Donald Trump and Kamala Harris continue to battle over who has the biggest crowd at their events.

The former U.S. President claims the Vice President’s campaign “AI’d” a photo of a massive crowd that turned out for her recent rally at an airport.

Trump claims the Harris campaign used AI to generate a “fake crowd picture” at an airport that went viral recently.

Trump wrote in a post on his Truth Social app:

There was nobody at the plane, and she “A.I.’d” it, and showed a massive “crowd” of so-called followers, BUT THEY DIDN’T EXIST!

Trump was probably referring to Harris’ campaign rally at an airport in Romulus, Michigan.

Trump supporters zoomed in on reflections on the side of Harris’ Air Force 2 plane that appear to show the airport tarmac was empty.

Cell phone videos recorded at the rally showed hundreds of real people in an airport hangar as Harris’s plane arrived.

Getty images also snapped photos of the crowd at the airport.

Meanwhile, a Harris supporter pointed to similar reflections on Trump’s 727 plane parked on a tarmac at his campaign rally.

Trump supporters claim the Harris campaign paid homeless people to attend her campaign rally in Atlanta recently.

A popular TikTok influencer named Harry accidentally tweeted a photo of what he said was a half-empty Trump campaign rally. He quickly deleted the photo when he learned it was taken at a Harris campaign rally.

Question: Do you care about the crowd size at campaign rallies, or the border and the price of groceries?

A former Illinois food service director who stole 11,000 cases of frozen chicken wings worth $1.5 million was sentenced Friday to 9 years in prison.

Vera Liddell worked as food service director for ten years at Harvey School District 152. She accepted a plea deal in exchange for a 9-year prison sentence, WGN reported.

Liddell, 68, started her scheme during the 2020 COVID pandemic when funds were flowing to school districts to provide food.

According to the State’s Attorney’s office, from July 2020 until February 2022, Liddell placed hundreds of unauthorized orders through school district vendor Gordon Food Service.

Gordon Food Service told investigators they believed the purchases were authorized and the district paid all of the invoices, prosecutors said.

Liddell used a school cargo van to pick up the cases of chicken. She then sold the chicken to soul food restaurants and to friends and family.

In January 2022, the district business manager conducted a routine mid-year audit and discovered the food service department was more than $300,000 over its annual budget while schools were closed.

An investigation uncovered multiple invoices signed by Liddell for 11,000 cases of frozen chicken wings, prosecutors said.

Prosecutors reviewed surveillance video that showed Liddell arriving at Gordon Food Service to pick up the cases of food in a district cargo van. But the food was never delivered to the schools, prosecutors said.

Schools were closed but the district was still sending meals to students who were learning remotely at home.

Illinois public schools don’t serve chicken wings to students because the wings contain bones.

Rapper Blueface’s father said a judge sentenced him to 4 years in prison on Friday for violating his probation.

Blueface was charged in 2021 with assaulting a security guard at a nightclub in San Fernando Valley.

The “Thotiana” rapper, 27, has been in jail awaiting sentencing since he was arrested in January.

Both of his parents were in the courtroom on Friday, Aug, 9, when Blueface, born Johnathan Porter, was finally sentenced.

Meanwhile, Blueface’s ex-girlfriend and baby mama Chrisean Rock was extradited to Oklahoma this week on an outstanding warrant. Chrisean, full name Chrisean Malone, faces charges for possession of a controlled dangerous substance with intent to distribute and failure to display a tax stamp on a controlled dangerous substance.

The mom-of-one addressed her arrest warrant in a livestream earlier this year. She said she wasn’t going to turn herself in because she had a son to raise.

According to reports, Chrisean faces 8 years in prison on drug related charges when she completes her sentence in Oklahoma and returns to a Los Angeles jail.

Sha’Carri Richardson and Gabby Thomas – running in the rain – led Team USA to Olympic gold in the 4×100 relay final in Paris, France on Friday.

Richardson, 24, won her first Olympic gold medal after her disappointing suspension from the 2020 Tokyo Olympics (which was held in 2021).

Richardson fell short of winning the gold medal in the women’s 100m race on Aug. 3. She placed second behind Julien Alfred of St. Lucia. Alfred won the first ever Olympic medal for St. Lucia.

Atlanta native Gabby Thomas, 27, won her first gold medal in the 200m race on Tuesday night.

Friday’s race was a redemption for Richardson who was suspended from the Tokyo Olympics for testing positive for weed.

Richardson said she smoked weed to cope with the loss of her biological mother.

America now has 10 gold medals in track & field at the Paris Olympics and 28 medals overall.

Megan continues her snake theme in “Mamushi.” The shape shifter transforms into a huge snake and takes aim at the men in a brothel.

The song features Japanese rapper Yuki Chiba who is seen washing the bodies of Megan’s victims.

After her meal, Megan dances with her zombie victims outside the bath house.

She raps:

In the US or Japan, if he meet me, he gon’ bow
I got yen for your friends, if they pretty bring ’em out
Goin’ dumb in Madam Woo, pourin’ sake in they mouth
Told him put me on his plate, bring them chopsticks to the south.

Outrage: Noah Lyles tested positive for COVID before 200m race

American sprinter Noah Lyles sparked outrage among Olympics fans in Paris after he claimed he tested positive prior to the 200-meter final on Thursday.

Lyles finished third with a time of 19.70 seconds behind Botswana’s Letsile Tebogo (19.46 seconds) and American Kenny Bednarek (19.62 seconds).

