Antonio Rosales, 32, is charged with first-degree murder in connection with the death of Desiree Robinson, whose body was found in a garage in the 16200-block of South Hamlin Avenue on Christmas Eve. The Cook County Medical Examiner said Robinson died from injuries from an assault and ruled her death a homicide. In court on Friday, prosecutors said Rosales and his sister attended a party on the night of December 23rd in the same block where Robinson was later killed. As the party was thinning out, prosecutors said Rosales found Robinson on Backpage.com and invited her to the party. A witness told prosecutors Robinson came to the party with friends and later had sex with Rosales in his truck. Later that morning, authorities said Robinson and her friends met up with Rosales again and returned to the house where they had partied the night before. While inside a garage, prosecutors say the encounter turned violent. "The defendant admitted that he had no money for t

Ronda Rousey was once again pummeled by a striker and lost her second consecutive bout. The former women’s bantamweight champion was completely outclassed in the striking game by Amanda Nunes, who stopped Rousey at 48 seconds of the first round to retain her women’s bantamweight championship in the main event of UFC 207 at T-Mobile Arena. Nunes landed a big right just seconds into the fight that clearly hurt Rousey, who was fighting for the first time since a stunning defeat at the hands of Holly Holm on Nov. 14, 2015. Rousey tried to throw punches with Nunes, but she had nothing to offer. Nunes was blistering her with combinations, hitting her with virtually everything she threw. “This is amazing,” Nunes said in exultation. Nunes landed 23 of 35 strikes she threw, all of which were powerful shots. She backed Rousey up from the very first seconds of the bout and simply overwhelmed her. The loss leaves Rousey’s future in serious question. Her return attracted a standing-room-o

The rock bought a car for dadda!!! Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson surprised his dad, former professional wrestler Rocky Johnson, with a new car for Christmas. The Baywatch star posted a pic with his dad and the new ride on Instagram, but the sweetest thing about the post wasn’t the gift this time. Describing his dad as a “minimalist” who “never asks me for much,” Johnson went on to tell an incredible and sad story from his dad’s past. “Crazy story, my dad’s dad died when he was 13yrs old. That Christmas, my dad’s mom had her new boyfriend over for Christmas dinner. Her boyfriend got drunk and pissed on the turkey,” Johnson revealed. “My dad went outside, got a shovel, drew a line in the snow and said if you cross that line I’ll kill you. The drunk crossed it and my dad laid him out cold as a block of ice,” he continued. When the cops arrived, Johnson said his mother was given an ultimatum: either her son stays, or the new boyfriend stays. “In front of the entire family, my d

Queen Latifah joins the growing number of crime victims … her car stolen by thieves who had a penchant for punch. The incident went down days before Xmas in Atlanta. Latifah’s security guard took her 2015 Mercedes S63 to a gas station. As he stood by the tank and gassed up the whip, a BMW pulled up and the next thing he knew someone jumped inside, started the ignition and took off. Latifah, who was not in the car, was especially worried about a contract that was inside a Tumi bag that was tucked away in the truck. Cops sent out an APB and they actually found the Mercedes in an apartment complex. There was only slight damage to the car, but the thieves left behind lemonade and fruit punch bottles inside the car. As for the Tumi bag … it had been ransacked but the bad guys didn’t take the contract. Cops are looking at surveillance video, which could help them nab the thieves.

Reynolds' death comes just a day after her daughter, Star Wars actress Carrie Fisher, died at Los Angeles’ UCLA medical center at the age of 60.

Speaking with the AP from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, he added that the stress of Carrie's death "was too much" for her.

Paul Simon spoke out about the death of his ex-wife Carrie Fisher on Wednesday. Simon, who has been married to Edie Brickell since 1992, shared his second marriage with Fisher between August 1983 and July 1984. Fisher died Tuesday morning after suffering what was described as a massive heart attack Friday while on a flight from London to Los Angeles. Fisher’s daughter, Billie Lourd, confirmed the death on Tuesday. “She was loved by the world and she will be missed profoundly,” the statement read.

