RIP

Mientras que la muerte de Matthew Perry conmocionó a sus fans y amigos cercanos, su ex novia Maeve Quinlan no está en ese grupo, ya que dice que todos lo fueron perdiendo poco a poco durante años debido a la adicción.

La actriz de "The Bold and the Beautiful" salió con la estrella de "Friends" desde 2002 hasta 2003, y le dice a Soap Opera Digest que él estuvo 100% sobrio durante todo el tiempo que estuvieron juntos, lo que ella llamó el mejor regalo para ella y un respiro para Matthew de sus demonios personales.

Maeve dijo que fueron inseparables durante su año juntos y que él apreciaba estar con ella porque no consumía drogas.

While Matthew Perry's death absolutely floored his fans and close friends, his ex-girlfriend Maeve Quinlan is not in that group, as she says they'd all been losing him to addiction ... little by little for years.

"The Bold and the Beautiful" actress dated the "Friends" star from 2002 until 2003 ... telling Soap Opera Digest he was 100% sober the entire time they were together, which she called the greatest gift for her, and some respite for Matthew from his personal demons.

Maeve said they were inseparable during their year together, and he appreciated being with her because she wasn't using drugs.

La afligida familia de Riley Strain ha ordenado una segunda autopsia privada después de que la primera no encontrara nada sospechoso. Han surgido nuevos detalles sobre su muerte.

El joven de 22 años no tenía sus botas de vaquero, pantalones o cartera cuando fue sacado del río Cumberland dos semanas después de desaparecer del bar de Luke Bryan en Nashville el 8 de marzo.

Pero Chris Dingman, un amigo de la familia que sirve como su portavoz, le dijo a NewsNation que Riley llevaba todos esos elementos la noche que desapareció, lo que les lleva a creer que su muerte fue más que accidental.

Riley Strain's grieving family is ordering a second private autopsy for him after the first found no signs of foul play -- this after new details emerged about his death.

The 22-year-old didn't have his cowboy boots, pants or wallet when he was pulled out of the Cumberland River 2 weeks after disappearing from Luke Bryan's Nashville bar on March 8.

But, Chris Dingman, a family friend serving as their spokesperson, told NewsNation Riley was wearing all those items the night he went missing ... leading them to believe his death was more than accidental.

Vanessa Bryant surprised the UConn men's basketball team with some Kobe kicks ahead of its Sweet 16 matchup with SDSU ... gifting the unreleased "Italian Camo" Protros to the squad -- and the players loved them!!

The Huskies got the amazing gifts on Wednesday, some 24 hours before they take on the No. 5 Aztecs in Boston as part of the NCAA tournament's next round.

In video posted by the team, you can see the Big East champs had no idea they were going to get the presents from Vanessa ... and the players went nuts when they officially got to unwrap the Nike sneakers -- which won't be available to the public 'til April.

"I just wanna say thank you to Vanessa Bryant and the Bryant family. We appreciate you," senior guard Hassan Diarra said after getting his pair. "We're gonna show out in the NCAA tournament!"

The shoes have been dubbed the "Italian Camos" ... and they were created to pay tribute to Kobe Bryant's Italian background.

This, of course, is not the first time UConn's gotten some custom Bryant footwear ... during last year's tourney, the team -- which is part of the Nike Mamba Program -- was gifted custom Huskies Kobe 8 Protros.

Remember, Kobe always had a soft spot for UConn ... he was famously a big fan of the school's men's and women's basketball teams when he was alive -- as was his daughter, Gianna, who went to several games with Dad during her life.

Joe Lieberman, who was Al Gore's running mate in the disputed 2000 election, is dead after suffering a fall at home.

The former U.S. Senator's family says he fell while at home Tuesday night, and he passed away on Wednesday.

Joe was first elected to the Senate, representing Connecticut, in 1989 ... and he retired in 2013. He was a Democrat for most of his political career, but declared himself an Independent late in his political career.

Bob Barker's iconic estate is hitting the market ... giving one lucky buyer the chance to own a slice of L.A. history -- that is, if they have close to a few million to plunk down.

