'Parasite' Actor Lee Sun-kyun Dead At 48 From Apparent Suicide ...

Published | Updated

Lee Sun-kyun – best known for his 2019 role in the Oscar-winning film "Parasite" – has died by suicide while under investigation for using illegal drugs.

The South Korean actor was found dead in his car Wednesday in the capital city of Seoul after Lee's manager reported him missing to police, according to CNN.

Seoul officials told the network Lee's death was "presumed to be suicide," as forensic investigators were seen putting up police tape where Lee's car was discovered.

Police in Incheon, a city that borders Seoul, interrogated Lee on three occasions during the criminal probe into his possible narcotics use.

Lee admitted to consuming drugs, but claimed he was tricked into taking them and blackmailed, as he ended up suing the extortionist. Cops were allegedly tipped off about Lee's narcotics use just before he filed the lawsuit.

As part of the police investigation, Lee was repeatedly drug tested, but the results always came back negative, CNN said.

Officers last questioned Lee on December 23, keeping him detained for 19 hours before releasing him.

Two suspects – a man and a woman – were arrested in connection with the narcotics investigation.

On Tuesday – the day before Lee was found dead – he requested through his attorney that police administer a lie detector test to him and the two people who were arrested. It's not clear if the three were given the polygraph exam.

In the comedy-thriller, "Parasite," Lee had a starring role as Park Dong-ik – the father of a wealthy family targeted by an indigent clan of schemers who infiltrate their household. The film snagged 4 Oscars at the 2020 Academy Awards, including Best Picture.

Lee was 48.

TOMMY DORFMAN ACCUSES DELTA STAFF OF TRANSPHOBIA

Published | Updated

Transgender actress Tommy Dorfman has lambasted Delta Air Lines ... accusing them of committing a human rights violation for "incessantly" misgendering her during a spat.

THE TENSE EXCHANGE

The heated showdown at NYC's LaGuardia Airport was caught on camera by the "13 Reasons Why" star ... who alleges the staff referred to her by the wrong pronouns -- claiming that one did so "intentionally."

It's unclear what precedes the situation ... but in the viral TikTok clip you can hear Tommy -- who uses she/her pronouns -- saying, "What about when a Delta employee misgenders you intentionally?"

To deal with Tommy, the gate agent tells another person to wait their turn, saying ... "While she's talk -- while he's talking."

Tommy -- who came out as trans in July 2021 -- is none too pleased ...  informing him that he's misgendered her again -- though the agent tells her it wasn't intentional and if she wanted to take it personally, that was on her.

He also slams Tommy for being condescending .... threatening to have Port Authority escort her out ... and asking her if the commotion was really necessary days before Christmas.

But, Tommy's standing her ground ... writing in her caption she was met with transphobia and arrest threats at LaGuardia when merely advocating for herself -- adding she didn't realize it was condescending to flag a human rights violation when being misgendered.

A Delta spokesperson tells TMZ ... "We’re aware of the video and looking into the matter, including reaching out to our customer to understand more about what occurred."

Ken Hudson Campbell 'Home Alone' Actor Thanks Fans ... 'Moved Beyond Belief' Amid Health Scare

Published | Updated

"Home Alone" actor Ken Hudson Campbell is thanking his fans for all their support following a recent health scare involving mouth cancer.

Ken's daughter, Michaela, set up a GoFundMe page to help cover his medical bills ... posting a Christmas update on his condition written by the man himself with a smiling photo of him in a Santa hat.

In case you forgot, Ken's smiling Santa image was an homage, of course, to his role as Kris Kringle in the 1990 "Home Alone" movie.

Ken wrote that he was "moved beyond belief by your generosity and well wishes," while also offering his fans a "Merry Christmas and Happy Everything."

According to Michaela, Ken was diagnosed with cancer in October after a tumor started growing on the bottom of his mouth. Since Ken lost his SAG-AFTRA insurance after the COVID pandemic in 2022, they were forced to start the GoFundMe to raise money for his medical bills.

He had surgery a few weeks ago and had the cancer removed, and it looks like Ken is in much better spirits now ... and just in time for the holidays.

BTW, his GoFundMe has gotten a ton of traffic, accumulating over $119,000 of its targeted goal of $150,000 since the page first appeared earlier this month. As we reported, several of his celebrity friends have already chipped in, including Jeff Garlin, Tim Meadows, and Steve Carell.

Alaskan Mother Presumed Dead After Trying To Save Dog from Frozen River

Published | Updated

A mother of 4 in Alaska has gone missing and is presumed dead after risking her life to try and save her dog from drowning in a frozen river.

45-year-old Amanda Richmond Rogers was taking a hike Saturday in Anchorage with her dog, Groot, and her husband, Brian, celebrating Amanda and Brian's 18th wedding anniversary, when Groot tried getting some water from a nearby river.

The Irish Wolfhound's weight broke the ice below him and he fell into a small hole in the Eagle River. Amanda and Brian sprang into action to rescue the pup ... and Brian says his wife, an ER nurse, didn't hesitate to jump into the frigid water to save him.

