Following his performance at President Donald Trump’s Crypto Ball, fans have questions for Rick Ross. However, they are going to have to wait because according to reports, so does the Georgia Department of Revenue.
An exclusive In Touch Weekly report, the outlet claims Rick Ross (real name William Leonard Roberts) owes nearly $65,000 in taxes. In documents obtained by the publisher, the Georgia Department of Revenue accused the “Champagne Moments” rapper of skipping out on a five-figure tax debt.
Due to the hefty balance, a state tax execution was reportedly filed against Rick Ross late last year. Ross’ supposed “delinquent tax liabilities” amount to $64,995.21 and stem from a 2021 balance. While Ross’ initial 2021 tax bill came in at $29,043, that amount has ballooned with interests and other penalties on top of collection fees.
To date the interest allegedly clocked at $10,576. While penalties are supposed listed at $19,516.80. Lastly, collection fees for Ross’ supposed tax bill were documented at $5,808. At this time, a release of the execution has reportedly not been filed by the Georgia Department of Revenue, which means Rick Ross is still on the hook for the balance. An insider says the Georgia Department of Revenue could initiate steps to collect the balance soon.
Rick Ross has not yet released a statement regarding the report.
But before Gracie Abrams could even hit the road, fans have already launched a petition for The Secret Of Us: The Deluxe Tour‘s European wing. Supporters abroad desperately want Dora Jar removed as the officially opening act because “they aren’t familiar with her music.” Yesterday (January 25), Gracie Abrams slammed the petition while praising Dora Jar.
“Just hearing about this absolute ridiculousness,” wrote Abrams in Stereogum‘s Instagram comments. “So wildly uncool and bizarre and also just does not remotely add up. I’ve only seen everyone’s total excitement and I couldn’t be luckier or prouder to share a stage with this talented wonder. Stream everything she’s ever made whether or not you’re coming to the show. Dora forever and ever ”
Over on X (formerly Twitter), Dora Jar addressed the petition during an exchange with one fan. “Don’t worry this doesn’t bum me out,” she wrote. I’m here to perform for all the music loving open-hearted fans. those who aren’t interested can go buy merch while I’m playing (but they might as well let me entertain them tho…;)) an overwhelming amount of fans has been so kind & excited .”

During his monologue, Chalamet joked about his awards season losing stream. But as Chalamet delivered striking covers of Bob Dylan’s deep cuts “Tomorrow Is a Long Time,” “Outlaw Blues,” and “Three Angels,” viewers at home have declared him a winner in their hearts.
“What I did for Bob [Dylan] started during COVID,” he said. “Learning all the songs. The Bob songs I know how to play, 20% of which are in the movie so that was the first education. For the movie I had to learn thirteen songs. But in total I can probably play thirty.”
Chalamet covers of “Like A Rolling Stone” and “Girl From The North Country” can be heard on the soundtrack. With his SNL performance of “Tomorrow Is a Long Time,” “Outlaw Blues,” and “Three Angels” now in the history books, supporters are curious about what other tunes Chalamet learned.
Watch Timothée Chalamet’s performance cover of Bob Dylan’s “Tomorrow Is a Long Time” on Saturday Night Live above. Continue below to view Timothée Chalamet’s performance cover of Bob Dylan’s “Outlaw Blues” and “Three Angels.”
Timothée Chalamet won Bob Dylan over for his portrayal of him in A Complete Unknown. However, the actor hasn’t received the same recognition this awards season (just yet). Yesterday (January 25), Timothée Chalamet turned the “sting” of his losing streak into a light-hearted joke during his Saturday Night Live monologue.
For his seemingly A Complete Unknown final promotional appearance before the 2025 Oscars, Timothée Chalamet served as both SNL‘s host and music guest. Instead of trotting down humble road, Chalamet flatted out expressed his desire to take home a win for the biopic.
“I’m truly overjoyed,” he said. “I was literally crying in my dressing room when I found out because the entire creative team worked so incredibly hard bringing to life the brilliant artist Bob Dylan, the man whose music and career has become a guiding light to me.”
He continued: “And it’s an enormous honor going to these award shows. It’s such a great experience, but I just keep losing. Each time it gets harder to pretend it doesn’t sting.”
The show then cut to a montage of his various award show losses over the years. “But the most embarrassing part is, I’ve had this sad little speech in my pocket for about four years, that I’ve never gotten a chance to read,” he said.
