Rick Harrison got a call from 2 of Donald Trump's sons after his own son, Adam Harrison, died from a fentanyl overdose.

A rep for the "Pawn Stars" patriarch tells TMZ ... Donald Jr. and Eric Trump reached out to Rick after learning of Adam's death. We're told the Trumps spoke to Rick on the phone to offer their condolences.

The Trump and Harrison families have a long relationship. Rick's been a vocal supporter of the former president for years -- at one point referring to himself as a "Trump guy."

When DT was in the White House, he and Rick met in September 2018 ... snapping a photo together with Rick's youngest son, Jake.

Even before the phone call, Don. Jr commented on Rick's tribute post to Adam, "I'm so sorry man."

TMZ broke the story ... Adam died last week from a drug overdose.

Rick told us fentanyl killed his 39-year-old son and added, "The fentanyl crisis in this country must be taken more seriously. It seems it is just flowing over the borders and nothing is being done about it. We must do better."

Un representante del patriarca del "El Precio de la Historia", le dice TMZ que Donald Jr. y Eric Trump llegaron a Rick después de enterarse de la muerte de Adam. Se nos dice que los Trumps hablaron con Rick por teléfono para ofrecer sus condolencias.

Las familias Trump y Harrison tienen una larga relación. Rick ha sido un partidario vocal del ex presidente durante años y en un momento se refirió a sí mismo como un "tipo Trump".

Cuando Donald estaba en la Casa Blanca, él y Rick se reunieron en septiembre de 2018 y se tomaron una foto juntos con el hijo menor de Rick, Jake.

Incluso antes de la llamada telefónica, Don. Jr comentó en el post de homenaje de Rick a Adam: "Lo siento mucho hombre".

TMZ publicó la historia, Adam murió la semana pasada de una sobredosis de drogas.

Rick nos dijo que el fentanilo mató a su hijo de 39 años de edad, y agregó: "La crisis de fentanilo en este país debe ser tomada más en serio. Parece que simplemente fluye por las fronteras y no se hace nada al respecto. Debemos hacerlo mejor".

Harry Connick Jr. Father Dead at 97 ... Controversial New Orleans D.A.

The father of singer-actor Harry Connick Jr. has died in Louisiana, according to the Associated Press.

Harry Connick Sr. passed away peacefully in his New Orleans home Thursday, the AP reported, although his cause of death was not disclosed. He was surrounded by his wife, Londa and two children, daughter Suzanna and his famous son Harry.

Connick Sr. was the New Orleans District Attorney for three decades, winning his first election in 1973 and unseating incumbent prosecutor Jim Garrison. He stayed as the city's D.A. for many years, getting reelected four times by developing biracial support among the city's politically powerful African American base.

After his retirement in 2003, Connick Sr. faced harsh criticism for allegedly hiding evidence that could have tipped the scales in favor of several defendants, who later had their convictions overturned.

In one case, John Thompson was exonerated for a murder he did not commit after 14 years on Louisiana's Death Row.

Thompson filed a lawsuit in state court against the New Orleans D.A.'s Office, accusing Connick Sr. of withholding key evidence that would have found him innocent at trial. The judge awarded Thompson $14 million, but the U.S. Supreme Court later overturned the decision by a 5-4 vote.

In 2014, Connick Sr. again came under scrutiny when a judge tossed out the 1990 murder conviction of Reginald Adams.

Adams was released from prison after serving 34 years. His attorneys proved that Connick Sr. kept vital evidence under wraps during his trial.

Later, Adams sued the D.A.'s Office, agreeing to a $1.25 million settlement.

Over the years, Connick Sr. kept silent about his controversial reign as D.A., but he finally defended his legacy in a 2012 interview with The Times-Picayune.

He was 97.

Tuvo un papel no acreditado en "xXx: State of the Union" protagonizada por Samuel L. Jackson y Ice Cube donde interpretó a la novia de Zeke, el papel del rapero Xzibit en la película.

Kurt Cobain Se filtra supuesta autopsia... Con detalles del suicidio

Kurt Cobain murió hace casi 30 años, pero un hombre ha estado siguiendo el caso desde entonces, y publicó lo que él dice corresponde al informe oficial de su autopsia, la que no se ha visto públicamente hasta ahora.

