Comedian and rapper Jacky Oh, real name Jacklyn Smith, died suddenly at 32 years old on May 31 in Miami. Now the Miami-Dade Medical Examiner’s Office has revealed that the MTV “Wild ‘N Out” star’s death was due to complications from cosmetic surgery.
Smith was part of the comedic rap battles show’s cast for five seasons, starting in 2014. She later pivoted to cosmetics, launching a lip gloss line and selling real estate. She was also the long-term partner of another “Wild ‘N Out” cast member, YouTuber DC Young Fly — they first met in 2015.

One of my happiest memories of TV as a child was the Stars In Their Eyes grand final night. The Matthew Kelly years of the show may look rather quaint in an era of spinning chairs, dancing celebrities and X Factor shoutiness, but it was actually ahead of its time as an entertainment format.
From turning Reg the butcher and Barbara from accounts into stars for five minutes, to public phone votes for the winner, it was in many ways a proto-Pop Idol and X Factor.
The key difference between Stars In Their Eyes and what followed was the complete absence of cynicism or profiteering. It probably helped Basil from Basingstoke raise a few more quid with his George Formby covers act, but there was never any pretense that the show would be life-changing.

Celebrity Squares is one of those classic game shows - so we were very excited to hear it was coming back with Warwick Davis as the host! The show starts tonight (September 10), but we couldn't wait that long, so we snuck into the studios in London for a little look at the (very fancy) set. While we were down there, we grabbed Warwick in between filming two episodes and he told us what we need to know about the return of Celebrity Squares...
1. It's not just as simple as noughts and crosses.
"It's quite an exciting and fun game with the blocking... It does get quite intense. There's a lot of money to play for, mystery squares with prizes in. Our final game involves listing things associated with something that celebrity is associated with, so we just had a round with Lucy Pargeter, and the contestant had to name contestants...

Warwick Davis has spoken of his delight at hosting ITV's revival of classic gameshow Celebrity Squares.
The Harry Potter actor, who follows in the footsteps of the late Bob Monkhouse, fronts the celebrity game of noughts and crosses, which kicks off on Wednesday, September 10.
"I grew up watching Celebrity Squares," Davis told The Mirror. "I was delighted and flattered that ITV would have the conviction to ask me to host this iconic show. I think I'm probably the first little person to present a mainstream quiz show, which is nice. I want to put my own stamp on it. I'm slightly cheeky and enjoy improvising banter with the celebrities and contestants."
Ahead of his presenting debut, the 44-year-old confessed that his new role made "learning a script for a big Hollywood film seem easy".

ITV has officially announced that Stars in their Eyes will return.
Harry Hill will host a rebooted version of the musical talent show, which originally ran from 1990 to 2006.
Members of the public will be transformed into popstars by top makeup and wardrobe artists, before impersonating them in a brand new arena.
Hill said: "Without a doubt, appearing on Stars in their Eyes as Morrissey all those years ago (although beaten, unfairly in my view, by Kirsty Young's Peggy Lee) was one of the highlights of my light entertainment career.
"So imagine the smile bought to my lips when I was asked by ITV at a secret breakfast meeting in a top London hotel to take the reigns of this Rolls-Royce of pop-impression talent shows and walk in the footsteps of showbiz giants Crowther, Kelly and Deeley! And on ITV too!

Harry Hill will host a rebooted version of the musical talent show, which originally ran from 1990 to 2006.
Members of the public will be transformed into popstars by top makeup and wardrobe artists, before impersonating them in a brand new arena.
Hill said: "Without a doubt, appearing on Stars in their Eyes as Morrissey all those years ago (although beaten, unfairly in my view, by Kirsty Young's Peggy Lee) was one of the highlights of my light entertainment career.
"So imagine the smile bought to my lips when I was asked by ITV at a secret breakfast meeting in a top London hotel to take the reigns of this Rolls-Royce of pop-impression talent shows and walk in the footsteps of showbiz giants Crowther, Kelly and Deeley! And on ITV too!
"Dust off the wigs and sequins - I'm coming home!

Have you ever wondered what Jet, Wolf, and the rest of ITV's Gladiators did after the show finished? Wonder no more...
ITV’s Gladiators - the show that for eight years made children everywhere become interested in sports, eating well and keeping fit... for about five minutes on a Saturday night, then we all went back to our natural state of sitting on the settee eating sugar straight from the packet.
What was it that inspired this minor surge of enthusiasm for being buff? That would be the gladiators themselves. Every week, twelve superhuman powerhouses - six men and six women - would intimidate, bully, and otherwise humiliate whichever puny contestants stepped up to try their luck, beating or hindering them in a series of physical skill games. This took place before the big finale – where the contenders would race each other up a downwards escalator, while the gladiators were...

The dwarf actor will mark his first presenting role in a reboot of the classic game show - which has spent more than 15 years off-air - despite having no previous experience of presenting.

A source told The Sun newspaper: ''Warwick is obviously a leftfield choice as he's not a tried and tested TV host. But he is an extremely...

Warwick Davis has reportedly signed up to host a new edition of Celebrity Squares.
The Life's Too Short actor is said to have agreed a deal to host a revamped version of the classic game show on ITV, according to The Sun.
If he were to join the project, it will be Davis's first ever presenting role, and will see the return of the series after over 15 years.
Celebrity Squares is based on the American comedy game show Hollywood Squares, and originally ran from 1975 to 1979 with Bob Monkhouse as host.
Monkhouse returned to front a new series from 1993 to 1996.
The game features nine celebrities sitting in boxes around a giant board, and is based around the game of noughts and crosses.
