<p>Grammy-winning rapper Cardi B recently visited an NYPD 'Girls Talk' event at the police training academy in Queens and revealed&nbsp;"her rags to riches story". She spoke to some girls in a police mentorship programme last&nbsp;Friday as part of an "eye-opening and emotional week performing court-mandated community service".</p>

<p>Cardi's plea deal required her to perform 15 days of community service till March 1st to avoid a 15-day prison sentence for her role in some brawls at New York City strip clubs in 2018.</p>

<p>The 30-year-old told her young audience, "I feel like there are so many people that make y’all probably feel like, ‘This is what’s cool, this is what’s going on, this is what it takes to be lit, this is what it takes to be fire’."</p>

<p>She added, "Sometimes that’s a little bit of peer pressure like on a girl. Don’t fall into that. You know what I’m saying? Like, be great. Be you. You’re amazing. You’re dope yourself."</p>

<p>The NYPD posted a video on Twitter showing highlights of their event. Check it out below!</p>

<p>The department's move has drawn criticism from some people, including a retired police lieutenant, who questioned whether the rapper was an appropriate role model for the young girls given her past controversies, provocative lyrics, criminal record and past admission that she drugged and robbed men while working as a stripper before she got famous.</p>

<p>In September last year, Cardi B agreed to a conditional discharge just as her case was about to go to trial. She pleaded guilty to two misdemeanour charges stemming from the August 2018 fights.

<p>In an official statement at the time, Cardi B said, "Part of growing up and maturing is being accountable for your actions.

<p>According to prosecutors, Cardi B and her entourage had targetted employees of Angels Strip Club in Flushing, Queens, over an alleged personal dispute. In one of the fights, a bartender and an employee sustained minor injuries as chairs, bottles and hookah pipes were thrown.</p>

In the now-viral post, she is seen&nbsp;in a gun-wielding action avatar, along with Richard Madden and Stanley Tucci.</p>

<p>The upcoming spy series <em>Citadel </em>is created and produced by Anthony and Joe Russo. The project is a multi-series franchise with the main series based in the US and UK and local productions being made in India, Italy, Spain, and Mexico. The Indian version of the series is being written, directed, and produced by The Family Man creators Raj and DK and is headlined by Varun Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu.</p>

Priyanka Chopra shares FIRST look from Citadel, the second most expensive series of all time

<p>Rapper Kodak Black could soon get arrested by cops in Florida since he allegedly violated his bail conditions by failing a drug test earlier this month. According to the latest reports, a Florida judge has issued an arrest warrant against the 25-year-old rapper and he is wanted by police officials.</p>

<p>The warrant was issued by the judge on Thursday after the "Super Gremlin" rapper, whose legal name is Bill Kapri, failed to appear for a scheduled drug test during the first week of February and then days later when he submitted a sample, it tested positive for fentanyl, according to court records obtained by TMZ.</p>

<p>In the warrant issued by Broward County Judge Barbara Duffy, Kodak has been accused of violating the conditions of his pretrial release for an oxycodone trafficking charge from July. The paperwork says that Kodak must be taken into custody if any sheriff's deputies encounter him.</p>

<p>Black had pleaded not guilty to the trafficking charge. For those unaware, he was arrested in July for possession of a controlled substance without a prescription along with trafficking.</p>

<p>Cops say they found upwards of 31 oxycodone pills in his car, which was checked during a traffic stop in Florida. He posted $75,000 bail and was released on the condition that he stays clean.</p>

<p>British singer and songwriter Harry Styles, 29, recently stopped his Brisbane gig to help a young man propose to his girlfriend in front of a massive crowd. A concert-goer shared a clip of the adorable moment on TikTok and in no time, it went&nbsp;viral and received thousands of likes.&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to a report by Daily Mail, the singer stopped his concert halfway after reading a placard that said, "Make my boyfriend propose."&nbsp;Styles then asked his team to hand over a microphone to the fan, who has been identified as Stevan Filiposki, so that he could propose to his girlfriend, Connie Morrison.</p>

<p>Before turning to his ladylove, the fan said, "I just want to say how good Harry Styles is." He then popped the big question as the crowd cheered. "But there's somebody I love more. Will you marry me?" he asked.</p>

<p>"Stevan sounds like the nicest guy ever," Styles commented before dedicating his song "Cinema"&nbsp;to them.</p>

<p>Former producer&nbsp;Harvey Weinstein on Thursday was sentenced to 16 years in prison over the charge of raping a European actress in a Beverly Hills hotel room a decade ago.</p>

<p>The 70-year-old producer who is already serving a 23-year sentence over a sex crimes conviction in New York was handed the latest sentence by a Los Angeles court.</p>

<p>Weinstein attended the hearing in a wheelchair, and requested, "Please don't sentence me to life in prison. I don't deserve it. There are so many things wrong with this case."</p>

<p>However, Judge Lisa Lench handed him three consecutive sentences including forcible oral copulation, sexual penetration by a foreign object, and forcible rape, which totals 16 years.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The actress, whose identity has not been revealed, urged Lench to give Weinstein "the maximum sentence allowable," which would have been 18 years.</p>

<p>She said, "His selfish, disgusting actions have greatly impacted my life. There is no prison sentence long enough to undo the damage."</p>

Harvey Weinstein sentenced to 16 years in prison in LA sexual assault case

<p>Award-winning filmmaker Steven Spielberg, who has helmed projects like <em>West Side Story, The Fabelmans,</em> <em>Lincoln </em>and <em>War Horse</em>, has no regrets about turning down the offer to direct the first <em>Harry Potter</em> movie in 2001 because it enabled him to spend more time with his wife Kate Capshaw and watch his children grow.</p>

