As a young boy with his life ahead of him, Dylan Sprouse was body shamed, not by strangers. This unfortunate incident happened where he could have been protected. Kim Rhodes, his on-screen mom, says she fought for him at the end of the day.
Kim Rhodes Talks How Vulnerability In Vulnerable Podcast — She Stood Up For Dylan Sprouse
While speaking into her mic on Vulnerable podcast, Kim Rhodes reflected on her journey as a mom to twins. The actress who starred in The Suite Life of Zack & Cody said Dylan Sprouse was body-shamed on set.
According to her story on Page Six, the difference between Dylan and his twin brother was highlighted.
She quipped:
“Dylan and Cole had different body types. And in front of everyone, Dylan was body-shamed.”
Now 54, she still reflects on the painful words from the exec. Rhodes explained that the exec had screamed at craft services to remove all junk food after noticing doughnuts around. He then glanced at Dylan, adding that he must look like Cole, the thinner twin.
But being a mom in front of the camera was not only what she was about. Kim Rhodes shared in the Vulnerable Podcast that she defended Dylan.
In her words:
“I was like, ‘You do not have the right to say that to a child. You do not have the right to be writing for children if that is your attitude. Never again do you speak like that. Never.”
Dylan Returned The Favor After Rhodes’s Body Shame Fight
Despite being young, Dylan never forgot Mama Bear. According to Rhodes, the young man returned the favour when he was asked to poke fun at her. He had been instructed to leverage her appearance during her real-life pregnancy and pull a fat joke.
Dylan Sprouse Was Once Body Shamed, But Look At Him Now
The 31-year-old once fat kid now has a beautiful life, including a banging body and a model wife, Barbara Palvin. On top of that, he is a New York University graduate and works in his own meadery.
Kim Rhodes reveals she defended Dylan Sprouse after a writer body shamed him for not matching the size of his brother during filming:

After months of accusations flying around, Jonathan Majors finally begins trial. It all began with the lawyers for the accused and the plaintiff establishing content that would be declared public. During this time, the MCU star glanced at the potential jurors for the case. However, no one knows which candidates will make it— yet.
Jonathan Majors Domestic Violence Charges
Jonathan Majors’ world came crashing in March following domestic violence crimes levied on him. The Loki actor was accused of assault and harassment by a former girlfriend.
Though the actor has since maintained his innocence, he has not been all that lucky. In Majors’ case, he is viewed as guilty until proven innocent. This is because the actor has been dropped from ads, movies, and even his managers. No one truly wants to associate with him until the mist is cleared.
As Jonathan Majors’ trial set sail, fans should be aware that he faces a jail term of about a year if proven guilty.
Jonathan Majors Domestic Violence Trial With New York Jurors
Twenty-four hours after Jonathan Majors’ first glance at the jurors fit for trial, he will find out the selected few. On Wednesday, as the attorneys went head to head, they all witnessed a 40-man jury. However, Deadline reports that only six will make it to the jury seats. Meanwhile, there will be about one alternate who will look into the proofs provided.
Majors was spotted exiting a Manhattan court on Wednesday but refused to entertain any questions. This is precisely how the jurors are expected to behave as well. Back in the court, it was the presiding Judge, Judge Michael Gaffey, who addressed the jury, saying:
“You can’t Google, FaceTime, Twitter — which I guess is now called X,” he quipped. “You can’t do any Internet searches, social media searches, absolutely anything you can think of that I haven’t mentioned … you cannot do.”
So far, Judge Gaffey has ordered that during jury selection, no lawyer is to address anyone as a victim. Neither the accuser nor the plaintiff will have this tag.
Speaking of the victim, Grace Jabbari, Majors’ accuser who claimed the title, will likely testify at the trial. However, it is not clear if the actor will be present to testify.
The actor Jonathan Majors appeared in court in New York on Wednesday for the expected start of jury selection in a trial in which he is accused of injuring his then-girlfriend during an argument last spring.https://t.co/tDxqRGGTJH

A faithful wife (Taraji P. Henson), tired of standing by her devious husband (Lyriq Bent), becomes enraged when it becomes clear that he has betrayed her. She goes out of her way to make life miserable for him.
Diary Of A Mad Black Woman
Tyler sure knows how to ace a stage play, and the same goes for his stage production films. In this piece, Tyler plays the role of Daddy Charles and the unbeatable Madea.
This film revolves around a male-female relationship without negative clichés. It addresses certain issues in a comic manner, with women as the core subject matter and the many challenges they face regardless of race. It portrays a toxic relationship between a black middle-class couple, Helen and Charles McCarter.
Why Did I Get Married
“You didn’t get it from Keisha, you got it from Walter. No, I slept with him. I got my shot. I was just waiting for you to say something.”
The iconic line from Angela (Tasha Smith) that drives her husband Marcus (Michael Jai White) insane.
Tyler sets a new classic standard with this one, portraying the challenging elements faced by people in a relationship. It pulls a result on screen that shows the depth of excellence in the audience.
Good Deeds
There’s no Tyler play that comes to mind without him consciously making an effort to outdo the others.
In this film, wealthy businessman Wesley Deeds (Tyler Perry) has done what’s expected of him and has settled into a predictable routine.
Wesley’s life takes a full circle when he meets Lindsey (Thandie Newton), a poverty-stricken single mother who was evicted from her apartment. In the process of helping Lindsey get back on her feet, the duo sparks a romantic relationship, with Wesley’s fiancée (Gabrielle Union) still in the picture.

