Kourtney Kardashian's Son Breaks Silence on Justin Bieber Father Rumors
Reign Disick was the third child that Kourtney Kardashian had with her longtime partner, Scott Disick. However, a bizarre Internet rumor claims that pop sensation Justin Bieber is actually Reign's father. The 10-year-old actually addressed the rumors this week.
Kourtney Kardashian married blink-182 drummer Travis Barker back in 2022, blending their two families together. As a result, their children now spend a lot of time together, and that led to 10-year-old Reign addressing the Internet rumors during an Instagram Live hosted by the boyfriend of Barker's 19-year-old daughter, Alabama.
In the video, a commenter insinuated that Bieber – not Disick – was actually Reign's father. Reign could then be heard refuting the rumor.
"No, he's not. Bro, I swear, Justin Bieber is not my dad," Reign said, according to People. "Scotty... Scotty... Scotty is my dad."

Reign went on to suggest that the timeline did not exactly make sense for Bieber to have fathered him given the date of his birth and the respective ages of Kourtney and Bieber.
"I don't know how old my mom was, but I think Justin Bieber was 16 when I got born. I don't think my mom would do that," Reign said.
It's worth noting that Reign's timeline is not completely accurate. Reign was born in 2014, which would have made Bieber around 20 years old at the time. However, the timeline of Reign's birth does not line up with the time when Kardashian was rumored to have been hooking up with the pop star.
People cited multiple sources as it reported that Kourtney and Bieber were hooking in 2016 and that the two were even seen together in late March of that year. At the time, Bieber was 22 and Kourtney was 36.
Still, the timeline does not work out for Bieber to have fathered Reign, given that he had already been born for two years at that point.

'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' Unveils New-Look Logo, Sparking an Immediate Debate
As Marvel continues to unveil big news and movie release dates, Tom Holland’s next Spider-Man film is the latest series to take center stage.
On Monday, March 31, Marvel announced the next film in the series will be titled Spider-Man: Brand New Day and will hit theaters on July 31, 2026, as Discussing Film revealed.
While the release date and official title are more than enough to get fans excited, Marvel Studios decided to go one step further and unveil a new-look logo for the film. As seen below, it's a noteworthy alteration compared to the logos of the other movies in the series.
Official logos for the MCU’s ‘SPIDER-MAN’ films:
— DiscussingFilm (@DiscussingFilm) April 1, 2025
• ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’
• ‘Spider-Man: Far From Home’
• ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’
• ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ pic.twitter.com/L1dP9xDH17
Spider-Man: Homecoming, Far From Home and No Way Home all feature the main character's name in a similar shape and font. However, Brand New Day is receiving an overhaul, with a drastically different font that's larger and stands out more.
While some fans loved the change to the film's logo, others weren't as pleased, and it quickly sparked a debate over the topic.
"The downfall to brand new day is insane," wrote one fan.
"I think far from home is the best title and brand new day is the worst title," added another.
"That logo is such a downgrade," read another comment.
However, other fans argued that the logo for Brand New Day was a major upgrade.

"The last one is nice," replied another fan, favoring the new look.
One response pointed to the comic book version of Spider-Man, with a fan citing that the logo has a "comic vibe to it."

One of the most interesting responses suggested that the new-look logo could be Marvel's way of hinting at a new trilogy.

Taylor Swift Put Distance Between Travis Kelce & His Friend
Kansas City Chiefs superstar tight end Travis Kelce has seen his life change quite a bit ever since he began dating pop sensation Taylor Swift back in 2024. And it seems like the high-profile relationship has put some distance in one of his friendships, too.
FS1’s Nick Wright is a prominent sports media personality as the host of “First Things First” as well as his podcast “What’s Wright? With Nick Wright.” He previously had a good friendship with Travis Kelce and hung out with him often. And while it seems like Kelce is still quite fond of the media personality, it sounds like his relationship has put some distance in that friendship.
Travis recently brought up his fond feelings for Wright during the latest episode of his "New Heights" podcast when he and his brother began discussing the salary cap and proposed bringing salary cap experts onto their show.
“Who should we have on?” Jason asked on the podcast. “Obviously, the two big ones for both of us are Howie (Roseman) and (Brett) Veach, the two general managers for our respective teams. … We could go outside of the organization and go with someone who maybe is used to working in the NFL or works in the media. Nick Wright threw his hat in the ring on Twitter. Known Kansas City Chiefs homer.”
“[Expletive] love Nick Wright,” Travis replied.

