Hemsworth will make his first appearance at the occasion while Zendaya will return for the first time in many years. Honorary chairs include Loewe creative director Jonathan Anderson and TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew.

Out on the red carpet we see literal interpretation fo flowers with distinct stem like rods of glass and petals encompassing a crystal heart.

There is melancholic and dismal Ballard vision. Vogue instructs moody florals would not be enough so reams of black more gothic blooms.

Alligator snapping turtle found in Cumbrian tarn

Posted on February 9, 2024 by mehwishfayyaz2017@gmail.com

An invasive alligator snapping turtle has pulled from a Cumbrain tarn.

A dog walker found the exotic creature which is native to rivers and swamps in southern parts of US in Urswick Tarn, near Ulverston on Monday.

Veterinary Surgeon Dr Dominic Moule said turtle which gives a nasty bite would likely have eaten through everything it was not rescued.

Parish councillor Denise Chamberion fished it out of water with a shopping basket and took it to vet.

Ms Chamberlan who lived in Florida saw a social media post about turtle and immediately recognised the species.

While it is not illegal to own alligator snapping turtles vets do not recommend keeping them as pets due their complicated needs.

“I suspect somebody has bought it and not realised what it is it has got too mega for them to look after or they can not afford to feed it”.

Ms Chamberlain went to retreive it with the assistant of residents.

She said ” I was anxious on two levels”.

“One was actually catching it without losing a finger but also what was I going to do with it?”

She wore three pairs of builders gloves and used a shopping basket to scoop the turtle out. She transported it to a large container with water from the tarn.

” Everybody rallied round to help” she added.

Posted on February 4, 2024 by mehwishfayyaz2017@gmail.com

In the ongoing legal battle between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt concerning their 500 million dollar French vineyard.

The recent win has tipped the scales in favor of the Moneyball star. The 60 year veteran actor has been embroiled in legal proceeding in Luxembourg and California over Chateau Miraval, the famous vineyard. asserting his right to ownership share.

The couple first bought the estate together before their marriage with Jolie owning 40% and Pitt holding 60%. This legal battle intensified after Jolie sold her shares to Yuri Shefler the owner of Russian vodka giant stoli.

Following their marriage at the winery in 2014 Pitt gifted Joli 10% additional transforming the ownership structure into a 50 50 divide when they separated in 2016.

Pitt has contested the validity of Jolie sale of her shares arguing that deal was not legal. He insist he should retain a 60% ownership and control the property.

The focus of the disagreement centers on the extra 10% gifted to Jolie with Pitt contesting in court their agreement for extra share is unenforceable.

The Luxembourg court at least temporarily has ruled in Pitts favor returning the 10% to him until final decision is accessed.

Pitt currently maintains a 60/40 split in ownership allowing him to retain control of the property.

The legal fought is anticipated to extend for year or more keeping the ultimate resolution in suspense. Representatives of both parties have not comments on the matter.

The story goes back to the 2021 release of Rodrigo debut album “Sour.” At the time of Rodrigo who rose to popularity on Disney+ show ” High School Musical The Musical The Series” was she revealed the biggest Swiftie in the whole world”.

“Sour” was released that May things got a little bitter. The album originally gave a songwriting credit to Swift and her frequent collaborator.

Swift and Antonoff names were quietly added “Deja Vu” another song on Rodrigo album for an interpolation of “Cruel Summer” by Swift.

This was not just about it also meant money.

Swift Antonoff, Clark would share a 50% stake in song while Rodrigo and producer Nigro split the rest.

This amounted to $325,678 in publishing royalties for Swift, S260,542 for Antonoff and $65,135 for St Vincent.

Rodrigo had belatedly five songwriting credits to Paramore, whose singer Hayley William is good friend and tour mate of Swift on another No 1 hit, which allegedly interpolated that band song Misery Business.

When Rodrigo sophomore albums Guts was released in Spe 23 the internet lit up with theories.
