Wrestling World Shocked as Referee Dies After Piledriver Move

Wrestling World Shocked as Referee Dies After Piledriver Move

Professional wrestler El Hilo de Fishman has been arrested and faces a potential manslaughter charge after a move he executed during a match resulted in the death of a referee. The incident occurred in Hidalgo, Mexico on Wednesday, October 7, when Fishman, 36, performed a preplanned piledriver on referee Gerardo German Pineda, known as El Buho. A piledriver is a pro wrestling move in which an individual turns someone upside down and slams them head-first into the mat. Pineda, 75, went into the mat and never got back up, according to Cageside Seats. Reports from the event indicate that he was not immediately helped because fans and event workers thought he was feigning injury as part of the stunt. When paramedics eventually arrived, the referee was pronounced dead at the scene. Because of the potential dangers of the move, the piledriver has often been banned in WWE and other wrestling promotions. Fishman is now in the custody of the Hidalgo State Attorney General’s Office, according to Spanish language wrestling outlet Super Luchas. His arrest opened a 48-hour window during which he must be presented to a judge for a hearing that will determine if he can be formally charged. If charged and convicted, he could face five to 15 years in prison. Mexican wrestling promotion El Patron Lucha Libre released a statement on Wednesday confirming the “unfortunate events.” “Our company is attentive to the developing situation and has arranged accompaniment and legal assistance for Hijo de Fishman, so that the corresponding process is carried out in accordance with the law and before the competent authorities,” the statement read. The statement continued, “The lawyer and legal representative of the company maintains contact with the family of Mr. Gerardo Germán Pineda, ‘El Búho’, and with his legal representatives, to handle the case in the best way and guarantee respect for all parties involved.” The promotion added that with the legal process ongoing, it would not provide additional information that could “interfere with or prejudice the facts.” “We ask the fans, media and members of the guild to act with prudence, discretion and respect, and avoid the spread of rumors or unconfirmed information, so as not to hinder the investigations and out of respect for all parties involved and their families,” it continued. The statement concluded, “We deeply regret the loss of a life and express our solidarity with his family, friends and colleagues in the wrestling business.”

Conagra Brands has stopped producing Celeste frozen pizzas, prompting longtime fans to reminisce about the budget-friendly freezer staple.The company disclosed the move during its fiscal first-quarter 2027 earnings remarks Sept. 30, saying the exit reduced first-quarter net sales by about 15 basis points but is expected to “be accretive to margins going forward.”Conagra CEO John Brase said Celeste is an example of a smaller brand with which the company no longer sees enough of a “future” to justify continued investment.“There are certain brands and categories where we simply just don’t see a future,” Brase said. “It just makes sense to exit those small, really unprofitable brands or low-profit brands as soon as possible.”A Conagra spokesperson confirmed to FOX Business that production of Celeste pizzas has ended, although shoppers may continue to find the products on store shelves until the remaining inventory sells out.Conagra Brands has stopped producing Celeste frozen pizzas, prompting longtime fans to reminisce about the budget-friendly freezer staple.

