David Hekili Kenui Bell death: Lilo & Stitch star dies
David Hekili Kenui Bell, best known for his appearance in Disney's live-action Lilo & Stitch, has died. News of his death was shared on Facebook by his sister Jalene Kanani Bell. No cause of death has been shared. 'It is with a heavy heart I share that my sweet, generous, talented, funny, brilliant and handsome little brother David H K Bell will spend today in the company of our Heavenly Father,' she wrote. On Lilo & Stitch, he played a character named Big Hawaiian Dude, a nod to the Ice Cream Man – a running gag in the animated films, where a hapless tourist repeatedly drops his ice cream before he can eat it. In the 2025 live action version, Big Hawaiian Dude drops his shaved ice when he sees Zach Galifianakis's Jumba and Billy Magnussen's Pleakley open the portal to the island. Two weeks ago, Bell had shared a video of his audition tape for Big Hawaiian Dude, along with several behind-the-scenes photos from the set. In a previous Instagram post, he gave a shout out to the cast and crew from the film, writing: 'Now, Mahalo to all who worked on this film! I knew it would be special to attend a Cast and CREW screening and it didn't disappoint! Was so awesome to see so many of the true stars in my opinion, our local crew in Hawaii. They deserve just as much or more recognition! Was also happy to see so much of the cast, especially those of us that round out the world of live-action Lilo & Stitch that the filmmakers so masterfully constructed. Until the next one, Ohana!' According to Bell's bio, he had also appeared in episodes of Hawaii Five-0 and Magnum PI. His IMDb page also lists that he was working on Amazon MGM Studios' forthcoming film The Wrecking Crew, which also stars Dave Bautista and Jason Momoa. His sister's message also shared: 'David loved being an actor, doing voiceovers, spending time with Brutus traveling as an ambassador for Kona Brew. The film industry and entertainment was so exciting to him and I loved that he enjoyed the arts. He went to Punahou and Kalani while our dad spoke Hawaiian so his ability to deliver lines with English understanding, Indigenous knowledge and Pidgen to da Max … made him a diamond in the rough. 'You can hear him over the PA system on arrival at Kona Airport where he loved working to create an awesome and safe customer experience.'

Paul Skenes returns to Omaha for a brief visit to the arena that changed his life
OMAHA, Neb. — In the far corner of the bar, on a Monday afternoon, towered Paul Skenes. He drank only water, yet all around him swirled an intoxicated mayhem, a frenzied hurricane of purple and gold. This was the Men's College World Series in full, drunken bloom: Jell-O shots by the trayful, sticky floors, ball games on big screens, a sea of golf shirts. LSU chants erupted sporadically across the crowd. One particularly well-prepared fan led a cheer with a trumpet. Advertisement At Rocco's, the unofficial hub of Omaha's pregame, midgame and postgame debauchery, the party had already reached a rolling boil. Across the street, Arkansas starter Gage Wood had just tossed the first MCWS no-hitter since 1960, an elimination-game gem to keep his Razorbacks' season alive. Back at Rocco's, the final out elicited cheers and reluctant appreciation from the LSU faithful. Behind a cordoned-off VIP area in the bar's 'Jello Shot Room,' the scene was controlled chaos. Two imposing bodyguards in all black stood watch, keeping the throngs of eager LSU fans from swarming Skenes and his sizable entourage. His über-famous girlfriend, gymnast-turned-social-media-icon Livvy Dunne, posed for photos. Todd Graves, founder of the Raisin' Cane's chicken empire and a prominent LSU booster, held court. Various acolytes sipped brews. Former players mingled. Hangers-on loitered. Off to the side, the Pirates ace chatted quietly with his battery-mate Henry Davis, another MCWS alumnus. Above and apart from it all lingered Skenes. All 6-foot-7 of him. He did not wear purple or yellow or anything that signified his status as LSU royalty. Instead, the 23-year-old was dressed in a charcoal button-down and khakis. It was as if he were trying to blend in, despite knowing full well that he cannot. He is, after all, the most recognizable college baseball player of the 21st century. Two years ago, this was his kingdom. Now, he's just visiting. In 2023, this outpost on the plains played host to Skenes' dazzling ascension to superstardom. That year, he arrived as the best amateur pitcher in the country. He left as a full-blown superstar. In between, he delivered two unforgettable performances, propelling his Tigers to a championship. With that, he went from highly regarded to downright undeniable. That was also the moment after which he was no longer able to live a normal