VIDEO: Meghan Trainor gives detailed info about her husband, Daryl Sabara’s penis size & sex life

‘Tacky’ Meghan Trainor slammed for ‘TMI’ confession about Daryl Sabara’s penis.
Meghan Trainor was slammed online after candidly discussing her sex life with Daryl Sabara on the “Workin’ On It” podcast last week. 
But no one wants to know about Junie’s junk, true or false? 

During the episode, the Grammy winner said that intercourse is so “painful” with her “big boy” husband that she “can’t walk” afterward. “[It’s] to the point where I’m like, ‘Is it all in?’ and he’s like, ‘Just the tip,’” Trainor said about the “Spy Kids” star. “And I’m like, ‘I can’t do anymore.’ I don’t know how to fix that.” 
The “gross” confession caught many listeners by surprise, leading them to express their “disgust” on social media. 

“Tacky, tacky, tacky….” one user tweeted, while another simply wrote, “TMI guys …🤦‍♂️✌️.” “being so hellbent on constantly oversharing intimate information to win cheap attention points is decimating any potential for women to actually *cultivate a mystique*,” a third person chimed in. 

“I didn’t care to know this information.. ever,” added a fourth, as another joked, “Ma’am, that is Juni Cortez. Stop this.” 

Other uses slammed Trainor for having “no filter” when it comes to NSFW topics. 
“She has no filter and just disgusts me .. it’s gross,” someone said, to which a user replied “Why….I wish people would share LESS sometimes…”

“Girl this convo should have stayed between you and him” a shocked listener insisted. 

During the podcast, the “Lips Are Moving” singer also revealed she was diagnosed with vaginismus, which is defined as involuntary tensing of the vagina. 

Due to the condition — along with her husband’s size — the songstress said sex can be very uncomfortable for her. 
Yet despite the pain, it appears Trainor, 29, and Sabara, 30, have been getting busy in the bedroom. 
The pair, who are already parents to 2-year-old son Riley, are currently expecting their second child — another son. 

“We did it!” she said after announcing the news on the “Today” show. “It finally happened, and we’re so excited.” 
Trainor previously shared that it was her “dream” to have four children. 
“Hopefully, I’ll be pregnant [in 2023]. I’m trying to make four children, so I’ve got to get on it,” she told People in December 2022. 
She and Sabara began dating in 2016 and got engaged just one year later. 
The duo tied the knot in 2018.

Photos: Kim Kardashian look-alike, Christina Ashten Gourkani, 34, dies of cardiac arrest after plastic surgery procedure

Christina Ashten Gourkani, an OnlyFans model known for her striking resemblance to Kim Kardashian, has died, according to her family.
She was 34. 
In a fundraising post on GoFundMe, the family of Gourkani said that she died on April 20 after suffering cardiac arrest. "In the early morning hours at approximately 4:31am on 4/20/2023 our family received a tragic phone call from a family member who was frantically screaming and crying [hysterically] on the other end of the line....Ashten is dying...Ashten is dying," the post reads. "

A phone call that instantly shattered our world and will forever haunt our family for the rest of our lives." The family said that they arrived at a hospital, where Gourkani's condition was deteriorating, and that she died that day. "Her sudden and tragic passing is currently being investigated as a homicide related to medical procedure that took a turn for the worse," they claim. "For the privacy of Christina Ashten, our family and the investigation, no other details will be shared at this time." 

The family is seeking $40,000 for Gourkani's memorial service. 
Gourkani was known publicly as Ashten G and garnered a substantial following on the subscription service site OnlyFans. She also boasted more than 600,000 followers on Instagram. 
"If you knew Ashten, you knew that everyone mattered to her. She was such a caring and loving free spirit that always took the time to bring a smile to anyone's face she crossed paths with," the family wrote in tribute. "She was the kind of person that would kneel down and talk to children at eye level, she searched for the lonely person in the corner and made them feel special, as she has such a gift of connecting with people. 

On many occasions I've seen her turn her [adversaries] into life long friends just after 10 seconds of pouring her charismatic joy, positive energy and her beautiful smile that she gave to those around her. Ashten's spirit is a light that will forever carry on to her loved ones around her and those that she has left behind." 

In addition to bearing a likeness to Kardashian, coincidentally, the two also appear to share birthdays just one day apart.
She does look like Kim Kardashian facially. 
May God rest her soul- AMEN.

Photos: Singer, actor, and activist, the legendary Harry Belafonte has passed away

Harry Belafonte, singer, actor, and beacon of the civil rights movement, died on Tuesday at his home on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
He was 96. 

