Taylor Swift Gasps For Air During Sizzling Hot Concert In Brazil

GASPING FOR AIR

Taylor Swift was seemingly gasping for air during her sweltering hot concert in Brazil, freaking out some of her fans.

The pop superstar performed for hours in nearly 100-degree heat Friday night at Estadio Olímpico Nilton Santos stadium in Rio de Janeiro -- and the video shows how much the soaring temperature impacted Taylor.

Keep in mind, this was the same night one of Taylor's fans, Ana Clara Benevides, died right before the show kicked off.

Video of Taylor’s scary moment was posted to X … it starts with Taylor wrapping up a song with her back to the packed crowd. She then turns to the audience, huffing and puffing as if she’s struggling to breathe. The 12-second clip ends with Taylor closing her eyes.

Her worried fans responded to the video post, sharing their concerns. One wrote, "OMG… this breaks my heart in so many levels. She’s so professional but watching her like this, my best wishes go to her.”

Another pointed out, “She is only 33 and in incredible physical shape. That she was struggling that much is really scary," while a third person remarked, “Taylor was struggling to breathe as well!!”

Due to the extreme temps, Taylor announced she was postponing her Saturday concert in Rio because the “safety and well-being of my fans, fellow performers, and crew has to and always will come first.”

Benevides complained she wasn't feeling well right before Friday night's show began, and was reportedly taken to a hospital where she died. The official cause of death hasn't been determined.

As of now, Taylor is scheduled to perform Sunday night in Rio, but, obviously, those plans could change as well.

Speaker Mike Johnson Releases Jan. 6 Tapes ... Protesters Casually Strollin'

cruisin' on through

The new Speaker of the House dropped a huge batch of videos recorded inside the Capitol on Jan. 6 -- and some conspiracy theorists will, no doubt, say they prove confirmation bias.

Speaker Mike Johnson just released a massive cache of surveillance footage from inside the Capitol that was shot on that fateful day -- and you can imagine, it shows varying moments of activity as demonstrators broke in and stormed the premises.

calm and orderly

Yes, there are instances when rioters are casually strolling through the grounds once they get inside ... and in some cases, they're actually walking right past police officers and other security personnel -- which, obviously, isn't a great look for law enforcement.

You can even see some elected officials shuffling through the halls ... and they're not necessarily sprinting as they're being escorted by armed guards. Par for the course -- a ton of conservative personalities are latching on to this as evidence Jan. 6 wasn't actually an insurrection ... but rather, a peaceful protest that's been blown out of proportion.

CAPITOL CLASH
Storyful

While those conservatives might think their point is made in this video dump -- fact is, there's even more video -- which we've all seen -- depicting the utter chaos and violence that actually unfolded.

There are countless videos of rioters squaring up and fighting cops outside -- with batons being swung, and mace being sprayed. Also not in dispute, Capitol Police officers lost their lives in the line of duty that day ... and one protester, Ashli Babbit, was shot and killed inside. So, this wasn't some kumbaya get-together.

It's interesting that Rep. Johnson -- who's known to be very Donald Trump-friendly -- was the one who ended up releasing these. Previous Speaker Kevin McCarthy had a lot of pressure on him to do the same before he was ousted, but ultimately never did.

Johnson says he decided to release the footage to let the American people decide for themselves. Something tells us folks are already in their corners on this issue though ... and no one's crossing over.

Formula One Grand Prix Race Car Spits Out Flames On Vegas Strip ... After Loose Drain Cover Debacle

111723-kal
ON FIRE!!!
TMZ.com

A Formula One car turned into a flamethrower during a practice run in Las Vegas Thursday night, spitting out a stream of fire that was caught on dramatic video ... forcing officials to cancel the rest of the session.

Check out the footage, obtained by TMZ Sports ... several F1 cars, including a Ferrari, are zooming around the track built along the Vegas Strip for Saturday's celebrity-studded Formula One Grand Prix. Journey, J Balvin, John Legend, Keith Urban and Steve Aoki are all set to perform at the three-day event.

In the 19-second clip ... Carlos Sainz's Ferrari roars down the track past The Cromwell Hotel and, suddenly a burst of flames shoots out from the back of the race car before it disappears from our view. One stunned onlooker reacts by yelling, "Wooooooo!"

