Cardi B didn't hold back in response to Offset's accusations of her cheating while pregnant.

On Wednesday, September 25, the estranged couple had a fiery exchange on Instagram and X (formerly Twitter).

During an Instagram Live session, Cardi (whose real name is Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar) fired back at Offset (real name Kiari Kendrell Cephus), who claimed she was unfaithful while expecting their child.

“You f--ked with a baby inside, tell the truth!!" he commented, according to Hollywood Unlocked and E!.

In response, Cardi tweeted on X, "AND DID !!!!!!," leading fans to speculate that she was confirming Offset's allegations.

On X, the "WAP" artist remarked, “A hurt man will do the unthinkable.”

During her Instagram Live, the "Bodak Yellow" singer expressed gratitude for their three children but admitted she ultimately "regrets" her ex. 

"But f--- you, I regret you," Cardi declared. "I've always been too good for you."

She continued, “Since you want to threaten me, saying you’ll take my stuff because I’m moving on—just move on! Why can’t you do that?”

Cardi also hinted that their legal issues could be tough. “It’s no fun when Mama’s got the gun, right?” she asked. “Now we’re heading into a court battle, huh?”

Representatives for Cardi and Offset have not yet responded to PEOPLE's requests for comment.

Cardi B and Offset, who share a daughter named Kulture Kiari Cephus, a son named Wave Set Cephus, and welcomed a baby girl in September 2024, have experienced a tumultuous relationship over the years.

Rumors of their romance began in February 2017 when they attended Super Bowl LI together. By October of that year, Offset proposed to Cardi during Power 99's Powerhouse concert in Philadelphia, although it later came to light that they had secretly married on September 20, 2017.

The couple's relationship has seen its share of ups and downs, with Cardi filing for divorce twice—first in September 2020 and again in July 2024. Shortly after the second filing, Cardi announced on Instagram that she was expecting their third child, who arrived just a month later.

Dallas Cowboys vs. New Orleans Saints: How to Watch, Stream, and Key Things to Watch in Week 2

 

New Orleans Saints vs. Dallas Cowboys

Here’s a rewritten version:

Matchup    : New Orleans Saints (1-0) vs. Dallas Cowboys (1-0)

Date & Time : Sunday, September 15 | 12:00 p.m. CT

Location  :  AT&T Stadium | Arlington, Texas

How to Watch:

 

In Dallas :    Catch the game on FOX 4 or stream it on the FOX Sports App.  

Outside the DFW area   : Stream the game on the NFL App.

1. Cowboys Offense

Here’s a revised version:

Thanks to a dominant showing by the Cowboys' defense and special teams, the offense was able to take a more relaxed approach in their Week 1 win over the Cleveland Browns.

Quarterback Dak Prescott acknowledged that the offense "left a lot of meat on the bone" in that game.

Ezekiel Elliott flashed some spark, recording 10 carries for 40 yards and a touchdown.

However, the Cowboys' passing and running game will likely face greater scrutiny this Sunday.

2. Containing Kamara

The Dallas defense has struggled to stop the run in recent seasons, but a revamped linebacker corps stood out in Mike Zimmer's scheme against Cleveland. The Cowboys held the Browns' running backs to just 54 rushing yards.

In Week 1, the Saints dominated the Panthers on the ground. Running backs Alvin Kamara and Jamaal Williams combined for 121 yards and two touchdowns.

Dallas knows that containing Kamara is crucial to slowing down the Saints' offense.

"It’s going to be a great challenge. He’s still one of the best backs in the league," said Micah Parsons. "He’s had some injuries the last couple of years, but everyone deals with that. From what we’ve seen, he looks healthy, and I’m excited for the challenge. This will be my first time facing him."

3. Can Cowboys rookies continue to shine?

The Dallas Cowboys' rookie starters impressed in their debut against the Browns.

Center Cooper Beebe didn’t give up a single pressure against Cleveland’s tough defense, while tackle Tyler Guyton held his own against elite pass rusher Myles Garrett. 

