What started as what some might call a harmless prank quickly turned into something far more serious—Majeed Guerry is at the center of an alleged criminal incident. Authorities say the water balloon incident unfolded in Washington state and allegedly ended with a teen being shot.

Water Balloon Prank Escalates In Tacoma

According to police, Majeed Guerry allegedly confronted a group of teens after they threw a water balloon at his car while he was driving through Tacoma on February 28. The balloon reportedly drenched him after entering through his open window. Things reportedly escalated fast, with Guerry allegedly chasing the teens, blocking their vehicle, and confronting them with a firearm. Investigators say he allegedly threatened the group, demanded their belongings, and physically assaulted one teen before pressing a gun to the victim’s chest and firing. The teen survived but suffered serious injuries and was hospitalized.

Majeed Guerry Arrested At Casino

Police also say that Guerry allegedly robbed the teens during the encounter, demanding money and becoming upset when initially handed just $1. However, he allegedly said, “Do you think I’m f—ing stupid?” before taking $100 from them and leaving the scene.

After the incident, authorities say he went to a nearby casino, where he was located and arrested. Guerry has pleaded not guilty to multiple charges, including assault and robbery. Additional charges include unlawful possession of a firearm, while his bail has been set at $150,000.

Docs Offer More Details From Encounter

The affidavit allegedly states that the  suspect pressed a gun to the teen’s temple and made threatening statements. Before the shooting, the affidavit says the suspect reportedly pointed the weapon at all four teens and demanded their belongings. He also allegedly pistol-whipped one teen in the face, leaving him dazed while grabbing his jacket collar.

“[The victim] stated the suspect … pressed the muzzle of the pistol into [the victim’s] right temple,” according the affidavit. “[The victim] remembers the gun being cold as it made contact with his temple. As the suspect did this, he said things like ‘You think that’s funny?’ and ‘I’ll kill all you white boys in this car right now.’”

Sometimes a single tweet is all it takes to send the internet spiraling—and on Thursday afternoon, Ted Cruz reminded everyone that he doesn’t hold back. The Texas senator took to social media to share his thoughts on Druski’s recent viral skit, and let’s just say his response left fans shook.

Ted Cruz Shades “Conservative Women” Joke

On Thursday, Ted’s reaction on X was short, sharp, and dripping with disdain—he labeled the skit, “Beneath contempt.” Social media immediately exploded, with folks debating whether Cruz’s reply was justified or if he was just providing free publicity to Druski’s comedy. The skit itself pokes fun at conservative women’s behaviors. Now, thanks to Cruz, it’s getting even more attention—and laughs—than before.

Beneath contempt. https://t.co/vwyOs7UYZL

— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) March 26, 2026

Cruz Gets Dragged By Social Media

The moment hit TSR’s Instagram, and the comment section immediately went off. Some fans were cracking up that Ted Cruz actually responded. Meanwhile, others were quick to point out that pretty much everyone else seems to be vibing with Druski’s message. And of course, a few turned the tables, reminding everyone that Trump joked about Obama—so maybe politicians just can’t help but get pulled into the tea.

One Instagram user @frankvasquez_ said, “Oh it’s a problem when you guys are at the end of a joke😂😂😂”

This Instagram user @_oh.itschrissy added, “WE THE PEOPLE 🗣️🗣️🗣️ Support Druski’s message & representation of current day US 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽”

And, Instagram user @truly.rare shared, “Makes it funnier that he responded 😂💥🐕”

Likewise, Instagram user @truly.ese commented, “Druski got a senator to respond. He won 😂”

Then Instagram user @halfpintfilmzz claimed, “Target Audience Reached“

Lastly, Instagram user @paulanaja_ shared, “Sh*t was cute when Trump was posting about Obama tho. He’ll be alright. 😂👍🏽”

Recap Of Druski’s Viral Skit

This week, Druski had the internet gagged—and it’s not hard to see why. In just 15 hours, his skit “How Conservative Women in America Act” racked up more than 273,000 comments on Instagram alone. And, he’s trending across social media.

Druski’s performance shows him in full white woman makeup and a crisp white suit, strolling onto a stage surrounded by sparklers and American flags, smiling, dancing to rap, and striking prayer poses. From pretending to offer prayers during media interviews about international crises to wiping fake tears during the pledge of allegiance, ordering an “organic pup cup” from Starbucks, trying pilates, and giving a mock speech about “protecting white American men, the ones who matter most,” the skit skewers the quirks and behaviors of conservative women in the most exaggerated way possible.

Miley Cyrus celebrated her Innovator Award win at the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards with a heartfelt acceptance speech paying tribute to her Hannah Montana roots.

The “Slide Away” singer, 33, took the stage at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood on Thursday, March 26, to accept the honor.

In her speech, Cyrus reflected on celebrating 20 years of Hannah Montana, describing the milestone as “a dream come true.”

“My double denim and gold scarf thank you because they’ve been waiting over a decade to leave the house,” she joked.

Cyrus went on to credit Hannah Montana for influencing her real life, explaining that the character “inspired me so much in my own career.”

