Drew Sidora addresses Porsha Williams drama over Ralph Pittman filming during RHOA season 16
While Sidora had previously appeared on camera with Williams' ex-fiancé Dennis McKinley in connection to her music career, she said that situation was rooted in business and transparency. In contrast, she questioned the intent behind Williams' meeting with Pittman, suggesting it was driven by personal motives during a vulnerable time in her divorce.
'How would it look for me to go film with Simon [Guobadia]?' Sidora asked co-stars Angela Oakley and Cynthia Bailey, referencing Williams' own divorce. 'You went behind my back and filmed with Ralph for no reason… Obviously, you did it to be hurtful.'
Still, the tension between the women began to ease during a cast trip to Grenada. Sidora admitted she could have communicated better, noting she should've called Williams to explain her work with McKinley rather than sending a vague text.
Williams, meanwhile, shared her side of the story on the After Show. She acknowledged her frustration over the situation with McKinley and felt the friendship deserved more direct communication. By the time the Grenada dinner took place, she had shifted focus to repairing her relationship with McKinley and no longer wanted conflict with Sidora.
Though they didn't fully reconcile, the pair agreed to move forward and avoid further drama. 'I hear you, Drew, and I receive that,' Williams said. 'It's over.'

Amber Heard tilts toward theatre life in Spain following name change
Amber Heard appears to have turned a new page in her life, personally and professionally, since relocating to Spain in the aftermath of her legal dispute with Johnny Depp. The actress, who now reportedly goes by the pseudonym Martha Jane Cannary, has embraced a quieter existence in Madrid while simultaneously making her professional stage debut. After the conclusion of her high-profile defamation trial in 2022, Heard left California and settled first on Mallorca and then in Madrid. She reportedly adopted the name Martha Jane Cannary, an homage to the legendary Calamity Jane, as a way to reclaim privacy and anonymity in public life. She speaks fluent Spanish and has described Spain as her home, choosing it for its relative calm following intense media scrutiny in the US. In May 2025 Heard surprised fans by announcing that she had welcomed twins, Agnes and Ocean, joining her daughter Oonagh Paige, born in 2021 via surrogate. Her Instagram post on Mother's Day reflected both achievement and fulfilment, 'My daughter Agnes and my son Ocean are keeping my hands (and my heart) full,' she wrote. Professionally, Heard has shifted from film to theatre, performing in Spirit of the People, a bilingual play by Jeremy O. Harris at the Williamstown Theatre Festival in Massachusetts. This marks her first acting role since 2023 and her debut on any theatrical stage. The production ran through early August 2025 and Gilbert produced increasingly positive feedback. Published photos and reviews praised her performance. Vanity Fair dubbed her portrayal 'exceptional particularly for someone in her professional theatrical debut,' noting her ability to embody a complex, Williams‑style character stretched across English and Spanish lines. The role showcased Heard's language fluency and emotional range. Fans and festival-goers echoed the sentiment, showering her with admiration and thanks on social media. At present, Heard has no confirmed upcoming film projects listed on IMDb, and there have been no public announcements regarding a return to Hollywood or the screen. Instead, her current trajectory appears focused on motherhood and artistic experimentation onstage. The name change, the move abroad, the bilingual theatre piece, and her expanding family suggest a deliberate departure from her previous public persona.

Why did Hayley Williams delete her album before dropping 17 singles?
Hayley Williams is turning the album concept on its head. Just days ago, the Paramore frontwoman quietly uploaded 17 new songs to her website, each as a clickable file with password protection. There was no track list, no official album name, just raw audio files scattered like fragments of a desktop. Then, without warning, she took them all down. Now, the same 17 tracks have returned, not as an album, but as individually released singles through her new label, Post Atlantic. Fans hoping for a cohesive record will have to wait. Williams is adamant these are not meant to be sequenced. 'It's 17 songs. Seventeen singles,' reads the blunt confirmation across fan circles. No title. No order. Just music. The release marks her first major project since she and Paramore exited their longtime contract with Atlantic Records. Going fully independent, she's partnered with Secretly Distribution to drop the songs on streaming platforms, sidestepping traditional album cycles. Among the tracks is True Believer, a fiery critique of American evangelicalism, echoing her recent statements about the Christian Contemporary Music industry. Another focus track, GLUM, plays with vocal manipulation, transforming her signature voice into something glitchy and unfamiliar. Fans have latched onto songs like Ice in My OJ and Discovery Channel, the latter repurposing a chorus from the Bloodhound Gang's 1999 hit The Bad Touch. Rumours persist that the project is secretly titled Ego or Ego Death, but nothing official has been announced. Instead, Williams seems to be inviting listeners into a choose-your-own-album experience, one that challenges how music is consumed and categorised. In true Hayley fashion, she's thrown out the rulebook. And fans are left piecing together the story, one single at a time.

Why did Hayley Williams suddenly pull her secret album offline?
Hayley Williams has pulled a vanishing act on her fans. Days after quietly uploading her surprise solo album Ego to her website, the Paramore frontwoman has deleted all 17 tracks without explanation. In place of the music now sits a simple message: "Hello, there. Thank you for listening." And just like that, Ego has disappeared, possibly for good. The mysterious rollout began last week when Williams' latest track Mirtazapine premiered on WNXP Nashville. Not long after, the full album, featuring titles like Kill Me, Glum, and Brotherly Hate, appeared on her official site. But it wasn't freely available. To access the music, fans had to purchase from her hair brand, Good Dye Young, and enter a 16-digit code. Those who did were granted temporary access to what now feels like a ghost record. Theories are circulating. Williams, now an independent artist following the expiration of her major label contract, may be experimenting with exclusivity, or simply expressing disillusionment with the traditional release model. Some speculate that the removal was part of the concept itself: a record about ego that self-destructs. The stunt has echoes of her previous unpredictable moves. She surprise-dropped Flowers for Vases / descansos in 2021, and before that, released her solo debut Petals for Armor in 2020. More recently, she's appeared on tracks with Turnstile, Moses Sumney, and David Byrne, who has a new album Who Is the Sky? releasing in September featuring Williams on What Is the Reason For It? As for Ego, it's unclear whether the album will ever reach streaming platforms or return to her site. For now, it exists only in fragments, downloaded by a few and discussed in whispers.