Un investigador privado llamado Tom Grant publicó este PDF en su cuenta de Twitter el miércoles, escribiendo: "Descarga una copia gratuita del informe de la autopsia de Kurt Cobain en: http://cobaincase.com/Cobain Autopsy.pdf  Copia y pega el link completo, incluyendo 'Autopsy.pdf' en tu navegador. Esta es la primera vez que este informe se hace público".

Por lo que parece, Tom tiene su propio sitio en el que ha ido registrando a modo de crónica su investigación sobre la muerte de Kurt Cobain, la que se remonta a 1994 cuando se quitó la vida. Parece que Tom Grant ha llegado a sus propias conclusiones sobre el asunto, pero lo más importante aquí es este documento que ha publicado.

Él dice que es el verdadero, aunque no explica cómo lo obtuvo. La autopsia de Kurt nunca fue publicada en su momento, debido a unas leyes del estado de Washington que impiden la divulgación de ese tipo de información. Aunque liberaron estos documentos a la familia.

De todos modos, puedes echar un vistazo al supuesto informe porque, vamos a admitir, si es real, sin duda es una lectura interesante para los fans de Nirvana o de otro tipo.

No vamos a entrar en el meollo del asunto porque es bastante gráfico, pero lo que vamos a decir es que el supuesto informe pretende confirmar lo que casi todo el mundo ha sabido acerca de su muerte durante año. Es decir, que murió trágicamente a causa de un suicidio y que utilizó una escopeta para ello.

También hay información sobre lo que los profesionales médicos encontraron en su cuerpo en el momento, y parece que había una mezcla de diferentes sustancias. Hemos tratado de verificar la autenticidad de este informe, pero los funcionarios del Condado de King no quisieron hacer comentarios y citaron nuevamente la ley de Washington.

Kurt dejó a su esposa, Courtney Love, y a su hija Frances Bean. Solo tenía 27 años.

Kurt Cobain Purported Autopsy Leaks Details About Suicide Death

Kurt Cobain died nearly 30 years ago -- but one man has been following the case since, and published what he claims is the official autopsy report ... unviewed publicly until now.

A private investigator named Tom Grant threw up this PDF on his Twitter account Wednesday -- writing ... "Download link for a free copy of the Kurt Cobain Autopsy Report at: http://cobaincase.com/Cobain Autopsy.pdf  Copy/paste the entire link, including 'Autopsy.pdf' into your browser window). This is the first time this report has been made public."

From the looks of it ... Tom has his own site that's been chronicling his investigation into the death case -- dating back to when Kurt took his own life in 1994 -- and it seems TG's come to his own conclusions about it all ... but the bigger point is this document he's published.

He claims it's the real deal, although ... he doesn't explain how he obtained it. Kurt's autopsy was never released back then -- and it all had to with some Washington state laws that prevent the disclosure of that type of info. They do release these docs to family though.

Anyway, you can take a look at the purported report yourself if you want ... because, we'll admit, if it is real -- it most certainly is an interesting read, for Nirvana fans or otherwise.

We won't get into the nitty-gritty of it all, because it's quite graphic ... but what we will say is that the alleged report purports to confirm what most everyone has known about his death for years -- namely, that he tragically died by suicide, and that he used to a shotgun on himself.

There's also info in here about what medical professionals say was found to be in Kurt's system at the time -- and it looks like there was a mix of substances. We've attempted to verify the authenticity of this report ... but King County officials wouldn't comment, and again cited the Washington law.

Porn Star Jesse Jane Dead at 43 After Apparent OD ... Cops Find Her, BF During Welfare Check

Jesse Jane -- a well-known porn star from the 2000s -- has died alongside her boyfriend, who also passed away, and it sounds like their death is drug-related ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us the famed adult film actress was found dead at a home Wednesday in Moore, OK -- where we're told police responded to this residence on a welfare check ... and when they got there, our sources say officers discovered both Jesse and her boyfriend, Brett Hasenmueller, deceased.

We're told the welfare check request was actually placed by Brett's employer, who hadn't heard from him in a few days. At the moment, we're told this appears to have been a drug overdose of some sort.

Unclear how long exactly Jesse and Brett might've been dead at the house, and an exact cause of death isn't known at this point either. An investigation is underway, and the Medical Examiner will make a final determination.

Jesse was one of the biggest porn stars in her day -- she started out with Digital Playground in 2002 ... and shortly thereafter, started to make appearances on Showtime's 'Family Business' -- and from there, her career in the industry took off.

