Chris Johnson's Heartfelt Letter Sparks Conversations About NFL and ALS New

Chris Johnson's Heartfelt Letter Sparks Conversations About NFL and ALS

Former Tennessee Titans running back Chris Johnson is reflecting on his NFL career — and the potential role it had in his ALS diagnosis. Johnson, 40, published a letter to his four kids in the Players’ Tribune on Thursday, September 10, where he drew a link between his football days and his diagnosis, which he went public with in June. “I’ve seen a lot of neurologists at this point and been to basically every major ALS clinic in the country, and in my experience, as soon as you say you played football it’s like, ‘Ahh, OK,’” he wrote. “Almost like an understanding, you know? I read one study, and from my understanding, it found that former NFL players were nearly four times as likely to develop and pass away from ALS compared with the U.S. male population overall. That was a shock.” He added, “And to be clear, your dad’s not an expert, and that’s just one study, and there might be other environmental factors at play. Anybody can get ALS. But obviously, I can’t help but wonder if there’s any connection between my career and where I am now.” Chris and his wife, Brittany, share four kids, who he addressed as Honey Buns, CJ, Kaden and Lee in his letter. A three-time Pro Bowler, Chris played 10 seasons in the NFL, mostly with the Titans, and was named NFL Offensive Player of the Year in 2009. He retired in 2017. Almost a decade later, Chris is not looking to discourage his kids from playing football, despite the possible connection to his ALS. “Your football journey is yours,” he wrote. “Be fearless, be you, and don’t let anyone stand in the way of your dreams. The game is a lot safer now than when I was playing. And hopefully it just keeps on getting safer.” Chris first shared his diagnosis in an appearance on Good Morning America alongside his wife, who said she is still holding out hope for a miracle. “All I could think about was our kids and how young they are,” she said. “You’re in denial. You want it to be anything else. You want the doctors to be wrong. The life that we previously had is now a thing of the past. But we’re still hopeful. We’re hopeful that a breakthrough will happen, or that a miracle will happen.” Chris also sent a message to his kids that day, telling them via Instagram that “I love you more than you’ll ever know.” “You’ve stepped into responsibilities no child should ever have to carry,” he wrote. “You’ve helped take care of me, encouraged me on the hard days, and reminded me every day why I refuse to give up. Watching you shoulder a burden that isn’t fair has been one of the hardest parts of the journey, but you’ve done it with so much love. Everything I do is for you.”

Megyn Kelly's Bold Plea to Erika Kirk: Step Down and Heal New

Megyn Kelly's Bold Plea to Erika Kirk: Step Down and Heal

One year after Charlie Kirk was shot and killed, Megyn Kelly is hopeful that Erika Kirk will reevaluate her position within her late husband’s nonprofit organization, Turning Point USA. “I personally would like to see her take some personal time just so she can remove herself from the nonstop battering ram that is heading up a political organization in the United States of America, and allow herself a year to just work on healing,” Kelly, 55, shared on the Thursday, September 10, episode of Piers Morgan Uncensored on YouTube. “Helping her kids heal and herself heal. I don't know what she's going to do, but that's my prayer for her.” According to Kelly, it has been “very painful” to watch her “dear friend” suffer and deal with critics in a time of grief. “The overwhelming suffering has been caused by Charlie's murder and not by the internet nonsense, but that's been an added burden on her,” she claimed to host Piers Morgan. “There's no question, and I don't like it. I wish it weren't happening. I wish people would move on and just see the evidence that's there.” Kelly continued, “But I think part of the reason this is happening is because Erika stayed in the public eye as the CEO of Turning Point, and therefore, in some ways, criticism of her is fair game.” While Kelly said the conspiracy theories surrounding Charlie’s death are “all nonsense to me,” the criticisms of Erika's behavior or public appearances are more fair game if she’s the head of a political organization. “People who think that she's not grieving correctly. Look, all I can say, they're entitled to their opinions. I don't share their opinions, but I can't censor their opinions either,” she said. “The way Erika could avoid that is by not being the CEO of Turning Point, and she and I have had many conversations about this together.” Founded in 2012, Turning Point USA is a nonprofit organization that advocates for conservative politics on high school, college and university campuses. One goal is “to empower generations of patriots to stand for freedom, defend liberty and win the American culture war.” “I think she feels very strongly that she was the only one who could get the organization through at least the first year,” Kelly said in her latest interview. “And she's done that — miraculously and heroically, she's done that.” Charlie was shot and killed while speaking at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025. He was 31 years old. Accused killer Tyler Robinson was later arrested and charged with aggravated murder and six other counts. He has pleaded not guilty. Days before the first anniversary of Charlie’s death, Erika, 37, penned a personal op-ed for The New York Times about grief. “I am still learning how to walk through each day carrying the grief I feel for my Charlie. Some days I have a vague understanding of God’s plan, others I don’t, but I trust Him completely,” she wrote via X on Monday, September 7. “He is my only strength. I also know grief can be lonely, and sometimes hearing someone else put words to it makes us feel a little less alone. … Suffering does not get the final word. Only God does.”

