Alec Baldwin formally charged with involuntary manslaughter in fatal ‘Rust’ shooting

By

The fatal shooting on the set of the movie Rust which was taking place in Santa Fe, Mexico, claimed the life of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and left another injured. It was actor Alec Baldwin who accidentally killed Hutchins, a wife and a mother of one.

After the accident, Baldwin released a statement. “There are no words to convey my shock and sadness regarding the tragic accident that took the life of Halyna Hutchins, a wife, mother and deeply admired colleague of ours. I’m fully cooperating with the police investigation to address how this tragedy occurred and I am in touch with her husband, offering my support to him and his family. My heart is broken for her husband, their son, and all who knew and loved Halyna.”

LA Times reported that prior to the fatal shot, a group of camera crew workers walked off set because safety protocols weren’t strictly followed. Camera operator Lane Luper was among those who left and was reported saying, “This set was unsafe simply because they didn’t have the wherewithal to follow safety rules that we have in this industry that we’ve been following for decades,” as per Sky News.

Late Hutchins family filed a wrongful death suit which names Baldwin and others who “are responsible for the safety on the set” and “reckless behavior and cost-cutting.”

As reported by Fox News, the lawsuit read: “Halyna Hutchins deserved to live, and the Defendants had the power to prevent her [passing] if they had only held sacrosanct their duty to protect the safety of every individual on a set where firearms were present instead of cutting corners on safety procedures where human lives were at stake, rushing to stay on schedule and ignoring numerous complaints of safety violations.”

Further, it said, “This lawsuit seeks justice for the losses of her survivors and to hold responsible those who caused her tragic [passing].”

The actor’s lawyers asked for any lawsuits to be dismissed claiming the tragedy was a “workplace accident.”

Yet in documents released earlier this week officially detailing the charges, as per the BBC, Baldwin is accused of being “distracted” while talking to family members on his mobile phone during training about how to operate the prop gun to be used on set.

However, on Tuesday, a Santa Fe district attorney announced Alec Baldwin and and armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed would be charged with involuntary manslaughter in the fatal shooting of Halyna Hutchins.

“After a thorough review of the evidence and the laws of the state of New Mexico, I have determined that there is sufficient evidence to file criminal charges against Alec Baldwin and other members of the ‘Rust’ film crew,” Mary Carmack-Altwies said.

“On my watch, no one is above the law, and everyone deserves justice.”

Both Baldwin and Gutierrez-Reed are now formally charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter.

If Baldwin had performed mandatory safety checks with the film’s armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, and not pointed the gun at Hutchins, the “tragedy would not have occurred,” Robert Shilling, a special investigator for the district attorney’s office, wrote in a statement of probable cause filed with the manslaughter charges.

“This reckless deviation from known standards and practice and protocol directly caused the fatal shooting,” he said.

“Baldwin knew the first rule of gun safety is never point a gun at someone you don’t intend on shooting.”

As of assistant director David Halls, he signed a plea agreement and will face six months of probation.

In the months following the shooting, investigators discovered 500 rounds of ammunition, among which blanks, dummies, and what looked like live rounds.

If found guilty, both Baldwin and Gutierrez-Reed could spend up to 18 months in prison. They would also be forced to pay a $5,000 fine.

Their lawyers said they would be fighting the charges at court.

We are so very sorry that a young life was lost in such a manner.

We won’t be seeing any more of Dr. Phil

By
Monica Pop
-

For 21 years, Phil McGraw, or better known as Dr. Phil, has attracted millions of viewers.

Being one of the most famous TV show hosts and someone whose life goal is helping others makes Dr P.hil a one-of-a-kind celebrity.

He started his career when he offered his valuable advice to ordinary people on The Oprah Winfrey Show. In fact, it was Oprah who taught him a lot about what it truly takes to be successful in the world of show business. “I often say I’m the first graduate from Oprah University, and that’s a pretty great place to learn how to do television,” our favorite doctor says.

At the moment, his show is the second most-watched talk show, with an estimated 2 million people tuning in each episode on average.

Unfortunately, many of his fans got worried after the famous doctor released a statement saying this season would be the final of Dr. Phil.

