Donald Glover Reveals Doctors Found 'Hole In My Heart' After He Suffered Stroke During Childish Gambino Tour
Nov 24, 2025
The most human truth that we all know and share is the fact that tomorrow is not guaranteed.
Musician Donald Glover, previously known as "Childish Gambino," was in the middle of his New World Tour when he experienced a terrible headache mid-performance. He decided to continue to show and had "lots of fun," but he also noticed that he couldn't see as well as usual.
After leaving Louisiana, Glover went to Houston and sought out a doctor while he was there.
"We were having lots of fun, but I had a really bad pain in my head in Louisiana, and I did the show anyway. I couldn't really see well."
"So when we went to Houston, I went to the hospital, and the doctor was like, 'You had a stroke.'"
"And the first thing I thought was like, 'Oh, like, here I am still copying Jamie Foxx.'"
"That's really like the second thing. The first thing is like, 'I'm letting everybody down.'"
But the medical news went beyond the stroke.
"I know it's not true [that I'm letting everybody down], but I've broken my foot. I've always promised Ireland that I'm gonna be there, and I still haven't been..."
"They found a hole in my heart. So I had this surgery, and then I had to have another surgery."
Glover found inspiration in the experience to live life to the fullest.
"You know, they say, 'Everybody has two lives, and the second life starts when you realize you have one.'"
"You've got one life, guys. And I've gotta be honest, the life I've lived with you guys has been such a blessing; I love seeing and performing for you guys."
"You have to live life how you want. It can only get better."
While performing at Camp Frog Gnaw at Dodger Stadium in LA this past weekend, Glover shared his experience.
Fans were grateful that Glover was okay and choosing to take care of himself.
Glover is only 42 years old, and it's shocking that he's already experienced a stroke and a heart condition that required multiple surgeries to address.
But he's doing the right thing by putting himself first. Though concerts can be rearranged, tickets can be refunded, and people can attend another time, a person's life is not so replaceable.

Trump Is Getting Roasted After Wearing A Strangely Un-Trump-Like Outfit Following His Mamdani Meeting
Nov 24, 2025
President Donald Trump was widely roasted after he stepped out on Saturday in something other than his usual suit and tie following his bizarrely chummy meeting with New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani.
Trump isn't the world's snappiest dresser; he's known for wearing ill-fitting suits and his hair is often unkempt (and don't get us started on his orange makeup).
But after he met with Mamdani—his total opposite in fashion and demeanor—he spoke to the press while wearing a characteristically un-Trump-like outfit. He donned a snappy black coat and what appears to be a lush burgundy scarf. He was sans makeup and his hair was neatly coiffed.
Here he is on a Fox News broadcast looking oddly... stylish.

Here's another look at his outfit.

That outfit looks eerily similar to one Mamdani wore once upon a time—and one social media user was kind enough to share it with us.

One wonders if Trump's stylists were taking notes during Mamdani's visit...and the jokes came flying.
What makes this change even funnier is that Trump previously claimed that he's "much better-looking" than Mamdani, a swipe he took at the 34-year-old politician's suave and polished public image.
Trump has previously derided Mamdani as a "communist" and said Mamdani must "do the right thing" should he win the mayoralty, or risk losing federal funding. Trump said "whoever's mayor of New York is going to have to behave themselves or the federal government is coming down very tough on them financially."
Trump also went so far as to criticize Mamdani for his "terrible" looks and "grating" voice, adding that "we’ve had Radical Lefties before, but this is getting a little ridiculous."
Mamdani dismissed these attacks, saying he's "had to start to get used to the fact that the president will talk about how I look, how I sound, where I'm from, who I am, ultimately, because he wants to distract from what I'm fighting for."

Fortnite Just Dropped A Massive 'Bus Load' Of Homer Simpsons In Santa Monica Without Warning
Nov 24, 2025
Marketing in today's day and age can be tricky. It's never been easy to break through the noise in advertising, but today's marketers are competing with people at the top of their game.
Residents of Santa Monica, California, were met with an unusual sight earlier this week when a bus full of people dressed as Homer Simpson poured into the streets. The visit appeared to be part of a promotional stunt for the newly launched “Fortnite x Simpsons” season of the popular online game, whose recent update introduced a Springfield-themed island.
Leaning into Homer’s well-known love of donuts, the costumed crowd gathered outside a Santa Monica donut shop, quickly drawing a crowd of puzzled bystanders and amused fans.
According to digital artist and X user @TheCartelDel, who captured the phenomenon and shared it on X, nobody warned the locals that this would happen.
He wrote:
“I’m guessing the Fortnite x Simpsons event is the reason a literal bus load of Homer’s just got dropped off in Santa Monica—without any prior warning."
Dozens of Homers mingled with locals, posed for selfies, danced for cameras, and waved at passing cars. Some attendees dressed as other well-known characters, including Otto the bus driver and a banana-themed version of Professor Frink. Even The Simpsons creator Matt Groening made an appearance, drawing even more attention from fans who recognized him.
Additional footage posted by Santa Monica Closeup shows an extended look at the gathering, capturing the chaos and the crowds that quickly formed around the costumed visitors.

