This is getting out of hand.

As you no doubt know, there has been a trend recently of performers getting pelted with objects while on stage over the past few weeks. Last month, Bebe Rexha was hit in the eye with a cell phone and got a massive shiner during her show in New York City. The person who threw the device was arrested and admitted he thought it “would be funny.” There’s absolutely nothing funny about throwing an item at someone and injuring them. Then, someone stormed the stage and slapped Ava Max during a show. Kelsea Ballerini was also hit in the eye with a bracelet. Awful. Sadly, so many others have joined the list of celebs getting objects hurled at them during a concert! And now, Harry Styles is the latest victim of this terrible trend.

During his concert in Vienna on Saturday night, the 29-year-old singer was walking across the stage in between songs when suddenly an unknown object hit him directly in his left eye. Ouch! Videos captured by fans of the incident showed Harry visibly in pain, as he winced, covered his face with his hands, and doubled over. However, the As It Was artist seemed to push through it and continued to walk off-stage. You can see the moment (below):

Ugh. Stop throwing things on stage! It’s super dangerous, and no artist deserves to be treated this way. And we’re not the only ones sick of this trend!

Following the incident with Harry, people have taken to social media to say enough is enough already with throwing objects at celebrities on stage. And many pointed out that if this trend continues, they fear the way everyone gets to experience concerts will change or phones will be banned moving forward. See the reactions (below):

“Why do people keep doing this, paying money for front row just to do this too. I’m tired of y’all.”

“This object throwing culture is about to kill how we experience concerts & festivals moving forward. They’re about to get more expensive and more exclusive.”

“I genuinely don’t understand like I get throwing stuff on the stage where they’ll see it but they always aim for the face like why???”

“The fact that this seems like a ‘trend’ now is infuriating. Y’all are gunna take away live music from the people who actually care about the performers well being.”

“people need to stop throwing things and respect artists, like it’s getting tiring”

“this is happening so often they are eventually going to ban you from taking anything inside or ban concerts in general”

“I had my recording on when something hit harry today in the eyes. This is disgusting and disrespectful, i really hope he‘s ok #LoveOnTourVienna #HSLOT #vienna #harrystyles

“y’all not going to be f**king with Harry styles now…y’all losing your damn minds!!! WTH is the world coming to where entertainers being assaulted….trying to entertain people….you buy tickets to assault stars? Like is this a new era of crazy……!!!! People are really losing there minds. Stars are going to stop doing concerts because people are really CRAZY out here!”

As we said before, this needs to stop already. Reactions to the latest incident, Perezcious readers? Let us know in the comments below.

[Warning: Potentially Triggering Content]

An ex-girlfriend of Jonah Hill has come forward about the emotional abuse she suffered throughout their relationship.

Sarah Brady took to Instagram Stories on Friday to open up about her romance with the 39-year-old actor, and she did not hold back, accusing him of being a “narcissist,” “misogynist,” and all-around toxic partner. And the 25-year-old brought out the receipts to back up her claims!

The drama started on Thursday when Sarah dropped a black-and-white photo of herself, along with the caption that said she was “reviving a pic I took down by request of a misogynist narcissist.” She didn’t name who this “misogynist narcissist” person was at the time. However, the surfer later revealed their identity when she liked a comment that read:

“I just want to say… that the type of man Jonah is, some of us think we can ‘save’ them in the sense that we can show them how worthy of love they are and outdo all of the trauma and harm in their life that caused them to be so insecure.”

Naturally, many determined that she was referring to Jonah as the ex who made her take this picture down. Instead of leaving it at that, Sarah decided to tell her story. She went on to drop a bunch of text message exchanges with Jonah from 2021 on the IG Stories, a lot of which showed how he was often upset about her posting pictures of herself on social media in a bathing suit or hanging out with male friends. She first wrote:

“This is a warning to all girls. If your partner is talking to you like this, make an exit plan. Call me if you need an ear.”

In the texts, Jonah allegedly asked her to remove any surfing photos from her social media that featured her “a** in a thong” — even though she wasn’t wearing one. After she deleted “all the posts,” he told her it was a “good start” but she still doesn’t “seem to get” the point, adding:

“But it’s not my place to teach you. I’ve made my boundaries clear. “You refuse to let go of some of them and you’ve made that clear and I hope it makes you happy.”

