The star, who recently turned 43 on Monday, took to Instagram with a series of disconcerting videos addressing the paparazzi, who she accused of making her look like she’s got a mask on while carrying a torch.

“I think my friend accidentally gave that to me, I don’t know,” she can be heard saying in the first clip.

She then went on to talk about her birthday, stating that she had turned 42, even though she’s technically 43 now.

As the video progressed, the ‘Toxic’ hitmaker went on to say that she’s only five years old and that she’s going to kindergarten.

Spears added that the media have also always been “incredibly cruel” to her. She acknowledged that while she is “not perfect by any means,” it is still not an excuse for them being “extremely mean and cruel.”

“And that’s why I’m moving to Mexico,” she concluded the video.

The video comes over a year after the singer got divorced from her then-husband Sam Asghari.

The pair called it quits in August 2023 after only 14 months of marriage though they were together for almost six years prior.

The couple initially met back in 2016 when the 30-year-old personal trainer earned himself a spot as a performer in the singer’s ‘Slumber Party’ music video. From a professional relationship, the two entertainers quickly moved to a more intimate one after spending some quality time together.

However, soon after exchanging vows in 2022, the couple decided to go their separate ways with Asghari citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason behind the split.

“The divorce was amicable and the prenup was not challenged,” a source told PEOPLE at the time. “Britney is continuing to flex her freedom and is moving on.

“The report that she is in financial distress is false and she is not on any lease for him,” they added.

Initially, things seemed to get a little chaotic, with the two going back and forth in the press. However, it seems as though they’ve managed to bury the hatchet and appreciate their love for what it was.

In her memoir, The Woman in Me, Spears referred to her former partner as a “gift from God.”

“I have an appreciation for how stable he is,” an excerpt from the memoir read. “I love that he doesn’t drink. He’s a gift from God. And to find out that he and I were about to have a child together made me feel giddy.”

In another section, she also added: “He’s such an inspiration and I’m grateful.

“The timing of the end of the conservatorship was perfect for our relationship; we were able to establish a new life together, without limitations, and get married,” she wrote.

Upon hearing the kind remarks, Page Six reported that Asghari was pretty chuffed over Spears’ praise, stating: “That made me smile, to be honest. I’m freakin’ proud of her, and I hope she takes over the world.”

In a candid new interview during the Wicked press tour, the 31-year-old singer and actress shared her experiences of being in the public eye since her teenage years.

Fighting back tears, Grande reflected on the constant evaluation she’s faced: “I have been a specimen in a petri dish since I was 16 or 17, so I have heard it all.”

She highlighted the challenges of growing up in the spotlight, noting that even well-intentioned remarks can be damaging.

“Even if you go to Thanksgiving dinner and someone’s granny says, ‘Oh my God, you look skinnier, what happened?’ or ‘You look heavier, what happened?’ That is something that is uncomfortable and horrible no matter where it is happening.”

Grande stressed the importance of refraining from commenting on others’ appearances, stating, “I think today in society there is a comfortability that we shouldn’t have at all commenting on others’ looks, appearance, what they think is going on behind the scenes, or health, or how they present themselves.”

She described this tendency as “really dangerous” for everyone involved.

Earlier this year, Grande took to TikTok to address similar concerns, revealing that her previous appearance, which some considered “healthy,” was during a period when she was at her lowest point.

She shared, “I was on a lot of antidepressants and drinking on them and eating poorly… but that, in fact, wasn’t my healthy.”

The pop star’s openness has sparked widespread support from fans and fellow celebrities alike. Model Bella Hadid echoed Grande’s sentiments, urging kindness and understanding, and emphasizing that “you never know what someone is going through.”

Grande’s message serves as a powerful reminder of the impact words can have and the importance of approaching others with compassion and respect.

As she continues to navigate her career and personal life in the public eye, her advocacy for mental health and self-acceptance remains a beacon for many facing similar challenges.

Dubbed The Doll, ‘a dangerous hit-woman’ has been arrested following several high profile murders

True crime fans might have someone new to investigate after a ‘dangerous hitwoman’ known as ‘The Doll’ has been arrested, and some are already joking that they ‘can’t wait for this Netflix series.’

The 23-year-old Colombian has been given the alias ‘La Muneca’ or ‘The Doll’, and she has now been arrested in connection to several targeted gangland killings.

