Controversial S#!T

Susan Sarandon is facing swift backlash over her pro-Palestinian and anti-Jewish rant ... because a famous Hollywood talent agency just showed her the door.

The Oscar-winning actress is no longer being represented by United Talent Agency, where scores of staffers were upset by her strong views on the Israel-Hamas war ... according to Page Six.

Susan railed against Israel during a pro-Palestine protest Friday in New York City, and said this about Jewish people in America, specifically ... "There are a lot of people afraid of being Jewish at this time, and are getting a taste of what it feels like to be a Muslim in this country."

Grabbing a microphone at the rally, Susan also told the crowd being anti-Palestinian is the end result of American brainwashing that starts at a young age.

The controversial comments are making the rounds online, and drawing tons of criticism over social media ... and now Susan's facing consequences in real life.

Susan reportedly signed with UTA back in 2014 ... and this year she's had roles in two movies, "Blue Beetle" and "Maybe I Do," plus gigs on a few TV shows.

Susan Sarandon está enfrentando fuertes reacciones por su discurso pro-palestino y anti-judío: una famosa agencia de talentos de Hollywood decidió abandonarla.

La actriz ganadora del Oscar ya no está representada por United Talent Agency, donde decenas de empleados se molestaron por sus fuertes opiniones sobre la guerra entre Israel y Hamás, según cuenta Page Six.

Susan arremetió contra Israel durante una protesta pro-Palestina el viernes en la ciudad de Nueva York, donde dijo esto particularmente sobre los judíos en Estados Unidos: "Hay un montón de gente con miedo de ser judío en este momento, y están recibiendo una muestra de lo que se siente ser musulmán en este país".

Agarrando un micrófono, Susan también le dijo a la multitud que ser anti-palestino es el resultado del lavado de cerebro de Estados Unidos que comienza a temprana edad.

Los polémicos comentarios se están viralizando en línea y atrayendo toneladas de críticas en redes sociales, y ahora Susan se enfrenta a las consecuencias en la vida real.

Según los informes, Susan firmó con United Talent Agency en 2014 y este año ha tenido papeles en dos películas, "Blue Beetle" y "Maybe I Do", además de actuaciones en algunos programas de televisión.

Elon Musk's social media platform X is dragging a media watchdog group to court ... claiming Media Matters is engaged in a smear campaign against him and his company.

The billionaire followed up Monday with his previously announced plans to sue Media Matters in response to a recently published story suggesting pro-Nazi advertisements were running alongside organic user content ... an assertion Elon claims is BS.

According to the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Media Matters "knowingly and maliciously manufactured" side-by-side images depicting advertisements next to neo-Nazi and white nationalist posts on his X app, formerly Twitter.

X claims Media Matters is driving advertisers from Elon's platform by passing off the images as something the typical X user might encounter on the app ... something Musk says is far from true.

What's more, X alleges Media Matters went to great lengths to manipulate the X algorithm to create situations where paid posts from huge companies would appear next to racist and incendiary content.

X says Media Matters then took screenshots of the posts as the basis of a negative story ... "leaving the false impression that these pairings are anything but what they actually are: manufactured, inorganic, and extraordinarily rare."

The suit says it's all part of a wide-ranging smear campaign Media Matters is mounting against Elon and X ... claiming the group is hellbent on driving advertisers away from the platform in order to destroy Elon's company.

As we reported ... Elon announced Friday plans to file a "thermonuclear" lawsuit against Media Matters for what he says was a "fraudulent attack" on his app.

There's lots of reasons Elon's pissed ... including the fact the Media Matters report seems to have spurred a mass exodus among HUGE companies advertising on X.

Media Matters is not backing down though ... its president, Angelo Carusone, tells TMZ ... "This is a frivolous lawsuit meant to bully X’s critics into silence. Media Matters stands behind its reporting and looks forward to winning in court."

