AGT: Heidi Klum uncomfortable after comedian calls her a tramp in cringeworthy skit – USA TODAY

Heidi Klum may be ready to say auf Wiedersehen to an act on "America's Got Talent." During the third round of quarterfinals Tuesday, comedian Usama Siddiquee appeared to offend the German judge with his "risky" stand-up routine, where he joked about his name’s similarity to Osama bin Laden, the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, feminism and women’s voting rights. "I still get in situations for the name," Siddiquee joked, before joking about how he looked running through the airport when he nearly missed a flight. Last week on 'AGT':Kenan Thompson's adorable daughter steals the show during 'tough' elimination "Y'all realize how bad a brown dude looks running in an airport with a huge backpack?" he said. "I looked like a suicide bomber who overslept. Like, 'Ugh! First day on the job and also last...

Dorinda Medley fired from RHONY for being a mean drunk – Page Six

You really have to knock ’em back for the “Real Housewives” to think you’re drinking too much. But Page Six is told that Dorinda Medley was indeed fired from the “The Real Housewives of New York City” because she’d become a “mean drunk” on the show. (The source meant that Medley would become mean when drunk, not that she had become “a drunk.”) We’re told that Medley was “blindsided” by the news that she’d been dropped by the Bravo show after six seasons. She’d been filming an episode of ABC’s “The $100,000 Pyramid” when she got the call. Meanwhile, sauced sources tell Page Six that Medley — who, for example, repeatedly made fun of Luann de Lesseps for her alcohol-involved arrest — surprised her co-stars by failing to acknowledge that she had been stepping over the line. “I...

We could beat COVID-19 before a vaccine is ready – New York Post

Is a vaccine the only way to return to normal after ­COVID-19? New research into the virus suggests not — that the infection rate may drop to tiny levels before then. Since the spring, scientists have known the virus’s infection fatality rate — how many people it kills compared to the number it infects — is under 1 percent, perhaps as low as 0.2 percent. That lower figure translates into one death for every 500 people infected. We have also known that deaths are seriously skewed by age. The media says older people are at “more” risk from the novel coronavirus than younger people. That’s true, but it understates the reality. Most people do not realize that the risks to people over 80 is hundreds or thousands of times higher than those younger people face. The fatality rate fo...

Oral sex linked to vaginal condition bacterial vaginosis – BBC News

Image copyright Getty Images Image caption BV bacteria covering cells Oral sex may create an environment for a common vaginal condition called bacterial vaginosis or BV, according to research in the journal PLoS Biology. BV is not a sexually transmitted infection. It is an imbalance of the usual bacteria found in the vagina. Women who have it may have no symptoms, but some get a strong-smelling discharge. Researchers explored what effect mouth bacteria have on microbes that live and grow in the vagina. About BV BV is not usually serious, but should be treated because having BV makes women more vulnerable t...
