Reshona Landfair, previously known as "Jane Doe" in the R. Kelly trials, is revealing her identity and sharing her story of abuse in a new memoir, "Who's Watching Shorty? Reclaiming Myself from the Shame of R. Kelly's Abuse," according to NPR News. The memoir details Landfair's experiences of grooming, sexual abuse, and isolation following the surfacing of a video depicting Kelly abusing her.
The video was used in Kelly's 2008 acquittal and later in his 2022 conviction on child pornography charges, NPR reported. Landfair's decision to come forward aims to shed light on the grooming tactics she alleges Kelly used and the profound impact the leaked videotape had on her life. Her story is described as a powerful narrative of resilience and healing.
In other news, Variety reported that Rebecca Ferguson chose not to name an actor who allegedly screamed at her and made her cry on set, stating that the story "wasn't about the person. It was about me." The incident occurred sometime in the past, but Ferguson recently discussed it publicly without revealing the individual's identity.
Also from Variety, "Star Trek: Starfleet Academy" paid tribute to "Deep Space Nine" in a recent episode, which included the return of Cirroc Lofton as Jake Sisko. The episode, titled "Series Acclimation Mil," is the fifth episode of the series and is currently streaming on Paramount. The episode also sees SAM (Kerrice) grappling with an enduring "Star Trek" mystery.
Time magazine featured a piece by Michael Keaton, who reminisced about working with Catherine O'Hara. Keaton recalled a specific incident from two years prior, on Oscar night, where a comedic bit they attempted while presenting did not land as expected. Keaton stated, "To work comedically with Catherine [O'Hara], as I was lucky to get to do not just at the awards..." He further expressed his admiration for O'Hara, saying working with her was "like breathing rarefied air."
