Israel's 'Dancing with the Stars' routine goes viral with Trump and Melania tribute

A routine on Israel's "Dancing with the Stars" made headlines this week for its humorous tribute to President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump. In the recently aired episode of "Rokdim Im Kokhavim," the Israeli version of the popular reality dance competition television show, two professional dancers appear dressed as the president, in his signature blue suit and red tie, and the first lady in the navy blue outfit she wore to the inauguration earlier this year. As they listen to the National Anthem play, the dancer portraying Trump attempts to kiss Melania before she shoos him away and fixes his tie. The music then switches to the Village People's "YMCA" as the pair hit the dance floor. The dancer portraying Melania switches into an American flag outfit as the dancer portraying Trump breaks out into his signature dance moves. Clips of the light-hearted routine were widely shared on social media platform X, where they drew millions of views. "Israel 'Dance with the Stars' TV show featured one of the pairs dressed as President Trump and Melania Trump, and they absolutely killed it," one account posted on X, along with a clip from the show that drew over two million views. "This is a must-watch." The routine drew praise from the president's supporters on social media. "This is very fun!" former Trump campaign senior adviser Steve Cortes lauded. "An overseas 'Dancing with the Stars' pair dressed as Pres Trump & the First Lady and CRUSHING it…" "MUST WATCH!!" pro-Trump political commentator April Silverman also applauded, writing that the pair "absolutely killed it." The White House did not immediately return Fox News Digital's request for comment.

Priced out in Las Vegas? 5 costly steaks that can cut into tourists' wallets

Tourism in Las Vegas has dropped this summer relative to recent years, with visitors griping about Sin City's high prices, including exorbitant resort fees. But for some tourists, Vegas is still the ultimate place for indulgent amenities, drinks and – above all – once-in-a-lifetime meals. Jackie Dadas-Kraper, a Las Vegas-based publicist and vice president at Interdependence Public Relations, said the city's steak dinners can be "a performance, a status symbol and a story all in one." "Tourists are willing to spend three or even four figures on steak because this city elevates dining into an experience," she told Fox News Digital. "Here, a steakhouse meal is more than just food. It's a celebration of taste, travel and unforgettable moments." But are the unforgettable moments worth the price? Below are some examples of high-priced steaks that can cut into your wallet after just one dinner. This steakhouse's signature showpiece is a $1,000 spectacle known as "The Beef Case." It's exclusively available at the glitzy Papi Steak, inside the Fontainebleau hotel. The dish features a 55-ounce Australian wagyu tomahawk steak. It has a marbling score of 9 – the highest possible rating. To complete the over-the-top experience, the steak has been known to arrive inside a custom-designed diamond-studded suitcase. At nearly 3.5 pounds, the steak is built for sharing. John Travolta once ate the famed dish at the restaurant's Miami Beach location, as People and other sources reported. Fox News Digital reached out to Papi Steak for more information. The "Tomahawk Feast" at One Steakhouse features dry-aged U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Prime tomahawk steaks, weighing a hefty 18 pounds. The feast also comes with six sides, ranging from forest mushrooms to lobster macaroni and cheese. Priced at $1,500, it serves 10 to 12 guests and is carved at the table. But there's a catch. The tomahawk must be ordered 72 hours in advance, so that the beef can be sourced and adequately prepared, according to the restaurant. The "Taste of Japan" at the Wynn's Carversteak features a selection of traditional Japanese A5 wagyu, along with a 5-ounce Miyazaki wagyu striploin. Accompaniments include black garlic‑mirin mushrooms, shishito peppers and tare sauce. Yuzu kosho, a Japanese citrus-chili paste, is also added. At a cost of $300, there is a 4-ounce minimum and every additional ounce is $75, according to the restaurant's menu. The restaurant also offers less-expensive American wagyu, though that is still priced as high as $145. The Four Sixes Ranch Steakhouse at the Wynn offers a "Japanese Purebred Freedom Wagyu Tomahawk" dish. It weighs a hefty 48 ounces and is priced at $999.90. The beef, which is sourced from Freedom, Wyoming's Grazing Star Ranch, is carved tableside. The dish also features beef tallow raclette cheese popovers and is served with a side of bordelaise sauce. "Vaca vieja" means "old cow" in Spanish. The dish, inspired by Spanish cuisine, according to Bazaar Meat's website, offers a more mineral-rich flavor than younger beef. The per-pound price costs about $90, meaning that a bone-in cut could shoot upwards of $750. "The Bazaar team works with Mindful Meats in California, where they source whole, live 8- to 10-year-old Jerseys and Holsteins from certified-organic, non-GMO ranches in Marin and Sonoma counties for this dish," according to the menu. If you just want to try it, a tasting portion is $64. But you'll need to time it just right. The restaurant reopens at the Venetian Resort's Palazzo on Sept. 4.

Deadly bar trend endangers college town, tourist hot spot: how to stay safe

In the dim lights of a Nashville bar or the buzz of a dorm social, a seemingly innocent sip can turn sinister if someone has access to your drink. With concerns mounting in the Music City and across the country, former Syracuse Police Det. Geoff Fahringer warns that drink spiking is an opportunistic crime that thrives on distraction and offered simple, proactive steps to protect yourself. "The first thing that comes to mind is that college students have to realize is that they're not at home anymore. They're not in that maybe much safer environment of a gated community or a small town, and they really have to change their mindset to a safety awareness mindset," he told Fox News Digital. Recent reports from NewsNation and 6ABC highlight a disturbing pattern. Patrons suspect their drinks are being tampered with in bars, nightclubs and campus settings. In Nashville, home to a booming nightlife and a steady stream of college students, police and advocates say awareness is the first line of defense. "If you live in Nashville, you need to listen up. I'm not the first person to say this. If you go out — especially on Broadway, especially as a woman — you need to be super careful," @alnewton17 said in a viral TikTok video. "Being roofied is happening all the time. I have several friends who have been roofed, and they're very smart. And they're very proactive on watching their drinks." Fahringer, who spent years patrolling Syracuse University, says the same rules apply whether you're on Lower Broadway or at a rural campus bar. "Criminals are predators, and they look at targets of opportunity. If you're walking through a parking lot with your cell phone in your hand, totally oblivious, you're the weak deer in the herd to the pack of coyotes," he said. Fahringer's top prevention tips: Recent studies suggest drink spiking is far from rare. According to Psychology of Violence, which surveyed over 6,000 students at a variety of campuses, about 1 in 13 college students report being drugged or suspect they were. Of the students who reported being drugged, 79% were female. Sexual assault was more common for female victims than for male victims, the study found. For example, 17% of female victims reported having unwanted sex, compared with 6% of male victims. Female victims were also more likely to report blacking out, with 74% reporting blacking out, compared to 51% of male victims, according to the study. Fahringer said crafting a plan before getting into a sticky situation is the best tool for prevention. "Being a deer in the headlights is not your plan," he said. "Have a little strategy, talk with your friends and know what you'll do if something starts going wrong."
