Noah Brown: ‘Alaskan Bush People’ Star Opens Up About Finding Matt …

Reading Time: 2 minutes

We have more tragic details about the death of Matt Brown.

As we previously reported, the Alaskan Bush People star’s body was recovered from a Washington river on Saturday.

His younger brother, Noah Brown, revealed that he was the one who helped find and identify Matt.

In a video posted to Instagram, Noah explained that he had been actively participating in the search effort for his older brother when the discovery was made.

“We found my oldest brother, Matthew,” Noah said. “I identified it as Matthew. My oldest brother, Matthew Brown, has passed away.”

According to Noah, he was present when search volunteers located Matt’s body in the river and helped bring him ashore before authorities arrived.

“I was there when we pulled him out of the river,” Noah said, adding that he later formally identified his brother using documents found on him as well as visual confirmation.

The reality star also thanked the volunteers, local residents and search groups who assisted in the effort, expressing gratitude to everyone who refused to give up hope during the search.

He then apologized to friends and supporters he had not yet been able to contact personally and acknowledged the overwhelming grief his family is experiencing.

“We hauled him up off the bank. And then, after the sheriffs got there and everything, the coroner did his thing, and I went down to identify that it was him,” Noah said, adding:

“It’s definitely Matthew. His ID and Social Security card was on him, and I was able to visually identify that it was Matthew.”

Perhaps most heartbreaking was Noah’s final message to his brother.

“I’m sorry it came down to this,” he said through tears.

Matt’s death has stunned fans of Alaskan Bush People, where he appeared as one of the original cast members when the Discovery Channel series premiered in 2014.

He later stepped away from the show to focus on recovery after years of publicly documented struggles with substance abuse.

The tragedy marks yet another painful loss for the Brown family, who also lost patriarch Billy Brown in 2021.

At this time, officials have not released a final coroner’s report. However, Matt’s brother Bear Brown has publicly stated that the family believes his death was self-inflicted and has spoken openly about Matt’s long struggles with addiction and mental illness.

For now, Noah’s words serve as a painful reminder that behind every headline is a grieving family trying to make sense of an unimaginable loss.

If you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of suicide, call or text 988 in the United States to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Help is available 24 hours a day.

Morgan Wallen Overturns Piano After Technical Difficulties on Stage

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Some days, it seems like you can’t hurl a chair from a rooftop without hitting a Morgan Wallen fan.

But he has once again found himself under scrutiny.

Even though the singer has pleaded guilty and promised to remedy his ways, he still shows signs of behavioral problems.

This time, the piece of furniture was a piano. One technical difficulty on stage, and he lashed out.

In this still, Morgan Wallen performs on the same stage where he overturned a piano. (Image Credit: YouTube)

The piano did not deserve this

On Friday, May 29, the Country singer was performing at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver.

Despite his numerous scandals, Wallen continues to draw crowds.

(So does Kanye West; some people just want to hear music and do not care about anything else.)

On stage, the singer experienced technical problems during his performance of the song, “Sand in My Boots.”

Finding that the instruments weren’t working to his satisfaction, 33-year-old Wallen tipped over the piano and walked away from it, finishing the song a cappella.

While playing “sand in my boots” Morgan gets off the piano cause it isn’t work as it should. He finishes acapella then proceeds to push the piano over, breaking it! #morganwallen #night1 #acapella #country #denver

Apparently, the sound from the piano wasn’t reaching Wallen or his audience.

The concert it self was part of the singer’s “Lies Lies Lies” tour.

Wallen began the tour on April 10. It is set to conclude later in the summer, on August 1.

He has yet to publicly respond to the incident.

In the video and on social media, responses are mixed.

Come to think of it, this is not the first piece of furniture to get this kind of treatment

Some of Wallen’s supporters (they are real and they do exist) have said that this was a playful moment on stage.

However, some have noticed that the singer appears to have a history of “moments.”

When Wallen has one of his “moments,” being a piece of furniture is ill-advised.

Famously, he was arrested after throwing furniture off of a rooftop in Nashville.

Fortunately, no one was hurt. Unfortunately, Wallen avoided any real consequences, which some believe means that his behavior will not change.

