Kelsea Ballerini and Noah Kahan aren’t crying cowboys over this Grammys loss.
After the “Cowboys Cry Too” singers lost the Grammy for Best Country Duo/Group Performance over Beyoncé and Miley Cyrus’ “II Most Wanted,” ahead of the 2025 ceremony they proved they weren’t letting the Recording Academy’s pick of the Cowboy Carter track get the best of them.
Kelsea, all dressed up for the 67th ceremony at Crypto.com Arena, cheekily filmed herself as she asked Noah in a Feb. 2 Instagram Story, “What does it feel like to lose three awards for the same song?”
To which Noah replied, “You weirdly start to kind of like it. I’m on a losing high right now—woohoo!”
The “Stick Season” singer’s response prompted Kelsea—who has been dating Chase Stokes since 2023—to throw her head back and laugh as the duo made their way to the red carpet. And she added to her fans, “See you at the Grammys!” (See everyone on the red carpet here.)
Before signing off, the “Miss Me More” singer gave her fans a thumbs up and a big smile, proving she also wasn’t too pressed about losing the category.
Kelsea Ballerini and Noah Kahan recently took to social media to express their reactions after losing to Beyoncé at a music awards show.
Despite being nominated in the same category as Queen Bey, the duo fell short of taking home the coveted award. However, both artists showed grace and humility in defeat, congratulating Beyoncé on her well-deserved win.
Kelsea Ballerini tweeted, “Losing to Beyoncé is a pretty good consolation prize if you ask me. Congrats Queen B! #musicawards #beyonce #gracefulloser”
Noah Kahan also shared his thoughts on Instagram, writing, “It’s an honor just to be nominated alongside such incredible talent. Congrats to Beyoncé on the win, well-deserved! #musicawards #beyonce #grateful”
Fans of both Kelsea Ballerini and Noah Kahan commended them for their gracious reactions and showed their support for the artists. Despite not winning, they have proven that they are true class acts in the music industry.

