Kacey Musgraves is 'in a lot of pain' after breaking a rib
The 36-year-old singer has revealed via social media that she's "in a lot of pain" after she recently suffered a fall.
Alongside an image of her X-ray, Kasey wrote on Instagram: "Sooo I'm in Mexico with a f****** broken rib.
"Wednesday night it was raining and I was running to grab some towels and had an extremely hard fall on some very slick tile I didn't see. Thankful I didn't smack my head but I landed very very hard on my back left ribcage, and I broke rib number 6.
"This s*** is no joke. I'm in a lot of pain and doing ANYTHING is extremely difficult but I'm managing and being well taken care of. (sic)"
Kacey is currently unable to perform live because of her injury. The singer has also been forced to reschedule the live recording of a podcast.
She continued: "There is no physical way I can get on a plane and fly back to Nashville for the @singforscience event with @paulstaments on Sunday at @theryman. I am extremely bummed to have to reschedule as I have been looking forward to this for months but there is literally no other option. I'm so sorry for the inconvenience. (sic)"
Kacey released her debut album, Same Trailer Different Park, in 2013, and she's subsequently become one of the biggest names in country music.
The singer - who was born and raised in Texas - recently revealed that she loves taking her music overseas and engaging with her international fans.
The Merry Go 'Round hitmaker told The Hollywood Reporter: "I'm going to South America, then Asia and Australia.
"I'm playing Brazil for the first time. I know the energy and the fans there are unlike anywhere else. I'm playing this massive rodeo [Sao Paulo's Jaguariuna], which is really cool. Rodeo is huge in Brazil.
"It's been really cool to see the rest of the world come to love country music, because, really, country is more about a mentality and an attitude versus geography. Real country music is based on real emotions all humans have, no matter where you're from."

Weapons director Zach Cregger 'in talks for Aunt Gladys prequel'
Zach Cregger is reportedly in talks for a Weapons prequel. The 44-year-old filmmaker has made waves with his new original horror movie blockbuster, and fans could be looking forward to a spinoff flick focused on Amy Madigan's already iconic Aunt Gladys character. According to The Hollywood Reporter, studios Warner Bros and New Line are in discussions with the writer and director about an origin story for the enigmatic aunt. Sources told the outlet that a chapter focused on Gladys and her backstory was written for the film, but pulled from the script to streamline the story. While there is no timeline or deals in place, it's reported that the "lost chapter" could be turned into its own full length film. Cregger is keeping busy in the meantime, as he's currently starting work on his Resident Evil reboot. Other potential projects in the pipeline include Henchmen, an original story set in the world of Batman. THR has claimed the film - which is yet to be formally pitched to DC Studios - would focus on a low-level henchmen in Gotham who has a sudden rise in the Gotham crime world after taking out the Caped Crusader "through a stroke of luck". Meanwhile, Cregger has also already penned a script for an original sci-fi film called Flood, which he's also keen to make. However, he's made it clear he's open to exploring more stories based in the world of Weapons. He recently told Variety: "Definitely. I've actually … it's funny you asked that. "I can't help it: I have another idea for something in this world that I'm kind of excited about. "I'm not going to do it next, and I probably won't do it after my next movie, but I do have one and I'd like to see it on the screen one day." In Weapons - which stars Julia Garner, June Diane Raphael, Alden Ehrenreich, Josh Brolin, Austin Abrams and Amy Madigan - 17 third-grade students vanish from their homes in the dead of night, triggering a tense mystery told through multiple perspectives that must unravel the sinister force behind their disappearance. Madigan's character Aunt Gladys is ripe for a prequel, given her mysterious and witchy nature - and even Cregger is unsure about who she actually is in the film. He told Vanity Fair magazine: "I don't know the answer, but I love that I don't know the answer. "I don't need to know the answer. I just need to know that it's all possible.' He came up with two possibilities for the witch's origin story, with one being that she was previously a regular person but now uses spells and evil actions to try and heal herself from a life threatening illness. The other idea is her not being a person at all, but instead being an otherworldly creature trying to mimic a human. Cregger added: "I presented Amy with two options of her origin story. I was like, 'You can pick one of these two'. "They're very different options. And was like, 'You don't have to tell me, but it is either this or that.' "I don't know which one she picked.'