On the defensive side, the Browns targeted Cowboys cornerback Caelen Carson nine times, but the fifth-round pick allowed only two catches and broke up two passes in his first game.

All three rookies will need to show they can deliver in high-pressure situations going forward.

4. Brandon Aubrey - Future record holder?

Cowboys fans were frustrated when Mike McCarthy chose not to let kicker Brandon Aubrey attempt a 71-yard field goal after his successful 66-yarder was negated by a delay of game penalty.

Aubrey himself believes he can hit from 70 yards, and with the roof expected to be closed at AT&T Stadium, the conditions couldn't be more ideal for a shot at breaking the NFL record of 66 yards.

Whether or not he's aiming for a record, Aubrey's combination of leg strength and accuracy has become a major asset for the Cowboys.

Commanders Dismiss VP Over Remarks on Players, Jerry Jones, and Roger Goodell.

ASHBURN, Va.  --  The Washington Commanders have dismissed an employee following the release of a video in which he made controversial remarks about the team's players, accused Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones of racism, and referred to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell as a "$50 million puppet."

Rael Enteen, who served as Washington’s vice president of content for the past four years, also criticized the team’s fans, calling them "mouth breathers."

A team spokesperson confirmed Enteen's dismissal on Thursday but provided no further comment.

Enteen had been suspended on Wednesday after the video, posted by the O'Keefe Media Group, circulated on social media. The video revealed that Enteen had met a woman via the dating app Hinge, who turned out to be an undercover member of the media group. The pair reportedly met twice in June at restaurants in Washington, D.C.

In a statement released Wednesday, the team announced it was investigating the situation. Less than 24 hours later, Enteen was terminated.

"The language used in the video does not align with the values of the Commanders organization," a spokesperson for the team said in an initial statement.

In the video, Enteen is seen telling an undercover reporter, "Over 50% of our roster is white and religious, and they believe God says, 'F--- the gays.' That's their interpretation, not mine. Another significant portion of the team consists of low-income African Americans who come from communities that are often very homophobic."

Enteen also commented on the NFL leadership, saying, "I don’t think the commissioner hates gay or Black people. But Jerry Jones, who essentially runs the NFL, I believe, does."

Regarding the NFL's social justice efforts, Enteen described them as "performative," adding, "It’s not out of the goodness of their heart. It’s because George Floyd changed the game. ... The NFL, like any corporation, prioritizes the bottom line above all else." 

In the video, Enteen commented that the league’s significant revenue allows it to "faux-prioritize DEI" (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) primarily for the sake of positive PR.

He went on to describe the fanbase, saying that many are "high-school-educated alcoholics" and referred to them as "mouth breathers."

Regarding the players, Enteen remarked that some are "dumb as hell" while others, who start out smart, "don’t stay that way after getting hit in the head too many times." He suggested that players who "get their heads knocked around" are more prone to believing in conspiracy theories.

In conversation with an unidentified reporter—heard but not seen on the video—Enteen explained that his role was essentially to sell hope. Referring to a past incident at the former FedEx Stadium where fans reported a sewage smell from leaking pipes, Enteen said he downplayed the situation on social media by claiming it was just water, adding, "That is state-run media."

Eagles Trade for WR Jahan Dotson from Commanders

 

PHILADELPHIA   The Washington Commanders traded former first-round pick Jahan Dotson, along with a 2025 fifth-round pick, to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a 2025 third-round pick and two seventh-round picks.

With the acquisition of Dotson, the Eagles have bolstered their receiving corps, securing a strong No. 3 option to complement star wideouts A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, both of whom signed long-term extensions this offseason.

Dotson's arrival adds another dynamic weapon to quarterback Jalen Hurts' arsenal, which already includes running back Saquon Barkley and tight end Dallas Goedert.

The WR3 spot in Philadelphia saw plenty of competition this summer, with veterans Parris Campbell and Britain Covey, along with rookie Johnny Wilson, all getting first-team reps.

