Jake Paul bursts into tears as fiancée wins gold at Winter Olympics

Securing a medal for the Netherlands, speed skater Jutta Leerdam set a new Olympic record as she won gold while her fiancé Jake Paul watched on this evening (9 February).

And as she clocked an incredible 1:12.31 in the 1,000 metres, Paul was pictured bursting into tears of pride. The 27-year-old Dutch athlete had picked up silver in the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games with that year’s winner, Takagi Miho, picking up bronze today with 1:13.95.

Leerdam’s teammate Femke Kok took silver with 1:12.59. Her fellow Dutch speed skater had set the Olympic record with that time, adding the extra challenge for Leerdam afterwards.

While her YouTuber-turned-boxer partner watched on with a Dutch scarf, she was also seen wiping away the tears after crossing the finish line. Leerdam headed over to the sideboards, where she blew a kiss and made a heart shape with her hands to Paul.

The pair went Instagram official back in April 2023, with the social media star having slid into her DMs to invite the world champion onto his podcast. “I never, ever expected to date him, like never,” Leerdam revealed on the Countdown: Paul vs. Tyson documentary. “Of course, I didn’t know a lot about him.

I could only scroll on his Instagram and form an opinion like the whole world does. But he is the complete opposite.” Paul proposed to the athlete in March of last year while they were on a trip to St Lucia.

They announced the news in a joint Instagram post as they said they ‘can’t wait to spend forever together’. With her own huge following on social media, Leerdam was a bit of a favourite for today’s 1,000 metres event.

Having made her Olympic debut back in Beijing, during this pre-Olympic season, she took home the European title and multiple World Cup medals.

Paul has since shared videos on Instagram of himself in tears at the event, writing: “I’M SO PROUD OF YOU,” and “MY BABY JUST SET THE OLYMPIC WORLD RECORD.” In another post, picking up his fiancée, he wrote: “We just witnessed one of the most important sporting moments ever.

The doc will tell. Words can’t describe how proud of you I am.” He’d been showing plenty of support for Leerdam ahead of the event too, writing: “Today is your day baby. You’ve worked your whole life for this. We all love and support you so much, go get em champ.”

Footage from Trump's Super Bowl party reveals what he was actually watching during half time show

A video from Donald Trump's Super Bowl party has left many scratching their heads.

The US president was extremely outspoken in his thoughts on Bad Bunny headlining the Super Bowl half-time show yesterday (8 February), becoming the first artist to carry out an all-Spanish performance at the annual NFL championship game.

Trump admitted that the game was 'too far' for him to attend, but made sure to state of Super Bowl acts Green Day and Bad Bunny.: “I’m anti-them... I think it’s a terrible choice. "All it does is sow hatred. Terrible."

Regardless, fans were hugely entertained by both artists, with the latter bringing out a number of celebrities such as Lady Gaga, Pedro Pascal and even Jessica Alba, among others. Fans of Turning Point USA, an American nonprofit organisation founded by the late Charlie Kirk, were then given an alternative show called the 'All American' option.

They put on a show headlined by Kid Rock alongside Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett - despite some technical difficulties though, American Football fans looking for an alternative could tune in to Turning Point's half-time show on YouTube.

You'd assume then that Trump, who has openly supporting Turning Point and the Kirk family, would change the channel to support the All-American show, but a viral clip suggests otherwise.

Posted to X, the video shows Trump hosting a Super Bowl party at one of his golf clubs, but the alternative half-time show wasn't on the big screens set up across the venue. Instead, behind Trump, Bad Bunny can be seen performing on the Levi's Stadium pitch. You can view the footage here:

The Grammy winner could be seen on the mic, with the video then cutting to a clearer angle of one of the screens. In the background, a Bad Bunny song was added to further highlight the irony of the situation after Trump's scathing words towards the performances.

Trump even took to Truth Social to criticise Bad Bunny and co for an 'absolutely terrible' viewing. So maybe he did admit to tuning in after all. He wrote: "The Super Bowl Halftime Show is absolutely terrible, one of the worst, EVER! It makes no sense, is an affront to the Greatness of America, and doesn’t represent our standards of Success, Creativity, or Excellence.

"Nobody understands a word this guy is saying, and the dancing is disgusting, especially for young children that are watching from throughout the U.S.A., and all over the World."