Aaron Rodgers' Shocking Claim About Shailene Woodley Post-Engagement New

Aaron Rodgers' Shocking Claim About Shailene Woodley Post-Engagement

Aaron Rodgers made a shocking claim about his ex-fiancée Shailene Woodley during a dramatic interview about his life both on and off the football field.  “I dated Shailene. I propose and she says yes,” Rodgers, 42, said on the Thursday, September 10, episode of the “Not Just Football” podcast. “Maybe she felt like she was forced to make a decision. She could have said no. But a couple days after that, she tells me, ‘You know, before we get married, I gotta go f*** this guy.’” Rodgers and Woodley, 34, publicly announced their engagement in February 2021. It was confirmed in early 2022 that the couple had split before making it to the altar.  “Her story is that I ruined her life and gave her crazy depression because I left her,” Rodgers continued. “But the actuality is, she told me that and then she took off the ring by March [2021]. I proposed in December [2020]. Took off the ring by March. We had a couple times where we tried to get reunited and nothing ever happened. There wasn’t even a relationship in ‘22 to break off.” The quarterback continued, “She literally told me, ‘I don’t want to be with you’ after we tried to have some kind of reconciliation in 2021. There’s just a lot of narratives out there that are just not true.” Us has reached out to Woodley for comment.  Rodgers sternly urged his “exes” like Woodley and former NASCAR driver Danica Patrick to halt their “narratives.” “It’s been years,” he said. “What are you talking about? You’re not relevant. Stop talking about me. Move on with your life. Live your life.” Rodgers said his exes are “lying about what actually happened,” calling himself “a good partner.” In September 2024, Woodley explained that the dissolution of her relationship with Rodgers had left her with “a broken heart that healed and broke again.” “I fell in love over and over with unavailability,” she told Bustle. “I’m very open as a human. I love easy and I care easy, but I do not love lightly, and I do not care lightly.” Woodley continued at the time, “It’s really taken me a lot of time to understand that it’s not on me to fix or heal or do anything about [a relationship] other than protect the deep care and love that I have for the world and for my people. Ultimately, that has helped me walk away without the need to understand why certain things didn’t play out the way that I may have desired them to.”