A Complete Unknown has already lost out at several regional award ceremonies and the Golden Globes. Still, there are several major shows in the running to break the streak including the Academy Awards (Oscars), Screen Actors Guild Awards, and today’s (January 26) Critics’ Choice Awards.

Every single week, our TV and film experts will list the most important ten streaming selections for you to pop into your queues. We’re not strictly operating upon reviews or accrued streaming clicks (although yes, we’ve scoured the streaming site charts) but, instead, upon those selections that are really worth noticing amid the churning sea of content. There’s a lot out there, after all, and your time is valuable.
Rebecca Ferguson’s Juliette lives to head underground another day with Steve Zahn’s Solo ending this second season with a new family. The Graham Yost series will likewise survive for another two seasons to complete Hugh Howey’s saga, and if you were wondering who the hell those new characters were in this season’s closing moments, you are not alone. Sh*t is about to get strange with warring settings that will be truly bizarre to behold after Yost’s careful worldbuilding. Juliette, though, will remain a constant.
C’mon, Taylor Sheridan. There’s very little doubt that a second season will be announced for Billy Bob Thornton’s weary oil industry deputy who looks to now be an oil titan after the fate of Jon Hamm’s Monty. Also, we should see much more of Demi Moore if this show continues with Jacob Lofland’s Cooper and Michelle Randolph’s Ainsley keeping the younger generation appeal strong, too. Likewise, Lioness and Tulsa King viewer would not be mad if, say, Paramount+ made a mass renewal announcement, but for sure, 1923 will return in February for more Yellowstone Universe ranch-protecting scenes.
Noah Wyle is back in scrubs as an exhausted physician in Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Hospital’s emergency room. This series not only throws out heavy ER vibes but borrows FOX’s 24 gimmick by telling a “real-time” story in which each episode takes place over an hour with the 15-episode season adding up to this crew needing a nap. This series isn’t exactly a primetime soap opera like ER was, but from the looks of this show’s early appeal, audiences will never tire of medical dramas.
These spy BFFs will not drop off the charts, so if you haven’t caught this cozy little six-episode first season yet, the invitation still beckons. Keira Knightley and Ben Whishaw are adorable together even when soaked in blood and out for vengeance, and this show probably also proves that there are not enough lady/gay best friend dynamics outside of the “mimosas at brunch” crowd. Hollywood, consider yourself on notice because these Brits are cornering that market while also happening to pull off spy-assassin action scenes and a second season renewal before their debut. Win, win, and win.
Sketchy The White Lotus nephew Leo Woodall stars in this streaming permutation about a postgrad math student who could harness the world’s computers via a complicated prime-number scheme. Naturally, this raises eyebrows from a lady NSA agent, and will they hook up? C’mon, y’all. Ridley Scott produced this series, too, in case you need to be talked into checking out the 79th conspiracy-centered streaming series to land in the past year or so.
A team of creative minds behind Narcos, The Revenant, and Friday Night Lights have come together for this Neo-Western limited series in which Taylor Kitsch and Betty Gilpin go through hell on earth. The year is 1857, and they’re fighting through frigid elements amid the Mountain Meadows Massacre, during which Mormon soldiers killed hundreds of pioneers at the behest of Brigham Young (Kim Coates of Sons Of Anarchy). This clash involves Indigenous nationals also rising up to fight for their own survival within the same contested territory, and this ain’t Yellowstone, baby.
It was virtually guaranteed that Netflix viewers would gobble up Cameron Diaz’s return to movies like candy, and co-star Jamie Foxx only added to the appeal. Likewise Diaz portrays an elite CIA spy who has been retired for 15 years with her spy-husband (Foxx), but somehow, their cover disintegrates, and they’re back in the espionage saddle again. This microwave popcorn flick isn’t cerebral, and it doesn’t want to be, so there.
The return to office is complete, and man, Milchick is pissed off. Last week, one of the core four did not accurately describe their Innie-as-Outie experience, and that doesn’t even begin to cover the eerie vibes flowing when Mark returned to office. Creator Dan Erickson and director Ben Stiller scored a massive hit, and even three years away didn’t dampen the enthusiasm for this corporate culture and work-life balance satire. This season will also run ten episodes, so that adds up to months of weekly updates before the wait will begin for more. As we’ve said on several occasions, Apple TV+ knows how to crush the sci-fi game, and their adventurous embrace of the genre will bring much more superiority in the future.
