Halle Berry is madly in love with boyfriend Van Hunt, but she’s rushing to get married. A source close to Berry revealed to PEOPLE that the Oscar-winning actress is embracing the “balance in her life.” ​“Halle’s doing great. She’s very happy with life right now,” the source says. “Her kids are older and doing really well. Nahla is the sweetest and is heading off to college this fall.” ​“Being in a relationship with Van Hunt has been wonderful for Halle. He really gets her and treats her so well,” the source says. “She’s very grateful.” While the couple has discussed marriage, Berry is content. Hunt proposed to Berry in June, but they’re taking their time. ​Speaking on Today,  Berry explained why she doesn’t need to be married to validate her relationship. “I’ve been married three times. Van has been married once. And so, no, we don’t feel like we have to get married to validate our love in any way. We don’t,” she said. “I think we will get married. Just because out of the people I’ve been married to, this is the person I should have married. And I feel like I should, we should get married. But it’s not because we feel like we have to,” Berry continued. “I think it’s something that we would like to do just because we want that expression.” Along with her relationship, Berry is slated to star in Crime 101. The film follows a rule-bound jewel thief (Chris Hemsworth) pulling off audacious heists along LA’s 101 Freeway. His plans get complicated when he teams with a disillusioned insurance broker (Halle Berry). The film is set to hit theaters on Feb. 13. In addition to film and television projects, Berry is involved with her wellness brand, Respin Health. “She very much enjoys it all,” the source says. “And she’s very happy with life right now.”

I’m grateful that the audience has embraced what we do.

They were also named among TimeMagazine’s “100 Most Influential People.”  

Keke Palmer is setting firm boundaries around love, space, and independence, and she is saying it out loud. During a Feb. 2 appearance on Today, the entertainer spoke candidly about why living with a romantic partner is not part of her future plans. Even marriage, she said, would not change that stance. “I like my alone time,” Palmer said. “That’s real.” The 32-year-old entertainer shares a two-year-old son, Leodis, with ex Darius Jackson. Motherhood, she explained, sharpened her clarity. Personal space now feels vital, not negotiable. Palmer credited Whoopi Goldberg for articulating a feeling she already understood. Goldberg has long joked about wanting love without cohabitation. Palmer agreed instantly. “I feel like Whoopi Goldberg said it best once,” Palmer said. “She was like, ‘I don’t want nobody in my house.’ And I feel that.” Still, Palmer is not rejecting partnership. She is redefining it. Her vision favors closeness without crowding. “Around the corner would be great,” she said. She floated the idea of shared land with separate spaces. A guest house works. Separate rooms feel ideal. That structure, she said, keeps romance alive. Keke Palmer Wants To Live Separately In Marriage “Think about how fun it would be to be like, ‘I’m going over to my man’s house,’” Palmer said. She also laughed about domestic realities. A partner sleeping over could disrupt her peace. Visiting feels better. “I want to go sit on his couch,” she added. While Palmer guards her independence, her son remains the center. Her home, she said, will always be his space first. In a 2024 interview with E! News, Palmer described parenting as a grounding force that reshaped her priorities. “The child is the most responsible you can be,” she said. “Nothing else brings that level of accountability.” For Palmer, self-care connects directly to motherhood. Showing up for Leodis requires honoring herself. “I need to be the best me for him,” she said. Palmer’s message lands with humor and intention. Love can thrive with boundaries. Space can deepen connection. Balance, she believes, keeps joy intact.

Is a potential engagement proposal on the horizon for the New England Patriots’ Stefon Diggs and rap star Cardi B at this weekend’s Super Bowl LX? The popular wide receiver faced the inquiry as media gathered ahead of the NFL’s biggest stage. Asked whether a Super Bowl win might also inspire an engagement to his superstar partner, Diggs smiled and laughed, keeping the mood relaxed without losing focus. “It’s on the agenda, maybe. Right? I gotta get mine first, though,” Diggs said, drawing laughs while making his priorities clear. The exchange spread quickly across social media, where fans reacted to Diggs balancing humor with intention. The clip stood out amid the usual championship-week intensity, offering a glimpse of Diggs as both a competitor and a public figure navigating attention beyond football. Moments later, Diggs steered the conversation back to Super Bowl LX and the Patriots’ preparation. His tone sharpened as he discussed the team’s internal culture and expectations under head coach Mike Vrabel. Diggs described a locker room driven by accountability rather than reminders. He said players police themselves and measure effort by how it impacts teammates. Will New England Patriots’ Stefon Diggs Propose To Cardi B If He Secures Super Bowl LX Win? “You start looking at your teammates,” Diggs said. “I’m saying self-policing, self-accountability, and you don’t want to let your teammates down.” He credited Vrabel with setting that standard from the top. Diggs praised the coach’s leadership and the environment built throughout the season, emphasizing trust and cohesion. “The camaraderie and the team chemistry that Mike Vrabel has built is second to none,” Diggs said. “Hopefully he wins Coach of the Year because he’s probably the best coach I’ve ever had.” For Diggs, Super Bowl LX represents more than another appearance. It offers a chance to define a career already marked by elite production and durability. The stakes feel personal, professional, and rare. Still, Diggs kept perspective. Personal milestones remain secondary. Championships require full commitment. Focus comes before celebration. As cameras flashed and questions shifted between football and fame, Diggs stayed grounded. He acknowledged curiosity without feeding distraction. He praised leadership without overstating it. He centered the moment where it mattered. For now, Diggs’ message is straightforward. Win the Super Bowl. Earn the ring. Everything else can wait.