73-Year-Old Caroline Vee's Bold Response to Critics of Her Younger Lovers New

73-Year-Old Caroline Vee's Bold Response to Critics of Her Younger Lovers

A 73-year-old woman who spent 40 years celibate before becoming an escort has given a brutal response to people who question her relationships with men in their 20s. Caroline Vee opened up about her dramatic change in lifestyle while appearing on the Tea At Four podcast with Virgin Island star Marianne Banda. Gran gives brutal response to criticism over sex with 20-year-olds Caroline Vee hit back at those criticizing her for sex with 20-year-olds. Credit: Four Nine/Tea At Four Having been a devout Christian for much of her life, Caroline says everything changed when she experienced a "sexual awakening" at the age of 57. She was asked whether becoming an escort had changed her outlook, and admitted it had completely transformed the way she viewed sex, dating, and relationships. "Oh gosh, yes. But as I started to meet guys, I realized that you can have fun with guys of any age." However, she knows that some people find her relationships with younger men difficult to understand, adding: "Some are taboo, you know, like some things I’ve done it’s like, ‘How dare you s*** a 20-year-old?’" Caroline, though, doesn't appear particularly concerned by the criticism, quipping: "Why not?" Caroline went on to explain that entering the escort industry has given her a newfound sense of confidence. "I feel so confident in myself now." She continued: "I can get my sexy outfit on, stand in front of the mirror while I’m preparing for my client and think, ‘Yeah girl, you’ve got this. Sexy BBW (big beautiful woman) granny and everybody wants you. Bring it on.’" Caroline also said her experiences with younger clients have challenged some of the assumptions she once had about men. She claims some of her younger clients can be particularly affectionate and enjoy developing a deeper connection with her. Asked what has surprised her most about the men she has met, Caroline said: "I still tend to think that men just have one thing on their mind and that’s all they want. "But to then meet guys that actually are not that blinkered and narrow-minded and they can actually control what’s in their pants and it is a really lovely thing to discover." The 73-year-old reveals why she began sex work at 57 Caroline has previously explained that she never particularly enjoyed sex when she was younger. After losing her virginity at 16, she ultimately went on to spend approximately four decades without sex – but insists she didn't feel as though she was missing out. "To be honest, I was never frustrated or anything that I couldn’t. I wasn’t being tortured or anything, or restricted. "It's like, if you’ve never done something, or if you didn’t enjoy it, you’re not going to miss it." That changed when Caroline reached 57 and joined a dating website. She began receiving interest from men, including some as young as 18, and says the experience sparked her "sexual awakening". Caroline subsequently left her church, began dating, and started visiting swingers clubs before becoming an escort in 2017. Caroline has also opened up about the types of fantasies clients approach her about, revealing that many are connected to her age. After years working as an escort, she says very little surprises her anymore. "You get to the point when you've done more or less what I’ve done, that you're not shocked anymore with what they come up with." She explained that clients will often message her before revealing a particular fantasy. "Because when they message you, they sort of say, ‘can I ask you something, I’ve had this fantasy?’ And you wait and you think, ‘I wonder what this one’s gonna be?’" But Caroline says the requests are often far less shocking than people might expect. "And usually, it's quite normal. They just want me to be their granny, you know, or their aunty or whatever. "And I go, ‘Yeah that’s no problem at all.’" Having spent most of her adult life celibate, Caroline's journey has taken her down a path she could hardly have predicted – and she appears more than comfortable with the choices she's opted for.

Gillian Anderson's Bold Revelation: Why Her Pansexual Identity Matters New

Gillian Anderson's Bold Revelation: Why Her Pansexual Identity Matters

Acclaimed actress Gillian Anderson has chosen a specific label to describe her sexuality, opening up in a candid new interview about her personal identity. The award-winning star officially shared that she identifies as pansexual, clarifying her place on the LGBTQ+ spectrum after years of discussing her fluid approach to love and attraction. Speaking in an interview with The Australian published on September 10, the 58-year-old actor offered a direct and clear description of how she views herself. Her statement marks a significant step forward in her public journey, giving her fans a transparent look into her personal growth and understanding. The star of classic television hits and modern prestige dramas explained that she is "pan, as in pansexual, as in attracted to all genders." While Anderson has previously spoken openly about her relationships with women and her broader sexual fluidity, this latest statement reflects a firm embrace of a term that fully captures her experience. During a 2024 discussion with The New Yorker, she pondered her identity out loud, questioning whether terms like bisexual or pansexual fit her best. Now, she has officially chosen the descriptor that aligns with her life. Gillian Anderson.

The interview coincides with the promotion of More, her follow-up project to her bestselling 2024 book Want. Both books assemble anonymous sexual fantasies and intimate reflections from women across the globe. Serving as a facilitator for these personal submissions, Anderson curated stories covering everything from explicit encounters to tender reflections on grief, body image, and passion. Reflecting on her own nature, Anderson noted that she considers herself "a very sexual being", though she acknowledged that her relationship with her sexuality has transformed over the years. She credits her role as sex therapist Jean Milburn on the hit series Sex Education with sparking her willingness to speak openly about sex , which ultimately inspired her literary projects. Now in her late 50s, she feels far more comfortable and grounded in her own skin. "I feel like we can take on the world," she said regarding this stage of her life. A legacy of advocacy and screen roles Anderson has built a strong connection with LGBTQ+ audiences over her decades in the entertainment industry. From her famous portrayal of Dana Scully in The X-Files to Jean Milburn in Sex Education, her career choices have consistently resonated with queer viewers. Her role in the film Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma further highlights this connection, featuring queer themes and sapphic intimacy. Although she hints that her current focus on sex-related topics may be coming to a close, she remains fully engaged in the discussion for now. "Once this book is done and once this film [Miasma] is done, I feel like… it might be the end of this chapter of my life," she admitted. Even as she prepares for future shifts in her career, she continues to talk openly about physical attraction. When asked about features she finds appealing, she noted forearms and hands on men, along with lips, buttocks, and the clavicle on women. Featured image credit: Araya Doheny / Getty

