How far are you willing to go to get the shredded abs of a superhero? Jake Gyllenhaal might just have set the bar—rather, the punch—for extreme workouts. In a recent Instagram escapade, Gyllenhaal, preparing for his role as a UFC fighter in the movie Road House willingly took 40 quick-fire punches to the stomach. Because that’s what you do apparently to the torso of a cheese grater. While he seemed to take it in stride, joking about the rather visceral aftermath, the clip certainly raises eyebrows and, perhaps, concerns.
At best the internet, and TikTok and Instagram, are an exaggeration. At w ..read more

“Of all modes of transport, the train is perhaps the best aid to thought,” British author, Alain de Botton, wrote in his essay collection The Art of Travel. His musings on the peculiarities and particulars of travelling reframe migration through transitory spaces as gateways to the imagination.
Moncler has long understood the power these ephemeral environments have in fuelling expeditions. In a liminal space designed to carry you away, the cacophony of coming and going offers a glimpse at what’s ..read more

There’s no business like show business. And there’s no place in the world where the film industry shines more brightly than the seaside town of Cannes on the French Riviera.

It’s always the quiet achievers, or those that started out as niche exercises in television, that end up being the most impactful. Cases in point, Succession. The OA. The Bear. Severance. And you can now add Baby Reindeer on Netflix to that list too.
It all begins in a pub, too. Perhaps that familiar setting is what makes what comes next become so unsettling.
When Donny Dunn, a portrayal by Richard Gadd, a struggling comedian, serves a disheveled woman named Martha a complimentary cup of tea, he inadvertently sets the stage for a chilling saga of obsession and mental unraveling.
Martha, playe ..read more

Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs’ dynamic tight end, is not only a force on the football field but also a standout figure in the world of fashion. His recent appearance at Coachella, where he attended alongside partner Taylor Swift, has hammered home just how good he is at off-field fits.
Where plenty of other famous and semi-famous folks who attended the first weekend of the flailing festival (tickets had still not sold out days prior to the event starting) tried to stand out by wearing the same generic “farshion” of ironic jorts or something completely impractical, Kelce kept it real.

There’s nothing quite like the validation of strangers on the internet to make you feel better after a break up and it seems this cliched piece of philosophy is as true for celebrities, specifically Bad Bunny, as it is for 19-year-olds.
To catch you up to speed in case you’re not immersed in the sticky ins and outs of mid-tier famous people, Bad Bunny was at one point in time apparently dating Kendall Jenner. It was such true love the ..read more
