Logan Paul has shared behind-the-scenes footage from a valuation on his WWE Championship belt - and the YouTuber wants a cool $100,000 for it. Paul took it into a shop and explained it was originally taken from Rey Mysterio, with the owner immediately asking if he could buy it. He even wanted a photo with the 28-year-old wearing the belt so he could send it to his niece, who jokingly responded asking if he was looking for a girlfriend.

The ex-girlfriend of Friends actor Matthew Perry has claimed things are not “adding up” about his death. Perry’s ex Kayti Edwards is a former model and the step-granddaughter of iconic British actress Julie Andrews. She and Perry reportedly dated in 2006 and in a recent interview, she opened up about the star’s untimely death after the 54-year-old was found unresponsive in a hot tub at his home in Los Angeles on 28 October. Edwards pointed to Perry’s most recent Instagram post before his death, referencing a hot tub, which could suggest he was “not sober” when he died because he “had a thing with water” when he was on drugs. Perry had been very open about his struggle with addiction and, in a BBC Radio 2 interview revealed there were several whole seasons of the show he has no recollection of filming because he was “out of it”. The actor estimated that he’d spent $9 million on sobriety and said in 2021 that he was sober. But, Edwards claimed that “things aren’t adding up” with the circumstances surrounding Perry’s death. Speaking to The Sun, she said: “I know Matthew and I know that he wouldn’t have just drowned. I think he might have taken pills in the week leading up to this.” Initial toxicology reports found there was no meth or fentanyl in Perry’s system at the time of his death and only prescription drugs were found at his home. Edwards added: “He was paranoid and would take them all, so there wasn’t any evidence, and then go out for more when he was ready to.” In his last Instagram post, Perry referred to himself as “Mattman” – a clue that Edwards believes suggests he wasn’t sober. “That Mattman thing was not something he did when he was sober. Mattman would come out when he was not sober and he felt kind of invincible,” Edwards said. “I was around when he was getting high, although I was not getting high with him, and when I would say maybe he should cool it a little bit with the drugs, he would say, ‘No, I’m Mattman.’” Perry’s funeral took place on 8 November and was attended by all of his Friends co-stars who paid tribute to him.

Taylor Swift has hilariously responded to witchcraft jokes after footage from her Argentina gig shows a perfectly timed plane flying over the stadium while she was singing a lyric about a plane. The last several weeks saw fans jokingly accuse the star of sorcery after a performance of her track 'Willow' looked as though she was performing a spell. Now, Swift has turned to X/Twitter writing: "Never beating the sorcery allegations." The clip shows the 33-year-old singing the lyrics from her 2022 track 'Labyrinth': "I thought the plane was going down/How'd you turn it right around." The footage then shows a plane flying over the stadium. Swifties flocked to the post, with one writing: "When you masterminded a little too hard……" "You somehow planned this," another joked, while a third added: "TAYLOR SWIFT WITCH CONFIRMED". "The plane watching you sing a sing about planes," one X user said. One person humoured that the plane was a "paid actor". It comes after Swift shared her first public kiss with NFL player Travis Kelce, which sent fans into a whirlwind. The clip surfaced on social media and showed Swift waving at fans after her Argentina show before spotting her boyfriend in the crowd. She runs over to Kelce, before hugging and kissing him. The crowd then erupts into cheers. Swift has also been present at Kelce's games too, with stats that go to show she is his "good luck charm". Broadcaster CBS shared a graphic titled 'You Belong with TE,' referencing Swift's song 'You Belong With Me'. It suggested that Kelce averaged 99 receiving yards per game, with it bumping up to 108 following Sunday's game. It then showed a separate post when Swift isn't in attendance at Kelce's game when he's "left to his own devices" – a reference to 'Anti-Hero' – with just 46.5 yards per game.

Actor Noah Schnapp has been seen promoting 'Hamas is Isis' and 'Zionism is sexy' stickers. Schnapp, who is Jewish, posted a statement to Instagram back in October saying he was "afraid" after the attacks by Hamas. Writing "you either stand with Israel or you stand with terrorism". On October 7 Hamas carried out an attack where they entered Israeli territory from the Gaza Strip, killing more than 1,400 people. Since then Israel have launched out a counter military campaign, with Palestinian officials saying more than 10,000 people have been killed in Gaza. As a result, waves of 'Free Palestine' marches have occurred worldwide. Zionism is defined by Cambridge Dictionary as "a political movement that had as its original aim the creation of a country for Jewish people, and that now supports the state of Israel". Schnapp was tagged in what appears to be an Instagram story whilst he and his friends hold up the stickers smiling and laughing in a restaurant. Many on Twitter/X have been sharing the video with their views. With some saying his blatant sharing of views contradicts with his claim of being afraid. Others compared Palestinian-American model Bella Hadid losing jobs for supporting Palestine whilst Schnapp and other Israel supporters such as Amy Schumer, do not. Many also called on the boycotting of season 5 of Stranger Things, the show where Schnapp made his name: Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