Peter Sutherland’s Night Action adventures will take him to Istanbul for a third season, but first, he heads from D.C. to Bangkok and back to Manhattan while keeping the Reacher-lite fires burning before the Big Guy returns next month on Amazon. This series tends to complicate its own story as seasons progress, but the emotional resonance of the characters is also on point. Likewise, there is chemistry out the tush for Peter and Rose, who didn’t necessarily need to appear in this season, but the show is better for her involvement. As it turns out, The Night Agent considers the effects of high-stress espionage operations on the human mind. It’s an angle that is seldom explored within stories where the adrenaline flies at any given moment, and you know what, The Night Agent might not be as frivolous as it seems.
1. Twin Peaks – Twin Peaks Productions/Spelling Television series streaming on Paramount+
Following David Lynch’s death at age 78, the binging of his phantasmagorical crime series has gone down hard with people climbing back onboard Agent Cooper’s investigation into who killed Laura Palmer. Likewise, Twin Peaks: The Return is receiving an otherworldly amount of visitors to revisit the scene of the crime 25 years later with the help of the thrillingly dulcet tones of “The Nine Inch Nails.” Sure, Mulholland Drive is trending like wildfire, too, but there’s “nothing like a great cup of coffee” to relive this Great’s past.
According to recent reports, Lily Allen is currently a single woman. Sadly, after five years together the “Smile” singer and David Harbour have supposedly split. However, offers to swoop Allen up off the dating streets have already come flooding in.
During a sit down with Grazia UK‘s Lily Allen claimed that one of her romantic suitors was a fellow musician–rapper Central Cee. As Allen and podcast co-host Miquita Oliver played Who’s Most Likely To, the topic of private message became a point of chatter.
When the ladies spoke about direct messages (DMs) they received on social media, Allen said Central Cee supposedly made a move attempting to look in some sexual healing.
“It happens all the time,” said Allen.
While detailing the exchange, Allen said the brief conversation was void of any romance. Still, Central Cee’s intentions (although subtle) were quite clear. Central Cee alleged asked Allen about her whereabouts, writing: “Where you at?”
At the time, Allen was traveling out of London so a meetup was not possible. “I was like, ‘I’m in the departure lounge at Heathrow [Airport],” she said. “Sorry, next time.”
This prompted Oliver to ask: “What do you think he was looking for?”
Despite the steady increase of physical music purchases (thanks to vinyl’s growing popularity), streaming is here to stay. Several recording artists, songwriters, and producers have aired out their grievances with digital streaming platforms. For Björk, her beef is mainly directed at Spotify.
During an interview with Dagens Nyheter, the “Sorrowful Soil” musician slammed the platform. “Spotify is probably the worst thing that has happened to musicians,” she said.
Björk went on to express her frustration with streaming in general, saying: “The streaming culture has changed an entire society and an entire generation of artists.”
Following Björk’s remarks, users online chimed in with conflicting opinions across X (formerly Twitter).
“There’s a lot of music I would have never come across if it hadn’t been for streaming sites,” argued one user.
Later in the chat, Björk pointed out that the publicly visible metrics on platforms like Spotify have fueled chart obsession. As a result, musicians sacrifice artistic integrity for instant success.
“I agree streaming is kinda ruining music sadly it’s causing artists to make short songs just for fame,” chimed another user.
Others accused of being a hypocrite after she sat down for a conversation with Zane Lowe for Apple Music.
“But she’s doing an interview for a streaming service? ,” penned one user.
Björk has not addressed the backlash regarding her bold statement.
Right now, music biopics are all the rage. Two of the most anticipated projects include features films about the late Michael Jackson and Britney Spears. While, the chronicling of Britney Spears’ life has begun just, yet fans have already begun verbalizing their dream cast.
The insider says Spears is completely onboard with the idea. “Britney adores Natalie Portman and thinks she’s such an incredible actress,” said the source. “She’d love to see her cast and thinks with the right make-up artist she could easily be transformed. The same goes for Selena Gomez.”
Spears supposedly cited Gomez’s early start in the industry as an added selling point. “She’s someone Britney loves as a person and as an artist,” said the insider. “She thinks she’s mighty talented and knows she’d also have her own history as a child star to draw on, which would make things easier.”
This news comes on the heels of Chu telling ET that he would be combing through viral suggestions online that at the time included Sydney Sweeney and Sabrina Carpenter.