Through the 2023-24 season, networks are expected to continue airing reruns.

“With this show, we have helped thousands of guests and millions of viewers through everything from addiction and marriage to mental wellness and raising children. This has been an incredible chapter of my life and career, but while I’m moving on from daytime, there is so much more I wish to do,” Dr. Phil’s statement read.

The fans, however, can rest assured that the most famous TV doctor isn’t going anywhere. What’s most, it has been reported that he is in talks with CBS and will be focusing his efforts on a ‘strategic primetime partnership’ that will help him engage with a much larger audience.

At this point, not much is known about his new project, but what is revealed is that Dr. Phil would be continue hosting his podcasts, Phil in the Blanks and Mystery & Murder: Analysis by Dr. Phil.

Following the decision to end the famous talk show after over two decades, CBS Media Venture’s Steve LoCascio issued a statement as well. “Phil is a valued partner and member of the CBS/King World family, and while his show may be ending after 21 years, I’m happy to say our relationship is not,” he said.

“Phil changed the daytime landscape as the force behind one of the most popular talk shows ever on daytime TV. We plan to be in the Dr. Phil business with the library for years to come and welcome opportunities to work together in the future,” the statement further read.

Besides being a famous host., Dr. Phil is also a family man who believes the most important thing is life is spending quality time with the members of the family.

“I always tell people to make time for each other. whether it’s a date night or an hour through the day,” the author of a number of best-selling books said. “The stranger that feels, the further you’ve drifted away from what brought the two of you together. You need to remember and focus on why you feel in love with that person, to begin with. If you wake up everyday and ask yourself, ‘What can I do today to make my spouse’s life better?’ It’ll change the course of your [relationship].”

We wish Dr. Phil and his family only the best in the years to come.

While cleaning the beach with his friends, an 11-year-old receives a wonderful surprise – you’ll never guess what!

By

Serina, a Taiwanese student, was having a blast with her friends on Ishigaki island. In order to preserve the memories of that special day, she used a waterproof camera while scuba-diving. The camera also had a protective cover, but at one point, as Serina noticed one of her friends was in need of help following an emergency with the oxygen tank, she somehow dropped her camera.

Once she made sure her friend was safe and sound, Serina tried looking for the camera but it was nowhere to be seen. Of course, she never thought that some day, she would have it back again, but that is exactly what happened.

A group of students were cleaning the beach one day as part of a school project when they found something that resembled a strangely shaped rock. Once they took it in their hands, they realized it was a camera.

The biggest surprise was that the gadget, which was obviously lost at sea and dragged to the shore, was still working. It even had enough battery for them to turn it on and try to figure out who it belonged to.

In order to track the owner down, the teacher told the students to post some of the photos from the camera online. A bunch of shares later, Serina spotted the photographs and she could’t believe her eyes.

She was quick to contact the students and the teacher in order to inform them that the camera belonged to her.

The thing is that in order to get her gadget back, this young woman would need to travel from Japan to Taiwan. That means that the camera was carried by the waves more than 200 kilometers to a safe shore.

Isn’t this amazing?

Died at 75 – She was such a great actress

By

Cindy Williams, the beloved star best known for her portrayal of Shirley Feeney in the ’70s sitcom Laverne & Shirley, passed away aged 75 after a short illness, as reported by her family.

“The passing of our kind, hilarious mother, Cindy Williams, has brought us insurmountable sadness that could never truly be expressed,” the statement issued by her children Zak and Emily Hudson read, per AP. “Knowing and loving her has been our joy and privilege. She was one of a kind, beautiful, generous and possessed a brilliant sense of humor and a glittering spirit that everyone loved.”

Among the rest, Williams had a featured role in George Lucas’ 1973 classic American Graffiti opposite Ron Howard, a role that earned her a BAFTA nomination.

In Laverne & Shirley, the spin-off series of Happy Days, Williams starred opposite Penny Marshall who played Laverne DeFazio. The two played single working women in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in the 1950s, and these roles helped them become household names adored by millions.

