Bill Belichick continues to be full of surprises. Last week he shocked pretty much everyone when he took the head coaching job at UNC, bringing his brand of football to a college team for the first time.

And on Sunday we found out what unlikely NFL team Belichick had interest in before he got involved with UNC. Are you ready?

The New York Jets. The same team Belichick left suddenly 24 years ago after less than a day as head coach. According to The Athletic’s Diana Russini, the Jets were “informed” around two weeks ago that Belichick had “interest in their organization.”

It’s unclear what “interest in their organization” really meant, but the Jets are a team that could have been exactly what Belichick was looking for. They have an opening for a new head coach (Robert Saleh was fired after Week 5) and general manager (Joe Douglas was fired after week 11). While those are typically separate positions, Belichick served as both GM and head coach during his many years with the New England Patriots. His preference for that kind of structure may have hampered his search for a new job at the end of last season, since most teams prefer to employ a separate head coach and GM.

Russini said the Jets were “stunned” to find out Belichick, who had quit all those years ago by writing a note on a napkin that said “I resign as HC of the NYJ,” was interested in a reunion.

Nothing came of his interest, though. Very few people within the Jets were made aware of a possible Belichick partnership. According to Russini, the Jets and Belichick never got to the point of meetings or a formal discussion before the UNC train got rolling.

A judge in Las Vegas sentenced a Texas man to 100 years in prison for his role in a two-state shooting rampage on Thanksgiving 2020 that included the killing of a man in Nevada and a shootout with authorities in Arizona.

Christopher McDonnell, 32, pleaded guilty in October to more than 20 felonies including murder, attempted murder, murder conspiracy, weapon charges and being a felon illegally in possession of a firearm.

Clark County District Judge Tierra Jones sentenced him on Friday to a minimum of 100 years in prison, KLAS-TV reported. If he’s still alive, he would be eligible for parole in 2120 with credit for time served.

McDonnell of Tyler, Texas, his brother Shawn McDonnell, 34, and Shawn McDonnell’s then-wife, Kayleigh Lewis, 29, originally faced dozens of charges.

Police and prosecutors say the trio began an 11-hour rampage on Nov. 26, 2020 that included apparently random shootings that killed Kevin Mendiola Jr., 22, at a convenience store in Henderson, near Las Vegas, and drive-by gunfire that wounded several other people.

The group then continued into Arizona, where there were additional shootings, including one involving a police officer. All three were arrested after their car rolled over.

Prosecutors said Lewis was the driver as the two brothers fired indiscriminately out of the vehicle’s windows. Shawn McDonnell and Lewis are awaiting trial.

The shooting rampage ended near the Colorado River town of Parker, Arizona, after a chase involving officers from the Arizona Department of Public Safety, the crash of a car with a Texas license plate and the wounding of Shawn McDonnell by troopers wielding assault-style rifles, police said.

Donny Osmond gave his Glasgow audience an unforgettable surprise when he spotted Susan Boyle in the crowd at the Hydro. Without hesitation, he invited the beloved singer to join him on stage for an impromptu duet. The two performed “This Is the Moment,” a song they originally recorded together in 2012, creating a magical moment that left the crowd in awe.

In a heartwarming moment caught on camera, Donny Osmond is seen holding her hand with a warm smile and then her hand with a warm smile. Boyle hesitated briefly before finding her place in the song, before delivering a powerful chorus alongside Osmond.

The audience erupted into cheers, swept up by the magic of their duet. As the performance ended, Osmond embraced Boyle once more, leaving fans with a memory to treasure. The clip finishes with him telling the crowd, “That was a treat – thank you, Susan. I love that woman.”

Watch their first performance of ‘This Is the Moment’ in the video below. No matter how much time has passed, their vocals remain incredible. The harmony of their voices captivates audiences both onstage and beyond the screen.

Scrolling through the video’s comments, you’ll find compliments posted just a few months ago. One wrote, “Her voice is so amazing. Despite the nerves you could hear in the beginning, Donnie is always an entertainer and kind hearted.”

Another also noticed, “Donny is so gracious. Susan seemed so nervous but Donny was there to calm her. He is a wonderful human being and Susan an inspiration to us all, living her dream.”

Susan Boyle became an instant sensation throughout the world after she appeared on the third series of “Britain’sGot Talent.” Although that introduction aired over a decade ago, Boyle has managed a level of staying power rarely seen by TV stars. That performance of the Les Mis classic I Dreamed a Dream has been watched millions of times, including the scowling and then shocked face of Simon Cowell.

Susan Magdalene Boyle was born on April 1, 1961, in Blackburn, West Lothian. Her father, Patrick Boyle, was a WWII veteran and miner who also sang at Bishop Blaize. His wife, Bridget, worked as a shorthand typist. The couple had nine children; four sons and five daughters, with Susan being their very last. As a child, she was told that she had developed a learning disability as a result of oxygen deprivation during birth. In an interview with the Guardian in 2013, the singer got candid about how she got bullied by her peers because she was “different.” Throughout her life, Susan has suffered from emotional outbursts and struggled with social interaction and communication, which has often interfered with her ability to form relationships and act appropriately. Singing would be the only activity she could do that would bring her solace.

 “I come from a musical family,” Susan said. “It has always been there, from my father down. Singing is always something I have done. It has been in my blood since I was 12 and took part in school productions and shows.”

Then finally in her 50s, she was diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome.

Susan had visited a doctor to speak about anxiety, which she boiled down to something being wrong with her.

“I went to seek a diagnosis from a Scottish specialist,” Susan explained. “Nobody told me to. I thought I had a more serious illness and couldn’t function properly.”

Her doctor prescribed various tests for her, which eventually showed her “IQ was above average.”

Susan admitted that she was grateful to have received the diagnosis, but stressed that she would not let it define her.

“It will not make any difference to my life. It’s just a condition that I have to live with and work through,” she said, adding that she only hoped it would help others understand her better and show empathy.

“I think people will treat me better because they will have a much greater understanding of who I am and why I do the things I do.”

She left school with few qualifications and entered a governmental vocational training program to find employment. Susan also pursued singing professionally, occasionally taking up gigs performing in local venues. She became a member of her church’s choir, where she also volunteered. Eventually, the songstress was accepted at the Edinburgh Acting School and appeared at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival – an annual city-wide event that features local performers. In 1999, Susan recorded an album for charity, titled “Cry Me a River,” which was pressed around 1,000 times. The star even had a small stint on British television, having appeared on Michael Barrymore’s show “My Kind of People.”

“I did My Kind of People for fun,” she said. “I also sang locally but things had quietened down.”

But when her mother, Brigitte, began too frail to care for herself, Susan took a break from singing to be there for her. After her mother passed away in 2007, she was inspired to take a chance and audition for “Britain’s Got Talent.”

“I had a bit of a rest after my mum died, but I had seen Britain’s Got Talent on TV and thought I would have a go,” Susan recalled. “Paul Potts was really good. He was an inspiration to a lot of people and I thought I would take my chances.”

She attended her first audition in Glasgow that October, which was then followed by a second in front of Simon Cowell and his co-judges. “I was very nervous,” she said.

At the time, Susan differed greatly from the contestants we were used to seeing on the show. She was a simple, middle-aged woman from rural Scotland in a lacy beige dress and a warm smile. Both the viewers and the judges alike were unsure of what to expect. But when she belted out “I Dreamed A Dream,” the whole room was instantly bewildered by her immensely beautiful voice.

“I expected people to be a wee bit cynical,” Susan said. “But I decided to win the round. That is what you do. They didn’t know what to expect. Before Britain’s Got Talent, I had never had a proper chance. It’s as simple as that. You just have to keep going and take one step at a time and one day you will make it. You just don’t give up.”

That night shot Susan to international fame. She represented a different kind of role model; one that didn’t fit into the traditional narrative of successful celebrities. She was just an ordinary person past her 40s, worlds away from the movie-star good looks we see on the covers of glossy magazines. But she could sing – well, in fact. She was proof that anyone could go after their dreams, no matter their background, or how they looked. She came second in the 2009 series of “Britain’s Got Talent,” but that only marked the beginning of her rise to international stardom.

Sadly, after her stint on “Britain’s Got Talent,” Susan was admitted to The Priory Clinic in London due to exhaustion and anxiety. At the time, the press coverage surrounding the singer had become too intense. At the time, Piers Morgan, who was a judge on the show when Susan appeared, told the BBC that the attention she had received was “crazy” and “nobody could have predicted it.”

“She wasn’t used to it, and just needs a break,” Morgan said. “She said she was exhausted, she said she was physically and mentally drained, she’d been sick a few times in the previous week, hadn’t been sleeping, hadn’t been eating – and had found the whole weight of the world’s media pressure crashing down on her shoulders,” he added.

Thankfully, Susan recovered and got straight back to work, touring with “Britain’s Got Talent” and later recording her own music.

In 2011, just two years after her sting on the televised talent show, Susan released her rendition of the classic song, “Unchained Melody.”

Although the song was originally sung by Alex North in 1955, it rose to fame when the Righteous Brothers covered it a decade later. The track appeared on her album “Someone to Watch Over Me,” which earned her her third UK Number one hit, according to the BBC.

Speaking to the Sun at the time, Susan revealed the title of her album was inspired by her search for love.

“It’s about that special person I would love to meet, that longing for that person to come along,” the singer explained. “When he does, he’ll be that person to watch over me and I will watch over him. You need someone to watch over you and I haven’t had that since my mother died.”

