Anna Delvey Bunny Photoshoot Controversy Explained
Last week, Anna 'Delvey' Sorokin shared a series of now-viral photos from an outdoor shoot with live bunnies. Anna — who was found guilty in 2019 of multiple fraud charges, including second-degree grand larceny and theft of services, after pretending to be a wealthy German heiress — held the two rabbits on a leash as she posed around New York and flaunted her ankle monitor. This sparked a heap of backlash under Anna's post, with several internet users calling her out for using the animals as 'photo props' and allegedly 'dumping' them right afterwards. Now, Anna has addressed the uproar in a lengthy Instagram statement. 'As many of you are aware, I recently did a shoot with Jasper Soloff involving live rabbits. Christian Batty, a member of the hair team I briefly met during a fashion week event last year, responded that he knew someone who could lend us bunnies for a few hours,' she wrote. 'I later discovered that, instead of borrowing animals from a legitimate source like he claimed, he had obtained them via Facebook Marketplace and intended to release them into Prospect Park, a plan of which I had no knowledge. The idea that someone would compromise the well-being of innocent animals for personal networking opportunities is deeply disturbing to me,' Anna claimed. Anna later shared a series of alleged screenshots of texts between herself, Christian, Jasper, and publicist Kelly Cutrone. In the alleged messages, Jasper appeared to ask Christian if the rabbits they used were the same animals that were abandoned, to which Christian seemingly admitted that he had 'dumped' the bunnies. 'I was panicking with bunnies. That's the reason I dumped them,' he allegedly wrote after claiming that the original owners of the rabbits had 'blocked' him when he attempted to contact them to return them after the shoot. We'll keep you posted if anything else unfolds. Let us know what you think in the comments.

You need to see these 'Reacher' season 4 set photos — Alan Ritchson's new love interest revealed
"Reacher" is undeniably one of the biggest hits for Prime Video. The first three seasons have been critically and commercially successful for the streaming service — I loved season 3 when I reviewed it here at Tom's Guide — and it wasn't surprising when the show was officially renewed for season 4. Now, with production in full swing, we've gotten a first look at a major cast member. Via @rikiwichman, a fan account on Instagram, we finally got a first look at Sydelle Noel, who has joined the "Reacher" season 4 cast as Tamara Green. They initially posted the announcement back on June 18 when Noel was officially added to the cast, but revised the post yesterday (Aug. 11), complete with new set photos of Noel as Green (via Getty Images). A post shared by Riki Wichman (@rikiwichman) A photo posted by on The set photos of Sydelle smartly dressed in a professional yet functional outfit don't reveal much about her character, but her character's name reveals everything. That's because Tamara Green was originally Theresa Lee, and that means she's Alan Ritchson's love interest for season 4. For those less familiar with "Reacher," they're based on the "Jack Reacher" novel series by Lee Child, and that means if we know what book a season is based on, then we know a decent amount about what to expect from a given season. We know season 4 is based on the novel "Gone Tomorrow," thanks to an Alan Ritchson post on Instagram a few months ago. And in that installment of the series, Jack Reacher's love interest is none other than NYPD detective Theresa Lee. A post shared by Alan Ritchson (@alanritchson) A photo posted by on That makes this first look a pretty major one for "Reacher" season 4, as past love interests — Roscoe Conklin (Willa Fitzgerald), Serinda Swan (Karla Dixon) and Susan Duffy (Sonya Cassidy) — all played major roles in their given seasons, arguably costarring alongside Ritchson. So definitely don't expect this to be the last you see of Tamara Green between now and the "Reacher" season 4 release on Prime Video. So far, we know that "Reacher" season 4 will bring back Alan Ritchson as the titular, mammoth Jack Reacher, a former U.S. Army military police major whose skills allow him to solve any case and kick any butt. We also know that season 4 will be adapting "Gone Tomorrow," which has Reacher drawn into a deadly game against dangerous people after a fraught, chance encounter with a stranger on a train.

Only Ritchson as Reacher and Maria Sten as Frances Neagley have appeared in all three seasons to date. Of course, we know Noel will be a major part of the season 4 cast as Reacher's love interest, Green, but we also know a few other cast members joining this season. Christopher Rodriguez-Marquette is playing Jacob Merrick, a small-town police officer with a big role in season 4. Jay Baruchel was originally cast as Merrick but had to leave for personal reasons. Rodriguez-Marquette, Ritchson and Noel are joined by Agnez Mo and Anggun as Lila and Amisha Hoth, who we are expecting to be the villains this season. Kevin Corrigan is playing Green's partner, NYPD Detective Docherty, Marc Blucas is politician John Samson and Kathleen Robertson is his wife, Elsbeth. Kevin Weisman is also on board as Russell Plum, the lone character that, as far as we can tell, isn't in the novel "Gone Tomorrow." The big question that remains? Will Sten return for a fourth season as Neagley? I hope so, but there's nothing official yet. She might be too busy with her "Reacher" spin-off, "Neagley," which is currently in production. Malcolm has been with Tom's Guide since 2022 and has been covering the latest in streaming shows and movies since 2023. He's not one to shy away from a hot take, including that "John Wick" is one of the four greatest films ever made. Here's what he's been watching lately:
