U.S. skier Lindsey Vonn shared an update to social media after a devastating crash 13 seconds into her Olympic final on Sunday destroyed her chances of becoming the oldest ever skier to win an Olympic medal. In an Instagram post, Vonn, 41, revealed the cause of the crash, which resulted in a complex tibia fracture that will require multiple surgeries to fix. “I was simply 5 inches too tight on my line when my right arm hooked inside of the gate, twisting me and resulted in my crash,” Vonn said. “My ACL and past injuries had nothing to do with my crash whatsoever,” she added, heading off further speculation that an ACL injury acquired nine days prior to the event contributed to the incident. “While yesterday did not end the way I had hoped, and despite the intense physical pain it caused, I have no regrets,” Vonn wrote. “Knowing I stood there having a chance to win was a victory in and of itself.” She ended her post with a powerful message for her fans, writing, “I hope if you take away anything from my journey it’s that you all have the courage to dare greatly. Life is too short not to take chances on yourself.”

A Minnesota gubernatorial candidate is suspending his campaign after his daughter was fatally stabbed. Jeff Johnson, a Republican and former St. Cloud City Council member, left the race after his daughter, 22-year-old Hallie Tobler, was stabbed on Saturday. Authorities suspect her husband, Dylan Tobler, 23, is responsible for the stabbing. Police responded the night of Feb. 7 to reports of a medical emergency at the couple’s locked apartment, where they found Hallie Tobler dead and her husband suffering from what are believed to be self-inflicted stab wounds. “Based on the investigation, it is believed that (the husband’s) injuries are self-inflicted and that he is the person responsible for Hallie’s injuries and death,” St. Cloud police said. Dylan Tobler was hospitalized and is in stable condition. “There are no words that can adequately express the sorrow we feel for Jeff and his family,“ the Republican Party of Minnesota wrote on Facebook. “The loss of a child is unimaginable, and our thoughts and prayers are with them as they grieve this devastating tragedy.”

Blake Garrett, a former child star best known for his role in the 2006 film How to Eat Fried Worms, died on Sunday at the age of 33. His mother, Carol Garrett, confirmed his death to TMZ and said that the family is still awaiting the autopsy results to determine an official cause of death. Carol told the outlet that Garrett went to the emergency room in Oklahoma last week after he had been experiencing intense pain, where he was later diagnosed with shingles. She added that he may have tried to self-medicate to deal with the pain, and thinks his death could have been an unfortunate accident. She also told the outlet that he had been sober and doing well living in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Born in Austin, Texas, he had a slate of early leading roles in local productions of Aladdin and His Magical Lamp and Peanuts: A Charlie Brown Tribute. In 2006, he played the character Plug in How to Eat Fried Worms, for which he earned a Young Artist Award for Best Young Ensemble Cast.

Organizers of Kid Rock’s music festival, Rock the Country, are finally addressing the cancellation of one of its shows. Various artists dropped out of the Anderson, South Carolina, festival date after it was announced that Kid Rock would be the headliner of Turning Point USA’s “All-American” Super Bowl Halftime Show. The artists included co-headliners Shinedown and rapper Ludacris. “Our fans work hard for their money, and we refuse to put on a show that doesn’t meet the standard they deserve,” Rock the Country said in a statement Monday, after axing the show over the weekend. The organizers added that “Rock the Country was created to unite people together through music,” and that they were “truly disappointed we won’t be bringing the show to Anderson.” There are seven more shows slated for the rest of the year. Jason Aldean, Blake Shelton, Jelly Roll, and Lynyrd Skynyrd have stayed on the festival’s lineup.

An Amazon delivery drone took a wrong turn right into an apartment building. The crash occurred just two weeks after Amazon’s drone delivery service was temporarily suspended in Texas and Arizona following testing crashes. No one was hurt, but the drone was destroyed in the accident. For Cesarina Johnson, it was the first time she’d ever seen the futuristic device in action, and she pulled out her phone to record. Amazon began using drones to deliver packages in October of last year, after receiving approval from the Federal Aviation Administration. Johnson ended up catching the Amazon MK30 drone mid-crash. In the video, she is heard saying, “Oh s--t! Oh god! Man down.” She described the scene to Fox 4 news, “The propellers on the thing were still moving, and you could smell it was starting to burn.” According to witnesses, firefighters and an Amazon worker arrived to deal with the remnants of the flying machine, cleaned up the scene, and stowed them onto a truck bed.

