Bollywood stars and their favourite cheat meals: Samosa for Hrithik, Donuts for Priyanka

<p>Jay-Z is taking his partner Bacardi in the cognac business&nbsp;D’Usse to court. The rapper-turned-entrepreneur has&nbsp;demanded&nbsp;transparency from Bacardi to know how much money his famous cognac line is making.&nbsp;Jay and the alcohol giant brand have co-owned D'Usse since 2011 and&nbsp;they are 50-50 partners in the business.</p>

<p>In docs obtained by TMZ Hip Hop, Jay-Z's company, SC Liquor, has demanded complete transparency in the business and has asked for all books and records along with the location of all warehouses that stores D'Usse barrels, bottles and accessories. He has also asked for Bacardi's physical inventory and its inventory process.</p>

<p>In the docs,&nbsp;SC Liquor says it needs to "monitor the conduct of [Bacardi's] business to protect SC Liquor's rights as" a partner in the company.</p>

<p>Jay-Z is often seen giving shout-outs&nbsp;to the brand in his songs. He even drank the&nbsp;distinct and versatile cognac&nbsp;from one of his Grammys to promote the brand.&nbsp;</p>

<p>It's still unclear what prompted Jay-Z to demand this info through a lawsuit, however, it is clear that there's a level of distrust between the two partners.&nbsp;</p>

Jay-Z sues D'Usse partner Bacardi due to transparency issues

<p>Egypt's state-affiliated musicians' union on Sunday announced a temporary ban on electro-beat "mahraganat" singers, the cultural establishment's latest move to crack down on the hugely popular genre.</p>

<p>Mahraganat, often known as "electro-shaabi", or popular electro relies heavily on computer-generated and synthesised beats, and has a wide reach.</p>

<p>Some purists in socially conservative Egypt -- a cultural powerhouse in the Arab world -- view its blunt lyrics tackling topics including love, power and money as overstepping moral boundaries.</p>

<p>The union has "decided to temporarily suspend permits issued to mahraganat singers, in order to fully study their case (and) in order to preserve Egypt's artistic value", it said in a statement Sunday.</p>

<p>The suspension came as Egyptian singer Mustafa Kamel became the union's chief.</p>

<p>His predecessor, Hani Shaker, had led a campaign against what he called an "unacceptable" genre, issuing a decision in February 2020 to ban mahraganat performers from clubs, cafes, hotels and concert venues.</p>

<p>"This kind of music which is loaded with sexual innuendo and offensive language is completely unacceptable. That's why we have pulled the plug on it once and for all," Shaker said at the time.<br />
The measure was unevenly enforced.</p>

<p>Union spokesman Tarek Mortada said Sunday that a committee would be formed in the coming days to study the issue and determine a course of action, which could include a permanent ban.</p>

<p>The move, he said, is to "preserve public taste in the country."</p>

<p>Mahraganat music has gone mainstream in Egypt, with its outlandishly named stars monetising social media success after the country's 2011 uprising.</p>

Egypt temporarily bans hugely popular 'Mahraganat' singers

<p>British singer Harry Styles' Love On Tour has seen some really dramatic moments since the day it started. First, we saw chicken nuggets being thrown at the singer on the stage. Now, in his latest concert in Chicago on Friday, he was seen being hit by a bottle at his groin. But like a champ, he took it sportingly and kept going with the concert.</p>

<p>According to reports and viral clips, Harry was&nbsp;performing at the United Center in Chicago when the incident took place. While speaking to the crowd&nbsp;about the weather in the Windy City, he took a hard hit at a sensitive area. The incident got captured on the lens, which has now gone viral.</p>

<p>Right after being hit by the bottle, Harry showed signs of feeling discomfort. And, he said, “Now that’s unfortunate.” He paused for a few seconds before saying, “Ok, shake it off.” Then the heartthrob jumped up and down, seemingly trying to rid of the pain.</p>

<p>After Geena Davis, Hollywood actor Seth Green has come forward to make some shocking claims about his former co-star Bill Murray. Speaking to hosts Link Neal and Rhett James McLaughlin for their Good Mythical Morning Youtube channel, Green claimed that Murray held him over a trash bin by his ankles when he was just a 9-year-old child.</p>

