Yvette Nicole Brown is taking Khloe Kardashian to task.

While Kim Kardashian’s tone-deaf response to the Los Angeles wildfires isn’t going over well, she’s not the only member of the family who’s in hot water — so to speak.

See, Khloe decided that now was the time to take aim at the LA mayor. A weird time for that, especially from a member of a family that actually endorsed Rick Caruso.

Yvette is pointing out that maybe Khloe is the last person to talk about this specific topic. It’s not even about politics.

“I stand by You Chief Crowley!!!! You spoke the truth and you had tears in your eyes because I can tell you didn’t even want to say that but it was The Truth. Thank you for being honest. Mayor Bass, you are a joke!!!!” Khloe wrote in her Instagram Stories.

People were quick to point out Khloe‘s own digression from just a couple years ago when Los Angeles was going through a drought, as it is right now.

As the last week of December approaches and viewers prepare for the upcoming animated movies of 2025, it's time to look back at the past year for the best animated movies of 2024. While a recent update about the release window of Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-verse, the current most-anticipated animated movie, practically confirms that there won't be a release date for another 2 years, 2024 has still been very exciting for animation, with the release of sequels to many beloved franchises.

Every animated movie released in 2024 didn't make as big a stir in the box office or among critics as they were supposed to, but there have been some noteworthy surprise hits. While Kung Fu Panda, Inside Out, Moana, and Despicable Me got anticipated sequels, the Transformers franchise branched out into animation, and The Wild Robot got critical and commercial success beyond what anyone had imagined it would.

The actress, who played Helen Dubois, the manager of Premiere Theater who was also Josh’s (Josh Peck) boss on the hit Nickelodeon show, recently told People that her first acting teachers were actually Peck, Drake Bell and Miranda Cosgrove.

“It was amazing to see Drake, Josh and Miranda be so amazing at such young ages,” she explained. “I was just starting out as an actor, so I was really learning and studying these babies and learning how they were moving on these sets.”

“It was one of the first or second things I’d ever done. It was really exciting to be in that training ground and to be already working with professionals, even though they were really young,” Brown continued. “We had a really good time.”

During a recent interview with TV Insider, Jeong, best known for playing the odd Ben Chang on the popular NBC sitcom, expressed his emotional reaction to the script.

Jeong said, “It made me emotional and brought me right back,” but he wouldn’t say more because it was against the law.

Since the Community movie was officially announced in 2022, fans have longed for more information about what the film entails.

Ken Jeong, who played Ben Chang, a Spanish teacher on the NBC sitcom, recently shared a little insight about the project when he spoke about reading the script for the movie.

“It made me emotional, and just brought me right back, and that’s all I’m legally allowed to say,” the Masked Singer judge said in an interview with TV Insider published on Thursday.

While he couldn’t reveal much more, he did say, “There is a script, there is a plan. We just don’t know when [it will happen]. Once that’s agreed upon, it’ll be magical and real emotional.”

He added, “I think being on set experiencing that again [will be] so gratifying. Words can’t even express.”

Community was revolved around a study group at the fictional Greendale Community College.

A Community movie is in the works, and Ken Jeong is teasing the script, which he says got him really emotional.

Jeong is set to reprise his Spanish teacher Ben Chang role in the movie based on the Dan Harmon-created sitcom. In a new interview, Jeong talked about reading the script and how it made him feel.

“It made me emotional, and just brought me right back, and that’s all I’m legally allowed to say,” Jeong told TV Insider.

The Community movie is reportedly being “reworked,” and Jeong says they still don’t know when filming will start.

“There is a script, there is a plan. We just don’t know when [it will happen]. Once that’s agreed upon, it’ll be magical and real emotional.” Imagining what filming will look like, Jeong said, “I think being on set experiencing that again [will be] so gratifying. Words can’t even express.

In a new preview of the Hollywood Squares reboot, viewers see some humorous moments from the upcoming game show.
