Amber Heard recounted several violent incidents with Johnny Depp while on the stand Thursday (May 5th), including a sexual assault that allegedly occurred in Australia shortly after they were married.

A tearful Heard detailed the time she claims he violated her with a glass bottle. She told the jury, "I didn't know if the bottle that he had inside me was broken. I couldn't feel it. I didn't feel pain, I didn't feel anything. I looked around and I saw so much broken glass I didn't know if he would know if it was broken or not and I remember thinking please 'God please, I hope it's not broken.'"

The Aquaman star also told the jury that Depp was insanely jealous. She says he accused her of having affairs with costars like Eddie Redmayne and James Franco and testified that he nearly broke her nose after the 2014 Met Gala because he thought she was flirting with another woman.

While on the stand, Heard also recalled accusing Depp of cheating on her with a woman he had been with years prior. She said she immediately confronted the actor and admitted that she took a swing at him - and landed her first blow – right before he hit her back.

A spokesperson for the Pirates of the Caribbean actor issued a statement Thursday saying, "As Mr. Depp's counsel correctly predicted in their opening statements last month, Ms. Heard did indeed deliver ‘the performance of her life' in her direct examination," the statement read. "While Ms. Heard's stories have continued to grow new and convenient details, Mr. Depp's recollections have remained exactly the same throughout the six painful years since her first allegations were made."

Heard's team issued their own statement saying that Depp and his legal team are unable to "distinguish fact from fiction." They added, "Mr. Depp's behavior in this trial has been as pitiful as it was in their marriage. Apparently, they feel they must double-down on their demonstrably losing two-part strategy: distract the jury and demonize the victim."

Khloe Kardashian is having feelings about seeing her brief reconciliation with ex Tristan Thompson on The Kardashians.

When the show, featuring their brief reunion, aired Thursday (May 5th), Kardashian tweeted, "Well we know how this aged #TheKardashians."

In a separate tweet, she added, "Watching these episodes now I definitely feel a type of way. Oh girl if only you knew… (Me talking to me)."

The pair briefly reunited after Thompson attended the engagement of Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker in October 2021.

In an open letter to Deadline about his ousting from the Netflix series The Fall of the House of Usher, Frank Langella wrote that cancel culture is "not American."

The 84-year-old Tony Award winner writes that he was dismissed from the series on March 25th after he ignored directions from the show's intimacy coordinator and touched the leg of an actress during a love scene. He added, "It was a love scene on camera. Legislating the placement of hands, to my mind, is ludicrous. It undermines instinct and spontaneity."

The actor claims that his reputation has been tarnished as well as his change at future earnings and says, "These indignities are, to my mind, the real definition of unacceptable behavior. Cancel culture is the antithesis of democracy. It inhibits conversation and debate. It limits our ability to listen, mediate, and exchange opposing views. Most tragically, it annihilates moral judgment."

Jennifer Grey revealed on The View that she didn't want Patrick Swayze to co-star in Dirty Dancing until a tearful apology from the actor changed her mind.

According to Grey, the Ghost actor had played several pranks on her during the filming of Red Dawn and she was over it. When it came time for his screen test for Dirty Dancing, she says he pulled her down the hall and said, "I love you, I love you, and I'm so sorry. And I know you don't want me to do the movie."

She continued, "And he got the tears in his eyes. And I got the tears in my eyes — not for the same reason. I was like, ‘Oh, this guy's working me.' And he goes, ‘We could kill it — we could kill it if we did this.'"

The two ultimately killed it during their chemistry read and she says on set, "He was like, the easy chair I'd been dreaming of my whole life."

JOJO SIWA GETS BACK WITH HER EX: JoJo Siwa is back with Kylie Prew. The former Dance Moms star confirmed the news in a series of snaps taken at Disney World and shared on social media Thursday (May 5th) and wrote, "If you love something let it go, if it comes back….🤍♾"

During her emotional testimony Wednesday (May 4th), Amber Heard detailed the first time Johnny Depp allegedly hit her.

Heard told the jury that she had asked the Pirates of the Caribbean actor a question about his famous "Wino Forever" tattoo and he slapped her across the face.

Heard recalled, "I laughed because I didn't know what else to do. I thought this must be a joke because I didn't' know what was going on. I just stared at him thinking that he was going to start laughing too."Instead, she says he slapped her again.

During her testimony, the Aquaman actress said that there were two different sides to Depp. She said, "He was the love of my life but he was also this other thing and this other thing was an awful, awful thing that would come out and take over. You couldn't see the Johnny I loved underneath it."

Ray J has come forward, claiming that Kim Kardashian and her mother Kris Jenner orchestrated the release of their 2007 sex tape. During an interview with The Daily Mail, the singer and entrepreneur said that despite the narrative, he never leaked he and Kim's sex tape.

