*** WARNING: The following post is extremely graphic ***

An 11-year-old girl is currently recovering after an accident on a carnival ride over the weekend left her completely scalped.

Elizabeth "LuLu" Gilreath was taking part in Omaha, Nebraska's Cinco de Mayo festival on Saturday when her hair began to get tangled up in the mechanics of the ride she was on.

While her friend and other visitors tried to get the operator's attention, we're hearing LuLu was actually in distress for anywhere from five to ten minutes before the attraction finally came to a stop!

Unfortunately, that's when spectators noticed the pre-teen was laying bloody at the bottom of the ride — but luckily they were quick enough to fashion a make-shift tourniquet out of clothes for the young girl.

LuLu's mother Virginia Cooksey gave an update on her daughter's tragic injuries in a Facebook post Sunday, saying:

Float like a butterfly, sting like Samantha Bee!

As we reported, Donald Trump posted an extremely weird message on Cinco De Mayo where he tried to prove his love of Hispanics by eating a taco bowl from his own restaurant.

Many criticized the post as being insincere, self-serving, and just plain odd!

On Thursday, the Full Frontal host posted the best response to Trump's post on her Twitter account!

Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan must have made up behind the scenes. Why else would they trust them with blunt instruments already??

On Thursday morning's LIVE!, the cohosts welcomed Captain America: Civil War star Robert Downey Jr. — and in honor of Cinco de Mayo they let him take a swing at a Captain America piñata!

But when Iron Man couldn't hit the sweet spot, he stepped aside for the formerly (?) feuding hosts.

Worth noting that Michael courteously let Kelly have the first swing — and she was even looking out for him, noticing that he was standing in the path of her backswing!

Whew! Watch the close call that could have ended up in another Civil War (above)!

Donald Trump sure knows what he's doing!

The presidential hopeful, who is now the presumptive nominee after Ted Cruz and John Kasich dropped out of the race, took to Twitter on Thursday to wish his supporters a Happy Cinco De Mayo!

Awwww, how sweet… that would have been if the post wasn't slathered in self-promotion!

Cinco De Mayo is over, but if you need something to cheer you up in your margarita hangover state, James Corden has you covered.

The Late Late Show host pulled out all the stops for celebrating the unofficial holiday on his Tuesday show for his guests Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting and LL Cool J.

Except he forgot to buy one thing — a piñata!

So, the 36-year-old did what any rational person would do, dress up as a piñata himself and let his guests take a few swings at him with baseball bats!

Don't worry, Corden didn't get hit too hard. But he WAS visibly nervous when LL Cool J stepped up to bat!

Ch-ch-check out the video (below) to see the host get the candy knocked out of him!

People these days!

Aubrey O’Day was just enjoying a very seksi Cinco de Mayo when her BMW was the victim of a hit-and-run while she was sitting in the car!

The boobalicious beauty was in the passenger seat at a red light when a black Buick Enclave hit her and sped away!

Not only did the damages come in at around $10,000, but then they threatened her life!

As luck would have it, Aubrey saw the SUV the next day and snapped some pics of the damage, but then the drive confronted her!

Allegedly, the driver was carrying a heavy metal object and said