Syracuse snaps a three-game losing streak by putting together one of its most complete outings of the season in a win at California on Saturday night at Haas Pavilion in Berkeley, California.
After leading by 13 points late in regulation, Cal cut the margin to 67-61 with a little more than a minute remaining, forcing the Orange to earn the win at the free throw line down the stretch.
The Orange weathered a couple of big Cal scoring runs in the second half to rebuild a double-digit lead and now catches a red-eye flight home on Sunday morning for a short turnaround before hosting No. 2 Duke on Wednesday night in the JMA Wireless Dome.
The Orange jumped out to a 9-0 lead to start the game and put the defensive clamps on Cal by bringing out a 2-3 zone. The defensive move helped limit Cal to less than 20% shooting from the floor in the first half and less than 30% for the game. Syracuse led by as many as 18 points about midway through the second half.
3:17 remaining: Syracuse 62, California 52
If the result holds, Syracuse will head home with a 10-12 record to face the lone unbeaten team in ACC play that is coming off a dominant 17-point victory against its arch rival (Duke led North Carolina by 30 points on Saturday).
FYI: The Blue Devils have not lost since before Thanksgiving.
Blacksher rattles home a 3, and the Bears are on an 11-0 run over the last 4-plus minutes.
Cal hanging around and is in the bonus, but the Bears commit a bad turnover on a lazy, misguided lob pass that Lampkin easily intercepts.
7:37 remaining: Syracuse 58, California 46
Good contested shot by McLeod at the rim to turn away Cal. The 7-foot-4 center has two points, three rebounds and a block in nine minutes of action.
Cal is still shooting just 26% from the floor for the game and is 4-for-25 from 3. The Orange is shooting 50% from the field and 7-for-12 (58%) from 3.
11:54 remaining: Syracuse 56, California 39
Syracuse turns it over out of the under-16 TV timeout. Starling curls off a screen and hits a short jumper from the elbow.
The Orange answers with a burst of a 7-0 run, including a 3 by Carlos to push the lead back to 14.
Starling then uses a screen up top by Lampkin to get downhill and finishes at the rim.
Starling has a team high 14 points but heads to the bench with just more than 12 minutes remaining in the second half.
Carlos gets the break going off a long missed 3 and finishes through contact for a three-point play.
15:43 remaining: Syracuse 45, California 36
Elijah Moore picks up where he left off in the first half with an early 3 before Cal rattles off seven straight points punctuated by a thunderous dunk in transition.
Jyare Davis with a sloppy entry pass to Lampkin and turns it over out of a timeout. It turns into an and-one opportunity for Cal at the other end. The Bears have trimmed the lead to 10 and have as many field goals in the first three minutes of the second half as they did in the first 20 minutes of the game.
Wilkinson hits a step-back 3 over Moore and all you can do is tip your cap to the shot-making ability of the freshman.
Starling answers with a much-needed bucket to snap a 10-0 Cal run.
Syracuse has opened up a 17-point halftime lead behind an active, versatile defense, holding Cal to less than 20% shooting from the field.
Nine of the 10 Orange men who have checked into the game have scored, with JJ Starling and Lucas Taylor pacing the Orange with seven points apiece. Elijah Moore (six points) and Jyare Davis (six points; five rebounds) also aided the Orange effort in the first half.
Syracuse has turned to its 2-3 zone at moments in the first half, evening subbing in seldom-used backup center Naheem McLeod for four first-half minutes.
The zone and SU’s man-to-man defense has completely flummoxed Cal, holding the Bears to 4-for-23 shooting, including 2-for-14 from 3.
Good second-effort by Davis to follow his miss off the glass and finish underneath.
Lampkin then sticks back a miss by Majstorovic.
Cal has 13 of its 23 points at the free throw line and it’s shooting sub-20% from the field.
Starling, who had missed his last six shots, ends the half with a 3.
3:46 remaining: Syracuse 33, California 17
Cal’s 7:15 field goal drought is, mercifully, over.
Taylor hits a 3 at the other end. Cal is 1-for-11 from beyond the arc. Taylor looks toward Moore on a back-door cut but Moore doesn’t appear to look for the pass and it’s a turnover for the Orange.
Davis absorbs contact down low for a lay-in. Then, off a turnover, Lampkin kicks it out to Moore for a corner 3 to open up a 14-point lead.
Syracuse now has its largest lead of the game off a short hook in the paint by Lampkin.
7:52 remaining: Syracuse 23, California 10
McLeod corrals a catch and finishes in the paint. Then, Carlos picks up his dribble in the lane but uses some crafty footwork to get a shot up and draw a foul. Syracuse leads, 18-9 as Cal has started 2-for-11 from the field.
Bell, who’s shooting 50% over his last eight games (17-for-34), scores five straight points, to open up a double-digit lead. The junior grew up about 30 minutes outside Berkeley.
The Bears are now 2-for-13 from the field and settling for a bunch of bad shots.
11:54 remaining: Syracuse 14, California 9
Davis is working hard on the glass to keep a possession alive and earns a trip to the free throw line. The Orange enters the game next-to-last in the 18-team league in free throw shooting and 3-point shooting.
Jovan Blacksher, an Oakland native who transferred in from Grand Canyon, hits two free throws, and the Orange has an 11-4 lead five minutes into the game.
Chris Bell, Jaquan Carlos, Petar Majstorovic and Kyle Cuffe Jr. await at the scorer’s table and will check in with 13:01 remaining in the half.
Carlos, coming off a perfect shooting performance at Stanford, hits the side of the backboard on his first perimeter shot of the evening.
Naheem McLeod with some rare minutes here in the first half.
Cal is 2-for-10 from the field, while the Orange is 5-for-14.
15:48 remaining: Syracuse 9, California 2
Elijah Moore hits a 3 to open up a 9-0 start before freshman Jeremiah Wilkinson hits a midrange jumper.
Moore tries an extra pass to Jyare Davis underneath the basket instead of taking it up off the feed from Lampkin and turns it over.
17:34 remaining: Syracuse 6, California 0
Syracuse opens up with a familiar starting five. JJ Starling gets the Orange on the board first with a strong take to the basket.
Cal starts 0-for-3 from 3. Starling then uses a screen from Eddie Lampkin at the top of the key and gets to the rack for a second lay-up before Lucas Taylor hits a pop shot in the paint.
Update 9:55 p.m.: Sissoko will be available; Stojakovic is out, per Cal.
Welcome to February basketball, when bubble talk becomes more ubiquitous and teams attempt to peak by March.
The Orange has just 10 regular-season games remaining in what has been among its worst on record in the last 55 years.
Syracuse (9-12, 3-7 ACC) is barreling toward just its second losing season since 1968-69, when SU finished 9-16 in Roy Danforth’s first season.
The Golden Bears (11-10, 4-6) are five-point home favorites, but Saturday’s game represents a rare opportunity for a road win.
SU is 1-8 in games away from the JMA Wireless Dome, including an 0-3 mark on a neutral court in Brooklyn.
The Orange has to fly back to the East Coast late Saturday night and has a short turnaround before hosting No. 2 Duke on Wednesday night, a scheduling truth that drew criticism from assistant coach Allen Griffin earlier this week during a local radio interview.
Pregame updates on two Cal starters will be worth monitoring. Andrej Stojakovic, a 6-7 forward, and Mady Sissoko, a 6-9 center, both missed its 76-65 loss at SMU on Wednesday.
Syracuse has been playing without injured five-star freshman forward Donnie Freeman, who is sidelined indefinitely with a foot issue.
Syracuse basketball stays poised in 2nd half to snap 3-game losing streak at Cal: Final score, recap
In a thrilling matchup against Cal, Syracuse basketball showed their resilience and determination as they snapped a 3-game losing streak with a hard-fought victory on the road. The final score of the game was 78-72 in favor of the Orange.
The first half was a back-and-forth affair, with both teams trading baskets and playing tough defense. Cal managed to take a slim lead going into halftime, but Syracuse came out firing on all cylinders in the second half.
Led by star guard Buddy Boeheim, who finished with a game-high 25 points, the Orange turned up the intensity on both ends of the court. Their defense tightened up, forcing turnovers and contesting shots, while their offense found its rhythm, knocking down key shots and getting to the free-throw line.
Despite a late surge from Cal, Syracuse stayed poised and composed, making crucial plays down the stretch to secure the much-needed win. The victory was a testament to the team’s resilience and ability to overcome adversity.
With this win, Syracuse improves to 5-3 on the season and looks to build on this momentum as they head into conference play. The Orange will look to continue their winning ways and make a push for the postseason.

