Adam Brody Quietly Shows His Adoration For Wife Leighton Meester With 1 Simple Act

Posted on 07/01/2025 by Boris Clair

Chuck Bass would never.

Adam Brody proved chivalry isn’t dead during a sweet moment with his wife, Leighton Meester, on the Golden Globes red carpet on Sunday night.

In a TikTok video shared by the French magazine Gala, the two actors can be seen approaching photographers on the carpet when the Gossip Girl alum suddenly stops and stands to the side as her husband takes his mark to pose solo.

The move could be interpreted as a supportive one being that it was technically Adam’s night – he had been nominated for an award for his role in the Netflix comedy Nobody Wants This.

However, the O.C. alum clearly wanted to share the moment with his wife and gestured for her to join him.

She then trotted over, wrapped her arm around Adam and stroked his back affectionately. After a couple of photos were snapped of the pair, Leighton went off to the side again to let her husband have his moment alone.

When the clip made its way to X – formerly called Twitter – fans of the couple were completely smitten.

Adam and Leighton tied the knot in 2014 after meeting on the set of the movie The Oranges three years earlier.

Since then, they have welcomed two children, nine-year-old Arlo and a four-year-old son, whose name has not yet been shared publicly.

Although the couple is relatively private, Adam did open up on Today in September about how he and Leighton make their marriage work.

“Pick someone good,” the actor said of his wife. “Be lucky and be in love with someone who’s great and then just kind of listen to them.”

He continued: “If you’re with someone great, you’re on third base. Not that it doesn’t take sacrifice and humility, and you have to grow together, and you have to be willing to grow, because you’re not going to be able to stay 100% right where you are.

“But if you’re with someone wonderful, I think you’re on third [base].”

Fans Think Zendaya’s First Tattoo Is A Tribute To Tom Holland Amid Engagement Rumours

Posted on 07/01/2025 by Boris Clair

With the whole world currently speculating about whether Zendaya and Tom Holland are really engaged, fans think they’ve spotted another sign of the Euphoria star’s devotion to her long-term partner.

On Sunday night, Zendaya made headlines when she was pictured sporting a dazzling ring on what is traditionally considered the engagement finger on the Golden Globes red carpet.

Following this, multiple US outlets reported that the Spider-Man co-stars are now engaged, although the two actors are currently keeping schtum about the rumours.

However, it wasn’t just Zendaya’s ring that caught fans’ eyes on the Golden Globes red carpet.

Many also pointed out that it looks like the Challengers performer has had her first ink in tribute to her rumoured fiancé.

Zoom in on this photo of Zendaya and you might spot something interesting

Zendaya’s strapless dress on the red carpet appeared to reveal a lower-case “t” tattooed on her ribcage.

Coupled with these latest engagement rumours, you can imagine that this sparked a big reaction from her devoted fans on social media…

Another clip filmed at this year’s Golden Globes ceremony appears to depict Zendaya showing off her engagement ring to movie producer Amy Pascal…

The Los Angeles Times also reported that a newly-engaged reporter for the outlet shared a wordless exchange with Zendaya over their rings – although they crucially noted that she never actually confirmed whether or not she is engaged herself.

According to TMZ, the two are freshly engaged, after Tom allegedly popped the question over the festive period.

HuffPost UK has contacted Zendaya and Tom Holland’s teams for comment.

Zendaya and Tom had already been dating for several years before they confirmed they were an item in 2021, having met on the set of the superhero movie Spider-Man: Homecoming.

The pair are currently gearing up to share the screen once again in Oscar-winning director Christopher Nolan’s follow-up to his hit film Oppenheimer, which will be an adaptation of the epic The Odyssey.

It Looks Like Netflix Just Accidentally Let Slip The Exact Release Date For Squid Game Season 3

Posted on 03/01/2025 by Boris Clair

It would appear that Squid Game fans’ patience when it came to season two is being rewarded.

Squid Game returned for its long-awaited second season last week, more than three years after the South Korean drama became a global hit thanks to word-of-mouth.

A third and final season has already been filmed, with Netflix revealing earlier this week that the show would be back on our screens later this year.

However, it looks like the streaming giant may have revealed more than it intended to.

News of Squid Game’s 2025 return was confirmed in a video that was shared on Netflix’s social media pages.

