Nicole Kidman shoves Salma Hayek in tense moment at Paris fashion show
When you envision to celebrities fighting in public, it’s easy for the brain to wander over to the D-list of stars, those who are battling to remain relevant — but not two superstars like Nicole Kidman and Salma Hayek.
But that appears to be what happened when the two women had a testy exchange at Paris Fashion Week last month, Denette Wilford reported.
The incident appeared to show Hayek trying to angle Kidman towards hungry photographers and the latter not liking that one bit — to the point of wrenching Salma’s hand off her and turning away. Justified or an overreaction?

Kanye West told wife Bianca Censori he wanted to have sex with her mom: Lawsuit
In celebrity news that we hope isn’t true, Kanye West has been accused of — among a slew of other allegations — trying to have sex with estranged wife Bianca Censori’s mother.
Did your face just scrunch up like ours? We totally get it.
It’s the latest in a string of lawsuits from former employees of the rapper, this one filed by his former assistant Lauren Pisciotta, who claimed her boss spiked her drink at a Sean “Diddy” Combs recording session before sexually assaulting her.
But Pisciotta’s filing also involved a text message the rapper allegedly planned to send to Censori, in which he apparently declared he wanted his girlfriend to watch him have sex with her mother.

Dad arrested for allegedly killing missing daughter’s stalker, 67, after finding him with teen
An Arkansas man who allegedly shot and killed his 14-year-old daughter’s stalker was arrested earlier this month.
When parents Aaron and Heather Spencer realized their daughter was missing, they notified police but the dad took off in search of the teen.
He ended up finding her — in the vehicle of the 67-year-old man who had allegedly stalked and raped their child over the summer, Wilford reported.
A confrontation escalated, leading to the suspected rapist being fatally shot.
Spencer was arrested on a “preliminary charge” of first-degree murder,” and a fundraising page was launched to help with his legal fees.

New rule trips up Simon Benoit amid Maple Leafs’ penalty parade
It’s early days but coach Craig Berube has already made quite the impact on the Maple Leafs as his players are listening to what he is preaching to them.
There’s been a greater devotion to details and smarter decisions being made in the defensive zone — but in Game 2 of the regular season, there were needless penalties being taken, including Simon Benoit’s two minors.
However, Berube cut the defenceman some slack, Lance Hornby reported, not just because he wasn’t aware of the rule change, but also because the coach thought it was a clean defensive play.
EDITORIAL: A dumb attempt to kill the King
With the Grits sinking further and further in the polls, many in the Liberal Party want the anchor weighing them down – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau – to resign as the leader, a recent editorial pointed out.
Given that Trudeau won’t step down, though, some Liberals are ready to channel Democrats in the U.S. and do to the PM what the Dems did to Joe Biden.
But if you’re planning a coup, you don’t talk about it — not to the media and certainly not before you’re ready to pull the trigger — metaphorically, of course.
That only allows Trudeau to be ready for it and plan his own next steps.
Someone in the Liberal Party needs to call Nancy Pelosi.