Carrie was a special, wonderful girl. It’s too soon,” Simon wrote on Twitter early Wednesday, adding his voice to a chorus of people who knew and loved Fisher during her lifetime, and have shared memories since her death. “No words,” Fisher’s “Star Wars” co-star Mark Hamill wrote on Tw

Since making her WWE television debut on March 29, 2012, Renee Young has quickly proved herself to be a natural for all aspects of WWE broadcasting, arguably assimilating to the wild world of WWE faster than any broadcaster before her. A lifelong WWE fan, the lovely broadcast personality came to the squared circle after working with The Score network in Canada for several years, building her reputation by co-hosting WWE Aftermath and interviewing high-caliber talent such as The Rolling Stones on other programming. Young's professional, magnetic and sometimes comedic personality shines through as an interviewer on TV and the anchor of WWE pay-per-view Pre-Show panels. In addition, she also has her own show on WWE Network, “WWE Unfiltered.”

Britney Spears’ rep confirmed she is "alive and well" after someone hacked one of Sony Music’s Twitter accounts, tweeting that the pop superstar had died. “Britney Spears is alive and well, her rep tells CNN,” CNN reporter AnneClaire Stapleton tweeted on Monday, December 26. “It appears @SonyMusicGlobal erroneously tweeted her death. Sony rep says no comment.” In the early hours of Monday morning, Sony Music Global’s verified Twitter account falsely announced that Spears, 35, had passed away. "RIP @britneyspears #RIPBritney 1981-2016," the account tweeted to its 613,000 followers. The account then tweeted, "britney spears is dead by accident! we will tell you more soon," and received more than 650 retweets within minutes. Nobel winner Bob Dylan’s Twitter account seemed to be hacked too, as his verified profile oddly paid tribute to the “Slumber Party” singer after Sony — which owns Spears’ record label, RCA — tweeted the fake news. “R

She runs the world! Beyoncé was named the most charitable celebrity of 2016 by DoSomething.org on its annual Celebs Gone Good list, which recognizes stars who use their fame for social change. The pop superstar, 35, brought awareness to a number of causes this year, including Black Lives Matter, the water crisis in Flint, Michigan, and gender equality. Back in August, she brought the mothers of gun violence victims Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Oscar Grant and Trayvon Martin, often called the Mothers of the Movement, to the MTV VMAs. Several of the women appeared in her visual album, Lemonade, holding photos of their late sons, who were victims of high-profile shootings. She also raised more than $82,000 for Flint by asking fans to donate when purchasing tickets to her Formation tour, and she headlined a Tidal charity concert to benefit the Robin Hood Foundation and support education.

A 21-year-old Florida man has told police he killed a mother of four and then had sex with her dead body — while her two-year-old child was in the home — just for the “thrill” of it. Christopher Shows was arrested on Monday for the murder of Amanda Suarez, 21, inside her Okeechobee home. “Unfortunately, it was no rhyme no reason. He just wanted to know what murder felt like,” the county’s sheriff-elect, Noel Stephen, told WPTV. Police say Suarez recognized Shows, who had been dating her cousin, and let him into her apartment. Shows allegedly made a pass at Suarez, but the Christian mother rejected him. Shows then grabbed a .22-caliber rifle from his truck and shot her in the back as she tried to run out the door. Police say he then dragged his victim into the kitchen, positioned her in the form of a crucifix, and had sex with her body. Detectives admit that there is no way to determine exactly how long the victim remained alive during the assault, and for how long of

Yassssss!!! The most charismatic wrestler of all time, Shawn Michaels is the only WWE player who has played in 4 different generations. In: The New Generation (1994-1995-1996-1997), The Attitude Era (2004), The No Mercy (2008) and Ruthless Aggression (2010). In 1992, he began with a rivalry against Bret Hart "Hit Man", who then played the longest match ever in Wrestlemania (1hr/04 mins). Shawn has won 2 consecutive Royal Rumbles in 1993 and 1994 and he's the 2nd and last wrestler to have made this achievement after Hulk Hogan in 1990 and 1991. His first Wrestlemania Main Event was against Razor Ramon "The Bad Guy" and he lost in the 1st ever Ladder Match at Wrestlemania. He still has got the greatest high-fly in WWE history jumping from the ladder on Razor Ramon. 1 year later in 1995, he has faced his former tag-team and bodyguard partner Kevin Nash "Big Daddy Cool Diesel" and he lost again unfortunately. During the 1996 edition, he has played

Adele’s 25 and Beyoncé’s Lemonade will go head-to-head, and the two musical powerhouses will face off against each other in three categories, including Album of the Year. “We love a good horse race,” Ehrlich continued. “It’s a fine line: We love the competition aspect of it, but it’s really more — here’s the cliché — the family of music. I don’t know how many of those three categories they’re in together that we’ll announce during the telecast, but we’ll probably come pretty close. When you can start with that as a foundation for a show, you’re in pretty good shape. Adele’s songwriting partner Greg Kurstin (who’s nominated alongside her in four categories) also participated in Billboard’s roundtable and revealed that he saw the “Send My Love” singer on the day of nominations, December 6. “We actually saw each other and had a little champagne. You just never know how anything is going to go,” he said. “I was so nervous the night before. But then I woke up to the good news.” The Gr

