Brainless Bodies, Hooters' Family Makeover, and a Pregnant Bank Robber
The Headlines: Scientists Are Developing Brainless Human Bodies for Organ Transplants and Medical Testing Hooters Is Trying to Go Family-Friendly in a $300 Million Rebrand A Pregnant Woman Pulled Off Two Bank Heists—And Tricked Her Husband Into Being the Getaway Driver Scientists Are Working on "Brainless Bodies" for Organ Transplants In what sounds like a sci-fi plot, researchers are exploring the creation of bodyoids—human bodies grown in artificial wombs without brains or consciousness. The goal? To create a sustainable source of organs for transplants and a new way to test medications without using live humans or animals. While the concept raises serious ethical concerns, supporters argue that it could eliminate long transplant waitlists and revolutionize medicine by offering non-sentient test subjects. Scientists are proposing small-scale tests on animals first to see if the process is viable.Source Hooters’ $300 Million Makeover: Less “Hoot,” More Family-Friendly Hooters is in serious financial trouble, with around $300 million in debt and 40 locations shutting down last year. Their latest survival strategy? A family-friendly makeover they're calling "Re-Hooterization"—but some might call it "De-Hooterization." The plan includes: A stronger push toward a family dining atmosphere (yes, Hooters has a kids' menu). A menu overhaul with fresher ingredients. A shift away from the “Hooters Girls” image that made them famous. Will this work, or will it alienate the brand's core audience? Time will tell.Source Pregnant Woman Pulls Two Bank Heists, Tricks Husband Into Being the Getaway Driver In one of the wildest crime stories of the year, a woman in Poland robbed two banks while eight months pregnant—and convinced her husband to unknowingly be her getaway driver. Anna A., 37, got hooked on gangster movies during her pregnancy and decided to live out the fantasy. She told her husband she had a baby doctor appointment, then went inside the banks and pulled off armed heists. She was eventually caught, gave birth in prison, and just lost her appeal. Hollywood, take notes.Source Nina's What's Trending is your daily dose of the hottest headlines, viral moments, and must-know stories from The Jubal Show!

Bieber Unfollows Hailey, Jessica Simpson Drinks WHAT?!, and Yankees’ Home Run Frenzy
The Headlines: Justin & Hailey Bieber Spark More Divorce Rumors After Instagram Drama Jessica Simpson Drinks… Snake WHAT for Her Voice? Are the New York Yankees Cheating? Justin & Hailey Bieber Unfollow Each Other—For Real This Time Two months after Justin Bieber’s Instagram mysteriously unfollowed Hailey, she’s now returned the favor. As of March 31, Hailey is no longer following Justin, and this time, neither has blamed hackers. To make things even weirder, Justin posted some cryptic Instagram Stories, including a selfie captioned, “I tried to play nicey nicey.” He also shared a pic of Hailey with the song Jezebel by Sade, highlighting lyrics about a woman who “deceives people to get what she wants.” Yikes. No official statement from either of them, but… things aren’t looking great.Source Jessica Simpson Says She Drinks Snake Sperm for Her Voice Yes, you read that right. Jessica Simpson recently revealed that her vocal coach recommended an unusual Chinese herbal tonic, and when her team Googled the ingredients, they found it contained… snake sperm. She described it as being “like honey” (ew), and then casually added, “If you want a good vocal, you gotta drink snake sperm.” If this is the secret to hitting high notes, maybe we’re better off with autotune.Source Are the New York Yankees Cheating? The Yankees have come out swinging—literally. They hit 15 home runs in their first three games, leading some to wonder if they’ve got an unfair advantage. The secret weapon? Torpedo bats. Unlike traditional bats, these are thicker at the sweet spot, which helps hitters make better contact. But here’s the kicker—they’re totally legal under MLB rules. So, while some fans are side-eyeing their home run spree, the Yankees aren’t technically breaking any rules. They're just breaking records.Source Nina's What's Trending is your daily dose of the hottest headlines, viral moments, and must-know stories from The Jubal Show!

