The actor who plays Spock in Star Trek, Zachary Quinto, is at the center of a controversy after an incident at a Toronto restaurant on June 2, when he was accused by the establishment’s owner of being disrespectful to the staff.

A post on Instagram reads:

Zachary Quinto – an amazing Spock, but a terrible customer.

The restaurateur accused the actor of yelling at his staff, bringing an employee to tears and making the restaurant’s customers uncomfortable.

The restaurant claims that Quinto yelled at staff like a child after they failed to respond to two text messages informing them that their table was ready. Quinto allegedly refused to believe that the empty tables in the dining room were not available for him despite being politely informed that they were reserved for other customers.

The actor, who was celebrating his 47th birthday on the day of the incident, had no comment on the event at the time of writing.

The owner’s message on Instagram is clear:

“Mr. Quinto, take your bad vibes elsewhere, we have many lovely celebrities joining us at Manita but you are NOT one of them!”

Donald Trump’s recent guilty verdict could result in foreign travel restrictions in several countries for the former president… including Canada!

Donald Trump Is Banned from 37 Countries as Convicted Felon, Including Major Allies Like Canada and U.K. https://t.co/tva2CjHU26

Donald Trump has been found guilty on all 34 counts brought against him in the highly-exposed case concerning his attempts to conceal bribe payments to Stormy Daniels during his 2016 election campaign.

This conviction represents a historic turning point, as Trump is the first former US president to be convicted of criminal offenses while seeking re-election. Moreover, it is unprecedented, as it could also mean the first time an American president has been banned from entering nearly forty countries, including several allies.

To protect their citizens and preserve national security, countries around the world, including G7 members such as the UK and Canada, impose strict entry criteria on individuals convicted of crimes.

These rules usually result in automatic denial of visas or entry permits for people with criminal convictions. They could affect Trump’s international travel, complicating both his personal and diplomatic trips in the event of re-election.

Trump awaits his sentencing, scheduled for July 11, when he could receive a sentence ranging from probation to four years in prison.

Last Saturday evening, Donald Trump officially joined TikTok, a platform he had considered banning in the past. The former president quickly amassed over four million subscribers within hours of signing up.

The first and so far only video posted by Trump on TikTok was filmed last Saturday at a UFC party in New Jersey, in the company of UFC president and fervent Trump supporter Dana White.

In the video, as Dana White announces Trump’s arrival on TikTok, the former US president expresses that it’s an honor for him to be present. He is seen greeting fans in the arena during the fight. Being on friendly territory, Trump received a warm welcome from the spectators.

Trump has visibly changed his stance since his election campaign, having initially issued an executive order to ban TikTok in the US on national security grounds during his presidential term.

In April, President Joe Biden gave ByteDance, the company behind TikTok, nine months to sell the app or risk seeing it banned in the US. This deadline means that any potential ban would only come into force after the next elections.

PETA has taken the bold step of recruiting adult film actress Stormy Daniels for its new campaign against cruelty in horse racing.

The move coincides with the actress’ recent return to the spotlight, with her involvement in Donald Trump‘s high-profile criminal trial. The animal rights group would therefore consider capitalizing on her momentary high profile.

The campaign, which promises to be provocative, could also target former President Donald Trump, as several planned slogans would refer to his alleged intimate relationship with Daniels. The awareness ads would feature slogans such as:

“Nobody likes a two-minute ride. Turn your back on horse racing cruelty“, humorously referring to Daniels ‘ claim that Trump had lasted only two minutes during their intimate relationship, a detail widely reported by the media.

PETA invited Daniels to take part in the project via a letter highlighting the devastating effects of horse racing.

The letter reveals alarming statistics about the high rates of injury and death at these events, with no fewer than 12 horses perishing at the Kentucky Derby last year alone.

Daniels was called to testify in the criminal trial of the former president, accused of falsifying business documents to conceal a $130,000 payment to the actress, in order to keep her quiet about their intimate affair in 2006.

PETA is convinced that, thanks to her recent visibility, Stormy Daniels could have a very important impact in the fight against animal cruelty in horse racing.

It’s the end of the Robert Pickton saga, as Canada’s notorious serial killer succumbed to his injuries in prison.

Pickton had recently been the victim of a fatal attack by another inmate.

Pickton had been convicted of murdering nine women in 2007, after being accused of killing 26.

He claimed to have killed 49, which may unfortunately be true, as the DNA of 33 women was found on his farm in Port Coquitlam, Vancouver, on the heels of his arrest.

Pickton was incarcerated at the maximum-security prison in Port-Cartier, Quebec.

He died at the age of 74.

During an appearance on BBC‘s The One Show, rock star Jon Bon Jovi expressed his joy at confirming the marriage of his son Jake Bongiovi to actress Millie Bobby Brown. The ceremony took place in the strictest privacy, in the presence of just a few family members.

When asked his opinion of the newlyweds, he said the couple were wonderful and that his son Jake couldn’t be happier. He also mentioned that the wedding had been an intimate, family ceremony, and that the bride was simply gorgeous.

According to sources, the wedding took place over the weekend of May 18. Shortly after the ceremony, the newlyweds were seen strolling through the Hamptons in their Ford convertible.

The couple announced their engagement in April 2023 and have been happily married since 2021.

It would seem that this is just the beginning of a great love story.
