Amber Heard thanks her 'supporters' as she wraps latest acting project after Johnny Depp trial fallout
Amber Heard took to Instagram on Saturday to thank her fans as she wraps her final performance of her play Spirit of the People. The 39-year-old superstar — who showed off her toned physique on Friday — posed with multiple bouquets of flowers and added a sentimental caption. 'Thank you to all of my fans and supporters for making this already unforgettable weekend so much more beautiful,' she wrote to her five million followers. Amber added: 'The flowers won't last forever but the memories of all the love and support I received through this will.' She has spent the past several weeks performing at the Williamstown Theater Festival in Massachusetts. Earlier this week the Texas-bred star was showered with support from fans on Instagram as she shared a glowing selfie. Reflecting on her imminent final performance, she captioned the image, 'Lucky to be stealing one final breath before this weekend's final performances. Last chance to see Spirit of the People at @wtfestival!' Her fans expressed their excitement about her comeback in her comments section. 'Amber! We're so proud of you!!!', wrote one person, while another said, 'Wish I could see the play again! You were absolutely incredible in it ❤️❤️❤️ I hope you have a great final weekend with the festival!' Another person gushed, 'Getting to see you live was literally one of the best moments of my life, you're amazing!!' Other notes read, 'Our queen is THRIVING', and 'Beautiful as always and mastering your craft. Keep glowing and growing. ❤️' Three years ago Amber resolved her bitter court case with ex-husband Johnny Depp. She made a sensational return to acting last month, following the birth of her twins in May and her widely publicized defamation trial with ex Johnny. After stepping back into the spotlight, the Hollywood siren was cast as Genevieve in Jeremy O. Harris' play. Amber was previously wed to Pirates of The Caribbean star Johnny from 2015 to 2017, and they were involved in a high-profile defamation trial in 2022. She was ordered to pay the actor $10 million in compensatory damages and $350,000 in punitive damages, which she argued she didn't have. The jury awarded the actress $2 million in compensatory damages for her countersuit against Johnny. She is now a mother-of-three, as she has four-year-old daughter Oonagh in addition to her newborn twins — daughter Agnes and son Ocean.

Justin Bieber shares cryptic four-word post after he admitted to 'extremely selfish' behavior
Justin Bieber appeared online Saturday evening to share a vague post with his 294 million Instagram followers. The 31-year-old Canadian music artist — who gave fans a glimpse into his mansion on Friday — shared a closeup black and white selfie and added a cryptic caption. 'Broke another olive branch,' he wrote, along with a single dove emoji. The Yummy hitmaker didn't add any context, but he could be hinting at ending another friendship after a post shared by him in June included screenshots from a heated text exchange with a former buddy. In February a rep for the star told TMZ he's had a 'very transformative' past year, in which 'he ended several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him.' Just days ago the singer admitted to 'selfish' behavior in another social media caption. Engaging his online audience, he wrote, 'Let's have a good day, let's go outside. Get in nature.' Then he wrote, 'Thanking Jesus for his patience with me this morning. I can be extremely selfish and impatient yet Jesus always has his arms open toward me.' Justin released his surprise seventh studio album, SWAG, to great fanfare on July 11. Several songs make mention of his public persona, personal struggles, and his commitment to his wife Hailey and their baby son Jack Blues, who will turn one this month. There is also a theme of interludes featuring comedian Druski, in which Justin engages in candid 'therapy sessions' with the social media star. Rumors have recently circulated that the music sensation will tour Australia following the album release. Justin has not confirmed whether he will be touring, nor has Frontier Touring, who told Rolling Stone it had no information on any potential Australian tour dates. The hitmaker previously cancelled his Justice world tour in 2022 for health reasons. On Friday the Honest crooner gave his Instagram followers a peek inside the $26 million Beverly Hills mansion he shares with wife Hailey Bieber. He shared a brief reel as he joined the 'slide city' internet challenge inspired by a lyric from his hit song Yukon. Justin was dressed in red basketball shorts and a white T-shirt as he slid across his hardwood kitchen floor in a pair of knit socks. Hailey, 28, made a cameo appearance as she was shown in the background wearing black leggings and a black pullover sweatshirt.

The wrestling legend died at the age of 71 last month after suffering a cardiac arrest at his home in Clearwater, Florida. Emergency services rushed him to a local hospital but the WWE icon was ultimately declared dead. In the days that followed, tributes from friends, family and fans poured in for Hogan - including a heartbreaking post from his son, Nick.

The WWE icon's son appeared to fight back tears as he put his hands together - in a 'prayer' gesture - before then clapping back to the audience who cheered him on. The WWE played Hogan's classic theme song 'Real American' at the conclusion of a video package - which was a real tearjerker for any wrestling fan. Just six days earlier, Nick stood alongside WWE stars past and present for a 10-bell salute to his father during the company's Monday Night RAW show.
