'She's a wonderful human being': Arnold Schwarzenegger praises son Patrick's ex-girlfriend Miley Cyrus
Arnold Schwarzenegger has fond memories of his son Patrick Schwarzenegger's ex-girlfriend Miley Cyrus. The White Lotus actor dated the Easy Lover hitmaker, 32, between 2014 and 2015 before finding love with his fiancee Abby Champion and Arnie has revealed that the pop star was "loved" by all of the family. Quizzed on the best thing about Patrick dating Miley, the Terminator actor told Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen: "The best was that she's a wonderful, wonderful girl and human being. Very, very talented. She came up to Sun Valley when we were skiing up there and she was just such a wonderful houseguest and everything like that. "We all just loved her." Schwarzenegger insists that there were no downsides to Patrick, 31, dating such a high-profile star. The 77-year-old actor said: "She was just a really good, good person and fun to hang out with." Arnie continued: "I'm sorry it didn't work out. But Patrick, in the meantime, found another girl that he got engaged with and he's getting married to in September." Patrick played the role of Saxon Ratliff in the third season of the acclaimed TV series The White Lotus and Arnie revealed his shock at seeing his son strip nude for a scene in the HBO show. Speaking in a joint interview for Variety's Actors on Actors series, the True Lies star said: "I couldn't believe [it]. "I said to myself, 'I'm watching your show, and I'm watching your butt sticking out there.' And all of a sudden, I see the weenie. "What is going on here? This is crazy." However, the movie legend soon reminded himself that he had appeared in precious little clothing for some of his most memorable roles. Arnie said: "Then I said to myself, 'Well, Arnold, hello. You did the same thing in Conan and Terminator, so don't complain about it.' "But it was a shock to me that you were following my footsteps so closely." Patrick previously admitted that he was frustrated that some assumed that he had landed a part in The White Lotus because of his famous father. He told The Sunday Times newspaper: "I know there are people who'll say I only got this role because of who my dad is. "They're not seeing that I've had 10 years of acting classes, put on (high) school plays every week, worked on my characters for hours on end or the hundreds of rejected auditions I've been on."

Is ‘FUBAR' returning for season 3? Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on June 23, 2025, 19:30 IST Last updated June 23, 2025, 14:00 IST Alright, FUBAR fans, time to talk about that Netflix show with Arnold Schwarzenegger kicking butt and bickering with his spy daughter. Season 2 hit in 2025, and now everybody's buzzing: is Season 3 a go or a no? Here's the lowdown on what's up with FUBAR, scraped from the latest chatter. What's FUBAR All About? If you haven't binged it yet, FUBAR is this wild ride where Arnie plays Luke, a CIA dude ready to kick back and retire, only to find out his daughter Emma (Monica Barbaro) is also a secret agent. Season 1, dropped in 2023, was pure gold with explosions and dad jokes. Season 2? Kinda divisive. Some loved it, others called it a snooze. Still, fans want more. Is FUBAR Season 3 Happening? Right now, Netflix hasn't given the green light for FUBAR Season 3. There's no official word, and that's got fans on edge. A post floating around on X claimed Season 2's viewership tanked by 80% compared to Season 1, hinting the show might be on the chopping block. But hold up—there's no hard proof from Netflix or the showrunners to back that up. X posts can be shaky, so don't take them as gospel. For now, it's a waiting game. Why Could Season 3 Still Happen? Even without confirmation, there's hope for more FUBAR . Here's why: Arnold's a Big Deal : Schwarzenegger's name alone pulls in viewers. His TV comeback is a huge win for Netflix, and they might not want to let that go. Loyal Fans : People are rooting for the show. On X, one fan begged for Season 3, shouting out the cast—like Fortune Feimster—and Arnie's epic action-hero energy. Loose Ends : Season 2 left some big questions unanswered. I won't spoil it, but the finale screams for a follow-up. Netflix's Playbook: Sometimes Netflix keeps shows alive if they have a solid fanbase, even if numbers dip. FUBAR could still have enough juice for another round. What's Next? Until Netflix spills the beans, FUBAR Season 3 is up in the air. Fans can help by streaming the heck out of Seasons 1 and 2 and hyping it online. Keep an eye out for news, and fingers crossed we'll see Luke back in action.