Wright heard the shoutout and was glad to hear from his friend, but he also admitted that he hasn't really spoken to Travis ever since he began dating Taylor Swift.
“My guy Trav; what a delight,” Wright said on his podcast on Friday. “So here is the thing, Trav and I have not like talked talked since he has been serious with Taylor Swift, since he’s become a super-duper celebrity. I don’t want to bother him during the year. And then last offseason, he was traveling the world with Taylor.
"And then at the parade last year, we were going to get together after the parade. But there was obviously the tragedy and the shooting. So everything went askew. I haven’t talked to Trav in a while."
Despite this, Wright said he would be glad to appear on the podcast if they would like to have him.
“Appreciate the shoutout on one of the world’s most popular podcasts. Also, to the ‘New Heights’ producers, I’ll do it. And I’ll waive my appearance fee just to help them out. They want someone to come on and really break down the cap. Nothing would thrill me more,” Wright wrote.
It makes sense that Travis's life got a little more crazy once he started dating one of the most famous women on the planet, and it also makes sense that the high-profile relationship put a little bit of strain on Kelce's other friendships. The good news is, it sounds like there's no hard feelings.
Cast For All Four Beatles Movies Revealed, Shocking Release Plan Announced
In exactly three years, four movies about The Beatles will be released, each focused on one of the four members of the band. This project, helmed by Sam Mendes, has been coming for a while, but now, thanks to CinemaCon 2025 in Las Vegas, we not only know the cast of these movies, but the surprising plan for releasing the movies has also been confirmed.
On Monday evening, at CinemaCon 2025, Sony Pictures confirmed who exactly will play each of the Beatles, and, perhaps more surprisingly, how each film will hit theaters.
Here's the cast, many of whom have been rumored to have been cast in these roles for a long, long time.
John Lennon will be played by Harris DickinsonPaul McCartney will be played by Paul MescalGeorge Harrison will be played by Joseph QuinnRingo Starr will be played by Barry KeoghanThe Beatles - A Four-Film Cinematic Event, directed by Sam Mendes.

But, again, the cast is not the eyebrow-raising aspect of this project. And that's because each of the four films won't be released consecutively. Instead, all four films will be released simultaneously, in theaters, during the same month. This news was confirmed by numerous reporters attending CinemaCon, as well as by Deadline. The release plan is being called "the first bingeable theatrical experience."
Theatrical films of this scale, which are essentially sequels to one another, have never been released all in the same month. Just as the Beatles made history with music, it seems that Mendes is determined to make history with these four films.
All four Beatles movies, as yet untitled, will hit theaters in April 2028. Filming begins in 2027.

Ex-Doctor Doom Actor Has Candid Reaction to Robert Downey Jr. as Marvel Villain
The hype behind Avengers: Doomsday continues to pick up steam following a nearly six-hour livestream to unveil its stellar cast. However, even with a loaded roster of high-profile celebrities, one name continues to be a primary talking point — and likely will remain one over the coming year.
Robert Downey Jr. stepping into the role of Doctor Doom has the potential to set up an incredibly unique film and move the former Iron Man actor over to the other team.
Marvel's cast reveal for the upcoming Avengers film also included numerous actors reprising former superhero roles. Recently, Screenrant caught up with Julian McMahon, the former 2005 Doctor Doom from Fantastic Four, who spoke about Downey taking on the role.
View the original article to see embedded media.
McMahon predicted that Downey Jr.'s performance as Doctor Doom would be "extraordinary" and praised the 59-year-old actor during a discussion with Screenrant at SXSW.
"It's Robert, you know what I mean? What are you going to say? His body of work speaks for itself," McMahon said of Downey Jr. "He's a super talented guy. I love watching his work. When we did the movies years ago, we were at the [precipice] of all that stuff happening. So, we were finding our way a lot, and we were trying to figure out what space the movie itself lived in.
"... I think now that there's so many different realms of establishment of the way that you look at those pieces, you can pretty much do so many different things now," he continued.
"If you've got Robert Downey Jr, who's one of the great creatives of the last however many years we've been watching him for, mixed with the elements of how we can make movies these days? I think it's going to be pretty extraordinary."
Among the cast list revealed by Marvel is the return of multiple X-Men alums. This includes Patrick Stewart, Kelsey Grammer, James Marsden, Alan Cumming, Rebecca Romijn and Ian McKellen.
Avengers: Doomsday has a release date of May 1, 2026.

Meghan Trainor Breaks Her Silence on Dramatic Body Transformation
This month, superstar singer Meghan Trainor ignited a lot of attention with her body transformation after she appeared to shed a noticeable amount of weight in recent months. Now, she's opening up a little bit on how it happened.
Over the weekend, Trainor attended the 2025 Billboard Women in Music event where she broke her silence on her dramatic body transformation and explained what she did to shed all of her weight.
"Science is the secret. I love it," Trainor told Entertainment Tonight when asked about the secret behind her new look. "I learned a lot of tricks that I had no idea [about]. I was working out so incorrectly wrong for so long. I was running and doing cardio and my body was inflamed, always."
Trainor said that she used certain techniques to "biohack" her body.
"I'm trying to biohack my body," she added. "So anything that'll help me age backward, I’m into it."

