Nick Reiner's former attorney Alan Jackson doubles down after quitting murder case: 'He's not guilty'
High-profile defense attorney Alan Jackson is standing firm on his courthouse remarks declaring Nick Reiner "not guilty" - even after stepping away from the case. After withdrawing Wednesday from representing the youngest son of filmmaker Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, Jackson is doubling down on his statement."You gave an endorsement and resignation at the same time," Billy Bush said during an exchange with Jackson on his "Hot Mics" podcast. WHO IS ALAN JACKSON? FROM PHIL SPECTOR TO NICK REINER, THE LAWYER AT THE CENTER OF HOLLYWOOD'S DARKEST DRAMAS Jackson didn't disagree or soften his stance."It was important for me to right some wrongs that had been printed - lots and lots of speculation, lots of people who want to believe certain things," he said. "So with that statement, that's as far as I'm going to go. I believe in it. I believe exactly what I said. What I said is the truth. Under the laws of the state of California , he's not guilty. And it was important for me to make sure that the public understood that as I had to step away."Jackson formally withdrew from the case on Jan. 7. Reiner is now represented by a public defender and is scheduled to be arraigned Feb. 23.Bush continued to press Jackson on the case. LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING?

ROB REINER'S SON NICK WAS 'DARK, TWISTED' YEARS BEFORE PARENTS' DEATHS: FORMER CO-WORKER Jackson remained tight-lipped about the specifics during the podcast."That's a confidential communication between a lot of folks that I'm not willing to disclose," he said.As the conversation continued, Bush suggested that Jackson appeared visibly conflicted at that moment during the interview. The host raised the possibility that something had gone wrong behind the scenes."Look, I know you well enough to know when you're pissed off, and I'm looking at your body language there," Bush said. "You're emphatic in your support of Nick and that he's not guilty in this situation. But I also see that you're not happy. So what ... well, something happened with the retainer or something ... Is it a money thing?"Jackson immediately pushed back."I mean, you can't say that. You can't say that, Billy. You can't say that something happened with the retainer because I've never said that," he responded.Jackson acknowledged only that circumstances changed - without elaboration. NICK REINER BELIEVES HE'S A VICTIM OF 'CONSPIRACY' WHILE IN JAIL FOR PARENTS' MURDERS: DOCUMENTARY "So obviously something happened with my ability and my team's ability to continue the representation, but I don't want you, your audience, anybody else to start speculating as to what that might be. I have not said a word about it," he said.When Bush told him that people are going to speculate regardless, Jackson remained adamant that the reason for his withdrawal is ultimately irrelevant to the legal point he wanted to make public.

And that's also true, and that's not going to change. But I'm not going to get into the specifics of why it was necessary for me to withdraw," Jackson said.Last week, Jackson cited circumstances beyond his and Nick's control as to why he decided to step down from the case."Circumstances beyond our control, but more importantly, circumstances beyond Nick's control have dictated that," Jackson said during a press conference outside the courthouse. "Sadly, it's made it impossible for us to continue our representation of Nick. I'm legally, and I'm ethically prohibited from explaining all the reasons why."Jackson was adamant that Nick was "not guilty" of murdering his parents."We've investigated this matter top to bottom, back to front," Jackson said. "What we've learned - and you can take this to the bank - is that pursuant to the laws of this state, pursuant to the law in California, Nick Reiner is not guilty of murder." Nick, 32, was charged in December with two counts of first-degree murder in the stabbing deaths of his parents, who were found dead inside their Brentwood home on Dec. 14.Authorities said Reiner was arrested hours later near the University of Southern California. He remains in custody at the Twin Towers Correctional Facility and faces a possible sentence of life in prison without parole or the death penalty.A spokesperson for the Reiner family told Fox News Digital at the time that they have "the utmost trust in the legal process" and declined further comment.

Saturday I got in the car, drove 2,000 miles to Albuquerque. I'm gonna confront these lies. They're horrible.""They're all lies and I did not do anything to those little boys and I'm gonna fight it," he continued. "I'm gonna fight it with a great team, and I'm gonna be exonerated, I know I am, because this is all so wrong and all lies."