A Jazzman’s Blues
A different type of blues that has never been served by Tyler comes to the screen with love, hope, music, and family drama. It revolves around a forbidden love tale.

There are crime films, and then there are certain type of crime films that will have you hooked at first glance, before the credits have rolled in. These are the movies that make you question the thoughts of the director and screenwriters.
Here are five black crime films that definitely top the list of crime films with a profound connection to what a crime film should be about. Underrated yet qualified at every glance.
Training Day
The most iconic KING KONG monologue in the history of cinema have been said here, the scene had Alonzo Harris (Denzel Washington) surrounded by a gang of armed men after he was defeated by Jake Hoyt (Ethan Hawke).
“Awwww, you motherf—kers. Okay. Alright. I’m putting cases on all you b—ches! Huh. You think you can do this s—t. Jake! You think you can do this to me?! You motherf—kers will be playing basketball in Pelican Bay when I get finished with you! SHU program, nigga. 23-hour lockdown! I’m the man up in this piece! You’ll never see the light of… who the f—k do you think you’re f—king with? I’m the police, I run sh-t around here. You just live here! Yeah, that’s right, you better walk away! Go on and walk away, ’cause I’m gonna burn this motherf—ker down. King Kong ain’t got sh-t on me! That’s right, that’s right. S—t, I don’t, f—k. I’m winning anyway, I’m winning… I’m winning any motherf—king way. I can’t lose. Yeah, you can shoot me, but you can’t kill me.”

This film is a gritty urban drama with lots of empathetic emotions.
Dwayne (LL Cool J) a key player behind 80% of the city’s criminal activity.
Harlem Nights
Harlem definitely had the night and wild parties back in the 80s. The place to be in Harlem was club Sugar Ray.
Sugar Ray (Eddie Murphy) must now contend with gangsters, corrupt law enforcement officials, and competitors to keep his business afloat.
Hoodlum
In a city ruled by organized crime, America’s most dangerous man begins a war. A war about power, money, and wills between legends.

While the world thought otherwise, Kylie Jenner and Jordyn Woods continued their friendship low-key. Recall that the women were reported to have parted when Woods was accused of cheating with Tristan Thompson. At the time, Thompson was in a full-fledged romance with Khloe Kardashian.
Tristan Thompson Scandal That Threatened Kylie Jenner and Jordyn Woods’ Friendship
In 2019, the Kardashian-Jenner family hosted a house party with Woods and Thompson on the guest list. These two, considered family at the time, reportedly shared a kiss. Although it did not escalate, it caused a crack in Khloe’s romance. She broke up with the NBA star. On the other hand, Kylie ended things with her BFF, Woods.
Kylie Jenner Shares The Untold Truth About Her Relationship With Jordyn Woods
Kylie Jenner sat down for a heart-to-heart talk with Jennifer Lawrence, about her friendship with Jordyn Woods. During the Interview-published chat, the KUWTK star was brutally honest. She addressed her bond with Woods, whom she had met during middle school.
“We always stayed in touch throughout the years and we would meet up at my house and catch up and just talk through everything. We never fully cut each other off, and one day, naturally, we were like, we want to get sushi and we don’t want to hide anymore.”
Speaking of going public, the friends shocked the world when they were spotted together. Their July sushi date at a Los Angeles restaurant was the first of its kind since 2019.
At the time, fans believed that they had decided to bury the hatchet. But this was only proof that they were done pretending.
It did not matter what the world thought, Kylie admitted that the process was a learning curve. The beauty mogul agreed that the sensed tension impacted their friendship positively. Rather than run to Jordyn Woods in times of need, Kylie Jenner developed her self-confidence and independence.
The cosmetic brand owner drummed in the same sentiments, cornering her relationship with Woods. A week before meeting with Lawrence, Kylie chatted with Thompson on The Kardashians. The duo reflected on the Tristan Thompson scandal that upset the family.
The NBA star accepted his responsibility while apologizing to Kylie. He explained that he had caused her to lose a sister. However, Kylie maintained that the plays catch up with Jordyn Woods.
Kylie Jenner says she never fully cut off Jordyn Woods (via @InterviewMag):
