The allegations against the water polo star surfaced in the suit filed last month by former teammate Romain, who says Van der Woude subjected him to months of racist harassment and sexual abuse while playing on Harvard-Westlake's elite team.
Baldwin described the Rust tragedy as unspeakably difficult and very painful, stating it pushed him into a more reclusive lifestyle. He mentioned, 'I wound up staying home a lot. I was home with my kids for three-and-a-half years.'
He should be dead. He believed and had many moments with himself thinking that he was going to die. Instead, he now has a second chance, and this is actually what he needed to happen.
And by "Who-dom," I don't mean the Seussian variety but the taxonomy coined by 's Lindsey Weber and Bobby Finger: the vast, sub-stratospheric tier of celebrity occupied by figures whose fame is intensely meaningful to some and virtually nonexistent to everyone else. Whos are defined in opposition to Thems, the indisputable celebrities known to most except those living under a rock or who willingly reject the very notion of pop culture,
We've all been there. Scrolling through social media at 2 AM, crafting the perfect caption for that sunset photo, or debating whether to post about that promotion. But somewhere along the way, I started noticing patterns in what people share online, including my own posts. The more I observed, the clearer it became: certain types of posts scream insecurity louder than any confession ever could.
West is figuring out her style as any tween would and should—and in front of the entire world, no less. That includes experimenting with beauty and fashion looks and, yes, piercings (with her parents' permission, of course). I'm sure getting cyberbullied by the entire world is doing far more damage than a little ring on her finger, so please, have some compassion.
We went to a restaurant the other night, and the waitress kept calling me by my name. She was like, 'Khloé, do you want another drink?' Whatever. And True was going, 'How does she know who you are?' And I go, 'Oh, I just come here all the time.' Which I don't, but they don't realize that we're on TV. Like, they don't know the difference, 'cause I'm not talking about it," she recalled on the On Purpose podcast.

However, he says, there's nuance within that. A truth that might startle most couples is that more communication is not always better communication. He explains that discovering this doesn't mean now resorting to playing games or withholding feelings: Instead, they should try to focus on learning the difference between healthy expression and over-processing.
Dispatch audio of Spears' arrest reveals that, as with the incident in October, she was seen driving her black BMW convertible, swerving in and out of lanes on the freeway, as well as speeding. Starting at about 8:13 p.m. the California Highway Patrol sent all units to respond and pursued her for nearly an hour.
This comes after millions of women, myself included, have spent years trying to unlearn the toxic messages we were fed in our youth. That beauty equals thinness. That discipline means restriction. That our bodies must be controlled and minimized to be acceptable. We fought for size diversity, for the radical idea that you can be beautiful, strong and worthy without disappearing. And just as that movement was starting to shift the cultural tide, here comes this trend of pharmaceutical shrinking that pretends thinness is wellness.
Paris Hilton here presents us with an unbearable act of docu-self-love, avowedly a behind-the-scenes study of her second studio album, Infinite Icon, and where she's at as a musician, survivor and mom. But maybe there is, in fact, nothing behind the scenes; judging by this, the scenes are all there is: Insta-exhibitionism, empty phrases and show. Hilton's second album no doubt has its admirers and detractors, and her fans are perfectly happy with it.
