Chris Pratt slammed for praising wife for healthy daughter after sons disabilities – Page Six

He prattled on a bit too much. Chris Pratt is being called “cringe and vile” for praising his wife, Katherine Schwarzenegger, for giving him a “healthy daughter” given that his son with ex Anna Faris, Jack, has suffered serious health issues over the years. “I love Chris Pratt, but the ‘healthy daughter’ part is made me wince,” one person tweeted Thursday. “Although he may not have meant it as an insult, it sort of came off that way. Imagine how that will make his son feel, if he ever reads it?” Another more angrily chimed in, “Chris Pratt has a kid with Anna Farris [sic] who suffered a cerebral hemorrhage during birth and now has slight physical disabilities because of it. But he made sure to write ‘healthy daughter’ here. Chris Pratt is a dick.” P...

I barely function some days: Covid long haulers struggle to work amid labor shortage – CNN

"I pretty much live here in the living room," Bedell said from her house near Pittsburgh. "I feel like I've lost the life that I had." Last November, she and her family contracted Covid-19. The virus killed her father. Nearly a year later, she's still battling post-Covid syndrome, a mysterious long-term condition plaguing some coronavirus patients, and she remains so ill she's unable to work. Bedell, who's 42, keeps a long list of her symptoms, including severe fatigue, cognitive impairment -- known as "brain fog" -- and constant pain. She's put on 60 pounds, and often sleeps on the couch because she can't find the strength to climb the stairs to her bedroom. She needs a walker to get around the house and a wheelchair for medical appointments. "I literally can't even leave my hou...

Kate Beckinsale subtly praises Pete Davidson amid Kim Kardashian dating rumors – Page Six

A “like” is worth a thousand words. Kate Beckinsale has given the public a subtle hint as to why she — and several of Hollywood’s most beautiful women — became smitten by her ex, Pete Davidson. The “Pearl Harbor” star, 48, liked a repost of a tweet this week that said, “I love how every time Pete Davidson starts dating another beautiful celebrity everyone’s like ‘wtf is happening how did he do this what is this mystery???’ and everybody refuses to entertain the possibility that he might have a nice personality.” The original tweet went viral on Monday after a photo of Davidson, 27, holding hands with Kim Kardashian at a California theme park over the weekend sparked dating rumors. The pair have since gone out to dinner in New York twice this week an...

Alec Baldwin ‘Rust’ shooting: Armorer’s lawyers dismiss claims of ‘inexperience,’ question live ammo on set – Fox News

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – The legal team for "Rust" armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed is pushing back against concerns about her level of experience while questioning how – and why – live ammunition made it onto an Alec Baldwin movie set. "Never in a million years did Hannah think that live rounds could have been in the ‘dummy’ round box," one of her attorneys, Jason Bowles, said in a statement shared with Fox News on Thursday. "Who put those in there and why is the central question." The remarks come as sources close to the set are raising concerns about Gutierrez Reed’s experience and maturity, and as details in Santa Fe search warrants suggest a break with established firearms safety protocols. Aerial photo shows the Bonanza Creek Ranch in Santa Fe, New Mexico, days after cinemato...
