Model and Rhodes founder Hailey Bieber has made a significant contribution to the memorial fund for the late Eric Dane, donating $20,000 to a GoFundMe campaign established to support the actor’s family and ALS research. The donation, made public on February 23, 2026, comes just days after the Grey’s Anatomy and Euphoria star passed away at the age of 53 following a private battle with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.

The fundraiser was organized by close friends of the Dane family to assist with final expenses and to fulfill the actor’s final wish of establishing a legacy scholarship for his two daughters, Billie Beatrice and Georgia Geraldine. Bieber’s contribution was noticed by fans late Sunday night, listed under her name on the platform’s top donors list.

Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, the breakout star of MTV’s Jersey Shore, has revealed she is battling stage 1 cervical cancer. The 38-year-old reality television icon and entrepreneur shared the news with her millions of followers on February 23, 2026, during an emotional episode of her podcast, It’s Happening with Snooki & Joey.

Polizzi explained that the diagnosis came after a routine gynecological exam led to a follow-up biopsy. While the news was a significant shock to her and her family, she emphasized that the cancer was detected in its earliest stages. “I’m terrified, but I’m also lucky,” Polizzi told her listeners. “If I hadn’t gone in for my yearly checkup, we wouldn’t have caught it this early. It’s stage 1, which means it’s treatable, and we’re getting ahead of it right now.”

The mother of three (Lorenzo, Giovanna, and Angelo) stated that her primary focus is her health and her children. She used her platform to urge other women, particularly those who may have delayed medical appointments during busy periods of life, to prioritize their screenings and Pap smears. “As moms, we always put ourselves last,” she said. “I’m telling you now, don’t do that. Go to your appointments. This literally saved my life.”