<p>For those uninitiated, the 76-year-old director was asked to helm <em>Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone</em>, the first movie in the wizardry franchise based on JK Rowling's best-selling novels. However, he&nbsp;snubbed the movie so that he could spend more time with his family rather than on a film set.</p>

<p>"The personal meaning about (how the conflict between) art and family will tear you in half happened to me later, after I had already established myself as a filmmaker, as a working director," Spielberg told Indian director&nbsp;SS Rajamouli.</p>

<p>"There were several films I chose not to make. I chose to turn down the first <em>Harry Potter</em>&nbsp;to basically spend the next year and a half with my family, my young kids growing up," he shared. "So I'd sacrificed a great franchise, which today looking back I'm very happy to have done, to be with my family."</p>

<p>"Kate and I started raising a family and we started having children. The choice I had to make in taking a job that would move me to another country for four of five months where I wouldn't see my family every day," Spielberg added.</p>

<p>Spielberg shares seven children with his ex-wife Amy Irving and his current wife Kate Capshaw. A son&nbsp;Max, 37, with his first wife Amy Irving. And, kids Theo, 34, Sasha, 32, Sawyer, 30, Mikaela, 28, Destry, 26, and step-daughter Jessica Capshaw, 46, with wife Kate Capshaw.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The <em>Sorcerer's Stone</em> was helmed by Chris Columbus. He&nbsp;earned three Oscar nominations and made young actors Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint international stars.&nbsp;</p>

Steven Spielberg reveals why he doesn't regret turning down Harry Potter franchise

<p>At Monday's Oscar nominees luncheon, the Will Smith-Chris Rock slap incident&nbsp;sat front and centre. So much so that Janet Yang,&nbsp;president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences,&nbsp;neither had to describe it nor had to say the names of the two parties involved in the incident.</p>

<p>Speaking in front of a ballroom full of award hopefuls including Tom Cruise, Angela Bassett, Cate Blanchett and Steven Spielberg, Yang aired her regrets for last year's "unprecedented event".</p>

<p>She said, "I’m sure you all remember we experienced an unprecedented event at the Oscars. What happened onstage was wholly unacceptable and the response from our organization was inadequate."</p>

<p>Many feel that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences did little in response to Smith storming the stage and slapping Rock across the face during last year’s Oscars telecast or in the immediate aftermath. After nearly two weeks, the&nbsp;board of governors voted to ban Smith from the Oscars and all other academy events for a decade. Smith had already preemptively resigned as an academy member.</p>

<p>"We learned from this that the academy must be fully transparent and accountable in our actions,"&nbsp;Yang said.&nbsp;"And particularly in times of crisis, you must act swiftly, compassionately and decisively for ourselves and for our industry. You should and can expect no less from us going forward."</p>

<p>Yang, who was not president at the time, was interrupted by a mild round of applause and did not elaborate further, moving on to happier topics.</p>

<p>She was met with whooping applause when told the nominees that all categories will be shown live on the March 12 ABC telecast. Last year, in a controversy largely eclipsed by the slap, several Oscars were handed out in a pre-telecast ceremony and edited versions of winners’ speeches were squeezed into the main show.</p>

<p>The luncheon is a warm, feel-good affair where nominees are in general treated with equality, and a relatively unknown nominee up for best animated short might be seated next to an A-lister up for the best actor.</p>

<p>Some, of course, attract more attention than others and don’t need to wear the nametags handed out to all.</p>

<p>Tom Cruise, nominated as a producer for best picture candidate <em>Top Gun: Maverick</em>, managed briefly to mix in with the crowd in a ballroom at the Beverly Hilton before he attracted a crowd of gawkers.</p>

<p>He and Jamie Lee Curtis, up for best supporting actress for <em>Everything Everywhere All at Once</em>,&nbsp;pressed their foreheads together and giggled when they bumped into each other.</p>

<p>He smiled widely as he posed for photos with his old <em>War of the Worlds</em>&nbsp;and <em>Minority Report</em>&nbsp;collaborator Steven Spielberg, up for best director for <em>The Fabelmans</em>,&nbsp;and Michelle Yeoh, up for best actress for <em>Everything Everywhere All at Once</em>,&nbsp;the year’s most nominated film.</p>

<p>In a pairing representative of the random-seeming seating chart, Odessa Rae, producer of the nominated documentary feature <em>Navalny</em>,&nbsp;chatted with table-mate and best actor nominee Colin Farrell during the lunch of risotto and oyster mushrooms cut to resemble scallops.</p>

<p>At another table nearby, Brian Tyree Henry, best-supporting actor nominee for <em>Causeway</em>,&nbsp;laughed with Jenny Slate, voice star of animated feature nominee <em>Marcel the Shell With Shoes On</em>.</p>

<p>The centrepiece of the luncheon is the class picture, the staging of which feels like a high school graduation. An academy governor read off the names of 182 nominees and their peers cheered as they walked up and took their spots on the risers.</p>

<p>"Jamie Lee Curtis," producer DeVon Franklin enunciated loudly into the mic. Curtis leapt up and got a big ovation as she climbed alone to the top tier. Henry, a first-time nominee, stood at his table, raised an arm in the air and yelped when his name was called.</p>

<p>Ke Huy Quan, another first-timer, up for best supporting actor for <em>Everything Everywhere All at Once</em>,&nbsp;ran up to his spot in front and shook his fists in triumph. He hugged <em>Babylon</em>&nbsp;composer Justin Hurwitz, assigned to stand next to him.</p>

