John Legend Covers '21 Questions' Twitter Has Field Day w/ Jokes 😅
John Legend got onstage with 50 Cent to do his best version of Nate Dogg -- and while he certainly dished his own twist ... not everybody's feeling it, and they're letting him know too.
The singer celebrated his 45th birthday Thursday in NYC -- where he and Chrissy Teigen hired Fitty to perform, with the rapper doing his classic "21 Questions" live in front of a crowd. At first, it was just 50 Cent handling the hook and verses ... but JL eventually jumped in.
Very impromptu, John grabbed the mic from 50 and started belting out the chorus ... singing, "Girrrrl, you seem to love me now // Would you love me if I was down and out."
Looks like John kept singing while 50 continued to rap -- and in the moment, everyone seemed to receive it pretty well ... cheering on the bday boy and giving him props.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Unfortunately, it was a bit of a different reaction on the old bird app (now X) ... 'cause folks saw this clip and roasted the hell outta John -- some kinda meanly, others more lovingly.
You can hop into the trend to see what people had to say ... but essentially, the jokes amounted to John sounding more like a church crooner than an R&B stud with his take on the famous hit. As someone put it, "John legend made it sound like a negro spiritual."
Like we said, it's all in good fun ... but let's just say his version certainly took people aback.
No harm, no foul -- dude was just having fun, and Fitty seemed to appreciate the assist. Happy birthday, Mr. Legend ... here's to more soulful renditions in the years to come!

Angelina Pivarnick baila en un club de striptease mientras el dinero vuela
La estrella de "Jersey Shore", Angelina Pivarnick, sabe como pasar un buen rato. Supimos que se tomó el escenario de un club de striptease durante el fin de semana.
Pivarnick estuvo en 35 XXXV Gentlemen's Club el sábado por la noche en Jersey. Angelina no parecía ni un poco intimidada mientras bailaba, haciendo todos los pasos más atrevidos.
El público también parecía disfrutar del espectáculo mientras le llovían billetes a la bailarina de 37 años.
También es posible que la canción que sonaba en el club reconfortara a Angelina, teniendo en cuenta que era el tema de "Jersey Shore", "Crazy" de LMFAO.
Por supuesto, Angelina sigue siendo un elemento clásico en "Jersey Shore: Family Reunion", así que no es como si ella estuviera haciendo un cambio de carrera exactamente.
En cualquier caso, tanto ella como las decenas de asistentes disfrutaron la candente velada.

'Jersey Shore' star Angelina Pivarnick is no stranger to having a good time ... a skill she put to good use as she worked the stage at a strip club over the weekend.
Pivarnick took center stage at 35 XXXV Gentlemen's Club Saturday night in Jersey. Angelina didn't seem the least bit intimidated as she danced, getting down on all 4s and even working the pole.
The crowd certainly seemed to enjoy the show as well ... as singles rained down on the 37-year-old.
It's also possible the song playing through the club brought Angelina an added sense of comfort, considering it was the "Jersey Shore" theme song ... "Crazy" by LMFAO.
Of course, Angelina is still a staple on "Jersey Shore: Family Reunion" ... so it's not like she's making a career change.
Regardless, both she and the dozens in attendance seemed to enjoy themselves, even without the GTL.

Zak Bagans Un visitante se desmaya con una muñeca embrujada ... Video del escalofriante encuentro en el museo

Olvídense de Chucky, Annabelle e incluso M3GAN ... El Museo Embrujado de Zak Bagans tiene una muñeca aparentemente tan poseída que un hombre se desmayó después de encontrarse cara a cara con ella.
La estrella de "Ghost Adventures" le dice a TMZ que al mirar a los ojos de la muñeca Lilly, durante una reciente visita al museo, el hombre se desmayó y se golpeó la cabeza contra el mostrador, y tenemos el escalofriante momento en video.
Zak dice que el hombre recibió atención médica después de recuperar la conciencia y estaba bien, aunque inquietantemente no quiso hablar con nadie después ni mucho menos mirar a ninguno de los empleados del museo.
El hombre rápidamente huyó del lugar y no ha regresado desde entonces.
Un comerciante de antigüedades con sede en Oregón encontró por primera vez a Lilly bajo un viejo baúl de vapor y se la llevó a su casa, donde inmediatamente comenzó a tener pesadillas sobre una niña que moría de forma violenta.
Más tarde, cuando una niña visitó la tienda, le dijo a su madre que tuvo una conversación con "la niña dentro de Lilly, que le dijo que murió de una forma aterradora".
Zak viajó a la tienda para investigar y cuando la mujer que trabajaba detrás del mostrador sacó a Lilly del estante, inmediatamente se retorció de dolor abdominal, diciendo: "Debo lavarme las manos", repetidamente.
Eso fue suficiente para que Zak la pusiera en exhibición en su museo en Las Vegas, donde está claro que continuará su reinado de muñecas de terror.

