'The Simpsons' Executive Producer Confirms 'Marge Simpson Is Not Dead'

Rana Atef In recent days, social media blasted after fans speculated the death of "The Simpsons" iconic character, Marge Simpson, after a scene in the Season 36 finale. It seemed that fans misunderstood the scene leading them to believe her death. Fans started to share memes, tribute posts, and digital mourning on social media, sparking an outpouring of nostalgia and sadness. The episode in question, titled 'Estranger Things', aired on May 18, but it wasn't until this week that the emotional moment gained widespread attention. The story is set in a speculative future, where Bart and Lisa have grown distant as adults. Lisa is now the commissioner of the NBA, and Bart runs an unlicensed retirement home ,which Homer resides in, funded by Lisa. Through the episode, a funeral scene reveals a tombstone engraved with: 'Beloved wife, mother and pork-chop seasoner.' Fans were led to believe Marge had died. The storyline takes a touching turn when Lisa finds an old video message from her mother, urging her children to stay close. This sparks a reunion between Bart and Lisa, who renew their sibling bond as Marge looks down from heaven in a comedic twist, she is seen coupled with Ringo Starr of The Beatles, joking about a heavenly buffet's 'shrimp tower.' But despite the wave of reactions online, fans can rest easy: Marge is not actually dead. Executive producer Matt Selman addressed the viral misunderstanding in an interview with Variety, saying that in the world of The Simpsons, 'there is no canon.' 'The Simpsons doesn't even have canon!' Selman clarified. 'Since 'The Simpsons' future episodes are all speculative fantasies, they're all different every time. Marge will probably never be dead ever again. The only place Marge is dead is in one future episode that aired six weeks ago.' Selman also criticized the media for sensationalizing the storyline for clicks, noting that many headlines deliberately misled readers. 'Every single media outlet that ran this story knew that in no way was Marge dead,' he said. 'But they ran the headline anyway. I guess this speaks to the fact that people care about Marge.' Marge Simpson isn't going anywhere.

Sean Diddy thanks Judge Arun Subramanian as his defense team smacked down over surprising Iran defense

The judge overseeing Sean 'Diddy' Combs' trial smacked down his defense team for allegedly trying to take advantage of the growing crisis with Iran in their impending closing argument. Sean 'Diddy' Combs' main lawyer Marc Agnifilo said, 'Nothing to worry about, judge,' in response to the potential defense's attempt to tie rapper's trial to Iran or any other contemporary political issues.(REUTERS) In an attempt to tie the rising tensions between the US and Iran to the disgraced rapper's case, his legal team allegedly intended to bring up the topic in court as his blockbuster sex trafficking trial draws to a close, as per TMZ on Monday. According to sources who spoke to the publication, Diddy's defense team 'may invoke the recent conflict' in their final argument, notably targeting the Homeland Security Investigators who conducted a raid on his house in the Holmby Hills district of Los Angeles in March. The insider told TMZ that they intended to claim that the agents 'instigated' their customer's usage of baby oil and lubricant in the bedroom even though they ought to have been more focused on the war with Iran. Prosecutor objects to defense's strange plan as Diddy's lawyers react Prosecutor Maurene Comey responded to reports of the defense's strange plan by telling U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian that 'I would object' if they brought up politics, Daily Mail reported. Combs' main lawyer Marc Agnifilo said, 'Nothing to worry about, judge,' in response to the potential defense's attempt to tie rapper's trial to Iran or any other contemporary political issues. The rapper's defense only lasted 23 minutes on Tuesday after he formally said he would not be appearing at the Daniel Patrick Moynihan Federal Courthouse in New York City. Iran fired at least ten missiles against US military installations in Qatar on Monday, the 28th day of Combs' trial, following Donald Trump's airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities on Saturday.

Combs stated, 'I'm doing great,' in an open and assured voice. 'I wanted to tell you thank you, you're doing an excellent job.' Combs said he had discussed testifying 'thoroughly' with his attorneys and rejected using narcotics in the previous 48 hours.
