It's a shame that Salman Khan didn't face any punishment for mentally and physically harassing Aishwarya rai for so long *This is from 2003 Filmfare Awards night He created quite a tamasha.. He entered the venue drunk and, on seeing Aishwarya seated in the first row, insisted on sitting next to her. The person sitting beside her was forced to vacate the seat. Once he was next to her, he tried talking to her. But after realizing that she was ignoring him completely, he forcibly put his hand around her and kissed her in front of everybody. As expected, Rai was visibly embarrassed. She tried her best not to let it become apparent while being photographed with her drunk boyfriend by the press photographers. But Salman kept getting closer to her despite her growing irritation. After a while, when she was called to go on stage to present an award, he insisted that he would accompany her. Aishwarya changed her mind altogether and didn't go on stage. But her decision only worsened his temper, and he started shouting at her loudly for all to hear. After that, Aishwarya was very upset, and Preity Zinta came and sat with her to cheer her up. Aishwarya was so embarrassed by the public tamasha that she was the only actress who didn't attend the after party held at the Marriott Hotel. In fact, she went home in tears

JUST IN: Fani Willis' pregnant daughter Kinaya Willis arrested in Tyrone, Georgia for driving with a suspended license. Kinaya was initially pulled over because she was driving while using a cell phone. Kinaya then appeared to blame the incident on her mother, saying she was using her cell phone while driving because “her mother [was] calling her related to her pregnancy.” Willis’ daughter said she didn’t realize her license was suspended.

This is Chomzy and her husband celebrating the child of his first wife after “forcefully” taking him away from his mom. Previously, the woman came out to say the husband was cheating on her with Chomzy and was physically abusing her. She also claimed he was trying to use his money to take the baby away. She was attacked by Chomzy on Snapchat and was called names. After he married Sister Chomzy, she has become the mother figure and as you can see, she is the one receiving the praises. While the mother is not given that honor 🖤🤍. And the question is “Why is Sister Chomzy receiving this for a child that is not hers???”

I genuinely cannot understand how someone can watch this story and still stand there, looking at two women, and somehow decide that the wrong one is the victim. On one side, you have a girl (Yıldız) who has been mistreated her entire life. Since the moment she was born, she was treated like a sacrifice for a conflict she was never even part of and later we find out that this conflict never even existed. Her right to study was taken from her. She was pushed into a marriage at a very young age just imagine being six, seven, eight years old, living in fear of being tied to someone you don’t even know. She was treated like a servant in her own home, by the very people she thought were her family. And just when she gets close to the happiness she dreamed of, the man she was engaged to shows up with another wife. She gets mistreated by that wife, by his family, and even (unintentionally) by him, because he was trying to run away from his own feelings, and that only caused her more heartbreak. The whole world was literally against her. She fought through all of that, only to find out in the end that everything she suffered for was based on something that wasn’t even real. Her entire life was built on a lie. That she isn’t even part of that family that she has literally no one in this world. Now on the other side… You have a girl (Melek) who, yes, was taken from her biological mother but she was raised by loving parents. She had everything anyone could wish for: education, freedom, a happy childhood, a healthy environment. She lived her life, fell in love, went out, made choices and no one questioned her, no one controlled her. And then what did she do? She found out that her man was engaged to another woman before marrying her (and even saw him marry her) and instead of holding on to her dignity, she chose to stay, to fight for a man who lied to her, to hold onto a marriage he tried to end multiple times. She used her unborn child to keep him tied to her. She lied constantly, and her excuse was that she was “protecting her marriage” a marriage that was already broken from the moment Serhat removed that ring at the airport in episode one. She tried to hand Yıldız (a woman who had already suffered enough) over to dangerous people. Then she found out the truth about her own birth (that her father ra*ped her mother.)And still no empathy. No moment of humanity toward her own mother. All she cared about was herself. And even though none of this had anything to do with Yıldız, she still found a way to blame it on her. Instead of holding her father accountable, she went and made a deal with him to get rid of Yıldız. She literally made a deal with the devil just to hurt Yıldız one more time. And after all of that… you want me to feel sorry for her? You want me to call her a victim? I honestly cannot believe we are living on the same planet with people who see this and still say, “she’s the victim.” Not morally. Not logically. Not emotionally. There is no world where this makes sense. It’s like watching someone clearly cause harm, and still calling them the victim and actually BELIEVING it. #HalefKöklerinÇağrısı

How Sridevi’s Entry Changed Mona Kapoor’s World Forever Mona Kapoor and Boney Kapoor married in 1983 when she was just 19. Their marriage lasted 13 years before Boney fell in love with Sridevi. According to reports, Sridevi was a close friend of Mona and had even stayed at their home for a period. Boney Kapoor was reportedly so impressed by Sridevi that he was determined to cast her in his film and even offered more than the amount initially demanded by her mother, who managed her career at the time. In a 2007 interview, Mona recalled the shock of learning that her husband was in love with someone else. She said there was no point in giving the relationship a second chance because Sridevi was pregnant, and she felt it was better to move on. Mona also spoke about how the divorce affected her children, Arjun and Anshula, who reportedly faced taunts in school and struggled through the difficult phase. Mona Kapoor once said: “Don’t let the enemy do what a friend can do.”

