Big Brother alumni Raven Walton shared her health issues while in the BB19 house. Since then, she had several procedures done that she talked about while in the house. One concern she discussed while in the house was freezing her eggs in advance of a possible hysterectomy. In the last year though, Raven had to move forward with the procedure and had a hysterectomy. She also got a new abdominal pacemaker at the same time – and shared her experience with her fans on her Instagram. Big Brother: Raven Walton Gets New Pacer. Anyone who watched Big Brother 19 would have definitely noticed the small bump on Raven Walton’s stomach where her pacemaker was located. If not, then they knew because she talked about it near-constantly. Especially, she revealed that she planned to spend her Big Brother money on needed medical procedures. While Raven wasn’t one of the women that dominated BB – she was certainly memorable. If you didn’t watch BB19 , the update is that Raven Walton has gastroparesis. It is a disease where the stomach cannot process food normally. So, her gastric pacemaker helps her stomach empty the food. Back in August 2018, she had a procedure done to get a new one and showed fans her incision site. She also shared graphic post-op wound care videos. Then again, Raven Walton is known for over-sharing. The Time a UFO Invaded Los Angeles: UFO Diary Recreates the Great LA Air Raid of 1942. Today marks the 73rd anniversary of The Battle of Los Angeles, also known as The Great LA Air Raid, one of the most mysterious incidents of World War II -- and one of the most colorful tales in all of UFO lore. It's also a tale we couldn't resist turning into a movie. Between the late evening of February 24th, 1942 and the early morning hours of February 25th, the City of Angels flew into a panic as what were initially believed to be Japanese enemy aircraft were spotted over the city. This suspected Japanese raid -- coming soon after the Pearl Harbor bombing, and just one day after a confirmed Japanese submarine attack off the Santa Barbara coast -- touched off a massive barrage of anti- aircraft fire, with some 1400 shells shot into the skies over Los Angeles during the frantic evening. Strangely, however, the anti-aircraft shells hit nothing. Despite the intense barrage, no aircraft wreckage was ever recovered. Indeed, once the smoke had cleared and Angelenos calmed down (the public panic over the raid was mercilessly satirized by Steven Spielberg in 1941 ), no one really knew what had been seen in the sky or on radar. Were they weather balloons? German Zeppelins? Trick kites designed by Orson Welles? Many people believed the aircraft they'd seen was extraterrestrial - one eyewitness even described an object he'd seen as looking like an enormous flying "lozenge" - and some accused the government of a cover-up. Conflicting accounts of the incident from the Navy and War Departments didn't help clarify matters. As if to confirm public fears of extraterrestrial attack, one famous L.A. Times photograph (see above) emerged from the incident showing an ominous, saucer-like object hovering over the city. This much-debated photograph inspired America's first major UFO controversy -- a full five years before Roswell. To this day, no one knows for sure what flew over Los Angeles that night and evaded the city's air defenses. But since it's more fun to assume that it was aliens than weather balloons, we decided to honor The Battle of Los Angeles by dramatizing it in our film UFO Diary as an encounter with the unknown. And as a special treat for UFO enthusiasts and history buffs, we're releasing the trailer for UFO Diary today. UFO Diary also honors the contributions of the 350,000 women who served in the US military in WWII. The film tells the story of a Women's Army Corps (WAC) Captain (Govindini Murty) who, assisted by a WAC First Lieutenant (Rachel Clark), fights the alien invasion with pluck and ingenuity, shattering stereotypes about women's roles. The full version of UFO Diary will be released soon and features editing by Emmy Award-winning ABC editor Mitchell Danton and visual effects by such talented artists as Antony Vannapho ( The Twilight Saga ), Kiel Figgins ( Avengers: Age of Ultron ) Sean Dollins ( Prometheus ), Rini Sugianto ( The Hunger Games ), Delano Athias ( Polis ), Bren Wilson ( Paradise Lost ), and an array of others. Of course, if you're a movie fan, you already know that LA has been invaded countless times over the years in blockbusters like War of the Worlds , Independence Day , Transformers and V . Indeed, no other city -- other than perhaps Tokyo -- has suffered more on-screen calamity at the hands of extraterrestrials than Los Angeles. Maybe LA deserves it. Whether because of the sunshine, the celebrities, the botox or the generally laid-back lifestyle, Angelenos have been drawing the wrath of their fellow Americans for generations. But on one winter night during war time, 73 years ago today, wrath descended from the skies in the form of a UFO, seen by hundreds of thousands of Angelenos - and there was nothing we could do to stop it. Did a UFO really invade Los Angeles in 1942? Look at the evidence - and decide for yourself. [Update on Jan. 1st, 2016: For frequent updates on UFO Diary , please visit the UFO Diary Facebook page.

