Anthony Anderson's Home Broken Into by 3 Men
Originally appeared on E! Online Anthony Anderson was the victim of a home invasion. Authorities confirmed to NBC Los Angeles that three men broke into the Black-ish star's Encino home May 18 at around 11 p.m. It is still unclear if anything was taken, police told the outlet. While law enforcement sources were able to confirm the affected home was owned by Anderson—who shares two adult children Kyra, 28, and Nathan, 25, with ex Alvina Stewart—they did not share whether anyone was home at the time of the break-in. The investigation into the break-in is ongoing, and arrests connected to the case have not yet been made, authorities told NBC Los Angeles. E! News has reached out to Anderson's rep and police for further comment but has not yet heard back. Anderson is not the first celebrity that has recently dealt with this kind of crime. In fact, athletes like Travis Kelce, Patrick Mahomes and Joe Burrow all had their homes broken into in 2024. In February, authorities arrested seven Chilean nationals in connection to the athletes' burglaries, estimating that more than $2 million worth of property was taken from the football players' homes. tk More from E!

Bilson, for her part, recently detailed the conversation she had with Neiers and Tamyo after she had them as guests on her podcast in 2022, over 10 years after the robberies. 'I'm old enough and grown past it enough, you were a kid,' Bilson explained. 'Like, you want to talk about it—fine. I'm not gonna be like, 'Oh, it's cool whatever,' but I wasn't going to give them a hard time either. It was kind of just like, 'Sure, say your piece. That's fine.' You were kids but it was so f--ked up. There's no way around that.' Indeed, Partridge also explained the ramifications of her own home robbery in a 2022 Netflix documentary. 'After my house was broken into,' she said in The Real Bling Ring: Hollywood Heist. "I was the most terrified I've ever been in my entire life."

Adidas-Puma family feud to be featured in TV series set in Germany
Hollywood-based film producer No Fat Ego is backing the project, which has the blessing of the family behind the Adidas empire founded by Adolf "Adi" Dassler. It will delve into one of the most fascinating fraternal blow-ups in corporate history, which pitted Adi against his brother Rudolf ("Rudi") who went on to create rival Puma. The two men jointly ran a family-owned footwear company before falling out during World War II, with their post-conflict animus splitting their town of Herzogenaurach to this day. Scriptwriter Mark Williams, behind the hit Netflix series "Ozark", has been hired to lead the project and is currently going through Dassler family home videos and memorabilia to work on the story. "Everybody knows the brands, but the story behind them is something we don't really fully know," Williams told AFP at the Cannes film festival. One of the most sensitive areas -- particularly for the reputations of the multi-billion-dollar footwear companies today -- will be how the brothers are portrayed during the war period. Both became members of the Nazi party in the 1930s, as was customary for the business elite at the time. READ ALSO: How is Germany responding to Kanye West's 'Heil Hitler' single? Rudi went to fight, however, and was arrested by Allied forces on his return to a defeated Germany. "Adi stayed home and tried to keep the company alive," Williams added. Their factory was seized as part of the war effort and converted into a munitions plant. The series promises to be a "Succession-type drama between the family" set over several generations, Williams explained, comparing it to the earlier hit HBO series.

No Fat Ego intends to develop the series with full editorial independence before offering it to streaming platforms. "We want to have the creative control, and Mark has to have absolute silence and quiet to do what he does," Juul told AFP.