New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson wasted little time responding after his name surfaced in the latest release of the so-called Epstein Files. This document dump has reignited scrutiny around the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein and his network. On Sunday, Feb. 1, the ten-time Pro Bowler addressed the matter directly on social media, forcefully denying any connection to Epstein. The reaction followed the Justice Department’s release of millions of pages of Epstein-related records on Friday, Jan. 30, which quickly began circulating online. Buried within the files were several emails between Epstein and his longtime pilot, Larry Visoski. The messages referenced Wilson during a 2019 discussion involving a Gulfstream G-IV private jet owned by Epstein. While the emails did not accuse Wilson of wrongdoing, the appearance of his name drew swift attention. Wilson shut down speculation in blunt fashion. “NOPE!!! ABSOLUTELY NOT! Not TODAY satan!” he wrote on X. Russell Wilson reacts to reports about his name being mentioned in the Epstein files. “NOPE!!! ABSOLUTELY NOT! Not TODAY satan! Some Random plane broker tried to sell me a plane. I had no idea whose plane and never bought the plane. Never talked nor Never met the man. Thank… pic.twitter.com/mfOBtwCp8v — GOT DA SCOOP (@GotDaScoop) February 2, 2026 He acknowledged that he once discussed a potential aircraft purchase but said it involved “some random plane broker.” He stressed that he had no idea the plane belonged to Epstein. According to the Justice Department records, Epstein authorized Visoski to show Wilson the jet on Jan. 25, 2019. The emails claim Wilson toured the aircraft with his wife, Ciara, and took photos and videos during the visit. Two days later, Visoski followed up in another email. “Russell Wilson (Seattle Seahawks quarterback) is calling Gary non-stop since his viewing yesterday,” he wrote. “He wants your GIV.” New York Giants’ Russell Wilson Addresses Jeffrey Epstein’s Epstein Files Mention Visoski also mentioned timing, noting Wilson wanted to finalize a new NFL contract before making any aircraft purchase public. That spring, Wilson signed a four-year, $140 million extension with Seattle, becoming the league’s highest-paid player at the time. Wilson ultimately purchased a different Gulfstream G-IV. FAA records cited by The Seattle Times show the aircraft was registered in December 2020 under Seattle-based West2East 330 LLC. Wilson’s publicist, Stephanie Jones, addressed the issue in a statement, saying the Super Bowl champion “never purchased the aircraft, nor was he aware that any aircraft discussed by third parties had any connection to Epstein.” The clarification arrives during a transitional moment for Wilson. The 37-year-old veteran began last season as the Giants’ starting quarterback before being benched for rookie Jaxson Dart. He is set to become a free agent this offseason. For now, Wilson’s focus remains clear. He has rejected any association with Epstein and framed the episode as a routine business inquiry that never moved forward. In a moment where silence often fuels speculation, Wilson chose a louder route.