<p>All of this happened when he was filming a segment for Saturday Night Live about what kids think about the Christmas holiday. Murray was the host of that particular episode.</p>

<p>"[Murray] saw me sitting on the arm of this chair and made a big fuss about me being in his seat," Green said. "And I was like, ‘That is absurd. I am sitting on the arm of this couch. There are several lengths of this sofa. Kindly eff off.’ And he was like, ‘That’s my chair.’"</p>

<p>Then Green’s mother asked her son to move for Murray, but he refused. Talking about what happened next, Green said, "He picked me up by my ankles. Held me upside down… He dangled me over a trash can and he was like, ‘The trash goes in the trash can.’ And I was screaming, and I swung my arms, flailed wildly, full contact with his balls. He dropped me in the trash can, the trash can falls over. I was horrified. I ran away, hid under the table in my dressing room and just cried."</p>

<p>Murray has not&nbsp;addressed Green's allegations yet.</p>

<p>Green's allegations come after Murray allegedly paid $100,000 (£90,000) to settle an official complaint filed by a female crew member for&nbsp;allegedly kissing and straddling her on the set of 'Being Mortal'.</p>

Seth Green claims Bill Murray held him upside down by his ankles over trash can when he was just 9

<p>For the first time in almost four years since Justin Bieber's wedding, his ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez and his wife Hailey Baldwin have extended the hand of friendship towards each other. And, putting all of their differences aside, they enjoyed together at a starry night in Los Angeles last night.&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to reports, Selena and Hailey were all smiles as they partied together at the Academy Museum Gala in LA on Sunday. They were also seen giving each other a warm hug.&nbsp;Several photos taken by professional BTS party photographer Tyrell Hampton show the two divas talking and posing for the lens.&nbsp;</p>

<p>For the evening, Hailey and Selena were dressed to the nines, looking every bit stunning in their chic attires. While Hailey opted for a&nbsp;strapless gown&nbsp;featuring a torso cutout and ruched detailing from Saint Laurent's spring/summer 2023 collection, Selena opted for a chic black suit with satin lapels and flared trousers.</p>

<p>The singer paired her formal suit with open-toe sandals and statement chandelier earrings. On the other hand, Hailey opted for a&nbsp;vintage Tiffany &amp; Co. necklace.&nbsp;</p>

For the first time in almost four years since Justin Bieber's wedding, his ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez and his wife Hailey Baldwin have extended the hand of friendship towards each other.

For the first time in almost four years since Justin Bieber's wedding, his ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez and his wife Hailey Baldwin have extended the hand of friendship towards each other. And, putting all of their differences aside, they enjoyed together at a starry night in Los Angeles last night. According to reports, Selena and Hailey were all smiles as they partied together at the Academy Museum Gala in LA on Sunday. They were also seen giving each other a warm hug. Several photos taken by professional BTS party photographer Tyrell Hampton show the two divas talking and posing for the lens. For the evening, Hailey and Selena were dressed to the nines, looking every bit stunning in their chic attires. While Hailey opted for a strapless gown featuring a torso cutout and ruched detailing from Saint Laurent's spring/summer 2023 collection, Selena opted for a chic black suit with satin lapels and flared trousers. The singer paired her formal suit with open-toe sandals and statement chandelier earrings. On the other hand, Hailey opted for a vintage Tiffany & Co. necklace.

<p>During his transition from television to film in the 1980s and 90s, he met&nbsp;Tim Burton to speak about the superhero film. During the conversation, he made a light-hearted comment that he thinks could have been the major reason why he didn't bag the role.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Actor John Leguizamo, who played the role of Luigi in the&nbsp;1993 live-action film 'Super Mario Bros',&nbsp;has expressed disappointment&nbsp;with the 'Super Mario Bros' makers' decision to have an all-white cast for the upcoming film.

Be it on the runways, movies or social media, the '90s aesthetic is making a comeback and we are ready to embrace it with open arms. But before we talk about fashion, let's take a trip down memory lane and remember the days when we used to eat a big bucket of ice cream watching 'Friends' and 'Sex in the City' on our television.