"I just learned about the NADs [supplements]," Trainor continued. "I was like, ‘Make me Hailey Bieber. I'll do it. I'll take it’ … I’m trying all the things. I love a doctor explaining stuff to me."
The "NADs" that Trainor referred to is nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide – a supplement that helps with cell function.
A year ago, Trainor told People that she was dedicated to her health and wellness journey after giving birth to her second child.
"I’m feeling fit. I’ve never been so fit," she told the outlet in March 2024. "I already told my household. I was like, ‘I am training for the Olympics, OK?’ I want to train and eat clean, and feel good when I’m dancing and singing. I don’t wanna be so winded, because right now, I’m winded."
Clearly, all her hard work has paid off as it's reflected in her dramatic body transformation.
Morgan Wallen Breaks His Social Media Silence After 'SNL' Incident
Over the weekend, country music star Morgan Wallen ignited quite a controversy when he bizarrely walked off the set of Saturday Night Live immediately after his appearance instead of taking part in the traditional Goodnight and Credits portion of the show. But he seems to be simply carrying on as if nothing happened.
At the conclusion of the show, the country music singer left the stage abruptly and immediately as the credits were still rolling while the rest of the crew exchanged pleasantries and congratulations on the stage. Wallen then posted a photo from the tarmac of the airport on his Instagram story with the caption "Get me to God's country."
The incident sparked outrage from SNL fans and even prompted a response from SNL star Kenan Thompson. The SNL star said he "definitely saw it" but wasn't exactly sure what the deal was.

— Billy Krumb (@ClubhouseCancer) March 30, 2025
"I don't know what goes through people's minds when they decide to do stuff like that. I don't know if he understood the assignment or not, or if he was really feeling a certain kind of way," Thompson told Entertainment Weekly.
Thompson thought that Wallen might have even had to use the bathroom.
"You see somebody before you get a chance to say hi or say good job or anything like that, they just dipping," Thompson said. "I thought maybe he had to go to the potty or something."
The SNL made it clear that Wallen's antics were definitely unusual.
"It's definitely a spike in the norm," Thompson says. "We're so used to everybody just turning around and high-fiving us, everybody's saying, 'Good job, good job, good job.' So when there's a departure from that, it's like, hmm, I wonder what that's about?"
"I guess it was just different because it just felt so abrupt," Thompson continued. "And it was already such a small grouping on the stage anyway. So it was just like, oh wow, that was pretty visible. You know what I'm saying? It was a pretty visible thing."
Wallen himself has not addressed the issue, but one report suggests that the move was actually pre-planned and was not intended to be a slight at SNL.

(Photo by John Shearer/Getty Images for for Morgan Wallen's One Night At A Time 2024) "Sources in Wallen’s camp say there’s nothing to the conjecture that the singer was signaling tension, maintaining that he had a good time and no slight was intended with either his prominent exit or his Instagram post," Variety reported.
"No slight was intended, and the buzz misreads the star just being off-the-cuff as usual," the outlet's report continued.
Regardless, it seems like Wallen is simply moving on with his life and career as usual, despite the controversy.
On Monday night, Wallen broke his silence on social media as he made his first public post since the controversy – but he didn't actually address the incident. Instead, he simply posted a video on Instagram promoting his new song "Come Back As A Redneck."
In the video, Wallen can be seen cleaning his rifle, shooting a target and riding a dirtbike through the woods with his new song playing in the background. The caption of the post read, "Maybe then you'll understand."
It's not clear whether or not Wallen intends to publicly address the SNL controversy. Bt as of now, it seems like he's planning to just move on as if nothing happened.
Hailey Bieber Breaks Her Silence on Justin Bieber Controversy
Over the weekend, multiple news outlets, social media content creators, and fans noticed that Hailey Bieber appeared to "unfollow" her husband, pop star Justin Bieber, on social media. She has now broken her silence on the rumors and controversy.
It has been a tumultuous few weeks for Justin Bieber on social media. Earlier this month, the pop superstar posted a message on his Instagram story in which he seemingly admitted that he had unacknowledged "hate" that was causing him to feel like he was "drowning"
“I was always told when I was a kid not to hate. But it made me feel like I wasn’t allowed to have it and so I didn’t tell anyone I’ve had it,” he wrote in the post on March 16. “Which made me feel like I have been drowning feeling unsafe to acknowledge it. I think we can only let hate go by first acknowledging it’s there. How couldn’t we feel hate from all of the hurt we have experienced?”
This post came just a few days after he made a different cryptic post on his Instagram story on March 13 in which he admitted that he has always felt “unworthy” of his success and felt like a “fraud.”

"I got anger issues too, but I wanna grow and not react so much smh," Bieber wrote in the caption of his post on Instagram.
He followed those posts by posting a stream of seemingly random selfies and photos over the past few days with little or no context. He even went "live" on Instagram on Saturday night, after which fans and news outlets began to notice that Justin was no longer listed in Hailey's "following" list on Instagram.
While that obviously led to a lot of attention and speculation from fans and the media, Hailey broke her silence on the issue on Monday.
In the comments section of a video detailing the controversy, Hailey claimed that it was simply a "glitch."
"It's a glitch. Didn’t unfollow him. Hope this helps!" Hailey commented on a TikTok video.
Hailey and Justin have been married since Sept. 13, 2018. They welcomed their first child, Jack, in August.
