Newark, New Jersey, May 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —
Jasmine Patrice White
To empower creatives with a fusion of firsthand industry expertise and an innate love for writing, Jasmine Patrice White will soon launch The Script Doctor, an inspirational environment where ideas are turned into stories that stick. Created by a woman who has done everything from intern, ghostwriter, executive assistant, all the way to big-screen success, The Script Doctor is anything but average. Its ultimate goal? To help creatives write like their name is already in the credits, with impact and confidence.
As the name suggests, The Script Doctor centers on creating and elevating scripts. Its services include ghostwriting, in-depth script reviews, and comprehensive training that turns passion into impactful craftsmanship. Through tailored courses and hands-on guidance, Jasmine will provide actionable notes that define the blueprint to success while explaining the science behind powerful scripts, from effective formatting to non-negotiables and no-gos. 'School is optional, but a fire script is not,' she says. 'And my mission is to teach you how to play the game.'
Beyond transforming creative genius into industry-ready scripts, The Script Doctor is also dedicated to paving the way for financial freedom. Jasmine's financial education will range from writing grants to monetizing even beginners' content, side-by-side helping clients navigate the landscape's complexity. Why? For her, it's simple: To rewrite the 'starving artist' myth by creating a system that positions artistry as a viable path to success.
This philosophy of shattering the status quo is the very heart of The Script Doctor, informing Jasmine's dedication to cultural literacy. Therefore, the upcoming launch carries a profound mission: helping minorities and underrepresented communities break through the noise with creativity, connection, and clarity. To make resources more accessible, Jasmine also provides what she calls 'your industry bestie in your inbox.' Also known as Ink & Alchemy, it's a newsletter providing weekly insights and a daily dose of inspiration.
The Script Doctor
'The common misconception is that the world doesn't value diversity anymore,' she shares. 'I've worked with hundreds of Black, Latino, and Queer clients, and the first question almost all of them ask is, 'What if no one wants to invest in me?' They're scared to try, and it's my job to turn that fear into motivation.'
Set to launch in early June 2025, The Script Doctor is only the next step of Jasmine's journey, building upon the success of The Creative Guild, a dynamic and inclusive nonprofit empowering emerging creatives to thrive, innovate, and make a meaningful impact. Looking ahead, she envisions The Script Doctor turning into a place where community, creativity, and mental wellness converge, welcoming all with open arms. Additionally, she hopes to strengthen the position of Newark, New Jersey, as America's next film hub, where opportunities and support are endless.
'Your content should and can resonate. The key is only finding the right audience, refining your skills, and attracting potential investors. I know that it's as complicated as it sounds, and that's why The Script Doctor was born,' Jasmine Patrice White reflects. 'It's for those who have the nerve to believe that their messy notes deserve better. And as long as you're dedicated and willing to learn, I'll take your script to the red carpet.'

In Tracee Ellis Ross' new hair care ad, a 'Girlfriends' reunion

Tracee Ellis Ross is getting the gang back together. In a new commercial for the actress' hair care brand PATTERN, Ross, 52, gathers her girlfriends (literally). Joined by actresses Golden Brooks, Jill Marie Jones, and Persia White, Ross' former co-stars from the hit sitcom "Girlfriends," which aired on UPN from 2000-06 and the CW from 2006-08, the beauty mogul pulls off a reunion for the ages. Getting all four leads in the same room (on video), Ross' ad draws on the dysfunctional hilarity that made "Girlfriends" a staple of the early aughts. Why Tracee Ellis Ross is bringing the mixed-race experience to TV in 'Black-ish' spinoff 'Mixed-ish' Fans of the show flooded the internet with excitement (and dreams of a larger reunion) after the ad dropped. "First Brandy and Monica and now a Girlfriends reunion?!! Blessed are we," one user wrote in the comment section of Ross' Instagram post sharing the ad. Singers Monica and Brandy, who famously collaborated on the hit song "That Boy is Mine" in 1998, recently announced a joint tour, no doubt drawing on a similar nostalgia. "We want a GIRLFRIENDS movie pleaseee," another commenter chimed in. 'Girlfriends' at 20: Stars including Tracee Ellis Ross remember the series "I love this so much. HBO or MAX or whatever you call yourself now ... offer them a deal already!!!," another user chimed in, poking fun at the streamer's branding flip-flop. The "Girlfriends" fandom is replete with big names as well, with "Grey's Anatomy" creator Shonda Rhimes chiming in in the comments, writing "Love this!!!" and radio host Bevy Smith writing "Genius like you … and the products are amazing!!!!!!" Ross, the daughter of music icon Diana Ross, grew her fame and acting career in the near-decade she spent playing Joan on "Girlfriends." Now a staple in the sitcom scene and a bona fide Hollywood star, she's expanded into the beauty market with PATTERN, which sells curl creams, gels and hot irons for hair of all textures. "In this spot, we wanted to celebrate the styling rituals with our cast of various textures as well as reunite my 'Girlfriends' to show the joy that lives in our shared hair moments," the actress wrote in a release announcing the ad. "From curls, coils and tight textures to locs, fades, straight styles and more, PATTERN has got you covered." Whether the ad will inspire a more concrete "Girlfriends" reunion remains to be seen, though Hollywood has certainly shown a penchant for revivals in recent years, bringing back everything from "Full House" to "Sex and the City." In the meantime, Ross' ad ensured the fandom is at least well-fed.

