Internet star Trisha Paytas names newborn after superhero
Internet personality Trisha Paytas has revealed that she and husband Moses Hacmon have named their newborn son Aquaman. The coupe's third child— whose full name is Aquaman Moses Paytas-Hacmon — follows the arrivals of girls Malibu Barbie, 2, and Elvis, 10 months. Sharing images from her son's birth to Instagram, which took place on July 12, the YouTube star beamed as she and Moses cradled the newborn who matched in aqua-themed garb. Other photos depicted the couple's older children becoming familiar with their newest sibling. '💙AQUAMAN MOSES PAYTAS-HACMON💙 Born 07.12.25 @ 12:40 am 🙏,' Paytas captioned the post. The YouTube star had previously explained on her Just Trish podcast the inspiration behind Aquaman, suggesting they needed a 'movie poster' name to match those of Elvis and Barbie. Paytas also noted the baby's star sign of Cancer is a water sign, and that she's had an affection for Aquaman, played in film by Jason Momoa, for several years. The internet star has been flooded with well-wishes as fans revelled in the superhero connection. Jason Momoa as Aquaman.

Corners of the internet have noted the bizarre trend of Paytas' newborns being oddly timed with celebrity deaths, with some conspiracists believing her kids are the reincarnations of fallen stars. 'Ozzy, that you?' one fan posited, in reference to the Tuesday death of iconic Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osborne. In 2022, Paytas had advised followers she'd gone into labour with Malibu shortly before the Royal Palace had announced the death of Queen Elizabeth II. While the timing didn't quite align with her second child's birth, some sleuths drew a long bow when connecting the April 2025 death of Pope Francis with Paytas' May 2024 birth of Elvis. 'Is it just like any influential person that dies gets to come reincarnate as my baby?' she said on her Just Trish podcast at the time. 'I don't understand why my womb is carrying all these souls.' Despite sharing her baby photos ostensibly in coordination with the death of Osborne, the 37-year-old confirmed Aquaman's birth took place weeks earlier. Trisha Paytas with her three chidlren.

She continued to reveal the chaos of the 'traumatising' premature birth, saying she was forced to wait for three other c-sections to be completed at the hospital before she could be seen. 'I actually thought I was going to die—I was like, 'I don't know if I can handle this,' Paytas recalled. However, once delivery began, the YouTuber said she was introduced to her son in just 10 minutes.

Ozzy Osbourne 'in the pantheon of rock gods': Elton
Elton John says Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne was a "huge trailblazer" who "secured his place in the pantheon of rock gods". He joined Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood and other famous faces in paying tribute to the Black Sabbath singer after his death on Tuesday. Sir Elton posted on Instagram: "So sad to hear the news of Ozzy Osbourne passing away. "He was a dear friend and a huge trailblazer who secured his place in the pantheon of rock gods - a true legend. "He was also one of the funniest people I've ever met. I will miss him dearly. To Sharon and the family, I send my condolences and love. Elton xx." Wood joined Osbourne at Black Sabbath's last gig at Villa Park, Birmingham, earlier this month. He posted on X: "I am so very sad to hear of the death of Ozzy Osbourne. "What a lovely goodbye concert he had at Back To The Beginning in Birmingham." Singer Yungblud, who sang Black Sabbath's Changes at the Back To The Beginning farewell concert on July 5, said he was "heartbroken" by the news and called Osbourne "the greatest of all time". "I didn't think you would leave so soon the last time we met you were so full of life and your laugh filled up the room," he wrote in a social media post. Rock band Motorhead said they had lost a "dear friend" in a post that recalled the band's late vocalist Lemmy's friendship with Osbourne. "We lost our dear friend today today. Ozzy was a pioneer, a guiding force for all in hard rock and metal, and a great guy too. "Lemmy and Ozzy were brothers in arms who enjoyed many adventures together, and his loss is seismic. RIP Ozzy, we will always love and celebrate you ...", they wrote. AC/DC posted that Osbourne's death was a "great loss to all that loved him", with Metallica members calling him an "icon" and "mentor" while sharing photos from rock photographers Ross Halfin and Noah Abrams. "He taught us how to play in the big leagues while at the same time being warm, welcoming, engaging, and all around brilliant," they wrote on Instagram. Among the other stars paying tributes were David Beckham, Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong, Queen guitarist Brian May and US movie star Adam Sandler, who said he felt "so happy" that he was able to meet Osbourne. Sir Brian said Osbourne's final concert earlier in the month "was a glorious way to say goodbye" to the heavy metal vocalist. Actor Jason Mamoa shared a photo of himself alongside Osbourne and his wife Sharon to Instagram, writing: "Love you @ozzyosbourne All my aloha @sharonosbourne and ohana. So grateful." Aston Villa, Osbourne's home town football club, said it was "saddened" to learn of the star's passing. "Growing up in Aston, not far from Villa Park, Ozzy always held a special connection to the club and the community he came from," the club said. "The thoughts of everyone at Aston Villa are with his wife Sharon, his family, friends, and countless fans at this extremely difficult time."
