*The celebrity news cycle is never slow, and May 12, 2026, delivered three major stories that have fans talking.

From a prison sentence for a man who stole Beyoncé’s unreleased music to Jamie Foxx expecting a baby with his girlfriend, and Sheryl Underwood defending The Rock after a controversial roast joke, here’s everything you need to know.

Man Who Stole Beyoncé’s Unreleased Music Pleads Guilty, Gets 2 Years in Prison

Kelvin Evans, 40, pleaded guilty in Fulton County Superior Court in Atlanta on May 12, 2026, to charges including entering an automobile with intent to commit theft and criminal trespass. The case stems from July 2025, during Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter tour stop in Atlanta. Evans broke into a rental Jeep Wagoneer belonging to one of her choreographers and dancers.

Inside, he stole hard drives containing unreleased music, footage, set lists, laptops, and other valuable items. Police tracked the stolen devices using location pings, which built a strong case against him. Evans had previously rejected a 5-year plea deal and pleaded not guilty earlier this year, with a trial set for May 11. Instead, he now faces 2 years in prison with no parole, followed by 3 years of probation.

Not all items were recovered, but fans celebrated the outcome, viewing the sentence as necessary protection for Beyoncé’s unreleased creative work. The case highlights how seriously the legal system treats theft of intellectual property and personal effects from touring artists.

Jamie Foxx Expecting Baby with Girlfriend Alyce Huckstepp

Jamie Foxx, 58, is expecting his third child — his first with girlfriend Alyce Huckstepp, who is reportedly in her early 30s. The news broke on May 12 (2026) and was later confirmed by People and other outlets.

The couple has had an on-and-off relationship since 2022. They reconciled after a brief split in early 2025 and are now “several months along” in the pregnancy. Foxx is already father to daughters Corinne Foxx, 32, and Anelise Bishop, 17. No details have been released yet about the due date or the baby’s gender.

Social media has been flooded with congratulatory messages for the Oscar-winning actor and musician. Fans are eager to see how Foxx balances fatherhood again while continuing his busy career in film, music, and comedy.

Sheryl Underwood Defends The Rock After He Drops R-Word at Kevin Hart Roast

During Netflix’s “The Roast of Kevin Hart,” filmed live at the Kia Forum and now streaming, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson used the r-word (retard) in a joke targeting Draymond Green. The moment sparked immediate discussion, but fellow roaster Sheryl Underwood came to his defense.

Speaking with TMZ, Underwood explained that roast comedy follows different rules. It is about pushing boundaries among people who love and respect each other. She emphasized that “freedom of speech is alive and well” in that format and that the live audience understood the context completely. The roast also featured heavy hitters like Tom Brady, Katt Williams, Pete Davidson, and host Shane Gillis. Critics are calling it one of the most unfiltered celebrity roasts in recent memory.

Underwood’s defense of The Rock has itself become a talking point, with some applauding her nuanced take on comedy formats while others argue certain words should never be used regardless of context.

All three stories dropped or updated within the last 24 hours — proof that the celebrity world never takes a day off. Whether it’s courtroom justice, growing families, or boundary-pushing comedy, there is never a dull moment. Keep checking back for more updates as these stories develop.
