Brooke appeared live on Bubba's Twitch stream on Tuesday, calling in to share some theories about her father's death.
Article content
'I do think it's weird that no autopsy was performed,' Brooke Hogan said.
Article content
'Because yes you can have a heart attack, but what was the reason for the heart attack? If he was up and doing breathing exercises, then that means the surgery on his heart was a success and it was working.'
Article content
Brooke, who had been estranged from her father, added that she felt 'the leukemia out of nowhere hits me as BS,' insisting she never knew of that diagnosis.
Article content
'I would be surprised if a surgeon would work on someone with leukemia or a high blood cell count and not do further investigations,' she said. 'I told my dad 'put cameras in your house because one of these bastards could push you down the stairs and nobody would ever know.''
Article content
Bubba, whose real name is Todd Clem, also alleged that Hogan's body has already been cremated and that somebody could have injected something into his dialysis port while he slept to induce a heart attack.
Article content
The medical examiner's report stated that Hogan had just returned home from surgery and was 'currently waiting to start dialysis,' while Clem claims nobody knew he was due to begin dialysis.

Reports say that the Pinellas County Medical Examiner did not perform an autopsy on Hogan because his death was not deemed to be suspicious.

'There were no signs of foul play or suspicious activity,' a member of the Clearwater Police Department said.

According to his death certificate, Hogan will be cremated at the Bay Area Crematory in Clearwater, but the specific date has yet to be announced.

'He told me he's never getting married again,' Brooke said. '(Sky is) nice and she's cool (at the beginning), and, you know, I don't really want to go into too much detail about our conversations, but he was saying, you know, 'She's pushing the marriage thing real hard.'

'And I said, 'Well, dad, you don't have to do what you don't have to do, you know.' Blame it on me.'

Brooke also claimed that the former wrestler – who reportedly has an estate in worth more than $40 million US — was worried about potentially ending things with Sky, alleging that he said: ''Well, if I broke up with her, it'd be really bad.' And I said 'What do you mean?' And he goes, 'I don't want to get into it,'

'That was the first thing where I was like what the hell? Why would he say that?'

Freakier Friday's Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan on reuniting for sequel
It's time to get freaky all over again! Decades after they first swapped lives in a fun adventure, the cast of Freaky Friday is back after two decades for more laughs and love in Freakier Friday, which is in theaters Friday. The reunion is more than just a trip down memory lane; it's a hilarious peek into what happens when a beloved cast grows up, becomes parents and gets ready to tackle the chaotic fun of a sequel, which Jamie Lee Curtis now calls 'frequel,' demanding the Disney marketing rep get a raise. Article content Article content Article content From Curtis's infectious 'weirdo' energy to Lindsay Lohan's new-mom perspective, the stars of this long-awaited film are dishing on everything from perfecting each other's mannerisms to the on-set pranks that prove some things — like a good laugh — never change. Article content Article content The film picks up decades after Tess (Jamie Lee Curtis) and Anna's (Lindsay Lohan) initial body-swapping adventure. Anna is now a single mom preparing for her wedding to a new man (Manny Jaincto), and Tess is a supportive grandmother. When their families clash, a mysterious four-way body swap occurs. Anna ends up in her rebellious daughter Harper's (Julia Butters) body, while Harper is in Anna's body. Tess finds herself in her soon-to-be step-granddaughter Lily's (Sophia Hammons) body and Lily is in Tess's. This forces them all to literally walk in each other's shoes, while they race to reverse the spell before Anna's wedding. Article content Article content Article content We sat down with Curtis, Lindsay Lohan, Julia Butters, Sophia Hammons, Chad Michael Murray, Manny Jacinto, Vanessa Bayer and Nisha Ganatra in Los Angeles, where the sequel was filmed, to discuss why the original movie's magic has endured and what it means to return to a story that has touched so many. Article content The conversation dives deep into the evolution of their characters — like how Tess has become a more supportive mom and how Anna has matured into a mother herself — and the challenges of playing a body-swapped version of a person they know so well. The cast opens up about the playful atmosphere on set, revealing how ad-libbing and physical comedy were essential to bringing the new film to life and proving that the genuine camaraderie between them is just as strong as ever. Article content Vancouver-born director Nisha Ganatra describes Curtis as a brilliant physical comedian. 'She surprised me the most when she jumped full on to the hood of a car and slid down and did that maybe five times in a row. Just her sheer joy and energy — Jamie is somebody who always has advice on how to do things that you are dying to hear. She is just a fountain of wisdom. She is a joyful person and she leads with her heart,' said Ganatra.

