Anne Heche Taken Off Life Support - More than a week after the fiery crash that had her under investigation for felony DUI, Anne Heche has now died. The 53-year-old was taken off life support yesterday after a traumatic brain injury had doctors declare her brain dead Friday. She had been kept on life support for a few days to allow for organ donation. While her life was marked by her career achievements – such as an Emmy – and relationships (including her three-year romance with Ellen DeGeneres), two young men knew her as their mother – and the eldest, Homer, spoke out over the weekend. “My brother Atlas and I lost our Mom," his statement says in part. "After six days of almost unbelievable emotional swings, I am left with a deep, wordless sadness. Hopefully my mom is free from pain and beginning to explore what I like to imagine as her eternal freedom… "Rest In Peace Mom, I love you." With her death, police have also closed the investigation into the accident. Heche won a Daytime Emmy Award in 1991 for her roles as identical twin sisters in the NBC soap, “Another World." Her list of film credits also includes "Donnie Brasco," "Wag The Dog,” "I Know What You Did Last Summer” and "Six Days Seven Nights." She shared 20-year-old son Homer with cameraman Coley Lafoon and 13-year-old Atlas with actor James Tupper, from whom she had separated in 2018. Taking to Instagram over the weekend, Tupper offered a lovely photo and the caption, “Love you forever.”

In Friday’s hearing, deputy Douglas Johnson said another deputy told him to take the pictures, but that deputy says neither he nor anyone else at the department asked for the pictures. A fireman’s wife says she saw fire captain Tony Imbrenda showing photos of Kobe’s body to a group of people on his phone at the Golden Mike Awards. The trial resumes this morning and could last for another two weeks.

Will and Jada Spotted Together For the First Time Since Oscar Slap: We'd seen and heard from both of them separately, but it had been a minute since we'd seen them together - five months, actually, since the infamous Oscars slap, and both Will and Jada had addressed the incident via podcasts and an apology video from Will to Chris Rock.

Beyonce Teases Renaissance Visuals - Beyonce fans may have felt a little short-changed. Queen Bey promised listeners a chance to "be limitless in their expansive listening journey", but when her "Renaissance" album dropped a few weeks back, it was accompanied with just a few still photographs. Nice, but not what they expected from their Queen. That has been rectified in a big way. Fans of the legend are flipping out over new visuals that dropped Friday that could be a video for the song "I'm That Girl", or could a long-form video that accompanies the album; what it is and what else is coming is very much open to interpretation. Titled "I'M THAT GIRL (Official Teaser)", the video contains the entire "I'm That Girl" track, with a variety of visuals and looks for Beyonce - and then, the images cut out entirely for the second half of the teaser, leaving a black background and white letters that read "act i - Renaissance" and "1. I'M THAT GIRL". The new visual comes after she released the “Queens Remix” of “Break My Soul,” which features Madonna and her song “Vogue.” Beyonce fans can breathe easier now, as it seems there's a lot more coming from the Queen.

Warner Bros. Weighing Options Over "The Flash" Amid Ezra Miller's Legal Troubles - Ezra Miller's growing list of legal troubles continues to be problematic for Warner Bros., the studio readying the 2023 release of "The Flash". As we told you, with the addition of each legal entanglement for the star, the future of the DCU movie gets more and more cloudy. Sources report that the studio is readying for one of three potential situations: The first, Miller, who has been accompanied by their mother in recent weeks, seeks help, does interviews explaining everything, and the movie is released as planned. Or, the studio releases the movie regardless of what Miller cops to, but limits their media exposure as far as promoting the film - and recasts the role of "The Flash" for any projects down the line. A third possibility is that the situation continues to worsen, and the studio scraps the whole project, starting from scratch - that's the nuclear option, as the movie has already cost Warner Bros. $200M to make. Still, it can happen: new studio CEO David Zaslav has already killed one movie this month, deciding to shelve the $90M HBO Max movie "Batgirl" in a move away from streaming services. Despite the arrests and headlines about Miller’s alleged behavior, Zaslav has said that the studio is committed to theatrical releases for a number of DC films - including The Flash.

"I had an intervention on myself in my trailer — all my producers were in there,” she said. “It was interesting to say that out loud. And to have everyone be like, ‘Yes, we want to help!’ I’m a working woman, and so independent, and I really take pride in being able to do everything. Well, this time, I literally couldn’t.” Cuoco and Cook dated for a year before marrying in 2010. In Sept. 2021, the couple announced on social media they were splitting - and Cuoco filed the papers the same day.