Morning Joe's On-Air Clash Over Netanyahu Sparks Intense Reactions New

Morning Joe's On-Air Clash Over Netanyahu Sparks Intense Reactions

Joe Scarborough erupted at panelist Donny Deutsch during a heated on-air clash over a report that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was warned Hamas was planning a major attack shortly before the Oct. 7, 2023 massacre — at one point demanding, “Do I look stupid to you?”The “Morning Joe” host grew visibly frustrated during the MS NOW broadcast on Wednesday as Deutsch repeatedly stressed Hamas’ responsibility for the slaughter while Scarborough pressed him over the explosive Haaretz report and Netanyahu’s handling of the alleged warning.“Look at me in my eyes,” Scarborough told Deutsch. “Do you think that I’m going to be distracted by you saying what I’ve said a million times?”MS NOW’s Joe Scarborough of “Morning Joe” gestures during a heated argument on Wednesday as his co-host wife Mika Brzezinski (left) looks on. MS NOWScarborough added that he had repeatedly called Hamas terrorists before demanding: “Now, can we talk about Netanyahu, or do you just not want to talk about him?”Deutsch insisted he was not defending the Israeli leader.“I don’t know what went down, and we don’t know,” Deutsch said.“Does that not concern you?” Scarborough shot back. “We ask questions about 9/11. Are you willing to ask questions about Netanyahu?”Scarborough erupted at Donny Deutsch (pictured) during a heated on-air debate over a Haaretz report alleging Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu received a warning ahead of the Oct. 7 attack. MS NOW“I’m willing to answer questions. I’m willing to ask the questions,” Deutsch replied.Scarborough told The Post that he and Deutsch frequently get heated during arguments, though viewers know it’s an animated discussion between two friends.“Donny and I have been great friends for 20 years. We’re both strong supporters of Israel,” Scarborough told The Post.“Look at me in my eyes,” Scarborough told Deutsch during the tense exchange. MS NOW“We just had a disagreement today on whether we should talk about the Haaretz report and talk about what Netanyahu’s responsibility was in it,” he added.Scarborough said Deutsch “felt like any criticisms of Netanyahu would somehow overshadow the fact that October 7th was Hamas’s fault.“We all have said for years that Hamas are terrorists, that they want to kill Jews, that they want to destroy the state of Israel, and that they are an evil force in the region,” Scarborough told The Post.Scarborough rejected any suggestion that the blowup reflected a personal rift between the longtime pals.“We’re great friends, and we’ve done that before, and I don’t think we’d talk that way with somebody that we weren’t so comfortable with,” he said.“He cares passionately about the issue. I care passionately about the issue.”Scarborough also made clear that he remains opposed to Netanyahu staying in power.“I don’t think Benjamin Netanyahu running Israel for another three, four, five years is in the country’s best interest,” he told The Post.The Haaretz investigation published Monday alleged UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed warned Netanyahu in a 45-minute phone call roughly a week and a half before Oct. 7, 2023 that Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar was preparing a major operation against Israel.Deutsch insisted, “I’m not here to defend Bibi Netanyahu,” as Scarborough challenged him over the Israeli leader.

United Airlines' Dubai Flights Suspended Until 2027: What’s Behind the Delay? New

United Airlines' Dubai Flights Suspended Until 2027: What’s Behind the Delay?

