Moafi's character is expected to bring a new dynamic to the already intense ER environment.

Wyle also stars as the department's seasoned physician, Dr. Michael 'Robby' Robinavitch. Along with Moafi, Season 2 will also feature newcomers Charles Baker, Irene Choi, Laëtitia Hollard and Lucas Iverson. FAQs: 1. Who does Sepideh Moafi play in The Pitt Season 2?

Beyoncé halts Cowboy Carter show at Houston midair as floating car tilts during ‘16 Carriages' performance
A dramatic moment during Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter Tour concert in Houston on Saturday night sent waves of concern through the packed NRG Stadium, as a mid-performance stunt malfunctioned midair. The global superstar was performing '16 Carriages' while seated in a suspended, velvet-wrapped red Cadillac when the vehicle began to tilt dangerously as it hovered above the crowd. Fan-captured footage of the incident shows the car slowly tipping sideways as it turned over one section of the stadium. Mid-song, Beyoncé is heard calling out, 'Stop, stop, stop,' as the vehicle's instability became apparent. The stunt, intended to give fans an intimate, overhead view while a montage of her career played on the big screen, had been executed without issue in previous shows. Swift action was taken by her team as stage and security personnel rushed to lower the Cadillac safely and help unbuckle the singer. Cheers of relief rang out from the audience as Beyoncé was carefully escorted back to the stage. Once safely on solid ground, Beyoncé seamlessly resumed her set. 'I know if I fall, y'all will catch me,' she told the roaring crowd, reaffirming the strong bond she shares with her hometown fans. Her company, Parkwood Entertainment, released a statement hours after the show, describing the event as a 'technical mishap.' No injuries were reported, and the remainder of the show proceeded without further incident. The Houston performance was one of the final stops of her critically acclaimed tour, which celebrates her 2025 Album of the Year win. Beyoncé is slated to return for a second Houston show on Sunday, followed by a Fourth of July performance in Washington, D.C. The Cowboy Carter Tour is set to conclude on July 26 in Las Vegas.

Chiefs' heiress Gracie Hunt sparks buzz with patriotic Chiefs-themed July 4th tribute and bold message on liberty
Gracie Hunt turns head with patriotic message for America (Image via her IG) As the Fourth of July approaches, NFL royalty and social media sensation Gracie Hunt has once again taken center stage—not just on the sidelines of Arrowhead Stadium, but across digital timelines. The daughter of Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt, Gracie is far more than a football heiress. With over 600,000 Instagram followers and a curated online presence that fuses fashion, fitness, faith, and fandom, she's steadily carving out a brand that reflects modern Americana through a glamorous lens. Gracie Hunt honors America with viral Fourth of July post from Arrowhead The former Miss Kansas USA and media-savvy heiress posted a cinematic Instagram reel capturing the energy of Arrowhead Stadium alongside fireworks, flag-filled visuals, and Chiefs fandom — all wrapped in a red, white, and blue palette. 'Where liberty dwells, there is my country,' she wrote, quoting Benjamin Franklin. With Benson Boone's 'Young American Heart' as the soundtrack, the post wasn't just visually striking — it was a masterclass in lifestyle branding rooted in faith and national pride. What set the message part was how seamlessly it fused tradition with influence. Gracie linked her Amazon storefront for Fourth of July must-haves, underscoring her business acumen while delivering an image of curated patriotism. This wasn't just about celebration — it was a statement of values, a nod to heritage, and a reminder that the Hunt name carries both weight and warmth. Earlier this week, Gracie also shared a golden-hour moment with her sister Ava Hunt, captioning a sweet family snapshot: 'Little sis, big love.' Joined by their mother, Tavia Hunt, the trio embraced summer chic — Gracie in a stylish black-and-white knit set, Ava in a pastel romper, and Tavia in an embroidered outfit — crafting what felt like a campaign shoot meets wholesome family album. Together, the posts display more than aesthetic finesse. They project unity, grace, and a message of values-first visibility, all while reinforcing the larger brand of the Kansas City Chiefs — one deeply tied to family, faith, and community. Also Read: After Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce break-in scares, Brad Pitt's mansion burglarized amid F1 film tour Clark Hunt is reportedly weighing major decisions around Arrowhead Stadium's future. And while he leads from the boardroom, Gracie is leading a cultural charge online — one that celebrates both the team's legacy and American ideals. Through fashion, faith-based captions, and personal moments, Gracie is not simply the Chiefs owner's daughter — she's quickly becoming one of the NFL's most visible ambassadors, particularly as the Fourth of July brings national pride to the forefront. Game On Season 1 continues with Mirabai Chanu's inspiring story. Watch Episode 2 here.

'I'm a completely different person': Mizkif reacts after FaZe Silky bans him from FaZe's 4th July party
(Image via X/@yoxic) Twitch streamer Mizkif is once again in hot water, but this time, for being banned from FaZe Clan's hyped 4th of July party. FaZe's Silky publicly called him out for past 'racist' behaviour, pulling the plug on Mizkif's invite. But Mizkif isn't fighting back. Instead, he's owning his past and calling himself a changed man. Silky Pulls the Plug on Mizkif's Invite It all started when Mizkif was set to attend FaZe's massive Fourth of July party, with fellow streamers like Ludwig, QTCinderella, and even Plaqueboymax expected to be there. But things took a turn when FaZe member Silky made it clear that Mizkif was not welcome. Live on stream, Silky didn't hold back, saying he had no interest in 'weird people' and didn't want someone with a 'racist past' at the FaZe House. The invite, originally extended by FaZe's Lacy, was publicly revoked. Mizkif's Response: 'I Get It' Unlike what you might expect, Mizkif didn't throw shade back. In fact, during a recent stream, he said he understands where Silky is coming from. 'I don't blame Silky for what he said... It's understandable ,' he admitted. He didn't deny the past. In fact, he leaned into it. Mizkif admitted to saying dumb things when he was younger, just like, according to him, ' everyone else in the industry back then .' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Joyful Cirque Spectacle GCE Read More Undo But his main message was this: That's not who I am anymore. 'I Was 22. I'm 30 Now.' Mizkif addressed the elephant in the room directly—his past use of racial slurs. 'I said this sh** when I was twenty-two,' he confessed. 'But I'm a completely different person than what I was when I was twenty-two.' He also pointed out the hypocrisy that many content creators have a messy past. Without naming names, he mentioned FaZe Banks and others, suggesting that growth is part of being online for years. Mizkif Destroyed by Faze Silky.. Banned.. Mizkif Responds.. Fans Are Divided (As Always) Twitter, Reddit, and Twitch chats are all split. Some people are backing Silky's move, saying there's no excuse, ever. Others believe in second chances and feel Mizkif has shown enough growth over the years to deserve one. No word yet on whether Silky and Mizkif will actually talk things out. Mizkif says he's open to a conversation—but the ball's in Silky's court. One thing's for sure though: this drama has put FaZe's 4th of July bash on everyone's radar for reasons no one expected. Whether Mizkif ends up at the party or not, the real fireworks have already started. Game On Season 1 continues with Mirabai Chanu's inspiring story. Watch Episode 2 here.
