Kelly Clarkson's Brooklyn Store Encounter Sparks Outrage After 'Pretty Woman' Moment New

Kelly Clarkson's Brooklyn Store Encounter Sparks Outrage After 'Pretty Woman' Moment

Art of Play – the Brooklyn, New York, boutique condemned by Kelly Clarkson — is directly responding to the singer’s claim she was forced to endure an embarrassing Pretty Woman moment. “Yesterday, Kelly Clarkson visited us in Brooklyn and inquired about buying ‘Molly,’ a one-of-a-kind singing and dancing bird automaton who plays an important role in the magic shows we host here,” a Sunday, October 11, statement shared via the shop’s official Instagram page read. “Molly is permanently attached to the wall and isn’t for sale. However, the negative experience Kelly described on twitter would resonate with anyone who has ever felt judged in a shop.” Clarkson, 44, made waves on Saturday, October 10, claiming that she was made to feel as if she “couldn’t afford” the home goods shops’ merchandise. “Just drove all the way to Brooklyn to check out this store I thought looked really rad,” Clarkson tweeted. “[I] had a few things in mind to buy and literally was looked at as if I couldn’t afford it and was told he could find something comparable for me. Wow, dude. You’re an idiot and just lost a huge sale.” After resharing a handful of positive reviews to their shop’s Instagram page in what appeared to be subtle responses to the singer’s alleged experience, Art of Play further rebuffed Clarkson’s account directly. “At Art of Play whether someone comes in to make a purchase or simply look around for a while, they are equally welcome,” the statement added. “We greet everyone who walks in the door with the invitation to ‘pick things up and play.’” And they do, many stay for hours enjoying our puzzles, games and toys.” The message continued, “Imagine our surprise when our small local business was suddenly attacked by 8 million people who have never visited our store. It’s been a surreal experience to be the focus of such widespread outrage after just one mention by a celebrity. Thanks to all our friends for their support and welcome to all the curious folks who have discovered us amidst the drama.” Quoting Clarkson’s hit single “Stronger,” the shopkeepers planned to resume business as usual. “We’re going to keep our heads down and hopefully, we can clear things up with Kelly someday,” the statement concluded. “As a talented popular singer once said ‘what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.’” Clarkson, who has not further addressed the alleged shopping encounter, relocated to New York City in 2023 with her two children.