According to his spokesperson Ken Sunshine, Harry died of congestive heart failure. Belafonte died Tuesday at his home in Manhattan’s Upper West Side from congestive heart failure, his publicist Ken Sunshine confirmed to The Post. Belafonte, a New York City native with Jamaican roots, was a key figure in the folk music scene in the 1950s. Born in Harlem on March 1, 1927, he was raised in Jamaica before returning to the Big Apple only to drop out of high school and enlist in the US Navy. 

Following his two-year stint, he was honorably discharged and went back to Manhattan. It wasn’t until later that his love for the arts shone through, and his frequent trips to a Harlem community theater enthralled him. He joined the Dramatic Workshop of the New School of Social Research, following his passion for theater and jazz. 

Making history as the first black person to win an Emmy in 1960, the three-time Grammy Award winner and actor also made his mark on Broadway in “John Murry Anderson’s Almanac” and “Three for Tonight.” He earned a Tony Award, Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, Kennedy Center honors and National Medal of Arts throughout his century of life. 

Meanwhile, he had a heavy hand in shaping the music industry with dozens of albums and compositions. 
Perhaps his most well-known tunes are “Banana Boat” and “Island in the Sun.” But he was more than an artist, Belafonte was also an activist and dear confidant of Martin Luther King, Jr., who applauded the artist for his “courage and moral integrity.” 
He’s received a multitude of honors from activist groups and received a number of awards for his commitment to the good fight. Most impressively, he was the first-ever recipient of the Nelson Mandela Courage Award. 
“What makes a movement work are thousands of parts that come together and express itself in favor of a given destination or objective,” Belafonte told the New York Times in 2016. 
“You have to find men and women who are willing to play the role that each of these things demand.”
“Movements don’t die because struggle doesn’t die,” he added. 

He is survived by his wife Pamela Frank and four children: Shari, David, Adrienne and Gina.

 
May his beautiful soul rest in peace- AMEN.

Photos: Don Lemon fired by CNN after 17 years.... the true story

Yesterday afternoon (Monday, April 2), Don Lemon was fired by CNN after 17 years.
The host has been let go from his anchor role which he was in for almost two entire decades. The decision follows allegations that Lemon that he mistreated his female colleagues throughout his career with CNN. 
Lemon announced the news on Twitter today, writing: 
"I am stunned. After 17 years at CNN I would have thought someone in management would have had the decency to tell me directly." He continued: "At no time was I ever given any indication that I would not be able to continue to do the work I have loved at the network." Lemon went on to claim that it was 'clear' that there were 'larger issues at play'. "With that said, I want to thank my colleagues and the many teams I have worked with for an incredible run," he concluded. "They are the most talented journalists in the business, and I wish them all the best." 
The official CNN Communications Twitter page also released a statement on the matter, stating: "CNN and Don have parted ways.


Don Lemon’s explosive interview with GOP candidate Vivek Ramaswamy reportedly contributed to his firing!

CNN says that’s not true. In a statement, the network says Don reused to meet with management before the decision was made: “Don Lemon’s statement about this morning’s events is inaccurate. He was offered an opportunity to meet with management but instead released a statement on Twitter.”
So who is lying here?

Photos: Arsenal women's team plane catches fire on the runway

A plane carrying the Arsenal women's team back from their Champions League semi-final first leg with Wolfsburg burst into flames on the runway on Sunday evening.
The incident occurred at the Braunschweig Wolfsburg Airport after a bird flew into the engine shortly before it was due to take off, causing a loud bang. Flames immediately started to come out of the left engine of the Boeing 737, and the pilots on board quickly evacuated the passengers, including Arsenal's first team squad, to safety. 
Arsenal have released a statement confirming they returned home safely on Monday morning. 
The statement read: 'Our aircraft developed a technical issue prior to take-off in Germany on Sunday evening.
'As a result, we remained in Wolfsburg overnight on Sunday before flying back to England on Monday afternoon. We would like to thank the staff onboard the aircraft and on the ground at the airport for their assistance.'

Twitter has a rival now! Jack Dorsey's Twitter alternative Bluesky launches on Android

A new app created by Twitter’s co-founder and ex-CEO as an alternative to the Elon Musk-owned platform has just launched a version for Android users.
A new app created by Twitter’s co-founder and ex-CEO as an alternative to the Elon Musk-owned platform has just launched a version for Android users. 
Bluesky, created by Jack Dorsey, promises a future-thinking “social internet” that allows users more choices and frees people from platforms, according to its website. The app, however, is still in development and only available to access through an invite code. Dorsey began working on Bluesky as a side project in 2019 with funding from Twitter, and it was first rolled out to iOS users in late February. Many users have said Bluesky’s current beta version is similar to a pared-down copy of Twitter, according to Tech Crunch. 
Demand for the exclusive app has been growing, and the platform reportedly has about 20,000 users in its current form, the technology outlet reported. 