Es oficial. La demanda de Cassie contra Diddy, en la que alegaba que la violó e involucró en trata de personas, ha sido desestimada.

De acuerdo con documentos legales obtenidos por TMZ, el caso fue terminado a los ojos de la ley el lunes en Nueva York. El documento dice: "De conformidad con un acuerdo entre las partes, el demandante desestima esta acción, con perjuicio y sin costos u honorarios para cualquiera de las partes".

Como informamos, Cassie y Diddy anunciaron que habían llegado a un acuerdo el viernes. Cassie dijo: "He decidido resolver este asunto de forma amistosa en términos en los que tengo cierto nivel de control. Quiero dar las gracias a mi familia, a mis fans y a mis abogados por su apoyo incondicional". El comunicado de Diddy decía: "Hemos decidido resolver este asunto amistosamente. Deseo a Cassie y a su familia todo lo mejor. Con amor".

El acuerdo fue extremadamente rápido, teniendo en cuenta que Cassie solo había presentado su demanda el jueves.

Sin embargo, el abogado de Diddy, Ben Brafman, fue directo en decirnos: "Solo para que quede claro, la decisión de resolver la demanda, especialmente en 2023, no es de ninguna manera una admisión de delito. La decisión del Sr. Combs de llegar a un acuerdo en la demanda no socava en modo alguno su rotunda negación de las acusaciones. Se alegra de que hayan llegado a un acuerdo mutuo y le desea lo mejor a la Sra. Ventura".

Diddy fue visto el sábado fuera de su casa de Star Island en Miami con aspecto angustiado, por decir lo menos.

La demanda fue impactante, con afirmaciones que hablaban de tráfico de personas, consumo de drogas y violación, incluyendo un incidente de 2018 en que Diddy supuestamente fue a la casa de Cassie y la forzó a tener relaciones sexuales.

Cassie también acusó a Diddy de ser agresivo con ella físicamente, golpeándola y pisoteándola varias veces a lo largo de su larga relación.

It's official ... Cassie's lawsuit against Diddy -- where she alleged he raped her and was involved in human trafficking -- has been dismissed.

According to legal docs, obtained by TMZ, the case was ended in the eyes of the law Monday in New York. The document reads, "Pursuant to an agreement between the parties, Plaintiff hereby dismisses this action, with prejudice and without costs or fees to either party."

As we reported, it was Friday when both Cassie and Diddy announced they had settled the lawsuit ... Cassie stated, "I have decided to resolve this matter amicably on terms that I have some level of control. I want to thank my family, fans, and lawyers for their unwavering support." Diddy's statement read, "We have decided to resolve this matter amicably. I wish Cassie and her family all the best. Love."

The settlement was extremely quick, considering Cassie had only filed her lawsuit Thursday.

However, Diddy's attorney, Ben Brafman, was direct, telling us ... "Just so we’re clear, a decision to settle a lawsuit, especially in 2023, is in no way an admission of wrongdoing. Mr. Combs‘ decision to settle the lawsuit does not in any way undermine his flat-out denial of the claims. He is happy they got to a mutual settlement and wishes Ms. Ventura the best."

Diddy was seen Saturday outside his Star Island home in Miami looking distressed, to say the least.

The lawsuit was shocking -- with claims of human trafficking, drug use and rape -- including one incident Cassie says happened in 2018 when Diddy allegedly came over to her home after she'd tried to break up with him and forced sex on her.

Cassie also accused Diddy of being physical with her, beating and stomping her several times throughout their long relationship.

La plataforma de X de Elon Musk está arrastrando a un grupo de vigilancia de los medios de comunicación a los tribunales, alegando que Media Matters está llevando a cabo una campaña de desprestigio contra él y su empresa.

El multimillonario siguió el lunes con sus planes previamente anunciados para demandar a Media Matters en respuesta a una historia recientemente publicada que sugiere anuncios pro-nazis se estaban ejecutando junto con el contenido orgánico de usuario, una afirmación que Elon afirma que es mentira.