NYC Teacher Sparks Outrage After Disrupting Vigil with Pro-Hamas Chants

A New York City public school teacher crashed a Manhattan vigil last week honoring victims of the Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, alongside other protesters who cheered on Hamas and chanted violent messages such as “globalize the intifada,” The Post has learned.Mia Kurzer, a special education teacher at The Heritage School in East Harlem, was among the protesters videotaped at the event in Union Square, where some carried flags of terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah, according to a complaint filed with the Department of Education and Schools Chancellor Kamar Samuels.Mia Kurzer, a special education teacher at The Heritage School in East Harlem, disrupts a vigil for victims of the Oct. 7 Hamas massacre. The Heritage School NYCA Jewish activist and educator who filed the complaint is demanding Kurzer be investigated for creating a hostile environment for Jewish students and faculty at her school.“Last night, pro-Palestinian demonstrators overran an October 7 vigil in Union Square organized by Israelis for Peace, drowned out the reading of the names of people killed, and took over chairs reserved for participants, including Comptroller Brad Lander and Mayor Zohran Mamdani,” Moshe Spern wrote in his formal Oct. 8 complaint.“Video from the event shows Ms. Kurzer among those occupying those seats while mourners were being shouted down. Chants reported at the scene included ‘[globalize] the intifada’ and praise for the attackers.”Spern said he had video evidence that the teacher was at the event.“She was comfortable sitting among the Hamas flags and Hamas chants,” he told The Post Sunday.Earlier in the day, Kurzer came to school wearing a keffiyeh, Spern’s complaint alleged.Counterprotesters supporting the Palestinian people demonstrate during a candlelight vigil for the victims of the Oct. 7, 2023, attacks. Gregory P. Mango for NY Post“That choice made staff and students uncomfortable and signaled political activism inside a New York City public school,” he said.Spern also complained that the Department of Education ignored a prior complaint he made about Kurzer attending protests outside the Park East Synagogue in Manhattan.“A year ago I notified you that Ms. Kurzer participated in both protests outside Park East Synagogue on November 19, 2025, and May 2026, at which demonstrators chanted ‘intifada revolution,’ ‘globalize the intifada,’ and ‘death to the IDF,’ and Jewish congregants were obstructed from entering their house of worship,” Spern told the chancellor.“Those demonstrations were widely condemned, including by Governor Hochul, as intimidation of Jewish New Yorkers at a synagogue led by a Holocaust survivor.”The Jewish educator argued that the sum of Kurzer’s actions shows a pattern of hostility towards Israel and Jews. Mayor Mamdani attends a candlelight vigil for the victims of October 7, 2023, in Union Square in New York on Wednesday, Oct. 7, 2026. Gregory P. Mango for NY Post“Taken together, the synagogue protests at which intifada was chanted, an unanswered OEO [ Office of Equal Opportunity & Diversity Management] referral, disruption of an October 7 vigil, and wearing a keffiyeh in school on 10/7, this is not an isolated incident,” he wrote in the document. “It is a continuing course of conduct by a DOE employee that creates a hostile environment for Jewish students and staff and is incompatible with the Department’s obligations under Chancellor’s Regulation A-830, A-421, and Title VI.”Spern demanded an investigation be conducted by the Office of Equal Opportunity and Diversity Management or a referral made to the Special Commissioner on Schools Investigation.“Jewish students and staff are entitled to a school that does not employ someone who joins mobs outside synagogues and then marks October 7 with a political symbol in the building,” he said.The teacher’s anti-Israel protest work dates back to her college years.In 2024, Kurzer was interviewed by CNN about her participation in anti-Israel protests at the University of Wisconsin, where she was a student at the time. She said she was Jewish and attended Hebrew school as a child, but critics slammed her as “not a real Jew” for partaking in the protests.Kurzer, reached by phone, had no comment.Last week, The Post reported on another teacher, Damien Neva, who brazenly posted, “Long live Yahya al-Sinwar’’ — praising the Hamas leader who was the architect of the Oct. 7, 2023 massacre — in a group chat, according to a lawsuit.Neva is now under investigation by city education officials.

DHS Secretary Slams Governor Hochul's Silence on NYPD Stabbing Amid ICE Controversy New

DHS Secretary Slams Governor Hochul's Silence on NYPD Stabbing Amid ICE Controversy

See more of our coverage in your search results. Homeland Security Director Markwayne Mullin on Sunday ripped Gov. Kathy Hochul for grandstanding over the shooting of a reputed gangbanger by ICE just days after she said nothing about an NYPD cop being stabbed by other illegal immigrants.Mullin accused Hochul of “hypocrisy” for the way she suggested it was federal agents terrorizing the Empire State because Oscar Belgal was left with non-life-threatening wounds while trying to flee his arrest in the Bronx on Thursday.Neither Hochul nor other leading “career sanctuary politicians” said “anything when … an NYPD officer was stabbed seven times in this same neighborhood in the Bronx just last week,” Mullin noted on Fox News’ Shannon Bream Sunday, referring to off-duty NYPD Detective Jose Mercedes.“They were completely silent,” he raged.New York Gov. Kathy Hochul was accused of grandstanding over an ICE operation in the Bronx. Matt Roberts/ShutterstockMullins noted the striking similarities between the suspects in Mercedes’ stabbing, Dangelo Rafael Jean Caraballo and Sneider Mejia Bautista, and the shot migrant being championed by the left“All three of these criminals … all from the Dominican Republic, all had extensive criminal records, all should have been deported” with previous containers, he said.“When an NYPD officer got stabbed, no one did a press conference, no one was outside protesting, no one said a word,” Mullin said.“And then when Oscar, an individual who evaded us last month and has an extensive criminal background,” he said, reading a list of his felony charges and his gang affiliation, “they’re out there protesting for this guy?“It’s absolute hypocrisy.”He added that Belga had built up an astonishing number of charges in the three years since he arrived illegally in the United States, including four counts of felony robbery, two of felony assault, two felony drug charges, and two felony larceny charges, as well as misdemeanor assault and weapons possession.Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said Gov. Hochul had stayed silent on the attack on an NYPD officer.