Folks had some thoughts about that many Homers.
Folks felt bad for the people at the donut shop who had to deal with all the Homers.
Many folks saw this for what it was and wanted to congratulate the marketing team.
The Fortnite update is sure to be hotly anticipated, that's for sure.

Fans Defend Millie Bobby Brown After People Rush To Judgment Because Her Baby Cried During Video Shoot
Nov 24, 2025
It's easy to rush to judgment when we witness someone behaving a certain way or making a decision that's different from what we would do.
It's arguably even easier to rush to judgment about celebrities, whether or not this was something done consciously in front of fans or viewers on television or social media, or in a candid moment when they didn't know they were being watched or recorded.
Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown was recently the subject of public scrutiny, particularly regarding the parenting of her husband, Jake Bongiovi.
Ahead of the season premiere of the fifth and final season of the Netflix phenomenon Stranger Things, which launched Brown to international stardom, Brown and her co-stars took part in BuzzFeed Celeb's "Kitten Interview" series, in which the cast answered questions the while playing with adorable kittens.
- YouTubeyoutu.be
At the beginning of the video, a baby could be heard crying off-camera.
Brown made it known that the crying baby was the baby girl whom she and Bongiovi adopted this past summer and whose name has not been made public, before making it clear which of the many adorable kittens she would be playing with alongside co-star Noah Schnapp.
She said:
"That's my child. That's my kitten."
What could have been an inconsequential moment instead became a viral debate, thanks to a post by @hopelessredhead, which went on to gain over 11 million views:
The post seemed to question why Brown's baby was at the shoot in the first place, and why Bongiovi wasn't caring for the child to allow Brown to do her interview uninterrupted.
"Is the father there like... ever?"
Bongiovi's parenting style had previously come under fire this past summer, when Brown was caught fighting her way through a crowd of paparazzi, all the while shielding her baby, with Bongiovi keeping a noticeable distance behind them.
Many people were quick to agree with @hopelessredhead's post, going on to assume that Brown seems to be a single parent in a two-parent household, and expressing their sadness for her apparently imbalanced co-parenting situation:
However, not everyone was so quick to rush to judgment.
Indeed, several X users stepped up to support of Brown and Bongiovi.
It remains unclear whether or not Bongiovi was present or on dad duty that day. What is clear is how easy it is to make rash judgments or assumptions without any evidence to back them up.
Everyone is certainly entitled to their opinion. That being said, it's usually wise to hold off until you have all the necessary facts.
We should keep in mind that many new mothers don't want to be away from their child, so it's possible Brown chose to bring her daughter to the interview.

Zohran Mamdani Doubles Down On Calling Trump A 'Fascist' After Bizarrely Chummy Meeting
Nov 24, 2025
New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani doubled down in an interview with Meet the Press on his decision to call President Donald Trump a "fascist," saying he sticks by something he's already "said in the past."
During their meeting in the Oval Office on Friday, a reporter asked Mamdani about a bipartisan resolution passed in the House of Representatives condemning socialism, a move that coincided with the democratic socialist Mamdani's visit to Washington.
Mamdani stood firm, saying that while he acknowledges that he and Trump are on opposite ends of the political spectrum, "the place of agreement is the work that needs to be done to make New York City affordable." When the reporter asked Mamdani if he could "affirm that you think President Trump is a fascist," Trump cut in before Mamdani could answer.
Trump said:
"That's okay. You can just say yes. I don't mind. It's easier than explaining it."
Trump even gave Mamdani a pat on the arm, an oddball moment during the already bizarrely chummy meeting. Mamdani smiled and responded to the reporter with an emphatic "yes."
You can watch what happened in the video below.
During a sit-down with Meet the Press moderator Kristin Welker, Mamdani doubled down:
"That’s something that I’ve said in the past. I say it today. And I think what I appreciated about the conversation that I had with the president was that we were not shy about the places of disagreement, about the politics that has brought us to this moment."
"And we also wanted to focus on what it could look like to deliver on a shared analysis of an affordability crisis for New Yorkers.”
He added:
"Everything that I've said in the past, I continue to believe. And that's the thing that I think is important in our politics, is that we don't shy away from where we have disagreements, but we understand what it is that brings us to that table, because I'm not coming into the Oval Office to make a point or make a stand."
"I'm coming in there to deliver for New Yorkers. And a few weeks ago, I was asked by a reporter three words to describe myself. I said, "New York City." And that's what animated that conversation. How do we deliver for the people of New York City?"
You can hear what he said in the video below.
People had thoughts.
At one point, Welker also asked Mamdani about Trump's prior threat that the National Guard would be deployed to New York City.
Mamdani would not disclose whether Trump offered any assurance about keeping federal forces out of the city. He did say, however, that he urged the president against deploying the National Guard, arguing that the city was managing public safety effectively.
Mamdani said he "made it very clear what we wanted to do was to deliver public safety and affordability, and the NYPD would be the ones to do so."
