Conor McGregor is undoubtedly one of the biggest names in the history of the world of Mma. His star power is undeniable as he always breaks pay-per-view records for any event he headlines. He is known to have beef with a lot of people thanks to his infamous trash talking skills and more. With that said, it appears he addressed his beef with Sydney Sweeney and it changed in a big way.
Sydney Sweeney in Euphoria
In late October 2021, McGregor himself dropped the bombshell that the UFC was eyeing April for his comeback to the Octagon. It had been a while since he stepped into the cage, with his last bout dating back to July 2021 when he faced off against Dustin Poirier. Even now, it isn’t known when he will actually return for good to the Octagon.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta is preparing for a highly anticipated comeback, ready to shake things up by bidding farewell to many of the previous cast members of the beloved reality series. Once the crown jewel of the Housewives franchise, Rhoa has experienced a decline in recent years. Last season was crowned the worst in Rhoa history. However, the upcoming "Sweet 16" season brings good news as Porsha Williams makes her triumphant return, while Kandi Burruss officially exits the show after joining in season 2. Excitingly, Porsha has signed a scripted talent deal with NBCUniversal, solidifying her presence beyond reality TV.

Porsha Williams Guobadia — who is now going by her married name — will return to “The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” Bravo announced Tuesday, in the first cast announcement of what will be the show’s rebooted Season 16. Williams Guobadia, always a fan favorite, was on “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” from Seasons 5-13, and, in a rare voluntary departure for the franchise, left the show in September 2021.
In an interview with Variety a few months after that, she spoke of her then-upcoming marriage to Simon Guobadia, and said she wanted to spend as much time as she could with her young daughter, Pilar.
“I just want as much time with her as possible,” she said. “And with me in the past dealing with mental health, I knew that I needed to be as healthy mentally as I could be. No drama, etc. Just in a happy peaceful place for my baby girl.

But thankfully, country icon Dolly Parton understands the importance of making space for non-humans in fashion. On Feb. 21, the two-hour special Dolly Parton’s Pet Gala will premiere on CBS and Paramount+.

The Beverly Hilton’s International Ballroom was abuzz Sunday evening with the rolling thunder of excited conversations, clinking glasses and the general whoosh of pedestrian traffic around a party packed with mega-stars and supernovas including Taylor Swift, Oprah Winfrey and Bruce Springsteen.
But when Steven Yeun stepped up to the stage to accept his trophy for “Beef,” the din fell by several decibels. The emotion in his voice as he spoke of his feelings of “isolation and separateness” carried through the ballroom, causing silence followed by rapturous applause.
The respect shown to Yeun was one of many notable moments that you had to be room where it happens to fully appreciate. As always, a big part of the fun of attending the Globes is the people watching and the chance to gauge reactions to the ceremony from a room full of industry insiders.
Here’s a rundown of highlights from those observations.

Reality star Savannah Chrisley made things publicly official with her new boyfriend, Robert Shiver, last week, but her father, Todd Chrisley, is “very against” meeting her new beau while locked up behind bars.

Black Label Media, consisting of sisters Molly and Rachel Smith and twin brothers Trent and Thad Luckinbill, have returned to the screen with their calling card: a Benicio Del Toro-led crime thriller.
The independent production and finance company, most known for producing the Sicario films and co-financing La La Land, is set to release Grant Singer’s Reptile this Friday on Netflix, and it’s another example of Black Label’s commitment to preserving mid-budget films, as well as genres that are less prioritized now by the major studios.
Knowing how Del Toro works from their previous two Sicario films, Black Label teamed him up early with Reptile co-writer/director Singer and co-writer Benjamin Brewer, so that he didn’t have to present his own rewrites and suggestions during production. And due to the pandemic shutdown, the added collaboration time has now resulted in Del Toro’s first co-writing credit on a feature film.

Wardrobe stylist Asha Daniels is speaking out about her lawsuit against Lizzo. Daniels, a professional clothing designer, designed the wardrobe for the dancers who will be on Lizzo’s 2023 tour.
In court docs obtained by Et on Thursday, Daniels is alleging that the singer — whose real name is Melissa Jefferson — condones a sexualized, racially charged and illegal work environment. The suit alleges that Lizzo allowed her management team to express racist and fatphobic comments, mock Black women, deny workers medical care and forced Daniels to endure degrading sexual harassment.
Lizzo is not the only one being sued. Her production company, Big Grrrl Big Touring, Inc. (Bgbt), wardrobe manager Amanda Nomura, and tour manager Carlina Gugliotta, are also named defendants.
Daniels tells Et’s Rachel Smith that she was grateful for the opportunity to work with Lizzo when her mentor presented it to her. “I thought, you know, this is an amazing opportunity.