You might remember that Susan admitted during her audition for “Britain’s Got Talent” that at 47 years old, she still had never kissed anyone.

“We all like the idea of sharing our lives with someone who is going to protect and look after us. I’m on my own quite a lot and that special person hasn’t come along yet.” she said. “I’ve had a few offers in the post and, let me tell you, some of them are beauties. They say: ‘I’ve seen your YouTube video and I think I like you. I live on my own and I need somebody, too.’”

According to the Daily Record, Susan finally had her first boyfriend at the age of 53. Not much is known about him, except that he was around the same age as her and that he was an American Doctor.

Sadly, while the singer might have described him as the “perfect gentleman,” the eventually called it quits.

“I don’t want to say any more about who he is right now as that would be unfair on him. All I’ll say is we are around the same age and he was a very nice guy,” she said, adding that a long term relationship with him “just wasn’t practical.”

Susan accompanied her rendition of “Unchained Melody” with a breathtaking black-and-white music video, in which the singer performs the song surrounded by her orchestra. Here serene, solemn disposition throughout the clip perfectly encompasses the mood of the famous tune. She stayed true to the song while adding her “Susan” twist to it with her magical voice. The video, which was posted on YouTube upon its release, attracted over 10 million views since it’s upload as well as thousands of comments praising the talented singer for her performance. One fan, Sarah McCormack, wrote that Susan and her music were important to her because of the memories it brought about her late mother.

“A simply stunning version of this song Susan,” McCormack commented. “I brought my mum your album about 5 years ago knowing she would love it. She had just been diagnosed with breast cancer at the time. Unfortunately she passed away 3 weeks ago and she had requested your unchained melody be played at her funeral. It was simply breathtaking and everyone was in tears. Luv it Susan.”

Other fans wrote of how talented the singer is, with one commenting that Susan’s talent was “a gift to humanity.”

Donny Osmond gave his Glasgow audience an unforgettable surprise when he spotted Susan Boyle in the crowd at the Hydro. Without hesitation, he invited the beloved singer to join him on stage for an impromptu duet. The two performed “This Is the Moment,” a song they originally recorded together in 2012, creating a magical moment that left the crowd in awe.

The Voice season 26 finalist Jeremy Beloate’s heartfelt Blind Audition performance of Giveon’s “Heartbreak Anniversary” earned the Memphis native a couple of notches in his belt. He clinched a sought-after four-chair turn and brought coach Reba McEntire to tears. Initially selecting Michael Bublé as his coach, Beloate landed on Team Snoop after losing the three-way Knockout round to fellow finalist Sofronio Vasquez. Now the season is drawing to a close, with Beloate among the Top 5 finalist left to slug it out for the crown. And his performance during Monday’s (Dec. 9) finale episode further demonstrated why the 25-year-old is at the top of so many viewers’ lists.

Jeremy Beloate Could Win ‘The Voice’

The Voice viewers will unmask its season 26 winner during Tuesday’s (Dec. 10) Part 2 finale episode. Jeremy Beloate is the lone Team Snoop representative in the Top 5. “He’s an exceptional vocalist, and I’m so happy for him,” the “Gin and Juice rapper told ExtraTV. “I think he’s going to do his thing tonight.”

He did his thing, indeed, with an electrifying performance of “What the World Needs Now Is Love” by Jackie DeShannon.

Later in the night, Beloate followed with another epic performance of “Dancing on My Own” by Calum Scott and Tiësto.”

Kelly Clarkson returned to The Voice briefly to perform during the season 26 finale, but fans are calling for her to return to her big red chair. She stunned during the finale with her new holiday single “You for Christmas,” which had everyone getting in the holiday mood.

Taking to the elaborate Christmas-themed set, Kelly Clarkson wowed the audience with her signature vocals. Fans on social media praised her voice and her outfit, with one fan noting that she “never disappoints.” Another wrote, “sing the damn song KELLY!” She hit some incredible high notes at the conclusion of the song, earning her a standing ovation.

Some fans on Instagram commented, “Who else [hopes] Kelly will be back on The Voice soon?” while another wrote, “I miss you on the voice.”

Despite fans wanting her back on The Voice, Clarkson most likely will not return in any official capacity. She’s been hosting her successful daytime show since 2019 and celebrated five years of the show this year. Additionally, she’s previously stated that she wouldn’t return as a coach, but seemingly has no qualms about revisiting her old job for a little fun.

The Voice Picks Its Winner After Guests Take the Stage for Stunning Performances

In addition to Kelly Clarkson’s performance, fans got appearances from various The Voice alums. This included season 24 winner Huntley, season 25 winner Asher HaVon, and former coaches Dan + Shay. Huntley performed his newest single, “Skyline Drive,” which is what he calls his “love letter to Virginia.”