It was later revealed the incident was caused when Sainz drove over a loose drain cover, causing serious damage to his car.

Ferrari was forced to replace Sainz's chassis, engine and battery ... which sparked a 10-place grid penalty for the race.

Thankfully, no one was injured ... and the police and fire departments did not have to respond to the scene.

Sainz sounded off on the track conditions in a social media post Friday morning ... saying, "Eventful and long day. We seem competitive and I’m looking forward to tomorrow.

"However, the situation of the manhole damage and the 10-place penalty is not acceptable, but we’ll deal with it."

Road workers were brought in to repair a manhole cover on the track, causing the second practice run to be delayed.

Kelly Oubre Jr. Video Shows NBAer Wincing In Pain ... After Getting Hit By Car

WALKING WOUNDED
TMZSports.com

TMZ Sports has obtained footage of Kelly Oubre Jr. just minutes after he was struck by a vehicle over the weekend ... showing the Philadelphia 76ers forward struggling to walk as he entered his apartment.

As we previously reported, the 6'7" hooper was involved in a hit-and-run outside his Philly residence on Saturday ... suffering a broken rib and injuries to his hip and leg after a silver car swiped him with a side-view mirror.

Sources tell us Oubre returned home shortly after being hit ... and when his wife saw him in serious pain, she called 911.

In the Ring camera footage, Oubre is heard telling Shylynn he was hit by a car as he rolled a bicycle into his residence.

We're told the 27-year-old was taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital ... where medical professionals began treatment.

Our sources say a couple hours after the incident, officials interviewed Oubre to get some information on what went down.

At the time, Oubre claimed the incident happened near 15th and Spruce Street .... but on Wednesday, police said there was no surveillance video to support his claim.

Sources tell us two factors play into this -- one being Oubre was medicated and not in the right state of mind when he spoke with cops ... the other being he's fresh to the area, as he just moved to Philly in September and doesn't know his way around town just yet.

All that considered, our sources say it was challenging for Oubre to pinpoint the exact location of the accident ... so he tried his best.

There's no official timetable on Oubre's recovery ... although some reports claim he could be back in action as early as the end of the month.

Oubre's teammates have rallied behind him in his absence -- most notably, Tyrese Maxey dedicated his 50-point performance to the former Kansas standout following the accident.

MUERE UN TURISTA SE HUNDE UN BARCO EN LAS BAHAMAS

Una terrible tragedia azotó a un bote que transportaba pasajeros a la isla Blue Lagoon en las Bahamas. El bote comenzó a hundirse en aguas agitadas, cobrando finalmente la vida de una mujer norteamericana.

Las aterradoras imágenes capturadas por la cámara muestran a los pasajeros en pánico, intentando aferrarse a lo que sea para salvar sus vidas. El bote se inclinó peligrosamente a un lado.

En las terribles imágenes, se puede ver a los turistas sumergirse en el océano turbulento para alejarse del bote mientras se hunde. La policía informó la desaortunada muerte de una mujer de 75 años de edad oriunda de Colorado.

El nombre de la mujer no ha sido expuesto ni se conoce la causa exacta de su muerte.

En un TikTok compartido poco después del desastre, una turista estadounidense llamada Kelly Schissel se refirió a los acontecimientos, diciendo que cuando un miembro de la tripulación corrió a cubierta para conseguir un chaleco salvavidas se dieron cuenta de que algo estaba mal.

De hecho, los miembros de la tripulación estaban en tal histeria que no podían darle instrucciones a los pasajeros sobre qué hacer, pero Kelly dijo que todos se las arreglaron para ponerse sus chalecos salvavidas y pasar al nivel superior de la embarcación.

Cuando vieron a una persona saltar a las aguas agitadas, todos siguieron su ejemplo. Algunos lucharon por mantener la cabeza fuera del agua, incluso con sus chalecos salvavidas puestos.

Los barcos de rescate llegaron pronto para reunirlos a todos, con Kelly entrando al barco de un pescador que ¡acababa de pasar! Eso sí es estár en el lugar correcto en el momento adecuado.