Moving forward, the app developers hope to give users “algorithmic choice,” which would allow them to choose how content is fed onto their screens, instead of a one-fits-all algorithm controlled by the app developers. 
The emerging Twitter alternative received $13 million in funding when it split from Twitter and became its own independent company last year. Dorsey remains on Bluesky’s board. Bluesky is just one of several alternatives to Twitter that began popping up after Musk purchased the social media giant and began making changes to both the site and the company. 
Those tired of the billionaire’s antics, including mass layoffs and blue checkmark removals, turned to other options like Mastodon and Hive — and now Bluesky. 
In order to access the Dorsey-backed project, users must get onto a waitlist for an invite code by submitting their email on the Bluesky website.

Ronaldo, Kim Kardashian, Wizkid, Davido & other top personalities lose their Twitter blue tick

Some of the top Twitter personalities with a massive following have lost their verified blue tick marks, as the micro-blogging site rolled out the new policy.
Now, the only individual Twitter users who have verified blue checkmarks are those paying for Twitter Blue, which costs $8 a month via the web and $11 a month through in-app payment on iOS and Android. 
Some of the top Twitter personalities with a massive following have lost their verified blue tick marks, as the micro-blogging site rolled out the new policy. 
Now, the only individual Twitter users who have verified blue checkmarks are those paying for Twitter Blue, which costs $8 a month via the web and $11 a month through in-app payment on iOS and Android.
Among the top tweeps who don't have blue ticks anymore are: Bollywood stars Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Alia Bhatt; and global celebrities Oprah Winfrey, Robert Downey Jr., Kim Kardashian, and Blake Lively. 
Sports stars Cristiano Ronaldo, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma also lost it: 
Even Bill Gates, JK Rowling, Jay-Z, Beyonce, and Harry Styles don't have check marks anymore. Indian politicians like CM Yogi Adityanath, Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi also got their marks removed. 

Earlier, it was announced that the micro-blogging site will remove the verified check-mark status of accounts that Twitter had been verified as notable before Elon Musk's takeover unless they have subscribed to Twitter Blue or the business-focused Twitter Verified Organizations plan, Variety reported. Initially, the blue tick served as a way of protecting well-known individuals from impersonation and tackling false information. 

Earlier in March, Twitter posted from their official handle, "On April 1st, we will begin winding down our legacy verified program and removing legacy verified checkmarks. To keep your blue checkmark on Twitter, individuals can sign up for Twitter Blue. 

Twitter first introduced the blue check mark system in 2009 to help users identify that celebrities, politicians, companies and brands, news organizations and other accounts "of public interest" were genuine and not impostors or parody accounts. 
The company didn't previously charge for verification. 
Musk launched Twitter Blue with the check-mark badge as one of the premium perks within two weeks of the company's takeover last year.
Elon Musk reveals he is ‘personally paying’ the Twitter Blue subscriptions of some celebrities to keep their checkmark, such as Lebron James and Stephen King.

Photos: Balmain designer, Olivier Rousteing thought he was mixed! Turns out he is VERY African!!

Proudly African at that!
34-year-old French designer and Balmain creative director, Olivier Rousteing, has worked with the best of the best in fashion and entertainment. 
Most recently, he earned an Emmy nomination for his work on the costumes for Beyonce’s ‘Homecoming‘ but deep down inside, despite all of his success, there was still a void missing. At the age of 1, Rousteing was adopted by a French couple in Bordeaux. He grew up believing he was of mixed race, specifically black and white, because of his skin color. For over 30 years he’s lived with many unanswered questions, especially why he was given up. 

After some convincing, Olivier is finally getting the answer to those questions. 
In a new documentary, “Wonder Boy,” directed and produced by Anissa Bonnefont and set to premiere in Paris on Saturday, the day after the Balmain show, Olivier finally sets out to find his birth mother. The documentary began filming in 2017 and filmed over the course of a year-and-a-half. Olivier traveled back to Bordeaux, met with his adoptive grandparents and had conversations with social workers. 
Eventually, he makes a discovery about his mother and the basic facts surrounding his birth. In his research, Olivier finds out that his mother was just a kid when he was born and that she barely knew his father. “She was a kid,” he says, in anguish. He also finds out that he is not of mixed race as he grew up thinking his entire life, nor was it the fairytale he wanted it to be. 
He had always hoped his birth parents were “two young people who were very in love with each other but couldn’t stay together.” “She was Somalian and he was Ethiopian, which means I am African-African,” he said. “I’m black.” It’s discombobulating discovering, in your 30s, that the myths you told yourself your entire life, even if you knew you had made them up, were all wrong. I don’t want anyone to have pity for me. I want people to see this as a movie about a fighter who faced the world. 
There is a real crisis of identity today, it’s hard to be yourself. But maybe the people who see it will understand me more.” 
The social worker was able to learn that Olivier’s mother was still in France, though they could not legally reveal her name. 

