her when they are together," one fan wrote. "The amount of potentially harmful weirdos she has in her orbit is scary," another added. "Every single person who stalks her jet, his friends, has GCs passing details on her whereabouts, and feels entitled to her personal all contribute to this sort of thing. And I hope karma finds you swiftly," a third fan exclaimed. "This is exactly why people need to stop posts pictures of Taylor without her knowledge or consent and giving away her location Taylor has all sorts of crazy people after her," one user scoffed. "This is why we don't share her location in real time," remarked another user. Fortunately for Swift, she's spent most of her time this offseason with Kelce, and she's been in Kansas City with him recently as he prepares for the upcoming NFL season. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 9, 2025, where it first appeared.

Honest mom is ‘pissing off a lot of men' by explaining why many women have a low sex drive
She's got the receipts — and the rage. A fed-up mom is going viral after revealing the not-so-sexy equation behind her nonexistent libido, or sex drive — and some men are fuming. '(Hours of Sleep + Number of Real Meals Eaten While Seated) x Partner Support ÷ Number of Annoying Comments He Made — Number of Times Touched by Children = Mom Libido,' Houston-based mom-of-two Maddie Muhs calculated in a now-viral Instagram video, uploaded last month. Advertisement And the answer? 'Not an f—ing chance,' she concluded, after walking through a sample calculation that included eight hours of sleep, three full meals, helpful husband duties — and about a thousand toddler touches. Advertisement Muhs, a talent agent and mom of two toddlers, says her husband had 'no notes' on the formula — though he warned she'd 'piss off a lot of men.' 'And I did,' she told in a recent interview. In fact, her post turned into a full-blown battle, with some people cheering in the comment section: 'Yes!!! I just sent this to my husband!' Some joked, 'We gotta find a way to add in how long the husband takes to poop.' Advertisement 'Women in stem,' wrote someone else. Others were furious and branded the mom 'a trap.' 'Don't get married and have kids if you refuse to meet your husband's needs. Definition of a trap right there. No love in your relationship,' one commented. Another whined: 'Women using this as an excuse to not have sex with their husband, but also don't want their husband having sex with anyone else.' Advertisement Muhs, who says post-baby pressure isn't just about snapping back into pre-baby jeans — but into bed — pointed out to the outlet that 'male hormones are wired one way — it's always sex, sex, sex.' But for moms? Hormones, exhaustion and clingy kids are part of the 'touched out' cocktail. One mom's viral libido formula is leaving some men on Instagram steamed — and not in a sexy way. Koegelenberg Coop/ – As The Post previously reported, Aussie sex therapist Aleks Trkuljia says libido isn't one-size-fits-all — and comparing yours to someone else's is a losing game. Instead, she urges folks to watch for shifts in their own desire or a drop in intimacy compared to what used to be the norm — and communicate their needs to their partner. If you're ever trying to reignite a spark, it's also best to figure out what snuffed it out to begin with. 'If you're in a context where the quality of your relationship is high and there's a sense of physical, spiritual and psychological safety, then you're likely to be more open to a sense of desire and libido,' she explained to Apart from self-discovery and being open with your beau about your needs, there also might be another solution regarding a decrease in libido — scheduling your romps. Advertisement As The Post previously reported, Aussie sex therapist Aleks Trkuljia says libido isn't one-size-fits-all — so stop comparing yours to everyone else's. It's a no-win game. Antonioguillem – As The Post previously dished, penciling in hanky-panky a few times a week has been the secret sauce keeping one Upper West Side couple going strong for 31 years. 'It's made our relationship one million times better,' Jay Lyons, an Emmy-winning director and producer, said. He and his wife Sofia, now in their early 50s, started calendar sex not long after saying 'I do' and popping out two kids in the '90s. Advertisement They're part of the 14% of couples who swear by sultry scheduled sessions, according to The Knot. Even celebs are on the clock — Jenna Bush Hager and Amy Schumer both admit to timing their trysts, while Nick and Vanessa Lachey lock in 'hump day' for exactly that. Turns out, the real secret to keeping the flame alive might just be setting an alarm for it.
