The film picks up after years of separation and devastation on Eternia, with the pair navigating not only war and survival, but also the emotional distance that formed between them over time.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 id=\"h-filling-in-the-years-between-teela-and-duncan\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Filling in the years between Teela and Duncan\u003C/h2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Mendes, understanding what happened in the years audiences don’t initially see was key to grounding Teela emotionally.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“I talked to Travis a lot about that to understand,” Mendes said. “A lot of years passed between what we see in the beginning and what we see in the middle of the film.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“And my understanding was just that after Eternia was destroyed… after Eternia is destroyed, Teela has spent the last however many years fighting with the rebellion, trying to restore Eternia and protect it,” she continued. “And feeling very disconnected from her father who has given up on the fight.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Elba explained that Duncan’s emotional collapse following Eternia’s destruction shaped much of how he approached the character.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“There was a lot of discussion about what happens to him,” Elba said. “I mean, he fails drastically, turns to the bottle, but he also just wants to be the shining emblem to his daughter that he always was and he couldn&#8217;t.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“He got destroyed in that fight.

That ain&#8217;t happening,” Elba joked. “And then there was certainly that dynamic between the two of them, but there&#8217;s always love at the heart of it. Even when she&#8217;s snappy at him, I think there&#8217;s love at the—”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mendes added that Teela’s strength is deeply tied to wanting validation from her father.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“Deep down, there&#8217;s a lot of respect because I feel like she wants him to be proud of her,” she said. “I really feel that. That she&#8217;s become this tough fighter because she wants him to look at her and be like, ‘Wow, look at the strong daughter that I raised.’”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Directed by Travis Knight, \u003Cem>Masters of the Universe\u003C/em> stars Nicholas Galitzine, Camila Mendes, Alison Brie, James Purefoy, Morena Baccarin, Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson, Charlotte Riley, Kristen Wiig as the voice of Roboto, Jared Leto and Idris Elba.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In \u003Cem>Masters of the Universe\u003C/em>, Prince Adam (Galitzine) returns to Eternia after 15 years to find the kingdom overtaken by Skeletor (Leto).

Kemp has taken her talents to \u003Ca href=\"http://blavity.com/tags/netflix\">Netflix\u003C/a> with an action-packed crime thriller that unpacks the meaning of a nemesis and just how far one man will go to bring down his archenemy.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When reflecting on iconic literary nemeses — think Hannibal Lecter or Lord Voldemort — a common thread is that they often share a personal, deep-rooted connection with the hero, going so far as to mirror the hero’s traits or act as their shadow.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the case of \u003Cem>Nemesis\u003C/em>, led by Matthew Law and Y’lan Noel, their portrayals of Isaiah Stiles and Coltrane Wilder embody that dynamic fully.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-show-filled-with-main-character-energy\">A show filled with main character energy\u003C/h2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“I think these are two men who are, as much as the Jungian analysis that I might try to spring into, and saying that the shadow side, like you’re speaking about, is so mirrored for them,” Law told Blavity. “I think I’m too compromised as a person with my love for Isaiah, but there is definitely this sort of fog of war where he can’t even see beyond the fact that all he knows is that this man is an enemy and has to be eliminated.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Law added, “I don’t think he even has the space to see anything different than him being a villain and Isaiah being a hero, even as his life starts to crumble around him.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Noel agreed that both characters view themselves as the protagonist of the story.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“Everybody’s the main character in their story,” Noel said. “Coltrane, for sure, believes that he’s the hero, and everything that he’s doing is virtuous and noble and all of those things. He also thinks that he needs to do this.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Noel explained that Coltrane’s motivations are rooted in protecting the life he’s built.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“He’s driven by this desire to afford his men and his family this lifestyle,” he continued. “Now, of course, I think ultimately, it’s a line. Who’s bad and who’s good depends on who shows up that day, who’s being asked, right?”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-downfall-of-obsession\">The downfall of obsession\u003C/h2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both characters become consumed with outsmarting the other, ultimately pushing themselves toward destruction. At its core, \u003Cem>Nemesis\u003C/em> explores the idea of vengeance and what happens when obsession overtakes reason.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“It’s like sound and fury signifying nothing,” Law said. “I mean, if I zoom out of the show, outside of Isaiah’s perspective, you’re watching the self-destruction in real time by that obsession.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He continued, “We’ve been talking about the value of obsession. I have these qualities myself, and to also watch the dangers of them and the way they can become a cannibalistic practice that starts to eat at the edges of your life.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Law also pointed to the relationships both men risk sacrificing in pursuit of revenge.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“These are men who are blessed to have people who love them,” he said. “Even if, well, at least for Isaiah, maybe you can’t see that so clearly. But I think for all of us, we have to question where that line is of enough-ness. Like, okay, that’s enough.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Coltrane, obsession eventually transforms into a need for control.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“Obsession can quickly become, I think at least for Coltrane, an obsession with control,” Noel explained. “And that’s the thing that becomes really self-sabotaging, and he doesn’t know how to deal with not being in control.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because Coltrane has spent much of his life succeeding through domination and power, Noel said the character struggles once that certainty begins slipping away.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“When he’s been in control, he’s won, and there’s more confidence coming from the ability to, like, when you win, it’s like, ‘Oh yeah, I become more and more unstoppable every time,’” Noel said. “And what happens when you have no more tail left to eat? Because these are two men who know how to make war. I just don’t think they know how to make peace.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All eight episodes of \u003Cem>Nemesis\u003C/em> are now streaming on Netflix.\u003C/p>\n",[78,79],{"id":26,"name":27,"slug":28,"description":17,"image":29},{"id":80,"name":81,"slug":82,"description":17,"image":29},100,"Television","television",[],{"url":85,"thumbnail":86,"credit":87,"title":88,"alt":89,"type":41,"width":90,"height":91,"mimeType":44},"https://cms.blavity.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,slow-connection-quality=30,onerror=redirect/https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/NEM_103_Unit_01711R-scaled.jpg","https://cms.blavity.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,slow-connection-quality=30,onerror=redirect/https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/NEM_103_Unit_01711R-150x100.jpg","Photo: Saeed Adyani/Netflix","NEM_103_Unit_01711R","Nemesis.

