Ryan Reynolds has returned fire after Martha Stewart said the Deadpool star was “not so funny in real life.” Stewart got candid on the game show Rent Free when she was trying to guess what celebrities respondents had selected as the most fun person to hang out with. Although she was certain that her good friend Snoop Dogg would be on the list, Stewart was less effusive in her prediction that Reynolds would show up. “He’s probably on the list just ‘cause he covers himself up in his movies and you don’t see his face—Ryan Reynolds, is he one of those?” she said. “And you want to know something? He’s not so funny in real life,” she added. “No, he’s not so funny. He’s very serious.” When pressed on her surprising take, Stewart doubled down: “He can act funny, but he isn’t funny. Maybe he can get to be funny again.” Reynolds wasn’t going to let Stewart get the last laugh, however. His rejoinder came in the form of a light-hearted X post on Saturday, in which he wrote: “I’d disagree with her. But I tried that once. The woman is unexpectedly spry. She really closed the gap after a mile or so.”

Scottish comedian Janey Godley, who found fame during the pandemic when she dubbed comedy videos spoofing Scotland’s political leader Nicola Sturgeon’s coronavirus news briefings, has died aged 63, her family has announced. Godley had been diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2021 and shared in September this year that her “chemo ran out of options.” She made headlines in 2016 when she held up a sign stating “Trump is a c---” outside Donald Trump’s Turnberry Golf Resort. Last month, Godley went viral on social media again as she shared a picture of herself holding a t-shirt which said: “Trump is still a c---.” Sturgeon paid tribute to Godley on X, calling her “one of the funniest people I have ever known.”

A 61-year-old surfer is lucky to be alive after a shark attack at Waiehu Beach Park in Maui on Friday morning, police said. Identified as “Kenji” as part of a GoFundMe to help with his recovery, the local surfer was bitten on the leg shortly after 7 a.m. while sitting on his surfboard. Other surfers reportedly helped him get back to shore after hearing his screams. His right leg was “completely severed just below the knee,” Maui County said in a statement. “I would like to commend the patient for his strength and wherewithal, getting himself to shore. I mean, that’s extraordinary. Whatever Good Samaritans offered assistance, I’d like to commend them as well,” said Maui Fire Department Assistant Chief Jeff Giesea. “Maui Police Department for their quick action applying two combat application tourniquets to the patient’s leg. That action is often the difference between life and death and of course our own personnel and American Medical Response for the professional services.” Kenji’s friends revealed the surfer said “I still love the ocean” after recovering from surgery.

A regional public health department in Idaho has outright banned COVID-19 jabs, the Associated Press reported Friday. The Southwest District Health Department board, which governs six counties along the Idaho-Oregon border, voted 4-3 against the recommendations of the district’s medical director, Dr. Perry Jansen. “Our request of the board is that we would be able to carry and offer those [vaccines], recognizing that we always have these discussions of risks and benefits,” Jansen said at the meeting last month. “This is not a blind, everybody-gets-a-shot approach. This is a thoughtful approach.” The ban appears to be the first such instance of a U.S. governmental body blocking inoculations, the AP noted. Vaccine misinformation has been proliferated not only at the local and state levels but also nationally by the likes of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Donald Trump’s transition team co-chair Howard Lutnick.

Rapper Sexyy Red, who just last year was singing Donald Trump’s praises, revealed on Friday that she has cast her vote for Kamala Harris. “I just voted!!! Don’t tell us what to do with our coochies!!” she tweeted, adding the hashtag #Kamala4President. In 2023, Sexyy Red pushed back against suggestions that Trump was racist or sexist, saying, “Once he started getting Black people out of jail and giving people that free money, aw, baby, we love Trump. We need him back in office.” And just three months ago, she performed in front a giant inflatable MAGA-style hat that read “Make America Sexyy Again” at the Lollapalooza festival in Chicago. All of that apparent support led Trump’s team to reportedly pursue Sexyy Red as a potential campaign surrogate. But in July, she shut down rumors that she would be performing at Trump’s Atlanta rally. And now, with just days to go in the race, she has made it very clear who she supports.

