Jon Jones posted several messages on X with some of them discussing his potential next fight. ‘Bones’ has been in Russia spending time with Khamzat Chimaev and Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov. The former UFC heavyweight and light heavyweight champion enjoyed his time in the country and posted several clips of his activities there. ‘Bones’ was taken down by Chimaev and he shot a lot of guns in Russia, but there was also time for him to discuss his next fight. Jones has been pushing for a clash against current UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira. The pair have gone back and forth regarding their desire to face off at the UFC White House event next year. Jones has been part of the main event in each of his UFC appearances in the last 15 years. However, he was willing to give up the main event slot if he fought Pereira at the White House with no title on the line. A fan asked him about this and Jones replied with one word: “Absolutely!” Check out Jon Jones’ reply to the fan below: Jones’ last UFC card where he wasn’t the main event or fought for a title was against Ryan Bader. This fight took place at UFC 126 in February 2011. Dana White unsure about Jon Jones fighting at the UFC White House While Jon Jones continues to push for a fight at the White House, UFC president Dana White isn’t too sure about this. White is still upset with Jones over the American’s decision to turn down a fight with current UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall. White claimed that Jones had signed a deal before he decided not to go ahead with the brawl. Speaking on the FLAGRANT podcast, the UFC president opened up about this situation: “I haven’t said yes or no to anybody yet, but I can’t put Jon Jones in a position where he can. I had a deal with him to fight Tom Aspinall, we had a deal and he said, ‘I am not going to do it.’” Jones has since apologized to White for his actions. No fights for the White House event have been confirmed with White planning for the card in February 2026.

How Swizz Beatz Is Taking Off With Surprising New Career Move
While Jon & Kate Plus 8 alum Kate Gosselin lamented that much of her savings went toward paying lawyers in her battle with ex-husband Jon Gosselin, evidence suggests she’s enjoyed her return to nursing.
“I am an RN, I work in PEDs home health care,” Kate detailed in an August 2025 TikTok. “I work with one family currently. The patients already know my name and some things about me, so before I come into their home, they know who I am. And I imagine they already know me.”
What she knows, though, is that helping others is quite fulfilling. “It’s actually been a really rewarding and fun job,” Kate continued. “To come in and relieve a family of their medically challenged child so that they can spend time with their other kids and do other things.”
For Drew Barrymore, a day of work has never been missed. Though her current gig helming *The Drew Barrymore Show* fills her days now, when the child star found herself emancipated from mom Jaid Barrymore at age 14, she scrambled to pay the bills.
Noting her friend worked at a coffee shop in the Valley, the actress shared in her 2015 memoir *Wildflower* that she had to find something closer to their rental because she didn’t have a driver’s license.
“It was the start of the 1990s, and coffeehouses were where everyone hung out,” she detailed of working at L.A. hot spot The Living Room. “People poured out onto the street every night.”
Unfortunately, she continued, “I wasn’t great at my job. I wasn’t really great at anything. I had only done two things: acted and had wild life experiences.”
She served up the tea on one tense experience in her book: “I could tell my boss, who had hired me on the novel idea of having a washed-up former child actor behind the counter, was patient with all my learning curves, but was also irritated with me,” she wrote, revealing how he walked in while she was doing the dishes and said, very sharply and exasperatedly, “Don’t use the abrasive side of the brush! All the pastry cases are getting scratched and foggy, and you can’t see what’s inside!”
**Lifeguard on Duty!**
When *Stranger Things*’ Noah Schnapp isn’t battling supernatural beings in the Upside Down, he spends his time saving others in another way.
In a 2022 interview with *Flaunt* magazine, the actor revealed he had a part-time job as a lifeguard at his local pool during the summer. “It’s kind of a ‘just for fun thing,’” he explained. “I’ve kind of grown up with a normal life and normal friends and stuff outside of *Stranger Things*, so it’s kind of kept me grounded.”
In the late ’90s and early ’00s, Erik von Detten captured the hearts of teens everywhere thanks to his roles in *Escape to Witch Mountain*, *Brink!*, and *The Princess Diaries*. But after his last acting credit in 2010, he shifted focus from Hollywood to other pursuits.
Finally, reflecting on a significant personal milestone, an aspiring nurse shared on Instagram in 2020, “Today is #WorldHealthDay. It is also the day I went from a volunteer, then a student nurse, and now an RN resident. I just hope to live up to all of the amazing healthcare providers on the front lines now as I get ready to join them.”
These diverse stories highlight how celebrities and former stars have embraced everyday roles—whether nursing, lifeguarding, or working behind a coffee counter—finding fulfillment and purpose beyond the spotlight.
