Jodie Sweetin shares update on Candace Cameron Bure relationship
Jodie Sweetin wouldn't "hug" Candace Cameron Bure if she saw her but she doesn't "hate" her.
The 43-year-old actress insisted she and her former 'Full House' co-star - who came under fire in 2022 when she vowed to keep "traditional marriage at the core" of Great American Family's programming - have never "actually got into it" when it comes to their opposing views on topics such as the LGBTQ+ community and compared their dynamic to extended families who know discussing politics will end in a row.
Speaking on 'The Vault' podcast, Jodie said: "She posted her viewpoint and I posted mine. We've always been very different on those things.
"Candace and I – we just live very different lifestyles. We just exist in sort of very different worlds, but she is still someone I have known since I was five years old.
"It's like family members, where you're like, maybe we don't talk all the time — and I know if politics come up, it is not going to go well — but I don't hate you. I am not going to not hug you, but I am also not gonna keep my mouth shut."
Last year, Candace, 49, branded the Paris Olympics opening ceremony "disgusting" because she felt it "completely blasphemed...the Christian faith with their interpretation of the Last Supper" and Jodie later reposted a video to her own Instagram Story which explained the scene was an interpretation of the Greek god Dionysus.
However, she has insisted she wasn't taking a deliberate swipe at her former co-star.
She said: "To be honest, I wasn't even speaking about her.
"There was already some thing that had happened where we went [on] very divergent paths on something we said – and then I saw the Olympics thing and I saw all these people freaking out about it, and I was like, 'Oh my God, tell me you know nothing about art history without telling me you know nothing,' and then everyone was like, 'She came for Candace!' And I was like, 'What the?' "
While Candace unfollowed Jodie on Instagram three years ago, she insisted she won't be doing the same.
She said: "I'm not gonna unfollow anybody. I don't live my life based on social media. I think it can be used for some great things, and I also think it can be really negative and full of a lot of s***, particularly these days.'

Joshua Jackson 'ideally' wants 'exactly equal' contact time with daughter
Joshua Jackson "ideally" wants his daughter's time to be split "exactly equally" between himself and Jodie Turner-Smith. The former Dawson's Creek star has filed a motion asking the court to intervene in a dispute over where four-year-old Juno will go to school, and as part of his submission, an emotional note he had written to his former spouse, in which he objected to the youngster being away from him for weeks at a time, was included. According to Us Weekly, Joshua wants Juno to stay at her current school because the one Jodie wants to send her to is further away from his current home, and he also objected to the Queen + Slim star's plan to take their daughter to London for five weeks while she is working overseas. He wrote: 'Thank you for your quick response. I am happy that we are having this dialogue and look forward to coming to an agreement together that balances all of [Juno's] needs to provide her with the best outcome possible. 'I am open to Juno being with you any time you may be able to return to Los Angeles [during your time working in London]. I don't think it's good for Juno to go for as long as you have proposed without seeing either parent, whenever it is reasonably possible for us to avoid without putting undue stress on Juno. 'At this age four weeks is an eternity to her. I understand why you are willing to agree to have Juno be based in Los Angeles during that time, it reduces the stress of air travel and time zone shifting on her.' The 46-year-old actor disagreed with Jodie's claim that Juno wouldn't have any time with him for six weeks. He wrote: 'Thankfully this summer I have the ability to travel, thereby reducing the need for Juno to incur additional travel while still being able to provide her with a frequent, continuing and meaningful contact with both parents. 'I think that maximizing that frequent, continuing and meaningful contact should be our guiding light [through] all of these conversations and planning of parenting time. Juno needs both of us. Ideally exactly equally.' Joshua went on to raise issues with Jodie's planned trip to Morocco with their daughter. He wrote: 'I do not agree for Juno to travel with you to Morocco. I will need much more information, dates, places, hotels, security, your work [schedule] etc and a meaningful discussion with [you] prior to considering any specific travel to Morocco or anywhere else for that matter.' The point saw the Doctor Odyssey star raise an "issue" he claimed had happened last year when Jodie had "let me know about your travel plans with her only after Juno was on her way to London or already there.' The note also addressed research Jodie had presented about biracial children and their relationship with their mother. Joshua wrote: 'I have read some articles about this, but I am always willing to educate myself further if you can send me some links or citations. I am already in agreement that the mother/daughter relationship is of huge importance. "I recognise that there are areas of Juno's experience that I cannot touch or speak to from my own experience. 'I hope you agree that the father/daughter relationship is also of huge importance.'

Twist as ‘fan' storms stage at Katy Perry's Sydney concert
A man has stormed the stage while Katy Perry was performing in Sydney on Monday night, shocking the singer and prompting a swift response from security guards. The US pop star was singing one of her biggest hits during her second show at Qudos Bank Arena when a fan managed to bypass security and storm the stage. WATCH THE VIDEO ABOVE: Fan storms stage at Katy Perry concert Perry was performing Hot N Cold with a guitar in hand when the concertgoer came up behind her and put his arm around the singer. She looked visibly confused but handled it professionally, walking away while security rushed the stage. Perry quickly addressed the incident saying: 'Well, there's never gonna be another show like this so just enjoy it, Sydney.' Video shows multiple security guards surrounding the man and carrying him away. It's not the first time the concertgoer, whose name is Johnson Wen, has been in the spotlight for his antics. Wen, who posts his stunts on TikTok, has a history of being a public nuisance and has disrupted the concerts of some of the world's biggest acts. Just last year the 24-year-old managed to jump on stage and hug The Weeknd during one of his concerts in Melbourne at Marvel Stadium. Johnson Wen managed to get past security and ran up behind Katy Perry while she was singing her hit song Hot N Cold. Credit: 7NEWS / TikTok In an earlier incident, Wen delayed the men's 100m final at the 2024 Paris Olympics when he invaded the track, and he ran onto the pitch during the 2023 Cricket World Cup Final, where he approached cricketer Virat Kohli. He was also fined $220 for a pitch invasion at a rugby game in January 2021, and $250 in November 2020 for dangling from a Brisbane footbridge. Speaking to 7NEWS just after the incident at The Weeknd concert, Wen said he did not get scared during his stunts but rather felt a sense of 'euphoria'. 'I was extremely happy and as soon as I got to The Weeknd I knew that my plan worked.' Wen jumped on stage and hugged The Weeknd during one of his Melbourne concerts last year. Credit: TikTok Wen posted several TikTok videos of himself running onstage during Perry's concert, captioning one video: 'Me running up to Katy Perry on stage. Katy Perry your songs are my childhood memory since 2008.' The videos have so far garnered mostly disapproving comments. 'You suck for this,' one person said. 'Why is he not banned for future concerts,' said another. Streakers can be fined up to $5000 in Australia or face a ban from the venue or sports game. Perry is performing another show in Sydney on Tuesday night as part of her Lifetimes tour before jetting off to Melbourne where she will perform three shows.
