Disgraced NFL legend Antonio Brown blasted by fans for vulgar Jason Kelce post
Controversial ex-NFL star Antonio Brown has sparked outrage once again after sharing a vile message about Jason Kelce 's work for an autism charity.
Brown, who is currently wanted by police on an attempted murder charge after wielding a gun in a shocking brawl last month, has become notorious for his offensive social media antics since his NFL career came to an end in 2022.
And this week the Super Bowl-winning wide receiver has caused more contention by mocking Kelce about 'getting naked' to raise money for 'retarded kids'.
The Philadelphia Eagles legend was spotted at an Autism Foundation Event for his former team this week, where he went viral for turning up in a rainbow-themed hat, a crop top and speedos with the colors of the American flag.
Brown has received a backlash after quoting a picture of his outfit and writing: 'jason kelce getting naked for retarded kids but i'm the crazy one…'
One user replied to the former Tampa Bay Buccaneers player: 'chill out with that'.
Brown has become notorious for his offensive and insulting social media posts in recent years
'AB you can f**k right off,' said another before adding, 'the words retarded shouldn't be used here'.
While another commented: 'Kelce's a legend, no need to hate'.
At the start of 2024, Kelce's younger brother Travis described Brown as one of his 'favorite follows' on Twitter (now X) despite the controversy he frequently whips up.
After being referred to as one of his 'dopest crackers', Travis said on his and Jason's New Heights podcast: 'I appreciate you AB, man. Feels good to be one of the dopest crackers,' Travis replied, while laughing. 'I love that s***. He's one of my favorite follows on twitter, you've got to follow him.'
Miami-Dade County police are looking to arrest Brown on an attempted murder charge as a result of a shooting at a boxing event last month in Florida.
The Florida warrant was signed by a judge earlier this month and requires the former football star to post $10,000 bond and remain under house arrest pending a trial, according to court files provided to Daily Mail.
The Washington Post was first to report the existence of the warrant for attempted second-degree murder, which carries a penalty of up to 15 years behind bars in Florida.
As seen in shocking viral video from a celebrity boxing event in Miami last month, Brown appeared to pull out a gun as he ran back towards a skirmish. Shots are then heard off camera as frightened onlookers flee the area.
The 36-year-old was dragged to the floor by a man who, it later emerged, was a member of security trying to protect him.
No victims emerged at the time, so Brown wasn't arrested. Instead when viral video of the incident surfaced online, Brown claimed he was the victim of an attempted robbery: 'Regarding the boxing event that happened last night. I was jumped by multiple individuals who tried to steal my jewelry and cause physical harm to me.'
However, the other combatant told Daily Mail a different story last month. That man, Zül-Qarnaįn Nantambu, instead claimed the troubled former NFL star instigated the violent incident and personally fired the shots, possibly in response to a legal battle between the two in federal bankruptcy court.

North American Airlines targeted by cyberattacks
At least two North American airlines have been victims of criminal hackers recently as cybersecurity companies warn that a notorious cybercriminal group has been targeting the aviation industry. Westjet and Hawaii airlines both said in June statements that they are responding to cyberattacks. American Airlines also experienced a tech issue on Friday, though it's unclear if it was related or caused in any way by hackers. 'A technology issue is affecting connectivity for some of our systems and we are working with our partners to fully resolve the issue,' an American Airlines spokesperson said in a statement. 'Though we are experiencing delays as a result, we have not canceled any flights at this time.' Cybersecurity companies that work directly with companies hit by hackers usually refrain from talking about specific victims, citing nondisclosure agreements. But both Google and Palo Alto Networks said Friday that they have observed a particularly effective cybercriminal group, nicknamed Scattered Spider by the cybersecurity industry, that tries to hack companies involved in aviation. Scattered Spider is a loosely affiliated group of young, mostly English-speaking men who are extremely adept at sweet-talking their way into sensitive computer access at large companies. From there, they often hand that access to outside cybercriminals who install ransomware — malicious software that locks up computers, rendering them inoperable — and then demand an extortion payment. The group has been tied to attacks on Las Vegas casinos in 2023 and British department stores earlier this year. After Google warned that Scattered Spider was targeting American retailers, a cyberattack hobbled a top Whole Foods supplier, leading to empty shelves across the country. Charles Carmakal, the chief technology officer of Mandiant, Google's cloud security company, said in an emailed statement that it was tracking 'multiple incidents in the airline and transportation sector' where Scattered Spider had broken in. 'We are still working on attribution and analysis, but given the habit of this actor to focus on a single sector we suggest that the industry take steps immediately to harden systems,' he said. Details on the effects of the attacks on airlines are still sparse. A WestJet spokesperson told NBC News in an email that the company first noticed it had been hacked on June 13 and has made 'significant progress' to resolve it. Hawaiian Airlines said in a Friday filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that it discovered on Monday that it had been hacked and that 'Flights are currently operating safely and as scheduled.'