Chrisean Rock’s previously reported boxing debut has found an opponent and fight date, according to TMZ. View this post on Instagram Rock will face professional wrestler Zenith Zion on April 25 in a three-round bout at Harrah’s Philadelphia Casino in Chester, Pennsylvania. The event will also stream on Triller pay-per-view, placing Rock’s first sanctioned fight on a national stage. Zion enters with a clear experience edge. The Philadelphia native previously held the AWA Women’s Television Championship and has spent years performing in combat-based sports. She earned the fight after being selected from more than 5,800 applicants for the chance to spar with Rock, a process that framed the bout as more than a novelty. Zion made her intentions clear in a promotional video. While throwing punches, she issued a direct warning: “Be prepared, Chrisean, because I’m coming to kick your ass.” Chrisean Rock v. Zenith Zion On April 25 With XRumble Fighting Championship Rock, however, has taken visible steps toward legitimacy. Earlier this month, she signed with XRumble Fighting Championships’ boxing division. She has also been linked to Calvin Ford, the longtime trainer of boxing star Gervonta Davis, suggesting a structured approach to preparation. “Beyond grateful… my first boxing deal is finally done,” Rock said when announcing the signing, framing the bout as a career milestone rather than a stunt. Her interest in boxing surfaced publicly last December during a livestream training session with Ryan Garcia. Garcia accidentally landed a punch and immediately apologized, saying he “didn’t mean” to connect. Rock laughed it off and asked to continue, a moment that went viral and fueled debate about her toughness. That clip divided viewers. Some questioned her readiness for competition. Others praised her composure and willingness to engage. The April fight now offers clarity. The matchup blends contrasting profiles. Zion brings discipline and ring awareness. Rock brings visibility, intensity, and curiosity. Together, they reflect celebrity boxing’s evolving balance between entertainment and competition. Tickets for the event are on sale now. For Rock, April 25 represents more than a debut. It marks an attempt to redefine how seriously she is taken once the gloves are on.

Lil Wayne took the stage at Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines, Iowa, on April 11, 2024, delivering a performance that highlighted his distinctive artistry. Yet amid the applause, a note of frustration lingered as he addressed a conspicuous absence from the Grammy nominations. The evening was both a celebration of music and a moment of reflection for the seasoned artist, Wayne. Despite releasing Tha Carter VI last June, Wayne’s fourteenth studio album received no nods from the Recording Academy. Following the 2026 Grammy Awards on Sunday night, he took to social media to express a mix of admiration for fellow nominees and disappointment in his own omission. His post drew an unusual comparison to NFL coach Bill Belichick. “Congrats to the nominees and winners. Wasn’t included, as usual. I gotta work harder, as usual. One time for my slime Bill Beli,” Wayne wrote. Referencing Belichick—celebrated for his accomplishments yet overlooked in his first year of Hall of Fame eligibility—Wayne captured a familiar sense of being passed over despite consistent achievement. Tha Carter VI debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 with 108,000 album-equivalent units in its first week. Critics offered a range of reactions, sparking industry conversations about Wayne’s lasting influence and the weight of recognition within hip-hop. There’s no denying the impact Wayne continues to have on the rap landscape. Congrats to the nominees and winners. Wasnt included. As usual. I gotta work harder. As usual. One time for my slime Bill Beli — Lil Wayne WEEZY F (@LilTunechi) February 2, 2026 Celebrating Hip-Hop Achievements While Wayne did not take home an award, the ceremony recognized several notable contributions to the genre. Kendrick Lamar won Best Rap Album for GNX and also claimed Best Rap Song for “tv off” and Best Melodic Rap Performance for “luther,” which contributed to the Record of the Year honor. Clipse earned Best Rap Performance for “Chains & Whips,” and Doecii was awarded Best Music Video for “Anxiety.” These Grammy moments served as reminders of Wayne’s own significant achievements in hip-hop. The night also featured moments of debate. Nicki Minaj publicly addressed Trevor Noah’s comedic jabs regarding her political affiliations. On X (formerly Twitter), she framed her response in spiritual terms: “As they do their ritual tonight, God almighty will reveal himself to them. The ritual will backfire on them. God will not be mocked.” Her remarks highlighted the intersection of faith, celebrity, and public scrutiny during high-profile events, a space Wayne himself is certainly familiar with.

President Donald Trump issued a pointed reaction to Trevor Noah following the comedian’s remarks at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards. Writing on Truth Social, Trump described the ceremony as “the worst” and “virtually unwatchable,” singling out Noah for particular criticism. The statement drew attention for its directness, emphasizing Trump’s dissatisfaction with the comedian’s references. The dispute arose from Noah’s joke linking Trump to Jeffrey Epstein’s private island, alongside a reference to former President Bill Clinton. Trump denied ever visiting the island and characterized the comments as “false and defamatory.” He added that no credible media outlet had made similar claims, framing the remark as inaccurate and misleading. Trump’s response included sharp personal commentary aimed at Noah. “Noah, a total loser, better get his facts straight—fast,” he wrote, signaling that the matter had become more than a casual grievance. He also suggested potential legal action, stating, “It seems I’ll be instructing my lawyers to sue this poor, pathetic, talentless M.C., and seeking substantial damages.” During the Grammy broadcast, Noah referenced Billie Eilish’s win for Song of the Year, quipping, “That is a Grammy that every artist desires almost as much as Trump wants Greenland.” He added a pointed aside: “This makes sense since Epstein’s island is no longer available; he needs a new place to socialize with Bill Clinton.” The line drew immediate audience reaction, and the subsequent statements by Trump amplified attention in the media. Trump Responds Amid Renewed Epstein Attention Trump’s remarks reflect an ongoing effort to clarify his public associations with Epstein, the financier who died in 2019 while facing federal sex trafficking charges. Epstein’s connections and legal history continue to draw scrutiny, with new documents released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act renewing public interest. The continued circulation of these records has kept Epstein-related controversies in the public eye. While no individual has been definitively implicated, the renewed focus on past associations has heightened attention on public figures connected, directly or indirectly, to Epstein. Trump’s statement illustrates how such controversies can intersect with moments in popular culture.