Speaking about working together, Williams revealed in a 2013 interview, “We sort of had telepathy. If we walk into a room together and if there’s something unique in the room, we’ll see it at the same time and have the same comment about it. We were always just like that.”

During the eight season, Williams got pregnant with her first child and left the show after an out-of-court settlement with Paramount.

“They had me working on my due date, and they couldn’t deal with it — that I needed time off to have a child,” Cindy told ET. “It just ended up I didn’t do that season of the show.”

She and Marshall appeared together once more in a Sam & Cat episode on Nickelodeon.

Marshall passed away in 2018, and touched Williams deeply.

Williams began her acting career in the early 1970s with guest-starring roles in TV shows such as Barefoot in the Park and Room 222. She was then cast by director George Cukor in 1972’s Travels With My Aunt and started getting bigger roles.

One of this iconic actress’ last TV guest appearances were in a 2004 episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and a 2016 episode of the Matthew Perry/Thomas Lennon reboot Odd Couple.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Cindy Williams’ family during these times of grief. May she rest in peace.

George and Charlotte have a very unusual nickname for their dad William

By

With everything that is going on within the British royal family, especially following the release of Harry’s book Spare in which he didn’t spare anyone, not even William and Kate’s children, the Prince and Princess of Wales make sure that the family feud doesn’t affect Prince George, Prince Charlotte, and their youngest child, Prince Louis.

Among the rest, Harry wrote that he wasn’t involved in George’s life as much as he wished because he wasn’t invited to Kate and William’s home as often besides the fact that they lived quite close to each other.

Further, Harry said that he fears Charlotte and George could experience his fate and “end up” just like him.

“Though William and I have talked about it once or twice, and he has made it very clear to me that his kids are not my responsibility, I still feel a responsibility knowing that out of those three children, at least one will end up like me, the spare,” Harry said in an interview with The Telegraph.

“And that hurts, that worries me.

“I was brought into the world in case something happened to Willy, I was summoned to provide backup, distraction, diversion and, if necessary, a spare part. Kidney, perhaps. Blood transfusion. Speck of bone marrow. This was all made explicitly clear to me from the start of life’s journey and regularly reinforced thereafter.”

The royals didn’t comment on any of Harry’s accusations, but many royal authors slammed him for getting the children involved and speaking about them.

“Harry should lay off Prince William’s children. In fact, he should lay off everybody and button it now,” royal author Ingrid Seward told The Sun. “It is a very dangerous road to go down, to start talking about other people’s children.”

She added: “And what he says Prince William said to him is absolutely right – they are William’s responsibility and not his, so he should keep out of it.

“It is none of Harry’s business. But Harry has become dangerous to his family, and to himself, because he can lob in his little asides whenever he wants.”

William and Kate are doing all in their power to provide their children with a normal childhood, although they do prepare George for the life that awaits him as he would become a King one day. George will most likely begin working full-time as a royal by age 35, if not sooner. So for a future king, it’s crucial to be prepared.

As of now, the three siblings enjoy their childhood. They attend school and have plenty of friends. Besides being royals, they go by ordinary names at school. It has been revealed that George’s classmates call him “PG,” his initials. Otherwise, they are simply known as George Cambridge and Charlotte Cambridge.

They on the other hand, have a special nickname for their father, Prince William.

This doesn’t come as a surprise having in mind that the royals have always used nicknames. Late Queen Elizabeth was called Lilibet by her family because she couldn’t pronounce her name when she was a very young child. Harry was reported to call Kate Middleton ‘Cath,’ and his brother William, ‘Willy.’

As of the nickname his children gave to William, it was revealed by British TV chef Ainsley Harriott that the kids came up with it after listening to a radio interview he had done during which he jokingly spoke about cooking a fish in the bathtub.

“Greg asked, ‘could you cook a fish in the bath?’” Harriott recalled in an interview with The Sun. “I said, ‘yeah, if it’s a little bit of seabass or plaice or something like that.’ You wouldn’t want a thick bit of fish because it wouldn’t poach.

“Anyway, apparently, Prince William and Kate were taking George and Charlotte to school, and they found it hysterical.”

William later appeared on the radio station, saying, “The kids love it. They loved that you were talking about eating fish in the water.”