Mercedes, who has since left the hospital.“Governor Hochul has tremendous respect for the hardworking men and women of the New York City Police Department and the crucial role they play in driving down crime and making New York safer,” a spokesperson for Hochul’s office told The Post.“Rather than politicizing this terrible incident, the Governor will continue to prioritize the real work that supports our law enforcement, including investing record amounts in law enforcement funding, strengthening laws to keep our communities safe, and protecting New Yorkers from rogue ICE agents.”

Jesse McCartney's Heartfelt Confession About Baby No. 2 After Son's Early Birth New

Jesse McCartney's Heartfelt Confession About Baby No. 2 After Son's Early Birth

Jesse McCartney is opening up about her mindset as she prepares for the arrival of his and wife Katie Peterson’s second baby. “I’m pumped. Very excited,” McCartney, 39, told TMZ on Thursday, October 8, adding that being a “girl dad is different.” McCartney noted that he has “no idea what it’s going to be like,” but is “very psyched” about soon having both a girl and a boy in their family. “I told my wife, if it was two boys, we might be going crazy. So I got one of each and maybe we can call it there. We’re even. Nobody’s outnumbered in the house,” he said. “But we’re very excited. It will be nice. Our first boy is such a good kid and everything you want in a son so I imagine our daughter will be the same.” McCartney also reflected on the pair welcoming their son, Archer, three months before his scheduled due date in 2025. Their newborn ultimately spent 70 days in the NICU before the proud parents were allowed to take him home. “We’re trying to not think of the worst and trying to go into this cautiously optimistic I should say,” he said. “So far everything is going great and mom is doing well. Being a NICU parent can definitely cause a little PTSD but so far everything is great and mom is staying healthy.” Days before, McCartney and Peterson announced that they are expecting their second child. The couple shared several maternity photos at the time, including one of Archer pointing to Peterson’s stomach as she and McCartney smiled. “Archer is getting promoted to big brother �� March 2027,” the pair wrote via Instagram at the time. McCartney and Peterson, who tied the knot in 2021, later shared that they are expecting a baby girl and “couldn’t be happier” about the news. “Once we had the most amazing boy, and I could check that off the list, I remember telling Katie, ‘I’ll love this baby no matter what, but like...if it’s another boy, we may be going for three,’” McCartney joked to People earlier this month, while Peterson added, “I’ve been in such boy mom mode that it’s crazy to think about boys and tutus, but I am so ready. I think she’ll bring the perfect balance to our little family. We feel incredibly lucky to get to experience a son and now a daughter as well. And I’d be lying if I wasn’t most excited to watch Jesse be a girl dad.”

