<p>American pop sensation Taylor Swift, on Friday, addressed the widespread criticism&nbsp;over Ticketmaster's handling of ticket sales for her The Eras tour. In a social media post, she slammed the company for the chaotic ticket sale that landed them in an antitrust investigation by the US justice department,&nbsp;writing that it was "excruciating" to just watch mistakes happen with no recourse.&nbsp;The investigation will look into whether Ticketmaster's parent company Live Nation Entertainment has abused its power in the multibillion-dollar live entertainment industry and to which extent.</p>

<p>Swift's statement read, "Well. It goes without saying that I’m extremely protective of my fans. We’ve been doing this for decades together and over the years, I’ve brought so many elements of my career in house. I’ve done this SPECIFICALLY to improve the quality of my fans’ experience by doing it myself with my team who care as much about my fans as I do."</p>

<p>The singer continued, "It’s really difficult for me to trust an outside entity with these relationships and loyalties, and excruciating for me to just watch mistakes happen with no recourse."</p>

<p>Speaking of the actions being taken to address the issue, Swift added, "There are a multitude of reasons why people had such a hard time trying to get tickets and I’m trying to figure out how this situation can be improved moving forward."</p>

<p>"I’m not going to make excuses for anyone because we asked them, multiple times, if they could handle this kind of demand and we were assured they could. It’s truly amazing that 2.4 million people got tickets, but it really pisses me off that a lot of them feel like they went through several bear attacks to get them," the 32-year-old stated.</p>

<p>To conclude, she shared a message for her fans who couldn't get their hands on the tickets. "And to those who didn’t get tickets, all I can say is that my hope is to provide more opportunities for us to all get-together and sing these songs. Thank you for wanting to be there. You have no idea how much that means," Swift said.</p>

Taylor Swift slams Ticketmaster for botched ticket sale, says 'excruciating' to see fans struggle

<p>Acclaimed Iranian filmmaker Asghar Farhadi on Friday praised the "courage" of Iranian protesters, telling AFP he "salutes" the ongoing calls for political change in his homeland.</p>

<p>Iran has been gripped by a wave of protests sparked by the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini in mid-September&nbsp;after her arrest by the country's morality police for allegedly breaching the strict dress code for women.</p>

<p>Speaking on the sidelines of the Marrakech International Film Festival, underway in Morocco, the two-time Academy Award winner said he is "following very closely" the events unfolding in his homeland.</p>

<p>"I want to take this opportunity to salute my people, the new generation, the women and men who have taken to the streets and who are trying to take their destiny into their own hands," he said.</p>

<p>The protests have been met by a harsh crackdown, with Oslo-based monitor Iran Human Rights saying 342 people, including 43 children, have so far been killed by security forces.</p>

<p>Iran's authorities have to date condemned five people to death over the demonstrations.</p>

<p>Iran faces an "extremely decisive moment", Farhadi said, and "will no longer be the same country" after the current protest movement.</p>

<p>"The question is, how will these movements and protests end? And will the unity that is necessary among Iranians, for the country to move forward, be maintained?" he said.</p>

<p>The 50-year-old director has won a host of cinema's most prestigious awards, including the 2012 and 2017 Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film.</p>

<p>Farhadi had previously voiced his support for the protests, calling in late September for people around the world to "stand in solidarity" with the protesters.</p>

<p>"They are looking for simple yet fundamental rights that the state has denied them for years," Farhadi said at the time, in a video message on Instagram.</p>

<p>The model also confessed that she was very "fussy" about purchasing sperm from the right&nbsp;stud (male horse).&nbsp;“Like, mine was an Olympian,” she shared while speaking about the chosen donor and referring to her own Olympian blood from her father Caitlyn Jenner. “Do you think I didn’t think this through?

<p>Hollywood actor Johnny Depp's daughter Lily-Rose Depp likes to stay away from her father's controversies and in a recent interview, she revealed the reason behind the same. Speaking candidly to a publication about her famous father's trial, Lily-Rose&nbsp;stated that she refuses to be defined by the men in her life and that she is entitled to her "secret garden of thoughts".</p>

<p>Talking to Elle magazine, the actress-model shared, "When it’s something that’s so private and so personal that all of a sudden becomes not so personal … I feel really entitled to my secret garden of thoughts."</p>

<p>"I also think that I’m not here to answer for anybody, and I feel like for a lot of my career, people have really wanted to define me by the men in my life, whether that’s my family members or my boyfriends, whatever. I’m really ready to be defined for the things that I put out there,” continued Lily-Rose.</p>

<p>This year, Johnny went to trial against his ex-partner Amber Heard over his alleged abusive behaviour. Even though he won the case, his image had been severely tarnished by the accusations made by Amber, due to which he even lost projects and faced financial crunch.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Lily-Rose also spoke about nepotism and how she feels being called a “nepo baby” by netizens. “I’m familiar,” she said about the accusations, adding, “The internet seems to care a lot about that kind of stuff. People are going to have preconceived ideas about you or how you got there, and I can definitely say that nothing is going to get you the part except for being right for the part."</p>

<p>Lily-Rose also shared that such accusations don’t carry the same weight when we talk about other professions. “If somebody’s mom or dad is a doctor, and then the kid becomes a doctor, you’re not going to be like, ‘Well, you’re only a doctor because your parent is a doctor.’ It’s like, ‘No, I went to medical school and trained,'” she said.</p>