It is not actually normal or healthy for someone to overturn a piano.

Not merely because pianos are expensive and heavy, but because it’s not normal for people to overturn or destroy furniture.

Whatever Wallen has going on with him, it has led him to make a series of very public mistakes like this.

Some are assuming that, on his tour, he has fallen off of the wagon. We would caution that someone can make poor behavioral choices while entirely sober.

We hope that he gets whatever help he needs.

Sydney Sweeney Goes Topless as Middle Finger to Critics Who Say Euphoria Finale Was …

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Well, for better or worse, Euphoria wrapped up its run on HBO last night.

And the response from critics has been less than euphoric, with some comparing the show’s final episode to other disastrous finales of recent years, including Game of Thrones and Stranger Things.

The movie-sized, 100-minute finale brought most of the series’ major storylines to an end, but some viewers were not thrilled by the fact that the episode felt more like a Tarantino-esque action movie than a show about high school friends and rivals.

The final episode of HBO’s ‘Euphoria’ left some fans downright furious. (HBO)

“Move over, Game of Thrones and Stranger Things, there’s a new worst finale in town,” wrote Page Six critic Lauen Sarner.

“Euphoria Season 3 ended the way it began: tawdry, tasteless, and squandering its all-star cast with ludicrous writing.

The review went on to note some of the most common complaints about the finale, including the fact that after centering Sydney Sweeney’s OnlyFans storyline for much of the season, the writers treated Cassie like an afterthought in the finale.

But at least by bringing her together with her best friend Maddie and sister Lexi to run a business catering to adult content creators, the show stops punishing Cassie for her decisions.

“To the extent that anybody gets a ‘happy ending,’ it seems to be these three women living together in a weird large house with yellow decor,” Sarner wrote.

The same can’t be said for Zendaya’s Rue, who — as many predicted — passed away from an accidental Fentanyl overdose.

Oddly, her death comes not in the final moments, but halfway through the episode.

The climactic conclusion is instead reserved for a gun battle between one relatively minor character (albeit a beloved one, Colman Domingo’s Ali) and one who was just introduced this season (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje’s Alamo).

A showdown between two men in their fifties probably isn’t the finale viewers would have predicted when this show about troubled teens got its start back in 2019.

Of course, Euphoria has always thrived on defying expectations and confounding critics.

Unfortunately, it’s not easy to continually raise the bar in terms of shock value — at least not without winding up in a thoroughly ridiculous place.

Showrunner Sam Levinson likely knew that the finale would receive a divided response. But ironically, the Euphoria finale’s biggest sins had little to do with sex and violence and everything to do with bad pacing and unsatisfying character arcs.

We’re sure Levinson is unconcerned, and the same can be said for his biggest star, Sydney Sweeney, who celebrated the finale with a massive carousel of pics of her most memorable Season 3 moments.

Maybe Cassie was always destined for a happy ending. And maybe Sydney’s post is meant to remind us that Euphoria is just one small chapter in the story of her career.

Whatever the case, many viewers have made note of the fact that HBO lists last night’s episode as a season finale, rather than a series finale. So we may not have seen the last of Cassie Howard.

Former Prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor Facing NEW Investigation for Sexual Misconduct, …

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Remember when we reported that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is under investigation?

Investigators are now looking into yet another alleged wrongdoing. A wholly separate incident.

This time, it’s an alleged wrongdoing at the Royal Ascot.

He’s under investigation for sexual misconduct, for fraud, and more.

This incident is from 2002

According to The Sunday Times, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is under investigation after an alleged incident at the Royal Ascot in 2002.

Police say that they are “examining events in 2002 as they consider wider possible crimes by Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.”

Authorities added that these potential crimes are “including sexual misconduct, ­corruption, and fraud.”

The context is an alleged encounter with a woman.

The Royal Ascot sounds like . . . almost anything English. But it is a racing festival of some renown for the residents of beans-on-toast island, and has been attended by numerous royals.

We do not know more specific information about the 2002 incident at this time.

Police did not specify if the interaction was only reported recently.

Andrew has, for all of his life, enjoyed enormous protections against consequences for his actions.

