‘Narcos: Mexico' renewed for season 2

As Kiki garners intelligence on Félix and becomes more entangled in his mission, a tragic chain of events unfold, affecting the drug trade and the war against it for years to come.

Piers Morgan blasts Jesy Nelson for her tattoo
Journalist Piers Morgan has criticised Little Mixs singer Jesy Nelson for getting a gun tattoo.
On Tuesday, Nelson posted a photograph of a new tattoo next to her ear and a tattoo of a small gun on her ribcage in an Instagram post and captioned it thanking the tattooist for "always giving her favourite little tattoos", reports of media.
But her post did not go well with The Good Morning Britain presenter as he slammed Nelson, saying she is supposed to be a "role model to millions of impressionable young girls".
"Anyway Jesy this great role model to millions of influential young women, who wants to empower them, she has had a new tattoo put on herself and she posted last night.
"It's a gun, it's a gun on the right side of her backside. Erm, it's a gun," he said.
Morgan also explained why having "gun" as a tattoo is a bad idea.
He said, "It's a gun, isn't that great as gun crime in this country begins to tick up as gun crime in other countries like America rages.
"So many people are getting shot to pieces and of course, the best thing for a young woman to do as a role model to millions of impressionable young girls is to tattoo a gun to her backside. And people wonder why I call these girls, Little Mix, irresponsible or stupid."
In some way, it's connected to him: R. Kelly's wife on gun threat
R. Kelly’s former wife and choreographer Drea Kelly says a gun threat that caused an evacuation at a New York City screening for Lifetimes upcoming documentary series Surviving R. Kelly was connected to the singer.
In an interview to variety.com, Drea said, "I can't speak to what he would or would not do because I don't know what his mindset is right now. But I would say that I don't believe in happenstance, I don't believe that anything is a coincidence.
"I do believe that in some shape, form or fashion it is connected to him. Now, whether he orchestrated it or not, that I cannot say. But I just do not believe in coincidences. Of all the theaters, of all the nights, of all the premiers, it happened with us."
The evacuation took place followed by the screening, in which the seven accusers featured in the film were to speak about their experiences with the singer, who has been accused of sexual misconduct multiple times over the past 20 years.
The venue received two anonymous, threatening calls in which the caller claimed someone had a gun in the theater; the calls were routed to local police, who suggested the evacuation.
Among the seven accusers was Drea, who has earlier claimed that Kelly beat and bound her, among other abuses, during their 10 years of marriage. The couple separated in 2005.
