S.F.'s new Pride festival faces backlash over stance on war in Gaza
Two Bay Area artists have pulled out of SoSF, because of organizers' stance on the war in Gaza, and are instead planning their own competing Pride event. DJ Adam Kraft, founder of the event company Fake and Gay, and drag queen Nicki Jizz, who created the 'Reparations' drag show, opted to part ways with the outdoor music event scheduled for June 28 shortly after Oakland native Kehlani decided to drop off the lineup as SoSF's headliner last week. 'SoSF made a statement regarding Kehlani's stance and language being pro-Palestine, which resulted in a wave of comments asking them to clarify exactly what issues they had with Kehlani's position and language,' Kraft told the Chronicle on Monday, June 9. 'We, along with the majority of our community, stand with the Palestinian people, and felt that message should not be obfuscated.' The Chronicle has reached out to SoSF organizers for comment. The since-deleted statement by SoSF was posted to social media in May shortly after Kehlani faced concert cancellations by Cornell University and Central Park's SummerStage Pride concert over what the Ivy League deemed 'antisemitic, anti-Israel sentiments.' As first reported by the Standard, the statement noted that the festival's team 'fundamentally disagree' with Kehlani's language, and went on to explain they were seeking to 'engage with her team' instead of canceling her San Francisco appearance. A joint statement by Kehlani and the festival was also included in an effort to smooth over any new criticism. 'No person should ever fall casualty of a war they did not choose and do not support,' the statement read. 'This sentiment extends to Jewish people, the same way it extends to Palestinian people, the same way it extends to all people.' In April, Kehlani responded to her Cornell concert cancellation with an Instagram video clarifying that she is 'anti-genocide' and 'anti the actions of the Israeli government.' But she has continued to be criticized for her views. The singer has frequently used her platform to voice her opposition to Israel and Zionism, and included the phrase 'long live the intifada' in the music video for her 2024 song 'Next 2 U.' The phrase translates to 'uprising' or 'resistance' in Arabic, but is also considered by some as a call for violence against Jews. While announcing Kehlani severed ties with the event on Instagram, SoSF organizers revealed that the one-day celebration would no longer be at Pier 80's warehouse. Instead, it's set to take place as a block party across the street at 900 Marin St. That post has since been deleted, though this information is still on the event's website. It is still unclear why Kehlani, who identifies as a lesbian and uses she/they pronouns, withdrew from SoSF. But Kraft said that it did influence his and Nicki Jizz's plans to cancel their appearances. 'We pulled out of SoSF because we felt like our and our community's voices were not being heard or considered and for a Pride event, especially in this moment under the current administration, uplifting queer voices should be of the utmost importance,' Kraft said. 'I just couldn't bring myself to be a part of an event which started to feel more and more exploitative of pink dollars during such a crucial time.' 'This was an easy decision to make to stand up for what's right,' Nicki Jizz added. Looking ahead, Kraft and Nicki Jizz are determined to pull together their own Pride weekend event. 'We would love to be able to provide an alternative space where people feel more comfortable and excited to attend, and know that their money is not going to a cause or entity that is actively in opposition to their own views,' Kraft said. 'It is super last minute to attempt to do something, but we are trying our best.' Both Kraft and Nicki Jizz noted that the SoSF organizers they have worked with throughout the process have been 'understanding' and 'supportive.' But Kraft pointed out 'it feels like mixed messaging,' as the way in which organizers have continued to promote the event doesn't align with their behavior behind the scenes. One example he cited is that when SoSF shared its new flyer, sans Kehlani, they made no mention of his or Nicki Jizz's departure. 'To me that speaks volumes,' Kraft said. 'They were only using us for our local audience reach and did not value us as contributors to the event.'

