Random Celebrity News

For some values of "random", "celebrity" and "news." It's been a while so some of the links may be a little stale. Nicholas Ballasy at JTN reports Taylor Swift concerts canceled after Austrian police arrest two men for alleged terror attack plot 

Austria police arrested two men for allegedly plotting to carry out terrorist attacks at Taylor Swift concerts that were scheduled to start in Vienna on Thursday. According to reports, authorities said one of the suspects is a 19-year-old who was radicalized online and pledged allegiance to ISIS.

The shows, scheduled for Thursday, Friday and Saturday, have since been cancelled by the venue over fears of an attack, according to the Associated Press. The shows were part of Swift's sold-out Eras tour, and were scheduled to be held at the Ernst Happel Stadium in the country's capital.

Franz Ruf, the public security director at Austria’s interior ministry, said the 19-year-old possessed chemical substances, which are being analyzed, but did not reveal any additional information on the attack so far.

Da Caller,  Officials Say Jordan Chiles Didn’t Actually Win Medal Days After Country’s Prime Minister Boycotted Olympics. The Olympics get harder to stomach every time.

The International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) reinstated Romanian gymnast Ana Barbosu to third place in the women’s floor exercise final Saturday, ESPN reported.

FIG’s decision impacted American gymnast Jordan Chiles, who had initially been awarded the bronze medal. This decision followed a ruling from the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) that nullified a scoring appeal made during the competition that had temporarily elevated Chiles to third place, according to ESPN.

OK, we've gone far enough. It's time to introduce Travis Kelce's ex, Kayla Nicole, to class and defend her from all the wokes who are angry at her for smothering this starfish!
. . .
Never knew we had so many starfish advocates out there. Someone get PETA on the horn, ASAP! Honestly, though, there are worse ways to die. If you have to go out, gasping for your breath while squished against Kayla Nicole ain't the worst way to go. Not the best, but definitely not the worst.

OK, best of the best from the weekend before all of these become old news by tomorrow!

Starfish are merciless killers of shellfish! No mercy here. From NewsWeek, Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot on Collision Course

Actor Rachel Zegler has called for a ceasefire in Gaza—and people are worried that this could make for an awkward Snow White press tour.

The live-action remake of the classic 1937 animated movie, which is set to be released by Disney in 2025, stars Zegler as the titular character and Israeli actor Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen. Both women are no strangers to sharing their opinions online and their social media posts have shown that they have very different thoughts on the ongoing conflict in Gaza.

Newsweek contacted Disney and representatives for Zegler and Gadot for comment via email Monday.

Gadot has been vocal in her support for Israel after Hamas launched an unprecedented attack on southern Israel on October 7, which they said was retribution for worsening conditions for Palestinians. In response, Israel launched hundreds of airstrikes on the Gaza Strip, followed by extensive ground operations.

From RVN, Katy Perry Under Police Investigation Over ‘Lifetimes’ Music Video In Spain

The music video, primarily shot on the islands of Ibiza and Formentera, includes scenes believed to have been filmed on the protected dunes of S’Espalmador, an uninhabited island.

In a recent episode of “The Megyn Kelly Show” podcast (video below), the former Fox News host did not mince words when expressing her feelings about Theron and the film. “It’s so nasty… Charlize Theron and her friends basically cribbed my entire book,” Kelly stated, referring to her memoir, Settle for More.

She went on to accuse Theron of not only taking her story without proper acknowledgment or compensation but also of using the film’s promotional tour as a platform to “dump” on her

“First of all, you stole my book, you stole my very intimate story, and you didn’t pay me anything… You took absolutely no time to actually get to know me,” Kelly continued.

Her frustration was palpable as she accused Theron of misrepresenting her story and criticized Hollywood’s treatment of her narrative. “Hollywood is disgusting. Just take your f—— award and slink away,” she added, highlighting her disdain for the industry’s handling of her personal experience.
