EXPENSIVE SNACK
A thief stole earrings from a Florida Tiffany & Co. store last week that were valued at more than $700,000, with police believing he subsequently swallowed the jewelry to bury the evidence. On Feb. 26, Jaythan Gilder, 32, allegedly told staff at a Tiffany & Co. store in the Mall at Millenia in Orlando, Florida that he was a representative of an Orlando Magic basketball player. After being shown a pair of 4.86-carat diamond earrings worth $160,000, a pair of 8.19-carat diamond earrings worth $609,000, and a 5.61-carat diamond ring worth $587,000, Gilder allegedly proceeded to grab the earrings and run out of the store, according to an arrest warrant written by Orlando Police Detective Aaron Goss. When his car was spotted by Florida Highway Patrol hours later, the affidavit details that “Gilder swallowed several items” as he was being taken into custody. A scan of Gilder found “foreign objects in his stomach” which police “suspected to be the Tiffany & Co. earrings” that would have to be collected “after they pass through Gilder’s system.” Goss additionally noted that when in jail, Gilder “spontaneously asked staff ‘Am I going to be charged with what’s in my stomach?”

Piglets Meant to Starve to Death in Art Exhibition Stolen
PIG-IGNORANT
Three piglets used as props in an art exhibition in which they were supposed to starve to death were stolen from their makeshift gallery, a former butcher shop. Animal rights activists railed against the showcase by provocative Chilean artist Marco Evaristti, who was attempting to make a point about animal rights in Denmark. But he had to cut his Copenhagen show—called “And Now You Care?”—short after the piglets, encased by two shopping trolleys, were stolen. The pigs were given only water and were expected to live for about five days before succumbing to starvation, supposed to show what they face in Danish farms—where their mothers are overbred, meaning there are more offspring than teats. Evaristti said that when the gallery space was being cleaned Saturday an animal rights group visited, with the pigs being taken shortly afterward. Police are on the case but there have been no charges yet. “They closed the [unlocked] door while the cleaning people were cleaning the toilet,” the artist said. “After four minutes, they come out and it was no pigs.” He shut down the exhibition Tuesday, saying it no longer had “soul.”

‘Bachelorette’ Star Marries Comedian Girlfriend in Las Vegas
SECRETLY HITCHED
Gabby Windey, The Bachelorette alum and Dancing with the Stars finalist, revealed Wednesday on Instagram that she secretly tied the knot with her girlfriend Robby Hoffman earlier this year. A gallery of wedding photos showed the couple saying “I do” in Vegas—an impromptu decision sparked by an unexpected evacuation from the L.A. wildfires. In an interview with Cosmopolitan, Windey and Hoffman, a comedian, shared that they hadn’t planned on a Vegas wedding but figured, “What better time to get married than right now? Because if the world is ending, we want to be with each other.” Hoffman proposed by commissioning a friend to make a crossword that would spell out “WILL YOU MARRY ME, GABBY” when solved, and they made their way down the aisle to Chappell Roan’s “Hot to Go.” Windey, who first entered the reality TV spotlight on The Bachelor Season 26, got engaged to Erich Schwer at the end of her Bachelorette run in 2022, but the two split three months later. She publicly came out on The Viewin 2023, announcing her relationship with Hoffman.

Congressman, 70, Dies Weeks After Taking Office
R.I.P.
Sylvester Turner, the Democrat congressman from Texas and former mayor of Houston, has died. He was 70. Turner, who served almost three decades in the Texas House of Representatives before becoming the mayor of his home town between 2016 and 2024, was elected to the U.S. House in November. He was just two months into his term representing Texas’ 18th congressional district—a seat that was previously occupied by Sheila Jackson Lee, who died in July. News of Turner’s passing was reported by the Houston Chronicle, which did not disclose a cause of death. A source separately told the Texas Tribune that Turner died Tuesday night, with the outlet noting that the congressman had said in 2022 that he’d secretly been recovering from bone cancer and had subsequently become cancer-free. On Tuesday, a video posted on Turner’s X account appeared to show him in Washington, D.C., for President Donald Trump’s address to a joint session of Congress.
Lifepro’s At-Home Vibration Plate Is the Best Lymphatic Drainage Hack
SHAKE IT OFF

