Woman Gets Revenge Spends 15 Years Trolling Man ... Breaks Off Engagement After He Spit On Her Friend!

A woman says she spent 15 years getting payback from a man who spit on her friend long, long ago ... doing everything from spoiling shows to torpedoing his wedding.

TikToker Linda Solley Hurd says it all started a decade and a half ago at a comedy show, where one of her friends accidentally spilled a drink on the guy -- claiming he called her a "stupid fat b****" and spit on her for additional bad measure.

Linda was out for revenge! She found his Facebook page ... and after some digging, discovered his favorite shows were "The Walking Dead" and "Breaking Bad" -- 2 shows that you'd never want spoiled, right?

She decided to torture the dude by creating fake accounts and spamming him with spoilers as soon as each episode would drop.

It didn't stop with the Rick Grimes & Walter White rage ... she says she ended up in the same class as him not long after, getting more info on him and doing even MORE trolling.

Linda says she backed off for around 8 years ... but then learned the guy got engaged to a friend of a friend of hers, so she came out of trolling retirement for more revenge.

She gave the guy's fiancee the tea on what he had done to her friend, and apparently, that was enough for her to pull the plug on the wedding.

It's enough to make you stop drinking.

Jussie Smollett Timing Of Rehab Is Suspicious ... Says Osundairo Brothers

Jussie Smollett's timing to enter rehab is peculiar ... at least according to the Osundairo brothers, whose testimony was critical in convincing a jury to convict him.

Abimbola "Bola" and Olabinjo "Ola" Osundairo tell TMZ ... if Jussie really had a problem that required treatment from rehab, he could've checked himself in a long time ago ... but he waited until an appeals court was ready to rule on his conviction for faking a hate crime.

SUSPICIOUS TIMING
TMZ.com

Ola and Bola believe Jussie realizes his chances of having the conviction overturned are remote, and he may be trying to create sympathy so he serves time under house arrest and not in jail.

Jussie appears to be in rehab for substance abuse other than alcohol. He was spotted Monday with a fresh haircut ... clutching a "Narcotics Anonymous" book.

Bola had previously admitted he scored Jussie drugs but denied he ever sold them to the actor.

Regardless, the bros are hoping Jussie gets the help he needs ... but Bola adds, "Truth will set him free."

Fox 32 Chicago

As we reported, Jussie was sentenced to 150 days in jail after being found guilty of lying to police about an alleged attack by 2 Trump supporters in 2019 -- he was released shortly after he began serving his sentence, pending the appeal.

Since then, he's been spotted working on set in California and even hanging out with his former "Empire" costar Taraji P. Henson.

But, Jussie's rep told us the past few years have been extremely difficult for him ... and he has quietly been working on himself in an outpatient program.

President Biden Must Unite Against Hamas, Putin ... Can't Let The Bad Guys Win

101923-joe-biden-kal
PUT ASIDE OUR DIFFERENCES

President Biden is urging Americans to support the war efforts in the Middle East and Ukraine ... he says we all have to come together to help defeat terrorists and tyrants.

The Prez just made his case for Congress to approve billions more in military aid to help Israel fight Hamas and Ukraine fight Vladimir Putin ... selling Americans on the battle between good and evil.

In a rare speech Thursday from the Oval Office, Biden says Americans must put their petty differences aside and unite against the bad guys ... he says if the U.S. gives up the fight in Gaza and Ukraine, it will only embolden our enemies across the globe.

POTUS says he's going to ask Congress to approve more military aid to help fight wars overseas ... while reiterating he won't send American troops to fight Russia.

We haven't seen a lot of rah-rah speeches from Biden in office ... and he's pretty animated here, at least by his standards.

The Prez says it's all part of keeping up with America's calling as a global leader ... and he says the world is watching and counting on us to save the day.

Bottom line from Biden ... wars require money, but it's a "solid investment."

Gilbert Burns Kamaru & Khamzat's Only Common Opponent ... Breaks Down UFC 294 Fight

101823_gilbert_burns_kal
EXCITING MATCHUP
TMZSports.com

There's only one man breathing who has been in an Octagon with Kamaru Usman and Khamzat Chimaev -- Gilbert Burns -- and now "Durinho" is breaking down the highly anticipated UFC 294 co-main event!