Be it on the runways, movies or social media, the '90s aesthetic is making a comeback and we are ready to embrace it with open arms. But before we talk about fashion, let's take a trip down memory lane and remember the days when we used to eat a big bucket of ice cream watching 'Friends' and 'Sex in the City' on our television. And, all of us girls would obsess over Carrie Bradshaw and Rachel Karen Green's iconic looks that featured crop tops, tulle skirts, denim tops, plaid mini skirts, slip dresses, leather pants and a lot more. While on the radio, we would blast songs sung by Britney Spears, the Spice Girls and Shania Twain who were also setting trends via their music videos and stage performances in the '90s. With so many icons to look up to, the fashion industry saw several timeless trends taking over runways, shoots, films and even streets. And, those trends are still very relevant today as they are making their way back into popular culture once again. Before you go on a shopping spree to fill your wardrobe for the next season, check out these 7 vintage-inspired trends that are currently getting love and appreciation from all quarters. School-themes plead skirts View this post on Instagram A post shared by Beatrice (@beacorn_arts) Channel your inner Cher Horowitz by pairing a cute plaid mini skirt with a matching blazer and recreate her iconic look. You can even pair it with a basic tank or turtleneck sweater. Biker shorts Kardashians have reignited people's craze for biker shorts. They pair well with crop tops, baggy hoodies, and even tank tops. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Kim Kardashian (@kimkardashian) Mini denim skirts For the last two decades, we had almost forgotten how cool mini denim skirts look as they got replaced with godet, gore, sarong, pencil and other types of skirts. Now, with the resurgence of '90s fashion trends, we are getting to see new collections of hot and sultry denim skirts that pair well with tank tops, tees and crop tops (if you wish to flaunt your abs). View this post on Instagram A post shared by ZİA ONLINE (@ziaonline) Ribbed turtleneck tees Ribbed turtleneck tees are a chic way to stay comfortable and look stylish during winter. They look great on almost everything and anything. Instead of tees, you can also opt for turtleneck bodysuits if you do not like to tuck your tee inside your denim pants or trousers. Also read: Most expensive dresses ever made in history of fashion Slip dresses View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ivana Greta (@gretagardner) Bold and beautiful slip dresses have always been a wardrobe staple for fictitious fashion icons like Carrie Bradshaw and Blair Waldorf. Ever since they wore gorgeous slip dresses in the series, it became acceptable to wear them in public places along with coats and blazers. Considered one of the sexiest trends of the decade, it had to return in 2022 to make waves on the internet, once again. Faux fur oversized coats View this post on Instagram A post shared by 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐍𝐀 𝐎𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐀 (@maryoprea) Say no to fur and animal cruelty and yes to faux fur. Oversized faux fur coats remained a highlight throughout the '90s, and it seems that fashion designers are in the mood to experiment with them, once again. They look great with tight-fitted dresses, mini skirts, crop tops, denim pants and even shorts. Bomber jackets Since winter is just around the corner, we would suggest that you invest in a few bomber jackets that come in different colours and fabrics.

Timeless '90s-inspired looks that are trendy even today

<p>It's confirmed, BTS will be heading to the military very soon without any delay. Big Hit Music company has confirmed the same via a Twitter post. Sharing long statements in English, Japanese and Chinese, the music company confirmed that&nbsp;all members of the hit band&nbsp;will fulfil the mandatory military service in the coming days.</p>

<p>In a statement, the music company stated that Jin will start&nbsp;his process as early as October end. Others will join as and when they are asked. And, by 2025, they will come back together as a boy band and will drop more songs for the ARMY.</p>

<p>"BIGHIT MUSIC is proud to announce today that the members of BTS are currently moving forward with plans to fulfil their military service. After the phenomenal concert to support Busan’s bid for the World Expo 2030, and as each individual embarks on solo endeavours, it’s the perfect time and the members of BTS are honoured to serve," the music company shared in the statement.</p>

<p>It further read, "Since the creation of BTS over ten years ago, the band has risen to international success, broken records, and catapulted K-Pop into the global stratosphere. BIGHIT MUSIC has focused to the milestone moment when it would be possible to respect the needs of the country and for these healthy young men to serve with their countrymen, and that’s now. Group member Jin will initiate the process as soon as his schedule for his solo release is concluded at the end of October. He will then follow the enlistment procedure of the Korean government. Other members of the group plan to carry out their military service based on their own individual plans. Both the company and the members of BTS are looking forward to reconvening as a group again around 2025 following their service commitment."</p>