Matty Healy's Taylor Swift Inspired Pin At Glastonbury

As you probably know, in May 2023, Taylor Swift embarked on a seriously controversial relationship with British singer Matty Healy, with the two going public with their romance less than one month after Taylor split from her boyfriend of over six years, Joe Alwyn. The pairing was divisive due to Matty's long history of problematic behavior, which included him seemingly doing a Nazi salute on stage, and candidly saying that he masturbates to Black women being 'brutalized' just months earlier. Taylor remained defiant amid the backlash, and even made a pointed speech that implied she was completely unfazed by the online discourse during one of her Eras Tour shows. However, by early June, it had been reported that Taylor and Matty had ended their relationship — seemingly as suddenly as it had started. In April 2024, Taylor appeared to shed some light on her and Matty's whirlwind romance on her 31-track album, The Tortured Poets Department. While it's important to mention that lyrical interpretation is entirely subjective and Taylor very rarely confirms who her songs are about, she has always encouraged her fans to connect clues and Easter eggs about the subjects of her some of the clues are pretty apparent on TTPD, which enabled listeners to piece together a cohesive breakdown of what had seemingly happened between Matty and Taylor — from the moment that she apparently left Joe for him, to her devastation and heartbreak at him ultimately ghosting her. Taylor's music also appeared to confirm the long-running speculation that she and Matty had been privately involved in an on-again, off-again stiuationship of sorts for almost a decade, with the two first being romantically linked in November 2014 before Matty shut down the rumors by saying that it would be 'emasculating' to date her. On Tortured Poets, Taylor makes reference to 'waltzing back into rekindled flames' and being 'haunted' by somebody and a relationship that they 'never quite buried' in songs that are widely believed to be about Matty. The theme is perhaps at its most apparent in the song 'Peter,' which compares the subject of the song to the character Peter Pan. In 'Peter,' Taylor sings about falling for somebody but the timing not being right, and then spending years waiting for him to be ready to date her. 'You said you were gonna grow up, then you were gonna come find me,' she repeats in the chorus, later saying that the other person was 25 years old when they first met — which is how old Matty was in 2014.'I won't confess that I waited, but I let the lamp burn / As the men masqueraded, I hoped you'd return / With your feet on the ground, tell me all that you'd learned / Cause love's never lost when perspective is earned,' she sings. 'And you said you'd come and get me, but you were 25 / And the shelf life of those fantasies has expired / Lost to the Lost Boys chapter of your life.' And Matty appeared to allude to this song during his band, the 1975's, headline spot at Glastonbury festival on Friday night, with the star wearing a pretty pointed pin of Disney's Peter Pan for the duration of the performance. This wasn't Matty's only apparent reference to The Tortured Poets Department either, with Swifties also being left stunned when he appeared to make a thinly-veiled dig at Taylor partway through the show. For context, TTPD's title track is also thought to be about Matty, and lovingly pokes fun at his creative process during the peak of his and Taylor's relationship. 'What this moment is making me realize is that I probably am the best," Matty told the Glastonbury crowd. "I'm probably the best songwriter of my generation. The best, what do we say… A poet, ladies and gentlemen, is what I am.' Matty has never explicitly commented on Taylor's songs about him, and when paparazzi approached him to ask how he felt about his ex's 'diss track' shortly after the album's release, Matty breezily replied: 'My diss track? Oh! I haven't really listened to that much of it, but I'm sure it's pretty good.' He later dismissed Taylor as a 'casual romantic liaison' during an appearance on the Doomscroll podcast, and appeared to throw shade when he maintained that he wouldn't be writing any songs about her because it wouldn't be 'interesting.'Matty started dating model Gabbriette Bechtel in September 2023, and the two confirmed that they are engaged in July 2024. Meanwhile, Taylor started dating NFL star Travis Kelce in July 2023, one month after her split from Matty. As always, let me know what you make of it all in the comments below!

Live updates: Jury set to begin deliberations in the Sean ‘Diddy' Combs trial

Update: Date: 5 min ago Title: Catch up on the charges and evidence presented to the jury in the Sean "Diddy" Combs trial Content: It's been more than six weeks since testimony began in the federal criminal trial of Sean 'Diddy' Combs. As the case heads to the jury today, CNN's Laura Coates recaps the five counts faced by the music mogul — and the key evidence jurors will consider: CNN's Laura Coates goes over the five counts hip-hop mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs is charged with, the key evidence and testimony presented to jurors, and how the defense disputes the allegations. #cnn #diddy #seancombstrial Update: Date: 5 min ago Title: How media coverage of major trials has evolved in the post-OJ Simpson era Content: Salacious details, discussion of domestic violence and a Black male celebrity who for decades had a strong base of supporters: While the alleged crimes are not the same, some of the cultural issues involved could describe both the trial of Sean 'Diddy' Combs in 2025 and that of OJ Simpson in 1995. Simpson's case sparked an era of 'trialtainment,' with an abundance of viewers and readers following an exhaustive round-the-clock news cycle, absorbing every detail of the bombshell murder case. Thirty years later, as the world awaits a verdict in Combs' federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial, interest in celebrity court cases remains high, but public discourse around race and intimate partner violence has changed. 'I think a lot of women have evolved in terms of taking a stance that we can speak up. We are now just being comfortable with speaking up, and this is as a result of the #MeToo movement,' legal analyst and entertainment law expert Lisa Bonner, who is not connected to either case, told CNN. Simpson, who died in April 2024 at the age of 76 following a battle with cancer, was accused of fatally stabbing his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman. The star football player and actor was acquitted in 1995. Combs is facing allegations of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution. The mogul and music artist has pleaded not guilty. Read more here about how the coverage of the two cases reflects an evolution in 'trialtainment.'