Peggy lived alone at the end of Hawthorn Lane, and the only one who really kept an eye on her was a big black Doberman named Bear. People in the neighborhood used to cross the street when they saw him. He looked like the kind of dog you read about in the wrong kind of story, all muscle and sharp ears. But anybody who actually knew Peggy knew that Bear followed her around the house like a shadow and slept on the floor beside her bed every night. Peggy was 79 and stubborn about living on her own. Her son had been after her for a year to move somewhere with people around, and she kept telling him she was fine, that she had Bear and that was plenty. One morning in the kitchen, she reached up for a mug on the top shelf and her legs just went out from under her. She came down hard on the tile and couldn't get herself back up. Her phone was on the counter, way out of reach, and the house was dead quiet except for her own breathing. Bear was at her side before she even finished falling. He nosed at her face and pressed against her, and when she told him to go, he ran to the front window and started barking, the deep kind the whole street could hear. He wouldn't stop, going from the window to Peggy and back again, over and over, until a neighbor two doors down finally came out to see what all the noise was about. She found Peggy on the floor and Bear standing guard over her, and she had the ambulance there within minutes. Peggy came home a week later with a cracked hip and a new respect for that dog. She still won't hear a word about moving. She says she already lives with somebody who looks out tor her.

In Remembrance of Hedy Lamarr. Born | November 9, 1914 in Vienna, Austria. Died | January 19, 2000 aged 85 in Casselberry, Florida, USA. Hedy Lamarr, the woman many critics and fans alike regard as the most beautiful ever to appear in films, was born Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler in Vienna, Austria. She was the daughter of Gertrud (Lichtwitz), from Budapest, and Emil Kiesler, a banker from Lemberg (now known as Lviv). Her parents were both from Jewish families. Hedwig had a calm childhood, but it was cinema that fascinated her. By the time she was a teenager, she decided to drop out of school and seek fame as an actress, and was a student of theatre director Max Reinhardt in Berlin. Her first role was a bit part in the German film Geld auf der Straße (1930) (aka “Money on the Street”) in 1930. She was attractive and talented enough to be in three more German productions in 1931, but it would be her fifth film that catapulted her to worldwide fame. In 1932 she appeared in a Czech film called Ekstase (US title: “Ecstasy”) and had made the gutsy move to appear nude. It's the story of a young girl who is married to a gentleman much older than she, but she winds up falling in love with a young soldier. The film's nude scenes created a sensation all over the world. The scenes, very tame by today's standards, caused the film to be banned by the U.S. government at the time. Hedy soon married Fritz Mandl, a munitions manufacturer and a prominent Austrofascist. He attempted to buy up all the prints of “Ecstasy” he could lay his hands on (Italy's dictator, Benito Mussolini, had a copy but refused to sell it to Mandl), but to no avail (there are prints floating around the world today). The notoriety of the film brought Hollywood to her door. She was brought to the attention of MGM mogul Louis B. Mayer, who signed her to a contract (a notorious prude when it came to his studio's films, Mayer signed her against his better judgment, but the money he knew her notoriety would bring in to the studio overrode any moral concerns he may have had). However, he insisted she change her name and make good, wholesome films. Hedy starred in a series of exotic adventure epics. She made her American film debut as Gaby in Algiers (1938). This was followed a year later by Lady of the Tropics (1939). In 1942, she played the plum role of Tondelayo in the classic White Cargo (1942). After World War II, her career began to decline, and MGM decided it would be in the interest of all concerned if her contract were not renewed. Unfortunately for Hedy, she turned down the leads in both Gaslight (1940) and Casablanca (1942), both of which would have cemented her standing in the minds of the American public. At the beginning of World War II, along with composer George Antheil, Lamarr co-invented a radio guidance system for Allied torpedoes that used spread spectrum and frequency hopping technology to defeat the threat of radio jamming by the Axis powers. This approach, conceptualised as a “Secret Communication System”, was intended to provide secure, jam-resistant communication for weapon guidance by spreading the signal across multiple frequencies. Similar technology was used in operational systems only beginning in 1962, which was well after World War II and three years after the expiry of the Lamarr-Antheil patent. Frequency hopping, which existed and was utilised before the Lamarr-Antheil patent, is a foundational technology for spread spectrum communications. Its principles are utilised for secure wireless networking, including Bluetooth and early versions of Wi-Fi, which use variants of spread spectrum to protect data from interception and interference. In 1949, Hedy Lamarr starred as Delilah opposite Victor Mature's Samson in Cecil B. DeMille's epic Samson and Delilah (1949). This proved to be Paramount Pictures' then most profitable movie to date, bringing in $12 million in rental from theatres. The film's success led to more parts, but it was not enough to ease her financial crunch. She made only six more films between 1949 and 1957, the last being The Female Animal (1957). The 1970s was a decade of increasing seclusion for Lamarr. She was offered several scripts, television commercials, and stage projects, but none piqued her interest. In 1974, she filed a $10 million lawsuit against Warner Bros., claiming that the running parody of her name (“Hedley Lamarr”) in the Mel Brooks comedy Blazing Saddles infringed her right to privacy. Brooks said he was flattered. The studio settled out of court for an undisclosed nominal sum and an apology to Lamarr for “almost using her name”. Brooks said that Lamarr “never got the joke”. In 1981, with her eyesight failing, Lamarr retreated from public life and settled in Miami Beach, Florida. A large Corel-drawn image of Lamarr won CorelDRAW's yearly software suite cover design contest in 1996. For several years, beginning in 1997, it was featured on boxes of the software suite. Lamarr sued the company for using her image without her permission. Corel countered that she did not own rights to the image. The parties reached an undisclosed settlement in 1998. For her contribution to the motion picture industry, Lamarr has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6247 Hollywood Boulevard adjacent to Vine Street where the walk is centered. Lamarr became estranged from her older son, James Lamarr Loder, when he was 12 years old. Their relationship ended abruptly, and he moved in with another family. They did not speak again for almost 50 years. Lamarr left James Loder out of her will, and he sued for control of the US$3.3 million estate left by Lamarr in 2000. He eventually settled for US$50,000. In her later years, Lamarr lived in Altamonte Springs, Florida, before moving to Casselberry, Florida, in the final months of her life. She communicated with family and friends almost exclusively by telephone. However, after moving to Casselberry, two friends who lived nearby would visit her at home to check on her a few times a week. On January 19, 2000, Lamarr was found dead at her home in Casselberry at the age of 85; the cause of death was heart disease. Her son Anthony Loder spread part of her ashes in Austria's Vienna Woods in accordance with her last wishes. In 2014, a memorial to Lamarr was unveiled in Vienna's Central Cemetery. The remainder of her ashes were buried there.

