Over the weekend, Brittany took to Instagram to share some milestone news for her and the Wild ‘n Out host’s oldest son: he’s starting fourth grade at just 7 years old! In a lengthy post, she gushed about her “bright babies,” which also include daughter Powerful Queen, 3, and son Rise Messiah, 22 months, gearing up for their big day. She wrote:

“Back to school for all of us!! My bright babies!! And my Rizzy who is already ready for school and had to jump in before we all were off!!”

She then raved about Golden’s advanced intelligence:

“Golden is 7 in 4th grade (yes he’s advanced and yes his emotional intelligence matches his cognitive intellect)”

Wow!! What a smart lil guy! We hope he’ll be OK hanging with all those 4th graders!

She also added that “last year Golden ran for and was elected as his class representative,” so it’s clear that this kid has big ambitions already! Good for him!

As for Powerful Queen, she wrote:

“our Pretty Pow is already in Pre-K big kids class! Weee so proud!! … Miss Pow is quite popular so they are doing well — can’t wait for this year and what they will do!”

How exciting! She’s clearly doing something right as a momma! See her full post (below):

True Thompson started the first grade this week, and that major milestone made the 40-year-old reality star SUPER emotional! After taking True to her first day of school on Monday, Khloé took to Snapchat to get real about how much she is struggling with her 6-year-old being a first grader. She said:

“It’s always such a rollercoaster of emotions when True starts a new school year. This year is a big milestone for her… first grade. I’m not going to lie, I am having a really hard time processing the fact that she’s going into first grade.”

Of course, the momma is “so proud” of True. But at the same time, Khloé confessed there is “this strange mixture of loss, anxiety and fear” that comes with this next stage in her kid’s life:

“There’s this undeniable feeling that I’m losing parts of who she was with each day that passes. The little parts of who she used to be are being replaced with new parts that will make up the next little amazing person she will become. And I miss her. All the little versions of her who I used to know. Time moves fast, faster every year it feels like, and this new school year is a reminder to me to fully embrace every moment and soak it all in.”

Aww! Don’t worry, Khlo! You are definitely not alone in those feelings! So many parents can relate! Gushing about True, she concluded:

“She is more than I could ever have dreamed of in a daughter. Seeing her grow makes me excited for the years and experiences ahead.”

That’s seriously so sweet!! And we hope True had the best first day of school!

It’s the time of year again where kids return to school to learn and fill their young minds… Sometimes with something they can’t unsee, unfortunately! Like a middle-aged man performing a lap dance with a school mascot!

An Atwater, California father is as confused as you are reading that after viewing his 14-year-old son’s footage from a pep rally at Buhach Colony High School. No other way to say it, really — the Principal performed an inappropriate dance on the mascot! In the video, which father Ryan Attebery shared to Facebook over the weekend, Principal Robert Nunes can be seen sitting in a chair while Thor, the school’s mascot, dances around him. Robert then switches positions with the mascot, and briefly performs what looks to be a suggestive dance. He then shouts into the microphone:

“What happens in Buhach stays in Buhach!”

Oh… Oh no…

Ryan, clearly unsettled by the footage, asked, “Am I a square or was this weird af for a principal to do?”

The vid quickly spread around the internet with many pointing out that if a student were to do something similar, they’d likely be suspended. And that’s what happened to the principal, too!

The Merced Union High School District confirmed to People on Wednesday that Nunes has since been placed on administrative leave. Spokesperson Viviana Fuentes said in a statement:

“This decision comes as part of our commitment to maintaining a safe and respectful environment. The District is conducting a comprehensive review of the situation. While the investigation is ongoing, Mr. Nunes will not be participating in any school-related responsibilities or activities.”

Yikes! And this was apparently the dude’s FIRST year there as principal! Not a great way to start…

While speaking with People, Ryan explained why he shared the video on FB:

“Hey, man, like, this is what your kids see. You guys have the right to see it. That’s all it was for me.”

