'Goodnight Boobs': Shane Gillis roasts Bill Belichick reads raunchy bedtime stories to 24-year-old girlfriend at ESPYs
The ESPYs crowd thought they were in for a few sports jokes and some playful jabs. Then Shane Gillis grabbed the mic, and things took a wild turn. In what's already being called the boldest moment of the night, Gillis fired off a roast aimed squarely at Bill Belichick and yeah, it was about his much-younger girlfriend.
The punchline? Children's books turned into risqué bedtime reads. And Twitter has not stopped talking about it since.
Shane Gillis delivers a raunchy roast about Bill Belichick and his 24-year-old girlfriend
While most ESPYs hosts play it safe, Gillis? Not even close. He dove headfirst into the Bill Belichick-Jordon Hudson relationship drama, joking about what the couple reads before bed:
'A bookie is what Bill Belichick reads to his girlfriend before bedtime… They do The Very Horny Caterpillar, The Little Engine That Could But Needed a Pill First, and of course Good Night Boobs.'
The line dropped like a bomb. The crowd let out a mix of gasps, laughs, and stunned silence. Gillis, of course, stood there grinning like he'd just pulled off the roast of the year. And honestly? He kind of did.
The relationship already had people talking and this joke added gasoline to the fire
Belichick, 73, started dating Jordon Hudson, 24, and the headlines haven't stopped since. Whether it's their public outings or the nearly 50-year age gap, people haven't been shy about offering opinions. Hudson, a former cheerleader and beauty pageant contestant, reportedly bonded with Belichick over philosophy books.
That's right, philosophy.
Naturally, the internet was quick to call it out, meme it, and dissect every photo. So when Gillis brought it up on ESPN's biggest night, he was poking at a controversy that was already simmering.
Disney let this air? Gillis got away with it on ESPN
The ESPYs air on ABC—a Disney-owned network. So when Shane Gillis dropped jokes that sounded more like they belonged in a Netflix special than primetime sports TV, fans were stunned. Think
Ricky Gervais
at the Golden Globes but way more 'Did he really just say that?!'
For a show that usually leans inspirational, Gillis brought pure chaos. And that bedtime story bit? Easily the most talked-about line of the night.
And let's be real:
The Little Engine That Could But Needed a Pill First
? That line alone deserves its own award.

As Ranbir Kapoor reveals he doesn't like getting wet, netizens ask: ‘Nahata hai ki nahi fir?'
We've all got pet peeves — getting sand between the toes, leaving the toilet seat up, different foods mixing on the plate — some particularly annoying habits leave us bothered beyond reason. Ranbir Kapoor is no different, and in a recent interview, he shared that he absolutely hates getting wet. 'There are so many films I have rejected because there were underwater scenes, or there were a lot of scenes in the rain. I just don't like getting wet. I don't know why or what's wrong. Even if I wash my hair, I have to immediately dry it,' the Tu Jhoothi Main Makkar actor told Mashable India. Speculations ran amok, with netizens trying to guess the reasoning behind Kapoor's pet peeve. From 'Nahata hai ki nahi fir?' to 'Could be because he is bald and if he goes in the water it will expose his baldness', witty barbs crowded the comment section of the Instagram post. Curious, we reached out to an expert to try to understand the science behind this behaviour: Sakshi Bahmani, a natural language processing (NLP) Expert, told that while it might seem quirky or even irrational, Ranbir Kapoor's aversion to being wet isn't just a random dislike—it could be a deeply wired sensory or psychological boundary. Let's unpack that: 1. His body might just be wired differently – Some people have heightened sensory processing sensitivity—their nervous system reacts more strongly to certain physical sensations. Wet clothes clinging to the skin, water trickling down the body—what others may dismiss as mildly annoying, their brain processes as deeply uncomfortable. For Ranbir, the experience of being wet might trigger a visceral 'nope' before logic even enters the picture. 2. Early conditioning can leave lasting traces – Sometimes, we carry aversions shaped by moments we barely remember. Maybe it was a fall in the shower, a scolding after getting soaked, or just an early discomfort in water that never entirely left. Over time, these micro-moments form a subconscious script: 'Wet equals unsafe or wrong.' 3. It could be about control, not just comfort – Being wet often means being out of control—dripping, sticky, cold, unpredictable. On a film set, that discomfort gets prolonged, repeated, and amplified. For someone who values bodily autonomy or stability, this loss of control can feel like a forced surrender. And some people simply don't tolerate that well. 'Only if it's causing distress or limiting life,' said Brahmani. According to her, there are ways to gradually rewire the response—exposure therapy, sensory retraining, cognitive reframing. But here's the thing: not every discomfort is a disorder. 'If it's not disrupting relationships or career (and clearly, Ranbir's doing just fine), then maybe it doesn't need to be solved. Just respected. Its almost like his body says 'no thanks.' And he's not fighting it. That's not dysfunction—it's self-awareness,' she said.

"You Can't Talk Like That": Umpire Kumar Dharmasena In Heated Chat With KL Rahul. Reason Is...
Indian cricket team batter KL Rahul got into a heated conversation with on-field umpire Kumar Dharmasena during Day 2 of the fifth Test match against England at The Oval on Friday. The incident took place following a war of words between England batter Joe Root and India pacer Prasidh Krishna. Dharmasena wanted the argument to end when Rahul stepped in to support his teammate. Rahul asked the umpire if he wanted India to just bat and bowl without showing any emotion on the field. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Star Sports India (@starsportsindia) Here's a look at the complete conversation between KL Rahul and Kumar Dharmasena - Rahul: What do you want us to do? Be quiet? Dharmasena: You will like any bowler to come and walk to you? No, you can't do that. No, Rahul, we should not go on that way. Rahul: What do you want us to do? Just bat and bowl and go home? Dharmasena: We will discuss at the end of the match. You can't talk like that. Coming to the match, Yashasvi Jaiswal's unbeaten 51 took India to 75/2 at stumps on the second day of the fifth Test against England, with a lead of 52 runs on Friday. India lost opener KL Rahul (7) and Sai Sudharsan (11) but conveniently erased a 23-run first innings deficit, largely due to Jaiswal's positive approach with the bat. Rahul was removed by Josh Tongue while Gus Atkinson accounted for Sudharsan. Jaiswal was accompanied by night watchman Akash Deep (4 not out) when the stumps were drawn. Earlier, England replied with 247 against India's 224 in the first essay, taking a slender lead. Prasidh Krishna and Mohammed Siraj led a brilliant fightback for India by picking four wickets apiece as the visitors kept England's lead down to 23 runs.
