FOX 24 US Looks like Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos’ kids may not be getting a visit from Santa this year.  The couple—who are parents to Michael, 28, Lola, 24, and Joaquin, 22—recently debated whether they would get their three kids Christmas gifts during the upcoming holiday season.   “Kids are old now,” Mark said during the Nov. 20 episode of Live With Kelly and Mark. “I’m not getting them anything.” However, Kelly, 55, was taken aback at the admission, asking her husband, “You’re not getting them anything?” In response, the Riverdale alum initially stood his ground with his wife of 29 years.  “They get money,” Mark added. “Give them like a check or something and say, ‘Merry Christmas!’…

FOX 24 US Federal prosecutors are beating a broad retreat from cases they had brought against people protesting the surge of CBP and ICE agents into Chicago. It is a stunning comedown. Prosecutors moved to abandon on Thursday three cases brought against protestors, two of which DHS described as being brought against “domestic terrorists” as part of a national media campaign to portray the situation in Chicago as demanding a military deployment. Now, the cases have come to nothing amid increasing scrutiny from the courts. In the case of Marimar Martinez, the 30-year old Chicagoan shot five times in October…

FOX 24 US While Andy was shocked, Whitney and Mark knew they’d be two-stepping out of the competition.  “We knew, we felt it,” the pro dancer told E! News’ Will Marfuggi after the semi-finals. “I think we just had a feeling.” Echoed Whitney, “We had a gut feeling it was us.” But that doesn’t mean it hurts any less.   “You build long-lasting friendships here with production, crew—obviously with Mark,” she told E!. “You spend so much time with these people every single day, so it does feel like a breakup. It’s like, I’m sad, but also I’m leaving with just a…

FOX 24 US How They Pick the CastawaysTens of thousands of people apply to be on the show, and ultimately, the casting producers will mix a bunch of Survivor aficionados with people, who usually end up being models or actors, they recruit. Still, those recruited players must go through the full casting process. “Believe it or not we receive many applications from the same people year after year,” former casting director Lynne Spillman, who had been with the show from the beginning until 2018, told Reality Wanted. Now, host Jeff Probst is handling casting.  “Typically, it goes like this,” he…

FOX 24 US When Secretary of State Marco Rubio added four European anti-fascist groups to the list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations last week, he failed to tell the public one thing: how, exactly, these groups threaten Americans. It’s a critical omission. Under the Immigration and Nationality Act, the Secretary of State can only label a group as a Foreign Terrorist Organization — a powerful tool that blocks access to the U.S. financial system and makes it a felony to provide support — if three criteria are met. First, the group must be foreign. That’s straightforward: of the four “violent Antifa” groups Rubio…

FOX 24 US And now, nearly a decade after the allegations first surfaced, Spacey—who, most recently, performed a variety show in Greece Nov. 15—said he’s hoping to return to Hollywood. “We are in touch with some extremely powerful people who want to put me back to work,” he told The Telegraph. “And that will happen in its right time. But I will also say what I think the industry seems to be waiting for is to be given permission—by someone who is in some position of enormous respect and authority.” Nonetheless, Spacey has taken his downfall as a learning lesson.…

FOX 24 US Paige DeSorbo is no stranger to hair removal.  The In Bed with Paige host told E!, “I started getting laser when I was in the 8th grade, when it first came out. But as the years go on, the technology just gets better and better.” Case in point: Braun’s IPL laser hair removal device, Paige’s at-home secret for hair removal — and the best part? We found it on sale for Black Friday. “I have tried tons of other forms of hair removal and I don’t have a high pain tolerance. I know that beauty sometimes is…

FOX 24 US Thanks to a 2009 medical breakthrough, researchers could be on the precipice of answering one reason why Black Americans are disproportionately diagnosed with kidney failure, and offering a solution to the issue. That discovery, doctors and researchers told TPM, may not have been possible without decades of analysis of federal race and ethnicity figures collected on every American citizen diagnosed with kidney failure. Now, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, have ceased collecting that information — data swept away  in President Donald Trump’s purge of so-called diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. Dialysis is the…

FOX 24 US And, yes, the Social Network alum and Home Alone star are ready for their kids to get lost in New York.  “They’ve never been to New York before, so, really excited to show the boys the big city, especially during the holiday season,” she explained. “Rockefeller Center! Like, just see the tree, obviously. It’s just so special.” Brenda is convinced her kids will love it more than a lovely cheese pizza all to themselves.  “We try to explain it to them that it’s like the biggest tree, the biggest Christmas tree you’ll ever see, and I don’t…