Actor Milo Ventimiglia and his wife Jarah Mariano have welcomed their first child together.
Mariano took to Instagram on Friday and shared the good news just weeks after she and the “This is Us” actor lost their home earlier this month in the Los Angeles wildfires.
“Houseless, never homeless,” Mariano wrote in the caption of a post, which featured her baby’s feet and her dog’s paw.
“Welcome back Ke’ala Coral Ventimiglia 1.23.25,” she continued. “Jan 7th my family & I evacuated from the Palisades Fire. We lost our home that we were living in & everything we own, as well as our home under construction that we were about to move into.”
Mariano said that she was 38 weeks pregnant and revealed that evacuating from the Palisades fire was the second time she’s had to evacuate in recent weeks. She said she previously had to evacuate from the Franklin Fire in Malibu in December.
“I take it as a gift that I was able to essentially do a practice run for what was inevitably to come,” she said. “I’m also forever grateful that we were able to evacuate from the Palisades Fire in the daytime, when we could feel more prepared & not caught completely off guard in the middle of the night, for example.”
Mariano continued, “My family & I are together, happy, healthy & safe, which is truly all that matters. We are deeply grateful to all of the heroes who help battle fires, as well as care for everyone affected by the aftermath for years to come.”
“This will be an extended process of rebuilding and grieving for many, but we are feeling optimistic & inspired to welcome all of the exciting newness of our fresh start!” she added.
She ended her post by saying thank you to those who have supported her and Ventimiglia during this time including her friends, family, birthing team and hospital staff.