"I love everybody for supporting me, thank you."On Monday, the U.S. Marshals stepped in, taking over efforts to locate and apprehend the actor. "Albuquerque Police Department is working with the U.S. Marshal Service to get Mr. Busfield into custody," APD spokesperson Gilbert Gallegos told Fox News Digital on Tuesday of the DOJ's primary agency for fugitive investigations.On Jan. 9, an arrest warrant for the director and Emmy Award-winning actor, obtained by Fox News Digital, was issued. An investigator with the Albuquerque Police Department filed a criminal complaint in support of the charge, which says a child reported that Busfield touched him inappropriately. LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS The alleged acts - which allegedly happened when the child was 7 years old - occurred on the set of "The Cleaning Lady," a TV series Busfield directed and acted in. Busfield allegedly touched the child three or four times, and again, another five or six times when the child was 8."The health and safety of our cast and crew is always our top priority, especially the safety of minors on our productions," a representative from Warner Bros. Television told Fox News Digital in a statement. "We take all allegations of misconduct very seriously and have systems in place to promptly and thoroughly investigate, and when needed, take appropriate action. We are aware of the current charges against Mr. Busfield and have been and will continue to cooperate with law enforcement." CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER The police investigation into the allegations against Busfield began on Nov. 1, 2024, after a doctor at the University of New Mexico Hospital alerted officers about a case of alleged sexual abuse.According to an arrest warrant obtained by Fox News Digital, two 11-year-old twins allege that the director, whom they were told to call Uncle Tim on the set of "The Cleaning Lady," touched them inappropriately. One twin claimed an incident occurred while alone with Busfield in a bedroom on set, alleging he was touched over his clothes on his genitals and bottom. The warrant further states that hospital professionals later informed the parents that the children showed signs of being "groomed."The boys also alleged that Busfield would "tickle them on the stomach and legs" while on set with them. One of the boys was diagnosed with moderate PTSD and anxiety following his claims of "inappropriate touching." The boy said he had been "having nightmares about the director touching him and waking up scared," and alleged Busfield "had touched and rubbed his penis 3 or 4 times and appeared to be ashamed," the warrant stated.In an interview before his arrest, Busfield allegedly told police he had heard the parents wanted "revenge" against him because their boys had been replaced by someone younger for the final season of the show, which ran from 2022 until 2025. When investigators asked Busfield if he had ever picked up the children, he allegedly admitted it was "highly likely that he would have." He defended the behavior by saying he wanted to foster a "playful" environment on set, adding that such interactions would have occurred in front of their parents."There would never be a weird moment about it," Busfield told police, according to the warrant. "I don't really remember picking those boys up. I remember picking up the boy who followed them. I'd pick him up, and he'd be giggling, and that would sort of get him ready to act."Busfield said that he and his wife, Melissa Gilbert, had a relationship with the boys and their family outside of the show before the children were cast, had seen them at social gatherings and had even purchased Christmas presents for the boys, according to the warrant.Police interviewed numerous people during the investigation, including a witness who claimed to have seen an incident in the hair and make-up trailer in which executive producer and director "Tim Busfield entered and kissed a minor male on the face as the minor was getting a haircut." "In my training and experience, pedophiles often infiltrate families under a trusted role, like Timothy, who, as a producer, exploited the hectic film sets to tickle and touch SL on his penis and buttocks, masking it as play," an officer wrote in the warrant. Busfield's wife, "Little House on the Prairie" actress Melissa Gilbert , reportedly deleted her Instagram account after the arrest warrant was issued. Gilbert's representative told Fox News Digital that the actress will continue to support her husband and will address the public at the appropriate time. "Melissa Gilbert is not making public statements at this time. Any purported 'statements' circulating online - including AI-generated deepfakes of her 'breaking her silence' - should not be treated as coming from her," her representative said. "She is honoring the request of Tim's lawyers not to speak publicly while the legal process unfolds. During this period, her focus is on supporting and caring for their very large family, as they navigate this moment. Melissa stands with and supports her husband and will address the public at an appropriate time. We ask that their privacy be respected."Gilbert and Busfield married in 2013. In a statement shared with Fox News Digital, Busfield's civil attorney, Stanton "Larry" Stein, said, "This morning, Tim voluntarily appeared before New Mexico authorities after traveling across the country to confront these false and deeply troubling allegations. He is innocent and is determined to clear his name."Stein continued: "As reflected in the criminal complaint, after her son was terminated from the show, the boy's mother vowed to 'get her revenge against Timothy Busfield.' What followed appears to be a calculated effort to construct a case, driven by animus not fact, despite prior investigations finding no evidence of wrongdoing.""The claims being made against Tim are completely false, and we will fight this to the end until the truth prevails," he added. He also included a statement from Christina McGovern, who he said was the independent outside investigator retained by Warner Brothers to examine the allegations of on-set misconduct. "I conducted an independent and thorough investigation of all allegations known to the Studio at the time," McGovern said. "Warner Bros. gave me full discretion as to my investigation. Based on what was alleged, and all evidence gathered, including multiple witness statements, I found no corroborating evidence that Mr. Busfield engaged in inappropriate conduct or that he was ever alone with the twins on set."

'Dilbert' creator Scott Adams receiving hospice care, health declining 'rapidly,' ex-wife says
"Dilbert" creator Scott Adams is in hospice care at his Northern California home as his health declines "rapidly" amid his battle with prostate cancer , his ex-wife said.Shelly Miles, who was married to the cartoonist from 2006 to 2014, told TMZ that Adams had begun receiving "end-of-life care" at his home last week.Miles said that she, her sister and Adams' stepdaughter Savannah, along with nurses, have been caring for him.Earlier this month, Adams shared a health update on his podcast "Real Coffee with Scott Adams." 5 CELEBRITIES WHO WENT PUBLIC WITH ALARMING HEALTH DIAGNOSES IN 2025 "I talked to my radiologist yesterday, and it's all bad news - the odds of me recovering are essentially zero," he said. "I'll give you any updates if that changes, but it won't.""So there's no chance that I'll get my feeling back in my legs, and I've got some ongoing heart failure , which is making it difficult to breathe sometimes during the day," the cartoonist continued. "However, you should prepare yourself that January will probably be a month of transition, one way or another." BIDEN 'RANG THE BELL' AFTER COMPLETING RADIATION THERAPY FOR PROSTATE CANCER Adams first announced his prostate cancer diagnosis on his show in May, saying that he was in pain every day and had been using a walker for months."If you're wondering if I'll get better, the answer is no, it will only get worse," he said at the time. "There's only one direction this goes."In November, Adams posted a plea to President Donald Trump for help in scheduling a cancer drug treatment that he believed could prolong his life.Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. responded to Adams' viral post, asking how to reach him."The President wants to help," RFK Jr. wrote.Adams began writing and illustrating the Dilbert comic strip in 1989. Hundreds of newspapers pulled Dilbert in early 2023, after he made racially charged comments during his show. He then launched a new, online subscription-based version called "Dilbert Reborn," which he describes on his website as "uncensored and spicier."

