Diane Warren adopted a pig named Wilbur after he went viral for running loose in West Hollywood

Warren has a history of rescuing animals, including a cow that escaped a slaughterhouse in 2021

“Get the pig. Save the pig,’” the songwriter said after seeing Wilbur on the news

It’s “Times Like This” we all remember why we love Diane Warren.

On Thursday, Aug. 20, the Oscar-nominated songwriter, 69, met a pig named Wilbur face-to-face for the first time since the animal went viral after being seen running through the streets of West Hollywood over the weekend.

As Warren arrived at the West L.A. Animal Shelter, ABC 7 had the cameras rolling.

“Oh my God. You’re so cute,” the musician told the piglet, who got his moniker from the children’s book Charlotte’s Web, as she approached his cage.

“Look, you’re gonna have a really good home,” she added. “What are you doing running around Hollywood like that?”

Because Wilbur became an overnight sensation after the farm animal was seen running the big city streets, there was lots of interest from residents wanting to adopt him. To help find his new family, the animal shelter he was taken to held a silent auction.

Marcia Zwilling, managing director of the Diane Warren Foundation, placed the winning bid for the Grammy winner.

“Diane saw the news clips and saw the little pig running in West Hollywood, and she just called me and said, ‘Please get the pig, get the pig!’ ” Zwilling told the news outlet in an on-camera interview.

“‘Get the pig. Save the pig,’ ” she recalled Warren telling her.

Wilbur’s new home will be a seven-acre animal sanctuary in Malibu, and the pig may even be getting a new name since Warren already owns a “Wilbur.” And it’s not the first time she’s rescued an animal in need.

In 2021, the “Superwoman” artist saved another summer runaway — a cow that made headlines for escaping from a Southern California slaughterhouse.

After contacting the city of Pico Rivera, Warren arranged to have the cow sent to Farm Sanctuary — a nonprofit animal welfare organization with a location in Acton, Calif., — she and city manager Steve Carmona told the at the time.

Warren told the outlet that when she saw the animal on the news, “crying out” as wranglers tried to catch her, that she “couldn’t unsee that.”

“This isn’t my first cow I’ve saved,” she told the AP. “But this feels like a special cow. Because this was that one. So it’s almost like she represents all cows wanting to be free.”

Warren’s affinity for animals doesn’t stop at those typically found on farms.

In June, Taylor Dayne spoke exclusively to PEOPLE about Warren’s quirky habit of showing up with a bird on her shoulder.

“I’m like, ‘Who the F shows up with a bird on their shoulder constantly?’” Dayne, 64, told PEOPLE of Warren’s love of birds. “I’m like, ‘How do you go to lunch with that?’ She goes, ‘Shut up, Taylor.’ Like, ‘I’m going to lunch with the bird.’ Animals always came first with Diane, so I kind of got it. And then she would never clean up her studio.”

“There’s a million stories about Diane, but her humanity is always animals first and humans later. And therapy,” she added.

Mariska Hargitay is not stepping away from the "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" anytime soon.

The actor, 62, in a recent interview with Variety, said she's not hanging up her detective hat, despite feeling she wasn't serving other interests and people around her telling her to expand her mediums and explore other genres.

“Do I want to quit now? No. Why? I made a movie while shooting; I did a play for six weeks on hiatus. I’m hosting the Emmys," Hargitay said. “Next summer, if I don’t make another movie, I’ll probably do another play. And I love it!”

Hargitay said she realized she didn't need to give up the show that gives her purpose to diversify herself and try new things. The actor earned eight Emmy nominations for outstanding lead actress in a drama series for her portrayal of Detective Olivia Benson on NBC’s long-running crime procedural, which premiered in 1999, and won a statuette in 2006.

She added that after she made her film, “it was unleashed. Something got unleashed, or broken open, or freed.”

“The comedy thing was painful to me, because I felt like I was only exercising one part of myself," Hargitay told the publication. "People would say, ‘You need to get off that show and do comedy. You need to get off that show and have a talk show.’”

That said, Hargitay revealed she did consider leaving her role around the Season 25 mark and discussed it with fellow actor Julianna Margulies, who had previously attempted to redefine her career by leaving “ER” in 2000 at its peak.