I left my Hollywood career to become a pet grief counselor. It changed the way I think about life, loss, and money.
This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Beth Bigler, a former Hollywood development executive who gave up her film career to start a business as a pet grief counselor. It has been edited for length and clarity. It all started with my soulmate, Arnie. Arnie, my cat, was with me earthside through many of life's ups and downs — he was my absolute best friend, my truest, most loyal companion. The sun rose and set on him in my house. But when he was only 11, he got a devastating cancer diagnosis, and when that happened, I just kind of spiraled. I didn't know how I could survive living in a world without him. Fortunately for me, I found an incredible pet loss grief counselor myself. I started doing anticipatory grief work with her, and I found it deeply transformative. She really helped me understand why I was feeling so intensely, and most importantly, helped me step up so I could really show up for Arnie in his time of need. Chemotherapy worked for Arnie at first, and he went into remission, but I kept feeling a lot of anxiety around his illness, so I kept working with my counselor. At the same time, I had the opportunity to help support somebody in a waiting room at a veterinary clinic. While waiting on an appointment for Arnie, there was a woman in the waiting room whose cat had ingested some lilies — which are very toxic to cats —and she didn't have anyone with her to support her. I started talking to her and ended up staying with her the whole day, supporting her and helping her through her cat's euthanasia. That was the moment when I realized that I had a calling. I had a very clear realization that this was what I wanted to do with my life. At the time, I was working as a Hollywood executive in film and television development, so I thought this would be something I could do when I retired or maybe as a side hustle at some point. Unfortunately, just a few months after that first realization, Arnie had a new symptom, and when I took him to the vet, we discovered that he had developed a completely different aggressive cancer in a very short amount of time. There was nothing we could do, so we had to make the really difficult decision to compassionately euthanize him, and I felt completely blindsided. It was then that I thought, 'Arnie, what are we waiting for? Let's go help people through this.' I knew I needed to grieve and process what had happened, but I viewed Arnie's transition as my sign to go out and support other people who are experiencing this same pain, so I could help empower, educate, and nurture grieving animal guardians everywhere. So, I completed my certifications to become a counselor and opened my private practice, where I support individuals, couples, and families in their grief. I started my Instagram, which has been a real success, and then started writing my book, "Honoring Our Animals," and things have really rolled from there. It wasn't full-time work in the beginning, but it grew very quickly. Between grief groups and smaller sessions, I see anywhere from 30 to 60 clients a week in online appointments, and I've helped over 1,000 clients since I began. Things are so busy that I'm bringing on two additional practitioners that I've been training, so that people can also have more options about who they work with. The nice thing about my career now is that I work for myself. I'm my own boss, so it's up to me how much I want to work, which determines how much money I can make. When I worked in Hollywood, even though I loved it, I primarily worked for other people, so I was limited in my ability to do that and control my money. Very few people do this kind of work. It's extremely niche, and some people really don't understand it, but pet loss is ubiquitous. While I really appreciate everything I did earlier in my career, and I had a great time doing it, I can see that change is happening because of this new work. People are starting to look at pet loss more seriously, and it feels nice to be making a positive change in the world. I believe pet loss grief is a transformative experience. We go through a seismic shift when our soulmates transition, and we are not the same afterward. We cannot be, and there is no "return to normal." So many people I work with really struggle with that, like "Who am I now?" I know I did. If I hadn't loved Arnie so deeply and been so profoundly shaken by his loss, I don't believe I would have ever discovered this work. Now, I encourage anybody who's thinking about shifting their gears and changing careers, or just people who are grieving, to embrace the idea that you can make a change. You don't have to stay doing what you're doing, and you don't have to return to who you were before. I just want to write that permission slip for people. If they're feeling a desire to make a change, my goal is really to empower people to let that be OK. You can let your grief catalyze you into something different. I did, and it changed my life.

Arnold Schwarzenegger Says Immigrants Should Act Like Guests
Arnold Schwarzenegger has had his say on the ongoing ICE deportation crisis in Los Angeles, with people taking to the streets of LA earlier this month to campaign against the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) department's raids of numerous workplaces in the area while searching for alleged immigration violations. Hundreds of people have been detained in the raids, with LA Mayor Karen Bass previously telling reporters: 'ICE initiated enforcement actions on several workplaces. That created a sense of chaos, outrage, fear, and terror because people are very worried as to what happened to their families.'In addition, President Donald Trump ordered military force to be used against protestors, which has led to attendees being tear-gassed and arrested. In case you didn't know, Arnold served as Governor of California from 2003 to 2011 as a Republican, and during an appearance on The View on Tuesday, he was asked how he would handle the situation if he were still in power. Arnie started by saying that 'the most important thing' is to work with 'everybody,' adding: 'You have to work together with local government, the state government, and the federal government. You have to work together rather than fighting each other." He went on to say that 'immigration reform' is key going forward, explaining: 'For decades now, this country has needed immigration reform, which means we recognize the fact there's people in the south of America that want to come north to work, and we therefore should supply them with enough visas to come because we need those workers.' "Then we'd know who is here, we'd be able to get rid of the criminal elements that are here, all this stuff so we wouldn't be in the mess we're in right now,' Arnie went on.'If you want to make this country better and if you want to improve this country and improve the situation of people's lives and bring the prices down, you will go and serve the people of America," Arnold concluded. "You're a public servant, that's what you're supposed to do, and that's what I would do if I was governor." Panelist Joy Behar then asked Arnold if he had a 'visceral reaction' to videos of what ICE is doing to immigrants, considering he is an immigrant himself. If you need reminding, Arnold was born in Austria in 1947, and moved to California to fulfill his bodybuilding dream in 1968, at age 21, with the star admitting that he spoke little English when he first emigrated. 'I'm so proud and happy to [have been] embraced by the American people like that,' Arnold said in response to Joy's question. 'Imagine, I came over here at the age of 21 with absolutely nothing, and then to create a career like that? I mean, in no other country in the world could you do that.' Arnie then referenced his hugely successful bodybuilding and acting careers, as well as his political venture, before adding: 'All of this is because of America, and this is why I'm so happy to see firsthand that this is the greatest country in the world.''I'm such a proud American and a proud immigrant,' he went on. 'The key thing is, at the same time, you gotta do things legal.' "Those people that are doing illegal things in America and that are foreigners, they are not smart, because when you come to America, you're a guest, and you have to behave like a guest," Arnold explained. "When I go to someone's house and I'm a guest, then I'll do everything I can to keep things clean and to make my bed and do everything that's the right thing to do rather than committing a crime or being abusive or something like that,' he said. 'That doesn't really work in this country. Arnold went on to say that immigrants come to America "for the great opportunities America has in education, jobs, creating a family," adding that they therefore have a responsibility to 'give something back.'Panelist Whoopi Goldberg attempted to push back on Arnie's comments, telling him: '90 per cent of the people who come here are trying to do the right thing, and a lot of what's happening right now is people are getting snatched — who shouldn't be snatched — out of the country.'Sunny Hostin also refuted what he'd said, pointing out that "immigrants are much less likely to commit crimes in this country than American-born citizens." What do you make of Arnold's comments? Let me know down below.
