Controversial S#!T

Boeing's 737 planes are being given the green light to get back up into the sky -- but a guy who used to do quality assurance for them says ... it might be too soon, not safe enough.

We talked to former Boeing quality manager John Barnett -- who came on "TMZ Live" Wednesday to discuss the fact that his old company has said their 737 Max 9 aircrafts are ready to hit the runway again ... this just a few weeks after the Alaska Airlines incident.

The speed at which this has all unfolded has alarmed many, and John here is right there with them in the concerned department ... and his reasoning lies in his personal experience.

Watch what he has to say for yourself -- John explains how things ran when he was in the field and how they've allegedly changed. Based on what he's claiming here, it's troubling, 'cause he suggests cutting corners is something the industry at large has leaned into.

John claims that inspection operators and experts have been getting slashed from assembly lines in recent years -- an awful trend that he suspects has only continued since he left.

With this in mind, he questions whether the 737s are, in fact, as good to go as Boeing insists ... because in his mind, he thinks more due diligence is warranted -- just in case, of course.

Los aviones 737 de Boeing tienen luz verde para volver al cielo, pero un tipo que solía estar a cargo de garantizar la calidad de los aviones dice que podría ser demasiado pronto y no lo suficientemente seguro.

Hablamos con el ex gerente de calidad de Boeing John Barnett, quien se unió a "TMZ Live" el miércoles para discutir que su antigua compañía haya informado que los aviones 737 Max 9 están listos para golpear la pista de nuevo. Esto, a solo unas semanas de que ocurriera el incidente de Alaska Airlines.

La rapidez con la que todo ha ocurrido ha alarmado a muchos, incluido John, y su razonamiento radica en su propia experiencia personal.

Mira lo que nos dijo, primero explica cómo funcionaban las cosas cuando estaba en la empresa y cómo supuestamente han cambiado. Si nos basamos en lo que dice, es preocupante, porque sugiere que tomar atajos es algo que la industria ha estado haciendo.

John afirma que los operadores y expertos en inspeccionar los aviones han sido recortados de las líneas de montaje en los últimos años, una tendencia horrible que sospecha solo ha continuado desde que se fue.

Con esto en mente, se pregunta si los 737s son realmente tan buenos como para que Boeing insista en ello, porque desde su perspectiva, está justificada una mayor diligencia en este caso, por si acaso, por supuesto.

Chrisean Rock no es la única que quiere recordar a Blueface tatuándose su cara... hay otra chica haciendo lo mismo, solo que más bajo.

El miércoles, Bonnie estrenó un tatuaje en su culo. De hecho, publicó fotos y videos acostada con los pantalones caídos y la cara de Blueface inmortalizada en su mejilla izquierda.

Bonnie miembro del elenco original de Blue "Blue Girls Club" -su reality show de corta duración- pero su tinta descarada parece haber sorprendido incluso a su grupo de amigos cercanos, porque están diciendo que es una tonta. Sin embargo, ella ha estado todo el día profesando su 💙 hacia Blue.

Debemos señalar que Bonnie tiene problemas con las otras novias de Blue, incluyendo a Chrisean y Jaidyn Alexis y básicamente todas las otras mujeres en la vida del rapero.

Con este movimiento, Bonnie parece estar tratando de plantar su bandera en Blu, apartándolo para ella cuando salga de la cárcel.

Vale la pena señalar que Bonnie acaba de lanzar una nueva pista titulada "That's My Daddy", y es una muestra de toda su competencia con Blueface, y solo una confirmación más de que él la tiene muy lejos, al igual que las demás

TMZ Hip Hop acaba de confirmar con la tienda de tatuajes de Chrisean que su reciente tatuaje es permanente, y al igual que Bonnie, su propia familia piensa que necesita hacerse a un lado.

Chrisean Rock isn't the only one of Blueface's baddies dedicating their bodies to his mug shot while he's locked up -- there's another gal doing the same ... only lower.