Local press reports that one of the killings included her ex-lover as one of the victims.

Karen Julieth Ojeda Rodriguez was seen being taken away in handcuffs, following her alleged involvement in an ambush murder.

The incidents took place in the municipality of Barrancabermeja.

According to Spanish language news outlet Libertad Digital, ‘The Doll’ is reported to be connected to a series of crimes linked to the Los de la M gang.

It has not yet been revealed what charges she will face.

Reports on Infobae allege that Rodriguez has been working with a small group of hitmen in the region.

Her arrest is in connection with an ambush assassination of her ex on July 23.

Magdalena Medio Police say her ex-boyfriend, Deyvy Jesus, was caught unaware, after The Doll called him and persuaded him to meet.

Law enforcement claim Rodriguez lured her former lover to the scene of the crime so they could solve a money dispute.

Devvy ended up being shot multiple times by two men on a motorbike and police claim the hit was ordered by ‘The Doll’.

Rodriguez was arrested alongside Paula Valentina Joya Rueda, aged 24.

She has the less glamorous moniker of the two, known as ‘Gorda Sicaria’, which translates as ‘Fat Hitwoman’ says Libertad Digital.

A third accomplice called ‘Leopoldo’ was also arrested.

Police say they recovered a 9mm pistol and a revolver while making the arrests, and are currently working to establish whether either gun is the murder weapon.

Infobae reports Lieutenant Colonel Muaricio Herrara of the Magdalena Medio Police as saying: “With the capture of alias La Muneca and alias Leopoldo, a period of calm has been created in the region. These arrests mark progress in the dismantling of criminal structures responsible for the recent homicides.”

Social media users have flooded X (formerly Twitter) with posts thanks to ‘The Doll’s’ scowl in police photos.

“I can fix her,” someone wrote.

“So she’s single?” added another.

Others called for a documentary or series to be made about her and they’ve already suggested an actress: “Aubrey Plaza could nail that role”.

“I would watch three seasons,” a final one said.

Expert explains how Hawk Tuah girl’s fans were ‘scammed’ as they claim they ‘lost life savings’ after buying cryptocurrency

People have been calling for Haliey Welch to face jail time over this alleged scam

People in the cryptospace are raging after buying into the Hawk Tuah girl’s new coin and one expert has insisted she and her team have actively ‘scammed’ fans.

The Hawk Tuah sensation, real name Haliey Welch, has been enjoying her fame since shooting to viral notoriety earlier this year.

And just like everyone who goes viral, she looked to capitalize on it, but in doing so Welch has made quite a few fans unhappy.

She decided to hop into the cryptocurrency industry and debuted her own meme coin called $HAWK.

How the Simpsons ‘predicted’ the Hawk Tuah Girl

The coin’s value completely tanked within 20 minutes of its launch – plummeting from as much as $490 million to just $41 million, leaving fans out of pocket.

It has left investors claiming she carried out a rug pull, which is where creators of cryptocurrency sell off their stock leading to prices crashing and those who put money into it with coins worth next to nothing.

YouTube investigator Stephen ‘Coffeezilla’ decied to confront Welch and her team about the coin and has gone as far as to claim that they have ‘scammed’ people out of their money.

Speaking in a live stream to Welch and her team, he said: “This is one of the most miserable, horrible launches I’ve ever seen. I’ve been tracing it on the chain for a while. You guys generated over a million dollars in fees, while your fans got rug pulled. There were snipers, but there was also insider trading directly linked to y’all’s creator accounts.”

Now, in a YouTube video, he has broken down what he believes happened and reiterated his claim that they actively scammed people out of their money.

He said: “I want to break down the Hawk Tuah scam, I think people are confused with this kind of stuff.

“I want to start with this big tweet that kind of set it all off. That would be this tweet by Bubblemaps, which showed that 96 percent of the supply was controlled by the team and was being sent out to a bunch of smaller wallets.

“The implication being that some of them might be dumping on you.

“Pretty quickly the Hawk Tuah girl came in to copy and paste what her team told her to say which said ‘Team hasn’t sold one token and 1 KOL was given 1 free token, we tried to stop snipers as best we could through high fees at the start of the launch.’”