Kim Kardashian's Vintage Glam Stuns at Lewis Hamilton's Singapore Grand Prix New

Kim Kardashian's Vintage Glam Stuns at Lewis Hamilton's Singapore Grand Prix

Kim Kardashian brought a dose of vintage glamour to the Singapore Grand Prix paddock while supporting her boyfriend, Lewis Hamilton. Kardashian, 45, sashayed into the Marina Bay Street Circuit on Sunday, October 11, in a vintage Roberto Cavalli pink floral gown that matched her rosy makeup. To complete her ensemble, the Skims mogul wore her signature dark tresses long and straight. Kardashian watched her beau’s F1 race from the Scuderia Ferrari garage. (Hamilton, 41, joined Ferrari in 2025 after previously driving for Mercedes.) Kardashian and Hamilton have been romantically linked since February after decades of friendship. As their bond turned romantic, the reality TV personality has been a fixture in the F1 paddock to cheer on the racing star. One day before Sunday’s race in Singapore, Kardashian watched Hamilton’s qualifying race from the Ferrari garage in a fitted, pale pink halter gown that complemented her miniature Hermès Kelly handbag. He finished in the P2 position going into the main event. “I had a mega start which is awesome,” he told reporters after crossing the finish line. “I love driving this track in the rain and those conditions, so as soon as the heavens opened I was like, ‘This is a great day.’” The British athlete added, “I think we showed that we, obviously, have a good car. I think if we can do slightly better in Qualifying, get both cars up there, I think we’ll be able to reapply pressure tomorrow to both the Mercedes and the Red Bull [teams].” As Kardashian continues to cheer on Hamilton’s racing finishes, she’s enjoying their slow-but-steady romance. “I was really single for five years, and that felt great. I could focus on my kids and projects that I really wanted to be involved with. I really felt no rush,” Kardashian, who shares four children with ex-husband Kanye West, told The Times of London in a profile earlier this month. “I felt like I needed my time. I wasn’t ready to open up. I really wasn’t even thinking about it. The universe works in your favor when you just allow it to.”

The crazed killer in a mass murder-suicide in Pennsylvania was a grandfather who slaughtered nine of his own loved ones, including his young grandchildren and a daughter days away from giving birth again, according to horrified relatives.The 45-year-old suspect, who has yet to be fully identified, was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot in the family home in Erie late Friday, with the murder weapon beside him, officials told Erie News Now.After a shooting spree inside the house, he had stepped outside to gun down two women, ages 51 and 37, who rushed to the scene, before going back inside and killing himself, according to cops.Pregnant woman Angelina Stone was killed by her father in a mass murder-suicide in Eerie, Pa. on Oct. 10, 2026. GoFundMeThe dead included Angelina Stone, the killer’s pregnant daughter who was days away from giving birth to a third child, Kryie, who was added to the death toll, taking it to 10. Her two other kids — son Isiah, 5, and daughter Amari’anna, almost 2 — were also killed.“Angelina’s father killed Angelina and her children in a murder-suicide, and now our family is facing the painful task of laying them to rest,” said an online fundraiser that had collected almost $24,000 by Sunday.The fundraiser did not otherwise identify the killer dad, who has also not yet been identified by authorities. All of the dead were relatives, save for one who was a family friend.The father of one of Angelina’s slain children also told Erie News Now that the killer was his one-time partner’s dad.“It was my baby, bro, and he just took her,” Ezekiel said. “Her name was Amari’anna. She’s the most beautiful baby God could have created.”Juicesiyah Alexander Ezekiel says his daughter Amari’anna’s grandfather was the mass shooter who killed the toddler, and her brother and pregnant mother alongside three other family members and a family friend in Erie, Pa.

Erie News NowStone had already named her unborn child Kyrie, and was due to deliver him on Wednesday.“She was pregnant, about to have a baby in a couple of days and she had a daughter that was almost two, and her son Isaiah, who I believe was four or five,” Ezekiel’s sister Lisa Simmers told the outlet. “They are all just beautiful children and definitely did not deserve what happened to them.”Ezekiel is pictured with Amari’anna, 22 months, who relatives say was slain by her unidentified grandfather. Erie News NowErie cops have yet to suggest a motive, and said Sunday that identifications were being held because “surviving family members are still being notified.”Another fundraising website had been set up for Lora Roberts, who organizers said was among those murdered.Roberts was remembered as “a loving mother of five, a devoted fiancée, a cherished daughter, family member, and friend to so many,” by organizers Kellie Eggleston and Christine Tombaugh.Police were reviewing cellphone records of the victims in an attempt to understand what had led to the shooting and establish a motive. Officials have said mental health issues “may be a factor” in the horrific familicide.

