Gwyneth Paltrow’s bizarre trial continues

It continues in Utah, as Gwyneth Paltrow’s bizarre trial continues, as she face a civil suit from a man who alleges he suffered serious injuries from a ski fall caused by the actress.

The man in question, Terry Sanderson, is asking for $300,000 in damages.

It was the turn of Gwyneth Paltrow’s two children, the famous Apple and Moses born from the union of the star with Chris Martin of Coldplay, to give their version of the facts, in the form of a written deposition, thus solidifying the defense of the actress and wellness magnate.

Between the two, it was her son Moses who had the most to say.

According to his testimony, he would have witnessed the accident firsthand, being just a little further away from his mother on the slope.

“I remember skiing with my instructor and briefly seeing the collision…” he states in his written statement, only to confirm Gwyneth’s version… that it was the man who ran into her instead of the other way around!

“I saw my mom and a person behind her…,” Moses continues.

Paltrow’s daughter, Apple, instead told her side of the story after the incident since she was not present at the time.

She was further down the hill.

Apple said in her statement that her mother was really disturbed by the event, hours after the collision.

Recall that the star is countersuing the man for a million dollars.

We continue to monitor the strange trial featuring Paltrow, a trial that some have even described as an episode of White Lotus on acid.

Aaron Hernandez’s brother arrested for vandalizing ESPN offices

Dennis “D.J.”Hernandez, the brother of Aaron Hernandez, reportedly experienced a bipolar episode less than three weeks before the cops got hold of him, according to information delivered by TMZ.

Dennis Hernandez was arrested aftera wild chase with the police on the roads of Connecticut.

“D.J.” is formally accused of throwing a brick and a handwritten note into the ESPN offices in Bristol, three weeks before the cops put him in handcuffs, while driving his silver Hyundai.

TMZ managed to get their hands on the documents from the authorities and they indicate that Hernandez’s mother states that her 36-year-old son was acting very strangely and that she thought he needed a psychological evaluation.

The document also states that D.J. was experiencing a bipolar episode… and that he drove that way in Connecticut in order to get arrested because he no longer wanted to stay with his mother.

In the end, Hernandez was committed to Bristol Hospital for an emergency examination and will have to go to court in early April for vandalizing infrastructure, in addition to several other charges against him.

Katy Perry accused of “mom shaming”, an American Idol candidate reacts

Pop singer Katy Perry, who is also a judge on American Idol, has been accused of mom shaming by fans of a contestant who auditioned this year, a young woman named Sara Beth.

The 25-year-old candidate and mother of three children has also denounced on TikTok shameful remarks against her during her audition in front of the singer, Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie.

Katy Perry would have, indeed, made a joke which would have passed badly with the televiewers…

When Sara revealed to the judges that she was a mother of three children, Katy Perry said with surprise that the young woman was lying down too much on a table, after she mentioned that she was going to faint if the pop superstar did the same.

The contestant took the opportunity to say that women should be cheering for each other instead of putting each other down, especially when it comes to being a mother.

@sarabethliebe

Well. I didnt think id be making this video, but i just wanted to say a couple things since im being flooded with articles and comments/messages about this.

♬ original sound – Sara Beth

Katy Perry is herself the mother of a young girl named Daisy, with actor Orlando Bloom.

Has she gone too far?

Mike Trout teams up with Tiger Woods for a big project!

One of the best baseball players in the world, Mike Trout, has teamed up with the best golfer in history, Tiger Woods, to build a championship golf course with 18 holes.

The course, which was Trout’s idea, will be built near his hometown of Millville and will be called Trout National – The Reserve.

Of course, Trout’s teammate in this venture couldn’t help but be Tiger Woods, as he was the Angels star’s favorite golfer as a youngster.

“I thought it would be pretty cool to reach out to him. We reached out to him, got a positive response when we mentioned it, and got his team on site. Once Tiger’s team came to the site, they loved it. It’s surreal. I mean, it’s Tiger!”,said Trout, according to Sports Illustrated.

Trout and Woods’ goal remains to open the course located in Vineland for the 2025 championship.
