Khloe Kardashian Oops, Caught Me Photoshopping True!!! 'I F***ed up' on Disney Pics
Khloe Kardashian knows she told on herself when she mistakenly revealed she's guilty of photoshopping her daughter into Disneyland photos -- something the Internet dragged her for months ago.
That's right. Khloe had to cop to deceiving folks about True being at Disneyland with her cousin Chicago back in January. She wrote, "Welllppp I f**ked this one up. Anyways….. let’s focus on something else 😂 ".
Of course, she had no choice but to come clean after posting a video Tuesday, saying True was at Disneyland for the first time to celebrate her 4th birthday.
Fans quickly recalled Kim Kardashian posting a pic of her daughter, Chi and True at Disneyland back in December 2021. So, it wouldn't have been True's first time if that December shot was real.
The pic looked fishy from the jump ... fans called out the pretty obvious photoshopping.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Turns out, the photo was taken in December, but it was actually Kylie's daughter, Stormi with Chi.
Of course, the question now is why it was necessary to go to such lengths to photoshop True??? It's a damn good question, but so far the fam ain't talking.

Logan Paul I Broke My Hand On Arcade Boxing Game ... Drunk Night In Germany
Logan Paul is finally revealing how he broke his hand last year ... admitting it happened while drunkenly attempting to get the high score on an arcade boxing game.
TMZ Sports posted pics of Logan with a busted hand back in September ... but for the longest time, no one knew the 5 Ws and 1 H about the injury.
As it turns out, the Maverick was out on the town in Germany ... and when he came across an arcade punching bag at a bar, he grew determined to stroke his own "I'm a real boxer" ego and get the top score.
Logan says the bartender warned him beforehand about a column positioned right next to the game that has resulted in several broken hands in the past ... but he had his eyes set on his goal.
"I said, 'Guy, I'm a boxer,'" Logan said on his "Impaulsive" podcast. "I go, 'I'm not going to hit the f***ing wall.'"
Sure enough, on Logan's third and final attempt ... he gave himself a running start, wound up and his hand made solid contact with the Column of Doom ... shattering his paw in the process.
But, before he went to the hospital, Logan decided to record some epic #content ... showing off his bones and joking about trying the game one last time.
Eventually, Logan went to get checked out, where he learned he broke his third metacarpal -- which is located at the base of the middle finger.
The scary part -- Paul says he was told it's a career-ending injury for boxers.
"It was very hard to hear, it was very depressing -- especially when you're drunk, hearing things like this," Paul said.
But, Logan says he's recovered now and is already back to training ... and as he told us last month, he is planning to take a fight in 2022.
No word on whether Logan will return to that bar for redemption ... but if he does, we're hoping he takes a glove next time.

Youth Baseball Umpire Attacked By Coach ... After Call During Game
A youth baseball umpire was attacked on the field during a game over the weekend and was forced to go to the hospital ... after he says a coach disagreed with some of his calls.
Sam Phelps was behind home plate for a boys baseball game on Saturday in The Colony, Texas ... when he claims a few of his out/safe, balls/strikes decisions pissed off a coach on the field.
Phelps explained the situation to FOX4, saying it all came to a boiling point in the third inning ... seconds after he called a kid safe at home.
Last night, we spoke to an umpire from Denton, TX who said he’s pressing charges against a boy’s baseball coach after he was assaulted on Saturday.
— Peyton Yager (@peytonyager) April 12, 2022 @peytonyager
This morning, @FOX4 obtained video of the incident.
The umpire was released from the hospital and is at home recovering.@FOX4 pic.twitter.com/fUN5cAjE0q
Phelps says the coach walked out of the dugout, mocked him and then shoved him to the ground after Phelps ejected him.
Video from the diamond shows the coach put his hands near the umpire's face, pushed him hard -- and caused the man to hit the dirt with force.
Phelps says he went to a nearby medical facility in an ambulance and was checked for head injuries, before he was ultimately released later in the evening.
Phelps said he's now looking to press charges against the coach -- explaining he believes punishment is necessary in order to protect everyone involved at games going forward.
"I don't want to destroy anyone's life," Phelps said. "But, I would like this to be a learning opportunity to get this out there."
We reached out to The Colony Police Dept. ... and a spokesperson told us officers did respond to the scene and did take a report. The spokesperson added an investigation is underway.
As for the coach's future at the baseball park, the org. that hosted the game Saturday told FOX4 it's banned the man and his team from all future events.
Of course, this is not the first time we've seen a youth ref attacked this month -- just days ago, a youth basketball official in Georgia was attacked by players and coaches following a game as well.

