Paul Walker and Racer Roger Rodas Dead After Serious Car Crash… Accident Under Investigation

Fast and Furious star Paul Walker died Saturday afternoon in a fiery crash, alongside racer and Always Evolving CEO Roger Rodas, in Valencia, California… and now both Hollywood and the world are in shock.

Rodas was the driver and Walker was the passenger when Rodas’ Porsche Carrera GT went off the road and slammed into a light pole before bursting into flames. Police believe speed played a role in the accident but an investigation is underway to determine an exact cause.

Both men were attending a charity event to support Philippines typhoon victims just before the crash, which took place yards away.

As expected, colleagues, family, friends and fans are crushed due to the loss. Walker’s friend and Fast and Furious co-star Tyrese Gibson was seen grieving at the crash site over the weekend. We will not post the video here out of respect to him, but the star did make an emotional post on his Instagram afterward.

“I will keep your energy with me forever #AshesOfAnAngel fast family around the world we live you and we love you Paul is the heartbeat of this franchise and were gonna see to it that his energy and presence lives on forever #myhearthurtssobad,” Gibson wrote. 

Walker was known not only for his superior acting and modeling skills, but his happy and humble attitude. Everyone loved him and he will truly be missed.

To all the Fast and Furious fans out there… we have no idea how the series will proceed at this point, but there is no denying that Walker and his work will not be forgotten.

We’ll bring you more details as they are learned.

‘Family Guy’ Fans In Shock After Beloved Character Suddenly Dies

Millions are in shock Monday after seeing or hearing about one of their favorite cartoon characters suddenly passing. Many fans aren’t happy but writers wanted it to happen.

Family Guy’s Brian Griffin died in Sunday night’s episode after getting run over by a poor driver. He was sent to the hospital in critical condition, and later told the family that they gave him a “wonderful life” before passing at the age of 8 (dog years).

Brian was known for being an alcoholic, liberal writer who often brought common sense to the ridiculousness of every Family Guy episode.

Writer Steve Callaghan told E! Online that the show’s writers planned Brian’s death before the start of the season in an effort to make the show more interesting and successful.

By the way… the Griffins adopted another dog- Vinny.

Check out the video below for more details on the sad episode. Be advised: it’s a tear-jerker.

Watch This Dance Battle For A Mood Booster

Happy Monday!

Start your week off on a positive note with this hilarious dance battle video. It all went down during last Tuesday’s Detroit Pistons game.

Would You Take A Ride On This Super Tall Water Slide?

Vimeo, The Blaze

I bet your heart is pounding just looking at the above photo. You’re looking at what will soon be the world’s tallest water slide, located at the Schlitterbahn water park in Kansas City, Kansas.

The Verruckt (German for “insane”) stands at least 17 stories tall, but we don’t yet know its exact height. Riders will need to walk up 264 steps to get to the top, according to The Blaze, before riding down on a four-person raft at speeds over 65 miles per hour.

“We have always been family friendly, but this will attract those adrenaline junkies who are always looking for that next biggest, coolest thrill,” Layne Pitcher, Schlitterbahn director of marketing and sales, told the Kansas City Star.

I think this will do the trick. Schlitterbahn re-opens May 23.

Brittany Murphy’s Death Now Suspicious As New Evidence Suggests Star Was Poisoned

Actress Brittany Murphy, who passed away back in 2009, is being talked about all over the news media this week after recent evidence came out suggesting that her death may not have been “accidental,” a determination officials made shortly after her passing.

The previous conclusion of Murphy’s death was that it was linked to drug use, pneumonia and iron deficiency anemia, but now… some believe she may have been poisoned.

One of those people is Murphy’s father, Angelo Bertolotti, who sued the Los Angeles Coroner’s Office and the LAPD to get more toxicology reports after being unsatisfied with the ones released. Bertolotti’s lawsuit was dismissed, but the father continued his efforts and had the Carlson Company test samples of Murphy’s hair, blood and tissues.