<p>Lily-Rose started her journey in showbiz in 2014.&nbsp;Later, she featured in films like 'Yoga Hosers', 'The Dancer', 'The King', and 'Voyagers' among others.</p>

<p>“He didn’t seem okay,” Helgeson says before explaining, “Now, when I say that, I think it’s really important to kind of context of that."</p>

<p>“He didn’t seem okay physically … [but] mentally, he was the most excited I’ve seen him in months. He was very intelligent and he was very conscious of what people wanted to see from him,” he added.</p>

<p>“He was a guy with a lot of plans,” the manager continued. “We had so much stuff going on and, you know, Aaron was a really prideful guy in his own right, too. That’s not his style.”</p>

<p>As days of glitches and long waits left&nbsp;fans frustrated during presale windows, Ticketmaster released a statement on Thursday and announced that they are cancelling tomorrow's slated public sale.</p>

<p>"Due to extraordinarily high demands on ticketing systems and insufficient remaining ticket inventory to meet that demand, tomorrow's public on-sale for Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour has been cancelled," the ticketing broker tweeted.</p>

<p>It was not immediately clear whether that sale would be rescheduled, or how many unsold tickets remained. Ticketmaster did not immediately respond to an AFP request for clarification.</p>

<p>"I have absolutely NO idea what to do now," said 23-year-old fan Cody Rhodes, whose cousin had a presale code earlier this week -- but after waiting five hours, had been booted out of the queue.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"Ticketmaster's statement was so vague. They said cancelled not postponed so now I wonder if there are any tickets left for them to sell," the 23-year-old told AFP.&nbsp;</p>

<p>He doubted his ability to afford resale tickets which can soar into the thousands of dollars, but said he'd likely try. "It just really sucks that Ticketmaster handled this situation so poorly," Rhodes said.</p>

<p>In a blog post, the company said that on November 15 over 2 million tickets were sold for Swift's string of shows set to kick off in March -- the most tickets ever sold for an artist in one day.</p>

<p>More than 3.5 million people pre-registered as "verified fans," a system intended to keep out bots, and some 1.5 million people were then given presale codes to purchase tickets.</p>

<p>But Ticketmaster nevertheless cited a "staggering number of bot attacks" along with fans without codes trying to purchase tickets -- meaning their site experienced 3.5 billion system requests, they said, four times the company's previous peak.</p>

<p>"Even when a high demand on sale goes flawlessly from a tech perspective, many fans are left empty handed," Ticketmaster said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"Based on the volume of traffic to our site, Taylor would need to perform over 900 stadium shows (almost 20x the number of shows she is doing)...that's a stadium show every single night for the next 2.5 years."</p>

<p>Addressing&nbsp;Ticketmaster parent Live Nation Entertainment Inc in a letter, Senator Amy Klobuchar, chair of the Senate antitrust panel, voiced "serious concern about the state of competition in the ticketing industry and its harmful impact on consumers".</p>

<p>"Ticketmaster’s power in the primary ticket market insulates it from the competitive pressures that typically push companies to innovate and improve their services," added Klobuchar. "That can result in the types of dramatic service failures we saw this week, where consumers are the ones that pay the price."&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>- Unwind merger? -</strong></p>

<p>The debacle reignited concern over Ticketmaster's privileged position in the ticketing industry.</p>

<p>The company -- which is owned by Live Nation, the event promotion behemoth -- is a dominating force, and for years concertgoers have complained of hidden fees, soaring costs, rampant scalpers and limited tickets due to presales.</p>

<p>A number of lawmakers questioned the 2010 merger of Ticketmaster and Live Nation, with some calling for probes into the state of the industry's competition.</p>

<p>Tennessee's Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti meanwhile voiced concern over the presale, and said "he and his Consumer Protection team will use every available tool to ensure that no consumer protection laws were violated."</p>

<p>A number of anti-trust and consumer protection groups in recent months have launched a campaign "to investigate and unwind the 2010 Live Nation-Ticketmaster merger," saying that its vast power in the industry allows it to "hike up ticket prices, tack on expensive junk fees, and exploit artists, independent venues, and fans."</p>

Also read: Taylor Swift's fan miffed with singer for staying silent over Ticketmaster fiasco But Ticketmaster nevertheless cited a "staggering number of bot attacks" along with fans without codes trying to purchase tickets -- meaning their site experienced 3.5 billion system requests, they said, four times the company's previous peak. "Even when a high demand on sale goes flawlessly from a tech perspective, many fans are left empty handed," Ticketmaster said. "Based on the volume of traffic to our site, Taylor would need to perform over 900 stadium shows (almost 20x the number of shows she is doing)...that's a stadium show every single night for the next 2.5 years." Addressing Ticketmaster parent Live Nation Entertainment Inc in a letter, Senator Amy Klobuchar, chair of the Senate antitrust panel, voiced "serious concern about the state of competition in the ticketing industry and its harmful impact on consumers". "Ticketmaster’s power in the primary ticket market insulates it from the competitive pressures that typically push companies to innovate and improve their services," added Klobuchar. "That can result in the types of dramatic service failures we saw this week, where consumers are the ones that pay the price." - Unwind merger? - The debacle reignited concern over Ticketmaster's privileged position in the ticketing industry. The company -- which is owned by Live Nation, the event promotion behemoth -- is a dominating force, and for years concertgoers have complained of hidden fees, soaring costs, rampant scalpers and limited tickets due to presales. A number of lawmakers questioned the 2010 merger of Ticketmaster and Live Nation, with some calling for probes into the state of the industry's competition.