Christa Pike's Botched Execution Sparks Legal Battle and Public Outcry

Christa Pike's Botched Execution Sparks Legal Battle and Public Outcry

Christa Pike scored a legal victory after a judge reopened her case against being put to death by lethal injection following her botched execution.The convicted murderer, 50, was due to be the first woman put to death in Tennessee for over 200 years on Sept. 30 but instead became the country’s first death row inmate ever to survive the lethal injection.In January, her legal team filed a complaint in court challenging the state’s lethal injection protocol, which was later dismissed by the Tennessee Supreme Court in May, according to court documents obtained by The Post.Murderer Christa Pike was sentenced to death for a murder she committed when she was a teenager, but survived a botched execution at a Tennessee prison. Tennessee Department of Correction/AFP via Getty ImagesDeath row inmate Christa Pike enters a Knox County Criminal Court in Knoxville, Tennessee, on Dec. 4, 2007. via REUTERSIn an order issued on Thursday, Judge I’Ashea Myles ruled that the case should be reopened in the Davidson County Chancery Court in Nashville.Myles wrote that Pike had established “extreme, unique, exceptional, or extraordinary circumstances” allowing her to seek relief from the court.The original complaint filed in January called for the court to stop the use of the lethal injection against Pike, arguing that in her case it was unconstitutional.“Tennessee’s new lethal injection protocol, calling for a single drug (pentobarbital), is plagued with the same issues that have marked botched executions for decades: secrecy, intentional omission, inattention to detail, and untrained and unlicensed prison personnel attempting to fill medical role,” Pike’s lawyers wrote.Here’s the latest on the botched execution of Tennessee murderer Christa Pike: Christa Pike is ‘up and walking’ after botched execution — and she remembers: ‘She is angry’ Texas executes Jamaal Howard despite same lethal injection drug used in failed Christa Pike execution Christa Pike’s aunt believes killer’s survival of botched execution is God’s will: ‘God is in control’ Christa Pike went from ‘brain dead’ to awake and talking in just hours, lawyer explains “As the State of Tennessee seeks to execute its first woman in 250 years, and the only woman on Tennessee’s death row ––- Christa Gail Pike –– those problems have come to head.“The new protocol, as applied to the Plaintiff and her unique medical conditions, is unconstitutional under the United States Constitution and the Tennessee Constitution.”The attorneys also argued that Pike’s “physical characteristics” –– including small veins –– made insertion with a needle difficult.Chancellor I’Ashea L. Myles presides over a hearing requesting the Tennessee Department of Corrections to preserve all evidence related to the failed execution of Christa Pike, in Nashville, Tennessee, Wednesday, October 7, 2026. USA TODAY Network via Reuters ConnectPike was sentenced to death for the sadistic murder of her 19-year-old Job Corps classmate Colleen Slemmer in Jan. 1995, when she was 18.In July, the Tennessee Supreme Court appointed a senior judge to review evidence regarding claims that her execution at the hands of an all-male execution was unconstitutional given her history of childhood rape and sexual violence.The judge’s investigation found in August that Pike’s legal team had failed to prove she was at substantial risk of pain, serious illness or needless suffering, allowing her execution to go ahead.Following what was the state’s second failed execution since May, Tennessee Governor Bill Lee paused all remaining capital punishment this year and ordered an independent review into what went wrong.At a court hearing before Judge Myles on Wednesday, Tennessee Assistant Attorney General William Ayers replied “I can’t answer that question” when asked by the judge if the execution would be rescheduled.Her legal team said Pike was given two doses of pentobarbital using at least 7 needles, one of which came out of her arm bent at a 90-degree angle.The convicted killer remained unconscious and in a critical state and her lawyers said they were told Monday she was brain dead and would be taken off life support the following day.In a stunning turn of events, Pike woke up on Tuesday and is now said to be talking and walking.She is believed to be the first death row inmate ever to survive lethal injection in the US.Pike suffered a blood clot in her arm, has pneumonia and cannot eat following her botched execution, her attorney Randy Spivey told a press conference Wednesday.The Texas Attorney General’s Office said it’s unable to comment due to pending and anticipated litigation, but previously noted that the governor called for an investigation into the botched execution.Pike’s attorneys didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

