For the first time since his May departure from the show, Caleb Kennedy is opening up about his "American Idol" experience.The 16-year-old country singer began his "Idol" journey in October 2020 and eventually made it to the Top 5 before abruptly leaving the show after a controversial social media post resurfaced online. In a Snapchat post, Kennedy appeared beside someone wearing what seems to be a Ku Klux Klan hood. “Now that I’m home, I try to be me, but I’m also scared of someone videoing me when I go to Academy or Walmart. You have to worry about things like that now," Kennedy told the Spartanburg Herald-Journal, part of the USA TODAY Network, on Thursday. While speaking about his time on the show, Kennedy admitted that he underestimated the pressures of performing on a popular show like "Idol." "You think it’s all going to be fun, and a lot of it is, but it will slap you in the face really quickly. I wasn’t ready for it," he said. “There’s no way to emotionally prepare for 'Idol.' Because no one is ready for it, no matter how you prepare."However, he noted that he didn't have regrets despite the challenges, adding "I did love it."Since his exit, Kennedy said he is continuing…

Ryan Horsfall is on trial at Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court accused of the rape and two other sexual acts on a girl who was 15 at the time in April 2018. The jury has already heard from the girl in question, now 18, when her police interview was played and she was later cross examined in court. She said she had met Horsfall earlier that day, they had been heading home through the war memorial when he stood on her foot, swung her round and began kissing her. The girl said she told him repeatedly she “had to go” but he continued and the incident culminated in them having sex when she did not want to in a nearby alleyway.

WhatsApp’s massive popularity has given rise to many third-party clone apps that purport to add missing features such as syncing chats across platforms. Of late, a new fork called GB WhatsApp has been doing the rounds of the internet. It claims to circumvent the ‘ban’ that WhatsApp threatened to dole out to users who didn’t accept its controversial privacy policy. However, it is worth noting that WhatsApp’s privacy policy is still being contested in court and the platform hasn’t gone around banning anyone. A cursory glance at the GBWhatsApp website is enough to tell us that its developers are up to no good. Some of the ‘features’ listed above are flat out wrong. WhatsApp already lets you hide your last seen via a toggle in the settings. It also lets you change your theme, although the choices are quite limited. Everything else is a minor QoL improvement, but nothing that most users will use throughout the course of daily use. However, one of the most egregious claims made by the developer is as follows:Apparently, you can just’ sideload’ GB WhatsApp onto your iPhone by ‘downloading’ the installer file. That is flat out impossible, as Apple doesn’t users sideload apps on to…