Phillies' Alec Bohm Says He 'F***ing Hates' Philadelphia ... Apologizes Immediately
Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm said out loud during his game in Philadelphia on Monday that he "f***ing hates" playing in the city ... but afterward, he quickly apologized and swore he didn't mean it.
Bohm unleashed the quick tirade amid a brutal night on the field against the New York Mets ... with cameras capturing the 25-year-old saying to a teammate, "I f***ing hate this place."

Bohm had just committed three errors in the game -- and after he finally made a good play at the hot corner, fans sarcastically cheered ... which clearly pissed him off.
He unleashed the quick barb while looking at Didi Gregorius -- but following the game, he said he was deeply sorry for the comments.
"Emotions got the best of me... Do I mean it? No." pic.twitter.com/QKzMWAoDwB
— Jomboy Media (@JomboyMedia) April 12, 2022 @JomboyMedia
"Emotions got the best of me," said Bohm, who was a former top prospect who's struggled since becoming an everyday player for the Phillies. "I said it. Do I mean it? No."
"It's [a] frustrating night for me. Obviously, I made a few mistakes in the field. Look, these people, these fans, they just want to win. And, you heard it. We come back. They're great. I'm sorry for them. I don't mean that. Emotions just got the best of me."
Bohm then said he actually loves playing in Philly.
As for the game, the Phillies were able to come back from down 4-0 to win the contest, 5-4 ... which we're sure will make Bohm's apology at least a tiny bit easier to accept.

Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo is being investigated by police after he smashed a young fan's phone following his team's loss on Saturday.
The incident went down after MU lost to Everton 1-0 at Goodison Park ... when Ronaldo, as he was leaving the field, appears to smack something to the ground as he walks through an area where fans were standing in close proximity.
The video circulated on social media ... with many fans calling out Ronaldo for his alleged bad behavior.
A spokesperson for the Merseyside Police confirmed they were looking into the incident, saying, according to ESPN, "As players were leaving the pitch at 2.30 PM, it was reported that a boy was assaulted by one of the away team as they left the pitch."

"Inquiries are underway and officers are working with Everton Football Club to review CCTV footage and are carrying out extensive witness inquiries to establish if an offense has taken place."
Ronaldo has since apologized for his actions in a social media post, saying ... "It’s never easy to deal with emotions in difficult moments such as the one we are facing. Nevertheless, we always have to be respectful, patient and set the example for all the youngsters who love the beautiful game."
He continued ... "I would like to apologize for my outburst and, if possible, I would like to invite this supporter to watch a game at Old Trafford as a sign of fair-play and sportsmanship.🙏🏽"
We reached out to police, who told us they are "aware of the incident and dealing with all aspects of the incident."
MU launched an investigation into the Ronaldo situation, but reportedly won't be punishing their star player after the apology he issued, according to The Sun.

