Controversial S#!T

Tom Sandoval dice que estuvo a punto de quitarse la vida durante las secuelas de su romance con Rachel Leviss.

La estrella de "Vanderpump Rules" dice que hubo momentos durante el "Scandoval" cuando "se sentía muy, muy cerca" de suicidarse.

Tom hizo la revelación el jueves durante el primer episodio de su pódcast, "Todo el mundo ama a Tom". Dice que le resaca que sintió al terminar la relación lo puso en un lugar oscuro que generó un efecto dominó que lo llevó al borde del suicidio.

Después de "Scandoval", Tom dice que su mundo empezó a derrumbarse y que no podía ver más allá de sus sentimientos. Dice que las cosas llegaron a un punto crítico un día que regresó a la casa que comparte con su ex, Ariana Madix.

Tom también recuerda una historia sobre encontrarse con el fallecido cantante de Linkin Park, Chester Bennington, unos días antes de que se suicidara en julio de 2017. Tom dijo que nunca entendió cómo Chester podría estar en ese estado de ánimo hasta que se encontró en medio del "Scandoval".

Afortunadamente, Tom dice que tuvo algunos amigos que estuvieron ahí para él a pesar de todo el drama, y él les está dando las gracias por básicamente salvar su vida.

Recordemos que Rachel también tuvo que lidiar con sus propios problemas de salud mental causados por la misma razón. Incluso tuvo que pasar unos meses en un centro de salud mental.

Rachel terminó dejando el programa, pero Tom estuvo de vuelta filmando la temporada más reciente y será interesante ver si habló de sus pensamientos suicidas en cámara o si se lo guardó todo para su pódcast.

Tom Sandoval says he was close to taking his own life during the aftermath of his affair with Rachel Leviss.

The "Vanderpump Rules" star says there were times during the Scandoval when he "felt very, very close" to committing suicide.

Tom makes the sobering revelation Thursday in the first episode of his podcast, "Everybody Loves Tom," and says the backlash from the affair put him in a bad headspace that had a domino effect that brought him to the brink of suicide.

Following Scandoval, Tom says his world started collapsing and he couldn't see outside his feelings. He says things reached a head one day when he got back to the home he shares with his ex, Ariana Madix.

Tom also recalls a story about running into late Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington a few days before he committed suicide in July 2017 ... with Tom saying he never understood how Chester could be in that frame of mind until he found himself in the middle of the Scandoval.

Thankfully, Tom says he had a few friends who were there for him despite all the drama ... and he's giving them props for basically saving his life.

Remember ... Rachel also dealt with mental health issues over the bombshell affair, spending a few months in a mental health facility.

Rachel ended up quitting 'VPR' but Tom was back filming the most recent season ... and it will be interesting to see if he talked about his suicidal thoughts on camera or if he just saved it for his podcast.

10:29 AM PT -- The Red Sox just confirmed Curt Schilling did reveal Tim Wakefield's diagnosis without the former pitcher's permission ... saying in a statement Tim and his wife's "health is a deeply personal matter they intended to keep private as they navigate treatment and work to tackle this disease."

The MLB team added that the Wakefields are asking for "privacy at this time."

The wife of Red Sox legend Jason Varitek is furious with Curt Schilling for revealing Tim Wakefield's cancer diagnosis ... saying straight up on Thursday, "F*** you Curt Schilling."

The former Boston star pitcher leaked the news of Wakefield's tragic health condition on his "The Curt Schilling Baseball Show" podcast on Wednesday ... admitting at the time, "I don't even know if he wants it shared."

"But, as a Christian and a man of faith," Schilling continued, "I've seen prayer work and so I'm going to talk about it."

Schilling then revealed Wakefield -- a knuckleballer who starred for the Red Sox from 1995 to 2011 -- is battling "a very serious, very aggressive form of brain cancer."

Schilling went on to call the situation "incredibly serious" ... adding that Wakefield recently underwent surgery for the issue. Schilling then asked for prayers.

Many, however, slammed the former World Series MVP for leaking the diagnosis to the public before Wakefield could ... including Catherine Varitek, who tweeted, "F*** you Curt Schilling, that wasn’t your place!"

Schilling has yet to respond to the backlash.

For his part, Wakefield has not commented on the matter either.

Gunna está llamando la atención últimamente con su aspecto más delgado, el que dice es resultado de un montón de cardio y que ocurre principalmente en su dormitorio 👀

TMZ Hip Hop se encontró con el rapero de "Fukumean", quemando calorías en Beverly Hills, como de costumbre, y nos compartió su secreto para bajar de peso exitosamente.