Cornell Fraternity Scandal: Shocking Texts Emerge in Rape Allegations

Cornell Fraternity Scandal: Shocking Texts Emerge in Rape Allegations

See more of our coverage in your search results. New screenshots of text messages between the “Cornell 7” Jane Doe and one of the accused frat brothers show her telling him, “I don’t think we should feel any shame” a day after the alleged gang rape, adding, “our body our choice.”Some of the texts from Oct. 21, 2024, between Doe and Jonathan Newell were previously reported — in which the alleged victim reassures Newell that the sex was consensual.Doe’s attorney dismissed the newly revealed screenshots as part of her processing what had happened on Oct. 20.“This was part of the processing that she was going through, denial, shame and ultimately acceptance,” attorney Thomas Giuffra told The Post.Newell and Doe texting after the Chi Phi incident. TMZ.comA text chain obtained by TMZ shows messages between Jonathan Newell and the Cornell Jane Doe. TMZ.comThe texts started on Oct. 21 — a day after Doe’s alleged rape at Cornell’s Chi Phi house — when Newell texted her apologizing for “how things went down” with her and student Matthew Ingalls, both of whom she later claimed plied her with ketamine during a threesome that devolved into a series of brothers arriving to take turns having sex with her.“My memory’s kinda fuzzy abt a lot of it but me and Matt both feel like s–t for being too f–cked up to shut it down and kick people out before it got way out of hand,” Newell wrote, according to screenshots obtained by TMZ.“You’re an amazing person and I genuinely hope ur not catching as much heat from this as we r,” he added. “We’ve been shutting down any stories we’ve heard but again I’m so so sorry.”Doe then responded with “aw jonathan i really appreciate this text. my memories super clouded too. i think we were all way to f–king drunk and high.”She continued saying, “at the end of the day non of the sexual stuff was illegal and honestly i really like being w u and matt. so anything anyone has to say about the gamgbang [sic] is out of their jurisdiction.”“I don’t think we should feel any shame for the part. our body our choice asf,” she added, before alluding to other people getting involved in the sex she had with Ingalls and Newell.“yall were both super out of it and they should have taken it on themselves to leave. at the end of the day you, matt, and i were in your bed and they didn’t need to get up on that,” she wrote, finally consoling Newell again.“if you have any regrets or anything you want to talk about i am always here to talk about it cause that was a lot,” Doe wrote. “i really do love u and matt and i promise i wont get quiet and weird w u like i did last time.”And then things ramped up from there, with Doe recalling one of the more lewd moments of the night, TMZ reported.“ps. i’m not sure if u remember but i did ket off your d–k at some point? and i honestly think that was one of the most insane/jaw dropping moments of the night,” she wrote — with Newell responding that he had “no memory” of it.The front page of The New York Post on Oct. 4, 2026.Things deteriorated between the former friends in the ensuing three weeks — with Doe claiming it began to dawn on her that what happened that night was not consensual before she finally accused Newell, Ingalls and five others of rape and sexual assault.At the center of her claim was the alcohol and ketamine she was offered at the frat house when she went over that night, which she claimed left her so incapacitated that she became powerless to resist the group of brothers who started filing into the room to join in on the threesome.And she let Newell know it by Nov. 3 — when she texted him, “let’s be clear that 90% of what happened that night was not consensual.”“I was given more [ketamine] than i can remember and i know that i told u i felt uncomfortable and i didn’t know anyone in the room,” she added. “all i remember after that was u giving me [ketamine] to do off your d–k in front of everyone like a sex/doll worker.”Newell then reiterated that he had no memory of any of that happening, writing, “had I been less f**ked up and even somewhat aware of the situation and how out of hand it got, I would’ve shut it down the second guys started walking in the room.”The Chi Phi chat where brothers invited people to join the alleged gang-rape. Obtained by NY PostHe and Ingalls — who texted his fellow bros to walk into the room with Doe and “whip it out” — both ended up expelled after a private Cornell investigation found them responsible for sexual assault, while the others were variously suspended or suffered more minor punishments.But the local Tompkins County District Attorney’s Office declined to bring any charges against the brothers, citing a statement from Doe provided by campus police which they claimed never accused anyone of rape and also showed she willingly ingested the alcohol and drugs throughout the night.The case exploded onto the headlines in September, however, when Doe sued the seven fraternity brothers with rape and sexual assault allegations.Her suit included a damning alleged group chat among Chi Phi brothers where Newell allegedly wrote there was “free p—y” upstairs — allegedly meaning Doe — and encouraged each other to go upstairs and to “whip it out” and join in on the sex.It was that message which sparked the additional brothers filing upstairs and joining the sex, which Doe said amounted to rape. Prosecutors have now begun investigating the case since it exploded across headlines last month and sparked public outcries for a reckoning of how sexual assault allegations are handled on college campuses.