Kodak Black Shoots His Shot with Jada Pinkett ... Shades Tupac, Not a Real G
Kodak Black is killing 3 birds with one stone in Jada Pinkett Smith -- both slamming her and asking her out at the same time ... while also dissing the late Tupac Shakur.
The rapper was unfiltered this weekend as he shared his thoughts on the whole situation -- namely, how he appears to perceive Jada and Will Smith's relationship ... and he seems to be on Will's side, saying Jada's been doing him dirty without getting too specific.
Kodak Black diagnosing Will and Jada relationship “You don’t deserve Will smith… you deserve YAK” pic.twitter.com/m7VwutPduv
— DJ Akademiks (@Akademiks) April 9, 2022 @Akademiks
While it's unclear what exactly he's referring to when he says she's "out of pocket," there are many possibilities ... including a recently resurfaced 'Red Table Talk' clip in which she says she didn't really want to get married to Will, with her hubby sitting right there.
It's about as awkward as it sounds ... even though WS himself doesn't seem to be too bothered by the convo, as he joins in and also reminisces on those early days.
Still, it's just one of many clips that have surfaced in the past couple weeks that some point to as proof that their relationship is ... sorta strange, and maybe even a little toxic. At least from the outside looking in, anyway. And Kodak, too, thinks he senses some choppy waters.
That's exactly why he says Jada doesn't deserve a good guy like Will, but rather ... should be with him instead. His rationale isn't totally laid out -- but he invokes Pac to make his point.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
KB says Pac wasn't "all the way gangster" his whole life ... bringing up the fact that Tupac went to a performing arts school in his early days. On the flip side, Kodak seems to think he's more thugged out than Tupac, and perhaps a better fit for her than Will might be.
Of course, Jada still brings up Tupac to this day -- and while she's insisted they were never more than just really, really good friends ... some have said her constant harkening back to his memory is weird, especially as it relates to Will. Mr. Bill apparently agrees!

Sam Elliott is backing down from his harsh take on the Oscar-winning movie "The Power of the Dog" -- words many considered homophobic ... something that isn't lost on the guy.
The actor -- who's often cast as a cowboy type, and who apparently has some ties to the rancher community -- apologized for what he said about the flick back in February during an appearance on the 'WTF Podcast with Marc Maron,' where he went on the attack.

On Sunday, however, Sam was given a chance to clarify -- because, frankly, his train of thought was all over the place and hard to piece together. And yes, the guy issued a full mea culpa ... saying he didn't mean to hurt people, including those in the LGBT community.
While making an appearance at Deadline's Contenders TV event, where he was plugging his new show '1883,' Sam said he meant no harm ... and got pretty emotional as he recounted how many friends he has that were apparently offended by his remarks.
Marc Maron: Did you see Power of the Dog, did you see that movie?
— Jonathan (@jonathanmb32) February 28, 2022 @jonathanmb32
Sam Elliott: Yeah do you wanna talk about that piece of shit?
Marc: [ohh noo] You didn’t like that one?
Sam: Fuck no. pic.twitter.com/BGdOd6scwe
ICYMI ... Sam slammed 'POTD' for what he considered as a warped depiction of the American West -- bringing up the fact a lot of farmhands in the movie are portrayed shirtless like Chippendales dancers and seemingly taking issue with allusions to homosexuality.
He also didn't appreciate the fact director Jane Campion shot the film down in her native New Zealand and tried to pass it off as Montana ... so his diatribe was aimed all over.
Benedict Cumberbatch reacted to Sam's comments at the time, saying he found 'em to be "odd" -- which Sam made sure to acknowledge in his apology ... specifically saying sorry to the brilliant cast, but especially to Benedict -- who plays a closeted gay man in the film.
It's clear that Sam is quite sincere here ... and it would appear that people in the room -- including his '1883' castmates -- appreciated him owning up to his mistake. Good on him.

Jeff Bezos to Elon Musk Turning Twitter HQ Into a Shelter??? ... Follow My Blueprint!!!
Elon Musk is considering turning one of Twitter's offices into a hub of humanitarianism -- and Jeff Bezos, of all people, has a suggestion ... get on my level, 'cause I already did it.
The Tesla chief -- and now, the Twitter board member -- floated a somewhat kooky idea this weekend about what to do with the social media company's San Francisco headquarters ... namely, whether he oughta help turn it into a place where the needy can come and crash.
Convert Twitter SF HQ to homeless shelter since no one shows up anyway
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) April 10, 2022 @elonmusk
He posed it as a question in a poll, writing ... "Convert Twitter SF HQ to homeless shelter since no one shows up anyway," with a simple "Y" or "N" response. As of this writing, upwards of 1.7 million have responded, and they're mostly saying ... do it, dude.
Welp, it sounds like the former Amazon honcho -- and currently the 2nd richest guy in the world, behind Elon -- heard about his tech bro's dilemma ... and offered some advice.
Or do portion. Worked out great and makes it easy for employees who want to volunteer. https://t.co/r0dZWsMxWT https://t.co/NbUNl1bkJ3
— Jeff Bezos (@JeffBezos) April 10, 2022 @JeffBezos
Jeff responded, "Or do portion. Worked out great and makes it easy for employees who want to volunteer." He attached a link to an article that details exactly what he's referencing ... apparently, Amazon's Seattle HQ did exactly what Elon's proposing a couple of years back.
The Amazon shelter -- which actually lies within the Seattle campus and is attached to one of their big offices there -- is called Mary’s Place Family Center in The Regrade ... and it's a whopping 8 floors, spanning 63,000 square feet and with the capacity to house around 200 people a night.
Amazon teamed up with MP to get this place going amid the early days of the pandemic, and by all accounts ... it's been a godsend to the community. The digs ain't bad either.
Sooo, if Elon's serious ... he can follow in Jeff's footsteps to help out his fellow man. EM might have him beat in the bank account lately, but JB's a step ahead in this department.

