Snowboarder Jiayu Liu Crashes Out, Exits on Stretcher

Chinese snowboarder Jiayu Liu took a serious spill in a disastrous move on her women’s halfpipe qualifying run Wednesday … slamming down hard and unable to get up afterward.

Check out the scary video … the 33-year-old was well on her way to landing a 900-degree spin … but her board suddenly caught an edge as she was coming off the transition part of the pipe, violently tossing her forward and sending her into an uncontrolled somersault.
The clip shows her legs and board flipping over her back — a wipeout known as a “Scorpion,” because the crash resembles the arachnid’s tail curling up forward toward its head.
Liu slid to a halt and laid there, only slightly moving her head … clearly in pain. Medical personnel hopped into the halfpipe to help her, and she was carted away.
Neither the Olympics nor Liu’s team shared an immediate update on her status.
She was in 13th place when she descended into the pipe and needed to move up one spot to qualify for finals, which will be held Thursday.

Zayn Malik Doubles Down, Says He Was Never in Love With Gigi Hadid
Zayn Malik
I ‘Love’ Gigi Hadid … But I Was Never ‘In Love’ With Her
Published
Call Her Daddy
Zayn Malik is doubling down on a past claim that he’s never been in love … not even with his daughter’s mom, Gigi Hadid.
The singer got super candid with Alex Cooper on her “Call Her Daddy” podcast, delivering the coldest news in the warmest way possible.
Watch the clip … when Alex asks him if he still stands by a comment he made 2 years ago that he didn’t think he’d ever truly been in love, Zayn very politely agreed with the sentiment.
Zayn explained, “Because my understanding of love is always developing. At that moment in time, I might have thought it was love, but as I got older, I realized maybe it wasn’t. Maybe it was lust. Maybe it was this … maybe it was that … I don’t feel like it was love.”
But he did add a clarification … “I will always love G, because she’s the reason my child is on this Earth, and I have the utmost respect for her. I will always love her, but I don’t know if I was ever in love with her.”
Remember … The two had their daughter Khai in September 2020 and announced their split the following year. After a crazy, nasty breakup — Gigi’s mom, Yolanda, accused Zayn of striking Yolanda and pushing her into a dresser — Zayn and Gigi seem to be on much better terms.

I don’t believe in suffering for an outfit, especially on a regular weekday when I have places to be and zero patience. When I want to look slimmer fast, I always choose the path of least resistance with clothes that feel comfortable, flattering and easy to style. Thankfully, I’ve learned exactly which dresses never let me down, and I’m sharing my favorites below.
These are the 13 dresses on Amazon that I rely on when I need an instant outfit win without spending a fortune. Between ruched wrap styles that define the waist, flowy maxi dresses that smooth and A-line shapes that are forgiving, these pretty options do the heavy lifting for me. I just zip one on, grab my bag and go — no tailoring required! The best part? All of my picks are affordable with prices starting as low as $18.
13 Dresses That Provide a Slimming Appearance
1. My Favorite: This waist-cinching maxi is a standout when I’m craving an accentuated silhouette. The cinched middle creates that coveted hourglass effect, and the flared bottom drapes right over the hips and lower stomach.
2. Wrinkle-Free: I love how this casual maxi dress makes me look streamlined without feeling tight or restrictive — the loose silhouette does all the work. Add in the wrinkle-free fabric, and it’s an easy win for travel or everyday wear.
3. Wrapped Winner: Whenever I want to look slimmer and show a little leg, this colorful wrap dress is my go-to pick. The cinched waist defines my shape and the slit makes it perfect for date nights, rooftop dinners or warm-weather events.
4. Has Pockets: I reach for this easy maxi dress when I want everything to feel smoothed out. It glides over the midsection and hips effortlessly, thanks to the lightweight, flowy fabric. Plus, the pockets make it easy to wear all day without carrying a bag.
5. Loose and Slimming: I love how a flowy maxi dress, like this top-rated option, can still feel flattering. The laid-back fabric skims over my curves and makes it comfortable enough to lounge in all day.
6. Curve-Accentuating: There’s something very polished about a belted wrap dress that’s made with super soft knit materials. The defined waist and clean wrap lines give it that expensive-looking, body-flattering finish.
7. Totally Transitional: This cinched mini dress is one I reach for when the weather starts to shift. Designed with a waist-defining fit, puffed sleeves and a flowy hem, this dress is easy to go from day into night.
8. Date Night-Ready: When date night calls for something flattering (but not fussy), this sheer wrap dress is my answer. I appreciate the shaping cinched-waist detail that give me an hourglass look. Plus, the see-through accents add a little allure in the best way.
9. Must-Have Midi: This A-line midi dress does all the flattering work for me. The flared skirt creates a lean silhouette that moves nicely as I walk. With 41 colors to choose from, it’s easy to make this option feel casual or elevated.
10. Floral Favorite: This floral midi dress hits that sweet spot for wedding-adjacent events, like bridal showers or rehearsal brunches. It cinches at the waist and flows out just enough to feel elegant without stealing the spotlight.
11. Knitted Perfection: I reach for this contrast knit maxi when I want something polished that still feels comfortable. The defined waist creates shape, and the bold stripes slim and lengthen the lower half.
12. Mini Moment: This knitted black mini is one dress I live in during the cooler months. The slimming fit-and-flare shape works beautifully with tights, boots and an oversized coat.
13. Clever Ruching: This ruched shirt dress is one of my favorite silhouettes for a reason. The collar and button front keep it streamlined, while the belted ruching smooths and defines my waist.