While the original novels position Justin differently within Hannah’s story, creator and co-showrunner Louisa Levy revealed that turning him into a musician instead of an athlete helped unlock a deeper emotional parallel between the two characters and expanded Hannah’s personal arc beyond romance.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“Honestly, it unlocked a few things for me,” Levy told Blavity&#8217;s Shadow and Act. “Because it enabled me to externalize a lot of what Hannah&#8217;s going through.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The creator explained that the shift also connected directly to another major change she wanted to make for the adaptation.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“Hannah is already a singer-songwriter in the book, and in our show I wanted the audience to follow her journey to get there,” she said. “It gives her an arc that is separate and apart from her love story with Garrett (Belmont Cameli), but of course still complements it.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Levy added that making Justin a musician created a more natural emotional parallel between him and Hannah.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“Having her crush be a musician makes total sense because that is who she wants to be,” she explained. “She wants to be confident enough to stand on stage the way Justin does. So she&#8217;s not only crushing on him, but she&#8217;s also crushing on his confidence.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Based on the bestselling book series, \u003Cem>Off Campus\u003C/em> follows an elite college hockey team and the women in their lives as they navigate love, heartbreak, friendship and self-discovery. Season 1 centers on the “opposites attract” romance between quiet songwriter Hannah and Briar University hockey star Garrett.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The series also stars Mika Abdalla as Allie, Antonio Cipriano as John, Stephen Kalyn as Dean and Jalen Thomas Brooks.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"

seasons will pivot to Dean (Kalyn) and Allie’s (Abdalla) story instead of John (Cipriano) and Grace’s, Levy is keeping things close to the vest for now.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“I can&#8217;t spoil that for fans just yet,” she said, “but I can say that when I get to explore the Dean and Allie love story, I&#8217;m so excited about telling their story.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Levy teased that their dynamic feels very different from Hannah and Garrett’s relationship while still carrying emotional depth.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“I think that there&#8217;s something very fun and refreshing about how they get together that&#8217;s very different from Hannah and Garrett&#8217;s,” she said. “But they have their own dark things to explore in their own stories while still remaining fun and optimistic and light and so, so beautiful.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She also hinted that longtime readers of the books will have plenty to look forward to.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“There&#8217;s some fan

chapter in the \u003Cem>\u003Ca href=\"http://blavity.com/tags/yellowstone\">Yellowstone\u003C/a>\u003C/em> series. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Reilly, stepping back into Beth Dutton’s world wasn’t really a return at all.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“It wasn&#8217;t like revisiting because I felt like I hadn&#8217;t stopped playing her because it was literally only a year,” Reilly said. “I knew that we were going to be doing it so I never let her go and then picked her up again in my mind.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What interested her most this time around was figuring out who Beth becomes after the death of her father.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“The clue for me was in who is she now after her father&#8217;s death,” she said. “What gap does that leave in a person when you lose somebody you love so much when her reason to live was for somebody else and somebody else&#8217;s dream?”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reilly said the ending of \u003Cem>Yellowstone\u003C/em> left lingering questions that carried directly into this new series.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“So once that all very poetically and beautifully got summed up and finished and finalized at the end of \u003Cem>Yellowstone\u003C/em>, I was left with a character who I wondered, who are you now?” she said. “Who are you after all of that?”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beth may not have much time to sit in those emotions as she and Rip attempt to build a new life in Texas, but Reilly said the uncertainty remains embedded in the character.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“And so, the questions lingered in me, and I didn&#8217;t necessarily rush to answer them,” she said. “I think she&#8217;s trying to figure it out.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bening’s character, Beulah Jackson, is wrestling with many of those same emotional wounds.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“I&#8217;m a rancher. I inherited a ranch from my father very much like Beth, still wrapped up in my father who has been dead forever,” Bening said.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Bening describes her, Beulah is a woman whose world is already unraveling.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“I think this is a woman who as we meet her, things are already falling apart and that&#8217;s why it&#8217;s good writing and it gave me something to play,” she said.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“Her ranch and her ranch world is fractured because she&#8217;s having trouble keeping it going like a lot of ranchers do in the present economy,” Bening continued. “She&#8217;s got two sons who one of whom is very much in trouble and she&#8217;s trying to make him okay.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But underneath all of that is someone longing for connection and healing.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“She has tremendous heartbreak inside of her that she&#8217;s carried with her whole life, that she&#8217;s still trying to heal and trying to put back together desperately,” Bening said.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That emotional depth is what made the dynamic opposite Ed Harris especially compelling for her.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“That&#8217;s why this story with Ed Harris and knowing that Ed was going to play this part made it so interesting and potentially really interesting to me,” she said.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alongside Kelly Reilly, Cole Hauser, Ed Harris and Annette Bening, \u003Cem>Dutton Ranch\u003C/em> also stars Finn Little, Juan Pablo Raba, Jai Courtney, J.R.

It reflects the views of Americans after nearly a year of President Donald Trump’s second term in office, which has seen economic instability, political turmoil and erratic foreign and domestic policies.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Black and Hispanic Americans, the two groups least likely to see things improving in the future, 2025 also saw various efforts to whitewash American history, a spike in \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/unemployment-rate-for-black-people-is-the-highest-since-the-pandemic\">Black unemployment\u003C/a> driven in part by the alleged targeting of Black officials at independent government agencies for dismissal, and a series of heavy-handed \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/trump-uses-slur-on-thanksgiving-when-discussing-pause-third-world-countries-immigrants\">immigration crackdowns\u003C/a> that largely targeted immigrant Hispanic and Black communities.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Partisan divide exists, but pessimism spans both Republicans and Democrats\u003C/h2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The negative view of the country’s prospects represents a shift over time.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 2025 Pew survey shows that only 40% of adult Americans see the country’s best days are ahead. That figure is down from the 44% who saw America’s best days ahead in 2014.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This shift in opinion from the second Obama administration to Trump’s second presidency masks a partisan divide. More Republicans surveyed in 2025, 46%, see the United States’ best days ahead than Republicans surveyed in 2014, when only 36% felt that way.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That positive shift among Republicans is outweighed, however, by a sharp negative shift among Democrats. In 2014, a significant majority of Democrats surveyed, 57%, believed the country’s best days were ahead. By 2025, only 34% of Democrats surveyed shared that view.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In absolute terms, however, both parties are currently wary of the country’s future. About 39% of Republicans and 50% of Democrats said they were either very or somewhat pessimistic about the future, while only 33% of Republicans and 25% of Democrats said they were optimistic about where the country will be in 50 years.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the 250th anniversary of American independence approaching, most Americans currently have a negative outlook on the country’s future. As the party behind the “Make America Great Again” slogan seeks to hold onto power after this year’s midterm elections, the new Pew Research Center survey suggests the prevailing mood across the country is that the United States’ greatest days may already be in the past.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003C/p>\n",[177],{"id":178,"name":179,"slug":180,"description":17,"image":29},120,"Politics","politics",[182],{"id":183,"name":184,"slug":185,"description":17,"image":17},44529,"top stories","top-stories",{"url":187,"thumbnail":188,"credit":189,"title":190,"alt":191,"type":41,"width":192,"height":193,"mimeType":44},"https://cms.blavity.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,slow-connection-quality=30,onerror=redirect/https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/GettyImages-2213946093.jpg","https://cms.blavity.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,slow-connection-quality=30,onerror=redirect/https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/GettyImages-2213946093-150x100.jpg","Photo: Getty Images\n","Woman getting cold sitting under the blanket indoors.

