Cringeworthy moment NFL star dodges handsy fan as she makes inappropriate move in public
Cincinnati Bengals star Ja'Marr Chase was the subject of a cringeworthy moment over the weekend in New York City as he slid away from a woman's hug while leaving a nightclub.
In the early hours of Sunday morning, Chase walked out of Manhattan hotspot Zero Bond to much fanfare. The wide receiver tried to find his car, a black SUV, with plenty parked along the street.
The unidentified woman was standing in between Chase and his ride away from the club in a skin-tight outfit, feet from where the wide receiver had just dapped up another person.
The woman goes to hug Chase and gets her right arm around him, while he does not make contact with her and keeps walking without stopping, per TMZ.
Chase then finds his car and gets in on the side of the street where people are not recording with their phones, as two other females get in before the drive away.
Back on the street in Manhattan's NoHo neighborhood outside Zero Bond, the woman stares back at Chase upset that he did not show her affection in return with a mean look on her face.
The woman responded on TikTok to her attempted hug of Chase, saying the pair do have a history together.
'Dang, I can't hug a old friend in NYC,' the woman captioned the video.
By the comments on the video, at least one person is not buying that they are just friends.
'Sista the face you made now you know he's not just a friend,' one TikTok commenter said.
'Bro the way she made that face and walked off was like a scene out of a rom-com,' another person stated.
Chase has plenty of attention on him these days as one of the elite wideouts in football, who recently got paid to cement his top-tier status.
This offseason, Chase signed a 4-year, $161million contract with $112million guaranteed, making him the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL by annual salary.
The Bengals have now locked in their offensive core for years to come alongside fellow wide receiver Tee Higgins and quarterback Joe Burrow.

Kneecap responds to 'legend' who streamed their Glastonbury set
The Irish rap trio played to a packed-out crowd on the West Holts stage in Glastonbury on Saturday after festival organisers had to close access to the area over fears of overcrowding. However, hours before the group was due to take the stage, the BBC announced that they would not live stream their performance and instead would upload an on-demand version later on Saturday. The BBC's decision to omit Kneecap's performance from its live coverage prompted one festival goer to take matters into her own hands, as Helen Wilson live-streamed the set in its entirety on TikTok. READ MORE: Scottish refugee charity 'won't shut up, it will show up', says founder Wilson's stream amassed more than two million likes from those watching at home and even reportedly burned her fingers after holding up her phone for the hour-long show. Replying to a clip shared on her TikTok, Kneecap said: 'Helen you're a legend ! Tickets to any show just giz a shout! Grma.' Wilson, who was shocked at the band's comment on her live video, replied: 'I cannot believe this. 'Thank you so much for everything you do and stand for.' #Glastonbury2025 #Glasto Helen Wilson held her phone in air for one hour to live stream to break the BBC censorship of kneecap performance What a legend and big thank you Helen censorship from a government of starmer has no place in a democratic society — Mairtín (@Martin_BELFast) June 28, 2025 Wilson was also thanked by Kneecap fans across the internet branding her a 'true hero', with one person saying on X/Twitter: 'Honestly Helen was amazing!!! 'She has battery issues, her arms hurt, her phone kept getting too warm, but SHE BLOODY POWERED THROUGH! Peoples princess Helen!!' During the performance, Kneecap led the crowd in chants of "Free Palestine" along with joking that the "BBC editor is gonna have some job". Adding: 'Sometimes we feel helpless, sometimes we feel like we're not doing enough, and that's probably true sometimes. 'But the difference it makes to people in Palestine, when they see people from the other side of the world, to see this many people.' Mo Chara also declared to the crowd, 'Glastonbury, I'm a free man!' after recently being charged under the UK Terrorism Act. His comments come after he, real name Liam Og O hAnnaidh, 27, was charged with allegedly displaying a flag in support of proscribed terrorist organisation Hezbollah, while saying 'up Hamas, up Hezbollah' at a gig in November last year. The rapper, who performs under the stage name Mo Chara, was cheered by hundreds of supporters as he arrived with bandmates Naoise O Caireallain and JJ O Dochartaigh at Westminster Magistrates' Court in Free Mo Chara T-shirts. He was released on unconditional bail until his next hearing at the same court on August 20. Following the trio's performance on Saturday, police said they are assessing videos of comments made by Kneecap and Bob Vylan. Rapper Bobby Vylan, of rap punk duo Bob Vylan, led crowds on the festival's West Holts Stage in chants of: 'Free, free Palestine' and: 'Death, death to the IDF'. It has been reported that police are looking into Kneecap's performance after a member of the Irish rap trio suggested fans 'start a riot' outside his bandmate's upcoming court appearance.