According to Forbes, the version of this video that briefly went live in South Korea featured a more specific message listing the launch date of Squid Game season three as 27 June 2025.

If this is true, fans will have to wait just six months for the final outing of the award-winning drama, compared to the epic wait between its first and second seasons.

HuffPost UK has contacted the Squid Game publicity team for clarification.

Squid Game creator Hwang Dong-hyuk recently claimed that he only wanted the show to run for two series, but when putting together the idea for its second run, decided this would work better as a two-season arc.

He explained: “I originally envisioned it as a single series, so both seasons two and three as a single series when I was writing it.

“But then, as I wrote the story along, it became to be too many episodes and too long of a story because you see Gi-hun’s journey where he returns to the game, but also he goes through a revolt, and that is actually the climax of that storyline, where he tries to create an uprising, but then that all goes to failure.”

Dong-hyuk also told Variety: “As for the storyline of the third season, Gi-hun having lost everything, including his best friend, and all of his attempts going to failure, it’s now, what is he going to be like? What state is Gi-hun going to be in? And what will he choose to do?

“Will he continue on with the mission? Is he going to give up or persist? And so you’re going to meet our character Gi-hun at a very critical crossroads as we begin the third season. Gi-hun will not be the man he was in season two.”

The first two seasons of Squid Game are available to stream now on Netflix.

This Is The Very Sweet Reason You Rarely See Tom Holland And Zendaya On A Red Carpet Together

Posted on 03/01/2025 by Boris Clair

Considering they’re arguably the “it” couple in Hollywood right now, you actually see Tom Holland and Zendaya out and about together a lot less than you might expect.

And the British actor has said there’s a good reason for this.

In a wide-ranging new interview with Men’s Health, Tom opened up about keeping a low-profile, particularly when it comes to premieres for his girlfriend’s projects.

He explained that even when he attends premieres of the Challengers star’s shows and films, he tends not to walk the red carpet alongside her so as not to distract from her moment in the spotlight.

“It’s not my moment, it’s her moment, and if we go together, it’s about us,” he claimed.

An exception to this would be Marvel’s Spider-Man movies, in which they appear together as Peter Parker and MJ.

Tom went on to say that while he typically avoids public appearances – and trips to the theatre need to be “booked in advance” to avoid a furore – he isn’t above doing his own grocery shopping.

In fact, he recently had to dissipate a brawl at a Whole Foods in LA, recalling to the men’s magazine: “[Two men were] like going at it, right behind me. I can see that [one of them] recognised me immediately, and you could see the wheels turning, like, ‘I’m really angry, but Spider-Man is telling me to calm down’.”

He also shared that he plans to retire from public life once he becomes a dad, claiming: “When I have kids, you will not see me in movies anymore. [My life will be] golf and dad. And I will just disappear off the face of the earth.”

You can read Tom Holland’s full interview (and, indeed, admire the eye-catching accompanying photo-shoot) in the latest issue of Men’s Health.

Squid Game Has Already Been Toppled As The Number 1 Show On Netflix Right Now

Posted on 03/01/2025 by Boris Clair

The return of Squid Game was undoubtedly one of last year’s most anticipated TV moments.

At the end of December, the award-winning dystopian drama premiered its second season on Netflix, more than three years after its inaugural run became a global sleeper hit thanks to word of mouth.

Season two certainly pulled in the viewers, reaching the number one spot on Netflix’s most-watched list in a whopping 93 countries.

However, its time at number one only ended up lasting a week here in the UK.

At the time of writing, Squid Game has now fallen to number two in the Netflix TV chart, behind the new mystery series Missing You.

Harlan Coben’s latest collaboration with Netflix premiered on New Year’s Day, boasting an all-star cast that includes Rosalind Eleazar, Steve Pemberton, Sir Lenny Henry, Jessica Plummer, Busted singer Matt Willis and, naturally, Richard Armitage, who previously appeared in Fool Me Once and The Stranger.

Missing You is currently Netflix's number one show — Missing You is currently Netflix’s number one show

A third season of Squid Game is already confirmed to be coming, which will complete Gi-hun’s story.

While a release date for the third run – which it’s thought has already been confirmed – is yet to be confirmed, creator Hwang Dong-hyuk told Variety last month: “At this point, anything I might say is going to be a spoiler, so I want to be cautious.