A number of anti-trust and consumer protection groups in recent months have launched a campaign "to investigate and unwind the 2010 Live Nation-Ticketmaster merger," saying that its vast power in the industry allows it to "hike up ticket prices, tack on expensive junk fees, and exploit artists, independent venues, and fans."

<p>It was long being speculated if Aamir Khan will feature in the remake of the Spanish film 'Campeones' titled 'Champions'. And with Aamir's latest media interaction, the actor has cleared the air and has revealed that he will be associated with the film in the capacity of a producer and not as an actor. He also revealed that he is taking a break from acting for the first time in 35 years to spend time with his family and kids.</p>

<p>During a recent media interaction in Delhi, Khan said, "When I am doing a film as an actor, I get so lost in that that nothing else happens in my life. I was supposed to do a film after Laal Singh Chaddha called Champions. It's a wonderful script, a beautiful story, and it's a very heartwarming and lovely film. But I feel that I want to take a break, be with my family, with my mom, my kids"</p>

<p>"I feel like I have been working for 35 years and I feel I have been single-mindedly focused on my work… And I feel it’s not fair to the people who are close to me. It’s not fair to me also in many ways. This is the time for me… to experience life in a different way,"&nbsp;the 57-year-old star added.</p>

<p>Speaking about his future plans, he shared, "I’m looking forward to the next year, a year and a half in which I’m not actually working as an actor for the first time."</p>

<p>Commenting on his association with the upcoming film 'Champions', he stated, "I’ll work as a producer on ‘Champions’ because I really believe in the film. I’ll approach other actors now to see if they are interested to do the role that I was hoping to do. I’m at that stage in my life where I want to enjoy my relationships."</p>

<p>For everyone who had been waiting for the female-fronted 'Pirates of the Caribbean' film, Oscar-nominee Hollywood actress Margot Robbie has sad news!

<p>Just a few days after declaring that Oscar-winning screenwriter Paul Haggis is guilty of sexual assault in a civil rape trial, a&nbsp;New York jury&nbsp;ordered him to&nbsp;pay an additional $2.5 million in damages to the accuser Haleigh Breest, bringing the total to $10 million.&nbsp;Last week on Thursday, he was found guilty of all three counts of rape and sexual abuse, following a two-week trial in Manhattan.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While Breest’s lawyers called the verdict "just", Haggis maintained&nbsp;that he had been falsely accused by the publicist and that their encounters were consensual. He added that he has been financially ruined by fighting the civil case but vowed to appeal to clear his name.</p>

<p>"I can’t live with lies like this. I will die clearing my name," Haggis said as he left court.</p>

<p>According to Breest's statement, Haggis raped her and forced her to perform oral sex in his New York apartment in 2013,&nbsp;when she was just 26 years old.&nbsp;</p>

<p>As jurors returned to court on Monday to hear testimony about Haggis’ finances and decide how much more he’d have to pay to the accuser, they got a quick course in movie financing as Haggis was questioned about his earnings from films like 'Crash'&nbsp;and 'Million Dollar Baby'.</p>

<p>While speaking about the complexities of screenwriting compensation, Haggis and his attorneys estimated that throughout his career he’s made somewhere around&nbsp;$25 million&nbsp;before taxes, agents’ and other representatives’ fees and asset splits with his two ex-wives.</p>

<p>During Monday’s hearing, the 69-year-old filmmaker said that he’d suffered various financial losses in the last few years and that Breest’s lawsuit has wiped him out. He also stated that his legal bills have reached $2.6 million&nbsp;while his career has abruptly dried up.</p>

<p>“I’ve spent all the money I have at my disposal. I’ve gutted my pension plan, I’ve lived on loans, in order to pay for this case in a very naïve belief in justice,” he said outside court.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, Breest’s lawyers questioned Haggis’ claims of being broke. “Nothing Paul Haggis says can be trusted,” attorney Ilann Maazel said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The 36-year-old publicist previously&nbsp;said that she has suffered both professional and psychological harm from what happened in 2013, following a movie premiere. And, she declined to make any further comments on Monday.</p>

<p>After the initial verdict came on Thursday, she said that she appreciates “the opportunity to seek justice and accountability in court and that the jury chose to follow the facts, and believed" her.</p>

Paul Haggis ordered to pay $10 million to publicist in civil rape lawsuit

<p>British rock and pop singer-songwriter Sir Rod Stewart recently revealed that he turned down a lucrative offer to perform at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar amid criticism regarding human rights in the territory. Candidly speaking to a publication, he touched on the topic of the systemic discrimination against women and the LGBTQ+ community in Qatar as well as the reported deaths of 37 migrant workers helping to construct the stadiums where the World Cup will be held.</p>

<p>In an interview with Sunday Times, Stewart said, "I was actually offered a lot of money, over $ 1 million, to play there 15 months ago. I turned it down. It’s not right to go. And the Iranians should be out too for supplying arms. Tell you what, supporters have got to watch out, haven’t they?"</p>

<p>With this statement, Stewart has entered the debate over the World Cup being organised and hosted in the Gulf country, where homosexuality is illegal and can be punishable by death.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Stewart's comments came shortly after David Beckham was highly criticised by fans as well as U.K. comedian Joe Lycett for becoming an ambassador for the Qatar World Cup. Lycett grabbed headlines when he posted a video on Twitter and offered to donate £10,000 to charities supporting the LGBTQ+ community. However, he also said that if Beckham goes on to be an ambassador of the Qatar World Cup, he will shred the money on a live stream.</p>

