James Harden Arrested on Weapons Charge In Houston

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Ahead of Game 5 of the NBA Finals, basketball legend James Harden is making headlines for reasons that have nothing to do with sports.

The NBA icon — whose Cleveland Cavs were previously knocked out of the playoffs by the ascendant New York Knicks — was arrested early Saturday morning in Houston after police discovered a handgun in his vehicle during a traffic stop.

According to court records obtained by TMZ, Harden was driving a Mercedes through downtown Houston at approximately 3:40 AM when officers stopped the vehicle.

During the encounter, police allegedly spotted a handgun sitting in the cup holder of the car. Harden reportedly acknowledged that the weapon belonged to him.

The 36-year-old was subsequently arrested and booked into the Harris County Jail on a misdemeanor charge related to unlawful carrying of a weapon.

He was later released on bond and is scheduled to appear in court on June 22.

At this point, few additional details have been released regarding the incident, and Harden has not publicly commented on the arrest.

The legal trouble comes during what has already been an eventful year for the former NBA MVP.

Harden spent the latter portion of the 2025-26 season with the Cavs after being acquired in a February trade.

The veteran point guard averaged 20.5 points and 7.7 assists in 26 games with Cleveland and helped lead the team to the Eastern Conference Finals.

One of the most accomplished players of his generation, Harden has earned multiple scoring titles, 11 All-Star selections, and the 2017-18 NBA MVP award during a career that has spanned more than 17 seasons.

Now, however, attention has shifted away from his future on the court and toward the legal proceedings ahead.

We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Over the years, actor and heartthrob Daniel Craig has dated some very famous names.

But with the Sienna Miller and Kate Moss entanglements aside, what were his most serious entanglements?

How many times has been married and divorced?

And, for that matter, where do things stand today after his latest status update?

Fiona Loudon (1992 – 1994)

In 1992, Craig married Fiona Loudon, a fellow actor.

The two went on to welcome his first child, their daughter Ella Loudon.

However, it was not to last.

In 1994, the couple divorced.

Ella is now an adult actress and model. Publicly, she has expressed her admiration for her father’s work.

Heike Makatsch (1997 – 2004)

Many Americans might recognize German actress Heike Makatsch from her role in the extremely polarizing film, Love Actually.

Makatsch portrays Mia, a scheming office assistant.

From 1997 until 2004, Craig and Makatsch dated.

They ended their 7-year relationship on good terms.

According to Craig, relationships for actors are extra tricky. Filming schedules mean spending weeks or months apart, and not every relationship is able to thrive in that environment.

SATSUKI MITCHELL (2007 – 2010)

In 2005, Craig met Satsuki Mitchell on the set of The Jacket.

Mitchell is a film producer.

The two eventually began dating.

They became engaged, but never tied the knot.

Ultimately, they parted ways in 2010. This heartbreak left Craig open for his longest relationship to date. …

Rachel Weisz (2010 – ????)

Craig had actually known Rachel Weisz since years before either were household names — when they worked together on Les Grandes Horizontales in 1994.

They did not actually connect romantically until December of 2010, when they began to date.

On June 22, 2011, Craig and Weisz married in an intimate ceremony in front of only four guests — including his daughter and her son.

In the summer of 2018, Craig and Weisz welcomed Grace, their first child as a couple.

These two beloved actors remain together to this day. Good for them!

Rep. Randy Fine Pushes For Death Penalty For Karmelo Anthony

Reading Time: 3 minutes

On Tuesday, 19-year-old Karmelo Anthony was found guilty of murdering 17-year-old Austin Metcalf during a 2025 altercation at a high school track meet.

The news sparked tense debate across social media, as Anthony, who is Black, was sentenced to 35 years after being convicted by a jury with no Black jurors.

Now, Congressman Randy Fine is stoking the flames of controversy by insisting that Anthony deserved an even harsher sentence.

“Karmelo Anthony deserves the death penalty,” the Florida congressman tweeted this week, adding:

“Anything less is unacceptable.”