Snoop Dogg proves he's still in Hollywood's good graces despite Trump controversy
Snoop Dogg showed he remains a fixture in Hollywood's inner circle after his commanding appearance at the 2026 Golden Globes - despite facing backlash surrounding his performance at a ball linked to President Donald Trump's inauguration. The 54-year-old legendary rapper, who has also publicly praised Trump, was met with applause and cheers - and notably no boos - when he took the stage at the Beverly Hilton on Sunday night.Snoop Dogg, who presented the first-ever award for best podcast, walked out while his 2004 hit "Drop It Like It's Hot" played before taking his place behind the microphone. SNOOP DOGG PRAISES DONALD TRUMP: 'NOTHING BUT LOVE AND RESPECT' "Stop the music!" Snoop Dogg called out as the audience laughed."I need y'all to loosen up a little bit. This is the double-G's, the double-G's, it's the Golden Globes, and you're with the D-O-double-G," Snoop Dogg said. "So, make sure you enjoy yourself, don't be no stiff biff! Move around a little bit!""Best Podcast is a very important category for me, because, before podcasts, I was what y'all would listen to driving around in your cars. To you podcasters, you better hope I don't get in that game," he joked to more laughter and cheers from the crowd. "Roll the tape!" Snoop Dogg exclaimed before a highlight reel of the best podcast nominees played. After the video concluded, Snoop Dogg said, "Shout-out to the Golden Globes for putting the podcast category in this awards show. And shout-out to all of the podcasters." "You all are winners, but the real winner is...." he quipped.The "Let It Roll" hitmaker then dropped an expletive in a portion of his speech that was cut from the live broadcast of the show."I'm high as a motherf---er right now," Snoop Dogg admitted, according to Entertainment Weekly. "Y'all had me here too damn long!" he added.Snoop Dogg then opened the envelope and revealed that Amy Poehler's "Good Hang" podcast had won the award.Poehler beamed as she accepted the statuette and took a moment to share her excitement over receiving the award from Snoop Dogg. "This is exactly how I pictured it: Snoop giving me the award," the "Saturday Night Live alum" said. "I don't know about award shows, but when they get it right, it makes sense."Following her speech, Poehler and Snoop Dogg walked off the stage arm-in-arm. Another award recipient who was thrilled by Snoop Dogg's appearance was "Adolescence" star Stephen Graham, who scored his first Golden Globe when he won best performance by a male actor in a limited series, anthology series or a motion picture made for television. During an interview with reporters following his win, Graham admitted that he was starstruck after meeting the hip-hop icon earlier in the night. "I met Snoop Dogg, and he shook my hand," Graham said, according to People magazine. "He looked me right in the eyes. Couldn't see his eyes because he had his glasses on. Then he just said, 'You're a motherf---ing gangster.'" "My life is complete," he added. "Thank you."Social media and media outlets hailed Snoop Dogg's appearance as one of the top viral moments of the night. The rapper was widely praised for the unpredictable energy that he brought to the awards ceremony with his blend of humor, swagger and off-the-cuff commentary. Snoop Dogg's warm reception at the Golden Globes, both by the celebrities in the room and the viewers at home, underscored his enduring hold on pop culture - despite coming after the rapper's controversial connection to Trump and comments about the two-time president.In January 2025, Snoop Dogg performed at the Crypto Ball, a high-profile event held during Donald Trump's inauguration weekend. His appearance drew significant backlash from fans, the hip-hop community and commentators.Some labeled Snoop Dogg a "sell-out" and accused the rapper of abandoning his values due to his past criticism of Trump. Years after Snoop appeared on Trump's reality show " The Apprentice " in 2007, he mocked the real estate magnate in a music video. In his video for his 2017 song "Lavender," Snoop depicted Trump as a clown and shot the president in the head. Snoop was also one of the roasters who took aim at Trump during the 2011 "Comedy Central Roast of Donald Trump." The Death Row Records owner earned laughs after he delivered jokes about Trump's presidential ambitions and personal life. In 2017, Snoop Dogg criticized entertainers who would perform at Trump's first inauguration. "So ain't no one gonna perform for Donald Trump, huh?" Snoop said in an Instagram video. "Which one of you [will] be the first one to do it?""I'm waiting," he added. "I'm gonna roast the f--- out of one of you."During a 2018 appearance on DJ Suss One's SiriusXM show, Snoop Dogg went on an expletive-laden rant against Trump supporters, who he suggested were racist, per People magazine. During a 2020 appearance on " Big Boy's Neighborhood on Real 92.3," Snoop argued Trump shouldn't be in office. "I ain't never voted a day in my life, but this year I think I'm going to get out and vote because I can't stand to see this punk in office one more year," Snoop Dogg said. Snoop explained he didn't believe he was allowed to vote at the time due to his criminal record. Snoop was convicted of a felony in 1990 and 2007.However, after a long history of condemning the president and his supporters, Snoop Dogg appeared to change his tune and praised the president in January 2024."Donald Trump?... He ain't done nothing wrong to me. He has done only great things for me. He pardoned Michael Harris," Snoop told The Sunday Times."So, I have nothing but love and respect for Donald Trump."Michael "Harry-O" Harris, an associate of Death Row Records co-founder Suge Knight and the founder of the label's parent company, Godfather Entertainment, was pardoned in 2021 as one of Trump's final decisions before leaving office for the first time.Harris was imprisoned on charges of conspiracy and attempted murder for over three decades."I love what they did," the rapper told the New York Post. "That's great work for the president and his team on the way out."During a May 2025 appearance on "The Breakfast Club," the rapper addressed the backlash he received over his performance at the Crypto Ball and announced that his new music was a direct response to the haters.When asked if he was bothered by the negative feedback, Snoop Dogg said he was not because he believed his performance was for a good cause."I DJ'ed at the Crypto Ball for what, 30 minutes?" he said. SNOOP DOGG PRAISES DONALD TRUMP: 'NOTHING BUT LOVE AND RESPECT' "Made a whole bunch of money, made a lot of relationships to help out the inner city and the community and teach financial literacy and crypto in a space that it don't exist," Snoop Dogg continued. "That's 30 minutes. [For] 30 years, Snoop Dogg been doing great things for the community, building, showing up, standing up for the people, making it happen, being all I can be," he added.Snoop made it clear his performance was not a Trump endorsement. JOE ROGAN'S SHOW SNUBBED FROM GOLDEN GLOBES' BEST PODCAST CATEGORY DESPITE POPULARITY "Even if I would have done it for him and hung out with him and took a picture with him, can't none of you motherf---ers tell me what I can and can't do," he said. "But I'm not a politician. I don't represent the Republican Party. I don't represent the Democratic Party. I represent the motherf---ing Gangster Party period point blank, and G s--- we don't explain s---, so that's why I didn't explain. That's why I didn't go into detail when motherf---ers was trying to cancel me and say he a sellout," he said.Snoop told "The Breakfast Club" that his album, "Iz it a Crime?," which was released in May 2025, was his direct response to the criticism he received over the months following his Crypto Ball performance."The Next Episode" rapper additionally spoke out about how he has previously dealt with negative responses after his pre-inauguration performance.