Donald Trump might secretly have been enjoying Bad Bunny's electric performance, despite his public stance against him (X)

Trump said that the performance was a 'slap in the face' to the US, bragging about the nation having 'the Best Stock Market and 401(k)s in History'. The 79-year-old added that there was 'nothing inspirational' about the performance, claiming 'Fake News Media' will sing its praises, before getting a dig in at the NFL for its 'ridiculous new Kickoff Rule'.

Bad Bunny performed with the likes of Lady Gaga, Karol G, Cardi B, and even Ricky Martin for millions to see. But the headline act took the opportunity to get some political messages in, and even showed off a billboard message which read: "The only thing more powerful than hate is love."

Super Bowl halftime show branded 'worst of this century' but some viewers have hit back

As the Super Bowl LX halftime show got underway with Bad Bunny leading the highly anticipated event, some fans tuning in couldn’t help but feel out of their depth as they realized they couldn’t actually understand the performance.

Puerto Rican native Bad Bunny conducted his entire set in his native tongue Spanish, which left a proportion of Americans - and the wider global audience - struggling to follow along as they didn’t speak the language.

Taking to social media to express their frustrations, one fan even branded it the 'worst Super Bowl this century'. Another user also echoed the sentiment, commenting: "Why as Americans are we watching the Super Bowl half time show in Spanish? With English being our national language, I could not understand a word. Not prejudiced, just don’t understand."

A third user also echoed the same message, as they added: "Ok, I do think it was kind of weird that nearly the entire halftime show of the Super Bowl was in Spanish.… and I say that as someone who appreciates Latin culture."

Someone else penned: "Worst halftime show EVER!!" Bad Bunny’s performance entirely in Spanish will come as no grand shock to fans of the Grammy award-winning singer, as he has previously stated repeatedly that he doesn’t see the value in changing who he is to appeal to a mass audience.

He told Vanity Fair in 2023 that he would ‘never’ sing in English ‘just because someone says I need to do it to reach a certain audience’. "I think in Spanish, I feel in Spanish, I eat in Spanish, I sing in Spanish," he told the outlet.

The rapper has released seven studio albums, without a single full song in English. Not everyone was opposed to Bad Bunny's performance, however, with others praising the singer for his unique take on the iconic US sporting event.

"I am an old white guy who doesn’t speak a word of Spanish and I enjoyed the hell out of Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show," remarked one person. A second also agreed, adding: "The Bad Bunny Halftime show during the Super Bowl was done so well.

I don’t speak Spanish but he’s clearly very talented. The production was amazing. He seized his opportunity and crushed it. Congrats to him and the rest of the artists and performers." Another viewer simply commented: "Thank you NFL! We needed that!"

Approximately 42 to 59 million people speak Spanish in the United States, making it the second-largest Spanish-speaking country in the world after Mexico. This population includes roughly 41 to 42 million native speakers, along with 12 to 17 million bilingual or second-language speakers.

Prior to his performance, during an appearance on Saturday Night Live last year, Bad Bunny even jokingly encouraged his fans to learn Spanish ahead of his Super Bowl headliner, although he did later add that 'dancing' would also be a suitable alternative for those who hadn't quite brushed up on their language skills in time.

How much do artists get paid for the Super Bowl halftime show?

While you’d think that performing on one of the biggest stages in the world would earn you the big bucks, surprisingly, artists do not receive a direct paycheck for the Super Bowl halftime show. “We do not pay the artists,” NFL spokesperson Joanna Hunter told Forbes in 2016.

"We cover expenses and production costs.” Meanwhile, Brian McCarthy, the NFL's vice president of communications, confirmed that Super Bowl performers do get a ‘union scale’ - a minimum wage guaranteed by a union contract. This is largely because the halftime show is not just a performance, it’s a money can’t buy opportunity for promotion and exposure.

After Rihanna took to the Super Bowl stage in 2023, her Spotify streams in the US soared by more than 640 percent, while song sales and searches for her Fenty Beauty brand also increased. Jennifer Lopez reportedly gained over two million new followers across her social media after she headlined the halftime show with Shakira in 2020.