They did not speak again for almost 50 years. Lamarr left James Loder out of her will, and he sued for control of the US$3.3 million estate left by Lamarr in 2000. He eventually settled for US$50,000. In her later years, Lamarr lived in Altamonte Springs, Florida, before moving to Casselberry, Florida, in the final months of her life. She communicated with family and friends almost exclusively by telephone. However, after moving to Casselberry, two friends who lived nearby would visit her at home to check on her a few times a week. On January 19, 2000, Lamarr was found dead at her home in Casselberry at the age of 85; the cause of death was heart disease. Her son Anthony Loder spread part of her ashes in Austria's Vienna Woods in accordance with her last wishes. In 2014, a memorial to Lamarr was unveiled in Vienna's Central Cemetery. The remainder of her ashes were buried there.

🚨#BREAKING: A Minnesota mother, Bonnie Pierce, escaped her burning house only to realize her toddler was still inside… ...and she ran BACK into the flames. Firefighters found her wrapped around her baby girl, shielding her with her own body. ❤️ Her daughter, SURVIVED, she saved her life. Her name is Bonnie Pierce, she was 38, a mom from St. Paul, Minnesota. On Saturday afternoon, a fire broke out in the duplex where she was home with two of her daughters. One of the girls, Aurora, did something incredible to save herself. She kicked an air conditioning unit clean out of a window and climbed through it to safety. And Bonnie made it out too. She was OUT. She was safe. But her other little girl, Grace, still just a toddler, was somewhere back inside that burning building. Her mother, Bonnie, didn't think twice. She turned around and ran back into the fire. When firefighters fought their way in, they found her. She had wrapped her own body around her daughter, shielding that little girl from the flames and the smoke with everything she had left. Protecting her baby to the very end. Bonnie was found unresponsive, she'd been without oxygen for nearly 15 minutes. She had burns over 48% of her body. First responders and doctors fought for her with everything they had. But on Monday, Bonnie passed away from her injuries. Little Grace, the daughter she shielded with her own body… SURVIVED. She's still in the hospital. But doctors say she is expected to make a FULL recovery. That is a mother's love. Her home is now covered in flowers and chalk writing from friends that say "HERO" everywhere. Please keep Bonnie's family and both of her little girls in your prayers. GOD BLESS Bonnie Pierce. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

