WNBA star sends crude sexual message to her glamorous rival on orange carpet before All-Star party
WNBA star Courtney Williams has come under fire after making a crude sexual joke towards one of her league rivals at the All-Star party. On Thursday night, the league's biggest names - including the likes of Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese - gathered for the start of the two-day event in Indianapolis. As the festivities got under way, WNBA duo Williams and Natisha Hiedeman began live streaming from their joint channel 'StudBudz'. As they were on the orange carpet in Indianapolis, Minnesota Lynx star Williams spotted WNBA rival Gabby Williams making her way into the event. Lynx star Williams declared that she was keen to speak with the Seattle Storm forward and said: 'I've got to let her know [that] she looks good'. Eventually, Lynx star Williams went over to the American-French forward and reeled off a list of compliments before saying: 'If it don't work out, call me fine s***'. GABBY ON STUDBUDZ 😁😁😁 — sriya (@pussitionz) July 17, 2025 It appeared that Lynx star Williams was making reference to the rumors that Storm forward Williams is dating fellow WNBA star Marine Johannes. Neither player has confirmed nor denied the claims. However, back in May, Johannes' New York Liberty teammate Jonquel Jones seemingly confirmed the two players' sexuality and hinted at a relationship. An Instagram account The Fruit Slice shared a thread regarding the openly gay players in the WNBA. Jones replied to it: 'A yall missing some of our points! How Gabby on the list but not Marine..? Jaylyn Sherrod? Leo is as well. We number 1 and also we have a 4 out starting 5'. Fans were quick to point out that Johannes hadn't publicly come out. Jones then said: 'I thought they was out lmao my badddd'. Meanwhile, Minnesota Lynx star Williams was previously dating N'Shya Seigle and the couple shared an engagement announcement back in November. However, the post has since been deleted and, during a recent StudBudz stream, she confirmed that she is now single. Elsewhere on the night, Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark was spotted enjoying a wild night out as she toasted the beginning of the WNBA's All-Star weekend in style. The 23-year-old welcomed the biggest names in the WNBA to Indianapolis this week as she prepares to captain one of the teams for Saturday's All-Star game, despite no longer being able to take to the court. And while Clark appeared bright and breezy during an appearance on Good Morning America Friday morning, she had certainly been enjoying herself the night before when she and her peers descended on Indianapolis nightclub, INVY, for the All Star Champagne Launch Party. In several videos shared to social media, the guard could be seen bopping along to the music with a drink in hand. At one point, Clark had found her way behind the DJ booth with her arm wrapped around the emcee. When he thrust the microphone in her face and asked if she was 'ready to turn up' Clark let out shout of 'woo' and hoisted her can, which appeared to be a hard seltzer, into the air.

Kneecap's Glasgow Hydro gig sells out as rap trio headline their biggest Scottish show yet
In a jibe to First Minister John Swinney, the band said "A very special thank you to our Head of PR in Scotland Mr John Swinney... best in the business". Kneecap is set to make a return to Glasgow this winter as part of their "biggest run of shows ever" with tickets selling out shortly after going on sale. The Belfast based rap trio - Mo Chara, Móglaí Bap, and DJ Próvaí - will perform 14 shows across Scotland, England and Wales later this year. The tour includes a headline performances at Glasgow's OVO Hydro on November 30, 2025, marking the groups biggest show in Glasgow to date. Originally slated to play 11 shows, the group extended the tour by adding three additional dates in Leeds, Sheffield, and Manchester after pre-sale tickets sold out almost immediately due to overwhelming demand. And now it appears the gig has sold out. Taking to Instagram, Kneecap's official account wrote: "Glasgow SOLD OUT in a few hours. 13,000 Scottish F****** comrades... let's go!" In a jibe to First Minister John Swinney, they added: "A very special thank you to our Head of PR in Scotland Mr John Swinney... best in the business". Swinney played down his beef with Kneecap after he was called out by the Irish rappers at a gig in Glasgow earlier this month. The SNP leader previously warned some of the group's political sloganeering was "beyond the pale". The group hit back during their O2 Academy show on July 8, with Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh, who performs under the name Mo Chara asking the crowd: " What's your First Minister's name?" "They stopped us playing TRNSMT but they can't stop us playing Glasgow." Taking to Instagram to initially announce the tour, Kneecap's official account wrote: "Here we go. We're back in November across Scotland, England and Wales to play our biggest run of shows ever. "The Prime Minister himself cant stop could stop sending bombs to Israel but that's another story..." Alongside their tour poster - which shows the trio in a bright green car emblazoned with the phrase "Irish Independence Traders" - the band also made a nod to their political stance. The car's number plate reads "26+6=1," a well-known slogan advocating for a united Ireland, referring to the 26 counties of the Republic of Ireland and the 6 counties of Northern Ireland coming together as one. Their winter tour follows controversy earlier this year when Kneecap were originally headlining the King Tut's stage at TRNSMT 2025 but were dropped from the line-up in May after Police Scotland raised public safety concerns. At the time, a Police Scotland spokesperson stated: "Any decision on the line-up at TRNSMT is for the organisers, and there was no prior consultation with Police Scotland before acts were booked. "Officers have highlighted that the potential reaction of such a large audience to this band would require a significant policing operation in order to support the delivery of a safe event. "We have also passed on information from the public around safety concerns to allow organisers to make an informed decision on the running of the festival." Following their removal, Kneecap instead played a sold-out show at Glasgow's O2 Academy on Tuesday, July 8 - the week of the festival - insisting they wouldn't let fans down. Over 2,500 tickets were snapped up in just 80 seconds. Now, the trio is scaling up, preparing for their biggest Scottish show yet at the 14,000-capacity OVO Hydro.

