,Abraham Isaac Quintanilla Jr., the father of the late Tejano music star Selena, has died. He was 86. “It’s with a heavy heart to let you guys know that my Dad passed away today,” his son, Abraham Quintanilla III, wrote in an Instagram post on Saturday. The cause of death is not immediately available. There is no suspicion of foul play, the Nueces County Medical Examiner told TMZ. But they could not confirm the date of his death. The Quintanilla family patriarch was a singer, songwriter, and record producer. He created the band Selena y Los Dinos and managed Selena’s career. “I was raised in the streets when I was young so I’m always suspicious of everything. My kids were not raised that way because they were under my wing and I protected them,” he told the New York Daily News in 2015. “I used to worry about Selena being so trusting.” Selena was shot and killed in 1995 by Yolanda Saldívar, who is serving a life sentence for her murder. Quintanilla is also survived by his wife, Marcella Quintanilla, and their daughter, Suzette Quintanilla.

White Castle has recalled over 1,000 cases of its Original Sliders, according to an announcement from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The recall of 1,021 cases of its 4-count cartons was due to some containing Jalapeño Cheese Sliders with undeclared milk and soy, the FDA said. The allergens that pose a risk to those with milk and soy allergies were not listed on the Original Jalapeño carton label. They were shipped nationwide to mostly convenience stores, officials said. “The issue was discovered when a customer notified White Castle that they suffered a non-life-threatening allergic reaction after consuming one of the Jalapeño Cheese Sliders that was incorrectly packaged in the 4-count Original Sliders carton,” the recall on Friday stated. “No other reports of injury or illness have been received to date.” The recalled sliders are marked with UPC# 0-82988-02969-3, and the lot codes are either 9H203521 or 9H203522. Customers who have already purchased them can return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. Customers can also contact White Castle by calling 1-800-843-2728.

Peter Greene, who played Zed in Pulp Fiction, was found dead in his Lower East Side apartment on Friday, his longtime manager, Gregg Edward, confirmed to the New York Post. He was 60. A neighbor told the New York Daily News that he found Greene in his ground-floor apartment after neighbors reported hearing loud Christmas music since Wednesday. A cause of death is not immediately known. The paper reported that a handwritten note was on his apartment door, including the line “I’m still a Westie”—a reference to the Irish-American gang that once operated out of Hell’s Kitchen. The Usual Suspects actor became known to audiences as an onscreen villain. “Truly one of the great actors of our generation. His heart was as big as there was,” Edward said. Greene, who had a starring role in The Mask, was set to appear in a thriller, Mascots, with Mickey Rourke. The film’s writer-director, Kerry Mondragón, broke down in tears when he heard the news, Edward said. Greene had a surgery scheduled to remove a benign tumor, but he was otherwise healthy and fit, his manager said. Greene told Premier magazine that he struggled with addiction in the ’90s. “Bottom line, he was really a good-hearted person and a brilliant, brilliant actor,” said Edward.

Comic legend Jim Carrey has revealed that the costume he wore in 2000’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas was so painful that he nearly quit the movie on day one. “The suit was made of unnervingly itchy yak hair that drove me insane all day long,” Carrey told Vulture for a retrospective on the live-action Dr. Seuss adaptation. “I had 10-inch-long fingers, so I couldn’t scratch myself or touch my face or do anything,” the 63-year-old actor continued. With whole-eye contact lenses like “frisbees” and a silicone mask that left him mouth-breathing for the entire production, Carrey began having “panic attacks” while filming, director Ron Howard revealed. “I would see him lying down on the floor in between setups with a brown paper bag”, Howard said. “He was miserable.” On the first day of filming, it took Oscar-winning makeup artist Rick Baker eight hours to get Carrey ready—a process so painstaking that the star announced his resignation at the end of it. “He was ready to give his $20 million back! I mean, he was sincere,” Howard added. The compromise the crew settled on saw the production hire a CIA consultant who trained special operations agents to resist torture. “I found out that the gentleman that trained me to endure the Grinch also founded SEAL Team Six,” Carrey added.