ZAK BAGANS Haunted Doll Makes Guest Faint ... Video of Chilling Museum Encounter

Forget Chucky, Annabelle and even M3GAN ... Zak Bagans' Haunted Museum is home to a doll apparently so possessed, a man passed out cold after coming face to face with it.
The "Ghost Adventures" star tells TMZ that upon looking into the eyes of Lilly the doll -- during a recent visit to the museum -- the man fainted and bashed his head on the display stand -- and we've got the chilling moment on camera.
Zak says the man received medical attention after regaining consciousness and was OK -- although, disturbingly, he wouldn't speak to anyone afterward, let alone even look at any of the museum staff.
The man promptly fled the museum and has not returned since.
An Oregon-based antiques dealer first found Lilly under an old steamer trunk -- and took it back to his store where he immediately began having nightmares about a little girl dying a violent death.
Later, when a young girl visited the store, she told her mother she had a convo with "the girl inside of Lilly, who said she died in a scary way."
Zak traveled to the shop to investigate ... and when the woman working behind the counter took Lilly down from the shelf, she immediately doubled over with abdominal pain ... chanting, "I must wash my hands" repeatedly.
That was enough for Zak to put her up on display at his infamous Las Vegas museum ... where she's clearly continuing her doll-ightful reign of terror.

Ray Rice To Be Honored by Ravens ... Nearly 10 Years After DV Incident
Ray Rice will be honored by the Baltimore Ravens this weekend in front of fans -- this almost 10 years after he infamously knocked out his significant other in an elevator.
The ex-star running back has been tapped to be the focus of Sunday's "Legend of the Game" ceremony at M&T Bank Stadium ... where they'll formally recognize his achievements both on and off the field during and after his time with the team, which ended in 2014.
His professional accolades are unquestioned -- 3-time Pro Bowler and a SB champ, among other impressive stats -- but the obvious question ... is he worthy of a spotlight after his horrific domestic violence incident? The Ravens seem to think he's earned a 2nd chance.
The team's own article on this major news is quoted as saying ... "Rice is being recognized for the player he was, and for the redemption he has worked towards. Out of the public eye, Rice has been working on himself, his relationship, and within the community."
On that front, it's true ... Rice has become an incredibly philanthropic person in and around Baltimore since 2014 -- having contributed to a number of charitable orgs, speaking on behalf of important causes (preventing DV) and contributing mightily to local youths' lives.
Rice has also acknowledged how wrong he was for punching his then-girlfriend/now-wife, Janay Palmer, which left her completely unconscious. He now says, "I truly understand why I was let go and why so many hearts changed. But hopefully people can see where I'm at now. They say people can change, right? I am not the same person I was 10-12 years ago. That's just not who I am." He says he's trying to be the best version of himself in 2023.
Ravens Prez Sashi Brown adds ... "He was also consistently in the community, giving back. Importantly, after Ray's incident he owned it. On his own accord, Ray undertook critical work within himself and to bring awareness to and educate others on domestic violence. Nothing will change his past or make it right, but Ray's work has allowed him to atone for his actions and rebuild relationships personally and professionally, including with the Ravens."
Ray has returned to Baltimore before for a 'LOTF' ceremony -- notably in 2018, when he attended on behalf of others being honored and received a warm welcome from fans.
Of course, not everyone is thrilled about his latest return to the city -- calling into question celebrating him, regardless of the changes he's made/the countless apologies issued.