However, they did offer him the chance to write her a letter that they could pass on to her if he was interested in meeting with her. Olivier has not decided what he plans to do at this time. 
For now, Olivier does plan to speak at a conference being organized by the French government in the Fall in hopes of revising the national adoption laws to give children more rights to trace their roots.

Rihanna buys $21M century city penthouse as she hints at her unborn baby's gender

Soon-to-be mom-of-two Rihanna must have felt her three-bedroom, 3,500-square-foot primary residence in a luxury LA skyscraper was a bit too tight for her growing family with rapper A$AP Rocky.
According to Rap-Up:

As she prepares to welcome her second child, the billionaire pop icon is upgrading to a deluxe penthouse in the sky. According to Dirt.com, Rihanna has purchased a $21 million penthouse once owned by actor Matthew Perry, in Century City, Calif. The 9,290-square-foot luxury condo is located at The Century, one of the most expensive and prestigious residential skyscrapers in Los Angeles. 
The 35-year-old singer currently owns a 3-bedroom, 3,500-square-foot unit in the building, but her new digs are almost three times the size and occupy the building’s entire 40th floor. 
The 4-bedroom, 6.5-bathroom home, which she purchased from Afterpay co-founder Nick Molnar, was originally listed for $28 million, but Rihanna negotiated a hefty discount. 
The lavish amenities include a private elevator, floor-to-ceiling windows with skyline views, dark brown hardwood floors, and an all-white kitchen with marble countertops. Other features include a soundproof movie theater, master suite with curved bedroom, and private lounge. Rihanna’s famous neighbors at The Century include Denzel Washington, reality stars Terry and Heather Dubrow, and Candy Spelling, who lives on the two floors above Rihanna. 
The Fenty Beauty mogul, who is worth a reported $1.4 billion, already has an impressive real estate portfolio including two properties in Beverly Hills. Back in 2021, she paid $23.8 million for the side-by-side mansions, which she reportedly leases. 
The singer, who is pregnant with the pair’s second child, shopped for baby clothes in LA Wednesday, and eagle-eyed fans noted some of the items she picked up were very telling. 
In photos obtained by Daily Mail, the “Lift Me Up” hitmaker, 35, was spotted checking out a pastel pink knitted romper, leading fans to believe that she’s expecting a baby girl.

Photos: Missing 2 y.o boy found dead in alligator’s mouth, mum also stabbed! Evil acts done by his dad

Things that make you go AWNNNN!!!
A missing Florida boy was found dead Friday after authorities say they discovered the 2-year-old’s body in the mouth of an alligator in St. Petersburg, Florida.
The boy, Taylen Mosley, was reported missing after his mother, Pashun Jeffery, 20, was found dead in her apartment Thursday afternoon with multiple stab wounds, St. Petersburg Police Chief Anthony Holloway said in a news conference Friday. Taylen’s father, Thomas Mosley, was taken into custody for both deaths and is facing two counts of first degree murder, St. Petersburg police said. 
Police spotted an alligator in Dell Homes Park, which is just miles from the apartment where Jeffery was found dead, with an object in its mouth. Officers fired a single round at the reptile and it dropped the object, Holloway said. Officers were able to then retrieve the object, finding Taylen’s body intact. 
“We didn’t want to find him this way, but at least we can bring some closure to that family now,” Holloway said. Thomas was checked into a hospital Friday with cuts to his hands and arms, Holloway said. He was later booked in the Pinellas County jail, online jail records show. 
Thomas did not want to speak to authorities and asked for an attorney, though it was not clear Saturday whether he had obtained legal representation yet. 
Authorities say the investigation is still ongoing and have not released information on Taylen’s cause of death or how he ended up in the park.
UPDATE:
Thomas Mosley has been booked. 
He is charged in the deaths of 2-year-old Taylen Mosley and his mother Pashun Jeffrey. 
Police say Thomas murdered his son and Pashun, and then his son’s body was found in the mouth of an alligator by police.
