Model Kendall Jenner, 30, addressed internet rumors about her sexuality during the January 9 episode of the In Your Dreams podcast, clarifying longstanding speculation. "I think there's this whole narrative that I'm hiding this thing," Jenner explained. "You want to know what really bothers me? How mean people are about it. It's not with a welcoming arm. It's not kind. It's very mean." Jenner said she's seen comments suggesting certain things would be "bad for business," which she doesn't understand. "As of today, I am not," she stated. "I don't think I will be, but I'm not closing doors to experiences in life." Jenner has previously addressed the speculation in a 2018 Vogue interview, attributing it to her more private approach to relationships compared to her sisters. She emphasized that if circumstances were different, she would be open about it and wouldn't hide it.

 An Alabama woman, Towana Looney, made headlines by living with a genetically modified pig kidney for a record 130 days before her body began rejecting it. 


The organ was removed on April 4 at NYU Langone Health. Looney has since returned home to Gadsden, Alabama, and is back on dialysis. Despite the outcome, she expressed gratitude for being part of this groundbreaking xenotransplantation research, hoping her experience will help others battling kidney disease.


This experiment is part of a broader effort to address the U.S. organ shortage, where over 100,000 people await transplants. Scientists are genetically modifying pig organs to make them more compatible with humans. Looney’s case is notable because, unlike earlier xenotransplant patients who were critically ill, she was healthier, allowing for a longer observation period. Her 130-day milestone marks significant progress in the field.


The pig kidney functioned well until early April, when her immune system began rejecting it. Doctors suspect this was due to a combination of infection from earlier dialysis treatments and reduced immune-suppressing medication. Still, Dr. Robert Montgomery, who led the surgery, emphasized that Looney’s health had not worsened after the procedure and that her case offers crucial insights for future research.


While xenotransplantation is still experimental and faces hurdles like organ rejection, Looney’s experience adds valuable data. Researchers remain optimistic that continued trials will one day make pig organ transplants a reliable option for those in need.
