A woman in Ohio has been fired after writing a shocking message on a restaurant bill for the server instead of leaving a tip.

The incident took place at Cazuelas Mexican Restaurant & Cantina in Columbus, where a diner, identified as Stephanie Lovins, wrote “I hope Trump deports you!!!” on the signature line of her receipt.

Rather than leaving a tip on her $87.84 bill, she added, “Zero, you suck,” followed by the offensive remark.

An employee at the restaurant later posted a picture of the receipt on Facebook, where it quickly went viral.

In the bottom corner of the bill, Lovins’ name was visible, prompting internet sleuths to dig into her background. It was soon discovered that she had worked for Century 21, a leading real estate company, for 27 years.

As backlash mounted, Lovins attempted to defend herself on a local Facebook page, claiming her “credit card was lost/stolen and someone attempted to use it,” per the New York Post.

She insisted that she had been bombarded with messages since the receipt surfaced but was focused on reporting the issue to her bank.

However, Fabio Oribio, the restaurant’s marketing manager, reviewed CCTV footage and confirmed to The Columbus Dispatch that it was indeed Lovins who wrote the note.

Century 21 swiftly responded to the controversy, releasing a statement condemning the incident and confirming Lovins had been let go.

“We are aware of the situation with the agent in question. Hate has no place within the Century 21 brand, and we are taking this very seriously,” the company said.

“After investigating the situation and connecting with the respective broker, as all companies affiliated with the Century 21 brand are independently owned and operated, we can confirm that this agent is no longer affiliated with the brand,” they added.

Cazuelas Mexican Restaurant also took to social media to stand in solidarity with their staff, posting: “We believe in the power of respect, tolerance, and acceptance. Recently, one of our team members faced an unacceptable situation, and we stand firmly against any form of hate or discrimination.”

The server targeted by Lovins, Ricardo, was later identified as a U.S. citizen working two jobs. The restaurant noted that while the dining area had been busy that Sunday, they had no idea what could have prompted the hateful message.

Following the incident, a GoFundMe was created to give Ricardo the tip he deserved. The campaign has since raised over $21,000.

The controversy comes amid rising tensions over immigration in the US, with President Donald Trump recently vowing to carry out “mass deportations” of undocumented immigrants.

Incidents like Lovins’ firing have become increasingly common, with social media users dubbing them “FAFO” (F*** Around and Find Out).**

Similar cases have made headlines in recent weeks. According to Whyy, a public official was forced to resign after making a hand gesture resembling a Nazi salute at an event, while a Florida man lost his job for making death threats and racial slurs against a left-wing TikTok influencer, Mercedes, falsely believing his state’s politics would protect him.

Kanye West’s ex-girlfriend has revealed the real reason he insists on dressing his girlfriends in racy clothing after his controversial Grammys stunt with wife Bianca Censori.

Amber Rose, 41, who dated the rapper from 2008 to 2010, spoke out after Kanye was met with backlash at this year’s awards ceremony red carpet in February.

At the event, Bianca, 30, posed practically naked in a completely see-through dress next to her husband, 47.

Speaking to Shannon Sharpe on the Club Shay Shay podcast, Amber didn’t hold back when she was questioned on the stunt and Bianca’s very racy wardrobe throughout her relationship with Kim Kardashian’s ex.

She responded: ‘Kanye is for sure dressing her like that. Yeah, he did the same thing to me and Kim. It’s just who he is.

‘He wants other men to want his woman,’ she insisted.

‘That’s what he’s into, he likes that. He likes that men are drooling over his woman. That’s what he’s into.

‘He wants all his friends to want to f*** his girlfriend. He wants everybody that when you walk in a room, that his girlfriend or wife is the most desirable.’

Shannon then quizzed Amber on how she dressed during her romance with the rapper.

She admitted: ‘I was young and I’m gonna tell Kanye now, when I’m that young it’s like okay, you’re buying me this stuff, I do look pretty and cool.’

When asked about an occasion in which she wore a see-through style dress herself, Amber admitted that she wasn’t happy.

‘Yes, I did. I cried. I remember crying. I was in like Italy or Paris or something and I remember crying and arguing with him and being like I don’t f*****g want to wear this s**t, I don’t wanna wear it.

‘[He said] You don’t understand, it’s fashion, I’m a genius. It’s like, okay, I still don’t wanna wear it but I went in wearing it, they ate me up on the internet.’

Kanye and Bianca’s red carpet controversy was the latest in a string of his shocking behaviour, including declaring himself a ‘Nazi’ on social media platform X, which has reportedly left his wife of two years ‘traumatised’.