And&#8230;it is a huge undertaking just to do that. And then you make that person responsible for the fate of somebody else and for multiple other people in a lot of ways.

But I think there&#8217;s a sort of special place for Josh, that there&#8217;s a sense that they are bonded forever, but&#8230;she&#8217;s not waiting for him outside. There were versions where that was the case, that there was a sort of [hope] they were gonna be reunited, but ultimately it didn&#8217;t feel probably honest for the two of them. So it sort of felt right to us that there was a sense that there was real love there, but not necessarily that things always work out.&#8221;\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Isaac said that he sees Josh as &#8220;somebody who&#8217;s just white-knuckling the entire time.&#8221;\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;You know, his marriage, his job, his position, everything&#8217;s about just gripping as hard as he can. And so when he finally realizes that in that moment&#8230;with Lindsay that it&#8217;s over, you know, it&#8217;s really like he accepts the death of that whole life. That&#8217;s when he&#8217;s reborn. He has an opportunity to actually finally live in the present moment.

[He is] able to come out and actually still have compassion and&#8230;to kind of let that [old life] go as well.

That is so many stories, if you think about them; so many of our greatest movies, some of our greatest books, so many of our greatest things. I think that as a person of color, we need more hero journeys, right? Because we start off in sometimes, a place that might be socio-economically, not what people say we should have, or this isn&#8217;t that. And we often go looking for things or want other things to validate us. And once we go out and see it, we want to come back home because we have that realization of like what we thought we wanted, we always really had, you know what I&#8217;m saying? I think we just don&#8217;t get home enough, you know what I&#8217;m saying, and I think that&#8217;s the thing, in terms of what I can gather from his version of how the losing affected him. He actually understood that the losing toward the end of his life was actually the thing that made him a winner.&#8221;\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cem>Jerry West: The Logo \u003C/em>is now streaming on Prime Video.\u003C/p>\n",[450,451,452],{"id":26,"name":27,"slug":28,"description":17,"image":29},{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"description":17,"image":29},{"id":309,"name":310,"slug":311,"description":17,"image":29},[],{"url":455,"thumbnail":456,"credit":457,"title":458,"alt":459,"type":41,"width":42,"height":276,"mimeType":44},"https://cms.blavity.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,slow-connection-quality=30,onerror=redirect/https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/GettyImages-2271230388.jpg","https://cms.blavity.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,slow-connection-quality=30,onerror=redirect/https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/GettyImages-2271230388-150x100.jpg","Director Kenya Barris attends the World Premiere Of Amazon Prime Video's \"Jerry West: The Logo\" at Culver Theater on April 13, 2026 in Culver City, California. | Photo by Robin L Marshall/Getty Images","World Premiere Of Amazon Prime Video’s “Jerry West: The Logo”","Director Kenya Barris attends the World Premiere Of Amazon Prime Video's \"Jerry West: The Logo\" at Culver Theater on April 13, 2026 in Culver City, California.","2026-04-23T09:08:10-04:00","2026-04-23 13:08:10","2026-04-23T09:08:19-04:00","2026-04-23 13:08:19",[],{"disableConnatixPlayer":51},{"disableAd":51,"disableConnatixPlayer":51,"enabledComments":51,"headScript":17},{"reviewer_name":17},1835,{"list":470,"total":602},[471,502,541,568],{"id":472,"author":473,"authors":474,"title":476,"subTitle":17,"excerpt":17,"slug":477,"body":478,"categories":479,"tags":482,"featuredMedia":486,"publishedAt":493,"publishedAtGMT":494,"updatedAt":495,"updatedAtGMT":496,"type":49,"listicle":497,"disableContentGate":51,"disableListicleNumbers":51,"canonicalUrl":17,"socialThumbnail":17,"readingTime":498,"customFields":499,"additional":500,"acf":501},72910153,{"id":9,"avatar":10,"firstName":11,"lastName":12,"displayName":13,"email":14,"username":15,"normalizedUsername":15,"description":16,"htmlBio":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":18},[475],{"id":9,"avatar":10,"firstName":11,"lastName":12,"displayName":13,"email":14,"username":15,"normalizedUsername":15,"description":16,"htmlBio":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":18},"La Toya Jackson, Brian Tyree Henry And Janelle James Revealed As 'RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 11' Guest Judges In Trailer","la-toya-jackson-brian-tyree-henry-drag-race-all-stars-trailer","\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first trailer for \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/entertainment/rupauls-drag-race-all-stars-season-11-cast-announced\">\u003Cem>RuPaul&#8217;s Drag Race All Stars \u003C/em>Season 11\u003C/a> has dropped, and the guest judge lineup includes Brian Tyree Henry, La Toya Jackson, Janelle James and more. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Others include Bronwyn Newport, Christina Ricci, Cooper Koch, Evan Mulrooney, Gina Gershon, Juno Temple, Kate Hudson and Reneé Rapp, as well as regulars Jamal Sims and Law Roach.