Following The Weeknd's 2021 Super Bowl performance, demand for his concert tickets skyrocketed. His After Hours Til Dawn tour has since become the highest-grossing tour by a male solo artist in history after raking in $1 billion.

Hospital Issues New Update on Lindsey Vonn as Team USA Chief Speaks Out

Lindsey Vonn suffered a fractured left leg as a result of her horror crash in the women's downhill final at the Winter Olympics, the hospital treating her have stated.

Vonn crashed out of the women's downhill event in Cortina after her right ski pole clipped an outside gate shortly before the first timing point. The contact forced the 2010 Olympic champion off balance, and resulted in her hitting the ground hard before tumbling down the course.

She was subsequently airlifted to hospital via medical helicopter after receiving treatment on-site. Vonn was attempting to become the oldest skier, man or woman, to win an Olympic medal in alpine skiing.

The 41-year-old had already made the remarkable decision to compete in the downhill final just nine days after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in her left knee during a crash at a World Cup event.

After her crash on Sunday, the US Ski and Snowboard Team issued a statement confirming that Vonn was in a 'stable condition' and undergoing treatment.

She was transported to the Ca' Foncello Hospital in Cortina, with Sky Sports reporter Geraint Thomas claiming there were initial concerns that she may have to be airlifted to a bigger facility near the city of Verona.

The hospital have now released a statement confirming that Vonn has undergone an 'orthopaedic operation' to a stabilise a left leg fracture. They add that she is being treated by a 'multidisciplinary team'.

Chief of sport for US Ski and Snowboard, Anouk Patty, has stated that Vonn will be 'OK' but anticipates a lengthy recovery process for the skiing legend. "She'll be OK, but it's going to be a bit of a process," Patty told reporters.

"This sport's brutal and people need to remember when they're watching, these athletes are throwing themselves down a mountain and going really, really fast." Vonn's US team-mate, Breezy Johnson, won gold in the women's downhill after the event was paused for around 20 minutes following the crash.

She told reporters that, according to her coach, Vonn had been 'cheering for me' from the medical helicopter. "Her coach said she was cheering for me in the helicopter, so I hope for the best for her," Johnson said (via People).

"I hope that it's not too bad. My heart aches for her. It's such a brutal sport sometimes. "It can hurt you so badly but you keep coming back for more."

Team USA Issue Statement on Lindsey Vonn's Condition After Horror Crash

An official update has been issued on the condition of Lindsey Vonn after the US skiing legend crashed out of the women's downhill final at the Winter Olympics.

Vonn crashed out of the women's downhill final in Cortina shortly before the first timing line. The 2010 Olympic champion clipped one of the gates with her right ski pole, which caused her to twist off balance and hit the ground at high speed, landing on the back of her skis.

Vonn tumbled down the course and appeared to hit her head before she came to a halt. Medical staff immediately attended to the 41-year-old, before she was airlifted away from the course via medical helicopter.

Vonn had been looking to become the oldest skier, man or woman, to win an Olympic medal in alpine skiing. Her dreams were dealt a significant blow just nine days before the downhill final, when she tore the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in her left knee after crashing in a World Cup event in Crans-Montana.

But despite the severity of the injury, Vonn declared that she would compete at the Olympics, and completed two training runs to allow her to ski in the final. The final itself ended in heartbreak for the US sporting legend, but the violent nature of the crash - coupled with her already torn ACL - meant attention immediately turned towards Vonn's condition.

After several hours of speculation, the US Ski and Snowboard Team have issued a statement to confirm that Vonn is in a 'stable condition' in hospital.

"Lindsey Vonn sustained an injury, but is in stable condition and in good hands with a team of American and Italian physicians," the statement reads. Speaking on NBC, Vonn's sister Karin Kildow gave an update on the 41-year-old shortly after she was airlifted away from the course, admitting that her family had been given little information at that stage.

"It was scary because when you start to see the stretchers being put out, it's not a good sign but, we were just saying, she just dared greatly and she put it all out there, so it's really hard to see. But we just really hope she's okay.

"I don't really know what happens from her, obviously she was airlifted out, so I think we'll probably just wait. "She does have all of her surgeons and her PT staff here and her doctors, so I'm sure they'll give us a report, and we'll meet her at whatever hospital she's at.