Primero nos hizo el gesto de que levanta pesas, pero rápidamente aclaró que no son mancuernas las que está levantando, sino que, ¡piernas!

Estar con alguien puede ser la mejor opción, ¡sobre todo cuando estás en libertad condicional!

Gunna tiene un gran espectáculo en Los Ángeles esta noche, para igualar su reciente concierto en Nueva York, que agotó entradas, y nos dijo que disfruta interpretando hasta la última de sus canciones de su exitoso álbum "A Gfit & a Curse."

Es tal y como Cuhmunity's AD nos dijo cuando le pedimos que midiera la temperatura de Gunna en el clima del rap actual. Él predijo que L.A. le daría la bienvenida con los brazos abiertos y celebraría su música.

Gunna's turning heads lately with his new slimmed-down look ... the result of him getting in lots of cardio action, which, he hints, mostly happens in his bedroom!!! 👀

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with the "Fukumean" rapper burning down Bev Hills, per usual, and hit him up for the secret to his weight-loss success.

He gave us the pumping-iron gesture -- but quickly clarified it's not dumbbells he's lifting, instead, he's lifting legs!!!

Hey, sometimes shacking up can be your best bet, especially when you're on probation!!!

Gunna's got a big show out in L.A. tonight -- to match his recently sold-out concert in NYC -- and told us he enjoys performing every last one of his songs from his hit album "A Gfit & a Curse."

It's just as Cuhmunity's AD told us when we asked him to gauge Gunna's temp in the rap climate -- he predicted L.A. would welcome him with open arms and celebrate his music.

There's clearly no beef between Travis Hunter and Henry Blackburn ... the star players linked up less than 2 weeks after the controversial hit in the Colorado vs. Colorado State game caused outrage among fans.

The two college football stars met this week ... and literally bro-hugged it out, as someone else filmed the interaction.

Remember, Blackburn laid the wallop on Hunter -- one of the most talented players in the country -- during the September 16th game. The issue ... the hit was late, and in many fans' minds, dirty. Henry wasn't called for targeting but did receive a penalty.

Hunter's Buffaloes won a double OT thriller, 43-35. But, they did it for most of the game with Travis ... who was seriously hurt in the collision with Blackburn.

In fact, the hit has already forced the receiver/cornerback to miss time with a lacerated liver.

As for Blackburn, a Colorado State captain, he's caught hell for the play ... even receiving death threats. University police are still investigating those threats.

Despite how people on the outside felt, there were signs right away that there wasn't any beef between Trav, the Colorado team and Henry. Even Coach Prime, Deion Sanders, asked fans to leave Blackburn alone.

"Travis Hunter has forgiven him. Let's move on. That kid does not deserve that, Sanders said last week.

Hunter agreed ... saying, "It’s football at the end of the day. Stuff like that gonna happen. He did what he was supposed to do. It's football."

And, looking at the guys together, it seems everything is all good!

An all-out brawl nearly erupted during the Astros vs. Mariners tilt on Wednesday night ... and according to one Seattle player, it all started 'cause Houston pitcher Hector Neris called Julio Rodriguez a homophobic slur.

The near-dust-up on the diamond went down in the sixth inning of the Astros' pivotal game with the Mariners at T-Mobile Park ... after Neris struck out Rodriguez with a breaking ball.

The reliever was so pumped to get the Seattle superstar out, he charged at him ... and, according to Seattle Times reporter Adam Jude, Mariners third baseman Eugenio Suarez said Neris screamed an anti-gay term at Rodriguez -- causing the benches to clear.

"He started talking bad words in Spanish," Suarez said, according to Jude. "He started doing something that is not good for people who speak Spanish and understand. I was in the on-deck circle and I heard that. That pissed me off."

Players from both sides ran onto the field to protect their guys ... though, thankfully, no punches were thrown and cooler heads ultimately prevailed.

Neris downplayed it all after the game ... telling reporters, "He's my friend." Rodriguez was not available for comment. The MLB, meanwhile, has yet to address Suarez's allegations.

Britney Spears' feud with her sister Jamie Lynn is spilling into the "Dancing With the Stars" ballroom because Brit's fans are campaigning hard to take down JL ... and her dance partner is caught in the crossfire.

It's a total war zone on social media for Jamie Lynn and her pro dance partner, Alan Bersten, whose only offense is getting paired with the "Zoey 101" star.

Jamie Lynn made her first appearance on 'DWTS' Tuesday, and she's getting horrible reviews ... at least from Britney's legion of fans.

Folks are calling for Jamie Lynn to be voted out ASAP, ripping her for having "no class" and accusing her of abusing Britney and throwing her sister under the bus.