Brandi Glanville Defends Jill Zarin Amid Halftime Comments Fallout
Brandi Glanville is standing by Jill Zarin‘s side after the latter faced consequences for slamming Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance.
The drama began after the Puerto Rican rapper headlined this year’s halftime show in Spanish, leaving many upset over the lack of English songs. “The Real Housewives of New York City” alum was among those who criticized his performance.
Following her scathing review of Bad Bunny’s show, Jill Zarin was removed from an upcoming reunion show. Brandi Glanville recently reacted to her pal’s termination, stressing that people shouldn’t be punished for having different opinions.

Brandi Glanville Slams Jill Zarin’s Firing Over Bad Bunny’s Halftime Show

Glanville shared her thoughts on Zarin’s removal from the upcoming E! show “The Golden Life” in a recent X post. She started off by declaring her love for Bad Bunny, claiming she wanted to become “his Mrs. Robinson.”
Glanville added that she enjoyed his halftime performance, declaring that the show “rocked,” but it wasn’t a good enough reason to punish her friend, Zarin. The TV personality noted that Zarin was entitled to her own opinion, which she did not agree with; however, “opinions aren’t wrong, they’re subjective.”

“I want to watch Jill on TV explain herself & hopefully learn something. Or we can just keep watching ‘yes people’ afraid to share,” Glanville concluded. Her words divided fans in the comments, with some agreeing with Glanville while others argued that Zarin’s words were offensive.

The Former Bravolebrity’s Stance Sparked Mixed Reactions

In the supportive corner, one fan agreed with Glanville that Zarin had simply shared her opinion on Bad Bunny’s performance. “She didn’t say anything offensive. You’all act like she ate babies….oh wait…you people think that’s ok. Grow up,” the X user argued.
“Brandi, you’re my girl. Completely feel the same way,” another supporter chimed in. A third agreed with Zarin’s stance, claiming they also disliked Bad Bunny’s halftime show because it was in Spanish. On the other hand, critics slammed both Glanville and Zarin, stressing that there was no room for racism.

“Nah, there’s lines and Jill’s tirade crossed them,” an X user stressed. “It went beyond opinion when she stated ‘there were no white people,’” another displeased fan pointed out. A third echoed similar sentiments, noting that “Freedom of speech isn’t freedom from consequences.”