It is possible that his alleged wrongdoings were reported in 2002 but effective ignored or buried, due to his erstwhile status.

But he is no longer a prince. He is, as he has always been, a man with money and privilege that he has never deserved.

What we already know may just be the tip of the iceberg

We previously reported that Thames Valley inspectors are looking into past misdeeds that the former prince may have committed.

Andrew was arrested on his 66th birthday.

The arrested was on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

And the specific misconduct was that he is accused of slipping classified information to Jeffrey Epstein.

Epstein died — allegedly by suicide — in his cell back in 2019. Most of his associates have attained high places in governments and business, from top officials in the UK to Donald Trump himself.

Andrew’s reputation has really never been good. However, things came to a head through a series of events — including a disastrous interview — made Andrew one of Epstein’s most infamous associates.

Even so, his status as the son of Queen Elizabeth sheltered him from many things, even when she stripped him of specific honors. These were symbolic gestures, and not punishments.

King Charles has publicly withdrawn further protections from Andrew, even stripping the monarch’s brother of his land and titles. That, too, is a symbolic gesture, but it allows investigations to proceed.

Prince William and Kate Middleton are both said to despise their royal uncle due to his alleged crimes.

Whether that is true or simply a story that the royal firm has released in order to distance the family from Andrew’s crimes remains unclear. Functionally, it probably doesn’t matter — he’s not getting any protection from one of the planet’s most powerful families as police investigate.

Ariana Grande Pregnant? The Rumor & The Truth

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Is Ariana Grande pregnant?

In recent months, some people have body-shamed Ariana over her ultra-slender appearance.

Now, some of the denizens of TikTok are reporting something very different about her body.

Is this just a rumor? Wishful thinking? A new angle of body-shaming? Or is Ariana Grande now Ariana Pregante?

Is Ariana Grande pregnant?

“Ariana Grande is reportedly three months pregnant,” a TikTok video reports. And it is not alone.

The post went on to claim that she “discovered she was expecting in October, the same day as her first Wicked press interview.”

That is incredibly specific!

Presumably, the father would be Ethan Slater, Ariana’s Wicked castmate.

Multiple comments below the video show that even the TikTok audience isn’t immediately convinced. And that’s saying a lot, folks. TikTok is a notorious vector of disinformation.

In fact, a series of TikTok denizens asked the same question: “Does Ariana know?”

The implication, of course, is that this is a baseless claim and that Ariana is not, to her knowledge, pregnant.

It’s worth investigating where the rumor originates.

Is there a source for saying that Ariana Grande is pregnant?

Ariana Grande has not made any pregnancy announcement.

Her silly little guy, the Spongebob musical star Ethan Slater, hasn’t either.

Sometimes, pregnancy news leaks from close family or friends or even professionals.

Many celebrities know that contacting first responders or visiting a hospital is barely different from calling certain tabloids directly.

But this doesn’t come from TMZ or People or Page Six. This isn’t even a dubious Deuxmoi claim.

And it doesn’t seem to match up with any blind items, to our knowledge.

Thus far, we’re just seeing unsubstantiated claims on TikTok.

Which is a lovely place for people to do duets with strangers or to share recipes for food. Not so much for, like, actual information about the world.

On the positive side for Ariana, this rumor doesn’t appear to be body-shaming. She is extremely slender.

In fact, this may be a form of wishful thinking from some of her fans.

Maybe they’d like to see her have a kid, even if it’s with Ethan, who pretty famously already had a kid shortly before the downfall of his marriage.

Right now, having a baby probably isn’t her focus

Ariana Grande just dazzled audiences with Wicked, even taking home a “Rising Star” award even though she has been a household name for a decade and has been acting since she was a child.

Presumably, if she’s serious about Ethan (which many of her fans would not understand, but that’s her business), she’ll want to spend more time considering their next step.

Not only did Ethan exit a marriage relatively recently, but so did she.

Taking time to reassess your next step is always a good idea.

Matt Brown Cause of Death: ‘Alaskan Bush People’ Star Was 43

Reading Time: 2 minutes

The tragic search for Matt Brown has come to a heartbreaking end.