One user even says JL "looks like Ted Cruz with blonde hair." Ouch.

As for Alan ... Britney's fans say he has no shot at winning because he's chained to Jamie Lynn, and some are hoping he purposely drops her mid-dance. Oof!

Britney supporters are also wondering why 'DWTS' would even cast Jamie Lynn in the first place ... naturally, they would rather see Britney showing off her dance moves.

Of course, 'DWTS' producers would love to see Britney show up to support her sis, but, as it stands, there's a better chance of a snowball fight breaking out in hell.

Plus ... after dancing with knives, Britney has much bigger issues to deal with right now.

La disputa de Britney Spears con su hermana Jamie Lynn se está extendiendo a la sala de baile de "Dancing With the Stars" porque los fans de Brit están haciendo una dura campaña para derribar a JL... y su pareja de baile está en medio del fuego cruzado.

Es una zona de guerra total en las redes sociales para Jamie Lynn y su pareja de baile Alan Bersten, cuyo único delito es estar emparejado con la estrella de "Zoey 101".

Jamie Lynn hizo su primera aparición en 'DWTS' el martes y ya está recibiendo críticas horribles, al menos de la legión de fans de Britney.

La gente está pidiendo que Jamie Lynn sea expulsada lo antes posible, criticándola por no tener "clase" y acusándola de abusar de Britney y criticarla mientras está tan vulnerable.

Un usuario incluso dice que JL "parece Ted Cruz con el pelo rubio". Ouch.

En cuanto a Alan, los fans de Britney dicen que no tiene ninguna posibilidad de ganar porque está encadenado a Jamie Lynn y algunos están esperando que la deje caer a propósito en la mitad del baile. ¡Uf!

Los seguidores de Britney también se preguntan por qué 'DWTS' elegiría a Jamie Lynn en primer lugar, naturalmente, prefieren ver a Britney mostrando sus movimientos de baile.

Por supuesto, a los productores de 'DWTS' les encantaría que Britney se apareciera para apoyar a su hermana, pero tal y como están las cosas, hay más posibilidades de que se desate una pelea como una bola de nieve hasta el infierno.

Lil Tay is back in the public eye for the first time in 5 years ... oddly covered up and staying quiet as she arrived in Los Angeles.

The former social media-flexer was bombarded with photogs at LAX Wednesday, covered in a hoodie, mask and sunglasses. Tay wasn't alone though, flanked by security, her mom, Angela, and brother, Jason.

This obviously marks a big milestone for Tay, who hasn't been seen since her virality came to an end in 2018. Paps sprayed her with questions, but she kept her lips sealed ... hopping into a ride without saying a word.

Tay teased her trip Tuesday night, posting a pic of her passport. She's from Canada, so it was almost certain she'd be going international ... and now we know the destination.

TMZ broke the story, Lil Tay was the subject of an alleged viral death hoax last month that was posted to her Instagram account. She told us her account was "compromised by a 3rd party and used to spread jarring misinformation and rumors regarding me."

A post on her IG account Tuesday dragged her father, Christopher ... saying he was the one who faked her death, calling him an "ABUSIVE RACIST MISOGYNISTIC WOMAN BEATING FATHER."

Christopher told us the claims against him are bogus, and warned that the serious accusations could land whoever called him out in civil court.

Lil Tay está de vuelta en el ojo público por primera vez en cinco años, tras aparecer extrañamente cubierta y en silencio en su llegada a Los Ángeles.

La ex influencer fue bombardeada con fotógrafos en LAX este miércoles, mientras estaba cubierta con una sudadera con capucha, máscara y gafas de sol. Tay no estaba sola, estaba flanqueada por seguridad, su madre Angela y su hermano Jason.

Obviamente, esto marca un gran hito para Tay, que no ha sido vista desde que su popularidad llegara a su fin en 2018. Los paparazzi la abrumaron con preguntas, pero ella mantuvo los labios sellados y siguió avanzando sin decir una palabra.

Tay bromeó sobre su viaje el martes por la noche, al publicar una foto de su pasaporte. Ella es de Canadá, por lo que era casi seguro que iba a viajar internacionalmente. Ahora sabemos el destino.

TMZ dio la noticia, Lil Tay fue objeto de un engaño el mes pasado, cuando se publicó a través de su Instagram su supuesta muerte. Ella nos dijo que esta había sido "comprometida por un tercero y utilizada para difundir desinformación y rumores" sobre ella.

