Justin Timberlake ‘pushed through for months before' Lyme disease diagnosis, Jessica Biel ‘was incredibly supportive'
Singer and actor Justin Timberlake, who recently opened up about his Lyme disease diagnosis, was "pushing through for months before finally getting answers". His wife Jessica Biel was "incredibly supportive" of him, People reported, citing their family source. Justin talked about his Lyme disease diagnosis on social media on July 31. Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel are parents to two sons. Justin Timberlake was quietly dealing with health issues As per the report, the news has brought Justin "clarity". "He's not 20 anymore. But when his symptoms worsened, he realised something deeper was going on. He pushed through for months before finally getting answers. The Lyme disease diagnosis brought clarity to a series of unexplained issues that he's been quietly dealing with," People's source said. According to the source, Jessica "felt like something was off" with Justin's health. She "encouraged him to get checked out." Jessica 'could tell that he wasn't himself. She's incredibly supportive', the source added. Justin's focus is now health and family Justin will now focus on his treatment and recovery. "He's taking it seriously. The plan is to rest, spend time with Jess and the kids and do everything he can to heal. He loved touring and being back onstage, but he's also relieved it's over. Now he can focus on his health," added the source. He recently concluded his two-year Forget Tomorrow World Tour, an international run in support of his 2024 studio album, Everything I Thought It Was. Justin and Jessica are parents to sons Silas, 10, and Phineas, 5. What Justin said about his health recently Justin announced his diagnosis in an Instagram post, informing fans that he wanted to "shed some light on what I've been up against behind the scenes". A part of his note read, "I've been battling some health issues, and was diagnosed with Lyme disease, which I don't say so you feel bad for me, but to shed some light on what I've been up against behind the scenes. If you've experienced this disease or know someone who has — then you're aware: living with this can be relentlessly debilitating, both mentally and physically." "When I first got the diagnosis, I was shocked for sure. But, at least I could understand why I would be onstage and in a massive amount of nerve pain or, just feeling crazy fatigue or sickness. I was faced with a personal decision. Stop touring? Or, keep going and figure it out. I decided the joy that performing brings me far outweighs the fleeting stress my body was feeling. I'm so glad I kept going," he added. Justin had previously cancelled or postponed shows on his tour due to an ongoing back injury, bronchitis and laryngitis, and an ankle injury. About Justin's career Over the years, Justin released several albums, including Justified, FutureSex/LoveSounds, The 20/20 Experience, The 20/20 Experience – 2 of 2, and Man of the Woods (2018).

Jenna Ortega on her Wednesday dance going viral globally: It was unexpected
Jenna Ortega-starrer supernatural dark comedy series Wednesday released in 2022 and immediately became a global phenomenon. As the series gears up for the release of its second season, the actor exclusively tells us how the success of the show has impacted her life. Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams As much love as the show got, Jenna Ortega's special 'Wednesday dance' from season one also got viral. Ask her about that global craze and she says, 'It's an honour and it was very unexpected. Oftentimes, you make these jobs and you never know what will come of them, or if anyone will watch them. So, the reception and excitement for what we worked on and accomplished here in season one is just something that I'm very grateful for and it still surprises me.' Watch the full interview here: The global success of the Netflix show Wednesday has also come with a lot of limelight. How is she handling being under the spotlight? 'It's been a pretty tremendous impact and an unexpected one. I have just been grateful and honored. It's such a pleasure as you hope that you're able to connect with people when you do these things and maybe it matters to someone, and it does,' Jenna responds. The actor adds, 'In my personal life, yes, it's been a great change and one that takes a lot of getting accustomed to, but I also think it's good to not fully succumb to that. So, it's interesting finding the balance, but ultimately I just kind of try to not put that pressure on the show and go about my daily life the way that suits me best. It's a learning curve for sure, but it's been a great education.' Based on the character Wednesday Addams by Charles Addams, the show saw Jenna take up the titular role of a morbid and emotionally reserved child that is fascinated by the macabre, and solves a murder at her school. The series also highlights many socially relevant issues under the garb of satire. Does she see its impact in real life too? 'I'm not sure that I've seen its general impact, but for me, in my personal life, I feel like that I kind of have the same outlook or similar stances on things. I am a very sarcastic and nihilistic person too,' she responds. Jenna adds that she does see Wednesday become a part of the pop culture: 'In general audiences, it's funny seeing girls who were once very colourful and expressive, try on eyeliner for the first time or try not to smile. I've seen people at birthday parties not breaking character and being very Wednesday. So, I see it like that.'

After Sydney Sweeney's bath soap drama she gets a digital snan in Prayagraj river and it is holy hilarious
After months of being stuck in the trolls' bathtub, from facing heat over her American Eagle denim ads to getting dragged for selling luxury bath water soap, Sydney Sweeney has finally received the most unexpected cleansing ritual of all: a digital snan at the sacred Sangam in Prayagraj. Sydney Sweeney gets a holy cleanse after bath soap and denim backlash Yes, you read that right. Sweeney, who was just recently internet-roasted over her bizarre $95 'bath soap' launch, has now been given a spiritual reset by none other than Deepak Goel, the now-famous man behind India's 'digital snan' trend. What even is a digital snan and why is Sydney Sweeney in it? The digital snan, a weirdly viral ritual that kicked off during the Maha Kumbh, involves dipping photos of people into the holy river as a symbolic cleansing. No ticket, no visa, just pure vibes and printed paper. In a now-viral video posted on Instagram, Goel can be seen holding up a printed photo of Sydney Sweeney, dramatically announcing that 'she needs no introduction,' before dipping her picture into the waters of Sangam for a symbolic holy bath. The video is part deadpan, part dramatic cinema. Social media cannot stop laughing or questioning reality The clip has sparked waves of amusement online. One user sarcastically joked that Sydney's snan arrived before GTA VI. Another admitted they were 'terrified' by how seriously Goel takes his job. Someone else said, 'I have seen enough.' Goel, by the way, is already known for performing 'digital snans' on behalf of ISB Hyderabad students for their placements. Yes, this man is booked and blessed. The bath water-to-holy water arc we never expected Whether it is satire, spirituality or social media chaos, Sydney Sweeney's journey from luxury soaps to sacred dips is definitely a storyline no one had on their 2025 bingo card. From overpriced bath water to holy river water looks like the internet has decided she needed a cleanse, and delivered.