She was eliminated near the end of her original cycle before returning for the All-Stars and winning. Unfortunately, her title was stripped, initially without reason, after producers said they discovered she’d engaged in escorting services in her past. The blow was devastating personally and professionally, and she details the experience in \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/entertainment/the-price-is-right-claudia-jordan-kathleen-bradley-dirty-rotten-scandals\">E!’s \u003Cem>Dirty Rotten Scandals\u003C/em> series\u003C/a>. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As \u003Cem>ANTM\u003C/em> remains a topic of social conversation, Preston is pressing on. The award-winning journalist is back in her native hometown of Buffalo and making great strides, which she says would have never been possible had she not hit rock bottom as a result of the show. Blavity spoke with Preston about her life after the show, and why she chose forgiveness.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Chr>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>Let’s take it back to the beginning. During the cycle you landed on the show, was that the first cycle that you actually auditioned or had you auditioned prior? And what was your audition process like?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I auditioned two cycles before I actually landed on the show. I was on the first episode of cycle 12 and then didn&#8217;t make it into the house because they wanted me to do anger management. As far as my audition process, at first, I was just filling out apps, and they didn&#8217;t call me back or anything. And I figured it out pretty quickly that it took more than just that; it seemed a bit rigged. And then I ended up going to Knoxville. I took a Greyhound down there. I’d met a girl who went to Tuskegee University, and she was there auditioning as well.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And I went to Knoxville because I heard the casting director, Michelle Mock, was going to be there. Prior contestants that had been on previous cycles, whenever they spoke about getting on the show, they’d also mention being in front of Michelle Mock when they got selected. So I looked on the internet, and I saw all the dates that Michelle Mock was going to be at the auditions, and Knoxville was one of the dates. That was the first time that I went to audition after filling out the applications, but it wasn&#8217;t for the cycle that I originally went on, which was cycle 12.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>Did you end up completing anger management?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I did because I was trying to be on the show. And at the time, I didn’t even know if they had affordable anger management classes back home in Buffalo. But Michelle Mock told me to research some in my area, and most of them were free. So I did what she suggested, and I found a free class. I completed it and got my certificate, and emailed a copy to Michelle Mock, just knowing that I’d be on the very next cycle. There were several girls from previous seasons who’d auditioned and were told to come back, and they’d be on the following season. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen for me because the next season they did was for short models. So I had to wait. But once the time came around, I auditioned again and got in.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>Something that has always been puzzling to viewers is learning of the psych evaluation process. How extensive are these evaluations?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The psych eval is super long. They asked you so many questions, but in different ways. They switch up the way they ask the questions to see if your answers are consistent.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Initially, I figured they were all up in my business for a good reason. It is an unnatural environment we&#8217;re about to go in, so they want to make sure that everyone is safe. You&#8217;re throwing somebody into this environment where they’re going to be filmed 24/7, they want to make sure that your mental health is good and that you&#8217;re not a danger to yourself or to others. I think some of that is true, but after watching the stories from the documentary I participated in, and then also the Netflix docuseries, it started to make me question the purpose of the psych evaluations. You hear some of the girls say they told them certain things during their evaluations that were essentially used against them later, and caricatures were created.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I understand reality competition was still in its infancy. Having those evaluations at the time seemed to make sense because \u003Cem>Top Model\u003C/em> was one of the first reality shows of its kind. There was no playbook on how to do it necessarily. But hindsight is everything.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>You spoke about it being an unnatural environment. They also spoke about having strict rules in the house to basically keep things from being leaked. What were some of those rules? And were you paid to be on the show by the time the season you participated in aired?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, in cycles 12 and 14, I was not paid. Cycle 17, I was paid, we were all paid, but not what we should have been paid. Initially, we did receive a stipend, but that was for food, so we had to buy our own food. I pocketed most of that money and saved it until the end. You have to remember, we didn’t have jobs, we were on the show for however long. So I figured that once the show ended, I needed to walk away with some sort of money because I was broke. So if the stipend was $300, I’d spend $50 and pocket the rest.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the rules, we couldn&#8217;t have phones; that was the biggest thing. I get why we couldn’t have phones because nobody wants to watch a reality show where we&#8217;re talking on our phones and calling home the whole time. There was also something called an ice period, where if cameras were not around, we couldn’t talk. So we were silent because the idea is for everything to be captured on camera. Not being able to talk was difficult. There were ice periods during eliminations, which lasted hours while the judges were deliberating, and we couldn’t talk during those periods, which were torturous.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>By the time your cycle started, Tyra was involved but not as immersed in the shoots and in creating personal relationships necessarily with the contestants as she was in the beginning. What was your interaction like with her during the cycles that you participated in? Was it different cycle to cycle, or was it pretty much the same?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, it was pretty much the same. I wish I could have had more interaction with her because I watched the previous cycles, and she was much more invested in the girls during those cycles, so I expected the same. The cycles that I watched, she was more hands-on with the girls and more personable, but by the time my cycles rolled around, it was very much like just business, like she&#8217;s there for work. We don&#8217;t have any interaction with her off camera, and the only time that we would see her would be on camera. It was disappointing because growing up, she was always my personal favorite. So getting to be in her presence was exciting. But interaction was minimal.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>After being eliminated the first time around, you spoke about not being able to make a living as a model because the realities of the real world modeling versus the contained environment in ANTM was different. Talk to me a little bit about what your life was like. After the first elimination, were you able to land any work at all as a model, and what were you doing in between that time?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was so it was rough. It was very rough for me because of the edit that I got. I wasn&#8217;t marketable. Agencies thought that I was rough around the edges. Initially, it was just a feeling, but it was later confirmed by a friend of mine, Alex, who was on the same cycle as me because she’d take me with her to different castings, and she informed me that an agency rep told her that though they loved me, I was not marketable. As a model, it’s your job to sell a product. And they didn’t view me in that way. It was sad because there were several girls from my cycle who got signed to major agencies in New York and beyond and I was just stuck. It was a confusing time, because I knew I had the talent. I couldn&#8217;t figure out how to make a living as a model. And at the time, I didn’t want to go back to working a 9-5. I was embarrassed. It was like I was so close to my dreams but I couldn’t reach them.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>Did you ever try to go the urban model route? There were hip hop fashion labels and brands at the time, like Baby Phat, Rockawear, etc., or even video modeling?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I did try that route, for sure. But even with the video modeling world, I didn’t fit that aesthetic. I was not curvy. I was extremely thin and tall. I had the look and frame to walk on these runways, but because I was on the show, nobody wanted to work with me. As far as urban modeling, I didn’t fit that standard. So it’s like I didn’t fit in either world.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>You spoke about coming back and doing so with a vengeance. You wanted to correct your previous edit, and you wanted to win and really be able to make a living as a model. And obviously, initially, you won, but your title was stripped. Did you ever hear from Tyra or anyone else out within the production or the realm after they met you in New York to deliver the news?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their PR people did call me, maybe like a month later, to talk about re-filming the show, and that was like the only time that they reached out to me, was to see if I wanted to participate in re-filming. And I said no. I refused to be used in that way. It was unfair. Actually, Allison, who was in the final three in the cycle that I won, gave me a heads-up that they’d call me, so I knew in advance.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There was another time when I had done an episode of \u003Cem>MTV Made\u003C/em>, and I was a homecoming queen coach for a group of students out in Texas, and I was supposed to get permission from the network to do that. But after they had taken everything away from me, I did what I wanted. They ended up finding out that I filmed the episode of \u003Cem>Made\u003C/em>, and the attorney for the network called me and let me know that I ruffled their feathers. I didn’t care. I had to try and figure out my own path at that point. So no, after that meeting and them giving me the $300 in cash, that was it.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>Did you ever consider legal action? Was there a settlement?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I did sue. And it was such a long process. It took five years. It was exhausting. In the beginning, we were all full steam ahead. My team felt it was an open and closed case. They felt they’d pay me to keep quiet. But they fought me tooth and nail. And they had the resources to do so. My attorney called me and basically informed me that the arbitrator threw the case out and that I could re-file, but I was over it at that point. I didn’t want anything else to do with it. By that point, I was in a different place.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>There&#8217;s been a lot of conversation about who is to blame for the shenanigans on the show. Tyra&#8217;s at the center; she&#8217;s the EP. She&#8217;s admitted that she was in the editing bay for, if not all of the cycles, most of the cycles, especially in the beginning. But do you think that there is someone who is more at fault than the other, or is there enough blame to go around?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oh it’s not just Tyra. Ken Mock is to blame, too. Everybody is throwing Tyra to the fire, and I get why. But I think it&#8217;s unfair to just solely put the blame on her. Ken Mock called the shots. I was on the show several times. I&#8217;ve seen in filming where he has called the shots over her. So, I think that people need to hold him to the fire, maybe even more so than her, because he is the creator of the show as well, and because she is the face of the brand, and because she is the supermodel, and because she&#8217;s Tyra Banks, it&#8217;s easy to just point all fingers at her. Everyone played a role. The judges played a role. It was a collective experience.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>How have you been able to move forward from all of this?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It sounds cliché, but time does heal all wounds. Now, I am walking in my purpose now. Had they not stripped me of everything, I wouldn&#8217;t have my son, and I wouldn&#8217;t have a career as a journalist.

