“Mayor of Kingstown” stars describe what to expect during the show’s upcoming season and working together for the first time
The stakes are high as season four of “Mayor of Kingstown” unfolds, Jeremy Renner revealed on “CBS Mornings” on Wednesday.
“It is a pretty intense show. … all the main storyline involves all of the players, the main players, in the show. So there are not a lot of side storylines that you have to kind of follow, so it keeps everything pretty intense for everybody on the show,” Renner said.
Renner plays Mike McLusky, whose brother is an incarcerated cop. This season, Edie Falco joins the cast to play Nina Hobbs, the new warden at Anchor Bay Prison.
“To come up against a brick wall like Nina Hobbs, the new warden in town, creates real real real problems for Mike throughout the entire season,” Renner said.
After recovering from an accident on New Year’s Day in 2023, Renner — who broke 38 bones and had to undergo multiple surgeries — said the crew on “Mayor of Kingstown” has been helpful to him as he returned to set.
“Everybody is very good about taking care of me,” he said.
Renner and Falco on working together
Falco, an Emmy-award winner and former star of “The Sopranos,” said she enjoys playing strong female characters like Hobbs.
“On more than one occasion, my agents have called me and said, ‘well the part was written for a man.’ … After I learned not to take that personally, I’ve come to really enjoy the place of power that a lot of these women stand in and do so with a great amount of confidence,” Falco said.
It’s the first time Renner and Falco have worked together.
“When you’re working opposite an actor, if you look in their eyes there’s part of them that’s always saying, ‘hi. Look at us. We’re on this show.’ … And there was none of that. He’s the guy,” Falco said of Renner. “And it makes the playground completely real for me.”
Renner said Falco is “tremendous” as his on-screen counterpart.
“First of all, also it’s a great character. It’s a really strong female character, which is amazing. Such a great adversary really and then there’s nobody better to fill those shoes.”
“Mayor of Kingstown” returns Sunday, Oct. 26 on Paramount+.

Kylie Jenner reunites with Travis Scott for their kids’ joint birthdays
Kylie Jenner reunited with her ex-boyfriend Travis Scott over the weekend to celebrate their kids’ back-to-back birthdays.
The SICKO MODE rapper went all out as he took charge of the birthday celebrations for Stormi, who turned eight years old on February 1, and Aire, who turns four the very next day.
Videos and photos from the birthday bash shared online showed a lavish fantasy land partly inspired by Travis’ Astroworld, with custom signs reading “Stormi World” and “Planet Aire” scattered throughout the venue. The proud dad even designed giant inflatable versions of his children’ s heads modeled after his iconic Astroworld mask at the venue’s entrance.
Inside the sprawling venue was a desert-themed fantasy land complete with full-scale carnival rides, including a pink roller rink and a diner. One sweet moment showed Stormi skating around an indoor roller rink while Travis stayed close, holding her hand and helping her keep her balance.
Kylie was also hands-on throughout the party, joining Travis to sing “Happy Birthday” to both kids as they stood in front of the elaborate setup.
Among the attendees was Kylie’s sister Khloe Kardashian, who shared snaps from the bash to her Instagram Stories.
The children’s grandmother, Kris Jenner, also took to Instagram to pay a special tribute. “Happy birthday to my precious Stormi and Aire! You are both loved beyond measure, and you make our world brighter every single day. Happy birthday my angels!” the matriarch wrote.
Notably missing from the festivities was Kylie’s current boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet, who did not appear in any photos or videos from the event.
Kylie and Travis, who dated on and off from 2017 until 2023, once again showed that when it comes to Stormi and Aire, they’re a united front.

Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan turn over a new leaf after decades-long feud
Paris Hilton says it’s all water under the bridge with Lindsay Lohan.
Appearing on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Thursday, January 29, the Simple Life alum revealed that she and her longtime rival have reconciled and even bonded over motherhood after years of public tension.
“We are planning to get the kids together,” Hilton, 44, shared. “I am so happy for her. She is glowing. We love being moms.”
Both women have entered a very different chapter of life since their headline-making party days, bonding over motherhood. Hilton shares son Phoenix and daughter London with husband Carter Reum, while Lohan welcomed son Luai with husband Bader Shammas. According to the reality TV star, becoming mothers helped put old drama into perspective.
Their feud famously dates back to 2006, when rumours swirled about a love triangle involving Greek shipping heir Stavros Niarchos. That same year, oil heir Brandon Davis insulted Lohan while out with Hilton, who was caught on camera laughing. Lohan later claimed Hilton hit her at a party, which Hilton strongly denied.
The jabs continued for years. In 2017, Hilton said Lohan “wasn’t invited” to the iconic “Holy Trinity” night with Britney Spears. And during a 2019 WWHL appearance, she called Lohan “lame” and “embarrassing.”
But by 2022, Hilton insisted there were “no bad vibes,” saying, “We’re not in high school.” She later revealed she reached out to congratulate Lohan on her engagement and even offered some mom-to-mom advice when the Parent Trap star announced her pregnancy in 2023.

Here’s why Pakistan decide to boycott India in T20 World Cup 2026
The federal government on Sunday allowed the Pakistan cricket team to participate in the Men’s ICC T20 World Cup 2026 but barred the Green Shirt from playing the February 15 match against India.
The development came following a meeting between Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman Mohsin Naqvi and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in the federal capital.
Sources familiar with the matter told Geo News that the ICC’s biased treatment of Bangladesh was the main reason behind the decision.
Tensions flared between the cricket boards of Bangladesh and India after Bangladesh’s star pacer Mustafizur Rahman was removed from the Indian Premier League (IPL) on the directions of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), sparking outrage in Dhaka.
Later, the BCB requested the ICC to shift their matches outside India, but the international cricket body rejected the plea. In view of BCB’s firm stance, the ICC replaced them with Scotland in the showpiece event, saying it was not feasible to change the schedule so close to the February 7 start of the tournament.
Referring to the government of Pakistan’s decision, the sources said that the decision aimed at expressing solidarity with Bangladesh.
“The Pakistan team has been instructed not to play the February 15 match against India as a protest,” the sources added.
India’s Jay Shah, who was elected unopposed as chairman of the sport’s world body in August 2024, has turned the ICC into “Indian Cricket Council” with his biased decision, said the sources.
“The principles of justice and equality have been shattered by biased decisions,” the government sources said, adding that double standards were being adopted while making decisions from the ICC platform.
In view of the prevailing situation, it was necessary to register the protest, the government sources added.