TRENDING: “Who is your dad, how did you get this Job?” — Zenith Bank allegedly asked a Tiktoker, before firing her for filming office VLOG. GRWM Becca was first queried in 2022 after joking about a whopping ₦10,000 salary increment, a joke that, according to her, management did not “get”. She was summoned before the Disciplinary Committee at the Head Office, where she was asked who her parents were and how she got the job. She told the that her father is a pastor and that she got the job by applying like everyone else. As a new employee and first-time offender, she appealed to this, and was subsequently pardoned. Months later, the company substantially increased salaries, which Becca believes happened, at least in part, because of the attention her video brought to the issue. As her social media following grew between 2024 and 2025, she received more warnings from management over the extensive workplace exposure in her videos. Becca initially didn’t understand the concern because she believed she was doing what everyone else was doing , dance. However, she eventually understood the company’s position and toned it down. In April, she posted a full office vlog, which immediately earned her another query and a fresh summons before the Disciplinary Committee. This time, a full panel. She was formally accused of inappropriately exposing the workplace in her content. She finally got the message, took down all the videos, stopped posting content about or showing the workplace, adhered to the guidelines, and limited her GRWM videos to her bedroom. Yet, on Thursday, July 23, 2026, she filmed her final GRWM. Upon arriving at work, her Branch Manager calmly broke the news: she had been asked to tender her resignation, effective immediately. Becca paused to catch her breath, then made her way downstairs to type what would become her final words; a quiet farewell to a career, a team, cherished friends, and a life she had built over the better part of half a decade. Fans are comparing Becca’s dismissal for content in Zenith Bank, with Tega who was apparently promoted for content at FCMB. However, many argue that, Tega did not show the bank’s vault in her videos.

This was the moment Wamata met her SWT family – and took her first helicopter flight. She was a small elephant, but it was a tight squeeze nonetheless. Her journey to safety began with an aerial sighting: a lone baby elephant, hiding in the forest. Our pilots conducted numerous searches to find her family, but came up short. With time running out, and a green light from the authorities to mount a rescue, we stepped in. To keep her calm during the flight, we gently secured her legs and placed a blanket over her eyes to reduce stimulation. Once at her destination – our Nairobi Nursery – this precious cargo was hand-delivered into a warm stable where her recovery began. That was back in 2024. Today, she is thriving. See how she looks now:

In this clip, #MeghanMarkle first passes the Pont Alexandre, then the Pont des Invalides, turns the camera to her putting her feet up in the limo as she passes the Pont de l’Alma where her mother in law was killed. What is WRONG with this chick? An ENTIRE CITY, and she has to film herself being so disrespectful? She HAD to know. She knew exactly where she was and exactly what she was doing. Harry, she really doesn’t like you, fool. And Prince William likely loathes her more. What a classless twat. #MeghanMarkleExposed #MeghanMarkleIsAMeanGirl #MeghanMarkleSucks

A 22-year-old woman, an IIT graduate and the daughter of a senior bureaucrat, was found dead at her home in southeast Delhi's East of Kailash area. Police said she was raped before being strangled to death with a phone charger. She was alone at home at the time of the incident. There were no signs of forced entry. Police have arrested a 19-year-old domestic help, Rahul, who had worked at the house and was dismissed over a month ago. "Investigations revealed that he used to play online games and would borrow money from other servants in the vicinity, or from domestic staff working in nearby households, without ever repaying them. This is why he was fired," Joint Commissioner of Police Vijay Kumar said. He was arrested from a hotel in the Dwarka area, where he had been hiding. He is being charged with rape, murder and robbery, police said. Rahul was seen in CCTV footage leaving the victim's residence at 6:28 am, police said. According to police, the woman was found by her family members inside the house under suspicious circumstances, after which the authorities were alerted. The victim had completed her schooling at DPS RK Puram and later graduated from IIT Delhi. She was preparing for the UPSC examination. She was also a dancer and had won several awards in dance competitions. Her elder brother holds a senior position in a multinational company, and her mother is a doctor. When police reached Rahul's residence in Alwar, they found that he had previously been involved in a sexual harassment case. Police said the accused arrived in Delhi from Alwar the previous night and is suspected to have entered the house using a spare key. Police said Rahul had been hired with a reference from a superintendent posted at the IRS officer's office.
