A tragic roof collapse at Jet Set nightclub in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, has left at least 124 people dead and over 255 injured. The collapse happened about an hour into a concert by singer Rubby Pérez, who was among the victims. Videos show the crowd trying to flee as the roof came down.

Victims Identified

Among the deceased are MLB players Octavio Dotel and Tony Enrique Blanco Cabrera, saxophonist Luis Solis, and the president of AFP Popular Bank. “We’re going to search tirelessly for people,” said Emergency Operations Director Juan Manuel Méndez. Only 54 victims have been identified so far.

Mourning and Support

President Luis Abinader declared three days of mourning, saying, “We deeply regret the tragedy… Our prayers are with the affected families.” Senator Marco Rubio added, “The U.S. stands ready to support our Dominican allies.”

Grief and Investigation

Jet Set’s statement read: “There are no words to express the pain this event has caused.” An investigation is underway to determine the cause as rescue efforts continue.

Bella Thorne Accuses Mickey Rourke of On-Set Misconduct

Bella Thorne has accused actor Mickey Rourke of inappropriate behavior while filming Girl in 2020. Her claims come after Rourke received backlash for homophobic comments made to JoJo Siwa on Celebrity Big Brother UK, for which he was formally warned and later apologized.

Allegations from Thorne

On Instagram, Thorne wrote: “This f**king dude. GROSS. I had to work with this man… He’s supposed to take a metal grinder to my kneecap, and instead he used it on my genitals thru my jeans. Hitting them over and over again.” She said the incident left her with bruises and called it “one of the all-time worst experiences of my life working as an actress.”

More Claims and Mistreatment

Thorne added on X: “I had to go in his trailer absolutely alone… I had to beg. Alone. In his trailer.” She also said he humiliated her in front of the crew and “should’ve never put anybody in that movie in any of those positions.”

Response from Rourke’s Team

Rourke’s representative told Variety: “Mr. Rourke adamantly denies any intentional misconduct… He remains willing to cooperate with any appropriate inquiry.”

Model and “Australia’s Next Top Model” alum Lucy Markovic has died at 27. Her partner, Carlos, shared the news in an emotional Instagram Story: “Dear friends and family, I regret to inform you that Lucy has passed… She was at peace. Me, her mother and my mother were present with her.”

Markovic had been suffering from a brain arteriovenous malformation (AVM), described by the Mayo Clinic as “a tangle of blood vessels that creates irregular connections between arteries and veins in the brain.” Elite Model Management confirmed her passing followed “a brave battle” with the condition.

In the weeks leading up to her death, she posted updates from her hospital stay. Delays in testing, pain, and fear were part of the process. Still, she found strength in her loved ones, writing: “They have been such a healthy distraction for me.”

Her final post reflected a mix of emotions: “Excited, thankful, scared, supported, hopeful… Life’s a journey and I’m ready for the next chapter.”

Markovic’s passing has left fans and friends mourning a bright talent lost too soon. “Fly free… We love you Lucy, forever.”

Kyren Lacy Dies at 24 Amid Legal Turmoil

Former LSU wide receiver Kyren Lacy was found dead on April 12 in Houston at just 24 years old. An LSU official confirmed his death to ESPN. While the cause hasn’t been officially released, it’s being investigated as a suspected suicide, according to sources.

Lacy faced legal trouble in his final months. In December, he was accused of a fatal hit-and-run that killed a 78-year-old man in Lafourche Parish. He turned himself in on January 12 and was released on $151,000 bail. A grand jury was set to hear evidence less than two days after his death.

His lawyer condemned the investigation as “an overzealous, targeted effort—what can only be described as a witch hunt,” and said Lacy had not been formally charged. “Kyren was a young man with immense promise, and he was crushed under the weight of an irresponsible and prejudiced process,” the statement read.

Lacy, who transferred from Louisiana-Lafayette to LSU, had declared for the 2025 NFL Draft in December. He was praised for his talent and intensity on the field.

Fifteen years after burying a time capsule with my classmates, I returned to my hometown to uncover what we left behind. I never expected to find the truth about the betrayal that shattered my life.

Back then, I was dating Brian, and Jess was my best friend. The night we buried the capsule, Brian avoided me, and I was heartbroken. “You promised to love me for my whole life! Are those words meaningless now?!” I had shouted. His cold reply: “You ruined everything yourself.”

Now, returning to the schoolyard, I was nervous. When we opened the capsule, I found a letter from Jess. “I started a rumor about you and Malcolm… I forged messages… I didn’t care about the consequences.”

