Porsha Williams clapped back after she was busted for hiring actors to play her love interests on “Real Housewives of Atlanta.”

Last year Porsha claimed she had 2 lovers – a male and a female. She introduced her male love interest – Michael “Mike” Anthony – in the Season 17 premiere.

In a bizarre video shared by @kountrywayne and @thebravoshaderoom on Instagram, Mike spoke with a man who told him that filming for RHOA would be good for his “following” and “brand.” He claimed he knows a producer who says they “need a guy” to be a “love interest” for Porsha.

In the caption of the post, The Bravo Shade Room wrote, “Wait! Mike was just a paid actor?”

Porsha wrote: “Absolutely false story. This is a SKIT filmed after rhoa season.”

Porsha previously introduced her female “love interest,” Patrice “Sway” McKinney, in October last year. RHOA viewers are skeptical of their relationship as it does not seem genuine.

Social media users dragged Porsha and Bravo for hiring Mike as Porsha’s love interest when they have zero chemistry together.

“Who asked for this cast?” one viewer wrote on X.com.

Viewers of RHOA gave the season 17 premiere a thumbs down.

President Donald Trump is listed as Tiger Woods’ emergency contact. Woods called Trump after he flipped his SUV while speeding near his home in Jupiter Island, Florida on March 27.

TMZ Sports obtained body cam footage that shows Woods talking on his phone prior to his DUI arrest. He is heard saying, “Thank you so much. All right. You got it. Bye.”

Woods told police, “Yeah, I was just talking with the President.”

Trump and Woods are not casual friends. Sources tell Naughty But Nice that Trump has been Woods’ emergency contact for years. Woods dates Vanessa Trump, the mother of five of President Trump’s grandchildren. She is the ex-wife of Donald Trump Jr.

“Their relationship is much tighter than people realize,” a source tells Naughty But Nice. “This isn’t casual — they talk all the time.”

The insider says Woods is “a loner,” who doesn’t have a large circle of friends. “He keeps people at a distance”

“When your emergency contact is the President, that tells you everything,” the insider said.

Trump and Woods have bonded through golf, business, and their personal lives. Woods reportedly looks up to Trump as a father figure since both of his parents are deceased.

“Tiger respects loyalty,” the source explains. “And he believes Trump has been loyal to him.”

A flight tracker shows Woods’ private jet landed in Zurich, Switzerland last week after a judge gave him permission to leave the country for drug addiction treatment.

Woods has a history of addiction to pain killers stemming from his many back surgeries.

According to reports, Zurich has the most luxurious treatment facilities in the world.

Paracelsus Recovery and Kusnacht Practice are two rehab facilities known for being extremely exclusive, private and very expensive.

Chocolatier Explains Why Hershey’s Bar Bends Like Rubber

Chocolatier Explains Why Hershey’s Bar Bends Like Rubber

A master chocolatier in Lansing, Michigan confirmed that a viral video of a Hershey chocolate bar bending like rubber is not fake.

Back in the day Hershey’s chocolate bars melted quickly and made a mess in your hand or your pocket.

Around 2006, Hershey changed the formula of its chocolate. Now chocolate bars bend like rubber when heated.

On his popular TikTok page, Konstantin J. Zsigo explained why Hershey’s chocolate bends like rubber when heated at room temperature.

He purchased multiple Hershey’s chocolate bars to test his theory.

After overheating one chocolate bar, Konstantin wiggled it and it flopped like rubber.

“Oh my god. What in the holy F,” he said. Konstantin’s chocolate bar was rubbery even after overheating.

Konstantin said Hershey’s added a PGFR emulsifier to cut cocoa butter costs. The PGFR emulsifier bonds to cocoa butter crystals like glue. When the chocolate is heated it bends like rubber.

Konstantin wrote in a comment, “To be clear, it isn’t “fake chocolate”, it’s chocolate that has had an extra emulsifier added to it so they could make it with less cocoa butter (to save cost).”

Last week, Hershey announced the company will revert to using real chocolate and real milk ingredients in all of it’s candy products.