OWN’s newest franchise and first-ever \u003Cem>\u003Ca href=\"http://blavity.com/tags/belle-collective\">Belle Collective\u003C/a>\u003C/em> spin-off, now airing Fridays at 8 p.m. on OWN. The spinoff is led by \u003Cem>Love &amp; Marriage: Huntsville\u003C/em> alum \u003Ca href=\"http://blavity.com/tags/stormi-steele\">Stormi Steele\u003C/a>, the powerhouse behind the ever-growing Canvas Beauty brand, and she has some equally boss women in this collective.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amber Jones is Steele’s trusted CFO and self-described &#8220;business soulmate,” helping guide the financial strategy behind the rapidly expanding Canvas brand. With deep roots in Birmingham, Amber is known as a connector to the city’s most elite social and business circles. While Amber prides herself on being fiercely loyal to Stormi and the Canvas mission, her direct communication style and strong opinions can sometimes create friction within the group. With past tensions lingering between Amber and K’la, old wounds resurface as personal and professional lines begin to blur.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Funmi Ford is a Nigerian-American marketing strategist and fashion influencer known for her sharp business instincts, bold style and unapologetically outspoken personality. With a strong background in branding and marketing, Funmi thrives on helping businesses grow while cultivating her own rising influence in fashion and lifestyle. But balancing ambition with family life proves challenging as Funmi navigates tensions within her marriage, including disagreements about finances, priorities and emotional connection. Her candid nature and fearless honesty make her a dynamic presence within the group, though her willingness to speak her mind may ruffle feathers among the more reserved Belles.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ahead of the premiere, Blavity&#8217;s Shadow and Act spoke with Ford and Jones about what to expect from their debut season. And they say there’s a reason the franchise is now in Birmingham.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Chr>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>Were you all fans of the original \u003Cem>Belle Collective\u003C/em> and the Jackson franchise?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amber: For me, I&#8217;m not a TV watcher in general. So I went and I binge-watched it, and it was great to get to know the ladies when it comes to being business owners, entrepreneurs, just seeing how they navigate life. But just me in general, I&#8217;ve never been too much of a TV watcher, so it&#8217;s all new for me.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Funmi: It’s the same for me. I just never watched. I don&#8217;t watch a lot of reality TV. I did the same thing as Amber. I went and binge-watched the first season so I could kind of know what it was about, and I was like, ‘Oh, I really like these ladies. I like their stories.’\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>What would you ladies say differentiates the Mississippi belles and the Alabama belles?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amber: I think that we bring a lot of variety. There&#8217;s so many different types of stories, so many different types of personalities, so many different types of careers, so many different types of just background in general. So, I feel like for us, we bring such a mix of culture, a mix of careers, a mix of personal life when it comes to relationships that is very diverse. So I feel like that&#8217;s the biggest difference that I see with us in Jackson.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Funmi: And for me, in Jackson, they don&#8217;t have a Nigerian on their cast, and that is the biggest difference. But everything Amber said, just the diversity in stories is so important, and I think that&#8217;s what differentiates us.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>So obviously, you guys are very successful in your respective careers. Why did you decide to do reality TV at this time? Because it could be considered foreign and scary territory.\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Funmi: For me, I do it on a smaller scale. I&#8217;ve been a content creator for seven-plus years. I&#8217;ve been doing it pretty well and enjoying it. I&#8217;ve been giving people a little snippet of my life. I call it controlled vulnerability. This was just another step in what I already did. And the funny thing is, my husband&#8217;s actually the one that was like, ‘I think you should do it. This would be so great. You&#8217;re so personable, you have such a good personality, and it&#8217;s a good way to showcase your culture as well as what you do on a bigger platform.’ So he was my biggest motivator.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amber: I did it because I wanted to do something. I&#8217;m a very private person, for the people who know me, and when you&#8217;re living life, when we&#8217;re called to impact people and just help people see life in a different aspect, I felt like my life would be relatable to a lot of women, especially a lot of single women. So I did the show to open up my world to hopefully inspire women to walk their own path and make their decisions, and whatever time frame they wanna make their personal life or their career, they can do that.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>Amber, you work closely with Stormi in building her business. Were you nervous that merging an already existing friendship and working relationship could be tarnished from the potential drama of reality television?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amber: No, I wasn&#8217;t as worried. I try to keep personal separate from business, and so this reality TV is more of our personal life, even though the business is shown on there. But I&#8217;m the type of person where everything that happens happens. We went into business for a reason. I joined her company for a reason. I started my company for a reason. We&#8217;re friends for a reason, and it&#8217;s nothing. I don&#8217;t really worry about the future and things that could possibly happen. Every day, I just try to be the best person that I can be, be the best leader and boss that I can be, and be the best person I can be for my clients, so I wasn&#8217;t really worried about it.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>Funmi, you have lived your life on display, as you mentioned, in a more controlled and carefully curated way. How would you say that filming a reality show has been an extension of that? And what did it take for you to really bear all on reality television? Because it&#8217;s once, once you&#8217;re out there, it&#8217;s out there, and for public consumption.\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Funmi: So for me, it was an easier transition because I have been doing lifestyle content creation for a little bit, so just kind of shifting gears into television, it&#8217;s a little bit more invasive. You have a lot more bodies inside of your home. You have to dig a little bit deeper and be a little bit more comfortable with the uncomfortability of it. But I tried to focus on the end goal. I wanna be able to have people see themselves in me, Nigerians, Nigerian-Americans, wives, mothers, and people who juggle more than one thing. So, for them to be able to see themselves in me and feel comfortable in seeing themselves in me, knowing that was my end goal, made it easier to be a lot more vulnerable.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As far as potential criticism from viewers, for me, it&#8217;s about understanding that it cannot be controlled. Just like you can do a video, you think you&#8217;re saying it one way, and then it gets out, and people have different types of meaning to one video or to one thing that you did. So when you understand that you cannot really control it, that makes it easier for you to let go.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So with reality TV, I always told the girls that we don&#8217;t really know how we&#8217;re gonna come off until the audience gets a hold of us and create their own narrative for us, and that you cannot control that. So, it’s about being okay with not being able to control the narrative and just being your authentic self and knowing that you stood in who you are. It makes it easier to accept whatever they say. I literally just saw a blog, and they were calling my husband bald, and I took a screenshot of it and I sent it to my husband and we laughed about it for like two minutes because at the end of the day, like what can you do? You&#8217;re not gonna go fight these people, you don&#8217;t know who they are. So just being okay with anybody making a narrative about you and knowing your truth is what&#8217;s gonna sustain us this season and in the other seasons to come.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>There&#8217;s a lot of reality shows that center on life in the South. What makes the South so special that it’s constantly documented on reality television?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amber: I say Southern hospitality. There&#8217;s nothing like a woman that was raised or has been in the South for a long time. I feel like we just have a different type of hospitality about us. I feel like we are a good mix. I always say I&#8217;m a small-town country girl with big-city dreams, and even though I was raised up on a farm, I&#8217;ve experienced cities. Us in Birmingham, we have a great mix of what it likes to have different cultural experiences, all while mixing with the city. I always say Birmingham is not too fast and it&#8217;s not too slow. It&#8217;s just the perfect place to be and the perfect place to live.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Funmi: Yeah, I definitely agree with that. Also, the narrative around the South is so outdated. When you go places, I travel a lot, I go up north, I do Fashion Week, and then I go back home. And the narrative around Alabama, like the questions I get asked about Alabama is so crazy. I&#8217;m just like, ‘Have y&#8217;all ever been down South?’ There’s so many misconceptions. We wear shoes, we wear high heels, it&#8217;s not some podunk backwoods part of the world. It&#8217;s very developed, it has amazing school systems, amazing homes, all these beautiful things. And so I think for Carlos [King] to want to highlight that is so important because Birmingham is really progressive. And I really hope people get to see that when they see the show.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>What are you hoping that viewers see from your specific individual storylines?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Funmi: I think for me, it&#8217;s that you can do it all. And I&#8217;m not saying do it all perfectly. I think when people think to do it all, they think perfection. You can do it all. You can be a mom, you can be a great wife, you can be an entrepreneur, you can be bold and stand your truth and still have your mental sanity at the end of it. So, I think you can do it all at a great level. We&#8217;re not saying perfect, but you can have it all.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amber: For me, it&#8217;s about walking to the beat of your own drum, and dealing with whatever life throws at you. And what’s for you is for you. You don&#8217;t compare yourself to anyone, and you understand that the path that God has for you is for you, and your timeline is your timeline and you&#8217;re not moving too slow and you&#8217;re not moving too fast. It’s about knowing that things happen for a reason and it&#8217;s a very specific reason. Don’t feel pressured to make certain decisions. You do what&#8217;s best for you and not anyone else.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>And lastly, can you guys tease any surprising drama that we will see that even surprised you guys?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Funmi: I&#8217;m just the only thing I&#8217;m gonna say is it&#8217;s the mop of the mop, the mop.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amber: I never knew a mop could be such a star.\u003C/p>\n",[550,551],{"id":26,"name":27,"slug":28,"description":17,"image":29},{"id":80,"name":81,"slug":82,"description":17,"image":29},[553],{"id":484,"name":485,"slug":485,"description":17,"image":17},{"url":555,"thumbnail":556,"credit":557,"title":558,"alt":17,"type":41,"width":220,"height":221,"mimeType":44},"https://cms.blavity.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,slow-connection-quality=30,onerror=redirect/https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/design-8.jpg","https://cms.blavity.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,slow-connection-quality=30,onerror=redirect/https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/design-8-150x84.jpg","Photo: OWN","design (8)","2026-04-28T22:44:32-04:00","2026-04-29 02:44:32","2026-04-28T22:53:09-04:00","2026-04-29 02:53:09",[],7,{"disableConnatixPlayer":51},{"disableAd":51,"disableConnatixPlayer":51,"enabledComments":51,"headScript":17},{"reviewer_name":17},{"id":569,"author":570,"authors":571,"title":573,"subTitle":17,"excerpt":17,"slug":574,"body":575,"categories":576,"tags":579,"featuredMedia":589,"publishedAt":593,"publishedAtGMT":594,"updatedAt":595,"updatedAtGMT":596,"type":49,"listicle":597,"disableContentGate":51,"disableListicleNumbers":51,"canonicalUrl":17,"socialThumbnail":17,"readingTime":598,"customFields":599,"additional":600,"acf":601},72910000,{"id":9,"avatar":10,"firstName":11,"lastName":12,"displayName":13,"email":14,"username":15,"normalizedUsername":15,"description":16,"htmlBio":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":18},[572],{"id":9,"avatar":10,"firstName":11,"lastName":12,"displayName":13,"email":14,"username":15,"normalizedUsername":15,"description":16,"htmlBio":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":18},"Chelley Bissainthe Of 'Love Island USA' Fame Teases New Show: 'I'm A Lover Girl Through And Through'","chelley-bissainthe-love-island-usa-fame-teases-new-show-details","\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/entertainment/love-island-usas-ace-chelley-shocking-exit\">Chelley Bissainthe\u003C/a> is stepping into a new role.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On March 26 at Uproxx’s NewFront, she announced\u003Cem> Love, Songs\u003C/em>, an interview series she hosts and executive produces.

