Harvey Weinstein has been diagnosed with Bone Marrow Cancer.

Disgraced Hollywood producer, Harvey Weinstein has been diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia, according to reports from NBC News and ABC News. The 72-year-old is currently undergoing treatment for the condition while imprisoned in New York. Weinstein made his first court appearance in September since undergoing emergency heart surgery, arriving in a wheelchair to plead not guilty to a new criminal charge. His lawyer, Arthur Aidala, stated that Weinstein “almost died” after the surgery. Weinstein has faced numerous health issues, including diabetes, COVID-19, and pneumonia. Earlier this year, the New York Court of Appeals overturned his 2020 rape conviction, citing errors in the original trial, where three additional accusers were improperly allowed to testify. A retrial has been ordered, with proceedings now expected to begin in early 2025.

Lil Uzi Vert surprises fans with a new teaser, “Uzi the Earthling! (The TV Theme).”

American rapper, Lil Uzi Vert continues to push boundaries and surprise fans with their latest teaser, “Uzi the Earthling! (The TV Theme).” In a complete departure from their usual style, the 30-second track is not a typical hard-hitting banger, but rather a 1960s-style jingle reminiscent of a quirky sitcom theme. Surprisingly, Uzi is not even featured on the track—there’s no rapping or signature ad-libs. Instead, a woman sings a playful tune about the “Earthling” who spreads joy. The unexpected release hints at a bold, experimental phase in Uzi’s career, showcasing their willingness to challenge expectations. Fans have expressed mixed reactions on social media, with many praising Uzi for their fearlessness in trying something new, while others are left curious about what’s next. Regardless, “Uzi the Earthling!” sets the tone for an unconventional, exciting future for the rapper.
