Hilary Duff was not having it after she noticed a paparazzo taking photos of the children at her 7-year-old son Luca's football game on Saturday. Paparazzi are notorious for invading personal space and pushing boundaries, and many celebrities have snapped at them for getting too close or not leaving people alone. However, Hilary emphasized in the video she posted on Instagram of herself confronting this particular "creep" that taking pictures of kids totally crosses the line. In the clip, the actress walks up to the paparazzo and asks him if he knows any of the kids on the field. When he says that he does not, a back-and-forth ensues between them.
View this post on InstagramWhen Hilary asks the man to stop taking photos of the kids, he points out that it's "legal." She indicates that, regardless, he is making her uncomfortable, and he asks her if she'd like to see his ID. “I'm not asking for your ID,” she responds. “I'm asking you to stop taking pictures of our 7-year-old children if you don't know anyone that's here." He reiterates the legality of his actions, to which she says, "I'm asking you human-to-human—as a mother—if you don't know anyone here, can you please stop taking pictures of our children playing football this morning?” The paparazzo tries to justify himself by claiming that he's merely "practicing photography," before telling Hilary that her "paranoia is unwarranted." Hilary tells him that she plans to post the video to her "15 million followers on Instagram and let people know how creepy it is that this is what you're choosing to do on your Saturday morning." She then pans over to all the concerned parents sitting on the sidelines to show viewers everyone else who is creeped out by this man, before he puts his hand over her phone and the video ends.

“Paparazzi shooting KIDS,” she wrote in the caption of the post. “Go ‘practice’ your photography on ADULTS! Creep! Laws need to change! This is stalking minors! Disgusting!” Hilary received plenty of support from fellow celebrities, including Shameless star Emmy Rossum, who commented, "Children should be protected under the law." Celebrity blogger, Perez Hilton, also commented, pointing out that he does not "run any paparazzi photos of celeb children on [his] site" and that "every media outlet should agree to do the same." Hilary has spoken out about paparazzi invading her and her children's space (she also has a 1-year-old daughter, Banks, with husband Matthew Koma) in the past. In December, she told a story about trying to run errands with her kids while photographers refused to stop following them around.
"Venom 2" BTS Pic Reveals Woody Harrelson As Carnage
Cletus Kasady lives in Tom Hardy’s new behind-the-scenes picture from set of “Venom 2.”
While the Tom Hardy-led Venom flick wasn’t exactly a critical darling, it certainly proved to be a hit with the fans — especially those who stuck around to catch the post-credits scene. As you might know, said scene featured a glimpse of the upcoming sequel’s main antagonist and Marvel’s favorite psychopath Cletus Kasady, better known as the red and black symbiote-clad Carnage. Now, with production of Venom 2 well underway, Tom Hardy took to Instagram to share a behind-the-scenes look at Harrelson in character.

Unfortunately, the powers that be quickly swooped in and purged Hardy’s page of all things Cletus. Yet it was too late. The picture was already spreading across the internet, not entirely different from a symbiote itself. While the image isn’t exactly Carnage as you might recognize him, it still points to an intriguing direction for the character: at once flashy, imposing, and slightly mischevious.
Check out the image below, which finds Harrelson decked in a red and yellow Hawaiin shirt complete with a black jacket. Thus completing the iconic color palette without slamming us over the head with a symbiote hammer. Given that Woody Harrelson boasts some seriously slept on acting chops, it’s likely that he’s going to knock this one out of the park. Are you excited to see Venom 2 later this year when it drops on October 2nd?
Kumail Nanjiani’s Dad Owns Socks With Shirtless Picture Of His Son On Them
Kumail Nanjiani returned home to find an odd pair of socks.
Kumail Nanjiani's father is extremely proud of his son-- perhaps too proud.
While visiting home, Nanjiani posted a picture of a pair of a custom pair of socks his dad owns that display his son's shirtless body. Over the image appear the words, "I am his Dad." “Visiting the parents. My dad has these socks,” Nanjiani wrote in the tweet, as noted by Entertainment Weekly.
Nanjiani is fit for a reason. Landing a role in Marvel's The Eternals, the comedic actor wanted to get into superhero shape and did so successfully. “I never thought I’d be one of those people who would post a thirsty shirtless, but I’ve worked way too hard for way too long so here we are. You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain," Nanjiani wrote when originally posting the picture from the socks.
He added, “I found out a year ago I was going to be in Marvel’s The Eternals and decided I wanted to transform how I looked. I would not have been able to do this if I didn’t have a full year with the best trainers and nutritionists paid for by the biggest studio in the world.”
The Eternals is set to premiere in November 2020.
Trippie Redd & XXXTentacion Buddy Up In Bittersweet Pic
Trippie Redd pays homage to his fallen friend.
Since his sudden death in June of 2018, XXXTentacion’s legacy has been steadily kept alive by his friends, family, and fans. For many in the younger generation, XXXTentacion has become a legendary figure, one whose artistic potential was shut down before it had a chance to manifest and develop. Though his posthumous work has proven divisive to say the least, his projects 17 and ? remain celebrated bodies of work, especially for those invested in Triple X’s occasionally tumultuous career.

Today, Trippie Redd took to Instagram to pay homage to his fallen friend, uploading a picture of them buddied up in what looks to be a hotel bathroom. As several people in the comment section have pointed out, Trippie’s iPhone 11 (which came out in 2019) confirms this one to be a Photoshop. Still, the sentiment remains the same, as Trippie and X were indeed friends and collaborators. Many took to the comment section to pay respects, including Juicy J, who deemed the slain rapper to be “a preacher for the youth.”
Real or not, let the picture be a reminder of another of hip-hop’s lost ones. Check it out for yourself, and show some love for the fallen in the comments — what was your favorite Triple X track?
