<p>What were Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell made for? Winning awards, apparently. The sibling duo’s <em>Barbie</em>&nbsp;blockbuster ballad “What Was I Made For?” won the Academy Award for best original song on Sunday night.</p>

<p>In doing so, Eilish, 22, has become the youngest person by far to have won two career Oscars. That beats a very old record set by Luise Rainer, who won her second best actress Oscar at 28 in 1938.</p>

<p>The second youngest is now Eilish’s 26-year-old brother and co-writer Finneas. The pair won their first Oscar for “No Time to Die” in 2021. That year, they beat out some impressive names, including Beyoncé, Van Morrison, Lin-Manuel Miranda and Diane Warren.</p>

<p>Hilary Swank and Jodie Foster — a best supporting actor nominee this year — are the only others to win two before 30.</p>

<p>“Thank you so much to the Academy. I feel like, I just didn’t think this would happen,” Eilish started her speech. “I’m so grateful for this song and for this movie and the way that it made me feel. And this goes out to everyone who was affected by the movie and how incredible it is. And I want to thank my team and my parents. I love you guys so much.”</p>

<p>She continued, “I want to thank my best friend Zoe for playing Barbies with me growing up, and being by my side forever,” and was met with laughs from the audience. “I want to thank my, like, dance teachers growing up. I want to thank my choir teachers. Miss Brigham, thanks for believing in me. Mrs. T, you didn’t like me, but you were good at your job.”</p>

<p>Eilish and Finneas beat out another <em>Barbie</em>&nbsp;cut, “I’m Just Ken,” as performed by Ryan Gosling and written by “Barbie the Album” executive producer Mark Ronson and his creative partner Andrew Wyatt. Jon Batiste and Dan Wilson’s “It Never Went Away” from <em>American Symphony</em>, Warren’s “The Fire Inside” from <em>Flamin’ Hot</em>&nbsp;and Scott George’s “Wahzhazhe (A Song For My People)” from <em>Killers of the Flower Moon</em>&nbsp;rounded out the category.</p>

<p>Eilish and O’Connell are no strangers to the Oscar stage. In addition to taking home the trophy for their James Bond theme “No Time to Die,” they performed during the in-memoriam segment in 2020.</p>

<p>In the months leading up to the Academy Awards, “What Was I Made For?” has raked in numerous trophies: In 2024 alone, they’ve won a Golden Globe for best original song and two Grammys. Not bad for a song written about an 11.5-inch-tall plastic doll.</p>

<p>“What Was I Made For?” debuted at No. 34 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart, eventually peaking at No. 14.</p>

<p>In the <em>Barbie</em>&nbsp;film, “What Was I Made For?” plays a key role — an instrumental version of the song pops up like a leitmotif, soundtracking introspective, existential moments for its protagonist. Eilish’s voice isn’t heard until the final scene, but at that point, the audience is well-prepared for its emotional impact.</p>

<p>Clearly, the duo excel at making music for movies. Before <em>Barbie</em>&nbsp;and Bond, three songs they wrote made it on Disney’s “Turning Red” soundtrack, pulling heavily from the likes of (asterisk)NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys.</p>

<p>In another music category, Ludwig Göransson won the Academy Award for original score for his work on <em>Oppenheimer</em>. It is his second Oscar and third nomination, having previously won in the category in 2019 for <em>Black Panther</em>.</p>

<p>In doing so, Göransson beat John Williams (<em>Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny</em>) and three first-time nominees, Jerskin Fendrix (<em>Poor Things</em>) Laura Karpman (<em>American Fiction</em>) and the late Robbie Robertson (<em>Killers of the Flower Moon</em>).</p>

<p><em>Oppenheimer</em>&nbsp;is director Christopher Nolan’s own adaptation of Martin J. Sherwin and Kai Bird’s Pulitzer Prize-winning 2005 book <em>American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer</em>, chronicling the Manhattan Project and its fallout.</p>

<p>“Christopher Nolan, it was your idea to use violin in the score, and it allowed me to work and collaborate with my wonderful wife and acclaimed violinist Serena Göransson. We (were) recording at night and we were rushing to go home to put our kids, Apollo, Romeo, to bed. But the result of that was amazing,” he said in his speech.</p>

