Keshia Knight Pulliam mourns the death of her ‘big brother' Malcolm-Jamal Warner
Knight Pulliam, who as a child star played Rudy Huxtable on 'The Cosby Show,' posted a tribute to Warner on social media over the weekend. The actor, who played her older brother Theo Huxtable on the show, died July 20 in a drowning accident in Costa Rica. He was 54.
On Sunday, Knight Pulliam posted a video of Warner playing guitar at a concert.
'A week ago I lost my big brother but I gained an angel… I love you… I miss you… We got our girls,' she wrote in the caption.
Just prior to his death, Warner released the Season 2 premiere of his 'Not All Hood' podcast which featured him, his co-host Candace O. Kelley and Knight Pulliam.
On the podcast, the former costars got emotional talking about the end of 'The Cosby Show' in 1992.
'We were all ready to just kind of move on. So I was cool with finishing the last episode and everyone saying bye,' Warner said. 'I was so cool, had no emotions, and then I saw Keshia started crying, and then I started crying.'
'He's stuck with me for life,' she said at the time.

People Are Calling Out The "Beloved" 2000s Trends That Are Actually Weird, Confusing, Or Straight-Up Toxic, And It's 100,000% True
We recently asked the BuzzFeed Community to tell us the 2000s trends that were actually weird, confusing, or simply toxic, and they shared the once-loved fads that are now, Here are the eye-opening results: 1."Those stretchy popcorn shirts 😖. I had one as a kid, and it was both ugly and uncomfortable, so I never wore it." —nathanvh 2."How wild the paparazzi and celebrity news media were. They were vicious, cruel, and did not care at all about how any of them felt. Some radio stations would have countdown clocks for minors turning legal. Asking teenagers their thoughts about sex or whether they were pregnant. Calling women fat for being a size 6." —monikap6 3."Low-rise jeans. Gen Z is already trying to bring them back, but they don't realize that it's not just a matter of preference. For several years in the 2000s, you couldn't buy ANY kind of jeans besides low rise; that's practically all they sold." "And if they were unflattering on your body type? Oh, boy, did people have cruel things to say about you." —padawanryan 4."The pressure to be thin. I still struggle to this day with my body image because of what was slammed down my throat in my formative years. Thinking I had no value and no one would ever love me romantically if I didn't have a flat stomach was a lot." —j458091739 5."One thing I don't miss is the cellphone salespeople. I remember playing 'Dodge the Cellphone Salesperson' when going to any shopping center. Any time I wanted to go to the food court or from any part of the shopping center to the other, I would get yelled at by the people at the cellphone kiosk. They would insult my intelligence by saying their phone was free." "It was hard to just go to the food court without the annoying salespeople shouting at me. This was when people were just starting to have their own cellphones." —troper 6."Fat-shaming. More specifically, shaming any woman who had the slightest bit of a tummy, whose ribs you couldn't see, etc. All of us millennial women have body dysmorphia from coming of age during the oughts (not that it's much better now)." —Anonymous, 38, Oregon "Body-shaming. It's always been an issue in Hollywood, but the 2000s were on a whole different level. I remember being a size 6 in high school and feeling like I needed to lose weight because *gasp* I wasn't a size 2, and I saw celebrities get shredded for being my size in the media. I've always been muscular with an hourglass figure, so even if I starved myself, I'd never have been a size 2. I'm a little curvier now as an adult (size 10), but still in shape, and I love my body. It hurts my heart when I look at photos of myself when I was younger, and I see a thin, beautiful girl who hated her body." —minibubble32237 7."I don't miss those awful-looking PT Cruisers. Looks like someone tried to drive their sedan through the 1950s but got stuck in Bozo's driveway." —colleend9 8."Freestyle rapping at high school house parties. Geez. You couldn't just kick it with the boys without someone suggesting, 'Let's freestyle.' The time I wasted trying to freestyle was stressful. Workaholics captures those moments pretty well." —Anonymous, 42, California 9."Skinny jeans on everyone, even toddlers. They only looked good on particular body types, and trying to wrestle them off a kid who needed a diaper change was a nightmare." —Anonymous, 46, New Jersey 10."I don't miss the time before being a nerd/individual, which was cool. In the early 2000s, 'fitting in' was still very much what was desirable. Irony didn't become trendy until, like, 2008. Before then, being blonde, straight, fashionable, and neurotypical was still considered ideal. I feel like these days, there's a bit more tolerance of different hobbies and styles than the more conformist days of the early '00s." —Anonymous, 35, Nebraska 11."Super skinny eyebrows. I spent way too much time trying to make them as thin and crisp as possible." —Anonymous, 40, Nevada 12."Not only was adult women's clothing all tight and low-rise, so was girls' and juniors' clothing. It was so uncomfortable to be pushed to dress in such a revealing way as a preteen and young teen. I just wanted to wear shorts and a T-shirt I could move in, but that required shopping in the boys' department, and obviously, that brought another set of problems. That and being so constrained to what was on trend." "All stores carried different versions of the same thing. All low-rise to ultra-low-rise, cropped, and tight. Booooooo!" —Anonymous, 36, Washington 13."Burberry. I saw Billie Eilish wearing it a few years ago, and it just reminded me of all the cheap knock-offs that were everywhere. —katashworth 14."My mom always talks about how much she doesn't miss smokey eyes, orange tanning, or the hair extensions whenever the 2000s are brought up. Nothing pissed her more than the hair thing, though. EVERYONE was asking her if her naturally long hair was real, which was so annoying. She was never with the trend and never will be lol." —Anonymous, USA 15."The 'Are you on your period?' joke that was used whenever someone was upset." —Anonymous, 42, California And finally... 16."Tanning beds. I did this a lot growing up in the '80s and worry a lot about cancer. It was really toxic, like, literally!" —Anonymous, 57, Arizona Note: Some responses have been edited for length and/or clarity. Whew. What are some other '00s trends that were actually awful? Tell us in the comments, or if you prefer to remain anonymous, you can use the form below. Solve the daily Crossword

SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY BTS Photo May Have Teased MCU Villains and Iconic Comic Moments — GeekTyrant
Spider-Man: Brand New Day is still deep in pre-production, but an unexpected peek behind the scenes may have just dropped some clues about what fans might be able to expect when Tom Holland returns as the wallcrawler. The reveal was a quickly deleted Instagram post that could've spoiled some of the comic book moments director Destin Daniel Cretton plans to bring to life in the MCU sequel. The image was posted by Cretton's assistant Ziyi Cao, and fans managed to grab screenshot of it before it vanished. It shows off a Spider-Man action figure with the simple caption 'Hang in there,' but on the wall behind the figure were two prominent comic book covers, and those could offer a hint about what's coming. The covers that were revealed are 1974's The Amazing Spider-Man #134 and 1991's The Amazing Spider-Man #345. One cover features Spider-Man facing off against the villain Tarantula, with a surprise appearance from The Punisher . The other shows the webhead battling the obscure rogue Boomerang, and more intriguingly, Venom shows up again too. If these covers are anything to go by, Brand New Day could be bringing in some unexpected, and wild villains. Kevin Feige, president of Marvel Studios, backed up the idea that these covers mean something. He previously said: 'He's got eight or nine comic covers up on his wall in his art department that he is bringing to life in this movie, which is super cool.' That sounds like a clear nod that these scenes are more than just inspiration, they might be actual sequences we'll see play out on screen. While plot details are still under wraps, one other tidbit has surfaced: the movie is reportedly set before the events of Avengers: Doomsday . That means whatever chaos goes down in Brand New Day could help set the stage for Marvel's next big crossover event. The cast is stacking up nicely too, with Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, and Sadie Sink joining Holland in the next chapter of Spidey's MCU saga. Spider-Man: Brand New Day hits theaters on July 31, 2026.

Katie Holmes Knows the Power of a Pop of Red Shoe
Katie Holmes's street style is hard to match. When spotted out on the streets of New York, you'll often find her with a buzzy handbag (Manu Atelier being a go-to, and any others she'll have a hand in selling out fast), covetable outerwear, a classic and statement shoe, or some playful accessory. (Beanies, for winter into spring). On the red carpet, she loves a freaky shoe and a chic dress from a favored brand like Khaite. The actor has spent the last few weeks directing Happy Hours, her latest project, a new feature film trilogy she's written and in which she also stars alongside former Dawson's Creek co-star Joshua Jackson. Photos from set have shown Holmes both in costume and in some stellar director fits. One character look in particular, where she wore a pair of blue denim overalls and brown boots, even recalled the vibe of her Dawson's Creek character Joey. Another, much more in keeping with Holmes's own personal style, saw her don a relaxed pink blazer and wide leg denim jeans. This week, Holmes was spotted arriving back to the set in a quintessentially 'summer in the city for Katie Holmes' look. The writer-actor-director wore an open, cropped pale blue shirt that sat off of one shoulder, a scoopneck white tank top, a graphic brown, cream and beige slip skirt with a breezy front slit by Isabel Marant, and a pop of red pair of velvet Mary Jane flats. It was a simple, summery look, with a dash of color to make it look considered and put together a la Holmes. Jose Perez/Bauer-Griffin Photo: Backgrid In recent times, she's been photographed in looks that keep to her effortlessly cool, downtown style; toting the iconic Chloé Paddington bag to and from set, doing the director's strut in western-coded ankle boots. Is Katie Holmes in pride of place among the best dressed directors of all time? Her Happy Hours stint will confirm.
