Post Malone reportedly filed custody papers days before his ex-fiancée did
Post Malone reportedly filed for custody of his two-year-old daughter days before his ex-fiancée, Hee Sung 'Jamie' Park, did.
The 29-year-old 'Sunflower' singer submitted his paperwork in Utah on April 14, while Park's petition was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on April 16, according to documents obtained by TMZ and Page Six.
Park filed for sole physical custody and joint legal custody of the child, who is only referred to by the initials DDP. It's not known exactly what Malone, born Austin Post, asked for.
The two outlets reported Malone, born Austin Post, filed in Utah because he and Park were originally co-parenting their daughter.
Malone's ex-partner's identity was only revealed when she filed her custody case. The artist famously kept the majority of his love life a secret.
However, he opened up about proposing to Park in Las Vegas in 2021 during a 2023 appearance on Alex Cooper's Call Her Daddy podcast.
The 'White Iverson' vocalist told Cooper, 30, he was intoxicated, and Park originally refused the proposal. Malone also said he had 'lost a significant amount of money' that night.
'I was like, 'Hey, you wanna marry me?' I got a ring and all this stuff. And she said 'no.' She's like, 'Ask me tomorrow,' and I was like, 'Alright.' And then I did and I was sober and it was nice,' he admitted.
The former couple welcomed their daughter a year after they got engaged. Malone never posted an announcement for his newborn daughter, but he did confirm her birth in conversation with Howard Stern on his eponymous show.
In August 2024, Malone opened up about becoming a father and sharing his daughter with Park while speaking on CBS Sunday Mornings.
'It changes your life in the best way ever, and the most beautiful thing is she has a beautiful mom,' she said. 'I'll never forget her. If you've heard her cry, you'll never forget her, either. Four years ago, I was on a rough path. It was terrible.'
Malone's custody revelations come as the singer is set to headline Coachella for the second weekend on Sunday.
Last weekend, the Grammy-winner performed a slew of his fan-favorite hits, including 'rockstar,' 'Congratulations,' 'Psycho,' and 'Better Now.'

Rams, Sean McVay Drop Clever Reaction to Surprise Reference by Lil' Wayne
Rams, Sean McVay Drop Clever Reaction to Surprise Reference by Lil' Wayne originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Sean McVay found his way into "Tha Carter VI" courtesy of Lil' Wayne. The Grammy winning rapper dropped his much-anticipated newest album Friday. It's the sixth installment of his "Tha Carter" album series that's won over his fans over the years. Now he's grabbed the attention of the Los Angeles Rams. Wayne references the Super Bowl winning head coach on the track "Welcome to Tha Carter," which is the second track off the 19-song album. The song starts with a church choir theme intro, but then blends in drums and Wayne's signature rapping voice. It goes from Gospel theme to one filled with sports references -- including this lyric that brings up McVay: "Smokin that bomb LA like I'm McVay/Bombs away, I'm just tryna concentrate," Wayne raps. Well, turns out the Rams heard that bar loud and clear. They posted this clever reaction featuring their beloved head coach. The Super Bowl LVI winner isn't the only L.A. reference on the track. Former Los Angeles Lakers champion and NBA All-Star Metta World Peace is mentioned by Wayne on the song too. McVay himself hasn't personally reacted to the song. But it's not the first time the Rams have reacted to any major Hip-Hop news. Rams mascot Rampage posted a picture mimicking Kendrick Lamar's "GNX" album cover -- which showed the mascot in front of the Buick vehicle just like the Compton native. Lamar released that album in 2024 and since has gone on tour -- including performing two shows at the Rams' home of SoFi Stadium. The Rams also used the late Nipsey Hussle's hit track "Grindin' All My Life" as part of their 2024 schedule release. Now the New Orleans native Wayne showed love to McVay and story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 6, 2025, where it first appeared.

Avril Lavigne thanks parents for their sacrifices
Avril Lavigne has thanked her parents for the "sacrifices" they made for her. The 40-year-old star is currently on her Avril Lavigne: The Greatest Hits tour and after bringing her mom out on stage at New York's Madison Square Garden, she has expressed her gratitude for all the help and support her mother and father have shown over the years. Sharing a video and photos of her mom on stage, Avril wrote on Instagram: "I brought my Mom up on stage last night !!!! "Ever since I was a little girl, both my mom and dad saw something in me and encouraged me to practice very hard and pursue my dream of becoming a singer/ musician. "They made a lot of sacrifices for me and I could not be where I am today without them. Mom thank you for believing in me. I am grateful to both my parents. Thank you for everything, I love you both! [heart emojis] (sic)" During the New York show, Avril recalled to the audience that her mom had told her "you're going to be a singer one day" after she sang Jesus Loves Me. She added: "When I was two years old, she knew I was going to be a singer." Meanwhile, Avril previously laughed off the conspiracy theory that she was replaced by a body double named Melissa after struggling with the pressures of fame. The Complicated hitmaker insisted the rumours have never bothered her because she knows there are far worse things that people could have said. Speaking on the Call Her Daddy podcast, she said: "I mean, it's just funny to me. Like, on one end, everyone's like, 'You look the exact same. You haven't aged a day.' But then other people are like, there's a conspiracy theory that I'm not me. Honestly, it's not that bad. It could be worse, right? "I feel like I got a good one. I don't feel like it's negative. It's nothing creepy! Obviously I am me, it's so dumb! "I think that they've done that with other artists. I'm not the only one. I think, like, other people have that."

Cynthia Erivo Says ‘I Forgive You' On New Album
Cynthia Erivo Acclaimed singer and actress Cynthia Erivo is heading back to Oz later this year in Wicked: For Good, but between her turns as Elphaba on the big screen, the Grammy and Tony winner is returning to music with her second studio album, I Forgive You. I Forgive You arrives four years after Erivo's debut LP Ch. 1 Vs. 1 and is an intimate look into the ups and the downs of the star's personal life. She first teased the album with lead single 'Replay' and followed it up with 'Worst of Me' in April. 'This album is a collection of stories and songs that are both personal for things that are happening now, things that have happened in the past, and I think some of which I have had to forgive people for. And honestly, some of which I've had to forgive myself for. And I loved the idea of calling it this title, because it's a simple concept, but not an easy one. And not one that we as humans are very good at, often,' she told The Associated Press of the project. Recording I Forgive You, then, was a cathartic expression for Erivo. 'The meat of each of the pieces that you listen to is the voice, so that you can hear the lyrics, you can hear the song, you can hear the emotion in it,' she said. 'Everything you hear in there is real and tangible.' Singing and acting have been intertwined in Erivo's career for years, and for her, the two work in tandem to improve the other. 'They feed each other,' she explained. 'When I sing, I feel free and I feel open, which means that when I go and act — because I've given myself that experience — the want to close off again sort of goes away. So, when I'm on a set, I'm as open as I am when I am singing. I'm waiting to receive whatever I'm getting from my counterpart or whoever's opposite me so I can actually listen. Because the act of writing and singing actually is also the act of listening.'
