Hayden Panettiere took to Instagram on Feb. 25 to share a message of support for the people of Ukraine. Her ex, Wladimir Klitschko, is currently preparing to fight for his home country if needed, so Russia’s invasion has deeply affected her like it has for the rest of the world.

Wladimir Klitschko, 45, is determined to protect his native country Ukraine from the wrath of Russian President Vladimir Putin. The former professional boxer, who was previously engaged to actress Hayden Panettiere, 32, condemned Russia’s attack on Ukraine in a passionate statement that he shared online February 24. “We will defend ourselves with all our might and fight for freedom and democracy. You can also act. Let not fear seize us; let’s not remain frozen,” he said. “Putin shoots at Ukrainian cities, but he aims at our hearts and, more importantly, at our minds. He wants to create doubt and confusion and thus inaction.”

The Guardian reports, when a member of the group (labelled as Moshtagh, his actual name redacted for safety) reached out to Wu in hopes of strengthening their international presence. But when the Taliban launched an offensive on Afghanistan in 2021, Moshtagh’s group made the snap decision to flee the nation’s capital of Kabul.Wu told The Guardian that such a decision was “based on complete fear”, noting that Moshtagh and his cohort were driven by an “overwhelming sense of survival” because “they felt so threatened by the Taliban based on their western practices”.She explained that Moshtagh pleaded for Wu to help them out: “He said, ‘I feel like you guys have an obligation to help us,’ and I was like, ‘What do you mean?’ And he said, ‘Well, you know, we’re all just hip-hop family.’ And … the more and more we spoke, the more and more I realised that much of what he was saying was true.”Wu – who runs the LA-based non-profit No Easy Props, which runs hip-hop classes and events for the city’s marginalised communities – said the exchange “awoke [her] thought process”.

Content warning: this article discusses allegations of sexual assault.Snoop Dogg has asked a federal judge to dismiss a sexual assault lawsuit brought against him earlier this month, claiming the allegations are “implausible and false”.In a new 17-page dismissal filed on Thursday (February 24) and obtained by Rolling Stone, the rapper (real name Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr.) has denied that he cornered an unidentified woman in a recording studio bathroom nearly nine years ago and forced her into a sex act.Snoop also claims that the allegations are too “threadbare” to support a claim under the federal sex trafficking statute listed in the complaint and too old to prosecute under state law.“Nothing remotely resembling plaintiff’s story about defendant Calvin Broadus ever happened. He vehemently denies ever engaging in any sex act with plaintiff or assaulting or battering her,” the new filing states.“She provides no allegations of any statement by defendant that he would help her career, and no allegations of any statement about how defendant might advance her career,” the filing continues.
