If you’re enchanted by Rome and want to come back, legend has it you’ll get your wish if you throw a coin backward into the Trevi Fountain, using your right arm over your left shoulder. Well that appears to be paying off for the fountain, NBC News reports, where nearly $1.5 million in change was thrown last year, according to the Italian charity that receives all coins, and anything else, chucked into its waters. “The [city] council hands over to us bags full of coins thrown into the fountain,” said Alberto Colajacomo, spokesman for Catholic nonprofit Caritas. The money gets reinvested into charitable initiatives.
“Bad butt” injections defendant Corey Eubank was filming a segment for a show on plastic surgery Wednesday night when an audience member attacked him, a Telemundo producer told NBC Miami.
Attending the taping of the Telemundo show “Cristina” in Doral were Eubank and some of the alleged victims of him and Oneal Ron Morris, who are accused of injecting Fix-a-Flat, cement and superglue into women’s buttocks.
As the situation got heated, someone from the audience hit Eubanks’ forehead with an object, the producer said.
Eubank, 40, and Morris, 30, have pleaded not guilty to practicing medicine without a license and are due to return to court in April.