ROGER GOODELL STANDS FIRM ON BAD BUNNY SUPER BOWL HALFTIME SHOW AFTER TRUMP CALLS SELECTION 'RIDICULOUS' Recently, there was a fan-driven push for Snoop Dogg to replace Bad Bunny as the 2026 Super Bowl halftime performer after the Puerto Rican rapper's selection for the gig sparked controversy. After Bad Bunny was announced as the headliner in late September, some conservative commentators and NFL fans branded Bad Bunny as politically extreme, pointing to his past comments about U.S. immigration policy and his decision not to tour in the continental U.S. over concerns about Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER Following Snoop's popular halftime performance during the NFL's 2025 Christmas Day game, some fans began suggesting the NFL should have chosen him over Bad Bunny.

King Charles will avoid Prince Harry during UK trip over fears private talks could leak: experts
It's unlikely Prince Harry will see his father, King Charles, when he returns to his home country.The 41-year-old will be in the U.K. for a few days later this month for a court case related to his legal claim against Associated Newspapers, People magazine reported.According to the outlet, several high-profile figures, including Elton John, Elizabeth Hurley and Jude Law's ex-wife Sadie Frost, are suing the publisher of the Daily Mail and the Mail on Sunday for alleged illegal information gathering. Associated Newspapers has "vigorously" denied the allegations, the BBC reported. PRINCE HARRY, MEGHAN MARKLE FACE SLIM PATH TO RECONCILING WITH THEIR AILING FATHERS, HEAL FAMILY FEUD: EXPERTS Fox News Digital reached out to Archewell for comment. People magazine noted that Harry's upcoming trial opening has been provisionally scheduled for Jan. 19."It's important to note that King Charles does not regularly communicate with Harry," Kinsey Schofield, host of YouTube's "Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered," claimed to Fox News Digital. "The royal family views him as untrustworthy and a liability, largely due to concerns that private conversations will quickly find their way into the press. This is especially sensitive given that the king's cancer treatment is considered a deeply private matter." WATCH: KING CHARLES CAN'T GET INVOLVED IN PRINCE HARRY'S SECURITY WOES: AUTHOR Charles, who typically takes a break from public duties in January, will "almost certainly" be in Scotland when his younger son is in town, The Telegraph reported. Royal sources told the outlet that the 77-year-old has "no wish to be linked to any court proceedings.""Prince Harry is accustomed to a life built on conflict," British broadcaster and photographer Helena Chard told Fox News Digital. "He has sued the Mail on Sunday and much more, to the embarrassment of his father. He still maintains that he has been stitched up by the establishment. It's a no-brainer, and safe to say, that King Charles will not be seeing Prince Harry."In September, Harry reunited with his father for the first time in 18 months. The father of two had a private tea with the monarch at Clarence House, Fox News Digital learned. The Telegraph reported that the meeting lasted 50 minutes and was considered a major step toward reconciliation in the midst of an ongoing family rift. The outlet also noted that the relationship thawed at the time. The Guardian reported that the king and his heir, Prince William, are gearing up to visit the U.S. separately this year. Charles's visit would likely take place in April, while William will touch down later in the year during the World Cup. The visits also aim to revitalize a trade deal agreement with President Trump, the outlet shared. Fox News Digital reached out to Buckingham Palace for comment. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER Multiple U.K. outlets claimed that Harry was hopeful he would see his father as part of reconciliation efforts. However, several royal experts told Fox News Digital that such a meeting is not in the cards. "Emotional distractions aren't likely to be part of this trip, aiming to help the U.K. economically, let alone the fact that Harry can't be trusted," British royals expert Hilary Fordwich claimed to Fox News Digital."Nor does the family want a media circus with the optics regarding family disputes overshadowing such important state business," she pointed out."Security and logistics for any royal visit to a private home would be complicated, hence being extremely rare. And Prince William having anything to do with his wayward brother is far more unlikely. He's far less sentimental than his father and is known to act with his head, not his heart. He is also more focused on the long-term viability and stability of the monarchy .""Prince William and his wife Princess Catherine are no longer in contact with Harry and Meghan Markle," said Schofield. "Their focus remains firmly on their own family and responsibilities."Chard said reports suggesting that Harry hopes for a reunion in America raise more questions than they answer."Allegedly, Prince Harry is ruminating about his father, King Charles, visiting him and his family at their Montecito home," said Chard. "It isn't clear who has planted this story seed. However, it goes hand-in-hand with King Charles and Prince William heading to the States. Plus, there is non-stop chatter about the Sussex children and a security victory for Harry, paving the way for a possible reunion." LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS "Of course, King Charles would love a relationship with his grandchildren," said Chard. "However, he will not mix official business, his professional role as monarch, with Prince Harry's warped narrative."Harry has been estranged from his family since he and his wife stepped back as senior royals in 2020 and moved to California . They cited the unbearable intrusions of the British press and a lack of support from the palace as the reasons for their exit.Since settling in the wealthy coastal city of Montecito, the couple aired their grievances in interviews and documentaries. Harry's 2023 memoir, "Spare," which exposed embarrassing details about the House of Windsor, worsened his relationship with the royals. Sources close to Harry told People magazine that Charles wouldn't respond to his phone calls or letters. Experts previously told Fox News Digital that William and Harry were not on speaking terms.In October, a spokesperson for the Duke of Sussex denied reports that the prince's meeting with his father left him feeling like an "official visitor." A statement sent to People magazine read: "The quotes attributed to him are pure invention fed, one can only assume, by sources intent on sabotaging any reconciliation between father and son."Fordwich claimed that the monarch was "saddened" after Harry appeared to accuse palace insiders of sabotaging peace talks."Prince Harry's counterproductive statement definitely caused disappointment for King Charles III, who was rather surprised and saddened," Fordwich claimed at the time. "It overall makes future peace talks harder and reaffirms Prince William's skepticism." In May, Harry told the BBC that he wanted to reconcile with his family."I would love reconciliation with my family," he said at the time. "There's no point in continuing to fight anymore. I don't know how much longer my father has."Harry admitted that "some members of my family will never forgive me" for writing his memoir. He went on to say, "It would be nice to have that reconciliation part now. If they don't want that, that's entirely up to them."Schofield insisted that when it comes to initiating peace talks, the ball is in Harry's court."It would be wildly unrealistic for Harry to expect his father to travel to Montecito to see him," she explained. "Particularly, if reports are accurate, that RAVEC has reassessed Harry's security and determined he would receive automatic protection upon entering the U.K . If that's the case, then the responsibility to visit clearly lies with Harry and Meghan.""If Harry fails to use this revised security status to immediately plan a visit with his children to see his father, it will raise questions about the sincerity of his security campaign and his BBC interview performance," she added. The Times of London previously reported Harry has not spoken to his father since their reunion in September and is not in contact with the Prince and Princess of Wales. A source in London called suggestions that Harry and his father are on speaking terms "laughable."Harry has repeatedly said that he's unable to bring his family to the U.K. without security because it isn't safe.

