Trolls demand my marriage be ‘annulled' over wedding day surprise to the groom: ‘Diabolical'
Demands for an immediate 'divorce' are flooding one brave bride's social media comments, after she shared footage of herself executing a 'cringy' choreographed jig for her new hubby during their reception.
'That time I performed a dance on my wedding day knowing my religious family would look down on it,' Alexis Jennings, a newlywed from Texas, wrote in the closed-captions of the controversial clip.

Debated doing this for so long that by the time I convinced myself to do it, I only had less than two months to learn the choreography. DO WHAT YOU WANT ON YOUR WEDDING DAY LADIES ❤️ my man loved it 🥰 To further explain, I purposefully wore this covered up outfit and played down the dance moves out of respect for said religious family. #fyp #wedding #weddingdance #melissamolinaro #weddingtiktok #viral @Melissa Molinaro for the inspo ❤️ ♬ original sound – Alexis Jennings

The viral vid, which has scared up over 10 million TikTok views (and counting), showed the shameless sweetheart shaking a leg to Beyoncé's 2011 hit, 'End of Time,' while rocking a white sweatsuit and sneakers.

And although Jennings seemed to be having the time of her life, doing her best to groove for her groom who was seated in the middle of the dance floor, keyboard killjoys digitally pelted the bride with proverbial tomatoes in disapproval.
'What possessed [you] to do this?' questioned a concerned commenter, referring to Jennings' not-so-smooth moves.
'I sincerely can't explain how uncomfortable and awkward this would be if I was the groom,' wrote an equally underwhelmed onlooker. The shade was echoed by folks encouraging Jennings' husband to 'call off the wedding,' 'get divorced' and 'Google annulment facts.'
3 Internet trolls fiercely assumed that the groom was embarrassed by his new bride's questionable boogy.

'In broad daylight is diabolical,' teased another naysayer.
'This physically hurt me,' another declared.
'Me at the psych ward distracting the guards so my friend can escape,' joked a meanie.
3 Social media savages urged Jennings' husband to get either a divorce or an annulment in response to her eye-popping performance.

The crushing critiques notwithstanding, an uncrushed Jennings — who captioned the post, 'my man loved [the dance]' — responded to haters, writing, 'Y'all roasting me is killing me. The mean comments are only telling me what I already know — you're not gonna hurt my feelings. It's all love.'
And she's far from the only unabashed bride to slay a questionable boogie in celebration of tying the knot.
To toast her holy matrimony, a Florida woman slipped into a thong and twerked for her lucky fella while their wedding guests watched in awe.
And Breyanna, a Dallas-based bride, had to be wheeled out of her post-nuptial after party on a gurney after damaging her femur, tearing several ligaments, busting her shin and denting her knee during a freak accident on the dance floor.
But the injuries didn't stop Breyanna from enjoying every second of the once-in-a-lifetime occasion.
'It's going to be [etched] in my heart and mind for the remainder of my days,' vowed bruised belle. 'Special day.'

Unbothered Giannis Antetokounmpo parties in Greece with Bucks future unclear
Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo is on island time as rumors swirl about a potential new NBA home. The former two-time league MVP, currently at the center of offseason trade rumors, was filmed dancing on a boat in his native Greece in a TikTok video posted Sunday. 'Meanwhile in Greece,' Antetokounmpo captioned the post, adding a blue heart emoji. The 30-year-old forward, sporting white swim shorts with stripes, was holding a beverage and his phone in the clip. Fans took to the comments to give their opinions on where he should take his talents next, including the Heat, Warriors and Lakers. On Monday, Antetokounmpo unveiled his seventh signature basketball shoe with Nike, the Giannis Freak 7, which will be available July 29. Some fans speculated the shoe's 'Ignition' colorway — including neon orange and pink — is a hint that he could be headed to the Knicks. 3 Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo is enjoying some R&R in Greece amid rumors about his potential next home.

TikTok/Giannis Antetokounmpo Most signs point to the Greek Freak remaining with the Bucks next season. He's played his entire career in Milwaukee, which drafted him 15th overall in 2013. However, in the aftermath of the Bucks' third straight first-round playoff exit in April, some suspected Antetokounmpo would request a trade. On Monday, the Bucks signed former Pacers center Myles Turner after waiving injured point guard Damian Lillard — and parting ways with veteran 3-and-D big man Brook Lopez. 3 Giannis Antetokounmpo in action for the Bucks during the NBA playoffs in April.

The Bucks' 2024-25 season came to an end following a 119-118 overtime loss in Game 5 to the Indiana Pacers, the eventual Eastern Conference champions. Lillard went down with a torn Achilles tendon in Game 4, and Milwaukee seemed poised for a rebuild. Antetokounmpo is the only remaining core player from Milwaukee's 2021 title team.

