Drugs & Alcohol

Nathaniel Lowe was so giddy during the Rangers' World Series parade Friday, he straight-up downed a fan's beer in seconds -- and then ripped off his shirt in celebration of the achievement!!

The 2022 Silver Slugger award winner was being driven around in the back of a pickup truck to soak in love from Texas fans when the hilarious moment happened.

You can see in video from the scene in Arlington, a Rangers supporter tossed Lowe a Modelo -- before the first baseman cracked it open and drank it 'til the last drop.

But, he wasn't done there ... he then ripped off his jersey and his undershirt -- much to the crowd's delight.

Thousands of people showed up to celebrate Lowe and his Rangers after they won the title over the Diamondbacks on Wednesday ... and one supporter was so thrilled by his team's performance, he actually climbed to the top of a light pole to pump his fists.

Thankfully, he reportedly made it down unharmed.

Following the jaunt around the city ... the Rangers then took the stage to address their fans -- and Series MVP Corey Seager delivered an epic drop-the-mic moment.

Kendall Jenner está cumpliendo 28 años y su orgullosa madre Kris Jenner está TAN embargada por la emoción... Por favor avísennos pueden darse cuenta 😅.

Kris comenzó los homenajes de cumpleaños efusivos a la modelo en un post sentimental en Instagram, en el que enumera un sinfín de elogios a su hija "hermosa, amable, generosa, inteligente, talentosa, creativa, increíble, reflexiva".

Por supuesto, acompañó la publicación de una colección de adorables fotos de su infancia.

Kris dice que se siente bendecida por ser su madre, y estamos seguros de que algo tiene que ver la incursión de Kendall con 818 Tequila, siguiendo los pasos de sus hermanas en el mundo de los negocios.

No es que lo necesite... con un patrimonio neto de $45 M, ella es una de las celebridades regulares en la lista anual de Forbes de las modelos mejor pagadas después de trabajar con prácticamente todas las marcas de moda.

Mientras tanto, las hermanas de Kendall han estado lentas en sus homenajes de cumpleaños a Kendall, pero todas están ocupadas dirigiendo imperios, así que vamos a dejarlas fuera...

La mejor amiga de la supermodelo, Hailey Bieber, sí pasó toda la noche preparando la masa para hacer bollos helados de calabaza para ella, los que parecían estar medio comidos cuando se los presentaron. Qué "enfermo"... las palabras de Kendall, no las nuestras.

Kendall Jenner is 28 ... and proud mama Kris Jenner is SO overcome with emotion ... let us know if you can tell. 😅

The momager kicked off the gushing birthday tributes to the model in a sentimental IG post ... heaping endless praise on her "beautiful, kind, generous, giving, smart, talented, creative, amazing, thoughtful" daughter.

Of course, a collection of Kendall's adorable childhood snaps accompanied the extravagant compliments -- par for the course for the KarJenners, really.

Kris says she's blessed to be her mother -- and we're sure Kendall following in her sisters' mega-business brand footsteps with her 818 Tequila venture has something to do with it.

Not that she needed it ... with a $45M net worth, she's a regular topper on Forbes' annual list of highest-paid models after working with virtually every fashion brand out there.

Meanwhile, Kendall's sisters have been slow on the ground with their birthday tributes to KJ -- but they're all busy running empires, so we'll let them off the hook.

But the supermodel's BFF Hailey Bieber spent all night rolling out the dough to make pumpkin-flavored iced buns for her ... which already appeared to be half eaten when presented to her. What a "sicko" -- Kendall's words, not ours.

Matthew Perry hizo un punto mientras estaba vivo sobre la importancia de ayudar a las personas que sufren de problemas de adicción con las drogas o el alcohol, y ahora va a llevar a cabo su misión desde la otra vida.

Los más cercanos al actor de "Friends" están lanzando una fundación en su nombre, que se llamará "The Matthew Perry Foundation". TMZ publicó la historia, Perry había estado planeando la creación de esta organización durante meses antes de que repentinamente falleciera, y ahora su sueño se está manifestando en la realidad.

El propósito de la fundación es ayudar a las personas a superar el abuso de sustancias, y llevará el espíritu y el humilde enfoque de Perry respecto a la adicción y su recuperación.

