Megyn Kelly took shots at Sandra Bullock on Thursday for being afraid for her kids' safety because they're Black.
The "Megyn Kelly Show" host went after the "Practical Magic 2" star for comments made during the film's press tour. The actress said she was "uber paranoid" for the safety of her two children – who are both Black – in America right now. Kelly was quick to take issue with that, saying Bullock is feeding into the real problem.
"She has two children, both adopted, I think, from Louisiana. She wants you to believe, just like LeBron James said that Black men are being hunted in the streets of America… that they're being hunted in the streets of America," Kelly said. "She is a low-information voter, obviously, who has bought the lies about police, the false narrative that has besmirched them, defamed them and gotten Black Americans killed, thousands of them. Thousands killed because of fake narratives about the police that caused the police to pull back, especially in underserved communities."
"Minorities wind up dying. Low-income minorities, in particular, wind up dying because crime is unleashed on them by effectively woke white liberals like Sandra Bullock, who pushes false narratives that make her feel better about herself," she continued. "She's going to score points with Hoda [Kotb], but she doesn't give a s–t what happens to the people in Harlem or Downtown Chicago. And trust me when I tell you, her children are not in danger."
Earlier this week, Kotb got teary eyed with Bullock and her co-star Nicole Kidman when she said the star's choice to adopt her children Louis and Laila pushed the "Today" host to make the same decision.

Sandra Bullock is opening up about one of her biggest roles yet: parenting teenagers. As she promotes Practical Magic 2, the actress has offered a refreshingly honest look at protecting family time, ignoring one-size-fits-all parenting advice and even finding a way to include her children in her latest movie.
Bullock, 62, is mom to teenagers Louis, 16, and Laila, 13, and says their schedules now play a major role in the projects she accepts. Rather than expecting her children to fit around Hollywood, she chooses work that allows her to be available when they need her.
The actress has previously been clear about where her priorities lie. "I'm not going to sacrifice my time with my kids," Bullock said while discussing why Practical Magic 2 was able to happen. That approach can become increasingly important as children get older. Teenagers may want more independence, but they still need parents who are present and available when life gets complicated.
Bullock also isn't pretending she has all the answers when it comes to raising teenagers. In a recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, she joked about how difficult it is to offer universal parenting advice when every child is different.
When asked what advice she would give other parents, Bullock's response was simply, "I'm sorry," before explaining that her children are both completely unique.

Jennifer Aniston isn't just close to Sandra Bullock — she's also forged a special connection with the Oscar winner's two children, says a source.
"Jennifer is like an aunt to Louis and Laila," the source tells In Touch. "They adore her and she totally spoils them."
Bullock adopted her son in 2010, when he was a little over 3 ½ months old, People reported. Meanwhile, the outlet noted her daughter joined the family via adoption in 2015 at 2 ½ years old.
"Now that Jennifer has met Jim Curtis and he's become such an important part of her life, he's getting to know Sandra and her kids," adds the source. "They really are like Jen's family and it's important to her that he bonds with them too."

Sandra Bullock has revealed that her two children both made appearances in her latest film, Practical Magic 2.
The Oscar winner, who is typically guarded about her personal life, shared her pride with Access Hollywood.
"They're in the movie but not in an obvious way to you, not in an obvious way," Bullock told the outlet. "And so I can't wait to show them where it is. They don't know where it is."
The Ocean's 8 star said Louis, 16, and Laila, 12, were at the Hollywood premiere of the film with their friends, and that she was "unbelievably proud" of her children.
Bullock, who re-teams with Nicole Kidman in the sequel, continued, "And what's amazing is that something happens when you have kids where you stop being the influence on them, and they become the influence on you."
She then offered rare insight into the pair.

When Katie Taylor leaves the ring on Saturday night, she will have a claim to being the greatest women's boxer in history.
GOAT debates in combat sports are often fruitless — beyond having to compare fighters from different weight classes, different levels of competition and different millennia, we're reliably confused by both recency bias and the glow of nostalgia. We find it hard to ignore charisma and correct for its absence. We're biased, hopelessly so, and there are far too many pitfalls on the landscape. So it is refreshing then, although incredibly rare, for a fighter in the debate to transcend the question altogether.
Is Katie Taylor the greatest?
Maybe. Her staggering amateur career, culminating in Olympic gold in 2012, preceded a professional run that saw her become undisputed champion at two weight classes and dominate the lightweight division for years. She fought the best fighters of her generation, avenged her only loss, and of all her peers in the GOAT debate, she boasts the greatest singular win, defeating Amanda Serrano in an all-time classic firefight at Madison Square Garden in 2022. She went on to defeat Serrano twice more.
Others also have a claim. You might prefer earlier pioneers like Ann Wolfe or Laila Ali, or current multi-weight queen Claressa Shields. There are arguments for all.