"I think she's being evaluated right now, is the only thing we've heard." Sky Sports News reporter Geraint Thomas subsequently reported that Vonn had been transported to a facility in Cortina. "From what I'm hearing, via colleagues at Team USA, Lindsey Vonn is in Cortina, and is being treated there," Thomas said. "She is in hospital, being tended to by the medical teams there."

Thomas claims there were concerns that Vonn would have to be airlifted to a bigger facility near Verona. "We don't want to read too much into it, but it is good news that she is still being treated in Cortina, rather than being airlifted to a bigger hospital further down the valley to a city like Verona, which is probably the closest city to Cortina," Thomas added.

"There were initial fears that it was really, really, really serious. "But the fact that we haven't had a terrible amount of news coming out of Team USA, and the fact that her team-mate Breezy Johnson, who took the gold medal, seemed to be a bit more relaxed in her press conference ... she's a close colleague and friend of Lindsey Vonn. Maybe at the moment, things are a bit better than they were a couple of hours ago."

US Olympic Athlete Pulls Off ‘Forbidden’ Move That’s Been Banned Since 1977

Winter Olympics history was made at the Milan-Cortina Games on Saturday (February 7) as an athlete pulled out a move that had not been legally completed in 50 years.

Despite the Games technically getting underway on Wednesday (February 4), following Friday’s (February 6) opening ceremony, the event is now well and truly in full flow with host nation Italy currently joint leading the medal table alongside Japan and Norway.

As ever, the Olympics provides opportunity for little-known competitors to make a name for themselves, and it’s fair to say American figure skater Ilia Malinin certainly did that. Twenty-one-year-old Malinin landed the first backflip at a Winter Games since 1998 at the Milano Ice Skating Arena on Saturday during the men’s short program team event, which earned him a score of 98.00.

A backflip was last landed by French skater Surya Bonaly at the Nagano Games 28 years ago – although the move was classed as being illegal at the time and she was subsequently penalised. And you’d have to go back 50 years to 1976 for the last time a legal back flip was landed at a Winter Games.

American Terry Kubicka performed the flip at the Innsbruck Games before it was banned by the International Skating Union (ISU) the following year, being deemed too dangerous. ISU legalised the backflip in 2024.

"It was fun," Malinin said after his performance. "I mean, come on, the audience just roared, and they were just out of control. Really, that just helped me feel the gratitude of the Olympic stage." He added: "I try to enjoy every single moment and be grateful for everything, because there are a lot of unexpected things that can happen in life. I'm taking everything to heart."

Despite impressing fans, Malinin could only finish second behind Japan's Yuma Kagiyama on Saturday.

Fans were quick to offer their thoughts on the stunning move on social media. One said: "Ilia Malinin is doing the free skate today and I fear I won’t be able to think about anything else until then." Another added: "He’s as cold as the ice he skates on."

A third commented: "Surya did it and landed on one foot." As a fourth claimed: "Bloke is surely making it up as he goes along."

Trump responds after JD Vance is booed at Olympic opening ceremony

Donald Trump has shared his thoughts on JD Vance receiving a frosty reception at the opening ceremony for the 2026 Winter Olympics.

The vice president, 41, didn't get the warmest of welcomes from sports fans who packed out the San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy, on Friday (6 February). Although athletes from the US were greeted with cheers as they walked out, Vance was booed when cameras cut to show him and his wife, Usha, proudly waving their country's flag.

There were boos, jeers and a bit of applause from the crowd - but Americans watching from home didn't get to see this, as it was reportedly cut from NBC’s broadcast. The four athletes representing Israel at the Winter Olympics in Milan and Cortina also received a similar reception when they emerged during the opening ceremony.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) president, Kirsty Coventry, had urged spectators at the opening ceremony to 'be respectful' earlier this week. But this warning apparently fell on deaf ears, given the reaction that Vance and Israel's athletes received.

Mark Adams, a spokesperson for the IOC, has since said of the jeers towards Vance: "In terms of the athletes and the teams, whatever background, whatever country they're from, I don't think we like to see booing, we want to see sportsperson-like behaviour from everyone.

It's important that we support our athletes." The US president has also chimed in on the debate surrounding the crowd's reaction to Vance, saying he was 'surprised' that the politician was met with jeers.

