"SNL" Alum Kate McKinnon Reveals She Was Diagnosed With Geographic Tongue: 'It's Gross' (Exclusive)

Bryan Adams/Searchlight Pictures Leave it toKate McKinnonto have a little fun with a benign medical diagnosis. TheSNLalum, 41, who is featured in this week's One Last Thing, was asked about the last screenshot or picture she took on her phone. "I took a photo of my tongue and sent it to an actor friend of mine," she says. "We both have the same medical condition. It's called geographic tongue. Your tongue sheds in patches and looks like an atlas, hence the name 'geographic tongue.'" Jason Mendez/Getty for Searchlight Pictures According to Mayo Clinic,geographic tongueis an inflammatory but harmless condition affecting the surface of the tongue. Patches on the tongue are missing papillae, which are tiny, pinkish-white bumps, and look like a map. They often appear in one area and then move to a different part of the tongue. "It's gross," McKinnon adds. "We brag about how geographic we are on any given day. Maybe I shouldn't be saying this in a magazine."

Dave Grohl and Wife Jordyn Blum Are 'Very Happy' 1 Year After He Welcomed Secret Baby (Exclusive Source)

Yolo / BACKGRID One year after Dave Grohl revealed that he'd welcomed a child outside of his marriage to Jordyn Blum, the couple is "very happy," a source tells PEOPLE "She feels it was all worth fighting for," the source says of Blum, who shares three daughters with the Foo Fighters frontman The latest insight into the couple's marriage comes as they were spotted together in a rare outing in L.A. on Sept. 5 One year after the scandal that shook their marriage,Jordyn BlumandDave Grohlare going strong. In September 2024, theFoo Fightersfrontman, 56, revealed thathe'd welcomed a fourth child"outside of [his] marriage" to Blum, 49, sparking rumors about whether the couple — who met in 2001, wed in 2003 andshare three daughters— was heading for a split. A year later, a source tells PEOPLE that the pair are now "very happy." "She's forgiven him," the source says of Blum. "They never wanted a divorce though — the idea of splitting up their family was too sad for both of them. They love their girls and they're both great parents." Blum "was initially distraught, but the betrayal was painful for both of them," and Grohl "felt terrible and begged her to forgive him," the insider says. Plus, they add, Blum is "surrounded by friends who believe in marriage and encouraged her to fight for it." "They're very happy now," the source says. "She feels it was all worth fighting for." Yolo / BACKGRID The latest insight into the couple's marriage comes as they were spotted together in a rare outing in Los Angeles, on Friday, Sept. 5. The pair were photographed while out and about with friends in L.A., where they attended the Supergrass concert at the Hollywood Palladium. Reps for Grohl did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment on Saturday, Sept. 6. In Grohl's statement announcing that he'd welcomed a baby outside of his marriage in September 2024, the musician said: "I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness. We're grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together." "He knows he messed up," an insider said at the time. "It's one of those situations where you don't realize what you have until you're about to lose it. He doesn't want to lose his family."

"It was just such a shock for Jordyn. Her first instinct was that she wanted a divorce. The betrayal felt too heavy," the source explained at the time. "But as weeks passed, she got some space to think and it just felt very sad to her if the family would split up." The pair werephotographed together for the first timesince the scandal in February 2025, andstepped out togetheragain in March.

Baby, children among 11 missing after hippo capsizes boat

Baby, children among 11 missing after hippo capsizes boat

Eleven people, including children and a baby, were missing after a hippopotamus capsized their boat in southwestern Ivory Coast, a government official said Saturday. The West African nation's minister for national cohesion and solidarity, Myss Belmonde Dogo,said on her Facebook pagethat the missing included women, little girls and an infant. She said the hippopotamus tipped the narrow, canoe-like boat over on Friday, as it was motoring along the Sassandra River near the town of Buyo. Three people survived the incident and were rescued, and "a search is ongoing in the hope of finding the missing victims," she said. A 2022 study by Ivory Coast university researchers found that hippopotamuses were the species most mentioned in interactions with humans that caused deaths or injury in the country. There are an estimated 500 hippos in Ivory Coast, distributed among the various rivers in country's south, mainly the Sassandra and the Bandama water courses. Boat accidents are fairly common in the country, as handcrafted longboats are used to navigate between waterside communities, and are frequently overloaded with passengers and goods. In April, a dozen children and adolescents drowned when the boat they were on capsized in a lagoon near the principal city of Abidjan. Estimates of how many people are killed by hippos each year vary, with lower figures beginning at around 500. In June 2024, a woman from New Jersey was killed in an hippopotamus attack during a safari in Zambia. The woman's husbandlater suedthe U.S. company that arranged the trip. In 2023, seven people were killed,including a 1-year-old child, in the southern African nation of Malawi when a hippo charged into a canoe and capsized it on a river. In 2018, a Chinese tourist and a local fisherman werekilled in hippo attackson the same day in Kenya. Hippos are the world's second-largest land mammalsafter elephants, measuring about 11 feet long and about 5 feet tall, according to International Fund for Animal Welfare. The average male hippo weighs about 7,000 pounds.