Una vez dijo: "Cuando muera, no quiero que "Friends" sea lo primero que se mencione, quiero que ayudar a los demás sea lo primero que se mencione. Y voy a vivir el resto de mi vida demostrándolo. La adicción es demasiado poderosa para que alguien la venza solo. Pero juntos, día a día, podemos vencerla".

Su equipo dice: "Nos embarcamos en un viaje para honrar su legado mediante el establecimiento de la Fundación Matthew Perry, guiado por sus propias palabras y experiencias, e impulsado en su pasión de marcar una diferencia en tantas vidas como sea posible".

El sitio web, que es bastante escueto en este momento, describe de esta forma su misión y por ahora solo le da a la gente la opción de donar. Por cierto, este esfuerzo es legítimo, viene directamente de su equipo, por lo que no hay motivo para preocuparse por su autenticidad.

Como informamos por primera vez, Perry fue encontrado muerto en su jacuzzi el sábado pasado cuando su asistente regresó a su casa de Los Ángeles después de hacer mandados. El asistente llamó de inmediato al 911, a la madre de Perry y a uno de sus hermanos.

Los investigadores creen que Perry se ahogó, pero la causa oficial de muerte está pendiente. Los policías no recuperaron ninguna sustancia ilegal de la escena, pero se incautaron medicamentos recetados, incluyendo antidepresivos y ansiolíticos. Perry solo tenía 54 años.

Matthew Perry made it a point to help people suffering from drug and alcohol addiction while he was alive ... and now he's going to carry on that mission in the afterlife.

Those closest to the "Friends" actor are launching a foundation in his name, aptly titled "The Matthew Perry Foundation." TMZ broke the story ... Perry had actually planned to create this org months before he suddenly passed, and now -- it's being manifested into reality.

The whole purpose of the just-announced foundation is to help addicts overcome substance abuse -- and it'll carry on the spirit of Perry's humbling approach to addiction and recovery.

He once said, "When I die, I don't want 'Friends' to be the first thing that's mentioned — I want helping others to be the first thing that's mentioned. And I'm going to live the rest of my life proving that. Addiction is far too powerful for anyone to defeat alone. But together, one day at a time, we can beat it down."

His team continues ... "We embark on a journey to honor his legacy by establishing the Matthew Perry Foundation, guided by his own words and experiences, and driven by his passion for making a difference in as many lives as possible."

The website cites that as the mission statement ... and for now, it only gives people the option to donate. BTW, this effort is legit, as it's coming directly from this team, so folks need not worry about its authenticity.

As we first reported ... Perry was found dead in his jacuzzi last Saturday when his assistant returned to his L.A. area home after running errands. The assistant promptly called 911, as well as Perry's mother and one of his siblings.

Investigators believe Perry drowned, but an official cause of death is pending. Cops did not recover any illegal substances from the scene, but they did seize prescription medications, including anti-depressants and anti-anxiety drugs. Perry was only 54 years old.

6:37 PM PT -- Orange County D.A. Todd Spitzer is ripping the judge.

In a statement to TMZ, Spitzer says ... "Driving under the influence must have consequences. When a judge gives someone who not only drove with a blood alcohol level of .24 - three times the legal limit - but then ran away from the scene of an DUI collision a slap on the wrist, you are sending a message that DUIs are not serious crimes that demand accountability."

Spitzer adds ... "Judge London clearly felt otherwise and not only gave her a court offer, but dismissed the hit and run charge in the interest of justice. This is not justice. We as a society need to wake up and address the very real - and often deadly - consequences of driving under the influence."

Shannon Beador will avoid jail time in her DUI case ... because a judge just sentenced her to 3 years of probation.

The 'RHOC' star learned her fate Thursday, and was sentenced to 36 months informal probation, fines and fees, plus 40 hours community service and a 9-month alcohol program.

Shannon did not show face in the Orange County courtroom, instead having her attorney appear on her behalf to enter her plea of no contest to one count DUI and one count driving with a blood alcohol content of .08% or more.

The judge dismissed one count of hit-and-run with property damage.

In new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Orange County D.A. Todd Spitzer tried to convince the judge to give Shannon a harsher sentence -- he wanted her to also serve 30 days in jail, but the judge ruled otherwise.

