Bill Belichick's girlfriend to compete in Miss Maine USA pageant
The former New England Patriots coach's 24-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, shared to her Instagram on April 10 that she will be competing in the Miss Maine USA pageant this spring. Though Hudson grew up in Massachusetts, she was born in Hancock, Maine, the town which she will be representing in the pageant. Hudson shared that she hopes to use her voice to represent local Maine fishermen.
"As the daughter of displaced fishermen, I care to use my voice to protect the fleeting tradition and heritage of Maine fishing families, to prevent others from going through the same plight as what mine had to go through," Hudson wrote on Instagram, adding the hashtag #BornForThis.
Hudson grew up in Provincetown, attending Nauset Regional High School, where she was a cheerleader. According to her Instagram, Hudson continued cheering at Bridgewater State University, with her team winning a National Cheerleaders Association Collegiate Championship in 2021.
Along with completing her Bachelor's Degree in Philosophy, Hudson completed a professional cosmetology license at New England Hair Academy, where she was dually enrolled during her senior year of high school and freshman year of college. Today, Hudson works as the executive director of Trouble Club Enterprises.

"The WNBA don't pay for my bills" - Angel Reese said her WNBA salary is not even enough to pay for her personal expenses
"The WNBA don't pay for my bills" - Angel Reese said her WNBA salary is not even enough to pay for her personal expenses originally appeared on Basketball Network. When she entered the WNBA, Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese was already one of the most popular women's basketball players in the United States. Despite that, the WNBA salary scale meant that she had to accept a maximum contract of $324,383, which is good for four WNBA seasons to play for the Sky. With an average salary of $81,096 per season and a $73,749 actual pay check for her rookie WNBA campaign in 2024, the former LSU star made it clear that long after the likes of WNBA legends Diana Taurasi and Sue Bird played overseason during the offseason to augment their incomes, league salary in the WNBA was still incredibly too low. "I just hope y'all know," Reese said on Instagram Live, "The WNBA don't pay my bills at all. I don't even think it pays one of my bills. Literally. I'm living beyond my means." Her annual rent alone exceeds her WNBA income After she was drafted by the Sky, Reese chose to stay at a loft-style apartment in Chicago's South Loop area. The high-rise abode has stunning views of the city skyline and Lake Michigan. It also has upscale amenities such as a gym, indoor pool, and basketball court, among others. Reese went on to mention that she spends $8,000 per month on rent expenses alone. If we multiply that by 12 months, that's $96,000 per year, which is by itself already more than what she makes per season from her WNBA contract. "That check that I do get here is a bonus," Reese said at the start of her rookie season. "Being able to play for what, four to five months, and get $75,000 on top of the other endorsements that I'm doing, I think it's a plus for me."No need to play overseas However, the thing with Reese is that, regardless of how much money she would make in the WNBA, she would get paid handsomely one way or the other. As one of college basketball's top female stars, Angel had an NIL valuation of $1.8 million before she even entered the WNBA, owing to deals with the likes of Reebok, Topps, Airbnb, Tampax, Hershey's Reese candy, and Beats by Dre. Aside from her endorsements, Reese also played for the 3-on-3 league Unrivaled, which paid players six-figure salaries ranging from $100K to $250K. Although it wasn't revealed how much she made from the league, Angel's Rose Basketball Club won the inaugural title, which earned her an additional $50,000 championship bonus. Although Angel will not make more than $93,636 until at least the 2027 WNBA season, she is surely not worried about paying her $8,000 monthly rent in Chicago or even living beyond her means if she wants to. That's because with the amount of money she makes on the side, Reese earns more than enough to sustain her personal needs. While the WNBA salary continues to be an issue today between the players and the league, top stars like Angel are no longer forced to spend the WNBA offseason playing overseas just to make ends meet, as Taurasi and Bird did during their story was originally reported by Basketball Network on Aug 19, 2025, where it first appeared.

Taylor Swift Film Premiere Rumors Spark a Response From the Vancouver International Film Festival
THE RUNDOWN Taylor Swift won't be premiering her film yet. Rumors began to swirl after the Vancouver International Film Festival's Instagram account announced this year's film lineup by posting a blurred photo with a sparkly orange lock over it, very similar to how Swift teased her upcoming album, The Life of a Showgirl. The caption read, '...Ready for it? The #VIFF2025 full festival lineup will be revealed on August 27.' Speculation intensified when, days earlier, Taylor Nation posted on X, 'We can't find the key! Lost it in Vancouver #TSTheLifeofaShowgirl' But alas, the two posts aren't connected. After Swifties convinced themselves the singer might premiere a film at the festival, VIFF updated its caption with a disclaimer: 'There will be no Taylor Swift documentary debuting at VIFF. Earlier today we saw the viral TikTok video with the prediction and were honored to even be in the Easter egg discussion. However, we're so excited to show you what's coming to #VIFF2025. Hope there's no 'Bad Blood.'' In 2022, it was announced that Swift would direct her first feature film in partnership with Searchlight Pictures. At the time, the studio said in a statement, 'Taylor is a once-in-a-generation artist and storyteller. It is a genuine joy and privilege to collaborate with her as she embarks on this exciting and new creative journey.' There have been no updates on the film's production. However, in August 2025, fans noticed that a 'Directed Projects' section appeared on Swift's website, which includes the music videos that she's directed, like 'Anti-Hero,' 'Fortnight,' and 'All Too Well: The Short Film.'
