Finally Friday! Let’s wrap up the week with a bang! From breaking news to viral TikToks, consider this your guide to what’s hot, what’s happening, and what’s worth binging this weekend.
But before we start, here’s a lil fun task for you:
📌 Make a list of 3 things you’re grateful for today. Yes, the small stuff counts too!
Now, let’s get started…
So, here’s what the Internet thinks about Barack and Michelle Obama
Alright, so here’s the tea that’s got the internet buzzing. A post on X has gone viral, claiming that Jennifer Aniston is dating none other than former President Barack Obama. Yep, you heard that right. Supposedly, someone from Jen’s inner circle leaked this juicy detail, saying she casually admitted it during a hangout with friends, and get this - a psychic was also there. Sounds wild, right?
Now, let’s rewind a bit. These rumors didn’t pop up out of nowhere. People started speculating about Barack and Michelle Obama’s relationship after Michelle missed some high-profile events, like Jimmy Carter’s funeral and even Barack’s birthday shoutout. Her team said she was on an extended vacation in Hawaii, but of course, the internet had thoughts. Some even claimed that Michelle has “checked out” of D.C. life altogether.
And about Jen and Barack? This isn’t the first time these rumors have made the rounds. A magazine cover once boldly claimed, “The truth about Jen & Barack!” and alleged that Hollywood and Washington were buzzing about their connection. Jennifer herself laughed it off on Jimmy Kimmel Live! - she straight-up denied it but admitted she wasn’t mad about the attention.
Oh, and here’s the cherry on top: Meghan McCain recently jumped in on her podcast, saying she’s heard whispers from serious journalists about Barack and Michelle possibly divorcing.
BTW, Camila Cabello isn’t a flop
Over the weekend, she performed at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, but here’s the kicker - it was nearly empty. Photos of the show went viral, and the internet, as usual, had a lot to say. Some critics were quick to call it a “flop” and questioned why artists even book arenas they can’t fill. Ouch, right?
But here’s the twist: not everyone piled on. Rapper Mod Sun stepped up and applauded Camila for taking the stage anyway, saying most artists would’ve canceled and issued a “mental health” statement. “Empty shows are still shows,” he said, and honestly, respect.
Now, before you start wondering what went wrong, there’s some context. This wasn’t your typical concert. It was a corporate event, and only a few tickets were available to the public. Big difference!

Would you like some pizza for breakfast?
According to NYC-based dietitian Chelsey Amer, a slice of pizza can sometimes be a better breakfast choice than a bowl of sugary cereal. Yep, you heard that right.
Here’s why: pizza has a decent balance of carbs, protein, and fat, whereas your average sugary cereal with low-fat milk is mostly sugar and carbs. Surprising, isn’t it? Now, don’t go thinking pizza is suddenly a healthy food - Dr. Lauren Kelly points out that the real message here is to re-evaluate what we consider “healthy.” Pizza, while often seen as a cheat meal, might just be more balanced than those sugar-filled cereals we’re so used to.
But let’s not go overboard. Chelsey Amer isn’t suggesting pizza become your go-to breakfast. Instead, she encourages focusing on meals that are high in fiber, lean protein, and healthy fats to keep you energized throughout the morning.
Lastly, you should cross out these places on your bucket list
International SOS, a global risk management company, just dropped its annual risk map, and the findings are pretty intense.
At the top of the “extreme risk” list are Somalia, Sudan, South Sudan, and the Central African Republic. Joining them are Yemen, Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, and Ukraine - places grappling with severe security challenges. A step down on the danger scale are countries like Mali, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Myanmar, and even Haiti, all tagged with “high” security risks.
This map isn’t just about security, though. It also looks at medical risks, climate change, and even mental health to give travelers and businesses a heads-up on what they might face. And get this - conflicts in places like Sudan and Lebanon have led to some big risk rating changes, with no country seeing its security risk downgraded this year. Yup, things are heating up everywhere.
On the medical front, Bolivia’s risk jumped to “high,” while Libya improved slightly, moving from “extreme” to “high.” But if you’re wondering where it’s safest, countries like Canada, the US, Spain, France, and Vietnam are among the top picks for low-security risks.