Duke's Mayo Bowl Fan Preps For Big Game ... With Massive Mayonnaise Chug!!!
One fan is preparing for the Duke's Mayo Bowl by glugging a bottle of mayonnaise -- and while we're sure his stomach won't be happy with him later today ... it's clear the vibes are high heading into the big condiment-themed contest!!
The college football fan performed the chug just hours before UNC vs. West Virginia kicked off the bowl game on Wednesday afternoon -- and if you've got a weak tummy, video from the scene might not be for you.
In the clips, you can see the dude was partying at the Duke’s Mayo Bowl FanFest near Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte when he grabbed a tube of mayo and got busy.
WATCH FOR A SURPRISE AT THE END. pic.twitter.com/Fb0G4bPoZd

The fella -- sporting a Nike hoodie and blue jeans -- took a couple shots and didn't flinch -- and the Duke's social media team was so impressed ... they blasted footage of his feat all over X.
While some were grossed out by it all, it did draw positive reviews, with one fan commenting, "I hope my alma mater gets to play in this bowl someday."
THE MAYO HAS BEGUN. pic.twitter.com/dQoUp56Jze

Of course, the mayonnaise guzzle will hardly be the most cringeworthy thing to come from today's bowl game -- after all, the winning coach is slated to be doused in the condiment!!
Who's hungry?!?!

Fantasia 'I'm Here' Belting It Out at Table Read ... For 'The Color Purple' Movie
Fantasia Barrino doesn't do anything half-ass, evident in the fact that she was singing her heart out during a table read for her new film ... just imagine how the real thing sounds.
The "American Idol" alum is part of the star-studded cast for "The Color Purple" -- which just got released into theaters today ... and which is stirring up a lot of Oscar buzz, not to mention a ton of praise for the musical performances -- including one from Fantasia.
She handles one big number in there, in particular, called "I'm Here" ... and on Sunday, her costar Colman Domingo posted a video from their final table read as a cast last year.
Check it out ... it's pretty incredible to see. Fantasia is fully in character as Celie, and she's belting out this song with everything she's got -- which makes for an awesome showcasing of her talent. You can tell the other actors were impressed, encouraging her along the way.
Fantasia has sung this song before ... as she played this exact role for the Broadway version of 'TCP' -- and now, she'll be doing it for the big screen -- which is pretty exciting to see.
The reviews for this film are pretty stellar, and it should make a splash at the box office.
Mind you, this version of "The Color Purple" is a full-blown musical ... so we're sure to see/hear a lot more performances like this one -- and the early word is, 'TCP' is a frontrunner for Best Picture at next year's Oscars ceremony since it's so freaking good.
Now, if only these leading ladies could earn what they're worth ... that would be GREAT!!!

Adoptan a un mapache y se convierte en viral
Una pareja de Washington parece haber adoptado extraoficialmente a un mapache cojo, lo que ha horrorizado a su hija... pero ha cautivado los corazones de miles de personas en Internet.
La presentadora de deportes de la radio de Seattle, Stacy Jo Rost, ha documentado durante todo el fin de semana a esta bola de pelo a la que llama "Pequeño Rick", en honor a su padrastro. Dice que, después de tener que sacrificar al perro de la familia hace dos años, Rick padre y su madre han recurrido al mapache para sobrellevar la situación.
My parents had to put their dog down two years ago and it’s been really hard on them. Unfortunately my stepdad,

Rick, has found the worst way to cope: feeding a one-year old raccoon and letting him live on their porch. His name is Little Rick aka Rickoon. And by “feeding” him, pic.twitter.com/H2gcEfHtjC
Básicamente, sus padres han recurrido a alimentar a Ricky. El mapache de un año va a su propiedad con regularidad para comer y al parecer tiene un horario establecido.
Stacy publicó un montón de videos capturando los hábitos alimenticios del pequeño Rick, incluyendo algunos intentos apresurados de pedir más bocados y arañando la ventana en lo que parece un intento de entrar. ¡Incluso intentó morder el dedo de Stacy a través del cristal de la ventana!
The amount of people supporting LR. I know you’d try to pet him. He’d bite all your fingers AND your toes too. pic.twitter.com/H9wphdMacd

Stacy dice que sus padres encontraron a Rick cuando era pequeño y se dieron cuenta de que su pata trasera estaba herida. Por lo tanto, parece que empezaron a atenderlo (tomando cierta distancia) y ahora, el pequeño viene a su casa como un lugar de consuelo y comida.
Como dijimos, se puede decir que Stacy no es una gran fan de esto, señalando que es, de hecho, un animal salvaje y no una mascota, a pesar de que su mamá y papá parecen estar tratándolo como uno.
Curiosamente, si te metes en la tendencia del pequeño Rick en Tuiter... verás una buena cantidad de gente apoyando a los padres adoptivos humanos y argumentando que Stacy está siendo dura.
Little Rick has a messed up back leg and they saw him when he was a little raccoon baby and didn’t think he’d make it. So now they’re attached. I got Rick an outdoor camera to watch LR, which I can disclose here because Rick doesn’t know how use phones or computers

Pero ella se mantiene firme y le advierte a todo el mundo que no se fíe del pequeño Rick, por muy tierno que sea.
'Little Rick' Crippled Raccoon Adopted by Humans ... Goes Viral for Antics!!!

