One of the biggest players in television is changing teams.

“Yellowstone” creator Taylor Sheridan will leave his longtime home at Paramount and move his overall deal to rival NBCUniversal in 2029, according to a person familiar with the matter who was not authorized to comment.

Sheridan’s deal with Paramount concludes at the end of 2028. Financial terms were not disclosed.

The move is a blow to Paramount, which has focused on wooing high-profile talent to the studio since its takeover by tech scion David Ellison and his Skydance Media.

The media company — which is now angling to buy Warner Bros. Discovery — has shelled out massive sums to acquire sports media rights, keep the iconic “South Park” cartoon and lure filmmakers away from competitors, including “Stranger Things” creators Matt and Ross Duffer and “A Compete Unknown” director James Mangold.

The NBC deal, first reported by Puck, will take effect in 2029.

Sheridan’s universe of “Yellowstone” shows, in particular, has been a key franchise for Paramount. Company executives specifically mentioned the creator’s shows as a “cornerstone” of the Paramount+ streaming service during a luncheon with reporters this summer.

The western-themed show, which debuted as a cable series in 2018, became one of the hottest scripted series on TV, a remarkable turnaround from its early days when “Yellowstone” was passed on by a number of potential homes before landing at Paramount.

The popularity of “Yellowstone” was a boon to Sheridan, leading to spinoffs such as “1923” and other shows from his production company including “Tulsa King,” “Landman” and “Mayor of Kingston.”

Representatives for Paramount and Sheridan did not respond immediately to a request for comment. NBCUniversal declined to comment.

A WOMAN who forked out £80,000 for her dramatic plastic surgery has revealed she has no plans to stop going under the knife.

Pixiee Fox drew inspiration from cartoon characters including Jessica Rabbit and Sleeping Beauty for her transformation, but was told she would end up looking “goofy” by plastic surgeons.

On an episode of E!’s Botched, Pixiee faced plastic surgeon Terry Dubrow and Paul Nassif as she revealed she wanted to go under the knife yet again to lower her hair line to make her forehead appear smaller.

“I never really felt human, I always felt more like a fantasy creature,” she said on the show.

But when Pixiee met with the surgeons they weren’t convinced by her plans to lower her hairline.

“I am so close to becoming a real life cartoon, I need a small surgery and I’m done,” she said.

After a consultation with the doctors, they determined her previous surgeries had caused too much damage.

“I have never seen anything like this in my entire career,” Doctor Terry said.

The duo broke the news to Pixiee that they wouldn’t operate on her, but she hinted she would still go ahead with the surgery elsewhere, despite their advice.

How has Pixee Fox made herself look like a Barbie doll?

The social media star has had countless plastic surgery ops since her first procedure in 2011, transforming her body.

Pixee, who lives in North Carolina, flew to India to have her eye colour changed in a dangerous operation that is not performed in Europe or America.

She also went to Korea to have her jaw shape changed in another extreme procedure that could have left her paralysed.

She’s had several boob jobs, bringing her up to a colossal 30J, and has pumped up her bum and lips with fat from her legs and belly.

Pixee even admitted she “gave up on love” to share a home with fellow surgery addict Justin Jedlica, so they can live together as a real-life Barbie and Ken.

She’s had 200 ops, including six ribs removed, four boob jobs, two rounds of liposuction, labiaplasty, and butt lift.

And she even had her jaw broken, shaved and reset, to mimic Wonder Woman.

Pixee Fox went through the agonising op to give her a symmetrical V-shaped jawline  in June.

She’s also said to have had her nose and ears altered to make her look more like a Disney princess.

Pixiee shot to fame for her unique looks, but soon the multiple procedures started to take a toll on her health, so she decided to take a break from going under the knife.

Back in 2023 she shared an update with her Instagram followers, as she claimed her obsession with plastic surgery nearly killed her.

She said: “I was a person famous for having plastic surgery, and I have advertised doctors and the procedures they have done on me. I am making this post now because I see other girls advertising this doctor who almost ended my life.”

She added: “I am lucky to still be alive after been in a coma for more than one week. So lucky to have friends and family coming to my aid and getting me home to Sweden.”