On Wednesday, his admitted side chick, Bonnie, debuted a HUMONGOUS tattoo of her own -- which was being done on her ass. Indeed, she posted pics and video of herself lying down with her pants dropped and her booty with BF's mug stenciled onto her left cheek.

Bonnie's an OG cast member of Blue's "Blue Girls Club" -- his short-lived reality show -- but her cheeky ink seems to have even surprised her close friend group ... 'cause they're saying she's a fool. Nevertheless, she's been doubling down all day, professing her 💙 for Blue.

We should note ... Bonnie has beef with Blue's other girlfriends/baby mamas -- including Chrisean and Jaidyn Alexis -- and basically all the other women in BF's life. That seems to be why she's doing this ... almost as a way to "stick it to them."

With this move, Bonnie appears to be trying to plant her flag on Blue -- with the message being ... he's all mine, once he's released from jail in a few months, of course.

Probably worth noting ... Bonnie just released a new track titled "That's My Daddy" ... and it's a diss to all her competition with Blueface -- and just further confirmation that he has her on lock, just like all the other ladies in his orbit, it seems.

TMZ Hip Hop just confirmed with Chrisean's tattoo shop that her newly planted "Blueface" is indeed permanent ... but like Bonnie, her own family thinks she needs to step aside.

Candace Owens is blaming Ice Spice for inducing stupidity in the United States ... a reaction made after her ears got crop-dusted by the superstar rapper's new "Fart" song!!!

On the latest episode of her podcast, Candace moonlighted as a music journalist tackling Ice's new single and rated the track with a proverbial p-u ... nothing but stink!!!

Ice keeps it simple on the new track produced by her longtime producer RIOTUSA, rapping on the chorus ... "Think you the sh**, bitch? You not even the fart/I be goin' hard/I'm breakin' they hearts...Grrah!!!" -- a little too simple for Candace's intellect.

Candace didn't miss the window to throw more shade at Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion for making "WAP" back in 2020 ... still an all-time low in her book.

The political pundit also hammered HotNewHipHop's recap of Ice's "Think U The Sh**" -- for its glossy review, where they describe the song as a "bold declaration" to "establish dominance" and something about her "personal prowess."

Plenty of heavy-handed huff ... but one could say the same for CO's declaration Ice's lyrics are ripping apart society's fabric.

It's a fun song for TikTok ... at least for the time being.

El video de un hombre esposado en ropa interior luego de que la policía descubriera tres cuerpos en su patio trasero acaba de hacerse público, y es solo el último desarrollo de este salvaje caso en Missouri.

Probablemente han oído hablar de esta historia, todo tiene que ver con un hombre llamado Jordan Willis de Kansas City, que fue anfitrión de una fiesta de los Chiefs con algunos amigos en su casa a principios de enero, y que terminó con 3 de ellos muertos en su propiedad días más tarde.

La historia es absolutamente descabellada y todavía encierra muchos misterios. Esto es lo que la policía sabe con certeza: en algún momento después de la fiesta del 7 de enero, las familias de 3 de los asistentes a la reunión (David Harrington, Ricky Johnson y Clayton McGeeney) denunciaron su desaparición, ya que nadie había visto ni oído hablar de ellos después de esa noche.

La gente trató de contactar al propio Willis, pero este también estuvo fuera del radar durante un par de días hasta que los oficiales llegaron a su casa el 9 de enero. Al parecer abrió la puerta con una copa de vino en la mano y vistiendo nada más que calzoncillos.

Y eso es exactamente lo que se ve en este nuevo video, que acaba de aparecer por cortesía del reportero Alex Caprariello, de NewsNation, fruto de su reporteo.

En el clip se puede ver a un vecino grabando a la policía camino a la casa de Willis y luego el momento en que lo detienen.

Y sí, está en ropa interior, tal como habían indicado los informes desde el principio.

