Shocking: Erika Kirk Says “No” to Brock Purdy $60 Million Deal to Promote and Produce Documentary About Charlie Kirk’s Legacy
In an era where Hollywood deals are measured in millions, one woman just stunned the entire entertainment world with a single word: “No.”
Erika Kirk, widow of the late Charlie Kirk, has just turned down a jaw-dropping $60 million contract from The Walt Disney Company — a deal that would have promoted and produced a high-profile documentary about her husband’s life and legacy.
For many, it seemed like a golden opportunity: money, prestige, global exposure. But for Erika, the choice was clear. “$60 million? Keep it!” she told reporters in a moment that’s already sending shockwaves across social media. “My husband is dead, let him rest in peace.”
💔 Loyalty Over Luxury
Erika’s refusal wasn’t about rejecting success. It was about protecting something she believes no amount of money can buy: dignity, loyalty, and truth. In an emotional interview, she explained:
“I don’t care about money. I hope people will always support him, this city, and our family. America gave me a chance, and I will give it all back. I am part of something bigger than a paycheck.”
Her words, raw and unapologetic, struck a chord with millions. Fans flooded online platforms praising her courage, calling her decision “a masterclass in integrity in an age of greed.”

Industry insiders are reeling. For decades, Disney has dominated cultural storytelling, often turning lives into blockbuster narratives. But Erika Kirk’s rejection marks a rare moment where the glitz of Hollywood was overpowered by a widow’s simple demand: respect.
Across America, commentators are framing her decision as more than personal — as a symbolic stand against the commodification of grief. One headline captured it best: “When Love Beats Money.”
🌎 A Legacy Beyond the Screen
Charlie Kirk’s life may never appear in a Disney documentary, but thanks to Erika, his legacy remains exactly where she wants it — in the hearts of those who loved him, in the community he inspired, and in the faith she refuses to compromise.
For Erika Kirk, this isn’t the end of a deal. It’s the beginning of a movement. A reminder that even in a world obsessed with wealth and fame, there are still people willing to say no to millions and yes to meaning.
Insider Reveals Major Update on Buccaneers WR Mike Evans Before Lions Game

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have carved out an impressive six-game stretch to start the 2025 NFL season, with Baker Mayfield and company sporting a record of 5-1 heading into Week 7’s matchup with the Detroit Lions.
Not only has it been impressive that Todd Bowles‘ squad has won five out of its first six games, but they’ve also been doing it against tough competition while dealing with several injuries, especially on the offensive side of the football.
In Week 7, the competition only gets tougher for the resilient Buccaneers, with the team going on the road to face an NFC heavyweight. Tampa Bay will travel to Ford Field in hopes of taking down Jared Goff and the Lions in a matchup that could very well be an NFC Championship Game preview.
Fortunately for the Buccaneers, the team might get a boost in the passing game in Week 7, with star wide receiver Mike Evans potentially trending in the right direction.
Crucial Update on Buccaneers Star WR Mike Evans

Even though the Buccaneers have been one of the best teams in the NFL through the first six weeks of the 2025 campaign, Tampa Bay has been able to keep its offense firing on all cylinders without Evans, who has only played three games due to a hamstring injury.
However, the emergence of rookie wide receiver Emeka Egbuka has overshadowed Evans’ absence, as he has been arguably the best offensive rookie in the year up to this point. Unfortunately, Egbuka suffered a hamstring injury in Week 6, which will put him on the shelf for some time.
Even though the team will be without Egbuka and still have Chris Godwin on the mend, there’s a chance Evans could be back in the mix against the Lions, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.
The Bucs are going on second- and third-string receivers due to injury, but Mike Evans (hamstring) will give it a go in practice this week with hopes of playing Monday against Detroit. Evans has missed three games and had hoped to avoid a fourth. It’s worth noting that he is tied with Jerry Rice for most consecutive 1,000-yard seasons (11). If he’s back this week, he has 11 games to get from 140 to 1,000.
Obviously, this is good news for the Buccaneers, even though he could still end up missing a fourth straight game. Along with keeping Tampa Bay in title contention in the NFC, he has the motivation to break Jerry Rice’s record, which is likely driving him moving forward.
Baker Mayfield Continues Going Strong in MVP Campaign

Although it initially seemed like a stretch that Mayfield would be in the NFL MVP conversation, the Buccaneers star is generating a lot of buzz to win the regular-season award after an incredible start to the season, as he’s being mentioned in the same breath as Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen.
Even with the injuries piling up for the Buccaneers, Mayfield has been as resilient as any quarterback in the league, leading his squad to wins every week.
Through the first six games of the season, Mayfield has thrown for 1,539 yards (4th in the NFL), 12 touchdowns (tied for 3rd) and only one interception. As long as he can keep putting up numbers while limiting the turnovers and winning games, he could emerge as the favorite to be the league’s next MVP.