Sir Rod Stewart turned down '$1 million' offer to perform at Qatar World Cup amid criticism

<p>A superfan of legendary musician Kurt Cobain recently bought an electric guitar played, smashed and then signed by the Nirvana frontman for nearly half a million dollars at an auction over the weekend.&nbsp;Played only twice, the circa 1973 Fender Mustang with tobacco sunburst finish was smashed onstage in 1989 by Cobain.&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to the auction house, the musician used the instrument first at Club Dreamerz in Chicago on July 8, 1989, and then at the Sonic Temple in Wilkinsburg on July 9, 1989. The guitar was destroyed beyond repair at the second event.</p>

<p>"Following that performance, the band stayed at Sluggo Cawley of the band Hullabaloo's apartment, where Cobain noticed a smashed Gibson SG hanging on Cawley's wall," Julien's auction house shared. "Cobain offered to trade it for the Fender Mustang he had smashed on July 9th because he thought he could repair the Gibson SG well enough to smash it again later on."</p>

<p>The auction house continued, "Sluggo agreed to the trade and had Cobain inscribe the Mustang, signing as Nirvana and additionally drawing two flowers along the upper right portion of the pickguard before the band moved on to their next show. Along the lower portion of the body, the inscription reads, 'Yo Sluggo / Thank for the trade / If it's illegal to Rock and Roll, then throw my ass in jail / Nirvana.'"</p>

<p>American comedian Dave Chappelle delivered a 15-minute-long monologue on the sixth episode of 'Saturday Night Live' season 48 amid controversy over his anti-trans jokes. He used his time on the stage to talk about current events and issues but didn't directly mention the fallout from his 2021 Netflix special 'The Closer', which was criticised as sexist, homophobic and transphobic. Other than mocking Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, for his anti-Semitic remarks, he spoke about Kyrie Irving, the midterm elections and the persistence of former President Donald Trump.</p>

<p>During the first stretch of his monologue, he spoke about Kanye West's anti-Semitic remarks and read a prepared statement. "Before I start tonight, I wanted to read a brief statement that I prepared: 'I renounce anti-Semitism in all its forms, and stand with my friends in the Jewish community.' And that, Kanye, is how you buy yourself some time."</p>

<p>The comedian then proceeded to tell jokes about Ye's antisemitism scandal and American basketball player Kyrie Irving's recent anti-Semitic tweet and apology. Check out the viral video&nbsp;below.</p>

<p>Chappelle then pivoted to other topics. Speaking about the midterm election in the US, he ridiculed Herschel Walker, the Republican nominee for Senate in Georgia who is headed to a runoff contest against Democratic nominee Sen. Raphael Warnock. "I don't want to speak badly of him, because he's Black," Chapelle said while&nbsp;referring to Walker. "But I have to admit, he's observably stupid."</p>

<p>Chappelle then shared why he believes Donald Trump is popular among voters in places like Ohio. He described the former president as an "honest liar".</p>

<p>"He was loved because people in Ohio have never seen anyone like him," Chappelle said. "He’s an honest liar. He said, 'I know the system is rigged because I use it.'"</p>

<p>The 49-year-old&nbsp;then ended his set by saying: "I thank you for your support and I hope they don't take anything away from me - whoever they are."</p>

Speaking about the midterm election in the US, he ridiculed Herschel Walker, the Republican nominee for Senate in Georgia who is headed to a runoff contest against Democratic nominee Sen. Raphael Warnock. "I don't want to speak badly of him, because he's Black," Chapelle said while referring to Walker. "But I have to admit, he's observably stupid." Chappelle then shared why he believes Donald Trump is popular among voters in places like Ohio. He described the former president as an "honest liar". "He was loved because people in Ohio have never seen anyone like him," Chappelle said. "He’s an honest liar. He said, 'I know the system is rigged because I use it.'" The 49-year-old then ended his set by saying: "I thank you for your support and I hope they don't take anything away from me - whoever they are." Dave Chappelle Monologue!

<p>Co-creator of the 1986 ABC sitcom 'Head of the Class' and Emmy-winning screenwriter Richard Eustis passed away on October 30 in Thousand Oaks, California, at the age of 86.</p>

<p>According to Variety, together with writer and director Michael Elias, Eustis made up one-half of the creative duo Eustis and Elias, which produced the high school sitcom, which had five seasons from 1986 to 1991. The program followed a group of talented high school students participating in the Individualized Honors Program at Millard Fillmore High School, a fictional high school in Manhattan played by Howard Hesseman.</p>

<p>Billy Connolly, who played Billy MacGregor, the character played by the actor who departed the show before its fifth season, took his position. In 1992, Connolly’s efforts led to the network giving him a spin-off show called ‘Billy,’ which Eustis and Elias co-created and lasted for 13 episodes.</p>

<p>As per a report by Variety, HBO Max, created by Amy Pocha and Seth Cohen, gave the original show a rebirth in 2021. Before HBO stated in December of the previous year that it would not be pushing forward with a second season, the reboot series ran for one ten-episode season on the streamer, releasing the full season at once on Nov. 4.</p>

<p>Eustis wrote episodes of various television programs, including 'Scrubs',&nbsp;'Tall Hopes',&nbsp;'Eye to Eye',&nbsp;and others. Before teaming up with creative partner Elias, he began his career in television writing for performers Dean Martin and John Denver on variety shows. For 'An Evening with John Denver'&nbsp;in 1975, Eustis received a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Variety, Music, or Comedy Special.</p>

