Travis Hunter gives brutal verdict on controversial fiancée's $30,000 NFL Draft gift
Travis Hunter recently received a lavish NFL Draft gift from his fiancée, but the new Jaguars rookie had a surprising opinion on the piece of jewelry.
Hunter's Fiancee, Leanna Lenee, got the wide receiver/cornerback a Rolex Day-Date before he heard his named called by the Jaguars, but a new video shows how taken aback he was by the price of the item.
After looking up the price - and learning that it cost $30,000 - Hunter offered a rather brutal response to his friends.
'S*** I coulda bought a new boat... just give me the money,' he said in a video posted by Hellion 'Boog' Knight, the head of operations for Young Money APAA (the agency Hunter is signed to).
While one of the former Colorado star's friends could be heard calling the watch an 'investment,' Hunter then shifted his focus to the watch on his wrist, which was also apparently a gift.
'This is worth 70 [thousand]?.Yeah, ya'll tripping,' he said.

'See me, don't expect these types of gifts from me. That ain't happening, my boy. These types of gifts ain't happening, not from me.'
Hunter's gifts came as he was selected No. 2 overall in the NFL Draft by the Jaguars, with Lenee and his mother, Ferrante, there to support him.
While Hunter had a tremendous season for Colorado and won the Heisman Trophy, things were rockier off the field as his relationship with Lenee was frequently scrutinized.
The public constantly questioned her motives for dating the star, who she's been with for five years.
Fans picked apart a seemingly a tense moment after a game against Oklahoma State, and she was also criticized she made comments she made as Hunter was taking photos with female fans during a pre-Heisman photo shoot.
During the ceremony itself, she would find herself in hot water again when she initially remained sitting after Hunter was announced as the winner of the award.
On a Twitch stream after the ceremony, Hunter revealed that Lenee had cried herself to sleep as she continued to be pelted with criticism.
Both deleted their Instagram accounts in December, though Hunter's is now back up.
Hunter told people to stop targeting her, specifically calling out 'clickbait' pages, social media accounts, and websites.
'Clickbait pages stop, y'all better stop I'm telling y'all. Something bad is gonna happen to y'all [if you] keep doing that. Y'all better stop that. I ain't playing,' he said.

Remember Rico from Hannah Montana? You won't believe what the actor looks like now
Moises Arias was skyrocketed into the spotlight when he starred as the troublemaker Rico in the beloved Disney Channel series Hannah Montana in the early 2000s. But now, nearly two decades after the show premiered, the actor looks so different from his Disney days. Moises, now 31, was cast in the Miley Cyrus-lead series in 2006 when he was only 12 years old. He played Rico Suave, a rich genius who manages Rico's Surf Shop - the beach concession stand that Miley's older brother Jackson works at. The two would sometimes feud and other times get into trouble together, making for a pretty epic duo. The actor started as a supporting role in the first season, but his character was so popular he was promoted to the main cast for its second season. He continued to star Rico for all four Hannah Montana seasons before it came to an end in 2011. But now, flash forward 14 years later, and Moises is practically unrecognizable. In a recent selfie shared to Instagram, the former Disney star sported some scruffy facial hair and a much-shorter hairstyle. Moises made his acting debut in 2006 in the movie Nacho Libre. He also had a brief appearance in the show The Suite Life of Zack and Cody before he landed his breakout role in Hannah Montana. The show followed teen Miley Stewart who was secretly living a double life - some days she was a normal middle school student but other days she was pop sensation Hannah Montana. Hiding her true identity - which was concealed by a blonde wig - from her classmates often put her in tricky situations. It also starred Billy Ray Cyrus, Emily Osment, Mitchel Musso, and Jason Earles. After the show turned Moises into a sensation practically overnight, he went on to star in a slew of big movies and shows. He acted in the film Beethoven's Big Break, the drama The Perfect Game, the comedy Noobz, the coming-of-age film The Kings of Summer, sci-fi flick Ender's Game, historical drama Ben-Hur, Pitch Perfect 3, the comedy Little B***hes, Five Feet Apart, crime drama American Murderer, and superhero movie Samaritan, amongst other things. Most recently, he played Norm MacLean in the wildly popular TV show Fallout, based off the video game of the same name. Over the years, Moises also dabbled in directing, working on a series of YouTube films with his brother, Mateo Arias, under the name Moiswashere. He also co-founded a fashion brand with his brother, Jaden Smith, and Willow Smith in 2012 called MSFTSrep. He is now also a photographer, and often shares his photos to his Instagram, where he has over 800,000 followers. Back in 2014 he became embroiled in scandal after a photo was shared to social media that showed a then-20-year-old shirtless Moises lying on a bed with a fully-clothed 13-year-old Willow. At the time, reports emerged that said Willow's parents Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith were being investigation by child protective services over the controversial snap. Jada defended the image at the time, saying there was 'nothing sexual about it.' All parties were later cleared. Jada later recalled her rage over the ordeal, explaining her on her Red Table Talk show in 2019, 'That was the first time I ever got furious.' 'I was looking at the [CPS] lady and the whole time I was thinking, "You could be helping so many kids right now,"' Willow added of the social worker. 'And you're wasting your time with a child who has everything they need.' 'The woman that was on our case, she was a nice lady,' Jada said. 'She knew.'