De acuerdo con la demanda obtenida por TMZ, Media Matters "a sabiendas y maliciosamente a creado" mensajes que muestran anuncios junto a neonazis y nacionalistas blancos en su aplicación X, antes Tuiter.

X afirma que Media Matters está ahuyentando a los anunciantes de la plataforma de Elon haciendo pasar las imágenes por algo que el usuario típico de X podría encontrar en la aplicación, algo que Musk dice que está lejos de ser cierto.

Lo que es más, X alega que Media Matters hizo todo lo posible para manipular el algoritmo para crear situaciones en las que los mensajes pagados de grandes empresas aparecerían junto a contenido racista e incendiario.

X dice que Media Matters tomó capturas de pantalla de los puestos como la base de una historia negativa: "dejando la falsa impresión de que estos emparejamientos son cualquier cosa menos lo que realmente son: fabricados, inorgánicos y extraordinariamente raros".

La demanda dice que todo es parte de una amplia campaña de desprestigio que Media Matters está montando contra Elon y X, alegando que el grupo está empeñado en alejar a los anunciantes de la plataforma con el fin de destruir la compañía de Elon.

Como informamos, Elon anunció el viernes los planes para presentar una demanda "termonuclear" contra Media Matters por lo que dice que fue un "ataque fraudulento" contra su aplicación.

Hay muchas razones por las que Elon está enfadado, entre ellas el hecho de que el informe de Media Matters parece haber provocado un éxodo masivo entre las GRANDES empresas que se anuncian en X.

Sin embargo, Media Matters no está dando marcha atrás, su presidente, Angelo Carusone, le dice a TMZ: "Esta es una demanda frívola destinada a intimidar a los críticos de X en silencio. Media Matters respalda su información y espera ganar en los tribunales".

Kareem Jackson has been suspended yet again ... this time, the NFL levied a four-game ban on the Denver Broncos safety after it says he illegally hit Joshua Dobbs during a violent play on Sunday night.

The tackle happened just seconds into Denver's tilt with the Minnesota Vikings, when Jackson launched himself into Dobbs' face while trying to bring down the QB.

Replays of the hit show Jackson tagged Dobbs in the chin area with the crown of his helmet -- a big no-no, according to the NFL exec Jon Runyan, who announced the suspension Monday afternoon.

"You had an unobstructed path to your opponent and the illegal contact could have been avoided," Runyan told Jackson when making the announcement.

"Illegal acts that are flagrant and jeopardize the safety of players will not be tolerated."

This is the second time Jackson has been slapped with a suspension for his play on the field ... back on Oct. 23, he was also banned four games for illegally hitting Packers tight end Luke Musgrave in the head and neck area.

Jackson, however, appealed the ruling ... and had the ban reduced to two games.

Nick Hogan's fresh DUI arrest is opening some old wounds for the family of the man who was severely injured in the guy's 2007 crash -- and they think Nick hasn't learned his lesson.

TMZ talked to John Graziano's mother, Debra ... who says she isn't surprised over Nick's latest bust -- telling us he appears to have been as careless now as he was almost 20 years ago when he got into another car wreck as a teen -- which changed her son's life forever.

While it remains to be seen if Nick will be formally charged in this new case ... Debra says she believes his past incident with John -- who suffered severe brain damage in '07, riding passenger alongside Nick at the time -- should be factored into whatever happens here.

To Debra, the fact Nick got popped again all these years later shows a "total lack of respect for what (he) did to another person’s life and you’re still driving reckless."

She adds, "I can only pray that at some point in his life, while he still has the chance, that he turns his life around. Until then I hope no one else gets hurt." Debra goes on to say that the '07 accident and the saga that followed continues to take its toll on her/her loved ones.

Debra says, "I grieve the virtual loss of my son on a daily basis. I thank God daily that at least I have John here with us at home." She says while John has lost most of his ability to function normally, she's grateful he's alive and surrounded by people who care about him.