<p>In Vancouver, British Columbia, on November 21, 1935, Eustis was born. Before relocating to Los Angeles to begin his career in television, he previously worked as a journalist and was hailed as a football star in his youth.</p>

<p>According to Variety, Eustis is survived by his wife, Tiana, sons John and Ronald, daughter Madeleine, son-in-law Marcel Samek, grandson Julian Eustis Samek and granddaughters Colette Eustis Samek and Linh Eustis. His daughter-in-law, Oanh Ly, is also a television writer and producer. He is preceded in death by his eldest daughter Sandy Eustis, who was a script supervisor.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Iranian man who inspired ace filmmaker Steven Spielberg’s movie ‘The Terminal’, Mehran Karimi Nasseri, breathed his last on Saturday at Terminal 2F of Paris' Charles de Gaulle Airport. The cause of death has been reported as a heart attack by Associated Press, which also shared that the police and medical professionals were ultimately unable to save Nasseri and that he had returned to the airport&nbsp;in recent weeks to live there again.</p>

<p>who was referred to as 'Sir Alfred' by the airport staff, was at the airport since 1988 after the United Kingdom denied him political asylum as a refugee despite the fact that he had a Scottish mother. Post which, he deliberately chose to reside at the Paris airport after declaring himself stateless.</p>

<p>Reportedly, he always kept his luggage by his side at the airport and spent time reading, writing diary entries and studying economics. He left the airport when he was hospitalised in 2006, which was 18 years after he first settled at the terminal.</p>

<p>Taking inspiration from his unconventional situation, Steven Spielberg decided to make a film on him, which ultimately released in 2004 and was titled 'The Terminal'. The movie starred Tom Hanks as an Eastern European man who resides in New York’s John F. Kennedy airport after being denied entry to the United States.</p>

<p>Apart from 'The Terminal', Nasseri's story also inspired the 1993 French film 'Tombes du ciel', which starred Jean Rochefort. The film&nbsp;released internationally with the title 'Lost in Transit'.</p>

<p>British actress and model Elizabeth Hurley recently came forward to talk about her 'Serving Sara' co-star Matthew Perry and how his addiction affected the shoot of the 2002 film. After the publication of Perry's memoir 'Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing', which is filled with anecdotes about his personal and professional life, the 57-year-old diva is the most recent A-lister to talk about the 'Friends' star's battle with substance abuse.</p>

<p>First, she revealed that she&nbsp;has partially read Perry's memoir and is yet to finish the book.&nbsp;She also complimented Perry for being a great writer and comedian. "I haven't actually read the book yet, but I've read [excerpts] of it," Hurley told Yahoo. "It's quite interesting," she added. "He's a very funny writer like he's a very funny man. He's an incredibly gifted comedian ... his way with words is fantastic."</p>

<p>Hurley also spoke about the temporary shutdown of the 2002 film,&nbsp;in which Perry played&nbsp;a process server tasked with delivering divorce papers to Hurley's character.&nbsp;"I have very fond memories of him. To be honest, it was a nightmare working with him at that time and, as it's now known, our movie was shut down because of his addiction," the actress said.</p>

<p>"We were in a force majeure and had to all sit at home twiddling our thumbs for some time," Hurley continued. "It was tough, obviously he was having a tough time, but he was still very charming and a lovely person to work with. But you could see he was suffering for sure."</p>

<p>Perry had revealed in his memoir ‘Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing’ that production on ‘Serving Sara’ had to be suspended as he was in rehab for drug and alcohol abuse.</p>

<p>On Friday, Hollywood actor Alec Baldwin filed a negligence lawsuit against the armourer and three crew members of 'Rust' over the shocking&nbsp;killing of&nbsp;cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the Western film.</p>

<p>Filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court,&nbsp;Baldwin's suit is a photo and email-heavy cross-complaint for negligence and indemnification that names<em>&nbsp;</em>armourer Hannah Gutierrez Reed,&nbsp;first assistant director David Halls, property master&nbsp;Sarah Zachry, and weapons &amp; rounds supplier Seth Kenney and his company as defendants.</p>

<p>All four were also named as defendants along with Baldwin in the original lawsuit filed by a script supervisor who claimed the shooting caused her severe emotional distress.</p>

<p>Several other litigations have stemmed&nbsp;from the tragedy that occurred on the sets of 'Rust' on October&nbsp;21, 2021, which is also under criminal investigation and could result in New Mexico state charges.</p>

<p>Attorneys for Gutierrez-Reed, Halls and Kenney have not yet&nbsp;responded to requests for statements in their clients' defence.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Baldwin's cross-complaint&nbsp;seeks damages, which are to be determined at trial, for the "immense grief" he endured due to the incident and the losses he faced.&nbsp;The suit was filed by Luke Nikas, an attorney for Baldwin who works with the firm Quinn Emanuel.</p>

<p>"This tragedy happened because live bullets were delivered to the set and loaded into the gun, Gutierrez-Reed failed to check the bullets or the gun carefully, Halls failed to check the gun carefully and yet announced the gun was safe before handing it to Baldwin, and Zachry failed to disclose that Gutierrez-Reed had been acting recklessly off sets and was a safety risk to those around her," Baldwin's cross-complaint stated.</p>

<p>For the uninitiated, Hutchins was killed when a revolver assigned to Baldwin for rehearsal&nbsp;fired a live round that hit her and movie director Joel Souza during the 'Rust' film shooting in New Mexico.</p>