You can see it (below):

(c) Sarah Brady/Instagram

Sarah went on to share another alleged text message from Jonah, in which he told her she lacked “boundaries.” He even told her that if she chose to surf “with men,” “to model,” “to post pictures of yourself in a bathing suit,” “to post sexual pictures,” and “have friendships with women who are in unstable places and from your wild recent past,” then he was not the right boyfriend for her. Seriously?! That is messed up. See the receipt (below):

(c) Sarah Brady/Instagram

Interestingly enough, Sarah shared that he used to send her flirty comments on her surf pictures – before they became an item. However, that all changed once their relationship started in 2021, and he started to make these kinds of comments, which says were in an effort to manipulate her. See (below):

Jonah Hill’s Ex-Girlfriend Accuses Him Of Being “Emotionally Abusive” & A “Misogynist” – See Her Text Receipts!
(c) Sarah Brady/Instagram

Why did she comply with his requests? Sarah explained that she did so in an attempt to “protect” him from “crippling anxiety.” She also noted that she often “took blame” for him and his actions.

And as for why she’s sharing this now? Sarah explained that she dropped these messages “because keeping it to myself was causing more damage to my mental health than sharing it could ever do.” She also pointed out that “someone being an emotionally abusive partner doesn’t mean they’re a terrible person” and that it “often stems from their own trauma.” But Sarah also noted that “at the same time, it doesn’t mean it’s OK.”

The digs from Sarah didn’t end there. She added in another slide she hoped Jonah had a daughter with his current partner Olivia Millar so that perhaps he’ll actually turn into a “feminist”:

“I hope my ex has a daughter, maybe she’ll turn him into a real feminist. Because the fact that he calls himself a feminist now is laughable. … If I could have one wish for him it would be that he is surrounded by feminist men who can hold him accountable to grow in the ways he has expressed he wants to. I think fame can put people in an echo chamber of viewpoints, which can enable emotionally abusive behavior.

There was a lot posted on her Instagram! But basically, she detailed how controlling and manipulative Jonah allegedly had been during their entire relationship. You can more of the receipts from Sarah (below):

Candace Cameron Bure is coming under fire (yet again!) for claims she tried to get the first queer character “removed” from Fuller House!

Actress Miss Benny brought the unfortunate news to TikTok‘s attention in a new video on Thursday in which she broke down what it was really like to step foot on the set of the Full House reboot. The 24-year-old had the honor of playing the spin-off’s first gay character, Casey, but she was quickly informed her role was at risk!

Related: Fans Think Kyle Richards Is Having An Affair With Singer Morgan Wade?!?

According to Miss Benny, “one of the Tanner sisters” who is “very publicly not for the girls” was not pleased with the addition of a queer character in two episodes of season 4. Because the star’s feelings about the LGBTQ+ community were so widely known by everyone working on the production, the higher-ups sat down with the guest star to warn her about what to expect! The performer, who came out as transgender in June, revealed:

“I remember I got sat down by the writers and the studio to basically warn me how this person allegedly was trying to get the character removed and not have a queer character on the show.”

WTF!

The actress claimed she was “warned and prepared” that this person’s fan base might also be “encouraged to target” her. While the protests to get the character erased from the comedy didn’t work, it doesn’t mean the leading lady was very welcoming to the Glamorous lead, Miss Benny claimed:

“To this day, despite working on the show every day for two weeks straight, I have only had a conversation with one of the Tanner sisters.”

Now, obviously, there were only two Tanner sisters to chat with on set because the youngest, Michelle, played by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, was not a part of the Netflix series. And given what we all know about Candace and Jodie Sweetin, it seems obvious the latter was the only friendly one. Jeez.

Related: Will Smith ‘Refused’ RuPaul Cameo On The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air

Again, while Miss Benny’s post never called out Candace by name, the star did include the caption, “#candacebure,” so there’s really no mistaking who she was putting on blast. You can hear her full reflection (below):

@ihatemissbenny

Replying to @Teddy Bear queue some nervous fidgeting. #fullerhouse #greenscreen #candacebure

♬ original sound – Miss Benny

As to be expected, the Christmas Under Wraps lead wasted no time clapping back. Denying all the claims, she said in a statement to People on Thursday night:

“I never asked Miss Benny’s character to be removed from Fuller House and did not ask the writers, producers or studio executives to not have queer characters on the show. Fuller House has always welcomed a wide range of characters. I thought Miss Benny did a great job as ‘Casey’ on the show. We didn’t share any scenes together, so we didn’t get a chance to talk much while filming on set. I wish Miss Benny only the best.”

Hmmm…

Her word choice at the end is def inneresting. Saying they didn’t have the opportunity to “talk much” seems to suggest they did interact — but if we’re going off what Miss Benny said then that’s a lie!