Keri Russell Reveals the Real Reason She Wasn't in Matthew Rhys' Emmys Speech

Keri Russell Reveals the Real Reason She Wasn't in Matthew Rhys' Emmys Speech

Keri Russell has shed some light on why her longtime partner Matthew Rhys did not mention her in his 2026 Emmy Awards acceptance speech. "I looked at him like a few days before, and I said, ‘Okay, well, can you articulate what you’re most nervous about?'" Russell, 50 revealed on the Thursday, October 8, episode of the "Dear Chelsea" podcast. "And he’s like, ‘Yeah, having to speak.’ And I said, ‘Totally.’ And I said, ‘Take me off your plate. Like, you don’t have to thank me. I know you love me.’" Rhys, 51, made history at the 2026 Emmys when he became the first man to win Lead Actor Awards in all three major categories — comedy, drama and limited series. (Legendary actress Barbara Stanwyck previously achieved the same record at the Emmys.) The Welsh star first won the Outstanding Lead Actor prize for his drama series The Americans back in 2018. At the 2026 Emmys, he took home the equivalent awards for comedy Widow's Bay and limited series The Beast in Me on the same night. Rhys seemed to be flustered as he accepted the Emmy for Widow's Bay, though he remembered to thank numerous collaborators, his parents, his sister and his home country. "To the great and good people of Wales, who were as much a nurturer as anyone else, we are a small but mighty nation. This is incredible," he said during his speech. Some viewers later picked up on Rhys failing to mention or thank Russell as he stood on the stage at the Peacock Theater. "I didn't really prepare anything, which is why I vomited that speech," he told E! News backstage at the gala. While speaking to Chelsea Handler on her latest podcast, Russell confirmed that she asked Rhys to leave her out of his speech so he could thank his coworkers. "People still give him a hard time because he didn’t say their name [when he won for The Americans]," Russell revealed. "Like, it’s so crazy. People get nuts. It’s stupid and it’s also lame." She added, "We kind of said to each other, we don't have to thank each other. … Like to go back to your thing, this is for the business people. Like, thank whoever you want to thank." Russell was also nominated at the Emmys this year in the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series category for her performance on The Diplomat, though she ultimately lost to Pluribus' Rhea Seehorn. Rhys and Russell got together while they were playing Soviet sleeper agents on the acclaimed political thriller The Americans — yet this wasn't the first time they crossed paths. On a 2023 Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen episode, Rhys revealed that he got Russell's number at a kickball party hosted by Jennifer Grey more than 20 years ago. "She gave it to me, and this is where this all falls apart. I have no memory of this because I was very inebriated, but I left a very inebriated message on her answering machine," he declared. Russell went on to marry her now ex-husband Shane Deary, with whom she shares 19-year-old son River and 13-year-old daughter Willa Lou. (Russell and Deary split in 2013 and finalized their divorce the following year.) Per Rhys, he and Russell managed to hide their romance on the set of The Americans for “about a solid year” before coworkers figured out they were sneaking off together. "It’s those sneaky PAs who get onto it," he joked. "They have headsets. It was like, ‘They’re both in the trailer.’ I’m like, ‘Shut up!'” Russell and Rhys subsequently welcomed son Sam in May 2016.

