Barbara Eden, 95, was forced to drop out of an appearance at the Cinecon Classic Film Festival on Saturday due to a “sudden illness.” The titular heroine of the camp 1960s fantasy comedy I Dream of Jeannie, Eden was scheduled to be honored with the Cinecon Legacy Award at a screening the 1961 classic All Hands on Deck, in which she also starred. In an announcement posted to the festival’s Facebook page, organizers said Eden was “deeply regretful that she had to cancel at the last minute, as she had been very much looking forward to seeing everyone and celebrating with us.” The festival organizers said Eden’s co-star Pat Boone would accept the award in her place. Eden has appeared in dozens of movies, TV shows and stage productions over her career. She also penned a best-selling memoir that was published in 2011. Eden turned 95 in August. Fans posting in response to the festival’s announcement wished her a speedy recovery.

A trip from hell unfolded for passengers on an American Airlines flight on Thursday, with an allegedly belligerent passenger needing to be duct-taped to his seat. A picture of Arthur Lundeen, 67, of Arizona, duct-taped to his seat has gone viral after it was posted on Instagram by fellow passenger Richard Olenick and captioned: “So this was my night tonight.” Lundeen was allegedly drunk and became belligerent, yelling at a man seated next to him. When a flight attendant tried to calm down the situation, Lundeen allegedly began screaming obscenities at him. Olenick says he was sitting two rows ahead of Lundeen in first class. He says that he went to help restrain Lundeen after he began to physically assault the passenger next to him, the flight attendant, and a woman who had tried to defuse the situation. In the picture, there is blood on Lundeen’s arms, and his entire torso and face are restrained. The plane, which took off from Dallas en route to Newark, New Jersey, was forced to divert to Baltimore, where Maryland cops took Lundeen into custody.

Donald Trump’s top negotiators began their meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Saturday by presenting him with a commemorative coin, according to the Kremlin’s press pool. The “Peace Through Strength” coin, photographed on a table at the start of negotiations, featured Steve Witkoff’s name on the back. In a brief clip released by state-controlled media, Putin, 73, was shown greeting Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner before taking a seat and asking that they give Trump his warm regards. Witkoff, who has reportedly been “scared” to travel to Kyiv against Moscow’s wishes, was also filmed gushing over the Russian leader, telling him that among all the “incredible memories” he will have once he retires, his talks with Putin “will be right at the top of it all.” The real estate investor-turned-special envoy is said to have grown enamored with Putin throughout his many meetings in Moscow, even having Putin sign a paper for him that he later had framed, according to Regime Change by The New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan. Kushner and Witkoff are scheduled to travel to Kyiv on Sunday to meet with Ukrainian leaders as part of peace talks–their first time visiting the Ukrainian capital after numerous trips to Moscow.

Amber Eggers of the television show Love After Lockup died Thursday night in an Atlanta hospital. She was 41. Eggers’ mother, Monica Eggers, told TMZ that she had been admitted a few days earlier and ultimately died from acute liver failure. Eggers starred in season two of the We TV show in 2019, after serving a four-year sentence for drug trafficking. She was briefly engaged, but the wedding was called off when she was released. “We are deeply saddened by the passing of Amber Eggers, an original and unforgettable member of the Love After Lockup family,” We TV told Page Six in a statement. “She was a bright light, who shared her life story with courage and authenticity, and we are honored to have been a part of her journey over several years. Our hearts are with her family and friends who held her close.” Eggers also appeared in Life After Lockup, the spin-off.

You don’t have to have a backyard villa to elevate your backyard space with Hanso Home’s new-and-improved pergola. Although the pergola does not come assembled (you can also hire their team to assemble it for you for an additional fee), it is easy to self-assemble with two people in two to four hours, which is one of the reasons that it’s a top choice for U.S. renovation contractors—along with the fact that adding a premium pergola to your yard can increase your home’s value by an average of $27,000, according to the brand. Best of all, the Fifth-Generation Hanso Horizon Smart Pergola is built to last for at least 30 years and is backed by a ten-year warranty.

A Republican running for the Missouri state House has been arrested after he tried to have cocaine planted on his opponent, prosecutors allege in a news release. Thomas Christopher Ross, 37, has been charged with a count of conspiring to distribute a controlled substance after the man he allegedly tasked with planting the drugs, his former campaign manager, called police and foiled the plot, authorities say. The alleged scheme targeted local realtor Louise Secker, a fellow Republican running for the same seat. The ex-campaign manager claims he was instructed to plant the cocaine, as well as Adderall, in Secker’s car or purse. The chairman of the Missouri Republican Party, Peter Kinder, said in a statement that Ross should drop out of the race due to these “serious and deeply troubling” charges. Ross beat Secker by less than three dozen votes last month to become the Republican candidate in the race to represent Missouri’s 161st District, which includes Joplin and surrounding areas.

