Trump rally in New York draws huge crowd, Timothée Chalamet surprises fans in viral look-alike contest, actor David Harris dies at 75

Former President Donald Trump holds a rally in New York at MSG, filling the venue almost completely. With just 8 days left until the 2024 presidential election, the former president is ramping up efforts to conquer his hometown. The Trump campaign held a large rally in New York on Sunday, with capacity reportedly reaching nearly 20,000 people. The NYPD also said thousands of other people were turned away when doors were locked at 4:30 p.m., half an hour before the event began. Speakers at the rally included vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Elon Musk, former first lady Melania Trump, TV host Dr. Phil, comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, professional wrestler Hulk Hogan and many others. Timothée Chalamet failed a viral look-alike contest in New York, surprising fans. The event, which drew hundreds of people to New York’s Washington Square Park on Sunday, has gained attention on social media over the past month after flyers with an RSVP QR code and the promise of a $50 grand prize were scattered around the city. The star, who was recently spotted in the city filming upcoming A24 film Marty Supreme, made a surprise appearance before the crowd was dispersed by police. The contest was hosted by YouTube personality Anthony Poe and resulted in a $500 fine from the NYPD due to lack of proper permits and one arrest. Despite the intervention of law enforcement agencies, the winner was still crowned. Actor David Harris, best known for his role in the film The Warriors, has died at the age of 75. The actor, who played Cochise in the 1979 cult classic, died Friday at his home in New York after a battle with cancer. His death was confirmed by his daughter Davina Harris in a statement to the New York Times. Along with his starring role in The Warriors, Harris appeared in a variety of other films, including 1980’s Brubaker, 1986’s Quicksilver and 1987’s Fatal Beauty, as well as television shows such as Law & Order: Special Victims Unit,” “NYPD Blue,” and “NYPD Blue.” and MacGyver.