He explained, "I've never leaked anything. I have never leaked a sex tape in my life. It has never been a leak. It's always been a deal and a partnership between Kris Jenner and Kim and me and we've always been partners since the beginning of this thing."

Ray J said that he pitched Kim the idea of releasing the tape after seeing how a sex tape made Paris Hilton famous. Ray J said that Kim told her mom the idea and they signed a contract for two tapes, the one that was released in 2007 that was filmed during a vacation in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, and the unreleased one created in Santa Barbara, California.

Ray J says that all of the tapes are in Kim's possession, saying, "She kept them all. I never had a tape in my possession in our whole relationship. ... She's always had all the tapes in a Nike shoe box under her bed. I'm sure she has bigger beds now and better boxes. That's how it all came about."

RAY J REGRETS THE SEX TAPE

Ray J added thah he regrets the release of the tape and "felt suicidal" when the family built "an empire from a lie they've created." He added, "As a Black man living and working in America, it's hard to get up every day and look out at the water or look at my family and know that they think something about you when you know it's 1,000 percent the other way." As a result of his involvement in the tape, he said he lost the opportunity to do Dancing with the Stars and America's Got Talent.

Ray J revealed that he decided to speak out becausd Kim has defamed him. During a recent episode of The Kardashians, Kim claimed that Ray J might be in possession of a video that showed him "sticking a dildo in my a**."

As far as the tape that Kanye picked up and returned to Kim, Ray J said that he did indeed have a laptop that contained intimate photos from their relationship and he met with Kanye at a private terminal of LAX to talk about the situation. Kanye viewed the content, took it and left.

Ray J also shared a few DMs that he sent to Kim where he explained to her that saying that her "sticking a dildo in my a**" comment made him "look like a rapist and dirty perv."

Kim responded, saying that the comment was a joke and she "was laughing when I said it." As for the moment showing Ye handing over the alleged footage, she said it painted him "in a positive light." She also apologized for how the situation "affected" Ray.

A 23-year-old man was arrested Wednesday (May 4th) for attacking Dave Chappelle onstage at the Hollywood Bowl during Tuesday night's Netflix Is A Joke Festival at the Hollywood Bowl.

The LAPD says that Isaiah Lee, who was carrying a plastic replica gun that contained a knife blade, was taken into custody for assault with a deadly weapon.

According to reports, the incident occurred just after the comedian told the crowd that he needed to ramp up security due to backlash from his remarks about the trans community last year. Lee was corralled by security and fellow comedian Jamie Foxx as Chappelle joked, "It's a transman," causing backlash online once again.

A Chappelle spokesperson told Deadline in a statement, "Dave Chappelle celebrated four nights of comedy and music, setting record-breaking sales for a comedian at the Hollywood Bowl. This run ties Chappelle with Monty Python for the most headlined shows by any comedian at the Hollywood Bowl, reaching 70k fans of diverse backgrounds during the first Netflix Is A Joke: The Festival, and he refuses to allow last night's incident to overshadow the magic of this historic moment."

Kim Cattrall says she was never even asked to be a part of And Just Like That.

The How I Met Your Father star told Variety, "I was never asked to be part of the reboot. I made my feelings clear after the possible third movie, so I found out about it like everyone else did – on social media."

According to Cattrall, the HBO Max series is a lot like the proposed third film, in which her character was supposed to receive unwanted "d—k pics" from Brady, Miranda's 14-year-old son.

Even if she had been asked – or is asked in the future – the answer will be no. She explained, "It's powerful to say no. It's a great wisdom to know when enough is enough."

By the time the WandaVision star was born in 1989, the twins were already starring on Full House which gave Elizabeth "a lot of insecurities."

When Depp was "not able to perform" during these instances, he would become "enraged," she said. "There were times when he forced her to give him oral sex when he was angry — these weren't loving moments, these were angry moments."

In a haunting addition to her testimony, Hughes said that at one point, Depp screamed, "I will kill you," and penetrated Heard with a bottle. She added that she hoped it "wasn't the broken one."

Hughes added, "The intimate partner violence by Mr. Depp was the cause of Heard's PTSD condition."

Sophia Bush posted to Twitter, "How nice that these ideological nuts who don't care about democracy or the will of the people—who overwhelmingly support a woman's right to choose—can feel safe inside whilst they eviscerate our rights and condemn women to die. Abortion will never end. Only safe abortions."

Jameela Jamil added a gender-inclusive line to her Instagram post on the issue, writing, "This of course applies to people of all genders who can become pregnant."

Rosanna Arquette added, "Get your Boots off our wombs."
