Marilyn Manson's sexual assault case by former assistant reinstated under new California law A previously dismissed sexual assault case against Marilyn Manson, filed by former assistant Ashley Walters, was revived Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court under a new California law extending the statute of limitations for certain sexual abuse claims. Judge Steve Cochran granted Walters’ motion for reconsideration, vacating his December 2025 ruling that had dismissed the case and allowing it to proceed toward trial.

 Taylor Swift receives first Songwriters Hall of Fame nomination in debut year eligible

Taylor Swift has earned her first nomination for the Songwriters Hall of Fame in her first year of eligibility, potentially making her the first Starlight Award recipient to advance to full membership.

Swift became eligible 20 years after her debut single "Tim McGraw" dropped in June 2006, meeting the criteria for consideration for the 2026 induction ceremony. She previously received the Hal David Starlight Award in 2010, an honor recognizing promising songwriters established in 2004, and could now make history by moving from that recognition to full Hall of Fame status.

The 2026 nominees include a diverse mix of pop, hip-hop, folk, and rock artists. Performing songwriter nominees alongside Swift include Kenny Loggins, LL Cool J, Pink, Sarah McLachlan, David Byrne of Talking Heads, members of The Go-Go’s, Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings of The Guess Who, Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley of Kiss, Richard Carpenter, Harry Wayne Casey of KC and the Sunshine Band, and Boz Scaggs.

Non-performing songwriter nominees feature Pete Bellotte, Swedish pop producer Andreas Carlsson, Steve Kipner, Patrick Leonard, Terry Britten and Graham Lyle, Walter Afanasieff, Jeffrey Steele, Bob McDill, Kenny Nolan, Martin Page, Vini Poncia, Tom Snow, Christopher “Tricky” Stewart, and Larry Weiss.

Eligible voting members have until Dec. 4 to select up to three nominees per category, with the top three vote-getters in each category to be inducted. The 2026 inductees will be announced early next year and celebrated at the Songwriters Hall of Fame Induction & Awards Gala in New York City.

Since its founding in 1969, the Hall of Fame has honored artists including Elton John and Bernie Taupin, Brian Wilson, Bruce Springsteen, Carole King, Paul Simon, Billy Joel, Lionel Richie, and Phil Collins. The 2025 class included George Clinton, The Doobie Brothers, Ashley Gorley, Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins, Mike Love of The Beach Boys, and Tony Macaulay.