<p>“And to my parents up there, thank you for giving me guitars and drum machines instead of video games. Thank you,” he concluded.</p>

<p>The film starring Cillian Murphy “is poised between the shock and aftershock of the terrible revelation, as one character calls it, of a divine power,” AP Film Writer Jake Coyle assessed in his review. Naturally, the score accomplishes something similar: Göransson composing from a first-person perspective for the first time, using his characteristic plays with rhythm and tempo to make one man’s history-altering endeavours feel larger than life.</p>

<p>“To be recognised on this score especially, it was a very personal score,” Göransson told The Associated Press when the nominations were announced in January. “It was also obviously extremely challenging to achieve these emotions and to tell the story of this complicated man’s feelings, his ambition and what he’s going through in his journey and from his perspective because the only way to do that is, I’ve had to go to some to some uncomfortable places.”</p>

<p>He added that “the way that Chris Nolan uses music in his storytelling is so unique and special and inspiring.”</p>

<p>“So, give all the music awards to Nolan and his collaborators,” he said. “I’m just very grateful to be working with him, and this is our second film together.”</p>

<p>Their first film together was the 2020 time-bending thriller <em>Tenet</em>.</p>

Did you know Billie Eilish is the youngest artist with 2 Oscar wins?

<p>The night before the Oscars isn’t a time to rest in Hollywood. For quite a few nominees, including <em>Barbie</em>&nbsp;star Margot Robbie, it meant a stop at the historic Beverly Hills Hotel for the 15th annual Chanel and Charles Finch pre-Oscar dinner.</p>

<p>Robbie was in very good company, with other Oscar nominees including best supporting actress frontrunner Da’Vine Joy Randolph, as well as America Ferrera, Sandra Hüller, Justine Triet, Cord Jefferson, Jonathan Glazer and Celine Song, who all are expected at the Dolby Theatre on Sunday evening.</p>

<p>They packed into the picturesque patio of the storied Polo Lounge for cocktails before the private dinner on a clear, chilly night in Beverly Hills. Robert De Niro was among the earliest arrivals, but within no time the space was full of stars.</p>

<p>Kristen Stewart and her finance Dylan Meyer chatted with Daniel Kaluuya near a well-placed heat lamp, while Chloë Sevigny surveyed the room a few feet away. Elsewhere Judd Apatow and Leslie Mann found an elusive seat to sip their drinks, though Apatow leapt to his feat when JR came around to say hello.</p>

<p>Triet and her <em>Anatomy of a Fall</em>&nbsp;star Hüller stayed close together, John Mulaney and Olivia Munn conversed with David O. Russell, while Adrien Brody and Patrick Dempsey chatted in another corner and Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos made the rounds.</p>

<p>Others in the crowd included Usher (a self-proclaimed <em>Oppenheimer</em>&nbsp;fan who also was wearing chaps), Ava DuVernay, Michael Keaton, Molly Sims, Maya Rudolph, Tessa Thompson, James Marsden, Kerry Washington, Rebecca Hall and Dominic Sessa</p>

<p>The event started somewhat humbly. Finch said 30 years ago he started hosting it because his friends “didn’t have anywhere to go the night before the Oscars.” It evolved to be one of the hottest tickets in town and 15 years ago Chanel joined in as a partner, bringing in even more star power with brand ambassadors like Stewart, Robbie, Lily-Rose Depp and Phoebe Tonkin.</p>

<p>“I’m terrified of giving dinners,” Finch said. “I seem like I’m really social, and I do it, but actually, it makes me really nervous.”</p>

<p>Robbie, Oscar-nominated as a producer on <em>Barbie</em>, was in good spirits before the big day. In addition to her red carpet looks, she utilised Chanel in the film too, with clothes, accessories and bags for her “stereotypical Barbie.”</p>

<p>“It just kind of serviced the moment and the story so it never felt forced or out of place. It felt very Barbie,” Robbie said. “We got to also recreate some looks I love, one worn by Claudia Schiffer, who’s just a great reference for Barbie in general. It was really fun.”</p>

<p>She also said she’s looking forward to cheering on Billie Eilish and Ryan Gosling, who are both performing nominated original songs live on the show on Sunday, which begins an hour earlier than usual at 7 p.m. EDT.</p>