She added, “Gentle reminder to all, to please allow us this time & space to nest with our newborn in such a delicate phase. We already have everything we need in abundance & will be back around with updates in our own time.”
After losing their home in the Palisades fire, Ventimiglia reflected on the loss and told CBS Evening News at the time, “You start thinking about all the memories in different parts of the house and whatnot, and then you see your neighbors’ houses and everything kind of around, and your heart just breaks.”
“I think there’s a kind of shock moment where you’re going, ‘Oh, this is real. This is happening,’” he said of watching their home burn via security cameras before turning the footage off. “We kind of accepted the loss.”
Ventimiglia said he and his family will “make do,” adding that his “wife and baby and dog are most important.”
Ventimiglia and Mariano tied the knot in October 2023.
Milo Ventimiglia, best known for his role as Jack Pearson on the hit TV show This Is Us, and his longtime girlfriend, model Jarah Mariano, have welcomed their first child together. The couple’s joy comes just months after they lost their home in the devastating Los Angeles wildfires.
Despite the hardship of losing their home, Milo and Jarah are overjoyed to welcome their new addition to the family. The couple has been together for several years and have always talked about starting a family together.
Fans of the couple have been flooding social media with congratulatory messages and well wishes for the new parents. Many have praised Milo and Jarah for their resilience and strength in the face of adversity.
We wish Milo, Jarah, and their new bundle of joy all the happiness in the world as they embark on this new chapter in their lives. Congratulations to the happy family! #MiloVentimiglia #JarahMariano #NewBabyJoy #ThisIsUsFamily

In the heartfelt post, Mariano reflected on the last few weeks, from losing their home in the devastating Los Angeles wildfires to becoming first-time parents.
“Houseless, never homeless. Welcome back Ke’ala Coral Ventimiglia 1.23.25,” she wrote in the caption. “Jan 7th my family & I evacuated from the Palisades Fire.

“Gentle reminder to all, to please allow us this time & space to nest with our newborn in such a delicate phase. We already have everything we need in abundance & will be back around with updates in our own time. Sending you Aloha + Light always, Jarah Milo Ke’a Duke,” she concluded her post.
Earlier this month, Ventimiglia told CBS News that their Malibu home burned down after the Palisades Fire swept through their neighborhood. At the time, the This Is Us and Gilmore Girls actor said they had the nursery all ready to go for their baby, making the devastation even harder to grasp.
He added, “You start thinking about all the memories in different parts of the house and whatnot, and then you see your neighbors’ houses and everything kind of around, and your heart just breaks.”

For the third time in as many years, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were forced to search for a new offensive coordinator. This time, however, they are reportedly promoting from within.
The Buccaneers are promoting former pass-game coordinator Josh Grizzard to offensive coordinator, according to NFL Media. Grizzard replaces Liam Coen, who accepted the Jacksonville Jaguars head coaching job last week. The 34-year-old Grizzard just wrapped up his first season with the Buccaneers, and is reportedly highly regarded in the building.
2025 NFL free agency: Potential top players available at every position, including Sam Darnold, Tee Higgins
Garrett Podell
Grizzard graduated from Yale in 2012, and began his coaching career in New Haven as a student assistant. He then joined the Duke Blue Devils as a grad assistant, and after four seasons, landed with the Miami Dolphins as an offensive quality control coach. Grizzard also coached the wide receivers down in Miami before being hired away by Tampa Bay.
The 10-7 Buccaneers won the NFC South in 2024 for a fourth consecutive season. The offense ranked No. 3 in total yards (399.5 yards per game), and No. 4 in points per game (29.5), while quarterback Baker Mayfield became just the third quarterback to ever throw for 4,500 yards and 40 touchdowns while completing 70% of his passes. He put up career-high numbers across the board with 4,500 passing yards and 41 touchdowns, but did tie the league high with 16 interceptions.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have reportedly promoted Josh Grizzard to offensive coordinator following the departure of Liam Coen to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Grizzard, who previously served as the team’s quarterbacks coach, is set to take on a larger role in guiding the Buccaneers’ high-powered offense.
With quarterback Tom Brady at the helm and a host of talented playmakers at his disposal, Grizzard will have plenty to work with as he steps into his new role. The Buccaneers are coming off a Super Bowl victory and will look to maintain their offensive prowess under Grizzard’s leadership.
While losing Coen to the Jaguars is certainly a blow, the Buccaneers are confident that Grizzard is more than capable of stepping up and continuing to push their offense to new heights. Fans will surely be eager to see how Grizzard puts his stamp on the team’s offense in the upcoming season.