Harriott later changed his trademark catchphrase, “Why hello there, Jill,” – which had gone viral after he’d shown up to an elderly woman’s house to surprise her on live TV – to “Why hello there, Will. Poachy, poachy, poachy,” when he met William.

George and Charlotte found that hilarious and they now call their dad Poachy.

We believe that’s adorable. What about you?

Camilla was afraid to go out shopping and ‘hid in her house’ when affair with Charles was made public

By
Monica Pop
-

The love between King Charles and his wife Camilla, who is now Queen Consort, dates back to 1972, when they first laid eyes on each other during a polo match.

The two were introduced to each other by a mutual friend, Lucia Santa Cruz, the daughter of the Chilean ambassador. They started dating, but the relationship didn’t last long as Charles left to serve in the Royal Navy. When his duties there came to an end and he returned home, Camilla was already engaged to her now-ex husband Andrew Parker Bowles.

However, they never stopped being close. Even when Charles married Diana, he and Camilla were in touch.

Royal author Penny Junior claimed that Charles was aware he wasn’t in love with his future wife Diana, but it was already too late for him to call off the wedding.

“Charles was not convinced he was doing the right thing in marrying Diana but there was no way out and, bolstered by the hope that things would be different once they were married, he put a brave face on it,” she wrote, as reported by the Mirror.

What’s most, Camilla and Diana knew each other and got along, but then things changed.

“I met [Camilla] very early on. I was introduced to the circle, but I was a threat, I was a very young girl, but I was a threat,” Diana explained in the book Diana: In Her Own Words.

The love affair between Charles and Camilla started in 1986, according to Prince Charles’ authorized biography, as quoted by Town & Country. At the time, Charles was still married to Princess Diana and she eventually became aware that her husband was cheating on her.

Diana even confronted Camilla once, but nothing changed.

Speaking of the troubles in her marriage and the reasons for its failure, Diana told Martin Bashir during a televised interview, “Well, there were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded.”

Charles and Diana separated in 1992 and their divorce was finalized four years later.

Mere months after the separation was formalized, the press leaked a transcript of a conversation between Charles and Camilla. It revealed intimate and sexual exchange between the two.

Before it was published in details, the paper put a headline which read, “Charles’s Secret Bedtime Phone Call.”

The intimate conversation was dubbed “Tampongate” because it included a tampon reference.

Fast forward to this very day, Charles is the King of Britain and Camilla is Queen Consort.

Over the years, the people of Britain learned to love Camilla and her reputation has been growing. The two are now the head of the country and are still happily married but there was a time when Camilla was afraid to leave her home because she was afraid of the backlash of the public following the revelation of her affair.

Speaking to OK Magazine, royal expert Angela Levin, author of the 2022 book Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall: A Royal Survivor, revealed that Camilla had to endure “torrents” of mistreatment from the public as the affair was revealed. She didn’t even go to stores but had her friends running her errands for her.

“It was very difficult for her, as she was portrayed as the most wicked woman in the world. She was constantly called nasty names like ‘rottweiler,’ and it must have come as a huge shock that people were so vile about her,” Levin said.

In order to protect her, it was revealed that Charles paid for Camilla’s security for years, or until 2005 when the two tied the knot. “I don’t think Charles realised how awful it was for her. He was often away on engagements and working hard for the country and Commonwealth, and at the time, Camilla didn’t have protection officers because she wasn’t part of the Royal Family. But when Charles finally realised, he did get protection for her, which he paid for himself,” Levine revealed.

“She still gets nervous about things,” Levin said, adding that Camilla will “probably be anxious” about Charles’ coronation because “she can never be sure how people are going to react towards her.”

“There’s a small but very harsh group of people who still think she’s the wrong woman for him.”

Prince Charles’ coronation is expected to take place on May 6, 2023.

Terrible news about the beloved actor Sylvester Stallone

By

-

With 9 wins and 6 nominations, the fourth film of the popular Rocky franchise, Rocky IV, is one of the best boxing movies there are. Written and directed by actor Sylvester Stallone, who also plays the main character, the movie revolves around Rocky’s desire to revenge the death of his friend Apollo Creed, who will be in a match against Ivan Drago, a Russian boxer who has been scientifically trained, using high tech equipment. Unfortunately, Drago is killed during the fight and Rocky is filled with guilt.

