Actor Sydney Sweeney has denied speculation that she had plastic surgery on her breasts while hooked up to a lie detector for Vanity Fair. “There’s been a question on everybody’s minds recently, and I just have to ask, are your boobs real?” Amanda Seyfried, Sweeney’s co-star in their upcoming film Housemaid, asked during the lie detector segment. “Yes,” the Euphoria star, 28, answered amid laughs. “I’ve never gotten any work done anywhere.” The supervisor for the lie detector test confirmed that Sweeney’s response was “truthful.” It was the second time this week that Sweeney addressed plastic surgery rumors, previously telling Allure that she has never had work done. “I am so scared of needles, you have no idea,” Sweeney told the outlet. In October, she called out theories that she had had plastic surgery, claiming people were comparing her look now to when she was 12 years old. “Of course I’m going to look different,” she told Variety. “I have makeup on now, and I’m 15 years older.” She also told the outlet that she plans to “age gracefully.”
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.

Passengers Endure 9-Hour Transatlantic U-Turn Flight to End Up Where They Started
Passengers on a British Airways flight spent five hours crossing the Atlantic, getting almost within sight of Canadian territory, only to turn back and fly five hours back to the starting point, thousands of miles from the intended Mexico destination, according to Business Insider. Flight 243 from London Heathrow Airport left at 1:22 p.m. on Dec.10 with an intended destination of Mexico City, about 11 hours and 5,500 miles later. So far, BA has blamed a “technical issue” for the U-turn without giving passengers details of why they found themselves back in wintry London, Business Insider reported. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner landed at London Heathrow—British Airways’ main hub—just after 10 p.m. “The flight landed safely, and customers disembarked normally following reports of a technical issue with the aircraft,” the airline told Business Insider in a statement. When BA Flight 243 turned around, its closest airport was Iqaluit in northern Canada, less than 300 miles away. Returning to Heathrow could make it easier to rebook passengers on alternative flights. British Airways did not immediately respond to the Beast’s request for comment.
My 600-Lb. Life star Pauline Potter has died after months of mounting medical complications following a car accident earlier this year. Her son, Dillon Potter, announced her death in a YouTube video, saying she died on Thanksgiving. Dillon said the pair was involved in a highway crash nearly a year ago while driving in the early morning. He was asleep in the passenger seat when his mother encountered a broken-down truck blocking the road. Though she nearly avoided impact, their car clipped the truck and spun out at roughly 50 mph, he said. In the months that followed, Dillon said his mother dealt with persistent health problems. By July, she was hospitalized after doctors discovered a blockage in her esophagus that left her unable to keep food down. She was later admitted to the ICU after contracting COVID and suffered respiratory failure weeks later. She eventually entered hospice care and died en route to her sister’s house for Thanksgiving. Potter famously lost more than 500 pounds on the TLC series. Dillon said she was deemed at fault in the crash, but he is consulting an attorney as the family grieves.

Amazon has pulled its AI-powered recap for Fallout’s first season ahead of the show’s second season airing, reported IGN. Prime Video started testing generative AI recaps for some of the streaming service’s shows. These recaps include an AI-generated voiceover narrating these clips for viewers. Fans of Fallout were quick to point out that the narration was full of errors. For example, Amazon’s AI misinterpreted Walton Goggins’ character’s flashback scenes as set in 1950s America. In actuality, these scenes took place in a futuristic 2077. According to The Verge, Amazon has now removed these recaps completely. Fallout, based on a video game from Bethesda Game Studios, was well-received for its production and for how closely it stuck to its source material. Goggins leads the cast, which also includes Yellowjackets’ Ella Purnell, Kyle MacLachlan, Aaron Moten, and Moises Arias. The show’s second season is coming to Prime Video on Dec. 17th.
At least 13 people in Japan have now been killed by bears this year. Marcos del Mazo/Marcos Del Mazo via Getty Images
A hiker’s GPS watch has revealed chilling details about a fatal bear attack in northern Japan back in August, including that the animal returned to the victim’s body the day after killing him. The deadly mauling came amid a rise in bear attacks, with 13 people now killed nationwide this year and more than 200 injured, along with increased sightings near homes, schools, and supermarkets. According to the Asahi Shimbun newspaper, the hiker’s watch—which had logged his location and heart rate—was recovered after he disappeared while hiking in Hokkaido. The device showed his route suddenly veering off the trail before looping repeatedly in thick brush. Data indicated his heart stopped 100 to 130 yards from the path. The watch remained overnight at that spot, then moved several hundred yards the next morning, suggesting the bear dragged his body. Authorities later spotted a brown bear with two cubs carrying the remains. All three animals were killed. A mound of earth believed to have been created by the bear was found nearby, along with traces of the victim. His parents were asked to identify only his face because of extensive injuries. Separately, a ski resort in Nagano reported bear sightings, and a snowboarder said a bear “chased him” on the slope in a video posted online.

