It's April 26th. Welcome to Entertainment and Celebrity News today, powered by AI and packed with headlines. Angel restrops some real talk on Michelle Obama's podcast, saying she'd straight up take a fine over dealing with post-game media duties. She feels the press has been rough on her, and she'd rather pay up than feel cornered in those sessions. This comes right after the WNBA's new collective bargaining agreement kicked in, locking in higher salaries, but also mandating media availability. After gangs, vines were skipping and hit $10,000, but Reese is over it. Co-host Craig Robinson, Michelle's brother and ex-college baller, backed her up, calling out sports media for manufacturing drama like its reality, TV. He prays how she's handled the spotlight with total class. Fans and players get it social media hate hits different now. Reese shared how she stays sane by shutting off her phone at home and ignoring the noise. She used to clap back online, but maturity taught her its all fake, and now she can't

even hit the grocery store without hassle. This echo stuff Obama said last year about the Reese Caitlyn Clark rivalry, where hate floods phones nonstop. She noted athletes got to stay engaged for their bag, making the toxicity tougher across sports. Media's turn ESPN into real housewives vibes, all yelling and beef, just like Obama called in. Holding her lane amid the chaos, keeps inspiring the next gen to tune out the trash.