While speaking to reporters onboard Air Force One on Friday, Trump said: "It’s surprising because people like him. Well, I mean, he is in a foreign country, in all fairness. But he doesn’t get booed in this country.” Which isn't exactly true...as Vance has been booed on American soil plenty of times before.

He was booed while making a speech at the International Association of Fire Fighters in August 2024, as well as in March last year when he rocked up to a gig at the Kennedy Center around 25 minutes late.

Vance's wife, Usha, shared a snap of the pair attending the opening ceremony on Instagram alongside the caption: "What a thrilling start to the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan! Go Team USA - we’re rooting for you!" Comically, the comment section of the post was filled with wisecracks from social media users about her and her husband being booed.

A post shared by Second Lady Usha Vance (@slotus)

One read: "Could you repeat that? I couldn’t hear over the boos." Another laughed: "The crowd knew the assignment." And a third added: "Didn’t y'all get booed?"

3 Doors Down lead singer Brad Arnold dies aged 47 as band and family release statement

Brad Arnold, the lead singer of 3 Doors Down, has died aged 47.

The founding member of the rock band was surrounded by his loved ones, including wife Jennifer when he died. The band said in a statement released on Saturday: "Brad helped redefine mainstream rock music, blending post-grunge accessibility with emotionally direct songwriting and lyrical themes that resonated with everyday listeners.

"His music reverberated far beyond the stage, creating moments of connection, joy, faith, and shared experiences that will live on long after the stages he performed on." The statement continued: "Those closest to him will remember not only his talent, but his warmth, humility, faith, and deep love for his family and friends."

A statement posted on 3 Doors Down's social media stated Arnold died 'peacefully' in his sleep after a 'courageous battle with cancer'.

The statement continued: "He was a devoted husband to Jennifer, and his kindness, humor, and generosity touched everyone fortunate enough to know him. Those closest to him will remember not only his talent, but his warmth, humility, faith, and deep love for his family and friends.

"The family is deeply grateful for the outpouring of love and support during this difficult time and kindly asks that their privacy be respected. "He will be deeply missed and forever remembered." The Kryptonite hitmaker shared in May last year he'd been diagnosed with kidney cancer in an emotional video posted to Instagram.

"I'd been sick a couple of weeks ago and went to the hospital and got checked out," he said at the time. "I actually got the diagnosis that I have a clear cell renal carcinoma that has metastasized into my lung... and that’s stage four, and that's not real good."

The devastating diagnosis lead to 3 Doors Down cancelling their upcoming gigs. Arnold concluded the video: “I'd love for you to lift me up in your prayers every chance you get," adding: "I think it’s time for me to go listen to ‘It’s Not My Time’ a little bit, right?" Fans of the band will know that's a reference to the classic track that's all about resilience.

Arnold founded 3 Doors Down alongside pals Todd Harrell on bass and lead guitarist Matt Roberts. The statement added: "As a founding member, vocalist, and original drummer of 3 Doors Down, Brad helped redefine mainstream rock music, blending post-grunge accessibility with emotionally direct songwriting and lyrical themes that resonated with everyday listeners."

IOC Hit Out With Strong Statement After Fans Defied Orders to Boo JD Vance

A spokesperson has provided the International Olympic Committee’s (IOC) stance towards fans booing US Vice President JD Vance during the Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony at the San Siro on Friday (February 6).

On Friday, the eyes of the sporting world turned to Milan, Italy, as Andrea Bocelli and Mariah Carey performed during the opening ceremony for the Milan-Cortina Winter Games. During the 2026 Games, 92 nations will take part, including the US, whose delegation was fronted by Vice President Vance.

Cam Newton builds his perfect NFL quarterback Vance was pictured at the opening ceremony and greeted by a chorus of boos inside the stadium when he was caught on camera. This came after thousands of Anti-ICE protesters gathered in Milan to oppose the US, despite President Donald Trump not being in attendance at the Games.

Ahead of the opening ceremony, IOC President Kirsty Coventry was pressed on Vance’s presence and whether she expected Team USA to receive a negative reception during the games.

“I hope that the opening ceremony is seen by everyone as an opportunity to be respectful of each other,” she said. But it appeared that not everyone got the memo based on the boos received by Vance and the American delegation on Friday.

