Jelly Roll has now shed more than 200 pounds, and he’s celebrating his weight loss in style . . . by hopping on a motorized scooter in Berlin, Germany. Jelly posted a video of the moment, happy as can be. Here’s what he said: “This is big news in my world . . . I haven’t been skinny enough to ride a scooter like this in like eight years, no, 12 years, 10 years.” Jelly’s overseas right now on his first European tour. He’s supporting Post Malone on the Big [Butt] World Tour. Pretty cool that Jelly has shed all that weight.
Lainey Wilson said there are so many fake A.I. photos of her online that it’s getting weird. After she got engaged to former Steelers quarterback Duck Hodges, the internet was flooded with A.I. “wedding” photos . . . and one where she’s got six fingers and she’s holding a pregnancy test. Here’s what Lainey said about it, “It definitely freaks me out . . . People were really believing it. Folks were calling my parents, being like, ‘They already got married?'” The problem isn’t just that these photos are misleading. Many of them are coming from Facebook pages designed to drive traffic to shady third-party websites selling random merchandise. Some of these posts rack up tens of thousands of likes before anyone calls them out. These fake photos and posts aren’t just annoying . . . they’re actively misleading fans and family, while profiting off the confusion.
Back in 2013, Randy Travis suffered a massive stroke and spent two days in a coma. It was so bad that doctors told his wife Mary he had less than a one percent chance of living. After months in the hospital, battling other complications, the medical team even suggested that she “pull the plug.” But Mary refused. Here’s what she said, “He squeezed my hand and a tear went down his face. I said, ‘He’s still fighting.'” Now more than a decade later, Randy is still with us. He uses a wheelchair much of the time and suffers from aphasia, which limits his ability to speak and sing. But it’s a miracle he’s still alive.
