When her co-stars pressed her about the size of her glutes, Pippen denied having surgery done on them.
"I literally work out seven days a week. If I show you my photos from five years ago, I was less than 100 pounds. I'm 140 pounds now, so yea, my legs look thicker than they were, my arms look thicker than [they were]. My whole body has changed ... my body's tight because I work out."

During an explosive conversation in the season 7 premiere, Pippen confronted Hochstein for speaking with Jordan at an event.

Trump to visit Kennedy Center to announce 2025 honorees and promote major changes to the venue
U.S. President Donald Trump will visit the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts on Wednesday to unveil its 2025 honorees for artistic excellence and tout a major renovation as lawmakers push to rename the venue for the Republican president. In a post on his Truth Social platform on Tuesday, Trump teased the announcement, saying, 'GREAT Nominees for the TRUMP/KENNEDY CENTER, whoops, I mean, KENNEDY CENTER, AWARDS.' Trump also teased a physical overhaul of the center in Washington, D.C., saying he planned to restore it to the 'absolutely top level of luxury, glamour, and entertainment.' No details were immediately available. Since returning to power in January, Trump has sought to put his stamp on American culture and institutions to align them closer with his political and personal preferences. His administration has ordered a review of some Smithsonian museums and exhibitions to 'remove divisive or partisan narratives.' At the White House, Trump has added gold leaf to the Oval Office, paved over the Rose Garden, and embarked on plans for a $200-million ballroom. Trump did not attend events at the Kennedy Center during his first term but has taken a keen interest in it during his second, vowing to overhaul an institution he and his 'Make America Great Again' supporters view as too liberal. He pushed out its chairman in February and took on the role himself, fired its longtime president, and installed his former ambassador to Germany, Richard Grenell, as interim president. In a post on X, the Kennedy Center said its building — which opened in September 1971 — would undergo renovations thanks to Trump's advocacy aimed at restoring its 'prestige and grandeur.' The arts facility also hinted at the 2025 winners: 'A country music icon, an Englishman, a New York City Rock band, a dance Queen and a multi-billion dollar Actor walk into the Kennedy Center Opera House….' Republicans recently voted as part of a sweeping tax cut and spending bill to earmark $257 million for the building's renovation, conditional on the opera house being named after first lady Melania Trump. Republican Representative Bob Onder in July introduced a bill that would rename the modernist building the Donald J. Trump Center for the Performing Arts. Trump last visited the Kennedy Center in June for a performance of 'Les Miserables,' where he and his wife were met with a loud mix of boos and cheers. Ticket and subscription sales have fallen since Trump's conservative takeover of the venue, and some shows, including the hit 'Hamilton,' have canceled their engagements. Under his leadership, the center has sought to add conservative-leaning programming, including a show that Grenell has described as a celebration of the birth of Christ.

New Line in Early Talks for WEAPONS Prequel Film — GeekTyrant
It looks like Weapons might be getting a bloody backstory. New Line is in early talks for a prequel to Zach Cregger's latest horror hit, fresh off its killer opening weekend. While plot details are being kept under wraps, the project reportedly came from a pitch by one of Cregger's writer friends, an idea he 'really sparked to' before it even reached New Line's Richard Brener or Warner Bros. chairperson Mike De Luca. Cregger's involvement in the prequel remains unclear, but I imagine that if it's a prequel, it will deal with the the crazy-ass Aunt Gladys. Right now, Cregger's plate is more than full, with two upcoming films already in the works with a Resident Evil adaptation for Sony, followed by an original project titled Flood . Weapons is a chilling mystery about 17 third-graders who vanish from their homes at exactly 2:17 a.m., leaving the town of Maybrook, Pennsylvania in shock and looking for answers. Julia Garner stars as Justine Gandy, the teacher who loses her class, alongside Josh Brolin as a desperate father and Alden Ehrenreich as a local cop. The cast also includes Austin Abrams, Benedict Wong, Amy Madigan, and Cary Christopher. Weapons has proven both a critical and commercial hit. It topped the box office its opening weekend with around $42.5 million domestically and has now pulled in over $81 million worldwide. Whether Cregger will have time to return to Maybrook's eerie world for the prequel remains to be seen, but if the idea has him this intrigued, horror fans should keep an eye out because there's a good chance the nightmare isn't over yet.

Thank you, ‘Sex and the City,' for being part of our story
As far as television show relationships go, 'Sex and the City' was the one I didn't see coming. It didn't sweep me off my feet like the 'Grey's Anatomy' pilot did. It didn't give me five years of bliss before slowly losing its spark like 'Supernatural.' It was, in many ways, the friend I slowly fell for. The show debuted in 1998, when I was too young to be watching it and my older sister was way too cool to care. I was a kid, so obviously didn't see myself in any of the women at the time, but I appreciated being privy to the adult conversations. Did they all talk and think like this? Weird! Growing up along the border in Texas, Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha were not women I knew in real life and not women I ever imagined myself being. But even as a preteen, I knew they were fabulous, funny and a good time. I didn't need them to be more than that — until I did. Back in 2023, I decided to take on my third rewatch of the original series ahead of the second season of spinoff series 'And Just Like That,' which this week will air its finale and possibly mark the conclusion of the universe (but nothing ever really ends these days, does it?). I hadn't seen the show from the beginning since my early 20s, when I was sexless in the city, having moved to New York with goals, ambitions and living up to the nickname bestowed upon me by my sisters after years of prudishness – Sister Mary Clarence. This time, I was one month postpartum and having a hard time. Because the elusive perfect latch was not part of my motherhood story, I was exclusively pumping and needed to pump every 2-3 hours around the clock for a baby that needed to eat every 3-4 hours. Do the math. I was exhausted and very much in need of a laugh not caused by sleep-deprived mania. So at night, I'd dull the sound of my whooshing breast pump with a blanket as I sat across from my sleeping son and pop my earbuds in to watch 'the girls,' as they became known in my head. By the time I got to Season 4, I was crying with Miranda as she struggled to adapt to motherhood, understanding deeply when she confided in Carrie that her fear was losing the connections that she valued the most — those with her friends. Two seasons later, when Charlotte had her miscarriage, I was thrown again. Just the year before, that sad lump on the couch had been me, and I did not recover in a day or with the help of an E! 'True Hollywood Story' about Elizabeth Taylor. I cried for Charlotte because I knew her heartache, and I was grateful to know I got through it, with a whooshing breast pump to prove it. Watching the show in my 20s had landed differently than my initial watch because by then, I knew what it meant to be lonely, to be broke because you love shoes, to feel broken, to be a good friend and be a bad one. Watching the original show and spin-off in my 30s has been a mixed bag. I have more empathy for their younger selves, more judgement for the older ones who I feel should know better by now and endless amusement that I talk about fictional characters like they're real people I've known for decades. You may not have loved every minute of on-screen or off-screen drama in the 'Sex and the City' universe, but — like real life, where the totality of our stories never hinge on one relationship, one breakup, one decision, one mistake, one triumph — a world rich enough to resonate across decades of your existence is something to be celebrated. At its best, the show has been perspective wrapped in a Tiffany blue box, if you will. Because it has been the reminder that if you survive hard things — like blessings disguised as broken hearts or broken hearts disguised as the end of the world — long enough to have hindsight, that's a gift that never goes out of style. It's time to admit that 'Sex and the City' was never a fling. It was love.