37-year-old Burns joined Babcock on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs nightly on FS1) ... and having shared the cage with both title contenders, he told us where each man has the advantage.

For Khamzat, Burns says it's a plus he had a full camp -- even though he was training for a different opponent in Paulo Costa. Still, Usman didn't have any camp ... save for a few days before he left for Abu Dhabi.

When it comes to Kamaru, Gilbert believes his vast array of experience can't be discounted. Usman has been in virtually every situation ... and that can't be said for Chimaev (this will be his 7th UFC fight, and Kamaru's 18th in Dana's promotion).

Two of those fights came against Burns.

Kamaru and Gilbert's scrap was the main event at UFC 258 in February 2021 ... a fight Usman won by 3rd round TKO. The fight was very competitive, especially early, until KU took over, and ended things, retaining his title.

Khamzat and Gilbert fought a year and change later at UFC 273 in April 2022 ... a fight Chimaev won by unanimous decision. Despite the judge's scorecards, many believe Burns actually won the razor-close fight. It was without any doubt the first time Borz was pushed ... and while he certainly bent, he didn't break.

Burns breaks down much more about the looming fight ... touching on everything from speed and punching power to strength and ability on the ground.

Usman, who took the fight on 10 days notice, is a sizeable underdog ... around +250 at most sportsbooks (wager $100 to win $250, whereas you'd risk around $300 to win $100 on Chimaev).

Gilbert didn't exactly pick a winner -- at least not straight up -- but given his expertise, and the odds ... he had this to say.

"I think you should put a lot of money on Kamaru Usman," Burns said.

"That's the best bet. The fight's so close. I give him a little bit upset. 53% on Khamzat just because of the size and he did a full training camp but I think the fight is that close."

Guess Who This Lil' Pumpkin Turned Into!

Matthew McConaughey Granted 5-Year Restraining order Against Alleged Stalker

Matthew McConaughey has been granted a 5-year restraining order against a woman he claims has been bothering him for years ... most recently showing up at his book event.

A judge granted the order Thursday in court -- the woman was not present and asked for a continuance but was denied because the judge had already granted her more time and didn't find any good cause to delay the hearing further.

As we reported, Matthew claimed in legal docs that he was bombarded with "unhinged letters, emails, and frivolous lawsuits designed to lure me into court" by the woman since April 2022. She also allegedly believed the two were in a relationship.

The actor said things escalated last month when he learned she'd bought a ticket to a photo op event in Los Angeles for his children's book, "Just Because." Matthew claimed it was alarming she'd planned to travel hundreds of miles just to see him.

Sources close to Matthew say he knew children and families would be at the event, and he wanted to keep everyone safe ... so that's why he finally decided to file for the restraining order. Turns out, she did show and was promptly greeted by cops and escorted out.

Now she won't be allowed anywhere near Matthew for 5 more years. A rep for the actor had no comment on the court's decision.

Ali Krieger Insinuates Ashlyn Harris Cheated with Sophia Bush 'My Beyoncé Lemonade Era'

Welp, she didn't come out and fully say it ... but Ali Krieger just gave about as strong an indication as any her wife, Ashlyn Harris, cheated on her with actress Sophia Bush.

The Gotham FC star just took to Instagram, posting a series of shots of herself playing soccer with the caption, "Preparing for playoffs while in my Beyoncé lemonade era."

If you didn't know ... Beyoncé's "Lemonade" album chronicles the singer's relationship with her husband, Jay-Z, after she discovered he cheated on her. So ya, it appears Ali is the Beyoncé of the situation ... accusing Ashlyn of being the Jay-Z.

What's more, Ali's brother, Kyle Krieger, commented on the post with Beyoncé lyrics from the song "Don't Hurt Yourself" off "Lemonade" ... writing, "This is your final warning, you know I give you life. If you try this s*** again, you gone lose your wife." Kyle also wrote, "Love you and so proud of you!! These hoes ain’t loyal!! But me and your fans are!"

As we reported ... Sophia and Ali were spotted posing for pics, laughing and being extra flirty months before either filed for divorce.