Glen Powell's Surprising Stance on Politics Leaves Fans Talking

Glen Powell's Surprising Stance on Politics Leaves Fans Talking

Glen Powell doesn’t care to wade into the political landscape one bit. “Over time, I realized that politics divide people,” Powell, 37, revealed in an Esquire profile published Wednesday, October 8. “People trying to prove their point — for me, it’s the worst version of a conversation. I genuinely do not like the discourse. It’s not as healthy as it once was.” Because of the allegedly unhealthy politically-charged conversations, Powell states that it’s “not presently possible” to even engage in certain discussions. “I applaud people for jumping into those things and fighting for what they believe in,” he stated. “If I were a political person, I would be talking about it. For me, my calling is elsewhere.” Instead of activism, Powell is focused on his Hollywood career as both an actor and a screenwriter. “I want to bring people together over a common thing,” the Great Beyond star said of his career goals. “I believe in what I’m making, and I do work really, really hard to try to make sure that it’s something that audiences want. It’s not an easy thing to care so much.” While Powell finds joy in his film and TV projects, he has the complete support of his parents, his sisters and girlfriend Michelle Randolph. “Life is fast for both of us, and we have the same values,” the Chad Powers actor gushed to the outlet of Randolph, 29. “She loves her family, I love my family and we both care about work a lot. We both like to show up for our partners — and yet we also understand the balance of it all.” Powell and the Landman actress have been romantically linked since late last year before making their social media debut in June. “There’s something so lovely about someone rooting for you. Someone who wants you to win in all the ways that are good for you as a human,” Powell added in Wednesday’s profile. “Not just professionally but in all the ways that are good for your soul.” Aside from Powell’s glowing Esquire comments, he and Randolph have preferred to keep their connection private. “I think, for peace of mind, those are really important for me to keep separate,” Randolph told InStyle in January of her low-key romance. “How people perceive you publicly is not who you are. It’s hard to not [read the comments] because it’s so in our face, and everyone’s online, so you see things that you don’t necessarily want to, and then it puts you in a bad mood for the rest of the day or hurts your feelings. It’s not smart to let that define you because that’s not real.”

Missouri Teen's Tragic Death Sparks Outrage Over Alleged Police Cover-Up

See more of our coverage in your search results. A Missouri high schooler was killed after being hit by a police car while authorities claimed she died in a hit-and-run accident, her devastated family claimed. Persephone Berger, 16, was lying in the road when she was struck by a St. Francois County Sheriff’s Office vehicle at around 3:45 a.m. Saturday, KMOV reported.Berger was heading to her Park Hills home after she had snuck out to a party the previous night when a witness found her in the road and reported the discovery to cops. Persephone Berger was killed Saturday after being hit by a cop car. Allison Berger / facebook“While approaching [the scene], the Deputy did not see the [girl] in the roadway and subsequently struck [her],” Sheriff Jeff Crites said in a statement.It’s unclear why Berger ended up in the road but her dad, Jarred Berger, was initially told by law enforcement his daughter died in a hit-and-run, according to her aunt, Kimberly Cabuchola.A preliminary autopsy found her injuries were “consistent with those sustained from the responding Deputy’s vehicle,” authorities said.Cabuchola admitted “accidents happen” and revealed she wouldn’t have been angry towards the driver, who is around 23 and had worked for the department for around three months, if the sheriff’s office had been transparent.“All they had to do was say ‘Our officer accidentally ran over your child and she died,’” the bewildered relative told KMOV. “That’s all they had to do. But no.”“To try and cover it up and to lie to our family? Why?  Why would they need to do that? We could have forgiven that officer.”A candlelit vigil was held at West County High School on Monday in the student’s memory. Joy-Jarrad Berger / FacebookHowever, Cabuchola ripped the sheriff’s office for being slow to contact Berger’s father.“The lies… not calling the right people in,” she blasted. “Not reaching out to my brother for three days. That wasn’t an accident.“The only [person] that contacted him within that three-day [period] was the coroner, to tell us that she was so badly mangled that we needed to have a closed coffin for her.”“I want to go over to that county jail and tell them, you know. I want to scream and I want to cuss at them. But I know I can’t. I know I can’t. Just tell us the truth.”Crites has been tight-lipped over the claims she was killed in a hit-and-run as he wasn’t the responding officer.Berger has been described as a ‘caring and compassionate young woman.’ Allison Berger / facebookAuthorities are still awaiting the results of toxicology tests, and an independent investigation is set to be carried out by the Missouri State Highway Patrol.Investigators are also waiting for her autopsy results; meanwhile tributes have been paid to the teen – who has been described as an “avid Harry Potter fan” by her family.“Throughout her years, Persephone blossomed into a caring and compassionate young woman, always ready with a smile and a kind word for everyone she met,” they said in an obit.“A passionate member of her school choir since fifth grade, she filled the halls with her beautiful voice and infectious enthusiasm.“She had an outgoing spirit and was affectionately known as a social butterfly, radiating warmth and kindness to those around her. In her free time, Persephone loved to embark on hikes and engage with nature, cherishing the adventures she shared with her friends and family.”Her sister, Allison Berger, described the Harry Potter fan as someone who was “exciting” and “so full of life.”“I love you so much Persephone and we miss you more than you would ever even imagine,” she wrote online on Saturday.Students at Berger’s school, West County High School, wore pink on Monday and hundreds of mourners attended a vigil. “She was just a really lively, understanding person. She never judged a soul. Like, she was just a really sweet person,” Emma Houser said, revealing the atmosphere in school was “so dull” following her death.“She felt kind of like an older sister and like someone you can lean on and talk to about anything,” she said.Riley Skaggs, one of Berger’s pals, described her as someone who was “fun, loving [and] very smart.”