“But what I can say is, after season two launches, I believe we will be announcing the launch date for season three soon. I probably expect that to launch around summer or fall next year.”

Michelle Keegan Announces She’s Pregnant With Her First Child

Posted on 30/12/2024 by Boris Clair

Michelle Keegan has announced that she is pregnant.

On Sunday evening, the former Coronation Street star and her husband Mark Wright revealed that they were expecting their first child in a joint Instagram post.

The announcement was made alongside a photo of the Fool Me Once actor and former The Only Way Is Essex cast member posing on a beach, with Michelle cradling her pregnant stomach.

“2025 is going to be a special one for us,” they wrote, adding a baby emoji for good measure.

Michelle and Mark are thought to have begun their relationship in late 2012, eventually tying the knot in May 2015.

Throughout their time in the spotlight, Michelle and Mark have both been open about their hopes to become parents.

Back in 2018, Michelle told Women’s Health: “I’ve always been broody. I love kids, and I want four, so hopefully in the near future.”

In an interview with The Sun a year later, Mark added: “We say we’re going to try [for a baby] every year but something comes up with work.

“So it’ll be Michelle filming in South Africa [for Our Girl] and then I got the job in Los Angeles [presenting for Extra] – so we think, ‘right, we’ll try next year’.”

In more recent history, Michelle has spoken about her frustration at constantly being grilled by journalists about whether she wants to start a family, branding such questions sexist.

Michelle told The Mirror: “It’s horrible. People don’t know if we’re trying. They don’t know the background of what’s happening. In this day and age, you shouldn’t be asking questions like that.

“I’m asked purely because I’m a woman. But I’m immune to it now – it’s like a reaction, and as soon as I hear it I brush it off as it’s no one else’s business.”

“I get asked about children whereas Mark wouldn’t for example,” she told Women’s Health in 2020. ”‘Why haven’t I had a child? When am I going to have a child?’. I don’t know what they want me to say. I don’t know what the right or wrong answer is.”

Asked if her family are as guilty as the press for asking her questions about starting a family, she quipped: “Not any more! People don’t mean any harm by it, but they know what the answer’s going to be.”

Singer-songwriter Nadine Shah had been through a turbulent few years while putting together her fifth album, Filthy Underneath – culminating in the death of her mother, a divorce and a stint in a mental health facility.

On her fifth album, Nadine didn’t shy away from any of this when recording Filthy Underneath. Reflecting on some of her darkest times with frankness, courage and, often, a refreshing sense of humour – most notably on lead single Greatest Dancer, in which she reflects on a night in watching Strictly with her mother during lockdown, while under the influence of her mum’s pain medication, and follow-up Topless Mother, in which she pokes fun a former therapist. There’s also a beautiful ode to her late mum on See My Girl, and a lament about the current climate in the UK on Sad Lads Anonymous.

Although its heavy themes don’t make for the easiest of listens, the eclectic Filthy Underneath’s production is also a feast for the ears – like a mix of Rahim Redcar and David Bowie, in a Geordie accent.

Ariana Grande has done some of her best work with pop superproducer Max Martin, so fans were overjoyed when they found out the pair would be reuniting in a big way on her seventh album.

The result was Eternal Sunshine, on which Ariana and the Swedish pop juggernaut worked on all but three of the final tracklisting.

Of course, by the time the album came along, the Grammy winner had a few things to get off her chest after finding herself at the centre of tabloid headlines about the breakdown of her marriage and subsequent relationship with Broadway performer Ethan Slater, who she met while still working on Wicked.

Ari kicked off the new era with Yes, And?, a breezy house-inspired bop where she takes on her critics head-on (“why do you care so much whose **** I ride?” she ponders at one point), while elsewhere she sends up her own reputation on singles We Can’t Be Friends and The Boy Is Mine, as well as album cut True Story.

There are also personal moments when Ari reflects on romance past and present on the likes of Bye, I Wish I Hated You, the beautiful Imperfect For You and Ordinary Things, which ends the collection with a voicenote from the singer’s beloved Nonna.

After the more experimental sound of her ambitious break-up album Star-Crossed, Kacey Musgraves went back to her roots on Deeper Well, both in terms of its more simplistic and organic instrumentation, but also its stripped-back visuals.