Grandpa Sneakers, Blake Lively’s Happy Place, and Fyre Festival 2 Drama
The Headlines: Grandpa Sneakers Are Officially Cool—According to "GQ" Blake Lively Spotted Working at a Donut Shop in Connecticut Fyre Festival 2 Has a New Location—And It’s Just Two Months Away Grandpa Sneakers Are Now High Fashion Dust off your grandpa’s orthopedic-looking sneakers because GQ says they’re officially cool. New Balance just dropped a new line called Allerdales, and they look straight out of a retirement home—but somehow, they cost $250. This is the second time GQ has written about them, first hyping up the brown version and now the white. So if you see someone rocking what looks like a nurse-recommended shoe, just know—it’s fashion.Source Blake Lively Finds Her “Happy Place” in a Donut Shop Blake Lively surprised fans over the weekend when she was spotted working behind the counter at Rise Doughnuts in Wilton, Connecticut. She shared a pic of the shop’s industrial-size mixer on her Instagram Stories, saying, "Baking with genius food friends… This is what my happy place looks like." A local dad and son even had a hilarious encounter with her, with the dad telling his kid, "Her husband is Deadpool."Source Fyre Festival 2 Changes Locations—With Just Two Months to Go With only two months left before the highly questionable Fyre Festival 2 is supposed to take place, organizers have changed the location. Instead of Isla Mujeres, Mexico, the festival will now allegedly happen in Playa del Carmen. A supposed list of 40 performers is expected to be released this week, but so far, the only confirmed act is former NFL player turned rapper Antonio Brown. Yes, you read that right.

Sharktapus, Loyalty Tests, and Instacart’s Second Stop
The Headlines: Sharktapus Is Trending—But It’s Not What You Think People Are Now Hiring “Loyalty Testers” to Catch Cheaters Instacart’s New Feature Helps Track Down Out-of-Stock Items Sharktapus? Nope—Just an Octopus Riding a Shark Social media is buzzing about Sharktapus this morning, but it’s not some terrifying new hybrid species. Instead, it’s an octopus casually riding on the back of a shark. Researchers from the University of Auckland spotted the unusual duo off the coast of New Zealand’s Kawau Island in December 2023. But it wasn’t until biologist Professor Rochelle Constantine published an article last week that public interest exploded. The footage has since gone viral, leaving people both fascinated and amused.Source Loyalty Testing Services Are on the Rise If you feel the need to “test” your partner’s loyalty, there’s now a whole industry for that. Services like Loyalty-Test.com are helping suspicious partners find out if their significant other is faithful—or not. Customers pick a package, and a hired “tester” slides into their partner’s DMs to see if they take the bait. About 20% fail, and most clients are women. But let’s be real—if you’re paying someone to test your partner, the trust might already be broken.Source Instacart’s New Feature Helps Find Out-of-Stock Items Ever been frustrated when an Instacart shopper says your must-have item is out of stock? The grocery delivery service is rolling out Second Store Check, a feature that recruits a second shopper to find missing items at a different store. If your original shopper can’t find an item, another worker at a nearby location gets an automatic prompt to check their store. The goal? To eliminate those annoying out-of-stock moments and keep your fridge stocked exactly how you want it.Source Nina's What's Trending is your daily dose of the hottest headlines, viral moments, and must-know stories from The Jubal Show!

The Headlines: Brat Summer Is Out—Welcome to Dilly-Dally Spring BTS Drops Lullaby Album for the Next Generation OpenAI Struggles to Keep Up with Demand as GPUs "Melt" "Brat Summer" Is Over—Make Way for "Dilly-Dally Spring" Last year, Brat Summer took over social media, fueled by Charli XCX’s bass-heavy party album Brat. The trend embodied wild, reckless nights, smudged makeup from the night before, and spontaneous tattoos. But 2025 is ushering in a different vibe—TikTokers are now embracing Dilly-Dally Spring. Instead of partying until dawn, the new aesthetic is all about doing… absolutely nothing. Slower days, lazy afternoons, and taking life at a leisurely pace are the new seasonal goals.

Public Pool Scandal, TSA PreCheck Debate, and More
The Headlines: Couple Caught Having Sex in Public Pool, Then Demands Payment Is TSA PreCheck Worth It? A Study Says… Maybe Not Couple Caught Having Sex in Public Pool, Then Demands Payment A couple in Australia’s Ian Dipple Lagoon shocked families and tourists by engaging in public sex—right in the middle of the day. The popular Gold Coast swimming spot, known for its daily pelican feeding, was filled with onlookers, including young children, when the couple got intimate at around 1:30 PM. But it didn’t end there. After finishing their act, the man approached witnesses, demanding their cell phones or payment, claiming he “doesn’t perform for free.” When people refused, he became verbally aggressive, causing some to seek refuge in a nearby hotel. Authorities are now reviewing footage recorded by bystanders—because, of course, people filmed it.Source Is TSA PreCheck Worth It? A Study Says… Maybe Not If you’ve ever debated whether TSA PreCheck is worth it, a new study might give you pause. The research found that the expedited security program only saves travelers an average of seven minutes at the airport. The study reports that PreCheck users spend around 36 minutes in security lines compared to 43 minutes for non-members. But frequent flyers argue those seven minutes are some of the most stressful moments of the airport experience. While it may not be a huge time-saver, skipping the long lines, removing shoes, and dealing with extra screening still makes the process smoother for many.Source Nina's What's Trending is your daily dose of the hottest headlines, viral moments, and must-know stories from The Jubal Show!
