The search for Nancy Guthrie is hitting new extremes ... members of the public are now crowdsourcing crypto, with one "concerned citizen" launching a GoFundMe to help bring her home.

The page, started by Tucson, Arizona native Shawn Breeden and titled "Help Find Nancy Guthrie," says the plan is to funnel donations straight to the Guthrie family so they can buy bitcoin ... hoping it’ll help pay for info about Nancy’s whereabouts.

As we reported, TMZ received an email Wednesday demanding 1 bitcoin in exchange for the alleged kidnapper’s identity. That’s no small ask -- a single bitcoin is currently worth about $65,000.

Newly crowned Miss Universe Fátima Bosch Fernández experienced a sudden collapse in front of a crowd of thousands Sunday ... giving attendees at the Fruit and Flower Festival in Ecuador quite the scare.

As Fátima was enjoying her moment, waving and blowing kisses to the crowd, her energy quickly seemed to shift as she struggled to stand ... suddenly falling to her knees.

Watch the video ... officials working the event immediately jumped in to attend to the Mexican model, who was crowned Miss Universe 2025 in November. She was later attended to by paramedics at the scene, and she was relieved of her duties for the day to undergo tests.

The Miss Universe Organization and Fátima herself have yet to address the cause of the alarming drop ... but she handled the situation ever so elegantly like the royalty she is.

Barack Obama sent the internet into a frenzy after saying aliens are real during a recent podcast appearance ... but now the former prez is walking it back, saying he's never seen any evidence of extraterrestrials while in office.

ICYMI ... 44 sat down with Bryan Tyler Cohen, who asked him point blank whether aliens are real. Obama replied, "They’re real, but I haven’t seen them," before joking they're not being kept at Area 51 -- adding there's no underground facility ... unless there was some "enormous conspiracy" being kept from him.

Obama's comments spread like wildfire ... leading to him issuing a follow-up statement softening any definitive claim. He explains, "I was trying to stick with the spirit of the speed round, but since it’s gotten attention, let me clarify. Statistically, the universe is so vast that the odds are good there’s life out there."

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos isn't taking any crap from people criticizing how he and his investigators are handling the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping.

On Sunday, Nanos was interviewed by a Daily Mail reporter about the case and, at one point, their convo turned to the sheriff's critics, who have slammed him and his detectives for allegedly packing up and leaving the crime scene early.

But Nanos stood his ground, insisting his officers thoroughly investigated Guthrie's property and he feels confident they did their job properly before the FBI swooped in and did another sweep.

The sheriff noted, "My officers were there for almost 20 hours, and they processed their scene, got it done, and brought in all the evidence." Nanos then said the FBI came in and "did their thing."

The couple were spotted at chef Nancy Silverton and TV producer Phil Rosenthal's insanely popular diner on Sunday, where the wait times are routinely said to be 4 to 5 hours long!

'TODAY' show anchor Savannah Guthrie is begging her mom Nancy's kidnapper to bring her home in a new video where she urges whoever took her that it's "never too late to do the right thing."

In the new clip, Savannah delivers an emotional plea in a direct-to-camera address, saying, "We still have hope and we still believe."

She added ... "To whoever has her or knows where she is ... It's never too late and you're not lost or alone, and it is never too late to do the right thing."

Bianca Censori could be taking the witness stand soon ... at least if a former Kanye West employee gets his way.

According to new court documents, obtained by TMZ, Tony Saxon -- the ex-project manager suing Kanye over the chaotic Malibu mansion remodel -- says he's calling Bianca to testify in the upcoming trial, currently set for February 21.

It's unclear what specific testimony he believes she can provide, but she's now potentially being lined up as a witness in the case.

As we previously reported ... Saxon sued Kanye, claiming he was hired in September 2021 as project manager, caretaker and 24/7 security for Kanye's Malibu property. In the lawsuit, Saxon alleges he worked brutal 16 hour days and was forced to sleep on the floor using a coat as makeshift bedding while overseeing the remodel.

Saxon claims things spiraled in November 2021 when Kanye allegedly demanded he remove all the home's windows and electricity. According to the suit, Saxon raised safety concerns, warning the moves posed "extreme danger," especially after Kanye allegedly insisted on bringing large generators inside something Saxon feared could spark a fire hazard.

He also claims Kanye threatened him, saying he'd be considered "an enemy" if he didn't comply, and told him, "If you don't do what I say, you're not going to work for me." Saxon says he refused and was fired on the spot.

Tony's suing for unpaid wages and labor code violations and potentially dragging Bianca into the courtroom drama.

Kanye has denied all allegations. In a November 2023 filing, his attorney argued that even if Saxon suffered damages -- which Kanye does not admit -- they were caused by other parties, not Kanye, and any liability should be reduced accordingly. Kanye also claimed Saxon performed work without his knowledge and asked the court to toss the lawsuit entirely.

Former President Barack Obama made his first public appearance since the viral video President Trump posted, depicting Barack and former First Lady Michelle Obama as apes -- sitting courtside at the NBA All-star game Sunday.

It's good to see the 44th President of the United States enjoying himself, because he's been dealing with some B.S. lately.

Just days ago, he was responding to a video that depicted him and his wife as apes, which was later shared by President Donald Trump.

During an interview with Brian Tyler Cohen, Barack referred to both the social media posts and the administration's public behaviors as a "clown show" ... and he lamented the loss of "decorum" and "propriety" as it relates to the highest office in the land.

President Trump passed the blame onto an unnamed White House staffer ... and, he said he wouldn't apologize for the gaffe.

He not only showed up to the game, but came up clutch ... snagging a loose ball that came barreling straight for him on the sidelines!!!

Watch the video ... Barack is just hanging out with his wife Michelle, when the rock comes out of nowhere, almost hitting them ... but Barack's no stranger to the basketball court as he quickly catching the stray ball as it comes right at the former White House residents.

Talk about calm under pressure!

The public show of devotion comes amid ongoing tension within the Beckham family. While Brooklyn didn't reference the family feud directly, the vow to "protect" Nicola has plenty online speculating it's more than just flowery holiday language.

As you know, there's been a strain between Brooklyn and Nicola's famous parents, David and Victoria Beckham. Brooklyn alleged tensions boiled over at his wedding, claiming Victoria interrupted a planned moment when Marc Anthony was serenading the newlyweds.
