Internet Explodes Over Claims Shannon Sharpe Paid $23M to Gabby Zuniga. (Image via shannonsharpe84/instagram;@sheiskarli/instagram) The internet is not letting Shannon Sharpe breathe this week. After rumors surfaced online that the former NFL star and media mogul allegedly paid $23 million to settle a civil sexual assault lawsuit with model Gabby Zuniga, fans absolutely lost it. While no official number has been confirmed, that didn't stop Twitter from turning the whole thing into a savage roast fest, one tweet at a time. The rumor: Did Shannon Sharpe really pay $23 million? Here's what actually happened: In April 2025, Sharpe was sued for $50 million by Gabriella Zuniga, represented by high-profile attorney Tony Buzbee. On July 18, the lawsuit was quietly settled and dismissed with prejudice, meaning it can't be refiled. But nowhere in the official filings does it say how much was paid.

Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda have become the talk of the town with their debut film Saiyaara, which is smashing records at the box office. According to the latest update by Sacnilk, the romantic drama has now crossed Rs 190 crore in just 8 days, making it one of the biggest blockbusters of the year. On its second Friday, Saiyaara added Rs 17.50 crore to its tally, pushing the total box office collection to Rs 190 crore. The film had a record-breaking opening with Rs 21.5 crore on day one and saw its highest single-day figure on Sunday at Rs 35.75 crore. Despite being a weekday release, Saiyaara managed to maintain a strong grip at the box office throughout the week, ending its first week at a massive Rs 172.75 crore. The Ahaan Panday-Aneet Padda starrer is now outperforming several Bollywood biggies. With its latest collection, Saiyaara has surpassed the lifetime business of Sikandar, Sitaare Zameen Par, and Akshay Kumar's Housefull 5, which ended its run at Rs 183.3 crore. With no major releases this Friday—Ajay Devgn's Son of Sardaar 2 has been postponed to August 1—Saiyaara is expected to continue its blockbuster run through its second weekend as well. Directed by Shiv Rawail and produced by Yash Raj Films' CEO Akshaye Widhani, Saiyaara revolves around the love story of Krish Kapoor, an aspiring musician played by Ahaan Panday, and Vaani Batra, portrayed by Aneet Padda. The film explores their romance and heartbreak, especially after a dramatic twist forces Vaani to walk away from Krish. Critics and audiences alike have praised the film's fresh storytelling, the sizzling chemistry between the leads, and its chartbuster music, which has become a viral sensation. With glowing word-of-mouth and no competition in theatres, Saiyaara is well on its way to entering the Rs 200 crore club soon.