Basically, her folks have resorted to feeding Ricky here ... and the 1-year-old raccoon comes over to their property regularly for his meals, which are scheduled and on the dot, it seems.
Stacy posted a ton of videos capturing Little Rick's eating habits, including some hasty attempts at asking for more morsels ... by scratching at the window in what looks like an attempt to come inside. He even tried biting at Stacy's finger through the window pane!

Stacy says her parents found Rick when he was tiny, and they noticed his back leg was injured. So, it sounds like they started to attend to him -- from a bit of a distance, though -- and now ... LR comes by their place as a place of comfort and food, limping at that.
Like we said, you can tell SJR is not a huge fan of this ... pointing out it is, in fact, a wild animal and not a pet -- even though her mom and dad seem to be treating it like one.

Funny enough, if you hop into the Little Rick trend on Twitter ... you'll see a fair amount of people actually supporting the adoptive human parents, and arguing Stacy's being harsh.
But she's sticking to her guns -- warning everyone not to trust Little Rick, cute as he may be.

Un nuevo video muestra a los pasajeros a bordo de un crucero varado
Pasajeros aterrorizados se preparan para el impacto en un nuevo video del MS Maud, un crucero acosado por vientos rápidos y enormes olas que causan un corte de energía.
Se puede ver a los turistas, vestidos con chalecos salvavidas, agarrándose a las mesas y echando miradas horrorizadas por la habitación mientras las olas, algunas de unos 18 metros de altura, sacuden el crucero.
Una persona le grita a los demás que se suban al suelo del barco, alegando que es más seguro que sentarse en las mesas.
El video también muestra como las violentas olas levantan al barco en el aire antes de dejarlo caer en picada en el cañón entre las olas.
El MS Maud perdió potencia el jueves en el Mar del Norte, al este de Gran Bretaña y al norte de Dinamarca.
Los más de 260 pasajeros recibieron la orden de agacharse tras el apagón. Los barcos de rescate daneses llegaron al lugar 40 minutos después.
Al final, el crucero llegó a Bremerhaven, Alemania, y un pasajero declaró al New York Post que la compañía de cruceros le pagaría los vuelos de los pasajeros a Londres, el destino original del barco.
Una escena aterradora, pero con final feliz
Stranded At Sea Cruise Ship Passengers Brace For Impact ... After Huge Wave Causes Ship To Stall
Terrified passengers brace themselves for impact in new video from the MS Maud, a cruise ship beset by fast winds and huge waves causing a power outage.
The would-be vacationers, clad in life jackets, can be seen gripping tables and flitting horrified glances around the room as waves, some reportedly 70 feet tall, buffeted the cruise liner.
One person yells out to others to get on the ship's floor, claiming it is safer than sitting at the tables.
The video also shows the insane waves lifting the ship high into the air before letting it plummet into the canyon between waves.
The MS Maud lost power Thursday in the North Sea, east of Great Britain and north of Denmark.
The more than 260 guests were ordered to hunker down after the outage occurred, and Danish rescue ships were on the scene just 40 minutes later.
The cruise ultimately made it to Bremerhaven, Germany and one passenger told the New York Post the cruise line would pay for the passengers' flights to London, the ship's original destination.
A scary scene for sure, but one with a happy ending.

