House Ethics Committee Chair Michael Guest (R-MS) revealed Monday that the formal report on their investigation into Matt Gaetz’s alleged misconduct was made available to all 10 members of the committee. According to Politico, only Guest and fellow ranking member Rep. Susan Wild (D-PA) previously had a copy. On Wednesday, the committee is scheduled to meet to discuss Gaetz’s dossier. Guest’s announcement comes amid bipartisan calls from members of the Senate Judiciary Committee to release the report’s findings after Donald Trump tapped Gaetz as his nominee for Attorney General. Meanwhile, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has pleaded with the committee to keep their findings sealed. The two-year-long ethics probe into Gaetz seemingly ended last week when the former Florida congressman resigned from the House. Since his nomination and resignation, however, a lawyer for the victims of Gaetz’s alleged sexual misconduct has revealed that his clients told the House Ethics Committee that they attended between five and 10 “sex parties” with the former congressman between mid-2017 and the end of 2018. Gaetz has continually denied any wrongdoing.

Russian ballet star Vladimir Shklyarov died on Saturday after falling from the fifth floor of a building. The preliminary cause of death was labeled as an accident, with Russian authorities launching an investigation into the sudden death, according to RIA Novosti, a Russian state media outlet. In Feb. 2022, at the beginning of Russia’s invasion in Ukraine, the dancer spoke out against the violence. “I am against the war in Ukraine! I am for the people, for a peaceful sky over my head! Politicians should be able to negotiate without shooting and killing civilians, for that they are given their tongue and head,” he was quoted saying by Russian-Ukrainian former ballet dancer Alexei Ratmansky on Facebook. “It is impossible to watch everything that is happening today without tears... I wanna dance... I want to love everyone—that’s the purpose of my life... I do not want wars, no borders.” CNN reported that he was going to have “complex spinal surgery” two days before his death, and was on “serious painkillers.” He was one of the highest-ranking dancers at the Mariinsky Theater in Russia. Shklyarov was married to Maria Shirinkina, another dancer at the theater. The pair had a son and daughter. “It is with profound sadness that the Mariinsky Theatre announces the untimely passing of principal dancer Vladimir Shklyarov. Mr Shklyarov, a beloved artist and audience favourite, died tragically on 16 November,” wrote the theater on their website. “His loss is deeply felt by the entire Mariinsky family and the wider ballet world.”

Democratic-leaning healthcare groups discussed strategy for stopping Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s confirmation as Health and Human Services secretary, Politico reported Monday. “We’re nowhere near conceding he’s going to be the next HHS secretary,” said Brad Woodhouse, executive director of Protect Our Care. On a call with over 200 people from dozens of healthcare organizations, Protect Our Care launched the “Stop RFK War Room,” which aims to convince moderate Republicans to block Kennedy’s confirmation. The war room will target Sens. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine, who are both moderates. They’ll also reach out to Sen. Mitch McConnell, who survived polio, and Sen. Thom Tillis, who is up for re-election in North Carolina in 2026. Woodhouse said that while some of Kennedy’s ideas—like eliminating food additives—have a broader appeal, his other ideas, like dismantling the FDA and the National Institute of Health, are “too dangerous.” Woodhouse added, “just because Hannibal Lecter has a couple good ideas on something, doesn’t mean I want to invite Hannibal Lecter to dinner.”

Actor Paul Teal, best known for his role as Josh on the teen soap One Tree Hill, died on Friday, his loved ones announced Teal, 35, had been been battling cancer, Forbes reported. His fiancé Emilia Torello confirmed his death on Instagram and described him as “the most thoughtful, inspiring, driven, self-disciplined, loving man.” One Tree Hill actress Bethany Joy Lenz also paid tribute to the actor with her own post. “Paul Teal was the kind of guy who lit up a room without trying,” she wrote, “His bright smile, infectious laugh and kind heart made you want to be near him.” Teal appeared in seven episodes of season seven of One Tree Hill, and also had roles on other dramas The Walking Dead: World Beyond, Outer Banks, and George & Tammy. Joy Lenz, who’d worked with Teal on other projects before casting him to join Hill, praised his “self-effacing sense of humor” and called him “a joy to work with.”

Many have expressed a desire to leave the country after Donald Trump’s election win, and one cruise company has packaged a convenient way to miss his entire White House term with its Tour La Vie program. Florida-based company Villa Vie Residences‘ four-year “escape” option allows guests to visit over 425 ports in 140 countries. While shorter time periods are available at one to three years, the program’s “Skip Forward” option will ensure you never touch American soil during Trump’s term. Packages start at around $40,000 a year aboard the Villa Vie Odyssey, which fits 600 residents. Food, drinks, WiFi, and housekeeping are all included, along with the option to have friends and family on board for $129 a day. Mikael Petterson, the company’s chief executive officer, told Newsweek that the company would’ve marketed the cruise the same way even if Kamala Harris had won. “We came up with this marketing campaign before we even knew who would win,” he said. “We don’t have a political view one way or the other. We just wanted to give people who feel threatened to have a way to get out.”