She starred in a number of well-known adult films and adult film series -- including the 'Pirates' flicks ... notably the sequel in "Pirates II: Stagnetti's Revenge," which reportedly cost around $8 million to make and is considered one of the most expensive pornos to date.

Eventually, Jesse made her way over to Playboy ... serving as a host for a popular live show called 'Night Calls,' and even hosting Playboy TV's 'Naughty Amateur Home Videos.'

In 2009, she was part of a CNBC doc called 'Porn: Business of Pleasure' -- which showed what her life was like behind the scenes, and away from cameras.

She survived by her one son. Jesse was 43.

Jesse fue una de las mayores estrellas del porno en su época. Empezó con Digital Playground en 2002 y poco después empezó a hacer apariciones en "Family Business" de Showtime. A partir de ahí, su carrera en la industria despegó.

En una de las terroríficas escenas de la película, el personaje de Coward y sus compinches en la montaña sodomizaban a un hombre delante de su amigo, que estaba atado a un árbol en el bosque.

Melanie Safka muere a los 76 años

Melanie Safka, también conocida como "Melanie", ha muerto... según su equipo.

La triste noticia llegó por cortesía de la empresa de relaciones públicas de la cantante, la cual anunció su muerte el martes, pero no reveló ninguna causa oficial o las circunstancias exactas. Sus hijos también confirmaron su muerte a varios medios de comunicación.

Melanie es, quizás, más famosa por haber cantado en el Woodstock del 69, donde cantó como una de las pocas solistas femeninas de ese año y dejó una gran impresión en el público. De hecho, su experiencia en Woodstock inspiró más música.

Una de las canciones que acabó escribiendo a raíz de aquello fue "Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)", y al parecer tenía que ver con la gente que hacía exactamente eso en la histórica reunión.

Un par de años después de su gran concierto en Woodstock, Melanie lanzó un sencillo que la situó en el mapa, llamado "Brand New Key", el cual se convirtió en su mayor éxito.

A lo largo de los años, la canción apareció en diversos medios, sobre todo en "Boogie Nights", durante la audición porno de Dirk Diggler con Rollergirl. Si has visto la película, probablemente la recuerdes bien... dejó huella.

La canción también se escuchó en "Jackass 3-D", así como en programas como "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia", "The Bridge" y "Doctor Who" por no hablar de los programas nocturnos, además de "American Idol" y "The Voice". De hecho, fue muy popular a lo largo de las décadas.

Otros temas por los que será recordada... "What Have They Done to My Song Ma", "Ruby Tuesday", "The Saddest Thing", "Bitter Bad", "Ring the Living Bell", "The Nickel Song" y más.

Melanie Safka 'Brand New Key' Singer ... Dead at 76

Melanie Safka -- otherwise just known as "Melanie" -- has died ... according to her team.

The sad news came courtesy of the singer's PR firm, which announced her death on Tuesday -- but which didn't disclose any official cause, or the exact circumstances. Her children also confirmed her passing to various outlets.

Melanie is, perhaps, most famous for singing at the OG Woodstock back in '69 ... where she crooned as one of just a few solo female performers that year, and left quite an impression on the audience. In fact, her experience at Woodstock went on to inspire more music.

One song she ended up writing in the wake of that was 'Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)' -- and it apparently had to do with people doing exactly that at the historic gathering.

A couple years after her big Woodstock gig ... Melanie came out with a single that put her on the map, and it was called 'Brand New Key,' which went on to become her biggest hit.

The song ended up being featured across a number of different mediums over the years -- most notably in 'Boogie Nights' during Dirk Diggler's porn audition with Rollergirl. If you've seen the movie, you probably remember this well ... it left an impression.

'BNK' was also heard in 'Jackass 3-D' ... as well as on shows like 'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia,' 'The Bridge' and 'Doctor Who,' -- not to mention on late-night shows, plus 'American Idol' and 'The Voice.' Indeed, it was very popular through the decades.

Other tracks she'll be remembered for ... 'What Have They Done to My Song Ma,' 'Ruby Tuesday,' 'The Saddest Thing,' 'Bitter Bad,' 'Ring the Living Bell,' 'The Nickel Song,' and more.

Melanie continued working in and around music late into her life -- including meeting up with stars like Miley Cyrus and other contemporary folks/rock singers who carried on the torch.

Word is ... Melanie was actually working on a new album as recently as this month, one in which she'd be doing covers. She was 76.