<p>“I’m so excited,” Robbie said. “I think it’s going to be amazing.”</p>

Oscars 2024: Behind-the-scene pics you should not miss

<p>Hayao Miyazaki, the legendary Japanese filmmaker whose anime classics have enchanted fans around the world for decades, has won his second career Oscar. At 83, Miyazaki won for helming the best-animated film, <em>The Boy and the Heron</em>, the long-awaited fantasy from the director of <em>Spirited Away</em>, <em>My Neighbor Totoro</em>&nbsp;and <em>Kiki’s Delivery Service</em>.</p>

<p>He is the oldest director ever nominated for the category and the oldest winner by more than two decades — adding to a big year in Hollywood for older filmmakers.</p>

<p>Hailed as one of the best films of 2023, <em>The Boy and The Heron</em>&nbsp;beat its top rival in <em>Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse</em>, as well as <em>Elemental, Nimona</em>, and <em>Robot Dreams</em>.</p>

<p>It’s only the second hand-drawn animation winner in this category. The first, 21 years ago, was Miyazaki’s <em>Spirited Away</em>&nbsp;— his first-ever Oscar.</p>

<p>Sunday’s win for Miyazaki and producer Toshio Suzuki caps off a solid awards season run for the film, which won the top honour for an animated feature at the Golden Globes and the BAFTA Film Awards.</p>

<p>They were not present at the awards, but Studio Ghibli’s Kiyofumi Nakajima read a statement backstage from Suzuki.</p>

<p>“Both Hayao Miyazaki and I have aged considerably,” he said through a translator. “I am grateful to receive such an honour at my age, and taking this as a message to continue our work, I will devote myself to work harder in the future.”</p>

<p>It was Miyazaki’s fourth Oscar nomination for Best Animated Feature — tying with Pixar’s Pete Docter for the most nods in that category.</p>

<p>Miyazaki began work on <em>The Boy and the Heron</em>&nbsp;not long after announcing in 2013 that he intended to retire from film — again.</p>

<p>In journal excerpts from around that time released in the film’s press notes, Miyazaki writes: “There’s nothing more pathetic than telling the world you’ll retire because of your age, then making yet another comeback.</p>

<p>“Doesn’t an elderly person deluding themself that they’re still capable, despite their geriatric forgetfulness, prove that they’re past their best?” he adds. “You bet it does.”</p>

<p>Miyazaki worked through those concerns, and the resulting film earned him not only his second Oscar win on Sunday night, but his first No. 1 feature at the North American box office.</p>

<p><em>The Boy and the Heron</em>&nbsp;follows a boy named Mahito Maki who moves to the countryside after his mother’s death. There, he is lured by a mysterious heron into a secluded tower, a portal that transports him to a fantastical realm amid his grief.</p>

<p>The film was a decade in the making. In the age of CGI and artificial intelligence, Miyazaki has stuck to the lengthy process of hand-drawing his animations.</p>

Hayao Miyazaki, the legendary Japanese filmmaker whose anime classics have enchanted fans around the world for decades, has won his second career Oscar. At 83, Miyazaki won for helming the best-animated film, The Boy and the Heron, the long-awaited fantasy from the director of Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro and Kiki’s Delivery Service.

