Tyrese Gibson might face court action tied to unresolved divorce matter

Tyrese Gibson might face court action tied to unresolved divorce matter

Express Tribune3 days ago
Tyrese Gibson is facing the threat of jail time over nearly half a million dollars in unpaid legal fees related to his divorce from ex-wife Samantha Gibson. According to court documents obtained by Complex and originally reported by TMZ, Samantha's legal team has filed a fourth motion to hold the actor and singer in contempt of court for allegedly failing to pay $492,651.99 owed to two law firms.
The outstanding amount includes attorney fees and accrued interest owed to The Gleklen Law Firm and Bloom Lines Alexander. Samantha's lawyers are now requesting a criminal contempt ruling and are pushing for a maximum penalty of 20 days in jail, citing Gibson's continued failure to settle the debt.
Tyrese and Samantha Gibson were married in 2017 and share a daughter, Soraya. The couple divorced in 2020, and Samantha later admitted during a 2023 podcast appearance that she may have rushed the decision to end the marriage. Despite her remarks, her attorneys maintain that the financial obligations resulting from the divorce remain valid and overdue.
This latest development adds to a growing list of legal troubles for the Fast & Furious star. As of now, Tyrese has not publicly responded to the motion or the allegations of nonpayment. The court has yet to issue a ruling on the contempt request.

Demi Lovato releases Fast as lead single from upcoming ninth album

Demi Lovato has officially returned to the pop music scene with the release of her latest single, Fast, which debuted Thursday night. The track is the lead single from her forthcoming ninth studio album and marks a stylistic shift back to pop following her previous rock-inspired record, Holy Fvck. Lovato began teasing Fast in mid-July on Instagram, where she lip-synced lyrics from the track, building anticipation among fans: ''Cause baby honestly / I just wanna feel your hands all over me…' The full music video expands on the track's fiery energy, showing Lovato strutting among burning cars while singing the high-octane chorus: 'I wanna go fast / I wanna go hard / I wanna go anywhere, anywhere you are.' Lovato's return to pop will be shaped by producer Zhone, known for collaborations with Kesha, Troye Sivan, and Charli XCX. In a statement to Rolling Stone, Zhone praised her evolution as an artist, saying, 'She is such a master in the studio. This album is about letting inhibitions go, and we had so much fun making this music!' Fast follows Lovato's 2023 project Revamped, which reimagined past hits from her discography with updated production. Her return to music also comes nearly a year after her directorial debut with Child Star, a documentary that explored the challenges of growing up in the spotlight. The project featured interviews with Drew Barrymore, Christina Ricci, JoJo Siwa, and other former child stars. Lovato recently married musician Jordan 'Jutes' Luts, adding another personal milestone as she steps into a new era of artistry.

'Guess' co-founder defends AI model and insists human models aren't going anywhere

Paul Marciano, co-founder of Guess, has become the face of a raging debate over fashion's future after hiring an AI-generated model for the brand's latest campaign. Despite fierce backlash, he insisted to TMZ that the real-life models will remain centre stage at Guess. The controversy erupted after Vogue published an ad featuring an AI-generated figure, created by marketing agency Seraphinne Vallora under Marciano's direction. Critics blasted the decision, arguing it erodes opportunities for real models and promotes impossible beauty ideals. Despite the heat, Marciano claimed he was drawn to the concept when scrolling through Instagram: 'When one of their AI models had total Guess girl vibes,' he explained, it piqued his interest. Marciano emphasized that the AI experiment is not intended to replace human talent. He reaffirmed Guess's continuing support for real models, noting that the next major campaign will feature entirely human faces. He dismissed critics, stating the decision to introduce AI 'wasn't a reaction to backlash or someone's opinions.' The initiative is backed by high production costs: each AI model reportedly costs low six figures to create and is trained using real reference photos to ensure authenticity and brand alignment. Still, concerns remain over issues like image rights, diversity limitations, and consent. Seraphinne Vallora co-founders even admitted they can't yet generate plus-size models and said models' feedback most often limits AI lifelike representations. Lila Gonzalez and Andreea Petrescu, founders of Seraphinne Vallora, claim the AI tools serve as creative extensions, not replacements, for real human models, offering added flexibility in campaigns. Yet their agency has sparked broader debate about ethics in fashion: Who owns AI-generated likenesses, and how easily can content be removed if a model changes their mind? Marciano likened the AI tool to past innovations Guess embraced, much like its bold switch to colour logos when competitors stuck to monotone branding. He said, 'Guess has always had an eye for what's next. Human models still matter. This was just a creative experiment that caught my eye.'