Now, Anthony is a teen who committed a non-premeditated murder during a heated confrontation, all of which would make him a highly unlikely candidate for the death penalty.

But Fine doubled down on his remarks when TMZ caught up with him earlier this week.

“What he did to that kid was horrible, and I think it’s important to tell our country that we’re not going to allow that kind of behavior,” Fine told the outlet.

“Part of the reason to send a message that strong is because of all the people who didn’t think he should be punished at all.

Watch full video on TMZ

When the TMZ journalist pointed out that Anthony could have received a lesser manslaughter conviction (and we don’t typically execute teens to make a political point in this country), Fine stood his ground.

“I think we need to send a message about behaviors we’ll put up with and behaviors that we won’t,” he said.

The Texas jury rejected Anthony’s self-defense claim, and he was eventually sentenced to 35 years in prison.

Fine was quick to express support for a harsher punishment after the verdict was revealed, maintaining that Anthony deserved the death penalty despite the fact that Texas law prohibited such a sentence because of Anthony’s age at the time of the crime.

His remarks immediately generated backlash from critics who accused him of politicizing a tragedy and inflaming tensions surrounding an already divisive case.

Others, however, applauded Fine for taking a hardline stance in support of the Metcalf family.

Prosecutors argued that Anthony escalated a dispute and fatally stabbed Metcalf, while defense attorneys maintained that Anthony feared for his safety and acted in self-defense. Jurors ultimately sided with the prosecution and returned a guilty verdict.

Even after the conviction, the case has remained a lightning rod for political commentary, with public figures, activists, and elected officials continuing to debate everything from the sentence itself to the broader issues of race, justice, and accountability raised during the trial.

Fine’s latest comments ensured that those debates aren’t ending anytime soon.

Supporters argued that the severity of the crime warranted the harshest punishment available, while opponents pointed out that Anthony was legally ineligible for the death penalty because he was a juvenile when the stabbing occurred.

The congressman’s refusal to soften his position only fueled another round of heated exchanges online, where opinions about the case remain deeply divided.

Regardless of Fine’s intentions, the fact remains that more than one year after Austin Metcalf lost his life, the tragedy continues to generate strong emotions — and politicians like Randy Fine appear determined to keep themselves at the center of the conversation.

Brandi Glanville: I Got Throat Ringworm From an Adult Film Star! Just My Luck!

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Even though Brandi Glanville discovered the cause of her facial issues, her health battle isn’t over.

For one thing, she’s having symptoms again.

But Brandi has also revealed that she has ringworm in her throat.

She says that she contracted the infection sexually — from dating a porn star.

‘I feel like I have it … in my throat’

During her most recent Unfiltered podcast episode, Brandi abruptly shared some troubling news.

“I have a quick question,” she said. “Have you heard about sexually transmitted ringworm?”

What?

Brandi confessed: “I feel like I have it … in my throat.”

Though she did not name the man she suspects of giving her this infection, she did delve into some details.

According to Brandi, she was dating an adult film star — one who was, perhaps, a little naive.

“He would only, you know, my face because he didn’t want to get me pregnant,” Brandi explained.

Notably, pulling out is not a reliable form of birth control, even if perfectly executed every time. Thankfully, with Brandi, it’s moot.

“He didn’t know that ship had sailed,” Brandi revealed.

She joked: “I’m like, ‘Okay, whatever, I’m not going to correct you.'”

Okay so back to the ringworm …

According to Brandi, ringworm can go undetected among STIs because “It’s one of these things that most people don’t know what to look for.”

Unlike things like Texas’ new screwworm infestation (the first in over half a century after DOGE cut funding to the program that helped keep it at bay), ringworm is not actually a worm.

Rather, ringworm is a fungal infection of the hair, skin, or nails.

And, yes, ringworm can spread via skin-to-skin contact, including during sex.

“If it’s in your throat, they can burrow deep into your ears and all that,” Brandi characterized dramatically.