While she first gained widespread attention through high-profile relationships, Tran has since carved out her own lane in Hollywood, earning critical acclaim for her performances and building a steady financial foundation.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Best known for her roles in \u003Cem>The Bay\u003C/em> and TNT’s \u003Cem>Claws\u003C/em>, Tran has proven she can hold her own on screen. Her journey, however, didn’t begin in entertainment. Before acting, she worked as a personal shopper at Nordstrom. While she enjoyed this role, Tran previously shared with \u003Ca href=\"https://www.nylon.com/articles/karrueche-tran-claws-interview?utm_source=chatgpt.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Nylon\u003C/a>, “I wanted to be a ton of other things even before I became a personal shopper.” She later transitioned into freelance styling, slowly building connections in Los Angeles’ fashion scene. Those early experiences helped her develop the eye for branding and presentation that would later shape her business ventures and \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/entertainment/yung-miami-net-worth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">net worth\u003C/a>.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-who-has-karrueche-tran-dated\">Who has Karrueche Tran dated?\u003C/h2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Karrueche Tran’s dating history has often been a topic of public conversation, particularly her highly publicized relationship with Chris Brown. The two dated on and off between 2011 and 2015, with their relationship frequently making headlines. The breakup ultimately led to legal action, with Tran being granted a five-year restraining order in 2017 after alleging abuse, \u003Ca href=\"https://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-39048946\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BBC\u003C/a> reports. This experience seemed to mark a turning point in how she approached relationships and public life. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After that chapter, Tran was briefly linked to rapper Quavo in 2017 before entering a more long-term relationship with former NFL player Victor Cruz. The couple dated for several years, often appearing together at public events before calling it quits in 2021. An insider told \u003Ca href=\"https://www.eonline.com/news/1234974/victor-cruz-and-karrueche-tran-break-up-after-3-years-together\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">E!