<p>Bassett, nominated for best supporting actress for <em>Black Panther: Wakanda Forever</em>,&nbsp;got one of the afternoon’s biggest cheers when her name was called and hugged Cruise when she got to her spot next to him.</p>

<p>The luncheon also functions as an Oscar orientation for would-be winners. Yang emphasised that acceptance speeches at next month’s ceremony have to be kept to 45 seconds. "Let’s say it together, 45 seconds," she told the crowd. They repeated it back to her in unison, though at least a few are sure to forget or ignore her&nbsp;once they get the statue in their hands.</p>

Also read: Tom Cruise makes his first red carpet appearance in 8 months for Oscar nominees luncheon Yang, who was not president at the time, was interrupted by a mild round of applause and did not elaborate further, moving on to happier topics. She was met with whooping applause when told the nominees that all categories will be shown live on the March 12 ABC telecast. Last year, in a controversy largely eclipsed by the slap, several Oscars were handed out in a pre-telecast ceremony and edited versions of winners’ speeches were squeezed into the main show. The luncheon is a warm, feel-good affair where nominees are in general treated with equality, and a relatively unknown nominee up for best animated short might be seated next to an A-lister up for the best actor. Some, of course, attract more attention than others and don’t need to wear the nametags handed out to all. Tom Cruise, nominated as a producer for best picture candidate Top Gun: Maverick, managed briefly to mix in with the crowd in a ballroom at the Beverly Hilton before he attracted a crowd of gawkers. He and Jamie Lee Curtis, up for best supporting actress for Everything Everywhere All at Once, pressed their foreheads together and giggled when they bumped into each other.

In a pairing representative of the random-seeming seating chart, Odessa Rae, producer of the nominated documentary feature Navalny, chatted with table-mate and best actor nominee Colin Farrell during the lunch of risotto and oyster mushrooms cut to resemble scallops. At another table nearby, Brian Tyree Henry, best-supporting actor nominee for Causeway, laughed with Jenny Slate, voice star of animated feature nominee Marcel the Shell With Shoes On. The centrepiece of the luncheon is the class picture, the staging of which feels like a high school graduation. An academy governor read off the names of 182 nominees and their peers cheered as they walked up and took their spots on the risers. "Jamie Lee Curtis," producer DeVon Franklin enunciated loudly into the mic. Curtis leapt up and got a big ovation as she climbed alone to the top tier. Henry, a first-time nominee, stood at his table, raised an arm in the air and yelped when his name was called.

He hugged Babylon composer Justin Hurwitz, assigned to stand next to him. Bassett, nominated for best supporting actress for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, got one of the afternoon’s biggest cheers when her name was called and hugged Cruise when she got to her spot next to him. The luncheon also functions as an Oscar orientation for would-be winners. Yang emphasised that acceptance speeches at next month’s ceremony have to be kept to 45 seconds. "Let’s say it together, 45 seconds," she told the crowd. They repeated it back to her in unison, though at least a few are sure to forget or ignore her once they get the statue in their hands.

Oscars response to 'Will Smith slapgate' inadequate, academy head says

<p>This Sunday, Rihanna's Super Bowl comeback mostly drew positive reactions from viewers, however, former US President Donald Trump only had not-so-pleasant things to say about RiRi. Calling her 15-minute Super Bowl halftime performance an "epic fail" and the "worst halftime show" in the sporting event's history, Trump registered his reaction on his struggling social media website called Truth Social.</p>

<p>Trump's post read, "EPIC FAIL: Rihanna gave, without question, the single worst halftime show in Super Bowl history. This after insulting far more than half of our nation, which is already in serious DECLINE, with her foul and insulting language. Also so much for her 'stylist!'"</p>

<p>Trump's harsh critique of the pop star's performance comes as no surprise since Trump had started bashing RiRi even before she hit the stage at Arizona's State Farm Stadium. On Thursday, he said that the nine-time Grammy winner has "no talent" and would be "nothing without her stylist".</p>

<p>Trump made this statement in&nbsp;response to a Truth Social post by Ronny Jackson, the former White House physician and current US representative, who took issue with the 34-year-old being chosen for Super Bowl despite her liberal politics.&nbsp;</p>

Donald Trump disses Rihanna's Super Bowl performance; calls it 'epic fail'

<p>After bagging a Brit Award for the 'Producer of the Year' category, chart-topping DJ David Guetta said that "the future of music is in AI but only as a tool". The French producer revealed&nbsp;that he thinks musicians will use Artificial Intelligence as a tool to create new sounds in the future because "every new music style comes from a new technology".</p>

<p>Guetta's comments came days after he used two artificial intelligence sites to create lyrics and rap in the style of American rapper Eminem for a live show.</p>

<p>In conversation with BBC music correspondent Mark Savage at the Brit Awards, Guetta said, "I'm sure the future of music is in AI. For sure. There's no doubt. But as a tool."</p>

<p>"Nothing is going to replace the taste," Guetta continued. "What defines an artist is, you have a certain taste, you have a certain type of emotion you want to express, and you're going to use all the modern instruments to do that."</p>

<p>Iranian filmmaker Mohammad Rasoulof, who won the 2020 Berlin Golden Bear for 'There Is No Evil', has been temporarily released from Tehran’s Evin prison. He was arrested last July for criticising the Iranian government on social media.</p>