Touted for a laundry list of potential wellness benefits, including improved circulation, boosting lymphatic drainage, and even reduced back pain, it’s no surprise that vibration therapy is trending in the wellness space right now. The fundamental idea behind vibration therapy is that the vibrations cause muscle contraction just like they would if you were, say, lifting a pair of dumbbells doing bicep curls, and the claim is that these contractions help build muscle, burn fat, and promote increased lymphatic drainage just by standing on the device and feeling the vibes.
As someone who is obsessed with taking care of my lymphatic system (and looking for lazy-ish ways to boost circulation and burn calories), I purchased Lifepro’s bestselling Vibration Plate Exerciser on a whim before my wedding a couple of years ago, and while I figured it would be a gimmick, it’s one of the best wellness investments I’ve ever made. If you’re after a user-friendly yet super-powerful vibration plate that doesn’t break the bank, Lifepro’s Vibration Plate Exercise Machine is the gold standard. I have had mine for over a year now, and I absolutely love it. Best of all? It’s backed by a lifetime warranty, which more than justifies the price tag.
As someone who sits for at least ten hours a day, I’m always looking for low-lift ways to counteract the side effects of my very sedentary lifestyle, and this vibration device has been a major game-changer for me. I will hop on it for just ten or fifteen minutes when I feel like I’ve been sitting for too long, and it instantly reduces stiffness and muscle tension.
Plus, while the research is still divided, some experts say it can help assist with fat loss by burning calories—especially when you use it to complement your strength training workout. I like to stand on my vibration machine with it powered to a mid-intensity level while doing arm, ab, and leg exercises for an added boost. If you’re looking to upgrade your lymphatic support lineup, I really can’t recommend Lifepro’s vibration therapy lineup more.

Jesse Eisenberg Gifted New Citizenship After Oscars Movie
A REAL POLE
Actor, writer, director Jesse Eisenberg is now officially a Polish citizen, Variety reported. The Now You See Me star was granted citizenship by Polish President Andrzej Duda in a New York ceremony on Tuesday. This is shortly after Eisenberg’s film A Real Pain in which he and Kieran Culkin play American cousins, won Culkin an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor. “I’m so unbelievably honored,” Eisenberg said in a speech at the ceremony. “This is an honor of a lifetime and something I have been very interested in for two decades.” In A Real Pain, Eisenberg and Culkin take a trip to Poland to honor their late Holocaust survivor grandmother—a story he wrote based on his own life after the death of his great aunt, in 2019, who fled Poland in 1938. After filming the movie in Poland, Eisenberg felt inspired to apply for a citizenship. “While we were filming this movie in Poland and I was walking the streets and starting to get a little more comfortable in the country, something so obvious occurred to me, which is that my family had lived in this place far longer than we’ve lived in New York,” Eisenberg said. “And of course, the history ended so tragically, but in addition to that tragedy of history was also the tragedy that my family didn’t feel any connection anymore to Poland. And that saddened me and confirmed for me that I really wanted to try to reconnect as much as possible.” He concluded, “I really hope that tonight and this ceremony and this amazing honor is the first step in me, on behalf of my family, reconnecting to this beautiful country.”

Greenland Leader Slaps Down Trump: ‘We Are Not for Sale’
OFF THE MARKET
Greenland’s prime minister has hit back after President Donald Trump declared that he would seize the country “one way or another” in his joint address to Congress. Múte Bourup Egede, the head of the semiautonomous island that is part of Denmark, insisted the country will decide its own future. Greenlanders “don’t want to be Americans, or Danes either. We are Greenlanders. The Americans and their leader must understand that,” Egede wrote on Facebook Wednesday. “We are not for sale and can’t just be taken. Our future is decided by us in Greenland,” he added. The Arctic island is home to a large U.S. Space Force base and is abundant in natural resources. Trump has refused to rule out using military force to seize control of the territory and says the U.S. needs it for “national security and even international security.”

U.S. Holding Secret Talks With Hamas on Hostage Release
BEHIND THE SCENES
The Trump administration is holding covert talks with Hamas over the release of U.S. hostages held in Gaza and a deal to end the war, Axios reported. These secret communications between Adam Boehler, the U.S. presidential envoy for hostage affairs, and the terrorist organization took place in Doha in recent weeks and are considered unprecedented. Although the Trump administration had consulted Israel about possibly engaging with Hamas, Israel only learned about the contents of the meetings after the fact and through other channels, sources told the outlet. While talks about releasing U.S. hostages are well within Boehler’s wheelhouse, discussions regarding a broader deal to release all the remaining hostages in a long-term truce might be a more difficult task and no deal has been agreed upon yet. Another White House envoy, Steve Witkoff, was also expected to fly to Doha this week to meet the prime minister of Qatar to discuss ceasefire negotiations. However, his trip was canceled on Tuesday night when he didn’t see any progress from Hamas’ side.