Vale la pena señala que aunque Willis podría haber terminado esposado en el momento, luego de que los agentes descubrieran los cuerpos congeladosde Harrington, Johnson y McGeeney, en el patio trasero de Willis, NO fue arrestado o acusado de un delito, y no lo ha sido hasta el momento.

La policía dice que no hay sospecha de crimen violento hasta el momento e incluso están diciendo a su manera que no lo están considerando como un homicidio, a pesar de algunos detalles preocupantes que tienen al público tomándose la cabeza.

Willis, por su parte, ha negado cualquier conocimiento acerca de cómo sus amigos aparecieron muertos en su patio trasero y dice que ni siquiera era consciente de que alguien los estaba buscando. Ha negado tener cualquier relación con su muerte, a pesar de la indignación colectiva de las familias.

Video of a man being handcuffed in his underwear as police discovered three dead bodies in his backyard is finally surfacing -- the latest development in this wild case out of Missouri.

You've probably heard of this by now -- it all has to do with this guy named Jordan Willis in Kansas City, who was hosting a Chiefs watch party at his house back in early January with some friends ... only for 3 of them to turn up as stiff corpses on his property days later.

The story is absolutely insane ... and it's still shrouded in mystery. Here's what cops know for sure though -- at some point after the watch party on Jan. 7, families for 3 of the attendees at Willis' get-together (David Harrington, Ricky Johnson, and Clayton McGeeney) reported them missing ... as no one had seen or heard from these men after that evening.

People had attempted to contact Willis himself, of course, but he too was off the radar for a couple days -- that is, until officers arrived at his home on Jan. 9 ... where he reportedly answered the door with a wineglass in hand ... and wearing nothing but tighty-whities.

That's exactly what you're seeing in this new video here, which just popped up courtesy of NewsNation reporter Alex Caprariello, who says he obtained it through his reporting.

In the brief clip ... you can see a neighbor recording the police run-in Willis experienced that night -- capturing all the officers who responded to the scene ... and them detaining Willis.

And yes, he indeed in his underwear ... just as reports have indicated from the get-go.

It's worth noting, while Willis might've landed in handcuffs here in the moment -- after which officers discovered the bodies of Harrington, Johnson and McGeeney, frozen to death in Willis' backyard -- he did NOT get arrested or charged with a crime ... and hasn't as of yet.

Police there are saying no foul play is suspected thus far in the investigation -- and they're even going out of their way to say this is not being looked into as a homicide ... despite some troubling details that have the public doing double takes and scratching their heads.

Willis, for his part, has denied any knowledge about how his friends turned up dead in his backyard ... and says he wasn't even aware anyone was looking for them. He's denied having anything to do with their demise ... this despite the families' collective outrage.

Chrisean Rock mostró un poco de tinta fresca la semana pasada, revelando la cara de su novio, Blueface, y mientras algunos pensaban que no era real... nos dicen todo lo contrario.

El propietario de la tienda de tatuajes Lakimii -donde Chrisean se hizo este trabajo- nos dice que la estrella de la realidad se acercó para este nuevo tatuaje el sábado pasado y mientras que normalmente tienen una política contra la aguja en la cara de alguien, hicieron una excepción para Chrisean.

Nos dicen que este trabajo tomó alrededor de 4 horas en total para completar, lo cual es evidente en lo detallado y elaborado que es. No se sabe si le cobraron o no, pero el propietario, Timo, nos dice que ya le han hecho tatuajes en el pasado, así que están familiarizados con ella como cliente.

De todos modos, puedes echarle un vistazo al tatuaje con más detalle aquí. Mientras que ha habido algunos creen que es falso, Timo insiste en que es real.

Ciertamente se pueden ver sus poros abiertos y la tinta llenándolos. Además, su cabeza está ligeramente afeitada alrededor de la zona en cuestión, lo que es un signo revelador de que está a punto de hacerse un tatuaje.

