Trump floats revoking Rosie O'Donnell's U.S. citizenship
1 of 2 | Rosie O'Donnell on Saturday dared President Donald Trump to try to revoke her citizenship after he threatened to do so on social media. File Photo by John Angelillo/UPI | License Photo July 12 (UPI) -- President Donald Trump has suggested he might revoke actress Rosie O'Donnell's citizenship without saying what spurred the notion. O'Donnell moved to Ireland shortly before Trump was sworn in for his second term as president. Trump on Saturday morning called O'Donnell a "threat to humanity" and someone who "is not in the best interests of our great country" in a Truth Social post. The actress in March announced she moved out of the United States on Jan. 15 for political and personal reasons. "It's been heartbreaking to see what's happening politically and hard for me personally as well," O'Donnell said, as reported by USA Today. "The personal is political, as we all know," she added. O'Donnell and Trump have clashed since before he first became president in 2017. The actress formerly was a co-host on "The View" from 2006 to 2007 and 2014 to 2015. She asked if Trump is "rattled again" in an Instagram post that included a photo of a much younger Trump with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, who committed suicide in 2019 while jailed in New York City on pedophilia-related charges. "18 years later and I still live rent-free in that collapsing brain of yours," she said in the post. "You want to revoke my citizenship? Go ahead and try," O'Donnell said. "I'm not yours to silence [and] never was." O'Donnell referred to herself as a "loud woman [and] a queer woman mother who tells the truth." She said she "got out of the country [before Trump] set it ablaze." "You are everything that is wrong with America," O'Donnell said. "I am everything you hate about what's still right with it."

JoJo Siwa, Chris Hughes Pregnancy Rumors Addressed
Jojo Siwa just added fuel to the fire as pregnancy rumors swirl around her and her new boyfriend, Chris Hughes. The allegations first started in late June, when the 22-year-old Dance Moms alum shared TikTok videos of herself surprising the 32-year-old former Love Island star with a charcuterie-style board of red snacks. Chris walks into the room to see what she prepared, and his face immediately lit up, as he picked through the assortment, which was filled with sugary and sweet snacks he loved, and some he wasn't familiar with, like Pop-Tarts. As he continued to thank her for the gift, the two embraced multiple times, but what seemed to catch viewers off guard was the way Chris affectionately rubbed her stomach while doing so. They just couldn't keep their hands off of each other... But it's also important to know that JoJo has generated a lot of attention in the past with her fans by doing "pregnancy pranks." So, many were left wondering if this was clickbait or if she was hinting at something. So, when rumors began to spread that she might be expecting her first child with Chris, JoJo addressed it the only way she knew how: playfully. Earlier this week, JoJo shared another video on TikTok, this time playing "Two Truths & a Lie." If you're not familiar with the game, it's when you present people with three statements about yourself — two truths and one lie — and someone else guesses which one they think is the lie. Jokingly, people in the comments hoped the song release was a lie: But I checked, and her latest single definitely hit Spotify on Friday, so there's one truth. I truly don't believe she's pregnant, but due to JoJo's raspy voice, some assumed number one had to be the lie. What are your thoughts? Share them with me in the comments!

Noma Dumezweni: Timing for 'Murderbot' is 'absolutely perfect'
1 of 3 | Noma Dumezweni and Alexander Skarsgard star in "Murderbot," now streaming. Photo courtesy of Apple TV+. NEW YORK, July 12 (UPI) -- Harry Potter and the Cursed Child and The Undoing actress Noma Dumezweni says the themes of hope, community and acceptance in her futuristic sci-fi series, Murderbot, are relatable and important in 2025. "I have the joy of playing Dr. Ida Mensah from the Preservation Alliance," Dumezweni, 55, told UPI in a recent Zoom interview. "You can be whatever you want. We don't align ourselves with the polities of the Corporation Rim, which are all different planets, owned by corporations, and the timing for the show is absolutely perfect. It feels like right now." The adaptation of Martha Wells' novella stars Alexander Skarsgard as the titular, partly organic, security unit cyborg, which finds a way to override its "obey" function and think for itself as it is assigned to guard a group of free-spirited scientists led by Mensah (Dumezweni) and Gurathin (David Dastmalchian). Dune and Dexter: Resurrection actor Dastmalchian, 49, described his character as an "augmented human." "Though he is a human, he has a portal so he can connect to data through computer systems both through bluetooth technology and through cables," Dastmalchian explained. "He is an analyzer, a data analytic specialist. He's able to process large streams of data and store data and run it through his computation, so he's on the lookout for any anomalies, always on the lookout for making sure everything stays straight in alignment," the actor added. "He's very, what we would call, 'Type A.'" And that occasionally puts him at odds with the hippie scientist community he finds himself a part of. "It's wild," Dastmalchian said. "I'm right in the middle of this free-loving, socialistic [group]. We've got throuples over here. Oh, my God!" Dumezweni called Gurathin a "wonderful bridge between Murderbot and the Preservation." "They know what that world is, but they understand what the possibility of this world is, so therefore Gurathin's cynicism towards Murderbot is called for, but, for Mensah, [she is like]: 'No, we're all good. Let's try and find out what else we have in common." "He has a healthy dose of skepticism," Dastmalchian chimed in. The actor said the scripts by Paul and Chris Weitz expertly blend entertaining storytelling with important social issues. "It's the gift of great writing and being around an ensemble of great artists," Dastmalchian said. "You play it straight. We're never looking for the laugh. You're never looking for the sci-fi moment, the drama moment. You're playing the intention of the characters, their relationships to one another in the given circumstances and all the amazing, extreme mise-en-scene that comes with building a world like this is just all the fun." Dumezweni also credited Wells with creating such a dynamic, colorful world in the first place. "These stories are so clearly what we are creating and what Paul and Chris have created for us to be part of and that's the joy," she said. "From the well of Wells!" Dastmalchian added. Jon Cho, Jack McBrayer, Clark Gregg, Sabrina Wu, DeWanda Wise, Akshay Khanna, Tattiawna Jones and Tamara Podemski co-star. Season 1 is now streaming on Apple TV+. The show has already been renewed for Season 2.
