Pop Smoke’s convicted killer says he’s beaten FOUR murder cases despite being convicted in the 2020 killing of the rapper.
“23 years old, 4 murders, and I’m still out.”
Livvy Dunne reveals how she met her boyfriend Paul Skenes before he became an MLB star.
“When I met Paul, we were just two normal college kids at LSU. I was a gymnast, he was a baseball player. I was already pursuing social media and gymnastics”
“Paul wasn’t Paul Skenes yet. There’s no predicting that somebody’s going to become the best pitcher in the MLB. There’s really no way, and it’s just been such a joy to watch him. And we really support each other”
“I usually wear an Oura Ring, and it tells me I’m going to like, explode and die every single time I watch him”
“I’m a little superstitious, so I have to scream before every single pitch at the top of my lungs, ‘Let’s go, Paul!’ And everybody around me is kind of like, ‘What is wrong with this girl?’”
Jon Bernthal put his arm around his 24-year-old costar at the Spider-Man premiere and closed his fist so his hand never touched her skin. To understand why that small choice hits so hard, you have to know where this man came from.
Bernthal was thrown out of multiple schools growing up in DC. He boxed, he fought, he ran with real trouble, and he's said openly how close he came to prison or worse. Hollywood noticed exactly that quality. Casting directors call him when violence needs to feel lived in. Shane in The Walking Dead. Frank Castle. The hitman brother in The Accountant. He doesn't perform danger. He carries it.
Which is what makes the manners so striking. The men he plays can't control their hands. The man himself has turned control into a signature. Married to a trauma nurse since 2010. Three kids. Runs a podcast where he sits with ex-cons and cops, trying to understand the life he almost lived from both sides. And at a premiere, standing next to a colleague nearly twenty years younger in a backless dress, his instinct was a closed fist so the contact stayed unmistakably respectful.
That instinct is old-school manners of the kind that used to get taught and mostly doesn't anymore. Protect the people around you. Never put someone in a position they'd have to explain. The people who hold hardest to that code are often the ones who learned the cost of living without one.
One more detail. In 2015, on the set of Pilgrimage, Bernthal and Tom Holland filmed each other's audition tapes. Bernthal's was for the Punisher. Holland's was for Spider-Man. The two men in this picture handed each other their Marvel careers a decade ago.
The kid who got expelled everywhere grew into the most courteous man on the carpet. Redemption doesn't usually come with photographic proof. This time it did.
Alex Ovechkin is preparing for year 2 in the NHL this season following his incredible rookie year. He won the Calder Trophy for the best rookie in the league thanks to his 52 goals which were 3rd in the league.
The Capitals are hoping Ovechkin can continue to develop his skills and be a top goal scorer in the league for years to come.
Nationals rookie Ryan Zimmerman hit his 15th home run and 75th RBI in today’s game. He’s also hitting .291 with an .846 ops.
The young third baseman is looking like the future of the franchise and is right in the middle of a competitive rookie of the year race!
Aaron Judge gets it. Notice how he keeps looking up to be in the discussion. He’s not going through the motions, obligated. He’s paying attention and making that person’a experience real. He interacts, smiles, talks. Love or hate the Yankees, disliking Aaron Judge is nonsense. I was born at Mass General. I have Red Sox blood. Aaron Judge is great.
This is Sophie Cunningham in the red Indy #8 jersey walking straight up to a little girl, handing her a pink shoe, and locking her in the biggest post-game hug while the whole arena films.
The woman holding the phone has tears in her eyes as she snaps the picture — then Sophie turns and invites her to join them too.
She’s not just a basketball player. She’s a role model to young girls and women everywhere who proves the best wins happen long after the final buzzer.
Who else still gets chills watching Sophie make these moments feel this real?
at this point I’ve played professional basketball, I’m a lead in a movie, I’m a New York Times best selling author, own my own haircare brand, and I have platinum songs and albums. I beat the game a long time ago. long enough to know that playing is the reward. can’t wait to keep it goin. the finish line is a facade!!!