“I fell in love with the idea that you can create a persona that gives you the confidence and the courage to perform authentically and that sometimes the fake you can actually reveal the real you,” she said.

Cyrus also reflected on what the concept of innovation has meant for her throughout her career.

“Innovation for me hasn’t been about leaving who I’ve been behind, but about keeping the journey of finding myself a lot of fun,” she said. “I’ve always written songs and told stories because I love it, and winning awards for that work is of course rewarding, but it’s not my compass, because if it was, I’m sure I’d end up very lost.”

She added: “When the win isn’t recognition, but making art that reaches the hearts of people I may never meet, it brings me a kind of joy that is deeply meaningful. Younger me is so honored to share this moment with you. I’m proud to stand here and tell you how much you mean to me.”

Since its 2014 inception, the iHeartRadio Innovator Award has been presented to an artist who has impacted music and global culture during their career. Past recipients include Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars, Justin Timberlake, Pharrell Williams, Alicia Keys, Chance the Rapper and U2.

In addition to the Innovator Award, Cyrus already has two iHeartRadio Music Awards on her shelf after winning Best Lyrics for “Wrecking Ball” in 2014 and Pop Song of the Year for “Flowers” in 2024.

Cyrus’ latest accolade comes just days after she marked the 20th anniversary of Hannah Montana’s premiere with a Disney+ special on Tuesday, March 24.

“I learned this terrible habit — but I actually think it was good advice from [godmother] Dolly [Parton],” Cyrus told Variety earlier this month of how the special came to be. “She told me that if you want something to happen, promote it before it exists. Then no one can say no. So I just started promoting a Hannah Montana 20th-anniversary special that literally did not exist.”

She continued, “I think even Disney sometimes forgets the connection between me and Hannah. It’s not just a TV show. I see daily how important Hannah is to people. When I travel, people bring me Hannah merch. They ask, ‘Are you ever going to do another season?’”

At a screening of the special, Cyrus delivered a speech reflecting on her big break as Hannah Montana.

“Everything in my life is so amazing because Disney took a chance on me,” she said. “I had no business coming out to Los Angeles thinking that I could carry a show or pretend to be a pop star. I had no experience. I had done some theater before. … There were some years where I think they thought they made the right call. I think it all worked out just fine because whatever got us here in this room to honor and celebrate — not just the show itself — which has been the beginning of all of this. The cast is here tonight and it’s so amazing. Without you all, this show would never [have] been what it is.”

She continued, “I might be the only one in this room that never got to go to a Hannah Montana concert [because] I was the Hannah Montana concert. But now I understand why it was so much fun to go to one of Hannah’s shows to dress like her, wear the wig and wear the scarf. That’s what it felt like for me to celebrate Hannah Montana — now from the other side.”

Miranda McWhorter is addressing the drama surrounding her ex-husband Chase McWhorter and her Secret Lives of Mormon Wives costar Jessi Draper.

After an insider told Us Weekly that Jessi and Chase got cozy at a recent party, Miranda took to her TikTok account on Thursday, March 26, to react.

“[Get ready with me] while I process my friend group being a waiting room for my ex-husband,” Miranda, 27, wrote over footage of herself touching up her makeup in a mirror.

Tellingly, Kesha’s song “Backstabber” was used as the music choice to accompany the clip.

“I have no words 😶,” commented Whitney, while Mayci simply reacted with the emojis, “😳😳.”

An insider shared details of Jessi and Chase’s recent interaction with Us on Thursday after speculation was first reported by DeuxMoi earlier the same day.

“They were having fun at a party, and it’s not serious between them,” the insider told Us.

Meanwhile, a witness told DeuxMoi that Jessi and Chase were spotted “being cozy” and “later kissing” at a birthday party this past weekend.

Later on Thursday, Miranda appeared to address the incident via Instagram. Miranda shared an apology note and flowers she had received from Jessi.

“I completely understand you being upset with me,” read the card, which she posted via her Instagram Stories. “But wanted to send you a little something to let you know I’m thinking about you and I am so so sorry. – Jessi.”

Miranda captioned the post, “Received the prettiest flowers just minutes ago.”

The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Jessi Draper is breaking her silence on husband Jordan Ngatikaura filing for divorce after five years of marriage. “In the last year, I’ve told him, actually, a few different times I want to get divorced. But he always calms me down,” Jessi claimed during the Wednesday, March 25, episode […]

Us Weekly previously reached out to Jessi and Chase for comment.

Last week, news emerged that Jordan Ngatikaura had filed for divorce from Jessi. (The former couple married in 2020 and share two kids: Jagger and Jovey.)

“I’m grateful for the shared memories and the lessons,” Jordan said in a March 19 statement to Us. “While our paths are now moving in different directions, my priority remains my children and ensuring they feel loved, supported, and protected through this transition.”

Meanwhile, Miranda and Chase, who share son Brooks and daughter Cohen, called it quits after seven years of marriage in 2024.

“I think we both realized that we’d gotten married a little prematurely, and that’s why our relationship still is pretty, good 1774618930, like, we’re really cordial, really friendly,” Chase exclusively told Us as he reflected on their split in September 2024.