Coffeezilla went on to say that Welch’s team was ‘lying by omission’ when they say the team hasn’t sold one token because they allegedly ‘presold the tokens’.

He added: “They sold them to a bunch of investors with a presale and then those people were unlocked immediately upon launch.

“It is essentially a lie to say that her team didn’t sell tokens, well they presold them and then those investors then dumped on your fans, that is the problem.”

However, Welch has denied these accusations and has defended hers and her ‘teams’ actions during a live stream on Twitter.

“Hawkanomics: Team hasn’t sold one token and not 1 KOL was given 1 free token,” she tweeted in a copy and pasted message.

“We tried to stop snipers as best we could through high fee’s in the start of launch on @MeteoraAG. Fee’s have now been dropped.”

The 69-year-old designer attended the event alongside longtime friend Sir Elton John, who composed the show’s music.

The musical, based on the beloved 2006 film starring Anne Hathaway, drew a star-studded crowd, including Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour – widely believed to have inspired the story’s central character – and actress Vanessa Williams.

Donatella dazzled on the red carpet in a sheer, heavily embellished bronze mini-dress layered over a black sweetheart neckline bodysuit.

She completed the look with knee-high brown leather platform boots and accessorized with a red AIDS awareness ribbon, honoring the Elton John AIDS Foundation, the gala’s beneficiary.

Ariana Grande decided not to hold back anymore on the issue

Becoming a celebrity from a young age can take its toll, and Ariana Grande dismissed the idea that she is going to let comments about her body get her down.

Ariana Grande held back tears before she revealed how she deals with comments on her body.

The star highlighted how she has had to deal with criticism about her since she was teenager, and explained how she deals with it now.

During an interview for the Wicked press tour, Grande revealed how she remains defiant to the constant criticism and comments she receives.

She also encouraged other people to take her approach.

Speaking to French journalist Sally about the expectation to look perfect, she said: “I have been doing this in front of the public… I have been a specimen in a petri dish since I was 16 or 17 so I have heard it all.

“I have heard every version of it, I have heard what is wrong with me and then you fix it and it is wrong for different reasons but that is everything from….even the simplest thing with your appearance.

“You are young and you are hearing all sorts of things, it is hard to protect yourself from that noise.

“I think it is something that is uncomfortable no matter what scale you are experiencing it on.”

Grande explained that people have becoming very comfortable talking about other peoples’ body and highlighted that this shouldn’t be the case, celebrity or not.

She continued: “Even if you go to thanksgiving dinner and someones granny says ‘oh my God you look skinnier what happened’ or ‘you look heavier what happened’.

“That is something that is uncomfortable and horrible no matter where it is happening, no matter the scale that it is happening on.

“I think today in society there is a comfortability that we shouldn’t have at all commenting on others looks, appearance, what they think is going on behind the scenes, or health or how they present themselves.

“There is a comfortability that people have commenting on that that is really dangerous, I think it is dangerous for all parties involved.

“I think I am really lucky to have the support system that I have and to know and trust that I am beautiful and so are you and so are you.”

Grande closed her point by joking that she needed to get it off her chest and said she doesn’t invite the comments in anymore, as they simply aren’t welcome.

She reiterated the point that she has work to do and a life to live, and that she isn’t going to get derailed by her critics.

It’s not everyday you see something like this

A Minnesota woman was driving home when she stumbled across an unusual stormy scene in a viral photograph some are talking about years later for making them feel ‘uneasy’.

Theresa Birgin Lucas, of Bemidji, was heading home after visiting her family at a hospital in Rochester, Minnesota, when she stumbled across a rare stormy sight.

She was traveling on Highway 64 when clouds rolled over ahead into what some have described as a ‘seascape of crashing ocean waves’ – though the mom didn’t even notice at the time.

The seascape in the sky has hit a nerve with some viewers (

In her post on Facebook, Theresa explained she snapped the picture to give her daughter a heads-up of her whereabouts as she had become worried.

Theresa wrote: “She was freaking out and wanted to know how much longer it was before I got home, so I seriously snapped that photo and said ‘I’m close to Akeley’.”

She claims she didn’t even look at the image until she was home and her daughter pointed out it ‘looked pretty cool’.

Commenting on the bizarre cloud formation, Theresa told the news outlet KVRR: “It seriously looks like the sky is going to unzip.”

