Tarek El Moussa gets battery charge from Las Vegas scuffle dismissed - after fulfilling certain conditions
Tarek El Moussa is no longer in legal jeopardy after he was charged with misdemeanor battery following a Las Vegas scuffle - his case has now been dismissed. According to court records obtained by the Daily Mail, El Moussa, 43, was facing a misdemeanor battery charge over the incident, but he was able to participate in the court's Pre-Prosecution Diversion Program where he was ordered to complete 'impulse control counseling' and to 'stay out of trouble.' El Moussa was able to show proof that he completed the diversion program requirements, and a judge dismissed his case on Aug. 5. has reached out to a representative for El Moussa for comment but did not immediately hear back. The altercation occurred in June at The Palazzo at the Venetian hotel between Tarek and another male, whose identity has yet to be revealed, as confirmed by a spokesperson for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. Witnesses claimed that Tarek drove his knee into the man's head, knocking him out. Tarek El Moussa is no longer in legal jeopardy following his Las Vegas scuffle - his case has now been dismissed; pictured January 2025 A source told at the time that Tarek was defending his elderly father when the squabble occurred. The HGTV personality was cited for battery for the incident but was not arrested over it. Tarek's wife, Selling Sunset star Heather Rae El Moussa, was present at the time, but had no involvement in the physical violence. TMZ obtained a Las Vegas Metropolitan PD report that alleged the violent bust-up was captured on casino surveillance video. According to the report, the fight kicked off after Tarek's alleged victim allegedly bumped into the HGTV star's father's chair at a roulette table inside The Palazzo. The bump-in reportedly upset Tarek's father, who allegedly turned around in his seat to face the man. After Tarek's father turned his back, the man allegedly tapped him on the right shoulder and said something to him that reportedly caused Tarek, who was seated near his father, to get involved. Tarek allegedly got up from his seat and 'charged at the man, pushing him back before the two got into a 'fighting stance.'' As per the police report, Tarek's adversary allegedly went for the star's legs in an attempt to take him down. But Tarek allegedly proceeded to knee the man to the floor. The police then claimed that Tarek 'mounted the man's back and pummeled him with three blows to the head.' A source told at the time that Tarek was defending his elderly father when the squabble occurred (Las Vegas sign pictured April 2017) After the 'three blows to the head,' Tarek allegedly 'got up and walked away.' The incident was called in as an 'assault/battery' and the alleged victim told police that he wanted to press charges. The report claimed that the man suffered several injuries as a result of the casino altercation, including 'purple and red bruises under the right eye and a cut on the bridge of his nose.' The police said that the alleged victim's account of the fight with Tarek differed slightly from what they had viewed on the hotel's surveillance footage. According to cops, the man claimed he was 'aggressively approached' by Tarek at the roulette table before allegedly being 'assaulted' by him. The man insisted he was trying to defend himself. Tarek was also interviewed by police. He insisted that he only confronted the man to 'protect his Dad due to him having back problem.' However, Tarek stopped speaking with cops after his Miranda rights were read, according to TMZ. In a statement to the outlet at the time, Tarek's attorneys David Chesnoff and Richard Schonfeld said: 'Tarek intends to contest these allegations in a court of law where he will assert his right to self-defense and the defense of his elderly and infirmed father.'

Hateful anti-white posts of woke writer for prestigious Conde Nast magazine
A staff writer for The New Yorker has sparked backlash over a slew of shocking anti-white tweets. Doreen St. Felix, a journalist who has also written for Vogue and Time Magazine, swiftly deleted her social media after X users brought up her tweets about how 'whiteness fills me with a lot of hate.' In other tweets, she wrote that 'whiteness must be abolished', that she 'would be heartbroken if I had kids with a white guy' and that white people's lack of hygiene once started a plague. 'I hate white men,' the 33 year-old Haitian-American writer said in yet another post, which was first highlighted by conservative journalist Chris Rufo. 'You all are the worst. Go nurse your f***ing Oedipal complexes and leave the earth to the browns and the women.' St. Felix found her corrosive missives in the spotlight after writing for the Conde Nast-owned magazine about the controversy surrounding actress Sydney Sweeney 's American Eagle jeans campaign. The article slammed Sweeney's fans for 'wanting to recruit her as a kind of Aryan princess', and said there were plenty of reasons' not to like the actress's advert. Social media users flooded the New Yorker's X post on the article with St Felix's tweets, with one responding: 'She doesn't seem very neutral...' 'I think it may not be about the jeans,' another said, with screenshots of the writer's inflammatory tweets, some of which date back a decade. In one of the resurfaced posts, St Felix admitted that she 'writes like no white is watching.' St Felix's fascination with the Earth before whites continued in other posts, with one saying that 'we lived in perfect harmony w/ the earth pre whiteness.' 'All humans are not the reason the earth is in peril,' she wrote. 'White capitalism is.' Despite her disdain for capitalism, St Felix appears to benefit from its fruits. Her address listed as a $1.3 million home in a gated Brooklyn community which faces a pretty marina. In another post from 2015, she said that 'it's really gonna suck when we have a white president again.' 'White people, who literally started a plague because they couldn't wash their asses, need never say they taught black people hygiene,' she said in another. In one confusing take, St Felix said that 'middle class white people think hospitals are places to go when you're sick - that the police are who you go to when you need safety.' St Felix deleted her social media after the tweets resurfaced, and she could not be reached for comment. Daily Mail has contacted Conde Nast and the New Yorker for reaction to St Felix's missives. St Felix has been a staff writer at The New Yorker since 2017, and is a regular contributor to the weekly column Critics Notebook, according to her New Yorker profile. She was previously editor-at-large at Lenny Letter, a newsletter by actress Lena Dunham, and was a culture writer at MTV News. In 2016, the year after many of her tweets about white people were sent, she was named on Forbes' '30 Under 30' media list. In 2017, she was a finalist for a National Magazine Award for Columns and Commentary, and, in 2019, she won in the same category.

Miles. review – soulful ode to the jazz genius behind Kind of Blue
Celebrity biographical dramas are ten a penny but it takes audacity for a performer to emulate the famous person in question. What elevates Miles., a tribute to jazz legend Miles Davis, is the role of musician Jay Phelps. Not only does he give a credible imitation of Davis's spare trumpet style, he also plays along convincingly to backing tapes of Kind of Blue, regarded by many as the definitive jazz album. Phelps is more than an incidental player. A constant presence in a production written and directed by Oliver Kaderbhai, Phelps plays a Davis acolyte trying to learn from the master, while the pressure of a record company advance looms over him. What was the secret ingredient, he wants to know, that turned Kind of Blue into a bestselling jazz album? How much did it depend on the collaborators, including John Coltrane and Bill Evans? Where did it fit into the musician's history of drug abuse and womanising? Now aged 32, the same as Davis at the recording in 1959, could he ever hope to achieve as much? Answering some of these questions – and evading others – is Benjamin Akintuyosi in the title role. With a raspy post-op voice gurgling up from deep in his throat, he plays Davis as sharp, forthright, hard to impress but passionate in his enthusiasms. His is a tale of musical obsession offset by a lack of money; creative innovation offset by racial prejudice. With his influences stretching to Stravinsky, Prokofiev and Debussy, as well as Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker and the street rhythms of Afro-Irish tap dance, Davis's musicality is more deeply felt than his Juilliard education might suggest. Kind of Blue, he says in the play, is 'my pain on a 78', an experiment he thought had failed. With projections by Colin J Smith adding to the period detail, the show is a fact-packed, reverent and loving testament to the complicated man behind a musical benchmark.