TMZ broke the story ... Shannon was arrested in September after slamming her car into a Newport Beach home, with surveillance footage showing her car zipping through a residential area before her crash.

In the docs, the D.A. says she had a .24% BAC after the crash ... and she suffered a fractured left wrist, plus cuts and bruising to her left eye. Shannon's since paid for the property damage.

BTW ... Shannon's still set to appear at BravoCon this weekend in Vegas.

Shannon Beador evitará la cárcel en su caso de conducción bajo estado de ebriedad, porque un juez acaba de condenarla a tres años de libertad condicional.

La estrella de 'RHOC' (The Real Housewives of Orange County), conoció su destino el jueves y fue condenada a 36 meses de libertad condicional informal, multas y honorarios, además de 40 horas de servicio comunitario y un programa de alcohol de nueve meses.

Shannon no dio la cara en la sala del tribunal del Condado de Orange, en lugar de eso, su abogado se presentó en su nombre para realizar la declaración de no oposición a un cargo de DUI y un cargo de conducir con un contenido de alcohol en la sangre de 0.08% o más.

El juez desestimó un cargo de atropello y fuga con daños a la propiedad.

En los nuevos documentos legales, obtenidos por TMZ, el Condado de Orange D.A. Todd Spitzer trató de convencer al juez de darle a Shannon una sentencia más dura. Querían que pasara 30 días en la cárcel, pero el juez dictaminó lo contrario.

TMZ publicó la historia, Shannon fue detenida en septiembre después de estrellar su coche contra una casa de Newport Beach, con imágenes de vigilancia que muestra su coche a toda velocidad a través de una zona residencial antes de su accidente.

En los documentos, el D.A. dice que tenía un 24% BAC después del accidente y sufrió una fractura en la muñeca izquierda, además de cortes y contusiones en el ojo izquierdo. Shannon ha pagado por los daños causados a la propiedad.

Ex-NFL quarterback Ryan Leaf believes he wouldn't be where he is today if it weren't for Matthew Perry ... crediting the late "Friends" star with playing a pivotal role in his sobriety.

Leaf -- who's approaching 12 years clean after battling drug and alcohol addiction in the past -- poured his heart out about his friend on his "Straight Line" podcast with PointsBet this week ... just days after 54-year-old Perry was found dead at his L.A.-area home.

The former No. 2-overall pick kicked off his tribute by stating Perry was "instrumental in my recovery" ... before going into detail about how the actor offered his support without hesitation over a decade ago.

"I got out of prison and when I got to Los Angeles, Matt put his arm around me immediately," Leaf said. "And he carried me for like, the first six months probably in Los Angeles, trying to learn how to be a sober person really in a public platform."

"I don't know if I’m here right now, being able to do stuff like this -- or anything -- if it weren’t for him, and him sharing his story and making me understand that you can be a guy in the public eye that everyone knows and still be sober, be humble and be about helping other people."

Leaf explained even as Perry dealt with his own drug, alcohol and mental health issues over the years, he didn't ever leave his side and continued to assist in the athlete's sobriety.

The 47-year-old said his takeaway from the tragedy is Perry was so much more than a TV star -- he was a guy who wanted to help others, and that's how he will remember him.

"There's a lot of people that I owe for the life I now have, get to live ... and he's certainly at the top of that," Leaf said.

Matthew Perry's death was not the effect of a fentanyl or meth overdose, at least that's what initial tests indicate ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ investigators ran a less-in-depth test on Perry which revealed he did not have fentanyl or meth in his system. However, it's important to note, more in-depth tests are still being conducted as part of toxicology to analyze whether any other illegal drugs present in his blood -- and if the levels of any prescription meds were at harmful doses.

Those results will likely take anywhere from 4-6 months to be returned, and once all that data is gathered, the coroner will determine the cause and manner of death.

As we first reported, the prescription drugs found in Matthew's house were all prescribed to the actor for his various ailments, and stored in proper bottles.

If something illicit were to come back in his autopsy results, LAPD's Robbery Homicide Division would continue to investigate.

RHD's involvement initially had people scratching their heads, especially as there's currently NO evidence of foul play ... however, it's common for detectives from that division to take the lead on high-profile cases because of its experience and dedicated manpower.