Hayao Miyazaki, the legendary Japanese filmmaker whose anime classics have enchanted fans around the world for decades, has won his second career Oscar. At 83, Miyazaki won for helming the best-animated film, The Boy and the Heron, the long-awaited fantasy from the director of Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro and Kiki’s Delivery Service. He is the oldest director ever nominated for the category and the oldest winner by more than two decades — adding to a big year in Hollywood for older filmmakers. Hailed as one of the best films of 2023, The Boy and The Heron beat its top rival in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, as well as Elemental, Nimona, and Robot Dreams. It’s only the second hand-drawn animation winner in this category. The first, 21 years ago, was Miyazaki’s Spirited Away — his first-ever Oscar. Sunday’s win for Miyazaki and producer Toshio Suzuki caps off a solid awards season run for the film, which won the top honour for an animated feature at the Golden Globes and the BAFTA Film Awards. They were not present at the awards, but Studio Ghibli’s Kiyofumi Nakajima read a statement backstage from Suzuki. “Both Hayao Miyazaki and I have aged considerably,” he said through a translator. “I am grateful to receive such an honour at my age, and taking this as a message to continue our work, I will devote myself to work harder in the future.” It was Miyazaki’s fourth Oscar nomination for Best Animated Feature — tying with Pixar’s Pete Docter for the most nods in that category. Miyazaki began work on The Boy and the Heron not long after announcing in 2013 that he intended to retire from film — again. In journal excerpts from around that time released in the film’s press notes, Miyazaki writes: “There’s nothing more pathetic than telling the world you’ll retire because of your age, then making yet another comeback. “Doesn’t an elderly person deluding themself that they’re still capable, despite their geriatric forgetfulness, prove that they’re past their best?” he adds. “You bet it does.” Miyazaki worked through those concerns, and the resulting film earned him not only his second Oscar win on Sunday night, but his first No. 1 feature at the North American box office. The Boy and the Heron follows a boy named Mahito Maki who moves to the countryside after his mother’s death.

<p>In a shocking turn of events, a video has emerged on social media showing <em>Bigg Boss OTT 2</em> winner Elvish Yadav allegedly assaulting YouTuber Sagar Thakur, also known as Maxtern.

<p>The 2024 Oscar Awards is just a few hours away! Soon we will get to know who will bag the golden&nbsp;statuette for the Best Picture category. Before the big announcement, let's take a deep dive into why&nbsp;<em>Poor Things</em> stands out as a cinematic masterpiece that pushes the boundaries of storytelling and filmmaking.</p>

<p>Best Picture nominee <em>Poor Things</em>&nbsp;has captivated audiences and critics alike, earning 11 nominations at the 2024 Oscars. Directed by Yorgos Lanthimos and starring Emma Stone, the film is a darkly&nbsp;comedic and bizarre exploration of womanhood and self-discovery.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Set in a surreal world where the dead can be brought back to life, <em>Poor Things</em>&nbsp;explores themes of identity, independence, and sexuality in a delightfully bizarre manner. The film is&nbsp;unlike anything you would've&nbsp;ever seen before.</p>

<p>One of the key elements that sets <em>Poor Things</em>&nbsp;apart is its unique visual style. Lanthimos, known for his distinctive aesthetic, creates a world that is both familiar and unsettling. The film's cinematography, by longtime Lanthimos collaborator Thimios Bakatakis, is striking, with each frame carefully composed to enhance the film's surreal atmosphere.</p>

The supporting cast, including Mark Ruffalo, Christopher Abbott,&nbsp;Margaret Qualley, and Ramy Youssef, also deliver standout performances, bringing depth and complexity to their characters.</p>

<p>But perhaps the most compelling aspect of <em>Poor Things</em>&nbsp;is its storytelling. Adapted from the 1992 novel by Alasdair Gray, the film weaves together multiple narrative threads to create a rich tapestry of themes and ideas.</p>

Oscar Awards 2024 Best Picture Nominee: What makes Poor Things a cinematic masterpiece?

<p>Just one day before the 96th Academy Awards, controversy has erupted surrounding the film <em>The Holdovers</em>, directed by Alexander Payne and written by David Hemingson. The film, which is nominated for Best Original Screenplay, is now facing plagiarism accusations from Hollywood writer Simon Stephenson, known for his work on the film <em>Luca</em>.</p>

<p>Stephenson has claimed that <em>The Holdovers</em>&nbsp;bears striking similarities to his unproduced screenplay, <em>Frisco</em>. Both scripts allegedly share significant story elements, character arcs, and dialogue. Stephenson presented documents to support his claim, including drafts of <em>Frisco</em>&nbsp;sent to Payne in 2013 and 2019.</p>

<p>"The meaningful entirety of the screenplay for THE HOLDOVERS has been copied from the FRISCO screenplay by transposition," one document stated. "This includes the FRISCO screenplay’s entire story, structure, sequencing, scenes, sequential sub-beats within scenes, line-by-line substance of action and dialogue, characters, arcs, relationships, theme and tone."</p>

<p>American rapper and singer Doja Cat has announced that she is taking a break from Instagram, citing how she's been treated on the platform. The Grammy winner expressed her feelings in a now-deleted post, stating that the way she's spoken to and treated on Instagram has led to "fu***d up thoughts".</p>