Saudi Arabia's Airport Shutdown Sparks Tension After Deadly Houthi Strikes New

Saudi Arabia's Airport Shutdown Sparks Tension After Deadly Houthi Strikes

See more of our coverage in your search results. Saudi Arabia on Sunday extended the closure of its main international airport as Houthi rebels threatened airstrikes across the kingdom, a day after a missile attack killed 12 people and wounded more than 300.Saturday’s strike on the Riyadh airport marked a major escalation of the war between Yemen’s Iran’s-backed Houthis and the kingdom. President Donald Trump said he was considering whether to join Saudi strikes against the rebels, a scenario that could prompt the Houthis to halt shipping through a crucial waterway and further restrict the flow of oil out of the Persian Gulf.As international leaders spoke out condemning the attack Sunday, the Houthis reported that two airstrikes hit Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, blaming Saudi Arabia. There was no immediate comment from Saudi authorities or reports of casualties.Saudi Arabia extended an airport closure after a Houthi strike killed 12 people and injured 300. APThe Houthi-run Health Ministry says 91 Yemenis have been killed and 168 injured by the Saudi-led coalition in five weeks. It said that 60% of those killed were women and children.Houthis renew threats to Saudi ArabiaAs Saudi authorities extended Saturday’s airport closure until at least 9 p.m. Sunday, according to Flightradar24, the Houthis said the kingdom’s airports were attack targets.Brig. Gen. Yahya Saree, the group’s military spokesman, urged “everyone to take our warnings seriously.”The latest attack on the Saudi airport drew condemnations from Arab countries, including Iraq, Lebanon and Syria, as well as U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.“Attacks by Iran’s proxies are pushing the region into a spiral of violence,” Von der Leyen wrote Sunday on X. “They are destabilizing crucial global transport and energy nodes.”The attack at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, marked a major turning point in the war between the Houthis and the kingdom. AP Photo/Attack killed people of different nationalitiesThe attack struck an airport complex housing terminals 3 and 4 for domestic flights, a regional official said, speaking on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to speak to the media.The Saudi statement said the dead included four Saudi citizens, two Bangladeshi nationals, a Palestinian, a U.S. citizen, an Egyptian, a Jordanian, a Syrian and a Sudanese. It said several hospitals were treating the injured.U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio acknowledged in a social media post that an American citizen had been killed in the attack, which he condemned.The Egyptian woman was a flight attendant identified as Azza Ramzy, 28, who worked for the Saudi airline Flynas, according to the Egyptian state-run Al-Qahera New television.President Trump is weighing U.S. military action, saying, “We just found out about the recent attack. So we’ll make a decision. We move very quickly.” AFP via Getty ImagesTrump said he would consider joining strikes against rebelsThe attack is expected to increase Saudi pressure on allies, including the United States, to provide military support for the kingdom.Shortly after the attack, Trump said he was evaluating whether the U.S. should join Saudi strikes against the rebels. “We may. We’re going to look at it,” he said. “We just found out about the recent attack. So we’ll make a decision. We move very quickly.”Trump said later Saturday he planned to speak with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Asked if the U.S. might get involved, Trump responded, “We’ll find out.”The Houthis claimed attacks earlier in the week on King Khalid International Airport that killed three Saudis, including a pilot. The airport has no military facilities.The surge in attacks, including against other Saudi airports, military facilities and oil infrastructure, has come in the week since a Saudi-led coalition launched a major military offensive against the Houthis.Iran can use Houthis to pressure key US allyUntil recently, the Houthis had been largely on the sidelines of the Iran war. Now, the rebels are a way for Tehran to pressure a key U.S. ally. Houthi attacks, along with their control of the Bab el-Mandeb waterway, also threaten to add new disruptions to the flow of oil from the region.The Saudis and the Houthis began fighting in 2015 when the kingdom entered Yemen’s civil war on behalf of the internationally recognized government.Relative calm after a 2022 ceasefire ended in July when the Houthis resumed attacks, saying the Saudis fired on the Sanaa airport as a plane from Iran was trying to land. That revived anger over the Saudi-led blockade that has largely isolated Houthi-run areas.Now fighting has escalated, with the Saudi-led coalition providing air support for Yemeni government forces attempting to reverse recent Houthi gains along the Red Sea. Those gains gave the rebels better surveillance of shipping on the Bab el-Mandeb, a corridor that is a crucial alternative to the Strait of Hormuz, where Iran has been attacking ships.Saudi Arabia is running low on missile interceptors and has asked France, Britain, Pakistan and Egypt to deploy air defense support to the region, regional officials told The Associated Press last month, with one noting that the U.S. has seen its own stock dwindle during the war with Iran.

