OnlyFans' Tiffany Wisconsin Blames Divorce on Husband Finding Video of Her With 20 Men
OnlyFans star Tiffany Wisconsin is blaming her divorce on a not-so-common marriage hangup: a video of the 20 men she claims to have slept with. 'The reason for the divorce was my husband finding the video I did with 20 guys on our wedding night,' she wrote via Instagram on Wednesday, June 4. The accompanying video, which she captioned, 'Hardest thing I've ever been through,' jumped from a shot of Wisconsin in her wedding dress to her crying in her car and finally to a group of men ascending a staircase, shown only from the waist down. It's unclear whether Wisconsin, 35, was being serious. Her Instagram page also includes a video with someone she calls her '70-year-old boyfriend' and other men with whom she's created content. Bachelor Nation Sex Confessions: From Courtney Robertson to Peter Weber Wisconsin launched her OnlyFans in 2020, a time in which she says she was overwhelmed as a stay-at-home mom in a marriage she was trying to get out of. 'I was browsing online, looking into ways to navigate financial independence, and stumbled upon the app,' she shared in a 2023 essay for Newsweek. 'Curious, I turned to my sister and asked if she knew about it. She thought it was a platform for celebrities, which left me intrigued.' Now, Wisconsin has set her sights on a new goal amid the growing trend of competitive sex among OnlyFans creators. She announced in May that she plans on trying to sleep with 5,000 men in the span of one week. 'This summer I was going to be a 2,000 guy challenge, but unfortunately somebody is already doing it and I don't want to copy or anything, so I decided I'm going to do 5,000,' she shared in an Instagram video. 'I know I can do it, and it's going to be really hard, but I'm not going to do it in one day, I'm going to do it in the span of a week.' Kaitlyn Bristowe Reveals What Led to Feelings of 'Betrayal' in Her Relationship With Jason Tartick 'I'm going to have a team plan [it] out and plan an itinerary. Also, I am going to need a nurse on site,' she continued. 'I am going to be needing as many men, so please share this with your friends, your family, coworkers, whoever to get the word out because I really want to make this happen.' Wisconsin found plenty of support in the comments, including from OnlyFans star Lily Phillips, the creator who made a YouTube documentary chronicling how she allegedly slept with 100 men in one day. 'Lol love you,' Phillips, 23, wrote. 'If you need help you know who to call ❤️❤️❤️.'

Jury convicts Wisconsin inmate accused of killing cellmate for being Black and gay
A Wisconsin man doing time for trying to kill his mother was convicted Wednesday of strangling his cellmate to death. A jury found Jackson Vogel, 25, guilty of first-degree intentional homicide in connection with the death of 19-year-old Micah Laureano at the Green Bay Correctional Institution last year, WLUK-TV reported. Vogel told investigators he killed Laureano because Laureano was Black and gay. Vogel's attorneys, public defenders Ann Larson and Luke Harrison, didn't immediately return voicemail messages seeking comment. He faces a mandatory life sentence when he is sentenced on June 27. He is already serving a 20-year prison term handed down in 2018 for repeatedly stabbing his mother, strangling her and attempting to snap her neck, according to an appellate opinion upholding that conviction. A guard found Laureano's body hanging from the top bunk of the cell he shared with Vogel on Aug. 27, according to a criminal complaint. Laureano's hands and feet were tied together with orange material. Vogel, who is white, told the guard that he killed Laureano because Laureano was Black and gay, the complaint said. He said he knocked Laureano out, tied his hands and feet and strangled him. Investigators discovered numerous cut strips of orange cloth around the cell as well as a handwritten note that said, "Kill all humans!" followed by profanities directed at Black people and gay people, according to the complaint. Laureano was serving a three-year sentence in battery and robbery cases. His mother, Phyllis Laureano, filed a federal lawsuit in February accusing prison officials of failing to protect him from Vogel. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages. Green Bay Correctional Institution, a maximum security facility, opened in 1898. Republicans have been calling for years to close the prison along with the Waupun Correctional Institution, another maximum security facility where seven inmates have died since 2023. But concerns over job losses and the cost of building a new prison have stymied any progress on either front.

Franklin 'Key Influencer' flies in jet ahead of Blue Angels air show at Smyrna Airport
Imagine flying in a Blue Angle Navy jet leading up The Great Tennessee Air Show June 7-8 at Smyrna Airport. That's the flight opportunity Jaime Motes experienced June 4 in honor of her role as the "Key Influencer" of the airshow as founder of Lexcare Hearing Foundation, which helps veterans, senior citizens and underserved children, who have experienced hearing loss. Motes rode behind Blue Angel Pilot Seven Scott Laux, a major in the U.S. Marines for probably the most exciting ride of her life. The major will serve as the Blue Angels narrator on the ground for the air show, speaking to an estimated 25,000 people expected to attend each day on Saturday and Sunday. To prepare for the flight, Motes went through training that she said included exercises in "squeezing and breathing and not pulling ejection handles," with Blue Angel Seven Crew Chief Tamara Perez. "I feel prepared," said Motes, a Franklin resident who's founder of LexCare Hearing and foundation by the same name. "Some people were nervous of practicing the breathing in front of people, but when you've given birth in front of people, it's kind of nothing." 2023 air show in Smyrna: Blue Angels return for 2nd time to Smyrna air show since death of Capt. Jeff Kuss Motes praised the pilot and crew chief for helping her know what to expect for the "memorable experience." "It was amazing," Motes said. "The ascent was absolutely my favorite. Then seeing the earth inverted. Then G-force 2, 3, 4 then 5.9. It's an out-of-body experience. I am so thankful that I did it." Motes said she's thankful for the Blue Angels, The Great Tennessee Air Show and event spokesman Jim Havey. Motes prior to flying in the Blue Angel was present with her adult daughter, Lexi Vernon, who's the inspiration behind the mother's business and foundation. "This girl, is the girl behind the mission, bilaterial cochlear implant recipient, and just an amazing young lady," Motes said. "We're very honored to be selected as the influencer rider." The daughter said she's proud of the foundation and "super excited" about her mom's opportunity to ride in the Seven Blue Angel. "We've changed so many lives just because of what I went through and hoping no one else has to go through that experience," Vernon said. "I think people should make sure they get their hearing checked right when they're born and not missed, and if you do that you should be set for life. And if you have to get a cochlear implant, it's OK." The humanitarian work of Lexcare Hearing Foundation includes over 200 free outreach services at VA clinics, military installations and air shows, Motes said. "We've done over 100 air shows served with the mobile clinic," said Motes, noting the outreach provides "free hearing screenings, free hearing protection, and really changing mind sets for people." The foundation also has a care team that follows people through their life of hearing, Motes said. "So we want people to know it's very important to hear," Motes said. "It's very important to take care of your hearing health."
