DDG and Adin Ross react live as Halle Bailey granted restraining order over domestic abuse allegations
On May 14, 2025, rapper DDG was caught off guard while livestreaming with Adin Ross when news broke that Halle Bailey had been granted a restraining order against him.
The development, first reported by TMZ, includes allegations of physical abuse involving the couple's child, Halo. They published the story with photos of Bailey's injuries, which she submitted as evidence.
Bailey claims the incident occurred during a visit by DDG to pick up their child. According to her report, DDG chipped her tooth and left visible bruises on her arms. In the following months, he allegedly broke her Ring doorbell, took her phone, and later damaged it. These events prompted Bailey to file a police report and request court protection.
The court granted a restraining order barring DDG from coming within 100 yards of Bailey. She is also permitted to travel to Italy with their child for two months while filming a movie.
While the story was unfolding, DDG and Adin Ross were livestreaming from a clothing store. Footage showed both visibly reacting to the news. DDG appeared stunned and silent, while Ross tried to console him, saying, 'DDG is a good guy and this is all fake narratives.'

The restraining order's duration has not yet been disclosed, and it remains unclear whether DDG will make a public statement in the coming days. This incident follows a period of declining momentum in DDG's music career, including disappointing sales of his latest album, Blame The Chat.
Fans have been sharing support for Bailey on social media, expressing concern over the reported events. The legal case continues to develop and may prompt further proceedings.

Netizens react as ‘Love Island USA' season 7 contestant Yulissa Escobar exits show amid racist clips backlash
Yulissa Escobar has unexpectedly left Love Island USA Season 7 shortly after the series' second episode. The reason behind her departure has not been officially revealed, but the timing follows the resurfacing of clips in which she reportedly uses racial slurs. In episode two, series narrator Ian Stirling made a brief announcement about 18 minutes in, saying, 'Yulissa has left the villa.' Escobar had been coupled up with Ace Greene, but Stirling also mentioned that Greene was now single. While Peacock has yet to comment on the situation, the controversy surrounding Escobar began shortly after the season seven cast was announced. Clips from a podcast, which were obtained by TMZ, show Escobar allegedly using the N-word multiple times. The backlash was swift on social media, with many calling for accountability. Escobar has not yet responded to the allegations as she remains in the villa, where contestants are not allowed to have personal phones. Fans have expressed mixed reactions on social media, with some celebrating her exit, while others criticise the producers for allowing such behaviour to continue on the show. One user on X questioned, 'How did TikTok do more of a background check on that Yulissa girl than the Love Island producers?'

Man sues Disney World for injuries after flying off Blizzard Beach's waterslide
A Florida man has filed a lawsuit against Walt Disney World, claiming he suffered catastrophic injuries while riding a waterslide at the resort's Blizzard Beach Waterpark in 2021. The complaint, filed last Thursday, alleges the ride failed to safely accommodate the rider's weight, resulting in severe physical and emotional harm. Eugene Strickland, who weighed 334 pounds at the time, rode the Downhill Double Dipper slide despite the attraction's posted 300-pound weight limit, according to court documents obtained by TMZ and reported by the New York Post. Strickland asserts that the inner tube on the ride slipped out from beneath him during the descent, causing him to become briefly airborne before landing forcefully on the hard plastic slide surface. As a result, Strickland claims to have sustained long-lasting injuries, including pain, scarring, disfigurement, and mental anguish. He also states he has lost the capacity to enjoy life and continues to struggle nearly four years after the incident. Though it remains unclear whether Strickland was aware of the ride's weight restrictions at the time, the lawsuit argues that Disney failed to provide adequate safety measures or proper warnings. The suit alleges negligence on the part of the theme park, stating that Disney should have either addressed the potential hazard or clearly communicated the risks to guests. Strickland is seeking more than $50,000 in damages. The case adds to a growing list of complaints involving Disney's water parks. In a separate incident, a woman from Long Island is suing for $2 million after allegedly sustaining injuries from a powerful wave at Typhoon Lagoon. As of now, Walt Disney World has not issued a public statement regarding the lawsuit.

'King of the Hill' voice actor Jonathan Joss dies after fatal shooting in San Antonio at 59
Jonathan Joss, the voice actor renowned for his role as John Redcorn on King of the Hill, tragically died on Sunday, June 1, after being fatally shot at his San Antonio, Texas, home. The 59-year-old actor was found near the roadway by responding officers around 7 p.m. Despite attempts to perform life-saving measures, paramedics declared Joss dead at the scene. Authorities quickly located and apprehended a suspect, 56-year-old Sigfredo Alvarez Cejam, who had fled the scene in a vehicle. Police confirmed that Cejam, a neighbor of Joss, has been booked for murder. Investigations into the incident are ongoing. Joss was best known for voicing John Redcorn on the animated series King of the Hill, a role he began in Season 3 after the tragic death of the original actor, Victor Aaron, in a car accident. The series aired in the late '90s and early 2000s, and Joss had been set to return for the show's revival, which is set to premiere on Hulu this August. Hours before his death, Joss posted an Instagram video discussing the upcoming King of the Hill reboot and his excitement about the project. In addition to his work on the animated series, Joss had recurring roles on Parks and Recreation as Chief Ken Hotate and appeared in several notable projects, including Tulsa King, Ray Donovan, True Grit, and The Magnificent Seven. The news was first reported by TMZ, and authorities have yet to release further details about the motive behind the shooting.
