Real and spectacular? Paige Spiranac opens up about enhancements

While Paige Spiranac is spectacular, she admitted that “not everything (about her) is real.”

A new study has found that golfing, gardening, yard work, woodworking and hunting have all been linked to developing ALS.

South Korean actress Jeon Jong-seo leaves jaws dropped in Dodgers dugout

The Los Angeles Dodgers have their fair share of superstars on the roster, but being they are located so close to Hollywood, they also get a lot of famous fans in the stadium to watch their games.

So when the team was recently in South Korea for an exhibition game, you’d think they would be fine watching beautiful actress Jeon Jong-seo throw the first pitch before their game against the Kiwoom Heroes.

Um, not exactly.

As the 29-year-old film star stood on the mound to throw out the ceremonial offering, many members of the Dodgers were shown sitting on the top of the dugout, taking it in, Bilicki reported.

There was no hiding their fascination and admiration, however. The boys in blue appeared to be smitten kittens. If it was a Tom and Jerry episode, the heart eyes would have been popping out their heads.