Panama President Blasts ‘Lying’ Trump Over His Canal Takeover Plan
FIGHTING BACK
The president of Panama blasted his American counterpart Donald Trump on Wednesday for “lying” about US efforts to retake the Panama Canal. “Once again, President Trump is lying,” José Raúl Mulino wrote in a social media post. “The Panama Canal is not in the process of recovery.” During an address to Congress Tuesday, Trump reiterated his pledge to “take back” the canal and touted a deal by BlackRock in which the US-based asset manager agreed to acquire two ports of the opposite sides of the 51-mile waterway, which connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The proposed acquisition is part of a larger ports deal worth $21.8 billion, and the transfer of the assets is pending regulatory approval. Trump had previously claimed, without offering any evidence, that the Hong Kong-based firm that owns the two ports is under the thumb of Beijing. The U.S. president has also refused to rule out using military force as part of his own supposed plans to retake the canal itself, which became Panamanian territory after America handed it over in 1999. Mulino added: “The Canal is Panamanian and will continue to be Panamanian!”

It’s no surprise that Bissell’s O.G. Little Green Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner is almost certainly the most beloved cleaning gadget on social media in the last few years—and perhaps of all time. It may seem like a novelty cleaning gadget, but despite its pint-size profile, this thing is as powerful as many of its full-sized counterparts. Now, Bissell has launched an even more portable (and car-friendly) version of its original bestselling cleaner: The Little Green Mini Portable Deep Cleaner. The fun-sized cleaner delivers as much deep cleaning power as the original version but in a smaller size that allows for added portability—just in time for spring cleaning season.
At just seven pounds (seriously, even my cat weighs more than this thing!), the sleek Little Green Mini Portable Deep Cleaner tackles even the toughest oh-no situations, whether it be cleaning up the rug your cat just threw up on, frantically trying to restore the filthy couch upholstery before your in-laws arrive for the weekend, or tackling crumbs, sand, and whatever else your dog (or child) drags into your car. Not only does it offer powerful suction, but it also lifts new and old stains and removes odor like a charm. It’s the ultimate small space sidekick to have in your cleaning arsenal—especially for parents and pet owners.

WATCH: Hot Mic Captures JD Vance’s Dread Before Marathon Trump Speech
OOPS!
A hot mic captured JD Vance telling House Speaker Mike Johnson he did not know how he managed to “do this” for the entirety of the president’s marathon address to Congress on Tuesday night. Vance first says “I have to be honest with you” before whispering something in Johnson’s ear that the mic did not pick up. Vance then says, “By the way, I think the speech is going to be great, but I don’t know how you do this for 90 minutes.” Johnson responded it was harder under Joe Biden because his final State of the Union address was, according to him, more akin to “a stupid campaign speech.” Johnson pushed the microphone on the dais down midway through his response to Vance, perhaps aware their conversation was being picked up. Donald Trump went on to insult, ramble, and rage for 99 minutes shortly after that chat, making his tirade the longest address to Congress by a president in history—beating Bill Clinton’s 2000 speech by an entire ten minutes.

Trump Takes a Breather After Marathon Speech
SLEEPING IN!
Donald Trump had just given the longest speech ever given by a modern-day president to a joint session of Congress and didn’t get away from the Capitol until 11:12 p.m., arriving at the White House six minutes later. No doubt, the TV was on in the president’s residence and the commander-in-chief would want to know how his words went down with the media. It was another late night after a long day’s work on Tuesday. He hadn’t left the White House until about 8:30 p.m. to get to the Hill in time for the 9:10 p.m. speech that lasted 99 minutes—10 minutes more than Bill Clinton’s speech in 2000. It seemed about time to take a break from the spotlight. On Wednesday morning, the White House pool was at the ready at 9 a.m. But it seemed there wouldn’t be much to report. Trump had no public events scheduled for the day, a rare retreat for a president who, by his own admission in his (very) long speech, had “accomplished more in 43 days than most administrations accomplish in four years or eight 8 years.”