Robert Irwin's Heart-Stopping Encounter with a 14ft Crocodile Named Jimmy Fallon

Robert Irwin's Heart-Stopping Encounter with a 14ft Crocodile Named Jimmy Fallon

Robert Irwin has revealed the terrifying moment he was "death-rolled" by a 14ft crocodile but thankfully lived to tell the tale. The 22-year-old conservationist, who is the son of the late 'Crocodile Hunter' Steve Irwin, has followed in his father's fearless footsteps at the Australia Zoo. While both he and his late father are known for their bold interactions with some seriously dangerous creatures , it was Jimmy Fallon that almost landed Robert in a sticky situation. No, not that one - the crocodile that's named after the talk show host. Robert Irwin revealed he was 'death rolled' by a crocodile. Credit: Don Arnold / Getty Images Appearing on The Jimmy Fallon Show, Robert revealed that he'd name the croc when it was just a baby, adding: "He’s not a baby anymore. I named this crocodile Jimmy Fallon, like, years ago, and he’s now what we call a boss croc. He’s huge. "Because we research crocodiles in the wild to, like, better conserve them, right? So the way you do that — my dad came up with this — is you actually have to jump on them." Robert revealed that after he "jumped on the back of Jimmy Fallon" in the name of work, the crocodile “death-rolled” him. He explained: "I jumped onto him. I kid you not, 14 foot of crocodile, big croc, death-rolls me. So I’m stuck underneath him with my arm hanging out. "I’ve got like probably, I don’t know, maybe 700 pounds on top of me. And I’m just like, ‘What do I do?’ And luckily he rolled back the other way, and I was fine. But he’s a goer." Thankfully Robert survived the ordeal, but such entanglements with wild animals seem to run in his blood. His father, Steve Irwin, spent his life trying to teach the public to respect and protect all animals, before his tragic death in September 2006, when a stingray barb pierced his chest and fatally injured his heart, while filming a documentary on the Great Barrier Reef. Though Robert was only two years old when he lost his father, the young man has worked hard to continue his legacy, alongside his mom - Steve's wife Teri Irwin - and his sister Bindi, who was eight when their dad died. Robert is the son of late 'Crocodile Hunter' star Steve Irwin .Credit: Handout / Getty Images Robert shared on Instagram in October: "To continue this legacy is the honour of my life. If I can make my dad proud, I’ve done my job. Behind everything I do is a conservation mission that my dad started." Featured image credit: Don Arnold / Getty Images