The world’s largest airline is delaying its return to this popular travel destination until next year.With persisting conflict in the Middle East, United Airlines, among others, suspended flights to Dubai International Airport back in February. United has now revealed it will not resume direct flights to the popular destination until at least March 2027.In March 2026, United Airlines Flight 164 from Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) was headed to Dubai, but was forced to turn back after Israel attacked Iran and prompted the closure of Iranian airspace. United suggests booking with its partner airline, Emirates, which still flies to Dubai from major US hubs. Luiz C. Ribeiro for New York PostSince then, United Airlines has issued a travel warning for flights in the Middle East, considering the U.S. Department of State currently has both the United Arab Emirates and Israel under “Reconsider Travel” advisories. Dubai airport had restricted foreign airlines to just one daily flight to its airport until May 31 due to the Iran crisis but lifted this policy on May 31. Still, airlines are wary of the immediate reinstatement of their flights.United also suspended its route from San Francisco to Tel Aviv in late February 2026 in light of the Middle Eastern conflict, but announced it is resuming flights between EWR and Tel Aviv on Sep. 8.The airline won’t restart its Newark route to Dubai, despite its popularity among American visitors. Last year, over 1.4 million Americans visited Dubai, constituting 7% of the city’s overnight visitors. PYOK suggests that since Dubai is much closer to Iran, it is at more risk of kamikaze drones and missile attacks, despite local officials reporting very few attacks in territorial waters rather than the city itself. Flight cancellations and complications have been consistent this year globally. Back in January, major airlines cancelled flights across the Middle East due to anxieties that the US was preparing to strike Iran. Flights to Israel, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia were all suspended by various European airlines, with continued suspension to Israel in mid-March. When service was still running, United operated a daily flight from EWR to Dubai: Flight UA164 departed from Terminal C every evening to Terminal 3 at Dubai International Airport. Several non-U.S. and non-UAE airlines (such as Lufthansa, British Airways, and Air Canada) have suspended or delayed their own regional service resumptions into parts of the Middle East through late October 2026 or January 2027. Oleg Zhukov – stock.adobe.comWhile United Airlines announced the intended return of the Dubai flight, it remains to be seen if the date will be pushed back. Customers affected by the cancellation of flights originally scheduled between October 24, 2026 and March 27, 2027 will be offered full refunds.In the meantime, travelers can fly Emirates, which continues to offer nonstop flights between Dubai and six US-based travel hubs, including Chicago, San Francisco and Houston.United Airlines isn’t alone in delaying the return of its direct Dubai flight. Air Canada aims to return in January 2027, and British-based Virgin Atlantic won’t have the flight return until the 2027 winter season.

Lone Juror's Shocking Act Stirs Tension in Lindsay Clancy Trial New

Lone Juror's Shocking Act Stirs Tension in Lindsay Clancy Trial

A male juror in the mistrial of Lindsay Clancy said the lone holdout on the 12-person panel wrapped one of the exercise bands the mom used to kill her children around a water bottle to mimic their strangulation in the deliberation room.Juror number 10 Nick Dargie said the holdout had every right to his opinion but that the reenactment using the same exercise bands left the room speechless.“I was so shocked. We’re not here to play detective – it’s not a game of Clue. This is serious,” Dargie, 25, the fifth juror to come forward in the macabre case out of Duxbury, Mass., told ABC’s “GMA” in an interview that aired Thursday morning.Nick Dargie is one of the three male jurors on the Lindsay Clancy trial.

That’s a band that was used to strangle a child. That’s disgusting.”He also accused the still-unnamed holdout, who hung the jury in an 11-1 deadlock leading to the mistrial, of seeming disengaged during the deliberations, saying he would frequently be scrolling his phone while people were talking to him.When pressed to explain his refusal to budge, Dargie said he made no effort to explain his reasoning.“There wasn’t a single piece of evidence or witness testimony that he used to prove why he was thinking the way he was,” the juror said.Juror number 10, Nick Dargie, said the holdout had every right to his opinion but that the reenactment using the same exercise bands left the room speechless.

