Today, a Judge partially granted Swift's motion for summary judgment, however, the case will still receive a jury trial. The Judge threw out Mueller's claims of slander per se and slander per quod, as the statues on those claims had expired, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
"Having reviewed these evidentiary materials, the Court finds that the central and genuine dispute remains," wrote U.S. District Court Judge William Martinez. "Certain witnesses' testimony tends to corroborate Swift's version of events, and Mueller points to other evidence that he argues shows inconsistencies in Swift's story." Read more

There have been reports saying she hired powerhouse attorney Laura Wasser, but La La made it clear she's keeping things amicable and staying focused on her work.
La La was spotted on Mother's Day with her son and Carmelo. The paparazzi caught the family dining at a sushi restaurant. La La smiled, "Clearly it wasn't a private Mother's Day, but it was fun."
How does she deal with being followed by paps on special occasions like that? She revealed, "You kind of get used to it, and what can you do? Like my mom says, 'Worry when people don't care about you.'"
When her son Kiyan, 10, asked why photographers were following him everywhere recently, she told him, "It's getting hot outside and they're trying to get summer fashions for the magazines, and he followed up and said, 'Mom I'm wearing a sweat suit, that's not summer fashion.' I kind of try make it fun for him so he doesn't view it as a negative thing."
Along with Kiyan, La La's own mother is her rock. "My mom has common sense� I'm coming at her with all this complicated stuff, and she'll just give me the most simple answer� and it always makes sense." She added, "I have a great support system of friends and family, but when it gets down to the nitty gritty, I'm like, 'Mom.'"
Anthony also explained the message behind her Instagram on the night of the Met Ball, when she posted "Unbreakable." It was La La's first public appearance since the split. "I wanted people to know that no matter what life throws at you, you got to be strong, you have to be fearless, things are gonna happen, life is amazing and guess what life sucks sometimes too, you have to be unbreakable, especially to have to go and walk that carpet alone, that's not the easiest thing in the world." The 37-year-old feels that she's representing women out there, saying, "Everyone goes through stuff."
La La just returned from Los Angeles, where she hung out with mama-to-be Beyonc� at her big Carter Push Party bash with other celebs like Michelle Williams, Serena Williams, and Kelly Rowland. She gushed, "Oh, I had a great time it was so much fun hanging out with friends. It was a beautiful day in L.A., so much fun." She pointed out that Bey is doing well, adding, "She's beautiful, stunning, absolutely beautiful."
Anthony isn't letting her divorce proceedings slow her down! She has a lot going on in her professional life... she just wrapped a movie, "Emergency Furlough," her hit show "Power" is coming back, she's producing the show "Goal Diggers," her first book, "The Love Playbook," is becoming a movie with the help of Queen Latifiah, and she's writing another book.
What does she like to do when she has down time? She responded, "When I relax, I like to do nothing, because I'm always doing something. I just want to sit home and do absolutely nothing." Read the original report

"Unbreakable" is a video short that Nina Themelis and I directed and produced where we asked women to answer the question "What makes you unbreakable?" We came together and began working on a video concept to accompany my song "Unbreakable" and the idea was simple enough but quite honestly, we didn't expect it to be as big as it turned out. What we thought was going to be an evening with friends and maybe some friends of friends turned into women from all over the place - some from an hour and a half away- showing up at the studio wanting to tell their stories. We even had people sending in submissions from all over the world. It was one of the most moving experiences to date for me.
The idea of having to write anything down, let alone what makes you unbreakable sounds a lot easier than it is. The written word is so strong: it's permanent, bold, unmistakable. On top of that, what they had to write needed to be phrased in a positive way. It's very easy, especially in today's society, to turn to negative language or to maybe use some level of self-deprecation to buffer talking about yourself. It's difficult to stand up and state something in the positive form. And that is what also makes it so powerful. What was so incredibly moving to me was seeing these strangers not even hesitate to support each other no matter what was written. There were times where we cheered; there were times where we were just speechless at the victories of these women. That is our true nature.
There was one woman in particular that stood out to me whose husband had been killed in a hit and run accident. After his death, she worked hard with law enforcement and played a pinnacle role in the development and passing of the "move over" law. Not only was her strength so inspiring but her story was proof that one person can truly make a difference. As women, it is our duty, and I believe in our circuitry, to accompany each other down the road of life, even if it's just for a few miles. We are like silk threads, weaving in and out of each other's lives. Individually we may be a single thread but when we interlock in complex ways, a woven tapestry is created. This quilt is a lot harder to tear than that one single thread. We are unbreakable when we feel connected to each other. I would say that everyone walked away from the experience a lot stronger because they felt understood, loved, and supported.
While the concept of "Unbreakable: Our Story" isn't unique, Nina and I believed it was still necessary. Sometimes it's not about being the first or only to do something, but it's about revisiting and reinforcing it, allowing others to share their experiences. There is a great responsibility in telling our stories because at least one person is going to be inspired by the victory you're sharing. And being an inspiration to someone isn't anything that you can control or opt out of; it is a gift and it's just life.
Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen and watch for yourself