Hay un puñado de personas que todavía son escépticos acerca del tatuaje, pero por lo que parece, Chrisean parece haber sido atacada de nuevo, esto después de volver a dedicarse a Blueface, que está actualmente entre las rejas por una violación de libertad condicional en Los Ángeles.

Ella ciertamente está esperando a que sea puesto en libertad y sabemos que Lakimii también está emocionado. Nos dicen que el negocio está en auge para ellos desde el trabajo de tinta que hicieron para ella.

Y escucha esto, nos han dicho que el propio Blue también tiene planes de venir a entintarse, aunque no se sabe cuándo exactamente podría suceder.

Chrisean Rock showed off some fresh ink last week that bared the mug of her on-and-off boyfriend, Blueface, and while some thought it wasn't real ... we're being told otherwise.

The owner of the Lakimii Tattoo Shop in WeHo -- where Chrisean got this job done -- tells us the reality star came by for this new face tat last Saturday ... and while they normally have a policy against needling up someone's face, they made an exception for Chrisean.

We're told this work took about 4 hours in total to complete ... which is evident in how detailed and elaborate it is. No word on whether they charged her or not -- but the owner, Timo, tells us they've done tats for her in the past ... so they're familiar with her as a client.

Anyway ... you can take a look at the tattoo in more detail here. While there've been some who've believed this may have been a henna thing ... Timo insists it's the real McCoy.

It certainly looks like it could be based on what we're seeing -- you can see her pores opened up, and the ink filling them. Plus, her head is slightly shaved around the area in question -- which is a telltale sign that a tattoo is about to take place.

There's a handful of folks who are still skeptical about whether this is fake -- but from the looks of it, Chrisean appears to have gotten blasted again ... this after re-devoting herself to Blueface, who's currently behind bars on a probation violation in L.A.

She certainly seems happy waiting for him to be released ... and we know Lakimii is also stoked. They tell us business has booming for them ever since the ink job they did for her.

And get this ... we're told Blue himself apparently has plans to come and get some fresh ink as well. No word on when exactly that might happen -- he could be locked up for a while.

GloRilla has a few hot takes that will definitely ruffle some feathers ... especially if you're a guy who enjoys puffing on hookah, or a woman who's raising a kid. She said it, not us!

Big Glo laid out her gripes on Tuesday, claiming every woman she knows who's a "baby mama" is a few sandwiches short of a picnic ... to put it kindly.

She actually called 'em dumb bitches.

The "FNF" creator even went so low as to call those particular chicks the "r-word." Remember, Lizzo recently caught flak for dropping that word in a song, and ended up apologizing and changing the lyric.

Glo identifies as an equal opportunist, so she also has smoke for the males, especially the ones she calls "fake tricks" -- guys who pretend like they have the money to spoil her, but actually have empty pockets.

But, her biggest pet peeve is guys who smoke hookah! Glo even claimed she turned down a guy who caught her eye, after seeing the hookah hose hit his lips.

She might be on her own defending her "baby mama" comments, but 21 Savage is also fully against guys who smoke hookah.

He scolded Kai Cenat last night for partaking in such a "girly" activity.

Megan Thee Stallion's beef with Nicki Minaj has taken an ugly turn -- cops are getting involved to protect her late mother's gravesite, this after doxxing by her arch-rival's fandom.

The Texas cemetery where Megan's mom, Holly Thomas, was laid to rest after passing away from brain cancer in 2019 -- tells TMZ ... they've notified local authorities and increased security personnel at their facility in light of the escalating feud.

What's more ... we're told PSC will continue to monitor the situation as they take all matters regarding safety and security seriously -- and lately, things have been getting too real.

They do add ... as of yet, thankfully nothing has happened to the gravesite, but they emphasize they're on high alert regardless.

