The rapper then performed at the WNBA All-Star game in Indianapolis that evening, playing a medley of her songs 'Let Her Cook,' 'Typa' and 'TGIF' at the Gainsbridge Fieldhouse. She surrendered to authorities at the Forsyth County Jail on Tuesday and was released shortly afterward after on a $22,260 bond. Representatives for the rapper and the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office did not immediately respond to Variety's request for comment.
Investigators said three suspects went into the home when Woods was not present and were robbing the residence when an unidentified individual inside the building fired at them. The burglars escaped and investigators do not believe they were injured.
During the investigation, officers smelled drugs and found a 'significant amount of marijuana' in a bedroom closet. Woods was charged with possession of marijuana and possession of a controlled substance.
'The homeowner is a victim of a serious crime, and we are committed to bringing the suspects to justice,' Sheriff Ron Freeman told the channel. 'At the same time, we must continue to uphold and enforce the law in all aspects of this case.'
Woods was arrested just over a year ago on DUI charges in Georgia's Gwinnett County.

Marina Mabrey's manicure is missing *those* nails and lesbians are spiraling
Outside of soccer, the WNBA may just be the most sapphic sport around, and yet fans still want more! There are lesbian WNBA players getting married and having babies, sapphic couples playing for the same team, and others who were split up by a trade. The internet can't get enough of rookie Paige Bueckers and her college baller girlfriend Azzi Fudd. Two stud lesbians took over the WNBA's All-Star weekend and charmed the pants off the nation. And a lime green dildo was just thrown onto the court of a contentious game by a fan who was doing too much. At this point, you'd be hard pressed to make the game we all know and love any more sapphic, but fans are still clamoring for confirmation that Connecticut Sun veteran Marina Mabrey is dating rookie Saniya Rivers. Fans have been shipping the Sun teammates for months now, but a new photo of Mabrey's nails have lesbians on the internet in a spiral. While getting ready on TikTok live, eagle-eyed fans clocked the star guard's 'lesbian nails.' While curling her eyelashes, Marina's long acrylic nails were on display, but followers quickly noticed that her pointer and middle finger nails were kept short. "Oh she wanted us to KNOW she's putting thoose mfkas inside her girl," one fan commented, while someone else wrote, "Are her 2 on her hand short?! Like no nail?! Lmao girlllll." Other fans pointed out that Mabrey was also wearing a silk bonnet in the video, with people in the comments calling this the 'Black girlfriend effect.' The plot thickens! This also wasn't the first time Mabrey was spotted with *those" nails missing. Could they have broken off accidentally? Sure... During the StudBudz takeover of All-Star weekend, a moment was caught on camera where the pink-haired duo told Rivers she's with a 'bad bitch' in reference to Mabrey, which fans felt was as close to a confirmation as we've gotten so far. There was also the video that went viral of Rivers and Mabrey in a pool where Mabrey can only be seen from the neck up while Rivers is behind her holding onto Mabrey and putting her weight on her injured teammate to work out her knee. The video is beyond suggestive, and fans went nuts for the intimate moment. Rivers also recently admitted that she didn't like Mabrey when they first met, but after binge-watching a show together, the two bonded and have been close ever since. 'I don't know how it happened, but hey, I'm not mad about it,' Rivers admitted during an NBC Boston interview. "I did not like her at first." Saniya Rivers talks about special bond with Marina Mabrey 🧡 Watch the full exclusive interview at the link in bio "Oh so they got a whole enemies to lovers storyline?!?!" one fan wrote in the comments. Ok, so none of this is actual confirmation, but fans are keeping their fingers (with and without nails) crossed that this is another Paige Bueckers/Azzie Fudd situation.