Chris Appleton's Surprising Offer to Khloé Kardashian Sparks Buzz

Chris Appleton's Surprising Offer to Khloé Kardashian Sparks Buzz

Chris Appleton volunteered as tribute to break Khloé Kardashian's four-year dry spell. During the Thursday, October 8, episode of The Kardashians, Khloé, 42, revealed that the end of 2025 marked "four years" since she slept with someone. "Chris Appleton, he literally gets stunned every time he hears that I am still not sexually active. It's crazy," she told the cameras in a confessional. "He talks about this like I have leprosy." Khloé's sister Kim Kardashian suggested she rekindle her connection — briefly — with an ex, but she replied, "My recycle list is such gutter. No one wants me to recycle my list. They are the bottom of the barrel.” While listening to details about Khloé's love life, Chris, 43, admitted he is worried. In response, Kris Jenner replied, "Why don't you sleep with her then?" Chris said he would, but Khloé wasn't as thrilled by the suggestion. "My friends, they are all like, 'I will have sex with you,'" she quipped. "That's not what I am talking about." Kim, 45, teased, "That is so nice of Chris to want to do that." The hairstylist previously expressed his concerns about Khloé in a March 2025 episode of the Hulu series when he urged Kim and their friend group "get Khloé laid." "I just haven't been intimate in quite a long time," Khloé explained in a confessional about her decision to hit pause on dating. "We are going back to square one — born again." Khloé poked fun at Chris' investment in her sex life. "You are obsessed with knowing that I haven't had sex," she quipped. "He loves that I haven't had sex in so many years. I can get someone to have sex with me, I just don't want to have sex right now." The reality star has been candid about how her past relationships — and motherhood — have played a role in her reluctance to find a new partner. Khloé shares kids True, 8, and Tatum, 4, with ex Tristan Thompson. Before their split, the former couple dated on and off from 2016 to 2021, they called it quits for good after his multiple cheating scandals. "Tristan and I, we always get along great. Him and I have a great friendship relationship. We get along fine, and for my kids, I will put anything to the side. What's done is done, so why would I be still holding on to [past drama] for?" Khloé said on The Kardashians in June 2023. "I don't need to punish him because I am not getting back together with him." Khloé said setting boundaries helped her start fresh with the athlete. "If I am not here, he is here. I would rather him be here than a nanny. There are still boundaries. Like, I definitely put my foot down on a lot of things," she added. "No one is here chilling if there are no kids involved. It is always about the kids and that's what it is. But we are not hanging out by ourselves." Hulu releases new episodes of The Kardashians every Thursday.

A New Hampshire fisherman caught the state’s largest bluefin tuna weighing over 1,100 pounds — smashing a record that had stood for more than a decade.Brandon McGirl was hoping to reel in anything when he boarded the Out of Line, a Savage Charters NH boat captained by Jamie Savage, on Saturday for an overnight fishing trip out of Rye Harbor on the New Hampshire Seacoast, WMUR reported.“It was very difficult conditions to try and fish. It was a little bit rougher than we were hoping for,” McGirl told the outlet.Brandon McGirl and Captain Jamie Savage of Savage Charters NH landed a 1,116-pound bluefin tuna in New Hampshire, smashing the state record. ABC/WHAS11After hours on the open water — with almost nothing to show for their effort — the crew was gearing up to call it a night when, out of nowhere, McGirl’s reel began clicking.“They never come when you expect them to come,” McGirl said.The crew chased the fish for about a mile before finally getting it alongside the boat during the grueling struggle.With no way to get it on deck, they towed the fish back toward the harbor, where they lifted the beast from the water.“We lifted it out of the water and immediately knew it was way bigger than what we thought and bigger than anything either of us had seen before,” Savage said.The catch turned out to be a monster bluefin tuna that tipped the scales at 1,116 pounds — more than 150 pounds heavier than the previous New Hampshire record, set in 2013, the outlet reported.The men chased the fish for about a mile before finally getting it alongside the boat during the grueling struggle. ABC/WHAS11McGirl could barely believe what they had reeled in.“If you tuna fish for long time, to catch a 1,000-pound fish, is, I mean, it’s something that you dream of,” he told the outlet.A photo of the catch shows the tuna nearly as long as both men are tall, so big it barely fits in the boat.The record-breaking catch even drew congratulations from Gov. Kelly Ayotte the next day.“Now THAT is a catch,” Ayotte wrote on Facebook, sharing a link to WMUR’s report.The catch turned out to be a monster bluefin tuna that tipped the scales at 1,116 pounds — more than 150 pounds heavier than the previous New Hampshire record, set in 2013. Facebook/Bikes & BitesWhile the meat of the fish will be sold, the tuna’s tail will stay behind at the harbor, a souvenir of the record-setting day. ABC/WHAS11The catch also came close to a national mark. The largest bluefin tuna on record in US waters weighed 1,142 pounds, 12 ounces, and was caught off Block Island, Rhode Island, by J. Dempsey in September 1981 — about 27 pounds more than McGirl’s fish, according to On The Water.The tuna will be sold and could be shipped as far as Japan, but its tail will stay behind at the harbor, a souvenir of the record-setting day, WMUR reported.McGirl told Foster’s Daily Democrat that he’ll be paid by check later and doesn’t yet know what the fish will fetch.The record comes after fishermen in San Diego caught a nearly 500-pound bluefin tuna last month — and the largest bluefin ever caught on rod and reelThe beast weighed 446 pounds — with an estimated weight of 500 pounds whole.