On her ‘Unfiltered’ podcast, Brandi Glanville gave a sad update on her face. (Image Credit: YouTube)

According to Brandi, ringworm can be “severe and difficult to treat.”

It’s not entirely clear if she received a diagnosis. If she did, we hope that she tells the sex worker whom she was dating. He and his professional and private partners have a right to know.

Meanwhile, Brandi has also been battling a resurgence of her “melting” face.

It’s also only been two months since she went to urgent care to get a clove of garlic — a home cure that she believed would help combat a cold — removed from her ear.

Brandi’s not having the best luck with health stuff right now. We hope that she chooses caution from here on out.

Nancy Guthrie Search Reignites with Chilling Anonymous Tip About Unmarked Grave

Reading Time: 2 minutes

The tragic kidnapping of Nancy Guthrie happened over four months ago.

This senseless crime has spawned unhinged conspiracy theories and led to an unprofessional blame game among agencies.

A haunting anonymous tip may have put rescuers on the right track.

Is Nancy in an unmarked grave at this location? Someone is.

The anonymous tip comes after well over 100 days since she was kidnapped

Buscando Corazones Nogales is a Mexican volunteer group that searches for missing people in, as the name would suggest, Nogales, Mexico.

(Nogales shares a border with Arizona, to the point that there is also a Nogales on the American side.)

This week, they received a grim tip about an unmarked grave.

The group mobilized, rushing to a remote area near the national border in an effort to find her possible remains.

Their search had the support of the Sonora State Commission for the Search of Missing Persons.

As January faded into February, an unknown individual abducted Nancy from her home in Tuscon, Arizona.

It was a violent abduction. Small traces of Nancy’s blood were found at the scene.

We do not know where the 84-year-old was then transported against her will.

There were immediate fears about her well-being, including because she did not have her medication.

Her home is located approximately 70 miles from the border. More than once, it has been suggested that a kidnapper may have opted to cross the border in order to thwart investigators.

They found unmarked graves, but no sign of her (yet)

When Buscando Corazones Nogales searched the area indicated by the anonymous tip, they did find unmarked graves.

Plural.

The group found 25 unmarked graves on the site.

However, there was no sign of Nancy.

The group contacted Mexican authorities. However, those authorities in turn apparently did not contact the Pima County Sheriff’s Department with any updates.

According to Pima County officials, they don’t have any positive news to share from the latest search. (Image Credit: Pima County Sheriff’s Office)

The group plans to return in the hopes of locating Nancy — or, at the very least, other unmarked graves.

It is possible that she could be found eventually, even if fresher graves would presumably be easier to find for searchers.

However, we have to acknowledge that it’s possible that she was never there.

Maybe the anonymous tip came from someone who believed her to be among the dead there.

It is also possible that someone hoped that the site would be found, and cynically calculated that naming a famous missing person might get it urgent attention. If so, they were right.

Our thoughts continue to go out to Savannah and the entire Guthrie family as this painful period of their lives continues.

Millie Bobby Brown Says She’s Still Hoping to Give Birth Some Day After Adopting …

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Back in August of 2025, Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi adopted a baby girl.

So the Stranger Things star is already a mom.

But if everything goes according to plan, her family is far from complete.

Millie opened up this week about motherhood, adoption, and her hopes for the future, revealing that while she still hopes to experience pregnancy one day.

Appearing on Kylie Kelce’s “Not Gonna Lie” podcast, Millie explained that adoption wasn’t some backup plan or last-minute decision.

In fact, she says it’s something she dreamed about since childhood.

“Always, always wanted to adopt,” she shared (via People), recalling that even her childhood dolls were “adopted” in her imagination rather than biological children.

The actress and Bongiovi announced last summer that they had welcomed a baby girl through adoption, describing the experience as the beginning of a beautiful new chapter for their family.

Since then, the couple has remained fiercely protective of their daughter’s privacy, declining to reveal her name or show her face publicly.

Brown made it clear that adoption doesn’t mean she’s closed the door on having biological children.

