Stephen Amell Goes 'Wild' In Court After Losing Battle Against Animal Rescue

Arrow actor Stephen Amell reportedly went "wild" in court after losing his lawsuit against an animal rescue. A judge ruled that Amell and his wife Cassandra Jean were "not likely to prevail" at a trial against Rescues Rock, an animal rescue that the couple was trying to have moved from its Laurel Canyon location.

A source told Page Six that The Flash actor was "yelling" following the verdict. Another source said he was "not pleased," and that he "left the courtroom and was glaring at the Rescues Rock group."

Amell and Jean sued Rescues Rock in September, claiming that the defendants, Kristen Stavola and Jeremy Gardiner, were running a "large illegal animal kennel operation." They also alleged that "canines bark loudly at all hours of the night and day, continuously waking the Amells, their newborn child and eight-year old daughter."

Court documents state, "In addition, the RRI Defendants do not properly sanitize their residential real properties or clean up substantial animal waste, resulting in overpowering stench and odors emanating from the properties and onto the Amells' property."

However, the documents also state, "As recently as September 21, 2022 the City of Los Angeles Animal Service Department conducted an inspection of the premises without incident, citation, or findings of any unlawful activity whatsoever."

James Corden 'Inadvertently' Steals One Of Ricky Gervais' Jokes

James Corden is making headlines again. On The Late Late Show Monday (October 31st), Corden told a joke about Elon Musk taking over Twitter that was almost identical to one Ricky Gervais made in 2018.

"When you see Elon Musk talk about Twitter, he does this thing where he goes, ‘It's the town square,'" Corden said. "But it isn't, because if someone puts up a poster in a town square that says ‘guitar lessons available,' you don't get people in the town going: ‘I don't wanna play the guitar!' But that sign wasn't for you, it was for somebody else — you don't have to get mad about all of it."

In Gervais' Netflix special Humanity, he says of Twitter: "… It's like going into a town square, and seeing a big notice board that says, ‘Notice: Guitar lessons,' and going: ‘I don't fucking want guitar lessons!' … Fine! It's not for you, then. Just walk away, don't worry about it."

In response to this, Gervais wrote in a since-deleted tweet, "The bit about the town square advert for guitar lessons is brilliant." Later he said he "started to feel sorry for Corden," and added, "I reckon one of the writers ‘came up with it' for him. I doubt he would knowingly just copy such a famous stand up routine word for word like that."

Corden acknowledged the flub on Twitter Tuesday (November 1st): "Inadvertently told a brilliant Ricky Gervais joke on the show last night, obviously not knowing it came from him. It's brilliant, because it's a Ricky Gervais joke. You can watch all Ricky's excellent specials on Netflix."

Obviously, the good news is, it's a very amicable situation and I'm really focused on two things, taking care of my family and certainly my children and, secondly, doing the best job I can to win football games," he said.

Brady continued, "So, that's what professionals do. You focus at work when it's time to work, and then when you come home, you focus on the priorities that are at home."

MICHAEL J. FOX AND TRACY POLLAN COMMENT ON BEING ‘EMPTY NESTERS:' Michael J. Fox and Tracy Pollan spoke with Entertainment Tonight at the A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To Cure Parkinson's Gala in New York City Sunday (October 30th) about their lives as "empty nesters." Fox said, "It's an empty nest, but it's not really an empty nest 'cause they're all back tonight. But we all get together enough that we're not heartbroken." Pollan added, "Yeah, we're empty nesters. Well, it's not as empty as you would think when you have four. There's usually somebody home so there's like a little straggler, usually. But it's fun! We enjoy the stragglers."
