  • Keke Palmer Wants #MeToo Movement to Look into the ‘Crooked’ Music Industry not Just the ‘Acting World’

    Keke Palmer Wants #MeToo Movement to Look into the ‘Crooked’ Music Industry not Just the ‘Acting World’

    Keke Palmer wants full accountability to be taken across the entertainment industry when it comes to sexual misconduct. The

    “Nope”

    actor expressed in an exclusive interview with People that she believes the #MeToo movement skipped over the music industry. 

    “Bad [sh*t] … happens in all industries, obviously, but specifically entertainment,”

    said Palmer.

    “We know bad things happen in all of them, but it’s almost like the acting world represents a union and the music industry represents non-union.”

    She added that #MeToo, which has brought forth nationwide awareness around the issue of sexual misconduct against women in their fields of work,

    “hasn’t happened in music, and it should.”

    “It’s like everybody is being paid, and everybody’s a crooked cop,”

    she told People.

    “So, it seems like nothing will ever really come to a head.”

    Palmer, who is known for her multifaceted talents, has received backlash for speaking out against disorderly behavior she’s experienced from men in the music industry. In 2017, Palmer accused singer, Trey Songz of

    “sexual intimidation”

    after he allegedly tried forcing her to be in a music video against her will.

    “Being a woman is like, ‘Damn, the biggest mistake you can make is trusting somebody,’”

    she told People. Palmer also talked about her new film

    “Big Boss,”

    which will be released for her new album. It is inspired by

    “being in an uncomfortable situation as a woman … in a space that’s dominated mostly by men,”

    she told People. 

    “I’ve had to do so much preventative [sh*t] … because I can’t trust people to behave,”

    said Palmer.

    “The sad thing is that you learn these things from being in bad situations. It almost feels like it’s a coming-of-age story for a woman.”

  • 6 People, Including a Child, Stung to Death by ‘Killer Bees’ After Bus Crashes into Hives

    6 People, Including a Child, Stung to Death by ‘Killer Bees’ After Bus Crashes into Hives

    Six people, including an 8-year-old girl, were fatally stung by a swarm of bees after a bus they were riding crashed into a ravine and hit several beehives, NY Post reported. 

    A bus carrying 60 passengers, Monday, in Nicaragua, swerved off the road during an

    “hourlong journey from Jinotega to San Sebastián de Yalí in the northwest of the country,”

    reports state. According to the outlet, the vehicle was experiencing a

    “mechanical problem,”

    before plummeting

    “165 feet down the ravine,”

    and coming into contact with a coffee plantation.

    The travelers were stung repeatedly by

    “killer bees”

    with six having reportedly succumbed to the attack. The New York Times reported the victims as Reyna Isabel Olivas Montalván, 84; Santos Arnulfo Calderón Castellón, 38; Dilcia Flores Amparo, 32; Kenia Jazmín Soza Bonilla, 19; and Eneyda Tórrez Zelaya, 47, and her 8-year-old daughter Andrea Carolina.

    Several passengers were carried to a nearby health center where they were treated for their severe marks, while others had to be taken to a larger hospital in Jinotega. Photos show the victims’ whole bodies covered with hundreds of red bite marks.

    The Africanized honey bee, also known as

    “‘the killer bee’ is a cross-breed between the European honey bee and the African honey bee,”

    according to the USDA.

    “African honey bees were imported to Brazil in the1956 to increase honey production in the country. However, the following year, several bees escaped from an apiary and began breeding with European honey bees,”

    The Post reported.

    The bees are reportedly sensitive to the simple sight of

    “color”

    or even the

    “scent of cologne”

    which is considered a threat to their hive.

  • U.K. Becomes First Country to Introduce ‘Three-Parent Babies,’ Baby Receives DNA From Three People

    U.K. Becomes First Country to Introduce ‘Three-Parent Babies,’ Baby Receives DNA From Three People

    The first baby to be created with DNA from three people has been born in the UK after doctors successfully executed an IVF procedure that intends to save children from

    “inheriting incurable diseases,”

    reports The Guardian. 

    The pioneering procedure is known as mitochondrial donation treatment which allows female donors to provide IVF embryos that are

    “free from harmful mutations”

    to mothers who suffer from mutated mitochondria, which can possibly be passed down to their children.

    The donor contributes tissue from their egg which is combined with the sperm and egg of the biological parents. According to the outlet, the baby will have the DNA from the mother and father as well as a small amount of

    “genetic material – about 37 genes,”

    from the donor.

    “The nuclear genetic material from the donor’s egg is then removed and replaced with that from the couple’s fertilized egg. The resulting egg has a full set of chromosomes from both parents, but carries the donor’s healthy mitochondria instead of the mother’s faulty ones. This is then implanted in the womb,”

    researchers from the Newcastle clinic revealed. 

    The process has taken on the phrase

    “three-parent babies”,

    though more than 99.8% of the DNA in the babies are still coming from the biological parents.

    “So far, the clinical experience with MRT has been encouraging, but the number of reported cases is far too small to draw any definitive conclusions about the safety or efficacy,”

    said Dagan Wells, a professor of reproductive genetics at the University of Oxford who took part in the research.

    “Long-term follow-up of the children born is essential. The stage of development when reversal happens is unclear, but it probably occurs at a very early stage. This means that prenatal testing, carried out [at] about 12 weeks of pregnancy, may well succeed in identifying if reversal has occurred.”

    Woman Who Wrote Children’s Book About Grief After Her Husband’s Death Now Charged With His Murder

    A Utah woman, who wrote a children’s book on how to cope with grief after her husband’s sudden death, has been arrested and charged with his murder, per the Associated Press. 

    Kouri Richins, of Summit County, Utah, was arrested on Monday. She is accused of poisoning her husband, Eric Richins,

    “with a lethal dose of fentanyl,”

    reports revealed. 

    According to court documents obtained by Insider, authorities responded to a call from Richins where she reportedly told dispatchers that she found her husband unresponsive and

    “cold to the touch.”

    When officers arrived at the home they discovered the victim lying at the foot of the bed. He was pronounced dead at the scene. 

    The mother of three explained to police that she had fixed her husband a cocktail to celebrate closing on a house for a business, reports reveal. After giving him the drink, Richins told investigators that she had gone up to put their child to bed and fell asleep in the child’s room. 

    However, a medical examiner later confirmed that the husband had died from

    “five times the lethal dosage of fentanyl”

    found in his system. Richins allegedly purchased 15 to 30 fentanyl pills through an acquaintance for $900, according to investigators. The seller told investigators that Kouri

    “asked for ‘some of the Michael Jackson stuff,’”

    the documents said. 

    After her husband’s death, Richins went on a press run to promote her new children’s book titled

    “Are You with Me?”

    which was published on March 5. She now faces charges of first-degree aggravated murder and three counts of second-degree possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute, the documents show.

    Legal Aid Staffer Posing as Lawyer Caught Smuggling Marijuana into Rikers Island, Reports Say

    A New York City woman who allegedly posed as a lawyer was caught trying to smuggle weed and tobacco to a Rikers Island inmate accused of attempted murder, sources told The Post.

    Tatyana King, who is a staff member at the Legal Aid Society, New York’s largest legal aid nonprofit, was arrested at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at Rikers Island while visiting detainee Shyanne Patterson, according to law-enforcement sources.

    A drug-sniffing dog alerted officers after getting a whiff of King’s bag at the main gate. Correction officers discovered bags of marijuana and tobacco in her belongings. King was charged with

    “illegal possession of contraband in a prison,”

    authorities said.