Shania Twain's Surprising Connection with Harry Styles and Sabrina Carpenter New

Shania Twain's Surprising Connection with Harry Styles and Sabrina Carpenter

Shania Twain can’t help but be inspired by the new generation of artists showcasing their talents and musical gifts with the world, including Harry Styles and Sabrina Carpenter. “Well, there's always so much room for inspiration, and being around younger artists and meeting them and performing with them gives me a lot of hope about where we're going with music and creativity,” Twain, 61, exclusively told Us while promoting her collaboration with Candy Crush’s new music season. “They're just so full of new ideas, and that's where inspiration comes from. Being around people that, you know, are doing things you may never have thought of [or] doing things in a different way you may never have.” Another artist impressing Twain very much is Zedd. The record producer and DJ recently worked on a vibrant remix of “‘You're Still the One” for Candy Crush's 30th anniversary, as the centerpiece of Candy Crush's new music season. This pairing keeps the heart of the original intact while handing it a new pulse, turning it into a dance track built for right now, without losing what made it timeless in the first place. “That's certainly a genre that I wouldn't have imagined for ‘You're Still the One,’ so this is what young people do,” Twain explained. “They come up with all kinds of really fun things that continue to inspire me, so it's really great new juice and I like being around it. It’s a joy.” In July, Twain released her seventh studio album, Little Miss Twain — which features collaborations with country music legend Tanya Tucker, Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme and acclaimed duo The War and Treaty. That same month, Twain had to miss out on Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding at New York City’s famed Madison Square Garden because she’d committed to supporting Styles, 32, on his Together, Together tour at Wembley Stadium, which had a show on the same date. “I really was sad that I couldn't make that,” Twain told Us. “I already committed to Harry, and, of course, I would never go back on a commitment.” She continued, “That was just very strange timing. I wouldn't say it's unfortunate because I really enjoyed my shows at Wembley. Of course, I loved it ... Our stars will have to align another time.” Twain joked that she “will have to” send Swift and Kelce, both 36, a nice wedding gift to make up for her absence. Meanwhile, the country music legend has built a sweet friendship with Styles after he previously named her as one of his musical inspirations. Speaking to Us, Twain teased that she would “love to” follow up her and Harry’s recent tour dates by getting into the studio together. “That would definitely be a dream for me to get in the studio with him and just pump out some ideas … whatever would come of it. … But he's a very busy person right now,” she noted. “It'll take a while to probably nail him down with his schedule. Those times when you're full-time touring, in a full-time touring mode, it's very difficult to fit in recording time, but yeah, I think that's in the future for us.” Asked what a potential collaboration with Styles might sound like, Twain told Us, “We haven't actually talked about it because … we've just been on different paths. Coming together for the Wembley shows was very, very [rare]. We were very lucky that that worked.” “I don't know what that would look like,” she said of a potential musical project with Styles. “I think it would be very casual and fun. There'd be a lot of laughs. He's got a great personality. He's easygoing, and we're both very creative. So I think it would be just two creative people getting together who have a mutual respect.” For now, Twain is loving Zedd’s vibrant remix of “‘You're Still the One” for Candy Crush, “When [these two styles] come together, it's this explosion of a candy-coated country world,” she declared. “So it's just a really fun take on a classic song, and I feel like it's been refreshed with Zedd's animated sound that works really well with the animation and the spirit of this treasure hunt and excitement of all the colors. It's just a lot of fun. It's taken this beautiful love song into a whole different world of love, I guess you could say. It's really great. It's exciting, and it's another platform for one of my classics. I'm excited about it.” She added, “I think it's just a whole new, wonderful energy to the song, and it just gives a second life to something that we already know and has been in our lives for so many years now. It's like hitting the refresh button on something. It's fabulous.”

Mariska Hargitay's Surprising Favorite Moment from Taylor Swift's Wedding New

Mariska Hargitay's Surprising Favorite Moment from Taylor Swift's Wedding

Mariska Hargitay is still on cloud nine after attending Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding. The Law & Order: SVU icon, 62, was on hand for the couple’s July 3 nuptials at Madison Square Garden in New York City with her husband, Peter Hermann, and shared details from the special night during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Wednesday, September 9. “I did [go to the wedding],” Hargitay shared. “And I’m still floating from that wedding.” She added, “It was so spectacular and so intimate, I have to say. I have to say, I am blown away, because when there’s a wedding with that many guests, you think, ‘OK, it’s gonna be that.’ And it just wasn’t.” According to Hargitay, Swift and Kelce, both 36, managed to turn MSG, which has a capacity of 20,000 people, into a sweet and intimate venue for their guests. “I even say that the vows were my favorite part of the whole wedding. It was that magical,” Hargitay revealed. Back in June, Hargitay and Swift were seen sporting matching T-shirts when they were front row to support the New York Knicks in Game 4 of the NBA Finals against the San Antonio Spurs. Both stars wore cute shirts that read “Stevie Knicks” in the Knicks’ trademark blue and orange colors. “It was pretty spectacular. I had run from my theater — I was doing a play at the time — [I] physically ran from my theater to the game,” Hargitay recalled on Wednesday’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! She said, “We were sitting together and I was wearing a black T-shirt, and Taylor, being the prepared woman that she is, was like, ‘I got you.’ Basically handed [the shirt] to me, I put it on, and that was the end of it.” Swift and Hargitay’s friendship became over a decade ago when Swift named her cat Olivia Benson after the actress’ SVU character. They have been close friends ever since, with Hargitay appearing in Swift’s iconic “Bad Blood” music video in 2015. “It was so fun. It’s the best music video,” the actress gushed in a June 2025 interview on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast. “That was the most fun, being in the squad with all the cool girls and supermodels. It was the most fun ever.” “I learned so much from her,” Hargitay added, calling Swift a “boss lady” who was “warm and smart and kind.” “That’s what I love about her is [that] she’s so young, but she shows us in such beautiful ways how to be fearless,” she shared.

