<p>Mumbai Police registered a case of extortion and defamation against the 30-year-old complainant and a Thane-based politician a day after a rape case was filed against Bhushan Kumar, the managing director of Indian music company T-Series.&nbsp;</p>

Cannes 2021 Winners List: Who won big, who missed the bus

<p>Billie Eilish&nbsp;has landed herself into a controversy&nbsp;after a <a href="http://13.235.153.162/entertainment/billie-eilish-apologises-for-using-racial-slur-in-viral-video-appalled-and-embarrassed-393270">video of her</a> using a racial slur and mocking an Asian accent went viral.&nbsp;However, the singer later issued an apology. Now, a month after, Eilish recently addressed the issue again.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
In an interview with Vogue Australia, Eilish shared her feeling and said she is “ashamed” of some past behaviour.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
By telling that everyone has an embarrassing past, she said, “I said so many things then that I totally don’t agree with now, or think the opposite thing. The weirdest thing is how nothing ever goes away once it’s on the internet. Every interview I did when I was 15 is still out there, and I think about it constantly,” she explained.</p>

<br />
“It’s really weird how the world can see every aspect of your life and reminisce about [it]. It’s so weird,” she continued. By addressing the viral video thing, “The internet brings up things from everybody’s past and I’m like: ‘Don’t you guys understand that everybody is incredibly embarrassed and ashamed about their past? Like, do you not think about the fact that maybe you’re embarrassed of your past, so maybe everybody else is embarrassed, too?’” Eilish added.<br />
<br />
Last month, Billie issued an<a href="http://13.235.153.162/entertainment/billie-eilish-apologises-for-using-racial-slur-in-viral-video-appalled-and-embarrassed-393270"> apology </a>by putting out a long statement on Instagram and said she was "appalled and embarrassed" by the edit, which she said was from the time when she was 13 or 14 years old. In the video, Eilish can be seen mouthing the slur.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"I am appalled and embarrassed and want to barf that I ever mouthed along to that word," Eilish, now 19, said. "This song was the only time I`d ever heard that word as it was never used around me by anyone in my family. Regardless of my ignorance and age at the time, nothing excuses the fact is that it was hurtful. And for that I am sorry."<br />
<br />
The video went viral amid a spate of attacks on Asian Americans during the pandemic.</p>

<p>The fan-following of the hit ‘Twilight’ saga refuses to die down even after 10 years since its initial release. But the hit pair of Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson—who had played bella Swan and Edward Cullen respectively—was not the original choices for the lead roles.</p>

<p><br />
In a blog post from 2007 that has now resurfaced, author Stephenie Meyer, who wrote the ‘Twilight’ book series, talked about her choices for the casting. “My opinions on the movie matter to no one. I have no influence on what goes on with the movie at all. No one is going to ask who I think should star in Twilight… Right now my favorite choice is Emily Browning, of Lemony Snicket’s fame… The only actor I’ve ever seen who I think could come close to pulling off Edward Cullen is Henry Cavill… I didn’t find an actress that looked like Rosalie to me, but I did find a model…Joanna Krupa. And hey, don’t all models want to be actresses?”&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
Nikki Reed went on to play the part of Rosalie. She wanted Daniel Cudmore as Emmett, but that role was bagged by Kellan Lutz.</p>

<p><br />
For the uninitiated, the ‘Twilight’ franchise followed the love story between Bella Swan and Edward Cullen, who came from a family of vampires and was one himself.&nbsp;<br />

'Twilight' casting coup: Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson not first choices

<p>BTS recently released soundtrack 'Permission to Dance' &nbsp;is the new internet sensation, but seems like the South Korean government has a different perception on&nbsp;the song.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The government has put a ban on BTS' new hit track in Seoul's gyms and the reason is actually beneficial for people. Everyone loves speedy and energetic songs during the workout but, as per the rules, the tracks above a certain speed will be banned as they&nbsp;cited -- the songs are&nbsp;potentially dangerous for exercise during the pandemic and to stop the spread of Covid-19 infections.<br />
<br />
The new and unusual rule by Health Officials in South Korea says music with a higher BPM (beats per minute) count of 120 is banned to be played during group exercises such as aerobic, spin classes and also&nbsp;to prevent fast breathing and sweating onto other people.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The newly released K-pop hits, BTS’s Permission to Dance is 127bpm, which means a big no! But the good news for BTS fans is&nbsp;that BTS’ other new track 'Butter' is not on the list of banned tunes.<br />
<br />
Responding to the ban, Kang Hyun-ku, a gym owner, told Reuters, “Playing bright tracks is to cheer up our members and the overall mood, but my biggest question is whether playing classical music or songs by [the boyband] BTS has been proved to have any impact on spreading the virus,” &nbsp;<br />
He added, “Many people use their own earphones and wearable devices these days, and how do you control their playlists?”</p>

<p>Global pop star Britney Spears has been in the news these past few weeks over alleged ‘abuse’ of over her court-imposed conservatorship. Britney’s father Jamie Spears is currently the co-conservator of her estate along with an outside financial group, the Bessemer Trust.</p>

<p><br />
After revealing that she is not going to get back on stage till she is under her father’s watch on social media—and also her plans on suing him—Britney Spears has now taken to Instagram to express her angry and hurt over those who did not speak up during her initial struggles with the conservatorship.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
“There’s nothing worse than when the people closest to you who never showed up for you post things in regard to your situation whatever it may be and speak righteously for support … there’s nothing worse than that !!!! How dare the people you love the most say anything at all … did they even put a hand out to even lift me up at the TIME !!!??? How dare you make it public that NOW you CARE … did you put your hand out when I was drowning ???? Again … NO … so if you’re reading this and you know who you are … and you actually have the nerve to say anything about my situation just to save face for yourself publicly !!! If you’re gonna post something …. Please stop with the righteous approach when you’re so far from righteous it’s not even funny …. 🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼 and have a good day !!!!! PS if you’re reading this today and you can relate …. I’m sorry because I know what it’s like … and I send you my love 💋💋💋 !!!!

