You are now free to move about the country… and other countries! For the first time in years, rapper 21 Savage is able to legally leave the United States and travel aboard. Back in 2019, the Grammy-winning rapper was taken into ICE custody after being busted for living in the United States illegally on an expired visa. He was also in possession of a gun during the arrest. At the time, an ICE spokesman said the United Kingdom-born music star came to the States in 2005 and simply never left.
As his work visa expired in 2006, he'd actually been illegally living in the States for 13 years. On Oct. 6, TMZ reported that Savage got a green card and is planning to join Drake in Canada for several concerts. But that night, the rapper was a no show. The outlet reported that he was denied entry to Canada by Canadian officials at the last moment, and Lil Baby took his place on stage. But it seems all of his immigration troubles were finally sorted by Oct. 7, when he finally took the stage with Drake in Toronto.

Aggressive intervention
Chris Hemsworth opened up in a new interview with Men's Health about what he's doing to lower his chances of developing Alzheimer's disease after learning on the 2022 National Geographic and Disney+ docuseries "Limitless with Chris Hemsworth" that he has two copies of the gene APOE e4, which makes his risk of developing the brain disorder eight to ten times higher than someone without the genes.
"Now, I'm incorporating more solitude into my life," said in the interview released Oct. 3. "I've always been pretty consistent with my exercise commitments, but lately I've really felt the importance of taking time for yourself without any outside voice or stimulation and making time for stillness."
He's also doing more mindfulness work. "I do a lot of meditation and breath work mostly during sauna and ice bath routines," he said.
The "Thor" franchise star has also prioritized getting more sleep." Try to stay off screens an hour before bed and read most nights definitely helps. In addition focusing on not being attached to every thought and be the observer to the noise when possible, just stepping back from the internal chatter," he added.
He's also shifted the way he works out over the last year. "I'm lifting [weights] less frequently than I was and I'm incorporating more cardio and endurance workouts," he said.

Jailbird
Former "Home Improvement" actor Zachery Ty Bryan, who's had a litany of arrests over the past three years, was recently behind bars again.
While his previous arrests and detainments have allegedly involved violence, that wasn't the case this time, despite how things might seem. In late September, Zachery was booked on two counts of fourth-degree felony assault, but the charges are apparently not new and the arrest was legitimate but also happened because of a technicality: He violated his release agreement in a domestic violence case.
TMZ reported that the troubled actor failed to charge his ankle monitor by mistake. (He's required to wear the monitor per the terms of his bond release from a July arrest.) Because of this, the star was taken into custody during a pre-trial court office appearance. The arrest didn't involve a judge. He was released from jail on Oct. 1.

Godly gal
Celebrity tattoo artist Kat Von D has disavowed witchcraft and is now devoting her life to Jesus.
On Oct. 3, the "LA Ink" alum revealed on Instagram that she recently got baptized — she even sharing a video of the religious ceremony. "Katherine von Drachenberg, upon your profession of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in obedience to his divine command, I baptize you, my sister, in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit," the pastor says in the video before dunking Kat in holy water.
The baptism comes a little over a year after Kat denounced witchcraft, which she previously practiced. The reality TV tattoo artist-turned-makeup mogul said she's "always found beauty in the macabre" but said she no longer has a relationship with this content.
Back on
Jimmie Allen and Alexis Gale have not only welcomed their third child together — they've decided to give their tortured relationship another go.
The reconciliation is stunning given the hell their relationship has been through this year. Back in April, the country singer and his wife of three years announced their separation. In the days that followed, it was revealed that he'd cheated on her with multiple women.
On top of that, Jimmie's former day-to-day manager filed a civil lawsuit against him for sexual battery, assault, false imprisonment, sex trafficking and emotional distress that allegedly occurred between 2020 and 2022. He's denied the claims, insisting it was consensual. He's countersued her as well as a second women who in June filed a lawsuit against Jimmie alleging he sexually assaulted her in 2022.
In May, after both he and his then-pregnant wife, a nurse, filed for divorce, the "Best Shot" singer publicly apologized to Alexis "for humiliating her with my affair. I'm embarrassed that my choices have brought shame on her. That's something that she did not deserve at all."
The mea culpa might have worked. On Oct. 4, Jimmie's rep told People magazine the divorce "was never fully seen through legally." The rep added, "They decided to work on things together and are still together."
Supportive dad
"Beverly Hills, 90210" star Brian Austin Green opened up about his openly gay eldest child, actor Kassius Marcil-Green, on an October podcast.
"I would get into these conservations with Kash where it was like I really wanted to understand the things that seemed so different to me at first," Brian explained of the son he shares with "General Hospital" alum Vanessa Marcil. "And then you realize, 'Oh, this isn't different at all.' It's just your choice of partner. It doesn't affect me at all."
Brian, whose comments came on the "Frosted Tips with Lance Bass" podcast, has long been supportive of his son's sexuality. He added, "And that's the thing I'm always trying to beat into people now — it does not affect you. Why do you care so much? And why are you trying to somehow bully your feelings and your opinion into something that literally does not affect you at all?"
Sold
Angela White — who's better known as Blac Chyna — is being forced to sell off many of her personal belongings to keep afloat, she says in court documents.
The former reality TV star revealed that she's made about $187,000 from selling off designer purses, clothes and shoes through an online consignment store. This seems to be the "Rob & Chyna" alum's only source of income at the moment since, according to a report from TMZ, sales from her cosmetics line have "plummeted."
In addition, the "Special Forces: World's Toughest Test" star recently quit OnlyFans, which seemed to bring in substantial income. "I will never go back on OnlyFans," she said of the controversial subscription-based website.
While speaking with "Entertainment Tonight," the star — who shares children with Rob Kardashian as well as rapper Tyga — explained, "As fast as [the money] comes, as fast it goes. And also, too, it comes with a lot of negativity, you know? My kids are getting older, they see all these things, and I'm just not going out like that."
Still healing
It's been three years since Melissa Etheridge lost her son to his opioid addiction, and she's still trying to get right.
"It's healing every day," she told Page Six on Oct. 1 of talking about her son in her new one-woman show "My Window" on Broadway. In it, she opens up about her life, including her son's death. Speaking about his untimely passing helps. "Every night I do this, I heal a little bit more because I'm talking about how my son would want me happy and I can believe that every night," she said.
In offering advice to other parents who've lost children, she said, "Guilt and shame are nothing to hold on to. They have no place in your life. Your happiness matters, your health matters. So let that go and continue living your life."