Now, years after the film was released, Stallone revealed a shocking detail about one of the scenes.

Namely, while filming, he was subjected to some significant blows from Dolph Lundgren and had to be taken to the hospital.

Speaking of the film ahead of the release of a new recut version of it, Stallone said, “In the first round, where he knocked me down, that is for real.

“He pulverized me and I did not feel it at that moment but later that night my heart started to swell.”

Further, he revealed, “[Lundgren] had bruised the perio cardio sac, which is when the heart hits the chest – like in a car accident when your chest hits the steering wheel. My blood pressure went up to 260. They thought I was going to be talking to angels.”

Believe it or not, he was admitted to the intensive care unit at St. John’s Hospital in Santa Monica, California. He stayed at the hospital for nine days.

“I knew I was in trouble when I showed up and nuns met you at the ICU,” Stallone said and added that the nuns prayed for him.

The hit to the chest was included in the film because as Stallone said, “How could you possibly rule that out?”

What do you think of the scene?

What Harry and Meghan did at Princess Eugenie’s wedding angered many

By

From the moment the world learned of the romance between Meghan Markle, the former Suits actress and later Duchess of Sussex, and Prince Harry, all eyes have been on them.

Source: Getty

Their relationship started after a mutual friend set them up for a blind date in London. The chemistry was there and soon everyone spoke of their relationship.

Meghan was a divorcee and people doubted the relationship would last or even be approved by the Royals, but just the opposite happened and the two tied the knot in May, 2018. Reports say the wedding ceremony was watched by 1.9 billion people as the world became obsessed with the newlyweds.

Shortly after the wedding, the Sussex Royals had some exciting news the world couldn’t wait to hear; they were expecting. On May 6th, 2019, Archie Mountbatten-Windsor was welcomed into the world.

Source: Getty

As expected, the life of Meghan and Harry was in the spotlight and people were eager to know all about them.

That put enormous pressure on the couple who wanted their privacy. Being part of the monarchy, Meghan was forced to leave her old life back and get used to a completely new world. She has also been the subject of criticism by many British people who had a hard time accepting her new role within the Royalty mostly because she is an American woman of color.

She has been attacked by the press constantly, and she had a hard time coping with all the pressure. Kensington Palace even issued a statement, pleading for the press and the public to take a step back when it came to writing about Meghan.

But things didn’t really change and Prince Harry felt like he had to protect his wife from all the criticism and harassment, so the two shocked the country and the world when they announced they were stepping down from their royal duties.

“After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution. We intend to step back as ‘senior’ members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen,” the post read.

“After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution. We intend to step back as ‘senior’ members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent, while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen. It is with your encouragement, particularly over the last few years, that we feel prepared to make this adjustment. We now plan to balance our time between the United Kingdom and North America, continuing to honour our duty to The Queen, the Commonwealth, and our patronages. This geographic balance will enable us to raise our son with an appreciation for the royal tradition into which he was born, while also providing our family with the space to focus on the next chapter, including the launch of our new charitable entity. We look forward to sharing the full details of this exciting next step in due course, as we continue to collaborate with Her Majesty The Queen, The Prince of Wales, The Duke of Cambridge and all relevant parties. Until then, please accept our deepest thanks for your continued support.” – The Duke and Duchess of Sussex For more information, please visit sussexroyal.com (link in bio) Image © PA

They explained how they wanted to raise their child away from the public eye and informed the people how they would be staying both in the U.K and North America.

“This geographic balance will enable us to raise our son with an appreciation for the royal tradition into which he was born, while also providing our family with the space to focus on the next chapter, including the launch of our new charitable entity,” they wrote.

Many didn’t like the idea of baby Archie being brought up away from his father’s family, especially his great grandmother, Her Majesty the Queen. But the new parents wanted a quieter life for their family and pursued their dream.