The extra precautions come after some of Nicki's "Barbz" -- AKA, her army of fiercely loyal supporters -- first leaked the location of Holly's burial site on social media ... encouraging others to go and desecrate her grave as a way to get back at MTS for her OG diss.

It all kicked off last week when Nicki distastefully cracked a joke about MTS' mother on the streaming platform Stationhead. Her exact line at the time was ... "You better go conjure up your mother and apologize. That's disgusting." It seems some of her fans took that to heart.

No doubt, ya gotta figure that was particularly heartbreaking for Megan to hear ... as she's been super candid and emotional over the years about her mother's influence in her life.

Megan has also been very open about what the loss of her mom has meant to her -- and by all accounts, it's been very difficult ... something that's been well-documented and discussed.

Now, Nicki did later explain that she only took the shot at Meg's mom cause MTS was coming after her own family. In particular, MTS seemed to reference Nicki's husband, Kenneth Petty, in her new track "Hiss" -- making a "Megan's Law" reference that many interpreted as shade toward Petty's legal trouble.

So, tit for tat really ... many felt Nicki had just gone too far, and doubly so for any one of her supporters who was seriously considering heading over to Holly's grave.

Un caballo de carreras dio positivo por metanfetamina tras ganar una carrera en Ohio, y el castigo del entrenador ha enfadado a PETA, que ahora exige que se le prohíba la entrada.

El caballo, Gardy's Legacy, fue sometido a un análisis de sangre tras ganar una carrera en el MGM Northfield Park el 3 de septiembre y dio positivo por metanfetamina, un delito de Clase 1 Categoría A según la Asociación de Trote de EE.UU.

Tras el resultado positivo, la Comisión de Carreras del Estado de Ohio suspendió entrenador Samuel Schillaci por un año y le ordenó pagar una multa de $1k.

El Standardbred también fue descalificado y las ganancias de $4.500 fueron devueltos.

Este castigo no fue suficiente para PETA, la mayor organización de defensa de los derechos de los animales del mundo, que ahora pide que Schillaci sea expulsado permanentemente del deporte.

"Esta pequeña multa administrativa y la suspensión no son proporcionales a una infracción tan grave", declaró el lunes Kathy Guillermo, Vicepresidenta de PETA.

"La metanfetamina pone en peligro la vida de un caballo y los entrenadores que tratan a un caballo de forma tan insensible también harán lo mismo con otros. La comisión debería tener en cuenta no solo la seguridad de Gardy's Legacy, sino también la de todos los demás caballos del establo de Schillaci".

"Aquellos que demuestran tal crueldad, muestran un claro desprecio por las regulaciones y no se les debería conceder el privilegio de competir en su estado nunca más".

Guillermo añadió: "Prohibiendo permanentemente a Schillaci competir en Ohio, crearía un ambiente más seguro para todos los participantes".

Desafortunadamente para PETA, la OSRC le dijo a FOX 8 en Cleveland que "los jueces dieron la pena máxima permitida por la ley".

A racehorse tested positive for meth after a winning run in Ohio ... and the trainer's slap-on-the-wrist punishment has pissed off PETA, who is now demanding he be banned.

The horse, Gardys Legacy A, was given a blood test after winning a race at the MGM Northfield Park on September 3 ... and it came back positive for D-methamphetamine, a Class 1 Category A offense according to the U.S. Trotting Association.

Following the positive result, the Ohio State Racing Commission suspended trainer Samuel Schillaci for one year ... and ordered him to pay a $1k fine.

The Standardbred was also disqualified ... and the $4,500 winnings were returned.

That punishment clearly wasn't enough for PETA, the largest animal rights organization in the world, who are now calling on Schillaci to be permanently banned from the sport.

"This small administrative fine and suspension aren’t commensurate with such a serious violation," PETA's Senior Vice President Kathy Guillermo said on Monday.

"Administering meth endangers a horse’s life, and trainers who treat a horse so callously will do the same to others, too. The commission should consider not only the safety of Gardys Legacy A but also that of all the other horses in Schillaci’s barn."