Last season, 24-year-old Dotson recorded 49 catches for 518 yards and four touchdowns with the Commanders.

Washington selected Dotson with the 16th overall pick in 2022 after trading back five spots. However, over two seasons, Dotson didn’t quite evolve into the key receiver Washington hoped for, finishing his stint with 84 receptions, 1,041 yards, and 11 touchdowns in 29 career games.  

Dotson struggled to secure the No. 2 receiver role alongside Terry McLaurin this summer. Though he was used in various positions, he was considered most effective in the slot. Coaches had previously noted that Dotson needed to improve his play strength for greater consistency. Last season, he had a drop rate of 7.4%, ranking 10th in the NFL.

Dotson’s performance this summer has yet to impress. Just last week, coach Dan Quinn mentioned that the team was still evaluating who would fill that role. They drafted Luke McCaffrey in the third round for a similar position, and McCaffrey had a strong showing against the Miami Dolphins on Saturday, recording two catches for 30 yards, along with solid blocking and special teams contributions.

The Commanders also have veteran slot receivers Olamide Zaccheaus and Jamison Crowder. Additionally, they signed veterans Byron Pringle and Martavis Bryant after camp began. Pringle brings more size to the table and could also serve as a kick returner if he makes the roster.

Shiveluch Volcano Erupts in Russia Following Powerful Magnitude 7.0 Earthquake

 

A volcano near a major naval base on Russia's eastern coast erupted early Sunday following a powerful magnitude-7.0 earthquake in the Pacific, approximately 63 miles away, according to Russian state-run media.

The Shiveluch volcano sent a towering ash plume 5 miles above sea level and unleashed a flow of lava, TASS reported Sunday morning, citing scientists from the Institute of Volcanology and Seismology of the Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Located about 280 miles from Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, a coastal city with over 181,000 residents in Russia's Kamchatka region, the volcano is part of a landscape dotted with volcanic activity and is situated near a key Russian submarine base across the bay.

According to the U.S. Geological Survey, the earthquake struck 18 miles beneath the Pacific Ocean, with its epicenter located around 63 miles east of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries from the quake.

This photo, released by the Institute of Volcanology and Seismology of the Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences on Sunday, August 18, 2024, captures the eruption of the Shiveluch volcano. The eruption was reportedly triggered by a 7.0-magnitude earthquake located approximately 102 kilometers (63 miles) east of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky on Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula.

The earthquake triggered a tsunami warning, which was later lifted.

Initially, the U.S. National Weather Service's Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Honolulu cautioned that hazardous tsunami waves could affect coastlines within 300 miles (480 kilometers) of the earthquake's epicenter. However, the center later announced that the threat had passed.

They also noted that minor sea level fluctuations might still occur in some coastal areas near the earthquake site for several hours.

Several Individuals Charged in Connection with Actor Matthew Perry's Overdose Death.

 

Several people have been charged in connection with the accidental overdose death of actor Matthew Perry, law enforcement sources informed NBC News on Thursday.

Perry, 54, was discovered face down in the heated section of his pool at his Pacific Palisades residence on October 28, 2023. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s Office determined that his death resulted from the acute effects of ketamine, a powerful anesthetic with psychedelic properties.

Sources reported that at least one person was arrested in Southern California early Thursday. Federal prosecutors are expected to unseal an indictment later today, revealing the charges against that individual and others involved.

In May, Los Angeles police confirmed they were collaborating with federal authorities to trace the source of the ketamine that Perry had ingested.

Ketamine has long been a popular party drug, but in recent years, it has emerged as a promising alternative treatment for depression. An increasing number of clinics now offer ketamine infusions or injections to address a variety of mental health conditions.

Perry had been receiving ketamine infusion therapy for depression and anxiety; however, his final session occurred more than a week before his death. The medical examiner determined that the ketamine found in Perry’s system could not have come from his infusion therapy, citing the drug's short half-life.

The medical examiner found that the ketamine levels in his body were significantly high—comparable to those used for general anesthesia in surgery.

