Britney Spears is no stranger to public scrutiny. The formerly troubled star’s life is front and center — once again — in Framing Britney Spears, a new documentary that shines a light on her ongoing conservatorship that’s left her with limited control over herself. “There’s a mixed reaction among Britney’s friends and family,” a source tells Us.

Morgan Wallen is getting recognized more for his bad decisions than his music these days. Just four months after he was disinvited from performing on Saturday Night Live for breaking Covid-19 safety protocols, the country singer came under fire once again — this time for using a racial slur in a newly surfaced video. The musician, 27 — who later apologized, calling his choice of words “unacceptable and inappropriate” — was immediately suspended by his record label, and dropped by radio stations, digital streaming services and his talent agency. Wallen’s actions, however, don’t come as a surprise to his inner circle, a source tells Us. “Morgan had a very rough childhood, and continued to learn bad behavior in his adult life.” When he messes up, “his friends cover for him,”…

There’s nothing like working with family. Olivia Newton-John knows that better than most after collaborating for the second time on a song with daughter Chloe Lattanzi. “Window in the Wall” is about ending hate and uniting all — a very timely message. “The moment that I heard it, it really touched my heart and made me cry,” the icon says. “I thought, I really need to record this song.” PERFECT PAIR Although Lattanzi has worked with her mom before — and the Grease actress has been in the spotlight for decades — there were still nerves. “When we went into the studio for the first take, I broke down and I said, ‘Mom, I’m so sorry, but I need you to leave.’ I was so nervous to sing in front…