"Those who demonstrate such cruelty even one time show a clear disregard for the regulations and shouldn’t be granted the privilege of competing in your state ever again."

Guillermo added, "By permanently barring Schillaci from competing in Ohio, you would create a safer environment for all participants."

Unfortunately for PETA, the OSRC told FOX 8 in Cleveland that "the judges gave the maximum penalty allowed by law."

LaMelo Ball is in some hot water with some of his biggest fans ... who are pissed at the NBA star for cracking up on the Hornets' bench during a blowout loss Monday.

Ball wasn't playing in Charlotte's home tilt against the New York Knicks while dealing with a sore ankle ... so he took a seat with some of his squadmates -- and despite the completely one-sided score, he was seen smiling throughout the contest.

At one point, when Charlotte was down 25 points early in the fourth quarter ... Ball was actually seen busting at the seams with Bryce McGowens and James Bouknight.

The images pissed off a whole lot of Hornets supporters, who found it downright disrespectful that the team's biggest star didn't appear locked in on the game.

What made it especially worse was "Let's Go Knicks" chants had broken out at the Spectrum Center right around the same time.

The Hornets went on to lose 113-92 ... and their record is now a measly 10-35.

There's a new video game where Batman gets a final sayonara from his worst foes -- and fans of the late Kevin Conroy are absolutely fuming over it ... calling it a terrible send-off.

The game's called 'Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League' -- due out in a few days -- and some of the footage from a particular scene involving the Dark Knight (voiced by Conroy) is already making the rounds online ... which depicts this version of Batman's brutal death.

Indeed, in this universe ... Harley Quinn fires a bullet into Batman at close range, officially killing him off -- and people who grew up watching Conroy's Batman are kinda losing it.

There's a number of reasons why folks are mad -- but the biggest one, it seems, is that some feel this is a disrespectful way to leave Conroy's legacy as the Caped Crusader. It is, in fact, the last time he played Batman before tragically passing in 2022 from cancer.

While this game's developer/distributor (Rocksteady/WB) likely didn't foresee Conroy dying so suddenly -- diehards of his character and the superhero at large are still dragging these companies through the coals for the decision to off Batman like this ... very wham bam.

However, others are actually pushing back against the outrage ... for two good reasons. One ... it's a freaking video game/fictional character -- and all this is pretty damn silly, TBH.

More importantly, though, many are rightly pointing out that Conroy himself signed up for this story when taking the job -- and considering how closely he cherished the role/character of Batman for as long as he did it ... some think the angry mob should respect his decision.

Elon Musk y Neuralink han hecho historia... el multimillonario dice por primera vez hay un ser humano equipado con el chip cerebral de la startup neurotecnológica.

Elon hizo el gran anuncio el lunes en su plataforma de redes sociales X, antes Twitter, afirmando que los primeros resultados se ven bien.

Musk dice que el paciente, parte del primer grupo de prueba humano de Neuralink, recibió el implante el domingo y se está recuperando bien.

Añade: "Los resultados iniciales muestran una prometedora detección de picos neuronales".

El chip cerebral, explica Elon, se llama Telepatía y dice que "permite controlar tu teléfono u ordenador, y a través de ellos, casi cualquier dispositivo, solo con el pensamiento".

Dicho de otra manera, Elon dice: "Imagínese si Stephen Hawking podría haberse comunicado más rápido que un mecanógrafo o un subastador. Ese es el objetivo".

El primer ensayo en humanos de Neuralink involucra a personas que han perdido el uso de sus extremidades.

La empresa de Elon está probando la seguridad del implante y del robot quirúrgico que inserta el chip en el cerebro. Neuralink dice que también quiere ver cómo funciona la futurista tecnología en el mundo real.

La FDA despejó el camino para este ensayo en mayo, y es solo un paso en un largo proceso hacia la aprobación final de la FDA.
