Angelina Jolie’s Oscar snub sparks feud rumours: Did Brad Pitt and Hollywood turn against her?

Angelina Jolie is reportedly reeling from her unexpected exclusion from this year’s Academy Award nominations for Maria, despite critical acclaim for her portrayal of opera legend Maria Callas.

Rape of 13-yr-old: Case against Jay-Z and Diddy dismissed

A lawsuit accusing music moguls Sean "Diddy" Combs and Jay-Z of raping a 13-year-old girl in 2000 has been dismissed, according to court filings submitted in New York on Friday.

The anonymous plaintiff, known as Jane Doe, voluntarily withdrew the case, as confirmed by legal documents. The attorney handling the case, Tony Buzbee, who represents multiple clients alleging sexual misconduct against Combs, filed the dismissal. The court records indicate the case was dismissed "with prejudice," meaning it cannot be refiled in its current form.