Brian says he last spotted Amanda swimming downstream under the ice, but that was the last time he saw them ... adding, "I waited and waited and am still waiting."

Rescue teams are still on the hunt to find Groot and Amanda's bodies, Alaska State Troopers, the state's Dive Search, Rescue, and Recovery Team, the Solstice Search, and the Alaska Wildlife Troopers are all on the hunt.

The search came to a brief halt on Tuesday when equipment froze up ... but when the sun came up Wednesday morning, the search team began deploying underwater drones, specialist rescue dogs, and sonar equipment to help with the efforts.

The family has received condolences from friends, family, and others since the tragic incident ... Brian says, "To me and our four boys, [Amanda] died a hero."

BARRY KEOGHAN 'SALTBURN' NUDE SCENE WAS ALL ME No Prosthetic Needed!!

Published | Updated

Barry Keoghan is the total package ... 'cause that was all him in the naked scene of his new movie "Saltburn."

Be wary; there are some spoilers ahead ... near the end of the Amazon Prime flick, Barry's character Oliver bares it all while busting out a celebratory dance -- with fans shocked to learn he wasn't wearing a prosthetic penis.

And, Barry has confirmed no extra props were required ... saying he embraced his "ownership" and "full confidence" -- though only after 11 takes because he wasn't comfortable at first.

It wasn't long before he felt empowered ... asking the crew to re-take the shot over and over again ... adding to Entertainment Weekly he quickly forgot he was in the buff because of the comfortable on-set environment.

Barry also says that disrobing was what his character required ... cause he could do whatever he wanted in the grand manor that features heavily in the movie ... even if that meant stripping to his barest and waltzing around like he owned the place.

"Saltburn" is centered on Oxford scholarship recipient Oliver Quick, taken in for the summer by his wealthy pal friend Felix Catton ... played by Jacob Elordi.

The movie sees a series of disturbing twists and turns... with Oliver pulling off a grand masterplan to inherit Felix's mammoth fortune ... hence the naked, triumphant dancing.

Simone Biles Fans Bombard Jonathan Owens' IG ... After His Controversial Remarks

Published

Simone Biles' fans are going after her hubby, Jonathan Owens ... relentlessly trolling him on Instagram after the NFL player controversially said he was the "catch" in their relationship.

The Green Bay Packers safety made the remarks on "The Pivot" podcast last week -- saying he didn't know who Biles was when he first met her ... while going on to call himself the real prize in the couple.

I WAS THE CATCH!!!

The comments were met with outrage -- because, after all, Biles is one of the greatest female competitors to ever walk the Earth -- and her fans are still clearly pissed over them ... with many taking to his social media page recently to throw barbs.

"Merry Christmas to Mr. & Mrs. Simone Biles❤️," one commenter wrote on Owens' Christmas Day post.

"I don’t even know his name," another fan said. "I just know him as Simone Biles's husband."

Others took shots at Owens' bank account ... writing, "Girl have him sign a prenup."

The couple, however, seems unbothered by the backlash -- in fact, Biles actually rushed to his defense days ago, supporting Owens in an IG post.

As for "The Pivot" cohost Ryan Clark, he clearly believes the whole drama is overblown ... saying he thinks Owens' remark was nothing more than an "innocent joke."

SCHINDLER'S LIST ORIGINAL COPY ON SALE FOR $1.8M

Published | Updated

The only copy of Schindler's List ever for sale is hitting the market again ... following a price cut.

The rare historical relic is currently on sale for $1.8 million through memorabilia company Moments in Time ... via a collector who obtained the list from the family of Itzhak Stern -- Schindler's accountant and right-hand man.

Over the years, the list has been up for sale a few times ... with its asking price always over $2M -- the highest being $2.5M ... though it's never had any takers.

The collector hopes the lowered price is more affordable ... with the site gushing over the opportunity to "acquire an item of truly incredible magnitude."

This list, dated April 18, 1945, is the penultimate list of a total of 7 ... coming in at 14 pages long and listing 801 names.

It's also one of the only 4 lists in existence -- one is homed at the Holocaust Museum in Washington D.C ... the other two are in Israel's Holocaust Remembrance Center Yad Vashem, in Jerusalem.

The sale of this item is especially relevant today ... given the rapidly emerging antisemitism amid the Israel-Palestine conflict.

The docs were used by German industrialist Oskar Schindler ... who saved more than 1,200 Jews' lives during the Holocaust by employing them in his enamelware and ammunition factories.

He was the subject of Steven Spielberg's critically acclaimed 1993 film "Schindler's List" ... with the Liam Neeson/Sir Ben Kingsley-starring movie bagging 7 Oscars.

Allyson Felix Enjoying 2nd Pregnancy ... No Training Or Drama!

Published | Updated

11-time Olympic medalist Allyson Felix says pregnancy is like a walk in the park this time around ... telling TMZ Sports she loves not having to worry about training or chaos!!

Of course, Felix became an advocate for maternal protections in women's sports after she lost sponsorship money during her first pregnancy ... leaving her feeling abandoned for having a kid on the way.