Why Warner Bros. Discovery is splitting into two and what this means
Warner Bros. Discovery will split into two separate public companies by mid-2026, focusing on streaming /studios and global networks respectively, amid the ongoing shift from cable to streaming. David Zaslav will oversee the streaming and studios business (including HBO Max), while Gunnar Wiedenfels will head the global networks company (including CNN, TNT, and Discovery). The separation aims to allow each company to leverage its strengths, pursue investment opportunities, and enhance shareholder value in the evolving media landscape. This move mirrors Comcast's earlier spin-off of its cable assets into a separate entity, Versant, signaling a broader trend of restructuring among media giants facing cord-cutting challenges. The split follows WBD's earlier restructuring plan to separate its linear networks and streaming units, and comes as Zaslav has been focused on reducing the company's debt, a move that has faced internal criticism.

Revealed: The 'incredible' hack to bypass Netflix's household limit rule
A TikTok user has claimed to have discovered a hack to bypass Netflix 's household limit. From 2023, the Californian streaming giant cracked down on users watching films and shows on someone else's account. Netflix also introduced different subscription plans and told its customers, 'A Netflix account is for people who live together in a single household,' on its website. However, an anonymous TikTok user, 19, who goes by @user45367891356 on the platform, has seemingly offered a route to side-step the rules. Taking to TikTok, the user shared their screen on Netflix reading the 'Your device isn't part of the Netflix Household for this account,' pop up. They then clicked on the left button of their mouse, which opened a drop down list. After selecting 'Inspect', a new side tab opened. Next, they scrolled to the top of the tab and deleted the sixth element before Netflix reloaded again without the household block. The clip quickly gained over six million views, with viewers taking to the comment section to share their thoughts, with one writing, 'Delete this before Netflix patches it.' A second user wrote, 'Sigh... they're gonna fix it now.' The user responded and urged her to sign a petition calling for Netflix to drop the household limit. Another joked, 'Now if they taught this in computing classes I would have chosen it for a GCSE.' 'You're literally incredibly amazing for this. If I knew you I'd give you a smooch,' said a fourth user. Password sharing sees users distribute their password to other people who live outside their household. This lets so-called 'freeloaders' access their account, create their own profile, and watch films and TV shows without paying a penny. According to the Intellectual Property Office, password sharing on Netflix and other video streaming platforms breaks copyright law and is therefore illegal. However, it is down to the companies themselves to take action through the courts if required. Currently in the UK, a standard Netflix account without adverts costs £12.99 a month with an option to add one extra member for an additional monthly cost of £5.99 without adverts or £4.99 with ads. @user45367891356 I realized I didn't show the first part ♬ Mozart/Requiem "Lacrimosa"(1394506) - Mint Alternatively, streamers can opt for a premium account for £18.99 a month with the option of adding a further two members for £5.99 each without adverts or £4.99 with ads. In November 2022, the company launched a 'Standard with Ads', a new subscription tier for £5.99 a month that plays adverts before and during content. For years, the Netflix terms of service said users of an account must live in the same household, but it did not take any solid action until 2023. 'Today's widespread account sharing undermines our long-term ability to invest in and improve Netflix, as well as build our business,' Netflix said in its letter to shareholders on January 19, 2023. 'While our terms of use limit use of Netflix to a household, we recognise this is a change for members who share their account more broadly.' On Netflix, a single account can host up to five 'profiles', each individually named and curated for a particular person. Each person can enjoy customised features – such as algorithmically-powered viewing recommendations, viewing history and settings – on their profile. Netflix originally designed this feature so that multiple members of a household, such as children, can enjoy content without having to start their own Netflix account and pay the monthly fee. Viewers took to the comment section to share their thoughts on the hack, with one dubbing the user 'amazing' But until 2023, there was nothing to stop it being used across multiple homes, even though the Netflix terms of service have long said users of an account must live in the same household. In effect, it meant that five people living under five different addresses could have had their own profile under one account. As such, five different people could have been using one Netflix account for the price of one. According to Netflix, this act deprives it from a potential revenue source, and 'undermines our long term ability to invest in and improve our service'.