What was really interesting is the second movie I did with him, there was this ... it builds to a head with this, a scene with me and this 9-year-old kid," Damon said. "The 9-year-old kid was a non-actor, and we had done one take for everybody, all through 'Invictus.'"We must have done 40 takes with this little boy ... we were trying to get this; it was this kind of huge moment in the film, and we were trying to get this stuff out of him. Clint was right next to me ... like, we were right next to the camera together just working with this boy."He added, "His whole mentality was ... your crew will go to the ends of the earth for you if as long as you're not taxing them on every shot. When we need to get in there, we get in there. But for the most part we can ... professional actors are gonna show up with something good. We keep the momentum."

George and Amal Clooney, two of the worst political prognosticators of all time, have officially become citizens of France which is, sadly, in the midst of a major crime problem because of their absolutely horrendous handling of immigration, much like we had under Sleepy Joe Biden ," Trump wrote on Truth Social on Dec. 31. "Clooney got more publicity for politics than he did for his very few, and totally mediocre, movies."After online chatter pointed to Clooney's subtle jab at Trump, a representative for the White House told Fox News Digital, "Nobody cares."The couple and their 8-year-old twins, Ella and Alexander, were granted citizenship , according to a naturalization decree.The Clooneys have been living in France with their children after uprooting the family to get away from the culture of Hollywood, the Academy Award-winning actor and director said in October.

I drive a tractor and all those things."In July, Amal detailed how she protects her family's privacy while constantly being in the spotlight. "Creating private moments and spaces is becoming increasingly difficult," Amal told Glamour . "But that's also why we entertain a lot at home. I now have a phone basket that I use to take everyone's phones away!""It's important to get that balance where you have time alone with your family and with your friends, where people feel like you can have a safe and frank exchange," she explained.