@konstantinzsigo Videos have been going viral about chocolate that bends and looks rubbery. So far, I’ve only seen Hershey bars like that so I decided to do some investigative work and was able to reverse engineer the conditions which allow this to occur. This will not happen if you simply open a chocolate bar from the grocery store, which is why it’s not happening very often. It’s very rare. Remember, Hershey’s sells 1 million chocolate bars a day and if this was happening a lot, you would be seeing a lot more videos than the one you are, so I think I’ve proven that it’s a mishandling problem, and the interaction with a new type of emulsifier, which is PGPR. I’ve never seen that before and I don’t know how recent it is in the chocolate formulations. I certainly don’t have this in any of my chocolate so it was a surprise to me. ##PGPR##E476##fakechocolate##hershey##hersheys ? original sound – Konstantin J. Zsigo

NYC Mayor Plans to Tax Rich White People to Alleviate Burden On Black Households

NYC Mayor Plans to Tax Rich White People to Alleviate Burden On Black Households

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani confirmed his plans to raise property taxes on rich white people to alleviate the burden on poor black households.

Mamdani said raising property taxes on rich white households is justified because the “racial inequities in the City are stark.”

Mamdani said a study has shown that “the wealth of a median white household in this city is more than $200,000, while that of a black household is less than $20,000.”

The new property tax will shift the burden from overtaxed black households in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods.

“This is not an indictment of any one New Yorker,” the mayor added. “It is an indictment, however, of policies and politics that have persisted for far too long.”

Mamdani said his office is reckoning with a long history of racism in New York City, and he will “act upon a framework that puts equity right at the center of it.”

City Council Speaker Julie Menin called the plan “unacceptable”.

“We have said a hard no to raising property taxes 9.5%. That is unacceptable.”

However, Mamdani said raising property taxes on the wealthiest New Yorkers will “end the drain that has characterized the City’s relationship with the state.”

Cardi B had questions for her Superfan, Kelly, who attends all of her concerts. She spoke with Kelly backstage at a recent meet-and-greet.

“You got too much motherf***ing money,” she told Kelly while wagging her finger. “How the f**k do you be everywhere? I wanna know how much money you make. No, bish, you make money.”

Kelly told Cardi B, “Listen, all my money goes to you because I love you!”

“Kelly be everywhere!” Cardi said to the camera. “I know you make money. What do you do? You a drug dealer?”

“I’m a corporate baddie,” Kelly said. “She’s a corporate baddie. A white collar corporate baddie,” Cardi B laughed.

“Yasss. Are you the drama?” Kelly asked her.

“Am I the drama? I don’t know. You tell me,” Cardi responded.

“Make sure y’all go buy the album,” Kelly urged Cardi B’s fans.

Superfans worship their idols and follow them on every tour stop. Michael Jackson personally acknowledged his Superfans during his world tours. He welcomed them and gave them gifts.

Cardi B is currently on the last leg of her “The Little Miss Drama Tour” in support of her album Am I the Drama?

Theo James says the manosphere can’t deal with successful, strong women

Theo James says the manosphere can’t deal with successful, strong women

British actor Theo James commented on the misogyny of the manosphere during an appearance on Josh Smith’s Great Chat Show podcast.

Theo, 41, said men find comfort in the misogyny of the manosphere because they have deep-seated insecurities. He said their insecurities are hidden behind “meaningless bravado” and they don’t know how to deal with successful, strong women.

“It’s a lot about deep-seated insecurity. It’s about them not feeling good enough, but it’s hidden with meaningless bravado,” he said.

Theo is concerned about his 2-year-old son growing up in the manosphere environment.

“It’s terrifying having a son because people get lured into this idea very easily. I think the misogyny comes from lots of successful, strong women around them. They don’t know how to deal with that. They’re confused by who they are and who they should be.”

He continued: “The easiest thing for them to do is to latch onto something: money, going to the gym a lot, and telling people to go f*** themselves. That’s easy. That’s an easy win. But the ramifications of what it does to a generation of men is the trickier part.”

ZUMAPRESS.com / MEGA

Theo is married to Irish actress Ruth Kearney. They have 2 children.

The hunky actor is best known for playing Tobias Eaton in “The Divergent Series” (2014-2016). He is currently starring in Netflix’s crime thriller “The Gentlemen,” season 2.

Theo is also a fashion model who posed in a successful Dolce & Gabbana underwear campaign.

His message was well-received by women on Reddit.com.

One person wrote: “Well put and it’s nice to see a man saying it.”