However, he also said he was “shocked” to learn of the action being taken against the principal as many students have been “sticking up for him.” Ryan added:

“For all I know, he’s a great guy, but at the same time, it doesn’t make it any less weird.”

Students have since confirmed on social media that the pep rally was Vegas-themed. Ryan left off:

“Everybody’s saying he is [a good guy]. He probably is, and it’s probably just a bad joke. They’re like, ‘Oh, the students, that was all the students idea.’ And I’m like, ‘I know, but the fact that there wasn’t a red flag, is a red flag in itself.’ I’d rather just make sure these kids are cool. It was all weird, nonetheless.”

What are your thoughts here, Perezcious readers?? How bad was this? Just getting too into the bit with the kids? Or worse?? Sound OFF in the comments down below!

The post High School Principal Suspended After 'Weird' Lap Dance With School Mascot At Pep Rally! appeared first on Perez Hilton.

This is horrifying. Littleton Public Schools paraprofessional Kiarra Jones has been arrested after allegedly abusing three students with autism on their rides to and from school. WTF.

In a press release on Wednesday, the Rathod Mohamedbhai law firm claimed three students endured “extreme physical and mental abuse” over the last six months thanks to the 29-year-old aide, per ABC News. The students all went to The Joshua School, which is highly regarded for kids with autism, and they used a dedicated bus provided by the LPS transportation system. The school may be quality — but the bus was clearly not a safe space! Jones allegedly subjected the kids to “unfathomable abuse,” which they could not report because they were all non-verbal.

Parents (who are prepared to sue the school district) first noticed the kids arriving home with horrifying injuries in September, the law firm explained:

“[Parents] saw significant shifts in their child’s behavior and noticed physical injuries on their child, including unexplained scratches, bruises, a lost tooth, a broken toe, a black eye, and other deep bruises on their bodies and feet.”

Broken bones and missing teeth?!? JFC!

According to the firm, parents reached out to the school with concerns in January, and the faculty then looped in the school district. But apparently they failed to do a proper or lengthy investigation, causing the abuse to continue for many months. It came to a head on March 18 when Jones was caught on camera physically abusing a 10-year-old boy named Dax on the school bus — elbowing him in the stomach, slapping him in the face, and stomping on his feet. It’s this video that seemingly helped lead to the disgraced aide’s arrest. The clip was shared by Dax’s parents with CBS News Colorado this week in hopes of calling attention to the abuse.

The child’s father Devin (lower inset) told the outlet that “through lack of action, accountability, and frankly a lack of care, it has again been made abundantly clear how low my son’s needs are on the social totem pole, as far as the school system is concerned.” He added:

“They took my trust and spit on it.”

Because Dax is non-verbal, his facial expressions and body language are what speak for him — which is why his parents wanted an unedited recording of the abuse released to the public. The student’s mother Jess (top inset) explained:

“It was a heavy decision to make to uncover it, but we cannot bring attention to this if we don’t look at it. It’s ugly to look at, but it’s important to see how confused and afraid he was in that video. It just speaks to his vulnerability, and it speaks to the terror he had to endure while on that bus.”

She continued in tears:

“How could someone that I trusted, someone that I was so friendly with do this to my little boy? The torture and torment of my sweet boy could’ve been stopped.”

Jess was one of the mothers who noticed strange bumps and bruises on her son in the fall, which she contacted the school about (though they insisted the injuries did not occur while Dax was in their care). As issues continued, she brought her concerns to LPS but was told there was nothing to be worried about. But one day after notifying LPS, she was informed about the security footage by local police on March 19.

Slamming those involved, attorney Ed C. Hopkins from the Rathod Mohamedbhai law firm said:

“They had everything they needed to stop it faster and they didn’t. They had notice and they ignored it. These children have been traumatized and tortured because they failed them.”

In response, LPS said in a letter obtained by the outlet:

“This kind of behavior cannot be and is not tolerated. As parents, you trust us with the well-being of your children and you should never have to worry about them being harmed when they are in our care.”