Survivor ‘s original winner Richard Hatch is making some big accusations about homophobia being the reason he isn’t on Winners at War. According to the Season 1 Borneo winner, he was supposed to be part of the all-star lineup. In an interview with the Domenick Nati Show, Richard called out Survivor showrunner Jeff Probst and producers. He claimed they were lying, bullying and abusing their power. Keep reading to get the full scoop. Survivor: Richard Hatch Originally Included on Season 40 ‘Winners at War’? Richard Hatch, the winner of the inaugural season of Survivor , gave his thoughts on the current season Winners at War. But the information he shared opened up an entirely new can of worms. Because Richard claims he was going to be one of the twenty castaways competing this season. “I was invited,” Richard said, which challenges host Jeff Probst’s statement that he wasn’t sure if Survivor production considered him. He called Jeff’s response an “outright lie”. Furthermore, the 58-year-old says he completed all of the pre-show evaluations for season 40. Richard says CBS paid for his “physical and pre-production work”. Richard Hatch says that two days before he was scheduled to fly out, someone called to tell him “the show is paused”. He says that the same thing happened to the second Survivor winner Tina Wesson. Richard Claims Homophobia Caused Producers to Drop Him. According to Richard Hatch, the Survivor: Island of the Idols’ sexual misconduct situation with Dan Spilo was the reasoning behind it. The “blowback” from that season was something he says the producers want to avoid. Richard said that producers wanted to “avoid responsibility”, so CBS cut him from Winners at War. He also said that producers didn’t want to see a “naked gay guy” on Survivor . Richard Hatch was known for going around in the buff and even competing in challenges completely naked. On Survivor: All-Stars , Richard Hatch’s genitals rubbed against Susan Hawk while he played an immunity challenge in the nude. Richard started out the challange wearing pants, but then took them off. The challenge involved squeezing past people on a balance beam. As Richard approached Susan he said “Want Some?”. Then as he squeezed past Susan he paused and appeared to rub or bump his genitals against Susan, who was wearing bikini bottoms. It seems that because of the bumping motion, Susan was forced to almost put her arms around a naked Richard Hatch to avoid being pushed off the balance beam. Jeff Probst yelled “Guys, C’mon”. Later, on the show, Susan Hawk said to Jeff Probst that she was “Sexually Violated”. She quit the game (see video below) and planned to sue CBS. She didn’t file a lawsuit because she says CBS producers helped her “deal with the situation”. Many fans believe this meant she took an out of court settlement. Richard Hatch, the very first Survivor winner, says he has “suffered greatly” as a result of “subtle homophobia”.

  • Tarzana, Calif. Occupation
    Paul Abrahamian (23) (pron Ab-ra-HAY-me-en) Hometown: Tarzana, Calif. Current City: Tarzana, Calif. Occupation: Clothing Designer Three adjectives that describe you: Honest, spontaneous and energetic. Favorite Activities: I love to play music so a jam session is always good. I love going to shows and concerts for the crowd surfing, mosh pits, stage diving, all the fun stuff. Traveling, hiking and sightseeing are definitely solid activities. I enjoy the outdoors – like the woods and mountains. I'm a thrill seeker, so essentially anything that can fuel that. I do enjoy a good night out with the friends at a fun speakeasy bar in L.A., like Davey Wayne’s and No Vacancy. What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house: I'd say adapting to everyone's personalities, dynamics, likes, dislikes, all at once. Also, feeling people out and seeing just how much of my blunt and dry humor they can take. I'm not worried about it - I thrive on situations and circumstances like this. Do you have a strategy for winning the game: If there's one trait that I'm confident about, it's that I'm sneaky. I'm very observant, remember things and handle high stress situations well. I’ll probably use people's weaknesses against them. It's very hard to get underneath my skin, but very easy for me to get underneath yours so I think I can mentally crack any member. I'm really good at getting people to do what I want.

  • Ariana Grande, Regina Del Pop
    Ariana Grande, regina del pop Ariana Grande, cantante internazionale statunitense, è nata a Boca Raton il 26 giugno 1993 da famiglia di origine italiana. Per quanto lei richiami “origini abruzzesi”, in realtà i suoi bisnonni Antonio Grande e Filomena Lavenditti emigrarono nel 1912 da Gildone (Campobasso). Ha un fratellastro di dieci anni più grande, primogenito della madre, Frankie Grande, ballerino. I suoi genitori si sono separati quando aveva nove anni e lei ha acquisito quello della madre, Joan Grande, proprietaria di un'azienda che produce allarmi per la Marina (Hose-McCann Communications), mentre il padre, Edward Butera, ha una società di progettazione grafica a Boca Raton Il nome Ariana è ispirato alla Principessa Oriana di Felix the Cat. Sin da piccola ha avuto propensione al canto e alla recitazione. A soli quattro anni ha un ruolo nello show “All That”. Poi si è esibita in teatri per bambini e in musical, come “Il mago di Oz” e “La bella e la bestia” e in karaoke su navi da crociera. Nel 2008 ha interpretato il ruolo di Charlotte nel musical “13” di Broadway, ricevendo il premio di migliore attrice dall’Asociación Nacional de Teatro Juvenil. Ha quindi cantato diverse volte al jazz club di New York Birdland, sulla Cinquantaduesima strada. L’anno dopo ha cominciato a registrare cover delle canzoni dei cantanti preferiti come hobby, pubblicandole sul suo canale ufficiale di YouTube. S’è poi esibita come solista in diverse orchestre. Nel 2010 è stata Miriam, nel musical “Cuba Libra”, quindi Cat Valentine nella sitcom “Victorious”, incidendone anche la colonna sonora e portando avanti la partecipazione fino al 2012, con grande successo.
