Jennifer Lopez and her child Emme Muñiz looked glamorous at the Broadway premiere of George Clooney’s “Good Night And Good Luck” in New York City on April 4.

J-Lo, 55, wore a black suede gown, while Emme, 17, wore a men’s tailored black suit and tie with white button down shirt and black loafers.

Last week, Emme also chose to wear a men’s tailored suit to the opening night of Broadway’s “Othello” (starring Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal).

The liberal media celebrated Emme’s “transition” and they noted that Emme prefers “they/them” pronouns.

Jennifer certainly loves the attention her child is getting, but many observers wonder why so many Hollywood children are turning ghey or trans. A recent study shows 30% of Hollywood children identify as LGBTQ+ — that’s triple the national average.

Why do most celebrities have transgender kids?

Personal trainer and reality show star Jillian Michaels says there’s something sinister behind the statistics.

In an op-ed she wrote for DailyMail.com, Jillian, 51, says “transgenderism among the most privileged is seemingly prized.”

Jillian, who is openly lesbian, is pictured with her children Phoenix (left) and Lukensia (right) in 2019.

She said children are “socially transitioned” particularly in schools where transgenderism is “spread through social contagion.”

Jillian suggested that some children who identify as trans are pretending to appease their celebrity parents who prioritize their careers over their kids.

Jillian added: “Now, I am not suggesting that every trans-identifying youth is faking it. But I do believe that parents should be deeply skeptical of the sudden surge in gender dysphoria among children, particularly among adolescent girls, who are more prone to social mimicry, identity struggles, and emotional distress than boys.”

A local deli owner in New York City is giving back to the community in a big way. Wail Alselwi, aka Island Ock, is known for his kindhearted generosity toward middle school children who earn good grades on their report cards.

Students who score 90% or above on their report cards receive $100 cash from Wail, and anything they want in his convenience store.

Wail records the students bringing him their report cards and the big smiles on their faces when he hands them $100 cash. His videos have gone viral and gained millions of views on TikTok.

The cousin of a little girl with a 96 grade average wrote in the comments: “This is my little cousin and lemme tell yall, she is a star in the making. We’re all so proud of her.”

One boy named Delaryan, who had a 91 grade average, loaded up on junk food. When Wail told him to “grab some more stuff,” Delaryan then selected eggs, bread and juice for his mother.

Wail’s generous “Food Grabs for Grades” program began when a 12-year-old boy named Zameir Davis stopped by Wail’s deli and said he wanted to be an honor roll student.

Wail encouraged Zameir every day. He promised Zameir that he could have anything in the store if he improved his grades.

Zameir worked hard to improve his grades and he made the honor roll!

True to his word, Wail told Zameir he could have anything he wanted in the store.

Zameir’s father was grateful for the support. He said in a video, “It truly takes a village and we need more people like him to inspire our youth.”

Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson (left) and Shannon Sharpe aren’t picky when it comes to the women they like to date. The former NFL stars say they love women with battle scars, stretch marks and a FUPA (fat upper pelvic area).

The men shared their preferences during a recent episode of their “Night Cap” podcast. Both men declared their appreciation for stretch marks, aka “tiger stripes”, and FUPAs.

Ochocinco, 47, said that he’s especially fond of women with FUPAs. “I like to grab the FUPA, man,” Chad told his co-host.

Shannon, 56, agreed. “If I press it down – as long as it don’t pop back up – I’m good,” Shannon joked.

Not much is known about Shannon’s love life. There are rumors that he is a member of the LGBTQ+ community. But those rumors have not been confirmed.

On the other hand, Ochocinco has a well-documented dating history. He was formerly married to reality TV star Evelyn Lozada.

Chad has a total of 8 children, including a 3-year-old girl, Serenity, who he shares with his ex-fiancé, “Selling Tampa” star Sharelle Rosado (pictured). They announced their split in 2024.

He has 7 other kids, ages 9-27, with multiple baby mamas. In 2010, 17 women competed for the chance to be Ochocinco’s wife on his reality TV series “Ultimate Catch.”

$147K raised to support family of stabbing suspect, Karmelo Anthony, 17

A fundraiser to support the family of murder suspect Karmelo Anthony has raised over $147,000 in donations. The 17-year-old straight-A student is accused of fatally stabbing 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a track meet in Frisco, Texas.

A GoFundMe page to raise money for the Anthony family was removed. The family launched a campaign on GiveSendGo.com.

So far, supporters have donated over $147,000 to the GiveSendGo fundraiser. Anthony’s parents increased the campaign’s goal to $200,000.