As TMZ first reported, Matthew was found unresponsive in his hot tub Saturday at his home in the Pacific Palisades after playing pickleball for a couple hours earlier that day at Riviera Country Club.

While it appears he died from drowning, the Coroner will have the official word, once all the testing is complete.

La muerte de Matthew Perry no fue el efecto de una sobredosis de fentanilo o metanfetamina, al menos eso es lo que indican las pruebas iniciales. TMZ ha indagado.

Fuentes policiales le dicen a TMZ que los investigadores realizaron una prueba a fondo en Perry que reveló que no tenía fentanilo o metanfetamina en su sistema. Sin embargo, más pruebas se están llevando a cabo para analizar si había alguna droga ilegal en el sistema del actor y si los niveles de sus recetas eran las dosis adecuadas.

Los resultados probablemente estén listos de 4 a 6 meses, y una vez que todas las pruebas estén listas, el médico forense determinará la causa y forma de muerte.

Como informamos por primera vez, los medicamentos recetados que se encontraron en la casa de Matthew fueron prescritos al actor para sus diversas dolencias y almacenados en botellas especiales.

Recordemos que si algo extraño aparece en los resultados de la autopsia, la División de Homicidios y Robo seguirá investigando.

La participación de esta división especial inicialmente generó extrañeza, sobre todo porque no había pruebas de asalto o violencia en el caso de Matthew, sin embargo, es común que tomen la iniciativa en casos de alto perfil debido a su experiencia y mano de obra dedicada.

Esta es la última noticia tras el trágico fallecimiento de la estrella de "Friends". Como TMZ informó por primera vez, fue encontrado inconsciente en su jacuzzi el sábado en su casa después de jugar pickleball durante unas horas antes en el Riviera Country Club.

French Montana's flying private, but his travel plans are still coming with headaches ... because he says authorities in Colombia searched his jet for narcotics.

The rapper says he was trying to fly out of the South American country Tuesday, but he was grounded at the airport while officers combed through his plane in search of cocaine.

French posted video of his encounter with law enforcement, and you see a handful of police officers going through the plane along with a drug-sniffing dog.

He's keeping a cool head about it, for the most part, even petting the K-9 in front of officers. He's also proclaiming his innocence ... saying la policia got the wrong idea about him.

Yes, he named his label (and mixtape series) Cokeboys, but French declares there's no contraband on his ride.

Despite the hard time from Colombian police, French says he's still got love for the country ... though he adds, "you don't have to do me like this!!!"

El cuerpo de Matthew Perry no estuvo en su bañera de hidromasaje por mucho tiempo antes de que fuera encontrado muerto de un aparente ahogamiento... esto añade una nueva capa a su trágica muerte.

Fuentes policiales le dicen TMZ que el cuerpo de Matthew no estaba anegado cuando los socorristas llegaron a su casa de Pacific Palisades y lo declararon muerto en la escena

Matthew estaba solo cuando murió - estaba en casa después de jugar pickleball temprano en el día sábado en Riviera Country Club - y es justo preguntarse cuál habría sido el resultado si alguien más estaba cerca, o si su asistente había llegado a él antes.

Recordemos que Matthew llegó a casa desde el club de campo y envió a su asistente a un recado, cuando el asistente regresó a casa Matthew no respondía en el jacuzzi y el asistente llamó al 911.

Como informamos por primera vez, al revisar la casa del actor no apareció ninguna droga ilegal, pero había numerosos medicamentos encontrados en la casa, incluyendo antidepresivos y ansiolíticos.

Nuestras fuentes dicen que la policía también encontró un medicamento para la EPOC en la casa. EPOC es la abreviatura de Enfermedad Pulmonar Obstructiva Crónica. Esta droga se utiliza a menudo para las personas que tienen enfisema o bronquitis crónica.

Matthew fue un fumador durante su vida y ahora nos informan que la ley encontró parches Nicorette y goma de mascar Nicorette en el hogar, por lo que parece que Matthew iba en serio acerca de dejar los cigarrillos y recuperar su salud.

