Paige Spiranac’s confesses her golf game is ‘really struggling’
We are sorry to report that Instagram’s original golf girl, Paige Spiranac, has a case of the yips.
The gorgeous golfer took to social media to reveal that her game is “really struggling” as of late – and even a trip to the Bahamas to play at the Royal Blue Golf Club hasn’t cured the yips.

But we suppose it’s nothing a hot dog can’t fix – Spiranac’s snack of choice at the turn on any course.
Johnny Depp bursts out laughing after bodyguard asked about his penis
Prior to Wednesday, when Amber Heard first took the stand in her ongoing defamation trial against ex-husband Johnny Depp, there was Depp’s bodyguard who provided testimony that made the courtroom – and Depp – giggle uncontrollably, reported Mark Daniell.
Malcolm Connolly was on the stand when he was asked by Heard’s lawyer if Depp had ever whipped his penis out, but the bodyguard was feisty and fired back that that was something he would probably remember.
Sigh. Remember when there were laughable moments in this trial? Now it’s just a dumpster on fire rolling straight to hell.
Naomi Judd died by suicide: Report
In a statement announcing the death of country legend Naomi Judd last weekend, her daughters, Wynonna and Ashley, revealed they “lost our beautiful mother to the disease of mental illness.”
Two days later, it was reported that Judd took her own life after her longtime struggle. May she finally be at peace.
KINSELLA: Overturning Roe v. Wade will have big Canadian political consequences
The possible overturning of Roe v. Wade will have big Canadian political consequences, reported Warren Kinsella, who pointed out how Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will use abortion against his conservative opponents — specifically, Pierre Poilievre, the frontrunner in the Conservative Party leadership race and someone who has opposed abortion for most of his career.

Naturally, that would put Poilievre in a political pickle, particularly when it comes to most Canadian women who will vote to maintain control over their bodies. So unless Poilievre has abandoned his previous positions on abortion, Trudeau is somewhere, cartwheeling.
Netflix ‘quietly cancels’ series created by Duchess of Sussex
Meghan Markle was cancelled – by Netflix.
Okay, not Meghan herself but Pearl, the family-friendly animated series she was set to produce, was “quietly cancelled” by the streaming service.
Pearl would have followed the adventures of a 12-year-old girl who is inspired by influential women throughout history.
Other children’s series including Dino Daycare and Boons and Curses were also scrapped, along with Bone, Toil and Trouble and and adaptation of Roald Dahl’s The Twits.
If it’s any consolation for the Duchess of Sussex, she’s at least in good company.