“I said, ‘I’ve got to leave the show too. I don’t want people to think I’m a one-trick pony.’ And she goes, ‘Sweetheart, that ship’s sailed,’” Hargitay said.

Hargitay said when she first discussed leaving "SVU" with Margulies, she wasn't exactly "ready to leave, because I loved it. And then I got to do all this other stuff, and that’s why I don’t think about leaving right now.”

Mariska Hargitay to host this year's Emmys

NBC has tapped Hargitay to serve as emcee during TV's biggest night this year.

"It's my great honor to host the 78th Emmy Awards – in the 100th birthday year of my beloved NBC – and celebrate this extraordinary community of storytellers," the "SVU" star said in the announcement. "Whether it's an actor or a director, a costumer or a sound designer, we are all so privileged to take part in creating television that unites us. Regardless of how, where or when we watch, we are together in our laughter, our tears, our love of stories – and our delighted anticipation to see what happens next."

Hargitay is also nominated at the awards for directing and producing “My Mom Jayne,” the HBO documentary about the complicated legacy of Hargitay’s late mother, actress Jayne Mansfield. Hargitay began shooting her film in 2023 while “SVU” was in production. “I don’t even know how I did it,” she said.

The 25-year-old did not appear to be hampered by injury during the tournament, apart from when he slipped on the grass during his round-one win over Miomir Kecmanovic.

“Even though I have been working hard with my team and my medical staff, we have now had to make the difficult decision that I will not be able to compete at the US Open this year,” Sinner said.

“We have been back on court in Monte Carlo over the last couple of days and have realised that I still need more time to recover from my right knee issue.

“I’m obviously very sad and disappointed, as New York has a special place in my heart. I was very much looking forward to coming back and playing in the electric atmosphere in front of the great fans there.”

Clear Eyes: Maximum Itchy Eye Relief -

More than 39,000 bottles of Clear Eyes Maximum Itchy Eye Relief have been recalled nationwide

The voluntary recall comes amid potential contamination, with the FDA citing a “lack of assurance of sterility”

Consumers are instructed to check for Lot 2552A and an expiration date of Sept. 30, 2027, on affected bottles

A Clear Eyes eye drop product has been recalled nationwide after its manufacturer raised concerns that the product may not be sterile and could potentially be contaminated, according to the Food and Drug Administration.

The recall affects Clear Eyes Maximum Itchy Eye Relief, which comes in 15 mL (0.5 fl oz) dropper bottles. A total of 39,060 bottles are affected, according to the FDA.

The recall was voluntarily initiated by Prestige Brands Holdings on July 29 and was classified by the FDA as a Class II recall on Aug. 14. The FDA says the recall is due to a “lack of assurance of sterility” because of “potential contamination.”

For consumers who may have the product at home, the affected bottles can be identified by Lot 2552A and an expiration date of Sept. 30, 2027, according to the FDA.

The product was distributed nationwide in the United States, according to the agency.

The FDA classifies a Class II recall as one involving a product that could cause “temporary or medically reversible health consequences,” or when the likelihood of serious health consequences is considered remote.

Clear Eyes Maximum Itchy Eye Relief is designed to soothe and moisturize the eyes, helping relieve irritation, burning and mild dryness, according to the product’s website. Its active ingredients are glycerin, naphazoline hydrochloride and zinc sulfate.

The product also contains benzalkonium chloride, boric acid, edetate disodium, purified water, sodium chloride and sodium citrate as inactive ingredients.

The recall remains ongoing, according to the FDA.

WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert has spoken out against critics attempting to "sow divisiveness" amid ongoing discussions surrounding transgender athletes in women's basketball. She addressed the issue on Thursday in Dallas, before the Indiana Fever’s 91-85 defeat to the Dallas Wings, at the home of the Dallas Mavericks.

Protesters gathered outside the American Airlines Center, continuing a trend seen at multiple venues following public remarks by Fever player Sophie Cunningham.

In a detailed profile with ESPN, Cunningham expressed her support for prohibiting transgender girls and women from participating in female sports categories.