Kesha's apparently showing solidarity with Cassie after her allegations against Diddy -- 'cause she dropped a key lyric in her most famous song ... that mentions him by name.

The singer was performing live in L.A. Saturday night ... and while she was crooning to her smash hit single, 'TiK ToK,' folks noticed a change in the wording -- right from the beginning, too. Of course, that track starts like this ... "Wake up in the mornin' feelin' like P. Diddy."

What Kesha sang at the Hollywood Palladium, though, was different ... she said, "Wake up in the morning' feelin' just like me." In other words, she completely dropped Diddy here.

Interestingly enough, Kesha did the same on her Friday night show in Oakland. The Oakland performance of 'TiK ToK' looks incredibly similar to the L.A. gig -- but we did some digging and as it turns out ... Kesha's stage design/lighting is exactly the same for this song at her shows lately. So, basically -- there's no doubt she changed the lyric twice this weekend.

What makes this stand out even more is the fact that just a few days ago -- before Cassie filed her lawsuit -- Kesha was performing in Denver, which you can see in the YouTube video above ... and there, the Diddy lyric remained.

Long story short ... it seems Kesha is taking a stance on the issue, which is notable considering she has long labeled herself a survivor of alleged sexual assault -- having infamously accused Dr. Luke ... which he vehemently denied and sued her over.

In the end, they settled their legal battle and Kesha said, "Only God knows what happened that night. As I have always said, I cannot recount everything that happened."

That saga was arduous in and of itself ... but seemingly pertinent to the decision Kesha's making here about Diddy. Like we said, he too has outright denied Cassie's allegations -- accusing her of a money shakedown ... this before coming to terms out of court a day later.

Donald Trump was once infamously alleged to have watched prostitutes pee on a bed in a "golden showers" show -- and even all these years later ... he continues to insist it ain't true.

The ex-Prez was at a campaign event in Fort Dodge, Iowa Saturday night -- and while he was hyping up his crowd ... he waded back into this very old news, just to reiterate his denial and to once again explain why it couldn't possibly be true.

Take a listen ... DT retells the story as it was alleged in a secret dossier -- which claimed he and some "hookers" were at a hotel in Russia back in 2013, and that DT watched these ladies urinate on a mattress that Barack and Michelle Obama had apparently once slept in.

Trump denied this way back in 2017 when the story first started to surface -- and he's doing the same here in 2023 ... this time roping Melania into it, and saying she totally believes him.

As he noted way back when ... he's a total germaphobe, so there's no way this can be true -- something he says the former First Lady also apparently agreed with when he tried to reassure her it was bunk.

Diddy y su drama con Cassie parecen estar dándole grandes preocupaciones al rapero.

El magnate del hip hop y Bad Boy honcho fue fotografiado el sábado fuera de su mansión de Star Island en Miami, donde estaba vestido casualmente y bebiendo mientras se dejó caer al lado de lo que parece ser su jefa de personal desde hace mucho tiempo.

Ella estaba en ropa cómoda también y los dos charlaron un rato en lo que parecía una conversación bastante seria. Diddy incluso enterró la cara entre las manos en un momento dado.

Finalmente, se levantó y volvió a entrar.

Tiene sentido, teniendo en cuenta todo lo que ha estado sucediendo en las últimas 72. Diddy está siendo acusado de cosas horribles por su ex en la corte, todo lo ha negado con vehemencia. Tan rápido como ella presentó la demanda, ambos llegaron a un acuerdo.

Mientras que el abogado de Diddy fue inflexible al decir que su cliente NO estaba admitiendo haber hecho mal, la gente en línea ha estado charlando sobre esto sin parar, a pesar de que en general, el sentimiento público parece estar en su mayoría en contra del rapero.