Singer Brooke Josephson announced she is divorcing her husband, Bones producer Barry Josephson, as new emails shed light on the extent of his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. The singer, 46, said on Instagram Saturday that she “was not aware of Barry’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein during [their] entire marriage.” According to the newly unsealed documents, Barry, 49, received loans from the late financier on at least two occasions totaling more than $300,000. The records show that the men exchanged frequent emails, including about women. In one troubling correspondence in 2011, Epstein asked Barry if he knew any amazing women in their early 20s to act as an assistant. Barry then replied, “I have ‘the’ girl. Young, attractive, insane rack.” Earlier this month, Barry told Variety that he cut ties with Epstein after getting to know him better. But when pressed on when that was, the producer hung up on the call. Brooke, who wed Barry in 2007 and shares two children with him, said they separated in December 2024. She asked for privacy in her post. “I respectfully request privacy and prayers for our children and I during this time,” she said.

Snowboarder Chloe Kim rushed to her fellow Olympian’s defense after President Donald Trump labeled freestyle skier Hunter Hess “a real loser” in a vicious attack. The two-time Olympic snowboard halfpipe gold medalist said Trump’s words resonated personally as the daughter of immigrants. “We need to lead with love and compassion, and I’d love to see more of that,” said Kim, 25, who is chasing a historic third straight Olympic gold. “Obviously, my parents being immigrants, this one hits pretty close to home. I’m really proud to represent the United States, but I also think we are allowed to voice our opinions.” Trump lashed out at Hess after the Team USA athlete said he had “mixed emotions” about representing the United States at the 2026 Winter Olympics. “There’s obviously a lot going on that I’m not the biggest fan of and think a lot of people aren’t,” Hess said. “If it aligns with my moral values, I feel like I’m representing it. But just because I’m wearing the flag doesn’t mean that I represent everything that’s going on in the U.S.” Hess is one of several Olympic athletes who have spoken out against Trump and his aggressive immigration enforcement tactics.

Cuba has told international airlines it won’t be able to refuel their planes, as supply dries up following President Trump’s military operation in Venezuela. Deliveries to the island nation have been choked off by Washington, after it took control of Venezuelan exports following the abduction of dictator Nicolás Maduro and encouraged Mexico to withhold supply. Stocks in the communist-run country are due to run out on Tuesday, its government said, according to Reuters. Cuba is reliant on oil from Venezuela—its top supplier until recent disruptions—receiving barrels in exchange for sending security personnel and other assistance to Caracas. Airlines from the U.S., Panama, and Mexico are expected to be the hardest hit by the shortage. The disruption is expected to strain the country’s already-frail tourism industry, which endured an 18-point decline in visitor numbers last year and is struggling to recover from Covid-19, The Financial Times reports. It added that Cuba has not received any oil since early January when it got a shipment from Mexico, and that swathes of the island’s business are subject to U.S. government trade restrictions.

Super Bowl winner Barry Wilburn has died in a house fire at the age of 62, his family has confirmed. The Memphis, Tennessee, fire department said he was killed on Friday morning, according to local outlet WREG, with the Washington Commanders announcing his death on Sunday. Personnel were called out to the Orange Mound neighborhood at around 2 a.m., but when they extinguished the blaze, they found Wilburn inside, declaring him dead at the scene. He led the NFL for interceptions in the 1987 season with nine, making two during the Super Bowl as he and the side—then named the Redskins—lifted the sport’s ultimate trophy with a crushing 42-10 win over the Denver Broncos. Before joining Washington in 1985, he played college football in Mississippi, and after his time in the capital, played for the Cleveland Browns and the Philadelphia Eagles. “I always looked up to him,” Wilburn’s former Melrose High School teammate, Tim Thompson, told WREG. “He was like a role model.” “We’re saddened to learn of the passing of former Washington All-Pro and Super Bowl XXII champion Barry Wilburn,” the Commanders said on X. “Sending our deepest condolences to his family and friends.”