How The Reality TV Star Reacted To Her Exit

Glanville’s reaction to Zarin’s termination follows the latter’s comments about her exit. While speaking to In Touch, Zarin argued that she wasn’t given a chance to clear her name. “I took it down right away. People make mistakes. I’m human,” she said about the since-deleted controversial post.
A source told the outlet that there were many rooting for Zarin’s return to the show, claiming, “Everyone on the Internet is up in arms because they love Jill and were finally getting her back.” The source also slammed E! for removing Zarin from the show, declaring:
“Jill will be back — this won’t keep her down. People love her. That will never change.”
The Production Company Behind ‘The Golden Life’ Confirmed The Entertainer’s Exit

Zarin’s reaction to her exit from the upcoming reunion show follows the confirmation of her removal from the E! program. The Blast covered the story, reporting that the production company in charge of the reunion show announced the news in a statement.
Although Blink49 Studios did not highlight which part of Zarin’s comments had triggered her removal from the upcoming show, they stressed that it played a key part in her exit. “We remain committed to delivering the series in line with our company standards and values,” the production company added.

As stated, Zarin had a major problem with Bad Bunny’s Spanish performance, complaining in a since-deleted Instagram post that she could not understand a word of it. She also labeled it “the worst halftime show ever” and found it inappropriate that the rapper kept grabbing his crotch during his performance.
Andy Cohen Joined The List Of Those Slamming Jill Zarin

Zarin went on to label Bad Bunny’s performance “a political statement because there were literally no white people in the entire thing.” Additionally, she slammed Lady Gaga for allegedly getting a facelift, noting she could barely recognize the singer and had to Google her face to find her name.
The Blast shared that Bravo executive Andy Cohen addressed Zarin’s reaction to the Super Bowl performance on his “Radio Andy” show. He subtly slammed her by passing the baton to E! because Zarin was no longer employed by Bravo.

“And in terms of Jill, just… I don’t know. You know, call E!” Cohen said, referencing the upcoming “RHONY” reunion show. When his co-host noted that “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum Taylor Armstrong had also slammed Bad Bunny’s performance, Cohen stressed that both women were no longer with Bravo.

New Nancy Guthrie Note, Sender Demands 1 Bitcoin for Info On Kidnapping Suspect
Nancy Guthrie Case
New Note Demands 1 Bitcoin to Rat Out Suspect
Published
There’s a new note in the Nancy Guthrie case, but this one doesn’t seem to be from the kidnappers … instead, it’s from someone offering to give up information on the kidnapper.
TMZ received the note just before 5 AM PT, and the sender claims they’ve tried unsuccessfully to reach Savannah Guthrie‘s brother, Camron, and her sister, Annie, by email and text. The note goes on, “If they want the name of the individual involved then I want 1 Bitcoin to the following wallet. Time is more than relevant.”
There is a legitimate Bitcoin address in the note … and it is a different address from the one in the original ransom note, received by TMZ and 2 Tucson TV news stations.
We have forwarded this note to the FBI.
It’s unclear if the sender of this note is legit, but interestingly, 1 Bitcoin is worth about $66,000 right now. You’ll recall law enforcement is currently offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to Nancy’s kidnappers.

… ‘It’s Hard to Forgive’

It appears Sturla Holm Laegreid‘s not out of the doghouse (yet?) — his ex-girlfriend has addressed his public cheating confession during the Winter Olympics … and she said forgiveness isn’t so easy.
SHL’s ex, who asked to remain anonymous, spoke with Norwegian news outlet VG about Tuesday’s viral moment … when the biathlete admitted during his medal-winning interview that he stepped out on her months ago.
“I made the biggest mistake of my life and was unfaithful, and I told her about it a week ago,” SHL said. “This has been the worst week of my life.”

Before addressing the confession, she congratulated SHL and his teammate, Johan-Olav Bothn, on winning the bronze … but despite his public apology, she’s not ready to move past his infidelity.
“It’s hard to forgive,” she wrote to VG, “Even after a declaration of love in front of the whole world.”
“I did not choose to be put in this position, and it hurts to have to be in it. We have had contact, and he is aware of my opinions on this.”
She also said she was grateful to her friends and family who have supported her through this time and to “everyone else who has thought of me and sympathized, without knowing who I am.”
SHL is aware of his ex’s remarks and told VG he has no comment.

