Tom Brady is under fire for a controversial comment he made during a Fox Sports broadcast on Sunday. The former NFL quarterback was reacting to George Pickens, Dallas Cowboys’ wide receiver, looking visibly frustrated on the sidelines during the fourth quarter of the Cowboys-Chicago Bears game. “Those helmets can be … it’s like the dog at home,” Brady said. “Kick the dog, throw the helmet, whatever it takes.” While co-lead of Fox Sports, Kevin Burkhardt, did not react to Brady’s comment about kicking dogs, fans ripped Brady online for the comment. Some viewers claimed his comment “encourages others” to abuse animals. ”Did Tom Brady just insinuate to kick a dog with that comment?” a user posted on X. This is not the first time the retired quarterback’s performance on Fox Sports has been called into question. After his broadcasting debut, critics and pundits called him out for struggling to find words and burping at the end of the first quarter. “I’m learning a lot, believe me,” Brady said.
Actress Jessie Cave, Lavender Brown in the original Harry Potter movies, claimed that she has been banned from attending fan conventions due to her OnlyFans page. Cave launched her OnlyFans page this year, promising viewers sensual hair content, and telling fans her account was “not sexual.” She has also opened up on Substack, claiming she had been barred from the fan conventions. The franchise explained that it’s a “family show and OnlyFans is affiliated with porn,” she said. Cave believed their reasoning was unjust because actors in TV and films often perform sex scenes. “I’m just playing with my hair!” she said. A new Harry Potter TV series is in development. While Cave was upset about being “canceled” by the franchise, she is encouraged that the new show will cultivate new fans. “There’s going to be a new cast now, and it’s a different time.”

The death of Hollywood icon Robert Redford has triggered renewed interest in the unsolved murder of his daughter’s college boyfriend. Shauna Redford had met Sid Wells during their freshman year at the University of Colorado, and they were still dating when, just before he was set to begin his senior year, Wells was fatally shot in his apartment on Aug. 1, 1983. Robert Redford stopped filming The Natural to attend the funeral. According to NBC, Wells told his mother that his new roommate, Thayne Smika, was “weird and unsocial,” and Wells later had trouble collecting rent from him. Following Wells’ murder, the roommate became the prime suspect and was arrested. However, the district attorney at the time did not file formal charges, citing insufficient evidence, and Smika was released. In 1986, Smika disappeared. In 2010, after the district attorney decided to run old evidence through new DNA tests, the case was reopened, and a Boulder district judge signed an arrest warrant for Smika on a charge of first-degree murder. Following the decision, Redford called Boulder District Attorney Stan Garnett to thank him and the Boulder Police for continuing to focus on the case. “I thought [the call] was a positive reflection of Robert Redford’s concern about his daughter and about this young man who’d lost his life very tragically,” Garnett said about his conversation with Redford. On Wednesday, the FBI posted a warrant for Smika on X, offering a $10,000 reward.
The Federal Trade Commission is set to take Amazon to court over claims it illegally tricked millions of people into signing up for its Prime service and made it unnecessarily difficult to quit. The lawsuit, filed in 2023 under the Biden administration, will see prosecutors accuse Amazon of using design tricks known as “dark patterns” to coerce people into signing up for Prime without realizing what they were getting into. Once they were locked into a monthly subscription, the FTC claims, the tech giant made users go through a “labyrinth” process if they wanted to cancel their accounts, requiring customers to “navigate a four-page, six-click, fifteen-option cancellation process,” which included numerous warnings and off-ramps intended to sow confusion and derail the process. So confusing was the process that it was known internally as the “Iliad flow,” the FTC claims, referring to “Homer’s epic about the long, arduous Trojan War.” In contrast, the Jeff Bezos-founded Amazon made it possible to sign up for Prime in just two clicks, and allegedly buried info about recurring charges in the small print. Jury selection for the month-long trial begins on Monday, with prosecutors set to make their opening arguments this week. The FTC is also filing a separate lawsuit against Amazon, accusing it of anticompetitive practices and running afoul of antimonopoly laws.

Sleep can be hard to come by these days. From city noise and snoring partners to late-night scrolling and spiraling thoughts, there’s a lot that can get in the way of a good night’s rest. In fact, research suggests that one in three adults doesn’t get enough sleep. (Hello, fellow insomniacs!)

