Man claiming Jay-Z is his father drops paternity lawsuit after years of seeking DNA test in court
In a January interview with the Daily Mail, Satterthwaite urged Jay-Z to take a paternity test, saying, 'If he is not, why can't he prove me wrong? Go to the court room and do what everyone else has to do. I can take a no. I can take being embarrassed, I just can't take him not saying nothing.'
He added, 'I would never hate Jay-Z, I respect him for everything he did. I have been going through a whole lot for so many years because of this case. Me and my mom and my god mom we have seen the worst in people.'
Satterthwaite stated he would continue seeking the truth, saying, 'I am going to fight until I am not here no more. If it takes another 10 years. Another 50. I may take this to the grave with me.'
The case returned to public discussion earlier this month when Nicki Minaj referenced Satterthwaite in a social media post alongside an image of Jay-Z.
The reason for the lawsuit's dismissal is not clear, and it is unknown whether it has been dismissed with or without prejudice. Satterthwaite may still have the option to refile in the future.

Justin Timberlake faces backlash on tour for poor performance amid claims he's 'in a rut'
Justin Timberlake is reportedly 'in a rut' as fans criticise his ongoing Forget Tomorrow World Tour for 'lazy' performances and lack of energy. According to insiders, the pop star 'knows he's lost his mojo' and is struggling with declining morale during the tour. The backlash intensified after a viral video from England's Lytham Festival showed Timberlake lashing out at his crew over sound issues. Concertgoers in Romania and Ireland further accused him of lip-syncing, minimal vocal effort, and being disconnected from audiences, prompting many to walk out mid-show. A source told the Daily Mail that Timberlake 'wants to create new music' and is weary of performing his old hits repeatedly. Fans online have also expressed disappointment. Timberlake reportedly appeared late on stage and sang only a few words of each song, wearing sunglasses throughout and moving listlessly. His wife, Jessica Biel, is said to be concerned about the toll the tour is taking on his mental and physical health. 'Jessica thinks Justin has aged years since he started the tour,' a separate source revealed, adding that he's become 'short-tempered both on and off stage.' While Timberlake has yet to publicly respond, many fans are urging a return to form, suggesting an NSYNC reunion might help lift spirits and restore energy to his performances.

Man claiming Jay-Z is his father drops paternity lawsuit after years of seeking DNA test in court
Rymir Satterthwaite, who has claimed for years that Jay-Z is his biological father, has dropped his paternity lawsuit, according to Hip-Hop-N-More. Satterthwaite has alleged that Jay-Z had a relationship with his late mother, Wanda, in the early 1990s, claims which Jay-Z has consistently denied. In a January interview with the Daily Mail, Satterthwaite urged Jay-Z to take a paternity test, saying, 'If he is not, why can't he prove me wrong? Go to the court room and do what everyone else has to do. I can take a no. I can take being embarrassed, I just can't take him not saying nothing.' He added, 'I would never hate Jay-Z, I respect him for everything he did. I have been going through a whole lot for so many years because of this case.

Pokémon Legends Z-A confirms return of fan-favourite Emma from X and Y in new Lumiose adventure
Pokémon Legends Z-A has officially confirmed the return of Emma, a fan-favourite character from Pokémon X and Y, during the latest Pokémon Presents showcase. Emma, first introduced as a young girl under the care of Looker in Lumiose City, was seen in the new Z-A trailer, confirming long-standing fan theories about her presence in this instalment. In Pokémon X and Y, Emma inherits the Looker Bureau, and the trailer suggests she continues to run it in the futuristic Lumiose City setting of Z-A. Her outfit also hints that she may still be operating as Essentia, maintaining her role in Lumiose's crime-fighting efforts. The trailer has raised questions among players regarding the exact timeline of Pokémon Legends Z-A, as Emma appears older but not so much that it would suggest a complete rebuild of Lumiose City from its original appearance in X and Y to the advanced cityscape shown in Z-A. Fans have speculated about possible time-related elements or rapid urban development within the Kalos region, although these remain unconfirmed. Alongside Emma, the trailer featured the return of Mable, previously a member of Team Flare, now seen as the director of the Pokémon Research Lab, prompting discussions about her potential role and character development in Z-A. The Pokémon Presents showcase also highlighted new characters, including Naveen, Lida, and either Urbain or Taunie, and revealed the new Mega Evolution, Mega Dragonite, adding to the excitement for the upcoming release. Pokémon Legends Z-A is scheduled to launch on Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 on October 16 2025.