<p>In an interview, Baldwin maintained that he did not pull the trigger of the Colt .45 revolver and it fired after he cocked it. Meanwhile, an FBI forensic test of the single-action revolver found that it "functioned normally" and would not fire without the trigger being pulled.</p>

Together with our CFDA Fashion Awards partner Amazon Fashion, which is a continuous innovator on behalf of customers, the CFDA is incredibly proud to honour SKIMS with the inaugural Innovation Award.”</p>

<p>CFDA, which is the fashion industry’s equivalent of the Oscars, was&nbsp;hosted by actress Natasha Lyonne and CFDA members Joseph Altuzarra, Gabriela Hearst, Aurora James, Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough. The evening commemorated the history of American fashion and sixty years of the organization.</p>

<p>Law Roach was also honoured this year with a new award recognizing stylists for their work. "Once upon a time, there was a queen born on the south side of Chicago. A queen who was a fear force for good and for beauty and she changed the landscape of fashion just by being her,"&nbsp;Kerry Washington said while sharing the story of Roach’s early life.</p>

<p>He shared with the audience that he was watching the CFDA Awards in 2016 from behind the scenes as Zendaya’s stylist. “I watched from the kitchen as the waiters served your food and I just said to myself, ‘One day I’m going to be on that stage.’ I am an example that anything and everything is possible,” Roach said.</p>

<p>Bradley Cooper, Trevor Noah, and Christina Ricci were among other presenters on a night when a variety of designers took home trophies and Lenny Kravitz received the CFDA’s Fashion Icon Award.</p>

<p>“(Kravitz is) effortless, cool, eclectic, fearless,” Cooper said while introducing Kravitz. “Whatever it is, he’s got it. And when it comes to fashion, there’s no one cooler. There is no other musician alive today who wears leather and leopard-like Lenny.”</p>

<p>“My mother’s closet was my own personal boutique. I put on scarfs, belts, platform boots, boas emulating my heroes from the Jackson Five, Jimi Hendrix, Sly and the Family Stone, David Bowie and Miles Davis,” Kravitz said, recounting his youth growing up in the late 60s and 70s.</p>

<p>Last year, Zendaya was the youngest person to win the Icon award. Previous recipients have included Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Pharrell Williams, Rihanna, and Jennifer Lopez.</p>

<p>Cher also made a surprise appearance to present an honour to stylist Patti Wilson. “Fashion is to be fun and feared and Patti Wilson is fearless,” Cher said.</p>

<p>The accessories design award went to Raul Lopez and the award for American emerging designer went to Elena Velez. In the American designer categories, Catherine Holstein won the womenswear prize for KHAITE and Emily Adams Bode Aujla took the prize for menswear designer.</p>

<p>The Board of Trustee’s Award was awarded to Virgil Abloh to honour the late designer’s contribution to global fashion. The award was received by his wife, Shannon Abloh, who said, “What he was able to accomplish in his short 41 years will live on to inspire all of us for decades to come.”</p>

Kim Kardashian calls for inclusivity at CFDA awards, gets honoured for her shapewear line

<p>At the 'Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame' ceremony, Canadian-American singer Alanis Morissette was supposed to perform a duet with Olivia Rodrigo to pay a tribute to inductee Carly Somin, however, she dropped out of the gig last minute allegedly due to "sexism".&nbsp;</p>

<p>Morissette had rehearsed for her performance on Friday&nbsp;before making an exit from the show. Later, on Instagram, she shared why exactly she decided to not perform at the ceremony.</p>

<p>During an Instagram Live session, Morissette strongly indicated that whatever she encountered while rehearsing for her performance on-site brought up long-simmering feelings of "an overarching anti-woman sentiment" in the industry.</p>

<p>Placing the blame on the telecast's production team, she suggested&nbsp;that whatever she experienced there stood in contrast to "countless incredible experiences with production teams with all genders throughout" her life.</p>

<p>Morissette also issued&nbsp;an official statement on her Instagram account to address the rumours.</p>

<p>"There are some misinformed rumblings about my not performing at the Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony this past weekend. Firstly, I have to say how much I adore Carly Simon and Olivia Rodrigo and Dolly Parton and Janet Jackson and Pat Benatar and Sheryl Crow and Pink and Brandi Carlile and Sara Bareilles - and all the amazing people and artists who were there," she wrote.</p>

<p>Morissette continued,&nbsp;"I have spent decades in an industry that is rife with an overarching anti-woman sentiment and have tolerated a lot of condescension and disrespectfulness, reduction, dismissiveness, contract-breaching, unsupportiveness, exploitation and psychological violence (and more) throughout my career."</p>

<p>She further mentioned,&nbsp;"I tolerated it because nothing would stop me from connecting with those who I cared about and resonated with. I live to serve and connect with people and so over the years, I sucked it up on more occasions than I can count in order to do so. It's hard not to be affected in any industry around the world, but Hollywood has been notorious for its disrespect of the feminine in all of us."</p>

Here's what Arbaaz said</a></p>

<p>"Thankfully, I am at a point in my life where there is no need for me to spend time in an environment that reduces women. I have had countless incredible experiences with production teams with all genders throughout my life. So many, and so fun. There is nothing better than a team of diverse people coming together with one mission. I'll continue to show up in those environments with bells on," she concluded.</p>

<p>Different accounts of what actually happened behind the scenes&nbsp;during the rehearsal&nbsp;are doing rounds online. According to&nbsp;multiple sources,&nbsp;Morissette was "struggling with the song" during a run-through, which led to her&nbsp;walk out.</p>

