India gets its first cinema with bar and lounge at Jio World Plaza in Mumbai

As the sexual assault cases continue to pile up against music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, the celeb has stepped aside as chairman of Revolt, the music-oriented TV network that he co-founded in 2013. It is a temporary decision suggested by his team since Sean is embroiled in not one but three lawsuits.&nbsp;

Revolt's Instagram page posted a lengthy statement. It read: “Sean Combs has stepped down from his position as chairman of Revolt. While Mr. Combs has previously had no operational or day-to-day role in the business, this decision helps to ensure that Revolt remains steadfastly focused on our mission to create meaningful content for the culture and amplify the voices of all Black people throughout this country and the African diaspora.”

Earlier this month, singer and Sean’s former romantic partner Cassie accused Sean Combs of raping and beating her over the course of a decade. Cassie, whose real name is Casandra Ventura, previously recorded for Combs’ Bad Boy record label. They were romantically linked for the longest time until they eventually parted ways. Just one day after the suit was filed, Cassie and Sean reached a settlement.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-sean-combs-accused-of-rape-abuse-by-former-partner-cassie-659552">Explainer| Sean Combs accused of rape, abuse by former partner Cassie: A look at their failed romance</a>

Cassie said in a statement, “I have decided to resolve this matter amicably on terms that I have some level of control. I want to thank my family, fans, and lawyers for their unwavering support.”

Sean “Diddy” Combs added: “We have decided to resolve this matter amicably. I wish Cassie and her family all the best.” Sean Combs maintains his innocence, as his attorney Ben Brafman said in a follow-up statement, “Just so we’re clear, a decision to settle a lawsuit, especially in 2023, is in no way an admission of wrongdoing. Mr. Combs’ decision to settle the lawsuit does not in any way undermine his flat-out denial of the claims. He is happy they got to a mutual settlement and wishes Ms. Ventura the best.”

Just after that got settled, he was hit with another lawsuit as Joi Dickerson-Neal, alleged that Combs “drugged, sexually assaulted and abused” her and that she was the victim of “revenge porn” created and distributed by the rapper. She claims that the two met while she was a student at Syracuse University in 1991 and she agreed to attend a dinner with him after appearing in one of his music videos. Dickerson-Neal alleges that Combs “intentionally drugged” her during the dinner, sexually assaulted her, recorded it on video, and shared the tape with others.&nbsp;

Another woman alleged that Sean Combs and Aaron Hall took turns raping her and her friends at Hall’s apartment sometime between 1990 and 1991.

As the sexual assault cases continue to pile up against music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, the celeb has stepped aside as chairman of Revolt, the music-oriented TV network that he co-founded in 2013.

As the sexual assault cases continue to pile up against music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, the celeb has stepped aside as chairman of Revolt, the music-oriented TV network that he co-founded in 2013. It is a temporary decision suggested by his team since Sean is embroiled in not one but three lawsuits. Revolt's Instagram page posted a lengthy statement. It read: “Sean Combs has stepped down from his position as chairman of Revolt. While Mr. Combs has previously had no operational or day-to-day role in the business, this decision helps to ensure that Revolt remains steadfastly focused on our mission to create meaningful content for the culture and amplify the voices of all Black people throughout this country and the African diaspora.” Earlier this month, singer and Sean’s former romantic partner Cassie accused Sean Combs of raping and beating her over the course of a decade. Cassie, whose real name is Casandra Ventura, previously recorded for Combs’ Bad Boy record label. They were romantically linked for the longest time until they eventually parted ways. Just one day after the suit was filed, Cassie and Sean reached a settlement.

The Boys spinoff finding new base in Mexico

Supermodel Gigi Hadid, who is quite vocal about her support for Palestine amid the Israel-Hamas war, took back a statement that is being labelled by many as “antisemitic”. In an Instagram post, Gigi said that Israel is the “only country in the world” that keeps children as prisoners of war. To prove her point, she posted an example that didn’t go down too well for everyone.&nbsp;

In a now-deleted post, Gigi shared that Palestinian Ahmad Manasra, who was arrested at 13 years old by Israeli police and sentenced to 12 years in prison, was later In a now-deleted post, Gigi shared that Palestinian Ahmad Manasra, who was arrested at 13 years old by Israeli police and sentenced to 12 years in prison, was later reduced to 9.5 years. The Palestinian child was arrested for stabbing an Israeli security guard and a 12-year-old boy. She was trying to point out that while Palestinian children are picked up for crimes, they are not treated as kids but as adults -- left to serve prison time and are not treated fairly. She said in her post that no other country treats children and adults the same way when it concerns correctional treatment and prison time.&nbsp;

As for Hadid’s post, it was met with severe criticism with some of her industry peers calling it false. Music mogul Scooter Braun (who manages profiles of some of the most noteworthy musicians) said, “I know people mean well but when you say a child was abducted when it turns out it was a teenager who went out and stabbed two random innocent civilians including a 12-year-old on camera and then stated ‘I wanted to stab Jews.’ Let’s get our facts right before we post to 78 million people.”

In an Instagram post in reply, Gigi Hadid wrote, “I wanted to show the ways in which international law is being undermined by the Israeli government. In this case, I was trying to highlight how Palestinian children who are arrested by the IDF are often not given the same rights as an Israeli child accused of the same crime would. Unfortunately, I used the wrong example to make that point and I regret that.”

She also criticised violence from any and all sides in the current Israel-Hamas war. “My focus was intended to be on human rights issues. That is why I also want to reiterate that attacking any human, which of course includes Jewish people, is NEVER OK. Taking innocent people hostage is NEVER OK. Harming someone BECAUSE they are Jewish is NEVER OK. It is wrong,” she said.&nbsp;

She added, “A Palestinian child, even if he is accused of a horrific crime, deserves the same rights that an Israeli child would have under the same circumstances.”

Gigi Hadid and sister Bella Hadid’s father is Mohamed Hadid, a Palestinian immigrant. Ever since the October 7 Hamas attack took place, Israel has carpet bombed Gaza in retaliation. Gigi and her sister Bella have criticised the Israeli government on social media over its treatment of people in Gaza.&nbsp;

Sex and the City star Cynthia Nixon has decided which side of history she wants to be written off as she joined a group of activists outside the White House in the US, who are threatening a hunger strike to express solidarity with the people of Gaza.&nbsp;

On October 7, Hamas militants entered Israel, killed at least 1,200 people and took over 200 as hostages to Gaza.&nbsp;In retaliation, Israel attacked&nbsp;Gaza City, leaving thousands dead and several more injured.&nbsp;A four-day truce was later announced between the two warring parties which was later extended by two days.&nbsp;
