Sunday’s face-off between the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Houston Texans devolved into a fight between the two teams after a late hit forced Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence out of the game with a concussion. The scuffle ensued after Houston linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair launched himself helmet-first at Lawrence as he went to slide in the second quarter. As Lawrence lay motionless on the ground, his teammate Evan Engram ran up and shoved Al-Shaair, starting a benches-clearing brawl that delayed the game for several minutes. Both Al-Shaair and Jacksonville cornerback Jarrian Jones were ejected from the game for unnecessary roughness following the incident, and fans pelted Al-Shaair with garbage as he was escorted back to the team’s locker room. After things settled down, Lawrence was carted off the field and ruled out for the remainder of the game with a concussion. Houston coach DeMeco Ryans also denounced Al-Shaair’s hit at halftime, telling Fox Sports: “(The hit) is not representative of us.” The Texans ultimately won the game 23-20.

Margot Robbie Reveals Going Fully Nude in Iconic Movie Scene Was Her Idea

Wolf of Wall Street star Margot Robbie has revealed over a decade after the movie’s release that she was the brains behind its full-frontal nude scene. Robbie, who played alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in the 2013 film, wanted to stick to what the character would do even though director Martin Scorsese told her she could wear a robe if that would be more comfortable. “That’s not what she would do in that scene,” she told Talking Pictures podcast host Ben Mankiewicz in an episode last week. “The whole point is that she’s going to come out completely naked—that’s the card she’s playing.” She also revealed other times she took creative liberties when it came to the movie, including slapping DiCaprio’s character when he asked for a kiss.“The tone had been set that it was a bit of a free for all. It was like the crazier you are, the more Marty will like it. And the more screen time you’re going to get,” Robbie said.

Apple Martin, daughter of actress Gwyneth Paltrow and rocker Chris Martin, made her debut into society at a glitzy ball in Paris wearing a dress that took 750 hours to make. The 20-year-old was accompanied by both of her parents and her brother, Moses, at the annual Le Bal des Débutantes ball, which is often attended by the offspring of royalty and A-listers. “Le Bal is culturally linked to the 18th century English tradition of the débutante ball, wherein the young ladies were introduced into society,” wrote Le Bal des Débutantes on its website. Martin came in a custom Valentino dress, which featured several layers of silk plissé chiffon. According to Vogue, Apple Martin was the first debutante to wear custom Alessandro Michele, the creative director of the label. Apple Martin has primarily stayed out of the spotlight up until now. The ball has featured many stars in the past: Lily Collins, Ava Philippe, Scott Willis, Ella Beatty and more.

Failed attorney general pick Matt Gaetz has asked Elon Musk to buy CNN, days after the billionaire joked about purchasing MSNBC. The former U.S. representative turned Cameo star floated the idea on X, where he quoted a post showing the dramatic decline in primetime ratings post-election. “Acquisition Target, @elonmusk?” Gaetz wrote on X. Nielsen ratings data showed the network’s primetime audience fell 47% since the week prior to Election Day. President-elect Donald Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr. joked days earlier that he had the “funniest idea ever,” quoting an X post that falsely said Comcast was putting MSNBC for sale. “How much does it cost?” Musk wrote in response. As with CNN, the network has also suffered a dramatic dip in ratings, with the audience dropping off 53% since the week prior to Trump’s victory.

Ellen DeGeneres is setting the record straight following a report in The Daily Mail that “raging floods“ had ”engulfed” the former daytime talk show star’s “new multi-million pound mansion” in England. She said Sunday that the story is not true, writing in an Instagram post: “For those of you concerned, our UK farmhouse did NOT flood.” The clarification was an addendum to a post that otherwise celebrated the 20th anniversary of her relationship with her now-wife, actress Portia de Rossi. They married in 2008 and relocated to the UK after the recent U.S. presidential election, which saw President-elect Donald Trump win a second term in the White House. The two are said to have purchased an estate in the Cotswolds, a picturesque region in South West England with wide meadows and rolling hills. Parts of the area have been hit by severe flooding in recent days due to Storm Bert causing overflow of the upper River Thames.