The 68th annual Grammy Awards are rarely short on spectacle, but CeeLo Green ensured his arrival cut through the noise. Though the 50-year-old singer was not nominated this year, he turned the red carpet into a moment alongside his 25-year-old son, Layke. Together, they offered a reminder that the Grammys are as much about presentation as they are about trophies. Their appearance stood apart from the night’s more traditional red carpet fare. CeeLo opted for a look that blended ease with provocation, wearing a bright red sweater trimmed in white and black. The outfit was sharpened by red contact lenses and his signature gothic makeup, which immediately drew cameras his way. When asked by Entertainment Tonight about the striking choice, he replied, “What are you saying? Are you kidding? I was born this way.” He followed with a shrugging explanation: “Interesting, that’s all. Just keeping it interesting.” Layke, whose birth name is Kingston Callaway, leaned fully into glam rock theatrics. His face paint evoked classic KISS imagery, widely read as a tribute to the late Ace Frehley. A red mesh top layered beneath a fur-trimmed vest, paired with black leather pants and spiked gauntlets, completed the look. The effect was deliberate, dramatic, and impossible to miss. View this post on Instagram Beyond Fashion, a Moment in Music History On the carpet, Layke also spoke about the meaning behind his chosen name, saying it “opens up an aura of mystery” and elevates how a person is perceived. The comment fit neatly into a night where self-definition and performance often blurred. Elsewhere, CeeLo took time to praise Clipse, who earned nominations for Best Rap Performance, Best Rap Song, and Best Rap Album. Their win for “Chains & Whips” added to Kendrick Lamar’s historic evening, marking his fifth Grammy of the night and bringing his career total to 27, the most of any rapper in Grammy history. The Grammy Awards have long functioned as a crossroads of music, image, and personality. CeeLo Green and Layke used the red carpet not simply to dress boldly, but to stake a claim in that tradition. Their appearance served as a reminder that at the Grammys, presence can resonate long after the awards are handed out.

Over the weekend, Alex Bruesewitz and his now-wife, former beauty queen Carolina Urrea, held a star-studded wedding at President Donald Trump’s Doral Golf Course in Miami. Bruesewitz, a right-wing podcaster, was one of the major voices behind Trump during his 2024 presidential campaign. In addition to Trump’s family members and senior advisors, several prominent Black entertainers, including Nicki Minaj, Sexyy Red, and 50 Cent, were also present. Clips of the event have already circulated online. Fif and Sexyy were seen performing on stage, while Nicki was mingling with other guests. Also in attendance were Boxer Mike Tyson, Michael Blackson, Tristan Thompson, and Amber Rose. Sexyy Red hit the stage during the wedding of President Trump advisor Alex Bruesewitz and Carolina Urrea! #TSRStaffAS https://t.co/oGnbiEZYRu — TheShadeRoom (@TheShadeRoom) February 1, 2026 Nicki Minaj Goes Full MAGA In other news, Nicki Minaj made it clear she’s more than a supporter of President Donald Trump; she’s his biggest fan. Earlier this week, President Donald Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent hosted a “Trump Accounts Summit” in Washington, D.C. Among the guest speakers was Nicki Minaj, who referred to herself as Trump’s “No.1 fan,” and accused others of “bullying” him. “I don’t know what to say, but I will say that I am probably the president’s No. 1 fan. That’s not going to change,” Minaj said. Minaj says the criticism she’s received only motivates her to “support him [Trump] more.” She continued, “It’s gonna motivate all of us to support him more.” The “Starships” rapper also made it a point to call out the president’s “bullies.” She added, “We’re not going to let them get away with bullying him and, you know, the smear campaigns: It’s not going to work, OK? He has a lot of force behind him, and God is protecting him. Amen.”