Una vez en la Laguna Azul, Kelly dijo que tomó el asunto en sus propias manos, dirigiéndolos a todos a un pabellón cercano para hacer un recuento.

Al parecer, otros dos pasajeros fueron trasladados a un hospital para recibir tratamiento.

El barco de propiedad privada —parte de un paquete turístico para las líneas de cruceros que llegan a las Bahamas— zarpó de Paradise Island en Nassau a las 9:20 AM, cuando comenzó a encontrar olas inesperadas menos de dos horas más tarde.

Tragedy's struck as a ferry carrying cruise ship passengers to Blue Lagoon Island in the Bahamas began to sink in choppy waters ... ultimately claiming the life of an elderly American woman.

Terrifying footage caught on camera shows panic-stricken passengers clinging on to the two-decker for dear life on Tuesday as it perilously tilted to one side ... with some people appearing to have fallen to one side of the lopsided vessel.

THE SCARY SINKING

In harrowing scenes, tourists were also seen plunging into the turbulent ocean to get away from the sinking ferry ... and police say that led to the death of a 75-year-old woman from Colorado.

The woman's name hasn't been released, nor has her cause of death.

In a TikTok shared soon after the disaster, fellow American tourist Kelly Schissel rehashed the events ... saying it was only when a bawling crew member ran up on deck for a life jacket they realized something was amiss.

In fact, crew members were in such hysterics that they couldn't instruct passengers on what to do -- but Kelly said they all managed to put on their life jackets and move to the boat's top level.

It was when they saw one person jump into the wavy waters, they all followed suit ... but some struggled to keep their heads above water even with their life jackets.

Rescue boats soon arrived to gather everyone to safety ... with Kelly getting into a fisherman's boat that just happened to be at the right place at the right time.

Once at the Blue Lagoon, Kelly said she took matters into her own hands, directing everyone to a nearby pavilion for a head count.

Two other passengers were reportedly taken to a hospital to get treatment.

The privately-owned boat -- part of a tour operator's package for cruise lines docking in the Bahamas -- set sail from Paradise Island in Nassau at 9:20 AM when it started encountering unexpected waves less than 2 hours later.

Recuerden, un torso humano fue encontrado en un cubo de basura la semana pasada por una persona que estaba viviendo en la calle en Encino, y como informamos, el video obtenido por TMZ muestra a Haskell Jr. y algunos trabajadores llegando a su casa y trasladando bolsas de basura hacia un camión.

Uno de los trabajadores dijo que les dijeron que las bolsas estaban llenas de piedras, pero ellos comenzaron a sospechar y comprobaron que una de ellas contenía partes de cuerpos. Luego de ello, decidieron devolverle las bolsas a Haskell y llamaron al 911.

Al percatarse de que iba a tener que lidiar con los cuerpos por su cuenta, también obtuvimos imágenes que muestran a Haskell Jr. tirando lo que parece ser una bolsa pesada en un contenedor de basura, el mismo donde fue encontrado el torso al día siguiente.

Remember, a dismembered human torso was found in a garbage bin last week by a homeless person in Encino ... and as we reported, video obtained by TMZ showed Haskell Jr. and some day laborers arrive at his home and carry out garbage bags into a truck.

One of the workers said they were told the bags were full of rocks, but the crew got suspicious ... and checked one of the bags, which the worker said contained body parts. They returned the bags to Haskell and called 911.

Realizing he needed to handle the body disposal on his own, we also obtained footage of Haskell Jr. Tuesday afternoon, dumping what appeared to be a heavy bag into a dumpster -- the same dumpster the torso was found in the following day.

Samuel Haskell Jr. fue captado por una cámara desasiéndose de lo que muy bien pudo haber sido el torso de un cuerpo que la policía encontró en Encino (California), el miércoles. TMZ tiene el video que se puede relacionar perfectamente con el video de Haskell con bolsas idénticas en su casa.

Hemos obtenido nuevas imágenes que muestran a Haskell en un estacionamiento de Encino la tarde del martes en su Tesla blanco. Está estacionado y abre la maleta trasera para agarrar lo que parece una bolsa de basura grande y pesada. Haskell lucha mientras se la coloca en el hombro y luego la arroja al contenedor de basura.