Matthew McConaughey’s Valentine’s Day Plans Include No Pants And A Horse
Matthew McConaughey and Camila McConaughey are skipping the candlelit dinners and prix-fixe menus this Valentine’s Day, and instead, they’re going full Texas. The couple marked the holiday by quite literally riding bareback, a moment captured in a cheeky new photo tied to their tequila brand, Pantalones Organic Tequila. The image is officially dubbed the “Official Tequila of Riding Bareback,” a title that fits perfectly within the brand’s ongoing Official Tequila Of campaign, which thrives on humor and not taking life too seriously.

Matthew McConaughey’s Party Pants Margaritas Take Over Valentine’s Day

For fans looking to channel that same energy without hopping on a horse, Pantalones is also rolling out a Valentine’s Day-friendly option nationwide at Fuzzy’s Taco Shop.
The brand has partnered with the casual chain to offer the Party Pants Marg, a two-flavor margarita flight served in a duo-legged “pants” cup. Each “leg” holds a different flavor, letting guests mix and match mango, strawberry, or lime.
Designed for sharing and priced at $14.50, the colorful drink is very much on-brand. Fun, customizable, and made to be enjoyed without overthinking it.

Matthew McConaughey’s Fun-First Tequila Is Racking Up Awards

That fun-first philosophy has been central to Pantalones since day one. Back in 2025, Matthew McConaughey spoke openly about why the brand intentionally steers away from the traditional, heritage-heavy approach common in the spirits world. “A lot of brands out there lean into heritage or mystique,” Matthew told Variety at the time. “We leaned into having fun. We’re organic and award-winning, but we’re also lighthearted and have an irreverent energy that invites people in.”

Despite the playful branding, the quality speaks for itself. In under two years, Pantalones has built an impressive awards résumé, including a major win at the 2024 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, where its Añejo tequila earned Double Gold, outperforming several long-established brands with significantly higher price tags.

Camila Alves McConaughey Says Major Win Proves Pantalones Was Built To Compete

Camila Alves McConaughey said the recognition validated the mission she and Matthew set from the start.
“We’re incredibly proud of this win!” Camila shared. “From the beginning, Matthew and I set out to create an organic tequila that didn’t just taste great. It had to stand tall next to the best of the best. We believe great quality should be accessible, and this award is a nod to that mission.”
And Camila’s involvement goes far beyond being a co-founder in name. While Matthew brings the big-picture ideas and unmistakable branding flair, Camila is deeply embedded in the business itself, working hands-on with logistics, supply chain management, and day-to-day operations to keep the brand running smoothly.

“Fortunately, this isn’t my first time starting a business,” she said last year. “But it’s the first time for Matthew, and we’ve gone face forward in this together. I thrive working on accounts, logistics, the numbers, and the behind-the-scenes business side of things.”
A Milestone Moment On The High Seas

Beyond tequila wins and cheeky campaigns, one of Matthew and Camila McConaughey’s biggest accomplishments last year came on the open ocean. In November, the couple stepped into an iconic role as godparents of Star Princess, the newest and most innovative ship from Princess Cruises.
The McConaugheys officially christened the vessel, carrying on a centuries-old maritime tradition, with a very on-brand twist. Instead of breaking a bottle of champagne across the ship’s bow, Matthew and Camila used a bottle of their own Pantalones Organic Tequila to bless the ship.

Long before the Valentine’s Day bareback buzz, the brand built its reputation on going all in, and often pantsless, for the bit.
At this point, it’s clear Pantalones isn’t just selling tequila, but it’s selling a vibe. One that’s playful and unapologetically fun, proving that whether it’s awards, cruise ships, or viral stunts, the McConaugheys are committed to doing things their own way, with pants being very much optional.

