ESPY Awards Shower Kudos on Women as Host Shane Gillis Delivers Edgy Jokes About Female Athletes
The ESPY Awards celebrated women athletes with a flood of accolades, but host Shane Gillis stole some of the spotlight with his sharp, divisive jokes about female sports stars. While the night was packed with recognition for women’s achievements—like standout gymnasts and other trailblazers—Gillis’ edgy monologue left the audience of athletes and celebs split between laughter and discomfort.
Editor’s Note: The ESPYs are usually a feel-good moment for athletes, but this year’s mix of progressive recognition and provocative humor highlights the tension between celebrating progress and old-school shock comedy. It’s a snapshot of how sports culture is evolving—sometimes awkwardly—as women’s achievements take center stage.

Pete Davidson's Dating History: Kim Kardashian, Ariana Grande and More
NeutralEntertainment
Comedian and "SNL" alum Pete Davidson has become almost as famous for his high-profile dating life as for his comedy career. From Kim Kardashian to Ariana Grande, his romantic links read like a who's who of celebrity culture. This piece breaks down his relationship timeline—because let's be honest, the internet's been keeping score.
Editor’s Note: While this might seem like frivolous tabloid fodder, Davidson's dating history actually says a lot about modern celebrity culture—how personal lives become public entertainment, and why we’re all weirdly invested in the romantic lives of people we’ll never meet. It’s a guilty pleasure with cultural weight.
Netflix Beats Q2 Earnings Expectations, Revenue Jumps 16%
PositiveEntertainment
Netflix had a solid second quarter in 2025, pulling in slightly more revenue and profit than Wall Street expected. Revenue climbed 16% year-over-year to $11.08 billion, while earnings per share edged past forecasts at $7.19. Notably, the company stuck to its recent trend of not disclosing subscriber numbers—so no updates on how many new users signed up.
Editor’s Note: Even without the usual subscriber count reveal, Netflix’s financials show it’s still a heavyweight in streaming. The revenue jump suggests its strategy—whether it’s cracking down on password sharing or pushing ad-supported tiers—is paying off. For investors, it’s a reassuring sign that the company can keep growing even as the streaming wars get messier. For viewers? Well, hopefully, some of that cash goes into better shows.
Salman cheers for Sonakshi Sinha ahead of Nikita Roy release
PositiveEntertainment
Bollywood star Sonakshi Sinha is making a comeback with Nikita Roy, a supernatural thriller hitting theaters on July 18. The film, directed by her brother Kussh S Sinha, features a solid cast including Arjun Rampal and Paresh Rawal. Adding some star power to the promotion, her Dabangg co-star Salman Khan gave the movie a shoutout, encouraging fans to check it out.
Editor’s Note: Comeback films are always a big deal in Bollywood, and having Salman Khan—a box office heavyweight—cheer you on doesn’t hurt. This isn’t just a family affair (with her brother directing); it’s also a test of whether Sonakshi can pull audiences back after a break. If the thriller delivers, it could mark a strong return for her career.
Barrett Doss, Michael Hough & Rebecca Amzallag Among 7 Joining ‘Little House on the Prairie’ Reboot
PositiveEntertainment
Netflix is beefing up the cast of its Little House on the Prairie reboot with seven new recurring actors, including familiar faces like Barrett Doss (Station 19), Michael Hough (Star Trek: Strange New Worlds), and Rebecca Amzallag. The mix of talent—ranging from comedy to drama—suggests the show is aiming for both nostalgia and fresh energy.
Editor’s Note: Reboots can be hit or miss, but adding a diverse group of actors with solid TV pedigrees hints that Netflix is taking this seriously. For fans of the original, it’s a sign the new version might honor the spirit of Little House while bringing something new—and for streaming audiences, it’s another big-name adaptation to keep an eye on.