<p>While concluding, the music company wrote, "With the release of their first anthology album earlier this year it opened the path to allow the members to take some time to explore individual projects. As part of the HYBE family, we support and encourage our artists and are beyond proud that they will each now have time to explore their unique interests and do their duty by being of service to the country they call home. 'Yet To Come (The Most Beautiful Moment)'&nbsp;is more than a track from their latest album, it is a promise, there’s much more yet to come in the years ahead from BTS."</p>

<p>Palestinian Dutch supermodel Gigi Hadid recently opened up about what it is like to be a brand founder and she expressed that she's not very different from the rest of us as she launched her cashmere fashion brand Guest in Residence. Hadid also revealed that she is suffering from imposter syndrome and that she cannot model forever.</p>

<p>Speaking to Vogue, the supermodel said, "I have imposter syndrome all the time."&nbsp;Imposter syndrome is persistent doubt concerning one's abilities and feeling like a fraud.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Although she has a lucrative modelling career, Hadid wanted to have an office job that would make her feel "much more settled".&nbsp;That's why she launched her cashmere fashion brand 'Guest in Residence' last month.</p>

<p>Talking about her brand, Hadid told the publication, "You can't model forever. I was creative and that is where I saw my life going. I already had been thinking about cashmere, but I think it (pregnancy) just made me think about how much more settled I would feel to have an office space job. I can take my daughter there with me."</p>

<p>Addressing Hadid, Vogue's fashion editor Gabriella Karefa-Johnson said,&nbsp;"Sometimes I forget that you are a creative director and a boss of a huge company."</p>

<p>This spurred the supermodel on to admit that she agreed with her, confessing that she has imposter syndrome all the time.</p>

<p>Haddi went on to elaborate that there's always a temptation to link oneself to fast fashion which often has instant gratification and revenue, but she wanted to go down a more thoughtful and sustainable route. Hence, she picked cashmere as her brand's main focus.</p>

<p>She said, "I thought that it was a bit not necessarily obvious, but expected for me to come out with something that was more a fast-fashion type situation. (Cashmere) just felt like the right material that I could play with in a lot of different ways that was true to me, true to my style."</p>

<p>The idea for the brand had been brewing for quite some time now. She revealed that she first came across the fabric during her school days when her parents gave her a cashmere sweater to combat the New York cold when she started studying at The New School.</p>

<p>Hadid recently grabbed headlines for speaking up for Gabriella as Kanye West slammed the fashion editor online. "You wish u had a percentage of her intellect. You have no idea haha....

<p>Rapper Nicki Minaj's 'Super Freaky Girl' was shifted out of the Grammy's rap categories and into the pop division on a preliminary ballot. It nearly resulted in an international incident, given the ensuing publicity and controversy as voting began this week. However, Minaj is, in fact, on the ballot in rap categories this year but not for 'Super Freaky Girl', reports Variety.</p>

<p>Grammy voters who've received their ballots have disclosed that Minaj is in contention in the best rap performance category for another song of hers, 'Do We Have a Problem?', which has a featured appearance from Lil Baby.</p>

<p>According to Variety, the Grammy's rap screening committee apparently considered this more of a true hip-song and 'Super Freaky Girl' more pop in nature, splitting the difference.</p>

<p>'Do We Have a Problem?' was a substantial hit, although not quite as mammoth as 'Super Freaky Girl', which went to No. 1 this summer on the Billboard Hot 100. Minaj has already been awarded for it: The 'Problem' video won the best hip-hop video trophy at the MTV Video Music Awards in August.</p>

<p>In fact, Minaj makes several more appearances on the rap part of the Grammy ballot, although several are for collaborative songs on which she was considered more of a featured artist and may not have been involved in making the Grammy submissions.</p>

<p>Variety adds that 'Blick Blick', a track she shares with Coi Leray, is on the ballot for best rap performance and best rap song. (It was also submitted and accepted in the music video category.)</p>

<p>Similarly, 'Love in the Way', a song she did with Bleu, is listed among the eligible songs for best rap song and best melodic rap performance. In both cases, Minaj is listed as a featured artist, not the primary name.</p>

<p>Altogether, Minaj appears eight times on the ballot - once in a pop category, twice in the music video, and five times in rap categories.