Eddie Murphy’s son Eric Murphy has popped the question to Jasmin Lawrence, Martin Lawrence’s daughter. On Saturday, the offspring of comedy royalty announced the engagement on Instagram with a clip showing Eric walking Jasmin down a rose-petal aisle with candles lit throughout the room. A band played in the corner as Eric got down on one knee, with Jasmin saying yes. “We’re engaged!! God truly blessed us with a love that feels like destiny,” wrote Jasmin on her account. “We couldn’t be more excited for this next chapter.” Destiny it is-- the pair first announced their relationship on Instagram in 2021, and said that it wasn’t even their dads that connected the two. “My uncle actually introduced us,” Jasmin told InTouch Weekly in 2022. On Jimmy Kimmel in 2022, Martin told the host that they could have a “a comedy super-baby.”“We kind of just stay out of their business and let them do their own thing, and respect their thing,” Martin said at the time. Martin, who starred in the famous Bad Boys franchise, had originally wanted Will Smith’s character, who acts opposite him, to be played by Murphy. The two, however, have starred in the movies Life and Boomerang together.

A Connecticut mansion was torn up in flames after residents fried a turkey on Thanksgiving day, officials said. The fire began in the garage, where the turkey was being fried for 25 people who were at the estimated $2.8 million home. According to CT Insider, the home was at least 10,000 square feet. Firefighters from multiple departments fought the flames for over 16 hours, with the preliminary investigation pointing to a fried turkey. No injuries were reported, but the house was “deemed uninhabitable,” according to Weston Volunteer Fire Department. When firefighters arrived to the scene, the garage fire was “rapidly” going into the residence, officials said. To make matters worse, firefighters were unable to immediately access water since a car drover over the hose.

Steve Bannon has claimed that he knew from time in Connecticut federal prison that Donald Trump would win the election. In an interview with The Times of London, Bannon, who served four months behind bars for failing to comply with a subpoena related to the Jan. 6 congressional committee, said that his fellow inmates' lack of enthusiasm about Democratic candidate Kamala Harris indicated to him that there would be a Trump victory. “Number one, they think he’s gangster. Number two, they just admire him as a gladiator,” the former Trump aide said of the other inmates. Bannon, 70, was released from Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Conn. on Oct. 29, just one week before the 2024 election.

Sophie Trudeau Won’t Rule Out Own Political Run

Sophie Grégoire Trudeau may be separated from the prime minister of Canada, but that does not mean that she’s done with politics. In an interview with The Telegraph, the former first lady of Canada, 49, said she won’t rule out going into politics. “I believe you can be in service to fellow human beings in many different ways,” she said. “And politics is not the only way. As I said I will be serving in my own way. There’s no yes or no. I will continue to serve in the best way that I can. There are many ways to serve.” However, Trudeau, who was married to Justin Trudeau for 18 years before splitting in 2023, said she does not put pressure on the couple’s three children to enter politics. “I think as parents we have to celebrate the authentic nature of our kids and try not to put the pressure on them that the world already puts [on them], whether you are children of political figures or not,” she said.

Gay couples are rushing to tie the knot and start fertility treatments before Donald Trump’s inauguration, NBC News reported. Same-sex marriage has been legal in the United States since 2015 after the landmark Supreme Court ruling, Obergefell v. Hodges decided that state bans on same-sex marriage were unconstitutional. Despite the high court’s ruling, some gay Americans fear that the Supreme Court may overturn Obergefell, much like it did Roe v. Wade in 2022. Mary Bonauto, who argued on behalf of same-sex couples in Obergefell, reportedly dismissed the likelihood of an overturned ruling. “I understand that there are things about these times that introduce a lot of uncertainty in people’s lives. I understand that,” she told NBC News. “But right now, and certainly for the foreseeable future, marriage equality is not one of the things that would change.” Still, in 2020, Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito signaled that they would be open to reversing Obergefell. It’s unclear, however, if the Trump administration intends to attempt a roll back of protections for same-sex couples. However, the president-elect has vowed to reinstate a ban on transgender Americans enlisting in the military and abolish gender-affirming care for transgender minors.