A video of Nia Renee Hill, actor, producer, and wife of comedian Bill Burr, has gone viral after many viewers believed she was flipping off former president Donald Trump. But was she actually aiming the gesture at Trump? During a UFC event at Madison Square Gardens, Trump arrived just before the featherweight fight between Diego Lopes and Pat Sabanti. As the former President walks through the seats, Hill can be seen sticking both her middle fingers up. Many believe Hill is directing the gesture at Trump, however she doesn't seem to be looking at the direction of the 77-year-old, rather looking into the cameras. Burr and his wife have both been critical of Trump and other Republicans, such as presidential hopeful Ron DeSantis. Hill hasn't spoken on the now viral clip, so there's uncertainty on whether or not the middle finger was aimed at Trump. Regardless, it has social media pretty divided. Trump supporters were unsurprisingly critical of Hill's gesture that they believed to be aimed at the former President. One Twitter/X user called Hill "disgusting": Whilst another called her "nasty": But critics of Trump called his supporters "hypocrites" for calling Hill names whilst "put[ting] f*ck Biden flags up for kids to read." And many seemed to love Hill's supposed message for Trump: The rest of the UFC crowd, however, seemed happy with Trump's appearance as he entered the arena alongside his son, Donald Jr., Kid Rock, and Tucker Carlson. Despite the ongoing fraud trial regarding The Trump Organisation, he seemed to be in high spirits. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker welcomed their first baby together after the birth of their son on 4 November. 44-year-old Kardashian gave birth in Los Angeles and reportedly has a strict “invite-only” policy in place for people wanting to meet her newborn. Since his arrival, Blink 182 drummer Barker has shared clips from the hospital on his TikTok, revealing that he was practising drumming along to the baby’s heartbeat. Barker shared a 1 minute and 13-second long video on TikTok, captioned, “Practicing to my babies heartbeat”. In the video, he played on a snare drum practice pad next to Kourtney while in the background, his baby’s heartbeat could be heard coming from a nearby monitor. The clip has been viewed over 990,000 times and in the comments, people were baffled by his decision to bring drumming equipment to a medical facility and were equally in awe of Kardashian’s patience. @travisbarker Practicing to my babies heartbeat ? One person commented: “He had to BRING that to the doctor’s office.” Another wrote: “I love Travis, but this would seriously test my patience.” “She’s a better woman than me,” someone else added. One TikToker added: “This is too much.” Fortunately for Barker, it appeared Kardashian herself was filming the clip, so she can’t have minded too much. The birth of the couple’s baby boy came days after Barker revealed in a podcast that his name was going to be “Rocky”. Speaking on the One Life One Chance podcast, the drummer was talking about upcoming work when he let slip: “There's a benefit for Hawaii that we were going to do, but it’s the week that Rocky’s due.” How to join the indy100's free WhatsApp channel Sign up to our free indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

JLS's Aston Merrygold is known for his famous backflip move when performing on stage with his bandmates, but fans were reminded how dangerous the stunt can be when it went wrong and he took a tumble recently. While on stage at Sheffield's Utilita Arena for the band's final show of their 2023 tour, Merrygold could be seen with his fellow bandmates, Marvin Humes, JB Gill and Ortisé Williams as he stood on an extra step to gain some height and momentum for the signature move. However, he appeared to misjudge the flip as he instead slipped causing him to fall and land on his back. Though proving his professionalism, Merrygold immediately styled it out with a backwards floor roll and got up to join his bandmates again to continue the choreography as the band sang their song 'Hottest Girl in the World'. Since then, Merrygold has been getting roasted on social media with people dubbing him as "Aston Merryfold" and "Aston Merryold" while fans have praised how he recovered like a pro but were concerned about whether he was hurt from the tumble. One person wrote: "In 15 years, I have never seen him fall over." "He could have really damaged his spine - hope he’s ok," another person said. Someone else added: "The way he just got up and continued absolute pro, I'd of been sitting there thinking what just happened, could have been so much worse." "Mistakes/accidents happen sometimes it’s normal!!! He did well to continue, I would have died inside/ walked off he’s amazing. Hope he’s ok," a fourth person commented. @sabs1951 Aston Merrygold back flip fail at convert. Aston falls on stage #fyp #foryou #mrslegge #sabs1951 #mmmilyc #jls #concert #fall #fail #follow #astonmerrygold #viralvideo #backflip #omg #pov Well, it appears Merrygold is feeling okay after his fall as he has since taken to TikTok to joke about the failed flip. The on-screen text read "Them: 'Aston, my friend said you fell last night'," as the JLS band member mimed the following audio from the 2015 film Legend. "Right listen, when you see him next, you tell him from me... F**k Charlie, f**k his brother, yeah. "And f**k that fat Georgie Cornell that hangs out with him. F**k your face. And f**k the f**king lot of you as well, what you think of that, eh?" In the caption, Merrygold added: "Their [sic] always here for the down FALL. Ast - 843, 274. Backflip - 1." @astonmerrygold Their always here for the down FALL ?? Ast - 843,274 backflip - 1 In the comments section, fans applauded Merrygold for jesting about the failed stunt and also asked how's feeling after hitting the deck.

Someone else added: "Taking the heat off JB for the Merry Christmas memes."backflip "This is the best comeback," a fourth person replied.

Taylor Swift fans were sent into overdrive after a clip surfaced online of the star kissing Travis Kelce. The new footage shows Swift waving at fans after her Argentina show before spotting her boyfriend in the crowd. She runs over to the NFL player, before hugging and kissing him. The crowd then erupts into cheers. The wholesome clip was soon shared to X/Twitter, with one writing: "The way she ran into his arms, you can tell she’s really in love." Another added: "She looks really happy, love that for her!" Meanwhile, one fan tweeted: "All of Taylor’s ex crying rn cause she’s never been this publicly in love with any of them before." Swift has been known to show her support at Kelce's games, too – and stats suggest she could very well be his lucky charm. During the Kansas City Chiefs' win over the Los Angeles Chargers last month, the broadcaster CBS shared a graphic titled 'You belong with TE,' referencing Swift's song 'You Belong With Me'. It then suggested that Kelce averaged 99 receiving yards per game, with it bumping up to 108 following Sunday's game. They then showed a separate post when Swift isn't in attendance at Kelce's game when he's "left to his own devices" – a reference to 'Anti-Hero' – with just 46.5 yards per game. It didn't take long for fans to catch onto the tongue-in-cheek remarks, with one writing: "Safe to say Taylor and Travis belong together." Another wrote: "The entire graphic, compliments to whoever cooked it up."