Un post en su cuenta de Instagram el martes arrastró a su padre, Christopher, el que decía que había sido él quien fingió su muerte, llamándolo un "PADRE ABUSIVO RACISTA MISÓGINO GOLPEADOR DE MUJERES".

Christopher nos dijo que las afirmaciones en su contra eran falsas, y advirtió que las graves acusaciones podrían aterrizar en un tribunal civil.

12:33 PM PT -- Damian Lillard acaba de hablar sobre su pase al Milwaukee en X, diciendo que está emocionado de comenzar su nuevo capítulo con los Bucks.

También dijo que se dirigirá a sus queridos fans y a la ciudad de Portland, a quienes realmente ama, en una fecha posterior.

Batman tiene oficialmente su Robin en Milwaukee. Damian Lillard se acaba de unir a Giannis Antetokounmpo después de un exitoso traspaso el miércoles.

Según Adrian Wojnarowski de ESPN, los Trail Blazers de Portland están enviando a su mejor jugador a los Bucks como parte de un acuerdo con otros tres equipos, que también incluye a los Phoenix Suns.

Mientras que los Bucks solo recibirán a Lillard en el intercambio, los Blazers conseguirán a Jrue Holiday, Deandre Ayton, Toumani Camara y la elección de primera ronda no protegida de Milwaukee de 2029 como parte del intercambio. Los Suns, por su parte, adquirirán a Jusuf Nurkic, Grayson Allen, Nassir Little y Keon Johnson.

Lillard, de 33 años, solicitó inicialmente el intercambio el 1 de julio, declarando que después de 11 temporadas en Rip City, estaba listo para un cambio de escenario.

En ese momento, se esperaba que el destino del 7 veces All-Star fuera South Beach, ya que Dame dejó claro que quería unirse a los Miami Heat.

Otros equipos, como los Toronto Raptors, los Philadelphia 76ers, los Chicago Bulls, los Boston Celtics y los Brooklyn Nets, habrían mostrado su interés por hacerse con los servicios de Dame tras la solicitud de traspaso.

Los campeones de la NBA 2021 están recibiendo una superestrella probada para hacer equipo con el Greek Freak. Lillard ha promediado 25,2 puntos, 6,7 asistencias y 4,2 rebotes por partido en su carrera.

12:33 PM PT -- Damian Lillard just spoke about his trade to Milwaukee ... keeping it short and sweet on X, saying he's excited to start his new chapter with the Bucks.

He also said he will address his beloved fans and the city of Portland, whom he truly loves, at a later date.

Batman officially has his Robin in Milwaukee ... Damian Lillard's joining Giannis Antetokounmpo after a blockbuster trade Wednesday.

According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, the Portland Trail Blazers are sending their best player to the Bucks as part of a three-team deal that also includes the Phoenix Suns.

While the Bucks will get only Lillard in the trade, the Blazers will land Jrue Holiday, Deandre Ayton, Toumani Camara and Milwaukee's 2029 unprotected first-round pick as part of the swap. The Suns, meanwhile, will acquire Jusuf Nurkic, Grayson Allen, Nassir Little and Keon Johnson in the deal.

33-year-old Lillard initially requested the trade on July 1 ... declaring after 11 seasons in Rip City, he was ready for a change of scenery.

At the time, the 7-time All-Star's destination was expected to be South Beach ... as Dame made it clear he wanted to join the Miami Heat.

Other teams -- including the Toronto Raptors, Philadelphia 76ers, Chicago Bulls, Boston Celtics and Brooklyn Nets -- reportedly showed interest in landing Dame following the trade request.

The 2021 NBA champs are getting a proven superstar to team up with the Greek Freak ... as Lillard has averaged 25.2 points, 6.7 assists and 4.2 rebounds per game in his career.

Charlamagne Tha God isn't a fan of Colin Kaepernick's open letter to the New York Jets ... saying it makes it seem like the ex-NFL QB is begging for a job at this point.

CTG had heavy critiques for Colin on Wednesday's Breakfast Club broadcast ... it's been 7 years since he was ousted from the league in a clear blackball maneuver, and CTG thinks Colin has allowed the low moments to define his story and identity.

ICYMI, J. Cole posted the letter Tuesday, revealing the 35-year-old was looking for a spot on the Jets' roster in the aftermath of Aaron Rodgers' season-ending injury during Week 1.

CTG not only thinks Colin's letter should've never been published, he thinks Cole's inclusion was incredibly "wack" and thinks Colin should speak out on his own.

The comparison to racism in America vs. NFL was also made, which CTG rejected -- calling U.S. a system that indoctrinates people into racism as opposed to Colin throwing a flag on the league, leaving everyone -- even callers -- split on the issue.
