Scavengers Reign is one of the best animated shows in recent years, with a perfect 100 percent “Fresh” rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Unfortunately, the Emmy-winning series, which follows the survivors of a spaceship that lands on a bizarre alien planet, has not been picked up for season 2.

“As of right now, Scavengers Reign is not being renewed for a second season,” co-creator Joe Bennett wrote on Instagram. “I wanted to let everyone know directly because I really love our fanbase, they’ve been such champions for the show, and I don’t want to leave everyone hanging.”

Scavengers Reign premiered on Max before Netflix acquired the streaming rights in the hopes of finding a bigger audience.

Bennett continued, “We’ve had to fight tooth and nail every step of the way to get this show made, starting all the way back in 2016 with the Scavengers short film to the release of the first season last year. It’s a case study for believing in something and persevering through a million and one hurdles. But, it got made, thanks especially to so many people who supported it along the way, in big and small ways.”

After thanking the show’s animators, among others, Bennett vowed that “this is not the end. There is more story to be told, we are ready to make another season, and we produced in-house at Green Street a teaser for what was going to come in the second season.” You can see that here. Also, watch Scavengers Reign! It’s very good.

Beyoncé went all out for Halloween this year, taking to social media to show off multiple costumes. One post saw her modeling a Betty Davis look, and another saw her as topless Prince. Now, a few days into November, Beyoncé has finally concluded her Halloween decorations.

She just shared a slew of Pamela Anderson-inspired looks in a new video titled “Beywatch.” Sure enough, it sees Beyoncé modeling the classic Baywatch swimsuit, as well as her Barb Wire character and her look from the 1999 MTV Video Music Awards. The video is set to the Cowboy Carter song “Bodyguard.”

In a follow-up post, Beyoncé wrote, “BEYLLOWEEN FIN,” indicating that Bey has finished her run of 2024 costumes.

This comes after Beyoncé explained why she didn’t release any music videos for Renaissance or Cowboy Carter, saying, “I thought it was important that during a time where all we see is visuals, that the world can focus on the voice. The music is so rich in history and instrumentation. It takes months to digest, research, and understand. The music needed space to breathe on its own. […] Sometimes a visual can be a distraction from the quality of the voice and the music. The years of hard work and detail put into an album that takes over four years! The music is enough. The fans from all over the world became the visual. We all got the visual on tour. We then got more visuals from my film.”

So, this may ultimately be the closest thing we get to a Cowboy Carter video.

Gucci Mane has been credited as a musical influence by several rising hip-hop acts. However, the “Now It’s Real” rapper has been accused of dipping into another person’s creative fountain without properly crediting them.

Yesterday (November 4), Gucci Mane’s ex-girlfriend, former collaborator, and fellow rapper Mac Bre-Z took to her official Instagram with a host of damning allegations including theft, domestic violence, and failure to pay or credit her past creative contributions.

In a series of post, Mac Bre-Z claimed to have been Gucci Mane’s first ever signed recording artist (seemingly to 1017 Records).

“You loved collaborating with me on your albums & mixtapes,” she wrote. “But I would love to get paid for my writing credits. They say you changed for the better. So Why haven’t you done the right thing & just compensate me for everything I’m entitled to? Everybody eating off these records but me.”

Buried in the post, Mac Bre-Z accused Gucci Mane of domestic violence. “I never did a tell all & exposed any stories about your personal life over the 6 years we were together,” she wrote. “When you punched me in the face I could’ve snitched & had you arrested while you were on bond for the murder case of Jeezy artist. I never bad-mouthed you in the media or tried to assassinate your character.”

She went on to hint at potentially taking legal action, writing: “Enough is Enough. Times Up. I’m coming for what’s rightfully mine. Respectfully .”

She is credited as a featured artist on Gucci Mane’s song “Go Head,” which appears on his debut album Trap House. However, Mac Bre-Z claims that she’s made several contributions to other tracks but did not specify which ones.

In a separate upload, Mac Bre-Z alleged that her creatives concepts were hijacked before she could flesh it out for herself. “Gucci [has] been stealing my ideas & running off with them,” she wrote. “Zaytoven was recording me at his mama house when Radric walked into my studio session while I was recording my song ‘Da Kandi Lady’ from my DJ Scream mixtape. He straight stole my idea. Put Brick Squad on it and shot a music video to it. Y’all don’t know the half of what I went through in this industry. I’m telling my story.”

Mac Bre-Z closed by threatening to outline it all in a documentary titled, Life After So Icy.

Gucci Mane has not publicly addressed Mac Bre-Z’s accusation yet.