Of course, these allegations come after Candace was already dubbed the “rudest celebrity” JoJo Siwa‘s ever met. Last year, the Aurora Teagarden Mysteries star also made waves when she promoted her new partnership with the Hallmark rival Great American Family, saying:

“I think that Great American Family will keep traditional marriage at the core.”

The 47-year-old’s apparent bigotry was criticized by many stars, including the Dance Moms alum who was shocked she so openly gushed about her “intention of excluding LGBTQIA+” people in her new projects. Jodie was spotted supporting the former Nickelodeon star, who identifies as queer and pansexual, writing, “You know I love you.” Jodie also unfollowed Candace at the time. So, considering all of this, we’re sad (but not shocked) to hear these latest claims. What do you make of them, Perezcious readers?! Whose side of the story do you believe?! Sound OFF (below)!

Jackie Chan is not winning father of the year anytime soon if people on the internet have anything to say about it!

Earlier this week, an emotional video of the 69-year-old actor tearfully watching his old stunts alongside a woman many thought was his daughter went viral. It’s a super touching moment between a father and daughter. But here’s the thing… This clip? It’s really a scene from a movie!

When the video circulated on social media, many mistakenly believed that it was Jackie looking back on his career with his real-life child. However, the girl in the clip is not his daughter, she’s an actress named Liu Haocun. The scene is actually from one of his recent movies called Ride On, in which he portrayed a former stuntman. They used Jackie’s real-life reel as the character’s — perfect to watch wistfully with his onscreen kid. The blend of reality and fiction was so well done it managed to fool everyone on the internet into thinking he had such a beautiful bond with his daughter.

Related: Will Smith ‘Refused’ RuPaul Cameo On Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air To Protect His Image?!

In actuality, though, Jackie doesn’t have a great relationship with his real daughter Etta Ng Chok Lam. In fact, they don’t have one at all! For those who don’t know, the Rush Hour star had an affair in 1999 with former pageant queen Elaine Ng Yi-lei — while he was still married to his wife Joan Lin. Elaine ended up getting pregnant with Etta.

But Jackie has been estranged from the child for years! And things haven’t improved between them lately…

In 2018, Etta accused her “homophobic parents” (including Jackie) of abandoning her and refusing to help her out after falling on hard times and ending up homeless with her now-wife Andi Autumn. Why? She claims it’s because she’s a lesbian. So, so awful. You can hear what Etta had to say (below):

So when the video from Jackie’s film went viral on Twitter, those in the know were quick to fact-check the internet — and drag him for his treatment of his IRL kid. Even Twitter’s community notes were added to the viral clip to provide more context about the situation. See a few of the reactions (below):

“Finding out Jackie Chan disowned his OWN daughter because she was gay & she been living on the streets homeless ever since while his net worth is 400m was not on my 2023 bingo card…”

“Google exists. That’s not his daughter. He disowned his actual daughter for being gay.”

“Jackie Chan being homophobic is a major L”

“Probably one of the most gut punch community notes…”

At this time, Jackie hasn’t responded to Etta’s previous accusations or the recent online controversy. But considering he remained silent back in 2018, we doubt he’ll have anything to say about the matter now. You can see the original clip that started the recent drama (below):

The accusations against Colleen Ballinger are mounting.

As you know, the 36-year-old YouTuber, known for her character Miranda Sings, has been under fire lately after allegations of grooming young fans, racism, and more have come out. Things are not looking good for her, especially as yet another person has come forward with their horrific experience with Colleen when they were just a minor. Someone named Grant took to TikTok on Tuesday after realizing he was a “Miranda Sings victim.” The social media user recalled how he went to one of her shows when he was 15 years old and was called up on stage to perform a skit with Colleen on “what to do on a first date.”

Related: Video Of Colleen Performing In Blackface Surfaces

Grant included a video of their onstage bit, which showed Colleen inappropriately flirting with the teen. She also put a bag of Cheetos down her pants, and had him grab some at one point. So, so wrong. And that’s not all. Colleen then had him kiss her on the cheek and called him “attractive.” Yeah, she did this with a 15-year-old. Looking back, Grant definitely realized how “inappropriate” the moment was:

“Looking back, I don’t have any negative feelings toward it. I was very much in on it and loved the attention. But I would never – if I was in her position – I would never call a minor up onstage and say and do some of the stuff that she did. Never. I’m glad that in my brain then I was confident enough to know that this is a bit, we’re just acting, we’re entertaining people. But still, that is so inappropriate. She even says she’s not a pedophile, crazy.”