The late "Price Is Right" icon -- who died in August last year at 99 -- owned the 6-bedroom, 6-bath Spanish Colonial Revival-style estate in the Hollywood Hills for a whopping 50 years ... and it's now up for grabs at a cool $2,988,000.

Bob's pad here has a major legacy behind it -- as it's considered one of the first (if not THE first) houses in Hollywood ... and it's been dubbed the Original "Outpost." General Harrison Grey Otis -- the founder of the L.A. Times -- had it to himself back in the 1880s.

Un hombre de California está compitiendo con el hombre de Florida por el titular más extraño de la semana, porque fue arrestado por caminar y aparentemente masticar una pierna humana.

El nombre del tipo es Rosendo Tellez, y fue arrestado el viernes cerca de Bakersfield -en una pequeña ciudad llamada Wasco- después de que testigos lo vieron paseando por la ciudad con lo que parecía ser una extremidad inferior completa.

Funcionarios del Condado de Kern dicen que la pierna fue tomada ilegalmente de la escena de un accidente de tren esa mañana, cuando Téllez la robó después de que un hombre fue atropellado y muerto en la estación de Amtrak en la ciudad. No mucho después de eso, los ciudadanos dicen que vieron Tellez caminando con la pierna en la mano.

A California man is competing with Florida Man for weirdest headline of the week -- 'cause he got arrested for walking around and apparently chomping on a human severed leg.

The dude's name is Rosendo Tellez. and he got busted Friday out near Bakersfield -- in a small town called Wasco -- after eyewitnesses saw him strolling through town with what looked to be an entire limb that was attached to a person just earlier in the day.

Kern County officials say the leg was illegally taken from the scene of a train accident that morning -- when Tellez is alleged to have swooped it up after a man was hit and killed at the Amtrak station in town. Not too long after that ... citizens say they spotted Tellez holding it.

Parece que los sospechosos del atentado terrorista contra la sala de conciertos de Moscú fueron maltratados durante su detención: estaban gravemente magullados y apenas conscientes durante su primera comparecencia ante el tribunal.

Los presuntos terroristas fueron fotografiados el domingo en un tribunal ruso, donde aparecieron con cortes y magulladuras en sus rostros hinchados mientras se enfrentaron a cargos de terrorismo tras la matanza del viernes. De hecho, Saidakrami Rachabalizoda -un sospechoso de 30 años- entró al tribunal con una venda alrededor de la oreja y varias heridas en la cara.

Dalerdzhon Mirzoyev, de 32 años, también fue fotografiado con un ojo morado mientras se sentaba detrás de un plexiglás para comparecer ante el tribunal. También parecía tener los restos de una bolsa de plástico alrededor de su cuello.

Looks like the suspects in the Moscow concert hall terror attack are getting roughed up while in custody -- they were severely bruised, and barely conscious during their first court appearance.

The suspected terrorists were photographed Sunday in a Russian courtroom, where they appeared to have cuts and bruises on their swollen faces as they faced terrorism charges following Friday's carnage. In fact, Saidakrami Rachabalizoda, a 30-year-old suspect, entered the court with a bandage around his ear and several noticeable bruises on his face.

32-year-old Dalerdzhon Mirzoyev was also photographed with a black eye as he sat behind plexiglass for the appearance in court. He also appeared to have the remnants of a plastic bag around his neck.

Riley Strain's tragic death appears accidental with no foul play suspected at this time after a preliminary autopsy ... according to a new report citing local police.

On Saturday, the Metro Nashville Police Department reportedly confirmed to WKRN News 2 that the preliminary autopsy on Riley has been completed, and the death continues to appear accidental.

This seemingly supports the police's initial conclusions ... remember, after Riley's body was found Friday the police held a presser where they reiterated that no foul play was suspected.

The death count in Friday's tragic Moscow mass shooting is much higher than originally believed ... according to Russia's President Vladimir Putin.

The controversial head of state reportedly told the nation during a televised address that 133 people had been killed in the vicious attack at Crocus City Hall, a concert venue on Moscow's Western outskirts.