Chris O'Dowd to star in Artificial
Chris O'Dowd is set to star in Artificial. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Bridesmaids actor has joined the cast of Luca Guadagnino's comedic drama, which is reported to be a recounting of the rocky period at OpenAI in 2023 where CEO Sam Altman was fired and rehired in a matter of days. Andrew Garfield, Cooper Koch, Yura Borisov, Monica Barbaro, Jason Schwartzman, Cooper Hoffman, Ike Barinholtz and Billie Lourd have already been cast in the ensemble film, which is currently shooting. It is assumed that Garfield is portraying Altman, while Borisov takes on the role of Ilya Sutskever - a co-founder who led the movement to remove Altman from OpenAI, and A Complete Unknown actress Barbaro playing chief technology officer Mira Murati. No details on O'Dowd's role have been revealed. Writer Simon Rich has penned the script and is producing alongside Heyday Films' David Heyman and Jeffrey Clifford, as well as Jennifer Fox. Artificial will mark the third collaboration between Guadagnino and Amazin MGM Studios after they worked on 2024's Challengers and the upcoming thriller After the Hunt, which also stars Garfield and is due for release in October. When the project was announced in June, David Heyman said: 'We've always wanted to work with Luca. His talent, his sensibility – he is a singular filmmaker, and I'm excited to be collaborating with him on this.' Aside from Artificial and After the Hunt, Guadagnino is also working on a new movie adaptation of author Bret Easton Ellis' 1991 novel American Psycho. In April, the director teased 'the script is coming out very handsomely' for the film as he and writer Scott Z. Burns continue to work on the movie. Appearing in a video segment at CinemaCon, Guadagnino said: 'We are really working hard to bring to the screen a new adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis' American Psycho, a book that I deeply love that is something that influenced me so much. '[Burns] is doing an incredible job. The script is coming out very handsomely.'

Danielle Spencer dead at 60
Danielle Spencer has died. The 60-year-old former actress – who was best known for playing precocious youngster Dee Thomas on the 1970s sitcom What's Happening!! – passed away in hospital in Richmond, Virginia on Monday (11.08.25) after a 'long battle with cancer'. Her What's Happening co-star Haywood Nelson wrote on Instagram: 'Brilliance! It comes in a great many forms. We all have them and we all have this family's - Dr. Danielle Spencer (June 24, 1965 - August 11, 2025). 'Dr. Dee, our brilliant, loving, positive, pragmatic warrior, without fail, has finally found her release from the clutches of this world and a body. We celebrate Danielle Spencer and her contributions as we regret to inform her departure and transition from a long battle with cancer. 'We have lost a daughter, sister, family member, What's Happening cast member, veterinarian animal rights proponent and healer, and cancer heroine. Our Shero. Danielle is loved. She will be missed in this form and forever embraced. @ernestleethomas @extrap72 @ @danygirl624.' Danielle underwent a double mastectomy in 2014 after being diagnosed with breast cancer and in 2018 she had emergency surgery to relieve bleeding on her brain. Nelson told The Hollywood Reporter: 'She suffered for a very long time but did it with a great deal of courage.' What's Happening!! – which was loosely based on the 1975 film Cooley High – ran for three seasons from 1976 to 1979. Spencer reprised her role for the sequel What's Happening Now!, which aired for another three seasons from 1985. In 1993, Spencer earned a doctorate in veterinary medicine and she played a vet in James L. Brooks' 1997 film, As Good as It Gets. She worked as a vet in the Los Angeles area for 20 years before moving to Richmond in 2014. Nelson said: 'She had a great love of animals, she was like Betty White in that way.' In 2014, she was inducted into the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture. She is survived by her mother Cheryl and her brother Jeremy, a jazz musician.
