Halle Berry takes on commenters ‘in their feelings' about her sexy Mother's Day post
Halle Berry has a message for those critical of her steamy Mother's Day post.
Berry shared a video on Instagram in honor of the May holiday and used it as an opportunity to promote her Let's Spin intimacy gel, along with her boyfriend, musician Van Hunt.
'I'm going to tell you how my Mother's Day is going to end,' Berry said in the video with Hunt last month, adding that they were in Cannes and had some of her new product that they were about to…take for a spin.
'Happy Mother's Day once again, everybody,' she said. 'I hope all of you are somewhere spinning.'
'Oh my God. I ain't never been so happy to have Mother's Day come to an end,' Hunt joked.
The post drew some criticism, which Berry was asked about by Jenna Bush Hager as she co-hosted an hour of 'Today' this week.
'Other women got in their feelings,' Berry said.
'They were saying, 'Should she be talking about that on Mother's Day? Shouldn't she be with her kids somewhere?,'' Berry added. 'First of all, it's not 'Kid's Day.' It's called Mother's Day. It's Kid's Day every day of the year. That's my day. If I want to be in bed and spin with my man, then that's what I'm going to do.'
Berry is the mother of two children from former relationships: daughter Nahla, 17, with model Gabriel Aubry, and son Maceo, 11, with actor Olivier Martinez.

Julianne Hough shared a video on Instagram revealing that she's undergoing her third round of egg freezing "Here we go. All in the name of having a little baby," the Dancing with the Stars alum said in the clip Hough described the process as "one of the most vulnerable experiences… physically, emotionally, and for sure hormonally"Julianne Hough is sharing her journey to becoming a mother one day. The Dancing with the Stars alum revealed that she was freezing her eggs in a video offering an intimate look at the process, which she shared on her Instagram on Saturday, June 7. 'Here we go,' Hough said in the video that she dubbed her "egg freezing journey," noting it was 'all in the name of having a little baby.' The video takes viewers through the course of 10 days, where Hough is seen smiling and dancing while she injects herself. She is also seen going to doctor's appointments.

Hough went into greater detail in a lengthy caption accompanying the video, thanking Dr. Carolyn Alexander and her team at Southeast Crescent Regional Commission, which specializes in fertility care and helping to create families, according to its website. 'Navigating fertility is never simple, especially with endometriosis and my own personal timeline and hopes around having children… but with them, I've always felt safe, supported and fully informed,' she wrote, adding that this was now her third round of egg freezing.'I know it's not always the most comfortable thing to talk about, let alone share publicly. But I've realized how important it is to open up about these things,' she continued. 'Women all over the world are quietly walking into doctors' offices, making huge, brave decisions about their bodies and their futures.' Hough described the process as "one of the most vulnerable experiences… physically, emotionally, and for sure hormonally." She further reflected on why she wanted to be so transparent with her fans. 'If sharing just a small piece of my journey helps someone feel less alone, or inspires them to ask questions and explore what's right for them, then I feel like it's worth it,' she wrote. In a 2020 interview with Women's Health, Hough shared that her endometriosis — which is a reproductive condition in which uterine tissue grows outside of the uterus, causing cramping and chronic pain — made her want to freeze her eggs. 'I think the healthier I am from the inside out — as far as my beliefs, my energy, what I'm putting into my body — the better prepared I'll be when the time comes,' she said at the time, when she was married to Brooks Laich. 'We never actually tried to get pregnant. It was more of a precautionary measure: Let's do our due diligence for the future by freezing eggs.' Hough ended her June 7 post by once again thanking her medical team for their unwavering care. 'I truly couldn't be more grateful for this team who's been with me since my second endometriosis laparoscopy surgery back in 2017… they've been like family ever since 💛,' she wrote.