The two were first linked when Tran appeared supporting Sanders during his recovery from bladder cancer surgery in a July 2025 YouTube vlog, a moment that shocked many fans and prompted many to highlight their age gap. Sanders is 58, while Tran is 37. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rather than leaning into the negative remarks, the relationship has appeared grounded in mutual support. Tran has made it clear that her approach to dating has evolved, explaining, “If I wasn’t having fun, I wouldn’t be in it,” in an interview with the \u003Ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiqRm9LlEIc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u003Cem>What&#8217;s Next\u003C/em>\u003C/a> podcast.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sanders, for his part, has publicly praised Tran, noting her presence during a challenging period in his life. In a February 2026 interview with \u003Ca href=\"https://people.com/deion-sanders-on-what-he-loves-most-about-girlfriend-karrueche-tran-exclusive-11901417\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">People\u003C/a>, the NFL veteran explained, &#8220;She held me down. She kept me upright. She kept me straight. Kept me positive. I&#8217;m already positive. But she did the doggone thing.&#8221; The couple has since been seen traveling together and sharing moments on social media, signaling a relationship that continues to grow.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-karrueche-tran-s-net-worth\">What is Karrueche Tran&#8217;s net worth?\u003C/h2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, Tran’s \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/entertainment/marsai-martin-net-worth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">net worth\u003C/a> reflects a mix of acting income, brand partnerships and entrepreneurial projects and is estimated to be $2 million as of 2026, \u003Ca href=\"https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-celebrities/models/karrueche-tran-net-worth/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Celebrity Net Worth\u003C/a> reports. While that figure may seem modest compared to some of her peers, it reflects a steady, diversified career spanning multiple industries. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Acting appears to be her primary source of income. Tran gained mainstream recognition for her role as Virginia Loc on \u003Cem>Claws\u003C/em>, a character that required both physical preparation and emotional depth. Speaking about the role, she told \u003Ca href=\"https://www.glamour.com/story/karrueche-tran-got-in-the-best-shape-of-her-life-for-claws\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Glamour\u003C/a>, “Virginia has the least amount of clothes… I gotta keep myself together!”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her work on \u003Cem>The Bay\u003C/em> marked a major milestone. In 2021, Tran won a \u003Ca href=\"https://www.popsugar.com/entertainment/karrueche-tran-win-2021-daytime-emmys-48424191\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Daytime Emmy Award\u003C/a> for Outstanding Lead Actress, becoming the first person of Asian Pacific American descent to win in that category, according to \u003Ca href=\"https://www.popsugar.com/entertainment/karrueche-tran-win-2021-daytime-emmys-48424191\">PopSugar\u003C/a>. The achievement significantly boosted her credibility in the industry and opened the door to more opportunities. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond television, Tran has built income streams through fashion and beauty. In 2018, she collaborated with ColourPop Cosmetics on a makeup collection and has been involved in various fashion ventures, including launching her own clothing line, The Kill, in 2013. While it doesn&#8217;t appear that she&#8217;s operating the collection anymore, these projects allowed her to leverage her personal style into business opportunities. Tran has also capitalized on her strong social media presence, partnering with brands for sponsored content and endorsements, including Coach, Nike and Courvoisier. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-frequently-asked-questions\">Frequently Asked Questions\u003C/h2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-what-ethnicity-is-karrueche-tran\">\u003Cstrong>What ethnicity is Karrueche Tran?\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-what-ethnicity-is-karrueche-tran-karrueche-tran-is-biracial-she-has-a-vietnamese-mother-and-a-black-american-father-and-she-has-spoken-about-embracing-both-sides-of-her-identity-throughout-her-career-according-to-wikipedia\">Karrueche Tran is biracial.

