Philadelphia native Quinta Brunson is receiving a hero’s welcome as she returns to her hometown for a heartfelt celebration of her achievements and contributions to the city.

The honor recognizes Brunson’s creative accomplishments and her role in uplifting public education through her hit series, which is inspired by her own school experiences.
The festivities will also feature the unveiling of a new mural titled “Blooming Futures,” a collaboration between Brunson, Mural Arts Philadelphia, and local artist Athena Scott. Wrapping around the school building, the vibrant artwork depicts students as blossoming plants nurtured by their teachers—an allegory for growth and mentorship. The mural, which includes real students and staff like Principal Dr. Torrence Rothmiller, symbolizes Brunson’s deep gratitude to the city that shaped her. “I am truly honored,” Brunson said in a statement. “This city shaped me, and now I get to give back with a mural that celebrates all it gave me.”

While refunds are currently being processed, no official reason has been disclosed for the cancellations.

For now, the remaining tour dates are still listed as active, but with these abrupt changes, fans worldwide are left hoping no more cities are pulled from the lineup.

Summer Walker has confirmed that she and rapper Rico Recklezz have ended their relationship. The “Still Over It” singer subtly addressed her single status on Instagram, initially reposting a cryptic meme about preserving femininity, followed by a nod to Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies” lyrics. She later clarified her status in a Story, writing, “Yes I’m single but don’t be weird now y’all,” and added that although she still loves Rico, their worlds are just too different. “That’s my pumkin for life,” she said, expressing no hard feelings and asking fans to move on respectfully.
The announcement quickly sparked reactions online, with fans weighing in on the short-lived romance. Some criticized Walker’s dating history, while others speculated about her next potential partner, especially after she was seen in the studio with Playboi Carti. However, Walker swiftly shut down rumors, stating that Carti was simply helping with her album and that she is not looking to date. “I find more peace being alone,” she wrote, urging for a more mature approach to breakups. “Let’s normalize moving on without mess… no disrespect. No hard feelings. No bad mouthing each other.”

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has added another gem to his already extravagant car collection, unveiling a stunning yellow Ferrari valued at £320,000. The 24-year-old Norwegian was seen leaving training in the flashy new ride, bringing the total value of his luxury car fleet to an eye-watering £8 million. Haaland, who recently returned to the pitch after a spell out with injury, now owns seven high-end vehicles, including a £4 million Bugatti and a £2.7 million Mercedes AMG One, making him one of the most automotive-obsessed stars in football.
In addition to his newest acquisition, the prolific forward boasts a £250,000 Mercedes Maybach, a £130,000 Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe AMG, and a £300,000 Rolls Royce Cullinan. He previously owned a Ferrari 812 Superfast, reinforcing his affinity for the Italian marque. Despite making a quiet return in a goalless draw against Southampton, Haaland continues to make noise off the pitch with his taste for the finer things in life. As Manchester City shifts their attention to the upcoming FA Cup final against Crystal Palace, fans will be watching to see if the star striker’s flair extends to silverware as well as supercars.
