Fox News host Kat Timpf flooded with support over return to TV amid breast cancer journey
Fox News host and comedian Kat Timpf has been applauded for her sense of humor as she made her return to television amid her breast cancer journey.
The 36-year-old appeared in the latest episode of the Fox Nation's show What Did I Miss alongside with Greg Gutfeld where she cracked a joke about her health battle.
In a clip from the program, which she shared on her social media page, Timpf made light of her recent double mastectomy.
Her joke at her own expense came after Gutfeld, 60, asked contestant Allegra if her risqué dress was taped together.
'No, I just don't have any t**s,' Allegra said.
This prompted Timpf to retort: 'I really don't have any t**s.'
The funny moment tickled audiences at home who also rushed to heap praise on Timpf for her attitude.
Taking to the comments, one said: 'What a woman to have such a great sense of humor! You're a rock star sister!'
Agreeing, another said: 'You were hilarious on this! You look great and so happy to see you again!'
'It's nice to know that Kat has a sense of humor about her recent surgery,' echoed a third.
A fourth added: 'Kat your hilarious. I love when people can laugh at themselves.'
'You look great Kay, so glad to see you!' another said.
In March, it was revealed that Kat had undergone a double mastectomy for breast cancer after receiving the shock diagnosis while pregnant.
She was told she had stage zero breast cancer just one day before going into labor with her first child.
At the time, Timpf shared a post-surgery update to let fans know she was doing well.
She shared an image from a hospital bed of her legs covered by a gown with an animated 'censored' illustration over her feet.
In the caption, she made a joke about how much her breast size had been reduced.
'Post-op! They're honestly not much smaller than they were before I got pregnant,' Timpf wrote said.
Timf has been open about her unconventional journey to parenthood as she navigated the first few weeks of her son's life while reeling from the cancer diagnosis.
At the end of February, she shared a post titled 'An unconventional birth announcement' where she detailed the emotional whirlwind of having a child and receiving the life-changing news.
'Last week, I welcomed by first child into the world. About fifteen hours before I went into labor, I was diagnosed with breast cancer,' she said.
Timpf went on to assure her supporters that the cancer was stage zero and her doctors were confident that it hadn't spread.
'I woke up more-than-a-week-past-due pregnant, completely consumed by doing everything I could to get the baby out,' she continued.
'By the afternoon, I was waddling around from appointment to appointment, talking about how to get my cancer out.
Timpf said that following the diagnosis she was 'crawling around the floor of my apartment in spontaneous labor.'
Shortly after her shock announcement, Timpf shared an update thanking her followers for their support and hitting back at those who took the opportunity to share their unsolicited advice.
Timpf welcomed her first child, a son, in February with her husband, Cameron Friscia.

Celebrity Catchphrase host Stephen Mulhern left red-faced after suffering a hilarious gaffe
Celebrity Catchphrase host Stephen Mulhern was left red-faced after making the ultimate slip-up on Saturday's episode of the show. The host, 48, showed a clip of the latest guess the catchphrase question which featured a coffee shop with rapidly increasing prices. As guests Jeremy Vine, Charlie Hedges and comedian Luke Kempner watched on as the prices continued to increase through the coffee shop roof, the host failed to give them the opportunity to answer. Stephen said: 'Literally, the prices have gone through the roof!' A hilariously awkward silence then fell over the studio when Stephen realised what he had done. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Then Jeremy, 60, jokingly pressed his buzzer and said: 'Sorry, what? Was that the answer?' Stephen, who was clearly in disbelief at his mistake, proceeded to nod before the studio, celebs and audience burst into laughter. He admitted: 'I have never in my life done that. In 10 years!' Luke Kempner joked: 'I was just thinking 'this is a very tricky one, if it's not that!' He then noted that the host had just bagged himself £200 for a charity of his choice. 'We've got a bit of Catchphrase history here!' Jeremy added before joking of the host's predecessor: 'Roy Walker never did that.' Stephen then managed to get his professional hat back on after the fail and proceeded with the game, which sees celebs try to win up to £50,000 for a charity of their choice. The show has proven so popular that it has just had the go-ahead for its 11th season, despite other cuts being made to rival shows on mainstream television. This has affected Stephen, whose other show, In For A Penny, was given the axe after six years. ITV commissioner Gemma John-Lewis said: 'We're delighted to announce a further series of the much-loved family favourite, Celebrity Catchphrase. 'The only show where you say what you see, the hugely popular series continues to win legions of fans and with Stephen's infectious and playful humour it's a firm favourite with our viewers.' The show first hit screens back in March 2018 and has featured many big-name contestants including Kelly Osbourne and Anton du Beke. Celebrity Catchphrase's predecessor, simply known as Catchphrase, first aired way back in 1985 when it was presented by Roy Walker. The show ran on and off until 2013 when it was revived by Stephen Mulhern.