Passing actress Rebecca Hall “regrets” condemning Woody Allen, she said in a new profile for The Guardian. “I don’t think it’s the responsibility of his actors to speak to that situation,” Hall told the magazine, so “I kind of regret making that statement.” Allen gave Hall the role that catapulted her career, in 2008’s Vicky Cristina Barcelona. But in 2018, she took to social media to share that she’d donated her salary on her last film with Allen, 2019’s A Rainy Day in New York, to the Time’s Up Legal Defense Fund, and regretted that working with the director again “made another woman feel silenced and dismissed.” Allen’s daughter Dylan Farrow had just resurfaced her accusations of sexual abuse at the hands of her father, prompting several stars to condemn the director or be side-eyed for working with him. Hall told The Guardian, “It just became, ‘another person denounces Woody Allen and regrets working with him, which is not what I said actually. I don’t regret working with him. He gave me a great job opportunity and he was kind to me.” She added, “I don’t think that we should be the ones who are doing judge and jury on this.”

YouTuber Rosanna Pansino fulfilled her father’s dying wish—to be grown as a marijuana plant and smoked. The internet star shared in her new podcast “Rodiculous” that her father, who died five years ago, wanted his ashes to be mixed in with soil and grown into a marijuana plant. She said that her mom was at first a bit hesitant, but as time went on, they decided to go for it. “We just really think that it’s the right time to do what dad wanted and to honor him the way he wanted,” Pansino said. At the beginning of the episode, she showed footage of her and her mom planting the marijuana with his ashes, and called the backyard occasion “emotional and special.” Pansino held a pink joint, saying that she couldn’t believe she was doing this while laughing. She was joined later in the episode by her mom and sister, who smoked the special strain off-camera. “The blunt that we smoked was delicious,” Pansino said after the smoke sesh. “If Papa Pizza could see this... he would get a huge kick out of this.”

An urgent message to starving artists the world over–why eat your groceries if you can lob them on the wall for a $1,499,999 mark-up? The viral duct-taped banana art installation ‘Comedian’, brainchild of Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan, is headed for auction at Sotheby’s on Nov. 20, where it’s expected to fetch anywhere between $1 million and $1.5 million from some perfectly sensible, presumably potassium-deficient bidder. “We are looking at an ordinary banana and an ordinary piece of duct-tape. However what makes the ordinary extraordinary is the intention of the artist who put this together,” as Sotheby’s head of contemporary art, David Galperin, so convincingly explains it. “There is, simply put, no other artwork of the past 100 years that has provoked the kind of response that Maurizio Cattelan’s ‘Comedian’ did upon its installation at Art Basel Miami Beach in 2019.” Which is a good thing, obviously. In any case, whoever does eventually walk away with the piece, which has already fallen victim to hungry gallery-goers, naturally won’t be buying the notorious original fruit, which has long gone the way of fertilizer. Instead, they’ll be forking out a pretty penny to not only regularly replace the banana themselves, but also the tape affixing it to the wall of their home. If you’re pressed for cash you might consider the budget alternative–but then that’d be missing the ‘point’, wouldn’t it?

If you’re unfamiliar with the ŌURA rings’ technology, allow me to explain further. Unlike other wrist wearables like the FitBit and Apple Watch, the ŌURA Ring is worn on your finger, offering a more sleek and discreet profile, and rings also tend to fit better, yielding more accurate readings.

The ring’s form factor was chosen because the finger provides a stronger heart rate signal than any other place on the body. “The ring takes bio measurements directly from the arteries in the finger whereas smartwatches (or wrist wearables) sit on the top of the wrist, farther away from the arteries on the bottom of the wrist,” a rep for ŌURA tells The Daily Beast. “The ŌURA Ring is the only research-validated wearable on the market that directly measures the arteries in your fingers (just like doctors do).” It’s time to eliminate your bulky wrist tracker while select styles are up to $200 off for (early) Black Friday.

Ohio officials have condemned a group of neo-Nazis who marched through a downtown neighborhood in Columbus on Saturday. Videos posted to social media show 11 men, clad in black from head to toe, with face coverings, walking in unison in the city’s Short North area. Four of them carried black flags with red swastikas—videos posted to social media show they chanted white nationalist slogans and racist slurs. One clip shows one of the marchers raising his arm in a Nazi salute. “There is no place in this state for hate, bigotry, antisemitism, or violence, and we must denounce it wherever we see it,” Gov. Mike DeWine said. Columbus Mayor Andrew Ginther called the march a “cowardly display.” Keon Tullius, who witnessed the group “screaming racial slurs,” recorded them from inside a restaurant where he was eating and posted the footage on Facebook. After the social network took his video down, he posted it again, writing, “This behavior is completely unacceptable and must be documented and called out.”

Embattled actor Jonathan Majors has gotten engaged to girlfriend Meagan Good, People magazine reported. The former Marvel star and the Shazam: Fury of the Gods actor announced news of their engagement at the EBONY Power 100 Gala on Sunday. “We’re feeling great,” Good told the magazine. “It’s a season of joy,” Majors added. The couple began dating in May 2023, not long after Majors, 35, was arrested on suspicion of assaulting his ex-girlfriend. Many predicted the actor was on the verge of superstardom at the time thanks to his portrayal of villain Kang the Conqueror in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But after Majors’ arrest, his PR and management companies dropped him, and several high-profile projects—including a new Avengers movie he was slated to lead—fell through. In December, he was convicted of misdemeanor assault and harassment, and sentenced to a year of domestic violence counseling. Good, 43, attended his court appearances and stood by him even as more women came forward with allegations of abuse—claims that Majors has denied. Despite his legal troubles, in June Majors landed a starring role in a new film from director Martin Villeneuve. “It’s a season of all good things,” said Good, who most recently starred in Tyler Perry’s Divorce in the Black, at the EBONY gala. “Amen,” Majors agreed.