Lil Uzi Vert has gone to get length to secure guest verse from huge acts like Nicki Minaj. But not everyone sees the “Chill Bae” rapper’s unique charm.

With Lil Uzi Vert’s latest project, Eternal Atake 2, on streaming platforms listeners noticed something off about its guest appearances. On Lil Uzi Vert’s track “The Rush,” singer Carlos PenaVega isn’t present despite being labeled as a Big Time Rush feature.

On November 1, Carlos PenaVega’s wife and fellow entertainer, Alexa PenaVega explained his notable absence in a post on X (formerly Twitter). “Today a song was released that featured the BTR boys minus Carlos because it did not align with his values,” she wrote. “While thankful for the opportunity Carlos kindly passed. Unfortunately it was not credited properly and is currently being represented as a BTR feature. Not a Kendall, Logan and James feature.”

Just what “values” Alexa is referring is unclear. But that hasn’t stopped her vague statement from causing an uproar online. Many are in support of Carlos’ alleged reasoning. While others slammed the singer for what and who he’s seemingly supported in the past.

Read Alexa PenaVega’s full statement below.

Hey friends. Wanted to hop on here to address something. We work super hard to protect our values and the things we believe in especially when it comes to creating content that is mostly family-friendly or what one would consider “safe”.

Today a song was released that featured the BTR boys minus Carlos because it did not align with his values. While thankful for the opportunity Carlos kindly passed. Unfortunately it was not credited properly and is currently being represented as a BTR feature. Not a Kendall, Logan and James feature.

As a wife who has watched Carlos navigate his values alone in an industry not set up for “family” I have been at times both incredibly proud and totally heartbroken for him. This is not putting anyone down. We just respectfully would like to make the people who follow us aware of the mishap and address that this was something he was not a part of.

God Bless

With Ja Morant missing almost all of last season due to suspension and injury (playing just 9 games), he found himself a bit outside the conversation for top point guards in the NBA coming into the 2024-25 season. It was a lost season for both Morant and the Grizzlies last year, and both player and team are looking to remind the NBA of their talents early this season.

While it’s been an up-and-down start to the year, Morant has offered reminders of his unique brilliance with highlight reel plays that only he produces right now in the NBA. On Monday night in Brooklyn he offered up a pair of outrageous finishes as he was strong on the B-button with two 360 layups against the Nets. The first came on a drive against Nic Claxton, where Morant jumped in the air and spun all the way across the lane for a silky finish with his left. The second was even more spontaneous, as Morant went up thinking about a poster dunk on Cam Johnson before changing his mind for another spinning lefty layup, changing hands in mid-air.

It’s a pair of plays that perfectly encapsulate Morant’s singular ability as a high-flying guard. The first is so smooth as he just glides effortlessly through the air, while the second started with him thinking power but he had the time and ability to change his plan (and hands) mid-flight for the finish.

If Jeopardy contestants know who you are, you have (sort of) officially made it. Between that, his Beyoncé co-sign and sheer chart dominance, Shaboozey is an undeniable country music force.

Since its release, Shaboozey’s single “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” has been a consistent fixture on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart. Today (November 4), the outlet confirmed that the single set another record. As of the chart’s last update, “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” is now tied with three other smashes to hold the coveted No. 1 spot for at least 16 weeks, which includes Morgan Wallen’s 2023 hit “Last Night.”

The other two hits include 16, Luis Fonsi & Daddy Yankee’s 2017 banger “Despacito” featuring Justin Bieber and Mariah Carey & Boyz II Men’s 1995 collaboration “One Sweet Day.” However, Lil Nas X’s 2019 breakthrough track “Old Town Road” (the version that features Billy Ray Cyrus) still maintains the overall record.

Back then, Lil Nas X’s country hybrid record held tight to the No. 1 spot for 19 weeks. For now, Shaboozey can brag about “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” having “the longest reign of the 2020s” as the outlet pointed out.

Only time will tell if Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” cross the 19 weeks at No. 1 mark. But fans surely are rooting for his pursuit of the career milestone.

The Golden State Warriors traveled to Washington to take on the Wizards on Monday night, which meant that the Warriors crossed paths with an old friend, Jordan Poole. An important part of the team’s last title, Poole was traded to the Wizards last season in the aftermath of a tumultuous year with the Dubs.

During Monday night’s game, the player responsibility for all that turmoil crossed paths with Poole once again, as the high-scoring guard had a run-in with Draymond Green. Poole knocked down a triple in the waning moments of the second quarter as Green attempted to contest his shot, and after it went in, he pointed right at Green. On the ensuing Warriors possession before the half, Steph Curry knocked down a three — Poole tried to contest it, he was unsuccessful, and Green immediately pointed right at him.