A law professor is suing Boeing for $40 million, claiming that his brain injury was caused by noxious fumes on one of its planes, according to the Wall Street Journal. Jonathan Harris alleges he was on board a Delta Air Lines 737 from Atlanta, Ga., to Los Angeles, Calif., in August last year when he was exposed to a smell reminiscent of old socks. Passengers detected it after the plane touched down, but as they waited 45 minutes for a gate to become available, the WSJ reports, the situation got worse. Harris, a lecturer at Loyola Law School at the time, and other passengers said they were having trouble breathing and later vomited. The Wall Street Journal reports that Harris alleges he has had lasting symptoms, including balance and motor skill issues. His lawyer said the case is the first in which the lead plaintiff is a passenger, although crew members have filed similar fume-related suits. The FAA received a letter from 39 members of Congress in September asking that fume-related incidents be addressed. The industry maintains that such cases are rare.
Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Bronwyn Newport and her husband, Todd Bradley, have separated after being married for nine years. In a statement to People, a representative for Newport confirmed the split. “This was a mutual decision made with care and respect for one another‚” the representative said. “They ask for privacy during this time.” The couple’s relationship struggles have been chronicled during the sixth season of RHSLC, currently airing. In one instance, Newport shared that Bradley allegedly cheated on her. “The real truth is that my relationship is just as hard as everybody else’s in its own ways and has had its very low lows that were very hard for me,” she said. Newport said she forgave him for his alleged infidelity at the time, telling the other stars of the show it was his “fatal flaw.” The couple met while Newport was working in finance in San Francisco, and they married in 2016.

Terrifying Video Shows Huge Gas Explosion Rip Through Houses
An explosion tore through a residential block in California’s Bay Area, destroying several homes and sending multiple people to the hospital after a construction crew reported striking an underground gas line. The blast hit the unincorporated community of Ashland near Hayward, significantly damaging at least three buildings and injuring six people, according to Alameda County fire officials. Footage from a doorbell camera across the street captured a house roof blown skyward before the structure collapsed, while people nearby ran from the debris and rising smoke. “It was like you were watching a war video,” Brittany Maldonado, who provided the footage, told ABC7 News. Deputy Fire Chief Ryan Nishimoto said three of the injured were considered “immediate transports,” with the others classified as “minor.” Their conditions remain unknown. Pacific Gas & Electric spokeswoman Tamar Sarkissian said the company was alerted at 7:35 a.m. that a construction crew unaffiliated with PG&E had “struck an underground gas line.” Crews were sent to isolate the break, she said. “The flow of gas was stopped at 9:25 a.m.,” Sarkissian told reporters, adding the explosion followed about 10 minutes later. She said, “We did not wait two hours to shut the gas off. We were working to isolate the line and to be able to safely turn off the gas.”

A man has been arrested after allegedly attempting to open the door of a U.S.-Hong Kong passenger plane in mid-air, police told Reuters. Authorities in Hong Kong announced that they had taken a 20-year-old male from China into custody after the Cathay Pacific flight landed. The man is alleged to have attempted to open one of the external doors on flight CX811, believed to be an Airbus A350, departing from Boston, Massachusetts, Reuters reports. Cathay confirmed that no one was hurt in the incident and that the plane landed safely after completing its 15-hour journey, Reuters reports. “Our cabin crew immediately attended to the situation, inspected the door to ensure it was securely closed, and reported the incident to the relevant authorities and the police,” Cathay said in a statement to the news agency. “The case has been handed over to the police for investigation. At Cathay, the safety of our customers and crew guides every decision we make.” The identity of the passenger has not been made public.