Another person wrote: “I really appreciate when a man speaks up against the manosphere. More men should do it (especially those with big platforms), because they sure as hell won’t listen to us ‘females.'”

A third person wrote: “A lot of this s**t can be curbed with parents actually caring for and paying attention to their [sons].”

A man commented: “There are a lot of us guys out here that echo the same sentiment and revulsion to what’s going on in the minds of these ‘alpha males’.”

What’s Causing Pancreatic Cancer Explosion in Young People?

Pancreatic cancer cases are exploding among young people. Dr Shanel Bhagwandin, a gastrointestinal surgeon who specializes in pancreatic and colon cancer, says he’s seeing an alarming increase in pancreatic cancers in young patients.

Dr. Bhagwandin says his patients do not fit the traditional picture of pancreatic patients.

Bhagwandin told the Daily Mail that more of his pancreatic cancer patients are in their forties and fifties – and, in some cases, even younger.

“It’s one of the most concerning trends we’re seeing in clinic,” he said. “These are patients who don’t fit the stereotypical profile.”

“Patients are getting younger, and many of them look otherwise healthy,” he added. “They exercise, they work full time. They don’t fit the picture we were taught to expect.”

For decades, pancreatic cancer was regarded as an older person’s disease. Patients are usually people over 65.

The disease is diagnosed late because the symptoms don’t appear until the cancer is advanced.

Just 12% of pancreatic cancer patients live 5 years after diagnosis. The majority do not survive more than a year.

What’s causing pancreatic cancer in young people?

Doctors believe rising rates of obesity, insulin resistance and early metabolic disease among younger adults may play a role in pancreatic cancers among young people.

Also, the lack of FDA regulation of chemicals and bioengineered ingredients in ultra-processed foods may be playing a role in increasing pancreatic and colon cancer rates in young people.

The pancreas is a large organ that helps aid in digestion and regulates blood sugar. The head of the pancreas lies in the upper right side of your belly between your stomach and spine. The tail of the pancreas extends to the left side of your belly.

Most cancers are diagnosed in the head of the pancreas. 10-15% of pancreatic cancers are diagnosed in the tail.

This graphic provided by the Mayo Foundation shows a cancerous tumor in the head of the pancreas that’s spreading into the small intestine. The tumor blocks the bile duct (green tube) that carries bile from your gallbladder to your small intestine.

Bile is the yellow-green fluid produced by your liver that helps digest fat in the food you eat.

Your eyes and skin turn yellow when bile backs up into your bloodstream because of a tumor blocking the bile duct or liver. Other signs and symptoms are caused by the tumor pressing on nerves and blocking the biliary system.

Signs and Symptoms of Pancreatic Cancer

  • Jaundice (yellow eyes and skin)
  • Indigestion
  • Pain after eating
  • Nausea, vomiting
  • Pain in belly
  • Pain in back and side
  • Excessive gas and bloating
  • Loss of appetite
  • Unexplained weight loss
  • Fatty poop that floats on top of water
  • Light or clay-colored poop
  • Low blood pressure and lightheadedness
  • Pancreatitis (inflammation of your pancreas)

    • When to See a Doctor

    There are no early signs and symptoms of pancreatic cancer until the cancer has advanced. However, you should see your doctor right away if you experience any of the following:

  • Unexplained weight loss
  • Loss of appetite
  • Sharp stomach or back pain
  • Abdominal discomfort
  • Fatigue (excessive tiredness)
  • Sudden onset of diabetes
  • Jaundice (yellow eyes and skin)

    “The theme is bronze, and I’m all for the bronze and the sun, and being here in Barbados, the vibe is literally perfect,” she told Elle Magazine.

    The newly-acquired Atlanta Dream forward says she’s expanding her brand because she won’t last long in the WNBA.

    “Basketball is gonna stop one day. It’s important to have your own narrative and be able to take control of that,” she said.

    Angel’s brand includes her “Unapologetically Angel” podcast which she launched on Spotify in September 2024. The podcast covers a wide range of topics and uncensored conversations every week.

    “It’s important to have your own narrative and be able to take control of that,” Angel told Elle. “I know how it feels to be on the other side, to feel like the media is against you. So being able to have a comfortable and open space for guests to come on, but also for myself to have my own platform was important for me.”

    Her podcast is part of Playmaker and Shaquille O’Neal’s Big Podcast Network.

