Kid Cudi testifies during Diddy trial in star-studded turn of events
Hours before the duo graduated, their dad's federal trial continued with star-studded testimony from "Sad People" hitmaker Kid Cudi.
The rapper, whose real name is Scott Mescudi, briefly dated Ventura Fine in 2011. But she told the court last week that when Combs learned of their relationship, the Bad Boy Records founder lunged at her with a corkscrew and kicked her in the back.

On May 22, jurors heard Mescudi's recollection of Combs' alleged abuse.
Mescudi took the stand, claiming that Combs broke into his home and locked his dog in a bathroom – and that his vehicle blew up in another incident – after the embattled mogul found out he was dating Ventura Fine.
Federal prosecutors believe that the alleged incidents are among the laundry list of inappropriate, illegal actions Combs engineered during a 20-year scheme to coerce women, including Ventura Fine, to take part in drug-fueled sex parties known as "freak offs" and prevent them from leaving his orbit. Combs has pleaded not guilty to all charges and denied the allegations against him.

Stream It Or Skip It: ‘The Real Housewives Of Miami' Season 7 On Bravo, Where Alexia Nepola And Larsa Pippen's Breakups Are Immediately Addressed
It's been more than a year since The Real Housewives of Miami wrapped its sixth season, but the hit Bravo show is finally back — and the ladies are bringing the heat. Executive producer Andy Cohen has been teasing Season 7 for a while now, telling fans on Watch What Happens Live that this season is 'unbelievable' and that the dramatic teaser didn't even 'scratch the surface.' But was he right? We watched the first episode to decide for ourselves. Keep reading for our full review of The Real Housewives of Miami's Season 7 premiere: Opening Shot: Five months before production for Season 7 was supposed to begin, Todd Nepola shockingly filed for divorce from Alexia Nepola after two years of marriage. When Bravo decided to pick up cameras early (in April 2024, days after Todd filed), Alexia shared her side of the story, revealing that she was, indeed, 'blindsided' by his decision to end their marriage. The Gist: While everyone came together to support Alexia in the wake of her separation, some friendships took a turn for the worse in the five months between Todd's divorce filing and the actual start of production. In the premiere episode of The Real Housewives of Miami Season 7, tensions are already boiling between Lisa Hochstein and Larsa Pippen, and Julia Lemigova and Guerdy Abraira. But the drama, particularly between Lisa and Larsa, all comes to a head when they come face to face at Jody's birthday party. What Shows Will This Remind You Of? The Real Housewives of Miami is just like any other Real Housewives show — just a little spicier and, at times, a lot louder. Our Take: The Real Housewives of Miami has had an interesting run. The show aired on Bravo for its first three seasons before it was placed on pause. Eight years later, it was revived on Peacock for Season 4 and Season 5 — and finally brought back to Bravo for Season 6 and, now, Season 7. Giving this franchise a second chance on Bravo was, truth be told, one of the smartest decisions the network has made (besides giving Cohen his own talk show). The drama is always top-tier, the aesthetics are chic, and the women are just the right amount of delulu that keeps Bravoholics coming back for more — and Season 7 is no different. So much has happened since we last saw the Miami ladies on our screens. Alexia has gotten divorced (even though she and Todd seem to be back together in some capacity), Larsa and Marcus Jordan's fairytale relationship has come to an end, and Julia has welcomed two new members to her family. The good thing? Almost every single life update is addressed in the Season 7 premiere. Confrontations are held. Tears are shed. Heck, we even get a theme party! Essentially, everything we love about The Real Housewives is right there in Episode 1 — and if they can keep that same momentum through all 10+ episodes, Bravo fans are surely in for a treat. I think it's safe to say that Cohen was right about this one, folks. Sex and Skin: The closest we get to sex and skin is Adriana making out with her new French boyfriend on the couch at Jody's birthday party. Sleeper Star: Kiki Barth has what it takes to be the star of The Real Housewives of Miami — if only Bravo would give her a full-time contract! She's gorgeous, she's honest, and her witty confessionals are next level. It's time that Kiki finally gets the recognition she deserves. Most Pilot-y Line: 'She's crazy. She's drunk and stupid. And she is a bitch.' I don't normally pick catty lines for this one, but I can already see this getting turned into a viral TikTok audio. Thank you, Larsa! Our Call: STREAM IT. The Real Housewives of Miami Season 7 is on FYAH. The Real Housewives of Miami premieres Wednesday, June 11 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Bravo. New episodes are available to stream the next day on Peacock.