It’s very messed up. You can see the entire video (below):

@grantegibbs

So strange looking back but wanted to share! This is a video that someone posted on YouTube of my interaction on stage at one of her shows. This happened my freshman year of high school lol ????✋Some parts definitely made me feel uncomfy, but I never looked back at this experience as anything traumatizing. Just interesting to watch now considering all of the other things coming out.. #mirandasings #colleenballinger

One of the biggest questions on everyone’s minds right now: How did Colleen Ballinger get away with so much for so long, especially given all of the accusations that have come out and videos of her skits that have resurfaced?!

So remember the song called Gangnam Style by PSY that became a massive hit in 2012? Well, Colleen, dressed as her character Miranda Sings, made a music video on YouTube for the song in 2013 – and it is just roughly two minutes of blatant racism. No joke. It’s really, really bad.

And now, the music video of has resurfaced in light of her grooming scandal, and people on social media called her out for her problematic video of her mocking the song. You can see it for yourself below:

@ellenacuario

I am speechless #mirandasingsgangnamstyle

♬ original sound – Your Funny Unni

Wow…

No words. The fact that not only did Colleen think it was OK to make this blatantly racist video, but she still has it up ten years later… Our jaws are on the floor.

As we mentioned before, this is just the latest racism allegation and offensive video to resurface amid her scandal. She has been at the center of controversy, as former fans have accused her of grooming, encouraging bullying, and discussing sexual topics with minors. Colleen also has been accused of being racist on the set of her Netflix show Haters Back Off. There’s also a video circulating of her performing in what appears to be blackface. After everything that’s come out, there’s definitely no performing another ukulele number to get her out of this mess.

UPDATE 7/6/23 12:20 P.M. PST:

Colleen Ballinger is clapping back! On Thursday, the internet personality’s legal reps denied claims she was dressed “in blackface” during a resurfaced performance of Single Ladies in a statement to Variety. In the viral video, it appeared she had dark-colored paint on her face – and she did, per her legal team at the law firm Berk Brettler, but it wasn’t what it seemed.

They claim just before belting Single Ladies in 2009, Colleen took the stage with Oliver Tompsett to sing As Long As You’re Mine from Wicked. In honor of the musical, she painted her face green like Elphaba. She kept this same paint on as she immediately transitioned into performing Beyoncé’s song, which she always ended her shows with at the time because it was one of her most popular bits. To prove all of this, they even released an extended recording of the controversial show — which now includes the Wicked performance. You can see it HERE.

__________

How’s Colleen Ballinger gonna sing this trouble away…

Amid allegations of racism and grooming young fans, the Miranda Sings star on YouTube is now coming under fire for seemingly wearing blackface in a resurfaced video. In a new clip circulating online, the comedian can be seen performing Beyoncé‘s hit Single Ladies with two others on stage. They all wear black bodysuits, but it’s just Colleen whose face is painted black.

The original video was actually posted on Miranda Sings’ official YT page in February 2018. It is only viewable thanks to a link released in her book, My Diarrhe, which may be why it didn’t generate a ton of backlash until now. It appears she gave the inappropriate AF performance during one of her comedy shows at the time.

You can see the newly viral video (below):

And here’s the full thing if you’re interested:

Just… wow.

This is never a good look, but it is made even more problematic knowing the string of other gross and disturbing allegations levied against the star in recent weeks. If you’ve been following this scandal, you’ll know this all began when a former fan, Adam McIntyre, called Colleen out for allegedly grooming young viewers, encouraging bullying, and asking minors about their sex lives, among other things. The 36-year-old clapped back by releasing a 10-minute video in which she addressed the claims via a cringe-worthy and tone-deaf ukulele song — no apology in sight!

Her former friend and collaborator, Trisha Paytas, then publicly blasted her while revealing Colleen used to share explicit photos of her with fans and hold viewing parties to mock her body. And this happened somewhat recently as she noted the influencer was “well into their 30s who just gave birth.” JFC. Also, April Korto Quioh, a former assistant to the writers and showrunner for Haters Back Off, the content creator’s two-season show with Netflix, spoke out. In a scathing blog post titled You Owe Me An Apology, April slammed the internet personality for alleged racism and inappropriate behavior on set.