Rising star Myles Smith also performed his breakout hit “Stargazing.” Riley Green and Ella Langley, known for their runaway hit “You Look Like You Love Me,” performed Green’s song “Don’t Mind If I Do.” Additionally, coach Snoop Dogg and Mega Mentor Sting took the stage together to perform their new single, “Another Part of Me.”

Finally, the four coaches will also perform duets with their contestants. This is a staple of The Voice finale when the Top 5 get to show off their skills alongside their adoring coaches.

American Idol is a popular singing competition, where aspiring singers showcase their talent and pursue their dreams in the music industry. Over the years, the show saw numerous successful artists, contributing to the vibrant landscape of American music.

In 2009, Lambert took part in the 8th season of American Idol in San Francisco, California and captivated everyone’s hearts with some songs “Rock with You”, “Bohemian Rhapsody”, “Believe” and so on.

On a night’s CMT Artists of the Year event in 2015, Adam Lambert joined with Leona Lewis to deliver a wonderful rendition of Little Big Town’s “Girl Crush” in front of a crowd. While they shared the stage, the audience thought that they were witnessing an amazing collaboration of two best voices in the music industry.

Additionally, it was widely shared across various social media platforms and received an abundance of positive feedback. Take a moment to witness their breathtaking performance below:

Both Adam and Leona deserve to get people’s admiration and respect. One wrote, “Adam is the best singer. He can sing anything with the wonderful vocal range he has there is nobody.

Another shared one’s thought, “why is Leona so perfect? Her voice is seriously the most beautiful I’ve ever heard, she deserves so much recognition for her talent. Adam is also brilliant and another example of talent that isn’t appreciated enough. Great duet.”

While stomach cancer can develop silently in its early stages, it is important to note that many of the early symptoms are non-specific and can be caused by various other conditions. In addition, stomach cancer is often diagnosed at a more advanced stage when symptoms become more noticeable. However, if you experience persistent or worrying symptoms, it is essential to seek medical attention for a proper evaluation. Some possible early signs of stomach cancer may include:

Indigestion or heartburn:
Persistent indigestion or heartburn that does not improve with over-the-counter medications may be a symptom.

Anorexia:
Significant and unexplained loss of appetite may be an indicator of various digestive problems, including stomach cancer.

Unexplained weight loss:
Unintended weight loss, without a change in diet or physical activity, may be a warning sign.

Discomfort or pain in the stomach area:
Persistent discomfort, pain, or feeling of fullness in the upper abdomen, even after eating small amounts, should be evaluated.

Vomiting and nausea:
Persistent nausea, vomiting, or blood in the vomit may be associated with stomach cancer

Feeling bloated after eating:
Persistent bloating or feeling of excessive fullness after meals should be treated, especially if it is accompanied by other symptoms.

Difficulty swallowing:
Difficulty swallowing or a feeling that food is stuck in the throat may be related to stomach cancer, especially in advanced cases.

Tired:
Unexplained and persistent fatigue, weakness, or low energy levels can be associated with various medical conditions, including stomach cancer.

It is important to realize that these symptoms can also be caused by other, less serious conditions. However, if you notice persistent or worsening symptoms, it is important to consult a healthcare professional. Diagnosis of stomach cancer often involves a combination of medical history, physical examination, imaging tests, endoscopy, and biopsy.

Regular health screenings, especially for individuals with risk factors such as a family history of stomach cancer, H. pylori infection, or certain genetic conditions, are critical for early detection and intervention. If you are concerned about your health or are experiencing symptoms, it is recommended that you consult a healthcare professional for appropriate evaluation.

It just wouldn’t be Christmas without the incredible music of Amy Grant. With three Christmas albums to her credit, the award-winning singer has become synonymous with the holiday. Her annual Christmas tours are one of the biggest draws of the season, especially when she shares the stage with her famous husband, Vince Gill.

The couple, who were each married to someone else when they first met, knew that they had something special when they first stepped into the studio together in 1993 to sing “House of Love.”

“I think that a part of me loved him instantly,” Grant says. “I felt like I knew him instantly. I was so moved by him as a human being that I went up behind him and just hugged him as hard as I could while he was singing. I just said, ‘I just needed to hug you all night.’”

The feeling was mutual as Gill wrote his song “Whenever You Come Around,” for Grant.

“This is a song that was inspired by a smile that I saw for the first time on the face of a woman that I’d never met. That was Amy Grant back in 1993. I was so inspired, moved by the sight of that smile, that I came home and wrote this song,” Gill said.

For seven years after their meeting, the couple fought their feelings for each other and remained faithful to their spouses. But, ultimately both would end up divorced, and in 2000, Vince Gill and Amy Grant married.

In one of the few video clips of the two together before they married, Vince joins Amy to sing her wildly popular Christmas hit “Tennessee Christmas” during a 1993 Christmas with Vince Gill concert in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and the chemistry is undeniable. See for yourself in the video below.