101923_sophia_bush_1712303
GIRL POWER

The two participated on a panel in Cannes back in June, where Sophia was seen grabbing Ashlyn's arm, and Ashlyn later wrapped her arm around the actress in a photo.

Sophia didn't file for divorce from her husband, Grant Hughes, until August ... and Ashlyn only filed for divorce from Ali last month. Ashlyn and Ali have two small kids together. Ali posted a pic of herself with the kiddos ... so she hasn't missed a beat in the mom department.

We covered it all on the latest episode of The TMZ Podcast, available on all podcast platforms.

Lupita Nyong'o Announces Split with Boyfriend On Heels of Night Out with Joshua Jackson

Lupita Nyong'o and her boyfriend are no more, the actress just announced her split with Selema Masekela -- saying he's totally lost her trust -- and sharing the news on the heels of a night out with recently divorced Joshua Jackson and friends.

In a lengthy statement posted Thursday, Lupita starts out by sending her thoughts to those suffering around the world before diving into the breakup. She states, "At this moment, it is necessary for me to share a personal truth and publicly dissociate myself from someone I can no longer trust…"

She continues, "I find myself in a season of heartbreak because of a love suddenly and devastatingly extinguished by deception. I am tempted to run into the shadows and hide, only to return to the light when I have regained my strength enough for me to say, "Whatever, my life is better this way." But I am reminded that the magnitude of the pain I am feeling is equal to the measure of my capacity for love."

Lupita adds she's sharing the news to keep things open and honest with her social media followers, saying, "And so, I am choosing to face the pain, cultivating the courage to meet my life exactly as it is, and trusting that this too shall pass."

Lupita ends her message by saying she hopes it'll help someone else "experiencing the grip of heartbreak who is poised to try and escape from the pain and miss out on the wisdom that comes from it."

Fans became skeptical after photos surfaced of Lupita out with Joshua Jackson at a Janelle Monáe concert in Los Angeles Wednesday, wondering if she had moved on from Masekela.

Sources with direct knowledge told us Lupita and Jackson are just friends and attended the show with a group. However, it was soon noticed she'd also deleted all her photos with Masekela from her Instagram page ... raising more questions as to what happened.

Yung Bleu Arrested For Battery Victim Says He Body Slammed Her!!!

Yung Bleu is accused of attacking a woman, an incident at the center of an alleged custody dispute involving a 10-year-old child.

The Hall County Sheriff’s Office in GA tells TMZ Hip Hop ... officers responded to a 911 call from a woman on October 15 to a home, and when deputies arrived they say the woman told them Bleu (real name Jeremy Biddle) had shown up at the residence unannounced with the intent to take the 10-year-old child with him.

The woman says an argument ensued, and she told deputies Bleu picked her up and threw her to the ground, causing injuries to her right arm and hip.

She says the "You're Mines Still" rapper left with the child but returned shortly after ... and then left again. We're told the EMS crews evaluated the woman for any injuries, but she refused to be transported to the hospital.

Our sources say Bleu later agreed to meet with deputies in person and was subsequently arrested for misdemeanor battery. The 29-year-old was booked into the Hall County Jail just after 2:30 AM on Sunday morning and was released a few days later after posting $2,400 bond.

Joshua Jackson Night Out with Lupita & Friends Amid Divorce At Janelle Monáe Concert!!!

Joshua Jackson's not sulking at home because his wife filed for divorce -- in fact, it's quite the opposite, because he's out on the town with Lupita Nyong'o.

The "Dawson's Creek" star went out with the actress and a group of friends Wednesday night, hitting up the Janelle Monáe concert at the YouTube Theater in Inglewood, CA.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us Joshua and Lupita arrived together, but were among a group of about 9 or 10 people ... they've known each other for years, and there's nothing romantic about the night out.

As further proof, we're told there was no PDA, and Lupita's recently been linked to Selema Masekela ... though it appears she recently removed all traces of him on her Instagram, so there's a chance they're no more.

As for Joshua, TMZ broke the story ... British actress/model Jodie Turner-Smith pulled the plug on their marriage earlier this month, filing for divorce after 4 years of marriage.

Since the split, Jodie's been showing off her post-breakup hotness at a couple fashion shows over in Europe.

Now, Joshua's having some fun of his own with a little help from Lupita and Janelle.
