Matthew Perry’s X account hacked by crypto fraudsters

A cyberattack was launched against the X account of Matthew Perry, who died in autumn 2023. Hackers broke into his account and the actor’s 1.5 million followers were directed to fake websites claiming to solicit cryptocurrency donations.

The hack is not only a blow to his family, it’s also a blow to the Matthew Perry Foundation. The latter provides support and assistance to people struggling with addiction.

The foundation has sent out a strong warning to the public to combat the misinformation spread by hackers. It has made it clear that the only official way to make donations is via its website, MatthewPerryFoundation.org.

The foundation sponsored by the National Philanthropic Trust posted a message on the hacked account to emphasize the urgency of the situation:

“We have received information that Matthew’s official X page has been hacked and is directing users to a fake site asking for cryptocurrency donations. Please do not share or donate money to this website!”

Matthew Perry fans are therefore urged to remain vigilant in the face of this fraud.

Are Al Pacino, 83, and Noor Alfallah, 30, back together?

Hollywood legend Al Pacino was spotted dining at Beverly Hills’ Cipriani with ex-girlfriend Noor Alfallah. The newly-parented duo made headlines for their new relationship, then their separation, and finally their legal battle over custody of their child, born in June 2023.

The duo was spotted twice in the space of a few days. The couple had shared a meal two days earlier at an Italian restaurant in the same neighborhood, sparking speculation that their relationship might be reborn.

It was the first time they had appeared in public since November of the previous year.

In April 2022, the couple made news, but remained relatively discreet. They did, however, surprise fans by announcing the arrival of Roman Pacino in June 2023. In November last year, the couple agreed to share legal custody.

Noor, however, has primary physical custody of their son.

The 83-year-old star, who already has three children with previous partners, saw Roman’s birth offer its share of surprises, in 2023!

72 firearms seized at legendary french actor Alain Delon’s home

French cinema icon Alain Delon has been caught up in controversy while recovering for a stroke, as his state of health is said to be very worrying.

The event is reminiscent of the characters he played on screen, as a collection of 72 firearms was confiscated from the octogenarian French actor’s home in Douchy-Montcorbon (about 135 km south of Paris). The house also contained a private shooting range and a cabinet filled with over 3,000 rounds of ammunition.

A court-appointed official visited Delon at his home and, after spotting an unlicensed firearm, immediately alerted the authorities. Prosecutor Jean-CĂ©dric Gaux stated that Delon did not have a valid firearms license, which poses a major legal problem for the movie star.

Alain Delon is going through a difficult period in the twilight of his life due to health problems, family conflict and these recent weapons discoveries, which only add to the picture.

Although he stepped away from cinema in the ’90s and made his last major public appearance at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival, where he was awarded the festival’s honorary Palme d’Or, Delon remains in the spotlight simply by virtue of his aura.

Getty Images

This event, however, is the sign of a complex story that unfolds off-camera…

Family problems and conflicts, as well as a precarious state of health, are undermining the now 88-year-old actor.

Fans are hoping for a positive conclusion for Delon and his legendary legacy.

Adam Ruzicka’s case is just sad

Adam Ruzicka, who was running out the second year of his two-year contract ($1.525 million), finds himself in a very difficult situation after filming himself last week with a bag of white powder. All indications are that the powder was cocaine.

The video of this 2017 fourth-round pick of the Calgary Flames went viral, prompting the Arizona Coyotes to place Ruzicka in the waivers in a bid to break his contract. The Yotes had claimed the 24-year-old center in the waivers on January 25…

Ruzicka has been “condemned” not only by the Arizona Coyotes organization, but also by the Slovak Hockey Federation, which will prevent him from representing his country at the next IIHF World Championship in May.

Ruzicka suddenly disappeared from social networks, only to return on Monday via Instagram to publish a brief message of apology. Basically, he indicated that he had “made a big mistake” and that he was “learning from his mistakes”, while indicating that he loves everyone.

Ruzicka’s NHL career includes 40 points, including 14 goals, in 116 games with the Calgary Flames and Arizona Coyotes.

Was Navalny about to be released just before his death?

Members of the entourage of the late Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny shared that talks were underway for his release in a prisoner swap before his untimely death.

On February 16, Kremlin opponent Alexey Navalny died in an Arctic penal colony, where he was serving a 19-year sentence on charges widely regarded as political.

A Navalny ally reveals that exchange talks were in the final stages. According to sources, Navalny and two US nationals detained in Russia were being considered in this proposed exchange.

Getty Images

This statement raises questions about the presumed composition of the list, given the incarceration of several Americans in Russia under contentious circumstances. It is plausible to consider the presence of Wall Street Journal journalist Evan Gershkovich, accused of espionage, and Michigan security official Paul Whelan, also convicted of espionage.

Getty images

Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed his willingness to negotiate, without mentioning any specific names, but apparently alluding to a Russian national detained in Germany and sentenced to life imprisonment since 2019.

Getty Images

No concrete evidence was provided to back up these claims. German authorities have refused to divulge any information about the Russian prisoner held and any possible exchange talks.

Don Lemon gets $24.5M from CNN and will be back… on X

Following his departure from CNN the previous year, Don Lemon is said to have reached a significant agreement with the network. According to TheWrap and Page Six, he would be entitled to $24.5 million, equivalent to his salary for the remaining three and a half years of his contract.

Don Lemon’s career at CNN came to an end after controversial comments about Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley, resulting in the termination of his long association with the network.

Despite his journalistic experience, Lemon made a controversial on-air remark suggesting that Nikki Haley, at 51, was no longer in her prime. The statement drew criticism, forcing Lemon to issue a public apology.

The incident proved decisive, leading to Lemon’s departure from the news channel. Her words also received considerable media coverage. This incident was not the first to create controversy within the CNN team, according to several sources.

Getty Images

Although TheWrap corroborated the settlement figures, CNN publicly disputed them. A CNN spokesperson said the network does not comment on the contractual details of its employees, but said the amount put forward was inaccurate.

Don Lemon’s relationship with CNN ended during a turbulent period for the network, notably with the departure of then CEO Chris Licht. Don was shocked that CNN management did not inform him directly of his dismissal.

WennCover

Don Lemon is reportedly preparing to make a comeback with his new project, The Don Lemon Show, soon to be launched on Elon Musk’s… X platform! Lemon described the upcoming program as “bigger, bolder and freer”.

He also praised Elon Musk’s X platform as a frontier of free expression.

So he joins Tucker Carlson in this bold direction, to say the least…

Getty Images

Lemon’s fans will be watching closely to see how the show unfolds on Platform X and whether it marks a shift in influence for the journalist whose media voice has been a mainstay for over a decade.
