part in a bi-coastal drug ring.The hip-hop star — whose real name is Willie Junior Maxwell II — and five others were accused of driving to Long Island about six times in the spring of 2020 and buying kilograms of cocaine that was then sold in New York and New Jersey.The Paterson, NJ, native was personally accused of dealing 25 kilograms of the drug in the Garden State.The 31-year-old “Trap Queen” rapper pleaded guilty in August to one count of conspiracy to possess and distribute more than 500 grams of cocaine and faced a minimum of five years and a maximum of 40 years behind bars for the crime.Central Islip federal Judge Joanna Seybert handed down the sentence.Last week, prosecutors recommended that Maxwell — who has been locked up since August — receive from seven years and three months to nine years behind bars, claiming he was a “large-scale narcotics trafficker” who “continues to use his fame, sizable platform and influence to glamorize the drug trade.”The feds cited as an example his breakout hit “Trap Queen,” which Maxwell wrote about an ex-girlfriend who helped him peddle drugs in Paterson.Maxwell’s lawyer, Elizabeth Macedonia, said her client should be sentenced to the minimum, claiming he’s taken “full responsibility for his crimes.” The lawyer said Maxwell was motivated to start dealing drugs so that he could continue to provide for his family and friends — including his eight children — after his concert revenues dried up because of the pandemic.Maxwell was arrested on Oct. 29, 2021, and had been free on $500,000 bond until he allegedly violated the conditions of his release by threatening someone on a FaceTime call with a gun on Dec.

Why ‘Black Bird’ co-stars Paul Walter Hauser and Taron Egerton were ‘ready to tear each other apart’

Paul Walter Hauser (“Richard Jewell”) is also a movie buff — so it’s no surprise that he describes his Emmy-worthy turn as “Black Bird” serial killer Larry Hall in cinematic terms — including Hall’s “Vincent D’Onofrio in ‘Full Metal Jacket’ stare.”“I’d say for my process … is that if I treated [the role] some other way it takes the humanity out of it and I’m kind of leaning into this tendency to overact,” Hauser, 35, told The Post. “So rather than be like, ‘Wow, I’m playing a serial killer so I better get ready’ … [Hall] was a human before he was a murderer, before he was a rapist, so you don’t want to play a killer like a killer.

Scary reason Hilarie Burton hid feet in ‘One Tree Hill’ sex scenes

“Drama Queens” podcast that she was “uncomfortable” when filming sex scenes that showed off her feet.Why? Because the former MTV VJ would often receive prison mail from jailers who were obsessed with her toes.Burton referenced the 2005 Season 2 episode, “Somewhere a Clock Is Ticking,” which features her character Peyton Sawyer having relations with her beau Jake Jagielski (Bryan Greenberg).“There was a couple dudes in particular that were like, ‘I’m gonna cut your feet off and put them in my refrigerator,'” the “Walking Dead” actress told hosts and “OTH” costars, Sophia Bush and Bethany Joy Lenz.She added that the letters she got were “very specific” in nature and she also began obtaining these so-called love notes when started working for MTV in the early 2000s.She continued, “And I had a thing about my feet on TV. I would always try to, like, hide my feet because I was just like, ‘I don’t want them to think I’m baiting them,’ you know?”During filming for the episode, Burton said the director, Billy Dickson, desired to shoot the intimate scene from an angle that showed “our feet and like our legs rubbing together” with the camera “coming up our bodies.” However, Burton thought the direction was “way too adult” for a teen show about high schoolers.She decided to listen to Dickson and positioned herself for the shot because “it’s so much harder to say ‘no’ to someone who you like and respect than it is to say it to a total stranger who’s just coming in to direct for 10 days.”“Back then, it was on film and you just had to trust what was going on on the monitor was what you asked for,” Burton said.
