  • BTS, Olivia Rodrigo To Perform At Grammys, Evan Rachel Wood 'Not Scared' Of Marilyn Manson Lawsuit, Britney Spears Says Father Stripped Away 'Huge Part Of My Womanhood'

    BTS, Olivia Rodrigo, Billie Eilish and Lil Nas X are among the acts performing at this year’s Grammy Awards, it was announced Tuesday.

    Evan Rachel Wood said she is “steady as a rock” in the face of a defamation lawsuit filed by her alleged abuser, rocker Marilyn Manson.

    “I am not scared,” she said during an appearance on Monday’s episode of The View. “I am sad, because this is how it works. This is what pretty much every survivor that tries to expose someone in a position of power goes though, and this is part of the retaliation that keeps survivors quiet. This is why people don’t want to come forward. This was expected.”

    Britney Spears says her father Jamie Spears took away some of her womanhood when he placed her in a conservatorship in 2008.
