A year after Paula Abdul sued American Idol producer Nigel Lythgoe, the parties came to an agreement and settled the suit.

On December 30, 2023, we reported that Paula – who left American Idol back in 2009 – had filed suit against Nigel, claiming that he'd sexually assaulted her.

Paula's claims pertained not only to American Idol, but also So You Think You Can Dance?, where she was a judge until 2017, and we explained:

"Paula’s lawsuit claims Nigel assaulted her on several occasions while serving as a judge on both shows. She also says he 'verbally insulted and belittled' throughout their professional relationship.

"During one [alleged] encounter, the singer says that Lythgoe assaulted her in an elevator room while they were traveling to film auditions during an early season of American Idol. Paula says he pushed her against a wall before inappropriately touching her."

Paula maintained that she initially didn't act on the allegations for...

He looked back at the sold-out dance hall, with all its history, and let himself get caught in the moment.

Former SNL star Rob Schneider, one of the most controversial comedians in modern times, has just taken another step towards the road to cancelation. The actor has gone on X, formerly known as Twitter, to express his opinion with a very controversial repost: While he wasn't literal about it, he reposted a 2021 video where NBA legend Dikembe Mutombo promoted vaccinations. Considering his known distaste for child vaccinations, Schneider was incendiary when reposting Mutombo's original pro-vaccination post in the aftermath of his passing. Mutombo died yesterday due to complications with brain cancer.

The star of critically panned comedies like Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo and Grown Ups, and one of Adam Sandler's best friends, posted the following: "Rest in Peace Im sure this is just (another) coincidence. But I took a pass on the Jab and Im gonna not let anyone I know (and who will Listen) get it either!"

Mutombo lost his battle with brain cancer on Monday at age 58.

Elle King Discusses Combative Relationship With Famous Dad

Rob Schneider is hilarious in most of the roles he takes on. He has amassed fans through his various characters and people were shocked to learn that Elle King was his daughter.

Not only was she intoxicated but she was cursing like a sailor which added insult to injury.

Elle King is opening up about her strained relationship with her father, Rob Schneider.

Country stars Jelly Roll and Ashley McBryde will team up as hosts for ABC’s annual “CMA Fest” special, set to be taped at the festival this week and then air on the network June 25. It’s the first time either singer has hosted a prime-time special.

The 16-day window between the end of CMA Fest and the ABC special bearing its name will seem like a short one to those who remember the long period of years when the special was held back for airing in the dog days of August or September. But the June 25 date represents a big jump even on last year’s accelerated schedule, when “CMA Fest” aired on July 19. The bumping up of the air date suggests a belief that country’s current hot streak merits a more immediate commemoration of the genre’s biggest annual live event, rather than putting it on ice...

A few months ago, Dolly Parton broke her silence on Elle King’s drunken performance at the Grand Ole Opry. King, 34, had constantly faced backlash from country fans and beyond for saying she was “f—ing hammered” during her birthday tribute to Parton at the Grand Ole Opry in January.

King admitted her performance was “f—ing bad” while trying to perform one of Parton’s classics, ‘Marry Me.’ She also made a joke about people expecting her to know the lyrics to the song. “I can barely play another person’s song, let me see if I can play one of mine,” King said.

Fans also fished out a separate video where King was heard telling the crowd that they were not getting their money back.

Elle King has now shared the backstory behind her infamous drunken performance for Dolly Parton’s birthday tribute at the Grand Ole Opry.

While appearing on the latest episode of Chelsea Handler’s Dear Chelsea podcast, the singer opened up about her personal struggles behind the scenes. She disclosed that it was her “first time” discussing the incident publicly because she had to “just chill” after receiving so much backlash on social media.

She pointed out that she “did a big no-no” because she not only cussed onstage while “hammered” at the storied venue, but it was also the country icon’s big birthday tribute.

“I had been going through something very heavy and traumatic in my life at the time, and that day was a really big day dealing with what I was going through — and that I’m still going through — and I suffer from like, severe Ptsd,...

After several months of silence, Elle King has addressed her controversial Dolly Parton tribute performance at the Grand Ole Opry in January.

During the performance, which took place on Dolly Parton’s 78th birthday and featured a myriad of tributes, Elle King arrived drunk and slurred her way through a rendition of Parton’s “Marry Me.” “I don’t know the lyrics to these things in this fucking town/ Don’t tell Dolly ‘cus it’s her birthday” she told the audience before confessing, “I’m not even gonna fucking lie… y’all bought tickets for this shit, you ain’t getting your money back. And I’m gonna tell you one thing more: Hi, my name is Elle King, I’m fucking hammered.”

Now, King has discussed the incident for the first time on Chelsea Handler’s Dear Chelsea podcast. King initially expressed that she wasn’t supposed to...

Elle King offered the most detailed account of her disastrous performance at the Grand Ole Opry’s Dolly Parton tribute show earlier this year — and the incredible kindness Parton showed her afterward — on Chelsea Handler’s Dear Chelsea podcast.

As King herself acknowledged, she committed a “big no-no” at the January concert: She “cussed on stage, hammered” at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium and appeared to forget the lyrics to Parton’s song “Marry Me.” While King released a short statement about the matter on Instagram back in March, she noted...

Chris Stapleton took the stage during his recent appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show for a special performance of “Loving You on My Mind.” The song, which appears on the musician’s latest studio album, Higher, was elevated to the next level as Stapleton was joined by Hudson herself and the country duo the War and Treaty.

Stapleton kicked off the song with the War and Treaty, singing alongside his band. About halfway through, following one of the singer’s soulful guitar solos, Hudson emerged from side stage to bring the performance home.