In the letter, they claim Jones was hired in August 2023 — just one month before the injuries started to appear — “after satisfactory reference checks and after passing through a background check.” She was arrested (and fired, thank goodness) on April 4 on charges of crimes against at-risk juvenile – third-degree assault and crimes against at-risk juvenile – injury but was released the next day on a $5K bond. She will be back in court for a preliminary hearing on May 3.

Jeez. The poor students! Wishing them nothing but healing and safety moving forward! Thoughts? Share them in the comments (below).

Heather Hare is facing the law after admitting to some pretty heinous crimes with an underage student. According to a Monday release from the office of Jonathan D. Ross, US Attorney for the Eastern District of Arkansas, investigations revealed the 33-year-old had sex with a senior student “approximately 20 to 30 times throughout the 2021-2022 school term.”

WTF!

Related: Man Threated To Kill Minor & Her Family If She Didn’t Send Him Nudes!

According to the press release, Heather, who taught at Bryant High School in Bryant, Arkansas, met the student on the first day of school. Their relationship grew increasingly inappropriate during one-on-one counseling:

“Hare taught Family Consumer Science classes at Bryant High School and met the minor victim on his first day of his senior year. Hare began one-on-one counseling sessions with the minor victim, eventually giving him her personal phone number and primarily communicating with him through Instagram and Snapchat.”

She later revealed to him she had a dream of them having sex, and provided him with her home address. The two went on to engage in sexual activity at her “residence, in her vehicle, and in her classroom and parking lots” at the high school.

That is so messed up…

The release stated that between April 21 and 24 of 2022, Heather took a group of students, including her minor male victim, on a field trip to Washington, D.C., where they engaged in sexual activity — which she pleaded guilty to.

But get this… Back in 2020, Heather actually went viral after her students made her a farewell video after her class was shut down due to distance learning… She even appeared on Good Morning America because of it! Of course, GMA has since erased the video from all their platforms, as you can see HERE.

How messed up… Someone you think your kids can look up to, and then she abuses one in this way?? Disgusting. As Ross said in a statement:

“This former teacher took advantage of her position of trust and the vulnerability of a minor, using her role to entice and lure this minor into engaging in unlawful sexual activity. Our office will continue to seek significant penalties against any educational professional who sexually abuse their students.”

Hare was indicted in August, but has yet to be sentenced — though transportation of a minor to engage in unlawful sexual activity, for which she pleaded guilty, is punishable by no less than 10 years to life in prison, and no less than five years of supervised release, according to the statement.

That poor kid! We hope to see justice served. Reactions? Let us know down in the comments.

The 10-year-old went live on TikTok with her momma Kim Kardashian while watching the latest episode of the family’s show The Kardashians on Wednesday night. And she dropped the reveal she has dyslexia, a learning disability that can cause difficulty reading and writing. The topic came up when North passed her phone to Kim for help typing something, saying to the camera:

“Guys, I have dyslexia. Do you even know what that is?”

Kim then teased, “You are sure spilling the tea!”

This only encouraged Kanye West’s eldest to drop more secrets, such as hinting that she’s working on music. OMG?!? North continued:

“Should I drop an album?”

WHAT?!

Is she about to follow in her dad’s footsteps? She wouldn’t be the first one to do it. Maybe her new step-cousin Alabama Barker is giving her some tips?? (Or, you know, her dad!)

We’ll have to wait to see if there’s any truth to it. The SKIMS founder was quick to shut the conversation down, saying sweetly:

“North, I’m gonna get off this live right now because you just are really saying way too much. I love you, but… You know, I purposely don’t talk about stuff you’re going through.”

Aw! Such a good momma for protecting her kids, but if North wants to be an open book, there’s only so much she can do to stop her from talking! Right? One fan addressed this in the comments, joking:

“Imagine being Kim… constantly on the edge, North might be the one to really spill the family tea!”

Just a matter of time. LOLz! Ch-ch-check it out (below):

Teen Mom fans were, tragically, not too surprised to learn Jace had run away earlier this month. After all it was the third time in the past couple months. The alleged reason we finally learned was shocking and upsetting. Jenelle’s mom Barbara claimed the 14-year-old told her he’d been “hiding” from his stepdad David Eason, who had physically abused him. Investigators reportedly saw evidence, too — “visible marks on his neck and arm.”