The pregame session marked Engelbert's first public statement on the matter since the league condemned bad-faith attempts to leverage the discussion to "demean or marginalize others."

Last week, the WNBA released an official statement rebuking attempts to manufacture controversy around athlete eligibility guidelines.

Speaking next to Wings CEO and managing partner Greg Bibb, Engelbert remarked, "People are trying to use the league to sow divisiveness."

She added, "We’re being the center of political football for people who have never watched the WNBA, never have written about the WNBA or reported on the WNBA," echoing phrasing previously employed by NBA Commissioner Adam Silver regarding the situation surrounding the league.

Under the WNBA's collective bargaining agreement, rules dictate that "only players who are women are eligible to play in the WNBA," though the text lacks explicit definitions concerning gender identity or birth-assigned sex.

The debate heightened earlier this month when former NBA players Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White announced their intentions to enter the WNBA draft, claiming they identify as women.

In a memo distributed to team presidents and general managers earlier this month, Engelbert said the league plans to hold further dialogue about transgender women's participation in the sport.

Addressing the broader scrutiny, she said Thursday, "There’s always going to be haters out there and we denounce it. But that’s what happens when you have made it as a legitimate sports media and entertainment product."

Canadian provincial leader says Trump is a ‘bad person’ as Canada weighs concessions for trade deal By ROB GILLIES Fri, August 21, 2026 at 12:51 AM UTC 49 TORONTO (AP) — The premier of a Canadian province launched a blistering attack on U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday, calling him a “bad person” and “not to be trusted” and urging Canada to keep fighting rather than rush to make concessions in trade talks with Washington.

Canadian provincial leader says Trump is a ‘bad person’ as Canada weighs concessions for trade deal

TORONTO (AP) — The premier of a Canadian province launched a blistering attack on U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday, calling him a “bad person” and “not to be trusted” and urging Canada to keep fighting rather than rush to make concessions in trade talks with Washington.

Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew said Canada has leverage in the talks even as his province weighs restoring U.S. alcohol sales at Prime Minister Mark Carney’s urging to help secure a deal that would avert threatened 50% U.S. tariffs.

“Everybody knows the American president by now, he’s erratic, he’s irresponsible, and he’s not to be trusted. And this is the person that we were supposed to make a deal with, and we’re going to make additional concessions for it. That’s why I say you can't make a good deal with a bad person, because who’s to say it’s not going to be undone?" Kinew said.

Dominic LeBlanc, the federal minister responsible for Canada-U.S. trade, said Thursday the two countries were close to finalizing an agreement after he returned to Washington to meet again with U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer.

“We’re very close. We continue to make progress,” he said, adding that Canadian officials would remain in Washington to keep working on the deal. Trump has called the emerging agreement “very fair” to both sides, while tariffs on about $20 billion worth of Canadian imports have been postponed until 12:01 a.m. Saturday. Neither side has released the full terms.

Despite his criticism of Trump, Kinew said Manitoba may go along with Carney’s request as part of a “Team Canada” approach. But he urged consumers to keep buying Canadian even if U.S. products return to provincial liquor stores. Other provincial leaders, including the premiers of Saskatchewan and Nova Scotia, have publicly backed the direction of Carney’s negotiation.

Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Tony Wakeham said all premiers agreed during Wednesday’s call with Carney to return U.S. alcohol to store shelves, although not every premier has publicly confirmed that position.

"I think we should fight. I think Donald Trump is very weak. I think America is weaker around the world today than it was a year ago. He’s about to get slaughtered in the midterms and the cost of living is the number one issue and he’s completely out of touch with the cost of living of Americans,” Kinew said.

“We’ve got the upper hand. They are back on their heels right now. They are coming to us for a deal right now."

Restoring alcohol sales a sticking point

Kinew said he understood Carney’s request to mean that restoring U.S. alcohol sales was effectively necessary to complete the deal. The provincial bans on U.S. alcohol have been a particular irritant for the Trump administration, which has pressed Canada to remove restrictions that sharply reduced American liquor sales.

Provincial governments do not have a veto over the overall Canada-U.S. agreement, but they control measures such as liquor sales and some procurement rules that have become part of the negotiations.