Travis Kelce Sparks Buzz by Cheering Cleveland Guardians to Victory New

Travis Kelce Sparks Buzz by Cheering Cleveland Guardians to Victory

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was full of team spirit for another major sports franchise on a solo night out. The NFL star, 37, rocked a red Nike Cleveland Guardians jersey and a navy cap emblazoned with the team's logo while watching their Game 5 showdown in the American League Division Series against the Chicago White Sox on Saturday, October 10. (Kelce had some free time this weekend as the Chiefs are on a bye week.) An appearance from Kelce at Progressive Field may have given the Guardians a boost, as the team ultimately toppled the White Sox 2-0 to win the series. Saturday's victory propelled the Guardians into the American League Championship Series for the second time in three years. The Guardians now move on to face the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 1 of the ALCS at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida, on Monday, October 12. Kelce wasn't the only famous Cleveland resident at Progressive Field on Saturday night — Cavaliers shooting guard Donovan Mitchell was also in attendance to root for the hometown team. Kelce has a business interest in the Guardians' postseason success, as he became a minority owner of the squad earlier this year. His involvement in the Guardians' ownership was a full-circle accomplishment for Kelce, as he was a self-professed "die-hard fan" of the team while growing up in the Cleveland area. "I have so much love for this city,” Kelce told ESPN in March. “I say it all the time: I’m just a kid from the Heights living the dream. I credit every good thing in my life to Cleveland and being raised here with the values and the people and the work ethic. Cleveland Heights is such a diverse and dynamic place." The athlete went on to say, "Every friend, neighbor, teacher and teammate — they all made me the man I am today. It just fueled such a deep appreciation for life and community and service. That mentality of Cleveland against the world runs deep.” At the time, Kelce tipped his hat to the Kansas City Chiefs' owners, the Hunt family, telling the outlet that he'd been "lucky enough to have a front-row seat to good ownership in my career" in the NFL. "I know the best teams prioritize culture," he added. "Everyone is there to play their role, and right now, I’m here to observe and learn and really to support the team and the city when and where I can." Cleveland is certainly having a pop culture moment this fall. In September, Kelce's wife, Taylor Swift, shouted out his hometown on the song "Cleveland," from the expanded version of her record-breaking 2025 album, The Life of a Showgirl. “I guess there’s something we all can agree on / But my baby likes what he likes,” Swift sings in the "Cleveland" chorus. “He already took me to Cleveland / And showed me The Heights, so hate all you like / This is the love of my life.” During a September 30 episode of his "New Heights" podcast, Travis and his brother Jason Kelce gave Swift's ode to Cleveland their stamp of approval. “Cleveland is rocking right now,” Kelce told listeners. “Shout-out to Tay Tay for making that song.” His brother Jason, 38, chimed in, saying, "Dude, that song is incredible. [My wife] Kylie [Kelce] and I have been listening to it so much. There’s just something about it [that] makes you feel really good." The Chiefs return to action on Sunday, October 18, when they host the Los Angeles Chargers at Arrowhead Stadium.