Danish Actor Mads Mikkelsen Yeah, Method Acting is 'BS' ... You're Either Good or Not
There's a lot of actors these days who take their craft very, VERY seriously -- refusing to break character while on set ... a technique Mads Mikkelsen is calling absolutely absurd.
The Danish actor -- who most recently replaced Johnny Depp in 'Fantastic Beasts,' and who has a crap ton of other credits over the years -- let his honest opinions on method acting fly in an interview with GQ UK ... saying getting that into character for a role is "bull****."
“Make every stepping stone the most important thing in your life. That means everything you do is going to be the last and the best thing.”https://t.co/EoPTpljLNE
— British GQ (@BritishGQ) April 9, 2022 @BritishGQ
In his sit-down with the mag, they say he was made aware of Lady Gaga reportedly continuing to act as Patrizia Reggiani in 'House of Gucci,' even when cameras weren't rolling. Ditto for 'Succession' star Jeremy Strong -- who's been reported to have taken things to uncomfortable extremes on different productions of his.
All the same ... Mads says he isn't impressed with the so-called commitment. While he does acknowledge he appropriately prepares for roles -- including learning a skill he might need to exhibit on camera -- he notes ... "But preparation, you can take into insanity."
He adds, "What if it’s a s*** film -- what do you think you achieved? Am I impressed that you didn’t drop character? You should have dropped it from the beginning! How do you prepare for a serial killer? You gonna spend two years checking it out?"
Mads essentially makes this distinction ... you're either a great actor, or you aren't -- and he believes that while Daniel Day-Lewis (the king of method) has, perhaps, pretentiously taken things too far in the past ... he also thinks the dude's just inherently fantastic at what he does, which is why it works. Not so much for the actual deep devotion to a role itself.
Of course, more and more actors are all in on method lately -- especially Jared Leto, who infamously stayed in character for a number of roles ... including when he starred as the Joker in 'Suicide Squad,' for which he reportedly caught flak from castmates and crew.
Even as recently as his shoot on 'Morbius' -- a character depicted as a disabled doctor-turned-superhero who can't walk properly -- Leto is reported to have stayed in character by using crutches everywhere on set. But when time was of the essence and he had to whizz ... the guy apparently hopped into a wheelchair and rolled himself to the John.
Indeed, it seems Mads' point here is ... you can do all the character-y stuff you want -- but a good actor, perhaps, doesn't necessarily have endure what their character does to churn out a good performance.
Food for thought.

IG Model Courtney Tailor Confronted at Miami Hotel Bar ... Atty. Claims Self-Defense