Monica Lewinsky says Bill Clinton 'escaped a lot more than I did' after White House scandal
Monica Lewinsky reflected on the unwanted fame she received after her affair with former President Bill Clinton was unearthed.Nearly three decades ago, Lewinsky, a former White House intern, had an affair with the former president while he was in office. Clinton subsequently had an impeachment trial that came about in December 1998.Lewinsky contemplated suicide due to the media scrutiny, and told The Times that "the public humiliation was excruciating; life was almost unbearable." MONICA LEWINSKY LEAVES CLINTON SCANDAL IN DUST, JOINS HOLLYWOOD ELITE WITH BOLD NEW LOOK, BUSINESS VENTURE While her personal fallout almost cost her life, Lewinsky believed Clinton "escaped" from overwhelming criticism more easily than she did. MONICA LEWINSKY GOES VIRAL FOR TAYLOR SWIFT-THEMED BILL CLINTON JOKE: 'THE ASYLUM WHERE THEY RAISED ME' "I haven't spoken to him in almost 30 years and I don't know what his internal landscape is," she said. "I think he escaped a lot more than I did."Clinton was 49 at the time of the incident, while Lewinsky was 22.Lewinsky maintained that their relationship was consensual, however "this was a gross abuse of power. Full stop."She added, "That doesn't mean I didn't make mistakes, that I didn't make wrong choices, that my behavior didn't hurt other people. But at the heart of it was a gross abuse of power."Following the scandal, Clinton was acquitted. After a few public appearances in an attempt to reinvent herself, Lewinsky disappeared from the spotlight in the mid-2000s.Lewinsky reclaimed some of the narrative surrounding her story and served as a producer on the FX series, "Impeachment: American Crime Story." CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER In 2018, the former president bristled at questions over whether he should have resigned over his sexual relationship with Lewinsky and whether the #MeToo movement has changed his perspective."I dealt with it 20 years ago, plus," said Clinton on NBC's "Today Show." "And the American people, two-thirds of them stayed with me. And I've tried to do a good job since then, and with my life and with my work. That's all I have to say." LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING?

The synopsis of her show states, "Every week, I'll draw from my own unique experiences (like say, surviving a global scandal at 24 years old), and delve into the personal and often messy ways people find their way back to themselves."During a February appearance on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast, Lewinsky admitted the "right way" for the former president to handle their affair going public would have been to resign."I think that the right way to handle a situation like that would have been to probably say it was nobody's business and to resign," Lewinsky told host Alex Cooper. "Or to find a way of staying in office that was not lying and not throwing a young person who is just starting out in the world under the bus."She added, "At the same time, I hear myself say that, and it's like, 'Okay, but we're also talking about the most powerful office in the world.' I don't want to be naive either."Lewinsky also reflected on the White House response, including when Clinton denied the affair by saying, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman." Cooper asked Lewinsky to reconcile what people were saying about their relationship, and what she knew to be true."It was gaslighting," she said. "I think that was what I experienced on a pretty large scale. It was devastating." Lewinsky also said that while she felt Clinton's behavior was worse, she still made her own mistakes. "Let's recognize that while there were so many ways that Bill's behavior was more reprehensible than mine, I did make mistakes," she said. Fox News Digital's Janelle Ash contributed to this report.

Maren Morris says she 'lost a lot of fans' because of her political views
Maren Morris admitted her outspoken political views came with a cost in the country music industry.Morris, 35, opened up about how the political atmosphere of country music has evolved over the past 10 years amid President Donald Trump's two terms."No one is very friendly," she noted in a lengthy TikTok video . "Some people are cool, but like, it's been very dicey at these award shows and s---. And I don't really go to them anymore, but it's very heated."

"I'm sorry, it just - it is what it is. That's John Prine, babe.""And I try to be kind, I try to be benevolent, but there are people and energies in the sphere of my work the last few years that have really put me off," she added. "So I've stepped away in certain facets, but I still love country music, obviously, like there's no choice. I grew up in it, so it's there. It's in your bones. It's in your DNA, but I definitely think I'm lucky that I get to have a fan base and be honest." LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING?

I think for these upcomers in music or country music, just know it is a sacrifice to stick to your guns, and you will lose people along the way. Whether it's fans or f---ing friends or family members, you will lose people because you are breaking a lot of norms and cycles.""But I'm fortunate that I can be here and make music and people buy tickets to my shows. And I'm very fortunate, and it's a weird time right now. I'm very broken-hearted. I love my country, but it is so f---ing broken. And I wish I could snap my fingers and make it better. I'm here as an observant, like a songwriter. I just write about what I see and what I feel. And sometimes you break trends with even the machine that made you successful. And that's OK. And it's weird as f---. And a lot of people in my life don't understand it. And they don't understand what I've done. But I understand it and I have a beautiful life, and I have a beautiful son . And I'm very lucky."

'Duck Dynasty' stars call Seattle, San Francisco 'unlivable' under 'woke' leadership
"Duck Dynasty" stars Al and Jase Robertson blamed "woke" leadership for making American cities like Seattle and San Francisco to become "unlivable." During the Jan. 8 episode of their podcast " Unashamed with the Robertson Family ," Al and Jase discussed the contrast between the Christian ideological concepts of "idolatry," in which human ideologies and worldly values are elevated above God, and "dominion," in which people take moral responsibility and steward society under God's authority.Al said he viewed Seattle as the "perfect illustration" of how abandoning dominion for idolatry leads to "chaos." SEATTLE POLICE UNION CONDEMNS NEW SOCIALIST MAYOR'S DRUG ENFORCEMENT APPROACH AS 'SUICIDAL EMPATHY' "You and I were talking earlier, and you'd sent me a note about this new Seattle mayor who's one of these woke socialist types who's taken over the city and, basically she's just said 'Do drugs in the street,'" he said. 'We've unshackled any idea of trying to have some order in this chaos."Seattle's new mayor, Katie Wilson, recently faced backlash over claims that her administration had issued a directive that offenders would no longer be arrested for open drug use or possession but would instead be diverted for treatment. During an appearance on KIRO Newsradio's " The John Curley Show ," Wilson said that the policy regarding arresting drug offenders remains unchanged. "We have an ordinance in Seattle around drug use and possession. And currently, officers basically use their discretion around when it's appropriate to do an arrest," Wilson said. "You know, we have award-winning diversion programs and those can be invoked before an arrest, before a booking, before a trial... The bottom line comes down to we're looking for an approach which is using the right strategy in the right circumstances and that is making sure that we are getting people the help that they need. And... there's a lot of different situations out there and there's no one-size-fits-all approach. So, that's what we're trying to get to. But we have not made any change in policy."Al went on to lament what he described as the city's decline during his visits in recent years. 'DUCK DYNASTY' STAR WILLIE ROBERTSON SAYS AMERICA NEEDS TO SEE 'HEALTHY FAMILY' NOW MORE THAN EVER "I went to Seattle for the first time to go on a cruise out of Alaska," he said. "I happened to go every year for the next several years, doing cruises, most of them for work." The reality star recalled that he and his wife, Lisa, enjoyed a walk through the city during their first trip. "It's a beautiful city," he said. "I was right on the water with great restaurants, and we're like, 'Man, what a beautiful city these people have created here.' They created this little jewel, right up in our Northwest, in Seattle.""The next year we went, it had lost a little luster," Al continued. "There were a few more things going on in the streets that weren't great. By the end of the fifth year, we were afraid to walk the streets of Seattle. Down where all the tourists are. And like, we just wouldn't even get out of our hotel." CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER Al said that Seattle is an example of what happens when people stop stewarding creation under God and instead surrender to it. "You continue to watch this progression and see that there is no order," he said. "We've turned it over to creation itself, and it's just becoming untenable, unlivable and unvisitable." LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS "When you watch that, you can see it in real time over a couple of decades in a U.S. city," Al continued. "Imagine the whole idea of humanity in this framework - what happens when something other than God is in charge, when you take away His order, when you take away His light, and all the other metaphors we've been talking about."Jase told Al that he had noticed similar declines in other major urban centers. "You see that in every city and area that tries this," Jase said. "When you worship and serve the creation rather than seeing creation as something we cultivate, something we steward, something we exercise dominion over, and you flip that script, the end result is always a death word.""It's always a city like Seattle... or San Francisco," he continued. "There are so many cities across America that have embraced this ideology, and you see the decline.""You see the filth," Jase added. "You see the opposite of a beautiful garden that is expanding. Instead, what it is, it becomes a trash dump that is shrinking. Which sounds a whole lot like hell, right?"

Celebrity anti-ICE pins at Golden Globes spark mixed reactions online after Renee Good fatal shooting
During Sunday's 83rd Golden Globes , several celebrities used the event to protest U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) just days after the fatal shooting of Renée Nicole Good. Stars like Mark Ruffalo , Wanda Sykes, Jean Smart, Ariana Grande, Natasha Lyonne and others wore pins with slogans that read, "BE GOOD" and "ICE OUT.""Of course, this is for the mother who was murdered by an ICE agent , and it's really sad. I know people are out marching and all today, and we need to speak up," Sykes told Variety on the red carpet prior to the show. "We need to be out there and shut this rogue government down, because it's just awful what they're doing to people." Smart wore the pin on her dress while accepting the award for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Series - Musical or Comedy. MINNEAPOLIS POLICE NOWHERE TO BE FOUND AS AGITATORS SEIZE CONTROL OF STREET AFTER ICE SHOOTING The "BE GOOD" pin "aims to honor Renée Macklin Good and Keith Porter while also reminding us what it means to be good to one another in the face of such horror - to be a good citizen, neighbor, friend, ally and human," read the campaign's official description, via People . Good was shot and killed during an encounter with the ICE officer on Wednesday, after she allegedly swerved her car toward him. Since then, protests have erupted in Minneapolis and across the U.S. Local officials, such as Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, have criticized the ICE officer's actions.Meanwhile, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said the agent acted in self-defense, describing Good's behavior before the shooting as "an act of domestic terrorism." Golden Globes viewers quickly reacted on social media to the red carpet political protest."Such bravery," one user wrote on X. "Bravo to those with influence standing up for what's right," another wrote."A powerful moment on the red carpet," another quipped.However, others criticized the display."They are so pathetic and a bunch of hypocrites," one X user wrote."If Hollywood is against it, you know to support the opposite," another added. "Clearly [Ruffalo] hasn't seen all the videos from different angles. Ruffalo has had his agenda for years and hard facts seem to always get in his way," another wrote."Bunch of unamericans actors who i wont watch ever again!!! The fact that you guys think this helps is a joke!!!" wrote another.In November, Billy Bob Thornton called out celebrities for bringing politics to Hollywood award shows. During a recent interview on " The Joe Rogan Experience ," the 70-year-old actor explained that if someone wins an award and is "truly honored by it," he thinks they should take their time on stage to "honor the people who gave it to you," rather than bring awareness to a cause.He said, "There is a time and place for that," and during award shows, "you should just stick to what it is.""Don't go up there and talk about saving the badgers in Wisconsin or something, you know what I'm saying?" he said. "And people would argue and say, 'Well, no, because I have a voice and because everybody knows me. This is a great platform for me to put this out there.'"Well, how about this? If you have a billion dollars, and you want to save the badgers, f---ing save them," he added. "I mean, you got plenty of money to save the badgers, trust me. That is not, that's barely gonna cut into your budget." Fox News Digital's Rachel Wolf contributed to this report.