Maggie Sajak Stuns Fans Cheering for Boyfriend Jackson Olson at Banana Bowl New

Maggie Sajak Stuns Fans Cheering for Boyfriend Jackson Olson at Banana Bowl

Maggie Sajak was practically "burnin' up" as she cheered on her boyfriend Jackson Olson's performance with the Jonas Brothers at the 2026 Banana Bowl. "Let's go!!!!" Sajak, 31, rallied via her Instagram Story over footage of Olson, 28, being introduced to a huge ovation at Nationals Park on Saturday, October 10. Olson's team, the Savannah Bananas, competed in the first-ever Banana Bowl in Washington D.C. alongside five other teams from the Banana Ball Championship League — the Party Animals, the Firefighters, the Texas Tailgaters, the Loco Beach Coconuts and the Indianapolis Clowns. Sajak was in attendance on Saturday to support her beau. During the ninth inning, all six teams set aside their rivalries for a few minutes to perform a choreographed dance routine with the Jonas Brothers. The boyband took to the field for a medley of their greatest hits — including "Burnin' Up" and "Sucker" — alongside the Banana Ball teams, before jamming on "Celebrate!" with Olson and the Savannah Bananas at home plate. (Kane Brown, John Cena, Pentatonix, the touring ensemble from Disney's Beauty and the Beast and Dancing With the Stars cast members also appeared during the exhibition game.) As the Jonas Brothers kicked off their set, an excited Sajak asked her Instagram followers, "Like how is this real OMG?" "Mood when @jacksonolson and the Jonas Brothers are on the same field," Sajak wrote over footage of herself dancing in the stands at Nationals Park. Unfortunately, the Savannah Bananas couldn't bring home the championship on Saturday, finishing as runners-up to the 2026 Banana Bowl winners, the Texas Tailgaters. Olson has somehow managed to fit his playing time with the Bananas into a jam-packed schedule this fall, seeing as he is simultaneously competing on Dancing With the Stars season 35. Sajak has frequently been in the ballroom throughout the first few weeks of the season to show her support for Olson. (The couple went public with their relationship in April, after originally crossing paths at a Los Angeles Dodgers game in October 2024.) In September, Olson exclusively explained to Us why he tries to never look at Sajak in the crowd while he is performing with professional partner Emma Slater on DWTS. "It’s so awesome [to have her here]. I try not to look at her during the dance because I know that she’s smiling," he sweetly revealed. "I know that she’s so excited and smiling. And if I looked at her, I would just like be like, ‘Ah!'" Olson added, "But it’s awesome, and she’s so supportive of both of us, too. She was wearing the Team Banana ballroom shirt [for Viral Hits Night], so that was cool.” Speaking to Us, Olson hinted that Maggie's famous father, former Wheel of Fortune host Pat Sajak, may make an appearance in the DWTS studio audience before the end of the season. “We need to [have him here],” Olson insisted. “I think he’ll be at one of these.” The athlete doesn't have much time to decompress after the Banana Bowl, as he and Slater, 37, will be dancing the salsa to "Uptown Funk" on DWTS' "Super Bowl Night" on Tuesday, October 13. Dancing With the Stars airs on ABC Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on Disney+ and ABC.

Probably the last photo on his phone.”Police and paramedics were called to the park at about 1:35 p.m. after reports that the man had entered the “Land of the Tigers” exhibit, where the big cat attacked him.Miller said she did not know whether the man was accompanied by a caregiver or family member, adding that she believed he may have wanted to play with the animal.Witness Marie Miller said she believes the man “just wanted to play with the tiger.” Charley Atkins / SWNS“I’m not sure if he was with a carer or family member but I honestly do think he just wanted to play with the tiger,” she wrote.“Tragic for his family. Tragic for the staff who were brilliant but in shock. Thankfully the tiger survived.