Hollywood actor Josh Gad fears he’s taking the easy way out when it comes to his weight loss.
The “Frozen” star, who voiced the snowman Olaf in the hit Disney movie, confessed he lost 40 pounds on the “miracle drug,” GLP-1.
“I’m on a GLP-1 … this is the first time I’ve opened up about this,” Gad shared on Dax Shepard’s “Armchair Expert” podcast.
Jelly Roll, Jessica Simpson, Kathy Bates Showed Off Dramatic 100-Pound Weight Loss
“It has suppressed, in a great way, that noise. … When I wake up, I feel hunger pains — and so much of that is psychological, right? And what this does is it takes away that signal.”
GLP-1 medications, which include Ozempic, mainly help manage blood sugar (glucose) levels in people with Type 2 diabetes. Some GLP-1 agonists can also help treat obesity, according to the Cleveland Clinic.

Gad, 43, said he previously took another medication that caused him “diverticulitis,” — an inflammation of small pockets that can develop on the inside of your colon.
He said his GLP-1 medication was working “incredibly” for him, until he had to switch.
The “Beauty and the Beast” star also admitted that the weight-loss drug has skewed his perspective on his health.

“I’m figuring out this new one, and it is life-changing, but it also doesn’t negate the fact that it can’t be in the place of having a healthy relationship with food,” he added. “It can’t be in the place of having a healthy relationship with exercise. … I’m having my own journey with it. Sometimes I feel like I’m cheating myself by doing this.”
Gad went on to say that he feared his identity would shift after he shed 40 pounds.
“I’ve always been the funny fat guy. Can I be the funny, skinny guy?” he asked. “Can I be the hot leading man? I don’t know if I can be those things. I know I can be those things, I don’t know that people would accept me as those things… and that’s always really hard. We get typecast.”

He said his main focus is being present for his children.
“I’m not as worried about [my career] because my primary goal is, I want to be there for my kids,” Gad remarked. “Everything else is bulls—.”
Gad shares two young children with his wife, Ida Darvish. Their daughters are named Isabella Eve and Ava Tanya.

He’s known for his bold fashion choices and Elton John didn’t disappoint as he sat front row at the Valentino Haute Couture show during Paris Fashion Week on Wednesday.
The legendary musician, 77, put on a stylish display as he opted for a bold blue pair of glasses as he beamed in snaps.
The Rocketman hitmaker wore a black and white polka dot shirt underneath a smart black blazer.
He looked well as he accessorised the look with white and pink pearl necklace and bright red trainers as he sat beside his husband David Furnish.
It comes after the singer opened up about losing his eyesight after an infection and revealed that as a result he can’t see, read or watch anything.
David, 62, looked smart in a grey checked suit and pale blue shirt as the pair prepared to watch the show.

Also in attendance was Kate Moss‘ ex boyfriend Count Nikolai Von Bismarck, however the supermodel was nowhere to be seen.
It was revealed in December that the model, 50, is said to have finally called it quits with Nikolai, 37, after nine years together.
Seated next to American writer Derek Blasberg, Nikolai kept it casual in a pale pink and blue striped shirt and black blazer.
Nick Cave and his wife Susie also posed up a storm together as the musician looked rather dapper in a black suit, tie and white shirt.
Meanwhile fashion designer Susie, 58, made sure all eyes were on her in black wrap dress adorned with sparkly purple and green thistles.
Completing the look with black lace gloves and matching tights, she added a quirky slip on green shoe and silver sparkly bow clip.
Annie Lennox’s daughter Tali opted for a plunging cream floaty blouse and matching skirt as she flashed a hint of cleavage in the ensemble.
The model, 31, completed the look with long black plaited pigtails as she struck a serious expression on the front row.
Elton’s outing comes after he celebrated his ninth Official Number 1 album with his album Diamonds.