Rob Gronkowski’s Girlfriend Is Campaigning For His ‘DWTS’ Debut
Former professional football player Rob Gronkowski is drawing attention once again, not for football, but for a possible stint on reality TV. His longtime girlfriend, model and host Camille Kostek, enthusiastically expressed wanting to see her partner move on the dance floor.
Gronkowski retired from playing football a few years ago and now works as a sports analyst, but he is open to the idea of competing for the Mirrorball Trophy.

Camille Kostek Wants Someone To ‘Pair Up’ With Rob Gronkowski

On February 10, Page Six caught up with Kostek, who has been with Gronkowski for more than 10 years, at a Super Bowl party where she was asked whether she wanted him to participate on “Dancing with the Stars.”
“I think that would be awesome for me; for him to have a little more rhythm, and a little bit more training,” she answered.
Kostek said that she tries with Gronkowski, but having a professional dancer teach him would be amazing. “I think when we go out, it’ll be a lot more fun to dance together, and for him to do the lifts? Oh! Someone pair up with him,” the 33-year-old host said.

Athletes And Former ‘DWTS’ Contestants Weighed In

“Dancing with the Stars” has welcomed stars from various fields, including many athletes, and Page Six caught up with some of them to get their opinions on Gronkowski joining the show.
Rugby player Ilona Maher, who was the runner-up on season 33, said the former tight end would be “great” at it, adding, “I mean, I don’t know how well he moves his hips, but I think he would kill it. I’ll give him any tips.” Maher said that professional dancer Emma Slater would be a good partner for Gronkowski.

Another athlete, former professional basketball player Dwight Howard, jokingly said he’s not sure if Gronkowski has the rhythm, but he didn’t discount his skills altogether. “He did good at football, I think he’ll do pretty good at dancing,” he stated. Howard also competed in season 33 of “Dancing with the Stars,” and he finished in 6th place.

Rob Gronkowski Has Dance Moves
The public knows that Gronkowski has dance moves, although he could use a bit of training. As previously reported by The Blast, the former football player lit up the stage in Las Vegas on New Year’s Eve 2025 by showing off his dance skills.
Gronkowski hosted the “New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” broadcast alongside “Dancing with the Stars” host Julianne Hough, and they danced onstage to Tate McRae’s “Sports Car.”
In the middle of the performance, however, the overenthusiastic Gronkowski lost his balance and slipped. Fortunately, he caught himself before faceplanting and did a goofy pose while on the floor. Hough posted the incident on TikTok, assuring fans that Gronkowski was fine, writing, he “tackled the stage” but was okay.

The Athlete Said ‘DWTS’ Is ‘On The Plate’

In an appearance on “TODAY” in January, Gronkowski said that since the dancing mishap, Hough has repeatedly asked him when he was joining the reality dance competition.
“‘Dancing with the Stars’ has always been on the plate, there’s no doubt about that,” he answered. What’s hindering him from competing, however, is scheduling during the football season. “When I feel like the time is right… Then I would do it,” he assured the hosts.
That wasn’t the first time Gronkowski showed interest in the dance show. In 2018, he attended Shaquille O’Neal’s Miami Music Week, where he showed off his moves and had a dance battle with O’Neal.
According to Page Six, Gronkowski told guests at the party that he wanted to win “Dancing with the Stars” and boasted that he was the “best dancer in the NFL.”
Rob Gronkowski Retired From The NFL Twice
Gronkowski spent 11 seasons in the NFL. In 2019, he retired after nine seasons with the New England Patriots. After a short break, however, he came out of retirement and joined the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020. Two years later, he decided to retire for good. Gronkowski has been working for Fox Sports as an analyst since his retirement.
In November 2025, Gronkowski once again signed a contract with the New England Patriots. That time, however, it wasn’t to play football; instead, it was to fulfill a dear friend’s wish. He signed a one-day contract with the team, saying, “I’m a Patriot for life. My career started here and 100% needed to end here.”

Growkowski’s friend, former Patriots cheerleader Susan Hurley, asked him to retire as a Patriot. Hurley passed away from cancer in November, and fulfilling her wish was an “absolute no-brainer” for the former tight end.
