Lady Gaga's stolen dogs returned safe and sound; robbers still at large

Toni Anne Barson/FilmMagicLady Gaga's two stolen French bulldogs have been found safe, the Los Angeles Police Department confirmed to ABC News.
The dogs, Gustav and Koji, were turned into the LAPD's Olympic Station, not Hollywood Division where they were taken, by a woman who found them, ABC News has learned. She is reportedly not involved.
The dogs were unharmed and reunited with Gaga's representatives. The perpetrators have not been caught and are still being searched for, according to police.
As previously reported, the singer's dog walker, Ryan Fischer, was out walking her three dogs when he was approached late Wednesday by two people who shot Fischer and took two of the dogs. The third, Asia, escaped and was later recovered.
Fischer was taken to a hospital for non-life-threatening injuries; he is currently stable and is expected to recover.
It's not clear the kidnappers knew they were Lady Gaga's dogs. There have been a number of thefts of French bulldogs in Los Angeles in recent months.
The pop superstar, who was not in the country at the time, had offered $500,000 as reward for the safe return of the dogs, no questions asked.

Lady Gaga prays for her stolen dogs' safe return; praises dog walker as a "hero"

Jamie McCarthy/Getty ImagesLady Gaga is taking to social media with her pleas for the safe return of her two French bulldogs stolen earlier this week.
“My beloved dogs Koji and Gustav were taken in Hollywood two nights ago,” she wrote on Friday, along with photos of the dogs. “My heart is sick and I am praying my family will be whole again with an act of kindness.”
She reiterated her reward of $500,000 for their safe return, encouraging anyone with information to email KojiandGustav@gmail.com.
“If you bought or found them unknowingly, the reward is the same,” she added.
Gaga, who was reportedly in Italy filming a movie when the dognapping occurred Wednesday night, also tweeted her praise for her dog walker, Ryan Fischer, who was shot during the robbery and is currently in stable condition.
“I continue to love you Ryan Fischer, you risked your life to fight for our family,” she wrote. “You’re forever a hero.”
Fischer's family issued a statement not long after saying, "As you know, our beloved Ryan was the victim of a horrible, violent crime on Wednesday evening in Los Angeles. Thankfully, Ryan is receiving extraordinary care in the hospital right now and his doctors expect him to make a full recovery."
They thanked all the healthcare workers caring Ryan and added their thanks to Lady Gaga who they said has "shown nothing but non-stop love and concern for Ryan and our family right from the outset."
"Ryan loves [Gustav] and Koji as much as Lady Gaga does; so we join in her plea for their safe return," the family said, concluding, "Thank you very much for your interest and support. At this time we kindly ask that you respect our family's privacy as we are focused on Ryan's recovery."

When meeting Katy Perry, Billie Eilish thought Orlando Bloom was just "some dude"

Billie: ABC/Eric McCandless; Katy & Orlando: Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagicHe may have starred in some of the biggest film franchises ever, but to Billie Eilish, Orlando Bloom was "just some dude Katy Perry met."
In her new documentary The World's a Little Blurry, streaming now, the future Grammy-winner is seen backstage at Coachella in 2019, as Katy comes by to say hi with Orlando in tow. Katy and Billie hug, and Katy introduces Orlando as "my fiancé." Orlando then hugs Billie and tells her how great her song "bad guy" is.
In the next scene, Billie's brother Finneas is shown imitating Orlando's accent, when Billie chimes in, "Who was that?"
"Orlando Bloom. He played Will Turner in f***ing Pirates of the Caribbean," explains Finneas.
"That guy? That was him? No way! Bring him back! I wanna meet him again," Billie exclaims. "He kissed me on the cheek!"
After checking out some pictures of Orlando as Will in the hit film franchise, Billie admits, "I did not know that was him. I thought that was just some dude Katy Perry met."
Orlando -- who also starred in the Oscar-winning The Lord of the Rings franchise -- eventually comes back and hugs Billie again.
This time, she fangirls out, gushing, "You don't even understand, my 9-year-old self, bro...you're a f***ing... I don't even know! Oh my Lord! Thank you for everything you do."
By the way, Katy also said she'd be there for Billie if the then-17-year-old star ever needed to talk because, Katy warned, "It's gonna be a wild ride for, like, 10 years."
The World's a Little Blurry is streaming now on Apple TV+.

Justin Bieber to release new album 'JUSTICE' on March 19

RBMG/Def Jam Recordings All those singles Justin Bieber has been releasing lately have all been leading up to this: a new album, JUSTICE, which will be released March 19.
Justin's sixth studio album will feature his three hit singles -- "Holy," "Lonely" and "Anyone" -- which are all in the top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100.
“In a time when there’s so much wrong with this broken planet, we all crave healing - and justice - for humanity,” says Justin, explaining the album title. “In creating this album, my goal is to make music that will provide comfort; to make songs that people can relate to, and connect to, so they feel less alone."
"Suffering, injustice and pain can leave people feeling helpless," he continues. "Music is a great way of reminding each other that we aren’t alone. Music can be a way to relate to one another and connect with one another."
"I know that I cannot simply solve injustice by making music, but I do know that if we all do our part by using our gifts to serve this planet, and each other, that we are that much closer to being united," Justin notes.
"This is me doing a small part. My part," he concludes. "I want to continue the conversation of what justice looks like so we can continue to heal.”
JUSTICE is the follow-up to Justin's album Changes, which came out just over a year ago. He'll perform at Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Awards 2021, live on Saturday, March 13.

Lady Gaga's dog walker is in stable condition, breathing on his own

James Devaney/GC ImagesWhile Lady Gaga is distraught over the dognapping of two of her beloved French bulldogs, she's also upset that her dog walker and friend, Ryan Fischer, was shot while the robbery took place. But People confirms that Ryan seems to be doing O.K. in the hospital.
Los Angeles Police Capt. Jonathan Tippet told People that Ryan, who was shot once in the chest, is in stable condition, and added that he "believes he will" make a full recovery. Tippett also told People that there are two suspects, both between the ages of 20 and 25, both of whom are at large. Because Ryan himself was not robbed, Tippett believes the suspects were only after the dogs.
Meanwhile, a friend and former client of Ryan's, tells People that Ryan texted him from the hospital and told him he was "breathing on his own now."
The friend, Dr. Fred Pescatore, describes Fischer as an "amazing" person, adding, "There's nothing negative about that man." He says Ryan is "just amazing with dogs," explaining, "They're like his children. He's very in tune with the dogs' needs. He would do anything for them, anything."
"This man deserves recognition. He was the one that was shot," Pescatore adds. "He was the one protecting her dogs. And not enough people are focusing on that."
As previously reported, Gaga is offering a $500,000 for the return of the dogs. Anyone with information on the case can email KojiandGustav@gmail.com.