<p>The 50-year-old director was incarcerated for posting an appeal urging Iranian security forces to stop using force and weapons during May protests that were prompted by a building collapse in the southwestern city of Abadan.</p>

<p>He has now been released for health reasons and is at home, according to several reports coming from the region. The director’s lawyer, Maryam Kianersi, told French News Agency AFPT that his incarceration has been suspended only for two weeks due to medical reasons.</p>

<p>'There Is No Evil' producer Farzad Pak spoke to The Hollywood Reporter and confirmed Rasoulof's temporary release. "Mohammad was released on bail for medical reasons [but] there are still other accusations [against him] that the course hasn’t made a decision on yet,"&nbsp;said Pak. "They [the court] might take him back [into jail] or leave him in limbo."</p>

<p>Rasoulof’s temporary release comes days after filmmaker Jafar Panahi, who is his close friend, was released from Tehran’s Evin prison after announcing he was going on a hunger strike. Panahi is currently out on bail and his case will reportedly be reviewed in March.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Both Panahi and Rasoulof were sentenced to six years in prison in 2011 and were given a 20-year ban on filmmaking for their allegedly spreading "anti-regime&nbsp;propaganda". Rasoulof’s sentence was later suspended and he was released on bail. However, after the festival tour of his 2017 drama 'A Man of Integrity', which won Cannes’ Un Certain Regard prize for best film, Rasoulof's passport was confiscated and he was forbidden from leaving the country.</p>

<p>A video of Rajya Sabha MP Jaya Bachchan angrily pointing her finger at Vice President and Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar has gone viral. The actress-turned-politician, who is often trolled online for her public outbursts and her bittersweet interactions with the paparazzi, is seen walking out of the parliament during uproarious sessions over the Adani scam on February 9.</p>

<p>Jaya was standing in support of&nbsp;Congress Rajya Sabha MP Rajani Patil, who got&nbsp;suspended for the rest of the ongoing Budget Session for violating the directions of the chairman.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"I think it was done in a very humiliating manner. Shouldn't have happened. If they feel something wrong was done, they should've sent it to Committee. Don't know if they sent it. She wasn't given a chance to clarify," Bachchan said.</p>

<p>In no time, Jaya Bachchan started trending on Twitter and the viral video triggered a meme-fest online. Some angry Twitterati even slammed Bachchan on micro-blogging sites, calling her "arrogant and frustrated".</p>

<p>For the reception, Sidharth and Kiara opted for a fusion of Indo-western elements for their looks. The newlywed actress wore a Manish Malhotra monochrome evening gown which featured a long train while the actor looked dapper in a blingy black suit.&nbsp;Kiara’s jewellery, however, stole the show!</p>

<p>For accessories, Kiara opted for a very heavy emerald and diamond studded necklace which looked exquisite and gave a beautiful touch to the chic gown. She kept her hair tied back and opted for neutral-toned makeup.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The couple tied the knot in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan on February 7. They hosted their first reception for the groom’s family at The Leela Palace, Delhi on February 9.</p>

<p>The duo’s second reception was held at Mumbai’s St. Regis. It was a grand affair as many Bollywood celebs and industrialists attended the reception. Karan Johar, Shahid Kapoor, Manish Malhotra, Kareena Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Neetu Singh, Varun Dhawan, Mukesh Ambani’s son Akash Ambani with his wife Shloka Mehta, Ajay Devgn, Kajol and Rakul Preet Singh among others were seen arriving at the venue.</p>

<p>Sidharth and Kiara dated for a couple of years&nbsp;before getting hitched. However, they always remained tight-lipped about their relationship and even marriage plans. The two apparently fell in love while shooting their 2021&nbsp;film 'Shershaah'.&nbsp;</p>

And, who's who of B-town came down to the venue to bless the couple. Meanwhile, a video of the two lovebirds grooving on the viral sensation track 'Kala Chashma' surfaced online and went viral. The clip shows the two grooving to the song on the dance floor along with the guests. The video was shared by Sidharth's fan club on Instagram along with a caption, "Kala Chashma fever take over on #SidKiara wedding reception." Sung by Badshah and Neha Kakkar, 'Kala Chashma' song from 'Baar Baar Dekho' featured Katrina Kaif with Sidharth. Check out the viral video below!

The newlywed actress wore a Manish Malhotra monochrome evening gown which featured a long train while the actor looked dapper in a blingy black suit. Kiara’s jewellery, however, stole the show! For accessories, Kiara opted for a very heavy emerald and diamond studded necklace which looked exquisite and gave a beautiful touch to the chic gown. She kept her hair tied back and opted for neutral-toned makeup. The couple tied the knot in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan on February 7. They hosted their first reception for the groom’s family at The Leela Palace, Delhi on February 9. The duo’s second reception was held at Mumbai’s St. Regis. It was a grand affair as many Bollywood celebs and industrialists attended the reception. Karan Johar, Shahid Kapoor, Manish Malhotra, Kareena Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Neetu Singh, Varun Dhawan, Mukesh Ambani’s son Akash Ambani with his wife Shloka Mehta, Ajay Devgn, Kajol and Rakul Preet Singh among others were seen arriving at the venue. Sidharth and Kiara dated for a couple of years before getting hitched. However, they always remained tight-lipped about their relationship and even marriage plans. The two apparently fell in love while shooting their 2021 film 'Shershaah'. WATCH WION LIVE HERE You can now write for wionews.com and be a part of the community.