<p>But, sources close to Morissette have shared a different version of the story, claiming&nbsp;that Morissette and Rodrigo were working well together on the&nbsp;song's tune&nbsp;with the house band.</p>

Hollywood actor Jason Momoa is now a pet parent to an adorable pig! The 43-year-old has been sharing videos with the new member of his family since early Monday morning on social media. In the clips, he is seen holding the pig in his hands and introducing his Instafam to his new friend. In one of his posts, Momoa revealed that he got the pig from 'Slumberland' sets and shared that he doesn't prefer working with animals because he ends up wanting to get them home. For those unaware, 'Slumberland' is based on the comic strip 'Little Nemo in Slumberland' and it revolves around the character Nemo who has a stuffed pig that comes alive at night. Momoa has been roped in to play a magical character in the film who helps a young girl travel through dreams and flee nightmares in order to reunite with her deceased father, according to the film's synopsis. Sharing video on his official Instagram handle on Monday, Momoa wrote, "My new friend LAU LAU. or MANAPUA. we haven’t decided yet. this is why i can’t work with animals i want to bring them home. wild and feral like his pops. aloha j. (sic)" Check it out below.

<p>Australian actress Rebel Wilson, who came out of the closet and openly became an&nbsp;LGBTQIA+ member in June this year, has come forward to debunk her engagement rumours with&nbsp;her girlfriend Ramona Agruma. It was previously reported by some publications that she has made things official with her ladylove and has put a ring on her finger after just seven months of dating. But, the truth is far from it.</p>

<p>Page Six previously reported that the two were seen wearing diamond rings at a party around Halloween time. According to a source quoted by the publication, the Aussie star was also telling everyone at the Halloween bash how happy she is after getting engaged to the love of her life.&nbsp;“They were making out in a corner and telling everyone how excited they are to be engaged,” a source had told Page Six.</p>

<p>To shut down speculations, Wilson took to her Instagram stories on Sunday and wrote, "Thanks for the well-wishes, but we are NOT engaged."</p>

<p>While introducing her girlfriend to her fans on Instagram, the actress once wrote, "I thought I was searching for a Disney Prince… but maybe what I really needed all this time was a Disney Princess. (sic).</p>

Australian actress Rebel Wilson, who came out of the closet and openly became an LGBTQIA+ member in June this year, has come forward to debunk her engagement rumours with her girlfriend Ramona Agruma.

Australian actress Rebel Wilson, who came out of the closet and openly became an LGBTQIA+ member in June this year, has come forward to debunk her engagement rumours with her girlfriend Ramona Agruma. It was previously reported by some publications that she has made things official with her ladylove and has put a ring on her finger after just seven months of dating. But, the truth is far from it. Page Six previously reported that the two were seen wearing diamond rings at a party around Halloween time. According to a source quoted by the publication, the Aussie star was also telling everyone at the Halloween bash how happy she is after getting engaged to the love of her life. “They were making out in a corner and telling everyone how excited they are to be engaged,” a source had told Page Six. To shut down speculations, Wilson took to her Instagram stories on Sunday and wrote, "Thanks for the well-wishes, but we are NOT engaged." While introducing her girlfriend to her fans on Instagram, the actress once wrote, "I thought I was searching for a Disney Prince… but maybe what I really needed all this time was a Disney Princess.

<p>Taking to Twitter on Monday, director Om Raut shared that the Prabhas and Kriti Sanon-starrer will now release&nbsp;on June 16, 2023, instead of January 12. And, the decision has been made&nbsp;to "give a complete visual experience to the viewers" and "give more time to the teams working on the film".</p>

<p>The director shared a note on Twitter, which read, "Jai Shri Ram. Adipurush is not a film, but a representation of our devotion to Prabhu Shri Ram and commitment towards our sanskriti and history. In order to give a complete visual experience to the viewers, we need to give more time to the teams working on the film. (sic)"</p>

<p>"We are committed to make a film that India will be proud of. Your support, love and blessings is what keeps us going. - Om Raut. Adipurush will now release on June 16th, 2023," the note further read.</p>

<p>After hosting 'Saturday Night Live' in 2015 and 2018, Amy Schumer returned to the 'SNL' stage to make fans go ROFL for the third time with musical guest Steve Lacy. During her much-awaited opening monologue, which ran for more than six minutes, Schumer spoke about the US midterm election, abortion access and poked fun at her husband Chris Fischer's autism diagnosis.</p>

<p>The comedian-actress first spoke about her husband's struggles with autism in her 2019 Netflix special Growing.</p>

<p>Speaking of the midterm elections, which she called "midterm abortion" before correcting herself in the monologue, she said, "Sorry, I was thinking about what’s at stake if we don’t vote." Schumer further spoke about her pregnancy and shared,&nbsp;"People love giving pregnant women advice, don’t they? Like the whole time I was pregnant, I had this one friend, she kept telling me ‘You gotta do prenatal yoga. It really helps with the birth.’ So, I immediately signed up… for a C-section."</p>

<p>The comedian then touched on her and her husband's sex life and&nbsp;went on to say that after someone gives birth, the doctors insist that they do not have sex for six weeks. "We do have a good sex life. We do," she said. "Married people, have you found this? We’ve found that the best weekday to have sex is always to… morrow. Like, we ate today. Maybe we won’t eat tomorrow. That’ll be a good day."</p>