North Dakota Lawmaker Arrested For DUI, Makes Xenophobic Comments Caught On Body Cam Video
A North Dakota politician put his foot square in his mouth after he went on a xenophobic and homophobic rant while he was being arrested – and filmed! – for driving drunk.
Republican lawmaker Nico Rios was cruising around the district he represents in Williston the night of December 15, when police on patrol saw his car swerving and pulled him over.
The officers walked up to Rios behind the wheel and turned on their bodyworn cameras, leading to the shocking 21-minute encounter that has now gone viral.
Check out the footage ... the cops ask a series of questions to Rios who is slurring his words and getting caught in lies, falsely claiming at one point that he doesn't have an open beer bottle in his car.
Rios also gives an expired registration to the officers, who order him out of his vehicle for a field sobriety exam.
During the test, Rios becomes agitated and starts hurling threats at the officers, accusing them of "f—king picking on me" and promising they will regret it because of who he is.
Rios then rejects a request to take a breathalyzer from one of the officers, who promptly arrests him, placing him in handcuffs.
On the ride to the police station, Rios starts antagonizing the British-born officer, poking fun at his accent and claiming his country is being overrun by "f---king migrants and refugees."
In the stationhouse, Rios makes a homophobic remark to the officer, who informs his supervisor about the litany of derogatory comments from the lawmaker.
Rios was charged with DUI and refusing to provide a chemical test. After he was released from custody, Rios posted a statement on X, expressing his deep sorrow and regret to the people of his district for making a "mistake." He did not issue an apology to the officer he offended.

Volcán en Islandia Nueva erupción ilumina el cielo ... Obliga a evacuar
Islandia está desplegando un espectacular y peligroso poder volcánico, con la erupción de un nuevo volcán que está lanzando nubes de lava al cielo después de semanas de un aumento en la actividad sísmica.
Se declaró estado público de emergencia el lunes, luego de que el volcán Grindavík explotara justo al sur del Aeropuerto Internacional de Keflavik y la ciudad capital de Reykjavík. Las imágenes muestran cómo las rocas explotan hasta 300 pies en el aire.
La erupción creó una fisura de 2,5 millas, provocando que una corriente de lava fluyera a través de las ciudades aledañas. Cientos de metros cúbicos han corrido a través de la península de Reykjanes.
La Oficina Meteorológica de Islandia situó el momento de la erupción a las 10:17 PM, después de vigilar de cerca la actividad sísmica en la zona por un tiempo.
El flujo se ha desacelerado desde su pico durante la noche del lunes y la intensidad de las erupciones de lava han caído de 300 a 100 pies.
Sin embargo, las zonas evacuadas están todavía fuera de los límites y las autoridades permanecen en alerta máxima, con expertos locales advirtiendo que es posible que varias grietas se abran en el suelo.
El Presidente de Islandia Guðni Th. Jóhannesson ha confirmado que no hay víctimas producto de la erupción, solo grandes daños a los edificios.
ICELAND Volcano New ERUPTION LIGHTS UP SKY ... Forces Evacuations
Iceland is putting on a spectacular, and dangerous, display of volcanic power ... as the eruption of a new volcano throws plumes of lava in the sky, following weeks of increased seismic activity.
A public state of emergency was declared as the Grindavík volcano exploded Monday ... just south of the Keflavik International Airport and the capital city of Reykjavík, and video footage shows molten rock exploding up to 300 feet into the air.
The eruption created a 2.5-mile fissure, which sent a stream of lava flowing through the surrounding towns ... while hundreds of cubic meters spewed across the Reykjanes peninsula.
The Icelandic Meteorological Office listed the time of eruption at 10:17 PM ... after closely monitoring seismic activity in the area for a while.
The flow has slowed since its peak on Monday evening ... and lava fountains have fallen from 300 to 100 ft.
However, evacuated areas are still off-limits, and authorities remain on high alert ... with local experts warning it's possible several more cracks could open in the ground.
Iceland President Guðni Th. Jóhannesson has confirmed there are no casualties from the eruption -- only extensive damages to buildings.

Colorado Craziness Video Shows Horrific SUV Crash ... Multiple People Seriously Injured
A group of Colorado thrill seekers were filmed hanging out of an SUV that was speeding backwards before it flipped over and crushed the passengers, seriously injuring them.
Saturday's disturbing crash in the parking lot of The Market in Colorado Springs was all caught on video, which was posted on social media.
Check it out ... five people are sitting in the open windows of the black SUV, which, suddenly, starts driving fast in reverse.
The vehicle does a donut before tumbling over on its side and squashing the passengers against the asphalt.
Freaked-out bystanders -- who were shooting cell phone footage -- ran to the aid of the victims. One person carries away a woman who appears to be unconscious. Other good Samaritans try to lift the SUV off the victims trapped underneath it.
Colorado Springs PD officers responded to the scene and arrested the driver, Marisol Wentling, for vehicular assault. Wentling was not injured.
As for her victims, several were rushed to local hospitals to be treated for "serious, life-threatening injuries," according to a police statement.
We've reached out to the PD for an update on their conditions. So far ... no word back.
