Demi Lovato is ready to talk about all her difficult experiences.

In her new documentary Child Star, which marks her directorial debut, Lovato did not shy away from sharing her dark moments.

The American singer went on revealing the bitter truth about life and career, explaining how the fame impacted her mental health.

“I didn’t realize that it would have such a negative impact on my mental health,” the 32-year-old star said.

She continued, “And unfortunately, sometimes that looks explosive, like an incident where you punch your backup dancer on an airplane or you overdose from heroin.”

For the unversed, back in 2010, Lovato punched a dancer on stage where she was performing for The Jonas Brothers tour. The incident led to the Sorry Not Sorry songstress to go to rehab and take a break from music.

As revealed in her documentary, the Disney alum was abusing drugs and alcohol at the time, which caused her three strokes and risked a near fatal heart attack.

However, the dancer incident was the moment that she realised that this could not go on.

Lovato shared that creating the personal documentary gave her a chance to right her wrongs.

“Talking to people who knew me at a different time in my life was challenging because I wanted to apologize for my behavior,” the Camp Rock actress confessed.

Looking back at her past, the actress recognises “I wasn’t the nicest person to work with at times because I was struggling so much internally, and I was under a lot of pressure.”

This comes after the Grey’s Anatomy star shared in a recent interview that she’s in a “really good place” now and “figuring out” her sound to make her musical comeback. 

Fiona Harvey, who claims to be the real-life Martha featured in Richard Gadd’s true story, expressed fear following Baby Reindeer’s success at the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards.

After the ceremony, where the series received four accolades among its 11 nominations, she told the Daily Mail that she is afraid to leave her home due to the potential for attacks.

“I’m afraid to go outside out of fear of being attacked. Some weeks, I don’t leave my apartment,” Harvey shared. “I’m suffering from constant panic attacks, chest pains, anxiety, nightmares, depression, nervousness, stomach pains, loss of appetite, fear, and insomnia.”

Baby Reindeer won the Emmy for Best Limited or Anthology Series, and Jessica Gunning, who portrayed Martha in the Netflix series, took home the award for Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series.

Additionally, Richard Gadd earned accolades for Best Actor in a Limited Series and Best Writer for his work on the project.

Harvey’s lawyer, Richard Roth, also spoke to the Daily Mail, describing the situation as a source of suffering for his client.

“The disparity in their treatment is obvious. Richard Gadd is now a multiple Emmy Award-winning star, thanks to Netflix’s fictitious ‘true story,’ while she continues to suffer,” he noted.

In May, Harvey and her legal team filed a $170 million lawsuit against Netflix, claiming she was defamed “on a magnitude and scale without precedent.”

She argues in the lawsuit that Baby Reindeer misleadingly labels its events as a “true story” in the first episode, which she describes as “the biggest lie in television history.”

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is facing renewed scrutiny after a resurfaced interview from 22 years ago on Late Night With Conan O’Brien has gone viral amid his recent arrest on sex trafficking charges. 

The music mogul, currently being held at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, was denied bail after his arrest in New York as part of an ongoing sex trafficking probe. 

Combs has since been placed on suicide watch following his indictment on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for prostitution.

The 2002 interview with Conan O’Brien has resurfaced in light of these developments, featuring Combs making troubling comments about “locking women up” at parties. 

While offering party tips, he joked, “This is what you need to do. Women. Beautiful women, of course. Beautiful men for the ladies, of course,” adding that he had “locks on the doors” to prevent women from leaving. 

The clip has since gone viral, fueling further backlash against the disgraced artist amidst the ongoing investigation.

While giving tips, Diddy explained, “A lot of ladies drink water at parties… if you don’t have what they need, they’re gonna leave.” 

He added, “Gotta keep them there. You need locks on the doors.” Host Conan O’Brien, visibly uncomfortable, responded, “Okay, this is sounding kind of dangerous now.” 

He brushed off the comment, joking, “It’s a little kinky,” before continuing with his advice.

The interview took an even stranger turn when he suggested turning up the heat at parties, advising against air conditioning. 

“Heat affects the alcohol, and you know, everybody also gets a little more comfortable and loose,” he said, adding, “builds up a nice little sweat.” 

O’Brien cut in, saying, “That just sounds disgusting,” before Diddy concluded his list with, “You need good music, and you need me, of course.”

Jon Watts revealed how he differentiated Brad Pitt and George Clooney’s roles in Wolfs from their characters in the Ocean’s franchise.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, the Wolfs creator shared that he wasn’t focused on this distinction because he aimed to create something that didn’t feel like the Ocean’s crew reuniting.

“Well, they’re friends in the Oceans movies, this was immediately the opposite of that,” he explained, highlighting the key difference. “They hate each other, which immediately sets a different tone and gives them something fun to play with.”

He added that their real-life friendship creates a tension for the audience: “You just want them to be friends.”

“You’re like, can’t you see they’re perfect for each other? [Laughs] It frustrates people in a good way,” Watts, 43, noted. “It’s the opposite of an odd-couple pairing because they’re the same guy; it’s not two different characters. It takes half the movie to realise that.”

George, 63, and Brad, 60, first teamed up as Danny Ocean and Rusty Ryan in Steven Soderbergh’s 2001 heist film Ocean’s Eleven.

The duo reprised their roles in Ocean’s Twelve (2004) and Ocean’s Thirteen (2007) before reuniting for Wolfs after 16 years.