El tiempo dirá cómo las reclamaciones de Cassie terminan afectando a su vida, el hecho es que tiene un montón de empresas de negocios en las que está involucrado, por no hablar de los eventos de caridad que encabeza con bastante frecuencia.

Por supuesto, Diddy también se dedica a la música, y acaba de publicar un álbum a principios de este año. También tiende a salir mucho por la ciudad para fiestas y reuniones, pero algo nos dice que podría mantener las cosas discretas por un tiempo.

Diddy just officially put this whole Cassie saga to bed, but it seems it's all still at the forefront of his mind -- that is, if these pictures of him looking stressed are any indication.

The hip hop mogul and Bad Boy honcho was photographed Saturday outside of his Star Island mansion in Miami ... where he was dressed casually and sipping on a beverage of some sort as he plopped down next to what appears to be his longtime chief of staff.

She was in comfy clothes too, and the two of them chatted for a bit in what looked like a pretty serious conversation. Diddy even buried his face in his hands at one point.

Eventually, he got up and went back inside ... but yeah, he certainly appears solemn.

Makes sense, considering everything that's been going on over the past 72 hours or so -- namely, him being accused of horrendous things by his ex in court ... all of which he's vehemently denied. Just as quickly as she filed, they both reached a settlement.

While Diddy's attorney was adamant in saying that his client settling did NOT mean he was admitting wrongdoing -- people online have been chatting about this nonstop regardless ... and, by and large, public sentiment seems to be mostly against Puff in the aftermath.

Time will tell how Cassie's claims end up affecting his life -- fact is, he's got a lot of business ventures he's involved in ... not to mention charitable endeavors he heads up quite often.

Of course, Diddy still dabbles in music as well ... and is fresh off an album release earlier this year. He also tends to hit the town a lot for parties and get-togethers, but something tells us he might be keeping things on the DL for a while.

Slim Thug says women who claim to have been abused need to speak up when it's actually happening -- which is why he thinks Cassie's lawsuit against Diddy came too little, too late.

The rapper aired out his thoughts online with a very honest video, in which he spoke on the Cassie/Diddy situation -- which is now resolved after the two of them reached a settlement in record time.

Still, ST spoke his piece ... and he says he simply doesn't support people coming after their alleged abusers years after the fact -- and not only did he mention Diddy and Cassie in making this point, but he also name-dropped Bill Cosby. As he says, he ain't with all that.

Slim also dished his opinion on why he believes Cassie even filed her suit with bombshell claims -- and, according to him, it may have to do with her living a different lifestyle now.

Bottom line ... Slim Thug's saying he thinks this is all about money, and has a hunch Cassie was simply out for cash in this whole situation.

In any case ... Slim's bigger point here is, the post-mortem undressing of old (alleged) incidents not only needs a statute of limitations legally -- but, perhaps, socially too.

ICYMI ... Cassie/Diddy came to terms out of court, and both said they resolved it amicably. Diddy's attorney also said the settlement did not indicate an admission of wrongdoing.

Ashlyn Harris has a lot to say to internet trolls about what was happening behind the scenes when she and Ali Krieger broke up, and she started dating Sophia Bush -- and she says there was absolutely no cheating.

The former soccer star says she's tried to remain silent about the details, but Saturday -- due to the rumors of infidelity, she decided to share it all. She says, "Let me be clear: I did not step out on my marriage. I was always faithful in my marriage, if not always totally happy. Like in many partnerships, there was work and therapy and processing done."

In her Instagram post, Ashlyn added the split was well planned out -- "We spent the entire summer working to tackle the separation and divorce steps outlined for us by our therapists, lawyers, and our shared agency."

Ashlyn says they were betrayed by someone who leaked their breakup news before they intended to go public at the end of Ali's soccer season.

As we previously reported, Ashlyn started dating Sophia less than a month after filing for divorce from Ali in September. Krieger and Harris married in late 2019 in Miami.