Sandra Bullock debuted a new tattoo at the European premiere of Practical Magic 2 on Wednesday, August 26.
The 62-year-old turned heads at London's Odeon Luxe Leicester Square in a stunning leopard-print Givenchy gown designed by Sarah Burton.
The dress featured a structured corset top and an elaborate skirt with a near-waist-high slit, which she paired with layered gold necklaces and feathered black open-toed heels.
The strapless gown exposed Sandra's back, revealing a delicate cursive tattoo on her shoulder that reads "LB²."
The dainty ink, which Sandra has not publicly discussed, appears to be an homage to her two children, son Louis, 16, and daughter Laila, 12, and her late partner Bryan Randall, who died on August 5, 2023 at 57 after a three-year battle with ALS.

Sandra Bullock discussed how much her kids knew ahead of her partner Bryan Randall's death from ALS.
Bullock is mom to Louis, 16, and Laila, 12.
She began dating Randall in 2015, and he was diagnosed with ALS in 2020.
Sandra Bullock says it was no surprise to her kids that her partner, Bryan Randall, was going through a health crisis that eventually led to his August 2023 death from ALS.
They were "completely aware," Bullock said Monday on the SmartLess podcast hosted by Will Arnett, Jason Bateman, and Sean Hayes. "Absolutely aware, because once there is a situation where you're bedridden. We all have to go there. It was in my house, and I did my best to set up whatever I could, and I am lucky in that I had the means to pay for it."

NEW YORK, Aug 11 (Reuters) - AI infrastructure company Alpha Compute has signed a binding term sheet to acquire land and natural gas rights in Pennsylvania for $55 million to develop a 200-megawatt data center campus, CEO Brittany Kaiser told Reuters on Tuesday.
Surging demand for artificial intelligence computing is driving a scramble for power supplies across the United States, prompting data center developers to secure their own energy sources rather than wait for grid connections.
Pennsylvania -- with its abundance of natural gas from the Marcellus shale basin, existing power infrastructure and proximity to major population centers on the East Coast -- has become one of the country's most sought-after locations for new data centers. Last year, Amazon announced $20 billion in planned investment in the state.
Alpha Compute expects the northern Pennsylvania site, which would include gas-fired power generation, to begin operating in the third quarter of 2027, Kaiser said. The facility could eventually be expanded to generate one gigawatt of power, Kaiser added.

Nico Paz and his Argentina side finished the group stage as leaders of Group J after three consecutive wins – the most recent against Jordan. Paz had played in Argentina’s first game as a second-half substitute. He did not feature against Austria. However, in the final game of their season, Lionel Scaloni opted to give minutes to players who had been waiting on the sidelines.
Giovanni Lo Celso opened the scoring, firing a free-kick into the top-left corner after Mohannad Abu Taha had fouled him on the edge of the box. Lautaro Martinez doubled the lead from the spot, sending Yazeed Yazeed Abulaila the wrong way after Nizar Al Rashdan’s high boot caught Senesi. Mousa Tamari pulled one back for Jordan, turning in Ehsan Haddad’s cross. Leo Messi sealed it, curling a free-kick around the wall for his record-extending 19th World Cup goal.
Nico Paz played 61 minutes. He was tidy in possession, completing 50 of 53 passes (94%) and both long **** , with two successful dribbles from five. He won four of nine ground duels and made four recoveries.

Candace Parker has a photo on her desk at her home in Los Angeles from when she won her first WNBA championship with the Sparks in 2016.
Parker is crying, but her daughter Lailaa Williams, who was then 7 years old, is yelling in Parker's ear, "We did it!"
There's no truer statement to describe the relationship between the Lady Vols legend and her daughter, who was born in May 2009 after Parker's historic rookie season in Los Angeles.
"She knows that we win together, we lose together," Parker told Knox News on June 25 at the Greater Knoxville Sports Hall of Fame.
Williams was along for the ride of Parker's incredible professional career – Parker was pregnant with her during the 2008 season she won an Olympic gold medal, WNBA Rookie of the Year and MVP – so it only makes sense that she'll escort Parker during her induction to the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame on June 27 at the Tennessee Theatre.

BEIRUT/JERUSALEM/WASHINGTON, June 19 (Reuters) - Israel and Iran-backed Hezbollah agreed to a ceasefire on Friday, a U.S. official said, after an escalation in hostilities in Lebanon sorely tested the U.S.-Iranian interim deal to end the wider Middle East conflict.
A senior Israeli official and two Hezbollah sources confirmed the ceasefire to Reuters, which the U.S. official said was due to begin at 4 p.m. (1300 GMT)
"If Hezbollah does not attack us, then for us it is not a time of war," the Israeli official said. Israeli forces would remain in southern Lebanon, the official added.
Two Lebanese security sources said Israel carried out a dozen airstrikes in the first hour after the ceasefire came into effect, but none were recorded after 5 p.m.