Justin Bieber has been indicted for allegedly instructing his bodyguards to beat and then steal from a photographer in Argentina. According to TMZ, the incident with the “Sorry” singer happened when he was touring in Buenos Aires back in 2013. The pop star, 22, is being accused of ordering his security guards to beat up a photographer and then steal his money and camera. In 2014, Bieber was ordered to return to Argentina to testify in the case. The Grammy nominee failed to do so and an arrest warrant was issued in 2015. The site reports that Bieber’s lawyers plan to appeal the indictment, hoping that the case will get thrown out.

ASHLEY GRAHAM defied the cold weather in a bid to showcase her incredible curves as she stepped out in New York City yesterday.

Meanwhile, her ample assets were hidden from view with the help of her form-fitting leotard, though the look still allowed onlookers a peek at her bodacious behind

Johnny Depp topped a Forbes list of the most overpaid actors in Hollywood for a second year in a row after a series of box office flops. The Pirates of the Caribbean star brought in just $2.80 (£2.20) at the box office for every dollar paid to him by production companies. It means nearly half the total profit of Depp's latest films were used to pay his salary. His latest box office flop Alice Through the Looking Glass grossed only $77m (£60m) in the US and $300m (£236m) worldwide. The gross production cost of Tim Burton's adaptation of Lewis Carroll's 19th century classic was $170m (£134m).

Jhene Aiko strips down for PETA's new anti-fur campaign. Jhene Aiko is more than just a "Maniac," as her new single suggests. She is also PETA's 2016 "Sexiest Vegan." She celebrated by posing nude for the animal activist group's "Drop the Fur" campaign. “As human beings, we have the power to speak up for animals,” she explains in an interview. “They don’t speak our language, so I feel like it’s up to us to help them and give them a voice. Animals have feelings. They have souls. They have emotions. The way they’re killed for fur is very inhumane.” Aiko went vegan for health reasons, but also supports the cause for ethical reasons. “They’re electrocuted, beaten, drowned, skinned alive,” she says of animals who are used for fur. “Once you know that, how could you think wearing fur is cool? It’s not.”

On her plastic surgeon's birthday, Iggy Azalea publicly thanks him for her "fabulous nose and breasts." Iggy Azalea is transparent when it comes to the work she's had done on her body. Yesterday on Instagram, the Australian spitter took a moment to thank her plastic surgeon Dr. Ghavami for all the wonderful work he's done in adjusting her body. Apparently, he's responsible for the shape of Azalea's nose and breasts. Here's what Iggy wrote: "It might seem obvious I'd hold the man I owe my fabulous nose and breasts to in high regard ... But vanity aside; Ash you're hilarious as hell, talented, eclectic, a progressive thinker & someone who supports women in their choice to do what they want with their OWN bodies (tons of men don't share that sentiment). So cheers to you! I'm proud to call you my friend.”

On Sunday at Survivor Series, Bill Goldberg returned to the squared circle for the first time in 12 years. He was escorted to the ramp by a security force, just like they used to. He stood at the stage entrance as pyro engulfed him, just like it used to. He blew smoke out of his nose like a dragon, just like he used to. Goldberg stood face-to-face with his opponent, Brock Lesnar. Two minutes later, the match was over. He was victorious -- having defeated Lesnar with his two signature moves and a legit (no cheating) one, two, three pin -- leading the 17,000 in attendance  at the Air Canada Centre and the million-plus watching on the WWE Network to completely freak out. Why is this crazy? Ughhh?! Brock Lesnar has been the WWE's biggest star for the last two-and-a-half years. A former UFC Heavyweight Champion, he only wrestles three to five times a year. Each match is treated like a huge deal, as a rare chance to see a special attraction in action. In the era of

 For the third consecutive year, Forbes has named WrestleMania one of the 10 most valuable sports events in the world. Ranking at no. 5 behind only the Super Bowl, Summer Olympics, Winter Olympics and FIFA's World Cup, The Grandest Stage of Them All is certainly among the most prestigious and elite global sporting events.

Forbes also estimates The Show of Shows' brand value at $180 million..