In Chicago, ICE fears turn Mexican parade into a ghost town

In Chicago, ICE fears turn Mexican parade into a ghost town

By Heather Schlitz and Renee Hickman CHICAGO (Reuters) -A normally raucous, colorful parade to mark Mexican Independence Day in Chicago turned quiet and nervous on Saturday as U.S. President Donald Trump signaled he intended to ramp up deportations in the nation's third-largest city. In a break from traditional celebrations, twirling folklorico dancers decked in glimmering jewelry and billowing, multi-colored dresses distributed "know your rights" pamphlets to sparse crowds in the city's historically Mexican Pilsen neighborhood. Horses wore the colors of Mexico's flag in their tails, while their riders wore neon-orange whistles around their necks in case they needed to alert attendees of Immigration and Custom Enforcement agents. Along the sidelines, volunteers also kept watch for ICE. "This place would normally be packed," Eddie Chavez, a lifelong Pilsen resident, said while waving a Mexican flag in a lone row of lawn chairs along the parade route. "Now it's empty, like a ghost town." Trump alluded to immigration raids in Chicago in a Truth Social post that echoed the movie Apocalypse Now. "I love the smell of deportations in the morning," his post said, above an image of Trump in a military uniform juxtaposed against flames and Chicago's skyline. "Chicago is about to find out why it's called the Department of WAR." Trump signed an executive order on Friday to rename the Department of Defense as the "Department of War." Illinois Govornor JB Pritzker, a Democrat and vocal critic of Trump, said on Tuesday he believed ICE raids would coincide with Mexican Independence day festivals scheduled for this weekend and next weekend. Some Mexican festivals in the Chicago area were postponed or canceled amid fears of immigration raids. "We're scared, but we're here," said Isabel Garcia, a dancer in Saturday's parade wearing a marigold-yellow dress and multi-colored ribbons and flowers in her hair. "We're Mexican. We have to celebrate, and they're not going to stop us." ICE has not responded to requests for comment on whether it sent more agents to Chicago, and residents said they had not seen significantly stepped-up immigration enforcement so far. A large protest against ICE was expected later on Saturday in Chicago, after thousands turned out for a Labor Day protest on Monday. Trump last month deployed National Guard troops to Washington, saying they would "re-establish law, order, and public safety." In addition to Chicago, he has suggested the possibility of deploying troops to Democratic-run Baltimore in Maryland.

Paula Deen shades former detractor Anthony Bourdain after his suicide: 'Didn't like anybody, not even himself'

Paula Deen shades former detractor Anthony Bourdain after his suicide: 'Didn't like anybody, not even himself'

Paul Bruinooge/Patrick McMullan via Getty Paula Deen's new documentary follows her downfall after her headline-making N-word controversy. The film also chronicles her feud with Anthony Bourdain, who died by suicide in 2018. Deen says in the film that Bourdain "didn't like anybody, not even himself." Celebrity cookPaula Deenisn't mincing words when it comes to one of her most vocal former detractors, as the southern foodie takes a devastating swipe at the lateAnthony Bourdainin her new documentaryCanceled: The Paula Deen Story. The film, which premiered Saturday at the 2025Toronto International Film Festival, charts Deen's rise to prominence as a purveyor of deep-fried delicacies throughout the late '90s and early aughts, through to her near-career-ending 2013 scandal that saw her admit in a legal deposition (stemming from a lawsuit by a former employee of her brother's restaurant) that she "of course" used the N-word at one point in her life. Canceledalso highlights other controversies in Deen's career, including her public spats with Bourdain, the world-traveling chef andCNNtravel documentarian wholater died by suicide in 2018. "Anthony Bourdain did call me the most dangerous woman in America," Deen says in the documentary, amid flashes of archival news clips from 2011 that see journalists recounting Bourdain labeling Deen as the "worst, most dangerous person in America." Daniel Boczarski/Getty Bourdain himself is shown in the film saying, "This is not southern food she's been selling. Her brand has been all these years, novelty food." He's additionally shown slamming her paid partnership with a drug corporation to hawk diabetes medication. Deen's son, Bobby, then laments Bourdain's additional assertion that his mom's food "sucks," saying, "I think both are inaccurate," while archival footage of Deen onThe Joy Behar Showincludes her taking another swipe at Bourdain's penchant for exotic foods, quipping, "Let me tell you something, girlfriend. Maybe [my food] is bad for you, but I don't go around eating or serving unwashed anuses of wildebeests." Back in her documentary interview, Deen takes another shot at Bourdain: "I don't know what he was off in these foreign countries eating. Bat brains or something like that," she says. "I think I'll just stick with my fried chicken." Later, speaking about his death, Deen says, "God rest his soul. I felt like he didn't like anybody. Not even himself, maybe." The documentary then plays an older clip of Bourdain referencing another one of Deen's comments about him. "I like the quote, it was, 'Well, he has had his demons, I hope he had them under control.' He's probably still shooting dope, is probably what she's saying in a nice kind of southern way," Bourdain says. Deen eventually voices disappointment over their public feud, telling the documentary crew, "He started something with me, and I'd never even met him," while the film shows an older shot of Deen making a public call for Bourdain to come to her home to eat a home-cooked meal, which he never took her up on. The segment ends with another shot of Bourdain telling a journalist it would take "nuclear war" for him to agree to eat Deen's cooking. Discovery Canceledalso probes into Deen's defining controversy after she admitted in her deposition to using the N-word in the past. The headline-making incident occurred after Lisa Jackson, a white employee who previously worked at one of Deen's many restaurants in Savannah, Ga., filed a lawsuit alleging racial bias. In the suit, Jackson additionally accused Deen's brother, the late Earl W. Hiers, of sexual harassment. In August 2013, afederal judge dismissed the racial biasportion of the suit, though, in her deposition, Deen had already admitted to using the N-word in the past (which she says in the documentary stemmed from a robbery incident years prior). Fallout from the admission hit Deen's career hard, with the Food Network declining to maintain ties with her, while she lost several endorsement deals.

Deen maintains throughoutCanceledthat she isn't racist, and the film includes contributions from many of her associates who say that they also don't feel she has ever racially discriminated against others. At the time of the lawsuit, a spokesperson for Deen told theNew York Times, "As Ms. Deen has stated before, she is confident that those who truly know how she lives her life know that she believes in equal opportunity, kindness and fairness for everyone."
