Sophie Nyweide Passes Away At 24; Mom's Heartbreaking Message Revealed
Former child actor Sophie Nyweide has tragically died at the age of 24. Her family confirmed the heartbreaking news after her body was discovered near a makeshift shelter on a riverbank in Vermont. Sophie, who appeared in films like Noah and An Invisible Sign, began her acting career at just six years old. Her mother, Shelly, told TMZ that Sophie was never a typical "child star" and always felt safe on film sets. She believes her daughter may have been using drugs and possibly self-medicating before her death. Sophie was reportedly with unfamiliar people at the time. An autopsy is underway, with results expected in 6–8 weeks.

Love Island removes Yulissa Escobar after viral casteist slur video shocks fans
It has not taken long for Season 7 of Love Island USA to spiral into controversy. In just the second episode, fans were hit with the shocking onscreen message: 'Yulissa has left the villa.' No context, no warning—just a vanishing act that sparked instant speculation online. Love Island drama hits early—and it is messy Turns out, the abrupt exit of Miami-based contestant Yulissa Escobar came right after a resurfaced video exposed her using the N-word in past podcast appearances. The clip, published by TMZ just one day before the episode aired, sent social media into meltdown. By the time the second episode hit Peacock, Yulissa was officially gone. Fans were not quiet about their feelings. Even before the episode aired, the comment section under Yulissa's official cast photo had already turned into a digital battleground. Viewers were calling for her to be eliminated, with messages like, 'We're sending you home the FIRST vote' flooding the post. Her Instagram eventually limited the comments—but the damage had been done. Network confirms her exit, but keeps it vague A Peacock spokesperson confirmed that 'Yulissa left the villa,' but offered no explanation. While Entertainment Weekly reached out to Escobar's reps, there has been no public statement from her team as of now. The show moved on quickly, but the fans? Not so much. Who was Yulissa Escobar before the controversy? Before the scandal, Yulissa was introduced as the fun, confident 27-year-old mobile bar owner looking for her 'knight in shining armour.' Fresh off a nine-year relationship, she claimed she was stronger and happier than ever. 'I am like a bundle of joy that came out of nowhere,' she said in her promo video. But that joyful energy quickly evaporated with the controversy now surrounding her name. The internet reacts From Twitter threads to TikTok and Instagram, the internet has been ablaze. Some are praising Peacock for acting swiftly, while others are questioning why proper vetting did not catch the clips earlier. Either way, Love Island has officially entered its drama era—and it is only week one.

George Wendt's cause of death revealed, death certificate discloses heartbreaking details
'Cheers' star George Wendt's cause of death has been revealed weeks after he suddenly died. Wendt, famous for playing barfly Norm Peterson in all 11 seasons of the NBC show, died from cardiac arrest, a death certificate obtained by TMZ reported. The death certificate reportedly also listed congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, and hypertension as underlying causes. Other contributing factors that were listed were end-stage renal disease (kidney failure) and hyperlipidemia. Wendt's loved ones told the New York Post that he died 'peacefully in his sleep' on Tuesday, May 17, aged 76. 'George was a doting family man, a well-loved friend and confidant to all of those lucky enough to have known him,' the family rep's told the outlet in a statement. 'He will be missed forever. The family has requested privacy during this time.' Wendt made his last few public appearances in 2024. He notably received six Emmy nominations for Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for his role as Norm. Many of Wendt's co-stars remembered him in statements to the outlet after his death. 'Cheers' co-star Ted Danson, 77, said, 'I am devastated to hear that Georgie is no longer with us,' according to a rep for Danson. 'I am sending all my love to Bernadette and the children. It is going to take me a long time to get used to this. I love you, Georgie.' Rhea Perlman said, 'George Wendt was the sweetest, kindest man I ever met. It was impossible not to like him. As Carla, I was often standing next to him, as Norm always took the same seat at the end of the bar, which made it easy to grab him and beat the crap out of him at least once a week. I loved doing it and he loved pretending it didn't hurt. What a guy! I'll miss him more than words can say.' Wendt later played Norm in two 'Cheers' spinoffs: 'The Tortellis' and 'Frasier.' He is survived by his wife, actress Bernadette Birkett; their children Hilary, Joe and Daniel; and his stepchildren, Joshua and Andrew.

Who is Yulissa Escobar? Love Island USA contestant dismissed for hurling the N-word
Love Island USA Season 7 is off to a chaotic start, as one of the original contestants, Yulissa Escobar, was abruptly removed from the villa during the second episode after old podcast clips resurfaced showing her hurling racial slurs, including repeated use of the N-word. Notably, around the 18-minute mark of Wednesday's episode, as the islanders were just beginning to wake up, narrator Iain Stirling casually announced, 'Yulissa has left the villa.' No further context was provided. The departure follows days of mounting online backlash after the resurfaced podcast clips, obtained and reported by TMZ, began making rounds. In the audio, Escobar can be heard using the N-word several times while discussing past relationships.

Escobar isn't the only Season 7 contestant. Shortly after the cast was officially announced, an X (formerly Twitter) user shared screenshots allegedly showing Austin Shepard's liked TikToks, many of which featured content in support of former President Donald Trump. Shepard however has remained in the villa and is still a part of the current lineup. With Escobar gone, the remaining female contestants in the villa include Chelley Bissainthe, Huda Mustafa, Belle-A Walker, and Olandria Carthen. The guys vying for love (and the $100,000 prize) are Ace Greene, Taylor Williams, Nicolas Vansteenberghe, and Jeremiah Brown. The show also introduced two early 'bombshells': Cierra Ortega and Charlie Georgiou. 'Islanders will couple up to face brand new heart-racing challenges and bigger twists and turns than ever before,' the show's logline reads.