The Naked Gun reboot is 'trying to constantly make you laugh'
Social Sharing The Naked Gun, a classic cop spoof franchise from the late '80s, has now been rebooted for a new generation. The fourth film in the series stars Liam Neeson as Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., who must work to prevent the closure of Police Squad by — you guessed it — solving a case. The film also features Pamela Anderson, and is directed by The Lonely Island's Akiva Schaffer as well as produced by Seth MacFarlane, the creator of Family Guy. With such prolific comedy minds behind it, perhaps it's unsurprising that the film has received great reviews from audiences and critics alike for its commitment to packing as many jokes in on-screen as possible. Today on Commotion, film critics Alison Willmore and Adam Nayman join guest host Rad Simonpillai to talk about The Naked Gun, and why this just might be the summer of the comedy reboot. We've included some highlights below, edited for length and clarity. For the full discussion, including a conversation about Happy Gilmore 2, listen and follow Commotion with Elamin Abdelmahmoud on your favourite podcast player. WATCH | Today's episode on YouTube: Rad: Alison, how are you seeing this Naked Gun kind of drawing from the original, but also standing apart from it? Alison: You know, it is a spoof. The original Naked Gun was a spoof of these very serious-faced cop dramas. And in some ways, this Naked Gun is riffing on the idea of spoofing those, because it's a sort of cop drama that isn't even really the kind that we're doing now, right? It's not really making fun of Law & Order …. The reason that I was excited for it coming from [director] Akiva Schaffer, who is someone who I think really understands and is, like, a comedy dork … is that it just understands that this is a movie that should be dense with jokes. And they should be silly jokes that come at a speed and a pace, and be unapologetically goofy, or language-based or sight-gag-based in a way that I don't think you get nearly as much anymore. So to see something that is just trying to constantly make you laugh in the moment does feel rare. Rad: You said "in a way that we don't get anymore," and Adam, I think you kind of pointed that out in your review. You said a lot of the jokes in this movie are the kind that we just don't get nowadays. I think I know what you were getting at there, but can you explain that? Adam: The whole Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker, ZAZ thing when they started in the '70s was predicated on the idea that these were ancient jokes back then, you know? And the movies kind of keep moving the goalposts in terms of cultural references. There's a great running joke in this where Liam Neeson is nostalgic specifically for the year 2002. Like, he talks about the movie Chicago, and his TiVo and Catherine Zeta-Jones. They're always old jokes. So I think the joy of the ZAZ thing is that the old jokes always work. You just put a new surface on them. And that is something that [Seth] MacFarlane and Schaffer, who are aging Gen Xers, understand and embrace. Because Family Guy, maybe more than The Lonely Island, but both of those as comedy institutions are under the sign of Zucker, Abrahams and Zucker — that joke density, that idea that you watch the background as much as the foreground, the idea that something that's really, really stupid, if it's specific, comes all the way back around to being funny. So I think they honour their source material, without betraying what makes their own work funny. And then to Alison's point, it is making fun of and playing with cop films, and then melding it with some sort of hyper-contemporary stuff like AI, and big tech, and Elon Musk and self-driving cars — not because it has any kind of analytical, social-critical agenda. Just because those surfaces help those jokes work. And it's so important … that Neeson is old, or older, because he is a living link to, I think, an analog era of movie-making. Even though he's not an '80s star, he has some of what Leslie Nielsen had, which is he just sweats credibility as a guy who is kind of actually in movies like this. And that's one of the reasons, on top of him being so talented, why he is so funny in this movie.

Intense scene from Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver's film ‘Marriage Story' is great for scaring away wolves, apparently
A tense scene between Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver in their 2019 film 'Marriage Story' was great bait for 2020 Oscar voters but apparently there's another wild species that's not a fan. According to a report published by the Wall Street Journal, a fight scene from the Noah Baumbach-directed drama is among several audio clips that are being broadcast by the U.S. Department of Agriculture on a loudspeaker over farmlands across the west coast to scare off wolves that have been eating livestock from local farms. Part of the inspiration for using the fight scenes between Driver and Johansson from the film – which depicts their characters' acrimonious divorce – is to illustrate to the wolves that humans are to be feared, Paul Wolf, a USDA district supervisor in Oregon, told the WSJ. 'I need the wolves to respond and know that, hey, humans are bad,' Wolf said. CNN has reached out to a representative for Baumbach for comment. The WSJ reported that gray wolves are 'terrorizing livestock herds across the American West,' and that the USDA has been attempting to save the cattle by broadcasting alarming sounds from drones, including fireworks, gunshots and select pieces of pop culture. They have also played AC/DC's 'Thunderstruck' and Five Finger Death Punch's 'Blue on Black' to try to scare away wolves they spot from their positions overhead, according to the publication. A spokesperson for the USDA confirmed to CNN in a statement Wednesday that the organization is 'testing various sounds as part of a research project to see what elicits the strongest responses from the wolves.' The audio is being played while a drone is in the vicinity of a wolf or wolves. 'The particular audio from 'The Marriage Story' (sic) was chosen to test the effectiveness of the human voice at deterring wolves, as it has both male and female voices to represent the range of different tones. While the pilots have the ability to speak directly to the wolves through the speaker on the drone, this standard audio was chosen to control for individual differences in tone,' the statement read. 'Marriage Story' premiered in theaters in 2019. It stars Driver, Johansson and Laura Dern, and was nominated for six Oscars, including best picture and original screenplay, with Dern winning the statuette for best performance by an actress in a supporting role.