<p>Schumer also spoke about her husband&nbsp;Chris Fischer’s&nbsp;autism spectrum disorder and recalled a recent moment she shared with her husband.&nbsp;"It's been really positive for our family to have him diagnosed. I understand so much more about his behaviour, and it's given him so many tools," she said while adding, "Now, if somebody is in the middle of a long, boring story, he will straight up just walk away."</p>

<p>She added, "A couple of weeks ago, we were sitting outside. It was a nice night. It looked like it was going to rain, and I was feeling kind of sentimental, and I was like, 'You know, even though these past couple of years with the pandemic and everything has been so stressful, still this time being with you, being with our son, they've been the best years of my life.'"</p>

<p>"And he just looked at me and said, 'I'm going to go put the windows up in the car,'" Schumer said in response. "Yeah, that's my guy. It's one of the times we play the game, autism or just a man?'"</p>

Kamal Haasan, Mani Ratnam to reunite after 35 years; more deets inside

<p>On Monday, Britney Spears took to her Instagram handle to talk about a health issue she has been struggling with. In a long note, the singer revealed that she is suffering from incurable nerve damage that often causes the right side of her body to go numb.&nbsp;With the note, she shared a dance video and explained why and how dancing helps in reducing pain.</p>

<p>"I’m dancing in time now Victoria… yes … nerve damage on the right side of my body … there’s no cure except God I guess … nerve damage is caused sometimes when you don’t get enough oxygen to your brain… your brain literally shuts down&nbsp;… blah blah blah old story… in that place I didn’t breathe when I was there … nerve damage causes parts of your body to go numb. I wake up like 3 times a week in bed and my hands are completely numb … nerves are tiny and it feels like pins and needles from the right side of my body it shoots up to my neck and the part that hurts the worst is my temple on my head… it stings and it’s scary (sic)," she wrote.</p>

<p>Speaking further about her health condition, she said, "The last 3 years since I got out of that place I’ve been in a mild unconscious state … I couldn’t face it. It was like it was too scary to be here … although my Instagram has been not up to par to most … hey hey hey it gave me existence and got me here … it’s funny though when I dance I don’t feel the pain… it’s like my mind literally goes to a place of my inner child. And although I don’t move like I use to … I truly believe my faith in it gave me strength. (sic)"</p>

<p>Revealing how she dealt with the condition and how she overcame it, Britney said, "By the grace of God I finally found a medication where I actually feel oxygen going to my brain and through my neck… my eyes are more open now and I can hold my head up correctly… I’ve done a good job trying to pull it off. Either way I’m getting a lot better, I can breathe … I feel smarter because well, Jesus I can breathe now … either way, I’m breathing now and I can dance in time, Victoria … I send all my love to every single one of you … this is me this morning … I’m gonna vacuum now !!! (sic)"</p>

On Monday, Britney Spears took to her Instagram handle to talk about a health issue she has been struggling with. In a long note, the singer revealed that she is suffering from incurable nerve damage that often causes the right side of her body to go numb. With the note, she shared a dance video and explained why and how dancing helps in reducing pain. "I’m dancing in time now Victoria… yes … nerve damage on the right side of my body … there’s no cure except God I guess … nerve damage is caused sometimes when you don’t get enough oxygen to your brain… your brain literally shuts down … blah blah blah old story… in that place I didn’t breathe when I was there … nerve damage causes parts of your body to go numb. I wake up like 3 times a week in bed and my hands are completely numb … nerves are tiny and it feels like pins and needles from the right side of my body it shoots up to my neck and the part that hurts the worst is my temple on my head… it stings and it’s scary (sic)," she wrote. Speaking further about her health condition, she said, "The last 3 years since I got out of that place I’ve been in a mild unconscious state … I couldn’t face it. It was like it was too scary to be here … although my Instagram has been not up to par to most … hey hey hey it gave me existence and got me here … it’s funny though when I dance I don’t feel the pain… it’s like my mind literally goes to a place of my inner child. And although I don’t move like I use to … I truly believe my faith in it gave me strength. (sic)" Revealing how she dealt with the condition and how she overcame it, Britney said, "By the grace of God I finally found a medication where I actually feel oxygen going to my brain and through my neck… my eyes are more open now and I can hold my head up correctly… I’ve done a good job trying to pull it off. Either way I’m getting a lot better, I can breathe … I feel smarter because well, Jesus I can breathe now … either way, I’m breathing now and I can dance in time, Victoria … I send all my love to every single one of you … this is me this morning … I’m gonna vacuum now !!!

<p>Hollywood actor Winston Duke&nbsp;has joined hands with director&nbsp;David Leitch&nbsp;for his upcoming&nbsp;action thriller film 'The Fall Guy', which is Universal’s big-screen take on the 1980s adventure TV series. The movie also stars Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt and its&nbsp;production&nbsp;began this week in Australia.</p>

<p>If reports are anything to go by, Winston Duke will portray the role of the stuntman’s best friend. And unlike the original 1980s show, the story doesn’t focus on a stuntman with a side hustle as a bounty hunter.</p>

<p>Instead, it focuses on a battered and past-his-prime film stuntman&nbsp;who finds himself back in a movie with the star for whom he doubled long ago and who replaced him. The twist in the movie comes when the star goes missing.</p>

<p>Even though the feature film is doing away with the side gig, it is&nbsp;preserving its name and stunts.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The movie is going to hit the theatres in 2024.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Previously, it was reported that Aaron Taylor-Johnson has joined the film's cast alongside Stephanie Hsu. With the latest update, it seems that the makers have finally finished casting for the project.&nbsp;</p>