The IOC has since responded with spokesperson Mark Adams addressing the incident during a press conference on Saturday (February 7). "What I would say from the IOC point of view is with the next Games coming up in Los Angeles, we are super happy that the US administration is so engaged with the Games here and going forward,” Adams said.

“That's a great thing for the Olympic movement. We are largely a sports organisation, and seeing the US team cheered as they were by the audience, fair play, that was fantastic, so very happy. "In general, at sporting events we like to see fair play, but in terms of having a good relationship with the administration, that's good news for us."

Mark Adams provided the IOC's stance (Credit:Getty)

The IOC also appealed for sporting conduct from all attendees when asked about the booing of Israeli athletes. "In terms of the athletes and the teams, whatever background, whatever country they're from, I don't think we like to see booing, we want to see sportsperson-like behaviour from everyone,” Adams continued.

“It's important that we support our athletes. "The whole idea, or one of the ideas of the Olympic Movement, is that the athletes shouldn't be punished for whatever their governments have done, and I think that's really important, that we see the athletes and athletic performance for what that says about humanity.

"I know the Italian supporters love their sport. I think when they start seeing amazing performances, whatever nationality, they will cheer those performances."

Khloé Kardashian asked brother Rob for his sperm during bizarre moment

Fans of the Kardashian-Jenner family will no doubt know all about just how bizarre they can be. Over the years, reality TV viewers have been treated to very intimate moments of the famous family's lives, and it's clear that some moments are definitely more relatable than others.

Back in 2024, the likes of Rob Kardashian, the youngest of the four Kardashian siblings, made a rare appearance on The Kardashians. In the episode, Hulu viewers watched as he and his older sister, Khloé, spoke on the phone about sperm donations of all things.

Such an exchange happened after Khloé's long-time friend, Malika Haqq, opened up about wanting to possibly have more children as a single mum - something that prompted the Good America founder to bring up the fact that her and Rob had 'already slept together' and that her brother is a 'good catch'.

It didn't take long before Khloé rang Rob up on the phone and asked him then and there if he would be keen on donating his sperm to Malika to help facilitate her family expansion.

She began the request, stating: "Real serious question though, like bible serious.

"Malika wants to have another kid, and she was going to go to a sperm bank to get sperm, but I just said, ‘Why not get it from you?'" Understandably, Rob, who shares a daughter named Dream Renée, whom he shares with his ex-fiancée rapper Blac Chyna, was quite taken aback by the request.

"I can’t [f*ck] anymore," he eventually replied, as Malika asked: "Is it broke?"

Coming to the rescue, Khloé then piped up: "Rob, you don’t have to. You just put it in a cup."

Despite his sister's suggestion, Rob reiterated his claim that he 'can’t [f*ck] anymore' before asking Khloé: "What don’t you get?" Clearly not fazed by his response, Khloé, who shares two children, daughter True and son Tatum, with her ex-partner, NBA player Tristan Thompson, shot back: "OK, well, we have time to prepare her womb, so you have time to prepare your penis.

Malika has one child, a son named Ace Flores, who was born in 2020, with her ex-boyfriend, rapper O.T Genasis (Instagram/@malika)

"So, you just simmer on this conversation, OK?" Once again, Rob understandably protested, and Khloé wound down the bizarre conversation, acknowledging: "OK, I love you, this is weirder than I thought."

Khloé then offered viewers a confessional debrief, saying: "My brother is just … like he’s just disgusting, and we can’t ever just talk normal. But I don’t think there’s a problem."

Donald Trump accused of 'pooing' himself in recent meeting - here's the truth behind viral rumours

There's a rumour going around that Donald Trump 'pooped' himself during a recent meeting - yes, really.

The American President, 79, has been flooded with accusations that he... ahem, had a little accident while speaking to reporters last week, after a video taken during a press conference has gone viral online.

Now, while there's, of course, nothing proving this happened whatsoever, the internet has done what it does best and ran away with the idea after someone suggested it. The quick dismissal of people from the room paired with a few sour faces behind Trump is what really sparked the whispers.

The video in question was taken during a White House press conference last week (29 January), which saw the Republican sign an executive order aimed at addiction recovery efforts. As we say, in the video, Trump seemingly puts an abrupt end to the political meeting and signals for reporters to leave the room.