Imane Khelif, an Algerian boxer who won a gold medal at the 2024 Olympics this year, is featured on the new cover of Arabian Vogue. Khelif was the subject of a torrent of hate and misinformation during the Paris Games, with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling just two of those who questioned her win—and her identity. Allegations doubting her gender were refuted by the International Olympic Committee, who referred to the controversy as “unaccepted hate speech.” Khelif called the ordeal a “very difficult experience” in her interview with the fashion magazine. “Despite winning the gold medal, that one event felt like a whole lifetime,” she said. “I was able to overcome it all thanks to my faith in God, in myself, and my dream. Without such challenges, I would never have become a champion.” Khelif, who Vogue Arabia described her therein as someone “redefining Arab beauty., posed for her photoshoot in structured suiting and punchy tailored pieces. She also talked about her childhood and boxing career, and said she always comes back to one phrase: “In suffering, champions are born.”

The owners of a squirrel with a dedicated social media following are speaking out after Peanut was seized and euthanized by New York government officials. Michael Longo and his wife, Danielle, told TMZ that the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation “raided” their home in search of Peanut Wednesday after anonymous complaints. Although owning a squirrel is illegal in New York, Longo was still shocked by the turn of events. Peanut lived with the couple for seven years and had over half a million followers on Instagram.

“To the group of people who called DEC, there’s a special place in hell for you,” Longo wrote on Instagram. Longo told TMZ that his wife’s immigration status was questioned during the raid, and his pet raccoon was also taken. Both Peanut and his raccoon were euthanized during rabies testing. “For the last 7 years, Peanut has been my best friend,” Longo wrote. “He’s been the center of my world and many of yours for so long, I don’t know how to process this, emotionally.”

The Antenna Group, a Greek media company, is in talks to buy Time from Salesforce co-founder Marc Benioff, CNBC reported Friday. Talks are still early, according to CNBC. Benioff bought Time in 2018 for a reported $190 million from Meredith Corp, which owned the media company for less than a year. Early talks with Antenna are to sell Time for $150 million. The possible shake-up comes at a turbulent time for media companies and their billionaire owners. The Washington Post recently shed 10% of its subscriber base after owner Jeff Bezos blocked their endorsement of Kamala Harris. The Los Angeles Times also faced pushback when its billionaire owner, Patrick Soon-Shiong, also blocked their Harris endorsement. A spokesperson for Time told CNBC that there is “no agreement” to sell the company, but declined to comment on the talks with Antenna.

Donald Trump’s Scottish company, which runs his golf courses in the country, has called First Minister of Scotland John Swinney’s endorsement of Kamala Harris “appalling,” according to the BBC. “People in the United States of America should vote for Kamala Harris,” Swinney said to reporters earlier this week. “And I’ve not come to that conclusion only because Donald Trump is opposed to Scottish independence.” (Trump, whose mother was born and raised in Scotland before emigrating to the United States, said on the Flagrant podcast earlier this month that he hopes Scotland stays with the United Kingdom.) Trump International Scotland subsequently released a statement condemning Swinney‘s support of Trump’s rival. “The Trump family has shown unwavering commitment to Scotland—pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into the Scottish economy—and driving many tens of thousands of international visitors to Scotland every year,” spokeswoman Sarah Malone said. “It is appalling to see the first minister, who talks of the need to encourage economic growth, insult this commitment and all the people involved in delivering world-class services here in Scotland.”

Megan Thee Stallion has admitted to lying to journalist Gayle King during a 2022 TV interview, but King responded that she has nothing but love for the rapper. Stallion made the confession in her newly released Amazon documentary, Megan Thee Stallion: In Her Words, and called King a “b---h” during her explanation. “Yes, b---h. I lied to Gayle King, b---h. First of all, I ain’t know that b---h was even finna ask me about that s–-t. I thought we was gonna talk about this shooting,” said Stallion, referring to her being shot in the foot by fellow rapper Tory Lanez. He was found guilty and sentenced to 10 years in prison last year. When King asked Stallion if the two had a sexual relationship, she said they were just close friends. However, that was a lie, according to Stallion, revealing that she slept with Lanez one or twice while “out of her mind” drunk. King said there are no hard feelings, especially considering everything she has been through. “I have nothing but great, great love and respect for Meg Thee Stallion. Cheering her on always,” King said. “I got nothing but love for Meg Thee Stallion.”
