Luigi Mangione's slew of Chinese supporters might have been behind the shocking SHEIN ad, highlighting the suspected killer's good looks, that's gone viral ... according to sources with direct knowledge of the situation.

Our sources say Luigi's mountain of fans in China could be the motivation for the third-party vendor responsible for the flattering Luigi ad released online by SHEIN to promote the China-based company's clothing line.

And there's data to back it up, which can be found on an online dashboard -- created by a Luigi fan -- tracking how many donations and letters Mangione receives at the Metropolitan Detention Center in NYC. Luigi is awaiting federal and state trials for allegedly fatally shooting UnitedHealthCare CEO Brian Thompson in Dec. 2024.

Donald Trump and Rosie O’Donnell are sparring on social media yet again ... this time after the prez reminded followers he's "giving serious thought" to revoking the actress' U.S. citizenship.

Braxton Berrios has earned himself a decent-sized fanbase over his career in the NFL -- and his girlfriend, Alix Earle, has a pretty sizable following, too!

The Houston Texans wide receiver's been linked to the influencer since 2023, when eagle-eyed fans shared videos of them out together on TikTok ... and they went public with their romance the same year.

We're going to take a look at the personal and professional lives of the social media powerhouse and see how she ended up with the athlete.

Alix was born and raised in New Jersey to a pair of parents who both attended Lynn University in Florida.

The influencer's parents split up at an early age, and her father later married Ashley Dupré -- who had already become a household name about 20 years earlier when she was involved in a prostitution scandal centered around former New York governor Eliot Spitzer.

Alix's mother and her stepmother eventually grew close, and Alix told Elle she was happy to be a member of what she described as a "very modern" family in 2023.

The social media star followed in her parents' footsteps and headed to Florida for college, where she attended the University of Miami and graduated with a marketing degree in 2023.

Alix kicked off her social media career during her freshman year of college, when she began sharing videos on her TikTok account.

Her popularity on the platform received a serious boost in 2022, when she documented her struggle with acne in several videos shared on her account.

She later gained extra exposure for her widely followed "Get ready with me" videos, in which she shows off her outfits and makeup routines.

Alix currently has 7.5 million followers on her TikTok account, as well as 4.5 million on Instagram, and she was included on the Time100 Creators 2025 list, which ranks the most influential digital content creators in the world.

Social media isn't Alix's only focus ... she's embarked on a career as a podcast host over the past few years.

Alix started the "Hot Mess With Alix Earle" podcast in 2023, and she formerly worked with podcasting star Alex Cooper -- although the show was dropped by Cooper's Unwell Network in 2025.

The show exploded in popularity upon its debut, and it briefly beat "The Joe Rogan Experience" on Spotify's podcast chart.

Oh, and she's going to be heading to TV, too, because she's set to compete on the 34th season of ABC's "Dancing With The Stars."

Alix and Braxton were first spotted together back in 2023, when a video showing them meeting a fan at a restaurant in Miami began circulating on TikTok.

It's worth mentioning Braxton isn't the first athlete the influencer has dated in the past, as she was linked to professional baseball player Tyler Wade for a few months in 2022.

She eventually moved on with Berrios, and they made their red carpet debut at the 2023 ESPY Awards ceremony.

Over the weekend ... Abby and Brittany posted to TikTok -- the only social media they are on -- with a short vid that featured the assorted baby snaps, with a remix of Dr. Dre's "Nuthin' But A 'G' Thang" spinning. The twins simply wrote "Blessed" ... along with several hashtags, like "twins," "sisterhood" and "respect."

Salma Hayek just proved she’s aging like fine wine ... dropping a scorching birthday snap that's leaving her fans in flames!

Kristin Cavallari is kicking off the new school year by detailing her "bad girl era" ... and she says it all started when she was only in 4th grade.

Check it out ... on today's episode of Cavallari's "Let's Be Honest Podcast," she told her millions of listeners her 4th-grade teacher read through her diary, which had the word f*** written in it.

The reality star disclosed her 8th grade school year later became the "turning point" for her rebellious ways ... faking sickness and calling out, piercing her bellybutton with safety pins, taking trains without an adult, and quaffing airplane bottles of booze at school.

Britney Spears posted a brand spankin' new dancing video ... and, we mean that quite literally, 'cause she's giving her bottom some crisp smacks in the clip.

A flower emoji pops up on Brit's chest periodically ... 'cause the chest fabric's so see-through it seems her nipples are fully visible every so often.

Denise Richards is proving she's unbothered and glowing brighter than ever -- stepping out amid her divorce to celebrate one of her most iconic roles, and she had her girls right by her side.

The actress hit the red carpet at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles Saturday night for a special screening of her 1999 cult classic, "Drop Dead Gorgeous."

Denise looked radiant in a sleek black ensemble, and she had her daughters Sami and Eloise with her for the big night.

Donald Trump says his longtime ally Rudy Giuliani has earned the Presidential Medal of Freedom ... while the latter recovers from a horrific car accident.

Influencer Esmeralda Ferrer Garibay has died in a shocking tragedy gripping Mexico after her body, along with her husband's and two children's, was found abandoned in a pickup truck.

Authorities say four bodies wrapped in plastic were discovered inside a truck parked in Guadalajara's San Andrés neighborhood on August 22. Prosecutors later confirmed the victims were the 32-year-old content creator, her 36-year-old husband, and their kids, ages 13 and 7.

Mexican newspaper El Financiero reports three men who worked at a mechanic shop where the truck was dumped were arrested, but quickly released due to insufficient evidence. Officials say the investigation remains ongoing ... therefore, no motive has been released.

Garibay launched her TikTok account in April 2020 with lip-sync videos before shifting into lifestyle and travel content that pulled in more than 44,000 followers.

Her last post came just weeks before her death.