Putin likens the shooters to Nazis ... saying they killed in an organized fashion, aiming for Russian citizens and even children.

ISIS has claimed responsibility for the attack, but President Putin laid the blame squarely at the feet of Ukrainian officials ... saying they were working to let the perpetrators cross the border into their country.

FWIW ... an anonymous United States official told The Washington Post there's no reason to doubt the Islamic State's claim.

As we reported ... videos from the tragic shooting went viral -- showing graphic scenes of death and destruction at the music hall. People huddled behind chairs while gunshots echoed around the structure, and initial estimates put the death count at above 40.

Explosives were reportedly used during the attack, resulting in the whole building catching fire.

Officials in Western countries warned their citizens about venturing out to large public gatherings this month in the aftermath of Putin's recent election victory ... warning of possible terror attacks.

At least one man was detained by police last night ... caught on video being frisked with his hands up against a wall. It's unclear how many people were detained or how many were involved in the mass shooting.

Kate Middleton's feelin' the love from every corner of the globe ... including from a prominent member of her own family who had a close connection to Princess Diana.

Charles Spencer -- the late Diana's brother -- posted a message of support to Kate Saturday following her bombshell cancer video announcement Friday.

The 9th Earl Spencer shared a screengrab of Kate's appearance and kept the caption short and sweet, writing, "Incredible poise and strength."

It's a pretty simple message from Princess Di's bro ... but, meaningful nonetheless. Remember, Diana was always applauded for her own poise as she went through her messy divorce from King Charles in the early 1990s.

And, Spencer even publicly compared the media scrutiny around Kate's stepping away from the spotlight to media attention around Diana before her death earlier this week -- making a more direct comparison between the two women.

Of course, Spencer isn't the only family member to send their messages of support out wide for Kate ... with the king and his wife Queen Camilla also making a public statement lauding Middleton's courage while Prince Harry & Meghan Markle even tried to reach out privately to the Princess of Wales.

Kate, of course, never got to meet Diana because the late princess was killed in a car crash several years before she started dating William.

Dolph Lundgren's not against recasting an iconic character -- telling fans to give David Corenswet's Superman a chance ... even if he's not entirely sure who he is.

We talked to the action movie star in Los Angeles Friday, and asked him all about the DC Universe coming to an end -- 'memba, Dolph starred as King Nereus in the 'Aquaman' films -- and he says he's sad to see it go 'cause of his great time working on the flick.

DL name-drops a few of his costars from the flick before moving on to the outrage surrounding Henry Cavill being dropped as Superman for Corenswet.

Lundgren says he isn't familiar with David -- by name or reputation -- but he says fans always get up in arms when one of their fav characters ends up being played by someone else ... and they need to give the guy a chance to flex his superhero muscles.

It seems like Dolph doesn't know Corenswet's work very well -- and yet, he's very positive here, saying he's rooting for DC's newest Man of Steel ... which is pretty awesome.

That said, Dolph's very clear there's one character he doesn't want recast ... Apollo Creed, played by the late great Carl Weathers.

The home where Erik and Lyle Menendez brutally murdered their parents just sold for big money ... and coincidentally, the transaction closed on a case-related anniversary.

According to the Los Angeles Times ... the mansion sold for $17 million on Wednesday just a couple months after being put on the market in December.

The home contains seven bedrooms, a pool, a tennis court, and a two-story guest house. It was purchased for $3.7 million in 2001 -- a pretty impressive ROI for the previous owner. Realtor.com reports the house sold for under its prevailing market value -- perhaps unsurprising given the grisly events that took place there.

As we said -- the sale of the house just so happened to fall exactly 28 years after the Menendez brothers were convicted of first-degree murder for killing their parents, Jose and Kitty, with a shotgun. They were convicted on March 20, 1996.

Of course, the Menendez case received a whole bunch of media attention last year after the release of the docuseries "Menendez + Menudo: Boys Betrayed" in which a member of the band Menudo claimed Jose Menendez had raped him while he was a teen.

Erik and Lyle's attorney Mark Geragos was pushing for a new trial based on the claim ... and, though that hasn't happened yet, it definitely renewed interest in the case.
