A fight broke out between Three 6 Mafia and Bone Thugs-N-Harmony during their Verzuz hits battle that nearly derailed the whole event. The two groups went head-to-head on Thursday night (Dec. 2), live from the Hollywood Palladium in Hollywood, Calif. However, things got a little heated during the fourth round, resulting in a huge fight. The moment happened after Bone finished performing the rap weed medley "Buddah Lovers." Bizzy Bone appeared to be angered by DJ Paul and Gangsta Boo slow dancing during his group's performance in a mocking fashion. Following the song, he addressed Three 6 before letting them continue. "Before we even get started, you ugly muthafuckers not gon' be mocking me when I'm on this muthafucking stage," Bizzy snapped. "Like straight the fuck up." Juicy J responded...

Abimbola "Bola" Osundairo and his brother Olabinjo "Ola" Osundairo provided critical testimony on Wednesday and Thursday in Smollett's criminal trial on charges that he staged the attack and falsely reported it to police. The prosecution rested Thursday evening after three days of testimony in which it called seven witnesses, including the brothers. Ola Osundairo told jurors that Smollett "had this crazy idea of having two MAGA supporters attack him," and that he wanted "to put that on social media." "Mr. Smollett asked you to fake attack him?" Deputy Special Prosecutor Sam Mendenhall asked. "Yes," Ola Osundairo responded. "Pretending to be Trump supporters?" Mendenhall continued. "Yes," Ola Osundairo said. "So he could then post it on social media?" the prosecutor continued. "Yes," Ola O...

Verzuz battles are typically a friendly competition, but on Thursday in the face-off between Bone Thugs-N-Harmony and Three 6 Mafia, the music throw down devolved into a physical throw down. Apparently, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony’s Bizzy Bone did not take kindly to the “mocking” that happens during the event. “Hey yo, hey. Before we even get started, you ugly motherfuckers ain’t fit to be mocking me while I’m on the motherfucking stage. Like straight the fuck up,” he said during the event. More NSFW words were exchanged, some bottles were chucked, and then the group’s collided as punches were thrown. I spoke too soon.

The actor Alec Baldwin fiercely insisted he was not to blame in the fatal shooting of a cinematographer on the set of a Western being filmed in New Mexico, claiming that another person had accidentally placed a live round in the gun that went off in his grasp as he was rehearsing a scene. “Someone put a live bullet in a gun, a bullet that wasn’t even supposed to be on the property,” Mr. Baldwin said in a television interview that was broadcast on Thursday night. “Someone is ​responsible for what happened, and I can’t say who that is, but I know it’s not me.” Mr. Baldwin made the comments in an emotional ABC News interview with George Stephanopoulos, the first time that Mr. Baldwin has publicly given an account of what happened in October. The actor’s description of the episode may cast g...

NBC this Thursday night added to its repertoire Annie Live! Did you love it like tomorrow (which, I hear, is always a day away)? Annie Live! starred 12-year-old Celina Smith, of Atlanta, as the titular orphan, while Harry Connick Jr. (Will & Grace) in a novelty-store bald cap played Daddy Warbucks and Taraji P. Henson (Empire) filled Miss Hannigan’s sensible shoes. Rounding out the main ensemble were singer Nicole Scherzinger as Grace, plus Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt‘s Tituss Burgess and Smash‘s Megan Hilty (stepping in for a COVID-positive Jane Krakowski) as Rooster and Lily/”Ralph and Shirley Mudge.” Sandy was played by… a dog named Sandy. The live production — NBC’s sixth such musical in the past eight years, as detailed below — went off with nary a major hitch (...