<p>"Hey, I’m gonna deactivate because I’m not really feeling this anymore,"&nbsp;wrote Doja. "The way I'm spoken to on here and treated makes me have fu***d up thoughts. Please watch how you talk to and about people on the internet."</p>

<p>In her post, Doja, also known as Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini, mentioned that she comes to the platform to find inspiration and see creativity but feels that the negativity has become too much to handle.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"You guys take care of yourselves. I like coming here to find inspo and see people being creative, but I just feel like this is getting to be too much," she wrote.</p>

<p>With 24.4 million followers, the singer is known for her hit songs like "Say So" and "Woman."</p>

<p>As the 96th Oscars ceremony approaches, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) is gearing up for potential protests surrounding the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. With concerns over disruptions to the prestigious event, the LAPD has announced plans to increase its presence to ensure the safety of guests and the smooth running of the awards show.</p>

<p>According to reports in The New York Times, the LAPD has received intelligence suggesting that at least one group intends to disrupt the Academy Awards. This information was gleaned in part from social media posts. In response, the LAPD is taking proactive measures to address any potential disruptions.</p>

<p>Commander Randy Goddard of the LAPD stated, "It’s going to be our goal to ensure that the Academy Awards is successful, that guests can arrive safely and get into the venue." He further emphasised the department's commitment to respecting protesters' First Amendment rights while maintaining order and safety.</p>

<p>While some groups may attempt to block traffic or employ other disruptive tactics, others may choose to protest in the vicinity of the Dolby Theater, where the Oscars will be held. The LAPD has indicated that it will deploy additional resources to facilitate peaceful protests, but will not tolerate any actions that break the law or jeopardise the safety of guests.</p>

On March 8, 2024, in Los Angeles, California, the Schitt's Creek superstar, Eugene Levy, attended the star ceremony in which he was honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

<p>A Vermont man on Friday pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of negligent driving with death resulting in the June crash that killed actor Treat Williams. Ryan Koss, 35, who knew Williams, was given a one-year deferred sentence and as part of his probation will have his driving license revoked for a year and must complete a community restorative justice program on the misdemeanor charge.</p>

<p>Koss was turning left into a parking lot in a Honda SUV on June 12 when he collided with Williams’ oncoming motorcycle in Dorset, police said. Williams, 71, of Manchester Center, who was wearing a helmet, suffered critical injuries and was airlifted to Albany Medical Center in Albany, New York, where he was pronounced dead, police said.</p>

<p>After the crash, Koss called Williams’ wife to tell her what happened, said Bennington County State’s Attorney Erica Marthage, who said Koss from the beginning had taken responsibility for the accident.</p>

<p>In the emotional hearing on Friday, Koss apologized and offered condolences to Williams’ family and fans. The managing creative director of the Dorset Theatre Festival in Vermont knew Williams for years as a member of the tight-knit community, as well as a fellow theatre member, and considered him a friend.</p>

<p>“I’m here to apologize and take responsibility for this tragic accident,” he told the court.</p>

<p>Williams’ son Gill, 32, wore his father’s jacket and spoke directly to Koss, whom he had met before the crash. The family did not want to press charges or have Koss go to prison, he said.</p>

<p>“I do forgive you, and I hope that you forgive yourself,” he said. But he also added, “I really wish you hadn’t killed my father. I really had to say that.”</p>

<p>Gill Williams said his father was “everything” to their family and an extraordinary person who lived life to the fullest, and it’s now hard to figure out how to go forward.</p>

<p>His father had given him the motorcycle the day before the crash, and he was “the safest person in the world,” Gill Williams said.</p>

<p>“It’s very difficult to have this happen based on someone’s negligence,” he said, urging people to take driving a lot more seriously and to look out for motorcycles. Statements from Williams’ wife, Pam, and his daughter, who both did not attend the court hearing, were read aloud.</p>

<p>Pam Williams said in her statement that it was a tragic accident and that she hoped Koss could forgive himself.</p>

A Vermont man on Friday pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of negligent driving with death resulting in the June crash that killed actor Treat Williams.