Katie Price reveals she is getting a new tattoo as she shares half-naked snap after daughter Princess moved out of her home amid her reality show ban
Katie Price has revealed she is getting a new tattoo as she shared a half-naked snap on Instagram. The former glamour model, 47, revealed earlier this week that her daughter Princess has moved out of her home. Katie said the move came due to Princess filming a reality TV show with her dad Peter Andre's management, The Can Group - who have banned Katie from appearing in the series. Brushing off the drama, Katie took to Instagram on Friday to share that she had opted for a new inking. A racy snap showed the star lying on the bed at the tattoo parlour with her array of other back inkings on display. 'Tattoo time [nervous face],' she wrote - but didn't revealed where or what the new tattoo would be. It comes just one day after Katie revealed her daughter Princess has moved out of her home. The 18-year-old, who she shares with ex Peter Andre, has embarked on her own career, with Princess currently filming her very own reality show. And speaking to sister Sophie on the latest episode of The Katie Price Show podcast, Katie told how her eldest daughter is no longer living with her due to filming her ITV programme - which Katie is not allowed to appear on. But as she discussed the situation, the former glamour model, 47 - who was recently banned from her girl's 18th birthday - couldn't help but make a dig at Peter and his management company, Can Associates, who are making the show. She told Sophie: 'Princess was living with me but because she's doing her documentary, and I'm not even allowed to breathe near the documentary, she has been predominantly staying at her dads while she is filming.' The subject came up as Katie spoke about her hunt for a new home amid the sale of her £5k-a-month rental property, with Sophie suggesting that Katie only needs a three-bed home for her and her youngest children, with a sofa bed for when the other kids visit. However, Katie was quick to insist that Princess would soon be back, while also noting that second eldest son Junior and his girlfriend Jasmine may move back in too as they do not like renting. She shared: 'It's's only because she has been filming that she has been at Pete's because obviously I'm not allowed anywhere near it. She has only got about two weeks left of filming.' 'Princess was living with me but because she's doing her documentary, and I'm not even allowed to breathe near the documentary, she has been predominantly staying at her dads while she is filming' [Princess with Junior and Peter in 2022] She added: 'I'm that kind of mum where I have to make sure my kids have bedrooms if they want it, you never know do you.' Katie's words comes just weeks after she blasted Peter's management, The Can Group, after she was banned from their daughter Princess' 18th birthday. The TV personality went on a rant about the awkward snub with her sister Sophie in a recent episode of the podcast. MailOnline's Katie Hind revealed Katie was unable to attend Princess' celebrations because the event was being filmed for her forthcoming fly-on-the-wall ITV television series - which Katie has been banned from appearing on. In the episode, Katie said: 'Princess is now officially an adult so mummy and Princess can now go out together. If certain people would let her be seen with me.' Sophie said: 'I noticed in her 18th birthday pictures she was wearing the shoes you bought her for Christmas.' 'Oh did she? I love that', said Katie. Katie added: 'Everyone knows she's doing this documentary - and I'm not in it. Certain people don't think it's good for Princess to be seen with me. Certain people that used to look after me.' Her sister said: 'You aren't on brand Katie. You are too risky Katie that's why. Katie added: 'It's pathetic. I'm her mother. It's so sad. When certain people who used to look after me are now looking after...' Her sister Sophie then urged Katie to 'save it for another day.' Katie was allegedly referring to her old PR team, who now manage her ex husband Peter, 52, and their children Junior and Princess.
