With several EPs released throughout the years, it was her debut album, Cherry Valley, released in October last year, that really made people start paying attention to the up-and-coming country star. It also came out the same day pop icon Taylor Swift dropped her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl.

Doocy was referring to speculation about Trump’s health that spread online during the long weekend, fuelled in part by the president’s relative absence from the public for several days. The incident has renewed – for a different president – questions... https://www.scmp.com/news/world/united-states-canada/article/3324238/bruises-misstatements-how-should-presidents-health-be-covered?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/news/world/united-states-canada/article/3324238/bruises-misstatements-how-should-presidents-health-be-covered?utm_source=rss_feed Wed, 03 Sep 2025 16:00:08 +0000 To a movie-goer, few things are more delightful than a celebrity cameo. The very best ones either catch us completely off guard, or see our favourite stars sending themselves up by playing against type. So whose cameos have been the most surprising over the years?

I was one and the lead singer of the Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger, was the other. The contrast could not have been sharper: one in his mid-70s and retired into relative obscurity 15 years ago, the other turned 80 still strutting the stage and wowing audiences worldwide.

What’s more, this elemental way of dressing – of crisp classics and WASP-y traces, of reliable old faithfuls and time for leisure – is a ready foundation for adding your own twist.

Such is the case with Queer Eye’s Jonathan Van Ness, who has recently been accused of being “abusive” and having “rage issues”, as revealed in a new exposé published by Rolling Stone on Tuesday.

He sleeps hanging upside-down. “That’s the cue for a song!” retorts Jones. “I don’t think there is anything unusual I do,” he adds, before conceding that maybe it is just a little abnormal that he dangles feet first from an inversion table every day. “Well, most days.” It sounds like he is jesting – sleeping suspended from the ceiling is a parody of rock star silliness, played for laughs by the hardened British roadie of Wayne’s World 2, who learned it on... https://www.scmp.com/lifestyle/entertainment/article/3253320/tom-jones-elvis-presley-king-charles-his-changing-voice-recent-songs-and-more-ahead-ages-stages-tour?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/lifestyle/entertainment/article/3253320/tom-jones-elvis-presley-king-charles-his-changing-voice-recent-songs-and-more-ahead-ages-stages-tour?utm_source=rss_feed Tue, 27 Feb 2024 09:45:13 +0000 An Australian photographer said he was punched by Taylor Swift’s father on a wharf on Sydney Harbour early on Tuesday morning after her final concert in the city, prompting a police investigation.

From kissing each other on the red carpet to posing with their hands around one another’s waists, the lovebirds – who have a 39-year age gap – showed that their relationship is going stronger than ever.

Arguably the last noteworthy guitar band to emerge in the 2010s, the British post-punks became fast festival favourites – thanks to the retro cross-cut guitar assault, soapbox-worthy choruses and inclusive megaphone-messaging of politics big and small, found on dynamite debut LP Brutalism (2017) and even better follow-up Joy as an Act of Resistance (2018).

Although the singer, whose legal name is Casandra Ventura, has withdrawn from the spotlight in recent years, Cassie is still beloved by fans of 2000s club jams. On Thursday, she filed a lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs alleging abuse throughout their 11-year relationship, from 2007 to 2018, including rape. A lawyer for Combs denied the allegations.

In between lounging on lavish yachts and releasing new music, the Rolling Stones rock legend also manages to find time for his love life with long-time girlfriend Melanie Hamrick. Earlier this week, the couple was spotted enjoying a date night at the American Ballet Theatre Fall Gala in New York.

It puts the product under the microscope.” Farber has pondered this question a lot, because his business partner is the actor Idris Elba.

The two superstars were linked back in 2012. Although neither ever clarified their relationship status, they seemed to confirm something by taking a stroll in Central Park together.

My father was a test pilot involved in the development of the Royal Air Force’s Vulcan bomber. By the time I was 10, I was focused on discovering what was going on in the wider world.