<p>Indian-American rapper Raja Kumari to pay tribute to late musician Amy Winehouse at a live-streaming event to be held on July 23.</p>

<p><br />
A star-studded tribute in memory of late English singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse is slated to live stream on July 23 that will assemble a line-up of both established and rising artists to pay homage to the Grammy-winning music legend on the 10th anniversary of her passing.</p>

<p><br />
Titled ‘Back To Amy’, the three-hour ‘festival style’ event will emanate from City Winery Nashville—the site of a new physical exhibit dedicated to Winehouse—and is a collaboration between MusiCares® Foundation, the philanthropic partner of the Recording Academy, and the Amy Winehouse Foundation. The show will include performances from the Nashville venue, recordings from around the globe and spoken-word dispatches from other musicians.</p>

<p><br />
The showcase in celebration of Winehouse's legacy will feature performances by rocker Chris Daughtry, Nashville-royalty Ana Cristina and John Carter Cash, Broadway’s Joshua Henry, UK rising star Zola Courtney, St. Louis indie rockers Hounds, Nashville-based singer/songwriter Young Summer, Los Angeles-based musician-model Cailin Russo and Cuba’s Sweet Lizzy Project and newcomer Riley Clemmons. All performing artists will be sharing new recordings with a message of promoting positive mental health as part of the tribute.</p>

<p><br />
Marking her presence at the event will be Indian-American Grammy-nominated rapper, singer and songwriter Raja Kumari, who is confirmed to feature on the eclectic performance line-up.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
Talking about it, Raja Kumari reportedly said, “I am so honored to be supporting mental health awareness at Back To Amy with MusiCares® and the Amy Winehouse Foundation. This is a topic that is really important to me. I’ve been in therapy for the last year and it’s thoroughly changed my life. I try to talk about it as much as I can because it’s kind of taboo in my culture and people don’t want to get help when they really need it. As musicians especially in the last two years I think our mental health has come to the forefront. Join me in supporting this important cause as we celebrate art, music, empowerment, and Amy's legacy.”<br />

The show will include performances from the Nashville venue, recordings from around the globe and spoken-word dispatches from other musicians. The showcase in celebration of Winehouse's legacy will feature performances by rocker Chris Daughtry, Nashville-royalty Ana Cristina and John Carter Cash, Broadway’s Joshua Henry, UK rising star Zola Courtney, St. Louis indie rockers Hounds, Nashville-based singer/songwriter Young Summer, Los Angeles-based musician-model Cailin Russo and Cuba’s Sweet Lizzy Project and newcomer Riley Clemmons. All performing artists will be sharing new recordings with a message of promoting positive mental health as part of the tribute. Marking her presence at the event will be Indian-American Grammy-nominated rapper, singer and songwriter Raja Kumari, who is confirmed to feature on the eclectic performance line-up. Talking about it, Raja Kumari reportedly said, “I am so honored to be supporting mental health awareness at Back To Amy with MusiCares® and the Amy Winehouse Foundation. This is a topic that is really important to me. I’ve been in therapy for the last year and it’s thoroughly changed my life. I try to talk about it as much as I can because it’s kind of taboo in my culture and people don’t want to get help when they really need it. As musicians especially in the last two years I think our mental health has come to the forefront. Join me in supporting this important cause as we celebrate art, music, empowerment, and Amy's legacy.”

It so happened that when a multilingual, big-budget adaptation of Hindu epic ‘Ramayana’ was announced in 2019, it was reported that Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor Khan was approached for the role of Sita. Later, rumours of Kareena asking for a whopping 12 crore to play the mythological character.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
Now, in &nbsp;an interview with an entertainment website, Priyamani said that Kareena must have asked for that kind of money because ‘she deserves it. “Regarding the pay parity I would definitely say that if a woman is asking for what she deserves I think it is because she deserves it. That is her market thing and she deserves it what she is asking for. So I don’t think you should question that… About the pay parity, I don’t think there is anything wrong… What I’m saying is if a female especially is asking for how much ever amount she is asking for, I think she very well deserves it. So I don’t think there’s anything wrong. These ladies have reached a point where they can say what they want to… You can’t make a comment on that person just because you think that it’s wrong that doesn’t mean that the person doesn’t deserve it (sic),” the actress was quoted as saying.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
Earlier, the write of this mythological drama, K V Vijayendra Prasad, had clarified that Kareena has not been finalized for the role yet. Interestingly, some reports of Deepika Padukone also being considered for the role started doing the rounds. There’s no confirmation or denial on that as well.&nbsp;</p>