Bianca is deeply traumatised by Ye’s actions, and she does not align with these views at all. She is horrified by what he has done, as are so many people close to Ye,’ an insider told DailyMail.com

The Golddigger rapper and his employee Bianca were first seen at the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills sharing a meal on January 9, 2023, per TMZ.

It was later revealed that the pair secretly tied the knot in December 2022, just one month after his marriage to Kim Kardashian officially ended.

Kanye and Kim married in 2014 and share children North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm. The Kardashians star first filed for divorce in 2021.

A 21-year-old woman claims she wasn’t allowed to board her flight after arriving at the gate in a bikini. The woman explained her reasons, but she still felt it was unfair, sparking an online debate.

Brazilian model and cosplayer, Kine-Chan, put on a costume of the character Rebecca from the anime series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners (2022), a black bikini, blue wig and black sandals, to attend an event. Chan then headed to the Navegantes Airport, in Brazil, to catch a flight and there, according to her own story, she was stopped from boarding her flight due to “inappropriate” clothing.

Chan described the incident on Instagram, where she explained why she decided to dress in the revealing outfit. “A very annoying situation happened this weekend,” she wrote. “I tried to board at Navegantes airport dressed as Rebecca’s Cosplay for an event. I already knew that I could be late, so I was dressed so as not to waste time and could go straight to my room. But I was told to go home and change clothes because the one I was wearing was not ’appropriate’.”

In the comment section of her post, her fans were quick to share their opinion and there were mixed reactions. Some suggested the model had gone a bit too far with her outfit choice, with one user writing: “Kine I love you, but you could have put on an easy pull-up outfit, like a falling dress or even a button-down blouse.”

Others thought differently and supported Chan. “It’s truly disappointing to find out the airport barred you, a talented artist, because of a cosplay as incredible as Rebecca’s. Freedom of speech and creativity should always be encouraged and respected,” someone else wrote.

Traveling, especially by plane, can be a major source of stress for many. In a viral video, a woman on TikTok explained why she refused to give up her seat to a mother with 2 children, and it sparked a heated debate about airline etiquette.

You don’t often associate science with religion, but one Harvard scientist has detailed the mathematical formula that he claims ‘proves God is real’.

Professor Stephen Hawking, perhaps one of the most notable scientists out there, made his feelings clear on religion – but there’s a fellow scientist that has provided his own evidence for the ‘existence’ of God.

Dr Willie Soon, an astrophysicist and aerospace engineer, has worked at the Harvard and Smithsonian Centre for Astrophysics for a number of years. And in that time he has notched up plenty of experience, so in terms of science, you’d think he’d know what he is talking about.

Dr Soon appeared on the Tucker Carlson Network recently where he provided ‘evidence’ that ‘proves God is real’. It’s the age-old debate but Dr Soon reckons the answer lies in an unlikely place – math.

In the discussion, the scientist detailed the ‘fine-tuning argument’, which basically means the universe’s conditions and physical laws are the perfect base for life to exist.

The somewhat complicated formula Dr Soon is discussing was originally created by Cambridge University mathematician Paul Dirac, who also became known as the ‘father of antimatter’.

Speaking about the theory on Carlson’s podcast, Dr Soon said: “There are so many examples of the ever-present forces that allow us to illuminate our lives. God has given us this light, to follow the light and do the best that we can.”

While Dirac may have introduced the formula, it was way back in 1963 it was written – so many may well not be aware of its significance.

Dr Soon discussing it recently on a podcast appearance will shed light, but it’s good to see what the man himself wrote back in the 1960s.

So, the formula read: “It seems to be one of the fundamental features of nature that fundamental physical laws are described in terms of mathematical theory of great beauty and power, needing quite a high standard of mathematics for one to understand it.

“You may wonder: Why is nature constructed along these lines? One can only answer that our present knowledge seems to show that nature is so constructed. We simply have to accept it.

“One could perhaps describe the situation by saying that God is a mathematician of a very high order, and He used very advanced mathematics in constructing the universe.”

Essentially, he reckons all of this means the universe must have been made by intentional design, AKA God.

A SpaceX rocket exploded dramatically just minutes after takeoff on Thursday, sending debris raining down on the surrounding area.

The huge SpaceX Starship, the largest rocket ever created, spun wildly out of control shortly after launching in Texas due to ‘a rapid unscheduled disassembly.’

No injuries or damage was reported from the unmanned ship, although wreckage was spotted falling from the sky as far away as the Turks and Caicos Islands, a British Overseas Territory off the Florida coast.