Test results came back showing that at least ten heavy metals were way above the World Health Organization’s “high” level, causing Bertolotti more suspicion. Here is what he e-mailed to the Huffington Post:

“Since the autopsy narrative recorded a number of symptoms synonymous with poisoning, I requested testing for heavy metals/toxins. My suspicions were confirmed. Ten heavy metals were found in abnormally high quantities (as much as 9 times over the ‘high’ limit designated by the World Health Organization). These types of heavy metals/toxic elements are commonly found in rat poison, pesticides, insecticides, etc. Since neither Brittany nor Simon would have willingly consumed any such substances, the lab concluded that they may have been introduced by a third party with criminal intent.”

Also suspicious to many is the fact that Murphy’s husband, Simon Monjack, died just five months after his wife from the same “natural causes.” Both individuals were fairly young and in good health before suffering from similar symptoms that one would get due to poisoning.

There definitely seems to be more to this story, but we will refrain from speculating at the moment. Bertolotti is now demanding a full investigation into Murphy’s death.

Here Is A Good Reminder To Be Careful With Your Social Media Posts

Justin Bieber Apologizes To Infuriated Fans After Disrepecting The Argentinian Flag

There is never a dull moment for Justin Bieber

The pop star is in trouble again… this time for disrespecting the Argentinian flag.

During his November 9 concert in the South American country, flags were thrown onto the stage. In a video that hit the web this week, you can see Justin kick the flags off of the stage.

That got many fans upset, as disrespecting the flag in Argentina can land you in prison for up to four years, according to the New York Daily News. Justin claimed he didn’t realize the items on the stage were flags and took to Twitter to apologize.

“Heard about what is going on with me down in Argentina and I’m shocked. I love Argentina and have had some of the best shows of my tour there,” he tweeted.

“People throw stuff on my stage all show and I get it to the stage hands to get off so no one got hurt. That video I saw a bra and thought it was a shirt. I’m being told by my team it was a shirt but even if it was a flag I would never do anything to disrespect Argentina or the people of Argentina or the fans. I’m so sorry for anyone who took my actions the wrong way and I hope you can forgive this mistake.”

“So once again to the people of Argentina, I’m sorry if that was taken the wrong way and I’m sorry for my mistake,” he continued.

“I hope u can accept this. And I loved my time there performing for you and look forward to coming back. I gave my all and I know the fans did there too. Te amo. I would never do anything to disrespect my fans. I don’t like having to defend myself but this time it was needed as I mean no disrespect.”

“So it is all love all around the world. Thanks, and to all the beliebers all around the world. I love you and thank you for always standing by me. Much Love to Everyone. Thanks,” Bieber concluded.

The apology certainly seems sincere, and it makes no sense that Justin would intentionally insult the country. By the looks of the video, it seems as though the singer was being cautious and may have not even realized it was a flag on the stage.

Bethenny Frankel In Tense Verbal Spar With Omarosa Manigault

Bethenny seemed more like a boxing match than a talk show Wednesday as host Bethenny Frankel and guest Omarosa Manigault took shots at one another, left and right.

The two television stars have had a tense relationship ever since Frankel implied that Manigault’s career wasn’t “real” during a past episode of The View.  Frankel denied Wednesday that she made the comment about Manigault’s career, but Manigault insisted that she did, so Frankel made a $10,000 bet. Guess who won… Manigault.

The Apprentice star took to the opportunity this week to call out Frankel… and she didn’t hold back any punches.

“It’s different for you and I,” Manigault said to Frankel. “I am an African-American woman. You get to walk around and be mediocre and you still get rewarded with things. We have to be exceptional to get anything in this business.”

Frankel responded by asking Manigault what her brand is, implying that she doesn’t have one. ”

“You make cupcakes, I worked in the White House,” Manigault said.

Ouch! The fight didn’t stop there. Take a look below:
