Britney Spears longtime manager Larry Rudolph resigns amid rumors shell retire – Fox News

Britney Spears’ longtime manager, Larry Rudolph, has officially resigned as rumors of the singer’s retirement continue to swirl amid her ongoing conservatorship battle.  The resignation comes days after co-conservator Bessemer Trust also jumped ship from overseeing and assisting in the performer’s career and finances following a judge's denial of her request to remove her father, Jamie, from being a conservator and dissolving a legal arrangement they established in 2008. In a letter addressed to Jamie Spears and the court-appointed conservator Jodi Montgomery Monday, Deadline reports that Rudolph officially tendered his resignation. Rudolph has been Britney’s manager for the majority of her career, including her rise to the top in the mid-1990s.  "It has been over 2 1/2 years since Br...

The ‘incredible’ moment Chris Hemsworth came face-to-face with a grey nurse shark – Yahoo Entertainment

To help kick off National Geographic’s Sharkfest celebration, actor Chris Hemsworth took a break from being the big-time movie star that he is to host the documentary special, Shark Beach with Chris Hemsworth. In it he explores ways that sharks and humans can live better together without doing each other harm, after yet another deadly year for shark attacks in his native of Australia.

Tyler, The Creator Seemingly Trolls DJ Khaled After CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST Goes No. 1 – HYPEBEAST

Tyler, The Creator has earned his second number one album with CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST, and the rapper took to Twitter to express his excitement while seemingly addressing an old comment made by his chart rival and We the Best Music label founder, DJ Khaled.

In 2019, Tyler’s IGOR album also hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200, surpassing Khaled’s Father of Asahd. Khaled expressed t...