Column: Chalk up another ‘L' for Chicago Cubs with a brutal 7th-inning stretch performance
It's a rare occasion when fans of the Chicago Cubs and St. Louis Cardinals agree on anything. But the longtime rival fan bases found some common ground Sunday night at Wrigley Field when almost everyone in the crowd of 40,319 booed the performance of seventh-inning stretch singer Alex Cooper, a prominent podcaster. Cooper's attempt at a humorous rendition of 'Take Me Out to the Ball Game' — singing it in an exaggerated, off-key manner — immediately fell flat, and the booing began almost instantly and picked up as she continued. Cooper was accompanied by two other women who performed some choreographed moves and lifted her up at the end of the performance, as Cubs Hall of Fame radio broadcaster Pat Hughes braced himself in case she fell on him. Because the game was televised on ESPN, viewers weren't treated to the stretch performance, which Marquee Sports Network always televises. The video of Cooper's performance quickly went viral on social media, leading to even more criticism of Cooper and the usual debate over whether the Cubs should just retire the 'celebrity performer' routine, which began as a tribute to Harry Caray after the legendary Cubs broadcaster died in 1998. Over the years the growing celebrity deficit in America has led to the proliferation of TikTok stars, podcasters and social media influencers as modern-day celebs. And that has led the Cubs to invite more people like Cooper, who is popular with her legion of followers but doesn't have the same mass appeal with Cubs fans — or, apparently, Cardinals fans. Earlier this year the Cubs invited podcaster/comedian Theo Von, who similarly used a weird voice while singing in an apparent attempt at being funny. The 'D-list' movie and TV stars who once dominated the list of stretch singers at Wrigley typically weren't booed for being bad singers. Cooper's performance Monday was being compared to the worst ever at Wrigley, a list that includes Mike Ditka, Ozzy Osbourne and NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon, though many fans enjoyed Ditka's rushed performance and Osbourne's obliviousness. The Cubs have been sensitive to criticism of their definition of 'celebrity.' Before the 2013 season they said they would try to upgrade the guest list. 'I do think we want to get A-listers,' a Cubs spokesperson said at the time. 'So if there is a celebrity in a movie … 'But we want them to understand what they're coming to do — not just come into the broadcast booth and to (promote something). They should know something about the Cubs. They should know the background of Harry Caray and what we're doing.' The Cubs eventually stopped letting the guests stay in the TV booth to talk about themselves after it became apparent many had no interest in the Cubs or baseball in general. When Caray died during spring training in 1998, it stirred much debate over how the Cubs should handle the stretch. Pitcher Kevin Foster said at the time: 'Everybody should just keep singing the song with the organ playing and without any tape. I don't think it should be stopped. We should keep the legacy going for Harry.' The Cubs decided to continue the stretch with guest performers. Shortly after Caray's funeral, they asked his widow, Dutchie Caray, what she thought of the idea. 'I said, 'Whatever,'' she told the Tribune. Dutchie was the first performer to replace her husband on an emotional day at the '98 opener. Caray's close friend Pete Vonachen followed, and an invitation to pay tribute to Harry quickly became a hot ticket. Former Cubs marketing boss John McDonough promised at the start of the '98 season the stretch singer would 'not be used as a forum to hype (WGN) programming,' which then included the WB Network and its newscasts. But that edict eventually was ignored as the stretch became a prominent part of Cubs telecasts and more celebrities wanted to be a part of it. Marquee, which the Cubs own, now televises the games and sometimes turns to its stable of reporters, analysts and studio hosts to perform during the stretch, along with personalities from WSCR-AM 670, the team's flagship radio station. The Cubs seemingly would rather promote team-approved employees than someone like popular former broadcaster Steve Stone, the White Sox analyst who has never been invited to perform at Wrigley since leaving the WGN-TV booth after the acrimonious 2004 season. Many performers have done it multiple times. Vin Scully, the late Hall of Fame broadcaster for the Los Angeles Dodgers, was an early guest of the Cubs but turned down a second invitation to perform. 'I did it once for Harry,' Scully explained to me. 'If I did it twice, it would be doing it for me, and that wouldn't be right.' What a quaint notion: doing the stretch as a tribute to Caray instead of doing it to promote your brand. Twenty-seven years after Caray's death, you wonder if some of the recent stretch singers even knew who he was. Cooper likely will receive more publicity whenever she discusses the booing on her podcast, and the moment will be considered a big success. And the Cubs will continue to give the new-age celebrities with no connection to the team a chance to promote their brand. Oh, well. As Dutchie Caray might say, 'Whatever.'