On Saturday, the 28-year-old marketing manager was spotted getting up close and personal with tattooed TikTok heartthrob Tyson Fievez during a wild night out in Melbourne and fans can't stop talking about it Speaking to Daily Mail Australia after their surprise reunion, Tyson finally broke his silence on why he bailed on their original meeting during filming - and it seems there are no hard feelings between them. 'She's an amazing chick, with a bubbly energy! Definitely a vibe to be around,' Tyson gushed. 'Honestly I had no bad intentions standing her up first time round. Just didn't wanna intrude on her previous marriage with David,' he explained. 'Guess you'll have too wait and see if romance develops!' he added with a wink. Fans were quick to flood social media with support for the unlikely duo, with many now shipping them as a post-show couple. 'They actually look so cute together,' one person commented. 'She dodged a bullet with Dave – this is the match we were robbed of!' another declared. Jamie was left visibly disappointed on-air after being ghosted during the 'most f**ked up challenge' of the season, as she waited alone at a Sydney restaurant with a glass of white wine. The popular bride was left humiliated after she bravely agreed to meet her alternative match - only to be left hanging when her 'Plan B' ghosted her at the last second. In a light-hearted yet emotional moment, Jamie told producers: 'I'm a nosey b***h, I love to know these things… So curious!' 'I had more than one match? I'm actually surprised there was one match. Now, there's more? I'm unmatchable!' Later that evening, when her TV husband Dave returned, Jamie confessed she had accepted the challenge - only to be stood up 'for the first time ever'. Dave, who had declined his own offer to meet a potential second match, was surprisingly supportive. 'We're in a marriage here. I trust her… but I'm glad she got stood up,' he laughed in a vox pop.

I'm a Canadian living in the UK - these are the common British sayings I find hilarious
A Canadian man living in the UK has revealed the common British sayings that he finds amusing. Matt Giffen, 29, moved to London last year after relocating from his home country with his girlfriend, influencer Summer Fox. Matt, who is also a TikToker and has 340,000 followers on the platform, has since documented himself trying out everything the British capital has to offer - from sampling a roast dinner to visiting Big Ben and other landmarks in the city. Now, in his latest installment of analysing the nuances of British culture, the TikToker has revealed his top list of hilarious sayings - many of which wouldn't bat a Brit's eyelid. Introducing his line up of comedic phrases, he began with 'a few sandwiches short of a picnic', a phrase typically used to denote a person who is lacking in intelligence. 'First up, a few sandwiches short of a picnic. I've been seeing this comment a lot on my videos recently,' he said in the clip. 'They'll say he's so jokes but also a few sandwiches short of a picnic. What do you mean by that? Because I feel like you don't want to be a few sandwiches short of a picnic.' Matt then moved onto the second on his list. 'Number two, like butter wouldn't melt - I've never heard this in my life until my girlfriend said it yesterday. 'She showed me a picture of this girl she went to school with and said she used to be the biggest bully of all time and now she's like 'butter wouldn't melt'.' Matt admitted that he initially believed this meant that she was 'untouchable or something', but soon realised it's true meaning, which most Brits understand to be that someone can look innocent but be the opposite in reality. 'I probably won't be using that one in my vocabulary ever, that one sucks,' he laughed. Third on the list was a phrase often used by Brits to describe feeling hungry - or 'Hank Marvin' as the slang goes. The TikToker recalled first hearing it at a friends house and being completely dumbfounded by it's meaning. 'I was at my buddy's house the other day and his roommate walked in the room and was like 'Mate, I'm Hank Marvin', and I thought, I could have sworn his name was Tom. And then it came out that it just means that you're hungry and starving,' he said. Lastly, the Canadian content creator shared his fourth phrase, which was 'The dog's b******'. Matt said: 'This a classic, all time legendary geezer quote that I hear almost every time in the pub, I'm not even kidding.' 'I think it just means, the dog's balls - I don't know why that's a good thing but that is definitely one that I will be saying myself.' According to Cambridge Dictionary, the phrase is used for something that is 'extremely good', and signifies a compliment. It's the second in a series of videos where Matt has shared the British slang 'that makes me laugh'. A previous video in the series revealed an additional selection of Matt's favourite British slang words or phrases. Those included the phrase 'f***y's your aunt', which Brits used to signify something that's straightforward or simple to understand. He also recalled hearing someone be described as a 'daft cow', which he said 'it's safe to assume you do not want to be a daft cow'. Commenters were in stitches after watching the video, with several adding classic British idioms that would likely leave a foreigner stumped. One of those was 'as useful as a chocolate teapot or chocolate fire guard'. Another pointed to 'water off a duck's back', another popular slang phrase. Having lived in the UK for a year, Matt has several times shared his thoughts on the differences between British and Canadian lifestyles. In one video, he revealed the things he most dislikes about living in the country. Commenters were in stitches after watching the video, with several adding classic British idioms that would likely leave a foreigner stumped 'As a Canadian in the UK, these are the things I dislike about living in London,' Matt said, in a video that racked up more than 500,000 views on TikTok. The first thing on Matt's list is that, in his opinion, there's 'not a very warm culture' in the UK, adding 'and that's just the truth'. He said that conversations just consist of people asking 'you alright?' and answering 'yeah okay'. Matt said: 'As a Canadian, personally, that is a big struggle for me. I'm used to walking to the park and smiling at people. I did that once, and a guy told me to "sod off".' His second reason was perhaps unsurprising, as he lamented that the 'weather here sucks'. After enjoying a couple of days of springtime sunshine, Matt said he'd begun to look forward to the summer after experiencing a chilly winter. But his girlfriend, who is British, soon stopped him in his tracks to explain that's 'not how it works here.' Next up was Matt's 'constant anxiety' about getting his phone stolen while out walking anywhere in London. As an influencer, he explained, it is his job to 'wander around the city aimlessly and wave my phone around'. He joked: 'Do you not think that phone thieves are licking their f***ing chops when they see Matt walking down a street in London?' He also explained he'd had difficulty grasping just how 'huge' the city actually is, saying that it takes him over an hour and a half to see some of his friends - despite them living in the same city.