For example, the assistant claimed Colleen allegedly insisted the show have limited background actors of color since the series took place in Washington and she thought it’d be “distracting” to have them around. She also demanded an Asian food market be “re-dressed as a bodega for the show and watched her disgust as she demanded assurance that all the ‘Asian s**t’ would be removed before filming.” WTF.

When addressing why all the leads of the show were white, April noted:

“I sat patiently as the Powers That Be expressed concern that the entire main cast for the show was white and silently prayed that since someone with some actual say had spoken up, things might change. And I took note, yet again, as Colleen assured them that they had only casted the best person for each role and that it wasn’t her fault that all of those people ended up being white.”

It gets worse, too. April included alleged screenshots of texts she sent a friend about the aforementioned audition process. In them, April recalls Colleen allegedly yelling out “Where is he” — “implying he is so dark skinned he disappeared.” She continued:

“I recall overhearing her once brag that a creator was being ‘cancelled’ for saying the n-word (and if you think she went with ‘n-word’ instead of hitting that hard ‘r’ then you haven’t been paying attention) and that she would never be stupid enough to get caught doing something like that.”

And now she’s seen performing in what appears to be blackface. Yikes. She better not address this with a freaking ukulele remix because these very serious accusations deserve an equally serious response! Reactions, Perezcious readers?

Allison Mack is a free woman — unlike the scores of women she tricked into joining NXIVM.

Back in June 2021, the Smallville alum was sentenced to three years in prison after pleading guilty to her role in the sex cult. She admitted to recruiting and blackmailing women into becoming sex slaves for cult leader Keith Raniere. But she was more than just a recruiter; she had been one of the highest-ranking members — high up enough that the brand women were forced to get had both his AND her initials.

But instead of serving her full prison sentence, Allison has left early. The Federal Bureau of Prisons website revealed that the former TV star was released from the Federal Correctional Institution in Dublin, California, on Monday after only serving two years behind bars. Seriously?!! After everything she did to those victims?

She co-founded the damn cult, so three years was already a real slap on the wrist. Remember, her partner Keith got 120 years! So for her to not even have to serve the whole thing on an already light sentence… it just boggles the mind, frankly.

As for why she was released early? The Federal Bureau of Prisons told People in a statement on Wednesday that she was let go due to the First Step Act release. The act, signed into law by president Donald Trump, allows federal inmates to acquire up to 54 days of “good conduct” credit each year of their imprisonment. The agency also noted that inmates can be released up to 12 months early if they complete the Residential Drug Abuse Program or due to a court order because of old age, medical conditions, or clemency.

We’re not sure what if any of these exceptions the now 40-year-old qualifies for. And in two years she could only have acquired 108 days of “good conduct” credit, not a whole year off. So really we still have no idea why she’s out so early.

Considering how much everyone was upset when Allison only received three years in prison, this news will no doubt have everyone further enraged now. Reactions to the latest in Allison’s case, Perezcious readers? Do you think she should have been released early? Sound OFF in the comments below.

Matty Healy seemingly addressed his many controversies over the weekend — but he didn’t exactly apologize!

While taking the stage with his band The 1975 during a headlining gig at Finsbury Park in London on Sunday, Matty decided to take a moment and get real with his fans. Without mentioning what exactly he was referring to, he opened up about how sometimes his actions and words don’t always land the way he intended. With the faintest hint of an apology (if you can even call it that…) at the very beginning of his statement, he told the crowd:

“I was always trying stuff and some stuff I got right and some stuff I got wrong. But you know what, there’s a lot of things that I’ve said, jokes that I’ve made, that I would take back. You know what, there’s probably a couple of f**king songs that I’d take back if I had the choice.”

Inneresting!

He went on to insist all he ever wanted to do is give his fans a good time, noting:

“What I mean is that I really am only doing this because I want to make you guys laugh and feel good. That’s what my favourite art does and that’s what I’m trying to do.”

The 34-year-old then mentioned Love Me, the lead single off the band’s second album, I Like It When You Sleep for You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware of It, joking that “it doesn’t make sense unless I’m taking the piss out of myself.” Healy continued:

“I’m not a nonchalant person. I’m not somebody who takes things for granted, so I was excited. The 1975 isn’t a dry band — there’s a lot of irony in it.”

All in all, he’s happy with what he’s done, Matty concluded:

“I get a bit excited, and you know what, I’m f**king proud of myself.”

As we said, it’s not really an apology, but it shows that all this backlash has been weighing on him. As we covered, amid his short-lived relationship with Taylor Swift, fans called him out for racism and inappropriate behavior.