Jenna Dewan's Fiancé Defends Her Amid Rumors of DWTS Chemistry

Jenna Dewan's Fiancé Defends Her Amid Rumors of DWTS Chemistry

Jenna Dewan's fiancé, Steve Kazee, is fiercely defending her after fans speculated about her alleged closeness with Dancing With the Stars pro partner Val Chmerkovskiy. "They don't have chemistry. They have too much chemistry. They have chemistry in the wrong places. Make up your minds," Steve, 50, joked in apparent Instagram replies to coverage about DWTS. "Ya'all really got too much time on your hands. The spouses are unbothered, stay hatin'." Steve spoke out over speculation among fans on social media that Jenna and Val exhibited inappropriate intimacy in the ballroom given that both are in long-term relationships with other people. (Jenna and Steve have been engaged since 2020 while Val's wife is fellow DWTS pro Jenna Johnson, who is paired with Glee star Harry Shum Jr. on the ABC reality competition this season.) "Also put respect on my queen's name and at least pronounce her name correctly when you try to slander her," Steve also reportedly wrote to his fiancée's critics. Jenna, 45, and Val, 40, have steadily improved their scores each week during Dancing With the Stars season 35. The couple started off with a solid score of 19 out of 30 for their tango on the season premiere while they soared to 24 points for their rumba on "Mariah Carey Night" on Tuesday, October 6. Last week, Steve showered Jenna with praise over how she's handled both the pressure of DWTS as well as potential criticism from the judges and viewers. "I could not be more in awe of this incredible woman,” Steve wrote after Yacht Rock Night on September 29. “The amount of literal blood, sweat, and tears she has poured into this journey over the last month has been beyond amazing to witness. The hours, the bruises, the blisters, the exhaustion, the nerves, the constant push to get better." The Tony Award-winning actor credited Jenna with giving herself "completely to this experience" of competing in the ballroom. "Somehow, through all of it, she is joy,” he wrote. “I think in life we should all want the people we love most to have the chance to fill their hearts with the things that make them feel most alive. To challenge themselves. To surprise themselves. To remember parts of who they are that maybe got buried beneath work, parenthood, responsibility, and just the everyday business of life.” Steve also celebrated the way his fiancée has handled "all the noise that comes with putting yourself out there" on a platform like Dancing With the Stars. "I’ve also watched her take on all the noise that comes with putting yourself out there like this. The opinions, the chatter, and the criticism that, despite best attempts, feels almost inescapable in this age of the almighty algorithm,” he added. “And what has impressed me most is that she keeps showing up with an open heart.” His lovely tribute concluded, "She listens, she works, she keeps learning, and she refuses to let any of it steal the joy she has found in doing this. I am just so damn proud of her and I am honored to stand beside her through it all. Keep dancing, baby. Keep filling up that heart. I’ll be right here cheering louder than anyone." Following this week's live show, Jenna opened up exclusively to Us about the mental and physical rigors of training for DWTS. "I keep saying that I knew it would be hard. I knew that would be a physically challenging situation. I didn’t realize how emotionally and mentally tough the whole process is too," she told Us. "But it’s a good tough.” Dancing With the Stars airs on ABC and Disney+ Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET.