Anthony’s parents wrote in the summary, “The narrative being spread is false, unjust, and harmful. As a family of faith, we are deeply grateful for all of your support during this trying period. Your prayers and assistance mean more to us now more than ever.”

The incident occurred on April 2 at a high school track meet at Kuykendall stadium in Frisco, Texas.

Austin Metcalf, a standout football player at Memorial High School, asked Anthony, a straight-A student at Centennial High School, to leave the Memorial team tent where Anthony had taken shelter from the rain.

Anthony, who is 6′ 1″ and 180 lbs, refused to leave the tent.

A brief scuffle between the 2 teens ended with Anthony stabbing Metcalf in the heart with a butcher knife.

Austin Metcalf took his final breath in the arms of his twin brother, Hunter Metcalf.

Anthony fled the scene but he was quickly captured by police.

The frightened teenager reportedly asked police: “Is he going to be okay?”

He confessed to stabbing Metcalf and he asked cops if the stabbing “could be considered self-defense.”

Anthony told police Metcalf tried to shove him out of the tent. He warned Metcalf, “Touch me again and see what happens.” Witnesses say Anthony reached into a black backpack and pulled out a knife before stabbing Metcalf once in the chest.

The knife was found discarded in the bleachers.

Anthony is being held at the Collin County Jail. His bond is set at $1 million.

His attorney plans to ask a judge to lower Anthony’s bail and release him on house arrest since he is not a flight risk.

A GoFundMe to support the Metcalf family has raised over a quarter of a million dollars.

Metcalf’s father, Jeff Metcalf, told a reporter: “I feel sorry for that individual ’cause he’s now made a mistake that’s gonna cost him.”

The FBI is investigating false social media posts citing a fraudulent autopsy report that claims Metcalf’s cause of death was a drug overdose instead of a stab wound to the heart.

The case has generated national headlines, mainly because Anthony is Black and the victim is White. Anthony’s supporters compare him to Kyle Rittenhouse who was 17 when he gunned down 2 rioters in Kenosha, Wisconsin in 2020.

Social media activist Tariq Nasheed referred to Austin Metcalf as “a suspected white supremacist” in a race-baiting post on X (Twitter).

Meanwhile, Metcalf’s supporters complain about the media coverage in comparison to a “hate crime” in which a White male is accused of killing a Black person.

Texas community activist Charleston White blamed violent rap music for the murder.

Singer Chris Brown caused a buzz online when he asked his fans not to wear red bandanas or red hats during his upcoming concert tour.

Brown announced his “Breezy Bowl XX World Tour” which is set to kick off later this year. Tickets went on sale on April 3 at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster.

In an Instagram post on Saturday, April 5, the “Residuals” singer wrote, “I see a lot of the fans collectively telling team breezy to wear red bandannas to the concert. Just get brown bandanas so y’all won’t run into any problems.”

He added: “I don’t want people to get the wrong impression and promote the wrong thing!”

It’s common knowledge that Brown is affiliated with the Fruit Town Piru set of The Bloods street gang. He reportedly hires Bloods members and they allow him to shoot music videos in their neighborhoods.

He often infuses gang symbols, such as red bandanas and gang hand signs in his music videos.

“And you see this bandana hanging / That means I’m like a bandit, like like a bandit-bandit,” he sings in his hit song “Kiss Kiss” (2007).

Brown reportedly “checks in” whenever he travels through Bloods gang territory.

Singers and rappers who live double lives as gangbangers are on the Department of Justice’s radar. Several high-profile arrests have made headlines recently.

Rollin’ 60s Crips leader Eugene “Big U” Henley and several other gang members were arrested by the feds last month on RICO charges. They are currently sitting in jail without bond in California.

Rare Virus That Killed Gene Hackman’s Wife Kills 3 People in California

The rare virus that killed Gene Hackman’s wife in New Mexico is linked to three more deaths in California.

Health officials say three people in the town of Mammoth Lakes have succumbed to respiratory infections caused by hantavirus, which killed the actor’s wife, Betsy Arakawa.

Arakawa, 65, and Gene Hackman, 95, were found dead in their New Mexico home on February 26. They had been dead for weeks.

Arakawa is believed to have passed away first from hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). Days later, her husband died from heart disease, dehydration and starvation.

Hackman suffered from advanced dementia and was totally dependent on Arakawa.

Officials theorized that Arakawa contracted hantavirus from deer mice droppings while cleaning out her garage.

