Jonathan Taylor Thomas—Randy Taylor from Home Improvement and the voice of young Simba—was arrested following a traffic stop in Westlake Village. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department alleges that JTT appeared intoxicated, interfered with the investigation and kicked a deputy while being detained. The case is being sent to the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office for possible filing.

Taylor Swift is expanding The Life of a Showgirl with four new songs: “Patient Zero,” “Cleveland!,” “Pink Clouding” and “Babylon.” Plus, the first preview of the “Patient Zero” music video reveals two major costars: Dakota Johnson and Colin Farrell. The full video premieres during Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards.

Then, new reporting reveals that detectives are attempting to trace the possible source of the drugs involved in Presley Gerber’s suspected overdose. His official cause and manner of death remain deferred pending toxicology results.

A newly released coroner’s report also provides additional details about Hayden Panettiere’s death, which has been ruled an accidental overdose involving fentanyl and other drugs. The investigation into where the fentanyl came from remains ongoing.