She promptly posted the shot to social media where it immediately took off and went viral.

The photograph captured viewers from all over the globe with people far and wide asking her about the stunning scene.

Theresa joked: “I should be giving credit to my fraidy cat daughter.”

When some queried if the image was photoshopped or AI-generated, Theresa confirmed to PetaPixel that it was taken on an iPhone 8.

She explained: “It truly was just a quick picture taken off my iPhone 8, which cracks me up.

“It is a Live Photo — it’s funny to watch it, music playing and bug splats on my windshield!

“I really like the beauty in the photo knowing that nothing has been touched.”

The viral snap is now making the rounds again as the ‘seascape in the sky’ continues to hit a nerve.

Users on Reddit said they have been staring at the photograph, unable to tear away and thinking ‘the waves are gonna crash on the road’.

Another wrote: “It actually makes me feel uneasy. I can’t unsee a giant deadly wave.

“I don’t like looking at it.”

As for the phenomenon itself, KVRR meteorologist, Mariah Bush, explained Theresa’s image is ‘very rare’ indeed.

The expert said: “My initial thought was maybe some basic clouds, cumulus nimbus clouds, or even a shelf cloud, but then after further looking there are some clouds I have never even seen before myself.

“So, pretty unique, actually.”

Theresa told FOX 35 News: “I was just lucky to be in the right time at the right place. Not sure why but I was!”

Having named the photo, Ocean in the Sky, Theresa entered the snap in the Minnesota State Fair competition in 2022.

Adult star reveals the surprising part of her body that men are banned from touching

An adult star has opened up about her work, including one part of her body that she doesn’t allow her co-stars to touch.

Evie Rees is a star in the adult film industry and a prominent figure in the Fantasi universe.

The welsh star boasts 16,500 followers on Instagram and prides herself on her unique image.

Although her line of work includes her getting up close and personal with others, there is one part of her body that she won’t allow anyone to touch.

Rees sat down with the Daily Star to reveal all.

“You can do whatever you want, but don’t touch my hair!” Rees emphasized.

Rees revealed that her distinctive hair is more than just a feature – it’s a vital part of her personal brand.

Styled to perfection, her hair is a key component of her image, and any disruption could ruin the overall aesthetic of her scenes.

Recalling one rare moment on set, Rees said she had to stop filming after a fellow actor grabbed her hair. It was the only time in her career that she’s had to enforce such a boundary.

Explaining her attachment to her hair, Rees shared: “My hair is the most ‘me’ part of me aside from how I dress, and it’s my favorite color after all! It also makes me stand out and adds to how memorable my brand is.”

She added: “If you see me at an event, you know it’s me, even from a distance. Half of my hair isn’t real, so the way I style it is very particular, and if it’s pulled or messed up on set, it can take ages to fix.”

Rees also opened up about the personal journey that led to her unique hairstyle.

Years ago, a change in her medication caused her hair to fall out dramatically within weeks.

To restore her look, she turned to a hair system – essentially a custom toupee designed to replicate her natural hair.

“After about a year, my natural hair grew back, but the added thickness of the hairpiece means I don’t have to touch up my roots as often. Just meant I kind of never stopped using it!” she explained.

While Rees is open to performing in “rough scenes” for her content, she remains protective of her hair, which she believes is essential for continuity and maintaining her signature image.

“You can spank me, do all sorts of things, but when it comes to my hair, hands off!” she reiterated.

Her emphasis on protecting her locks occasionally draws criticism, with some calling her approach excessive.

However, Rees doesn’t mind the jokes or comments, viewing them as part of her unique persona.

“It’s a running joke among my friends. I’m like that with my makeup too though! However, my current ‘fake’ hair is on clips and not sewn in, so I’ll occasionally let other people wear it and walk around looking like me – which is hilarious!” she said.

Rees believes her look has played a significant role in her career. “It’s less my role in the industry and more so my brand that it’s important for. But having such a noticeable brand has definitely helped me solidify my place in the industry for sure,” she said.

Man made most expensive pizza order in history after using $1,000,000,000 worth of Bitcoin to pay for two pizzas

It took four days before someone took up Laszlo Hanyecz’s offer of trading 10,000 bitcoins for any two large pizza

Laszlo Hanyecz is the Florida man who bought two pizzas using 10,000 bitcoins – but his reason for doing so is actually pretty epic, although I’m sure he won’t see it that way anymore.