Just days after family members publicly expressed fears that the former Alaskan Bush People star had died, authorities and search crews reportedly located his body in a Washington river.

He was 43 years old.

According to TMZ, Brown’s body was discovered Saturday in the Okanogan River after an extensive search effort that had stretched on for several days.

The discovery reportedly came after private search volunteers continued looking even after official search operations had been suspended because of dangerous river conditions.

Brown’s brother, Bear Brown, confirmed the news in an emotional social media video.

“They found a body in the river a few hours ago, and it was positively identified as Matt,” Bear said, adding that their younger brother Noah was present and helped identify and recover the body.

At this time, an official cause of death has not been released, and authorities are awaiting further examination by the coroner.

The discovery follows a week of growing concern about Brown’s well-being.

Earlier reports indicated that family members had become alarmed after losing contact with him. Witnesses reportedly told authorities they had seen a man in the river near Oroville, Washington, before he was swept away by the current.

A firearm was also reportedly recovered near the scene.

Search crews spent days combing the area using boats, sonar equipment, divers, personal watercraft, and cadaver dogs.

But worsening weather and rising water levels eventually forced officials to suspend active search efforts.

Brown had struggled publicly with addiction for years and had become increasingly isolated from much of his family.

He entered rehab in 2016 and later spoke openly about his battle with substance abuse. Family members previously told media outlets that they had become deeply concerned about his behavior in recent years.

As the eldest member of the Brown family, Matt appeared in nearly 80 episodes of Alaskan Bush People between 2014 and 2019, becoming one of the most recognizable faces on the Discovery Channel series.

Now, fans and loved ones are left mourning a reality star whose life was often marked by both adventure and struggle.

If you or someone you know is experiencing emotional distress or having thoughts of suicide, help is available. Call or text 988, the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Donnie Wahlberg Divorced: His Marriage History With Jenny McCarthy, Explained

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Donnie Wahlberg’s a divorced man, which might be a shocking thing for some to learn about Jenny McCarthy’s beloved.

The boy band heartthrob-turned-Blue Bloods star has always been careful about keeping certain aspects of his private life away from the public eye.

As a result, even diehard fans might not be clear about the details of Donnie’s family situation.

Is Donnie Wahlberg Divorced?

These days, Donnie is married to Jenny McCarthy, and by all accounts, the relationship is a healthy and stable one.

But the road to “happily ever after” was not without its twists and turns.

In fact, both Jenny and Donnie have been divorced.

As People reports, Donnie married Kim Fey in 1999, and the couple welcomed two children together.

However, in 2008, they decided to go their separate ways, citing “irreconcilable differences.”

Following a messy legal battle in which Kim requested sole custody of the kids, the divorce was finalized in 2010.

Court files were sealed, so we still don’t know how the judge ruled.

The exact cause of the split remains unclear. But at the time, many observers speculated that Donnie’s friendship with Canadian model Michelle Tomlinson was a factor.

Donnie and Jenny’s Second Act

Whatever the case, it wasn’t long before Donnie fell for his second wife.

It happened in 2012 when Donnie and Jenny both appeared on Andy Cohen‘s Bravo talk show, Watch What Happens Live.

Donnie recalled their first meeting while participating in Instagram’s “first photo challenge” in 2020.

“This was our first meeting at @bravoandy @bravowwhl — where Andy implored me to ask Jenny out,” he captioned a throwback pic of the future couple.

“I didn’t … however, we’d meet again a year later at her talk show @vh1 @jennymccarthy. And the rest, as they say, is history.”

Jenny later told the tale of Donnie’s fateful appearance on her talk show.

“I went a year without dating anybody,” she told New York’s 95.5 PLJ radio (via E! Online).

“So I don’t know if I was really randy or really ready. But he was there, and I gave him my phone number. I’ve never given a guy my number, but I was interested.”

These days, when they’re not on either coast for work, Donnie and Jenny reside in her native Illinois with their happy blended family.

Now that Blue Bloods has come to an end, Donnie is set to star in a Boston-based spinoff.

But no matter where life takes him, he’ll have Jenny by his side.