The title songs sees Kacey reintroduce fans to herself at a new, more reflective stage of her life, while the rest of the album sees the Grammy winner analysing various aspects of her life.

She also asks big questions, pondering the existence of God on The Architect and Heaven Is, before ending on a hopeful note with the pretty Anime Eyes and Nothing To Be Scared Of, as she looks ahead to a new romance.

After capturing her attention with Renaissance, Beyoncé decided to head in a completely different direction with the second part of her three-act musical project.

Bey’s performance at the Country Music Awards in 2016 was infamous not because of anything she did on stage, but because of the frosty reception she received from certain members of the crowd, despite the song she was performing at the ceremony – Daddy Lessons – being so obviously rooted in country music.

It may have taken the Texas-born star the better part of a decade, but she eventually issued her rebuttal in Cowboy Carter, after really doing her homework on the origins of country music, and used her album not just to highlight Black performers who are currently excelling in the genre, but also shining a light on those who came before her.

She also made sure to have the co-sign from some genuine country music legends, like Dolly Parton (whose song Jolene she covered) and Willie Nelson – but never one to limit herself, Beyoncé also tries on other genres for size on Cowboy Carter too, dipping her pedicured toes into everything from gospel and soul to funk and classic rock and roll.

“This ain’t a Country album. This is a Beyoncé album,” Beyoncé said of her eighth full-length release, and it’s hard to argue with that thesis.

On their debut release, it’s fair to say that British four-piece English Teacher came out of the gate strong.

Described by critics as “chaotic” and full of “surprises”, This Could Be Texas certainly keeps listeners on their toes over its 50 minutes, eventually peaking within the top 10 here in the UK and, crucially, earning them the coveted Mercury Prize title over the likes of Charli XCX, Corrine Bailey Rae, Ghetts and Brit Award winners The Last Dinner Party.

Undoubtedly one of the year’s most talked-about and commercially-successful albums, The Tortured Poets Department was something of a surprise release from Taylor Swift – particularly when release day saw her dropping another unexpected 14 tracks for the special edition.

After taking a more outward-facing approach with the songwriting on her hit albums Folklore and Evermore, and looking back on follow-up Midnights, Tortured Poets saw the Grammy winner returning to the more confessional – though veiled – lyricism she was synonymous with earlier in her career.

While much of the album is perceived as a break-up record about her short-lived romance with The 1975 frontman Matty Healy (and the ensuing media furore that it created), she also alludes to her split from her long-time partner Joe Alwyn and looking ahead to her new relationship with NFL player Travis Kelce.

And with song titles like The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived, I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can) and So Long, London, The Tortured Poets Department is Taylor at her most unflinching.

We’re going to say it – Rachel Chinouriri’s Never Need Me is probably the best single released by a British performer in 2024, and follow-up album What A Devastating Turn Of Events proved there’s so much more that this artist is capable of.

It Is What It Is and the brilliantly-titled Dumb Butch Juice continue the conversational style first showcased on Never Need Me, as she reflects on past relationship drama in an extremely relatable way, while elsewhere on the album Rachel broaches difficult and – at times – heartwrenching topics in a ways many artists a lot further into their careers would struggle with, singing about everything from body image and self-harm to loneliness and gender inequality with both confidence and sensitivity.

Here’s hoping a support act on Sabrina Carpenter’s 2025 tour can help boost Rachel’s career to the next level as even more people discover this must-listen album.

Billie Eilish returned to the music scene with a quiet confidence in 2024 (we imagine that second Oscar winner probably helped with that), dropping her strongest and most personal release to date on Hit Me Hard And Soft.

Having been in the spotlight since she was a teenager, Billie’s third album introduced the chart-topping singer at a different stage in her life, singing about new themes and diving headfirst into new genres, spawning two of 2024’s biggest hits in Lunch and Birds Of A Feather.

Alright, this is the biggie. The album that pretty much defined 2024, Brat marked the first album Charli XCX put out after renewing her record deal, and it became apparent pretty early on with the uncompromising Von Dutch and 360 – not to mention the album’s acidic green hues – that the British singer was doing things her way this time around.