After catching light of the clip, people rushed to social media to share their reactions, with many absolutely convinced that Trump suffered a seriously awkward bowel blunder, claiming they heard him ‘sh*rt’, convinced it was the reason why everybody left with such haste.

One X user penned: “I know there's a lot going on right now competing for our attention, but I need you all to see that Trump sh*rted himself on live TV so loud you can hear it and the aides had to rush all the press out of the room.” Another declared: “So yeah... Donald Trump, on live TV, in front of journalists, at the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office, sh*t himself, and you can hear it.

Watch the lady in the green jacket and RFK Jr next to her.” “Donald Trump pooped himself live on TV!” claimed an additional X user. A fourth added: "Reporters rushed out of the room because Trump s*** his pants. lol.

Lady in green tasted it." Ew. While a fifth claimed: So yeah... Donald Trump, on live TV, in front of journalists, at the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office, sh** himself, and you can hear it. Watch the lady in the green jacket and RFK Jr next to her." And someone else joked: "The way they all had smiles plastered on their faces trying desperately to look like nothing has happened is hilarious."

While the prospect of a world leader ‘pooing himself’ in front of the whole world may be a funny prospect to some, it didn’t actually happen. White House spokesman Steven Cheung has confirmed that the rumour making its rounds all across the internet was simply ‘not true’.

Fact-checking site Snopes reports that the video was ‘authentic and showed no signs of digital manipulation or content generated by artificial intelligence’. However, the outlet adds ‘there was no evidence to support the claim that Trump pooped himself during the meeting’. So there you have it, mystery solved.

Justin Bieber’s Grammys red carpet body language explained by expert as ‘blunt’ remark to Hailey revealed

An expert has lifted the lid on Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey's body language during their appearance at the Grammys.

The Canadian singer, 31, and Rhode businesswoman, 29, looked like the perfect celebrity 'it' couple as they stormed the red carpet at the annual music awards in Los Angeles on Sunday (1 Febraury). Hailey donned a strapless black dress from Alaïa that boasted sheer cutouts on the skirt and thighs, while her hubby sported a matching oversized black suit.

On the red carpet, the couple posed and linked arms, with Justin wrapping his arm around his wife as they faced the cameras, before heading inside to watch the ceremony and perform his song 'YUKON'. As we say, a body language expert has weighed in on the famous duo's latest appearance at the Grammys, pointing out that they have 'no real desire to perform for the cameras' and gave a 'high-impact look and a lesson in A-list cool'.

Body language expert Judi James told the Daily Mail that Hailey and Justin's 'form of silent communication on the red carpet is sparse and unusual'. She explained: "Their tactile behaviour increased as they went from spot to spot. At the start, they posed without touching and there was only one moment of touch between them when Hailey bent to straighten her hem and held onto his bicep briefly for balance."

"By the second pose she had linked her hand into his arm, and they were holding hands later on, but they seem not to be using eye contact at all." The expert said both parties 'looked too cool to smile' but Justin did at one point 'hike his mouth upward to suggest a desire to be seen as more friendly."

However, James believes the celebrity couple weren't 'performing' for the audience or using 'power-couple cheese'. She revealed: "The lack of any show-pony rituals like kissing or draping suggests no real desire to perform for the cameras emotionally apart from to look both together and cool."

Later adding: "Following what have at times looked like his "wilderness" years when his signature look has been baggy casuals and a head-bowed set of aversion signals towards the cameras, Justin arrived on the red carpet with Hailey showing strong signs of repair in terms of confidence and style.

"The couple looked elegant here, and although Justin did at first follow Hailey out with his head slightly bowed, he moved on to adopt a pose that made him look like the one in control of the moment, with his legs splayed in a pose of alpha confidence and his hands in his trouser pocket."

It comes just after lip reader Nicola Hickling spoke to The Mirror about Hailey and Justin's red carpet interactions, alleging that he the latter told his wife: "Don’t grab me." The report comment took place after Hailey reached out for Bieber's arm while posing for papparrazi, prompting him to shake her off before walking away.

Following the remark, the duo then stepped away from each other and posed for photos separately. After some time, the model moved closer to her hubby and they held hands before continuing down the red carpet. Featured Image Credit: Brianna Bryson/WireImage
