HE'S PUKING ALL OVER!: Trump Mocks James Talarico As Vegan, Jokes About Forced Meat-Eating

US President Donald Trump mocked Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico during a rally in South Carolina, repeatedly calling him a vegan and claiming he opposed meat, oil and guns. Trump joked that Talarico had begun attending barbecues for political reasons, making exaggerated remarks about being forced to eat meat and vomiting backstage. He also predicted that Talarico would return to his supposed vegan lifestyle after the election, regardless of the result. The remarks were part of Trump's broader criticism of Democratic candidates ahead of the midterms. The claims about Talarico's diet and positions were Trump's assertions, not independently established facts.

Jennifer Lawrence 'came down hard' after extra crew members were on set for nude scene

Digital Desk | Los Angeles, Oct 30 (IANS) Hollywood actress Jennifer Lawrence knows how to set firm boundaries. The actress said that she made it very clear that she is not happy with the presence of the unauthorised crew members who were present on set during a nude scene. The actress shared that she came down hard on the crew. The 36 year-old star has insisted being malleable is part of the job, including her dramatic hairstyle change for Die My Love, but there comes a time when she is ready to put her foot down to protect herself and others in the film industry. She recently appeared on the Call Her Daddy podcast, where she said, There was an instance on set where crew members who were not approved when I was doing nudity were on set. I came down hard on it, purely because if we are not setting that principle, then what on earth is going to happen to an 18-year-old unknown when she shows up and theres people on set who are not approved (to be there)? Shes going to be in a position of, Do I say something and get a reputation for being difficult, or do I let these people that Im not comfortable seeing me naked see me naked? It was important to me to explain that to the people why that was not okay. Jennifer previously explained that she wanted to give director Lynne Ramsay, 56, otal freedom artistically for Die My Love. Elsewhere in the podcast, the actress opened up about the unbelievable reunion as shes set to reprise her role in 'The Hunger Games' franchise more than a decade later alongside Josh Hutcherson, who played Katniss love interest Peeta in the original series, and Woody Harrelson as their mentor Haymitch. She shared, It was so emotional. Josh (Hutcherson) and I didnt walk to the bathroom without our arms around each other. It was so beautiful. The Silver Linings Playbook star went on to describe the nostalgic feeling. It was so crazy because it was the same crew, Lawrence said. It was the same camera guys, the same AD who Ive worked with a million times too because I love him, and Josh and Woody, she added.

Hasina Ouster Was Planned? Journalist's Explosive Charge Reveals Bangladesh Regime Change Conspiracy

A journalists disclosure has reopened the most explosive question in Bangladesh: was Sheikh Hasinas ouster planned before she fled? Shafiqul Alam says student leaders approached Muhammad Yunus two days before August 5, 2024. He claims journalist Qadaruddin Shishir served as the intermediary. The alleged contact came while Hasina was still in power and security forces were fighting to contain the unrest. Within days, Yunus was publicly nominated and then installed as interim leader. The timeline is striking, but it is not proof by itself. The protests, deaths and public anger were real. The unanswered issue is whether a parallel political plan was taking shape alongside the street movement. Hasinas long-standing conspiracy allegations have now received fresh political ammunition. The bigger story is not just how she fell, but whether the next government was chosen before she left. Shreya Chandra with more

Sara Ali Khan says holding back comedy was challenging for Udta Teer: You're not supposed to do comedy

Sara Ali Khan has spoken about the challenge of playing Yamini in Udta Teer, explaining why she had to hold back on comedy despite being part of a humour-driven film. The actress, who recently worked with Ayushmann Khurrana on Pati Patni Aur Woh Do, said that playing a character who grounds the humour rather than actively driving it required a different approach. Speaking about the experience, Sara said, It was challenging. I can say this for both Ayushmann and me. So, we just finished doing Pati Patni Aur Woh Do, where both of us have done a fair share of comedy. But now, we're bang in the centre of this comedy, where we are not allowed to be comic. She explained that the challenge lay in resisting the instinct to turn every moment into a comic one. So, as an actor I ask, What should I do? Holding back, having a certain level of pause, and telling yourself that you're not supposed to do comedy that was one of the most challenging things, she said. Sara also credited her co-star for making the experience easier, adding that both actors had to adjust to a different dynamic after their previous project. I'm lucky that Ayushmann was with me in that. Because with Pati Patni..., we were at the forefront of comedy. And here, we're in a film where the comedy happens around us, and to some degree because of us. Sara Ali Khan on balancing humour and emotion in Udta Teer Explaining the need for restraint, Sara said that a comedy requires moments of grounding to make its situations feel believable. But sometimes in a world where everyone is joking around, everything is humorous, there have to be elements of grounding, and rootedness to make it a realistic experience, she said. The actress also reflected on how the role differed from her usual approach to performing. In my personal life, for sure, I'm not used to being the rooted factor. I'm always the funny one. So, it was quite fun to not bring what I usually bring, glamour and humour, she added. Sara's comments offer insight into her approach to Yamini, a character who is part of the film's comic situations without necessarily being the source of every joke. Her performance also moves between humour and emotion, with a more serious moment before the climax followed by a comic sequence. Udta Teer features Sara Ali Khan and Ayushmann Khurrana in key roles. The film's comedy-driven narrative required the actors to approach their characters differently from their previous collaboration, Pati Patni Aur Woh Do.