The 123m spaceship was meant to re-enter Earth’s orbit over the Indian Ocean after a one-hour flight, although only the ship’s booster managed to land safely after the craft spun wildly out of control.

SpaceX officials said teams immediately started co-ordinating with safety officials for ‘pre-planned contingency responses’ after the craft started to lose control, and may have activated a self-destruct mechanism as a precaution.

It is the latest in a series of failed launches for the spacefaring company, owned by billionaire Elon Musk, with the last explosion occurring in January.

SpaceX employee Dan Huot said: ‘Unfortunately this happened last time too, so we have some practice at this now.’

A statement from SpaceX said that the company would review data ‘to better understand [the] root cause’ of the misfire and noted the explosion happened after the loss of ‘several’ engines.

‘As always, success comes from what we learn, and today’s flight will offer additional lessons to improve Starship’s reliability,’ they added.

People seemingly have to be invited to the exclusive meet-and-greet dinners with Trump. If you want to have a candlelit dinner with Donald Trump, it’s going to cost you.

While Trump is now the President of the United States, it seems as if he hasn’t quite forgotten his business-related past and is reportedly charging a staggering amount of cash for people to have the opportunity to meet him.

If you’ve been keeping up with the news of late, you’ll know that Trump has invited several heads of state from across the globe to visit him at the White House – his most talked about being that chaotic meeting with Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy.

During the pair’s meeting, Trump accused Zelenskyy of ‘gambling with World War 3’, while Vice President JD Vance also hit out at the Ukrainian, accusing him of not being thankful enough to America for the military aid it has given to them.

For those who didn’t get invited to see Trump (whether that be heads of state or high flying tech executives), they’re now being given the opportunity to meet the POTUS for a very hefty price.

According to Wired, business leaders can secure a one-on-one meeting with the president at Mar-a-Lago for an eye-watering $5 million. This opportunity is for ‘everyone who missed the boat’, said a Trumpworld insider, and is likely aimed at the likes of Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg (who can afford such a high fee).

And there’s also a chance for Mar-a-Lago guests to meet with Trump too for a candlelit dinner at the Florida-based resort. As per Wired, prospective Mar-a-Lago guests were invited to have dinner with the president for a price of $1 million.

“You are invited to a candlelight dinner featuring special guest President Donald J. Trump,” part of the exclusive invite read.

“Additional details provided upon RSVP. RSVPs will be accommodated on a first come, first serve basis. Space is very limited. $1,000,000 per person.”

These million-dollar dinners are thought to already be happening, with the first of its kind being hosted last Saturday (March 1), where Trump was described as a ‘featured speaker’.

The invite stated: “Donald J. Trump is appearing at this event only as a featured speaker, and is not asking for funds or donations.”

Those who reserved the invite were urged to send their RSVPs to Meredith O’Rourke who, as per her LinkedIn, describes herself as National Finance Director and Senior Advisor for Donald J. Trump For President 2024, Inc.

UNILAD has approached representatives for Trump for comment.

When a baby was born, this event is always a cause for celebration, especially when it’s time to meet them face to face after months of anticipation. Ultrasounds offer glimpses of our little ones in the womb, but nothing compares to the moment when we finally hold them in our arms.

Babies often make us surprised with their unique features, from a head full of hair to adorable dimples. But perhaps the most surprising twist occurs when a baby looks nothing like their parents.

This was the case for one family whose story has gone viral, sparking curiosity and speculation online. Keep reading to find out how it all went down…

Rachel, Cashier at Celina 52 Truck Stop in Tennessee, welcomed her baby son, Cash Jamal Buckman, into the world on February 17.
However, what caught people’s attention was the fact that Rachel and her fiancé, Paul Buckman, are both white, while Cash appears to be Black.

However, instead of receiving well-wishes, the post garnered comments questioning Cash’s paternity, with some suggesting that Paul might not be the biological father.

In response to the speculation, Celina 52 Truck Stop edited their post, adding: “Yes, Paul is the father. Rachel has African American DNA in her which can skip generations and cause a child to be born with darker skin.”

In addition, they mentioned the possibility of Cash having jaundice, a common condition in newborns, and concluded the post with: “Please be kind.”

Though the truck stop explained, doubts and jokes continued to circulate online.

• One person wrote: “Congratulations!!! I AM sure he looks just like his dad. Where is he?”
• Another added: “Definitely needs a DNA test; what if they accidentally mixed up the kiddos in the nursery?”

At the same time, some people expressed sympathy for Paul, with a further user commenting: “I feel sorry for Paul, being duped like this is a whole new level of creep. Hopefully he’ll wise up.”