Health officials announced this week that three people have died from the hantavirus in Mono County since February.

The victims lived in the town of Mammoth Lakes, about 330 miles east of San Francisco, TMZ reported.

Of the three victims, health officials said one person had numerous mice in their home.

Dr. Tom Boo, Mono County Public Health Officer told TMZ the latest case involving hantavirus was “tragic and alarming”, and he doesn’t understand where the deceased individual would have contracted it.

“The occurrence of three cases in a short period has me worried, especially this early in the year,” said Dr. Boo.

Hantavirus spreads to humans from rat/mouse droppings and urine. It is deadly if it gets into the lungs. There is no cure for a virus.

Sexyy Red’s Kentucky fans are furious after she made them wait 7 hours before she walked out on stage at the Rupp Arena in Lexington on March 30.

Rapper Young Thug’s girlfriend, Mariah the Scientist, who opened for Sexyy Red, apologized for the delay. Mariah explained that she was waiting backstage to come out, but the show was disorganized.

“I’ve been in the back waiting for 3 1/2 hours because the show is unorganized af,” Mariah said. “And I’ve never been to Lexington, but this is not the best representation. I don’t know who put this show on, but when you walk home tonight you need to pray to god.”

Cell phone video shows fans waiting impatiently for Red, who was scheduled to perform at 7 p.m. She finally showed up around 2 a.m. and performed to a nearly empty house for about 20 minutes.

Fans who got tired of waiting walked out and demanded refunds. They took to social media to complain about ungrateful celebrities like Sexyy Red who take their money and disrespect them.

Update: Last week it was reported that fitness influencer Ashton Hall was evicted from his Miami penthouse apartment.

According to a source, Ashton reached an agreement with the Brickell Flatiron Condominium Association to remain in the apartment. He posted a new TikTok video tonight (see below).

Originally published on: April 4, 2025 at 2:14 p.m.

Fitness influencer Ashton Hall was surrounded by his assistants as he went to a charity event in Miami.

Ashton is famous for his “morning routine” that includes ice water and banana peel facials.

“Ice facials have definitely seen a resurgence in recent years, largely driven by social media,” board-certified dermatologist Dr. Alexis Stephens of Parkland Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery told USA TODAY.

According to In Touch, Ashton, 29, was sued for making a key fob for a guest to use the building’s amenities free of charge.

Shabba / BACKGRID

The duplicate key fob was deemed a security violation in court documents obtained by In Touch on Friday, March 28.

The Brickell Flatiron Condominium Association claimed Ashton or “someone acting by or through the Tenant” breached “the Association’s security system and improperly cloned the key fob providing access to the common elements, condominium and property,” in October 2024, according to the suit.

According to court paperwork, Ashton paid the condo owner a $15,250 security deposit, and first and last month’s rent in the amount of $30,500 before moving into the $15,250 a month penthouse back in May 2024.

Shabba / BACKGRID

Both Ashton and the condo owner received written notices of the violation in October 2024.

However, Ashton refused to move out and the owner refused to enforce the lease terms.

According to In Touch, the case was dismissed without prejudice by the 11th Judicial Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County, Florida, on Thursday March 27.

The luxury 3-bedroom apartment was the focal point of Ashton’s massively popular “morning routine” videos.

Onijah Robinson is very happy to be back at home in New York after being detained in Dubai.

The petite 4′ 10″ social media star was dressed in a pink outfit with hot pink boots during an outing in New York City on Thursday.

Robinson, 33, went viral after she traveled to Pakistan to marry her teenage pen pal in October. But 19-year-old Nidal Ahmed Memon rejected Robinson and told her his family would never accept her.

Robinson refused to give up. She camped outside his home in Karachi, but the family fled their home in the middle of the night.

Robinson was left stranded in Karachi after her tourist visa expired.

Pakistani officials admitted Robinson to a mental hospital for an evaluation. Then they put her on a plane back home.

Somehow, Robinson ended up in Dubai, where officials were less accommodating than the Pakistanis.

However, Robinson denies reports that she was in a Dubai jail.

“I didn’t go to jail, I was just stuck in Dubai,” she told TMZ. “It was a situation that happened in Dubai that I couldn’t get over at the time and that was it. I was there for a month.”

Robinson says she has a manager, an agent, and a “glam squad.”

In a surprising twist, Robinson claimed she and 19-year-old Memon tied the knot after all.

However, Robinson said he remains in Pakistan while she’s back home in New York.

She isn’t sure if she will ever see Memon again.