A Vermont man on Friday pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of negligent driving with death resulting in the June crash that killed actor Treat Williams. Ryan Koss, 35, who knew Williams, was given a one-year deferred sentence and as part of his probation will have his driving license revoked for a year and must complete a community restorative justice program on the misdemeanor charge. Koss was turning left into a parking lot in a Honda SUV on June 12 when he collided with Williams’ oncoming motorcycle in Dorset, police said. Williams, 71, of Manchester Center, who was wearing a helmet, suffered critical injuries and was airlifted to Albany Medical Center in Albany, New York, where he was pronounced dead, police said. After the crash, Koss called Williams’ wife to tell her what happened, said Bennington County State’s Attorney Erica Marthage, who said Koss from the beginning had taken responsibility for the accident. In the emotional hearing on Friday, Koss apologized and offered condolences to Williams’ family and fans. The managing creative director of the Dorset Theatre Festival in Vermont knew Williams for years as a member of the tight-knit community, as well as a fellow theatre member, and considered him a friend. “I’m here to apologize and take responsibility for this tragic accident,” he told the court. Williams’ son Gill, 32, wore his father’s jacket and spoke directly to Koss, whom he had met before the crash. The family did not want to press charges or have Koss go to prison, he said. Also read: 'We've forgotten our humanity': Meghan Markle on social media toxicity: “I do forgive you, and I hope that you forgive yourself,” he said. But he also added, “I really wish you hadn’t killed my father. I really had to say that.” Gill Williams said his father was “everything” to their family and an extraordinary person who lived life to the fullest, and it’s now hard to figure out how to go forward. His father had given him the motorcycle the day before the crash, and he was “the safest person in the world,” Gill Williams said. “It’s very difficult to have this happen based on someone’s negligence,” he said, urging people to take driving a lot more seriously and to look out for motorcycles. Statements from Williams’ wife, Pam, and his daughter, who both did not attend the court hearing, were read aloud. Pam Williams said in her statement that it was a tragic accident and that she hoped Koss could forgive himself. “Our lives will never be the same, our family has been torn apart and there is a huge hole that can’t possibly be filled,” Pam Williams wrote in her statement. Daughter Ellie Williams wrote in her statement that she was too angry and hurt at this time to forgive Koss but hopes she will in the future. “I will never get to feel my father’s hug again; be able to get his advice again, introduce him to my future husband, have him walk me down the aisle, introduce him to my babies, and have him cry when I name my first son after him,” a victim’s advocate said in reading her statement.

<p><em>Kalki 2898 AD</em>&nbsp;marks the first collaboration of director Nag Ashwin and Prabhas.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Talking about the movie, Nag Ashwin&nbsp;revealed&nbsp;that the movie will travel from the time of Mahabharat to 2898 AD.&nbsp;</p>

<p>“I just wish definitely that there was more tech to help us make this film, like three-four years back when we were in preproduction. We are creating this new world like I am just looking at this picture right now on the screen, and all these different worlds that we are trying to create, we work with so many different concept artists and giving prompts, obviously, again, in a very personal, one on one sort of way, and try to give references and build this world,” the filmmaker said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Explaining further, Ashwin said, “For example, our film starts in Mahabharat and it ends in 2898. That’s the title of the film, it’s called Kalki 2898 AD. It spans 6,000 years of distance and time. So trying to create worlds that are there here, imagining what it could be like, still keeping it Indian and not make it look like a Blade Runner.”&nbsp;</p>

<p>The film has been made at a&nbsp;whooping budget of Rs 600 crore, making it the most expensive Indian film to date.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Paul Simon’s latest honor places him among public figures well outside the music industry. He is this year’s winner of PEN America’s PEN/Audible Literary Service Award, which previously has been given to former President Barack Obama, the late Nobel laureate Toni Morrison and Stephen King among others.</p>

<p>The 82-year-old Simon is known for such classic songs as “Bridge Over Troubled Water” and “The Sound of Silence” and for his globe-spanning musical tastes, from Brazil to South Africa to his native New York City. Later this month, he will be featured in the MGM+ docuseries “In Restless Dreams: The Music of Paul Simon.”</p>

