Rob's Out, LaRoyce's Gone, Johnny Blows Up

Rob Kardashian has become the family’s most elusive member, and apparently, he’s perfectly fine with that. According to a source close to the reality TV dynasty, the youngest Kardashian brother is thriving in the shadows—keeping his distance from cameras while leaning on his sister Khloé as they co-parent his daughter Dream together. He’s single, steering clear of the spotlight, and channeling his energy into business instead of fame. When The Kardashians season 8 rolls around, don’t expect to see much of Rob. His limited appearances mark a sharp contrast to his siblings’near-constant presence in the public eye, signaling that some members of the family have simply decided the spotlight isn’t worth it.

The entertainment world is also saying goodbye to some familiar faces this fall. Chicago P.D. is losing LaRoyce Hawkins after 13 seasons as a series regular, with Kevin Atwater’s exit unfolding in the opening episodes of season 14 on NBC. Meanwhile, Chicago Fire is also undergoing a shift in leadership, as showrunner Andrea Newman departs and coexecutive producer Victor Teran takes the helm. These moves signal the end of an era for the long-running police drama, which has been a cornerstone of NBC’s lineup.

Then there’s the mess nobody asked for. Former Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel went on a homophobic tirade against Cleveland sports radio host Tom Rizzo on Wednesday, July 1, after Rizzo brought up comments Manziel made last October about rooting against the Browns. The explosive rant, unleashed on X, shows just how volatile things can get when old grievances meet social media. Manziel, drafted 22nd overall in 2014, told Rizzo to“leave me out of this bulls***.”It’s a reminder that some athletes never quite escape the spotlight—even when they try to outrun it.