Newlyweds Sidharth Malhotra, Kiara Advani groove to 'Kala Chashma' at their wedding reception

<p>David Jude Jolicoeur, known widely as Trugoy the Dove and one of the founding members of the Long Island hip-hop trio De La Soul, has died. He was 54. His representative Tony Ferguson confirmed the reports on Sunday. No other information was immediately available.</p>

<p>In recent years, Jolicoeur had said he was battling congestive heart failure, living with a LifeVest machine affixed to his person. De La Soul was part of the hip-hop tribute at the Grammy Awards last week, but Trugoy was not onstage with his fellow bandmates.</p>

<p>Tributes poured in on social media shortly after the news broke Sunday.</p>

<p>“Dave! It was an honour to share so many stages with you,” wrote rapper Big Daddy Kane on Instagram.</p>

<p>Rapper Erik Sermon posted on Instagram, “This one hurts. From Long Island from one of the best rap groups in Hiphop # Delasoul #plug2 Dave has passed away you will be missed… RIP.”</p>

<p>Young Guru added, “Rest in peace my brother. You were loved. @plugwondelasoul I love you brother we are here for you. Smiles I love you bro. This is crazy” and DJ Semtex wrote that it was “heart-wrenching news.”</p>

<p>'Luke Cage' showrunner Cheo Hodari Coker wrote on Twitter that, “You don’t understand what De La Soul means to me. Their existence said to me, a black geek from Connecticut that yes, hip-hop belongs to you too, and Trugoy was the balance, McCartney to Pos Lennon, Keith to his Mick. This is a huge loss.”</p>

<p>Jolicoeur was born in Brooklyn but raised in the Amityville area of Long Island, where he met Vincent Mason (Pasemaster Mase) and Kelvin Mercer (Posdnuos) and the three decided to form a rap group, with each taking on distinctive names. Trugoy, Jolicoeur said, was backwards for “yoghurt.” More recently he’d been going by Dave.</p>

<p>De La Soul’s debut studio album '3 Feet High and Rising',&nbsp;produced by Prince Paul, was released in 1989 by Tommy Boy Records and praised for being a more light-hearted and positive counterpart to more charged rap offerings like N.W.A’s “Straight Outta Compton” and Public Enemy’s “It Takes a Nation of Millions” released just one year prior.</p>

<p>Sampling everyone from Johnny Cash and Steely Dan to Hall &amp; Oates, De La Soul signalled the beginning of alternative hip-hop. In Rolling Stone, critic Michael Azerrad called it the first “psychedelic hip-hop record.” Some even called them a hippie group, though the members didn’t quite like that.</p>

<p>In 2010, '3 Feet High and Rising' was added to the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress for its historic significance.</p>

<p>“It’s a hip-hop masterpiece for the era in which it was released,” Jolicoeur told Billboard earlier this year. “I think the element of that time of what was taking place in music, hip-hop, and our culture, I think it welcomed that and opened up minds and spirits to see and try new different things. ... I think the innocence that we had back then was brave, but we were in a time where innocence was so cool. Not sampling James Brown, but sampling Liberace; I think it was shocking (when) we came out (that) we sampled Liberace. I don’t know if it’d impact the same way (now).”</p>

<p>They followed with 'De La Soul Is Dead',&nbsp;in 1991, which was a bit darker and more divisive with critics, and “Stakes is High,” in 1996.</p>

<p>De La Soul released eight albums and in March were going to make their streaming service debut, on Spotify, Apple Music and others after a long battle with Tommy Boy Records about legal and publishing matters. The 2021 acquisition of Tommy Boy Records by Reservoir, with masters from the likes of De La Soul, Queen Latifah and Naughty By Nature, helped move things along and the full catalogue was set to debut on March 3.</p>

<p>“You think that you own your stuff and that now it’s on cruise control, waiting for the checks to come in. But it is not that way at all. There’s a lot to do,” Jolicoeur told Billboard. “You do need collaborators, you do need help, you do need to rework back into the system and not necessarily be the lone commissioner of this project. You need allies, you need companies to work with, and you need people to hire. And we learned a big lesson from that. It definitely wasn’t just, 'We got our masters back!'&nbsp;It ain’t that.”</p>

<p>Over the years, the group was nominated for six Grammy Awards, winning one for Best Pop Vocal Collaboration for the Gorillaz song 'Feel Good Inc'.</p>

<p>During the pandemic, he said, there were talks of solo albums and branching out — which weren’t new.</p>

<p>“We support each other in those ideas, but at the same time, I think the magic really happens when it’s the three of us,” he said. “I’m not trying to crack that formula, and I don’t think anyone else is, either.”</p>

<p>Asked what advice he would give to groups about how to stay together, he said you have to fight but remember you’re fighting for the team.</p>

<p>“Sometimes it’s about money, but then there’s an element of, we don’t get along because we haven’t been honest with each other. Get through that honesty, move on, and keep going — because it feels good going. Fight it out, get it all out, and come back knowing that you’re fighting for the team,” he said.</p>

Urvashi Rautela to star in much-anticipated prequel of Rishab Shetty-starrer 'Kantara'?