Olivia Rodrigo, 22, brings rock legend, 73, on stage at Gov Ball... but 'not a single kid there knew him'
Oliva Rodrigo brought out a special guest during her performance at 2025 Governors Ball Music Festival on Saturday night, but some of her fans were scratching their heads as to who it was. The singer, who was seen glammed up last week at an appearance for Lancôme in Manhattan, New York, invited none other than David Byrne from Talking Heads to sing with her. The two came together for a rocking rendition of one of Talking Heads' biggest hits, 1983's Burning Down the House, during the set at Flushing Meadows - Corona Park in Queens, NY. Byrne, 73, wore red overalls and a white T-shirt to coordinate with Rodrigo's sparkling red bra top and brief bottoms. The pair choreographed the performance with some simple dance moves that Talking Heads fans would recognize right away. While some were blown away by the collaboration, many of Rodrigo's fans seemed to have no idea about the Byrne's stature in the music community. 'What I imagine dancing in my underwear with my dad would be like,' was one comment. 'As millennial, this is before and after my time,' wrote a follower. 'Bet many of her fans said who's that old man she invited on stage,' joked one fan on Billboard's Instagram page. 'Much respect to her because 90% of her demographic is 100% confused by this,' one person commented on the Pop Base page on X. Another added, 'If you don't know who David Byrne is, you don't get to have an opinion.' 'Can't hate on someone trying to open up a whole new generation's ears to some great music,' agreed another. 'Yeah unfortunately I can see how Olivia's usual crowd doesn't quite understand the moment but it's still awesome nonetheless,' said one commenter on the Fauxmoi page on Reddit, which also shared a video clip of the performance. Another Reddit commenter praised Rodrigo for introducing her fans to other members of the music community. In the past she has collaborated with Sheryl Crow, Alanis Morissette, Jewel, Natalie Imbruglia and Avril Lavigne. While some were blown away by the collaboration, many of Rodrigo's fans seemed to have no idea about the Byrne's stature in the music community Music fans not familiar with the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame members can learn more about them in the 1984 concert film Stop Making Sense. The movie was re-released in 2023,which is available of various streaming services. On June 5, the band released the very first video for their 1977 hit Psycho Killer starring Saoirse Ronan. 'Made in celebration of 50th anniversary of the band's first show at CBGB's, the video follows a young woman unraveling while stuck in her daily routine. It's a disquieting portrait of isolation that echoes the tension at the heart of the iconic song,' the band wrote on their Instagram page to debut the short film. Rodrigo is still traveling on her Guts World Tour. Her next stop will be Dublin, Ireland on June 24.

Dangerous Animals (2025) Movie Review – A bloody good time
A bloody good time There's an art to crafting a great trailer that doesn't spoil everything, and Dangerous Animals' teaser is almost pitch-perfect in that regard. It's gripping, intriguing, and captures the essence of this horror/thriller beautifully. Clocking in at just over 90 minutes, Dangerous Animals provides little surprises, living up to the promise produced in that teaser and embracing its distilled B-movie greatness. It's a film that's unashamedly visceral and gory, but also surprisingly effective in execution. The story draws inspiration from 10 Cloverfield Lane and Jaws, blending those influences into a lean teen horror in the vein of Don't Breathe and Hush. The opening of Dangerous Animals sets the scene for the film to follow. Mysterious, tense and just a tad surreally funny – Bruce Tucker (played to perfection by Jai Courtney) – runs a shark-diving expedition on his boat. Unfortunately, it all goes wrong for tourist Heather when her boyfriend is killed and fed to the sharks, while she's abducted by this maniacal serial killer. With Bruce on the hunt for new victims, he sets his sights on survivalist Zephyr (Hassie Harrison), a savvy and free-spirited young surfer. When she crosses paths with Bruce, Zephyr is forced to try and survive, doing everything she can to overcome this maniacal predator. With the stakes raised, Zephyr is handcuffed in the depths of Tucker's fishing boat, while he circles the water like a hungry shark, looking for tasty spots to pick up prey. Zephyr will be the next in line to meet a sticky demise though – unless she can outsmart him. The story is simplistic and rather predictable but the performances from both Jai Courtney and Hassie Harrison help this one stand out. The pair work hard to outshine one another, with Courtney's monologues about the ocean, animal hierarchies and predators both chilling and strangely educational. Courtney has an intoxicating way of filling every scene with an eerie sense of dread, and the movie is all the stronger for lingering the camera on him for an uncomfortably long time. Conversely, Harrison's portrayal of Zephyr – a spunky, tough-as-nails survivor – makes for an easy heroine to root for, especially as the movie examines a bit of her backstory and what drives her. There's no big exposition dumps or overlong explanations about the past though, with Sean Byrne instead letting audiences make draw their own conclusions. One of the standout scenes involves no dialogue at all: Bruce silently eating dinner, the camera lingering uncomfortably long. It's incredibly effective and underscores just how far gone he is. All of this is helped by the way Dangerous Animals effectively builds dread with just the right amount of hard cuts and lingering shots. The editors have done a great job here cutting the film together, clearly knowing when to cut away—and when not to. The film's main antagonistic hook (no pun intended) actually stems from Tucker rather than the sharks. These marine predators are used sparingly but effectively enough to maintain their presence as a formidable foe. However, the movie does a good job of portraying them as actual animals rather than maniacal killing machines too ala. Jaws. It's one of the more unique and welcome aspects of this movie that should definitely be applauded Having said that though, Dangerous Animals overplays its hand on several occasions. The movie attempts one too many break-out attempts for Zephyr and it diminishes their impact over time. It's also worth noting too that Moses Markley (Josh Heuston) is embarrassingly underused here. He doesn't have a whole lot to do beyond some filler investigative work to keep him busy, and the material he is given when joined with Zephyr has him playing second fiddle to her character. Moses lacks agency or anything in the way of charisma, which is a shame because this unrealized potential is a big hindrance to what's otherwise a taut thriller. Overall, Dangerous Animals is a decent, if unremarkable, thriller. It doesn't break new ground, and the plot has few surprises, but the strong lead performances and slick editing keep things afloat. Flaws and all, this one's still a bloody good time. Read More: Dangerous Animals Ending Explained