Jess admitted she had wanted to be me, even if it meant destroying me. “Sorry isn’t enough,” I told her. But she wanted to make amends.

Later, Brian approached me. “I haven’t seen Jess since high school… I was an idiot for believing the lie.” He asked to take me on a date.

I smiled. “Fine. But only if you win me a new locket.”

Obama Portrait Replaced by Trump Painting in White House

The White House has replaced Barack Obama’s official portrait with a dramatic painting of Donald Trump during last year’s assassination attempt. The new artwork, showing Trump with a bloodied face and fist raised, now hangs prominently in the Grand Foyer. Obama’s portrait was relocated across the hall, replacing George W. Bush’s, which was moved near his father’s.

Public Reactions Spark Debate

The painting’s unveiling on social media sparked mixed reactions. One user asked, “Is it serious?” while another commented, “This gives super North Korea vibes that isn’t funny.” Many were upset by the violent image now taking center stage in the presidential residence.

The Assassination Attempt

In July 2024, Trump was grazed by a bullet at a rally in Pennsylvania. He recalled, “I heard a whizzing sound, shots, and immediately felt the bullet ripping through the skin.” Video shows him wounded but raising his fist and yelling “Fight! Fight!” before being escorted offstage.

Ongoing FBI Investigation

The FBI continues to investigate the shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, as a potential domestic terrorist. Over 100 interviews and searches have been conducted, but the motive remains unclear. The firearm was legally purchased, and Crooks wasn’t previously known to the FBI.

For nearly 50 years, Eleanor devoted herself to her church—teaching Bible study, cooking meals, funding mission trips, and never asking for anything in return. But when she needed support after an accident left her disabled, the church turned its back. “She was faithful. She was humble. She was invisible,” her granddaughter Callie remembers.

Even as her health declined, Eleanor continued to mail in tithes and send gifts to the children she once taught. Yet, no one from the church visited. Not even Pastor J., who once praised her as a cornerstone of the community. The final blow came in hospice. Pastor M. visited—not to comfort her, but to ask if she’d included the church in her will. “He didn’t ask me about my soul,” Eleanor whispered. “He just asked me about my money.”

At her funeral, held outside the church, her husband declared, “They abandoned our Eleanor.” Her will revealed the final truth—both pastors were left just one cent. The real gift went to someone who showed up. “You broke my heart,” Eleanor wrote. “But I won’t let you profit from it.”

Recognition & Reflection
Meghan Trainor, 31, was recently honored as a Billboard Women in Music Hitmaker. While thrilled by the recognition, she expressed disappointment that “so many of the questions (and comments) were focused on my body instead of my music… or the decade of hard work that got me here.”

Her Health Journey
In a heartfelt Instagram post, Meghan opened up: “I’ve been on a journey to be the healthiest, strongest version of myself for my kids and for me.” She credited working with a dietitian, making major lifestyle changes, exercising with a trainer, and using Mounjaro—a medication approved for weight loss. “Science is the secret,” she later told Entertainment Tonight. “I was working out so incorrectly… I’m trying to bio-hack my body.”

Personal Growth
Following the birth of her second child, Meghan revealed, “I feel great.” She previously shared losing 60 pounds after her first son, saying, “I was in a really dark place… I was fighting.”

Moving Forward
“Here’s to celebrating talent, growth, and the power of putting yourself first,” Meghan wrote. “Let’s keep shifting the convo to what REALLY matters.”

TikTok creator Hannah Campbell has shared the heartbreaking news of her 10-month-old daughter’s passing. Elliana Rose, who had a rare genetic skin disorder called junctional epidermolysis bullosa (JEB), died peacefully on April 7.

“In loving memory of Ellie,” Campbell posted on TikTok. “She passed peacefully last night, wrapped in love.” In another message, she added, “I’m heartbroken, and I’m angry. No child should have to endure what she did. EB stole her from us.”

Elliana was diagnosed at just two weeks old. JEB causes fragile skin that blisters easily—even internally. “It was really sad to hear that she probably won’t live past her first year of life,” Campbell said in an earlier interview.

Despite the immense challenges, Campbell used her platform to raise awareness. “Every child with EB deserves a future without pain,” she once shared. Her GoFundMe, Elliana’s Hope for Healing, has raised over $13,000 to support other families and fund research.

“Making every moment an adventure, knowing each one is a gift,” she once wrote. “Thank you for loving her with us.”