During training camp ahead of the 2022-23 season, Poole and Green were involved in an altercation during practice that ended with Green punching his then-teammate. Green received a suspension and a fine from the team as a result. While Poole received a 4-year, $140 million contract extension from the team not long after this, he really struggled during the ensuing season, and the following summer, he was sent to Washington in a trade for Chris Paul.

Charli XCX’s impact in music has been set in stone. Now, the “Sympathy Is A Knife” singer is looking to do the same in the film industry. Today (November 4), Charli XCX’s onscreen resume has grown to include the depiction of another European badass.

According to Deadline, Charli XCX as been cast in Romain Gavras‘ forthcoming English-language debut movie, Sacrifice.

The outlet reveals that Sacrifice is “loosely inspired” by famed French figure Joan Of Arc’s dazzling story. Fellow musician Yung Lean and her “360” remix collaborator will star alongside Charli XCX in the picture. Although Charli XCX has a budding film resume, Sacrifice marks Yung Lean’s film debut.

Anya Taylor-Joy will star in the movie as Joan. Other actors set to appear in Sacrifice include Chris Evans, Salma Hayek Pinault, Sam Richardson, Vincent Cassel, John Malkovich, Ambika Mod, Jade Croot, Jeremy O. Harris, and Miriam Silverman.

The outlet states filming has already begun. With production underway in Greece and Bulgaria. As for what moviegoers should expect once it hits the screen, the synopsis for Sacrifice reads: “This tells the story of Joan (Taylor-Joy), a zealous spirit driven by a volcanic prophecy only she can hear, who is on a mission to save the world from a fiery reckoning. Along with her militia of mystical disciples, she hijacks a glamorous charity gala and takes three hostages: Mike Tyler (Evans), a beleaguered movie star desperate for redemption, Bracken (Cassel), the world’s richest man, and Katie (Mod), who’s just unlucky. They are forced on a journey through forest and fire until Mike faces the ultimate question: what would he sacrifice for humanity?”

Sacrifice hasn’t received a release date yet.

Rihanna is letting her inner political bad gyal show. The “Lift Me Up” singer’s billionaire status and wide-spanning business empire afford her endless luxuries. Still, some things are out of Rihanna’s reach, such as voting in US elections due to her non-resident status.

With the dozens of celebrity endorsements in the 2024 presidential campaign cycle, Rihanna appears to have shared her own. Today (November 4), Rihanna took to Instagram with a joke about the lengths she is willing to go to in order to cast her vote seemingly for Vice President Kamala Harris.

“When protecting pussies and firing pussies can happen all in one vote #votecauseicant #TanSuitSeason,” read the post’s caption.

But the subtext placed over the video has followers literally laughing out loud. “POV: me trying to sneak into the polls with my son’s passport #votecauseicant,” wrote Rihanna.

In all seriousness, voter fraud isn’t a laughing matter. However, the nature of Rihanna’s lighthearted line and humor personality users online could help but chuckle.

To avoid Rihanna’s upload being viewed as a potential legal matter, some fans have sent messages to Rihanna’s partner and fellow musician Asap Rocky, whom she shares two sons to keep a close eye on her.

No one wants to see Rihanna fighting a deportation case before her long-awaited album is released.

Jason Kelce is more popular on a national scale now than he ever was as an All-Pro center with the Philadelphia Eagles — although, his Super Bowl parade performance cemented his status as a Philly legend. Kelce is on ESPN’s Monday Night Countdown now and has a wildly popular podcast with his brother Travis, as the brothers have seen their stardom leap from the sports world to pop culture in general, due in no small part to Travis’ relationship with Taylor Swift that has brought her legions of fans to them.

While there are the obvious benefits of that popularity in the form of massive media deals, there are also the trappings of fame that come with the territory of being immediately recognizable to most any person. On Saturday, Jason was reminded of that when he was in State College for Ohio State-Penn State and had a heckler call Travis a gay slur for dating Swift while holding his phone out recording. That jackass was seeking a reaction and got one in the form of Jason grabbing his phone and spiking it on the ground, with videos from other nearby going viral immediately.

On Monday night, Kelce addressed the incident at the top of Monday Night Countdown and issued an apology, noting that’s not how he wants to act and that he doesn’t want to “greet hate with hate.”

The truth is, the majority of people saw him spike the phone and felt that was an extremely reasonable response, as we need to remind people that there are real consequences to saying vile things — something the internet has made far too easy to do with no repercussions. Still, Kelce felt bad enough about it to issue an apology on national television and seemed very genuinely upset by his own actions, even if the majority of people saw them as defensible.
