Bonnie Blue Announces Pregnancy in Viral Video – Weeks After Unprotected Sex with 400 Men in 'Breeding Mission' Stunt!

Image
Controversial UK adult content creator Bonnie Blue (real name Tia Billinger) has shocked fans by announcing she's pregnant, just weeks after her highly publicized "breeding mission" where she claimed unprotected sex with around 400 men. In a YouTube video posted February 22, 2026, Bonnie shared feeling sick during a Tenerife holiday—nausea, migraines, fatigue—leading to a home pregnancy test. She declared: "Definitely pregnant... like fully pregnant." A follow-up ultrasound (featuring a doctor in a ski mask) confirmed early pregnancy, with timing aligning to the stunt. She had promoted the event as fertility-timed, with tested participants but no protection. The news has sparked intense backlash: critics call it reckless and irresponsible in the adult industry, while some see it as rage-bait or a stunt. Fellow creator Sophie Rain called it "so saddening" and suggested a serious conversation. Online reactions are divided—some question if it's real,...

Image
Shreya Dhanwanthary will be seen in an important role in the forthcoming Taapsee Pannu-Tahir Raj Bhasin starrer Looop Lapeta . She becomes a household name recently after both her series Scam 1992 and The Family Man became runaway hits. The makers were looking for a popular and strong actor to match up to Taapsee and Tahir (who play Savi and Satya respectively), and Shreya, who has worked with Ellipsis previously, was the instant choice for the part of Julia in the new-age millennial film. "There were many reasons for me to take up the film. The part offered to me was so delicious I couldn’t say no. I took my first steps with Tanuj and Atul from Ellipsis. The title is so loopy. And because I am always itching to try something new and crazy, which is what Looop Lapeta is! I've watched the original! Boy, Franka Potente can run!" says Shreya Dhanwanthary.

He is now talking to three digital streaming companies and he will select the best deal." A trade guy shares, "Blind will be Sonam's debut on OTT.

Dongri to Dubai, Farhan Akhtar's series on Dawood Ibrahim, to resume shooting after monsoon?

https://ift.tt/3hdO5fG Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani’s production venture Dongri To Dubai will chronicle the life of underworld don Dawood Ibrahim and adapted from Hussain Zaidi’s book "Dongri to Dubai: Six Decades" of the Mumbai Mafia, has been constantly hitting the roadblock since the time the shooting began. Featuring Avinash Tiwary, Kay Kay Menon, Jitin Gulati, Amyra Dastur, and Kritika Kamra and directed by Shujaat Saudagar, the show went on the floor just before the pandemic wreaked havoc. In mid-May 2020 the show’s set at Madh island Mumbai was demolished as it was unused during the lockdown period. The makers finally reconstructed the set in January 2021, seven months after they pulled it down due to a pandemic. But in March, the director tested positive for Coronavirus forcing the entire cast and crew to go under isolation. It is now heard that the shooting will begin only after the monsoons.

No OTT for Vijay Deverakonda’s Hindi debut

Image
https://ift.tt/3jsQJkk There is a buzz in Bollywood’s corridors that Karan Johar and Dharma Productions are negotiating with a major OTT platform for the streaming rights of  Liger , Vijay Deverekonda’s Bollywood debut film. False! A source very close to the development told me. “There is no way Vijay’s debut will go digital. Karan Johar has made the Telugu star a promise that his Bollywood debut would be no less than spectacular. Liger  would release only in theatres and on the same level and volume of theatres and screens as Akshay Kumar’s  Sooryavanshi ,” a source close to Karan Johar informs me. It’s not as though Karan Johar is opposed to digital releases. “He is all for it. But content for OTT from Dharma would be very different from the big-screen projects. So no, Liger won’t be released on the streaming platforms although the amount being offered by the digital platform is what a Shah Rukh Khan or Salman Khan film would normally get.” In Liger, Deverakond...

Bellbottom can be another Rs. 100 crore grosser for Akshay Kumar, feels trade; but terms and conditions apply

Image
https://ift.tt/3w71Xxy The release of the much awaited film, Bellbottom , is less than a month away. Two weeks ago, the makers of the Akshay Kumar starrer announced that the action thriller would release in cinemas on July 27. The announcement happened at a time when the Covid-19 cases were steadily reducing. The Maharashtra government had announced that those cities and districts that fall under Level 1 and Level 2 will be permitted to open cinemas. Other states too seemed to be relaxing restrictions. Hence, it was expected that almost everything will open up by July 27. Sadly, in the last 10 days, the news surrounding the Delta Plus variant has made the governments cautious. The Maharashtra government has done away with Level 1 and Level 2 and reintroduced certain curbs. The trade, industry and fans are now wondering if enough cinemas would be open by July 27 to release Bellbottom . Possible box office outcome of Bellbottom We asked trade experts what they feel about its potenti...