Charles Barkley Drops Retirement Plans After Final 'Inside the NBA' TNT Episode
Charles Barkley Drops Retirement Plans After Final 'Inside the NBA' TNT Episode originally appeared on Athlon Sports. "Inside the NBA" has been a staple for basketball fans for the past 36 years, and on Saturday night, TNT aired its final episode. Shaquille O'Neal, Kenny Smith, Ernie Johnson, Charles Barkley, and the rest of the crew aren't going away, though, with the show moving to ESPN starting next season. Advertisement It was a bittersweet moment for everyone at TNT. But despite the move, the crew will continue working with TNT and ESPN simultaneously. Barkley was a guest on the "Dan Patrick Show," and said, "If they're being honest, we're gonna probably work on ESPN one-third or half the time." Barkley has been outspoken about his concerns with the move because of his schedule. He has made it clear he doesn't want to take on more work as he is set to move between the two networks. "If they start trying to work me too much between ESPN and TNT, I'm just gonna walk on home," Barkley added. Advertisement Barkley went on to discuss his retirement plans, saying he has seven years left on his TNT deal, but he's only got two more years in him. "I actually have seven years left on my contract," Barkley stated. "I'm like, yeah, there's no way I'm working seven years. I said, I'm gonna be a good soldier for Kenny, Ernie, and Shaq, and the people I work with. Because I love the people I work with, especially behind the scenes. "I said, but the best I can do is two years. And them other five years, they got no chance of happening. So I said, you know what, I'll give y'all two years. They're like, can we get three? I said, I just told you, I ain't gonna give you two." 11-time NBA All-Star and "Inside the NBA" host Charles Terada-Imagn Images The 16-year NBA legend also spoke about what he's going to be doing at TNT now that the show is moving to ESPN. He said he and the rest of his crew filmed a "pilot" a month ago for TNT and called it the "stupidest (expletive) I've ever seen." Advertisement "TNT is trying to do something stupid behind the scenes," Barkley added. "We taped a pilot about a month ago. And it was the stupidest (expletive) I've ever seen in my life... Barkley said TNT wants to have a show with no "basketball highlights." "Number one, we won't have basketball highlights," Barkley said. "But also, we're probably going to be going up against the NBA game. And anybody who likes basketball ain't going to say, hey, you know what, let me turn off an NBA game that's on Amazon, ESPN, or NBC to go watch these four dudes sit around and talk about nothing."

Michael Jordan News Emerges Amid $40 Million NBA Return Rumors
Michael Jordan News Emerges Amid $40 Million NBA Return Rumors originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Michael Jordan, widely considered the greatest basketball player of all time, is set to return to the NBA next season. While he won't be suiting up and stepping on the court, he'll be taking on a new role. With the league's broadcast moving from TNT to NBC for the 2025-26 season, Jordan will serve as a "special contributor" for NBC's coverage. Advertisement His exact role hasn't been announced, but getting the six-time NBA champion to come out of retirement and appear on television likely took a lot. On the "PBD Podcast," Patrick Bet-David mentioned that Jordan is reportedly receiving a $40 million annual deal. Michael Jordan is honored for being selected to the NBA 75th Anniversary Terada-Imagn Images On Monday, Ryan Glasspiegel of Front Office Sports (FOS) confirmed that the amount is inaccurate. "A source tells Front Office Sports that this number, which is about twice what Charles Barkley makes per year from TNT, is inaccurate. NBC declined to comment," Glasspiegel wrote. Despite the NBA's coverage moving on from TNT, Barkley is still under contract with the network as he prepares to work for both TNT and ESPN next season. He signed a 10-year, $210 million extension with TNT in 2022, according to FOS's Michael McCarthy. Advertisement ESPN's Stephen A. Smith was on that episode of the "PDBD Podcast" and shared he thinks Jordan will be "brutally honest" when he's on the air next season. "Let me tell you something about Michael Jordan: He's going to be brutally honest—oh, I can assure you that,' Smith said. "He's not going to be somebody who's going to be passive…The Michael Jordan I know, when talking basketball, he is as candid as it gets. He ain't trying to hurt nobody's feelings. He ain't trying to be insulting but he's going to tell you what's going on."
