Fan throws sex toy onto court during key moment in WNBA game
Article content 'Even so, when you have a lime green item just kind of fly … that's when the whistle should be blown because as a player you want to feel protected, you want to know what's going on, and then there's confusion on the final possession,' fellow announcer Morgan Ragan said. Article content The game was paused as police and arena security removed the object, wrapping it up in a towel. Article content 'Oh, my gosh, okay, inappropriate,' Ragan said after cameras zoomed in and identified what had been tossed. 'Get 'em out of here, whoever it is.' Article content Article content Some players were seen looking shocked after learning about what had been thrown from the crowd while others were shown sharing laughs. Article content The incident comes after another bizarre incident during a game on Sunday. Article content During the third quarter of a game in Washington, Phoenix all-star Kahleah Copper was attempting to get open on an inbound play by running around a screen set by a teammate. But just as she got loose from her defender, her wig came off and hit the floor – much to the bewilderment of players, referees, fans and commentators alike.

Katy Perry superfan from Alberta basks in newfound fame, puts Medicine Hat on the map
Braiden Palumbo takes a selfie with popstar Katy Perry onstage during the Vancouver leg of her Lifetimes Tour as shown in this handout photo. (THE CANADIAN PRESS/Handout) A Katy Perry superfan is basking in newfound fame after a video of him meeting the pop star garnered nearly a million views online. Perry, who is in Canada performing several shows on her Lifetimes Tour, invited concertgoer Braiden Palumbo on stage during a stop in Vancouver. Palumbo travelled all the way from Redcliff, Alta., to attend the show. Now, his neighbours are recognizing him from the cute interaction, which somewhat schooled Perry on small-town Prairie life. 'People come into the gas bar all the time and they don't even buy anything, they just want to take a picture with me,' he said on Tuesday. 'Growing up in a small town, only the people in the small town know who you are.' In the video, Palumbo tells Perry he is from Medicine Hat, which is a small city in southeastern Alberta that's very close to his hometown. The animated pop star looks bewildered and plays to the cheering crowd, saying she needs 'to study better geography.' 'Your hats are filled with medicine? Well you know for us Americans you are our medicine hats, we love it,' she says jokingly. From there, Perry was in for another lesson when the 20-year-old reveals he works at a Co-op gas bar. 'I'm sorry but you guys are way advanced, what is a Co-op gas bar?' she asks. When the fan explains it is just a gas station, Perry goes on to say 'it sounds really fancy.' Perry, who also made news this week after dining out with former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau sparking romance rumours, is known for interacting with fans during her extravagant performances. Palumbo said he is grateful to have had that shared moment with Perry, and to put a small town on the map. 'I am a huge Katy Perry fan for as long as I can remember,' Palumbo said. When Perry began calling people on stage, Palumbo didn't think he would be one of them. That was, until she started walking towards audience members who were further back in the section he was in. 'I knew that that was my moment to shine,' he recalls. He said all he could think of doing to get her attention was raise his arms and scream will full force. 'I was just screaming, 'Pick me, Pick me!' You need to notice me,' he recalls. The video was originally shared by @ on TikTok and has garnered over 750,000 views since being posted four days ago, leaving fans desperately questioning if Perry will visit Medicine Hat in future tours. Palumbo has also since changed his profile picture on Instagram to a selfie of him with Perry. This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 30, 2025. Fatima Raza, The Canadian Press

Candace Cameron Bure reveals her experience with disordered eating
Candace Cameron Bure is seen here at the 31st Annual Movieguide Awards Gala held in Los Angeles in February 2024. River Callaway/Variety/Getty Images/File via CNN Newsource Candace Cameron Bure is opening up about having an eating disorder. The 'Full House' star shared during a recent episode of her podcast that she developed an eating disorder at the age of 18. 'It was binging and purging,' she said, going on to identify herself as 'a bulimic.' Bulimia nervosa is a cyclical condition in which someone binges and then compensates with purging behavior such as vomiting or taking laxatives, according to National Eating Disorders Association. Cameron Bure added that she still refers to herself with that identifier, given that the thoughts never leave her even though she's no longer actively purging. 'So I still need the tools to say, 'No, Candace, we're not doing that,' she said. 'It's so ridiculous, and yet I'm still thinking about it.' Cameron Bure got her start as a child star on 'Full House' and said that her parents kept her and her siblings on diets to prevent them for being criticized for their weight. 'I don't want to be too fat compared to other actors,' she said on her podcast. 'My parents never wanted a producer to come up to me and say, like, 'We need your child to lose weight,' so let's do everything preventative.' Unfortunately, the focus on healthy eating and exercise backfired, Cameron Bure shared. 'That very thing just shaped the way I looked at my body, which was like, 'Oh, it's not good enough the way it is right now,'' she said. Her husband, former hockey player Valeri Bure, has 'been this incredible support' for her even as she struggles with her feelings. 'I feel like a broken record. I'm 49 years old and I'm like, why do I think about this so much? Why does it even matter so much?' Cameron Bure said.