Two MLB Players Suspected of Gambling Ties Have Their Lockers Removed
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Major League Baseball announced Monday that Cleveland Guardians All-Star Emmanuel Clase was going on paid administrative leave while the league investigates the pitcher's connections to possible illegal betting. Clase joined Guardians teammate Luis Ortiz, who was effectively given a paid vacation while the league looks into any possible intent behind two pitches he threw that yielded suspicious prop betting activity. Originally suspended through the All-Star break, Ortiz's absence was extended through Aug. 31 to match Clase's suspension. Now, neither pitcher has a locker in the Guardians' clubhouse, according to Zack Meisel of The Athletic on Twitter/X. The lockers for Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz have been cleared out in the Guardians' clubhouse. — Zack Meisel (@ZackMeisel) August 1, 2025 More to come on this story from Newsweek Sports.

JD Vance Defends Sydney Sweeney Amid American Eagle Ad Backlash: 'Dems Are Calling People Nazis for Finding Her Attractive'
Vice President JD Vance has waded into the controversy surrounding actress Sydney Sweeney's latest campaign for American Eagle, criticizing what he calls a 'Democratic meltdown' over the ad's allegedly coded messaging. Speaking on Friday's episode of the conservative 'Ruthless' podcast, Vance delivered an incendiary rebuke of critics who have accused the campaign of playing into white supremacist aesthetics. 'My political advice to the Democrats is: continue to tell everybody who thinks Sydney Sweeney is attractive that they're a Nazi. That appears to be their actual strategy,' Vance said. 'You have a normal all-American beautiful girl doing a normal jeans ad—and they've managed to unhinge themselves over it.' Vance's comments come amid a swirl of online discourse over a series of American Eagle ads featuring Euphoria star Sweeney. The campaign, which launched last week, features playful wordplay on 'genes' and 'jeans.' In one ad, Sweeney tells viewers, 'Genes are passed down from parents to offspring,' before smiling and clarifying, 'My jeans are blue.' Another features a billboard proclaiming 'Sydney Sweeney has great genes,' with 'genes' humorously scratched out and replaced with 'jeans.' What was intended as a lighthearted back-to-school campaign has instead exploded into a full-blown ideological clash, with critics accusing the brand of peddling a eugenicist subtext and idealizing whiteness. One now-viral MSNBC opinion piece, titled 'Sydney Sweeney's ad shows an unbridled cultural shift toward whiteness,' argued that the ad centers Sweeney's Anglo-Saxon features as a beauty standard in a way that subtly reinforces racial hierarchies. No Democratic Officials Have Actually Commented Despite the online furor, CNN White House producer Alejandra Jaramillo clarified in a report Thursday morning that 'no prominent Democratic Party leaders or officials have commented on the ad.' The backlash, she notes, appears to be coming primarily from progressive commentators on social media and in opinion columns, not from the Democratic establishment. Still, that didn't stop Vance from seizing the moment to score political points. 'So much of the Democrats' identity is oriented around hostility to basic American life,' Vance continued. 'You have a pretty girl doing a jeans ad and they can't help but freak out. It reveals a lot more about them than it does us.' The vice president, who has leaned heavily into culture war issues since taking office alongside President Donald Trump in January, framed the ad uproar as emblematic of a broader 'liberal obsession with policing beauty and tradition.' 'I actually thought one of the lessons [Democrats] might take from the November 2024 election was, 'We're going to be less crazy,'' Vance said. 'But no—the lesson they've apparently taken is, 'We're going to attack people as Nazis for thinking Sydney Sweeney is beautiful.' Great strategy, guys.' White House Spokesman Weighs In Earlier this week, White House spokesman Steve Cheung also slammed the backlash to the Sweeney ads, calling it 'cancel culture run amok.' 'This warped, moronic and dense liberal thinking is a big reason why Americans voted the way they did in 2024,' Cheung posted on X. 'They're tired of this bullshit.' His post included a screenshot of the controversial MSNBC headline and ignited further conservative support for the actress and the brand. Sweeney herself has remained silent amid the uproar, choosing instead to continue posting promotional clips from the campaign across her social platforms. American Eagle has not issued a formal comment on the backlash but continues to run the ads on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, where they have garnered millions of views.