Howie Mandel exposes the biggest mistake rising stars make with their money
Howie Mandel shared a blunt warning about the temptations of early financial success for up-and-coming entertainers. Though Mandel's entertainment career spans more than four decades, the 70-year-old comedian has previously revealed that much of his wealth comes from diversified investments, particularly real estate. The "America's Got Talent" judge has long used his platform to advocate for financial literacy and smart money habits. During an interview with Fox News Digital, Mandel weighed in on the biggest mistake entertainers can make after scoring their first real paychecks. HOWIE MANDEL WEIGHS IN ON MENTAL HEALTH: 'STIGMA STILL LIVES STRONGLY TODAY' "Spending on anything," he said. "There's nothing to spend on.""I love that book, 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad,'" Mandel continued, referring to Robert T. Kiyosaki's 1997 personal finance bestseller. "I had this theory before I read the book, but anytime you get a dollar, then you've got an employee if you can make your dollar work for you.""So, instead of spending it or buying something that could get you into debt or something that's going to diminish in value, if you can get something, like, if you're gonna buy a house, then buy a duplex and rent out the other ones, so the mortgage is free."Mandel, who was expelled from high school for pulling a prank, noted he "doesn't have a GED," but rejected the idea that smart money management requires advanced education. 'SUPER FUNNY' COMIC NATE JACKSON DECLARES THAT'S 'A WRAP' ON CANCEL CULTURE, PHENOMENON IS OVER WATCH: HOWIE MANDEL REVEALS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE RISING STARS MAKE WITH THEIR MONEY "I think fourth grade math is all one needs," he told Fox News Digital. "Any dollar you make, you should look at that dollar and say, 'How can this dollar make me a nickel?' You know, or 'How can this dollar make any money?' And every dollar can make you money.""You could find ways to make money," Mandel continued. "It's easier to spend money, but then you're just assuming that more is coming in.""And you can never assume that you're gonna get another dollar tomorrow."Mandel has witnessed the rise of many new entertainers through his longtime role on the hit NBC reality competition show "America's Got Talent," where he has served as a judge for 16 consecutive seasons since 2010. The Canada native recently announced that he will host a special one-night-only "AGT" Comedy Showcase at Hollywood's Laugh Factory for comedians who aspire to compete on the show. Mandel's Comedy Showcase will be open to the public and offers comedians the opportunity to perform and potentially secure a spot on "AGT's" upcoming 21st season. LENO SAYS TICKETS SALES ARE UP AFTER HE REMOVED POLITICS FROM HIS STAND UP, SAYS 'NOBODY WANTS TO BE LECTURED' While speaking with Fox News Digital, Mandel noted that there are two main ways to initially audition for "AGT" before making it to the TV stage. Contestants can submit a video audition through the show's official casting website or line up for hours to audition for producers during open calls that are held in select U.S. cities.Mandel explained that his showcase offers comedians a third audition option he believes will better set them apart. WATCH: 'AMERICA'S GOT TALENT' JUDGE HOWIE MANDEL EXPLAINS WHY NO COMEDIAN HAS EVER WON THE SHOW "A comedian sending a tape is not always the best quality because you're at the mercy of whoever's taping or what the club has or their sound system or their lights or whatever," he said. "Or they come in in-person, and then they have to kind of show their wares in front of a table of producers with no audience.""And I am such a proponent of stand-up comedy and feel that it's under - people don't know what goes into it - especially on our show," Mandel continued. "When you see somebody come out, and they're hanging upside down, two stories in the air and in flames, or even if you just come out, and you're a singer, and you are singing a cover song. And you know, you're singing somebody else's song, and you play guitar and the audience just needs to sit there and then at the end, if you hit a really high note, or you get loud, they roar, and they stand at the end." 'STUTTERING COMEDIAN' DREW LYNCH SAYS SPEECH IMPEDIMENT TURNED OUT TO BE HIS BIGGEST 'GIFT' "But a comedian has to write their own material," he pointed out. "They have to present it themselves and there are no bells and whistles unless those are your props. So, I feel that for the producers, to get the best idea of what somebody can deliver, why don't you see it in the place where it is supposed to be? And that is in front of a real audience.""And hopefully...if they do something great, you bring them to the show, and they can replicate that on TV. And I just think that no other form of entertainment needs that kind of audition or space or stage to really show people.""AGT" has given comedians significant national exposure and helped launch or boost the careers of several stand-outs, including Preacher Lawson, Josh Blue, Taylor Williamson, Vicki Barbolak, Learnmore Jonasi and others. However, no comedian has ever won "AGT." JERRY SEINFELD REVEALS HOW 'CLEAN' COMEDY FORCES HIM TO BE A MORE 'ELEGANT,' FUNNIER WRITER During his interview with Fox News Digital, Mandel shared his thoughts on why no comedian has yet won the competition. "I think because people just do not - and this is our culture - people do not understand what goes into honing an act and delivering an act," he said. "It just seems like less. You know, in the circus, the clown goes on last. Even on 'The Tonight Show,' they put the comedian on at the end...or it's the opening act.""I don't think there's a lot of respect for funny or silly or whatever, but as somebody who's in the throes of it, a lot goes into it, and it can be terrifying," Mandel continued. "It can be arduous. It's a lot of work." CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER Mandel pointed to legendary comedian and "Seinfeld" star Jerry Seinfeld, whom he described as a "wordsmith." "He is not just out there making stuff up, talking," Mandel said. "You put a lot of work and time and effort into it and a lot of the comics that come on our show do, and it's really scary. A lot of them will come from other countries where this isn't even their culture, and they have to make somebody or people or an audience thousands of miles away in the other part of the globe laugh and smile. It's hard to do." LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS "And I'm not tooting my horn," he added.

"You can only end up in a better position. You can't end up in a worse position. Worst-case scenario, you'll be exactly where you are now.