A chart staple since its release in 2017, the 77-year-old music legend’s career-spanning hits collection finally surged to the summit in its 374th week on chart.
The record was bolstered by limited edition releases across brand-new formats, including cassette for the first time.
The Pinner-born star’s latest compilation debuted at Number 5 in its opening week back in 2017 and went on to peak at Number 2.
It hasn’t left the Official Albums Chart Top 100 since its release, and far and away boasts more weeks on chart than any other Elton LP.
Moreover, Diamonds claims the most consecutive weeks inside the Official Albums Chart Top 40 ever and claims the most weeks inside the Top 40 before reaching that coveted Number 1 spot.
Diamonds now joins Don’t Shoot Me I’m Only The Piano Player (1973), Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (1973), Caribou (1974), Elton John’s Greatest Hits (1974), Sleeping With The Past (1989), The Very Best Of Elton John (1990), collaborative PNAU record Good Morning To The Night (2012) and The Lockdown Sessions (2021) in Elton’s tally of UK chart-toppers.
It also comes amid his health struggles with his eyesight, which he first lifted the lid on in September 2024.
Elton appeared on Good Morning America alongside his husband David in December to chat with Robin Roberts about his life, career and the personal challenges featured in his new documentary.
Speaking in the interview, the music legend explained: ‘I unfortunately lost my eyesight in my right eye in July because I had an infection in the South of France and it’s been four months now since I haven’t been able to see.
Elton’s outing comes after he celebrated his ninth Official Number 1 album with his album Diamonds

‘And my left eye is not the greatest, so. There’s hope and encouragement that it will be okay and we’re taking an intiative to try and get it better. At the moment that’s really what we’re concentrating on.’
When asked to elaborate on his current health to put fans worried at ease, Sir Elton quipped: ‘David and I always have our blood tests every six months in Los Angeles. Our health has never been better.
‘It’s never fortunate for anything like this to happen. I can’t see anything, I can’t read anything, I can’t watch anything.’
The hitmaker, who played his final shows last summer, revealed his eyesight issues in September.
He took to his Instagram with a lengthy post, explaining how he spent the past few months ‘recuperating at home.’
Elton wrote: ‘Over the summer, I’ve been dealing with a severe eye infection that has unfortunately left me with only limited vision in one eye.
‘I am healing, but it’s an extremely slow process and it will take some time before sight returns to the impacted eye.
‘I am so grateful for the excellent team of doctors and nurses and my family, who have taken such good care of me over the last several weeks.’
He took to his Instagram with a lengthy post, explaining how he spent the past few months ‘recuperating at home’
Elton concluded: ‘I have been quietly spending the summer recuperating at home, and am feeling positive about the progress I have made in my healing and recovery thus far.’
And his health battles have undermined any new music from the star.
Elsewhere in the interview, he said: ‘I can do something like this, but going into the studio and recording I don’t know, because I can’t see a lyric for a start.
‘We’re taking an initiative to try and get it better, but at the moment that’s really what we’re concentrating on.’

“I stepped onto the grounds and fell to my knees and I wailed. I had not cried like that since I was 15 years old, and I was told that my father had just died. I remember looking in the mirror back then with my whole life ahead of me thinking, ‘What’s my life gonna be like without him?’”

“I stepped onto the grounds and fell to my knees and I wailed. I had not cried like that since I was 15 years old, and I was told that my father had just died.”

“Even in your worst pain folks, it’s okay and it’s important to laugh,” he said. “When I held that rock in my hands, this was the only thing that was left, I thought it was a message from 15-year-old me, saying ‘It’s gonna be okay and it will be okay.’ “

