Nepo babies mock their TV star dad in hilarious TikTok – can you guess who their famous parent is?
A TOP TV star has been mocked by his nepo baby children in a hilarious new TikTok clip. The kids of the actor and TV host took centre stage in the funny skit which garnered plenty of laughs from their fans. 4 4 The clip followed a recent viral trend which sees people dismissing a large amount of money for a restaurant bill as "not that bad" when they aren't the ones paying it. But for these nepo-babies, the trend was even funnier given that their multi-millionaire father was the butt of the joke. But would you be able to work out who their very famous father is? It is Terry Crews - leading sitcom star and host of America's Got Talent. Terry has appeared in movies such as White Chicks, Idiocracy and Blended before becoming better known for TV outings such as Julius Rock in Everybody Hates Chris and Terry Jeffords in Brooklyn Nine-Nine. In the clip, Terry and his family were dining at the eatery, Martha's Vineyard. His children that participated in the skit which confirmed their meal would set them back $857. His son then mouthed: "Oh, that's not too bad!" The camera then panned to reveal Terry as he reclined back in his chair after hearing his children brush off the extortionate amount. Reacting to the clip, one fan said: "I was like how is anyone affording $857 for dinner in this economy and then saw Terry Crews." Controversial Noughties comedy movie star sparks rumours of sequel to cult classic - despite it winning Worst Picture Razzie Another then added: "I feel the pain Terry Crews! My family just be acting like oh that's not much!! Hahahaha." Before a third insisted that he was adopting the character of Julius in the moment, insisting: "That's not Terry Crews. That's Julius Rock." With another echoing: "That wasn't Terry at the table… that was Julius." Terry shares five children with his wife Rebecca King and the pair have been married for over 30 years. Terry and Rebecca met in a local Michigan church in the 1980s. At the time, Rebecca was a music minister at the church while Terry was a student at Western Michigan University. The couple's first child, Naomi Burton-Crews, was born to Rebecca and her ex, Charles Burton, but was later adopted by Terry. Their second daughter, Azriél Crews, was born in the same year the pair married. They also have Tera, Wynfrey and Isaiah. 4 4

Horrifying ancient meal loved by Neanderthals is a dieter's dream – but would YOU eat sickening dish?
NEANDERTHALS may have feasted on maggot-infested meat as a core part of their diet, according to a new study. But the pungent delicacy was more than simply "starvation rations", said Melanie Beasley, assistant professor of anthropology at Purdue University, Indiana. 2 A number of Indigenous communities have viewed putrefied - or fermented - meat as highly desirable. It is easier to digest, meaning the body can better and more quickly absorb nutrients without cooking. Experts have long known that Neanderthals - our extinct human ancestor - were omnivores, eating meat and vegetables like most modern people. But chemical signatures found in Neanderthal remains suggest they ate as much meat as lions. Analysis of their bones found too much nitrogen than what a classic omnivore would have. But hominins simply cannot tolerate eating the high levels of protein that large predators can. When humans eat as much protein as Earth's apex predators – or hypercarnivores – over long periods of time, without consuming enough other nutrients they can develop protein poisoning. Also known as "rabbit starvation", protein poisoning can lead to malnutrition and death. Research from Beasley and her team suggests that Neanderthals had a hidden delicacy: maggots. Similar to the historical diets of some indigenous communities, Neanderthals too may have dined on decaying meat. Stunningly lifelike face of 75,000-year-old Neanderthal woman in her 40s recreated after 'best-preserved' skull found It is this that would have boosted their internal nitrogen levels to hypercarnivore-levels, according to the study. Maggots, which are fly larvae, can be a fat-rich source of food. They are unavoidable after you kill another animal, easily collectible in large numbers and nutritionally beneficial. Melanie Beasley, assistant professor of anthropology at Purdue University, Indiana "We suspected that maggots could have been a different potential source of enriched nitrogen-15 in the Neanderthal diet," Beasley explained in a recent article published in The Conversation. "Maggots, which are fly larvae, can be a fat-rich source of food. "They are unavoidable after you kill another animal, easily collectible in large numbers and nutritionally beneficial." Beasley and her colleagues used data from a forensic anthropology project focused on how nitrogen might help estimate time since death to investigate the possibility. "I had originally collected modern muscle tissue samples and associated maggots at the Forensic Anthropology Center at University of Tennessee, Knoxville, to understand how nitrogen values change during decomposition after death," she said. "While the data can assist modern forensic death investigations, in our current study we repurposed it to test a very different hypothesis. "We found that stable nitrogen isotope values increase modestly as muscle tissue decomposes, ranging from -0.6 permil to 7.7 permil." The researchers found that maggots found in dried, frozen or cached animal foods would have inflated the nitrogen levels in ancient humans during the Late Pleistocene era. Research shows that [nitrogen-15] values are higher for cooked foods, putrid muscle tissue from terrestrial and aquatic species, and, with our study, for fly larvae feeding on decaying tissue. "Neanderthals' cultural practices, similar to those of Indigenous peoples, might be the answer to the mystery of their high [nitrogen-15] values. "Ancient hominins were butchering, storing, preserving, cooking and cultivating a variety of items. "All these practices enriched their paleo menu with foods in forms that nonhominin carnivores do not consume. "Research shows that [nitrogen-15] values are higher for cooked foods, putrid muscle tissue from terrestrial and aquatic species, and, with our study, for fly larvae feeding on decaying tissue." Although maggots may not solely explain the lion-like nitrogen levels in Neanderthals, according to the researchers. It is still unclear how many maggots an ancient human would need to eat to account for so much nitrogen. More research is needed on changes in nitrogen-15 values of foods processed, stored and cooked following Indigenous traditional practices to "help us better understand the dietary practices of our ancient relatives," said Beasley. 2