Once people began to catch on, the era only grew in scale, from the confessional Girl, So Confusing remix with Lorde, the viral Apple dance and the arrival of “Brat summer”, culminating in A-list guest features on the re-released version, an Album Of The Year nomination at next year’s Grammys and even Brat creeping into the US election.

All we can say is, now Charli’s had a massive hit on her hands with something so unapologetically bold and true to her own vision, we can’t wait to see what she follows the Brat era with.

She’s been quietly working away in the music industry for a good few years now, but 2024 was the year it all really paid off for Sabrina Carpenter.

Few can say they’ve had a year as big as her, with three massive number ones under her belt (not to mention an extra two top 20s), and even a Netflix special over the Christmas period, pushing her from a little-known cult figure to a real force to be reckoned with in the music industry.

Short N’ Sweet might not be a debut – it’s actually Sabrina’s sixth album overall – but it still feels like a breakthrough moment for a young star really discovering what kind of artist they are in the past year.

Fontaines D.C. took their biggest swing yet on the more electronic-inspired Romance, earning them their best reviews and sales to date, and a legion of new fans.

The Irish rock group’s fourth album even wound up earning them their first nominations at next year’s Grammys, where they’re in the running for both Best Rock Album and Best Alternative Music Performance for lead single Starburster (which saw the band working with music video legend Aube Perrie on the accompanying clip).

This one’s technically a mixtape rather than a proper album, but it’s just so strong we couldn’t quite bring ourselves to exclude it.

We’ve been championing Doechii for a good few years now, after she proved herself to be one of the most exciting and shape-shifting stars on the music scene. Alligator Bites Never Heal is her strongest work to date, showing off just how capable Doechii is at anything she tries her hand at. When her proper debut album inevitably follows in 2025, watch out.

Award-winning rapper Tyler, The Creator went back to his roots on Chromakopia which he said was his way of paying tribute to his early life growing up in California before rising to fame as part of Odd Future.

The album got underway with the elaborate music video for Noid, co-starring Ayo Edebiri, with the boundary-pushing album following a week later.

Like his previous acclaimed releases Igor and Flower Boy, Chromakopia sees Tyler confidently hopping from genre to genre, this time with a seriously impressive bunch of collaborators including Solange, Lil Wayne, British singer-songwriter Lola Young, electro singer Santigold and fellow rapper Doechii.

After stand-alone singles like Not Like Us and Meet The Graham captured the world’s attention over the summer, rap superstar Kendrick Lamar rounded off 2024 with GNX, which gave him yet more commercial and critical success and proved he had the goods to back up what he was saying on those scene-stealing Drake disses.

Next year is shaping up to be another huge one for the Pulitzier Prize winner, who’ll follow his performance at the Super Bowl Halftime Show with a mammoth US tour, where he’ll team up with frequent collaborator SZA.

28 Most Hilarious Celebrity Videos From 2024 That We’re Still Howling At Now

Posted on 27/12/2024 by Boris Clair

There’s no getting it around it – 2024 hasn’t exactly been a non-stop barrel of laughs when it comes to the news cycle and and world events.

We’re happy, then, that the past year has gifted us some truly brilliant comedy moments (both intentional and unintentional) to take our mind off… well… everything else that’s been going on, at least for a minute or two.

As the year draws to a close, we’re looking back at 28 of our favourite laugh-out-loud hilarious and otherwise ridiculous celebrity moments from the last 12 months…

Let’s start with the man of the hour, Strictly Come Dancing winner Chris McCausland, whose one-liners over the course of the series provided plenty of laughs

In fact, this year’s Strictly gave us some brilliant moments, most notably Nikita Kuzmin’s epic musical blunder

And while we’re on the subject of Strictly Come Dancing and musical blunders – we have to give this clip a special mention

Carlos Gu’s fabulous costume during Halloween week definitely needs a shout-out, too

Oh! And who could forget when none other than Nessa Jenkins made a surprise cameo during the live final?

Way back in January, the nation’s jaws hit the floor when The Traitors competitor Diane Carson dropped three little words

Speaking of “hitting the floor” (sorry, Alison!)

