Harvey Weinstein asks to leave Rikers due to “inhumane conditions”

The former movie mogul faces his new trial amid claims of medical negligence and freezing cells.

The producer who turned harassment into a film genre

Oh, the irony. Harvey Weinstein, the man who turned the halls of Hollywood into his own horror theme park, now claims that Rikers Island is too scary for his delicate constitution. The former movie mogul, an expert in producing other people’s nightmares, assures that his stay in the New York prison is a personal “horror movie”, with cancer, poorly administered medications and cells colder than the heart of a studio executive.

His lawyer, Imran H. Ansari, declared with dramatic solemnity that his client suffers from leukemia to sleep apnea (could it be that even his snoring is legally questionable?). But here’s the plot twist: although he was already treated at Bellevue Hospital, they returned him to Rikers. Reason? Probably the same reason his movies had unnecessary sequels: no one knows when to stop.

The defense: “He is innocent… of having decent conditions”

Weinstein’s legal team filed a lawsuit against the city, alleging “deplorable conditions.” Curious, coming from someone whose treatment of women made medieval dungeons look like luxury spas. Among their complaints: infections, dirty clothes and freezing temperatures. Wasn’t this the same guy who sent actresses to cold film sets in bikinis in the dead of winter? Life is cyclical, friends.

Meanwhile, his retrial for sexual assault moves forward in New York, with jurors who are surely more confused than a script rewritten 20 times. After the annulment of his conviction in 2024 (because, of course, what would justice be without a good *plot twist*?), the producer of Shakespeare in Love now faces another charge from 2006. In case anyone doubted that his filmography included unnecessary remakes.

The saddest thing? That his health does seem genuinely deteriorated. But in a Kafkaesque twist, even his physical suffering seems like a poorly written script: does the villain of this story really deserve compassion? The court will decide… after seeing the full footage.

New stage, new image

“Goodbye to the criticism that they were down to the ground hahaha, do you want to see the result?” he wrote.

The influencer reiterated that this aesthetic change was something she longed for. “You know how much I wanted this change,” he said, accompanying his words with emojis.

With this intervention, Ruiz closes one chapter and opens another, both personally and professionally. The decision, in his own words, goes beyond the physical and represents an internal transformation.

Abelito lends his voice to the villain of the new Minions movie

TikTok star Abelito voices the villain Goomi in the new Minions film.

From the most famous house to the world of dubbing

Content creator Abelito is experiencing an unstoppable moment. After coming in third place in “La Casa de los Famosos México”, starring in a series and now voicing the villain of the new Minions installment, his career does not stop. However, his mother makes sure he doesn’t lose the apartment.

“The reality show was a watershed in my life. I can’t lose my apartment, my mother talks to me every day to tell me that God comes first and not to lose my apartment, so how to do it (laughs). I’m from a town (in Zacatecas) where people greet each other by name,” she says.

Before the interview, the woman came out greeting everyone, proud that her son is still the same. “I think they are there because of their work, I don’t know who else is in dubbing, but if they are there it is because they do it well,” he said.

The challenge of giving life to a monster

Abelito, 25 years old, is just over 1.10 meters tall and weighs about 30 kilos. He rose to fame on TikTok during the pandemic. Now he plays Goomi, a green being who befriends the Minions but hides a dark objective for Earth.

In “Minions & Monsters”, which arrives in Mexico on July 1, he shares credits with Carlos Ballarta and journalist Alberto Lati.

“A word that was difficult for me to say was monsters, because I had to make sure that the N and S could be heard. I speak very fast, they have also told me that. Monsters I repeated it many times,” Abelito recalls.

This is the seventh film with the yellow characters since the franchise began 16 years ago with “Despicable Me”, which already has four installments.

Tom Holland disqualified in Spider-Man stunt contest

The actor was eliminated from the contest that he organized with Zendaya.

An infiltrator in the competition

As part of the promotion of Spider-Man: A New Day, which premieres on July 29, Tom Holland and Zendaya crashed a stunt contest for the spider hero. Without revealing his identity, Holland competed against content creators seeking the title of “Spider-Man’s Double.”

Between somersaults and web tosses, the actor demonstrated his skills. But the jury, headed by Zendaya and Spanish YouTuber Ibai Llanos, disqualified him. The reason: being the real Spider-Man, he could not be considered a double.

Reactions and virality

At the end, Holland revealed his face. The participants, fans of the Marvel character, were surprised and recreated the famous Spider-Man meme pointing at each other. The video, published just a day ago, has accumulated almost 4 million views.

The crossover between streamers and Hollywood stars generated waves on networks. Users celebrated the creativity of the promotional team and Holland’s naturalness in integrating without being detected.

The disqualification of the actor became a trend and added divided comments: some see it as a brilliant marketing move; others claim that the contest lost authenticity. However, the strategy achieved its objective: to maintain attention on the premiere.