Rachel then made a decision to take matters into her own hands, sharing her alleged DNA results on Facebook to prove her ancestry.
“For the haters saying that I [don’t] have black DNA maybe this will clear it up straight from my ancestry DNA results !!!! NOW STOP slandering mine and my [fiancé] Paul Buckman name. he IS the father of Lil Cash,” she wrote.

However, the jokes persisted, with many poking fun at the situation and questioning the validity of the test results.

• “That’s the strongest 1% I’ve ever seen … this looks like a job for Maury,” someone commented.
• Another user with similar DNA chimed in with: “I have that too … and both my babies still look Irish as a boiled potato.”

The story quickly gained traction on the internet, with thousands sharing their opinions and reactions. TikTokers also joined the conversation, adding their own humorous takes on the situation.

As speculation continued to swirl, Celina 52 Truck Stop announced that they would be conducting polygraph and DNA tests on their employees. The news only added fuel to the fire, leaving many eagerly awaiting the outcome of the investigation.

The truth remains unknown, but one thing is for sure: this unexpected twist has captured the attention of many, turning a routine birth announcement into a viral sensation!

What did you think of this story? Let us know in the comments!

Selena Gomez has made it crystal clear her fiancé, Benny Blanco, is her perfect match … but can he prove it where it really counts? Like, beating her face to perfection? Check out this video to find out.

The actress let Benny take charge of her glam (with her Rare Beauty brand products, obvs) in an IG clip Thursday — and the result was pure comedy as he kicked things off smearing pressed powder on her face with his fingers, before Selena steered him to a makeup brush.

The brushes didn’t exactly save Benny — his “technique” took a turn for the chaotic when he went all in on the contour, leaving Selena’s cheeks looking quite questionable.

It’s pure comedy gold, because Benny knows he’s totally butchering it — he even admits it, saying he’s seen Selena use the same technique and somehow, hers always turns out flawless, while his … well, not so much!

BB takes a swing at some highlighter too, all while Selena’s trying to stay composed — but through the makeup madness, it’s obvious … their bond is built on a whole lot of trust.

To seal the deal, Benny goes all in, praising how hot Selena looks — even if the final result is a bit … let’s say, avant-garde. But hey, it’s the love and effort that counts, and there’s no covering that up!

Get your affairs in order because a 900-year-old book in the Vatican has told us we don’t have too long left to live.

The Vatican is full of hidden treasures, many of which will only ever be seen by a handful of people. But what if some of those treasures could tell us when humanity might cease to exist?

A chilling medieval text, reportedly buried deep in the Vatican archives, has resurfaced, claiming to predict the exact year that ‘Judgment Day’ will occur—and it’s just two years away, per Catholic.com.

The text, known as the “Prophecy of the Popes,” was written in the 12th century by an Irish bishop named Saint Malachy and supposedly outlines the sequence of 112 popes, from Celestine II in 1143 to Pope Francis today.

But what has really sent shockwaves through believers and skeptics alike is that the prophecy pencils in the year when Jesus is expected to return, bringing the Final Judgment upon humanity. So if you have any plans in 2027, perhaps rearrange.

Discovered in 1590, the prophecy includes 112 cryptic Latin phrases, each describing a future pope.

The final passage in Saint Malachy’s book is the most terrifying of all. According to Daily Star, it reads:

“In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church there will reign Peter the Roman, who will feed his flock amid many tribulations, after which the seven-hilled city will be destroyed and the dreadful Judge will judge the people. The End.”

Some believe this means that after Pope Francis steps down or passes away, a new pope – potentially named Peter – will take over and lead the Church through its last days.

Pope Francis, now 88 years old, has been battling serious health issues, including acute respiratory failure, fueling speculation that his time as Supreme Pontiff may be coming to an end.

According to legend, Saint Malachy had a vision of all future popes while visiting Rome in 1139.

His prophecies—although cryptic – have appeared to match up with historical events, leading some to believe he may have truly predicted the future leaders of the Church.

Of course, not everyone is convinced. Some scholars argue that the prophecy is nothing more than a forgery, created in the 16th century for political reasons.

Critics point out that Saint Malachy’s descriptions become oddly vague after the book’s alleged rediscovery – suggesting it may have been written much later.

The Catholic Church itself doesn’t officially recognize the prophecy, stating that while some predictions seem eerily accurate, “there have been many more misses.”

