Did this Chiefs player lied to his fans?

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman, who was at home watching his family from the house due to an abdominal injury, tried to fool the internet into believing he smashed his TV.

During the dramatic game where the Los Angeles Chargers led for most of the night, emotions were so high, Hardman broke his huge TV.

However, his team was able to wrestle the game away from the Chargers thanks to the magic of Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce late in the game.

With 31 seconds left in the game, Mahomes threw the ball to his partner Kelce for the final touchdown of the game, which ended 30-27 in favor of the Chiefs.

In short, the 24-year-old allegedly tried to make it look like he broke his screen, but according to web investigation pros, it was a YouTube app that was used instead.

The image he tweeted looks a lot like a video you can put on your TV to make it look like it’s broken.

As of this writing, the NFL player has not yet confessed…

Brigitte Bardot defends the “massacred” deers of Longueuil

Brigitte Bardot did not hesitate to join the mayor of Longueuil, Catherine Fournier, to stop the “massacre” of deer in Michel-Chartrand Park, reports the QMI Agency.

Bardot remains a very vocal activist, she once opposed the seal hunt, we remember.

In a letter from her foundation earlier this week, she expressed concern that the deer in Longueuil would be “massacred.

According to Mrs. Bardot, hunters are planning to create chaos in a “family” place, where 100 deer, including babies born last spring, will be “massacred in the heart of a beautiful environment”.

About this potential deer hunt, it would be done with a crossbow, a hunting technique that is banned in France because it is very dangerous. Especially since the animal is not guaranteed to be killed in the immediate future.

Let’s remember that the city of Longueuil wishes to authorize crossbow hunting in Michel-Chartrand Park with the objective of killing a hundred deer to avoid overpopulation.

Gisele Bündchen is in love!

Gisele Bündchen is already strutting around with a new man, namely Joaquim Valente, a jiu-jitsu teacher!

The new lovebirds were spotted in Costa Rica shortly after Tom Brady and Bündchen officially divorced, showing that she may have had other good reasons for leaving the 45-year-old quarterback, reports Page Six.

The new lovers ate at Koji, located in the province of Puntarenas, in the company of the two children of Tom and Gisele, Benjamin and Vivian.

Many questions are still open.

For example, was this love affair initiated while Gisele was still with Tom?

We do not know exactly the details of this new love story, but note that Gisele and Valente have already met in 2021 for a shoot with the magazine Dust.

Tom doesn’t seem to be affected by this sad chapter anymore though, since he imposed himself on Sunday morning (in Germany) leading the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to victory against the Seattle Seahawks 21-16.

Brady said he was willing to make some sacrifices to keep his relationship with Gisele alive, while the Brazilian supermodel felt she had given him enough time to change the situation, but to no avail.

9000$ for Taylor Swift tickets… gone!

Sydney Wallace is a Taylor Swift fan and she claims she was charged $9,000 for tickets she didn’t end up getting.

Wallace had to wait for eight hours to get to the SeatGeek checkout, which did not allow her to complete her purchase, and yet charged her… 14 tickets!

“I waited in line for Taylor Swift tickets for 8 hours today. And SeatGeek charged me 14+ times for tickets I never got to buy! So now my bank accounts (on multiple cards) are frozen, I’m broke, he (the fraudster) found out about my accounts, and I did NOT get tickets,” the 25-year-old tweeted.

Evidently, Wallace contacted SeatGeek to demand a refund for tickets she paid for, but didn’t get, and was told by someone that she would have to wait 3-5 days for a refund.

According to the information she was forwarded, the fee should clear in 24 hours, and she will be able to get tickets at the public sale on Friday (new date rescheduled by SeatGeek).

Recall that last week, when ticket sales for her “Eras Tour” opened, Swift went ballistic as Ticketmaster ran into a ton of trouble when the market opened.

Let’s hope that this situation, which is very unpleasant for Taylor Swift, will be resolved quickly!
