Elon Musk's A.I. chatbot Grok is coming for Donald Trump's new probe into Barack Obama ... bluntly claiming it's all a ruse to get people's minds off the Jeffrey Epstein files drama!

Check out Grok's reply to a user who asked if Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has any evidence of crimes committed by former President Obama's administration or if it's all an effort to "distract from Jeffrey Epstein."

Grok's answer is crystal clear, stating there is no such evidence against Obama -- who Gabbard accused of treason involving the 2016 election Friday -- and that Gabbard's claims "appear politically motivated to distract from Epstein file scrutiny."

Australian content creator Blue Valentine has made something of a name for herself on the internet, as she's been bringing in fans with her themed "tattoo tour" videos.

The social media star recently copped to spending a pretty little chunk of change on her tattoos, which cover most of her body.

We're taking a closer look at the influencer -- and her tattoos, of course -- and examining how she turned her body into a living canvas.

Blue Valentine is an influencer and bartender based in Melbourne, Australia.

The content creator began documenting her tattoo journey on her Instagram account in 2019, starting when she was 23 years old.

She's since told People she organizes her tattoos, many of which are influenced by 1950s pin-up images, by theme, and recalled she "wanted to do themes straight away" when she started getting inked.

Valentine also admitted her top themes "got the larger portions of my body."

The influencer put plenty of thought into her body art -- and she's helped come up with many of the designs.

Valentine's creative process begins when she sketches out a series of concepts on an iPad, after which she turns them over to one of her regular artists to flesh out.

She received many of her tattoos during "six to seven-hour full-day sessions" on either a "weekly or bi-weekly" basis, which would run until a section of designs was completed.

She admitted to letting her artists free-hand "filler pieces" during certain sessions -- although she's never tattooed herself.

If Valentine's physical dedication to her tattoos isn't impressing you, then maybe her financial dedication will -- she's spent $50,000 AUD, or roughly $32,610 USD, over the past five years on her ink.

When asked about why she wanted to dedicate herself to her tattoo journey, which has been comprised of sessions that typically run $800 AUD, or about $522 USD, the influencer described herself as "an all-or-nothing kind of person."

She has also been open about her usage of body art as a confidence booster, and she claimed to be "very proud of what me and my artists have achieved."

Ben Askren's wife is calling on his supporters to be cautious of scammers looking to cash in on his medical issues ... alerting her followers of fake donation requests as he recovers from a double lung transplant.

Amy Askren gave fans the heads-up on her social media page on Monday ... providing a screenshot of a fake X account using her name.

The imposter's message was a response to a fan who had been showing Ben a lot of support ... and Amy believes it was a setup to solicit donations.

Andy Byron -- the CEO of Astronomer, who was caught on camera at a Coldplay concert cuddling his company's head of HR -- has resigned.

She went on to remember being there for nearly every one of Felix's takeoffs and landings -- from skydiving and paragliding to helicopter flights and beyond.

Kylie Jenner is getting a thumbs down from several of her fans for her latest fashion campaign photo shoot ... with two of them labeling her "dead eyes."

Looks like the sports world is getting in on the viral Kiss Cam moment at the Coldplay concert this week ... 'cause several baseball teams recreated the stunning scene at their Friday night games!

Check out the hilarious video of the Philadelphia Phillies' mascots poking fun at the situation ... "Clocks" by Coldplay plays as the Kiss Cam locks in on the Phillie Phanatic cuddling up to a female Phanatic -- which looks just like him in a blonde wig.

When the Phanatic couple realizes they've been caught ... they quickly duck out of sight -- just like Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and HR Chief Kristin Cabot did at Wednesday's Coldplay show in Boston. But they weren't the only ones to jump in on the trend.

New twist in the viral Coldplay concert scandal -- the company behind the CEO busted in an alleged affair says a supposed statement from Andy Byron that's gone viral is totally fake.

Byron’s company, Astronomer tells TMZ the statement floating around on social media -- purportedly written by Andy himself to address the alleged affair -- is “not a real statement.”

The faux statement was posted late Thursday after the now-infamous video went viral, showing CEO Andy hugging Astronomer's HR chief Kristin Cabot during Wednesday night's Coldplay concert in Boston.

The alleged couple ended up on the big screen, and both of them immediately tried to hide when they realized they were on full display.

Troy Ave. ain't out of the woods yet after his "fake" shooting video surfaced online ... 'cause the police are now investigating to see if the incident was actually real.

Troy quickly reacts, pulling out his own pistol and firing several shots at the supposed assailant before the clip cuts off.

Geoff uploaded the video to his Instagram page Tuesday -- and 45,000 people liked it, with many believing that Troy was a real-life hero standing up to an alleged attempted robber.

Khloé Kardashian’s making it crystal clear -- she’s all about embracing her natural looks these days ... a far cry from the era when she wouldn’t dare post without a heavy dose of Photoshop.

On her "Khloé in Wonder Land" podcast, the 41-year-old looked back on the filter-obsessed era -- admitting she was editing her pics so much, she basically looked like a cartoon character.

Khloé said it was a messy cycle -- she’d have pro photos heavily edited, then see unfiltered pap shots and feel like she didn’t even look like the same person in real life.

Troy Ave's going from hero to zero ... 'cause it turns out he did NOT stand up to an armed robber -- instead, he and his buddy staged a shootout for social media clout.

Here's the deal ... Troy's pal, chef Geoff Cole, posted a wild video Tuesday purportedly showing a gunman sneaking up on both of them outside Geoff's San Diego area home, only to have Troy whip out his own handgun and fire on the supposed assailant.

Well, sources who've been in direct contact with the bogus bad boys have confirmed the whole scene was fake. No one actually attempted to rob Geoff, and we're told Troy did not actually fire any live rounds.