Hunter Biden's Meme Coin Drama: One Trader Strikes Gold Amid Chaos New

Hunter Biden's Meme Coin Drama: One Trader Strikes Gold Amid Chaos

Four out of five people who bought into Hunter Biden’s new meme coin saw their investments go up in smoke during the cryptocurrency’s spectacular launch-day collapse on Wednesday — even as one mystery trader turned a roughly $250,000 bet into $1.18 million within minutes, The Post has learned.An individual trading under a pseudonym spent about $250,000 to acquire 9,124 of Biden’s $LAPTOP tokens before unloading 8,480 of them minutes later for about $1.18 million, according a blockchain analysis by Datavault AI. That amounted to a gain of roughly $930,000 before transaction costs.Hunter Biden’s $LAPTOP meme coin left many buyers nursing losses after a spectacular launch-day spike and collapse. Obtained by NY PostOther traders weren’t nearly as fortunate.One buyer who plowed roughly $200,000 into the token near its fleeting peak saw the position dwindle to around $2,000 as $LAPTOP came crashing back to earth, according to Datavault’s analysis.“That’s the tragedy in these coins,” Datavault AI CEO Nathaniel Bradley told The Post while discussing investors who bought $LAPTOP at its eye-popping early prices.The token briefly shot above $300 during Wednesday’s chaotic debut before plunging to just a few dollars, wiping out more than 99% of its peak price within hours.“To come out and say that a laptop coin is worth $300 is, in my opinion, fraudulent,” Bradley said.Hunter Biden’s new token briefly soared above $300 before surrendering more than 99% of its peak price. DexscreenerBradley characterized the launch as a “classic ‘rug pull.'”The term describes a crypto scheme in which developers or insiders extract value from a project or abandon it, leaving other holders with sharply devalued tokens.There has been no finding that Biden or the $LAPTOP project engaged in fraud or a rug-pull scheme, and Datavault’s analysis has not established that Biden himself sold tokens during the price collapse.Exactly how much Biden may have personally made from $LAPTOP — if anything — remains unclear.Biden launched $LAPTOP earlier this week, transforming the controversy surrounding his infamous computer into a cryptocurrency venture. Obtained by NY PostThe project’s founders, including Biden, were slated to receive 30% of its 1 billion-token supply, according to the Wall Street Journal.Those founder tokens were set to be locked for six months and become fully available over two years, according to the Journal — meaning their theoretical value during $LAPTOP’s fleeting surge cannot be treated as money Biden actually pocketed.Bradley said blockchain records should eventually make it possible to trace $LAPTOP transactions and determine how much money flowed to wallets associated with its principals.“We will be able to see finitely exactly how much,” he told The Post, though he added that he had not yet completed the analysis necessary to put a dollar figure on Biden’s personal proceeds.The 56-year-old son of former President Joe Biden launched $LAPTOP this week on Base, the blockchain developed by crypto exchange Coinbase.Exactly how much Hunter Biden personally made from the $LAPTOP launch remains unclear.

I turned it into a token,” Biden wrote on X ahead of the launch.The token takes its name from the laptop that became a political firestorm during the 2020 presidential campaign after The Post first reported on its contents, including messages concerning Biden’s overseas business dealings and photos documenting his drug use.The Post has sought comment from Hunter Biden.
