Loran Livingston devoted several minutes of his sermon at Central Church of North Carolina, in Charlotte, to trashing  Donald Trump's MAGA bible as 'disgusting' and 'blasphemous'

Three tornadoes wrecked hundreds of homes in Omaha and Elkhorn, Nebraska, and half of the town of Minden, Iowa, on Friday and there are more twisters expected over the weekend. Hundreds of homes were flattened, ripped from their foundations, or had their roofs torn off when tornadoes barreled through. More tornadoes or on the way this weekend with very severe warnings issued for Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas for Saturday and Iowa to East Texas on Sunday.

Plenty of Hollywood stars are quite short - under 5ft5in, that is - but it's hard to tell in front of the camera because they are styled to look statuesque. Platform heels, finely tailored clothing and slender frames help deceive the eye into thinking they have height when they hit the spotlight at events. On screen they may look larger than life as well, as the camera shoots them in certain ways. 

Lemon had appeared alongside Scott Galloway, professor of marketing at the NYU Stern School of Business on Friday's episode of 'Real Time with Bill Maher'. Their discussion focused largely on the ongoing college campus protests around the country, and the difference between activists of today from years past. During the interview, Lemon can be heard saying: 'I'm different than you guys. I'm a black gay man, so I live in uncomfortable spaces all the time.'

The slower pace away from the hustle and bustle of cities combined with the low cost of living and low crime rate makes Camp Hill a desirable location. It was ranked top of a list of small towns to retire in by GoBankingRates.com who surveyed communities across the country that have populations between 1,000 and 10,000 residents. Camp Hill scored 92 on its livability index thanks to its low monthly cost of $3,356 and low crime rate of 9.4 per 1,000 residents.

A US citizen is one of two hostages to speak in a new kidnap video released by Hamas today. Keith Siegel, 64, appears alongside Omri Miran, 46, in the edited three-minute video, which sees the pair call for a hostage deal between Hamas and Israel . The proof-of-life clip seems to have been recorded recently with Mr Siegel mentioning the Passover holiday, which began on April 22, and Mr Miran saying he has been held captive for 202 days, which suggests he was speaking on April 26.

Travis Kelce has opened up on how his upbringing prepared him for life in the spotlight as Taylor Swift's boyfriend. Kelce's profile has skyrocketed since he started dating the pop sensation, whose new album includes songs seemingly about the Kansas City Chiefs star. So far the tight end has not let the romance affect his performances on the field. Last season, he helped the Chiefs win a second successive Super Bowl. 

Nevaeh Downs, 18, of Grand Rapids, died in the collision with her best friend Ella Vece driving Downs' car at the time of the crash. According to an incident report obtained by Target 8 , the two had been trying to jump the steepest hill in Plainfield Township. In January of this year, two months after the fatal crash, prosecutors charged Vece, 20, with reckless driving causing death, which is a felony.

He's hung up Ken's Stetson but Ryan Gosling's apparent passion for plastic might extend beyond playing Barbie's boyfriend. With a waxy shine and seemingly inflated cheeks, 43-year-old Gosling is causing something of a stir among disconcerted fans on social media. Has he been primping and pumping, some wonder? He looks more like Amy Schumer than the fine-featured leading man we all adore, others say. And while it's not known if he's turned to the usual arsenal of injectables in an attempt to turn back the clock, he's certainly not the only male A-lister whose looking rather more chipmunk than chiseled of late. Indeed, as a coterie of Hollywood heartthrobs reach a certain age, it seems that tucks and tweakments are no longer just the preserve of our favorite female stars.

NEW At first glance, Andrii is a typical university student. Aged 21, he has a mop of fair hair, blue eyes and a gentle smile. Unlike most students, however, he has been risking torture and death behind enemy lines, smuggling out secret intelligence to the Ukrainian resistance. Andrii was born and brought up in Mariupol , the port city that was besieged and then invaded by Russia in the first two months of the war in early 2022. The brave Ukrainian soldiers who remained in the city's steelworks for weeks under terrifying bombardment came to embody the nation's defiance against overwhelming firepower. A true patriot, Andrii couldn't sit by while his country collapsed. So, unarmed and with just a smartphone, he began photographing documents, buildings and locations that he felt would be useful for the Ukrainian armed forces.

The Duke of Sussex, 39, wore an assortment of medals on his jacket as he named combat medic Sergeant First Class Elizabeth Marks the Military Times Soldier of the Year, including three marking his grandmother's various Jubilees this century. Royal observers were quick to point out that absent from the prince's lapels was the Coronation medal given to him and others who were involved in King Charles' formal ascension to the throne last May. Experts believe the absence of the honor could be a snub to his father. The medals also match those Harry chose to wear as he attended the Coronation. However, critics on social media have now criticized Harry's decision to wear the medals at all, dubbing them 'participation medals' and asking: 'Out of everyone in the world they chose Harry?!'