'Call Her Daddy' host Alex Cooper accuses former soccer coach of sexual harassment
Alex Cooper, host of the popular podcast "Call Her Daddy," has accused her former Boston University soccer coach, Nancy Feldman, of uncomfortable encounters that Cooper characterizes as sexual harassment. Cooper made the allegation in her new Hulu documentary "Call Her Alex," which premiered on Sunday at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City. Cooper, who played collegiate soccer at Boston University, said in the documentary that the alleged harassment began during her sophomore year, when she said Feldman, "really starting to fixate on me, way more than any other teammate of mine, and it was confusing." "[It] was all based in her wanting to know who I was dating, her making comments about my body and her always wanting to be alone with me," Cooper alleged in the documentary. She claimed Feldman placed a hand on her thigh and asked about her sex life. "It was this psychotic game of, 'You want to play? Tell me about your sex life,'" Cooper said, adding that Feldman would tell her, "I have to drive you to your night class. Get in the car with me alone." "I felt so deeply uncomfortable," she said. In the documentary, Cooper said she didn't feel she could come forward at the time because she was on a full-tuition scholarship. After sharing the allegations with her parents, Cooper said they contacted lawyers, but were advised the case could drag on for years. Despite a meeting, she said the Boston University athletics officials failed to act. Feldman was not fired, though she later retired in 2022. While Cooper chose not to play soccer her senior year, she retained her scholarship. She returned to Boston University while filming the documentary and broke down in tears upon seeing the field, reflecting on all that she had lost. "When I look back at that time in my life, I was scared, hopeless," Cooper said in the documentary. "I had no resources and no options, and the minute I left that campus, I was so determined to find a way where no one could ever silence me again." ABC News has reached out to Feldman and representatives from Boston University for comment but has not yet received a response.

Marvel Granted Request to Be Removed from Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni's Legal Drama, Following Dismissal of Baldoni's $400 Million Lawsuit
On June 9, the judge overseeing Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni's legal battle granted Marvel Entertainment LLC's request to quash a subpoena issued by Baldoni's lawyers The actor-director's legal team previously sent a litigation hold letter to Marvel, demanding that it keep documents that mention Baldoni for potential use in his ongoing fight with Blake Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds, who worked on the Marvel movie Deadpool & Wolverine Earlier on June 9, the same judge dismissed Baldoni's $400 million lawsuit against Lively, Reynolds, and their publicist, making Baldoni's subpoena to Marvel "no longer relevant" Marvel's request to be removed from the ongoing legal battle between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni has been granted, according to court documents obtained by PEOPLE. On Monday, June 9, U.S. District Court judge Lewis J. Liman granted Marvel Entertainment, LLC's request for a court order to 'quash the subpoena issued to Marvel from [Baldoni's] Wayfarer Parties and for a protective order prohibiting the disclosure of Marvel's confidential documents.' Marvel Entertainment, LLC first submitted the letter to Judge Liman in the Southern District of New York on April 25. Baldoni's legal team had requested to access communications concerning the Nicepool character introduced in Deadpool & Wolverine, written by and starring Lively's husband Ryan Reynolds. The request was made in an attempt to argue the character was used to "bully" Baldoni, as the It Ends with Us director-actor's legal battle responding to costar Lively's sexual harassment and retaliation claims advanced. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human-interest stories. Baldoni's lawyers sent Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige and Walt Disney Company CEO Bob Iger the litigation hold letter on Jan. 7, demanding that they hold onto documents that mention Baldoni for potential use in court. Baldoni's legal team was looking for documents "relating to or reflecting a deliberate attempt to mock, harass, ridicule, intimidate or bully" the Jane the Virgin alum "through the character of Nicepool," among other subjects. Baldoni denied Lively's allegations and countersued the actress, 37, Reynolds, 48, the couple's publicist Leslie Sloane and Sloane's PR firm Vision PR, Inc., for $400 million, alleging defamation, civil extortion and more. Earlier Monday, Judge Liman dismissed Baldoni's $400 million countersuit (but said he can still amend some claims by June 23 if he wishes to proceed). Because of the dismissal, "the information sought [from Marvel] is no longer relevant to a claim or defense in this action," Liman wrote. Baldoni's attorney Bryan Freedman did not respond to PEOPLE's request for comment on Monday. Baldoni's suit was in response to Lively's lawsuit over his alleged harassment. The actress still seeks unspecified triple and punitive damages. A trial date for their case, Lively v. Wayfarer Studios et al., has been set for March 2026. Read the original article on People