United Airlines passengers were only 25 minutes into their flight from Los Angeles to Newark, New Jersey, when the plane’s crew reported a technical issue and turned the plane around on Thursday. “United flight 1855 safely returned to Los Angeles to address a mechanical issue,” the airline said in a statement. “Customers deplaned normally at the gate, and we’ve arranged for a new aircraft to take them to their destination later today.” The complication was reportedly a “hydraulic maintenance issue,” but United has not disclosed the details. The pilot landed the plane safely without any more issues about an hour after the first departure, with no passenger or crew injuries. The passengers had a rough start to their holiday weekend, however—a more than five-hour delay.

A Danish man has uncovered the largest collection of Viking Age silver while doing gardening work at his home. The man, from the northern Danish municipality of Rebild, made the shocking discovery while cutting grass and removing stones in preparation for building a new terrace. The Dane uncovered around 700 pieces of buried treasure, including silver bars, dozens of coins, and a small Thor’s hammer. The hoard weighed around 18.5 kilos, three times heavier than the record discovery of Viking Age silver in Denmark, according to the Nordjyske Museer [North Jutland Museums]. “It should have just been a few hours of hard gardening work removing stubborn grass, stones and gravel for a new tiled terrace, but it turned out to be the biggest surprise of my life,” said the man, who wishes to remain anonymous. Torben Sarauw, cultural heritage manager at Nordjyske Museer, said the silver was likely used as payment, and the discovery was akin to “finding a safe” from the Viking Age.

Former All That star Christy Knowings’ cause of death has been confirmed. The former Nickelodeon actress died on August 11, aged 46, with a family member saying at the time that she died after being taken off life support, citing an asthma attack that left her with brain damage. People magazine reported that a death certificate states Knowings died from cardiac arrest, four days after she was hospitalized. The document lists acute hypoxic respiratory failure and status asthmaticus as conditions leading to her death, with asthma listed as the underlying cause. Tragically, Knowings is the second All That cast member to die this year. Kianna Underwood, 33, was killed in a hit-and-run vehicle collision in Brooklyn in January. Knowings’ CV also includes an appearance in Rosie O’Donnell’s sketch-comedy special on Nickelodeon, And Now This, as well as Sesame Street. Knowings joined All That in 1997. The comedy also helped launch the careers of Nick Cannon, Jamie-Lynn Spears and Amanda Bynes. A GoFundMe page was launched to raise money on her parents’ behalf “to help care for Christy’s mortuary and funeral expenses.” It has now raised over $12,000, exceeding its initial goal of $10,000. The page called Knowings “a compassionate, bright light whose warmth, kindness, and humor touched every life she encountered.”

A mistrial has been declared in the prosecution of Lindsay Clancy, the Massachusetts mother who has admitted to strangling three of her children to death. A 12-person jury made up of three men and nine women alerted Judge William Sullivan via a note on Friday that, “with a heavy heart,” they were not able to agree on a verdict. The jury appeared to be split 11 to one, according to The New York Times. Clancy was charged with the murder of her children, 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 8-month-old Callan, after she admitted to killing them in 2023. Her defense argued she was not of sound mind due to severe postpartum psychosis. Clancy’s lawyer, Kevin Reddington, pleaded with Sullivan to remove or question an apparent holdout juror, but his request was denied. Clancy, 36, is expected to remain institutionalized while prosecutors consider whether to retry the case.

A baby corn snake was found in the middle of the bread aisle of a small-town English supermarket, according to a local animal education organization. Pet Encounter said the baby snake, which is now in their care after it was discovered last month, may be part of a growing trend of animal abandonments. The team has already rescued 21 snakes this year alone, while it only had to save about 14 in the whole of last year. Employee Ben Nicholson believes the cost-of-living crisis is to blame. “There’s the equipment, heat mats, heat bulbs—they all have a cost,” Nicholson said. “People are looking to cut down on their energy use, and these animals can be a significant factor.” Pop culture trends often cause influxes of exotic animal rescue calls to Pet Encounter. Right now, they’re prepping aviaries for “Harry Potter Season” in England—an obvious time to buy an owl.