<p>Sir Elton John has reportedly increased his private gig fee amid the cost of living crisis, with the 'Rocket Man' singer believed to now be pocketing 4 million pounds ($4,825,602.72) for an intimate performance.</p>

<p>John's private gig fee has been reported - marking a 300 per cent fee increase for the star, reports mirror.co.uk.</p>

<p>The iconic singer is believed to be worth around 450 million pounds (USD 542,880,305) thanks to a career that has seen him top the album charts 10 times and bag 10 No. 1 singles, reports mirror.co.uk.</p>

<p>Elton, 75, has previously been raking in an eye-watering 1 million pounds for every hour of his time for a private performance.</p>

<p>But during the current cost of living crisis, the performer has been said to have added on an extra 3 million pounds for a wedding booking - and was understandably turned down by the spouses-to-be.</p>

<p>A source told The Sun: "It seems he's raised his fee in line with the cost of living soaring and now it's 3 million pounds more. The 4 million pounds fee was quoted earlier this year when Elton was approached to play at a wedding.</p>

<p>"Naturally the price changes depending on what is requested but it appears to have been hiked up. The couple turned it down because they couldn't afford it. There are super-rich fans around the world who can, though."</p>

<p>But one couple, billionaire Robert Kraft and his partner Dana Blumberg, who are long-time friends with Sir Elton, didn't have to pay a penny for the star to perform at their ceremony in New York last October.</p>

<p>In January this year, it was announced that the British legend's Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour was already the highest-grossing run of performances of all time, whilst the singer is also set to feature in a TV advert during the Super Bowl tomorrow night.</p>

<p>He became the biggest earner ever taking home a staggering USD 817.9 million (663.44 million pounds) with his latest Oceania leg of his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour.</p>

<p>With at least 50 European dates to come in 2023, including 10 nights at London's O2 Arena and a headline set at Glastonbury Festival, his estimated earnings are as much as 1 billion USD.</p>

Elton John charges 4 million pounds to sing at private wedding gigs

<p>SonyLIV series Rocket Boys Season 2 will soon premiere on the OTT platform. The makers of the show recently shared a new trailer online, which gives a glimpse of the new chapter in Indian scientists Dr Homi J Bhabha and Dr Vikram Sarabhai's professional lives.</p>

<p>This time, the series will show how India became a nuclear nation and how scientists conducted the nuclear bomb test in Pokhran in May 1974. Both Jim Sarbh and Ishwak Singh, who had won praise for their performances in the first season, will reprise their roles as Bhabha and Sarabhai, respectively.</p>

<p>Apart from a blast, we got&nbsp;a glimpse of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, who was serving as the country's Prime Minister at the time the first nuclear test was conducted. Arjun Radhakrishnan was also seen playing a young and enthusiastic APJ Abdul Kalam in the trailer.</p>

<p>"Amidst global conflict and enemies charging our borders, India becoming a nuclear nation was the only deterrent to imminent threats of war. Witness the incredible journey of India's greatest scientists shaping a new era where no one dared to challenge their country's sovereignty.&nbsp;Rocket Boys 2 will soon stream exclusively on Sony LIV!" the post's caption read.

SonyLIV series Rocket Boys Season 2 will soon premiere on the OTT platform. The makers of the show recently shared a new trailer online, which gives a glimpse of the new chapter in Indian scientists Dr Homi J Bhabha and Dr Vikram Sarabhai's professional lives. This time, the series will show how India became a nuclear nation and how scientists conducted the nuclear bomb test in Pokhran in May 1974. Both Jim Sarbh and Ishwak Singh, who had won praise for their performances in the first season, will reprise their roles as Bhabha and Sarabhai, respectively. Apart from a blast, we got a glimpse of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, who was serving as the country's Prime Minister at the time the first nuclear test was conducted. Arjun Radhakrishnan was also seen playing a young and enthusiastic APJ Abdul Kalam in the trailer. "Amidst global conflict and enemies charging our borders, India becoming a nuclear nation was the only deterrent to imminent threats of war. Witness the incredible journey of India's greatest scientists shaping a new era where no one dared to challenge their country's sovereignty.

South African rapper AKA, 35, shot dead in Durban

<p>The UK's biggest popular music prizes, the Brit Awards, will be handed out Saturday evening, with singer and actor Harry Styles and US star Beyonce tipped for top prizes. The awards ceremony will, for the second time, hand out a gender-neutral main prize for British artist of the year.</p>

<p>This was introduced last year to increase inclusivity after non-binary singer Sam Smith was automatically excluded from previously gendered categories in 2021. Yet, controversially, the category has an all-male shortlist this year, with debonair British songwriter and actor Styles expected to win and perform on the night.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The other shortlisted artists are Stormzy, rapper Central Cee, house musician and producer Fred Again and singer-songwriter George Ezra.</p>

<p>The Brit Awards chairman Damian Christian told Music Week this month that it was "disappointing to see the lack of female representation", blaming a lack of eligible 2022 releases by big female stars.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Styles is also the favourite to win the other top prize, British album of the year, for 'Harry's House' after earlier this month winning the coveted Grammy for album of the year.&nbsp;The record was the UK's biggest-selling album last year.</p>

<p>Styles has "just enjoyed a major triumph at the Grammys, pipping Beyoncé to the top gong of Best Album. "This is definitely his night," wrote the Evening Standard newspaper.</p>

<p>In consolation, Beyonce is widely predicted to win the international artist of the year category at the Brits, which she is not expected to attend in person.</p>

<p>The UK's 2022 Eurovision Song Contest entry, Sam Ryder, has gained a Brit nomination for best new artist -- becoming the first ever contestant from the flamboyant Europop event to do so.</p>

<p>Ryder came second at Eurovision with his song 'Space Man', losing to Ukraine. This was the UK's best showing at the contest for two decades. He also appeared at Platinum Jubilee celebrations and hosted the BBC's New Year's Eve show.</p>

<p>Stormzy will perform at the ceremony and is predicted to win in the best hip hop/grime/rap category. His album 'This is what I mean' has also been shortlisted for best album.</p>