The furious former NCAA swimmer shared a post from an audience member who attended a PWHL game between Ottawa and Boston on Wednesday night at TD Place in Canada . In the post, Michelle Alleva recounted her experience, stating, 'Before the game, the audience was asked to read the following pledge out loud together.' 'Part of the intention is to train the audience (which was full of young girls) to accept boys in their sports and to vilify people who don't,' she continued. Gaines labeled the game as 'insane' and wrote, 'Literal brainwashing. This is equivalent to the propaganda spread in Nazi Germany.'

California is well known for its red hot property market - with the average home in the state now valued at more than $1 million. Yet despite these eye-watering headline property prices, affordable real estate in the Golden State does still exist - if you know where you look. Indeed, there are nine towns where homes can be snatched up for just $150,000 or less. The only catch is that you may need to venture a fair way off the beaten track.

Model Grace Boor has lifted the lid on her Miami trip with Ryan Garcia, admitting he's nothing like his social media persona and revealing she could be open to dating him. The American boxer immediately went to south Florida to celebrate his stunning victory over Devin Haney in Brooklyn last week. But days after his supposed engagement to Australian porn star Savannah Bond in the build up to the fight, Garcia was spotted galivanting with not one, but two different women.

A family was left in tears after watching River their peacock, which they rescued from his abusive previous owners, be brutally killed by the sadistic group on CCTV footage. River's owner, Alison Carter, 57, posted the footage from a neighbour's CCTV camera of the suspects on Facebook , showing five boys and one girl firing at the peacock who was perched in a tree. One member of the twisted group messaged her daughter Macey, 23, threatening: 'Your peacock is 6ft under and you are going to be next'. In the sickening footage three of the boys are seen pelting River more than 20 times from the road before climbing over the fence on to the roof of a private property to carry on their assault on the innocent bird. A petrified and injured River, who Alison says would have 'trusted' the group of strangers, is seen falling out of the tree, flapping around in distress and cowering in a corner.

Jessica Law, a real estate agent has unveiled a mystery dungeon below a house that had been listed for sale and insists that she has never seen anything like it before. The dungeon has functional water system and electricity. Viewers have since speculated on the purpose of the room

Olivia Dunne has a major life decision ahead of her. The LSU gymnast has nearly exhausted her collegiate eligibility while her star power only grows. As possibly college sports biggest beneficiary during the name, image and likeness era, Dunne will continue to rake in the dough should she stay at LSU. The 21-year-old social-media sensation could also expand her reach while no longer under the NCAA's guidelines. 

When Jane, 86, attended the TIME Earth Awards Gala in New York on Wednesday, she was joined by her stunning granddaughter Viva. This isn't the first time that Viva, 21 - the only daughter of Jane's eldest child, filmmaker Vanessa Vadim and her musician ex-husband Matt Arnett - has reaped in the benefits of being related to one of the biggest actresses on the globe. A budding photographer and fierce activist - like her grandmother - Viva enjoys an extremely lavish lifestyle, which she loves to flaunt on her Instagram, and is already on course to become Hollywood's next nepo baby. She's often seen jetting across the globe to places like Saint-Tropez, Paris, California, New Zealand , Africa, and Costa Rica, hanging out with celebrities, and scoring invites to elite star-studded events.

In Tempe, 15 miles east of Phoenix and home to Arizona State University (ASU), Culdesac is making its name for itself as 'the first car-free neighborhood built from scratch' in the country. Its first lot of residents, numbering almost 40, moved in 2023, but eventually Culdesac aims to house 1,000 residents in 760 apartments on its 17-acre plot by next year. At the time of writing, rental prices start from $1,550 per month, which can get you a 635 sqft studio, and you can lease a fully furnished two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit with 1,019 sqft from $2,641.

A stylist may well be on the Meta payroll for the first time, as Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan. The couple, who have three daughters and live in a 'fortress' on Hawaii, are cutting much cooler figures these days. Far from the clean cut, conservative attire the couple, worth £138billion, are usually seen in, their new look might be described more as 'mob chic' these days. At a recent martial arts event in Las Vegas, Priscilla wore a low-cut black dress and donned sunglasses indoors, while Zuckerberg went for a white tee, baggy pants and silver chain. (The couple pictured in 2012, 2024 and on April 13th at the UFC 300 fight meet in Vegas)

Videos circulating on social media show people sitting and at times, jumping on top of buses as the heavy-duty vehicles travel across New York City. Viewers have been heavily criticizing people who are taking risks on Instagram. The trend has emerged months after the MTA cracked down on subway surfing after the death of a teenager.

A mind-boggling brainteaser is challenging people to exercise their minds by attempting to solve it in just seven seconds. At first glance, the bright image simply depicts a sea of ice cream cones with different flavours, colours and shapes, against a cream background. Only those with incredible eyesight will be able to spot the hidden cat within such a short amount of time - are you up to the task?