Quite the opposite, actually.

“It’s not because I don’t want that,” she said when discussing carrying a child herself. “Hopefully one day that’s in my future.”

The 22-year-old explained that she spent years learning about adoption, birth mothers, and the social work side of the process before she and Jake ultimately decided to move forward.

She added that adoption wasn’t simply a way to start a family. Rather, it was something she felt deeply passionate about.

“Adoption is love, adoption is forever,” Millie said.

Of course, becoming a mother at such a young age has also brought plenty of criticism.

Because this is 2026, and the internet simply cannot let people live their lives as they see fit.

Elsewhere in the interview, Brown revealed that she’s been shocked by the judgment she’s received from other women since becoming a parent.

“I was like, ‘This is vicious. You are vicious.’ And I don’t have time for angry women that just need to feel like they need to bring you down, especially when it comes to motherhood. I’ve never experienced anything like this,” she said.

But thankfully, all that harsh judgment has not dissuaded Millie from expanding her family.

The actress has talked for years about wanting a large brood. Both she and Jake (the son of rock legend Jon Bon Jovi) come from families with four children, and she’s repeatedly said she hopes to follow a similar path.

For now, however, Brown seems focused on enjoying life with her daughter and navigating the challenges of first-time motherhood.

And judging by the way she talks about her family, it’s safe to say she’s loving every minute of it.

Is Serena Williams’ Use of GLP-1 a Performance-Enhancing Drug? Should Tennis Ban It?

Reading Time: 2 minutes

There are two big things to know about what Serena Williams has been up to.

The first is that she has confessed to using GLP-1 medications for luxury weight loss, even posting paid promotions.

The second is that she has returned to tennis several years after retiring.

But there’s growing buzz about banning BLP-1 as a performance-enhancing drug. Is she going to have to choose between them? Should she?

GLP-1s among athletes is relatively new territory

The New York Times is talking about it, so we are, too.

Last year, Serena announced her partnership with Ro — a company in which her husband, Alexis Ohanian, has invested.

According to her narrative, she struggled to lose weight after giving birth to two daughters, which led her to trying Zepbound.

Now, Serena has last weight and returned to the world of tennis — though she says that she’s only playing doubles for fun.

This does make her the most prominent athlete to have openly used GLP-1 drugs for luxury weight loss.

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Serena Williams (@serenawilliams)

Anti-doping authorities in the tennis world and beyond have been monitoring GLP-1 drugs since 2024, shortly after the fad took off.

For now, they are not a prohibited substance.

They are also not currently classified as a performance-enhancing drug by WADA (World Anti-Doping Agency).

It is possible that this will never change.

There are arguments for banning the use of GLP-1s in sports, allowing it, and also for something in between.

Do they actually enhance anyone’s athletic performance though?

In Tennis, anti-doping protocols are managed by the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA). WADA oversees compliance.

Serena claimed that, despite being one of the greatest athletes on Earth, she struggled to lose weight through diet and exercise until she began using a GLP-1 medication.

(Again, there is a financial stake given her husband’s investment, leaving some to question the credulity of her paid statements.)

Now, if GLP-1 use were to be considered a performance-enhancing medication, it might be for fat loss.

However, studies have shown that GLP-1 patients experience muscle loss. Obviously. Which would, if anything, sound like it would detract from an athlete’s performance.

Ultimately, this discussion sort of misses the point, doesn’t it?

First of all, politics can play a bigger role in what is and is not banned from competitions.

Marijuana could not reasonably enhance anyone’s athletic performance, yet it is generally banned for athletes.

Trans women on estrogen may be banned, even though their HRT would, if anything, reduce their athletic performance. Meanwhile, cis women with higher levels of testosterone could also be banned, simply for being themselves.

Medicalized starvation — which, ultimately, is what GLP-1 medication does — probably doesn’t give an athlete an edge on the field.

But athletes are maybe the last people who should be promoting this as a “healthy” option for those who do not medically need it, such as diabetes patients.