Man who spent 10,000 bitcoin on two pizzas
On May 18, 2010, Hanyecz made history as he took to a Bitcoin Forum to write: “I’ll pay 10,000 bitcoins for a couple of pizzas … like maybe 2 large ones so I have some left over for the next day.

“I like having left over pizza to nibble on later. You can make the pizza yourself and bring it to my house or order it for me from a delivery place, but what I’m aiming for is getting food delivered in exchange for bitcoins where I don’t have to order or prepare it myself, kind of like ordering a ‘breakfast platter’ at a hotel or something, they just bring you something to eat and you’re happy!”

“I like things like onions, peppers, sausages, mushrooms, tomatoes, pepperoni, etc… just standard stuff no weird fish topping or anything like that. I also like regular cheese pizzas which may be cheaper to prepare or otherwise acquire.

“If you’re interested please let me know and we can work out a deal. Thanks, Laszio.”

You’ve got to give it to him, he knew what he wanted.

It took four days for someone to take him up on the deal – a British man who ordered Hanyecz two Papa John’s pizzas for $25 – and even then, it was a bargain as 10,000 bitcoins held the value of $41.

Just nine months later, the currency matched that of the US dollar – meaning that those 10,000 bitcoins cost $10,000.

Following the successful transaction, Hanyecz took to the platform to write: “I just want to report that I successfully traded 10,000 bitcoins for pizza.”

He included a picture of him and his two sons with the two large pizzas, adding ‘thanks jercos’.

But what was the epic reason for doing so then?

Speaking to 60 Minutes correspondent Anderson Cooper during his first TV interview, he said: “I honestly thought it would be really cool if I could say, ‘Hey, I just traded this, you know, open source internet money for a real world good.”

It was one of the first ever transactions for a physical object using bitcoin.

The current value of 10,000 bitcoins is $1,024,825,000 – making each of those pizzas worth $512,412,500 today.

Sophie Rain has issued a warning about OnlyFans

Popular OnlyFans creator Sophie Rain has issued an honest message to other women after she revealed she has earned more than $40,000,000 from the subscription platform this year.

The eye-watering amount of money was revealed by Rain, who shared how much she had earned from November 2023 to November 2024, with a screenshot from her OnlyFans account showing a gross income of $43,477,695 (£34,069,290).

As part of the humungous pot of cash she had accumulated from people paying for her photos and videos, she revealed that just one fan had in fact sent her more than $4.7 million of that by themselves.

“Big thank you to my top spender for being there since the beginning,” she posted.

Still only 20 years old, the USA native revealed her earnings in a TikTok video with fellow OnlyFans creator, Camilla Araujo, with Araujo revealing Rain had raked it $400,000 in just the last seven days before filming the clip.

Not everyone has believed Rain’s revelation, though, with some calling it out as an alleged publicity stunt for the press to pick up.

Adam22, a podcaster and adult star himself, shared the top spender post, adding: “Everyone I’ve talked to who works in the OnlyFans industry agrees these numbers are fake and would kindly request you post screen recordings.”

Real name Adam Grandmaison, he added: “I’m not ‘mad’ I just think y’all should know this is marketing and not news. Yeah, she’s very popular but her management team are faking her numbers to get media attention (and it’s working).”

Rain hit back at Adam22 directly, posting a screen recording of her photo on her OF account to show the earnings were legit.

“Nothing is being faked. Hope this helps,” she simply responded with.

With Rain’s earnings – and having to defend the numbers as being real – going viral, she issued a statement to those who were checking out her social media.

And in it, she issued a warning to women who might see what she has earned and be tempted to venture in to creating their own subscription adult content on OnlyFans.

“I do not want girls to think, ‘oh if Sophie Rain is making this I should do it too’,” Rain posted over on X (formerly Twitter).

She added: “This career is not sunshine and rainbows 24/7 and if you don’t make it big, it will NOT be worth it.

“Anyone who is doing it I wish you all success, but please don’t quit your jobs for this.”

So while she has made it rain (sorry), she is saying OF is like any success story in any industry.

The cream of the crop doesn’t showcase what it is like for everyone; some OF creators have publicly said they wished they had never posted nudes.