The coroner classified his death as an accident, with contributing factors including drowning, coronary artery disease, and the effects of buprenorphine, a medication used to treat opioid use disorder.

Perry, widely known for his role as Chandler Bing on “Friends,” had openly discussed his long battle with opioid addiction and alcoholism, detailing his experiences in his 2022 memoir, “Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing.” However, according to the medical examiner’s report, he had been sober for 19 months at the time of his death.

In cases like this, it’s not uncommon for law enforcement to investigate—and sometimes prosecute—those who provided the drugs leading to a high-profile death.

Following Michael Jackson's death in 2009, his personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, was convicted of involuntary manslaughter for administering a lethal dose of powerful drugs to the singer. More recently, in 2021, federal prosecutors in New York charged four men for supplying actor Michael K. Williams with the fentanyl-laced heroin that led to his death.

Rachael Lillis, Voice of Pokémon’s Misty and Jessie, Passes Away at 46.

 Veronica Taylor, who voiced Ash Ketchum in "Pokémon," announced the passing of Rachael Lillis following her breast cancer diagnosis in May 2024.

By Variety

Rachael Lillis, the voice actor known for her roles as Misty, Jessie, and other characters in the "Pokémon" series and films, passed away on August 10 at the age of 46.

Lillis had been diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2024. Her "Pokémon" co-star, Veronica Taylor, who voiced Ash Ketchum, shared the news of Lillis' passing in a statement on X Monday morning.

“It is with a very heavy heart that I share the news of the passing of Rachael Lillis on Saturday evening, August 10, 2024,” Taylor wrote. “Rachael was an extraordinary talent, a bright light that shone through her voice whether speaking or singing.

"She will be forever remembered for the many animated roles she brought to life, especially her iconic performances as Misty and Jessie in ‘Pokémon,’" Taylor added. "Rachael was deeply grateful for the outpouring of love and support she received during her battle with cancer. It truly made a difference. Her family also wishes to extend their thanks as they take this time to grieve privately. A memorial will be planned for a future date.”

Lillis began her voice acting career in the 1990s, contributing to hundreds of TV shows, anime series, video games, and more over the next few decades. 

In 1998, she brought to life Misty, the water-type gym leader, in the original "Pokémon" anime. Misty quickly became one of the franchise's most beloved characters, joining Ash, Pikachu, and Brock in the early adventures of the "Pokémon" universe. Lillis also lent her voice to Jessie, the iconic Team Rocket member, who, alongside James and their talking Meowth, became a memorable antagonist in the series.

Lillis brought the pink, singing Pokémon Jigglypuff to life, along with several other characters in the Pokémon universe. She voiced Jigglypuff in all four entries of Nintendo’s popular "Super Smash Brothers" fighting game series, as well as the Pokémon Goldeen. Lillis also reprised her roles as Misty and Jessie in the 1999 film “Pokémon: The First Movie” and continued to voice them in several other films, including “Pokémon: The Movie 2000,” “Mewtwo Returns,” “Spell of the Unown,” “Pokémon 4Ever,” “Pokémon Heroes,” “Jirachi Wish Maker,” “Destiny Deoxys,” and “Lucario and the Mystery of Mew,” among others.

“We all know Rachael Lillis from the many wonderful roles she played. She filled our Saturday mornings and before/after school hours with her beautiful voice, her terrific comic timing, and her remarkable acting skills,” Taylor wrote. “I was lucky enough to know Rachael as a friend."

"She had unlimited kindness and compassion, even until the very end," Taylor said. "She had a great sense of humor, was wonderful to be with, incredibly intelligent, and had such a memory. She worked hard and cared deeply. I am not sure how this very dark void will be filled now that her light no longer shines in it. Like the shooting stars in the Perseids, Rachael was a magnificent wonder and truly special. She burned bright and vanished too soon. She will live on in our memories for eternity.”

Outside of "Pokémon," Lillis has lent her voice to roles in "Your Lie in April," "Hunter x Hunter," "Winx Club," and several other projects.