Furious Love Island row erupts as star tells rival to 'shut the f*** up'
Relationships between Love Island stars became fractured after Harrison decided to go to the Hideaway with another girl just one night after going on a date with his partner Love Island stars have kicked off in another fiery showdown, culminating in one furious Islander screaming at her love rival to "shut the f*** up". The relationship between Harrison and Toni became strained when he stunned the American girl by sneaking off to the Hideaway with another girl just 24 hours after their romantic date. In tonight's (June 27) episode of the ITV dating show, Helena told Harrison that she wasn't feeling a connection with Giorgio and decided to amicably end things with him. After hearing that she had become single, Harrison had a flirty conversation with Helena, which escalated into them sneaking to the Hideaway to have a discussion away from prying eyes. Harrison admitted that he wasn't feeling much chemistry with his partner Toni, complaining: "When we go to bed it's like a peck and roll over to sleep." The pair ended up sharing a passionate kiss on the swing before discussing the possibility of spending the night together in the private room. But when Harrison decided to break the news to his partner Toni, all hell broke loose. She had already been stewing while Helena and Harrison escaped to the Hideaway, calling the girl a "sneak b****". Toni was fuming to hear how quickly Harrison's head had been turned, and went on a tirade about his "f****** weird" behaviour, shouting: "We just went on a f***ing date yesterday and you're already going to the Hideaway with another girl!" She also accused Helena of smirking at her, knowing full well Toni has feelings for Harrison. It was then that Helena snapped back, telling Toni to "shut the f*** up". The incident sent shockwaves through the group, and Shakira decided to step in, telling Helena off for swearing at Toni. She then went on to put Harrison on blast for not being honest about his connection with Helena when he started dating Toni. Meg, Helena, and Remell were all surprised by the confrontation and went on to question why Shakira felt the need to insert herself into the love triangle between Harrison, Helena and Toni. This is just the latest controversy Toni has been involved in, as the American star was recently accused of "bullying" after an explosive row where her and Shakira seemingly teamed up against Emily. During the clash, Toni branded Emily 'Little Miss Sunshine', complaining: "I can't listen to her." Emily was upset to hear this conversation had taken place, and brought it up to the rest of the Islanders. This led to Shakira pulling Emily aside and accusing her of being "bitchy". This sparked Ofcom complaints from viewers who felt that Toni and Shakira were ganging up against Emily for no reason. Fans also took to social media to hit out at the 'mean girl' behaviour, with one writing: "What's with the bullying in this villa????", while another added: "So uncomfy to watch. All the girls just bullying one another, it's disgusting."

Sir Sean was the first actor to bring 007 to life on the big screen, starring in classics like Goldfinger and Diamonds Are Forever. He also bagged an Oscar for The Untouchables and was knighted in 2000 for his contribution to film. Adding another twist, former Rangers chairman Sir David Murray revealed that Connery secretly invested £1million into the club. Murray wrote in his book Mettle: "For years, Sean and I would share a catch-up call every weekend to chat through the football and we would inevitably kick off with Rangers. "After all, he had put £1million into the club which no one knew about at the time or even since. "I was raising £50million in 2004 and Sean asked if he could invest. "I told him that it was football, that there were no guarantees and he should get professional advice but he was adamant - he wanted in."
