Hate it or love it, the underdog’s on top. 50 Cent celebrated receiving three Emmy nominations on Wednesday (July 8) for his work producing his Diddy documentary, Sean Combs: The Reckoning, for Netflix.

“Everybody had something to say when I announced it… now the Emmys got something to say too,” 50 boasted in a post on Instagram shortly after the nods were revealed. “3 Emmy nominations for Sean Combs: The Reckoning. You can’t argue with the work.”

The docuseries picked up nominations for outstanding documentary or nonfiction series, outstanding directing for a documentary/nonfiction program and outstanding picture editing for a nonfiction program.

The G-Unit boss received plenty of love in his comments from the likes of Busta Rhymes. “Congrats & Happy Belated Born Day King,” Busta wrote.

When 50 originally announced plans for a Diddy docuseries in 2024, many thought he was up to his typical trolling ways, but that was far from the case. The Reckoning arrived in December 2025 and immediately stirred conversation surrounding Diddy. The docuseries was broken down into four parts, detailing the rise and fall of the disgraced Bad Boy mogul, as well as a deep-dive into the history of Combs’ alleged sexual abuse tied to his federal sex trafficking case.

“I’ve been committed to real storytelling for years through G-Unit Film and Television,” 50 said in a statement when the docuseries was released. “I’m grateful to everyone who came forward and trusted us with their stories, and proud to have Alexandria Stapleton as the director on the project to bring this important story to the screen.”

Diddy was sentenced to 50 months behind bars in October 2025 for violating federal prostitution laws, but dodged much more serious charges of sex trafficking and racketeering.

Next up for 50’s film and TV empire, he’s in promo mode for Fightland. The boxing crime drama is set to premiere on Starz on July 31, and the Queens legend is promising he’s got another Power on his hands.

After a five-year hiatus, Conor McGregor returns to the octagon, as the Ultimate Fighting Championship heads to “Sin City” for UFC 329. Two top fighters face off against each other in a welterweight rematch main event, with Irish fighter Conor McGregor (22-6-0) taking on American Max Holloway (27-9-0) on Saturday (July 11).

UFC 329: McGregor vs. Holloway takes place at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, with a start time of 5 p.m. ET/2 p.m. PT. The main card begins at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT, with the main event starting around 11:59 p.m. ET/8:59 p.m. PT.

The biggest draw of the event is the return of Conor McGregor, who’s now 37 years old, to the UFC after five years away. McGregor’s last match was in July 2021, which was a TKO loss to Dustin Poirier, so the Irish fighter is looking to show the world that he can compete at a world-class level again. McGregor’s last win in the octagon came during UFC 246 back in January 2020.

However, after their first match in August 2013, Holloway is looking for a little payback after losing to McGregor in an unanimous decision during UFC Fight Night 26 nearly 13 years ago.

What Is McGregor’s and Holloway’s Walkout Music for UFC 329?

Although the UFC has yet to announce each fighter’s walkout songs for UFC 329, both usually go out to the octagon to the same songs during their matches. McGregor has walked out to a remix mashup of “The Foggy Dew” by Sinéad O’Connor and “Hypnotize” by The Notorious B.I.G., while Max Holloway prefers to walk out to “Hawaiian Kickboxer” by Moke Boy.

We don’t know all the details of what went down inside Madison Square Garden during Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce‘s July 3 wedding last week, but now we know how much they had to pay so they could host the event in the thick of New York City.

During a press conference on Friday (July 10), NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani was asked by a reporter whether Swift would be paying back the city for police overtime needed to support her wedding weekend events in Midtown Manhattan, and the politician confirmed that she already has.

“Taylor Swift … has paid already the cost of the permit that was lodged, which was over $160,000 for that event and for the response to that event,” Mamdani told reporters. “That was a permit that was finalized, I think, in just the days before the event itself.”

The security permit included street closures and traffic management around the famed arena, starting with a rehearsal dinner event on July 2 through the wedding itself on July 3.

Most details have been kept under wraps, but in a press release announcing Swift and Kelce’s marriage, Swift’s rep confirmed that the pop superstar and football player wore outfits designed by Christian Dior Haute Couture; that the couple did not have traditional bridesmaids or groomsmen, but Swift’s brother Austin was her man of honor while Jason Kelce was Travis’ best man; and that actor/comedian Adam Sandler officiated the nuptials.

Two performers at the event have been reported as well, with Good Morning America co-host Robin Roberts confirming that Stevie Nicks took the stage, and People sharing that Paul McCartney performed The Beatles’ “I Want to Hold Your Hand” for the first time since 1963 at the MSG wedding.

Country star John Rich has been officially sworn in as Special Envoy for American Landowners, according to a White House social media post Friday (July 10).

The post shows the Big & Rich member being sworn in surrounded by his family and shaking hands with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

Earlier Friday, Rich also posted heralding the ceremony: “Today, I’ll be sworn in as ‘Special Envoy for American Landowners’ by President Trump at the Oval. My family will be there with me! (My Dad bought his first new suit in 25 years). I greatly thank @realDonaldTrump for giving me the opportunity to fight for my fellow Americans.”

Rich also quote-tweeted the White House post, adding alongside an American-flag emojio: “Let’s get to work.”

Though the swearing-in did not take place until Friday, Brooke Rollins, secretary of the United States Department of Agriculture, announced Rich’s appointment last month. 

 “America’s farmers, ranchers, and landowners are among the greatest stewards of our nation’s resources and the backbone of our rural communities,”said Rollins, in a statement posted on the USDA site on June 10. “President Trump understands that private property rights are fundamental to the American way of life. John Rich has long been a champion for rural America, and I look forward to working alongside him as we continue fighting for the people who feed, fuel, and clothe our nation.”

In his role, according to the USDA, Rich will engage with and advocate for farmers, ranchers and private landowners and “engage directly with landowners across the country and work to address challenges posed by government overreach, activist pressure campaigns, and outside interests that threaten private property rights and the long-term viability of rural communities.”

Those threats, according to the release, include “pressure related to large-scale solar and wind development that may impact productive farmland, ranchland, and rural livelihoods.”

Rich, an ardent Trump supporter, has turned to song in the past to express his feelings about perceived government overreach including in “The Devil & The TVA,” a song he released last September. The tune criticizes the Tennessee Valley Authority, a federally owned public utility established by President Franklin Roosevelt in 1933. Rich fought against the TVA’s plan to build a methane gas facility in Tennessee’s Cheatham County that would impact local farmland.

“President Trump has afforded me the great honor of serving as Special Envoy for American Landowners,” said Rich, in a statement. “I look forward to representing and advocating for landowners’ rights and standing up for the farmers, ranchers, and rural families who work every day to provide for our country. Protecting private property rights and ensuring that landowners are not harassed, intimidated, or pressured by outside interests will be at the heart of this mission.”