The Traitors has exposed a potentially losing game. Everyone wants to play the titular role when they enter the castle, but when fear and paranoia overcome the goal of defeating the Faithfuls, it’s a dangerous game. Boston Rob Mariano set the tone when he set his sights on fellow Traitor Bob the Drag Queen. With Carolyn Wiger and Danielle Reyes shocked and infuriated that Boston Rob took down Bob the Drag Queen, they knew they could be next. How can you trust someone who turns on the team? Boston Rob sees being a Traitor as a solo game. The women did not. Until they realized their futures were in trouble.
Since Cirie Fields won the game as a traitor, every Traitor desires a solo victory. Unfortunately, it’s a losing strategy that gives more power to the Faithful. With strategic masterminds wearing the cloaks this season, they’re having a hard time putting the success of their previous shows aside, and it might end up being the downfall.
This season, host Alan Cumming selected three bold personalities to act as the Traitors to start the game. Danielle is considered one of the best players never to win Big Brother. Carolyn defied the odds of her eccentric personality to make Final Tribal Council on Survivor. Bob the Drag Queen is the beyond fabulous winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race. When Boston Rob was added to the mix, the dynamic quartet had four personalities who were all the stars of their own stories. That was not going to work for victory in the end.
Bob the Drag Queen’s downfall was a sense of paranoia from his fellow Traitor. Rob took him out in a way that ended up putting a target on his back. Not only from his fellow Traitors but also from the keen players who figured out the theory that the only way to be 100% positive someone else was a Traitor is if they were one themselves. And so, as Boston Rob’s name was on the chopping block, Danielle hoped to play the long con of attempting to remove Rob as he would be detrimental to her game. But her strategy to do so was the baffling and illogical idea of first eliminating Carolyn. From an outside perspective, it had no semblance of potential success.
Cut to the mission. In a game of riddles, when a player was correct, they would earn money for the prize pot and the ability to give someone the chance to earn the shield. The logical plan is to give it to yourself, but Danielle used a very curious strategy in the mission by not choosing herself to earn a shield. Knowing red flags were waving, she put out Carolyn’s name to whoever would listen to minimize the target on her own back. With the news reaching Carolyn via Dylan, Carolyn was ready to turn on both Danielle and Boston Rob. Something she was weary of doing.

Housewives are out of their element on ‘The Traitors.’
All three remaining traitors’ names are suspects, and there is zero trust among them because Rob began playing a dangerously selfish game. His overpowering hand in the turret has put them all in jeopardy. Carolyn was sitting pretty and now must watch her back. Danielle’s game of overcompensating doesn’t work when she’s in a league of equally brilliant reality stars. They should be leaning on one another, but they’re not. And it’s going to ruin their chance of winning. If they don’t fix their rift, their messy moves will be snuffed out by the actual Traitor hunters at the Roundtable.
In a game of numbers, you must dwindle the Faithfuls down before turning on your own. You must make the Faithfuls distrust one another to further your game. When there is dissension in the ranks, it’s easy to manipulate the fear. It’s something that Boston Rob should know how to do, as that was his game during Survivor: Redemption Island. Danielle is a brilliant strategic player, but something about this game has gotten the best of her. She forgot the game she was playing, and to fix it, she has to admit defeat and ask for help from her fellow Traitors. But that’s near impossible now since she’s openly targeted them.
To fix a faltering game, they must let bygones be bygones and discuss their mistakes. They must unite and remember the game is to get to the end. And by they, I mean two out of the three. Most likely Danielle and Carolyn. There will be a time to use their numbers to their advantage, but right now, they are allowing the Faithful to band together. If the women want to win, they must eliminate Boston Rob together and recruit an unlikely Faithful to their merry band of Traitors. And that person is Dylan Efron. He’ll be the perfect shield, especially if his idol, Boston Rob, is out of the game. There is still a path forward to victory. The chances are just quite slim.
The Traitors airs on Thursdays on Peacock. All episodes are available to stream on Peacock in the U.S.

In a world filled with betrayal and deceit, the idea of traitors hunting traitors may seem like a necessary and even just pursuit. However, the reality is that this cycle of betrayal only perpetuates further betrayal and chaos.
When individuals or groups seek revenge by targeting those who have betrayed them, they are only sinking deeper into a never-ending cycle of violence and mistrust. By focusing on hunting down traitors, they are diverting their energy and resources away from building trust and forging genuine connections.
Furthermore, the act of hunting down traitors often leads to collateral damage, innocent people getting caught in the crossfire of vendettas and grudges. This only serves to further destabilize communities and sow seeds of discord.
Instead of getting caught up in a cycle of vengeance, it is important to break the cycle of betrayal by fostering transparency, communication, and reconciliation. Only through forgiveness and understanding can true healing and peace be achieved.
In conclusion, traitors hunting traitors is a losing game that only leads to more pain and suffering. It is time to break the cycle of betrayal and work towards building a more united and harmonious society.