The accolades keep coming for Caroline Harvey, with the U.S. national team and Wisconsin defender named the International Ice Hockey Federation’s female player of the year.
The honor caps a year in which the 23-year-old Harvey cemented her claim in being her generation’s most accomplished player.
Harvey was the overwhelming favorite in receiving more than 77% of the votes, the IIHF said. She finished ahead of Switzerland forward Alina Muller (9.1%), who scored her second career bronze medal-clinching goal at the Milan Cortina Games in February. Harvey’s U.S. and Badgers teammate Laila Edwards and Canadian captain Marie-Philip Poulin finished third with 4.5% of the votes.
To top it off, the IIHF honor comes the same day Harvey is expected to be selected with the first pick in the PWHL draft being held in Detroit.
From Pelham, New Hampshire, Harvey is the first defender and second American to earn the IIHF honor, joining Hilary Knight, who won the inaugural award in 2023.

At last, Thailand's trans men and masc-of-center lesbians are getting their moment in the sun — or in this case, on the stage. The Tom Thailand 2026 will be the country's first-ever beauty pageant uplifting masc-of-center lesbians, transmasculine people, and trans men.
Organized and owned by Bunnada Thippibal, known in many ******* es as Phi Lek, the pageant isn't just about presentation or suits; contestants will be judged based on their confidence, character, and self-expression. The novel Tom Thailand 2026 pageant was announced on June 15 during a press conference by Calypso Cabaret, trans performance group, at the Asiatique The Riverfront in Bangkok, per TimeOut Thailand.
Though the country is known for its beauty pageants, many of which uplift trans women and kathoey, a pre-colonial transfeminine gender identity specific to Thailand, there has never been such an event focusing on "toms," or masc-of-center lesbians and transmascs. Because Thailand is the only country in Southeast Asia to have never been colonized by European countries, it has preserved its rich history of gender variance. The goal of the show is to put toms and trans men in the public eye, and highlight their excellence.
Joining Phi Lek will be Wilailak Sirisakhon as pageant director, as well as masters for the contest Anant Semathong, also known as Mae Uan Return, Winit Bunchaisri, and Thachai Prathumwan, a musician known as Keng. The competition will be hosted by social media creator Mod X and actor Thanaphol Khiaoorn. The coaching team will include Patitthaya Khwantrakun, Sumonrat and Piyawan Chuentako.

Ralf Rangnick’s Austria answers the call. The Red-White-Red national team began its World Cup campaign with a win — hard-fought but valuable — against Jordan, making its historic first-ever appearance at the World Cup. At the San Francisco Bay Area Stadium, there was no shortage of entertainment, with goals, VAR incidents and disallowed strikes.
The match was unlocked in the early stages thanks to a fine curling right-footed strike from Schmid that gave Jordanian goalkeeper Laila no chance.
Jordan, however, showed it had not made it here by accident and responded at the start of the second half with an even more beautiful — as well as historic — goal.
With this morning’s goal, in fact, Olwan became the first Jordan national team player to score in a World Cup finals match. The move started with Al Rawabdeh winning the ball back in midfield and was carried forward by Olwan’s run. Reaching the edge of the area, he unleashed a stunning curling right-footed effort that kissed the inside of the post and went in. Schlager could do nothing and stood rooted to the spot.

After leading the U.S. Women's Hockey Team to an Olympic gold medal, an NCAA national championship and winning the Patty Kazmaier Award as the top female player in women's NCAA hockey, it appears Wisconsin's Caroline Harvey is going to be at the top of another list soon.
Harvey is expected to be the No. 1 pick in this Wednesday's Professional Women's Hockey League Draft at the Fox Theater in Detroit. Harvey's season was so dominant that she is expected to change the salary structure for the top players in this year's draft.
A few of Harvey's teammates are expected to also walk across the stage early as four Wisconsin players could be chosen in the opening round. Laila Edwards, Kirsten Simms and Lacey Edens are all expected to be chosen by the 10th selection in the draft. Vivian Jungels will likely be selected in the second round.
Other former Wisconsin players eligible to be selected in the draft include McKayla Zilisch, Brette Pettet, Sophie Helgeson and Maddie Posick. Pettet's and Posick's last year was 2022. Helgeson's final season was 2024.
Plover native Alexandria Weiss, who played at Mercyhurst and Syracuse, is also eligible to be drafted. Her last collegiate season was in 2024.