And one thing that I will say is real estate is a perfect way to build generational wealth,&#8221; JaQuita Montgomery-Martin told Blavity&#8217;s Shadow and Act during a chat before the Season 1 premiere. JaQuita, the younger sister of Jermeshia and Nicole&#8217;s cousin, is trained as a pharmacist but now works for the Braden Real Estate Group.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;That&#8217;s what our grandparents have instilled in us and showed us how to do and to continue. We definitely want to make sure that we&#8217;re creating a lasting impact on our future generations to come,&#8221; she added. &#8220;And the main way that we&#8217;re doing it is through real estate. So we&#8217;re trying to get as many people on board informing the community about real estate, because that is the easiest and best way to build generational wealth.&#8221;\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you look at any social media platform, your algorithm likely includes new homes. Texas remains an ideal state to live in for most people due to the quality of life at an affordable cost. Nicole Braden Handy, the face of the Braden Real Estate Group, said there&#8217;s a reason everything&#8217;s bigger in Texas.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;We have an array of homes, and you get a lot of bang for your buck, and a home here when you look at the size of the home for the price compared to most other cities, it&#8217;s more here,&#8221; Handy explained.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Houston is one of those cities that allow you to start to bring in opportunities to look for ways to build that generational wealth through legacy. We have so many clients that started out here just with purchasing their primary residence, and now they&#8217;re purchasing investment properties.&#8221;\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If wealth and family drama aren&#8217;t enough to keep you tuned in to&nbsp;\u003Cem>Family Empire: Houston\u003C/em>, the family&#8217;s matriarch is the icing on the cake. Their beloved grandmother, Oscarene Braden, emerges as the show&#8217;s star. She passed down her knowledge to the ladies, even paying for their real estate education. Jermeshia Goudeau said having their grandmother&#8217;s involvement in the series is the best part of the experience and solidifies the foundation of family love and unity.&nbsp;\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;We were surprised [that our grandmother agreed to participate]. In the pitching meetings, producers asked if we thought our grandmother would want to be part of it. And we were scared to ask,&#8221; Goudeau said. As Nicole&#8217;s right hand and co-founder, broker Jermeshia balances the weight of the family business with the complexities of her personal life. But she smiles while doing it all.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;She has been a superstar,&#8221; she gushed about her grandmother. &#8220;She has taken it with so much grace and she&#8217;s been so open. Granny does not understand reality TV. So with that comes a sense of authenticity of her presence and just being a part of this process. She&#8217;s just sharing her story with cameras, and it has been so healing for me. It&#8217;s been a great experience. Even if the show ends up like some of the most dramatic shows on the network, I was able to film this show, and it is recorded in history with my grandmother.&#8221;\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cem>Family Empire: Houston airs every Friday on OWN.\u003C/em>\u003C/p>\n",[853,854,855],{"id":769,"name":770,"slug":771,"description":17,"image":29},{"id":26,"name":27,"slug":28,"description":17,"image":29},{"id":80,"name":81,"slug":82,"description":17,"image":29},[857],{"id":484,"name":485,"slug":485,"description":17,"image":17},{"url":859,"thumbnail":860,"credit":557,"title":861,"alt":17,"type":41,"width":834,"height":835,"mimeType":44},"https://cms.blavity.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,slow-connection-quality=30,onerror=redirect/https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Image-2024-07-15T131958.311.jpg","https://cms.blavity.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,slow-connection-quality=30,onerror=redirect/https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Image-2024-07-15T131958.311-150x84.jpg","Image – 2024-07-15T131958.311","2024-07-15T13:26:27-04:00","2024-07-15 17:26:27","2024-07-15T13:28:42-04:00","2024-07-15 17:28:42",[],{"disableConnatixPlayer":51},{"disableAd":51,"disableConnatixPlayer":51,"enabledComments":51,"headScript":17},{"reviewer_name":17},{"id":871,"author":872,"authors":873,"title":875,"subTitle":17,"excerpt":17,"slug":876,"body":877,"categories":878,"tags":882,"featuredMedia":888,"publishedAt":895,"publishedAtGMT":896,"updatedAt":897,"updatedAtGMT":898,"type":49,"listicle":899,"disableContentGate":51,"disableListicleNumbers":51,"canonicalUrl":17,"socialThumbnail":17,"readingTime":52,"customFields":900,"additional":901,"acf":902},72766113,{"id":505,"avatar":506,"firstName":507,"lastName":508,"displayName":509,"email":510,"username":511,"normalizedUsername":512,"description":17,"htmlBio":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":513,"registeredAt":514},[874],{"id":505,"avatar":506,"firstName":507,"lastName":508,"displayName":509,"email":510,"username":511,"normalizedUsername":512,"description":17,"htmlBio":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":513,"registeredAt":514},"Phaedra Parks Eyed To Possibly Return To 'RHOA' Amid Kenya Moore Exit; Cynthia Bailey's Role In Season May Expand","phaedra-parks-possible-rhoa-season-16-return-cynthia-bailey","\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cem>\u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/entertainment/rhoa-season-16-cast-announced\">The Real Housewives of Atlanta\u003C/a>\u003C/em> producers may be adding a former peach to Season 16 after the unexpected exit of \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/entertainment/rhoa-what-claudia-jordan-says-about-kenya-moores-exit\">Kenya Moore\u003C/a>.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After a lengthy production hiatus and a major cast shakeup, production went underway this Spring.