<p>The Brit Awards were first held in 1977. The event is organised by the BPI, a trade body that represents the UK music industry.</p>

<p>Bollywood celebrity couple Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra tied the knot on Tuesday (February 7) at Suryagarh Palace in Jaisalmer. First photos of the couple as husband and wife have arrived online and they show the newlyweds smiling from ear to ear, dressed&nbsp;in beautiful ethnic attires.</p>

<p>After keeping every detail of the wedding extremely private for months, Kiara Advani took to her Instagram account a few hours after taking <em>pheras </em>(wedding vows) and wrote,&nbsp;"'<em>Ab humari permanent booking hogayi hai</em>' (Now, we are in a permanent booking.) We seek your blessings and love on our journey ahead." The line was borrowed from pair's hit film 'Shershaah'. The film, many believe led to the two actors dating in real life.</p>

Bollywood celebrity couple Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra tied the knot on Tuesday (February 7) at Suryagarh Palace in Jaisalmer. First photos of the couple as husband and wife have arrived online and they show the newlyweds smiling from ear to ear, dressed in beautiful ethnic attires. After keeping every detail of the wedding extremely private for months, Kiara Advani took to her Instagram account a few hours after taking pheras (wedding vows) and wrote, "'Ab humari permanent booking hogayi hai' (Now, we are in a permanent booking.) We seek your blessings and love on our journey ahead." The line was borrowed from pair's hit film 'Shershaah'. The film, many believe led to the two actors dating in real life.

<p>Singer-songwriter Harry Styles, who started his musical journey by competing in 'The X Factor' at the age of 16 in the year 2010, arrived at this year's Grammy in a jumpsuit covered with no less than&nbsp;250,000 Swarovski crystals in nine different colours.&nbsp;Once again, he proved that he is the king of jumpsuits! He also won a Grammy and made his fans proud by adding another feather to his already-decorated hat.</p>

<p>While many legendary artists received honours and got recognition at one of the biggest events in the music industry, some netizens caught a moment of Styles trying to dodge a question about Beyonce and the Album of the Year award. And, in no time, the singer started getting trolled across micro-blogging sites.&nbsp;</p>

<p>It all started when&nbsp;Styles made&nbsp;a stylish entry backstage after receiving his Grammy. When&nbsp;an interviewer asked Styles if he thought Beyoncé would win the Album of the Year award, he said he doesn't think anyone could look at the nominees and not feel like they all were deserving.</p>

<p>Without saying a yes or a no, he further replied, "When I look at this category, it’s all the people who have inspired me. These people have inspired me at different times. You can't predict who's winning. But, ya I am very grateful."</p>

Harry Styles brutally trolled for dodging question about Beyonce at Grammys

<p>It's confirmed! 'Scoop', which is a film about Prince Andrew's disastrous 'Newsnight' 2019 interview, will cast Gillian Anderson as former BBC news anchor Emily Maitlis, Rufus Sewell as the disgraced royal, Billie Piper as TV producer Sam McAlister, who negotiated and secured the interview, and Keeley Hawes as Andrew's former private secretary Amanda Thirsk.</p>

<p>The film is adapted from McAlister's book 'Scoops: Behind The Scenes of the BBC’s Most Shocking Interviews',&nbsp;which shares details of what actually happened behind the scenes of the interview, which is often considered&nbsp;the final nail in the coffin of Prince Andrew's public role.</p>

<p>Following its broadcast,&nbsp;he was effectively banned from appearing at most public events with the royals,&nbsp; stripped of many of his patronages and roles, and forbidden from using the honorific 'His Royal Highness'. Andrew however could appear in private family events, such as the funeral of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II.</p>

<p>Emmy and BAFTA winner Philip Martin will helm the project while Hilary Salmon and Radford Neville will bankroll the movie for The Lighthouse and Sanjay Singhal produces for Voltage TV.</p>

<p>"The inside track of the women that broke through the Buckingham Palace establishment to secure the scoop of the decade that led to the catastrophic fall from grace of The Queen's 'Favourite son,'" reads the film's logline. "From navigating Palace vetoes to breaking through to Prince Andrew's inner circle, the high stakes negotiations and intensity of rehearsal – to the jaw-dropping interview itself."</p>

<p>Lawmakers in Florida are proposing to give&nbsp;governor Ron DeSantis full control over the board overseeing Walt Disney Co.'s special district.&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to the latest reports, a new bill filed on Monday would give the governor power to appoint the five-member board of supervisors that runs&nbsp;the Reedy Creek Improvement District, which is a special government entity that has&nbsp;granted several benefits to Disney for over half a century. Those five appointees will then have to be confirmed by state senators.</p>

<p>The new rules also prevent people with ties to a&nbsp;theme park in the last three years from serving on the board.</p>

<p>"Florida is dissolving the corporate kingdom and beginning a new era of accountability and transparency," Bryan Griffin, DeSantis’ press secretary, said in an emailed statement. The former rules "gifted extraordinary special privileges to a single corporation."</p>

<p>Reedy Creek&nbsp;Improvement District is currently governed by a five-member board of supervisors, which are usually elected by local property owners, according to its charter. Given that most of the land within the district is owned by Disney and its affiliates, the company has out-sized decision-making power.</p>

<p>In a statement, Jeff Vahle, president of the Walt Disney World resort, stated that the company is monitoring the progress of the legislation. "Disney works under a number of different models and jurisdictions around the world, and regardless of the outcome, we remain committed to providing the highest quality experience for the millions of guests who visit each year,"&nbsp;he said.</p>