    Angel and Olympic gymnast Suni Lee made history as the first professional athletes to walk in a Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show last year.

    New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel recently criticized devout Christian running back TreVeyon Henderson (left) for posting a Bible verse on social media in support of Jaden Ivey (right) who was waived by the Chicago Bulls.

    Henderson tweeted: “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”

    A reporter asked Vrabel to comment on Henderson’s post last week at the 2026 NFL owners’ meetings in Arizona.

    “I want to tell you, I love TreVeyon,” Vrabel responded. “I love the person. He cares deeply about our team. He cares deeply about his faith. He cares deeply about his family, his wife, and the people in our building. And so, I want them to be able to express what they believe in their heart and in their mind, but also want to make sure that they’re educated, and we want to be inclusive.”

    Vrabel added, “Everything we want to do — we want to provide an environment for people to one, feel comfortable, but also to share their personal beliefs, and then also we represent the team and we represent the organization.”

    Social media users dragged Vrabel for suggesting that Christians are uneducated.

    On Tuesday, April 7, Page Six published exclusive photos that show Vrabel intimately hugging and holding hands with the New York Times‘ top NFL reporter Dianna Russini at a luxury, adults-only resort in Arizona.

    Both Vrabel and Russini are married to other people.

    Vrabel is married to Jen Vrabel since 1999. They have two adult sons.

    Russini is married to Shake Shack executive Kevin Goldschmidt since 2020. They have 2 sons, ages 4 and 2.

    Russini has a sordid reputation for exchanging sex for sports scoops.

    Anonymous sources say Vrabel, 50, and Russini, 43, have been hooking up for years. They’ve known each other for over a decade.

    She covered the Tennessee Titans as a beat reporter at ESPN when Vrabel was the Titans’ head coach from 2018-2023.

    In 2015, Jessica McCloughan, wife of former Washington Redskins GM Scot McCloughan, accused Russini of sleeping with her husband for exclusive scoops. Jessica referred to Russini as her husband’s “new side chick.”

    The Internet reacted to the growing scandal with humor and condemnation.

    New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel is going viral after leaked photos show him hugging and holding hands with married New York Times reporter Dianna Russini.

    Russini is the New York Times‘ top NFL reporter. The NY Times forbids reporters from having relationships with people they cover.

    Exclusive photos published by Page Six show Vrabel and Russini hugging on a bungalow rooftop while enjoying the panoramic view of a mountain range in Sedona, Arizona last month.

    Rooftops are only accessible from the private bungalows, which cost up to $2,160 a night. They were also seen in a hotel hot tub.

    “The pair… had breakfast on the patio of the hotel restaurant around 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, March 28, before spending a leisurely hour or so together at the pool and lounging side-by-side in a hot tub,” Page Six wrote.

    When contacted by Page Six, both Russini and Vrable said they were “with six friends” who weren’t visible in the photos.

    “These photos show a completely innocent interaction and any suggestion otherwise is laughable. This doesn’t deserve any further response,” said Vrabel.

    Russini said the photos don’t tell the full story:

    “The photos don’t represent the group of six people who were hanging out during the day,” she explained. “Like most journalists in the NFL, reporters interact with sources away from stadiums and other venues.”

    However, three eyewitnesses told Page Six that they did not see anyone else with Vrabel, 50, and Russini, 43.

    Asked if the coach visited the hotel with a group of friends, one eyewitness said: “No, he was with a girl.”

    The photos taken at various times during the day only show Vrabel and Russini together. No one else was with them.

    Vrabel is married to Jen Vrabel since 1999. They have two sons.

    Russini is married to Shake Shack executive Kevin Goldschmidt since 2020. They have 2 sons, ages 4 and 2.

    The news comes after Vrabel released star wide receiver Stefon Diggs from the team after the Patriots came up short against the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl LX in February.

    Diggs is still an unsigned NFL free agent with 8 children to feed.

    Vrabel was hired as head coach of the 6x Super Bowl champions on January 12, 2025.

    He previously served as coaching and personnel consultant for the Cleveland Browns in 2024.

    Vrabel played in the NFL for 14 seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Patriots, and Kansas City Chiefs. He won 3 Super Bowls as a player with the Patriots.

    Vrabel was named NFL Coach of the Year in 2021 and 2025.