Yes, Alison Hammond continued to bring us an endless list of joyful moments in 2024, including this epic reunion with Ryan Gosling and an unfortunate (though, apparently, deliberate!) choice of words

Some more of 2024’s most unintentionally hilarious celebrity interview moments came when Jordan North tried to explain the concept of a chip butty to Billie Eilish…

…Amelia Dimoldenberg struggled to get on the same wavelength as Sabrina Carpenter…

…Paul Mescal seemingly knew less about himself than one of his super-fans…

…and Miriam Margolyes made her feelings on grown-up Harry Potter fans abundantly clear

Meanwhile, the return of Celebrity Big Brother gave us this extremely sincere apology from Lauren Simon and Louis Walsh (and some excellent reactions from the rest of the house)…

This morning’s light-relief-from-the-election “And Finally” story focused on hazel dormice, and @BBCMaryam had her Ron Burgundy moment.

It’s great to see some “personality” returning to the channel when the mood permits. pic.twitter.com/tH3x0VPUv9

While this outtake from Hannah Waddingham at the Oliviers certainly delivered on laughs

Hannah also went viral at the TV Baftas for her hilarious reaction to losing an award to Strictly Come Dancing (that’s a secret flask in her bracelet, by the way)

Every second of this Joe Lycett speech from the same night is just excellent

The Bridgerton cast took us all behind the scenes of season three – including this impromptu dance party

While Nicola Coughlan also pranked co-star Luke Newton in a big way

Every moment of the Wicked press tour was a pretty wild ride, but we’ll always be holding space for this clip in particular

To promote the film, Ariana Grande made another epic appearance on Saturday Night Live – and while it’s hard to narrow her efforts down to just one clip, we think this one is still our favourite

Let’s start with the man of the hour, Strictly Come Dancing winner Chris McCausland, whose one-liners over the course of the series provided plenty of laughs

In fact, this year’s Strictly gave us some brilliant moments, most notably Nikita Kuzmin’s epic musical blunder

And while we’re on the subject of Strictly Come Dancing and musical blunders – we have to give this clip a special mention

Carlos Gu’s fabulous costume during Halloween week definitely needs a shout-out, too

Oh! And who could forget when none other than Nessa Jenkins made a surprise cameo during the live final?

Way back in January, the nation’s jaws hit the floor when The Traitors competitor Diane Carson dropped three little words

Speaking of “hitting the floor” (sorry, Alison!)

Yes, Alison Hammond continued to bring us an endless list of joyful moments in 2024, including this epic reunion with Ryan Gosling and an unfortunate (though, apparently, deliberate!) choice of words

Some more of 2024’s most unintentionally hilarious celebrity interview moments came when Jordan North tried to explain the concept of a chip butty to Billie Eilish…

…Amelia Dimoldenberg struggled to get on the same wavelength as Sabrina Carpenter…

…Paul Mescal seemingly knew less about himself than one of his super-fans…

…and Miriam Margolyes made her feelings on grown-up Harry Potter fans abundantly clear

Meanwhile, the return of Celebrity Big Brother gave us this extremely sincere apology from Lauren Simon and Louis Walsh (and some excellent reactions from the rest of the house)…

…And Sharon Osbourne more than lived up to her reputation in the house, delivering this staggering takedown of Simon Cowell, The X Factor and TV talent shows in general

The regular Big Brother house also opened its doors for its second run of the ITV era – giving us this priceless moment

BBC News’ most viral star Maryam Moshiri continued to deliver…

…and deliver…

…and deliver

Hugh Grant turned on the charm at an otherwise uneventful Baftas

While this outtake from Hannah Waddingham at the Oliviers certainly delivered on laughs

Hannah also went viral at the TV Baftas for her hilarious reaction to losing an award to Strictly Come Dancing (that’s a secret flask in her bracelet, by the way)

Every second of this Joe Lycett speech from the same night is just excellent

The Bridgerton cast took us all behind the scenes of season three – including this impromptu dance party

While Nicola Coughlan also pranked co-star Luke Newton in a big way

Every moment of the Wicked press tour was a pretty wild ride, but we’ll always be holding space for this clip in particular

To promote the film, Ariana Grande made another epic appearance on Saturday Night Live – and while it’s hard to narrow her efforts down to just one clip, we think this one is still our favourite

Another of Ariana’s glorious SNL moments fell earlier in the season, during which even she and Bowen Yang struggled to hold in their laughs

And finally – let’s end on this delightful clip of Jake Grealish (fingers crossed he has a bit more luck with confetti on New Year’s Eve, eh?)