La policía rodeó la zona y rápidamente arrestaron a Haskell por asesinato. Su esposa, Mei, y sus padres están desaparecidos. No está claro de quién era el torso, pero sabemos que era de una mujer.

Así es como se conectan todos los puntos. TMZ publicó un video que mostraba a Haskell en su casa el martes por la tarde, donde se le veía llevando grandes bolsas de basura, tan grandes que necesitó la ayuda de otros hombres no identificados.

Los trabajadores volvieron a casa de Haskell unos minutos después de marcharse, devolvieron las bolsas y las colocaron en su entrada y devolvieron el pago. A continuación, fueron a la policía.

Samuel Haskell Jr. was caught on camera dumping what very well may have been the torso of a body police found in Encino, CA Wednesday ... and TMZ has the video, which aligns almost perfectly with video of Haskell with identical bags at his home.

We've obtained new footage which shows Haskell pulling into a parking lot in Encino late Tuesday afternoon in his white Tesla, casually parking by a dumpster and opening up the back to grab what appears to be a large, heavy garbage bag. Haskell struggles as he places it on his shoulder, and then hurls it into the trash bin.

We obtained two clips -- one from a slightly closer angle, and another capturing the scene from a little further away.

This is the same location, and apparently the same garbage bin where a homeless person found a dismembered human torso in a strip mall parking lot early Wednesday.

Cops swarmed the area and quickly arrested Haskell for murder. His wife, Mei, and her parents are all missing. It's unclear whose torso it was ... but we know it was a woman's.

Now here's how the dots all connect. TMZ posted video earlier today showing Haskell at his home Tuesday afternoon as some day laborers drive up and then help Haskell carry big garbage bags -- seemingly identical to the one he later tossed -- into a nearby truck.

Pro-Palestine Berlin Protest Man's Door Pounded ... By Protester After Israeli Flag Wave

A German man had his front door pounded on by an angry pro-Palestine protester after the guy flew an Israeli flag from his balcony ... this as a demonstration was going on outside.

Check out this wild video that was taken and posted by a man named Finn Wandhoff, who lives in Berlin and who was watching a massive pro-Palestine rally take place right outside his apartment Saturday evening. It seems he decided to voice his own view symbolically.

X / @finn_wandhoff

Finn says he flew a flag of Israel from outside his window -- a moment he says precipitated this door-pounding by minutes -- and it seems somebody outside saw it and didn't like it.

Here's the sequence of events, per Wandhoff -- he says he was flying the flag and playing Israel's national anthem from his apartment before the huge crowd came by ... which he claims spurred police to come up to his unit and demand he stop, but he didn't.

Once the protesters rolled through, Wandhoff says he again flew the flag ... which he says then led to this man running upstairs and demanding entry. He says he then called cops to report this but alleges the police told him he was being "clearly provocative" here.

It's unclear if Wandhoff is Jewish or not, but the fact this happened in Germany wasn't lost on those who saw his footage ... and as a result, some have invoked Nazi comparisons.

Finn dice que ondeó una bandera de Israel desde fuera de su ventana, lo que precipitó que alguien le golpeara la puerta por minutos, y parece que alguien de afuera lo vio y no le gustó.

Esta es la secuencia de los hechos, según Wandhoff. Él estaba ondeando la bandera y tocando el himno nacional de Israel desde su departamento antes de que llegara la multitud. Afirma que llamaron a la policía para que se detuviera, pero no lo hizo.

Una vez que los manifestantes pasaron, Wandhoff dice que ondeó nuevamente la bandera, lo que llevó a este hombre a subir corriendo por las escaleras y exigir que lo dejaran entrar. Dice que entonces llamó a la policía para informar lo que pasaba, pero que esta le dijo que estaba siendo "claramente provocador".

No está claro si Wandhoff es judío o no, pero el hecho de que esto ocurriera en Alemania no pasó desapercibido a quienes vieron sus imágenes, y como resultado, algunos han invocado comparaciones nazis.

Chilling video shows alleged murderer Samuel Haskell Jr. enlisting several men to remove heavy bags from his home -- bags the laborers say contained body parts, and which police suspect are the remains of Haskell's missing wife and family.