Matthew Perry's body wasn't in his hot tub for very long before he was found dead from an apparent drowning ... which adds a whole new layer to his tragic death.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … Matthew's body was not waterlogged when first responders arrived at his Pacific Palisades home and declared him dead at the scene.

Matthew was alone when he died -- he was home after playing pickleball earlier in the day Saturday at Riviera Country Club -- and it's fair to wonder what the outcome would have been if someone else was around, or if his assistant had gotten to his house sooner.

Remember ... Matthew got home from the country club and sent his assistant on an errand, and when the assistant returned home Matthew was unresponsive in the jacuzzi and the assistant called 911.

As we first reported, a search of MP's home did not turn up any illegal drugs ... but there were Rx drugs found in the house, including anti-depressants and anti-anxiety drugs.

Our sources say law enforcement also found a COPD drug in the house. COPD is short for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease ... and that drug is often used for people who have emphysema or chronic bronchitis.

Matthew was a smoker during his life, and now we're told law enforcement found Nicorette patches and Nicorette gum in the home ... so it seems Matthew was serious about quitting cigarettes and reclaiming his health.

The L.A. County Coroner has yet to determine an official cause of death. The toxicology results will take at least 6 weeks.

Ed Sheeran celebrated the end of his North American tour with a major cameo for none other than the Chainsmokers, who shared the spotlight ... and some of their drinks, it seems.

The singer wrapped the U.S. leg of his tour Saturday at Allegiant Stadium -- and once he was done with his own gig ... he scurried on over to XS Nightclub within the Wynn Las Vegas casino-resort, where Alex Pall and Drew Taggart were spinning records for fans.

Ed popped in during their set ... and the EDM duo welcomed him with open arms and free booze!

We're told ES fully enjoyed himself alongside the Chainsmokers, guzzling champagne and dancing his heart out as the music played. Of course, he treated everyone to some of his own talents -- crooning a few of his hits like "Shape of You," "Perfect," and "Bad Habits."

It also sounds like he supplemented Halsey's vocals when the boys played their song 'Closer' ... which must've been quite something for anyone lucky enough to catch this show.

Matthew Perry wanted to leave a lasting legacy beyond his fame as Chandler Bing ... in the form of a foundation dedicated to helping folks suffering from substance abuse.

Sources close to the late actor tell TMZ ... in the months leading up to his death, Matthew was in the early stages of creating the foundation ... akin to what Betty Ford did with her Foundation near Palm Springs.

While Matthew died before he could turn his dream into reality, our sources say several people close to him want to pursue the foundation in his honor ... and they're planning to move forward and get it up and running.

Remember ... Matthew was open about his history with substance abuse -- it's a big topic in his book -- and by all accounts he was sober, using pickleball as an outlet to help with his recovery.

Matthew wanted his legacy to be helping people who are struggling with substance abuse, and not his starring role on "Friends." The foundation could have done the trick.

It's no secret Matthew Perry loved pickleball ... but now we're learning the game also helped him tremendously in his recovery from drug abuse.

The "Friends" actor played pickleball religiously at Riviera Country Club near his L.A. area home -- and he even had a personal coach, Matt Manasse.

Manasse told People magazine ... Perry used the game as a tool to keep him away from drugs and on the straight and narrow.

"He thought it was something that could help in his recovery and he was doing an awesome job," Manasse said.

Manasse noted Perry was so passionate about the game he would play five times a week and talk incessantly about it.

"[Perry] got so much better, always made everyone laugh," Manasse said, adding, "He was competitive, not in a bad way at all. He loved it. When he hit an unbelievable shot, he would tell you about it for days."

Manasse also described Perry as a caring person who was always trying to help others, especially recovering addicts by introducing them to pickleball at Riviera.

TMZ broke the story ... Perry, 54, apparently drowned in his jacuzzi Saturday after playing 2 hours of pickleball at the country club. We're told he was in good spirits during the game.

Later that afternoon, his assistant returned to his house after running errands and discovered Perry was unresponsive. The assistant called 911, Perry's mother and one of his siblings, as well as another person.

Law enforcement tells us ... authorities discovered anti-depressants, anti-anxiety drugs and a COPD drug inside Perry's house. COPD refers to Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, which is often used to treat emphysema or chronic bronchitis. Perry smoked cigarettes during his life.