life. Advertisement Much has happened in the two years since Skenes last visited Omaha: No. 1 overall draft pick. Social media influencer girlfriend. Major League Baseball debut. All-Star Game starting pitcher. Rookie of the Year winner. Cy Young finalist. A 1.89 ERA in 38 big-league starts. A future, somehow, still brighter than his past. Today, his autograph is worth hundreds, his presence even more. On Monday, Skenes was taking in the other side of the MCWS, the side he didn't experience during his career — the revelry, the unbridled fandom, the alcohol consumption, the theater of it all. And yet, standing there amongst the merrymaking, across the street from the arena that changed his life, Skenes seemed more observer than participant. His brief return to Omaha was made possible by a quirk of fate. The tournament often draws celebrities into its orbit, but not often do active MLB players have the logistical availability or desire to make an appearance. Skenes' was afforded the chance because his Pirates had a rare road off-day between series in Chicago and Detroit. Once LSU won its opening game Saturday against Arkansas, ensuring a prime-time winners' bracket showdown against UCLA, Skenes was granted a serendipitous opportunity. And so he flew into town on Monday, for less than 24 hours, to watch a ball game, something he hadn't done in years. Advertisement He and his entourage weren't at Rocco's for long. After about an hour, Skenes strolled over to the 'shot board' to update the tallies — LSU currently leads the contest with 7,034 Jell-O shots consumed — then slipped out with his crew. They rode golf carts about a hundred yards or so to the stadium, weaved through its underbelly and filed in right behind home plate just in time for first pitch. It was a relatively low-key showing for the man who once made this place come to life. Skenes (and Dunne) were of course shown on the big board during the game, earning a round of cheers. Once the rain rolled in, delaying the game in the bottom of the third with LSU leading 5-3, he retreated to a box upstairs, where he stayed until the contest was suspended around 10:30 p.m. A gaggle of travel ball kids stood eagerly beneath the suite where Skenes and his fellow LSU teammates gathered, hoping to catch a glimpse of the big guy. The entire operation provided Skenes with what must have been an odd, fleeting glimpse of his former life. Not quite a reliving of his good, old days — he's still only 23 and dominating big-league hitters — but a revisiting of sorts. A return to a time and a place that have faded into the past but also endure as a reminder of the glory he's striving for every day.

500 Falcon missions! SpaceX sends 26 Starlink satellites to orbit on landmark launch
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. SpaceX just notched another big launch milestone. A Falcon 9 rocket carrying 26 of the company's Starlink internet satellites lifted off from California's Vandenberg Space Force Base on Thursday (June 12) at 9:54 p.m. EDT (6:54 p.m. PDT local time, or 0154 GMT on June 13). The satellites were deployed in low Earth orbit (LEO) about an hour later as planned, the company announced via X. And, with that success, SpaceX's Falcon rocket family hit a very significant round number. Booster 1081 missions Crew-7 | CRS-29 | PACE | Transporter-10 | EarthCARE | NROL-186 | Transporter-13 | 7 Starlink missions "Falcon completes its 500th overall mission! Congratulations to the entire SpaceX team for making the impossible possible on the road to rapidly reusable rockets!" SpaceX said in another X post on Thursday night. And speaking of reusability: The Falcon 9's first stage, serial B1081, came back to Earth on Thursday night, touching down on the droneship "Of Course I Still Love You," which was stationed off the coast of Southern California. It was the 15th launch and landing for the booster, according to SpaceX's web page for the 15-6 mission. SpaceX's record for reusing a Falcon 9 first stage stands at 28 launches. The 26 newly launched spacecraft will soon join more than 7,600 active satellites in the Starlink megaconstellation, the largest satellite network ever assembled. SpaceX, led by billionaire Elon Musk, bills the Starlink service as "high-speed internet around the world" and its satellite megaconstellation does now reach around the planet. A growing number of the spacecraft support direct-to-cell capabilities, enabling texting and internet service from certain smart phones and service providers. With Thursday's launch in the books, SpaceX has now launched 72 Falcon 9 missions in 2025, of which 54 have been in support of the Starlink service. Editor's note: This story was updated at 11:20 a.m. ET on June 13 with the news that this was the 500th completed Falcon mission overall for SpaceX.
