Natalie Cochran seemed like she had it all: a good job as a pharmacist, a loving husband, and two kids. But then she quit her job to become a government contractor and started raking in dough, or so she claimed.

Is love in the air, Richies? “The Naked Gun” reboot hits theaters on Friday, and its stars, Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson, are pounding the pavement to promote the movie.

After that, we’ll fill you in on an even more surprising pairing - Katy Perry and Canada’s former Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau. Are they really living out some "Teenage Dream" or is it all BS? Switching gears, we also have the blowback Pedro Pascal’s getting for his “handsy” behavior while promoting “The Fantastic Four: First Steps.” And speaking of blowback, just what exactly is going on in Sydney Sweeney’s “American Eagle” ad?

It’s not that hard to kill a planet. All it takes is a little drilling, some mining, a generous helping of pollution and voila! Earth over. When you take stock of what’s left, it starts to look like a crime scene: decapitated mountains, poisoned rivers, oil-soaked pelicans, maybe a sun-bleached cow skull in a dried-up lake bed. The only thing missing is yellow caution tape. On each episode of Lawless Planet, host Zach Goldbaum reveals the scams, murders and cover-ups on the frontline of the climate crisis, and the life and death choices people are making to either protect our world – or destroy it.

JoJo Siwa keeps making headlines. Last time it was because of her showmance with her “Celebrity Big Brother UK” castmate, Chris Hughes. This time it’s because of her version of the Kim Carnes classic, “Bette Davis Eyes.” As per usual, JoJo leans into the autotune big time, and she’s getting roasted for it. Then we’ve got all the drama between former flames Zach Bryan and Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia. They had a messy breakup after Zach let Brianna (and the rest of the world) know they were over on Instagram! Looks like Zach’s stirring up more sh*t over their relationship, and Chickenfry’s clapping back - with receipts. And finally, we’ll fill you in on everything we know about Pete Davidson’s baby announcement. Looks like Petey-boy’s BDE is about to stand for Big Dad Energy.