TMZ obtained this surveillance video recorded Tuesday, Nov. 7 outside Haskell's home in Tarzana, CA. The ominous scene begins at 3:54 PM, as a man in a white shirt -- who witnesses have ID'd as Haskell -- waves down a blue moving truck to stop in front of his home.

Three minutes later, 2 men are seen lugging what appears to be a large, black garbage bag down the driveway and leaving it on the pavement. Then, at 3:58 PM, 2 other men are seen loading a 2nd garbage bag into the bed of a white truck -- then they do the same with the first bag.

Haskell walks away from the group, back up his driveway, and 2 of the men get in the blue truck ... as the white truck with the bags drives away.

Haskell -- the son of former Hollywood super agent, Sam Haskell Sr. -- waits 7 minutes, and drives away in his white Tesla at 4:08 PM, heading in the opposite direction of the truck.

The laborers have told NBC4 in L.A. they only got a block away before they decided something was not right. They say Haskell hired them to move 3 bags he said were filled with rocks, but the men found them to be soft and soggy. So, they pulled over to look inside, and discovered human body parts in one bag ... including a belly button.

That's where the surveillance video picks up ... at 4:15 PM the white truck is back in front of Haskell's house, because the men say they returned the bags and Haskell's money.

You can see Haskell meet them in the driveway ... hands are extended, and it does seem like money is exchanged. The laborers say they left all 3 bags with Haskell, and at 4:17 PM, the truck pulls away again.

Finally, at 4:22 PM ... Haskell drives off again in his Tesla, but what he didn't know is that the laborers went straight to police to report what they'd seen.

As we reported, Haskell was arrested in the evening of Wednesday, Nov. 8 ... after a homeless person discovered a dismembered body earlier that day, stuffed in a bag and left in a dumpster. The dumpster is a little more than 6 miles away from Haskell's home.

Additionally, TMZ has learned police -- after hearing what the laborers reported -- went to the neighborhood Tuesday night to interview some of Haskell's neighbors, and asked if they'd seen any garbage bags left in his driveway.

Haskell's wife, Mei Haskell, and her parents are both missing ... and, although police haven't identified the remains yet, the operating theory is they're the remains of Mei and/or her parents.

Police say they've found blood at the Haskell home, and evidence that leads them to believe there was a murder committed there.

Haskell Jr.'s father was once one of Hollywood's biggest power players -- repping celebs like George Clooney, Dolly Parton, Ray Romano, Kirstie Alley and Tony Danza. He's now president of Magnolia Hill Productions, which has produced several of Dolly's Christmas specials and TV movies.

It's unclear if police have seen the surveillance video yet -- but, obviously, it will be a major piece of evidence.

Un escalofriante video muestra al presunto asesino Samuel Haskell Jr. alistando a varios hombres para eliminar unas bolsas pesadas de su casa, bolsas que los trabajadores dicen que contenían partes del cuerpo y que la policía sospecha corresponden a los restos de la desaparecida esposa de Haskell y su familia.

TMZ obtuvo este video de vigilancia grabado el martes 7 de noviembre fuera de la casa de Haskell en Tarzana, California. La ominosa escena comienza a las 3:54 PM, con un hombre de camisa blanca, que los testigos han identificado como Haskell, haciendo señas a un camión azul para que se detenga en frente de su casa.

Tres minutos más tarde, se ve a dos hombres arrastrando lo que parece ser una bolsa de basura grande y negra por el camino de entrada que dejan en el pavimento. Luego, a las 15:58, se avista a otros dos hombres cargando una segunda bolsa de basura en el maletero de un camión blanco, a continuación hacen lo mismo con la primera bolsa.

Haskell se aleja del grupo, de vuelta a la entrada, y dos de los hombres se meten en el vehículo azul mientras el camión blanco con las bolsas se aleja.

Haskell, hijo del ex superagente de Hollywood, Sam Haskell Sr., espera siete minutos y luego se aparta en su Tesla blanco a las 4:08 PM, en dirección opuesta al camión.