Exclusive Details
- 3.8K shares
Courtney Tailor -- the model who was covered in blood after her boyfriend was brutally killed -- got a temperature check on how the public feels about her ... and it ain't good.
A video has surfaced that shows someone filming a blonde woman in the lobby area of Miami's Grand Beach Hotel Friday night -- with the camera person saying she will NOT stop recording and arguing this woman (whom she believes is Tailor) has no business being there ... especially since her BF, Christian Tobechukwu Obumseli, was slain just days ago.
The person filming also makes clear their opinion on the matter -- namely, that she believes Tailor may have been the one who did the stabbing ... something CT has yet to be accused of by cops or law enforcement officials at this point in the investigation.
Their IG caption is also telling ... "@mpdpolice does this look like a mentally unstable person to you, as she claims?" She's referring to the fact Tailor was placed in a psychiatric hold after threatening suicide when she was brought in for questioning. Clearly, she's been released from that hold from nearly a full week ago ... and is out and about, not in custody.
Courtney's attorney, Frank Prieto, confirms to TMZ ... yes, this is, in fact, his client -- but he defends her being there, and says this is just an example of people running with theories without knowing the full facts.
He says, in part ... Courtney was there that night with her father, who simply wanted to pop in and have a drink in private -- which was disrupted by this woman who started filming.
Prieto also says this ... "It is unfortunate that a member of the public, knowing absolutely nothing about circumstances and events surrounding the death Mr. Obumseli, would take the opportunity to harass the Clenney family during a time that they are trying to be supportive for Courtney."
He also drops a bombshell allegation, telling us he believes Courtney is the victim of "physical, emotional, and mental abuse at the hands of Mr. Obumseli," while also suggesting she may even have been a "victim of human trafficking," without elaborating much further.
Prieto also makes this clear -- he believes his client was fighting for her life during the domestic disturbance that got cops sent out that fateful day. He claims, "At the time of the incident, Mr. Obumseli was committing a forcible felony. He had gained access to Courtney’s apartment without permission on several occasions in the days leading up to this incident."
He adds, "Courtney acted in self-defense; the investigation by both the City of Miami Police Department and the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office will conclude such. With that said, we would ask for the public’s understanding about observing the family’s privacy at this time."
We've reached out to attorney Lee Merritt, who is working with Christian's family, for comment on Prieto's allegations about DV and self-defense ... so far, no word back.
Of course, Miami PD has not arrested Courtney on any charges thus far -- it's also unclear where they are in the case ... and what, if anything, may come of it in the end.

Dana White says he absolutely hated the sight of Jorge Masvidal allegedly attacking Colby Covington outside a restaurant in Miami ... but he tells TMZ Sports Chaos had it coming when he brought up Gamebred's family.
"Obviously, I don't condone guys getting into fights in the street and I hate everything about it," White tells us.
"But again, this is a business where I'm gonna fight you and there's a certain level of what I believe is man code where you don't talk about people's families, you don't talk bout the kids and you don't talk bout their wives."
White says Covington should've known Masvidal would (allegedly) come for Covington in the streets ... saying that's what happens when people cross the line.
"Especially with a guy like Jorge Masvidal. If you do that to Jorge Masvidal, you better watch yourself when you're coming out of restaurants."
Masvidal was arrested and hit with two felony charges -- aggravated battery with a mask and criminal mischief -- after allegedly punching Covington twice, breaking his tooth in the process.
Masvidal has pled not guilty to the charges ... and is due back in court for a hearing in the case later this month.
We asked Dana if Colby vs. Jorge 2 (or 3, depending on if you count the alleged street attack) could be in the works ... and fight fans will want to hear his answer.

But, it caught a slope, and as it was rolling back to the fairway -- broadcast microphones caught Tiger yelling "F*** off!" at the ball.
Tiger was able to ultimately save par on the hole.
While vulgar, the scene was pretty awesome, because it showed Tiger -- who's had some famous verbal blowups on the course over the years -- is truly back.

UFC middleweight Paulo Costa crossed the line when calling out Derek Brunson for a fight ... referring to the fighter as a gay slur -- and now, he's getting bashed over it.
30-year-old Borrachinha has been going scorched-earth on social media recently ... pulling out all the stops in hopes of getting Brunson to get in the Octagon with him.

Costa's Twitter followers rightfully called him out for the slur ... saying, "You’re gonna end up getting canceled" ... and "@ufc seriously? This is ok from an employee of yours?"
There's more -- "Aside from being a bigoted and just low IQ middle school level insult, it's pretty rich coming from a guy who got styled on then literally humped by a dude who did Naruto hand signs."
The latter tweet is referencing Paulo's loss to Israel Adesanya ... who then humped his back after the 2nd-round TKO.