Some of the other correct predictions include:

• Pope John XXII (1316–1334) – Malachy wrote “de sutore ossed,” meaning “from the bony shoemaker.” Pope John XXII was the son of a shoemaker, and his family name Ossa literally translates to “bone.”
• Pope Urban VIII (1623–1644) – Malachy described him as “lilium et rosa” (“lily and rose”). Urban VIII’s family coat of arms? Covered in lilies and roses.
• Pope John Paul II (1978–2005) – His description was “De labore Solis” (“eclipse of the sun”). Shockingly, John Paul II was born during a solar eclipse in the 1920s.
• Pope Benedict XVI (2005–2013) – Malachy called the 111th pope “Gloria Olivae” (“Glory of the olive”). The Order of Saint Benedict is also known as the Olivetans, making the prophecy eerily fitting.

There’s no official date given to the 2027 judgment day, so best take the whole year off of work just in case.

Even though TV’s most famous doctor was making $700,000 an episode in its final season, House star Hugh Laurie said he feels like a fraud.

Regretting that he played “a fake version” of a doctor instead of a becoming a real one like his father wanted, Laurie admitted that his “dad would have hated” the shortcut that he chose to follow.

Keep reading to learn more about Laurie’s decision to be an actor instead of a doctor.

Dr. William (Ran) Laurie had huge hopes for the youngest of his sons, Hugh Laurie who was born in June 1959.

The junior Laurie was following in the footsteps of his esteemed father, a physician who before starting his career was a 1948 Olympic gold medalist in coxless pairs (rowing) and a graduate of a college of the University of Cambridge.

When the British-born Laurie was studying at the same college as his dad, he too was a member of the rowing team with plans to train for the Olympics, and then go to medical school.

But then, the young man discovered a drama club, a sketch comedy troupe called the Cambridge Footlights where he met The Remains of the Day actor Emma Thompson and then his future comedy partner, Stephen Fry of the 1997 film Wilde.

Laurie’s fate was sealed
Through the 1980s and 1990s, the now 64-year-old actor appeared in several TV shows, like the BBC sitcom Blackadder, that he co-starred with Fry.

He can also be seen in 1995’s Sense and Sensibility with Thompson, who he was earlier involved in a relationship, Disney’s live-action film 101 Dalmatians (1996), and an episode of Friends.

In 2004, he was offered the opportunity to play a doctor in a new TV series called House, a medical drama that ran eight seasons.

In his Golden Globe winning role as the lead character, Dr. Gregory House, Laurie dropped his signature British accent and swapped it out to convincingly play the narcissistic genius who headed a teaching hospital in New Jersey.

During the show’s run, Laurie became Hollywood’s most popular doctor and attracted a massive global following. But life as a celebrity comes with its challenges.

“I had some pretty bleak times, dark days when it seemed like there was no escape,” Laurie said in a 2013 interview with Radio Times (via Daily Mail). “And having a very Presbyterian work ethic, I was determined never to be late, not to miss a single day’s filming. You wouldn’t catch me phoning in to say, ‘I think I may be coming down with the flu’. But there were times when I’d think, ‘If I were just to have an accident on the way to the studio and win a couple of days off to recover, how brilliant would that be?’”

The couple of days off didn’t come until 2012, with the final season of House.

Laurie again staring making his rounds, appearing in TV shows like Veep and the 2015 science fiction film Tomorrowland, which stars another famous TV doctor, George Clooney.

‘Simply Irresistible’
In 2016, the Maybe Baby star was drawn to a role where he would again star as a doctor, a neuropsychiatrist, Dr. Eldon Chance, in the TV series Chance.

“As a gambler, my instinct is to walk away from the table after even a modest win…Yet I find myself coming back, drawn by a wonderful project that was simply irresistible,” Laurie told the Los Angeles Daily News in 2016. Comparing his role as Dr. House to the doctor in Chance, which was canceled after two seasons in 2017, he adds, “The characters are massively different. Their practices are different. Their attitude to life is different.”

‘Fake version’
Despite his massive fame as a Hollywood celebrity, the star of 2018’s Holmes & Watson can’t shake the feeling that by not becoming a medical doctor, he failed his father, who died of Parkinson’s disease in 1998.

“My father was actually a doctor. And if it’s true that most men are sort of seeking to become versions of their father, and failing, by the way, it seemed appropriate that I wound up being a fake version of a doctor,” said Laurie, who also played a doctor in the 2005 film The Big Empty.

“My father had high hopes for me following him into medicine.” He continues, “I would have liked to have become a doctor myself and I still have doctor fantasies…We live in a world of shortcuts don’t we? And I took them. Dad would have hated that.”

Calling himself a “cop out,” the Blackadder star adds, “Seriously, this is a source of great guilt to me.”
