This was something that the real Sheeran confessed to author Charles Brandt in I Heard You Paint Houses, the non-fiction book the Netflix movie is based on. Some, however, have questioned how truthful this confession really was. Many think that Sheeran had something to do with the death. As a Slate article, provocatively titled ‘The Lies of The Irishman,’ details, one theory has it that Sheeran was hired to ride along in the car that took Hoffa to the place of his murder in a Detroit house due to Hoffa trusting his fellow official in the Teamsters....

While pundits make their usual debates about so-called cancel culture, Disney has a dilemma on its hands. Do they end the character now that Carano is out and miss out on the lucrative merchandising around a popular character, or do they simply recast the character and restart the selling of toys, collectibles and other merch featuring the Cara Dune’s likeness? There are currently conflicting reports about exactly what Disney and Lucasfilm plan to do with the character—sometimes in the same article....

Jenny McCarthy had pegged Gasteyer as the Tree in last week’s episode after cycling through other SNL performers who could give the personality and theatrical performance that The Tree gave. This means that McCarthy has three correct guesses for the season. McCarthy also pegged the identities of the Butterfly and The Flower—Michelle Williams and Patti LaBelle, respectively. For Ken Jeong, the unmasking of Gasteyer was an apparent shock, as he and the actress are friends and have worked together in the recent production of A Christmas Story - Live!...

The Jedi Knight is already a powerful character, but why not spice it up a bit by adding some variety to your play style? A not so-long-time-ago, we told you about the Sith specialization classes, the Marauder and Juggernaut, who played DPS and tank roles, respectively. The Jedi’s specialization classes have a similar flair, but in a less dark-side way (blah).

White fled and called the police from her cell phone. Doctors found traces of gamma hydroxybutyric acid (GHB)–a recreational drug that is fueling a growing number of rapes–in her system.

The evidence that Schneider found, in fact, was enough to get Cleggett’s medical license revoked in 2002. Per Oxygen, an evidentiary hearing was set up to allow Cleggett to appeal the decision, but she did not turn up due to being in a psychiatric ward at the time....