What comes as a big news for their fan these days is that Meghan had been keeping a diary since she and Harry got together and people hope it will turn into an autobiography. Royal writer, Andrew Morton, who wrote Diana: Her True Story five years before Princess Diana’s death, is fascinated by the idea of working on a book with Meghan. He already penned Meghan: Hollywood Princess.

The news of Meghan’s pregnancy with Archie was revealed on Eugene’s wedding day and according to many, that apparently stole the limelight from the bride.

“Meghan put her foot in it when she decided that it would be the ideal moment to announce that she and Harry were expecting their first child,” the book Royals at War, written by Dylan Howard and Andy Tillett says.

“This was a huge social gaffe, even if you were not a royal – stealing the limelight from Eugenie, who was furious, as was her mother, Sarah.”

According to Harry’s book Spare, however, Eugene wasn’t mad at all because the relationship between him and her has always been a very special one.

In fact, Eugene was the first member of the family to learn that Harry and Meghan were dating.

When they were children, the two cousins spent a lot of time together as their families went on holiday. Harry and his brother, William, grew up at Kensington Palace in London and Highgrove House in Gloucestershire, while Princess Eugenie lived near Windsor Castle.

Even when they grew up, they have maintained a very close bond and did a bunch of things together.

“Out of all the Queen’s grandchildren, Harry and Eugenie have one of the most natural connections,” authors Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand wrote in the Sussex biography Finding Freedom.

“Like Harry, Eugenie is loyal, honest and great fun. The two had many nights out together in London, sneaking into back entrances of clubs, such as Mahiki, where Jack once was manager, or Tonteria, where in one of the VIP cave areas, they downed shots from Mexican skull-shaped glasses and a giant frozen margarita (with multiple straws).”

In the Harry and Meghan Netflix series, Meghan revealed that she and Harry used to go on double dates with Princess Eugene and her then-boyfriend Jack Brooksbank.

Meghan recalled one particular night the four went out together.

“Well, if it’s going to come out tomorrow, let’s go and have fun tonight!” Meghan said.

Harry added: “We went to this Halloween party together, where we could be completely dressed up, and no one would know. I had a bandana and goggles on.”

In the last episode of the series, Eugene visited the couple in California.

She is believed to have been the only royal that has visited Harry and Meghan since their move from the UK.

“Harry and Eugenie have always been close ever since they were children. He always makes her laugh. They share a sense of humour,” a source told the Daily Mail.

“She is friends with Meghan too, and was close to his two previous girlfriends, Chelsy Davy and Cressida Bonas. It was Eugenie who helped set up Harry and Cressida. She refuses to abandon him. She is a very loyal lady, she is not one for taking sides.”

On the day of Eugene’s wedding, Harry and Meghan were overly excited for her and her husband.

“At Windsor, just before a drinks reception for the bride and groom, we cornered Pa in his study. He was sitting behind his big desk, which afforded his favourite view, straight down the Long Walk… He was delighted to learn that he would be a grandfather for a fourth time; his wide smile warmed me,” Prince Harry recalled how he broke the news to his father.

“After the drinks reception in St. George’s Hall, Meg and I pulled Willy aside. We were in a big room, suits of armor on the walls. Strange room, strange moment. We whispered the news, and Willy smiled and said we must tell Kate.”

Harry added, “She was across the room, talking to [her sister] Pippa. I said we could do it later, but he insisted. So we went and told Kate and she also gave a big smile and hearty congratulations. They both reacted exactly as I’d hoped — as I’d wished.”

However, royal fans were angry with the timing of the announcement of the pregnancy.

“Why would you do that? To upstage the bride on her big day. Megs would have been livid if someone did that to her,” one person said.

“It is called attention-getting when rude people intrude into other people’s big day,” another angry person wrote.

“I wouldn’t have, even if the bride and groom were OK with the announcement, something this special should be shared separately,” a third added.

“Why would Meghan and Harry think it’s OK to announce their pregnancy at their cousin’s wedding? They couldn’t wait one more day?” another person asked.

According to some, one of those people who was angry was Princess Eugenie’s mother and that was the reason why she tweeted a photo of the dress she would wear to her daughter’s wedding at the same time the Sussex Royals announced the news of Meghan’s pregnancy.