Travis Barker ‘Played Peacemaker' Between Kourtney Kardashian and Alabama Amid Bhad Bhabie Drama
Kourtney Kardashian and husband Travis Barker's daughter Alabama Barker have gone through ups and downs of late, but a source exclusively tells In Touch that the Blink-182 drummer has brokered peace between the two. 'Kourtney and Alabama have really turned a corner. Things are in a much better place between them now than they were a month ago,' the insider says. 'Not to say Kourtney doesn't still have her hands full. Alabama's a very feisty free spirit. She's always going to stick up for herself. But thankfully, Travis stepped in to play peacemaker.' The source adds that Travis, 49, sat down with his wife, 46, and daughter, 19, and 'told them how much he loves them, and how important it is for them to support each other,' especially now that they have Kourtney and Travis' young son, Rocky, 19 months, to take care of. 'It was a turning point. Kourtney and Alabama had a real heart-to-heart and decided to move forward with a clean slate,' the source concludes. 'They're not besties overnight, but there's a lot more respect and effort on both sides now. They even had a girls' date recently and got their nails done together. Travis couldn't be happier. His girls finally getting along has taken a huge weight off his shoulders.' Alabama even made her appreciation for her stepmom publicly known on Mother's Day. The rapper took to her Instagram Stories on May 11 with a sweet shoutout to Kourtney. 'Happy Mother's Day to someone who chose to love me like her own,' Alabama wrote. 'You stepped into my life with patience, care, and an open heart, and I'm so grateful for everything you've done to support and guide me. Your presence has brought comfort, strength, and so much love, and I truly appreciate the role you've played in my life. Thank you for showing up, for listening, and for being someone I can count on. You mean more to me than you know.' Travis shares Alabama and son Landon, 21, with ex Shanna Moakler. He is also a stepfather to Shanna's daughter Atiana De La Hoya, 26. Meanwhile, Kourtney shares son Mason, 15, daughter Penelope, 12, and son Reign, 10, with ex Scott Disick. She and Travis welcomed Rocky in November 2023. The blended family recently faced some drama when Alabama entered a feud with former friend Danielle Bregoli, a.k.a. Bhad Bhabie and the 'Cash Me Outside' Girl. In late 2024, Bhabie, 22, accused Alabama of trying to steal her boyfriend and the father of her child, Le Vaughn, while the pair was on a break. Though Alabama admitted to 'spending time' with the rapper, she denied knowing that he was Bhabie's boyfriend at the time. The female musicians' beef turned into a rap battle with one song, 'Cry Bhabie,' from Alabama and three tracks, 'Over Cooked,' 'Ms. Whitman' and 'OG Crashout,' from Bhabie. The 'Hi Bich' singer dragged Kourtney and her family into the drama on 'Ms. Whitman' in February when she twerked on a Travis lookalike in the music video and rapped about Alabama allegedly getting 'kicked out of the Kardashian house.' She even included a line that was seemingly about Kourtney, rapping, 'Your stepmom burnt out.' Later, both Reign and Rocky were brought into the mix. Reign, who typically stays off social media, appeared on an Instagram Live with Alabama's boyfriend, Scooter Jackson, to deny rumors that Justin Bieber was his father. Meanwhile, Bhabie's mom, Barbara, slammed Alabama as a 'little dirty ass hoe' that was 'still talking about my granddaughter yet her daddy has a whole new family. Rocky rules while you're just on your knees,' she wrote in a social media post. While the feud has seemingly since fizzled out, a source exclusively told In Touch in early May that it was 'a huge source of stress' for Kourtney and Travis. 'They're both upset and worried about Alabama and now on top of that, Kourtney's hit the roof because Rocky and Reign have both gotten dragged into the negativity,' the insider added. The source continued, 'Rocky's a baby and he's already getting trash talked in public thanks to Alabama having this toxic feud. And now thanks to Alabama's boyfriend, Reign has had to answer questions from random strangers on the internet about whether Justin Bieber is his dad. It's absolutely horrifying.'

From film sets to sports stadiums, Bollywood actors are changing the game
When it comes to ambition, Indian film stars are no strangers to reinvention. And now, a growing number of them are making headlines not for their roles in films, but for their strategic forays into the high-stakes world of professional sport. This isn't about a passing passion or publicity stunt — it's a savvy business decision that's reshaping how India consumes both entertainment and sport. Of course, it helps that today's sports presentation is slicker than ever before. Anchors, presenters, and commentators have evolved into celebrities in their own right. Nikita Anand, who first made her mark as Miss India Universe and an actor, has emerged as the most articulate and celebrated presenter in Indian sports broadcasting. She has been a part of major shows like the Indian Super League on Star Sports and Cup Tak on Star News. Her work consistently garners appreciation on Instagram, where fans praise not just her fluency but also the emotional intelligence she brings to her presentation. 'Presenting sport isn't just about stats and scores,' she says. 'It's about capturing the moment, connecting with the energy, and giving the audience something real to hold on to.' Which is exactly what India's actors-turned-sports-investors are doing. Whether it's a stadium full of fans or a streaming audience at home, they're building experiences. They're building brands. And more than anything, they're betting on the future of Indian sport. This shift has taken centre stage over the past decade. It began, unmistakably, with the Indian Premier League. Cricket has always been more than just a game in India — it's religion, celebration, and business rolled into one. When Shah Rukh Khan picked up ownership of the Kolkata Knight Riders in 2008, alongside Juhi Chawla and Jay Mehta, it wasn't just a glitzy endorsement. It was a business masterstroke. 'Sport is no longer operating in a silo. It's entertainment, it's performance, and it's powerful storytelling. Those familiar with cinema instinctively understand these elements — which is why the connection with sport comes so naturally,' says Nikita. Take Preity Zinta, who made headlines as the co-owner of Kings XI Punjab (now Punjab Kings). Or Shilpa Shetty, whose involvement with Rajasthan Royals gave the team an extra sheen of stardust in the early IPL seasons. Their investment was financial, sure, but equally emotional and promotional — the fans followed, and so did the sponsors. But cricket is only one chapter. The new story is being written in football, kabaddi, and beyond. Abhishek Bachchan jumped into the action with Jaipur Pink Panthers in the Pro Kabaddi League. John Abraham made his move with NorthEast United FC in the Indian Super League, showing a genuine commitment to building football in a region rich in sporting potential. Ranbir Kapoor took co-ownership of Mumbai City FC, which has gone on to make impressive strides on the pitch and off it. 'There's real involvement here — participating in team decisions, engaging with strategy, meeting fans, and promoting sports at the grassroots. It's star power and substance,' Nikita explains. What's emerging is a pattern. Indian actors are no longer waiting for scripts — they're writing their own, and sport is proving to be an exciting new plotline. The shift is being driven by more than just passion. Sport is one of India's fastest-growing industries. With a young population, increasing urbanisation, and rising media consumption, the commercial upside is vast. Ticket sales, merchandise, broadcasting rights, streaming content — it's a complete entertainment ecosystem. 'Understanding audience psychology plays a huge role — knowing how to build loyalty, how to sell a moment, and how to turn emotion into energy. That's what great sport is all about too. The synergy is undeniable,' adds Nikita. From cricket fields to kabaddi courts, from football turf to business boardrooms, these stars are stepping into new arenas. Not to perform, but to participate — to shape what comes next. As Nikita Anand puts it, 'The stage has changed, but the showmanship, the intent and drive remain.' And now, it's game on.