<p>“Paul Simon has inspired fans worldwide with lyrics and songs that entire generations know by heart and can recognize from the very first notes,” PEN America CEO Suzanne Nossel said in a statement Thursday. “His fascination with different cultures, traditions and rhythms have helped open our ears and minds to essential musical traditions. We are elated to pay tribute to this unparalleled creative artist whose music, along with his commitment to humane values and humanitarian causes, has made him a cultural icon.”</p>

<p>Simon will receive his award at PEN’s annual gala, to be held May 16 at the American Museum of Natural History in Manhattan. Last year, PEN presented the literary prize to a longtime friend of Simon’s, “Saturday Night Live” creator Lorne Michaels.</p>

<p>On Thursday, PEN also announced it was presenting its Business Visionary award to Almar Latour, CEO of Dow Jones and publisher of The Wall Street Journal. PEN, a prominent advocate for free expression, cited his efforts to bring about the release of Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, who has been held in Russia for nearly a year on allegations of espionage.</p>

<p>“At a time when facts and truth are in question, the Wall Street Journal’s role as a source of credible, reported news is indispensable,” PEN President Jennifer Finney Boylan said in a statement. “Almar’s commitment to delivering trusted news and information and building sustainable news operations is a lifelong calling.

<p>Ask fans before you fall in love! Should celebrities&nbsp;seek permission from their millions of fans before loving a person? The question was triggered in minds of several people after&nbsp;K-pop singer Karina issued an apology for being in love.</p>

<p>Karina, who is from a group called Aespa, recently made a public apology for dating. A few days back, the K-pop star's relationship with actor Lee Jae-wook was made public. While some fans were happy for the singer,&nbsp;a section of her fanbase expressed shock, asking whether fans' love is not enough for her.&nbsp;</p>

<p>After a huge backlash, Karina went on to apologise on social media.&nbsp;In a&nbsp;handwritten note shared on her Instagram which had 12.7 million followers, the Korean singer addressed the matter saying that she expressed her “sincere apologies” to those who are hurt.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"I'm fully aware of how much MYs (the name of the group's fan club), who have supported me, would have been disappointed in me to think of all the stories that we shared together," the letter read.</p>

Ask fans before you fall in love! Should celebrities seek permission from their millions of fans before loving a person? The question was triggered in minds of several people after K-pop singer Karina issued an apology for being in love. Karina, who is from a group called Aespa, recently made a public apology for dating. A few days back, the K-pop star's relationship with actor Lee Jae-wook was made public. While some fans were happy for the singer, a section of her fanbase expressed shock, asking whether fans' love is not enough for her. After a huge backlash, Karina went on to apologise on social media. In a handwritten note shared on her Instagram which had 12.7 million followers, the Korean singer addressed the matter saying that she expressed her “sincere apologies” to those who are hurt. "I'm fully aware of how much MYs (the name of the group's fan club), who have supported me, would have been disappointed in me to think of all the stories that we shared together," the letter read.

I have always been sincere to MYs and each and every one of you are so precious to me. Thank you for reading this short text, which is not enough to show you everything that I feel, and I promise to show you how I will work harder to not let you down," it further read. Soon after her love affair was made public, netizens were quick to slam her decision to date so early in her career. Fans went on to the extent of showing their anger outside the headquarters of Karina’s agency, as per the Chosun Ilbo newspaper. Billboards, reading, “Do you not get enough love from your fans?” emerged at the protest site. View this post on Instagram A post shared by KARINA (@katarinabluu) × “Please apologize directly.

<p>Trouble brewed for American rapper Danielle Bregoli, famously known as Bhad Bhabie, as a heated argument with her boyfriend, Le Vaughn, allegedly escalated into chaos at an Los Angeles&nbsp;restaurant over the weekend. TMZ obtained footage revealing the tense exchange between the couple just moments before a brawl erupted involving the American rapper's entourage.</p>

<p>In the newly surfaced video, Bhad Bhabie can be seen visibly upset, engaged in a heated exchange with Le Vaughn. While the exact cause of their argument remains unclear, Danielle appeared visibly angered by the confrontation.</p>

<p>The argument unfolded shortly before a physical altercation broke out between Bhad Bhabie's friends and another group at the restaurant.

<p>Although Danielle's representatives claimed that she was not directly involved in the violence, eyewitnesses alleged that she and Le Vaughn were also involved in the physical altercation.
