Former Maroon 5 bassist accused of assault after wife confronted him over sexting minors: ‘He appeared literally insane'
As per the report, Catherine says the incident in question occurred on July 21, after claiming that she was tipped off by a teenage girl regarding Mickey's alleged inappropriate texts with minors and confronted him at their Los Angeles home. 'I was extremely hurt and disturbed. I needed to understand what was going on between them,' Catherine wrote, per court filings.
According to her description, when Mickey resisted handing over his phone, Catherine could see him deleting messages. She fled the house, prompting Mickey—wearing only underwear—to pursue her outside. The legal documents claim he 'put both his arms around my body around my abdomen and arms to restrain me,' slammed her into a marble countertop, shoved her to the ground, and continued assaulting her as she escaped between cars. 'He appeared literally insane to me,' Catherine alleged.
She also referenced a separate incident on May 14, accusing him of abuse and stating that she is now 'terrified' of him.
Submitted screenshots of text messages reportedly include Mickey calling the inappropriate-texting a 'private and fake harmless fantasy,' claiming it had 'no bearing on real life.' Catherine, in contrast, wrote: 'I do not know the man who hires 18 year old prostitutes to text them about wanting to be their stepdad and rape them while we are on our honeymoon.' Mickey's messages reportedly continue with: 'I am beyond sorry for my actions … it's all completely unacceptable … it would never act on any of that consensual fantasy talk.'
Catherine is also seeking financial support and custody of their dogs, citing financial control during their five‑year marriage. The court will consider the full case on August 20.
Mickey—who left Maroon 5 in 2020 following a separate domestic violence allegation and was previously arrested for cocaine possession in 2016—has not publicly responded to these latest allegations.

Joe Jonas Confirms Camp Rock 3 Is In The Works? Here's What We Know
Back in 2017, Nick Jonas declared he'd be keen on making an adult-rated Camp Rock 3. Joe Jonas appears to have suggested Camp Rock 3 is on its way. The Sucker singer, along with his Jonas Brothers bandmates and siblings Nick and Kevin Jonas, starred opposite Demi Lovato in the 2008 Disney movie and its 2010 follow-up Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam, and he's suggested a script has been written for a third instalment in the series, though he didn't share any further details. The Jonas Brothers appeared on the latest episode of Hot Ones Versus, and Joe was asked to read the last entry on his Notes app out loud. He looked at the camera and said: 'Uh-oh." He then cleared his throat and said: 'Read Camp Rock 3." Nick put down his glass of milk and made a shocked face, prompting laughter from his brothers and the crew, before he said: 'It's pretty good." Kevin added: 'Okay, that's a pretty good one." Joe pointed at his phone and said: 'It's the truth. It's literally right here. Sorry, Disney." Back in 2017, Nick declared he'd be keen on making an adult-rated Camp Rock 3. He added to People magazine: 'If the right thing comes together, I think that'd be fun. It's a really delicate thing because [they're two films] really beloved by fans. So I think for it to work, it'd have to be some creative new version where we get a writing team and do something special." Earlier this year, Alyson Stoner, who played Caitlyn Geller, insisted she hadn't heard any talk of a Camp Rock 3 and was unsure how the cast could reunite for another film. She told People magazine in June: 'I truly cannot confirm or deny anything. They haven't given me a ring. I wonder where that plot line would go. It would thicken. It would have to thicken quite a bit to get all of us back." Camp Rock followed Mitchie Torres (Lovato) as she attended the titular prestigious music camp and caught the attention of pop star Shane Gray (Joe), who was also attending the camp to reignite his passion, while the sequel saw the facility fight for survival amid the launch of a rival, Camp Star.

John Cena reveals hair transplant journey: How the WWE star regained his hair with red-light therapy
WWE legend John Cena has opened up about his hair loss and the hair transplant he underwent last year, calling it a life-changing experience. The 48-year-old wrestler and actor told People magazine that the procedure not only boosted his confidence but also helped his acting career. Cena decided to go ahead after WWE fans noticed his bald spot. 'The audience held up signs calling me 'the bald John Cena',' he said. 'They didn't let me ignore it — and I'm grateful.' John Cena's hair transplant Cena described the procedure simply: 'They don't do anything except move your hair, one by one, from one area to another. If somebody's going to sweat me for that, I don't think there's any shame in that. It completely changed the course of my life.'

'If there wasn't so much shame around hair transplants, I would have done it 10 years ago,' he said. 'It's worth the effort.' How red-light therapy helps hair growth Red-light therapy uses low-level lasers or LED lights, usually around 650 nanometers, to penetrate the scalp. This increases blood flow and stimulates hair follicles, encouraging them to enter the growth phase. It also reduces inflammation around the follicles, slowing hair loss. Studies have found it effective for common male and female pattern baldness, but results require regular sessions over weeks or months. What is a hair transplant? A hair transplant is a surgical procedure where hair is moved from thicker parts of the scalp or body to areas that are thinning or bald. It is usually considered when other treatments, such as topical ointments, fail. Experts use mini- and micro-grafts to ensure the transplanted hair blends naturally with the surrounding scalp. Live Events How does a hair transplant procedure work? Hair is mostly taken from the back of the head. The area is sterilised and numbed with a local anaesthetic before the procedure begins. Two main methods are used: Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT): Also called follicular unit strip surgery, this involves removing a strip of scalp from the back of the head. The strip is divided into smaller pieces, and tiny holes are made in the balding area where the hair is transplanted. Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE): In this method, individual hair follicles are removed from the back of the head after shaving the area. The surgeon then makes small holes in the scalp to graft the follicles. The surgical site is covered with bandages or gauze after the procedure. Is a hair transplant safe? Experts say hair transplants are generally safe when performed correctly. Common side effects can include scarring, infections, scalp pain, inflammation, and uneven hair growth. Rare complications may involve nausea, dizziness, irregular heart rate, or swelling.