Now that she's retired from the sport, she is more at ease with the process ... especially since she doesn't have an early wakeup call.

"It's totally different," the track and field star said this week. "I wasn't dealing with all the drama from before."

"Now, yeah, I don't have to train at 4 o'clock in the morning and do all that crazy stuff so that part is good."

Felix, along with her husband, American sprinter Kenneth Ferguson, announced on Thanksgiving they are expecting their second child in April 2024 ... and the couple -- who married in 2018 --  are having a boy.

The new bundle of joy is five years after Felix's life-threatening experience with her first pregnancy ... when she had to get an emergency C-section following a development of pre-eclampsia at 32 weeks.

"I know a lot now and I kinda know the risks and everything that I experienced before," Felix said, "So, that part, you know, that part is better."

The traumatic incident motivated Felix -- who retired in 2022 -- to speak out for expecting black women, who research says deal with racial bias in the health care system.

She's also working hard on her shoe company Spaysh and being part of the IOC Athletes Commission to support track stars like herself.

There's more -- Felix gave us her thoughts on Sha'Carri Richardson, who has been killin' track and field since her 2021 Tokyo Olympics controversy ... and despite their previous beef, she has nothing but good things to say.

'Jeopardy!' Champ Austin Rogers Ken Earned Sole Daily Host Duty ... Mayim Should Do Specials

Published

One of the biggest "Jeopardy!" champs of all time says the show is in good hands with Ken Jennings ... but he doesn't want Mayim Bialik to vanish completely.

We got Austin Rogers -- who went on a major hot streak in 2017 -- at Gaf East, a bar he just bought in New York City, and we asked him about Mayim announcing her exit as one of the "Jeopardy!" hosts.

Austin says the show will be just fine with Ken taking on an even larger role. Ken's become synonymous with "Jeopardy!" and AR feels he's a big enough name now to soften the blow of Mayim's departure.

Ken Is The Man For The Job

Another "Jeopardy!" champ, Amy Schneider agrees ... telling us Ken is the right choice for the everyday hosting gig, in part because he's a big hit with the contestants.

While Mayim says Sony brass told her she won't be hosting the syndicated daily show, the studio is leaving the door open for her to host special episodes ... like "Celebrity Jeopardy" and other primetime tournaments -- and Austin explains why she's a good fit there.

TMZ broke the story ... Mayim's absence during the writers' strike made Sony execs realize they didn't need 2 hosts, and ultimately her loss was Ken's gain.

Austin says Mayim was still right to stand in solidarity with the writers, and he hopes she remains involved ... even if it's not on a daily basis.

Ken's not on Alex Trebek's level yet -- but Austin says he's doing a good job filling those massive shoes.

Mariah Carey Ex Bryan Tanaka Speaks Out About Split ... 'Mutual' Breakup

Published | Updated

Mariah Carey's ex, Bryan Tanaka, is breaking his silence on their split ... something he claims was a "mutual" separation.

The singer's backup dancer posted the lengthy statement Tuesday, starting by saying, "Our decision to embark on different paths is mutual, and as we navigate these separate journeys, we do so with profound respect and an overwhelming sense of gratitude for the invaluable time we’ve shared."

He goes on to say the memories they've shared over 7 years together will always be "etched in my heart" -- expressing love for "Mariah and her incredible children, whose warmth and kindness have enriched my life in ways words cannot capture."

Bryan finished by saying, "The outpouring of love and support from fans has been a beacon of strength, and I am extremely grateful for the encouragement that continues to uplift me."

While Bryan says the split is mutual, it seems this statement is coming just from him and not both of them -- meaning Mariah has yet to speak publicly about the split.

As we reported, Mariah and Bryan started dating back in 2016 ... but reports claimed Bryan was looking to have children with Mariah, but MC wasn't on the same page.

Leading up to initial reports, Mariah was spotted on a solo shopping trip in Aspen, Colorado ... seemingly hinting that she's back on the market, since he's usually by her side when they head to the mountain.

He's also been notably absent from her shows, despite Mariah currently touring ... so it seems this is the reason why.

Brazilian Model Blasts Country's Laws ... After Arrested For Being Topless

Published | Updated

Brazilian model Caroline Werner thinks officials in her country are a bunch of boobs ... this after she got arrested when hers were on full display while walking her dogs.

Here's the deal, Caroline and her dogs were strolling through Brazil's Balneário Camboriú earlier this year, and the model/business owner took to the streets topless ... and the 37-year-old ended up getting taken into custody for the look.

She's reportedly facing up to a year of prison time for the topless walk, but now, Caroline's calling out the legal system in Brazil, which, according to her, is absurd.

For one, Caroline's pointing out that men everywhere are shirtless, but 'cause she has breasts, it's forbidden for her to do the same ... and she's not so sure gender equality is stepping up to the plate in her country.

She says she's been topless in other countries with no problems, but when she was approached by cops and immediately detained, it was pretty alarming -- and she claims she was denied a phone call to her lawyer once taken to the station.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Caroline thinks it was totally blown out of proportion ... and she's now calling out the laws within the country for being unfair, according to her.
