Ranchi: Former Indian cricket captain
Mahendra Singh Dhoni
is likely to become the brand ambassador of Jharkhand tourism. The state govt has approached the global cricket icon to take up the role. However, a confirmation is awaited from his side.
If the deal is inked, local boy Dhoni will become the first ambassador of state's tourism ever since Jharkhand was carved out of Bihar in the year 2000.
The development came to light after Dhoni met state tourism minister Sudivya Kumar at his govt bungalow in the city on Saturday. Department officials said the discussion revolved around giving a strategic push to sports and tourism infrastructure in Jharkhand with Dhoni's active involvement.
Tourism secretary Manoj Kumar on Saturday said a MoU is awaited from Dhoni's side. "Once we get his full consent, we will assess the legal formalities and proceed to designate him as brand ambassador. The idea is that he would promote key destinations through digital campaigns, videos, or social media posts. As of now, it's all conceptual, but if it materialises, it could be a turning point in our efforts to publicise Jharkhand's tourism offerings," Kumar said.

"Dhoni was approached earlier as well but his consent never came through. This time, a courtesy meeting happened, and we're hopeful," Kumar added.
"Dhoni's connection to Jharkhand is deep and emotional. We are confident that his support can lend a new direction to our efforts. With his experience and reach, Jharkhand can emerge as a premier destination for sports tourism and natural retreats," said Sudivya after the meeting. Dhoni reportedly expressed his willingness to contribute to the state's development in these sectors and assured the government of his support going forward.

'Stung your a**': Channing Crowder torches Hallie Aiono, accuses her of using pregnancy to scam NFL star Puka Nacua

Channing Crowder torches Hallie Aiono (Image via Bleacher Report) In a jaw-dropping segment from The Pivot Podcast, former NFL linebacker Channing Crowder tore into Hallie Aiono, the pregnant girlfriend of Los Angeles Rams star Puka Nacua, following her paternity petition filed in Los Angeles County last month. The 18-year-old wide receiver, known for his breakout rookie season, now finds himself in the middle of a growing controversy that extends far beyond the football field. Hallie Aiono files for full physical custody amid paternity questions Hallie Aiono, who began dating Nacua during his college days at BYU, filed a paternity suit on June 16, requesting legal confirmation of Nacua's paternity, full physical custody of their unborn son, and shared legal custody covering education, healthcare, and financial expenses. This follows her emotional Mother's Day Instagram post, in which she wrote, 'You were something we always dreamt of, but I have never been so afraid... I can't wait to love you forever, my sweet boy.' The story took a turn after Crowder made his views clear, casting serious doubt on Aiono's intentions and character during Saturday's podcast episode. Channing Crowder doesn't hold back, calls the situation a 'spider's web' Crowder held nothing back as he speculated on Aiono's behavior and what it could have meant for Nacua's future. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like An engineer reveals: One simple trick to get internet without a subscription Techno Mag Learn More Undo He even suggested that the Rams receiver was fortunate to escape long-term financial entanglement. 'Congratulations, brother. You got out the spider's web before it stung your ass,' Crowder said. 'She helped him out with this... You don't even know who was skating in you and when you got skated in.' According to Crowder, the situation saved Nacua from potentially paying child support for 18 years. 'This was great for him. Think about it. 18 years. If he had paid for this baby and did all this—18 years. 18 years,' he emphasized. Crowder also brought cultural context into the conversation, highlighting Polynesian values of family loyalty and the pressure Nacua might have felt to stay with Aiono had he believed the child was his.

'If you were in it for the money, you had one job,' Clark said. 'Y'all were together all over the NFL sites... The one job you had was to not have sex with somebody else... and you couldn't wait.'

"Onlyfans leaks would be fire": Joy Taylor gets axed by Fox Sports and fans already know her future career move

Fox Sports cuts ties with Joy Taylor (Instagram) In a stunning development that's shaking up FS1's on-air lineup, Joy Taylor has officially parted ways with Fox Sports. The move comes as the network embarks on a widespread reshuffle, axing multiple shows—including Speak, which Taylor co-hosted. Her exit also closely follows a months-long legal controversy involving allegations made against a former Fox Sports executive and Taylor's name surfacing in the lawsuit. While Taylor's departure was reportedly tied to the expiration of her contract, the timing has raised eyebrows across the industry. A sudden exit amid legal turmoil and programming shakeup Taylor had been a key presence on Speak since 2022, sharing the desk with former NFL star Keyshawn Johnson and ex-NBA player Paul Pierce. But the show, along with Breakfast Ball and The Facility, is now being scrapped as part of Fox Sports' latest cost-cutting and content realignment strategy. The Athletic first broke the news, revealing Taylor's contract would not be renewed. The exit comes just months after serious allegations from a former Fox Sports hairstylist, Noushin Faraji, rocked the network. Faraji accused then-Fox Sports executive Charlie Dixon of groping her during a party held for Taylor in 2017. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like An engineer reveals: One simple trick to get internet without a subscription Techno Mag Learn More Undo In a troubling twist, Faraji also claimed Taylor dismissed her accusation and was allegedly involved in an extramarital affair with Dixon—an affair Faraji claimed contributed to Taylor's rise to her former Undisputed moderator role. Additionally, Taylor was accused of mocking Faraji's accent and her PTSD-related behaviors. Taylor firmly rejected the claims, with a spokeswoman stating, 'The claims set forth against Ms. Taylor are devoid of merit and appear to have been strategically framed to create unwarranted publicity rather than to seek legitimate redress.' Despite the public stir, Taylor kept her composure, opting for measured statements. 'I know that the public has a lot of interest in this situation,' she told The Cut. 'But I have to let the legal process play out. ' After a brief two-week absence from air earlier this year, Taylor returned, fueling speculation about internal deliberations over her contract. A report from Front Office Sports had earlier mentioned her deal was due to expire this summer, which now appears to have marked her quiet exit. Fans think her next career is already known The Internet is going crazy after her exit. Users have come up with different thoughts but a major portion of them already let others know what they think of about her future career. One user @coldcallsniper commented, "Incoming OF." A second one having username @Jerryjo58719446 added, "Joy taylor onlyfans leaks would be fire." Another named @0usports echoed the same by saying, "She can take her career to onlyfans now." Joy Taylor becomes the center of internet discussion (Image via X) In recent months, Taylor had become more outspoken beyond sports commentary. On her Two Personal Show, she made headlines by suggesting the legalization of sex work as a remedy for male loneliness. On The Truth After Dark podcast, she remarked that religious men were a dating red flag for her—despite identifying as a 'person of faith' herself. These bold views have both intrigued and polarized her fan base, marking a noticeable shift in her public persona. As Fox Sports closes a chapter, the media landscape is now watching to see where Joy Taylor lands next—and whether the controversies surrounding her will fade or follow her forward.