We’d assumed Child Protective Services stepped in this time because multiple runaway attempts is a red flag — makes sense considering the new abuse allegations. But there was another detail, too.

Sources told The US Sun on Thursday that Jace had also STOPPED GOING TO SCHOOL! One insider claimed:

“Jace hasn’t been in school since August. While he was with Jenelle, he would be home alone all day.”

Apparently ever since his first runaway attempt, he just never started going again. And his parents didn’t even try to make him? WTF?! No wonder CPS is concerned!

A second source pointed out Jenelle’s 9-year-old son Kaiser Griffith is having school trouble as well!

“Kaiser was suspended from school for a week recently. He’s in third grade. It’s not normal at all. The kids are acting out and it’s a total cry for help.”

We guess Kaiser’s dad Nathan Griffith and his family were right to be worried. But what else will CPS discover in this investigation? The source says:

“Everyone is sitting tight and hoping more will be revealed since Jace was removed.”

For now Jace is with his grandma Barbara, much to the annoyance of Jenelle. But frankly any distance these kids can get from David Eason makes us sleep a little better at night. We don’t need to go through it all again, but the man seems like a total monster.

To hear these parents were letting their kid run wild, not going to school for two months?? That insider is right, y’all, that’s a red flag. And do NOT even suggest this is a homeschooling situation because David Eason is about the last person that should be teaching a child.

What do YOU think of this latest development in Jace’s case? Should he just stay with Barbara for good? What about the rest of the kids??

On Tuesday’s episode of the Unlocked podcast, Savannah Chrisley gave fans an update on her parents’ prison stays — and we have to say, we didn’t see this one coming! According to the couple’s daughter, the reality stars have been teaching classes in prison in order to get sentence reductions. Julie Chrisley has been reportedly been teaching a real estate class, while the patriarch’s class of choice was… finance?!

The 28 year old dished:

“I know [Julie] definitely taught classes like she taught a real estate class she — she’s definitely taught classes. I mean she’s got all these certificates from like teaching and completing classes all these things. An overachiever, Julie’s always been … Dad’s definitely taught some classes too, trauma is one of them … I think another one was a financial class.”

She also went on to add that the Chrisley matriarch has even been asked to lead a financial group herself:

“How ironic.”

Well, we’re glad Savannah said so! Because this is definitely some major irony! Todd and Julie are in prison for financial crimes — so what exactly are they telling their students?? What NOT to do? How NOT to dodge taxes like they did? We hope?? LOLz!

During an interview on the BBC Three for the BBC World Service’s online series, In Conversation, the singer revealed a shocking reality that she says informed her 2022 album, Hold the Girl: she was “groomed” as a teenager. She opened up:

“This is the first time I’m talking about this, but essentially, through doing sex therapy — sex and relationship therapy — I realized that really something that I thought was a relationship that I had, when I was 17, was actually I was groomed.”

Ugh, this poor woman… Even more shocking? Her groomer was a TEACHER at her school:

“It came to light that, that was what was happening in my school, basically, it was a school teacher.”

WTF.

As for why she’s opening up about it now, well, the 33-year-old sort of just recently came to the realization. The Eye for an Eye singer explained:

“Why that realization happened in my 30s was because I was finally his age.”

Gross… Her groomer was well over a decade older than her. And finally hitting that age made her realize just how young 17-year-olds really were…

“Seventeen to me is a child, you’re in school, you have no autonomy most of the time, and especially if you’re in a school setting, if a school teacher is coming on to you, that’s an abuse of power. I didn’t realize that until I was his age.”

Rina said the breakthrough in therapy led to two tracks in particular off her record: Your Age and Hold the Girl. She reflected:

“I remember distinctly how uncomfortable that made me, but I didn’t put the two and two together. And it was through this very intense form of therapy, which I feel so lucky to be able to have access to, that I was able to come to terms with that, and it completely broke my whole world apart.”