What Your Fingernails Might Reveal About Hidden Health Issues

What Your Fingernails Might Reveal About Hidden Health Issues

See more of our coverage in your search results. Your nails might be trying to tell you something — and checking them could be the easiest way (hands down) to spot hidden health problems.Meaning “little moon” in Latin, lunulae are the half-moon shapes at the base of your nails. It’s where new nail cells are made and pushed forward. They’re most prominent on your thumbs and are smaller and less visible as you move out to the pinkies.Researchers analyzed studies going back to 1954, when the first research was published on a particular kind of unusual lunulae, to find exactly what the mini-moons can tell us about our health. New research says one nail abnormality could be a warning sign. oreans – stock.adobe.comLunulae are usually white, because the nail is thicker there, obscuring the blood vessels on the nail bed. That said, not everyone has them, and not having lunulae doesn’t indicate you’re unhealthy.But when you have lunulae that turn red, it could spell danger. “Red lunulae may reflect both systemic disease activity or local pathology,” the authors wrote.What reserachers foundNails are highly sensitive to health changes in the body. It needs a steady flow of nutrients, oxygen, and blood flow to grow continuously, and changes to any of these will affect the way they grow.For example, using GLP-1s has recently shown to be associated with discolored and detached nails.That’s why we’re been looking to our nails for so long as indicators of health. Back in that first 1954 report, researchers in London observed 61% of folks examined with red lunulae also had heart failure.All the others with red lunulae had some kind of systemic disease like emphysema and chronic bronchitis (both known as COPD), cirrhosis (longterm liver scarring), and cancer, including polycythemia vera (a blood cancer that causes thick, slow moving blood), lymphoma (cancer of white blood cells), and myeloid leukemia (cancer of blood and bone marrow). Researchers offered this example of a red lunulae on a 77-year-old man. Christopher G. Karim et al.Since then, more research has shown red lunulae are connected with autoimmune conditions like alopecia areata (which causes the hair to fall out in round patches), dermatomyositis (which causes skin rashes and muscle weakness), and systemic lupus erythematosus (aka SLE, which attacks healthy tissue and organs.)Author also note connections with congestive heart failure, psoriasis, carbon monoxide poisoning, and lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV), a sexually transmitted infection caused by certain variants of the Chlamydia bacteria.But exactly why red mini-moons on your nails are connected to any of these conditions “remains unclear,” authors say.They do point out though, that the association only exists if multiple fingernails have red lunulae — if it’s just one, something local like an injury under that nail, is more common.It’s also important to note that having a red lunulae doesn’t necessarily mean something’s wrong, just as having white ones doesn’t mean you’re perfectly healthy.Authors say that the review simply shows support for more investigation if a patient comes in with red lunulae.“Given the rarity of the occurrence, its potential diagnostic relevance is often overlooked,” write the researchers. “When identifying red lunulae, clinicians should consider connections to underlying systemic or dermatologic disease. This subtle clinical sign may facilitate early detection and identification of salient systemic disease.”

Pitbull's Surprising Stance on Keeping Family Out of the Spotlight

Pitbull's Surprising Stance on Keeping Family Out of the Spotlight

Pitbull keeps his private life sacred, often opting to keep his fatherly duties completely under the radar. “I feel that if you love something, you don't want the world to know about it, [so] you protect it,” Pitbull, 45, told Billboard in an interview published Thursday, October 8. “Look, when my kids get to a certain age — and some are — and they want to make their own decisions as far as how they want to live their life and how they want to welcome the world to it, that's on them.” As for any of his children under the age of 18, the “Fireball” musician has been wary about letting them join him in the public eye. (Pitbull is reportedly a father of six, per Rolling Stone, but has not publicly offered many details about his family size.) “I'm very private [about] what I do, so I don't wanna put them in my world 'cause they're not built for it yet,” he told Billboard. “It's my responsibility as a parent to protect them. So, if I put you in my world and now you go to school and everybody’s like, ‘Oh, 'cause you're Pitbull's kid … come here.’ How are you gonna ever know who's your friend? They don't know.” Pitbull, real name Armando Pérez, further acknowledged that his surname is so “common” to help conceal his kids’ lineage. “I protect them because I love them,” Pitbull stressed to the outlet, adding that he maintains his “Mr. Worldwide” stage persona at home with his brood. “I always got music going on. When I am relaxing, I'm always looking at a documentary. I love documentaries. I love to learn, but as far as that, I'm the wild card in my kids’ life.” According to Pitbull, his kids are among his biggest fans. “They love it; they lose their mind,” he recalled of his kids’ reaction to his popular music videos. “This is the joke with the kids, especially the small ones, you teach them in life to tell the truth, and then I have to teach them how to lie about their truth. ‘Where do you live?’ [And they respond,] ‘Oh, I live …’ No, you don't. You don't live here.” Pitbull also noted that his kids are only allowed to join social media once they turn of age. “If they wanna make their own decision, that's on them,” he stated of his adult children. “I always tell them, ‘Listen to me. How many tattoos you got?’ Some got little tattoos, but when they had no tattoos, [I told them] when you put up a picture or you put up a video, it's a tattoo for life.”