One of the most damning bits of resurfaced content was an appearance on The Adam Friedland Show in February. During the podcast interview, he mentioned Ice Spice, and the two hosts went on to call her an “Inuit Spice Girl” while using Chinese and Hawaiian accents. Matty didn’t chime in at that point, but he could be heard laughing along. Later, in the same conversation, he also revealed he gets off to extreme porn of women of color being “brutalized.” And this is just a small list of the kinds of things he was getting blasted for.

Amid all this controversy, the frontman sat down with The New Yorker and straight-up refused to apologize, arguing:

“It doesn’t actually matter. Nobody is sitting there at night slumped at their computer, and their boyfriend comes over and goes, ‘What’s wrong, darling?’ and they go, ‘It’s just this thing with Matty Healy.’ That doesn’t happen.”

He continued:

“If it does, you’re either deluded or you are, sorry, a liar. You’re either lying that you are hurt, or you’re a bit mental for being hurt. It’s just people going, ‘Oh, there’s a bad thing over there, let me get as close to it as possible so you can see how good I am.’ And I kind of want them to do that, because they’re demonstrating something so base level.”

Interestingly, he made an exception and did apologize to Ice Spice during a concert in April, saying onstage that he “never meant to hurt anybody,” elaborating:

“Sorry if I’ve offended you. Ice Spice, I’m sorry. It’s not because I’m annoyed that me joking got misconstrued, it’s ’cause I don’t want Ice Spice to think that I’m a d**k. I love you Ice Spice…. It’s OK for me to be like, a trickster or whatever, but I don’t want to be perceived as mean-hearted.”

Noting that he was “genuinely sorry,” he added:

“We all get it wrong, and I just have to do it in public and then apologize.”

Sounds like he knows he messed up to some degree, but he’s not going to oblige fans with an apology every time his larger-than-life persona gets him in trouble. Thoughts?! Do U think this was an appropriate comment or does he owe haters a more direct apology? Let us know (below)!

Suspicious White Substance Found In White House Over The Weekend Confirmed To Be COCAINE?! https://perezhilton.com/white-house-white-substance-cocaine-details/ Tue, 04 Jul 2023 19:19:53 +0000 https://perezhilton.com/?p=1005320 Back on Sunday, the White House in Washington, DC was briefly evacuated after a suspicious white powder was found in one area of the hallowed presidential home.

Back on Sunday, the White House in Washington, DC was briefly evacuated after a suspicious white powder was found in one area of the hallowed presidential home.

And now, after Secret Service agents and federal investigators hurriedly tested the substance to determine what it was, they have made their reveal: it was cocaine.

WTF??

Obviously, the evacuation itself was scary enough. On Sunday evening, visitors and staffers alike were briefly ushered out of Joe Biden‘s presidential home after a suspicious white substance was found on the grounds. The DC Fire Department was called, along with EMS and a Hazmat team from the district’s official government body.

At the time of the incident, a Secret Service spokesperson said this to Fox News Digital:

“US Secret Service Uniform Division Officers located an unknown item on the White House complex. As a precaution, the White House grounds were evacuated, and the DC Fire Departments Hazmat team responded.”

Well, now we are learning more.

According to the Washington PostTMZ and others in new Tuesday morning reports, an audio transmission that went out over police and fire dispatcher radios on Sunday night has confirmed that the substance found in the White House was actually cocaine.

The transmission indicated that officials apparently tested the suspicious substance to be sure, and one fire official could be heard saying this over the radio following the application of the color-based testing kit:

“We have a yellow bar saying cocaine hydrochloride.”

Whoa!

The Washington Post and others captured the transmission in real time, and confirmed it was sent at 8:49 pm local time from the White House on Sunday evening. You can listen to it for yourself HERE.

Obviously, it’s unclear — and very concerning — how cocaine could have gotten into an area of the West Wing “that President Biden frequents a lot on the job,” per TMZ. Beyond that, all agents will say about where it was found is that the cocaine was discovered “in a work area.” Huh…

For what it’s worth, President Biden was not in the White House over the weekend much at all, and specifically he was not at home in the building during the actual evacuation on Sunday night.

For now, per the WaPo, officials are doubling down on that quickie test to be sure the substance actually is cocaine, like they suspect. It sounds like there is no concern with it being any kind of poison, or an incendiary device left for some terroristic purpose or whatever.

So, that’s good, at least? Jeez. But now, officials must look into how it got there, who put it there, and why…

Here’s more on the developing story, if you’re curious (below):

So wild and unexpected. And scary!!

Reactions, Perezcious readers??