Lyles collapsed on the track and was taken away in a wheelchair. Later, Lyles announced he tested positive for the COVID virus.

“I was feeling really horrible and knew it was more than just soreness from the 100,” he said, referring to his gold medal run. “I woke up the doctors, tested, and unfortunately, it came up positive.”

However, instead of informing the other runners of his contagious infection, Lyles showed up for the 200m final.

“It’s taken its toll for sure, but I’ve never been prouder of myself for coming out here and getting the bronze medal,” he added.

But Olympic fans were critical of Noah’s selfishness.

One person tweeted: “You hugged Tebogo after the race, knowing you have COVID??? They should arrest YOU!!!”

Others defended Lyles, saying COVID is “just a cold.”

After the 200m race on Thursday, Tebogo called Lyles “arrogant”.

Quincy Wilson made history as the youngest American athlete to compete in an Olympic track & field event. But his inexperience nearly cost Team USA a shot at the men’s 4x400m final.

The high schooler had a rough opening leg of the men’s 4x400m relay in the first round on Friday. Wilson faded fast and handed off the baton dead last.

Fortunately, U.S. sprinters Vernon Norwood, Bryce Deadmon and Christopher Bailey each ran strong legs to finish in 3rd place and advance to the 4x400m final on Saturday.

Wilson responded to the criticism after the race on Friday.

“I wasn’t 100 percent myself, but my team came out here and did it for me,” he said. “I know I had a great three legs behind me. If it was just myself, we’d be in last place, but these guys came out there and gave it their all. From first all the way to fourth leg, they ran their hearts out.”

Wilson declined to explain further. “There’s a lot of different things, but I’d rather not answer,” he said.

Track fans criticized the U.S. coaches for putting a child in the race against grown men.

Wilson wasn’t supposed to be an Olympian. He failed to qualify for the 4x400m at the US Olympic Trials in Eugene, Oregon in June.

However, Wilson’s coach, Joe Lee, confirmed to ESPN that Wilson had been added to the Team USA relay pool as an alternate at the last minute.

The U.S. coaches have a tough decision for Saturday’s 4x400m final. They have to decide whether to put Wilson in the race and risk losing the gold medal.

But if the decision was left up to Vernon Norwood, Wilson would run the opening lap again.

Before the race, Norwood pulled Wilson to the side. “You belong here,” Norwood told the youngster. “This is the Olympics. Nobody in this world is getting this opportunity, so make the most of it.”

LL Cool J teamed up with hip-hop siren Saweetie for a sultry track off his new album, titled The FORCE.

“Proclivities is a fun song about the inner secrets we all have. It’s one of my favorites on the album. Keep it on repeat, baby!” LL said.

In the music video, LL strolls through a strip club packed with beautiful, scantily-clad strippers. He stalks the hallways like a hungry lion searching for meat.

LL’s target is Saweetie. But will he find her before another beauty catches his eye?

The 56-year-old grandfather raps:

    Make the O face for me
    Bounce your a*s on me
    Turn around, bust it open
    That’s a long story.

    Give it to your man rough,
    Baby where the handcuffs?
    I’m a tie you up from the back while we stand up
    Pulling on your hair
    Kiss you from the side
    Keep it right there
    Slingshot ride.

The album also features star-studded collaborations with Eminem, Nas, Snoop Dogg, Rick Ross, and Busta Rhymes.

The rapper-turned-actor said he went back to the drawing board and learned how to rap all over again for his 1st studio album since 2013’s Authentic.

“Going back to the drawing board and learning how to rap again … making sure I was really inspired by the things I was saying. That’s why there isn’t a lot of fluff on this album,” LL said. “The LeBrons, the Stephs, the Jordans and the Kobes, they all go back to the drawing board. They always try to make themselves better. I wasn’t trying to do trendy, and I wasn’t trying to recapture anything I did before,” LL added.

The FORCE is produced by A Tribe Called Quest’s Q-Tip. The album drops September 6 on Def Jam Recordings and Virgin Music Group.

Off the Market: Tia Mowry Introduces Her Boo

Tia Mowry has been off the market for several months now. Apparently, she introduced her new boo 2 years after filing for divorce from actor Cory Hardrict.

In May, the mom-of-two shared a video on her Instagram account, officially introducing her new boo to her followers.

The video, which is dated May 14, shows the actress sharing a cucumber with a woman in a restaurant.

She captioned the video: “Soft launch. Ya’ll ready to meet my boo?”

Rumors swirled that Tia was a closeted lesbian, but there was no official confirmation until now.

In November, Tia opened up to Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager on “Today with Hoda & Jenna” about the moment she realized her marriage was over.

Tia, 46, said she knew her marriage was over when she “really started to focus on my happiness.”

“At the end of the day, it’s about self-love. When you really start to work on yourself, love yourself, know your value, know your worth. Then all of a sudden there’s this awakening. It’s not easy, it’s a hard journey, but at the end of the day, I feel like it’s so, so worth it.”

RMLA / BACKGRID

Tia compared marriage to a college curriculum. She said you spend years studying, then you graduate. She said divorce is like graduating from college. “And at the end, there’s a graduation, there’s a celebration.”

She continued:

“I feel like people look at – when they look at marriage, that success equals longevity. But no, at the end of they day, it’s – are they happy? Are they Thriving? Are they growing? I feel like that is what’s more important… It’s about are you happy? Because life is really short.”
