According to TMZ, Jason Momoa's Apple+ series "Chief of War" is making some enemies of its own on Hawaii's big island. Apparently, the series leased a farmer's market from the property owner, and in doing so, that shut down the area to the vendors who usually lease it for the first two Saturdays in December. While the vendors aren't out any money over the leasing the area those two days, they are out the business they would have brought in. About 76 vendors are shut down, and they're pointing fingers at Jason. They hope to be reimbursed by the studio, but so far, no word on that.

Collin Gosselin, the now 18-year old child of "Jon & Kate Plus 8" fame, is breaking his silence on his mom Kate Gosselin in an interview with Entertainment Tonight. Kate had sent Collin away as a child to an institution to help him deal with his alleged behavioral issues. Collin wrote to his father Jon Gosselin, who was already divorced from Kate, for help. Jon filed for full custody of Collin at that point, and Collin said Kate didn't even bother to show up to the court date. Collin said that after being in the institution, "I didn't have a relationship with her," adding, "Even before [being] there, I don't think we had much of a relationship and I think that just kept tearing it even more down."
Leonardo DiCaprio almost lost out on "Titanic" because he didn't want to audition, according to director James Cameron. In a GQ interview, James said Leo thought he was just coming in to meet Kate Winslet, but when he found out he'd be reading lines with her, he said, "You mean I'm reading? Oh, I don't read." James told him to read it or go, and Leo begrudgingly agreed to do it. But once James yelled "action," Leo instantly "turned into Jack," and that's when James knew he was the right actor to play the King of the World.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is trying to right some old wrongs. He shared a video on social media documenting a recent visit to a 7-Eleven in Hawaii where he then bought out the store's entire supply of Snickers bars and left them for any hungry customers to take for free. Why? Dwayne said when he was 14-years-old, he used to go to that very 7-Eleven every day and steal a King-sized Snickers on his way to the gym. He didn't do it with bad intent but simply because, "I was broke as hell. The same clerk was there every day and always just turned her head and never busted me." On top of the free Snickers, he paid for everyone's purchases in the store, saying, "We can't change the past and some of the dumb stuff we may have done. But every once in a while we can add a little redeeming grace note to that situation — and maybe put a big smile on some stranger's faces."

While Will has spent the last several months apologizing, he's also trying to move forward and is begging the public to give his new film, "Emancipation," a chance. He said in an interview with Fox that even though some people may not be ready to forgive him, "My deepest concern is my team has done what I think is the greatest work of (their) entire careers" and that his "deepest hope is that my actions don't penalize my team."

Now, Diana has said over $100,000 is about to be distributed through her charity to the families of the victims of a plane crash who never received their settlements because of Tom's misdeeds. The reason Diana wants to help them is because "I know the pain of losing a loved one under tragic circumstances. I thank those who opened their hearts and joined me in this fundraising effort and hope that our efforts can provide some comfort to the victims' families."
Adele just found out another famous singer was at her recent show in Vegas, and she's very glad she didn't know about it at the time. Shania Twain attended one of Adele's performances, and she shared a pic on her Instagram Story of Adele in concert. When Adele found out she wrote, "Thank god you had a hat on… I would have self combusted had I seen it was you!! I adore you, I can't believe you came to my show." Shania responded, "Thank god we didn't make eye contact, all I can think of is the reaction of all those fans to @adele combusting halfway through the show." With months to go, there are plenty of chances for other celebrities to surprise Adele at one of her shows - here's hoping none of those encounters end up with combustion.
