<p>Isn't it ironic that MrBeast – the man who inspires many youth to become YouTubers through his success story as the most-subscribed channel– worries that artificial intelligence flooding the American video-sharing platform could kill small creators? What many don’t tell you is that 94 per cent of YouTube channels are never monetised.

<p>&nbsp;</p><p>The clip also called out the "false narratives" and hate campaigns that have been circulating about Deepika online, something Triptii appeared to acknowledge with her "like."

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck may have separated, but they continue to be supportive of each other's professional endeavours. The former couple recently reunited on the red carpet at the premiere of the upcoming musical Kiss of the Spider Woman. On Monday night, the star-studded premiere of the musical took place in New York City. The film stars Lopez in the lead, while Affleck is the executive producer. Jennifer Lopez-Ben Affleck reunite Affleck and his friend Matt Damon’s production company Artist Equity has backed the film Kiss of the Spider Woman, which stars Lopez in the lead. At the premiere, the former couple posed together on the red carpet, ahead of the film’s screening. A few photos captured the two A-listers chatting with each other on the carpet. Affleck, 53, also spoke to the press about the film. Lopez looked drop-dead gorgeous in a silver structured outfit from Harris Reed's spring 2026 collection. Lopez thanks ex-husband Ahead of the screening, Lopez introduced the film and thanked her ex-husband, saying, “Thank you so much, thank you everybody for being here tonight. Thank you, Ben, this movie wouldn’t have been made without Ben and without Artist Equity.” “I read the script, if you know, I was in bed and I was just floored," she continued. "I was just like could this be happening right now. I get to sing, I get to dance, I get to act. I get to be an old-time Hollywood movie star." Jennifer Lopez-Ben Affleck's divorce The reunion on Monday night was the first for the actor, who divorced earlier this year. The two met in 2002 and began dating. They got engaged the following year, only to break up in 2004. Both JLo and Affleck pursued other relationships later and started families of their own. However, in 2021, they rekindled their romance and married in Las Vegas in July 2022. In 2024, they split, citing irreconcilable differences. They settled their divorce in February 2025. The couple have been supportive of each other’s kids and even appeared together at some private events for their children, but Monday’s appearance together on the red carpet was a first since their divorce. Lopez had earlier opened up about Affleck’s involvement in the musical production and stated, “If it wasn’t for Ben, the movie wouldn’t have gotten made," adding, “And I will always give him that credit." While appearing on TODAY show, Lopez also said in reference to their divorce, "Things happen, you have to keep going." While appearing on CBS News Sunday Morning, Lopez also opened up about what it was like to film the musical amid her personal heartbreak. "It was a really tough time,” she admitted. “Every moment on set, every moment I was doing this role, I was so happy, and then it was like, back home, it was not great. And it was just like, oh, you know, 'How do I reconcile this?' " The new Kiss of the Spider Woman premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival. It reimagines the stage musical from Kander, Ebb and Terrence McNally that first starred Chita Rivera on Broadway in 1993.

<p>The global sensational group from South Korea, BTS, has always been the topic of discussion, be it V and Jimin spotted at fashion shows or members' live streams. With their return from their military service, fans are eagerly waiting for their comeback as a group. Recently, the group's leader and member, RM, opened up about the expectations of marriage and having children.</p><h2>What did RM say about marriage and children?</h2><p>During the Weverse livestream, RM shared his honest thoughts about the topics. He stated, “When it comes to marriage, I think a lot of people feel pressured, both by reality and by society. Especially women, since there’s constant pressure from the media and people around them about having kids or other responsibilities. It feels like we’re all being pushed into a mould, but honestly, I just wish people could live life at their own pace. I don’t think there’s a single right answer. From my point of view, if someone can’t handle being alone, then even if they get married, will that really fix things?”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also Read:</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>RM further said, "Because when you’re married, there will still be moments when you want to be alone… that’s just human nature. So I think people who are comfortable being alone can also be good partners when they’re together with someone, and vice versa.

<p>“There’s no right answer to any of this. People who are married can only speak from the perspective of someone who’s married, and people who aren’t married can only speak from their own experience, and neither side truly understands the other. So, I think we should just take the stories and experiences of people around us as what they are, their experiences. In a way, I think our generation, those of us born in the ’90s, are the first in Korea to really see marriage as an option. And because of that, I believe we should all just follow our own choices,” RM stated.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/vijay-deverakonda-clicked-for-the-first-time-since-engagement-to-rashmika-mandanna-fans-spot-actor-flaunting-ring-1759748342941"><strong>Vijay Deverakonda spotted wearing engagment ring as he visits temple with family</strong></a></p><h2>All about RM</h2><p>RM, aka Kim Nam-joon, is a South Korean rapper, songwriter, and record producer.

South Korean group BTS member RM recently opened up about the marriage expectations society demands and childbirth. He was recently seen during a fashion event.

The global sensational group from South Korea, BTS, has always been the topic of discussion, be it V and Jimin spotted at fashion shows or members' live streams. With their return from their military service, fans are eagerly waiting for their comeback as a group. Recently, the group's leader and member, RM, opened up about the expectations of marriage and having children. What did RM say about marriage and children? During the Weverse livestream, RM shared his honest thoughts about the topics. He stated, “When it comes to marriage, I think a lot of people feel pressured, both by reality and by society. Especially women, since there’s constant pressure from the media and people around them about having kids or other responsibilities. It feels like we’re all being pushed into a mould, but honestly, I just wish people could live life at their own pace. I don’t think there’s a single right answer. From my point of view, if someone can’t handle being alone, then even if they get married, will that really fix things?” Also Read: RM further said, "Because when you’re married, there will still be moments when you want to be alone… that’s just human nature.