Ali seemed to fuel the rumor about infidelity being the reason for their split when she wrote on Instagram, "Preparing for playoffs while in my Beyoncé Lemonade era" -- and, of course, the "Lemonade" album chronicles Bey and Jay-Z's relationship issues after she discovered he cheated on her.

While video showed Ashlyn and Sophia seemingly getting flirty during a June event in Cannes -- Ashlyn's new revelation makes it seem like she and Ali were done at that point ... just not publicly.

She says she and Ali are now focused on co-parenting their 2 young children.

Donald Trump estuvo involucrado en una polémica (una de miles), luego de ser visto en un espectáculo de "lluvias doradas", donde prostitutas orinaban en una cama. Han pasado años y él sigue insistiendo en que no es cierto.

El expresidente estaba en un evento de campaña en Fort Dodge, Iowa, el sábado por la noche, y mientras estaba entreteniendo a su público, se metió de nuevo en esta noticia muy antigua, solo para reiterar su negación y para explicar una vez más por qué no podía ser verdad.

Donald vuelve a contar la historia tal y como estaba escrita en un expediente secreto que afirmaba que él y unas prostitutas estaban en un hotel en Rusia en 2013, y que vio a estas damas orinar en un colchón en el que Barack y Michelle Obama aparentemente habían dormido una vez.

Trump negó esto en 2017, cuando la historia comenzó a salir a la luz y está haciendo lo mismo ahora en 2023, y esta vez incluyendo a Melania, diciendo que ella le cree totalmente.

Como Trump señaló hace mucho tiempo, le tiene fobia a los gérmenes, por lo que no hay manera de que esto pueda ser verdad.

La jugadora de la WNBA, Kysre Gondrezick, está denunciando a los fiscales involucrados en el caso de agresión de Kevin Porter Jr., diciendo que el fiscal del distrito sigue impulsando una "falsa narrativa" a pesar de que ella ha negado en repetidas ocasiones que su exnovio la atacó.

TMZ Sports habló con Gondrezick esta semana y dice que el manejo que ha tenido la oficina del fiscal de Manhattan del incidente de septiembre ha "agravado aún más su trauma que la experiencia real".

La joven de 26 años nos dice que le dio una declaración a los funcionarios una semana después de que Porter fuera arrestado y les explicó que la denuncia penal original no era ni de cerca lo que había pasado. Ahora quiere que el fiscal reconozca públicamente su versión de los hechos: que se cayó y se golpeó la cabeza después de que Kevin la despertara bruscamente tras una noche de fiesta. Ella es firme en que nunca la golpeó.

Como informamos anteriormente, Kevin Porter Jr. fue acusado de golpear varias veces a Gondrezick y de ponerle las manos en el cuello, lo que habría resultado en una vértebra del cuello fracturado y una laceración por encima de su ojo.

Más tarde se supo que la dolencia del cuello NO había sido obra de Porter, sino que se trataba de una lesión preexistente.

En cuanto a la laceración, Gondrezick afirma que fue consecuencia de la caída que sufrió y una mancha de maquillaje en la pared del hotel respalda su versión.

Kevin Porter Jr. fue detenido por agresión y estrangulamiento, pero uno de los cargos fue retirado por "insuficiencia de pruebas".

Gondrezick dice que se está abriendo para protegerse a ella misma, no a Kevin, y no quiere que las autoridades la sigan silenciando. También pide que los funcionarios responsables de impulsar la actual narrativa rindan cuentas.

El abogado de Gondrezick, Bobby Altchiler, también tomó parte en el asunto. Dice que su cliente ha estado recibiendo amenazas de muerte debido a la mala gestión del caso, llamando poco ético e inmoral que no se corrija la información que está circulando.

En palabras simples, Altchiler reiteró exactamente lo que quiere Gondrezick.

"Sean honestos, por el amor de Dios".

Kevin Porter Jr. deberá comparecer ante el tribunal a finales de este mes.