<p>DeSantis signed a law last year that would have dissolved Reedy Creek, which provides municipal functions such as infrastructure, water and emergency services to Walt Disney World Resort. The move was a response to what the Florida governor saw as Disney's criticism of a law he signed that limits elementary school teachings about gender identity.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The bill will be discussed in a Florida House state affairs committee hearing on Wednesday and is expected to be debated by the full legislature later this week. Eventually, a version will be brought to DeSantis for his signature.</p>

Florida governor set to gain control of Disney's district board in new bill

<p>Nathan Chasing Horse, who played a pivotal role in&nbsp;the 1990 American epic western film&nbsp;'Dances With Wolves'&nbsp;directed&nbsp;and produced by Kevin Costner,&nbsp;has been charged in Nevada for sexual assault crimes that prosecutors suggest occurred in Las Vegas starting in 2012.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The 46-year-old has been accused of sexually abusing Indigenous girls and women for nearly two decades in multiple states. He was formally charged on Monday morning during a brief appearance in a Las Vegas courtroom.</p>

<p>According to a criminal complaint, Chasing Horse is charged with eight felonies, including sexual assault against a child younger than 16,&nbsp;sex trafficking, and child abuse. Prosecutors also filed an additional felony charge against the actor on Monday in connection with what detectives said were videos saved on a phone showing sexual abuse against a minor.</p>

<p>After SWAT officers took him under custody last week, detectives searched his home and found guns. The officers also found&nbsp;18.5 kilograms of marijuana and psilocybin mushrooms in his apartment, according to the arrest report.</p>

<p>The criminal complaint, which was filed on Monday, also charges Chasing Horse with two misdemeanours in connection with a dead bald eagle and parts of a dead hawk discovered during the search of his property.</p>

<p>Chasing Horse was born on the Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota, which is home to the Sicangu Sioux, one of the seven tribes of the Lakota nation.</p>

<p>A judge postponed hearing arguments about his custody status until Wednesday to give Chasing Horse’s new California-based attorney, Alexandra Kazaria, additional time to obtain permission from the State Bar of Nevada to represent him in the case.</p>

<p>Nevada law requires prosecutors to present convincing evidence that a defendant should remain in custody. Clark County Deputy District Attorney Jessica Walsh said last week that she expected testimony from Las Vegas police detectives, FBI special agents and victims.</p>

<p>In the meantime, Chasing Horse is currently held without bail at a jail in downtown Las Vegas. He has been in custody since his January 31 arrest near the North Las Vegas home he shares with his five wives.</p>

<p>Seated in front of Chasing Horse's family on Monday were some of the victims and their supporters, who held signs inside the courtroom reading, "NO MORE STOLEN SISTERS" and "WOMEN AREN’T PRISONERS."</p>

<p>The actor refused to enter a plea on Monday after he was formally charged. In Nevada, defendants do not usually enter a plea until their criminal case is bound over to a state district court, either after a grand jury indictment or after a judge decides prosecutors have enough evidence for the defendant to stand trial.</p>

<p>Chasing Horse shot to fame for playing the role of Sioux tribe member - Smiles a Lot - in Kevin Costner’s 1990 Oscar-winning film. Since then, he has built a reputation among tribes across the United States and in Canada as the "medicine man".&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to the police, Chasing Horse abused his position and took several underage wives over two decades in multiple states, including South Dakota, Montana and Nevada. He also was banished from the Fort Peck Reservation in Poplar, Montana, in 2015 following similar allegations.</p>

<p>In a 50-page search warrant, investigators described the actor as the leader of a cult known as 'The Circle', whose followers believed he could communicate with higher powers.</p>

<p>At least six victims of the actor's heinous crimes have been identified, including one who was 13 when she said she was abused by Chasing Horse, and another who said she was offered to him as a "gift" when she was just 15.</p>

'Dances with Wolves' actor Nathan Chasing Horse charged in Nevada sex abuse case

<p>Hollywood star Salma Hayek got candid about her journey in Hollywood in a recent interview and revealed that she had to wait over a decade to star in romantic-comedy films because people considered her too sexy for the genre.</p>

<p>While speaking to GQ UK, the actress recently shared&nbsp;that Hollywood blocked her from starring in a comedy movie for over a decade.</p>

<p>"I was typecast for a long time," Hayek told the magazine. "My entire life I wanted to do comedy and people wouldn't give me comedies. I couldn't land a role until I met Adam Sandler, who put me in a comedy [2010's 'Grown Ups'], but I was in my forties! They said, 'You're sexy, so you're not allowed to have a sense of humour.' Not only are you not allowed to be smart, but you were not allowed to be funny in the '90s."</p>

<p>Although Hayek played parts in romantic comedies such as 1997's 'Fools Rush In'&nbsp;and 'Breaking Up', she shared that it wasn't until Adam Sandler gave her a chance to act in the 2010 film 'Grown-Ups', which she considers a traditional comedy movie.&nbsp;</p>

<p>When asked if she ever felt furious or sad about being typecast, the actress said, "I was sad at the time. But now here I am doing every genre, in a time in my life when they told me I would have expired -- that the last 20 years I would have been out of business. So I'm not sad, I'm not angry; I'm laughing. I'm laughing, girl."</p>

<p>Hayek will be next seen in Steven Soderbergh's 'Magic Mike's Last Dance', which is set to hit the theatres on February 10. In the final instalment of the 'Magic Mike' franchise, Hayek will be seen as the older love interest of Channing Tatum's eponymous stripper.&nbsp;</p>