A wild brawl broke out in a Whole Foods supermarket, leaving shoppers and online commenters stunned. In a clip captured by an eyewitness and posted to social media, two men are seen fighting in the baked goods section of the organic food store while a woman yells at them to stop. The fight took place in the chain’s downtown Los Angeles location, with police saying they were aware an altercation had taken place between two men in their 30s. The video of the incident begins mid-brawl, with no indication as to what started it. As the two men wrestle with each other, they crash into a stack of freshly baked goods, sending pastries spilling across the floor. The witness filming zooms in on the squashed bakery items to capture the carnage. “Happy Holidays From Whole Foods,” the original poster of the video wrote in the caption. “Are the baked goods OK?” one commenter replied. The Daily Beast has reached out to Whole Foods for comment.

An Instagram model who went by the name Mary Magdalene and was known for getting lots of experimental plastic surgeries—including 38J breast implants—has died at 33. Magdalene, whose real name was Denise Ivonne Jarvis Gongora, fell from the ninth-floor balcony of a high-rise condominium in Thailand on Dec. 9. The Mexican-Canadian model gained fame on social media by documenting her extreme plastic surgeries. She was also an artist and an OnlyFans model. The day before her death, Magdalene posted a childhood photo of herself alongside a scene from The Truman Show in which Jim Carrey’s character bows and says, “And in case I don’t see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night” on several of her social media accounts. She also changed one of her Instagram account handles to “MaryMagdaleneDied.” Her brother, Ivan, shared a photo of himself and his sister. “I wish I’d spent more getting to know you,” he wrote on his Instagram Story. “You are so funny and so creative, way more than I’ll ever be. I love you much more than words will ever say. You are my world. I wish things were different. Thank you for everything I love you sis.” The official autopsy report and cause of death have yet to be released.

Hailee Steinfeld and husband Josh Allen are expecting their first child, the actress announced on her Substack on Friday. The couple, who are both 29, were married in May in California. Steinfeld told Variety in October about her marriage thus far to Allen, the Buffalo Bills quarterback. “What we do is so unpredictable, and his job is on such a strict schedule. So it’s actually a blessing—I try to organize my time so I can be where he is,” the Oscar nominee explained. “This time of year, I get to hunker down, slow down, support him and live life. When the offseason rolls around, it’s go-time for me.” Allen said around the same time that his wife made him realize that he could be “more than a football player.” Steinfeld, he added, “is an unbelievable, undeniable rock star in her work, in her life as a person. She’s everything I need in my life.”

Veteran rocker Chrissie Hynde said she “always regretted” making an appearance on the sitcom Friends. The leader of The Pretenders said her famous cameo destroyed her anonymity when taking her children to school. The ’80s star aired out her grievances during a Thursday Q&A with fans for The Guardian. Hynde appeared on Season 2 as a rival musician of Phoebe Buffay, played by Lisa Kudrow. In the 1995 episode, she performed two songs: “Angel of the Morning” by Chip Taylor and Phoebe’s “Smelly Cat,” which the Friends character taught her as the credits rolled. Behind the scenes, Hynde actually helped write the song. “I got to go to LA for a week and see my friend but I didn’t know they’d written a whole part for me,” Hynde said. Then, when the England resident realized the show was “on the cover of every American magazine,” she thought, “‘Oh f---, this is gonna be big.’” She stressed that the cast was “really nice” but ever since her Season 2 appearance, she became much more recognizable. “Until then I could take my kids to school and nobody knew who I was. Afterwards, all the kids were saying: ‘Your mom’s on Friends!’” she said.

A medical examiner ruled the death of a 32-year-old on a rollercoaster at Universal Epic Universe in Orlando was accidental. Kevin Rodriguez Zavala, who used a wheelchair due to his spinal cord atrophy, had blunt-impact injuries after riding the Stardust Racers ride on September 17. He died later at a local hospital. “Because it was determined that no criminal acts occurred in this case, this concludes the Orange County Sheriff’s Office role in this case,” the office wrote in their December 11 report. In the report, his girlfriend, Javiliz Cruz-Robles, said it took several tries to “get the safety bar to secure around Kevin.” The ride operator said they “followed proper procedures.” However, during the ride’s first drop, she said that he “partially came out of his seat and hit his head on the metal bar in front of them,” according to the report. Cruz-Robles said he hit his head several more times, and she was unable to hold him back. She “was crying for help, but due to being in the middle of the ride, no one heard her screaming,” the report said. When the ride finished, he “was stuck ... face down, falling out of his seat, with legs inverted,” wrote Universal paramedic Sebastian Torres in the report.
