It was later postponed to the the summer of this year; however, Halsey has opted to cancel the Manic tour altogether and issue refunds to ticket-buyers.  Said Halsey in a statement:  “Despite our absolute best efforts, there is no guarantee I’ll be able to tour the currently scheduled dates. I miss seeing all of you in the crowd every night more than anything, but I need to prioritize your health and safety. That being said, the Manic tour is now officially canceled. As much as we wanted to hold out hope that this tour could eventually happen, our priority is now getting your ticket money back to you immediately.”

Actress Christina Ricci Granted Domestic Violence Restraining Order Against Estranged Husband

Actress Christina Ricci has been granted a restraining order against her estranged husband, James Heerdegen, whom she is accusing of domestic abuse. Ricci filed for the restraining order claiming multiple incidents had led to her fearing for her life and that of her son.  The domestic violence restraining order requires Heerdegen to remain 100 yards away from her and their son, and to have no contact with them.

Ricci alleges that she became “trapped” in her house with Heerdegen due to the Covid-19 pandemic after telling him she wanted a divorce. She claims he attacked her twice in June last year and left her with physical injuries, and alleges that one of the attacks took place in front of their six-year-old son. People reports that Ricci filed to the court several photos of injuries she claimed to have suffered from Heerdegen.

Heerdegen’s lawyer Larry Bakman said that he plans to file his own restraining order over allegations of “her abusive conduct fuelled by alcohol and substance abuse”.   Bakman also said his client “unequivocally denies all allegations of abuse made by [Ricci] as having occurred in 2020.”

However, back in October, he posted a photo to social media of his leg resting while in a brace. 

Drake had previously announced his sixth studio album in April 2020 while dropping his 14-track mixtape, Dark Lane Demo Tapes. At the time, he said that Certified Lover Boy was set to be released that summer. And in October 2020, Drake released a teaser for his upcoming album with the caption “January 2021” as the release date.

Alec Baldwin ‘taking a break’ from Twitter after controversy over wife Hilaria Baldwin’s heritage

tmpad8c863c-ab59-473d-a3bb-7af611b6d946-jpg

Alec Baldwin announced that he is taking a break from Twitter after the scandal surrounding his wife, Hilaria Baldwin. Baldwin tweeted “Twitter is like a party where everybody is screaming. Not much of a party. Goodbye for now.”

Alec’s announcement comes nearly one month after Hilaria, 37, was forced to deny accusations that she has been lying about her Spanish heritage and faking her accent for years. Hilaria had vowed to “sign off [Instagram] for a long time” in the wake of the controversy, but returned just three hours later. She then sat down for an interview with The New York Times, in which she shut down cultural appropriation allegations.

Alec released an eight-and-a-half-minute Instagram video on December 27, telling his 2 million followers that people were being “ridiculous” for calling out his wife of eight years. “We live in a world now where we’re hidden behind the anonymity of social media,” he said. “People feel that they can say anything.”
