Good afternoon Wypierdalaj,

Below are the latest entertainment news stories.

Joshua Jackson is breaking his silence about the death of his late “Dawson’s Creek” co-star, James Van Der Beek. He made his first public comments on his passing in an exclusive interview on TODAY on March 10.

“I think it hits in a variety of different ways,” he said. “For me as a father now, I think the enormity of that tragedy for his family hits me in a very different way than just as a colleague. So I think the processing is is ongoing.”

Van Der Beek died in February, sparking an outpouring of grief from his “Dawson’s Creek” family.

Daryl Hannah pulls no punches in blasting “Love Story” and how she is portrayed in the FX series that follows the relationship between John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette.

Hannah, who dated JFK Jr. before he married Bessette, blasts the show in a New York Times op-ed published March 6.

“I have generally chosen not to respond to media coverage of me,” she wrote. “I have long believed that engaging with distortion often amplifies it. But a recent tragedy-exploiting television series about John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette features a character using my name and presents her as me. The choice to portray her as irritating, self-absorbed, whiny and inappropriate was no accident.”

Travis Kelce is shaking off retirement rumors for another year.

The 36-year-old tight end reportedly will return to the Kansas City Chiefs for his 14th NFL season on a one-year deal worth a max value of $15 million, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported, citing sources.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport first reported the news Monday just before the legal tampering period opened. Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast seemed to confirm the news by quoting Schefter’s contract post.

A 35-year-old Florida woman was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after shots were fired Sunday at the Los Angeles home of singer Rihanna, hip-hop star A$AP Rocky and the couple’s children.

Ivanna Ortiz was identified by the Los Angeles Police Department as the woman under arrest. She remained in custody after police responded Sunday afternoon to a report of shots fired from a car at the nine-time Grammy winner’s home in Los Angeles’ Beverly Crest neighborhood.

Justice Department lawyers announced Monday that they’d reached a settlement in their antitrust lawsuit against Ticketmaster and its parent company, Live Nation Entertainment, in a case that alleged an illegal monopoly over live events in America. But it remained possible that some states might continue a trial on their own.

The announcement by the Justice Department at the start of the trial in federal court in Manhattan was greeted angrily by Judge Arun Subramanian, who said no one informed him of the tentative deal until late Sunday even though a term sheet for a possible settlement was signed on Thursday.

“It’s entirely unacceptable,” he said.

A woman was arrested Sunday after allegedly firing multiple shots at the Los Angeles home of singer Rihanna, who was inside the residence at the time of the shooting, police said.

The incident occurred around 1:21 p.m. at the Beverly Crest neighborhood home Rihanna shares with hip-hop star A$AP Rocky and the couple’s three children. It was not immediately known whether A$AP Rocky or the couple’s children were home at the time. No injuries were reported.

The Los Angeles Police Department said a woman, who was identified Monday as 35-year-old Ivanna Ortiz, drove up to the property and fired between seven and nine rounds with what police described as an AR-15-style rifle. At least four rounds struck the house.