Los trabajadores contaron a NBC4 en Los Ángeles que solo se alejaron una manzana antes de darse cuenta de que algo no andaba bien. Dicen que Haskell los contrató para mover tres bolsas que, dijo, estaban llenas de rocas, pero los hombres las encontraron blandas y empapadas. Así que pararon para mirar que había dentro y descubrieron partes de un cuerpo humano en una bolsa, incluido un ombligo.

Ahí es donde el video de vigilancia vuelve a registrar, a las 4:15 PM. que el camión blanco regresa en frente de la casa de Haskell, con los hombres devolviendo las bolsas y el dinero a Haskell.

Se puede ver que Haskell se reúne con ellos en la entrada. Tiene las manos extendidas y parece que el dinero es intercambiado. Los trabajadores dicen que le dejaron las tres bolsas y a las 4:17 PM, el camión se fue de nuevo.

A las 16:22, Haskell se fue en su Tesla, pero no se percató que los trabajadores decidieron ir directamente a la policía para informar lo que habían visto.

Como informamos, Haskell fue detenido la noche del miércoles 8 de noviembre luego que una persona que vive en la calle descubriera un cuerpo desmembrado en una bolsa, que se fue en un contenedor de basura. El contenedor de basura está a un poco más de 6 millas de distancia de la casa de Haskell.

TMZ ha indagado que después de escuchar a los trabajadores, la policía fue al barrio el martes por la noche para entrevistar a algunos vecinos, a quienes les preguntó si habían visto alguna bolsa de basura en su entrada.

La esposa de Haskell, Mei Haskell, y sus padres están desaparecidos y aunque la policía aún no ha identificado los restos, la teoría operativa es que estos corresponden a Mei y/o sus padres.

La policía dice que encontraron sangre en la casa Haskell y evidencia que les lleva a creer que se cometió un asesinato allí.

El padre de Haskell Jr. fue una vez un importante jugador de Hollywood, representando a celebridades como George Clooney, Dolly Parton, Ray Romano, Kirstie Alley y Tony Danza. Ahora es presidente de Magnolia Hill Productions, que ha producido varios especiales de Navidad de Dolly y películas para televisión.

No está claro si la policía ha visto el video de vigilancia todavía, pero obviamente será una prueba importante.

Haskell Jr. está detenido bajo fianza de 2 millones de dólares.

El Dr. James Kempton dijo a BBC News que él y todo su equipo consiguieron el impresionante registro en "la última tarjeta SD que miramos, de la última cámara que recogimos, en el último día de nuestra expedición", dijo el científico. Hecho el punto, la criatura vaya que hizo una entrada.

Dice que todo su equipo estaba "eufórico" cuando encontraron el viejo temporizador, y con razón. Se cree que el Echidna, cuyo nombre científico es Zaglossus attenboroughi, llamado así por el famoso biólogo Sir David Attenborough ha evolucionado desde la época de los dinosaurios, hace unos 200 millones de años.

No está claro cuando se extinguió exactamente el mamífero, o eso pensaban los científicos, pero la única evidencia de la criatura fue recogida en 1961.

Anótalo como una gran victoria para la ciencia, aunque más vale que se aseguren de que haya al menos dos de ellos, ¡si es que el equidna realmente va a volver!

Attenborough Echidna Rare Mammal Not Extinct After All!!! Captured on Remote Cam

Scientists are celebrating a remarkable discovery -- the Attenborough Echidna can't be extinct, as they thought it was, because it was caught on freakin' camera!!!

Check out the extremely rare find, captured on a remote camera placed by Oxford University researchers on an expedition to Indonesia. The footage shows the long-beaked creature just strolling in the woods.

Dr. James Kempton told BBC News he and his whole team got the impressive footage on "the very last SD card that we looked at, from the very last camera that we collected, on the very last day of our expedition." Point being ... the critter made one hell of an entrance.

He says his whole team was "euphoric" when they found the old timer, and rightfully so ... the Echidna -- scientific name Zaglossus attenboroughi, named after famed biologist Sir David Attenborough -- was thought to have evolved in the time of dinosaurs, about 200 million years ago.

It isn't clear exactly when the spiky mammal went extinct -- or so scientists thought -- but the only evidence of the creature was collected in 1961.

Mark this one down as a massive win for science ... although, they better make sure there are at least 2 of 'em, if the echidna's really making a comeback!