Eight of Canada’s 10 provinces restrict or ban U.S. alcohol — measures imposed in retaliation for Trump’s previous tariffs on Canadian goods and amid anger over his repeated talk of making Canada the 51st U.S. state.

Kinew said Carney strongly pressed premiers to restore U.S. alcohol sales while other details of the agreement were still being finalized. “I wouldn’t say that he was begging us, but what is the step before begging?” Kinew said.

Ontario, Canada’s most populous province, is especially important. Its government-run LCBO, one of the world’s largest alcohol purchasers, sold nearly 1 billion Canadian dollars ($723 million) worth of U.S. products annually before pulling them from shelves last year.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford, who has clashed with Trump before, has not yet commented on the emerging deal.

Kinew said Canadians should not buy American products even if they return.

“When we put the American booze back on the Liquor Mart shelves, Canadians, leave it there. Spend your money on Canadian products that are going to employ people in our country and that have an administration that respects Canada," Kinew said.

Kinew also said Manitoba could agree to remove formal restrictions on U.S. companies and products, including procurement preferences, while continuing to favor Canadian suppliers in its own purchasing.

Kinew said he preferred to keep fighting, noting the U.S. Republican president’s tendency to levy extremely high import taxes and then retreat. He mentioned what’s known as the “TACO” trade, an acronym coined by The Financial Times’ Robert Armstrong that stands for “Trump Always Chickens Out."

“Do we expect that this is going to be the end of Donald Trump?," Kinew said.

Quebec Premier Christine Fréchette, meanwhile, said Carney had answered many of her questions about the emerging agreement but stopped short of endorsing it while the province assesses the economic impact. She said Quebec could restore U.S. alcohol to shelves at the SAQ, the Quebec government corporation that controls most wine and spirits sales in the province, but stressed that the decision would be Quebec’s.

Robert Bothwell, a professor emeritus of Canadian history and international relations at the University of Toronto, said Kinew’s criticism reflects a broader Canadian view of Trump. “Kinew speaks for Canada,” Bothwell said. “The majority of the Canadian people hates Trump.”

Tom Holland will make more than $100 million for 'Spider-man: Brand New Day' (AFP/Getty)

Tom Holland is set to earn more than $100 million for starring in hit movie Spider-Man: Brand New Day,according to a new report by The Wrap.

In its third week at the box office, the newest installment of the superhero series has become the eighth highest-grossing film of all time, surpassing $2 billion in global ticket sales. The Marvel Cinematic Universe sequel was propelled by an incredible opening weekend, with a record-setting $360 million domestic debut out of its $932 million worldwide box office total.

Insiders told The Wrap that the British actor, 30, was paid $20 million upfront for the blockbuster. That means he has the potential to receive another $80 million or more in backend bonuses, which are typically paid out to actors and directors once a movie covers its production and distribution costs.

Holland’s backend bonus is also reportedly not capped, which means there is no limit to how much he might make for this movie. The upfront $20 million payment to the actor is already about double what he received for Spider-Man: No Way Home in 2021.

The Independent has reached out to Sony Pictures and representatives for Holland for comment.

Brand New Day marks Holland’s fourth solo outing as the web-slinging New York superhero. The movie, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, also stars Holland’s wife Zendaya, Sadie Sink and Jon Bernthal.

The sequel is the last Marvel film before Avengers: Doomsday is slated to bring back iconic Marvel characters and introduce key figures from the X-Men franchise to the MCU for the first time.

Holland’s massive salary for the Marvel Cinematic Universe sequel comes after his other movie currently in theaters, Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, has also dominated the box office since its July 17 release.

Nolan’s adaptation of Homer’s ancient Greek epic sailed past the one billion dollar mark at the global box office less than a month after its release, making it the Oscar-winning director’s highest-grossing film to date.

Holland’s performance in the film as Telemachus, Odysseus’s son, prompted praise for him as well as Zendaya, 29, who played Greek goddess Athena in the film and starred as MJ in Brand New Day.

After their movies raked in billions, the married power couple could potentially become the most profitable box office actors in a single year in the history of Hollywood.