The John Wick: Chapter 4 star explained that following the revelation of what had happened at her school, SHE somehow became the target:

“I was so badly slut-shamed, that I developed so much shame around my sexuality, and lost completely my sense of self, I detached from my skin like inside, I don’t know how to describe it. But I just felt so afraid of things. And I’d have anxiety attacks.”

How completely awful, but sadly an all too common phenomenon known as victim shaming. However, working through the trauma and pouring it into her music proved to be an “incredible” thing for the Japanese-British artist. She explained:

“Writing that album was one of the hardest things, but also when I finished it, it was one of the most incredible experiences. And now it makes me so happy when I see especially like women or femmes in the audience connecting to it because I haven’t talked about this in specifics. I’ve just said it’s about a period in my life when I was younger, but I know the truth and when I look out to the audience, and I see femmes or women connecting to it, I’m like maybe you know what I’m talking about, maybe you’re feeling it right now.”

What an inspiration. We’re so happy she was able to get to such a powerful place. As for what’s up next, Rina doesn’t plan on revisiting anymore trauma on her next album:

“I don’t know what I’m gonna write about yet. But I would love a day where I can just write a song that’s just about love or sex, I’m getting there.”

She has our full support. What are your thoughts, Perezcious readers?? Let us know in the comments down below.

It didn’t take a large leap to connect that interest to the murders. After all, the killings — as far as investigators can tell — were not driven by the usual motives. Kohberger was a stranger to the four students. Hell, he didn’t even go to the same school. The brutal slayings of Maddie Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin seem, like serial killings, to be more about the killer than the victim. Was the study of criminology because he always wanted to do this? To help him try to get away with it? Or just to be close to these kinds of cases?

It’s chilling to think about, right?

Relate: Kohberger’s Team Found Way To Delay Trial — Victim’s Family Devastated!

Well, Kohberger’s interest in crime and law enforcement apparently goes WAY back. It turns out he actually got into a program during his high school years which, if it had gone differently, would have resulted in him becoming a cop! *shudder*

Former Monroe Career and Technical Institute administrator Tanya Carmella-Beers revealed Kohberger’s aspirations on the most recent episode of a podcast called The Idaho Massacre. She said she couldn’t say too much because of student privacy laws, but she felt comfortable saying the accused murderer did not get close to becoming an actual cop as part of the “protective services program”:

“It wasn’t gonna be an ending up in the police academy kind of thing for him. It was gonna be a little bit more of a challenge for him to get there.”

Speaking about the strange juxtaposition of law enforcement and committing such a crime, Tanya teased that it oddly “makes sense” to her:

“Ultimately what had him removed from the program, when I look back on it now, makes sense… the fact that he wanted law enforcement more than anything else in the world, if you look at it from just that perspective alone not knowing what I know… you’d be like, I’m so shocked. In that respect I am, but I know another little piece, which is the piece that occurred at the school… so that makes sense.”

Tanya explained that students were held to a very high moral standard, and anything that might get a real police officer fired would also mean removal from the program — and there was an incident.

“A complaint was made, and the teacher reported it to me, and said, ‘You know, this is not something we can have.'”

A complaint? Yep — by a group of female students. If you’ve followed Kohberger’s case you know that’s a recurring theme for him. He also had complaints from women as a grad student — leading him to be fired as a TA just before his arrest. Carmella-Beers continued:

“An investigation needed to be conducted. Other students were interviewed. Bryan was interviewed. And there comes a time when decisions have to be made, whether it’s the decision the student wants or not… I don’t think that maybe he necessarily grasped the depth and breadth of the issue at hand.”

She couldn’t go into too much detail, but whatever it was the girls were upset about caused Kohberger to be cut from the program. He studied air conditioning repair instead.

Innerestingly, Fox News reports that Kohberger used the protective services course on his resume when applying for a security guard job at nearby Mount Pleasant High School in Delaware — not mentioning, of course, getting kicked out.