Harry Potter star Emma Watson may find the acting process itself “freeing,” but says promoting her projects after the fact is a “soul-destroying” hazard of the job. The 35-year-old hasn’t appeared on the big screen since Greta Gerwig’s Oscar-winning 2019 adaptation of Little Women, which seems to be just fine with Watson. “A bigger component than the actual job itself is the promotion and selling of that piece of work, this piece of art,” she told Hollywood Authentic. “The balance of that can get quite thrown off. I think I’ll be honest and straightforward, and say: I do not miss selling things. I found that to be quite soul-destroying.” Still, for Watson, it’s not as simple as just walking away from Hollywood. “I do very much miss using my skill set, and I very much miss the art,” she added. “I just found I got to do so little of the bit that I actually enjoyed.” While Watson shared that what she loves most about acting is how “it’s so freeing” to separate oneself from reality when rehearsing for a part and getting into character, she admits that it can also be “a lot of pressure.” “I don’t miss the pressure,” she said. In 2023, Watson returned to Oxford University—where she had studied between 2011 and 2012 while working on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, the final film in the hugely successful film franchise—to pursue a master’s degree in Creative Writing. She graduated from Brown University in 2014 with a BA in English Literature.
A TV newsreader has been killed during a flying lesson shortly after sharing an excited message online as she climbed aboard. Debora Estrella, 43, was being taught to fly a Cessna by Bryan Ballesteros when they crashed in the north-eastern Mexican state of Nuevo Leon in the city of Garcia on Saturday. The deadly crash in an industrial estate was preceded by her post to Instagram showing the plane that would claim her life, with the caption “guess what.” The Daily Mail also reports her ex-husband, a journalist, posted updates about the crash before knowing his ex-wife was on board. In a horrific twist, he wrote, “A plane has come down. Civil Protection in Nuevo Leon confirmed two people have died in the accident close to the Ciudad Mitras Industrial Estate in Garcia.” The next morning, her colleague, Maria Julia Lafuente, said in a tear-jerking monologue, “How can I say, good morning, happy Sunday, when our hearts and souls are broken?” Unverified footage from multiple angles, posted on X, shows what appears to be the plane doing stunts. One, however, shows the light aircraft drifting slowly to the ground while being circled by a helicopter. The cause of the crash is not currently known.
Jon Bon Jovi has opened up about his son’s decision to marry young and adopt a baby girl. “[Millie Bobby Brown Bongiovi] and Jake [Bongiovi] fell in love, and we just thought, okay we’ll support this, and it’s working out,” the 62-year-old Livin’ on a Prayer singer said on the Dumb Blonde Podcast. Millie Bobby Brown, 21, and Jake Bongiovi, 23, got married in a private ceremony last May. In August, the couple shared on Instagram that they had welcomed a baby girl through adoption. “We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy,” the post read. Brown had previously revealed that she wanted a big family and mentioned on the SmartLess podcast that her mother was 21 when she had her first child. “Immediately that becomes your grandchild… your baby,” said Jon Bon Jovi, speaking about his relationship with the couple’s baby girl. “It’s beautiful, I want to see pictures like every other day, I’m that pain in the butt guy already,” the new granddad added. Bon Jovi married his high school sweetheart, Dorothea Hurley, in 1989, and the couple shares four children. “Our son Jesse [Bongiovi] and his wife are going to have a baby,” Bon Jovi revealed on Monday’s podcast. Jesse Bongiovi, 31, married his wife, Jesse Light, 31, in the same Las Vegas chapel as his parents. “Suddenly, it’s a shift again,” the American singer-songwriter said, reflecting on the expansion of his family.
Claire Rehfuss and Derek Xiao have officially broken up after four years together. On Saturday, they posted a joint Instagram statement to their stories announcing the split: “After 4 wonderful years together, Derek and I have decided to end our relationship. Nothing dramatic happened, just the realization that we’re different people who want different things. We still care deeply about each other, are grateful for the time we shared, and will remain friends.” They then thanked everyone for “all the love and support,” before explaining their wishes going forward. “We hope that by sharing we can be given the space and grace to move forward without any speculation or drama.” Both Rehfuss and Xiao signed off on the statement. The breakup comes four years after the pair first met on Season 23 of Big Brother in 2021. They confirmed they were dating a few months after their season aired via Instagram. A year later, the couple went on to win The Amazing Race together, taking home the $1 million prize.

Supermodel Karlie Kloss has welcomed her third child-and first daughter-into the world. The former Victoria’s Secret Angel, 33, revealed on Instagram Sunday that she and her husband, Joshua Kushner, 40, gave birth to their daughter, Rae Florence, on Sept. 18. “Welcome to the world Rae Florence 9.18.25✨🙏🥹,” Kloss captioned post that obscured the newborn’s face, but showed her loosely clutching Kloss’s finger. Kloss announced her pregnancy via Instagram in March, captioning her post, “Three’s a party 🥹🫶🎉.“ Rae Florence is Kloss’s third child with Kushner, whom she married in 2018. Three years after tying the knot, the couple welcomed son Levi, 4, and two years later, Elijah, 2, joined the family. Kushner, whose brother is President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, also posted a photo Sunday of Rae Florence, sharing a peek on Instagram of the newborn wrapped in a blanket with a pink hat on.
Student visa arrivals to the U.S. have collapsed, sinking to their lowest level since the COVID-battered 2021, according to new government data. Just over 313,000 students entered the country on visas last month, down 19 percent from a year ago—the fifth straight month of declines, the International Trade Administration reported. Through August, arrivals are off nearly 12 percent for the year. The slump was sharpest among students from Asia, which accounts for the majority of U.S. student visas. Asian arrivals fell 24 percent to about 191,000, including a 45 percent drop from India and a 12 percent decline from China. Africa saw the steepest percentage fall, down 33 percent, though from a smaller base. Western Europe showed the smallest drop, less than 1 percent. The slide coincides with President Donald Trump’s “America First” immigration policies. This summer, the administration temporarily paused student visa interviews, added social media reviews to vetting, and pushed through new restrictions on H-1B visas for foreign workers—including a $100,000 application fee. The result is a mounting backlog at U.S. consulates and billions in lost tuition revenue for American universities.
